Kevin Dayhoff greeted me with a quick smile and a familiar “How’s your behavior?” as he peered from behind his computer screen as I entered the Off Track Art gallery at 11 Liberty St. in downtown Westminster last week for an interview.

He was a collage artist at work. However, it was not the traditional cluttered scene of an artist’s studio. There was no easel, piles of images and collage materials, an array of glues or even a palette plate of paint daubs sitting on top of boxes of art supplies. His canvas was his computer screen, and he was trying to get an image to paste properly into a collage.

The gallery is wonderful display of the work of 14 other artists. They all belong in an artists’ cooperative, Off Track Art, situated alongside the railroad tracks in the center of town at Main and Liberty streets.

Dayhoff is a lifelong Carroll County artist. A native of Westminster, he has had a wide range of experience and interests. He has been a landscaper, artist, writer and even the local town mayor.

He inherited his art talent from his parents. His father was an artist-painter-cabinetmaker. His mother is a culinary artist. In 1958, his interest in art surfaced when he was only five years old. People took a special interest in his drawing. His mother encouraged him draw a pirate when he was 5 and entered it into a drawing contest.

All through Carroll County Public Schools, Dayhoff drew, created collages, and wrote short stories. He was the boy sports editor for the Westminster High School yearbook and collaged many of the photographs in the 1971 yearbook – the year he graduated. In addition, Dayhoff studied photography in the 1960s in 4-H. Later, as a landscape designer, he took photographs of the properties and expanded that into his artwork.

When asked about what it was like to grow up an artist in Carroll County, Dayhoff has nothing but praise.

“There is no better place to be an artist than Carroll County. I have rarely met disapproval, only encouragement,” he said.

The arrival of the spacecraft in Westminster

“The arrival of the spacecraft behind Willis Street in Westminster” by Kevin Dayhoff November 25, 2009

It was the night before Thanksgiving in 2009 when it happened.

When the spacecraft first landed at the old Westminster Playground; no one, at first, quite knew what to do…

Crickey, folks were flummoxed.

This picture was captured by happenstance and shows homes along the otherwise quiet, tree-lined, and bucolic Willis Street in Westminster, to be silhouetted by the bright landing lights of the craft.

Was it an attack by Cylons? Or perhaps it was an invasion of intergalactic Velociraptors

Oh no…

Wait a minute. It’s. It’s. Holy @!@$%^$$%...

We’ve suspected all along that “they” are among us.

Various folks have had dreams of android cattle. Could this be the beginning of the attack of the chrome toasters?

Persons around town have appeared to have siren Cylon tendencies, in which it has been suspected that a Six copy has been downloaded into their bodies.

They are seductive and they look the part and have the correct vocabulary, but there is no there – there and the results are hollow.

They were first suspected to have landed sometime in May 2005. Some do a great job with press releases.

It was a sensational story but only maintained a fugacious claim on the public's attention; as if it happened on a pair of fast chucks.

Barack Obama for change

Because that is all you will have left when he’s done.

June 24, 2008 - - The base idea for this image was passed on to me in an email from “CJ.”

I guess it resonated with me as the presumptive Democrat nominee for president’s conversation so far about economics and taxation is a major concern for me as I ponder the merits of his candidacy of the Oval Office.

At my advanced age I can easily recognize political silliness when I see it and I refuse to be distracted.

Barack Obama appears to be an honorable man who wants to be president and I admire him for his accomplishments.

My heart and prayers go out to him and his family when I hear or read the vicious personal attacks over drivel that ultimately I really don’t give a rat’s backside over. It’s all so boring and an unnecessary distraction of high chair food fight proportions.

I don’t really care what Rev. Wright has said or when he said it. I don’t care about what Senator Obama’s wife said or when she said it.

I’m not fooled by the recent marketing makeover with his appearance on People magazine or Mrs. Obama’s chattiness on “The View.” I have no interest in voting “for the friendly guy next door” to be president.

I care about issues such as who is going to protect us from foreign aggressors. I care about national defense.

I care about the economy. I care about the class warfare being promoted, disguised as taxation policy.

I care about the deleterious affects of our nation’s lack of a coherent energy independence policy.

I care about who has the experience necessary to be president.

I care about who is going to appoint the next several Supreme Court justices.

If I were to have a choice between “a third term for the Bush Administration” or “Jimmy Carter’s second”; I’ll take “Bush’s third term” in a nanosecond.

Although I realize that Republican presumptive presidential nominee John McCain is certainly no George W. Bush and I have not, as yet mistaken Senator Obama for President Jimmy Carter…

Anyway - I played with the base idea for the image; re-arranged it and added to it and voila.

Please cut and paste this image and distribute it widely…

Main Street businesses decry public safety isues

2009-11-25T06:11:00.003-05:00

Westminster Eagle Westminster city council report:

Main Street businesses decry public safety issues

The use of surveillance cameras to be investigated

November 23, 2009 By Kevin Dayhoff

http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2009/11/main-street-businesses-decry-public.html

The number one topic of recent discussions with downtown Westminster businesses was public safety, say Westminster officials.

The discussion and feedback come at a time when the flagging national economy continues to hurt local businesses and the city budget remains in dire straights.

Westminster Mayor Kevin Utz presented the Common Council with a number of recommendations that resulted from five Main Street roundtable discussions held by Westminster officials in the last two months.

The feedback from the Westminster Main Street businesses was the highlight the Westminster mayor and Common Council meeting last Monday.

“We have asked 35 businesses to attend five Main Street Roundtables over the past two months and I would like to summarize the discussions and put forth a series of recommendations for your consideration,” said Utz.

Utz then comprehensively reviewed a summary of the business roundtable findings and four recommendations.

A copy of the summary was given to the Westminster Eagle by Westminster city administrator Marge Wolf.

It reveals that the “business owners (have) requested more police presence, particularly when the stores are closing for the evening. The businesses owners would like to partner with the police department, reporting questionable activities and observations.”

“We need to have our residents and citizens feel comfortable being on Main Street,” said Utz as council members looked-on and nodded in approval.

As a result: “An officer has been assigned to patrol the Main Street area from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Additional officers will be assigned to patrol the area when businesses close.

“In addition, the (Westminster Police Department) will develop strategies to familiarize the merchants with both Command staff and patrol officers and will investigate the use of camera in strategic locations to assist the patrol officers,” Utz read from the report.

In a related problem, Utz noted that “The City of Westminster is also the County Seat for Carroll County and as such provides a wide range of social services in our town.

“This fact, coupled with the fact that the churches in the area are very magnanimous in providing additional services to this client group, results in groups of clients congregating in public areas.”

The recommendation offered at the meeting was that the “Mayor will convene a Roundtable with area church representatives to discuss possible solutions to this problem.”

Business owners also said at the roundtable discussions that many of the local shopkeepers “are not the property owners and, as group, they feel the landlords do not maintain the properties to even code standards.

“The rents are not affordable for most small businesses and the landlords are not willing to work with small businesses. Small businesses have special funding needs and need special assistance. The business owners supported the rental licensing of apartments as an avenue to improving properties to code standards.”

It was recommended that the city initiate “a revolving loan program … to provide low-interest loans to new businesses or businesses expanding in the Main Street area.”

The program would be undertaken by the Westminster Town Center Corporation, an organization developed a number of years ago to advance business interests in the city.

In addition it was recommended that city officials “Continue the work on the more stringent building maintenance code and maintain the timetable for implementation on July I, 2010.

“The Code Enforcement Officer will focus on the Main Street area in a concentrated effort to maintain not only the appearance but the health and safety standards in our Code.”

Marketing the downtown businesses was also the focus of concern: “The Roundtable participants offered a number of suggestions for increased activity on Main Street, including additional activities and events.

“The need for a solid marketing plan to promote the Westminster image was supported by a number of the participants.”

It was recommended that the city “Fund a marketing study for Main Street and consolidate our various promotional budget items into one line item to fund those marketing activities. Develop one brand and one coherent message to promote our downtown.”

It was not discussed at the meeting how the “marketing study” would be funded or whether or not the study would be done in-house or if an outside agency might be hired to do the job.

The final recommendation was that city officials “Continue the Main Street Roundtables on a monthly basis. Convene additional Roundtables with the property owners and church representatives to discuss various concerns expressed by the business owners.

“Continue to pursue the development of the Route 27 Corridor, former Westminster Inn, Stocksdale property and former Ain't that a Frame location to jumpstart the Main Street area and provide a destination for visitors and tourists.”

Toohey's departure stirs reactions By Bryan P. Sears

2009-11-25T05:50:00.002-05:00

Under most circumstances, the changing of a government spokesman, even at a high profile agency like a police department, would barely register as a blip on the public awareness meter.

But reaction from both the public and media professionals to the announcement of the departure of Bill Toohey after 13 years as Baltimore County police spokesman was swift.

Childhood Holidays

With its rich tradition of Mardi Gras, I must report it was the only holiday publicly celebrated. In my New Orleans childhood, while there were balls in the weeks before Fat Tuesday, attendance was limited to Krewe (club) members. Things really came apart the weekend before Ash Wednesday when out-of-towners poured through the railroad stations; air travel was still in the future. But Thanksgiving couldn’t be celebrated in a more subdued manner.

So, the current aldermen overrode a veto by Mayor Jeff Holtzinger on the city’s Comprehensive Plan. Specifically, the Board of Aldermen voted to approve it. Mayor Holtzinger vetoed the plan, citing the approximately 1,100 acres intended for development in the future may not have future water and sewer capacities. Thus, the mayor doesn’t want to mislead those property owners by having them think their parcels could be developed.

The many faces of Bill Moyers

The many faces of Bill Moyers http://tinyurl.com/yjdj2sa Click here for a larger image: http://twitpic.com/qunnw

November 23, 2009 by Kevin Dayhoff

It’s a great day in American, “Bill Moyers is leaving weekly television.”

Yes, that’s right, Mr. Moyers, the liberal hypocritical smug Prince of thug-journalism who raised concepts such as situational ethics and moral relativism to a high art form, will be leaving public television on April 30, 2010, according to a recent item in the New York Times by Elizabeth Jensen in her “Media Decoder” column.

“Mr. Moyers said he had been planning for some time to retire the program on Dec. 25, but was asked by PBS to raise the funds to continue through April, which he did,” writes Ms. Jensen.

The “program” to which she is referring is “Bill Moyers Journal,” which began in April 2007. It is a weekly no-holds-barred advocacy program on the Public Broadcasting System for the liberal agenda in America.

According to Ms. Jensen, Mr. Moyers said, that his program has recently been having a “good run of it … so I feel it’s time.” He said he was not quitting television work, although he has no new projects planned.

No word as to whether or not he will be taking a position in the administration of Venezuelan President Hug Chavez, although Mr. Moyers is well qualified to work with heads of state.

Our younger readers may not be aware that Mr. Moyers, who was born on June 5, 1934, first distinguished himself on the national stage as the White House press secretary for President Lyndon Baines Johnson from 1965 to 1967.

Mr. Moyers and President Johnson shared a long history of working together. Mr. Moyers had interned for then-Senator Johnson. In addition to several positions as a print media journalist for several newspapers in Texas, he also worked in the mid-1950s at KTBC radio and television stations, which were owned by Lady Bird Johnson.

It is ironic to note that Mr. Moyers is an ordained minister; when one considers the course, blunt, if not profane behavior that historians have characterized President Johnson’s rise and maintenance of power.

Mr. Moyers first came to Washington to work in the administration of President Kennedy in various capacities in the newly formed Peace Corps.

In an April 3, 1966 article in the New York Times by Patrick Anderson, “No. 2 Texan in the White House,” Mr. Moyers explained his relationship with President Johnson as “I work for him despite his faults and he lets me work for him despite my deficiencies.”

His quote from 1966 may have been the only hint at humanity he may have ever had in a career that has witnessed him, in his later years, become unbearably preachy, condescending, boorish, and blinded by his politically ideology, which has tarnished his conflicted and complicated legacy.

For every mean-spirited thing I have to say about Mr. Moyers, I have a half-dozen much nastier remarks for which I was held back by my shriveled but nevertheless functional sense of decency.

In a much-touted dust-up between Mr. Moyers and Fox News Channel personality, Bill O’Reilly in April 2007; Mr. O’Reilly may have said it best:

“I do know that Moyers has, for years, been heavily involved with people like George Soros and the far left. Yet PBS is paying him to produce documentaries that are purported to be "objective." Bill Moyers is not objective, has a problem with the truth, and should no longer be receiving taxpayer money. And that is the truth.”

This after Fox News aired a tape in which Mr. Moyers said: “The FOX News, the talk radio, The Weekly Standard have not only mongered for war along with the administration, not only embraced the administration's policies because they were "conservative", including going to war, but also mounted a slime machine to discredit any journalist who dared to stand against the official view of reality.”

Of course, since President Obama has taken office and has continued the war efforts, for which Mr. Moyers was so critical during the Bush Administration years – now Mr. Moyers seems to have forgotten that we remain at war.

This, in spite of campaign promises from President Obama that once in office, he would withdrawal American troops out of Iraq quickly and re-invent our efforts in Afghanistan.

Funny how that works.

On March 9, 2009, Bernie Goldberg said in an interview with Mr. O’Reilly about Mr. Goldberg’s book, “A Slobbering Love Affair,” that Mr. Moyers is among the top five “five worst offenders in the mainstream media.”

“No. 4 is Bill Moyers because he represents the most elite wing of the most liberal elite media. Bill Moyers is a true believer who these days is posing as a journalist. He's very civil and highbrow to an extent, but also despises conservatives.

“During the Bush administration, he said that the right-wing wrecking crews in government, right-wing wrecking crews were deliberately, intentionally, trying to destroy the United States of America. Really, Bill? I mean, right wing wrecking crews and the government are deliberately trying to destroy America? And he's on PBS.”

Fortunately for America, Mr. Moyers days on PBS are numbered.

Good riddance. Don’t let the door hit you on the behind as you are leaving.

Perhaps the only thing that might be as equally good for American would be if Katie Couric would also retire. We can only wish.

Merry Christmas weeks early Bill Moyers Retiring From Weekly Television

Bill Moyers Retiring From Weekly Television

November 21, 2009 by Kevin Dayhoff

Merry Christmas weeks early. It’s a great day in American, “Bill Moyers is leaving weekly television.”

One of the best things about him leaving television is that his departure is scheduled to take place in just a few weeks. Yes, that’s right, Mr. Moyers, the hypocritical smug Prince of thug-journalism who raised concepts such as situational ethics and moral relativism to a high art form, will be leaving public television this Christmas.

Merry Christmas America. His last day ought to be declared a national day of celebration.

I guess with a Democratic administration in power; there is no need for him to continue leach off of taxpayer dollars and bash the Republicans and act-out on Bush Derangement Syndrome on the so-called politically-neutral Public Broadcasting System.

According to a Huffington Post news brief, “The New York Times' Elizabeth Jensen reports that the PBS newscaster is retiring from his Friday night program, ‘Bill Moyers Journal,’ on April 30, 2010. ‘Bill Moyers Journal’ launched in April 2007.”

And what journey onto hell his “Journal” was.

"I am 75 years old," Moyers told Jensen. "I feel it's time."

It’s really about time. It was “time” before he even began the program.

Good riddance. Don’t let the door hit you on the ass as you are leaving.

Perhaps the only thing that might be as equally good for American would be if Katie Couric would also retire. We can only wish.

Troopers Injured In Pursuit

2009-11-21T16:42:00.000-05:00

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 21, 2009

Troopers Injured In Pursuit

(Largo, MD) - Two Maryland state troopers are hospitalized and a suspect is in custody facing criminal charges after an extended pursuit this afternoon from Prince George’s County to Baltimore County along Interstate 95/495.

The suspect is a 30-year-old man believed to be from Pennsylvania. He is in State Police custody and is expected to be charged later tonight.

The injured troopers are identified as Trooper Michael O’Brien and Trooper Alphrin Norman, both of whom are assigned to road patrol duties at the College Park Barracks. The troopers are both listed in stable condition at the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center.

A motorist injured in the incident is identified as Ellen Sistare, of Mitchellville, Md. She is currently being treated at the Prince George’s Hospital Center.

The preliminary investigation indicates the following information.
Shortly after 10:30 a.m. today, multiple calls were received at the Maryland State Police College Park Barracks from motorists reporting an erratic driver who was operating in a dangerous manner on the inner loop of I-495 near Largo. The vehicle was described as a red Ford Mustang with Pennsylvania registration.

Trooper J. Deible, from the College Park Barracks took a stationary position in a crossover on the inner loop of I-495 at Rt. 201. He spotted the suspect vehicle traveling behind a Prince George’s County Sheriff’s Office vehicle. The driver, and sole occupant of the suspect vehicle, was flashing his headlights, apparently attempting to prompt the sheriff’s vehicle to move out of his way, but then made an unsafe lane change and swerved around the vehicle.

Trooper Deible activated his emergency equipment and attempted to stop the Mustang. Instead of stopping, the driver threw a pack of cigarettes from the convertible back onto the trooper’s car and continued to drive erratically, switching lanes and passing slower traffic on the shoulders of the interstate.

Continuing to weave through traffic and cut vehicles off, the suspect took Rt. 202 toward Bladensburg. Prince George’s County Police units entered the pursuit in this area. The suspect went back onto I-495 and eventually took the crossover north of Rt. 4 and started back north on the outer loop of I-495.

In the area of the Rt. 202, the preliminary investigation indicates the suspect swerved into the side of Trooper Norman’s marked patrol car and forced it into Trooper O’Brien’s marked patrol car. Both police cars spun out of control and crashed on either side of the interstate. In this same location, Ms. Sistare’s vehicle was struck, but it is not clear at this time which vehicle struck hers.

The suspect continued north onto I-95 north towards Baltimore. Maryland State Police and Prince George’s County Police continued in pursuit. State Police notified Maryland Transportation Authority Police of the approaching pursuit.

The pursuit continued into the Ft. McHenry Tunnel on I-95. Just after the toll plaza, Maryland Transportation Authority Police officers had deployed tire deflation devices. The suspect struck those devices, lost control of his car, and then struck two Prince George’s County Police patrol vehicles. Neither county officer was injured, but one of the patrol cars was disabled.

The suspect was taken into custody by police on the scene. He was transported to Bayview Hospital where he was examined and released about 3:00 p.m. Upon his release, troopers transported him back to the College Park Barrack for processing. Troopers will consult with the Prince George’s County State’s Attorney’s Office regarding charges, which are expected to be placed later tonight.

The investigation is continuing.

B P Sears: Baltimore Co Salary advisory board violated Open Meetings Act

2009-11-21T04:15:00.004-05:00

Portion of discussion on raises should have been public, senior official said By Bryan P. Sears bsears@patuxent.com Posted 11/20/09

A salary advisory board violated the state Open Meetings Act, a senior county official said today.

The Baltimore County Personnel and Salary Advisory Board met Nov. 18 to recommend pay increases for the county executive and members of the County Council but did not open to the public an earlier unannounced meeting during which the particulars of their recommendations were discussed.

County Administrative Officer Fred Homan acknowledged in a brief phone call made to a reporter late Friday afternoon that the board violated the act by not opening the unannounced meeting.

“We do believe that, in fact, they did (violate the law) and we’re going to institute some training,” Homan said.

The county Office of Law began a review of the lawfulness of not making public the unannounced meeting after Patuxent Publishing Co., publisher of this Web site, raised questions with a county attorney.

Uniformed squirrel leader returns, makes demands

10-68: OMG! 10-15 in progress - - The squirrels have returned – in force. There are making demands. 10-10 with a deranged 10-96 former mayor and a marauding band of angry squirrels.

For the story so far:

This is a peanut butter emergency

This not a drill.

This is a peanut butter emergency. Call 911.

Kevin Dayhoff September 27, 2009

(I wonder what would happen if I called the Westminster Police Department? Do you think they deliver emergency rations of peanut butter?)

The Grammy: “I thought that peanut butter jar was for the squirrels!”

10-96 Mayor: “There is still a peanut butter emergency in my household. I put the jar you gave us for the squirrels out back and then when I discovered that we had the peanut butter emergency, I promptly went out back and wrestled the jar away from the squirrels and licked the jar clean myself. The squirrels are not amused and have threatened to call the police. I gave them Brenda Roper's phone number. Stay tuned as the drama here continues to unfold.”
