Westminster welcomes new city administrator Barbara Matthews
Westminster welcomes new city administrator Barbara Matthews
Jan. 4, 2017 by Jon Kelvey
Westminster has a new city administrator in Barbara
Matthews, a local-government professional with 30 years of experience in cities
from Missouri to Maryland, most recently a 3 1/2-year stint as the city manager
of Rockville. Wednesday was her second day in Westminster's administrative offices
at 56 W. Main St.
"Right now, I think my focus is just getting to know
the staff, getting to know the community," Matthews said. "Over the
next two weeks, I will be spending some time with each of the department
directors, learning about what they do, going out into the community, seeing
some of the facilities and seeing some of the projects that we have going
on."
Rockville aside, Matthews has spent most of her career
managing city governments about the size of Westminster and said she enjoys
communities that are both historic and continue to evolve and change with the
times.

Marylanders well represented in national African-American museum
Marylanders well represented in national African-American
museum
By Donna Owens for the Baltimore Sun October 28, 2016 http://www.baltimoresun.com/entertainment/arts/bs-lt-smithsonian-maryland-contributions-20161228-story.html
[…]
The Smithsonian's 19th museum, unveiled on the National Mall
in September, boldly defies such false notions. Banneker, born near what's now
Ellicott City, is among dozens of Marylanders and Baltimoreans represented in a
collection of approximately 40,000 artifacts — some 3,000 of which are now on
display.
Objects of local origin include a stone slave auction block
from Hagerstown; a pinback button from the Baltimore Elite Giants, a Negro
Leagues baseball team; and colorful entertainment placards produced by
Baltimore's Globe Poster Printing Corp.
A charred rope evokes the 1931 lynching of Matthew Williams
in Salisbury. An oyster bucket from Chesapeake Bay waterman Ira Wright helps
chronicle the region's seafood industry. An antique paper cutter from the
Baltimore Afro-American newspaper, founded in 1892, was donated by current
publisher John "Jake" Oliver.
"Countless African-Americans from Baltimore and
throughout Maryland have distinguished themselves, and contributed to our great
nation over the centuries," said Robert L. Wilkins, author of the new book
"Long Road to Hard Truth: The 100-Year Mission to Create the National
Museum of African American History and Culture." "And rightfully,
their impact is on prominent display."

“Learn from past when deciding fate of old school buildings
- The contentious history of education in Carroll County,” Eagle Archives By
Kevin E. Dayhoff, Sunday, November 18, 2015
Recently, on Facebook, “Carroll Unite,” remarked: “Without
getting into whether schools should have been closed or not, we now find
ourselves as a county not finding the savings the commissioners thought would
so surely come by closing schools. While the schools may be spending less, now
there is the burden of what to do with three empty properties.
"Our thought: The county commissioners should have had a more
frank and detailed discussion about what would happen to the three properties
once the schools were closed PRIOR to forcing the board's hand in the closings.
Some of that discussion should have taken place with Guthrie and the BOE.
Again, our commissioners failed to plan ahead appropriately."
To which I added:
Hopefully - this might be of interest…
“Learn from past when deciding fate of old school buildings
- The contentious history of education in Carroll County,” Eagle Archives By
Kevin E. Dayhoff, Sunday, November 18, 2015 http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/carroll/westminster/ph-ce-archives-educat-1115-20151111-story.html
In the past year or so, the local news has dined on a steady
diet of discussion and acrimony over various education issues in Carroll
County. If you think that our present day public discourse is interesting;
researching the contentious history of education in Carroll County is an
historian’s dream.
[…]
But it is at times like this that one wonders why old school
buildings on college campuses are respected, revered and often saved with great
pride; yet older public school buildings, that many taxpayers made huge
sacrifices to pay for through hard-earned taxpayer dollars and bake sales, are
simply discarded by the government like used candy wrappers after it is no
longer convenient to use and maintain them.
Generations upon generations will be sad if the old 1936
Westminster High School building is closed. Especially because in the past,
Local and state government have developed a horrific reputation of demolishing
old historic public structures by incompetence and willful neglect. (Then
again, in recent years, under the current county staff leadership, there are
examples in the county of successful adaptive re-use of the old structures.)
It is simply unconscionable to allow a building that was
once the vibrant social, emotional and economic center of a community to simply
be allowed to die and rot in the middle of that community. Yet public officials
do it all the time. I guess they can’t see it from their house.
One can only hope that if old historic public buildings are
to be closed that concurrent conversations are taking place to re-use the
structures for the benefit of the greater community. It is simply a violation
of the public trust to simply allow the buildings to painfully crumble before
our eyes.

Mike Pence To Place His Hand On 2 Chronicles 7:14 When He Takes The Oath
Governor Mike Pence made headlines when, in the lead-up to
election night, he referenced the Biblical passage 2 Chronicles, 7:14. "So,
I encourage you. Remember, what’s been true for thousands of years is still
true today," Pence said back in October. "That if His people who are
called by His name will humble themselves and pray, He will hear from heaven,
and He – as He’s always done before – He will heal our land. One nation, under
God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.”

“Dayhoff: A German POW camp was located on site of Wakefield Valley golf course during WWII”
“Time Flies,” by Kevin E. Dayhoff January 13, 2017
As far back as 1960s, the idea of building houses in Wakefield
Valley has been the topic of divisive and acrimonious debate in our community.
Especially since the sprawling development, currently located in the valley,
sits on what was once the location of some Carroll County’s best farmland. The
current houses next to the proposed 53-house development were built many years
ago in spite of bitter opposition from the local community.
[…]
“Dayhoff: A German POW camp was located on the Wakefield
Valley Golf Course during WWII.” Sunday, January 15, 2017 Time Flies, by Kevin
Dayhoff,
This coming Tuesday, January 17, the use of German POWs to
do farm work in Carroll County during World War II, will be the topic of the
Historical Society of Carroll County’s popular Box Lunch Talk series.
“During World War II, American farms and factories faced a
labor shortage. One little- known solution to the problem was the use of German
prisoners of war,” according to Historical Society.
[…]
As an aside, this same golf course property is currently in
the news. Recently several folks have asked about the background to the current
discussions about a recent proposal to build 53 houses on a portion of the now
defunct Wakefield Valley Golf Course.

saying.
The Box lunch Talk was well attended. 150 folks came to hear
an excellent and insightful presentation by Jim Shriver. Another great program

“America's Long-Overdue Opioid Revolution Is Finally Here” -
Thanks to advances in neuroscience, researchers are beginning to disentangle
powerful pain relief from addiction, overdose and death
By Jon Kelvey, smithsonian.com, January 13, 2017
"The result 'could be a substantial advance in opioid
pharmacotherapy,' Soergel and his colleagues reported in the journal PAIN in
June of that year. ... This could be the first in what you might think of as a
new class of opioids,' says Violin.
"And the truth is, it’s about time."

Katie Nash loses Frederick Co. Md. Public Schools’ social media job a week after being in Twitter spotlight

Says more abt FCPS than Nash: Nash loses FCPS social media
job wk after being in Twitter spotlight
My bar of amazement has been moved. This is nuts. Says more
about FCPS than Katie Nash.
Katie and I wrote for the same magazine many years ago. I do
not know her well, but what I do know leads me to believe that she is an
exceptional person. This situation really-really casts the FCPS in an
unflattering light. It is mickey-mouse crap like this that promotes a
perception that the best and the brightest need not apply for work with local
government. I know many of the best and the brightest in local government and
privately they struggle with the byzantine intrigues and indecipherable lack of
common sense that has become "local government."
……
I also run several social media sites for some high
visibility and high profile organizations in the community. We all know the
perils of unintended consequences. We all know to stay as clear as possible
from a tweet or a post that could possibly be misunderstood. All my inquiries
indicate that no one was offended, including the student. It opened a great, if
not fun, dialogue, And if the powers to be found the post inconsistent with
established standards, then use it as a teaching moment and move on. The folks
I work for have taken down posts before. Whatever. Katie does not have mean
bone in her body. I know full well that adjectives are not persuasive speech -
but "Surreal," is the best adjective I have seen in this discussion
yet. I think this says more about FCPS than it does about Katie. Thank you.

Frederick County Public Schools has fired Katie Nash, an
employee who stirred up attention for how she ran the district’s Twitter feed
last week, she said.
Michael Doerrer, a
district spokesman, said Nash was no longer employed with the school system,
but he couldn’t comment on the circumstances.
Nash started working
as the web experience coordinator in November. Among her responsibilities was
to run the district’s social media accounts. Her salary was $44,066.
On Jan. 5, a student
tweeted to the Twitter account, @FCPSMaryland, asking schools to close
“tammarow.”
Nash wrote in response
from the school Twitter feed: “But then how would you learn how to spell
‘tomorrow?’ :)”
The response from
Nash’s FCPS tweet garnered more than 1,000 retweets and 1,000 likes and she
became the subject of a hashtag, #KatiefromFCPS. And later #freekatie also
appeared in students’ Twitter feeds after a report from local TV station
WHAG-TV that Twitter access had been taken away from her.

I sat down with Republican alderman candidate Katie Nash
recently to discuss her campaign. Katie finished second in the Republican
primary and interestingly, received 145 less votes than alderman candidate
Derek Shackelford, who finished sixth in the Democratic primary and did not
advance to the general election.
Katie told me it was a year ago she decided to run for
alderman and that she decided to run because she wanted to see a nonpartisan
city election because she feels issues at the local level are nonpartisan.
She told me she grew up in Baltimore County and graduated
from Hood College, where she also received her MBA in 2008. For, the past three
years, she has worked for a defense contractor, located in Frederick, as a
program manager.
