Frederick County Commissioner Election Issues Poll Results
The first MacRo Report Blog Poll is complete, and it shows some interesting results.
We asked our participants to give us their opinion of the one issue that they thought is the most important issue in our local election for the 5 seats on the Frederick County Board of County Commissioners. With 19 candidates in the running, which will be whittled down to ten in the September 14th primary, those who are out knocking on the doors are hearing it firsthand. So, how do our results differ from what the candidates are hearing? We’ll get to that in a moment.
As you can see from the chart on the right, by far the top two concerns of our participants are pretty much in line with major voter concerns on the national level: Taxes and Government Spending (38%) and Preserving Jobs in our Community (28%) … a total of 67%... http://www.macroreportblog.com/general/frederick-county-commissioner-election-issues-poll-results

July 27, 2010 "Two for the Road" by Farrell Keough
“This column may come as a shock to some, as it will be about Those People! In fact, it will not only be about Those People, but will actually promote a couple of Those People! I speak, of course, about Democrats.
Like it or not, they exist and live among us. Why they chose that particular ideology is indiscernible, but they have made their choice. And what’s more, they constitute a large portion of our voting public. To that end, there are two running for different offices that have piqued interest – Brad Young running for Frederick County Board of Education and Michael Kurtianyk running for Frederick Board of

Frederick County woman dead after altercation with State Police
A Frederick County woman has died after an altercation with State Police responding to a domestic disturbance in Libertytown.
Saturday, June 19 2010
By Kevin Dayhoff
The tranquility of a quiet sleepy town which straddles Liberty Road in eastern Frederick County was shaken on Thursday when a woman died in an altercation with Maryland State Police responding to a domestic disturbance.
An autopsy has revealed that Veronica Harding-Perkins, 46, of the 12,000 block of Main Street in Libertytown, Maryland, died of gunshot wounds, according to a police report. “Further tests are being conducted and additional results are pending. Additional details will not be released due to the ongoing investigation.”
Police say that at approximately 12:30 a.m. Thursday afternoon, Corporal Eric Corbin, an eight-year veteran of the State Police, along with a second trooper, was dispatched to the scene of a domestic disturbance involving a firearm. The second trooper involved is not being released by State Police because “he did not fire his agency issued weapon.”
The 911 cell phone call to the Frederick County Law Enforcement Center came from the deceased woman’s husband, Dean Perkins, 45.
When police arrived on the scene, Harding-Perkins, who was reported to have been armed with a semi-automatic pistol, refused to respond to several police requests for her to surrender.
As the incident unfolded, police attempted in to gain entry through the front door of the residence. “Knowing Harding-Perkins was armed with a loaded weapon, CPL Corbin took cover behind a soda machine located off of the front porch of the home.
“As he peered around the corner, Harding-Perkins was standing inside of her front door with her semi-automatic pistol pointed at the trooper. Fearing for his life, as well as the safety of others, CPL Corbin responded by firing his agency issued firearm,” police say.
At that time, Hardings-Perkins retreated back into her home and the two troopers backed off and immediately secured the area.
According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund’s 2009-year end report “responding to domestic disturbance calls proved to be particularly dangerous for America’s law enforcement officers during 2009…
“A total of 1,647 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty during the last 10 years, an average of one death every 53 hours or 165 per year… On average, more than 62,000 law enforcement officers are assaulted each year, resulting in some 21,000 injuries.”
Accordingly, police proceeded “on the side of caution, police secured the area and an evacuation was made of the adjacent residents.” Police report that at that time there was no clear evidence indicating Hardings-Perkins had been injured.
The Maryland State Police Special Tactical Assault Team Element team, the Frederick County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team, and the Hostage Recovery Team responded to the scene and tried to make contact with Harding-Perkins. “Again, police received no response,” said the police report.
Later, at approximately 5:45 a.m., the Special Tactical Assault Team Element entered the residence and Harding-Perkins was found lying on the dining room floor with a loaded semi-automatic pistol.
As the investigation into the incident continues, both state troopers who reported to the incident are on administrative leave.

Happy Days Are Here Again?
Chris Cavey
Tuesday evening I joined the Republican faithful gathered in Frederick at The Green Turtle to watch election results. While they were cheering the victory of Randy McClement, mayor-elect of Frederick City, I couldn’t help but think that perhaps the political pendulum crossed the apex and was now swinging the other way. Their way.
Looking Back Going Forward
Michael Kurtianyk
The results are in, and the voters have chosen Randy McClement over Jason Judd in the City of Frederick election. Before getting into the specifics, Congratulations are due both candidates for running a strong, civil race. Despite pressures from others, both men campaigned without slinging mud. Let’s hope the county races next year are run with the same decorum and respect.

Pulling the Plug on Maryland
Kevin E. Dayhoff
Word spread quickly through Maryland early Monday evening that the Black and Decker Manufacturing Company is “merging” with The Stanley Works. Black and Decker employees were notified by email at 4:30 P.M. of the $4.5 billion all-stock acquisition of the venerable old Maryland manufacturer.

Kuching, Malaysia – Being a relatively healthy male, I enjoy the company of women and learning the dating customs has been a challenge. Wandering around in my mid 50’s, yet thinking I am in my 20’s, I have met and carefully enjoyed many platonic associations.

Pushkin between the Polls
Roy Meachum
On this voting day in the city, I can almost envy Pushkin; the boy Pointer will sail through the whole democratic process unaffected. He might be inconvenienced by accompanying me to the basement of Evangelical Lutheran Church on East Church Street. Although his shank is long and his beard grizzled, he always finds admirers. No sweat.

Voting My Conscience
Steven R. Berryman
The City of Frederick elections are now upon us, so it’s time to get your voting strategy together. Those stuck at simply “voting the party line,” will be at a distinct disadvantage in our municipal election tomorrow.
On the Mayoral Race in Frederick…
Michael Kurtianyk
What an extremely cordial, civil race for mayor of the City of Frederick. This is a great breath of fresh air from the race four years ago.

Attack Politics
Roy Meachum
You may have missed the latest survey: a majority of Americans said they no longer have confidence in where their country is headed. As usual sixty-five percent disapprove of the performance by Congress. At the same time, the president’s personal rating held steady at 56 per cent – in the Wall Street Journal/NBC paid-for measurement of the national mood.
How Does Your City Grow?
Joe Charlebois
Mary, Mary quite contrary how does your city grow? Paraphrasing the old nursery rhyme gets to the point of what the future of Frederick County and its municipalities will face as it continues to grow. The quintessential issue – we as citizens of the city and/or county need to address – is how we will define growth over the next 20 to 30 thirty years.
Limbaugh, Freedom and The NFL
Derek Shackelford
Several weeks ago talk show host Rush Limbaugh garnered national headlines with his participation in an ownership group attempting to purchase the National Football League’s St. Louis Rams. Mr. Limbaugh was not going to be the majority owner just a partner in the ownership group.

How much is a TRILLION?
Bill Brosius
Kinda rolls nicely off the tongue, doesn’t it? Don’t know about you but I have been having a tough time getting my head around a trillion, let alone 10 trillion; much less 40 trillion. One trillion is 1,000,000,000,000. Put a dollar sign in front and you’re talking about unreal money.

Halloween and The Snallygaster

Surprises of a 26-Hour Trip
Tom McLaughlin
Doha, Qatar – What happens if you are a small country and have billions and billions of dollars located on top of the largest gas field in the world? Building the largest most modern commercial airline on the planet is one goal.
REVIEW: Dr. Jekyll and Four Mr. Hydes
Roy Meachum
You read the column’s head right. The Maryland Ensemble Theatre is retelling Robert Louis Stevenson classic story in playwright Jeffrey Hatcher’s version; no longer is a case of schizophrenia limited to a single individual. Mr. Hatcher took “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” and spread the latter’s evil among four actors, including a woman, Karen Paone.

Then There Are Five
Roy Meachum
Let me confess up front that I have been to no candidate forums and was fed stories that proved no more than flimsy rumors. This does not make me unusual in the community. What sets me apart from two-thirds of my fellow registered voters? I plan to hike over to the Evangelical Lutheran polling place next Tuesday.
Sanity: The Key to Self-Esteem
Nick Diaz
In my last article on developing sound math study habits, I referred to “procrastination” as ‘the thief of time.” I concluded that the issue of procrastination by students is not a simple one. Procrastination is a defense mechanism that protects students’ self-esteem.

4th of July at the Shamrock Restaurant
July 4, 2009
For the 4th of July my family and I went to the Shamrock Restaurant off Rte 15 in Thurmont, Frederick County, MD, for a delightful meal.
On an entire wall of the restaurant there was an American flag displayed. If I am not mistaken, it was identified as being 20 foot by 38 foot large.
