[Chat] the 33rd street Giant aka Store (0303)
Last week my mother decided to go to the Giant on 33rd street. while shopping she was approached by two different people asking for money. She went to customer service to ask to speak with a manager and she was not only ignored but treated rudely. Since then I have filed a complant via the Giant Food website ( www.giantfood.com ) Has anyone who else filed complaints? Its sad that when it first opened it was a nice place to go shopping but then went drastically down hill in less than a year.

[Chat] Anyone who may have been born in Puerto Rico
I came upon this bit of info last night and found it on the AP website. The Gov't of Puerto Rico passed a law stating that any one who was born on the island and issued a birthcertificate on the island, that persons birth certifucate is null and void and must be issued a new one on or after July 1st 2010. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100227/ap_on_go_ot/us_puerto_ricans_birth_certificates_6 I am very surprised that this has not made the major news outlets like CNN, FOX or MSNBC. Something like this will affect millions of people. Not only People living in Puerto Rico, but People who by chance were born there either because they are military dependants (as in my case) or because their parents were there due to work or some other reason. Until this hits the major networks, please inform anyone you may know who was born in Puerto Rico. also Thanks everyone for your suggestions regarding photo developing, when I find a place that is affordable I will send out the info.. much appreciated Logic is the cement of our civilization with which we ascend from chaos using reason as our guide.

[Chat] LOST CAT
A few days ago I posted regarding a cat that appears to have been lost (with Pictures). It is a long hair (maine coon looking) cat with a predominate black gray pattern on its back, and a mostly white uder belly. The cat also has a green and blue collar. I also asked around the neighborhood if they know of anyone who has lost or has mentioned someone who has lost a cat. Given the fact that it is very cold and windy, and also the fact that my husband and i can not take the cat in, we have decided today to take it to the SPCA in Hampden. I will check these forums again before we head out to the spca at 11am Logic is the cement of our civilization with which we ascend from chaos using reason as our guide.

Believe it or not, NO reaction from our elected and government personnel to my
Sunday rant about the contempt of court case concerning the abandoned house at
300 E Lorriane!
I'm now interested in how much tax revenue we have all lost from this house
continuing to be taxed at an owner occupied rate, when in fact, its been
completely abandoned since 2004, and the owner has been in contempt of court
for six months. Despite a $500 per day fine imposed last November, she was
allowed to pay property tax of just $650 in February: something is seriously
out of sync in the city government, or the owner knows the right people at City
Hall. Paul

[Chat] More dogs! RE: Fines, Dog Parks, etc.
As a dog owner, I am a firm believer that no matter how friendly your dog is, or how well trained she/he maybe. Your Dog should always be on a leash when taken out beyond your private property. No matter how well behaved, conditioned, trained your dog is, he/she is still an animal that can become unpredicable. I love my dog, and I know how well behaved and great he is with people and other animals. But he is an animal incapable of directly telling me or anyone else what he is thinking or what is upsetting him and gods only know what goes on in that little peanut head of his, and frankly I never want to take that chance if he decides to go nuts. And I agree with the previous comments that certain people should not be allowed to have dogs. Its because of iresponsible folks who let their dogs run unleashed (at manytimes un collared) and dont pick up after the dog messes, and that responsible dog owners like myself and others in this forum have to suffer for it.

Re: [Chat] YOU KNOW SPRING IS HERE AND SUMMER IS COMING
It is unfortunate that a Police Officer doing his duty can risk the city being sued because of the illegal antics of a few stupid idiots. Its sad that we live in a culture where the word Sue has mutated from an everyday noun into an instant verb. I have seen them during the summer going in allyways, zipping between traffic, endangering the lives of no only them selves (non of them that I have seen wear any armour or protective headgear) but of motorist and pedestrians alike. A part of me wants them to get an epiphany/common sense what have you and decide to stop or go to areas where they are allowed to use their bikes. Another part of me.. the Darkside of the force if you will wants a few of them to all crash into each other. God forbid if one or a few of those bikers crashed into an Ambulance or into a group of children. p.s. God forbid if anyone broke into my home and attempted to harm my family. I would never kill, but I would make their illegal entry into my home their worst mistake and nightmare. ...in theory Logic is the cement of our civilization with which we ascend from chaos using reason as our guide.

Re: [Chat] [Discussion] retractable dog leashes
GREAT ARTICLE! I'm going to pass it around to all my friends who have dogs. I have a dog, and one of the first things the worker at the SPCA told us is to never use one of those retractable leashes when walking our dog. Not only are they dangerous to the person, but also to the dog. I was told about instances where the walker of the dog would accidently let go or the spring mechanism would give, flying out of the person's hand and hitting the dog in the head causing it major injury or death. I use a regular leash (about 6ft long) with a built in handle. Besides regular leashes are more affordable then those fancy retractable ones.

[Chat] (no subject)
I wonder if I attended the same meeting because my memory of last nights events vary from those stated by Mrs. Floyd Joan Floyd wrote: Steve, please feel free to post this brief report: Last night, the Benefits District held its annual 'hearing' on the proposed budget for 2009-2010, which was passed out to those in attendance. The 'cash-strapped' and 'limited' Benefits District will ONLY be asking for an increase of 16% percent in surtax revenue over last year, when the increase was ONLY 18% over the prior year, according to 'Executive Director' David Hill, who is asking for $65,000+ for himself, not including benefits. The figures that were posted on screen, mentioned and handed out in paper format do not match your statement. Apparently, no one is suggesting a downward adjustment of the surtax rate to fit with current economic realities. You know perfectly well that any changes to any rates must bedone according to bylaws and that it is the City that finally decides, not the Benefits District Has there ever been a Benefits District budget hearing that was more poorly attended by the public? Not in my recollection. The staff, Board members and 'special guests' far outnumbered the 'regular folk.' Many of us regular folk, have lives. Many of us Regular folks like myself have jobs and in somecases have far commutes. I almost did not come to the meeting, I came directly from work. I did so , so I can get the information first hand and pass them on to my neighbors given that many of them due to previous obligations were unable to attend. One neighbor was unable to attend due to the fact she was out of state, and My own Mother was unable to attend because she has the flu. Supposedly the Board meeting to approve (rubber-stamp? ) this larger-than- ever surtax budget will take place on Tuesday, April 14th at 7:00 pm at the new Benefits District office on St. Paul Street. This meeting , like all meetings are posted on the website. I will certainly be there. When asked for verifiable qualifications for all voting Board members, including the address of the property owned, David Hill responded in a way that suggested he does not believe we 'regular folk' are entitled to that information. Again , were we at the same meeting? Mr. Hill stated that if anyone wanted to contact other members they can send an e-mail or call and it can be forwarded, and if those people wanted to respond they can do so. You made the suggestion that the persons personal e-mails and home addresses be posted on the site. Is the Mayor's personal home address on the Baltimore city website? ..no. In this day an age of identity theft and stalkers, if I was on the board I would not want my personal home address posted on a website where someone might find it and Gods know what could possibly happen. When asked what number of voting Board members is considered a quorum, and what number of votes is considered to be needed to approve a budget, 'President' Ron Griffin first declined to answer these basic questions, and quickly became very un-presidential in front of the staff, Board members, and 'regular folk' who were in attendance. Of all people .. You know for a fact that the question you asked is something related to the current law suit (brought by you) and that Mr. Griffin was in no position to respond given the litigation at hand. It seemed like you were backing him into a corner for a response you perfectly well know he could not have nor was he under the authority to respond to. Your question was not only unethical, but also shows in my eyes that you wanted to back him into a corner. Any lawyer would inform you of that. 'Regular folk' to Mr. Griffin: You are not the 'President' of a private organzation. You are the 'President' of the Board of a small local government. You don't get to keep this kind of information close to the vest. Regular Folk to Mrs. Floyd, you don't represent all of us regular folk, you especially do not represent me, my family or my friends. We can represent our selves individually, perfectly fine, thank you. And so it goes.

I’ve used it effectively in quantity with spearmint oil to deter mice. You need high concentrations. The amount required is very noticeable to the human nose. The fragrance dissipates quickly outdoors, and the larger rodents still go about their business. A bed of peppermint is a reasonable approach if you have an area that can be dedicated to its invasive habits. In combination with spearmint , it can help during the growing season. Neighbors used predator urine (available online and from several types of predators at Valley View Farms) to drive out a rodent infestation from their yard. Rodents emigrated to other yards, which simply spread the problem.. The correct way to use such a deterrent is to diligently bait the rodents until they are gone.

Thank you Wendy Greg. that was my Mom's package. I appreciate the neighborly diligence and thoughfulness I called the police to see if they sent someone to the house and they verified it to be true and mentioned that there is an investigation but could not say more on the topic. They suggested I , or my spouse be here since my mother has a language barrier regaridn English. I wonder if this guy who Greg followed is the same person who took some other packages. Thank you again :-) I have informed my mother that from now on all packages should be sent to my office.

So greg called the police and followed the guy to find him looking for packages on the 2700 block of St Paul. He went house to house. The police came and questioned him and let him go. Greg showed the officer the dumped package and the officer took it. The good news is that the officer is aware of who the person is, they just need to catch him in the act.

Re: [Chat] stolen packages from porch
Last October I ordered some items for a Halloween costume. According to USPS
they claimed it was delivered and signed for on a particular date. When I
checked online, the date and time it stated when it was signed and delivered
was the same time I was on the front porch with my spouse putting up Halloween
decorations. When I contacted the Post Office, telling them where I was on that
day and time,they changed their story stating it might still be on the truck.
I filed a report since it was insured, but as of today, still no word what so
ever. We always get mail meant for other address. Even address not even close
to our address. I personally think the mail carriers are not paying attention.
Luckily I can have all my packages sent to my office and I just take take them
home in my backpack. Which I have been doing so for things like large or
valuable items.

I am curious as to whether the stolen packages were actually delivered by
the US Postal Service, UPS or FedEx. Charles Village should not be a driver
release area for UPS meaning that a signature should be required for all
deliveries.
I personally choose to have internet purchases delivered to my office
because there will always be someone there during business hours
to accept them.
If the manpower were available a sting operation would probably help
the police apprehend those responsible for the thefts, which likely
are a federal offense.

Subject: [Chat] stolen packages from porch
Hello, neighbors,
I had a package stolen off our porch last week.
It seems like this has been happening to others
as well. I've appended a note from Dana Moore.
When I reorder the item, I'll ask for signature
delivery, or for it to be held somewhere.
The last time we had a package stolen from our
porch was a year ago December. I guess it's
the holidays!
I really ought to make a police report as well.
Thanks,
--Emil
Good morning everyone.
I received the following note last night from one of our neighbors.
Seems as though the old trick of following the mailman (or woman, or
FedEx guy/gal, or UPS gal/guy) and then picking packages placed
on porches has returned. Please be aware of the potential for lost
packages delivered and left on your porch.
If you are expecting a package to be delivered to your home and know
that you will not be there to receive it, consider asking that it be
held at the post (UPS, FedEx) office for you to pick up. Another
option might be to ask a neighbor to be on the lookout for deliveries
and to pick up your packages for you. Though not convenient for most
of us who are working, it might make sense to arrange to be at home on
the day a delivery is expected.
As always, if you see suspicious persons on your porch or that of your
neighbor, especially somebody dressed as Santa Claus or Rudolph, do
not hesitate to call 911 to report a suspicious person.
If you have other ideas on how to reduce the risk of becoming a victim
to this type of crime please send it to me by email. I'll share it
with the Charles Village email group.
Thanks.
Dana Moore

Re: [Chat] Fwd: MTA eliminates some bus and MARC train routes: Tell Us What You Think
Message contains attachments MTA eliminates some bus and MARC train routes: Tell Us What You Think.eml (8KB) I take the MARC train daily as part of my commute. (I work in Bethesda) What I find interesting is that the trains that they are cutting back, are trains they only have recently added due to constant requests from MARC customers. And in regards to Baltimore city Bus services... they need alot of serious revamping to do on certain lines. Buses never showing up when they are suppose to and when they do its several back to back or filled to like a sardine can, or in my case this morning, a Number 3 Bus just drove passed the bus stop I was at leaving 5 folks ith out away to get to their destination.(the Bus was empty) Because of it I missed my Morning train and was late for work...

Re: [Chat] exterminator?
When my husband and I first moved into our house, we had some unwelcomed guests of teh rodent kind. Our cat dealt with them, now we have two cats and there has been no sign of mice. Only during the fall when they (the mice) are looking for a place for food and warmth. Do we see one get killed by the cats. We have discovered this product (all natural) that discourages rodents and other animals from entering areas. SO far it seems to work. Here is a link to the product. http://www.bicwarehouse.com/repels-all-animal-repellent-238.html it also keeps away unwanted strays and other animals as well.
