February 13

The man on death row accused of killing eight-year-old Marciana Ringo has just been granted a new sentencing hearing by the Maryland Court of Appeals.

In the blotter, a 27-year-old man was stabbed in the back North of Patterson Park, and a Hopkins student was robbed of a laptop by a man with a kitchen knife while walking less than a mile away in Butcher's Hill.

It's really touching, the sacrifices police officers make for the public good.

Dan Rodericks is all like, LaFawn, get off the reefer.

jayneburnsSkip the Simpsons and tent your own fingers at the Scary-Mommy show: Jayne Miller willl be grilling Hamm re. the crime numbers controversy on tonight's 6 p.m. WBAL newscast. Meanwhile, fecund fomenter Doug Duncan jumped on the city crime issue with both feet on the Eddie Norris show, and scored the endorsement of top prosecutor Mrs. J., though she did concede that she still finds the mayor "cute."

With support like that: "Supporters say Dixon's survived ethics questions before"

Did you know? Maryland's law defining marriage as only being valid between a man and a woman went undramatically into effect 33 years ago.

Please, the Jayne Miller Hamm piece will be too short to have anythimng but sound bites from Hamm that will spin the story whichever way WBAL wants to hype it.

What I'd liek to see WBAL (or WJZ or WMAR) do is put the full video up the public to view and draw their own conclusions.

It all just visual glue for Cialis ads. What I'd like to see is a reformatting of the profit model of TV news entirely. I wouldn't mis-underestimate Jayne's ability. She's been around the block. My question is, how's it going to affect O'malley. I'm going to watch it then take my four-year-old to the Duncan thing and see just what kind of baby-kisser he is.

I just saw the Jayne Miller piece on WBAl and I thought it was pretty good. I almost thought that she might have gotten the idea for the story from some of the reports on this site. I hope she keeps on this story. What she reported was pretty egregious. I'd like to know how widespread it is. BTW, Hamm did not look good in his responses to Miller.

Ok, you can't tell me that wasn't great.
"Do you know if he died?"
"Do you know?"
"I'm asking if you know."

Now I'm off to the new museum to hear biscuithead Duncan tell the dark people what they need! So much free entertainment in one night!
