~~~~~

The Carroll County branch of the NAACP has announced that Chief Judge Bell will be the keynote speaker at the upcoming annual Freedom Fund banquet to be held April 9.

In 1996, Bell became the only active judge in the State to have served at least four years on all four levels of Maryland’s judiciary, and the first African-American to be named the state’s chief jurist.

Bell began his long career as an attorney with the law firm Piper and Marbury. He was first appointed to the bench in 1975 as a judge of the District Court of Maryland for Baltimore City, according to information from his office.

He next served as a judge for the Circuit Court for Baltimore City from 1980 until 1984. In that year, he was appointed judge to the Court of Special Appeals of Maryland and in 1991, Bell was appointed to the Court of Appeals of Maryland.

On October 23, 1996 then-Maryland Governor Parris Glendening, appointed him to the state’s highest court, Judge of the Court of Appeals.

Bell, who in his current role manages over 3,000 employees, and oversees the Maryland court system, lectures frequently at schools and community groups.

He was born in Rocky Mount, North Carolina on July 6, 1943 grew-up in Baltimore where he attended Dunbar High School.

In 1960, twelve Dunbar High School students entered a downtown Baltimore restaurant, were refused service and subsequently arrested and convicted for trespassing.

One of those students was a young Bell, who led an appeal of the verdict in a landmark civil rights case, Bell v. Maryland, which was eventually argued before the United States Supreme Court and brought an end to de facto racial segregation in Maryland.

Bell continued his education at Morgan State College, where he received his A.B. degree in 1966. He went on to Harvard University Law School where he received his J.D. in 1969.

The annual banquet will be held this year at Martin's Westminster on Friday, April 9, 2010, beginning 6:30 pm. Tickets for the banquet are $45.00. For more information contact Charlotte Brown (410) 861-7890, Jean Lewis (410) 861-6872, Bernard Jones, Sr. (410)-876-2358, or the Carroll County NAACP web site, http://ccnaacp7014.blogspot.com/

Murphy the “Don” in surprise bid for the Maryland Statehouse

Murphy makes a surprise announcement just after midnight on April 1, 2010 that he will run against former Maryland Governor Robert L. Ehrlich, who had just announced on March 30, 2010 that he will be seeking his old office back. http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2010/04/murphy-don-in-surprise-bid-for-maryland.html http://tinyurl.com/yexfeut http://kbetrue.livejournal.com/312008.html

April 1, 2010 by Kevin Dayhoff for Soundtrack

In a surprise announcement, former Maryland Delegate Donald E. Murphy (R) has announced that he will be running for governor of Maryland in the September 14, 2010 Republican Primary.

Many political insiders had speculated privately that Murphy, known as the “Don,” in political circles, may toss his hat in the ring.

Murphy, who is also known to have made recent trips to New Hampshire, is also rumored to be a presidential contender in 2012.

Recently, noted political analyst Joe Steffen wryly wrote, “Murphy told me last night that a potential run for governor on his part was ‘in the mix.’ As MD point man for the 2008 McCain Presidential campaign and Senior Advisor to MD GOP U.S. Senate candidate Dr. Eric Wargotz to go with his other credentials, Murphy undoubtedly has a set of...bona fides.

“While discussing a possible gubernatorial run, Don Murphy did joke, however, that he ‘didn’t want to split the Murphy (primary) vote,’ a reference to young GOP businessman and upstart candidate, Brian Murphy, who is already running for governor in the GOP primary,” continued Steffen.

“Who knows? Maybe an actual Ehrlich run will entice Don Murphy into the campaign, concerns over splitting the Murphy vote be damned,” wrote Steffen.

Opening shot across the bow…

Steffen noted, “Beyond then-Governor Ehrlich's 2006 taxpayer-dollar-spending-spree-for-votes, THAT brings us back to the libertarian leaning conservative Don Murphy, who when talking about Mr. Ehrlich in the context of being conservative with the tax dollars offered this priceless observation:

“‘Saying Bob Ehrlich is a fiscal conservative is like saying Ocean Gallery (http://oceangallery.com/) is an art museum.’

“That wasn't the beer and bravado talking - but it was the best line of the night. And, hey, isn't the best humor always rooted in the truth?”

Are you experienced?

Murphy is experienced and known to be comfortable in his own skin and in the political arena.

Murphy previously represented District 12A, which covered portions of Baltimore and Howard County Maryland in the Maryland General Assembly from January 1995 to January 2003.

He is a graduate of Andover High School in Linthicum Maryland and graduated from the University of Baltimore with a degree in real estate in 1983.

In recent years, Murphy has been affiliated with the lobbying firm of Genn & Murphy and is a well known and popular GOP Strategist and advisor to U.S. Senate Candidate Dr. Eric Wargotz of Maryland.

In 1994, Murphy defeated the House Majority Leader in a legislative district that had never elected a Republican, according to the Genn & Murphy web site.

While a member of the Maryland House of Delegates, Murphy was a member of the Judiciary Committee and the Civil Law & Procedure Subcommittee. He served as Deputy Minority Whip from 2002 until 2003. Murphy did not seek reelection in 2002.

The Gunn & Murphy web site also reveals “After his reelection in 1998, he became an unlikely advocate for Medical Marijuana legislation as a result of being approached by a Green Beret constituent who was dying of cancer.

“The passage of the Darrell Putman Compassionate Use Act in 2003 placed Mr. Murphy in exclusive company with substantial national media recognition.

“When The Washington Post, The Baltimore Sun and The Gazette listed their “winners and losers” for the Legislative Session, he was one of three, and the only non-incumbent legislator, named to the “winners” list in all three publications.”

“Murphy, a nationally-known campaign advisor, travels extensively at the request of candidates and focus groups who seek his advice,” according to his web site, Genn & Murphy.

Well-liked, well dressed and handsome.

The handsome, well-dressed Murphy is well-liked on both sides of the political aisle and many keen political observers, speaking on background noted, that he has the best chance of anyone to garner the vote in the General Election this November in the heavily Democrat cobalt-blue state of the Maryland.

“Murphy’s congeniality and work-ethic make him a favorite with members of both Maryland Legislative Houses controlled by Democrats,” notes his web site.

“During Mr. Murphy’s first term, the Guidebook of Maryland Legislators called him ‘the nicest Delegate in Annapolis.’ Near the end of his second term, the Montgomery Gazette concluded in its analysis of legislators that Mr. Murphy was unquestionably ‘liked by everyone,’” according to the Genn & Murphy web site.

“Mr. Murphy’s congeniality and work-ethic make him a favorite with members of both Maryland Legislative Houses controlled by Democrats, in addition to the new Republican Administration that has many of his former colleagues and friends in key policy and decision-maker roles,” notes the web site.

Most of the folks in Maryland tend to be more moderate

In a 2008 interview with MSNBC, Murphy, a political moderate, observed, “Most of the folks in Maryland tend to be more moderate,” said Don Murphy, who is the chairman of the Maryland delegation at the (Republican National) convention.”

The web site also notes that “Prior to running for office, Mr. Murphy held key positions in the commercial real estate field, including real estate analyst for Baltimore City’s Economic Development office and as Director of Leasing for a million square foot office and industrial park….”

Murphy is a life-long resident of Maryland with his wife, Gloria, who will be just as surprised as the “Don” and the rest of us that he is running for governor.

Then again, how could they have known – after all it is April Fools’ Day.

Services held for Patricia Anne “Patti” Battaglia, 56, of Catonsville

Services held for Patricia Anne “Patti” Battaglia, 56, of Catonsville http://tinyurl.com/yjxk5vv Click here for a larger image: http://twitpic.com/19yztb

March 20, 2010 by Kevin Dayhoff http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2010/03/services-held-for-patricia-anne-patti.html

Friends, family, loved ones, students, and fellow teachers crowded into Our Lady of Victory Church, 4414 Wilkens Ave, Catonsville, on Saturday to pay their last respects to Patricia Anne “Patti” Battaglia, 56, of Catonsville, a nationally known artist and teacher who died March 13 at home after an extended illness. Battaglia was born October 17, 1953.

After the service, she was buried at Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens, 200 East Padonia Rd, in Timonium.

She was well known in the Maryland – and Carroll County art community for her unique jewelry, collages, drawing, mixed media, and printmaking.

She participated in McDaniel College’s annual Common Ground on the Hill as an instructor since 1998.

One of her original collagraph prints is included in the Maryland Printmakers book housed in the Baltimore Museum of Art.

Battaglia attended the Community College of Baltimore County in Catonsville, before earning a Masters degree in Art Education from Towson University.

She was awarded Teacher of the Year, by the Maryland Art Education Association in 1994. She retired from teaching art in Howard County public schools 30 years, in October 2008. She taught elementary art for 16 of those years and middle school art for 14 years.

“Patti was one of a kind...we will all miss her so,” lamented Dr. Pam Zappardino of McDaniel College and Common Ground.

Susan Williamson of the Carroll Arts Council commented, “She was one of the most beautiful women I have ever met and her soul shone through those gorgeous eyes.”

In addition to her handcrafted jewelry and clothing, Battaglia was known affectionately as the “accessory queen.”

In an extensive interview with Stephanie Shapiro for the Baltimore Sun “This teacher of art is a work of art,” on October 3, 1996, Battaglia, whom Shapiro referred to as “A multimedia artist and confessed ‘clothesaholic,” said, “They don't call me the accessory queen for nothing. I collect everything from antique clothes and coats…”

Walt Michael, executive director and Founder of Common Ground, said “Patti was a stellar member of the art faculty at Common Ground on the Hill from 1998 until just last year.

“Patti's innate talents and artistic flare will be sorely missed by the hundreds of students of all races and ages who spent their summers with her. We will all miss Patti's warm countenance and unforgettable smile, which nurtured everyone she encountered.”

Sara Murphy, friend, and co-owner of “Patrinkets Jewelry” with Battaglia said, “Our beautiful, incredible, passionate, artist and friend has lost her fight with cancer… She will be missed by many friends, family, students, artists, teachers, and countless others whom she loved during her life.

Linda Van Hart, a retired Carroll County public schools art teacher, art professor at McDaniel College, fellow participant in instructor at Common Ground and lifelong friend of Battaglia’s, said “she was beautiful and kind…”

In between teaching in Howard County public schools, Common Ground and the Maryland Institute College of Art; Van Hart says, “We sandwiched art "happenings" at Howard County Arts Center and installation's for Maryland Art Places' Hair Ball sponsored by John Waters with the United Art Workers

“Many of the best art teachers in Maryland polished their passion for teaching art in her classroom (as student teachers.)

“She has been my best friend for over half my life. Patti is an awesome artist and an unforgettable woman,” said Van Hart.

Battaglia was also especially fond of her two dogs, which she referred to as her “boyz,” Aussie Sidney, an 11-year-old super sized Australian Shepherd and Berner Frankie, a 7-year-old Bernese mountain dog.

Battaglia was the beloved daughter of Lucy Battaglia-Witherspoon (nee Levasseur) and the late Salvatore Battaglia, loving companion and soul mate of Bill Murphy, and dear sister of Timothy, his wife Maureen, and their daughter Jessica; Michael and his wife Allison; and Gregory and his wife, Tracy and their sons Michael and Alex.

Tonight, when the Fells Point Creative Alliance's second annual group show opens, the path from venue to venue will be charted with brilliant windsocks created by art teacher Patti Anne Battaglia and her Elkridge Landing Middle School students.

But don't just follow the neon windsocks to "The Big Show." Follow Battaglia, who undoubtedly will be lighting the way in something ingeniously outrageous. A multimedia artist and confessed "clothesaholic," Battaglia, 42, once made all of her clothes, but now will dabble with a cuff, meddle with a collar to make her wardrobe hers and hers alone.

Patti Anne Battaglia, nationally known artist, teacher, 56

Patti Anne Battaglia, nationally known artist, teacher, 56

By Kevin Dayhoff March 14, 2010 http://kevindayhoff.blogspot.com/2010/03/patti-anne-battaglia-nationally-known.html http://tinyurl.com/y9pdsla http://twitpic.com/19hn4a Labels: Art Artists, Art Artists Battaglia Patti Anne, Art Artists Van Hart Linda, People Tributes http://kbetrue.livejournal.com/310613.html

Patricia Anne “Patti” Battaglia, 56, of Catonsville, a nationally known artist and teacher, died March 13 at home after an extended illness. Battaglia was born October 17, 1953.

She was well known in the Maryland – and Carroll County art community for her unique jewelry, collages, drawing, mixed media, and printmaking.

She participated in McDaniel College’s annual Common Ground on the Hill as an instructor since 1998.

According to the 2009 program for Common Ground, a traditional music and arts festival held at McDaniel College since 1994, in Westminster, Battaglia “recently retired from teaching art in public schools for 30 years in Howard County, Patti has had plenty of opportunity to learn and teach various forms of printmaking…

“She is honored to have one of her original collagraph prints included in the Maryland Printmakers book housed in the Baltimore Museum of Art.”

Walt Michael, executive director and Founder of Common Ground, said “Patti was a stellar member of the art faculty at Common Ground on the Hill from 1998 until just last year.

“Patti's innate talents and artistic flare will be sorely missed by the hundreds of students of all races and ages who spent their summers with her. We will all miss Patti's warm countenance and unforgettable smile, which nurtured everyone she encountered.”

Sara Murphy, friend, and co-owner of “Patrinkets Jewelry,” with Battaglia said, “Our beautiful, incredible, passionate, artist and friend has lost her fight with cancer… She will be missed by many friends, family, students, artists, teachers, and countless others whom she loved during her life.

“Her impact in this world is immeasurable; the ripples in a pond effect. Her teachings and love reach beyond her through those she inspired.

“Patti began making Patrinkets Jewelry out of her desire to adorn herself with original, creative, fun, colorful, magical artistic expressions.

“As an artist, she pushed the limits, continued to explore new possibilities. People were captivated by her presence…”

Murphy and Battaglia began their “collaboration with strengths-in July 2004 (after) we shared a table at Common Ground Music and Arts Festival…

“We were sisters in spirit,” said Murphy, “following instincts from a greater source that told us we were doing the right thing. We never made two pieces exactly the same. We did custom work to suit the individual’s needs; often designing pieces to go with a special outfit or occasion.”

Battaglia attended the Community College of Baltimore County in Catonsville, before earning a Masters degree in Art Education from Towson University.

She was awarded Teacher of the Year, by the Maryland Art Education Association in 1994. She retired from teaching art in Howard County public schools 30 years, in October 2008. She taught elementary art for 16 of those years and middle school art for 14 years.

In addition to Murphy, Battaglia was ‘family’ to so many people, especially her close friends, including Linda Van Hart and Mary Opasik.

Battaglia was also especially fond of her two dogs, which she referred to as her “boyz,” Aussie Sidney, an 11-year-old super sized Australian Shepherd and Berner Frankie, a 7-year-old Bernese mountain dog.

In addition to her handcrafted jewelry and clothing, Battaglia was known affectionately as the “accessory queen.”

In an extensive interview with Stephanie Shapiro for the Baltimore Sun “This teacher of art is a work of art,” on October 3, 1996, Battaglia, whom Shapiro referred to as “A multimedia artist and confessed ‘clothesaholic,” said, “They don't call me the accessory queen for nothing. I collect everything from antique clothes and coats…”

“I designed and made my own clothes in high school. I had a great big carpetbag. My mother never let me wear wild clothes for school. I had one look I went out the door with and another look [in the carpetbag] that showed up at school.”

“Do you remember in particular any outfit that you made?” asked Shapiro.

“I made a really wonderful, sort of salmon-colored satin mini-dress that doubled as a tunic,” responded Battaglia.

“It had bands of piping around the neckline. I wore it to see Jimi Hendrix in concert. I [also] wore that in school with purple elephant leg denim pants. My grandmother showed me how to do rag curls, so my hair bounced up and down while I walked through school. Platform shoes topped off the outfit.”

Van Hart, an art professor at McDaniel College, fellow participant in instructor at Common Ground and lifelong friend of Battaglia’s, said “she was beautiful and kind… I had not planned to spend the rest of my life without my best friend.”

Van Hart and Battaglia met at “a rather dull art education class room at Towson University in the late 1970s.” Battaglia entered the room like “a glowing vision of exotic cinnabar and silk…”

For the next four decades they worked together in the Maryland Art Education Association, Youth Art Month and Program Committee, and National Art Education Association.

In the pursuit of their common-interests in art and art education they traveled all over the United States and the world. They visited places such as Egypt, along with fellow McDaniel art professor Wasyl Palijczuk, Portugal, Jamaica, and “with Spanish oriented trips to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico City, San Miguel de 'Allende and Taxco on the Frida (Kahlo) trail.”

In between teaching in Howard County public schools, Common Ground and the Maryland Institute College of Art; Van Hart says, “We sandwiched art "happenings" at Howard County Arts Center and installation's for Maryland Art Places' Hair Ball sponsored by John Waters with the United Art Workers: John Sosnowsky, Kevin Dayhoff, Cathy Leaycraft, Dan Shapiro and Bobby Waddell…”

According to Van Hart, Battaglia’s “favorite subjects to teach were Japanese fish printing, collagraph printmaking, collage, assemblage, and funky junque jewelry.

“Many of the best art teachers in Maryland polished their passion for teaching art in her classroom (as student teachers.)

“She has been my best friend for over half my life. Patti is an awesome artist and an unforgettable woman.”

Battaglia was the beloved daughter of Lucy Battaglia-Witherspoon (nee Levasseur) and the late Salvatore Battaglia, loving companion and soul mate of Bill Murphy, and dear sister of Timothy, his wife Maureen, and their daughter Jessica; Michael and his wife Allison; and Gregory and his wife, Tracy and their sons Michael and Alex.

Viewing will be held at Weber's Funeral Home, 5311 Edmondson Ave, Baltimore, on Thursday and Friday March 18 & 19 from 2-5pm and 7-9pm.

A funeral service will be Saturday March 20 at 10am at Our Lady of Victory Church, 4414 Wilkens Ave, Catonsville, followed by burial at Dulaney Valley Memorial Gardens, 200 East Padonia Rd, Timonium 21093.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to Defenders of Animal Rights, 14412 Old York Rd, Phoenix, MD 21131

Note, the writer was one of Battaglia’s art partners in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
