Kevin Dayhoff The Tentacle: In The Line of Fire…

February 16, 2011

In The Line of Fire…
Less than a month after it was reported on TheTentacle.com that deaths of on-duty law enforcement officers in 2010 spiked, comes the news that 11 police officers were killed in the line of duty in January.

To refresh your memory, in “Remembering Those in Harm’s Way – published December 29, 2010, the column carried the haunting news that “a total of 160 law enforcement officers nationwide died in the line of duty during 2010, according to the report by the NLEOMF, [National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund] follow(ing) a two-year decline and comes on the heels of 2009 which saw a 50-year low of 117 police officer fatalities.”

In a disturbing news account, on January 25, 2011, Fox News reported that 11 police officers were shot in January – in just 24 hours – nationwide, “Authorities are worried a recent wave of police officer shootings may not be a coincidence…”

“According to National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, an organization that tracks police casualties; there have already been as many officer deaths in January 2011 as there were in January of last year. The organization reported that officer deaths were up 43 percent in 2010 compared to 2009,” Fox reported... http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4233

True Crime

"True Grit" starring Clint Eastwood
February 15, 2011


I'm watching "True Crime" the mystery crime drama, released March 19, 1999, starring Clint Eastwood as a journalist, Steve Everett, an Oakland journalist recovering from alcoholism, with a less than desirable personality, covering the execution of prisoner on death row, who is about to be executed.

The movie is based on a 1997 novel by Andrew Klavan and the plot involves the newspaper writer, played by Eastwood, discovers that the inmate accused of the murder for which he is sentenced to be executed, is innocent.

The well-received Off Track Art Co-op artists’ exhibition, featured at Birdie’s CafĂ© in Westminster, continues through Feb. 27.
The show, “Lucky 13,” opened Jan. 7 with a bang and plenty of new artworks by some of Carroll’s favorite and most well-known artists. Birdie’s CafĂ© opened last year in the old Pour House space at 233 E. Main St.
The featured artists include Kevin Dayhoff, Mary E. Decker, Gail Elwell, Judy Goodyear, Phil Grout, Charlotte Laslo, C.Z. Sawdey, Carolyn Seabolt, Linda Van Hart, Robert J. Waddell, Gordon Wickes, and Pam Zappardino.
The coffeehouse, run by local artist Sherri Hosfeld Joseph, of Westminster, has been holding art shows bi-monthly to promote local and regional artists. The artists from Off Track Art, known as “the Co-op,” are showing new works in addition to their ongoing, changing shows at 11 Liberty St., next to the railroad tracks and across from O’Lordans Irish Pub in Westminster.
Former Mayor Kevin Dayhoff, artist and writer, is showing new collage works and a wooden sculpture never shown before. Dayhoff has been a collage master for more than 30 years and just keeps getting better.
Dayhoff is exhibiting three pieces. Dayhoff said he “explores colors and shapes and various social themes through collage, mixed media assemblage, drawings, and photography.
“I like the patriotic theme of ‘The Union Bridge College Bell and Flag,’ photograph as well as the history and tradition of the image…” he explained.
According to Dayhoff, he is also particularly fond of “Insaniacs,” a digitally enhanced photograph. He likes the juxtaposition of the Bo Diddley quote about how insane society can be - on top of the tranquility depicted in a scene from his farm in Patapsco.
The most interesting piece in the show by Dayhoff is “Nosakhere,” a religious wooden sculpture from his African mask series. This piece, which is nearly 3 feet tall, is a commanding face and has an organic feel. The name is an African one that means “One with God.”
“So much of art is about beauty and harmony and juxtaposing the various themes that make us human. All of those gifts come from my sense of faith…”  http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/advocate_of_westminster/columns/eye_for_art/local-artists-featured-at-birdie-s-cafe/article_706b5dd2-3910-11e0-a5e3-001cc4c002e0.html

The history of Carroll County is enshrined in records somewhere, and columnist Kevin Dayhoff reminds us of interesting or amusing tidbits in his space here in The Eagle.

He follows a tradition of reciting facts so the current generation doesn't forget -- or worse, distort -- what came before.

But not everyone has Kevin's respect for the historical record. One of the items that is to be cut from Maryland's education budget is a mandatory test in government, what we used to call "Civics." …http://www.explorecarroll.com/opinion/5167/they-who-fail-learn-history-are-doomed-butcher-it/

The dire straits of our local and national economy continues to dominate the news these days. Despite of what our national and state leaders tell us, things are still bad out there for families, especially for the number of people losing their homes to foreclosure.

Locally, the ability to overcome financial challenges may have something to do with the collective history and personality of Carroll County... http://www.explorecarroll.com/community/5163/military-relief-provisions-past-offer-practical-help-today/
