Country View Tuxedo & Wedding Accessories is relocating to a shop almost right next door on Main St in Westminster

Country View Tuxedo & Wedding Accessories is relocating to a shop almost right next door on Main St in Westminster https://kevindayhoffwestgov-net.blogspot.com/2016/11/country-view-tuxedo-wedding-accessories.html

Mon, Oct 31, 2016

Hello Kevin,

We really appreciate you sharing this information.

Country View Tuxedo & Wedding Accessories was founded February 1998.

Has always been in the Winchester Exchange building in downtown Westminster. And now has relocated into a more convenient and customer friendly location.

I know how important it is for my customers to look the best for their wedding, prom, or social event. I want to give my customers great prices, great selection, and great service. If I would make an error. I am willing to go beyond to make it the best experience. I am a Christian and feel I have a calling here. Saying a silent prayer for the bride and groom that they have a beautiful and wonderful wedding day. Or that the students make it to and from the prom safely.

Styles have changed since I have opened and I have had to adjust to the changes. Suits are being rented as much as tuxedos. So we offer suits and tuxedos, for sale beside as a rental.

The store also has a gift shop with unique items made with forks and spoons, we also have jeeps, motorcycles, and tractors made from car parts.

I am now selling fireman uniforms to local fire departments. I look forward to including service to the police department. My plans are to expand future my services.

Shelly will be sending her information very soon.

Thank You'

Tues. Oct. 25, 2016 Vernon, Normandy France - standing at the plane tree that anchored the 2nd floating bridge across the Seine established on Aug. 27, 1944.

Almost 3 months after D Day, June 6, 1944; on Aug. 25, 1944, the British Nottinghamshire Sherwood Rangers Yeoman - Royal Armoured Corps, moved through Vernon to begin operations to cross the Seine.

From Aug. 25-29, 1944 the British lost over 550 men in the operation. Montgomery used the bridge to cross the Seine on Sept. 1, 1944, on his way to Belgium.

According to one guide, "Normandy is a region of northern France. Its varied coastline includes white-chalk cliffs and WWII beachheads, including Omaha Beach, site of the famous D-Day landing. Just off the coast, the rocky island of Mont-Saint-Michel is topped by a soaring Gothic abbey. The city of Rouen, dominated by Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Rouen, is where military leader and Catholic saint Joan of Arc was executed in 1431."

Sept. 27, 1999 Carroll County says it will be Y2K ready – Boris Hartl, Carroll County Times

First published Monday, September 27, 1999

Carroll says it will be Y2K-ready

Contingency plans protect Maryland jurisdictions from lawsuits

By BORIS HARTL Times Staff Writer

Officials from Carroll County's eight municipalities and the county government said they don't expect the Year 2000 bug to be a problem, provided local power companies can supply them with electricity on Jan. 1, 2000.

Baltimore Gas and Electric says not to worry. Robert Cornelius, BGE's Year 2000 program manager, said the company has been Y2K-compliant since June 30. A spokesman for Allegheny Power, which supplies power to the western half of Carroll County, said his company is immune to the so-called ``millennium bug.''

Carroll's eight incorporated areas - Hampstead, Manchester, Mount Airy, New Windsor, Sykesville, Taneytown, Union Bridge, and Westminster - have either adopted Y2K-compliance plans or are close to doing so.

The county commissioners approved a county government year 2000 compliance plan Wednesday.

``We're in good shape,'' said Union Bridge Mayor Perry L. Jones Jr. ``We’re not as large as the other municipalities so there wasn't as much work to do.''

The General Assembly passed a law last year that protects local governments, under certain circumstances, from lawsuits and liability for damages arising from year 2000 problems, as long as those municipalities adopt a Y2K-compliance plan by Oct. 1. The plan must outline what those municipalities have done to identify and remedy potential Year 2000 computer problems.

Mount Airy Mayor Gerald R. Johnson estimates that by the end of the year, the town will have spent about $10,000 on Year 2000 preparations. The money was partially spent buying new computers, software, and some backup power generators for the sewer systems.

The Union Bridge Town Council could adopt its Y2K-compliance plan at its Monday night meeting, Jones said. The town has upgraded its computer systems and has installed backup generators for its water and sewer systems.

The New Windsor Town Council passed its Y2K-compliance Plan Sept. 1. The Manchester Town Council adopted its Y2K-compliance Plan at its Sept. 14 meeting. The town is in the middle of installing generators at two well sites.

As part of the town's emergency preparedness plan, Sykesville officials have created a Y2K contingency task force. The will purchase a police generator for the police department.

Sykesville's Town Council is scheduled to review its Y2K contingency plan at its next meeting, which is set for 7 p.m. today.

Taneytown received a $10,000 grant from the state to help the city upgrade its accounting and computer software and make it Y2K-compliant. That was taken care of a month ago, said City Manager Chip Boyles.

City officials are in the process of buying a generator to run a couple of different water wells should the electricity go out Jan. 1, Boyles said.

Generators are also on stand-by at the sewer treatment plant, he said.

Extra policemen and utility workers will be on hand New Year's Eve in the case the power does go out or other problems arise, he said.

Boyles said that if for some reason they do lose power, water and sewer services will still be provided.

But, Boyles said, he's confident Taneytown's electricity source, Allegheny Power, is Y2K-compliant and won't have any problems.

Hampstead officials could not be reached for this report.

The Westminster City Council could approve its Y2K plan at its meeting tonight. Copies of the plan are available at City Hall, located at the 1800 block of Emerald Hill Lane.

Allen Staggers, an Allegheny Power spokesman, said the power company will staff extra employees to handle complaints and questions during the holiday season. BGE will do the same.

``We don't anticipate any Y2K problems; we are more concerned about the typical outages during the day,'' Staggers said. ``Anyone at anytime could be out of power. We'll make the extra effort and respond to all the typical outages. We don't want people to [mistakenly] think it's Y2K when it's not. That's our biggest fear.''

Staff Writer Stacey Ward contributed to this report.

On Friday, early in the afternoon, Sept. 23, 2016, a driver blew through an accident scene on westbound Rt. 140 and Sandymount Road, almost hit a Westminster Vol. Fire Dept. EMS provider, and sideswiped ambulance 38.

On Wed., Sept. 28, 2016, Greg Shipley with the Maryland State Police office of media communications sent out a news release about the incident: http://news.maryland.gov/msp/2016/09/28/driver-charged-with-hit-and-run-involving-ambulance-at-carroll-co-crash-scene/

On Wed., Sept. 26, 2016, the Carroll County Times carried the story: “Westminster man charged with hit-and-run of ambulance at crash scene,”

“A Westminster man has been charged in a hit-and-run incident after he allegedly drove through a crash scene on Md. 140 on Friday, striking an ambulance, then drove away…” Carroll County Times staff Wed., Sept. 28, 2016 http://www.carrollcountytimes.com/news/crime/ph-cc-ambulance-hit-and-run-20160928-story.html

On Thursday afternoon, Sept. 29, 2016, news reporter Tracey Leong and videographer Judy Ryan from WJZ Baltimore Channel 13 interviewed Westminster Vol. Fire Dept. EMS provider Brittany Baeder about the hit and run crash in Carroll Co. Sept. 23, 2016 at Rte 140 and Sandymount Rd. http://baltimore.cbslocal.com/2016/09/29/hit-and-run-driver-unapologetic-after-narrowly-missing-firefighter/

“The men and women of the Westminster Vol. Fire Dept., on behalf of all Carroll County fire fighters. EMS provides and police officers, urge the driving public to exercise extra restraint, caution, care, and patience when they come upon fire and police officials responding at an accident scene.

The consequences of not exercising that extra care can be horrific. Besides, they could attending to your loved-one, neighbor, friend, or family member – or the first responder hurt or killed by your actions could be your loved-one, neighbor, friend, or family member.

I think that I failed at baking this afternoon

I think that I failed at baking this afternoon. I was cleaning-out the pantry of some old baking mixes – and they did not turn-out so well. I might have to go outside and go hunting for nuts, twigs and berries for dinner. Maybe I will hunt down the cricket that is singing so loudly in the living room. Then again, maybe I'll take a nap.
