Martin Farms is the stand with all the herbs across

The stand on that end is Bartenfelders and is run by Mr. Martin's

Emil and I had central air installed in 2000 by Mann's Mechanical.
I think it was around $10,000 including the drywalling to cover
the duct work.  We only have visible duct work on the second
floor.  The condenser is on the roof.  BGE gave us a much lower
estimate but they insisted the condenser had to go in the backyard.
Trying to pump cold air up to the third floor is fighting the laws
of physics.  I've heard from several other people who did it that
way that the third floor is never really cool.  If the cold air
starts on the third floor then it naturally tends to fall to the first
floor.  We had another higher estimate for a split system but
it turns out that really isn't necessary.  Oh, and we put the air
handler in one of the third floor closets.  Getting the unit in their
was a very tight squeeze.

We had someone come in to talk to us about high pressure systems with
smaller ducts but he said there wasn't enough space between the
third floor ceiling and the attic to make that possible.  We live
in the 3000 block of Guilford.

For what it's worth, I've seen an Abell house with central air that  
did not cover up the ductwork; the pipes were for the most part placed  
in corners, and were painted the same color as the walls.  They were  
significantly less obtrusive than you might imagine; they're obvious  
once you realize they're there, but it certaintly doesn't jump out at  
you when you're in the house that there's duct work everywhere.

Not sure how much of your cost was for the drywalling, Kathleen, but  
it's something to think about if you're looking to trim costs.

Several Charles Village residents have contracted Unique Indoor Comfort to

install central air conditioning. They use flexible ductwork for most of the house

so ugly bulkheads are not necessary. They can be reached at 410.760.2121.

I only have a two-story-with-basement house (Abell), but I just installed central air with vents only on the second floor.  As mentioned by other chat members, the cold air travels downstairs quite nicely.  Both my condenser and air handler are on the roof; it's a combined unit and high-efficiency.

One code issue is that if you want to have the unit on the roof, you have to have permanent access to the roof from the interior.  I have a trap door in my back bedroom, but if you don't have this, you will have to calculate that into your final costs.

I've done some other renovation work at the same time (as Josh can attest, hearing jackhammers!), so I'd have to check my line items in my contract to remember the cost.  I''m happy to do so, if it would be helpful.

ok, thought i'd ask.
also the BG&E has a special program for people who have central air. it  
gives a discount on the bill in exchange for borrowing your  
electricity(i think it's electricity) during peak hours but when you  
are not home. I think i got that right.

Christine:

Check out www.baltimoreunique.com for Unique Indoor Comfort which promotes 
central air conditioning for homes with hot water or steam radiator heat.  
Evidently, they specialize in doing this in older homes in a way that does 
not involve installing ductwork.  They claim to use 2" flexible tubing woven 
through walls and ceilings, around studs etc, with visible small round 
outlets in every room.  They give free estimates.  Their local number is 
410-760-2121.  I just came across their promotional material while I was working 
through a "to do" pile.  After you get the work done, whenever that may be, 
please share your experience.  I would like to get this done myself.

COMING UP WEDNESDAY!



5-6 pm Charles Street Trolley


 

Should a trolley ride on Charles Street once again?  Would it help
development along Charles Street, or would it divert funds from other
transportation projects that would serve more people?  We'll hear from
advocates on both sides of the issue.


 

6-7pm Lea Gilmore


 

Lea Gilmore is back again for her monthly visit with Marc to discuss
politics, pop culture, and anything else that is on your mind.  Today they
will be looking at whether there is a connection between talk radio/cable
news and the reported rise in hate groups in America.  They'll also examine
the Justice Departments defense of the "Defense of Marriage Act" and Obama's
decision to extend benefits for the same-sex partners of federal employees.

Message-ID: <f0ddf5c00906172055r9b6a42i627c9739cc1265bd@mail.gmail.com>

Hello, neighbors,

If you need wooden furniture repaired, we can recommend
Dovetail Restoration in Hampden.  They fixed a broken leg
on a wooden chair for $140.  The mend is as smooth as you
could ask for.  We bought a Ben Franklin style chair that
converts to a step stool when you fold it over.  Very handy
for the kitchen.  The hinges broke and a board came loose,
and it looked like a mess.  They got it fixed for $95.  They
also replaced the cane/wicker on the seat of a chair for $80.

Their website is

  http://DovetailRestoration.com/

and their phone number is (410) 243-8300.

Message-ID: <E1MHjgk-0006pJ-VA@elasmtp-mealy.atl.sa.earthlink.net>

Your suggestions are welcome on the situation below.
 
Last September we saw someone walk across the alley behind Calvert to the
St. Paul side and pour gasoline over the door of a garage.  We could smell
the gasoline from our house, about five doors down, and then a person with
us went up to it and confirmed that it was in fact gasoline.

We thought this was bizarre and did not know what to do.  We did not know
the persons intent but were concerned that if there was a fire it could
affect the whole block of row houses.  If a neighbor had seen someone do
this to our house or the house next door we'd want them to call the police,
so we did.
 
The police sent out the arson squad.  We never accused anyone of arson but
did report the pouring of gasoline.
 
Recently we found out that the individual was arrested and held over in jail
for three days, paying a $1,000 bond to get out.  The police wanted to
charge him with attempted arson but the prosecutors felt they could not
prove it.  The police/prosecutor never called us to discuss whether there
was anything more than gasoline being poured.   
 
We received a letter from a lawyer, Howard Schulman, threatening to sue us
for defamation because we accused his client of attempted arson.  In the
letter the lawyer acknowledged that his client did indeed pour gasoline in
the alley.  He claimed it was to kill rats.  Pouring gasoline and other
chemicals in the ally is itself illegal.
 
We wrote back saying that the lawyer had the facts wrong and we did not
accuse anyone of attempted arson, merely that he poured gasoline on a
neighbors garage -- something the lawyer admitted.
 
The lawyer wrote back with a draft complaint continuing his threat to sue
and telling us to have our lawyer or insurance company call him.
 
We contacted our insurance company which initially said they would cover
this, but now say they do not.  They say they talked to the lawyer and that
he does intend to sue.  He suggests we get a lawyer.

Of course, getting a lawyer would probably cost more than settling the case
but we do not want to settle a false claim or hire a lawyer.
 
We see this as a legal stick-up -- the type of thing that will discourage
others from calling the police when they see a crime.
 
Any suggestions?  Any lawyers or others with experience with this?
 
Thanks.

Had anyone heard anything in advance about the race through Charles  
Village this morning (Sat. 6/20)?  My wife wasn't able to get to her  
class because all the routes to the south seemed to be blocked.   
Hadn't heard anything on any of the CV lists or in the paper (yes, we  
are among the hold-outs who still get the Sun).

Kevin,

Years ago, I read that someone in NY had been convicted of the common 
law crime of barratry (the bringing of 2 or more groundless suits at 
common law).  I do not know whether barratry is a crime under Maryland 
common or statute law, but this state makes a lot more use of common law 
than just about any other state.  You can easily research online any 
Maryland court cases involving the lawyer who has threatened to sue you 
as well as the person who poured gasoline, and if you find something 
that suggests that either has committed barratry, you may want to 
contact the office of the State's Attorney and possibly the Attorney 
Grievance Commission.

Here is a link to research Maryland court cases involving both the 
lawyer and the person who poured the gasoline:
http://casesearch.courts.state.md.us/inquiry/inquiry-index.jsp

I just looked, and there are 467 cases listed involving the lawyer.  The 
first page of them contains cases in which he was the attorney, and that 
may be true of all of the rest of them.  Take a good look at the cases 
(and that will take quite a bit of time).

In any case, since what you reported to the police was accurate, and 
since it was the police who turned it into an attempted arson charge, I 
cannot imaging that a judge would not dismiss any lawsuit against you.  
And I would hope that the lawyer and/or the plaintiff in the lawsuit 
would be risking a charge of barratry if either has brought other 
groundless suits.

Also, I would second the suggestion of calling the Sun and the TV 
stations.  Some publicity would probably be devastating for those who 
are apparently attempting to abuse the law here.

As I think about it, it may be the case that the lawyer sees you as a 
likely witness in a criminal case against his client and is hoping to 
intimidate you into not testifying, possibly as part of a deal to drop 
the lawsuit.

Steve.

Kevin,

It occurs to me that a good person to contact is:
> *Terrell Warren*
> 410-878-8186
> 5800 Wabash Avenue
> Baltimore, MD 21215
She is the community liaison for Northern District in the State's 
Attorney's office.  I have no doubt that she will be very interested in 
the efforts to intimidate a potential witness, and she can put you in 
touch with the right person in the State's Attorney's office.

Also, I have read or seen on tv that there are cases of people serving 
very long sentences in prison who have nothing better to do than to file 
lots of groundless lawsuits, e.g. against the jurors who have convicted 
them.  Such lawsuits are always thrown out, but they nonetheless 
constitute a nuisance for the jurors who are forced to respond.  Do not 
let them intimidate you.

Steve.

i thought someone who was the victim of defamation had to have been so 
harmed that there is a neg impact on their life. I would tell the 
lawyer to stick it., he sounds confused.  he is trying to jerk you 
around.   I'd wait till his paperwork comes thru(If it does). He's 
trying to get you to settle out of court. some lawyers think people are 
stupid.  With your permission I'll call him. tell him  u  will counter 
sue.  you can tell i'm pissed.

I saw nothing notifying us of the footrace on Saturday, which certainly inconvenienced a lot of city dwellers.  I was awakened by the sounds of police blocking off lanes of 33rd Street.  I was at Van Dyke and Bacon on York Rd later in the morning.  The shoe salesman mentioned that he had had difficulty getting to work: the #8 bus had been stopped on Greenmount at 28th, and passengers were told they had to walk up to 36th to get a continuing bus!  The bus riders had no warning, either, and he could have taken a different bus route. 

Somebody in the racing community and/or city govt certainly dropped the ball when they did not let people know to plan ahead for disruption.  We can do that, but we need to know ahead of time about the events and how they will affect us.

Had anyone heard anything in advance about the race through Charles  
Village this morning (Sat. 6/20)?  My wife wasn't able to get to her  
class because all the routes to the south seemed to be blocked.   
Hadn't heard anything on any of the CV lists or in the paper (yes, we

be responsive to input re how to improve events and coordination with
communities.  Here is there link:

This morning a small brown/grey striped cat (I think
that is what people call tabby) was meowing incessantly
at my back door (3040 Guilford in Hunter alley).  I had
to leave for a couple of hours and when I came back she
(I'm pretty sure the cat is female) was still there.
She seemed confused like she was looking for her house
and wasn't sure which one was her's.  The cat is small
and might be an adolescent.  If anyone has any guesses
who she might belong to, I'd appreciate any leads.
I can't keep her long because Emil is allergic and
the rabbits are stressed by the constant meowing.

She definitely doesn't fit the description of the two
lost cat flyers I saw around the neighborhood (3-legged
orange or black tuxedo).

Updatres on One plus One.    Note this point: " Enforcement will be focused 
on failure to use [covered] trash cans - not volume
and schedule - we intend to allow at least a 3 month grace period for 
enforcement of new service requirements as we know citizens will need
time to adjust to the changes"

There are some communities that are at a convergence point and will
therefore have multiple collection schedules within their community
boundaries. We have tried to keep these to a minimum and have used
larger streets as they are generally more intuitive boundaries and more
easily remembered for area residents.

Postcards with specific days of service will be mailed to all customer
addresses beginning the last week of June

Many addresses will also receive automated calls directing them to
www.baltimorecity.gov <http://www.baltimorecity.gov/> and 311 for
details on their new days of service

Citizens can now go on-line to www.baltimorecity.gov
<http://www.baltimorecity.gov/> OR www.cleanergreenerbaltimore.org
<http://www.cleanergreenerbaltimore.org/> OR call 311, provide their
address and receive their specific days of service

The point of collection for trash and recycling will now be the same -
recycling will follow trash - so, if trash collection is at the rear of
a property - recycling will also be collected at the rear.

Enforcement will be focused on failure to use trash cans - not volume
and schedule - we intend to allow at least a 3 month grace period for
enforcement of new service requirements as we know citizens will need
time to adjust to the changes

Tonya,

One other question.  Under the new system, if the dividing line runs
along a street will one side have a different schedule from the other -
take Loch Raven Blvd. and the Alameda in Ednor Gardens for example.  Or
25th Street west of Greenmount in Barclay and Charles Village.

Brad,

Thanks for the information.

A link to a citywide map showing collection days is:
http://www.cleanergreenerbaltimore.org/uploads/files/web_map_districts.pdf

For Charles Village north of 25th St., trash will be picked up on 
Tuesdays, and recycling will be picked up on Thursdays.

For the part of CVCBD south of 25th St. and for the part of CVCBD east 
of Greenmount Ave. and south of 33rd St., trash will be picked up on 
Fridays, and recycling will be picked up on Wednesdays.

Steve.

Despite what it says in the DPW calendar, trash apparently will be 
picked up this Friday, July 3.  But most other trash/recycling 
operations will be closed that day.

There will be no trash or recycling pickups on Monday, July 13, and One 
Plus One will begin on July 14.  Starting that week, those of us in 
Charles Village north of 25th including the north side of 25th will have 
trash pickup Tuesday, 7/14 and subsequent Tuesdays and recycling pickup 
Thursday, 7/16 and subsequent Thursdays.  That includes all of Abell.  
If you are east of Greenmount or south of 25th, use the link below to 
learn your days.

As originally planned, the two sides of Greenmount below 33rd will have 
different trash and recycling days from each other under One Plus One.  
Mary Pat Clarke is seeking to change that within Waverly Main Street to 
make both sides of Greenmount have the same days.  Previously, the two 
sides of Greenmount had different trash collection days, and a change 
was made to make them the same.

A map of the trash and recycling days citywide starting July 14 is:
http://www.cleanergreenerbaltimore.org/uploads/files/web_map_districts.pdf

Under One Plus One, each house will be allowed 96 gallons of trash per 
week, unlimited recycling, and unlimited yard waste in clear or labeled 
plastic bags (put out on the trash day).  Trash must be in covered trash 
cans.  It may not be in a plastic bag unless that bag is inside a 
covered trash can.  Recycling may be in the yellow containers 
distributed by the City, by CVCBD and by several hardware stores, or it 
may be in paper bags or in cardboard cartons, or it may be paper that 
has been tied up.  Recycling should not be in plastic bags.

The City says that it is planning enforcement of the requirement trash 
be in a proper container.  Don't get fined!

Zora,

Thanks for getting the information.  It is consistent with what I have 
heard from Celeste Amato who is the City official in charge of informing 
the public about One Plus One.

By the way, there may be some blocks that need to make special 
arrangements about trash and recycling (for example where the alley is 
very narrow and there is not sufficient room to put out a trash can 
while leaving room for a trash truck to drive by it).  Celeste Amato 
said that people on such blocks should contact her:
> Celeste Amato
> Telephone: 410-545-6541
> email: Celeste.Amato at baltimorecity.gov 
> <mailto:Celeste.Amato at baltimorecity.gov>

One reason that One Plus One will not go into effect until July 14 is to 
give people time to get out the bugs.  Some of our blocks such as mine 
will simply have a change to only one trash pickup per week and 
recycling pickup every week, and others such as yours will also have a 
change in where recycling is picked up.  But there may be more serious 
changes to work out, and Celeste Amato has promised to work them out 
with the people affected.

Steve.

Judy,

If you are talking about the bottles that cooking oil comes in, yes.  
Just rinse them out with soapy water and put them out with your recycling.

There is some hard plastic such as crates for milk cartons, frisbees, 
etc. that should not go out with the regular recycling.  But it can be 
taken to Sisson Street and put in a dumpster marked "rigid plastic."

Here is a link to a web page describing what can and cannot be recycled:
http://www.baltimorecity.gov/government/dpw/recycle/newsflash.php

Since I have lived here, it has been a custom to paint ones address on 
garbage cans.  I would recommend doing the same on recycling cans and 
bins.  I have just received an email from a resident of Abell who has 
had two trash cans stolen.

Let me add that I expect that the transition to One Plus One will not be 
as traumatic as many seem to think it will be.  You will be allowed 
three plastic trash cans of the size that most people use (30-32 
gallons), and that should be adequate.  In other words, you will be 
allowed 3/4 of what you are now allowed per week.

BTW, in weeks when trash or recycling day is a holiday, there will be a 
pickup on Saturday once One Plus One is in effect (after July 14).

Steve.
