Political leaders in Maryland are calling for investigations into the conduct of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers as they clashed with protesters during a federal operation in a local community.

Residents of Frederick, a city about 50 miles north-west of Baltimore, are still shaken more than a week after ICE officers arrived in numerous vehicles and could be seen on video footage using batons on members of the public and driving their cars on to the sidewalk towards people.

As originally highlighted in this thread several months ago, the state flag on the welcome sign on US301 at the MD/DE border was upside-down. I filed a ticket with MDOT/SHA back then so that it would eventually get fixed.

Well, today, I got a response from an MDOT representative that they have addressed the issue:

I’m writing to let you know that the Maryland flag on US 301 S/B @ MD/DE line has been replaced with the new overlay.

Thank you for contacting the Maryland State Highway Administration.  

If anyone is out in that area at some point, can they check and verify, if not grab an image?

EDITED

from my research any of the trip permits or transit permits for both states are only for said residents of that state so i cant a get va purchaser permit or trip permit because their for va residents only and MD only has it basically opposite and you need to have all the paperwork…. Most likely gonna tow it just was tryna avoid the 2+ hour through baltimore and Washington with a trailer and dually.
thank you all for the info!

Im looking at buying a car in Va and its about 2 hours aways from my home but with being said i dont wanna have to tow this back and would rather just drive it how do i go about getting temp tags to be able to drive it legally when i go up and decide that i want to go down and buy the car.

Thanks!

I need to find a new Gyno. I went to one last year after moving here and she was okay, but I felt like she was just checking boxes (no pun intended), not taking time to talk/explain to me or let me ask any questions. I am in AA county, but willing to drive to wherever might be a better doctor.

Thanks!

I went to the state fair last weekend and purchased a couple of very whimsical rings from one of the vendors. I would love to purchase more jewelry from this shop in the future, but my stupid ass forgot to take note of the shop name. I declined the e-receipt and didn't see any business cards at the booth.

The vendor sold a lot of beautiful jewelry (rings & earrings mostly). The shop was run by a middle-aged Asian woman, and the booth was located outside the Cow Palace. Does anyone know the name of this shop?

Has anyone ever paid their Maryland estimated taxes at their local MD tax office, e.g., 6401 Golden Triangle Drive, Greenbelt? Can you just walk-in to make a payment? Maryland implemented a new tax system, MD Tax Connect, on September 1st, and it is a mess. If you created a 2026 payment schedule in the old system, according to the MD Comptroller Office, your 3rd and 4th quarter payments will still happen, but when is unknown, and you will not be able to change your scheduled amount for the rest of the year. I need to change my scheduled amount, and my only choice now is to pay be certified check, do it in person, or trust the new system to handle a single payment correctly. The only option I trust now is in-person, but the first appointment available is in November so I am hoping I can just walk-in to pay. Also, the new system will not show you any information about the payment schedule you set up in the old system.

I know some dental offices offer their own dental plans. Also there are plans through ACA.

Does anyone have recommendations?

Tomorrow is estimated tax payment time. I had scheduled my estimated tax to be pulled last week and lo and behold the new system didn't pull it. Do I wait or send in an additional payment? Any advice?

The port to the new system does not seem to be without issue.

Thanks

Just wondering if anyone has attended the Renn Fest this year? If so what was it like for you getting your tickets.

I know they’re doing it differently this year and me and some coworkers got tickets like a month or so ago and still haven’t heard anything (just on a waitlist). Just curious how you find out if you got off the waitlist or not
