The Columbia Bank assumes operations of banking office in Frederick

The last comment is correct about main street tattoos. They have horriblr attitudes and mock other peoples work, but I've seen work come out of there that is subpar at best. Stew is an awesome artist, and I wouldn't hesitate to get work from him. And let's not forget mouse's work. I have a brother who has a nice ink blob on his arm from an overpriced tat that he did. 15 years ago there was no comparison, main st was THE best anywhere. Nobody calls back for your 'free' touch up either.

Isn't this ban discrimination? It's kid of sad that in America smokers are treated worst than terrorists. I've been looking for a hotel for a 10 day trip that allows smoking -- called several but hard to find. So, I searched for a "smoking" hotel room in D.C. and came across your article. Thanks to you, I will look at the hotels listed in the article for possible stay. Vivian

They may do good tattoos but they dont have positive comments and down to earth addutides.

Yeah I'll move into Silo Point...I see it every day and its been EMPTY for months. Just a cool million to move into an empty building. Sure.

One of his other role model is Michael Yasin

To Michael Barnum, VP of Circulation, I am STILL unsuccessful in getting the DC Examiner stopped. I have called your circulation desk over 9 times to get the paper stopped (I never ordered it and do not want it as it is full or right-wing propaganda) and hear the same story line "We will stop it". Only, it does not stop. The CAC is obviously not doing even a minimally adequate job - if they did they would check to see if these requests for stopping the paper were honored. They are not - seems like some sort of State/Federal investigation may be required since they are committing fraud in getting higher advertising rates when they are not entitled to them. Who does the CAC? Do the advertisers who use the CAC numbers care if their rates are higher than they should be?

Cum on ya'll...Crooks deserve praise too for success. Eastern's has and always will have a shady past and probably future. There's no need to hate on the man for putting Rob's dirt in forefront, this is America. And Crooks get honors every now and then ecspecially when they're hustle hits the jackpot, I should know! (I love smugish sarcasm, as if prestige or honors aren't given to crooks, if not by a crook...As if crooks don't hire important athletes or entertainers for shows or advertisements, oh that doesn't happen:) The important thing is that Easterns does provide support to a lot of folks who are 'able' to pay for a car note but don't have the 'credit' to prove it. And this Dude came up with a great hustle...result...success, even more significant now in a time when the sub prime markets failed in a similar effort. Give this man his props, no matter what dirt he has under his nails. He provides a much needed commodity to hard working people that need a bail out more than GMC!!!

What effect will the Costal energy have on Employees, and Retirees pensions,and health benefits?. No mention has been made. I think this is terrible not to advise us. This is a worry to us.

and about the FBI comment. Do you really have a friend who has the low down buddy. Is that why he's honored by the mayor of D.C. He's apart of the Fairfax county Valor society/ Police, and he's well connected with a national football team. Oh that's right.. you have the low down.. Right? instead of using the FBI.. why don't you just come out and say you were fired from Easterns, and have a personal chip on your shoulder. It's a lot easier than sounding CRAZY!

Instead of being jealous of Eastern Motors.. why don't you try and become something in life. It's obvious that you wish you had an ounce of what he has, and the only thing you know how to do is tell ridiculous stories about "drug money" (blah, blah, blah). Get a life.. Dude no really .. get a life. Go work or become something great in life. Oh that's right you probably have issues in that department or otherwise you would be to busy in your life working, and living that you wouldn't have time to hate on his life. It's hard hearing a grown man complain about another grown man being successful. You have more crayons than me.. so uugghh your a drug dealer. Give me a break.

Cherry hill is a high crime neighborhood. It is mostly low income african americans with public housing projects. There are crime survellence cameras all around the area. It has a history of drugs.

I never asked for the examiner, I don't want it and now it is showing up on my doorstep, this does not make me a "customer" or a "reader" all it makes me is annoyed and feeling harassed. Often there are three or more papers on my lawn and in the gutter outside my door. This is neither responsive nor responsible of the examiner, stop delivering it to people who don't sign up for it. Other papers like the washington post have accurate delivery, aggressive over marketing like this is just one more sign that this is a predatory sales circular masquerading as a "news"paper

FBI IS INVESTIGATING ROBERT BASSAM ANDWILL SOON TAKE HIM DOWNSOON AND PUT HIM WHERE HE BELONGS. HE HAS BEEN KNOWINGLY RUNNING HIS BUSINESS BY FRAUD AND LIES FROM SOMEONE IN THE CAR BUSINESS WITH FRIENDS AT THE FBI THAT REALLY KNOWS THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT HIM

Please do not bring from China contaminate MILK to our CHILDRENS!!!

Christy Milton is the most beatuiful women I've ever seen in my life.

i am a personal friend of roberts,have been for over 12years,this man has a huge heart,andby far isnt involved in drug money,for god sake the man doesnt even drink,he has a wonderful family and also watches over many,many families,and not to forget the endless things that you may see or may not see that he does for many people in need.ihave personally witnessed this man give and do soooooo much for people,and he doesnt even mention half of it.people shouldnt talk crap when this man is absolutely a great man,he has a strong personality and work ethic and if thats so bad i think you need to take a look at yourself and ask your self what have you done for anyone today?i know what his answer would be... j.d.

Poeple who don't know their history are doomed to repeat it. Stop believing everything you hear in the US media. Use your minds and do your homework. All the hate spewed by the gop about Obama is bull. They're running scared because finally someone is challenging them on their record. Look at what's right in front of you McCain voted with bush 90% of the time last year and 100% this year.

you forgot to mention that eastern motors was involved in money laundering.(dope money being used to buy expensive cars, how nice!! along with select auto imports, and eagle motors. so don't make it out to be a success story, when drug money is used.

I work for Eastern motors myself and he has friends that work for him that are fake back stabbers they shake your hand but talk behind your back at the same time. I dont know Robert in person but Iwould hope that he is not this way but his friends that work for him are above the law meaning they can get a person fired any time they want even if they are wrong in a situation but that drives away hard workers maybe Robert should not have friends in top positions it can be mis leading and really not fair right is right wrong is wrong no matter if its Roberts friends or not.

add to the list won,t pay his employees.he rude, he lies . he is a cheet and I know this because i worked for him. it seems like the rags.to riches store and it sounds good. but don,t be fooled

That guy Robert is a smart mofo. Everyone knows Eastern Motors and they are all over the place! Gotta love that jingle! Go Easterns!

Conscientious observer - you are an idiot and deserve what happened to you.

Are there flights out of MacArthur Airport on Long Island New York to Washington Dulles

I understand that we should not choose a President based on his religious beliefs,but tell me---how can we support a President in defending our country when he doesn"t even believe in pledging allegiance to it!!!!?????

The Dewalt system is good for notification but the alarm only sounds for 20 seconds and shuts off. The alarm is not loud at all if it were in the middle of a large job site nobody would hear it.

Nice!

I can't believe Fort Monmouth has a bunch of whinos have they ever heard of commuting on the Acela from New Jersey every morning my guess is no.

Ed Hale is a real inspiration. He's the perfect model of the American dream. LL Detroit
