Bentley

The First Mount Olive Free Will Baptist Church bought a luxurious custom Bentley in 2005, the same year the inner-city church failed to pay a $12,000 water bill that has led to the filing of a foreclosure suit, motor vehicle records show. The congregation that owns the 140-year-old West Baltimore church, destroyed last week by lightning, is fending off multiple foreclosure threats because of the delinquent water bill and an alleged mortgage default on the 9-acre property the church owns in Southwest Baltimore, according to court records.

Although it leads the East Coast in several categories of shipping activity, the port of Baltimore often seems to be hiding in plain sight. So officials used the Saturday observance of National Maritime Day to throw open a pier at the Canton Marine Terminal and invite 28 businesses and agencies that call the port home to hold a career day. "It's the first time we've done this," said former Rep. Helen Delich Bentley, for whom the port is named....

Three women known for strong will and public accomplishment received the Maryland Senate's First Citizen awards Wednesday, capping an annual tradition in the upper chamber. Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake and former U.S. Rep. Helen Delich Bentley joined Victoria Gruber, chief of staff to Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller, in accepting the award. Rawlings-Blake is a second-generation recipient of the award, which was presented posthumously to her father, House Appropriations Committee Chairman Howard P. "Pete" Rawlings.

If God Himself could speak out and create a redistricting plan for Maryland, it's certain that at least one member of the present delegation would be crying to high heaven. Census constraints require the creation of a new, minority congressional district in the Washington suburbs. That leaves the eight incumbent House members playing musical chairs. When the noise of partisan fighting stops, there will be seats for only seven.So it should come as no surprise that in the month since Redistricting Plan No. 1 was endorsed by the Governor's Redistricting Advisory Committee -- a plan which brazenly edged out Republican Helen Bentley -- that Bentley has fought back hard.

Helen Delich Bentley may be out of Congress, but in a new stint as radio pitchwoman she still lets the Democrats feel the sharp edge of her tongue.In a radio ad for the plush Towson Town Center mall, the former GOP representative says, "Whenever I go there, it brings out the Democrat in me; I spend, spend, spend."How did Towson Town Center get Mrs. Bentley to sign up for a celebrity endorsement?"We asked her," said Chris Schardt, the mall manager."That's true," Mrs. Bentley said, adding with a hearty laugh, "They were constituents, and you get used to doing things for your constituents.

The conflict in Yugoslavia continues to dog the campaign of U.S. Rep. Helen Delich Bentley, R-2nd, as her press spokesman conducted a very public resignation yesterday morning, claiming he had lost his argument to change her position on Serbian matters.The scene next to Mrs. Bentley's Towson office on Joppa Road bordered on the bizarre.In front of a sign calling for the four-term congresswoman's re-election, Blaine Taylor, dressed in a Vietnam-era Army uniform, read a handwritten statement attacking Mrs. Bentley while expressing his admiration for her and admitting his own emotional problems and his problems with alcohol.

Bentley, a Jack Russell, was rescued at 8 weeks old. When someone leaves my house, he races to the door and jumps against it, barking. If I go out with someone, he goes to the door agressively, like to bite or nip. He has nipped someone before. I now either crate him prior to someone coming or lock him in another room. This behavior isn't any different with people he knows or strangers. What do I do? Putting Bentley in a separate room or a crate is a good start - you don't want him to keep rehearsing this behavior until you've taught him what is appropriate.

The Baltimore Sun's front page on July 22, 1959, carried the news accompanied by a six-column photo: The world's first nuclear-powered cargo ship had been launched at Camden, N.J. The christening of the $47 million N/S Savannah was bigger than news about legislation to extend the GI Bill of Rights, bigger than a Cape Canaveral rocket launch, bigger, even, than a federal court ruling to allow the steamy novel "Lady Chatterley's Lover" to be...

Helen Delich Bentley served five terms in Congress, was chairwoman of the Federal Maritime Commission and has the Port of Baltimore named for her. So you'd think that at the National Maritime Day celebration last Saturday (5/19) in Baltimore everybody would be on board with that chunk of information, right David Matsuda? Not quite. The head of the U.S. Maritime Administration called her, “Helen Detrick Bentley,” before handing off to his boss, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, who entered Congress in 1995, the year Bentley departed.

For some people, the concert news of the day has already run, and no one's gonna top it. They'll read these names below and say, Are any of these guys VAN HALEN ??? Do they wear shiny leather pants and vaguely Middle Eastern scarves and a pinstripe vest and also a belt buckle bigger than Mitt Romney's head? Are they responsible for “RUNNING WITH THE DEVIIIIIIL!!”? Ok, no. For everyone else, here's the other concert news of the day: To raise money for the experimental music festival High Zero, Matmos's Drew Daniel, Dan Deacon and Schwarz will play DJ sets at the H&H Building's 5th Dimension April 27. Leprechaun Catering and  John Berndt's Multiphonic Choir will also perform.

Her name is so linked to Baltimore's port that it has been renamed the "Helen Delich Bentley Port of Baltimore." For well over a half-century, Bentley has followed and championed the causes of the city's maritime industry, as a journalist, Nixon administration appointee, congresswoman and consultant. She has been called "the godmother of the port," which she has described as being akin to her own child. This month, the Baltimore Museum of Industry gave Bentley the 2010 William Donald Schaefer Industrialist of the Year Award, presented each spring to visionary local business leaders.

Irvin F. Kemp Jr., a retired WMAR-TV film editor whose career spanned more than 30 years, died Jan. 9 of lung cancer at his Parkville home. He was 84. Mr. Kemp, the son of a plumber and a homemaker, was born in Baltimore and raised in Hamilton. After graduating from Polytechnic Institute, Mr. Kemp was drafted into the Army in 1942. He served as a military policeman, as part of an engineering unit and as a truck driver in Europe. He was discharged in 1946. After the war, Mr. Kemp went to work as a machinist in the experimental laboratory at the old Glenn L. Martin Co. plant in Middle River.

A deal in which a private contractor will invest hundreds of millions of dollars into the Helen Delich Bentley Port of Baltimore in return for a 50-year lease of Seagirt Marine Terminal received a strong endorsement Friday from the person who might be the most important arbiter of all: Helen Delich Bentley. The former congresswoman and "godmother" of the port was among those who gathered at Seagirt as Gov. Martin O'Malley announced a deal that would upgrade the terminal so that it can unload the super-sized containerships that are expected to become a growing sector of maritime commerce after a widened Panama Canal opens in 2014.
