CEI demonstrates a community approach to stormwater challenges
When the Community Ecology Institute acquired Freetown Farm in Columbia, it also inherited some serious stormwater issues that weren’t limited to the property itself. Fixing those problems for the surrounding community is an ongoing process spearheaded by CEI, which is bringing its expertise in outreach, education and environmental sustainability to bear on these issues.
Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Resumes baseball activities
Westburg (hand) has been cleared to field grounders and take one-handed swings, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports. It's not much, but it's the beginning of a ramp-up for Westburg as he works his way back from a fractured right hand. The infielder will eventually need to undergo some additional imaging to see how his hand has healed before a clearer timetable for his return can be established. Westburg suffered the injury on July 31.
The Mitchell Trubisky Injury Could Be Bad News For Ravens, Chargers
The Buffalo Bills string of bad luck continued, as quarterback Mitchell Trubisky reportedly suffered a knee injury during their preseason battle against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The team announced that the quarterback is week-to-week, meaning he could miss the start of the season. Josh Allen is the unquestioned starter in Buffalo so, in a perfect world, Trubisky’s ailment won’t impact on the on-field product once the regular season begins. However, head coach Sean McDermott has always emphasized the backup quarterback job, which means they could be in the market for another passer.
Recently DFA'd Cubs reliever could help stabilize Orioles' struggling bullpen
By now, it's no secret that Brandon Hyde is struggling to find relievers he can trust. Craig Kimbrel started the season as the Orioles' closer but despite a solid first couple months, lost his grip on the job. After giving Yennier Cano a few save chances, the team named recently-acquired Seranthony Dominguez their closer.

Ravens fans nearly had a meltdown at NFL insider's Lamar Jackson-related tweet
There's nothing quite like a jump scare on a Monday afternoon but that's what Baltimore Ravens fans experienced when Tom Pelissero sent out a tweet that said "Lamar Jackson has been waived/injured." This would make anyone do a double-take because why on earth would the Ravens waive Jackson, who is...
Review: PILLAR RABBIT Hops Lively At Spotlighters through Sunday, August 25th
The Baltimore Playwrights Festival tradition continues at Spotlighters Theatre in Baltimore. Pillar Rabbit is an entertaining title that reveals little about the show, so I'm in for a surprise. I’m excited to learn that Opening Night is sold out. Play festivals can be a hard sell, since audiences perforce don’t know what they’re getting. For reviewers, however, we are at the very least assured of not sitting through yet another production of that thing we’ve seen several times already.
Orioles Reliever Responds After Giving Up Walk-Off HR
A walk-off home run for Francisco Alvarez and the New York Mets represents the first real mistake by Seranthony Dominguez since landing with the Baltimore Orioles at the trade deadline. He couldn’t deliver in the bottom of the ninth of the August 19 loss. Dominguez threw a 97.9 mph...

Former Baltimore State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby appeals mortgage fraud, perjury convictions
BALTIMORE -- Calling the prosecution "ill-advised," former Baltimore City State's Attorney Marilyn Mosby is appealing her mortgage fraud and perjury convictions. In June, Mosby said she would be appealing the convictions, and on Monday she submitted a 69-page brief, formally putting the appeal into motion. Instead of prison time, Mosby was sentenced in May to three years of supervised release, 12 months of home confinement, and ordered to perform 100 hours of community service. Mosby also filed for an appeal to get a Florida condo back, which she had to forfeit along with 90% of the proceeds. She was first indicted in January 2022 and pushed for two separate trials. The first jury found her guilty of perjury for lying to make withdrawals from a retirement account. The second found she committed mortgage fraud for lying on documents about a $5,000 gift her then-husband, Baltimore City Council President Nick Mosby, gave her to close on a Florida vacation home.
Baltimore nonprofit packs food and school supplies for children in need
BALTIMORE -- A Baltimore nonprofit is packing food and school supplies for children in need as the new school year approaches. According to state data, one in three Marylanders faces food insecurity.
