Ford Taurus Interceptor (Marked Slicktop)
Vehicle #44
Picture Date: 01/10/2013
This Ford Taurus Interceptor slicktop is owned by the Maine State Police. It was spotted parked at the Maine Criminal Justice Academy in Vassalboro.
An interesting piece of information I learned was that the Maine State Police do not have any roof mounted lightbars on their vehicles, they are all slicktops.

Henryton State Hospital is a now-closed hospital complex in Marriottsville, in southern Carroll County, Maryland, just across the Howard County line. The complex is located within Patapsco Valley State Park and along its southern end runs CSX's Old Main Line Subdivision and is very close to the Henryton Tunnel. The Henryton State Hospital center, or the Henryton Tuberculosis Sanatorium as it was called, was erected in 1922 by the Maryland Board of Mental Hygiene. It was established as a facility to treat African Americans suffering from tuberculosis.[1] This was one of the first such facilities in Maryland erected to provide African Americans with the same level of treatment as whites.
The original complex opened in 1922 and consisted of 6 main buildings and one utility plant. These buildings were erected between the years of 1921 and 1923. The establishment of the Henryton Sanatorium was one of the final steps in Maryland’s program to treat all of the state's tubercular patients. In the late twenties and early thirties the tuberculosis rate among African Americans in Maryland was quadruple what the rate was among whites.[1] This placed a heavy burden on the hospital to deal with the increasing number of patients. In 1938 the hospital was budgeted $270,000 for the construction of new buildings to house 200 more patients.[1] The new buildings roughly doubled the size of the overall facility, and several more municipal buildings added even more space to the complex. However, by the time the new buildings were completed in 1946, the tuberculosis rates had dropped, leaving much more room than was necessary.
In the decades since the facility’s closure, the Henryton State Hospital complex has become a haven for vandals, drifters, and drug addicts. The façade of most of the buildings have been extensively damaged and are covered in graffiti. Most of the windows have been broken out, making the grounds around the hospital very dangerous. The doors to all of the buildings have been broken in, allowing access to the inside. Although the furnishings and equipment were removed before the facility closed, there is still remarkable damage from people going through. Henryton has been the site of many suspicious fires since its closure, the most well-known of them taking place in the early morning of December 19, 2007.[citation needed] Henryton caught fire on April 28, 2011.[2] Initial speculation of this fire was believed to be suspicious in nature, but after fire marshalls conducted their investigation, it was believed to have been sparked by a lightning strike in the roof area.[citation needed] Firefighters arrived on the scene with heavy fire throughout the roof. Severe storms had passed through the area during the time that the fire was reported.
Henryton has suffered from extensive damage over the years
In this incident, the auditorium and cafeteria sections of the complex were engulfed with flames. The blaze took 80 firefighters from 3 counties to extinguish. The burned areas have since been demolished and removed. The 2011 fire affected the Physician and Nurses Cottage, destroying the roof. Visiting the Henryton State Hospital complex without the expressed written consent of the Maryland DHMH is trespassing, but the possible charges and fines seem not to deter most vandals. However, the decades of wear on the buildings without maintenance and the presence of large quantities of asbestos make Henryton a dangerous place to explore.
Since its closing, many attempts to purchase the land have been made, but most potential buyers, after having been approved to buy, have had their proposal for usage vetoed by local government and the like.[citation needed] The land on which the old Henryton Center rests goes on the market occasionally (every 5–6 years or so) and then is removed from the market. The state of Maryland spends a large amount of money to maintain the property minimally and occasionally patrol, and it is an expense that the state seems eager to be rid of.

Someone burgled a neighbour's truck so the State Police Officer was going around the neighbourhood asking if anyone had seen a suspicious person in the area. We didn't see anyone, but this crime happened in the late hours so we wouldn't be able to see over to the neighbours, it's too dark out here in the country.

Central State Hospital (CSH), located in Milledgeville, Georgia, was the state's largest facility for treatment of mental illness and developmental disabilities. The CSH complex currently encompasses about 1,750 acres. Originally Georgia State Lunatic, Idiot, and Epileptic Asylum and was also known as the Georgia State Sanitarium and Milledgeville State Hospital during its history.
The facility offers short-stay acute treatment for people with mental illness, residential units and rehabilitation programs for people with developmental disabilities, recovery programs that require a longer stay, and specialized skilled and ICF nursing centers. Some programs serve primarily the central-Georgia region while other programs serve counties throughout the state.
In the first decades of the 19th century there was a movement in several states to reform prisons, create public schools, and establish state-run hospitals for the mentally ill. In 1837, the Georgia State Legislature responded to a call from Governor Wilson Lumpkin, by passing a bill calling for the creation of a "State Lunatic, Idiot, and Epileptic Asylum." Located in Milledgeville, then the state capital, the facility opened in 1842.
Under Dr. Thomas A. Green, 1845 to 1879, care of patients was based on the "institution as family". This modeled hospitals to resemble an extended family. Green ate with staff and patients daily and abolished chain and rope restraints.
The hospital population grew to nearly 12,000 in the 1960s. During the following decade, the population began to decrease due to the emphasis on deinstitutionalization, the addition of other public psychiatric hospitals throughout the state, the availability of psychotropic medications, an increase in community mental health programs, and many individuals moving to community living arrangements. During 2004-2005, the hospital served more than 9,000 consumers from nearly every Georgia county.
In 2010, the Georgia Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Disabilities announced that the hospital would be closed.
Unit D6 9, (Troop D, 6: New Castle County.) On its final day at the Fleet Garage in the Butler Barracks. With 122,718 miles, she is put out of service two days before this was taken. PSP's cutoff was 100,000 until budgetary issues moved it to 125,000. As far as I know, this is the last Ford Crown Victoria on the Western side of the state, for the Eastern side holds them for a long time.

At the state fair this year, I decided to concentrate on getting candid shots of the fair goers instead of the food, music and othher activities of the fair itself.
As it has done since 1904, the most recent South Carolina State Fair opened on October 11, 2023 at the fairgrounds on Rosewood Drive. In Columbia. Only during the 1918 national influenza outbreak has the fair not operated in South Carolina. (In 2020, there was a "fair food" festival held during the Covid outbreak instead of the traditional fair where cars could drive through the fairgrounds parking lot and order fair food from their vehicle.)
The South Carolina State Fair is a self-supporting 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

I never seem to be able to capture fall as I envision it in my mind! Made a drive out to northern New Jersey near dusk to see if I could capture some vibrant colors. A few probable reminders to myself. Fall colors seem better at daybreak. Go earlier in the season for peak fall. Do something with all the empty space in the sky to add more depth to photos.
I felt it was only appropriate while here in Colorado shooting their wildflowers to upload their state flower first, a wildflower itself...the majestic Rocky Mountain Columbine.

Sunset at Pescadero State Beach, CA. This is a wonderful beach and I will definitely have to explore it further. I arrived a little later than usual and only had time to scout about half of the beach. Plenty of interesting shooting locations. The only problem is they apparently ticket you if you stay more than 30 mins after sunset. I guess I better pay closer attention to the signs next time! © 2009 Jay Tankersley. All rights reserved.

When bubonic plague struck Sydney in 1900, George McCredie was appointed by the Government to take charge of all quarantine activities in the Sydney area, beginning work on March 23, 1900. At the time of his appointment, McCredie was an architect and consulting engineer with offices in the Mutual Life of New York Building in Martin Place. McCredie's appointment was much criticised in Parliament, though it was agreed later that his work was successful.
