 Baltimore City Paper: NEWS Unflappable Esther Martin Has Run the Club Charles Since 1951. Who Better to Tell of Her ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Martin has mellowed some with age, but she still occasionally displays what Waters calls a "cheerfully foul mouth," the by-product of a life in the saloon trade.
Martin posits with full salty-tongued bravado that Shecter was turning up the regulatory heat in order to force her out and nab the bar's liquor license for himself (a charge Shecter denies).
Ask Esther Martin what the main problem is along the streets beyond her bar's window today, and she answers quickly, resolutely: "The bums." This might seem a strange response from a woman who was accused of attracting bums to the area 20 years ago, but it cuts to the core of issues before the neighborhood.

Martin said block scheduling gives students more breadth by allowing them to take more courses, but less depth because students take a class only for a semester rather than for an entire year.
About 10 years ago, block scheduling was an emerging trend across the country, with half of all high schools either using or considering some form of block scheduling.
Martin went to the school, met with the students and set up a schedule of meetings with each grade level to answer questions.

 Lockheed Martin F-16E/F Block 60/62 Fighting Falcon
Lockheed Martin was a contender for the JAST project, and since the delta-winged F-16 could outperform the JAST in virtually every aspect except stealth and for considerably less money, the company might end up competing against itself.
The Block 60/62 would be largely based on the earlier Block 50/52, but would have an internal targeting and navigation system similar to LANTIRN but with only the sensor heads outside the aircraft.
In 2003, the Block 60 was redesignated F-16E/F, in recognition of the major structural, avionics and propulsion system advancements, which make the Block 60 a practically new version of the F-16.

 [No title]
Martin's Block which was looked upon as fire-proof, is nothing but a heap of bricks and other debris.
The walls, even, are not left standing,--proving the fierceness of the flames or the ill construction of the boasted "fire-proof." The rest of the blocks burned were of wood, and of course with the wind blowing the hurricane that it did, were licked up by the devouring element like tinder.
It then took Martin's Block, in which were the following stores and offices: Blake's Hardware & Cutlery store; Martin Bro's Bank, and also, their Dry Goods and Ready-Made Clothing Store; Angel & Phelps, and Cary & Bolls' Law Office, and a furniture wareroom.
