After Linganore became Frederick County's first state champion in girls flag football, coach Brian Sweene, senior quarterback Lexi Petrie and sophomore receiver/defensive back Makenna Roberts are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast. The trio chats with host Greg Swatek about the Lancers 26-6 victory over Calvert in the state final at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. What was it like for them to play on that type of stage? What was the significance to them of being the first state champs in county history for girls flag football? Petrie and Roberts also talk about why they decided to play girls flag football, and Sweene explains why he decided to coach it. How far has the team and the sport come in the three years it has been played on the high-school level in Frederick County? What does the future look like for the team and the players? Prior to that conversation, FNP sports reporter Alexander Dacy joins Greg to discuss soccer state finals for the Brunswick boys and the Oakdale girls, a state volleyball final for Urbana and Middletown's shocking forfeit out of the high school football playoffs. They also look ahead to this week's state football quarterfinals for Linganore, Oakdale, Urbana and Walkersville.

We chat about a few new restaurants to check out around town, plus a few high-profile closures on this week's Access Louisville podcast. To start off the show, we discuss the long-rumored return of Papalinos, a Highlands pizza joint that closed more than a decade ago but everyone remembers fondly. As of Nov. 10, it's back, this time at 1022 Clarks Lane, explains LBF Restaurant Reporter Michael L. Jones. Original chef Allan Rosenberg along with notable restaurant owner Fred Pizzonia are behind the revival, which replaces The Dirty Bird, a chicken and bluegrass restaurant also co-owned by the pair as well. This is actually one of a few moves the pair are making with their restaurants, which Jones goes over on the show (you can also read more in the link above.)After that, Digital Editor Zak Owens is on the show to talk about the demise of Against the Grain's flagship restaurant at Louisville Slugger Field. Founders Jerry Gnagy and Sam Cruz said the decision was driven by the end of the lease term and a desire to focus more fully on the company's beverage manufacturing operations. “The last 14 years have been a blast-and-a-half with so many great people … It's all been a heckuva ride,” Gnagy and Cruz wrote on Facebook. “There are no heavy hearts or regrets, only a million great memories.”Jones also tells us about Adrienne and Kris Cole, the husband-and-wife team behind The House of Marigold, which is opening a second location at 624 E. Market St. in the NuLu neighborhood in spring 2026. This will be the second House of Marigold restaurant to open in less than four years. The Coles launched their flagship Middletown restaurant at 10310 Shelbyville Road in 2023 and quickly earned accolades, including Southern Living's “Best New Restaurant in Kentucky.”We also chat about Pasta Garage Café & Market, an Italian restaurant based in Lexington, opening a Louisville location this week at 552 E. Market St. in the Gateway to NuLu building. We go over the recent closure of The Silver Dollar — a celebrated bourbon bar. The bar had been open since 2011 and made the announcement earlier this week.And we chat about Serai, a new Malaysian restaurant coming to 2311 Frankfort Avenue in early 2026. Louisville Business First previously reported that the restaurant in that space now, DiFabio's, owned by husband-and-wife duo Caitland DiFabio and Jon Riley, will close at the end of December.After that we have a brief discussion on Kentucky's role in the hemp industry and how that may change due to federal legislation which passed alongside the bill to reopen the government.Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Some Middletown Police officers had to make an unusual rescue using a garden hose as a lasso! STORY: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5VvJYpihZmY

In the swirling vortex of MLB free agency speculation, few names ignite Ohioan hearts quite like Kyle Schwarber's. The burly left-handed slugger, fresh off another cannonball season with the Phillies—where he mashed 47 homers and drew walks like a magnet—has suddenly become the belle of the Reds' rumor ball. As the 2025-26 offseason heats up, Cincinnati's front office, under Nick Krall's steady hand, is reportedly eyeing a seismic shift: luring Schwarber home to the banks of the Ohio River. Born in Middletown, just a stone's throw from Great American Ball Park, Schwarber's Midwestern roots make this feel less like a signing and more like a homecoming barbecue. The chatter kicked off in late October, fueled by anonymous whispers from "NL Central insiders" at the Winter Meetings prelude. Picture this: Schwarber, the ultimate three-true-outcomes beast (home runs, walks, strikeouts), slotting into the Reds' revamped lineup alongside Elly De La Cruz's fireworks and Matt McLain's grit. Great American, with its short porches and hitter-friendly confines, could turn Schwarber into a 50-homer demigod, boosting a rotation still smarting from Hunter Greene's injury woes. Rumor has it the Reds are dangling a five-year, $125 million pact—player-friendly opt-outs included—to outbid suitors like the Cubs (ironic family reunion?) or Yankees, who crave his October thunder. But oh, the caveats! Schwarber's defensive "adventures" in left field—more adventure than acumen—might clash with the Reds' youth movement. And at 33, is he the long-term anchor or a bridge to contention? Fans in Cincy dream of him launching moonshots over the river, channeling Pete Rose's fire with modern power. Yet skeptics point to Philly's reluctance to let him walk, given his clubhouse glue role. If it happens, it's poetic: the Middletown Hammer returning to swing for the fences in red. For now, it's all smoke and mirrors—delicious, Reds-tinted smoke. Will it ignite? Stay tuned; the hot stove's just warming up. Music from #InAudio: https://inaudio.org/ Track Name Holy (Trap).

The Trump administration has moved to axe many Biden-era green initiatives. One project impacted is in Middletown, Ohio — the hometown of Vice President JD Vance.

Also on the show: collective bargaining rights for Uber and Lyft drivers and a U.S.-Australia alliance concerning rare earth metals.

Earlier this year, President Donald Trump signed an executive order stopping subsidies for renewable energy sources like wind and solar power. He has called attempts to boost green energy in the US the "Green New Scam". We head to Middletown, Ohio, where a hydrogen-powered furnace for the steel mill, which was subsidised under the Biden administration, has been cancelled under President Trump. Supporters of the new furnace say it would have made a much cleaner plant in the town and created many jobs. We hear from residents, community leaders, and economists, and ask - what happens when industry clashes with politics?If you'd like to get in touch with the programme, our email address is businessdaily@bbc.co.ukPresenter: Erin Delmore Producer: Nathalie Jimenez(Picture: Cleveland-Cliffs Middletown Works in Middletown, Ohio, in 2024.

Over the past 10 years, Middletown-based AI Engineers has more than tripled in size. The architecture, construction, and engineering firm has grown from 90 employees to 350 in the U.S., with an additional and 70 employees working overseas. And annual revenue from $18 million to $77 million. Now factor in the speed of technological change, the challenge of finding qualified new employees, and the need to manage a multi-generational workforce. So how does a mid-sized company navigate that much change successfully? “We're known for agility and rapid decision-making,” Tariq Islam, AI Engineers' new chief of staff, said during a conversation on the CBIA BizCast. “So we're able to react a lot quicker than a lot of other organizations, and that kind of sets us apart for a company of our size—our ability satisfy the customer.” “Plus, we're always looking for new technology to implement quickly. We leverage partnerships to find qualified engineers and we're very focused on succession planning,” he added. Seven years ago, the company established a group of 15 people to look for new technology from start-ups, pilot programs, and places outside their industry. “We were early investors in drones,” said Tariq's father Abul Islam, who founded the company in 1993. “We're always looking for new trends and ways to create operational efficiencies.” With new technology comes a new workforce with new skills, Tariq said. To find qualified civil engineers, the company partners with academic institutions to attract graduate and international students. They also rely on statewide resources, including support from CBIA on immigration licenses. “We have a whole program in place for helping engineers from overseas get their Connecticut licenses, as well as licenses in other states,” Abul Islam said. “It doesn't matter where they get their degrees from, it's the war of talent right now.” And as it seeks out new technology, the company tries to recruit employees from startups and pilot programs. “We've been successful at recruiting people as we find new technology,” Tariq Islam noted. The challenge of connecting different generations of employees is one that the company has taken head on. “A lot of institutional knowledge comes from the employees of my father's generation,” Tariq Islam said. “And there's a collaborative spirit that the younger generation brings—they have different styles of working.” Bridging the knowledge and technology gap is a process that takes time, father and son agreed. But sometimes innovation comes from a simple place. “You basically have to get everybody into a room and let them talk to each other so they can understand different perspectives,” he said. “Then it happens.” Related Links: AI Engineers Website: https://www.aiengineers.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/ai-engineers-inc/ Abul Islam LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/abulislam/ Tariq Islam LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tislam410/ CBIA Website: https://www.cbia.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cbia/ The CBIA BizCast is made possible through the generous support of Google.

From playing with boys on the playground at recess, she went on to play women's tackle football for the CT Wreckers of the Independent Women's Football League and the DC Divas of the Women's Football Alliance Pro Division, in addition to a stint on Team USA for the International Federation of American Football Women's Tackle World Championship in Vantaa, Finland during the summer of 2022. She talks about those experiences, as well as meeting her wife, Sara, on the women's tackle football circuit, and coaching the junior-varsity boys team at Wilde Lake High School, where she currently works. How was she received there by the players, administration and other coaches? Thacker also talks about her team at Middletown this season, adjusting to coaching flag football and what would constitute a successful season for the Knights. Prior to that discussion, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to review Week 2 of the high school football season, look ahead to Week 3 and look over the rest of the fall sports landscape in Frederick County.

In the heart of Middletown, Virginia, a beloved historic landmark is experiencing a renaissance. The Wayside Inn, a fixture of the Shenandoah Valley for over two centuries, is now home to Clem's Kitchen—a new restaurant venture by Bill and Amanda Whitson. In this episode of “The Valley Business Today,” host Janet Michael, joined by Carl Knoblock of the Small Business Administration, sat down with the Whitsons to discuss their journey, vision, and the challenges of breathing new life into a storied space. From Food Truck AND Brick-and-Mortar Many locals know Bill from Billy Sous food truck and Amanda from her work as a real estate agent. But together, they are embarking on a new chapter as restaurateurs. The idea to open Clem's Kitchen in the Wayside Inn was born from Amanda's deep personal connection to the building—she worked there as a teenager, her first office perched above the original well of Middletown. Bill, initially hesitant to return to restaurant life after the freedom of the food truck, was ultimately swayed by Amanda's passion and the unique magic of the space. The transition from food truck to restaurant is an unusual one, as Bill notes—most often, it's the other way around. Yet, the Whitsons see the move as an opportunity to create a community hub, offering a modern twist on Southern classics while maintaining the beloved food truck in the parking lot. Their vision is to foster a welcoming environment where locals can gather, celebrate, and enjoy good food. A Space for Community and Collaboration Clem's Kitchen is more than just a restaurant; it's a catalyst for community engagement. The Whitsons have already hosted events, including a Bridgerton-themed Sweet 16 and upcoming weddings, and they're eager to share their expansive kitchen with other food entrepreneurs. Recognizing the challenges faced by small food businesses—especially the need for commercial kitchen space—they hope to support local vendors, caterers, and food trucks, even considering the possibility of a nonprofit kitchen model in the future. The couple's commitment to giving back is evident in their launch of a community fridge, inspired by similar initiatives in nearby Winchester. By providing access to fresh, healthy food for those in need, they are addressing food insecurity and encouraging others to contribute. “Garbage cans aren't the place for food. Hungry people are the place for food,” Bill reflects, underscoring their philanthropic philosophy. Honoring History, Embracing Change The Wayside Inn's transformation is both respectful of its past and optimistic about its future. The Whitsons have painstakingly cleaned and renovated the space, preserving historic elements like the Tavern sign while introducing a brighter, more vibrant atmosphere. Amanda's stories of the building's previous owner, Leo Bernstein, and his contributions to the community—donating historic properties for a dollar, supporting the arts—highlight the legacy they hope to continue. Clem's Kitchen will initially serve breakfast Thursday through Sunday, with plans to expand as the community responds. The menu promises Southern staples with creative flair, family-friendly touches like a kids' corner and tableside chocolate milk service, and a flexible approach to dinner offerings, including pop-up events and evolving dishes based on customer feedback. Navigating Challenges and Looking Ahead Opening a restaurant in a historic building comes with its share of hurdles, from deep cleaning to navigating regulations. The Whitsons credit their supportive landlord and collaborative relationships with local agencies for easing the process. Still, they acknowledge the broader challenges faced by small businesses, particularly the burden of compliance with regulations designed for much larger companies. Carl encourages business owners to advocate for change by reaching out to elected officials, emphasizing the importance of community voices in shaping policy. As Clem's Kitchen prepares to open its doors, the Whitsons are optimistic about the future—not just for their business, but for Middletown as a whole. They envision the restaurant as a gathering place that honors the town's history, supports its residents, and inspires others to invest in the community. “This town deserves that,” Bill says. “You need to make good food. You need to give them a reason to come back.” With their passion, experience, and commitment to service, Bill and Amanda Whitson are poised to make Clem's Kitchen a cornerstone of Middletown's revitalization—one meal, one event, and one act of kindness at a time.

The New Cumberland Music and Film Festival is returning this year, celebrating the best of local talent alongside globally recognized films and performances. Skye Cadzow, producer of the festival, describes it as “a celebration of all things culture and arts, bringing both local talents and global pieces that are being celebrated around the world to the stage right here in central Pennsylvania.” The festival began in 2022, with its first event taking place in September 2023. “A few of us in the nonprofit, the New Cumberland Collective, started talking about how we wanted to bring some of these elements that we love in pop culture together, start creating a film festival,” Cadzow said. “Last year we ran it back and added even more components… this year we're really thrilled to take things in a slightly new direction.” This year’s theme centers on “small groups that can make a difference,” featuring documentaries like Middletown, which follows teenagers uncovering a toxic waste scandal in New York, and Speak, which highlights five students competing in national oratory contests. Cadzow said, “The teacher who was part of this project [in Middletown] is actually gonna be at the film to do a Q&A on Friday night following this screening. So, we're thrilled to have that.” The festival will also showcase its first non-documentary film, OBEX, a Sundance favorite, with director Albert Burney and other filmmakers participating in a post-screening Q&A.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the Shenandoah Valley, NW Works has quietly transformed lives for 55 years, championing adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities through programs that foster independence, employment, and a sense of belonging. In this episode of The Valley Today, host Janet Michael visits NW Works for a conversation with CEO Skip Philips and Communications Coordinator, Morgan Towle.  This year, the organization marks a milestone: the 10th annual Farm to Table event, a unique fundraiser that has become a beloved tradition for locals and supporters alike. Hosted on the charming Church Street in Middletown, the Farm to Table event is more than just a meal—it's a celebration of community spirit and local bounty. Long tables adorned with linens and fresh flowers stretch beneath the open sky, where guests enjoy a feast crafted from locally sourced ingredients, courtesy of Schaffer's Barbecue and other regional partners. The event offers both general admission and VIP experiences, the latter providing early access, reserved seating, and exclusive tastings, all while connecting attendees with NW Works' leadership and mission. Behind the festivities lies a deeper purpose. Proceeds from Farm to Table help fund NW Works' essential services, from their day program and community garden to workforce training and facility upgrades. Skip and Morgan emphasize that these programs not only build skills and confidence for nearly 250 individuals each year but also create opportunities for meaningful employment and community engagement. The organization's partnerships with local businesses, schools, and nonprofits ensure that clients are supported at every stage, whether they're learning new skills, volunteering, or earning their first paycheck. The event's popularity is a testament to its impact—tickets sell out quickly, and sponsorships from small businesses and individuals alike help make the evening possible. For those unable to attend, NW Works offers the option to sponsor a client's ticket or contribute through donations and volunteerism, reinforcing the message that everyone has something valuable to contribute. As NW Works looks to the future, the Farm to Table event stands as a shining example of what can be achieved when a community comes together to support inclusion, empowerment, and shared success.

The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. The cold-blooded world of organized crime in Rhode Island once felt untouchable, hidden behind the stoic façades of social clubs and whispered conversations. But thanks to retired State Police Major Anthony M. Pesare, those dark corners are being pulled into the light, on the page, in the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Pesare, who served with distinction in the Rhode Island State Police for 24 years, spent a portion of his career inside the elite Intelligence Unit, investigating the Mafia, political corruption, and cold murder cases. His real-life experience forms the basis for his gripping novels They Always Win: Inspired by a True Story and Back in the Game, both part of the Gino Peterson series. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast interview, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and more podcast platforms. “I've seen firsthand how the lines can blur between the law and the people we're chasing,” Pesare explains in the popular Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast. “The work we did wasn't just about arrests. It was about uncovering the truth, no matter how cold or hidden it was.” Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . A Murder That Went Cold One of the true cases that inspired They Always Win revolves around Frank “Bobo” Marrapese, a notorious enforcer for the Patriarca crime family. The case centered on the 1975 murder of mob associate Richard “Dickie” Callei, who was shot inside Marrapese's Acorn Social Club on Providence's Federal Hill and buried near a golf course in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. That case went cold, until the relentless work of detectives like Pesare brought it back to life. “Marrapese was feared. He was brutal. But he wasn't above the law,” Pesare said. “We had to work those cold trails, use every angle. Eventually, we got there.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Marrapese, who later died in prison while serving time for murder, racketeering, and extortion, was part of a broader criminal network that ruled much of New England's underworld for decades. The Patriarca Family: Crime and Influence The Patriarca crime family, also known as the New England Mafia, has long been an institution in organized crime history. Founded under Raymond L.S. Patriarca, the organization held power throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. At its peak, the family included over 100 made men and thrived off illegal gambling, loan-sharking, pornography, and stolen goods trafficking. The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. While the family has fractured and declined, its influence and legacy still cast a long shadow over Rhode Island's law enforcement history. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Fiction Mirrors Fact. Anthony wrote two books about his experience, "They Always Win: Inspired by a True Story" and "Back in the Game: A Gino Peterson Novel", you can get more information about those books on Amazon, also be sure to check out his website. In They Always Win, protagonist Gino Peterson walks a razor's edge between loyalty and justice. “I wanted to tell a story that captures the emotional complexity,” says Pesare. “Gino's not just fighting the mob, he's fighting his own past.” Raised in the same neighborhoods as the people he later investigates, Gino's journey mirrors Pesare's own. The novel explores Gino's internal battle and the political red tape that threatens to derail major cases. It's a story as much about identity and sacrifice as it is about the law. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. And while it's fiction, the core truths are based in reality. “Some names are changed, sure,” Pesare shares, “but the tactics, the betrayals, the pressure, that's all real.” The Mafia and State Police, Cold Murders and Other Crimes. Back in the Game In the sequel "Back in the Game", Gino Peterson is once again deep inside the criminal underworld, but this time, his enemy might be someone he once called a friend. A man from Gino's old neighborhood, resurfaces on the opposite side of the law. As both men wrestle with the need to belong and the consequences of their choices, their lives move toward a violent and inevitable collision. “It's a book about redemption, about proving yourself, to the world and to yourself,” Pesare says. Real Justice, Real Experience Pesare's law enforcement background is extensive. Beyond his time as Major in the Rhode Island State Police, he served as Chief of Police in Middletown, and was Dean of the School of Justice Studies at Roger Williams University.

In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins welcomes Anthony Pesare, a retired Rhode Island State Police Intelligence officer turned crime novelist. Gary and Anthony dive into the notorious Providence neighborhood of Federal Hill, a hotbed of mob activity. Anthony offers first-hand stories of surveillance, navigating tight-knit communities, and the challenge of identifying criminals who blend seamlessly into everyday life. He based his recent true-crime novel, They Always Win, on the exploits of Frank “Bobo” Marrapese Jr., a member of the New England Mafia Family led by Raymond Patriarca in the Federal Hill neighborhood. Anthony also wrote Back in the Game in his series on Gino Peterson, a Rhode Island State trooper investigating organized crime. He recounts one of his most notable cases involving a coin shop owner named Stephen Saccoccia, who orchestrated a sophisticated multimillion-dollar money laundering scheme using “Smurfs” to move drug money back to Colombia. When a low-level Providence area mobster tried to move in and extract a tribute, Saccoccia made one phone call, and the guy backed off. It's a fascinating look into how organized crime adapts and evades detection. After retiring from law enforcement, Anthony served as a professor and dean at Roger Williams University before returning to police work as the Chief of Police in  Middletown, Rhode Island. These experiences further enriched his understanding of police culture—something he brings vividly to life in his fiction. His debut novel, They Always Win, features Detective Gino Peterson, a character shaped by Anthony's real-world insights. Through Gino, Anthony explores themes like addiction, loyalty, and psychological strain—pressures many officers face behind the badge. The novel includes storylines inspired by the murder of mob figure Richard “Dickey” Calley, with confidential informants and witness protection playing key roles in the investigation. Gary and Anthony's conversation blends crime history, insider law enforcement tales, and the craft of crime fiction. They reflect on the bonds between officers, the emotional toll of the job, and the blurred lines between fact and fiction when writing from experience. Don't miss this episode if you're fascinated by mob history, police intelligence work, or how real investigations can fuel gripping crime novels. Subscribe to get gangster stories weekly.
