St. Georges Bridge to close one direction at a time for weeks

Weeks of traffic restrictions on the St. Georges Bridge begin in a matter of hours, with drivers losing access to one direction of the bridge at a time through mid-December. The first closure will affect southbound traffic beginning Nov. 9 and is expected to last until Nov. 30, though the schedule is subject to change. Once that work is completed, crews will switch sides, closing northbound traffic until about mid-December. Bicyclists and emergency vehicles will continue to have access during the closures, according to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which said it will keep the Delaware Department of Transportation updated on the work. The 84-year-old steel tied-arch bridge carries U.S. Route 13 across the Chesapeake & Delaware Canal in St. Georges.

Liquified manure, wads of uneaten hay, gallons of sour milk and juices from rotting cow carcasses.

Eastern Shore winner claims FAST PLAY ticket worth $1.4 million

CHESTER — A Queen Anne’s County Maryland Lottery player using the nickname Eastern Shore Millionaire was understandably in shock on Oct. 15 when he realized that he won a FAST PLAY 20X Cash progressive jackpot worth $1,452,675. The entrepreneur told Lottery officials that he had been playing that game for months. After purchasing this ticket, he scanned it and realized he had won something but didn’t think it was the progressive jackpot. He scanned it a few more times and then noticed that the progressive jackpot on the $20 game had reset back to $300,000, which is the game’s base amount after someone has won a progressive jackpot. That’s when he started to believe it was real. “I called my mom right away,” he said. “She was in shock, too.” His next move was to put the ticket in a safe and call a lawyer and accountant for advice. He plans to invest some of his windfall but also wants to take a long-awaited vacation. But, to start, he took his mom to dinner after claiming the prize at Lottery headquarters in Baltimore on Nov. 5. “He works so hard,” his mom said. “He truly deserves this.” The ticket was

DIAA 3A Playoff Scenarios entering Week 11

We know the 8 teams who will make up the Class 3A field, but there's still room for a lot of changes in the order. The simplest solution would be Middletown defeating Appoquinimink on Friday night to clinch Class 3A-1 directly, and not avoid a tiebreaker, which they'd still win unless they gave up at least 32 points to the Jags in a loss.
