2 years old. that is when she starts to produce milk. ideally she will produce milk for 10 months. meanwhile you breed her back, a couple of months after she calfs, so she is pregnant most of the time that she is producing milk. you give her 60 days of a vacation, because cows don't take a vacation. so then you give them a 60 day dry period where they prepare for their next calf. the cycle starts

a calm 63 miles per hour on 95 through howard county. but we do have quite a few incidents to talk about. we did have construction that wrapped up pretty late this morning. that is definitely causing a few people to be pretty annoyed traveling on southbound 95, right at the fort mchenry tunnel. 895, through the harbor tunnel is going to be the better bet for the alternate route, because it's going to be sluggish from the eastern avenue area. on 95 moving farther up through baltimore county on the whitemarsh, there it is on the southbound and northbound lanes we're accumulating a lot of volume, especially on the southbound side heading toward 695. on the top of the beltway, we cleared out a crash at perring parkway, but it's going to be slow go from towson leading to the previous scene. on

of 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. throughout the county. drivers going at 12 miles above the speed limit would get a $40 fine, no points on the license. the estimates have the county bringing in millions if this approved. >> i don't understand. they say in is a revenue generator for baltimore county when at the end of the day it's about protecting our children. >> reporter: critics say that is about a money maker for the county, not safety at all. they point that the cameras issue tickets to the regterred owners. but there's a $23 million difference what baltimore county was expecting to get from the state and what he they will get from the state. they're trying to make up the money anyway possible. some traffic right now. these are the numbers we will get this time in traffic, once again, 40

>> delegate mcdonough and kirk anderson join us for today's house spotlight. >> talk about the impact the death of the senator kennedy on the debate. >> the debate started in the 1910s and 1920s and roosevelt was president of the united states. it continued on with nixon who tried to come up with a progressive healthcare plan. a plan that kennedy voted against. it came again in 1994, when president clinton presented his healthcare plan, and it was those two efforts that kennedy really tried or had said in thinks memoirs that were the most important things during his life in congress. the 3rd one, though, was going to be barack obama healthcare plan. that is the one that kennedy felt. that is the reason he worked for obama, because he felt this would be chance to get universal health care through the united states congress. >> let me bring in delegate mcdonough, what do you think the impact will be on the whole debate? >> at this point in time, zero. historically, ted kennedy has been for universal big healthcare plan. he has been one of the most effective senators for all of the causes that i don't support, give credit where credit is due. what has been interesting over the 46 years that he has supported big government universal healthcare, he has not been able to be successful at achieving it even when there were democrat presidents lick le jimmy carter and bill clinton and he was successful in getting obama elected. i think will be an attempt of politians to use his passing as a sort of influence on the debate. that will pass quickly because the people in congress were not elected by ted kennedy. they were elected by the voters. the sentiment of the voters is starting to have a direct impact on where we're going to go on healthcare in america. >> i do think that barack obama has learned from senator kennedy's failures in the past, with regard to healthcare in that, obama is now dealing with a healthcare issue in a way different than it was in the 1994 when it failed. he has brought on board all democrats and trying to get other republicans to be a part of this. he is not saying it's his plan. he is making it the plan of the congress. >> let's get on that point. because you're tryin talking abt bringing the two sides together. you have a lot of democrats aboard. but senator kennedy had a lot of influence with the democrats and republicans in bringing the two together. can president obama get what they need on the health care reform, without having senator kennedy helping to usher it through. >> reporter: i do think they lose something with senator kennedy, but there's blue dog democrats who are sitting on the fence or are opposed. the republicans are more strongly opposed to the plan as it emerges. eventually we may get a trojan horse which is a compromise, masquerading as a compromise but it's a dangerous bill. that is the thing i fear the most. >> we will have to this is more than my easy button. it's my "save-so-much-on- his-graphing-calculator... look. i made it say, "booger." ...i-can-get-him-a- math-tutor" button.

the state announced a tax holiday yesterday. we are joined this morning with more. good morning, to you. >> happy to be here. >> how exactly does this work? >> with the economy as it is, the individuals and businesses in some cases have fallen behind on their taxes. therefore the legislature passed a law starting today september first through the 30th, that individuals and businesses that have delinquent taxes that fell due before september first of '08 can come forward in the next 60 days with no penalty and only half of the interest rates. that is a benefit to the individuals as well as for the state to get the tax money in. >> they are hoping that these people will come forward and pay something right now because we're that far behind. >> at any point in time there's several million dollars behind on outstanding taxes. the general assembly felt that if we can get the taxes in right now, it would be good for the state and the individuals and help the collection process. >> are there enough marylanders who are behind the taxes that this could make a difference. >> even with the procedures that they have, there's going to be folks who are behind. the report this morning showed that there's 18,000 businesses, 170,000 individuals with delinquent accounts. if we can get a number of them step forward, it could help the state balance the budget. >> there's a 60 day period. how do people go and apply for this? >> what they should do go is go to the controllers website. and they should see a link for the tax amnesty program. they will have to fill out a tax amnesty and 10% of the taxes and interest that is due. get it in the door as soon as possible and get the application reviewed. that is the way to go about it. >> is this the last resort for the state. do we end up losing money or is it at least getting the original tax money in. >> all the tax money will be paid and half of the interest. it's the penalty and half of the interest being waived. i think it's still a good deal for the state and the taxpayers. >> we will get everybody know how they can find more information. you can log on to our website for more information a on the tx
