Clinton Rape Accuser Punches Back for Trump

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:00 PM PDT

During an interview today, Bill Clinton's rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick suggested the New York Times spend the same amount of energy investigating claims of sexual assault against Bill Clinton that the newspaper put into probing Donald Trump's alleged past treatment of women.

Broaddrick said she believes there is a whole generation of Millennials who are unfamiliar with Clinton's history with women. She further slammed Hillary Clinton as an "enabler" who has allowed her husband to "continue on the same path that he did back in the 70's and 80's and 90's."

Governor Hogan, Maryland Commerce Support Frito-Lay Expansion, Company to Add 140 New Jobs

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:30 PM PDT

Harford County Expansion Includes New Distribution Center, Additional Manufacturing Lines

ANNAPOLIS, MD – Governor Larry Hogan and the Maryland Department of Commerce are supporting the expansion of Frito-Lay's manufacturing and distribution center in Aberdeen, which is slated to boost the company's Harford County workforce. The Plano, Texas-based convenient foods business unit of PepsiCo, Frito-Lay is investing $122 million to construct a new 165,000 square-foot automated distribution center, upgrade its wastewater treatment system, and install two more manufacturing lines. As part of the expansion, the company plans to add 140 employees to its current Aberdeen workforce. Frito-Lay has been operating in Aberdeen since 1994 and has undergone several expansions over the past two decades.

"It is a tremendous win for the state and for Harford County that Frito-Lay is continuing to grow its presence in Maryland," said Governor Hogan. "This expansion and the jobs being created underscores our administration's promise to make Maryland more business friendly and create new opportunities for our citizens."

To assist with the expansion, the Maryland Department of Commerce has approved a $1 million conditional grant through the Maryland Economic Development Assistance Authority and Fund (MEDAAF). The company is also eligible for a number of state and local tax credits. Additionally, the Harford County Office of Economic Development is providing up to $100,000 in workforce technical training grants over the next eight years to assist with enhancing employee skills. The county is also providing assistance with permitting approvals.

"Harford County is pleased to be home to Frito-Lay's long-term investment in quality product generation and to the qualified workforce that supports the continued growth of this company which is vested in our community," said Harford County Executive Barry Glassman. "Frito-Lay is not only a national household brand but a local workforce icon here in Harford County."

"We are proud that an industry leader like Frito-Lay is continuing to invest in Maryland," said Maryland Commerce Secretary Mike Gill. "With access to one-third of the U.S. population within an overnight drive, Maryland is an ideal partner in the global supply chain. We look forward to continuing to work with Frito-Lay to make their facility here even more efficient and effective."

"Frito-Lay is a valued member of the business community in Aberdeen," said Aberdeen Mayor Patrick L. McGrady. "We are pleased to see their continued investment in the City of Aberdeen and look forward to more great years of good-paying jobs, solid community activity from the employees, and impressive operations at their state-of-the-art facility."

A Viewer Writes: Hebron Carnival

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:00 PM PDT

Hey Joe, 

We went to the Hebron Carnival this evening for our favorite Oyster sandwich only to see the ridiculous price of $9.50. This is an increase from the price last year of $8.00 .

Don't get me wrong here, it is for a good cause but I really think that is a bit extravagant. The cost of the oysters must be very high.

I wonder if other folks feel the same as I do?

This State Just Voted to Ban Abortion

Posted: 20 May 2016 07:00 PM PDT

Oklahoma lawmakers have moved to effectively ban abortion in their state by making it a felony for doctors to perform the procedure, an effort the bill's sponsor said Thursday is aimed at ultimately overturning the U.S. Supreme Court's 1973 decision that legalized abortion nationwide.

The bill , which abortion rights group Center for Reproductive Rights says is the first of its kind in the nation, also would restrict any physician who performs an abortion from obtaining or renewing a license to practice medicine in Oklahoma.

It passed 33-12 Thursday with no discussion or debate; a handful of Republicans joined with Democrats in voting against the bill sponsored by Republican Sen. Nathan Dahm. Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin, an anti-abortion Republican will withhold comment until her staff has time to review it, Fallin spokesman Michael McNutt said.

Dahm made it clear that he hopes his bill could lead to overturning Roe v. Wade.

"Since I believe life begins at conception, it should be protected, and I believe it's a core function of state government to defend that life from the beginning of conception," said Dahm, R-Broken Arrow.

Ugly Women for Trump?

Posted: 20 May 2016 06:30 PM PDT

Former Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell believes that Donald Trump will ultimately lose the support of women because of his past comments, arguing that there are "more ugly women" in the United States than attractive women.

Rendell, a former two-term governor in the Keystone State, made the remarks to the Washington Post in a piece on Trump's attempt to make inroads with suburban voters, particularly in the Philadelphia suburbs. He told the Post's Dave Weigel that for every woman he wins, he'll lose 1 1/2 or two GOP women voters.

"Will he have some appeal to working-class Dems in Levittown or Bristol? Sure," Rendell told the Post. "For every one he'll lose 1 1/2 , two Republican women. Trump's comments like 'You can't be a 10 if you're flat-chested,' that'll come back to haunt him."

"There are probably more ugly women in America than attractive women," Rendell added. "People take that stuff personally."

Transgender Bathrooms: Barack Hussein Obama Strikes Again

Posted: 20 May 2016 06:00 PM PDT

WASHINGTON, DC – The hot debates over transgender bathrooms is proving to be another example of a tempest in a teacup. Once again, our first black U.S. president Barack Hussein Obama has brewed a new distraction to occupy America by spotlighting on a minor concern and turning it into a major storm.

In a recent Wall Street Journal article, President Obama is quoted as telling public school officials, "they should permit students to use the bathroom that matches their gender identity. School districts who do not comply could face lawsuits from the federal government or a loss of federal funding."

By issuing such a threat, the President is ignoring the impact of his decree emotionally on the many other students who prefer using bathrooms limited to those representing their anatomical gender. He is also revealing a preferential commitment to a minuscule percentage of the population that "screams" to alter reality.

Author and Former Educator Joe David believes this is just another example of the multi-billion-dollar scam perpetrated by the establishment against education. By mounting this outrageous threat against the public schools, the President is diverting attention from the real problems in the schools, its failure to educate, and by so doing, encouraging its failure to continue

David points out that examples of school failure are everywhere. "Its graduates stand tall as living examples," he said. "Many students who survive the deplorable conditions in the public schools today (i.e., drugs, gang wars, incompetent teachers, and much, much more) often graduate illiterate. They are taught to spew popular propaganda, with a limited capacity to understand conceptually the significance of their thoughts and actions."

In David's novel, The Fire Within, which was published in 1981, the author exposes this horror and identifies the solution. "I believe our responsibility is to educate students – to teach them to integrate ideas, and prove them logically, to think about ideas and understand them conceptually – and not waste intelligent minds on limiting life experiences."

Although the circumstances surrounding the schools, which Joe David wrote about in the seventies and eighties have changed, it hasn't been for the better. "The current debate over transgender bathrooms in our public schools is a superb example of how far we have drifted from sensible priorities in education," he said in conclusion. "It should be a warning to the public how far our leaders are willing to go to destroy our school system."

Cooperate -- Or Else

Posted: 20 May 2016 05:00 PM PDT

The chairman of the top House investigative panel introduced a measure Wednesday to censure IRS Commissioner John Koskinen -- and remove him from office without a pension -- in the latest bid by Republicans to pressure him into being more cooperative in their probe of the 2013 IRS targeting scandal.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, head of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, is seeking Koskinen's resignation or removal for what he calls an alleged "pattern of conduct inconsistent with the trust and confidence placed in him as an officer of the United States."

If censured, Koskinen, who became commissioner in 2013, would also forfeit his government pension and other federal benefits.

House Republicans are upset with what they consider Koskinen's failure to cooperate with their investigation of Lois Lerner and other IRS officials who targeted for additional scrutiny conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status.

Chaffetz on Wednesday cited a long list of grievances in calling for the censure -- including Koskinen allegedly lying under oath, allowing "key evidence" to be destroyed by failing to comply with a subpoena and not preserving backup computer tapes that contained as many as 24,000 missing Lerner emails, allegedly destroyed by a computer malfunction.

"Koskinen must be held accountable for his misconduct," Chaffetz said in a statement. "I am committed to using every tool at my disposal to hold Mr. Koskinen responsible for his offenses."

Methodists Trying to Avoid Church Split over Gay Rights

Posted: 20 May 2016 04:30 PM PDT

Struggling to avoid a split over gay rights, the top policy-making body of the United Methodist Church on Wednesday narrowly approved a full review of all church law on sexuality, amid an emotional meeting roiled by talk of schism.

Delegates at the Methodist General Conference, meeting in Portland, Oregon, voted 428-405 to delay all consideration of LGBT-related proposals. Instead, the delegates created a commission that will spend at least two years reviewing policy on the subject, contained in the Methodist Book of Discipline, with the goal of developing a plan to address their differences.

The denomination has 12.7 million members worldwide and is the third-largest faith group in the U.S.

While other mainline Protestant groups, including the Episcopal Church and the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), have approved same-sex marriage, the Methodists have upheld a policy they adopted in 1972, calling same-gender relationships "incompatible with Christian teaching."

Advocates Call State’s Lyme Disease Legislation Historic

Posted: 20 May 2016 03:30 PM PDT

ANNAPOLIS — New legislation passed by Gov. Larry Hogan is proof that the tick that gave Baltimore Attorney Susan Green Lyme Disease, bit the wrong lady.

Green was convinced she had Lyme Disease, but she spent years trying to convince doctors of her theory. They kept pointing to four negative test results for the fastest growing vector-bourne infectious disease in the United States.

"I felt like I needed to get to the point where they would stop treating me like a hormonal crazy lady and treat me like a person who was truly sick," said Green.

Her symptoms intensified in 2007.

"I became extremely ill, I couldn't get out of bed, but I couldn't fall asleep," she remembers. "My whole body was burning like it had been doused in gasoline."

Horseshoe crab tagging program at Assateague Island Sunday

Posted: 20 May 2016 03:00 PM PDT

For a few days on either side of the full moon, due tonight, May 20, horseshoe crabs will parade (mostly two by two) ashore this weekend to conduct the business of propagating the species.

While their march to the beach may likely generate a giggle or two to mammalian eyes, as the smaller males tend to latch onto a female as she drags him ashore, the process they're engaging in is more basic: size matters.

Assateague Island Alliance volunteer Dick Arnold, who will be leading the program Sunday, said horseshoe crabs could lay 100,000 eggs at a time, and only a small percentage survive to adulthood. Survivability, he explained, is a function of how far onto land the couple can get — she to lay the eggs, and he to fertilize them externally. They wait for the full moon because of the higher tide, and the males burden the females because females of the species are bigger and stronger — so the couple can potentially reach higher ground.

The Fingerprint Lock on Your Phone Isn’t Cop-Proof

Posted: 20 May 2016 01:30 PM PDT

Law enforcement has an end run around smartphone encryption. For now.

The FBI's feud with Apple over access to Syed Farook's iPhone might never have happened if the San Bernardino, Calif., shooter had been carrying a 5S or newer. For the 250 million phones sold around the world with fingerprint authentication since 2013, law enforcement may be able to compel suspects to press their fingers to the devices and unlock them.

With minimal litigation on the books in the U.S., police and prosecutors require only a judge's blessing on a warrant for a suspect's fingerprints. So far they've used the power sparingly. But as the number of fingerprint scanners in hip pockets grows, district attorneys across the country say the technology is poised to become a major engine of evidence-gathering. "It is likely to be just a matter of time till this does become a primary gateway to accessing phones," says Micheal O'Connor, an Alameda County assistant district attorney in Oakland, Calif.

If a person has enabled Apple's Touch ID, her fingerprint will unlock the phone for 48 hours after locking before the device requires a PIN. Systems on newish Samsung and LG phones work similarly. Los Angeles and Oakland are among the cities that have already granted or received warrants for the use of a finger to unlock a phone. The next step may be a lawsuit that determines whether a fingerprint is off-limits.

Federal Judge SLAMS D.C. For Its Attack On 2nd Amendment – Makes THIS Ruling…

Posted: 20 May 2016 01:00 PM PDT

It would appear that federal judges are turning on Obama in the waning days of his Presidency.

Washington D.C. lawmakers tried to pull an "England" and force their citizens to prove that they have a valid reason for concealed carrying a firearm, but a federal judge wasn't having any of it.

From Young Conservatives:

Washington D.C. is a dumpster fire in a multitude of ways.

Democrats in the city have been trying to enact several different gun laws that will do absolutely nothing to prevent crime but will instead make it impossible for law abiding citizens to protect themselves.

Recently, they enacted a law that required citizens to prove they had "good reason" to attain a concealed carry permit.

Today, a federal judge has halted the enforcement of that law.

HILLARY CLINTON SAYS HER HUSBAND WILL FIX THE ECONOMY

Bill Clinton planted the seeds of economic destruction

On Sunday, Hillary Clinton told a crowd of supporters in Kentucky she will put her husband in charge of the economy.

"My husband, who I'm going to put in charge of revitalizing the economy, cause you know he knows how to do it," Clinton said.

According to the establishment and its pundits, the presidency of Bill Clinton was good for the economy. His tax cuts and budget restraint, it is said, were responsible for the booming economy of the 1990s.

In fact, the budget surplus at the time was the result of a stock bubble inflated by the Alan Greenspan and the Federal Reserve.

Ocean City Police Continue to Investigate Fatal Collision

Posted: 20 May 2016 11:15 AM PDT

Ocean City, Maryland – (May 20, 2016): Ocean City police officers are continuing to investigate a fatal crash involving a motorcycle that occurred yesterday, May 19, 2016. The motorcycle driver, Eric Del Marr, 24, of Germantown, MD, was traveling at a high rate of speed in the area of 28th Street and Philadelphia Avenue when he collided with a pickup truck driven by a 19-year-old male of North Beach, MD.

The preliminary investigation revealed that a Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) officer attempted to stop the motorcycle after witnessing Del Marr conduct a "wheelie" at a high rate of speed. The MDTA officer witnessed the traffic violation minutes before the collision while traveling northbound in the approximate area of 45th Street and Coastal Highway. Del Marr then made a U-turn on Coastal Highway at 56th Street, travelling southbound. The motorcycle fled from the officer, at which time the officer did not pursue the vehicle and lost sight of the driver.

Other police units observed Del Marr as he travelled southbound and reported his location via police radio. It was later determined that from 56th Street, Del Marr travelled southbound on Coastal Highway until 33rd Street where he turned west then eventually reentered southbound Coastal Highway at 32nd Street. Del Marr then made a U-turn at 23rd Street and travelled northbound at a high rate of speed.

At approximately 12:08 p.m., Del Marr collided with a Ford F-350 pickup truck that was attempting to turn east onto 28th Street. Del Marr was deceased upon arrival of first responders. The driver of the pickup truck was not injured.

Ocean City's Traffic Safety Unit, Patrol Division and Criminal Investigation Division are continuing to investigate the collision, which will likely take weeks to complete. Further updates will be provided pending completion of the investigation.

Ocean City police are asking anyone with information about this incident to contact Pfc. Ryan Flanagan at rflanagan@oceancitymd.gov or 410-520-5340.

Governor Hogan signs Nontidal Wetlands Mitigation 
Banking bill into law

A measure to improve Maryland's wetlands conservation and restoration strategies was signed into law today.

Governor Larry Hogan signed the Nontidal Wetlands Mitigation Banking bill (House Bill 797) at a ceremony in Annapolis. The new law removes obstacles and clarifies policies to spur more public-private partnerships and wetlands protection projects. These projects play a critical role in sustaining the Chesapeake Bay and local waterways.

"This bill is living proof our state is open for business and committed to the environment," said Governor Hogan. "When environmentalists, developers and engineers work together, we can improve our wetlands while simultaneously doing something very positive for the economy. This is good news for our state, the Chesapeake Bay and the local watersheds throughout Maryland."

"The Maryland Department of the Environment thanks Governor Hogan and the General Assembly for this important environmental initiative," said Maryland Secretary of the Environment Ben Grumbles. "Wetland conservation banks are a great way to help restore and protect our state's natural heritage. We all win with public-private partnerships that improve environmental results."

A mitigation bank is a wetlands restoration, enhancement or conservation area professionally managed and monitored to help the State meet its "no net loss" of wetlands goal. Unavoidable impacts to wetlands must be "mitigated" through projects that build new wetlands or restore degraded wetlands. Permit holders can meet this requirement by doing their own smaller projects, by buying credits for larger projects done by an approved mitigation bank or by paying a fee that is deposited in a compensation fund and then used to implement projects.

In 1993, the Nontidal Wetlands Protection Act was amended to encourage the development of a wetlands mitigation banking industry in Maryland. More than 20 years later, only seven mitigation banks have been approved and built in Maryland. The new law is designed to remove disincentives to the proper use of mitigation banks. A National Academy of Sciences study showed that mitigation done by permit holders could lead to a patchwork of small, ecologically isolated projects that are often less successful than larger, smarter efforts professionally managed as conservation and restoration areas.

Mitigation banks:
  • Use planning and scientific expertise to improve site selection, design, construction and monitoring of a mitigation project, providing a greater likelihood of ecological success over other mitigation options
  • Ensure larger, potentially more ecologically valuable sites that encourage greater diversity of habitat and wetland functions, including carbon sequestration for greenhouse gas reductions
  • Provide long-term stewardship of the mitigation site
  • Accept liability for ensuring success of the mitigation project, reducing the uncertainty over whether the mitigation will successfully offset the impacts authorized by the permit
  • Streamline the application process and reduce processing times by providing cost-effective mitigation opportunities.

The new law is consistent with federal environmental rules that place mitigation banking as the first preference for mitigation. It eliminates an outdated compensation ratio required for using mitigation bank credits and also defines the area in which a mitigation bank can be used with important safeguards to ensure fair and effective results.

The new law takes effect July 1. The Maryland Department of the Environment will also be taking additional steps, over the summer with stakeholders, to consider improvements to existing regulations and procedures on mitigation banks and in lieu fees.

We tried out Meal Time Box, the newest meal-subscription service on the market — and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of its food

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:45 AM PDT

Anyone who works long hours knows the importance of eating well and how difficult it can be to find the time to prepare a decent meal. Arriving home exhausted, it's much easier to order in a pizza or snag some Thai takeout than it is to throw together some steak and vegetables, or whatever other dream meal you'd make, if only you had the spare hours.

Meal Time Box is a company attempting to tackle this issue, making it easier for people to get some comfort food in their stomachs. Founder and CEO Justin Hwa told us that he created the company in order to address a problem that he saw growing in American culture. "I believe we, as a nation, have gone very off course in terms of what we're supposed to eat. Time, the amount of work, and money are factors, but there are cost-effective, easy solutions already out there."

Hwa's easy and cost-effective to this problem was creating Meal Time Box, a meal-subscription service that makes homestyle meals ranging from Baked Penne to Meatloaf to Jambalaya, freezes them in vacuum-sealed bags, and delivers them straight to the door of customers looking to enjoy a hot meal made from real ingredients. Customers place their orders online, select whichever meals they'd like to try, and have them delivered in an insulated box to ensure freshness. After about four minutes in the microwave, each meal is ready to eat.

Poll: 9 In 10 Native Americans Not Offended By Redskins Name

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:37 AM PDT

NEW YORK (AP) — A recent national poll found that nine of 10 Native Americans aren't offended by the Washington Redskins name.

The poll conducted by the Washington Post indicated more than eight in 10 said they wouldn't be offended if someone who was not a Native American called them that name.

A federal judge ordered the cancellation of the Washington Redskins' trademark registration in July, ruling that their name may be disparaging to Native Americans. The club is appealing.

Ninety percent of the random national sample of 504 Native Americans said the name doesn't bother them; 9 percent said it was offensive. Native Americans make up about 2 percent of the U.S. population.

Interviews were conducted from December through April on landline and cellphones, with a margin of error of plus or minus 5.5 percentage points.

What would happen if the moon suddenly blew up

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:30 AM PDT

It's no spoiler to say that in Neal Stephenson's 2015 novel "Seveneves," the moon is destroyed.

That's because the opening line reads: "The moon blew up with no warning and with no apparent reason."

We don't how the moon would suddenly explode in the real world — it's unlikely. But the way Stephenson describes the events that would happen next carries a surprising amount of truth.

Tech Insider spoke to several physicists who have considered this nightmare scenario. What they had to say did not bring us comfort.

Warning: Mild spoilers follow that for the situation that sets up Stephenson's science fiction novel "Seveneves."
What if the moon blew up?

"Seveneves" falls into what's sometimes known as the "hard sci-fi" category. The classification can be broadly interpreted, but it tends to include stories that strive to keep things within the realm of scientific plausibility.

That plausibility gives authors a lot to work with: In our world we can already rewrite the genetic code for life, are planning missions to land on Mars, and even working on sending fleets of tiny spacecraft to investigate star systems that are light-years away.

So what would happen if the moon were to be mysteriously blown up — perhaps the hardest thing to explain in the book?

In short, a fiery rain of moon debris that could last for thousands of years, wiping out almost all life on the surface of Earth.

But here's how physicists say that could play out.

Chaffetz: MSPB reinstated EPA employee with child porn on government computer

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:23 AM PDT

The Environmental Protection Agency says it's gotten tough on employee misconduct and administrative leave abuse, but the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee says the agency still doesn't do enough to fire its worst offenders.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), chairman of the committee, told acting EPA Deputy Administrator Stanley Meiburg that the agency has one of the worst records in government when it comes to dealing with employees convicted of serious crimes.

"The EPA is one of the most toxic places in the federal government to work, and if you don't get rid of the toxicity of the employees there at the EPA, we're doing a great disservice to this country," Chaffetz said Wednesday. "Most of them are good, hard-working, patriotic people. They care, they work hard, but you have some bad apples at the EPA, and they're not being dealt with."

In his testimony, Patrick Sullivan, the assistant IG for investigations at EPA, said his biweekly summits with Meiburg on employee misconduct cases, put into effect this February, should be held up as a best practice in government.

Committee members, however, said the EPA's prior track record with handling employee misconduct did not give them confidence that the agency could fire offending workers in the future.

Chaffetz, for example, blasted the Merit Systems Protection Board for overturning the termination of a field office employee who kept child pornography on his agency computer. Sullivan told the committee that the employee was a registered sex offender.

OC Council Defends Police After Harsh Comments

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:07 AM PDT

The Ocean City Police Department (OCPD) came under fire somewhat this week for alleged misinformation about a pair of accidents this month including a fatal pedestrian collision, but resort officials sternly rejected the notion and fiercely defended the department.

Shortly after 1 a.m. on May 3, a 67-year-old Pennsylvania man was struck and killed by an Ocean City Police Chevy Tahoe patrol vehicle driven by an on-duty five-year veteran on Coastal Highway at 94th Street. The pedestrian was crossing Coastal Highway from east to west in the north crosswalk against the pedestrian signal when he was struck by the police vehicle in drizzly, foggy conditions.

The officer was traveling southbound on Coastal Highway on routine patrol at the time of the incident. The victim was transported by Ocean City EMS to Atlantic General Hospital where he was pronounced deceased. In a second incident, an OCPD vehicle collided with the rear of a municipal bus. During the public comment period of Monday's Mayor and Council meeting, a pair of local residents called into question the OCPD's handling of the incidents and law enforcement in general.

Gary Sinise’s Lt. Dan Band hits GI Film Fest, Memorial Day events

Posted: 20 May 2016 09:00 AM PDT

WASHINGTON — He's found purpose turning "magic legs" into veteran hope.

Gary Sinise not only earned an Academy Award nomination as Lt. Dan Taylor in "Forrest Gump" (1994), it provided the namesake for his music group, the Lt. Dan Band, a favorite at USO events.

Now, over the next couple weeks, Sinise brings his band to a series of patriotic events across the D.C. area in what has become an annual salute to our nation's troops in the run-up to Memorial Day.

"We wanted to create something where we could go into the hospitals where people can be going through rehabilitation for several years, and their family members are there and the staff members are dealing with one wounded service member after another. It can be kind of a long haul," Sinise told WTOP. "So somebody like me coming in with a band … it might help them through the daily grind."

College boots ex-Delta Force hero after complaint from LGBT activists

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:45 AM PDT

Jerry Boykin is the kind of man you'd want teaching your sons – a good and decent man, an honorable man – a Christian man.

For the past nine years the retired lieutenant general has taught leadership and ethics at Hampden-Sydney College, a highly regarded, all-male school based in Virginia. By many accounts – he is beloved and deeply respected by students.

But Gen. Boykin will not be returning to the classroom this fall. That's because he tells me he's been fired.

The man who was one of the original members of Delta Force and once commanded all of the U.S. Army's Green Berets – the man who served his nation with honor and distinction for more than 36 years – was ousted because of political correctness.

Canada is trying to implement new transgender rights as quickly as possible

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:30 AM PDT

Flanked by members of the transgender community, Canada's justice minister vowed that she would put new human rights protections for trans and gender-fluid Canadians into law "as quickly as possible."

The announcement, made on the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia, was the culmination of more than a decade of political battles.

"I'm pretty sure this is the first time the trans rights flag has been displayed in this foyer," Justice Minister Jody Wilson-Raybould told reporters in front of the doors to the House of Commons.

The new legislation, entitled bill C-16, will add gender identity and gender expression as a protected class in the Human Rights Act and the Criminal Code, as was first reported by VICE News last week.

While reporters asked the justice minister whether the announcement was more symbolic than substantial, the practical effects of the legislative change could be significant.

The changes to Canadian law will mean that gender identity and gender expression will be added to the already-lengthy list of protected classes — which includes "color, race, religion, national or ethnic origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, or mental or physical disability."

Federal Judge Upholds Virginia Voter Photo ID Law

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:15 AM PDT

A federal judge on Thursday upheld Virginia's 2013 law requiring voters to show a valid photo ID at the polls.

The Virginia Democratic Party sued state elections officials, saying the photo ID requirement unconstitutionally suppresses voting by blacks, Latinos and young people.

U.S. District Judge Henry Hudson wrote that the Democratic Party did not prove that the law violates the Voting Rights Act or several constitutional amendments, The Richmond Times Dispatch reports.

While agreeing that the merits of the voter ID law can be debated, Hudson wrote, "it remains true that Virginia has created a scheme of laws to accommodate all people in their right to vote..."

Donald Trump just vaulted past Hillary Clinton in a major national poll for the first time

Posted: 20 May 2016 08:00 AM PDT

Donald Trump overtook Hillary Clinton in a Fox News pollreleased on Wednesday evening.

The Manhattan billionaire held a 45% to 42% edge over the former secretary of state in the new survey measuring their expected general-election matchup.

The result represented a sharp shift from April, when Trump trailed Clinton by seven points. In March, he trailed by 11.

Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, held a large 55% to 31% lead over Clinton, the Democratic frontrunner, among white voters.

That margin outpaces the final split from the 2012 race that pitted President Barack Obama against Republican Mitt Romney.

White women in the survey favored Trump by 47% to 38%. But Clinton held a lead among all women, by a 50% to 36% difference. She also maintained massive advantages among African-American and Hispanic voters.

Saudis Hold $117 Billion of US Debt as Senate Passes Terror Legislation

Posted: 20 May 2016 07:30 AM PDT

Saudi Arabia's holdings of U.S. taxpayer debt have finally been revealed after four decades of secrecy.

The U.S. Treasury disclosed that the Middle Eastern country has $116.8 billion in treasury bonds, making it the 13th biggest foreign owner of federal debt, according to a report in USA Today.

"Saudi Arabia's holdings fall well behind giants like China and Japan with holdings valued at $1.2 trillion and $1.1 trillion respectively," the newspaper reports.

The disclosure comes at a time when relations between the U.S. and the oil-rich nation are showing signs of strain. The U.S. Senate on Tuesday unanimously passed controversial legislation that would allow the families of 9/11 victims to sue foreign nations if they are found to be responsible for terror attacks on U.S. soil.

EPA Wants Higher Ethanol Mandate

Posted: 20 May 2016 07:00 AM PDT

EPA DROPS NEW RENEWABLE FUEL STANDARD: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Wednesday rolled out its proposed blending mandates for ethanol and other biofuels, and both sides in the debate are displeased.

Under the Wednesday plan, 18.8 billion gallons of biofuels would have to be blended into the nation's gasoline and diesel, and 14.8 billion gallons could be ethanol.

And while the total volume is 700 million gallons above this year and the ethanol volume is up 300 million gallons, the totals aren't what Congress wrote into the law in 2007.

Instead, the EPA is proposing to use a waiver authority written into the law, citing factors like a lower than expected demand for gasoline and diesel.

"This administration is committed to keeping the [renewable fuels standard] program on track, spurring continued growth in biofuel production and use, and achieving the climate and energy independence benefits that Congress envisioned from this program," Janet McCabe, head of the EPA's air pollution office, said in a statement.

The ethanol industry said it's completely unacceptable that the EPA still isn't setting the levels in the statute, and its use of the waiver is improper.

Q&A With Worcester State’s Attorney Beau Oglesby

Posted: 20 May 2016 06:53 AM PDT

SNOW HILL — It's Worcester County State's Attorney Beau Oglesby's job to put bad guys in jail. He's good at it, and he has built a reputation in his six years in the position as a proactive and effective professional.

Yet the one issue that keeps Oglesby up at night, both as a professional and as a father, is the heroin epidemic that is growing in the region and across the nation.

Heroin is now claiming the lives of almost 30,000 Americans per year, and while law enforcement officials and public health treatment centers are simultaneously ramping up their respective efforts to combat this epidemic, Oglesby has spent enough time on the front lines of this issue to know that there is no easy fix when it comes to heroin.

TACOMA, Wash. – Monique Tillman says she was 15-years-old when she encountered an off-duty Tacoma police officer in the parking lot of the Tacoma Mall.

The off-duty officer was in uniform and working mall security on May 24, 2014. Monique and her brother, Eric Branch, were riding their bikes through parking lot as they headed home.

"The whole time, there's no crime. We are not doing anything. We are just riding our bikes," said Branch.

"Basically, the security guard just starts harassing us," said Tillman.

According to a complaint filed by Tillman's attorney, security said the teens were stopped because they were causing a disturbance. But Tillman maintained that they did nothing wrong.

DO YOU REMEMBER 1987?

Posted: 20 May 2016 06:00 AM PDT

Do you remember 1987 when the Senators were giving Ollie North such a bad time? This brings it all into perspective, thought you might be interested in this forgotten bit of information.

It was 1987! At alecture the other day they were playing an old news video of Lt. Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra
hearings during the Reagan Administration.


There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the third degree, but what he said was stunning!

He was being drilled by a senator, "did you not recently spend
close to $60,000 for a home security system?"

Ollie replied, "yes Sir, I did".

The senator continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience,
"Isn't that just a little excessive?"

"No sir" continued Ollie.

"No, and why not?" the senator asked.

"Because the lives of my family and I werethreatened sir".

"Threatened? By whom?" the senator questioned.

"By a Muslim terrorist sir". Ollieanswer.

"Terrorist? What terrorist could possibly scare you that much?"

"His name is Osama bin Laden, sir", Ollie replied.

At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't. A couple of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. "Why are you so afraid of this man?", the senator asked.

"Because sir, he is the most evil person alive that I know of", Ollie answered, "And the Muslims are trying to take over America and destroy it from the inside out and putting their people into our political offices.

"And what do you recommend we do about him?", asked the senator.

"Well, sir, if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth."

The senator disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip. By the way, that senator was Al Gore! Also: Terrorist pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel in 1986.The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the Oslo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993,Israel had to agree to release so-called, "political prisoners". However,the Israelis would not release any with blood on their hands.

The American President at the time, Bill Clinton, and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, insisted that all prisoners bereleased. Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked us by flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade Center .

I Have To Say, I Am In Awe Over Today's Daily Times Editorial

Posted: 20 May 2016 05:51 AM PDT

A Viewer said, Against overwhelming odds, the DT may have penned the most pitiful piece of PC journalism to date. It's hard for me to imagine one person baking this illogical pretzel in his/her mind. To think of 2 or more sane adults reviewing it and not seeing the gaping holes in that pretzel before posting it is stunning.I assure you a financial adviser was not even discussed.

If any CPA tells you to move to a county/state with higher local taxes because it's the charitable thing to do and it offsets your federal liability - run!

A portion of the editorial said: 

"When it's your spouse who is laid off from a state job, your property that was damaged by a storm after disaster relief funding was cut, your niece (or the girl next door) who was raped and is contemplating suicide, your loved one addicted to painkillers, where will you turn"?

Good Lord, how far will the Liberal Media go any more. The Editorial attacks Governor Hogan for reducing taxes in Maryland and implies the reductions are just too good to be true.

This coming from a Newspaper who continues to increase their price, yet is so thin and provides a good 70% less news then it had delivered years ago for twenty five cents. 

This attack piece is just the beginning of their campaign to go after Hogan in the hope of convincing local voters to elect another Democrat Governor who will raise taxes and destroy the state, just like O'Malley did. 

Perhaps the Daily Times should look at Hogan's popularity rating and they'd come to realize just why so many people are dropping their subscription to that paper. Why they lost their building in Downtown Salisbury, had to sell their Press and outsource daily printing to Wilmington, DE. and if that's not enough, their massive drop in employees should speak volumes as well. Then, out of nowhere, the skeleton crew they managed to keep as employees were then forced to reapply for their jobs at a massive reduction in pay. Yet they support a $15.00 minimum wage, rain taxes and have been the recipient of a massive local tax reduction and stood in line every year with their hands out at City Council Meetings.

So please, do tell me how and why ANYONE would purchase that newspaper any more and actually believe ANYTHING they say when it comes to finances? I'm just in awe.

Shelter animals to be euthanized if not adopted

Posted: 20 May 2016 05:30 AM PDT

 
WANTED: Someone to adopt dozens of dogs and cats at the privately-run animal shelter called "A Buddy For Life" in Cecil County... or else.

"We put it out there, because it is the reality," said Tina Bright, a shelter worker. "If we're stuck with dogs and we have absolutely no place to put them, we're going to have to put them down and it really stinks."

The group has lost its contract with Cecil County, which will begin running its own in-house shelter in Chesapeake City in July.

But any animals who can't find new owners by the end of June will be euthanized.

Edie Hardy adopted a full blue nose pit bull named "Kallie" from the nonprofit a few years ago. She claims the company has recently turned away rescue groups who have offered to save some of the dogs.
