Posted: 28 Aug 2016 04:00 PM PDT Tropical Depression #8 has just formed about 310 miles west of Bermuda. Maximum winds are around 30 mph. The system is expected to possibly strengthen to a minimal tropical storm as it moves toward the west-northwest. The system is then expected to curve out to sea before reaching land. With this forecast track, any impacts to SE VA, NE NC and the eastern shore will be minimal, although high swell and a moderate to high risk of rip currents are possible through the week. | ||
Posted: 28 Aug 2016 07:22 AM PDT An interesting video find on YouTube has come to my attention that I wanted to share with the Salisbury News readers. This is an amazing explanation about our Economic System in America. A must-watch for those who are perplexed by our system of governance in regards to finances including taxation and whether or not its even legal for the government to be taxing citizens. Also addressed is major corporations being involved in this plot to make digitized slaves of us more than you already are today. Perhaps this will explain to many why Donald Trump is such a threat to the establishment within the Beltway. He threatens a lot of people and why the MSM is so desperate for him to not be victorious in November. After watching this, you'll realize it's no wonder everyone seems to be against the only person who knows how this system works and how to destroy it. From YouTube Description: Is there a law which requires you to pay the Federal Income Tax? Is the Federal Reserve a part of the United States Government, or is it a private bank owned and operated by multinational corporate interests? Do they have our nation's best interests at heart? Unless something changes, what does the future of the United States look like? The answer to all these questions and more in this incredible documentary by legendary filmmaker Aaron Russo (February 14, 1943 – August 24, 2007). Informed voters vote responsibly and with purpose.

Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT It is easy to see bias in the local news media when you read the August 18th issue of the SALISBURY INDEPENDENT. First of all, we need to remember that WICOMICO COUNTY is spending some pretty big bucks with the INDEPENDENT and ROBERT CULVER hired the editors ex wife for a cushy made up job. Therefore, you can expect to read very little in the way of objective reporting from the INDEPENDENT. It seems when the COUNTY COUNCIL approved the WOR WIC TUITION FUND there wasn't enough information available, so the money was moved into the contingency account. This would give the Council enough time to sort out all the details of this left wing liberal program and make any needed changes. The trouble is, Culver and two of the Council members, Matt Holloway and John Cannon attended a check presentation long before the monies had been moved or even approved thus violating the WICOMICO COUNTY CHARTER. To be noted, a real check was given to the COMMUNITY FOUNDATION FOR $265.000.00 If you go to the WICOMICO COUNTY website and look up the Charter, it is very, very clear that no monies are to be transferred from the contingency fund without a vote from the County Council. So, what's a bunch of liberals to do when they break the rules? They "CODIFY" it! JOHN CANNON'S statement in the INDEPENDENT to "CODIFY" interestingly means to organize procedures or rules into a system. Does this mean that this is going to be the normal mode of operation from now on? If so, what will happen to our democratic form of government that has been in place in WICOMICO COUNTY for over 100 years? A Charter violation should be considered a serious matter. However, when it is done for a program as liberal as the WOR WIC TUITION it seems easy that the members who voted for this program are willing to let the matter slide, basically to cover their own asses. What really is bewildering is that the lawyer that the Council hired also said that the Charter has been violated yet four Council Members (JOHN CANNON, MATT HOLLOWAY, JOHN HALL & ERNEST DAVIS) chose not to pursue any further action. Questions need to be asked as to why this deviation in procedure has taken place, been excused and swept under the rug. | ||
Marijuana bust: Crucial mission or waste of time? Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT Officers from 10 law enforcement groups confiscated 107 marijuana plants worth an estimated $214,000. MILTON POLICE DEPARTMENT A police operation that uncovered marijuana plants in Sussex County has been hit with a backlash of criticism on social media. Numerous commenters wrote that the 2-month investigation involving 10 law enforcement groups was a waste of time and money, and many called for police to focus instead on the heroin epidemic and child molesters. "Pot??? Come on, let's do something about the heroin issue. Waste of resources," wrote one of 115 commentors, all but a handful opposed to the counterdrug effort dubbed Operation Summer Harvest. Milton Police Chief Robert J. Longo headed the operation that included officers from Ocean View, Dagsboro, Georgetown, Selbyville, Delmar, the Delaware National Guard, Delaware State Police and the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control.

Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT If you are anywhere near my age or older you'll recall the images we saw in school of our ancestors coming to the Unites States for a better life, the "American Dream". The people coming here wanted everything to do with our values. However, people weren't coming in by the hundreds of thousands or even millions at a clip. Many of the people Obama and Hillary want here are people who want to change every aspect of our way of life. The Liberal agenda seems to be more about overloading America with people who wouldn't mind capitalism. Heck, it's a lot better then where they came from. The next thing we knew, laws are changing. Statues are being torn down. God is being taken away as if God is an insult. When we grew up we stood proud to recite the pledge of allegiance. We learned the Constitution, Bill of Rights and so on. You are welcome to add your thoughts here in comments as to the massive changes you have seen. This article will seem long enough as it is but I think you're getting my drift. Donald Trump comes along and the absolute FEAR he has placed on this Liberal Agenda is scaring the crap out of them. We have shown the farce time and time again how Hillary isn't truly drawing in large crowds to her rallies, yet Trump is filling football stadiums. The Liberal Media seems to be scrounging for their last breath because the major majority of Americans no longer believe what they're feeding us. The Blogs are getting threatened towards silence. Many of our Amendments are also being threatened. This is NOT the America we were raised in. Mass shootings start coming out of nowhere and now they want to take away guns. There are military drills happening all across America, even in Mardela. Our law enforcement agencies are being handed military equipment. Am I crazy, am I missing something, is this normal? Billions of dollars are disappearing that can't be accounted for, REALLY? Could it be that the upcoming presidential election is going to be rigged and they're afraid Americans might revolt? If you think for one second our government doesn't plan 10 years in advance for things, well, you are nuts. The writing is on the wall for some massive changes. In the past we have seen massive genocide around the World and we weren't running to those countries and bringing those people to the United States to offer them a better life. Instead, we're bringing people here, (again) who do not believe in our values and laws. These people are demanding we change our laws to suit their wants and needs. To me it seems obvious, our government is forcing change down our throats right before our very eyes and the media is praising and supporting these changes as if what we have enjoyed in the past isn't/wasn't good enough. If I was a man in my 20's I'd be looking for another country to live in. A place where life is much simpler. It kills me inside to watch what is happening while great Americans sit back and take it. If there's ever been a time to get out and vote, this is it. Donald Trump tells it like it is. To watch the media go after his every word and act as if he is insulting everyone is just nuts. He is simply saying the things most of us feel, very similar to this Blog and its comments. To think today that the millions of people getting off the boat are thinking, is this cool, or what. Affordable housing, welfare, food stamps, free health care, free college, what a life! When our ancestors came here they came because there were JOBS as well as a better way of life. Go back into your own history/family, NONE of it was easy. They worked very hard to deliver us roads, transportation, bridges, tunnels, buildings/skyscrapers, you name it. Today it's all about ENTITLEMENTS at taxpayers expense. THINK, how much longer can we afford it before everyone goes broke? I for one am sick and tired of watching hard working Americans go bankrupt. It's time we all start remembering where we came from. It's time to show RESPECT to our ancestors who helped build this incredible country for the RIGHT REASONS. A vote for Donald Trump is a vote to "Make America Great Again" because from what I'm seeing, it won't be more then a decade before America is completely destroyed by the Liberal Party. | ||
I Forgot To Mention In My Earlier Article (Part 2) Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT In a conversation I had with my Father last night I asked him what he thought was the most up and coming item that each Family would need two or three of. He asked, like what. I replied, well, for example, back in the day cassette tapes were the big thing over the 8 track. Then came CD's. Black and white TV's and eventually Color TV's. Wall mounted phones to cordless phones and then cell phones. We had beta and then VCR's, then video disks. Then came computers. Once he understood where I was going with my question he just sat there and said, I don't know. I replied, well Pop, here's what I see. Let's see now, there's the new copper frying pan. Then there's the protective covers for your dining room table, just like Grandma used to have. Let's not forget the multiple plug in outlets. ISN'T AMERICA GREAT PEOPLE? While we used to MANUFACTURE so many of the above creations, we just don't do so any more. Instead we import products because we sent everything overseas where it could be manufactured for peanuts and AMERICA could no longer compete. The Liberals then created the phrase, "we're a throw away society". No, Idiots, we're FOOLS! We've elected and allowed Idiots who know NOTHING about business encourage FREE TRADE. We drove our country completely out of competition and rather then being PROUD, while we dream up new ideas, what we get in the end are copper frying pans, table covers and multiple plug adapters. It's time we rid ourselves of these IDIOT politicians who have NO CLUE about running a business. It's time we scream at them when they run for office and claim their main platform is JOBS! The next time you hear some Idiot claim they want to bring in jobs, demand they tell you HOW because they're ALL full of crap. When you have a County Executive giving away Impact Fees, stop being so stupid and realize, SOMEONE has to pay for that water and sewer hookup, repave the roads, pay for the traffic lights and pay the salaries of the county employees approving such developments. That's right, YOU the taxpayer will now foot the bill for that shiny new home being built. Commercial developers are laughing all the way to the Bank. Politicians know NOTHING about economic development. DONALD TRUMP DOES! | ||
TRIPLE Hurricane Threat for U.S. East Coast - 10 days Posted: 28 Aug 2016 09:11 AM PDT The National Hurricane Center is presently tracking one confirmed Tropical Storm, "Fiona" in the Atlantic, and two more "Tropical Waves" off western Africa; which could turn into THREE east coast Hurricanes during the week!

An Interesting Comment Worthy Of A Post Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT Anonymous said... When you work in the bubble that is the Executive's office, you think you are wildly popular and invincible apparently. They are all in for a rude awakening. Whenever I'm involved in a conversation and county government comes up, people are invariably negative and think Culver and his staff are out of touch with the majority of the people. He is certainly not living up to his campaign promises. You can tell the difference of someone who is working for the good of the people and one who is working to try and keep his job. You better hope the Democrats will vote for you Culver, because you are losing lots of Republican votes. | ||

IOC reviews Old Bay as potential enhancement Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT MONTGOMERY COUNTY- MARYLAND: Concerns are growing that Old Bay Seafood Seasoning a Maryland staple, will be named a banned substance in future Olympic Games. Old Bay an immensely popular seasoning regularly found sitting on kitchen and restaurant tables in the Chesapeake Bay region. And fears are that it could determined to be a "performance enhancement" that allowed the Free State to stand out in representing the United States of America. What else could explain the phenomenal results delivered by eleven world class athletes? The U.S. finished with 121 overall medals (46 gold, 37 silver and 38 bronze) and of the total Maryland brought home 14 gold medals, three silver and one bronze. Eight of the individual 14 medals came home to Montgomery County alone. This incredible showing has only five countries winning more medals than Maryland itself.. An awesome accomplishment for all the athletes and in particular the American participants. USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! Source | ||
Mom Sees SICK Thing Teacher Gave Her Child, Sends “Special” Message Back Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT A mom in California discovered unsettling news of what her son has been taught in his seventh grade class. She's upset, and she has every reason to be. When Tara Cali went to open up her son's history textbook to help with his homework, she noticed the lesson was all about Islam. For the actual homework assignment, students were asked to write down the "Pillars of Islam" and "Islamic Beliefs and Rituals." That's not all though. There was even a code students could scan with their smart phone to hear a Muslim prayer in action. Cali wrote an epic message back to the teacher on the actual worksheet. She was tremendously upset, and rightly so. Her son is being indoctrinated with Islam. Learning about other cultures is fine, but when a homework assignment is dedicated to learning Muslim prayers, something is wrong. More | ||

U.S. Navy calls high-speed approach by Iranian ships dangerous harassment Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT Four Iranian ships made reckless maneuvers close to a U.S. warship this week, the Pentagon said Thursday, in an incident that officials said could have led to dangerous escalation. William Urban, a spokesman for the U.S. Navy's 5th Fleet, said the four vessels from Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps conducted a "high-speed intercept" and passed close to the USS Nitze, an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer, in international waters around the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday. The Iranian ships ignored repeated radio, whistle and flare warnings from the Nitze and slowed their approach only when they were within 300 yards of the U.S. ship, Urban said. He described the Iranian actions as "unsafe and unprofessional." More/video | ||
Question: Should middle-schoolers be forced to walk up to 1.5 miles to school? Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT SILVER SPRING, Md. (ABC7) — A group of passionate parents is attempting to poke holes in a Montgomery County Public Schools policy, which denies bus service to certain students. The policy states that elementary students living less than one mile from school grounds will not get bussed to-or-from class. The distance threshold is set at one-and-a-half miles for middle schoolers, and two miles for high schoolers. Madiaw Diop and his wife have three children in the MCPS system. They live in a basic apartment complex along Glenville Road, approximately one mile from Eastern Middle School in Silver Spring. The walk to EMS, which includes crossing busy University Boulevard East, takes roughly 20 minutes door-to-door. In addition to time, Diop says frigid temperatures, oppressive heat, rain and unshoveled sidewalks make the daily trek dangerous. More | ||
Mylan Execs Gave Themselves Raises As They Hiked EpiPen Prices Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT EpiPen prices aren't the only thing to jump at Mylan. Executive salaries have also seen a stratospheric uptick. Proxy filings show that from 2007 to 2015, Mylan CEO Heather Bresch's total compensation went from $2,453,456 to $18,931,068, a 671 percent increase. During the same period, the company raised EpiPen prices, with the average wholesale price going from $56.64 to $317.82, a 461 percent increase, according to data provided by Connecture. In 2007 the company bought the rights to EpiPen, a device used to provide emergency epinephrine to stop a potentially fatal allergic reaction and began raising its price. In 2008 and 2009, Mylan raised the price by 5 percent. At the end of 2009 it tried out a 19 percent hike. The years 2010-2013 saw a succession of 10 percent price hikes. More | ||

Questions About First-Place Billfish Lead To White Marlin Open’s Top Prize Of $2.8M Being Withheld Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT OCEAN CITY — Exactly two weeks to the day since the one and only qualifying white marlin caught during the 43rd Annual White Marlin Open was hauled up the scale and ultimately awarded $2.8 million, shattering the tournament payout record and potentially setting a world record payout, tournament officials late Tuesday announced there was a potential violation of tournament rules with the big winner and the prize money was being held pending a determination of the proper recipient. On Tuesday, Aug. 9, angler Phil Heaseley and the crew on the "Kallianassa" out of Naples, Fla. pulled into host Harbour Island with a white marlin to weigh shortly after the scale opened for business at 4 p.m. The big white was hauled up the scale and topped out at 76.5 pounds, and Heaseley and the "Kallianassa" cozied into the top spot on the leaderboard with the one and only qualifier up to that point early in the tournament. However, it was only Tuesday and Heaseley and the "Kallianassa" had to sweat out three more days with white marlin practically jumping in the tournament boats during the 2016 WMO during which release records were shattered.

Legislative Black Caucus: Hogan should intervene in medical cannabis licenses Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT The head of the Legislative Black Caucus of Maryland is asking the governor to intervene in the awarding of medical cannabis licenses because the selected companies lack diversity, denying minorities the opportunity to get in on the ground floor of an emerging industry. "I am completely disappointed with the medical marijuana commission and the decision that they have made in terms of awarding licenses," said Del. Cheryl D. Glenn, chairwoman of the black caucus. "Clearly, there was no effort at all to factor in minority participation and make sure that it's inclusive of everybody in the state of Maryland." Members of the black caucus and others have raised concerns that the 15 preliminary licenses for growing medical cannabis and the 15 licenses for processing the drug, which were awarded this month, mostly went to companies led by white men. Lawmakers and some losing applicants are mulling legal action. More | ||
White Lives Matter Protest At NAACP Building Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT Just outside the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People's office in Houston, about 20 people staged a protest Sunday, holding up a "White Lives Matter" banner. The protesters also waved confederate flags, and some carried rifles, while one of them shouted through a bullhorn. "We came here because the NAACP headquarters is here and that's one of the most racist groups in America," Scott Lacy, a spokesman with the group, stated. Ken Reed, another member, said Black Lives Matter and other organizations have resulted in the "attack and killing of police officers, the burning down of cities and things of that nature. If they're going to be a civil rights organization and defend their people," he said, "they also need to hold their people accountable." More/Video | ||
USA TODAY Sports investigation raises questions about Rio cops, Lochte incident Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT RIO DE JANEIRO – Seven days after an incident that will in part define the Rio Olympics, details are becoming clearer about what happened during a gas station encounter between four U.S. swimmers and security guards, and not everyone has concluded Ryan Lochte and his teammates are entirely in the wrong or that the account offered by Rio authorities is entirely accurate. Lochte has admitted he exaggerated his initial description of how the four men were stopped in their taxi and robbed by men who flashed badges, as well as his sensational allegation of a gun being held to his forehead. But a narrative of the night's events – constructed by USA TODAY Sports from witness statements, official investigations, surveillance videos and media reports – supports Lochte's later account in which he said he thought the swimmers were being robbed when they were approached at a gas station by armed men who flashed badges, pointed guns at them and demanded money. A Brazilian judge says police might have been hasty in determining the security guards, by how they dealt with the swimmers, did not commit a robbery. A lawyer who has practiced in Brazil for 25 years says she does not think the actions of Lochte and teammate Jimmy Feigen constitute the filing of a false police report as defined under Brazilian law More | ||
Donald Trump Appeals to Black Voters: 'What Do You Have to Lose by Trying Something New?' Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT "If African-American voters give Donald Trump a chance by giving me their vote, the result for them will be amazing" Donald Trump made his second appeal this week to African-Americans to vote for him in November's general election. "If African-American voters give Donald Trump a chance by giving me their vote, the result for them will be amazing," the Republican presidential nominee said during a rally at the Charlotte Convention Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. "What do you have to lose by trying something new? I will fix it," said Trump, who's been struggling to attract black voters. "This means so much to me, and I will work as hard as I can to bring new opportunity to places in our country which have not known opportunity in a very long time." More | ||
Muslim Refugees REFUSING To Work, Saying “Guests Shouldn’t Have To” Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT
An initiative was started to help provide jobs to a large majority of the immigrants and refugees around the globe. The initiative revolves around the idea that we could lower the "refugee burden" by having them work for the food, shelter, stipends, and other benefits they are receiving. These Muslim refugees are being allowed into the United States as well as Europe. Yet, they won't even consider helping out. Instead they want to be treated as "guests." They are taking entitlement to a whole new level. More | ||
Posted: 28 Aug 2016 03:00 AM PDT By Thornton Crowe Over the last week, Donald Trump expanded his upper campaign management while sadly, taking the resignation of his trusted advisor, Paul Manafort. This happening on the day when Trump decided to make an impromptu visit to Louisiana, an area that's been ravaged by flooding due to rain. The loss for the state is staggering with over 100,000 people displaced, 60,000 homes lost and 13 people dead while coffins from disturbed graves, float down the streets of Baton Rouge. Sounds like some post apocalyptic nightmare. Clearly, this is the biggest catastrophe for the state since Katrina in 2005. However, even with newspapers begging for him to visit and remembering his damning remarks regarding former President Bush's fly over, it seems Obama was too busy vacationing in Martha's Vineyard, hobnobbing with the rich and famous while playing golf, to be worried about doing his 'presidential duty' and Hillary Clinton took the weekend to 'rest' after her big week on the campaign trail. Friday morning, along with his VP nominee, Governor Mike Pence, Trump arrived in Louisiana with very little fanfare. In fact, many in the media as well as Clinton spewed he did it for publicity reasons, even though he didn't bring his press core with him and requested no press to be present during much of his visit. Democrat Louisiana governor, John Bel Edwards, stated there would be no photo op moments with him should Trump visit and he was demonstratively absent during the entire visit. However, in his statement, Bel Edwards's office did say he was more than happy to take Trump's money. (What else is new?) Trump and Pence didn't arrive empty-handed. What the media largely ignored is the duo came with an 18-wheeler filled with over 70,000 pounds of food, supplies and clothing for the victims in the washed out area, which they personally helped unload and pass out to flood victims - just like two ordinary guys (minus blue jeans.) THIS is the Donald Trump New Yorkers know, respect and love. The altruistic man of the people who is willing to help when and wherever he can without the media hype. After they unloaded the truck, Trump and Pence toured many homes as well as a local church and school. The damage was extensive and many lost everything. What few cameras were present were forbidden to go with him as he met privately with many families one on one. And during the tour, both were solemn as they surveyed the damage. Many people interviewed after the visit were emotionally moved by his visit. In fact, when he arrived, many shouted they were glad to see him and, for a moment, forgot their troubles as he signed autographs and shook hands. What Donald Trump did for them was more than just bringing supplies, he demonstrated to them, he's a man of his word! He follows through. He shows up and physically WORKS! Since his visit, media still chastises him for his trip, claiming he did it for publicity even there was zero photo ops and pictures of the visit are scarce. Clinton has yet to make an appearance even though we now know her rest includes attending some ritzy fundraiser tonight in Nantucket, hosted by Cher. Obama now claims he's going down to Louisiana on Tuesday (most likely because of Trump's visit making him look bad) - but for many Louisianians, they say he's too late. And if you think he'll bring anything with him or help unload trucks, you are going to be sadly disappointed. For Hillary Clinton, her actions only further alienate her from voters as many are re-thinking their vote for her. Like the reputation she's earned in instances like Haiti, it seems she's more concerned about winning an election rather than actual human suffering. As for Trump, many are saying he became the next President of the United States last Friday! I'd have to say, I completely concur! UPDATE: Just confirmed, the truckload of loot and truck were paid for by Trump personally and was in no way connected to his campaign or GOP funding. |
