If You Think Chief Webster Is Incompetent Now.......
Today a friend of mine reminded me of a Post we put up years ago that showed just how out of control things were back then.
He asked, do you think things are any better today. Well, the fact that there were criminals spray painting entire buildings for weeks on end with Graffiti and NO ONE was ever caught should tell you a lot about Chief Webster's leadership.
At the time, Mayor Tilghman and Chief Webster were telling the public there were NO GANGS in Salisbury, remember that Folks.
The Daily Times absolutely REFUSED to put ANY pictures in their Newspaper because the former Mayor probably had too much control over what they could and couldn't do/produce, so they provided nothing.
This Post, (one of many) clearly shows just how desperately Salisbury needed Salisbury News. Everything was being covered up and the Daily Times played the biggest role in doing so.
Take one quick look at just one of the Posts we put up and you tell me why the Daily Times would refuse to expose such criminal activity. I can recall their putting up one small photo, one in by one inch in size.
Come to think of it, I'll bet most of you never even saw these Posts, since we've grown so much since them. Go take a look. Another Webster COLD CASE/CASES.

Bernard Madoff Gets 150 Years!
NEW YORK (AP)- Historic swindler Bernard Madoff was sentenced to 150 years in prison Monday for a fraud so extensive that the judge said he needed to send a symbolic message to potential imitators and to victims who demanded harsh punishment.
Scattered applause and whoops broke out in the crowded Manhattan courtroom after U.S. District Judge Denny Chin issued the maximum sentence to the 71-year-old defendant, who said he lives "in a tormented state now, knowing all the pain and suffering I've created."

Delaware State Police Announce 37th Annual Camp Barnes Benefit Stock Car Race
Delmar- The 37th Annual Camp Barnes Benefit Stock Car Race will be held at the Delaware International Speedway on Tuesday, July 7, 2009. Gates to the speedway will open at 5:00 p.m. and racing action begins at 7:00 p.m. The rain date is scheduled for Wednesday, July 8, 2009. The Delaware International Speedway is located on (Sussex Highway) US 13 north of the Delaware – Maryland line. Tickets to the event are available at the speedway’s ticket booth the night of the event. Spectator tickets are $15.00 and pit tickets are $25.00. Children ten years of age and under accompanied by a parent or guardian are admitted free to spectator seating.
This year’s event will again feature competitors from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia and Delaware. Drivers will compete for over $35,000 in prize money. Modified, Late Models, Street Modified, Modified Lites, TSS AC Delco Modified and Little Lincoln Vintage Cars will compete in over 100 laps of feature racing in their respective classes.
Also, back by popular demand is the 12th Annual Camp Barnes Shoot-Out featuring the top five finishers from the Modified feature and the top five finishers from the Late Model Feature. A $2,000 cash purse is at stake when they go head-to-head in a twelve-lap dash.
Camp Barnes originally opened in 1948 to combat juvenile delinquency. The camp was named in recognition of Colonel Herbert A. Barnes. Colonel Barnes was the Superintendent of the State Police at the time of the camp’s establishment, and he was instrumental in raising the necessary funds and volunteer help to make Camp Barnes a reality. The camp is located next to the Assawoman Wildlife Area on Miller Creek, 6.7 miles southeast of Bethany Beach. During an eight-week span in the summer, sixty children, ages ten to thirteen attend Camp Barnes each week with no financial burden on their parents or guardians. The camp operates on an annual budget of approximately $223,000 a year not including major repairs, which the camp greatly needs. Camp Barnes gives approximately eight hundred underprivileged children a 2 to 5 night camp experience they would never have. The camp is used by Delaware State Police Underprivileged Camp Week, Special Olympics, City of Wilmington, 4-H Club, and Stockley Home for the Handicapped.
This is the time of year for our fund raising, starting with the Camp Barnes and Delaware State Police 2009 Stock Car Race at Delaware International Speed Way. If you can not make the race we would hope that you will consider sending a donation to help with the cost of carrying on this camping experience for the children of Delaware. The tax ID number is El#51-0062049. Your donation should be made out to Camp Barnes Inc. and sent to: Delaware State Police, P.O. Box 430, Dover, Delaware 19903. Thank you for your consideration.
For additional information, please contact Detective Preston (Pep) Lewis at (302) 856-5850 Ext. 301.
Is Chief Webster The Source For A Certain Blogger?
Someone is running vehicle tag numbers and furnishing the information to one of the most vile bloggers in the area. How else would he have gotten the information to post on his blog? Staking out the plaza to see who enters or leaves the building located at 300 W. Main Street is stalking, plain and simple. Running the plates on vehicles parked across the street from the building because they believe this person to be a friend or visitor of Joe Alberos' is stalking. Releasing the personal identification of someone because you believe them to be a friend or visitor of Joe Alberos' is STALKING.
Is Chief Webster now the flunkie of this vile blogger? Would Chief Webster abuse the power of his office? It has been said on that same blog, the vile blogger has sources in SPD. So, did someone in SPD run these tags and provide the information to the vile blogger? This is not information you can gain by a simple google search or an MVA search. This information had to be obtained by a police agency.
Does the person, named by the vile blogger, as being owner of the vehicle, parked in front of Parker Place, have grounds for a lawsuit? I would think so but, I'm not a lawyer, I don't even have a certificate on the wall.
It is highly doubtful, anyone at WCSO or MSP would jeopardize their position, to aid the vile blogger in his vendetta against Joe. It is highly doubtful, any of the line officers at SPD would jeopardize their position either. Especially after Chief Webster fired Dan Dougherty's step son from his dispatcher job after the photo of the murdered prostitute was released. Everyone over at SPD and every other police agency knows Webster is gunning for Albero and will stop at nothing to set him up.
So, the question of the day is WHO BREACHED NCIC PROTOCOL AND PROCEDURE?
Will this be investigated? Will someone lose their job? If I were investigating, I'd start at the top and work my way down.
If the Chief of Police weren't so busy trying to bust Albero maybe he could solve some of these crimes that have been let go cold.
FIGHT CRIME, NOT OPINIONS!
Rite Aid Closing 114 Stores

The Walls Come Tumbling Down

Barrie Tilghman, Mike Dunn, Lynn Cathcart, John Jacobs, Jim Rapp, Carrie Samis, these were the names I vowed to remove from their positions four years ago, but I'm missing one, Webster.It was two years ago at this time when Jim Rapp allegedly turned in his resignation to move on to greener pastures, (cough, year right) while some say the Mayor told him it was time to move on.
Nevertheless, these are the people who have done just about anything they could do to shut me down, have me arrested, you name it, they tried it. However, today Salisbury News has grown larger than the Daily Times and we continue to grow each and every day.
I share this photo for those who wondered if Rapp would ever leave and relieve the animals of such horrible deaths in volumes so unbelievable, even to this day I still can't believe it myself. That's OK though, they're in good hands now and many of the people involved in covering up the horror of that Zoo are now history and the animals can take a deep breath and sigh in relief.
Salisbury News spoke up for the animals and won, that's all that counts. Salisbury News stood up for the Citizens and won and again, that's all that matters. We'll just have to see what the new leadership brings us over time but one thing is for sure, it can't be worse than what we had!

Two Charged in Credit Card Theft
Location of Incident:
Prices Corner Bowling Alley, 3215 Kirkwood Highway, Wilmington, Delaware, New Castle County
Wal-Mart, 1251 Centerville Road, Wilmington, Delaware, New Castle County
Date and Time of Occurrence: Saturday, June 27th, 2009 at 3:15 p.m. and 3:56 p.m., respectively
Suspect(s):
Timothy Randall, 20, of Highland Avenue in Wilmington, Delaware
Jessica Paoli, 18, of Southway Drive in Newark, Delaware
On Saturday the 27th, Troopers were called to the Prices Corner Bowling Lanes for a reported theft of a purse. In this case, the 62-year-old female victim was bowling when a male subject, later identified as Timothy Randall, ran up and grabbed her purse. Randall, and his accomplice Jessica Paoli, took off on foot. The victim’s husband gave chase; however, he was unable to catch the bandits.
About 30 minutes after the theft, the suspects responded to the nearby Wal-Mart location on Centerville Road. Here, they attempted to use the victim’s stolen credit card to purchase several gift cards. This purchase was suspicious to the clerk at Wal-Mart who, with security, questioned Randall and Paoli. They asked for I.D., and when none could be produced, the two bandits again fled on foot. This time, Randall wasn’t so lucky in his escape.
Wal-Mart security officers latched onto Randall; however, Paoli got away. Randall was turned over to responding Troopers who charged him with the following offenses: Identity Theft (felony), Theft (felony), Unlawful Use of a Credit Card (felony) and two counts of Conspiracy 2nd (felony). He was committed to the Howard Young Correctional Institute in lieu of $5,000.00 secured bail.
Warrants were also completed for Jessica Paoli. On Sunday the 28th, Troopers responded to Paoli’s home. Inside, they found Paoli hiding underneath a baby crib. She was Charged with the same aforementioned offenses and committed to the Baylor Woman’s Correctional Institute in lieu of $7,000.00 secured bond.
Are There Only 27 Days In June??????
According to the Salisbury Police Department there is. While today is the 29th and there are in fact 30 days in this month, we'll never know what happened on the 28th, 29th & 30th. That is, unless someone gets on line and corrects it.
UPDATE: Someone at the SPD reads Salisbury News because they have already fixed the calendar!
Standing With Freedom
by Bruce S. Thornton
FrontPage Magazine
Remember when the liberal punditariat sneered at George Bush for putting Iran in the “axis of evil” in his 2002 State of the Union address? Whole legions of sophisticated, nuanced thinkers rushed to explain the crudity of Bush’s thinking, not to mention his indulgence of dangerous religious ideas like “good” and “evil.” Iran is not a Hitlerian totalitarian state, they sniffed, and elections are held there, offering some level of democracy.
Typical of such thinking is a column not long ago by the New York Times’ Roger Cohen, in which this nuanced thinker wrote:
Totalitarian regimes require the complete subservience of the individual to the state and tolerate only one party to which all institutions are subordinated. Iran is an un-free society with a keen, intermittently brutal apparatus of repression, but it's far from meeting these criteria. Significant margins of liberty, even democracy, exist. Anything but mad, the mullahs have proved malleable. Most of Iran's population is under 30; it's an Internet-connected generation. Access to satellite television is widespread. The BBC's new Farsi service is all the rage. . . . The June presidential election pitting the incumbent, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, against Mohammad Khatami (a former president who once spoke in a synagogue) will be a genuine contest as compared to the charades that pass for elections in many Arab states. No fire has burned down the Majlis, or parliament.
I wonder what the people in the streets of Tehran would think about this “genuine contest,” or whether they appreciate Cohen’s sophistries like “un-free” and “intermittently brutal” and “margins of liberty” and “complete subservience to the state.” What percentage of a citizen’s freedom has to be eliminated before a regime will meet Cohen’s criteria for “complete subservience”? Let’s see, all candidates for office have to be approved in advance by the mullahs, and even then the election is blatantly stolen, after which protesters are killed and beaten, opposition leaders and their families arrested, the media silenced and internet interdicted, the “Supreme Leader” (sic!) Ayatollah Khamenei publicly threatens violence against his own citizens, gangs of paramilitary thugs rampage through Tehran like storm troopers — looks pretty totalitarian to me, though time will tell whether it ultimately lasts or not.

Court Rules For White Firefighters Over Promotions
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled Monday that white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., were unfairly denied promotions because of their race, reversing a decision that high court nominee Sonia Sotomayor endorsed as an appeals court judge.
New Haven was wrong to scrap a promotion exam because no African-Americans and only two Hispanic firefighters were likely to be made lieutenants or captains based on the results, the court said Monday in a 5-4 decision. The city said that it had acted to avoid a lawsuit from minorities.
The ruling could alter employment practices nationwide and make it harder to prove discrimination when there is no evidence it was intentional.
"Fear of litigation alone cannot justify an employer's reliance on race to the detriment of individuals who passed the examinations and qualified for promotions," Justice Anthony Kennedy said in his opinion for the court. He was joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.

Rules Are Rules
The Good news: It was a normal day in Sharon Springs, KS when a
Union Pacific crew boarded a loaded coal train for the long trek to Salina.
The Bad news: Just a few miles into the trip a wheel bearing became
overheated and melted, letting a metal support drop down and grind on the rail,
creating white hot molten metal droppings spewing down to the rail.
The Good news: A very alert crew noticed smoke about halfway back in the train
and immediately stopped the train in compliance with the rules.
The Bad news: The train stopped with the hot wheel over a wooden bridge with
creosote ties and trusses. (In defense of the crew, according to Sixgun Jr., the crew tried to 'splain to higher-ups, but were instructed not to move the damn train!)
RULES IS RULES! (But, don't let common sense get in the way of a good disaster!)

Tree Hugger
A woman from Los Angeles , who was a tree hugger and an anti-hunter, purchased a piece of timberland, near Grants Pass , OR ..
There was a large tree on one of the highest points in the tract. She wanted a good view of the natural splendor of her land so she started to climb the big tree. As she neared the top she encountered a spotted owl that attacked her.
In her haste to escape, the woman slid down the tree to the ground and got many splinters in her crotch. In considerable pain, she hurried to the nearest doctor. She told him she was an environmentalist and an anti-hunter and how she came to get all the splinters. The doctor listened to her story with great patience and then told her to go into the examining room and he would see if he could help her. She sat and waited three hours before the doctor reappeared. The angry woman demanded, 'What took you so long?' He smiled and then told her, 'Well, I had to get permits from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Forest Service, and the Bureau of Land Management before I could remove old-growth timber from a recreational area. I'm sorry, but they turned me down.'

Wyatt Davis BMN, 19, of Daniels Court in Bear, Delaware
Resume: On Sunday the 28th, a robbery occurred at the Little Caesars Pizza involving the two suspects listed above. In this case, the suspects, who concealed their faces, entered the store.

Wrecking the Economy, Down ... Socialized Medicine to Go
For those of us who live in Maryland's First Congressional District, we should give a big thanks to "Blue Dog Frank" Kratovil for voting to grind our economy to a halt. What's next on the Obama - Pelosi - Kratovil agenda? Socialized medicine.
Think about it; it's a great combo. Rather than sitting at home freezing because you can't afford to pay for your heating bill, you can get in line at the doctor's office to wait six months for anything but the most mundane care.

DIAL *57!!!!!!
All too often these days people are getting bogus telephone calls that turn into scam calls. One thing they want is your Social Security Number. They'll tell you a Family Member has been injured in an accident and in order to release the information, they need your Social Security Number.
When you ask who they are and any other detailed information they tell you they cannot give out that information until you have given up your Social Security Number.
Once you realize this is a scam, many choose to try to hit *69 to see who was calling but these people are too smart for that, they have their number blocked. So here's what you do.
When you get a bogus call, hang up the phone and IMMEDIATELY dial *57. Remember that Folks, *57! This will lock in that number no matter what they do and as soon as you contact the Police and tell them you've locked in the number by dialing *57, they can and will immediately know who was placing the illegal call.
Start getting used to *57 just like we did *69. *57 will stop these criminals and we can finally fight back. *57 and then call your local Police, it's that simple. Any time you're being scammed and they refuse to give up their information, hang up and dial *57.

A Letter To The Editor
I was thinking about this. Social Security is a fund that is paid into by people who should be referred to as investors. Right? Our hard earned money goes into this fund and we get it back when we reach "retirement age" - which is determined by the govt. In order for this to work properly, more people have to contribute to this fund every year or it will go broke. In order for Social Security to continue more investors must contribute more money every year. Sound familiar? It should! Charles Ponzi pulled this type of scheme off after coming here from Italy in 1903. That's right. Social Security is nothing more than a Ponzi scheme perpetrated by our own government and we're the victims. Think about it.
A Friend Writes In Amd Says Although Wikipedia is not the most accurate source of info, I find no harm in using it to define a Ponzi Scheme since it's not subject to opinion. Wiki says; "A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation that pays returns to investors from their own money or money paid by subsequent investors rather than from any actual profit earned. The perpetuation of the returns that a Ponzi scheme advertises and pays requires an ever-increasing flow of money from investors in order to keep the scheme going."
Just like Bermie Madoff's Ponzi scheme, Social Security will collapse. One big difference is that we can't get out of it. We're being forced by our government to contribute to a Ponzi Scheme almost exacly like the one the Madoff was just convicted of perpetrating.

A Cowboy From Texas
A cowboy, who moved to Wyoming from Texas , walks into a bar and orders three mugs of Bud. He sits in the back of the room, drinking a sip out of ea ch one in turn. When he finishes them, he comes back to the bar and orders three more.
The bartender approaches and tells the cowboy, 'You know, a mug goes flat after I draw it. It would taste better if you bought one at a time.'
The cowboy replies, 'Well, you see, I have two brothers. One is in Arizona , the other is in Colorado . When we all left our home in Texas , we promised that we'd drink this way to remember the days when we drank together. So I'm drinking one beer for each of my brothers and one for myself...'
The bartender admits that this is a nice custom, and leaves it there.
The cowboy becomes a regular in the bar, and always drinks the same way. He orders three mugs and drinks them in turn.
One day, he comes in and only orders two mugs. All the regulars take notice and fall silent. When he comes back to the bar for the second round, the bartender says, 'I don't want to intrude on your grief, but I wanted to offer my condolences on your loss.'
The cowboy looks quite puzzled for a moment, then a light dawns in his eyes and he laughs.
'Oh, no, everybody's just fine, ' he explains, 'It's just that my wife and I joined the Baptist Church and I had to quit drinking.'
'Hasn't affected my brothers though.

What Are You Doing For The 4th Of July?
Are you one of the many people that stop in parking lots and purchase Fireworks for the 4th of July? I see quite a bit of Fireworks in Sam's Club too.
Nevertheless, with the Shorebirds not shooting off Fireworks this year, what will you do. Last week we posted information about places to go. Will you get together with your neighbors and shoot off your own Fireworks? Or will you simply head out to one of the many locations offering a Show?
I have not seen any Press Releases about what the law states in Maryland/Delaware and or any information from our local Fire Departments referencing what we can or can't do from home. Perhaps someone can chime in on what we can and can't do on our own.
YOU Make The Call
While Chief Webster has been away for the past couple of weeks for a Honeymoon and Vacation, one would tend to think he was gone for the past two weeks, right? WRONG! It turns out it has been reported that Chief Webster has been back from his Honeymoon for about a week now, yet he has not come into work to help with the investigation of the recent murder at the Shell Gas Station on Rt. 13 in Salisbury.
I'll simply put it to you this way Folks. IF the same situation had happened in the County, (I know Salisbury is in the County, you know what I mean) and Sheriff Lewis had been back home for a week, what do YOU think would happen.
Chief Webster has simply become far too comfortable living in Somerset County and ignoring OUR lifestyle and safe keeping. Help Is On The Way, NOT!

Fundraiser For Keith Brooks At Chef Fred's
H.O.P.E. (Helping Others Produce Events pulled off another successful fundraiser, this time for Keith Brooks. The event was held at Chef Fred's with multiple Bands, free food and discounted drink prices on Sunday.
There was a silent auction as well as a live auction to help raise money for Keith. We stated at the beginning of the year that this year was going to be about giving back and wouldn't you know it, people supporting numerous causes have been giving from their hearts in order to help those less fortunate and we're pleased to bring such events to your attention.
Eric Morris, (founder of H.O.P.E.) couldn't be there yesterday because he got into an argument with a skateboard and lost, BIG! The poor guy broke his ankle and while he said it was OK for me to show a picture of it, I'll save you the horror of what it looked like immediately after he broke it.
So to Keith and Eric, get well my friends and let's have a VICTORY Party after all this is said and done with. Thanks for coming everyone and thanks for your support. H.O.P.E. is doing some wonderful things for some wonderful people.
Oh, I can't forget to thank our friend Fred! He opened his doors on a Sunday and opened his entire facility for this event from 2:00 PM till...... You're a good man Fred and I'll not forget this and hopefully no one else will wither. By the way Folks, for the absolute BEST All-You-Can-Eat Lunch, Chef Fred's is second to NONE!
To ALL of the Bands, thank you!
It's Amazing How Things Work
I put up a couple of articles showing dead animals at the Salisbury Zoo and wouldn't you know it, the Daily Times follows up with an article typical of their political agenda, allow me to explain how and why.
In today's article, the Daily Times brings up certain words that clearly spell out the Zoo is a special gem to our community. The word is, accreditation.
They go on and on about how the Salisbury Zoo is one of 12 Zoo's in the United States that's still free. Well guess what, I've been hearing that number for all too many years and now I want to know which ones are the 12 Zoo's. I'll call Joel today and ask him for the names of these 12 Zoo's and then I want to know how many of these 12 Zoo's are in fact accredited.
Being accredited by the AZA is a cost to the City each and every year. While the title of the article discusses Zoo's across America rising in attendance by some 200,000 people from 2007 to 2008, he goes on to say, "It doesn't correlate directly to the number of people we have visiting the zoo," Hamilton said. "But regardless, the number is still going up."
Well, I guess if we had a FREE Movie Theater, attendance would be up there too. It's Monday, things are desperately slow at the Daily Times and they'll print just about anything to make it look like you're getting something for your money.
The Salisbury Zoo is a cool place but it needs to start charging at least $1.00 at the door to get in. FREE to anyone with a City of Salisbury Driver's License but $1.00 to anyone else. What's your thoughts on that Folks.
Sunday At The Court Plaza
The finished product. Nice work John. 
I received numerous calls on Sunday from concerned people at the Court Plaza referencing work being done on a Sunday claiming John Robinson may have been working without a permit to replace signs and allegedly changing the colors on the signs in Court Plaza. The County is pretty strict on these kind of things and we'll be checking in with the County to see if permits were in fact issued for them to replace the signs. I spoke with a representative from the Light House Restaurant who informed me that many of the tenants were complaining about kids skateboarding around the parking lot and almost getting hit by cars pulling out of their spaces and or being hit by skateboarders riding on the sidewalks as they left the hair salon and other places of business there.
While it was a good thing for Robinson to do what he can to help children have a place to go, the Court Plaza, (IMHO) was about the dumbest place anyone could ever think of to do something like this. The Landlord has to be sweating bullets in fear of lawsuits from parents should their child get hurt in her parking lot.
We'll let you know on the permit issues with Wicomico County some time later today. It is pretty strange they chose to go into work and create the signs today and install them on a Sunday but you do have to consider who they're working with in the first place.
