Breitbart To NAACP President: 'Go To Hell'
Internet journalist Andrew Breitbart unleashed a tirade on talk radio yesterday, blasting the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People for its condemnation of tea partiers as "racist," instead charging the NAACP itself with racism and telling its president where he can "go."
"Let me say something a tad newsworthy to the president of the NAACP: You can go to hell," Breitbart said.
"I have tapes, a tape, of racism, and it's an NAACP dinner. You want to play with fire? I have evidence of racism, and it's coming from the NAACP."
Breitbart made the explosive comments on the air with Scott Hennen, who hosts a morning talk show on WZFG 1100 AM in Fargo, N.D.
His comments came in response to a resolution adopted by the 101st annual convention of the NAACP earlier this week, condemning the "racism" of the tea-party movement and claiming it could return the nation to the pre-civil-rights era.
According to a report from KMBC television in Kansas City, NAACP President Benjamin Jealous told his organization's members tea parties must "expel the bigots and racists in your ranks or take the responsibility for them and their actions."
"We will no longer allow you to hide like cowards and hide behind signs that say 'lynch our president' or anyone else," Jealous said.

8 More In Congress Sign On For Obamacare Repeal
'Pulled out by the roots' plan now has support from 133
They include U.S. Reps. Jo Ann Emerson of Missouri, Frank Wolf of Virginia, George Radanovich of California, Steve Austria of Ohio, Greg Walden of Oregon, Frank D. Lucas of Oklahoma, Adrian Smith of Nebraska and Jeff Fortenberry of Nebraska-- the latest members of Congress to sign on to a plan to repeal Obamacare.
Its goal is to "pull out by the roots" the legislation that, among other things, will require citizens to provide their "Body Mass Index" rating to the government and purchase "government-approved" health insurance whether they want it or not.
WND reported on the plan by U.S. Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, last week when his discharge petition had the support of 109 members of the House, exactly half the minimum it would need to advance.
There now are 133.
Advocates say constituents need to call their representatives to tell them to get on board right away so that the petition is positioned to move forward whether or not the GOP becomes the majority in theHouse after the 2010 fall elections.
The move by King also has prompted an online petition campaign to rally the public to the cause.

WORCESTER COUNTY BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION
Criminal Arrest
DATE/TIME: JANUARY 2010
LOCATION: 227 WEST STREET BERLIN,MD
SUSPECT: KIRT BARREN GREENBERG W/M 6-25-65
227 WEST STREET BERLIN,MD 21811
CHARGES: POSSESSION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY, DISTRIBUTION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY BY
COMPUTER.
During the month of January 2010, the Worcester County Bureau of Investigation began investigating the alleged violation of the peeping tom law.
During the investigation, it was learned that a female juvenile had been residing on a temporary basis at the suspect’s residence. From conversations that occurred
between the juvenile and the suspect (Kirt Greenberg) lead the victim to believe
that Kirt Greenberg had video taped her, without her consent, taping her with little to no clothing. From the information learned the Worcester County Bureau of Investigations executed a search and seizure warrant on the suspects’ residence in late February, recovering several computer hard drives, which have been forward to the Maryland State Police Computer Crimes Unit for analysis.
It was also learned during our investigation that in September 2009, the Federal
Bureau of Investigation began an investigation into the possible possession and
distribution of child pornography by the suspect. A Special Agent with the F.B.I. had logged onto a public website in an undercover capacity and received an invitation by the suspect to join his chat room. Once in the chat room, the Agent was able to download over 500 images of child pornography. Through their investigation, they were able to track the IP address through the internet server.

HISTORICAL COMMENTS BY GEORGE CHEVALLIER
ChildrenNot much history has been written about children because, generally, they were too young to create any history. The plight of the child is interesting, though. Throughout history, young children were not very productive and were not useful until they had attained a certain age and that age was around five years old. At some point they were used in fields, canning houses and oyster shucking houses. They would do menial work, such as snipping beans, de-heading shrimp or picking in the fields. It is hard for us to imagine now how a child of five is forced to go to work at five in the morning, but it was done. In a periodical from 1913, a federal inspector found that the children were coming in as early as three in the morning during peak canning or shucking periods. This volume of the Child Labor Bulletin from February, 1913, has many pictures of children working and their living conditions. We cannot even imagine such conditions today.
Since Salisbury was mainly an agrarian society, many hands were needed to work the large expanses of land owned by some farmers. The cheapest labor was his own children. Due to the large infant mortality rate, people on farms had many children. There was always something to do, no matter what age a child was. Taking care of the larger animals was usually taken on by the man of the farm because they were so important to the whole operation and could be dangerous for children. The children picked, fed and carried as much as their age and size would allow. There are many people around Salisbury that grew up on farms, and they can verify that there was never a dull moment. I’ll bet they never let their father hear them say, “I’m bored”, such as the children of today lament.
Education was spotty at best a hundred years ago. The number of one-room school houses that dotted the Shore covered the full extent of a child’s education. They only had one teacher, and the only qualification was that they had assisted a teacher for one year after they had finished the full nine years of formal education. Many of the students were at different stages of growth, and their “school grade” would differ greatly due to the level of knowledge attained. Many of the children had to miss a lot of time due to the planting season in the spring and the harvest season in the fall. When my grandfather decided to throw in the towel on his formal education, he was 15 in the fifth grade. Usually it was age and not graduation that determined when a child left school.
Doing genealogy on the Shore has always been difficult due to the fact that many farmers had a second wife. The first wife might have had six or seven children by the time she was worn out and died in her twenties. Since the farmer couldn’t tend his farm and the children, he would marry again. A second family might include another half-dozen children. These would include any children resulting from the second marriage and any children the second wife would bring with her.
Maryland Becomes Second State To Offer Federally Funded Abortions Under Obamacare
Maryland will join Pennsylvania as the second state to use federal tax dollars to pay for abortions under the new health care law signed by President Barack Obama in March, according to information released by Maryland’s State Health Insurance Plan.
Maryland will receive $85 million in federal funds for its federally mandated high-risk insurance pool, which will cover abortions. As CNSNews.com reported on July 14, Pennsylvania will receive $160 million in federal funds for its high-risk insurance pool, which will also cover abortions.
During the debate over the health-care bill, President Obama delivered a speech to a joint session of Congress, saying: “Under our plan, no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions.”
The day the House voted to pass that bill, President Obama also signed an executive order purporting to prevent federal funding of abortions in the programs it created.
Rep. Mike Pence (R.-Ind.), the chairman of the House Republican Conference, said Friday that the fact that Maryland will now use federal dollars to fund abortions under a program mandated by the health-care law signed by President Obama represents a “broken promise.
"This is one more example of a broken promise in ObamaCare,” said Pence. “It is morally wrong to end an unborn human life and it is reprehensible to take taxpayer dollars from millions of pro-life Americans and use them to pay for abortions.”

A War On Whose Terms?
Iran's domestic troubles and the Arab world's fear of a nuclear Iran provide Israel with an opportunity to radically shift the region's balance of power
We are entering troubling times. The conviction that war is upon [Israel] grows with each passing day. What remains to be determined is who will dictate the terms of that war — Iran or Israel.
Iran has good reason to go to war today. The regime is teetering on the brink of collapse. Last week, the bellwether of Iranian politics and the commercial center of the country — the bazaar — abandoned the regime. In 1979, it was only after the bazaar merchants abandoned the shah that the ayatollahs gained the necessary momentum to overthrow the regime.
Last Tuesday the merchants at the all-important Teheran bazaar closed their shops to protest the government's plan to raise their taxes by 70 percent. Merchants in Tabriz and Isfahan quickly joined the protest. According to the Associated Press, the regime caved in to the merchants demands and cancelled the tax hike. And yet the strike continued.
According to The Los Angeles Times, to hide the fact that the merchants remain on strike, on Sunday the regime announced that the bazaar was officially closed due to the excessive heat. The Times also reported that the head of the fabric traders union in the Teheran bazaar was arrested for organizing an anti-regime protest. The protest was joined by students. Regime goons attacked the protesters with tear gas and arrested and beat a student caught recording the event.
Crucially, the Times reported that by last Thursday the bazaar strike had in many cases become openly revolutionary. Citing an opposition activist, it claimed, "By Thursday, hundreds of students and merchants had gathered in the shoemakers' quarter of the old bazaar, chanting slogans [such] as, "Death to Ahmadinejad," "Victory is God's," "Victory is near" and "Death to this deceptive government."
The merchants' strike is just one indication of the regime's economic woes. According to AP, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is under pressure to carry out his pledge to cut government subsidies for food and fuel. Although he supports the move, he fears the mass protests that would certainly follow its implementation.
Front Page Magazine's Ryan Mauro noted earlier this week that there is growing disaffection with the regime in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps itself. A recent documentary produced by the Guardian featured four IRGC defectors speaking of the discord in the ranks. The regime is so frightened of defection among the IRGC that it has removed many older members and replaced them with poor young men from the countryside.
The regime's fear of its opposition has caused it to crack down on domestic liberties. Last week the regime issued hairstyle guidelines for men. Spiked hair and ponytails are officially banned as decadent.
On Sunday Mohammed Boniadi, the deputy head of Teheran's school system, announced that starting in the fall, a thousand clerics will descend on the schools to purge Western influence from the halls of learning. As he put it, the clerics' job will be to make students aware of "opposition plots and arrogance."

Israeli Firm Develops Nanotech Stealth Paint
Israel's Nanoflight has been developing a paint that could significantly reduce the radar signature of missiles, aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles.
The paint, which has not been named, was developed in a nanotechnology laboratory and tested in mid-July 2010.
"This is a breakthrough with the potential to change the rules of the game in the battlefield," Nanoflight executive Eli Shaldag, a former senior Air Force officer, said.
Shaldag, who worked on Israel's Arrow missile defense project, said Nanoflight has completed the main development stage and underwent several trials. He said the paint was based on nano research that led to the composition of elements that significantly reduce thermal and radar signatures.
"We conducted a number of tests and discovered that the particles in their nanotechnology composition do significantly neutralize the ability to detect objects that have been painted with the material," Shaldag said.
Executives said the special paint, which absorbs electromagnetic waves, could also protect ground platforms from radar detection. In the latest test, first reported by Israel's Ynet news agency, the paint was applied to dummy missiles, which when launched appeared to evade most radar identification.
Nanoflight has been marketing the paint as an alternative to the procurement of expensive stealth aircraft. Executives said although radar could still detect an object on the screen, identification would be extremely difficult.

Ocean City's Whale Of A Mystery
Well never know if it was the oil spill, an illness or something else that killed that humpback.
The Maryland Department of Natural Resources said it has finished examining the whale carcass that washed ashore in Ocean City last week. But because it was so badly decomposed, officials could not determine how or why the animal died. What experts DO know is that it was juvenile, female and 25-feet long. The carcass was found July 8 near Sixth Street. Folks along the boardwalk said they could smell the stench.

My Lemon Continued
I'm finally happy to say the remotes to my vehicle were delivered by the salesman.
Also, the paperwork that was "misplaced" was found and fowarded to Chase for their records. I can honestly say this has been one crazy ordeal I wish it did go more smoothly but at least it got done.
Mr Wilson Jr., the salesman Kenny Gardner are nice people to deal with I think some of the other people in finace were trying to cause trouble with me with Chase Bank that's my personal opinion based on things they said and did. I 'd like to thank sby news and Mr. Albero for getting my stories out there so they could be heard and answered. I also like to thank Mr.Wilson Jr. for taking care of the issues with this ongoing problem and Mr.Gardner for his help finally getting the issue resolved and also Mr. Wilson Jr. asst. Dianna for her help also. Yes as you know I had problems associated with the lemon I had but the people mentioned above did help in their own way to get this resolved.
If you want to buy a Ford I personally would ask for Mr. Gardner to handle the sale. I just want to finish this by saying if you ever have a problem or issues with merchadise or services with anything stand up for your rights and be heard no matter what people may say or do.
Thanks for your patience and time

Fernando Guerrero Wins Another Title Fight 19-0
This fight was an excellent match up and a hard fought fight by both men. Fernando was the clear winner and deserved to win the belt over the veteran, (Smith) of 10 years in the ring.
Congratulations Fernando Guerrero and we look forward to seeing Team Guerrero back home to tell us more about this experience.
