Why I'm Grateful This Thanksgiving
The very first thing I am grateful for is my Wife and Family. Without their support I could not continue to do what I do 365 days a year.I'm grateful for those men and women serving in our armed forces who protect the freedom we so enjoy.
I'm grateful for those who participate with Salisbury News and believe so strongly in what we provide each and every day. Their dedication is just unbelievable, yet many remain unnamed with no interest in recognition.
I'm grateful to ALL of the people who send us information on a daily basis, providing us information and photos. Without their help I'd be lost.
I'm grateful for the audience that has now exceeded more than 21,000,000 strong.
I'm so very grateful to our advertisers who support what we do every single day. Their participation allows us the opportunity to give back to this community like no other Blog ever has.
I'm grateful for ALL of the people who have volunteered with the Salvation Army over all these years. Without their help there is absolutely no way they could have raised the kind of funds and record years, (year after year) since Salisbury News got involved.
I'm so grateful to ALL of those people who have taken in lost animals throughout the years and reunited them with their owners.
Finally, I'm so grateful for ALL of the people I have met over the past 7 years since I started Salisbury News. I have created more friendships, many I'm confident will live on for the rest of my life. Sure, we've created some enemies but this is America and I can only hope that one day they will respect the fact that we enjoy our freedom of speech. So we differ in ideas and beliefs, so what. My hope is that they realize there's plenty of room for ALL of us. There's no reason to bring spouses and children into our disagreements and differences.
Anyhow, today I will kick back with Family and Friends and enjoy a peaceful day of fellowship. From the Albero Family and all of us here at Salisbury News, Thank You and Happy Thanksgiving to ALL of you.
UPDATE: I've turned off comments because of the nasty comments coming in from Jonathan Taylor & company. My message is all that matters anyway. To Mr. Taylor, you will never change and that's unfortunate.
A Daily Times Paper Will Cost You $1.50 Today And Few Are Buying It
As you can see from the stacks of newspaper piled up in one local WaWa, the Daily Times tried to take advantage of their customers and today they're NOT buying it.
The above image was taken after noon today and the complaints I received this morning was that the paper has very little news, (less than usual) and it was loaded with Black Friday Ads.
Look, the Daily Times is in business to make money. Clearly they were forced to raise their price from .25 cents per day to $1.00 per day and $1.50 on Sundays because they had lost so many customers. You don't raise your prices 300% because you're the only game in town.
Many viewers have expressed their displeasure in what they're getting from the Daily Times and quite frankly they simply aren't listening. Those ads, for Black Friday should be the day that they give back to their readers and advertisers. They should charge the normal rate and within the paper offer their thanks for supporting them. Kinda like we do for lost animals. There's no charge. One would think this would encourage people to stick with the Daily Times. Instead, the Daily Times is grabbing whatever they can before they go six feet under.
Pictures do NOT lie Folks. Today's paper is a joke. People don't have the money to go shopping like they used to, or doesn't the Daily Times read those copy and paste AP articles they provide in their own paper. The end is unfortunately very near for the Daily Times, it's that simple.
Someone commented earlier that there's been less than a hand full of comments since they changed to Facebook comments on their on line edition. If it wasn't for the Gannett financial backing, this paper would have been toast a long time ago.

Off-Duty Officers And Firearms
People generally recognize law enforcement officers by their marked cruisers and uniforms, which include the display of symbols of authority—a badge and a gun. The public expects officers to be comfortable carrying a sidearm and to exercise precision and sound judgment when using it. officers are responsible for ensuring the safety and protection of citizens and, thus, expected to provide a calming presence. This is true when they are on duty, but does this extend to off-duty hours when there are no outward signs of authority?
The U.S. Congress has determined that in a post-9/11 world, the public is better served when off-duty officers are in a position to effectively respond in the face of a threat. To this end, the Law Enforcement officers Safety Act of 2004 (LEOSA) allows officers to carry concealed weapons not only in their jurisdictions but in all 50 states, and the territories of the United States, provided certain conditions are met. This article will explore LEOSA, address federal statutory limitations regarding firearms possession, and summarize a short legal history of the Second Amendment concerning the right to bear arms

Washington Gridlock Could Push Fed To Act On Economy With QE3
Gridlock in Washington is convincing more economists that the Federal Reserve may have to ride to the economy’s rescue once again, perhaps with a new trillion-dollar-plus stimulus effort.
The failure of the Congressional deficit “super committee” this week, the prospect of continued tax, budget and policy standoffs in Washington through the 2012 election, and the pending expiration of several legislated stimulus provisions have increased the likelihood the Fed could soon launch another round so-called “quantitative easing,” to try to push down longer-term interest rates to stimulate economic growth, the economists said.
The Fed executes “QE” with big purchases of government bonds and other securities; it has launched two previous QE rounds totaling about $2 trillion. The Fed has said more QE remains a policy option for stimulating the economy and stronger job creation. The program likely would be designed to push down mortgage rates in particular, to try to jumpstart the struggling housing market.

China Plans Retaliation Against US Over US Solar Panel Manufacturers Complaint To Impose Unfair Trade Tariffs
China is poised to retaliate against a group of US solar manufactures led by SolarWorld that claim China has been dumping product in the US in order to undermine the US solar industry. In the wake of recent US solar industry bankruptcies and closures including Solyndra, Evergreen, Solen, BP among others - China has filed retaliatory action against the US claiming that US companies have flooded China with polysilicon - a primary ingredient for solar panel production.Domestic Chinese manufacturers - (CPIA) - is finalizing a complaint alleging that U.S. manufacturers are selling their products at prices below cost in China
This raises an interesting observation as to whether the Obama administration seeks to divert attention away from its US loan of more than a 500 million of now defunct Solyndra and thus blaming the Chinese for the attributing to the bankruptcy incident. On the other hand - the Chinese are alleging that the Obama Administration is trying to restrain the Chinese and actually costing Americans by artifically inflating solar panel prices through manipulation by US solar firms.

How the Pilgrims Got their Name
It wasn't until 1840 that the term "Pilgrim" came to refer to the early Mayflower settlers.
The Pilgrims (though they weren't called that at the time) originated with the members of a Separatist congregation from Scrooby, Nottinghamshire, England, whose pastors were Richard Clifton and John Robinson.1 This congregation suffered difficult persecution in England because they dissented from the state Church of England. William Bradford, one of the original Mayflower emigrants, wrote that
"[The church members] were hunted and persecuted on every side, so as their former afflictions were as flea-bitings in comparison of these which now came upon them. For some were taken and clapt up in prison, others had their houses besett and watcht night and day, and hardly escaped their hands; and the most were faine to flie and leave their howses and habitations, and the means of their livelihood... Yet, seeing themselves thus molested, and that there was no hope of their continuance there, but a joynt consent, they resolved to goe into the Low Countries, where they heard was freedom of religion for all men...."2

No Rejoicing
This year on our Thanksgiving Day
My mother she had lots to say.
“We won’t have Turkey, that’s a fact,
the turkey is innocent so let’s not act,
In a manner harsh or insincere
Instead let compassion guide our year".
But Uncle Joe was not amused,
In fact he was downright confused.
"A turkeyless Thanksgiving Day?"
Is all Uncle Joe could really say
"If this is the case I have no choice.
But this Thanksgiving I won’t rejoice".

Maryland - Hostile Business Environment - You Make The Call
Maryland is often referred to by many businesses as being HOSTILE. It wasn't enough for BP to decide to leave Frederick, MD. It had long been considered to be a 'cornerstone' for Maryland's future.

Rep. King: Gingrich Immigration Plan Is 'Amnesty'
Influential congressman Steve King (R-Iowa) said Wednesday that presidential candidate Newt Gingrich's immigration plan was a "form of amnesty" and that he disagreed with it, adding to the chorus of critics from the right.
In Tuesday's GOP foreign policy debate, Gingrich said he would support an immigration policy that would allow illegal immigrants who had lived in the United States for a long time, obeyed the law, and paid their taxes to become permanent residents.
“I do not believe that the people of the United States are going to take people who’ve been here for a quarter of a century … [and] separate them from their families and expel them,” Gingrich said. “I do believe we should control the border. I do believe we should have very severe penalties.”
He went on to say that he believed his policy to be the "humane" one.

Post-supercommittee, Senate Dems Ready To Spend
After failing to reach a deal to reduce the deficit, the Senate will move next month to take up legislation that could add more than $400 billion to the deficit.
All of the proposals, such as the extension of the payroll tax cut and unemployment insurance, are popular but come with no agreement on how to pay for them.
Senate Democrats will go on offense next week by forcing Republicans to vote on extending and expanding the payroll tax cut, which accounts for $240 billion of the tab, according to Democratic and Republican aides. Lawmakers will take up the legislation after completing work on the Defense authorization bill.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has yet to announce an offset for the measure, but he has discussed matching it with a tax increase for millionaires. Such a vote would be intended to hammer home the message that Republicans are out to protect the rich, though it leaves Democrats vulnerable to arguments about class warfare.
It is the opening maneuver in what will be a busy month that will likely keep lawmakers in Washington up until Christmas.
Democrats are contemplating a separate vote on extending unemployment benefits, which they do not plan to offset. This would put Republicans in the tough position of blocking popular benefits at a time when the unemployment rate is 9 percent.

Obama's Secret 'Green' Bank Exposed
The Secret Government Bank That's Financing More Solyndras ... Sitting at the center of the Solyndra scandal is an off-balance-sheet bank at the Treasury Department that dates back to 1973. This little-known government bank, the Federal Financing Bank [FFB], had a zero balance in 2008 for green energy projects, but now, with little Congressional oversight, it is giving out billions of dollars in loans to White House pet projects often at dirt-cheap interest rates below 1%. – Fox

The Truth About Thanksgiving
Julie Borowski explains that the generally told story about Thanksgiving leaves out many important facts, and that there was no huge feast, i.e. Thanksgiving, until the Pilgrims dumped their commie ways for a private property society. In other words, though few realize it, Thanksgiving is a celebration of the plenty delivered because the Pilgrims began to respect individual freedom and private property.
