Folks, in case you hadn't noticed, comment moderation has been lacking as well as posts. I picked up the creepy crud, running a fever and quite frankly I'm too darned tired to stay up.
That being said, I'm calling it a night.

"During my recent interview with local newspaper, I should have been more careful with my choice of words. I apologize to those offended, and will use more restraint and a more appropriate vocabulary going forward."

'Absolutely, There Will Be More Attacks In New York'
Muslim extremist warns America: Times Square just the beginning
A Muslim extremist who earlier warned that TV's "South Park" creators should be "afraid for their lives" for insulting Islam's prophet Muhammad now says that yesterday's car bomb attempt in Times Square will be just the beginning of a new wave of terrorist attacks.
Younus Abdullah Muhammad, author of RevolutionMuslim.com, told WND senior reporter Aaron Klein on New York's WABC Radio that America should "absolutely" expect more jihadi violence in New York City.
When asked if the Times Square attack was specifically aimed at the offices of nearby Viacom, which owns the "South Park" series, Abdullah Muhammad deflected the question to condemn U.S. foreign policy instead.
"It was a retaliation for what your government is doing overseas," Abdullah Muhammad said. "If you want to continue killing civilians, then you're going to get many incidents that resemble what happened yesterday."

Economic Development For Muslims
Unemployment in America is hovering at just below 10 percent, so President Obama hosted a “Summit on Entrepreneurship” in Washington, D.C., in an effort to boost economic development … in Muslim nations.
The president thinks more U.S. investment in Muslim lands and exchange programs that will bring Muslim women to America so they can work as interns will enhance U.S. prosperity and, thus, change Muslim attitudes about the United States.
Pigs will fly first.
The U.S. has been more than generous to Arab and Muslim nations in direct foreign aid, military assistance and other ways. Egypt receives about $2 billion of American taxpayer dollars every year, yet it still votes against American interests at the U.N. 79 percent of the time. Jordan, a “moderate” Muslim nation, receives nearly $200 million annually in U.S. foreign aid, but votes against America at the U.N. 71 percent of the time. Pakistan votes 75 percent of the time against the U.S. at the U.N. while pocketing nearly $7 million annually in foreign aid (in addition to the money it gets to supposedly fight al-Qaida).
An even better example of the disconnect between American assistance and changed Muslim attitudes toward the U.S. is the Palestinian Authority. As former Israeli diplomat Yoram Ettinger writes for ynetnews.com, just since 2007, “U.S. foreign aid to the Palestinian Authority and to PA-controlled (nongovernmental organizations) reached nearly $2 billion, in addition to $3.7 billion contributed by the U.S. to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East since 1950.”
Has this aid produced jobs and, thus, a moderation in rhetoric and the objectives of the Palestinian Authority and its president, Mahmoud Abbas? Has it led to both sides in the Middle East conflict mounting a “sustained effort to respect one another and seek common ground,” as President Obama called for in his Cairo speech last year?

Who Says The Camera Never Lies?
Have you been busted by a speed camera in Maryland? Before you write a check to the state, check out Peggy Lucero’s story. It may help you get out of that ticket free of charge.
Lucero received in the mail that lovely letter, telling her she owed $40 for speeding in Gaithersburg. But the Bethesda woman was ready for a fight, according to the Washington Examiner.
She discovered that the camera that nabbed her hadn’t been tested to make sure it was working properly on the day she was ticketed. Maryland law requires police to check all cameras every day.

One Year Ago Today
It was one year ago today when they took down the old Boulevard Theater on Main Street. It was a sight to see.
Detour On The Wicomico River
Last week I posted an article asking if everyone believed Mayor Ireton had actually made any progress on cleaning the Wicomico River in Salisbury.
Since then, the Daily Times had two articles in Sunday's paper about the exact same question and patted Jimmy on the back for his enthusiasm.
Unlike the Daily Times, we at Salisbury News thought we'd provide an image from this past Saturday where a boat traveling along the river walk had to make a detour to avoid all the trash in the river and turn around and go back.
Now I know there have been budget cuts and we can't just sit around complaining to a new Mayor who inherited such problems but wouldn't it be wise to at least schedule some kind of clean up on Friday's before the Downtown area gets the most traffic.
If I were to personally rate the improvement on the Wicomico River since Ireton got into Office I'd have to say absolutely nothing has changed. Pictures just don't lie.
Handicap Ramps
With billions of taxpayers money spend on handicap ramps, why do so many choose to ride right down the center of the road instead?
Back in the 1960's there was a cry for handicap people to have access to shopping and businesses. Over the past 6 years I have taken numerous photos of people on motorized scooters riding down Rt. 50, Rt. 13 and all over Downtown Salisbury.
Some have a tall flag on their scooter allowing motorists to see them but 95% of them do not. Nevertheless, there are ramps for them to access the sidewalks and they simply do not do so.
Before someone gets seriously hurt, do you think law enforcement should do something about this or simply let it be?
Farmers Market Kicks Off With Most Vendors Selling Out Before Noon
A Market Vendor said...
Joe,
Thank you for giving the market a plug it was most helpful. The first day is usually slow because not many people realize we have opened. Your help publicizing the Farmers Market has been fruitful and appreciated by all the vendors. This year on opening day some of the vendors sold out early and left. Asparagus were gone by 9am strawberries by 11. The fresh baked breads were nearly sold out by noon. Thank you to all for supporting local farmers, bakers and water men. We hope to continue to see you throughout the year.
Solar Cell Breakthrough: 90 Percent Efficiency At A Fraction Of The Cost Of Current Panels
Scientists from the California Institute of Technology (CIT) have developed a new solar cell technology that they say absorbs up to 96 percent of "incident" light. Experimental tests revealed that the new cells operate at around a 90 percent quantum efficiency rate. Because they are made of plastic, they could significantly reduce the overall cost of photovoltaic cells as well.
Solar cells have long been a favorite of people trying to reduce or eliminate their energy bills. Many businesses have incorporated the technology as well because it is clean, renewable, and helps to reduce costs. Yet throughout its history, the relatively expensive up-front costs of obtaining photovoltaic cells has deterred many from investing in the technology. Researchers hope that their breakthrough new technology will change that.
The new cells consist of tiny silicon wires that measure a mere 1 micron in diameter. These wires are embedded into plastic plates where they convert light into electricity at an exceptional rate of efficiency. Any light that is leftover bounces around inside the wire matrix until it finds another wire that can absorb it. When all is said and done, nearly all the light is captured and converted into electricity.
The beauty of the new cell technology is that only two percent of the cell is composed of semiconductors, which are the most expensive component. The other 98 percent is made from inexpensive plastic, which translates into significantly lower prices for consumers as opposed to former solar cell technologies.

Jewelry Repair
I am searching for a good jeweler to repair a gold rope chain. I would appreciate everyone's opinion on who would do the best job for a resonable price. This chain is very important to me as it's the first gift I ever received from my wife (22 years ago).
Thanks for your input,

Tancredo: Amnesty Agenda Exposed
May Day is a traditional day of celebration for Marxists and leftists around the world. The Soviet Union used to have a big parade of military might on May Day. The American left is holding rallies across the country to denounce the racism and bigotry of an entire state, Arizona.
Arizona is again leading the way in efforts to control illegal immigration, and once again, the amnesty lobby is having a nervous breakdown.
This isn't the first time we have witnessed such obnoxious and arrogant behavior by the amnesty lobby. In 2004, Arizona passed a law by a referendum ballot to deny welfare benefits to illegal aliens. We saw the same slanders and name-calling directed against it. But the clamor slowly evaporated as the new law was upheld in state and federal courts. In that 2004 ballot election, neither the critics nor the media bothered to mention that 56 percent of Hispanic voters in Arizona supported the measure.
So, here we go again. While the protest scenario is familiar, this time the protests are even more hysterical because this time the stakes are higher. The Arizona law has been adopted at the same time the Obama administration is backpedaling on its promise of amnesty legislation in this session of Congress. The amnesty lobby sees its opportunity slipping away, and they are throwing a hissy fit.
The critics of the Arizona law have had fun misquoting me and spreading a false report that "Tom Tancredo says Arizona law goes too far." I never said anything like that and in fact have supported the Arizona law from day one. But once a sensational story like that is out there, it is picked up and repeated, and then is impossible to chase down and correct every permutation in the blogosphere.
Typical of the outrageous slanders against it was Juan Williams of "Fox News Sunday," who made the wild claim that the law will lead to "harassment of brown people." I guess the good news for Juan Williams is that illegal Russian and Jordanian immigrants have nothing to worry about.
Now, to the facts. The Arizona law, SB 1070, merely makes a state crime what is already a federal crime. For example, the requirement that legal aliens carry their documentation on their person is already in federal law. All of the provisions of the law were crafted carefully to avoid any conflict with federal law. It specifically prohibits stopping anyone based solely on race or ethnicity. The Arizona law does not attempt to create any new immigration law; it simply gives state law enforcement agencies the power to enforce existing laws and arrest persons who are in the country unlawfully.
Why the hysterical reaction from the left? The reasons are as simple as they are transparent. This act by Arizona lawmakers has exposed two lies the amnesty lobby has been promoting since Obama's election – one small lie and one whopper...

Top 10 Dumbest Things Said About The Arizona Immigration Law
The last few days have seen an extraordinary outburst of criticism of Arizona’s new immigration law. In the nation’s elite media outlets, its most respected commentators are portraying the law as an act of police-state repression. Many, if not all, of the specific criticisms can be refuted simply by reading the law itself, but others are more generalized criticisms of immigration enforcement. In any event, it’s hard to choose the most over-the-top and wrongheaded commentary on the law, but here are ten choices, in no particular order. (If you don’t know why a particular statement is wrong, you can check here, and here, and here, and here.)
1. “The statute requires police officers to stop and question anyone who looks like an illegal immigrant.”– New York Times editorial
2. “As the Arizona abomination makes clear, there is a desperate need for federal immigration action to stop the country from turning into a nation of vigilantes suspicious of anybody with dark skin.”– Dana Milbank, Washington Post
3. “I can’t imagine Arizonans now reverting to German Nazi and Russian Communist techniques whereby people are required to turn one another in to the authorities on any suspicion of documentation.”– Cardinal Roger Mahony
4. “This law creates a suspect class, based in part on ethnicity, considered guilty until they prove themselves innocent. It makes it harder for illegal immigrants to live without scrutiny — but it also makes it harder for some American citizens to live without suspicion and humiliation. Americans are not accustomed to the command ‘Your papers, please,’ however politely delivered. The distinctly American response to such a request would be ‘Go to hell,’ and then ‘See you in court.’”–
Michael Gerson, Washington Post
5. “In case the phrase ‘lawful contact’ makes it appear as if the police are authorized to act only if they observe an undocumented-looking person actually committing a crime, another section strips the statute of even that fig leaf of reassurance. ‘A person is guilty of trespassing,’ the law provides, by being ‘present on any public or private land in this state’ while lacking authorization to be in the United States — a new crime of breathing while undocumented.”–
Linda Greenhouse, New York Times
(Greenhouse’s “trespassing” allegation was based on an early version of the Arizona bill that was not the bill that became law. Her mistake was later removed from the Times site.)
