BUYER Beware of local Ocean City, MD Builder
Porch tile floor has plain old untreated plywood underlayment, deteriorating from moisture.
Now I've got tiles popping up! UGH!
Choose your builder wisely, there are so many things you can't see on a walk-through! Some builders build just to get through the 12 month warranty,
Monogram is obviously one of them!!
A Time for Celebrating... Or Is It?
Yesterday, sitting at Salisbury University's graduation, I suspected Dr. Janet Dudley Eshbach would use the moment to preach her liberal values and that's exactly what she did in a moment meant to celebrate the graduates! While clandestinely intermingling her 'civility' remarks with accomplishment and a reminder to give money to their alma mater, she transformed the ceremony meant to celebrate into a momentary liberal jaunt many students have heard throughout their time at SU.
Graduation is a time-honored tradition designed to celebrate the academic achievements of graduating students and their families, yet, educators like Eshbach, always find a way to inject their political views, either through their own speeches or commencement speaker picks. (i.e. Michelle Obama and Matt Damon) With events like last spring when she quietly covered up two black students' tasteless race-baiting lynching picture in the old Blackwell Library, it is clear her civility remarks were aimed as a slam towards Trump supporters, thus, obliquely promoting violence against them. Because, after all, Trumpers are the ones responsible for all the unrest today in the Liberal mind.

| Note: Wicomico County is RED! |
The Hamilton electors, headed by Nancy Pelosi's daughter (elector for California) Christine, has ranted on about this fake Russian hacking business after unnamed, unverified CIA source(s) stated this unverified, unproven allegation to the Washington Post. Coincidentally (and suspiciously,) this came after Stein's nefarious recount came up empty, with the exception of exposing Democrat cheating in Detroit and garnering more votes for Trump in Wisconsin than originally reported on Election Night.
Other acts of "civility" from the Left include a man being pulled from his car and beaten senselessly before his car was stolen as the perpetrators screamed, "He voted for Trump!" to onlookers. Additionally, over seven police officers have been murdered over the last month.
Let us not forget the night after the Election, there were paid agitators, rioting in such major cities like Seattle, Portland, and New York. Mostly comprised of "snowflake" college students, distraught about not getting their way, older "tolerant" Liberal activists also participated.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, Dr. Dudley Eshbach!
WCSO Adds Two Motorcycles To The Patrol Force
The Wicomico County Sheriff's Office is proud to announce the addition of two 2017 Harley Davidson Electra Glide Police Motorcycles to the patrol force. These much needed motorcycles will be utilized to augment resources during the many parades, wounded warrior events, 5k races, funeral services, and the many other community events which demand the resources of our Sheriff's Office.
Those deputies operating these bikes recently received specialized training in their operation and will be expected to enforce motor-vehicles laws and make criminal apprehensions while providing the citizens of Wicomico County with a highly visible presence.
The costs associated with the acquisition of these bikes were covered with monies seized from local drug dealers coming into or through Wicomico County.
If you see these motors out on the roadway, please give them a thumbs up!
Muslim students demand prayer rooms in every 'major building'
Muslim students, for instance, want “one room in each major building designated for prayer” and “shuttle services to [the local mosque] for Muslim students to have access to a place of worship.”
Agents to go undercover to make public drunkenness arrests at bars, restaurants
Agents plan to conduct undercover operations during the holiday season and into the Super Bowl period to prevent bars and restaurants from serving alcohol to visibly intoxicated patrons.
While the situation has improved over the years, too many visibly intoxicated people are known to get into their vehicles and drive to another destination.
During this operation, if agents view an intoxicated patron being served alcohol, the server, and the establishment may be charged.
The establishment may face administrative penalties as well. The crackdown will run mid-December through mid- February. A special emphasis will be placed on “Happy Hour” enforcement.

State Police Make 450 DUI Arrests Since Thanksgiving – DUI Patrols Continue Through Holiday Season
December 22, 2016
(PIKESVILLE, MD) – Since the Thanksgiving holiday, Maryland state troopers have made 450 DUI arrests and they will continue the focused enforcement through the holiday season by deploying in areas known to have high numbers of DUI arrests or crashes.
As the New Year approaches, barrack commanders from each of the 23 Maryland State Police barracks in the state, will be deploying special patrols focused on identifying and arresting impaired and aggressive drivers. Traffic enforcement efforts will also include speeding, distracted driving and other violations that often contribute to highway tragedies.
Troopers will work in collaboration with allied law enforcement partners statewide during saturation patrols, areas known to have high numbers of impaired driving arrests or crashes. Troopers will also be staffing sobriety checkpoints.
The State Police Impaired Driving Reduction Effort Team (SPIDRE) made 33 arrests out of the total 450 DUI arrests since the Thanksgiving weekend. This team of elite troopers will also be out in force working with law enforcement partners, dedicating their efforts solely to removing drunk drivers from Maryland highways.
Motorists are urged to check travel conditions and delays before traveling. SHA provides up-to-date traffic and road conditions at roads.maryland.gov, or chart.state.md.us. Traffic conditions are also available at md511.org, or by safely dialing 511 on your cell phone.
Troopers remind travelers not to drive distracted, to make traffic safety their first priority whenever they are behind the wheel, and to plan for a sober ride home this holiday season. Santa will not deliver any presents to those who decide to drink and drive.
Anthony Bourdain Pledges to Boycott Trump's DC Restaurant
“I will never eat in his restaurant,” the Parts Unknown host said when asked about chef Alessandro Borgognone bringing a new sushi restaurant, Nakazama, to the new Trump International Hotel in the nation’s capital. “I have utter contempt for him, utter and complete contempt.”
Bourdain said the chef doing business with Trump is “not helpful.”
“I’m not asking you to start putting up barricades now, but when they come and ask you, ‘Are you with us?’ You do have an option,” he said before comparing chefs working with Trump to Germans becoming Nazi soldiers. “You can say ‘No thanks, guys. I don’t look good in a brown shirt. Makes me look a little, I don’t know, not great. It’s not slimming.’”

Heroin overdoses on Maryland's Eastern Shore more than double
The numbers paint a clear picture of the growing problem. In 2015, there were a total of 141 overdoses. As of mid-December 2016, that number had more than doubled to 370 overdoses.
The increase in overall heroin overdoses also translates to more lives lost. In 2015, there were 17 heroin overdose deaths in those counties, but in 2016, that grim statistic had risen to 41 as of mid-December.

Obama: I Told the Russians to ‘Stop It’ and ‘Cut It Out’ After Hacks
“I told Russia to stop it, and indicated there will be consequences when they do it,” he said to reporters during a press conference on Friday.
Obama said that he personally challenged Russian President Vladimir Putin behind the scenes, but he let law enforcement handle the investigations and the release of information.
“In early September when I saw President Putin in China I felt that the most effective way to ensure that that didn’t happen was to talk to him directly and tell him to cut it out, and there were going to be some serious consequences if he didn’t,” he said.
“Our goal continues to be to send a clear message to Russia or others not to do this do to us because we can do stuff to you,” he said.

Governor grant funds plate reader at Rt. 50
In the first round of recipients of the 2016 Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grants from the governor’s office, Ocean City received $50,000 to cover some of the cost for a new plate reader at the Route 50 bridge.
“The remainder of the cost will be covered by other funds including a grant from Homeland Security,” Ocean City Police Public Affairs Specialist Lindsay Richard said. “No city tax dollars will be going towards this project.”
The reader scans thousands of vehicles’ plates in a short time and enters the information in national and state databases. Each plate is cross-referenced against wanted persons, missing persons, gang members and national sex offender lists.

Satanic pentagram vandalized after it was placed next to a Nativity scene
Atheist Preston Smith's 10-foot tall sculpture lay broken in Sanborn Square at noon. Tire tracks led from the twisted metal to the street.
It appeared vandals had attached a chain from a vehicle to the sculpture and yanked it down, dragging it several feet. As local television reporters prepared live broadcasts, two passersby stopped and pushed the sculpture back onto its base before walking away.
The sculpture sits about 20 feet from a traditional Nativity scene of Mary, Joseph and the baby Jesus, and is backed by a banner from an atheist group reading "Keep Saturn in Saturnalias," a reference to the belief that the early Christian church substituted Christmas for a Roman pagan holiday.

INNOCENT! After 21 Years In Prison For ‘Raping’ 13 Yr-Old Girl, Cop is RELEASED After Victim Admits She LIED…
In a life changing turn of events for former Fort Worth, TX police officer, Brian Franklin, he has been exonerated of the rape of a 13 year-old girl, of which he was convicted in 1995 and has served 21 years of a life sentence. The verdict came at the end of a new trial that ended Friday. The new trial was based on the fact that the alleged victim, now in her 30’s, revealed that she had lied and he never raped her.
It was her stepfather who had actually been sexually assaulting her for years, including during the trial, but she was too afraid to testify to that because he was constantly present in the court room. So, based on her lie, and the fact that the jury gave more weight to the testimony of the girl than to the physical evidence, of which there was none, a man was wrongly imprisoned for 21 years. Clearly, it cannot simply be assumed that the alleged victim is telling the truth, it must be proven. 21 years in jail for a crime you didn’t commit is a long, long time.

Leftist Dutch Party Wants to Legalize 'Euthanasia' for Elderly People
It doesn't get much sicker than this (warning: article in Dutch). The left-wing party D66 wants to make euthanasia for people 75 years old and up even if they aren't sick. An "I'm fed up with life" should be enough, the party says, to get a doctor to help these people commit suicide.
D66 will present this new proposal in early 2017. According to the party, there will be clear and strict rules. A so-called expert will have to talk to the suicidal elderly folks several times during a period of two months; another expert will have to rule that the decision was made voluntarily; and, finally, a "commission" will have to review the "application." If everybody agrees, the elderly person can ask his doctor to kill him. All this with the approval of the Dutch government.
The soon-to-be-proposed legislation of D66 is in line with the ideas of the governing coalition, formed by Labour (PvdA) and the VVD (who call themselves classical liberals, but who have increased taxes from the very first day they came to power in 2012). The VVD wants to legalize euthanasia for everybody -- meaning people of all ages, even if they aren't suffering from a sickness that's sure to kill them anyway. At this moment, euthanasia is already legal in the Netherlands for those with incurable, deadly diseases.
