Anonymous has left a new comment on your post "Carla Moore Terminated From The Town Of Pittsville...":
So in my mailbox tonight is a letter from the Town of Pittsville with a survey attached from Mann & Mann Grant Solutions. The Town of Pittsville wants the citizens to complete a survey letting them know what their household income is. The letter states the purpose for collecting this information is for an application to the Maryland Dept. of Housing and Community Development, requesting grant funds for updating the Town's Comprehensive Plan. It goes on to state that the State of Maryland requires that periodic updates be made. Then states that the "Town does not have adequate funds to cover this expense". Well to this I say...I will not be completing this survey. It is none of anyone's business how much I make especially since the Town of Pittsville Council members don't think the taxpaying citizen's have a right to know what happened with Carla Moore. If the rumor is true that it involves theft, then collect that money from her & maybe the town will be able to afford to update the Town's Comprehensive Plan. I have lived in this town for over 25 years & this is the first time I have ever been asked to tell them what my household income is. Not going to happen at least not until they tell the citizens what we want to know!!

Vanishing Ocean City With Bunk Mann
The Dispatch
Hurricane Gloria struck Ocean City a glancing blow this week 28 years ago, on Sept. 27, 1985. Had she scored a direct hit, the loss might have been devastating, perhaps as bad as that experienced by New Jersey following Hurricane Sandy. As it was, Gloria left the Boardwalk in pieces and the amount of sand deposited on the town’s streets was exceeded only by the infamous March Storm of ’62.
Despite the damage, Hurricane Gloria left a positive legacy. It became the catalyst for one of the most important projects in Ocean City’s history -- the beach replenishment program. In a joint effort between federal, state and local governments, sand was pumped from the ocean floor and the beaches widened. A seawall was built along the Boardwalk with steel sections driven 35 feet into the sand. Finally, the dune line was rebuilt from 27th Street to the Delaware line.
It’s been 28 years and Hurricane Gloria remains the last storm to destroy Ocean City’s Boardwalk.

ED-UP NY MAN SETS UP HIDDEN CAMERA TO FIND OUT WHO WAS REPEATEDLY STEALING HIS PRO-GUN SIGN – WHAT HE DISCOVERED BLEW HIM AWAY
A man in Somers, N.Y., hatched a plan to catch the individual responsible for allegedly stealing his pro-gun signs repeatedly from his front yard. He bought a trail cam, set it up near the sign — and then waited.
When he learned that his sign had been taken yet again, he was elated because he knew he had finally caught the person responsible on camera.
He just didn’t expect that person to be a uniformed police officer.

Disney Tightens Up Resort Disability Program
Under the current policy, Disney visitors can get a guest assistance card that grants quicker access to rides, often entering through exit doors to bypass the main lines.
There were widespread reports of able-bodied people abusing the policy.
Some wealthy park visitors were hiring disabled people to pretend to be family members so they could skip lines, the New York Post reported in May. Social researcher Wednesday Martin learned about the practice while researching a book about New York's Park Avenue elite, the Post reported. "It really is happening," Martin told CNN's "Starting Point" in May.

Atlanta Couple Invites 200 Homeless People To Dinner After Daughter Calls Off Her Wedding
As the ancient Sumerian saying goes: Waste not, want not. And it was the waste of a four-course dinner for 200 guests that one couple decided against, after their daughter called off her wedding 40 days before the scheduled nuptials. Instead of simply canceling the vent, the parents still held it — inviting 200 of Atlanta’s homeless to a dinner reception.
The couple joined up with a local charity that serves families in need, reports WBUR.org, to transform the former wedding event into the family’s first annual “Celebration of Love” on Saturday.
