MSP & WCSO Capture Wanted Suspect On Rt. 13
WICOMICO COUNTY COUNCIL TO HOLD PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED FY 2012 OPERATING BUDGET
The Wicomico County Council cordially invites the people of Wicomico County to participate in a public hearing on the County Executive’s Proposed Operating Budget for the fiscal year 2011-2012. The public hearing will be held on Tuesday May 3, 2011 at 6:30 p.m. in the DaNang Room of the Wicomico Youth and Civic Center. The hearing will follow the County Council’s first Legislative Session in May, which will begin at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday May 3rd. at the same location in the civic center.
For the third consecutive year County Executive Richard M. Pollitt, Jr. is asking the County Council to approve a budget which will be lower than the budget for the previous year. Unlike in previous years, the County Executive is asking the County Council to impose a 5 cent increase in the property tax rate and to increase fees for certain county services. If the tax and fee increases are approved the result will not be an increase in county services to residents, or any new programs. Instead, Mr. Pollitt’s budget message says the increases are needed to avoid deeper cuts in vital county services, including education and public safety.
The Proposed Fiscal Year 2012 Operating Budget can be reviewed in its entirety and can be downloaded from the county’s web site: http://www.wicomicocounty.org/ ; look under “What’s New.” For purposes of the public hearing the Proposed Budget will be projected on a large screen in the civic center. Persons who may want their own printed copy of the Proposed Budget should download and print it from the website. Only a very limited number of printed copies will be made for the hearing.
For those who cannot attend the public hearing in person, it will be broadcast live on Comcast Cable, PAC 14 and by delayed replay on Mediacom. In addition to the public hearing, interested persons may telephone, or email any member of the Wicomico County Council, whose contact information may be found on the county web site under County Council.
Comment Issues On Blogger
I was sitting here all morning wondering why we weren't seeing any anonymous comments. Then I got a phone call asking me if I had set the site back up to registered comments only.
The answer to that question is, no. I looked into it and everything is set up properly, so there has to be an issue with Blogger for the time being.
My apologies for any inconvenience this may cause. I'm sure they'll have it back up and running soon.
Superman Renounces His Citizenship In 900th Issue Of 'Action Comics'
Photo not from original article.
Superman is no longer an American.
In "Action Comics’" new record-breaking 900th issue, the fictional iconic super hero renounces his U.S citizenship following a clash with the federal government.
The Man of Steel, created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938, has always been recognized as a devoted American warrior who constantly fought evil, but as of Thursday, he is no longer the country's own to claim.
No word yet if Superman will change his red and blue suit, or his longtime motto "truth, justice and the American way" -- but the landmark issue is certainly sparking controversy.
The Man of Steel, created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in 1938, has always been recognized as a devoted American warrior who constantly fought evil, but as of Thursday, he is no longer the country's own to claim.
No word yet if Superman will change his red and blue suit, or his longtime motto "truth, justice and the American way" -- but the landmark issue is certainly sparking controversy.
"Besides being riddled with a blatant lack of patriotism, and respect for our country, Superman's current creators are belittling the United States as a whole. By denouncing his citizenship, Superman becomes an eerie metaphor for the current economic and power status the country holds worldwide," Hollywood publicist and GOP activist Angie Meyer told FOX411's Pop Tarts column.
What's Behind Seniors' Fears Of GOP Medicare Plan?
'They kind of see themselves as guardians of the programs for their children,' says chief AARP strategist
WASHINGTON — The Republican plan to privatize Medicare wouldn't touch his benefits, but Walter Dotson still doesn't like the idea. He worries about the consequences long after he's gone, for the grandson he is raising.
"I'd certainly hate to see him without the benefits that I've got," said Dotson, 72, steering a high school sophomore toward adulthood.
The loudest objections to the GOP Medicare plan are coming from seniors, who swung to Republicans in last year's congressional elections, and many have been complaining at town-hall meetings with their representatives during the current congressional recess. Some experts say GOP policymakers may have overlooked a defining trait among older people: concern for the welfare of the next generations.
"I remember the days when we had poor farms and elderly people on welfare, before we had Social Security and Medicare for seniors, and I'm afraid it will lead right back to that situation," added Dotson, from the village of Cleveland in rural southwest Virginia.

Marines Trained On Accepting Gay Recruits
Nothing wrong with 'hanging around' a gay bar, troops are told as part of training
SAN DIEGO — If a Marine spots two men in his battalion kissing off-duty at a shopping mall, he should react as if he were seeing a man and woman.
If he turns on the television news to see a fellow Marine dressed as a civilian and marching in a parade with a banner that reads, "Support Gays and Lesbians in the Military!" he should accept it as a free right of expression.
Prescriptions for those possible scenarios are being played out at Marine bases as the military prepares to allow gays to openly serve, ending a 17-year-old policy commonly known as "don't ask, don't tell." Training for the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines began early this year and is expected to finish by summer's end.
The repeal goes into effect 60 days after the president, defense secretary and chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff certify that lifting the ban won't hurt the military's ability to fight.
"These changes are about policy," states briefing material for Marine instructors. "The policy is about adherence to orders and behavior, and not about beliefs."

The Club for Growth adds "LifeScore" to Raings; Senator DeMint, Senator Coburn receive perfect scores in 2010
Washington, DC - Today, the Club for Growth released its 2010 Congressional Scorecard, which ranks the voting behavior of members of Congres based on economic growth issues. The Club also added a new feature to the Club for Growth Scorecard: each member of Congress is now assigned a new liftetime rating or a "LifeScore", so that Club Members can determine who has been a consistent advocate for Economic Freedom throughout their career in Congress.

"The Club for Growth values principle over political expediency," said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. "Our new 'LifeScore' will educate citizens on who has consistently defended economic freedom and pushed pro-growth policies in Congress. Club Members want their elected leaders to vote on the side of economic freedom every time, not just at election time."
With the additon of LifeScore, The Club for Growth has revised the criteria to receive the Club's Defender of Economic Freedom award. In past years, awards were given to anyone who scored 90 or better. Beginning with this year's scorecard, The Club for Growth required Representatives and Senators to not only score 90 or better on votes cast in 2010, but to also have a LifeScore of at least 90.
Highlights of the Club for Growth's 2010 Congressional Scorecard:
- Two United States Senators received perfect scores: Jim DeMint (SC), and Tom Coburn (OK)
- Senator Jim DeMint is the only Senator to have a 100 percent LifeScore
- Five Congressmen have 100 percent LifeScores: Jeff Flake (AZ-06), Tom McClintock (CA-04), Doug Lamborn (CO-05), Paul Broun, (GA-10), and Jeb Hensarling (TX-05)
- Senators Jon Kyl (AZ), Jim Inhofe (OK), and Jim Risch (ID) had 2010 scores and LifeScores high enough to qualify for the Defender of Economic Freedom award
- Thirty House members who received scores of 90 percent or better in 2010 also had LifeScores of 90 or better to qualify for the Defender of Economic Freedom award. Seventeen of those also had scores of 100 percent in 2010
- 24 Senate Democrats scored zero, including one Independent who caucuses with the Democrats. 47 scored below 10 percent
- 195 out of 255 House Democrats scored lower than ten percent, and 128 scored zero percent

Statement On Federal Reserve's Press Conference
"Chairman Bernanke's press conference today was unprecedented, and it demonstrates that Federal Reserve officials are very concerned about growing public criticism of Fed policies. Although Mr. Bernanke predictably provided no substantive information, the American people want real answers about Fed bailouts, lending to foreign banks, and most of all inflation. Mr. Bernanke continues to ignore his culpability for the inflation all Americans suffer due to the Fed's relentless monetary expansion. Rising prices are the direct result of Fed devaluation of our dollar. Yet rather than addressing the Fed's loose dollar policy, Mr. Bernanke continues to assure us that inflation is not a problem.
Without the Federal Reserve's relentless expansion of credit throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, there could have been no excessive borrowing or explosion of subprime lending. Through easy credit, the Fed initiated the economic boom that created the dot-com bubble. When that bubble burst the Fed pumped additional liquidity into the system, which led to a new boom that created the housing bubble. Commodity prices have risen rapidly, producer prices have followed suit and consumers are already seeing the beginning of massive price increases passed on to them. And now the Fed's additional trillions of dollars in monetary pumping is creating yet another bubble. This is the exact opposite of stability in the marketplace and has nothing to do with free markets. It is central economic planning at its worst. And the end result may be hyperinflation and the destruction of our currency.

GOVERNOR MARTIN O’MALLEY ANNOUNCES ROBERT M. SUMMERS AS MARYLAND’S SECRETARY OF ENVIRONMENT
ANNAPOLIS, MD (April 28, 2011) – At a meeting of the Executive Cabinet today, Governor Martin O’Malley announced the appointment of Robert M. Summers, Ph.D. as Maryland’s Secretary of the Environment. Summers has served as Deputy Secretary for the Department of the Environment since January 2007 and has been Acting Secretary since December 2010. Throughout his 27-year career, Dr. Summers has been a key contributor to Maryland’s nationally prominent environmental programs, including the multi-jurisdictional Chesapeake Bay restoration effort.
“I am pleased to announce Dr. Summers as our Secretary for the Environment,” said Governor O’Malley. “With his highly-regarded expertise, straightforward approach to finding workable solutions, and passion for clean water, clean air and a healthy environment, we are confident that his continued leadership will serve the people of our State well as we work to protect our environmental priorities.”
“I am honored to be asked to lead the Department’s work to safeguard drinking water, clean up the Chesapeake Bay and local rivers and streams, make our air healthier to breathe, and protect families from hazards -- including childhood lead poisoning,” said Dr. Summers. “I am committed to application of the best science, the best service using e-commerce, predictability and transparency in permitting, and encouraging innovative technologies to protect public health and the environment. We have an enormous opportunity to foster innovation and create jobs with the Bay and environmental restoration, just like we are doing with climate change and renewable energy.”
For 27 years, Summers has served in various capacities within Maryland’s progressive and nationally recognized environmental programs, with emphasis on scientific and technical issues related to water pollution control, drinking water protection and federal, State and local government environmental laws and regulations. Summers has worked at MDE since its creation in 1987 and has served as the Director of the Water Management Administration and Director of the Technical and Regulatory Services Administration.
“Dr. Summers’ history of dedication to the Chesapeake Bay and the State of Maryland, as well as his professional background and personal skills, will make him a valuable member of Governor O’Malley’s cabinet as Maryland moves forward in its ongoing role as a leader on environmental matters,” said Kim Coble, Maryland Executive Director of the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.
“Dr. Summers’ technical expertise as well as his leadership role in developing Maryland’s portion of the Chesapeake Bay restoration strategy reflects a sound understanding of the science involved and the steps necessary to achieve the Bay restoration and cleanup,” said Kathleen T. Snyder, President and CEO of the Maryland Chamber of Commerce. “Dr. Summers has also shown the ability to balance numerous competing interests and broad-reaching requirements -- such an approach ensures environmental protection with consideration to impacts on all sectors.”
Dr. Summers currently serves as Maryland’s Commissioner on the Susquehanna River Basin Commission, the Interstate Commission on the Potomac River Basin and the Appalachian States’ Low Level Radioactive Waste Commission.
Dr. Summers received his B.A. (1976) and Ph.D. (1982) in Environmental Engineering from the Johns Hopkins University, under the tutelage of the late Dr. M. Gordon (“Reds”) Wolman.
Some of the Department’s achievements under the O’Malley-Brown Administration include:
· Leading development of a strong State Watershed Implementation Plan, as part of EPA’s plan to restore the Chesapeake Bay;
· Enacting new regulations to reduce pollution from stormwater runoff, the fastest-growing source of Bay pollution;
· Issuing new regulations and a permit on Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations to, for the first time, implement manure handling requirements on 85 percent of poultry litter generated from Maryland’s poultry operations;
· Jump-starting the Bay Restoration Fund septic upgrades program;
· Aggressively enforcing the State’s lead laws, testing more children for lead poisoning and reporting fewer children with lead poisoning than ever before;
· Implementing the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Act of 2009, which calls for a 25 percent reduction in state greenhouse gas emissions by 2020;
· Leading Maryland’s participation in the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, the country’s first cap-and-trade program, which has raised $162.4 million for programs to promote cleaner energy sources, energy efficiency and conservation, and provide rate relief for low and moderate income households; and
· Implementing Maryland’s Clean Cars legislation, implementing stricter vehicle emission standards targeted at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality.
