11th Annual Pocomoke City Police Dept. Easter Egg Hunt



The sun managed to shine but those anxious egg hunters didn't seem to mind what kind of weather was in store for the day!

GIRL DIED IN THE YARD

Miss Wainwright's Body Carried to Gas Office Chair.

RUMORS OF EARLY ARRESTS

Young Salisbury, Md., Woman not a Victim of Poison, but of an Operation. Other Employees of Office Say She Complained of Feeling ILL on Fatal Friday Afternoon.

Salisbury, Md., June 24.- Despite the effort being made by the authorities to keep secret the developments in the investigation into the death of Miss Florence Wainwright, the young woman who was found dead in the office of the Home Gas Company Friday night, it is now known the young woman did not die of poison, as first thought, but from an operation performed, it is thought, Friday afternoon in the yard back of the gas company office.

That the young woman did not die sitting at her desk, as was made to appear, now seems certain. In all probability she was carried into the office and placed at the desk, in the position in which she was found.

Harold Smith, the manager of the gas company, testified before the coroner's jury, it is said, that he was in the office all the afternoon, leaving there at 6:15, and that the young woman had been complaining of feeling ill. Smith says he left the young woman alone in the office and went home. He did not summon a physician, and did not offer to call a cab to take her home.

Mrs. Elmer Smith, wife of Elmer Smith, a former employee of the gas company, and a friend of Miss Wainwright, testified, it is said, that she was with the young woman from 4 until 5:45 o'clock, leaving her at the office with Harold Smith. She testified, it is said, that Miss Wainwright was quite ill all the while she was with her. Miss Wingate, the stenographer, employed by the gas company, says she left the office at 5:30 o'clock. No arrests have been made, but rumors persist that there will be soon.

Maryland man makes 'pastries for keeps'

(Excerpts)

DOVER, DEL. (AP)- Dressed in chef's jacket and surrounded by mouthwatering cheesecakes, breads, eclairs, and brownies, Dallas Hewitt looks like the consummate pastry chef.
But you won't smell the aroma of baked goods coming from Hewitt's workshop behind his house in Pocomoke City, Md. In fact, he can't bake worth a lick.

Hewitt's pastries are made from building materials.
Cakes are shaped from blocks of wood and frosted with spackling. If it looks like there are chocolate sprinkles on top, it's really the tiny gravel found in aquariums. Breads and roasted chickens are made from spray insulation that puffs up. Barbequed ribs are a combination of insulation and clothespins.

Hewitt travels to festivals and fairs along the east coast and a few in the midwest to sell his pricey fake food. His booth was the center of attention at the arts and crafts show at the Delmarva Chicken Festival in Dover recently.

Mary Crisco of Felton snapped up a devil's food cake with white icing, and topped with strawberries. She said her kitchen is decorated with a strawberry theme.

"I might have to come to Pocomoke," she said, eyeing a strawberry meringue pie.

Hewitt, a retired car salesman, gets tickled when potential customers cautiously approach his concoctions, unsure whether they're real or fake. They often don't make the connection with the sign bearing his business' name: "Pastries For Keeps."

Tax Dollars: Bail Outs and Monuments
Or
“Where the libs go to get their dough”
By Delegate Mike McDermott
 
 
Here’s a newsflash for those Marylanders concerned about government spending. This morning I arrived at my desk on the floor of the House to find an amendment to the Capital Budget Bill (HB-101) which calls for an appropriation of $900,000.00  to “…design, construct, renovate, and equip a facility for the relocation of Delmarva Public Radio…”.
This comes on the heals of an investment of $135 Million of increased Maryland debt to provide for a “library” facility at Salisbury University with over $100 Million of this money in this year’s proposed Capital Budget.

So it goes with Progressives and Liberals, all those who enjoy feeding at the public trough of everyone elses tax dollars. Here we have a radio station that needs public support from its audience and, having failed to receive it (even with a free massive media blitz) they are able to get Del. Norm Conway to pay the tab with taxpayer dollars.

I cannot help but wonder…are there other projects on the lower shore where we could have spent $136 Million this year? We have roads that are crumbling and local governments coming up millions short. We have US Route 113 that could be completed along with overpasses for $105 million…and then what would we do with the other $31 Million? We have school security issues and a plethora of local public projects where this amount of revenue could have been parceled out to the satisfaction of many.

Much of this type of capital shifting in Annapolis remains unknown on the lower shore. No doubt most taxpayers have no idea how much money is “appropriated” for these types of projects. In the day and age of digital electronics and advancing communications technology, we will spend $135 Million for a brick and mortar library on a college campus…after we pay for tearing down the current  building that occupies the space. We will appropriate $49 Million for “planning and design” and $52 Million for actual construction…and, of course, we will call it a “jobs project” where we will pay “prevailing wages” to contractors (most not from the shore or Maryland for that matter) as a payoff to the unions who control the Democratic Supermajority in the General Assembly.  So to add insult to injury, we will pay 30% more to build these monuments than we would in the private sector.

So it continues in Annapolis with no end in sight.

FEES Included When Virginia's New Tax Refund Card Is Used

Virginia's new tax refund card program is hitting a few bumps in its first year.

Virginians have two options to get their state refunds because paper checks aren't being issued.

Taxpayers can have refunds directly deposited into their bank account or loaded onto a Way2Go tax refund card, which works like a debit card.

So far this year, more than 200,000 refunds have been issued on debit cards, while nearly 1.2 million refunds have been made through direct deposit, the according to the Virginia Department of Taxation.

While taxpayers are supposed to be able to use the cards for free in some instances some say they've been hit with unexpected fees.

"As with most new programs, the startup process hit a few bumps," Joel Davison, a spokesman for the state taxation department. told the Richmond Times-Dispatch.

Davison said the department is working with the card provider, Xerox Corp., to resolve issues related to incorrect information and fees impacting some taxpayers.

Tasley VFD Issues Statement on Smith Status With the Dept.

The Tasley Volunteer Fire Department has issued a statement regarding the status of Charles R. Smith aka Charles R. Applegate.

It says:

  Charles R. Smith, also known as Charles R. Applegate, is a former active member of the Tasley Volunteer Fire Co. and has not participated in any company related activities over the course of the last nearly three years. 

Due to his total lack of interest and participation Charles was removed from the roster for 2012 and considered to be inactive.  

This inactivity includes emergency response operations, company related functions, company community interaction and company communications. Given Mr. Smiths current inactive status and lack of involvement for nearly three years with the company, he was scheduled, along with any other inactive member to be removed from membership in the Spring of 2013 in accordance with company bylaws.

Smith is currently incarcerated in the Accomack County Jail accused of arson in a fire near Melfa on Monday April 1, 2013 along with his companion Tonya Bundick. Smith has confessed to setting many of the 76 arson fires that began in November 2012. 

Other charges are pending.

Gun Bill Overview
by Delegate Mike McDermott
 
What are the provisions of the O’Malley-Brown Gun Bill? The following is a general overview to help you navigate the most significant changes to firearms laws in Maryland following changes made through SB-281 as it passed in the House of Delegates and received concurrance in the Senate.

Firearms/Magazine Changes

  • Exempts all law enforcement officers (active and retired) as well as military personnel from the provisions and restrictions of this act.
  • Designates certain rifles as “Assault Long Guns” on a compiled list which currently contains 45 firearms (including many popular firearms such as the AR-15 and the SKS as well as any of their “Copy Cats”), and bans these delineated firearms for sale in Maryland as of October 1, 2013.
  • Continues the current ban on “Assault Pistols” as delineated on the ban list (has been in effect since 1994).
  • Restricts magazine capacities for all firearms to 10-rounds or less and prohibits the sale of any magazine capable of holding more than 10-rounds.
  • Assault weapons may be transferred through inheritance, and the heir may take possession of the firearm so long as they are not otherwise disqualified from possessing a Regulated Firearm.
  • Assault weapons and magazines may be sold to persons out of state.
  • A person who has purchased or otherwise ordered a banned firearm prior to the October 1, 2013 Effective Date will still be allowed to receive the firearm and possess it even after the Effective Date.

Manufacturers of Firearms

  • Manufacturing facilities are generally exempt from the requirements of this bill.

Licensing Requirements

  • Creates a Handgun Qualification License. In order to purchase a Regulated Firearm (handgun) a person will need to take a Firearm’s Orientation Class consisting of 4-hours of classroom and range training which will cover: state firearm laws, home firearm  safety,handgun mechanisms and operations. The range component of the training includes orientation specific to the firearm involving safe handling. (If someone previously owned a Regulated Firearm, the Firearms Safety and Orientation Class is not required. Also the Maryland Hunter Safety Class/Certification can be taken in lieu of the Firearms Safety/Orientation Class as required.) The person seeking  licensure must also fill out the appropriate application with the Maryland State Police and submit a full set of digital fingerprints. Following a full background check and revue of the applicant and completion of the Safety/Orientation Class, the Secretary of Public Safety shall issue the applicant a Handgun Qualification License which shall be good for 10-years. There are fees associated with this licensure process: $50.00 for the Application Submission coupled with additional fees to be payable to the Central Repository for fingerprint review as well as a separate fee charge for the FBI for their review. There will also be a charge for having the fingerprints received into the system. While some of the fees fluctuate, it is clear the cost for an initial Handgun Qualification License will cost well over $100 payable at the time of the application.

Ammunition Changes

  • Bans a person from possessing any ammunition if they are disqualified from possessing a Regulated Firearm.
  • Bans certain types of bullet compositions (so called “cop killer” bullets)

Mental Health Provisions:

  • Restricts a person who is the subject of an Involuntary Commitment from possessing any firearm and requires them to surrender any firearms in their possession to law enforcement for safe keeping. It also provides for a way for an individual to be granted relief from being Disqualified to possess a firearm. This process involves a hearing review and there are fees associated with this process.

  • Applies these restrictions to persons under a Current Ex Parte Order and Orders for Protection.

New Church Vol. Fire and Rescue Have First 1st Friday Pizza Nite

I hope the New Church Volunteer Fire & Rescue Department's 1st Friday Pizza Nite was as much of a success tonight as their pizza was. Great pizza! 

Poor guys, seemed to have equipment failure just as pizza baking got into swing!  After a wait pizza was once again  baking.  Those firemen were so apologetic!  And I know when they looked out and saw that long line of cars their hearts did flip-flops.  But anyone who cooks a lot can tell you that any oven can give up at any given time.  It's happened to me.  No way to prepare for it.


And no one seemed to mind  the wait at all. - either ahead of us or behind.  And the greatest thing -besides the wonderful pizza- is that you don't have to get out of your car!

THEY EVEN THOUGHT OF DRIVE-THRU!




Next 1st Friday Pizza Nite is MAY 3



Ocean City Police Warning Residents and Business Owners of Counterfeit Currency

The Ocean City Police Department is warning residents, business owners and employees to be on the lookout for counterfeit currency being circulated in Ocean City. Since April 3, 2013, the OCPD has received 5 reports of counterfeit bills in $10 and $20 denominations that are being passed as payments to local businesses.

Ocean City Police are encouraging citizens to closely examine currency by looking carefully at the money you receive. Citizens should be aware of the security features located on currency. The three main security features located on bills are:
  • Shifting inks on the dollar amount located on the face side in the bottom right corner.
  • Security threads, which display the denomination of the currency imbedded in the bill.
  • The watermark located on the face of the bill on the right side.
In addition, the Ocean City Police Department is offering these tips to detect suspicious or counterfeit currency:
  • The genuine portrait appears lifelike and stands out distinctly from the background. The counterfeit portrait is usually lifeless and flat. Details merge into the background, which is often too dark or mottled.
  • On a genuine bill, the saw-tooth points of the Federal Reserve and Treasury seals are clear, distinct and sharp. The counterfeit seals may have uneven, blunt or broken saw-tooth points.
  • Genuine serial numbers have a distinctive style and are evenly spaced. The serial numbers are printed in the same ink color as the Treasury Seal. On a counterfeit, the serial numbers may differ in color or shade of ink from the Treasury seal. The numbers may not be uniformly spaced or aligned.
Ocean City Police are asking that residents and businesses if you locate suspicious currency to please report the incident to police. 

Anyone with any additional information regarding the recent incidents of counterfeit currency occurring in Ocean City is asked to contact the OCPD Criminal Investigation Division Detective David Whitmer at: 410-520-5390.  In addition, the OCPD reminds businesses and community groups that a crime prevention officer is available to conduct counterfeit awareness presentations upon appointment through the Public Affairs Office.

For further information on detecting counterfeit U. S. currency, citizens are encouraged to visit the United States Secret Service Web site at:http://www.secretservice.gov/know_your_money.shtml.

Beretta Leaves Maryland Because of Stricter Gun Laws

Dabney Bailey, Thu, April 04, 2013
New legislation is forcing gun manufacturing company Beretta to uproot and take their business elsewhere.

Established in 1526, Beretta holds the distinction of being the oldest active firearms manufacturer in the world. The U.S. factory is located in Accokeek, Maryland, and has been a staple of the local economy for years.

Beretta warned that stricter gun control laws would push the company outside of state lines, but that didn’t stop Maryland legislators. Jeffrey Reh, a spokesman for Beretta who also serves as the President of Stoeger Industries under Beretta, announced that the company would begrudgingly uproot and take its business elsewhere. He said, “We don’t want to do this, we’re not willing to do this, but obviously this legislation has caused us a serious level of concern within our company.”

He added that Beretta paid approximately $31 million in taxes, employs 400 people, and had invested $73 million in the business over the past several decades. Despite being such a prominent player in the local economy, Beretta was unable to prevent legislators from passing tighter gun control laws.

Ironically, Beretta manufactures some firearms that are now banned in Maryland.

Republican state Delegate Anthony J. O’Donnell lamented: “Losing [Beretta] would be a big disappointment. Maryland has a reputation for having a horrible business climate, and this would be one more nail in the coffin.”

Legislators had ample warning. Back in the ‘90s, when Maryland beefed up gun control laws, Beretta moved one of its warehouses a short drive away to Virginia.

Beretta’s bold move is regrettable but understandable. Reh told reporters, “Why expand in a place where the people who built the gun couldn’t buy it?”

All of Beretta’s pleas fell on deaf ears. Even as Reh lamented Beretta’s looming departure and emphasized the company’s centrality in the local economy during the hearing, Maryland legislators grilled Reh on self-defense.

One legislator stated: “Other than target shooting, the only other reason [for a semi-automic firearm] would be for self-defense… [Why would you need a] rifle that accommodates 20 rounds semi-automatic for deer hunting? … It’s only very infrequently that someone commits a crime with an assault weapon – why do you need one for self-defense?”

Virginia Beach Resident Detained in Afghanistan

  • Mila Mimica

  • WASHINGTON, D.C. (WAVY) - A local representative is calling for the release of a Virginia Beach resident who was detained and beaten in Afghanistan Wednesday.

    According to a news release from Rep. Scott Rigell's (R-VA) office, David Gordon is a contractor for Tamerlane Global Services, Inc., a project management firm based in Reston, Va.
    Gordon "sustained several injuries" Wednesday according to Rigell's letter, and is a father of two with another child on the way. Rigell writes Gordon was sent to an infirmary Thursday.

    The letter claims the Afghan Attorney General's office is asking for $2.4 million for Gordon's release, and the incident is related to "ongoing commercial contract dispute."

    Below is a transcript of the letter to Secretary of State John Kerry, asking for his help in expediting Gordon's release.

    Dear Secretary Kerry,
    An American contractor, Mr. David Gordon, is being illegally detained in Qomandani Amanya, Kabul Afghanistan. We request the Department of State expedite his release from detention.

    Mr. Gordon is a contractor working for Tamerlane Global Services, which is located in northern Virginia. He is a father of two with another child on the way. He was detained April 3, 2013 without any charges levied against him. Additionally, the Deputy Attorney General within the Afghan Attorney General’s office referenced that this was related to an ongoing commercial contract dispute and is asking for US $2.4 million for his release.

    We were deeply concerned to learn that Mr. Gordon was beaten during the night of April 3, sustaining several injuries, and was not sent to the infirmary until April 4, 2013. The threats that he is receiving and the demonstrated lack of protection during his confinement give us serious concern about his welfare.

    We request that the Department of State intervene and expedite the release of this illegally detained American.

    Thank you for your prompt attention on this matter, and we look forward to your response.

    Sincerely,

    Representative Scott Rigell (VA-02)
    Representative Frank Wolf (VA-10)
    Representative Duncan Hunter (CA-50)
