"For the chocolate eaters, let me offer a suggestion. Instead of ordinary
American chocolate, which has a trace of cacao diluted with a great deal of

did, that you eat much less to attain the proper blood-chocolate level.  And
if all else fails, remember that chocolate IS a fruit!" posted by James

Impact of the 111th Congress by Don Kornreich

Don Kornreich
Impact of the 111th Congress
Originally published January 09, 2011  http://www.fredericknewspost.com/sections/opinion/display_comments_columnist.htm?section=dKornreich&storyID=114923#postComments

Hat Tip: Steve Berryman: http://www.mediahooker1.blogspot.com/

The 111th Congress is no more. The November elections appeared to confirm what the "public" believed about the 111th Congress: overwhelmingly disapproving of its performance -- with only 13 percent giving it a positive rating. The elections gave the Republicans a significant majority in the House and more seats (although not a majority) in the Senate.

Yet the Democratic-controlled 111th Congress did not rest on its laurels in the final weeks of its session. To the contrary, it actively, and to a large extent successfully, pursued its agenda during the postelection "lame-duck" session. As a result, legislation was enacted extending, for another two years, the tax rate reductions passed during the Bush presidency. The underpinning for the extension is the belief that they will be a strong and productive economic stimulus to begin to reduce our lingering high unemployment rate, which as of November was 9.8 percent.

There remains to be dealt with the impact of the rate reductions on our growing national debt and annual budget deficits. It will be up to the 112th Congress to find a way to offset the budget deficits. As a result, in my opinion, reducing the amount of federal spending will be at the core of a lot that will be the concern of the new Congress....http://www.fredericknewspost.com/sections/opinion/display_comments_columnist.htm?section=dKornreich&storyID=114923#postComments

Kevin Dayhoff - The Tentacle: Remembering Those in Harm’s Way


Kevin Dayhoff – The Tentacle: Police deaths spike in 2010

Remembering Those in Harm’s Way


With the New Year rapidly approaching, much of the media now turns its attention to ruminating over what were the Top 10 stories of the year. Perhaps one the most disturbing stories was the “Alarming Rise in 2010 Law Enforcement Officer Fatalities.”

2010 was a tough year and there are plenty of stories about natural, political, and economic disasters to regale future generations.

However, our great nation will survive and, for the most part, we will rebound economically, muddle along politically and eventually recover from the natural – and man-made disasters; but the loss of a police officer is forever – for the family, loved-ones, and the community.

It erodes the social network fabric which ensures our quality of life and future... http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=4137

A total of 160 federal, state and local law enforcement officers died in the line of duty during the past 12 months, according to preliminary data compiled by the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF). This represents a dramatic increase over the 117 officer fatalities in 2009, which marked a 50-year low.

June 16, 2010 “To preserve the American Dream” by Kevin E. Dayhoff

In the early hours of Monday morning my late night meanderings at the keyboard were interrupted by a cryptic message on the police scanner – a motorist had fired on a Carroll County deputy during a traffic stop.

Old Westminster Pike… his gun misfired, “I got one round off,” reported the deputy in somewhat uncharacteristically descriptive plain English.

Keeping the chatter of the police scanner on in the background while I work is an old habit of multiple origins. Over the many years I’ve learned to interpret the strange language of numbers, tones, code words and the humor – or excitement – of inside police baseball.

What I heard being communicated in the professionally composed dialogue that ensued was that a police officer had just had a life-threatening random brush with the chaos that can be law enforcement late at night

According to the police scanner, the suspect sped away from the scene only to quickly overturn. The suspect then fled on foot and the manhunt began in earnest.

As this column comes together, a statewide manhunt for the suspect continues.

A press release issued later on Monday told more of the story. “… Deputy 1st Class Brant Webb was patrolling in a marked sheriff’s car on Old Westminster Pike near Reese Road (just east of the Westminster city limits,) when he stopped a 1998 Ford Explorer for displaying suspended registration.

“As the deputy contacted the driver, he thrust a handgun out the window and attempted to fire a shot at the deputy; but the handgun reportedly misfired. The deputy backed away from the vehicle, and returned fire as the driver accelerated away from the traffic stop…”

The suspect, “Brian Joseph Hill aged 27 of the 3900 block Penhurst Avenue, Baltimore…  has been known to associate with members of the Crips and he is considered armed and dangerous.”

June 23, 2010 “The First Among The Many” by Kevin E. Dayhoff

The name Isaac Smith is not necessarily a household word for most people. He died on May 17, 1792. From various accounts we learn that he was a man of many talents including a war hero, farmer, doctor, and politician.

He was also a deputy sheriff who died in the line of duty when he answered the call to help a fellow officer in a tavern owned by Levi Hunt in what was then Westchester County just outside New York City.

In response to my June 16, column on TheTentacle.com, “To preserve the American Dream,” several sharp-eyed readers asked for more information about the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund (NLEOMF) observation, “Crime fighting has taken its toll. Since the first recorded police death in 1792, there have been more than 15,000 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty.”

As a matter of fact, many news articles about tragedies that befall police officers in the line of duty will state, “Since the first recorded police death in 1792…” but never mention Deputy Smith.

So, what happened in 1792? Who was Deputy Smith and what were the circumstances of his death? …  http://www.thetentacle.com/ShowArticle.cfm?mydocid=3822
