If you have ever seen the film Rudy, then you know that its about a kid who wills his way onto the Notre Dame Fighting Irish football team against incredible odds. Rudy is a 1993 film directed by David Anspaugh. It is an account of the life of Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger who harbored dreams of playing football at the University of Notre Dame despite significant obstacles. It was the first movie the Notre Dame administration allowed to be shot on campus since Knute Rockne, All American in 1940. In 2005 Rudy was named one of the best 25 sports movies of the previous 25 years in two polls by ESPN (#24 by a panel of sports experts, and #4 by espn.com users).
In the movie, the main character Rudy Ruettiger defies all odds to make the team. He doesnt have the grades, so he goes to another college to get them, and he doesnt have the money, but he works his tail off to get to the necessary funds. Rudy wasnt a very good football playerhe was slow and undersizedbut he wouldnt take no for an answer and eventually made the team at Notre Dame. He gets in for one play late in a meaningless game and his teammates pull for him, because the one thing he has cannot be deniedand its called
This movie is significant to me because I happen to know a real-life Rudy. His name is Christopher Gurries, and he is the son of my best friend from high school. Chris walked-on at Notre Dame and miraculously made the team. A star at Bishop Manogue High School in Reno, he was a very good football player. Since no major Division I colleges recruited him, he decided to not play football and attend Notre Dame.
During his freshman year, Gurries walked on and although he didnt make the team that time, he didnt give up, either. This off-season, he worked hard and trained like crazy. Well, it all paid off; because Gurries made the team as one of the few walk-ons to successfully make the varsity.
Whether he gets significant playing time is another question entirely. But, it doesnt matterbecause he made the team and will be able to tell his kids and grandchildren that along with Knute Rockne, Joe Montana and the Gipper, he played for the Fighting Irish and made the squad.
Congratulations to Christopher Gurries. Youre our Rudy and we admire your passion. Look for him this year if you ever get the chance to watch a Notre Dame game. Hes number 38, a 5 180 lb. long snapper and wide receiver with a heart bigger than South Bend.

I have had several requests for some solo masturbation videos featuring my big boobs. So late one night I made a girlfriend grab the video camera and record some video of me showing off for her and you. I was really excited to do a little virtual lap dance and striptease showing off my boobs and of course masturbating. I started off rubbing my body swaying to the music. I pulled my big breasts out of my corset and squeezed them. I love to play with my tits. Then I pulled my ruffled panties down to my ankles so you could see me rub my wet pussy. I sat down and licked my fingers, as I wanted them to be nice and wet so they would slip back and forth over my pussy lips. I wiggled and rolled around the couch rubbing myself and moaning, grinding my hips and I tried to keep my pussy up in the air so you could see. I felt great by the time I had finished and opened my eyes, I had a little crowd gathered around watching me with Bruce and a few friends. Lol I hope you like it.

So today I got to sleep sleep sleep and it was amazing. I went to bed at like 6 (AM in case youapos;re wondering) and slept (not all the way, but still) until around 1:30. Aaaaah yes. The only bad thing was at one point it was like 9 or something and my room mate and her friends were up baking cinnamon buns. Noooo they smelled so good thatapos;s not fair But sleep prevailed and I just snoozed more.

I woke up in time to get a delightful package from my crazy family. Yay You guys are awesome, I love you so much. It was the perfect mixture of goodies from everybody: tea, pudding mix (Iapos;ve slightly gotten over my pudding trauma), hot chocolate, popcorn, reeses peanut butter cups, pitot, those funny israeli wafers, pumpkin cookies... And a fantastic card to boot Honeyapos;s face is priceless. It was a package made of win and love and Iapos;m sending digital mwums and ugs and shanah tovahs to all of you.

So after that I got ready to go to the mall. First I wanted to stop off on campus to get more mouthwash. The whole system is like this. The only bus that goes to my apartment is the V bus. But to get to the mall, I have to take the M bus and to that I have to take the V to campus and wait for the M. And of course the M bus was more than half an hour late. But regardless I ended up at my destination anyway even if a little later. At Macyapos;s as I was just getting in I noticed this shirt with the coolest design on it. The only problem was that it was a medium boyapos;s shirt, so it was kind of big on me. But it was just too cool to pass up so I got it anyway. I went to Hot Topic and one of the guys working there asked me what I was listening to and he was surprised when I said Finntroll. Haha I got an A7x shirt and a striped hoodie, because I needed another one with an actually good hood because of all the rain. Not that it matters, because even if the rain doesnapos;t get to my hair the humidity will, but I still like big hoods (and I cannot lie)

So Iapos;m waiting for the bus back. Its supposed to be there at 8:16. The show is at 10:00. Not so bad, Iapos;ll get back home with plenty of time to make dinner put everything away and come back.

Time passes. Its now 8:26. Okay so maybe Iapos;ll have time to eat some dinner. Still okay.

..... Well now its 8:46. Maybe Iapos;ll have time to put my stuff away?

8:56. I fucking hate you Penn State bus system. Choke and die.

So I figured Iapos;d get something to eat on campus and then just go from there because at this point it wouldnapos;t even make sense to go back home. I got a wrap from McLanahanapos;s and a coffee from Starbucks. I always like telling them my name is something different every time which works because I donapos;t go often. As I was waiting, one of the guys working was like, "Hey you like A7x? What do you think of their newest CD?" I said I really liked it, although it did take me some time to get to like some of the songs. He said he didnapos;t like how they were deviating from their old style so much. Apparently heapos;s only getting into metal, but he was excited about the new Metallica CD. This is cool, but I said I like Megadeth better. Somewhere out there, Dave Mustaine can sleep a little easier (and dream of killing Lars Ulrich.)

I headed off to my teacherapos;s house. It was still kind of early. A lot of people were in the living room watching the football game and the band was rehearsing in the basement. I went outside and just stood alone listening to them playing. Eventually someone came to talk to me. It turns out that heapos;s actually the bassist for the band playing. So we talk about this and that. Heapos;s a really cool guy. I mentioned that I was a drummer and he thought that was cool, although to be honest its not surprising. Female drummers, especially good ones, are hard to find. I mean, think of famous female drummers and you get maybe a handful. He said that he thought he knew another bassist who might need a drummer to play with so yay thatapos;d be cool.

Of course it makes me a little nervous too. I mean, I do have a talent and Iapos;m good at what I know, but I mean, thereapos;s still part of me thatapos;s like "whoah wait, I canapos;t play with real people yet Theyapos;re actually good" Watching the drummer play today I felt at once super excited and a little nervous. This is what I really want to do, no doubt about it. And I could most likely do what he was doing with practice but still, how will I be able to come up with my own unique rhythms when Iapos;m still learning a lot of stuff? And I have to be really good so itapos;ll really be a surprise to see a girl rocking out with the best of them.

Anyway I talked with a few more people, although for the most part I was happy to just stand apart and watch. There were a lot of butch lesbians, and Iapos;m sure they were all drummers. We moved inside at one point apos;cause it was getting rainy and anyway the show was about to start. There was this one guy who noticed me standing alone and figured I was shy/lonely and started talking to me, which I suppose was a nice gesture even if it wasnapos;t true. He asked me a really weird question, too: Would you do it with a zombie? I said sure, if I really loved the zombie. He then corrected the question: Would you do it with a celebrity if he was a zombie? What? Well I wouldnapos;t "do it" with any celebrity whether he was a zombie or not. The guy was kind of surprised by that answer, but really, I donapos;t get how people can think of celebrityapos;s that way. Theyapos;re not public property, theyapos;re people. Let them live their own lives. Of course, if this celebrity was my boyfriend then thatapos;s another story...

The band itself (Electric Lemonade Stand) was pretty cool. They were a pretty typical rock band, with a few nifty surprises thrown in. Of course I love how everything ties in. People can listen to music and just hear it as "another song" but its really amazing how everything can really just mesh together and end up sounding great, both in their own parts and as a whole. Every instrument has an important job. And of course thereapos;s the job of the players in making funny faces as they play. Iapos;m sure this is part of band practice, practicing funny faces to make while youapos;re playing. My drum teacher played in a few songs too, although with the saxophone and not drums but it was still cool. After the show I talked with the bassist some more as the next band started setting up, but I had to leave then or else I would miss the last bus for home. I kind of wish I could have stayed, because the new band looked interesting, with a cellist but oh well.

All in all, it made me really excited for my lesson tomorrow. I canapos;t wait until I can play in a band too I feel a little better about it because at least I donapos;t have to come up with most of the lyrics and stuff, because I know I just couldnapos;t do that. But still, Iapos;m a little nervous. I wish Miki was here now so that we could play together. I think itapos;d be the coolest.

So I walked in the rain to the bus stop, and hey the bus was there on time, even a little early When I first got on I was the only one on the bus and I was so excited, but of course it didnapos;t stay this way for long. Oh well. I got back just in time for some Miki time and now its just so late I neeed sleep so I can wake up in time for my lesson. Sleepy sleepy sleepy.

Point-Spreads.com has learned that Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear will be successful in stealing some but not all of the 141 online gambling domain names! Several top brands that are in jeopardy include GoldenPalace.com, WSEX.com, SportsBetting.com, FullTiltPoker.com, PokerStars.com CakePoker.com, DoylesRoom.com and several others.
The internet gambling industry was sent in a tail spin when Point-Spreads.com broken the news yesterday morning of the attempted domain name hijacking. Senior management of the various online gambling business entities that own some of the domain names in question were traveling to Barcelona to attend the annual EiG internet gambling industry conference are now finally able to deal with the situation and it does not look good for a few of them.
Some operators have already told Point-Spreads.com that they cannot transfer the ownership of the domain names, they cannot transfer the registrars and are unable to change DNS. Not a good sign at all, but how can that be? Under Rule 8(a) and 8(b) (see below) domain name holders are unable to transfer ownership or move registrars pending a hearing to challenge the request of seizure by Kentucky on Thursday September 25th.
The actions taken by Kentucky also have serious repercussions for anyone working within the e-commerce and internet space.
If that is not a clear case of abuse of power, I dont know what one is, Joe Brennan, Jr. founder of iMEGA, said. The Interactive Media Entertainment Gaming Association was founded to foster cooperation between the online industry and government at all levels, and to promote innovation, openness and freedom on the Internet.
Can a judge in Kentucky actually issue a court order that is enforced by ICANN over a foreign e-commerce business? Before that can be answered, one must understand the jurisdictional issues of “owning” a domain name.
Basically, the jurisdiction used for disputes is either the location of the Registrar that the domain name is stored at or the address on file with that Registrar for the “owner” of the domain name. Several of the online gambling domain names in question were actually stored at Registrar’s located within the United States. Some, if not all of those domain names are going to be seized.
Let’s be real, TwinSpires.com which is a online gambling internet website owned by Churchill Downs Incorporated out of Louisville, the same group that runs the Kentucky Derby, is the biggest benefactor to Kentucky’s attempted to steal the 141 domain names. This is not about protecting its citizens, its about protecting a Kentucky based corporation from having competition in its local market. Shame on the Governor of Kentucky.
The industry needs to take this very seriously and not just the online gambling operators, commented Christopher Costigan, Publisher of Gambling911.com. An order in Kentucky will open the doors for other states to take similar actions and who knows what might be next? Maybe other states will start going after hosting companies for conducting business with Internet gambling affiliates, and even worse they can go after the registrars. The states are hurting right now due to the economy and they are looking for ways to protect key industries such as the land based casinos and - in the case of Kentucky - the horse racing industry. If they see the industry is not going to stand up and challenge these matters, Im afraid to say it but there is almost certainly more bad news to come down the road.
It’s obvious to everyone observing this story that Kentucky did not think this decision through all the way. Could the government of another state or country go after domain names owned by Kentucky businesses if the said state or country deems the activity of said website be illegal? Only time will tell and we will have to wait until after the hearing this Thursday to find out the outcome. Point-Spreads.com urges other operators to make sure that their domain name registrar is one that is based out of the United States and preferablly in a gaming friendly jurisdiction to help mitigate the likelihood of their domain name portfolios from being stolen in the future.
Here is a comment left on KYpost.com news website about the domain name seizure attempt by Governor Steve Beshear by an unhappy resident of Kentucky:
It has become more apparent that Gov. Beshear is nothing more than a shill for the gaming industry. With all of the problems that this state faces.

Itapos;s Carmenapos;s last day. Sheapos;s been one of the three temps weapos;ve had in covering my position whilst the agency has been trying to backfill Amyapos;s position.

The new person starts next Wednesday - so itapos;s been a while - a good six months at least cause Amy left just before Easter.

Carmenapos;s been lovely. Sheapos;s really sweet, very hard working and itapos;s been such an immense pleasure having her here. I wanted to thank her personally, so I went out last night to Myer in Morley and got Carmen a Swarovski flower, and Ivana a Swarovski ladybug.

I gave Carmen hers this morning. She was really pleased with it, and then she read the card... And started to cry. I made Carmen cry on her last day. :( Not what Iapos;d intended to do, cause then of course, I started to cry. But Iapos;m glad she liked her flower... I just wish she wasnapos;t going cause Iapos;m going to miss her.

I thought of tweaking my top Greatest Billiard players into a mold of pound per pound greats. Though there are no inkling similarities between the two sports but nonetheless they both given fans exciting and mouth watering matches.
7. Mikka immonem- A former world champion in Billiards has a distinct approached in his shots. He is aggressive but at times tricky he is a good counter puncher but sometimes his aggressiveness could result to loosing more rounds.
6. Earl “The Pearl” Strickland- The typical trash talking player who could ruin anybody’s day Earl has a behavior of a 12 year old kid. Who lets his emotions get to him his accomplishments over the past 25 years in Billiards make him a future hall of famer… He has the skills of a Floyd Mayweather with a mouth like a Bernard Hopkins.
5. Johnny “The Scorpion” Archer- A two time nine-ball champion has won 60 professional tournaments throughout his career. Archer has a cool demeanor and has a killer instinct in close matches. He is the typical boxer in billiards though his recent outing wasn’t a good one.
4. Francisco “Django” Bustamante – He is similar to Boom boom Mancini or an Edwin Valero in the present. Django can hit the billiard balls with power. He is one of the greatest Filipino player to play the game. Valero had a 100 percent KO rate and has tied the record of 18 KO’s in the first round while Django holds the world record for the most powerful break shot at 43 miles per hour. Bustamante’s strength is his power he has won numerous tournaments in his career but his 2002 ordeal in the World Pool championships was a devastating one. His daughter died and had to carry his emotions going to the finals against 2-time winner of the tournament Earl Strickland. Though Bustamante failed to win against Earl but his stroke of luck began carrying him to the series of tournaments that followed.
3. Alex Pagulayan- Born and raised in the Philippines until Alex turned 13 where his family immigrated to Canada, Alex grew up in a pool hall managed by his father and started his love for the sport. A very skilled player who could even pocket five balls in one break he won the recent World Pool Masters in Las Vegas although Alex is a likeable pool player but he is mistakenly labeled as a sour loser. His skill is tremendous and with years ahead Alex future is still shining bright. He is more like Juan Diaz who could throw five or 6 combinations and at only 28 Alex Pagulayan still has more matches ahead.
2. Ralph Souquet – One of the greatest European pool master in the world Ralph have fought Many battles in his colorful career with his latest 2008 world 8 ball championship.
Ralph is the Joe Calzaghe in billiards a future hall of famer with a charismatic attitude.
1. Efren “Bata” Reyes – The so called magician. He made the most impossible shots and has given him recognition as one of the greatest player in billiards. His faced off with Earl Strickland could be one of the greatest matchup in billiards their 3 day race to 120 challenge match in 9-ball was the largest single-winning purse in a pool event which Reyes won 120-117. Reyes won most of the money-rich tourneys worldwide and his success made him the Philippines Sports Ambassador in 2005 South East Asian games.
He had commercials and movies but Efren’s undoubting charisma made him more loveable and could easily be compared to Oscar De La Hoya with Manny Pacquiao like humble attitude. Efren is still actively playing but his age is slowly catching up on him. He doesn’t need to worry about legacy since it’s already been etched down.
So here you go folks my 2008 pound per pound ratings in billiards.

I had a blast playing Particle Blaster. You get this little tiny green ship that shoots out colored balls in a stream. You need to shoot the hostile geometric shapes of various sizes and colors before they destroy you in this fast-moving online arcade game. Click and hold your left mouse button to fire your Particle Blaster. The faster you explode the shapes, the more points you earn (if you take too long you get a negative number!) I got to level 10 of 14, before I had to go back to work. Oh, and I almost forgot, the background music is really cool too.

wheelchair since he was injured in a workplace accident 20 years ago.

He said along with his family, pool has always been the love of his life. Though, he said, learning how to play from a wheelchair was frustrating at times.

It was difficult for a couple years, but as I get used to playing in a chair I actually feel bad for the people who have to be standing all of the time, he said with a laugh. They get tired, he cracked.

Brunelle said there arent many advantages for pool players in wheelchairs.

re at the right height for eye level, but thats about it. But like anything in life youve got to look at the positives. There is an awful lot of negatives, but it is great to be able to come out and play, he said.

Anyone who wanted to play in the tournament had to play from a wheelchair, even if they could walk out of it at the end of the day.

It gives them a good perspective of what it is like to participate in activities while in a wheelchair, said Al Buchan, PUSH Northwests treasurer.

Each player had to raise at least $30 in pledges or pay $30 to participate in the tournament.

Buchan said at the event that he had yet to count how much money was raised.

We are a non profit agency so every little bit helps, he said.

PUSH Northwest was founded in 1981.

Dear Mr. Miller:

Thank you for writing to me with your concerns about oil and natural gas drilling on public lands . I look for ward to a day when the production of oil and gas on any public land is no longer necessary, and our nation is instead powered predominately by clean, renewable energy sources.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM), which operates under the Department of the Interior, is the agency charged with administe r ing the majority of America 's public lands and th e natural resources that reside within these lands. S ince 1920, the BLM has overseen the leasing, exploration, and production of coal, oil, gas, and sodium on public lands in the United States . If drilling is going to take place, I support agency ov ersight that is as transparent as possible. Any r ule changes, for example, should be open to public review and comment well before the y take place.

T he de velopment of public lands for private profit is a decision that must n ot be taken lightly. Throughout my legislative career, I have opposed oil and gas drilling in our wil derness areas and national park s, because I believe w e have a duty to leave wild ecosystems as intact and untouched by the human hand as possible. This is why I have consistently voted to protect sensitive marine and coastal zon es, such as Bristol Bay, and treasured wilderness areas like the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) from oil and gas development .

There are better, more responsible solutions for meeting our national energy needs . I support tax credits and other incentives for the development of clean, renewable energy sources, such as wind, solar, hydrogen, and bio-fuels . These energy sources emit fewer greenhouse gases and are much less invasive to our natural environment than oil and gas development.

I have also long sup ported protections for Maryland 's state parks and open spaces . For example, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 's State Wildlife Grants protect wildlife habitats in Maryland . The Land and Water Conservation Fund provide s matching federal funds to states and local governments, including Maryland, for public recreation areas and facilities. And t he North American Wetlands Conservation Act funds conservation projects that protect wetland habitats in Maryland and around the country . I have fought hard in this and p revious Congresses to increase fundin g for these and other important conservation programs, and you can be assured that I will continue to do so .

Again, thank you for contacting me about oil and gas drilling on our nation's public lands. Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future about this or any other matter of concern.

Reason #95, why I love San Francisco: all the great shows. Some really great bands roll through here. Sometimes I'm lucky enough to get tickets, sometimes I'm not as lucky if I don't hear about the concert in time.
I almost didn't get tickets to Bloc Party at the Fillmore in July. I was about to cry. And we were right there at 10am on Sunday, ready to buy tickets online. For some reason, Grant's credit card didn't go through on the website for Ticketmaster. So then I used my credit card, but we couldn't buy 2 tickets. WTF??? I was thinking they were sold out, but already??? In 10 minutes Bloc Party is sold out??!!??
I kept refreshing the page, but no luck. Finally I thought, why don't we just buy a single ticket at time. Score! Luckily that worked!!! I know, kind of bratty that I would throw a tantrum and cry if I didn't get those tickets.
BUT - Bloc Party is like my favorite band. And even though I've seen them like 3 times in concert, I never get sick of seeing them again. I'm so glad I can just walk to the Fillmore - it's pretty close to my apartment, score!! And it's a MUCH smaller venue than where I've seen them (Shoreline). 3 Bloc Party exclamation point exclamation point.

In The Beginning

In the land of Salisbarrie was a wicked queen, Barrie Parsons Tilghman. The only way to stay in her good graces was to do her bidding or SHE WOULD GET EVEN otherwise it was off with your head (Stu Leer, Coulbourne Dykes, Bob Eaton etc, etc, etc). The list of those beheaded during her 10 year reign of terror continued to grow until one day along comes this man from the Bronx. Being a come here she had no fear of him, after all this is her turf, she and she alone rules the land. Anyone familiar with her knows you dont buck up against her or shed run you out of business, your home, your marriage ultimately out of the state, ala Brenda Cox. Now, this fellow from the Bronx didnt know the Queen for what she is or that she will go to whatever lengths necessary to rid herself of anyone that becomes a nuisance. The man from the Bronx is befriended by a local attorney that likes to blog in his pass time. His attorney friend blogs about the injustices within Barrieland, exposes the Queen and her minions for what they are and what they do within her Queendom. The man from the Bronx being a typical New Yorker, doesnt take kindly to lies or innuendo and relays this via emails to the Queen of Salisbarrie. Ultimately, after he learns the Queen would rather climb a 100 foot pine tree to tell a lie than stand on the ground and tell the truth, the man from the Bronx says what any red blooded New Yorker does, he calls a spade a spade. Actually, he told her she was a waste of good sperm. The Queen couldnt take this lying down or keep it to herself. What does she do? The Queen calls a press conference, with all of the media venues available to her, in the land of Barrie. Queen aka Mayor Barrie Parsons Tilghman, in her deluded mind, visualizing herself as the all powerful Queen of Salisbarrie, takes the stage, in front of TV cameras, whining about those mean spirited blogs. After all, who would have known that anyone told her she was a waste of good sperm or of the blogs had she not publicized it on local television? I dont know if it was Queen Barrie or the medias attempt to oblige the Queen, but naming the blogs that were in the forefront at the time Justice for All?, owned by local attorney, Charles Jannace and Duvafiles owned by retired attorney Bill Duvall was the dumbest thing she could do. A handful of peasants in the land of Barrie knew of these blogs and very few knew the man from the Bronx, UNTIL THEN. Queen Barrie, in her effort to control Joe Albero, formerly known as the man from the Bronx, CREATED Joe Albero, The Blogger and present day owner of Sbynews.com.

In The Middle

Did any of us know who Joe Albero was before Queen Barrie made her announcement on television about those mean spirited blogs? Did anyone know his opinion on anything before Charles Jannace published them on his blog Justice For All?? Did anyone really care who or what the opinion of Joe Albero was? He was one man, that didnt even own a blog, voicing his opinion on the blog of another as many have done before and after the day Queen Barrie announced existence of these blogs The problem with Joe Albero is, he is ungrateful. He doesnt bow down to his creator, the all powerful beast of Salisbarrie so, she has to teach him a lesson. More proof Joe Albero, The Blogger is a typical New Yorker, he doesnt back down when threatened. Queen Barrie tells him to stop being mean to her or shell sue him for defamation. Did Joe Albero listen to her? NO! He continued to speak the truth and provide visual and audio aids for all of those reading his blog. His creator, the Queen, had to follow through with her threats and filed a civil suit against him. She knew she couldnt do this alone being a public official under the political microscope so she allegedly encouraged her chief of police to do the same. Being the subservient being that he is, the Chief of Police, in the land of Barrie does exactly as he is told to do, he files a civil suit. Not only does he file suit he uses the same law firm Queen Barrie retains. They file their bogus suits for a measly $9,999.00. Why would anyone sue anyone, with as many assets as the man from the Bronx is known to have, for a mere $9,999.00? That wont even cover the attorney fees for the law firm they retained. Ill tell you why. It keeps them out of circuit court and strips away the right of Joe Albero, man from the Bronx, to a trial by jury. Queen Barrie and her Chief of Police know they cannot be confronted in a court of law judged by their peers, the Queen might have an emotional breakdown having 12 people find against her on public record. During discovery the attorneys for the Queen and her loyal subject Chiefy, demand the sources of information from Joe Albero, man from the Bronx. If the truth ever comes out, finding out who Joe was getting his information from was the whole purpose of filing the civil suit. Joe in his best Bronx dialect tells them straight out, "faggedaboudit, youse aint gettin' nuttin' offa me." After all, there is that pesky right afforded him called the FIRST AMENDMENT. There is also this tiny flaw in Joe's character, he gave his word he'd never reveal his sources and he kept his word. Imagine that. Time goes by and they get nuttin from Joe Albero. Finally, his court date is upon him, with the Chief of Police. According to the Tilghman Times in Salisbarrie the attorney representing Alan Webster aka Chiefy calls the attorney representing Joe Albero, the night before they are to appear in court, requesting a deal before appearing in court. Whatever deal was struck, well never know, however what we do know is there was NO MONETARY SETTLEMENT. Chiefy walked away empty handed, with nothing, nada, zip, zilch. Since they didn't get the sources he and his Queen so desparately desired everyone still has a job. Except the meter man which has nothing to do with this. Now we wait for Queen Barrie to meet Joe Albero, man from the Bronx, in court. That date has yet to be set, as far as I know.

Lets back up a bit and see just how devious the Queen of Salisbarrie thinks she is. They cant shut the man up that she created by publicizing his mean spirit. She cant shut him up by threatening and filing civil suits against him. Next step bring in the dogs. It has been alleged and rumored all over the community that local attorneys brought a recent real estate transaction to the Queens attention. The Queen thinks she has finally found a way to shut this man up and shut him down. She allegedly dispatches her chief of police off to the comptrollers office with this new found evidence. Phone calls are made locally to the state office of the comptroller. Day trips to Annapolis are on the unofficial agenda. The Queen just knows she has finally toppled the man from the Bronx. Papers are filed, grand jury is convened, indictment is handed down, and an arrest is made. Queen Barrie is so distracted waiting for the news of Joe's arrest she can't focus on the game of the day. Surely this will shut him up. WRONG. Joe Albero, man from the Bronx, hides from nothing. As soon as his beautiful bride posts bail, brings him home, he blogs about the situation, exposing it for what it really isVINDICTIVENESS on the part of the Queen and her subservient minions. Those that have had their toes stepped on by Joe Albero wait in great anticipation of September 16, knowing this is the end of Sbynews.com and Joe Albero. What they didnt know, even though they were being led around by the ring in their nose, was their lawyer buddies were WRONG.

In The End

To quote the Tilghman Times, Dove said, the Maryland State Comptrollers Office originally pursued the case against Albero because he is obligated to pay taxes as a Delaware resident buying property in Maryland. But what was overlooked is that since Albero reinvested that land in Maryland three weeks after purchase, HE WAS ENTITLED TO A TAX DEFERMENT and OWED NO MONEY. The Comptrollers Office then became less interested. In other words, the special prosecutor for the State of Maryland said the Tax Free Exchange aka 1031 that Joe filed was PERFECTLY LEGAL. So now that it is on record he evaded no taxes what is left? The perjury charge is all they have. Knowing this entire waste of taxpayer time and money was politically motivated, they can't just throw this out of court, they had to do something so the prosecutor offers an Alford Plea, Judge Kathleen Becksted gives Joe a PBJ, court costs and fine. Judge Beckstead also let it be known in her 8 years on the bench this is the third, thats right, 3rd, PBJ she has handed down.

The way I see it, Joe Albero is guilty of one thing in this charade. He is guilty of trusting Don Richardson. I could see if Joe didnt know Don Richardson or have any previous professional dealings with him. This is not the case. Don Richardson has handled other real estate transactions for Joe in the past. Joe is no stranger to him nor is his address. On one page of the documents, it states Joe's address as Maryland, a page or two after that his address is listed as Delmar, Delaware. Joe goes to settlement, is handed paperwork by an attorney he knows, trusts and has retained in the past. Attorney asks Joe to sign here, here, here and anywhere else his signature was required. Why not? Id do it, wouldn't you? After all, this same attorney has handled real estate transactions for him before, whats not to trust? If Joe has learned nothing else from this I hope he has learned to TRUST NO ONE.

Now that everyone knows the Queen of Salisbarrie has once again, allegedly wasted the time and resources of yet another law enforcement agency (remember her lies to the FBI sending them to the home of Bill Duvall?) maybe she will reflect on all of her failures of the past 10 years and pack her bags and leave office quietly. Not going to happen but hey, I can fantasize, can't I? She might also do well to concern herself with being investigated by various departments within the government. Rumor has it the FBI has a great interest in her dealings or misdealings. All of the lies she can tell, all of the truths she can twist, can not win in a court of law, no matter how many Bibles she holds in her lap. EVERYBODY,throughout the state, judges included, are well aware of her game. Once again, many taxpayer dollars are misused in an effort to exact revenge against anyone that would dare to expose the truths of the Tilghman administration.

Congratulations Joe and THANK YOU and your family, for all you do, have done and endure.

Greenbackville, VA has seen it highs and lows. Captains' Cove Golf Yacht Club was designed by the same person who laid out Ocean Pines and the two communties are virtually identical when it comes to the size of lots, roads, easements, canals and more.
With over 4,400 lots on plats; marketing companies, real estate developers and local real estate agents have worked this piece of land on the Chincoteague Bay for decades.
Half of the project never had sewer and water brought to it and was marketed in the early days as the 'unbuildable' sections where salesmen told lies to potential buyers that one day it would be just like 'Ocean Pines' and they would be able to build on those lots.

In the meantime they would sell them as 'Membership' lots so that one could use the pool, golf course and marina. During the post "First Charter" period in the 1980's 90's these 'unbuildable' lots never sold for much more than $500 after the original marketing company sold out the entire development in the 70's, using the same "high pressure" sales tactics that sold out Ocean Pines.
Building was slow from the beginning until the 90's with maybe 200+ houses built there with most being on the water or golf course. There were a few bursts of activity when several groups would come in and buy up lots for resale, but the original developer maintained control.

Then comes the real estate bubble from 2000 to 2005; and former Ocean City realtors of the Moore, Warfield Glick fame saw the Cove as an opportunity they couldn't go wrong on.
The "new Captain's Cove" development group purchased all of the property owned by the original developer Cal Burns and the property held by the home owners association, along with the developer rights. They hired architects to design a new club house, indoor pool, marina building. They put in new gates to the community, and began the process of petitioning the county to bring water and sewer to the unbuildable lots. The formerly 'unbuildable' sections were labeled by realtors as 'future development' lots, even though there was no legal basis for that label.

They had not met Atlantic's Mr. Wolf, nor the Fleming family with deep roots in Accomack County going back hundreds of years. These folks put together a group of residents that contested each and every method that the developers proposed to develop the 2,200 + 'unbuildable' lots. Their argument and one that is valid is that if all of those lots are developed the crap will have no where to go. The Chincoteague Bay does not empty as efficiently as it fills thus often leaving stale water in the bay for days on end. (hence the reason Chincoteague oysters have their unique flavor)

The Bay is easily polluted and it's health is questionable without the development dumping millions of gallons of sewage into its waterways.
Many options were explored and one was even to pump all of the sewage into trucks with trucks taking it to local farms and spraying it on the crops grown therein. This wasn't such a bad idea in theory, but then cost of diesel went through the roof and the reality of how many trips and to how many farms would have to be made, turned out to be not such a great idea. Additionally, crops meant for human consumption aren't allowed to be sprayed with human waste. The surrounding landowners refused to sell the 'new developers' the rights to spray crap on their land.

All the while this battle was waging between the developer and the citizens in and around the area the marketing team for the developers were selling this project to people who wanted the Ocean City area but were priced out of the market. Suddenly, papers advertising OC realtors were pushing Cove lots and homes. Prices for 'buildable' interior lots that were $5,000 in the 90's jumped to $50,000.00 or more. Golf course lots that were $8,000 to $10,000 during the 90's spiked up to over $100,000.00 while being pitched as a good investment. Canal bayfront lots that were once a hard sell at $25,000.00 became a 'great investment' at $250,000.00 with greed and huge profits being paid to the agents and 'early investors' of what was once considered the white elephant of Accomack County.

Then came the 'marketing' of 2,200 unbuildable lots with no water, power or sewer and no permits or approved plans to develop these sections. These lots jumped from $500 per lot to $30,000 and more with hollow promises of future development by greedy realtors looking for a quick flip or fat commission. 'Investors' up and down the shore thought Moore Warfield and Glick were going to get a new sewage treatment plant built and they started buying all of the unbuildable lots they could get their hands on. The $500 'membership lots' were then being touted as 'future development' and sold for $30,000.00 to $150,000.00 or more each.

Now the tides have turned, the real estate market is in murkier water than the Chincoteague Bay on a slack tide in August, and not only is nothing being sold, but the prices are dropping like a lead balloon.
Now the astute developers have left PNC Bank holding the bag on about $18,000,000 in loans as they filed for bankruptcy protection last week, with PNC demanding the outstanding $22,000,000 loans secured by real estate. That's close to $40,000.000 bucks folks, bet on being able to obtain approvals to dump crap from 2,200 homesites in the Chincoteague Bay that had not been approved for 30-years by the original developer.

The original cost to develop Captain's Cove in the1970's was under $3 million dollars and the original developer sold out in about 3-years.

Hopefully things will go back to normal and regular folks can buy a house in the low $100s once again and Captains Cove can go back to being that strange little community that you know that if placed anywhere else on the face of the earth would be successfully huge and crowded. But it is a quirky little development that just doesn't seem to fit into any of those molds that we know from the outside world, and it is probably the reason that we love it.
