    One of President Biden’s New York delegates has been convicted of scamming the Syracuse school district and currently owes the state $101,000 in back income taxes and penalties, The Post has learned. James “Jimmy” Monto III — who pleaded guilty to falsifying business records while he was an employee with the Syracuse City School District — is on Biden’s list of pledged delegates in the 22nd Congressional District for his re-election campaign.

    Audits of 12 school districts has state Auditor General Timothy DeFoor believing school boards are playing a “shell game” with taxpayer funds by moving money into reserve accounts to allow them to make a case for raising property tax rates. State laws limit how much school districts can raise property taxes and sets limits on those increases but allows for exceptions to be granted in one of two ways: ask voters’ permission through a referendum or ask the state Department of Education for a referendum exception. “These 12 districts collectively raised taxes 37 times during the four years we reviewed...

    So GNC is down to 9.15 a share, it was up to 60.18 in Nov 2013. Last years high was at 34.58 in April, but has since slid into almost penny stock territory. I understand that they are having trouble from theom;ine sales and all, but they are also running a Super Bowl add to help. I guess even if the Super Bowl add helps temporarily it may be a smart move to buy at 9.15 to make a quick profit from the response they get off the add. Anyone agree? By the way you all want a tip? Try...

    If you are foolish enough to answer truthfully on an application for state assistance, do not despair. The state has thought of that, and does not discriminate against the foolish; you will likely be given multiple opportunities to lie, and you will eventually get your fair share. Always remember that it is best to consult your state and federal poverty guidelines before you subjectively determine what you can or cannot afford. The numbers do not lie, even if you have to lie to fall within them. Please allow me to repeat that: there are state and federal poverty guidelines. Allow...

    NSW is at the centre of an unprecedented attack by an international criminal gang on retailers' EFTPOS machines, fleecing $50 million. The wave of attacks on EFTPOS machines was yesterday described by NSW fraud squad head Detective Superintendent Colin Dyson as "the biggest I've seen". Fast-food, convenience and specialist clothing stores are bearing the brunt of the crime. McDonald's is among the outlets whose EFTPOS machines have been targeted. People commonly swipe both credit and debit cards through the in-store machines to pay for goods and services at these outlets.

    Americans are sick and tired of the illegal alien invasion of this country and are standing up to be counted. We're not afraid of the name-calling that inevitably follows. We're not deterred by the fact that almost no one in Washington is listening to us. We're not giving up because it seems like the system is rigged against us and in favor of the illegal invaders. The latest hero in this life-and-death struggle to save our country is John M. Morganelli, a district attorney in Pennsylvania, known for his raids on businesses employing illegals and for arresting others for identity...
