Tragedy Turned Positive

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer The Calvert County branch of the NAACP held their annual luncheon on Nov. 2, featuring keynote speaker ABC2 photojournalist Pete ONeal. ONeal is the founder of childrens television show Its Kindertime, the Its Kindertime Toy Drive and history documentaries, including one about the Gwynn Oak Amusement Park. As a journalist, ONeal was often the first on scene at fires, accidents and homicides. He spoke to members of the family at the worst times of their lives. In total, he said he covered more than 1,800 homicides before one hit home his mother was found murdered in her home after a robbery. ONeal found himself questioning his faith after the loss of his mother, who was his only family growing up. The ground wasnt low enough, he said. I was lower than that. At his wife Beverlys urging, he began working toward making something good come out of the tragedy. With her help, he started a childrens television show, Its Kindertime, to show children the options they have open to them. ONeal, Beverly and their sons wrote, produced and funded the initial show, which was picked up for 13 episodes by ABC2. It went on to span several seasons. It also became the namesake of the annual toy drive ONeal hosts. Along with the successful childrens show, ONeal and Beverly teamed up to film documentaries, including one about the racial integration of Gwynn Oak Park in Baltimore during the 1950s and 1960s. During filming, they conducted more than 30 hours of interviews, ONeal said. People of all races and religions were involved in desegregating the park, and he wanted to tell their story. Even with all the achievements hes had in his life, ONeal makes it a point to recognize the people who supported him and urged the audience at the luncheon to do the same. You cant say look what Ive done without knowing youre standing on the shoulders of those before you, ONeal said.

Commissioners Grant Dominion Cove Point Tax Break

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer Amid community protests and encouragements, The Calvert County Board of County Commissioners voted at their Nov. 5 meeting to approve a Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) agreement and tax relief for the proposed Dominion Cove Point Liquefaction Project in Lusby. The terms of the PILOT agreement include a one-time payment in 2018 of $25 million before the proposed facility expansion is deemed taxable, according to a Calvert COunty press release. This is in addition to the $15.1 million the county will receive on Dominions existing equipment. Additionally, the county is guaranteed $15.1 million in annual payments on existing equipment for at least an additional five years, removing the risk of financial loss to the county on equipment depreciation. Calvert County will receive approximately $55 million total per year in tax revenue once the facility is operational. Upon completion of the five-year PILOT, Dominion Cove Point will receive 42 percent relief on real and personal property taxes for nine years. At the end of the tax relief period, the facility becomes taxable at 100 percent of its value. This investment by the county will help pave the way for the facility expansion, which is valued at $3.4 billion to $3.8 billion and expected to have a significant economic impact on the county through job creation and tax payments. Calvert County is authorized under Maryland law to extend property tax relief to new or expanding businesses in the countys identified economic development target market sectors that employ at least 25 new additional full-time employees and acquire at least $2.5 million in land, improvements to the land, or equipment in the county. Local union leaders and employees supported the proposal, saying the expansion will offer more than 3,000 local jobs to contractors for two or three years, allowing them to stay close to home instead of chasing work. Other community members asked the Board of County Commissioners to slow down, believing if they make it too easy for Dominion Cove Point the county will loose all leverage against them if something goes wrong in the future. Others voice concern about the impact the project will have on the health and safety of the environment and individuals living near the facility, wanting to see impact studies from Dominion Cove Point before the commissioners sign off on the project.

COUNTY NEWS Former Assistant Sheriff Running for Commissioner Seat

The Calvert Gazette
By Sarah Miller Staff Writer After a lifelong career in law enforcement, the last 15 years of which were spent in service to Calvert County, first in the states attorneys office then in the sheriffs office, former assistant sheriff Tom Hejl is not ready for a quiet, lazy retirement. He decided to throw his hat into the county commissioners race, running as a republican for one of the two at-large seats. Hejl believes he has something to offer the board and the county. He is experienced with the county budget build process. Property values have been on the decline since the economic downturn in 2008, meaning the county has had to make due with less money every year. He would encourage the board to be more transparent with the budget build in addition to finding ways to increase revenue. One idea Hejl has is to enforce ordinances currently being overlooked. He recommends the county to impose a fee for providing additional security for events such as the Tiki Bar opening weekend and the Blessing of the Bikes. Sheriffs office employees already provide additional security for those events. The county pays for the officers but private business owners reap the benefits, Hejl said. In addition to finding new ways to garner income, Hejl wants to see the county find ways to entice small business owners and entrepreneurs to take up residence in local shopping centers. There are way too many vacant storefronts, Hejl said. Calvert has a significant traffic problem, Hejl said. The county needs to lobby not only the state but the federal government to find solutions for traffic issues with the Thomas Johnson Bridge and Route 2/4. A number of federal employees live in Calvert, Hejl said, and the federal government cannot ignore the need for additional infrastructure. There is a need for more affordable housing, especially for young professionals, Hejl said. He would recommend offering incentives to builders to offer affordable housing for individuals living on single incomes. Hejl intends to advocate for steps and COLAs for county employees. County employees are the countys asset, Hejl said. He has heard horror stories about Community Planning and Building and would work to streamline the process members of the community go through to get permits and help make the process easier to navigate. sarahmiller@countytimes.net

Kullen Launches Campaign for House of Delegates Seat

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer Sue Kullen (D) formally announced her intention to run for a seat in the Maryland House of Delegates during a party at Governors Run in Port Republic on Sunday. Kullen was the first female delegate from Calvert County, according to Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller (D-27). He went on to predict she would be the next. With the governors help, were going to make it happen, he said. Kullen seeks to oust incumbent Mark Fisher (R-27B) and win the seat as delegate for district 27C, formed during the 2012 legislative session. Kullen said her defeat in the 2010 election nearly convinced her to step away from politics. I have never been involved in anything where integrity and hard work didnt pay off, she said, adding that, at the end of the day she loved democracy and wanted to represent Calvert County in Annapolis. Nov. 3 marked exactly one year until the 2014 election, Kullen said. In the next year, she and campaign supporters will go door-to-door appear at political

and community events, all with the intention to talk to the citizens of Calvert County and find out what they need from their representative. Her intention is to continue fighting for legislation that matters and makes a difference, Kullen said. During her original tenure in the House of Delegates, she fought for bills they may not receive the spotlight, such as womens health bill that was heard on the same day as a gun bill. The weapon based legislation got more attention, Kullen said, but other bills were just as important and impacted just as many people. I have a wild collection of people supporting me, Kullen said, noting that
at her campaign kickoff alone there were doctors, lawyers, artists, scientists, fire fighters and military veterans. She made sure to thank her husband, local government employee Steve Kullen, for his continuous support. I will ask Steve to do more than anyone should do for their spouse, she said, adding that during past campaigns he would stay up with her until 3 or 4 a.m. then turn around and leave for work at 6 a.m. For more information about candidates running in the 2014 election, visit elections.state.md.us/. sarahmiller@countytimes.net

COUNTY NEWS LSMs Spat Pac Invites You to Help Leave a Legacy of Cleaner Water
The Calvert Gazette
A group of LSM 2014 class members has decided to focus on making a direct impact on local water quality by undertaking an oyster reef installation in the St. Marys River. Filter-feeding oysters aid in the clean-up of our local watershed and contribute to a healthier Chesapeake Bay. Classmates Ray Dodson, Bob Lewis, Beverly Brown, Holly Meyer, Joe Klausner, Rebecca Bridgett, Jeff Lehnertz, Michelle Ruble, MaryAnne Bowman and Carrie Kelly have made replenishing the oyster population their Legacy Project, with a goal of ensuring future generations will be able to enjoy the beautiful waterways which surround the Southern Maryland region. Bob Lewis, Executive Director of the St. Marys River Watershed Association, knows a thing or two about building oyster reefs and has worked with numerous groups to create a three-dimensional habitat in the rivers sanctuary. The LSM classmates have dubbed themselves The Spat Pac and have set the pace committing their own financial support and volunteer hours to create an oyster reef, complete with spat, or infant oysters, on Saturday, Nov. 16. Fellow classmates have already jumped on board to help and the group hopes LSM alumni and community members will show support of their eco-conscious efforts. They ask for a $30 contribution and welcome volunteers to meet them on the waterfront at St. Marys College of Maryland to be part of something lasting and beneficial for our community. Volunteers age 11 and up should wear work clothes and footwear which covers the feet. The Watershed Association will provide life jackets, gloves and food. Heavy-duty wheelbarrows are needed and participants will meet at Barry Friedmans, 47171 Snow Hill Manor Road at 9 a.m. For more information on oyster reefs and their vital role in the health of the watershed or to make a tax-deductible donation via PayPal, visit www.smrwa.org. Foul weather date is Sunday, Nov. 17. Please RSVP and send any inquiries to leadershipsomd@gmail.com. We hope youll be part of revitalizing the mighty oyster in the St. Marys River with us.

STEP 4
HOW DOES A TANKLESS SPACE SAVING CALCULATION WORK?

The obvious difference between a tank and a tankless is its size. Not only will you gain significant space, but youll also get endless hot water with a tankless. Noritz tankless water heaters last longer than traditional tank water heaters and are backed up with a 12-year warranty.
The Noritz tankless water heater provides an endless stream of hot water. When the tap is turned off, the unit shuts off.
STEP 5
With a tankless, you wont be using hot water that is stored in a tank that can accumulate scale and rust over time. Noritz units allow you to set the temperature you want.
A traditional tank-type water heater takes up to 13 ft2 of space. If 1 ft2 is worth $200, thats $2,600 (13 ft2 x $200) worth of space you could be saving at Noritz.

Parents, Students, Teachers Working Together

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer The Northern High School Parent Teacher Student Organization (PTSO) has banded together to offer grants for school clubs and scholarships for graduating seniors. Every year, the PTSO offers at least one $500 scholarship and additional $250 scholarships as possible, according to PTSO member Margaret Dunlap. The scholarships are meant to help students who may not be at the top of the scale academically but who serve their community as volunteers. Students are asked to submit essays detailing their community involvement, which are read and ranked by parents and teachers. All personal information, such as names, are omitted from the entries during judging, Dunlap said. Scholarships are awarded in May and sent to the education institution of the students choice. Scholarships are advertised through the guidance office and, as of last year, Southern Maryland CANs combined scholarship application. To be considered for a scholarship, the student applying and at least one parent or guardian must be a member of the PTSO. Clubs and student organizations and the school can apply for small grants from the PTSO. Past grants have helped purchase timers for the chess team and new books in the library, Dunlap said. PTSO funds grants and scholarships through membership dues and fundraisers, such as the ongoing spirit sale and hoodie sales. sarahmiller@countytimes.net
Kids Just Want to Have Fun at Calvert Libraries

By Sarah Miller Staff Writer Tales tall and small were the subject of the latest Kids Just Want to Have Fun program at the Prince Frederick branch of Calvert County Libraries. The program is offered from September to May, according to Children Services Director Beverly Izzi. The Prince Frederick and Twin Beaches libraries offer free fun for kids every month through the Kids Just Want to Have Fun program. Topics cover spaghetti, fairy tales and everything in between, according to childrens librarian Barb Thorp. In addition to reading a story, Thorp designs crafts, activities and snacks related to the story. During the latest program at the Prince Frederick library on Nov. 4, Thorp read one-minute fairy tales. Children acted out the super short versions of Little Red Riding Hood, The Doll in the Grass and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves with masks they designed and colored. After their short pantomimes, Thorp showed participants how to make a faeraium, an aquarium for a fairie, out of a glass jar, fake moss, jewels and pictures of fairies. The number of children changes every month, Izzi said, but they can handle a maximum of 25 children. I appreciate the fact they have this for kids, Ellen Pape, who brings her son, Josiah, to the program a the Prince Frederick Library every month. Ive never seen a program so dedicated to the children, said Kay Weaver, who has brought her grandchildren, Allura and Dakota Kissinger, to Kids Just Want to Have Fun every month for the past three years. The program is offered for children in kindergarten through third grade. Allura will be too old to participate next year, but Weaver said they will find her another program to participate in at the library. There are things for children of all ages to do, Weaver said, adding the fact that programs are free is a plus for parents who have several children. Weaver said the librarians are a large part of what makes the program successful, calling Thorp a jem and praising her for the animated way she tells stories, complete with voices. Dakota and Allura have begun imitating this when they read out loud to her, Weaver said. Kids Just Want to Have Fun programs are the second Monday of every month from 6:30 to 7:30 and the second Thursday of every month from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the Prince Frederick Branch and the third Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 7:30 at the Twin Beaches branch.The next program will be at 2:30 p.m. on Nov. 7 in the Prince Frederick branch and Nov. 21 at the Twin Beaches Branch at 6:30 p.m. The program will take a break in December, Izzi said, but they will begin again Barb Thorp reads to students. in January.

Spotlight On
Students Take a Stand Against Bullying

Every school in Calvert County sent an envoy of students to the second annual Make the Difference Bullying Prevention Summit at the College of Southern Maryland on Nov. 1. The schools sent students who show leadership qualities, said Community Resource and School Safety Specialist Larry Titus. The day-long summit involved eight breakout sessions covering bullying in the digital age, starting school based anti-bullying programs and clubs and how to report bullying, harassment and intimidation. Students from each school attended different sessions and reported back to their groups to discuss action plans for addressing and preventing bullying at their schools.
A Gift of Words
By Sarah Miller Staff Writer I could use this, said Windy Hill Elementary School third grader Sydney Cooksey while examining a page detailing parts of speech in her new dictionary. The dictionary was a gift from the Prince Frederick Rotary Club. During the coming week, Rotarians will pass out more than 1,200 dictionaries to third grade students across the county. The Rotary Club is a service organization, Rotarian Gene Karol said to third grade students at Windy Hill Elementary School, the first stop on the Rotary Clubs annual tour of Calvert Countys schools. Our job is to help people, Karol said, explaining that the club offers scholarships, offers support to exchange students and raises money to fight polio. Students were pleased to receive dictionaries. Itll be fun to explore the dictionary, said Windy Hill third grader Katelyn Holland. sarahmiller@countytimes.net

Advocate, Educate and Connect

Chamber of Commerce Focuses on All Aspects of Business
By Sarah Miller Staff Writer 2013 was a year of growth and change for the Calvert County Chamber of Commerce and Chamber President and CEO Carolyn Hart. Though her first day at work was Oct. 15, 2012, the Nov. 18, 2013 Chamber of Commerce Awards Banquet will bring Hart full circle. It was the first event she attended after taking her position with the Chamber of Commerce, she said. When Hart began working for the chamber, she took time to speak with every member, polling them to determine what changes they believed the organization needed to make and using their opinions as the foundation for her work in the past year. The mission of the Chamber of Commerce can be summed up in three words, Hart said advocate, educate and connect. Each of those words is a focus area for the chamber and everything they do connects to one of those areas. One of the first changes made after Hart began working with the chamber was eliminating the entry fee to the monthly Business After Hours networking for chamber members, a change the members suggested and supported. Entry is $10 for non-members. One of the main reasons businesses join the Chamber of Commerce is for networking opportunities, Hart said, including Women to Women and Business After Hours. Also new in 2013 were general membership meetings. The meetingss are not held on a regular schedule. Instead, they are held to address pressing issues that affect business owners. The first general membership meeting was about the debate revolving around digital signs and whether they should be allowed in Calvert County. Another was held about the charrette process used in the Prince Frederick Master Plan update. The charrette is complete, but the update is still under development. Meeting topics planned for 2014 involve the Dominion Cove Point expansion and its business opportunities, including a breakdown of what will be union-only opportunities and what will be open to a larger contractor base, and the Affordable Health Care Act and its impact on business owners and their employees. The general membership meetings werent designed to be networking opportunities, Hart joked, but when so many business owners gather in one place they always find a few minutes to talk. The chamber is a non-partisan organization, Hart said, and meetings are designed only to inform business owners. In addition to the general membership meetings, 2013 was the first year the chamber formed a government affairs committee. The group was charged with tracking bills that came out of Annapolis during the legislative session that would during the year. Shes taken the bull by the horns, he said, adding her drive to promote the chamber and member businesses has allowed the Board of Directors to step back and refocus on the three focus areas. The Chamber of Commerce offers advice and networking opportunities to business owners in Calvert County, Applegate said. Members can support each other, and they often benefit from the connections made through the Chamber of Commerce. The community as a whole benefits forum having a strong Chamber of Commerce, Applegate said. It can attract new businesses to the area, which improves the countys tax base. A large variety of businesses improves the quality of life in the county, he said. Following celebrations, pictures and announcements are posted on the Chamber of Commerce website and Facebook page. The Chamber of Commerce welcomed a new office manager on Nov. 4. Elyse Coumans is replacing Cathy Wehrle. Wherle will be missed, Hart said. She was instrumental in helping launch the new Chamber of Commerce website and helping launch electronic invoicing. The chamber began accepting electronic payments for the first time in early 2013, which was a welcome change, Hart said. Coumans comes with an expertise in social media and marketing and Hart is looking forward to working with her to continue growing and promoting the Chamber of Commerce and member businesses. In the past year, the Chamber of Commerce has promoted events for member organizations by posting them to Facebook and the chambers website. The chamber has hosted a Business to Business education series designed to promote experts and chamber members and their business. Each installation in the series highlights a different member, Hart said. A change made in 2012 and kept this year was combining the annual Business Expo with the Annual Awards Dinner. Both events will be on Nov. 13 at the Holiday Inn in Solomons from 5 to 9 p.m. Reservations are required. Awards presented during the evening will include the Spirit of Small Business, Chamber Member of the Year and recognitions for members who have been in the chamber 25, 50 and 75 years. The next Women to Women meetings will be at 8:30 a.m. at Nov. 7 at the Hilton Garden Inn in Solomons and Dec. 11 at 12 p.m. at Spring Hill Suites in Prince Frederick. The next Business After Hours meeting will be on Dec. 12 at 5:30 p.m. at the College of Southern Maryland, Prince Frederick Campus.

affect local business owners and getting information to chamber members. The Board of Directors sets the direction of the Chamber, Hart said. They give her direction and she works to fulfill their vision. Its one thing to have an idea and another to execute it, said Chamber of Commerce member Wayne Shoemaker. Carolyn is good as executing ideas. The relationship between the Calvert Chamber of Commerce and county government is one of the strongest Hart has seen in her experience. Board of Directors President Andrew Applegate, president and executive director of Asbury Solomons, agreed. He said local government and the Chamber of Commerce Members of local government have had differences of opinion but they work together to benefit Calvert County. Theres enough antagonism in Washington, he said. We dont need to do that in Calvert County. Local government officials and chamber representatives can always be found together at ribbon cutting and anniversary celebrations.
Shoemaker, a State Farm agent, has been helping businesses plan their ribbon cuttings and anniversary events for eight years. He gives them resources and media contacts in addition to advice on who to invite and what to have on hand during the event, such as refreshments. Most new business owners dont know how to organize a formal ribbon cutting, Hart said, and praised Shoemaker for his efforts. As a small business owner, I believe every business deserves a celebration, Hart said. She has personal experience with the trials involved in simply opening a business she and her Husband, Mike Hart, own Patuxent Wine and Spirits in Lusby. The Harts are among the 70 percent of Chamber of Commerce members who are small business owners. Shoemaker is one of several committee chairmen in the Chamber of Commerce. Not all committee leaders are members of the Board of Directors, but they do all report to the board during regular meetings, according to Applegate. Applegate praised Hart for her work

While Calvert Residents Slept...

While Calvert residents slept, the Commissioners across the bridge took the first step to total control. One night, the police scanners simply went quiet. Dead air. It was to protect citizen privacy, they said. While the local newspaper dutifully reported on every detail of the negotiations to bring a much-needed Filenes Basement to the local shopping plaza, watchful eyes were scanning license plate numbers into a database. Thats the third time EEF-ZDX has taken I-95 to Florida in two months. According to our records, the owner is a pediatrician. See why you can nose out about our baby doc. While Calverts young people were cramming for their finals, Homeland Security was on a bullet-buying jag one billion flesh-tearing rounds of ammunition, not for use against the Viet Cong or Al Qaeda, but its own citizens. While the class of 2013 partied late into the early morning hours, the man on the 6:00 clock news said their president had sealed the White House visitor logs to media inspection. Yawn. Whats on American Movie Classics, hon? While county officials debated a smoking ban in parks, heavily armed state police and federal agents in full body amour swooped down on an award-winning Washington Times writers home to ransack it, and seize her notes. She had written a story critical of the administration. She was now an enemy of the state. Shoot one, scare a thousand. While the local media weighed the pros and cons of bringing a new skating rink to the county, the police were militarizing across the country, hitting the streets in mineresistant-armored vehicles. They were coming for the enemies of the state. The thinkers. The people who write for the newspapers. The troublemakers. In Colorado, they raided a home and seized evidence without a search warrant. It was a terrorism case. They dont need no stinkin warrant in terrorism cases. As America grieved for the victims of the Boston bomb attack, police went door-to-door, searching for suspects without a warrant. They shoved guns in the homeowners face, and then asked his permission to enter. They can do that now. The enemies of the state, like that Times reporter, can run, but they cant hide. Big Brother has facial-recognition software and biometric identifiers on their driving permits that allow them to track them to the far corners of the earth. Shell never make it past the roadblocks. While the administration did its best to restrict guns from the hands of private citizens, high-tech peeping Toms were monitoring private phone conversations in faraway lands, violating the wiretapping laws of those countries. And, throughout it all, the people of Calvert slept soundly in their beds. Edward C. Davenport Drum Point, Md.
Mrs. Kullens Views of the World Arent Consistent with the Values of Calvert
I read in the Recorder that former Delegate Kullen has announced her candidacy to take back her seat in Calvert County. As a small business owner, I cant imagine a worse outcome than to have Mrs. Kullen back in office to pursue her liberal agenda. In the article, she states two things I feel are important to note. She states that the environment is her primary concern and that her colleagues didnt appreciate her silence on being criticized for her public record. I can understand why they wouldnt appreciate it when we take a look at one of the major bills she wanted to inflict upon Calvert County residents and its businesses. Take HB 1350 of 2007, aka Kullens version of a rain tax. Among other things, it would impose a $1,000.00 per square foot impact fee on non-tidal disturbances. Ill put this in practical terms: A new homeowner requires a small gravel driveway, 12 wide by 25 long (or 300 square ft) that crosses a non-tidal wetland. Under Mrs. Kullens bill, the tax would be $300,000.00! This is outright theft of property rights! In another example, a longtime homeowner in St. Leonard intends to build a 12 x 20 shed. This property only has one logical location in non-tidal wetlands. Consequently, the tax on the shed would be $240,000.00! As a practical matter, only the very rich could afford to build a new home or home improvement in Calvert County. As a small business owner, wife and mother in Calvert County, this bill would cause further harm to Marylands anti-business reputation. The impact of this bill doesnt just end with a foreclosure sign. The bill harms many other businesses such as farmers, builders, electricians, plumbers, landscapers, engineers and hardware stores. Mrs. Kullens views of the world are not consistent with the values of Calvert County. And when you scratch the surface of her intentions, one has to wonder who is really being served here, the residents of Calvert County or liberals like Mrs. Kullen who intend to control more and more of our life, property and tax dollars. While she may reside in Calvert, HB 1350 should be a reminder to all that Mrs. Kullen votes with Montgomery County! Amy Dent St Leonard, Md.

Welcome to Leonardtown PechaKucha

By Kimberly Alston Contributing Writer The Friends of Leonardtown Theatre will put on their, first-ever PechaKucha Leonardtown on Saturday, Nov. 9, starting at 8 p.m. PechaKucha began in Tokyo in the early 2000s as a way for artists to gain feedback on the projects they were working on. The challenge for artists is that they have six minutes and 40 seconds to present 20 pieces of their artwork, about 20 seconds per image. For the Friends of Leonardtown event, the same challenge will be held for artists; however, there will also be sessions of intermission for artists to mingle with the public to discuss their work in more detail. The Friends of Leonardtown brought PechaKucha to southern Maryland after a resident of St. Marys County mentioned that they had seen a PechaKucha performance in Maine a year or so be fore. The theme of this years event is Putting the Social Back into Social Media. In their presentation, each artist also had to tie in the theme of sharing their passions and experiences in the way they ap proach life. The Friends of Leonardtown hope that PechaKucha will serve as a way to bring more live performances to Leonardtown. PechaKucha Leonardtown will take place on Saturday, Nov. 9 in the blue building of St. Peters Chapel, part of the Dorsey Law Building, 22835 Washington Street, in Leonardtown. Doors will open at 7 p.m. and the first session begins at 8 p.m. there is a $5 admission fee. There will be a cash bar, and refreshments will be available as well.

Newsmakers
By Kimberly Alston Contributing Writer Calling All Catholics, written by Mark Aldridge was not intended to be a book. It started out as a love letter to my wife, Aldridge said. In his personal life, Aldridge is a practising Baptist in the Christian faith, and his wife is practicing Catholicism. When they had children, the couple had to make the decision of what faith their children were to follow, until they were old enough to make the decision for themselves. Mark received a Catechism from his mother-in-law prior to his conflict, and set out to document the differences in the two faiths, in order to not have a verbal altercation behind the conflict. Halfway through my process, I said I think I have a book here Aldridge said. The purpose behind Calling All Catholics is so that the reader can make an informed decision on which faith they should practice, should they choose to do so. While there are several similarities in the two faiths, and he was sure to note then, Aldridge believes that there are pieces in Catechism that pointedly contradict the word of God, and he makes those points known.

Catholicism and Christianity

One such contradiction, according to Aldridge, is that Catholics believe that Mary, the mother of Jesus was a co-redemptress with Christ, believing that she had never sinned, while those of Christian faith believe that only Christ was perfect and that all others had sinned otherwise, God would not have sent his only son to die, Aldridge said. Aldridge also said that it was rumoured that Pope Francis was known to have said that Atheists could go to heaven, depending on their heart. Aldridge said that that contradicts what the Bible said in reference to only those that believe in Christ can be saved. The heart of the matter is truth, Aldridge said. He said that while Catholics put their faith in the tradition of the church, Christians put their faith in God alone. It comes down to whether each person individually believes in the baptism to save or in sacraments; in God and Jesus, or in saints, Aldridge said. Calling All Catholics: A Message from the Word of God is available both online and in stores. For more information, email maldridge@pohanka. com or call 301-904-3862 kimberlyalston@countytimes.net

A Beautiful Thing Called Sleep

By Kimberly Alston Contributing Writer After the death of his nephew, both Jonathan Nordstrom and his daughter had difficulties in trying to sleep. In times when sleep did come to him, Nordstrom began having a series of dreams in which he felt sleep was depicted in positive images. He got the idea to make a book with bright images to help kids fall asleep as a way to help both himself and his daughter. Sometimes Sleep was a product of those sleepless nights. In the span of two years, Nordstrom created first 26 illustrations and then poetry, meant to depict sleep as lovely things such as grandmothers, waterfalls, trains and, with the help of his daughter, even music. While the book was finished after his daughter was older and more accepting of certain situations, The book helped us talk, Nordstrom said. The book is written in no particular order, as each page is its own entity. Nordstrom has realized writing is his passion. I definitely like making children laugh, he said. Nordstrom is also in the process of creating his second book, a story book, rather than a collection of poetry. A fire fighter by trade, Nordstrom said that he loves the story creating process, perhaps a bit more. I realized that I can combine my art and hang out with my kids, he said, adding that while writing is like a second job, he hopes to make it into more of a second career. Jonathan Nordstrom will be selling copies of his book, Sometimes Sleep, at the St. Marys County Hospice Festival of Trees from Dec. 7. The book is also available on amazon.com and lulu. com. For more information, visit www. sometimessleep.com or contact Nordstrom directly at jon@sometimessleep. com kimberlyalston@countytimes.net

Growth in offshore wind generation is expected to play a major role in meeting carbon reduction targets around the world, but the impact of construction noise on marine species is yet unknown. A group of scientists from the United States and United Kingdom, including Dr. Helen Bailey from the Chesapeake Biological Laboratory in Solomons, Md., have developed a method to assess the potential impacts of offshore wind farm construction on marine mammal populations, particularly the noise made while driving piles into the seabed to install wind turbine foundations. Their work is published in the November issue of Environmental Impact Assessment Review. Pile-driving during the construction of offshore wind farms produces an incredible amount of noise, said Helen Bailey, one of a group of scientists at the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science who are studying the impacts of wind turbines on the environment. This is potentially harmful to marine species and has been of greatest concern to marine mammal species, such as protected populations

Assessing Impact of Noise From Offshore Wind Farm Construction May Help Protect Marine Mammals
of seals, dolphins and whales. Their research is based on ongoing construction in and around the North Sea, where many proposed wind farm sites are on submerged offshore sandbanks that also provide important habitats for marine mammals and seabirds. Previously attention had focused on the potential impacts to birds, but this new work is looking at how to assess the potential long-term impact of construction on protected marine mammal populations, particularly harbor seals. In the United States, this type of assessment could be applied to wind turbine construction that may impact a number of endangered species, including the North Atlantic right whale, the humpback whale, and fin whale. Our framework takes a worst case assessment of the short term impacts of noise and how these may influence longer term population change, thereby providing information that allows regulators to balance their efforts to meet both climate change targets and existing environmental legislation, said the studys lead author Paul Thompson of the University of Aberdeen. Harbor seals can be impacted by the noise in several ways. Loud construction activities can cause traumatic hearing injury or death at close range. The disturbances may lead seals to avoid the area and lose favorite feeding grounds, potentially causing greater competition in other areas. It could also have an impact on reproduction or survival rates. Changes in hearing sensitivity could make seals more vulnerable to predation, and make it more difficult to find food or to find mates. The study, Framework for assessing impacts of pile-driving noise from offshore wind farm construction on a harbour seal population is published in the November issue of Environmental Impact Assessment Review by Paul Thompson, Kate Brookes, and Line Cordes of the University of Aberdeen, Gordon Hastie of the Scottish Oceans Institute, Jeremy Nedwell and Richard Barham of Subacoustech Environmental Ltd., Helen Bailey of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science, and Nancy McLean of Natural Power Consultants.

A Different Kind of Surf and Turf

By Kimberly Alston Contributing Writer On Saturday, Nov. 9, the American Legion in Lusby is hosting their 2013 Fall Bull and Oyster Roast. The Legion began hosting the event between 30 and 40 years ago and is proud to say that they were one of the first places in Maryland to begin holding the event. For the event, the legion goes through approximately 400 pounds of beef, as well as 18 gallons of select oysters, 5 gallons of standards and 10 bushels of regular oysters. The event is open to the public, and people from all over the state of Maryland, as well as those in Washington D.C. and Virginia travel to take part in the fundraiser. The Legion donates the proceeds from the bull and oyster roast to support local veterans programs, as well as to support JROTC programs in local schools. In addition to the bull and oyster roasting, there will also be a Las Vegas Night, complete with poker, blackjack, roulette and other games. There will also be karaoke and music, as well as a raffle. The Bull and Oyster Roast will take place at the American Legion Post 274, located at 11820 HG Trueman Rd., in Lusby. It begins at 2 p.m. and runs all night. The cost for the event is $30 for legion members and $35 for guests. While the event is kid friendly, it is adult oriented. For more information, visit the legion. kimberlyalston@countytimes.net
