Car Collision Continues
By Lauren Procopio
Staff Writer
A car collision sent seven people to
the hospital last Monday.
On May 18, around 6:21 p.m., units
from the Calvert County Sheriffs
Office Patrol Bureau and Crash Reconstruction Team were dispatched
to the area of Adelina Road and Sixes
Road, a Calvert County Sheriffs Office press release confirmed.
Preliminary investigation into the
collision revealed that the operator of
a 2014 Hyundai Elantra failed to yield
to the right of way to a 2013 Nissan
Armada when accessing Sixes Road
from Adelina Road.
Officials have identified the Hyundai driver as Brenda Lynn Stahl, 52,
of Port Republic. Stahl had two other
occupants in the vehicle with her a
15-year-old male in the front right
seat and a 15 year-old male in the
back right seat. According to officials,
Stahl was transported to Baltimore
Shock Trauma Center by Maryland
State Police (MSP) Trooper 7 and is
currently listed in stable condition.
The front-seat passenger was also
transported to Baltimore Shock Trauma Center via MSP Trooper 6 and is
listed in serious, but stable condition.

SHERIFFS BLOTTER
The following information is compiled directly
from publicly released police reports.
As motorists take to the roads this Memorial Day holiday, the Sheriffs Office
is urging everyone to buckle up. Law
enforcement officials will be out in full
force, taking part in the 2015 national
Click It or Ticket seat belt enforcement
mobilization and cracking down on motorists who are not belted.
As we kick-off the busy summer
driving season, it is critical that everyone buckles up every time they go out,
day and night no excuses, said Sheriff
Mike Evans. Our deputies are prepared
to ticket anyone who is not wearing their
seat belt, including drivers that have neglected to properly buckle their children.
Click It or Ticket.
During the National Campaign wave
in mobilizing the Click It or Ticket
(CIOT) Border to Border Operation,
the Calvert County Sheriffs Office will
partner with the Maryland State Police,
St. Marys County Sheriffs Office and
the Charles County Sheriffs Office to
provide increased seat belt enforcement
at county borders. The Border to Border Operation will send a zero tolerance message to the public: Driving or
riding unbuckled will result in a ticket,
no matter which county or state.

Cornerstones,
Breaks and
Chemistry
By Ronald N. Guy Jr.
Contributing Writer
My wife wears me out for my alleged man crushes. She latches on to
many suspects - Hunter S. Thompson,
Keith Richards, Art Monk, Martin
Luther King Jr., Batman, Abe Lincoln, Sam Calagione (Mr. Dogfish
Head Brewery) and The Dude from
The Big Lebowski and produces an
avalanche of comic reliefat my expense. Admittedly, its quite a list, an
(apparently) irresistible cornucopia of
material for her needler gene.
Of course she often (and intentionally for the sake of laughter) mischaracterizes affinity for awkward infatuation. But I am guilty. I have man
crushes, like my little thing for Gary
Williams, former Maryland mens
basketball head coach and member
of the Naismith Memorial Basketball
Hall of Fame.
Williams rebuild of the Maryland
basketball program after Len Bias
death and the NCAA sanctions in the
late 1980s is legendary. Williams inherited a program in 1989 that was in
the midst of a near death experience.
13 years later, Williamss Terps won
the 2002 National Championship. His
signature now appropriately adorns
the court at Xfinity Center on the
Maryland campus.
Man crush? Oh yeah, I love me
some Gary Williams. But it was another Williams Walt Williams that
Gary often credits with much of his
success. Walt arrived at Maryland a
year before Gary and by all accounts
should have transferred. He was too
talented to languish on a bad team and
with a program banned from postseason play. But Walt stayed and became
the cornerstone player for Garys
great reclamation.
Current Maryland head coach Mark
Turgeon found himself desperately
seeking a program cornerstone last
year. In three seasons at Maryland,
Turgeon hadnt produced a NCAA
tournament team and several talented
players had transferred. The program
was flailing again and Turgeon
was on the hot seat.
Then Melo Trimble arrived and
changed everything. Trimble, a McDonalds All-American point guard
from Upper Marlboro, was sensational last season. He distributed the ball.
He scored. He calmed. He inspired.
After ripping off 28 wins, Melo and
the Turtles gave a school and its coach
their swag back.
Turgeon was fortunate to get Trimble. Gary was lucky to keep Walt.
Such is life. Getting a break is one
thing; doing something extraordinary
with it is special. Gary did (hence my
crush). Turgeon might too.
Since Marylands season ended
with a third-round NCAA Tournament loss to West Virginia, no school
has improved more than the Terps.
Turgeon, already with highly touted
Georgia Tech transfer Robert Carter
inbound for 2015-16, used Trimbles
decision to return for his sophomore
season to score Diamond Stone, a
five-star recruit, and Duke transfer
Rasheed Sulaimon. The additions
have Maryland, a program that just
made its first NCAA tournament appearance since 2010, tucked well
within the preseason top five.
What a difference a year makes.
Turgeon was Robert Zimmerman last
summer; hes Bob Dylan (yes, another
man crush) now. Turgeons no longer
fighting for his job, but the recruiting
success has created new concerns.
The Terps will sneak up on no one
next year and will face expectations
Maryland hasnt seen since Juan Dixon was playing at Cole Field House.
But those are uncontrollable, external
forces. Turgeons biggest challenge is
internal: molding this massive collection of randomly assembled talent
into a cohesive unit.
Marylands pending chemistry experience will likely include three new
starters (Stone, Sulaimon and Carter),
a handful of players with designs on
the 2016 NBA Draft and talented
incumbents vying for playing time.
Turgeon will have to compel this
fabulous collection of 18 to 21-yearolds, many stars in their own right,
to sacrifice and accept roles for the
betterment of the whole. Its a better
problem to have any manager in any
facet of life would choose excessive
talent over a talent deficiency - but
Turgeon will be tested, as a master of
basketball Xs and Os and human behavior. I wish him luck. I cant get my
kids to collaborate on modest household chores.
With Marylands recent success
and bright future, am I crushing on
Turgeon? Not yetbut if the Turtles
cut down the nets next April, suffice
to say my wife will have some new
material.

From My Backyard
to Our Bay was first
developed by the Baltimore
County Soil Conservation
District. From there, the
booklet was given to each
of the Soil Conservation
Districts in the Chesapeake
Bay watershed area for
customization. If the 17.5
million residents who live in
the watershed area of the
Chesapeake Bay read this
booklet, and took to heart
its suggestions and best
practices, the Chesapeake
Bay would see a dramatic
increase in health. Obtain
a FREE copy of the
booklet by going to the St.
Marys River Watershed
Association, smrwa.org and
downloading it. The booklet
is available at Wentworth
Nursery in Charlotte Hall;
Chicken Scratch in Park
Hall; The Greenery in
Hollywood; Good Earth
Natural Food; and the St.
Marys Soil Conservation
District in Leonardtown.
Join your local watershed
association and make a
difference for Our Bay!

Forest Stewardship
Forest land is important to the overall
health of the Chesapeake Bay. Forests
provide several layers, from the canopy
to the forest floor, that act as filters,
improve water quality, reduce sedimentation, remove nutrients, and regulate
stream flow during storms.
Marylands 2.5 million acres of forest,
most of it privately owned, cover approximately 42% of its land area. St.
Marys Countys land area is about 50%
forested, and has more than 400 miles
of shoreline. Wooded buffers along
these shorelines are critical to improving Bay health. Acre for acre, forested
lands produced the least amount of runoff and pollution. The County occupies
a forest transitional zone, where the
dominant tree species vary from oak/
hickory to tulip poplar to sweet gum/red
maple and loblolly pine.
Forests can be harvested on a sustainable basis for materials, including
structural lumber, crates, shelving
and furniture, flooring, mulch, and
pulp for paper. Forests can, in most
cases, provide these products while

This is the twenty-eighth in a series of articles that Mary Ann Scott (scottmaryann9@gmail.com) has adapted from From My Backyard to Our Bay in the hopes of increasing
awareness of the powerful booklet that could do so much to help the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries. Look for the next article in next weeks County Times!
