Remembering the Extraordinary Life of Dr. Rocco Martino

H

ow many people have you known who lived past the age of 90? My grandmother and both of her sisters, lifelong Marylanders, surpassed 90 years old. My grandmother, the eldest, passed away just two months shy of her 91st birthday. The middle daughter, my greataunt Doris, just celebrated her 100th birthday in June. And the baby of the family, my greataunt Ruth, is approaching her 97th birthday. I spend a lot of time marveling over the longevity of these women (and praying I inherited their good genes!). I also realize how rich their life experiences have been, and how little I know of them. I’d heard stories about their father’s general store and about the horse and wagon that picked up the three sisters to take them to elementary school. But I only recently learned that Aunt Ruth had been in love with a boy who died as a soldier in World War II, for example. Nonagenarians, the technical term for people who live past 90, have tripled in population, according to the last U.S. Census. By the year 2050, people over 90 are expected to make up 10 percent of the older population. Each one of these people who has spent nine decades on this earth has a unique set of experiences and accomplishments. Often, their achievements

can’t be fully appreciated until after the person passes away and an obituary is put forth. This week our parent company, Chesapeake Bay Media, is mourning a man whose remarkable achievements couldn’t possibly fit into an obituary. Dr. Rocco Martino, CBM’s CFO, who served as chief financial officer for the company that produces Chesapeake Bay Magazine, Bay Bulletin, and Bay Weekly, passed away Monday at 91 years old. Martino, an inventor and tech Dr. Rocco Martino industry pioneer and father of CBM CEO John Martino, died peacefully at his home in Villanova, Pa. surrounded by his family. Rocco Martino, born in Canada to Italian immigrants, earned a Ph.D. in Aeronautical Engineering from the University of Toronto and his 1956 doctoral work in heat calculations for the re-entry of space vehicles later made manned space missions possible. He contributed to major advances in computer systems and his software company XRT, Inc. automated financial, business, and medical systems for so many industries that by the mid-1990s, about three trillion dollars per day were processed through

A new issue has raised its head in the city by some claiming that Annapolitans have no access to the city’s many creeks. The issue was raised by Alderman DaJuan Gay when he and friends visited a pier on private property. As a result of Alderman Gay’s claim of limited water access, Alderman Savage is considering legislation that would require private development to provide public access to the waterfront. In fact, Annapolis has many places of access to the water that surrounds us. Streets that end at the water are public property and provide opportunities for water access. I was pleased to promote street end parks and negotiate for funds to make them happen as First Lady of Annapolis in the 1960’s. Old farms on the Eastport peninsula sold 60 plus years ago were developed into apartments and townhouses. Unlike street ends, these parcels were private property. Under the administration of Roger “Pip” Moyer, the City of Annapolis began a program of street-end parks to provide access to our water.

XRT’s systems. Then, Dr. Martino developed a precursor to the smartphone, securing patents a full decade before the iPhone was introduced. The Martino family says Rocco was a latecomer to sailing, but embraced the sport fully, becoming Commodore of the Yacht Club of Sea Isle City near the family’s summer home, as well as Commodore of the South Jersey Yacht Racing Association, both in the 1970s. Dr. Martino was a founding partner of Chesapeake Bay Media in 2014, the newly-formed company that bought Dick Royer’s Chesapeake Bay Magazine upon his retirement. Dr. Martino brought a lifetime of international business expertise to CBM as it expanded from one magazine to a multi-channel media company and custom publisher. Bay Weekly joins the entire Chesapeake Bay Media team in remembering Dr. Martino for his contributions to science and technology as well as laying the groundwork for the Chesapeake community newspaper we are proud to bring you today. p — MEG WALBURN VIVIANO, CBM NEWS DIRECTOR

state funds and a University of Md. program, the city created public water access at its public streets that ended at creek side. The first park was at Monticello Ave in Ward 1. Amos Garrett in Ward 1 and Chesapeake Ave. in Eastport (once popular with sail boarders) followed. Today there are no less than 17 public street end parks that provide access to the water. The city also has a rare public urban land trust, a tool for water and critical area protection, (unfortunately currently seldom used) that, however, protects approximately 200 acres in small open space protected parcels. St Luke’s Church, off Chesapeake Ave., has a woodland walking trail that ends at the water as does the Children’s Museum in Truxtun Heights. Additionally, the Annapolis Maritime Museum on Second Street at Back Creek, the Ellen O. Moyer Nature Park at Back Creek, Truxtun Park on Spa Creek, and Tucker Street on Weems Creek (approximately 100 acres of public recreation parkland) provide boat launching sites. HACA has waterfront property fronting on Hawkins Cove and the city owns a strip of public property along College Creek at Bloomsbury and off Clay Street.

City to increase water access for its residents on site if it chose. In more recent times there had been discussion with Speaker Busch to open the state property along College Creek for a park which would increase water access. And, of course, there is the whole City Dock where residents and visitors can enjoy a summer concert or gather for the Lights Parade. To suggest that the city is barren of water access is simply not true. I guess it is how one defines access. We do not have a waterfront connected walking trail as one finds in Bar Harbor, Maine, but over the years the city has utilized its public property (and even purchased waterfront property) to provide water access for sitting and reading or enjoying a carry out lunch, for walking, for launching a small craft or as a tie up area for those coming off boats anchored in the creeks and harbor. Yes, there is private access in neighborhood developments on what was once farm property along the Eastport peninsula. But public access to our creeks far outweighs private access. Why not celebrate what we have and move on, where opportunity beckons, to enhance our public resources for increased water access? --ELLEN MOYER, ONCE NAMED “THE MOTHER OF THE STREET END PARKS”

RARE STORM-DRIVEN TSUNAMI FORMS IN UPPER CHESAPEAKE BAY

W

hen intense storms moved through the Chesapeake region on Monday afternoon and evening, a weather phenomenon occured in the Bay: a tsunami. Yes, you read that right. The National Weather Service Mount Holly office says a rare meteotsunami happened in the Chesapeake Bay near Tolchester Beach. This is a tsunami wave that is brought on by air-pressure disturbances often associated with fast-moving weather events like severe thunderstorms, squalls, and other storm fronts—not by seismic activity. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) explains, “The storm generates a wave that moves towards the shore, and is amplified by a shallow continental shelf and inlet, bay, or other coastal feature.” According to folks at Tolchester Marina, the storm was extremely intense. Cathy Bramble, marina president, tells Bay Bulletin the rain came down sideways and wind gusts were so strong that Tolchester’s 20-foot steel flagpole was bent. Bramble says the wind also blew a sign right into the marina’s palm tree, where it became lodged in the trunk. Boaters at the marina saw hail and one sailboater’s wind instrument clocked a gust at just under 70 miles per hour. NOAA Tsunami Warning Coordinator Dave Snider, who spoke to Bay Bulletin all the way from the National Tsunami Warning Center in Alaska,

says it’s entirely possible a storm that strong could make the air pressure drop enough to create a meteotsunami. Radar loops showed that the storm outflow—a line, or in this case a ring, of cool dry winds—move out of the thunderstorm cluster in a symmetric pattern. “This pattern would have produced gusty winds as it passed over the Cheapeake Bay and lowered the atmospheric pressure suddenly,” explains Snider. NWS Mount Holly tweeted a chart showing the quick rise and subsequent fall along with several smaller “waves” following the initial disturbance in the Bay. “This is the classic meteotsunami signature with a tsunami wave followed by several smaller waves in response,” the weather service tweeted. Snider says the actual waves would have been hard to catch for those looking out at the water, since the heavy wind and rain already caused rough seas. In the case of some meteotsunamis, the water can be seen pulling back from the shore and waves pulling back in. The last suspected meteotsunami on the mid-Atlantic coast was the result of a derecho back in 2013. The phenomenon is hard to predict and therefore NOAA and the National Weather Service have been studying it to implement a warning system.

Alex Johnston, of Harris Creek Oyster Company, walks about three football fields’ length into the Eastern Bay to reach the oyster aquaculture farm.

OYSTER POP-UPS PROP UP CHESAPEAKE BUSINESSES

O

yster farmers on the Chesapeake Bay are doing their best to stay successful despite a dramatic drop in demand from restaurants during the pandemic. Lawmakers are calling on the federal government to help the oyster industry. But in the meantime, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation is helping these small businesses reach more consumers directly—through new oyster pop-up shops in Maryland and Virginia. Bay Bulletin traveled to St. Michaels to meet one of the aquaculture businesses who will be selling oysters straight to consumers at an upcoming Annapolis pop-up shop. Alex Johnston, co-owner and farm manager of Harris Creek Oyster Company, walks about three football fields’ length into the Eastern Bay to reach the oyster aquaculture farm. He grabs several bags of oysters to fill his orders for the day. “This is where the oysters really take

on their shape,” Johnston explains. “We call them bayside beauties because of how much pounding they get out here and how beautiful they come out of the water.” Back on the beach, Johnston sorts the oysters on a table. Some will go back into the water to keep growing, they need about two years to make it to our plates. Others are ready to be served at St. Michaels’ high-end Inn at Perry Cabin. Johnston’s labor of love is just coming back online after the coronavirus hit the seafood industry hard. “Sales went to practically zero overnight,” Johnston says. Harris Creek was selling only to restaurants before the pandemic, but now about 50 percent of their harvest is going directly to consumers, thanks in part to Audrey Swanenberg, the Chesapeake Oyster Alliance manager who started oyster pop-ups. “These oyster pop-ups are a great opportunity for the average resident here in Chesapeake Bay to lend a hand to

Alex Johnston asks oyster lovers to eat oysters at restaurants and pop-ups coming to the region. the oyster farmers who are doing so much to save the Bay,” Swanenberg says. The Chesapeake Bay Foundation, a partner of the alliance, is holding several pop-ups. Harris Creek Oyster Company is taking pre-orders ahead of the Annapolis pop-up on Thursday, July 16. Swanenberg says an investment in oyster aquaculture farms will help achieve the goal of 10 billion oysters in

the Bay by 2025. “Year over year they’re reinvesting in their businesses. They’re adding even more baby oysters in the Bay than the year prior. “It’s that exponential growth that we can see of this oyster farming industry,” she says. CBF sent a letter to Congressional leaders focused on the Bay watershed, who then asked the U.S. Department of Agriculture for funds from the Cares Act to support the shellfish industry.

Alex Johnston is optimistic. “The demand is starting to come back,” he says. “That fear has gone away a little bit and that excitement for the fall and the winter is starting to build as long as we don’t have any major impediments and shutdowns.” Harris Creek Oyster Company is a family-run business that goes back 13 generations. Today it sells to baseball crowds at Nationals Park and Camden Yards. They are asking oyster lovers to

show support at restaurants and the pop-ups that popped up in response to the pandemic. “They’re coming straight out of the water. We’ll be harvesting that morning and bringing them right across the bridge,” Johnston says of the Annapolis pop-up.

MEN CAUGHT WITH 57 POACHED ROCKFISH AT BALTIMORE PIER

T

hree men face multiple charges after police say they grossly violated rockfish catch limits while fishing without licenses in Baltimore. Maryland Natural Resources Police (NRP) say on June 14, an officer was on patrol just before midnight when he stopped to refuel at the Marine Max fuel pier, near the Clinton Street industrial piers in Southeast Baltimore. NRP says the officer noticed three men fishing from the fuel pier and carrying buckets filled with a large number of fish. Officers conducted a conservation stop and found a total of 57 striped bass inside two buckets and a cooler. Rene Lopez, 46, Luis Lemus-Velasquez, 27, both from Halethorpe and Erlyn Ordonez Nunez, 30, of Baltimore, were charged with fishing without a Chesapeake Bay and coastal fishing license, exceeding the daily limit, and keeping undersized striped bass. Officers seized the 57 fish and returned them to the water. Because it was late at night, NRP spokesperson Lauren Moses tells Bay Bulletin the poached fish couldn’t be taken to a food bank, as is sometimes done in these cases. “We weren’t going to allow the poachers to keep the fish and if the fish were left out, wildlife would have fed on them.” The three men charged could face a $2,000 fine if found guilty. During the summer rockfish season in Maryland, the catch limit is one fish per person per day with a minimum size of 19 inches. Striped bass have been under strict conservation measures coastwide after mid-Atlantic fisheries managers found mortality was too high and rockfish were being overfished. —MEG WALBURN VIVIANO

MAJOR LEAGUE LACROSSE 20TH ANNIVERSARY SCHEDULE

Outdoor pro lacrosse league will play at Navy Stadium with no fans BY MEG WALBURN VIVIANO

W

hile professional sports teams scramble to put on a season amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Major League Lacrosse (MLL) is putting all its hopes on Annapolis. MLL, whose summer season has been on hold, announced an updated 2020 schedule that will take place entirely at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis. The one-week “season” will host all six MLL teams beginning July 18, finishing with a final four playoff to crown the 2020 champions the weekend of July 25. Navy Stadium is the home of the 2019 MLL champion Chesapeake Bayhawks and hosted the 2019 All-Star Game, so the league says it’s fitting to stage Major League Lacrosse’s 20th anniversary season in Annapolis. “The Bayhawks have been the pinnacle of lacrosse in Maryland, the nation’s epicenter of lacrosse, for 20 years,” said Governor Larry Hogan. “As we gradually reopen the state for business and entertainment, it is great to see national organizations like Major League Lacrosse invest in Maryland.” Commissioner Alexander Brown says the league will be taking plenty of precautions considering the coronavirus. “MLL

Counting Horseshoes For Science BY KRISTA PFUNDER

T

he annual horseshoe crab count by the Anne Arundel County Dept. Of Recreation and Parks will go on this year, but without the help of its usual eager volunteers. The COVID-19 pandemic prompted the county not to invite the multitude of volunteers who usually head out to local beaches to investigate the spawn-

ing of the arthropods. The count will be held between now and the end of July when the crabs deposit eggs on sandy shores. The horseshoe crabs at Beverly Triton Nature Park and Mayo Beach Park in Edgewater are counted to ensure the health of the crabs and make any needed adjustments to the management of their habitat. The crabs have been counted every year since 2017. “We usually utilize volunteers or park staff to stroll the beaches and

count during peak hours,” says Karen Jarboe, park superintendent for Mayo Peninsula Parks. “We typically stick to a morning count as the afternoon counts are less productive. It seems the crabs prefer the morning hours to spawn.” With no volunteers being accepted it will be up to park staff to tally the numbers. Keeping track of the crabs tells the county valuable information. “Horseshoe crab eggs are pretty durable if

they are left buried in the sand,” Jarboe says. “So, people walking on horseshoe spawning grounds isn’t a big deal. However, digging can be problematic.” The county implemented No Dig Zones this year on a small portion of the beach to mitigate some of that impact. “The new zones seem to be working out pretty well and it helps people realize that they aren’t the only ones who enjoy the beach,” Jarboe says. Thanks to the count, researchers have learned that spawning occurs at different times in different locations. “We are finding that the horseshoe crabs at Beverly Triton spawn later than the horseshoe crabs that spawn on the Delaware seashore,” Jarboe says. Plans are already being made for the 2021 count. “Some years they arrive earlier, some years, later,” Jarboe says “I think it has to do with water temperature. We will begin including water temperature in our data collection next year to see if that thesis is correct.” If you’d like to help count horseshoe crabs in the years to come, there may be even more opportunities. “In the future we may be looking at expanding our count area, and potentially using more volunteers,” Jarboe says. Learn more about horseshoe crabs— and their surprising intersection with the medical industry—in Wayne Bierbaum’s Creature Feature piece on page 15. p

ERVING THE PUBLIC is what libraries were built for. Even in a pandemic. From expanding its virtual programs and digital collections to launching curbside pickup for the first time last month, the Anne Arundel County Public Library (AACPL) system has done a lot to continue serving the public—especially since all 16 branches closed their doors on March 13 to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Now, all branches, aside from the system’s newest branch in Annapolis, have resumed indoor service—in-

cluding, notably, the newly-renovated Severn Community Library. Naturally, you should expect some changes in how things will flow in your local branch now. For starters, all libraries are running a more-limited-than-normal schedule, open Monday through Thursday (10am-7pm), and Saturday, (10am-5pm) with reduced occupancy. That means 26 people max


NO MORE new Annapolis library debuts later this month indoors at a small branch like Deale Library and 74 maximum at the Crofton branch, at least through September 7. Most locations will continue to offer curbside pickup Monday through Thursday (3-6pm), and Friday and Saturday (10am-noon). As for what things look like inside,

all staff and patrons will be wearing masks (free masks are available to patrons while supplies last); the amount of furniture and seating will be reduced, as well as the number of available public computers, and computer time will be limited to two hours per person.

Although there will be no in-person programs or use of meeting and conference rooms, the virtual programming will continue all summer, including the popular Summer @ Your Library program. Kids can still log their reading time, books and activities to win prizes in the challenge

through the Beanstack website. Access to some physical materials and services will also be limited, including toys in the children’s areas, and no faxing, scanning, copying, or wireless printing, with all returns limited to book drop. Patrons are encouraged to use a self-checkout ma-

Calvert County libraries remain closed to the public, although curbside services are available. Library spokesperson Robyn Truslow says the board of trustees met July 7 to discuss next stage plans in order to work toward a safe reopening. “In the meantime, we are pleased to be getting library materials in customers’ hands via curbside pickup and of course continuing to provide phone/email reference and tech training, digital circulation and online events, performances and classes,” Truslow says.

chine or the AACPL Checkout App. Of course these rules and regulations are well worth the price of admission (aka free) for what many people consider an essential service—and well worth the wait for those in Annapolis, where patrons have been waiting

on the county’s first new library construction in 16 years, the Michael E. Busch Annapolis Library, which broke ground in April 2018. As Christine Feldmann, AACPL Marketing and Communications Director, puts it, “People will be blown away with all this building has to offer and all a library can be.” Opening on July 22, the 32,500-squarefoot facility has likely already caught the attention of passersby thanks to its beautiful brick façade, plentiful floorto-ceiling windows, and angled “prow” that faces West Street. Inside, a 230-foot-long central corridor with a sloped exposed-beam ceil-

ing and windows provides lots of light, along with an assortment of hanging lights. The increase in size was a necessity, as Feldmann expects the new library to attract roughly 1,500 visitors a day, up from the old library’s average of 1,000, and inspire plenty of new card signups once capacity returns to normal. As for what will draw these visitors in and keep them coming on a regular basis, Library CEO Skip Auld says it’s all about having something – or really multiple things – for everyone. “Libraries have a history going back many centuries as a storehouse for books, with the emphasis on preser-

vation rather than use,” Auld continues. “However, in our modern era, libraries have become places that function to serve ever-changing community needs, and every square foot of the new Annapolis Library reflects the changing nature of how people use libraries.” The Busch Annapolis Library will house approximately 85,000 combined print books, magazines, newspapers, audiobooks, CDs, DVDs, Launchpads, and Playaways. The high-tech facility will also offer self-service through meeScan, a new app that allows you to scan your materials on your phone and check your-

self out in one fell swoop. But the many age- and service-specific areas of the library mean that most visitors will likely want to do more than just grab and go. Once regular service resumes, the children’s areas will host diverse early development and reading programs, while the 32-computer Tech Zone will provide teens and adults the opportunity to pursue research and career advancement. The Tinker/Maker Space, a STEM-driven area filled with hightech to low-tech tools, from a heat press and 3D printer to a LEGO wall, and the large vending café are sure to be big draws as well. And as Feld-

mann reports, the library will be able to offer far more programming than ever before, from movie nights and concerts, to yoga and high-visibility author lectures, in the 3,000 squarefoot meeting room. Of interest to Bay country, the library offers plenty of unique Chesapeake-inspired design elements to enjoy as well. Without giving too much away, you’ll be sure to notice the town and city names on a huge digital map of the entire Chesapeake Bay at the building’s entrance, and you’ll likely recognize at least one of the historical figures on the main corridor’s wall panels. Venture to the

Gold Star Room and take a look at the carpet and, if you can’t figure out what it depicts, ask a librarian for the answer. Because that is what the new Michael E. Busch Annapolis Library and all of the county’s branches offer us: discovery. Discovering interests you didn’t know you had, opportunities you didn’t know existed, and the ability to pursue them in a place that, not so long ago, many people predicted would be doomed by the rise of the internet, e-books, and social media addiction. That’s certainly not the case in Anne Arundel County, and we sure are happy to have our libraries back. p

SPORTING LIFE

BY DENNIS DOYLE

Bloodworms: The best fish bait for the Bay—when you can get it T he term ubiquitous means something that seems to be all over, everywhere, all the time and when discussing live baits for fishing the Chesapeake that term definitely applies to the bloodworm. They catch everything, everywhere and are used by everyone along the Bay. Jumbo bloodworms up to 12 inches for big migratory rockfish have long been a key to success in the early springtime. For the rest of the season, smaller sizes for schoolies have garnered many a limit for Maryland anglers. Pieces of bloodworm adorning various sizes of hooks throughout the regular seasons have also secured countless white and yellow perch, Norfolk spot, croaker and catfish. Their overwhelming popularity, however, has created problems this year. In recent weeks the baits have been totally unavailable and the supply chain for these essential angling bits has broken down repeatedly. A supply chain is all the necessary links to procuring a product at its source and eventually providing that product to the end user. The COVID19 crisis alone has caused delivery problems for this, the most over-

whelmingly popular Chesapeake bait. Businesses of all types, all over, have been ordered periodically closed because of the pandemic and that includes marine bait businesses and shipment services. Another critical reason for the breakdown in the bloodworm supply, however, may come as a surprise. Bloodworms are not naturally found anywhere near or around the Chesapeake, they are harvested principally from the tidal mudflats in far distant

FISHFINDER: The rockfish bite has become difficult. The charter fleets and their accompanying horde of following sport anglers seem to be concentrated on the Eastern Shore a mile or so north of Swan Point and are chumming up limits of stripers in the 19 to 22-inch range. South of those locations the pickings are slim until you reach the Poplar Island, Eastern Bay areas where some better fish are being found. Trolling is having some success with small to medium bucktails. White perch are schooling well but are mostly under nine inches. Spot are just about everywhere as are tiny croaker (be careful: they look just like spot but are illegal under nine inches). Crabbing is getting better but is still far from good, keep moving until you find them. Maine and that results in an especially extended supply chain. The worms come from a long way away. Hand-picked, this stoop labor product is captured by individuals armed with a rudimentary hand rake, gum boots, a bucket and a mesh strainer that allows them to be rinsed and sorted for minimum size (four inches is legal). The very task of harvesting the worms can be hazardous. The tidal flats of Maine can only be accessed at low tide but the tidal flows are nowhere as gentle as found in the Chesapeake. Maine tides are often 20 feet or higher and while there are two cycles a day, like the Bay, anyone not moving quickly and carefully may suddenly find themselves and their buckets of worms being swept out to sea. To further pinch the supply problem, the bloodworm is one of the most popular baits almost everywhere along the Atlantic Littoral, not just the Chesapeake. Maine’s Department of Marine Resources is responsible for

the management of the marine bloodworms but, like all attempts at reining in commercial access, the annual harvest (now down to some 400,000 pounds) has inevitably resulted in overfishing. Harvests have fallen by estimates of up to 75 percent since the 1970s. Artificial bloodworms, developed by some major fishing tackle companies, have experienced temporary popularity over the last few years but none have lasted very long. The most reliable has been Bag O’ Worms by Fishbites, a soft pink soluble plastic-like material extruded on fabric strips. Their effectiveness has been inconsistent. Natural alternatives are limited and also of mixed effectiveness: razor clam and grass shrimp, red worms or nightcrawlers. Soft and peeler crabs can actually prove superior but are hard to find, perishable and more expensive than bloodworms. With future bloodworm supplies in doubt, it is prudent to develop alternate solutions. One last caveat for the casual user, the critters can bite you. Not at all painfully or seriously, I should point out, but don’t be surprised. ‫ﵭ‬ W E D N E S D AY

STORY AND PHOTOS BY WAYNE BIERBAUM

Living Fossils on Our Shores he horseshoe crab has been called a living fossil and has remained virtually unchanged over 250 million years, predating the dinosaurs. These arthropods are not true crabs (crustaceans) and are more closely related to a scorpion than a blue crab. Horseshoe crabs feed on debris in sandy or shallow water estuaries or saltwater shorelines. They are most active at night and have seven eyes to see in the dark. Their eyes are several hundred times more sensitive to light than ours. They have external gills found in a tail section and a spine that is primarily used to right themselves and not for protection. The horseshoe crabs spawn at the highest tides of the spring along the water’s edge. Delaware Bay has the largest population of these crabs in the world, possibly due to the shallow average water depth. In some areas of the Delaware Bay, so many spawn at once that you cannot walk along the shore. The Chesapeake Bay has a smaller population but they still have a spring spawn. The eggs are laid along the high-water mark and waves cover them with sand and debris. The embryos will then develop in the moist sand and at the next high tide, the young crabs release themselves into the water and spread out over the surface for a few days to a few weeks when they grow too heavy to swim. As the crabs mature, they molt and develop a larger shell. They molt six times in their first year and can live to be more than 40 years old. They do not reach sexual maturity until they are 10 to 14 years old. Horseshoe crab’s blood is used by the medical industry to test for bacterial toxins. About 500,000 crabs a year are caught for this use. They are released after having their blood taken but only about 75 percent survive. Horseshoe

T

crabs are also used as eel and conch bait. In the late 1990s, when eel and conch prices went up, more crabs were harvested and by 2002 their population started to collapse. In 2008, a limit to catching horseshoe crabs was put into effect in Delaware, and harvesting was banned in New Jersey but the population has not recovered. The horseshoe crab spawning is extremely important for shorebird migrations. Clouds of sandpiper-like birds time their migrations to coincide with the crab’s life cycle. The red knot relies on the Delaware spawn to fuel their migration to their breeding grounds in the Arctic Circle, a 15,000-mile trip. The birds spend the winter at the southern tip of South America and are very thin and exhausted when they arrive in Delaware on the hunt for horseshoe crab eggs. They will double their weight and are able to complete the journey north after this rest stop. Without the eggs, they would likely perish or at least stop short and will not reproduce. Seeing thousands of crabs and thousands of birds along a beach is amazing. But they spawn in the shallow at their own peril. Waves are the crabs’ nemesis. Frequently the spawning horseshoe crabs are flipped onto their backs by waves and cannot get back into the water and die in the sun. I have been to a private beach where several thousand were dead and drying out, belly up in the sand. If you see a horseshoe crab that has been flipped on its back, tap the shell with your foot to see if it is alive. If alive, then pick it up by the sides of the shell and release it upright into the water. Lifting it by the tail can injure the animal. Remember that the crabs you find on the shore are at least 10 years old and will continue coming to the shore for 15 more years. ‫ﵭ‬ July 9 - July 16, 2020 • BAY WEEKLY • 15

Make Room for Dahlias in Your Garden D ahlias are among the most beautiful and diverse flowers available. Everybody loves dahlias. They’ve experienced a resurgence in popularity and are romantic additions to wedding bouquets. You can purchase them from nurseries as bedding plants or you can start them from tubers or even from seed. Dahlias are not hardy, but their tubers can be dug and saved from year to year. Tubers can be planted outside after the danger of frost has passed, from May 15 on. Dahlias prefer a sunny location that receives at least six hours of sun. The soil should be fertile, well drained and with a pH of 6.5 to 7.0. In late fall, once the plants have been blackened by frost, cut the stalk off about 6 to 8 inches above the ground. With a shovel, carefully loosen and lift the clump. Remove the soil, being careful not to break the tubers. Allow them to air harden for four hours, then wash them clean with a garden hose and let them dry. Divide the clumps by cutting the individual tubers, taking care to leave a piece of the crown or old stalk attached to each

tuber. Pack the tubers in vermiculite or peat moss and store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place until spring, when the temperature is between 40 and 50 degrees. I’m basically a lazy gardener and don’t like digging up tubers. I put mine in a raised bed or large planter (24 inches) that has a half-inch of hardware cloth on the bottom to keep the voles out. My raised beds are made of recycled plastic lumber 12 inches high or cinder blocks. In the fall, I cut all the stalks off and cover the entire bed with horticultural blanket, greenhouse film or a heavyduty plastic drop cloth. Then I secure it all with metal staples to keep the tubers dry. This has worked for several years and plant growth starts early in the spring. Dahlias come in a wide range of colors, shapes and sizes. The flowers can range from 4 inches to 10 inches across. Some dahlias grow very tall (5 to 6 feet) and need to be staked. They are disease and pest free. Thanks to the 42 species available, dahlias are sure to bring lots of color and interest to your garden. ‫ﵭ‬

The only way Jesper can get out of the posting is if he gets the town to send a thousand letters. That’s easier said than done when the town elders won’t interact at all. When Jesper discovers Klaus (J.K. Simmons), a woodsman who loves making toys, he gets an idea: If he can convince the children to post letters to Klaus requesting toys, he’ll meet his letter quota. But the joy of the children begins to change the small little town. Can a little bit of kindness and a few stamps really end the feud? If you’re looking for a little Christmas in July, Klaus is the perfect way to get in the spirit. The sweet animated film is an excellent reminder that the spirit of the season is always more important than the present tally. Featuring great vocal performances from Simmons and Schwartzman, the movie is surprisingly funny and can appeal to all ages. Good Animation * PG * 96 mins.

DISNEY+: Cool Runnings Derice Bannock (Leon Robinson] dreams of being an Olympian. When his hopes of qualifying as a sprinter are dashed by bad luck, Derice fears his dream is dead. But when he meets disgraced former bobsled coach Irv (John Candy), Derice realizes he still has a shot at Olympic glory. Derice puts together a bobsled team.

At first, the town thinks it’s a joke, Jamaica has never had a bobsled team. They don’t even have any snowy conditions to train on. But as the men train together, they begin to win supporters. Can a Jamaican bobsled team medal at the Olympics? Based on a true story, Cool Runnings is a silly film about chasing your dreams no matter what. Whether they’re practicing in a freezer truck or training with pushcarts, these men won’t be denied their goal. Director Jon Turteltaub blends humor and an underdog sports story for a truly inspiring tale of perseverance. Brilliant performances from Candy and Leon help sell this family flick. Good Comedy * PG * 98 mins.

PRIME: Arctic After his plane goes down, pilot Overgård (Mads Mikkelsen) manages to eke out a meager existence. He ice fishes, treks to the top of a hill to attempt to signal for help, avoids a hungry polar bear and maintains a giant SOS in the snow. His days are repetitive with no hope of rescue in sight. He’s lost three toes to frostbite and it’s just a matter of time before the rest of his body gives out. When a helicopter arrives, Overgård thinks he’s saved. But the helicopter goes down in a blizzard, leaving only a wounded pilot and a destroyed machine. Overgård must decide whether to stay put and let the pilot die or attempt to drag her on a perilous journey to a lookout post. If you’re longing for colder weather, Arctic might make you reconsider. A stirring survival adventure, this is a film that will have you on the edge of your seat as Overgård trudges through nearly impossible conditions. The film also features an amazing performance by Mikkelsen, who’s alone for most of his screen time. It’s incredible to watch him hold the frame in a nearly silent performance. Great Action * PG-13 * 98 mins.

HULU: Anna and the Apocalypse Anna (Ella Hunt) wants nothing more than to leave her small Scottish town of New Haven. She has big plans to travel and have adventures. The thrills find her instead when zombies raid her town. Now she has to fight through zombies using little more than her wits and spare Christmas decorations if she’s ever going to leave town. Did I mention this is a musical? Combining zombies, musical numbers, and some genuine laughs Anna and the Apocalypse is basically Sean of the Dead for theater kids. Though at times the humor is a little broad, the movie stays entertaining thanks in large part to a star turn from Hunt. The result is a holiday zombie flick that’s surprisingly peppy and full of catchy tunes. If you’re in the movie for a cold weather flick that’s full of quirks and gore, Anna and the Apocalypse has just enough bite to keep you occupied. Good Horror Musical * R * 99 mins.

KANOPY: Force Majeure While enjoying a ski trip in the French Alps, a Swedish family sees a controlled avalanche and mistakes it for a deadly force of nature. In a panic, Tomas (Johannes Kuhnke) abandons his children and wife, running to safety. After the snow settles, he’s faced with two scared children and a furious wife. Can Tomas win back the respect of his family before the vacation is over? DO NOT give in to temptation and watch the English version of this film starring Will Ferrell. It’s an anemic imitation with none of the original’s insightful writing or beautiful acting. Director Ruben Östlund examines traditional masculinity, relationship dynamics, and how relationship troubles affect all those around them. The movie is moving, uncomfortable, and deeply funny. If you’ve been sheltering-in-place too long and said something terrible to your family in the heat of the moment, you’ll be able to relate to Force Majeure’s train wreck trip to the Alps. Great Dramedy * R * 120 mins.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “As beautiful as simplicity is, it can become a tradition that stands in the way of exploration,” said singer Laura Nyro. This is practical advice for you to heed in the coming weeks. According to my analysis, you’re scheduled to enjoy an extended engagement with rich, fertile complexity. The best teachings won’t be reducible to a few basic lessons; rather, they’ll be rife with soulful nuances. The same is true about the splendid dilemmas that bring you stimulating amusements: They can’t and shouldn’t be forced into pigeonholes. As a general rule, anything that seems easy and smooth and straightforward will probably not be useful. Your power will come from what’s crooked, dense, and labyrinthine.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may think that playing heavy metal music and knitting with yarn don’t have much in common. And yet there is an annual contest in Joensuu, Finland where people with expertise in needlework join heavy metal musicians on stage, plying their craft in rhythm to the beat. The next Heavy Metal Knitting World Championship will be July 15-16, 2021. This year’s event was canceled due to the pandemic. If it had been staged, I bet multiple Tauruses would have been among the top ten competitors. Why? Because you Bulls are at the peak of your ability to combine things that aren’t often combined. You have the potential to excel at making unexpected connections, linking influences that haven’t been linked before, and being successful at comparing apples and oranges.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In 1848, Danish King Frederick VII agreed, under pressure from liberal agitators, to relinquish some of his absolute power. Thereafter, he shared his decision-making with a newly formed parliament. He was pleased with this big change because it lightened his workload. “That was nice,” he remarked after signing the new constitution. “Now I can sleep in every morning.” I recommend him to you as an inspirational role model in the coming weeks. What so-called advantages in your life are more boring or burdensome than fun and interesting? Consider the possibility of shedding dubious “privileges” and status symbols.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian author Mary McCarthy provides you with a challenge you’ll be wise to relish during the rest of 2020. She writes, “Everyone continues to be interested in the quest for the self, but what you feel when you’re older is that you really must make the self.” McCarthy implies that this epic reorientation isn’t likely until you’ve been on earth for at least four decades. But judging from the astrological omens, I think you’re ready for it now— no matter what your age is. To drive

home the point, I’ll say it in different words. Your task isn’t to find yourself, but rather to create yourself. Don’t wait around passively for life to show you who you are. Show life who you are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Some night soon, I predict you’ll have an agitated dream while you’re asleep: a nightmare that symbolizes an unresolved conflict you’re wrestling with in your waking life. Here’s a possible example: A repulsive politician you dislike may threaten to break a toy you loved when you were a kid. But surprise! There’ll be a happy ending. A good monster will appear in your dream and fix the problem; in my example, the benevolent beast will scare away the politician who’s about to break your beloved toy. Now here’s the great news: In the days after your dream, you’ll solve the conflict you’ve been wrestling with in your waking life.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Love is the best school, but the tuition is high and the homework can be painful,” writes author Diane Ackerman. I’m guessing that in recent months, her description has been partially true for you Virgos. From what I can tell, love has indeed been a rigorous school. And the tuition has been rather high. But on the other hand, the homework has been at least as pleasurable as it has been painful. I expect these trends to continue for the foreseeable future. What teachings about intimacy, communion, tenderness, and compassion would you like to study next?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “A single feat of daring can alter the whole conception of what is possible,” wrote Libran novelist Graham Greene. His words can serve as a stirring motto for you in the coming weeks. I sense you’re close to summoning a burst of courage—a bigger supply of audacity than you’ve had access to in a while. I hope you’ll harness this raw power to fuel a daring feat that will expand your conception of what is possible.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “It’s not always easy to tell the difference between thinking and looking out of the window,” wrote poet Wallace Stevens. That’s a problem you won’t have to worry about anytime soon. The coming weeks will be a favorable phase for you to both think and gaze out the window—as well as to explore all the states in-between. In other words, you’ll have the right and the need to indulge in a leisurely series of dreamy ruminations and meandering fantasies and playful explorations of your deepest depths and your highest heights. Don’t rush the process. Allow yourself to linger in the gray areas and the vast stretches of inner wildness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The coming weeks will be a favorable time to undertake a transformative vision quest, even if the exigencies of the pandemic require your quest to unfold primarily in your inner realms. The near future will also bring you good fortune if you focus on creating more sacredness in your rhythm and if you make a focused effort to seek out songs, texts, inspirations, natural places, and teachers that infuse you with a reverence for life. I’m trying to help you to see, Sagittarius, that you’re in a phase when you can attract healing synchronicities into your world by deepening your sense of awe and communing with experiences that galvanize you to feel worshipful.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “To love well is the task in all meaningful relationships, not just romantic bonds.” The author and activist bell hooks wrote that. (She doesn’t capitalize her name.) In accordance with the highest astrological potentials, I’m inviting you Capricorns to be inspired by her wisdom as you upgrade your meaningful relationships during the next six weeks. I think it’s in your self-interest to give them even more focus and respect and appreciation than you already do. Be ingenious as you boost the generosity of spirit you bestow on your allies. Be resourceful as you do this impeccable work in the midst of a pandemic!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “One-half of knowing what you want is knowing what you must give up before you get it,” wrote author Sydney Howard. Now would be a perfect time to act on that excellent advice. Is there any obstacle standing in the way of your ability to achieve a beloved dream? Is there a pretty good thing that’s distracting you from devoting yourself wholeheartedly to a really great thing? I invite you to be a bit ruthless as you clear the way to pursue your heart’s desire.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Author Ellen Goodman writes, “The truth is that we can overhaul our surroundings, renovate our environment, talk a new game, join a new club, far more easily than we can change the way we respond emotionally. It is easier to change behavior than feelings about that behavior.” I think she’s correct in her assessment. But I also suspect that you’re in a prime position to be an exception to the rule. In the coming weeks, you will have exceptional power to transform the way you feel— especially if those feelings have previously been based on a misunderstanding of reality and especially if those feelings have been detrimental to your mental and physical health. Homework: Is there a so-called weakness or liability you might be able to turn into an asset? FreeWillAstrology.com.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD

in Calvert County

COMPILED BY ANDREWS McMEEL SYNDICATION

Idle Hands

Devin Roberts, 32, of Bardwell, Kentucky, caught the attention of local media after being arrested three times in one week. Carlisle County Sheriff ’s deputies first encountered Roberts on June 23, WSIL reported, when he called the sheriff ’s office to say he had taken a case he found next to a dumpster that turned out to contain items belonging to the city. When officers arrived, they determined the case had been removed from a city building. The following Saturday, Roberts was accused of fighting with a grocery store clerk and making lewd comments to female employees. Sheriff William Gilbert found Roberts at his home, passed out in a running vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. He had also left his 3year-old son at home with another inebriated person. Finally, on June 28, deputies pulling over a car on suspicion of drunken driving found Roberts in the passenger seat, drunk and in possession of alcohol, which violated the terms of his earlier bonds. Roberts faces multiple charges related to all three encounters.

• The Sun reported on June 29 that two Ryanair pilots are in the (chicken) soup after they recorded themselves getting silly with a rubber chicken in the cockpit of a Boeing 737-800. In the video, thought to be recorded as passengers boarded the plane in Birmingham, England, the first officer and pilot trade off using the chicken to operate the airplane’s throttle and making it squeak while mugging for the camera. Other crew members laugh in the background. A spokesperson for Ryanair commented: “These pictures and videos show crew on the ground in a parked aircraft with the engines shut down. While the images are unprofessional, the actions in them posed no risk and safety was never compromised. ... (Nevertheless) we are investigating the matter further.” • Merseyside Police responding to the scene of a crash in Huyton, England, in the wee hours of June 28 say they arrived in time to witness a woman “finishing off a glass of wine,” according to the Echo. In the collision, a white Mercedes had plowed into a parked Ford Focus, with both cars sustaining significant damage. Photographs from the scene showed the Mercedes to contain an empty wine bottle on the floor of the passenger seat, along with a wine glass, and another full bottle in a storage compartment. Police announced the arrest of two women, 33 and 35, on suspicion of unauthorized taking of a motor vehicle and drunk driving.

Retired wheat farmer Peter Grundy, 84, of Denilliquin, New South Wales, Australia, has wanted to sell his apartment in Melbourne for the past eight years so he can move to a retirement home, but he’s been foiled by his 49year-old daughter, Katrina, who refuses to move out. Grundy has taken his daughter to court to evict her, Nine reported, but she won’t budge, and Grundy is running out of options. “I’m sure it’s taken the bit of youth I had left in me,” said Grundy, describing his daughter as “very clever in legal terms.” Katrina contends her parents gifted her the apartment, but a judge has dismissed that claim. Dad has spent about $70,000 (Australian) in legal fees. “She has an enormous capability to come up with things we never heard of,” he said.

This Old House

Should Have Seen It Coming

Firefighters were called to a home in Guilford, Connecticut, on June 29 where a resident had fallen through a wood floor in the 177-year-old house and down about 30 feet into a well, WHDH reported. The victim treaded water for about 25 minutes while responders worked to hoist them out. Apparently, the well had been covered over by an addition made to the home during a 1981 renovation. “Some of these older, historical homes may have hazards that were not updated by current code,” the Guilford Police Department tweeted. The victim was taken to the hospital but had only minor injuries.

Alexander Feaster, 44, in Hunter, Oklahoma, was arrested and charged in the June 28 shooting of an unnamed 26-yearold woman who had been attending a party across the street from Feaster’s property. Garfield County Sheriff Jody Helm told KFOR that, on a dare, the woman had tried to steal one of two Nazi swastika flags displayed in Feaster’s front yard, but “on the way back, someone hollered gun. She dropped the flag ... and shots were fired.” Police executing a search warrant on the home found more than a dozen guns and ammunition. Feaster was charged with assault and battery with a deadly weapon and shooting with intent to kill. The woman is expected to survive. ‫ﵭ‬

Repeat Offender

Bay Borough police said Porter broke into the King Salmon Fire Station around 9 p.m., where he started the truck and drove it through the station’s closed bay doors, making his way west on the Alaska Peninsula Highway about 15 miles to Naknek. Police Chief John Rhyshek said Porter caused about $10,000 in damage and put the fire truck out of commission while repairs are made to it.

T

TikTok user Kevin Wise told KSLA he was looking for his five minutes of fame when he jumped into a fish tank at Bass Pro Shop in Bossier, Louisiana, in late June. “I said that if I got 2,000 likes, I would jump in the tank,” Wise said. “I got way more than that and didn’t want to be a liar.” Shopper Treasure McGraw recorded video of Wise swimming around in the tank before he climbed out and ran through the store, soaking wet. “We heard a big splash, and I thought it was one of the fish,” McGraw said. Initially, Bass Pro Shops said it would not press charges, but on June 26, the company filed a complaint with the Bossier City Police Department, noting that it had to empty the 13,000gallon tank and clean it after Wise’s swim. Wise wouldn’t recommend the stunt to others. “Don’t do spur-of-themoment crap like I do,” he warned.

Questionable Judgments

e

A police officer in West Yorkshire, England, shared the thoughts of many after being called to the scene of a wreck involving a $300,000 Lamborghini that lasted only 20 minutes on the road before it was totaled on June 24. “It’s only a car,” the officer tweeted, but he “could have cried.” According to the BBC, the car suffered a mechanical failure during its virgin drive and came to a stop in the outside lane of the M1 motorway, where it was rear-ended by a van. The driver of the van suffered nonserious head injuries in the crash. The Lamborghini driver was not identified, nor was it clear whether he was hurt in the crash.

in 2 minutes from the letters in: Three Sheets

The sheet referred to in three sheets in the wind is not a bedlinen, but the line or chain attached to the lower corner of a ship's sail. When the line is slack the sheet is running free and the sail is said to be 'in the wind.' This causes the sail to flutter without control. One sail in the wind is not too bad a problem, but when all three sails sheets are ‘in the wind’ the ship staggers in the water like a drunk person. How sailors came up with a metaphor about being staggeringly drunk has etymologists drinking. Scoring: 31 - 40 = Aloft; 26 - 30 = Ahead; 21 - 25 = Aweigh; 16 - 20 = Amidships; 11 - 15 = Aboard; 05 - 10 = Adrift; 01 - 05 = Aground
