Art: An Escape from Pandemic Uncertainty

W

hat’s one hobby you’ve picked up since the pandemic began? I saw this question asked of a national audience and the answers ran the gamut from jogging to jigsaw puzzles. But for one-third of Americans recently polled by a culture website, the answer is art.

Painting or drawing, coloring books, even paint-by-numbers are among the projects people are embracing as the threat of COVID-19 keeps us closer to home. Why? Diving into artistic pursuits can give the artist (no matter the skill level) the satisfaction of a finished product. In an era when many of us go for weeks at a time without wearing “real pants” (who will see my sweats anyway?), a completed artwork is visual proof we have accomplished something.

The immersive experience of creating art can also provide an escape. An unattributed quote turns up frequently in art therapy circles: “Art is you being free from all the world’s heaviness.”

The American Art Therapy Association notes, “Engaging in repetitive, rhythmic acts inherent in art-making…create opportunities to calm the

body and the mind, strengthen self-soothing, mindfulness, and strategies for coping with these times of high anxiety, stress, and uncertainty.”

Besides, art is just plain fun. At home with two preschoolers, art projects have carried me through many a day in quarantine. I’ll admit, I was reluctant to take on the messiest arts and crafts at first.

To a control freak like me, finger paint in the hands of a 2-year-old is a terrifying thought. But my boys responded to these activities with so much engagement and delight, I threw caution to the wind (and an old shower curtain on the floor). By May, we had created masterpieces by dragging toy trucks through paint, making heart-shaped “stamps” out of toilet paper tubes, and even blowing bubbles tinted with food coloring onto paper.

Art’s ability to lighten our spirits is evident in this issue of CBM Bay Weekly. We see a beloved county park honored with a special anniversary poster, made more special because of the artist’s personal connection to the park. We also celebrate 30 years of an Annapolis tradition: ArtWalk, which takes guests on a unique gallery-hopping tour.

We look forward to seeing (in person!) the works that local artists have been inspired to create during these long months, while the rest of us have been coloring by numbers and finger painting our stress away. There will, of course, be adjustments to the event this year to allow for safe distancing.

And speaking of events with adjustments, CBM got a chance to go behind the scenes at last weekend’s Crabs To-Go drive-thru crab feast put on by the Rotary Club of Annapolis. You won’t believe how many crabs they managed to steam, pack and load, all onsite at Navy Stadium. As we continue to celebrate all things crabby (does a day go by that Bay country doesn’t celebrate crabs?) we’re delighted to see more folks catching on to Bay Weekly’s secondary purpose as crab paper. Keep posting and sending those crabpickin’ pics with the hashtag #BayWeeklyGets Crabby! Just please be sure to read the paper before you dump the bushel basket onto it. p — MEG WALBURN VIVIANO, CBM NEWS DIRECTOR

HURRICANE SEASON UPGRADED FROM “ABOVE AVERAGE” TO “EXTREMELY ACTIVE”

O

n the heels of Tropical Storm Isaias, NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center says this Atlantic hurricane season could be one of the busiest since their forecasting began.

The Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook released in May predicted an above-average 2020 season, one with 13 to 19 named storms. In the August update, NOAA says conditions are primed to fuel storm development, leading to an 85 percent chance we’ll see an “extremely active” season of 19 to 25 named storms.

Already the 2020 season has set a record with nine named storms so far (historically, only about two named storms form by this point in the season).

“This is one of the most active seasonal forecasts that NOAA has produced in its 22-year history of hurricane outlooks,” said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Wilbur Ross. “We encourage all Americans to do their part by getting prepared, remaining vigilant, and being ready to take action when necessary.”

Of the 19 to 25 named storms predicted, NOAA calls for seven to 11 of them to become hurricanes, including three to six major hurricanes with winds of 111 miles per hour or greater.

“This year, we expect more, stronger, and longer-lived storms than average, and our predicted ACE (accumulated cyclone energy) range extends well above NOAA’s threshold for an extremely active season,” said Gerry Bell, Ph.D., lead seasonal hurricane forecaster at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center.

The current oceanic and atmospheric conditions (warm sea surface, reduced vertical wind shear, weaker trade winds, and an enhanced west African monsoon) are expected to continue for the next several months.

The six-month Atlantic hurricane season lasts until November 30. It’s important to note that NOAA’s outlook is for storms that form, not those that make landfall. Landfalls are largely determined by short-term weather pat-

terns, which are only predictable about a week before a storm’s potential arrival at the coast.

DRIVE-THRU ROTARY CLUB CRAB FEAST A SELLOUT SUCCESS

L

ast Friday evening, a long line of cars replaced what the Rotary Club of Annapolis calls the World’s Largest Crab Feast.

More than 2,000 guests have packed into the Navy Marine-Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis for decades to crack crabs, elbow to elbow. This feast was supposed to mark the crab feast’s 75th year in a row. But as we know, 2020 is cracking plans.

So, the Rotary Club pivoted instead, steaming crabs right there at the stadium and handing them out in a drivethru line.

Keith Hutchins, a longtime crab feast attendee, didn’t hesitate to support the

reimagined crab feast. “It was a must.

And when I saw that it was ‘crab to-go,’ I said I’m in. I ordered a bushel right away,” Hutchins says.

From a dozen to that full bushel, every sale will help local charities, which can apply for grants following the event. “This event normally provides grants to 20 to 24 local charities and we want to keep that going,” Rotary Club President Frank Andracchi tells Bay Bulletin.

Leigh Rand, the club’s crab feast chairperson, admits, “We definitely thought about canceling it. We decided it was really important to stay in the community, and especially in this time that people would need this kind of funds.”

“They need money. Everybody needs money these days. And I’m lucky, I can help support charities,” Kathy Strouss told us as she picked up her crabs.

With 220 bushels sold, bagging, boxing, and delivering to waiting customers was no small feat. Chesapeake Seafood Caterers brought trailers with boilers that connect to huge pots. They spent three days catching and processing the crabs.

“Most people that buy their crabs don’t realize that someone had to go

BAY BULLETIN through them multiple times to make sure there wasn’t a dead crab or there wasn’t some sort of trash in the bushel basket,” said co-owner Adam Higgins.

After drivers checked into the stadium, they got a windshield tag to show what they’d bought and were then directed to a lane where they popped their trunks and volunteers loaded them up with crabs.

Every “guest” was sent home with corn, brown paper for the table, paper towels and mallets. “It’s actually kind of nice to be at my own house. This seems to work seamlessly, too,” says Hutchins.

Somewhere around $30,000 will be handed out to local charities thanks to this year’s event. It falls short by about $20,000 of a normal year, but as Andracchi points out, “That’s better than zero.”

The Rotary Club plans to return to full feast-mode in 2021, when they will officially celebrate the crab feast’s 75th anniversary.

10K FISH DEAD ON SEVERN RIVER DUE TO ISAIAS Dead fish have shown up en masse on the Severn River in the days following Tropical Storm Isaias.

Between 2,000 and 3,000 Atlantic menhaden died in Sullivan Cove immediately following the storm and another 7,500 surfaced in Lake Ogleton, near the mouth of the Severn, the next day.

Another couple thousand dead fish were reported near Chesapeake Harbour Marina, just north of Lake Ogleton.

The Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE) investigated the fish kills and spokesman Jay Apperson tells Bay Bulletin all three incidents were a result of anoxic bottom water intrusion.

The tropical storm’s strong winds mixed up the water column, bringing low-oxygen water from the bottom up to the top, where fish congregate.

As Severn River Association President Tom Guay explains, “Unfortunately, when Isaias rolled up the river, it caused an upswelling of the low-oxygen water that overcame the fish before they could swim away. They suffocated.”

Apperson describes the dismal scene MDE found: “Crabs were actively attempting to reach the shoreline to evade suffocation, and other species of fish (American eels, spot and killifish) were milling at the surface,” Apperson says.

After the tropical storm, the Anne Arundel County Health Department swiftly issued a No Swimming or Direct Contact Advisory, warning people not to swim, kayak, paddleboard or jet ski in county waterways for 48 hours after the storm. For select areas that experienced sewage overflows (Back Creek, Lake Ogleton, Black Walnut Creek and Fishing Creek, all in Annapolis) the direct contact advisory lasts a full seven days.

Local Artist Celebrates Quiet Waters in 30th Anniversary Poster

L

ocal artist Joe Barsin highlights the delights of what he calls “the playground of Annapolis” in a new poster to honor the 30th anniversary of (and raise funds for) Quiet Waters Park.

Making sure to capture all the elements the park offers was a challenge, but Barsin pulled from his personal connection to showcase what he loves.

“I walked the trails of Quiet Waters on dates with my future wife, Eva,” Barsin says. “We have played, skated

and kayaked with our boys while they were growing up. This poster is a celebration of Quiet Waters Park and what it has given to me.”

The park—which opened in September of 1990—attracts more than one million visitors a year. Its 300-plus acres are open year-round and feature a concert stage, wedding and event facilities, an ice-skating rink in the winter, paddlesports and even a dog beach in the warmer months.

Barsin’s designs may look familiar.

ter’s Fish for a Cure and more.

“Working with Quiet Waters art director Bill Martin, we decided we wanted to capture three things in the poster,” Barsin says. “The four seasons, a celebration of nature and the community as well as the activities people enjoy.”

Barsin chose the blue heron as the central element in the design. “Its natural beauty, soaring above the park is a celebration of nature,” Barsin says.

“The heron defines the composition of the quadrants of the four seasons.”

The poster is available for purchase in two sizes, an 11x17 is $5 and the larger 18x24 is $15. There are a lim-

ome historians will say that the Women’s Suffrage movement began in 1848 with a women’s rights convention held in Seneca Falls, New York.

Many suffragists view this meeting as the spark that lit the movement ablaze. But long before this historic milestone, there were many emboldened women paving the way towards equal rights—one of them, right here in Chesapeake country.

Visitors to Historic Saint Mary’s City can stand in the very place Margaret Brent boldly requested the right to vote.

Brent (1601-1671) was a colonist that settled in the New World in 1638 as a landowner from England, secured a land grant and engaged in trading and business ventures. She often appeared in court to help settle debts and on occasion acted on behalf of others including her brothers and eventually, Lord Baltimore. On his deathbed, Governor Leonard Calvert appointed her his executor and encouraged Brent to “take all and pay all.” His faith in Brent was unwavering, but Calvert’s brother, the Lord Baltimore, didn’t share the same convictions.

Brent was named Lord Baltimore’s attorney after Calvert’s death as an emergency act by the Provincial Court, since he was away in England and Calvert’s soldiers needed to be paid. To help ensure the well-being of the settlement and care for the needs of the soldiers Brent famously went before the assembly and demanded two votes, one for herself as a landowner, and the second as Lord Baltimore’s attorney. This is the first recorded instance of a woman in the New World requesting voting rights. The courts denied her request, not wanting to allow women the right to vote.

A new exhibit at Historic St. Mary’s City explores women’s rights, past, present, and future. The pop-up exhibition from the National Archives is called Rightfully Hers: American Women and the Vote, and commemorates the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment and highlights the relentless struggle of diverse activists throughout U.S. history to secure voting rights for all American women.

The 19th Amendment, ratified on August 18, 1920, granted American women the right to vote. But for many women, the 19th Amendment wasn’t the final piece of the puzzle.

Discrimination against minorities was still rampant. African Americans and the illiterate in the South were restricted by literacy tests and poll taxes.

Much of this was later remedied with

the passing of the Voting Rights Act in 1965 which banned racial discrimination in voting practices. The more recent Equal Rights Amendment, passed by the Senate in 1972, was never actually ratified.

The exhibit is located inside the Visitor Center at Historic St. Mary’s City.

Visitor Center hours of operation are currently Wednesday through Saturday, 10am-5pm. Social distancing is advised and masks should be worn when touring indoor exhibits.

Volunteer coordinator Ellen Fitzgerald hopes visitors will stop in to learn about the Suffrage movement. “We can’t stop learning just because we are stuck at home,” she said. “We hope they feel empowered to continue the work that women like Margaret Brent once started.” p

30TH ANNAPOLIS ARTWALK CONTINUES TO HIGHLIGHT ARTISTS, GALLERIES STORY BY STEVE ADAMS

A

nnapolis is an art lover’s dream town. The easily walkable downtown is home to no less than two dozen galleries and studios. The famous portraitist Charles Willson Peale spent many years working here for art patrons. Annual events draw both amateurs and professionals for inspiration and camaraderie. Local arts leaders weren’t going to let the coronavirus pandemic change that tradition.

Cynthia McBride, who owns McBride Gallery in downtown and Benfield Gallery in Severna Park, is one of the founders of the annual Annapolis ArtWalk, 8 • BAY WEEKLY • August 13 - August 20, 2020

which for 30 years has been highlighting the many local galleries and artists by hosting open houses and special events one night every year, free of charge. This year’s event is scheduled for Thurs., Aug. 20 (5-9pm).

The “walk” actually dates back to the 1980s, when a small group of the city’s ten or so gallery owners got together to discuss how they could raise awareness of and promote the Annapolis visual arts scene and their newest exhibits. They first tried hosting “A Round of Galleries” and quarterly open houses, but unfortunately experienced little success. Then, the 1990 relocation of McBride Gallery,

I’ve always hoped that there would be a broader impact as well, benefiting both residents and merchants by calling attention to new shows and boosting Annapolis’s reputation as not only a hub for history and maritime activities, but also a true cultural center.

In years past, artists like Stewart White have demonstrated their mediums for ArtWalk visitors.

Photo: McBride Gallery

— Cynthia McBride one of Annapolis’s oldest galleries, inspired the creation of the open house- (or open gallery) style event that’s taken place every August since.

“I was moving my gallery from 117 Main Street up the hill to the second block on August 1, 1990,” says McBride. “At that time all the ‘action’ in Annapolis was around City Dock and the bottom of Main Street, so I was trying to think of a way to let people know that we were in a new location. I had been reading about the popularity of art walks on the sunny West Coast and decided to rally the Annapolis galleries to help start an annual event, calling it Annual Annapolis Art Walk. And here we are 30 years later, still going strong.”

Now sponsored by The Annapolis Gallery Association, the walk has grown from fewer than ten galleries in its first year to an average of 20 (and a high of 24) in the three decades since, with a handful of galleries having participated every year. A map (see pg 7) helps you find all the locations.

And it’s far more than motivation to stretch your legs—ArtWalk aims to encourage the public to discover and explore galleries throughout what McBride calls “the small city with big art talent” by offering a one-night-only experience beyond that of a typical gallery visit.

“The primary goal is to host an enjoyable evening where the public can have fun visiting the galleries, socializing with friends and neighbors, and engaging with artists, meeting them, watching them demonstrate and explain how a painting is developed, and asking them questions,” says McBride.

The Annapolis Collection Gallery has been a stop on the ArtWalk since 1996. “One reason I stay involved is because for the past 30 years Cindy McBride has remained steadfast in making ArtWalk run smoothly year after year,” says owner Katherine Burke. “ArtWalk is fun because it’s a special, one-ofa-kind evening for not only Annapolis art lovers but also visitors from Philadelphia, DC, and NYC that it regularly attracts.”

Things will be a bit different this year due to COVID-19. McBride reports that each gallery will have signs stating their limited capacity and visitors must practice safe social distancing. Yet there will be no shortage of galleries, nor types of art, for the public to experience.

Gallery 57 West is the newest addition to ArtWalk.

BIG ART C O N T I N U E D

Artists working in oil, watercolor, ceramics, woodturning, sculpture, jewelry, handcrafts and more will be demonstrating their skills. Some galleries host musical guests to boot.

Annapolis Marine Art has been part of the festivities since the beginning. As one of the oldest continuously operating galleries in town, owner Jeff Schaub sees ArtWalk as a chance to experience great Chesapeake-themed art. “We’re very proud of our artist group, and we will be featuring a collection of John Barber original paintings from a private collection. Barber has always been our contributing artist; he is considered the artist of Chesapeake themes and traditions, shore lore, historic preservation—all are his métier. Patrons can view some special things, and hob-nob with people whose interests correspond with theirs.

Chesapeake art is a well-loved tradition and it commemorates some of the richest natural resource-laden areas in the world.”

McBride says that exposing locals and visitors to the depth of artistic talents within the city is a benefit to the entire region.

“I’ve always hoped that there would be a broader impact as well, benefiting both residents and merchants by calling attention to new shows and boosting Annapolis’s reputation as not only a hub for history and maritime activities but also a true cultural center.”

Whether you’re experiencing ArtWalk for the first or 30th time, there’s likely never been a better year to escape the physical and psychological stress of COVID-19 through art. As McBride says, “Just accomplishing our goal of hosting the ArtWalk at all this year feels momentous, and we can’t wait to celp ebrate.”

SPORTING LIFE

FISHFINDER: The most important note is that rockfish season is closed August 16 through 31. Rockfish are finally moving into the areas around the Bay Bridge and south. Chumming and jigging for rockfish at Podickery, the Bridge, Hacketts and Eastern Bay is beginning to produce well. In the meantime, bluefish have reached all the way up to the Bridge as have Spanish mackerel. Quick retrieves with shiny, flashing objects will score well with both species; bluefish must be 9 inches and Spanish 14 inches. White perch of decent size have arrived locally, and spotted seatrout apparently abound from Point Lookout south. Crabs are still clambering about and summertime is about to end. Don’t miss out, get out there as soon as you can!

Dennis Doyle enjoys night fishing.

Chasing Stripers in the Dark M y line hissed through the guides as it shot out in a satisfying cast, low over the barely visible night waters.

Throwing about 30 degrees off the tidal current direction, I was working the submerged end of a long, boulder jetty in about 4 feet of water with a 3/0 sized streamer fly, letting it sink, swing through and straighten out about 70 feet away.

During daylight hours the jetty area always held a good number of small perch scattered around it and as evening fell the little guys moved closer and closer to the big rocks for safety.

They were well aware that as visibility faded, striped bass would begin closing in to search for careless youngsters. I

was hoping a big rockfish would mistake my streamer for a tasty yearling.

In my distant, far more energetic youth my preference had always been for the 8-weight fly rod with a floating line for night fishing and an all-black bucktail Lefty’s Deceiver streamer that I tied extra bulky. I often tangled with 15 to 20 rock or seatrout during a long, dark evening with not another boat on the water.

In later years, I discovered light, medium action bait casting rigs with a dark Bass Assassin, soft-bodied shad threaded onto an eighth-ounce jig head or onto a lightly weighted worm hook.

I could cover large areas with little effort, slowly and patiently bumping those lures cross current and over

the rocky bottoms that bordered the jetties. It was deadly on those same perch-hunting rockfish.

Years after that, I would also begin to revel in using various crankbaits and jerkbaits during the dark on those same lightweight bait casting rigs. I was able to throw the lures greater distances and work larger areas just as effectively. The one thing that remained constant over the years, however, was that, almost always, I was the only one there.

The memories have faded only a little but the knowledge that the time of year is happening right on schedule remains. The remnants of the deluge of our current tropical storm may slow the event for another week or so but the nighttime action season is upon us.

Getting on site before last light is always a good idea. Locations always look different as the daylight fails and it will take time to get situated just right with the current as you quietly anchor.

It will also give you time for a few practice casts to get the rhythm of your fly rod casts just right, or if you’re using spin or casting tackle, just how much effort it takes to hit the sweet spots.

Noise discipline is absolutely necessary. Stripers and seatrout will flush out of any area at the first unnatural

sound disturbance. Don’t let landed fish flop on the deck or in your fish box.

Any use of artificial light should be only in absolute necessity. Red filters on pocket lights will help with maintaining your night vision while you tie on flies or unhook your quarry.

Never fish an area you haven’t experienced a few times in daylight, be aware of the bottom contours, especially submerged rocks and always have communication devices handy, both marine and personal. Let someone know where you’ll be fishing and if that changes, tell someone.

Never run your skiff in darkness faster than the distance you can see in front of you. Fouling a crab pot float can be a serious problem under many circumstances but it’s worse when you can’t see anything. Channel markers and information buoys are difficult to see at night, even lighted navigation signs can be invisible at the wrong angle and floating debris is an always unwelcome surprise.

A partner on board is always wise if you can find anyone willing to venture forth in the blackness. I’ve always found those individuals rare, unfortunately, but always appreciated. You’ll also quickly discover the fish are extra wild and explosive in the dark. p.

Ebony jewelwing damselfly

Finding Jewels Along a Stream hile walking around a stream at the Glendening Nature Preserve in Lothian, a bright shiny damselfly seems to lead the way up the trail. It would fly 10 to 20 feet and land, seemingly waiting for me to catch up. This went on for quite a while, over 500 feet, and I was able to take several photos.

A damselfly differs from a dragonfly because its wings will fold next to its body and its eyes are on each side of its head. They also tend to be thinner and smaller than a dragonfly.

The damselfly that I was following was an ebony jewelwing. They are black with brilliant blue-green markings on the wings and body. The female is paler than the male and has rectangular white patches at the tips of its wings. They are some of the larger species of the damselfly family and are easily spotted as they slowly fly while looking for insects to eat. The jewelwing lives along freshwater streams and occasionally lakes in the

W

eastern U.S. It is more commonly found in older forested areas with dense vegetation next to the streams.

They are rarely out in the bright sunshine.

The damselfly spends most of its life in freshwater. In early summer, a female will lay 600 eggs underwater, attached to plants. The young will eat other aquatic insects, grow and in the late spring of the following year, emerge from the water, break through a hardened exoskeleton and become an insect with beautiful wings. The genus name for these damselflies, Calopteryx, is derived from the Greek word kalos, meaning beautiful, and ptery, meaning winged.

Seeing the ebony jewelwing at the Glendening Nature Preserve was a real treat. I have also seen them along streams in western Maryland, on the Gunpowder River, and along the Susquehanna River. ‫ﵭ‬

Lovely Lobelias: A Favorite of Pollinators A s I write this, I’m sitting at the edge of my garden watching a hummingbird chase a goldfinch menacingly away from his favorite flowers, our native mid-Atlantic plants, the great blue lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica) and the cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis).

The vibrant red of the cardinal flower is even more vibrant than the bird it’s named after. This plant’s natural range is New Brunswick to Minnesota and south to the Gulf of Mexico.

It likes to grow in moist to wet soil in sun to partial shade. It grows 24 to 48 inches tall with up to 50 1½-inch long crimson flowers along the 12- to 24inch long stalk in late summer.

It attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. The great ash sphinx moth drinks nectar from cardinal flowers with its 86-inch long tongue.

Cardinal flower grows easily from seed and naturalizes freely in a garden where there is very moist soil and lots of light.

Like many wetland species, cardinal flower reaches its greatest stature in saturated soils in full sun. A wet ditch area around your house would be ideal for growing cardinal flower.

Cardinal flower hybridizes readily with great blue lobelia to produce flowers that are pink, purple and

16 • BAY WEEKLY • August 13 - August 20, 2020

magenta. Coming up on a wild stand of cardinal flower next to a pond is an exhilarating sight.

The great blue lobelia also likes moist to wet soil in sun to partial sun and grows 24 to 36 inches tall and blooms in late summer with sapphire blue flowers. The hummingbirds and the sphinx moth love the flowers’ nectar. The three-pointed petals of the flower that make up the lower lip are marked with white. The plants are beautiful and relatively easy to grow, tolerating drier areas than their red cousins.

There are many hybrids between the two species. Bumblebees are the most frequent visitor and primary pollinators. When they land on the flower, they push the style and filament column out of the way, turn their bodies 180 degrees and enter the flower’s corolla and transfer pollen to the next flower. Digger bees, yellow-faced bees, green sweat bees and small carpenter bees feed on the pollen and nectar of the great blue lobelia.

Introduce lobelias to your garden and welcome lots of pollinators at the same time. ‫ﵭ‬

She suspected that her mother’s forgetfulness was getting worse, but she allowed herself to dismiss it rather than confront the growing problem. Kay and her daughter Sam (Bella Heathcote: Strange Angel) journey to their family estate hoping the whole thing is a misunderstanding.

When they arrive, they find the home is nearly unrecognizable. Black mold crawls up the walls and lurks in the closets, strange new locks are installed on the doors, and rooms are filled with filthy clutter and rotting food. It’s worse than Kay imagined, and she’s ashamed she didn’t realize her mother had deteriorated so greatly.

When Edna returns home, filthy and unsure of where she was, Kay and Sam are horrified. Kay ponders putting Edna in a care facility. Sam finds the idea of strangers looking after her grandmother monstrous, and volunteers to move in and look after Edna herself. It’s a touching gesture, but as Edna’s erratic behavior continues, both Kay and Sam begin to wonder if something else is plaguing their loved one.

Is there a more sinister explanation for what’s happening to Edna or are both Sam and Kay just desperate to deny reality?

Tense, stunning and incredibly moving, Relic is a master allegory for the horrible, unavoidable things we inherit from our loved ones. Do we cherish the relics our family leaves us or do we pretend they don’t exist until we’re forced to deal with them? Co-writer/ director Natalie Erika James offers a stunning feature debut with this atmospheric horror movie.

James’ film doesn’t have a traditional monster—it’s much scarier than some guy in a hockey mask. If you’re hoping for a knife-wielding maniac or demon, Relic will likely disappoint.

The villain of James’ film is mental decay, and the horror derived is from watching the person you love slowly rot away. As such, this is a horror film that doesn’t employ the hackneyed

From left: Robyn Nevin, Emily Mortimer and Bella Heathcote in Relic. tricks of the genre. Relic doesn’t have any jump scares or loud music cues.

James instead slowly builds the tension between the three women at the center of the film. The creeping sense of dread fills every room as the women wander the halls.

The house is a metaphor for Edna’s decaying mental state. Black mold creeps up the walls, staining both the woman and the drywall. Edna tells Kay that she stays in the house because it holds all her memories. But the house is falling apart, walls peeling and random piles of family photos and memories covered by years of dust. Edna is lost in the walls of her own home, muttering to herself as she tries to find her way.

The stress of the situation is brilliantly executed as well. The sound design is filled with odd rumbling noises and high-pitched squeals. The house seems alive, creaking as it closes in around the women. The black mold that stains the house begins creeping onto Edna’s body as well, changing her body and making her into something Kay and Sam don’t recognize. It’s a beautiful, devastating metaphor for loving a per-

son who is deteriorating mentally.

At the heart of the film is the relationship between the generations. As the matriarch, Nevin gives a heartbreaking performance. Edna is a vibrant, funny woman at times, but as night falls, she becomes a muttering, still creature that haunts the halls. Though she tries to display a brave front for her daughter and granddaughter, she’s clearly terrified of whatever is happening to her.

As Edna’s guilt-ridden daughter, Mortimer shines. Kay had a complicated relationship with her mother and she’s spent years trying to avoid acknowledging the changes in Edna.

But now she fears that she’s done real harm to her mother. Her increasing stress and helplessness drive the film.

Moving, creepy and ultimately a brilliant parable, Relic is a wonderful debut film from a fascinating new filmmaker. Though not scary in the classical sense, there is some palpable terror at the root of James’ movie.

Sometimes the scariest thing to face is the harsh reality of life.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY

BY ROB BREZNY

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Motivational speaker Les Brown says his mission in life is to help people become uncomfortable with their mediocrity. That same mission is suitable for many of you Rams, as well.

And I suspect you’ll be able to generate interesting fun and good mischief if you perform it in the coming weeks. Here’s a tip on how to make sure you do it well: Don’t use shame or derision as you motivate people to be uncomfortable with their mediocrity. A better approach is to be a shining example that inspires them to be as bright as you are.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus musician and visual artist Brian Eno has a practical, down-to-earth attitude about making beautiful things, which he has done in abundance. He says that his goal is not to generate wonderful creations nonstop—that’s not possible—but rather to always be primed to do his best when inspiration strikes. In other words, it’s crucial to tirelessly hone his craft, to make sure his skills are constantly at peak capacity. I hope you’ve been approaching your own labors of love with that in mind, Taurus. If you have, you’re due for creative breakthroughs in the coming weeks. The diligent efforts you’ve invested in cultivating your talents are about to pay off. If, on the other hand, you’ve been a bit lazy about detail-oriented discipline, correct that problem now. There’s still time to get yourself in top shape.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In his 2010 album My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy, Gemini musician Kanye West confesses the decadent and hedonist visions that fascinate and obsess him. Personally, I’m not entertained by the particular excesses he claims to indulge in; they’re generic and unoriginal and boring. But I bet that the beautiful dark twisted fantasies simmering in your imagination, Gemini, are more unique and intriguing. In accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to spend quality time in the coming weeks diving in and exploring those visions in glorious detail. Get to know them better.

Embellish them. Meditate on the feelings they invoke and the possibility that they have deeper spiritual meanings. (P.S. But don’t act them out, at least not now.)

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Make all your decisions based on how hilarious it would be if you did it,” advises Cancerian actor Aubrey Plaza. I wish it were that simple.

How much more fun we might all have if the quest for amusement and laughter were among our main motivating principles. But no, I don’t recommend that you always determine your course of action by what moves will generate the most entertainment and mirth. Having said that, though, I do suspect the next few weeks may in fact be a good time to experiment with using Plaza’s formula.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In the dictionary, the first definition of “magic” is “the art of producing illusions as entertainment by the use of sleight of hand and deceptive devices.” A far more interesting definition, which is my slight adjustment of an idea by occultist Aleister Crowley, doesn’t appear in most dictionaries. Here it is: “Magic is the science and art of causing practical changes to occur in accordance with your will—under the rigorous guidance of love.” According to my analysis of the astrological omens, the latter definition could and should be your specialty during the next four weeks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “The soul, like the moon, is new, and always new again,” wrote 14th-century mystic poet Lalleswari. I will amend her poetic formulation, however. The fact is that the soul, unlike the moon, is always new in different ways; it doesn’t have a predictable pattern of changing as the moon does. That’s what makes the soul so mysterious and uncanny. No matter how devotedly we revere the soul, no matter how tenderly we study the soul, it’s always beyond our grasp. It’s forever leading us into unknown realms that teem with new challenges and delights. I invite you to honor and celebrate these truths in the coming weeks, Virgo. It’s time to exult in the shiny dark riddles of your soul.

lent time to take that advice. How might you go about doing it? Well, you could have a long conversation with your deep psyche—and see if you can plumb hidden secrets about what gives it sublime pleasure. You could seek out new ways to experience euphoria and enchantment—with an emphasis on ways that also make you smarter and healthier. You might also take inventory of your current repertoire of bliss-inducing strategies—and cultivate an enhanced capacity to get the most out of them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Are you ready to make the transition from slow, deep, subtle, and dark to fast, high, splashy, and bright?

Are you interested in shifting your focus from behind-the-scenes to right up front and totally out in the open? Would it be fun and meaningful for you to leave behind the stealthy, smoldering mysteries and turn your attention to the sweet, blazing truths? All these changes can be yours—and more. To get the action started, jump up toward the sky three times, clicking your heels together during each mid-leap.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “I have one talent, and that is the capacity to be tremendously surprised,” writes Libran author Diane Ackerman. I advise you to foster that talent, too, in the weeks ahead. If you’re feeling brave, go even further. Make yourself as curious as possible. Deepen your aptitude for amazements and epiphanies. Cultivate an appreciation for revelations and blessings that arrive from outside your expectations. To the degree that you do these things, the wonderments that come your way will tend to be enlivening and catalytic; unpredictability will be fun and educational.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Greenland is a mostly autonomous territory within the nation of Denmark. In 2019, US President Donald Trump announced that his government was interested in buying the massive island, describing it as “a large real estate deal” that would add considerable strategic value to his country. A satirical story in *The New Yorker* subsequently claimed that Denmark responded with a counter-offer, saying it wasn’t interested in the deal, but “would be interested in purchasing the United States in its entirety, with the exception of its government.” I offer this as an example for you to be inspired by. The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to flip the script, turn the tables, reverse the roles, transpose the narrative, and switch the rules of the game.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Author and theologian Frederick Buechner writes, “If we are to love our neighbors, before doing anything else we must see our neighbors. With our imagination as well as our eyes, we must see not just their faces but also the life behind and within their faces.” The coming weeks will be prime time for you to heed Buechner’s advice, Scorpio. You’re in a phase when you’ll have extra power to understand and empathize with others. Taking full advantage of that potential will serve your selfish aims in profound ways, some of which you can’t imagine yet.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Author Doris Lessing told us, “It is our stories that will recreate us.” Whenever we’re hurt or confused or demoralized, she suggested, we need to call on the imagination to conjure up a new tale for ourselves. “It is the storyteller, the dream-maker, the myth-maker, that is our phoenix,” she believed. The fresh narratives we choose to reinvent ourselves may emerge from our own dreams, meditations, or fantasies. Or they might flow our way from a beloved movie or song or book. I suspect you’re ready for this quest, Pisces.

Create a new saga for yourself.

COMPILED BY ANDREWS McMEEL SYNDICATION

Government in Action About 176 Rhode Island taxpayers waiting for their refund checks got a surprise when the checks they received in late July arrived bearing the signatures of “Mickey Mouse” and “Walt Disney” instead of state officials. State Department of Revenue chief of staff Jade Borgeson told WPRI that the division of taxation uses the signatures on dummy checks for internal testing, and the test image files were mistakenly added to real checks. “Corrected checks will be reissued to impacted taxpayers within one week,” Borgeson said.

to find a young man sleeping in a car parked behind a motel on Aug. 2, “since motels have rooms, with beds, that you can sleep in,” said Capt. Tom Rummel in a tweet. Upon running the car’s license plate, he continued, the officers found it had been stolen in an armed carjacking, and “there on the front seat was a sawed-off shotgun, just like the victim said was used yesterday!” KKTV reported the sleepy thief, a juvenile, was taken into custody and the car was returned to its owner.

Police Report A 26-year-old man in Plymouth, England, was detained on July 9 after officers working nearby heard a commotion and looked up to see the man struggling with a seagull and biting it. “He sunk his teeth into it before throwing it to the floor,” a police spokesperson told Plymouth Live. The man told police the seagull had attacked him, trying to get his McDonald’s meal, and also “volunteered...that he was under the influence of drugs ... The seagull was clearly injured by the incident but flew off before we were able to check on its welfare,” police said. The man was taken to a hospital for treatment.

• Edward Thomas Schinzing, 32, was charged July 28 with arson for allegedly setting fires inside the Justice Center in Portland, Oregon, on May 29, beginning two months of protest in that city. The Oregonian reported the shirtless Schinzing stood out among about 30 people who broke into the building around 10:59 p.m., vandalizing offices and setting fires, because of the large tattoo of his last name clearly visible across his shoulders on surveillance images, according to court documents. Schinzing, who was on probation at the time for domestic violence assault, is being held at the Justice Center.

• For her birthday, 5-year-old Macey Clemens of Parker, Colorado, went on her first horseback ride and was hooked, so she wrote her wish for a pet horse on a balloon, signed her name and let it soar.

On Aug. 2, Jennifer Houghton, who owns seven horses and lives about an hour away, found the balloon stuck in a fence, and it wasn’t long before the two found each other through social media. “I feel like every little girl should get to enjoy the horse world,” Houghton told KOAA. “I couldn’t get her a pet horse, but at least try and help her ride and make somewhat

An unnamed man in Cairns, North Queensland, Australia, posted notices offering a $100 prize to the person able to best impersonate Chewbacca from “Star Wars,” but the contest turned out to be a hoax designed to harass the woman who dumped him. The posters listed the woman’s phone number and invited contestants to call and deliver their best Chewbacca roar. The woman, identified only as Jessica, told 9News: “I’m getting phone calls at really strange hours of the night. ... I thought it was quite funny, actually, a good joke.”

However, she drew the line when the ex abandoned his car, without tires, in the driveway of her home, blocking her in.

“The police ... are going to do something about it,” she said.

Nature Calls An Amazon delivery driver in Nuthall, Nottingham, England, is out of a job after Sharon Smith, 53, discovered him defecating in her back garden in late July.

Smith said she saw the man run toward her garden and went to investigate. “I asked what the heck he was doing,” Smith told Metro News, “and he just remained pooing whilst asking me what my problem was—the cheek of it.” The driver told police he wasn’t feeling well and was desperate, and he didn’t realize he was in a private garden. Smith agreed to not press charges as long as he cleaned up the mess and his employer was informed; Amazon promised a gift voucher as a goodwill gesture.

After pub owner Steve Cotten jokingly announced in July that the beer garden at the Poltimore Arms in Devon, England, would become the Yarde Down International Airport for the summer, offering sightseeing flights, he was surprised to receive an official letter from Exmoor National Park Authority’s planning officer expressing concern about the change: “We have a duty to look into such matters to understand if there is a breach, and if so, whether any action is necessary.”

Devon Live reported Cotten responded promptly in a social media post, saying, “All long haul flights have been suspended forthwith...We apologise for any delays, and remind you that the departure lounge facilities are still open.” The park authority replied with good humor, and the taps remain open.

Domino’s pizza restaurants in New Zealand were forced to end a promotion to give free pizza to women named Karen “that aren’t, well, Karens,” the promotion announcement read. United Press International reported that customers named Karen were invited to fill out an application for one of 100 free pizzas, but people objected online, suggesting the chain offer food to minorities or people who have been impacted by COVID-19. “We wanted to bring a smile to customers who are doing the right thing—Karen the nurse, Karen the teacher,” the company posted on Facebook, but “people interpreted this in a different way.”

The anime character-decorated airplane is scheduled to take off from Taipei Taoyuan Airport and fly over the coasts of Taiwan for three hours at 25,000 feet, then land again at the same airport.

A July 29 headline in the Ken-Ton Bee in Kenmore, New York, caught the attention of The Buffalo News: “Leprechaun spotted looting cars on Hamilton Boulevard.” Kenmore Police Capt. A.J. Kiefer told The News a white male with orange hair and wearing a green shirt (and “possibly plaid pants”) was reported to be looting vehicles on the street July 23.

Police arrested the 36-year-old, who measured 5 feet 11 inches and had someone else’s debit card, but no pot of gold, according to Kiefer. He was charged with petit larceny.

How many two or more letter words can you make in 2 minutes from the letters in: Balderdash

Here's a word dating back to the mid-15th century originally referring to adult beverages made with incompatible mixtures of alcohol, like wine with beer or brandy with junevor (gin). The word eventually became known to mean 'pretentious, bombastic, and senseless prose.' You could substitute, piffle, fiddle-faddle, hokum, bunk, hogwash, nonsense, guff, drivel, rot, and garbage. Or you could not be pretentious or bombastic by adding senseless prose.

Scoring: 31 - 40 = Aloft; 26 - 30 = Ahead; 21 - 25 = Aweigh; 16 - 20 = Amidships; 11 - 15 = Aboard; 05 - 10 = Adrift; 01 - 05 = Aground

The CryptoQuip below is a quote in substitution code, where A could equal R, H could equal P, etc. One way to break the code is to look for repeated letters. E, T, A, O, N and I are the most often used letters. A single letter is usually A or I; OF, IS and IT are common 2-letter words; and THE and AND are common 3-letter words. Good luck!
