Celebrating Why We Live Here

I

t’s mid-May, and as I write this, the temperature has shown little interest in climbing out of the 60s for the last week. Wind, rain, and even an astounding hailstorm pummeled my neighborhood for Mother’s Day weekend, so the flipflops and shorts I so gleefully tossed on a week or two ago went right back in the lonely part of my closet, where they spent the long pandemic winter.

I’m here to assure you: though it may not have felt like it lately, summer is on the way! Boaters are getting back on the water and rockfish season is well underway (ask our Sporting Life columnist, Dennis Doyle, how that’s going so far—page 17).

And as our cover story (page 8) proclaims, summer camp season is looming large. If you’re a parent who took a waitand-see approach amid all the uncertainty of the pandemic recovery this spring, things are looking up! And now is your last chance to make plans for camp.

With some school-aged children on the cusp of being eligible for COVID-19 vaccines, there’s more assurance than ever that camps this summer will be safe. Some have only recently firmed up their operating plans in recent months, offering many new options for families.

Other camps have only limited numbers of slots left. As you’ll find inside these pages, the offerings are fabulously fun and wide-ranging. I will happily take a week off from editing CBM’s publications to try out marine biology, boat handling, archaeology, or ceramics.

Unfortunately, nobody is going to let me sneak away to nature camp or the

horseback riding ring when there are weekly print deadlines to hit. And we’re even busier than usual here at CBM because we’re celebrating a milestone this month: Chesapeake Bay Magazine’s 50th anniversary!

First published in May 1971 by founders Dick and Dixie Goertemiller, the magazine was an influential guide to boating and cruising destinations—a way to stay in the know about Chesapeake Bay happenings and how to get to waterfront attractions long before there was Google or GPS. It evolved into a far-reaching regional magazine that tells the (often little-known) stories of the Bay, supporting its modern-day

mission of “Celebrating Why We Live Here”.

The CBM team is proud to be the stewards of this wonderful tradition in Chesapeake Country, further expanding from a print-only magazine to Bay-focused digital news and video storytelling. And most recently, we added Bay Weekly, a newspaper with plenty of its own traditions that was already doing a great job of celebrating why we live here.

So cheers to 50 years of Chesapeake Bay Magazine, older sister of CBM Bay Weekly! Watch for some exciting collaborations between the two publications we have in the works as we move towards the next 50 years. p —MEG WALBURN VIVIANO, CBM EDITORIAL DIRECTOR

ryndley Dorn, 6, of California, met fellow “unicorn”, Levi the mini horse, at Greenwell Foundation’s May Open Barn in Hollywood this week. The Greenwell Foundation is a nonprofit that offers nature camps and equestrian programs accessible to those with and without disabilities at their facility in Greenwell State Park.

The May Open Barn welcomed over

100 guests to the farm last week to frolic with the “unicorns” as well as meet the two newest members of the Greenwell family, goats Billy and Taco. The foundation’s free open barns are held the first Saturday of every month from 9am to noon. In June, the foundation will host pony rides (for a fee) and outdoor storytime with friends from the Lexington Park Library. For more information, visit www.greenwellfoundation.org. p

FOUR PEOPLE RESCUED AFTER BOAT COLLISION SOUTH OF BAY BRIDGE

Good Samaritan, Police Diver Speak Out

BY CHERYL COSTELLO

L

ife jackets, flares, a skilled police diver, and some brave fellow boaters: Those four factors are the reasons a boatful of people is alive and safe.

Their cuddy cruiser collided with another boat and overturned, sending three men into the water and trapping a fourth man under the boat. The collision took place about half a mile south of the

Bay Bridge, closer to the Anne Arundel County side. Boater Jason Dowgiallo, his wife, and a friend were heading back from fishing on his 24-foot Cobia near Thomas Point Lighthouse when they saw flares in the distance. Dowgiallo took them seriously.

“That means you need help. Flares aren’t taken lightly,” he told Bay Bulletin the morning after the rescue.

It was a good thing the anglers re-

sponded, as they found an overturned boat. “The two were standing on top of the hull, so the two climbed over the bow.

I pulled the bow up, I tied a rope to the bow so we would stay with the boat and then we got another rope and tied it to the other gentleman and pulled him around to the back of the boat, then pulled him up with the ladder,” Dowgiallo explained.

RESCUE from page 4

Three of the four boaters in the capsized boat were safely pulled aboard Dowgiallo’s boat. But one man was trapped underneath the boat, with just enough air to breathe. “Turns out it had a cabin in the front and he was in the cabin, and the cabin had an air pocket.

He was inside of there. That was keeping the boat afloat, but he was also too afraid to come out from under it.”

Dowgiallo’s friend went into the water and tried to free the victim, but couldn’t reach him in the cabin space. It took a Maryland Natural Resources Police diver, identified as Officer First Class Brian Hunt, to rescue the man, who was taken to Sandy Point State Park and flown to Shock Trauma with symptoms of hypothermia. He was released the next day.

Natural Resources Police confirm the boat capsized as a result of a crash with another boat. The Anne Arundel County Fire Department, who responded to the call along with the Annapolis City Fireboat, says the second boat was disabled, but the people on board were not injured.

As we approach National Safe Boating Week later this month, Dowgiallo says his story is a lesson in safety. “Take flares seriously. If you see someone and they need help … you might not want to tow somebody all the way back to shore, but go check on them and make sure they’re okay.”

Make sure you have flares as well as life jackets on board your boat. All four of the survivors in the incident were wearing life jackets.

NAVAL ACADEMY PLANS FOR POSSIBLE NEW SEAWALL TO FIGHT SEA LEVEL RISE

BY BRENDA WINTRODE

T

he U.S. Naval Academy’s famed seawall, an Annapolis waterfront landmark and popular tourist stroll, needs shoring up. Naval Support Activity Annapolis is making plans to repair and restore approximately 19,334 linear feet of the military installation’s seawall and shoreline along the Severn River, according to a U.S. Department of the Navy correspondence.

The projects would reinforce deteriorating structures and protect the larger campus from the threats of climate change, such as extreme weather events, sea level rise, storm surge, and land subsidence, according to an environmental

assessment report.

Of the four proposed remedies, Navy officials preferred an option that would provide structural reinforcement against weather extremes, according to an April correspondence signed by the U.S. Navy Commandant, Rear Admiral Carl A. Lahti. The plan would fortify the grounds against 50-year and 75-year storms and 75-year predicted sea level rise.

Each subsequent recommendation provided less protection, and one option was to do nothing at all.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, in its most extreme modeling, predicts sea level rise could reach over 11 feet in Annapolis in the year 2100.

Since 1950, Maryland’s sea level has risen 10 inches. In Annapolis, the rate of sea level increase has sped up to one inch

every five years, according to NOAA. In March, the Naval Academy’s superintendent told the U.S. House Subcommittee on Defense that campus roads would experience daily flooding by the year 2050, and storm surge could reach 4.2 feet, enough to flood parking lots in the middle of campus.

Excess water threatens daily operations of the academy through high-tide flooding of sidewalks, building entry points and road closures, Vice Admiral Sean Buck said.

The stretch of shoreline and walls being considered for repair include the Lower Yard along the Severn River, College Creek, Spa Creek, and Santee Basin; portions of the Upper Yard along the Severn River and College Creek; and portions of shoreline on North Severn See SEAWALL on page 7

Help Wanted Short-staffed service industry calls for employees

BY KATHY KNOTTS

A

s pandemic restrictions are lifted at restaurants locally and nationwide, a vaccinated and hungry public is ready to dine out again. But for an industry hit hard by coronavirus-driven restrictions over the past 13 months, getting back to normal is proving more difficult than expected. Businesses have more jobs than employees.

The national unemployment rate was 6.1 percent in April, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. While they recorded notable job gains in leisure and hospitality from March to April, it may not be enough to sustain the service industry.

Restaurant owners say a shortage of workers returning to the service industry is forcing them to make tough choices as the busy summer dining season approaches.

For Anthony Clarke of the Irish Restaurant Company a reduction in staff has meant a reduction in the days and hours his restaurants will be open.

Clarke made the decision last weekend to close Brian Boru in Severna Park and Killarney House in Davidsonville on Mondays, and drop lunch hours on Tuesdays at Brian Boru. Galway Bay in Annapolis and Pirate’s Cove in Galesville will continue to operate as usual.

“It’s a nationwide crisis that affects many industries,” says Clarke. “I have 30 positions that I could fill today. Normally I’d have 100 applicants for the four restaurants. When I checked the other day, I have eight.”

Clarke blames a government that continues to supplement unemployment, saying that the work force finds it more profitable to not work. “The crisis has forced the workers that we do have—loyal employees—that couldn’t go on unemployment for whatever reason, these dedicated people that want to work are working doubles on backto-back days.”

The American Rescue Plan Act of

6 • BAY WEEKLY • May 13 - May 20, 2021

2021 was signed into law on March 11.

ARPA extended several programs that were created by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act from last March and extended by the Continued Assistance for Unemployed Workers (CAUW) Act in December. Under ARPA, these programs are in effect in Maryland until the week ending September 4, 2021.

“We know the labor shortage is hitting our service industry sectors very hard right now,” says Kelly Robertson-Slagle, director of the Calvert County Department of Economic Development.

“The situation is compounded by the fact that many of these businesses are trying to ramp up following a year of COVID while also trying to ensure adequate staffing during the peak of our tourism season.” Calvert County directs prospective workers to resources like the College of Southern Maryland, the Tri-County Council, the Maryland Department of Labor and the Arc of Southern Maryland.

The Irish Restaurant Company’s current solution is to hold hiring open houses to encourage people to walk in and apply, but turnout for these has been low as well. One held at Pirate’s Cove last month netted just three applicants, one of whom was a 14-year-old looking for a first job. “He turned out to be a very loyal and reliable worker and when school is out, he will get more hours,” said Clarke.

Clarke is also offering referral bonuses of $50 to $100 to those who bring in new employees. “I am taking calls immediately, hiring on the spot, you can start today if you want to work.”

For the Davis family, owners of Edgewater Restaurant, staffing isn’t currently a problem. “Most of my employees wanted to return to work. I had a few leave, but luckily we hired seven new young employees to fill the positions. Our older employees are mainly family members so we are in a different position than most area restaurants.

I do hear about many of my friends’ restaurants struggling to get employees due to them making more money with the supplement on unemployment.”

Brian Smith of Rip’s Country Inn in Bowie bemoans potential employees

“I am taking calls immediately, hiring on the spot, you can start today if you want to work.”

—ANTHONY CLARKE OF THE IRISH RESTAURANT COMPANY

who don’t show up for an interview or return after their first day. “Rip’s is definitely having a hard time staffing.

We are looking for at least three servers, two bartenders, a dishwasher, and line cook. We have received roughly 10 applications for server and bartender combined, three showed for interviews and one has actually started,” says Smith. “We have honestly just been ghosted with no reason for not accepting the position offered ... I really wish we had more people interested in the service industry right now.”

Clarke says after a busy Mother’s Day weekend, when he had staff working from 9am until the last order, he knew something had to change. “I closed the kitchen at 7pm, just to give them time to recover ... I’m trying to protect them.

They work long hours and when you do it for too long it gets really tiring,” he says. “You need a lot of energy to work in restaurants and to work with the public. It’s mentally and physically stressful. It’s a tough job.”

Other parts of the service industry share in the struggle. Lucia Tucker, owner of Cleaning Maid Easy in Deale, has seen a “significant drop in the number of applicants since March 2020.

Obviously, with COVID we knew that there would be a natural and logical fear of getting out and into homes or businesses to clean.”

Tucker says she is always hiring, running help wanted ads consistently, offering sign-on bonuses and referral bonuses, plus emphasizing the “career-oriented positions” she offers. She says an online ad that used to bring her SEAWALL from page 5

along the Severn River and Yard Patrol Basin, according to the environmental assessment from 2019.

The report recommends installing “hardened structures” to reinforce vulnerable land-water boundaries. Hardened structures could include bulkhead, rip rap, sheet pilings or some combination of the three. Sheet pilings are interlocking sections of wall that can be made from a variety of materials such as steel, vinyl or composite.

Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Washington in November 2020 announced it had awarded a contract to Swift Rivers Versar JV, an Alaska based and Native Alaskan-owned engineering and environmental services company, to

20 applicants now only nets her one a month.

“Hiring has been very difficult, yes.

We have seen an increase in inquiries for cleaning, more intensely now than I have in 18 years. This sudden increase has put me in a frenzy to find more people more quickly, which is why the focus on not being able to find people is in the spotlight. Just today, we had a person who was starting at $15 per hour, just not show up for their first day of work.”

Yet, Tucker remains hopeful. “As more people receive their vaccines, as families are able to utilize daycares, in-person school and child care, as well as a change to unemployment funding, we will see a great influx of individuals ready to get back out into the workforce.”

The broader hospitality industry is feeling a similar pinch. Enough that Visit Annapolis & Anne Arundel County (VAAAC) and Anne Arundel Workforce Development Corporation (AAWDC) are teaming up to host a virtual hiring event in June to help hospitality industry employers connect with qualified workers as they gear up for increased business following the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions.

“Every sector within our industry was affected by the coronavirus pandemic, and tourism in every community across the nation has suffered … As a destination marketing organization, Visit Annapolis & Anne Arundel County works to drive visitors—and the associated economic growth — to local businesses and partners, but we want to go a step further. We want to do what we can to help ensure our hospitality businesses will have the staffing they need to help drive and reap the benefits of the economic recovery and ensure an exceptional visitor experience,” said VAAAC Executive Director Kristen Pironis.

A four-week VAAAC recruitment campaign is running through June 11. Via radio, digital display, and social media advertising, the organization will be encouraging friendly, talented, motivated, hard-working individuals to “Apply Now.” The ads will drive job seekers to a newly created VAAAC Travel, Tourism, and Hospitality job board on the VAAAC website (www.visitannapolis.org).

create a comprehensive plan to protect the Naval Academy and NSA Annapolis campuses from the effects of land subsidence, sea-level rise, groundwater change, coastal flooding/storm surge, and inadequate stormwater management.

“This project will provide the plan, but more importantly, the execution strategy for protecting this historic installation and its mission from vulnerabilities associated with sea-level rise and extreme weather over the next 100 years,” said Capt. Homer Denius III, Commanding Officer, NSA Annapolis in the statement.

The Department of Defense in September awarded Swift Rivers Versar JV a $648,871 contract to produce a “military installation resilience plan” for the Naval Academy, according to USAspending.gov, a government spending website. p May 13 - May 20, 2021 • BAY WEEKLY • 7

Light boat traffic this year may be quite an advantage to those getting out. Bait anglers are not really successful yet with stripers this year but channel and blue cats are making up the difference. The snakehead bite around the Black Walnut River drainage is coming on slowly but definitely coming on.

Slow Start to Trophy Season A s I spoke to the angler standing on the smooth, sandy beach, his attention darted past me and over my shoulder. I looked around and behind me one of his rod tips dipped again then again. “You brought luck for me,” the young man stated as he stepped over and freed the rod from its holder.

The thought that he might be calling me good luck a bit early entered my head but as he pulled back on his 10-foot surf rod, it bent deeply indicating something substantial was solidly at the end of his line. “A catfish,” he announced within a few minutes after he skillfully lifted and cranked the reluctant fish slowly to the shoreline.

We were at Sandy Point State Park the Sunday after opening day at about 9 a.m. and Jesus Chacon was beaching his second fish of the morning, both it turned out were hefty channel cats of about 24 inches. “I’m giving them to those picnickers over there,” he indicated. “They’re putting them right on the grill.”

“I fish here a lot this time of year but I’m from Costa Rica,” said Chacon, “and in a few months I’ll be back at my home trolling for blue marlin in the Pacific. But fish are fish and this is fine with me.”

His sentiments were echoed by all of the six or seven anglers persever-

The tide was low and still falling, not the best of conditions for the beach but it was overcast with just a sprinkle of rain and very little wind. That could mean things might get better really fast. With a rising tide and a bit of luck, the conditions within an hour or two would be excellent. The next two anglers along the strand, Vince Lassahn and his brother Jacob from Baltimore, were also patiently waiting for things to improve.

It was a very sparse group at Sandy Point for this time of year but the T HURS D AY

forecasted rain and a painfully slow traffic backup since 6:30 a.m. on the eastbound span of the Bay Bridge were also responsible. The first week of trophy season was off to a slow start and though some boats out in the Bay were doing well, reporting a few large stripers, most weren’t, with mostly throwbacks.

This could be due to a number of causes this season, the first being some relentlessly nasty winds, the next being few migratory stripers over the 35-inch minimum seem to be hanging around.

The warm weather we’ve been experiencing lately might have accelerated the spawn as most of the successful reports I have heard told of spent females even in the smaller sizes. Of course, that could be a good thing from a spawning perspective, but for the anglers spending hours and hours on the Bay waiting for some big fish activity, it was not so good. Their terminal rigs at Sandy Point were set up for small fish; I didn’t see any circle hooks larger than size 1/0 and most of the baits being used were on the small side, both the bloodworms and the menhaden pieces.

That’s not to say that big rock won’t take a small bait, but this time of year it would be very unusual. The anglers S U ND AY

explained that though they knew big baits would be better, what they had was all that was available at nearby stores. They all were using pyramid sinkers, the usual choice at this location at Sandy Point.

The tidal currents here will sweep baits secured with bank, bass or egg sinkers easily down current and require the constant resetting of rigs. Pyramid sinkers will hold bottom much better and require less attention. One- to 5-ounce sinkers are the norm this time of year as are 9- to 12-foot surf rods.

Surf reels holding lots of braided line and/or mono up to 30-pound test was also in evidence. The parking lot for the marina at the state park was also poorly attended, undoubtedly due to the traffic backup and the weather forecast.

Upon arriving home, I briefly considered returning to the park with my own surf rig, knowing of a location or two where I could acquire more suitably sized baits. But then the heavens opened up and a torrential downpour commenced. I put on the pot for some fresh coffee and picked up my latest paperback.

The season is young and there will many more days to enjoy when the sun would be shining. p

THE MOVIEGOER

BY DIANA BEECHENER

The Paper Tigers

Former kung fu students must avenge their master in this action comedy AVAILABLE ON AMAZON PRIME OR OTHER ON-DEMAND SERVICES

A

s teens, Danny, Hing, and Jim were the feared disciples of Shifu Cheung (Roger Yuan: Mulan). The trio known as the Three Tigers were undefeated when challenging other kung fu students.

Brawling their way across the city, they grew their reputations as well as their egos. They were seen as the future of the practice, and the only students Shifu Cheung would ever need.

Thirty years later, none of the men speak, let alone keep up with their mastery of Kung Fu. Danny (Alain Uy: Helstrom), once thought to be the rightful successor of Shifu Cheung, is a divorced dad who can’t seem to get his life together. Hing (Ron Yuan: Mulan) suffered an accident that ruined his leg and left him with a permanent limp. Jim (Mykel Shannon Jenkins: Octopus Pot) is a Brazilian jujitsu coach who had an argument with Danny and hasn’t seen his friends in decades.

When Shifu Cheung dies under mysterious circumstances, the three must reunite to avenge their master. But thirty years without practicing kung fu has left the Three Tigers rather…toothless. Can men with bad backs and slow reflexes fight their way back to honor?

A light romp that doesn’t worry about the dozens of plot holes it leaves, The Paper Tigers is full of enough spunk and energy to distract viewers from the glaring script issues. Director Quoc Bao Tran makes his feature debut with a funny action movie filled with heart.

Tran has a great sense of comic timing, letting his actors riff on each other in a natural way. The punchlines never feel forced, and Tran has a talent for building to a comic reveal. The film feels like a mashup of the early films of Stephen Chow and Jackie Chan, both of whom

Mykel Shannon Jenkins, Alain Uy, and Ron Yuan in The Paper Tigers.

Director Quoc Bao Tran makes his feature debut with a funny action movie filled with heart. used martial arts as a comedic art form.

Tran is also deft at filming action sequences. Unlike many modern films, there’s a real weight to the fights in The Paper Tigers. Much of that can be attributed to a particularly visceral sound design. When bodies slam, they hit the ground with a thick thud.

Kicks and punches are accompanied by

crunches of bone and flesh. It’s surprisingly gritty for a light action comedy.

Though the action and the jokes are on point, The Paper Tigers stumbles on its story. The film is set in a heightened kung fu world where no one calls the cops after violent street brawls, there are kung fu hitmen that murder with poison finger strikes, and to-the-death duels are just a normal thing that happens. Plotlines are brought up and dropped, seemingly on a whim. The reason each man stopped speaking to Shifu and each other is built up but the reveals are ultimately unsatisfying and forgettable.

Character traits that define the leads at the beginning are dropped with no explanation as well. Danny is framed as a workaholic absent father who strands his young son at the office when he takes a weekend business call. His demanding job, however, completely

goes away when Danny choses to go on a quest for justice to honor his Shifu.

It’s these inconsistencies that keep the audience from truly caring about the men at the center of the story.

Even without deep characterization, enjoying The Pater Tigers on a superficial level is pretty easy. Tran clearly has a deep love of the genre and the action sequences are great tributes to icons such as Lee and Chan. Uy also carries the film beautifully as Danny, a man who lost his way and his honor.

He’s a great natural presence and offers a believable transformation from loser to kung fu master.

If you’re in the market for a send-up of the kung fu genre that’s got plenty of laughs, The Paper Tigers is a great $7 rental. Its tone and laughs never waver, even when the script doesn’t p strike true.

NEWS OF THE WEIRD

BY THE EDITORS AT ANDREWS MCMEEL SYNDICATION Weird Sports

The World Toe Wrestling Federation has announced that the 2021 championship matches will go ahead in August in Derbyshire, England (what a relief!) and organizers are looking for people who want to dip their toes in the water of pro competition. Toe wrestling, The Northern Echo reported, takes place sitting down and barefoot, with the competitors’ toes linked. But matches are no tiptoe through the tulips: Ben “Total Destruction” Woodroffe, who is ranked second in the world (and had his toenails surgically removed to give him a competitive edge), had his ankle snapped in two places by 16-time champion Alan “Nasty” Nash—during a practice session. “It’s a people’s sport; there are no levels or qualifiers, and anyone can join,” Woodroffe said encouragingly.

Oops

• A stone marking the border between Belgium and France dates back to 1819, but its provenance was no deterrent for a Belgian farmer who became annoyed that it was placed right where he needed to drive his tractor. The BBC reported that the farmer relocated the stone about 7.5 feet into French territory—a move that has tickled officials on both sides. “I was happy, my town was bigger,” said David Lavaux, the mayor of Erquelinnes in Belgium. “But the mayor of Bousignies-sur-Roc didn’t agree.” The farmer will be asked to move the stone back; “If he shows good will, he won’t have a problem, we will settle this issue amicably,” Lavaux said. Otherwise, he may face criminal charges.

• Kevin Johnson was arrested in Maricopa County, Arizona, after he left behind an obvious bit of evidence when he slashed two of his neighbor’s tires, the Maricopa Monitor reported. Francesca Wikoff found her flat tires on April 15, along with a severed finger lying on the driveway, and police said a trail of blood led to a nearby home.

The night before, Johnson had allegedly become drunk and belligerent at a neighborhood get-together, where he shoved and threatened Wikoff and her husband before being asked to leave.

He was charged with criminal damage and assault, along with other offenses.

Goals

A police officer in Leicestershire, England, finally got his wish, to “tick off a water-based pursuit in landlocked

Leicester,” on April 28. The 37-yearold perp was wanted for suspicion of assault and breaching a restraining order, Leicestershire Live reported.

Police located his narrowboat, which has a top speed of 4 mph, on the Grand Union Canal, and one officer rode his bike alongside the boat for 8 miles as others waited for it at Lock 37. “The suspect was arrested as he left the boat to travel through a lock,” a spokesperson said.

The Passing Parade

Authorities in Sri Lanka arrested Caroline Jurie, the reigning Mrs. World, after she snatched the crown from the head of Pushpika De Silva as she was crowned Mrs. Sri Lanka on national television on April 4, allegedly injuring her. Jurie, the 2019 Mrs. Sri Lanka, claimed De Silva was a divorced woman, which made her ineligible to win the pageant, but organizers confirmed De Silva is only separated, and she has been re-crowned. The new queen reported on Facebook that she went to the hospital to be treated for head injuries after the incident, and police spokesman Ajith Rohana told the BBC Jurie was charged with “simple hurt and criminal cause.” Pageant director Chandimal Jayasinghe said, “It was a disgrace how Caroline Jurie behaved on the stage.”

The Birds

There may be just 500 California condors left in the world, but about 20 of them are meeting up at the home of Cinda Mickols in Tehachapi, California. Mickols’ daughter, Seana Quintero, said the imposing birds showed up at the beginning of May, the Associated Press reported, and have trashed her mother’s deck. They’ve knocked over plants, scratched railings and ruined a spa cover and decorative flags. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service suggested “harmless hazing” methods to disperse the protected birds, such as shouting and clapping, or spraying water.

The Way the World Works

Matt Perkins and his husband were in the midst of having a pool installed in the backyard of their new home in Las Vegas when police and crime scene investigators showed up on April 26.

The pool builders had unearthed some bones buried about 5 feet below the surface, the Associated Press reported.

The bones turned out not to be human; they are those of a horse or other large mammal. More important, they are not recent: Nevada Science Center Research Director Joshua Bonde said they’re between 6,000 and 14,000 years old, dating to Earth’s most recent Ice Age. The area was once a watering spot for wildlife in the Mohave Desert.

Bonde said U.S. laws give ownership of fossils to property owners; Perkins is deciding how best to preserve the antiquities.

The Weirdo-American Community

In rural Moffat, Colorado, the body of 45-year-old Amy Carlson, known as Mother God by the spiritual group Love Has Won, was found dead and mummified on April 28. Her body was wrapped in a sleeping bag and decorated with Christmas lights, Fox News reported.

One of Carlson’s followers told police that he took in a group of people who he believes transported her body from California to his home. Saguache County Coroner Tom Perrin told police he believes Carlson died about four weeks ago. Seven people were arrested in connection with the case; they were also charged with child abuse, as two minors were found in the home.

Bright Idea

Here’s one way to keep your neighbors at a distance: Build a wall made of cow dung. In Lodi Township, Michigan, one farmer did just that, constructing a 250-foot-long wall of manure after disputing a property line with Wayne Lambarth. The wall generates an unpleasant stench, Lambarth told Fox News, but the anonymous farmer who built it denies it’s a “poop wall.”

“It’s a compost fence,” he said. Officials in the area have said nothing can be done about it because it is on private property.

Read the Label

Michigander Yacedrah Williams got into sticky trouble in late April when she mistook a bottle of nail glue for eye drops, Fox News reported. Williams fell asleep with her contact lenses in, and when she woke up, she wanted to take them out. She reached into her purse for eye drops but grabbed the nail glue she uses to fix broken fingernails—and immediately recognized her mistake.

“I was trying to pull my eyes apart, but I couldn’t,” Williams said. Her hus-

band rushed her to the ER, where doctors opened her eyes and removed her contacts—which they believe saved her vision. She did lose her eyelashes, though. Dr. George Williams noted, “If it’s any comfort to her, she’s not the first person to make this mistake.”

Awesome!

Traffic outside a school in China’s Henan province was so bad that one student’s mother, Ms. Meng, spent $154,000 having two footbridges built over the road so that kids could cross safely.

In addition, the school is located on lower ground, and students had to walk through puddles outside the building.

“The water will spill over the stairs where schoolchildren stand to wait for their parents like little birds,” Meng said, according to Oddity Central. “My child’s feet turned white because they were soaking in water.” Meng did not tell her son that she funded the footbridges.

“I just did what I can afford to do. You can’t take money with you after death.”

Perspective

Madison Kohout, 19, moved from Oklahoma to Piggott, Arkansas, in March to be nearer to a family she had become close with. She found an apartment and signed a lease after sundown, with the landlord telling her she could move in that evening if she’d like: “No one’s going to hear anything. They can’t really hear very well.” About a week later, she noticed a sign outside the complex that said “Senior Living Apartments.” “I realized I moved myself into a retirement community,” Kohout told The New York Times. “I can’t believe I did this.” However, in the spirit of lemons and lemonade, Kohout is making the best of it. “It’s like having extra sets of grandparents,” she said. p Send your weird news items with subject line WEIRD NEWS to WeirdNewsTips@amuniversal.com.

The word cloud comes from Old English clud (mass of rock, or hill), due to their similar appearance.
