ltruism is a beautiful thing. “The belief in or practice of selfless concern for the well-being of others,” as Oxford defines it, is the idea of helping other people even when there’s nothing in it for you. The beauty of altruistic behavior is that many times, you do get something in return: a human connection, a new perspective, or gratitude for what you have. Prior to the start of the pandemic last spring, volunteers at my church had been making and collecting casseroles to be served at Beans and Bread, an organization in Baltimore City that helps people with issues of homelessness, mental health, and more. At the edge of a southeast Baltimore housing project, they served the homemade casseroles to hundreds of people as family-style meals. When COVID-19 forced the center to stop serving sit-down meals, church volunteers quickly problem-solved. The solution? Bagged lunches, distributed to folks who, in many cases, would not get any other meal that day. My family jumped into the effort—each week we add extra quantities to our grocery list, and every Tuesday morning, pack 20 brown-bagged lunches. Each bag gets a bologna and cheese sandwich, a bag of pretzels and a pack of cookies, along with an orange for fiber. We write a small note of encouragement on each bag (my 5-year-old helps come up with ideas) and decorate it with stickers (both kids get involved there). Our 20 bags are added to as many as 900 other homemade lunches and delivered to Beans and Bread. The effort has been so successful, the lunches are now
YOUR SAY I saw your article on the alligator killed in the Ranch Club. Aren’t authorities called to catch wild animals and release them in a safe place?

distributed to Helping Up Mission, an addiction treatment center, as well. Seeing folks lined up waiting for lunches on Tuesday mornings is a dose of reality for us and our young children. While it’s hard for privileged 3- and 5-year-olds to grasp the concept of poverty, “making the lunches” is an effective weekly lesson. It’s altruism on a small, lunch bag-sized scale. Community efforts at any scale are powerful, both for those being helped and those doing the helping. We meet a few of those on both sides in this week’s issue of CBM Bay Weekly. In Annapolis, the tight-knit team at Graul’s Market is touched by autism, so they’re helping to make sure others with autism are well-taken care of (see page 9). In Pasadena, a new coffee shop by day/pub by night is modeled after a firehouse and has a mission of giving the volunteer fire company the support they need. Sounds like a good excuse for a coffee (or a beer!) to me (page 7). And at the waterfront, a new campaign aims to clean up the Bay one tiny cigarette butt at a time (page 6). Yes, there will be special receptacles around Annapolis just for recycling cigarette butts—and their plastic parts will be reused in construction materials. Each of these community efforts has a clear mission: to help. But each one also benefits the community at large—now that’s a win-win. p —MEG WALBURN VIVIANO, CBM EDITORIAL DIRECTOR
ing of the alligator in Chesapeake Ranch Estates, we sought clarification from Maryland Department of Natural Resources. Spokesman Gregg Bortz gave us this answer: “It is illegal to possess an alligator in Maryland, and anyone who brought and released this alligator here can face penalties. Maryland does not have state laws about killing alligators. We are consulting with our federal and local allied agencies as to any next steps on this matter.” p

.S. Secret Service agents have to be ready for any possible scenario as they travel far and wide protecting the President. And that could include “man overboard” water rescues or a search for victims in the water. So where can the Secret Service train for these possibilities? The Chesapeake Bay, of course, with the help of the Anne Arundel County Fire Department’s fire boat and technical rescue and dive companies. In June, Secret Service conducted a rescue swimming course on the Bay where agents could practice their open water skills. CBM Bay Bulletin spoke with Anne Arundel Fire Department Battalion Chief David Chen, who says the
department has been helping with the Secret Service water rescue program for the last 12 years. The agents have joined Anne Arundel Fire at their training center and also on the Bay, using fire boats from Cape St. Claire and Shady Side as well as the dive company based in Bay Ridge. “They usually meet us at Sandy Point and we’ll go out on the Bay and they practice things such has man overboard drills, and basic boating skills but man overboard drills and locating a victim in the water, accessing them in the water, recovering them back to the boat, swimming in the open water versus the pool,” Chen explains. A real water rescue an agent might face could take place anywhere in the world, but the proximity to Washington, D.C. makes Annapolis ideal. “We’re the closest body of water that’s an open body of water for them to train in and with our availability of the boats and our inter agency cooperation that we’ve established over the years, they come out and ride with us on the boat,” says Chen. It’s important for agents to experience the wave action seen in the open Bay like you’d find off Sandy Point. And conducting rescues off a boat is a lot different than training on something stationary, like a pool deck. And the long-term relationship with Secret Service has some benefit to the fire department, too, Chen says. “I think it’s a great partnership. We help them out. We do have the Naval Academy here, so if there’s something happening here they can give us a heads up and call and talk to us.”
FIREWORKS ACCIDENT CANCELS OC SHOWS, INJURES WORKERS BY MEG WALBURN VIVIANO
F
ourth of July fireworks celebrations in Ocean City were not to be this year— after the fireworks being set up on the beach Sunday morning exploded all at once in an unintentional discharge. The Ocean City Fire Department says the fireworks went off as employees from the fireworks company were setting up on the beach near Dorchester Street. The discharge created a towering cloud of colorful explosions out on the beach in broad daylight. Heather Pitz was riding her bike along the boardwalk by the fishing and amusement park piers when the fireworks began to detonate all at once. She saw debris fly through the air, felt a small amount of ash on her skin. and tells CBM Bay Bulletin it was very loud. The fire department says some fireworks company employees suffered minor injuries, but all refused transport to the hospital. No visitors on the beach or boardwalk were hurt. “Prior to the fireworks being off loaded from the vehicle, Fire Marshals secure a safe zone around the fireworks and put other safety protocols in place. It is this very zone and safety protocols that kept anyone else from

being injured,” says Ocean City Fire Chief Richie Bowers. Ocean City canceled its beach fireworks and the simultaneous fireworks show that was to take place uptown at Northside Park, put on by the same fireworks company. In a statement the city wrote, “Ocean City Fire Marshals are continuing safety inspections at each firework location after the unintended discharge of fireworks on the beach this morning. At this time, the cause of the fireworks discharge is unknown. A perimeter around the fireworks site has been established and will remain in place until the safety inspections are complete, which could take several days.” On the evening of Monday, July 5, the Ocean City Bomb Squad conducted a “planned and controlled demolition” of the fireworks that were left unexploded on the beach. The bomb squad worked with the Maryland State Fire Marshal’s Office Bomb Squad, ATF, and the fireworks vendor to identify the fireworks that could still pose a threat. As of Tuesday morning, Ocean City Fire reported that almost all of the beach was able to reopen, thanks to public safety partners and the town’s public works staff. “Only a tiny portion of the beach is roped off to allow for a final cleaning!” they announced.

No Butts in the Bay BY KATHY KNOTTS
A
new public education program in the City of Annapolis aims to keep more plastic out of the Bay by targeting the waste left behind by smokers. The latest weapon in the fight for a cleaner city: receptacles for cigarette butts to be recycled. With the help of environmental nonprofit Annapolis Green, the city has installed seven cigarette receptacles around Annapolis and Eastport that carry the message that cigarette butts are not only unsightly litter, but with every rainfall they wash into storm drains, ending up in our creeks, rivers, and the Chesapeake Bay. Cigarette butts are made of plastic so they are not biodegradable; they break
Cigarette butts are made of plastic so they are not biodegradable; they break up into microscopic pieces that marine life and birds can mistake for food.

up into microscopic pieces that marine life and birds can mistake for food; and they are designed to absorb toxic chemicals from entering smokers’ lungs so they hold materials that are harmful to wildlife. The “No Butts in the Bay” campaign will collect the contents in the receptacles to send to TerraCycle to recover their plastic parts to be used in other products. Smokers will be offered individual pocket ashtrays and cup-holder size ashtrays to encourage them to hang on to their butts until a proper receptacle is in sight along with educational handouts. The campaign is funded by a grant from the Maryland Department of Natural Resources. “We want our city to be clean and beautiful,” said Mayor Gavin Buckley, “and we want our residents and visitors who choose to smoke to do the right thing by our environment.”

Sound the Alarm
Putting out fires with coffee and pastries? BY JUDY COLBERT
L
ongtime Pasadena residents may recognize the building next to the Riviera Beach Volunteer Fire Station as a former biker bar, which sat empty for five years. Today it is the home of Second Alarm Brewhouse, a coffeehouse by day and soon, a pub by night. For now, the firehouse-themed café is helping to fund a dream for owner Duane McKee. The 43-year-old hopes to turn all those purchases of coffee, pastries and eventually, beers, into a future funded position for a volunteer fire department recruiter. It’s a dream that is grounded in re-
ality. McKee grew up in Anne Arundel County but spent many years as a sound engineer and designer for Broadway and road touring theater companies. Although he spent a lot of time on the road, he was a volunteer for 20 years at the Arundel VFD and now he’s a captain at the Riviera Beach VFD. Those 27 years in volunteer fire departments have made a lasting impact on him. He’s part of a long history where “volunteers have supported the Anne Arundel County fire departments for more than 100 years,” says McKee. While maybe not as influential as his work in Oprah Winfrey’s The Color Purple or Bette Midler’s Hello Dolly!, his latest production is receiving rave reviews. “They have tasty beverages and food
items, and I love the fact that by making a purchase you are also giving back to the community,” says Melissa Reedy, of Odenton. “The atmosphere is comfortable and cozy, like you are part of a firehouse family, and everyone treats you as such from the moment you step foot inside the door.” The coffeehouse sells its own Firehouse Blend, supplied by Chesapeake Bay Roasting Company, tea from the Shab Row Tea Emporium in Frederick and breakfast daily consisting of pastries, sandwiches and smoothies (6am2pm). The interior is decorated like a museum to all things firefighting. Sit on a comfy sofa or at a high-top table, play chess, chat with friends, enjoy the Wi-Fi and the beverages. While you’re there, notice the fire
hoses, the sprinkler heads used as coat and purse hooks, and a fire hydrant that’s also a coffee dispenser. The numbered lights around the perimeter represent the fire stations in the county. The ones with lights on are those that have been closed. The others light up when they receive a call. The interior is completely ADA-compliant and this summer an Eagle Scout project will tackle installing a lift on the left side of the building, next to the handicapped parking spaces. Additionally, the front part of a fire engine (from about the ‘60s or ‘70s) that includes the front and back seats will be installed at the front door. Do you have little ones or are you still a little one at heart? Flash those lights (no sirens, sorry) or try on some firefighting gear. McKee plans for the upcoming Brewhouse pub to open in the afternoons, about 3pm, and feature Maryland beers (10 on tap) and wines. He also plans to bring in food trucks and offer food delivery service through a number of apps. Proceeds from Brewhouse purchases, sales of souvenirs (shirts, mugs, etc.), paving bricks and donations to the GoFundMe campaign will help launch the pub and professional recruiter. It’s a vital part of the process McKee has envisioned. A full-time recruiter could go into the community, attend scout meetings, career day events for junior and high school or other populations, and anywhere people might gather, to explain the responsibilities and benefits of joining the volunteer fire department, whether it’s as a fire fighter, EMT, or helping with administrative duties. “So, if you like bookkeeping, running a bingo game, arranging for Santa to visit local communities, and any number of other duties, you’re invited to join [the VFD],” says McKee. “Among the benefits are free training for firefighters, rescue and emergency personnel...retirement...scholarships... a tax break... and a family of lifelong friendships.” With a little luck and a lot of community support, soon McKee can post that help wanted ad. Second Alarm Brewhouse is at 8510 Fort Smallwood Rd., Pasadena, 410-888-3025. Find them on Instagram and Facebook.

Brewing ‘Bucha
A lesson in the fun of fermenting BY KIMBERLY KWEDER
A
covered container sat on a table at Wild Kid Acres. Inside, a jelly-like organism floated. One would almost wonder if it came from the depths of the Chesapeake Bay. It certainly wowed those on hand. In reality, the mystery substance was a SCOBY—short for symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast. The squishy, rubbery substance grew for eight years in a container on Carla Bowling’s kitchen counter in California and made the journey to Maryland with Bowling when she recently moved to a new home in Selby-on-the-Bay. The well-traveled SCOBY is being used to start new batches of kombucha, and Bowling is the instructor of a homebrewing class at Wild Kid Acres Farm in Edgewater. (You may have spotted their goat in the Annapolis 4th of July parade this year). Wild Kid Acres opened last year, providing fitness classes, therapy, agricultural and environmental education, and event venues, says owner Gerardo Martinez. “This piece of SCOBY is the main star,” said Bowling, as she snipped the layers and sectioned them into small bags for guests to take home. “It’s kind of like taking home a goldfish from the county fair,” added Bowling. Bowling led 20 participants in step-

Kombucha is a fermented drink made with tea, sugar, bacteria and yeast that has seen a surge in popularity recently. It’s thought to have originated in China or Japan many centuries ago. People who love this fermented drink usually praise the benefits of the bacteria, believed to help with digestion and a variety of ailments.

“The texture is like an oyster!” exclaimed a participant when being gifted with a piece of the SCOBY. “I’ve had health issues and much of it is centered around the gut. My health has improved from eating fermented foods,” said Eve, a Mayo resident. “It’s about feeding healthy bacteria with fermented foods,” she added. Before embracing kombucha, she said she used to spend $50 per bottle on medicines for her conditions. The steps for making kombucha are simple: First, grow the SCOBY and
let it develop its layers. Second, brew a mild-flavored tea and add sugar, and lastly combine the hot tea, cold water, and mix into the fermenting container and let it sit on a counter or cabinet covered for 5-7 days. To take it up a notch, there’s a second layer that’s all about the flavor. A variety of dried fruits, fresh fruits, bars, or fresh-pressed juices can be added to the concoction. Home-brewers need a funnel or strainer to discard the fruit pieces, Bowling said. She says the hardest part of home brewing is finding the SCOBY; she bought her first SCOBY from a store in California. From there, it’s about balancing the right temperature for healthy cultivation and growth. One participant said homebrewing is a fun at-home project and less expensive than store-bought kombucha which can cost between $3-$4 per 16-ounce bottle. “It’s a bit cheaper to make it on your own,” said Erin Dom, 29, of Silver Spring, who started home brewing during the quarantine last year. “The ingredients to brew it are just tea and sugar,” she added. Bowling said that’s why she first got interested, too. “When you’re buying it [kombucha] at the store, the glass is what you’re paying for,” she said. Others said they simply like the fizzy experience. “You want to buy it for the bubbles and the tears running down your face,” said Mark Dudley, 33, of Silver Spring.

Local Grocer Plays Host to Autism Resource
“The goal of our bus tour is to build awareness, reach our families, and challenge the Maryland community to dip into their hearts and support our mission.”
BY KRISTA PFUNDER
G
raul’s Market is raising autism awareness by welcoming Pathfinders for Autism—a group that works to support and improve the lives of individuals affected by autism—to share resources in the parking lot of the market’s Annapolis location. Pathfinders for Autism recently parked its tour bus in the Graul’s lot, inviting people to learn about the organization and about connecting with those with autism. It’s close to home for the Graul’s family, who counts a young man with autism among its valued employees. Pathfinders seeks to let people know there are resources out there—like its online database of therapy and other services available to both kids and adults with autism and their families. “We offer free training to educators, hospital personnel, first responders and family members,” says Katie Ramirez, director of development for Pathfinders for Autism. “We provide recreation events free of charge. Events take place at notable venues throughout Maryland such as National Aquarium in Baltimore, Science Center, Maryland Zoo, Aberdeen Ironbirds, and Ladew Gardens. These events give our families an opportunity to enjoy a family outing at no cost

Maryland community to dip into their hearts and support our mission.” The bus isn’t stopping in only Annapolis. It will travel the entire state of Maryland, ending its tour along the Eastern shore at the beginning of October. “The tour ends at our inaugural Run Wild for Autism at Assateague Island,” Ramirez says. “Our hope is that the bus tour will expand our reach and help us add to our portfolio of programs, events and donors.”
One family with a close connection to Graul’s has taken advantage of the resources offered by Pathfinders to Autism. Maximilian (Max) Mazer—who lives with autism and attends Anne Arundel Community College—has worked at Graul’s Market since 2017. “I stock shelves, straighten shelves, help customers and enjoy getting to know people,” 20-year-old Max says. “Pathfinders for Autism integrates everything together in a package,” says Max’s dad, Josh Mazer, “from the newly diagnosed to helping with employment.” For more information, visit pathfindersforautism.org or call the resource center at 443-330-5370. p

Going for Gold Maryland hopefuls head to Tokyo BY CHERYL COSTELLO & KATHY KNOTTS
O Matthew Centrowitz Jr. in Rio, 2016. Photo via Wikipedia.
LYMPIC DREAMS start early. So it’s no surprise that even a one-year postponement of those dreams can be heartbreaking. Athletes around the globe felt the pain when the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games were scrapped. The Olympics have never been rescheduled in peacetime. In 1916, 1940 and 1944, the games were canceled because of world wars. But in less than two weeks, those who thought the dream was lost will get a second chance. Among them, Marylanders are making their way to Japan and hopefully to the medal podiums, too. As a state, Maryland was the big winner in the Rio Olympics—thanks to gold-medal performances by athletes such as swimmers Michael Phelps, Jack Conger, Chase Kalisz and Katie Ledecky, basketball stars Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony. Maryland sends 14 athletes to this month’s games in Tokyo, competing in swimming, track and field, basketball, wrestling, rugby, gymnastics and sailing. Most of those big names come from big cities and suburbs outside of D.C. and Baltimore. But there are three athletes going to Tokyo that come from right here in Chesapeake Country.
CENTRO NATION
T
rack star Matthew Centrowitz Jr., 31, hails from Arnold in Anne Arundel County. And his neighborhood is proud of that fact. As he returns to his third Olympics, Centrowitz’s neighbors will once again post their yard signs declaring them part of “Centro Nation”. Centrowitz earned gold in Rio and came in fourth in London. The University of Oregon grad will compete once again in the 1500 meter event. Centrowitz is a big name in the running world, known for his tactical moves and securing the first 1500 gold medal for the United States since the 1908 games. His talent and skills certainly run in the family: dad Matthew Centrowitz Sr. was a two-time Olympian in 1976 and 1980. Matthew Centrowitz Jr.

W
estlake High School is finding itself in the news for all the right reasons. Alumna and star sprinter Christina Clemons of Waldorf has caught the attention of the sports world, for both her speed and her style. She makes her Olympic debut this year in Tokyo, but no one is all that surprised. “Christina was a sweetheart, she loved to compete and loved to win,” says her former Westlake coach Beth Shook. “I am so proud of her and all she has accomplished. She has worked so hard for so many years.” Clemons’s latest claim to fame has been the Cool Ranch Doritos earrings she wore to compete in the USA Track & Field trials. During the qualifiers, Clemons wore a pair of dangling earrings that were in the shape of tiny chip bags. She made an impressive show in the 100-meter hurdles, Doritos earrings
and all. The world waits to see what she will wear in her Olympic debut. “When she left for college, she told Coach Murray and myself that she would be in the Olympics someday,” says Shook. “We told her we would be in the front row cheering for her. Since we can’t be in Tokyo, we will have a party here in Maryland to celebrate ... Christina is a fierce competitor and she has set her mind to winning a medal; I would expect nothing less from her.” The 31-year-old graduated from Ohio State University with a degree in criminology. Let’s hope no bad guys ever try to run from her. Note: What we call track and field is called “Athletics” at the Olympics; something to keep in mind when searching through the schedule.

SAIL AWAY—TO TOKYO
W
omen’s windsurfing (also known as sailboarding) was added to the Olympics in 1992. Farrah Hall was just 10 years old at the time. Now, the 39-year-old is logging her final hours of training in Spain for the 2021 Olympic games before heading to Tokyo in a few days. Unlike Clemons or Centrowitz, Hall qualified for her Olympic spot before the pandemic hit so she didn’t have to requalify. The Broadneck High School alum first developed her skills on the Bay. “I grew up in Cape St. Claire, I was born in Annapolis,” says Hall. “Growing up in [the] Cape, I always liked the water. We have the little beaches in Cape St. Claire so we’re always messing around at the beach.” She credits a former boyfriend for sparking her love of the water. “My little high school boyfriend had a windsurfer, a really old windsurfer, that he brought over to my house and we went to the beach and started messing with it. We didn’t know what we were doing of course, but after that I was just hooked.” She’s now 39 years old—and still hooked. Hall has trained for four Olympics and qualified for two, this year and the 2012 London Olympics. She will compete in the RS:X, an official Olympic windsurfing class. “It’s an individual competition so each country has one sailor representing them,” she said, “and I’m it for women’s windsurfing.” The Olympic sailing regatta begins July 25. Sailing events will be held at Enoshima Yacht Harbour in Fujisawa City, Kanagawa Prefecture, southeast of Tokyo. The venue was built for the Tokyo 1964 Olympic Games and has a capacity of 3,600 spectators. Hall heads to Tokyo with the experience of surfing through wind speeds anywhere from 3–35 knots. “There’s different techniques for each wind condition,” she explains. “In light wind, it’s very physical because you’re pumping the sails to make your own wind. You’re like standup rowing. In very strong wind there’s a lot of force because the equipment is big and heavy. “ She began windsurfing around age 15 and that passion didn’t blow over when she studied at St. Mary’s College of Maryland. “Farrah was a boathouse worker. We have student workers that help keep everyone safe here on campus,” says Adam Werblow, head sailing coach at the college and director of the waterfront. “On any given nice day at St. Mary’s College of Maryland we have 20 percent of the student body get out on the water on something.” Werblow credits Hall and other students with bringing energy back to the windsurfing club. “I think she also got a lot of fun out of passing the sport onto others.” Students pushed the college to make an investment in windsurfing equipment. Before, the club stored its boards and sails in a little shack on the waterfront. Now they have a storage building stacked with gear—they call it the Surf Shanty. “It’s a lasting legacy here for sure,” says Werblow. Hall will compete against 26 other female windsurfers in Tokyo. Competition is more than a day on the Bay. “It’s a very physical sport and it really is comparative to an endurance sport,” says Hall. She adds that with three races per day, athletes could be on the water for five hours depending on water conditions. Hall is not certain yet about her future plans. Maybe she will coach, maybe she will retire. But she does plan to return home to Annapolis after the Olympics. The pandemic means her family can’t travel to watch the games in person. But Hall is happy to come home to the Bay. “The Bay has affected my whole life. Just growing up there, as a little kid I was enchanted, I was in love with it.” p

CREATURE FEATURE
STORY AND PHOTO BY WAYNE BIERBAUM
Fish Crows Rob Osprey Nest
R
ecently, I took an osprey-watching pontoon boat trip on the Patuxent River from Patuxent River Park in Prince George’s County. The naturalist, Greg Kearns, remarked that during last year’s COVID quarantine there was a poorer nesting outcome than in previous years. This year he noticed a new predator, fish crows, attacking the osprey nests. Three crows would go to an osprey’s nest. Two would distract the mother osprey while the third would steal an egg or young bird. This predation by fish crows seems to be new to the Jug Bay area. It has been witnessed live and seen on osprey cams. Fish crows are a smaller cousin of the common American crow and are hard to tell apart. They have a broader wing shape and a squared-off tail. Most of the time the only way to be sure which of the two you are looking at is to wait for it to speak. The common crow is noisier and will clearly say “CAW” while the fish crow will say a very nasally “CAR”.
The fish crow prefers coastal areas and feeds on almost anything it can find including mollusks, fish, insects, and the remains of human picnics. The two crow populations do overlap with the common crow being the dominant species. Like all crow-like birds (the genus Corvus) the fish crow is a highly intelligent social bird. They work together in small groups and share the tasks of rearing young, finding food, protecting territory and defending each other. They are willing to live near humans and will steal food or tear into garbage if given a chance. Their social groups are generally small, under a dozen, and they are less commonly found in large gatherings like the common crow. Fish crows can be found at Sandy Point Park. I have never been there without hearing or seeing at least one. Hopefully the osprey nest attacks will stop and not be taught to other crows or passed on to the younger birds from that group. p
GARDENING FOR HEALTH
STORY AND PHOTO BY MARIA PRICE
The Wonders of Clary Sage
C
lary sage or Salvia sclarea, is an ancient herb that has been used by many cultures to medicate the eyes and treat a variety of diseases. This biennial member of the mint family, is native to the Mediterranean, parts of North Africa and Central Asia. It is now a commercial crop in the Mediterranean, Russia, the United States, England, Morocco, and Central Europe, cultivated primarily for its essential oils. It still grows wild in many places. The plant begins as a rosette and by the second year produces strong hairy stems that reach a height of 3 feet. The large downy leaves produce a cloud-like spike of lilac and creamy blue flowers that bloom from spring to mid-summer. The flowers attract bees and other pollinators. This scent of clary sage has been described as sweet-spicy, floral, grassy, tea-like and somewhat nutty and similar to ambergris. The essential oil is extracted from the buds and leaves by steam distillation and is used as a perfume fixative in cosmet-
ics, and as a flavoring, mimicking the taste of muscatel wine, in vermouths, wines and liqueurs. In aromatherapy, it is used to relax the mind, aid sleep, and to relieve PMS and cramps. The plant contains a compound, sclareol, whose chemical structure is similar to estrogen. It mimics the effects of estrogen if there is a deficiency and helps restore hormonal balance. The essential oil can be applied topically, used as a compress, massaged into the skin, placed in a warm bath or directly inhaled but not ingested. The herb’s traditional use for clearing the eyes give it the name clary, derived from the Latin word clarus which means “clear”. Historical sources claim a seed placed in an irritated eye will soon turn to mucilage and carry out any irritants. Clary sage is still used today to brighten the eyes, improve vision and slow down the ocular aging process. In Asian medicine, clary sage oil is thought to circulate and strengthen “qi” energy, the life force that flows through our bodies and sustains our physical being. By acting on the “primitive” hypothalamus in the brain, clary sage produces a euphoric effect when used for anxiety or depression. The oil is both
16 • BAY WEEKLY • July 8 - July 15, 2021
anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving. As with any essential oil, use only high-quality products from trusted
sources, and remember there is no regulatory agency that certifies the purity of the oils. p
The rockfish bite continues to be frustrating. Most of the charter boats and commercial hook and liners head FISHFINDER way north past the Bridge and around Hodges Bar and live lining the same school of fish they’ve been targeting all season. When these fish are worn out, who knows what’s going to happen but there’s still time to get in on that bite. Just start early. Both live lining and chumming are producing limits. The Bridge is giving up an occasional quality striper in the high twenties (inches) on live spot and some big perch are holding on the bridge supports on the Eastern side. crabbing has mostly gone nowhere but some stalwarts, though not many, are getting limits on razor clams. And there is one last important note, the rockfish season will be closed from July 16 through the end of the month, and catch and release is also prohibited.
SPORTING LIFE
BY DENNIS DOYLE
A Great Summer Morn I threw the small spinnerbait flat and hard enough to reach just off of the edge of the rocks along the shoreline. It was 9 a.m. and the incoming tide was beginning to slack. Though conditions should have been excellent for white perch, I knew I could well be in big trouble soon. The impending period of dead current could worsen the bite, not that I was in the middle of anything even approaching a good one. My earlier efforts had been soundly thwarted by those dratted cownose rays. A large school of them had settled in all along the shallow shoreline that I had chosen to start my quest

MOON & TIDES
and when the big rays move in, the white perch move out. Hooking two of these monsters on my light tackle within the first 20 yards or so had chased me right out of the area A few small whities had been bumping my spinnerbait along this second location but so far, my live well was devoid of eating-sized perch and the sun was getting up in the sky. Then I hit paydirt—as soon as I made the first turn of my reel’s handle. The sound of a thick perch taking drag warmed up my spirits considerably. It didn’t run too far, reassuring me it wasn’t another ray, and when it T HURS D AY
F RI D AY
S ATU RD AY
stopped it sulked long enough to convince me it wasn’t a rockfish either, also a welcomed feeling. A 16-inch striper can emulate a big perch uncannily well. Leaning on the fish a bit to encourage another run, I was rewarded by the renewed buzz of my small Shimano as the chunky devil made a spirited escape attempt, stretching my 6-pound mono till it hummed. I played the fish tentatively not wishing to lose the first keeper, a major superstition of mine, and finally got him to the boat and into my net. An 11-incher doesn’t seem like much of a fish to anyone who is not a dedicated perch angler, but to a fellow that truly loves the species as I do, it is a handsome and welcomed specimen indeed. Dropping it into my aerated bucket I closed it up against the sun’s brightening rays and readied another cast. My outlook on the day had improved substantially and I was ready when the next rascal slammed my yellow and orange rooster tail. This one gave me a battle to match the first, a great sign indeed. Then disaster struck, the fish was off. Not only was it off it had taken my lure with it. Checking the end of my line for the dreaded curly cue that indicates a S U ND AY

bad knot, I was at least relieved to note a clean break. There had been some kind of line flaw I had not noticed. Running my thumbnail down the last 10 feet of line, I found yet another nicked section, so I cut off about 20 feet and retied a new spinner, cursing myself for not having done this earlier. With the recent heat wave, I had otherwise planned this perch outing carefully. Working the shorelines means having enough time to find fish before the water drops below half tide. Bigger white perch prefer a bit of water under their bellies and, I’ve found, they tend to mover further off of the shallower shorelines as the waterlines drop and can be difficult to find. I was now in the sweet spot of my planned outing and had plenty of good territory to cover before the tide would drop too much for working the shallows. A few keepers later plus double-digit throwbacks kept me busy while the sun and the temps climbed. Just before noon I called it quits. Four nice perch translated into eight crispy fillets, just enough for a nice lunch for two. Another great summer morn on the Chesapeake. Sometimes things work out just right. p

n 1969, hundreds of thousands of people gathered in New York to hear some of the biggest musical acts of the day. The concert series became a cultural touchstone for those who came. Over 300,000 people attended, but none of them were camping in mud to see Jimmy Hendrix. Though the Harlem Cultural Festival didn’t get the same press coverage as Woodstock, it was one of the biggest events of the year. For those living in New York, it was a cultural touchstone, and an affirmation of Black culture and pride. People could venture to Mount Morris Park on any summer Sunday and see Stevie Wonder, Moms Mabley, Gladys Knight, Nina Simone, B.B. King, and Sly and the Family Stone for free.

The concerts were filmed, but the footage sat in a basement for 50 years. Beyond an hourlong weekly special on a local New York television station, most of the footage had never been seen. The Roots’ Questlove found the footage and was inspired to make a documentary celebrating the music and what it meant to the community who gathered in Harlem to hear it. Using incredible archive footage and interviews with historians, attendees, musicians, and celebrities, Summer of Soul is an entertaining, moving documentary. Questlove gives the audience an excellent sense of what exactly this experience meant to those who lived it. He quickly and efficiently gives an overview of the cultural revolution Black Americans were living through in 1969. As the community fought for equality and identity, they turned to music to help them. The concert pulled all of the community together—from Black Panthers to pacifists to non-political members of the community—it was a moment where all could come together and celebrate music. Many of the artists interviewed didn’t know the footage existed. We get to see gospel singer Mavis Staples relive one of the highlights of her career, singing with gospel legend Mahalia Jackson. Watching Staples tear up as she explains this watershed moment is exceptionally poignant. Other artists speak about how the festival made them feel accepted and honored within their own community. Summer of Soul is, at its heart, a
celebration of music. Questlove puts the performances front and center. It’s a chance to see legendary artists live: watch Stevie Wonder play the drums and Moms Mabley joke with the audience. The film also takes pains to explain the diversity of the music featured, from funk to gospel to the blues. It gives the viewers context for the history of each genre and beautiful examples of each in engaging live performances. The film also examines what a massive undertaking it was to organize the festival, giving credit to night club owner and promoter Tony Lawrence, who dreamed up the concept, and then-mayor John Lindsay, who gave the festival critical support. Together, the men were able to book the hottest acts of the time on a shoestring budget. Though the film is a gorgeous celebration of the music, it lacks a bit of background. The film focuses on the cultural impact of the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival, but neglects to outline the significance of the previous other cultural festivals. There’re also a few celebrity talking head cameos that are only featured due to their star status. It’s much more poignant to hear someone speak about the impact the concert had on them as a child, than to hear Chris Rock speak about Stevie Wonder’s career for 10 seconds. While there are a few sour notes, Summer of Soul is a fascinating look at a cultural touchstone that wasn’t as widely celebrated as Woodstock. If you’re a fan of great music and history, this is a massively entertaining documentary. Filled with wonderful performances, touching interviews, and a real sense of history, Summer of Soul will have you running to update your Spotify playlist. Good Documentary * PG-13 * 117 mins.
NEWS OF THE WEIRD
BY THE EDITORS AT ANDREWS MCMEEL SYNDICATION Awesome!
In 1961, when she was 10 years old, Gwen Goldman sent a letter to New York Yankees general manager Roy Hamey, offering her services as a bat girl. Hamey responded, “In a game dominated by men a young lady such as yourself would feel out of place in a dugout.” Goldman kept the letter from Hamey on her bulletin board for the next 60 years, and her daughter recently forwarded it to current general manager Brian Cashman. On June 28, United Press International reported, Goldman was invited to Yankee Stadium to fulfill her dream. Her visit included a tour of the clubhouse, meet-and-greet with players and coaches, and photos with umpires—plus she got to throw out the first pitch wearing a full pinstripe Yankees uniform. “Sixty years thinking about this and here it is,” Goldman said.
The Passing Parade
Deer are not native to Australia, which might explain why two nude sunbathers in Royal National Park, south of Sydney, ran into the bush when a deer startled them on a nudist beach on June 27. The two men, 30 and 49 years old, became lost and called for help, summoning a police rescue helicopter to pluck them from the forest, Reuters reported. Unfortunately for them, they were found to be breaching a COVID-19 lockdown instated in response to the delta variant, and both were charged with fines.
Least Competent Criminals
• An unnamed man in Waterboro, Maine, was arrested on June 27 on an outstanding warrant for a theft from a Walmart, the Associated Press reported. When the bail commissioner arrived, the man tried to use two counterfeit $100 bills to post his bail. He was returned to jail and charged with forgery. Reportedly he was able to meet bail with legitimate bills later that day and is scheduled to be in court on Aug. 4. • In Gillette, Wyoming, a 62-yearold man called the Campbell County Sheriff ’s Office on June 24 to ask why he hadn’t been arrested the day before, when officers raided his home. Undersheriff Quentin Reynolds asked him why he ought to be arrested, and the man admitted that he had used methamphetamine—which might shed light on the fact that his house was never raided and there had been no plans to arrest him. He also told officers that 10 men were following him, the Associated Press reported. Deputies caught up with him as he was driving and arrested him for driving under the influence of a controlled substance. • Among the charges levied against Jose Aramburo Molina Jr. in Phoenix on June 2 was “improper removal of a dead person,” azfamily.com reported. That’s
because when Molina allegedly stole a parked, running van from outside a funeral home, there were two bodies in the back. Molina had the key fob for the van in his possession; he told officers he had picked it up off the ground. He also had several illegal drugs. • Vincent Vinny Marks, 27, of Plaquemine, Louisiana, picked the wrong guy to pull over as he impersonated a police officer on June 10. Law & Crime reported that an off-duty sheriff’s deputy was driving that day when the vehicle behind him began “flashing his headlights continuously.” The deputy pulled into a convenience store parking lot, followed by Marks, who approached his car, presented a badge and “represented himself as being a police officer.” Unfortunately, the off-duty officer recognized Marks from a domestic incident that he had responded to earlier in the year. The Assumption Parish Sheriff’s Office launched an investigation, and Marks was arrested on June 28 for false personation of a peace officer.
Extreme Reaction
A couple in Sheffield, United Kingdom, have taken drastic measures over their neighbor’s tree, which sits right on the property line and overhangs their driveway. Bharat Mistry, 56, the tree’s owner, told the BBC that his neighbor had been complaining for some time about the tree, home to nesting pigeons that relieved themselves on the driveway and cars. First, the angry neighbor asked Mistry to remove the tree altogether. Mistry suggested trimming and installing netting to keep the birds out, but the neighbor called in his own tree surgeon, who completely removed the side of the canopy that was hanging over the drive. “It looks awful,” said Brian Parkes, who lives nearby. “It’s done, you can’t undo it.”
Surprise!
Colin Steer, 70, of Plymouth, United Kingdom, was replacing some floor joists in the home he and his wife bought in 1988 when he noticed a dip in the floor near the bay window in the living room. “I immediately thought someone must have buried someone under there or that we had a sinkhole,” Steer told the Mirror. Instead, he found a well. Since then, Steer has been digging down into the well, having cleared about 17 feet of debris from it, including a sword that he believes could date to medieval times. While the home was constructed in 1895, Steer believes the well may be 500 years old. “At the bottom of the well is about 4 feet of water,” Steer said, which he has sampled and deemed crystal clear. He hopes to dig down another several feet and then extend the structure up into the living room and use it as a coffee table.
But Why?
WLBT-TV in Jackson, Mississippi,
reported on June 30 that vandals have been breaking into graves in Rosemount Cemetery—not only opening the graves, but damaging and opening caskets of people buried there. Mausoleums have also been breached, with urns and remains missing. Zach Martinez, who visited on June 29 to pay respects to a friend, said, “It’s sad what’s going on out here because this is a resting place for people.” Martinez returned one casket to its niche. The secretary of state’s office told WLBT that a complaint would have to be raised against the cemetery for an investigation to be opened.
Best Laid Plans
South Los Angeles was the scene of a huge explosion that injured 17 people on June 30 after a planned detonation of illegal fireworks went horribly wrong, CBSLA reported. The Los Angeles Police Department had seized more than 5,000 pounds of commercial-grade fireworks from the home of 27-year-old Arturo Cejas and had moved about 10 pounds of “improvised explosive devices” into a special armored truck designed for controlled detonations. But the blast flipped cars and shattered windows over a two-block area, with neighbors describing it as “a really hard earthquake.” The top of the armored vehicle, which weighs about 1 ton, fell blocks away, smashing a roof before landing in a yard. Cejas was held on $500,000 bail; LAPD called on national ATF teams to help with the investigation.

Bad Behavior
Kyle F. Campbell, 31, of Indiana, has been banned from Yellowstone National Park for five years after a series of incidents on June 21 that also landed him with a 60-day jail sentence, five years of unsupervised probation and a fine. The mayhem started with Campbell and his friends being denied access to their kayaks because they were drunk, K2 Radio reported. The group moved to another part of the park, where Campbell threatened a security guard who asked him to drive more slowly. Park rangers placed him in handcuffs and in their patrol car, where he banged his head on the glass until they removed him. One ranger and Campbell got into a struggle, and he was placed under arrest for disorderly conduct. But he wasn’t finished. Back in the patrol vehicle, he tried to kick out the back window and had to be placed in leg restraints, then was forcibly sedated on the way to a hospital to treat his injuries. Rangers found empty alcohol bottles and marijuana containers in Campbell’s car. Send your weird news items with subject line WEIRD NEWS to WeirdNewsTips@amuniversal.com.

This idiom, meaning to ignore undesirable information, is attributed to Admiral Horatio Nelson, the famous British naval hero. Nelson, who was blind in one eye, ignored his fleet commander’s signals to withdraw during a battle with the Dutch, and placing the telescope to his bad eye said, “I have a right to be blind sometimes. I really cannot see the signal.” He won the battle and was promoted over his timid predecessor. As a child, I once tried to ‘turn a deaf ear’ to my grandmother, but she quickly sunk my buttleship.
