Big Names In Town ANY True Blood fans out there? Actor John Prosky of that hit show and also The Mentalist will be starring in Cape May Stage’s A Walk In The Woods later this season. He’ll be joined by brother Andrew Prosky who you might remember from everyone’s favorite alien sci-fi flick, Men in Black. Tickets are on sale now. Mark Jacopec out on one of his daily rides, on the bike he calls his “baby” Aleksey Moryakov
Roll With It
SPRING is less than a month away, which means many things to Cape Islanders… businesses will be reopening, certain bird species will be returning and, most exciting for some, bikes will once again be the preferred mode of transportation. Or at least, they should be. We all know they’re healthier for us and the planet, and they don’t require paying a meter… all reasons, no doubt, that Mark Jacopec thinks “the car thing is getting old.” This spring, he’ll be launching Ride With Mark, a bike tour business that offers a little something for everyone. “I’ve always thought this concept would work well… because of our topography, this is a great spot for biking. But I’ve always talked myself out of it because of
the legal implications and the setting up process,” he told us. “But a lawyer friend of mine, without knowing anything about my plans, told me I needed to do this, and that he would handle all of the legal stuff. That’s when I decided if I’m going to talk the talk, I need to walk the walk.” Or, uh, pedal the pedal, in Mark’s case. He’s a self-described “obsessive” biker who has heaps of ideas for his tours. “We’ll bike to Sunset Beach to look for Cape May diamonds, or to the Red Store to grab lunch, for example,” he told us. Those looking for a killer workout will enjoy a “17 or 18 mile-an-hour rip,” history buffs might be more interested in an informational tour about the city, and foodies will love the meet-the-chefs tour. A certified yoga instructor who teaches at Balance studio and at Atlantic
City High School, Mark is also working on ways to combine biking and yoga — either cycling to a beautiful spot for some seaside savasanas, or instructing people on how to apply the principles of mula energy to the actual peddling motion so that you can “fly like someone is pushing the back of your bike.” There’s only one possible impediment to what sounds to us like a stellar idea… and that’s the condition of one of the island’s most heavily-biked roads. “Parts of Sunset Boulevard are impassable,” Mark told us. “I know every nook and cranny, and I’ve met every piece of glass; since the beginning of January, I’ve had 20 flats. My tires have so much patching, they look like quilts.” Other problems include over-

Subscriber Of The Week
Each week, we will feature a lucky subscriber (and Exit Zero T-shirt winner!) in this spot. This week’s subscriber: Eddie Crews of Parksville, Maryland. How long have you been coming to Cape May? Since 1960, and I lived here for 20 years. Who did you come with? When we visit, we go with family. My wife and I, our kids, and grandkids. Favorite thing about Cape May? We like everything about it. It’s the best place on the East Coast. Least favorite thing? The parking is the worst. Sometimes I think it’s easier to park in Baltimore than Cape May, and Baltimore is a crowded city! Favorite restaurants? All of the food in Cape May is great! But if I had to choose, it would have to be the Lobster House. We go there all the time, because we’re seafood lovers. Favorite stores? Our favorite store is the Exit Zero Store, but we like them all. We always visit the stores on the Washington Street Mall, like the candy store. Those are some of our favorites. Favorite thing about Exit Zero? We love your store, and your magazine! Least favorite thing about Exit Zero? There is none! What’s your T-shirt size? I’m a medium. Want to join our army of subscribers — there are hundreds of them in nearly 30 states! Call us on 609-770-8479 or buy one online at ezstore.us. It’s $50 for all 47 BW issues PLUS our six fabulous color issues, which retail for $4.95. Deal!

Talk Of The Town ? From Page 13 grown vegetation (the reason Mark sports goggles on his daily ride) and potholes. We asked on our Facebook page how others feel about the condition of this road. One woman told us to “leave Sunset Boulevard alone,” but the majority of the responses were from disgruntled bikers, like the man who told us his ride to the lighthouse along this strip was the scariest mile of his life. Someone else said she’s been waiting over 20 years for it to be paved. We got an email from a woman who rides 20 to 30 miles a day, but says she hasn’t been able to take Sunset Boulevard in years, and another man whose grown so frustrated, he’s stopped biking here altogether. We even had a petition for the repair of the road that was circulated in 2011 by Chris Wimberg dropped off to EZ Global Headquarters. Although it was never submitted, it was signed by 64 individuals concerned
about “extrusions of paving” that cause drivers to veer from their lane onto the shoulder, creating a particularly hazardous scenario. Chris told us he’s incurred over $1,000 in damages to his bike on this road. It was enough for us to call the County Freeholders Office, where we spoke with a very pleasant gentleman by the name of Frank McCall, the county’s Public Works Manager. He explained that last fall, at the request of cyclists, there was some milling work done, in which bumps in the road were flattened. He assured us that more milling work would take place this spring, along with the trimming of shrubbery, and
that Cape and Lincoln Avenues would be redone entirely. “One complaint is just as valid as 1,000,” said Frank, who told us he enjoys riding along Sunset Boulevard himself. He asked that if we have any more concerns to be sure to call back, and we’d like to ask the same of our readers. If you don’t feel satisfied with the condition of your favorite biking path by this summer, let the authorities know. In the meantime, please make sure your own property is not a part of the problem… “One of the most common problems, and probably the easiest to rectify,” Mark said, “is rocks from driveways pushed out into the shoulder, making it hazardous for a cyclist to maneuver. Sometimes, the rocks even get pushed up against the tire and are sent like bullets. So, in an effort to clean up the bikeways, we should privatize the effort, meaning property owners should take cyclists into consideration and clean up rocks, branches or encroaching organic

That number is 609-884-0911. In the meantime, get psyched for the first opportunity to ride with Mark, happening on April 7 between 1 and 3pm. The event will be a “flash ride” around the Cape May Point Circle (five times around equals one mile, and you’re welcome to go at your own pace. Immediately afterward will be a launch party with live music. Though it’s free, donations are welcome, and all proceeds will benefit the nonprofit Hope Matters, a local group dedicated to suicide awareness and survivor support. (See our bulletin board on page 20 for details.) “I don’t expect to get rich on this,” Mark said. “I don’t call it a business. I’m a service-oriented
Thursday, February 28, 2013 person, and I’m excited about this. I’m full steam ahead, baby.” For updates, be sure to check out Ride With Mark’s Facebook page at facebook.com/ ridewithmark?fref=ts.
Ship Shape THERE are a lot of wonderful non-profits in Cape May, advocating for everything from film appreciation, to environmental protection, to animal safety (see pages 21-30 for photos from the latest Animal Outreach Shindig). But there’s one nonprofit — a group that’s been doing big things with a small amount of manpower and an even smaller budget — you may not have heard much about. We’re talking about the Cape May Maritime Museum and Education Center, and although the name may be misleading — there is no physical museum space established yet — the group’s big plans for showcasing and safeguarding an important part of our island’s heritage are well underway. This
week, we sat down with Maritime Museum President Kevin Maloney and his wife Sandy, the group’s Administrative Director, to get the details. “The maritime history here is so rich,” Kevin told us. “There’s the military side, the commercial side, boat building, shipwrecks… at one point in the 1800s, there were more fatalities due to shipwrecks off the New Jersey coast than anywhere else in the country. We want to see this maritime heritage preserved in one central area.” It all started in 2010, at a time when discussions about demolition of the old Convention Hall were taking place. Gretchen Whitman, Director of the Nature Center, came up with the idea for a maritime museum, and the hall’s solarium was suggested as an ideal venue, if it could be moved from the beachfront to the Harbor. It never happened, but the city did pass a resolution in support of the development of a Maritime museum. “We established a
diverse, dedicated board,” Kevin said, “we became incorporated, and we decided to keep on pursuing this. We know it can add value to a community. In Shanghai, China, for example, $780 million was recently spent on a maritime center. This is an important part of a culture.” The first order of business for the group was to learn as much as possible. A year and a half ago, they recruited a set of volunteers and began researching and writing the book Cape May’s Maritime Heritage, which Arcadia Publishing has agreed to produce. (Look for it at the end of this year or the beginning of next). “It’s not about making money,” Sandy told us. “We’re going to get the word out, and that’s what’s important to us.” The nonprofit has also hosted a series of lectures held at the Cape May County Historical Society on topics ranging from local lighthouses to area shipwrecks. They’ve been busy restoring the

Talk Of The Town ? From Page 16 2,000-pound, 26-foot wooden monomoy lifesaving boats, circa 1940, they purchased from the Merchant Marine Academy in King’s Point, New York last year. And they’ve been working on securing an area to reconstruct the lifesaving station that was featured in 1876 at the World’s Fair Centennial Celebration in Fairmount Park before being transported here, to the site of the old steamboat landing, where it became a functioning lifesaving station until it was destroyed by a 1954 storm. The new building — the architectural designs for which have been secured from the Library of Congress — is tentatively slated for the area of the old magnesite plant between Sunset and Higbee beaches. “The lifesaving stations came about because of a New Jersey man named William Newell, who sat next to Abraham Lincoln in Congress,” Kevin explained. “He
put forth the Newell Act, which appropriated funds for the establishment of these lifesaving stations which, along with the cutter service, eventually developed into the Coast Guard. One of our goals is to open a window to all these terrific accomplishments.” If all goes as planned, the structure will be the site of reenactments and perhaps even a nightly firing of a Lyle gun cannon. But we would be remiss if we didn’t mention what’s shaping up to be one of the non-profit’s

most anticipated projects: Youth Outreach Boat Building. It was the idea of George Loos, Maritime Museum board member and local boat builder, who explained that boat building is a proud Cape May tradition. “The Jersey cedar and white oak we have here our ideal,” he told us. But the inspiration for this particular endeavor came from overseas, from the Scottish Coastal Rowing Project, in which participants fashion St Ayles Skiffs from easy-to-use timber kits. So far, there are only
seven of these boats being built in the United States, and none of them in New Jersey. “We just discussed the idea with Lower Township High School’s curriculum director yesterday,” George told us, “and they seem really enthused about it. He’s going to be presenting it to the board.” If approved, the program could lend itself to lessons in shop classes, or develop into an extracurricular activity. Eventually, the Maritime Museum is hoping students will be able to compete against other area high schools in rowing competitions that could take place on the harbor. They’re so committed, they’ve agreed to put up the money for the first boat kit, which will cost $3500. “Cape May’s Victoriana isn’t something that necessarily appeals to all kids,” Kevin told us. “But the students sound very excited about this project so far. We’re hoping they’ll feel a great

Talk Of The Town ? From Page 18 sense of accomplishment, and an appreciation for teamwork and project management. The takeaway will be to create a group of individuals who embrace this heritage we have. They are the future, after all. And of course, it will be a fun thing to do.” In the meantime, the group continues the search for an educational, interactive museum space, which will offer small craft exhibits; a library of historical books, manuscripts, maps, photos, and videos; collections from local shipwreck explorers; youth boating safety classes; ongoing marine sciences research and academic conferences; and more than we could possible list here. To keep up to date on the Maritime Museum’s many projects, check out capemaymaritimemuseum.org… and be on the lookout for a group of kids paddling by sometime soon.
Play Time WE had to add another page to our Goings-On guide this month, because we’re moving toward that time of year when so many exciting happenings usher people out of their winter hibernation. One event in particular has caught our attention this week. On March 10, there will be a reading of Bill Sterritt’s new play, The Wreck of the Spanish Armada — examining a Parisian romance between a physician poised to address an international conference and a swashbuckling high value target who leads African pirates — at Joanne Reagan Studios on Seashore Road. Bill, a Cape May native, ran a theatre company here in the late 70s and early 80s, putting on plays at Cape May Stage when it was still the community center, and also at the Chalfonte Hotel. But as a young adult, he left for Carnegie-Mellon University in Boston to study playwrit-
ing. After that, he moved to Los Angeles, where he’s been working as a playwright for 40 years. Now, he’s the artistic director for SPQR Stage Company. Just how successful is Bill? Next Sunday’s event is a warmup before a major reading at Philadelphia’s Society Hill Playhouse on the 11th. And Philadelphia’s Adreienne Theatre on the 12th. And Asbury Park’s Urban Nest on the 13. And — drum roll, please — the Manhattan Theatre Club on the 14th.
But it’s not just about the preparation for Bill... he told us he’s simply looking forward to visiting home, and giving the people of his old stomping grounds the opportunity to see his work first. If you’d like to show a local boy your support, make a reservation by calling 323-793-2153, or emailing spqrstageco@aol. com. Readings are free. And just in case you’re wondering, No, Bill was not in attendance at this year’s Oscars. “We hate the Oscars,” he said. “We’re right around the corner, so we get blocked in by all the limos.” Poor guy!

Talk Of The Town ? From Page 20 morning of February 15. “Luckily,” she told us, “my family is fine and no one was hurt.” But 1,500 were injured, and everyone did receive one heck of a scare. Maria explained that mobile service went down, and it was difficult to reach her family immediately following the incident. Her father called her via Skype about 20 minutes after the fact, still unsure whether the burning object had been a plane on fire. From his car, he’d seen a bright flash. Then, “everything started shaking,” she told us. “Windows cracked and broke into little pieces, cars started beeping, and people were screaming. My mother said it was like the movie Armageddon. People were standing around, looking up, having no idea what would happen next. They were yelling ‘It is the beginning of a new
war,’ or ‘Terrorists!’” Though the meteor landed in Chelyabinsk, one of the largest pieces broke through a thick layer of ice in Chebarkul Lake, Maria told us. “It was 17 meters in diameter and weighed 10,000 tons,” she said. The city is now in the process of repairing a great deal of damage, particularly to its schools, universities, and hospitals. “We also have a zinc plant that looks light the meteor landed right there. My father says if this thing had exploded just a little lower, the entire town could have been destroyed.” But it is, Maria says, a reminder of just how important it is to keep from taking life for granted. “After such accidents,” she told us, “you realize how big the universe is, and how scary it can be to live in this world. You never know just what tomorrow brings. There are some things you can never predict.”

« FUN FACT... Nearly 200 people were part of the Shindig that raised more than $7,000 for the Animal Outreach Adoption Center, according to Managing Director Tom Sims. We asked him about a pup in need a forever home, and he showed us Taz, pictured below. “Taz is a really cool dog,” he wrote. “Even his doctor says he’s special! He s heartworm positive, so he will need a quiet place to weather his treatment. He’s a good boy — loves other doggies and is a gentleman. He can’t be neutered until after his heartworm treatment. His foster mom loves him and so does everyone else.”

The Movie Column
T
This week, Cape May Film Society President Dottie Knapp, offers an Oscar Nightcap
HANKS to everyone who came out to the Cape May Film Festival’s Oscar Party. The Mad Batter’s Mark and Pam Kulkowitz were so generous. Special thanks also to East Lynne Theater. Now how about the show? Host Seth MacFarlane was very humorous, and the opening was great fun, but Billy Crystal is still my all-time favorite host. I wish they had done more regarding the 50 years of James Bond films. Wouldn’t it have been great to have all the actors who played Bond on stage? And they could have wowed the audience with the Bond girls! The tributes to musicals were fantastic — especially the one honoring Chicago (Rene’s eyesight has always worried me; she clearly she can’t see out of those slits!). Shirley Bassey looked and sounded wonderful, but Jennifer Hudson brought down the house — maybe Streisand should have turned over the Marvin Hamlisch tribute to her (who would have wanted to follow an act like Hudson?). Another touching moment
Dan, Mary, and Scott enjoyed the party... more pictures next week! was seeing all the performers from Les Miserables come back to perform. It appears that everything got something. They should be able to buy a bumper sticker as they left that reads, “My movie made the honor roll.” As for the best picture going to Argo, I speculated that it might win when the nominations came out and Ben Afleck didn’t get a best director nomination. Actors must love it when they see Daniel Day Lewis looking normal (ie, not in
character); that means he isn’t taking on another persona and therefore he isn’t making a movie in the same year they are. His acceptance speech was funnier than MacFarlane was all evening. Jennifer Lawrence, 22 years old, where does she go from here? Oh, right, she still has two more Hunger Games to do. And I so wanted Tommy Lee Jones to win best supporting actor, but I confess that I confuse the actor with the character so maybe Senator Stevenson should have gotten an Oscar. Best Dressed? Hands down Michelle Obama — and her presentation was as spectacular as her dress. She was paired with Worst Dressed, Jack Nicholson, who I assume started out the evening taller. Someone should have rolled up his trousers. Thanks again to our Oscar partiers! Many attendees took home great DVD prizes, and some took home films of — shall we say — less notoriety (FDR: American Badass... who knew that project got the green light!). Looking forward to next year’s show — and party!

The Undertow
A
Terry O’Brien’s weekly column... it’s about nothing and everything, all at the same time
T THE risk of sending you all into Stage 4 Beatles Fatigue, I write once more with vigor about the utter amazingness that was Beatles Night, Cape May II. I’ve got a few Great Moments in my life (aside from the obvious; getting married, having kids), and Beatles Night I and II are right at the top of that list, joining such life events as working on Rocky Balboa, appearing on the CW’s “Gimme the MikePhiladelphia!”, and going to Europe for Morey’s. And I define these Great Moments as things that I think are so cool and so beyond what I deserve that I am absolutely sure I’m going to die before God allows me to take part in such an awesome thing. Whatever it is. Know what I mean? As great as Beatles Night I was, and it was great, it felt sort of like my wedding night; lots of prep work, a whole lot of greetings and shaking hands, a few photographs, and then it was over. It was difficult to really enjoy myself what with all the logistics and wrangling of singers. But for this show I was able to breathe a little
bit more. Yes, there was still a lot of herding to be done, but everyone knew the deal. And this time around the Love Me Dudes had to learn “only” 16 songs (we learned 35+ for the first one) so the band had a more relaxed approach while deftly avoiding both the “Sophomore Slump” (great first show followed by a lousy second) and what former Eagles coach Ray Rhodes referred to as “the f*cking Pro Bowl Glide” (a laissez-faire approach ending in disaster). Aside from a few clunkers here and there (“clams”, as my brother Mike O’Brien calls them), the band was toight. I also followed through on my promise not to cry my way through “The Two
Of Us” because (A) we didn’t play it so (B) I cried through “My Sweet Lord” instead. I confessed this to Rob Cummiskey of 5 Hour Jones, who played a kicking mini-set with Dennis McKenna, Walt Sapisi, Jr., Don Shough and Dom Piro (“Julia”, “Mean Mr. Mustard/ Polythene Pam/ She Came in Through the Bathroom Window”, a highlight of the night), who then revealed to me he also gets misty watching certain YouTube videos. This means one thing — Rob and I can never be in a production of Les Miserables together. We’d just weep through the whole frickin’ thing. Other highlights included: Local open mic legend Carl Behrens earning a last-minute berth on the set list and coming through with jangly versions of “And I Love Her” and “I’ve Just Seen A Face”. Carl and I have been circling around one other for many years. Was nice to finally share a stage with him. My Friday axe man Bill Caterini and I did two of my favorites; “If I Fell” and “I’m Only Sleeping.” The thing with Beatles songs, see, is that they sound so simple…

until you try to play or sing them, and then you’re all, “They sing what?” Kate Chew once again shined brightly, yet softly, on her delicate renditions of “Something” and “I Will.” Kate is the real deal. If you get a chance to catch her I strongly suggest you do so before somebody snaps her up and she leaves on tour opening for the Lumineers. Her CD, Lullaby (produced by Bill Caterini) is worth picking up. Frank Mikulak’s “Helter Skelter” was satisfyingly loud and crunchy, and his wife Kate totally bailed us out on “Let It Be.” Kate is on the road to US citizenship (legally, which does still exist) and she and Frank met and fell in love on Ghost Ship. It is also a little-known fact that Will (Ding!) and Holly (Dong!) Knapp met at a Terry O’ke show. I don’t mean to imply that I’m some kind of cupid (though I do enjoy hanging out in a diaper) but if you come with me, folks, love will soon follow… Mary Sexton (Sex Bomb! Whooh!) learned the hard way what happens to those who call out of Beatles Night I at the last minute; they OPEN Beatles Night II. Packed house. No buzz. (Yet beautiful performance regardless.) Mary has done her penance and from now on will be scheduled between 4-6 beers. And there were just so, so many great acts… I wish I had time to expound on all of them; Sean Kolman and Abby Gerding, Matt Holman, Heather Gellura, Frank Scott, Maryanne Franz, Chris South, Leslie DeRose, Sue Gift, Anthony Chiaro… My personal highlight was singing “Silly Love Songs” with the Dudes. I think it sounded amazing, but I was 6 beers in so it could have sounded like cats mating. (I refuse to watch the DVD and ruin the fantasy. Which reminds me; the Beatles Night II 2-disc set is NOW AVAILABLE from Henrie Washington. Hit him up on Facebook.)
Funny Beatles Moment of the Week: For Beatles Night I we played our 60 songs, said “thank you, goodnight”, then 150 people started chanting “Encore!” We had none so we repeated a bunch of songs we’d played earlier. So I said, “Hey Dudes, for Beatles Night II why don’t we learn a few songs and keep them for the end when everyone yells encore!” Right? Perfect plan. Except when I said “thank you, goodnight”, this time 150 people started to leave. So we kind of stood like like, um, okay… Awkward. We played them anyway. So, thanks to everyone who made these shows the great successes they were; singers, players, dancers and drinkers. I truly feel like Beatles Night will become a part of the Cape May vernacular in the next few years, along the lines of Jazz Festival, birding and Burns Supper. Our next “Night” in the Boiler Room will likely be in October. No theme has been picked yet, but the name “Springsteen” keeps popping up. Stay tuned. In the meantime we are working on some out-of-town Beatles shows (Rio Grande, Wildwood, etc.). Next up: Billy Joel Night, Saturday March 30 at the Anglesea Pub. Details to follow. One final note: How much fun did I have at the gig? When I left for sound check at 2pm that Sunday I weighed 235.5. When I got home, I was 229. Kate Chadwick Shout-Out of the Week: Kate has promised me a book which reminds her of my “voice”. Which means either the author has had one too many Stoli O and Clubs while belting out an off-key Cee-Lo tune, or writes in a bratty, sarcastic, unschooled manner. Don’t forget, you can catch me and Bill Caterini every Friday at Westy’s Irish Pub, 5pm-8pm for an open mic happy hour, and Terry O’ke is every Friday at the Rio Station, 9pm-12am. And THIS WEEK, tonight actually (Thursday), Bill and I will be hosting an open mic at Rio Station. Let’s see if we can make it a mini-Beatles Night III! ’Til next week, don’t get caught in The Undertow.

The Old Fogey
D
Ah, those good old Cape May days... by Jackson D’Catur
ON’T get me wrong: I have nothing against children. Why, I even went to school with the brutes. But there is something about today’s verminous youth that I cannot bring myself to like, no matter how much I self-medicate. In My Day, children were meant to be seen, not heard, and often meant to be dismissively referred to, not seen. If one wanted to get an adult’s attention, one had to typewrite an application for a meeting, and have it delivered through one’s nanny. If one was in mortal danger – say, of being snatched by the slave-drivers of Wildwood’s secret Persian Carpet Factories, then a more informal protocol could be invoked and one was allowed to signal for attention silently but with a range of hand signals that approximated semaphore and allowed a youth who was conversant with the code to wave the message: “Help! I am Being Taken By Rogues!” in as little as seven minutes of accurate arm movements. Of course, it was a tricky semaphore and one accidental flip of the elbow would often
mis-translate the message to: “I Am Just Leaving With My Hitherto Unknown Uncle. Do Not Worry!” which was a tad unfortunate. Also, we were not allowed to dress as miniature f lanneurs, which is a trend I deplore in today’s middle-class children. Why, just the other week I was in Congress Hall and saw what I took to be a dapper gent in blazer, button-down white shirt, a South China Sea Yacht Club tie and linen slacks over Chelsea boots. Topping this off was a raffish split hat pulled down low over
Contemporary & Estate Jewelry
his eyes. I immediately hailed the distant dapper Dan, and strode forwards to make my introduction. Well, imagine my surprise when in fact he turned out not to be a stylish adult 50 yards away but a small bizarrely dressed child not arm’s length distance, and I trampled the tiny popinjay underfoot in my accidental haste. I see our city being overrun with those over-indulged monsters with their designer clothes and their misplaced assumption that adults wish to hear their views on anything, and I despair of humanity. So, we are to have a “Code For the Behaviour Of Children in Cape May”. This will include a ration of 100 words a day to any child, 45 of which must be “please” or “thank you”, and involve a dress code giving two options: “Sailor” (Victorian, rather than whorish Gaultier) or “Minuscule Gent/ Lady”. Failure to comply with those rules or any others in the 400-page book will result in flogging. In fact, every visiting child will be flogged, as no child alive could possibly be able to behave for more than 60 seconds, and if they can, they should be flogged for it.

Percey Fear Ants Jazz Band
FUN FACT... We thought the name Percey Fear Ants Band was
a bit unusual, so we did a bit of searching and found that the « Philadelphia-based group used to be called the Perseverance Jazz
Band, but had to change monikers due to a copyright issue. This performance was sponsored by the nonprofit Cape May Traditional Jazz Society, which donates proceeds from their shows to the Community Food Bank of South Jersey. President Bob Ashman told us the organization was able to give about $600 in 2012. “We hope to donate even more this year, but it depends on how many people attend,” he told us. Your chance to do just that? March 10, when the Atlantic City Jazz Band will perform at Cape May’s VFW. For details, check out capemaytraditionaljazzsociety.com.

Here’s To Your Health
A weekly column about getting fit and feeling your best ... by Mark Chamberlain of North Beach Health Club
T
RY assembling a group of people who can play classical banjo while doing back f lips, and you might get a few to show up. You’d think the same level of participation would hold for people who want to — and can — run 50 miles in one day. But on April 13, in Glacier Ridge, Pennsylvania, along mountain trails of crushed stone, asphalt, protruding rocks, and areas where one misstep could have you tumbling into Lake Arthur, 25 athletes will do just that. So how is it possible? I asked Rob Edwards — local teacher and North Beach Crossfitter — how he is going to do it. But first, let’s talk technique/ style. Two-and-a-half years ago, I met Brian McKenzie, an intense dude who’s part Mad Max, part Cali Sufer. He was an avid UltraMarathoner running 100km (62+miles) races. Injuries started to plague him so he went in search of answers. What he discovered is that he was running all wrong. Remember the old phrase, Heel-toe, Heeltoe? After studying successful runners from around the globe, Brian changed his
style, landing on the ball-mid foot instead of reaching out and hitting his heal. He now teaches this style in weekend-long seminars and has converted thousands. (Also see: Pose Method, Whisper Running.) I tried this method myself and had great results, so I shared it with anyone who would listen. One of those lucky folks was Laurie Beers. We would pass each other on Shunpike while running and she adamantly told me, “I don’t ever do more than five miles. That’s my limit!” (People often argue for their limitations). Now I had a challenge. Laurie is a quick study so
with a little treadmill speed work using Tabata (more on this in a later issue), and teaching her foot placement, she walked into the gym and declared, “I did seven miles... and fast!”(Now to try for 10.) Let’s get back to Rob. What will enable him to move across the ground for 50 miles without wheels, chassis and engine attached? “Running clears my head. It’s my meditation,” he told us. Okay. Got the head part... what about the body? His training: 70 miles per week, CrossFit for speed-endurance, some barefoot running for foot strength, 400- and 800-meter sprints, and a lot of water. He also credits correct foot placement as key. Anyone can learn. If you want to start but haven’t run in a while, be patient. Jog from one light pole to the other, then walk to the next. Repeat for 10 to 15 minutes. Within a couple of weeks, you’ll see a great improvement. Stop by the gym and I’ll give you a couple of quick, effective pointers. And if you see 125 people running by you, look sharp... you’re bound to see a backf lipping banjo player soon enough.

The Answer Lady Wise answers to perplexing questions
T
HE Answer Lady invites inquiries from gentle readers on all manner of relationship quandaries, matters of the heart and ethics. If you’d like to send a query, write to info@exitzero.us. Dear Answer Lady I’m a widow, and am slowly getting back into dating. A gentleman recently invited me to dinner. He picked me up on time, was beautifully dressed, and escorted me to the Washington Inn. We had a glass of wine at the bar, were seated at a cozy table, and chatted pleasantly while looking over the menu. Little did I know that he would then ruin things by ordering for me. I was astonished – we are not kids, both in our late 50s. I thought this practice went out ages ago. I found it patronizing. Am I wrong? — Ladyin-waiting Dear Lady The Answer Lady must admit she has always had trouble with this quaint practice as well. Holding a door for a lady, fine. Helping her with her coat: thoughtful. Ordering her dinner for her: patronizing and quasi-
insulting. The Answer Lady orders for children in a restaurant, but only because she doesn’t want to hold up the proceedings while a five-year-old asks the waiter if he has chicken-and-stars soup, and apple sauce with cinnamon sprinkled on top, along with cold water from the kitchen sink, not the bathroom sink, with two ice cubes and a bendy straw. Since you are not a five-year-old, the Answer Lady understands why you might find this antiquated practice off-putting. Perhaps your gentleman friend was trying
to be as polite and formal as possible in the hopes of making a good first-date impression. If everything else about your evening went well, give him another chance. If you start seeing him regularly, speak up about his formality! Dear Answer Lady, My girlfriend and I have a wonderful relationship. We get along well, have a lot in common and have a great sex life... I guess. The fact is, we’ve almost never had sex in daylight. It’s mostly at night, in darkness (or as dark as a room can be made in daylight). Suggestions? — Fumbling Around Dear Fumbling Many women are self-conscious about their bodies, and being completely exposed freaks them out. Gentlemen: Tell her she is beautiful. Or sexy. Or cute, or whatever it is about her that makes you want to get naked with her. Say it. It goes a long way. And try some candles; Good Scents has some sensuous choices. Candlelight is extremely flattering, and before you know it, your beloved may be flinging those blinds open herself.

Christina Walls, owner of Guardian Angels Sitting Service and
a physical therapist with Spectrum Rehabilitation, had her « daughter’s handmade party dress custom-ordered from an online
store called Dimples and Dandelions. “They have beautiful things,” she told us. “Of course, all of the boys at the party were scared of Emelia — there were a lot of feathers — and she just wanted to hug them all!” Emelia was also excited by her cake, the icing for which her conscientious mama made from carrots and avocados. “I don’t let her have sugar yet,” she said. The cake the rest of the guests ate came from A Piece of Cake bakery in Villas, and “they did such a wonderful job.” Happy birthday, Emelia!

Activity Of The Week
I
A weekly column by Catherine Dugan. This week: Play Time.
F YOU’RE stuck in the winter doldrums, play time can be just what you need to change your tack. “Doldrums” is one of those great Victorian-era words. It originally described a slow or sluggish person before sailors used it to describe the area around the equator. In the doldrums, winds are unreliable, and sailors endured a period of inactivity but no real rest, because they had to be prepared for sudden storms. A ship could be stranded for days or weeks. “Down in the doldrums” perfectly captures that feeling of stagnation that can dull your spirits in the middle of winter. “Down in the intertropical convergence zone” is not nearly as poetic. Lift yourself out of the doldrums by playing. Any new hobby can help — draw, paint, or learn chess. If you’re the kind of person who’s fond of words like “doldrums”, play with language. Experts have found that descriptive language sparks activity in the brain. For example, a description of a raspy voice lights up the part of the brain associated with hearing. To light up your brain, sign up for the East
This man is literally down in the doldrums Lynne Theater Company’s Playwriting GetAway, on March 2 and 3. This workshop will exercise your imagination and show you how to really make a scene. The event is held at the Henry Sawyer Inn and encourages participants to create 10-minute plays, which are then read by actors from ELTC. The cost is is $399 for two people and $299 for one, which includes accommodations, breakfast, afternoon tea and treats
for two nights, and the workshop fee. The fee is $150 without accommodations. For more information, go to eastlynnetheater.org. Maybe you’d rather play with someone else’s words. Take part in ELTC’s Murder Mystery Weekends, March 8 or March 22, led by a retired Philadelphia police detective. Contact ELTC for more information. Or, roam the streets of Cape May to help Sherlock Holmes solve The Case of the Anima Orbis on March 15-17. Packages start at $270 per person, double occupancy. Contact the Mid-Atlantic Center for the Arts at 800-2754278 for more information. If your kids are the ones in the doldrums, take them to see the performances when the Cape May Stage Winter Children’s Theater presents Cinderella March 16, 17, 23 and 24. Contact Cape May Stage at 609-884-1341 for more information. And if you can hold out until March 29, Elaine’s dinner theater returns with Cinderelvis. A little play time may be just the thing to put the wind back into your sails. Next week: A March Massage

Betty Ann and Ed Sherretta
« FUN FACT... Betty Ann and Ed Sherretta met as high school students at Lower Township High School. Now, they have three children, 12 grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. We asked them the secret to a 50-year marriage and this is what they said, “Family, friends and travel.” The couple has been to over 20 countries since they retired seven years ago. “We weren’t always able to do that,” Betty Ann said. “But if you start out eating tomato soup, you can end up traveling the world!”

LOUIE is a one-year-old lab mix who is tan in color and has a delightful personality. He had been adopted from another shelter in the past, but came in as a stray.

Stop by the shelter and give this guy his second chance at a home. His adoption fee is $95.

TYSON is a one-year-old mix whose joyous exuberance is contagious. Tyson is an extremely lively and friendly boy who would need his new owner to give him daily exercise, consistent training and calm discipline.

He’ll bring entertainment to your life, for $95.
«
GERONIMO is a smart one-year-old pit bull terrier who came to the shelter as a stray.

Bird Droppings
I
The weekly report from the world’s birdwatching capital... by Seymore Thanu
N THE next few weeks, you are going to be hearing a lot about the Red Knot. It’s a shorebird, one of a group of birds that are specialized to thrive in that mercurial world that is sometimes ocean, sometimes shore. If you’ve ever watched those small sandpipers that play tag with the waves, you’ve seen shorebirds. And if you have seen them, then you have a pretty good idea what Red Knot look like. Take a Sanderling. Add three inches and a bit of bulk. Gussy it up in spring with a silver back and a robin red breast and you have Calidris Canutus, Red Knot. Well, not quite. Red Knot is a distinct species. A highly specialized one, too. While Sanderling and knot are similar, it’s the differences that set them apart and make them unique species. Welcome to the marvelous diversity of our natural world. Okay, so what makes Red Knot so special? For one thing, habitat. When it comes to finding a habitat to sustain them, most of the planet’s species cluster around the

temperate middle latitudes. Red Knot go to extremes. They breed on the tundra of the islands of the Canadian Archipelago. That’s about as far north as you can go before you hit ice. They winter in Tierra del Fuego, the southern tip of South America. That’s about as far south as you can go before you hit ice. Twice each year, they migrate between
these poles. It’s a round-trip journey of around 22,000 miles. No matter how you measure this, it’s a long way for a bird to travel. No matter how you plot it, there are places en route that Red Knot must stop and feed. That’s where Cape May comes in. The Delaware Bay is the Red Knot’s final fueling depot. The last gas stop between here and the Arctic. They need to eat enough to get where they are going. They need to put on a little extra fat so that they can establish territories, find mates, and start the process of making more Red Knot because when knot arrive in the High Arctic, spring is still several weeks behind. The whole strategy hinges on finding an abundance of food in Delaware Bay. And wouldn’t you know, there is such an energyrich food source for them there — the eggs of the Horseshoe Crab. Thirty years ago, there was an abundance of crabs and eggs. Red Knot, 150,000

Bird Droppings ? From Page 75 strong, gorged themselves on eggs and packed on the fat they needed. Then a period of accelerated harvest ensued. Crab numbers diminished. Eggs diminished. Year by year, Red Knot diminished. In 2011, the knot in Delaware bay were down to 11,000 birds. End of story? No. Beginning of recovery. About a decade ago, a lot of people decided it was time to call a time-out. Stop the harvest of crabs. Afford a measure of protection for feeding shorebirds. Let the natural world reset the bar, and re-establish a healthy balance between crabs and birds. Which in fact, the natural world is very good at doing. It’s why things that transpire without a lot of fussing or finagling are said to happen “naturally.” In the late 1800s, plume-bearing birds, like herons and egrets, were slaughtered for the fashion industry. The shooting was halted. Within half a century, the birds recovered. In the middle of the 20th century, the widespread use of DDT caused a dramatic reduction in raptor populations. DDT was banned. Within three decades, most raptor populations had recovered. In the 1990s, Horseshoe Crabs were

The eggs of the Horseshoe Crab are an important food source for the Red Knot diminished by harvest and shorebird numbers fell. A decade after a moratorium was placed on the harvest, horseshoe crab numbers were showing signs of recovery. And Red Knot? So long as Horseshoe Crabs are allowed to continue their re-population (it takes a female horseshoe crab about 9 years before she can reproduce), I would say the birds recovery is assured. I’ll even go so far as to say it’s “natural.” Bet against me if you’d like. In a decade or two, we’ll see who wins. If you’d like to learn more about the Red

FUN FACT ... On the day of his surprise party, a friend took
Dave Bell to the Washington Street Mall. They stopped by « The Pilot House in order to “buy a T-shirt”, and Dave was shocked
to see 80 friends and family members waiting to celebrate him. “He’s just so kind and generous,” Dave’s wife Tess told us. “We had a poster there of 60 reasons we all love Dave.” One of the coolest? He salvages the pumpkins used for decorating the Washington Street Mall around Halloween time so that they don’t get thrown out. Then, he cooks them down, freezes them, and eventually bakes bread, which he distributes to friends all over Cape Island. (Hey, how about a delivery to EZ Global Headquarters?) Happy birthday, Dave!

Sharp Note singing is a kind of four-part a cappella music that was popular around the time Cape May was being settled.
