Laurel native Ned Davis is recalled as poet, good friend By Deborah Mitchell He was a poet and writer, a conversationalist, an outdoorsman. He was public spirited, a family member and a friend. According to Sen. Thurman Adams Jr. (D - Bridgeville), Edward R. “Ned” Davis was an institution. On Oct. 18, 2006, at the age of 78, Laurel native Davis passed away at his Dover home. Davis came from an old, longestablished Sussex County family. He was a graduate from Laurel High School, served in the U.S. Marine Corps and went on to college to study

English, philosophy and journalism. He worked as a columnist and reporter for the Delaware State News and was Dover bureau chief and capital correspondent for the News Journal in Wilmington. Later, he became press secretary and chief assistant to Gov. Charles L. Terry Jr. His career continued when he accepted a position as vice president of corporate relations for Rollins International. In 1974, he founded Ned Davis Associates, a public relations and legislative services firm. From 1972 to 1988 he was Delaware Democratic National Committeeman. According to Adams,
Davis was always a Democrat but open to talk to anyone who needed help. Adams had a long friendship with Davis. “My time with Ned goes back to 1946 to Boys State,” he said. “He was a conversationalist and could recite poetry,” Adams added. “He was tremendous. A couple of weeks ago he called and asked when I would be in Dover. He said he would love to talk. I went to see him and we talked and talked and had a great time. He was just enjoyable to spend time with and talk to.” Davis’ nephew Clay Davis III, an Continued on page 10

Laurel officials are working toward filling the position of town manager. In recent weeks the Laurel Town Council has interviewed eight potential candi-
dates for the job. Mayor John Shwed said that he and the council have met with candidates in two interview sessions so far, Monday, Oct. 16, and Thursday, Oct. 19. He said the interview process will narrow the candidates for town manag-
er down to two to three prospects and then the full council will vote on hiring a final candidate to become the town’s chief operation’s officer. Shwed said the process could take another week to 10 days.

Burning leaves is against state law Fires generate carbon monoxide, carcinogens With autumn leaves beginning to fall, DNREC’s Air Quality Management Section is reminding Delaware residents that burning leaves is prohibited statewide. The leaf burning ban, in effect since February 1995, is important to protect people, animals and plants from harmful chemicals that are produced by open burning. The burning of leaves produces a considerable amount of airborne particulate matter, carbon monoxide and at least seven carcinogens. Some of these chemicals react with nitrogen oxides in the air to pro-
duce ground-level ozone, a respiratory irritant particularly dangerous to children and the elderly. Composting is one of the best alternatives to disposing of leaves. You can compost leaves with yard trimmings and certain food scraps. When properly composted, these wastes can be turned into natural soil additives for use on lawns and gardens, and as potting soil for house plants. Finished compost can improve soil texture, increase the ability of the soil to absorb air and water, sup-
press weed growth, decrease erosion, and reduce the need to apply commercial additives. For more information on composting, visit DNREC’s Web site or call 302-7399403. DNREC also reminds everyone that in addition to the ban on leaf burning there is a year-round ban on burning refuse such as old lumber, trash or garbage, grass and tree stumps. Campfires, cooking fires, and bonfires are legal year-round, unless prohibited by local, town or county ordinances; however, only clean, unpainted wood, or charcoal is to be used in these fires.
Major Kurt Reuther, chief of DNREC’s Enforcement Section, warns that environmental protection officers will be on the lookout for violators and will be citing those performing illegal open burning activities. Penalties in Magistrate Court for conviction of a first violation of open burning regulations range from $50 to $500 in fines, plus a criminal record, while second offenses carry $500 to $1,500 fines, and a criminal record. Illegal burning can be reported by calling 1-800-662-8802. Cellular phone users can call #DNR, toll-free.
Housing authority offering 40-year mortgages Gov. Ruth Ann Minner has announced that the Delaware State Housing Authority (DSHA) is offering 40-year mortgages for the first time to new home buyers through the single highest bond issue in the agency’s history — $85 million that will help 500 families purchase their first home. The primary advantage of a 40-year fixed rate mortgage is making the monthly payments more affordable without taking on the risk of an adjustable rate. Similar to the better known 30-year conventional mortgage, the key features of this new product include saving money each month
and providing more purchasing power. The 40-year fixed mortgage also appeals to buyers with small down payments. In addition, participants can choose the assisted loan with the 40-year mortgage, which provides a grant equal to 3 percent of the mortgage amount for a slightly higher interest rate. Minner said, “This new innovative mortgage product will provide the help families need to own a home. It is through home ownership that many families first experience the satisfaction of true independence and stability. I am thrilled to be able to announce this initiative to place the

‘American Dream’ within reach of so many hard-working Delawareans.” DSHA has surpassed an all-time high in affordable mortgage funding made available to reach even more first-time home buyers. This week, DSHA issued an additional $85 million worth of “Zero Point,” below-market interest rate mortgages, now available as low as 5.69 percent to firsttime home buyers with low- and moderate-incomes. This marks the forth issue this year, with $60 million released in January, $80 million in April, and another $60 million in July, bringing the total issued in 2006 to
$285 million. Sandy Johnson, DSHA director, said, “Not every mortgage product fits the needs of every person… we’re working to create a broader range of products so that customers can find the right mortgage to suit their specific needs. By the end of this year DSHA will help more than 1,600 families buy a home.” DSHA offers other programs to assist with down payment and closing costs.

Venison can be donated to feed Delaware’s hungry Last year, Sportsmen Against Hunger gave away 30,000 pounds of meat With deer hunting season currently under way, Delaware’s Sportsmen Against Hunger is encouraging hunters to share their harvest by donating venison to Delawareans in need. The venison is distributed by DNREC’s Division of Fish and Wildlife to more than 21 charitable organizations throughout the state. According to Greg Moore, wildlife administrator with the Division of Fish and Wildlife, the Delaware Sportsmen Against Hunger chapter was formed in 1992 by a coalition of sporting groups, with DNREC as the primary sponsor. Last year, more than 30,000 pounds of venison were donated, providing more than 120,000 meals for the hungry. “Delaware’s hunters have been willing to share their good fortune with others,” said Moore. “Over the past 13 years, the program has provided more than 800,000 nutritious meals for needy Delawareans. We are most grateful to hunters for helping fight hunger in our state, and we encourage them to participate again this season.” Hunters not lucky enough to harvest a deer can help the project by donating money. Funds donated will be used to pay for direct program expenses and to buy additional food. No donations will be used for administrative expenses. Recently, the division finalized the deer donation locations for participating hunters, including the Augustine Wildlife Area in New Castle County, the Woodland Beach Wildlife Area in Kent County, and three locations in Sussex County, Redden State Forest, Assawoman Wildlife Area, and Trap Pond State Park. In addition, successful hunters can also take their deer to any participating private butcher shop. Volunteers are also needed to assist with distribution. For more information or to volunteer for the Delaware Sportsmen Against Hunger Program, contact Wayne Lehman, 302-284-1077 (Kent and New Castle counties) or Joe Shockley, 302-537-3217 (Sussex County).To request a brochure, contact Michael Friel, 302-834-8433.
Deer hunting open will collect meat for shelters For the second consecutive year, licensed Delaware hunters will be eligible to win prize money and also help feed the hungry during the Delaware Whitetail Open. The Delaware Whitetail Open is a hunting contest that starts on Nov. 10 (opening day of the shotgun season) and continues through Nov. 18. The event will be held at Sussex Irrigation in Laurel. Pre-registered hunters can check-in his or her deer each night of the Whitetail Open between 6:30p.m. and 9 p.m. The three heaviest does harvested each day will win prize money and the heaviest doe of the weeklong contest is eligible to win an expected top prize of $1,000. There will also be additional contests for heaviest buck, total weight of an individual’s five deer and a team competition. Last year’s contest paid out over $3,200 in prize money. Most of the harvested deer will be processed locally and the meat distributed to homeless shelters and churches to assist in feeding the less fortunate. Money raised from the contest will help offset the processing fees. The entry fee is $40 per hunter. Applications can be picked up at Sussex Irrigation in Laurel. For additional information or to enter the contest, call David Brown at 302-381-2454 or during the day at 302875-3856.

North Laurel teacher is nominated for national award Winning would mean $35,000 in prize money North Laurel Elementary School physical education teacher Garrett Lydic is in the running for a national award. He has been selected as Delaware’s nominee for the NEA Member Benefits-NEA Foundation Award for Teaching Excellence, a national award presented annually by the NEA Foundation, created by the National Education Association in 1969. The award recognizes teachers from across the nation for their instructional expertise, creativity and innovation in the classroom, and leadership skills. Lydic’s nomination was made by the Delaware State Education Association (DSEA), the National Education Association’s state affiliate in Delaware. North Laurel Elementary School will receive a $1,000 gift from the NEA Foundation as a result of Lydic’s nomination. The NEA Foundation accepts nominations of one educator from each state for the award. Five of the nominees will be selected as finalists and will receive the Horace Mann-NEA Foundation Award for Teaching Excellence along with a personal gift of $10,000 from the NEA Foundation and the Horace Mann Companies. From those five, one is selected to receive the NEA Member Benefits-NEA Foundation Award for Teaching Excellence and an ad-
ditional $25,000. All the nominees will be honored at the NEA Foundation gala on Feb. 8, 2007, in Washington, D.C. North Laurel Elementary School principal, Dr. Cristy Greaves, said that the sixyear veteran public school teacher certainly represents the qualities required to win the award. “Garrett possesses the knowledge and skills of a highly effective teacher, demonstrating excellence, competence and caring,” she said. “He is also a voracious and avid learner, always seeking to expand his horizons in search of approving his ability to reach and teach all students.” DSEA president, Barbara Grogg, agrees. “Garrett is special in many ways,” she said. “He blends knowledge, excitement, creativity, and passion into his life’s work. He is a stellar example of what every teacher aspires to be.” Lydic has shown a strong commitment to his local, state and national associations throughout her professional career. He is a member of the Laurel Education Association. As Delaware State Teacher of the Year, he has spoken to a joint session of state legislators, state and local school boards and members of teacher education programs.

Lydic is the state’s nominee for a national award from the National Education Association Foundation. Because of his nomination, North Laurel will receive $1,000 from the foundation. File photo
“It’s always exciting to recognize the work of dedicated and successful educators,” said NEA president Reg Weaver. “The NEA Member Benefits-NEA Foundation Award for Teaching Excellence allows all of us to honor truly outstanding teachers and to remember that they are representative of the vast number of school employees who go to school each
morning totally dedicated to creating great public schools for every child.” The NEA Foundation was created by the National Education Association in 1969 and is sustained by an annual $1 contribution from each of NEA’s 3.2-million members as well as contributions from corporate partners.

50 sweepstakes entries a week pays off in new car By Lynn R. Parks In the 16 years since he started entering sweepstakes contests, Henry Bounds has won a pricey snowboard. A bike. Signed footballs. Hats and T-shirts. Soccer balls. A diamond ring. And a one-week trip to Williamsburg, Va., over the July Fourth holiday. But none of this compares to his latest win, a brand new 2007 Chrysler Sebring coupe. “It was 2 in the morning and I was checking my e-mail,” said Bounds, 64, Laurel. “My eyes were a little tired, but when I read that message that said that I had won, my eyes flew wide open.” Bounds has yet to see his car. But he has sent off the notarized statement that was required by the Ask Dr. Z Dream Car Sweepstakes, sponsored by Daimler Chrysler. In fact, he sent off two statements, afraid that the first one was not going to be delivered by the deadline. And Daimler Chrysler has announced through a press release that Bounds is one of nine winners in the contest, which gave away three Sebrings, three Dodge Challengers and three Jeep Wranglers. More than 24,000 people entered the sweepstakes contest, Daimler Chrysler said. “I drive a [Buick] Park Avenue and my wife and I had been talking about getting a new car, and going to look at a Chrysler,” Bounds said. “When I saw this contest, I thought I would give it a try to see what would happen.” Bounds is no stranger to sweepstakes.
He enters 50 or more a week, and sometimes wins something two or three times a month, he said. “I never know what the UPS man might bring me,” he said. “It’s like Christmas all year long.” Bounds is often quick to share his bounty. His wife, Betty, was the recipient of the diamond ring. And when he won 500 Baby Ruth candy bars, he opened the box right in the driveway and gave some to the delivery man. “I said to the UPS man, ‘Do you like Baby Ruth candy bars?’” Bounds said. “He said, ‘I love them,’ so we opened the carton right there and I gave him two boxes of 24 candy bars. “In fact, all my friends were eating Baby Ruths for a long time.” Bounds, who retired from the DuPont Co. after 40 years at the nylon plant in Seaford, got hooked on sweepstakes after subscribing to the “Contest Newsletter,” a magazine offered by Publishers Clearinghouse (from which, incidentally, he never won anything). The magazine listed all the sweepstakes that were open and gave instructions to enter them. That magazine no longer exists. Now, Bounds follows tips from the “Sweepstakes Newsletter,” a publication that comes out twice a month and that lists contests and hints on best ones to enter. As a subscriber, Bounds can also access the magazine’s web site, with links to online contests. Bounds figures that he spends a few hours a day filling out sweepstakes entries.

“There are so many out there,” he said. And even after so many contests entered, he still finds his hobby fun.
“This doesn’t cost anything, except the price of envelopes and stamps,” he said. “And it is exciting. I love to do it.”

Business Johnny Janosik World of Furniture is opening Furniture retailer Johnny Janosik, announces the Grand Opening of the East Coast’s largest furniture showroom at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 28. The store will showcase 180,000square-feet of home furnishings, bedding, accessories, and state of the art Home Theatre rooms under one roof. Interior design services will also be offered for the ulti-
mate shopping experience. The new store will feature the east coast’s largest home furnishings selection under one roof, with furniture priced for the budget-minded family as well as designer lines for the upscale home. The Johnny Janosik corporation has been family owned and operated since 1953. For 53 years, Johnny Janosik has
been recognized as “The Longest Store On the Shore with the Shortest Prices,” representing the most respected names in quality home furnishings to fit every lifestyle and budget. There are three stores that bear the Janosik name: One in Laurel, and two in Dover. The corporation has over 300 employees in the stores and warehouses.
The Janosik family has given support to the local community in many ways. Through the Janosik Family Foundation, a key supporting member of the Delaware Community Foundation, they formulated a scholarship program for local students to attend college. The Johnny Janosik corporation also supports the Laurel State Service Center and the Good Samaritan Shop.
County leaders announce aviation training program Sussex County government announced Tuesday, Oct. 24, it is working with the state’s largest community college and a local manufacturer to create an aviation training program that would bolster Delaware’s labor market with more highly skilled and specialized workers. Sussex County Council, Delaware Technical & Community College and PATS Aircraft LLC are in the early stages of forming a partnership to create an airframe mechanics associate’s degree program as part of the curriculum offered at DelTech. The program would be the first of its kind in Delaware, allowing students to receive the training they need to become certified airframe mechanics without having to go to schools as far away as Washington, D.C. Airframe mechanics are trained to work on all parts of an airplane, with the excep-

tion of the engine, propeller and instruments. The Federal Aviation Administration certifies airframe mechanics, all of whom must be trained in an FAA-approved program. No such program exists in Delaware today. The announcement was made during the Sussex County Council’s weekly meeting. Incoming County Administrator David B. Baker said the establishment of such a program is vital to the continued success of companies like PATS Aircraft, and could help the county expand the number of businesses at the county-owned airport and Sussex County Industrial Airpark near Georgetown. “There’s a real need for this kind of training right now, and this would help meet the need,” said Baker, noting PATS Aircraft currently needs as many as 40 skilled airframe mechanics. “Sussex County is pleased to be part of a solution that helps our businesses and planning and supervision of daily operations. Since its inception in 2004, he has acquired, designed, and developed over $200 million of real estate. By sharing his experiences and views on business ownership Nally hopes to help “stoke the passion necessary for successful entrepreneurial ventures.” This series is a supplemental offering of the new Entrepreneurship Program at Delaware Tech.

While details of the agreement among the parties involved still must be worked out, the partnership would have DelTech developing the curriculum, with Sussex County government providing space at its Sussex County Airport. PATS Aircraft, meantime, would provide technical assistance, as well as lend the use of some of its facilities and resources for training. Mark Ryan, vice president for hangar operations at PATS Aircraft, located at the Sussex County Industrial Airpark, said the partnership is a good opportunity for the business community, the education com-
munity and the local government. “I think what we’re trying to do here is get some home-grown mechanics, people who don’t want to leave the area, but want a good job,” said Ryan, whose firm installs auxiliary fuel tanks in large corporate jets. Dr. Ileana Smith, vice president of DelTech and the campus director at the Owens Campus in Georgetown, said the formation of the program is the result of teamwork among the private and public sectors. PATS Aircraft this past spring proposed that DelTech create the program, with input and assistance from the company. “That’s our job, to be responsive to the market demands of the community,” Dr. Smith said. “That’s what Delaware Tech is about.”

Smart Drive officials Pete Booker and Karen Busby (seated) recently visited Sussex Technical High School. Standing: driving teachers Randy Schaeffer and Kevin Elzey, media broadcasting students Ben Toomey (Georgetown) and Schyler Conaway (Seaford), and teacher Merrill Moore.
Helping teens to drive better Sussex Technical High School has joined 32 high schools throughout Delaware this year to encourage students to participate in the driver enhancement teenage driver program called SmartDrive. SmartDrive is a free, online program designed especially for students who already have their driver’s license. The program’s Road Rally series is a set of four online modules – three for students and one bonus module for parents – which challenges the young driver’s experience with road rules, judgment and general common sense. The program runs from November through January. Each month, a 90-minute lesson will appear online for the teenager that will reinforce his driver’s education. Each module must be completed by the student and submitted electronically by the deadline. The program features case studies, graphics, questions and video clips to encourage students to develop their analytical and judgmental skills with regard to motor vehicle operation. The top three schools, measured by the highest percentage of performance, will be selected as SmartDrive Schools of the Year and earn $1,500, $1,000 and $500 for their after-prom parties. Scholarships will be awarded to two Smart-Drive Students
of the Year in the state. Other awards include getaway vacations, concert and theme park tickets, electronics, CDs and gift certificates. Winners are selected monthly, and randomly, from those who submit their modules. All students who complete the program will receive an insurance discount, T-shirt and certificate of completion. SmartDrive was conceived by Pete Booker, CEO of Delmarva Broadcasting Company, in early 2004 in response to a rash of deaths of Delaware high school students in vehicle crashes. He solicited the expertise of driver safety education professionals to develop a program to educate and motivate young drivers to operate cars at a higher level. On Oct. 10, Booker and Karen Busby, program coordinator, were at Sussex Tech to kick off the SmartDrive program at the school. While there, they worked with media broadcasting students to produce three 30-second commercials to promote the program. Participation in SmartDrive by Sussex Tech students will be supervised by driving education teachers Merrill Moore, Randy Schaeffer and Kevin Elzey. To join SmartDrive, log on to the Web site at www.smartdrivede.org. Modules begin on Nov. 1.
The Frederick Douglass Elementary PTA will host a Scholastic Book Fair from Monday, Oct. 30, to Friday, Nov. 3, in the media center of the Seaford school. The theme will be, “Reading Rain Forest Wild for Books!” The book fair will offer specially priced books and educational products, including new releases, award-winning titles, children’s classics, interactive software, adult books and current best sellers from more than 150 publishers. Attendees can purchase books for teachers through the Classroom Wish List and One for Books activities. The book fair will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. It will also be open Thursday, Nov. 2, from 6 to 8 p.m.
Markell, the Center for Economic Education and Entrepreneurship, and the Delaware Financial Literacy Institute forged alliances with banks to open “branch offices” for students to make weekly deposits. The program provides children with instruction in financial management and gives them the chance to serve as tellers and open savings accounts at no cost. On Sept. 28, Discover opened a branch office at Woodbridge Elementary School, Greenwood. “With the age of plastic, online and phone banking, and direct deposit, children today rarely see the workings of a bank,” said Markell. “The Bank At School program brings a bank to the children and is a critical step in nurturing the ethic of saving.”
Students to learn about savings SHS grad gets UD scholarship On Oct. 25, elected officials, educators, business leaders and parents joined the students at Phillis Wheatley Middle School, Bridgeville, to celebrate the grand opening of Discover Financial’s “branch office” at the school. This bank opening marks the 34th opening for the Delaware Bank At School program. The Delaware Bank At School program began in 1998. State Treasurer Jack
Jessica J. “JJ” Morgan is the recipient of the Townsends Inc. Agricultural Sciences Scholars Award at the University of Delaware. This $1,000 scholarship is awarded on the basis of academic performance and is renewable for two additional years. JJ is a 2004 graduate of Seaford High School and is a sophomore pursuing a bachelor of science degree in wildlife conservation.

From left: Clay Davis, now an attorney in Georgetown, Ned Davis, Edward Davis, a magistrate in Georgetown, Janie Davis holding baby Rosemary Davis and Billy Davis.

attorney, recalls times sitting in the family library discussing literature and history with his uncle. “I remember a magical time, the snow was falling. Ned gathered my brother Edward and I into our home library and read to us ‘The Christmas Carol.’ Now I read the story each Christmas, even if I am alone. “My early memory of Uncle Ned was when I was about 3. We lived on a farm known as the Game Farm. Ned would come to visit and he always brought me a little something. He was good to Edward and I.” Clay said that his grandmother died when he was a captain stationed in Germany. “The Red Cross turned me down for assistance to come home, but Uncle Ned made calls through generals to NATO that got to my company commander and got me home for the funeral.” According to Clay Davis, Ned liked to tell the story of when he was working as a dishwasher at a country club. Said Davis, “He got fired and was walking down the street when Gov. Carvel was passing by in his sedan with the bishop. Gov. Carvel asked him where he was going and Ned replied, ‘To look for a job.’ Gov. Carvel invited him to lunch and ended up taking him to the place he just got fired from.” Frank Calio, Delaware’s Commissioner of Elections, described Ned Davis as a down to earth, honest, straightforward man. “Ned never forgot where he came from,” Calio said. “He spoke with confidence, his words were accurate, he made what he said count. He was a man that knew how to work with and for people.” During Calio’s newspaper career, Davis was an influence, he added. “He led me to understand people, how to write directly. He taught me how to accept criticism and how to bring feeling to people,” said Calio.
Ned Davis
A statement issued by Congressman Mike Castle said that Davis was a trusted advisor in Delaware political circles. “Throughout the years he always had the best interest of Delawareans at heart,” Castle added. “Although [he was] a strong and resolute Democrat, I was personally very appreciative of the quiet counsel I received from Ned over the years on many important issues. One of Ned’s great loves was poetry and I will never forget listening to him recite poems at dinners at Woodburn when I was governor.” “Ned Davis was a rare breed,” said Sen. Joseph Biden. “He was an educated man with an acute intellect, but he was also a man of conscience who never forgot what he believed and why he believed it. He was absolutely centered.” Said Dover resident Lois Huffman, “Ned Davis never failed to take time to greet you and ask how you were. His smile won you over.” “If you met Ned, you met a friend,” Clay Davis added. Funeral services for Edward R Davis were held Sunday, Oct. 22, in the Rollins Center at Dover Downs.

Woman can have a day-care, but she has to install a fence By Tony E. Windsor The Laurel Planning and Zoning Committee approved a recent request from a Laurel woman to open a day-care center at her home on West Eighth Street. However, that approval did not come without stipulations. During a recent Planning and Zoning Committee meeting, Mrs. Jimmie Smith of the 500 block of West Eighth Street asked for a special use request to convert her home into a day-care center. She said that her goal was to operate the center Monday through Saturday from 6:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. for up to six children from ages 6 months to 12. In response to Laurel Code Enforcement Official Paul Frick’s request, Smith contacted neighbors and solicited comments about her plans to open a daycare. She has been given a state child care license and said she will comply with all state regulations. Committee member Don D’Aquila asked Frick if the special use request could be approved with special conditions. He said he feels because there will be children as young as 6 months old, Smith should be expected to put up a fence around her yard. Frick said the committee certainly has the right to attach stipulations. “This committee can place any conditions it likes, but we have none at present,” he said. “You would just need to state that the approval is dependent on a fence being put up at the daycare.” Committee member Stacy NorthamSmith questioned whether the Planning and Zoning Committee can enforce such a stipulation. “I do not believe the state has
a requirement that a fence be put up, so I am not sure we can supersede that and make the request dependent on a fence,” she said. “I question whether we can do this when we do not require other daycares to have a fence.” D’Aquila challenged Northam-Smith. “This is a special use request, so I am sure we have the right to place stipulations on an approval for special use,” he said. “I am concerned that we have children as young as 6 months old and I think we need to assure a safe environment for them. I for one would like the approval to have a stipulation that Ms. Smith will install a fence in her backyard. I am interested in safety, so I am not retracting my recommendation for having a fence installed. There is one adult and six children, so I think a fence is a matter of safety.” The motion to approve Smith’s special use request was passed 4 to 3 with Northam-Smith, Jeff Hill and Bruce Wright voting in opposition. NorthamSmith said she was not voting to support the measure because the Delaware Office of Childcare Licensing does not require fences to be installed at day-care centers, so the town should not expect anything different. Wright and Hill both expressed support for giving Smith an adequate window of time to have the fence installed. “I believe we should give this lady time to get her day-care business up and running before expecting her to install a fence,” Hill said. The committee stipulated that Smith have the fence up by June 30, 2007.

County recognized for sound finances Sussex County, for the fourth year in a row, has won the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR). Its most recent award is for fiscal year 2005. The award is among the highest forms of recognition for governmental accounting and financial reporting. The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada, based in Chicago, awarded the certificate of achievement to the county in July. Sussex County Council formally received the award at its Tuesday, Oct. 17, meeting. The CAFR was judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the association’s program. The award is an acknowledgment of Sussex County’s comprehensive annual financial report, or
CAFR. The document includes the county’s annual audit, showing assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. It also contains information about county demographics and the local economy. That information helps those reviewing the report – such as investors – to better gauge the county’s financial condition. “Once again, I am pleased to report Sussex County is meeting the standards of good accounting practices,” said county finance director David B. Baker. “This award should reinforce the public’s confidence in its government, and give them further assurance that their tax dollars are being well spent and are well accounted for.”

Health Be prepared, because accidents do happen By Dr. Anthony Policastro Life is unpredictable. Accidents are things we do not think about. That is especially true for young individuals. However, from age 1 through age 35 accidents are the leading cause of death. Sometimes both parents are struck down in an accident. Young parents tend to not think about this. For that reason, they are not always prepared when tragedy strikes. They often have more tragedy while trying to sort out things during the period after an accident. There are a number of documents that are important for young parents to think about. The most important of these is a will. Many people think of wills as something you do to leave money to heirs. However, there is an equally important role. That is related to guardianship for children. Perhaps one set of grandparents would make good guardians. Perhaps that would be an aunt or uncle. Perhaps it might be an older sibling. However, if there is no will, several things could happen. One is that there might be conflict about who will care for
A medical power of attorney applies if someone is incapacitated. It does not apply to individuals who have a terminal illness. the children. Another is that someone other than who the parents would have wanted might care for the children. This is a good reason to have a will. Another document is what is known as a medical power of attorney. This gives someone the right to make medical care decisions for an individual who is incapacitated. In most situations spouses do this for each other. However, that might not be the case for a single parent. That might not be the case if both parents become incapacitated in an accident. It is important to make it clear as to who should make these decisions. A medical power of attorney applies if

someone is incapacitated. It does not apply to individuals who have a terminal illness. In those cases there are two kinds of decisions to be made. Some of those are medical. Others are related to life sustaining treatment. The relevant document in this situation is what is called an advanced directive. It applies in end-of-life situations when the patient is incapacitated. It is a little different than the medical power of attorney for that reason. There are also financial powers of attorney. These allow someone to manage money for the person who writes that power of attorney. Sometimes individuals want one person
to make medical decisions and another to make financial decisions if they become incapacitated. Therefore, the two documents are different. One thing that I frequently see is someone who has a financial power of attorney but not a medical power of attorney. They come into the hospital, but no medical decisions can be made based upon the financial power of attorney. Both areas must be addressed clearly. The one additional document to think about is the desire to be an organ donor. This can be addressed on your driver’s license. This can be addressed in other formal documents. The organs in a young person who dies in an accident are ones that are healthy for transplantation. We need to make our wishes in this area formally known ahead of time. We often do not like to think about bad things that might happen. In so doing we neglect to think about the further bad things that could happen if we haven’t prepared correctly in the first place. Dr. Anthony Policastro is medical director at Nanticoke Memorial Hospital.

Pedestrian accident risk is at all-time high Daylight savings time comes to an end this weekend when we turn back our clocks by an hour. Office of Highway Safety officials are concerned because studies have shown a link between a change in the amount of daylight hours and an increase in traffic crashes. They’re particularly worried about the effect losing daylight hours could have on the already alarmingly high number of pedestrian fatalities that have occurred in 2006. Since January 1, 23 pedestrians have been killed in motor vehicle crashes. Nearly half of the fatal crashes occurred between 9 p.m. and midnight and another five occurred either in early morning or early evening hours in the dark or low light conditions. With fewer evening daylight hours, everyone should be aware that more pedestrians and motorists will be traveling in the dark, increasing the risk for a crash and resulting death or injuries. The Office of Highway Safety urges both motorists and pedestrians to remem-
Halloween safety tips Before you send your little ghosts, witches and mummies out the door this Halloween, talk to them about the importance of staying safe while trick or treating. “From choosing a costume to choosing which houses to go to, the watch word for Halloween is caution,” says Mark Manno, state 4-H educator at the University of Delaware. He says that many accidents are caused by unsafe costumes. Check to see that costumes are made of flame-resistant materials and that hems are three- to four-inches off the ground. To make sure
ber and use the following safety tips: Pedestrians: Be Safe – Be Seen. Delaware law requires anyone walking at night to carry a flashlight, lantern or other reflective – or retro-reflective – device, so that drivers can see you. If you’re out walking at dawn, dusk, or at night, wear light clothing in addition to carrying your lighting source. Limit the amount of walking you do during night time hours. Take extra time to look left –right – and left again before crossing a road at night. Cross at designated crosswalks or intersections with traffic control devices as much as possible. Crosswalks are more visible at night then trying to jaywalk across a dark, unlit roadway. It’s much safer to walk on a sidewalk, but when there is no sidewalk next to a roadway, walk facing traffic as far off the edge of that road as possible.

children will be visible after dark, choose brightly colored costumes and/or put reflective tape on the costumes. Manno also recommends using make-up instead of masks or hoods, which can obstruct a child’s vision. Manno offers these tips for when the big night finally arrives: Accompany children on their trick-or-treating rounds. Older children may balk at this, but let them know it’s non-negotiable. Review traffic safety rules before you depart. Go only to houses of people you know. Inspect the treats at home before allowing children to eat them.

AAA offers tips for safe driving in deer season AAA is advising drivers to be on alert as deer-mating season lasts through December. Since deer become more active, especially at dawn and dusk, they are often on roadways in the path of traffic. Nationally, about 1.5-million deer-vehicle crashes occur annually and 155 people die because of these crashes. Most animal-related crashes involve deer. In 2005, in Delaware, there were 418 animalrelated crashes and one fatality and in 2004 there were 509 crashes and one fatality,according to the Delaware State Police. Nationwide, fatal crashes involving animals have increased since the mid-1990s, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. Although fatal crashes involving other animals do occur, more than 75 percent of fatal collisions with animals involve deer. The average deer-vehicle crash causes about $2,500 worth of damage, often to the front-end, leaving the vehicle wrecked or shattering the windshield heighten their awareness particularly near wooded areas along local roadways during these more dangerous times. Catherine L. Rossi, manager of Public and Government Affairs for AAA Mid-Atlantic,offers these tips to avoid hitting a deer: • Be observant. Look for deercrossing signs indicating areas where deer frequently travel. Deer are creatures of habit and may often use the same path again. Remember where you see them. • Be alert. Deer move quickly. A deer standing near a roadside may suddenly run across the road. Slow down and use your horn to scare the deer. Never shine or flash your vehicle’s
Leaf burning prohibited DNREC’s Air Quality Management Section is reminding Delaware residents that burning leaves is prohibited statewide. The leaf burning ban, in effect since February 1995, is important to protect people, animals and plants from harmful chemicals that are produced by open burning. The burning of leaves produces a considerable amount of airborne particulate matter, carbon monoxide, and at least sev-
lights this can cause the deer to fixate on your vehicle. Use highbeams for greater visibility. • Look for groups. If you see one deer crossing the road ahead, it is probable that others are in the area. Deer travel in groups, so slow down since others may be near, but out of view. • Never swerve. Instead, slow down and brake. Swerving can cause you to lose control of your vehicle and strike another vehicle or object along the roadway. • Do not rely on devices. No evidence that hood-mounted deer whistles and other devices promising to scare off deer even work. • Slow down. If a crash with a deer is unavoidable, AAA recommends slowing down and releasing your foot from the brake before impact. This will raise the front end of the car during the crash and increase the likelihood that the animal will go underneath the vehicle instead of through the windshield. • Buckle up and do not speed. A decrease in speed will increase the time to react. • Do not try to move a deer. An injured deer might panic and seriously injure a Good Samaritan. Call police or animal control for assistance.

North Laurel using rewards to encourage good behavior By Mike McClure The Laurel School Board received a report from North Laurel Elementary School on its Positive Behavior Support (PBS) team during the board’s meeting last Wednesday. The Positive Behavior Support team is an international program designed to manage student behavior in a positive and productive way. The school’s plan was developed in 2002. Individual student recognition is provided in the following ways: classroom behavior incentives, citizen of the month, STAAR student recognition, golden paw prints, and top dog cards (piloting program in three classes). Classwide recognition includes the following: paw prints, pawprint parties, golden trash can for clean classrooms, golden collar, and special seating in the cafeteria. North Laurel also holds town hall meetings by grade levels and has character education programs. The school was one of two area schools to start the program, now there are 107. North Laurel was presented with a Star School award (for its work with the program) during the meeting. At the beginning of Wednesday’s board meeting, three Laurel High students asked the board to help fund a lacrosse team at the school. The students presented the board with a petition with over 100 signatures asking for the addition of the spring sport. The students called lacrosse a growing sport in the area and pointed to programs at area schools such as Milford, Sussex
Central, and Sussex Tech. They said lacrosse, which is a contact sport, would be a benefit to the football program. Laurel High principal Dean Ivory said he received a call from one of the students on his first week on the job. Ivory said the school doesn’t have funds available in its budget to start the program but was proud of the students for following through. “They are certainly dedicated and I’m proud of them going through the process,” said Ivory. The students asked the board to provide $15,000 to help fund the program. The board did not vote on or discuss the request during Wednesday’s board meeting. The board held the second reading of its facility report. Superintendent Keith Duda recommended approval of the plan and encouraged the board to start planning for a capital improvement plan to address the district’s aging buildings. In other business, the board approved Kevin Walmsley as the new varsity girls’ basketball coach. At the end of the meeting, assistant superintendent Linda Schenck praised Salisbury University for offering substitute support (student teachers one day a week) to help fill in for Laurel teacher Nate Israel who was critically injured during a recent incident in Salisbury. The school also offered to help the Laurel School District find a certified physical education teacher if Israel is out for a long period of time.

Season plans announced for Gateway The Gateway Park Committee and the City of Seaford will be hosting the 13th Annual Carolling in the Park Celebration and Tree Dedication Ceremony on Monday, Nov. 27, at 7 p.m., in Gateway Park. For those who arrive early, the Seaford Christian Academy bell ensemble will be performing at 6:30 p.m. The Gateway Park Committee has been dedicated to ensuring a festival holiday season for Seaford residents by decorating the trees in Gateway Park for more then a decade. The idea started when two residents, Dave and Cristine Layton, volunteered to light the small trees in the park with mini-lights. It later escalated to largebulb lights and the addition of Carolling in the Park, held on the first Monday after Thanksgiving. This year’s Carolling in the Park will include the dedication ceremony for a new Community Christmas Tree. The new tree is a 24-foot, pre-lit panel tree that was purchased with donations received from the community. The City of Seaford will begin the process of erecting the tree on Nov. 6 and is seeking volunteers to help decorate the tree on Nov. 7, from 14 p.m. The tree will not be lit until Nov. 27. Individuals interested in supporting the holiday decorations in the park or the Carolling in the Park event can make donations to the Gateway Park Committee, through the City of Seaford, at PO Box 1100, Seaford, DE 19973. Any donation over $300 will be recognized with an engraved brick in the park. For individuals who would like to support the tree with a smaller contribution, “silver bell” ornament sponsorships are available for $5, $10 and $15, depending on size. A sponsorship will place a name of your choice on the ornament before it goes onto the tree. Ornament sponsors are encouraged to place their bell on the tree at the dedication ceremony or may elect to have it placed on the tree in advance. Sponsors may keep their bell at the end of the holiday season. Bells are on display at City Hall. For more information contact Amy Walls at 6299173.

What must I do to be saved? Acknowledge your sin and place your trust in Christ. All who place their trust in Christ in this way are adopted as God’s children. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. — Romans 3:23 The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. — Romans 6:23 God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. — Romans 5:8 If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. — Romans 10:9

The suspect vehicle is only described as a smaller black four-door with tinted windows. The vehicle displayed an unknown Delaware registration plate. It should have damage to front and right side. There is no description of the driver. Anyone having information pertaining to this crash is asked to call Troop 4 at (302)-856-5850, ext. 325.
Police look for shooting suspect On Friday, Oct. 20, at approximately 1:40 a.m. members of the Laurel Police Department responded to the 300 block of Carvel Gardens in referrence to an assault.

During the course of the struggle the suspect fired one shot missing the male victim. The male victim was able to knock the gun from the suspect’s hand prior to him fleeing the scene. The victims have described the suspect as a black male with dreads approx. 5’8” and 160 lbs. The suspect was last seen wearing a black shirt and blue jean shorts. The suspect may possibly be from Florida and goes by the name “Dexter.” Anyone with information is asked to contact the Laurel Police Department at 875-2244.
DUI enforcement Halloween weekend According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than half of all traffic fatalities (53 percent) on Halloween weekend, 41 percent on Halloween night alone, are alcohol-related, making it one of the most dangerous holidays of the year. That’s why the Delaware Office of Highway Safety is coordinating an impaired driving enforcement blitz for this coming weekend. “Halloween is no longer just a carefree time for children to dress up and trick-ortreat. Halloween weekend has also turned into a big party weekend for adults,” said OHS DUI Program Coordinator Lisa Moore. “That’s why we’ll have law enforcement blanketing the state. We hope for many it will serve as a deterrent and encourage them to designate a sober driver. But for people who choose to drink alcohol and drive afterwards, our goal is to
save lives by getting those impaired drivers off the roads.” A total of eight sobriety checkpoints are scheduled for this weekend. The Office of Highway Safety reminds you to use the following tips when planning your adult Halloween activities this weekend: • Be responsible and never drive impaired. • If you plan to drink, choose your sober driver before going out. • Once impaired, use mass transit, call a cab or ask a sober friend to get you home. • If all else fails, just stay where you are and sleep it off. • Always buckle up - it’s still your best defense against an impaired driver. • If you are hosting a Halloween party, make sure all of your guests leave with a sober driver.

Another legend from the town of Laurel passes away I am sure that by now you heard about the passing of EdAT URPHY ward R. “Ned” Davis of Laurel.

was always reading. But he was just too old for the likes of me, Tommy Riggin and the other younger kids on 8th Street to get to know very well. Another Laurel “legend” leaves us. To Clay, Edward and the family — I’m thinking about you. I see where the town of Laurel, partnering with the Laurel Lions Club and the Laurel Community Foundation, are looking at building a skateboard park in Laurel. Says Mayor John Shwed, “If we build a park, we want to build one that excites our community’s skateboarders.” Well, I sure hope Fred Melvin stays off a skateboard. Can you imagine the damage to the sidewalk if he hit his head? No, he has no helmet — can’t find one to fit that head! The town hopes to hold a meeting on Nov. 8, 7 p.m., at the library for those who are interested in the park. I walked into Home Team Realty the other day and was, as always, greeted by Kara Usilton. On her computer screen, I could see the clear image of a young baseball player, probably a pitcher. “That your son?” I asked. She said that he was, and I added, “I see he’s a southpaw.” She laughed. She then told me that the first person who said that to her, she answered, “No he’s not a southpaw, he’s a Seaford Blue Jay.” (For those non- baseball fans, a southpaw is a left-handed pitcher.) Thanks for the humor of the week, Kara. I can see I’ve got to get you in the baseball mode. “Say, Phillies.”
I hear that a mountain bike was stolen from someone who had ridden it to the Odd Fellows’ haunted house last Friday evening. This is the only means of transportation for this individual and he needs it dearly. Return it to the location where you picked it up and no charges will be filed. There is a small reward being offered for the return of the bike. If you see a red mountain bike lying around, please contact the police. How about that Henry Bounds of Laurel? Henry and his wife Betty are the happy winners of a new car that is to be delivered in about a month. Henry won it in a sweepstakes contest that he entered. In 1990, after Henry had major heart problems, he was looking for something to keep him busy and sweepstaking was it. Friend Jerry Bauguess from Seaford got into the hobby with Bounds in 1999 and he won a car in 2004. I know it sounds easy, sitting down to the computer, entering these things, filling out forms, mailing them in and so forth, but it’s not. It takes a lot of patience, something the Boundses have gained from their involvement in church. Many of us have known Henry, some all our lives. I am one who has experienced his laughter so I just want to tell you that Henry was full of joy long before the sweepstakes experience came about. See you soon, when I have more time. Got to go. I am a grandfather again.

J. Bunting III, Milford, Del., claimed

his second straight championship title in a row. Bunting never won a race until Sept 23, but the consistency pays off in the long run. There was a close battle with second place holder Beau Wilkins with only 54 points difference in the end. The battle was much closer the last two races of the season with mere single digits at the beginning of the night. The remaining top five were Norman Short, Jr., Jamie Mills and Ricky Johnson. Donald Lingo, Jr., Millsboro, Del., earned his first title in this the Super Late Model Champion. Lingo said he was glad it was over, that is was stressful each week racing for points and anything can go wrong. “Now I can have some fun,” he said.
Lingo racked up five wins during the year. Gary Simpson was a rookie in late model action as he use to race big block modifieds the year before. Simpson did a heck of a good job for his first year to finish second in track points. Simpson also was presented an award sponsored by AutoWorld of the Redbud69racing.com Rookie of the Year in Late Models at Delmar. The remaining top five champs were David Hill, Rob Massey (with his best finish ever), and the great Kenny Pettyjohn in fifth.

Indians turn turnovers into touchdowns in win over Dogs By Mike McClure The Indian River Indians bounced back from a narrow loss to Delmar, their first of the season, to spoil Laurel’s bid for a homecoming win last Friday in Laurel. Four of the Indians’ five touchdowns came after a Laurel turnover in the 35-14 victory. The Laurel defense forced Indian River to punt on the first possession of the game.

✳ OCT. 26 - NOV. 1, 2006
Delmar Sports Scene By Tommy Young It was homecoming for the Delmar Alumni last Saturday, and everything really went well: good weather, a parade, a good turnout, and the Delmar High School football team ended the day by keeping their undefeated season in tack by running roughshod over the Cambridge-South Dorchester High team 54-7. Coach Hearn began running in his reserves in the middle of the second quarter. The alumni did not get to see much of a game as the Wildcats scored the first three time they got their hands on the ball and led 20-0 at the end of the first quarter. Tevin Jackson scored twice and Marquis Leatherbury ran the third one in from 10 yards out. The rout continued in the second quarter as Leatherbury, Matt Campbell, and Fernandez Batson joined in the scoring spree with a touchdown apiece. Alan Preston engineered all of these scoring drives with ease, and I believe he only had to go to the pass one time and completed it. Meanwhile, the defense was doing its usual great job stopping the Cambridge running game cold as they only allowed one score all day, and that was a “Hail Mary” pass, one of the few they completed all day as four were intercepted. This certainly brought a smile to Mark Quillin’s face as this has been the only weak spot in his defensive unit all year. Right after Cambridge scored its only touchdown of the game, Delmar drove down the field, and Matt Campbell took it in from 18 yards out to make the score 41-7 at the half-time. Then, as usual when the Wildcats have a sizable lead at half-time, the first team comes out for one series, and then all of the reserves get to play, and that’s what happened Saturday afternoon. Justin Thomas, who is the leader of Delmar’s defensive unit, came in on the offense and scored on a 30-yard gallop, and Batson stayed in with the reserves and scored the final touchdown for Delmar. From this point on, the reserves took over and not only held the Vikings scoreless, but
also moved the ball on offense. The Wildcats play Lake Forest up there this week at 7:30 p.m. I do not know what has happened to the Cambridge football program. They were once one of the better teams in the Bayside Conference, and although it is a much weaker conference than the Henlopen, I think everyone expected a better team than the one that showed up Saturday. To follow up on the Bayside Conference football, there was an article in a local paper regarding the Wicomico High football team, which is undefeated, and they wonder why they do not get more respect. That’s easy to answer, as they have not played a team with a winning record. All they have to do is play a few teams out of the Henlopen Conference who they have avoided for a long time. Cambridge is the only Bayside team to schedule Delmar in three years. The last time a Bayside team played Delmar was James M. Bennett whom they shutout 34-0, and Bennett was the best team in Salisbury at that time. After being rained out Tuesday, the Delmar field hockey team shut out Smyrna on Thursday as Ali Bloodsworth scored on a pass from Katie McMahon and Mallory Elliott scored the other goal. This win gives the Delmar girls an 11-1 record, and they are now ranked fifth in the state. ASSISTS AND ERRORS- Sign ups for the Delmar Youth Basketball League will begin this Saturday at Delmar High School. For further information, contact Johnny Layton who is in charge of this program. The Eastern Shore Baseball Hall of Fame will be holding its annual dinner and induction of new members this year at the Delmar VFW on Saturday, Nov. 4, at 5 p.m. This event is open to the public, and tickets for this affair may be purchased from any member of the Hall’s board of directors.

Delmar soccer scores five second half goals to top Laurel, 7-1 By Mike McClure The Delmar varsity soccer team netted a pair of first half goals for a 2-0 lead at the half in last Thursday’s home game against Laurel. The Bulldogs opened the scoring in the second half to make it a one goal game, but the Wildcats answered with five more goals for the 7-1 win. Corey Basch and Cody Webster each scored a goal to give Delmar a 2-0 lead at halftime. Laurel goalie Jorge Lopez made five saves while Delmar goalie Jared Rittenhouse made two stops in the first half. Laurel’s Kyle Brown followed his own penalty kick to make the score 2-1. Denny Murray scored on a feed from Webster and Webster scored a goal to extend the Wildcats’ lead to 4-1. Chris Phillips took a pass from Murray, Phillips found Basch, and Rittenhouse scored Delmar’s final goal of the game to make it 7-1. Delmar (6-5 in the Henlopen Conference, 6-7 overall) hosts Salisbury School and Seaford this Monday and Tuesday before visiting Sussex Central on Nov. 1 to end the regular season. Laurel was scheduled to visit Indian River this Tuesday before hosting Smyrna on Oct. 30.
Laurel Midget team clinches sixth Henlopen title, extends winning streak to 56 The Laurel Pop Warner Midget Bulldogs extended their winning streak to 56 games and also won their sixth Henlopen Championship in six years with their 40-6 win over the Smyrna Eagles last Saturday. Billy Yossick had a 15-yard touchdown run and Daniel Ash kicked the extra point to start the first quarter scoring for Laurel. Micheal Taylor added a 48-yard punt return for a touchdown and Joe McGinnis completed a 25-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Givens. McGinnis scored from six yards out in the second quarter as Laurel took a 27-0 lead into the half. In the third quarter, Brandon Collins had a six-yard touchdown run, Frank Braham, Jr. added a 29-yard touchdown run, and Zach Eure ran in the extra point to pace the Bulldogs. Smyrna added a touchdown run in the final quarter, but Laurel held on for the 40-6 win. Yossick had three carries for 54 yards, Nick Munoz ran the ball four times for 77 yards, Collins had four rushes for 54 yards, Braham, Jr. carried the ball eight times for 118 yards, and Tyler Robertson added six rushes for 51 yards.

Former Ravens’ cheerleader teaches, coaches at Woodbridge By Mike McClure Anna Karbley, a former Baltimore Ravens cheerleader, has found a new home in the Woodbridge community. Karbley, who was a Raven cheerleader during the 2002 season, moved to the area from Baltimore and is now teaching in the Woodbridge School District in addition to serving as the Woodbridge High fall cheerleading coach. “I love it. It’s a lot different. Woodbridge is very much like a home, everybody knows you,” said Karbley. “Everyone’s been very welcoming.” Of course, its not often that a former professional cheerleader moves to the area, so its no wonder that’s what Karbley’s cheerleaders and other community members asked her about when she first moved here. “They wanted to know what it’s like to try out,” Karbley said. “It’s like a job. They want career minded women.” Karbley was a Towson University cheerleader when she was invited to try out for the team. Tryouts are held one year in advance and are very competitve. According to Anna, there were 470 cheerleaders at her tryouts. Each day cuts were made with job interviews with the team’s head coach, assistant coach and personal trainer and trial practices being held before final cuts were made. “It was wonderful. You get to do a lot with the community,” said Karbley. “You’re in a wonderful position to help

others.” Among the activites she had a chance to participate in as a Raven cheerleader were: the little Ravens program, raising money for soup kitchens in Baltimore, and a Christmas collection for children at a shelter. While there were many perks that came with the job, Karbley says there were drawbacks. According to Anna, the team was very controlling, telling cheerleaders how tan to be, what color hair they should have, what to wear, and what to say. “I was relieved to be out of that lifestyle. I loved it but its very time consuming,” Karbley said. “It really becomes a way of life.” Karbley’s tenure as a Raven cheer-

leader came to a close when she broke her ankle. “When you break your ankle in a big sport like that you easily get replaced,” said Karbley. To add insult injury, Karbley’s parents’ house on the water was washed out by a hurricane, causing them to move. She moved to the area with fiance Jeremy Tomko, who she met at a NASCAR race. Tomko, who is from the Johnstown, Pa., area, moved here for work. Karbley teaches kindergartern at Woodbridge Elementary School in Greenwood
in addition to coaching the Woodbridge High cheerleading team. “I absolutely love it. I love that age (kindergarten),” Karbley said. “The girls (cheerleaders) are great, they have so much heart.” Karbley is used to coaching younger cheerleaders in the Little Raven program, but she has enjoyed coaching at the high school level. “I want the girls to know I’m really proud of them,” she added. “They’ve done really well.”

Entertainment First State Ballet in Sussex performance First State Ballet Theatre and SPARX, Delmarva’s acclaimed flute and harp duo, will present an all new program on Saturday, Nov. 11, 7 p.m. in the theatre of the Arts & Science Center at Delaware Technical & Community College in Georgetown. This classical and contemporary ballet and chamber music repertoire features musicians and dancers “conversing” onstage through their respective art forms. SPARX will perform compositions by Bizet, Lauber, Piazzolla, and Bondon;
dance performances will include one choreographed by Matthew Neenan of Pennsylvania Ballet and two new contemporary pieces by Viktor Plotnikov, who was honored as best choreographer at the Helsinki International Ballet Competition and the Youth America Grand Prix. General admission tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for students and senior citizens and may be purchased by calling Delaware Technical & Community College in Georgetown at 858-5475. First State Ballet Theatre, headquar-
tered in the Grand Opera House in Wilmington, was co-founded in 2000 by Pasha and Kristina Kambalov. First State Ballet Theatre’s mission is to present professional quality ballet performances to audiences throughout Delaware and beyond, to provide performing opportunities to aspiring dancers, and to educate the Delaware dance audience of the future. As two-time winners of the National Flute Association’s Chamber Music Competition, SPARX (Joan Sparks, flute and
Anne Sullivan, harp) has been honored with many regional and national awards, including the American Composers Forum Performance Incentive Grant. The prestigious Chamber Music America Ensemble Residency Grant aided the duo in their ground-breaking development of a combined residency between the Tatnall School in Wilmington, and a regional retirement community corporation. The grant allowed SPARX to develop and pursue their cherished goal of creating “life-long listeners.”
Western Sussex Cultural Arts Committee supports local events The Western Sussex Cultural Arts Committee is currently working with HarleyDavidson of Seaford in hosting “Harley Harvest” on Saturday, Nov. 4, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Harley-Davidson of Seaford. “Harley Harvest” will be featuring children’s activities, crafts, music, and artist’s demonstrations. W.S.C.A.C. is also involved in working with downtown merchants in planning “Girl’s Night Out” on Thursday, Nov.16.
The committee is sponsoring Pink Grass, an all women’s Blue Grass band, to play that evening at the Browsery in downtown Seaford. This event is made possible, in part, by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, and the Delaware Division of the Arts, a state agency committed to promoting and supporting all the arts in Delaware. The Western Sussex Cultural Arts Committee (W.S.C.A.C.), formerly known as
the Seaford Heritage Committee, is dedicated to providing and supporting performing and cultural arts in the greater Seaford area. The committee is comprised of representatives from the City of Seaford, Harley-Davidson of Seaford, the Seaford District Library, the Seaford City Council, the Trinity Foundation, and members of the Seaford communiity. To date, the committee has sponsored and co-sponsored a number of events in
the Seaford community such as a weekend of cultural events last October, Coffee Houses at the Western Sussex Boy’s and Girl’s Club in Seaford, International Night at the Seaford District Library, and, most recently, a Heritage Stage located at the Seaford Museum during Seaford’s Riverfest 2006. Some of the performers at the Heritage Stage were local favorites the Nanticoke Indian Dancers and the Arabian Lights Dance Company.

work crews. “One family we would like to thank is James and Rose Wheaton. This couple has essentially adopted the crews working on this bridge. Every day, they brought refreshments, and even sweet potato pie that is all the talk among George & Lynch crews and DelDOT,” Wicks said. “They took pictures of the progress and
presented an album to construction crew members. In short, they have shown the type of gratitude that we all hope for when we work on a transportation project.” Wicks said the Wheatons are also “extremely, extraordinarily, patient.” “When the previous bridge was built in 1935, construction crews left a pile of concrete rubble on the Wheaton’s land,”

A celebration of the bridge and road reopenings was held west of Seaford on Monday. Area roads and bridges suffered severe damage as a result of the June 25, 2006 torrential rains that dropped more than 14 inches of rain on the area that day. Delaware Department of Transportation (DelDOT) secretary Carolann Wicks officially opened the Rt. 20 bridge over Horse Pen Branch, Monday, Oct. 23. This event marked the completion of all the emergency bridge and road work done in the Seaford area after the historic flooding this past June. Moments after the final inspection was complete, Wicks moved the cone and traffic began to flow once more over the bridge. “Today we are not just celebrating the opening of this bridge, here on Rt. 20 over the Horse Pen Branch. We are celebrating every bridge and road we repaired and replaced following the torrential downpours of June 25. “DelDOT maintenance crews began working to repair the damaged roads and bridges immediately. In the driving rain, they erected barricades, filled in sinkholes and had many roads ready for traffic within a day or two. While crews were fixing the relatively small problems, engineers were wrestling with problems like bridges that were simply gone.” Wicks, a former bridge designer, said building two bridges in two months is almost unheard of. “As you might have guessed, we do not have a warehouse in Gumboro full of spare bridge parts. Nor is there a catalog where we can order bridges and have them delivered by overnight express shipping. “DelDOT engineers, surveyors, utili-
ties, and real estate staff all had to scramble to design the new bridges. For example, our engineers and surveyors were on the scene, taking measurements and writing specifications when the water was still high. “Not even sure how deep the holes were, they designed bridges that surpass the ones they replaced. The speed and quality of work was unprecedented. “As secretary and a 23-year employee of the department, I am humbled daily by the work of all the great DelDOT employees.” Wicks said DelDOT employees navigated through a process that usually takes two years and did it in two weeks. “After the bridge design staff came up with bridge plans, we did something a little different to speed up the process. We contracted out the concrete sections separately from the general contractors,” she said. “By contracting separately, we could begin work on the building blocks of the bridges while taking bids for the construction.” One month after the storm, crews began construction at the two destroyed bridges, she noted. “While no bridge can survive every storm, I’m confident these two bridges are stronger than the ones they replaced,” Wicks said. “The two new bridges both have rip-rap which is essentially large stones wrapped in wire mesh that will stop the soil erosion in case of a storm. In addition, each bridge has a larger opening for water to pass through.” Wicks also thanked the fine people of Seaford and western Sussex County for their patience. “To the people of western Sussex County, we say thank you. Thank you for driving with caution near the workers, thank you for understanding that good work takes time, and thank you most of all for your patience,” Wicks said. “Two months to build a bridge is almost unheard of in the bridge business, but for someone who drives this road every day to get home to his or her family, two months may seem like a very long time.” Wicks gave special praise to an area family for their help in encouraging the

MORNING STAR ✳ OCT. 26 - NOV. 1, 2006 Wicks explained. “Well, for some reason, and this was before my watch, the concrete was never removed. For 70 years, the concrete remained on their property, right over there in the trees. “When we came to build the new bridge, the Wheatons politely reminded us that perhaps now would be a good time to clean up the mess. “After reviewing the original documents from the project, we found that concrete was to be removed. In keeping with our word, I am proud to say that the concrete was removed. It might take a few years, but DelDOT lives up to its promises.”
Rose and James Wheaton were presented a piece of concrete from the original bridge by the crew of George & Lynch. A DelDOT, gave them the framed contract from 1935 that states DelDOT will remove the debris. (See page one photo.) “We would also like to name the two of you honorary DelDOT bridge inspectors, complete with a certificate naming you as such, and of course, a couple of DelDOT hardhats,” Wicks said. “Again, I say thank you to the employees of DelDOT. You all did an amazing job. On their behalf I want to thank once again, the people of Sussex County,” she concluded.

Time to turn your clocks back, but why? Over three-quarters of a billion clocks and timing devices in the U.S., not counting watches, will be set back on Sunday, Oct. 29, for the end of Daylight Saving Time. Ralph L. Scott, III of Scott’s Furniture, of Bridgeville, offers the following timely tips and tidbits on Daylight Saving Time. When did Daylight Saving Time begin? The originator of daylight Saving Time was Benjamin Franklin, who was appalled by the wanton use of candle wax by the Parisians. Daylight Saving Time has been widely used since World War I, when U.S. law, to conserve fuel for the war effort, adopted the system. During World War II, Daylight Saving Time was also mandatory but it did not become law in peacetime until 1966. Who is in charge of Daylight Saving Time? The U.S. Department of
Transportation, which also has jurisdiction over time zones. Standard time in time zones was first instituted in 1883 by the railroads. Before then, most cities and towns used some form of local solar time. What are the advantages of Daylight Saving Time? With the extra hour of afternoon daylight, we trim the entire country’s electricity usage by about 1% each day. There is also a reduction in traffic injuries and crime.
Why does Daylight Saving Time begin the first Sunday of April? Mindful that barbecuing is best begun in daylight, the Barbecue Industry Association spearheaded legislation passed in 1986 that moved Daylight Saving Time up from the last weekend of April. Convenience store owners, baseball and softball groups as well as people who suffer from night blindness were also part of the coalition.
schedules and/or sleeping patterns? The time change causes sleep deprivation that will make workers more prone to accidents, this according to a Harvard Medical School professor who has studied the subject. Also, a recent Canadian study cited an 8% jump in the number of traffic accidents in the spring, when drivers had lost an hour’s sleep and a 9% decrease in the number of accidents in the fall, when people were better rested.
Is anybody against Daylight Saving Time? Most farmers. In the words of one old New Hampshire farmer, “Daylight Saving Time makes liars out of clocks and fools out of people.” The early sunset allows them to get to town to do their chores. Dairy and livestock farmers also feel the time change upsets the animals feeding schedules.
Why will manual clock setting soon be a thing of the past? Timepieces can now be equipped with a powerful radio signal transmitted from the National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST) in Fort Collins, Colorado, which sets the

time automatically. The clocks are linked to the institute’s cesium atomic clock, the most accurate clock in the world. Howard Miller has the first collection of these clocks ever-available called Accuwave DS. Why does it end the last Sunday in October? In the winter months, the afternoon advantage of more light is offset by the need for lighting because of late sunrise. Mindful of Halloween trick or treating, the National Confectioner’s Association was among those that lobbied unsuccessfully in 1986 to have it extended into November. The confectioners made a valiant attempt, however, and even put little pumpkins with candy on the chairs of the congressional committee members.

Leftover Halloween candy ingredient for great snacks Halloween. Time once again for the annual Goblin Guessing Game. For some of my friends, it’s as plain as the wart on a witch’s nose that they’ll be inundated with gaggles of masked visitors and, therefore, will need quite a bit of treats. I, on the other hand, have been left year after year, holding the bag with scads of unclaimed candy. Because this is increasingly the case, I buy the candy bars I like since I just might have to finish them off. So the few ghosts and goblins that knock on my door get M &M’s, Hershey Bars and Heath Bars. Funny how I always seem to over-estimate just how many I’ll need. If you find yourself with some leftovers, you may want to try one of these creations: the first is from the Prego Italian Restaurant in Houston, Texas, and uses Hershey Bars in a speedy microwave confection. The second, from Bon Appetit, takes Heath Bars to new heights. And the third, a variation on an old Gourmet recipe, combines M&M’s with salty and savory companions in a delicious trail mix. Microwave S’mores 1 and 1/2 cups whipping cream 5 ounces white chocolate (or white chocolate chips) 1 ounce cold milk 12 graham crackers 16 marshmallows (regular size, not miniature) 4 Hershey’s chocolate bars (1.55 ounce size) Whip the cream. Melt the white chocolate in top of a double boiler or in microwave. Stir the milk into the melted white chocolate to combine and allow to cool; fold into whipped cream. Reserve. Break one graham cracker in half. Place three squares of Hershey’s chocolate bar on each half and cook in microwave for 45 seconds, or until the chocolate begins to melt. Remove from microwave and place a marshmallow on top of the chocolate on each graham cracker half. Return to microwave for 15 seconds or until the marshmallow begins to inflate. Remove from microwave and top each with another half graham cracker. Press down to set. Top with a dollop of white chocolate mousse and repeat for more s’mores.

Letters Theft ruins a father-son hunting trip in Canada My two sons and I were the victims mentioned in the following article that appeared in The Ottawa Citizen, a Saskatoon newspaper, published Tuesday, Oct. 10: Gun thefts ruin hunting holiday By Janet French
“A long-anticipated family hunting holiday turned sour for three American men on Sunday, when an estimated $9,000 U.S. worth of their gear was stolen within 30 minutes of stepping off a plane. “Chad Manlove, a Ducks Unlimited biologist from Madison, Miss., planned the hunting holiday for months with his brother, Lance, and father, Larry, who are both from Seaford, Del. At 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, Chad Manlove said the men left their gear in their rental truck for less than 10 minutes while buying supplies at the WalMart at Confederation Park Mall. “‘I only get to see them about twice a year,’ Chad said of his brother and father. This was going to be our annual get-together. “‘I hadn’t hunted with either of them in about three or four years, so we were really looking forward to this.’ When they returned, the truck window was smashed and four guns, their hunting clothes, Larry’s U.S. passport, electronic gadgets and credit cards were all gone. “Manlove, in a telephone interview from his home in Mississippi Monday, said the incident was ‘very unfortunate.’ ‘You arrive in a new country, and it hadn’t been 15 minutes we’d been outside of the airport and this happened,’ he said. ‘We’re standing there with nothing, pretty much dumbfounded.’ This trip was also Larry and Lance Manlove’s first time in Canada, Chad Manlove said. “‘It left a very poor impression with my father,’ he said. ‘He’s not real excited about ever trying to return back to Canada. I’m not completely going to be run out of Canada. I want to try it again.’ “Now, Manlove is asking for the public’s help in recovering his family’s belongings. The men had four shotguns in hard plastic cases that were stolen. Also missing are two large green duffel bags containing clothes, hip-waders, hats and other hunting gear. “Gone are two digital cameras, two pairs of binoculars, a video camera, Chad’s brand new GPS unit and Lance’s electronic organizer and cell phone. “‘A lot of that stuff you can replace, but a lot of it had sentimental and family value,’ Manlove said. ‘The gun my father had, my brother and I bought it for his 50th birthday 10 years ago. Things like that are going to be hard to replace if we don’t get those back.’ Manlove said he is willing to offer a small reward to anyone who can provide information that leads to the return of his family’s belongings. “Along with the stolen gear, the men are also out $2,000 U.S. for plane tickets for the disastrous trip. They also spent $400 for hunting licenses that were immediately pilfered from the truck. “‘We had nothing left, so we had to leave,’ Manlove said. The men spent the night in a Saskatoon hotel, then flew back to the U.S. early Monday morning. “Manlove said he’s spent the time he
was supposed to be duck hunting cancelling credit cards and having copies of his car keys made instead. “‘I never would have expected this to happen because I’ve always heard good things about hunting in Canada, and the people are so nice,’ he said. “‘I felt bad,’ he added. ‘I sort of arranged this whole deal for my father and my brother to get on a good duck hunt and enjoy hanging out in Canada. Neither one of them had ever been. You don’t ever hear about this kind of thing.’ “Saskatoon police are asking anyone with information about the theft to call them at 975-8300, or Crime Stoppers at 931-8477.” We were so looking forward to this hunting trip together. This was the first hunting trip together for a long time. I was really mad because these individuals had robbed us not only of our personal items, but of our time together. When Chad arrived home in Mississippi, he immediately contacted different media groups in Canada and gave them an account of what happened. In my luggage were a Gideon Bible and 20 tracts entitled, “Please meet my best friend.” My prayer was that one of them would see my Bible and be convicted of what they had done to us. God works in mysterious ways. Early Wednesday morning (1:30 a.m.), the police sergeant from Saskatoon called me and said a good Samaritan had walked into the station with four shotguns in cases and two large duffle bags. They were our items. Still missing are cell phones, passports, cameras, my clothes/gear and irreplaceable hunting items my father had given the boys over the years. This event is a God thing. I am still praying that God will work on their conscience and the other items will be returned. We have had the Canadian waterfowl department contact us and several farmers in the region. They all were very apologetic and offered to assist us next year with guided hunting trips. This was a nightmare, but I believe God is turning it into a soul-saving, soul-searching event. Larry Manlove Seaford
Killings of animals fosters commitment to save them In a recent issue of the Star, Mrs. Lynn Parks wrote a very moving tribute to her pet dog “Maisey.” This brought back memories of past pets that have gone. Just as in the case of other family members, they were dearly loved and will not be forgotten. They gave all and really expected very little in return. Years ago, there was a young boy out west who also had a fascination with animals. He had pets he loved. One day, he saw an owl sleeping on a low branch of a tree. He wanted this bird as a pet. He grabbed the feet of this bird assuming it would go quietly and he could just take it home. The frightened bird instinctively thrashed violently in its attempt at escaping captivity. The boy didn’t know what to do. He swung the bird against the tree fearing if he let go it would attack him. This story reminds me of “The getting hold of a tiger by the tail” story. In the
end, the bird died. The boy vowed to do something positive for all animals so everyone would love and respect them. Did he succeed? You be the judge: his name was Walt Disney. I have a similar story with comparative results. Growing up as a youth it was a right-of-passage to be what our forefathers were, hunters. You brought home the food so your family could survive. They didn’t have large food marts then, but we still had to prove our manhood. I was sitting in the woods in an upstate New York forest. My instructions were to wait till a deer came close and “bag-it!” I was cold, bored and frustrated: this being a man thing was no fun. Nearby on a tree limb, out popped a gray squirrel. I’ll bring back something, I told myself. I put bird shot in my gun and fired. I must assume my shot spread out and only one or two pellets hit the little bugger, who was chomping on a nut of some kind. He dropped the nut, looked in my direction as if to say: “Hey man, what the heck have I done to offend you?” His little arms seemed to clutch his chest and he slowly tumbled from the tree branch and I never saw him again. How strange, I sure didn’t feel like much of a man, or even a human for that matter. Today’s “hunters” sit a mile away with expensive rifles and powerful scopes and shoot a deer grazing in a field far away. Hopefully, they eat what they take down. All too often the head is taken as a trophy and the body is left. Some say that if the herds are not thinned out, they will starve. Many deer are struck by vehicles. The deer, however, were here before we put the roads in. What I consider a “Real Man and Hunter” today is: one who goes deep into the forest armed only with a knife and takes out a grizzly. Is that going to happen? No! But in any case, you will not see me out hunting again. And only one who truly loves all animals, especially our pets, can experience the feeling of loss that Mrs. Parks spoke about in her “Eulogy.” I might add, if you do not feel that strongly about animals, and that’s OK, then don’t have one in your house. Later in life, I became a police officer with the hopes of saving all living things that were not capable of protecting themselves. After retirement, I became the director of the law-enforcement division of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals in New York City. If you ever watch “Animal Precinct,” I designed those ASPCA patches and shields (badges) and trained most of those officers. Charging people for “Cruelty to Animals” was a satisfying experience to those so deserving. Saving animals (as well as people, by the way) has been a very rewarding experience. There was a lot of satisfaction in finding new homes for pets where they would be treated in a manner fitting their status in our world. When I think of that little gray squirrel in that tree, I only hope, just like Mr. Walt Disney, that there is more love for animals and more are alive because of our past negative experiences. I hope I have paid my debt. More importantly, the understanding that “the right of passage and growing to maturity” is not about taking, but giving. As Mrs. Parks is well aware, all of nature and life itself is a gift from God that we have no right in destroying,
but instead showing our love and appreciation. Let’s all work together with that thought in mind. Albert W. Weir Seaford
‘Offensive’ haunted house should not be supported As I ride past the cemetery on the way to my home outside of Laurel every day throughout the year, I am confronted with an image that greatly offends me. There on my left, overlooking the cemetery, is a face of evil. Year round, this evil looking skull overlooks the cemetery and the town of Laurel, and no one complains or does anything about it. Then, around the end of September, a lot of action takes place as the good men and women of Laurel band together and begin working on this “haunted house.” Oh, I know, the money raised by this “haunted house” goes to a good cause. Therefore, the end must justify the means, right? What truly grieves my spirit (even more than the image of evil that has been joyfully welcomed to overlook our town) are the Christian men and women who rush to work on the “haunted house” each Sunday after church, and the Christian businesses that donate materials to the “haunted house.” Church, please tell me, how can you go from worshiping Jesus Christ to work on a house designed to frighten and haunt people? So what if the money goes to a “good cause”? Does that make this good? As you read the Scriptures, you know that God is a jealous God, and that he will tolerate no evil. His word clearly states that God does not give us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind, so if God does not give us a spirit of fear, then where does that spirit come from? Church, do you believe that the Bible is God’s word? If you do believe this, then surely you know that Satan comes disguised as an angel of light. It is he who makes right seem wrong, and wrong seem right, and it is his desire to deceive even the elect. He prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking to steal, kill and destroy you. I know, many of you think that I’m over-reacting, but know this — just as God is real, so is the enemy of your soul, and the Lord has made his will known to you. Each person who reads this letter will one day face God Almighty, and he will ask you why you, who calls yourself a child of God, would participate in something that he hates. He will ask you why you led so many to the “haunted house” instead of leading them to him. Church, know this, God is not to be mocked or ignored. He is not to be toyed with. He doesn’t just want a little of your affection — he commands us to love him with all of our heart, soul, mind and strength. He wants all or nothing. Finally, in closing, church, do you wonder why there is such a problem with drugs in our community? Do you wonder why our youth are so rebellious against authority? Do you question whether God hears our cries for this community, this state, our country? How can you expect the king of kings to come and live in a place where there is clearly another leader who is more revered? That leader has his Continued on page 55

Delaware voters can trust state’s voting machines By Frank Calio State Elections Commissioner
With recent articles being published by the news media, and numerous e-mails circulating around the country regarding the security of our nation’s voting machines, I feel obligated as Delaware’s Commissioner of Elections to explain the difference between what the voters are reading and the security of our voting machines in Delaware. The negative articles regarding some of the companies who have sold the new voting machines have made voters anxious and nervous over whether the new, uniform electronic voting machines are safe, legitimate and can be trusted to count their precious votes. Voting systems exist in a larger context characterized by people, processes and technology. No device or system can assure performance if elections officials and polling staff are poorly trained, voting rules are not clear and related activities such as voter registration and record keep-
ing are poorly conceived or executed. Delaware is one of a handful of states with a statewide registration system. It is the only state with a uniform voting system. While electronic voting systems vary, they prevent voters from voting more than once and provide mechanisms to allow voters to correct unintentional under voting. Electronic systems feature other physical and logical security at least as good as and generally better than older voting equipment. The voting systems in question are tied into phone lines and modems which could allow administrative over-ride passwords that cannot be changed by local officials but can be used by hackers or those who have seen the computer discs used in the machines. Delaware’s voting machines are not connected to the Internet, barring the possibility of network hacking. System access is protected by passwords, and the machines create audit logs that document all events, including malfunctions or tamper-
ing attempts. Some people are riding a bandwagon wanting receipts of their votes so they know they have been cast, and some states are obliging that trend. That opens the door for tampering with voting machines to switch and lose votes as well as “fix” the paper receipts. This department does not advocate this. Delaware has a dual system that records the vote and assures the machines have not been tampered with. The three county election directors certify and seal the machines before they are sent to the polling places. The inspectors at the polls and their poll workers open the seals and check that the numbers in the back of the machines reflect what was on the tape when the machines were certified by the counties. A paper tape in a voting machine records your vote, as does a cartridge. When a voting machine is opened after the polls close, the numbers on the tape correspond with the number of polling cards
(voters) who voted that day. The cartridges are then taken to one of the eight zones in the state, and then loaded into a cartridge reader. Data is transmitted to my office where my staff submits that data to the state’s main frame computer. Then results are submitted to the media and our Web site. The Thursday after the Tuesday election, the paper tapes and cartridges are certified by an independent Board of Canvass overseen by a Superior Court Judge in each county. Delaware has used our current voting machines in state-wide elections since 1995; they were recertified (one of six states) by the Federal Election Commission after the 2000 election when the Help America Vote Act was passed mandating the 50 states update their voting machines. Our election system in Delaware has been touted as one of the best in the country. The short answer when you ask whether your vote is safe in Delaware is, “yes.”

On Oct. 2, the entire warehouse team went out on the 52-foot Barbara Anne out of Somer’s Cove Marina in Crisfield. After a scenic ride around Smith Island the group reached the fishing grounds. “In a matter of two hours we had already pulled in around 60 rockfish over 20 inches,” said Jimmy King, 10-year employee of FurnitureLand. Merv Lemon, sixth year ambassador, added, “If anyone just went fishing today for the first time they are ruined for life because it is unlikely to ever be this good again.” After the fish-off the group enjoyed a catered meal featuring Trader’s Fried Chicken. Co-owner Larry Barnes and distribution center manager Justin Barnes closed with an extension of their appreciation for what they refer to as “the best warehouse team on Earth.”

You are never too old to have a fun Halloween Halloween is once again upon us. Parents are diligently trying to come up with an idea for a Halloween costume for their offspring, and kids of all ages are looking forward to bags of delicious treats. Many of us remember when Laurel had a large Halloween parade. Kids would don their costumes, the once active downtown area along Market Street would be roped off so that traffic was not allowed to interfere with the young who would participate in the costume parade between Poplar Street and Delaware Avenue, and Meril Dunn would be on an elevated platform in front of Marshall Pusey’s Insurance business, acting as master of ceremonies for the parade sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. A panel of judges (people from Laurel) would decide who had the most original, the prettiest, ugliest, scariest, and best group costumes. The costumed young people would parade in a huge elongated circle along Market Street between The Elizabeth Shop and Chipman’s Shoe Store, slowly marching around and around so that spectators who lined the sidewalks could view the costumes worn. Meril would describe some of
Moments with Mike Virginia ‘Mike’ Barton the costumes, exciting the crowd with his descriptions of the outfits. Then, after several times of walking about for viewing, the crowds would show their enthusiasm by clapping loudly for their favorite in each category. The judges would tally their personal votes, add that to the crowd vote, and the winners would be announced. Those were the days when families would spend considerable time deciding just what the costume of the year would be. Many parents would not only design the costume, but sewing machines would hum late into the night putting the creations together. Dads would get into the act as they applied paint or special trims or framing to some of the costumes. Hal-

Bob and Christine Halling have recently returned from a vacation visiting family and friends in the mid-west and spending some time in Chicago with their daughter, Janet, and her husband. They climbed the dunes (very high ones) in Warren Dunes State Park in Michigan by the shores of Lake Michigan and enjoyed a boating trip on Lake Maxinkuckee while visiting folks in Indiana. The weather cooperated completely by being just beautiful the entire time they were away. Last week Eleanor Paradee had the pleasure of a visit from her nephew who has spent the last year in Alaska. Michael Moore who lives in Colorado, and his mother, Diane Sammelwitz, who joined him here from Newark visited with cousins and had a great get together with Bruce Moore in Ocean City and cousins, Paula, Sally and Ben. The Laurel Lioness members will let out a gentle roar on Nov. 2, when they hold their annual mother-daughter banquet at RJs restaurant on that Thursday evening. Margaret Coladonato and sister, Hannah Mills, have returned from a visit to New Jersey where they enjoyed some quality time with their sister, Mary Ann Digiacinto, their brother and his wife, Butch and Thelma, brother Joe and cousin, Ruth Catalina. The “Chatter Hatters” one of the Red Hat groups from Laurel had lunch at the Baywood Country Club on Oct. 21. These groups of ladies are becoming very prolific around town and manage to check out, dine (and perhaps critique) many of the restaurants in our nearby areas. They have fun, too! Friends of the Laurel Library held their
monthly meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 17, and finalized plans for their “Tea for True Love” on Saturday, Oct. 28. If you haven’t already read the facts on this event it will be held in the community room, starting at noon on that date and though tickets have been sold, walk-ins are more than welcome. The price is $5 and there will be many books for sale, with tea and light refreshments served.
loween was a family affair. After the parade concluded, the kids would go door-to-door in their neighborhood, hoping the homeowner would have a tasty treat for their goodey bag. Then the children would go home and spread their goodey bag contents out on the table. There would be apples, oranges, nuts, and lots of candy. The big decision was always which piece of candy would be eaten first. The apples and oranges were always pushed to one side. After all, who wanted to eat something healthy, particularly after all that marching and going from door to door? Chocolate treats, or homemade cookies wee high on the list of goodies about to be ingested. Kids had a sugar high by bedtime but they were so tired that they went right to sleep after a hard evening of enjoying Halloween. During those “good old days,” elementary school students would wear their Halloween costumes to school on the special day. Homeroom mothers would bring in tasty treats and the joy of Halloween would be worked into the curriculum of the day. Nowadays, I am told, that these things no longer happen.
To me, that is a pity. For many children, Halloween is a happy day in their not-sojoyful life. Far too many of today’s kids don’t know what it is to go house-to-house and play Trick or Treat. They never have the opportunity to share in the creation of a costume, nor do they go door-to-door to get a bag of tasty treats. That is sad. A special piece of childhood has been taken away from the young students. Their creativity is squashed due to some silly rule or theory arrived at by a so-called professional who deems the day pointless or worthless. Come Halloween, Chuck and I will happily welcome the neighborhood kids, pretend we don’t know who is hiding under their masks, give them some high calorie candy. Some will even have costumed parents with them! (They also get a treat!) It will be a special time in the life of the young. And, they will be building memories that they will draw on 30 years from now. And, hopefully, recall with great joy the Halloweens of their childhood. Now, go buy those goodies, get in the spirit. You are never too old to have a fun Halloween!

Opinion Shocking news about smoke detectors
Guest Column A vote for jobs and growth By A. Richard Heffron It’s election time. Now is the business community’s chance to make its voice heard and ensure that businessfriendly candidates are elected to local, state and federal offices. To achieve this goal, adequate campaign financing and a full roster of volunteer support is a necessity. Some candidates are adept at making voters feel good, but very seldom vote to avoid business bottlenecks. Employers need to back candidates who understand that supporting business is a vote for jobs and growth. It is a fact of political life that campaigns cost money – and plenty of it. The amount of money needed to finance an effective campaign has escalated at an astounding rate. A competitive governor’s race now costs about $2 million. A state senate race will cost between $100,000 and $150,000; a state representative race, $50,000 to $100,000. These expenses cover print, radio and cable TV advertising, printing and mailing costs, and supplies – as well as some limited expenses for volunteers, phone banks, polling and consultants. Associations such as trial lawyers and medical professionals are adept at raising money for candidates. But the business community has lagged behind in political fund-raising. Business-friendly candidates must be properly financed through campaign donations, political action committees and fund raisers. Some companies already have gotten the message. In September, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. launched a voter registration drive to distribute state-specific voter registration forms to all 1.3 million store, club and distribution center employees across the United States. The company will also distribute bipartisan voter education information to all associates before Election Day. Wal-Mart also grants paid time off to its associates to make it to the polls. But registering and voting is not enough. It is in the best interests of businesses to encourage their employees to volunteer on campaigns. Volunteers play an essential role in any successful campaign. Their duties run the gamut from posting lawn signs and driving people to the polls on Election Day to helping a candidate develop positions on key issues and canvassing the electorate. The more people who are involved, the easier these daunting tasks are – and a well-staffed campaign can reach more of the electorate. A challenging yet crucial role business-people can play is identifying and recruiting qualified candidates. On Election Day, almost half of the races for Delaware’s state legislature will be uncontested. This is not what our Founding Fathers had in mind when they created our representative democracy. Participatory democracy is a right that carries with it certain obligations and responsibilities – namely involvement and voting. There was a time when business in Delaware encouraged employees to get involved, to run for offices from school board member to governor. The business community needs to renew these efforts. By doing so, employers will help elect candidates who understand the importance of a healthy business community. A. Richard Heffron is senior vice president, Government Affairs for the Delaware State Chamber of Commerce.

The following information was sent to the paper from Fire Services News. This Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. the fire stations throughout Delaware will be distributing free smoke detectors. Take time to protect your family by following this advice. Prevention is better than treatment for fire burns or worse. As they have done twice each year since March of 2002, Delaware firefighters will be at their stations receiving visitors for the fall 2006 edition of Wake Up Delaware, a home fire safety campaign during which free smoke detectors and replacement batteries are provided to residents who visit their local fire station. Why worry? Consider the following: • Most residential fire deaths occur during the hours when residents are asleep and are attributed to suffocation from smoke. • Smoke detectors (alarms) are the best early-warning device available to detect fire in the home, especially at night when occupants are asleep. • Smoke from a fire can overpower your lungs and begin to suffocate you in as little as two minutes. Early warning and escape are critical to surviving a fire in the home. • Roughly 70% of home fire deaths occur in homes with no smoke alarms or non-working smoke alarms. • In one-quarter of the reported fires in homes equipped with smoke alarms, the devices did not work. Households with NONWORKING smoke alarms now out number homes with NO smoke alarms at all. • Smoke alarms most often fail to sound because of missing, disconnected or dead batteries, according to the National Fire Protection Association, www.nfpa.org. Locally, since beginning the “Wake Up Delaware” campaign in 2002, firefighters around the state have distributed nearly 50,000 smoke detectors and 40,000 replacement batteries, all FREE of charge to residents.

The moon, and its relative distance to the Earth, affects tides on a monthly basis. When the moon is farthest from the Earth (apogee), tides of decreased range or currents of decreased speed occur. When the moon is closest to the Earth (perigee), the occurrence of increased range or currents of speed is more prevalent.
