Motorcycle Passenger
Died After Crash
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
Motorcycle passenger Sompis Clarke

died from severe injuries sustained from a
car crash. Clarke was severely injured after a collision with a Mustang in Lusby on
Monday afternoon.
According to police investigation, Mark
Douglas Clark was driving a 2008 Harley
Davidson motorcycle along with passenger Clarke, travelling east on Cove Point
Rd. Richard Walter Quade was driving a
Ford Mustang, which was stationary at the
stop sign at Little Cove Point Rd. and Cove
Point Rd. Quade was waiting to turn west
onto Cove Point Rd. He failed to yield the
right of way to the motorcycle. In an effort
to avoid a crash, the motorcycle driver took

evasive action. The motorcycle ended up
colliding with the Mustang head-on and
caused Douglas and Clarke to be ejected
from the motorcycle.
Both Douglas and Clarke were flown
to Prince Georges Shock Trauma to be
treated. However, Clarke died shortly after
arriving at the hospital.
Anyone who may have witnessed this
crash is asked to contact Jeff Hardesty of
the Calvert County Sheriffs Office Crash
Reconstruction Team. He can be reached

Pedestrian Injured
After Stuck By Car
in PrinceFrederick
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
On Friday morning, a pedestrian was
struck by a car when crossing the intersection of Route 4 and Dares Beach Rd. The
pedestrian was seriously injured in the
head area, but the sheriffs office said she
is likely to recover.
The injured pedestrian was a white
woman named Veronica Disney, 54, of
Chesapeake Beach. The driver of the car
involved in the accident was Trista Smith,
50, of St. Leonard.
According to police investigation, Smith
was driving a gray 2011 Nissan Altima,
travelling north on Route 4 in lane one.
The car was proceeding with a green light
through the intersection when Disney tried
to cross Route 4 from the east side of Dares
Beach Rd. towards Safeway.
When the accident happened, Disney
was talking on the phone and was not paying attention to the traffic, according to a
witness who was walking with Disney.
The witness tried to stop Disney, but she
continued to walk into the traffic, apparently aware of the danger, according to the
pressrelease.
When the sheriffs office and the crash

reconstruction team arrived at the scene
around 7 a.m., Disney was lying in themiddle of the road unresponsive. She was taken
to Prince Georges Hospital Shock Trauma
unit with severe injuries.
The pedestrian received injuries primarily to the area of her head, said Todd
Ireland, Patrol Commander of the Calvert
County Sheriffs Office. As of Monday,
it appears that she will recover from her
injuries.
The crash happened during morning
rush hour and caused a traffic backup. One
lane was closed at 7:17 a.m. and was open
more than an hour later at 8:57 a.m., according to Nixle alerts distributed by the
sheriffs office.
If any charges are filed, they would be
against her (Disney), Ireland said. The
witness was walking with her and tried to
stop her from crossing against the green
light, so the pedestrian is at fault.
As the investigation continues, anyone
with information related to this crash is
asked to call Jeff Hardestyat 410-535-2800
or email him athardesje@co.cal.md.us.

North Beach Town

Council Approves Film
FestivalProposal
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
The Town Council unanimously approved the proposal to host a three-day
North Beach American Film Festival in
June of 2017.
The proposal was brought up by Anthony
Greene, a Chesapeake Beach resident and
an independent filmmaker. Born in Washington D.C. and grew up in Prince Georges
County, Greene said he had a great experience with North Beach since becoming a
filmmaker and would love to give back to
the community.
The film festival will showcase independent films produced across the country,
highlighting those that exhibit the multicultural and diverse aspects of the American
life, according to the proposal.
Greene said hes interested in screening
films that would show an America with
experiences from people coming from all
walks of life.
It could be an Israeli or Korean American telling stories of their experiences living here, Greene said.
Film company Reel Independent Film
Extravaganza will produce the festival.
Greene said ten percent of the proceeds
will go to the Town of North Beach and another ten percent will go to the Twin Beach
Players, a local community theater group.
The funding of the film festival will
come from a combination of grants, sponsorships, donations and admission fees, according to Greene. Details are still under
discussion.
The festival will have about six screening blocks and a Sunday afternoon awards
ceremony. Two screenings will take place
on the beach and the remaining three will
be indoor. Greene suggested the Twin
Beaches Library as one of the potential indoor locations during the council work session on Thursday.
As the town tries to become the art and
entertainment district, the film festival
will certainly be part of it, Council Member Kenneth Wilcox said during the work
session.
Ratings of all films screened will be
within the range of PG-13. Food and services will be coordinated with local businesses. Film submission process will start
this October.
Calvert to Start Using Speed Cameras
The Calvert County Sheriffs Office

has announced the implementation of the
Countys automated speed enforcement
program. The County is now one of many
jurisdictions to use automated speed enforcement to reduce traffic crashes, pedestrian accidents, and save lives. The program
will provide automated enforcement in school
zones with a posted speed limit of at
least 20 miles per
hour. Speed cameras provide police
with one more tool
to protect pedestrians and other motorists by targeting

For Wounded Warriors,

The Battles Dont End
Once They Come Home
A Letter to the Editor
The day after Fathers Day, I had to tell
my husband that our grandson, Dustin
Wood, 33, died in Tallahassee, Florida. In
44 years of marriage, this was the hardest
thing I ever had to do.
Dustin tried to detox himself over two
days in order to have an artificial eye put in
place and, most important, to be free of alcohol. He lost the use of that eye after sustaining many explosions while serving two
tours each as a Marine in both Iraq and Afghanistan. He came back as a Sergeant but
also with PTSD, detached retinas, alcoholism and, most likely, brain complications.
He suffered headaches, had horrendous
nightmares and never spoke optimistically
about his future. He was a member of the
first Wounded Warrior class. We almost
lost him two years ago when his liver failed
due to alcohol poisoning. He was saved
by the doctors at the Gainesville Veterans
Hospital.
If your family has sustained such a loss,
we now understand your pain. Dustins

parents have now buried their oldest son.

We have to endure this loss as a family.
Dustin had so much promise but he took a
path that left him little hope. He wanted so
badly to go to college and have a happy life.
He is now in a better place with his fellow
Marines and all other men and women who
have given their lives for our country.
Dustin had a life well lived. He was a
good Marine and proud of it. Ten of his
Marine brothers came from all over the
United States to attend his funeral and pay
him the ultimate honor. He loved his family and his friends. He was a hunter, a fisherman, and loved bull riding.
No matter whether you have relatives
who have experienced these symptoms or
not, please give all your loving support to
the men and women who serve us faithfully and help them to have lives well lived.

Feature Story
Annmarie Summer
Project Brings Art and
Community Together
By Dandan Zou
Staff Writer
Since 2005, hundreds of visitors participate in Annmarie Gardens Public Art

Project each year.
This summer, the art project is named
Inflatable Images and Inspirations and
is led by artist-in-residence Hannah Jeremiah, a recent graduate from the Maryland
Institute College of Art.
Vistors are encouraged to draw pictures
and write down messages on pieces of
scraps and vinyl in the artLAB at Annmarie Garden. By the end of August, Jeremiah
will sew these scraps from visitors together
and create an inflatable dome large enough
for people to go inside and see their own
contributions.
So far, Jeremiah has collected hundreds
of creative scraps from participants and
expected to gather more in the weeks to
come. The project started in mid-June and
will last till the end of August. She is now
in the process of sewing the scraps together
to make the dome. Because of the leaks,
there will be one large fan blowing air into
the dome to keep it upright when the dome
makes its debut in Septembers Artsfest,

she said.
The essence of the art project is to make
it a community activity that allows visitors
to interact with art and be creative.
Now in her second month as the artistin-residence at Annmarie Garden, Jeremiah enjoys chatting with children who come
to visit with their families and working
with them on their ideas.
A few days ago, a visiting girl about
seven years old approached Jeremiah and
asked for her help to make an inflatable donut-shaped balloon. Jeremiah used a piece
of a white beach ball with some flower patterns on it and sewed together a small, triangular-shaped object. She was constantly
amazed by the girls imagination and her
determination to overcome difficulties to
achieve her goal.
The first problem they encountered was
sewing together a donut-shaped balloon,
which is geometrically too complicated to
accomplish. They later settled on a triangle. When the object leaked air because it
was sewed together, the girl suggested using tapes to cover the holes in between the
stitches. When that didnt fix all the leaks,
they used a hair dryer to keep it inflated.
Jeremiah said she enjoyed working with
the girl and hearing that she wanted to become an artist when she grew up. She was
also amazed to hear more creative ideas
from the girl. One of them was to insert
a light bulb on a headband and embed the
headband with a switch that would turn the

light bulb on whenever she has a new idea.
One of the struggles working with children is that you dont know their levels to
give them the right guidance, Jeremiah
said. But it was great to see someone
so devoted in making things that seem
impossible.
Born in Arkansas, Jeremiah grew up in
Connecticut and later came to Baltimore

for school. She developed an interest in sewing since she was young.
She still uses her grandmothers
sewing machine almost everyday
now. Growing up in the suburbs,
she also developed a curiosity about
over-abundance, waste and the unwanted. Whether its one earring in
the stairwell or a pyramid of empty
Snapple bottles, Jeremiah viewed
the discarded objects as catalysts
for flexible sculptures, installations
and other artistic expressions.
Initially wanting to make the
dome as tall as 17 feet, Jeremiah
changed her design and said she
would like to let the donated materials dictate the size of the dome.
She gets her plastic materials for the
dome mostly from donation. People
brought in shower curtains, beach
balls, pool toys, poked airbags,
cat litter bags, and so on. In this way, she
doesnt need to buy more plastics to fill the
material gap.
The public art project is designed to create a nurturing environment for emerging
artists who are interested in community
and public art projects and to provide opportunities for the public to interact with
art, according to Annmaries website.
Initially started in 2005, the first summer
project was called Passages, an installation inspired by a project in Central Park,
New York. In 2011, it was Wish Mandala
for which people made hundreds of wishing flags designed to create harmony in
the community. Last year, it was Modern
Petroglyphics, a stone carving installation featuring drawings from people in the
community.
Visitors are encouraged to come to Annmarie Garden and contribute to Jeremiahs
project. Participation is included with the
price of admission, which is $5 for adults,
$4 for military, $3 for youth and free for
members and children under the age of six.
The dome will stand on display at Annmaries annul Artsfest on September 17
and 18.

glazes, and perfecting techniques in the
ancient skill of Raku. Denise Breitburg is
a marine biologist at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center with a deep
passion for the beauty and the complexity
of the natural world. She says, Everything
about pottery is magical from the hypnotic spin of the potters wheel, to the transformation of a shapeless lump to a graceful
shape, to the mystery of colors appearing
in the heat of the kiln. Marie and Randy
Estabrook are a married couple sharing the
same passion for clay. This is our creative
outlet- Randy and I make beautiful ceramic art that reflects the designs and patterns
of the natural world, said Marie. Adam

A View From The
Bleachers
A Platform For Change

Recent sports headlines have been dominated by an all-star NBA forward from
Maryland. No, not the Skins fan from
Prince Georges County. Oh hes gotten
plenty of run after snubbing the Wizards,
crushing dreams in Oklahoma City and
inking a deal with the Golden State Warriors, the NBAs first non-LeBron-James
Evil Empire in years. Pause The Kevin
Durant Chronicles for a moment; a former
resident of Baltimore, the land of orange,
purple and Natty Boh, stirred up far more
important publicity last week.
Im not a fan of New York Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony. Yes, hes a bigtime scorer who can flat out drain the orange. But hes an obligatory defender, his
effort is questionable and theres no evidence that he makes his teammates better.
One dimensional. Generally overrated.
Not my cup of tea.
Thats Anthony the player. But Anthony
the man and unexpected political activist?
That guy has my attention. That guy has
my respect. In an overwhelmingly sad
week that saw police shoot and kill Philando Castile and Alton Sterling and Micah
Johnson kill five officers in Dallas, Anthony took to social media to express his
outrage. Here are his paraphrased thoughts
(the post is worth reading in its entirety):
We need to steer our anger in the right
directiontowards the system. Shooting
11 cops and killing 5 WILL NOT work
we need to come together more than anything at this time. We need each other. Im
calling on my fellow athletes to step up and
take charge. Theres NO more sitting back
and being afraid of tackling and addressing
political issues anymore. THE TIME IS
NOW. DEMAND CHANGE.
When confronted with domestic or international turmoil, I often turn to Fareed Zakarias book The Post-American World
for solace. In it, Zakaria argues that, by
historical comparison, we occupy a peaceful world, one whose cultural and economic
interconnectivity largely mitigates dangerous political discord and ill-intended personal or national ambition. The evidence is
convincing: Weve achieved unprecedented levels of trade and economic prosperity;
cultural barriers are reduced by travel and
information exchange, and; large scale war
between superpowers, the kind that results

in massive casualties and global instability,

doesnt exist.
Still, with alarmingly frequent terrorist
attacks and senseless killings, it is difficult to remain hopeful in humanitys grand
earthly coexistence, despite Zakarias logical, fact-based counterpoints. Human nature as it is, it seems that stereotypes will
corrupt the small-minded, greed will infect
the ambitious and religious zealotry will
distort the worship of a god into an instrument of pure evil.
The tendency for decent, loving and
well-intended individuals is to respond to
social calamity by controlling what they
can personal attitudes and actions and the
world view of youths they influence and
steadfastly remaining part of the solution.
The development of strategies that promote
the worlds safety, progressive international
relationships and the infrastructure for social fellowship and equality is deferred to a
nations leaders, a term often synonymous
with politicians.
Given the scope of todays challenges,
that is mostly an understandable and defensible reaction. For what happened in Minnesota, Louisiana and Texas during Americas Independence week, it isnt enough.
The world has a common opponent who
is terrorizing free, peaceful people around
the globe. Yet here we are in America, the
allegedly most diverse, open and tolerant
nation in the world, struggling with senseless internal violence. We have to demand
better of ourselves, resist shameful stereotypes and appreciate and promote our common humanity.
That is part of Anthonys point. The
added layer is that while sports is a fun,
joyous reprieve from the ugliness of everyday life, there comes a time when it should
be more. Anthonys fed up and willing to
use his NBA platform to be a change agent;
hes challenging colleagues to do the same.
We should all applaud his courageous activism and stand behind him, Knicks fan or
not. Otherwise were just individuals left
rereading books or returning to other familiar outlets to soothe the pain of the latest
crisis and retain hope in our flawed species.
For me, Anthonys crusade is well-time; I
need more than Zakarias wisdom to maintain faith in this world.

COMMISSIONERS
CORNER
By Evan Slaughenhoupt
Commissioner President
By Design
Town Centers, by design are envisioned

to have mixed uses, commercial, residential, community. By design, the plan for
Calvert County was to have largely rural areas for agriculture and residential
with commercial activities in the town
centers. Not all Town Centers are alike.
Commercial in Minor Town Centers is
intended to largely support the local community area. Dunkirk is nearly 100%
commercial with very little space remaining for much more development. Citizens
who lived near there were very active to
ensure Dunkirk did not draw consumers
from areas further north than the Waysons
Corner/Lothian area. Frankly, Owings is
so small that some consideration may be
given to turn it into a Village instead of a
Town Center. Huntingtown seems to have
citizens who favor changing it also into a
Village. None of these town centers have
public water/sewer and are unlikely in the
foreseeable future.
St. Leonard, also currently without
public sewer seems to teeter between
staying small or expand. The remaining minor town center, Lusby has seen
much growth; in fact, it may be possible
one day to be unable to see where Lusby
ends and Solomons begins. We will see.
Three Major Town Centers exist, Solomons, Prince Frederick and the beaches
(North Beach, Chesapeake Beach). The
most expansive commercial activities were
envisioned for these areas. The Beaches
(which are incorporated towns who determine their own future) and Solomons are
pretty much built out as areas within those
town center limits are pretty much all oc-
cupied. Prince Frederick is another story.

Prince Frederick has land for development
consistent with the Vision of the Comprehensive Master Plan, as well as areas where
the actual town center limits could expand.
In one district (New Town), there is a small
area (about 80 acres) where much focus
is currently to create a multi-use development, known as Armory Square.
When the presentation of the Charrette
for Armory Square was presented circa
2012, I asked a simple question. What zoning changes are needed to implement the
concepts and visions of that Charrette? The
current set of proposed text amendments
for the New Town District will facilitate
the development consistent with the mix
use vision that resulted from the Charrette.
Even a larger footprint store was shown
on the concept drawing from the Charrette which cannot occur without the text
amendments being adopted.
The Prince Frederick Master Plan; section VI.G.2 of the Prince Frederick Zoning
Ordinance states that the New Town District offers a unique opportunity to create
a comprehensively designed, mixed-use,
planned community at a key location within the Town Center. While the text amendments are not a comprehensive design the
amendments are consistent with that master plan and are comprehensive as they apply to the entire New Town District.
Consisting of commercial/retail not previously available within Calvert County,
Residential, Green Space, and Community Center, Armory Square is all consistent with the Comprehensive Master Plan,
Prince Frederick Master Plan; and by
design.
