Get fit and change your life with the free 24FIT Challenge.

Herbalife is an international compa-ny that is in over 90 countries and has been around for 35 years. Independant members offer customized plans to help people lose weight, gain weight, or build muscle.

A local Herbalife coach, Eric McKay runs his own 24FIT Challenge for the southern Maryland area.

The 24FIT Challenge runs month long challenges with two-week breaks in between each session. Before the start of the month, participants are measured and weighed and perform an initial assessment that includes exercises such as push-ups, sit-ups, and a mile-long run. The group then meets three times a week on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday in a morning session at 9 a.m. or an evening session at 6:30 p.m. The hour-long classes con-sist of cardio and bodyweight exercises and are taught by McKay who started with Herbalife a year ago.

The classes usually take place outside at the Hollywood Volunteer Fire De-partmen. The classes do plan on mov-ing indoors for upcoming challenges.

As of now, McKay has about 35 peo-ple in the night classes, with the morn-ing classes running a bit smaller.

“I only plan on growing,” he said.

At the end of the month-long fit chal-lenge a final assessment is performed. According to McKay, everyone takes about two minutes off their mile time and they do at least 10 more push-ups and sit-ups. McKay said in his morn-ing class he has one woman that has already lost 12 pounds.

“We’re making an impact…we’re going to change lives. That’s what it’s about, that’s what’s important,” said McKay.

It is not just about weight loss, how-ever. McKay said he can help people gain the energy they need to stay awake throughout the day.

It is not a requirement to be on the Herbalife program in order to partici-pate in the challenge. Participants can be any age or level and can come join at any stage throughout the challenge. Bring friends and family and enjoy a welcoming environment to get fit.

McKay said his goal for all partici-pants are results.

“People see their results, they see themselves changing,” said McKay, adding that the motivation and posi-tive energy from the class helps turn a can’t into a can.

The FIT Challenge will continue into the future with no plans on stop-ping. For more information, follow the FIT Challenge on Facebook at 24FIT Challenge SOMD.

Governor Larry Hogan today an-nounced the appointment of Elizabeth Hughes as Maryland’s State Historic Preservation Officer and confirmed her appointment by the Board of Trustees as the director of the Maryland Historical Trust (the Trust). Hughes has served as deputy director of the Trust since Oc-tober 2002 and has been acting direc-tor for the past 10 months. The Trust, a division of the Maryland Department of Planning, serves as Maryland’s State Historic Preservation Office and pro-vides direct assistance to a broad base of local, state, and federal stakeholders in the identification, protection, and en-hancement of heritage resources. The Trust administers a variety of historic preservation grant, loan, and tax credit programs including the Sustainable Communities Tax Credit, which lever-ages private investment in the rehabilita-tion of both commercial and residential historic properties.

“I congratulate Elizabeth Hughes and I am confident that she will serve the people of Maryland extremely well promoting and preserving state historic assets,” said Governor Hogan. “She is a dedicated public servant with years of experience in Maryland and on the na-tional level.”

“I am pleased Governor Hogan ap-pointed Elizabeth Hughes to serve as our State Historic Preservation Officer, while also confirming her appointment as director of the Trust,” said Secretary of Planning David R. Craig. “She is a recognized leader in the historical pres-

ervation community and we are fortu-nate to have her.”

As part of her duties as State Historic Preservation Officer and director of the Maryland Historical Trust, Hughes will oversee the management of the agency’s activities ranging from identification of archeological sites and standing struc-tures to regulatory and financial as-sistance programs. The State Historic Preservation Officer administers the national historic preservation program at the state level, reviews National Reg-ister of Historic Places nominations, maintains data on historic properties that have been identified but not yet nominated, and consults with federal agencies during the investigation of the effects of their undertakings on historic properties.

Hughes grew up on Maryland’s East-ern Shore and, as she describes it, was surrounded by history. Even though her 20-year career has been in Maryland, she has a broad national perspective in historic preservation having served on the board of the National Conference of State Historic Preservation Officers since 2004. She was elected the president of that organization in 2013, serving un-til 2017, and represented it on the presi-dentially appointed Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. Hughes holds a master’s degree in architectural his-tory from the University of Virginia and an undergraduate degree in American studies from Georgetown University.

CSM Presents Career Discussion with Chaz Pitts-Kyser

Back in 1945 Congress designated the first week in October as National Employ the Phys-ically Handicapped Week. In 1988, Congress expanded the week to a month and changed its name to National Disability Employment Awareness Month. The Commissioners of St. Mary’s County continued the tradition by is-suing a National Disability Awareness Month proclamation for St. Mary’s County during its weekly business meeting.

The commissioners recognize individuals with disabilities are an untapped resource and are among those experiencing the highest un-employment rate at 16.8 percent of any group in Maryland. “Employers can enhance and bring diversity to their businesses and work-places by creating equal career opportunities and practices in addition to hiring qualified individuals with disabilities,” said Commis-

sioner Todd Morgan (4th District.)The U.S. Department of Labor’s theme for

this year’s observance, which celebrates 70 years of Disability Employment Awareness Month, is “My disability is one part of who I am.” The goal is to raise awareness about dis-ability employment issues, honor the many diverse contributions of America's workers with disabilities, and convey that advancing disability employment is much more than just hiring; it is about creating a continuum of inclusion.

The commissioners urge county citizens to observe the month with appropriate programs and activities which reaffirm the dedication to create equal employment opportunities for people with disabilities.

Whatever it is, Eric from Calvert Pawn can probably help turn it back into cash. “The most common item we take in is gold jewelry, however we do accept a wide variety of items such as flat panel tv's, laptop comput-ers, coins, video games sys-tems, ipad tablets, ipods, com-mercial power tools, musical instruments, and collectibles, just to name a few things.” he says. If the item is acceptable to the pawnshop “we can eval-uate your items and either buy it directly from you, or offer you a pawn loan.”

uals who have an unexpected bill or emergency and just need a temporary loan against their item. Not everyone has access to a savings account or cred-it card.” he says. Up until the 1950s, pawnbrokers were the number one source of consum-er credit in the United States.

A pawn loan put simply is when a customers pledge property as collateral, and in return, pawnbrokers lend them mon-ey. When customers pay back the loan, their merchandise is returned to them. Pawn loans are made on everything from jewelry to electronics. If the customer elects not to redeem his or her collateral, there is no credit consequence to the bor-rower and the items are sold at a value price to retail consum-ers. “We usually have a nice se-lection of pre-owned electron-ics, jewelry, tools and musical instruments.

never know what you are going to have come in.” he says.

Television reality shows such as "Pawn Stars" have helped to change the image of the industry. High prices for gold and other precious metals,

meanwhile, have brought out more people as borrowers and sellers. “Gold and silver prices have fluctuated quite a bit the last few years, but overall pric-es are still high and customers are getting good value for their jewelry.”

So whether you're looking to turn your unwanted jewelry or other valuables in to cash, or just looking for a good deal, visit Calvert Pawn.

We would like to publicly thank Mr. Frank Taylor, owner of JT’s Kitchen in Sunderland, Md. and Mr. John Parker, own-er of the World Gym, in Prince Frederick, Md. for the time and effort they put into our field trip on Tuesday, Oct. 20. We toured their facilities and they both took time out of their busy schedules to sit down with us and teach us what it takes to run a successful business. We learned from Mr. Parker that as a business owner you need to treat everyone you come into contact with respectfully because you never know when you might see them again. We learned from Mr. Taylor that no one can make you do any-

thing that you don’t want to do and that your personal connec-tions to people are very impor-tant when you own your own business.

These two business owners gave back to their community by sharing invaluable informa-tion with future business lead-ers. The information provided on our field trip could never be taught in a classroom.

Martial ArtsPromote a Strong, Healthy Life StyleBy Sarah MillerStaff Writer

Calvert County is home to a wide vari-ety of martial arts studios, ensuring there is something for every age and ability lev-el. Which one is right for you?

Master (Kwan Jang Nim, in Korean) Kyle Webber started taking Tae Kwon Do classes at the age of 13. He was getting picked on a lot at school. He wasn’t good at sports and was having trouble finding a group to fit in with. Around that time, Master Kyu Shim was starting the first Black Belt Academies in Southern Mary-land. Tae Kwon Do was something new and, before Master Shim’s schools, there weren’t a lot of studios in the area.

The Black Belt Academy of Prince Frederick teaches Olympic-style Tae Kwon Do. Master Kyu Shim opened the Black Belt Academy of Prince Frederick in 2004 and Webber took the academy over a year and half later, at the age of 19.

Since Shim started the first Black Belt Academy the student population has grown large enough to hold two tourna-ments a year, one in the spring at Patuxent High School and one in the fall. This nice thing about martial arts, as opposed to team sports, is everyone competes against their own record and works at their own

pace. Webber’s school offers classes for all

levels throughout the day, including after school and evening classes.

Tae Kwon Do isn’t the only type of mar-tial art available in the county. The Calvert MMA Academy opened in 2007, bringing instruction in Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Thai Boxing to Southern Maryland for the first time, according to owner Jim Thrift. Jiu-Jitsu is a more defensive style, while Thai Boxing focuses on stand up striking and is more aggressive. Calvert MMA celebrat-ed its 10-year anniversary on Oct. 27.

According to the Calvert MMA web-site, “in addition to Gracie Jiu-Jitsu and Thai Boxing, we have had guest instruc-tors teach American freestyle wrestling,

western boxing, and Kodokan Judo at our academy. When we originally put ‘MMA’ in our name, we did it with the thought and purpose of MMA not being a ‘style’ of martial art, but the actual teaching of multiple martial art disciplines within one academy. Although we have students who compete in MMA events, today’s defini-tion of MMA is not what we intended for the public perception of our academy. We are a MMA academy because we offer multiple styles of martial arts within the Calvert MMA Academy.”

Calvert MMA has students ages 4 to 70, Thrift said. One of the most recent addi-tions to the lineup is a self-defense class designed for young women held on Mon-days, he said.

Finding the right martial arts school takes patience, Webber said. Most plac-es will let people try out their academy. There is a large variety of schools with a wide array of class sizes and intensity lev-els. When it comes down to it, the right fit is an individual choice.

“You can kind of go with your gut,” Webber said.

Martial arts styles, promote physical health and a philosophy of control, ac-cording to Lusby-based Tae Kwon Heroes manager Arielle Park.

Tae Kwon Heroes has been open 10 years, and recently moved to a location near Food Lion in Lusby.

Martial arts give students an oppor-tunity to learn to defend themselves and to build a lot of friendships. Involvement promotes an active and healthy lifestyle, he said.

The fall black belt academy tournament will be held on Nov. 14 at Shim’s academy in the Wildewood Shopping Center, locat-ed at 23415 Three Notch Rd. in California, Md.

 Francis “Skip” Ward, Jr., 83

Francis “Skip” Ward, Jr. (83), passed away peacefully on Fri-day, Oct .16, at home in Lusby, Md. Born Dec. 27, 1931 in Washing-ton, D.C., he was the son of the late Francis Nash Ward, Sr. and El-len Louise King. Skip was preceded in death by his beloved wife of 33 years, Barbara Jean Ward and is sur-vived by his children, Connie Wallach and James Ward, Sr.; stepchildren, Bar-bara Shewbridge, Marla Miller, Patricia Hilton, Marsha Turner, Lisa Winegard-ner, and Sara DiRienzo; four Siblings; 20 grandchildren and 15 great grand-children. Throughout his life, Skip was often referred to as the gentle giant, a kind and humble man who was respected and loved by all who knew him. He loved his family, friends, and baseball and much of his spare time was spent rooting for his home team, the Washington Na-tionals. He was a veteran of the United States Army National Guard and a life member at both Clinton and Silver Hill Volunteer Fire Departments (VFD) in Prince George’s County, Md. During his 50+ years as a devoted member of Clin-ton VFD, he held numerous positions that were vital to the department, some of which include President, Vice President, Treasurer and various others. He was essential in overseeing the department’s daily operations and much of their success and achievements are attributed to his commitment, dedication and leadership. Skip’s Feder-al career began in 1963 with the Govern-ment Printing Office (GPO) as a Press-man. He spent the majority of his 30+ year tenure as a Pressman on the mid-night shift and was extremely proud of

his work and the career he led. In 1992 he retired to the waterfront community of Mears Creek in Lusby, Md. where he and Jean resided since 1991. They shared a passion for the water and loved being out on their boat crabbing and fishing. They were greatly involved in their community and established friend-ships with many of their Mears Creek neighbors. Family, friends, and others whose lives Skip touched were invited to the Stallings-Williams American Le-gion Post 206, 3330 Chesapeake Beach Rd., Chesapeake Beach Md. 20732, on Wednesday, Oct. 28 for a visitation from 10 to 11 a.m. with a Memorial Ser-vice at 11 a.m. Interment followed in Md.

Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe brings back the tastes of the old days. An old-fashioned candy store with handmade chocolates is a great place for the person who wants to remember the candy from the good ol’ times or to taste a classic for the first time.

Owner Bonnie Blackwell started Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe in honor of her husband who, in 2001, was hit and killed by a drunk driver while running. He loved the old fashion candy Boston baked beans, which are peanuts covered in reddish chocolate shells that resemble baked beans when in bulk.

Blackwell thought she should open a store selling this sort of candy, so she began in a stall in Calvert Country Market. After a year or two of good business, she expand-ed into a larger space within the market. Business still went strong, but in 2007, Cal-vert Country Market closed. Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe then moved to Third Street in North Beach and later expanded into their current St. Leonard location in 2010.

Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe sells hand-made chocolates, toys, drink mixes for hot chocolate, coffee, and smoothies, sodas in glass bottles, old-fashioned candy, and more.

Blackwell is a self-taught chocolate mak-er and she makes everything from choco-late covered Oreos to white chocolate lem-on bark and milk chocolate cordial cherries to dark chocolate orange jellies.

Their best selling chocolate would be their Old Bay chocolate crabs, which make a unique, salty and sweet treat.

The kids love the gummies and the BeanBoozled Jelly Bellies.

Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe holds birthday parties where kids get to play games and make and decorate their own chocolate pops. The shoppe holds tea par-ties and chocolate making classes as well.

They do special orders for events like weddings and baby showers and even of-fer chocolate paintings. Blackwell and her daughter will paint anything requested such as pets, portraits, celebrities and more. They use chocolates ranging in white to

dark as their color palette.Coming up they will have 3D chocolate

pumpkins for Halloween (fudge filled or solid chocolate), 3D turkeys for Thanksgiv-ing, and Christmas candies.

During Christmas, Sweet Dreams Can-dy Shoppe allows customers to purchase a small Santa bag of chocolate for military families or soldiers overseas. The customer will leave the names and addresses and Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe will send it to wherever it needs to go. Last year the shoppe sent out over 50 pounds.

Make sure to stop by Sweet Dreams Can-dy Shoppe to pick up some candy for Hal-loween. They will be handing out chocolate on their porch to any children that come by.

Sweet Dreams Candy Shoppe is located at 4902 St. Leonard Rd. in St. Leonard. Their hours are Tuesday through Saturday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sunday 1 to 5 p.m. and closed on Mondays. For more information, call 410-610-3669, follow them on Face-book or Twitter or visit www.sweetdream-scandyshop.com.

Calvert High School Features Books That Can Take Teens

Somewhere New

Education

By Sarah MillerStaff Writer

High schools throughout Calvert County celebrated teen read week Oct. 18 through 24.

Teen read week is sponsored by Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), which is a subsidiary of the American Library Association, according to Cal-vert High School Media Assistant Sharon Kruder.

“I feel like in today’s world, teens forget they can read,” Kruder said, explaining that Teen Read Week is designed to encourage teens to read for fun.

Students have so much on their plates, between school, jobs, sports, and other extracurriculars, that they forget about picking up a book and reading just because they want to.

During teen read week, each library did something different, including activities and displays, Kruder said. Every year, YALSA chooses a different theme for Teen Read Week. This year’s theme was “Get Away at your Library.”

At Calvert High School, library staff put out books about travel and exotic locations, prompting students to pick them up as they go through the library between classes.

“It’s nice to see the written word is so important to some students,” Kruder said.

Local Schools CelebrateTeen Read Week

Teacher and principal effectiveness ratings showed improved precision across Maryland, according to the sec-ond annual State report card on educator evaluations.

In the second full report, completed last school year, 97.4 percent of teachers were rated either “highly effective” or “effective” in the state’s three-tiered rat-ing system, a slight increase over 2013-14. Likewise, 97.8 percent of principals were rated either “effective” or “highly effective.”

While overall ratings for educators remain high, differences in the percent-age of effective educators are emerging between schools and school systems.

“Our goal is to make certain all of our students, no matter where they live, have access to great teachers and school lead-ers,” said Interim State Superintendent of Schools Jack R. Smith. “Maryland has thousands of great educators. Our school systems can use this data to fur-ther improve classrooms, schools, and student success.”

The data, unveiled today before the Maryland State Board of Education, is based on the 2014-15 school year. It found that 44.55 percent of teach-ers were rated “highly effective,” the top tier of the three part rating system. Likewise, 47.1 percent of principals were rated “highly effective,” under the evalu-ation system.

Maryland school systems have spent the past five years developing TPE programs. Every Maryland school has begun to see the benefits from the pro-fessional development and collabora-tion used to develop Student Learning Objectives (SLOs) to guide instruction. Systems are currently in the third year of implementing new evaluation systems, and MSDE will continue to monitor progress in that implementation.

Today’s data release marks the sec-ond annual statewide effort to evalu-ate teacher and principal effectiveness based in part on student growth.

Each school district could develop its own evaluation system within State pa-rameters, or could use a State-developed system. In the end, each district con-structed an evaluation model based on its own interests, and each local superin-tendent and head of the local bargaining unit signed off on the design.

Evaluations were based on two fac-tors: (1) professional practice – items such as education, leadership and obser-vation; and (2) student growth. For the first two years of the evaluation system, student growth will be calculated exclu-sively by using the SLOs. SLOs are mea-surable instructional goals established for a specific group of students over a set period of time.

Today’s report found:• Students in low poverty schools are

more than two times more likely to have

a highly effective teacher than students in high poverty schools. Students in low poverty schools are nearly three times more likely to have a highly effective principal.

• Students in low minority schools are four times more likely to have a highly effective teacher than students in high minority schools. Students in low minority schools are more than twice as likely to have a principal rat-ed highly effective than those in high minority schools.

• Tenured teachers are more likely to be rated highly effective -- and less likely to be rated ineffective -- than untenured teachers.

• There is significant variation be-tween school systems in their teacher and principal effectiveness ratings.

All 24 of Maryland’s school sys-tems are now participating in the Statewide Teacher and Principal Eval-uation Program.

There are 43,818 teacher ratings included in today’s release, along with 1,101 principal ratings. The largest participating systems (Prince George’s County, Baltimore Coun-ty, Baltimore City, Anne Arundel County, and Howard County) repre-sent two-thirds of the ratings. The full range of data from Frederick and Montgomery Counties will be provid-ed in the summer 2016.

MSDE has involved all 24 school systems and various stakeholders in the professional development process for Teacher and Principal Evalua-tion. In 2014, MSDE and the Mary-land State Board of Education joined the Maryland State Education Associ-ation, Public School Superintendents Association of Maryland, Maryland Association of Boards of Education, Maryland Association of Secondary School Principals, Maryland Associa-tion of Elementary School Principals, and the Baltimore Teachers Union in a Memorandum of Understanding pledging to coordinate resources and strategies in the development of rigor-ous and measurable SLOs as part of that process.

Several reports on Maryland’s Teacher-Principal Evaluation system have already been released. For ex-ample, “Change in Practice in Mary-land: Student Learning Objectives and Teacher and Principal Evaluation,” issued last month by the Commu-nity Training and Assistance Center and the Mid-Atlantic Comprehensive Center of WestEd, found that support continues to grow for the evaluation process. Educators are embracing the use of SLOs as a tool to measure stu-dent growth and improve instruction.

Mopar Action at MDIR

on SaturdayBLEACHERSA View From The

By Ronald N. Guy Jr.Contributing Writer

When the undefeated Michigan Wolverines hosted the undefeated Michigan State Spartans a couple of weeks ago, I didn’t have an obvi-ous dog in the fight. I’ve never even visited Michigan. Maybe I flew west via Detroit but I can’t say for sure. I’ve bought a lot of albums from De-troit natives Kid Rock and Eminem, though. I shamelessly sing Bob Seger songs in the car. The beers from Bells Brewery in Comstock, Michigan are delightful. Does that qualify me to choose sides in the state’s biggest ri-valry? The Wolverine state’s collec-tive response to my overture: “Meh.”

Fair enough. True to my inescap-able mid-Atlantic form, I watched the game with passing interest. Michigan’s coach, Jim Harbaugh, was fascinating, as always. Michi-gan State’s quarterback looked good. Maybe he could help a certain pro football team in D.C.? Other than that, the hope was simply for good competition.

It delivered. Michigan led 10-7 at halftime, 20-14 at the end of the third quarter and 23-21 with 10 seconds left. Then it happened: The cruelty of high-level, competitive athletics bit the Wolverines. Michigan’s punt-er mishandled a low snap and com-pounded the error by fumbling the ball. Michigan State scooped it up and scored a game-winning touch-down as time expired.

In East Lansing, the reaction was joyous chaos. In Ann Arbor, and among Michigan nation at large, a celebration was replaced with com-plete devastation in ten seconds flat. Some handled the disappointment better than others.

The punter’s name is Blake O’Neill. He’s a 22-year-old graduate transfer from Weber State. He hails originally from Melbourne, Austra-lia and has played a lot more Aus-tralian rules football than American Football. But none of that matters. O’Neill is now synonymous with the fumbled punt, the gut-wrenching loss and dashed national title hopes. He’s in the goat fraternity with Bill Buckner and Scott Norwood, poor souls whose gaffs lead their Wiki pages.

Despite O’Neill’s botching of a basic football play at the worst of all moments, the majority of disap-pointed Wolverine faithful kept per-spective. Was it a gut punch? Did it

hurt? Might it be a bother for years? Will the sight of anything green or reruns of the movie 300 cause irri-tation? Indeed. But what was lost? Ultimately “just” a football game. The sun will rise. Taxes will come due. Donald Trump will insult…everyone. O’Neill will punt again. Michigan football will survive. Life will go on.

The rational thought was far from universal, though. O’Neill received hate mail, including death threats and even suicidal suggestions such as jumping off of a cliff and guzzling bleach.

That’s the world now. Everyone has a microphone and when someone loses a game – a game – degener-ates rush to their Twitter and Face-book accounts to wish death on their sudden enemies. Humanity is lost. Primal tendencies feast. There’s an alarming disrespect for the human being on the other end and how the denigration will impact the target’s life. Oh no, such moments inspire social media trolls, equipped with direct lines to the perpetrator, to exact revenge against those who wronged them: wedgie-administer-ing high school jocks, employers who laid them off, girls who broke their hearts, the mom who didn’t hug them enough, the fraternity that re-jected their pledge, the dad for pass-ing down his balding gene and their god for not giving them elite ath-letic prowess. Because in O’Neill’s situation, the trolls (in their twisted minds) would have done better. They would have executed the punt. Sure. Truth is, their continence is chal-lenged imagining such things; nerves compromise their performance while playing video games at noon on a random Tuesday.

The good news is O’Neill is doing fine. The stable majority of the Mich-igan community and the school’s Athletic Director have come to his defense. Crisis averted…this time. But there’s a Blake O’Neill in every in every town and a lot of them are much younger, much more emotion-ally vulnerable and lack the support afforded a player at a major college program. Collectively, our stable majority needs to protect those kids. They are inevitably in our schools. They might be playing in our cul-de-sacs. They could even be our own.

The clarity of his message and artistic style

were perfectly fused, providing transparency, a humorous and telling look at our leaders, ourselves and the world.
