Story and Photo by Linda CicoiraA Nelsonia man who was charged with mur-
dering his Virginia Beach girlfriend turned agun on himself around 9:30 a.m. last Friday aslocal police surrounded his car along LankfordHighway in Rue.
Clarence Justin Clayton, 29, died of a gunshotwound to the head, according to a spokespersonfor the Medical Examiner’s Office in Norfolk. Hewas pronounced dead at the scene.
Accomack Sheriff Larry Giddens saidPortsmouth authorities contacted his office ear-lier that morning to request assistance in locat-ing Clayton, who they believed might be hidingin Accomack County. Giddens said Clayton wasreported as “armed and dangerous and drivinga 2006 red Mercedes-Benz that was involved”allegedly in crimes in Portsmouth.
Officers observed the vehicle on NelsoniaRoad, the sheriff said, noting, “Deputies con-verged on the 2006 red Mercedes-Benz and ini-tiated a traffic stop on Route 13 South near theintersection of Whitesneck Road.” Claytonpulled the vehicle to the shoulder of the high-way. “Before deputies were able to converge …the subject discharged a weapon, fatallywounding himself,” Giddens said.
At about 10:30 the previous night,Portsmouth police responded to a report of gun-shots in the 300 block of Port Centre Parkway.Upon arrival, officers found Mary Jane C. Abad,
22, of the 2700 block of Pulaski Loop in VirginiaBeach, dead of gunshot wounds.
Clayton, who also was listed as living in the800 block of Trafalgar Court, Virginia Beach,was charged with first-degree murder, use of afirearm in a felony and motor vehicle theft inconnection with the shooting.
Clayton belonged to the online social net-work, facebook.com His Web site said he was amember of the class of 1999 at Nandua HighSchool. His most recent comment onfacebook.com was made via a mobile phone on
May 17 and said, “Life is crazy. We can love somuch that you may go crazy. But the next per-son feels like that life is better without yourather then with … we as people say we loveand want family but we don’t take those wordsseriously. In life you must stand for somethingor we will fall for anything. So with that saiddon’t run from obstacles work thru them ratherthan giving up.”
The Accomack Sheriff ’s Office was assisted inthis case by the Virginia Department of Trans-portation and Parksley Police Department.

By Ron WestNorthampton supervisors this
week heard an FY 2011 Budgetproposal by County AdministratorKatie Nunez and discussed varioussolutions for handling the projectedshortfall. At its heart is the short-age in jail revenue vs. expenses, aswell as funding for the schools.
Nunez indicated that recent infor-mation provided by the regional jailsuperintendent shows that the stateis sending more prisoners to thecounty, thereby increasing state fund-ing for the facility. Nunez said thatnew figures show a projected jaildeficit of approximately $137,000.
Supervisor Sam Long Jr. recom-mended covering the shortagefrom the county’s undesignatedfund balance, which is maintainedat approximately 9 percent of thebudget for emergencies. The super-visors agreed to this solution forthat part of the deficit.
Supervisors Spencer Murrayand Richard Tankard spoke of theneed for the school system to re-duce its FY 2011 budget request
by 10 percent which would reducethe need to raise taxes for the com-ing year. Both supervisors have re-peatedly indicated that they op-pose a tax increase. SupervisorsLong, Willie Randall, Oliver Ben-nett, and Chairman Larry Tralaindicated their desire to fund theschool budget as presented, whichwould require a small increase in
the real-estate tax.An additional issue discussed
involved if and how to tax solar en-ergy farms should they be locatedin the county. The consensus wasto tax them based on the real-es-tate tax rate.
On a vote of 4-2 (Murray andTankard voting no), the supervisorsagreed to advertise the FY 2011
budget with a real-estate tax rate of53 cents per $100 value, a 4 cents-per-$100-valuation increase overFY 2010. This would provide levelfunding for the school system aswell as help to replenish the undes-ignated fund balance. The supervi-sors are not proposing to increasepersonal-property tax, which is cur-
4¢ Hike in Real-Estate Tax Rate Proposed in Northampton
By Ron WestApproximately 30 members of the public gathered at
the former Northampton Middle School in Machipongoto hear suggestions from the Northampton CountyBoard of Supervisors on how to keep Riverside ShoreMemorial Hospital in Nassawadox. Construction of anew facility has been proposed, but its location has not.
County staff presented demographics which showedthe tight-knit relationship of the medical community, in-dependent physicians, rescue squads and extended carefacilities. The current hospital site is within a half hourof emergency care for 22,000 Shore residents.
Figures compiled by County Planning DirectorSandra Benson showed that as many as 1,300 Acco-mack County residents travel north to Marylandmedical facilities in Salisbury, Crisfield, or Ocean City
rather than heading south to Nassawadox. ShouldRiverside decide to build a new medical facility in up-per Accomack County, many lower NorthamptonCounty residents would find themselves faced withcrossing the Chesapeake Bay or driving north formedical care, an hour’s drive.
Former Schools Superintendent Dr. Dawn Golds-tine cited the fact that many of those who are movingto the Shore are older retirees who find themselvesincreasingly in need of medical care. “More and morepeople will be using the hospital,” she said. “Many ofour residents can’t afford to cross the bay for medicalcare.” She noted that residents of Accomack Countyhave the option of going north for medical care.
Dave Kabler pointed out that if the hospital were to

rently set at $4.10 per $100 value.Following a public hearing and
brief discussion, the supervisorsrejected a proposal to place green-boxes at Eastville Station as atemporary waste collection site.
The supervisors have been seek-ing a permanent site for the boxesfor some time to provide a waste
collection facility for District 4(Eastville area).
Listing potential problems posedby the proposal, area resident Shel-ley Beasley cited health risks fromthe trash, increased traffic in a res-idential neighborhood, runoff intonearby waterways and unwantedanimals drawn to the site.
M.M. Duff spoke of the drainageissue for the propose site and indi-cated that it takes several days for
water to leave the area after aheavy rain.
Planning Director Sandra Ben-son reported that the PlanningCommission had conducted a pub-lic hearing last week and had voted7-0 to recommend that the site notbe approved for the greenboxes.
In other business, the supervi-sors also voted to award an as-bestos and lead abatement projectto Macsons Demolition and Engi-
neering Service of Norfolk for abase bid of $170,580, with an alter-nate bid for additional work on theold jail of $36,270. The supervisorsalso awarded Robinson, Farmer,Cox Associates a $79,0000 contractto conduct the FY 2010 county au-dit. The fee covers audit servicesfor the county and School Board,the Community Services Board,School Activity Funds and EasternShore Broadband Authority.
relocate to upper Accomack County, those movingto the Shore would be more likely to settle thereas opposed to residing an hour away in North-ampton County. Kabler suggested that such amove of the hospital would have an adverse effecton an already depressed real-estate market.
Exmore Interim Town Manager ArthurMiles addressed the issue of wastewater dis-posal, a need expressed by hospital officials.Miles said the Town of Exmore, which current-ly has an operational wastewater facility, wantsto work with the Town of Nassawadox and thehospital to provide the service in order to keepthe hospital in the county. “The economichealth of Northampton County is tied to thehospital,” he said. “The residents of Northamp-
ton County are relying on the Board of Super-visors to help keep the hospital in the county.”
Eastville Mayor Jim Sturgis discussed thehistory of the hospital and its ties to the coun-ty dating back 90 years. “The need for a hospi-tal has not diminished,” he said. “The residentsof the county need more than a ‘Doc in a Box’facility. Without a local hospital, we would needto make other arrangements for medical care.”
Long-time county resident Tommy Rayfieldcited the need for physicians to be within a shortdrive of the hospital. He noted that specialistswould be more likely to locate near the hospitalrather than in Northampton County. “If the hos-pital were to relocate to the north,” Rayfield said,“it would be like a nuclear attack in the Town ofNassawadox. There would be nothing left.”
Nassawadox Mayor Estelle Murphy stated thatthe town has made a commitment to work to keep
the hospital there. “The town would suffer greatlyif the hospital were to move,” Murphy said.
Supervisor Richard Tankard urged his col-leagues to take a unified stand with regards tospeaking to hospital officials about keeping thehospital in Northampton County. Tankard notedthat the hospital is the county’s largest employer.
Supervisor Willie Randall noted that onebenefit to the hospital is that the county doesnot charge it real-estate taxes. He indicatedthat the hospital board would be meeting onJune 3 to discuss the future of the hospital andwhere it may be located.
Supervisor Spencer Murray expressed con-cern that the makeup of the hospital board isslanted toward Accomack County.
Ultimately, the board directed Randall topress the hospital board at its June 3 meetingto keep the hospital in Nassawadox.

By Linda Cicoira The amount of money the
Navy’s U.S. Fleet Forces is willingto pay to lease the Melfa runwaywas not disclosed. But Accomackofficials have learned that it’s allabout competition from other in-terested airfields, restrictions thecounty might place on a contractand possible costs (that are beinganalyzed) to come to the area.
Navy spokesman Mark Anthonyaddressed the issues Tuesdaynight at a meeting with the Acco-mack Airport Commission andBoard of Supervisors. He said theflight touch-and-go missions beingproposed could cause dangerousrubber buildup on a portion of therunway, noise levels would beabout 91 decibels and the airfieldwould be closed to civilian trafficfor at least 15 hours a week whileoperations were being performed,probably in three-hour increments.
“There is going to be a sound,”said Anthony. “There’s definitelygoing to be a sound.” But the noisewould not be comparable to jets
heard in the Virginia Beach area.When three planes are brought
in next February for a demonstra-tion, “you’ll would know exactly,”he said. “You could hear the plane.You could see the plane. If it’s notcompatible, we would go no fur-ther.” Anthony said the contract is“strictly voluntary. If they want toget into the game, we encourage it… we want to make an award to aninterested party.”
“They’re going to leave a littlebit of rubber,” Anthony said of theE-2C Hawkeye and C-2 Grey-hound planes. “If they let it accu-mulate it could be very haz-ardous.” Chemicals would be need-ed to remove the debris. “We do itall the time. It would be part of thecontract … whatever it takes tokeep that airfield clear.”
“We realize there are impacts,”Anthony added. “Flying at night isgoing to cost more” because it’smore noticeable. “We’re looking fora place that needs the revenue.”
The rent money must stay atthe airfield and could not, for ex-
ample, be used to purchase schoolbuses, another spokesman said.
The Navy wants a convenientplace to test pilots on their abilityto land on aircraft carriers in warzones. They are so in need of theresource that they go all the way toFlorida to train several times ayear. “It’s an interim solution forus,” Anthony said about finding alocal field and entering a “three- tofive-year contract with one-yearrenewals.”
Five other airfields are interest-ed in the contract. A total of 16fields within 90 nautical milesfrom Naval Station Norfolk Cham-bers Field could get in the running.“The key is we want this to work,”he said. “Discontent after a yeardoesn’t do us any good. We wantthis for the long term.”
Anthony said he hopes to landthe first operation by January2012. An impact assessment is ex-pected to better evaluate costs andenvironmental concerns and pub-lic hearings would be offered be-fore the contract is signed.
Nancy Duncan of the AirportCommission expressed concernabout the three-hour periods thatlocal pilots would be kept from tak-ing off or landing at Melfa. Some-times “you have to go when youhave to go,” she said.
“That’s why it would be yourchoice,” said Anthony. “That issomething that you would definite-ly want to consider … if somethingwas to happen on a safety basis …the (Navy) plane would have toclimb.” However, he stressed,“When I have those three hours, Ineed those three hours … it wouldmake the airport more favorable.”
Anthony said the Navy would beable to keep close to the time if it isable to easily erect equipment andlights that would be used duringthe tests. “The key factor is thoselights,” worth $2.5 million “bor-rowed from Oceana. There’s not afactory that spits that thing out,”he said.
Other pilots wondered how farin advance the Navy schedule

would be announced. Anthony said“operational squadrons training”have a tight window. “It’s a perish-able skill … up to three days … toget to the carrier.” After that, hesaid the pilots must re-qualify forthe mission. Other training can be
scheduled 1.5 years in advance.The operations would generally
be from Monday to Friday 10months of the year, with 70 per-cent starting 30 minutes after sun-set. That means they could run un-til 12:30 a.m., he said.
There were also concerns raisedabout flying over Melfa.
“Could we avoid the town?”
asked Anthony. “Yes.” But the 1.3-to 1.5-mile area would move to an-other area. “The plane has to goover some ground,” he said.
Tom Schwartz of Melfa livesnear the end of the runway. He pre-viously complained about the po-tential noise. However, Tuesday hesaid if the Shore is “going to gainsomething significant,” he might beable to overlook “the noise issues.”
There were also questions aboutthe possibility of crashes.
“Aviation is obviously very con-
cerned about safety,” Anthony said.“We’re very concerned about thesafety of what our young men andwomen are doing. … We fly overVirginia Beach over 100,000 homes.There will always be an instructorup there with these folks. They arealready qualified to fly. This getsthem ready to crash-land on a run-way that is very, very, small.”

By Linda CicoiraThe deadline to pay the first
semi-annual personal-property taxbills issued in Accomack Countywas extended recently because theinvoices are being sent out aboutthree weeks behind schedule.
Finance Director Mike Masonsaid the delay is because it’s thefirst time the system has beenused. He said the county ordinancedoesn’t specify a due date, so in-stead of requiring payment byJune 5, the date was postponeduntil June 25 to give taxpayersmore time. Real-estate taxes will
still be due on June 5.“It took a little longer than we
expected” to ready the 40,000 per-sonal-property tax bills, Masonsaid. A Lynchburg company wasawarded the contract and will beprinting the bills, stuffing en-velopes and mailing the docu-ments this week.
A guide to understanding thenew bill and answers to frequentlyasked questions will be included inthe mailings, said Mason. The billswill include charges previously asso-ciated with vehicle decals, which areno longer being used in Accomack.

By Ron WestCheriton Town Council agreed
Wednesday to impose penalties onresidents who fail to pay their ve-hicle decal fee.
Council voted to impose a $40penalty on residents who choosenot to pay the fee. In addition,those vehicle owners’ names willbe flagged by the Department ofMotor Vehicles (DMV), thus limit-ing their ability to renew licensesor obtain vehicle tags.
The plan will be put in place be-ginning July 15 of this year. Town
residents who paid their vehiclefees to Northampton County willneed to obtain a refund from thecounty and pay their fee at Cheri-ton Town Office. Town residentsare reminded to subtract vehiclefees before remitting their pay-ment for personal-property taxesin order to avoid this problem inthe future.
Council agreed to hold a publichearing to discuss the possibilityof imposing a $20 fee for any addi-tional vehicles on which a residenthas not paid town fees.

By Angie H. CrutchleyMore than 200 people came out
May 16 to walk, run, or bike inOnancock in the March of Dimes,March for Babies. To date thoseparticipants have banked over400,000 dimes toward the goal of$78,000. According to CommunityDirector Susan Turner, “The moneyis still coming in and I’m pretty con-fident that we will meet our goal.”
Eighteen teams participated inthe 3.9-mile charity walk, begin-ning at the Onancock school andlooping through the streets ofOnancock. At the awards ceremonyfollowing the walk, Perdue wasawarded first place for the TopTeam, Shore Bank was given sec-ond place, and Tyson Foods wasthird. The Top Family Team wasTeam Allison. Broadwater Academywas named Top School Team, withMetompkin Elementary second,and Kegotank Elementary third.
“Our purpose today is to raisemoney for research for babies bornprematurely,” said Emcee Becky
Watson. “The more money put intoresearch, the closer the scientistswill come to all babies being bornat term.”
That research helped the am-bassador family, Courtney andJohn Franklin and their sons Cay-den and Cameron. Both boys wereborn prematurely. Cameron takesmedication for his thyroid condi-tion, which was detected by screen-ings developed by the March ofDimes and mandated by the localhospital, according to Turner.
There has been a decrease inpremature births over the last cou-ple of years. Sara Long, director ofprogram services for the VirginiaMarch of Dimes chapter, camefrom Richmond to be a part of thewalk-a-thon.
“Premature births have de-creased,” said Long. “Pre-termbirths have dropped almost 6% inthe last two years.”
The local fund-raising effort hasgotten increasingly inventive.Team Allison sold a compilation
CD, the Shore Made Music Sam-pler featuring local performingartists and bands. They also host-ed “Kids Idol,” a local version of thepopular “American Idol.”
Many of the schools went backto trying to raise money by thedime, an effort which proved quitesuccessful.
Terrence Giddens, an 11th grad-er at Northampton High School,walked for Ebenezer BaptistChurch. “If I was ever one of thoselittle babies, I would hope thatsomeone would help me out,” hesaid, describing his motive for par-ticipating in the walk.
While there were many newfaces at the walk, there were somethat had been around for a longtime. Warner Hargis, or “King HotDog” as he is known at Tasley Vol-unteer Fire Department, has servedthousands of hot dogs to hungryparticipants over the 30 years hehas volunteered. His partner incrime, Joe Lewis, said, “We do thissimply to benefit the community.”

ton residents who commentedabout offshore drilling in a pollconducted by the Eastern ShorePost a few weeks ago are still hold-ing firm to their beliefs despite theongoing oil spill in the Gulf of Mex-ico. Others are changing theirminds about the issue.
“I definitely support it,” JessicaGarcia of Painter wrote in April re-garding employment opportunitiesthat might come to the area withthe prospect of drilling off the Vir-ginia coast for natural gas and oil.Her brothers are supervisors whowork on oil rigs off the coast ofTexas and “make great money.”
But this week, Garcia’s tune hadchanged. “I’m not so sure now withall the news about the Gulf Coast,”she wrote. “I’m kind of split. TheEastern Shore needs jobs. Oildrilling will bring jobs. But for thepeople who have jobs who work inclams, if there were … an oil spillhere … there would be hundreds ofpeople out of work … I don’t thinkwe should take the risk.”
Garcia wrote, “Instead of worry-ing about oil drilling, why don’t wefocus on the cost of electricity inAccomack and Northampton coun-ties and get an explanation of whyso many people can’t afford theirlight bills?”
Jim Kenyon of Exmore said he’sstill against drilling off Virginia’scoast because of the possibility of aspill. “Little did I know a spill in theGulf might reach us anyway. I alsodidn’t know how poor the oversightwas on the drilling operation … foryears we were bending over back-wards for the oil companies with taxbreaks and other perks. Sadly wehave wasted so many years notworking on green solutions to our en-ergy problems … new oversight andmuch tougher requirements must bein place before drilling (is permitted)anywhere. We also need to pass theenergy bill and support new energytechnology with the money we havebeen giving to the oil companies.”
“Unfortunately, this event putsthe environment and the idea of oildrilling off Virginia in a very badpredicament,” wrote Nathan Metz-ger of Parksley. “I believe thatdrilling for oil will help out theAmerican economy, but at thesame time, I do not wish to hurt
the environment anymore than wealready have (i.e., car pollution,cutting down trees, etc.). This putsme at a crossroads in my decision… I guess in the end … drilling foroil overtakes my desire to protectthe environment. I do not want tosound like I don’t care … because Ido, but in these economic hard-ships, our never-ending depend-ence on oil and the troublesome re-lations with OPEC nations in theMiddle East force me to take theside of economic stability over sav-ing the environment.”
“What I really hope for is theadvanced development of reusableenergy to the point where we willno longer need oil to run the ma-chines,” Metzger added. “If theyever do decide to drill for oil off thecoast, I hope they take even morepreventative measures,” he wrote.
“I still feel the same way,” saidKaren Simpson of Quinby, who fa-vors drilling. “There needs to be

tighter restrictions on the oil compa-nies for oil recovery in case of a spill.The government dropped the ball inthis case by not confirming that BPOil had the latest oil recovery tech-nique available and workable. (Pres-ident Barack) Obama took nine daysto act on this latest spill — not ac-ceptable. He just named anotherfact-finding ‘commission.’ How willthis help?” she asked.
“I can’t think of one reason tosupport offshore oil given what’sgoing on in the Gulf of Mexico,”said Rhet Tignor of Hacks Neck.“We simply don’t have the techni-cal skills to protect ourselves. It issort of like my early years. MyMom says I knew how to take stuffapart several years before I knewhow to put stuff back together. Inmy case it was a toaster or an elec-tric beater. In the case of offshoreoil it is about our shoreline forhundreds of miles.”
“I am now even more stronglyopposed to drilling for oil off the
coast of Virginia,” Nadine Blan-chard of Machipongo wrote thisweek. “Sooner or later there will bea disaster of some sort to ruin theenvironment and the bay.”
“I still stand by my thought atthat time,” said Kay W. Lewis ofLee Mont. “There are necessaryevils and this is certainly a disas-ter. Any kind of disaster could hap-pen to us just due to our proximityto Wallops/Norfolk Shipbuilding/any of the Air Force bases (Dover)and seaports nearby where wemay have ships stationed.”
“I think that most folks havenow changed their views on thepossible drilling, including me,”said Ron West of Machipongo. “I fig-ured that if there were to be a leak,it would just move out into the GulfStream and dissipate out in the At-lantic without much problem. Nowthat there is over five million gal-lons in the Gulf, with more comingeach day, it looks to be on the levelof the Exxon Valdez issue.”
“I've been keeping up with thenews on the spill, and despite thesituation, my opinion remains un-
changed,” said Patrick Belote ofOnancock. “I try to look at all as-pects of the situation and not de-pend on emotion or sensationalismto form an opinion. There are somany oil platforms for explorationand production in existence thatthe statistical chance of this hap-pening (again) is so slim that therisk is worth the cost. I also believethat this planet can repair itselfmuch more efficiently and quicklythan environmentalists give itcredit for. The biggest danger fromthis oil spill is not the oil itself, butthe danger of a knee-jerk politicalreaction to halt oil (and possiblycoal) production.”
“I sincerely hope oil drilling inthe oceans is banned,” wroteChris Wardius of Wachapreague.“The earth is too sensitive. Wecould destroy it so fast. Put thefunds into wind power or other re-newable resources. It makes mesick to think about what is goingon in the Gulf Coast.”
“As I stated earlier, I’m for pro-tecting the jobs we have on theShore,” wrote Bobby Huether of
Pungoteague. “I would support aprogram that would provide jobs forour local economy. But look at thedevastation an oil spill here wouldcause. Not only the wildlife on ourbarrier islands, but the harm itwould cause our local waterman.”
“The northeaster that hit usthis past winter destroyed millionsof seed clams … they will recover,”Huether added. “An oil spill wouldhave destroyed the grounds forgenerations. The dying commercialsport fishing industry … would begone. What would happen to thosewho are fishing for pleasure in ourcreeks and back bays?”
“Oil spills are inherent in the oilbusiness,” wrote Hayden Roch-ester of Onancock. “It does not helpthat the current administration,like the previous one, waives envi-ronmental impact requirementsand has a very poor record of fol-lowing up on safety and environ-mental issues. Since the currentoil disaster started, 26 new leaseswere approved with a waiver of en-vironmental review.”

“There is no reason to believethe coast of Virginia is any moreimmune to oil spills than any-where else,” Rochester continued.“The Eastern Shore has thelargest undeveloped strip of coast-line on the East Coast. Besides be-ing a source of local pride and pro-viding tourism dollars and fish-eries income for us, it is essentialto bird populations. … By allowingoffshore drilling, we roll the dicewith this irreplaceable resource.”
Annette Mills of Pocomoke, Md.,said, “I believe the important issuenationwide is jobs and as long aswe continue to outsource jobs, wewill continue with a high unem-ployment rate. I believe if everyonewould honestly look at Washingtonthey would see that the liberalswould like to see all of us dependon the government for everything,therefore making two classes ofpeople — rich and poor (or slave).”
On the Eastern Shore we havelimited chances for Jobs, Jobs, and
Jobs,” wrote Wesley Edwards ofBelle Haven. “The public has stat-ed over and over they want moreand better jobs. The drilling off theVirginia coast is a once-in-a-life-time chance for the Shore to pickup hundreds of six-figure blue-col-lar jobs. These jobs would lowerthe property tax … would also stopsubsidy (from tax dollars) to theMelfa airport and pay for the bad-ly needed repairs and updates. Ifwe don’t do it, … some other neigh-boring state will,” he wrote.
“As for the spill in the Gulf ofMexico,” Edwards continued, “thiswill only make the new wells safer.There will be new and tighter reg-ulations before Virginia or any-body else gets a new permit.”
Lee Mapp of Nassawadox saidthe “biggest concern is how thestate will let the money flow. Wehave heard transportation forNorthern Virginia. This countyshould see some of the income.”
“Now that the spill has occurred… of this experience will come newtechnology and safety regulations,”Mapp wrote. “We always see this
after a disaster. California has de-clared its offshore off-limits. Itdoesn’t leave much but the EastCoast for exploration.”
“I don’t give it my whole-heartedsupport,” Mapp continued. “But Itruly believe that the Powers ThatBe will have it their way either proor con. I have always been in favorof wind energy.”
“I believe several things aboutoffshore oil drilling,” wrote ChrisChandler of Norfolk, an Onancocknative. “It is a necessary means toextract fossil fuels until we findthe means to no longer have to de-pend on it. Drilling off of the coastof Virginia will most likely bringlittle if any oil … but will probablytap into natural gas and methanegas — both of which are useful to-day for producing electricity.”
“The spill in the Gulf is a traves-ty and a horrendous accident thatcould have and should have beenprevented,” he continued. “Theamount of oil leaching from theGulf bottom would have been in-significant compared to the actualspill, if our government and its
agencies hadn’t acted so irrespon-sible and allowed for the omissionof key components to stop the leakin the first place.”
“In 50 years it may all be a mootpoint,” Chandler added. “Therewon’t be a market for it. The earth’spopulace, or what is left of it, willbe trying to just survive by livingoff of contaminated … water … andtrying to feed itself from oceansthat no longer harbor life. Anothergrand folly produced by man, engi-neered for man’s demise.”
“I would truly love to be able tosay now that I was wrong and justbeing paranoid — instead of beingable to say ‘I told you so,’ ” wroteSteve O’Kusky, a Maine residentwho grew up in Craddockville. “We,as a species, seem to never trulylearn to see where we … cause dev-astation to our environment. Evenwhen we are supposedly … start-ing to focus on finding ways tocause less impact and maybe evenclean up our mess a little, we stillkeep trying to find new ways tomake the same old mistakes — anddo them on even a grander scale.”

Keep Parking Lots at BeachDear Editor:
Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company hasbeen watching and listening with great interestto the debate over the parking issue over on As-sateague Island National Seashore. We feelthat in these trying and uncertain economictimes, eliminating parking at the beach will bea devastating blow to the businesses of Chin-coteague Island and surrounding towns.
The larger issue at hand is the safety of thevisitors and residents of our island who maybecome stranded on the beach should a thun-derstorm come up unexpectedly. The refugemanager, along with the group who conductedthe study, assured residents that in the event ofa storm or other act of Mother Nature, therewould be shelters along the beach to which peo-ple could go until the next trolley arrives totake them back to their parked car. From therethey would be on their own to unload from thetrolley, load items back into their car and pro-ceed to their destination while Mother Natureunleashes whatever she decides to send thatday. These steps could be saved if cars where al-ready parked on the beach itself.
The officers and members of ChincoteagueVolunteer Fire Company would like to formallyacknowledge that we oppose any measure thatwould eliminate parking on the beach itselfand particularly any measure that would jeop-ardize the lives and the safety of our visitorsand residents.

Pick GOP Candidate CarefullyDear Editor:
On June 8, Republicans will select, throughan open primary, a candidate to run for con-gress in the 2nd District, which includes theEastern Shore.
The Republican Party establishment has se-lected a candidate, Scott Rigell, who has been along-time donor to candidates for public office.He even made a $1,000 donation to Obama’spresidential campaign, but the party is sureMr. Rigell is their man and he has received theendorsement of many high-profile officials. Ifyou like the status quo, he’s your man.
Bert Mizusawa has a good resume, but re-portedly lives in Northern Virginia and has re-ceived many donations from the D.C. area.Enough said about an opportunist.
Scott Taylor is well-intentioned but has athin resume.
Ben Loyola and Ed Maulbeck both are re-tired Navy officers, Loyola commissioned fromthe acadamy, Maulbeck up from the ranks andboth have good resumes.
Navy experience should be a plus in the 2nd
District, populated by Navy personnel.Maulbeck might be considered the tea-party
insurgent and Loyola the studious conserva-tive, but neither could be mistaken for repre-senting the staus quo.
In a show of confidence, Maulbeck has post-ed links to the other candidates on his Web site.
Do your own research and make an informeddecision. The party establishment has madecandidate mistakes before.

Denise HardingTeam Captain, Shore Lifesavers
It’s easy to remember our he-roes on Memorial Day.
The holiday was first recognizedon May 5, 1866, to honor fallenUnion soldiers who died in the WarBetween the States. In 1882, it wasextended to honor anyone whofought and died for our country inany war.
In the early days it was called“Decoration Day” because of thepractice of decorating soldiers’graves with flowers. While Water-loo, N.Y., was officially declared thebirthplace of Memorial Day byPresident Lyndon Johnson in May1966, the origin of the day is debat-ed among dozens of cities.
According to a Yale Universityprofessor, former slaves inCharleston, S.C., observed the firstDecoration Day. A racecourse therewas used as a temporary Confeder-ate prison camp in 1865 and as amass grave for Union soldiers.
The former slaves exhumed thebodies and interred them properlyin individual graves. A newspaperreported that on May 1, 1865, acrowd of 10,000 gathered there for
a celebration that included ser-mons, singing, and a picnic on thegrounds, thereby creating the firstannual event.
Memorial Day was declared afederal holiday in 1971. The U.S.flag should be flown at half-staffuntil noon only, then raised to thetop of the staff on this holiday. Aformal observance of the dayshould also include Americanspausing at 3 p.m. for a moment ofsilence or to listen to “Taps.”
Let us not forget the latest re-ports that show almost 5,000 U.S.and coalition deaths in Iraq andalomost 2,000 in Afghanistan.More U.S. service people died inWorld War II than any other war.
Canadian physician and soldierJohn McCrae’s poem “In Flanders
Fields” inspired another author,Moina Michael. She came up withan idea of wearing red poppies onMemorial Day in 1915. She soldthe poppies to her friends and co-workers and gave the money toservicemen in need.
Her poem, “We Shall Keep theFaith,” includes this verse:
“We cherish too, the Poppy red That grows on fields where
valor led,It seems to signal to the skies That blood of heroes never dies.”
Today Memorial Day also marksthe unofficial start of summer. It isoften also a day for personal re-membrance. Families and individ-uals honor the memories of theirloved ones who have died.
