Along with junior goalkeeper Mike Fisher, senior defenseman David Henry is the veteran voice on a Holy Cross defense looking to improve on the 11.1 goals per game the unit surrendered last year.

Henry, a Davidsonville native and Severn graduate, has made 26 starts in the team’s last 30 contests and was named a captain in the offseason. Because of the Crusaders’ expected youth on defense, Holy Cross coach Jim Morrissey said Henry must avoid last season’s habit of collecting fouls.

“Dave’s got to stay out of the penalty box this year,” Morrissey said of Henry, who led the team in both penalties (15) and penalty minutes (12½). “He’s tried a couple different checks on the individual level so that he can stay out of the penalty box and dump the stick-swinging. … So we’ve got to keep him out of the penalty box and on the field. He’s our vocal leader back there. The guys trust him.”

    A Davidsonville man was sentenced to a year and a day in federal prison Tuesday for wire fraud stemming from a plot to defraud lenders and a title insurance company of $2.8 million, Maryland's U.S. Attorney's Office announced in a statement.
    The sentence offers Stephen J. Troese Sr., 72, the opportunity to have time knocked off his sentence for good behavior. Troese, who pleaded guilty in October, has also been given three years of supervised release following his incarceration.  
    According to the US Attorney's office,   Troese worked as a title attorney and managed several title companies that did business throughout the Baltimore-Washington region. Employee mistakes and embezzlements caused escrow accounts that Troese controlled to fall more than $2 million short by 2005.
    Troese attempted to cover the shortfall by twice refinancing his home and by using funds from new settlements. As the real estate market soured, there were too few settlements to cover the shortages and a title insurance company was forced to make payments, resulting in the $2.8 million loss.
    Two co-defendants in the case have also pleaded guilty. They are scheduled to be sentenced this month.

DAVIDSONVILLE, Md. (WUSA) -- A driver received minor injuries after his car struck a house on Thursday morning at about 1.
    According to Anne Arundel Fire Division Chief Michael Cox, a 
sedan left the roadway, came through a parking lot of a gas station and then hit another vehicle before striking a single family home in the 600 block of Central Ave W in the Davidsonville area. The car was resting inside the house.
    Cox says no one was at home at the time of the incident.
    The male driver was taken to Anne Arundel Medical Center in Annapolis with minor injuries, according to Cox.
    The Special Ops division responded to the scene and the collapse unit shored up load-baring walls to make it safe for a search. They searched areas around and under 
vehicle, but found nothing.
    Anne Arundel Police are investigating the cause of the incident.

From WUSA-TV News  (Tue. Jan 17)
 Police have reopened the westbound lanes of Route 50 in Davidsonville after an overnight collision between a car and a tractor trailer shut down those lanes for hours.  Traffic is getting by slowly and delays are heavy.
Maryland State Police say a vehicle was stopped, possibly disabled, partially in the travel lane and partially on the shoulder on westbound Route 50 just before Davidsonville Road (Rt. 424) when it was hit by a tractor trailer shortly after 2:00 Tuesday morning.
The driver of the vehicle that was struck has been taken to shock trauma in critical condition. A passenger in the stopped car went to Prince George's Hospital Center. The tractor trailer driver was not transported to the hospital.
Police say this stretch of Route 50 is particularly dark, which may have contributed to the crash. The road was completely closed until just before 6:00 a.m.
No charges are pending against tractor trailer driver.

From The Capital
A proposal to relieve overcrowding at Central Elementary School through redistricting will be considered at Wednesday's Board of Education meeting.
Under the plan, more than 100 students from Central would be split between Davidsonville and Mayo elementary schools. Edgewater Elementary School was not included in the plan because it is in line for construction improvements.
Redistricting is needed because Central is overcrowded while desks remain open at Davidsonville and Mayo, officials said. Central's capacity is 767 students; it is expected to have 840 by 2013.
Meanwhile, the capacity of Davidsonville is 727 and that of Mayo is 352. By 2013, those schools are projected to have 556 and 296 students, respectively.
A report from a committee of community residents included objections from parents requesting that their children not be moved from Central.
But "this has been less contentious process than most" redistricting proposals, said Chuck Yocum, who leads the redistricting process for the schools.
The three schools are similar in test scores and demographic measurements, he said. Also, all those who will be fifth-grade students next year at Central would have the option of completing their final year there.
The plan would:

  • Move students living along Muddy Creek Road, down to and including Wolfe's Reserve, from Central to Mayo.
  • Redistrict students living on Fiddlers Hill Road and those east of Muddy Creek Road and south of Central Avenue, as well at those in River Club Estates and those along Camp Letts Road, from Central to Mayo.
  • Move the Waterford, Annapolis Landing and Berkshireneighborhoods from Central to Davidsonville.

Although at least 22 percent of households in the Annapolis Landing community signed a petition against redistricting, community members also asked that their children be kept together in the same elementary school, Yocum said.
The proposal calls for students in those neighborhoods and any students living along the south side of Riva Road to be moved to Davidsonville Elementary.

    In the Capital Gazette photo by Tim Pratt,  Debra Cory looks on as Martin Hoy feeds two recently adopted pot-bellied pigs at a farm in Davidsonville. Cory’s boyfriend, Dave Blackburn, works at the Linthicum industrial park where the pigs were caught.
    The pair of pot-bellied pigs will eat just about anything, warm or cold, said Martin Hoy, who owns the farm. They especially love spaghetti.
    "You actually have to watch how much you feed them because, if you don't, they won't stop eating," Hoy said.
    Stimpson and Ren - whose quirky names hearken to the 1990s Nickelodeon cartoon "The Ren & Stimpy Show" - are eating much better these days than they were in September, when they were forced to fend for themselves near the Baltimore Washington Parkway in Linthicum.
    The county's Office of Animal Control believes a previous owner abandoned the pigs in late August or early September. The animals were spotted numerous times in a business park on Hammonds Ferry Road, but eluded Animal Control and Department of Natural Resources officers for weeks. One pig was finally caught Sept. 22 and the other was caught Sept. 28.
    After the animals were brought to the county shelter in Millersville, employees named them Miss Piggy and Kermit and worked with New Jersey-based Pig Placement Network to find new owners.
    Ultimately, Dave Blackburn and Debra Cory, a couple that lives on the farm with Hoy, adopted the pigs. Blackburn works in the business park and often saw the pigs on the property bordering the parkway.

On Monday at 1:27 p.m., a 23-year-old man was jogging near Davidsonville Park in the 3000 block of Patuxent River Road when he saw a man handling three dogs on retractable leashes, police said.

One of the dogs was able to get free and attacked the jogger.

During the attack, the handler fled with one of the three dogs, leaving the other two behind.

The jogger was eventually able to run away and call police. He was later taken to Anne Arundel Medical Center and was treated for wounds to his arms and legs.

According to the jogger and other witnesses, at least two of the dogs had been fighting at some point.

Animal Control responded and were able to find one of the two dogs, described as a white, brown and black American Bulldog mix.

The dog had visible wounds indicative of having been in a dog fight and was bleeding.

The second dog fled the area but was located and confined in a wooded area by a citizen. The dog was extremely aggressive and had to be tranquilized by Animal Control officers. The dog, described as a white and black American bulldog mix, also had wounds suggesting it been in a fight.

The dog later died en route to Animal Control.

The dog handler who fled the area is described as a black male in his mid 20's with some facial hair, wearing a green jacket, sunglasses and a Green Bay Packers hat that was recovered at the scene. He was possibly seen leaving the area in a gold-colored Dodge minivan with white logos on the sides traveling south on Patuxent River Road.

Anyone with information on the location of the third dog or on the identity or whereabouts of the dog handler that fled the scene is asked to contact Animal Control Officer Serena Beckner at 410-222-8900 ext. 3008.

As the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade makes its way through the streets of New York City this morning, an Archbishop Spalding High School senior will ride into the national spotlight.

Jordan Silver

Jordan Silver of Davidsonville is one of four lead singers performing the opening number in this year's parade.
Perched on a float above thousands of onlookers, Silver and three fellow members of New York-based Stagedoor Manor Performing Arts Camp will be performing a new song written specifically for the parade.
Following the opening, Silver and the other students will make their way to the top of the parade route and travel through Manhattan, eventually escorting Santa Claus into Herald Square. The parade will be broadcast on NBC.
"It's going to be awesome to perform in front of millions of people," Silver said.
Silver and his family left for New York on Friday afternoon. After spending a weekend in the city, Jordan has been busy this week with parade rehearsals. He and his Stagedoor Manor colleagues had only three days to learn the new song and dance routine.
Despite the large audience, Silver isn't nervous. He has been acting since he was 4 or 5 and has been in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade before, though not as a lead singer. He marched in the parade as a member of Stagedoor Manor in 2009.
Silver's mom, Louise, said she stopped getting nervous about her son's performances years ago.
"Now it's just pure exhilaration," she said.
Louise and Bruce Silver, Jordan's father, began taking Jordan and his older sister, Geri, to on-stage productions when they were children. The couple never pushed their children to participate in the arts, but the pair developed an affinity anyway.
Geri is a senior at Ithaca College in New York and maintains an interest in theatre. Jordan has taken singing and acting lessons, performed in countless on-stage productions and attended Stagedoor Manor camps for the better part of a decade. He plans to attend camp next summer for the eighth time after he graduates from Spalding.
Spalding principal Lewis Van Wambeke will be sad to see Silver leave.
"He's a phenomenal young man," Van Wambeke said. "He's very talented. He gives a lot of his time and energy to the school."
Silver hopes to pursue a career as a performer. He is looking at musical theatre programs at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh and University of Michigan.
He also is considering an English degree, but his ultimate goal is to perform, whether it's acting or singing or playing his guitar.
"Acting is the most fun you can have because you don't have to worry about being yourself," he said. "You can let everything else go away and perform."

At Davidsonville Elementary School earlier this week, 14 acting students made up their own creatures. They gave life to "squirms" and "gacks" and played a game with them.
Next up was an art activity, then a talk by instructor Tyler Herman about the various acting skills they used in the initial exercise. It was the third of eight weekly, after-school sessions.
"It's incredibly fun," said Herman, of Washington, D.C. "Their imaginations are boundless. My job ... is to say nothing's too much; nothing's too outlandish."
Tommy O'Brien certainly agreed. He was hopping around frantically and waving his arms while pretending to be one of the creatures. "I like this class," said the 8-year-old. "We get to act and play fun games."
Fellow third graders Katherine Campo and Lillian Baker said pretending to be someone or something other than themselves was challenging, but also very enjoyable.
"I learned that when you're acting and you're a different character, sometimes you have to change your voice," Lillian said.
It's especially hard to try to talk like a boy, she said. "For us girls, it's hard to act like a boy."

    Under cloudy skies hundreds of Holy Family church members enjoyed an afternoon of fellowship and fun while feasting on hotdogs, hamburgers and delicious sides and deserts prepared by the parishioners themselves on Sept. 18.
    Children gleefully jumped around in a horse-shaped moon bounce, tossed bean bags, had their faces painted, decorated pumpkins and crafted scarecrows with their parents at the western themed event  while Deacon Tom Beales treated parishioners to an old-fashioned wagon ride around church grounds.

   Katcef Bros. of Annapolis held their  first Harvest Beer Festival at Homestead Gardens in Davidsonville on Sept. 17 which  attracted more than 700 brew lovers.
    "I'm a beer enthusiast," said Bob Childs of Annapolis, sipping a pint outside the tasting tents. "I make beer, I drink beer, so to come to an event like this ... when there's a tasting at a store, the selection is usually pretty limited."
    Not so at this festival, which showcased about 50 different beers from a dozen breweries. The most popular, according to some event organizers, was the Box Car Pumpkin Porter from Charlottesville, Va.-based Starr Hill Brewery.
    Katcef Bros., an Annapolis beer distributor, organized the festival to benefit the Scenic Rivers Land Trust.
    "There will be one next year," said Neil Katcef, the company's president. "I'm overwhelmed by the turnout. It's so much more than we expected."

From The Capital
   Chas Thompson, who co-owns the Davidsonville Market Deli & Pizza with his wife Frannie, said much of the store's success lies in its blend of a friendly atmosphere, a loyal customer base, product variety and homemade goods, including everything from pizza to cupcakes to egg salad sandwiches.
    "We don't want to be a 7-Eleven. We don't want to be a High's," said Thompson, who has owned the market for six years.
    "People want good food and quality food, and they're willing to pay for it," he said.
    Thompson said his daughter will likely take over the market, which is now about 100 years old.
