11 Die In Crash Of Navy Plane
CHINCOTEAGUE, VA. (UP)- A Navy patrol bomber crashed and exploded in flames at the Chincoteague Naval Air Station Tuesday, killing all 11 persons aboard.
The twin-engined P2V6M struck the ground a short distance from the base, which is located six miles east of here on Virginia's eastern shore.
Police headquarters here said the plane apparently crashed on take-off.
"There was a crash which sounded like thunder here," a police officer said.
"We don't know whether the explosion happened in the air or on the ground, but we do know it could be heard six miles away."
The Navy said 11 men were on the plane and all were killed. The spokesman said the plane was on a routine flight from Chincoteague to the Marine base at Cherry Point, N.C.
The crash occurred 90 seconds after the patrol bomber took off on its flight, the Navy said.

Maryland State Eyes 5th Unbeaten Season
PRINCESS ANNE, Md. (AP)- Four unbeaten football seasons in the last seven and well on the way to another is Maryland State today.
That's Maryland State- not the University Of Maryland which you might think at first glance.
This year they're going side by side down the football victory trail with seven apiece and no defeats. Maryland State has scored 176 points to 19 for the opposition.
Behind the teams which was undefeated in 1949, 1950, 1953, and 1954 regular season schedules is Coach Vernon McCain. In his seven years he has the imposing record of 61 victories, 1 tie- and 5 defeats.
September, 1971 (Time Machine archive)
High School football was set to make its debut in Worcester County with teams in Snow Hill and Berlin but Pocomoke would not yet be fielding a team. The county commissioners had approved approximately $33,000 for each of the three High Schools for a football program. Pocomoke chose to use its first year funding for improvements to its athletic field, while continuing with its soccer program. Snow Hill and Berlin would continue their soccer programs as well.

ROTARY OFFICIAL IS VISITING MARYLAND
Arthur E. Winter of this city, district governor of Rotary, is now at Ocean City, Md., officially visiting from that base a number of the Rotary clubs located in that part of the district. He is accompanied by Mrs. Winter and writes that he is receiving a royal reception from the clubmen down there.
Already Mr. Winter has visited the clubs at Pocomoke City, Princess Anne, Crisfield, Salisbury and Cambridge. Next week he goes to the northern part of the peninsula, spending two solid weeks in this trip of visitation. The cordiality extended is exceptional, according to Mr. Winter, receptions being held at each place visited by the Rotarians.
Mr. Winter returns to Ocean City each night and is taking advantages of ocean bathing and swimming several hours each day.
November, 1968
Pocomoke City residents were remembering long-time city attorney L. Paul Ewell who passed away at the age of 91. The Pocomoke native was admitted to the Bar in 1902 and retired from active law practice in 1966. Ewell was a past president of the Worcester County Bar Association and a charter member of the Pocomoke City Lions Club.

(News from Maryland's constitutional convention)
A new county to be called Wicomico, is authorized to be formed on the Eastern Shore, out of portions of Worcester and Somerset, should the majority of the people within the bounds of the proposed county declare for it by their votes.

Solar Eclipse- Rare Celestial Sight On Sunday Morning
On Sunday skywatchers will be treated to the last solar eclipse of 2013.
The Nov. 3 hybrid solar eclipse will follow a path across the Atlantic Ocean and over Africa. In North America, the eclipse will be visible only to observers on the East Coast.
Sunday's eclipse is considered a hybrid because it's essentially a mashup of two familiar types of eclipse. It will start as an annular eclipse, with the awesome "ring of fire" around the sun, before morphing into a total solar eclipse, in which the sun is totally blocked for a brief period.
The Slooh Space Camera will livestream the eclipse online as seen from Kenya, where the sun and moon will form a total solar eclipse.
On the East Coast of the U.S., the best chance of seeing the hybrid solar eclipse will be at 6:30 a.m. ET. Skywatchers near Boston and New York should expect to see themoon covering more than half the sun. Farther south, a smaller portion of sun will be obscured.

Navy To Begin Landing Operations At NASA
The Navy has completed all necessary minor construction, including installation of runway lighting and markings to simulate the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, as well as the pouring of concrete pads for an Improved Fresnel Lens Optical Landing System and a work station for Landing Signal Officers . With construction complete, the facility is now capable of hosting E-2 and C-2 fielc carrier landing pass operations.
Conducting E-2 and C-2 passes at the Wallops Flight Facility will provide the Navy the ability to relieve some of the capacity issues at Navy Auxiliary Landing Field Fentress, in Chesapeake, Va., and reduce or eliminate the need for VAW-120, the E-2/C-2 Fleet Replacement Squadron, to conduct out-of-area detachments to NAS Jacksonville, Fla., four to six times per year to complete required field pass training.
This initiative entails positive net economic benefits to the region. In addition to the recently-completed construction, the Navy will pay for expanded service requirements at the airfield to support the operation , and also provide NASA direct payment for airfield use. Additionally, the ability to conduct two-week detachments will result in the requirement to obtain accomodation and transportation services on the civilian economy.

Handgun Theft In Accomack County Leads To Arrest In Pocomoke
Pocomoke City Police Department
Kelvin Sewell,
Police Chief
GREAT POLICE/TEAM WORK !
 |

The Sheriff's Office gave Pocomoke Police a description and location of the suspect.
Pocomoke City Police were able to locate and arrest the suspect in the area of 800 Lynn Haven Drive in Pocomoke City.

Accomack County Arsonist, Charles Smith, III, Admits Guilt
In Accomack County Circuit Court Thursday morning, Charles Smith III signed his name next to 67 counts of arson and one count of conspiracy to commit arson, admitting guilt to all the offenses.
Smith and his fiancee, Tonya Bundick, are accused in nearly 70 fires on Virginia's Eastern Shore between November 2012 and April of this year. The couple was arrested April 2. Bundick was indicted on two counts -- arson and conspiracy to commit arson while Smith was indicted for 68 offenses.
Smith originally pleaded not guilty during his arraignment. Smith's attorney, Carl Bundick, says he and his client received more information after the initial plea.
"In the reality and looking at the evidence that was available against Mr. Smith, it becomes a question of, what's trying to be done is in his best interest," explained Carl Bundick. "And that's the philosophy I always try to follow."
In court, the Commonwealth's Attorney Gary Agar and Carl Bundick presented the judge with a file that included a joint stipulation of facts supporting indictments. There were also four DVDs of interviews done with Smith. WAVY.com found summaries of each arson count in the file.
For example, the first count of arson, on Nov. 12, 2012 in Parksley, Smith said in the document, Tonya Bundick, "suddenly had the idea to burn [the house] down." Smith said he eventually set the fire because he was feeling an emotional connection to his fiancee and didn't want to disappoint her.
Months later, on March 12, 2013, the old Whispering Pines Motel went up in flames. Smith said Tonya Bundick dropped him off and he walked through a field to get the the motel. Smith said he found 40 to 50 mattresses and chairs and lit them with a rag and cigarette lighter.
Smith told investigators, "I always wanted to see the Whispering Pines burn."
The next night, March 13, 2013, Smith said he and Tonya Bundick were headed home when they passed the old Mallards restaurant on Bayside Road. Smith explains how the former owner did not pay his mother for signs she once made for him. The thought made him mad so he lit beer boxes on fire that were inside the building.
WAVY's Liz Palka was in the courtroom Thursday and learned Smith will most likely be formally sentenced in December. It was also mentioned in court that Smith is on medication for bipolar disorder.
During a motion hearing in Accomack County Tuesday, attorneys representing Bundick quit, according to Accomack County Circuit Court Clerk, Teresa. Now, Bundick’s trial is postponed until she can find new representation. When the trial is rescheduled, it will take place in Virginia Beach, due to a change of venue granted by Judge Taylor earlier this month.

HALLOWEEN & YOUR PETS
HALLOWEEN & YOUR PETS...
Pet experts Victoria Stillwell (of “It’s Me or The Dog”), Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Nicholas Dodman and America’s Veterinarian, Dr. Marty Becker—have compiled a list of Halloween safety tips for pet owners.
1. Keep the candy out of reach: While a single night of indulgence isn't likely to make you sick, that may not be the case with your pets. Both chocolate and the sweetener xylitol, which is found in sugar-free gums and an increasing number of other sweets, can be fatal to dogs.
2. No trick-or-treating: Don’t take your dog trick-or-treating with you, even if you’re confident that he/she will be able to handle it. Even if your dog is well-adjusted, some others you encounter may not be. Plus, seeing a bunch of four-foot tall Yodas and goblins can unnerve even the most placid dogs.
3. Put cords out of reach: Make sure all electric cords for holiday decorations are out of reach of your pets, especially if they’re chewers. Nibbling on a hot wire won’t turn out well for anyone.
4. Think twice about a costume: Not all pets look forward to putting on their favorite baseball player’s jersey or a pretty pink tutu. If your pet pants or acts stressed while dressed up, skip the costume. If your dog enjoys showing off, make sure he/she can move and stay cool while in costume.
5. Help their stress level: Be aware of how stressful the repeated ringing of the doorbell can be for dogs. Take some time to desensitize your pet to the sound of the doorbell or knocking in the days leading up to the big night so they’re prepared.
6. No answering the door: Keep your dog away from the door during trick or treating hours. Even if your dog is a good, well-mannered greeter, your smaller guests are not always prepared to see dogs bounding down the hallway or sniffing their candy bags. Plus, with the door constantly open, it’s easy for them to escape.
7. Tag them: Make sure your pet’s tags are as up to date as possible. Proper identification of all pets is necessary in case or their inadvertent escape.

| Charles Smith, III |
Smith, along with his girlfriend Tanya Bundick, are believed to have started the fires in mostly abandoned structures.

While Smith is charged with setting 67 of the fires, Bundick has only been charged in the March 31 fire in Melfa.

Worcester County Reports First Confirmed Case of Rabies in Family Pet for 2013
This incident follows an unusually high incidence this year in the County of rabid animals, mostly raccoons, which have come into contact with either people or pets. To date in 2013, the Health Department has confirmed 43 rabid animals consisting of 37 raccoons, 3 foxes, 1 groundhog, 1 bat and this dog.
There have also been 36 other suspect rabies investigations where the suspect animal was not able to be tested.
This latest case illustrates the importance of vaccinating pets against this deadly disease. Maryland law requires rabies vaccinations for dogs, cats and ferrets. The vaccination protects the animal for a limited time and it is important that pet owners follow up and revaccinate their pet when the protection expires. The date the animal is due for its next shot can be found on the rabies certificate provided by the veterinarian. If the date the animal is due is not known, pet owners should contact their veterinarian for the due date and vaccinate right away if expired.
Additionally, it is extremely important that any contact between a person or pet and a suspect rabid animal, such as raccoons, foxes, groundhogs, skunks, be reported immediately. Health Department, local law enforcement and/or Animal Control are available 7 days a week to evaluate exposures in order that steps can be taken to test the offending animal and minimize the risk of further exposure. Owners should not handle a pet bare handed immediately after contact to a wild animal – use gloves or other barrier if the pet must be handled.
For further information regarding rabies in Worcester County, go to www.worcesterhealth.org or contact your veterinarian.
Coast Guard Crew Recovers Cannons
PORTSMOUTH, Va. — The crew of the Coast Guard Cutter Smilax worked with personnel from the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources to recover five cannons and multiple barrel hoops from the Queen Anne's Revenge in Beaufort Inlet, N.C., Monday.
The Queen Anne's Revenge was the ship of the pirate Edward Teach, better known as Blackbeard, for more than a year before the ship ran aground on the shoals in the inlet.
The crew of the Smilax, a 100-foot inland construction tender, worked with NCDCR divers to lift the approximately one-ton cannons aboard the Smilax using a combination of flotation bags and the ship's crane.
U.S Coast Guard
IT'S FINALLY HALLOWEEN!!!
Please use extra caution when out Trick Or Treating this evening.
And don't forget to stop by the Pocomoke City Police Department for some Halloween "tricks or treats"!! Have your already collected candy checked by a Pocomoke City Police Officer.

"Why Do We Kill?" Episode 4 ~ With Words From Retired Baltimore City Homicide Detective Kelvin Sewell *
Episode 4:
The New Sociopaths
The New Sociopaths
On May 3, 2008, a star lacrosse play and honor student living in Cockeysville Maryland named Nicholas Browning made a decision that to this day remains unexplained. He took a break from playing video games at a friend’s house, walked home, picked up his father’s gun and shot his entire family as they slept.
Dead were his father Tom, ?" Sylvia, and little brothers Gregory 10 years old and Benjamin eight. Worse yet, Nicholas confessed to crime but gave little explanation or motive other than the fact that his father wouldn’t let him use the family car to attend a party.
But Nicholas was not alone in his savagery.
Several weeks later just miles from the Browning residence another promising young man inexplicably turned to murder. A 17-year old star athlete Lewin Powell had been fighting with his mother over his flagging grades., But at some point in the dispute Powell picked up a bat and beat his mother to death.
But he wasn’t done.
The 17 year old Lewin Powell hid his mother’s corpse in a bedroom and waited for his father to return from work. The elder Powell fell asleep on the couch, where his son attacked him with the same bat, fracturing his father’s skull in two places before the bewildered parent could subdue his murderous son.
It’s a case that confounds the normal explanations for violent crime. Neither boys came from troubled homes or suffered from mental illness. In fact, they were leading exemplary lives.
Which is I why I decided these crimes were worth exploring in depth in our continuing televisual dialog on crime called “Why Do We Kill?” In this episode we look at the influence of the simulacra upon our psyches and its potential influence on criminality.
Specifically, how our deepening immersion in a world of illusion and symbolism affects or behaviors and may limit our ability to be empathetic.

Trial Delayed For Accused Arsonist Tonya Bundick
Shannon Dunham and her husband Garrett Dunham made the motion to withdraw as counsel in Accomack County Circuit Court Tuesday.
The Dunhams told Judge Glen Tyler that motion had nothing to do with their belief in the strength or weakness of Bundick’s case, but instead cited a conflict of interest with another case that Garrett Dunham is handling which raised ethical concerns.
Dunham declined to discuss the specifics of what the conflict of interest entailed.
Garrett Dunham had only formally been appointed as co-counsel during a hearing last week. During that same hearing, Shannon Dunham had asked the court to continue Bundick’s trial set for November in Virginia Beach. Judge Tyler denied that motion and then denied another motion made by Shannon Dunham to withdraw from the case at that time.
Tonya Bundick had been set for a jury trial in Virginia Beach on November 6, but that has now been delayed until a new attorney can be appointed to represent her.
Bundick is currently facing one count of arson and one count of conspiracy to commit arson for a fire that occurred in Melfa in early April.
Her fiancée and co-conspirator Charlie Smith is facing 67 counts. His bench trial is set to begin in Accomack County on Thursday.
