Happy summer season to all! We are beginning the time period of the three H’s…Hazy, Hot and Humid. One of the very best results of summer is the visits from family and friends. “Company” al-ways brings fun times, including beach visits, game times with the grandchildren, going out to one of your favorite restau-rants for a great meal, or visiting the
ponies at Assateague. Whatever activities are your favorites, on behalf of myself and fellow Association officers, we wish you all a safe and joyous summer season. Additionally, I’d like to request that all owners and resi-dents remind their guests of how special we all feel about The Parke and to please respect this wonderful place we all call home. That would include reminding all visitors and guests of the 25mph speed limit throughout our community, picking up after one’s pet, and respecting all elements of the common areas. Have a great summer!
“it’s a smile, it’s a kiss, it’s a sip of wine … it’s summertime!”

knitting. You can bring a project of your own to work on and/or help us finish our charity afghan. You don’t have to sign up or RSVP; just bring your needs and come join us when your schedule permits. All knitters are welcome. For information, contact Elissa Mulligan on 410-641-8050 or Mary Ellen Clark on 732-259-9789. Try knitting as a pastime to feel great, stay sharp, and maybe even live longer. According to the June 2019 edition of Prevention Magazine, a hobby—Knit One, Purl Two—is healthy for your mind and body. Repetitive motions such as knitting and other needlecrafts can be soothing and elicit the body’s relaxation response, equivalent to the same calm, meditative feeling some people get from formal mindfulness practices or yoga. In a survey of more than 3,500 knitters, 81% who suffered from depression described feeling happier and calmer after clicking their needles. Other studies have shown that knitting can curb rumination (repetitive negative thoughts) in people with eating disorders, lessen the focus on chronic pain, and provide a respite from depressive thoughts.

Parke Profile: The Women’s Club of Ocean Pines By Karen Kaplan
This column will profile Parke residents who are involved in volunteer activities both individually and through community groups in The Parke and the Pines. If you would like to con-tribute ideas about your or your friends’ volunteer activities, please email me at [email protected] . I had been a Parke resident for about a year when my friend Joyce Piatti asked me if I wanted to become a member of the Women’s Club of Ocean Pines (WCOP). She happens to be the current vice president of the club. Other Parkies holding office are Donna McCracken as the current president and Gail Reese as the treasurer. Of the 97 members, 41 are Parke resi-dents. Go Parkies! Before signing up, I wasn’t fully aware of the function of this club. Joyce told me that the club raises money to do-nate scholarships and money to worthy community causes, has meetings with interesting guest speakers, and so on. Plus, there is the social aspect of meeting and interacting with other members from The Parke and the Pines. So I wrote my $10.00 check and got my membership. Last week I attended my first club function, the “Game Day Luncheon” at the Dunes Hotel. Members played cards, Mah Jongg, and numerous other games and enjoyed a nice lunch. A 50/50 raffle was held, and together with a gift bas-ket raffle, enough money was raised for one-third of a student scholarship! As a testament to the success of their fundraising activities, this year the club donated three scholarships to grad-uating Ocean Pines seniors at Decatur High School.
In addition to the three scholarships, recent recipients of WCOP donations have been OP Recreation and Parks, Coastal Hospice, the OP Veterans Memorial, the OP Fire Department, and the Mid-Atlantic Symphony. Monies are raised through membership fees, raffles, and events. There are two game days each season, a holiday luncheon, a Parke/Pines garage sale, and an upcoming fashion show set for October 21. Of course, you pick and choose the events and meetings you wish to attend. Meetings are held the first Thursday of each month from September-June. Recent guest presentations at meetings have been Coastal Hospice, the benefits of yoga (members participated in chair yoga in real time), chiropractic (our bal-ance as we age, and an offer to members of a complimentary chiropractic exam), and an informational pictorial about As-sateague Island. If you’d like to join the fun while giving back, email Joyce Piatti at [email protected].

your bank online payments are included. Well, it is here, through the mail! Yes, 99% of the online banking payments are actually printed checks. This is the most shocking reali-zation for Members who received a late letter in May. Many thought that it was an ACH payment, processed by computer. When they contacted their banks, they found out that yes, in-deed, they are sending paper checks. This is the most ineffi-cient manner to make your monthly assessment payments. The bank sends a check, much larger than a personal check, to the lockbox. The lockbox is designed to accept mailed checks in the envelopes sent with the coupon booklets, not the larger bank printed checks. A machine processes all of the mailed payments by opening the envelope, running the coupon through the scanner followed by the check. The coupon tells the computer which account to process the check by the num-bered code located at the bottom of the coupon. If an envelope does not contain a coupon, it is rejected by the machine, sep-arated out and then is collected and manually entered by a hu-man. If the check does not have an account number printed in the memo section, the person scans the check again and sends it to the Associa A/R department to find its rightful account. Each check rejected by the computer costs the Association an additional processing fee. Therefore, if any of you are paying your assessments through your online banking system, please contact your bank to find out if they are printing checks. If so, please know that the possibility of receiving a late fee is very high due to the longer processing time. For those who send personal checks with the coupons in the envelopes provided each year, you may be surprised to know that you too are at a higher risk of receiving late fees. In the last few weeks, I have worked with about 35 owners who received late fees that were sending their checks the first week of the month and were shocked to find out that it takes about 10 weekdays for the post office to deliver their checks to the lockbox in Georgia! Yes! I have no explanation for the deliv-ery time of USPS mail. But I can tell you that Barbara and I personally tracked payments mailed to the lockbox, and each time it was about 7-10 business days before they received it. The lockbox date-stamps each envelope received every day. When the payments are processed, the date-stamp is en-tered as the payment date, not the date that they are processed.This ensures that the lockbox is not delaying payments. I

In the last several weeks, I have had the opportunity to talk with many of you who I don’t see that often in the Club-house or at meetings. Unfortunately, I don’t think that you really appreciated the reason for our contact, as it pertained to a delinquency notice. The Parke recently approved a revised Collection Policy that states exactly how monthly assessments are to be paid and the consequences if they are not paid on time. You can find this policy on our website (www.theparkeatoceanpineshoa.com) under “Search the Parke,” “Governing Documents,” “Book of Resolutions.” The policy states that all assessments are due the first of the month and are considered late if not received by the 15th of the month. Legum & Norman/Associa offers three ways to make your monthly payments: by check mailed with your monthly payment coupon to the lockbox in Georgia, by online credit card payment submitted through the Legum and Nor-man website, or by Direct Debit. I want to take the time to share some helpful information that may make you reconsider your payment processing choice if you are not using Direct Debit at this time. Roughly 265 Members have enrolled in the Direct Deb-it system. Their monthly assessments are removed from the bank account of their choice on the 5th of each month or the following business day if the 5th falls on a Sunday or banking holiday. Required is a one-time completion of an enrollment form, which allows updating the payment amounts as the as-sessments are updated each year. This is truly the hassle-free method of monthly assessment payments, ensuring that your payment is always accurate and on time. There are no fees to you for this service. A very small number of Members pay each month by credit card through the Associa website. Members can make one-time payments or set up recurring payments, but there is a fee associated with each month’s payment. It is the same fee that the bank charges Associa to process credit card fees. The exact fees are posted on the website at the time that you make the payment. The remaining Members pay by sending a check through the mail. I am sure that some of you are wondering where

GM Report Continued From Page 5know this as I have seen the payments post a few days after the date that they post as being received. For instance, a pay-ment that finally showed up today may have a payment date of the 20th, two days ago. This means that the payment was processed today, but received on the 20th. Luckily, many of the Members writing personal checks and mailing them each month signed up for Direct Debit over the past few weeks - even the members who were worried about online banking theft. You see, all the checks that are sent to large companies (utilities, mortgages, cable and cell phone providers, credit card companies, etc.) are processed electronically. A computer, like that at the lockbox, scans all the checks into its database, sends the information to the issu-ing bank electronically, and then deposits the funds the next business day. The paper checks are destroyed and the image of your check is then coded and protected within the comput-er system. Therefore, if you are sending a paper check each month, you are giving your bank account information to that company 12 times a year, and 12 times they are scanning and coding your checking account information. Once Members understood that the Direct Debit setup is a one-time scan of your checking account information and is then coded for protection as opposed to the 12 times when using monthly personal checks, they were quick to sign up for Direct Debit. Especially when they received several late fees due to the time it took for their mail to reach the lockbox. TheCollection Policy clearly states that the Member is responsible for making timely payments. The Association does not waive late fees if the mail is slow, causing your monthly payments to be late. However, for those Members who are most comfortable sending personal checks each month, please do not send your check the first week of the month that it is due. I recommend sending your payments the last week of the month prior to the month that it is due. For example, for your payment due August 1st, send it the last week in July. That way it will credit to your account prior to the 15th of August, avoiding late fees due to any inconsistencies with mail transportation. I apologize for this lengthy explanation; however, I found that a full explanation was certainly appreciated by the major-ity of those who contacted me over the past several weeks. If you have questions about any of these three payment options, please contact me. I would be happy to answer your questions and address your concerns.
The Contract Subcommittee met on June 18. A Procure-ment Package was presented. The Committee voted to send it to the Board, recommending approval. The next meeting is scheduled for July 23 at 10:30am. A representative from the B&F Committee has visited each of the other committees to present information on the budget process for 2020. Budget Requests are due no later than August 1. Diane McGraw presented the final draft of Resolution A-25, “Administrative Procedures for Use of the Local Op-erating Bank Account/Debit Cards.” The Committee voted to send it to the Board for approval. The journal entries that were needed to properly accrue and book interest from the CDs were made, but still are not correct. Jim Driggers will follow up. Jim Driggers has reviewed our current and prospective cash needs in the Reserve account to determine if we are able to add funds to the CD investments that we currently have. It appears we will have additional funds to invest at year end. In the 4th quarter, we will look at the laddering situation, where rates are, and make recommendations for year-end. In July, we will begin to review The Parke insurance poli-cies. April statements were reviewed by members of the Com-mittee and any concerns were addressed. Our next meeting is Wednesday, July 24, at 9:30am and is open to all residents.

of the Governing Documents. Based on our work on this doc-ument, it was decided that we would delay finalizing the draft fine policy until the rewrite of Exhibit B is completed. If you are interested in reading the current Exhibit B, it can be found in the Book of Resolutions - Community Codes. This docu-ment provides clear requirements and procedures in process-ing cases of alleged violations of the Governing Documents. It covers enforcement procedures, Hearings, Suspension of Privileges and Levying of Fines. It is important for everyone to know their rights.

the Mail Pavilion. We hope this is generating a positive buzz about our lovely homes here in The Parke. There is still time to enter your project. Just fill out a nomination form to enter yourself or a neighbor. The forms and the box in which to put them are in the Clubhouse lobby. (We will call to ensure the neighbor’s agreement.) Then pictures will be taken and post-ed. The nomination period will end on August 31. The voting by Parke residents will begin on September 1 for two weeks. Each home will have one vote. Remember: the winner will receive a $50 award. Just keep your project within The Parke Guidelines. Have fun and good luck to all! In between Parke Pride and other DRC responsibilities, the Committee this year worked with The Parke arborist to devel-op a “Recommended List of Trees for Front Yard Plantings.” These trees are all a good size for our yards and would do well in our climate. If you need to replace your front yard tree, please consider this list. You will find it on The Parke website. Once you log in, click on “Search The Parke HOA” and then on “Governing Documents.” The list is at the bottom of the Governing Documents page.
Monthly Bench DRC Tip: This is the last time I will remind residents about cleaning their homes of mold, mildew and dirt.The drive-arounds start this week. I am going to assume that everyone has been reading my other reminders and that it will be a very easy process. In next month’s Bench, I will be con-gratulating all the blocks that have 100% clean homes. The next DRC meeting will be Tuesday, July 16, at 9:30am. We welcome any resident who would like to attend.

were very happy to return to our home in The Parke. The Parke is an amenities-based community. Summer in The Parke is a vacation experience every day. The OAC works diligently to maintain and enhance these amenities and wel-comes your feedback and ideas on accomplishing these goals. Attending OAC meetings to present ideas, recommendations, etc., is the best way to provide first-hand information and clar-ity to the OAC. The OAC is working on longer-term projects such as The Parke 2020 budget. The budget planning season is upon us. The OAC welcomes your ideas related to improving or chang-ing any of the OAC-related areas such as: landscaping, the Clubhouse and its amenities, the Mail Pavilion, the crabbing pier at the end of Annapolis Court, The Parke common ar-eas, and the nature trails. Now is the BEST time to present your idea(s) or suggestions so they may be considered for next year’s budget submission due August 1. Attending the next OAC meeting on Tuesday, July 9, in the Clubhouse at 9:30am is the BEST way to present your idea(s) or suggestions. The OAC wants and needs your input. The OAC is actively working with the Landscape Sub-committee led by Mike Simcock to finalize a three-year plan. This longer-term strategic view will be beneficial to The Parke for future fiscal planning and permit us to determine how well the plan is working. The OAC is also working on a standardized Request for Proposal (RFP) to be used for contract bidding and contrac-tor responses to provide a consistent and repeatable way to communicate to prospective contractors providing a scope of work, our insurance and other contract requirements, and a standardized format for responses. In closing, I have the same request as my last article. When you see one of your neighbors working in the common areas landscaping, mulching, cleaning, etc., please take a mo-ment to thank them. They are all volunteers working for the betterment of our community. A small, courteous recognition goes a long way.
An OPA Candidates Forum will be held on Tuesday, July 16, so plan to attend. On July 21 Trivia comes back to The Parke. So pull a team together or put your name in the book, and we’ll add you to a team. Fifty residents and guests enjoyed a trip to Tangier Island thanks to Cathy and Steve Habeger and cooperative weather. Some residents have expressed an interest in a trip to Smith Island, so we’ll look into that. Seated yoga and other ideas are in the works. We’re looking at scheduling a trip to Wallops Island in the fall as well as offering a “Brushes and Bubbles” class to release the inner artist in you. Knitting class is completing their project and will contin-ue with drop-in sessions and other projects. Right around the corner is the New England Cruise and upcoming trip to Niagara Falls and Erie Canal if we get enough participation. Again, keep looking for fliers and announcements as we are trying to slip in a movie or two. Also, a Crab Feast is set for Saturday, September 14.

On The Lighter SideWhat’s Wrong Pal?There’s a guy sitting at a bar, just looking at his drink. He stays like that for half an hour.Soon, a big trouble-making truck driver steps next to him, takes the drink from the guy, and just drinks it all down.The poor man starts crying.The truck driver says, “Come on man, I was just joking. Here, I’ll buy you another drink. I just can’t stand seeing a man crying.” “No, it’s not that. This day is the worst of my life. First, I fall asleep, and I’m late to the office. My boss, in an outrage, fires me. When I leave the building to my car, I found out it was stolen.” “The police say they can do nothing. I get a cab to return home and when I leave it, I remember I left my wallet and credit cards there. The cab driver just drives away. I go home and when I get there, I find my wife in bed with the gardener. I leave home and come to this bar.”“And when I was thinking about putting an end to my life, you show up and drank my poison.”
“It’s a cruel season that makes you get ready for bed while it’s light out.”

Crimson Parkettes The Crimson Parkettes enjoyed an amazing outing at Windmill Creek Vineyard on June 11 sponsored by Lois West. What an enlightening experience. Lois provided some appetizers, drinks, and snacks while we all enjoyed lunch. Then we had a tour of the historic mansion which was built in 1858. The tour was followed by wine tasting. Check out this place for their live music and special events. Thank you, Lois, for this perfect experience.

But be sure that you can pay the credit card balance in full every month. Do not trade deeper debt for an incremental im-provement in security.
7. Better yet, use mobile payments. Setting up payments from your phone - to use at retailers that accept Apple Pay or Google Pay - can help protect you from fraud. You don’t swipe cards that could be compromised by skimmers or expose your card numbers and security codes at the point of sale. These mobile payments are linked to a debit card or credit card, so the money comes from the same account.
8. Add your name to the Do Not Call Registry. While it may not block all calls, it can help reduce the number of unwanted calls. Call the FTC toll-free at 888-382-1222 from the phone you want to register, or go to donotcall.gov.
(To be continued next month.) If you want to receive my occasional security bulletins and tips, send an e-mail to me and I will add you to my distribution list. As a reminder, this column is also posted to the Forum on theparkeatoceanpineshoa.com website; and I also post some additional articles and security bulletins there occasionally.
Protecting Yourself from Fraud – Part 1 By Gene Edge ([email protected])
(Thanks to TechRepublic, CNET, and AARP, who provide much of the source material for my columns.)
Here are some tips to reduce your chances of getting ‘conned:’
1. Opt for electronic statements. Thieves can steal bank ac-count statements, bills and other documents from your home mailbox. Instead, choose electronic statements that get deliv-ered via email or directly into your online banking account. (Bonus: You may be able to avoid paper statement fees or get billing discounts by going electronic.)
2. Keep a shredder handy. Shred all bills and financial docu-ments to keep thieves from fishing them out of your trash. Use a cross-cut shredder, which cuts the paper into smaller pieces than a strip-cut shredder.
3. Freeze your credit report. This keeps creditors and others from “running credit” on you, protecting you from scammers who try to use your information to set up phony accounts. It’s now free, but you need to contact three credit reporting bu-reaus: Equifax, Experian and Transunion. You can always un-freeze it temporarily to allow legitimate access to your credit, such as when you apply for a loan.
4. Stop entering sweepstakes. You may be enticed by the vacation prize at the mall kiosk, but before you enter personal details on the form, ask, “What are you going to do with it.”
5. Stop giving out your Social Security number. Some busi-nesses, such as banks, credit agencies and government agen-cies, legitimately need your Social Security number for report-ing purposes. But that’s about it. I often hear this question, “If my doctor doesn’t need my SSN, why are they asking for it?”
6. Use a credit card whenever possible, not a debit card. If you have a problem, you’ll be covered if you use a credit card, but not as much for a debit card.

The Great Summer of 2019!!! Of course, every summer is great, but hoping this one will be extra special.

Household Hints should never be disposed of in the toilet. Even one can cause a flooded bathroom of epic proportions. 6. Cotton Swabs. Cotton swabs may seem tiny enough to pass through most drains. These cleaning tools do have a tendency of getting lodged very easily, however. When you are done from cleaning your ears, throw the Q-tips in the trash7. Kitty Litter. While it may seem logical to scoop cat poop into the toilet, where the waste goes, flushing cat feces is bad for the drains and environment. The kitty litter will ex-pand when mixed with water making it hard to move through plumbing. Furthermore, the poop itself is known to spread harmful bacteria in oceans and rivers. 8. Hair. If you tend to shed a lot of hair and you throw it into the toilet, don’t! Hair builds up and causes clogs in the shower - the exact same thing is true for the toilet.
8 Things You Shouldn’t Flush Down the Toilet The toilet is made to withstand copious amounts of human waste. However, not anything or everything can be flushed down the toilet. If you never want to have to pay a hefty price for an emergency plumber, we have a handy list for you today that explains the things you should never flush down a toilet. 1. Baby and Cosmetic Wipes. This includes wipes that are la-beled as ‘flushable’. Wipes can cause clogs over time and are horrible for septic systems. Because they don’t easily break down, they trigger crises in sewer systems across the country, causing millions of dollars in equipment damage. 2. Feminine Hygiene Products. Within every public restroom, you will likely find a sign telling you not dispose of feminine hygiene products in the toilet. This includes both sanitary pads and tampons which make for the most notorious clogs. 3. Paper Towels. While it can be tempting to throw paper tow-els in the toilet, doing so will give cause you nothing but trou-ble. Paper towels are made with materials that are much more durable than toilet paper and don’t break down fast enough to be flushed safely. 4. Condoms. Just like the other items on this list, condoms can cause a lot of problems in the sewage system. The latex used in condoms is made to withstand fluid and pressure so they won’t simply dissolve on their own when tossed down the toilet.5. Diapers. Diapers that come equipped with flushable inserts

“Hooray!, It’s the Good Ole Summertime”! Be sure to thoroughly water your lawn at least 3 times a week to keep it from dying…. It may turn brown and will recover in the Fall if the roots do not die. More fre-quent watering is required to keep a green, attractive lawn. Be sure to connect with Mother Nature and get outdoors !

Most find dinosaurs fascinating, particularly the gigantic ones. The largest land animals to have lived on the earth were the plant-eating sauropods, behemoths such as the long-necked Brontosaurus that lived during the Jurassic period (145-201 million years ago) and could reach dimen-sions of 75 feet long and over 30 tons in weight. But even this giant was overshadowed by the titanosaurs, supersized sau-ropods that arose later during the Cretaceous period (66-145 million years ago). These were the largest land animals ever to walk the earth and ranged in size to over 50 tons, more than a Boeing 737. But the standout dinosaur was the terrible lizard king: Ty-rannosaurus rex, star of the film Jurassic Park. T. rex was the largest known carnivore and must have terrorized its world in the late Cretaceous period (66-68 million years ago) in North America. The tyrannosaurs arose in Asia in the mid-Jurassic, and some migrated to North America in the late Jurassic via a then-existing land bridge that joined Siberia to Alaska. Their sizes increased, and by the end of the Cretaceous, the “king” ruled, though there were several large cousins (e.g., Alberto-saurus) found in both Asia and North America; however, T. rex has been found only in North America. T. rex grew to 40-42 feet long and weighed up to 9 tons. Over 50 fossils of T. rex have been found in the western U.S. and Canada. Their lifespans can be determined by the number of growth rings in their fossilized bones, much like that of the rings of tree trunks that are used to determine the age of the trees. None of the adult animals lived much past 30 years. In order to attain their enormous size, it is estimated that T. rex was eating 250 pounds of meat per day. The most impressive feature of T. rex was its massive head, the size of a smart car and filled with 50 sharp serrated teeth the size of bananas. The bite of T. rex has been calcu-lated to have exerted a force of 8,000-12,000 pounds per bite, when the jaws chomped down on a Triceratops. The alligator holds the present-day record for the force exhibited by its bite: 3000 pounds. As formidable as T. rex was, it was not long for this world. An asteroid estimated to be six miles wide (size of Mt. Ev erest) traveling about 45,000 mph struck what is now the Yucatan peninsula with a force of 100 trillion tons of TNT (equivalent to that of the energy released by the explosion ofa billion nuclear bombs) obliterating all within a radius of 600
miles. But worse was to come. This event threw up tremen-dous amounts of material into the atmosphere and set off 30 to100-foot high tsunamis across the world. Massive fires and earthquakes were unleashed far and wide, throwing incredible amounts of debris into the atmosphere that rained down all over the earth and blocked the sunlight, leading to the loss of much plant life and collapsing the food chains throughout the planet (Details of this event can be found at https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/04/08/the-day-the-dinosaurs-died). Thus all of the dinosaurs, save one lineage, were killed off. That one group of dinosaurs is still with us, flying about, chirping at sunrise and adding to the beauty around us: birds. Thomas Huxley, a friend of Darwin, made a direct con-nection between birds and dinosaurs in the 1860s, based in part on a discovery in 1861 of Archaeopteryx, a feathered dinosaur. His suggestion was not taken seriously until the 1970s and 1980s when some paleontologists made detailed comparisons between the skeletal arrangements of birds and dinosaurs. Their findings were controversial at that time, but high-tech computer modeling and penetrating scan methods of fossils in recent decades have established that our birds are indeed dinosaurs. Currently, all animals with collarbones have both right-side and left-side collarbones except birds whose collarbones have fused into what we call the wishbone. Like birds, the theropod dinosaurs (such as T. rex and velociraptors of Jussa-sic Park fame) had wishbones along with 100s of other skele-tal aspects common to both birds and dinosaurs but not found in other animals. The final compelling evidence was the dis-covery in the last 20 years of thousands of dinosaur fossils with well-preserved feather-like structures, in the Liaoning region of northeastern China. So, when you look out your window in the morning and spot those flying dinosaurs flitting about, don’t be alarmed.
