BALTIMORE GUIDE 1WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2015

On Tuesday, November 24, President Barack Obama awarded Senator Barbara Mikulski the Presidential Medal of Freedom during a ceremony at the White House.

Obama called Mikulski “a lioness fighting for working families” when describing her legacy as the longest-serving woman in Congress. She was given the honor due to her efforts in improving women’s rights, access to higher education, and jobs for people in Maryland.

President Obama spoke about how she was pivotal in stopping the development of an interstate through Fell’s Point in the 1960s.

“Let’s just say you don’t want to get on the wrong side of Barbara Mikulski. She stopped that highway and jump-started one of the finest public service careers we’ve ever seen,” he said.

Mikulski was also applauded for her involvement of the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, which fought against wage discrim-ination. The Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act was

Walt’s Inn, a dive bar at 3201 O’Donnell St., must face the Liquor Board for violations associated with their hosting of live karaoke.

Walt’s has had live karaoke for over 25 years so the sudden violations came as a shock to the bar’s owners, who were “blindsided” according to lawyer Steve Fogleman, who is representing Walt’s Inn.

The violations came about because Walt’s, and the surrounding area, is zoned as R-8, or as residential.

According to current zoning legislation, any establishment listed as R-8 cannot have live entertainment under any condition. Fogleman explained that anything involving a microphone, such as karaoke, is considered live entertainment by the Liquor Board and is not permitted. A residentially zoned establishment can only have a live enter-tainment license if it was grandfathered in.

According to Liquor Board documents, four inspectors entered Walt’s at approximately 1:30 a.m. on Sunday, November 8. The inspectors made note of the exterior of the building which advertised live karaoke. For a half an hour, they discreetly witnessed patrons singing into a amplified microphone while music played. They presented photographs of bar customers performing as evidence to the Board. It is currently unknown who initially reported the karaoke to the Liquor Board.

Many residents were upset by this news and confused since Walt’s has had karaoke for such a long time without incident or Liquor Board involvement.

Fogleman and the bar’s owners encouraged people to send letters of support to the Liquor Board and to Sean Flanagan, the president of the Canton Community Association. Fogleman said they have received 50 letters

so far, many of which came from outside the city.

He said that keeping karaoke a part of Walt’s Inn will depend on if they can get their zoning changed, either through an amendment with Transform Baltimore or a spot zoning rewrite.

The original date of the Liquor Board hearing was set for Thursday, December 3, but Fogleman had it postponed until February.

“Walt’s Inn is a beloved institution in Canton and so many residents have told me that they have met so many friends and even spouses there during karaoke. Walt’s has been serving up karaoke almost as long as karaoke has been around, nearly 25 years. We are currently in the process of bringing Baltimore’s best karaoke bar in line with city policy,” said Fogleman.

Community feedback is still encouraged. Supporters of Walt’s Inn are encouraged to send letters of support to Liquor Board Executive Director Michelle Bailey-Hedgepeth at [email protected] and Canton Community Association President Sean Flanagan at [email protected].

“Keep these emails brief and positive, please. Sean already sympathizes with the situation at Walt’s. Your emails will be a way for him to demonstrate the support in the community to help Walt’s Inn,” said Fogleman.

He said that Walt’s is a local favorite in the Southeast and that the outpouring of support from residents is proof of that. He said the owners and licensees and are willing to work with the Liquor Board towards a solution.

We will follow this story as it develops.

On Monday, December 8, the Commission for Historical & Architectural Preservation (CHAP) will host a public meeting to discuss proposed changes to their guidelines.

CHAP was established by Article 6 of the City Code to designate historic districts within the city, integrate historic preservation recommendations into Baltimore City planning activities, and administer the historic property tax credit.

The Southeast is home to a number of historic districts, including Fell’s Point and Brewer’s Hill.

“Baltimore City’s fascinating history has shaped many unique neighborhoods and buildings. In 1964, recognizing the significance of these places, the City established the Commission for Historical and Architectural Preservation (CHAP) under Article 6 of the Baltimore City Code. The mission is to enhance and promote the culture and economy of Baltimore through the preservation of buildings, structures, sites, and neighborhoods that have aesthetic, historic, and architectural value,” states the proposal document.

To be considered “historic” a location has to meet certain criteria. They must:1. be associated with events that have made a

significant contribution to the broad patterns of Baltimore history; or

2. be associated with the lives of persons significant in Baltimore’s past;

3. embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction; or

4. have yielded or may be likely to yield information important in Baltimore prehistory or history. If a building makes it through this list and

multiple public meetings with community residents and property owners, CHAP staff will work with City Council and the Mayor’s office to prepare the ordinance and boundaries for the historic designation.

The updated version of CHAP’s guidelines created two new historic resource designations: The Potential Landmark List and the

Inventory of Historic Places. The former will be a list of structures eligible to be listed as landmarks. Those on the list will be provided with city protection for a limited time of 180 days. The Inventory of Historic Places will be a regulatory list that will document historically and architecturally noteworthy buildings for research and planning purposes.

CHAP hopes that these lists will help speed up the process of development in historic areas and preserve significant structures in expanding districts.

The proposal also places more focus on getting the residents and community associations of a neighborhood involved.Applicants are encouraged to relay information back to community groups and use their feedback to guide the processes and future hearings.

“Neighborhoods provide an advisory role in the Design Review process, advocate for important projects in their districts, and assist in reporting unpermitted work. Some neighborhood associations have created architectural review committees (ARCs) that are authorized to act on behalf of the

neighborhood association,” states the new rules and regulations.

Another new addition focuses on the care and maintenance of designated buildings. They will not be allowed to deteriorate due to owner negligence or abandonment.

“The impact of such properties on the quality of life and character of the historic district is substantial,” states the rules.

CHAP will work with the Department of Housing and Code Enforcement to have the location inspected and fines issued to the owner.

The revised plan will also clarify CHAP’s role in reviewing city-owned structures and the process of designating new historic districts.

CHAP is seeking public comments on the draft. To provide feedback or for more information, contact [email protected]. The meeting will take place on the 8th floor in the Phoebe Stanton Conference Room of the Department of Planning at 417 E. Fayette Street at noon.

Meatballs and modern cuisine: two new dining options in Fell’s Point

by GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

8 Ball Meatball The first is 8 Ball Meatball, a restaurant

who’s sole focus is, of course, meatballs! 8 Ball will be located at 814 S. Broadway, the former location of Tapas Adela Restaurant which closed in October.

8 Ball mimics the traditional salad bar format, but instead of lettuce, you have your choice of delicious meaty balls. You first pick the type of meatball you want. Your options include classic, spicy, herbed chicken (which is gluten-free), and vegetarian. The next stop is to pick a sauce, such as a classic tomato marinara or pesto. You then have one final decision, whether you want your meatball creation on a sub roll, in a bowl, or served as sliders. Every week, a new speciality meatball and sauce will be available. 8 Ball teases with one option on their Facebook page, a Greek ball with house made tzatziki sauce, that will be a part of the rotating menu.

The goal of 8 Ball is to bring the comfort food of your grandmother’s kitchen to Fell’s.

Meatball magic and creativity is always encouraged when putting together your order, so try something new.

“Anything can really be made into a meatball, which is the beauty of it,” states 8 Ball Meatball’s mission statement.

8 Ball is expected to open in mid-January. For more information on 8 Ball Meatball,

visit their website at www.8ballmeatball.com.

Modern Cook Shop The next new opening is Modern Cook

Shop, an artisan marketplace and bar from the owners of the popular Fork & Wrench restaurant on the edge Canton. At 901 South Wolfe St. in the Union Wharf apartment complex, The Modern Cook Shop will provide a variety of dine-in meals as well as carry-out including charcuterie plates, fresh coffee and baked goods. They even provide newspapers from all over the world.

“We’ll be open before you know it - serving you breakfast, lunch, dinner and drinks at our bar. Our marketplace at the entrance will offer meat from our charcuterie; fruit, vegetables, and salads; cheese, milk, eggs, and yogurt; packaged sandwiches and prepared meals; juice, water, tea and coffee; fresh flowers, magazines and Sunday newspapers. Our on-site bakery will offer fresh bread and pastries,” states Modern Cook Shop in a press release.

The menu will change seasonally based on what ingredients are fresh. There is a bar in the back that will have a dozen taps that will dispense cocktails and craft beer.

For more information on Modern Cook Shop, visit their Facebook page: www.facebook.com/moderncookshop. They will provide updates on their expected opening and offerings.

Fun Run, 5K supports PPPCS studentsby GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

The 4th Annual Patterson Park 5K & Fun Run will take over the park on Saturday, December 5.

The race is a fundraising effort for the students at the Patterson Park Public Charter School and their trips abroad. Currently, they are raising money for the 7th and 8th graders to go on a trip to Costa Rica in the spring of 2017.

Kimberly Coleman is a Spanish teacher at PPPCS and one of the event’s main organizers. She said the race began after the creaton of a running club within the school.

“We started the running club and we thought it would be a good way to support a healthy lifestyle and get more involvement and awareness from the community,” said Coleman.

To make sure the joy of racing is accessible to people of all physical make-up, there will be two runs of varying intensity. The Fun Run is a 1-mile course that will start and end at the Virginia Baker Recreation Center. The 5k will begin at the Patterson Park pagoda and follow a figure 8 route throughout the entire park.

“It’s really grown since that first year. It’s always evolving and we’re always adding to it.”

One such addition is for those of us who prefer beer glasses over tennis shoes. There will be a beer garden and homebrew tasting/competition after the races at noon. People can sample over 15 homemade beers by local brewers who will compete for the grand prize. Coleman said it’s fascinating to watch the brewers trade tips and recipes with each other.

“You don’t need to run the race, just come and drink!” said Coleman. Homebrew tastings can be purchased separately. The winning beer will get a cash prize and the Brewer’s

Choice, chosen by Nick Fertig, the owner of Full Tilt Brewing, will get $50 worth of brewing supplies.

All of the money raised will be used for helping students travel abroad. Coleman predicts they will make approximately $13,000-15,000.

85% of the children who attend PPPCS qualify for free or reduced lunch, Coleman explained. She added that the trip shouldn’t just be for the 15% of students who are more well-off.

In the past, the classes have gone to Spain to study art and architecture. They decided to try Costa Rica this year to learn more about geography and eco-tourism. For example, they plan on visiting volcanos and planting a tree in the rainforest. The students will also visit a school in the town of Monteverde.

Coleman said it’s an enrichment experience for the children and an opportunity they wouldn’t have anywhere else.

“They’re working very hard,” she said, speaking about how the children had an important role in getting sponsors for the race.

She said a group of students were given lessons about public speaking and the process of getting sponsorship. She said since the children began talking to potential sponsors, they have raised more money than ever.

“It’s so cute! They’re such hustlers,” she joked.

There will also be live music throughout the day from three bands and refreshments from High Grounds Coffee Roasters, Full Tilt Brewing, and more.

It’s hard to believe that it’s December already! As many of us begrudgingly start to bundle up for the cold and begin decorating, the Southeast is preparing for the holiday season with some fantastically festive holiday events.

On Tuesday, December 8, the 8th Annual O’Donnell Square Lamp Post Lighting Ceremony will illuminate the night in Canton. This is the kick-off event to the O’Donnell Square Holiday Celebration. All your favorite storefronts and the surrounding lamp posts will be decorated in holly jolly joy. Enjoy hot chocolate, cider, and egg nog while voting for your favorite decorations. There will be live music by The Cleanse and a special visit from Santa Claus who will arrive in a decked-out fire truck at 6:15 p.m. Join your neighbors for caroling and a free photo booth as well. The proceeds raised at the lighting will benefit the Believe In Tomorrow Children’s Foundation. The lamp lighting begins at 5:30 p.m. and the festivities will continue until9:30 p.m.

For more illumination, stop by the Patterson Park Pagoda for their annual Lighting Ceremony on Sunday, December 6. There will be plenty of music, refreshments, and sweet treats as you bask in the glow of the park. Celebrations begin at 5 p.m. and the pagoda will be lit at 5:30 p.m.

The next event, Olde Tyme Christmas in Fell’s Point, is a part of Miracle of Main Streets on Saturday, December 5. Olde Tyme Christmas will have a Christmas marketplace filled with artisan goods and crafts that will make perfect stocking-stuffers. The market will open at 9 a.m. with Santa arriving that morning in a tugboat. The man in red is apparently a master of arriving in style. There will be an eggnog drinking contest, a Christmas tree lighting, and a lighted boat parade at 6 p.m. The event also teases some “surprise celebrity guests” so you’ll just have to show up and see who they are for yourselves.

Now say you’re a grown-up and the kids are all asleep after a fun-filled day and you need a chance to unwind. Check out the Jingle Fells Bar Crawl on Saturday, December 12 in, naturally, Fell’s Point. The bar crawl begins at Dogwatch Tavern at 709 S. Broadway where you can register between 1-6 p.m.

“The best gifts aren’t wrapped in ribbon but rather served in a chilled mug, preferably by way of discounted drink specials and cover-free admission,” states the Jingle Fell’s Facebook event.

Enjoy drink specials at your favorite Fell’s Point restaurants and celebrate with your neighbors while embracing the “naughty” part of being naughty or nice.

Save $5 off your bar crawl ticket by donating a gift at Toys for Tots the day of the event. The toys will be distributed to needy families throughout the city, so hey, maybe you’ll be a little nice after all.

Tickets can be purchased at http://www.lindypromo.com/baltimore/barcrawl_baltimore-jingle-fells-2015.

So, embrace the season and enjoy these upcoming local events. Just because the holidays are weeks away doesn’t mean you can’t start celebrating now. And remember, ugly holiday sweaters are always encouraged!

Vincent De Paul (or Salvatore Zannino which he was known as back in the day) went from the streets of Highlandtown to the Emmy Awards.

This April, De Paul, an actor, Versace model, and producer from Baltimore, added Emmy award winner to his already impressive repertoire.

Born and raised in Highlandtown, De Paul got his start in the film business as a teenager by starring in John Water’s Hairspray in 1987. At the time, he didn’t know he wanted to be an actor and was contentedly working at his family’s funeral home, Zannino Funeral Home on Conkling St.

But this first role helped him discover what he was meant to do.

Since then he has starred in a variety of media, including the TV shows House of Cards and Mad Men and a variety of films. Most recently, he acted and produced in the web series The Bay.

“It is a story of families that live in the bay area in California and they fall in and out of love and there are scandals and all these things happen and it’s a lot of fun and drama,” he said, explaining that he plays a priest who gives spiritual advice to the wayward characters.

The Bay took home the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding New Approaches for a Drama Series this year.

“We didn’t expect to win or anything, but we all knew we had a good show. My heart just dropped. To be honored and recognized by the academy was just the most touching thing. I very much support the spirit of independent film making and I believe in and support that and to receive accolades for what you love doing, it’s just wonderful to have that feeling,” said De Paul about the honor.

On the heels of The Bay’s success, De Paul’s new project is a holiday film called, “Beverly Hills Christmas” which will air on Sunday, December 6 on the UPtv channel.

He plays the father of a spoiled, bratty, 14-year-old from Beverly Hills who must change her selfish ways with the help and guidance of an angel played by Dean Cain.

“I love the subject because I love movies that have redemption and where the characters have flaws and they go through everyday life and situations and learn how to deal with things,” he said. “The message is to be conscious and to be appreciative of all the things that we have and to be loving and accepting of all people. It’s about realizing the importance of being a good person and what Christmas is all about.”

De Paul excitedly explains the joy of filming on-site in scenic Beverly Hills during the Christmas season.

As a performer, he said you have to create a character from scratch. By adding layers, he adds believability and depth to a role.

“All actors pull from real life experience. I try as a performer to find the humanity of the person and find the core of who they are and from that I add on layers based on what they feel and what they experience.”

He credits his Southeast upbringing for his ability to sympathize and understand a wide diversity of people.

“I’m happy I got to grow up in Highlandtown where I’ve seen so many types of people that I had the honor of meeting. I get to borrow from them and turn elements of them into a character that comes about organically,” said De Paul.

De Paul is one of eight children, many of which still reside in Highlandtown. His sister, Felicia Zannino-Baker, owns the Highlandtown Gallery right across from the family funeral home. The Highlandtown Gallery will sell copies of Beverly Hills Christmas once it’s released in case you miss its TV debut.

“They always wanted us to be there for each other,” he said about the importance of family.

De Paul said his parents always encouraged their children to pursue their passion and to give back to the community while exploring their own creativity and skills.

De Paul has several other films coming up such as “Below The Surface” where he plays a scuba diver in Miami and “Ragers” where he is an American producer who encourages his students to write horror stories. Also, season 4 of The Bay will start this December.

De Paul lives in Los Angeles now, but enjoys coming back to Baltimore to spend time with his family and eat some hot dogs from G&A Restaurant, a favorite from his childhood.

BIRDS HOUSE by Andy MindzAk

Duquette’s best off-season moves

Before I get into some more serious topics over the next few weeks, I wanted to take a quick look at current Baltimore Orioles executive vice president Dan Duquette’s offseason portfolio, spanning the entire duration of his career.

Duquette got his first GM gig with the Montreal Expos in 1991 and stayed there until he accepted a job with the Boston Red Sox in 1994, a place he stayed until March of 2002, before new ownership pushed him out. Here is a list of some of his best offseason work.

12/19/1993 – Traded Delino DeShields to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Pedro Martinez – DeShields was a quality second baseman for the Expos before being dealt to Los Angeles. During his time in Montreal, DeShields batted .277 while stealing 187 bases over four seasons. He would go on to play 13 years in the majors and finish with a career .268 average and 463 stolen bases, but I think we know how things turned out for Pedro. During his time in Montreal, Martinez posted a 55-33 record with a 3.06 ERA to go along with two All Star appearances and a Cy Young award, his first of three, during a stellar 1997 season where he went 17-8 with a league best 1.90 ERA and 13 complete games.

11/18/1997 – Traded Carl Pavano and Tony Armas, Jr. to Montreal Expos for Pedro Martinez – As if once wasn’t enough, Duquette made another brilliant move for Pedro Martinez, this time with his new employer, the Boston Red Sox. Martinez would call Boston home for seven seasons, his last of which helped them win their first World Series since 1912 and also won two more Cy Young awards. Overall, Martinez went 117-37 with the Red Sox to go along with a 2.52 ERA. Pavano didn’t do much with Montreal and really had only one good season which came in 2004 while a member of the Florida Marlins before the New York Yankees threw a lot of money his way. Tony Armas, Jr. pitched decently well for the Expos and eventually the Washington Nationals, but nowhere near the talent of Martinez.

12/11/1991 – Traded Dave Martinez, Willie Greene and Scott Ruskin to the Cincinnati Reds for John Wetteland and Bill Risley. The main move here was acquiring closer Wetteland, who was traded to the Reds by the Dodgers about two weeks before this deal went down. Wetteland never actually pitched for the

Reds, but when he went to Montreal, he became one of the premier closers in all of baseball. During his three years with the Expos, Wetteland would post an ERA of 2.32 and save 105 games before going to New York to close out the 1996 World Series with the Yankees.

3/1/1993 – Signed Vladimir Guerrero as an amateur free agent – I still have no idea how Guerrero was such a good hitter. If you ever watched him hit, he swung at just about everything and found a way to make contact. Don’t believe me? Guerrero never struck out more than 95 times in a season yet still finished with a career .318 batting average and 449 career home runs. I remember watching him while a member of the Los Angeles Angels come in to Camden Yards and hit a ball that actually bounced in front of home plate, off the wall for a double. The umpires never called that a dead ball for bouncing before crossing the plate, but Vlad didn’t care. Vlad was an unreal talent that might end up in Cooperstown.

12/19/2000 – Signed Manny Ramirez as a free agent – Defensively, he was atrocious. Offensively, he was unreal. Coming off a 2000 season with the Cleveland Indians that saw him bat .351 with 38 HR and 122 RBI, Duquette signed Ramirez as a free agent which paid off big time. Ramirez was the heart of the Boston lineup for the eight years he was there, as he was also an All Star every year in Boston. All in all, Ramirez batted .312 during his time in Boston to go along with 274 HR and 868 RBI as he helped Boston win two World Series titles.

If you had purchased $1000.00 of Delta Airlines stock a year ago, you would have $49.00 left. With Fanny Mae, you would have $2.50 left of

the original $1000.00. With AIG, you would have less than $15.00 left. But if you had purchased

$1000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the cans for aluminum recycling refund,

you would have $214.00 CASH!!!

Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink often and

recycle. Its called theKING LIQUORS 401-KEG PLAN!

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1MIKULSKI: given Medal of Freedom awardone of the first major laws Obama signed as president. She also helped craft the Affordable Care Act, which created free preventative health care for women.

“Senator Barb is inspirational. Her tenacity and dedication to improving the lives of every American are worthy of this great honor,” said Maryland Senator Ben Cardin.

A Highlandtown native and daughter of local grocery store owners, Mikulski originally worked as a community organizer and social worker. She was elected to the House of Representatives in 1976 and became the first woman elected to the United States Senate from Maryland in 1986.

She is currently serving on the Select Committee on Intelligence and the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee.

In March, Mikulski announced she will retire in 2017 at the end of her 5th term.

“Growing up in East Baltimore was growing up in an urban village where people lived, worked, shopped and worshiped. But it’s not about what we did, it’s what we believed,” stated Mikulski. “To the people of Maryland — I thank you. You’ve honored me with your confidence and trust. I’ve tried to

live up to it and will continue to do that every day. I pledge, as always, that I will take the values I learned living here in East Baltimore and work as hard as ever, dedicated to you and dedicated to the nation.”

Seventeen people were given medals. Other people honored included director Steven Spielberg, singer Barbra Streisand, Shirley Chisholm who was the first African-American woman elected to Congress, and the late baseball legend, Lawrence “Yogi” Berra.

The Medal of Freedom is the country’s highest civilian honor.

“From public servants who helped us meet defining challenges of our time to artists who expanded our imaginations, from leaders who have made our union more perfect to athletes who have inspired millions of fans, these men and women have enriched our lives and helped define our shared experience as Americans,” said Obama during the ceremony. “They represent what is the best in us.”

“Humbled & honored to be recognized today at White House by @POTUS w Presidential Medal of Freedom,” tweeted Mikulski.
