Hogan adds funding for education, drug treatments in state budget

by GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

On Thursday, March 10, Governor Larry Hogan announced additional funding proposals that would allocate more money to education and drug treatment.

All-in-all, $77 million of supplemental funding was proposed.

A one-time payment of $13.8 million will be used towards K-12 education funding for school systems with economic loss due to declining student enrollment. $12.7 million of that total will go directly to Baltimore City schools. The remaining will be allocated to school systems in Calvert County.

Hogan also addressed the state’s heroin and opioid addiction problems. $3 million will go towards introducing drug addiction treatment programs into prisons. The money will also go towards reducing drug-related crime and reducing recidivism rates.

$13 million was committed to the Department of Human Resources for a Shared Human Services Platform to “replace outdated, cumbersome, and inefficient mainframe computer systems.”

Another $46.2 million will go towards building renovations at Coppin State University and University of Maryland Eastern Shore. $32 million will be funneled into the biomedical sciences and engineering building at the Universities at Shady Grove in Montgomery County and $4.7 million will build a student services facility at Morgan State University.

“Education has and always will be a top priority for our administration, and moving forward with these important projects at Maryland universities will benefit college students for decades,” said Hogan. “With this supplemental submitted and a number of critical issues and priorities addressed, we look forward to seeing the budget pass smoothly through the Senate and House over the final weeks of session.”

In January, Hogan pitched the full budget, a $42 billion plan, which is expected to be approved by the Senate Budget and Taxation Committee. However, Hogan received criticism from Maryland democrats. Opponents said he, and his budget, was ignoring the needs of Baltimore City youth and favoring Baltimore County residents with his proposals.

The tipping point of this feud appeared to be when Hogan requested $480 million to build a new jail, which would delay renovations to Baltimore City schools and colleges, such as Morgan State.

“There are assaults going on [in] our black communities across the state. We are not going to take it anymore. We know what’s going on, and we are going to retaliate,” said Delegate Curt Anderson, Baltimore Democrat du ring a news con ference in February, following Hogan’s proposed jail.

Hogan later rescinded the request, saying that there wasn’t any support for the hail in the General Assembly.

The newly announced proposals are likely a response to the Democratic legislators’ previous oppositions and has been met with support by both parties.

“I’m very excited and pleased to see the commitment that Gov. Hogan has made in the city and city schools,” said Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake.

“Clear proof that common ground is always possible with good communication,” said Senator Bill Ferguson

The Hogan administration said that at least $58 million of the cost would come from savings due to fewer Marylanders enrolling in Medicare.

With these additions, Maryland is expected to end the year with a general fund balance of $303 million.

Hogan gave the city’s education another boost with the launch of “Governor’s Young Readers”, a free book-delivery program for children up to five years old.

The books will arrive weekly and be hand-chosen by experts, teachers, and professionals in the early education and child development fields.

The Governor’s office is working with Family League of Baltimore, a non-profit focused on empowering families and providing opportunities to residents.

“The Young Readers initiative is a terrific way to put brand-new books into the hands of thousands of young readers throughout Baltimore and encourage parents, grandparents, and others to read aloud to even the youngest children,” said Jonathon Rondeau, the president and CEO of Family League of Baltimore.

“Books are incredibly important building blocks in a child’s education, and my hope is that this program will foster a love of reading and learning, and help put children on a path for lifelong success,” said Hogan.

For more information on the “Governor’s Young Readers”, visit www.bmoregeta book.org.

Ekiben’s new store provides Asian fusion lunch on-the-go

by GIANNA DECARLO [email protected]

Ekibens are complete boxed meals in Japan that are typically served at bus and train stations. These convenient lunch boxes were the inspiration behind the aptly named Ekiben food cart, which is run by three college friends with a knack for Asian fusion and flavors.

The Ekiben food cart was a favorite at the Fell’s Point Farmer’s Market on Saturday mornings, so much so that they are expanding to a storefront at 1622 Eastern Ave.

“It got to the point where people would recognize us and we saw that people were telling their friends about us and that’s when we realized we really had something,” said Nikhil Yesupriya, one of Ekiben’s founders and owners.

“We already have a customer base there and a good following, the residents already know us,” he said about opening in Fell’s.

These customers flocked to Ekiben’s famous rice bowls, which can be topped with everything from braised tofu to locally made kimchi and slaws to charred spare ribs.

They also serve a variety of bao, a Chinese dish consisting of steamed buns filled with lamb and chicken meatballs, pork vindaloo, sauteed mushrooms, and a constantly changing list of other good stuff.

Yesupriya, along with the other owners Steve Chu and Ephrem Abebe, met while at UMBC for undergrad. They knew they worked well as a team and had always known they wanted to enter the food business together. Yesupriya recalls holding dinner parties in their dorm after classes where they would have their friends taste-test recipes.

Chu had the concept for Asian fusion and the food cart became a reality in the summer of 2014.

“We started with a food cart because we were broke college graduates when it started,” Yesupriya said with a laugh. “But it ended up working out because we were able to test things out on a smaller scale at the market and get to know the customers and what they wanted from us.”

While the jump from a one-day-a-week food cart to a fully operating storefront will be a massive change for them, Yesupriya said they are ready for the challenge. The extra space will also give them the ability to expand their menu with new items, such as fried foods or noodle dishes.

The store’s menu will, just like the food cart’s, be shaped by the customers. As they did more events, such as Artscape and Emporiyum, Yesupriya said people learned that they could come to them with suggestions.

These ideas will continue to shape what Ekiben will serve and Yesupriya welcomes any feedback.

Ekiben is expected to open by the end of the week.

“We’re super excited. We’re getting so many messages from our customers about how pumped they are and asking when we’re finally going to open. It’s easy to forget how big its gotten, but it’s great that people know about us and are as excited about it as we are.”

BALTIMORE GUIDE 7WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 2016

All-day BREAKFAST rules the roostWhen Farmstead Grille in Canton Crossing closed, a

phoenix rose in its ashes.Well, technically, it was a rooster. An iron one, at that.Iron Rooster, which opened in November of last year at 3721

Boston St., immediately interested residents with its all day breakfast and unique, Southern-inspired menu.

The first Iron Rooster opened in Annapolis in 2014 and had amassed a following. With this success, owner Kyle Algaze decided to expand, replacing navel ships with Natty Boh.

“Annapolis is a destination city. People can go there for a day trip or for a weekend. But Baltimore is this very big city that has these little pockets of neighborhoods and that’s what interested me,” he said.

In fact, Canton was his first choice for the first Iron Rooster location. He had eyed a spot in the Gunther building before deciding that Annapolis was a better fit at the time.

However, when the spacious building that once housed Farmstead Grille was up for grabs, he said he had to take it.

Iron Rooster’s menu was crafted to be something that is familiar, but not overdone.

Everybody in Baltimore does crab, said Algaze who was reluctant to even put a crab dish on the menu. He wanted to create something new with the Maryland staple and thus, the “Cakes On Cakes” was born.

Instead of a simple crab cake, the Cakes is a leaning tower with a crab cake perched on a pile of cornmeal pancakes and a stack of fried green tomatoes.

“That has always been the style of food that I wanted us to serve. It was always going to be our own take on a food item.”

As for the all day breakfast, he said that was a given. He wanted people to see staples like pancakes or French toast on the menu and automatically feel comfortable.

“I think breakfast for some people is a meal that they can eat all day. I think the diners of old played into that. For some reason, ‘diner’ became a sort of dirty word. So, I wanted to us to have a different take on that, which is doing really good food, doing it all hours of the day, and that it’s approachable.”

From a variety of eggs Benedicts to omelets to shrimp and grits to a beef brisket breakfast burrito, the breakfast menu aims to cultivate those classic flavors that people are familiar with, but with Algaze’s own creative culinary twist.

“This allowed us to separate ourselves from what everybody else was doing. At the same time, you have to be in the mood for a specific food type. If I said to you, ‘let’s go get Mexican’, you may say ‘I had Mexican yesterday.’ But if I asked you if you wanted to get breakfast, you’d never say ‘I had breakfast’ yesterday.’”

And yes, you can’t mention Iron Rooster without saying ‘housemade pop tarts’ in the same breath.

A customer favorite, the pop tarts are made with a flaky crust and a gooey inside filled with natural ingredients in flavors such as cookies and cream, mixed berry, and drunken apple.

They aren’t the thin crumbly pastries you find in the silver foil.

“I love delivering the pop tarts to tables because you put it down and people are so happy and shocked. It becomes this meal, this thing to talk about,” said Algaze.

For dinner, the menu is just as diverse with items such as raspberry and soy glazed salmon, meatloaf with poached eggs, and even a supper Benedict with filet mignon.

“The whole mode of the restaurant should be that you’ve got to come here 3, 4, 5, times to really get the feeling of all we offer. When you look at the menu, you should be thinking

BY GIANNA DECARLO

Iron Rooster also sells unique cocktails as well as breakfast specialties like the shrimp ‘n grits with poached eggs. | Photos by Gianna DeCarlo

about what you’re going to order the next time you come in.”Algaze teased that they’re working on a new menu that will

be unveiled by the end of the month. He hinted new menu items may include a biscuit bread bowl filled with beer cheese soup and dips and pop tart bites.

“It should always be fresh and exciting. You can’t get complacent.”

Algaze said that Iron Rooster thrives on social media and word-of-mouth. Last week, Iron Rooter got a shout out on NBC’s TODAY Show when the hosts tried a Cakes on Cakes for National Crabmeat Day. However, Algaze said a recommendation on Canton Neighbors or a good Yelp! review means the most to him.

“The Today show is great, but I’d rather have 100 people post on Instagram about us or have somebody tell their friend about us,” he said.

Algaze has been working in the restaurant industry since he was 17 years old. A Florida native, he said he loves the fast-paced, constantly changing environment. Every day he equally looks forward to meeting new customers and welcoming back the old.

He’s a self-confessed “control freak” which he believes means he was meant to work in the restaurant business where the details mean everything. He credits an attentive and passionate staff and a just as enthusiastic customer base on Iron Rooster’s success.

“This doesn’t go any further than an idea in my head if it wasn’t for everyone else that’s been associated with this and that’s been making this all work.”

DISTRICT 1 BA LT IMORE C IT Y COUNCIL

Candidate Profi les

As the Southeast grows economically and in population, how will you work to balance the needs and wants of developers with the needs and wants of the residents?

Southeast Baltimore is the fastest growing part of our City, which presents opportunities and challenges. Development should be a continuing process aimed at ensuring our communities are livable for new and long-time residents. I believe in progress that preserves the character of our neighborhoods, and as we grow and attract more families, we have to make the preservation of the historical character and cultural diversity of our District the first value in our development. This means

we must help long-time residents who feel squeezed out by development, maintain the green space we have, fund local transportation improvements, and ensure that local hiring practices are put in place so Baltimore residents have access to jobs.

Every single candidate has expressed concerns and proposed plans for hot button issues like transportation and education, but what is another key issue that is important to you? Why is it important to you?

I am very concerned about the skyrocketing costs of water service in Baltimore. Our water bills have gone up consistently over the past few years, and the costs will likely rise more as aging infrastructure is replaced. We need to upgrade our system, but the high cost of Baltimore City water – compared to our neighboring counties – is reducing our quality of life and squeezing residents out of the City, especially seniors. The Council has to take an active oversight role over the Department of Public Works to make sure maintenance dollars are well spent, no one is being overcharged, and billing is flexible for the many Baltimoreans and First District residents.Robberies and burglaries remain a concern for the district. What would you do to combat this?

Property crimes are one of the leading reasons residents choose to leave the City. I organize my neighborhood’s Citizens on Patrol walks and sit on the Southeast Police Community Relations Council. From this experience, I believe the most important thing the City Council can do to improve public safety is to ensure the transition to the community policing model works. Community policing is about building trust between communities and the police in order to improve information-sharing and establish basic public order. We also need to make sure that the Baltimore Police Department (BPD) is equipped to do their job. Baltimore is one of the last remaining cities of its size where

police cars are not equipped with computers. This means when a robbery occurs, the police have to handwrite everything and then retype it at the station. This is unacceptable. As your Councilman, I will work to put computers in every police vehicle. Finally, the City Council must be a place of oversight for the BPD and must address the long-term, structural issues facing our city – from poverty, to transportation, to housing, to education – that contribute to the root causes of crime.

What sets you apart from the other candidates?

I am running to get things done for the people of the First District and make our City government more functional for all of Baltimore. Now more than ever, the residents of the First District deserve a councilmember that will give this job the time, focus, and attention it deserves. I am committed to being a full-time Councilman, and I will take all my skills and experience as an attorney and former Army officer to bring a practical, no-nonsense approach to City government. I will serve the citizens of the First District the way I served my soldiers and commanders in the Army: I will put the mission first. When a soldier asked me for help or a commander gave me an order, I didn’t worry about who got the credit or the blame, or how the politics looked; I just got it done. I found out the information I needed, I brought together the people who needed to know it, and together we came up with solutions to advance the mission. That’s what I promise to do for you – to work every day to improve our lives in this District and our City.

As the Southeast grows economically and in population, how will you work to balance the needs and wants of developers with the needs and wants of the residents?

The District needs a comprehensive development plan that considers population increases, traffic, and environmental impacts. As a council member, I would work to balance the concerns of the community with that of investment into our City from developers.

Every single candidate has expressed concerns and proposed plans for hot button issues like transportation and education, but what is another key issue that is important to you? Why is it important to you?

I believe in lowering taxes as a mechanism to stimulate and maintain home ownership. I also believe government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn. Baltimore City has the highest property taxes in the State of Maryland. Coupled with highest levels of crime and some of the lowest performing public schools; it’s no wonder that hardworking men and women leave the City or worse- decide against moving here. In order to be competitive with surrounding jurisdictions, Baltimore City must reduce the property tax. Property taxes at their current rate discourage investment in our city. It becomes more difficult for working-class families to retain their home. Home-ownership is the pathway to the middle class and the housing crisis has contributed to lower property values with a cyclical effect on economic opportunity and investment in our neighborhoods. To address this, and as a City Councilmember, I would advocate for a 50% reduction in property taxes implemented gradually over several years and make changes to our current tax policies. All property owners, including nonprofit groups, would pay their share of taxes. Using models found in the City of Alexandria, and the Counties of Arlington and Loudon; this policy would limit or restrict the property tax exemption of existing or new nonprofit groups and could offset reductions in revenues due to a decrease in owner-occupied property taxes. Robberies and burglaries remain a concern for the district. What would

you do to combat this? As the councilmember for the 1st District, I

will support our men and women in blue to equip them with the resources they need to combat violent crime. This is why I support the expansion of body cameras and community policing programs. Only by working together, can we turn our city around and let criminals know that the days of lawlessness are over.

I also support more community-oriented policing. Creating a task-force to implement citizens advisory council complaints and allegations. Being a law enforcement official is a difficult job. I support competitive compensation for Baltimore police officers, increased resources for parks and public space, blight removal and streetlight repair and expanded recreation and school hours.

What sets you apart from the other candidates?

My professional experience and formal education has prepared me to serve as a member of the Baltimore City Council. With an undergraduate degree in political science and a masters in public policy, I’ve learned theories and best practices in policy creation as well as and public administration. Moreover, I’ve served in leadership roles managing public agencies including the Baltimore Housing, Board of Liquor Licence Commissioners, and currently with the Department of Social Services. My career has provided a portfolio of experience in housing, human services, community development, and governmental affairs.

But it is my background as a Baltimore city native that has expanded my experiential learning and education into a greater understanding of the needs of this city. Similar to one-thirds of our City’s population, I personally experienced poverty. As a single mother, I raised my children in this city and know intimately the conditions of our failing school system and gaps in services for after-school activities. When I became a mother at a young age, I knew I had a choice to make and I chose to build a future that would make my family proud. I decided I alone was responsible for my future and dedicated myself to improving my circumstances. I began my career in public service at the age of 18 as a temporary-clerk for the District Court of Maryland. I continued my service, working full-time while earning my degrees and raising my children.

Through hard work and opportunity, I have been able to achieve the American dream. I have held positions in the private, public and nonprofit sectors focused primarily on economic and community development. Working with the private sector, I have revitalized blighted communities and worked with developers and citizens to balance and focus strategic investments to spearhead economic growth. I am excited about this race and know that accountability, transparency and opportunity are not just catch-phrases or buzzwords but are testaments to my life and what our city can achieve together, our best days lie ahead.

BALTIMORE GUIDE 11WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 2016

Have you ever wondered why some places offer surgeries, such as spay or neuter, for under $100 and other places you feel like you’re paying an arm and a leg? There are several reasons why there is such a difference in pricing which is important to understand when choosing where to have the procedure for your pet.

Low cost clinics are able to offer extremely affordable prices compared to full service hospitals. It does not mean low cost provides substandard care and it doesn’t mean full service are over charging to profit. Understanding the differences between the two can help put in perspective why pricing is so different. They might be performing the “same” surgery, but the overall process and procedures are not the same.

Low cost clinics exist to help keep the pet population under control by offering services to spay and neuter at affordable pricing. They are a great option for many scenarios like foster pets, shelter animals, the financially distressed, etc.

One of the main differences between low cost and full service is pre-anesthetic bloodwork. Pre-anesthetic bloodwork is done prior to surgery to check liver and kidney values because these organs process the anesthesia. The bloodwork can also reveal underlying medical issues that may cause complications during surgery. Unlike full service, low cost clinics don’t typically require this bloodwork because it’s one way to cut down costs and they are usually working on young healthy pets. These patients don’t usually have underlying issues but there are always exceptions. Without bloodwork, the risks of surgery and post-op increase due to the vet staff being unaware of any possible health threats.

Full service hospitals typically place IV (intravenous) catheters in order to administer fluids throughout the surgery. Fluids not only assist with blood pressure stability but it also helps deliver blood flow to organs. When there are blood pressure issues during surgery, it causes a decreased blood flow to vital organs causing them to possibly fail which may not be seen for days after the surgery. In low cost clinics, they do not typically use IV catheters and fluids. This is another factor that changes the price of the procedure.

There are several devices that are used in full service surgeries that constantly monitor CO2 levels, blood pressure, body temperature, and the heart. All of which are important to be

within normal limits while under anesthesia. Low cost clinics do not routinely monitor these vitals, not because they don’t value your pet’s health, but there are several costs involved. There are costs to having these devices and trained/certified staff present that are able to operate them and manage any complications that may arise from abnormal vitals.

Low cost clinics perform numerous surgeries a day, sometimes as many as 50. Typically these clinics operate under a very limited staff as many of the vets and staff work at other hospitals too. When it comes to surgeries, the recovery time following the surgery is when the pet is most at risk, which applies to any patient in any hospital. In a full service hospital there is a staff member monitoring the pet at all times in case of any complications while recovering from anesthesia. With the high volume of surgeries and the limited staff in a low cost clinic, there is not only multitasking but there is not someone available to sit with every patient from start to finish. So if any difficulty arises, it could go unnoticed for a short period of time. Of course this is never intentional, it strictly is because of the limited staff and more staff members mean more costs in order to pay their employees.

There are some cases where low cost clinics are not the best option and they will probably tell you that themselves. Pets that are senior, brachycephalic (flat/smooshed face), obese, in heat, pregnant, aggressive, or a history of medical issues are considered high risk patients and would benefit better from a full service hospital. Low cost clinics are not typically set up for emergency situations which is why high risk patients are not recommended.

A majority of the time pets recover great with no complications, but it’s always important to understand why the costs are different and what services are offered. This applies to full service hospitals as well, never assume the services your pet is receiving for the higher cost. Always ask. Complications can’t be foreseen regardless of the care, effort, and preparation because there are risks no matter where you choose to have your pet’s surgery. The risks simply increase when these points discussed are unknown.

Low cost clinics are great. Full service hospitals are great. But understanding your pet’s health and medical services available is even better!

Rawlings-Blake is failing Baltimore’s immigrant population.

Representatives for the Rawlings-Blake administration denied any claims of discrimination, saying that the bars were raided due to consistent health department regulations, unsanitary conditions, and expired licenses.

A statement from the Baltimore City Health Department said that La Rumba was not singled out and that the inspectors observed violations would shut down any food serve facility.

“The inspection of La Rumba revealed rodent and roach infestations, operation without a permit (expired), no hot water in the restroom and general unsanitary conditions. Since the issues could not be immediately corrected, closure was ordered,” read the statement.

Other businesses that said they were affected by these tactics were the now-closed Punta G Bar at 123 N. Clinton St. which had a history of noise violations and hosting live entertainment without a license, and The Latin Palace at 509 S. Broadway.

The Latin Palace has had several run-ins with the Liquor Board for illegal live entertainment and noise complaints from neighbors.

In June of 2015, The Latin Palace faced a 3-week closure after they were found guilty of several violations.

Following the verdict, Jose “Enrique” Ribadeneira, the owner of The Latin Palace, had said “The Hispanic community is left out. We’re not represented or part of the community.”

“I’m outraged at how Baltimore City has treated Hispanic merchants. Rather than working with them to identify and abate problems when such problems are first discovered, the city’s response is to shutter such businesses on Friday evenings during their most lucrative periods of operations. For a city that has experienced a net loss of businesses and population, it needs to encourage Latinos to live and work here,” said Miguel Palmeiro, Esq., the attorney for the Hispanic Business Association.

“The Hispanic Business Association calls on the Mayor to stop Police, Fire Marshall, and Health officials from draconian and excessive use of force and harassment tactics, which is destroying our vibrant and diverse Hispanic community. They should instead welcome our hard working, tax paying, Hispanic business owners and families—not drive them out of Baltimore.”

The group said they would be pursuing

Another Hispanic-owned business facing difficulties is Santa Clara Bar & Restaurant at 529 S. Bond St., which was the site of a triple shooting on Saturday, February 6 that left one victim dead.

The owners of Santa Clara faced the liquor board on Thursday, March 3 for violations of illegal conduct and endangering public welfare stemming from the shooting.

Mel Kodenski, who represented Santa Clara, said that there wasn’t any way the bar’s owners could have prevented the shooting or known it was going to happen.

“Apparently it was an isolated incident where they targeted these people and then walked out,” said Kodenski.

“The only way he could have stopped this is if he had metal detectors at the front door and had a guard there,” said Commissioner Doug Trotter, who thought the public endangerment charge should be dropped.

Commissioner Harvey E. Jones said that Santa Clara was guilty and should pay a $500 fine.

“The evidence is there, it’s irresponsible,” he said.

Trotter and Jones eventually compromised

and Santa Clara was fined $250 to be paid in 30 days.

According to testimony from Officer Brad Pittan, security footage showed the three suspects sitting at the bar before one exited the building and returned with a bat. The three men then took out their guns and shot the victim, who was also at the bar, point-blank.

The eighteen-year-old victim died after being shot in the head. One of the suspects arrested was also underage, although there wasn’t any mention of that at the hearing.

Two other victims were injured in the shooting.

BALTIMORE GUIDE 19WEDNESDAY, MARCH 16, 2016

While there are some guys struggling a bit out of the gate, it’s nothing to be alarmed about just yet as players use spring training to focus on specific aspects of their game, so it’s not time to start worrying just yet.

Actually there is one player you might want to worry about a little bit, and that is Matt Wieters. Wieters underwent Tommy John surgery during the 2014 season and missed quite a bit of time due to that last season as he tried recovering from it. During the O’s Saturday afternoon game against the Minnesota Twins, Wieters was removed in the first inning due to soreness in his elbow.

Obviously the Orioles will be extra careful with his elbow but it is still concerning to see him come out of a game with any level of an injury. Hopefully it is just some soreness and stiffness and he will be ready for the start of the regular season.

While the Baltimore Orioles are not exactly off to a great start, posting a record of 1-11 with two ties as of March 13th, there are some players who are having a good spring.

Jonathan Schoop is one of those players. So far Schoop has played in nine games and is batting .400 over that span. Schoop has hit one home run and driven in four runs so far. Mark Trumbo has been off to a good start also, batting .333 over eight games with a home run and 3 RBI.

Kevin Gausman has only pitched once so far but looked good, throwing two scoreless innings where he struck out three batters and allowing only one hit. Oliver Drake has been pitching well also, throwing five scoreless innings and striking out five batters.

The newly acquired Pedro Alvarez has made an impression in his first taste of action as an Oriole, going 1 for 3 with a double and a run batted in.

While there are some O’s having a good spring, there are a few that are taking a little extra time to shake off the cobwebs….

Nolan Reimold has gotten off to a slow start as he is just batting .136 over his first seven games. Chris Davis is also starting off a bit slowly, batting .167 in his first seven games.

Miguel Gonzalez has had a super rough spring, surrendering 14 earned runs in three starts, giving him an ERA of 22.24. Both Ubaldo Jimenez and Mike Wright have pitched in three starts and both have an ERA of 9.45.
