they're essentially like the kidneys of the chesapeake bay.than just a happy hour delicacy. these are water—filtering powerhouses, removing the pollution from our cities and the excess fertiliser that escapes from ourfarms. in fact, a single adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons — or nearly 200 litres — of water per day. oysters help to filter out sediments and pollutants that jeopardise water quality. they create habitat for about 300 different species. so in a way they're like the coral reefs of the chesapeake bay. the chesapeake was once teeming with oysters, but after decades of overharvesting the population was nearly wiped out, reaching about i% of historic levels. the resource almost slipped between our fingers forever. by the time we got to the �*90s, oysters were almost not even a blip on the on the radar, in terms of the bushels being landed or harvested and brought back to the dock. now the chesapeake bay foundation is part of an effort to replant 10 billion oysters by the year 2025. in virginia today, at low tide, you would see

from working with states to restore the chesapeake bay. for context in 1985, the states in the chesapeake bay region recognized the need to address pollutants in the bay and through their own initiative came together to conduct cleanup iforts. these state driven efforts were largely successful. water quality improved almost 50% from 1985 until 2010. however, in 2010, the e.p.a. seized the states' authority to determine their own method of compliance and threatened to take over the water quality plans if the states failed to comply. i'm sorry, states are not inferior agents to the federal government. states are not servants to the federal government. this 2010 power grab known as the chesapeake bay tmdl directly contradicts the intent of the clean water act. directly contradicts it. the clean water act clearly acknowledges state authority in water quality and requires cooperation, cooperation, not coercion between the states and federal government. now these coercive methods have been try tried and have failed. water quality has not improve

i mean, the colony was not not the tidewater, chesapeake, where it was like, okay, tacco, it about the fur trade primarily. so even at aolony scale, plans for big agricultural pursuits 's in the records that i have. but yeah people expecteto be able to grow crops that were more suited. a warmer climate then on the other hand, there's plenty of records of peoe talking about how great their are and there's plenty of this and that i picked some peaches in octobero it's difficult to distinguish between like what's and what. s i mean especially since you referenced adriavan der duc's book. you know, obviously he's for those who don't know, he's writing in the 1650s because h specifically wants to get people to to the nethernds. so there's no incentive denigrate the climate or e agricultural possibility of new netherland so that weefinitely do have to take those sources with with a grn of salt to some extent, and the opposite as. well, in 1629 and then again in 16, the west company wrote to the ste's general to complain how horrible it was, how cold is, and it's unprofitable and, it's snowy

example, along the chesapeake bay coast of virginia, african americans who have been enslaved and who were seeking freedom frequently sought cover and start protection with u.s. naval vessels. so, from the beginning of the conflict, commanders of u.s. naval vessels had to contend with men who were presenting themselves as volunteers for service in the united states navy. within a matter of months, the naval service began accepting these men into service. you may be familiar with the term contraband in reference to african americans who had been enslaved and who were becoming free during the course of the civil war. this term originated at hampton, virginia when general butler, as you may remember referred to three men -- freeman who had run away from slavery as contraband of war and use that as an excuse to give them federal protection. the secretary of the navy advised naval commanders they could use similar logic to take the men who were fleeing from slavery on board the vessels and put them to work. and wouldn't you know, they rated the men under the term contraband which had not e

we're fighting chesapeake. we've been with you for about an hour and that's the faith going to guess it drew. how do you handle it psychologically? no wonder, but it looks like we've got to use today. it's. we always have a spots are watching for the enemy, the. when we hear them, we rush to call the if we can, we try to shoot them down of the no one but on paper. so it just impacted another with the, the very close to us for to ride the bus you soon. so just use it. it appears that it's nearby we'll perhaps with show top, increasingly ukraine has turned to suicide rooms. they are not kind of fear. moves shots, the job nice. and when they pause, these must be how it. so let's use no said diluted. psalm $116.00 perfectly fits our artillery regiments on the wicked . she will rain fire recalls and burning soul for a scorching winds. will be there, lots god willing and for the glory of russia. good.

he flees williamsburg gets on a man of war british man of war in chesapeake bay and he stole to criticize his suffering slings and arrows of outraous pamphlets and he's very unhappy. he's like, well, you know, i'm not going to i'm not going to be able to indict these these these newspaper publishers. but he has another idea. one morning he sends a dozen of his soldis on a boat off the man of war into into norfolk. and they go to the of the norfolk intelligence and they take the printing pressnd they take it out to thean of war. not only do they shut down the norfolk paper, very critical of him, b then they start publishing all kinds o propaganda in favor that of the king. so that's the desperation that theyad. how could they stop the criticism? it got to the point where the only way to stop it was to take thisind of radical action. no there's coming out of this period, i have to quote samuel adams, i think was, you know, maybe saidt best. listen tthis quote, there is nothing so terrible to tyrants a free press. there's noing so terrible to tyrants as a free press. you can see that today,

thadministration of president james was, of course, preoccupied with fighting the british in canada, new york, chesapeake bay, even keeping washington, d.c., inmerican hands and really had little time or attention to pay to events in the in the south. and so they much turned over the conduct of the war tthe state of georgia, the state of tennessee, and the mississippi territory, as small as it was, and to their militias and volunteers. two two of the two of the more colorful and important characters to emerge on the american side in the greek war are, david crockett and sam houston both were young men at the time, and both saw elephant, so to speak, in the greek war. so their first experience in combat combat, david crockett, he joined up when andrew jackson ain was commander of tennessee militia after the mims massacre, jackn became, the principal commder of the tennessee forces crockett, signed up a as a volunteer and served in jackson's first campaigns against the red sticks that didn't didn't go particularly well for jackson and crockett left remarkably remarkably colorful journal a poignant journal

however, in the chesapeake, which makes this book very interesting that you're about african-americans who were bred here. yes. and that that's where most of at least to almost and a half generations. so motion that you talk about going to from baltimore to new orleans makes for an interesting dynamic in the sense from there they were kind of throughout america. what i do find interesting that you keep speaking in reference to kind of like whole families when in fact during the time of breeding, it wasn't quite that way. and the other element that i coming from you is fact that there seems to be some complicity with regard to the federal government and that they know more than what they are revealing. do people like myself and it would seem to me, hopefully based on your research that somehow we could get better records with to the chattel because they did do good recognition on things that they perceive even to be mercantile. yes. well those those are there's all great points. i mean the reason the feds kept these manifests of the domestic slave trade was essentially enforcing that la

actually had pulled up anchor and were sailing away just as their new governor is coming up the chesapeake bay forces them to turn around. it could have gone the way o roanoke. right. and plymouth almost goes t way of run up. but they you know, they managed to bring in their first harvest, including indian corn. right. which native people have taught them how to grow. sot looks like they're going to survive for longer than they had anticipated. and they decide it's time to take a break. pause. let our hair down a little bit right. did they dance? oh, that's a good question. i. i know, i know there are games of skill and strength, you know, so their target practice is wrestling. okay. you know, you don't want to offe god with, you know, provocative dancing. you know, i don't know what the puritans did. yeah, you'll have to ask somebody about that. someone else about that,ou know. but yeah. so they're having a feast and then all of a sudden usher mcquinn massasoit, the wampanoag leader shows up with 90 men. okay, well, you know, there's only about 50 english colonies at this point, so and yo

besides that, no other incidents were reported of the main se, houses that are 52nd flights of a chesapeake. h go with a chelsea and manchester city and the primary sequences we up with 5 minutes today . but then a 96 minute penalty from former cities play a co comma floats house to never as it finished. so to see, say top of the table, a point to head of living in spain to goes from the windows key, so thoughtfully to come from the highest of us to one and the amount of 6 games with alsco participate strike a while. so but in the long you get table for points behind need is your right now . and intent is made that joke of which we'll finish the as well. number one for a record extending a time. the sub in be done months hold the rena. it is opening matches, the atp well til finals to, and she'll call us on cross cons, overtake him in the rankings before the end of the season. there's all the sports headlines. you can get more on algebra. com and on all social media channels. all right, returning now to the war on guys i and an ice cream shop. in con eunice, in southern gaza is bringing chi
