PORT TOWNSEND — An influx of ships and equipment to Naval Magazine Indian Island will begin in mid-May in advance of the June 7-10 Cascadia Rising 2016 Exercise, Navy officials said Wednesday. The public will see several large container ships docked around Indian Island, civilian consultant Chris Cervantes told Port Townsend, Jefferson County and Port of Port Townsend officials at the meeting. Small boats and tactical vehicles will be unloaded and used; the area will be restricted. “We will need to keep people out of there because these operations are inherently dangerous,” Cervantes said. Noting that crabbing and fishing are popular in the month of June around Indian Island, Jim Pivarnik, Port of Port Townsend deputy director, said it is important to let people know what they can expect.

Allen Logging was the last production softwood mill west of Port Angeles. Gerry Lane, president of the company, said last June that the closure was prompted by foreign competition for domestic private timber, regulations on harvesting trees from state and federal lands, a chancy supply of such wood and the low prices of foreign logs.

Field to star in first film in two decades IT SOUNDS LIKE a misprint, but it’s not: Sally Field has headlined just one movie in the past two decades. The reasons why are many. Hollywood doesn’t exactly churn out good parts Field for middleaged or older actresses, even for beloved two-time Oscar winners. Field has also been drawn elsewhere, back to television, where she got her start in the 1960s on “Gidget” and “The Flying Nun.” And then there’s the fact that Field isn’t much
inclined to play, as she says, “the traditional mother thing.” “I’m certainly at a point in my life where I don’t do anything that I don’t want to do,” Field said. “There are things that come to me, maybe the script is good but you don’t really need me in this movie to stand at the door and say, ‘Drive carefully.’ ” “Hello, My Name Is Doris” is a reminder of what the movies have been missing out on. In the film, directed and co-written by Michael Showalter, Field stars as a spinsterish, daydreaming New York accountant who, after her mother dies, cautiously begins seeking out new experiences and pursuing — comically, awkwardly, sweetly — a much younger man: an art director at her Manhattan office played by Max Greenfield. The film, which opens Friday, is a blend of tones —
broadly funny, dramatically tender — and populated by veteran performers like Tyne Daly, Stephen Root and Peter Gallagher.
Olympian reality Olympic all-around champion Gabby Douglas is inviting the world along for the ride in her quest for history. Douglas and her family will star in the upcoming docu-series “Douglas Family Gold,” which chronicles the 20-year-old’s bid to become the first woman in nearly 50 years to repeat as the Olympic all-around gold medalist. The series debuts May 25 on the Oxygen Network, which is owned by NBC Universal. The show will center on Douglas, her mother Natalie Hawkins, sisters Arielle Hawkins and Joyelle Douglas, brother Johnathan Douglas and grandmother Carolyn Ford.

GEORGE MARTIN, 90, the Beatles’ urbane producer who quietly guided the band’s swift, historic transformation from rowdy club act to musical and cultural revolutionaries, has died, his management said Wednesday. Too modest to claim the title of the fifth Beatle, the tall, elegant Londoner produced some of the most popular and influential albums of modern times — “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” “Revolver,” “Rubber Soul,” “Abbey Road” — elevating rock LPs to art forms: “concepts.” Mr. Martin won six Grammys and was inducted in 1999 into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Three years earlier, he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. Former Beatle Paul McCartney said Mr. Martin had been “a true gentleman and like a second father to me.” “If anyone earned the title of the fifth Beatle it was George,” McCartney said. “From the day that he gave the Beatles our first recording contract, to the last time I saw him, he was the most generous, intelligent and musical person I’ve ever had the pleasure to know.” Beatles drummer Ringo Starr tweeted earlier: “God bless George Martin peace and love to Judy and his family love Ringo and Barbara. George will be missed.” Mr. Martin both witnessed and enabled the extraordinary metamorphosis of the Beatles and of the 1960s. From a raw first album in 1962 that took just a day to make, to the monthslong production of “Sgt. Pepper,” the Beatles advanced rapidly as song-

writers and sonic explorers. They composed dozens of classics, from “She Mr. Martin Loves You” in 1996 to “Hey Jude,” and turned the studio into a wonderland of tape loops, multi-tracking, unpredictable tempos, unfathomable segues and kaleidoscopic montages. Never again would rock music be defined by twominute love songs or guitarbass-drums arrangements. Lyrically and musically, anything became possible. “Once we got beyond the bubblegum stage, the early recordings, and they wanted to do something more adventurous, they were saying, ‘What can you give us?’ ” Mr. Martin told The Associated Press in 2002. “And I said, ‘I can give you anything you like.’ ” Besides the Beatles, Mr. Martin worked with Jeff Beck, Elton John, Celine Dion and on several solo albums by McCartney. In the 1960s, Mr. Martin produced hits by Cilla Black, Gerry and the Pacemakers, and Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas. And for 37 straight weeks in 1963 a Mr. Martin recording topped the British charts. Mr. Martin started pro-

ducing records for EMI’s Parlophone label in 1950, working on comedy recordings with Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan and others, Sharp said. He had his first No. 1 hit in 1961 with The Temperance Seven. But his legacy was defined by the Beatles, for the contributions he made, and for those he didn’t. When he took on the Liverpool group, Mr. Martin was very much in charge, choosing “Love Me Do” as their first single and initially confining the newly hired Ringo Starr to tambourine — a slight the drummer never quite got over. But during a time when the young were displacing the old, Mr. Martin too would be upstaged. Before the Beatles, producers such as Phil Spector and Berry Gordy controlled the recording process, choosing the arrangements and musicians; picking, and sometimes writing, the songs or claiming credit for them. The Beatles, led by the songwriting team of McCartney and John Lennon, became their own bosses, relying on Mr. Martin not for his vision, but for what he could do for theirs.

TODAY IS THURSDAY, March 10, the 70th day of 2016. There are 296 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: ■ On March 10, 1876, Alexander Graham Bell’s assistant, Thomas Watson, heard Bell say over his experimental telephone: “Mr. Watson — come here — I want to see you” from the next room of Bell’s Boston laboratory. On this date: ■ In 1864, President Abraham Lincoln assigned Ulysses S. Grant, who had just received his commission as lieutenant-general, to the command of the Armies of the United States. ■ In 1914, the Rokeby Venus,
a 17th-century painting by Diego Velazquez on display at the National Gallery in London, was slashed multiple times by Mary Richardson, who was protesting the arrest of fellow suffragist Emmeline Pankhurst. The painting was repaired. ■ In 1949, Nazi wartime broadcaster Mildred E. Gillars, also known as “Axis Sally,” was convicted in Washington D.C., of treason. She served 12 years in prison. ■ In 1969, James Earl Ray pleaded guilty in Memphis, Tenn., to assassinating civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. Ray later repudiated that plea, maintaining his innocence until
his death. ■ In 1980, Scarsdale Diet author Dr. Herman Tarnower was shot to death at his home in Purchase, N.Y. Tarnower’s former lover, Jean Harris, was convicted of his murder; she served nearly 12 years in prison before being released in January 1993. ■ In 1993, Dr. David Gunn was shot to death outside a Pensacola, Fla., abortion clinic. Shooter Michael Griffin is serving a life sentence. ■ Ten years ago: Officials confirmed that Tom Fox, an American who was among four Christian activists kidnapped in Iraq, had been found slain. ■ Five years ago: The House
Homeland Security Committee examined Muslim extremism in America during a hearing punctuated by tearful testimony and angry recriminations. Chairman Peter King, R-N.Y., accused U.S. Muslims of doing too little to help fight terror in America; Democrats warned of inflaming anti-Muslim sentiment. ■ One year ago: Breaking her silence in the face of a growing controversy over her use of a private email address and server, Hillary Rodham Clinton conceded that she should have used government email as secretary of state but insisted she had not violated any federal laws or Obama administration rules.

A3 Briefly: Nation Committee OKs Obama nominee for education WASHINGTON — A Senate committee on Wednesday approved President Barack Obama’s nomination of John B. King Jr. to be education secretary. The 16-6 vote in the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee sent the nomination of the acting secreKing tary to the full Senate. If confirmed, King would oversee the department as it puts in place a bipartisan education law passed by Congress and signed by Obama in December. The measure revamps the widely criticized No Child Left Behind Act and substantially limits the federal government’s role in public schools. King, who began his education career as a high school social studies teacher, was tapped by Obama late last year to succeed longtime Education Secretary Arne Duncan, who stepped down in December. The committee chairman, Sen. Lamar Alexander, supported the nomination.
Police catch suspect KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A man suspected of fatally shooting four people at his neighbor’s home in Kansas before killing another man about 170 miles away in rural Missouri was taken into custody early Wednesday morning after an
extensive manhunt, the Missouri State Highway Patrol said. Pablo Antonio SerranoVitorino was captured just after midnight Wednesday, patrol Lt. Paul Reinsch said. Reinsch said he had no other details, but another patrol official told The Kansas City Star that SerranoVitorino was found lying on a hill just north of Interstate 70 and that no shots were fired. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said in a statement that Serrano-Vitorino was a Mexican national who had been deported from the U.S. in April 2004 and illegally reentered “on an unknown date.” Serrano-Vitorino is accused of fatally shooting four men late Monday night at his neighbor’s home in Kansas City, Kans. He was also wanted in connection with the shooting death of 49-year-old Randy Nordman in Montgomery County, Mo.
Religious law mulled JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Missouri’s Republican-led Senate on Wednesday advanced a proposal to add greater religious protections to the state Constitution for some business owners and individuals opposed to gay marriage after Democrats stalled a vote for about 37 hours. The move marked an end to a stalemate emblematic of a national debate over balancing civil rights and religious liberties following last year’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling that legalized same-sex marriage. The proposed amendment to the Missouri Constitution would prohibit government penalties against those who cite “a sincere religious belief” while declining to provide goods or services of “expressional or artistic creation” for same-sex marriage ceremonies or celebrations.

Islamic State group’s weapons chief caught BY QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA AND SUSANNAH GEORGE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BAGHDAD — U.S. special forces captured the head of the Islamic State group’s unit trying to develop chemical weapons in a raid last month in northern Iraq, Iraqi and U.S. officials told The Associated Press, the first known major success of Washington’s more aggressive policy of pursuing IS militants on the ground.
New strategy The Obama administration launched the new strategy in December, deploying a commando force to Iraq that it said would be dedicated to capturing and killing Islamic State group leaders in clandestine operations, as well as generating intelligence leading to more raids.

lead, which is 15 parts per billion. The DEP has requested test results from previous years to be able to do a complete analysis. No building had more than four samples above the action level, the DEP said in a statement. The DEP confirmed lead has not been found in the city’s water supply. “In the vast majority of cases where lead is found in drinking water, it enters through the water delivery system itself when it leaches from either lead pipes, household fixtures containing
lead or lead solder,” the DEP said. Notices have been posted and bottled water and water coolers have been delivered to the buildings in Newark. Parents should have no concerns about their children’s water and food consumption at school, the DEP said, because drinking water alone is not typically associated with elevated blood lead levels. Lead in drinking water has drawn increased attention recently because of the water crisis in Flint, Mich.

THE U.S. SAID it has dispatched three B-2 stealth bombers on a training mission to the Asia-Pacific region amid growing tensions with North Korea. The deployment was announced Wednesday by U.S. Strategic Command, which is responsible for U.S. nuclear forces. B-2 bombers are capable of launching nuclear as well as conventional weapons. They are based at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri. Strategic Command said the bombers will conduct training with the Australian military during the deployment, which amounts to a show of force at a time of mounting tensions with North Korea.
VERMONT HAS BECOME the fifth state to require employers to provide paid sick leave to workers. Democratic Gov. Peter Shumlin signed the bill Wednesday. Supporters say about 60,000 Vermont workers do not have paid sick time. The law requires employers to provide a minimum of three paid days off a year for employees to use when they are sick or to care for a child or family member. Employers with more than five employees must provide the benefit next year while those with five or fewer have until 2018. The mandatory amount increases to five days in 2019.
A BRITISH JUDGE on Wednesday sentenced six men who stole cash, jewelry and gold worth $20 million from a vault in London’s diamond district to up to seven years in prison. The mostly elderly gang drilled through a concrete vault wall in the Hatton Garden diamond district in April 2015 and ransacked more than 70 safe-deposit boxes in a heist that has been described as the largest burglary in English legal history. Five of the men were sentenced at the Woolwich Crown Court to prison terms of six or seven years, while the sixth received a suspended sentence for his lesser role.

PA man’s 3 strikes life sentence upheld BY ROB OLLIKAINEN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — A Port Angeles man’s life sentence without the possibility of parole has been upheld by the state Court of Appeals, according to the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. Alvin Leslie Witherspoon, 42, of Port Angeles was convicted in April 2010 of second-degree robbery, residential burglary and witness tampering related to a Nov. 12, 2009, incident at a Clallam County home. The second-degree robbery conviction was Witherspoon’s third “strike” or “most serious offense” under the 1992 three
strikes sentencing law, Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney Mark Nichols said. Under the “Three Strikes, You’re Out” law, the sentence requires Witherspoon to remain in prison without possibility of early release for the rest of his life, Nichols said. Witherspoon’s previous strike convictions were for residential burglary with a deadly weapon enhancement and first-degree burglary in Snohomish County, Nichols said. Strike convictions include more than 40 felonies considered as most serious offenses. Witherspoon, then 36,

‘No discretion’
The court ruling affirmed an earlier state Court of Appeals decision in the case. The life sentence was upheld by the appeals court March 1 after Witherspoon filed a personal restraint petition, arguing ineffective defense council in a collateral attack, the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office said. Witherspoon remained Wednesday at the Monroe Correctional Complex in Monroe.
“I didn’t think you should go to prison the rest of your life and I don’t mind putting that on the record,” Verser told Witherspoon at the sentencing hearing as quoted by the state Supreme Court, “but I have no discretion at all.” ________ In a 5-4 ruling in July 2014, the state Supreme Reporter Rob Ollikainen can be Court upheld Witherspoon’s reached at 360-452-2345, ext. life sentence without the 56450, or at rollikainen@peninsula dailynews.com. possibility of parole.

PORT ANGELES — The percentage of developmentally disabled individuals employed in Clallam County is well above the national average, according to the county’s Health and Human Services Department. That is “despite the fact that we have a very high unemployment rate overall,” Timothy Bruce, Clallam County Health and Human Services planner, said earlier this month. In 2015, about 63 percent of people with developmental disabilities in Clallam County who sought work were able to find employment, Bruce said. “The national average is about 25 percent,” he said. “We are significantly above it [and] are one of the top couple of counties” statewide for employment rates. “We have been very fortunate,” Bruce said. “We have a very supportive community. We have very talented individuals that are working very hard and a lot of that comes because we are working very hard with the business leaders.” There are about 1,000 people with developmental

State paying unemployment to people in jail, audit says BY WALKER ORENSTEIN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Where To Go... Who To See... What To Eat!
631558649
OLYMPIA — Many people in county jails are receiving unemployment benefits they’re ineligible for, according to a state audit released this week. Washington’s auditor’s office scrutinized eight county jails and identified 1,911 potential overpayments worth about $656,000 from July 1, 2013, to Sept. 30, 2014. Of those 1,911, the Employment Security Department identified 1,264 payments that should have been at least partially denied, worth around $420,300, according to the department’s communications director Janelle Guthrie. The department has recollected roughly $100,000 so far, she said. People in jail or prison
aren’t eligible for certain government benefits. To find incarcerated people who received unemployment benefits, the audit looked at jails in King, Pierce, Thurston, Clark, Spokane, Kitsap, Snohomish and Yakima counties, matching records of unemployment benefits to jail records such as Social Security number, last name and date of birth. Clallam and Jefferson counties were not part of the audit. But the Employment Security Department, which distributes unemployment money, can’t access some of the confidential jail records necessary to find improper payments, according to a report by the auditor’s office. Guthrie said another challenge for the department is that people don’t serve as much time in jail compared
to state-run prisons, so it’s easier to avoid paying unemployment benefits to prisoners. “With the jail population you may have somebody who goes into jail overnight,” she said. The report says the auditor’s office recommends the state Legislature allow the employment agency to access confidential jail information needed to identify improper payments. In the meantime, Guthrie said the department has a temporary workaround to help prevent further overpayment. “I think we need a legislative fix,” she said. “I think we’re talking about requesting that next session.” Sen. Mark Miloscia, R-Federal Way, said he would support legislation to give the employment department access to further jail records.

Crockett said that part of the Navy’s outreach program should include a complaint line.
“If someone has a complaint about air traffic they can call the FAA [Federal Aviation Administration]. We need to get a point of contact for questions about these exercises,” he said. Crockett said he planned to seek answers to questions and address them at the next regular meeting, at 5:30 p.m. March 23 at 333 Benedict St. Mats Mats Bay, an inlet
on the Hood Canal, is one of several Jefferson County locations identified by the Navy as possible future sites for Navy SEAL training exercises. A 2016 Navy document listed Port Townsend Marina, Fort Flagler State Park, Indian Island, Port Ludlow, Mats Mats Bay, the Toandos Peninsula and Zelatched Point as training areas in Jefferson County.
The overall request also included Sequim Bay State Park in Clallam County and Port Hadlock Marina, Discovery Bay and Fort Worden, Fort Townsend and Dosewallips state parks in Jefferson County.

Drill: ‘Will be an outcry’ CONTINUED FROM A1 “There will be an outcry from all the recreational people so whatever you can do to mitigate that will help,” Pivarnik said. The Navy will participate in Jefferson County in the inter-agency earthquake preparedness exercise. The exercise will include coastal communities throughout Washington, Oregon and British Columbia and their emergency responders. “This is an opportunity for the military to be involved in humanitarian aid operations,” said Cmdr. Nicholas Vande Griend, commanding officer of Naval Magazine Indian Island. “It sets up an interaction between the DOD [Department of Defense] and civilian aid agencies,” he said. Designed as a worst-casescenario model, Cascadia Rising will be an exercise for response to a hypothetical magnitude 9.0 earthquake off the Oregon coast in the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a fault area that runs about 600 miles off the coast and includes a 700-mile area from Northern California to Vancouver Island. The exercise is to include local, state and federal agencies along with the Army and the Navy. Wednesday’s meeting took place in the Jefferson County commissioners’ chambers and was also attended by Port Townsend Mayor Deborah Stinson; Bob Hamlin, Jefferson County Emergency Management director; County Commissioner David Sullivan and County Administrator Philip Morley. Most of the information was presented by Cervantes with assistance from Vande Griend and facilities manager Gene King.

Logging: Sale CONTINUED FROM A1 The panel now is in the early stages of a yearlong effort to determine whether the county should reclaim the management of 92,525 acres of revenue-producing state Department of Natural Resources timberlands. The Natural Resources arrearage — the timber it is authorized to cut but never has harvested — stood at 60 million board feet a year last year, according to Rod Fleck, Forks city attorney and city planner. One year’s arrearage, Fleck said last summer, could have supplied Allen Logging Co. for several years. Two West End mills closed in July 2014: the Interfor sawmill in Beaver, idling 52, and the Interfor planer mill in Forks, which employed 35. In October of that year, Green Creek Wood Products in Port Angeles was closed. It employed 35.

Lloyd Allen came to the area in 1937, built a veneer mill on the Hoh in the 1950s, and added a sawmill in 1968, according to Lane.

Lane said he could not estimate Allen Logging’s payroll, but Fleck said it was between $3 million and $4 million.

She had deep roots in the region. For example, some of her ancestors were on the first wagon train to reach Puget Sound. After high school graduation, Mabel married Neville Campbell, a native of the Port Townsend area. They moved to Port

Death Notices
Death and Memorial Notice JOSEPH ROBERT ‘JERRY’ NEWLIN August 26, 1938 March 5, 2016 Joseph Robert Jerry Newlin — known to friends and loved ones as Jerry, Dad, and Papi — passed away March 5, 2016, at his home in Port Angeles from advanced stages of Lewy body dementia. Jerry was born August 26, 1938, in La Follette, Tennessee. He was a hard-working young lad, helping his father in his plumbing business and doing paper routes and other jobs. Even at a young age, he had a strong mischievous streak that nicely complemented his otherwise dependable and responsible character. At age 10, he made a bow and turned one of his father’s fly-fishing rods into an arrow, testing it out by shooting into a bunch of chickens, getting one right through the neck. That is just one of the many stories he used to share from his youth in Tennessee. After the death of his father in 1949, Jerry moved out west to California with his mother and younger sister, Judy, toward whom he had always been a loving and protective older brother.
Mr. Newlin His older sister, Jeanne, had already married her high school sweetheart, Wendell. Jerry, his mother and sister joined his aunt Jesse and uncle Peter in Santa Barbara, California, where they helped them manage a motel. He moved in 1951 to Live Oak, California, where he attended Live Oak Union High School. Here, he was active in student government, serving as president of the student body his senior year and continuing into Boy Scouts, earning the highest honor of Eagle Scout. He was already planning to pursue a career in engineering and was working various jobs to cover his own expenses and save for college.
This energetic young man still found time for an active social life and would cruise around in his prized Mercury convertible. When he was 17, he met his wife, Peggy, who was living in the nearby town of Gridley, California. While attending Yuba College in Marysville, California, Jerry became involved in a bagpipe band as a drummer. He had a passion for bagpipe and folk music all his life, and later taught himself guitar and played in church and folk music groups. In 1961, Jerry graduated from the University of Nevada with a degree in civil engineering and eventually settled in Sacramento, California, with his new family, having married Peggy (1958) and the birth of his first child, Christina, having already taken place in Reno, Nevada, while he was finishing college. In Sacramento, he obtained his first professional position with the state of California, where he distinguished himself working on water resource projects. His two boys, Jeffrey and Steven, were born during this time as well. An opportunity to advance his career led to him taking an engineering position with the state of Washington in 1968. He moved his young family to Olympia, Washington, all
piled in the brand-new Ford station wagon with water bumpers. In the moist Washington climate, Jerry developed a new interest in wild mushroom hunting, which remained a lifelong passion. Morels, chanterelles, even the oft-maligned “inky cap” became fair game for this avid mushroom hunter. Jerry transitioned to the private sector, taking a position in 1973 with the engineering firm Arvid Grant in Olympia, where he served as business development manager and senior project engineer. Among many other achievements during his tenure with Arvid Grant, he earned accolades for his extensive work for the city of Leavenworth, Washington, effectively serving as “city engineer” on a multiphase facilities improvement and beautification project. In 1983, Jerry and four other partners purchased Clark & Associates, a Port Angeles surveying and engineering company, now known as NTI (Northwestern Territories Inc). For two decades, Jerry was a manager with NTI, later becoming the sole owner. He retired from NTI in 2002, selling the business to a group of employees. NTI is still a leading engineering firm in the commu-

She was preceded in death by her daughter Robyn, husband Neville, sister Margaret Narcisi and brother Ray Lawrence. There will be an honoring of Mabel’s life at Trinity United Methodist Church, 609 Taylor Street, Port Townsend, on Saturday, March 12, 2016, at 2 p.m., followed by a reception at the Northwest Maritime Center, 431 Water Street, Port Townsend.
nity today. Jerry was tireless in his service to family, work and community. Jerry’s favorite activities included playing with grandchildren, church, travel and nature hikes. He was active in an extensive list of business, professional and service organizations, which included, among others, Rotary, Exchange Club, Chamber of Commerce and the American Society of Civil Engineers. Jerry was preceded in death by his parents, Paul and Inez Newlin; and half sister Grace Mink. Jerry is survived by his wife of nearly 60 years, Peggy Newlin; daughter Christina (Mario) Marques; sons Jeffrey and Steven (Denise); eight grandchildren; and his sisters, Jeanne Wallace and Judy Burton. The family wishes to extend heartfelt thanks for the compassionate dedication of the hospice care staff. Please join the Newlin family for a celebration of Jerry’s life Friday, March 11, 2016, at 2 p.m. at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church, 510 E. Park Avenue, Port Angeles, WA 98362.

Non-thinking voters fueling Trump Give ’em the old razzle dazzle Razzle Dazzle ’em Give ’em an act with lots of flash in it And the reaction will be passionate Give ’em the old hocus pocus Bead and feather ’em How can they see with sequins in their eyes? (“Chicago: The Musical”) LOOKING Cal FOR SOMEThomas ONE — anyone — to blame for the rise of Donald Trump, a rise fueled by angry white males who feel left out and rejected by the elites and special interest groups that disparage their race, mock their faith, criticize their patriotism as xenophobia, excoriate their traditions and protect everyone’s rights but their own?
Look no further than the culture beast that is primarily responsible for the fundamental transformation of America, as President Barack Obama once put it. We have an education system that doesn’t educate. Students get diplomas and degrees, but can’t find jobs. Television spews out “reality shows” that have nothing to do with reality. Kids seem to know more about sex than they do about schoolwork. Judges issue rulings that conform more to opinion polls than the Constitution. The strangest behavior is trotted out as the next civil rights movement and anyone who says “no” is branded a bigot. Many fallen nations collapsed not from war but from moral rot. We are consuming the intellectual equivalent of Pop-Tarts in a pop culture age, rather than food for the mind that produces sound reasoning and wise choices.
This is the fallout from the “if it feels good do it,” looking out for number one, baby boom generation and especially their spoiled offspring who know little about sacrifice, personal responsibility or nationalism. It should not surprise anyone that such non-thinking and selffocus has fueled the rise of Trump as a presidential candidate. On the other side of the political fence, Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton feed into the entitlement mentality that the government exists to give you stuff and take care of you. Democrats have exploited race and class for political advantage, deepening the divide between whites and blacks (and increasingly Hispanics), as well as the three classes — poor, middle class and wealthy. If the left really cared about African-Americans, wouldn’t that core Democratic constituency be better off now than they have ever been, given the amount of money spent on social programs

supposedly created to improve their lot in life? Trump’s rise is fueled by emotion, anti-intellectualism and the jettisoning of sober thought. Trump dispenses bromides. He lacks specifics because he has none. Unlike Ronald Reagan, who spent two decades thinking and honing his positions, Trump is like floor wax — all shine, no depth. Mitt Romney is right in much of what he says about Trump, but Trump’s rejoinder is that he — and Sen. John McCain — lost elections against President Obama, elections Trump says Romney should have won. In other words, the elites have had their chance and now it’s the people who believe they’ve been left out of the process who will decide the Republican nominee. It’s frightening that so many voters have decided on Trump. But for those who rail against him, who reject this reality TV star and man of questionable business success and moral fail-
ings, the indignation seems to be not only an indictment of the political establishment but of ourselves for paying too little attention to politics and government in between elections. We are to blame for Trump’s rise. Politics should not be a parttime concern. If voters only pay attention in an election year, they get what they deserve. If the choice is between Trump and Clinton, we are in really bad shape. As John F. Kennedy put it during the 1960 campaign, “We can do better.”

We need an election without polls SEN. BERNIE SANDERS won the Democratic presidential primary in Michigan, defeating Hillary Clinton — and all the pollsters. Election statistician Amy Nate Silver Goodman wrote that Sanders’ Michigan victory “will count as among the greatest polling errors in primary history.” Imagine if we had an election season without polls. Instead, the energy, investigation and money should be spent delving into candidates’ records, whether they’re a businessman like Donald Trump or they’re politicians like Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders. This will lead to a better informed, more engaged electorate. Why should it matter who our neighbors are voting for, or people who live across the state? Let each person make his or her decision on how to vote not on polling numbers, but on the
actual positions staked out by the candidates. Primaries, caucuses and Election Day are the ultimate polls. These are the reliable numbers, hard data, on how actual, hopefully well-informed citizens voted. Then the pundits, rather than speculating on how imaginary voters might act, can discuss reality. It is astounding that Sanders is where he is today. Look at the Tyndall Report’s summary of Campaign 2016 coverage. Andrew Tyndall has offered an independent daily analysis of the flagship evening news programs on CBS, NBC and ABC since the late 1980s. For the calendar year 2015, Tyndall writes, these networks produced more than 17 hours of reporting on the presidential campaigns. That’s over 1,000 minutes of national broadcast television airtime. Trump received 327 minutes, or close to one-third of all the campaign coverage. Sanders received just 20 minutes. Clinton got 121 minutes of

campaign coverage, six times the amount Sanders received. In one striking example of the disparate coverage, “ABC World News Tonight” aired 81 minutes of reports on Trump, compared with just 20 seconds for Sanders. The commercial networks have an inherent conflict of interest as well. Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent by the campaigns and by countless super PACs, buying advertising time to promote their candidate or issue. The more reporting the networks do, the less the candidates will feel the need to buy ad time to inform potential supporters of their positions. Since television remains the primary source of news for most Americans, this conflict of interest creates a major barrier to an informed public. The primaries determine the candidates of the two major parties. Put aside for the moment that the almost absolute blackout on reporting on third parties all but guarantees that these candidates, whether from the Green Party or from the Libertarian Party, for example, will have
almost no traction in the national elections. Voter turnout in this year’s primary elections has been historically high but, in a real sense, dismally low. The Pew Research Center reports that, in this year’s first 12 primaries, Republicans have turned out 17.3 percent of eligible voters, while Democrats have turned out 11.7 percent. These are record-high numbers, according to Pew, but consider just how low they are: More than 82 percent of Republicans and more than 88 percent of Democrats didn’t vote. Certainly, new impediments to voting, like requirements to have specific forms of photo identification, decrease participation. Indeed, some argue, many new laws were designed specifically to deter participation of poor people and people of color in the electoral process, thus favoring Republican candidates. “We always do well when the voter turnout is high,” Sanders said at a large campaign rally on Tuesday night in Miami, before learning of his victory in Michigan, “and we do poorly when the voter turnout is low.”

Networks generally have a policy of not releasing exit-polling data until polls close in order not to discourage voters from participating. Exit polls might indicate that a candidate is trailing or far ahead, and people might then feel that their vote wouldn’t make a difference. We should extend this policy to the entire election. We need a vigorous debate in the country about war and peace, the growing inequality between the rich and the rest of us, about immigration, education, mass incarceration, racism and so much more. And we need an engaged electorate, empowered by information and enabled to vote. Our democracy demands no less.

Will coho run really be small? NOT ALL ARE buying into the state Department of Fish and Wildlife’s doom and gloom summer and fall coho forecast. Ward Norden, owner of SnapMichael per Tackle ComCarman pany and a former fishery biologist who lives in Quilcene, disagrees with the state’s estimate of returning coho. Forecasts for chinook, coho, sockeye and chum were announced at a meeting in Olympia last week. Coho is the biggest worry, with a Puget Sound forecast of 256,000 coming in about one-third the size of the 2015 run. Subtotals for rivers and streams feeding the Strait of Juan de Fuca predict a return of just 8,351 total coho, 3,655 of which are hatchery stock. That’s down from the 2015 estimate of 22,258 total coho, 8,845 of which were hatchery. Warden wrote to me back on Sept. 25 and said he felt this coming summer and fall salmon season would be a good one for coho and a bad one for kings. Despite the state’s dire estimates of coho returns running at one-third of last year’s totals, Norden isn’t changing his tune. “Nope. The biological indicators did not lie,” Norden said. “This will be a good coho year and a poor chinook year. “The only question is the size of the coho, and we won’t know that until July.” Norden’s methodology is based off of 37 years of experience in forecasting run sizes.
Plankton productivity “First of all, my prognostications are based on plankton productivity offshore on the feeding grounds for the young salmon recently out of fresh water,” Norden said. Coho smolts typically leave for the Pacific Ocean in the spring, making late spring and summer a crucial period for figuring out returns for upcoming seasons. “The first couple months those young smolts are in salt water offshore determine returns for coho and pinks the following year [and] for chinook about three years later.” Norden then looks at plankton productivity to gauge what these salmon will be eating as they age. “I determine plankton productivity by watching currents and winds nowadays by satellite,” Norden said. Having gleaned that information, he then visits with fishermen, typically commercial trollers in locations like Neah Bay, to ferret out conditions on the open ocean. “I ask what they saw out there, such as water clarity, water color and the fish they saw,” Norden said. “Last year was quite extraordinary. Plankton productivity was very high within 5 miles of the beach, while beyond that was the ‘blob’ where productivity was low. The blob is a vast expanse of abnormally warm Pacific Ocean water — and a leading culprit in the lower than usual size of kings and coho last year. “The trollers noted that within the plankton bloom they saw smolts were growing much faster than usual, indicating good conditions and lower than usual mortality,” Norden said. “Conclusion: a larger than normal coho return this year. “As I told all of my customers for years: we may have a lot of fish coming back, but whether we get to fish for them is a political question, not a biological one.” In more encouraging news for future seasons, the blob, which formed during the winter of 2013-14, has dissipated in NASA satellite images taken in January.

Laster of all trades Sophomore does it all for Pirates BY MICHAEL CARMAN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
EVERETT — Variously described as a “blessing” and “a gift” by her teammates, Peninsula College sophomore Zhara Laster draws even more praise from women’s basketball coach Alison Crumb. “From a full-blown package perspective, with her defense, her ability to guard bigs and guards and play the perimeter and play in the paint, and be able to handle the ball and do all the things she does, she’s probably one of the best overall players I’ve ever had in this program because she contributes in every stat line,” Crumb said. “She gets steals, she gets assists, she can score, rebound, she gets stops, she can make free throws, hit 3s. “There’s not really a weakness. She has the potential to do it all.” Laster leads the thirdranked defending Northwest Athletic Conference champion Pirates (23-5) into today’s NWAC quarterfinal against second-ranked Umpqua (25-6) at 10 a.m. at Everett Community College. The versatile 5-foot-9 guard/ forward tops Peninsula in multiple per-game statistical categories, including rebounding (10.04), steals (3.18), assists (2.79) and is third in points (9.68). Laster already has set the Peninsula season steals record, swiping 89 balls this season, and is just nine away from breaking the school’s career steals mark of 145, held by Karli Brakes (2011-13).

Briefly . . . Madison and Seawolves win league title LACEY — Port Angeles High School graduate Jessica Madison played through sickness and helped the University of AlaskaAnchorage women’s basketball team win the Great Northwest Athletic Conference over the weekend. In Saturday’s championship game the Seawolves beat Montana State-Billings 77-57. Despite being hospitalized Friday morning with illness, Madison, a senior guard, had a buzzer-beating put back for a 61-47 lead at the end of the third quarter. Then, in the beginning of the fourth, she delivered a thrilling sequence with a layup, a steal and another layup to make Alaska-Anchorage’s lead 67-49, and Montana never closed the gap again. Madison finished with 12 points on 5 for 10 shooting, and added four steals and five rebounds in 20 minutes of play. Currently, Madison is averaging 10.1 PPG and is No. 8 on Alaska-Anchorage’s all-time career scoring list.

Hasselbeck retires Hawks: after 18 seasons BY JIM JOHNSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS — Matt Hasselbeck is moving from the huddle to in front of the camera. The 40-year-old quarterback said Tuesday he is retiring after 18 seasons in the NFL and will join ESPN as an NFL analyst beginning this fall. “As a kid, playing in the NFL was always my dream and it turned out to be way more fun than I could’ve ever imagined,” Hasselbeck said in a statement released by ESPN. “Throughout 18 incredible seasons, I had the chance to forge many rela-
tionships with teammates, coaches and staff that I will cherish forever. With the support of my family, we’ve made the decision to embark on the next chapter.” Hasselbeck had a 10-year stint in Seattle, during which he led the Seahawks to Super Bowl after the 2005 season. Seattle lost to Pittsburgh, 21-10. The three-time Pro Bowler was a 1998 sixthround draft pick by Green Bay. He played his last three seasons for Indianapolis. Most recently, the Colts went 5-3 with Hasselbeck starting in place of Andrew Luck, who missed much of the season with injuries.

Anglers host meeting A chance to ask ques-
quickly as we could. “This year, I feel more comfortable just letting her work that out on the floor instead of pulling her out to protect her. “Mentally, she’s just become so much stronger, and that’s such a boost because we don’t want her off the floor if we can help it.” More of a lead-by-example type, Laster’s growing maturity has rubbed off on her teammates. “She’s been a good leader for those freshman who may also struggle with getting down on themselves or getting kind of negative. To
see a player get better at that shows that you can get better at that and not hang on to past mistakes,” Crumb said. Cooks says Laster has assisted with her own growth this season. “To me personally, we have a special bond, we really click,” Cooks said. “She helps me even when I’m down to stay motivated and stay in the game. She’ll pull me aside and give me advice. And she accepts it, too. “I just tell her to toss it, leave it all behind and make the next play.” Against Umpqua, Laster
will be tasked with guarding Sawyer Kluge, a Bremerton product and former Olympic League MVP, who averages 21 points and 9.7 rebounds per game. “This is Zhara’s game, in my opinion,” Crumb said. “She needs to go out there and put herself in the mix. She’s going to be guarding Sawyer Kluge, one of their tougher rebounders and players, and I think that because Sawyer takes so many shots Zhara has an opportunity to get a lot of rebounds. “She’s going to have her work cut out for her, but Zhara’s a player who wants the test of playing against good players because she knows she’s a good player herself.” Crumb said Umpqua likes to play the same uptempo style as Peninsula. “It’s almost like looking in the mirror sometimes,” Crumb said. “This game will be about who can control possessions and not give the ball away, and rebound and win the battle on the boards.”

just one of their six restricted free agents, that being center Patrick Lewis. Lewis was inserted into the starting lineup in place of Drew Nowak midway through last season, a move that coincided with Seattle’s improvement in pass protection. By offering Lewis the tender, which is a reported $1.671 million, the Seahawks can match any offer Lewis may receive from another team. The most notable name on the list of those restricted free agents who were not tendered contracts is running back Christine Michael. Michael was Seattle’s prodigal son last season. The 2013 second-round draft pick was banished before the season began, being traded to Dallas after
failing to earn the Seahawks’ trust during his first two seasons with the team. However, after bouncing from Dallas to Washington, he was re-signed by Seattle following injuries to Marshawn Lynch and Thomas Rawls. He responded his second time around with the Seahawks, gaining 192 yards on 39 carries in three games. The others who were not tendered offers were tackle Alvin Bailey, fullback Derrick Coleman, receiver Ricardo Lockette and linebacker Nick Moody. Those players are now unrestricted free agents. It’s possible the Seahawks will try to bring some of those players back on contracts that have dollar amounts lower than what the tender amounts would have been.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Reigning champion Dallas Seavey held the lead Wednesday morning in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. The 28-year-old musher spent two and a half hours on the trail from Takotna, reached Ophir at 2:16 a.m., and after a five-minute stop, departed again at 2:21 a.m.

Brent Sass, Nicolas Petit, Ken Anderson and other mushers were taking longer breaks in Ophir before a 90-mile run to Iditarod. Wednesday is the fourth day of the 1,000-mile race.

DEAR ABBY: I’ve been estranged from my three siblings, their spouses and their families for 35 years — my choice. There has been no correspondence, and I have seen them only at our parents’ funerals. Because we are all in our 80s, I anticipate there will be funerals for us in the next decade. If I go first, there is no problem. However, I’m considering not attending their funerals or those of their spouses. My grown children say I must attend because I’m their brother. I’m concerned that I might be a distraction or there could be a confrontation. Besides, I still remember what caused my estrangement and I just don’t want to see them. I know I’m stubborn, but am I wrong? To Go or Not to Go

Dear Abby: I have very long hair and I’m proud of it. I have worn my hair long ever since I was a little girl. My problem is when I go somewhere, other women come up to me and start touching it. I understand that they like my hair because they always compliment me on it, but I hate it when strangers touch me. Apparently, people have forgotten the concept of “personal space.” How can I tell someone — without sounding rude — to please not touch me? Or must I just keep quiet and tolerate it with a smile?

Dear Abby: Is it wrong to have no interest in grandchildren? My wife is five years older than I am and she’s elated with our new grandchild. I’m only 42 and I feel I’m too young to be a “Gramps.” I prefer to be free from kid activities and enjoy my adult pursuits. I have raised children for the last 20-plus years and I think it’s my stepdaughter’s turn to be a parent. My wife is all gung ho to watch the grandchild anytime she’s free, but I’m not interested at all. Am I wrong for wanting my own time and space with my wife? Too Young For It in Oklahoma
Dear Rapunzel: Not everyone enjoys being touched, particularly by strangers. If someone reaches out to pet you, smile, step back and say, “I’d prefer you not do that.” You have a right to your personal space.

Dear Too Young: No law says you must baby-sit if you don’t by Brian Basset
The Last Word in Astrology ❘ ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t give out secret information. Protect your assets and don’t try to get away with something that could cause problems with banks, government agencies or institutions. Know what you are up against and negotiate strategically. Strive for equality. 3 stars
Rose is Rose
DEAR ABBY
Dear Go or No: I disagree with your children. People attend funerals to pay their respects to the deceased and/or comfort the family who has suffered the loss. If, after 35 years, you show up at the funeral, you could, indeed, be a distraction — unless it has been so long that nobody recognizes you.

$67,709.00 Legal No. 687281
PUBLIC NOTICE FEMA 4249 and 4253-DR-WA The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) hereby gives notice to the public of its intent to reimburse eligible applicants for eligible costs to repair and/or replace facilities damaged by severe storms, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, and mudslides occurring between November 12 and November 21, 2015 and a severe winter storm, straight-line winds, flooding, landslides, mudslides, and a tornado occurring between December 1 and December 14, 2015. This notice applies to the Public Assistance (PA) and Hazard Mitigation Grant (HMGP) programs implemented under the authority of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and emergency Assistance Act, 42 U.S.C. 5121-5207.
Under a major disaster declaration (FEMA 4249 DR-WA) signed by the President on January 15, 2016, the following counties have been designated eligible for Public Assistance funding: Chelan, Clallam, Garfield, Island, Jefferson, Kittitas, Lewis, Lincoln, Mason, Pend Oreille, Skamania, Snohomish, Spokane, Stevens, Wahkiakum, and Whitman. An additional major disaster declaration (FEMA 4253 DR-WA) signed by the President on February 2, 2106 designates Public Assistance funding for the following counties: Clallam, Clark, Cowlitz, Grays Harbor, Jefferson, Lewis, Mason, Pacific, Skamania, and Wahkiakum. Additional counties may be designated at a later date. All counties in the State of Washington are eligible for HMGP.
This public notice concerns activities that my affect historic properties, activities that are located in or affect wetland areas or the 100-year floodplain, and critical actions within the 500-year floodplain. Such activities may adversely affect the historic property, floodplain or wetland, or may result in continuing vulnerability to flood damage.
Presidential Executive Orders 11988 and 11990 require that all federal actions in or affecting the floodplain or wetlands be reviewed for opportunities to relocate, and evaluated for social, economic, historical, environmental, legal and safety considerations. Where there is no opportunity to relocate, FEMA is required to undertake a detailed review to determine what measures can be taken to minimize future damages. The public is invited to participate in the process of identifying alternatives and analyzing their impacts through this notification.
FEMA has determined that for certain types of facilities there are normally no alternatives to restoration in the floodplain/wetland. These are facilities that meet all of the following criteria: 1)FEMA’s estimate of the cost of repairs is less that 50-percent of the cost to replace the entire family, and is less that $100,000: 2) the facility is not located in a floodway; 3) the facility has not sustained major structural damage in a previous presidentially declared flooding disaster or emergency; and 4) the facility is not critical (e.g., the facility is not a hospital, generating plant, emergency operations center, or a facility that contains dangerous materials). FEMA intends to provide assistance for the restoration of these facilities to their pre-disaster condition, except that certain measures to mitigate the effects of future flooding or other hazards may be included in the work. For example, a bridge or culvert restoration may include a larger waterway opening to decrease the risk of future washouts.
For routine activities, this will be the only public notice provided. Other activities and those involving facilities that do no meet the four criteria are required to undergo more detailed review, including study of alternate locations. Subsequent public notices regarding such projects will be published if necessary, as more specific information becomes available.
In many cases, an applicant may have started facility restoration before federal involvement. Even if the facility must undergo detailed review and analysis of alternate locations, FEMA will fund eligible restoration at the original location if the facility is functionally dependent on its floodplain location (e.g., bridges and flood control facilities), or the project facilitates an open space use, or the facility is an integral part of a larger network that is impractical or uneconomical to relocate, such as a road. In such cases, FEMA must also examine the possible effects of not restoring the facility, minimize floodplain/wetland impacts, and determine both that an overriding public need for the facility clearly outweighs the Executive Order requirements to avoid the floodplain/wetland, and that the site is the only practicable alternative. State of Washington and local officials will confirm to FEMA that proposed actions comply with all applicable state and local floodplain management and wetland protection requirements.
FEMA also intends to provide HMGP funding to the State of Washington to mitigate future disaster damages. These projects may include construction of new facilities, modification of existing, undamaged facilities, relocation of facilities our of floodplains, demolition of structures, or other types of projects to mitigate future disaster damages. In the course of developing project proposals, subsequent public notices will be published if necessary, as more specific information becomes available.
The National Historic Preservation Act requires federal agencies to take into account the effects of their undertakings on historic properties. Those actions or activities affecting buildings, structures, districts or objects 50 years or older or that affect archeological sites or undisturbed ground will require further review to determine if the property is eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (Register). If the property is determined to be eligible for the Register, and FEMA’s undertaking will adversely affect it, FEMA will provide additional public notices. For historic properties not adversely affected by FEMA’s undertaking, this will be the only public notice.
As noted, this may be the only public notice regarding the above-described actions under the PA and HMGP programs. Interested persons may obtain information about these actions or a specific project by writing to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Joint Field Office. The corrected contact information is: P.O. Box 293, DuPont, WA 98327; (253) 964-7200. Comments should be sent in writing to Thomas J. Dargan, Federal Coordinating Officer, at the above address within 15 days of the date of this notice. PUB: March 10, 2016 Legal No:687270

Chipotle closure NEW YORK — A Chipotle store in Massachusetts was closed Wednesday after the local health board said an employee there tested positive for norovirus. Richard Berube, director for the health board in Billerica, Mass., said his agency confirmed one case of norovirus, and found two other suspected cases. Chipotle first closed the store Tuesday at the board’s suggestion, and is scheduled to reopen today, he said. None of the sick employees came in to work, but the store was closed as a precautionary measure, Berube said. Chipotle is already fighting to win back customers following a rash of incidents in which customers were sickened around
