PORT TOWNSEND — A residents’ group advocating the passage of a $40.9 million bond to subsidize the construction of a new elementary school in Port Townsend is giving its first public presentation Tuesday. The first meeting of the group, known as It’s Elementary, will be from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Port Townsend Community Center, 620 Tyler St. “This is a generational opportunity,” said Jeff Randall, the group’s leader. “If we want to continue to welcome young families to the community, we need to invest in a new elementary school.”
Replace school The district has placed a bond measure on the Feb. 9 ballot to subsidize a new facility to replace the aging Grant Street Elementary School as well as make districtwide improvements in safety, security and disabled access. The plan is to build a new school on the current athletic field behind the old building, which would be demolished at completion. If voters approve the bond, the plan is to open the new school for the 2018-19 school year. The measure will need a supermajority — 60 percent plus one vote — for passage. In addition, Port Townsend, with 11,472 registered voters, will need 2,675 voters to return a ballot to validate the election. TURN

Passings By The Associated Press
BARRY SCHWEID, 83, a legendary Associated Press diplomatic correspondent who reported from dozens of countries over a career spanning 56 years, died Thursday. Mr. Schweid died at home from complications of a degenerative neurological condition. Among his career highlights, he covered the difficult negotiations at Camp David that President Jimmy Carter brokered to reach a historic peace treaty in 1977 between Egypt’s Anwar Sadat and Israel’s Menachem Begin. As a reporter, he was known for taking complex situations, especially in the Middle East, and explaining them in simple, direct sentences, weaving in context and color. There was also a lighter side to Mr. Schweid. He often injected wry quips when interviewing officials. And, while covering Henry Kissinger on his countless “shuttle diplomacy” trips to the Middle East, he relieved his colleagues of their money playing liars’ poker. He chronicled the Cold War and then its end with the implosion of the Soviet Union, filing news alerts from officials traveling with Secretary of State James Baker. As his bureau chief at the time, Jon Wolman, remembered: “The facade of the Soviet Union was crumbling and the institutions of the Cold War were giving way, and Barry was filing one astonishing bulletin after another. His copy was brilliant. Off the top of his head, he could dictate developments with the sweep of history, oozing the significance of every twist and turn.”
For his retirement party in May 2012, several secretaries of state sent messages of congratula- Mr. Schweid tions, including a video of Madeleine Albright singing a tribute.
_________ LABREESKA HEMPHILL, 75, a gospel singer who co-founded the awardwinning family group The Hemphills, has died in Nashville, Tenn. A statement from the family’s publicist said she died Wednesday. Originally from Flat Creek, Ala., she got her introduction to music through her singing family, the Happy Goodman Family, and sang onstage at the historic Ryman Auditorium at age 9. She married Joel Hemphill of West Monroe, La., in 1957, and in 1966, they signed their first recording contract. The Hemphills were among the most successful gospel acts through the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, earning multiple Dove Awards. They also added their children, Joey, Trent and Candy, to the lineup. Some of their most popular songs were “He’s Still Working on Me,” “I Claim the Blood,” and “Consider the Lilies.”

Looking Back From the files of The Associated Press
TODAY IS FRIDAY, Dec. 11, the 345th day of 2015. There are 20 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: ■ On Dec. 11, 1844, the first experimental use of an inhaled anesthetic in dentistry took place as Dr. Horace Wells of Hartford, Conn., under the influence of nitrous oxide, had a colleague extract one of his teeth. On this date: ■ In 1792, France’s King Louis XVI went before the Convention to face charges of treason. Louis was convicted, and executed the following month. ■ In 1816, Indiana became the 19th state. ■ In 1936, Britain’s King
Edward VIII abdicated the throne so he could marry American divorcee Wallis Warfield Simpson; his brother, Prince Albert, became King George VI. ■ In 1941, Germany and Italy declared war on the United States; the U.S. responded in kind. ■ In 1964, Che Guevara addressed the United Nations; in his speech, the Argentine revolutionary declared that “the final hour of colonialism has struck.” ■ In 1972, Apollo 17’s lunar module landed on the moon with astronauts Eugene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt aboard; during three extravehicular activities (EVAs), they became the last two men to date to step onto the
lunar surface. ■ In 1994, leaders of 34 Western Hemisphere nations signed a free-trade declaration in Miami. ■ In 1997, more than 150 countries agreed at a global warming conference in Kyoto, Japan, to control the Earth’s greenhouse gases. ■ In 2008, Bernie Madoff was arrested, accused of running a multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme. Madoff is serving a 150-year federal prison sentence. ■ Ten years ago: Thousands of drunken white youths, angered by reports that youths of Lebanese descent had assaulted two lifeguards, attacked police and people they believed were Arab immigrants at a beach in Sydney, Aus-
tralia; young men of Arab descent retaliated in several Sydney suburbs, fighting with police and smashing cars. ■ Five years ago: The eldest son of disgraced financier Bernard Madoff, 46-year-old Mark Madoff, hanged himself in his Manhattan apartment on the second anniversary of his father’s arrest. ■ One year ago: CIA Director John Brennan, responding to a U.S. Senate torture report, acknowledged that “abhorrent tactics” were used on terror detainees but said it was “unknown and unknowable” whether the harsh treatment yielded crucial intelligence that could have been gained in any other way.
PENINSULA DAILY NEWS for Friday/Saturday, December 11-12, 2015 PAGE
A6 Briefly: Nation Official mostly mum about U.S. commandos WASHINGTON — The commando force that President Barack Obama is dispatching to Iraq to conduct clandestine raids against the Islamic State group does not fit neatly into a picture of the U.S. military strategy for defeating the extremist army. Offered a chance by the Senate Armed Services Committee to expand on the Pentagon’s cryptic outline of the force’s makeup and Carter mission, Defense Secretary Ash Carter demurred. He said that the force would be positioned to gather intelligence, conduct raids and free hostages in Iraq while partnered with Iraqi forces. He also said it conduct unilateral hit-and-run raids into Syria. The force is intended to ratchet up pressure on the Islamic State group by using a small number of special operations troops — possibly fewer than 100 — to more aggressively use intelligence information, to include capturing and killing the group’s leaders. In theory, this would generate even more and better intelli-
gence, feeding what the military calls a “virtuous cycle” of intelligence-driven air and ground operations.
Arrested on campus JONESBORO, Ark. — An armed man drove onto Arkansas State University on Thursday, sparking a campus lockdown before police took him into custody without any shots fired, a university spokesman said. University spokesman Bill Smith said the man was safely taken into custody about an hour after the incident began. Jonesboro Police spokesman Paul Holmes said bomb squad technicians were going to examine the truck the suspect had driven into the middle of campus.
Plans for more drones WASHINGTON — The Air Force said it plans to more than double the number of squadrons that fly drones and will spread them out in more locations across the U.S. and overseas. The decision would add about 3,000 personnel, including at least 700 more pilots, 700 sensor operators and other maintenance and crew. There are currently eight squadrons. Gen. Herbert Carlisle, head of U.S. Air Combat Command at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia, said adding squadrons to potential sites such as Langley and Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona could help connect drone operations with intelligence-gathering units.

U.S. plans shelters for migrant children 2 in Texas, 1 in Calif. due to spike in kids crossing border BY NOMAAN MERCHANT AND SETH ROBBINS THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
centers, and adult migrants are often jailed when they are apprehended, but children traveling alone need special treatment under federal law, so officials plan to open at least three shelters — two in Texas and one in California — to accommodate them. The additional beds will enable the U.S. Health and Human Services Department to shelter up to 9,800 unaccompanied minors at a time.
DALLAS — A new spike in unaccompanied Central American minors crossing illegally into the United States is pushing federal officials to open shelters in Texas and California. A total of 10,588 unaccompanied children crossed the U.S.Mexico border in October and November, more than double the 5,129 who crossed during the same two months last year, Don’t want backups according to the U.S. Border “What we don’t want to have Patrol. happen is have a backup of people” at the border, agency spokesFamily members tripled man Mark Weber said. “We are The number of family mem- making sure we have the capacity bers crossing together has nearly in place to take care of the children.” tripled, to 12,505.

minors from Central America over to Health and Human Services. That agency is responsible for their care until they are placed with a sponsor or have an immigration hearing. Border crossings have not reached the levels of two summers ago, when a migrant surge prompted Texas officials to deploy the National Guard. More than 10,000 children arrived in the United States that June alone. Still, the numbers began to pick up again this June and have remained high since then. It remains to be seen whether this is a true resurgence, but Meyer said it is a telling sign that more families and children are coming during fall and winter months, when migration generally slows down. As many as 1,000 of the children will stay at two rural camps outside Dallas: the Sabine Creek Ranch in Rockwall County and the Lakeview Camp and Retreat Center in Ellis County.
Briefly: World France presents new climate change accord LE BOURGET, France — French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius has presented a new draft of a global climate accord showing governments have made progress on some crunch issues but still disagree on others. The 27-page draft released late Thursday — two pages shorter than a previous version — suggested negotiators have Fabius settled on a long-term goal of keeping global warming “well below” 3.6 degrees F. Previous drafts included stronger options with more specific timeframes.
State and al-Qaida. The CIA alerted Swiss authorities to the four men on Wednesday, prompting the manhunt, said an unnamed Swiss official. The official confirmed the suspects were four men shown in a photograph linked to a news report in Swiss daily Le Matin. They were pictured each in a crouched pose and holding up an index finger — said to be an Islamic State gesture.
New president sworn in
BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — Mauricio Macri was sworn in as Argentina’s president Thursday, inheriting myriad economic problems from the often-divisive outgoing leader Cristina Fernandez, who skipped the inauguration in a final sign of confrontation that underscored deep polarization in the South American nation.

THE U.S. ENVIRONMENTAL Protection Agency has approved water quality rules meant to protect southeastern Montana cropland from wastewater produced during natural gas drilling in neighboring Wyoming. Wyoming officials and oil and gas companies have assailed the rules as a threat to energy production. The regulations limit how much salty water — a byproduct of drilling — can enter waterways in the Tongue and Powder River basins along the Montana-Wyoming border. Farmers have said their crop yields dropped due to poor-quality water flowing out of Wyoming gas fields.

Light Up Lincoln campaign calls in donor pledges BY DIANE URBANI DE LA PAZ PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — The Light Up the Lincoln campaign to buy and reopen downtown’s shuttered movie house is looking to turn supporters’ pledges into actual donations by the end of the year. With some $185,000 promised over the past nine months by people who want to see the theater turn into a nonprofit performing arts center, Light Up the Lincoln organizer Scott Nagel said Thursday he’s almost ready to make a deal with Sun Basin Theatres, the old cinema’s Wenatchee-based owner. Nagel, executive director of Port Angeles’ Dungeness Crab & Seafood Festival for the past 14 years, made Sun Basin an offer of $235,000 a year ago this month. Then, with his wife and business partner, Karen Powell, he began the explaining and fundraising process. With your support, they told would-be donors, the Lincoln can become the county’s center for concerts, plays, film festivals, company parties and other events, reinvigorating the downtown and drawing name acts from across the continent. Ranging from $20 to $10,000, the pledges have come in — but they were just that: promises to pay.
Fiscal sponsorship To collect the funds and allow donors to write their contributions off on their 2015 income tax returns, Nagel has entered into a fiscal sponsorship agreement with the nonprofit Olympic View Community Foundation, formerly known as the Sequim Community Foundation. The agreement means Olympic View will process and manage the funds while designating them as tax-deductible charitable donations, said Sue Ellen Riesau, executive director of the 15-year-old foundation. “Letters are going out today, calling in the pledges,” Riesau said Thursday. She added that more information, donation forms and an appeal for more support were being posted Thursday on Olympic View’s website, www.ov-cf. org, as well as on the Light Up the Lincoln page at www.revitalizeportangeles. org. Contributors will be able to make secure donations via those portals, Riesau said. They can also reach

Nagel at 360-808-3940 and Riesau at 360-797-1338.
Board of directors Nagel and Powell have also been busy recruiting a board of directors for a reborn Lincoln Theater. There will be seven volunteer directors, Nagel said Thursday, though he would list only two who are confirmed: John Brewer, publisher emeritus of the Peninsula Daily News, Sequim Gazette and Forks Forum, and Michael McQuay, coowner of the Kokopelli Grill in downtown Port Angeles. The rest of the directors will be announced next week, Nagel said. He also plans to apply for federal nonprofit status for the Lincoln Theater and expects that process to take about a year.
Report in January As for the fundraising, Nagel said he’ll issue a report in January; then he means to start final purchase negotiations with Sun Basin Theatres. “We have several things coming together,” he said, such as major donations and ways to structure the deal. Yes, this has taken quite awhile, he acknowledged. All along, the Lincoln’s marquee at 132 E. First St. has read “building for sale.” Listing agent Dan Gase of Coldwell Banker Uptown Realty has shown the 98-year-old theater to several parties, but Nagel and Powell, as makers of the offer, are the buyers in first position, Gase has said. Yet “we can’t really do anything,” Nagel said, “until we have the money in the bank. “We’ll be ready to make a deal after the first of the year.”

West End goes dark while weather misses Peninsula BY JAMES CASEY PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
The North Olympic Peninsula dodged the worst of the winter storm that lashed Western Washington on Thursday, with the biggest impact being an electrical power outage on the West End. No rivers on the Peninsula had risen above flood stage by 4 p.m., according to the U.S. Geological Survey, and no additional facilities were closed in Olympic National Park.
Report of tornado While heavy weather closed Cascade Mountain passes and the National Weather Service investigated the report of a tornado at Battle Ground, about 5,500 West End customers of the Clallam County Public Utility District lost power at around 2:44 p.m. when a Bonneville Power Administration line was damaged. Mike Howe, PUD spokesman, said the BPA estimated it would take
three hours before a crew could arrive to locate the problem. He had no estimate of when it might be repaired. About 1,100 customers had lost power Thursday morning in the Diamond Point, south Bell Hill, Happy Valley and Chicken Coop areas. Electricity was restored by 1:30 p.m. to all but a small area at Chicken Coop by 1:30 p.m. Despite high winds at Port Townsend, the Jefferson County PUD reported an outage to only about 45 customers at the tip of Discovery Bay as of 1:30 p.m. Downed power lines blocked both lanes of state Highway 20 at about the same time. By 4:40 p.m., the roadway was reopened.
No walk in the park In Olympic National Park, the Elwha Valley entrance remained closed and would stay so “for quite some time,” according to spokeswoman Barb Maynes. Park personnel were
assessing a washout near the Elwha Campground that occurred in late November, but they didn’t expect to plan repairs until the winter storm season ends, she said. Sol Duc Road, closed as a precaution because it is prone to landslides, also remained barred. At Lake Quinault, only the Graves Creek Road remained closed due to damage. Maynes said no schedule had been set for repairs. Snow depth at Hurricane Ridge was unavailable, but snow measured 22 inches at the Waterhole site nearby.
High winds
Jefferson County caught the most rain, with 2.10 inches falling at Quilcene in the 24 hours before 3 p.m. Thursday, with 1.28 inches reported at Port Ludlow and 0.98 inches at Brinnon. Forks measured 0.80 inches; Indian Valley, 0.90 inches; Port Angeles, 0.39 inches; and Port Townsend and Sequim, 0.33 inches.
Vancouver Island By midafternoon, spiraling winds had shifted to the southwest from a storm centered over southern Vancouver Island. A larger storm remained farther northwest in the Pacific off the northern end of the island, according to the weather service. The Port Angeles-area forecast called for rain continuing at least until Monday, with a sunbreak Tuesday, before rain is expected to resume.
High winds continued to buffet the Peninsula, gusting to 38 mph at the mouth of the Strait of Juan de Fuca in the 24 hours prior to 3 p.m. Thursday, with 31 mph reported at the Hood _______ Canal Bridge, 33 mph at Port Townsend and 39 mph Reporter James Casey can be at Coast Guard Air Station/ reached at 360-452-2345, ext.

Ex-Forks council member appointed to Quillayute Valley School Board BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
FORKS — Kevin Hinchen has been appointed to the Quillayute Valley School Board. Hinchen, a former Forks City Council member and sporting goods manager for Forks Outfitters, was appointed Tuesday to the Position 2 seat vacated by Rick Gale, who resigned Oct. 13. The appointment brings the five-seat board back to full strength. Hinchen and Ron Hurn, who was appointed in November, will be sworn in along with newly elected board member Val James Giles, Position 1, during an early January ceremony, said Bill Rohde, board chairman. Rohde and Mike Reaves, who were both reelected to their positions Nov. 3, also will be sworn in for their new terms in January. Hurn’s appointment filled position 4, which opened when Brian Pederson resigned Oct. 17. School board directors oversee a budget in excess of $28 million, with responsibility for policy and governance of district schools, as well as Insight School of Washington, a distance-learning Internet-based school.

2 Peninsula schools get state award BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
Crescent High School in Joyce and Greywolf Elementary School in Sequim have been named 2015 Schools of Distinction. Crescent received its award for an improved graduation rate over the past five years, while Greywolf’s award was for sustained improvement over a fiveyear period in reading/English language arts, according to the Center for Educational Effectiveness, which selects schools for the award. The two are the only North Olympic Peninsula schools receiving the award. The center conducts and disseminates research and provides data services for school and district improvement planning. A total of 90 schools — 3.7 percent of public schools in Washington state — were selected as the 2015 Schools of Distinction. Awards were announced for 51 elementary, 20 middle/junior high and 21 high schools.
Crescent High School “We’re sure excited about it,” said Clayton Mork, superintendent and principal of Crescent School, which serves students from kindergarten through the 12th grade. The award is for the high school portion of the school only, Mork said. The school’s small class sizes — as few as 10 students per classroom — and its focus on helping students during special study periods, after school and Saturdays have paid off with notable improvements, he said. Mork said the district’s students, teachers and staff have worked hard to improve scores and graduation rates. The introduction of the Smarter Balanced Assessment, a state test, made it difficult for the center to define improvement, he said. Because the new assessment is vastly different from the state High School Proficiency Exams, which it replaces, the center turned

Greg Lynch, superintendent of the Olympic Educational Service District, will make a formal presentation of the award and a banner to the Crescent School District at the next Crescent School Board meeting at 7 p.m. Dec. 17 at the school library, 50350 state Highway 112.
Greywolf Elementary This is the third year in a row Greywolf Elementary has received the School of Distinction award. “We’ve been working hard to do the right thing,” said Principal Donna Hudson, who has served at that post for six years. The acknowledgement of the work it takes to continue being in the top 5 percent is a nice thing for staff, teachers and students, she said. The banner will be presented to the school by Lynch during a schoolwide assembly in January, she said. The school is located at 171 Carlsborg Road in Carlsborg.

CARLSBORG — Curious about the new Clallam County Public Utility District’s new administrative office? Following a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10 a.m. Saturday, the public is invited to participate in self-guided tours of the $8 million, 29,496-square-feet facility, including areas generally inaccessible to customers, Mike Howe, PUD communications and government relations manager, said Thursday morning during a tour of the facility. The building is located at 104 Hooker Road in Carlsborg. The free event, which lasts until 2 p.m., will include complimentary cupcakes from That Takes the Cake of Sequim, raffle prizes and a visit by Santa Claus, who will be available for photos for visitors with cameras between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. “We have Santa coming . . . straight from the North Pole,” Howe said. “People have to bring their own cameras, but they don’t have to pay anything.” Howe encourages members of the public to attend
the ceremony and take a self-guided tour “because it is their building,” he said. “It is a public building. They should come check it out and see it was built with efficiency in mind. “We just wanted a nice quality, sturdy building that would last for a long time, and look good for the community.”
Heads on hand Department heads will be on hand to answer questions about the work their employees do and how it affects the overall operation, with informational placards set up throughout the building, Howe said. “They are going to have a little display so . . . you can learn a little bit about the department and what they do,” he said. The new building boasts several conference rooms — two of which, just off the main lobby, are available to the public for use upon request — a payment center, two kitchen/dining areas for employees and plenty of office space. Bills delivered to the 30,000 or so PUD customers in the area are printed and packaged on site by a
machine in the rear of the building, Howe said. The new facility, part of a $12 million comprehensive facilities program announced in March 2014, replaces the former PUD headquarters building at 2431 E. U.S. Highway 101, about 2.5 miles east of downtown Port Angeles. That building was constructed in 1966. That office is now closed to customers and will be sold, Howe said. The Carlsborg headquarters building is about double the size of the old headquarters in Port Angeles and is designed to be in service for the next 50 years, Howe said. Additionally, “we have consolidated a number of offices into this one building,” he said. “The idea is to create one stop shopping and some internal efficiencies as well as accommodate future growth.” The more than 70 employees who work in the new building began the process of moving in Nov. 23 and “are excited and have adjusted quite well,” Howe said. The building opened for business Nov. 24, he said.
The move consolidates the former offices in Port Angeles and at 502 S. Still Road in Sequim. The Sequim office was rented space.
Payment centers The PUD also has opened payment centers in Port Angeles and Sequim. The Sequim center is inside the Co-op at 216 E. Washington St. The Port Angeles center is inside Country Aire Natural Foods at 200 W. First St. They are open from 8 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. daily. Construction crews working under the supervision of the contractor, Neeley Construction & Cabinet Co. of Puyallup, broke ground on the new building in October 2014. The new offices were designed by Lawhead Architects P.S. of Bellevue and incorporate 1,000 cubic yards of concrete, 175 tons of structural steel and 47 tons of rebar.

Obama signs education bill co-written by Sen. Murray BY DONNA GORDON BLANKINSHIP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SEATTLE — U.S. Sen. Patty Murray said an overhaul she co-wrote for the No Child Left Behind law will lift punishment the federal government has held over Washington’s public schools. The Senate on Wednesday approved legislation that President Barack Obama signed Thursday morning. Joined by lawmakers, students and teachers in a White House auditorium, Obama praised the George W. Bush-era No Child Left Behind for having the right goals. He said that in practice, it fell short or applied a cookie-cutter approach that failed to produce desired results. Under the new law, the federal government will shift more decision-making powers back to states. “With this bill, we reaffirm that fundamental American ideal that every child — regardless of race, gender, background, zip code — deserves the chance to make out of their lives what they want,” Obama said. “This is a big step in the right direction.” Washington state will no longer have to seek waivers, which grant flexibility for
strict federal policies, under the new measure. It also will return control of about $40 million in federal funds to local school officials and eliminate the need to send letters home to families saying their schools were failing. “The impact of the NCLB law is literally every parent getting a letter home from school in the fall saying your school is failing, which didn’t improve education for anyone,” Murray said. “There will be no more waivers. There will be no more letters home to parents.” In 2014, Washington lost its waiver after lawmakers refused to answer a demand by the federal government that they pass a bill that would require statewide student test results to be used as a factor in teacher evaluations. Murray said she expects the proposed version of the federal education law will spark a new national interest on early learning, encourage innovation in the states and decrease emphasis on school testing.
Teachers pleased Members of the statewide teacher’s union, the Washington Education Association, celebrated the passage of the new law. WEA President Kim
Mead said the newly passed bill, known as the Every Student Succeeds Act, will ensure more time is spent learning and less time will be focused on high-stakes tests. “With the passage of this act, we’re eager to leave the old and flawed federal law behind,” Mead said in a statement, adding her thanks to Murray for putting kids first and for listening to the concerns of educators. Gov. Jay Inslee called the old federal education law — a product of the George W. Bush administration — “outdated and burdensome” and agreed that the new law would be good for Washington.
‘Need flexibility’
The No Child Left Behind overhaul is the result of one of the most successful bipartisan collaborations in Congress this year, between Murray and the Republican chair of the Senate Education Committee, Sen. Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, who called the new law a “Christmas present” to 50 million children across the country.
Bipartisanship Bipartisan cooperation is the key to getting things done in Congress, Murray said. “I come to work knowing what the issues are that are important to the people,” she said. “You don’t get everything you want,” but you can reach your goals when you find people who are willing to compromise. Murray has a long list of other initiatives she wants to tackle in the near future: making higher education more affordable, improving the nation’s health care system, and reforming laws to help people with mental illness and opioid drug addictions. “I have a lot to work on,” she said. “I am not bored.”
State Rep. Sharon Tomiko Santos, chairwoman of the House Education Committee, said the old law was too focused on punishment. “States need flexibility in order to adopt policies that work best in our unique communities,” Santos, D-Seattle, said in a statement. “Gone are the days when the federal government can use the threat of funding ________ cuts to coerce states into adopting policies that don’t Peninsula Daily News reporter best meet the needs of stu- Mark Swanson contributed to this dents.” report.

Lisa Condran, the school’s principal, said tests found no asbestos in the area. A new boiler was installed in 2010 and attached to the existing pipe system, which would have required taking down several walls to replace. To replace the leaky pipe, walls would need to be torn down which would disrupt the school, Taylor said. The pipe cannot be repaired with wraparound tape because there is no room to use the tape because the pipe abuts a second pipe.

SEQUIM — A Sequim man shored up his home against the onslaught of the rain-swollen Dungeness River, which by Thursday had come within several feet of his back porch. Matt McWilliams, 59, had spent the past two days using tree logs and debris to create a barrier at the edge of his home at 131 Serenity Lane, located southwest of Sequim, in the hope of halting the advancing deluge.

The Dungeness River peaked at slightly above its flood stage of 7 feet early Wednesday, with a discharge of more than 4,000 cubic feet per second, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. By 4:30 p.m. Thursday, it had fallen to about 6 feet, with a discharge of slightly less than 3,000 cfs. As of Thursday afternoon, the efforts of McWilliams and Booren had paid off.

SEATTLE — A Chipotle Mexican Grill in Seattle has been closed by health officials for repeated food safety violations. Public Health-Seattle and King County said in a news release Thursday it closed the restaurant in the South Lake Union neighborhood for violations on three different visits. An inspection report shows the violations stem from failing to keep ingredients hot enough, which officials say can contribute to foodborne illness. Chipotle spokesman Chris Arnold told The
Associated Press in an email they are looking into the cause of the violation and will address it. Officials have been closely monitoring Chipotle restaurants since October when 43 stores in Washington and Oregon voluntarily closed after they were linked to an E. coli outbreak.

Japanese cars do best in insurance safety rankings BY DEE-ANN DURBIN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT — Japanese brands dominate the insurance industry’s rankings of the safest vehicles for the 2016 model year. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety said Thursday that 48 vehicles earned its highest rating of “Top Safety Pick Plus.” That’s up from 33 a year ago. Toyota, Honda and Subaru had the most winners, with 23 combined. Volkswagen and its luxury brand, Audi, had seven winners. Volvo, Hyundai and
Mazda each had multiple winners. The Chrysler 200 was the only domestic car to earn the designation. To be a “Top Safety Pick Plus,” vehicles must get the top score in all five of the group’s crash tests. Winners must also offer advanced front crash-prevention systems with automatic emergency braking. The institute said several vehicles added automatic braking in 2016 so they could compete for the top prize, including the Nissan Maxima and Toyota Avalon. Before this year, winners could get a lower score on
the small overlap front crash test, which is the institute’s newest and most challenging test. It replicates what happens when the front corner of a car hits a fixed object. Some previous winners, such as the Toyota Sienna minivan, dropped off the list this year because they didn’t earn the top score on that test. Adrian Lund, the institute’s president, said the group tightened its requirements in order to recognize the progress that some automakers are making and encourage others to follow. The institute noted that
automatic braking is standard on the Scion iA, a $16,000 subcompact. It was the only minicar to earn the designation. Only a handful of other vehicles, all of them luxury models, offer automatic braking as a standard feature. Most offer it as an option. Thirteen vehicles, including five made by General Motors Co., earned the institute’s second-highest rating of “Top Safety Pick.” Among those was the Buick Encore, which earned the highest scores on the institute’s crash tests but doesn’t offer automatic braking. Rankings from the Insurance Institute — which is funded by the insurance industry — are closely watched by automakers and consumers.
WOLFSBURG, Germany — A small group of Volkswagen engineers began working as early as 2005 on emissions cheating software after they were unable to find a technical solution to U.S. emissions controls as the automaker pushed into the North American market, executives said Thursday. The company in September admitted to have cheated on U.S. diesel emissions tests with the help of software installed in engines. The software was built into 11 million cars globally, about 500,000 of which are in the U.S., from 2009 to 2015. It has so far confirmed to have cheated only on the U.S. tests, which are more rigorous than European ones for the polluting emission nitrogen oxide. In an update on the company’s investigation in the case, Chairman Hans Dieter Poetsch said engineers in 2005 were unable to find a technical solution to U.S. nitrogen oxide emissions within their “timeframe and budget” and came up with the software that manipulated results when lab testing was done. Later, when a technical solution became available, it was not employed, Poetsch said. “We are not talking about a one-off mistake, but a whole chain of mistakes that was not interrupted at any point along the time line,” he told reporters at Volkswagen headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany.

mobile payment wars are heating up. Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world’s largest retailer, said it’s launching its own mobile payment system that will allow shoppers to pay with any major credit or debit card or its own store gift card through its existing smartphone app at the cash register. It started testing the new payment feature Thursday at its stores in the Bentonville, Ark., area, where the retailer is based. It plans to launch the payment system called Walmart Pay in all 4,500plus U.S. stores early next year. Wal-Mart’s new mobile payment systems works this way: Shoppers download the Walmart app and then select a payment method. At the register, they open up the app and then they activate the camera function to scan a QR code on the reader. That connects the phone to the basket of items they’re checking out. Customers can put the phone away, and an e-receipt application will be sent to the app.

Film fest offers fix for skiers WHILE AMPLE SNOWFALL is in the forecast for Hurricane Ridge, organizers of the Hurricane Ridge Winter Sports Area said operations were not likely to begin this weekend in a post Wednesday at hurricaneridge.com. If the snow continues to fall Michael in abundance, as predicted, opera- Carman tions could start up Saturday, Dec. 19. But an outlet to whet the appetite of snow seekers does exist — and no, I’m not talking about a trek to ski or snowboard at Mount Baker. Instead, the Backcountry Film Festival makes its annual return to Port Angeles’ Metta Room, 132 E. Front St., on Saturday. Nine backcountry skiing and snowboarding films will be shown at the event, which begins at 7 p.m. Admission is $10 for adults, children 12 and younger $7. Proceeds benefit the Hurricane Ridge Winter Sports Club. Nine short films will be shown. They are: ■ “Japan by Van” offers a trip to the head-deep powder of the Shirakawa backcountry. ■ “Shared Lines” tells the story of the Vermont Backcountry Alliance. ■ “Shifting Ice” is about an allwomen team on a journey of scientific exploration. ■ “The Weight of Winter” is a short profile of three skiers venturing into a massive storm at Hokkaido, Japan. ■ “I Love Splitboarding” showcases splitboards, a snowboard that can separate into two ski-like parts and be used with climbing skins to ascend slopes. ■ “55 Hours in Mexico” chronicles an epic weekend for three adventurers in Mexico. ■ “Always Above Us” lets climbing legends Conrad Anker and Kris Erickson tell a tale of life, loss and perseverance as they negotiate Montana’s most famous mixed climbing route. ■ “Connections” allows the Dynafit team to share the story of the simple “low tech” binding design that changed the face of backcountry skiing. ■ “The Forecaster” profiles expert avalanche forecaster Drew Hardesty.

Sequim shares, wins Wolves top Red Devils by passing BY LEE HORTON PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
SEQUIM — ’Tis the season for giving. The Sequim Wolves gave the ball to each other and received a 65-60 win over Neah Bay on Wednesday night. “That’s the key for us this year: if we can share the ball, then we’ll be pretty good,” Sequim senior Jack Shea said “If we try to be better athletes and take [opponents] oneon-one then it’s not going to work out. “We’ve got to be able to share the ball to be successful.” Trailing 28-26 at halftime, the Wolves adjusted and began running their offense through the high post.

SEQUIM — How did that happen? Coach Tony McCaulley struggled to pin down how the Neah Bay girls were able pull off a 55-35 win over Sequim in their season opener. Even if the result wasn’t surprising, the margin of victory was — a 20-point win by a Class 1B team playing its first game against a 2A team playing its third. “I don’t know. I don’t know. It looks like we’re . . . I don’t know,” McCaulley said following Wednesday’s game. “We played well. I was impressed with the girls tonight.” It took the Red Devils nearly five minutes to score their first point of the game and season. That first basket, a layup by Tristin Johnson with 3:10 left in the opening quarter, cut the deficit to 3-2 because the Wolves

weren’t doing much better. Jordan Miller scored less than a minute into the contest and Ella Christiansen added a free throw that made it 3-0 with 6:04 to play, but then Sequim went four minutes without a point.
Rains 3s The teams swapped the lead a few times the remainder of the first quarter, including three times in the final minute as they traded 3-pointers. Gina McCaulley’s 3 gave the lead back to Neah Bay a 7-5, but Sequim’s McKenzie Bentz took it back with a trey with 36 seconds left that made it 8-7. Then, with eight seconds left, Johnson received the ball near a few feet beyond half-court.

Norden said there are plenty of ducks on area waterways but weather is wrecking opportunities. “The windows when it has been safe to be out on the water have been small,” Norden said. Typically there’s a stretch of cooler, dry weather in December, and Warden is hoping that will change the luck for waterfowl hunters.

Fishing prospects are not great in East Jefferson County, as one could imagine with the prodigious precipitation in recent weeks. “Fishing in Hood Canal is getting tougher daily with the flooded rivers rapidly turning much of the canal muddy,” Norden said.
Their post players, particularly Shea and Nick Faunce, became passers who looked for baseline cutters for easy shots. It worked. Sequim made 15 of its 21 second-half field goals to beat Neah Bay for the third consecutive time in what has become a fun once-a-year rivalry between the Class 2A Wolves and the 1B Red Devils. “We made that extra pass tonight, which was good to see,” Sequim coach Greg Glasser said. The Wolves actually shot well the entire game — they also made 9 of 15 in the first half and, overall, shot 63 percent from the field.

Seattle’s Richard Sherman returns an interception of Matt Schaub for a touchdown in 2013.
RENTON — It’s a moment that’s come to define two men. When the Seattle Seahawks travel to face the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, the scene is set for the reunion of two players who were on opposite ends of a play that kick-started one dynasty and ended the possibility of another. Those players are Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman and Ravens quarterback Matt Schaub, and their careers can be summed up by their intersection
on Sept. 29, 2013, when Schaub was playing for the Houston Texans. “Yes, I do have fond memories of that game,” Sherman said during his weekly press conference at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. That moment further solidified Sherman as arguably the NFL’s best cornerback, while Schaub’s name is now synonymous with the term “pick-six.” At the time the game was billed as a battle between two Super Bowl contenders.

Payton Glasser added 13 ground.”
Neah Bay made 5 of 15 3-pointers in the first half, and that accounted for 15 of its 28 points in the first two quarters. In the second half, the Red Devils made only 2 of 10 treys. Moss led Neah Bay with 18 points, while Munyagi had 17 and Doherty scored 14. As a team, the Red Devils made only 20 of 60 shots from the field. They were playing their first game of the season, and many players are less than two weeks removed from playing in the 1B state football semifinals. “A lot of it, I think, has to do with fatigue,” Neah Bay coach Stan Claplanhoo. “Kids get tired, you know? And they’re in football shape. It will take us a couple weeks. “When you’re tired, things start to fall apart a little bit. Your legs go, and your shot goes.” Despite all that, the Red Devils stayed close to the Wolves the
entire game. Sequim’s largest lead of the game was eight points in the fourth quarter, but 27 seconds later Neah Bay had cut that down to four points. “We did pretty good. We played to the end, kids fought hard,” Claplanhoo said. “We need to work a little bit on watching for those man-to-man back cuts, but we played hard.” The Red Devils play at Taholah tonight. Sequim (2-1) plays at Port Townsend (0-3) on Monday. Sequim 65, Neah Bay 60 Neah Bay Sequim

Neah: Guard play helps Red Devils CONTINUED FROM A11 As the Wolves’ defense backed off Johnson in anticipation of her driving the ball closer to the hoop, she casually dribbled forward and launched a long 3 that swished to give Neah Bay a 10-7 lead. “She’ll do that. She’ll do that. She does it in practice all the time,” Tony McCaulley said. “And it’s a shot from there, she’s not just throwing it up.” Neah Bay never trailed again. Sequim never really got going. “We just didn’t come out ready to play the first half and it was hard to catch up,” Wolves coach Justine Wagner said. Sequim did finish the first half strong, however. The Red Devils opened up a 17-10 lead with 2:32 remaining in the half.
The Wolves responded with their best stretch of the game, scoring six consecutive points, capped by two free throws by Jordan McMinn that made it 17-16 after Johnson was called for an intentional foul. After Jessica Greene hit a 3 for Neah Bay, Christiansen followed a miss by Bentz in the final seconds to make it 20-18 at halftime. The Red Devils, though, pulled away in the third quarter with runs of 6-0, 5-0 and 6-0 that grew their lead to 39-25 going into the fourth. They added another 7-0 run to start the fourth that gave them their largest advantage of the game, 46-25. From the start of the second half through the first 3 minutes, 30 seconds of the fourth quarter, Neah Bay outscored Sequim 26-7.
The Red Devils mixed in a fullcourt press with a 2-3 zone in the second half to fluster the Wolves. “We flashed our press on and off, and it worked good when we did it,” McCaulley said. “Our zone played pretty well. We had to [play zone] because they were bigger than us.” Sequim made 11 of 49 shots from the field, while Neah Bay made 19 of 45. “We just made more shots and I thought we out-hustled them, you know, when it comes right down to it,” McCaulley said. “Especially our guard play, our guard play was better than theirs, I thought; we handled the ball a little better.” Johnson led the Red Devils with 15 points. Gina McCaulley added 11, Jessica Greene had seven and Vonte Aguirre and
Holly Greene each scored six points. Miller was Sequim’s top scorer with eight points, while Christiansen finished with seven and Adrienne Haggerty had six. The Wolves (1-2) return to action Monday at home against Port Townsend (0-4). Neah Bay, which opens the season with five straight road games, plays at Taholah tonight.

took my hypothesis and executed.” Seattle went on to win the game with a field goal in overtime, finish the season 13-3 and march to its first Super Bowl championship, and the Seahawks continue to be one of the NFL’s premier teams. Sherman picked up firstteam All-Pro selections both that season and the following one. Houston’s season fell apart as it finished with 14 straight losses en route to a league-worst 2-14 record, and the Texans remain stuck in the middle of the NFL pack. It’s been an even worse path for Schaub. Schaub was in his seventh season as Houston’s starting quarterback, leading the league in passing yards in 2009.
“It was one of [the defining moments of the season],” said Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner, who escorted Sherman into the end zone. “It was definitely an exciting play. Down, come back, win, it was definitely a fun game for us.”
‘Result of preparation’ Sherman said he knew the play was coming. “It was definitely a result of preparation,” Sherman said. “It’s a play we saw multiple times, that we knew they run in that part of the field with the ball on that hash, the down and distance was perfect. It was a great call by the coordinator, it was a great read by me. It was a bit of a gamble, but an educated guess. I
However, Sherman’s pick-six was the third straight game in which Schaub had an interception returned for a touchdown, tying the league record. Schaub threw another pick-six the next week against San Francisco — on his first pass attempt of the game — to grab the record for his own. He was benched midway through the season and hasn’t been a team’s No. 1 option since. But Schaub’s back-up status hasn’t stopped him from throwing pick-sixes. He’s had a pick-six in both of his starts since taking over for Baltimore starter Joe Flacco, who suffered a season-ending knee injury, and Schaub finds himself riding yet another three-game streak of throwing interceptions that were
returned for TDs. If he throws another pick-six Sunday against Seattle, he will match his own dubious NFL record. The Washington Post calculated the chances of a player twice throwing picksixes in four consecutive games at about one-in46-million. Sherman played his role in creating Schaub’s picksix distinction, and if Schaub were to accomplish that incredible feat of throwing pick-sixes in four straight games a second time, there would be no more appropriate person on the other end than Sherman.

Loggers lose but improve vs. Sequim JV Texans’ J.J. Watt isn’t BY MICHAEL CARMAN
Preps
PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
JOYCE — Crescent hung with the Sequim junior varsity boys basketball team for much of the game before tiring late in a 59-29 loss. “Sequim shot the heck out of the ball and we only shot 35 percent,” Loggers coach Chris Ferrier said. “We kind of ran out of gas in the fourth quarter and that stretched the final score out a little, but it was a very competitive game.” Crescent trailed 16-12 after one quarter and 28-19 at halftime before the Wolves added to their lead in the second half. Ferrier said he was pleased with the growth he saw from his team. “The guys flat out competed for 32 minutes,” Ferrier said. “Our guys are really buying into a new system and playing unselfishly. “Lots of room to improve, but it’s a season-long process and we are making progress.” McCabe Story led the Loggers with 10 points and six rebounds. KC Spencer added 10 more points and Neil Peppard led Crescent in rebounding with

Freshman Ryan McCoy posted a double-double for Clallam Bay, scoring 21 points and grabbing 10 rebounds. McCoy also notched three assists, three steals and a block. “He has a pretty decent shot on him,” Bruins coach Kelly Gregory said. “He runs the court well and he’s not afraid to get out there. None of the freshman are afraid.” Senior Alan Greene scored 18 points and led Clallam Bay with seven steals. Greene also added three rebounds and three assists. “He was all over the place for us,” Gregory said.
“He had a great game. He starts smelling blood and you can almost see the eyes get big on the other team’s players.” Kyle Keys added 14 points, four rebounds, three assists and two steals for the Bruins, and Dakotah Cowdrey grabbed nine rebounds and scored six points. “We never really pressed them [defensively],” Gregory said. “We just stayed on them defensively pretty good. “Our ball pressure was really good, and it was hard for them to get anything going.” Clallam Bay (2-0) hosts Rainier Christian tonight.
Ferrier said. “The ladies are starting to understand some concepts new to them and are adjusting accordingly. “[We] more than doubled our output on the offensive end and were more competitive rebounding.” Leonie Hofmann led Crescent with four points and Alyssa Hutto notched three points.

worried about teams targeting broken hand THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
HOUSTON — Houston star defensive end J.J. Watt isn’t worried about people trying to come after him Sunday to take advantage of his broken left hand. “Let them try,” Watt said. “I mean, what? The opposing players come after me every week with every type of thing in the book you can think of. So feel free, go ahead come at me. I’ll take advantage of whatever you try to do. “It’s my job to get to the quarterback. That’s what I do. You can try and take advantage of whatever you want to take advantage of.” Watt broke his left hand in practice Wednesday, but said he’ll play Sunday. Watt, who leads the NFL with 13½ sacks, had a black cast covering his left hand and wrist on Thursday. The Texans (6-6) host the New England Patriots (10-2) on Sunday night.

St. Louis stadium ST. LOUIS — The effort to keep the NFL in St. Louis cleared a major hurdle Thursday, when a committee of city aldermen approved a financing plan for a new $1 billion stadium. The Ways and Means Committee backed the plan by a 7-2 vote. A final vote isn’t expected until next week — ahead of a Dec. 30 deadline imposed by the NFL for the three cities whose teams want to move to Los Angeles. Owners of the Rams, the San Diego Chargers and the Oakland Raiders all have proposed relocation, perhaps as early as next season. In an interview Thursday with Bernie Miklasz on radio station WXOS-FM, NFL Executive Vice President Eric Grubman said the city “will fall short of having a compelling proposal that would attract the Rams.”

It’s not just distracted drivers . . . Walkers also pose threat to self, others BY JANE E. BRODY
W
HILE DISTRACTED DRIVING has commanded lots of attention (albeit not a commensurate amount of correction), another digital hazard — distracted walking — is on the rise, with sometimes disastrous consequences. We’ve all seen it, and often felt it, as people looking down to text, tweet, read or play games on their smartphones crash into us, typically as we walk in a straight line and they don’t. A study by Eric M. Lamberg and Lisa M. Muratori at Stony Brook University found that distracted walkers veer off course by as much as 61 percent while texting and walking. When about to collide with a distracted walker, I used to politely say, “Excuse me,” to get the person’s attention. But I’ve become so annoyed by this behavior that I now harshly proclaim, “Watch where you’re going!” My friends of a certain age are frankly scared that they will be knocked down and injured by down a flight of stairs, tripping over a curb, walking into a glass a distracted walker. door or falling into a fountain or swimming pool.

Half the millennials said they considered distracted walking “embarrassing — in a funny way,” which suggests they don’t really think it’s all that serious. The survey, conducted for the academy by Ipsos Public Affairs in October, found that among residents in eight major cities, New Yorkers were most likely to consider distracted walking a serious issue (86 percent), but they were also more likely to walk while distracted than those in the seven other cities. “I see a lot of folks who were injured when they tripped on a curb, walked into a pothole or were hit by a car they didn’t see, though they rarely admit they were distracted by their phones,” said Dr. Claudette M. Lajam, an orthopedic surgeon at NYU Langone Medical Center and the Hospital for Joint Diseases. “Yet you know many were because when they’re in my office and should be interacting with me, all they’re doing is looking at their phones or answering a call.” Her advice: “Look where you’re walking.

Peninsula Voices Most of us are living on fixed incomes. We’re scared about the future. Many of us have lost our homes, and others are barely hanging on.

It is very good news for Port Angeles and the Strait of Juan de Fuca that the drilling rig will not be based here. Drilling and shipping of oil are accidents that will happen, and we all know it. We need to be focused on clean energy, not oil. We need to be part of cleaning up the Earth, not looking for short-term profits. Shell No. Kathleen Ninneman, Port Angeles

that multitasking is both possible and safe, Lajam echoed the warning issued by a number of experts that “you can’t really pay attention to more than one thing at a time.” That, the experts say, is how the human brain evolved, and to think otherwise is a recipe for disaster. Teenagers, however, rarely see it as a problem. Multitasking is central to their world. They talk, text and listen to music all at the same time. VEN IF NOT USING A smartphone, my 15-year-old E grandsons think they can stay tuned to music on noise-blocking headphones, watch for traffic and cross the street at the same time. What, I wonder, might happen if they intersect with a distracted driver? The orthopedic surgeons academy, which has joined other safety conscious organizations with a public service announcement called “Digital Deadwalkers,” noted that the busy holiday season is prime time for distracted walking incidents. To help pedestrians stay injury free while afoot, it suggests: ■ When using headphones, keep the volume low enough to
be able to hear surrounding traffic. ■ Stay focused on the people, objects and obstacles in front of and around you. Window shoppers are especially prone to pedestrian collisions. ■ Don’t jaywalk. Use crosswalks, and obey traffic signals. Be especially aware of bicycles coming your way. ■ Look ahead of you, not down, when stepping on or off a curb or approaching stairs or escalators. ■ Stay alert to vehicles pulling in or out of parking lots, especially in winter months when it gets dark early (to which I would add, wear reflective or at least light-colored outer clothing so drivers and cyclists can see you better). ■ If you find it necessary to make or take a call or send a text while walking, stop, step out of the flow of pedestrian and vehicular traffic, and resume walking only when the task is completed. My addendum to subway riders: Don’t stop at the top, bottom or in the middle of a stairway to take or make a text or call lest a fellow passenger trip over you.

In this way, we would be able to see how you manage the funds and what we’re getting for our money. The thing is that in this retirement community, a lot of us are old. When you’re old, sometimes you get smarter. One piece of wisdom is that without fail, when people are given enormous amounts of “other people’s money” to spend, what you get is waste, fraud and abuse. Just look at Washington, D.C. So ease our minds, ask for less, pass a new, much smaller bond and get to work on the schools. Allyson Mason, Sequim

GOP, guns, abortion THE PRESIDENTIAL RACE has degenerated to the point where I am going to attempt to cheer you up by talking about abortion and guns. And state legislatures. We Gail do not, as a nation, devote a Collins whole lot of attention to what happens in state capitols, although I personally enjoy those fights about selecting an official rock or state muffin. In recent years, one of the most popular activities in many legislatures has been finding new ways to expand the right to bear arms in places like schools (Utah) or bars (Tennessee) or airports (Georgia). The other is tromping on reproductive rights. I am telling you all this as a lead-in to a fascinating bill that was recently proposed in the Missouri House of Representatives. It would treat Missourians seeking to buy firearms the same way it treats Missourians seeking to end a pregnancy. “For instance, there would be a 72-hour waiting period,” said the sponsor, Rep. Stacey Newman. Missouri has piled so many unnecessary requirements on abortion providers that it’s down to one clinic in St. Louis. Newman didn’t attempt to limit the state to one gun store; her bill just requires that residents buy their guns at a licensed dealer located at least 120 miles from their homes. After cooling their heels in a local motel for three days, the prospective buyers would have to listen to a lecture about the medical risks associated with firearms and view pictures of people with fatal gun wounds. Most Missouri lawmakers regard themselves as pro-life.
Therefore, Newman feels, they ought to want to do something about the fact that St. Louis and Kansas City both rank in the top 10 American cities for firearm deaths. “It was one way to get people’s attention,” she said. Nobody thinks her bill is going to pass — or even get a hearing in the Republican-dominated legislature. Newman says the odds are far more favorable for proposed legislation that would allow people to carry concealed weapons on college campuses and require that women who want abortions get permission from the man who impregnated them. We live in hard times, people. But when you think of Missouri, give a fond mental shout-out to Stacey Newman. And remember her lesson: When it comes to civil liberties, there’s currently far more concern in this country over the right to buy weapons than there is over a woman’s right to control her own body. All the major Republican candidates for president are pretty much on the same page when it comes to firearms. So much so that you probably can’t guess which one of them said: “I used to think they needed to be registered, but if you register them, they just come and find you and take your guns.” OK, it was Ben Carson. All the major candidates are also opposed to giving women any rights whatsoever when it comes to terminating a pregnancy. But lately, there’s been disagreement on the far edge of the issue: whether bans should include an exception for rape and incest victims. It came up at a recent gathering of a group of donors and activists called the Republican Jewish Coalition. (This was the same event where Donald Trump told his Jewish audience: “I’m a negotiator, like you folks . . . Is there anyone in this room who doesn’t nego-
tiate deals?”) Sen. Ted Cruz, the up-and-coming darling of social conservatives, was asked about his abortion positions, and he rambled on about the evils of contraceptives without ever acknowledging that he does oppose giving any leeway in the cases of rape or incest. Cruz is also, of course, an avid protector of all things gun-related and recently theorized that the man arrested in the mass shooting at a Planned Parenthood clinic was a “transgender leftist activist.” Ah, Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz. “If the nominee of the Republican Party will not allow an exception for rape and incest, they will not win,” predicted Sen. Lindsey Graham, who followed Cruz to the podium. The presumption is that voters will demand some show of mercy, but there are plenty of women who are not victims of rape whose stories are equally heartrending. Girls who become pregnant before they’re old enough to know what they’re doing. Poor women with several children and two jobs whose birth control method fails. Women who desperately want a baby but discover the fetus they’re carrying is too deformed to survive after birth. Most Americans don’t want to prioritize; they’d leave the whole matter to the women and their doctors. But the current debate on the Republican side has slid so far to the right that the moderates are people who do not want to force rape victims to carry the fetus to full term. Or allow concealed weapons in kindergarten. Maybe what this campaign needs is a 72-hour waiting period for everything.

National security profiling is no-brainer CALM DOWN AND think, America. While everyone’s undies are in a bunch Michelle Malkin over Donald Trump’s proposal for a Muslim immigration moratorium, it is undeniable in a time of “heightened alert” — when violent jihadists have no problem targeting their enemies here and around the world — that national security profiling is imperative to our survival. Yes, that means taking politically incorrect criteria such as ethnicity, nationality and religion into account when battling radical Islamist throat-slitters, suicide bombers and hijackers who incinerate children on airplanes traveling to Disneyland, plant bombs in their shoes, underwear, soda bottles and belts, and shoot up concert halls, restaurants, malls, Army bases and social services centers. Yes, that means unapologetic government tracking of Arab and Muslim foreign students, highrisk Muslim refugees, Muslim chaplains serving in the military and in prisons, and Arab and Muslim pilots and flight students. Yes, that means taking immigration status into account to apply increased, common-sense scrutiny of temporary visa holders from jihadist breeding grounds. All temporary visa-holders — foreign students, tourists, businesspeople and guest workers — are here by privilege, not by right. Their visas can and should be revoked whenever necessary to protect national security. It is not “un-American” to bar any new religious visas for dangerous Muslim clerics or to freeze visas issued to travelers from official state sponsors of terrorism. It is not contrary to our “values” to prioritize the immediate removal of all illegal visa over-
stayers and deportation fugitives from terror-sponsoring and terror-supporting nations. Should we have a special registration system for visa holders from jihadist strongholds? Hell, yes. After 9/11, the feds put in place a National Security EntryExit Registration System that required higher scrutiny and common-sense registration requirements for individuals from jihad-friendly countries including Afghanistan, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Syria and Yemen, as well as other at-risk countries. The basic components included a more rigorous application process in light of the shoddy visa questionnaires and undetected overstays of the 9/11 hijackers; 30 extra minutes of interviewing at ports of entry; a digital fingerprint check and inperson registration after they arrived in the interior of the country; and verification of departure once they exited. The targeted registration of certain foreign nationals already in the country (temporary visa holders including students, tourists and businesspeople) resulted in the detection and apprehension of at least 330 known foreign criminals and three known terrorists who had attempted to come into the country at official ports of entry — including suspected al-Qaida operatives who were caught trying to enter the U.S. after their fingerprints matched ones lifted by our military officials from papers found in Afghanistan caves. But as I’ve reported previously, grievance-mongering identity groups, the American Civil Liberties Union, the late Ted Kennedy, and open-borders Republicans could not stand the idea of an effective national security profiling database. The Obama administration, which now disingenuously calls on Americans to be “vigilant,” suspended the narrowly targeted NSEERS program in 2011 to appease the “Islamophobia!” shriekers. Anti-profiling radicals want it both ways. They damn federal
homeland security officials when they gather intelligence based on threat factors and behavioral factors — and damn them in hindsight if they don’t. FBI agents are condemned as bigots when they attempt the most modest of surveillance measures, and they are damned as bumblers when they fail to act on information gathered through those means. Perhaps you’ve forgotten how Muslim groups balked after 9/11 when federal investigators went to mosques to ask about knowledge of terrorist attacks. What were they supposed to do — go to Catholic nunneries and Buddhist temples instead? Face it: Religious profiling is an essential tool in combating Muslim extremists carrying out an eternal religious crusade to kill nonbelievers and establish a global caliphate. If Catholic, Protestant, Jewish or Hindus were financing and training a worldwide network of bloodthirsty jihadi operatives, America would be thoroughly justified — obligated — to gather basic intelligence data on relevant churches, congregations or temples. Those who moan about any form of ethnic, religious and nationality profiling now will be the first to attack federal officials for not enough when another terrorist attack occurs. And let’s remember amid this latest outbreak of anti-profiling hysteria that the same grievance groups who object to taking ethnicity, religion and national origin into account during wartime zealously defend discriminatory racial and ethnic classifications to ensure “diversity” on college campuses, guarantee government contracts for minorities, and achieve manufactured “parity” in police and fire departments. In suicidal America, there’s always a “compelling government interest” for using discriminatory classifications — unless that compelling interest happens to be the nation’s very survival.

Santa, Yuletide Ball highlight PT weekend BY CHARLIE BERMANT AND DIANE URBANI DE LA PAZ PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT TOWNSEND — Many people will spend the second-tolast weekend before Christmas fighting traffic on the way to a generic mall, while Port Townsend residents can enjoy large doses of holiday cheer. “You know the people here. They are your neighbors,” said Cindy Madsen, who is helping to organize the weekend’s events. “It’s not a mall, where they have Santa Claus and you stand in line for half an hour to sit on his lap for 30 seconds, get your picture taken by an elf and move on.” A Port Townsend Christmas, Madsen said, is not a “cookie-cutter experience.” This weekend features four unique events that are not available in the big city. All events take place Saturday. STEVE MULLENSKY/FOR PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

The Peninsula Men’s Gospel Singers will give Christmas concerts in Sequim on Saturday and Port Angeles on Sunday.
O come all ye to pair of gospel singers’ matinees BY DIANE URBANI DE LA PAZ PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
Small ensembles, soloists, new arrangements of traditional songs and singalong caroling are all part of the Peninsula Men’s Gospel Singers’ Christmas concerts, open to everyone this weekend. Founding director Michael Rivers will lead the 18-voice choir in two matinees: ■ 3 p.m. Saturday at Dungeness Valley Lutheran Church, 925 N. Sequim Ave., Sequim. ■ 3 p.m. Sunday at the Port Angeles Senior & Community Center, 328 E. Seventh St.
Along with music that’s brand-new for these concerts, the men will sing favorite songs from past years, baritone Michael Craig promises. To add even more, Scott Anders of Port Angeles, now a music student at Shoreline Community College, will play Bach’s Prelude No. 21, trombone soloist Mike McBride and the choir’s pianist, Penny Hall, will offer “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” and oboist John Zener will join the choir for “Love Came Down at Christmas.” Both concerts bring three original arrangements from Rivers: “Away in a Manger,” “Joy to the World” and, Craig added, a special ver-
sion of “Silent Night.”
Audience sing-along Anders will come back to help with the audience sing-along, which will go from “What Child Is This?” and “O Holy Night” to “O Come All Ye Faithful.” As ever, the singers will have Karen Coles providing sign-language interpretation at both performances. To find out more about the ecumenical choir, its CDs and its forthcoming concerts, visit www.pm gospelsingers.com.

Early in “The Sound of Music” at Seattle’s 5th Avenue Theatre, the von Trapp children perform for a fancy party. Among the guests are Sequim actors Carol Swarbrick, seated at left second from right, and her real-life husband Jim Dries, standing behind her.
‘Sound of Music’ gives a ‘spiritual lift’ for audience BY DIANE URBANI DE LA PAZ PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
SEATTLE — “The Sound of Music” is a story of refugees, a tale that is as powerful today as when it took the stage and screen 50 years ago, say Sequim’s Carol Swarbrick and Jim Dries, actors appearing now in the lavish production at Seattle’s 5th Avenue Theatre. With that famous almost-nun Maria, the gallant Capt. von Trapp and Rodgers and Hammerstein’s score, “Sound” is a romp — and it’s inspired by real events: As Nazism spread into Austria in the late 1930s, the von Trapps fled to the United States, where they had the chance to begin a new life. The story means much to Carol and Jim, who recently traveled to Europe and saw for themselves some of the places ravaged in World War II. Now the couple, who have been working in theater together for many years, are thrilled to be part of the Seattle “Sound.” Carol plays Sister Berthe, the mistress of the novices who sings, among other songs, “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?” Jim is a guest at a von Trapp family party,
oday, Carol feels an intensity in this production, an immediacy beyond what people might recall from the 1965 movie with Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer.
T
where Carol also appears. This portrayal of Sister Berthe isn’t the first time Carol has put on a habit. She had the role in “The Sound of Music” at the 5th Avenue a decade ago, as well as at the Ordway Theater in St. Paul, Minn., some years back. Oh, and she also played a nun on television’s “Murder, She Wrote” series during the early 1990s.
immediacy Today, Carol feels an intensity in this production, an immediacy beyond what people might recall from the 1965 movie with Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer. “It’s live, and it’s true,” Carol said of the show. And as for the singing, well, this is not your typical Broadway-style fare. The 5th Avenue brought in Joseph Crnko — the cast knows him as Joe — to teach the “nuns” how to sound. “When we’re singing ‘A-men,’ for example, it’s not just the notes that change,”
Carol said. “It’s a spiritual lift,” Joe taught them. It helps that Joe is director of the Seattle Symphony Chorale and the Northwest Boychoir. It also helps that Sister Laura, a local nun, likewise came to work with Carol and her sisters of the stage, teaching them about life in an abbey. Sister Berthe, you see, is not angry at young Maria for falling in love with Georg von Trapp. Sister Berthe “is Maria’s advocate,” Carol said. And the nun’s path, it becomes clear, is not this woman’s path. For Jim too, Maria’s story is a moving one. Kirsten deLohr Helland, who portrays her, “brings such freshness and joy to the role,” he said. The Seattle actress plunges into her part with a particularly un-Julie Andrews gusto. At one point during a run-through, tears came to Jim’s eyes, so moved was he by “The Sound of
Music’s” message. The show is no documentary; the facts of the von Trapps’ lives differ a bit from what happens on stage and screen.
A family’s love Ultimately, however, “Sound” is about a family’s love and how it sustained Maria, Georg and their kids, as they relocated first to Pennsylvania and then to Vermont, where they established the Von Trapp Family Lodge. The story is also about “the need to open your arms,” Jim said, “when people are having trouble.” For tickets and more information, see www.5thavenue.org or phone 206-625-1900 or 888-5TH-4TIX. Prices range from $20 for same-day children’s and student tickets to $29, $60, $100 and up, depending on seating. Matinee and evening performances of “The Sound of Music” are slated through Jan. 3 — except Dec. 25 and Jan. 1 — at the 5th Avenue Theatre, 1308 Fifth Ave. in Seattle.

Diana came to Crestwood post surgically for removal of a left frontal lobe brain tumor. She was experiencing progressive weakness and confusion, along with word finding difficulties when she was hospitalized. She arrived with weakness specifically on the side of her body; she was unable to write or tie her shoes as she once had. Within days, Diane was able to maneuver in her wheel chair around the facility, always smiling and willing to work with her occupational, speech and physical therapists. She eventually graduated to using a rolling walker, improvising her balance and endurance in standing to complete valued tasks such as jamming with her husband, Ron, as he would frequently bring in their music book and play Bluegrass tunes. They have spent many years together attending Bluegrass festivals and it was evident that as Diane progressed in her therapy, she was able to easier engage in playing her baritone ukulele or guitar as Ron strummed his mandolin by her side, both singing to their hearts content, bringing smiles and tapping toes to those who stopped to listen. Within a few weeks, Diane progressed to walking without an assistive device and was found many times in occupational therapy doing the “electric slide,” confidently completing the grapevine with ease. By the end of her time at Crestwood, she easily was able to care for herself, completing her basic routine with independence, accessing medical appointments with her husband and socializing within the facility with ease. We wish her the best of luck and will miss her!!

Make the play for Jesus
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FROM
ON HIGH
Rabbi Shmuel Havlin climbs up a ladder in front of Hanukkah candles made out of Lego blocks in the hall of the JosephCarlebach school in Hamburg, Germany, on Wednesday. According to the Jewish educational center, students have built the world’s highest Hanukkah Menorah, at about 19.1 feet high, from 30,000 Lego blocks.
IN TWO DAYS as I write this, it will be Thanksgiving; two weeks after you read this, it will be Christmas Day. I have to agree with the late Andy Williams that this is “the most wonderful time of the year.” It brings out the best and the worst of us — our patience tested, our accounts maxed out but the little child in us aching to escape to the land of candy canes and twinkling lights, and ultimately joy in recognizing the birth of Jesus Christ. For much of society, Jesus is distant, a myth, a figure that is too controversial to reckon with and deal with. Why bother when life seems pretty good? Besides, won’t I have to give up stuff or change my habits if I kind of start to like the guy? You’ve heard it, but you will hear it again: Jesus likes and loves you far more than you could ever love him. There is nothing you can do to have him love you more, but what he wants is for you to seek him more. I picture him sometimes as a wide-open receiver in a football game. The quarterback scrambles as 300-pound men chase him, his vision and normally cool demeanor obscured. He dumps the pass off
ISSUES OF FAITH or runs of Acheson out bounds . . . and the star receiver stands alone and open, a touchdown just waiting to happen. There will be another play, a chance . . . or maybe not. One of my favorite pilots out at the Puget Sound Pilot station once said to me that “indecision is the key to flexibility.” He was joking. Indecisiveness is not the hallmark of captains handling 1,000-foot ships, though the statement is essentially truthful. We are exercising our flexibility by not really making a choice. God the Father, Jesus the son, with the Holy Spirit — this mighty Trinity — wants us to make a choice. In a particularly nice turn, God gives us free will. We all have this. At some point — let’s say death — we will certainly revisit the decisions we have made in this life, our soul being eternally grateful if we attempted to get to know the man nailed
Mike
to the cross, this man who allowed himself to be nailed. “I came so that they may have life and have it more abundantly,” Jesus said (John 10:10). And then later, as his ministry and life drew to a close, “My Kingdom is not of this world” (John 18:36). A more abundant life on Earth, eternal rest in heaven, covering all the bases effortlessly but not without our cooperation, and there’s the hard truth: our participation. Children know when you are faking it, and so does God. Wouldn’t you love a more abundant life? That awesome feeling you can’t quite explain is the grace of God. Open your heart to this; now would be a great time. “For to us a child is born, to us a son is given . . . and his name will be called ‘Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace’” (Isaiah 9:6). Jesus wants our attention, and if you are the quarterback with the ball, that larger-than-life figure in the end zone is your cornerstone to a more peaceful, perfect life.

Yuletide: Train rides are set from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Academic honors
CONTINUED FROM B1
STUDENT
Kiwanis Choo Choo rides take place from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. The ride begins and ends at Pope Marine Park, traveling through downtown and uptown on a route subject to the driver’s whim, according to Mari Mullen, Port Townsend Main Street executive director. The cost is $5 per person, with proceeds funding art programs in the Port Townsend School District. Santa Claus, who rode the Choo Choo to last week’s tree lighting, is not scheduled for an appearance, but this could change, according to Mullen. “Santa may make an appearance, you never know,” she said. “You never know where he is going to be this time of year. He’s busy and is hard to pin down.” The jolly elf, Mullen said, “can show up at the drop of a Santa hat.”
OF THE MONTH
Payton Glasser, right, a sophomore at Sequim High School was honored as the Student of the Month at the Sequim Elks Lodge’s November social night dinner. Glasser, pictured with Doug Metz of the Lodge, was chosen for his high academic achievements and involvement in school activities. His studies include honors chemistry, Spanish II, photo, honors world literature and pre calculus, and he is a member of Honors Society and the Sequim High boys basketball team. Glasser’s future plans are to attend a four-year college or university and become a teacher. He is the son of Greg and Kim Glasser of Sequim.
Home Tour The Victorian Holiday Home Tour takes place from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, including two homes that are not normally accessible to the public, Madsen said. Participants can get up close and personal with the Ann Starrett Mansion, 744 Clay St., built in 1889, and the 1891 O’Rear Home, 1932 Washington St., which was originally built as a carriage house for the adjacent Consulate Inn. Refreshments, music and discussions with homeowners and docents are included. Tickets cost $15 per person (cash or check only) and are available from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Vintage Hardware, 2000 W. Sims Way.
ROTARY STUDENT OF THE MONTH Sequim High School senior Daniel Harker is honored as Student of the Month for November by Sequim Noon Rotary. Harker, who will graduate in June, is president of the Honor Society, vice president of both the Executive (all school) Associated Student Body and the International Club, as well as a member of the Link Crew. He has submitted his application to attend the Air Force Academy in hopes of being commissioned a U.S. Air Force officer upon graduation. He is the son of Colleen and Scott Harker, who are employees of the Sequim and Port Angeles school districts, respectively.

The Brass Screw Confederacy, that steampunkish bunch, is hosting the event, so organizer Kimberly Torres said steampunk and Victorian attire — or anything glamorous — is desirable. The festivities get underway at 8 p.m. with informal swing-dance lessons on tap along with music provided by the Olympic Express Big Band. Ball-goers can plan on James Brown’s “I Feel Good,” Aretha Franklin’s “Chain of Fools” and Stevie Wonder’s “Signed, Sealed, Delivered,” plus big-band numbers such as “In the Mood” and “Mambo Caliente.” Advance tickets are $15 at www.brass-screw.org and $20 at the door Saturday night. Dessert will be available, as will the no-host bar. Torres and the rest of the Brass Screw group fully expect a visit from Father Christmas as well as his nemesis, that mischievous Krampus character.
“There will be shenanigans between those two,” Torres predicted. Father Christmas also will make a few naughty-or-nice judgment calls, just for fun. “We wanted something, amid the dreary December, to make people happy,” she said, adding that Victorian top hats, bowlers, goggles and corsets are some of the accessories appropriate for the ball. “You can wear whatever you want,” Madsen said. “Anything that you want to dance in.” Madsen said the day’s events are fairly intimate, with 40 to 75 people expected at the Yuletide Salon and 50 to 75 people at the Yuletide Ball.

DEAR ABBY: I made a big mistake three years ago. When I found out my husband was cheating on me, I became vengeful and sought revenge. I ended up sleeping with my sister-in-law’s boyfriend to get back at my husband and at her for some things she did in the past. It took my pain away — for a bit. Abby, I am not this kind of person. I’m not an evil, conniving tramp. I regret what I did every day, and I feel like garbage. My sister-in-law and I haven’t spoken since I decided to tell her the truth. My husband and I (miraculously) were able to work through our problems, and our relationship is stronger than ever. My sister-in-law and her boyfriend have remained together, and I don’t speak to him anymore either. What can I do to earn forgiveness? Is this even forgivable? How can I mend this family I helped tear apart? Only Human in Houston

whether they consider your playing Van Buren Prince Charming to be inappropriate. At 6, I see no harm in it. When Becca is 8 or 9, your wife might have a point. Of course, by then she might prefer to be Supergirl rather than a princess, and have other objectives than being a bride. As to kissing your granddaughter hello or goodbye, that’s perfectly appropriate regardless of her age. And when you do, I seriously doubt anyone will mistake you for a predator.
Abigail
Dear Abby: I married the woman of my dreams two months ago. I asked my father to be my best man and he accepted, but he didn’t fulfill his duties. There was no bachelor party, no best man speech, and he and my mother left the reception after only an hour. I was hurt and disappointed. I have avoided talking to him since. Should I tell him how much he hurt me or just try to forgive and forget? Let-Down Groom in Macon, Ga.
Dear Abby: My granddaughter, “Becca,” just turned 6. One of her favorite things to do is role-play, which includes the prince (me) kissing her, sometimes at the end of a wedding ceremony. Becca also likes to sit on my lap. My wife thinks I shouldn’t allow her to sit there and that the interaction isn’t appropriate. She says I might be mistaken for some kind of predator. It hurts me and Becca when I tell her we must find some other playtime scenario. I think it’s harmless. Who’s right here? My wife or me? Is there an age a granddaughter reaches when this kind of interaction becomes taboo? What about giving her a goodbye kiss when she departs? Baffled Grandpa in El Paso
Dear Groom: I vote for doing both, if you can. When your father accepted the invitation, he might not have understood that being your best man would involve more than standing beside you at the altar. Why he and your mother would leave the reception early is puzzling, but it might have meant that for some reason they felt uncomfortable there. You need to explore that.

The Department of the Navy (Navy) gives notice that an EA has been prepared and an Environmental Impact Statement is not required for Aboveground Shore Power to Ammunition Wharf at Naval Magazine (NAVMAG) Indian Island, Port Hadlock, Washington. Under the Preferred Alternative, the Navy will construct a new overhead loop electrical power distribution system on NAVMAG Indian Island and remove the existing leased temporary Mobile Utilities Support Equipment (MUSE) generator systems. The purpose of the proposed action is to supply permanent shore-based power to submarines while they are berthed at the NAVMAG Indian Island Ammunition Wharf. The proposed action is needed because the Navy’s Clean Air Act permit for the two existing diesel-powered generators was conditioned on their removal as the primary source of electricity at the Ammunition Wharf by September 30, 2016.

Joy and gingerbread: Second Weekend’s here BY DIANE URBANI
DE LA
PAZ
PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — A couple of parties, with distinct personalities, will start off Port Angeles’ Second Weekend art festivities tonight, so take your pick — or try them both. Then check out the other galleries participating in this
PS
monthly showcase of visual art and music around downtown. Here’s a sampling. ■ Second Friday Art Rock, aka 2FAR, stars local artist Brenna Bolton creating a piece on site tonight while the band Joy in Mudville plays at Bar N9ne, 229 W. First St. “I had the great pleasure of exploring art through the Run-
ning Start program at Peninsula College,” said Bolton, a Port Angeles native. She adds that she recently found her voice in the pen-andink medium, and tonight plans to explore figure drawing and geometric overlays. “I can’t wait to see what comes out,” she said. The music-art convergence starts
at 8 p.m., and the $3 cover charge supports the band and artist. ■ The Heatherton Gallery, on the ground floor of The Landing mall, 115 E. Railroad Ave., celebrates its member artists with a free reception tonight from 5:30 to 7:30. A potluck buffet, a visit from Santa Claus and smooth jazz by the BlueSkyz band are part of the event.
■ The Landing Artists’ Studio, also at The Landing mall, has its gingerbread village all set up just inside the mall’s front door. Visitors are invited to guess the population of gingerbread men for a small prize and check out the Christmas tree bedecked with handmade ornaments. TURN

‘A Christmas Festival’ this Saturday BY DIANE URBANI DE LA PAZ PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — Just back from leading concerts in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, maestro Jonathan Pasternack is ready for Christmas music in his adopted home town. Pasternack, a globetrotting conductor and the new music director of the Port Angeles Symphony, will take up his baton before the 66-piece orchestra for two concerts Saturday: First, the final dress rehearsal at 10 a.m. and then the evening concert at 7:30 p.m. As a prelude to the latter, Pasternack will give a short talk on the musical program at 6:40 p.m., and as always, the venue is the Port Angeles High School

At practice Monday night, the musicians were hard at work, filling an empty Port Angeles High School auditorium with the melodies of “Hark! The Herald Angels Sing,” “Silent Night,” “Joy to the World,” and other works from Leroy Anderson’s “A Christmas Festival.” The sound, with the horns, the percussion, the violins, oboes, flutes and cellos, is an expanding one, a long way from anything that comes out of a radio at this time of year. Along with “Christmas Festival,” the Symphony’s December concerts also have music that’s festive — but not always featured on Christmasy programs. On the itinerary: ■ “Wedding Day at Troldhaugen,” a work Edvard Grieg composed to celebrate his 25th wedding anniversary; ■ “Traditional Slavic Christmas Music” by Leopold Stokowski; ■ “Swan Lake Suite” by Piotr I. Tchaikovsky;
Fresh Seafood & Steaks Organic Free Range Vegan Vegetarian Beer, Wine & Spirits
■ Prelude to “Hansel and Gretel” by Englebert Humperdinck; ■ An instrumental version of the Hallelujah Chorus from Handel’s “Messiah;” ■ The Radetzky March by Johann Strauss Sr.; ■ A Christmas singalong, arranged by Thomas Kennedy and including “O Little Town of Bethlehem,” “Silent Night,” “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” and other carols. Pasternack looks forward to all of this, and notes that the Hallelujah Chorus will be a highlight. It is a brilliant, triumphant piece of music, he said: “a wonderful holiday concert selection, with or without the words being sung.” The chorus will be played, not sung this time — but the audience will have ample opportunity to lift their voices in the carol sing-along.

set of concerts led by Pasternack, the Brooklyn, N.Y.-born conductor hired earlier this year. Tuesday evening, Pasternack was across the ocean in Bulgaria, guiding the Plovdiv Philharmonic in a program of Beethoven, Prokofiev and Brahms. His engagement with that orchestra preceded his hiring by the Port Angeles Symphony, he wrote in an email to the Peninsula Daily News, and “the Port Angeles Symphony Orchestra board graciously supported my wish to honor the previous commitment.” In his stead, Pasternack added, “I was very fortunate that my wonderful colleague in Port Angeles, James Ray, was available to lead two rehearsals” of the orchestra.
