PORT ANGELES — The U.S. Forest Service is completing final draft responses to thousands of mostly negative comments directed at plans for expanded naval electronic warfare exercises over the North Olympic Peninsula, including Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest. But if you submitted one of the 3,397 correspondences on the $11.5 million Pacific Northwest Electronic Warfare Training Range project, don’t expect a response
specifically to your submission. Greg Wahl, Olympic National Forest environmental coordinator, said this week that the agency is writing final drafts of up to about 100 general responses to the thousands of comments submitted by Nov. 28.

Port Townsend looks for $3M credit line Water plant project prompts move BY CHARLIE BERMANT PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT TOWNSEND — The city is seeking to establish a $3 million line of credit to manage its cash flow during the construction of a new water treatment plant. “Having a line of credit will allow us to maintain a positive cash flow,” said Nora Mitchell, the city’s finance director. “We expect to have several invoices ranging from a few hundred thousand [dollars] to $3 million, and this will let us pay the bills in a timely fashion.”
The City Council unanimously approved seeking a line of credit at its meeting Monday. A second reading of the measure is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Jan. 19 in council chambers at historic City Hall, 540 Water St.
Funding sources The total cost of the project, which includes a filtration plant and a new reservoir, is estimated at $24 million, and the city has secured $25.5 million in funding sources, according to City Manager David Timmons. Many of these sources are man-
aged as reimbursements, where the city must provide proof of payment before the money is released. This can cause a gap of several weeks, which can result in late fees or interest fees, Timmons said. The interest for the line of credit is about equal to the potential late fees, he said, adding that failing to pay bills in a timely manner can decrease the city’s financial standing. Once the project is finished, the credit line will be shut down, Timmons said. Mitchell said terms and interest will be determined when the line of credit is approved in an agreement between the city and the lender.
“Having a line of credit will allow us to maintain a positive cash flow.” NORA MITCHELL Port Townsend finance director The new water facility is slated for completion in late October. It will be built in two phases: the main plant and a new storage reservoir to replace the current one, which is not earthquake-proof.
Not now publicly accessible The facility at 2087 20th St. is not now publicly accessible for security reasons, city officials have said. Public tours will be offered after it is completed.
The construction of the new facility is funded with a combination of grants and low-interest loans to be paid off within 20 years, along with a monthly capital surcharge fee. The monthly fee assesses each customer within city limits $18 and each outside the city $21.60. These rates will respectively increase to $24 and $28.80 in 2018. The fees will remain in place until the loan is paid off, Timmons said.

TNT axes its ‘Rizzoli & Isles’ show TNT IS ENDING the crime drama “Rizzoli & Isles” after its seventh season this summer. The procedural starring Angie Harmon and Sasha Alexander, which usually airs during the summer, has been one of TNT’s most popular programs. It features homicide detective Jane Rizzoli and medical examiner Maura Isles solving crimes in Boston. But there’s new management at the Turner Networks, with new boss Kevin Reilly favoring edgier fare and stories that develop over time, as opposed to those with individual stories that begin and end each week. “It had a good run,” Reilly said Thursday. “It felt like it was time.”

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
This image released by TNT shows Angie Harmon, left, and Sasha Alexander in a scene from “Rizzoli & Isles.” about Odom’s condition, saying it was his story to tell. Kardashian had filed for divorce from Odom, but she halted those proceedings after he was found unconscious last October, from an apparent overdose of cocaine and other drugs. “He’s doing amazing, and I’m so proud of the strength that he has had to fight that battle,” said Kardashian, part of the reality TV juggernaut that includes “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and, at one time, “Khloe and Lamar.” The little-known FYI channel is premiering “Kocktails With Khloe” on Jan. 20. The show, filmed in a replica of Kardashian’s
house, will feature celebrity guests and approximate dinner parties she throws at her home.
‘Tales’ to rise anew The 1950s-era comic book series “Tales From the Crypt” is being given another life on the TNT network. TNT said Thursday it was launching a new block of horror programming that will be curated by filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan. Its centerpiece will be new “Tales” stories produced by Shyamalan and his business partner, Ashwin Rajan. The two-hour horror block will begin airing in the fall. TNT will have long and short-form programming.

MUFTI MOHAMMED SAYEED, 79, a top elected pro-India leader of Kashmir, who tried to win over insurgent groups in the troubled region, died Thursday in a New Delhi hospital of pneumonia, his party leader said. Mr. Sayeed, who took over as the top elected official of the region in March last year, was Mr. Sayeed hospitalized in 2015 two weeks ago in the Indian capital. His death was announced by party leader and Kashmir state Education Minister Nayeem Akhter. Mr. Sayeed is survived by his wife, three daughters and a son. Mehbooba Mufti, one of his daughters, is expected to succeed him as the chief minister of the Indian portion of Kashmir. India and Pakistan have fought two wars over control of Kashmir, divided between them since 1947. Mr. Sayeed advocated a dialogue with Pakistan to settle the dispute, and sought to promote trade and travel between the divided parts of the Hima-
layan region. At the start of insurgency in the Indian portion of Kashmir in 1989, rebels abducted one of Sayeed’s daughters. He was India’s home minister then. His daughter was later freed in exchange for the Indian government releasing five militants from prison. Mr. Sayeed became the chief minister of the Indian portion of Kashmir, with the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party as a junior partner in the government after no single party won a clear majority in state elections.
__________ ANTON SRHOLEC, 86, a Slovak Roman Catholic priest who was persecuted by the communist regime, has died. His Slovak branch of the Salesians of Don Bosco said he died Thursday morning a year after he was diagnosed with lung cancer. He wasn’t allowed to study theology by the communist authorities in the former Czechoslovakia and spent 10 years in prisons, serving most of his time in the notorious uranium mines in Jachymov. He was ordained by
Pope Paul VI in 1970 but was banned under communism. After the anti-Communist Velvet Revolution, he focused on charity and created a center for homeless people.

A3 Briefly: Nation $122.6 billion budget for Calif. is proposed SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Gov. Jerry Brown proposed a $122.6 billion budget plan for California on Thursday that includes billions more in spending for education, health care and state infrastructure, increases the state rainy day fund to $8 billion and takes steps to pay down debts. “Relative to budgets of the past, this budget is in good shape,” Brown said of his 2016-17 spending plan. The budget also includes a Brown $1.1 billion compromise on a new tax on health insurers to replace one that will expire in June. The budget would keep tuition flat for another year at University of California and California State University schools, while a voter-approved minimum funding guarantee will send funding for public schools and community colleges soaring along with state tax revenues.
Surveillance lawsuit NEW YORK — The New York Police Department will tighten safeguards against illegal surveillance of Muslims in secret investigations of terror threats and install a civilian representative on an advisory committee that reviews the probes under the terms of a settlement of two high-profile civil rights lawsuits, lawyers
said Thursday. The announcement of a deal came after months of negotiations aimed at formally ending litigation over accusations that the nation’s largest police department had cast a shadow over Muslim communities with a covert campaign of religious profiling and illegal spying. The suits were among legal actions that followed reports by The Associated Press that revealed how city police infiltrated Muslim student groups, put informants in mosques and otherwise spied on Muslims as part of a broad effort to prevent terrorist attacks. “We are committed to strengthening the relationship between our administration and communities of faith so that residents of every background feel respected and protected,” Mayor Bill de Blasio said in a statement.
Mom back in Texas FORT WORTH, Texas — The mother of a fugitive teen who used an “affluenza” defense after killing four people in a drunken crash was returned to Texas on Thursday to face a charge of helping her son evade capture. Tonya Couch, who was deported from Mexico last week, arrived on a flight from Los Angeles and was taken to Tarrant County Jail in handcuffs and leg irons. She is expected to be arraigned today on a charge of hindering the apprehension of a felon. Her bond was set at $1 million. Authorities believe Couch and her 18-year-old son, Ethan Couch, fled Texas in November as prosecutors investigated whether Ethan Couch had violated his probation in the deadly 2013 drunken-driving wreck.

U.S. to recruit industry leaders to disrupt ISIS Discussion on how tech can stop terrorists BY JULIE PACE AND JOSH LEDERMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — With extremists finding fertile ground for recruitment online, the White House is dispatching top national security officials to Silicon Valley to seek the tech industry’s help in disrupting the Islamic State group and other terrorists. At a high-level session today, leaders from major technology and Internet companies are expected to discuss ways to use technology to stop terrorists from radicalizing people online and spurring them to violence, according to a meeting agenda obtained by The Associated Press.
Attorney General Loretta Lynch, FBI Director James Comey and Director of National Intelligence James Clapper are slated to attend the meeting, along with President Barack Obama’s chief of staff and his top counterterrorism adviser. The meeting in San Jose, Calif., comes as the Obama administration tries to beef up cooperation with social media groups and online companies whose platforms are often used by extremists to attract followers, disseminate their message and organize attacks. Obama said in a recent speech that he planned to “urge hightech and law enforcement leaders to make it harder for terrorists to use technology to escape from justice.” At today’s session, government officials plan to offer to tell technology experts how terrorists use technology, including encryption. They’ll also discuss ways the government and tech companies can “help others to create, pub-
lish, and amplify alternative content that would undercut ISIL,” the agenda says, using an alternative acronym for the Islamic State group. Another goal is to identify ways for law enforcement to better identify terrorists online and stop them from carrying out attacks. Increasingly, digital platforms have become tools of radicalization used by the Islamic State, a group Obama recently denounced as a “bunch of killers with good social media.” Slick online magazines, highly produced videos and social networks like Facebook and Twitter have all played roles in the group’s propaganda machine. After last month’s shooting in San Bernardino, Calif., Facebook found messages by 29-year-old Tashfeen Malik around the time of the attack that included a pledge of allegiance to the Islamic State group’s leader, although there were no indications the militants had directed the attack.
Briefly: World Man in fake explosives vest killed by police PARIS — A man wearing a fake explosives vest and wielding a butcher knife was shot to death by police outside a Paris police station Thursday, jolting an already anxious French capital with a new dose of fear as the nation grimly marked a year of terror that started with the newsroom massacre at the Charlie Hebdo satirical magazine. The assailant — who shouted “Allahu akbar!” or “God is great!” as he waved the knife at officers — was carrying a document with an emblem of Hollande the Islamic State group and “an unequivocal claim of responsibility in Arabic,” the prosecutor’s office said. The extremist group claimed responsibility for the Jan. 7, 2015, attack at Charlie Hebdo and on a kosher grocery store three days later that killed 17 people. The Islamic State group also claimed the Nov. 13 attacks on
Paris cafes, restaurants, a sports stadium and a music hall that killed 130 people. Thursday’s attempted attack shortly before noon in Paris’ multi-ethnic Goutte d’Or neighborhood came almost one year to the minute after two Islamic extremists burst into the offices of Charlie Hebdo, killing 11 people. Just moments earlier, President Francois Hollande had paid respects to fallen security forces saluting their valor in protecting “this way of life, the one that terrorists want to attack.”
Bombing kills 60 TRIPOLI, Libya — A massive truck bomb exploded near a police base in the western Libyan town of Zliten on Thursday, killing at least 60 policemen and wounding around 200 others, officials said. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, but a local Islamic State affiliate has been trying to gain a foothold in Zliten, spreading westward from its central stronghold in the city of Sirte along the North African country’s coast. The U.N. special envoy to Libya, Martin Kobler, denounced the attack and urged Libyans to “put their differences aside and unite to confront the scourge of terrorism.” The Associated Press

CHICAGO — A video showing a white Texas state trooper shouting “I will light you up” while pulling a black woman from her car brought national outrage, troubling the woman’s family, the trooper’s boss and, perhaps, even a grand jury. But as Sandra Bland’s mother fumed Thursday over Texas Department of Public Safety Trooper Brian Encinia being only indicted on a misdemeanor charge of perjury, the outcome was less surprising to some legal experts and civil rights groups who for

months have cautioned that while the dashcam footage might show bad policing, it’s not necessarily felony misconduct. Bland, a 28-year-old former resident of Naperville, Ill., was found dead in her jail cell three days after the confrontational July traffic stop on the outskirts of Houston.
Grand jury declined charges Authorities said Bland hanged herself with a garbage bag, and the same grand jury in December declined to charge anyone in her death. Bland’s family and activists in the Black Lives Matter movement
argue justice slipped away again with the relatively light charges brought against Encinia. If convicted of the perjury charge, he faces a maximum of one year in jail and a $4,000 fine. “To charge this guy with a misdemeanor, are you kidding me?” Bland’s mother, Geneva ReedVeal, said during a news conference in Chicago. “I’m angry, absolutely. . . . That’s not justice for me.” DPS announced shortly after Wednesday’s indictment that Encinia would be fired. Encinia surrendered Thursday afternoon at the Waller County Jail, with his bond set at $2,500.

CALIFORNIANS CAUTIOUSLY VENTURED outside Thursday after days of powerful El Niño-driven storms drenched the region, stopping cable cars in San Francisco, stranding motorists and dumping heavy snow in northern Arizona. Earlier in the day, the last major storm expected this week lashed coastal areas of California, stirring waves as high as 16 feet and flooding some low-lying streets, before turning east toward Nevada and Arizona. The sun eventually came out in parts of Los Angeles, but rain lingered in San Diego County.
AN ARIZONA LAWMAKER wants to bar the public from videotaping law enforcement officers from close range, saying groups that rush in to film police interactions are routinely endangering officers by distracting them while they’re engaged with suspects. Republican state Sen. John Kavanagh’s bill would bar videotaping police from 20 feet or closer. The proposed legislation filed for consideration in the session that begins Monday would make it a petty offense to violate the law, or a misdemeanor if the person keeps taping after being warned or has a previous conviction.
ONE OF THE holiday’s hottest presents is now considered contraband at many U.S. colleges. More than 30 universities have banned or restricted hoverboards on their campuses in recent weeks, saying the two-wheeled, motorized scooters are unsafe. Beyond the risk of falls and collisions, colleges are citing warnings from federal authorities that some of the self-balancing gadgets have caught on fire. “It’s clear that these things are potentially dangerous,” said Len Dolan, managing director of fire safety at Kean University in Union, N.J.
A NORTH TEXAS woman has given birth to her own granddaughter after serving as a surrogate for her daughter. At age 54, Tracey Thompson of Plano delivered a 6-pound, 11-ounce girl after serving as surrogate for her 28-year-old daughter, Kelley McKissack. Doctors at The Medical Center of Plano say McKissack and her husband, Aaron McKissack, had undergone multiple infertility treatments only to suffer three miscarriages. According to a hospital statement released Thursday, the Wylie, Texas, couple had four fertilized embryos left, so Tracey Thompson offered to be a surrogate, despite being past menopause.

Lawmakers: Three OMC incumbents 2016 focus sworn in for board duty is education BY CHRIS MCDANIEL PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
BY DONNA GORDON BLANKINSHIP THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
OLYMPIA — State leaders, aware of a looming court deadline, say the upcoming 60-day legislative session is when they will figure out how to reform the way the state pays for education. But legislative leaders speaking at The Associated Press Legislative Preview on Thursday said they still haven’t resolved where to find the money and likely won’t get there until the 2017 Legislature. House Majority Leader Pat Sullivan said the Legislature is under pressure from both the courts and state law to finally resolve the complicated budget issues at the heart of the Supreme Court ruling known as the McCleary decision. The ruling said the state wasn’t spending enough on basic education, including teacher salaries, and depended too much on local tax levies. The Legislature faces a 2018 deadline to finish paying for its previous commitments to improve education.
McCleary ruling A scheduled end to some financial support for local schools, including state levy equalization and a boost to the amount local school districts can collect, may put more pressure on the Legislature than the 2012 McCleary ruling. “There will be districts that will go bankrupt if we don’t solve the problem,” said Sullivan, D-Covington. Senate Majority Leader Mark Schoesler also expressed confidence that the Legislature can get its education work done, noting that lawmakers found a bipartisan solution to transportation funding last year. “When we need to work together, we have shown that we can do it,” said Schoesler, R-Ritzville. Although lawmakers have many other priorities this year — from mental health to state prisons and wildfires — House Speaker
PORT ANGELES — After swearing in three reelected commissioners during their regular meeting Wednesday, the Olympic Medical Center board of commissioners elected John Nutter as president and Jean Hordyk as secretary. “It is going to be a fun year to be president,” Nutter said after the vote. Sworn in were Jim Cammack, representing District 3 in Position 1; Jim Leskinovitch in the at-large position; and Tom Oblak, representing District 1 in Position 2. All three ran unopposed in the general election. The board of commissioners also includes John Beitzel, representing District 1 in Position 1; Nutter, representing District 2 in Position 1; Hordyk, representing District 2 in Position 2; and Dr. John Miles, representing District 3 in Position 2. Oblak preceded Nutter as president, having been elected by the board to that position in 2015 and serving until the beginning of Wednesday’s meeting. Eric Lewis, the hospital’s chief executive officer, took a moment during the meeting
Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, said nothing will take priority over education funding. The governor said a bipartisan group working on education funding has made excellent progress since the last legislative session ended and have reached substantial common ground. Lawmakers serving on that work group said they will have a plan to discuss and vote on what they are working on getting from their political caucuses. “Progress is slow because we need to bring our colleagues along. We also need to bring the public along,” said Sen. Christine Rolfes, D-Bainbridge Island.
Progress made? Rep. Chad Magendanz, R-Issaquah, noted that the Legislature has made progress during the past few years on spending more on education, but the local levy issue is a bigger, more difficult problem because it involves inequity among school districts and the education students are getting across the state. “This equity issue is complicated,” he said. Some of that plan, which has not been released, will focus on getting more data to figure out exactly how much money the state needs to end its overreliance on local levies for basic education funding. Democrats on Thursday said that number is about $3.5 billion. But Republicans say all estimates are just that until they have the data from local school districts about how much of their levy dollars are paying for basic education expenses like classroom teacher salaries. Members of both parties emphasized that the state’s education funding problem is not an issue of trying to satisfy the Supreme Court. “This is about the education of our children, not just the court order,” said the governor, who is also concerned about a current teacher shortage.
BELLEVUE — Bellevue science teacher Ryan Lafferty has won a prestigious national award. The award was announced Thursday at an assembly at Bellevue’s
to thank Oblak for his service throughout the past year. “I just want to say, every board president works really hard, but 2015 — for a lot of reasons — was a very busy year, and I want to thank you for your hard work and dedication and commitment to OMC,” Lewis said. “I think you have really helped this year. I really appreciate your leadership. You have really supported me and guided me, and I don’t think I would have gotten through the year without your help.” Upon accepting the man-
tle of president, Nutter said he is “very excited about the new year.” OMC “is really headed down the road to do some wonderful, exciting things this next year,” Nutter continued.
Medical office building Nutter said at the top of that list is the construction of a 42,000-square-foot medical office building currently being erected to the south of the main hospital building. The $16.2 million project, built by Kirtley-Cole
Associates LLC of Everett, will include examination rooms, doctors’ offices, laboratories and primary-care and urgent-care clinics. The project officially began with a groundbreaking ceremony this past September and is expected to be completed in October, Lewis has said. “We’ve got a new medical office building going up, and it is really going to help the needs of our community,” Nutter said. “We have a lot of new . . . services we are going to be able to offer our constituents and our public.”

PORT ANGELES — Olympic Medical Center commissioners have approved contracts for new physicians in Port Angeles and Sequim. They also endorsed Wednesday the Sequim School District’s $54 million construction bond measure, which will be on the Feb. 9 special election ballot. The bond — requiring a 60 percent supermajority for passage — would pay for a new elementary school, renovation of Sequim High School and other district improvements. Such renovations are needed to attract qualified physicians to the Sequim area, said Eric Lewis, CEO. “Physicians are looking [for] much more than a place to work,” he said. “They are looking for a place to have a career [and] a place to raise their families.” Generally, “physicians and their spouses go and visit the schools” before deciding if they want to move to the community, Lewis said. He said one physician who was considering moving to Sequim recently decided against the move and relocated elsewhere after visiting Sequim High. “I think it is critical for our communities to have schools that are competitive and are attractive to retain physicians,” he said.
“Our schools really matter.” The commissioners approved contracts for Dr. John Seddon, who specializes in orthopedic surgery; and Dr. David Lewis, who specializes in osteopathic family medicine. They also approved a contract for Michael McGuire, an advanced registered nurse practitioner of family medicine. In addition, commissioners approved CompHealth agreements for Drs. Scott Hankinson and Terri Oskin. CompHealth is a national health care staffing firm that provides temporary and permanent placement services for health care agencies. Seddon is expected to join the hospital’s orthopedic team this summer and will work in both Sequim and Port Angeles, said Dr. Rebecca Corley, the hospital’s chief physician officer. He will be paid $440,177 annually, with a $25,000 fellowship stipend, a $25,000 signing bonus and a $10,000 annual retention bonus for five years, she said. Seddon completed his residency at Oregon Health and Science University and now is in Melbourne, Australia, for a foot and ankle surgery fellowship, Corley said. David Lewis is scheduled to join hospital staff in October and will work in both Sequim and Port Ange-
les, Corley said. He will be paid $205,024 per year, with a $35,000 signing bonus and a $10,000 annual retention bonus for four years, she said. David Lewis, who grew up in Port Angeles, is finishing his family practice residency at St. John MacombOakland Hospital, Corley said. McGuire will practice in Port Angeles to start with, Corley said, with the potential for providing services in Sequim in the future if needed. He will begin his new job as soon as the appropriate paperwork is processed, she said. He will be paid $85,000 a year, with a signing bonus of $10,000 and a $5,000 annual retention bonus for four years, Corley said. McGuire completed a Master of Science in nursing at the University of Florida in Jacksonville in April.
CompHealth contracts
The CompHealth contract for Oskin is about $157 per hour for up to an eight-hour workday. Oskin will work as a family practitioner for three to six months as the hospital continues recruitment for a permanent family practice doctor, Corley said.
Accountability audit State auditors recently found the hospital in 2014 complied with state laws and regulations and its own policies and procedures in the areas examined, Eric Lewis told commissioners. The audit, which cost the hospital about $12,000 to commission, was completed recently after a three-week period. This is the 15th consecutive year the hospital has passed the audit successfully, Lewis said. “It just shows that our employees are focused on following laws and regulations and internal policies,” Lewis said after the meeting. “I think we focus, as an organization, on being an organization of integrity. We just really work on making sure we are compliant with the rules and regulations. “We are not perfect, but when we make a mistake, we fix it.”
The CompHealth contract for Hankinson is about $234 per hour for up to an eight-hour workday. Hankinson, slated to begin in February, is being brought on as a temporary staff member.

swimming away after mating to die. Pacific giant octopuses are ready to breed at about 3 years old and live to be only 4 or 5. Even so, they are the longest-lived, and largest, of the octopus species. They grow to an average of 16 feet and 110 pounds, according to National Geographic. Ursula was thought to be about 18 months old when she was caught last February and replaced Obecka, who was also caught and released at Freshwater Bay. All of the octopuses kept by the marine center in the past five years have been female.

Gene Farr of Port Ludlow, a retired satellite designer, slammed the delay in acquiring the permit. “We have to find a way to get this expedited,” he said. “We developed a major satellite program in four to five years. For this to take 10 years is appalling.” In a December 2014 meeting, many people voiced the same sentiments: the resort’s potential economic benefit versus its environmental impact as well as a concern that the county had not provided enough time to respond.

PORT ANGELES — The Feiro Marine Life Center is entering the new year with a farewell to a popular resident but with improvements and plans for bigger and better things. Feiro will release its resident octopus, Ursula, into the wild soon, is installing a new oyster exhibit and has released a request for bid for a master plan to explore how to build a new marine science building at the center’s site at City Pier, said Melissa Williams, executive director for Feiro. Ursula, a Pacific giant octopus, has reached breed-
ing age, Williams said, adding that the day of the female octopus’ release will not be made public for the safety of the octopus. A state permit for keeping an octopus requires that it is released in the area where it was caught — Freshwater Bay. Female octopuses seek caves or niches when they are ready to breed. After mating, an octopus will lay thousands of eggs — some more than 100,000 — within that cave. They have been called the world’s best mothers, because they will guard and tend to the eggs without eating — until they die. Males also die young,

Briefly: State Lawmakers propose new school fix
Michael Baumgartner, R-Spokane, would hold charter schools accountable to local school districts, seeking to let schools receive money from the same place as public schools. Litzow’s proposal says charter schools would operate separately from the regular school system.
OLYMPIA — Lawmakers in Washington have a new proposal seeking to keep the state’s charter school system open after it was struck down by the state Supreme Court last September. Legislation announced Thursday by Sen. Steve Litzow, R-Mercer Island, and Rep. Eric Pettigrew, D-Renton, would fund charter schools through the state’s Opportunity Pathways Account, which has revenue from the state lottery. The charter system previously received money from the same place as traditional public schools, but the Supreme Court ruled that unconstitutional. A bill filed earlier this week by Sen. Andy Billig, D-Spokane, and Sen.

Mutsu City, PA students reaffirm sister city pact BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — Middle school students reaffirmed the relationship between Mutsu City and Port Angeles in a signing ceremony Thursday afternoon at Port Angeles City Hall. A delegation from Mutsu City, Japan, is in town visiting Port Angeles to celebrate the 20th year of a sister city agreement between the two communities. Groups of students rep-
resenting the two cities presented PowerPoint programs of photographs to celebrate the qualities of their hometowns to a group of about 40 people in council chambers.
Ambassador program The 15 students from the Mutsu City Student Ambassadors program represented six junior high schools in Mutsu City, while seven Stevens Middle School students represented Port Angeles. Their presentations
highlighted similar cities, both located on peninsulas with seaside and mountain activities, popular festivals and outdoor activities, but with challenges that include remote locations, declining populations and a need for more local shopping infrastructure and jobs. Both communities seek to balance tourism and ecology with industry, students said. At the end of the presentations, four students — Stevens students Maizie Tucker and Macia Bohman, and Mutsu City student ambassadors Yuki Makata

Wolves avoid upset
Low tide will delay Haggerty, Bentz lead shrimp Sequim season BY MICHAEL CARMAN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
THE STATE DEPARTMENT of Fish and Wildlife is looking out for you. State shellfish managers Michael are pushing back the popular Carman spot shrimp fishery in Puget Sound and the Hood Canal one week to Saturday, May 14. The decision to delay the opener is a result of the extremely low tides that are expected midday during the first Saturday in May — the traditional season opener and the usual date of the Kentucky Derby. But I digress. Low tides ranging between -1.7 feet along the Strait of Juan de Fuca and -2.5 feet along the Hood Canal are expected to render many boat ramps unusable and also create poor shrimping conditions. “We’re pushing the season opener to May 14 to allow shrimpers to get the most out of the limited number of days that many marine areas, including Hood Canal, are open each year,” state shellfish biologist Mark O’Toole said. Fish and Wildlife decided to announce the change this far out to give shrimpers time to change motel or moorage reservations and schedule vacation requests to the right weekend. In past years, the department has adjusted shrimp fishing days later in the season to avoid significantly low tides, but not the season opening date. After 2016, there will not be another extreme low tide on the first Saturday in May until 2021. Fish and Wildlife said it will wait to announce the remainder of the shrimp fishing dates for each marine area until the final 2016 harvest quotas have been determined, likely sometime in February. “In general, we expect shrimping opportunities in most marine areas to be similar to last year,” O’Toole said.

Rematch a whole new ball game BY NICK PATTERSON THE [EVERETT] DAILY HERALD
Hatchery steelhead After a run of clear, crisp days over the New Year’s holiday, the grey gloom returned, albeit without much rainfall. That bodes well for anglers looking to make something out of what had been a rough hatchery steelhead season on the West End. Much of December was a washout for anglers, with nearly constant rain conspiring to keep rivers blown out and murky brown. The first hatchery steelhead to crack Fish and Wildlife’s creel reports on the Sol Duc River only came between Jan. 1-3. And even then it was just five total hatchery steelies landed by 19 anglers. Ward Norden, owner of Snapper Tackle Company and a former fishery biologist who lives in Quilcene, recently ventured west. “The Sol Duc is gin clear and a bit low, so lighter lines will be required on most northwest coastal rivers,” Norden said. Norden recommends using leaders between 6 and 8 pounds. Lake fishing probably won’t be productive due to the recent chilly temperatures. “Lake Leland is still 50 percent frozen over as of [Wednesday], so the water in the lake is around 34 degrees meaning slow fishing,” Norden said.

The Seahawks and wide receiver Doug Baldwin (89), shown scoring on a 53-yard TD pass, ran away from the Minnesota Vikings in a 38-7 blowout victory in December.
RENTON — There’s one thing the Seattle Seahawks and Minnesota Vikings agree upon in advance of their wild-card playoff game Sunday in Minneapolis: D o n ’ t e x p e c t another 38-7.

Griffey Jr. inspired a love of game “TRAILBLAZER” IS NOT a word Ken Griffey Jr. would use to describe himself. “A trail-what?” I can hear him say, feigning confusion with a wince and a smile. “Trailblazer? Isn’t that some dude who plays basketball in Portland?” But among the countless adjectives associated with Griffey, elected Wednesday into the Baseball Hall of Fame with a record 99.3 percent of the vote, trailblazer now applies. Griffey will enter the shrine as the first player to come within three votes of unanimity, the first Hall-of-Famer taken
with the John No. 1 overall pick of McGrath the baseball draft, and the first to enter the Hall wearing a Seattle Mariners cap. The Hall-ofFame plaque underscoring Griffey’s achievements — my thoughts and prayers are with the editor assigned to con-
dense that litany — might mention the influential role he played in preserving the future of big-league baseball in Seattle. And though he had a little help from Edgar Martinez, Jay Buhner, and fellow Hall-ofFamer Randy Johnson, it’s true: The Mariners were pretty much gone in 1995, on their way to Tampa Bay, when Griffey returned from a wrist injury. With his sweet swing intact, baseball fans throughout the Pacific Northwest encountered pennant fever for the first time. The fever held produce
Safeco Field. Griffey had star power, and not just because he was a star with power. He convinced an entire generation of kids that baseball is nothing but fun, a deception evident to anybody challenged to hit a breaking ball delivered by the pitcher who’s just thrown a chin-high fastball. Fun? At the professional level, baseball can be the most humiliating of sports. Your name is pronounced on the public-address system: “Now pitching, now batting.” TURN

McGrath: Jersey retirement coming CONTINUED FROM B1 Hiding like the basketball player disinclined to take the last-second shot that erases a one-point deficit is not an option. Between that beautiful batting stroke and the elegant approach he took to line drives hit over his head in center field, Griffey exuded the casual confidence of an athlete born for the spotlight. Griffey’s trailblazing, by the way, won’t conclude with a midsummer acceptance speech. Sometime during the next year or so, the Mariners almost certainly will retire his jersey — No. 24 — an honor the team has yet to bestow on any player but Brooklyn Dodgers legend Jackie Robinson, the ultimate trailblazer.
That the election results denied Griffey a 100-percent mandate is a topical storm, as inevitable as it is unfortunate. Instead of celebrating the transcendent talent of somebody once regarded to be the best overall player in baseball, instead of emphasizing the unprecedented support of his candidacy — 437 of 440 voters returned ballots with a check next to his name — the narrative dwells on the defiant ones who didn’t. The possibility all 440 voting members of the Baseball Writers Association of America would agree on a candidate’s worthiness as a first-ballot Hall-ofFamer was remote and yet, because the candidate was Griffey, viable. Blame can be put on Babe Ruth, whose record-setting reinvention of baseball from the
“dead ball” era somehow didn’t impress 11 of the 226 writers who voted for the inaugural Hall of Fame class, in 1936. If The Babe wasn’t unanimous, I suppose the case goes, who is?
Won’t bother Junior The oh-so-close election result, baffling to fans and bothersome to commentators, shouldn’t faze Griffey. He knows what he did and what he meant, and he knows that a 437-of-440 vote approximates a group hug — or at least an affirmation of their ability to ponder sustained excellence — from the writers he sometimes found contentious. Griffey’s career was bookended in Seattle: A decade as a Mariners icon capped by an awkward departure, and then a
swan-song return in his twilight years, capped by an even more awkward departure. There were highs and lows, but the highs were so high it seems petty to point out the lows. He played a difficult game with so much style, he literally changed a style. Before Griffey, baseball caps typically had been worn with the bill in front. He turned it around during warmups, during batting practice, during his many promotional photo ops. There was even talk he might enter the Hall with his bill turned backward. Once a trailblazer, always a trailblazer.

Baldwin changes attitude after talk with mom BY NICK PATTERSON THE [EVERETT] DAILY HERALD
RENTON — Welome to the kinder, gentler Doug Baldwin. The Seattle Seahawks receiver was often referred to as Angry Doug in the past, in large part because of a perceived lack of respect for he and his fellow Seattle receivers. However, that anger has dissipated during the best season of his NFL career. Baldwin had a breakout season in his fourth NFL campaign. He set a career high with 78 receptions. He became the first Seahawk since 2007 to surpass 1,000 yards receiving in a season. His 14 touchdowns tied for the NFL lead. He even had his name put in the same sentence with Jerry Rice when he caught 10 TDs over a four-game stretch. And he accomplished it all in a much more serene manner than his first three seasons. Baldwin was always motivated to prove people were wrong about him. He overcame being benched during his junior year at Stanford. He overcame being an undrafted free agent out of college. He’s overcome being described
as an average receiver in the NFL. The player who admitted in the past to playing better with a chip on his shoulder is no longer relying on the chip. “I had a great conversation with my mom during the offseason, and she told me I need to stop wearing the chip or boulder on my shoulder,” Baldwin said Thursday at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. “She said, ‘Let’s have wings on your shoulder because that will help you fly further and higher.’ So I don’t look at it as a chip or a boulder anymore. I got the wings of an angel, as my mom would put it.” Why did Baldwin’s mom feel the need to tell him this? “Because she knows how competitive I am and how hard I tried to be successful,” Baldwin answered. “Sometimes there is such a thing as trying too hard. One of our mottos here is you’ve got to work smarter, not necessarily always harder. “For me, that’s a growing period, I guess if you will. As you mature in age you learn that sometimes you don’t have to work as hard
to get a call out. On the road it’s easier because when the offense is up for the opponent, it’s so quiet.”

For the second straight day Seahawks receiver Tyler Lockett was recognized by the NFL, being named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Month for December/January. This came one day after Lockett was named the NFC Special Teams Player of the Week for Week 17. In Seattle’s five regular season games in December and January, Lockett averaged 27.1 yards on nine kickoff returns and 16.6 yards on 11 punt returns. That included his performance in last Sunday’s 36-6 victory at Arizona, when he set a new franchise record for punt-return yardage in a game, totaling 139 yards. This was the second time this season Lockett, a rookie, earned NFC Special Teams Player of the Month honors. He also took home the award for September.

Vikings have recovered One of the big differences this time around is Minnesota will be much closer to full strength defensively.
In the first meeting, nose tackle Linval Joseph and strong safety Andrew Sendejo sat out because of injuries, while Smith and linebacker Anthony Barr both departed during the first quarter and did not return. Those are four of Minnesota’s best defensive players, and without them the Seahawks eviscerated a Vikings defense that came into the game ranked second in the NFL in fewest points allowed. However, Sendejo, Barr and Smith have all since returned, and Joseph was back at practice Wednesday in a limited capacity and could play Sunday. Having those players back will make the task much more difficult for Seattle’s offense. “When you’re missing three starters, it has an effect on any team,” Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said. “Those are some really solid players for them. They really missed Smith in the back end. He’s really a nice ball hawk, he searches for the ball, he has great ball skills, plays from sideline to
sideline, so he makes a lot of nice plays for them. “Barr is really their leader in the linebacking core, so you’re going to miss guys like those guys. It has an impact on their defense.”

Boys Basketball Hoquiam 55, Forks 44 HOQUIAM — The Spartans had trouble tracking down rebounds in an Evergreen League loss to the Grizzlies at Hoquiam Square Garden. “Sometimes you are going to have a bad shooting night but there’s no excuse for having a bad block out or bad defensive rotation night,” Forks coach Rick Gooding said. “We didn’t block out worth a hoot.” Hoquiam broke the
game open in the second quarter, outscoring the Spartans 23-13. “It went from a one-point game after the first quarter to an 11-point game at half,” Gooding said. Forks chipped away at the Grizzlies lead in the third quarter. “Their stud Jack Adams got in some foul trouble and we took advantage,” Gooding said. “We went on a pretty good run but the ball just was not falling for us tonight.” Parker Browning led the Spartans in scoring with 15

They’re a terrific defense. We got a lot of points the day we were there, that hasn’t happened in their other games. “They’re just a really good football team and you better play good on the day you play them or they’re going to get you,” Carroll added. “Last week they played a very conservative game against Green Bay and waited for their opportunities, cashed in on the turnovers, and put together a fantastic championship game. That always concerns me a lot because they’re not giving you a lot of opportunities to do things.” The Seahawks took advantage of every opportunity they had the previous time they played the Vikings. They’ll need to do the same Sunday to come out of Minnesota with another victory.

NEW YORK — Ken Griffey Jr. was straightforward with his Hall of Fame cap selection: His plaque in Cooperstown will have a Seattle Mariners logo and won’t portray him with the brim toward the rear, the way he wore it so often. After slipping on a Hall of Fame jersey along with Mike Piazza, Griffey put his cap on the way most players do. Then he turned it around, sat down and pointed a thumb toward the catcher, who also will be
inducted on July 24 “He wore it backwards more than I did,” Griffey said with a smile. Elected with 99.3 percent of the votes, the highest percentage ever, he will be the first player with a Mariners hat logo in the Hall. “I think I did most of my damage as a Mariner,” Griffey said. “Want to be the first in a lot of things, and to be able to wear a Mariners’ hat and to go into the Hall of Fame as a Mariner, that’s also one of the decisions I needed to make.

Resolutions? Consider consequences weeks in February and booked a trip that will take her to Texas, Virginia and Minnesota. “I want to understand some of these folks and the trouble they’re having,” she said. “I want to go out and see what we do.” In both cases, Kirshenbaum and Kirby realized that failing to commit the time to their goals would mean they were not as effective as they could be. To keep them from making up excuses, they made the commitment in their calendars.
BY PAUL SULLIVAN THE NEW YORK TIMES
T
HE NEW YEAR’S resolutions are still new. And a cynic — or realist, given past performance — might say many of them will fail by spring, if not sooner. Even so, the resolutions return every year, particularly the big three: getting in shape, becoming better at work and improving our financial lives. All three have something else in common: There are financial and economic consequences when someone fails to keep them, just as surely as there are financial and economic benefits to success. And people who can tie their resolutions to real consequences, psychologists, doctors and even health club owners say, have the best chance of success. “People typically succeed because their ‘why’ is bigger than their ‘but,’ ” said Elizabeth Lombardo, a wealth psychologist in Chicago. As an example, she said, “I want to work out, but I have no time.” Getting past the “but” is not easy. That’s why so many of the resolutions fail. To succeed, the resolution makers are going to need a combination of more help, lower expectations and bigger consequences than most imagine.

As for the quicker way to selfimprovement, January and February are usually big months for many types of plastic surgery, said Robert Grant, a plastic surgeon in New York. The financial costs — rarely, if ever, covered by insurance — range widely. Injectable treatments like Botox are generally under $1,000 but they need to be repeated periodically. Face-lifts usually cost $10,000 to $20,000. Then, there are the costs of time to recover, from weeks to several months. Yet Grant said he sometimes counsels patients that their expectations won’t be met. Postholiday liposuction is one such procedure. “If they’ve gained 10 to 15 pounds over the holiday and think I can suck it out, it doesn’t work that way,” he said. “They’re better off taking the 10 grand they’d pay me to hire a trainer or use one of those services that deliver three good meals a day.”

Richard Kirshenbaum, the chief executive of the advertising agency NSG/SWAT, said he wanted to make himself more productive this year. “This past year was really difficult for me,” he said. “ I ended up having a lot more happen this year and I was not prepared as well as I could have been.” So he and his longtime assistant came up with the idea of blocking off two hours at some point every week for him to come up with the fresh ideas that every advertising agency needs. But they took it a step further: Kirshenbaum, 54, would have his driver take him to a restaurant and keep his cellphone in the car; only his assistant would know where he was, and she would have the sole authority to decide whether to have the driver interrupt him. “After all these years in the business, I am very efficient with my time,” he said. “If I can have two hours, I can get a lot done.” Time is an issue, too, for Leslie Kirby, a technology consultant to financial services firms and the co-founder of Wall Street Rocks, a small nonprofit group that aims to help veterans.

inancial changes: As to financial resolutions, Fidelity Investments, the mutual fund company, released what it called its seventh annual “financial resolutions study.” It found that money resolutions had increased. The survey found that 37 percent of respondents intended to make a financial resolution this year, up from 31 percent last year. One reason for the increase, the report said, was a feeling of economic uncertainty. While saving more topped the list — with more than half of respondents resolving to do so — the percentage of people who said they were going to pay off credit card debt was at its highest point since the company started the survey in 2009. These types of resolutions would seem to require a steely pragmatism. But there are ways of automating that financial resolution, whether it’s saving or paying down debt, that can help people stick to their plan. Whatever the resolution, said Lombardo, the wealth psychologist, doing it for a month or so under normal conditions can generally get it to stick. But maintaining normal conditions can be tough. “When stress happens, we have to take care of that, and it can take you away from that resolution,” she said. “It’s why people who quit smoking for 10 years go back to it when something stressful comes up.” Instead, she said, people should analyze their failures and try again. “It’s data,” she said. “Research has shown it takes someone seven times to quit smoking. But each time you go back to it, you should say, ‘What was the ingredient that contributed to me going off the wagon? I had a tough day, I had a drink, I was exhausted.’ ” So good luck this year, and if you fail, better luck in 2017.

Who’s cornering the anger market? LET’S TALK FOR a minute about Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump. Both of them were in New York this week. Gail Collins Sanders made a speech about Wall Street to a large and boisterous crowd. They cheered his idea of taxing financial transactions and using the money to make public college tuition free. They booed Wall Street executive bonuses, and loudly joined in to finish some of Sanders’ sentences. (“Congress does not regulate Wall Street ... WALL STREET REGULATES CONGRESS!”) “Second-biggest crowds, in all fairness,” said Trump at a meeting Wednesday with The New York Times editorial board. He added, of course, that his were way, way, way bigger. Both men’s campaigns are about outrage. Sanders wants the country to rise up against the special privileges that keep making the richest 1 percent richer. Trump rocketed to the top of the polls by railing about illegal immigration. The saddest thing about this presidential race so far is that the Trump approach has gotten way more attention. To be honest, Donald Trump as a presidential candidate is fascinating, in a perverse way. The effect is sort of like being at a cocktail party listening while a half-tipsy celebrity blathers on about his stupid co-star and the way the Academy Awards are fixed. Trump doesn’t drink, but his speeches do have that sloppy offthe-cuff quality.
He’ll start to talk about an issue and then abruptly announce: “So who knows? It’s a theory.” Then he boasts about his polls. (“I could talk about these suckers all night long.”) There’s something a little refreshing in a candidate who does all his bragging upfront. And let’s acknowledge that the number of typical American voters who want to listen to a call for the return of the Glass-Steagall Act is not as large as the number who want to hear Trump rant against environmental regulations by describing his affinity for hair spray. But Sanders has such better villains. In his Wall Street speech, he talked about businessmen who get away with the financial equivalent of murder. Wachovia, an American bank later acquired by Wells Fargo, “aided Mexican drug cartels,” Sanders said, by laundering billions of dollars in their cash. “Yet the total fine for this offense was less than 2 percent of the bank’s $12.3 billion profit . . . and no one went to jail. No one went to jail.” That seems a lot more outrageous than Mexican workers sneaking across the border — even the ones who are portrayed, in Trump’s TV ad, by a film clip of Africans trying to fling themselves across a fence out of Morocco. Maybe the problem with Sanders’ speech was that after he warned Wall Street and corporate America “if you do not end your greed, we will end it for you,” he seemed to feel compelled to say how he would do that. Which did require some discussion of the Federal Reserve and banking regulation. Trump seems to feel absolutely no compunction to explain how anything would work. His defense program is basically, “We’re going to make our military really, really, really strong.” He’s going to get rid of all the
immigrants here illegally — the actual procedure for making this happen is hazy — and then force the Mexican government to pay for that wall. (“Trust me, Mexico will pay.”) And he’s going to reduce the trade deficit with China (“the single greatest theft in the history of the world . . .”). At the editorial board meeting, Trump said he’d use his stupendous deal-making powers to force the Chinese to raise the value of their currency. And what if the Chinese don’t comply? Trump said he’d impose a tariff. How much of a tariff? Maybe 45 percent. This seemed like a new number. A few years back, Trump called for a 25 percent tariff on Chinese goods, and early in the campaign he mentioned a 35 percent tax on Mexican-built cars. Do you think he’s been re-running the figures during campaign flights? Another possible answer would be that he just makes this stuff up as he goes along. There is, Trump says, “a great anger out there. . . . A lot of people say that my campaign has picked up on that, and I didn’t do that intentionally.” Perhaps that’s true, in the sense that he never sat down and wrote out an Anger Plan. He just keeps repeating whatever seems to get a rise out of his listeners. He always was a great marketer. It’s not all that stunning that he’s so far ahead in the national polls, given the quality of the Republican competition. But it’s depressing that he’s cornered the anger franchise when his targets exclude America’s own wealthy and powerful.

Obama’s toothless gun control plan ARE YOU OPPOSED to “common sense” gun laws? These are what liberals Mona like Hillary Charen Clinton are always proclaiming their support for. In their telling, expanding background checks, closing the “gun show loophole” and restricting Internet sales will, in the words of liberal columnist E.J. Dionne, “[limit] the carnage on our streets, in our schools and houses of worship, and at our movie theaters.” That’s not an argument — it’s moral grandstanding, and not a word of it holds up under scrutiny. As someone who doesn’t love guns, and who believes that the Second Amendment does not forbid all regulation of gun ownership, I am open to the idea of gun control. The facts, though, are stubborn things. We’ve always had plentiful guns in this country, but we haven’t always had the frequency of random mass shootings in public places that have so disturbed us over the past couple of decades. As many critics, including the fact checker at The Washington Post, have observed, President Obama’s suggestion that “violent felons can buy the exact same weapon over the Internet with no background check, no questions asked” is rubbish. “A gun dealer must comply with federal laws that require gun sellers to have licenses and perform background checks . . . without regard for whether the sale is arranged on the Internet or in person,” quoth The Washington Post. None of the reforms proposed by President Obama would have prevented the awful mass shootings in Newtown or Roseburg or
Aurora or San Bernardino. As the Associated Press showed, the killers in those cases legally purchased their weapons and passed background checks, or used straw purchasers (already illegal), or used weapons owned by family members. The Charleston killer should not have passed the background check (he had a drug arrest on his record), but government bungling allowed the purchase to proceed. Are we in the grip of an epidemic of gun violence? Writing in Reason magazine, Brian Doherty notes that the gun homicide rate in 1993 (when there were approximately 192 million guns in circulation) was 7 per 100,000 Americans. In 2013, the gun murder rate had declined to 3.8 per 100,000, by which time there were approximately 300 million guns in private hands. More guns do not seem to equal more gun murders. If we’re not awash in gun violence, we are certainly in the grip of bad journalism about gun violence. As a 2015 survey published in Preventive Medicine magazine showed, only a tiny percentage of criminals purchase their guns from shops. Most obtain them through informal networks or gangs. Is the “gun show loophole” responsible for lots of guns in the hands of bad actors? Doubtful. A 2001 survey of federal prisoners found that only 1 percent had purchased their weapons at gun shows, and as Charles C.W. Cooke has patiently explained, the “gun show loophole” is a misnomer in any case. FFLs (federal firearms licensed sellers) must perform background checks no matter where they transact business, and private sellers are under no obligation to perform checks whether they sell from their kitchen or at a gun show. About two-thirds of gun deaths in America are suicides. It’s possible that one proposed
reform, adopting so-called “smart guns” that could be fired only by the owner, might be useful in preventing some fraction of gun deaths. One thinks of teenagers who commit suicide with the gun belonging to their parents, or children who die in gun accidents. Smart guns might make it more difficult for criminals who steal guns to use them (though that Preventive Medicine survey suggests that only about 3 percent of criminals’ guns are stolen). We can’t be certain that the technology would work, and we know that many of the recent mass shootings have been carried out by legal gun owners. So, guarded optimism, maybe, but no magic bullet there. Showcasing one’s feelings about mass shootings — especially when you can ratchet up your indignation at the “gun lobby” and Republicans — is emotionally satisfying. But the truth is that no one really knows why we’ve suffered mass shootings in such numbers in recent years. It might be partly the copycat effect; or the lure of the publicity shooters invariably receive in a culture that has trouble separating fame from infamy; the decline of character-building institutions like churches and families (the vast majority of mass shooters have been males raised in divorced or single-parent homes); or the failure of our mentalhealth system to provide treatment to those who need it most. But those explanations don’t yield convenient villains. If you want to weep about something, it should be that.

Big-dollar baby formula thefts dog stores, police across U.S. BY MICHELLE L. PRICE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SALT LAKE CITY — The recent arrests in Utah of three people accused of stealing thousands of dollars’ worth of baby formula is the latest example of a problem that officials say is vexing stores and police nationwide as thieves systematically swipe the mixture from shelves and resell it to unsuspecting parents. Baby formula is a major expense for many new parents, with small canisters starting around $20 and special or prescription blends costing two or three times that. It’s also widely used. More than a third of infants receive formula in addition to breastmilk in their first six months, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates. Often, babies who are weaned of breastmilk will continue to drink formula into their toddler years.
LOGAN POLICE DEPARTMENT
Store surveillance video released by the Logan, Utah, Police Department shows women police say were shoplifting baby formula from a store in Logan on Dec. 5. The high price and broad demand make it an enticing target for thieves, who typically sell the stolen formula at flea markets or list it on websites like Craigslist and eBay. In late December, police in Logan, about 80 miles north of Salt Lake City, confiscated 422 cans of stolen formula worth $8,000 to
$10,000. It came from stores in Logan and three other northern Utah cities, and officers are looking for ties to similar recent thefts in Idaho cities about 150 miles away, Police Capt. Curtis Hooley said. In Pleasanton, Calif., thefts of large amounts of formula are reported at least once a month, with thieves

frequently hitting multiple stores around the San Francisco Bay Area, according to police Lt. Kurt Schlehuber. He doesn’t think the culprits are parents trying to feed their kids. “There are people that are making money off of selling the stuff,” Schlehuber said. In April, Pleasanton police arrested two people suspected of stealing dozens of containers of the product. Officers happened to see the pair running from the store with shopping baskets full of formula. But arrests can be rare when police often have only an anonymous face captured by a surveillance camera, Schlehuber said. Around the country, law enforcement agencies in recent years have reported heists ranging from thousands to several million dollars’ worth of baby formula. In 2009, Florida authorities arrested 21 people accused in an elaborate theft ring that officials said pilfered more than $2 million in formula annually. Investigators working on that sting — called “Operation Hot Milk” — said thieves were paid between $100 and $300 a day and used multiple lookouts while filling bags with formula. They hit 15 or more stores a day and later repackaged the formula and sold it in other states, authorities said. The Infant Nutrition Council of America, an association of baby formula manufacturers, does not keep statistics on the thefts but said it’s a continuing problem nationwide.

Jobless aid drops WASHINGTON — Fewer people sought U.S. unemployment benefits last week, suggesting that the job market remains healthy and insulated from the turmoil abroad in Europe and China. Applications for jobless aid fell 10,000 to a seasonally adjusted 277,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. The less volatile fourweek average dipped 1,250 to 275,750. Over the past 12 months, the number of people receiving benefits has fallen 8.3 percent to 2.2 million. U.S. employers appear to be secure, even as the Chinese stock market is collapsing, oil prices are plunging and Europe continues to slowly nurse its
way back to financial health. The relatively low level of applications for unemployment aid indicates that job growth should be healthy in the December jobs report being released by the government today. Weekly figures below 300,000 — a level not seen in the past 10 months — tend to correspond with strong monthly job gains.

So advises Christi Wojnowski, an organizer of the third annual Fitness Fest, the free party at the William Shore Memorial Pool this Saturday. The pool building at 225 E. Fifth St. will be a place to shop from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for a fresh exercise regimen, be it water- or land-based, in a local gym or in a community center. “We’re interested in people who have fitness on their minds but don’t know where to start,” said Wojnowski, the pool’s aquatics manager. Exhibitors — more than ever this year, she added — will ring the pool so people can browse, while water-exercise demonstrations will be happening. So if your swimsuit is on, you can jump into the 83-degree water and experience aqua Zumba, shallow aerobics, deep aerobics, waterwalking and balance and stability routines. “These are all adult-oriented classes,” Wojnowski said, adding that teenagers can obtain parental permission to join the programs offered throughout the year. To sweeten the event, organizers plan prize drawings and giveaways. More information is available by phoning the pool at 360417-9767 or visiting www.william shorepool.org.
QUILCENE
KEITH THORPE/PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
Buoyant classes Food demonstrations QUILCENE — The Pacific NW Food Preservation Group of Quilcene will host a Midori Farm sauerkraut and kimchi-making demonstration at 10 a.m. Saturday. The demonstration will be at the Quilcene Community Center, 294952 U.S. Highway 101. Admission will be $10. Professional sauerkraut maker Marko Colby of Midori Farm will show how to make traditionally fermented sauerkraut and kimchi. In this class at the center, he will cover the basic science behind fermentation, how to make krauts safely at home and what equipment is needed to do so.
Along with learning about health and fitness resources around town, fest-goers can learn the benefits of buoyancy, she said. “Some might not have a clear vision of what a water aerobics class can do for them,” Wojnowski said. “If they have arthritis or are recovering from surgery or an injury, the water is a safe place. You get a lot of support from the water, and you don’t have to worry about falling.” Besides lap swimming and swim lessons, the pool has 27 water-exercise classes in six styles Mondays through Saturdays, she noted.
Water aerobics instructor Julie Hjelmeseth of Port Angeles conducts a class at William Shore Memorial Pool in Port Angeles on Wednesday. And while Wojnowski has seen an influx of swimmers since the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center closed last fall, “it’s nothing overwhelming.”
On shore as well For those who want to explore land-based exercise as well as health and wellness programs, Fitness Fest participants include the Clallam County YMCA, Fitness West, Olympic Day Spa, Panacea Spa, Phoenix Dragon Martial Arts, the Port Angeles Senior & Community Center, Poser Yoga, Therapeutic Associates, Sports Fit
Training Center, Strait Occupational and Hand Therapy, and White Crane Martial Arts. The local senior and community center will have a couple of volunteers at Fitness Fest, offering information about classes, from line dancing to chair exercise to Zumba Gold, open to members and nonmembers. “A wide range of fitness classes happens under our roof, and it happens very affordably,” for as little as $1 to $3 per class, said D Bellamente, director of the senior center at 328 E.

the senior center is for old people,” she said. “When you see the pickleball and the dances going on, you see that the center serves a lot of needs,” so Bellamente hopes Saturday’s festival will draw in people who used to think the place wasn’t for them. “Community” is in the center’s name for a reason, she said. “Making friends is as important as getting your body moving.”

Birch plays professionally for many types of events in the Northwest, including restaurants and dances; French, German and Italian festivals; and the Seattle Art Museum. She will be joined by guitarist Nick Heiting and tuba player Paul Ostler, musicians she has worked with for more than 15 years.

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!!
PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
Return with Jesus’ hope CHRISTMAS AND NEW Year’s are behind us, and it’s time to return. Return home. Return to work. Maybe return a few gifts. Return to better eating habits. Return to daily exercise. Return to some form of normalcy. Now what? Buy a Valentine’s Day card? Not too fast. Maybe we should evaluate our return. And maybe we should question our normalcy. As you return and step into another year, don’t be too quick to forget those Christmas shepherds. After a very miraculous night of seeing and hearing angels and after seeing baby Jesus, the Savior, the Christ, lying in the manger — they returned to their jobs. But they didn’t return to normal. I don’t think they ever saw normal again. No, “the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told” (Luke 2:20). They returned, but because of Jesus, they returned differently, and they returned with a story, and “people were amazed at what the shepherds said to them” (2:18). And don’t forget the Magi from the east. They were “overjoyed” when the star stopped over the place where Jesus was (Matthew 2:9-10). And while being overjoyed, they worshipped Jesus and “opened their treasures and presented him with gifts” (2:11) — and then they returned. We are told the Magi returned by a different route, but I also believe that they themselves returned differently. They, like the returning shepherds, returned with joy and a miraculous story after seeing Jesus. And we can, too. Even though Jesus isn’t in the manger any longer, we can
ISSUES OF FAITH still come him, Reynolds to and we can still be overjoyed by doing so. We can still come to worship him. We can still open our treasures and give gifts to him. We can still be amazed. And we can still tell the continuing story because we are part of it. The Apostle Peter says, “Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls” (1 Peter 1:8-9). Do you believe in Jesus? Are you filled with “inexpressible and glorious joy”? Sounds good, doesn’t it? Yes, it’s time to return. But make sure you don’t pack away your joy with the crèche. Don’t let your light get packed away with the Christmas tree lights. Return, but return differently. Step into the new year with your eyes fixed on Jesus (Hebrews 12:2), and be eager to tell the miraculous story of how coming to him changed your life. Jesus doesn’t offer us normalcy; he offers us abundance (John 10:10). “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13).

Death and Memorial Notice CHERYL LYNN GHERE October 6, 1955 January 4, 2016 Cheryl Lynn Ghere passed away peacefully in her home surrounded by her family on January 4, 2016. She was 60 years old. Cheryl was the first child and only daughter born to Dean and Margaret (Wright) Shute on October 6, 1955, in Yakima, Washington. She was raised in Kennewick, Washington, until the age of 13, when the family moved to Port Townsend. Cheryl was a 1974 graduate of Port Townsend High School. After graduating from high school, Cheryl moved to Centralia, Washington, where she met her first
Mrs. Ghere husband, Rick Moore. Together, they had a daughter, Lindsey, born in April 1977. The two divorced in 1984. Cheryl worked in the Centralia/Chehalis area as a manager to various restaurants, a waitress and
a bookkeeper. She met Dan Ghere in 1986. The pair were married in 1987, welcoming a daughter, Kelsey, that September. Another daughter, Lacy, arrived in the spring of 1989. The family moved to Sequim in 1990. She was a stay-at-home mom until the youngest kids entered school. Cheryl became as involved as she could possibly make herself, accompanying every field trip, coming to every party, making costumes for every play. She was always the first to volunteer to make cookies, baking dozens and dozens at a time, sometimes staying up until 3 a.m. to ensure all the cookies were finished. In 1997, Cheryl began her position as the lunch

wonderful memories with the band was always, as she felt, her life’s purpose. No child was ever left behind on any school or band trip. She continuously pulled for those who couldn’t afford a school outing. In 2011, Cheryl was diagnosed with cancer. She was in remission, but in February of 2014, doctors found an inoperable tumor in her abdomen. The community rallied around Cheryl with their help. Over $9,000 was raised to get Cheryl, her (at the time) five grandkids, three daughters and son-in-law to Disneyland for one last “hoorah.” It was the trip of a lifetime. Cheryl is survived by her husband, Dan; children Lindsey Richardson, Kelsey Ghere, Lacy (Derek)

Still to this day, she is considered the “best lunch lady ever,” not only because of her amazing personality, but because she was always sneaking a good meal to those kids who were extra hungry or those with pastdue accounts. In 2005, the Boys & Girls Club hired Cheryl as their finance director. She was thrilled to receive this job, as she would still be able to see her “kids” from the elementary school. She also volunteered her time to the Sequim High School Band Boosters as their treasurer for five years. Making sure that those children were able to have and create amazing and

DEAR ABBY: Do you think parents should intervene in arguments between 10-year-olds? My daughter, “Amy,” was playing at a neighbor’s house with two other girls and they had an argument over something stupid. The neighbor’s daughter, “Kathy,” started to cry, so her mother asked my daughter and the other girl to leave because they had upset Kathy. Afterward, she called and wanted me to punish my daughter for upsetting hers. I didn’t do it because I think 10-year-olds are old enough to make amends with each other. When Amy explained the situation, I concluded that Kathy started to cry because she didn’t get what she wanted. The girls were playing with each other again two days later. This isn’t the first time this has happened, but it’s annoying because they make a big deal out of it. Kathy is an only child and we have three children. What do you think about this?

Dear Retired: If taking your irresponsible brother in would ensure that your retirement would be miserable, you shouldn’t do it. Your brother has lived his life the way he wanted, without consideration for the consequences. If his retirement plan was gambling that you and your siblings would support him for his poor choices, it appears he has lost that bet, too. As a kindness, direct your brother to resources that help low-income seniors.

SEQUIM — The Sequim First Friday Art Walk is adding something extra tonight. “Whodunnit Downtown? — The Case of the Chrome Key” is a mystery game for grownups, replete with clues planted in shops, suspects lurking and prizes from local merchants. “Whodunnit,” a mystery whose backstory is set in the 1940s, unfolds this evening, even as the downtown venues also reveal art shows and refreshments. And because the Art Walk has a color theme — silver — shoppers and sleuths are invited to dress in silver, black and white, or in vintage steampunk, pirate or ’40s attire. As ever, none of this is required, said organizer Renne Brock-Richmond; it’s just fine to come as you are too. But “I hope people get daring,” she said, adding that more details about “Whodunnit” await at SequimArtWalk.com. To enter the “Whodunnit” contest, pick up a game card at one of the participating downtown businesses; fill it out and enter it at Sequim Spice and Tea, 139 W. Washington St., in time for the 7:30 p.m. prize drawing. No purchase is necessary, while players must be 21 or older to win. The winner need not be present for the announcement. Prizes include a two-night stay at the Cedarbrook Lavender and Herb Farm’s Seaview vacation rental, a cake-decorating class from That Takes The Cake, a knitting class from A Dropped Stitch, tickets and T-shirts for Purple Haze Daze at Purple Haze Lavender Farm, a half-hour class with MacTraders, cobalt-blue earrings from West Coast Sea Glass and other gifts. Here’s a cross-section of places to participate in the game and see what’s new on the creative scene.

Love: Better than the revelers dreamed Words aren’t everything. The body language and general frolic bring the story to life — and this play has proved so popular during the past two years that OTA has added a second performance and expanded the seating in the hall, which is turned into what’s affectionately called an Elizabethan House of Revelry. Patrons are invited to come in costume, because the players will stroll among the tables, regaling everyone with poetic dialogue. New to the production this year are Kai Lavatai as Fabian, Olivia’s attendant, and Jennifer Horton, who played Truvy in 2015’s “Steel Magnolias” at OTA, as Olivia’s gentlewoman Maria. Also appearing are Elizabeth Duval as Curio and Valentine, and Steve Schultz
