Transit maps deep cuts if tax bid fails 100 fewer bus hours weekly are forecast By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — Jefferson Transit directors are planning for service cutbacks while hoping that voters approve a measure that will make them unnecessary. The board, which has placed a 0.3 percent sales tax increase on the Feb. 8 special election ballot, is expected to approve a 2011 budget Dec. 28 that does not include projections of revenue from the proposed tax increase. That will mean decreasing public bus operation from 450 to 350 hours per week, resulting in cutting back routes and eliminating Sunday service, Executive Director Peggy Hanson said. At a special meeting Tuesday, the board received from Hanson and Finance Manager Sara Crouch projections of a $3.8 million budget in 2011, down from this year’s budget of $4.1 million. Transit Board directors are expected to approve a final budget at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 28, at Mountain View Commons, 1919 Blaine St., Port Townsend. Proposed cuts would not affect service in West Jefferson County, where the bus service is considered a “lifeline” for residents of Forks. Hanson told the board that, if the system were to implement cuts in the western part of the county, cuts in the eastern portion would be less severe. Voters will be asked Feb. 8 to approve a 0.3 percent sales tax increase, which would add 3 cents of new sales tax to every $10 purchase.

WSU Jefferson leader to retire

Passage of the measure would mean no cuts in service, Hanson has said. The measure, which would not add new revenue to Jefferson Hanson Transit until September, would generate about $1.1 million for Jefferson Transit, according to projections. If the measure passes, it will bring the Jefferson County sales tax rate to 9 percent. There are enough reserves to keep the system going without cutbacks if the extra funds are forthcoming, Couch said.

Immediate cutbacks

If the measure is not approved, preparations for the cutbacks would begin immediately, but they would not take effect for several months, Hanson said. Hanson had originally favored putting the sales tax measure on the November ballot, but the board — which includes all three Jefferson County commissioners and two members of the Port Townsend City Council — declined to place the measure on the general election ballot because it felt it would compete with Proposition 1, which voters passed Nov. 2 with 56.3 percent of the vote. The county placed Proposition 1, which raised the sales tax by 0.3 percent to 8.7 percent effective April 1, on the ballot. Sixty percent of the revenue will go toward county programs, with 40 percent to the city of Port Townsend. Passage of the county’s measure made Jefferson County’s sales tax the highest on the North Olympic Peninsula. Turn

‘Time for me to move on,’ extension chief says By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News

PORT HADLOCK — Jefferson County will lose one of its most vocal supporters of agriculture, education and social programs when Washington State University Extension Executive Director Katherine Baril retires at the end of this month. In a letter announcing her resignation Tuesday, Baril said she was excited about the future. “The time has come for me to move on to pursue some other interests; to devote more time with my family, friends and garden; to weigh and embrace other offers and opportunities that are before me now,” she wrote. “I’ll be changing the shape of my days and the scope of my focus, but I’ll be staying

in our community.” “It’s really time right now,” Baril, 63, said of her decision. “You know when you have done really good work, and I have accomplished many of my goals, teaching people how to feed and support their families.” The extension office, which was the first of its kind in the state, does this in two ways. It supports agricultural programs like 4-H and teaches sustainable agricultural techniques to county residents. Its affiliation with Washington State University brings course material to people who would have to drive to the big city in order to go to class. Turn

PORT TOWNSEND — It’s agreed: East Jefferson Fire-Rescue can go ahead with its planned $4.2 million bond issue, and the city of Port Townsend will pay the cost of it. For now. The Port Townsend City Council on Monday night approved an interim amendment to its interlocal agreement with the district for fire and emergency medical services. The agreement is a temporary fix for an approximate $600,000 disparity between what the city should be paying for services and what the district provides. A levy rejected by city voters in August was intended to help fill the gap. District property taxpayers agreed in April to up their contri-

ELIZABETH EDWARDS, 61, who as the wife of former Sen. John Edwards gave America an intimate look at a candidate’s marriage by sharing his quest for the 2008 presidential nomination as she struggled with incurable cancer and, secretly, with his infidelity, died Tuesday morning at her home in Chapel Hill, N.C. On Monday, two family friends said that Mrs. Edwards’ cancer had spread to her liver and Mrs. that doctors Edwards had advised in 2010 against further medical treatment. In a life of idyllic successes and crushing reverses, Mrs. Edwards was an accomplished lawyer, the mother of four children and the wife of a wealthy, handsome senator with sights on the White House.

cancer struck her at age 55, the political dreams died and, within months, her husband admitted to having had an extramarital affair with a campaign videographer. The scandal over the affair faded after his disclosure in 2008. But in 2009, Mrs. Edwards resurrected it in a new book and interviews and television appearances, telling how her husband had misrepresented the infidelity to her, rocked their marriage and spurned her advice to abandon his run for the presidency, a decision in which she ultimately acquiesced. Last January, on the eve of new disclosures in a book by a former political aide, John Edwards admitted he had fathered a child with the videographer. Soon afterward, he and Mrs. Edwards separated legally. Mrs. Edwards, a savvy political adviser who took on major roles in her husband’s two campaigns for the White House, learned she had a breast tumor the size of a half-dollar on the day after

Election Day 2004, when the Democratic ticket — Sen. John Kerry of Massachusetts and Edwards, the running mate from North Carolina — lost to President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney. Radiation and chemotherapy appeared to put the cancer into remission. In a best-selling memoir, Saving Graces: Finding Solace and Strength from Friends and Strangers (Broadway Books, 2006), Mrs. Edwards chronicled her fight for survival. But in March 2007, with her husband again chasing a presidential nomination, John and Mrs. Edwards disclosed that her cancer had returned. Mrs. Edwards soon became her husband’s most valued adviser, a role undiminished by her illness. “I trust her more than I trust anybody in the world,” John Edwards said a month before abandoning his presidential race. “She’s herself, and fearless. I don’t think she’s intimidated by or afraid of anything.”

Looking Back From the files of The Associated Press

TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, Dec. 8, the 342nd day of 2010. There are 23 days left in the year. Today’s Highlight in History: ■ On Dec. 8, 1941, the United States entered World War II as Congress declared war against Japan, a day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. On this date: ■ In 1776, during the Revolutionary War, Gen. George Washington’s retreating army crossed the Delaware River from New Jersey into Pennsylvania. ■ In 1854, Pope Pius IX proclaimed the Catholic dogma of the Immaculate Conception, which holds that Mary, the mother of Jesus, was free of original sin from the moment of her own conception.

■ In 1863, President Abraham Lincoln announced his plan for the Reconstruction of the South. ■ In 1886, the American Federation of Labor was founded in Columbus, Ohio. ■ In 1940, the Chicago Bears defeated the Washington Redskins, 73-0, in the NFL Championship Game, which was carried on network radio for the first time by the Mutual Broadcasting System; the announcer was Red Barber. ■ In 1949, the Chinese Nationalist government moved from the Chinese mainland to Formosa as the Communists pressed their attacks. ■ In 1960, NBC broadcast a new, color videotape version of the TV special “Peter Pan” starring

Mary Martin. Two previous telecasts, also starring Martin, had been performed live in 1955 and 1956. ■ In 1980, rock star John Lennon was shot to death outside his New York City apartment building by an apparently deranged fan. ■ In 1982, a man demanding an end to nuclear weapons held the Washington Monument hostage, threatening to blow it up with explosives he claimed were inside a van. After a 10-hour standoff, Norman D. Mayer was shot dead by police; it turned out there were no explosives. ■ In 1987, President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev signed a treaty at the White House calling for

destruction of intermediate-range nuclear missiles. ■ Ten years ago: A divided Florida Supreme Court ordered, 4-3, an immediate hand count of about 45,000 disputed ballots and put Democrat Al Gore within 154 votes of Republican George W. Bush. ■ Five years ago: A Southwest Airlines jet landing at Chicago Midway International Airport during a snowstorm slid off the runway and onto a busy street, killing a boy in a car. ■ One year ago: Ohio executed murderer Kenneth Biros by performing the nation’s first lethal injection using a single drug, a supposedly less painful method than previous executions that required three drugs.

Briefly: Nation 5 Ivy Leaguers charged with selling drugs NEW YORK — Five Columbia University students were charged Tuesday with selling LSD-spiked candy and other drugs at three fraternity houses and other residences on the Ivy League campus, with two allegedly claiming they needed the drug money to cover tuition. Police arrested Christopher Coles, Harrison David, Adam Klein, Jose Stephen Perez and Michael Wymbs at dawn Tuesday at the prestigious school in upper Manhattan. The students — all 20-yearolds except Perez, who’s 22 — were hauled into a Manhattan courtroom later in the day, shackled together and wearing Columbia and fraternity sweat shirts. They pleaded not guilty to multiple drug dealing charges alleging they were supplied by violent traffickers. The five were to remain in custody until they could make bail ranging from $20,000 to $50,000 in cash. Authorities called it one of the largest drug takedowns on a New York City college campus in recent memory.

Tax deal necessary due to economy, Obama says By Stephen Ohlemacher and Charles Babington The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama struggled Tuesday to prevent wholesale defections by fellow Democrats that could sink the tax deal he worked out with Republicans — angry opposition that could subject millions of Americans to a big holiday-season tax increase. Many GOP lawmakers seemed ready to embrace the ObamaGOP compromise and declare victory. The question was whether enough Democrats would join them in support, especially in the House, where liberal resentment of the president’s concessions on tax breaks for the wealthiest runs strong. Obama went on national TV to give a ringing defense of his compromise, declaring it the neces-

sary price for heading off a tax increase that neither taxpayers nor the weak economy could stand and for gaining more months of unemployment payments for millions of jobless workers. The compromise plan would extend unemployment benefits for millions of people and reduce Social Security payroll taxes for a year. Workers would pay a 4.2 percent tax rate instead of 6.2 percent.

Dems criticize tax plan Democratic leaders in the House criticized the tax plan, sometimes harshly, but stopped short of saying they would try to block it. In a 35-minute news conference, Obama chastised liberals for seeking ideological purity that would cause legislative logjams on vital issues. He didn’t spare Republicans, either, likening them

to “hostage takers” willing to hurt the great majority of Americans for the “holy grail” of extending tax cuts for millionaires. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was noncommittal before and after Obama’s afternoon appearance, saying she would discuss the matter with fellow Democrats in a closed evening meeting. “So far, the response has not been very good,” she said after meeting with other Democratic leaders. Another House Democratic leader, Rep. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, said he couldn’t recommend the package to his colleagues. Obama said no one is entirely happy with the compromise he crafted with Republicans, but “it’s a good deal for the American people.” “This country was founded on compromise,” he said.

WikiLeaks founder arrested in sex-crimes investigation By Cassandra Vinograd and Raphael G. Satter The Associated Press

LONDON — WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was arrested and jailed without bail Tuesday in a sex-crimes investigation, but his organization scarcely missed a beat, releasing a new batch of the secret cables that U.S. officials said are damaging America’s security and relations worldwide. A month after dropping out of public view, the 39-year-old Australian surrendered to Scotland Yard to answer a warrant issued for his arrest Assange by Sweden. He is wanted for questioning after two women accused him of having sex with them without a condom and without their consent. Assange said he would fight

extradition to Sweden, setting the stage for what could be a pitched legal battle. And as if to prove that it can’t be intimidated, WikiLeaks promptly released a dozen new cables, including details of a NATO defense plan for Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania that made Russia bristle.

‘Good news,’ Gates says The Pentagon welcomed Assange’s arrest. “That sounds like good news to me,” U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said on a visit to Afghanistan. WikiLeaks spokesman Kristinn Hrafnsson insisted Assange’s arrest and the decision Tuesday by both Visa and MasterCard to stop processing donations to the group “will not change our operation.” Hrafnsson said the group has no plans yet to carry through on its threat to release en masse some of its most sensitive U.S. documents if it comes under attack.

At a court hearing in London, Assange showed no reaction as Judge Howard Riddle denied him bail while he awaits an extradition hearing Tuesday. The judge said Assange might flee if released. When the judge asked him whether he would agree to be extradited, Assange said: “I do not consent.”

U.S. investigates espionage It was not publicly known which jail Assange was sent to, since British police never reveal that for privacy and security reasons. Some prisoners occasionally get Internet access, though only under close supervision. The U.S. government is investigating whether Assange can be prosecuted for espionage or other offenses. On Tuesday, Pentagon and State Department officials said some foreign officials have suddenly grown reluctant to trust the U.S. because of the secrets spilled by WikiLeaks.

West: Doctor dressed as Elvis saves Vegas runner

West: Deer attack, injure barking dog in Oregon

Nation: New York town buried by 4 feet of snow

World: Book on birds sells for more than $10 million

It wasn’t blue suede shoes but a pair of sneakers that led a San Francisco doctor dressed as Elvis Presley to a woman who passed out at a Las Vegas restaurant after a marathon. Claudio Palma told the Las Vegas Review-Journal he was dressed as the King after Sunday’s Las Vegas Rock ’n’ Roll half-marathon when he performed CPR and resuscitated another runner at the Burger Bar at Mandalay Place. The 36-year-old was clad in a jumpsuit, sideburns and scarf for the race and may have looked like Presley, but in real life, he’s an anesthesiologist. Palma said paramedics then arrived, and the woman gave him a weird look and told him she was OK.

A Bend, Ore., woman said three deer attacked her barking dog and left the pet with head wounds and a punctured chest, but she’s expected to make a full recovery. Tiffany Rounds said she often sees deer in central Oregon but never had them in her backyard before Thursday. Her small dog, Daisy, clearly thought it was inappropriate and went flying out the door, barking. Rounds said that the six-point buck and two does started beating the dog with their hooves and then the buck tried to get her with his antlers. Wildlife biologist Steven George said deer react to a predator that could hurt or even kill them.

Bands of snow blasting off the Great Lakes buried one western New York town under 4 feet of snow and caused a pileup that left motorists stranded for hours on a stretch of Interstate 80 in northwestern Pennsylvania. The lake-effect storms were whipped by gusty winds, closing schools and disrupting travel as far north as the Lake Ontario shore. In Randolph, N.Y., a rural town 50 miles south of Buffalo, motorists were banned from driving Tuesday after the area received 40 inches officially, with some seeing even more. “I think my armpits are higher than that, so I’d say 4 feet,” Town Supervisor Dale Senn said over the phone.

It’s quite a nest egg. John James Audubon’s Birds of America, a rare blend of art, natural history and craftsmanship, fetched more than $10 million at auction Tuesday, making it the world’s most expensive published book. With its 435 hand-colored illustrations of birds drawn to size, the volume is one of the best preserved editions of Audubon’s 19th-century masterpiece. The sale at Sotheby’s auction house had been anticipated for months by wealthy collectors. The book sold for $10,270,000 to an anonymous collector bidding by telephone, the auction house said.

Car wrecked while two debate who should drive Peninsula Daily News

BRINNON — A disagreement about who should drive led to a Mercedes too damaged for anyone to drive it, State Patrol said. Michelle Seton, 35, of Port Townsend was driving a 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300 south on U.S. Highway 101 about three miles north of Brinnon at about 4:16 p.m. Monday when she and her passenger, Richard Butler, 35, of Brinnon began arguing heatedly about who should drive, State Patrol said. Seton slammed on the brakes and told Butler he could drive, but the sudden action — coupled with icy conditions — caused the car to slide into a guardrail and

spin around, landing in the ditch on the northbound side of the road, State Patrol said. Neither Seton nor Butler was injured, but the car was too damaged to drive. It was towed away. Butler left the scene before police arrived, so officers only had Seton’s account of the incident, said Lt. Chris Old of the State Patrol. Seton was issued a citation for driving too fast for conditions, Old said. “If there was no ice in the road, there wouldn’t have been an accident,” he said. Seton told the State Patrol that both she and Butler were wearing seat belts at the time of the wreck.

The Police Department said Tuesday that its internal investigation found that Officer Ian Walsh “performed his duties within the scope of department policies and procedures.” The girl was 17 at the time of the June 14 altercation. When Walsh attempted to stop a friend of hers for jaywalking, the girl shoved the officer, who responded

by punching her. She later apologized to Walsh. The girl pleaded guilty to fourth-degree assault, a gross misdemeanor. She was sentenced to probation and community service.

Delay also would risk a negative change in the bond market, which is currently quite volatile, and could be bad for the district’s proposed bond measure. “It’s a fair guess that it’s going up,” City Council member George Randels said of the bond market. Fire district commissioners approved the agreement and the bond issue at a special meeting Monday before the City Council action. In other business, the council also: ■ Gave final approval to its own $3.8 million bond measure for improvements to sidewalks, utilities and the Port Townsend Library.

■ Extended the expiring terms for the seven interim members of the Port Townsend Development Authority in anticipation of a joint meeting in January and completion of their final report on recommended job descriptions for permanent members. ■ Approved a contract with public works and general government city employees unions that continues their agreement for no cost-of-living pay increases and authorized the city manager to approve a similar agreement with unionized police officers.

Construction begins in Sequim on 2 more stores By Jeff Chew

Peninsula Daily News

SEQUIM — Work began Tuesday on a $4.5 million commercial project off West Washington Street to build two big-box stores — Ross Dress for Less and Grocery Outlet. Tom Lee, a developer representative for Madison Development Group in Kirkland, said the company secured building permits with the city of Sequim late Friday after lawyers for the city and developer hashed out an agreement. “The project should be completed by the end of June,” Lee said Tuesday as heavy equipment began to move dirt around the site. Ross Dress for Less’ structure will be 27,690 square feet, and the Grocery Outlet building is planned to be 17,784 square feet, the developer’s plans showed. The northern half of the 7.61-acre site will be used for a paved parking lot. Grocery Outlet will be constructed closest to Costco

Wholesale Warehouse, while Ross will be adjacent to the Home Depot site, plans showed. Vegetation was scraped from the new big-box store site last week before the building permits were secured, which is allowed under city law.

Built simultaneously The stores are being built simultaneously, Lee said. This week, a temporary chain-link fence was put up around the work site after heavy equipment began moving ground to make way for concrete pads for the foundations. Madison Sequim LLC submitted a building permit application in June for the two store buildings. No additional street access development will take place because trafficrelated improvements were designed for long-term buildout, including two roundabouts along Washington Street at River Road and Ninth Avenue and a

traffic signal at Priest Road, city Interim Planning Director Joe Irvin said. At Ross, designer and brand-name fashions for women, men, kids and home should have everyday savings of 20 percent to 60 percent compared with department and specialty stores. Ross, a national discount emporium of brand-name clothing, footwear, jewelry, bedding and housewares, has 903 locations in 27 states, including one in Silverdale. The Grocery Outlet, headquartered in Berkeley, Calif., has more than 130 stores — 35 of them in Washington state — and calls itself an “extreme value retailer” of food, beer, wine, toys and personalcare products.

foot grocery store addition to the west side of the existing 113,000-square-foot Walmart store off West Washington Street at Priest Road. The Walmart grocery store project is valued at $3.8 million. Walmart spokeswoman Tiffany Moffatt said ground would be broken on the addition at a time next year to be announced and that the existing store would be remodeled. Construction should take between 12 and 18 months, she said. It is anticipated that about 85 new associates will be hired in addition to about 200 now employed at the store.

Groups mull further appeal of Nippon Paper’s biomass permit By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — The seven environmental groups who lost an appeal of the shoreline development permit issued to Nippon Paper Industries USA Inc.’s $71 million biomass project are investigating possibly appealing the Port Angeles City Council’s decision. The groups are mulling whether to find a way to appeal the Port Angeles City Council’s decision Monday to affirm the Planning Commission’s approval of the permit, said Diana Sommerville, spokeswoman for all seven of the groups, on Tuesday. The seven environmental groups fighting the project are Port Townsend AirWatchers, the Olympic Forest Coalition, the Olympic Environmental Council, No Biomass Burn of Seattle, the Center for Environmental Law and Policy of Spokane, the World Temperate Rainforest Network and the Cascade Chapter of the Sierra Club.

On that issue, the council voted 5-1, with council member Max Mania opposing the idea that the Planning Commission had correctly categorized the biomass as an accessory to the mill. The four issues unanimously voted on were: ■ The Planning Commission had adequate procedures and time lines during the open-record hearing for the permit.

The environmental groups said the time at the hearing was inadequate. commission’s ■ The action was not clearly erroneous, as had been claimed by the appellants. ■ The commission acted within its jurisdiction. ■ The commission correctly interpreted the law.

Trial for murder opens in Forks By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — Attorneys during Tuesday’s opening arguments in the first-degree murder trial of Etienne Choquette promised a Clallam County Superior Court jury two different tales of what happened the night Antonio Rodriguez Maldonado was shot to death in Forks. Forks police officers said Choquette, a Forks resident, shot Rodriguez Maldonado, 33, at about 11 p.m. Sept. 24, 2009 — first in the upper body, then in the back of the head. A .38-caliber revolver was found in the Quillayute River. Deputy Prosecutor Ann Lundwall told the eight women and seven men on the jury that Choquette had taken justice onto himself. “This is a case where the defendant became a vigilante to impress a woman,” she said. If convicted and if he has no prior felonies, Choquette could be sentenced from 20½ years to life in prison and fined up to $50,000.

tion near the intersection where the shooting took place. Choquette’s attorney, Gary Sund, said that the girl identifying Choquette’s SUV gave three numbers from the license plate but that only one was correct for Choquette’s vehicle. Lundwall said that Choquette had confessed to police and that he told them where to find the gun used in the shooting. Sund said that DNA evidence, which used cigarette butts to link him to the scene, was inconclusive and that Choquette confessed only to protect a woman he had a “great affection” for. Sund — who referred to Choquette by his nickname, “Lucky” — said that his client had confessed after a period during his questioning that was “off the record,” or not tape recorded. He said that Choquette would later testify that during that session, he believed he was making a deal with Forks Police Officer Darrell Elmore that he would confess to manslaughter if White were released and he had a reasonable bail. “Here is where the rubber meets the road,” Sund said. “That deal did not get kept.” Sund said that ultimately, the case would come down to the credibility of Choquette and Elmore. He said he would call into question the credibility of Elmore during the case. The trial is expected to last between eight and 10 days.

The prosecution contends that Choquette had become close with Forks resident Kellie White, who was the estranged girlfriend of Rodriguez Maldonado, Lundwall said. “The police found that Kellie White had told him that Tony was abusing her and that she would be better off if he were dead — that he would never leave her alone unless he were __________ dead,” Lundwall said.

City Attorney Bill Bloor said the groups might be able to appeal the decision to the state Shorelines Hearings Board but that there were many possibilities dependent on the approach they wanted to take. Even if the shoreline development permit decision is not appealed again, the groups plan to file an appeal with the state Pollution Control Hearings Board after a decision is made on an air emissions permit. Harold Norlund, manager of Nippon’s mill in Port Angeles, said Tuesday that the company will request an air emissions permit from the Olympic Region Clean Air Agency once the City Council officially adopts the legal written decision at its Dec. 21 meeting. “We would like to get going in February or March — probably March,” he said. He said the mill hopes to have the biomass up and running for the second half of 2012. The council formally voted Monday night on five points of law brought forth by the appellants, siding officially with the Planning Commission’s decision. Those five votes will be used in a legal opinion to be written by city staff, the council unanimously decided Monday. Four of the issues the council voted on were unanimous, with council member Brad Collins absent because of a death in his family. The only opposed vote, and the most contentious issue Monday night, was whether the Planning Commission should have designated the biomass project as a utility, since it will be generating electricity.

Appeals court finds double jeopardy By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — A state appellate court vacated one of two charges for a woman who gave her daughter a toxic drink in a murder-suicide attempt on Christmas in 2006. The decision, which was released by the three-judge panel Tuesday, vacates a first-degree assault conviction and retains the firstdegree attempted murder conviction for Rhonda L. Marchi. The mother of three gave her then-10-year-old daughter a concoction of crushed prescription pills partially dissolved in grape juice in a failed attempt to kill her during a Christmas Day visit in 2006. Marchi also drank the same drug cocktail. She awoke several hours later and phoned 9-1-1 after find-

ing her daughter unconscious. The appeals court judges determined that because both convictions resulted from the same action, it constituted double jeopardy for her to be convicted on both charges.

Concurrent sentences Marchi is currently serving 12 years for attempted murder and 10 years for assault in the Washington Corrections Center for Women in Gig Harbor, with the sentences being served concurrently. The case will be sent back to Clallam County Superior Court for resentencing. Although Marchi also appealed the attempted murder conviction, saying her poor mental health left her unable to understand the consequences of her

actions, the appeals court let that conviction stand. Greg Link, Marchi’s attorney in the appeals case, said that he would have to discuss it with Marchi but that he expected to appeal the decision not to vacate the attempted murder conviction to the state Surpreme Court. “I think their analysis of diminished capacity is not correct,” Link said. “I’m not sure it is entirely legally sound.

Review considered “We disagree, and we will probably ask for further review.” Brian Wendt, who argued for Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney Deb Kelly’s office, said that he believed that the judges’ decision to retain the attempted murder conviction was legally sound.

He said in his brief that he cited several other cases dealing with the same issue and that the court had ruled in favor of the state. “Take, for example, selfdefense — self-defense adds a new element, and it would make the actions of the person lawful,” Wendt said. “But in diminished capacity, it goes to intent — it doesn’t make the actions lawful. “The defense was arguing that the burden of proof was on the state to prove lack of diminished capacity. “She has every constitutional right to seek review, but it becomes a much steeper uphill battle because she is basically asking them to overturn the established authority on the very same issue.” The case must be appealed within 30 days starting Tuesday,

Wendt said. If it is not appealed, a hearing will be set in Superior Court to remove the assault conviction and sentencing. “It won’t change the length of her sentence or the crime she was convicted of committing,” Wendt said. “It is a clerical issue.”

commit the crime,” Van Deren wrote. Appeals Court Judges Lisa Worswick and David Armstrong concurred in the opinion. Marchi — diagnosed as having major depressive disorder and borderline personality disorder — claimed she was trying to protect her daughter from the child’s father, who lived in Idaho. The child testified during sentencing that her father had never harmed her. Friends and family of Marchi said during trial that her depression had peaked in the month before the murder-suicide attempt.

In the opinion, Appeals Court Judge Marywave Van Deren wrote that diminished capacity was something for the jury to take in mind rather than something that would exonerate someone from a crime. “Neither diminished capacity nor intoxication is a complete defense but, __________ rather, is evidence the jury may take into account when Reporter Paige Dickerson can determining whether the be reached at 360-417-3535 or at defendant could form the paige.dickerson@peninsuladaily requisite mental state to news.com.

Death and Memorial Notice H.L. ‘Vern’ Bailey July 5, 1920 November 27, 2010 H.L. “Vern” Bailey, 90, of Brinnon died Saturday, November 27, 2010, at his home. Vern was born July 5, 1920, at Cottonwood Creek, Hot Springs County, Wyoming, to Wirt and Geneva (Hedgecock) Bailey. He came to Brinnon in 1939 to visit his family, and met Ida Martha Bunnell there. They married in Quilcene on August 29, 1941, and bought 80 acres upriver from Ida’s parents on the Dosewallips River, where they farmed, raised their family, and enjoyed 69 years of marriage. Ida’s father taught Vern to log using a crosscut saw and springboard. A World War II veteran, Vern served with the U.S. Army in the 21st Infantry Regiment, 24th Division, from 1944 through 1946. As a Combat Infantryman, he was assigned to the Southern Philippines and Luzon for the Asiatic Pacific Campaign, where he earned the Purple Heart. After his discharge, he returned to logging and farming and built the family home. His last 10 years of employment was for the Washington State Shellfish Lab at Point Whitney, Brinnon. Vern and Ida joined a group headed by Ruth Mueller to start a church in Brinnon. The Brinnon Community Church was formed and they became

Mr. Bailey charter members. They helped build the first church building, which was finished and dedicated in 1959. For many years, Vern served on the church board and as a deacon and trustee. The Brinnon Cemetery was one acre, donated by Ewell Brinnon. Vern and Ida were instrumental in setting up a cemetery board, forming Jefferson County Cemetery District No. 1, and obtaining additional land for the cemetery. Vern served as Chairman of the Board for 27 years. Vern served on the Brinnon School Board for several terms. The Brinnon school and gym were built during his first terms of office. Bill Whitney of Whitney Gardens, a good friend, taught Vern and Ida how to hybridize plants. They specialized in deciduous azaleas and developed a small nursery business. They named and registered several of their best

azaleas, including Buttons & Bows and Brinnon Beauty. Vern and Ida loved horseback and backpack camping trips into the Olympics, taking their daughters and later their grandchildren. One of many hobbies was photographing wild flowers, Mount Townsend being a favorite spot. Vern and Ida were always interested in the history of Brinnon. They spent about 15 years researching and collecting photographs from the pioneer families. Their book, Brinnon — A Scrapbook of History, was published in 1997. In 2010, the Baileys donated all rights to their research material and book to the Quilcene Historical Society, which reprinted the book and released it in June 2010.

Death and Memorial Notice Catherine Louise Burke October 18, 1929 November 30, 2010 Catherine Louise Burke of Port Angeles passed away on November 30, 2010. She was born on October 18, 1929, in Leavenworth, Kansas, to Leo and Genevieve (O’Leary) Connelly. Catherine married her high school sweetheart, Joseph Burke, on July 16, 1949, at the cathedral in Leavenworth, Kansas. Her heart broke at his passing in 2001. The family moved to Washington state in 1967, living on the Olympic Peninsula and the Seattle area. A lifelong Catholic, Catherine was a member of Queen of Angels Church, where a Mass will be said for her at a later date. At her request, there will be no services. She is survived by her son, Thomas Michael Burke; daughter, Mary Carlson and her husband, Jeff; and daughter, Ann Burke; as well as two granddaughters, Amanda Swain and Siobhan Ecker; and two great-grandchildren, Savannah Burke and Miles Ecker. Family was a center in Catherine’s life. Catherine expressed several years ago that she hoped to live long enough to see her cherished great-granddaughter, Savannah, be old enough not to need

Mrs. Burke her care while her mother worked. She watched Savannah from the time she was 1 until she turned 12. Absolutely nothing would get in the way of this commitment. Savannah wrote in her Facebook page upon Catherine’s death, “RIP Catherine Burke. You were the best Grandma anyone could ever ask for. . . . Someone I could always look up to and rely on and now you are gone. . . . I don’t know what I’m gonna do without you. . . .” Another goal Catherine had was to see granddaughter, Siobhan, have a child. She lived to see this when Miles was born. She would count down the days until his visit. They made quite a pair, on her motorized wheelchair; Miles hanging on the back, two smiling faces side by side, one old, one young. Catherine was a won-

derful friend, always there with a welcoming smile and listening ear. One can not write Catherine’s obituary without noting her commitment to animals. She was featured in Peninsula Daily News feeding her stray cats in the alley downtown, which she did for at least 15 years. Rain, wind or snow, it didn’t matter. They were hungry and waiting for her. She was a great cook, a voracious reader of novels, memoirs and history. She loved movies and spent many a Sunday afternoon at the theater. Joe and Catherine would think nothing of driving to Port Townsend or Seattle to see a movie. Catherine will be greatly missed, loved and long remembered. A kind soul who made a difference. There are three things that only God knows: “the beginning of things, the cause of things, and the end of things” God who knows the end of things may not reveal satisfying answers today, tomorrow, or even years from now But we’ve been left a Promise that one day We will understand A Welsh Proverb

Commentary

Fishing for something tourists like It was daylight on the water when I noticed a potato floating in the river. One look told me this Pat was spoor of the recent Neal Snoopy Rod Fishing Tournament conducted on the Bogachiel River. It’s a charity event held every year about this time, when grown men pay money to fish for steelhead with miniature fishing rods that are decorated with Snoopy, Barbie and other kids’ themes while shooting potato guns at each other. Fishermen travel to Forks from all over to compete in this contest.

Forks is a fishing town. Steelhead fishing helps keep the lights on. Still, the Snoopy rod tourney can make the locals a little restless. People tend to take their steelhead fishing seriously out on the West End of the Olympic Peninsula. Steelhead fishing may not be a matter of life and death — it’s much more important than that. This can lead to friction at a predawn boat launch. Especially if the first guy at the launch finds his boat, trailer and every bit of fishing gear he owns tangled together with hundreds of plastic zip ties by his practicaljoker friends. Each of these zip ties has to be painstakingly cut out in the dark as scores of other anglers wait in a growing line for their turn to launch. Tempers flare. There are

uncharitable remarks about tourists in general like, “Why don’t they all go back to where they came from?” Maybe it was a twisted sense of revenge that had me driving to Seattle on the day of the Snoopy Rod Tourney, but it was payback time. I was going to show those city slickers a thing or two about being a lost tourist. Driving in Seattle can be a challenge. The first thing you want to remember is to stay off the freeway because once you get on, you might never get off. If you are lost while driving on a Seattle freeway and you see a big white arch, turn around. That’s the Canadian border. If you drive over a wide river, that’s the Columbia. You’re in Oregon. Turn around. If for whatever reason you find yourself driving in high snowy mountains when you’re lost in Seattle, get a clue. You’re

Peninsula Voices Good, bad guys This really irritates me. I got my truck stuck in the woods, and when I went back to get it out, it had been vandalized. In case you did not know it, the woods are a little like the downtown area of a town or city: By day, it is populated by basically “good” people, and by night, the “street” and “party” people take it over. (Don’t jump down my throat for overgeneralizing. I know that is not 100 percent true in either direction.) It turns out the same is true in the woods. I have never met a “bad guy” in the woods, in the daylight. People are kind and polite, and all form of users share the woods with mutual respect. But by night, there is a swarm of young males out in the woods, speeding around in the dark with their knobby-tired vehicles. And I am sure it was one of them who broke into my truck and broke my back slider-window out (which can only be repaired by replacing the entire window).

on a pass to Eastern Washington. Turn around again. It took several hours of circling before finally reaching my tourist destination: the Seattle Art Museum. I was there to see the Picasso exhibit. I thought it would revive my failing career as an arts reviewer, but I had to find a place to park first. Finding a parking spot in Seattle was as tough as catching a 20-pound steelhead on the Bogachiel. So I just doubleparked instead. That’s when I noticed the truck was smoking a bit. Must have overheated on the pass. Meanwhile, it was leaking enough fluids to be a toxic waste site on wheels, but I thought it would help keep the dust down on the city streets. My way of giving back. The museum was jam-packed

with art lovers. Which can make it a real hassle to see anything. Luckily, I was wearing a fishing vest with some rotting sand shrimp in the pockets. It’s an old art reviewer trick. It keeps the crowd moving for a clear view of the work, while I pester the locals with tourist questions like, “What is the elevation?” “Does it always rain here?” And, “What is that smell?” The Picasso exhibit was spectacular. I drove back to the Olympic Peninsula and kissed the ground. It was good to be alive.

The part I hate about this is that I am also sure that this same swarm of young men would have been the ones to help me if mine and their timing had been a little better. They “wouldda” been thrilled at the chance to help me get out of that ditch. Why can’t people either be good guys or bad guys? Why must they be both? Paul C Daley, Port Angeles

Right and wrong This letter celebrates the Port Angeles Police Department staff from Downrigger’s restaurant and the kind citizens of our community. In early October, while dining at Downrigger’s with visiting, out-of-state family members, an SUV backed into our car in the parking lot. What aim — that SUV and our car were the only vehicles in the entire lot. The SUV driver left the scene without stopping, but good witnesses stepped up to help.

Restaurant staff and customers got the SUV’s license. Staff told us how unethical it was for the driver to leave the accident without stopping. We so appreciated their expression of what is right and what is wrong with hit-and-run, even if it was not a person who was hit but only property that was damaged.

Within 10 minutes, Port Angeles police arrived, took witness statements and gave us a case number — awesome, and so professional. Our visiting family members from the San Francisco Bay area were dumbstruck at how much support we received and how fast the support was given. Evidently, we are not the only ones who know

how great it is to live in a community whose citizens step up for what is right. Our insurance company (Allstate) tracked down the SUV to Seattle and the uninsured owner, who denied all. But, with solid witness report, the Port Angeles police report and Allstate’s good efforts, the SUV owner took responsibility.

I recently visited Oregon and was pleased to find that the state required that an attendant fill your gas tank. As near as I could tell, there seemed to be no additional charge, as the gas prices were nearly the same, except for the tip. Just think how many young people or older people on Social Security that this would employ if we did the same in Washington. I just read that some 300,000 people were on unemployment presently. I’m sure that most recent high school graduates cant get unemployment and would be happy to work for basic wages. Please call your legislator. Do it today, as we need the surge. Eddy V. Maupin, Port Angeles

Obama needs a Big Idea to keep office Grow a spine. Flex some muscle. Man up! In Twitter-speak, the advice to President Barack Obama from his disheartened liberal base is to bulk up on the political equivalent of steroids, someTimothy thing to make this most cere- Egan bral of presidents more ripped and less reserved. They want “Bring It On, the Sequel”: Let Republicans deny unemployment benefits for two million people at Christmastime while giving Mr. Potter and his ilk another tax break. Then the president can get rid of “don’t ask, don’t tell” by executive order, just as Harry Truman integrated the armed forces. He can dare Republicans to dismantle a new health care law that prevents insurance companies from dropping people when they get sick. He can insist that the fledgling consumer protection bureau, the only bulwark in the federal

government against predatory lenders and credit card carnivores, be fully funded and staffed. Not. Gonna. Happen. One of the most revealing film clips from Obama’s past shows him at school when he became the first black president of a fractious Harvard Law Review. Young Obama, the college-age compromiser, looks eerily like middle-age Obama trying to be bipartisan at midterm. And there he was on Monday, giving in to tax cuts for all in return for a few favors for the middle class. But if he can’t change his personal nature, he can change the master narrative of his presidency. To do that, he needs a Big Idea. One of the mystifying paradoxes of Obama is how this gifted writer, this eloquent communicator, has not been able to come up with a simple, overarching governing frame. For Teddy Roosevelt, fighting monopoly capitalists at a time when the gap between the rich and everyone else was almost as great as it is today, it was the Square Deal — leverage for the little guy. Franklin Roosevelt expanded

his cousin’s social contract with the New Deal, which carried enough populist punch to help a New York politician with a moneyed accent win the heartland four times. John F. Kennedy had his New Frontier — pitch-perfect for the strutting Jet Age. And Ronald Reagan countered middle-class anxiety with Morning in America. Bill Clinton found his footing after the Oklahoma City bombings, rallying the country to oppose the forces of hate. Loser presidents, the singletermers, stand for nothing, but have opinions on everything. Think of Jimmy Carter or George H.W. Bush and only mush comes to mind. The verdict on Obama is still out. His approval rating is in the mid-40s, not bad for a man who took control during the worst economy since the Depression. Most polls have him higher than Clinton and Reagan at a similar time in office, and higher since the election revealed the heartless, corporate-owned face of his opposition. Truman’s party lost 55 seats in the House at midterm. Clinton

gave up 54. They were dead men. One-termers. Until they weren’t. Obama’s achievements — saving the auto industry, fixing much of the runaway financial sector, passing a health care law that, once fully understood, will be seen as historic — are not insignificant. They are monumental, even. But presidents do not win their way into voters’ hearts with legislative triumphs. Most Americans don’t know that they got a one-time tax cut from Obama, or that the bailouts may end up making money for the Treasury. The near-term goals — a freetrade agreement with South Korea, a nuclear arms treaty with Russia — will do nothing to change views. Weekly up and down score sheets are for the political-industrial complex. A Big Idea, understood by all, would provide a narrative framework for the upcoming skirmishes with Republicans, whose only idea is to keep rich people from paying their fair share of taxes. That, and denying Obama a second term. What may have lulled Obama into his thoughtful stupor was

the historic magnitude of his election. Yet being the first black president is not an idea. Hope is not a theme. Change We Can Believe In is not a governing principle. The Big Idea does not need to be grandiose. Simple is better. It has to show that Obama is on the side of average Americans, who, in turn, must believe the country is moving in the right direction despite a painful economy. He hit a few good notes on Monday in his speech to college students in North Carolina. Evoking American motivation to greatness after the Soviet Union launched the Sputnik in 1957, Obama said, “Our generation’s Sputnik moment is next.” What’s needed, he said, is “to do what Americans have always been known for: building, innovating, making things.” The words, the sentiment, the right impulses are all there in the White House. It’s up to the writer-president to put them together.

Harbor-Works loan forgiven By Tom Callis

Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The city of Port Angeles officially forgave its loan to Harbor-Works on Tuesday. The City Council voted 4-2, with council members Cherie Kidd and Max Mania opposed, to retire the outstanding $570,450 loan with the now-defunct public development authority. Council member Brad Collins was absent. Kidd said she voted against retiring the loan because she had voted against funding the HarborWorks Development Authority. The city and Port of Port Angeles each loaned Harbor-Works $650,000. Each received about $79,550 back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I recalled when we were asked to approve to create a Harbor-

Works, we were very specifically told . . . that the city wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to put any funds into this,â&#x20AC;? Kidd said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t support this because I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vote for the funds.â&#x20AC;? Mania, a critic of HarborWorks, said he voted no because he thought the motion should have referred to the loan as defaulted. Mayor Dan Di Guilio explained why he supported the loan and Harbor-Works itself despite criticism from some residents. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had hoped we would not get to this point where we would have to write this loan off,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When Harbor-Works came to us, I think a majority of the council at that time believed it was a good strategy to try to secure the Rayonier property . . . Until the very end, it was my position that, because we had loaned this money to Harbor-Works and we were

hoping to be reimbursed at some point down in the future and benefit from any development that may occur, that it would have been an investment in the city that would pay off for us.â&#x20AC;? Port Executive Director Jeff Robb said the port commission will retire the loan when it formally closes the 2010 budget Jan. 10. The city, with support from the port, formed Harbor-Works in May 2008 to acquire Rayonier Inc.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former mill site, assist in its environmental cleanup and direct its redevelopment. The public development authority dissolved in October after Rayonier chose to end negotiations.

Clallam to tap $1.43 million from reserves By Rob Ollikainen

Peninsula housing authorities merge

Peninsula Daily News

By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The housing authorities of Clallam and Jefferson counties have merged into the Peninsula Housing Authority. Clallam County commissioners approved Tuesday a joint resolution with Jefferson County and the city of Port Townsend to establish the new agency. Jefferson County commissioners and the Port Townsend City Council already had approved the resolution. The idea is to expand Clallam Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s robust housing authority into an area that was being underserved. Jefferson County had a housing authority board but no staff. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a team effort, starting from back in July with Jim [Jones] and [Budget Director] Kay [Stevens].â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We got there. We have a good budget. We are trying to do our best to live within our means and not ask the public for new tax revenue.â&#x20AC;? The draft budget has no cost-of-living increase for the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 391 full-time equivalent employees. It does allow for step increases, however, if an employee has

Pam Tietz, Clallam County Housing Authority executive director, becomes the executive director of the Peninsula Housing Authority. The 35 to 40 employees in the agency will now cover both counties. Nothing else will change. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Congratulations on having regional cooperation,â&#x20AC;? Clallam County Commissioner Mike Doherty told Tietz on Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a better chance to get some types of funding because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regional.â&#x20AC;? The Peninsula Housing Authority will be governed by an eight-member Board of Housing Commissioners. Clallam County commissioners will appoint five members to

earned one. Jones and Commissioners Mike Doherty, Steve Tharinger and Chapman will not get a pay raise next year. Examples of small reductions in service include the recent changes to the customer service hours in the Prosecuting Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office and District and Superior Court Clerkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offices. Those three customer service windows will remain closed from noon to

the housing board, and Jefferson County commissioners will appoint three. Both housing authorities filed an intent to merge in June with the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. A state law requires that at least one city participate when housing authorities consolidate, Tietz said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe that because the city of Port Angeles, the city of Forks and the city of Sequim have actually been on board with the Clallam County Housing Authority for all these years that it might make sense to have the city of Port Townsend make that commitment,â&#x20AC;? Tietz said. The city of Port Townsend will continue to provide office

12:30 p.m. in 2011. Clallam Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total budget, which includes tax revenue and state and federal grants, is $7.4 million in the red. Projected expenditures outweigh revenues $83.3 million to $75.9 million in the total budget. More than two-thirds of the total budget is dedicated to public safety expenditures. Law and justice and public works account for $55.6 million of the budget.

The county projects $27 million in tax revenue and $27.6 million in intergovernmental revenue. Clallam County expects to spend $35.8 million for outside services and capital improvements in 2011 and $22.6 million in salaries. After accounting for two

minor changes, Jones said the budget will boost the local economy by as much as $58,419,782 in 2011.

space for the housing authority, Tietz said. Asked if the merger would stretch resources thin in Clallam County, Tietz said it would not. She noted that Port Angeles, home of the housing authority, is closer to Port Townsend than it is to Forks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it will work out fine,â&#x20AC;? Tietz said. The Housing Authority of Clallam County was formed in 1941. Jefferson Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s housing authority started in 1970.

PORT ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Clallam County will tighten its belt another notch and draw $1.43 million from reserves to balance next yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget. Despite the loss of 23 employees, four of whom were laid off, the county will maintain current programs and services if the three commissioners approve the draft budget before them. Commissioners will consider adopting a final 2011 budget Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do have some small reductions in level of service due to the staffing cutbacks,â&#x20AC;? County Administrator Jim Jones said in the first of two budget hearings Tuesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are living within our means, however.â&#x20AC;? No public testimony was taken in either hearing at the Clallam County Courthouse in Port Angeles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had plenty of input from members of the public throughout the process,â&#x20AC;? Commissioner Mike Chapman said. Projected revenue in the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general fund is $31.1 million, compared with $32.5 million in expenses. Drawing $1.43 million from reserves would leave $8.07 million â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or about a quarter of the budget â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in the rainy day fund for 2012 and beyond. Clallam Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s general fund covers operating expenses and core services like sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies and the county jail. The budget gap was more than twice as wide in August, when Jones introduced a preliminary budget that had a $3.1 million shortfall.

Linking up with the TV GOOD OR BAD, I’ve watched an inordinate amount of television in my life. Most of the time I can pride Michael myself on watch- Carman ing shows that are semi-good for the brain like PBS “Nature” program, “60 Minutes” or “Jeopardy.” Sure, the occasional lapse into the tawdry occurs. The Victoria’s Secret Lingerie Show only happens once a year though, so that is limited. Recently, I was thinking about a golf show I recall fondly from my youth, Shell’s “Wonderful World of Golf.” It would match two professionals in a skins match in exotic locales like the Bahamas, Italy, Portugal and Venezuela. These destinations would be spotlighted in almost as much detail as the play itself, which I appreciated. You would also have the chance to see the banter between the two players, almost like you were playing with them and were part of their foursome. The show is still airing on the Golf Channel, but I couldn’t find anything on the channel’s website to figure out if it’s airing new episodes or just showing canned episodes. If you want to step back to the glory days of the program, read this glowing ode to its heyday from 19621970 here at http://tinyurl. com/2d43wab. There’s also Donald J. Trump’s “Fabulous World of Golf” on the Golf Channel, but it usually features celebrities competing against each other. Not really what I’m looking for in a golf show. If you are looking for a laugh, check out how close Trump’s toupee comes to blowing off during Monday night’s Patriot-Jets football game at http://tinyurl.com/2fmv8ja. Chances are that wouldn’t have cleared the editing room on his television show.

Sequim’s Rylleigh Zbaraschuk (51) celebrates after the Wolves ended a 43-game losing streak by beating Port Townsend 52-45 on Tuesday in Port Townsend. Sharing the joy is Haleigh Harrison (15).

Howling with delight Wolves in win column for first time in 2 years Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — After two years of losing, the Sequim girls basketball team finally got to celebrate. Leading from start to finish in their second game of the season, the Wolves snapped a 43-game losing streak with a 52-45 victory over Olympic League rival Port Townsend on Tuesday. “It felt amazing,” Sequim head coach Stephanie Lewis said

of getting her first win in her second season at the helm. “The girls have put in so much effort in the offseason and practice and it’s finally starting to pay off. “It’s just amazing to see it come together and come out with the ‘W.”’ The Wolves (1-1 in league and overall) surged ahead with an 11-4 first quarter and never looked back, taking a 21-12 lead into halftime and holding off the Redskins from there.

Sequim senior Lea Hopson scored a game-high 23 points and knocked down six free throws in the fourth to seal Sequim’s first win since February 2008. Hopson, a part of all but two of those 43 losses, also had three steals and five rebounds for the Wolves. “She just had a solid complete game offensively and defensively,” Lewis said. Rylleigh Zbaraschuk added nine points in the win, while Taylor Balkan had seven points and Haleigh Harrison six points and 10 rebounds.

Preps “We really came out strong. We kind of made it a mission tonight,” Lewis said. “Friday night [in a 50-42 loss to Olympic] we only played two quarters of basketball. So we came out and made a commitment of playing four quarters. “These girls are absorbing [information] like sponges. “We’re really expecting to get a lot more wins this season, not just one.” Port Townsend (1-1, 1-2) was handed its second straight loss after opening the season with an overtime win over Klahowya.

Port Townsend Golf Club will hold its annual Holiday Open House from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday. Hors d’oeuvres and beverages will be served, and there will be sales merchandise in the pro shop. The event will provide a good opportunity to pick something up for your golfing pals or family members, or items to help get newbies started. The following weekend Port Townsend will host its annual Turkey Shoot/Toys for Tots Scramble. The event raises funds for the Marine Corps Toys for Tots (and teens!) toy drive. The tournament tees off at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 18. Turn

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — Well, well, look who’s entered the Cliff Lee sweepstakes — those cash-slingin’ Washington Nationals. OK, general manager Mike Rizzo admits they probably won’t get him. But the fact the N a t i o n a l s Lee are even talking to Lee’s agent signals a shift at these winter meetings. As in, this session isn’t just for the Yankees, Red Sox and baseball’s other big spenders. The Arizona Diamondbacks kept busy Tuesday, giving free agent reliever and former Seattle Mariner J.J. Putz a $10 million, twoyear deal. Colorado filled a need by getting 2010 All-Star infielder Ty Wigginton and Pittsburgh added pitcher Kevin Correia, both with $8 million, two-year contracts. Also, pitcher Dustin Moseley wound up with San Diego and outfielder Tony Gwynn Jr. headed to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Carl Crawford and Lee still topped the free-agent market. Carlos Pena could make a decision today and possibly choose the Chicago Cubs while Hideki Matsui attracted interest from Oakland.

Yankees GM Brian Cashman and manager Joe Girardi made the hour-long drive to the team’s spring training complex in Tampa for the formal announcement of Jeter’s three-year, $51 million deal. Jeter admitted he was miffed when the Yankees publicly suggested his older age and diminished numbers should result in a pay cut. When the negotiations bogged down, Cashman said the 36-year-old shortstop should explore other options if he didn’t like New York’s offer.

“To hear the organization telling me to go shopping and I just told you I wasn’t going to, oh yeah, if I’m going to be honest with you, I was angry about it,” Jeter said. The Rockies and Wigginton reached agreement on a two-year contract worth $8 million, a person familiar with the deal told The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been officially announced. The 33-year-old Wigginton played first base, second base and third base for Baltimore last season. His deal came a day after Melvin Mora, who filled mostly the same role with Colorado last season, signed with Arizona.

The Diamondbacks and Putz agreed on a two-year contract worth $10 million. The 33-year-old Putz went 7-5 with three saves and a 2.83 ERA in 60 games for the Chicago White Sox last season. The former All-Star closer with Seattle made the move a day after the Diamondbacks, who came to the meetings looking for bullpen help, got righthanded relievers David Hernandez and Kam Mickolio from Baltimore for third baseman Mark Reynolds. The 30-year-old Correia went 10-10 with a 5.40 ERA in 26 starts for San Diego last season. The Pirates had the majors’ worst starting pitching while going 57-105 in the NL Central.

Port Townsend’s Seiji Thielk (2), Jacob DeBerry (45) and Matt Juran (13) watch as Sequim’s Corbin Webb goes up for a basket during Tuesday night’s Olympic League game in Port Townsend.

Preps: Bruin girls win in OT Continued from B1 Senior posts Kerri Evalt and Bella Fox each had 12 points to lead the Redskins, who spent the entire game playing catchup after a fourpoint first quarter. Port Townsend got within striking distance near the end of the third quarter only to see Hopson bury three 3-pointers to seize the momentum for Sequim once again. “We never really recovered from that,” Port Townsend head coach Randy Maag said. “She was the one tonight, definitely.” Kiley Maag added 11 points for the Redskins, who will host North Kitsap on Friday in their next Olympic League matchup. “We just came out really flat for some reason,” Randy Maag said. “We had a bad practice last night and it just carried over into tonight.” Sequim next hosts Chimacum in a nonleague game Thursday night.

Port Angeles 74, North Mason 29 PORT ANGELES — The Roughriders (2-0 in league and overall) ran roughshod over the Bulldogs for their second straight Olympic League win to open the season Tuesday night. “We came out and played really good defense,” Port Angeles coach Mike Knowles said. It started off close but Jessica Madison stepped up for the Riders, scoring 29 points with 19 coming in the second half. The Port Angeles defense dominated the second half, allowing only eight points from North Mason. That included a Bulldog bagel in the third quarter. The Riders travel to Olympic on Friday with the game starting at 7 p.m. Port Angeles 74, North Mason 29 North Mason Port Angeles

Boys Basketball Sequim 54, Port Townsend 39 PORT TOWNSEND — The Wolves rebounded from a two-point second quarter to rally past the Redskins in Olympic League play Tuesday night. Gabe Carter had 19 points, 13 rebounds and four assists, while Corbin Webb added 18 points in the Wolves’ first league win of the season. “Neither of them are real quick, they are just very effective,” Sequim (1-1, 2-1) head coach Greg Glasser said, referencing the two players’ smooth and controlled games. The Wolves, down 20-17 at the half, took over in the third quarter with an 18-7 frame sparked by a pair of steals from senior Nick Camporini. “Our guys, they are really young, but they sure showed composure,” Glasser said. “We started to execute, got good looks and they started falling for us.” Sequim had 11 assists while turning the ball over just 10 times. Port Townsend, on the other hand, was unable to hold onto a second half lead for the second home game in a row.

That included a season opening loss to Klahowya last Friday. “We’ve got to execute better,” Port Townsend head coach Tom Webster said. “These games are 32 minutes long. You can’t get on the bus at halftime. “We just got to keep learning how to compete.” Jacob DeBerry led the Redskins (0-2, 0-3) with nine points, while Habtamu Rubio and Kylen Solvik each had eight points. “We were trying,” Webster said. “We just got to get better.” Sequim hosts former Class 3A Olympic League rival Peninsula tonight at 7 p.m. Port Townsend next travels to North Kitsap on Friday night.

The All-Pac-10 first and second teams are listed on Page B2 in today’s “Scoreboard.”

Jersey follows suit EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — New Jersey took action Tuesday aimed at protecting student athletes from brain injuries, as the problem gains attention among both professionals and amateurs. Gov. Chris Christie signed into law a bill that requires coaches to remove any player who shows signs of a concussion. Those students will need to be cleared by a doctor before they can compete again. All public and private school districts in the state also will have to develop policies to handle head injuries. In legislating the measure, New Jersey joins Washington state, which led the way last year in passing what’s considered the nation’s strongest return-toplay statute. At least a half-dozen other states are now considering such measures. Peninsula Daily News and The Associated Press

China demand, housing boost aid lumber mills The Associated Press

LONGVIEW — A small boost in domestic housing starts and China’s growing demand for lumber are giving Western producers encouragement for the new year. “We’re hopeful that we’ll be able to run our mill in Longview full time in 2011,” Doug Reed, vice president and general manager of Tacoma-based Simpson Lumber Co., told The Daily News of Longview. The Western Wood Products Association reported Monday that lumber production in the West was up 7.9 percent through the first 10 months of the year compared with 2009. Prices have risen to an average of $274 per thousand board feet in Novem-

ber, about 15 percent higher than last year, reported Random Lengths, a Eugene, Ore.-based forest products trade publication. Both prices and production have plummeted in the recession because of drastically lower construction. Exports to China are still a tiny fragment of the market. China takes 106 million board feet a year, just 1 percent of total Western U.S. production. But Random Lengths said China’s purchases from U.S. mills more than doubled over the year through September, and China has increased its overall lumber imports by 128 percent. Analysts said that’s the first big jump in years in lumber demand from the world’s most populated country, and could be

long-lasting. “The China thing is the big talk among producers in Western Canada and the Western U.S.,” said Jon Anderson, Random Lengths’ publisher. Anderson said that while Chinese demand has helped, it’s not the biggest factor in stabilizing prices. “This decline has lasted long enough that the producers have downsized to equal demand levels, so you get some price firmness out of that,” he said. Log exports to China also have doubled and tripled over the year at West Coast ports, largely because a new Russian tariff has made U.S. and Canadian logs more competitive, The Daily News said. The U.S. housing market is still the biggest driver of

lumber sales, and producers expect it will stay sluggish the next few years, Anderson said. “I don’t think anybody’s got any hopes for a significant upswing of housing,” he said. Nationwide, housing starts — the number of new residential construction projects that begin in any particular period — are expected to rise to 655,000 in 2011 — a 40 percent increase from 2009 — and to 970,000 in 2012, the National Association of Home Builders reported. But that’s far short of the 30-year average of 1.6 million starts. Analysts said full recovery of the housing market is at least three to five years away.

WaMu judge says she’ll only consider evidence in case The Associated Press

WILMINGTON, Del. — The judge in Washington Mutual Inc.’s bankruptcy said Tuesday that she will disregard the conclusions of top executives that the company’s proposed reorganization plan is fair and reasonable as she considers whether to approve the plan. Judge Mary Walrath said those conclusions are merely arguments and opinions and that she will look only at evidence in determining whether to confirm WaMu’s plan, which is based on the proposed settlement of lawsuits that bank holding company Washington Mutual Inc.,

JPMorgan Chase and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. filed against one another after the collapse of Seattle-based Washington Mutual Bank in 2008, the largest bank failure in U.S. history. The FDIC seized the bank and sold its assets to JPMorgan for $1.9 billion. Washington Mutual officials testified in a trial that began last week that the settlement is fair and reasonable because it avoids costly litigation that could drag out over several years while providing billions of dollars for distribution to creditors. Shareholders and other investors challenging the

plan urged the judge Tuesday to toss out testimony from WaMu officials because their conclusions were based on attorney-client discussions that have been kept from opponents of the plan and thus not subject to challenge. “A party cannot shield evidence in discovery through the use of the attorney-client privilege and then turn around and use it as a sword,” said James Stoll, an attorney for investors who purchased $1 billion in trust securities that purportedly were converted into now-worthless stock when the bank failed. Attorneys for WaMu and its supporters denied that

they were trying to hide behind the attorney-client privilege. Walrath refused to exclude the testimony but said the opinions offered by WaMu officials will not influence her decision. “None of that is evidence that I’m going to consider,” Walrath said, adding that Washington Mutual was “walking a fine line” in trying to defend its plan without showing what attorneys thought about various legal claims that are potentially worth billions to the bankruptcy estate but which would be released under the settlement.

A volunteer dog walker at Jefferson County Humane Society, Hans Oscar Heil holds his rescued border collie, Rosie. Heil received life-changing help through the Peninsula Home Fund and other local agencies after work-related injuries left him depressed and physically unable to hold a job.

Fund helps man rebound from injury EDITOR’S NOTE — For 21 years, Peninsula Daily News readers in Jefferson and Clallam counties have supported the “hand up, not a handout” Peninsula Home Fund. Today, we feature another in a series of articles on how the Home Fund operates and who benefits from our readers’ generosity. The next article will appear Sunday along with the latest list of donors. By Karen Griffiths

For Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — After an injury on the job left him unable to work, the Peninsula Daily News Peninsula Home Fund helped Hans Oscar Heil get on track to a healthier life. Ten years ago, Heil was a U.S. Forest Service firefighter. He loved his job. Putting out fires — saving trees, wildlife and homes from devastation — filled him with a sense of accomplishment and triumph. Then, the unthinkable happened: an accident. It broke bones — and his spirit. He qualified for disability but found his small monthly stipend discouraging. He floundered and began a new fight — that of the demons in his mind. “When I couldn’t work anymore, I lost everything,” says Heil, now 61. “Then, my dad passed on. All together, it was overwhelming.” Years went by. He was depressed, despondent and lonely.

Give voice to your heart A GIFT OF any size is welcome. The Peninsula Home Fund has never been a campaign of heavy hitters. If you can contribute only a few dollars, please don’t hesitate because you think it won’t make a difference. Every gift makes a difference, regardless of its size.

within my budget,” says Heil. “But once in awhile, I have an unexpected expense, which can put me behind.” OlyCAP tapped the Home Fund so Heil could have gas money to drive to Port Hadlock for physical therapist appointments. It was a small — but crucial — amount of money, a bridge for an important part of Heil’s rehabilitation. The Home Fund helps “people in need to stay on, or to get back on, their feet,” says Heil.

Fund provides a unique lifeline on the North Olympic Peninsula. All the money collected for the Home Fund goes — without any deductions — for hot meals for seniors, warm winter coats for kids, home repairs for the low-income, needed eyeglasses and prescription drugs, dental work, safe, drug-free temporary housing . . . The list goes on and on.

back on the path to self-sufficiency. That’s the “hand up, not a handout” focus of the fund. In many instances, Peninsula Home Fund case managers at OlyCAP work with individuals or families to develop a plan to become financially stable — and avoid a recurrence of the emergency that prompted aid from the fund. n Begun in 1989, the fund is supported entirely by Jefferson and Clallam residents. Individuals, couples, businesses, churches, service organizations and school groups set a record for contributions in 2009 — $230,806.95. With heavy demand this year, the carefully rationed fund is being rapidly depleted. All the money collected in 2009 is expected to be spent before Dec. 31. n As was done with Heil, money is usually distributed in

small amounts, usually up to $150. n Assistance is limited to one time in a 12-month period. n Peninsula Home Fund contributions are also used in conjunction with money from other agencies, enabling OlyCAP to stretch the value of the contribution.

Applying to the Home Fund To apply for a grant from the fund, phone OlyCAP at 360-4524726 (Clallam County) or 360385-2571 (Jefferson County). If you have any questions about the fund, phone John Brewer, Peninsula Daily News editor and publisher, at 360-4173500. Or e-mail him at john.brewer@ peninsuladailynews.com. Peninsula Daily News publishes stories every Sunday and Wednesday during the fundraising campaign listing contributors and reporting on how the fund works.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE'S SALE Pursuant to the Revised Code of Washington Chapter 61.24, et seq. FIRST FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION OF PORT ANGELES v. TYNDALL; LOAN NO. 0328613827. I. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the undersigned Trustee will on the 7th day of January, 2011, at the hour of 10:00 o'clock a.m. at the main entrance to the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 East Fourth Street in the city of Port Angeles, state of Washington, sell at public auction to the highest and best bidder, payable at the time of sale, the following described real property, situated in the county of Clallam, state of Washington, to-wit: LOT 17, BLOCK 434, TOWNSITE OF PORT ANGELES, AS PER PLAT THEREOF RECORDED IN VOLUME 1 OF PLATS, PAGE 27, RECORDS OF CLALLAM COUNTY, WASHINGTON. SITUATE IN CLALLAM COUNTY, STATE OF WASHINGTON, commonly known as 1417 West 16th Street, Port Angeles, Washington, which is subject to that certain Deed of Trust dated April 24, 2002, recorded April 25, 2002, under Auditor's File Number 2002-1083946, records of Clallam County, Washington, from CHRISTINE A. TYNDALL, a single woman, Grantor, to OLYMPIC PENINSULA TITLE COMPANY, as Trustee, to secure an obligation in favor of FIRST FEDERAL SAVINGS & LOAN ASSOCIATION OF PORT ANGELES as Beneficiary. II. No action commenced by the Beneficiary of the Deed of Trust or the Beneficiary's successor is now pending to seek satisfaction of the obligation in any court by reason of the Borrower's or Grantor's default on the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust. III. The defaults for which this foreclosure is made are as follows: Failure to pay when due the following amounts which are now in arrears: 6 monthly payments of $616.86 each for the months of April through September 2010, inclusive: $3,701.16; 6 late charges of $30.84 each for the months of April through September 2010, inclusive: $185.04; TOTAL MONTHLY PAYMENTS AND LATE CHARGES: $3,886.20 IV. The sum owing on the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust is: Principal of $81,387.70, together with interest as provided in the note or other instrument secured from the 1st day of March, 2010, and such other costs and fees as are due under the note or other instrument secured, and as are provided by statute. V. The above described real property will be sold to satisfy the expense of sale and the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust as provided by statute. The sale will be made without warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances on the 7th day of January, 2011. The defaults referred to in paragraph III must be cured by the 27th day of December 2010 (11 days before the sale date), to cause a discontinuance of the sale. The sale will be discontinued and terminated if at any time on or before the 27th day of December, 2010 (11 days before the sale date), the defaults as set forth in paragraph III are cured and the Trustee's fees and costs are paid. The sale may be terminated any time after the 27th day of December, 2010 (11 days before the sale date), and before the sale by the Borrower, the Grantor or the Grantor's successor in interest, any guarantor, or the holder of any recorded junior lien or encumbrance paying the entire principal and interest secured by the Deed of Trust, plus costs, fees, and advances, if any, made pursuant to the terms of the obligation and/or Deed of Trust, and curing all other defaults. VI. A written Notice of Default was transmitted by the Beneficiary or Trustee to the Borrower and Grantor or the Grantor's successor in interest at the following address: Christine A. Tyndall, 1417 West 16th Street, Port Angeles, WA 98363, by both first class and certified mail on the 16th day of August, 2010, proof of which is in the possession of the Trustee. A written Notice of Default was also posted in a conspicuous place on the premises located at 1417 West 16th Street, Port Angeles, Clallam County, Washington, on the 16th day of August, 2010, and the Trustee has possession of proof of such posting. VII. The Trustee whose name and address are set forth below will provide in writing to anyone requesting it, a statement of all costs and fees due at any time prior to the sale. VIII. The effect of the sale will be to deprive the Grantor and all those who hold by, through or under the Grantor of all their interest in the above described property. IX. Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the sale pursuant to RCW 61.24.130. Failure to bring such a lawsuit may result in a waiver of any proper grounds for invalidating the Trustee's sale. X. NOTICE TO OCCUPANTS OR TENANTS. The purchaser at the Trustee's Sale is entitled to possession of the property on the 20th day following the sale, as against the Grantor under the Deed of Trust (the owner) and anyone having an interest junior to the Deed of Trust, including occupants other than tenants. After the 20th day following the sale the purchaser has the right to evict occupants other than tenants by summary proceedings under the Unlawful Detainer Act, Chapter 59.12 RCW. Pursuant to the Protecting Tenants at Foreclosure Act of 2009, a tenant or subtenant in possession of the property that is purchased at the trusteeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sale, under any bona fide lease entered into before the notice of foreclosure, has the right to occupy the property until the end of the remaining term of the lease, except that the purchaser (or a successor in interest) who will occupy the property as a primary residence may terminate the lease by giving written notice to the tenant at least ninety (90) days before the effective date of such notice. The purchaser (or a successor in interest) may give a written notice to a tenant to vacate the property at least ninety (90) days before the effective date of such notice to a bona fide month-to-month tenant or subtenant in possession of the property, or a tenant or subtenant in possession of the property without a bona fide lease. A lease or tenancy shall be considered bona fide only if: (1) the tenant is not the mortgagor/grantor or the child, spouse, or parent of the mortgagor/grantor under the foreclosed contract/Deed of Trust ; (2) the lease or tenancy was the result of an arms-length transaction; and (3) the lease or tenancy requires the receipt of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property or the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a Federal, State, or local subsidy. DATED this 20th day of September, 2010. GARY R. COLLEY, Trustee, 403 South Peabody, Port Angeles, WA 98362, (360) 457-3327. Pub: Dec. 8, 29, 2010

It’s all about the muffins Little mess, big flavor By J.M. Hirsch

The Associated Press

If I’m going to bother to bake something, it had better be good. And it needs to be easy and create as little mess as possible. If it also could combine the toasty, warm, cinnamony flavors of my favorite baked goods — banana bread, coffee cake and streusel toppings — the chances of me actually cranking up the oven increase dramatically. Thus was the inspiration for these muffins, which are made entirely in

the food processor, call for no unusual ingredients, come together in about 10 minutes, bake in just about 20 minutes and have a flavor that will make you want to eat until your stomach hurts. To take these even more over the top, you could drizzle them with caramel sauce just before serving and/or add white chocolate chips to the batter before baking. If you wanted to make these healthier, you could use white whole-wheat flour instead of all-purpose.

Quick Banana Coffee Cake Streusel Muffins Makes 12 muffins For the streusel topping: 1⁄2 cup all-purpose flour 4 tablespoons (1⁄2 stick) butter, cut into small pieces and softened 1⁄2 cup brown sugar 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon For the muffins: 3⁄4 cup sour cream 2 bananas 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1⁄4 teaspoon ground ginger 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 large egg 3⁄4 cup brown sugar 21⁄2 cups all-purpose flour 11⁄2 teaspoons baking powder 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda 4 tablespoons (1⁄2 stick) butter, cut into small pieces and softened

To take Quick Banana Coffee Cake Streusel Muffins even more over the top, drizzle them with caramel sauce just before serving and/or add white chocolate chips to the batter before baking.

Company for dinnertime The Associated Press

If you don’t have time to fuss with the yeast and rising time of traditional dinner rolls, try a quick breadstyle dinner muffin, instead. These savory muffins are studded with bits of goat cheese and chopped

dried figs, as well as fresh thyme and oregano. The sour cream helps keep the muffins moist and tender. They are the perfect accompaniment to roasted meats and vegetables. And to help tie the meal together, consider using thyme and oregano to season the meat and veggies.

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Coat a 12-cup muffin pan with baking spray or line it with paper muffin cups. To prepare the streusel in a food processor, com-

bine the flour, butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Process for 15 seconds, or until well-blended and resembles slightly clumpy wet sand. Transfer to a bowl and set aside To prepare the muffins in the food processor, combine the sour cream and bananas. Process until smooth. Add the cinnamon, ginger, salt, vanilla, egg and brown sugar. Process again until smooth. Add the flour, baking powder, baking soda and butter. Pulse only until combined. Add 1⁄4 of the streusel mixture, pulse the processor two to three times. Scoop a generous 1⁄4 cup of batter into each muffin cup. Top each with a heaping spoonful of streusel topping, pressing it lightly into the top of the batter. Bake for 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted at the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes.

For a Fall Harvest Muffins recipe, see Page D4.

Herbed Goat Cheese and Fig Muffins Makes 12 muffins 21⁄4 cups all-purpose flour 21⁄2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped 3 tablespoons fresh oregano, chopped 2 eggs 6 tablespoons butter, melted 3⁄4 cup whole milk 1⁄2 cup sour cream 8 ounces soft goat cheese (such as chevre) 1⁄2 cup grated firm

goat cheese (such as landana) 3⁄4 cup chopped dried figs

_______ Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or coat with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In another medium bowl, whisk together the herbs, eggs, butter, milk and sour cream.

Crumble the soft goat cheese into the egg mixture and stir in the grated goat cheese and figs. Add to the flour mixture and gently fold together until just incorporated. Divide the batter among 12 muffin tins (they will be quite full). Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden and the center springs back when lightly pressed. Remove the muffins from the pan and cool.

Herbed Goat Cheese and Fig Muffins are a quick and easy alternative to rolls at dinner time.

Great-granddaughter visits family mansion Mary Louise Olson wasn’t a quitter. At the age of 15, after her brothers were lost at sea, she emigrated from Malmo, Sweden, to the United States. Coming west, she lived with an aunt at Anderson Lake until she married Carl Olson, a homesteader who lived in a Swedish enclave called Burnt Hill in the foothills south of Sequim. But one day, Mary Louise’s patience with pioneer life hit the wall. “She got sick of it,” Chris Emerson said. “She packed up the kids, hitched up the mule and went into town. “My great-grandfather followed her.” Emerson is the great-granddaughter of Carl and Mary Louise Olson, who moved from a cabin in the woods to a Victorian mansion they bought at a tax auction in Port Townsend around 1900. Last Friday, Emerson, who lives in Seattle, was in town for the Victorian Society’s Northwest Chapter’s Holiday Homes Tour and stopped by the house, now known as the Old Consulate Inn, to visit Mary Ann DeLong, the current owner.

port townsend Neighbor their first winter, DeLong said, but prospered with the town, building commercial and residential structures that remain in the family. Frank started his house in 1889, DeLong said, but when his fortunes ebbed with the economic tide in the 1890s, he ended up living in three downstairs rooms. He also didn’t pay taxes for seven years, so the house went up for auction at the turn of the century. Carl Olson bought it for $2,600. “There were only two bidders,” DeLong said. “The other was a lumber dealer. He was going to tear it down for the lumber.” According to records, there was $10,000 of lumber in the house, DeLong said, noting that Hastings wouldn’t give Olson the blueprints because the new owner got it so cheap. So Olson hired a carpenter, and the family finished the house the best they could, Emerson said.

DeLong, who also comes of pioneer stock, was in grade school then, but she remembers the war and helping her grandmother, Sybil Winters Pike, make soap that would “clean you right up” — i.e., remove your skin along with the dirt. DeLong and her husband bought the Old Consulate Inn in 2000, a century after the Olsons, from Rob and Joanna Jackson, had turned it into a bed-andbreakfast they operated for 20 years. Before that, Jim and Donna Daubenberger raised their family there, DeLong said.

Rare minihorse dies after wind topples tree “He was a hoot,” said Glenda Cable of her prized minihorse stallion Lost Spokes Broken Arrow, or “BA” for Broken Arrow or Bad Attitude, depending on how he was acting that day. She phoned to tell me of his tragic, accidental death caused when her neighbor’s 135-foot tree crashed down on him during an early November windstorm. BA was a 29-inch tall, rarecolored leopard appaloosa. During the storm, she worried about the majority of her minihorse herd, which roams a large pasture with shelters. She thought BA was safe and secure for the night in his barn stall with adjoining pen. Sadly, she was wrong. When she went out in the morning to feed him, she saw the tree had crushed the fence to his pen. “It was awful,” she said. “I looked around the yard thinking he escaped the pen when the tree fell, but then I spotted his little hoof under the tree. It was horrible.” According to her arborist’s report, the tree likely fell because much of its roots were killed or handicapped when pipe was laid for the Sequim irrigation ditch system, which runs alongside the boundary line between the Cables’ farm and a neighbor’s

Peninsula Horseplay property. “When Griffiths workers were putting pipe in the ditch, I told them, ‘You just killed that tree!’” said Glenda. “I saw them take the roots off the east side and asked what was going to support that tree now. I told them they needed to take it out, but they didn’t.” In the two years since, Glenda worried her neighbor’s trees might fall and come crashing down on her master bedroom roof — so much so that with every windstorm since, the family has slept on the opposite side of the house. Her barn is located farther away, roughly 50 feet from the neighbor’s property. “In 2003, I sent a certified letter to my neighbor requesting he cut those trees down. He didn’t want to, and now my horse is gone,” mourned Glenda. “I don’t want anyone else to have to go through this. People need to be aware the trees that once relied on the ditch for water

Sequim homeowner Glenda Cable recently lost her minihorse, Lost Spokes Broken Arrow, a rare leopard appaloosa she recently purchased, after a neighbor’s tree fell on him during a windstorm. are dying.” She’s urging homeowners to be proactive and to cut down trees that were dependent on the ditch for water. According to the arborist she brought out to assess the situation, every tree along the ditch is now handicapped, especially nonnative trees like the grand fir

that killed BA. They won’t grow because circumstances they grew tall in have changed. Homeowners need to cut those trees down and plant a new tree that can grow according to its new surroundings. As for Glenda, the arborist recommended at least 20 to 30 other trees lining the piped ditch

be cut down. Unfortunately, BA, the prized stallion, wasn’t insured. Glenda had searched for years for such a horse and had just recently purchased and shipped him from Pennsylvania. He was shown as a weanling by his breeders and was in the top 10 for his size and age group at the American Miniature Horse Association nationals. Glenda said her homeowner’s insurance representative told her the tree falling is considered an “act of God,” so her neighbor isn’t responsible, and her homeowner’s insurance won’t cover replacing BA. “So, basically, with not having BA insurance, I’m screwed,” said Glenda, who only had the stallion long enough for one breeding. She’s hoping others can learn from her experience. Thank you, Glenda, for sharing your story. I’m sorry for your loss.

PORT TOWNSEND — A citizens group has been organized to support approval of the Port Townsend School District’s replacement levy request, slated to appear on the February ballot. The Quality Community Schools Committee is made up of volunteers working to secure the voter support needed to maintain a strong local public education system. The measure seeks to replace the existing levy, which will expire soon. Levy funds either largely or entirely support such programs as basic education, curriculum purchases, art, drama, music, facilities maintenance, technology and student transportation. The committee welcomes all questions and comments, and it is seeking donations of time, skill or financial support.

Fall Harvest Muffins will fill your house with an inviting aroma and fill your mouth with the flavors of autumn.

The Associated Press

Autumnal muffin over-the-top good By Alison Ladman The Associated Press

The goal here was simple: an autumnal muffin to top all other muffins. We wanted something over-the-top good. Something that will fill the house will warm, bakery smells. Something you buy and devour anyway, then go back for another. The only way to push this even further would be to drizzle it with a lemon sugar glaze (1 teaspoon lemon juice to 1⁄4 cup powdered sugar). And whatever you do, be sure to eat them still warm from the oven.

Fall Harvest Muffins Makes 12 muffins For the topping: 4 tablespoons (1⁄2 stick) butter, softened 1⁄4 cup all-purpose flour 1⁄4 cup dark brown sugar 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar 1⁄2 teaspoon cinnamon 1⁄2 cup rolled oats Pinch salt For the muffins: 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 cup white whole-wheat flour 11⁄2 teaspoons baking powder 1⁄4 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon ground ginger

1⁄2 1⁄4 1⁄4 1⁄2 3⁄4

teaspoon ground allspice teaspoon cardamom teaspoon ground clove teaspoon salt cup (11⁄2 sticks) butter, melted and cooled 1 cup dark brown sugar 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 cup canned pumpkin 1 apple, peeled, cored and grated (about 3⁄4 cup) 1⁄2 cup chopped, toasted pecans 1⁄2 cup dried cranberries

________ Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or line with muffin papers. To make the topping, in a medium bowl, rub together the butter, flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, oats and salt until crumbly and well combined. Set aside. To make the muffins, in a large bowl, whisk together both flours, the baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cardamom, clove and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter and brown sugar.

Whisk in the eggs and vanilla, then stir in the pumpkin. Gently but thoroughly mix in the dry ingredients, mixing until just incorporated. Stir in the apple, pecans and cranberries. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle a bit of the topping over each muffin. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a wooden pick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then finish cooling on a rack.
