Economic reasons Rich said the store counts on its strong local customer base, and she attributes that to carrying it through the poor economic times.

Long walk across U.S. leads to Port Townsend shelter By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News
PORT TOWNSEND — While many spent the Christmas holiday with family and friends looking forward to the possibility of better times ahead, a 46-year-old homeless man hoped that Port Townsend is the end of a long journey in search of work and a new life. “I am charmed by this town and
the people,” said Shawn Carroll over breakfast Christmas Eve. “Port Townsend has the culture of Seattle without the urban blight and has intelligent, thoughtful people without the inherent fanaticism that you find in large towns and large groups.” Carroll is one of the men who has stayed at the Jefferson County Winter Shelter in the American
Legion Hall basement at 209 Monroe St., Port Townsend. The seasonal shelter, which opened the Sunday after Thanksgiving, has been at or near its capacity of 21 people each night, said Deanne McCausland, the Olympic Community Action Program’s program manager for family housing services, on Monday.

TEENA MARIE, 54, a singer whose funky hits in the 1980s, like “Lovergirl” and “Square Biz,” made her one of the few white performers to find success consistently on the rhythmand-blues charts, died Sunday at her home in Pasadena, Calif. The cause was not immediately known, but authorities said she appeared to have died of Teena Marie natural in 2005 causes. Born Mary Christine Brockert in Santa Monica, Calif., on March 5, 1956, she grew up in a predominantly black area of nearby Venice, Calif., and began singing and acting while still a child. At age 8, she tap-danced for Jed Clampett on an episode of “The Beverly Hillbillies,” under the name Tina Marie Brockert. After graduating from high school and briefly attending Santa Monica College, she signed with Motown Records and became of protégée of Rick James, then one of the label’s biggest new stars. Teena Marie’s first album, “Wild and Peaceful,” with James as a producer and the chief songwriter — and his Stone City Band backing her up — was released on Motown’s Gordy imprint in 1979. “I’m Just a Sucker for

Your Love,” her duet with James from that album, went to No. 8 on the R&B singles chart, and the two began a tempestuous love affair. Through the 1980s, Teena Marie developed a style that folded bits of rap and rock into danceable, funk-driven pop. From the start, race was ambiguous in her music. She was not pictured on the cover of “Wild and Peaceful,” which was promoted to black radio stations. With an earthy voice that pierced with power in its high registers, she was highly credible as an R&B singer, and many listeners learned that she was white only when they saw her glamorous portrait on the cover of her second album, “Lady T,” in 1980. She was embraced by the R&B audience, and some of her songs have become ingrained in black musical culture. Her 1988 song “Ooo La La La” was sampled and reconfigured by the Fugees as “Fu-Gee-

La” in 1996 on their debut album, “The Score.” For many of her fellow musicians, Teena Marie’s biggest accomplishment was made offstage. Her lawsuit against Motown in the early 1980s, for nonpayment of royalties, resulted in a clarification of California law — known in the music industry as the Brockert Initiative or the Teena Marie Law — that made it much more difficult for record companies to keep an act under an exclusive contract. After leaving Motown, she signed with Epic and reached her commercial peak. Her 1984 song “Lovergirl” — featuring her impassioned squeal in the chorus, “I just want to be your lover girl/I just want to rock your world” — went to No. 4 on Billboard’s pop chart and became her biggest seller.

1935 (75 years ago) The skeletal remains of a child were found on the banks of the Sol Duc River near Sappho. Examination of the remains by three physicians and Deputy Clallam County Coroner Robert Taylor determined that they are those of Bobby Hegness, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Hegness, a 2-year-old who disappeared from the family home on the river near the Westlands homestead in 1932. Sheriff Charles Kemp made a trip to the West End on the day after Christmas to check up on the case, and the forensics finding was reported to Prosecuting Attorney Joseph H. Johnston, who turned over the remains to Mr. and Mrs. Hegness.
1960 (50 years ago) A 17-year-old youth on Christmas leave from the Fort Worden Diagnostic Center in Port Townsend was captured by Port Angeles police under odd circumstances — he was on foot.

Chief Harry Kochanek said. Police apprehended the teenager after he had abandoned the fourth stolen car south of the city. He was in jail pending disposition of his case.

Briefly: Nation Potential GOP candidates weigh issues WASHINGTON — This month’s early, under-the-radar campaigning by potential Republican challengers to President Barack Obama is a reminder of something too easily forgotten: Running for president is harder than it looks, and Obama ultimately will stand against a flesh-and-blood nominee certain to make mistakes along the way. Mitt Romney, Tim Pawlenty and other possible GOP candidates stumbled over health care, taxes and other issues in December, even as Obama coped with the harsh political reality stemming from his party’s “shellacking” in last month’s elections. No serious contender has officially launched a 2012 campaign. But with the Iowa caucuses less than 13 months away, at least a dozen Republicans are jockeying for position, speaking to groups throughout the country, writing op-ed columns and taking potshots at one another.
Certification cleared JUNEAU, Alaska — Alaska’s certification of results showing U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski winning re-election over Republican rival Joe Miller could come as soon as Thursday.
Miller filed court papers Monday saying he no longer objects to the state giving its OK to the election results. That would Murkowski clear the path for Murkowski to be in place in Congress when it convenes early next month. But Miller still isn’t satisfied with how write-in ballots were counted and isn’t giving up. His attorneys asked federal judge Ralph Beistline to keep Miller’s legal options open after Murkowski is seated, including a possible recount, if warranted.
Officer killed WOBURN, Mass. — Two men pleaded not guilty Monday to charges they were involved in the shooting death of a veteran police officer who responded to an armed robbery at a department store jewelry counter. One suspect was also killed. Officer John Maguire was one of several officers who responded to 9-1-1 calls about a robbery at Kohl’s just before 9 p.m. Sunday in the midst of a snowstorm. Maguire was chasing two suspects on foot when the gunfire began. Maguire and 57-year-old Dominic Cinelli, whom police identified as the man who fired the fatal shot, were both struck.

World: WikiLeaks founder to write his autobiography
A curious puppy got its head stuck in an 18-inch block wall in Desert Hot Springs, Calif., on Monday afternoon, but animal services were able to free him less than an hour later. Riverside County Animal Services Sgt. James Huffman says Rebel, the 8-month-old German shepherd, was whimpering and crying for help. He had apparently gotten stuck with his head in a wall, and was found by a neighbor while his owner was out. Rebel had squeezed his head through the hole, but couldn’t back up to free himself without a few helping hands to lay his ears flat and pull him backward.
The Kennedys have held congressional seats, the presidency and the public’s imagination for more than 60 years. That era ends when Patrick Kennedy of Rhode Island vacates his U.S. House seat. The son of the late Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy said he has no qualms about walking away from politics. His departure marks the first time in 63 years there won’t be a Kennedy serving in elected office in Washington, D.C. “In my family, the legacy was always public service, and that didn’t necessarily mean public office,” Kennedy, 43, said.
Israeli archaeologists said Monday they may have found the earliest evidence yet for the existence of modern man, and if so, it could upset theories of the origin of humans. A Tel Aviv University team excavating a cave in central Israel said teeth found in the cave are about 400,000 years old and resemble those of other remains of modern man, known scientifically as Homo sapiens, found in Israel. The earliest Homo sapiens remains found until now are half as old. The accepted scientific theory is that Homo sapiens originated in Africa and migrated out of that continent.
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange says he’s being forced into penning an autobiography to keep his organization from going under. New York publishing house Alfred A. Knopf confirmed Monday that it had struck a deal with the 39-year-old Australian to bring out his autobiography on a publication date yet to be determined. Assange said in London that the deal would bring in more than $1 million, with $800,000 from Knopf. But he said he only agreed to it because he was under financial pressure. He said he needs the money “to defend myself and to keep WikiLeaks afloat.”

When, how to dispose yule tree Peninsula Daily News
Santa has fled to Cabo for some well-earned R&R. The stockings — only recently hung by the chimney with care — now hang empty. And it’s time to take down the Christmas tree before it spontaneously combusts. Proper disposal varies, depending on where you live. Phone the disposal company that serves your area. But one rule holds for all areas: Flocked trees normally can’t be recycled (except at the Lazy J Tree Farm, see below) and must be cut up and placed in the trash. Trees aren’t the only recyclable holiday waste. Some wrapping paper is recyclable (after removing
the ribbons and bows) and nearly all cardboard can also be recycled rather than going into a landfill.

Johnson said the trees must be free of ornaments, tinsel and any other foreign objects — but they can be flocked.

Safe-driving signs TACOMA — Pedestrians are not hood ornaments. That’s the message of a series of eye-catching signs being displayed on Pierce Transit buses and shelters and on the Link trolley as part of a safe-driving campaign. One version of the yellow-and-black caution-style signs shows a human outline being bumped by a car. Another shows an autobicycle collision under an admonishment: “Don’t disappoint your driver’s ed teacher.” City officials said they wanted a campaign that would make people stop and think, but one that was humorous rather than preachy. A grant from the state Health Department helped pay the “Drive Nice Tacoma” campaign’s $25,000 cost. It is a joint project of the city and the Tacoma Pierce County Health Department.

YMCA offers after-school arts program By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News
PORT TOWNSEND — An intensive after-school arts program that will provide students with experience and a portfolio will begin under the auspices of the Jefferson County Family YMCA on Jan. 3. “There is a real call for something like this here for young adults,” said Jim Funaro, executive program director of the YMCA at Mountain View Commons, 1919 Blaine St., Port Townsend. “We put together an after-school environment that focuses on arts and academics and keeps the Charlie Bermant/Peninsula Daily News kids in a warm, safe place,” Carol Heath Stabile, left and Yvonne Pepin-Wakefield discuss the Funaro said.
curriculum for the arts program they will teach beginning Jan. 4.
Arts, academics Funaro described the program as a bargain. For $100, students from 12 to 18 years old can participate in a five-day-a-week, eightweek after-school program that combines a variety of artistic disciplines. It differs from the Y’s current after-school in that it is for older students — the present after-school program is for children from
6 to 12 years of age — and is focused on both arts and academics, Funaro said. Arts will be taught Tuesday through Thursday. On Monday and Friday, students will receive academic support, both in the form of instruction about study skills and through tutoring. Each day, students will gather in the gym, where they will find group activi-
ties from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. At 4 p.m. — after all the students have arrived — arts activities will begin and continue until 5:30 p.m. Students can remain at the YMCA, with a staff member available, until 6 p.m., Funaro said. Funaro said that the addition to the YMCA’s offerings was not a response to the formation earlier this
year of the Community Arts and Recreational Alliance — or CARA — to provide arts instruction. Instead, the Y’s new program is “a response to what I’ve heard in the community from adults and teenagers” and also to the results of a city survey, Funaro said. He said that 15 students will be the optimum number for the class, at least in
its first iteration. The class has three instructors. Yvonne PepinWakefield, Carol Heath Stabile and Karen Sisk are all experienced educators and/or artists. The three have developed a program outline that will, according to Stabile, “explore relevant themes through writing, drawing technique and color exploration.” Students with apparent artistic aptitude are welcome, but Stabile welcomes those who feel that they have no talent. “This type of program has not been offered in Port Townsend with this caliber of instructors,” Pepin-Wakefield said. “This is not an arts and crafts class. There will be a measurable output.” Pepin-Wakefield said the program is necessary because “with the cutbacks in the arts here, students are not getting the opportunity to create solid bodies of work.” While the instructors have a class outline, they have resolved to use a flexible syllabus and concentrate on where student
interest guides the curriculum. The first excursion will be a Jan. 8 trip to the Seattle Art Museum to see the exhibit of Picasso masterpieces from the Musée National Picasso in Paris, currently showing through Jan. 17.
Excursion to Seattle The field trip will be at no extra costs for the students. Following this, potential topics include self-portraits, food, graffiti and comic book art. “We will let the kids decide where they want to go,” Stabile said. The Jefferson County YMCA is a branch of the Clallam County Family YMCA. Funaro has said that money raised in Jefferson County for YMCA stays in the community.

jelly-like substance and serve as external magnetic receptors, said Stephen Kajiura, an associate professor in the Department of Biological Sciences at Florida Atlantic University. Sharks can even determine when they are moving north and south or east and west. Rays have a similar detection system. Turtles have magnetic receptors connected to their central nervous system. “This mechanism allows them to have long ocean migrations in an environment where everything is blue, there are no landmarks and you can’t tell east from west and north from south,” Kajiura said. Lobsters, crabs, tuna and other species are thought to have similar guidance systems. Salmon may have some type of chemicals in their brains that detect the earth’s magnetic fields, though Kajiura and Copping cautioned that more research is needed to be certain. “We are not sure about salmon,” Copping said. “No one has ever been able to show how they navigate back to their streams.” Kajiura has studied how underwater electric cables can affect a shark’s behavior. The cables can create electromagnetic fields. “Sharks will bite at them [the cables], thinking they are prey,” he said. “It’s not a new phenomenon. The cables may very well produce magnetic fields

Both Copping and Kajiura said it was important to have some scientific answers to questions regulators are sure to ask. “It’s coming so fast, regulators are asking questions we don’t have answers to,” said Kajiura. “It would be nice to have some baseline research before we move ahead.”

Fake: Counterfeits cost almost $250 billion Nationwide, 95 percent of our overseas cargo moves through our ports, the CBP says. A million of those ubiquitous, 40-foot metal containers, the agency said, arrived by ocean in Seattle and Tacoma in fiscal 2009. And they have to be checked out. Counterfeiting costs U.S. businesses $200 billion to $250 billion annually, according to the International Anticounterfeiting Coalition, composed of affected companies.
Same techniques These days, the same techniques implemented after the Sept. 11 attacks to look for terrorist weapons also nab that counterfeit detergent. Customs and Border Protection, or CBP, now is the largest law-enforcement agency in the country, with about 58,000 employees. The old Immigration and Naturalization Service, U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Customs and federal agriculture inspectors were combined in 2003. Its search for illicit goods includes: Sending the containers through a radiation portal monitor that looks a bit like a toll booth, and records

And this particular shipment had been listed as “organic soap,” which sounded a bit too general, said Doug McBride, Seattle spokesman for the CBP. The container was routed to a warehouse the agency has south of downtown Seattle, stacked with boxes of goods to be inspected. Poor quality When a sampling of the “Look at the quality of detergent boxes was opened, the zippers.

Officers sit in front of monitors that rank radiation. Ceramics, for example, emit naturally occurring harmless radiation. But a neutron alert might come from something like oil-drilling equipment. Or it could come from plutonium to make a nuke. Randomly selecting containers and shooting them with gamma rays to show the physical shape of what’s inside, even through six inches of steel. This is called a “nonintrusive inspection” to keep commerce flowing, meaning the container isn’t examined physically unless the

If larvae is found, the container is fumigated and might be shipped back to its originating port. Using dogs trained to sniff for hidden currency, drugs, explosives and human stowaways. Coming through customs at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, the dogs have such a keen sense of smell that they’ll sit by your side (not a good sign) even if your only contact with pot was smoking a joint hours
contents of the detergent still unknown. If you’re thinking about turning a quick profit selling counterfeits, on eBay for example, consider the price if you are caught. On Oct. 1, Genevieve Rullan, 34, of Seattle was sentenced in U.S. District Court to 30 days in jail, 120 days of home confinement, 150 hours of community service and three years of supervised release and ordered to pay $64,500 in restitution for selling counterfeit “Ab Circle Pro” exercisers on eBay, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Rullan sold more than 1,000 counterfeit items between 2008 and 2009, and that a search of her home found 210 of the fake units. The fakes will end up in a landfill, as customers complained about their low quality. “I think she was paying $16 for them, and selling them on eBay for anywhere from $130 to $150,” Staudt said. She says someone such as Rullan could have ordered the fakes from plenty of websites. So for her staff, whether designer bags, exercise equipment or laundry soap, the chase is always on. “Easy money,” Staudt said. “It comes down to easy money.”

She said Christmas Eve was especially busy with last-minute buyers. “We had a lot of fun — especially with the gentlemen,” she said.
“It is a lot of fun to see them come in and pick things out and we wrap it up and get it all ready.” Petersen said children were also delighted to find that the cookies in the store weren’t reserved just for Santa.

Port Angeles Walmart Supercenter manager Becky McDonald said there was no way to compare this year to last year because of the recently opened larger store, which now includes groceries. “It is such a totally different situation,” she said. Among its best sold products were pillows with stuffed animal heads and paws on them called
Pillow Pets. “I think it surprised a lot of people,” she said, “but those were very popular this year.” Forks Outfitters owner Burt Paul said sales were about the same in most departments with increases in hardware and fishing gear. “Hardware and sporting goods were very strong this year,” he said. “Hardware led our sales increases and fishing and men’s hardware items did very well — tools and that type of thing.”

Commentary

World is catching up with America Oil is back above $90 a barrel. Copper and cotton have hit record highs. Wheat and corn prices are Paul way up. Overall, Krugman world commodity prices have risen by a quarter in the past six months. So what’s the meaning of this surge? Is it speculation run amok? Is it the result of excessive money creation, a harbinger of runaway inflation just around the corner? No and no. What the commodity markets are telling us is that we’re living in a finite world, in which the rapid growth of emerging economies is placing pressure on limited supplies of raw materials, pushing up their prices. And America is, for the most part, just a bystander in this story. Some background: The last time the prices of oil and other commodities were this high 2½ years ago, many commentators dismissed the price
spike as an aberration driven by speculators. And they claimed vindication when commodity prices plunged in the second half of 2008. But that price collapse coincided with a severe global recession, which led to a sharp fall in demand for raw materials. The big test would come when the world economy recovered. Would raw materials once again become expensive? Well, it still feels like a recession in America. But thanks to growth in developing nations, world industrial production recently passed its previous peak — and, sure enough, commodity prices are surging again. This doesn’t necessarily mean that speculation played no role in 2007-2008. Nor should we reject the notion that speculation is playing some role in current prices. For example, who is that mystery investor who has bought up much of the world’s copper supply? But the fact that world economic recovery has also brought a recovery in commodity prices strongly suggests that recent price fluctuations mainly reflect fundamental factors. What about commodity prices as a harbinger of inflation?
Many commentators on the right have been predicting for years that the Federal Reserve, by printing lots of money — it’s not actually doing that, but that’s the accusation — is setting us up for severe inflation. Stagflation is coming, declared Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., in February 2009; Glenn Beck has been warning about imminent hyperinflation since 2008. Yet inflation has remained low. What’s an inflation worrier to do? One response has been a proliferation of conspiracy theories, of claims that the government is suppressing the truth about rising prices. But lately many on the right have seized on rising commodity prices as proof that they were right all along, as a sign of high overall inflation just around the corner. You do have to wonder what these people were thinking two years ago, when raw material prices were plunging. If the commodity-price rise of the past six months heralds runaway inflation, why didn’t the 50 percent decline in the second half of 2008 herald runaway deflation? Inconsistency aside, however, the big problem with those blaming the Fed for rising commodity prices is that they’re suffering
Peninsula Voices
from delusions of U.S. economic grandeur. Commodity prices are set globally, and what America does just isn’t that important a factor. In particular, today, as in 20072008, the primary driving force behind rising commodity prices isn’t demand from the United States. It’s demand from China and other emerging economies. As more and more people in formerly poor nations are entering the global middle class, they’re beginning to drive cars and eat meat, placing growing pressure on world oil and food supplies. And those supplies aren’t keeping pace. Conventional oil production has been flat for four years; in that sense, at least, peak oil has arrived. True, alternative sources, like oil from Canada’s tar sands, have continued to grow. But these alternative sources come at relatively high cost, both monetary and environmental. Also, over the past year, extreme weather — especially severe heat and drought in some important agricultural regions — played an important role in driving up food prices. And, yes, there’s every reason
Our readers’ letters, faxes
to believe that climate change is making such weather episodes more common. So what are the implications of the recent rise in commodity prices? It is, as I said, a sign that we’re living in a finite world, one in which resource constraints are becoming increasingly binding. This won’t bring an end to economic growth, let alone a descent into Mad Max-style collapse. It will require that we gradually change the way we live, adapting our economy and our lifestyles to the reality of more expensive resources. But that’s for the future. Right now, rising commodity prices are basically the result of global recovery. They have no bearing, one way or another, on U.S. monetary policy. For this is a global story; at a fundamental level, it’s not about us.

A BRITISH COLUMBIA woman has been found guilty of blowing over the legal limit — despite her defense that she burped when the officer wasn’t looking during the breathalyzer test, causing alcohol fumes that could have led to a spike in the reading. Geraldine Guichon was charged with impaired driving and blowing over 0.08 percent in September 2007, after she was stopped at a police road check. In a decision last week, Provincial Court Judge Elizabeth Bayliff found Guichon guilty of blowing over 0.08 but not guilty of the impaired charge, citing lack of evidence. Victoria Times Colonist
Nervy work that makes us all we can be By Don Corson I AM A geographer and historian by academic background and for some time now have been a winemaker. The views I want to share are based on both of these frames of reference and relate to how we see ourselves here on the North Olympic PeninCorson sula and what we do to both preserve and enhance our civic lives together. I have observed from living here for 20 years that we are often plagued by a tendency to aim low and hit it. It isn’t for a lack of wanting to aim higher, but for a local culture that often is voiced at public
meetings that something grand is “too good for us,” “we don’t need that,” or “that’s too big-city.” It seems like the longer one lives here the more the endemic lament virus infects. Enthusiasm for thinking outside of the box is effectively punished as impractical and not what we do around here. Modesty and frugality are virtues. Mediocrity is not, even if it is the product of “consensus.” I do see many examples of excellence all around us and it’s not just in our God-given scenery. Our medical community is top rated, Westport Shipyard and Angeles Composite Technologies are shining lights of value-added manufacture, our school systems in Clallam and Jefferson counties regularly crank graduates that compete with the best in the country under the most adverse financial circumstances.

Our festivals bring thousands for quality authentic experiences. I believe we must hold each other accountable to foster local excellence. We do know it when we see it, and excellence in all we do needs to become the culture here. As a winemaker, I chose several years ago to begin entering international competitions to see how our wines fared. Are they competitive? I found out I had work to do, and now they can be found from Manhattan to Houston. Without objective feedback, all of us can slump into the “it’s good enough” mode, and that is not good enough anymore. Probably never was. I applaud the nervy work by civic groups and elected officials to have experts come in and help us see beyond our noses — whether that is the American
Institute of Architects group looking at downtown Port Angeles a couple of years ago or consultants planning an enhanced waterfront or new entry signage for Port Angeles or the consistent excellence of bringing arts to the community by Centrum at Fort Worden in Jefferson County. Our region is not the end of the world geographically as much as a portal to the rest of it. Shipping traffic we see in the Strait of Juan de Fuca should be metaphor for welcoming of the newest and best the world has to offer. Equally, we should be a community that offers that world our own excellent local products and services. We do not have to be literally passed by or flown over. While these are tight financial times, it does not mean we as Peninsula communities should

Join me in fostering a culture of excellence here by first thanking folks that are already doing it, approve our school levies, purchase locally excellent goods and services, stand up to say the proposed portal signage for Port Angeles isn’t there yet, or what ever your cause for excellence might be. Together we can help our area not just be “good enough,” we can make it as good as it gets. And we can all toast to that.

Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell, above, called the U.S. a nation of wusses after the NFL game between Philadelphia and Minnesota was moved back to tonight instead of Sunday night because of a winter blizzard.
Are we a wuss nation? ESPN.com
news services
The city of Philadelphia is set to host the NFL’s first Tuesday night game in 64 years tonight, and Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell couldn’t be more upset about it. “It goes against everything that football is all about,” Rendell said Monday on radio station 97.5 The Fanatic in Philadelphia. Rendell was rankled by the league’s decision to move the Philadelphia Eagles’ home game against the Minnesota Vikings from Sunday night to this evening. The NFL cited the winter storm that wound up slamming most of the East Coast as the reason for the change, but elected to postpone the game before any snow had even accumulated. About a foot of snow fell on Philadelphia, though less than 5 inches was on the ground before the scheduled kickoff at 5:20 p.m. PST Sunday night. Rendell viewed the NFL’s decision as a referendum on the toughness, or lack thereof, of the United States. “My biggest beef is that this is part of what’s happened in this country,” Rendell said. “I think we’ve become wussies.” “We’ve become a nation of wusses. The Chinese are kicking our butt in everything,” Rendell added. “If this was in China, do you think the Chinese would have called off the game? “People would have been marching down to the stadium, they would have walked and they would have been doing calculus on the way down.” For his part, Vikings tight end Visanthe Shiancoe was also surprised by the league’s decision. “The roads are bad for East Coast standards,” Shiancoe said. “But if this was in the Midwest, there would be no way that this would be delayed. No way it would be delayed in the Midwest. “No way. It’s something that baffles me. But I’m not here to make decisions on when games are played.” Eagles management backed up the NFL. “People are free to have their opinions on whether or not [Sunday] night’s Eagles game should have been postponed,” Eagles team president Joe Banner said. “That decision was ultimately made by the NFL. “Any criticism of the mayor, who was not involved in this decision, is completely unfair.” Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, who called a state of emergency for the city six hours before the originally scheduled kickoff, told ESPN on Sunday that the choice to move the game was not the city’s decision but the league’s. Obviously, that decision has not sat well with the state’s governor. “What do you think [Hall of Fame coach Vince] Lombardi would say?” Rendell asked Monday. “He would say that we’ve become a nation of wusses.” The NFL’s 23rd Tuesday game will be played at 5 p.m. PST, and televised nationally by NBC. It was originally scheduled for 1 p.m. on Sunday, but was shifted because of the NFL’s flex scheduling.

RENTON — Pete Carroll’s already in playoff mode, even if his Seattle Seahawks probably don’t deserve to be considering playing after Week 17. “We have to get focused in a unique way I think, because last week we leave behind us, last season we leave behind us, and it comes down to championship time,” Carroll said on Monday. The second half of the season has been a mess for the Seahawks (6-9), but the fact remains a win on Sunday over St. Louis will give Seattle a division championship banner to hang, a home playoff game to host, and the dubious distinction of being the first sub-.500 division winner in NFL history.

ATLANTA — After tossing up two throws in the fourth quarter that he wishes never left his hand, Drew Brees connected on the one that really counted for the New Orleans Saints. Brees shook off a pair of interceptions in the final period, hooking up with rookie Jimmy Graham on a 6-yard touchdown with 3:24 remaining to give New Orleans a 17-14 victory over the Atlanta on Monday night. Brees and the Saints denied the Falcons from clinching the NFC South title and home-field advantage in the playoffs. And Who Dat going back to the playoffs?

same time, we’re just taking advantage of the situation we’re in,” Seahawks receiver Ben Obomanu said. The Seahawks flaws were exposed again by Tampa Bay, even though by the time Seattle took the field they were aware the game had no meaning. The Rams’ win earlier in the day created the situation where win or lose, the Seahawks and Rams would decide the division in the final week. Carroll was hoping for a little momentum to carry forward and got none. Seattle’s offense stalled without Hasselbeck running the show, gaining just 112 yards in the eight possessions after Whitehurst entered. The run game was especially appalling, with Marshawn Lynch gaining 29 yards on his first carry and just 24 on his next 13. Seattle finished with 90
yards rushing, the eighth time in the Seahawks nine losses they were held under 100 yards. But the situation is just as bad on defense where Seattle made Josh Freeman look unstoppable. The young Bucs quarterback threw for five touchdowns, while rookie running back LeGarrette Blount rumbled for careerhigh 164 yards. Tampa Bay became the sixth team this season to top 400 total yards against the Seahawks defense. And still, a win over the Rams hands Seattle a division title. “So this is something that we’ve aimed for,” Carroll said. “It’s come in kind of an unusual manner, but the fact that we’re there, we’re going to go for it and be excited about it and see if we can put together a great game.”
SHREVEPORT, La. — Air Force was struggling to run the ball and failed to convert a few great opportunities in the passing game. Instead of growing frustrated and losing focus, the Falcons kept plugging along. Their persistence paid off. Air Force cashed in when Georgia Tech muffed a punt in the second half of the Independence Bowl, getting a go-ahead touchdown run from Jared Tew in a 14-7 victory Monday. “Our discipline really shined in this game,” Falcons defensive tackle Rick Ricketts said. “We liked our game plan going in. It was pretty straight forward, so it was just a matter of executing.” It was a matchup between the two best rushing teams in the country, but the game was largely decided by special teams. Backup kicker Zack Bell converted the first two fieldgoal attempts of his career before Tew’s 3-yard run gave the Falcons (9-4) the lead for good. Air Force’s only touchdown came four plays after Daniel McKayhan’s second muffed punt of the game — the third of four Georgia Tech turnovers. “There’s some poise that these guys have,” Air Force coach Troy Calhoun said. Georgia Tech’s 327 yards rushing per game this season edged Air Force’s 317.9 average for the nation’s top spot. Both teams use a heavy dose of option, which often catches opponents off guard because it’s a relatively rare offense. But with each defense familiar with the scheme, there were no surprises, and both teams were held under their season rushing average — Georgia Tech with 279 and Air Force with 170. Air Force’s Tim Jefferson completed 11 of 23 passes for 117 yards.
Independence Bell’s field goals came from 41 and 42 yards. Georgia Tech’s Tevin Washington rushed for 131 yards and Anthony Allen added 91 as Georgia Tech outgained Air Force 320287. But the Yellow Jackets had three costly fumbles. Georgia Tech (6-7) came into the game hobbled by injuries, academic casualties and misbehavior. Joshua Nesbitt, the ACC’s career leading rusher for a quarterback, missed the game because of a broken right arm. Top receiver Stephen Hill and starting safety Mario Edwards were among four players declared ineligible because of various academic issues. The Yellow Jackets announced Sunday that defensive end Anthony Egbuniwe and defensive backs Michael Peterson and Louis Young would miss the first half because of a curfew violation. Even with all those issues, Georgia Tech probably would have won if not for the turnovers. Instead, the Yellow Jackets dropped their sixth consecutive bowl and posted their first losing season in 14 years. Bell’s 42-yard field goal gave Air Force the lead in the first quarter, but Georgia Tech responded with a 12-play, 69-yard drive capped by Anthony Allen’s 5-yard touchdown run. The clock-chewing possession was all running plays as the Yellow Jackets ran over and around the Falcons’ defense. Air Force was much more willing to take shots through the air, throwing 17 passes in the first half, but couldn’t take advantage of its opportunities. Jonathan Warzeka dropped what looked to be a sure touchdown pass in the second quarter, and the Falcons couldn’t convert on three fourth-down opportunities in the first half.
Mitchell of EWU returns to Texas as a winner The Associated Press
CHENEY — When Bo Levi Mitchell last walked off a football field in Dallas, he had lost his starting quarterback job at Southern Methodist University. He returns Jan. 7, leading Eastern Washington (12-2) in the Football Championship Subdivision national title game against Delaware (12-2) in a suburb of the Texas city. The Jan. 7 game is at Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, not far from the SMU stadium where Mitchell started 19 games before losing his job in 2009 following a shoulder injury. “I’m really excited to go back there and play near my hometown,” said Mitchell, a native of Katy, Texas. “I will have a lot of family and friends there who haven’t seen me for awhile.” Coach Beau Baldwin is pleased the way it has turned out for his junior star. “Everyone is pretty excited, but obviously Bo going back home to Texas is a neat story for him,” Baldwin said. Mitchell transferred to EWU and has led the Eagles
to the first title game in their history. He’s looking forward to some warm weather after what has already been a record-breaking winter in the Spokane area. “Just to go back and play in some warm weather, instead of the freezing cold,” Mitchell said after the Eagles beat Villanova in the semifinal in chilly Cheney. “I don’t know if you ever get used to it, but you learn to adapt.” Mitchell did more than adapt. He completed 271 of 462 passes for 3,194 yards, with 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions this season. Mitchell was recruited out of high school by EWU coach Beau Baldwin but chose SMU, where he started as a freshman under coach June Jones. He was injured seven games into his sophomore year and replaced by Kyle Padron. Mitchell watched as Padron led the Mustangs to five wins in six games to finish 8-5 and defeat Nevada in the Hawaii Bowl. That’s when he took another look at Eastern Washington. “I wasn’t done playing yet,” Mitchell said.

Christmas feeling hasn’t quite left shoppers yet EDITOR’S NOTE — A look at holiday sales across the North Olympic Peninsula is on Page A1 today. By Anne D’innocenzio The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Forget the returns line. Across the nation, people hit the stores after Christmas to buy, indulging the rediscovered retail appetite that may have made 2010’s holiday shopping season the biggest ever. Revenue for the holiday season is on track to grow at its strongest rate since 2006. Total spending for November and December could exceed 2007 sales — the best season on record — despite an uncertain economy and a rise in thrifty habits. Shoppers spent more on their family and friends and for the first time since before the Great Recession, treated themselves and even their pets. And after Christmas, even an East Coast blizzard didn’t kill the mood as they headed to stores armed with gift cards and eyeing a new crop of discounts. Mall of America’s spokesman Dan Jasper reported
The Associated Press
A shopper at the Brea Mall in Brea, Calif., carries bags full of packages Sunday. Monday that shoppers are doing more buying and less returning this week than a year ago. “People are definitely treating themselves,” particularly to jeans and accessories, he said from the giant shopping center in Bloomington, Minn.
Clothing sales up Shoppers spent more across the board this holiday season. Clothing sales rose 11.2 percent. Jewelry and luxury goods showed strong singledigit gains compared with a
year ago, though they’ve not returned to pre-recession levels, according to data released late Monday by MasterCard Advisors’ SpendingPulse. Total consumer spending excluding autos, rose 5.5 percent to $584.3 billion from Nov. 5 through Dec. 24, compared with the same 50-day period a year ago, according to SpendingPulse. That marks the biggest increase since 2007, when revenue rose 4.9 percent. Total sales surpassed 2007 holiday spending, which reached $566.34 bil-
lion, though the figures aren’t adjusted for inflation. “In 2008, stores were knocked down. In 2009, they found some stability, and in 2010, they took a step forward toward growth,” said Michael McNamara, vice president of research and analysis for SpendingPulse, which tracks spending across all transactions including cash. Spending was strong since the start of the holiday shopping season in November and the momentum continued through Christmas Eve, a surprising sign of strength for the economy. Consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of U.S. economic activity.
Conservative mentality People spent more even as they held on to frugal habits learned during the Great Recession, from focusing on big bargains to paying with cash. That conservative shopping mentality was clear as shoppers rummaged through clearance bins at stores and malls this week.
U.S. mishandled land trades with Calif., Wash., audit says By Jacob Adelman The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The U.S. Bureau of Land Management overstepped its authority to exchange federal land in California and Washington state by buying and selling properties outside of Congress’ appropriations process, according to a government audit released Monday. The Government Accountability Office report said the BLM’s land transactions completed since 1995 in Washington involved the sale or purchase of properties, rather than the straightforward trades that the agency is permitted to perform. In California, where the BLM worked on land deals in conjunction with the U.S. General Service Administration, all but two transactions since 1995 involved buying or selling land, the agency said. “BLM’s actions circum-
vent the carefully crafted statutory framework governing the sale, purchase, and exchange of public land — a framework designed to protect the public interest,” the GAO report said. A BLM spokesman referred questions to the bureau’s parent agency, the U.S. Department of the Interior. Interior spokeswoman Kendra Barkoff said her agency was reviewing the report. A phone message left with the GSA was not returned Monday.
Idaho company The report details seven transactions involving the sale or purchase of land in Washington that the BLM completed with Orofino, Idaho-based Clearwater Land Exchange, a private business that helps facilitate property swaps for government agencies. Carla Laws, a Clearwater partner, said all of its
transactions with the BLM have been exchanges, although some “phased exchanges” involve holding money from sales in escrow until new purchases can be made. The report did not specify the number of transactions completed in California but detailed several deals where the BLM appeared not to have completed simple exchanges. One identified as the “Dixon transactions” showed the BLM and GSA bought land from California, rather than offering federal land as a trade. In another series of transactions, the GSA was accused of selling surplus federal property to thirdparty buyers at the BLM’s direction. Phone messages and e-mails left with the Government Accountability Office seeking details about the number of California deals and the locations of the purchases in both states
were not immediately returned. In its report, the accountability office also faulted the BLM for not depositing money from sales into an account designated for purchasing new property, which was thereby depleted “of amounts it should have received to fund qualifying land purchases.” The BLM instead used Treasury deposit fund accounts, a type of account that is designated for money not controlled by the government. The office said the BLM currently has at least $7.9 million from sales in California in a deposit fund account. The report did not specify a figure for sales in Washington state. The accountability Office also said the BLM’s practices could have cost revenue, since it sold land directly to interested buyers instead of putting it out for competitive bids.

Estes helps community aid groups SEQUIM — Estes Builders shared its longstanding practice of giving to the community by holding its annual Holiday Celebration and Food Drive. “More than ever, our neighbors and local charitable organizations need support,” said Patricia Mitts, food drive coordinator for Estes Builders. “We bring together our homeowners and clients for a bit of cheer and to help stock the shelves at the Sequim Food Bank, a cause we mutually support.” Estes Builders’ team of employees also sponsored eight children through the Salvation Army Christmas Angel program. “We are confident that these contributions will help these organizations carry out their mission to help those in need,” said Erin Baumstark of Estes Builders. “It is rewarding to help sustain our local nonprofit agencies during challenging economic times.” Other agencies receiving financial assistance from Estes Builders this season include the Dungeness Valley Health and Wellness Clinic, Peninsula Daily News’ Peninsula Home Fund and United Way of Clallam County.

around and sells them for thousands more.” Special elimination vehicles will be clearly marked with two prices. The first price is the retail price. This is the price that you would expect to see if you went used car shopping at local car dealers. The second price is the drastically reduced elimination price. This is the price that the vehicle will be sold for. This type of pricing will make it quick and easy to find the car you want at a price you can afford. The selection of cars, trucks, minivans, sport utility vehicles and motorcycles will be huge.
Truckloads of cars, trucks, minivans, sport utility vehicles and motorcycles from around the Northwest have been assembled on the property of Koenig Chevrolet Subaru, 3501 E. Highway 101 (across from Walmart), in Port Angeles for this special 5-day event with over 150 vehicles to choose from. During this sale, financing assistance will not be a problem. Local banks, finance companies and credit groups have agreed to help buyers finance these vehicles regardless of past credit history.
Buyers will find best-selling models from Chevrolet, Ford, Dodge, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac. Popular import models from Subaru, Mercedes, Kia, Hyundai, Honda, Toyota and Nissan, as well as scooters and motorcycles by Honda, Vespa, Piaggio, Moto Guzzi and Harley Davidson will also be available. There will be approximately 20 vehicles priced below $8,995 to choose from.
According to the Event Finance Director, because all of the vehicles will be sold below the Kelley Blue Book value, little to no down payment will be necessary to obtain preferred financing. Even buyers with less than perfect credit will be able to obtain on-the-spot credit approval. This is a great opportunity to get a fantastic price and get the best financing terms available.
If you or anyone that you know is in the market for a great car, truck, minivan, sport utility vehicle, scooter or motorcycle, then you need to make plans to attend this special sale this week.
The Event Coordinator for this event said, “We will help the banks and finance companies by selling these vehicles. Banks would prefer selling to the general public at a great price rather than taking them to private auctions where the dealer buys them and turns

Loneliness worth bride’s happiness
Tundra
DEAR ABBY: I am responding to “Single Still in Little Rock,” the 34-year-old woman who is anxious about whether she’ll ever marry. I married for the first time at 67. After retiring from a 45-year career in nursing, I met a wonderful, caring and interesting man who had lost his first wife years earlier. Neither “Sam” nor I was looking for a spouse at the time. (Truthfully, I had given up.) We were introduced by a mutual friend at church and soon knew we were meant to be together. My advice to “Single” is to continue living a full and productive life, remain open to making new friends, look for a man who had a happy first marriage and don’t give in to your anxieties. My husband and I know our time together is limited. We strive to make the most of every day, overlooking small and unimportant differences and focusing on making each other happy. I am an integral part of Sam’s family, including his sons and their offspring. It’s a wonderful life, and I’m grateful I was able to endure some loneliness when I was younger for all that I have now. Rose in Tucson
For Better or For Worse
Pickles
Dear Rose: Your letter is inspiring. “Single Still” requested that I ask readers for their success stories in finding love “later in life,” and true to form you responded in huge numbers. Bless you all! Read on:
Frank & Ernest
Dear Abby: For many years, I desperately wanted to be married. Therefore, I measured everyone who asked me out as a possible husband and either scared them away or allowed myself to be used. Finally, after living in a number of large cities, my career moved me to a tiny rural town. By then, I had lost hope of finding Mr. Right, so I quit looking. Best thing I ever did! I learned to enjoy life for what it offered each day, not pine for a mate. I found myself enjoying friendships with men because I saw them as friends, not potential husbands. Out of the blue, some pals arranged a blind date with “the only eligible bachelor” left in town. We were married less than six months later — at ages 34 and 38 —

and just celebrated our 21st anniversary. Loving My Life in Minnesota
Dear Abby: I consider my “failed” relationships opportunities to learn something. The main lesson is I must love who I am first and be less concerned about where a relationship is going. When you’re happy, pursuing your own interests and developing yourself as a person, someone with a similar perspective will come along. Instead of bemoaning my single status, I’m on Internet dating sites — a great platform for meeting people who share my interests. Sondra in Tennessee Dear Abby: I held off on marrying until my career was stable. My wife and I married when we were 35. For years, we have traveled without worrying about baby sitters or being home by a certain time. We have formed friendships with other childless couples and share “family” holidays. We dote on our nieces and nephews. If “Single” still wants children and is concerned about the health aspects of pregnancy at an older age, adoption is available. Married Man in Texas Dear Abby: At age 30, with the help of a therapist, I realized I was approaching this thing all wrong. Instead of dating men who were looking at me, I was running after every gorgeous guy I saw. It didn’t work, so I stopped chasing and let myself be chased. I was married in five years. Love isn’t always “at first sight.” Been There in Oakland, Calif.
