Body on West End shoreline Family of missing fisherman contacted By Tom Callis

Peninsula Daily News

OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK — A body recovered Friday from a West Jefferson County beach just north of the Hoh River remained unidentified Saturday. The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office believes the body might be that of 21-yearold Hoh tribal member David Hudson Jr. whose boat on the Hoh River capsized last month and who went missing. Relatives were expected to meet with a deputy Saturday evening to try to identify the body. Chief Criminal Deputy Joe Nole and Sheriff Tony Hernandez couldn’t be reached Saturday night to get the results of that meeting. Hoh Chairwoman Maria Lopez and Hudson’s relatives also couldn’t be reached. The body, while male, was too decomposed to be identified by authorities. Nole said Friday that the Sheriff’s Office believes the deceased man is Hudson based on its state of decomposition and location near the river. Turn

PORT TOWNSEND — There’s Thanksgiving. That’s the same Thursday in November every year. Everybody eats too much, and hardly anybody goes shopping except for lastminute cranberry sauce. Then there’s the day after Thanksgiving, when big-box merchants open their doors early with loss-leader lures and scores of “best-ever” deals on limited numbers of big-ticket items they hope will make us linger longer. And now there’s Small Business Saturday, which American Express kicked off this year, with Port Townsend as one of the three cities in the nation to get special attention and help make the new emphasis on local neighborhood businesses a regular tradition On Saturday, the streets were very busy.

Hadlock marina damage probed 6 boats harmed during heavy winds, waves Peninsula Daily News

PORT HADLOCK — The Coast Guard will investigate further this week the cause of damage at the Port Hadlock Marina during last week’s storm.

Six boats were damaged in high winds and waves at the marina Monday, said Petty Officer Shay Hutchings, Coast Guard pollution investigator. Hutchings said there was some damage to the breakwater and to the dock but that he didn’t know if the damage was caused by boats or high wind and waves. He expected to return to the marina this week to investigate. “Everything was shaking,” said liveaboard Paul Anderson last

FRANK FENNER, 95. an Australian scientist who played an important role in the World Health Organization’s decade-long campaign to eradicate smallpox and who made the official announcement, in 1980, that the disease had been Dr. Fenner conquered once and for all, died Monday in Canberra, Australia. Dr. Fenner, a virologist and microbiologist who developed an interest in viruses while doing research on malaria during World War II, became a national hero in Australia in the early 1950s, when he helped direct a program to control the spread of the country’s 600 million feral rabbits, which were nibbling their way through the country’s pastureland. In 1969, after doing research on pox viruses, including the variola virus, which causes smallpox, Dr. Fenner began advising the World Health Organization on its campaign to eliminate smallpox. In 1977, Dr. Fenner was named the chairman of the Global Commission for the Certification of Smallpox Eradication. As the campaign neared its goal, he was able to demonstrate that there were no animal

carriers of the disease left, an important step in declaring victory over the disease. The last known case of naturally transmitted smallpox was recorded in Somalia in 1977, and Dr. Fenner pronounced its epitaph in Geneva on May 8, 1980.

Bomb suspect sought a ‘spectacular show’ FBI agents intercept plan, provide him fake explosives By Tim Fought and Nedra Pickler The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — A Somaliborn teenager plotted “a spectacular show” of terrorism for months, saying he didn’t mind that children would die if he bombed a crowded Christmas tree-lighting ceremony, according to a law enforcement official and court documents. He never got the chance. Mohamed Osman Mohamud, 19, was arrested Friday in downtown Portland after using a cell phone to try to detonate what he thought were explosives in a van, prosecutors said. It turned out to be a dummy bomb put together by FBI agents, and authorities said the public was never in danger. The case is the latest in a string of alleged terrorist planning by U.S. citizens or residents, including a Times Square plot in which a Pakistan-born man pleaded guilty earlier this year to trying to set off a car bomb at a busy street corner. In the Portland plot, Mohamud believed he was receiving help from a larger ring of jihadists as he communicated with undercover agents, but a law enforcement official who wasn’t authorized to discuss the case publicly and spoke on a condition of anonymity told The Associated Press that no foreign terrorist organization was directing him. The official said Mohamud planned the details, including where to park the van to hurt the most people.

Kill or injure “I want whoever is attending that event to leave, to leave dead or injured,” Mohamud said, according to the affidavit. Thousands of people gathered Friday night for the annual event at Pioneer Courthouse Square. Mohamud was arrested at 5:40 p.m. The tree-lighting went off without a hitch. Mohamud graduated from high school in Beaverton, Ore. He was enrolled at Oregon State University over the past year but withdrew Oct. 6, the school said. The law enforcement official who spoke to the AP said agents

Quick Read

began investigating Mohamud after receiving a tip from someone concerned about him. The FBI monitored M o h a m u d ’ s Mohamud e-mail and found he was in contact with people overseas, asking how he could travel to Pakistan and join the fight for jihad, according to an FBI affidavit. The law enforcement official said Mohamud e-mailed a friend living in Pakistan who had been a student in Oregon in 2007-2008 and been in Yemen as well. The e-mail exchanges led the FBI to believe that Mohamud’s friend in Pakistan “had joined others involved in terrorist activities” and was inviting Mohamud to join him, according to the affidavit.

Interviewed by FBI For reasons unexplained, Mohamud tried to board a flight to Kodiak, Alaska, from Portland on June 14, wasn’t allowed to board and was interviewed by the FBI, the affidavit states. Mohamud told the FBI he wanted to earn money fishing and then travel to join “the brothers.” He said he had previously hoped to travel to Yemen but had never obtained a ticket or a visa. On June 23, an agent e-mailed Mohamud, pretending to be affiliated with the “unindicted associate.” The FBI’s affidavit said the friend in Pakistan referred him to another associate but gave him an address Mohamud repeatedly tried e-mailing unsuccessfully. The official said FBI agents saw that as an opportunity and e-mailed in response, claiming to be associates of Mohamud’s friend, the former student. The affidavit said Mohamud was warned several times about the seriousness of his plan, that women and children could die and that he could back out. But he told agents: “Since I was 15, I thought about all this,” and “It’s gonna be a fireworks show . . . a spectacular show.” Mohamud, a naturalized U.S.

citizen, was charged with attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, which carries a maximum sentence of life in prison. A court appearance was set for Monday. Authorities allowed the plot to proceed to build up enough evidence to charge the suspect with the attempt.

Fake bomb Authorities said Mohamud sent bomb components to undercover FBI agents he believed were assembling the explosive device, but the agents supplied the fake bomb that Mohamud tried to detonate twice via his phone. The FBI affidavit said the undercover agent first met Mohamud in person July 30 and asked what he would do for the cause of jihad, suggesting he might want to spread Islam to others, continue studies to help the cause overseas, raise money, become “operational” or become a martyr. Mohamud responded that he wanted to become “operational” but needed training, the affidavit said. When Mohamud was asked what he meant by “operational,” he responded that he wanted to put together an explosion, the affidavit said. The undercover agent said he could introduce him to an explosives expert and asked Mohamud to research potential targets. At a second meeting Aug. 19 at a Portland hotel, the agent brought another undercover agent, the documents said, and Mohamud told them he had selected Pioneer Courthouse Square for the bombing. On Nov. 4, the court documents say, Mohamud made a video in the presence of one of the undercover agents, putting on clothes he described as “Sheik Osama style:” a white robe, red and white headdress, and camouflage jacket. He read a statement speaking of his dream of bringing “a dark day” on Americans and blaming his family for thwarting him, according to the court documents: “To my parents who held me back from Jihad in the cause of Allah. I say to them . . . if you — if you make allies with the enemy, then Allah’s power . . . will ask you about that on the day of judgment, and nothing that you do can hold me back.”

But some 70 percent of respondents were expected to say that lifting the ban would have a positive or mixed effect, or none at all, according to officials familiar with the findings.

A Qantas A380 carrying more than 450 passengers, including the airline’s chief executive, took to the skies Saturday in the first flight by one of its superjumbos since a midair engine explosion three weeks ago triggered a global safety review. Qantas CEO Alan Joyce said he was flying the first leg of the SydneySingapore-London flight as a sign of the airline’s conviction that it had completed all modifications and other checks on the Rolls-Royce engines, and the planes were safe to fly. An engine on one of the superjumbos disintegrated shortly after takeoff from Singapore on Nov. 4.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki said Saturday that an agreement requiring U.S. troops to leave by the end of 2011 will stand because Iraqi forces are capable of taking care of the country’s security. The comments are his first on the subject since being tasked with forming a new government after nearly nine months of political deadlock, and some of his strongest to date on what is expected to be a key issue facing the next government. “The security agreement with what it included of dates and commitments will remain valid,” al-Maliki told reporters.

A man attempting to hijack a Syria-bound flight carrying a number of Iranian lawmakers was arrested on board, Iran’s state radio reported Saturday. Security guards on the Iran Air Tehran-Damascus flight thwarted the attempt and arrested the suspect, who appeared to be mentally unstable, the report said. No one was hurt. The radio report said the Iranian lawmakers were en route to a parliamentary conference in Damascus. The semi-official Fars news agency said the incident happened minutes before the Iran Air flight landed in the Syrian capital.

Early bird gets a shopper’s worm

Holiday:

Carriage Continued from A1 James Arsulich and his trusty steed, Hope, from Port Townsend Livery & Carriage Co. were in from Old Tarboo Farm of Quilcene offering carriage rides. The Wild Rose Chorale was out on the sidewalk, bringing smiles and touching hearts with its rendition of a Welsh lullaby. Mari Mullen of Main Street supervised the video being done to enhance American Expresses future efforts. Anyone with an American Express card who signed up online will receive $25 off their next bill for merchandise purchased with the card at participating stores. Hilary Metzger stopped by the wrapping station run by Darlene Quale, whose students from the Key Club at Port Townsend High School offered an assortment of the specialized wrapping made by Port Townsend Paper Co. The classy oil-cloth apron for her sister drew approving comments. “And I have an American Express card, so I got it for free,” Metzger said, beaming. Erin Holt brought husband Brandon all the way to visit the bead store, while the family sported one of many Small Business Saturday shopping bags seen around town. Patience Holt, 4, had her own shopping bag from The Sand Castle and showed off the bright, early Christmas dinosaur toy inside. Her brother, Kincade, had one, too. Although shorter and looking more like 3, Kincade was clearly practicing for Santa, who arrives in Port Townsend at 4:30 p.m. next Saturday for the lighting of the Christmas tree at Haller Fountain at 4:45 p.m. How old are you, Kincade’s dad prompted him. “I 8,” he said. How old? “I 8,” he insisted.

Cyber Monday? In case the run-on beginnings of the holiday shopping season aren’t enough to loosen the credit cards, tomorrow is Cyber Monday, a phrase coined five years ago when retail market watchers discovered that online shoppers — still a relatively small part of the market — get the fever to spend the Monday following Thanksgiving. Since sales popped up anyway, why not enhance it with good deals? Cyber Monday is still growing in popularity. After Cyber Monday, it’s kind of downhill. There are still 27 as-yet-unnamed shopping days until Christmas.

After-Thanksgiving goodies given away in Port Hadlock By Julie McCormick

For Peninsula Daily News

PORT HADLOCK — It wasn’t unusual for Hazel Peters to be out of bed at 4 a.m. Friday. “I’m always up then anyway,” said the lanky 88-yearold. And since she was up, and her favorite local store, Hadlock Building Supply, was going to open early again this year for the only traditional post-Thanksgiving sale within 50 miles, she and daughter Dianne stopped by for a chance on a prize and to take a look around. There were “lots of good deals,” Hazel declared, but she had to leave before the big drawing to get her hair done. Diane stuck around. You know what’s coming next.

Still under dryer When it came time for the final drawing — a $1,000 gift certificate — Hazel was still under the dryer as the owner’s son, David Kraut, 10, announced her name. She’d no sooner walked back in the door than the gears began to click. “We need some filters,” she said to Dianne, and asked, “how long is this good for, anyway?” No need to hurry, it’s good for as long as it takes to spend, co-owner Bill Kraut assured her, standing by his grinning partner, Cassandra Arey-Rogers.

Owners since March The two longtime employees bought the hardware, equipment rental and construction materials business at 901 Ness Corner Road in Port Hadlock from Kraut’s father-in-law, Joe Lovato, last March.

Hazel Peters Wins $1,000 certificate They hope the retail end keeps on chugging since construction’s taken a dive during this housing-based recession. So far, so good, Kraut said, although the crowd this post-Thanksgiving sale-a-thon was disappointing compared with previous years. “I think it’s the weather,” he said. “We didn’t bring in the electronics this year, or toys — too hard to compete with the big boxes,” he said.

Won pies Dan and Robin Toepper were picking up some lastminute gifts when they learned they’d won some pies from the Chimacum Cafe, practically a historical landmark in the area. The Toeppers did a “big city” day-after-Thanksgiving sale blitz once, they said, at Southcenter near Seattle. Big retailers pass out tickets for the event, and the Toeppers were second tier, missing out on most chances at limited special items. “Never again,” Robin said. This year, as most did, they’d done the bulk of their

Urban Waters Marina: Center soaked Thawing pipe bursts in Tacoma The Associated Press

TACOMA — Tacoma’s new Center for Urban Waters has sprung a leak. The building houses the city’s science and engineering laboratories that test marine water quality and work on cleanup. The News Tribune reported that on Thanksgiving morning, a thawing pipe burst and flooded three floors with water more than an inch deep.

Carbon-monoxide poisoning Fort Worden auctions off abandoned leftovers of 14 a reminder of danger By Julie McCormick

The Associated Press

LYNNWOOD, Snohomish County — The carbonmonoxide poisoning that sent 14 people from a family gathering to hospitals Thursday points out the dangers of using briquettes indoors. Residents of the unit at the Augusta Glen Apartments in Lynnwood may have been cooking over the briquettes at about 9 p.m. when they noticed a 3-yearold boy had passed out, Lynnwood Fire Marshal Leroy McNulty said. Only then did occupants realize the fireplace flue was closed. Cold weather heightens the danger of potentially fatal carbon-monoxide poisoning if charcoal grills, gas grills or gasoline-powered generators are used indoors. A danger of using charcoal briquettes indoors, McNulty said, is that unless food grease is dripped onto them, briquettes give off very little smoke, making it difficult to detect that car-

Ways to keep from getting poisoned ■ Never use gasoline-powered equipment indoors. ■ Never burn charcoal inside homes, vehicles or garages. ■ Do not burn charcoal in the fireplace in your home. ■ Never use a gas oven to heat your home, even for a short time. ■ Never idle a car in a garage, even when the garage door is open. ■ Never sleep in a room while using an unvented gas or kerobon monoxide, which is odorless and colorless, is being given off. By comparison, a wood fire in a fireplace with the flue closed would rapidly spread smoke into the room, making the danger obvious more quickly. Four members of the

sene heater. ■ Make sure chimneys and flues are in good condition and are not blocked. ■ Have fireplaces, wood stoves and oil or gas appliances checked every year by a professional. ■ Carbon-monoxidewarning devices may provide additional protection but should not replace the other prevention steps. The Associated Press family were taken to Swedish Edmonds Medical Center in Edmonds, including the 3-year-old, who was the most severely affected and was treated with oxygen therapy. The others were seen for observation only. Ten other people from

the gathering, ranging in age from 8 to 34, were taken for observation to Providence Medical Center in Everett. None was severely affected. Food and food-preparation items found in the apartment made it appear that the charcoal fire was to be used for cooking, McNulty said. He said the apartment had electric heat, which was functioning, and the apartment was warm when he arrived. Other units in the complex were briefly evacuated as firefighters checked for carbon monoxide, but McNulty said carbon monoxide was detected only in the affected apartment and in an attic area above it. In the aftermath of a December 2006 windstorm that caused widespread power outages around the Northwest, more than 300 residents were sickened, and eight died, as families without electricity turned to alternate sources of heat and power.

For Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — The auction of things Fort Worden State Park visitors left behind is a little-publicized annual event in one of the standard pre-war white buildings that dot the campus near Port Townsend, and the attendees tend to trickle into the room in twos and threes. There’s not much noise because it’s a silent auction, unless you count Grace Ehresmah, 2½, who was given to squeals and babbles at opportune moments. A bright blue Find Me Play Tunnel offered the perfect opportunity as Grace tested her capacity for risk, Mom at one end, Dad at the other.

Abandoned objects

Kim and Carl Ehresmah of Belfair snatched up the tunnel — which some other parents had left behind — as soon as they walked in the door Saturday. “We were up here camping, and they gave us a flier,” said Kim, explaining how she knew about the auction. They got the tunnel without a bid. It was one of many items available for just a donation. Grace seemed to think it was perfect. Or maybe the Army, 206 S.

One family has two parents with seven children, and the other is a grandmother, a mother and four children, she said. She said she hoped to fill the wish lists economically so that the rest of the money could be given in gift certificates, allowing the parents freedom to purchase whatever they needed.

Grace had found her treasures, but there were tables of others — clothing, bedding and linens, corners with bicycles and wagons, boxes stuffed with dozens of children’s plastic beach toys. Saturday was the second such auction at the fort. Last year, 30 bidders paid $400 for the items, said Kate Burke, parks manager. The money is put to good use toward programs at the fort, she said. Leftovers from the auction — and there are always plenty of those — will be put to good use, too. They are donated to the city’s local free store, where people in need can find things like warm sweaters, heavy blankets and kitchen items.

Woman ‘matriarch’ of eco-community By Jeff Chew

Peninsula Daily News

SEQUIM — Dr. Eloise Kailin helped fight against a nuclear power plant on the Miller Peninsula east of Sequim — and won. That was in 1973 and led to the formation of the nonprofit Protect the Peninsula’s Future, the North Olympic Peninsula’s longest-standing environmental group. Today, the group tackles issues affecting health, wildlife habitat and quality of life in the region, while Kailin remains active in environmental battles while sharing a 4-acre farm off River Road with her son, Harvey, where the two have built a commercial kitchen to produce apple butter. Bob Lynette, a retired conservation lobbyist and renewable energy consultant who has worked with Kailin on the PPF board for 12 years, sees the 91-yearold retired physician as the original driving force behind Peninsula environmental activism. “My expression for Eloise is she has been the matriarch of the Olympic Peninsula’s environmental community since the 1970s,” said Lynette, who describes Kailin as “egoless” and with a mind capable of “incisiveness and acute thinking.” Steve Koehler, PPF board president since the 1990s, agreed. “She’s probably the most intelligent person I’ve been around,” he said. In 1969, Clallam County Public Utility District entered negotiations to purchase 500 acres of land on the Miller Peninsula for possible development of a nuclear power plant, the PUD said on its website at www.clallampud.net. “Many residents of the Sequim-Blyn area did not appreciate this news. Upon further analysis, the seismic risks of the site made it inappropriate for its intended use,” PUD said. The land now is the Miller Peninsula State Park, a 2,800-acre tract fronting both the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Discovery Bay, the PPF said on its website, www.olympus.net/ community/oec/ppf.htm.

Water reclamation site A 15-year court battle led to the city of Sequim constructing a state-ofthe-art water reclamation facility in 1998 after years of dumping raw sewage into Sequim Bay, leading the state to close area shell-

fish beds. Sewage from the city of Sequim now is treated to the highest possible standards and released into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, away from shellfish. Kailin said the city of Sequim’s court costs to fight the group on the sewage treatment issue reached $600,000, with the environmental group’s costs at about $250,000. “At that point, we were about out of money,” she said, adding that a new City Council under a new city manager form of government was “more amenable” to producing the Class A water through reclamation. “The unsung heroes here are the foundations that pay PPF to bring these lawsuits,” Kailin said. They include the Horizon Foundation; the Harder Foundation; the Simpson Reed Institute, which owns Graysmarsh Farm in Dungeness; and the Northwest Fund for the Environment.

Mayor praises Kailin

ers fought the environmental group, Sequim Mayor Ken Hays last summer praised Kailin and voiced support for the group when dedicating the newly expanded Sequim water reclamation plant that is double the capacity of the plant planned in 1997. “PPF and the city were not always on talking terms. Sometimes, things that start out as battles become community vision,” Hays told more than 50 city, county, state and federal representatives attending the $11 million reclamation plant’s expansion dedication in August. Kailin and the PPF in the mid-1980s challenged the Port of Port Angeles but lost an effort to locate John Wayne Marina outside Travis Spit at the mouth of Sequim Bay. The marina was seen as a potential pollution source, Kailin said. The group instead successfully negotiated an agreement with the port for a public boat launch and park at the marina. The pact also said that creosote pilings in the marina must gradually be converted to nontoxic materials. In 2007, Kailin was the first recipient of the People for Puget Sound Legacy Award given in the spirit of the late Sen. Warren G. Magnuson. She also has been honored by the Washington

Environmental Council and has received the 1987 Clallam County Community Service Award. Kailin’s efforts have not always been warmly received, but now approaching her 92nd birthday in January, she voiced no regrets for her long-standing role as champion of the environment and public health. “If you don’t make waves in any quarters, then you are a failure,” Kailin said.

Other efforts She worked to prevent the state from placing park land on the Miller Peninsula, land Mitsubishi eyed for a golf resort. Another effort blocked an off-road vehicle proposal on the same state forestland. PPF also assisted in sinking efforts to develop petroleum tank farms near Port Angeles. Kailin and the PPF also have spoken out against the city of Port Angeles’ fluoridation of public water, which began in 2006. As a retired medical doctor who worked as an allergist and immunologist, Kailin sees fluoridation as a public health threat, saying that it does not make water safe for drinking and gives the city the power to medicate the public, which has the right to choose its medication.

County Commissioner Steve Tharinger, D-Sequim, who was just elected to his first term as a 24th District state legislator, said he believes Kailin’s biggest victory came with the legal debate that led to Sequim’s water reclamation facility. “Some folks say she hasn’t been the positive force that other people have thought, but look at the water reclamation plant,” Tharinger said. “That was when she was ahead of her time.”

Now Kailin, who must walk gingerly at times with two canes, is no longer seeing patients and has no time for medicine with her second career as an environmental activist. Her desire? “It would be that my life would not be boring,” she said with a smile. “It would be to always keep an enquiring mind — always challenge authority.”

The state high court has been asked to review its ruling in favor of Port Angeles by Our Water — Our Choice and Protect Our Waters. The court has not said if it will review the case. Before the Rayonier mill on the Port Angeles waterfront shut down in 1997, Kailin worked with state Department of Health officials on data concerning the site, which has been a state Department of Ecology cleanup site since 2000. She praised Darlene Schanfald, the Olympic Environmental Council Coalition project coordinator for the Rayonier Hazardous Waste Cleanup Project. “She’s done a terrific job,” Kailin said. Schanfald in turn called Kailin her mentor and a “very close friend.” Schanfald said one widely unknown fact about Kailin was her behind-the-scenes influence in changing the face of city government in Sequim, which brought on a new council that shifted from a strong-mayor system to hiring Sequim’s first city manager in 1998.

on Friday. Belgrade has worked closely with the U.S. on the case of 88-year-old Egner, who was born in Yugoslavia, but emigrated to the U.S. in 1960, gaining American citizenship six years later. Egner lives in a retirement community in the Seattle suburb of Bellevue, fighting U.S. federal government efforts to strip him of his American citizenship, which would pave the way for his extradition. The U.S. Justice Department filed a lawsuit in 2008 to revoke Egner’s citizenship, saying he failed to disclose details from his past on his naturalization application. The complaint alleges that Egner served as a guard and interpreter with the Nazi-controlled Security Police and Security Service in Belgrade, Serbia — then Yugoslavia — from April 1941 to September 1943. It says that Egner did not divulge that information when he applied for citizenship, but instead falsely claimed that he served in the German army as an infantry sergeant, and was granted U.S. citizenship in 1966. Egner has denied any knowledge of the Einsatzgruppe unit that rounded up Jews, political prisoners and other enemies of the Third Reich in the wake of Hitler’s attack on the Soviet Union in the early 1940s. The Justice Department, citing Nazi documents, said that in the fall of 1941, Egner’s unit executed 11,164 people — mostly Serbian Jewish men, suspected communists and Gypsies — and that in early 1942, it murdered 6,280 Serbian Jewish women and children who had been prisoners at Semlin camp.

PA Farmers Market to accept food stamps Grant also funds cooking classes, family outreach By Diane Urbani de la Paz

Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — Call it the local-food divide: Many shoppers, believing prices are much higher at the Port Angeles Farmers Market than at the supermarket, stay away from the farmers market entirely, figuring they can’t afford those organically grown carrots, winter squashes, apples and tomatoes. Another thing keeping local produce off of families’ tables: Many young moms and dads haven’t the cooking-from-scratch skills to make tasty meals at home. So says former City Council member Betsy Wharton, a registered nurse, farmers market board member and the project manager for a $79,408 U.S. Department of Agriculture grant recently made to Clallam County.

One of 77 awarded The grant, one of 77 awarded across the United States, is aimed at giving very low-income families better access to fresh, local food — and introducing them to local farmers at the Port Angeles Farmers Market, which sets up every Saturday, year-round, under The Gateway pavilion at the corner of Front and Lincoln streets. Administered by the North Olympic Peninsula Resource Conservation and Development Council, the

grant funds four facets of the 24-month project. Some $12,500 will go toward setting up an electronic benefit transfer, or EBT, system at the market. This will enable people who receive food stamps, a form of government assistance now delivered via EBT credit cards, to spend them on produce at the market. The grant will pay for installation and management of the electronic system, which includes a phone line, card-swiping machines and food-stamp tokens, for the next two years. After that, Wharton said, the farmers market can opt to absorb the costs.

Cooking classes Another $33,700 will go into new cooking classes at the First Step Family Support Center, 325 E. Sixth St. in Port Angeles. These sessions for parents and their children will include field trips to the farmers market, said Cherie Reeves Sperr, First Step’s development director. Family home support workers from First Step will take clients on tours of the market so they can meet the farmers who grow food in Clallam County yearround. Then, back at First Step, the classes will teach handson preparation of meals with the produce that’s in season. This isn’t about fancy gourmet dinners, Sperr said; the sessions will demonstrate practical, low-cost meals. With the USDA grant, “more than 300 low-income

families will get great exposure to different foods, to cooking local food and to going to the farmers market,” Sperr added. Sperr and Wharton, meantime, see the USDA grant as a communitywide benefit.

than a microwave oven. She knows, however, that such parents may be taken aback by the cost of produce at the farmers’ market, which appears to be a lot more than that of an armload of supermarket frozen dinners.

Use fresh food

Why prices higher

The cooking classes, market tours and EBT system make it easier for lower-income families to bring home fresh, healthful foods from local growers, Wharton said. She emphasized too that produce from farms to the east and west of Port Angeles is allowed to ripen to its flavorful, nutritious peak, in contrast with fruits and vegetables picked green in other states and countries and shipped hundreds or thousands of miles. But those who shop with food stamps, and anyone on a tight grocery budget, may feel forced to instead choose, cheap, packaged foods that are loaded with fat and sugar. The effects of such foods are visible in the younger population, said Kathy Hennessey, a family doctor in Port Angeles. “We are seeing more and more childhood obesity in our clinic. And a lot of those children come from homes where parents simply don’t know how to cook,” she said. Wharton has seen this, too. She is working temporarily as a family home support staffer at First Step, covering another staffer’s maternity leave, and recently visited a single parent who had little more

“I think it is important to explain,” Wharton said, “why the prices can be higher for locally grown food. “It’s not that our small farmers are getting rich and pocketing big profits. They are working long hours and scraping by. It’s often times a labor of love and idealism that motivates our farmers. “Small-scale agriculture usually relies much more on labor rather than on chemicals and machinery,” she added. Local family farmers hire people to plant and harvest; they and their workers live here and participate in the local economy. So choosing to make a soup from locally grown vegetables sets in motion the “local multiplier” effect, Wharton said. The dollars spent on produce from here stay here in Clallam County; they’re put back into farmers’ fields. Another $25,000 in the USDA grant monies will go into coordination and staff time at First Step and at the farmers market over the next two years, Wharton noted, adding that this organizational part, which includes choosing which kind of EBT system to install at the market and conducting trial runs of the cooking classes, will take

Kay Sabowitz, an intern at Johnston Farms just east of Port Angeles, is among the growers selling vegetables, fruit and herbs that will become available to shoppers with food stamps this spring at the Port Angeles Farmers Market. until spring. The remaining $7,500 of the grant will go toward advertising and promotion of the farmers market itself. Some of that will go toward targeted outreach to low-income families, to let them know about the cooking classes and EBT system. Ideally, the grant will nourish families with food stamps as well as the local

farmers Wharton considers a vital part of the local economy. The Port Angeles Farmers Market is growing its share of the grocery dollar. A projected $310,000 will be spent on foods there in 2010, up from $246,000 in 2009, Wharton noted.

PORTLAND, Ore. — A program to reduce the numbers of a salmon-eating pest called the northern pikeminnow paid $1.2 million to Northwest fishermen who assisted the effort this year. The Bonneville Power Administration funds the program, which earned one fisherman more than $81,000 during the sixmonth pikeminnow season. The BPA said just over 173,000 pikeminnow were caught, helping to increase survival rates for young salmon and steelhead. Fishermen get paid $4 to $8 for northern pikeminnow 9 inches and larger caught in the lower Colum-

ley to respond to it by this month. “We welcome these recommendations, some of which offer significant opportunities to reshape how WSF operates,” Hammond said in a news release. Some of the changes would be visible to riders and could be implemented relatively easily. Among them are the panel’s recommendation to implement a systemwide 2-minute loading cut-off before sailings, and possibly to load and unload vehicles before bikes so cars don’t get stuck behind them. Those changes could cut back on late departures, which can force a ferry to go faster to make up time, wasting fuel and sometimes leading to crew shifts being extended and overtime pay.

Less road congestion, state reports SEATTLE — Believe it or not, the Department of Transportation said Washingtonians are spending less time stuck in traffic. In the department’s latest annual congestion

our bargaining units. “We’re ready to move forward with the hard work ahead of us.” The PVA panel found that the ferries system suffers from excessive oversight, and that its governance system should be reviewed. It has too many bosses, among them the governor, Legislature, Department of Transportation and state Transportation Commission. Most ferry systems report to a board of directors or government entity that has the freedom to act quickly on crucial business decisions. Gregoire has asked the PVA to study governance in more detail, looking at all models operating in North America and showing their advantages and disadvantages for WSF. A report is due on Dec. 1.

Death and Memorial Notice Miriam ‘Mimi’ Washburn Curtis October 10, 1913 November 24, 2010 Mimi was born in Seattle on October 10, 1913, and passed away November 24, 2010. She lived a full life and had a chance to say goodbye to her family before passing. We wish to thank the wonderful staff at Beachwood Manor, Seattle, for their tender care. Mimi spent her early childhood in Seattle but later moved to Tacoma, where she graduated from Stadium High School and enrolled at the University of Puget Sound. She subsequently transferred to the University of Washington, where she was an Alpha Phi and majored in clothing and design. Mimi married Wilbur W. Washburn on September 5, 1934, shortly after he graduated from the UW. They settled at Neah Bay, where his father owned the general store which had been established as a trading post by his grandfather in 1902. Their plan was to stay

Remembering a Lifetime downloading at www.peninsuladaily news.com under “Obituary Forms.”

Mrs. Curtis there for three years but the three years became 30. Her family was the center of her life. Membership in the Neah Bay Presbyterian Church introduced her to the Christian life, and she participated fully, teaching Sunday school, singing in the choir and serving as an Elder. As her children grew, Mimi found time to become more engaged in the family business and assumed management of the dry goods department, excelling in buying and merchandising. She and Wilbur built a larger store in 1955, to

better serve the community and summer tourist trade. That store was destroyed by fire in 1962, and rebuilt in 1963. Unfortunately, Wilbur died shortly thereafter, leaving Mimi to manage the new store until it was sold in 1965. After selling the business, Mimi moved to Port Angeles, where she was active in various community affairs including the Presbyterian Church and PEO. She received her real estate license, and in 1977, was president of the Port Angeles Board of Realtors. She retired in 1979. Mimi met George R. Curtis at a Stadium High School reunion and they were married in August 1987 at University Place. George had been associated with the University Place School District for 45 years and retired as district superintendent. Mimi and George both loved flowers and spent much time designing and enjoying their beautiful flower garden. Mimi’s years in Tacoma were enriched by the members of the University

Place Presbyterian Church, Bible Study Fellowship, PEO, Orthopedic Guild, the Birthday Bunch and the Interlaaken Garden Club, where she was president for two years. Mimi is survived by son, Tim Washburn, and wife, Nancy; granddaughter, Melissa, and husband, John Aydelott; greatgrandchildren Jack, Caroline, Elise and Josephine; grandson, Alex Washburn, and wife, Erika; greatgrandchildren Sonja and Blake; daughter, Barbara, and husband, Marvin Eby; granddaughter, Jennifer Eby, and partner, Curtis Froland; great-grandson, Nicholas Fothergill; granddaughter, Betsy Eby, and husband, Bo Bartlett; granddaughter, Allison Eby, and husband, Nathan Butz; great-grandsons, Desmond and Leo; and sisters-in-law Neah Whitesides and Gwen Mallory of California.

‘Action Pile’ taught me inaction MY FIRST JOB after college was as assistant to the editor of an alternative newsweekly, much like the Village Voice. This was in the pre-InterMark net glory days when prostiBazer tutes bought countless classified ads because, of course, of their firm belief that only an alternative press could hold our government and the mainstream press accountable. My job was essentially secretarial, but every so often they’d throw me a bone and let me cover something no one else wanted to. Perhaps you’ve read my review of “Operation Dumbo Drop”? Hey, every great newsman has

to begin somewhere, and so do people like me. Anyhow, it was there that my boss, the editor-in-chief, whose work (and sometimes personal) life I was charged with keeping organized, introduced me to the greatest invention known to man — at least prior to the Shark Portable Steam Pocket. He called it The Action Pile. The Action Pile was a stack of papers on my desk where I would put the daily deluge of nonurgent letters, requests, invitations, etc., sent my editor’s way. Then every several months, after gentle prodding by me and after my boss had had a few martinis over lunch, we would attack The Action Pile. We would answer one or two of the most important letters and return a few others to The Action Pile for future consideration. But by the time we looked at the Pile, the bulk of the contents were way past their expiration date — half-baked pitches for

Speaking Out

stories on an election that had since passed, invitations to an opening reception at a restaurant that had since closed, requests for internships from students who had since graduated and started families. Those letters we would throw out. At first, The Action Pile drove me, new and innocent to the working world and official adulthood, crazy. HOW COULD WE BEHAVE SO RECKLESSLY? WHAT IF A PROSTITUTE HAD ACCIDENTALLY SENT US HER PAYMENT FOR HER AD? But over time, I noticed a funny thing happened. Nothing. Nobody ever got into trouble. No lives were ruined. Nobody even called to complain. (Well, one guy kept calling, but I just wrote his messages on those pink While You Were Out

slips and added them to the Pile.) And most important, a solid newspaper came out each week, even when I was entrusted with the review of the movie “Dunston Checks In.” (“The bad news for the talented Dunston,” the 22-year-old me wrote, “is that from now on, he’ll be typecast as an orangutan.”) Today, the recent college grad handling The Action Pile at my old job probably does so online — no longer having to contend with the tragicomic Leaning Tower of Pisa of papers that nearly blocked my view of the rest of the newsroom. But I still like to picture in my mind The Action Pile that I knew, especially when the weight of life’s to-do list threatens to send me into a panic. Then I say a silent thank-you to my old boss, turn on the TV or pick up a book and put off my correspondence for another day,

preferably one before a Collection Agency makes contact. In today’s world — where everyone (yes, right, including me) is clamoring for everyone else’s attention — The Action Pile deserves a place not just in cluttered newsrooms but on every desk in America. And so with the holidays upon us, with the onslaught of solicitations, invitations and other miscellany set to come your way, I am here to ask: Isn’t it time you started one? ________ Mark Bazer is a humorist who hosts “The Interview Show,” a Chicago-based talk show available at www.huffingtonpost.com.

“I’m not terribly upset. I think this screening is necessary for our security, and I believe it is well worth a little personal inconvenience to be safe.”

“I’m not upset. I think they should do it. Safety first. They can do whatever it takes for safety, especially in this day and age.”

“I’d rather do the full body scan than pat-downs. I just don’t want people’s hands on me. It’s sad to have to do this. Terrorists are probably laughing at what they’ve done to us.”

“Spend the extra time and money on something else. Going through a metal detector is enough. Everyone’s being treated like a criminal because of some bad apples out there.”

“As long as I’m safe, they need to take the extra precautions. I’m not afraid of a full body scan. In fact, I think it would be kind of cool. I never even flew until I was 25.”

“I’m very upset. We’ve made a decision to not fly much. It’s such a hassle and takes a lot of time. We bought a motor home to avoid airports.”

“Doesn’t upset me. The issue is that there is such a probable threat that we have to resort to more stringent measures. It’s a sad thing, but it’s better than doing less.”

This is a complicated matter, said Clallam County Engineer Ross Tyler, and for the county the correct name has to do only with the bridge. Here’s Tyler’s explanation: “The county has the bridge name recorded as ‘McDonald Creek bridge.’ “We have, over the years, received requests to change the name to McDonnell Creek Bridge from those who believe that is the correct name. “However, we have not done so, and I believe that either name could be used. “Between 1990 and 1995, the county road department was approached by noted county historian Harriet Fish, who indicated that the correct name for what was then named the McDonnell Creek Bridge should in fact actually be named the McDonald Creek Bridge, as the creek’s correct name was McDonald Creek. “The county changed bridge name in its records to reflect that correction, and it is currently identified as such. “Some years ago, a reporter on the Sequim Gazette did much research on the history of the McDonald and the McDonnell names and shared with

Our readers’ letters, faxes me that both families homesteaded on the creek. “One was at the mouth, and the other was in the area between the Old Olympic Highway and what is now U.S. Highway 101. “The information contained in the obituary of Joseph McDonnell indicates that he homesteaded at the mouth of the creek. “I believe the indications were that the McDonalds were the first to homestead, hence ‘McDonald Creek.’ “It is not impossible, but is somewhat cumbersome, to change the name of a county bridge due to the fact that this name (McDonald Creek Bridge) has been used as the bridge’s identifying name for many years and is identified as such within the Federal Highway Administration data base.” EDITOR’S ADDITION: The Washington State Board on Geographic Names was charged with establishing the official names of geographic features (lakes, mountains, streams, places, towns) in the state. State residents could nominate names of unnamed places, or name changes, and the board, part of the Department of Natural Resources, would

Medicare referral

Fishing woes

Is this a look at the future? I am a Medicare patient with a need to see a specialist. I got a referral from my physician. On the subsequent telephone interview, I was asked for my insurance information. I was told that the next available Medicare appointment was in March. Now, this is not an emergency, and I can wait until March. But that is beside the point I wish to make. I was not asked why I needed to see the doctor until after the appointment was set. Aren’t I glad this can wait? We are now seeing rationing of care. Not by the federal government, but by medical care providers who cannot afford to see Medicare patients because of totally unrealistic reimbursement

I can’t imagine doing away with the Snider Creek broodstock program. We need every fish in the river we can get. They are talking about closing some of our hatcheries when we should be building new ones. The state gets all this government money for our fish, and we waste it restoring small streams that don’t even have fish in them. There is nothing wrong with hatchery fish. I have an article from In-Fisherman magazine that says in the 1999 Lake Ontario Derby, it took a 40-pound king to take 10th place. A 42½-pounder took first. These were not wild fish.

Peninsula Daily News Rants & Raves Compiled By Lee Zurcher

Rave of the Week A RAVE TO the ladies who feed the beautiful cats on Ediz Hook out by the Coast Guard station (Port Angeles). These cats need all the help they can get in this freezing weather.

. . . and other Raves A RAVE TO the nice couple in the grey pickup truck who stopped and offered me a hot chocolate Monday afternoon in the snowstorm. It was very much appreciated. THANKS TO ALL the people who stopped who asked if I needed help on Wednesday when my car ended up in a ditch on Towne Road in Sequim. MEGA CHEERS FOR the public utility district work crews. In truly miserable weather, they’re out in the worst of it, getting power restored ASAP. THANK YOU VERY much to Pete and Rapid Rover for the extra special service they gave us Monday night getting us home safely through the ice and snow, taking the time to drive all the way out to SeaTac and getting us home at 2:30 a.m. Great job, Rapid Rover and Pete. HUGE RAVE TO Brothers Plumbing in Sequim and Port Angeles, to Ray who came out Friday night and Saturday morning in the snow and rain when our well failed. Super rave to Jamie and Doug, who worked on Monday in the freezing snow repairing our well. Wonderful service in this terrible weather. A HUGE RAVE to Clallam Transit Dial-A-Ride for safely taking me to deliver prescriptions to my 92-year-old mother during this bad winter weather. What a great service.

TO DAVE WITH Evergreen Towing: At 6:30 p.m., in the freezing cold of a one-lane mountain road, when no one else would help, he came and pulled my truck and trailer out of a terrible predicament. It took guts and smarts to figure out how to get my rig back on the road without damaging anything. BIG, BIG RAVE to the person who turned in my purse I’d left in a basket at Safeway on Lincoln Street in Port Angeles. It wasn’t opened and was left at the service desk. I asked who turned it in, but they said it was a customer. I’m a senior citizen. Thank you so much. May God bless you. THE OLYMPIC PENINSULA Chapter of the American Red Cross has a 24/7 emergency phone system that works [360457-7933]. You must follow instructions given on the recording concerning after-hours emergencies. The number must be called to give assistance to your emergency. They are ready to be of help. THANK YOU TO the early J.C. Penney (Sequim) shopper who bought a coffee for the employee at store. It made my day. Thank you, and happy holidays. I’D LIKE TO rave about the nice gentleman who helped me get my boat loaded. I was having problems at Ediz Hook (Port Angeles), and he helped very much getting my boat loaded on the trailer. A BIG RAVE for Port Angeles’ most steam-punk-inspired Christmas window: Port Book & News’ World’s Fair amusement park. A LARGE RAVE to Jan Wilson of Senior Information and Assistance in Sequim also the Port Angeles Senior Center and the Port Angeles police for much

needed information, and thank you very much. A TREMENDOUS RAVE to the great folks who sponsored last Saturday’s fundraising dinner at Harbinger Winery (Port Angeles) to benefit our local Humane Society. The food, location and company were superb — what a fun way to provide help to this worthy local cause. Thank you! ONCE AGAIN, I am blown away by the wealth of talent found on the North Olympic Peninsula. “Meet me in St. Louis” was one of the best plays the Port Angeles Community Players has presented. Every cast member seemed perfect for the part they played. The story was funny, even though it was placed at the turn of the last century. Editor’s Note: The play continues through Dec. 5. Phone 360-452-6651 for information on tickets and show times. HUGE RAVE FOR the Clallam County commissioners office and staff of the Auditor’s Office. My mother, bless her flamboyant self, arrived to receive an award for being the trooper she is and participating in the Civic Photo and Scavenger Hunt. Huge kudos and raves for a mother having the time of her life in Port Angeles. A LOT OF residents of Park View Villa (Port Angeles) would like to thank Jim’s Pharmacy for the 17 years of wonderful service that they gave in the small sundries shop that they had at Park View Villa. THIS IS A RAVE to the Salvation Army for a great turkey feast and to all who helped put it on.

Rant of the Week THE INABILITY OF state, county and city crews to keep state highways and main arterial

streets cleared and accessible during the one-day snowstorm is unbelievable. County crews called it a day at 5:30 p.m. Monday. The main streets weren’t cleared then, and they weren’t at mid-day Tuesday. I also saw drivers with plows driving around without using them.

. . . and other Rants TO MY NEIGHBOR in Sequim: Why don’t you take the energy you spend hating me and do something constructive? Maybe do some charity work. All that hate is going to eat you up and make you ugly inside. Happy holidays. RANT TO LAST week’s gasstealing Santa in Rants & Raves. Hang your head in shame, Bad Santa. You’ll get no sympathy here. And what do you see when you look in the mirror? DEAR BAD SANTA: Don’t bother with that bicycle I wanted for Christmas. Sounds like you will be needing it to ride to work. THIS IS A rant for all the ding-dongs who think they look pretty driving with their fog lights on after dark. They are blinding! There should be a law against that. Oh, wait, I think there is. A RANT TO homeowners who do not maintain the growth of shrubbery in their yards, allowing it to both impede on others’ property and make the neighborhood look unkept. Please maintain your property-line shrubbery! AN INSENSITIVE WOMAN at the Sequim grocery proclaimed, “Really going all out tonight, huh?” after seeing me with non-alcoholic beverages during check-out. This ignoramus doesn’t know if a health issue or personal

preference is the reason I’m buying it instead of alcohol. Maybe she imbibed before she opened her mouth. A BIG RANT to drivers who can’t take the time to clear their vehicle windows of snow. A tiny clear patch is dangerous to the driver and others. YOU, WHO PILFERED my scarf, were witnessed and caught on camera. You entered my work-site and lifted my wife’s homespun work. My work-site suppressed material evidence, awarding you the scarf. Logic or merits behind the stunt aside, return it by any discreet channel open to you. RANT TO THE person who stole my little, brown hand-grenade radio from the antique store (Port Angeles). Please return it. Wasn’t much, but need the money for Christmas. You know, Space 66. A HUGE RANT to the neighbor on Runamuck Lane, Port Angeles, who did not stop to inquire if my daughter-in-law was all right during the Monday snowstorm when her car was stuck, which she was not. Shame on you — neighbor??? ________ (CLIP AND SAVE) To participate, call our Rants & Raves hotline at 360-417-3506 (works 24 hours a day), e-mail us at letters@peninsuladailynews.com or drop us a postcard, 305 W.

The highest bid of $5,700 went to a tree called “Here’s to Mom.” Designed by Sherry Phillips, the tree included decorations used by her mother, Eleanore Phillips. Sherry Phillips said her mother, who died in January at the age of 89, loved Christmas. “We just felt as a family this would be a nice tribute to her and be something that she would be pleased to know that we had done for others to enjoy,” she said. The top bidder of each tree gets prizes, called premiums. The premium for Sherry Phillips’ tree is a dinner with Brown and Sara Maloney of Sequim and a tour of their car collection. A tree called “A Dickens Christmas” won the Designer’s Choice Award.

Boise State coach Chris Petersen looks at the scorebaord in the second half of Friday night’s game at Nevada. The Wolfpack won in one of the biggest upsets of the year.

BCS debate just got easier RENO, Nev. — The payoff for Nevada may come later, perhaps in the form of a few top recruits — or some grudging recognition from those watching nationally that the Wolf Pack belong in the Top 25 after all. Beating No. 3 Tim Boise State in a Dahlberg game the 19thranked Wolf Pack was never supposed to win was the biggest thing to happen in this gambling city in quite some time. It may have been the biggest sports story here since Jack Johnson beat up on Jim Jeffries 100 years ago in a heavyweight title fight. It certainly was a boost for a longtime coach whose only previous claim to fame was that he invented the increasingly popular pistol offense. “It is the greatest victory this university has ever had, I can tell you that,” coach Chris Ault said. “The way it happened is just an unbelievable feeling.” Play in the puny Western Athletic Conference, though, and the benefits can be limited. In Nevada’s case, that means the Wolf Pack’s only tangible rewards may be an improved rating and a trip to New Mexico for a bowl game that exists only to fill a few hours of television time for people taking a break from Christmas shopping. It could be worse. At least Nevada fans get to celebrate a job well done. Boise State’s faithful can only wonder what might have been as any hopes of a national title game or even a BCS bowl bid evaporated, when a kicker who had only missed three times all year whiffed on two short field goals. Final score in overtime: Nevada 34, Boise State 31. Suddenly, the annual BCS debate got a lot easier. Had things gone right for the Broncos on what will always be known in Idaho as Black Friday, they might have been making travel plans for Jan. 10 in Arizona or perhaps the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day. Instead, their 24-game winning streak is over, their reputation has taken a hit, and the consolation bowl they’re headed for has none of the glamor of the ones the big schools play in. And coach Chris Petersen still isn’t acknowledging what might have been. “We still have another game next week,” said Petersen, whose 10-1 Broncos will face Utah State. “We said all along, at the end of the season we will see where we are and go from there.” For the better part of three quarters Friday night it looked like Boise State would go places that small schools aren’t supposed to go in the BCS system.

Washington players celebrate their win over California in Berkeley that keeps their bowl hopes alive on Saturday. Next up for the Huskies is the Apple Cup next weekend.

Bowl hopes still alive Locker, Dawgs on track for a postseason berth By Janie McCauley The Associated Press

BERKELEY, Calif. — Quarterback Jake Locker came back to Washington for one last hurrah and the chance to lead a return to the postseason. After willing the Huskies to a victory again, he’s one win away. Chris Polk scored on a 1-yard run as time expired, and Washington denied California bowl eligibility while keeping its own

postseason hopes alive with a thrilling 16-13 victory Saturday. Locker, who threw an earlier 80-yard touchdown pass, was stopped on consecutive sneak attempts on second and third down from the 1 before Polk came through for the Huskies. The winning touchdown set up a celebratory pileup behind the end zone, and the players danced near their contingent of fans well after the game ended. Washington (5-6, 4-4 Pac-10)

still needs a victory in next weekend’s Apple Cup rivalry game at Washington State to reach its first bowl since 2002. “It’s the playoffs for us now,” Locker said. If we lose, we’re out. “That’s the urgency we played with in the second half. To get this win keeps our season alive and allows us to go into Pullman next weekend and compete for something we haven’t been able to do in a long time. “It’s right where we want to be as a football team.” Cal (5-7, 3-6), playing in a downpour for much of the final game at Memorial Stadium before the 87-year-old venue undergoes a $321 million reno-

vation, lost its third straight and couldn’t rebound from an embarrassing rout by rival Stanford in last week’s Big Game.

Postseason run over The Golden Bears’ postseason streak is over after a sevenyear run. Locker — still playing with a broken rib — went 17-for-27 for 237 yards but was sacked three times. He set up the winning score with a 46-yard completion to a diving Jermaine Kearse. “It’s disappointing we didn’t do more,” Cal defensive lineman Cameron Jordan said. Turn

Neah Bay falls in semis Nemesis Lummi rips Red Devils 61-14 in Dome By Matt Schubert

Peninsula Daily News

TACOMA — The Lummi Blackhawk big-play machine struck again Saturday. The second-ranked Blackhawks eliminated Neah Bay in the Class 1B state football semifinals for the second straight year with a 61-14 mercy-rule victory at the Tacoma Dome. Lummi (12-1) rolled for 520 yards and eight touchdowns on offense and came up big when it mattered on the other side of the ball, denying Neah Bay (103) its first title-game appearance in 11 years. “They did whatever they wanted,” Neah Bay head coach Tony McCaulley said. “I expect them to win a state championship. They are a really good football team. “We’ve got to go back to the drawing board, get in the weight room and do it all again.” Senior running back Eddy Williams gashed the Red Devils

State Football for 257 yards of offense and three touchdowns. Quarterback Jeremy Roberts threw for 133 yards and two scores. And the Blackhawks ripped off four scoring plays of 60 yards or more to overwhelm a young Red Devils squad featuring just two seniors. “We’ve got a number of guys who can go the distance on any play,” Lummi coach Jim Sandusky said. “Other teams, I don’t know how they would scout [us]. “They’ve got to key on everybody.” In a reversal of last year’s pregame story line, the Red Devils came into Saturday night’s having already lost twice to the Blackhawks this season.

Lummi gets big win A year ago it was Lummi that entered the semifinals with two losses against its league rivals, only to beat them 64-36 on the big stage. Unfortunately for the Red Devils, there would be no flip-

ping of the script this time around. Instead, Neah Bay was handed its third 1B semifinal loss since 2005. “This was worse than last year, I can tell you that,” said red-eyed junior Titus Pascua, who scored both of the Red Devils’ touchdowns. “I wanted it so bad this year. “We made it the same distance as last year and we couldn’t advance against the same team. We worked hard . . . but it didn’t happen.” The game was a far cry from when the two teams met three weeks ago in Neah Bay. The Red Devils stayed within striking distance of the Blackhawks the entire contest that night before eventually falling 41-30. On Saturday, however, the Blackhawks scored five touchdowns on 15 offensive plays for a 35-6 halftime lead. Lummi racked up 273 yards (172 on the ground) in five separate scoring drives during that time, benefitting from a short field on two possessions after stopping Neah Bay on fourth down twice in Red Devil territory.

LONGVIEW — The Peninsula College men’s basketball team opened the 2010-2011 season with two close losses at the Red Devil Classic on Friday and Saturday. The losses knocked the Pirates out of the double-elimination tournament. In the first game, the Pirates took host Lower Columbia down to the wire on Friday night in their non-conference opener only to come up on the short end of the 69-66 score. “Our team battled from start to finish,” Peninsula coach Lance Von Vogt said. “We just had a very difficult time with making shots.” Peninsula’s Thad Vinson led the team with 17 points as he shot 5-for-10 from the field and 3-for-4 behind the 3-point line. Teammate Djuan Smith sank 12 points with 5-for-10 shooting while Sammeon Waller had 10 points and three steals against the Red Devils, who finished last season as the 2010 NWAACC Tournament runners-up. Lower Columbia played tough defense as a team and had three players who scored double-digit points against the Pirates. Peninsula had the lead with a couple of minutes left to play. But a few missed lay-ups followed by a couple of Red Devil free throws turned the tide. The Pirates attempted to beat the buzzer but missed the go-ahead 3-point shot by Tre Musgrow as Lower Columbia survived the upset try. “Overall, I was happy with the way our guys competed,” Von Vogt said. “But we need to figure out how to execute down the stretch to win the close ones rather than lose them.” Turn

Stanford makes case for BCS Oregon keeps national title tilt hopes alive The Associated Press

STANFORD, Calif. — Andrew Luck threw four touchdown passes to set a single-season school record and No. 7 Stanford stated its case for a berth in the Bowl Championship Series by beating Oregon State 38-0 Saturday night. Stepfan Taylor ran for 115 yards and a touchdown and Doug Baldwin caught two TD passes for the Cardinal (11-1, 8-1 Pac-10), who set a school record for wins with an emphatic close to the regular season. Now Stanford needs to wait a week to learn its bowl fate, hoping for an at-large berth in the BCS with No. 1 Oregon having already wrapped up the Pac-10’s automatic berth.

Dawgs: Still alive for bowl bid

Dahlberg: BCS debate is easier

Pac-10 the season. Luck picked up where he left off in the Big Game last week when he led the Cardinal to scores on all eight drives he played against California. Luck completed all six passes on the opening drive, capped by a 21-yard scoring strike to Zach Ertz.

Friday Pac-10 No. 1 Ducks 48, No. 20 Wildcats 29 EUGENE, Ore. — Darron Thomas passed for three touchdowns and ran for another and top-ranked Oregon earned at least a share of a second consecutive Pac-10 title with a 48-29 victory over No. 20 Arizona on Friday night. LaMichael James shrugged off talk of an injury to run for 126 yards and two scores for the Ducks (11-0, 8-0), who trailed 19-14 at halftime but surged in the second half to stay on course for a trip to the BCS national title game. The Ducks can lock up an outright conference title and a spot in the national championship game in Glendale, Ariz., next week with a victory at Oregon State. It was the third straight loss for Arizona (7-4, 4-4), which ultimately couldn’t keep up with the Ducks’ speedy spread-option. With temperatures in the mid-40s and periodic rain showers, there were concerns that the Wildcats would have trouble with their passing game, which had been averaging about 300 yards a game. But Nick Foles passed for a career-high 448 yards and three touchdowns, including an 85-yard score to Juron Criner. Thomas completed 14-of24 passes for 148 yards and an interception. Oregon finished with 537 yards total offense, but Arizona kept up with 506 yards.

Playing from behind Oregon was playing catch-up the entire first half and trailed for just the second time this season at the break. But the Ducks bounced back early in the second half with Josh Huff’s 85-yard scoring run, the longest play from scrimmage for the Ducks this season. While the conversion failed, Oregon had a 20-19 lead. Arizona hurt itself on Oregon’s next series, when they were called offside on Rob Beard’s missed 42-yard field goal attempt. That gave the Ducks a first down and Thomas followed with a 20-yard touchdown run to make it 27-19. The Wildcats cut the lead on Alex Zendejas’ 41-yard field goal, but James ran for a pair of scores, one for 13 yards and another for a yard, to make it 48-22. James has 19 rushing touchdowns this season, surpassing LeGarrette Blount’s score record 17 set in 2008. James came into the game as the nation’s rushing leader at 158 yards per game, but there were concerns about his health. After Oregon’s last game, a 15-13 win over California, the Heisman Trophy hopeful was on crutches with a leg injury. He was able to rest the injury over a bye week and practiced on a limited basis.

Denver Broncos fined for taping of 49ers’ practice The Associated Press

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The NFL fined the Denver Broncos and coach Josh McDaniels $50,000 each because the team’s video operations director filmed a San Francisco 49ers practice in London last month, breaking league rules. The NFL investigation determined Steve Scarnecchia took a six-minute video of the walkthrough and presented it that day to McDaniels.

The coach declined to view it. Still, the NFL fined both the coach and team because the matter was not promptly reported, as required by the league. Scarnecchia was also involved in the NFL’s last videotaping scandal, dubbed Spygate. After the Patriots were caught videotaping New York Jets coaches sending in signals during a 2007 game, the league’s investigation determined New

England had violated rules over several seasons. Scarnecchia, who had left the Patriots by the time they were caught, was found to have taken part in the videotaping when he worked for the team in the early 2000s. Scarnecchia was notified by Commissioner Roger Goodell that, as a repeat violator of league rules regarding the integrity of the game, he faced a hearing to determine if he would

be banned from the NFL. “We certainly did not view or do anything with the footage, and he was made aware that it was something we didn’t condone in our organization,” McDaniels said Saturday. “I failed to follow through and report it to the proper individuals in our organization and with the league.” Asked why he failed to report the incident immediately, McDaniels said: “I made a mistake. I made a

mistake and I should have done that right away. “We felt we handled it the right way by not doing anything with that but I did not follow through with it.” McDaniels also worked for New England, but NFL Executive Vice President Jeff Pash said there was no evidence he was involved with the videotaping there. The Broncos didn’t report this latest incident to the NFL for nearly two weeks, and Scarnecchia remained

employed by the team until mid-November. Two hours before the league announced the results of its investigation Saturday, the team said Scarnecchia was on a leave of absence. Later, it said he’d been fired. McDaniels, who worked in New England from 200109, hired Scarnecchia in Denver shortly after he became the Broncos’ coach 22 months ago.

Pirates: Open with 2 losses

State: Football

Continued from B1 In the second game, the Pirates lost a close 74-69 game to Southwestern Oregon Community College of Coos Bay, Ore., at Myklebust Gymnasium. “They jumped out to a quick lead,” Von Vogt said about the Lakers. “And just extended it throughout the first half.” Smith led the Pirates with 18 points, seven rebounds, four steals and three assists while Musgrow contributed 12 points coming off of the bench. The Lakers took off to an 18-point lead with Peninsula shooting only 26 percent in the first half. But the Pirates managed to cut the lead down to 13 points, trailing 39-26 at the half. The Pirates scored after they stole the first possession of the second half to cut the lead down to 11, followed by a 10-0 run by the Lakers with 17:30 left to play. Peninsula answered back with a 28-5 run of its own along with some big defensive pllays to take the lead with eight minutes to go. The remainder of the game consisted of six ties and nine lead changes but ended with a key 3-point shot by Southwestern Oregon’s Kramer Ramberg to give the Lakers a 69-67 lead. “We weren’t ready to play, which showed in the first 25 minutes of the game,” Von Vogt said. “But our guys showed a lot of heart by battling back.” The Pirates will next host Vancouver Island University Peninsula College’s Thad Vinson drives past Brandon Hoff, Keith next Saturday starting at Moilanen and Kole McClarron of Lower Columbia for a hoop in the second half of Friday’s game at the Red Devil Classic. 7 p.m.

WEATHER, DEAR ABBY, THINGS TO DO In this section

Tim Hockett/for Peninsula Daily News

Charlie and Marti Hetrick were knocked down by Charlie’s six heart attacks and a stroke before the Peninsula Home Fund gave them important help.

Home Fund leads to warm home 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 the first in a series of articles on how the fund operates and who benefits from our readers’ generosity. The next article will appear Wednesday. By Tim Hockett

For Peninsula Daily News

QUILCENE — For all the struggles he’s gone through in the last few years, Charlie Hetrick is about as good-natured a person as you’ll find. He kids and jokes as he tells his story of both success and struggle. He begins with a chuckle and reminds us, “I’ve been rich, and I’ve been poor — rich is better!” He’s not overstating either situation. Originally educated as a fisheries biologist, he eventually followed a career in construction. He found himself in high demand and was soon building homes for the rich and famous.

In high demand “From basketball players to stars and other public figures, I had accounts for home construction that were both lucrative and glamorous,” he recalls. “I was a contractor for 30 years, and I loved it. “In those days when I was healthy, I also made sure I gave back to the community. “I was a scoutmaster for six years. I donated my time and expertise to Habitat for Humanity and helped on a huge project in Seattle.” He became a member of the Port Townsend Elks Lodge and helped with various projects, including the annual Easter Egg hunt. “When I had money, I tried to help others,” says Charlie. “Now I know I have to just slow down and do what I can to earn a few dollars.” A former black-powder rifle champion, Charlie gives shooting lessons, and he and his wife, Marti, are working on a book. “I have applied for disability too, but it takes a long time to get it.” It was six heart attacks and a stroke that knocked Charlie down

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. To donate, write a check to “Peninsula Home Fund” and attach it to the coupon that accompanies this story. Mail both items to Peninsula Home Fund, Peninsula Daily News, P.O. Box 1330, Port Angeles, WA 98362. Or drop them at the newspaper’s offices in a few notches. His health completely gave out. His wife attempted to find employment, but soon realized that Charlie’s need for care was too much to handle while trying to carry a job. All it took was an auto accident, and they just about went under. “Our first step was to just completely minimize our expenses,” he says. “I had no insurance or other coverage. “We used to live on the same property as my mother, and I paid all the rents — I could afford to be generous. He chuckles again. “Now I needed to find something really inexpensive, so we got this low-cost mobile home.” He and Marti settled into an older mobile home on rural property near Quilcene and began to live on just a few hundred dollars a month. As with many families who are struggling in this economy, Charlie and Marti began to make use of local resources to get by. They became customers of the OlyCAP Thrift Shoppe in Port Hadlock.

It also screens the applicants for the Peninsula Daily News’ “hand up, not a handout” Peninsula Home Fund and distributes the funds. “While shopping at the OlyCAP Thrift Shoppe, we read about other services that we might qualify for and made an appointment at the Port Townsend office of OlyCAP to see about getting some help on our PUD utility bill. “The people at OlyCAP treated us well and not only helped us with our power bill but urged us to come to their energy conservation workshop. “That was last April. We found that workshop interesting and started to switch out all of the light bulbs to the energy-efficient ones and take some conservation measures.” Charlie makes a point of saying that all of the bulbs in the house are now energy-saving CFLs (compact fluorescent light bulbs). “But the story doesn’t stop there,” he continues. “We also found out that we likely qualified for home weatherization. “We were delighted because this place was

drafty and hard to heat in the winter.” By means of federal stimulus dollars, Charlie was told, OlyCAP was able to expand its home weatherization program so that low-income families could permanently reduce their home-heating costs. Within weeks, a crew from OlyCAP was on site at their home and fully insulated and sealed

their home. It was completed in June. “See how cozy and warm our place is?” says Charlie. “We can really feel the difference and the power bill is much cheaper. “The crew was wonderful. After all those years as a contractor, I have a trained eye and I can tell you these guys did

fine work and used excellent materials. “They were punctual, efficient and really knew what they were doing. They did an excellent job.”

Decorating yule trees is for the birds AS ONE MORE Thanksgiving becomes history, another page is turned on traditional holiday events and preparations. Now, it’s time to think about Christmas trees, lights, shopping and other activities that make this time of the year special. Last year, a reader shared one of her holiday traditions — a Christmas tree for the birds. We put out a tree for the birds every year but not before or during Christmas. They get our tree after it has been taken down. Propped in a bucket and secured with rocks, it will last until next spring. A photograph of a reader’s Christmas tree decorated for the birds arrived with her letter, and it was so attractive that our offering seemed downright tacky. It’s a good thing our birds couldn’t compare the two trees. Things will be different this year. An ornamental bird tree is part of our Christmas decorations, and it’s an imitation one. It holds nothing but bird ornaments and sits in the same place year after year.

If they are wrapped around the tree like in all the pictures, the end result could be a big mess. The last thing I need is a couple of frustrated jays trying to pull off an entire string. I don’t have the patience to string red berries, but holly berries will go on our tree. Small pieces of branches containing berries will be tucked among the Christmas tree branches. Birds will eat the holly

berries we use in outside decorations. One year, I couldn’t imagine who was ringing the bells hanging in a wreath on our front door. Then, I spotted a robin standing on the porch. It would fly at the door and the wreath, grab a berry and then do it all over again. How you decorate your tree for the birds is limited only by your imagination. Retail stores stocked with bird supplies have

several items that would make good decorations. The seed bells are only the beginning. Once you get started, more and more ideas come to mind. If you decorate a tree for the birds, I would enjoy hearing some of your favorite ones.

Despite icy weather, snow an insulator WELL, I’LL BE. I woke up at the beginning of last week and thought I arose in a magical dream — transported by wind, snow, ice and cold to the far reaches of northern Wisconsin — land of our family’s cottage, home of Paul Bunyan, the snowy owl, the inventor of the snowmobile and a football team that calls its home field the “frozen tundra.” But just then, my eyes focused on the numerous shades of gray that the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the sky were drenched in, and the headlines of the Peninsula Daily News were calling for temperatures in the double digits and above zero, so I knew I was indeed awake at home in gorgeous Port Angeles on the famously mild Olympic Peninsula.

A growing concern

by crushing them down — in the case of perennials — or snapping off branches on large trees or twigs on precious woody ornamentals. So, to begin, as the snow and ice abate, go out and inspect your plants. Look carefully for any damage, and prune up the damaged areas. Remember, Mother Nature is a horrible pruner. She always cuts away at the wrong spot using very poor cuts — all ragged and jagged, full of long splinters and cracks going far down the stem, branch or cane. Make sure to make clean cuts below all damaged areas. Look for bark stripped away in long, thin strands, usually on the hard-to-see underside. Many times, thinning away the entire section is the wisest choice. Realize that a heading cut, which we discussed along with

thinning cuts just a few weeks ago, creates all new and multiple branches at that spot, so carefully consider your options. Next, even if snow damages plants, knocking snow off plants can damage them even more. If you do wish to whisk snow away, only do it in temperatures 24-28 degrees or above and never when there is ice on the plant — cold temperatures and ice make the new growth (with flowers, leaves and fruit) brittle and easy to snap off as you push the snow away. After heavy snows, I love to add fertilizer or lime atop the snow. As it melts away, it washes that nutrient or additive into the soil very well.

Tribes at odds in competing casino plan By Nicholas K. Geranios

The Associated Press

SPOKANE — A glittering casino in a Spokane suburb that has brought financial success to a tiny Native American tribe is drawing covetous eyes from a larger neighbor. The Kalispel tribe’s offreservation Northern Quest Resort and Casino in Airway Heights has been so successful in tapping the lucrative Spokane area’s market that the Spokane tribe of Indians is seeking rare federal approval to build a similar Vegas-style resort nearby. The quiet but intense conflict is enmeshed in a larger federal study of Native American gambling that critics fear could lead to a boom of off-reservation casinos in cities around the country. The Spokanes believe having two casinos will increase business for both tribes, just like clusters of casinos are a draw in Las Vegas and Reno, tribal chairman Greg Abrahamson said. “We are not trying to fight with them,” Abrahamson said. “We’re trying to be good partners and make it a win-win for them.” The Kalispels disagree. “It would be a competing business” and likely cut revenues, said Nick Pierre, director of the Kalispel Tribal Gaming Agency. Approving an off-reservation casino strictly on the grounds of generating higher revenues for a tribe could lead to an explosion of Indian gambling sites near large cities, Pierre said. “It would open the flood gates,” Pierre said. “You could have casinos in downtown Seattle.” Tribal gambling is big business, and many tribes want in on the action. In 2009, the 238 tribal casinos nationwide brought in $26.2 billion, according to the National Indian Gam-

ing Association. The Obama administration last summer launched a review of Bush-era rules that dramatically limited off-reservation gambling. The U.S. Department of Interior conducted six hearings around the country to take testimony on whether it should be easier for tribes to build off-reservation casinos. Only five such casinos, including the Northern Quest, have been approved in more than 20 years. Other tribes that got offreservation casinos were the Forest County Potawatomi of Wisconsin, the Keweenaw Bay of Michigan, the Fort Mojave of California and the Northern Cheyenne of Montana.

Eagles make Skagit River yearly rafting site By Ralph Schwartz Courier-Times

ROCKPORT — The same sturdy rubber raft that had floated through the Grand Canyon and down rivers in Alaska rolled easily down a Skagit River that was surging just a little from recent rains. At times the raft hugged the shore. Other times it sped down the middle of the fast-moving river and rolled above the choppy riffles that pass as rapids in this tame stretch of the Skagit. Guide Jon Turnbull knew just what angle to point the raft to ferry his passengers from one side to the other, to reach a point of interest on the eight miles between Marblemount and Rockport. He knew all the back channels — the one with the beaver dam, and the one with a leaning cedar where chum salmon were massing to spawn on this cold, rainy Tuesday. As the clouds unloaded on his passengers, Turnbull said he had his own way to distinguish between showers and rain: “If the drops bounce more than two inches, then it’s rain.” At one point on the trip, Turnbull didn’t need a ruler to know it was rain. The rain, or showers, sputtered on and off. Turnbull’s thermometer read 36 degrees. Those on the rafts

reminded each other to “think warm thoughts.” Still, the trip beat another day in the office by a mile. Sarah McCurdy would have been at her job at a Mount Vernon hotel if she wasn’t on her second-ever Skagit float trip. The first one was much different; it was in August. “Getting out of work to do something fun like this is great,” McCurdy said after her Nov. 16 trip was over.

River experience A lot of river experience was behind this trip. Guide Shane Turnbull — Jon’s older brother — operates Chinook Expeditions and claims on his website to have logged more than 100,000 river miles. The trip’s primary guide was Dave Button of Pacific NW Float Trips. Shane Turnbull said Button was the first commercial rafter in the state, having started in the early 1970s. That’s when bald eagle watching from the river took off and made commercial rafting viable yearround. The bald eagles come to the Skagit starting in November to feast on the carcasses of spawned-out salmon. Button said he gets customers from all across the United States and from foreign countries.

When the bald eagles that winter along the Upper Skagit are at their peak — in mid-December to early January — visitors can see hundreds of the birds on this particular stretch. The guides noted that surprisingly few of the people on their trips are locals. Dale Pineda, a 30-year employee at one of the March Point refineries, was on the Nov. 16 trip with his wife, Marilyn Pineda. She and several other members of Sedro-Woolley Community Troop Support were on the trip to scout out a float-trip fundraiser the group will hold next month. “We’ve lived here most of our life, and we’ve never done this trip,” Dale Pineda said. Retiree Sylvia Mangold, also on the trip, counted 91 bald eagles as the group of four rafts floated downstream.

The Associated Press

Counted twice

A bald eagle flies over its nest, which is about 80 feet up a tree.

To be more accurate, some of the birds may have been counted twice. Several flew from their perches and headed downstream as the rafts approached. For those birds that chose to stay put, the rafts would stop and the cameras would come out. Shane Turnbull kept saying the eagles were “skittery” about the rafts at this early point in their winter feeding season. They will eventually become more tolerant of the

slow-moving rafts, he said. The guides operate under a permit from the U.S. Forest Service that comes with certain restrictions. Boats may not launch before 11 a.m. between Dec. 26 and Feb. 26, and they may not beach onto gravel bars. “We feel the guides do a good job of educating about the eagles and watching them, and doing so in a considerate and safe manner,” said Greta Movassaghi, a

Forest Service natural resource specialist. Shane Turnbull has an interest in seeing both the eagles and the salmon that attract them protected. It’s a business interest, to be sure, but it also comes more organically from a lifetime spent between Marblemount and Diablo. Turnbull had his first gig as a river guide when he was 12. “Every winter we see the rhythms of the fish and the eagle numbers correlated,

and we also see the decline of the salmon overall,” Turnbull said. The eagle has bounced back so that the bird has been taken off the endangered species list. Recent salmon runs up the Skagit have been larger than the years immediately before but still are part of a long-term decline in the population. “We can’t just sit back and think that it’s good because its not,” Turnbull said.

Nature’s new wave? Mariners say swells getting bigger, stronger: Is climate change to blame? It’s under debate By Les Blumenthal Tacoma News Tribune

CAPE DISAPPOINTMENT — It’s one of the most treacherous stretches of water in the world. One million cubic feet of water a second collides with 20- or 30-foot ocean swells over a four-mile stretch of shifting sand. A small band of pilots brave oftentreacherous conditions to guide ships across the Columbia River Bar. The pilots who work the “Graveyard of the Pacific” have a deep respect for the relentless forces they face daily as they ride out to tankers, bulk carriers, car carriers, and cargo and passenger ships standing offshore. They commute in 72-foot selfrighting boats that can roll over 360 degrees as winter gales and sometimes hurricane-force storms blast out of the North Pacific. The pilots also confirm what marine scientists have just started discussing — ocean waves are becoming bigger and more powerful, and climate change could be the cause. “We’ve been talking about it for a couple of years now,” said Capt. Dan Jordan, who served in the merchant marine for 30 years before becoming a Columbia River Bar pilot.

“Mother Nature has an easy way of telling us who is in charge.” Using buoy data and models based on wind patterns, scientists say the waves off the coast of the Pacific Northwest and along the Atlantic seaboard from West Palm Beach, Fla., to Cape Hatteras, N.C., are steadily increasing in size. And, at least in the Northwest, the larger waves are considered more of a threat to coastal communities and beaches than is the rise in sea level accompanying global warming. Similar increases in wave height have been noticed in the North Atlantic off England.

Beyond continental shelf Unclear is whether the number and height of rogue waves beyond the continental shelf have increased. The existence of such freak waves, which can reach 100 feet or more in height and can swamp a large ship in seconds, wasn’t proved until 2004, when European satellites equipped with radar detected 10 of them during a three-week period. “Obviously, this is an issue we are interested in,” said Trevor Maynard of Lloyd’s of London’s emerging risk team, which tracks global climate change developments.

“We are seeing climate change fingerprints on a lot of events.” Since the mid-1970s, buoy data show that the average height of the biggest waves off the Northwest coast has increased about 4 inches a year, or about 10 feet total, according to Peter Ruggiero, an assistant professor of geosciences at Oregon State University and the lead author of a study published recently in the journal Coastal Engineering. Ruggiero and his colleagues also estimated the height of a “100-year” wave — the largest waves expected to come along every century. The estimate has increased 40 percent since the 1970s, from 33 feet to 46 feet. Some calculations estimate that a 100-year wave might be 55 feet high, taller than a five-story building. “We are assuming the trends will increase in the future,” Ruggiero said. But the future already may be here. Jordan, the Columbia River pilot, said a 44-foot wave was recorded off the river in October. In a major spring storm in 2007, a 54-foot wave was recorded. “After that, the buoy quit recording,” Jordan said. Turn

Chest physicians group accepts study done in part by PA doctor Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — The Dyspnea Crisis Project, a study on the treatment of crisis dyspnea, designed and conducted in part by Olympic Medical Physicians pulmonologist Dr. Mark Fischer, was accepted and recently displayed at the American College of Chest Physicians International Conference, CHEST 2010, in Vancouver, B.C. The purpose of the conference was for chest physicians to review current clinical t o p i c s Fischer related to chest medicine, learn relevant new clinical information, apply clinical recommendations from American College of Chest Physicians evidencebased guidelines, analyze information from investigative research and become more skilled in practice standards of care by participating in patient-simulated training.

Restricted breath Dyspnea is an acute awareness of breathing, often with distress. When a person suffers from crisis dyspnea, they may become anxious and panicked at their restricted ability to breath.

Many chronically ill patients with dyspnea crises may be near the end of life. “Crisis dyspnea is a painful and frightening condition that causes significant anxiety in the sufferer and. often times, the responding caregiver or provider,” said Fischer.

“Ultimately we want to enhance scientific evidence and educational products that provide protocols and guidance for all caregivers, patients and families — increasing the level of care to those who may suffer from acute crisis dyspnea.” Fischer, a pulmonary

medicine and internal medicine specialist with Olympic Medical Physicians, will also be a panelist at the International American Thoracic Society meeting in May 2011 in Denver where the Dyspnea Crisis Project will be presented as a halfday symposium.

Sequim Bay Yacht Club’s helm changing THE SEQUIM BAY Yacht Club will welcome its incoming bridge for 2011 on Wednesday, Dec. 8, at 7:30 p.m. at John Wayne Marina. Jim Jones is the incoming commodore, who will be assisted by Phillip Walker as vice commodore and Judy Shanks as rear commodore. Sandy Thomas is the new secretary. Missy Church-Smith will serve as assistant secretary. Shirley Patterson will be installed as the treasurer, and the assistant treasurer will be Jim Fitzpatrick. The current commodore, Jean Heessels-Petit, will serve as immediate past commodore. Trustees will be Larry Barnes, David Gittleman and George Brown. In 1975, John Wayne, the iconic film actor, director and producer, donated acreage at Pitship Point on Sequim Bay to the Port of Port Angeles for the purpose of building a marina. During his lifetime, the “Duke” owned two yachts, Norwester, a 76-foot vessel, and his more-famous Wild Goose, a 136foot converted World War II minesweeper. It was during his tenure as the owner of Wild Goose that he developed his fondness for the Pacific Northwest. For years he spent the summer months cruising the local waters, visiting Victoria and Vancouver, British Columbia, and steaming up the Inside Passage to Alaska. When he was filming, Wayne made arrangements to fly in to meet up with the yacht on weekends. His contribution of the marina property is the legacy of his love for the majesty of the Pacific Northwest.

Museum, the Ballard Nordic Heritage Museum, Gig Harbor BoatShop and staff at Cama Beach State Park, developed expertise in the use of computeraided design, or CAD, systems to record a boat’s measurements. The CAD systems used during the training allowed participants to see not only the vessel lines and details in three dimensions on a computer monitor, but to rotate and manipulate the data to gain a better understanding of the lines and, in turn, the shape of the vessel’s hull. The next step in the process is to find vessels to document. The aforementioned organizations have begun the hunt. Some vessels were easy to find — they are in museums — but the bulk of the schooners, sloops, launches and skiffs that may be in our geographical reach have yet to be discovered. And there is no telling where a historically important craft may reside. In one instance, an old and rare small craft used for inshore fishing in Southeast Alaska was found in a garden on the Olympic Peninsula. Anyone with information about older boats, barges, tugs or commercial fishing vessels are encouraged to contact Leenhouts or Becker at the Northwest School of Wooden Boatbuilding at 360-385-4948.

The tanker departed and was scheduled to arrive in Valdez, Alaska, at noon Saturday. On Tuesday, Tesoro did not refuel any vessels — but I did see a note on the scheduling board made by one of the tankermen that he heard a noise in the attic but was too scared to look. On Wednesday, Tesoro refueled Golden State, a 600-foot petroleum products tanker that then got under way for the refinery at Cherry Point. On Saturday, Tesoro had its refueling barge alongside Alaskan Navigator, sister ship to the Alaskan Legend.

A scientific debate is raging over what’s causing the increase in wave size. Possible causes include changing storm tracks,

Northwest are well aware of the problems posed by increasing wave heights. George Kaminsky is a coastal engineer with the Washington state Department of Ecology. He said the main concern is erosion, adding that last winter there was phenomenal erosion on the southern end of the state’s Long Beach Peninsula. “That data is convincing,” Kaminsky said. “It is a concern for us in Washington state. “Sea level rise gets a lot of attention, but if the waves get higher, that could be more of a problem.” Along the Columbia River, said Jordan, the river bar pilot, the Peacock Spit on the north end of the Columbia’s mouth and Clatsop Spit to the south are eroding. Eroding coastline In addition, some of the Coastal planners in the jetties have been damaged leaves,” he said. Others are skeptical about any link to climate change. Richard Seymour, head of the Ocean Engineering Research Group at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in California, said any connection between increased wave height and climate change was tenuous. In fact, Seymour said, there wasn’t enough data on wave heights to provide the “statistical reliability” to predict any trends. Seymour and others said too little is known about the oceans. “It always struck me as odd we know more about the surface of Mars than the floor of the Pacific Ocean,” he said.

by the higher waves and more intense storms. When conditions get too rough, the Coast Guard closes the bar. The bar was closed for several days last month, and Jordan said that typically the bar is closed four or five times each winter. Not only are the waves getting bigger, Jordan said, but they’re getting more powerful, driven by increasingly intense storm systems. In all his years at sea, Jordan said, the biggest wave he’s seen was about 60 feet high. When the big swells collide with the water flowing out of the Columbia, Jordan said, it can get ugly really quickly on the bar. “These aren’t beautiful waves,” he said. “It’s nothing you would want to surf.”

Among the weather phenomenon that could be affecting wave heights in the Pacific, Ruggiero said, are El Niño — warmer surface temperatures in the tropical eastern Pacific — and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation — 20- to 30-year patterns of warmer or cooler surface temperatures in the Pacific. “There is a lot of speculation, a lot of reading of tea

“The averages aren’t very exciting,” said Peter Adams, an assistant professor in the University of Florida’s Department of Geological Sciences. He used wind data from the past 20 to 30 years to develop a wave-height model. “Given that there are 3 million waves a year, one wave every 10 seconds, it’s not so alarming,” he said. Adams said that what he finds startling is that the height of the biggest waves has increased nearly one foot in 10 years. “In a lifetime, that can be profound,” he said.

Shoppers nationwide grab early deals By Anne D’innocenzio The Associated Press

For one day at least, you could almost imagine the recession never happened. Millions of the nation’s shoppers braved rain and cold to crowd stores while others grabbed online bargains on what could be the busiest post-Thanksgiving shopping day ever. Early Also . . . s i g n s ■ Improved pointed to weather bigger encourages crowds at m a n y Peninsula stores buyers/A1 including Best Buy, Sears, Macy’s and Toys R Us, some of which had earlier openings than past years or even round-theclock hours. Minnesota’s Mall of America and mall operators Taubman Centers Inc. and Macerich Co. also reported more customers than last year. But the most encouraging sign for retailing and for the economy was what Americans were throwing in their carts. Shoppers still clutched lists and the buying frenzy was focused on the deals on TVs and toys — but many were treating themselves while they bought gifts for others, adding items like boots, sumptuous sweaters, jewelry and even dresses for special occasions. Elayne Breton and her daughter Michelle got to Maryland’s Mall in Columbia around 7 a.m. A few hours later, Michelle had picked out several presents for herself, including a pair of UGG boots, perfume and an iPod

Touch. At Nordstrom, she scored a long-sleeved purple shirt that her mother let her wear out of the store. “Last year we were careful,” said Elayne, whose husband’s beer distribution business has started to pick up again. “This year we’ll do more.”

More nonessentials The strong Black Friday builds on retailers’ momentum after a solid start to November. Shoppers who can afford it are buying more nonessentials, like jewelry and luxury goods. “Last year, consumers were extremely into the basics, the socks, the pillows,” said Keith Jelinek, director of the global retail practice at consulting firm AlixPartners. “This year, they’re hungry to dress up their ward-

robes, their homes. “Shoppers were buying items with a little more pizazz, trendier sweaters, sheets in higher thread counts.” He cautioned that they’re not looking to replace everything — just looking for a few special items. “They’re still very valueconscious,” he added. Macy’s CEO Terry Lundgren said there were 7,000 people outside its Manhattan flagship store for its 4 a.m. opening, up from 5,000 people a year ago. “The difference between this year and last year was that last year, people had a budget and a list,” he said. “They’re doing the same thing this year, but they’re also buying for themselves.” Among some of the hot sellers were a luggage set for $49.99 and $39.99 cashmere sweaters. He noted that two groups that helped fuel customer traffic were young shoppers, ages 15 to 25, and men, both of whom were buying for themselves. Sharply reduced prices on flat-screen TVs helped fuel many stores’ sales, according to Marshal Cohen, market research analyst at NPD Group Inc. Stores were grappling with a glut of TVs heading into the season because they had overestimated consumer demand.

retailers some nail-biting moments waiting for sales the last few days before Christmas. Last year, the Thanksgiving shopping weekend accounted for 12.3 percent of overall holiday revenue, according to ShopperTrak. Black Friday made up about half of that.

Higher gas prices due for holiday season The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Many Americans are determined not to let higher gas be the Grinch that spoils their holiday spending plans. Gas prices on average have risen about 17 cents since Labor Day, following a $12 increase in oil prices. By one analyst’s estimate, that means Americans are spending around $68 million more on gas each day than in early September. While that sounds like a threat to sales of Barbie Video Girl dolls and even iPods, on an individual basis the increase amounts to $3 or $4 extra to fill up a car, a bit more for an SUV or a pick-up. Many motorists absorb the cost increases by skipping the gourmet coffee or passing on a movie. Or they drive less. Cassie Peterson, 25, a health coordinator from St. Paul, said higher prices won’t change what she buys for her nieces, as she pumped gas into a Ford F-350 pickup truck at a SuperAmerica gas station in White Bear Lake, Minn., on Friday. She paid $2.80 per gallon. “Whatever I see and they like, they get,” she said. While the national average for gas of $2.86 per gallon is the highest it’s been at the start of the holiday shopping season in three years — and prices have topped $3 in some major U.S. cities — hardly hits drivers with the sticker shock they experienced when gas topped $4 per gallon in 2008.

ago was $2.85 a gallon. “If this was the first time, it would have huge implications,” said Marshal Cohen, chief industry analyst at market research firm NPD Group. “But consumers have seen this several times before.” Analysts like Cohen do concede that the $3 mark does make drivers notice and can influence spending habits. They expect most Americans will similarly choose to forgo those smaller things instead of gifts. “For this holiday season, I think consumers are kind of holding the course,” says David Portalatin, director of industry analysis for the NPD Group.

Watchtower is spot for UFO seekers By Kirk Johnson

The New York Times

HOOPER, Colo. — “I like humans; they’re fun,” Judy Messoline said as she showed a visitor through her vortex garden, which psychics have said contains not just one, but two separate portals to a parallel universe. Many of the humans who come to Messoline’s UFO Watchtower, hard by the dueling vortexes, may be fun, but they are also wounded. About 95 percent, by her estimate — and she makes a point of asking — have experienced something, a shudder in the fabric of the ordinary, the sighting of an unidentified flying object that to one degree or another has haunted them and drawn them to this otherwise empty spot in southcentral Colorado. Having fun in thinking about extraterrestrials, she said, is usually bound up with something deeper on the home planet. “The world needs a place where people can go to talk about their experiences and not be laughed at,” she said.

UFO ‘party’ People do laugh here. One of Messoline’s principles in building the Watchtower a decade ago, in an attempt to raise cash as her cattle ranch collapsed in economic ruin, was that

UFO spotting should be a hoot and, whenever possible, a party. “The best sightings have been when people are just out enjoying the evening,” she said. Fifty-nine events — lights that move erratically or, during the day, objects that defy explanation in shape or movement — have been witnessed from the tower since 2000, Messoline said, sometimes by dozens of people at the same time. No one knows the count before that, since no local institution existed for counting.

A hot spot Many residents, though, say the San Luis Valley, just north of the New Mexico state line, has been a UFO hot spot for decades. UFO reports reach to the early settlements of the 1600s, with a particularly noted wave in the late 1960s. The turmoil of modern life is also in evidence near the tower, at the house once occupied by Messoline’s son and his family, now vacant and in foreclosure since the couple’s divorce. “Broke my heart,” Messoline said. Adding to the pain, she said, is that the house will probably never sell. “Who wants to live next to a UFO Watchtower?” she said. Truth be told, the Watch-

tower — just a framed metal platform perhaps 10 feet off the ground — is not much of a moneymaker at $2 a head for admission. Messoline, 65, a former housecleaner from the Denver area who moved to Hooper in the mid-1990s, still needs the paycheck from Miss Deb’s, a convenience store down the road, identified by the giant chicken out in front, to make ends meet. But that is the interconnection of a lot of things in Hooper, a dot of perhaps 100 souls in a vast and lonely place. Harsh realities in economics and climate — high poverty rates and brutal winters — are interlaced with vistas of breathtaking beauty and a local culture that has long prized and cultivated the offbeat. Messoline furthered that spirit by encouraging visitors to leave something in her vortex garden. One recent offering — a 2-foot-tall Superman doll with one hand extended, holding a bottle of hot sauce, perhaps in greeting or in supplication. Another visitor left a primer for extraterrestrials who might find themselves confused about human tableware. A folding knife-andspoon was marked with text and helpful arrows pointing in the direction of each object. “This is a knife and a

One corner of the San Luis Valley, banked on all sides by mountains, somehow became a collecting spot for blown sand over the past few thousand years, since the drying up of an ancient lake bed. The result: a little bit of the Sahara transplanted to Colorado at Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, about 15 miles away. The sky, meanwhile, with barely a town to break the landscape, displays a riot of stars at night and is huge at all hours. And people here are used to being out and aware of their surroundings, which

makes them perhaps more likely than city folk to see things in the great Out There. “There’s not a lot of activity, so people have more opportunity to be watching what’s around them,” said JoDene Newmyer, 64, who works with Messoline at the convenience store.

‘Unidentifiable’ Newmyer’s own UFO story — and most people here seem to have one — occurred the Friday morning of Memorial Day weekend 1972. She was driving her daughter to the baby-sitter at 7 a.m. when she stopped cold at the sight of a huge angular silver object just

above the horizon. “Flying saucer? I will not say that,” Newmyer said. “But unidentifiable it definitely was, because I’ve never seen anything like it.” Messoline said the years of scanning the sky and of meeting people who are drawn to her and her tower have changed her. She decided recently to put the patch of ground under the tower and the vortex garden in her will, donating it to a UFO research group in Denver to continue the work, or the fun, after she’s gone, even though she knows that a tower in perpetuity will probably doom any chance of a sale of her son’s nearby former home.

Turning wild bluefin tuna into farm animals By Paul Greenberg The New York Times

NEW YORK — In the wide expanse of the wild ocean, there is perhaps nothing more wild than the world’s largest tuna — the giant Atlantic bluefin. Equipped with a kind of natural GPS system that biologists have yet to decode, the bluefin can cross and recross the Atlantic’s breadth multiple times in the course of its life. Its furious metabolism enables the fish to sprint at more than 40 miles an hour, heat its muscles 20 degrees above ambient and hunt relentlessly at frigid depths in excess of 1,500 feet. Yet in spite of all of its unwieldy and feral characteristics, aquaculture scientists have just announced an important step toward converting the Atlantic bluefin, in rapid decline in the wild, into a farm animal. Researchers at a European Union-financed program, Selfdott, said they had succeeded in spawning the Atlantic bluefin in captivity without hormonal intervention. If they can solve the problem of raising the offspring to adulthood — a challenging prospect — the bluefin may soon join Atlantic salmon, rainbow trout, branzino, yellowtail, turbot, shrimp, catfish and tilapia as an industrially farmed staple of the modern fish market. Which brings up an interesting question: Can a

farmed version of bluefin tuna be better for the Earth — and the species? The potential taming of the Atlantic bluefin highlights an epochal shift. Seafood today is roughly where land food was 10,000 odd years ago. Just as Neolithic humans launched a domestication project after the last Ice Age and eventually replaced many wild mammal populations with tame ones, so, too, are modern humans parsing and domesticating the ocean, fish by fish.

Domestication of ocean In the last 50 years, the global seafood market has transformed from one based on wild fish and shellfish to one in which farming supplies nearly half of the market, according to the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization. Leading this transition is wild Atlantic salmon, which collapsed as a commercial species in the 1960s and was subsequently replaced in the marketplace by farmed Atlantic salmon. Atlantic salmon is now priced at a level so that many consumers can enjoy it, but its availability has not been without repercussions. Farmed salmon are often grown in the pathways of wild salmon migration routes, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Blue Ocean Institute and many other ocean-focused nonprofit groups place farmed salmon on their “do not eat” lists,

largely because of the threat that farm-born diseases, waste and parasites may pose to already severely depressed runs of Atlantic salmon. Cultivating Atlantic bluefin tuna, environmentalists argue, could be even more harmful to the ocean than salmon farming. Atlantic bluefin are already ranched in great numbers — taken from the wild and fattened in net pens with wild forage fish like herring and sardines. There, it may take anywhere from 5 pounds to 15 pounds of wild fish to grow a single pound of Atlantic bluefin. Stanford economist Rosamond Naylor pointed out in a recent paper in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that there was not too much room for adding species to the world’s aquaculture portfolio. “Most forage fisheries,” Naylor wrote “are either fully exploited to overexploited or are in the process of recovering from overexploitation.” If she is right — and if bluefin tuna farming is ramped up to the level of salmon farming, which produces more than 2 billion pounds a year — the effect on forage fish, the foundation of the oceanic food chain, could be devastating. A worldwide overharvest of forage fish could damage not just bluefin tuna populations but other important commercial species that also rely on these fish

Sharks shielded, but not tuna The Associated Press

PARIS — An international conservation conference in Paris made progress Saturday on protecting sharks — but didn’t do anything to save the Atlantic bluefin tuna, which has been severely overfished to feed the market for sushi in Japan, environmental groups said. Delegates from 48 nations spent 11 days in Paris haggling over fishing quotas for the Atlantic and Mediterranean, poring over scientific data and pitting the demands of environmentalists against those of the fishing industry. Conservation groups said delegates took steps in the right direction with moves to protect oceanic whitetip sharks and many hammerheads in the Atlantic, though they had hoped for more. Sharks were once an accidental catch for fishermen but have been increasingly targeted because of the growing market in Asia for their

for sustenance. But alternatives to forage fish are being developed, including feed pellets made from algae and other vegetable matter. As Frederic Barrows, a fish physiologist and nutritionist with the Agriculture Department, puts it: “Fish need nutrients, not ingredients,” and there are already experimental tuna diets undergoing trials that don’t require fish meal.

fins, an expensive delicacy used in soup. WWF, Greenpeace, Oceana and the Pew Environment Group all strongly criticized the 2011 bluefin quotas set by the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas, or ICCAT, which manages tuna in the Atlantic and Mediterranean as well as species that have traditionally been accidental catches for tuna fishermen.

Tuna limits Environmental groups had hoped to see bluefin fishing slashed or suspended, saying illegal fishing is rampant in the Mediterranean and that scientists don’t have good enough data to evaluate the problem. The commission agreed to cut the bluefin fishing quota in the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean from 13,500 to 12,900 metric tons annually — about a 4 percent reduction. It also agreed on mea-

Another alternative is to farm species that seem naturally appropriate for domestication. If Atlantic bluefin is not farmed, it will most likely become an even more scarce luxury item. Global fishing moratoriums on the species have been proposed (and then rejected by the many nations that catch bluefin). But other options being discussed include drasti-

Sergi Tudela, head of WWF Mediterranean’s fisheries program, attacked the “measly quota reduction.” The CNPMEM French fishing industry union praised the decision, saying “reason prevailed.” While the focus of the Paris meeting was tuna, sharks have become a growing concern. Although there are elaborate international fishing regulations and quotas for other types of fish, sharks have long been an afterthought, even though some species have declined by 99 percent, Oceana said. The international commission banned fishermen from catching and retaining oceanic whitetip sharks. It voted to limit the catch of several types of hammerhead sharks and to require countries to keep data on shortfin mako sharks.

FDIC finds fewer state banks, loans Peninsula Daily News news services

The Associated Press

The U.S. government recommends that a small population of dolphins near Hawaii known as false killer whales be put on the endangered species list. This false killer whale leaps while chasing prey.

Research finds beached dolphins are often deaf Peninsula Daily News news services

MIAMI — New research into the cause of dolphin “strandings” — incidents in which weakened or dead dolphins are found near shore — has shown that in some species, many stranded creatures share the same problem. They are nearly deaf, in a world where hearing can be as valuable as sight. That understanding — gained from a study of dolphins’ brain activity — could help explain why such intelligent animals do something so seemingly dumb. Unable to use sound to find food or family members, dolphins can wind up weak and disoriented. Researchers are unsure what is causing the hearing loss. It might be old age, birth defects or a cacophony of man-made noise in the ocean, including Navy sonar, which has been associated with some marine-mammal strandings in recent years. The news, researchers say, is a warning for those who rescue and release injured dolphins. In some cases, the animals might be going back to a world they can’t hear. “Rehab is pretty timeconsuming and pretty expensive,” said David Mann, a professor at the University of South Florida and the study’s lead author. If the dolphin can’t hear, he said, “there’s almost no point in rehabbing it and releasing it.”

The study, which was published this month in the journal PLoS One, examined several species of Eurotop Set marineQueen mammals — including dolphins and small whales — living in the Gulf of Mexico, Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.

ocean. Dolphins evolved when the only source of loud sounds underwater would have been thunderstorms or unusual events such as volcanic eruptions. Now, however, there are the sounds of powerboats and huge oceangoing ships. Oil- and gas-exploration efforts use loud noises to conduct seismic tests of the seabed. Navy exercises fill the water with the sounds of explosions and sonar. The association between marine-mammal strandings and sonar has spawned several major lawsuits from the Natural Resources Defense Council and others. One resulted in an injunction against the Navy’s use of sonar in some areas with high marinemammal populations.

banks are more cautious this year than they were previously. Washington banks have put aside more capital to protect themselves against risky investments and have decreased their concentration in real estate loans — a major source of failure during the current financial crisis. The overall number of loans issued has dropped each year. In 2008, Washington financial institutions had 63,357 loans on the books; in 2009, 57,522 loans; and in 2010, 45,838 loans. Meanwhile, almost 3,000 bank employees have left the Washington banking industry since 2008. The report said there were 13,527 people working in banking at the end of the third quarter 2010. Washington’s results were about on par with national trends, which showed slight improvements in the banking sector overall over the past year. However, Washington banks appear to be less profitable, making fewer loans than the average.

Kathleen Potter

High-court ruling In 2008, the Supreme Court overturned that decision, saying the Navy needed an unfettered right to test sonar even if whales and dolphins might be harmed. Other research has shown that North Atlantic right whales are making louder noises than in generations past, seemingly “shouting” to be heard over the ocean’s background noise. Other work has predicted that as carbon emissions make the oceans more acidic, they may only conduct sound better — worsening the din. In Sarasota Bay, Fla., home to about 160 dolphins, researchers have calculated that a powerboat passes within 100 yards of every dolphin every six minutes. “These animals that are very finely tuned acoustic machines are now having . . . to deal with noises, with sounds that their ancestors never knew,” Wells said.

Stranded in the wild

stranded animals had hearing problems. Among rough-toothed dolphins, the total was five out of 14. That, they said, could be a serious problem for animals that live in oftenmurky waters. Bottlenose dolphins often use sound to find each other. Each has a “signature whistle” all their own. In addition to hearing sounds made by other creatures, dolphins use their own sonar to hunt and locate the seafloor and other objects. Scientists say these rapid-fire sounds — a series of clicks to human ears — return to give the dolphins information about the size and shape of prey. “These animals are living in an environment where vision can’t play the same role it does on land,” said Randall Wells, a senior conservation scientist at the Chicago Zoological Society who was another of the Inside the brain study’s authors. “Sound is probably the Instead, researchers most important sense that looked for reactions to the they have.” sound inside the animals’ brains.

The animals had been found stranded in the wild and taken in for medical treatment and feeding. Each year, from 1,200 to 1,600 whales and dolphins are found stranded off the U.S. coast, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The vast majority are dead. In 2007, the most recent year with data, only 195 out of 1,263 animals were found alive. But many of those die later or are euthanized on the scene. Others survive but are too young or too debilitated to be returned to the wild. Of the 195 animals found alive that year, five were released. Trying to study what put these animals in distress, the researchers faced a puzzle. How do you test a dolphin’s hearing? “They can’t raise their flipper” if they hear a tone, Mann said.

SEATTLE — First, the bad news: Washington state has fewer banks, with a higher percentage of those banks being unprofitable, and a higher ratio of nonperforming assets than two years ago, according to a quarterly banking summary released by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. The good news: The banks are doing better than they were last year. The report, released last week, showed that at the end of the third quarter in 2008, there were 97 banks based in Washington. This year there are 82. Aggregate income of all institutions was at a net loss of 259 million this year, with 45 percent of banks being unprofitable — down from 61 percent of banks being unprofitable last year. About 6 percent of bank assets were nonperforming in 2010, down from 7.5 percent the year before but up from 3 percent in 2008. The numbers are a reflection of the fact that many banks have gotten bad loans off their books. So far this year, 11 banks in the state have failed. Dozens of other are under enforcement by regulators to raise money. The data also showed

Sex addiction rehab thriving industry Peninsula Daily News news services

LOS ANGELES â&#x20AC;&#x201D; When she hung out her shingle as a sex addiction therapist in 1997, Alexandra Katehakis had only a handful of colleagues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were five people in this field, and we all knew each other,â&#x20AC;? she said. These days, Katehakis, a licensed marriage and family therapist, has hundreds of competitors and has grown her Los Angeles solo practice into the Center for Healthy Sex, â&#x20AC;&#x153;a full-blown organizationâ&#x20AC;? with a team of counselors, an intensive outpatient program, a range of therapy groups, an expansive website and training for other therapists. Celebrities have been the greatest evangelists for treatment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My practice wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exist without them,â&#x20AC;? Katehakis said.

Tiger Woodsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; impact The for-profit field is booming, thanks largely to Tiger Woods and other celebrities whose public visits to rehab have moved sex addiction, a controversial diagnosis not recognized by the medical establishment, into the mainstream and led a growing number of Americans to conclude that they â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or in many cases, their spouses â&#x20AC;&#x201D; needed treatment. A testament to the increasing demand for services â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the potential money to be made providing them â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is the recent entrance into the sex addiction market of the privateequity-backed corporation that owns Promises, the high-end Malibu drug rehabilitation center known for its Hollywood clientele. Based in Cerritos, Calif., the company, Elements Behavioral Health, is buying a Westside treatment center, the Sexual Recovery Institute, as part of an expansion that will eventually include deluxe inpatient facilities like Promises for wealthy sex addicts

The Associated Press

Celebrity sex scandals like that of golfer Tiger Woods, shown with his wife, Elin, before their divorce, have helped fuel mainstream demand for treatment of sex addiction. and a national network of two-week outpatient programs for those of lesser means. The company has not disclosed the purchase price, but Chief Executive David Sack said Elements was making a significant investment on the belief that the Internet, with its easy access to pornography and casual liaisons, had created an epidemic of untreated sex addiction in America â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that the rehab stays of Woods, actors Russell Brand and David Duchovny and others had informed a previously ignorant public about the existence of treatment programs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have a backlog of people who need this treatment, and all of a sudden through a celebrity they have become aware that something can be done,â&#x20AC;? said Sack, a psychiatrist. Just how many people are seeking treatment is unclear. The rapid expansion of sex addiction programs, frequently described as â&#x20AC;&#x153;exponentialâ&#x20AC;? by those in the field, is occurring without the government regulation that exists in drug and alcohol treatment. Public health agencies, insurance companies and others who compile data for

other types of treatment do not monitor sex addiction because it is not listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the American Psychiatric Associationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s compendium of ailments. Dr. Martin Kafka, a Boston-area psychiatrist and leader in the research of compulsive sexual behavior, said there was serious disagreement in the scientific community over whether humans could be addicted to sex in the same way they could be to alcohol or drugs. He said there was a lack of data demonstrating that sex addicts build up a tolerance over time or go through withdrawal if deprived of sex â&#x20AC;&#x201D; two characteristics of substance addiction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not to say that in the next decade that there wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be . . . an empirical scientific backing for withdrawal and tolerance, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just not there now,â&#x20AC;? Kafka said.

Addicted percentages Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s left it to the industry to define sex addiction, and it does so broadly. Sex addiction is â&#x20AC;&#x153;any sexually related, compulsive behavior which interferes with normal living

and causes severe stress on family, friends, loved ones and oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work environment,â&#x20AC;? according to a group that certifies sex therapists, the International Institute for Trauma and Addiction Professionals, or IITAP. Some in the field estimate that 3 percent to 5 percent of Americans are sex addicts, while others say the proportion is probably greater. The made-for-tabloid scandals around Woods and reality-TV star Jesse James, with their beautiful wronged wives and choruses of mistresses, prompted some pundits to dismiss sex addiction as a convenient recasting of run-of-the-mill infidelity. Therapists acknowledge that the threatened loss of a marriage, job or health is normally what prompts treatment, but they say someone who has had an affair or two would never be diagnosed as a sex addict. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By the time they get here, they usually have hundreds of [sexual] contacts and years and years of a double life,â&#x20AC;? said Rob Weiss, the founding director of the Sexual Recovery Institute, an outpatient center near Beverly Hills. However sex addiction is defined, there is ample anecdotal evidence that more people think they have it. The number of sex therapists certified by the international institute has doubled â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to about 900 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; since 2007, and counselors say demand increases monthly. Weiss said business at the Sexual Recovery Institute was up 50 percent from a year ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the Tiger story sort of blew [the issue of sex addiction] out of the water because he went to a treatment center specifically for sexual addiction,â&#x20AC;? Weiss said, referring to reports that the golfer was treated at Gentle Path, an inpatient program in Hattiesburg, Miss.

A Saturday morning information session for the public that the Sexual Recovery Institute began offering the month after Woods went to rehab draws 35 to 50 people each week. That sex addiction is not considered a legitimate psychiatric diagnosis appears irrelevant to clients. They are finding rehab centers and outpatient programs through Google searches rather than referrals from their family doctors, Weiss said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is absolutely consumer-driven. People are saying, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care what the clinical community says. My husband is out three nights a week, and he just gave me herpes,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he said.

Website interest On the day in 2008 that Duchovny publicly announced he was checking into rehab for sex addiction, the website sexhelp.com, which features a quiz titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Am I a Sex Addict?,â&#x20AC;? got 50,000 visitors before its server crashed, according to Tami VerHelst, the vice president of IITAP, which runs the site. Capacity was expanded, and VerHelst said an average of 16,000 users took the quiz every month, answering questions such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Has sex become the most important thing in your life?â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Have you felt degraded by your sexual behavior?â&#x20AC;? Sex addiction treatment is expanding despite costs that can quickly rise into the tens of thousands of dollars. The tony Sierra Tucson, an Arizona center for sex, drug and other addictions and the place where James sought treatment after his split with actress Sandra Bullock, costs $40,000 a month. The Sexual Recovery Institute charges $7,500 for a two-week outpatient program. There is already an array of treatment options, including six-week in-patient facilities, three-day out-

patient programs and couples counseling. Treatment varies, but most centers follow the therapy plan laid out by Patrick Carnes, the dean of sex addiction treatment and the executive director of Gentle Path. Therapy often includes full disclosure of sexual encounters to spouses, including names, dates and locations, and a search for an underlying problem, such as childhood trauma or depression. There are no independent studies on recidivism in sex addicts, but practitioners describe it as extremely high. For an alcoholic, sobriety is abstinence, but the goal for a sex addict is more amorphous: a healthy sex life. Part of therapy is reaching a personal definition of sobriety, and it is often a trial-and-error process. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really difficult in terms of people being able to get traction for recovery â&#x20AC;&#x201D; relapse is the norm,â&#x20AC;? said Brigitte Lank, a Marin County psychologist who treats sex addicts.

Mostly men On the Web â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the main driver of business for treatment centers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; therapists tout programs as â&#x20AC;&#x153;costeffectiveâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;affordable.â&#x20AC;? Their sites are polished and feature videos, blogs, reading lists and descriptions of the problems they treat â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from voyeurism to porn addiction. Although the overwhelming majority of those treated for sex addiction are men, the sites often seem geared toward their wives, with photos of couples engaged in deep conversation and women with pained expressions. According to treatment centers, women frequently place the initial calls seeking information, and most therapists and in-patient programs have special programs for spouses.

Debt turmoil in EU LISBON, Portugal — The European Union struggled mightily Friday to keep the debt crisis from engulfing country after country. Portugal passed austerity measures to fend off the speculative trades pushing it toward a bailout, and Ireland rushed to negotiate its own imminent rescue. As Portugal and Spain insisted they will not seek outside help, creating an eery sense of deja vu for investors, Europe braced for what seems inevitable — more expensive bailouts. The Portuguese Parliament approved an unpopular debt-reducing package, including tax hikes and cuts in pay and welfare benefits. But while that helped to avoid a sharper deterioration in bond markets, the sense among analysts was that the move had only bought a little time. Adding to the pressure, Ireland’s major banks were hit with credit downgrades — one to junk bond status — as speculation mounted that the EU-IMF bailout of Ireland, to be revealed within days, would require investors to take losses.

National design winner Laurel Black Design of Port Angeles has been named a winner in the annual American Graphic Design Awards competition. It won for a logo it created for Callis & Associates Insurance, 806 S. Vine St., Port Angeles. The competition is a premiere showcase for American graphic design, and fewer than 15 percent are chosen from more than 8,000 submissions. “I was very gratified to receive this recognition,” said designer Laurel Black. “The folks at Callis & Associates were a treat to work with — and proved the axiom that great clients make for great work.” An independent agency, Callis & Associates has provided customized insurance to the North Olympic Peninsula since 1948. Co-owner Andy Callis said his brokerage’s new logo “is a great reflection of our agency being both a valuable member of the community for the last 70 years, as well as a modern symbol moving forward into the future.” Peninsula Daily News

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Go over everything you will need for work, an interview or anything that has to do with your professional future.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may hurt someone’s feelings, leading to a dispute that can alter your plans.

A legal matter or deal you are embarking on will cause anxiety. Disputing what’s being done will not get you any closer to an agreement. Listen to what’s being offered and respond diplomatically. 3 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Not everyone is on your side. Don’t share your thoughts and plans. Opposition is prevalent and can lead to arguments regarding deals, legal matters, settlements or financial debts. Have a secondary plan ready. 2 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Taking part in community events or volunteering your services will lead to fabulous introductions. The people you meet will enrich your life and increase your knowledge. Don’t let an incident developing in your professional life ruin your day. 4 stars

With change comes new beginnings and adventure. 2 stars CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): Put more effort into the deals you are trying to get off the ground. The talks you have with serious-minded people will give you a better idea of what’s required to get things moving. Don’t let ties to your past stop you from making the best and the right decision now. 5 stars AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18): It will be a waste of time arguing with someone who is determined to do things a different way. Compromise and get along in order to get the most accomplished. A relationship with someone you have known for some time can change if you discuss beliefs, attitudes and intentions. 3 stars PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Keep your thoughts to yourself. Impulsive responses will lead to a loss of friendship. Go over your personal papers. You have options and should utilize your skills in order to pursue an old dream. 3 stars

Girlfriend pays Not all families need to buy for everything or make gifts for the teacher A READER — WHOM we’ll call Deep Pockets — started dating Jim, a coworker, 10 years ago. He was going through a divorce. His wife had nearly bankrupted them with her gambling, and they had to sell their house to pay off a $60,000 home equity line of credit and $40,000 of credit card debt. He had to pay her $1,000 month maintenance for 10 years and give her $100,000 from his retirement accounts. They had no children together, and she worked as a hairdresser before, during and after the marriage. He moved back home to live with his mother.

Tales from the Front

Cheryl Lavin Deep Pockets

For the first nine years of our relationship, everything seemed OK. I was laid off but got another job at $40,000 a year, 30 percent less than I before. Jim’s income soared. There were several years he made in excess of $100,000. Turn

I AM THE room mom for my 9-year-old daughter’s class. I recently received suggestions from a couple of parents for holiday gifts for the teacher. They feel with today’s loss of income for many families, the kids should make small individual items. However, there are some parents who would rather buy their gifts and seem to be insulted by the suggestion. How should I handle this without taking sides?

Retired teacher Handmade gift items are usually well-received by anyone who gets them, especially most teachers. As a retired teacher, those are the one gifts I treasured the most and still have to this day. Anyone can run out and purchase a store-bought

Parent to Parent Jodie Lynn gift, but knowing someone has taken the time to create a personal item brings great appreciation and fondness. If some parents want to purchase products for the teacher, let them. The teacher will be happy to receive whatever items the students offer. However, the students who take the extra effort for the homemade one will be forever remembered and etch a more vivid memory in the heart of their teacher. — Bette J. V. in Peninsula, N.Y.

As the room mom, it is your responsibility to make the final decision on matters like this until the end of your term. However, it is also your to obligation to listen to the opinions of each parent, especially if they come together and offer a suggestion as a group. If most of the parents agree that homemade gifts for the teacher would work best for everyone’s budget, then just go with the flow. Nevertheless, why not cover all the bases and write up a note offering a couple of giftgiving ideas, and include the option to buy one at the store, if that works best for individual families. There is absolutely no reason that would require everyone to do the same thing. This is the time of year when everyone is supposed to be grateful for what they do have and for what they can share. As we know, you can’t and shouldn’t hope to please all people at all times, so don’t waste your time trying. If you decide to take on the worrywart role

of people-pleasing, it will only lead to additional stress and frustration during the holidays.

Can you help? My ex-wife drinks a fivehour power energy drink twice a day to get through work and night school. Last week, I caught my 8-year-old drinking one, and she told me her mom gives her one every morning before school. These are not even good for adults, much less for kids. I am very upset but am apprehensive about pointing out my opinion to my daughter’s mom. The last thing I want to do is cause an argument or tell her how to raise our daughter as I know firsthand it doesn’t work. What should I say to avoid the accusing, fingerpointing scene?

tive design discussions, she says, is the same as for any exchange. Make sure both people are heard, and that neither speaks over, or for, the other. Chomica sees it time and again: When a couple listens to each other, they find common ground. “By the end [of the discussion], they are so excited to move forward,” she says. In a workplace, Chomica adds, merely rearranging furniture and adding a little something new does a lot to boost morale. As for Port Angeles, Chomica says she is “thrilled” by the city’s Waterfront and Transportation Improvement Plan, which proposes expansion of Hollywood Beach, a pedestrian plaza on Railroad Avenue and an esplanade along the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Chomica shares the view of many of her clients, who like her have lived in other parts of the continent: There is surpassing beauty in Port Angeles’ natural surroundings. The future is bright, Chomica believes, for the built environment. “There is a lot of potential,” for innovative design and decor. “I love that change is coming,” she says. Chomica’s vision: “to beautify Port Angeles, one building at a time.”

Acne keeps woman at home DEAR JOHN: I know this sounds silly, but I have this thing about going out of the house when I have zits on my face. I’m in my 20s and still break out with adult acne. My friends get angry because I’m always canceling on them when we’ve made plans to go out, which seems to make me break out even more. But since these dates are usually to meet guys, I know I’m not doing myself any favors. Any suggestions? — Pockmarked in Nashville, Tenn. Dear Pockmarked: If you don’t look your best, that will certainly affect

Mars vs.

Venus John Gray how you feel about yourself, which in turn affects how you act around others. Of course, they will sense your discomfort perhaps not knowing why. Awkward, right? Since this is a reoccurring issue, my suggestion is to see a dermatologist as soon as possible. The better you look, the better you will feel, which is the end

game here. However, if after your skin clears up, you still feel insecure or shy about going out, you need to re-examine the underlying issues behind your anxiety. It could be you’re afraid of rejection, particularly if you have a history of that. But first things first: Hopefully, your anxiety is only skin deep, so get serious about clearing up the zits.
