Oil rig, transport make final preparations Ship’s departure time uncertain BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — After nearly two months in Port Angeles Harbor, the Polar Pioneer was welded to the deck of the MV Dockwise Vanguard, and the behemoth pair of ocean-going marvels of engineering were on the verge of departure late Wednesday afternoon. Officials did not have a definitive departure time for the oversize ship and its massive cargo. The Dockwise Vanguard will leave as soon as it is ready, but the departure time was uncertain and could happen at any time Wednes-

day or today, said Robb Erickson, vice president of sales for the U.S. division of Dockwise Shipping of the Netherlands. The ship initially was scheduled to depart Monday. On Tuesday, officials said the oil rig would leave the harbor Wednesday. “What’s holding it up is adjustments and the process of getting the sea fastenings attached. Sometimes it’s slower,” Erickson said. As soon as the adjustments are complete, the ship will fire up its engines and depart for Norway, he said. Erickson said he has received

photographs of his company’s vessel in the port and compared the imagery to Rio de Janeiro’s harbor and Norwegian fjords. “It’s just a beautiful setting,” he said, adding that his company had hopes of returning to the area for additional work in the future. The 902-foot semi-submersible heavy-lift ship’s itinerary will take the Polar Pioneer to Norway by following the American coastlines to the Strait of Magellan at the tip of South America before crossing the Atlantic.

Truck driver indicted in Morgan crash A GRAND JURY on Wednesday indicted a truck driver accused of crashing into a limo van last year on the New Jersey Turnpike, injuring comedian Tracy Morgan and killing one of his comic friends. The grand jury charged Kevin Roper with first-degree aggravated manslaughter, second- Morgan degree vehicular homicide and third-degree aggravated assault in the June 2014 crash. Roper’s attorney, David Glassman, was in court Tuesday arguing to have

the initial charges of vehicular homicide and assault by auto thrown out because of adverse publicity surrounding Morgan’s settlement of a lawsuit with Wal-Mart earlier this year. A judge tentatively set a date for early January to revisit the issue. Glassman said in an email Wednesday that the timing of the hearing would depend on how quickly he could review the grand jury transcripts. Roper, of Jonesboro, Ga., was driving a Wal-Mart truck when the crash occurred on the New Jersey Turnpike. He was not in court Wednesday, and an arraignment will be scheduled at a later date, said a spokesman for the prosecutor’s office. The crash killed comedian James McNair and seriously injured Morgan and others.

Morgan, a former “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live” star, suffered brain trauma, broken ribs and a broken leg. Glassman said he wasn’t surprised by the indictment after 18 months of negative pretrial publicity, the settlement, WalMart admitting “full responsibility before anyone walked into a courtroom” and the prosecutor permitting the National Transportation Safety Board “to pronounce [Roper] guilty in a public hearing.” “The real question is whether the prosecutor will be surprised in the event it is dismissed, for all the reasons set forth above,” Glassman wrote in an email. Glassman said last week that he faulted the Middlesex County prosecutor’s office for not stepping in and seeking a stay in the federal lawsuit.

Passings By The Associated Press

ARLIN ADAMS, 94, a longtime stalwart of the federal bench in Philadelphia who was considered at least twice for the U.S. Supreme Court, has died. A spokeswoman at Mr. Adams’ former law firm, Schnader Harrison Segal & Lewis, said Mr. Adams he died in 1990 Monday night. She did not immediately have any other details. Mr. Adams spent 18 years on the bench of the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia, retiring in 1987. He told The Associated Press in a 1990 interview that a high point in his career came when President Gerald Ford considered him for the U.S. Supreme Court in 1975. “I don’t think I was entitled to it,” Mr. Adams said. “There were many other lawyers and judges more qualified, I thought, and just being considered was honor enough.” He was one of two finalists but lost out to John Paul Stevens. Mr. Adams was also President Richard Nixon’s second choice for the high court in 1972, behind William H. Rehnquist, who went on to become chief justice. A lifelong Republican, Mr. Adams worked on Nixon’s successful presidential campaign in 1968. That led to his appeals court appointment. After retiring, Mr. Adams served as independent counsel in an investigation of the U.S. Department of Housing and

Urban Development that uncovered widespread corruption and won numerous convictions. He later served on various boards and wrote books on law and religion. Mr. Adams was born in Philadelphia and earned a law degree at University of Pennsylvania Law School in 1947.

_________ CHARLES F. HARRIS, 81, an editor and publisher who pushed commercial and academic presses to embrace black writers, explore black issues and court black readers, died Dec. 16 in New York City’s Manhattan. The cause was colon cancer, his son Francis said. Mr. Harris began his career in publishing at Doubleday & Co. in the mid-1950s, when black editors were rare and the prevailing notion in the book business was that, with few exceptions, writing by black authors or aimed at black readers belonged to a niche market that was at worst inconsequential and at best narrow and unprofitable. He spent much of his career defying that premise. From the early 1970s until the mid-1980s, Mr. Harris was the chief executive of Howard University Press, the first black university press in the country, where he published about 100 books, most in the social sciences and the humanities. In 1986, Mr. Harris ventured back into commercial publishing. He founded Amistad Press, which published a series of critical volumes on Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Wright and Alice Walker, among other black

writers, and works by contemporary black figures including the tennis champion Arthur Ashe, the longtime Democratic congressman from Missouri William L. Clay and the editor of Essence magazine, Susan L. Taylor. Mr. Harris sold Amistad to HarperCollins in 1999 and was editorial director of the imprint until 2003.

TODAY IS THURSDAY, Dec. 24, the 358th day of 2015. There are seven days left in the year. This is Christmas Eve. Today’s Highlight in History: ■ On Dec. 24, 1955, the Continental Air Defense Command Operations Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, found itself fielding phone calls from children wanting to know the whereabouts of Santa Claus after a newspaper ad mistakenly gave the Center’s number; the result was a tradition continued by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) of tracking Santa’s location the night before Christmas. On this date: ■ In 1851, fire devastated the

Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., destroying about 35,000 volumes. ■ In 1871, Giuseppe Verdi’s opera “Aida” had its world premiere in Cairo. ■ In 1914, during World War I, impromptu Christmas truces began to take hold along parts of the Western Front between British and German soldiers. ■ In 1939, Pope Pius XII delivered a Christmas Eve address in which he offered a five-point program for peace and denounced “premeditated aggressions.” ■ In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower supreme commander of Allied forces in

Europe as part of Operation Overlord. ■ In 1980, Americans remembered the U.S. hostages in Iran by burning candles or shining lights for 417 seconds — one second for each day of captivity. ■ In 1990, actor Tom Cruise married his “Days of Thunder” costar, Nicole Kidman, during a private ceremony at a Colorado ski resort; the marriage ended in 2001. ■ In 1995, fire broke out at the Philadelphia Zoo, killing 23 rare gorillas, orangutans, gibbons and lemurs. ■ Ten years ago: Iraq’s governing Shiite coalition called on Iraqis to accept results showing

the religious bloc leading in parliamentary elections and moved ahead with efforts to form a “national unity” government. ■ Five years ago: Pope Benedict XVI ushered in Christmas Eve with an evening Mass amid heightened security concerns following package bombings at two Rome embassies and Christmas Eve security breaches at the Vatican the previous two years. ■ One year ago: Sony Pictures broadly released “The Interview” online — an unprecedented counterstroke against the hackers who’d spoiled the Christmas opening of the comedy depicting the assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

A4 Briefly: Nation Nevada woman arraigned on murder charges LAS VEGAS — A woman accused of intentionally plowing a car carrying her child through crowds of pedestrians on a Las Vegas Strip sidewalk spent less than two minutes Wednesday getting arraigned on murder, hit-and-run and child abuse charges. Lakeisha Nicole Holloway, 24, pursed her lips and blinked as she was led in shackles into a courtroom. She was not asked to enter a plea Holloway but nodded to acknowledge that she understood she’ll remain in jail through the holidays while both sides investigate Sunday’s crash which killed one and injured dozens. Clark County District Attorney Steve Wolfson said outside court that the evidence he has seen is clear and that additional charges are likely, depending on the results of drug and alcohol tests and police findings. Those charges could include multiple counts of attempted murder with a deadly weapon.

Suit seeks return SAN DIEGO — Nearly 100 Mexicans ought to return to the United States by Wednesday’s

deadline under the terms of a lawsuit settlement. The suit filed in 2013 by the American Civil Liberties Union accused immigration officials in Southern California of failing to advise people of their rights. The ACLU claimed the Department of Homeland Security overused a procedure known as a voluntary return to expel people from the country. It prevents people from legally returning to the U.S. for up to 10 years. The government didn’t acknowledge wrongdoing in the settlement but agreed to changes that include a revised form that spells out consequences and options.

Jalil Ibn Ameer Aziz of Harrisburg pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy and trying to help a group designated by the U.S. government as a foreign terrorist organization. He faces up to 40 years if convicted of both counts. Aziz smiled at people who described themselves as family when he was brought to court in prison attire, shackled at the hands and feet.

Black Lives protest blocks shops, airport Delays follow demonstrators at Mall of America, terminals BY KYLE POTTER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MINNEAPOLIS — A large protest that started at the Mall of America quickly migrated Wednesday to Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, where demonstrators blocked roads and caused significant traffic delays. Airport officials said access to one of two terminals was blocked, which also caused backups on nearby roads. Some protesters took a lightrail train to the airport after the nation’s largest mall was closed by police.

Chanting protesters Hundreds of protesters with Black Lives Matter abruptly walked out of the suburban Minneapolis mall shortly after a rally

began Wednesday afternoon, chanting, “What do we want? Justice! When do we want it? Now!” Organizers were trying to draw attention to Jamar Clark, a 24-year-old black man who died last month after being shot by Minneapolis police responding to an assault complaint.

Stores closed up Stores closed their gates, kiosks were covered and even Santa left his sleigh shortly before protesters gathered at the massive shopping district on one of the busiest shopping days of the year. Numerous signs were posted on mall property that said no protests were allowed — including a long message on a screen in a central rotunda between two Christmas trees.

Police quickly closed the mall’s main entrances and urged onlookers out, threatening arrest, and protesters moved toward a lightrail train station that allowed quick access to the airport a few miles away. A similar demonstration at the mall last December drew hundreds of demonstrators angry over the absence of charges following the police killings of unarmed black men in New York City and Ferguson, Mo. Stores in the mall had to close, and dozens of people were arrested. The massive retail center in the Minneapolis suburb of Bloomington houses an amusement park and more than 500 shops spread across four floors, attracting shoppers from around the globe. Neither mall officials nor Bloomington police said what security measures they had put in place to prepare for the protest, though special event staff members were searching bags and stationed at every mall entrance.

Briefly: World Afghans rush troops to battle Taliban forces KABUL, Afghanistan — The Afghan military has rushed reinforcements to a southern district threatened for days with takeover by the Taliban, the country’s defense minister said Wednesday as he appealed for stepped-up NATO assistance and military support. In a besieged army base in the embattled district of Sangin, an Afghan soldier described a dire situation, saying a handful of Afghan troops inside were fighting to the last, trying to keep the Taliban out. As fighting in the Sangin district of southern Helmand province continued Wednesday, Afghan army and police arrived to help security forces pinned down for days in the besieged area, said the minister, Masoom Stanekzai. Stanekzai said that the country’s overstretched security forces need the international military coalition’s help, especially air support, which would help reduce casualties.

Accused Colo. shooter asks to defend himself in court BY SADIE GURMAN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The man who allegedly killed three people in an attack on a Colorado Planned Parenthood clinic halted court proceedings Wednesday by demanding that he be allowed to fire his public defender and represent himself. Robert Dear, 57, announced at a status hearing that he no longer wanted the Colorado public defender’s office to represent him. “I do not want them as my lawyers. I invoke my constitutional right to defend myself,” he said.

Quick Read

After Judge Gilbert Martinez advised Dear to trust his lawyer, Dear replied, “How can I trust my attorney when he said I’m incompetent in the newspaper?” Martinez then cleared the court so Dear could talk privately with his attorney, Daniel King. At a previous hearing, Dear repeatedly interrupted his own attorneys and accused them of conspiring with Planned Parenthood to cover up the reproductive health group’s wrongdoing. Dear faces 179 counts including first-degree murder, attempted murder and other charges stemming from the Nov. 27 attack on the clinic. At his prior court

appearance this month, Dear called himself “a warrior for the babies” and objected to sealing evidence in his case. Dear’s family and acquaintances describe him as a man with a violent temper, anti-government sentiments and longstanding disgust at those who provide abortion services. He spent most of his life in North and South Carolina before recently moving to an isolated community in Colorado’s mountains, where he lived in a trailer with no electricity. Authorities have revealed little about the preparations behind the attack.

A 70-YEAR-OLD DRIVER and her two 12-year-old passengers died when a passenger train hit their car on the tracks in Louisiana, state police said Wednesday. The other three people in the car — a man and two 12-year-old boys — were critically injured, police said, but none of the 119 passengers on the train was hurt in the crash Tuesday evening.

Twenty-one-year-old Oliver Lee of Queens was arraigned Wednesday on robbery, assault, weapons and other charges. He pleaded not guilty. A message left for the attorney representing Lee wasn’t returned. The shooting happened Tuesday at the crowded Roosevelt Field Mall in Garden City on Long Island. Officials say a gunshot went off in a luxury watch store as security guards attempted to apprehend Lee.

THE OWNER OF a leading Sudanese newspaper said authorities suspended his paper and charged him with spreading “false news” and undermining the state. Othman al-Marghani, the owner and editor-in-chief of daily al-Tayar, said he is due in court next week, along with journalist Ahmed Youssef al-Tay, the editor-in-chief of another paper who is facing the same charges. Under Sudanese law, such charges can carry the death penalty, life imprisonment, a fine or confiscation of a defendant’s entire property. However, journalists convicted of the charges are usually fined or jailed.

SYRIAN GOVERNMENT FORCES on Wednesday attacked a rebel-held town southwest of Damascus with artillery fire and helicopters dropped barrel bombs as opposition groups accused the government of using poison gas in an assault there the previous night. Five people, among them one civilian, died of suffocation following a missile attack Tuesday night, according to a media activist based in the town of Moadamiyeh. He said four missiles were fired from the nearby Mezze Air Base and struck at the same time as a barrel bomb attack, adding to the confusion. No other people have since been reported killed.

Nimitz to stay BREMERTON — The Navy says the USS Nimitz is going to stay in Bremerton instead of returning to its homeport in Everett. The Kitsap Sun reported that the Navy announced the change Tuesday, saying it was concerned about moving sailors back and forth between the two bases. The aircraft carrier arrived at the naval base in Bremerton on Jan. 13 for long-term maintenance. The Nimitz will join the USS John C. Stennis. It will be the first time two nuclear-powered aircraft carriers have been based in Bremerton. The 1,100-foot ship and its crew of nearly 3,000 have been regular visitors to Bremerton. Those sailors who stayed in Everett because a spouse has a job or they don’t want to pull kids out of school are faced with a two-hour commute each way. The Associated Press

Clallam County Administrator Jim Jones describes the work done on a recently completed rain garden on the Fourth Street side of the Clallam County Courthouse in Port Angeles on Wednesday. The project, which replaced a cluster of bushes and shrubs, is designed to collect and absorb rainwater and retard runoff into nearby Peabody Creek. The rain garden is part of a larger project that also included installation of porous asphalt in parts of the courthouse parking lot and a second rain garden on the east side of the courthouse complex. Three-fourths of the cost of the $333,000 project came from a state Department of Ecology grant.

Regulators allow limited ‘Ride the Ducks’ restart

PA council members are sworn in PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — Three Port Angeles City Council members were sworn in Wednesday. Re-elected Councilwomen Sissi Bruch and Cherie Kidd and newly elected Councilman Michael Merideth took their oaths of office at 11 a.m. at City Hall. Kidd, 69, begins her third term. A Port Angeles High School graduate and owner of AAA Affordable Storage and U-Haul, she defeated Dan Bateham in the Nov. 3 general election. She is a former Port Angeles mayor, the former chairwoman of the Port Angeles Planning Commission and a member of the Port Angeles Business Association, the Port Angeles Regional Chamber of Commerce and Soroptimist International.

Bruch, 54, begins a second four-year term on the City Council after running uncontested in November. Bruch is the Lower Elwha Klallam tribe’s senior planner. A former member of the city Planning Commission, she defeated incumbent and then-Deputy Mayor Don Perry in 2011. She unsuccessfully ran as a Democrat in November for West End Clallam County commissioner, losing to Republican Bill Peach. Merideth, 42, a truck driver, defeated Marolee Smith in the general election. The two political newcomers were running for the seat vacated by Mayor Dan Di Guilio, who decided not to run for re-election. The City Council’s first meeting of the year will be Jan. 5.

BY RACHEL LA CORTE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OLYMPIA — A Seattle tour company involved in a deadly crash in September must gain approval of a safety plan by the end of next month or else risk being put out of business, but in the meantime, Ride the Ducks of Seattle will be allowed to resume operating a limited fleet of its amphibious vehicles. After a three-hour hearing Monday, the threemember Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission approved a joint stipulation that allows the company to resume operations of its “Truck Duck” vehicles. “Truck Duck” vehicles have a different manufacturer, chassis and axle system than the “stretch duck” vehicle involved in the Sept. 24 wreck in which five international college students were killed when the repurposed military “duck boat” swerved into an oncoming charter bus on the Aurora Bridge, a sixlane span with no median barrier. The company’s operations were suspended by the commission days after the accident. “Our sole inquiry at this point is to determine whether an immediate danger to public safety still

Barred from road Stretch duck vehicles, like the one involved in the wreck, are still barred from the road until the company demonstrates that those vehicles pose no threat to public safety, he said. Ride the Ducks of Seattle owner Brian Tracey told the commission that he doesn’t have a timeframe on when the 10 vehicles could be on the road, saying that drivers will need to be retrained and he wants to “make sure everything we’re doing is perfectly buttoned down before we’re up and running again.” Under the agreement, the company must submit a safety plan and have it approved by Jan. 29. If their plan is accepted, the company’s safety rating will be upgraded from “unsatisfactory” to conditional, contingent on follow-up investigations.

Republicans surrender to dark side SINCE NEARLY EVERYONE else seems to be employing “Star Wars” metaphors these days, permit me to use some of my own. To conservatives, the Cal Republican Thomas congressional majority was supposed to be the good side of “The Force,” as opposed to what they regard as the Democratic “dark side.” And yet, unlike the film, “dark side” Democrats have triumphed again in the latest budget battle, which was no battle at all. The supposed good guys surrendered without a fight against the relentless onslaught of the Democrat “stormtroopers” and their media enablers. The monstrous $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill passed by

the Republican majority House and Senate was praised by President Barack Obama, who called House Speaker Paul Ryan to congratulate him for making government “work.” It’s working for Democrats, but not for Republicans, or the country, as the national debt marches toward $20 trillion. Republicans have their biggest congressional majority since the Civil War, but behave as if they are powerless. They live in fear of a government “shutdown” for which they believe they will be blamed by the media and by voters. Is it any wonder Donald Trump is the leading Republican presidential candidate? This bill represents not only what people hate about Washington; it’s what they hate about the misnamed Republican “leadership.” Voices on the right, from Rush Limbaugh, to Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), are calling the spending bill a “betrayal.” Voters in two previous elec-

tions put Republicans in power and increased their margins for the express purpose of reversing, or at least halting, the unpopular policies of Obama. A Democrat majority could not have done better. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) almost developed a personality in his response to the Republican capitulation. Reid said Senate Democrats had three goals: “We wanted to get rid of sequestration, we were able to do that. “We wanted to make sure there is parity between defense and the middle class, we wanted to make sure that we kept these poison pills off the legislation. “All three goals we had, we accomplished.” Reid also bragged about beating back GOP efforts, later abandoned, to defund Planned Parenthood and to tighten rules for accepting refugees, or as Democrats believe, future Democratic voters. A giddy Sen. Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said: “If you would have

told me this year that we’d be standing here celebrating the passage of an omnibus bill with no poison pill riders at higher [spending] levels above sequester than even the president requested, I wouldn’t have believed it. “But here we are. This bill is a great victory for the principles Democrats stand for.” Demonstrating again how out of touch he is with voter sentiment, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell spoke in a radio address about process, not substance: “We got committees working again, just like we promised. “We opened up the legislative process, just like we promised.” Who cares about that when Republicans are losing the policy debate to the minority? Republicans failed to keep far more significant promises, like defunding Obamacare and rolling back the president’s agenda. On his radio program last Thursday, Rush Limbaugh said, “There is no Republican Party.

You know, we don’t even need a Republican Party if they’re gonna do this . . . just elect Democrats, disband the Republican Party and let the Democrats run it, because that’s what is happening anyway.” Maybe it’s time the “Grand Old Party” was retired and replaced by a grand NEW party. This GOP is rapidly going the way of the 19th-century Whig Party, which the Republicans replaced in time for the election of Abraham Lincoln. “The Force” is no longer with today’s Republicans, who have given in to the Democrats’ dark side.

age professionals and business investors to move here as well. Just ask your real estate agent or organizations like Olympic Medical Center or our chamber of commerce. One of the first consider-

ations of families moving into Sequim is the quality of our schools because they reflect the care of the people who live here. We don’t need a fancy new stadium, and this bond does not provide for one, but

we definitely need safe, adequate space and an improved learning environment with updated technology for our schools. This bond will fund a new elementary school, increase the capacity of

Greywolf Elementary School, add science and general education classrooms at Sequim High School, repurpose Helen Haller Elementary School for use by Olympic Peninsula Academy and modernize the district base kitchen adjoining the old 1948 community school, which will be demolished. Now is the time to put these projects in motion because they will only cost more in the future, and we need them now. Plan to give our schoolchildren and our community a wonderful holiday gift. Please plan to vote yes on the Sequim school bond in February. Dick Hughes, Sequim Hughes is past president of the Sequim Education Foundation, Sequim Free Clinic and Rotary Club of Sequim.

Dream to nightmare: 28 years in jail AS DUSK SETTLED over Denver on Dec. 22, the first day of winter, Clarence Moses-EL walked out of the county jail, free for the first time in 28 years. The shortest day of the Amy year would be the end of the Goodman longest nightmare of his life. It was all because of a dream. Moses-EL was charged with rape in 1987. Initially, the rape victim named the three men she had been drinking with as her possible attackers. Then, a day and a half later, she dreamed that her neighbor, Clarence Moses-EL, was the attacker. She told the police, and they arrested him. The three men she first named were never investigated. There was no physical evidence linking Moses-EL to the crime. The dream was the only piece of “evidence” offered against him.

There was, however, real evidence available to the prosecution: the victim’s rape kit, along with bedsheets and the victim’s clothing. These items were never tested for DNA. In 1995, after years in prison, Moses-EL won a court order mandating the forensic analysis of the evidence, which could have freed him. He managed to raise $1,000 from fellow inmates to pay for the tests. The judge instructed the Denver Police to turn over the evidence. The police marked the evidence box “Do Not Destroy,” then, inexplicably, threw it into a dumpster. “I literally broke down in the cell,” he said. “I was blown away. Broken,” Moses-EL told Denver Post investigative journalists Susan Greene and Miles Moffeit in 2007. “They broke their own rules and threw out the only key to my freedom.” Greene and Moffeit wrote about Moses-EL and other prisoners across the U.S. who had potentially exculpatory DNA evidence destroyed.

They were finalists for the Pulitzer Prize for their series “Trashing the Truth.” Greene has since become the editor of The Colorado Independent news website, and has never stopped reporting on Moses-EL’s case. Clarence Moses-EL languished in prison until, in 2012, he received a handwritten letter from another Colorado prisoner, L.C. Jackson. Jackson was one of the three men initially named as a suspect by the rape victim, until she gave Moses-EL’s name following her dream. Jackson wrote: “I really don’t know what to say to you. But let’s start by bringing what was done in the dark into the light. “I have a lot on my heart. I don’t know who’s working on this. But have them come up and see me. It’s time. I’ll be waiting.” Jackson is serving two life sentences for a double rape of a mother and her 9-year-old daughter, a crime which bore many similarities to the rape for which Moses-EL was convicted. Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey sat on Jackson’s confession for close to two years. Moses-EL and his legal team

were eventually able to obtain a court hearing to introduce Jackson’s confession and other new evidence. Two weeks ago, a Colorado judge vacated Moses-EL’s convictions, ordering the DA to either retry the case or drop the charges. At a bond hearing on Tuesday, the DA asked for a trial date, which the judge set for June. Several hours later, Moses-EL walked out of prison, no longer incarcerated, but still not truly free. Mitch Morrissey is stepping down as district attorney after 10 years in office. So far, two of the candidates who are running to replace him, Beth McCann and Michael Carrigan, have said they would drop all charges against Moses-EL, should either win the November election. As he walked out of the Denver jail, Moses-EL told the gathered media: “It’s wonderful. I waited a long time for this.” When asked what kept him going all those years in prison, he replied, “My spirituality, and my innocence.” Clarence Moses-EL expresses no vindictiveness.

At a small celebration at a supporter’s home that followed his release, Moses-EL said: “There’s still some days in front of me. “I know things are going to turn out in my favor. I never doubted, even though I felt like at times I was under a ton of bricks, couldn’t breathe.” Clarence Moses-EL is eager to get to work, to give back. “I want to be instrumental in the community, in programs, wherever I could be to share my experience, my wisdom, my talent, my creativity.” Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey says he represents the people. Now is the time for the people of Denver to demand that the charges be dropped against Clarence Moses-EL.

Airlines prep: More flights, bigger planes BY DAVID KOENIG THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DALLAS — Airlines are shifting the timing of thousands of flights, even adding dozens of redeyes, as they try to avoid delays while hauling millions of passengers from now through the Christmas weekend. Success or failure could all depend on the weather, and Mother Nature isn’t making it easy on airlines. Rain and fog in the Northeast caused nearly 200 flight delays Wednesday morning in Boston, New York and Washington — the

busiest part of the country’s airspace. Rain in Chicago and Atlanta caused some delays in those cities too. Severe storms that ripped through Mississippi and Alabama, however, had little impact on air travel because no major airports are in those states.

16 cancellations There were about 600 delays and 16 cancellations by noon, according to flight tracking site FlightAware. More than 21,000 flights were scheduled for Wednes-

Airlines expect about 38 million passengers over a 17-day period spanning Christmas and New Year’s, an increase of about 3 percent, according to an industry trade group, Airlines for America. The group said the average flight could be 90 percent full.

Details behind river changes

Boe knows soccer

WHEN THE LAST names of area fishing guides are easy to spot on the high school basketball roster, you know Forks is a town with a passion for the finned set. Such is the case for this Michael year’s Spartans with names like Carman Kratzer and Leons part of the team. Bob Kratzer of Anglers Guide Service (360374-3148) in Forks is part of the North Coast Steelhead Advisory group. That group, comprised of a diverse range of fishing interests, met in person in Poulsbo on a weekly basis from late July through the fall to whittle down a list of publicly sourced rule change proposals. They eventually offered three multi-faceted changes to North Coast river fishing that were approved by the state Fish and Wildlife Commission earlier this month.

Advisory group still active “There were 147 rules proposals just for the North Olympic Peninsula,” said Kratzer. Kratzer has guided anglers on the West End, the Columbia River and in Alaska for 31 years, and also serves as a member of the state Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Steelhead/Cutthroat Policy Advisory Group. “They formed the committee to do two things: look at all the rules, narrow them down from the 147, and the long-term process is it’s still an existing group to look at longterm management.” Kratzer was relieved to find some common ground on the North Coast Steelhead Advisory Group. “Nobody wanted to shut everything down, but we were far apart when we started,” Kratzer said. “Some of the people wanted some really, really heavy major restrictions.” Kratzer said the easiest decision was prohibiting fishing from floating devices equipped with internal combustion engines. “Essentially, this makes it a driftboat only fishery,” Kratzer said. “The terrain of these rivers doesn’t really support jet boats, but we also wanted to limit the number of encounters from those who use a kicker motor and fish some spots and then run back up through the holes.” Requiring the use of barbless hooks on North Coast rivers had more debate but also was quickly agreed upon. So, too, was the proposal to end wild steelhead and rainbow trout retention on the North Olympic Peninsula. “I have a really good relationship with the Quileute tribe, and I went to them with the idea, and their recommendation was not to do that,” Kratzer said. “They thought there was plenty of fish for harvest, so I personally did not recommend it as it might screw up the management, might screw up the allocations, and things could go in either direction.” Recreational anglers have voiced concern since the adoption of the rule changes that tribal harvesters may feel less of a need to abide by their previous share. At least one North Olympic Peninsula tribe appears willing to hold back. “The Quileute tribe did not tell me that,” Kratzer said of increasing their harvest. “They did not say they would take those fish if you don’t.” Another Forks-based guide and member of the North Coast Steelhead Advisory Group said he’s heard positive comments from his customers since the changes were approved.

Neah Bay’s Cole Svec was voted to the All-State first team offense by The Associated Press.

SEATTLE — Five North Olympic Peninsula high school football players have been voted to the Class 1B All-State team by The Associated Press. The Peninsula also had many players in the 2A, 1A and 1B classifications receive honorable mention when The Associated Press announced its All-State teams Wednesday. Neah Bay junior running Cole Svec, who was the 1B Player of the Year in 2014, was picked for the first-team offense in voting done by sports writers and editors from throughout the state. Svec ran for 1,337 yards and 24 touchdowns on 119 carries

this season. He also returned two kicks for scores and caught a TD pass.

Two-way standout Svec also received honorable mention for the defensive team for his play as a linebacker. This is Svec’s third consecutive year receiving All-State honors from The Associated Press. As a freshman in 2013, he was on the second-team defense as a defensive back. This season, he moved between defensive back and linebacker.

Quilcene sweeps Loggers in doubleheader BY LEE HORTON MICHAEL CARMAN

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

QUILCENE — For the second time this season, Quilcene swept a basketball doubleheader against Crescent. The Rangers won Tuesday’s boys game 49-42, and the Quilcene girls defeated the Loggers 52-18. Despite the lopsided score, coach Chris Ferrier was happy with how the Crescent girls played. “We played our best game overall of the season yet,” Ferrier said. “We cut down on turnovers and got more shots than turn-

overs, which is a first for us. “We are starting to make more shots as the season gets longer, and the improvements are evident.” Rangers coach Briana Weller notices the growth in Crescent since the two teams’ earlier meeting this season. “The Loggers are getting better. Their coaching staff and girls are working hard,” Weller said. “Those girls have already improved since we saw them back on Dec. 11.” TURN

Preps: Forks wrestlers win at Mount Baker CONTINUED FROM B1 Senior Megan Weller, who reached 1,000 points in her career Monday, led Quilcene on Tuesday with 25 points. Allison Jones added 15 points for the Rangers, and Hannah Williams finished with four points. Four others scored two apiece as Quilcene was able to use its bench and give chunks of playing time to many of its less-experienced players. “It was really great to see all the girls get lots of game time minutes. Getting these kids game exposure is how they get better,” Briana Weller said. Ferrier appreciated the way Weller coached Tuesday’s game against the young and inexperienced Loggers.. “Also want to add that Coach Weller is an absolute class act,” Ferrier said.

“The way she manages a game that looks like a blowout . . . it was a competitive ball game even though we can’t score very easily.” Quilcene (3-4) and Crescent (0-8) both play their next games against Clallam Bay (8-1).

Taylar Clark picked up a hat trick for Port Angeles and Boe notched an assist in the Riders’ first win over the Eagles in 15 seasons. “Beating Klahowya was one of the bigger moments of the year,” Boe said. “We hadn’t had much success against them, so beating them was a really satisfying feeling.” Moseley said it will be tough to find a replacement for Boe next season. “We will miss her leadership and her all-around

DEAR ABBY: My 7-year-old daughter, “Rosie,” recently came home in tears because a classmate, “Emily,” told her I was a liar and she was an idiot for believing my lies. Then Rosie asked me if I had been the one putting money under her pillow and presents under the tree all along. Ultimately, I told her that, yes, I had. But I stressed how important it was that she not ruin other kids’ belief in the tooth fairy, etc. The cat is out of the bag for my child, but do you think I should mention this to Emily’s mother? We are friendly, but not close. She lives near me, so I run into her often. I’m not just upset that Emily told Rosie, but also that she was so rude. I don’t want that girl to do this to more kids. It’s not about criticizing the mother’s parenting skills. My kids need correction sometimes, too. I just believe it takes a village and we should all work together as parents. What are your thoughts?

Alcohol has zero appeal for me and, Van Buren as I’m in my mid20s, it’s difficult for me to go on outings with friends without having to go to a bar. I become that grumpy, silent person in the corner. Because of this, my fiancee has begun socializing with her family and our friends without me. Most recently, they celebrated a sibling’s 21st birthday and left me home alone across the country. Talking to her and knowing she’s at a bar and drinking makes me extremely angry, and we almost always end up in a fight about it. I know this is my problem. Do you have any advice on getting over it? Doesn’t Touch the Stuff in Las Vegas

Abigail

Dear Doesn’t Touch: Yes. Either get counseling for your issues and to help you recognize that not everyone who enjoys an alcoholic beverage is an alcoholic, or find a woman to marry whose views more closely match your own. There is a support group called Adult Children of Alcoholics that might be helpful to you if you attend some meetings. You can find a group near you by going to www.adultchildren.org.

Dear Abby: I have an extreme aversion to alcohol and those who consume it. I suspect that it comes from having a father who was a violent, emotionally abusive alcoholic. by Brian Basset

DEAR ABBY

Dear Cat’s Out: It’s a shame that your daughter got the news the way she did. But in situations like this, when one child knows something the others don’t, it’s not unusual for the child to share the “news.” Emily was out of line to have said what she did to your daughter, particularly in saying that she couldn’t trust you, because it could have farreaching implications. By all means have a word with Emily’s mother.

Check vital signs of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;04 Nissan Dear Doctor: I have a 2004 Nissan Xterra, and my â&#x20AC;&#x153;service engineâ&#x20AC;? light is on. The scanner says the No. 2 cylinder misfires and is running rough. I changed all of the wires, checked the coil and changed the fuel injector for that cylinder. What am I missing? Giuseppe Dear Giuseppe: The first step is to check all of the vital signs. Look for a vacuum leak, especially at the hoses that are around the cylinder in question. Next, do a simple compression test. If compression is good, then check the fuel delivery, including injector pulse time on. The computer is in charge of the on/off time of the fuel injector, and each injector has its own circuit. Also, there could be a mechanical problem that is causing the â&#x20AC;&#x153;service engineâ&#x20AC;? light to remain on.

No compass, GPS Dear Doctor: I have a 2010 Toyota Avalon with 45,400 miles. It did not come with a compass on the rearview mirror or a GPS system. My children have offered to have both items installed by an accessory installation center. Would this cause harm to my car in any way? I am 82 years old and the only driver of the car. Vicky Dear Vicky: Aftermarket products, such as a GPS system and mirror compass, and backup cameras are all great if you have a need for them. I see no disadvantage to you or your car by getting this equipment installed.
