County hires special attorney Lawyer to help resolve dispute with treasurer

BY ROB OLLIKAINEN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — Clallam County has hired a special attorney to help resolve an ongoing conflict among elected officials.

Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to appoint Olympia lawyer Dale Kamerrer as a neutral attorney who will review accusations from Treasurer Selinda Barkhuis that the board has fostered a hostile work environment.

No claim for damages or litigation has been filed.

The amount Kamerrer will be paid will be negotiated by Prosecuting Attorney Mark Nichols.

“The manner, mode, form and content of the advice that he provides to the organization has yet to be determined,” Nichols told commissioners.

“That’s something that he’ll develop after he reviews the record.”

Commissioner Mike Chapman

called for a full investigation into Barkhuis’ “very serious allegations.”

“I welcome it,” Chapman said.

“I want to know what we’re doing wrong. I’ll apologize if I’m doing something [wrong], but we’ve got to be investigated.”

Accusations against other elected officials have triggered past investigations, Chapman said.

“We need someone to let us know what, if anything, we’re doing wrong to create such a hostile work environment,” he added.

“That’s what I’m being told by one elected official, that this is a hostile work environment with harassment, threats and retaliation to the point where she can’t even meet with one commissioner

and the auditor in a statutorily authorized meeting.”

Barkhuis has canceled a March 10 county finance committee meeting that was key to the board’s consideration of a Carlsborg sewer construction contract and an Opportunity Fund grant to help reopen the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center.

Chapman has said he would not vote to approve the sewer contract or SARC grant until the finance committee recommends such action by majority vote.

Commissioners Bill Peach and

Mark Ozias also have requested a financial analysis of the projects but have not spoken in public meetings about whether they would vote on the contracts without it.

Barkhuis, who chairs the finance committee, announced that the meeting was off in a Feb. 17 email to the board.

“Until such time as the commissioners have adequately addressed and resolved their own staff and fund management issues, I will refrain from putting myself in situations (including chairing the finance committee meetings) that are likely to provoke further acts of intimidation and retaliation against me,” Barkhuis wrote.

Louie Rychlik, right, is congratulated Tuesday by Bill Littlejohn, chairman of the Citizen of the Year committee, after being named the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce’s 2015 Citizen of the Year.

SEQUIM — On four yellow pieces of notebook paper, Louie Rychlik had penned his acceptance speech.

It featured one sentence: “I don’t walk on water.”

Clearly, he is a man who prefers action to words.

On Tuesday, the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce honored Rychlik, a longtime businessman and volunteer, with its 2015 Citizen of the Year award.

Owner of Louie’s Well Drilling of Port Angeles, Rychlik gained kudos from the organization thanks to his philanthropic and volunteer endeavors throughout the community.

He aided the Sequim Museum & Arts Center addition of an elevator at the Dungeness Schoolhouse, the city of Sequim’s Music in the Park series, local Sequim festivals, construction of a BMX track and various other community efforts.

serving as interim chief, has been the city’s top cop for 8½ years.

But all that police experience doesn’t mean crime can’t hit home.

“If you are smarter than me, it’s less likely you will be a crime victim,” the Port Angeles native quipped during a presentation to two dozen meeting participants.

“Most cars that get broken into do not get broken into at all; they just open the door and take your stuff,” said Gallagher, 62.

“What we tell people is, ‘Just lock your car, and the crime rate would go down dramatically.’ ” The car-prowl rate sped north last year, hitting 330 incidents by Nov. 17 after an average of 155 a year from 2011-14.

But overall, crime in the city has gone down incrementally year after year, Gallagher said at the meeting.

“We are not going to hell in a handbasket, with the exception of vehicle prowls,” he said.

Gallagher was puzzled over that increase, speculating it might be driven by drugs — heroin use in particular.

Gallagher acknowledged the country has an addiction problem, with an overall drug and alcohol dependency rate of 10 percent.

“I would expect to see it reflected here,” Gallagher said later.

Juvenile addicts go through treatment an average of three Port Angeles Police Chief times before it works, he said.

DOUGLAS SLOCOMBE, 103, a chameleonic British cinematographer who filmed the Nazi invasion of Poland, the adventures of “Indiana Jones” and the madcap farce of Ealing comedies, has died.

His daughter, Georgina Slocombe, said Mr. Slocombe died early Monday in a London hos- Mr. Slocombe pital. A in 2011 recent fall led to setbacks that ended with his death, she said.

Mr. Slocombe was one of British cinema’s most acclaimed cinematographers.

He shot some 80 films, working with directors as varied as George Cukor, John Huston, Norman Jewison and Roman Polanski.

His career began with the famed Ealing black comedies of the late 1940s and early ’50s, and ended with three “Indiana Jones” films for Steven Spielberg.

The London-born, France-raised Mr. Slocombe was nominated for three Academy Awards and won three from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts for 1974’s “The Great Gatsby,” 1963’s “The Servant” and 1977’s “Julia.”

The British Society of Cinematographers gave him a lifetime achievement award in 1995.

While in his 20s, Mr. Slocombe documented Germany’s 1939 Polish invasion as a newsreel cameraman.

His footage was used in Herbert Kline’s documentary “Lights Out in Europe.”

After the war, he became the house cinematographer for Ealing Studios, lensing many of its classic comedies, such as “Kind Hearts and Coronets,” “The Man in the White Suit” and “The Lavender Hill Mob.” Following Ealing’s

demise, Mr. Slocombe signed on to a number of CinemaScope releases, such as “A High Wind in Jamaica” and “Guns at Batasi.”

Other credits through the ’60s and ’70s included “The Lion in Winter,” “The Italian Job” and “Rollerball.”

Later, Spielberg, for whom Mr. Slocombe shot scenes of “Close Encounters of the Third Kind,” enlisted him for “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” as well as two “Indiana Jones” sequels.

His last film was 1989’s “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.”

_________ SONNY JAMES, 87, a country singer who recorded romantic ballads like “Young Love” and turned pop songs into country hits, has died.

Mr. James, whose given name was James Loden, died Monday in a Nashville, Tenn., hospice facility, Mr. James according to in 2007 a family friend, Gary Robble, who was the lead singer of Mr. James’ backing band, the Southern Gentlemen.

In 1956, Mr. James scored his biggest hit, “Young Love,” which sold 3 million copies and became a No. 1 hit on the country and pop charts.

A decade later, he started an impressive run on top of the country charts

with 16 consecutive No. 1 songs between 1967 and 1971.

His other hits included “It’s the Little Things,” “You’re the Only World I Know,” “I’ll Never Find Another You,” “Empty Arms,” “Behind the Tear,” “Take Good Care of Her,” “When the Snow Is on the Roses,” “That’s Why I Love You Like I Do” and “Here Comes Honey Again.”

A4 Briefly: Nation Still no motive in Kalamazoo shooting spree KALAMAZOO, Mich. — As details emerge about the night authorities say Jason Dalton has admitted gunning down six randomly chosen victims in and around Kalamazoo — attacks apparently carried out over hours during which he also ferried passengers around town as an Uber driver — any hint as to why remains stubbornly elusive.

A prosecutor said Monday that Dalton picked up fares for the ride-hailing service after the first shooting Saturday that left a Dalton woman seriously wounded and probably got more riders after the two subsequent shootings that proved fatal.

But none of the shootings appeared to be connected to fares.

Uber officials acknowledged the company received complaints about Dalton’s erratic driving that day and said that company policy is to contact the driver when alerted to unsafe driving.

But they would not say whether anyone at the company spoke to Dalton.

Dalton, meanwhile, appeared briefly in court by video link and

was charged with six counts of murder, which carry a mandatory life sentence.

A judge denied bail for the 45-year-old former insurance adjuster, who Kalamazoo police Detective Cory Ghiringhelli told the court had admitted to investigators “that he took people’s lives.”

The admission seemed only to deepen the mystery of what was behind the killings of six people with no apparent connection to the gunman.

Police and prosecutors acknowledge a motive might never be fully known.

Possible Zika cases NEW YORK — U.S. health officials are investigating more than a dozen possible Zika infections that might have been spread through sex.

The 14 cases all involve men who visited areas with Zika outbreaks and who might have infected their female sex partners, who had not traveled.

Zika virus is mainly spread by mosquito bites. But there have been at least two reported cases of sexual transmission, including a recent case in Texas.

On Tuesday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the 14 cases include two pregnant women whose infections have been confirmed. Tests are pending for their male partners.

Zika virus causes — at worst — only mild symptoms in most people. But in Brazil, health officials have reported an apparent link between Zika infection and a rare birth defect.

Obama: Guantanamo Bay must be closed

BY LOLITA C. BALDOR AND KATHLEEN HENNESSEY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama’s plan to close the detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, slammed into a wall of Republican opposition Tuesday, stopping cold Obama’s hope for a bipartisan effort to “close a chapter” that began in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

The long-awaited proposal, which was requested by Congress, is Obama’s last attempt to make good on an unfulfilled campaign promise by persuading Congress to change the law that prohibits moving detainees accused of violent extremist acts to U.S. soil.

Fourteen years after the facility opened and seven years after Obama took office, the president argued it was “finally” time to shutter a facility that has sparked persistent legal battles, become a recruitment tool for Islamic militants and garnered strong opposition from some allies abroad.

“I don’t want to pass this problem on to the next president, whoever it is,” Obama said in an

appearance at the White House.

“If we don’t do what’s required now, I think future generations are going to look back and ask why we failed to act when the right course, the right side of history, and justice and our best American traditions was clear.”

Despite the big ambitions, Obama’s proposed path remained unclear.

Politically thorny question The plan leaves unanswered the politically thorny question of where in the U.S. a new facility would be located.

It offered broad cost estimates.

The White House described it as more of a conversation starter than a definitive outline.

Republican leaders in Congress showed no interest in having that conversation.

“We will review President Obama’s plan, but since it includes bringing dangerous terrorists to facilities in U.S. communities, he knows that the bipartisan will of Congress has already been expressed against that proposal,” said Senate Majority Leader

Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., said Obama had yet to convince Americans that moving detainees to U.S. soil is “smart or safe.”

“It is against the law — and it will stay against the law,” Ryan said.

Even Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., a former prisoner of war and an advocate of closing the prison, called Obama’s report a “vague menu of options,” which does not include a policy for dealing with future detainees.

Obama has “missed a major chance to convince the Congress and the American people that he has a responsible plan to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility,” he said.

It’s not clear whether that chance ever existed. Momentum to close the facility has slowed dramatically under Obama’s tenure.

Congress remains deadlocked on far less contentious matters, and the issue has little resonance on the presidential campaign trail.

Briefly: World Italian PM Renzi won’t fight for gay adoptions ROME — Bowing to fierce opposition, Italy’s Premier Matteo Renzi will drop a proposed measure that would have let gays adopt the biological children of their partners.

A Democratic Party official, Lorenzo Guerini, said party senators at an assembly Tuesday decided it was best to remove Renzi the heavily contested adoption language from the proposed law to allow civil unions, but not marriage, for homosexual couples.

Such unions would carry benefits like receiving deceased partners’ pensions.

Pro-Vatican lawmakers in Renzi’s party as well as a key coalition center-right partner had vowed to vote against the bill unless the adoption provision was jettisoned.

“Between ‘everything never’ and ‘nothing today,’ it’s better to do a little piece now” of the family law reforms, Renzi said in a radio interview ahead of the Democrats’ discussion on strategy to overcome an impasse in the Senate.

Renzi said he hoped the Senate would approve the revamped

bill later this week.

The bill also needs to pass in the lower Chamber of Deputies.

Swedish teen rescued IRBIL, Iraq — Iraqi Kurdish authorities said Tuesday their troops rescued a Swedish teenager from the Islamic State group near the extremist-controlled city of Mosul earlier this month, while a local TV station broadcast an interview with the girl in which she described how she came with her boyfriend to Iraq last year.

A statement from the regional government said the rescue operation by the Kurdish anti-terrorist forces took place Feb. 17 near Mosul, 225 miles northwest of the Iraqi capital, Baghdad.

The statement identified the young woman by name, saying the 16-year-old from the Swedish town of Boras “was misled” by an Islamic State group member in Sweden to travel to Syria and later to Mosul.

Swedish authorities and the teenager’s family had contacted the Iraqi Kurdish government and asked for help in locating and rescuing the girl from ISIS, the statement also said.

It added that the young woman was currently in Iraqi Kurdish territory and was being “provided the care afforded to her under international law,” adding that she will be “transferred to Swedish authorities to return home once necessary arrangements” are made.

SEARCHING

FOR CLUES

Emergency services look for evidence at the wreck of a commuter train which derailed near Dalfsen, Netherlands, on Tuesday. The train derailed after slamming into a crane which was crossing the tracks early Tuesday in the eastern Netherlands, killing one person and injuring six others, local emergency services said. The accident left the train’s four carriages lying on their sides on or near the rails outside the town of Dalfsen, 78 miles east of Amsterdam.

Syria government, opposition accept proposed truce deal

BY ALBERT AJI AND BASSEM MROUE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DAMASCUS, Syria — Syria’s government accepted Tuesday a proposed U.S.-Russian cease-fire that is to go into effect later this week, reserving the right to respond to any violations of the truce, while the main opposition and rebel umbrella group approved the deal but set its own conditions for compliance.

The development followed an agreement between Washington and Moscow for a new cease-fire for Syria that would take effect at midnight Friday local time, even as major questions over enforcement of that truce remain unresolved.

Quick Read

Also, the truce will not cover the Islamic State group, Syria’s al-Qaida branch known as the Nusra Front or any other militia designated as a terrorist organization by the U.N. Security Council.

But exactly where along Syria’s complicated front lines the fighting would stop and where counterterrorism operations could continue under the truce is still to be addressed.

In addition, the five-page plan released by the U.S. State Department leaves open how cease-fire breaches would be dealt with.

Syria’s Foreign Ministry said it accepts the proposed truce but that its operations will continue against ISIS, al-Qaida’s branch in Syria and “other terrorist groups.”

It also stresses the right of its armed forces “to retaliate against any violation carried out by these groups.”

Cabinet minister Ali Haidar said the government will in principle respect the cease-fire, though he could not “speak on behalf of the armed groups.”

“Violations will happen from other parties and not from the Syrian state’s side,” Haider told The Associated Press after talks in Damascus with Peter Maurer, the president of the International Committee of the Red Cross.

The main umbrella for Syrian opposition and rebel groups, the High Negotiations Committee, gave a conditional approval late Monday.

Under the settlement, the title of impressionist Camille Pissarro’s 1886 “Shepherdess Bringing in Sheep” will be transferred to Léone Meyer, a French Holocaust survivor whose father owned the painting when it was stolen, her New York attorney, Pierre Ciric, told The Associated Press. The painting will be displayed at the university’s Fred Jones Jr. Museum of Art in Norman and French museum.

A CAMPAIGN TO increase diversity in the ranks of the Chicago Police Department has resulted in a 13 percentage point jump in minority applicants, the department said in an announcement emphasizing its efforts to restore frayed trust with the black community.

About 70 percent of the 14,000 would-be officers in a recent pool of applicants are black, Hispanic or Asian, the department said in Monday’s news release.

Recruiters visited churches, schools and community events, and the department produced ads in Spanish as well as English.

A MOTHER GORILLA and her baby are doing fine in a British zoo after a very rare delivery by emergency cesarean surgery.

The infant was born 11 days ago by surgical intervention after the mother showed signs of a potentially life-threatening illness. Bristol Zoo officials said Tuesday the as-yet unnamed female baby needed help breathing at first but is now doing well and being treated around-the-clock by experienced gorilla keepers. The baby’s mother, Kera, is also recovering.

The baby was delivered by Prof.

David Cahill, a gynecologist experienced at delivering human babies by cesarean.

JOYCE — Students attending Crescent School got an unexpected holiday Tuesday after a water main beneath the athletic field broke and began gushing water.

School is expected to be in session today barring unforeseen circumstances, said Clayton Mork, Crescent School District superintendent.

Robocall message In the unlikely case water pressure is not restored in time for school today, “we will send out a message via our robocalls” no later than 6 a.m. to alert parents not to bring their children to school, Mork said.

About 400,000 gallons of water flowed from the broken pipe after it broke early Tuesday morning, said Connie Beauvais, manager of the Crescent Water Association, which owns and operates that portion of pipeline.

Crews were on scene throughout the day to disconnect the pipe and connect a bypass around it to the school’s water system, she said.

SEQUIM — A plan is in place for the city’s flagship park, Carrie Blake Park, but with it comes a lot of variables.

City Council members approved the Carrie Blake Community Park Master Plan on Monday 6-0 with Councilman John Miller absent.

It includes development plans for Carrie Blake Park’s 22.42-acre parcel and the Water Reuse Demonstration Site’s 28.85-acre parcel.

Projects range from restructuring the entrance to Carrie Blake Park and constructing new roads to installing a playground by the holding pond in the Water Reuse site.

Sequim Parks Manager Joe Irvin said the plan doesn’t propose allocating funds or set a specific timeline but recommends a hierarchy for projects and what should be constructed together to save costs.

Among the top priorities are widening and laying down new asphalt for the Olympic Discovery Trail, continuing maintenance on the Albert Haller Playfields, installing new vege-

“We are hooking the school up to a newer . . . existing main so that we don’t disturb the track any more than the line that broke underneath it.”

CONNIE BEAUVAIS manager, Crescent Water Association about three surrounding homes also without service.

She estimated it would cost less than $1,500 in total to complete the project.

Low pressure

Mork said he noticed the lack of water pressure at the school at about 6:30 a.m.

“There was still water coming out of the tap,” but at an extremely low rate, he said.

“We did notice that there was a lot of gurgling water coming up through the field and under the track close to the highway before school started, and we had water association people at the scene.

They were still assessing it.”

Mork said he waited until about 8:15 a.m. to New line close school.

Costs of proposals The new master plan lists all of the existing and proposed projects in the park that would cost an estimated $32.4 million today, but Irvin said proposed projects come to about $19.8 million.

“Historically, the city of Sequim has partnered with various groups,” City Manager Charlie Bush said.

Councilman Ted Miller said a majority of users of city parks come from Clallam County.

“We need to work hard to get some county funding for some of this effort,” he said.

Possibly the biggest change to users that is out-

lined in the Carrie Blake Master Plan is shifting the entrance to the parks.

A south entrance between the skate park and Trinity United Methodist Church would connect to North Rhodefer Road with a roundabout in the middle to prevent speeding.

Roundabout The roundabout also would direct traffic toward the Guy Cole Center.

The existing main entrance would be closed.

Consultants wrote that relocating the entrance would allow for unrestricted flow in Bell Creek, eliminate flooding and reduce traffic issues west of the park.

The plan incorporates proposed master plans from such stakeholders as the Olympic Peninsula Demonstration Garden, Sequim City Band and Sequim Picklers.

It also continues efforts by the city and Sequim Family Advocates to create 60-plus parking spots.

Other items listed in the Carrie Blake Community Park Master Plan include: ■ Striping parking spots around Guy Cole Mini-Convention center.

■ Creating four tennis courts north of the skate park.

■ Redesigning the skate park for better use while limiting the park’s footprint and creating a vegetation buffer between it and the pickleball courts to its east.

■ Creating tiered seating around the James Center for the Performing Arts.

Space wasn’t found in the parks to include a BMX track, basketball courts, bocce ball and a climbing wall.

Consultants urged city officials to work with Clallam County on a BMX park and Sequim school officials about basketball courts.

They suggested installing bocce ball courts in smaller neighborhood parks and smaller climbing wall panels at the Guy Cole Center or skate park with safety surfacing.

A tunnel along the Seattle waterfront was the choice to replace the Alaskan Way Viaduct after it was damaged in a 2001 earthquake.

The original completion date for the tunnel was the fall of 2015.

The latest estimate for the opening of the doubledecker highway project had been April 2018.

SEATTLE — The machine digging a tunnel to replace Seattle’s Alaskan Way Viaduct has resumed work.

State transportation officials said the boring machine, known as Bertha, resumed mining Tuesday after the state allowed the work to continue.

Last month Gov. Jay Inslee halted all digging because a large sinkhole formed in the area where the machine was operating.

State officials say the tunnel contractor will be allowed to install 25 con-

tation buffers and improving intersections with striped sidewalks and curbed ramps.

Councilman Bob Lake said the plan provides a structure for the city and doesn’t say it will agree to pay for everything.

“Everything integrates now,” he said. “Also, if you have a plan, you can get grants.”

Traditionally, the city spends about $100,000 annually on parks, so city leaders say they’ll look for more partnerships.

Chief: New outpatient effort CONTINUED FROM A1 Gallagher has seen drug trends come and go.

In the 1970s, marijuana was “going to destroy the country,� he told the group.

From 1990-93, when Gallagher was on the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement team, “cocaine was a big deal,� Gallagher recalled. “Everybody thought cocaine was going to destroy the country.�

Then methamphetamine created its own scourge. “Now, we’re dealing with heroin,� Gallagher said. “You have heroin addicts at all levels of society.�

Incarceration But Gallagher said incarcerating people for drug possession does not work, especially given overcrowded facilities like the Clallam County jail, which has a 104 percent occupancy rate.

In the seven months since overdose drug naloxone has been kept in city police cars, a half-dozen lives have been saved, he said. “If you have the ability to help people, then you have the obligation to help people, and naloxone has done really well.�

Referral effort In that same vein, the police department, Clallam County Public Health and the citizens group of Port Angeles Citizen Action Network, or PA CAN, will coordinate an outpatient-based, drug-treatment-referral effort under the Police Assisted Addiction and Recovery Initiative, which began in Gloucester, Mass., and Arlington, Mass. “We tell people if you are a heroin addict, you can come to the police department, throw away your dope and syringes, and we will get you into treatment,�

Gallagher told the group. “There are no consequences in the criminal justice system whether you complete treatment or not. “We expect to kick it off in the next month or two,�

Gallagher said.

Clallam County public health programs manager Christina Hurst said Tuesday in an interview that the program will be called Port Angeles Takes Hope, or PATH. She said the county public health department will run test cases, and PA CAN volunteers will be instrumental in the effort. “I’m thrilled about it,�

Hurst said.

Here are other snippets from Gallagher’s speech: ■Significantly more 9-1-1 calls are received from cellphones than land lines. ■Detectives concentrate mostly on child abuse cases rather than property crimes. ■Residents tend to want to talk to Gallagher

about guns. “I’d rather talk about your 9-iron,� he said. ■Port Angeles Police Department overtime was $339,273 in 2007 compared to $153,361 in 2013. ■The problem with officers wearing body cameras isn’t what they might show during interactions with the public.

Rather, data storage would cost thousands of dollars. ■Most memorable cold case: The 1988 rapes of two 10-year-old girls by a single perpetrator. “I just spent a couple hours with one of the victims two weeks ago,� Gallagher said, losing his composure for a few seconds. “That was a crappy case.

She has survived that event, but not without a struggle.�

Citizen: Veterans’ Monument CONTINUED FROM A1 It’s the Veterans Monument that Rychlik said is his favorite.

Featuring a cavalcade of flags and inscribed tiles recognizing veterans of all U.S. military branches, the monument is at 544 N. SequimDungeness Way across from the Sequim High School campus. “That’s special,� Rychlik said. “I thought, ‘I have to do more for the veterans.’ �

Judy Reandeau Stipe, volunteer director of the MAC, nominated Rychlik. “He’s the one person we think about when we need something done,� she said. “He doesn’t stop giving for any reason. “He has no expectation for anything,� she added. “He’s just absolutely amazing.�

Rychlik, who serves as treasurer for the MAC, was quick to deflect praise to his helpers, particularly John Dickinson and Dan Smith. “If we didn’t have them, we wouldn’t have the museum or the Veterans Monument,� Rychlik said. “I just call them and they’re with me.�

A committee of past recipients selected the finalists that included Rychlik; Vern Fosket, Sequim High School band director; Judy Lange, board member/ group leader at the Shipley Center, and Tim and Branette Richards, volunteers for various groups.

Finalists honored Fosket was nominated for his dedication to projects beyond his role as high school band instructor at Sequim High School, serving as an event organizer for various concerts, parades and events in and outside the community for

Diana came to Crestwood post surgically for removal of a left frontal lobe brain tumor. She was experiencing progressive weakness and confusion, along with word finding difficulties when she was hospitalized. She arrived with weakness specifically on the side of her body; she was unable to write or tie her shoes as she once had. Within days, Diane was able to maneuver in her wheel chair around the facility, always smiling and willing to work with her occupational, speech and physical therapists.

She eventually graduated to using a rolling walker, improvising her balance and endurance in standing to complete valued tasks such as jamming with her husband, Ron, as he would frequently bring in their music book and play Bluegrass tunes. They have spent many years together attending Bluegrass festivals and it was evident that as Diane progressed in her therapy, she was able to easier engage in playing her baritone ukulele or guitar as Ron strummed his mandolin by her side, both singing to their hearts content, bringing smiles and tapping toes to those who stopped to listen.

Within a few weeks, Diane progressed to walking without an assistive device and was found many times in occupational therapy doing the “electric slide,� confidently completing the grapevine with ease. By the end of her time at Crestwood, she easily was able to care for herself, completing her basic routine with independence, accessing medical appointments with her husband and socializing within the facility with ease. We wish her the best of luck and will miss her!!

Two dead in Port Orchard explosion PENINSULA DAILY NEWS NEWS SOURCES

PORT ORCHARD — The remains of two people were found following a powerful explosion Tuesday morning that leveled a manufactured home in Port Orchard.

The Kitsap County Sheriff’s office said it has confirmed two fatalities at the blast, The Associated Press reported.

The homeowners who lost their lives have been identified as William and Maria McDonald, according to the Port Orchard Independent.

The explosion happened at about 4:10 a.m., prompting what Sheriff’s Office spokesman Scott Wilson told the Port Orchard newspaper was an outpouring of 9-1-1 calls.

“We must have gotten hundreds of calls — maybe up to 500,” he said, adding that calls came from places

as far away as Silverdale and Bangor.

Parts of the triple-wide manufactured home were sent up to 80 feet into the air, the newspaper said, adding that roof trusses landed onto towering evergreen trees.

‘Popsicle sticks’ First responders arrived to find the home leveled and burning — “turned into Popsicle sticks,” Wilson said.

Authorities have all but ruled out homicide as a cause of the explosion at the triple-wide manufactured home, but they have not determined how it happened, Wilson said.

“At this point, we do not believe there is anything suspicious that leads us down the path of criminal activity,” he said.

As far as they know, no one in the neighboring homes was injured in the

blast, although other buildings were damaged, including a nearby elementary school.

The extent of the damage elsewhere involved broken windows and doors, which he said was “truly remarkable” considering the strength of the blast that shook the neighborhood, Wilson said.

Previously, authorities said the two residents were unaccounted for.

South Kitsap Fire and Rescue said the explosion shook the neighborhood, damaged other homes and blew out windows at a nearby elementary school.

School officials were assessing the damage at Mullenix Ridge Elementary, which remained open Tuesday.

Sheriff detectives have requested the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms assist with the investigation.

He also requested specifics on business retention and business recruitment.

Two public comments were offered Tuesday that raised concerns about the contract.

“I have concerns about using so much of the taxpayer’s funding for economic ventures, which have not clearly provided economic benefits to many county constituents,” Judy Larson said in an email read by board Chairman Mike Chapman.

Bill Greenwood, executive director of the EDC, has said the organization has had successes in business retention and recruitment since it was restructured two years ago.

Commissioner Bill Peach thanked Greenwood and other EDC officials who attended the meeting for

“I would like to assure the public, at least to the extent possible, that the contract and the agreement we’ve come up with this year is an attempt to acknowledge that and an attempt for all of us to understand the benefit that we as a county are or are not getting from the EDC.”

PORT ANGELES — After months of discussion, Clallam County commissioners voted 3-0 Tuesday to extend a one-year contract with the Clallam County Economic Development Corp. for continued support of area businesses.

The $150,000 agreement was modified to include Commissioner Mark Ozias’ request for specific targets.

Under the terms of the new pact, EDC officials will give quarterly updates on a 2014-18 scope of work that includes creating more than 500 new jobs and supporting 15 companies in expanding or moving to the county.

Written and verbal reports will shed light on the number of businesses and jobs supported by the nonprofit organization.

“I understand that there has been a lot of concern from the public over the course of years as to the efficacy of the EDC,” Ozias said.

“And I would like to assure the public, at least to the extent possible, that the contract and the agreement we’ve come up with this year is an attempt to acknowledge that and an attempt for all of us to understand the benefit that we as a county are or are not getting from the EDC.” Ozias was elected last November as the representative of District 1, the eastern third of the county.

“I feel good about the metrics and the reporting requirements that we are asking of the EDC,”

Ozias added.

“It’s a substantial change from previous practice.”

The $150,000 agreement is the same amount that commissioners approved for 2015 and have committed to for 2017.

Ozias made his request for more information in a Feb. 1 board work session with EDC officials.

Grammy-nominated duo coming back to PT for concert

BY CHRIS MCDANIEL PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT TOWNSEND — The Grammy-nominated duo of Laurie Lewis and Tom Rozum is returning today to Key City Public Theatre for a live performance.

The performers’ last concert at Key City was a soldout event, organizers say.

This time around, the pair will present an evening of “Bluegrass and Acoustic Nirvana,” produced by Toolshed Soundlab.

Called “one of the preeminent bluegrass and Americana artists of our time” by critics, Lewis has been praised for her ability to write songs that cut through the noise.

Trained as a classical violinist, Lewis fell in love with bluegrass as a teenager growing up next to the Berkeley Folk Festival in the 1960s.

In 1974, Lewis helped found an all-female bluegrass band called the Good Ol’ Persons.

After a 10-year career as a bassist, jazz singer and proprietor of her own fiddle shop, she produced her first

solo album in 1986.

That same year, she began a musical collaboration with Rozum that has spanned three decades.

Rozum primarily performs on mandolin but also is an accomplished fiddle, mandola and guitar player.

New album

Lewis and Rozum recently released the album “The Hazel and Alice Sessions.”

The album is a tribute to two seminal female figures in bluegrass, Alice Gerrard and Hazel Dickens, both Clarinet ensemble Toot Sweet, seen dressed in Victorian-era attire, will perform Thursday at huge influences on Lewis’ Trinity United Methodist Church in Port Townsend as part of the Candlelight Concert series. artistic development, she said.

The concert starts at 7:30 p.m. at Key City Playhouse, 419 Washington St. Tickets are $20 and are available at www.keycity publictheatre.org and at the playhouse box office.

Never-ending challenges for salmon SEEN ANY GOOD movies lately?

I did. It was a real old-time Pat love story in which boy Neal meets girl.

Then the girl meets more boys. It turns out she has baggage with a capital B. She gets run out of Europe, so he follows her across the ocean to the east coast of North America, where it isn’t too long before she is on the run again.

He follows her to the Columbia River, where she has to leave in a hurry.

Then, our hero follows her to the wilds of Alaska.

He has been in love with her

since he was a child.

Do you believe in love at first sight? I’m certain that it happens all the time.

She is so beautiful everyone wants to kill her.

That’s because she is a salmon.

People and everything else in our forests have depended on her for the health of the ecosystem since the beginning.

“The Breach” is a film by former Alaska fishing guide Mark Titus and producer John M. Cornerford about the disappearance of the salmon.

The part of the salmon is portrayed by the voice of a human female. It’s a bit of anthropomorphizing that works without being too Disney.

“The Breach” tells a sad story that’s been told over and over.

It’s about the disappearance of the salmon from all across the

globe from pollution, dams, habitat destruction and overfishing.

It’s a scenario that played out across America from sea to shining sea, wiping out everything from the passenger pigeon to the buffalo and most everything that depended upon them for food.

The historic run of sockeye up the Fraser River alone was said to represent a biomass equal to the 60 million buffalo that roamed the prairie.

The Columbia River and its tributaries had more fish than Alaska.

Fortunes were made with the extinction of the buffalo, and there’s money to be made wiping out the salmon.

“The Breach” examines some of these threats to our fish by visiting the Atlantic salmon fish farms that block the migration of salmon, spewing parasites, chemicals and diseased waste on a

Peninsula Voices Planned news From October 2015 into January 2016, the American public was blanketed with faux “news” about how the Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group, made a video purporting to show Planned Parenthood officials illegally profiting from the sale of fetal tissue.

In fact, this video was allegedly secretly recorded and heavily edited and distorted to offend the public and denigrate Planned Parenthood.

The center prompted a criminal case against Planned Parenthood before a Texas grand jury, but in a dramatic reversal (which has received comparatively little news coverage), the jury indicted not Planned Parenthood but two of the center’s anti-choice leaders on felony charges for tampering with governmental records to defraud.

The grand jury’s indictment said the center’s rep-

resentatives presented California driver’s licenses with fake names and addresses to gain access to Houston’s Planned Parenthood.

Our mainline news has also failed to report on Planned Parenthood’s civil suit against the Center for Medical Progress for offenses under RICO (the anti-racketeering law): wire and mail fraud, false statements to the IRS, illegal recording and trespassing, all part of the center’s three-year conspiracy to smear Planned Parenthood.

Planned Parenthood exists to provide medical care and education to women and men in their reproductive years and beyond.

Throughout Planned ple of all ages with all Parenthood’s existence, its aspects of their sexuality. opponents have repeatedly Judith Parker, broken every kind of law in Sequim order to defame, shame and destroy the one national Fox News critic organization committed Perhaps a hundred specifically to helping peo-

OUR

priceless public resource that’s just trying to do what it’s always done: swim back to home rivers.

It examines the diminishing role of salmon in the human food supply.

It’s hard to have salmon for dinner when you can’t catch one.

We’ve become a fast-food nation, working our way down the food chain to the three major food groups — grease, salt and sugar — with an energy drink to wash it all down.

It’s been proven Americans will eat pink slime if you greasefry and supersize it, with cheese.

We really don’t care if our salmon was caught swimming in the ocean or raised in a factory farm like the rest of the abused domestic animals we pump full of toxic chemicals on their tortured journeys to our table.

If you really want a wild salmon to eat, you’ll just have to

save your money and buy a Copper River salmon when they fly one down to the Lower 48 on a jet for 30 bucks a pound.

Alaska is the last frontier of the salmon.

The Bristol Bay sockeye run is the largest left in the world.

The people of Bristol Bay rely on salmon for food and employment the way the people of Washington state once did.

Now they want to kill Bristol Bay with Pebble Mine, a giant mineral exploration project.

It’s been stopped for now, but evil never sleeps.

Not as long as the price of precious metals rises.

Those who ignore history are doomed to eat tofu.

READERS’ LETTERS, FAXES AND EMAIL

times this year, I’ve heard the same Howie Kurtz’s opinion spot on Fox News Radio.

He is bemused and baffled, declaiming that Cruz is obviously eligible for the

media, with a “Trumped up” assist from the birtherin-chief.

Gee, what does that remind me of?

Do you remember, Howie, the endless parade of birthers, led by Trump, on Fox News before the 2012 election?

The messaging was so relentless that over a year after the election, a survey found that 70 percent of Fox News viewers still believed Obama was born in a foreign country.

Tell me, Howie, since Obama’s mother was a U.S. citizen, why did the Fox talking heads insist that the president was foreignborn despite massive evidence to the contrary?

It’s because of the claim made over and over on Fox that a person born in a forpresidency because, even eign country was not a though he was born in a “natural-born citizen” and foreign country, his mother thus ineligible for the preswas an American citizen. idency even if a parent was Any claim to the conan American citizen. trary has no basis in fact Greg Stone, Sequim and was conjured up by the

Smartphone-era politics THE TIME HAS come for a painful confession: I have spent my life with words, yet I am illiterate.

I can ape the vocabulary Roger of my times, Cohen but it is not mine.

Certain things I cannot say, only mouth.

I grew up with readers and, by extension, readership.

The readers have vanished like migrating birds. They have been replaced by users and by viewers and by audience.

The verbal experience has given way to the visual experience. Where pages were turned, images are clicked.

Words, those obdurate jewels, have been processed to form content, a commodity like any other.

The letter has given way to the link.

I do not have the words to be at ease in this world of steep migration from desktop to mobile, of search-engine optimization, of device-agnostic bundles, of cascading metrics and

dashboards and buckets, of postprint onboarding and socialmedia FOMO (fear of missing out).

I was more at home with the yarn du jour.

“Jour” was once an apt first syllable for the word journalism; “hour” would now be more appropriate.

The yarn of the day, culled from the local press, was the foreign correspondent’s bread and butter.

“Yesterday’s news, today’s story!”

That was in the time of distance. Disconnection equaled immersion. Today, connection equals distraction.

I read, therefore I am. I am “liked,” therefore I am.

I am of the place I am in. I am of the device I inhabit.

Talk to me. Facebook me.

These are distinct ways of being.

They lead to distinct ways of communicating.

We find ourselves at a pivot point.

How we exist in relation to one another is in the midst of radical redefinition, from working to flirting.

The smartphone is a Faustian device, at once liberation and enslavement. It frees us to be anywhere and everywhere — and

most of all nowhere.

It widens horizons. It makes those horizons invisible.

Upright homo sapiens, millions of years in the making, has yielded in a decade to the stooped homo sapiens of downward device-dazzled gaze.

A smartphone is no longer enough. We must have a smart car and a smart home.

Or so we are told. A low-IQ home feels good enough to me.

Perhaps this is how the calligrapher felt after 1440, when it began to be clear what Gutenberg had wrought.

A world is gone. Another, as poor Jeb Bush (!) has discovered, is being born — one where words mean everything and the contrary of everything, where sentences have lost their weight, where volume drowns truth.

You have to respect American voters. They are changing the lexicon in their anger with the status quo.

They don’t care about consistency. They care about energy.

Reasonableness dies. Provocation works.

Whether you are for or against something, or both at the same time, is secondary to the rise your position gets.

Our times are unpunctuated.

Politics, too, has a new language,

spoken above all by the Republican front-runner as he repeats that, “There is something going on.”

Yes, there is something going on. The phrase resonates with people who feel they have somehow lost control. Stuck, they seek movement above all.

I am not alone in my illiteracy.

All around me, I see people struggling to understand, anxious they cannot keep up, outpaced by forces they cannot grasp.

With knowledge of, and access to, the billions of people sharing the planet has come a new loneliness.

How cold and callous is the little screen of our insidious temptation, working our fingers so hard to produce so little!

That acronym, FOMO, is used

by Nir Eyal, a former game designer, in his book Hooked: How to Build Habit-Forming Products.

In it, he describes the fear-ofmissing-out mood that triggers people to turn and return to a successful app: “Feelings of boredom, loneliness, frustration, confusion, and indecisiveness often instigate a slight pain or irritation and prompt an almost instantaneous and often mindless action to

quell the negative sensation.”

I nodded my head at this in Jacob Weisberg’s review in The New York Review of Books.

In the same review, Weisberg writes, “Once out of bed, we check our phones 221 times a day — an average of every 4.3 minutes — according to a U.K. study.”

He also notes that one thing young people don’t do on their smartphones “is actually speak to one another.”

This appears to be some form of addictive delirium. It is probably dangerous in some still unknowable way.

But if this is a confession, it is not a lament.

Yes, I feel illiterate. Technology has upended not only newspapers; it has upended language itself, which is none other than a community’s system of communication.

What is a community today?

Can there be community at all with downward gazes?

I am not sure. But I am certain that cross-platform content has its beauty and its promise if only I could learn the right words to describe them.

B College Hoops

Difficult position not new to Zags

BY JIM MEEHAN MCCLATCHY NEWS SERVICE

In 1999 there was no streak, just a driven Gonzaga basketball team that knew it had to win the West Coast Conference tournament to make the Big Dance.

The Bulldogs did it, and launched a captivating NCAA tournament run that reached the Elite Eight.

In 2003, the streak was young and in jeopardy when Gonzaga fell to San Diego in the conference title game. The selection committee awarded Gonzaga with the first atlarge berth in program history.

In 2007, the Bulldogs ran into a schedule with three teams ranked in the top 8, three more in the top 25 and the February suspension of Josh Heytvelt for drug possession.

The Zags assumed the role of underdogs and found a way.

In 2011, Gonzaga had two threegame losing streaks and were tied for fourth midway through the 14-game conference schedule. The Zags won at Saint Mary’s, shared the league title and handled the Gaels again in the West Coast Conference championship game.

Another tight spot Those were the closest calls in Gonzaga’s streak of 17 consecutive NCAA tournaments — until now.

The Bulldogs (13-3, 21-7) likely have to win this week at San Diego and BYU to earn a piece of the conference title. They probably have to win the West Coast Conference tournament to punch their NCAA ticket.

“The other day in the locker room we looked back on it and you think all these teams had easy runs. No, there have been multiple years where we had to win certain games or get on a run,” said Mike Hart, Gonzaga’s video coordinator who was a sophomore on the 2011 squad.

“Coach [Mark] Few was talking about the ’99 team having to win the [conference] tournament.

“I was thinking about our [2011] team. We definitely weren’t very good at the start of the year, but we put it together.

The last stretch from halfway through league to the WCC tournament was phenomenal.”

And a huge relief.

“Especially from my standpoint, being the lone senior and seeing what could have happened and seeing the streak end,” guard Steven Gray said at the time. “A big weight has been lifted.”

That team, which included Robert Sacre, Elias Harris, Kelly Olynyk and Sam Dower, won its last eight conference games, edged San Francisco in a West Coast Conference semifinal and pulled away late to beat Saint Mary’s. Marquise Carter, who had a strong final five weeks, was the tournament MVP. “We came together down the stretch and bought in,” Hart said.

“And we had good leadership in terms of Steven and Rob. They felt the pressure [of the streaks] but were able to still lead through that.”

‘Got to keep striving’ Pirates still have some work to do

BY LEE HORTON PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — The Peninsula College men’s basketball team has achieved everything it wanted in the regular season.

The Pirates are Northwest Athletic Conference North Region champions. They’re hosting a first-round postseason game.

There’s still two games left in the regular season. Now what?

“I’m no sure, I’ve never been in this position,” sophomore guard Ryley Callaghan said after Peninsula clinched the North title with a 66-62 victory over Bellevue on Saturday.

“It’s my first time in this position, too, so we’re just going to go with the coaching plan, the game plan, the next two games.

“You know, I don’t think anything’s going to change, we’re still going to play hard.”

The Pirates (10-2, 17-9), who are ranked fifth in the lastest NWAC coaches poll, finish the regular season on the road, first tonight at Skagit Valley (4-8, 11-14), and then Saturday at Shoreline (4-8, 9-14).

“Nothing changes,” Pirates coach Mitch Freeman said.

“We have got to stay dialed in and stay the course with how we’re playing and what we’re doing, and preparation process and going into games.

“I feel like we’ve got this second season coming along right now, and we’ve got to be able to be prepared and take advantage of that.”

PC women facing must-win Peninsula most likely will finish first or third in region

BY LEE HORTON PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

The Peninsula College women’s basketball team had a huge win over Bellevue last week that gave them a one-game lead in the North Region over the Bulldogs and Skagit Valley.

But as far as the North title, all Saturday’s win did was keep

the Pirates (11-1, 20-5) in the race.

Peninsula needs to win its final two games to claim a second consecutive region championship. That means beating the Cardinals (10-2, 20-8) in Mount Vernon tonight and then not tripping up against Shoreline (4-8, 6-15) on Saturday.

If the Pirates lose either of

those two games, it is more likely than not that they will share the title with Bellevue (10-2, 20-5) and Skagit but be relegated to the region’s third seed at the NWAC tournament.

That’s because out of the three teams, Peninsula has the lowest tiebreaker number.

The Pirates seem to be in a first-or-third scenario. Placing second would take a loss by the Bulldogs or the Cardinals.

Bellevue finishes at home against Whatcom (3-9, 3-20) tonight and Saturday at Everett (6-6, 13-13). It’s unlikely the

Bulldogs will drop either game.

After hosting Peninsula tonight, Skagit finishes at home against last-place Edmonds (1-11, 2-22).

The top two seeds from each region host a first-round, loserout playoff game Saturday, March 5.

The other two teams from each region travel for the opening round. In the case of the North’s third seed, that means playing at the East’s second seed, which will probably be either Spokane or Walla Walla.

Walker ready to compete for spot Pitching phenom knows he isn’t guaranteed a spot in M’s rotation

BY BOB DUTTON MCCLATCHY NEWS SERVICE

March Madness fixture Gonzaga’s run of 11 straight regular-season championships ended the following year. But its NCAA streak has endured and is tied for fourth longest in the nation.

The 2007 squad, with Derek Raivio, Sean Mallon, David Pendergraft, Jeremy Pargo, Matt Bouldin, Micah Downs and Abdullahi Kuso, was one of only two teams under Few with double-digit losses.

Rocked by Heytvelt’s suspension, Gonzaga promptly dropped two of its next three, one to Santa Clara that snapped a 50-game home winning streak and a 78-77 heartbreaker to Memphis.

“When we lost to Memphis we knew our bubble chances were done,” Pendergraft said.

“That team was probably in a basketball sense the most fun I had in just overcoming and overachieving because everyone had written us off.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Seattle Mariners pitcher Tiajuan Walker throws during spring training in Peoria, Ariz., earlier this week.

PEORIA, Ariz. — The official line this spring is right-hander Taijuan Walker is pitching to keep his job in the Seattle Mariners’ rotation.

This narrative positions Walker in a three-way battle with James Paxton and Nathan Karns for the final two slots behind Felix Hernandez, Wade Miley and Hisashi Iwakuma.

Fine.

Walker, Paxton and Karns each have options remaining, which means they can be sent to the minors without clearing waivers. And none of them have sufficient service time to guarantee their major-league salaries.

“It’s always compete mode,” Walker said. “At any given time, someone can come and take your spot. In baseball, you’re never safe. You really have to go in every year with [the approach] that you’re competing for your spot.

“Obviously, there are guys like Felix, who have been around 10 years and have done it for a

long time. But being a younger guy, you’ve still got to go out and compete.”

True enough: Walker isn’t protected in the same manner as Hernandez, Miley and Iwakuma. Even so, club officials routinely characterize Walker as a cornerstone in a roster that is built to win now.

GM has high hopes “Going in,” general manager Jerry Dipoto said, “Taijuan Walker made great progress at the last half, even last twothirds of last year.

“I think you started to see some of what he was capable of, and we want to see him take one of those jobs.”

That suggests, at minimum, Walker ranks first among equals in any competition with Paxton and Karns. Put another way, Walker has a job to lose, while the other two must prove they deserve a spot.

“Taijuan is 23 and coming off a pretty good year last year,” manager Scott Servais said.

PULLMAN — Ernie Kent was on the sidelines in Eugene in 2002 when Oregon won its schoolrecord 23rd consecutive home game.

Boy, he’d like to be anywhere else when the Ducks win their 24th. Dana Altman’s 13th-ranked Oregon Ducks (21-6, 10-4 Pac-12) can break the record against Kent’s Washington State Cougars tonight and keep pace with Arizona in the Pac-12 title hunt.

While Washington State (9-18, 1-14) is certain to finish the season in last place, they can still have some fun playing spoiler against Oregon State and Washington teams hoping to sneak into the NCAA tournament, or by dashing Oregon’s regular season championship hopes.

“We play the best team in the conference yet, so that’s going to be a good gauge heading into the Pac-12 tournament,” junior forward Josh Hawkinson said.

“And then, you know, just getting a couple wins for these seniors to end their season.”

The Ducks appeared to be runaway favorites to win the Pac-12 crown prior to a mid-February sweep by California and Stanford on the road.

Dillon Brooks has emerged as a conference Player of the Year contender behind the current favorite, Utah center Jakob Poeltl.

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 2016

M’s: Walker added new pitch CONTINUED FROM B1 “He should be wanting to take his game to the next level. We’re excited about the path that he’s on. He’s going to be a key for us. No doubt.�

Dipoto characterized Walker as “a guy I think has the chance to shoot the moon.�

It’s easy to see why.

Walker, 23, showed signs last season of harnessing his long-predicted potential.

He went 10-3 with a 3.62 ERA over his final 20 starts.

He also walked just 17 batters in 126 2/3 innings in that span. “I just got real aggressive,� he said. “I just kind of went right after the hitters.

Made them put the ball in play.

“I really didn’t go for the strikeout. I really tried not to get to three balls. I tried to attack early and tried to get the easy, quick out.�

The turnaround was particularly impressive because Walker righted himself after a disastrous start — 1-5 with a 7.33 ERA through nine games — without requiring a confidence-restoring trip to Triple-A Tacoma. “The first month, month and a half,� he said, “I just wasn’t there. Giving up a run, or two runs, early kind of shut me down. After those two months, I kind of realized I’m going to give up runs. “But when people get on base, I’ve just got to prevent how many runs I give up.

My [approach] became if I

give up one run, OK. But that’s it. That’s all they get.�

Walker had 15 quality starts in his final 20 outings. He gave up fewer than two runs on eight occasions.

His biggest bugaboo became a tendency to give up home runs because he was, as his walk rate confirms, always around the plate.

His solution: A straight change-up. He began throwing the pitch in winter workouts, and he plans to spend this spring working to perfect it. “I throw a lot of fourseamers [straight fastballs],� Walker said. “I felt like a straight change would really work because my [old] change was like a split-change. It had two-seam spin to it. I just wanted to work on the

four-seam change.�

As much as anything, Walker’s willingness to spend the spring working on a new pitch speaks to his unspoken status within the rotation.

Pitchers looking to win a job typically stick to their best stuff in order to impress — especially when dealing with a new manager and coaching staff.

Instead, Walker is trying something new that might initially have some rough edges. “I’m excited,� he said. “There definitely is a lot of change. The manager, the GM, a bunch of new teammates. But it means a fresh start for everyone. “Just come into the season with no expectations and get ready to play some baseball.�

Mattingly’s Marlins adopt no facial hair policy

BY STEVEN WINE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

JUPITER, Fla. — For the first time in his major league career, Don Mattingly’s team has a policy of no facial hair.

And as the Miami Marlins’ new manager, he’s the one enforcing the rule.

The Marlins allowed players to have beards the past two years, but that changed under an organizational policy adopted after Mattingly was hired. “Initially not too many

guys were happy about it,� said reliever Mike Dunn, who shaved off his goatee before reporting to spring training. “You can fight it, or you don’t. Obviously I shaved, so it’s OK.�

Mattingly said he didn’t care whether players were allowed to have beards, goatees or mustaches, but supported the new rule. “Guys will whine,� Mattingly said earlier this week. “Some guys like it, some guys won’t. As long as we’re consistent, I think it’s

not that big of a deal.�

But it’s new for Mattingly. The Dodgers allowed facial hair when Mattingly was their manager for five seasons, and he wore a mustache when he was an All-Star first baseman for the Yankees.

In 1991 he was benched for refusing to cut his hair, and says his complaint was that the rule was not being enforced equitably among everyone on the Yankees. “It wasn’t really that complicated,� he said.

Many Marlins sported

facial hair last season.

Among the players who have had to give up their beard is 23-year-old ace Jose Fernandez, who shaved after he reported to camp. “I’m afraid I’m going to look 16,� he said with a smile. “But it’s not a big deal. Whatever the rules are, we’re going to follow them.�

By changing their look, perhaps the Marlins will change their luck. They haven’t had a winning season since 2009.

Competition committee debates ejections for personal fouls in NFL THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS — Stephen Jones believes the NFL will crack down on flagrant personal fouls next season.

He’s just not sure what it will take for a player to get thrown out of a game.

After spending most of Tuesday inside an Indianapolis hotel, Jones emerged from an NFL competition committee meeting and acknowledged he expects the debate over ejecting players for multiple personal fouls to be resolved as early as next month’s owners meetings in Boca Raton, Fla. The debate is all about the details. “I think it’s not really about how many, it’s what personal fouls should be included,� said Jones, the Dallas Cowboys’ executive vice president for player personnel. “There’s more to it than that [a number].�

It’s yet another aspect of the growing concern over player safety in football.

In response, league officials have implemented stronger concussion protocols and supported moves to teach safer tackling techniques at all levels of the sport.

The competition committee, meanwhile, has recommended a series of rules changes in recent years to

provide more protection on the field. Some of the alterations have included penalties for hitting defenseless receivers, restricting the use of the crown of the helmet by offensive or defensive players, and eliminating blind-side blocks, particularly on punt or kick returns.

New concerns emerged last December when New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. was called for three personal fouls during a loss to the Carolina Panthers.

Beckham played aggressively throughout the game, but some of his penalties were so flagrant it spurred a debate whether players with more than one offense in a game should automatically be ejected — like basketball players and coaches who receive more than one technical foul, or soccer players who receive two yellow cards.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said during Super Bowl week he believes two personal fouls in the same game by one player should lead to ejection, and Jones indicated there’s not much dissension on that point.

And now that everyone is in Indianapolis for the league’s annual scouting combine, the topic is front and center.

DEAR ABBY: A foreign friend used the “n” word while commenting about an employee at a hotel we were staying in.

After he said it a second time, I slapped him and told him that word was never acceptable, regardless of the reason.

I feel bad about hitting him, but entirely justified in motive and intent.

I really can’t think of another, more effective way of registering how offended I am in a situation like this.

Should I apologize? Should it be a qualified apology?

I tried to explain the complex racial history of the U.S. and why the word was so hurtful, but he seemed disinclined to understand.

What is the right way to react in such a situation?

Dear Stuck: You chose to marry Victor because you wanted emotional stability and you had built a life together.

Obviously, that isn’t enough for you, or you wouldn’t be cheating with Wade.

If what you really want is a marriage filled with passion, tumult and the possibility of infidelity, by all means choose your former boss.

That way, you won’t be bored, and Victor will then be free to find a loving, faithful wife who appreciates what he has to offer.

Dear Abby: I’m in love with two men.

My husband, “Victor,” and I have been together for nine years and were married last year.

The other man in my life, “Wade,” was my boss, and we’ve been seeing each other for two years.

They are polar opposites and make me happy in different ways.

I was engaged and planning my wedding when Wade and I started our relationship.

I chose to marry Victor for emotional stability and because we had

I can’t imagine a life without him.

At the same time, I can’t imagine not being with Wade.

If I stop seeing Wade, I know I won’t be happy and he’ll always be on my mind. I will always wonder about what could

have been.

If I divorce my husband, I’ll break his heart, and it won’t be easy.

Last week, Wade demanded that I decide between him and my husband.

He wants an exclusive relationship with me. I’m in a panic because I can’t decide, but I know I will lose Wade if I don’t do it soon.

I need advice because I don’t know which way to go.

Dear Anonymous: You should not have let the first remark go without speaking up.

The right way to respond to the person’s racist comment would have been to say that it offended you and you would prefer not to hear that kind of language from him again.

Physical violence is not the correct way to get a point across.

If you must associate with this person, apologize for flying off the handle.

Otherwise, avoid him.

PORT ANGELES — The Franklin Elementary School sixth-grade students enrolled in the Kiwanis after-school “Introduction to Computer Science” class are studying how to program Finch robots using SNAP programming language.

SNAP is a super-set of the SCRATCH programming language developed at MIT. SCRATCH teaches computer programming skills for students using Legolike blocks.

Each one of the robots has a light/temperature/ obstacle sensor, accelerometer, motor, buzzer, fullcolor beak LED and a pen mount for drawing capability.

The Finch robots were provided by a grant from the Kiwanis Foundation of Port Angeles and the Port Angeles Education Foundation.
