Gregoire ‘hates’ budget About $3 billion in cuts asked for next 2 years The Associated Press

OLYMPIA — Programs that help Washington’s poor were among those cut from Gov. Chris Gregoire’s proposed two-year budget Wednesday, a plan she said she hated so much that “in some places, I don’t even think it’s moral.” Gregoire used a mix of cuts to state programs, suspension of voter initiatives and use of the state’s “rainy day” fund to patch a projected $4.6 billion deficit. The approximately $3 billion in cuts to her 2011-2013 budget included the elimination of the Basic Health Program, which provides subsidized medical insurance to 66,000 poorer Washingtonians. Also eliminated is cash grants and medical care for the Disability Lifeline program, which mostly aids childless adults who are unemployable but not receiving federal aid. The proposal also would eliminate the Children’s Health Program, which provides medical

A state food stamp program for those who don’t qualify for federal food stamps was also cut. Gregoire noted that the word “eliminate” is used about 80 times in her budget. “I hate my budget,” she said, tearing up. “I hate it because in some places, I don’t even think it’s moral.” While social and health ser-

The state Legislature’s midyear cuts to public schools slash more than $3.74 million from North Olympic Peninsula Schools. “I have never in 33 years of education ever had the budget cut during the current fiscal year,” said Port Angeles School District Superintendent Jane Pryne. “This is the first year I have ever seen anything like this happen.” The Legislature on Saturday voted to cut $583 million from its budget with about $100 million of that in cuts to school districts.

“This is unprecedented,” Chimicum School District Superintendent Craig Downs said. On the heels of those cuts, Gov. Chris Gregoire on Wednesday released her proposed budget that urges the Legislature to extend those cuts for the next biennium, along with trimming more than $3 billion from education funding. The Legislature voted on Saturday to decrease what state money to school districts by the same amount that they receive through the federal Education Jobs Fund program, said Jim Schwob, Port Angeles School District business manager.

Anglers upset Full crowd protests proposed five-year fishing moratorium By Tom Callis

Alicia Thompson of Port Angeles and her son, Charlie Thompson, 2, meet Rocky and Cami, a pair of Clydesdales owned by Doug Hayman, Roosevelt Elementary School principal, on Wednesday at the school. Hayman has made an annual tradition of providing horse-drawn wagon rides as a holiday treat for his students.

PORT ANGELES — An overflow crowd of about 125 people gave a thumbs-down to including Lake Sutherland in a state Fish and Wildlife proposal to enact a five-year fishing moratorium for the Elwha River and its tributaries at a public meeting Wednesday. About two dozen people stood in the aisles in a Peninsula College classroom meant to hold 100 people. Every comment received at the three-hour meeting opposed the idea or expressed doubt that closing the lake would help restore runs of anadromous sockeye, which migrate from the ocean, as the state agency hopes it will. “This is the only decent lake on the [North Olympic] Peninsula within two hours for most of us to fish,” said John Albiso, president of the North Olympic Chapter of the Washington Coastal Conservation Association. “It looks like to us it’s the end of fishing forever at Lake Sutherland,” said Lon Riggs of Port Angeles. Fish and Wildlife is proposing the moratorium for the Elwha

River to help protect fish runs during and after removal of its two dams. Dam removal, the focus of a $350 million federal project to restore the river’s ecosystem, will begin in September and last until March 2014.

Research requested The marathon of comments — which showed support for a fishing moratorium for the river as long as it didn’t include the lake — also questioned whether there is research support including the lake in the move, which would start in November, and whether it would be limited only to five years if approved by the Fish and Wildlife Commission in February. Fish and Wildlife Regional Fish Program Manager Ron Warren admitted that it’s unknown how much impact fishing would have on the return of anadromous sockeye to the lake, which is connected to the Elwha River through Indian Creek. Warren said the lake is being considered for the closure to help the anadromous sockeye, which may return when the dams are removed. Turn

Ceremony to mark start of daily Hurricane Ridge access Peninsula Daily News

OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK — Seven-day access to Hurricane Ridge begins Friday. Olympic National Park plans a noon ceremony at the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center and is waiving the $15 entrance fee to the ridge on that day. Shuttle bus service — costing $10 per round trip Wednesdays through Sundays — also begins

Friday to the popular snow playground 17 miles south of Port Angeles. “We invite the public to join our partners and us in celebrating the beginning of the winter season and our new seven-day-aweek access schedule,” said Karen Gustin, park superintendent. “The weather forecast looks promising for Friday, and we’re hoping for a good turnout of winter enthusiasts to mark the begin-

ning of daily winter access.”

New banner A new “Road Open” banner will be unveiled at Friday’s noon ceremony to publicize this year’s seven-day-a-week plowing schedule. In the past, the road has been open only Friday through Sunday from late November through March.

But beginning Friday, the road will be open — weather permitting — from 9 a.m. to dusk every day expect Christmas Day. The all-week schedule was made possible by about $75,000 raised in donations and another $250,000 in federal funds. Port Angeles City Council member Cherie Kidd — an organizer of the effort to raise donations to keep the road open daily,

a move expected to increase tourism — will be among the speakers at the noon ceremony. Gustin also will speak, as well as a representative of Rep. Norm Dicks, D-Belfair, of the 6th Congressional District, which includes the North Olympic Peninsula, and a representative of the Hurricane Ridge Winter Sports Club, which operates the ski facilities.

Johansson, Reynolds end marriage SCARLETT JOHANSSON AND RYAN Reynolds are breaking up. “After long and careful consideration on both our parts, we’ve decided to end our marriage,” Reynolds the two entertainers said Tuesday through their publicist, Meredith O’Sullivan. “We Johansson entered our relationship with love, and it’s with love and kindness we leave it. While privacy isn’t expected, it’s certainly appreciated,” they said. The 26-year-old actress and 34-year-old actor were engaged in May 2008 and married that September. The couple kept their courtship and nuptials private, releasing few details about their wedding and rarely appearing in public together. Johansson’s recent credits include “Iron Man 2” and “He’s Just Not That Into You.” Reynolds appeared opposite Sandra Bullock in “The Proposal” and stars in “Green Lantern,” set for release next year.

BOB FELLER, 92, blessed with a right arm that earned the Iowa farmboy the nickname “Rapid Robert” and made him one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history, died Wednesday night of acute leukemia at a hospice in Ohio. Mr. Feller, who left baseball in the prime of his career to fight for his country, won 266 games in 18 Mr. Feller seasons — all with the Cleveland Indians. Remarkably fit until late in life, Mr. Feller had suffered serious health setbacks in recent months. He was diagnosed with leukemia in August. In November, he was hospitalized with pneumonia and recently released into hospice care. Mr. Feller finished with 2,581 career strikeouts, led the American League in strikeouts seven times, pitched three no-hitters — including the only one on opening day — and recorded a jaw-dropping 12 one-hitters. The first pitcher to win 20 games before he was 21, Mr. Feller was enshrined in

U.S. sues BP, others for oil spill damages

Justice Department’s criminal probe separate from lawsuit The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — The Justice Department sued BP and several other companies involved in the Gulf oil spill Wednesday, an opening salvo in the government’s effort to get billions of dollars for untold economic and environmental damage. The government accused the companies of disregarding federal safety regulations in drilling the well that blew out April 20 and triggered a deadly explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig. The lawsuit is separate from a Justice Department criminal probe that has not resulted in any charges. “The department’s focus on investigating this disaster and preventing future (spills) is not over,” Attorney General Eric Holder said during a news conference in Washington. “Both our civil and criminal investigations are ongoing.” The federal lawsuit filed in New Orleans names BP, rig owner Transocean and some other com-

panies involved in the ill-fated drilling project, but not Halliburton — the project’s cement contractor — or the maker of a key cutoff valve that failed. Both could be added later. BP said it would respond to the claims at a later date but noted that it stands “alone among the parties” in having already stepped up to pay for the cleanup. It said in a statement that it will continue to fulfill its commitments to the Gulf and to cooperate with ongoing investigations.

U.S. could seek billions “The filing is solely a statement of the government’s allegations and does not in any manner constitute any finding of liability or any judicial finding that the allegations have merit,” BP said. The lawsuit makes it possible for the federal government to seek billions of dollars in penalties for polluting the Gulf of Mexico, beaches and wetlands, and reimbursement for its cleanup costs. More than 300 lawsuits filed

previously by individuals and businesses, and now consolidated in the New Orleans federal court, include claims for financial losses and compensation for the families of 11 workers killed in the blast. The judge overseeing those lawsuits had set Wednesday as the deadline to file certain types of complaints, though it was unclear whether the government was bound by that time frame. “The Justice Department has left its options open to argue that there was gross negligence and therefore should be higher penalties,” said David Uhlmann, a law professor at the University of Michigan who headed up the Justice Department’s environmental crimes section for seven years. “The government has not limited itself in any way with the filing of its civil lawsuit.” The suit asks that the companies be held liable without limitation under the Oil Pollution Act for all removal costs and damages caused by the spill, including damages to natural resources. The lawsuit also seeks civil penalties under the Clean Water Act. The government did not set a dollar figure in the lawsuit, saying the amount of damages and the extent of injuries sustained by the United States are not yet fully known.

U.N. lifts weapons, nuclear power sanctions against Iraq By Edith M. Lederer The Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. Security Council gave a unanimous vote of confidence Wednesday to the significant strides Iraq has taken by lifting 19-year-old sanctions on weapons and civilian nuclear power. The council also decided to return control of Iraq’s oil and natural gas revenue to the government next summer and to settle all remaining claims over the controversial oil-for-food program, which helped ordinary Iraqis cope with sanctions imposed after Saddam Hussein’s army invaded Kuwait two decades ago. Although some sanctions will remain in place until Iraq and Kuwait settle outstanding issues from that war, Wednesday’s vote

was a major step to restore Iraq’s international standing a year before the U.S. is to pull its last troops out of the country. It came a day after a powersharing agreement ended a lengthy deadlock on forming a new Iraqi government. Vice President Joe Biden, who presided over the meeting, told the council the move marked “an important milestone for the government of Iraq and people of Iraq in their ongoing effort to leave behind their troubled past and embrace a much brighter future.” “The three resolutions we’ve passed bring an end to the burdensome remnants of the dark era of Saddam Hussein,” he said. Biden’s presence was a sign of the importance the Obama admin-

istration gave to the vote. The U.S. holds the Security Council presidency this month. Iraqi Foreign Minister Hoshyar Zebari said the adoption of the resolutions “marks the beginning of the end of the sanctions regime and restrictions on Iraq’s sovereignty, independence and recovery.” “Our key focus has been to unburden Iraq from the heavy legacy of noncompliance with international law and to break its isolation and regain its rightful place among the community of nations,” he told the council. Zebari said in an interview with The Associated Press that Biden’s presence and the resolutions “showed continued American engagement with Iraq — that it’s not abandoned.”

World: Kenyan leaders named suspects in attacks

Before 2010, Mark Zuckerberg, the 26-year-old co-founder and CEO of Facebook, was primarily known as a mysterious, sweatshirted figure, a Silicon Valley wunderkind familiar mainly to those in tech circles. But this year, Zuckerberg has been thrust into pop culture ubiquity, appearing on screens of all shapes and sizes, from “Oprah” to one of the year’s most acclaimed films. On Wednesday, his public ascent was solidified by Time magazine, which named him its “Person of the Year.” He’s the youngest choice for the honor since the first one chosen, Charles Lindbergh, in 1927.

Talk about a Grinch: Police said someone trying to steal copper wire in Alabama burned down the city of Birmingham’s 35-foot-tall Christmas tree. Officers said someone stripped electrical wires off the Norwegian spruce at Linn Park about 4 a.m. Wednesday, then started a fire. Police believe thieves were attempting to separate the copper wire from the plastic insulation on Christmas decorations. But the fire spread to the tree, engulfing it in flames. Public works crews later used heavy machinery to remove the blackened limbs and trunk. Parks Director Melvin Miller said the tree wouldn’t be replaced, but a radio station donated a new one within hours.

Authorities in Alabama said all they had to do to catch six bank robbery suspects was follow the money flying out the window of a speeding car. The Gadsden Times reported that a deputy spotted the red Nissan Maxima cruising down a state highway, the cash left in its wake. Cherokee County Sheriff Jeff Shaver said four gunmen took an undisclosed amount of money during the robbery Tuesday at Union State Bank. He said the six suspects ditched their first getaway car and got into the Maxima to try and throw off authorities. Shaver said all the suspects ran away after the car wrecked. But all six men were eventually arrested.

The International Criminal Court prosecutor Wednesday named six Kenyan leaders as suspects behind the machete, gunfire and bow-andarrow attacks that followed Kenya’s 2007 presidential vote. Residents rejoiced at the first sign of justice for the deaths of 1,000 people. The president urged calm and security forces were on high alert, knowing that the announcement by prosecutor Luis Moreno Ocampo runs the risk of igniting another round of tribal warfare. The son of Kenya’s founding father — the current deputy prime minister — was among the six suspects named, as was former higher education minister William Ruto.

Highlights of the budget  K-12 EDUCATION: Suspends smaller class sizes and teacher pay increases mandated by Initiatives 728 and 732 for a combined cut of more than $1.1 billion. Plans to increase capacity of all-day kindergarten and reductions of K-4 class sizes are also suspended for a cut of more than $270 million. Also missing is $600 million that would have gone into additional spending on public education, the first phase of a multiyear plan that was dictated under a bill passed by the Legislature earlier this year. Gregoire also suggests a 6.2 percent reduction in levy equalization payments, which help school districts that have lower levels of property-tax support. All combined, a total of $2.2 billion in cuts is proposed.  HIGHER EDUCATION: Easing limits on tuition at the state’s colleges and universities is expected to bring in an additional $330 million. There would be 11 percent increases at the University of Washington, Washington State University and Western Washington University; 9 percent increases at Central Washington University, Evergreen State College and Eastern Washington University; and a 10 percent increase at community colleges. Higher education would also see across-the-board budget cuts of 4.2 percent at both four-year schools and community and technical colleges, saving the state $102 million. Pay increases for staff and faculty at community and technical colleges is suspended as well. Savings of $27.1 million.  HEALTH CARE: Eliminates the state’s Basic Health Plan, which subsidizes health insurance to 66,000 poor Washingtonians, for savings of $230.2 million. Eliminates “Disability Lifeline” grant and programs, which provide financial assistance for people who have temporary disabilities and those who are temporarily unemployable. Savings of $321.3 million.  PENSIONS: Ends the automatic yearly pay increases for some state pension plans, a move estimated to save the state $368 million for the 20112013 budget and would cut the state’s unfunded pension liability of $7 billion by nearly 60 percent. Employees would lose about $600 a year, but over the next 25 years, the move would save state and local governments about $9 billion, the governor said.  STATE AGENCIES:

State agencies will be consolidated, and more boards and commissions will be eliminated. Twenty-one state agencies will be merged into nine for savings of $22 million.  PUBLIC SAFETY: Out of more than $2 billion in proposed spending, police, state prisons and other public safety sectors may see a reduction of $143.2 million, with a slash in staff and programs at the Department of Corrections accounting for $51 million. McNeil Island Corrections Center will be closed for a $17.6 million cut, something that had been announced before the governor’s budget proposal.  FERRIES: State ferries will reduce their average daily sailings from 505 to 477 in the next two years, including cutting one weekday, midday round trip on the Bremerton-Seattle route and eliminating some runs after 9 p.m. Runs between Anacortes-San Juan Island, among the San Juan Islands and Clinton/Mukilteo are also reduced.  TRANSPORTATION: Dozens of construction projects under way or almost launched, valued at more than $10 billion, will continue, with the state hoping thousands of jobs are saved or created by the projects.  STATE EMPLOYEES: State workers will pay higher health insurance costs and see a 3 percent pay cut in the form of furloughs.  STATE BUILDINGS SALE: Nineteen state buildings in locations ranging from Sunnyside to Olympia will be put up for sale.  STATE PARKS: The state parks system will lose half its income, with the state budget contribution being slashed by 77 percent. The cuts will total a saving of $47 million. Bills are expected to be introduced to grant the authority to raise fees and close parks that don’t generate revenue.  PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARY: The state will suspend the presidential primary in 2012, instead opting for only party caucuses. The suspension will save $10 million.  INITIATIVE 1029: Money for a voter-approved ballot measure that requires long-term home care workers to complete more training, pass a certification exam and undergo background checks will be suspended until 2013, saving $29 million.

Education less than basic under budget plan, cuts tricts, parents, teachers and community organizations has sued the state over the way it supports education. The lawsuit was brought by Network for Excellence in Washington Schools, a coalition of school districts, parents, teachers and community leaders that includes Chimacum and 29 other public school districts. A King County judge ruled on the case in February, saying the state was not fulfilling its constitutional obligation to fully pay for basic public education.

SEATTLE — Despite the shadow of a school funding lawsuit before the state Supreme Court, Gov. Chris Gregoire’s state budget plan made one thing clear Wednesday: The state isn’t likely to make any progress this year toward fully paying for basic K-12 education. Between cuts by the Legislature at last weekend’s special session, which affect the current budget, and the governor’s plans for the next biennium, state support for education is going Appeal to high court backward, not forward, The state has appealed thanks also to the sluggish economy and voters’ refusal the case to the state to raise taxes in November.

Ahearne said he thinks the problem that elected officials have is they don’t have enough money to pay for everything else in the state budget. Gregoire said Wednesday that part of the problem is the state Legislature has been too broad in redefining basic education, such as including things like all-day kindergarten. “We’re asking them now to suspend that redefinition. And there is nothing that would curtail their ability legally, in my opinion, to do that,” she said. Constitutional provisions were forefront in her mind when discussing what education cuts could be made in the next two-year budget, the governor said. In his February ruling, Superior Court Judge John Erlick acknowledged the state’s efforts at reforming the way it pays for education and encouraged lawmakers to continue that work. The Legislature approved

The biggest reductions were in K-12 education, through both the suspension of teacher pay and class size are in Initiatives 728 and 732, as well as a 10 percent reduction to a state scholarship and student outreach program. Also cut was $600 million that would have gone into additional spending on public education, the first phase of a multiyear plan that was dictated under a bill passed during the legislative session this year. Gregoire suggested a 6.3 percent reduction in levy equalization payments, which help K-12 school districts that have lower levels of property-tax support. Combined, these and other cuts to education save the state $2.2 billion over the next two years.

The cuts could result in fewer classes being offered, larger class sizes and fewer faculty positions. Gregoire’s proposal would allow colleges and universities to raise tuition for resident undergraduates at set amounts. For example, a student at a community college would see an increase of $280 in fiscal year 2012, followed by a $305 increase in fiscal year 2013. A student at the University of Washington would see his or her tuition

increase by $940 in 2012 and by $1,050 in 2013. Gregoire proposed a bump in financial aid to help offset costs for students. Her overall plan leaves the state’s operating budget with a balance of about $881 million.

In her budget proposal, Gregoire said there also wouldn’t be any money available to start paying for education reform during the next two-year budget cycle. She also proposed other cuts that will make it harder for school districts to make ends meet. The president of the state’s largest teachers union expressed grave concern about the impact of these cuts on children. “This budget is going to make it very difficult, if not impossible, for us to deliver the kind of education that our students deserve — that our state needs them to have,” said Mary Lindquist, president of the Washington Education Association. “Our students in our classrooms today, they shouldn’t have to wait for this recession to be over before they get the kind of well-rounded education we know they need.”

emergencies, and transfer about $400 million in funds from other accounts to the state’s operating budget. Earlier in the week, she announced pieces of her budget plan, including the consolidation of several state agencies, the elimination of three dozen boards and commissions, and changes to the state pension system. State workers also will see a 3 percent cut in pay through unpaid time known as furloughs, and Gregoire’s budget office said that about 2,000 fewer state positions will be filled throughout 2013, which will involve some layoffs.

Critics speak out A coalition of critics, including nurses, teachers and workers in community health, immediately spoke out against the proposal. David Flentge, head of Community Health Care in Tacoma, which serves lowincome patients, called the cuts “a great tragedy” that will affect “the lowest, most vulnerable residents of the state of Washington.” Lawmakers start their 105-day legislative session in January, and Democratic leaders in both the House and Senate will present their own proposals then. House Majority Leader Pat Sullivan, D-Covington, said that while the House proposal will likely not look exactly like the one Gregoire proposed, “any of the choices we make will have a serious negative impact on the social structure of our state, the education of our children and the future of our economy.”

the next step in education funding reform earlier this year, but lawmakers did not put a down payment on the new system.

“We are out of good options,” Sullivan said in a statement. Rep. Gary Alexander, R-Olympia and ranking Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, said the governor’s budget “includes some bold moves that are necessary if we’re going to break the cycle of unsustainable budgets moving forward.” Tax increases are not a likely option following the November election, where voters rejected several new taxes and placed renewed restrictions on the Legislature’s ability to raise taxes without a statewide vote. “I got the message; I heard it loud and clear,” Gregoire said. “I honor the voters of the state of Washington, and the budget is what it is.” Lawmakers this past weekend held a one-day special session to shrink the state’s current $1.1 billion deficit. Further spending cuts and other steps will be addressed in Gregoire’s proposed supplemental budget, set to be released Friday.

College waiting for word on effects of cuts Peninsula Daily News and news sources

Peninsula College administrators are awaiting word on exactly how much the mid-year cuts approved by the state Legislature will affect the school. The college is anticipating about a 3.8 percent cut to its $16 million budget,

said Deb Frazier, vice president of administrative services, Wednesday, adding that she expects to know the exact amount later this week or next week. “We were anticipating some sort of cut in the current year,” she said. “We had been told that it would be in the 6.3 percent range.”

The college — which is based in Port Angeles and also has campuses in Port Townsend and Forks — had already planned for a cut, Frazier said. “We set ourselves up well for this,” she said. “And President [Tom] Keegan has been saying for a year that we can get

through this, but we have yet to see what will happen in the next biennium.” Gov. Chris Gregoire’s proposed budget for the next biennium calls for more cuts to higher education. Aross-the-board budget cuts of 4.2 percent are outlined in her proposal for both community colleges

and four-year-schools, saving the state $102 million. Gregoire’s proposal would allow colleges and universities to raise tuition for resident undergraduates at set amounts. Ten percent increases in tuition are suggested to offset some of the cuts. That would mean that a

student at a community college would see an increase of $280 in fiscal year 2012, followed by a $305 increase in fiscal year 2013 in tuition. The state has raised tuition by 7 percent each year for the past two years in order to offset previous decreases in state funding.

Cuts: Class size plans Fish: Impact unknown Crescent School District Superintendent Tom Anderson said that, this year, he will watch expenses to take care of the $15,000 in reductions for elementary teachers, but that next year, reductions in staffing might be needed. Although the Education Jobs Fund cuts would amount to $95,000 for the district, Anderson said he never budgeted to use it. “That is money we never received and never intended to spend in the first place,” he said. Cape Flattery School District hasn’t yet calculated the impact of the cuts to elementary school teacher jobs, but the cut equal to the Education Jobs Fund money will eliminate about $140,000 to the district. “In the middle of the year with contracts, there isn’t much cuts you can make to staffing, so the only thing you can cut are programs — and then you are really impacting kids even more,” Cape Flattery Superintendent Kandy Ritter said.

Housing complex dedicated in PA By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — Community members packed the “community room” of the new Maloney Heights apartments on Wednesday to dedicate the supportive housing complex for the chronically homeless in Port Angeles. Port Angeles City Council member Don Perry said the studio apartments at 2311 W. 18th St. will “provide people in need housing during the holiday season.” “This is a beautiful facility,” Perry told an overflow crowd of about 100. Maloney Heights is part of a publicly subsidized $3.3 million joint venture of the Serenity House of Clallam County, Habitat for Humanity of Clallam County, Housing Authority of Clallam County and the Peninsula Community Mental Health Center. The idea is to get people off the streets and keep them out of jails and emergency rooms. Permanent supportive housing is designed for people who live on the streets who have roadblocks to housing, whether it’s a disability, criminal past, chemical dependency or mental health problems. Serenity House, which owns and operates Maloney Heights, hired case workers from Peninsula Community Mental Health Center to provide residents with counseling when they move in later this month. Kathy Wahto, executive director of Serenity House of

One of the 28 studio apartments that comprise the new Maloney Heights apartment building for veterans and disabled people who are homeless. Clallam County, said the dedication ceremony was “very satisfying.” “I was surprised by how many people came out,” she said. Maloney Heights is a “good investment of public money” that will provide a “safety net” for people who sleep on concrete floors or under bridges, Wahto said. Wahto estimated that Maloney Heights will serve about 40 residents per year. Roughly 10 percent will return to homelessness, she added. Residents will pay 30 percent of their income for rent. Eight units are reserved for veterans. The Serenity House permanent supportive housing center at the Tempest Building in Port Angeles has led to an 85 percent reduction in jail time for its residents, said Brad Collins, Serenity House capital improvements director and Port Angeles City Council member.

Maloney Heights was designed by Ron Wright & Associates Architects and built by Corstone Contractors LLC. It will have roof solar panels. Construction is nearly complete, Wahto said. Serenity House and the Housing Authority of Clallam County broke ground for the Maloney Heights apartments in April. Habitat for Humanity of Clallam County will build 14 homes on the same four-acre site in west Port Angeles over the next seven years. The total project adds more than $300,000 in public infrastructure, including streets and sidewalks.

Briefly . . . ‘Shop ’Til You Drop’ slated for today PORT ANGELES — Downtown stores plan a holiday celebration and special sales today. During “Shop ’Til You Drop,” more than 30 stores and shops in downtown Port Angeles and at The Landing mall will stay open until 8 p.m. Many will offer complimentary gifts, sales and discounts, drawings for door prizes and cocoa, hot cider and cookies. Shoppers who are at least 18 can also enter a drawing at participating stores for a prize of $500 in Downtown Dollars, which can be used like cash at many downtown businesses. The drawing will be at 8:15 p.m. in front of the downtown Christmas tree at the Conrad Dyar Memorial Fountain at the corner of First and Laurel streets. The winner must be present. Santa will hand out candy canes and be available for photos at The Toggery, 105 E. First St. Hot cider will be served from First Street Haven’s Christmas Room next to The Toggery. Participating stores will have special red shopping bags for purchases. Music by Double Exposure — Howard and Leslie Fisher, husband and wife DJs — will be heard throughout downtown, and caroling is planned in front of the downtown Christmas tree.

Levy meeting PORT ANGELES — The Port Angeles School Board will conduct a special meeting today to discuss minor changes to the resolution to place a maintenance and operations levy measure on the Feb. 8 ballot. The board will meet at 3:30 p.m. in the Central Services Conference Room, 216 E. Fourth St. The Clallam County Auditor’s Office requested that reference to specific laws be added to the levy language and that the title be changed, Superintendent Jane Pryne said. No other changes will be made. The measure, which the School Board approved for the ballot in September, will asks voters to approve a four-year levy that would provide the district with $8,178,067 in 2012 and would increase slightly each subsequent year. It would replace a fouryear levy that will expire in December 2011. That levy allows $7,439,312 to be collected in 2011. If the replacement levy is approved, the district estimates the rate would be about $2.64 per $1,000 assessed valuation in 2012. That means the owner of a $200,000 home would pay $528 in property taxes.

Speed limit PORT ANGELES — Watch your speed on Lake Dawn Road. Clallam County commissioners Tuesday voted 3-0 to pass an ordinance that lowers the speed limit on the residential rural road near Heart O’ the Hills campground south of Port Angeles from 25 mph to 20 mph. The ordinance also cuts the speed limit on the nooutlet east end of Township Line Road east of O’Brien Road from 35 mph to 20 mph. County Engineer Ross Tyler recommended the changes. All five speakers in a public hearing supported the changes, citing safety concerns.

DirecTV agrees to pay state $1 million in suit Fees to reimburse customers over ad, business practices Peninsula Daily News news services

OLYMPIA — DirecTV agreed to pay the state Attorney General’s Office $1 million to settle a lawsuit alleging unfair business practices that prompted about 2,000 consumers to lodge complaints against the firm in Washington state alone. The nation’s largest satellite TV provider also agreed to pay restitution to Washington consumers who have unresolved complaints against the company. On Tuesday, the company also announced settlements with 49 other states and the District of Columbia over complaints of false and misleading advertising and contract terms that consumers say were hidden in small print or not disclosed when they purchased

equipment to run the service. In announcing the settlement, the company issued a statement: “DirecTV is committed to always operating with the highest standards of integrity and will move forward with continued dedication to providing the best video experience possible for our customers.” In suing the company last year in King County Superior Court, state Attorney General Rob McKenna accused the company of having “built deception into their business model” and alleged a host of “unconscionable” business practices Washington was the first state to sue the company after trying for several months to resolve complaints, said Paula Selis, senior counsel with the Attorney General’s Office

and lead attorney in the suit. “A lot of this lawsuit is about changing their advertising practices,” said Selis. Among other things, the company would advertise a low monthly price but hide in “mice-type” the fact that it was a promotional price good for only one year of a two-year contract and that it required customers to file rebates.

Fees in contract Also hidden in small type, Selis said, were hefty “early termination fees,” charged, in some cases, to people who could not even receive the services for which they were being billed. The settlement requires DirecTV to “clearly and conspicuously” disclose the terms of service in relation to pricing so that people know it’s a promotion that requires them to file a rebate. Selis said the Attorney General’s Office began

receiving complaints about the firm in 2006. She said the company began voluntarily changing its advertising in 2009 in response to inquiries by attorneys general throughout the country. Selis said the settlement, to be filed today, should send a cautionary warning to any company relying on small print to communicate with consumers. Consumers who would like to obtain restitution for practices covered in the suit must have an outstanding complaint against the company that was filed after Jan. 1, 2007, but before May 31. To file a complaint, phone DirecTV customer service at 800-531-5000 or visit http://support.directv. com/app/ask. Complaints also may be filed with the state Attorney General’s Office online at www.atg.wa.gov/file acomplaint.aspx or by phoning 800-551-4636.

Hospital guild donates $40,000 to fire district, OMC for helipad By Jeff Chew

Peninsula Daily News

SEQUIM — Fire District No. 3 Chief Steve Vogel remembers the hassle and danger of clearing students from Sequim High School’s playfield to make it safe for air-ambulance helicopters to land, pick up and transport sick or seriously injured patients to Seattle or Port Angeles hospitals. Those days are gone. A $120,000 helipad was constructed this year near the Jamestown Family Health Center and Olympic Medical Cancer Center east of North Fifth Avenue in Sequim.

It has given money for Clallam County Fire District No. 3 emergency medical equipment and training, hospital medical equipment and medicine, and nursing school scholarships to Peninsula College. “Ladies give up Saturdays to keep it open,” guild President Jean Janis said of the thrift shop. Today, the guild has more than 100 members, who joke about paying an annual $5 membership fee to be volunteers for the guild. “That’s really unbelievable for a bunch of little old

ladies,” quipped Addie Curtis, the guild’s publicity chair. The guild also donated $25,000 this year to the Sequim Health & Wellness Clinic, which offers free services to the needy.

LAPUSH — Christian Esau “Jiggs” Penn Jr., a Quileute elder and the tribe’s only witness at the historic Boldt decision trial, has died after an eight-year battle with cancer. He was 81. Penn was an advocate for treaty rights and represented the Penn tribe as its witness during the 1974 lawsuit United States v. Washington, decided by U.S. District Judge George H. Boldt, which allocates 50 percent of the annual fishing catch to treaty tribes in Washington.

Fisherman “He was a fisherman all his life, fighting all the important fights for our people regarding our treaty rights,” said Lonnie Foster, vice chairman of the Quileute Tribal Council. “He was very gentle but had a strong, determined spirit and was very passionate about our kids and our culture.” His daughter, Ann Penn Charles, said he fought for everyone’s rights. “My dad was an advocate for everyone,” she said. “He encouraged everyone to do the best with what they had.”

The America Legion Freedom Riders Honor Guard will escort his body from Harper-Ridgeview Funeral Chapel in Port Angeles back to LaPush in honor of his service in the Korean War. Penn was born May 24, 1929, to Christian Esau and Lillian Payne Penn. He married Eileen (Humphreys) Penn, who survives him, 50 years ago in September.

Helped children The couple frequently opened their home and offered their help and support for any youth, family member and foster child in need. In addition to providing financial assistance for sporting gear for any child — as long as the child promised not to quit during the season — Penn also attended many Forks High School Spartan sporting events, according to information from the tribe. He also attended every softball and basketball tournament that involved any member of his family from Little League and up, and was a fast-pitch coach for the LaPush Rebellettes, the LaPush 1½ Pint team and the boys basketball teams.

In addition to his wife and daughter, both of LaPush, he is survived by a son, Christian “Sonny” Penn III of LaPush; another daughter, Fern Penn of LaPush; two sisters, Norma Penn of Muckleshoot and Hazel Black of Auburn; and three brothers, Dan Penn Sr., Esau Penn Sr. and Doug Pullen of LaPush; 12 grandchildren, Charlotte Penn, Marcus Penn, Michael Estrada, Natalie Jackson, Brigette Anderson, Stacy Harrison, Chance Black, Stephanie Calderon, Keya Rollman, Darryl Guerrerro-Penn, Eric Ceja Cisneros and Jasmine Summers; six great-great-grandchildren, Elizabeth Soto, Carlos Soto, Isaiah Jackson, Chastity Black, Marcus Penn Jr. and Sophia Calderon; and another great-greatDinner, services grandchild on the way.

While Penn was testifying in the lawsuit, a woman who was protesting spit on him, according to the tribal newsletter The Talking Raven. “About 10 years later, Jiggs received a call from her, asking to meet for lunch in Port Angeles,” the newsletter said. “She had always been very remorseful for her behavior the day she assaulted him and explained she got caught up in the heat of the moment. Jiggs says, ‘I thought that was pretty good,’ that this woman apologized for her actions,” the newsletter said. While in the Army, Penn received the Bronze Star, Korean Service Medal and United Nations Service Medal.

Commentary

Capitol Hill needs to speak simpler Even Rosetta Stone, the language-learning software that promises individuals they’ll soon “dream in French,” would be hard-pressed to translate the language of Washington. The etymology surroundCal ing the tax debate would Thomas stymie someone with a Ph.D. in linguistics. Just following the numbers, not to mention the assertions, is enough to produce blank stares of incomprehension. There is a debate about whether the estate tax should jump from zero to 35 percent, or 55 percent. Some liberal congressional Democrats claim they won’t consider voting for the “compromise” unless it is 55 percent. As The Wall Street Journal noted last weekend, the estate tax was 55 percent in 2001, with a $675,000 exemption.

In 2009, the top rate was 45 percent with a $3.5 million exemption. This year it has been zero percent with no exemption. Republicans and Democrats have attached new spending for pork projects in the tax rate compromise bill. Pork IS the universal language of Congress. This is fiscal irresponsibility. The reason America has a debt approaching $14 trillion is that government will not live within the means provided to it by people who earn the money. Sen. Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont, exposed the motives of liberals about progressive taxation. During a mini-filibuster against the deal struck by President Barack Obama and the congressional Republican leadership, Sanders said it is “greedy” to oppose a hike in the tax rates. “Greed is like an addiction,” he said, comparing it with heroin and nicotine. Sanders wondered how anyone could be proud to call himself a “multimillionaire?” One might ask how any U.S. senator could be proud to call himself a social-

ist? Besides, what business is it of government how much anyone legally earns? According to Sanders’ reasoning, if people resist turning over increasing amounts of their paychecks to government, they are greedy. The left is obsessed with punishing the successful, but even if billionaires and multimillionaires were taxed at a 100 percent rate, it wouldn’t get close to eliminating the debt. Cutting spending would. What word might best characterize a government that so misspends our money? Unconstitutional? Irresponsible? Outrageous? The class warfare game played by the Left leads nowhere. It is foreign to the Constitution and to our history. Every poor person would like the opportunity to become rich, or at least better off. Liberty and opportunity, not government, offer that chance if right choices are made and one develops a moral center. The Left’s real concern is that

too many people might become independent of government and have less “need” of politicians. Most politicians won’t let that happen unless forced to do so by the voters. The November election was a step in the right direction. President Obama’s latest manipulation of language is his shameless theft of a Republican idea. Last Friday, according to The Washington Post and an official of the administration, President Obama “directed his economic team to begin analyzing options for overhauling the U.S. tax code as part of an effort to trim the long-term deficit.” “The idea is simplifying the system, hopefully lowering rates, broadening the base,” the president told NPR News. Wait, I thought the lowered Bush tax rates were a threat to the country? The tax code has become complicated because Congress uses it to reward or punish companies or causes, which it favors, or opposes, depending upon which way the political wind blows.

Our readers’ letters, faxes

A simpler, more equitable code with lower rates would benefit taxpayers; the treasury would see tax receipts increase because more people would be paying taxes; there would be more capital available to the private sector for production of goods and services; and businesses could hire more people, who would become taxpayers. Congressional Republicans should scuttle the deal offered by the president and await reinforcements, arriving next month. They might then get a better deal. And maybe, just maybe, the new members will speak a language the public understands.

It’s more than character assassination Despite being granted bail, WikiLeaks founder and editor Julian Assange remains imprisoned in London, awaiting extradition proceedings to answer a prosecutor’s questions in Sweden. He hasn’t been formally charged with Amy any crime. His Goodman lawyers have heard that a grand jury in the United States has been secretly empaneled, and that a U.S. federal indictment is most likely forthcoming. Politicians and commentators, meanwhile, have been repeatedly calling for Assange to be killed. Take Democratic strategist and commentator Bob Beckel, who said on a Fox Business show: “We’ve got special ops forces. A dead man can’t leak stuff. . . . This guy’s a traitor, he’s treasonous, and he has broken every law

of the United States. “And I’m not for the death penalty, so . . . there’s only one way to do it: illegally shoot the son of a bitch.” U.S. Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., called WikiLeaks a “foreign terrorist organization,” and said that the website “posed a clear and present danger to the national security of the United States.” He went on: “This is worse even than a physical attack on Americans; it’s worse than a military attack.” One of Assange’s lawyers in London, Jennifer Robinson, told me, in response to the flood of threats: “Obviously we take these sorts of very public pronouncements incredibly seriously. And people making these statements ought to be reported to the police for incitement to violence.” One of Beckel’s co-panelists on Fox said what needed to be done was to “cut the head off the snake,” a phrase which, ironically, gained more significance when it appeared days later in one of the leaked cables.

dor to the U.S. Adel al-Jubeir “recalled the king’s frequent exhortations to the U.S. to attack Iran and so put an end to its nuclear weapons program. ‘He told you to cut off the head of the snake.’” Assange has found support in some surprising quarters. Conservative Harvard Law professor Jack Goldsmith blogged: “I find myself agreeing with those who think Assange is being unduly vilified. . . . “It is not obvious what law he has violated. . . . I do not understand why so much ire is directed at Assange and so little at The New York Times.” (WikiLeaks has partnered with several news organizations, including the Times, in its document releases.) Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, the former chief of staff of Secretary of State Colin Powell, joined a group of former government officials in a letter of support for Assange, writing: “WikiLeaks has teased the genie of transparency out of a very opaque bottle, and powerful forces in America, who thrive on

secrecy, are trying desperately to stuff the genie back in.” Likewise, from a feminist group in Britain. Since the principal, public reason for Assange’s arrest relates to questions about potential sexual crimes in Sweden, Katrin Axelsson, from the group Women Against Rape, wrote in a letter to the British newspaper the Guardian: “Many women in both Sweden and Britain will wonder at the unusual zeal with which Julian Assange is being pursued for rape allegations. . . . “Women don’t take kindly to our demand for safety being misused, while rape continues to be neglected at best or protected at worst.” Assange, in an op-ed piece published in The Australian newspaper shortly after his arrest, wrote there is a chorus in the U.S. State Department of “‘You’ll risk lives! National security! You’ll endanger troops!’ by releasing information, and ‘then they say there is nothing of importance in what WikiLeaks publishes. It can’t be both.’” In a statement released to

Australian television, Assange said: “My convictions are unfaltering. I remain true to the ideals I have expressed. . . . If anything, this process has increased my determination that they are true and correct.” Extradition proceedings are complex, lengthy affairs. WikiLeaks, for that matter, is not just Assange, but a geographically distributed network of people and servers, and it has promised that the work of facilitating the release of documents from governments and corporations will continue. The U.S. Justice Department, if it pursues a case, will have to answer the question: If WikiLeaks is a criminal organization, what of its media partners, like The New York Times?

Hunters decline across the U.S. By Todd Richmond The Associated Press

MADISON, Wis. — Classroom desks and office cubicles stand empty. Hunters in blaze orange stand out like drops of bright paint against brown fields. Pub parking lots are crowded with pickup trucks draped with deer carcasses. This is WisconAlso . . . sin’s gun deer season, a tradition as ■ Peninsula ingrained in this hunting not rugged state’s iden- what it used tity as beer, brats to be/B3 and cheese. But as the years slide by, fewer people seem to care. Hunting’s popularity has waned across much of the country as housing tracts replace forests, aging hunters hang up their guns and kids plop down in front of Facebook rather than venture outside. The falloff could have far-reaching consequences, hunting enthusiasts say. Fewer hunters mean less revenue for a multi-billion dollar industry and government conservation efforts. It also signals what could be the beginning of the end of an American tradition. “As paradoxical as it may seem, if hunting were to disappear, a large amount of the funding that goes to restore all sorts of wildlife habitat, game and nongame species alike, would disappear,” said Steve Sanetti, National Shooting Sports Foundation president. Hunting generates billions in retail sales and pumps hundreds of millions of dollars into government conservation efforts annually through license sales and federal taxes on firearms and ammunition sales. But fewer hunters return to the sport each year.

PA claims 5th straight to start year Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — The Port Angeles girls basketball team stepped on the gas in the second quarter of Wednesday night’s matchup with Bremerton. And just like the Roughriders’ first four Olympic League opponents to begin the season, the Knights didn’t have the firepower to catch up. Jessica Madison shredded Bremerton for 27 points and Taylyn Jeffers added 15 to lead the Riders to 69-43 victory. It was Port Angeles’ fifth straight to begin the season, keeping it one game ahead of rival Sequim in the Olympic League standings. “I felt like we played really well defensively,” Rider head coach Mike Knowles said. “It took us a while to get going. “But our ball pressure started to get to them finally in the second quarter.” With 6-foot-2 Bremerton pivot Jalen Carpenter out of the game because of foul trouble, the Riders started attacking the basket in that frame. The resulting 17-8 run gave the Riders (5-0 in league and overall) the separation they needed to cruise to victory. They put on the finishing touches in the fourth, outscoring Bremerton 21-9. “It was one of those games where the whole game long you’re up by 20 and you think you’re only up by five,” Knowles said

Money worries UW foe

Decline in 33 states The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service estimates 33 states saw declines in hunting license sales over the last two decades. The sharpest drop was in Massachusetts, which has seen a 50 percent falloff in hunting license sales during that time. Millions of Americans still hunt, of course, and some states have seen increases in license sales over the last 20 years. But the overarching decline has outdoor advocates worried. Suburban sprawl has consumed prime hunting land, forcing many hunters to choose between driving for hours to get to the woods or staying home. Gerald Feaser, a Pennsylvania Game Commission spokesman, said his state’s urban footprint has nearly doubled since the early 1980s. “Whole farms turned into housing developments or shopping malls,” he said. “Once that land is lost, you can’t get it back.” More children are growing up in front of computer screens rather than romping through the woods. “Fifty years ago, a lot of kids would hunt and fish and be outside,” said Mark Damian Duda, executive director of Responsive Management, a Virginia-based natural resources research group. “Now it’s easier to sit in your playroom and play video games.” Craig Hilliard, 65, runs the Pheasant Inn, a Briggsville, Wis., resort that doubles as a deer registration station. He said he knows about two dozen hunters who have retired from the sport. “There are not enough of the young people taking up the sport to replace who’s retiring,” he said. The dropoffs have hurt state conservation agencies that rely heavily on license sales for funding. In Massachusetts, the lost revenue has hampered the state’s habitat restoration efforts and its ability to repair its vehicles. State wildlife officials have pooled resources with other conservation groups and pursue federal grants more aggressively, said Marion Larson, a Massachusetts Department of Fish and Game biologist. “It’s forced us to be more creative with money we have,” Larson said. “That’s going to continue into the future, and not just here in Massachusetts.” Turn

Kansas City Chiefs’ Derrick Johnson knocks the ball loose from Seattle quarterback Matt Hasselbeck (8) in the second half a Seahawks loss three weeks ago in Seattle.

Always be closing Seahawks flailing down the stretch in important games The Associated Press

RENTON — Pete Carroll stresses almost constantly about the fourth quarter, whether in reference to an individual game or concerning the season as a whole. Problem is, his Seattle Seahawks appear to be regressing as the most important stretch of the season arrives, having dropped five of their last seven as injuries have piled up and Seattle has struggled facing some quality teams. And now they’re being asked this week to try to break their skid against the Atlanta Falcons, who at 11-2 are the best team in the NFC.

“Particularly here at the end of the season where everybody’s working hard, everybody is the recipient of the benefit of playing together for so long,” Carroll said. “[If] you get your stuff right you should be playing better, better, better as you go along if you’re doing things right, and it doesn’t feel like that. It feels like we’ve gone back and forth.” Seattle thudded last week against San Francisco in a 40-21 loss to the 49ers when there was a chance to take control of the NFC West race. It was the capper to a fiveweek stretch where Seattle played just five strong quarters that

resulted in a pair of victories over 4-9 Arizona and 1-12 Carolina. All five of Seattle’s losses during this stretch since reaching 4-2 after a Week 7 victory over Arizona have been by an average of 23 points. As Lawyer Milloy said after Sunday’s loss in San Francisco, “When we lose, we lose in grand fashion and that’s not good.” Seattle’s downturn started in a 33-3 Week 8 loss against Oakland. Heading into that game, Seattle ranked second in the league at stopping the run, and while not great, ranked 24th in rushing. Turn

Hawks/B3

The money will be flowing for the Washington Huskies this year. But it’s not because UW is visiting its first bowl game in eight years: a Dec. 30 rematch with Nebraska in the Holiday Bowl in San Diego. The Huskies earned the Pac-10 $2.2 million for that appearance, since all bowl money is sent to the conference and split evenly with every other school as part of the conference’s revenue-sharing plan. What has UW enjoying a little more dough is the Pac-10 earning two spots in Bowl Championship Series games this winter — Stanford (11-1) in the Orange Bowl and Oregon (12-0) in the national title game. Those contests pay as much as $18 million.

Plain broke The green isn’t so great on the other side of the mountains in the Great Plains. As Tom Osborne conceded this week, the Nebraska Cornhuskers will go to San Diego to reap touchdowns only. The cash will have to wait for the Huskers’ move to the Big Ten next fall. “Right now, we’re going to probably lose money on this bowl,” the school’s athletic director said Tuesday, noting how Chancellor Harvey Perlman supported the approximate $150,000 cost of flying the band to the game. The simple reality for a school like Nebraska that doesn’t quite make it to an upper-tier BCS bowl is that expenses almost always exceed revenue. Osborne said he believes Nebraska broke even on last year’s Holiday Bowl trip, largely because the band was unable to travel. Turn

Since that loss to the Raiders, both areas have headed downward. Seattle can’t stop the run and outside of its two victories during this seven-game stretch, can’t run the ball themselves. The Seahawks have gone from second to 20th in the league in stopping the run, partly due to key injuries to defensive linemen Red Bryant and Colin Cole. Offensively, despite Marshawn Lynch’s arrival and acclimation into the offense, there’s been no improvement. Seattle’s now 31st in the league in rushing, ahead of only Indianapolis.

But at least the Colts make up for their inability to run the ball with the top pass offense in the league. Seattle’s ranks 16th and just watched quarterback Matt Hasselbeck throw four interceptions for the fourth time in his career.

Turnover trouble The regression is also showing up in turnovers and third-down conversions, two key stats that have helped tell the story of Seattle’s season. The Seahawks had just 10 turnovers through the first six games and 17 in the last seven, while forcing only seven during that stretch.

Hunting: Down Continued from B1 Michigan, meanwhile, has seen a 31 percent drop in overall license sales over the last 20 years, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The ensuing revenue losses mean wildlife officials haven’t been able to fill 35 vacant positions and have taken a less detailed approach to managing the deer population. In Pennsylvania, license sales have dipped 20 percent over the last two decades. The state’s game commission has had to cut spending by about a million dollars in the last two years, cutting back efforts to repopulate pheasants, leaving 30 positions unfilled and asking employees to repair their own vehicles, Feaser said. Decreasing license sales in Wisconsin, one of the nation’s destination spots for deer hunting, hasn’t been as drastic, falling 2.5 percent over the last 20 years. But the dropoff has grown dramatically steeper in the last decade. License sales for the state’s traditional November firearms deer hunt dropped 9 percent between 2000 and 2009. A fee increase in 2005 has kept revenue relatively flat over the last decade, said Joe Polasek, the state DNR’s budget director. But the money hasn’t covered rising expenses such as building rentals and health insurance, preventing the agency from filling about 60 positions. To help stave off the losses, states and outdoors groups have been stepping up efforts to retain and recruit hunters.

The U.S. Sportsmen’s Alliance, the National Shooting Sports Foundation and National Wild Turkey Federation launched the program Families Afield in 2005 that calls for states to scale back youth hunting regulations. Thirty states have since reduced or eliminated minimum hunting ages, NSSF spokesman Bill Brassard Jr. said. Michigan officials have offered more hunting workshops for women and children. They also hope to use a federal grant to bolster participation in a decades-old program that pays some landowners up to $10 an acre to let hunters onto their property. Only about 50 farms out of potentially thousands currently participate, state officials said. Wisconsin’s Department of Natural Resources is researching how best to use social networking to recruit kids into the sport. The agency also expanded its Learn to Hunt program last year to offer reimbursements to hunting clubs and associations that teach children and novices about the sport. The National Shooting Sports Foundation’s Sanetti said his organization is working to recruit new gun owners who rushed to purchase firearms out of fears President Barack Obama would stiffen gun regulations into hunting. But the hunting fabric continues to fray. Jeff Schinkten of Sturgeon Bay, Wis., is president of Whitetails Unlimited, a national conservation organization that works to preserve deer hunting.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Mike Williams, above, returned to practice Wednesday after missing last week’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.

On third downs, Seattle’s offense is converting at just 32 percent in the past seven games, while its defense is giving up nearly 45 percent of third-down chances. “Really we just got to do right all the time. We’ll have plays where nine guys will do it right and two won’t do it right. We need everybody on board all the time,” Seattle receiver Mike Williams said. “You never know what play is going to be the play that makes the difference. “Guys have to focus, we’ve got to finish.” Finishing is what Carroll has preached even early in the season when Seattle was a surprising 4-2.

Players note that in their victories, Carroll isn’t really concerned about what happens early, just as long as they’re playing well and winning late. But that consistency has been absent and the reason Seattle’s in the situation it faces with three weeks to go and unsettled playoff chances. “We are not consistently playing the way a good team plays where you don’t hurt yourself and you don’t put yourself in bad situations and give away opportunities to your opponent,” Carroll said. “We are still working at that.”

THERE WAS A time when the opening of deer hunting season inspired the masses on the North Olympic Peninsula. Phil Henry remembers those times well. After all, he was one of the guys called in to deal with the chaos 30 years ago. “That used to be-all consuming, and we just don’t have that anymore,” the longtime state Fish and Wildlife enforcement officer said. “Back in 70s and 80s we’d have at least 10 game wardens in the area that we’d ship in [just to deal with all the hunters]. Now we don’t.” Indeed, hunting season doesn’t carry the same cachet it once did on the Peninsula. Participations numbers for deer season — generally, a good barometer for hunter interest — during the past 14 years peaked at the turn of the millennium (38,259 hunters in 2000). Those numbers declined by nearly 42 percent the next year and have not come close to pre-2000 levels since. While hunter interest is generally higher in rural areas like the Peninsula, it certainly isn’t immune to the same issues that hamper its popularity among urban residents. He said his 33-year-old son, Oliver, recently gave up the sport after years of seeing no deer and taking care of a newborn child. “I miss my son and wish he was out here,” Schinkten

Henry said the generational differences are likely a reality on the Peninsula — and the effects of developments have played a part as well. So, too, did the hair slippage disease that plagued deer during the late 1990s and early 2000s. “The deer population has tanked,” since the disease first became prevalent, Henry said. “The only places you see abundant populations of deer [are places] like Diamond Point or the suburban areas around Sequim or the downtown area of Port Townsend.” Such locations offer ample forage for animals to feed on as well as safe zones away from hunters and animal predators, according to Henry. “Whereas, in our rural areas, our [deer] populations are just a mere fraction of what they were 20 years ago,” he said. Elk hunts aren’t as popular either, with license purchases reflecting the same pattern as deer season the past 14 years. All in all, it’s just a different era for hunting on the Peninsula. “You get local hunters and they do OK,” Henry said, “but hunting isn’t what she used to be.” Matt Schubert, Peninsula Daily News said. “Hunters better be concerned. “If it keeps going like this, it’s not going to be good. We lose hunters, we lose license sales. “It’s just a vicious circle.”

After dozens of deaths, drop-side cribs outlawed The Associated Press

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the end of the traditional crib that has cradled millions of babies for generations. The government outlawed drop-side cribs Wednesday after the deaths of more than 30 infants and toddlers in the past decade and millions of recalls. It was a unanimous vote by the Consumer Product Safety Commission to ban the manufacture, sale and resale of the cribs, which have a side rail that moves up and down, allowing parents to more easily lift their child from the crib. The new standard requiring cribs to have fixed sides would take effect in June. The move by CPSC would also prohibit hotels and child care centers from using drop-sides, though those facilities would have two years to purchase new cribs. CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum hailed the new standard for cribs as one of the strongest in the world. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe these new standards will markedly reduce crib-related hazards and help to ensure that young children sleep more safely in their cribs,â&#x20AC;? Tenenbaum said after the vote.

Suffocate or strangle Around for decades, drop-side cribs have come under scrutiny in recent years because of malfunctioning hardware, sometimes cheaper plastics or assembly problems that can lead to the drop-side rail partially detaching from the crib. When that happens, it can create a dangerous â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vâ&#x20AC;?-like gap between the mattress and side rail where a baby can get caught and suffocate or strangle. In all, drop-side cribs have been blamed in the deaths of at least 32 infants and toddlers since 2000 and are suspected in another 14 infant fatalities. In the past five years,

A sample of the Bassettbaby drop-side crib made by Bassett Furniture Industries Inc. is shown. more than 9 million dropside cribs have been recalled, including cribs from bigname companies such as Evenflo, Delta Enterprise Corp. and Pottery Barn Kids. Michele Witte of Merrick, N.Y., lost her 10-monthold son, Tyler, in 1997 when the drop-side rail on his crib came loose, partially detached and then trapped his neck between the rail and the headboard.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;A long 13 yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a long 13 years,â&#x20AC;? said Witte. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a celebratory time because things are finally being done about the issue.â&#x20AC;? Witte appeared at a news conference on Capitol Hill with Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, Rep. Jan Schakowsky, D-Ill., and Rep. Joe Crowley, D-N.Y., all of whom have pushed for stronger crib safety rules.

The new standard mandates tougher safety testing for cribs, tests that more closely mimic a child in a crib. As children get older, they can apply more force to the crib â&#x20AC;&#x201D; shaking on it, running around in it, jumping up and down. The new tests aim to make sure the cribs can take that kind of pressure. Better labeling on crib pieces will also be required â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a measure that aims to cut down on the misassembly problems that some parents have encountered, problems that can lead to the death of a child. Parents who lost their children in drop-side cribs say Wednesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ban couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come soon enough. Chad Johns, whose 9-month-old son, Liam, died in a drop-side crib in 2005, said he was a little relieved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long time coming,â&#x20AC;? said Johns from Roseville, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the fact

that it is happening â&#x20AC;&#x201D; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what is important.â&#x20AC;? Crib makers were already phasing out drop-side cribs over the last couple years, amid increasing problems with them. Last year, the organization that sets voluntary industry standards â&#x20AC;&#x201D; ASTM International â&#x20AC;&#x201D; approved a drop-side ban. Many parents, however, still have drop-sides in their homes. They can also be found at secondhand stores. Parents who are using drop-side cribs are advised to check the hardware on the cribs to be certain itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working properly and to make sure their crib has not been recalled. The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association, which represents over 90 percent of the crib industry, says properly assembled drop-sides that havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been recalled can be safely used.

Parhamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawyers, who filed the lawsuit in state court in San Francisco on Wednesday, have asked that it be certified as a class action. The lawsuit doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seek damages; it asks the court to bar McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s from advertising any meals that feature toys to California children. McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s said it is proud of its Happy Meals and intends to vigorously defend its brand, reputation and food. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We stand on our 30-year track record of providing a fun experience for kids and families at McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s,â&#x20AC;? the company said in a statement.

The consumer group said it is focusing on McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because it is the largest fast-food company and spends more money marketing to children than its peers and could serve as a leader if it makes reforms. The Center for Science in the Public Interest has a track record of getting the food industry to change its practices.

those expenses, the group said. In this case, the center claims McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is engaged in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;highly sophisticated scheme to use the bait of toys to exploit childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s developmental immaturity and subvert parental authority.â&#x20AC;? The toys encourage children to eat nutritionally unbalanced Happy Meals, which in turn promotes obesity, according to the centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s complaint.

SAN FRANCISCO â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A mother of two and The Center for Science in the Public Interest are suing McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Corp. to get the fastfood chain to stop using toys to market meals to young children. They say McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is violating several consumer protection laws by marketing its Happy Meals directly to young children because it exploits childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vulnerability.

McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest burger chain, is facing scrutiny for including toys with meals. San Francisco recently prohibited them in meals with more than 600 calories or more than 35 percent of their calories from fat. Santa Clara County, home of Silicon Valley, has a similar ban. But city leaders in Superior, Wis., this month decided against regulating toys in fast-food meals.

Questions and comments get responses I sat down to write yet another column about Medicare, but then I thought to myself, “I don’t have the intestinal fortitude to do another one of these right now!” (Actually, what I really thought to myself was considerably more colorful than that, so use your imagination and thank me for my good taste). So, I decided to regurgitate (metaphorically speaking) some of the questions and comments I’ve gotten from a number of you; generally, if one asks, many are wondering. And while I concede that some of these are Medicarerelated, you’ll also note that there does appear to be life beyond Medicare. So: Tell me the truth: Is there anything relating to “death panels” in the health care reform law? No. We’re in the middle of open enrollment for Medicare Part D and Advantage Plans.

Birthday Mary Jorissen Longtime Port Angeles resident Mary Jorissen will celebrate her 96th birthday today, Dec. 16. She was born and raised in Fingal, N.D., the youngest of four and the only daughter born to her parents, John and Johanna (Flaker) Wurzer. Mrs. She came Jorissen into the family of three older brothers, Frankie, John and Herman. She married Gerritt F. Jorissen on Oct. 4, 1932, in Fingal. The couple had four children.

Did you hate being young? Do I have to have a will? Well, do you mean is there a law that says you have to? The answer is “no.” Nor is there a law that says you have to have a “durable power of attorney for health care” or an “advance directive” or a “community property agreement” or anything the heck else! Irresponsibility is splendidly legal. If you don’t particularly like whatever family you have, then by all means, do absolutely nothing. Do you work for the government? No. Do you work for the state? No. Do you work for the newspaper? No. Do you work for the radio station? No. Who do you work for? Information & Assistance, which is part of the Olympic Area Agency on Aging.

The Jorissens farmed in Valley City, N.D., until 1955, when they moved to Port Angeles. Mrs. Jorissen was a homemaker, and her husband was an employee shareholder of the Peninsula Plywood mill. Prior to his retirement, Mr. Jorissen was a maintenance supervisor at Peninsula College. He died in 1985. Later, Mrs. Jorissen worked at Angeles Nursing Home before retirement. Her family includes sons James of Santa Rosa, Calif.; Paul of Waterford, Mich.; Robert of Port Angeles; and daughter MaryAnn of Casper, Wyo. She also has 15 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren and several great-great-grandchildren. Mrs. Jorissen enjoys spending time with family, going to church

all means, be alone. A buddy of mine simply turns down the volume on his hearing aids, then spends the next 364 days telling stories about what he heard that he didn’t “hear.” Holidays aren’t joy-filled for everyone, and there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s surprisingly common. Just be sure that you’ll still feel OK about you the morning after. I HATE health insurance! Me, too. My Mom keeps sending me your columns. Do you think she’s trying to tell me something? Yes. I HATE growing old! Then don’t. Grower wiser, more accepting, more flexible. Quicker to laugh, slower to judge. Grow polite. Or helpful, or courteous, or generous, or . . . smart. Hate growing “old”? Then grow “young.” You know who “youth” is wasted on.

we and the doctors think is probably Alzheimer’s disease, and I take care of her at home. Sometimes, she “comes to” — out of nowhere. That happened the other day, and she wanted me to promise that I’d never put her in a nursing home. I was shocked, so I just distracted her until she forgot about it, but I feel terrible! What should I do? I’m sorry. I know how hard that is, and I know how much it hurts. Please, don’t make that “promise.” I’ve seen too many folks make it, then kill themselves (literally!) trying to keep it. If it happens again, just say something like, “I promise to always love you and be there for you,” then know that you told the truth. If she loves you as much as you love her, she wouldn’t want you to die proving it, and neither would you. I feel like the Grinch, but I just dread having my family come pick me up and drop me in the middle of mayhem for a whole day! What should I do? Nothing. Well, I suppose you could say “no,” but are you sure you really want to? I’ll bet you know that a lot of folks would give anything to have your “problem,” but if you’d truly prefer to be left alone, then by

Journal elicits varied responses DEAR ABBY: This is in regard to “Blocked Writer in Oklahoma,” who has been writing in journals for her son for 22 years and wonders when to give them to him now that he’s married and has a son on the way himself. I agree with you that giving them to him now would be unwise because he has too much going on in his life. She should give him a year’s worth of writings when his son turns 1, so he’ll know what his mom was going through when he was 1. Then give him another year’s worth when his son turns 2, etc. All I can say is, wouldn’t it be a great world if all kids had a mom like Blocked! Kathy in Edmond, Okla.

Dear Kathy: Thank you for your letter. Blocked may have been unsure of when to present her son with the journals she had been keeping for so many years, but readers experienced no writer’s block in expressing their views on the subject. Read on: Dear Abby: Any mother who secretly keeps a journal for 22 years has a screw loose. Instead of mothering, she sounds like she is smothering. For her to record every moment of her son’s life is an attempt to control him forever. That woman ought to get a grip and get a life of her own. Andrew in San Francisco

Dear Abby: I smell a narcissist! No new father has the emotional reserves to confront this encyclopedia. If the entries are all proud and glowing, great. But many narcissists time their gifts to steal some spotlight from other momentous occasions. I’d save the journal for a future date. Meanwhile, she should pitch in and help the new parents. This is one time when actions speak louder than words. Anonymous in West Orange, N.J.

Dear Abby: Giving the journal now would be a waste. She should continue writing. Her son’s life isn’t over; he is just beginning. Continuing the journal on his journey through life as a parent and memorializing her feelings watching him and her grandchild would be a better gift for the son to “find” once the mother is no longer here.

Talking to someone with experience will help you make a decision regarding where you want to be and what you want to do. A romantic connection will ease your stress and help you relax. 2 stars AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Let your intuition lead the way. Helping someone in need will give you a better sense of who you are and what you are capable of doing. Don’t let someone you love take advantage of your generous spirit. 4 stars PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You may want to make abrupt decisions and changes that will affect your status and your position, but hold off. There is time to take action and waiting for the most opportune moment will pay off. Patience and a sound strategy will bring the highest rewards. 3 stars

Van has window malfunction Dear Doctor: I have a minivan with a problem with the passenger-side window. The power-operated switch sometimes does not work from either the driver’s side control or the passenger’s. I’m very handy and would like to fix it myself, but I don’t know what the problem is. I recently replaced a switch on my son’s 1997 Buick Century. I bought a switch from Switch Doctor Online. I saved a lot of money. Can you diagnose my problem? Larry Dear Larry: You’ll need to remove the door panel and check for power at the switch (when the window does not work). The driver’s master power window switch is the power and ground for all windows. A master switch with a fault will cause your problem. Do not jump to conclusions; rather follow the test procedures. Check the Alldata website for step-by-step troubleshooting and color wire diagrams.
