GARDINER — A La Center couple who had been married more than 50 years died late Wednesday night in an apparent murder-suicide near Discovery Bay. The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office was summoned to clear the scene after medics from East Jefferson Fire-Rescue were notified of a 9-1-1 emergency call from Evelyn Carroll, 70. The call came in about 10:30 p.m., said Sheriff Tony Hernandez. “A distraught female said she murdered her husband and was going to shoot herself,” Hernandez said. Deputies were there in eight minutes and, after receiving no response to their knock and calls, kicked in the door of the time share condominium at 194 Orcas Drive, off U.S. Highway 101 near Gardiner. They found the husband, Leron Carroll, 74, lying on the bed with a gunshot wound to his torso, his

Terminal illness Relatives have been notified, and deputies have learned that Leron Carroll, a retired logger, was dying of liver cancer, said Chief Criminal Deputy Joe Nole. Since inclement weather prohibited helicopter flights near the scene in Jefferson County, the husband and wife were put into separate aid cars from East Jefferson and Discovery Bay fire departments and were heading toward the Hood Canal Bridge for transport from Kitsap County. They died en route before reaching the bridge, said East Jefferson Fire Chief Gordon Pomeroy. er R iv

Rep. Dicks introduces bill to give ONP land to tribe By Paige Dickerson

LaPush

Julie McCormick/for Peninsula Daily News

This complex of timeshare condominiums that overlooks Discovery Bay is where an elderly La Center couple were shot and later died in an apparent murder-suicide.

LAPUSH — Congressman Norm Dicks on Thursday introduced a bill in the U.S. House of Representatives that, if passed, will transfer 772 acres of Olympic National Park land to the Quileute tribe. The action is two-pronged. It provides 280 acres at the south side of the reservation in LaPush to the tribe to develop so

that it can move its school, elder center, tribal administrative offices and some homes to higher ground, away from flood and tsunami zones. It also transfers 492 acres at the northern part of the reservation to resolve a longstanding boundary dispute of more than 50 years with the park, which completely surrounds the reservation. That portion would remain

undeveloped, said Tribal Chairwoman Anna Rose CounsellGeyer. “I am extremely excited and look forward to the new beginnings it holds for our tribe,” Counsell-Geyer said Thursday, speaking from Washington, D.C., where she had met with President Barack Obama and members of Congress to discuss Native American issues.

From Coho to cafe New proprietor of popular PA eatery travels from old job to new in style By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — After finishing her last shift as a food service worker aboard the MV Coho ferry, Sheri Mackrow was greeted by a surprise. A white limousine was parked at the dock to pick her up from her old job and take her to a new one — co-owner of Shirley’s Cafe in Port Angeles. “This whole thing was a big surprise,” said Mackrow, 47, the daughter of retiring Shirley’s Cafe owner Shirley Cargile. “It’s been a big, long day.” Cargile will stay in Port Angeles and “have fun” after spending 15 years owning and operating the landmark breakfast and lunch eatery at 612 S. Lincoln St. She sold it to her daughter and son-in-law, Jim Mackrow. “I wanted to keep it in the family,” Cargile said.

“I wanted to keep it local. . . . They wanted to buy it.”” Cargile changed the name from Gordy’s Restaurant to Shirley’s Cafe and Memorabilia Museum in 2007. It is filled with photographic memorabilia and the Peninsula’s best license plate collection, plus a toy train that circles above the heads of diners. The Mackrows said they will keep Shirley’s Cafe’s name and continue to offer the popular breakfast items on the menu.

‘Breakfast all day’ “It’s the only place in town that serves breakfast all day,” Sheri Mackrow said. Jim Mackrow, Coho ferry chief mate, said they may add some Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News new twists after the transition Sheri Mackrow, left, laughs with her mother, Shirley Cargile, next to a limousine outside period but will mainly stick to a of Cargile’s Shirley’s Cafe on South Lincoln Street in Port Angeles.

Newsmakers Celebrity scoop ■ By The Associated Press

Cannon: Wife Mariah Carey having twins MARIAH CAREY IS going to be a mom twice over. Nick Cannon announced on his radio show Thursday that his wife is expecting Carey twins. Said Cannon on New York’s 92.3 station: “I haven’t even told my wife I’m doing this so I’m probably gonna get yelled at for not getting permission. . . . We are having twins!” Mariah Carey’s publicist, Cindi Berger, confirmed the news as well. Cannon said two VIPs did get the scoop: President Barack Obama and wife, Michelle. Carey told the first couple during a taping of a “Christmas in Washington” show. Cannon added: “Both babies are healthy, in tiptop shape.” Carey, 40, and Cannon, 30, have been the subject of a baby watch since they got married after a whirlwind romance two years ago.

Jolie told reporters Thursday she loves “Madrid and Barcelona mainly for art and great food.” Co-star Johnny Depp said he’s looking forward to seeing Pablo Picasso’s iconic “Guernica” painting. He also has friends in Madrid. “The Tourist” was nominated for the Golden Globe awards’ best picture, best musical comedy actor and actress.

Palestinian request RAMALLAH, West Bank — The Palestinians have asked European countries to recognize an independent state in the West Bank and Gaza Strip — a new step in the campaign to pursue statehood outside the framework of a peace deal with Israel. Peace talks with Israel have been deadlocked since September, prompting Palestinians to start exploring alternative ways forward. The campaign by President Mahmoud Abbas and his West Bank government aims to pressure Israel, though it will likely change nothing on the ground as long as Israel remains opposed. Palestinian negotiator Nabil Shaath said Thursday he asked representatives of several EU countries to recognize the truce lines before the 1967 Mideast war as the borders between Israel and a Palestinian state. Officials from two of the countries, however, said he made no formal request. The Associated Press

Obama claims major Afghan war progress By Ben Feller

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — At the height of the war he escalated, President Barack Obama on Thursday declared major progress in turning back America’s enemies in Afghanistan and Pakistan, promising U.S. troops will start coming home in July. Even so, he predicted four more years of combat, soberly warning the gains could slip away. Speaking to a nation weary of war, Obama said his year-old strategy was succeeding in its two primary military objectives: degrading the leadership of the Pakistani-based al-Qaida terrorists who attacked the United States and breaking the strength of the Taliban militants who once provided them haven in Afghanistan. Yet, his internal war review underscored huge challenges, too, from the terrorist sanctuaries in Pakistan to the desperate need for Afghanistan’s government to offer basic services to its people and rid itself of corruption. Put together, Obama’s words and the report’s findings underscore that his war strategy is here to stay.

On the issue that touches home most to millions of Americans, Obama stuck with his pledge that some U.S. forces would return home in July. But the scope of that withdrawal is expected to be modest and its pace is unknown, as the transition to Afghan forces taking control of their nation is expected to last through 2014. “I want to be clear: This continues to be a very difficult endeavor,” Obama said from his White House podium, flanked by fellow leaders of the government.

On track, thanks to troops “But I can report that, thanks to the extraordinary service of our troops and civilians on the ground, we are on track to achieve our goals.” He then made a point to remind the nation what those goals are, a sign of how long this war has gone on — launched nearly a decade ago and often overshadowed during that time by the Iraq War and the U.S. recession. “We will never waver from our goal of disrupting, dismantling and ultimately defeating alQaida,” Obama said of the terror network that plotted the Sept. 11,

2001, attacks from Afghanistan. The Taliban, which allied itself with al-Qaida, has been a resurgent force in Afghanistan, prompting Obama to mount a military offensive. Obama’s upbeat assessment — “in pursuit of our core goal, we are seeing significant progress” — comes as separate U.S. national intelligence estimates of Afghanistan and Pakistan paint bleak pictures of security conditions inside Afghanistan and of Pakistan’s willingness to rout militants on its side of the border. At the heart of the U.S. strategy is an accelerated mission to train and expand Afghanistan’s security forces so they can defend themselves. And a defining issue in the months ahead will be the degree to which the United States can get Pakistan’s cooperation in rooting out the terrorists within its borders. There are roughly 100,000 U.S. troops in Afghanistan, a record level, as well as 40,000 from NATO allies. More than 2,100 U.S. forces have been killed in the war, including at least 480 this year, the highest to date.

Acting quickly, House sends tax measure to White House The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Acting with uncommon speed, Congress sent President Barack Obama sweeping, bipartisan legislation late Thursday to avoid a Jan. 1 spike in income taxes for millions and renew jobless benefits for victims of the worst recession in 80 years. The measure also will cut Social Security taxes for nearly every wage-earner and pump billions of dollars into the still-sluggish economy. The 277-148 vote came less than 24 hours after the Senate cleared the bill, 81-19. The legislation was the result of a reach across party lines between Obama and top Republicans in Congress — stubborn adversaries during two years of political combat that ended when the GOP emerged the undisputed winner in midterm elections.

Quick Read

After forcing a delay in the House early in the day, Democratic critics settled for a separate vote in their bid to toughen an estate tax provision they attacked as a giveaway to the very rich. They were defeated, 233-194, with one vote of “present.”

‘Imperfect bill’ “The president will be able to sign it as soon as he likes,” said Rep. Rob Andrews, D-N.J. He said he was supporting “an imperfect bill” in hopes of stimulating job creation. House Republicans who will move into powerful posts when the GOP takes control in January urged passage of the bill. Largely marginalized in the negotiations leading to the bill, Democrats emphasized their unhappiness with Obama. “We stand today with only one choice: Pay the ransom now or pay

more ransom later,” said Rep. Brad Sherman of California. “This is not a place Democrats want to be,” he said. “But, ultimately, it is better to pay the ransom today than to watch the president pay even more, and I think he’d be willing to pay a bit more next month.” The bill provides a two-year extension of tax cuts enacted when George W. Bush was president, avoiding an increase at all income levels that would otherwise occur on New Year’s Day. It would also renew an expiring program of benefits for the long-term unemployed and enact a reduction in Social Security taxes for 2011 that would amount to $1,000 for an individual earning $50,000 a year. The bill’s cost, $858 billion over two years, would be tacked on to the federal deficit, a sore spot with deficit hawks in both parties.

Nation: Larry King leaves CNN chair after 25 years

World: Irish abortion ban violates women’s rights

World: In Abu Dhabi, Christmas decked in gold

Two presidents, four television news anchors and a 10-year-old son who looked ready to take dad’s place behind the microphone turned out to bid Larry King farewell as he pulled the curtain down on his CNN talk show Thursday after 25 years. King, 77, had announced this summer he would leave, ushered out by a struggling network. Once the dominant voice in cable television news, King has faded in a sea of sharp talkers. King has conducted some 50,000 interviews in a broadcasting career that began in radio. He’s recorded more than 6,000 shows since joining CNN in 1985.

The number of people infected with tuberculosis jumped by 50 percent in London in the last decade, making it the tuberculosis capital of Western Europe, a new report says. Unlike other countries in the region where tuberculosis is dropping, the disease is on the rise in Britain. In 2009, London had 3,450 cases of Britain’s more than 9,000 cases, according to an article published today in the medical journal Lancet. Most cases in Britain are in people born overseas. About 85 percent have been in Britain for at least two years, meaning the disease is not being imported but circulating locally.

Ireland’s constitutional ban on abortion violates pregnant women’s right to receive proper medical care in life-threatening cases, the European Court of Human Rights ruled Thursday, harshly criticizing Ireland’s long inaction on the issue. The court ruled that a pregnant woman fighting cancer should have been allowed to get an abortion in Ireland in 2005 rather than being forced to go to England for the procedure. The judgment put Ireland under pressure to draft a law extending abortion rights to women whose pregnancies represent a potentially fatal threat to their own health.

The $11 million symbol of the season has become the latest extravagance at the Emirates Palace hotel, which boasts its own marina, heliport and a vending machine that pops out small gold bars. The hotel’s general manager, Hans Olbertz, was quoted in local newspapers Thursday as saying the 43-foot faux fir has 131 ornaments that include gold and precious stones such as diamonds and sapphires.

Pending bill studded with earmarks Peninsula Daily News news services

WASHINGTON — In a year marked by anti-earmark fervor, lawmakers still managed to insert $8 billion worth of pet projects into the massive spending bill now wending its way through Congress. Chief among them is Sen. Patty Murray, D-Bothell, who got $219 million in earmarks into the $1.2 trillion omnibus spending bill released Tuesday, according to preliminary analysis by the Taxpayers for Common

Sense, a Washington, D.C., watchdog group. That amount once again appears to make the Washington Democrat and a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee one of Congress’s top earmark sponsors. Murray’s chosen projects are sprinkled throughout the spending bill, which would fund the federal government through September. Along with her Washington state colleagues, Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Mount-

lake Terrace, and Rep. Norm Dicks, D-Belfair, Murray directed $3.5 million for the Madigan Army Medical Center Trauma Assistance Program in Tacoma. A $350,000 earmark for “Cool Season Legume Research” bears the names of Murray and five other sponsors. Responding to growing outrage over government spending and ethical concerns, House Democrats this year banned earmarks to for-profit companies. The House Republicans

followed that by swearing off all earmarks, pressuring their reluctant GOP counterparts in the Senate to adopt a nonbinding ban of their own. Only the Senate Democrats have yet to formally renounce the practice. Despite all the pledges of reform, the $8 billion in earmarks in the FY2011 spending bill is down only 20 percent from the year before, according to Taxpayers for Common Sense. Some members of Congress are now turning their

backs on their own earmarks and saying they’ll vote against the bill Murray’s spokesman said she’s sticking to her earmarks “because they will help create jobs and boost local economies throughout Washington state.”

PT company Dicks, who helped to announce the House Democrats’ pledge against forprofit earmarks, continues to seek earmarks, particularly for defense projects. For instance, Dicks

inserted a $4.96 million earmark for Puget Sound Littoral Environmental Sensing Network. A Port Townsend company, Intellicheck Mobilisa, had been the lead contractor on that project since 2005, receiving $18 million in earmarks secured by Dicks. But now the money’s recipient is listed as the University of Washington, which for the past couple of years had teamed up with Intellicheck Mobilisa on the wireless project.

Trial set for Nov. 26 theft By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News

the watch. Police found drills, industrial lights and batteries from The Home Depot — along with three 40-inch Samsung flat-screen TVs and one 32-inch LG flatscreen TV — in Anthony Cortani’s 2008 Ford F3 pickup. Anthony Cortani told police that he had purchased the items. A Walmart manager told police that two of the TVs were purchased on a credit card belonging to Anthony Cortani. William Cortani was not charged. Clallam County Superior Court Judge Ken Williams released Anthony Cortani on his own recognizance in a preliminary hearing Dec. 1. The $4,000 bail that Anthony Cortani posted the day of his arrest was returned. He was ordered not to go to the Sequim Walmart or Costco stores. The maximum penalty for second-degree theft is five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

PORT ANGELES — A man accused of stealing two flat-screen TVs and tools from separate Sequim stores Nov. 26 faces a Feb. 23 trial on one count of second-degree theft. Anthony Cortani, 41, of Sequim is alleged to have taken the 40-inch flat-screen TVs, valued at $1,223, from the Sequim Walmart and $109 worth of tools from The Home Depot the day after Thanksgiving. He pleaded not guilty last Friday. A two-day trial is scheduled to begin Feb. 23 in Clallam County Superior Court. Costco employees told Sequim police that Anthony Cortani and William Cortani used a pocket knife to open Motorola Bluetooth packages and a Casio watch package before taking the items, court documents showed. Court records, which do not clarify the relationship, if any, between the two Cortanis, gave this account: When confronted by Costco employees at the store’s exit, Anthony Cortani __________ kept walking, and William Cortani stopped.

SEQUIM — The Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center is taking registrations for its first Sequim New Year Fitness Challenge on Saturday, Jan. 29. The friendly competition is intended to help keep people fit during the fattening holiday season and dark days of winter. “It gives people a reason to exercise during the holiday season, and it’s also a personal challenge,” said SARC fitness trainer Brandon Stoppani, who is organizing the event. Stoppani also teaches weight management, selfdefense and nutrition and exercise at the 610 N. Fifth Ave. public fitness facility. “It gives them a benchmark in which to improve. It’s a workout with strength benefits.” Prizes are being donated to winners of each age category who have the shortest times completing two stages of exercise.

The United Way of Clallam County is accepting applications from nonprofit health and human services agencies for annual grants. They are due back to the United Way office no later than Friday, Jan. 14. Allocations will be recommended to governing bodies in March, and grants will be made in April. For many years, the city councils of Port Angeles and Sequim, as well as the Clallam County commissioners, have allocated funds for human services. These local governments have contracted with United Way of Clallam County to advertise for, accept and screen the applications. Representatives from each of the governments work with the United Way Funds Distribution Committee to make funding recommendations. The respective city councils and the three county commissioners make the final funding decisions. Each government has set its own funding priorities and amounts for 2011. Sequim has allocated

$70,000. Port Angeles has set aside $56,250. Clallam County has reserved $58,200. Applications and details are available from United Way. Phone 360-457-3011 or send an e-mail inquiry to info@unitedwayclallam.org.

SEQUIM — The Rev. Henry Mulindwa, former priest administrator at St. Joseph Catholic Church, is returning to his home country of Uganda. “He has touched many, many lives here on the [North Olympic] Peninsula,” said Barbara Brown, a parishioner at St. Joseph’s. A farewell party for Mulindwa is planned from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at the Sequim Senior Activity Center, 921 E. Hammond St. Everyone is welcome, Brown said. Mulindwa, or “Father Henry” as he’s known, came to Sequim in January 2008 and served as pastor to the parish’s 750 households for 18 months. He then became the priest at St. Gabriel Catholic Church in Port Orchard, and the Rev. Victor Olvida succeeded him at St. Joseph’s in June 2009. Mulindwa’s visa is expiring at the end of this year, Brown said, so he is headed back to Uganda to await his next assignment from the Catholic leadership there.

Church service allows for Christmas blues Sadness can complicate the holiday, pastor says By Chris Henry Kitsap Sun

PORT ORCHARD — They called the baby “Wrinkle” because it put a little wrinkle in their lives. Garrett and Nikki Fisher weren’t expecting to get pregnant. They had just enough time to get excited when Nikki miscarried Nov. 17 at 12 weeks of gestation. The young couple, still mourning, joined about 30 other worshippers at a “Blue Christmas” service Tuesday at First Lutheran Community Church. “There seems to be a prerequisite for cheerfulness at Christmas gatherings,” interim Pastor Joe Smith told the small and subdued congregation. “This is a place you can be welcome and received just the way you are.”

‘Someone missing’ “It’s nice to be able to worship and feel God’s presence without having to put on the smile I put on every Sunday,” said Nikki Fisher, whose two other children are ages 3 and 17 months. “I had all sorts of ideas about how great this Christmas would be. To me, it feels like someone is missing.” Smith initiated the Blue Christmas tradition last year as a way to minister to those who were experiencing “brokenness” in their lives, through lost relationships, death, unemployment and other trials. “I suppose the older I get, I recognize how compli-

Boomgarden spent the last eight years of her life in a nursing home in Ohio. She called by phone often but hadn’t been able to visit in some time, so Norman was caught off guard by her sense of loss. “It kind of took me unaware that I would miss her as much as I do,” said Norman, whose children and grandchildren live in South Kitsap. “I just found myself, when I’m home alone, ‘Why am I so depressed? Everything’s decorated. The Christmas music is on.’ Then I put it together — Mom’s not there.”

cated Christmas can be,” said Smith, who is 40. “I continue to be amazed at what people face at this time of year and that the happy faces people put on is not what everyone is experiencing.” Blue Christmas services have been held at churches across the country over the past decade. They’ve become more common in the last two or three years, possibly because of the recession, Smith said. And, yes, he considered but jettisoned the idea of using Elvis’ “Blue Christmas” during the service. First Lutheran’s Blue Christmas included peaceful carols like “Silent Spotlight on pain Night.” The revelation that Christmas shines a spotCandle lighting light on loss and hardships Participants were is nothing new.

Shirley’s Cafe has built up a following on the North Olympic Peninsula, in part because it’s “family-run,” Cargile said. Cargile took it upon herself to ban smoking in the establishment, much to the joy of nonsmokers, according to a 2004 rave in the Peninsula Daily News’ Rants & Raves forum. During her 28 years aboard the Coho, Sheri Mackrow would offer salads from her mother’s restaurant. She put in her notice with the ferry company when she purchased the eatery at the end of the summer. Shirley’s Cafe is open every day from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. “I’ve had so many loyal and wonderful customers,” Cargile said. “They are so loyal to me.”

Dicks’ bill introduction follows action earlier this week that sent to Obama for his signature legislation giving the Hoh tribe, which is south of the Quileute, 37 acres of parkland so that it can move out of a tsunami zone and the floodplain of the Hoh River. In addition to the land for the Quileute, the bill also designates approximately 4,011 acres in the park as wilderness — a 4,000-acre tract near Lake Crescent and an 11-acre area near Boulder Creek, a tributary of the Elwha River.

Sequim shop hosts lottery commercial Peninsula Daily News

SEQUIM — Ranch dressing and mustard were among the ingredients of fake-bird-droppings crew members deposited on an East Washington Street sidewalk Thursday during the filming of a Washington State Lottery commercial. The commercial by Oh Hello Productions of Seattle — one of two that delve into new and exotic ways to pick numbers — is being shot in Sequim to promote the state lottery. Thursday’s shoot in front of Pondicherri, an imports and linen shop at 119 E.

Washington St., involved birds on a wire and what they are known to drop on cars. Actor Shawn Telford looked up in the sky for telltale signs of birds that could help him pick his lottery numbers by sharing their droppings. Ta ma’ra J. Elliott, Pondicherri manager, has scheduled a holiday open house from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. today to celebrate with visitors, friends and customers. Another commercial — this one involving a man in Velcro and a trampoline — will be shot at an East Sequim home today.

friend. The young man, who was like part of Stege’s family, took his life Oct. 6. He would have turned 25 on Dec. 18. “His birthday has always been tied into Christmas,” Stege said. “He was just the greatest kid.” During the service, Stege received a blessing from Smith on behalf of the young man’s family. “You can have peace in the midst of turmoil,” she said. “We all believe that we will see him again. It’s just that we miss him here, now. So it’s hard.” Stege and others talked about the need for quiet time in the holiday season, typically packed with frantic activity. She’ll try to find God amid the turmoil of buying gifts, preparing the holiday dinner and coordinating family gatherings. Lonnie Hanson of South Kitsap, attending the service to honor his late parents and grandparents, echoed Stege’s thinking. “It gives me an opportunity to remember them and pray for them,” he said. “We get caught up in our lives. We’re so busy, I don’t even make it to church half the time.” Hanson, who once fell away from organized religion, said he’s drawn to First Lutheran because of its congregation. “I walked into this church, and I’ve never felt so at home and so welcomed in my whole life,” he said. “This is the most nonjudgmental and welcoming church I’ve ever been to.” Smith will be leaving for a new congregation in January.

Many of the tribal structures are in a tsunami zone. “The Quileute day care facility, the elder center, tribal offices and tribal members’ homes are directly in the path of the tsunami that one day will surely come,” Dicks said when he ingtroduced the bill. “Getting the tribe out of danger is of great concern to all of us, and I am very pleased to introduce legislation to help the tribe move their people and infrastructure out of the danger zone.” Counsell-Geyer said that having the ability to move to higher ground would alleviate the worries tribal members live with daily. She said the tribe would not abandon the lower village but would move many structures out of the tsunami and flood zones. “The council has to provide protection and safety for our people,” she said. “With the threat of flooding every year, it puts people a little on edge wondering if this was the year it was all going to flood. “People have to live with that fear — and have lived

is available. In 2005 and 2006, during negotiations, the tribe, which owns the parking lot and trailhead to Second Beach, shut down access to the beach while it awaited word on the possibility of gaining higher ground. The exact boundary of the reservation has been disputed along the Quillayute River since a 1910 storm shifted the mouth of the river southward from the shore of Rialto Beach to just off the sand spit near Little James Island. To determine the boundary, the federal government conducted a land survey in 1914. The surveyor, while noting the former location of the river mouth, deemed that the boundary of the reservation ran along the middle of the river in its current location. When the park was created in 1953, the boundary was based on the 1914 survey. However, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in Moore v. United States in 1946 that the entire riverbed up to the north bank belongs to the Quileute tribe. The Quileute Reservation was established in 1889, based on a survey conducted eight years earlier.

Fight over Salish ferry not over yet Whidbey Island legislators vow to keep it on route By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — Legislators from Whidbey Island, across Admiralty Inlet from Port Townsend, vow to fight to keep the Salish on the route between the two terminals. Reassignment of the Salish, which had been promised to be added as a second boat on the Port TownsendCoupeville route in the spring, to the San Juan Islands is suggested as a cost-saving measure in the proposed budget submitted by Gov. Chris Gregoire on Tuesday. The idea — first broached as one of several from Washington State Ferries for cutting $17 million from its budget — will be among potential cost savings the state Legislature will consider after it convenes Jan. 10.

Not convinced Both Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen, D-Camano Island, and Rep. Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island, who serve as respective chairs of their chambers’ transportation committees, have said they are not convinced that the Salish must be lost to the route. “I will not support moving the Salish to the San

Juan Islands unless I am convinced there are no other options,” Clibborn said Thursday. “I do not believe that is true right now.” During the Nov. 14 inaugural sailing of the MV Chetzemoka — the sister ferry to the Salish that is now under construction — Haugen all but promised that the Salish will not be relocated. Clibborn said it was important for the state Legislature to follow through on the “promise” it made to provide the route with a second boat, something it has not had since the Steel Electrics were taken out of service three years ago.

SEATTLE — An internal investigation by the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office found that a sergeant had intimate relations with a woman for months while on duty, including in his patrol car. The investigation report on Steve Coney was obtained by KOMO-TV in a public records request. The investigation was launched after officers heard moaning over the dispatch radio. KOMO-TV reported that Coney admitted having intimate contact with the 23-year-old woman he met in November 2009. She wanted to become a deputy. He also used his work phone to send her text messages and to receive photos of her in lingerie. The 20-year veteran was fired just before Thanksgiving. The Sheriff’s Office said it was a personnel, not a criminal, matter.

Commentary

Fix the causes of state budget woes ELIMINATE THE CAUSE is sound logic if one wants to change the result, whether dealing with financial woes or personal or societal ills. A girl I called Lori dug Martha M. through her Ireland purse and searched under her couch cushions for coins to give her husband to buy milk for their babies. He returned home with beer, not milk. He didn’t have enough money for both, he explained. That incident enabled my niece to recognize the addiction that had trapped her family in poverty and abuse. Divorce is painful, but it was necessary in order for Lori and her children to achieve a better life, financially and socially. Blindness to addictions is also a barrier to solving public sector problems. Faced with a multibilliondollar budget shortfall, Gov.

Chris Gregoire rolled out a budget she “hates” — a word she also used to describe her 2010 budget proposal. Consolidating state agencies and selling some buildings — presuming there are buyers — may prove beneficial in the long run. Voters who said “NO!” to higher tax rates may be miffed when they don’t get a presidential primary or all the spending they demanded in passing other initiatives. It’s the litany of cuts to education, health care and public safety that Gregoire feels may not be moral. “Penny wise and pound foolish” is the adage Arlene Engel, one of the seven Olympic Medical Center commissioners, applies to Gregoire’s proposal to strip away an already thin safety net. Eliminating the entire social services budget wouldn’t save enough to fill the hole, said 24th District state Sen. Jim Hargrove, D-Hoquiam. What’s a governor to do when there is no money? The prolonged financial crisis may not be Gregoire’s fault, but ending it will require recognizing

addictions that contributed to it, and curbing them. Compared with other states, Washington is addicted to public sector labor unions. Trimming state employees’ compensation, benefits, pensions and numbers, as proposed by Gregoire, won’t break the unions, but it might appropriately moderate the effects of excessive deference to union political power. Gregoire might also propose curbing the state’s addiction to regulatory planning. Randal O’Toole, a senior fellow with the Cato Institute, traces the housing bubble, which is widely blamed for triggering the national financial crisis, directly to “the amount of regulation imposed on landowners and developers, and in particular a regulatory system known as growth management.” Jeff Monroe of Carlsborg, owner of Monroe House Moving, pointed me to O’Toole’s advice: “States that use some form of growth management should repeal laws that mandate or allow such planning.” (www.cato. org, Report 646) Politically, there is no chance of repealing Washington’s

Peninsula Voices

Growth Management Act — known as the GMA. However, in light of the budget crisis, it should be possible to slow down, or even halt, spending on re-planning and re-regulating, ad infinitum. Right now, Clallam County is spending a $1 million state grant on rewriting shoreline management rules. It is not that Clallam County did not have rules or even a situation where the rules were suspected of causing environmental harm. Rather, the grant came because state regulators wanted to develop a new model code. Clallam was ready, willing and eager. Before the GMA was enacted in 1990, most of the state’s 39 counties, including Clallam and Jefferson, already had zoning codes. The act required them to start over. The process has been repeatedly amended to assure that planning never ends. Meanwhile, failed culverts continue to block fish passage and dump silt into streams throughout North Olympic Peninsula forestlands.

Tax information

Mean article

In an effort to gain popular support of the tax bill now being debated and voted upon in Congress, President Barack Obama stated that the tax on earnings of the average household of $50,000 will go up $2,900 if the Bush tax cut are allowed to expire. Fox News, a Republicansupporting organization, also claims that an average family will pay $2,900 more in taxes. Both are deliberately spreading misinformation. As demonstrated by the 2010 IRS Form 1040, when we calculate the income taxes for an average family of four making $50,000, we find that the difference in taxes between incomes subjected to the Bush Tax cuts vs. no Bush tax cuts is $837.50. Yeah, $837.50 can buy a lot of groceries, but it’s not even close to $2,900. When are we all going to wake up, think critically and hold the Republicans, Democrats and government accountable for the half-truths, lies and misinformation they spread to justify their own self interests? Thomas A. Rogers, Port Angeles

Some people in the public media believe that, due to a failed romantic relationship, Maureen Dowd has become a nasty, bitter person. There are also some who believe she may be drinking too much, too often. This is probably just vicious speculation. However, her recent rambling, disjointed and downright mean article on Sarah Palin, Dick Cheney and the Republicans in general [“Pass the Ammunition and Caribou Stew,” PDN, Dec. 10] certainly does not indicate the work of a sober Pulitzer Prizewinning columnist. It is typical, however, of those who turn out their daily screed for The New York Times. The city of Port Angeles John J. Malone, should be ashamed of her Port Angeles neglect.

The culvert problem was identified at least 15 years ago. Each year, we fix a few and others fail. There’s never enough money to fix them all. There is never money to prevent more failures. The money always goes primarily to rewriting regulations, while process inflates the cost of each fix. Curbing our addiction to writing regulations would free resources to carry out real work, to heal the economy and the environment, under regulations already written. Will Gregoire and company recognize and curb their addiction?

Franny of Agnew: Jackson Browne’s “Runnin’ On Empty” — but don’t take that literally because there are wide open spaces between gas stations on Peninsula highways. All the responses were great, but I culled out three favorites:  A blogger identified as Forks Traveler nominated whole record albums “Endless Summer” by the Beach Boys and the compilation “Dr. Demento’s Greatest Christmas Novelty Songs” (especially “I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas”).  Kristin liked “We Gotta Get Out of This Place,” the British Invasion classic by Eric Burdon and the Animals.

“Mainly for driving out of Southern California,” Kristin said. Yesss!  And finally — perhaps appropriately for our region — Gerry of Port Townsend nominated the theme song from the TV series “Northern Exposure,” performed by David Schwartz. That’s especially good for when you’re behind the wheel and you encounter a moose wandering through your business district.

Inquisition that was initiated in the 12th century in France but flourished in Spain in the 14th-16th centuries where thousands of Jews, accused heretics and remaining Muslims (post reconquest of Spain) were killed or forced to flee; the Salem witch trials; the estimated 50 percent of all African slaves who died in transit or during the first year of captivity after being enslaved by Christian sea captains and landowners in the New World; and genocide by the Christian Serbs against Muslims in Bosnia. One’s particular brand of religious belief seems to have little impact on the severity of injury inflicted on the opposition, whether by individual religious fanatics or when religion and civil authority are united to wage holy war. There is sufficient blame to go around the circle when accusing one particular religious group of superiority over another. Richard Dorrell, Port Angeles

Dollar recirculation With the invasion of big-box stores with headquarters (and treasuries) far, far away, let us remember local businesses which have supplied our needs for many years. Of particular importance, we must remember that when we spend (invest?) a dollar in our local stores, at Swain’s for example, that dollar stays and recirculates here in Port Angeles and Clallam County. Oh yes, a few pennies may “trickle down” as sales taxes, but when we ship those big-box profits across America, we further enrich distant multimillionaires and those dollars don’t fund our Washington state programs such as schools, public safety, and parks. We have no connection with Swain’s — just some 15 years as satisfied customers after coming to the Peninsula. Milton and Ellen Patrie, Sequim

Birther overtones lace court-martial He can’t handle the truth. At least not while he’s facing the brig. Lt. Col. Terry Lakin of the Army had a motley crew of frustrated Birthers at his court-martial at Fort Meade, Md., on Tuesday. The decorated Pentagon Maureen doctor from Dowd Colorado became the movement’s hero when he went on YouTube in March to brazenly urge President Barack Obama to show “honesty and integrity” by releasing his “original signed birth certificate, if you have one.” He vowed to disobey what he called “illegal orders” to deploy to Afghanistan because he did not regard Obama as a legitimate commander in chief. Originally, Col. Lakin and his frenzied supporters had wanted to reveal the Ultimate Truth, what they consider the biggest hoax ever perpetrated — that a foreigner, a “Usurper in Chief,” had seized control of the Oval Office. But then the military judge, Col. Denise Lind, denied a request for President Obama to testify and for his birth certificate to be entered into evidence. So now the Birthers consider the court-martial part of the dastardly conspiracy. “This whole trial looks like a sham,” said Orly Taitz, a tall blond California dentist, lawyer and leader in the Birther movement. “I was raised in the Soviet Union. This was worse than what I’ve seen in the Soviet Union.” If Lakin ever envisioned his court-martial as the slingshot that could bring down a presidency and prove that the Birthers are heroes rather than loonies, he had given up that dream by the time he entered a guilty plea and backed up a notguilty plea with a technicality. The balding, gray colonel may not have truly changed his beliefs. But he looked small and shaken as he admitted to disobeying orders from his boss,

Gordon Roberts, a Medal of Honor recipient. He murmured “Yes, ma’am” over and over in a low voice as the precise Judge Lind pressed him on whether he understood that “the dictates of conscience do not justify disobeying a lawful order.” Sobered by the prospect of a dishonorable dismissal, losing his pension and serving hard time, as well as facing a panel of military superiors in dress uniforms, Col. Lakin said the winter had been “a confusing time, a very emotional time for me.” His shoulders slumped, he offered excuses about how he had gotten conflicting advice from lawyers — his defense was underwritten by Birthers. “I understand that it was my decision, and I made the wrong choice,” he told the judge. His civilian lawyer, Neal Puckett, said Lakin is innocent of the charge of “missing a movement.” Simply because he missed U.S. Airways Flight 1123 on April 12, which was supposed to be the start of his journey to Fort Campbell, Ky., to join his unit, the lawyer argued, does not mean he couldn’t have gotten another flight or driven. This was an attempt to get him off on a technicality because Lakin had stated back then that he had no intention of joining the unit at all. In the voir dire, Puckett asked some colonels who were prospective panelists if they considered the Birther movement to be racist. While disappointed there wasn’t a more full-throated trial of Obama’s provenance — unlike Lakin, the president is considered by Birthers to be guilty until he proves himself innocent — the Birthers, who had come from all over the country to the trial, stood by their man. Literally, in the case of Kate Vandemoer, a 55-year-old blogger and hydrologist from North Dakota, who rose with Lakin when he offered his plea. “I feel very close to him,” said Vandemoer. “This is a very serious national security matter.” Some argued that whether Obama was born in Hawaii is not really the point; the point is, he’s not “a natural-born citizen.” “You must be born in the U.S. with two parents who are U.S. citizens,” they explained.

Lt. Col. Terry Lakin Admits to disobedience Obama, they argued, has “a dual allegiance” that makes Americans “sitting ducks.” “His father was a British subject,” said a pamphlet passed out by Vandemoer. “He believes he is a citizen of the world.” Eldon Bell, a 76-year-old retired Air Force officer and doctor from Rapid City, S.D., said he “drove three days through a damn blizzard just to get here.” Comparing the president to Hitler, another “usurper,” he said “if he is not legitimate, our soldiers serving under him can be tried and hanged like the Nazis at Nuremberg.” James Haven, a black preacher from New York, dismissed Obama as “the longlegged Mack Daddy, the president of all pimps.” With the last three presidents, there has been an attempt to go beyond criticism to delegitimization, to paint them as not just wrong, but charlatans who have no right to the job. With Obama, the craziness is infused with biases about race and religion. But, in the end, the courtmartial offers one big truth: President Obama doesn’t have to show Terry Lakin anything. The colonel should have followed orders.

The Democrats’ lame-duck land grab Environmentalists hate sprawl — except when it comes to the size of their expansive pet legislation on Capitol Hill. In a lastditch lame duck push, eco- Michelle Malkin lobbyists have been furiously pressuring Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., to pass a monstrous 327-page omnibus government lands bill crammed with more than 120 separate measures to lock up vast swaths of wilderness areas. Despite the time crunch, Senate Democrats in search of 60 votes are working behind the scenes to buy off green Republicans. House Democrats would then need a two-thirds majority to fast-track the bill to the White House before the GOP takes over Jan. 5. Yes, the hurdles are high. But with Reid and company now vowing to work straight through Christmas into the new year (when politicians know Americans are preoccupied with the holidays), anything is possible. The Constitution is no obstacle to these power grabbers. Neither is a ticking clock. The Democrats’ brazen serial abuse of the lame-duck session is as damning as the green job-killing agenda enshrined in the overstuffed public lands package. Earlier this month, Reid assigned worker bees on three Senate committees — Energy and Natural Resources, Commerce, and Environment and Public Works — to draw up their

public lands wish list. All behind closed doors, of course. House Rep. Doc Hastings, R-Wash., rightly dubbed it a “Frankenstein omnibus of bills” and pointed out that the legislation “includes dozens of bills that have never passed a single committee, either chamber of Congress, or even been the subject of a hearing.” The sweeping bill bundles up scores of controversial proposals, including:  A stalled land transfer and gravel mining ban in Reid’s home state of Nevada.  The designation of the Devil’s Staircase Wilderness in Oregon as a federally protected wilderness where logging and road development would be prohibited.  Multiple watershed and scenic river designations that limit economic activity and threaten private property rights.  The creation of massive new national monument boundaries and wilderness areas along the southern border opposed by ranchers, farmers, local officials and citizens. One New Mexico activist, Marita Noon, said the federal plans to usurp nearly a halfmillion acres in her state would result in an “illegal immigrant superhighway” off-limits to border security enforcement. Security analyst Dana Joel Gattuso pointed to a recent General Accounting Office report on how environmental permitting rules and land-use regulations have hampered policing efforts at all but three stations along the border. This jumbo green goodie bag would be a threat to financial security for untold numbers of workers in the demonized mining, logging and construction

industries already reeling from economic hardship. Vigilant GOP Sen. James Inhofe has also called attention to how the Democrats’ ambitious water protection schemes would enhance the “broad, and unprecedented, scope of authority it grants EPA over state permitting programs.” In addition, restrictions on public access to newly expanded wilderness areas would hit hunters, fishermen and others in the recreation and tourism businesses. The eco-job-killers’ timing couldn’t be worse. The Obama administration’s de facto and de jure drilling moratoria have left Gulf Coast workers in crisis. Mom-and-pop fishing operations in New England are reeling from increased regulatory burdens. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar and energy czar Carol Browner’s War on the West has resulted in precipitous declines in new oil and natural gas leases on public lands. And Salazar’s recent expansion of the National Landscape Conservation System and Community Partnerships in the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) — by administrative fiat — will severely curtail energy development and tourism across more than 27 million acres of federally designated wilderness, conservation areas, rivers and monuments managed and protected by the BLM. The extreme preservationists have run amok. It’s time to fence them in.

Outdoors

I won’t permit this one phrase IF THERE’S ONE term I loathe typing, it’s “weather permitting.” It’s about the most obvious statement one can make about any outdoor activity. Isn’t it a given that Matt inclement Schubert weather often leads to cancellations, closures, delays and a host of other inconveniences in the outdoor realm? But every time I write something about Hurricane Ridge activities each winter, that phrase creeps its way into my life, thanks to some secret federal mandate that requires its inclusion in every news release. So let’s make a pact for the upcoming winter season. Anything that happens on the Ridge, be it the road, skiing, tubing, snowshoeing, snowball fighting or what have you, is weather dependent. If, for example, a blizzard wreaks havoc on the mountain, it’s likely that those activities are not going to be available that day (or the next, depending upon severity). Hurricane Ridge Road, which opens to seven-day-a-week access today, weather permitting (doh!), will probably be covered in snow and undriveable. And, of course, similar weatherrelated events (avalanche issues, cold and icy roads, etc.) can lead to closures and cancellations as well. I think this is a concept we can all understand. Thus, there’s no need to mention it again the rest of the winter. Just call Olympic National Park’s road and weather conditions hotline (360-565-3131) before you head up to the Ridge if there’s any doubts whatsoever. (Side note: Don’t forget all vehicles are required to carry tire chains when traveling above the Heart O’ the Hills entrance station during winter) So there you go. That’s the last you’ll see of “weather permitting” in any PDN outdoors column for the rest of the season. Permitting illness, a horrible car accident, job dismissal, obsessions pertaining to Jodie Foster . . . Well, I think you get the idea.

Peninsula College women’s basketball coach Alison Crumb, top center, speaks with her team at the start of a practice on Wednesday in Port Angeles.

Experience matters Peninsula women look to turn corner this year By Matt Schubert

Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — The lessons were harsh in Alison Crumb’s first year at the helm of the Peninsula College women’s basketball program. Young, inexperienced and thrust into the job a few months before the school year, the former Port Angeles High School and Peninsula standout took her lumps. Young players pulled in different directions as the then 24-year-old head coach struggled to reach them. Predictably, the Pirates stumbled, not only finishing last in

the NWAACC North Division with a 2-14 conference record, but also closing out the year on a 7-game losing streak. “I think when I realized we were going to be really bad it was hard for me,” said Crumb, a part of the Pirates’ last two playoff teams as a player (2005) and assistant coach (’09). “We were probably not the favorite in all but one game, and actually accepting that, I don’t think I accepted it very well. “It became a little overwhelming.” A year later, Crumb said she’s starting to feel more comfortable where she’s at. She’s learned a few things

she needed to learn as a firstyear head coach, and she’s ready to start applying them to a Pirates program that fell a long way in just two seasons. “I’m less worried about trying to make everyone else happy on this team,” Crumb said. “I’ve just come out more of like, ‘This is what I want, this is what I expect and this is what we’re going to do. Deal with it.’” While that approach may sound a little harsh, it’s something Crumb saw as necessary.

Team cohesiveness After all, one of the things that did the most damage to the Pirates last season was the lack of a cohesive team concept. A tug of war between Crumb and some of the players on the team led to disjointed performances on the court. Turn

Mistakes costing Seattle Hasselbeck looking to learn from some poor performances The Associated Press

Ski season? Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like the weather cooperated enough for an earlier-than-expected ski opener this weekend. While Hurricane Ridge mountain manager Craig Hofer wouldn’t completely rule out the tope tows being up and running by Sunday, the prognosis didn’t sound very good. “I really don’t want to say,” Hofer said. “I just don’t want to get anybody’s hopes all flying.” He and his volunteer crew still have at least a couple of days of work left to get the intermediate and bunny tows operating. And they can only get that work done when the weather cooperates (See how I just did that?). So all ski fans can do between now and Saturday is check the Hurricane Ridge Winter Sports Club website (hurricaneridge.com) for updates. Once things do get rolling, organized ski and snowboard activities are set for Saturdays, Sundays and holiday Mondays through March 27. (Ski school doesn’t get going until the second weekend in January.) The best bet might be for an opener the day after Christmas. Individual season passes for all lifts at Hurricane Ridge cost $200. A family pass for up to five costs $425 ($50 for each additional family member) All-day and half-day tickets for the bunny lift are $12. Tickets for the intermediate and bunny tows are $20 for half a day and $22 for a full day. Once the Poma lift becomes operational, all-day tickets for all three will be $27 ($25 for half day).

PA pulls off sweep Riders top PT, Bremerton in pair of duals Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — The Port Angeles wrestling team is rounding into shape at the right time. With the Battle for the Axe team dual tournament set to come to Port Angeles in less than a week, the Roughriders put up an impressive showing on Quimper Peninsula on Thursday night. Port Angeles scored back-toback dual victories over Bremerton and host Port Townsend, beating the Knights 48-25 and Redskins 51-21 in Olympic League action. Port Angeles (2-1 in league and overall) won by forfeit in four matches against Bremerton and two more against Port Townsend.

Preps

Port Townsend’s Kris Windle outscored his Port Angeles opponent, Kacee Garner, to win the 152-pound match during Thursday night’s dual meet in Port Townsend. Brian Cristion won each of his two matches by pin while jumping between the 171- and the 189pound weight classes, and Ozzy Swagerty pinned both of his opponents as well in the 119 class. Brian’s brother, state-ranked grappler Nathan Cristion, scored a pin in his only contested match

against Port Townsend’s Zac Olson at 189. Kody Steele also claimed both of his two matches for the Riders, one a 5-2 decision and the other by a pin in 33 seconds. Andrew Symonds won his match against the Redskins in just 29 seconds. Turn

RENTON — Matt Hasselbeck had never had a game like this before. Hasselbeck was responsible for a careerhigh five turnovers in S u n d a y ’ s Next Game 40-21 beat- Sunday ing at the vs. Falcons hands of the at Qwest Field San FranTime: 1:05 p.m. cisco 49ers. A win On TV: Ch. 13 would have ended the 49ers’ postseason chances and put the Seahawks on a collision course with the St. Louis Rams to decide the putrid NFC West. Instead, Hasselbeck was awful, tossing four interceptions and losing a fumble after being sacked Hasselbeck by 49ers linebacker Travis LaBoy. The turnovers led to 20 points for Alex Smith and the 49ers offense. The loss kept hope alive for the 49ers’ playoff chances at the time and left the Seahawks to question their progress. Hasselbeck knew this week’s film session wasn’t going to be a pleasant experience. “Monday was a bad day. I wasn’t feeling good Monday for a lot of reasons,” Hasselbeck said. Turn

SPOKANE — Gonzaga’s easy win Thursday night gave standout guard Steven Gray the opportunity to show some confidence in the Bulldogs’ chances this season. “We understand that we’re better than our record shows,” Gray said. “We understand that we’ve been playing all these big-time schools and bigtime teams. “It’s going to pay off in the long run.” Elias Harris led the Bulldogs (5-5) by tying his season high of 19 points and pulling down a season-high nine rebounds as part of a 103-61 win over LewisClark State. Harris led six Gonzaga players in double figures. Freshman Mathis Monninghoff nailed 5 of 6 shots from 3-point range for a season-high 15 points. Kelly Olynyk scored a career-high 14 points, Robert Sacre added 13, Sam Dower had 12 and walk-on freshman point guard David Stockton scored a season-high 10. Donte Roberts led LewisClark State (7-2), an NAIA Division I team, with 12 points. The Warriors listed the game as an exhibition and will not count the loss on their record. Gonzaga snapped a three-game losing streak despite losing Gray, the team scoring leader (16.8), with a toe injury in the first half.

Gray said he stubbed the big toe on his right foot and could have continued playing if needed. Gray, who scored three points in 10 minutes, said he would be ready for Saturday’s game with No. 9 Baylor. The Bears are 7-0, but Gray said the Bulldogs look forward to facing Baylor after already playing (and losing to) four Top 25 teams. “It’s been such a tough schedule,” said Gray, Gonzaga’s lone senior. “I don’t know what people were expecting from this squad going in.”

PA swim club BREMERTON — The Port Angeles Swim Club brought 25 athletes to the Olympic Aquatics Center Dec. 4 and 5 for the Fall Divisional Championships. Kaleb Sheldon swam his fastest times and won the 12-year-old boys pentathlon to bring home a trophy.

Nadia Cole broke the Port Angeles Swim Club record, held since 1992, for the 25-yard breast stroke with the time of 21 seconds. Jay Liang and Audra Perizo earned medals in the 13-and-over division while Cole, Sierra Hunter, Abby Smith, Lum Fu and Hailey Scott all earned certificates.

Roughriders’ athletes of the week PORT ANGELES — Hayden McCartney and Taylyn Jeffers were selected as the Port Angeles High School Athletes of the Week for their excellence in academics as well as their chosen sport. Hayden is playing his first season on the varsity basketball team and averaged 12 points, seven rebounds and three steals a game last week. Taylyn had a great week averaging 11 points, 12 rebounds and four steals in wins against North Mason and Olympic. She dominated the post area, defending girls much taller than her. Taylyn is a straight “A” student while taking honors classes and being involved in the school leadership programs.

Rough losses Gonzaga’s five losses have come against teams with a combined record of 46-4. The only unranked team to beat Gonzaga, 7-1 Washington State, is currently receiving votes in the Top 25 poll. Gonzaga shot a seasonhigh 60.7 percent. LewisClark State shot 32.3 percent, a season low for a Gonzaga opponent. Gonzaga sank 12 of 19 3-pointers (63.2 percent), compared to 4 of 19 (21.1 percent) for Lewis-Clark State. Gonzaga’s opponents had been hitting 40.1 percent of their 3-pointers, which ranked the Bulldogs among the worst teams in NCAA Division I. “That’s been our biggest weakness,” Gray said, “so we did take that as a personal challenge, that aspect of the game.” The Warriors received votes in the latest Division I poll, but they were clearly no match for the Bulldogs in size and athleticism. “The atmosphere was fun,” Lewis-Clark State

Briefly . . .

That includes the team’s leading scorer, freshman guard Megan Smith (13.3 points per game) of Coupeville. Meanwhile, Goodwin, the team’s on-the-court leader, has missed three games because of chronic tendinitis in one of her ankles. Those two players’ health, according to Crumb, will play a big role in just how competitive this year’s team will be. “If those two can consistently be in the game, we’ve got some good role players and we’ve got some good people out there and I think we can compete in our league,” she said. “Do I think we’re going to blow past people and we’re the favorites winning the North? No. “But I think our goal is to get to the tournament, and I think it’s totally attainable.”

Of course, as the Pirates’ record indicates, there’s still a long ways to go. With Crumb integrating seven new freshmen into the program, the coach still spends a lot of practice time going over play execution. The good news, according to Goodwin, is that at least everyone seems willing to learn this time around. And with a coach who’s already learned her fair share in such a short time, that just might all add up to something once everything is said and done. “We all come from completely different backgrounds, and we’re all willing to change how we play to benefit the whole team, which is opposed to last year when it wasn’t quite as selfless,” Goodwin said. “We all have the same goal in the end.”

Steelhead stunted

Trust me, future generations will surely thank you. As Dungeness River Audubon Center director Bob Boekelheide attests, birds are as good an indicator as any concerning the health of the environment around you. “[Birds] are an excellent bell weather,” Boekelheide said last year. “First of all they are visible. “Second of all you can have nonprofessionals out there making the observations. “So they are a really easy way for us to keep tabs on the natural world.” The Sequim-Dungeness count — the largest of the three scheduled in the area this winter — is set for all day on Monday. That particular count is responsible for some of the largest participation numbers in the region. In December 2007, Dungeness birders even observed a state-record 150 species. Boekelheide attributed a good deal of that to the species diversity enjoyed in Dungeness Valley. Although, it certainly doesn’t hurt that so many birders give a hoot around these parts. “We’ve been really lucky in this count having consistency in the areas being covered and the people doing the birding,” said Boekelheide, who expects 100-plus counters this year. “It looks like we’re going to have another great group. “It would be really good to have more people just as feeder watchers, but they should still get in touch with me first [to do that].” Admiralty Audubon will oversee a Christmas count of its own on Quimper Peninsula this Saturday. A Port Angeles-area count is set for Jan. 2. With all three counts, birders will hit the field all day before coming together for a dinner/potluck. Birders can help by covering a special route, joining another group or just counting their own neighborhood or backyard. Participation in each count costs $5, which also entitles volunteers to the Christmas Count issue of American Birds. To sign up for the Dungeness count, phone the River Center at 360-6814076. Those interested in the Quimper count can contact Dan Waggoner at 360-3855418 or danwags57@gmail. com. The contact for the Port Angeles count is Barb Blackie (360-477-8028).

It was a lost week for steelheaders on the North Olympic Peninsula. As I’m sure you’ve heard by now, all that rain took its toll on area rivers, rendering just about everything unfishable. Now that things are starting to clear up a tad, Bob Gooding of Olympic Sporting Goods (360-3746330) in Forks said, anglers might think about revisiting the West End. “They are down there fishing today at the [Bogachiel] Hatchery, and they are catching a few fish,” Gooding said Thursday afternoon. “It’s not like it’s tons of [fish], but a reasonable amount.” We’re approaching the traditional midpoint of the hatchery steelhead run on the Peninsula, so it seems safe to assume fish will arrive en masse this week and next. Surely, the recent splash of wet stuff brought a nice jag of them into the rivers the past few days as well. It’s hard to say for sure, however, because hardly a soul was fishing any of them until Thursday. As Gooding said: “You would have died if you tried to go fishing [Monday or Tuesday]. “It was ugly.” Anglers had a hard time even getting access to some of the smaller tributaries that drain into Strait of Juan de Fuca this week. Rising rivers shut down parts of state Highway 110 and 112. Thus, there was little news coming out of the Hoko, Pysht, Lyre and Sekiu. “The Lyre had been doing real well prior to all of this,” said Bob Aunspach of Swain’s General Store (360-452-2357). “So I expect things to be pretty good when things get back in.” Plunkers almost assuredly have a shot to fish those rivers now. They will likely even be fishable with conventional gear this weekend. Gooding said that could easily be the case with the Bogey. “The Bogachiel [today] it will be fishable,” he said. “It won’t be great, but it will be fishable. By Saturday it should be just about perfect . . . unless we get a Hunting clarification big splash of water.” There was something I wanted to clarify from Getting birdy Thursday’s story on the Birders can give the gift decline of hunting on the that keeps on giving this Peninsula. holiday season.

Five best bets for this week

Mike Reichner

Rosalind Reichner of Sequim caught this 25-pound yellowtail while fishing with her husband, Mike, in Bahía de Asunción in Mexico. The couple had three yellowtail in the boat within 20 minutes of their first day on the water and caught a number of bonita. As was noted in Thursday’s piece, participations numbers for deer season during the past 14 years peaked at the turn of the millennium (38,259 hunters in 2000) in Region 6. Those numbers declined precipitously the next year and have not approached 2000 levels since.

Also . . . ■ Crabbers have two weeks left to collect crustaceans on the Peninsula. Marine Areas 4 (Neah Bay), 5 (Sekiu), 6 (eastern Strait), 9 (Admiralty Inlet) and 12 (Hood Canal) all close to crabbing Jan. 2. ■ Just about all that’s left for big game hunters are the deer. Late muzzleloader (Hoko and Matheny GMUs) and archery elk (Pysht, Goodman and Clearwater) seasons ended Wednesday. Muzzleloader deer (Dickey only) came to a close on the same date, while archery deer (Coyle

and Pysht) goes through New Year’s Eve. ■ Hunters who report this year’s hunting activities for black bear, deer, elk or turkey by Jan. 10 enter themselves into a drawing for nine special hunting permits. All hunters, whether successful or not, are required to submit hunting reports for those species by Jan. 31. Hunters can report by phone (877 945-3492) or the Internet http://fishhunt.dfw.wa.gov. ■ Olympic National Park partner Discover Your Northwest is holding its annual holiday sale through Dec. 24 at three Peninsula locations: Olympic National Park Visitor Center in Port Angeles, Forks Recreation Information Center and Hoh Rain Forest Visitor Center. Discover Your Northwest members, as well as members of other national park cooperating organizations, are eligible to receive a 30 percent discount.

■ Lyre River steelhead — Lake Crescent’s drainage into the Strait of Juan de Fuca tends to clear up pretty quickly. Said Brian Menkal of Brian’s Sporting Goods and More (360-683-1950) in Sequim, “If you’re going to offer anything, [the Lyre] would probably be the way to go.” ■ Crab wading — I’m throwing this out there with one caveat: If rain comes pouring down again, all bets are off. As long as that is not the case, evening tides on Monday (-2.02 feet at 8:36 p.m.), Tuesday (-2.24 feet at 9:16 p.m.) and Wednesday (-2.20 feet at 9:57 p.m.) look promising for crab waders in Dungeness Bay. ■ Snow season — There’s plenty going on atop Hurricane Ridge this weekend, even if the rope tows aren’t operating. There’s skiing (you gotta hike back up) and tubing as well as rangerled snowshoe walks today, Saturday and Sunday at 2 p.m. Unfortunately, this does not include park passes. ■ Fish and Wildlife is seeking nominations for the Anadromous and Marine Resources Sport Fishing Advisory Group through the end of 2010. The group provides guidance to the state on issues affecting recreational fisheries for salmon, rockfish and other marine species.

■ Birdy business — Peninsula birders can participate in two separate bird counts this week (see today’s outdoor column). Add to the annals of history and count a few hooters. ■ Bowled over — Bowl season starts this weekend and for whatever reason I find myself nine games back in the PDN football pick ’em standings. If history has taught us anything, it’s that Arizona State graduates are far smarter than their Pacific Northwest brethren (Exhibit A: the immortal Jake Plummer). Thus, there’s no way I can lose to a Washington State (golf columnist Michael Carman) or Oregon (sports editor Brad LaBrie) alum in the world of pigskin prognostication. So you can take my bowl picks (listed on Page B3 of today’s PDN) to the bank. Doubt a Sun Devil at your own peril. Matt Schubert Jan. 1, pending marine toxin testing.

It’s a wrap for the winter Successful year for PT market

Peninsula Daily News

By Charlie Bermant Peninsula Daily News

PORT TOWNSEND — Saturday will be the last day of the season that local vendors offer locally grown produce and unique arts and crafts at the Port Townsend Farmers Market. The market — which is from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Tyler Street between Lawrence and Clay streets — will close for the winter after Saturday, with plans to reopen April 2, one month earlier than the opening date for 2010. This market — and its companion markets — close the year on a note of great success, market director Will O’Donnell said. In addition to the Saturday market, the Jefferson County Farmers Markets also manages the Wednesday Port Townsend market, which closed for the season in September and will reopen in June, and the Chimacum Market, which closed in October and will reopen in May. “This is the first time we have ever exceeded $1 million in total vendor sales,” O’Donnell said. “We are one of the largest, most successful market [organizations] per capita in the nation.” The Port Townsend Farmers Market draws between 1,500 and 2,000 visitors and 70 vendors each weekend during the peak season, O’Donnell said. This weekend, only about 30 vendors are

“Not only does it taste better, it has more nutritional value and hasn’t left a huge carbon footprint from being shipped 1,000 miles in the back of a semitruck,” she added. “You are getting local food that hasn’t been mass-

produced or grown in soil that is no longer fertile.” Money is not the only measure of success or quality for a market. “I’ve been to markets throughout France, and what we have here is just as good,” Feit said. “We have a unique and special market.” O’Donnell said the market “has a vast array of local food. “We are proud of this, as well as the fact that its availability is one of the reasons that people find Port Townsend so attractive and want to move here.”

Ceremony fetes Ridge Road schedule Peninsula Daily News

OLYMPIC NATIONAL PARK — A trip to Hurricane Ridge won’t cost a penny today as Olympic National Park celebrates the beginning of all-week road access to the popular destination. The $15 fee to enter the park via Hurricane Ridge Road will be waived for the day, said park spokeswoman Barb Maynes. The Ridge will remain open daily as long as the weather cooperates. The all-week schedule was made possible by about $75,000 raised in donations and another $250,000 in federal funds.

Officials with the park and city of Port Angeles will meet at noon outside the Hurricane Ridge Visitor Center to celebrate the new schedule, which is intended to increase tourism.

Shuttle service Also starting Friday is five-day-a-week shuttle service to the Ridge. All Points Charters & Tours will provide the service twice a day Wednesdays through Sundays from the Port Angeles Visitor Center, in front of The Landing mall, 121 E. Railroad Ave., and the Vern Burton Community

Center, 308 E. Fourth St. The departing times are 9:05 a.m. and 1:05 p.m. The cost is $10 per person. The fee to enter the park via the shuttle is $5. If driving to the Ridge, always phone the Road & Weather Hotline at 360-5653131 first to make sure a sudden snowstorm hasn’t closed the road. All vehicles (including four-wheel-drives) are required to carry tire chains. The Ridge offers downhill and cross-country skiing, snowboarding, guided snowshoe walks and sledding. The Visitor Center there is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

If this experiment is successful, it could be a model for other co-ops according to Griffin. “The more offsets purchased, the more our community will protect local forest lands from development while at the same time assisting local landowners with their investment in our environment,” Griffin said. “The service that trees provide to remove carbon dioxide from the air has gained more attention as climate change has become a global threat,” said NW Neutral manager Diane Moody, an event co-sponsor. “Forests that are wellmanaged can keep the carbon locked in their wood for multiple generations.” For more information, visit http://nnrg.org/ NW-Neutral.

$1,000 ToyoTa Cash BaCk

PORT TOWNSEND — The Food Co-op is sponsoring an event today to provide information about reducing carbon emissions while preserving local forests. “This program gives the local community a chance to protect land from development while supporting our neighbors,” said the coop’s outreach manager, Brwyn Griffin. “This gives them an alternative to selling their land or having to log it or develop it in order to make ends meet.” Representatives of the Northwest Natural Resource Group, a Port Townsend-based forest stewardship nonprofit, will be at the front door at the co-op at 414 Kearney St. in Port Townsend from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. to discuss the NW Neutral program. The co-op and the resource group will offer consumers a chance to purchase carbon offsets for $20,

which can be given as gifts. The certificates, which represent 1 ton of carbon, are part of a larger purchase by the co-op representing 60 tons of carbon and are connected to specific parcels of land that have committed to maintain their forested state for 100 years. The land, which has been placed into trust by the resource group, can be sold with a lien that requires the preservation of the forest portion of the land and must be followed by anyone purchasing that land.

Things to Do

QUILCENE — Fifteen volunteers recently pulled out invasive English ivy that is spreading in a state-owned wildlife preserve near Quilcene. It was one of a series of work parties organized by the Northwest Watershed Institute this winter to remove ivy and Japanese knotweed, another aggressive non-native plant, which are choking out native vegetation on two acres in the state Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Critical Habitat Preserve along lower Tarboo Creek and Tarboo Bay. “Ivy and knotweed, as well as English holly, are growing threats to fish and wildlife habitats throughout Western Washington and Oregon,” said Peter Bahls, institute director.

The Northwest Watershed Institute crew cut vines off trees, some more than 6 inches thick. This kills the ivy growing in the tree canopies. The crew and volunteers then use loppers or heavy duty hoes to cut free and roll back the thick mats of English ivy that cover the ground. Stray vines that could sprout are pulled out by hand. The ivy is then stuffed into burlap bags to biodegrade on site. After the non-native plants are removed over the next year, Northwest Watershed Institute will plant and then help re-establish native trees and shrubs at the site. This was the third ivypull event for volunteers at the mouth of Tarboo Creek since October.

Is love something you feel, Time of year Christmas or is it something you do? for caroling

Briefly . . .

SOME TIME AGO, a member of my congregation wrote, “I have a question I’ve been working on for 20 years: Is love something you feel or something you do?” And also this corollary question: “How can I love when I don’t feel it?” I responded as follows: Part of the reason for your long-standing struggle with this question may be a language-related one. This is because in the English language, the word “love” covers so much territory; it covers the territory of both “feeling” and “doing,” depending on what definition of love you’re working with. So is “love” something you feel? Well, yes, if you’re talking about what the Greeks spoke of as “eros,” which is powerful, sexual, biologically related attraction, indiscriminate in its orientation. Joseph Campbell humorously quipped that eros is “the zeal of the organs for each other.” So there’s definitely feeling connected with erotic love. And yes, again, if you’re speaking of the Latin, “amor,” which is more discriminate but still has to do with attraction. Amor is the delicious experience of eyes meeting eyes, mind communicating with mind, soul mating with soul, spirit soaring with spirit and body connecting with body. There’s certainly feeling here! And yes, if you’re talking about the love of parent to

Attraction can’t really be commanded. It doesn’t work to say: “I want you to feel attracted to that person.” Such a command tends to have the opposite effect; it creates resistance. Who can say how attraction is created, or why it stays, or why it leaves? In this regard, I think of the opening lines of a poem by Robert Bly in which he speaks of the end of attraction and the withdrawing of energy: Those great sweeps of snow that stop suddenly six feet from the house . . . Thoughts that go so far. The boy gets out of high school and reads no more books; the son stops calling home. The mother puts down her rolling pin and makes no more bread. And the wife looks at her husband one night at a party, and loves him no more. — “Snowbanks North of the House,” The Man in the Black Coat Turns So this is part of what makes life interesting . . . and a challenge: these two basic orientations of passion and compassion, of feeling and action, both covered by the same English word “love.”

Panel says it can’t cut pay of elected state officials Governor’s Office pushes idea as budget-woe remedy By Rachel La Corte The Associated Press

OLYMPIA — A commission that sets salaries of elected officials in state government said Thursday it can’t order a pay cut, as requested by Gov. Chris Gregoire. The governor and other statewide elected officials have asked that their paychecks be reduced by the same level expected to be cut from the pay of state workers. However, the Washington Citizens’ Commission on Salaries for Elected Officials said the state constitution forbids it from reducing pay and only allows it to freeze or raise salaries. “It would take a constitutional amendment to do that,” said Teri Wright, executive assistant for the commission. Elected officials can either write a check back to the state or donate to charity, Wright said. But Gregoire’s attorney, Narda Pierce, said that the commission is referencing a 1994 attorney general opinion that the commission can’t cut salary on its own but that “the advice they’ve been given in the past does not address the situation where elected officials

request the decrease.” Pierce said that the Governor’s Office would work with the attorney general as well as the commission to see if legally, officials who request a pay cut can have it granted by the commission. “We think they can,” she said. “It’s not a question that’s been answered.” Gregoire is grappling with a projected two-year state budget deficit of $4.6 billion. She unveiled a spending plan this week that proposes cuts across government, including to the pay of state workers.

3 percent cuts Gregoire announced a two-year agreement Tuesday with state workers that calls for a 3 percent salary decrease in the form of unpaid leave, as well as a 25 percent increase in health insurance costs. That same day, Gregoire sent a letter to the chairman of the commission, saying her 2011-2013 budget “must include some financial sacrifice for all state employees.” Gregoire wrote that she and other statewide officials believe “we should be subject to the same salary and

benefit reductions as all other state employees.” Lt. Gov. Brad Owen, Secretary of State Sam Reed, Attorney General Rob McKenna, Auditor Brian Sonntag, Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn and Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark all signed the letter. Insurance Commissioner Mike Kreidler sent his own letter to the commission asking for a pay cut. Treasurer Jim McIntire also sent a separate letter, asking the commission to freeze his pay. Gregoire currently makes $166,891 a year. McKenna is paid $151,718; Dorn and Goldmark each earn $121,618; Reed, McIntire, Sonntag and Kreidler each get $116,950; while Owen is paid $93,948. Jason Mercier, director of the Center for Government Reform at the Washington Policy Center, a conservative think tank, suggested lawmakers put a constitutional amendment on the ballot repealing the commission. The move would place accountability for elected officials’ pay squarely on lawmakers, he said. “As is the case with state employee compensation, these decisions should be made via the legislative budget writing process — not be off-limits from legislative prioritization,” Mer-

cier said in an e-mail. In light of the commission decision, the offices of Goldmark, Reed, Dorn and Kreidler said they would donate an equitable amount to charity, once the Legislature finalizes the reduction to state workers. Sonntag will increase his donation to the Tacoma Rescue Mission this month but would not disclose the amount, his spokeswoman, Mindy Chambers, said. McKenna was considering giving money to a nonprofit working to help overcome potential cuts to state services, perhaps one supporting foster care, McKenna spokeswoman Janelle Guthrie said.

Governor’s intentions Gregoire’s office did not immediately respond to questions on what action she would take. The commission was created by voters by constitutional amendment in 1986. The 16-member panel includes nine voters chosen at random by the secretary of state. The other seven members come from academia, business, law, organized labor and other sectors. The commission meets once every two years to set salaries, using consultants’ studies and discussing the changing duties and responsibilities of each office and other factors.

SEATTLE — An outof-control car careened down a steep hill at Seattle’s Pike Place Market on Thursday and injured three pedestrians, police and fire officials said. One of the victims suffered serious injuries. “He started hitting people like bowling pins. It was horrible,” witness Yaacov Reuven, a market musician, told KOMO-TV. It was not immediately known what made the driver of the car lose control. The 39-year-old male driver was arrested for investigation of vehicular assault, a felony, and booked into the King County Jail.

News of the seizure came as Seattle U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan announced that during fiscal year 2010, her office collected $16.6 million in criminal, civil and forfeiture actions. Federal prosecutors nationwide collected a record-high $6.7 billion. Next year’s total from the Western District of Washington could be even higher because it will include nearly $10 million in cash and property forfeited to the government during the prosecution of late Seattle strip club boss Frank Colacurcio and his associates.

Millions in seizures

SEATTLE — Foreclosure actions against homeowners in Washington and Oregon fell sharply in November compared with the month before, a national foreclosure tracking group said Thursday. Irvine, Calif.-based RealtyTrac said the numbers dropped 36 percent in Washington and 33.9 percent in Oregon. Nationally, such actions — processes ranging from an initial notice of default to actual repossession — were down 21 percent. RealtyTrac said the numbers reflected a seasonal trend as well as delays stemming from allegations against several banks that evictions were handled improperly. RealtyTrac said 4,067 properties in Washington had some sort of foreclosure action against them in November. With one in every 658 properties in the state affected, Oregon ranked 15th in the nation, while Washington was 17th with one in 686.

But that left few options for a lone pharmacist or for a pharmacy owner who has moral objections to a particular drug. Two pharmacists and an Olympia pharmacy owner sued the state shortly before the new rules took effect, arguing their constitutional rights were being violated. Kevin Stormans, coowner of Ralph’s Thriftway in Olympia, who is part of the lawsuit, said he would discuss with his lawyers what the next step in the case would be. Stormans said that because he believes that the medication has the potential to cause termination of a pregnancy, “that is something we cannot participate in.”

“The board understood that changing the current rule could force patients, especially those living in rural areas, to suffer lengthy delays to receive their medication and cause others to go without entirely.” Plan B is a contraceptive that can greatly reduce the chances of pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. Some pharmacists and drugstore owners, however, say they can’t sell the pills in good conscience because they consider Plan B’s effect on potential pregnancies too similar to abortion. Plan B is not the abortion pill RU-486. It contains a high dose of a drug found in many regular birth-control pills and prevents ovulation or fertilization of an egg. Plan B is available without prescription to anyone 17 and older. Purchasers must ask for Plan B at the pharmacy counter and show identification with their date of birth, and anyone too young to qualify for over-the-coun-

ter sales needs a prescription. In 2007, regulators on the state Pharmacy Board ruled that pharmacies could not refuse to sell a lawful product, like Plan B, because of moral or religious beliefs. A compromise rule was adopted that allowed individual pharmacists who had moral objections to pass the sale to another employee in the same store, provided the patient’s order was filled without delay.

Foreclosure actions down in Washington

0B5101787

OLYMPIA — The state Board of Pharmacy voted Thursday to not move forward with changing a rule that prohibits pharmacies from refusing to dispense all legal drugs, including the morning-after contraceptive “Plan B.” On a 5-1 vote at a meeting in Renton, the board stopped the rule-making process it had started in August that could have led to allowing pharmacists to refer patients to another pharmacy for “time-sensitive” medication, including Plan B and hundreds of other drugs. “They looked at the rule and said, ‘We think it’s worked fine,”’ said Tim Church, a spokesman for the state Department of Health. Gov. Chris Gregoire issued a statement Thursday night calling it a “good decision.” “I could not support a ruling that would limit a patient’s access to medication,” she said.

SEATTLE — Border Patrol agents arrested two men accused of trying to sneak into Washington state from Canada with more than $650,000, after the pair allegedly triggered a detection device set up near a hidden trail in Blaine. The two Mexican nationals, Fabian AriasRamirez and Sergio Arroyo-Rivera, had backpacks full of U.S. and Canadian cash sealed in plastic bags when they were caught late Wednesday night, the Border Patrol said. The two were charged with bulk cash smuggling and eluding examination at entry during an initial appearance Thursday at U.S. District Court in Seattle. The source of the money wasn’t immediately clear. Lawyers for the men had not had time to investigate the charges and did

not comment following the hearing. Arias-Ramirez and Arroyo-Rivera face up to five years imprisonment if convicted of cash smuggling and six months on the eluding examination charge.

QUILCENE — The winners of the North Hood Canal Chamber of Commerce Holiday Decorating Contest are Brett and Ashley Hoffman, 294955 U.S. Highway 101 in Quilcene, and Cindy and Greg Woodgate, 300 Appaloosa Drive in the Lower Lazy C Ranch in Brinnon. “Their respective displays are stunning, so much so that the judges could not agree on which is the better and so awarded two first prizes,” contest organizer Anne Ricker said. Harry Goodrich and Mary Merrill of 141 Frank

Beck Road in Quilcene took third. Ricker urges holidaylight enthusiasts to take an evening drive to Brinnon for Whitney Gardens’ spectacular show and Johnston Realty’s creche.

Then turn left onto Appaloosa to the Woodgates’ and the blue display at the end of the road. While there, drive up

Deal with mother’s ‘princess complex’

Tundra

DEAR ABBY: My father died this year. My husband and I were his primary caregivers. I was with him until his dying breath. After his passing, Mom asked us to move in so she wouldn’t be alone. She has post-polio syndrome, but her biggest problem is her “princess syndrome.” She has trouble getting around but is able to do some things while I’m at work all day. As soon as I walk in the door, she’s all over me to do simple tasks that she could have done during the day. She complains the house isn’t clean enough or that this and that aren’t done up to her standards. Abby, it was easier to take care of all my dad’s needs than it is to take care of hers! Her day consists of getting up at 10 a.m., watching soap operas and eating herself to more than 300 pounds. How do I deal with a mother with a major princess complex? Not Cinderella

For Better or For Worse

Pickles

Dear Not Cinderella: Do it by having a frank conversation with your mother and telling her exactly what you have told me, without labeling her a princess. You should also insist that she be screened by her doctor for depression. If her demands are more than you and your husband can deliver, then consider moving into a place of your own. However, if your mother realizes that the alternative is living alone, she may be inclined to compromise.

Frank & Ernest

Dear Abby: My husband of one year (at the time) was considered by everyone to be the most caring, good husband. But he never wanted to have relations with me. After several months of investigation, I learned he had been seeing prostitutes. He even admitted to me that when he did have sex with me, he was thinking of them. Fast-forward: I forgave him; we went to counseling. Abby, he still never wants to have sex with me! When we do, it’s because I initiate it. My self-confidence is shot. He says he “doesn’t have a sex drive,” so

Garfield

Momma

dear abby I can either accept him for all the posVan Buren itives — of which there are many — and not have a sex life, or not. I have considered fulfilling my needs outside the marriage and giving him the green light to do the same, but he’s against it. I’m at a loss as to what to do. Should I just settle and be happy with what I have? Wanting More in the South

Abigail

Dear Wanting More: You are obviously not happy with “what you have.” And a man who engages the services of a prostitute DOES have a sex drive. You both need to be completely truthful with each other. Once you have reached that point, you will know what to do, and you won’t have to ask me to make the decision for you. Dear Abby: My boyfriend and I have reached an impasse. He says that breakfast, brunch or lunch is an acceptable time to spend with my girlfriends but that dinner is “family time” and should be spent at home with him. He also says that girlfriends who spend a weekend away together are “up to no good.” I see no problem with it. What are your thoughts? Unsure in the Midwest Dear Unsure: Your boyfriend appears to be insecure, controlling and have a dim view of women. If you’re smart, you will find someone who is less easily threatened by female bonding and let this one go.

Avast! Here there be pirate tales Hadlock writer to sign books at maritime center By Diane Urbani

Peninsula Spotlight

Paz

PORT TOWNSEND — Whatever you do, don’t judge “Salty” by his cover. Marie Delaney, a singer, songwriter and sailor who’s traveled to 18 countries, is introducing Salty & the Pirates, a book and then some, in a free Delaney event from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. this Saturday. The setting is the Northwest Maritime Center at 431 Water St., around the big captain’s table in the Wooden Boat Chandlery store. Beyond its pages, Salty is “a family activity kit,” says Delaney. There’s the hardcover book part, a fully illustrated 16-chapter adventure story about a 10-year-old boy and his parents, who Delaney says are “pretty outside the box.” The tale comes with a glossary of nautical terms plus a Spanish glossary, since Salty makes a trip to Mexico. At the end, the boy falls asleep and dreams — in full color, with music. So Delaney has

own new images with, of course, the 24 colored pencils Delaney packed into the kit. There’s even a sharpener. The Salty & the Pirates kit sells for $44.95, though the Chandlery is offering it at a special price of $39.95, Delaney said. That price will last at least through the end of the year. Salty was inspired by two young men: Delaney’s son and stepson, who are now 36 and 37. And the “pirates” grew out of the many characters she encountered while taking her 1929 ketch, the Blue Water, around Puget Sound, Canada’s Gulf Islands and the straits of Georgia and Juan de Fuca.

Salty & the Pirates is an adventure story by Port Townsend-based writer and illustrator Marie Delaney.

Salty songs

tucked a CD inside the Salty kit, with songs from Salty’s dream plus a collection of sea chanteys. Delaney wrote four of them; the other eight are traditionals, or “non-traditionals that I rearranged and rewrote to be kidappropriate,” she adds. Delaney also provides the sheet music for piano and guitar, so readers can also sing the chanteys together. The visions Salty has in his dream are illustrated in the book — and the kit includes additional line drawings of them for children to color in. And then the page facing each drawing is blank, so they can draw their

From the time she bought the boat in 1988, she wrote songs, including “Salty’s Dream,” about a child falling asleep after a day at sea and dreaming of a fantastical underwater world. By 1999, Delaney had begun painting the images she describes in the song, and later turned those into the illustrations in the book. In 2002, she signed a two-year contract for national sales of Salty & the Pirates. The contract ended in 2004, and Delaney, then in Whatcom County, began working with a marine electronics firm while studying oil painting. She sailed

the Blue Water down to Port Hadlock last year to focus on a simpler life: fixing up the boat, painting and working on another book. At 56, Delaney has just found herself an art studio to work in, and joined the artists at Gallery 9, 1012 Water St., in Port Townsend. She’ll display new paintings there in January. As for Salty, she wants him to be a catalyst for families and friends to read, draw, color and sing together. “You can have the book on hand, and no matter what age person comes through, you can show it to them, and there will be something in it for them,” she said. “The story is really interesting,” she added, thanks to the experiences she’s had as a sailor. “I’ve seen and heard so many interesting things. With my art, my writing, my songwriting, I take inspiration from everything my senses have taken in.” On Saturday, guests will be able to sit around the captain’s table and see Delaney’s books, sketches and original drawings, added Molly Klupfell, manager of the Chandlery. To see art by Delaney and learn more about her book, visit www.Saltysworld.com or phone the Chandlery at 360385-3628, ext. 101.

PORT ANGELES — Good news for those who like to lift off via a good book: Nancy Pearl is coming after all. Pearl, the traveling librarian from Seattle, National Public Radio commentator and Book Lust author, was supposed to speak in Port Angeles on her latest, Book Lust to Go: Recommended Reading for Travelers, Vagabonds, and Dreamers, a collection of enthusiastic tips about books set in myriad places around the world: France to Wyoming to Trinidad and Tobago, to cover a tiny corner. She was to arrive the night of Nov. 22, but a blizzard across the North Olympic Peninsula kept her away. Now Alan and Cynthia Turner, owners of Port

Who needs coffee?” The Turners, regardless, are delighted about Pearl’s appearance, which comes toward the end of a national book tour. “We would like to thank the incomparable, inexhaustible Nancy Pearl for rearranging her schedule,” Alan said. “I really felt awful that we had to cancel the earlier appearance — that blasted snow! — and thought that if the Port Book & News folks wanted me to try again, I’d make time to do it,” added Pearl. For more details about Monday’s event, phone the bookstore at 360-452-6367. Pearl also invites readers to “follow my book thoughts” on www.Twitter. com, where she can be found at @Nancy_Pearl. Abundant thoughts on books are also available at www.NancyPearl.com.

Pearl is known for her apparently limitless lust for reading — and for letting people know about the best stuff she’s found.

Saturday afternoon. Julia’s sister Maria Tatum, 11, shares the role of Clara the dreamer with Mollie DeVoney, 14. Herr Drosselmeyer, presenter of the nutcracker, is portrayed by Bob Bronsink, one of the senior cast members. The party guests in Act I are a diverse group that includes Richard Stephens, the Port Angeles theater director, costume designer and Peninsula Daily News advertising representative. “They chose the biggest ham to carry the turkey” into the party, Stephens quipped. Enveloping it all is Tchaikovsky’s score, first performed on this weekend 118 Decembers ago in St. Petersburg, Russia. The Ballet Workshop production has the 43-member Nutcracker Ballet Orchestra, conducted by Dewey Ehling. This orchestra has drawn musicians from across the North Olympic Peninsula, Ehling said. Players from Port Townsend, Sequim and Port Angeles will perform in the two-hour production, which of course includes the Snow Dance, the grand pas de deux between the Cavalier and the Sugar Plum Queen, the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, the Spanish and Russian dances and the Waltz of the Flowers. So is this a thrill for the

orchestra and its conductor? “Oh, absolutely,” said Ehling, the 82-year-old maestro who also directs the Port Townsend Community Orchestra, the Peninsula Singers and the singalong edition of Handel’s “Messiah” in Sequim on Dec. 29. And to add just a little more to the experience, Wanner has brought in the Peninsula Chamber Singers, to sing during the snow scene.

Real-life Land of Sweets The two-act “Nutcracker” comes with a 30-minute intermission, during which Northwest Fudge & Confections will lay out a prelude to the Land of Sweets. This, Wanner says, is “a very inclusive art form. We incorporate so much more of the artistic community than people realize.” She has orchestrated it all, with a focus on telling the “The Nutcracker” tale in its simplicity and sweetness. Wanner expresses admiration for her star dancers, and for the youngest members of the cast. These kids range in age from 5 to 12, and “they are great mice, great bonbons,” Wanner says. “Then we have the soldiers,” dressed like wooden toys. “They look wonderful on stage.” This is the director’s “Nutcracker” swan song — yet she says it will not be the last for the Ballet Workshop. “It’s getting to be time for me to retire from doing huge productions,” said Wanner, 69. “I have a lot of help from a lot of fine people . . . and the cream always rises to the top. People who are desirous will reach out and do it. And I will say, ‘Bravo.’”

Arts center’s holiday show, sale By Diane Urbani de la Paz

Peninsula Spotlight

PORT ANGELES — A window shimmering with scarves. Cats lounging and, kind of, leering. Birds that fit snugly in the hand. Such is the diversity at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center during Art Is a Gift, the holiday show and sale on now through Jan. 2. The center’s gallery is as packed as it will ever be during the year. Foraging through it is like walking through the woods, with layers of things to see near your feet, at eye level and slightly above your head.

He hopes, of course, that gift seekers will venture up to the center and choose gifts fashioned by local and regional artisans. They’re a long way from the massproduced variety, and “make very personal statements when given to those you care about,” Seniuk says. The inventory will keep changing, as shoppers make their selections and space is freed up for more art, he added. Art Is a Gift will be open through Jan. 2; the center’s hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily through Christmas Eve, Dec. 24. After a one-day closure on Christmas, the hours will revert to 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. The center will be closed on Jan. 1, and then open the following day for the last chance at the art marketplace. For more information, visit www.PAFAC.org or phone 360-457-3532.
