PORT ANGELES — The Navy has issued a draft environmental assessment for a proposed pier on Ediz Hook to moor vessels that escort submarines from Hood Canal to the Pacific Ocean. The assessment, a 224-page document, is available online at http://go.usa.gov/tAr4. A printed copy can be reviewed at the Port Angeles Library, 2210 S. Peabody St. The Navy will host a public meeting on the pier proposal from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Jan. 12 in the Elks Naval Lodge, 131 E. First St., where officials will present information, answer questions and accept written comments. Oral comments will not be accepted. Written comments also may be emailed to NWNEPA@navy.mil or sent to Naval Facilities Engineering Command Northwest; Attention: NEPA Project Manager/TPS Facilities; 1101 Tautog Circle, Room 203; Silverdale, WA 983151101.
A rest stop The escort vessels, called the Transit Protection System, presently tie up at Port of Port Angeles terminals to comply with Coast Guard underway-hour limits and crew rest requirements between trips. The vessels, 33 to 250 feet long, screen and escort ballistic missile subs from Naval Base KitsapBangor through the Strait of Juan de Fuca. The Navy has rejected the current arrangement as insuffi-
cient to its mission. The proposed pier would extend from the southern shore near the eastern end of Ediz Hook at Coast Guard Air Station Port Angeles. The Navy has budgeted $16.7 million to build it. It replaced one of its original three alternatives with one that may please scuba divers and the Puget Sound Pilots. The preferred alternative — the fourth proposal put forth by the Navy and named the Midwestern Site — calls for these structures: ■ A trestle 355 feet long and 24 feet wide. ■ A fixed pier at the end of the trestle, 160 feet long and 42 feet wide, where 250-foot blocking vessels would tie up. ■ Two floats 80 feet long and 17 feet wide on the west side of the pier, one float 120 feet long and 12 feet wide on the east side of the pier, where an 87-foot reaction vessel and several 64- and 33-foot screening vessels would be moored, respectively. Up to nine vessels could lay over at the Transit Protection System facility. ■ An 8,200-square foot Alert Forces Facility to provide offices and quarters for 20-30 personnel. ■ A 200-square-foot Ready Service Armory to store small arms and ammunition. ■ An above-ground, doublewalled, 10,000-gallon fuel tank. ■ A 2,864-square-foot fuel truck parking area. ■ A net increase of 5,500 square feet under impervious paving.

Home Fund clears up glasses emergency Vision back in focus for 9-year-old BY KAREN GRIFFITHS PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
SEQUIM — Soon after hearing his gleeful shouts of joy followed by a splash of water, Melissa Bascue noticed her eldest son wasn’t wearing his glasses. It seemed just moments ago Melissa Bascue and her husband George Bascue had arrived at Lake Sutherland to enjoy a special day with their three children: Madison, 11, Asher, 9, and George Jr., 5. It was Asher who spied the slide on a lake-side dock and made a beeline straight for it. The eager boy wasted no time in climbing the ladder and taking
a ride on the slide that plunged him down into the lake’s bluegreen water. When he popped back up to the surface, his glasses had vanished. In his haste he’d forgotten to take them off. Search as they may it seemed as if the lake had swallowed up Asher’s glasses forever. Without them, his eyesight was limited. He couldn’t see to read or to even catch a ball. “He slid into the water and lost them. That was it,” Bascue said. As the family searched for the glasses with no results, alarm bells went off in her head. She’d just that week purchased
new school clothes and supplies for the children and knew it would be a few more weeks before her husband, who works at a Sequimarea restaurant, and she, who at the time worked part-time, would have the money to purchase new ones. With three active children who wear prescription glasses, Bascue said she tries to always have some money set aside for the occasional broken or lost eye glasses, but this time, “I’d just spend all my extra funds so I was like, ‘oh no!’ ” She feared since Asher couldn’t read without his glasses he’d quickly fall behind in his schoolKAREN GRIFFITHS/FOR PENINSULA DAILY NEWS work and then spend the rest of Asher Bascue, far right hanging from tree, lost his glasses the year trying to catch up.

Drake most streamed by Spotify users SPOTIFY USERS ARE clearly listening to Drake. The rapper was the most streamed artist of the year globally. Spotify announced Drake its end-ofthe-year list Tuesday and said Drake earned 1.8 billion streams in 2015. Rihanna was the year’s most streamed female performer with 1 billion streams, while Major Lazer’s ubiquitous hit, “Lean On,” was the most streamed song of the year with 540 million streams. The Weeknd’s breakout
album, “Beauty Behind the Madness,” was the most streamed album of the year, beating Drake’s “If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late,” which was No. 2. Ed Sheeran, who was the top streaming artist last year, was second behind Drake. The Weeknd, Maroon 5 and Kanye West rounded out the top five. In the United States, Drake topped the list of most streamed artists, followed by the Weeknd, West, Sheeran and Eminem. Drake’s “If You’re Reading This” also topped the U.S. albums list, while Fetty Wap’s “Trap Queen” was the most streamed song in America.

Passings By The Associated Press
GEN. SIR ROBERT FORD, 91, the most senior army front-line commander in Northern Ireland when British paratroopers fatally shot 13 unarmed Roman Catholic civil rights protesters in 1972 on what became known as Bloody Sunday, died Nov. 24. His death was confirmed by A.J. Wakely & Sons funeral directors in Dorset, England, which Mr. Ford did not say in 1972 where he died or provide a cause. General Ford was exonerated after two inquiries and continued to defend the deployment of his battlehardened Parachute Regiment, but acknowledged that while the army had claimed a short-lived victory in restoring order locally, it lost a worldwide public relations war. The killings Jan. 30, 1972, in Londonderry, occurred after the regiment was deployed there to contain an illegal march. The demonstrators were protesting the imposition of preventive detention, or internment without trial, as a means to quash the mostly Roman Catholic Irish Republican Army in its fight against the British-backed government of Northern Ireland, a Protestant-dominated province. The paratroopers insisted that they were returning fire, but none of the victims were found to be armed, and an exhaustive inquiry concluded that the soldiers had lied. The killings prompted more protests (the British Embassy in Dublin was set on fire on Feb. 2), drove a new
wave of recruits to Irish Republican Army ranks and resulted in the most casualties, including British soldiers, of any year of the divisiveness known as the Troubles. The killings inspired Paul and Linda McCartney’s song “Give Ireland Back to the Irish” (which was banned on BBC Radio), John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s “Sunday Bloody Sunday,” the U2 anthem by the same name (“There’s many lost,” the lyrics bemoan, “but tell me who has won?”) and Paul Greengrass’s prizewinning 2002 film “Bloody Sunday.” Tim Pigott-Smith played General Ford.
________ ELDAR RYAZANOV, 88, whose rueful satires puncturing the absurdities of everyday life in the Soviet Union and the Russia of the post-Gorbachev era made him one of Russia’s most popular film directors and screenwriters, died Monday in Moscow. His death was announced by the Russian filmmakers’ union Kinosoyuz. While still in his 20s, Mr. Ryazanov became an instant sensation with his first feature film, the musical comedy “Carnival Night.” Released in the Soviet Union in 1956, it was a harbinger of the post-Stalin thaw and the emergence of a new postwar generation. It depicted the struggle of Communist Youth League members trying to organize a fun-filled New Year’s Eve party at a local cultural center, opposed by an overbearing bureaucrat determined to make it an educational event. For the next 30 years, Mr. Ryazanov perfected a genre he called “sad comedy,” exposing the foibles of party officials and ordinary citi-
zens alike, wielding the scalpel deftly enough to remain in the government’s good graces. He Mr. was a masRyazanov ter of every comedic shade, the newspaper Novaya Gazeta wrote in an appreciation, “from lyric to satiric, from slapstick to tragicomic fantasy.” Only one of his films, “A Man From Nowhere,” was banned outright. Made in 1961, it followed the adventures of a Stone Age man who visits the Soviet Union and comments, a little too acerbically, on the manners and customs he observes.

A3 Briefly: Nation Chicago mayor fires chief after video’s release CHICAGO — Rahm Emanuel sought for months to keep the public from seeing a video that shows a white police officer shooting a black teenager 16 times. Now, a week after the video’s release, the Chicago mayor has fired the police superintendent, created a task force for police accountability and expanded the use of body cameras. Emanuel announced the dismissal of Superintendent Garry McCarthy on Tuesday. The mayor praised McCarthy’s leadership but called it an “undeniable fact” that the public’s trust in the police had eroded. “Now is the time for fresh eyes and new leadership,” Emanuel said. Protesters have been calling for McCarthy’s dismissal in response to the handling of the death of Laquan McDonald, a 17-year-old who was killed in October 2014.
“It’s not clear what the cause of those injuries are,” she said. She could not comment on the nature of the injuries, she said. Emanuel Fisk lived alone. There was no sign of forced entry into Fisk’s home above Juneau’s downtown. “We haven’t ruled anything out yet,” she said.

U.S. to send added special ops to Iraq Forces will be part of fight against ISIS BY DEB RIECHMANN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The U.S. military will deploy a new special operations force to Iraq to step up the fight against Islamic State militants who are unleashing violence and are determined to hold territory they have seized in Iraq and Syria, Defense Secretary Ash Carter told Congress on Tuesday. The introduction of the assault force puts U.S. combat troops on the ground in a more permanent role in Iraq and Syria for the first time in the year-plus fight against the militants. It comes as Republicans have called for more U.S. boots on the ground, while Americans stand divided about the prospect of
greater military involvement. Carter, who testified alongside Gen. Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, faced skeptical lawmakers who argued that the U.S. needs to be more forceful in countering the threat from the Islamic State group, credited with attacks in Paris and Beirut and the downing of a Russian airliner.
Raids, intelligence Carter told the House Armed Services Committee that over time, the special operations force will be able to conduct raids, free hostages, gather intelligence and capture militant leaders. Carter said that will improve intelligence and generate more targets for attacks. There currently are about 3,300 U.S. troops in Iraq, and President Barack Obama had previously announced he was sending fewer than 50 special operations forces to Syria. Carter said the number in the new expeditionary force will be
“larger” than 50. He said it will be a “standing” force, meaning it will be stationed in Iraq. He said it would focus on helping Iraq defend its borders and build its security forces, but also would be in position to conduct unilateral operations into Syria. “This is an important capability because it takes advantage of what we’re good at,” Carter said. “We’re good at intelligence, we’re good at mobility, we’re good at surprise. We have the long reach that no one else has. And it puts everybody on notice in Syria. You don’t know at night who’s going to be coming in the window. And that’s the sensation that we want all of ISIL’s leadership and followers to have.” According to a U.S. official, the force could total up to a couple hundred troops, including the assault teams, aviation units and other support units. It would likely be based in Irbil. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the individual was not authorized to publicly discuss the plans.

Obama says parts of climate deal must be legally binding BY KARL RITTER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
PARIS — President Barack Obama said Tuesday that parts of the global warming deal being negotiated in Paris should be legally binding on the participating countries, setting up a potential fight with Republicans at home. Obama’s stand won praise at the U.N. climate conference from those who want a strong agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of coal, oil and gas.
Quick Read
But it could rile conservatives in Washington, especially if he tries to put the deal into effect without seeking congressional approval. The Obama administration has pledged during the international talks to reduce U.S. emissions by up to 28 percent by 2025. But inscribing the emissions target in the Paris deal would probably require Obama to submit the pact to Congress, where it would be unlikely to win ratification. Many Republicans doubt global warming is real or fear that
stringent pollution controls could kill jobs. So the administration is looking to keep the targets out while including binding procedures on when and how countries should review their targets and raise them if possible. “Although the targets themselves may not have the force of treaties, the process, the procedures that ensure transparency and periodic reviews, that needs to be legally binding,” Obama said in Paris, “and that’s going to be critical.”

THE SUPREME COURT has granted Texas some of the extra time the state sought to respond to the Obama administration’s immigration appeal. The court could rule by late June on the administration’s plan to shield millions of immigrants from deportation. The schedule the court outlined Tuesday gives Texas only eight of the 30 additional days it wanted. That would allow arguments to be held in April and a decision to be issued two months later. If the justices rule for the administration, President Barack Obama would have roughly seven months in office to implement his plan.

They cheered inside the Movement of the People for Progress party’s headquarters, where celebrations continued Tuesday, as streets remained calm with a thick layer of dust because of West Africa’s harmattan winds.
FOREIGN MINISTERS FROM NATO countries were expected to invite Montenegro to join the military alliance despite Russia’s objection to the move, diplomats said, the latest sign of discord between the West and Moscow even as they both battle the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq. Montenegro’s accession was one of several topics being discussed at a two-day meeting of top diplomats from the alliance that began Tuesday. Other issues include the funding for NATO’s longstanding mission in Afghanistan, improving Turkish defenses and injecting “predictability” in relations with Russia.

Fund: OlyCAP helped family purchase glasses CONTINUED FROM A1 Bascue discussed the problem with her boss, who suggested she try approaching the Olympic Community Action Programs office in Port Angeles for help. OlyCAP, the Peninsula’s No. 1 emergency care agency in our two counties, oversees the Home Fund for the PDN, screening the applicants and carefully distributing the funds to those who need that “hand up.” While she was hesitate to approach OlyCAP to ask for help, she said her fears were quickly set aside when, “everyone was so kind and helpful there.” After meeting with a case worker, she was “told to go to Walmart to see how much the new glasses would cost,” Bascue said. So off she went to the Sequim Walmart Supercenter’s vision clinic. She was then able to return to OlyCAP with a written statement of cost. “I handed it in and was told they’d let me know,” she said. Warned the approval process could take a few days, she was pleasantly surprised when she received a phone call that same day saying her request was approved. Consequently, she returned to OlyCAP to pick up a voucher for $87 made out to Walmart and was able to purchase the replacement glasses that same day. “It only took Walmart a couple of days to get the glasses in and as a result Asher had his new glasses in time for school,” Bascue said, delighted. “I was so relieved.” While the family wasn’t in dire straits, the problem of not being able to purchase new glasses for her son was huge to Bascue. “This help has meant so much to me and my family. We’re very appreciative,” she said. “We try to be independent and not ask for help, but now that we have, it’s so comforting to know there is some place we can go to get help and there are people who are willing to help.” Every year, the Peninsula Daily News’ “hand up, not a handout” Peninsula Home Fund provides new prescription eyeglasses to residents of Jefferson and Clallam counties. The Peninsula Home Fund — a safety net for local residents when there is nowhere else to turn — is seeking contributions for its annual holiday season fundraising campaign. From Port Townsend to Forks, from Quilcene and Brinnon to Sequim and LaPush, the Home Fund helps children, teens, families and the elderly to get through an emergency situation. Money from the Home Fund is used for hot meals for seniors in Jefferson and Clallam counties; warm

winter coats for kids; keeping the heat on, home repairs, clothing, furniture, food, rent and other essentials for a low-income family; needed prescription drugs; dental work; safe, drug-free temporary housing; eyeglasses — the list goes on and on. The Home Fund is not a welfare program. The average amount of help is usually below $100 — this year has been $70 per person — with a limit of one grant from the fund within 12 months. The maximum amount the Home Fund provides a needy household is $350 per year. No money is deducted by the Peninsula Daily News for administration, fees or any other overhead.

The PDN does not rent, sell, give or otherwise share your address or other information with anyone or make any other use of it. Individuals, couples, families, businesses, churches, service organizations and school groups set a record for Home Fund contributions in 2014: $271,981. With heavy demand again this year, the carefully rationed fund is being depleted rapidly. Since Jan. 1, the Home Fund has helped nearly 2,700 individuals and households, many with children. As of Nov. 15, approximately $205,000 has been spent for Home Fund grants. And as we move into winter, the toughest period of the year, most all of the remaining money — $75,000 — is expected to be spent before Dec. 31.

Computer programming demonstrated at events BY CHARLIE BERMANT

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT TOWNSEND — Four public demonstrations on the value of a future in computer programming will take place in East Jefferson County next week as part of the international Hour of Code campaign. “People have heard war stories about computer programming and are afraid to try it themselves,” said Jay Bakst of Port Ludlow, who is coordinating the events. “There is a big gap in Washington state between the number of jobs available and the people who can do them, so there are lots of opportunities.”
Hour of Code events The first event will take place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Dec. 8 at the Jefferson County Library, 620 Cedar Ave., Port Hadlock. The other three events all occur Dec. 12: from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Cotton Building, 607 Water St., Port Townsend; from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Quilcene Community Center, 294952 U.S. Highway 101; and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Port Townsend Farmers Market at the corner of Lawrence and Tyler Streets. Each event will provide participants with instructions about programming, using exercises based on the “Star Wars” and “Frozen” movies. “There is a new Star Wars movie coming out which is going to be really popular,” Bakst said. “These exercises will get people interested and let them know what they can accomplish.” During the exercises each participant will have the opportunity to interact with a programmer who will answer questions and discuss opportunities. “Everyone knows how to use a phone app,” Bakst said. “We will demonstrate how easy it is to build them.”
District activities In addition to the public events, the three East Jefferson County school districts — Port Townsend, Chimacum and Quilcene — are coordinating activities

Jay Bakst, left, discusses the upcoming Hour of Code events with Port Townsend Library Director Melody Sky Eisler, Chris Hoffman Hill, a librarian at the Jefferson County Library, and Port Townsend children’s librarian Kit WardCrixell. designed to attract and introduce more than 200 students from Port Townsend to Quilcene to computer programming, said Bakst, who is now a consultant after a long career in IT. “Currently, there are 20,000 computer programming jobs unfilled in Washington state and dozens in Jefferson County alone,” Bakst said. “And it is getting worse. By 2020, there is expected to be a national shortage of 1.4 million computer programmers.” There are often no educational requirements for a job in computer programming because many people are self taught, and those who need specific instruction have several options, Bakst said. These range from attending continuing education classes to getting a four-year college degree in computer science, he said. Web design is one of the biggest opportunities for new programmers while jobs in manufacturing and for large organizations almost always are available, he said. “There are programming jobs in Jefferson County, but if someone wants to move to Seattle or any other large city, there are always lots of opportunities,” he said. The Hour of Code, started in 2013 by nonprofit Code.org, is an international effort providing tools and tutorials to introduce
people young and old to computer science, with more than 70,000 events impacting tens of millions of students, according to its website. Hour of Code provides a secure environment for introducing people to the nuts and bolts of information technology, Bakst said. This is the first year the program has been used in Jefferson County, which has modeled its offerings after those previously available in Kitsap County, Bakst said. There is no template for those best equipped for a programming job, Bakst said, adding that a logical mind, the ability to follow procedures and a certain level of detail orientation are valuable traits. Bakst said he will make a proactive effort to contact event attendees who show an interest in programming, providing information and options for making it a career path. “We will follow up with everyone who’s interested. People won’t need to wait to get more information,” Bakst said. “Next week, the purpose is to get people to try this out, learning that it is something they can do that is fun and interesting.” For more information, contact Bakst at 253-7092850 or info@raviyah.com.

PORT ANGELES — Clallam County Treasurer Selinda Barkhuis has objected to the county’s draft budget on procedural and substantive grounds. Barkhuis issued a formal public comment on the proposed $36.8 million budget in a Tuesday email to County Administrator Jim Jones and other officials. Commissioners held two public hearings on the draft 2016 budget Tuesday. A final budget will be approved by Dec. 8. “I object to the proposed 2016 budget on both procedural (lack of transparency, lack of notice) and substantive grounds, and I reserve the right to specify the procedural and substantive defects until such time as I have had a reasonable opportunity (access and time wise) to review the 2016 budget

Jones replied in a Monday email that he reduced the investment interest projection from $500,000 to $300,000 at Barkhuis’ request and would have done so earlier had Barkhuis participated in and expressed her preference in scheduled budget meetings. On the topic of transparency, Jones said there were more budget meetings this year than ever before. “We had 28, publicly noticed budget meetings, open to the public and 20 more individual department head meetings together with at least a dozen more BOCC (board of county commissioners) meetings that had budget issues listed as agenda items,” Jones wrote. “In addition, there were many more times that budget direction was given from the BOCC during ‘good of the order’ comments.”

processes and documents,” Barkhuis wrote. Barkhuis complained in a Nov. 23 email to county officials that revenue projections in the draft budget were too high. She raised specific concerns about Jones raising the investment interest projection from $300,000 to $500,000 and “last minute” spending increases in the prosecuting attorney’s office budget to pay for more staff. Barkhuis also asked commissioners to terminate Jones’ employment contract. On Friday, Barkhuis sent an email to Jones and Budget Director Debi Cook noting that revenue forecast for her office had changed yet again. “I hereby also want to note my objection to the total lack of transparency associated with this year’s budget process,” she wrote.

Opponents have said a shooting range at Sadie Creek, which supports salmon populations, would cause lead contamination because of the presence of wetlands, acidic soils, shallow groundwater and other factors. The Sadie Creek gun range has been opposed by the Lower Elwha Klallam, Jamestown S’Klallam and Makah tribes, as well as the North Olympic Land Trust, North Olympic Peninsula Lead Entity for Salmon and other groups. The 320-acre site is owned by the state Department of Natural Resources and would need to be transferred to Clallam County before becoming a shooting range. “This is a very controversial proposed project that will become mired in litigation and is so out-of-step with our values, and so harmful to our salmon restoration efforts that the reality is that it will never be built,” Lynette wrote in his letter. ________ “Why waste $300,000 of our taxpayer dollars on a Reporter Rob Ollikainen can doomed project, when our be reached at 360-452-2345, ext. county has so many worthy 5072, or at rollikainen@peninsula dailynews.com. needs that go unfunded?”

Lynette also provided the board with a 2010 letter from the North Olympic Peninsula Lead Entity for Salmon to DNR that opposed a shooting range at Sadie Creek. “We spend enormous sums on salmon enhancement projects,” Lynette told commissioners, “and you’re proposing to spend $300,000 on paperwork for a project that would destroy prime salmon habitat.” “Please remove this proposal from your budget.” Last month, Commissioners McEntire and Bill Peach directed Jones — with Commissioner Mike Chapman absent — to add the $300,000 to the budget “recognizing that this is a two-stage process,” Jones said. “Putting it in the budget just makes it available without a budget emergency next year if next year’s board decide they want to move forward,” Jones said. “There would have to be an affirmative action on the part of next year’s board to call for bids for the EIS (environmental impact statement).” Other speakers, including former Clallam County Commissioner Mike Doherty, echoed Lynette’s remarks about the Sadie Creek shooting range as part of their own comments to the board. Doherty said he has long favored a site in the east county because of the drier climate and because it would serve as a centrallylocated gun range for local, state, federal and tribal law enforcement agencies in Clallam and Jefferson counties.

PORT ANGELES — Clallam County commissioners have shot down a $300,000 budget provision that would have paid for the study of a controversial shooting range at Sadie Creek west of Joyce. Instead, the three commissioners agreed Tuesday to fund a $50,000 analysis of alternative sites for a gun range. “I’ve long been a proponent of any shooting range,” Commissioner Jim McEntire said in the first of two public hearings on the draft 2016 budget Tuesday. “It’s just been stuck for many, many years. “The spending authority that will be available to next year’s board is simply a means to get the conversation unstuck and concluded,” McEntire added. “Of course, that conversation is going to be inclusive of ‘Where should we put the thing?’” After receiving letters and comments from environmental groups and concerned citizens, commissioners Tuesday tweaked the draft budget by removing $300,000 for an environmental impact statement for the Sadie Creek site.
The draft budget was balanced by the use of $3 million in general fund reserves, leaving a “still very heathy” ending fund balance of $9.2 million, County Administrator Jim Jones reported in the first hearing. Bob Lynette of the North Olympic Group of the Sierra Club presented a letter requesting the removal of the budgeted $300,000 for the shooting range at Sadie Creek. He and others have said they would support a shooting range at a less environmentally-sensitive location.

It is high time to rejoice all across the land, these 25 singers proclaim. The NorthWest Women’s Chorale will do just that Friday, Saturday and Monday as they present “Gaudete!” — Latin for rejoice! — in a trio of concerts around Clallam County. Joy Lingerfelt, director of the chorale, chose a variety of challenging works for her singers. The opener, the centuries-old sacred song titled “Gaudete!,” is followed by the Canticles de Navidad from Chile; a set of carols from Latvia and a
jazzy rendition of the French “Il Est Ne, Le Divin Enfant” (“He is born, the Holy Child”). Then there’s the Mass No. 6 from Hungarian composer Gyorgy Orban, a piece Lingerfelt calls “gorgeous.” This and more music will arrive at venues east, west and in between.
Three concerts Concerts will be: ■ At the Dungeness Valley Lutheran Church, 925 N. Sequim Ave., at 7 p.m. Friday; ■ Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 250 N. Blackberry Ave. in Forks, at 2 p.m. Saturday;
■ Holy Trinity Lutheran, 301 E. Lopez Ave., Port Angeles, at 7 p.m. Monday. Admission is a suggested $15 donation, with proceeds to support the NorthWest Women’s Chorale, a nonprofit organization born nine years ago. The three concerts promise some gospel music, too. “Go Where I Send Thee” and the spiritual “How Far Is It to Bethlehem?” are on the itinerary, as is “a crowdpleasing sing-along,” Lingerfelt added. The chorale’s collaborative pianist, Kristin Quigley Brye, will play for the singers, who come from Port Angeles, Joyce and Sequim. At a rehearsal Monday night, the women poured themselves into their task, filling the sanctuary at Holy Trinity Lutheran in Port Angeles with song. Lingerfelt cracked jokes — and urged them to give even more. “What better way,” she asked, “to chase away the winter darkness?”

PORT LUDLOW — Two people were taken to hospitals in Bremerton and Port Angeles after two cars and a semi-trailer truck were involved in a collision Tuesday on state Highway 104 just east of Garten Road. One patient was taken to Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton, another to Olympic Medical Center in Port Angeles, with non-lifethreatening injuries, said Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue Chief Brad Martin. None were identified. Martin said a westbound vehicle tried to pass the truck at high speed and clipped the back of the trailer. An eastbound vehicle swerved to avoid the passing car and struck a guard rail. The incident was under investigation Tuesday afternoon by the State Patrol. Jefferson County Sheriff ’s deputies also responded to the collision.

Washington state auditor Troy Kelley arrives for a federal court hearing, Tuesday in Tacoma. KEITH THORPE/PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
Prosecutors give details for state auditor’s case BY GENE JOHNSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TACOMA — Prosecutors laid out their case against the indicted Washington state auditor in the greatest detail yet Tuesday, as an FBI agent described how financial records and statements from his former workers belied his explanations of why he was entitled to keep millions of dollars from old real estate transactions. The testimony came during a hearing in which Auditor Troy Kelley is seeking to have the government return $908,000 it seized in September. Prosecutors say the money had been stolen from clients of Kelley’s former real-estate services business and that he has no right to it. However, Kelley’s attorney Angelo Calfo told U.S. District Judge Ronald Leighton that the way Kelley moved the money among various accounts was “money transferring,” not money laundering. “The money wasn’t stolen from anybody,” Calfo said. Kelley, a 51-year-old Democrat from Tacoma, is a for-
mer state representative who was elected in 2012 to be Washington’s auditor — the state official tasked with rooting out waste and fraud in government operations. Previously, he ran a company called Post Closing Department, which worked with escrow and mortgage title companies to track real estate transactions. Investigators say Kelley kept fees the company was supposed to refund to customers — an amount that totaled at least $3 million from 2006 to 2008 — and paid himself $245,000 a year from the ill-gotten proceeds.
Indicted last spring Just before he was indicted last spring on charges including possession of stolen money and filing false income tax returns, Kelley wrote a $447,000 check to the U.S. Treasury Department, noting in the subject line that it would cover future tax debts, and transferred more than $908,000 to a law firm that represented him at the time. Federal prosecutors
seized the money being held by the firm in September. Calfo sought its return, arguing that the government did not need the money as evidence and had not demonstrated that it had probable cause to seize it. In an opening statement Tuesday, Assistant U.S. Attorney Richard Cohen argued that the money was stolen and directly traceable to money laundering. FBI Special Agent Michael Brown then took the stand, explaining in detail Post Closing Department’s business model and relationship with the two title and escrow companies with which it worked. Referencing emails from Kelley and his employees, Brown described how Post Closing had repeatedly insisted to the other companies, Fidelity National Title and Old Republic Title, that it only kept $15 to $20 of each $100 to $150 fee collected from borrowers to track the transactions. In reality, of more than 27,000 transactions, it provided refunds in just 89 instances, Brown testified.

Boeing avoided nearly $20M in state sales taxes last year THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Revenue after a publicrecords request and appeal, represents a small slice of the aerospace giant’s expected annual savings from the record-setting taxincentive package. In addition to the salestax exemption, the total tax-break package — approved during a special legislative session in 2013 to land production of the 777X in Everett — included savings from a reduction in the state tax on business revenues.
provision, championed by state Rep. Reuven Carlyle, D-Seattle, requires tax savings claimed by individual businesses to be made public within two years for any new or expanded tax break passed by lawmakers. “It’s the beginning of a new era in opening the books,” Carlyle said. Previously, taxpayer confidentiality laws have, with few exceptions, shielded disclosure of tax-break benefits enjoyed by companies. Instead, such information has been largely limited to estimates of how the Tax transparency tax breaks apply to broad The tax-transparency industry sectors.
SEATTLE — A taxexemption package approved by Washington state lawmakers two years ago allowed Boeing to avoid nearly $20 million in sales taxes last year. And thanks to a taxtransparency provision that passed the same year, the precise value of one piece of the company’s tax-break package has been made public, according to The Seattle Times. The sales-tax savings of $19,586,512 in 2014, released to the newspaper by the state Department of

Coats offered for any who need them in PA BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS
PORT ANGELES — Sculptures and posts in downtown Port Angeles were briefly well-dressed for the cold in November, and seven people are now a bit warmer. More coats are expected to appear Dec. 13. Eight warm winter coats appeared in random locations on Nov. 26, each garment bearing a tag saying it was not lost but was looking for a new owner. “All but one were gone by the next day,” said Rose Marschall, one of the organizers of the Love Thy Neighbor Coat Peace Project. Marschall and M.E. Bartholomew, members of the Revitalize Port Angeles Facebook group, saw a post on Facebook about how, in another city, volunteers placed coats on posts with

notes offering them to those who were cold and coatless. Neither saw a reason as to why it could not be done in Port Angeles, especially with the humanshaped sculptures that dot the downtown landscape that would make natural stands for the coats.
Lone coat More coats
One coat remained where it had been left on Tuesday, and Marschall said she thought it was simply in a bad location, in a less used area on Front Street. Marschall and Bartholomew moved the coat to Oak Street, and said they hoped someone who needs it will find it more easily there. The name for the project came from the intent of the project. “Being warm brings a feeling of peace,” Marschall said. The coats and jackets were
Marschall said she and Bartholomew plan to dress the sculptures and posts on Dec. 13, once they have resupplied their coat collection. “If it’s raining, we will wait until a sunny day,” she said, noting that rain would make the coats cold and soggy. Additions of scarves, gloves and new, warm socks have also been suggested to be added to the free, warm items on the Revitalize page discussion of the project.

dents returned to campus Monday, the same day Campbell was arrested. His alledged comments on social media, as well as comments by others, led the administration to shut down the campus a week earlier. The university asked Yik Yak, an anonymous social media platform popular among college students, to turn over the names of the commenters, who posted pictures of the student body president, a gun and references to lynching and nooses. Officials said the student arrested Monday has been linked to a threat posted on the social media platform and that university police are continuing to investigate. The long stream of posts
mentioned almost every ethnic group, including blacks, Muslims, Jews and American Indians, blaming them for an effort on campus to debate changing the university’s mascot, a Viking. The threats came days after several student leaders suggested that the mascot is racist. Most of the online comments contained racist language and profanity, making fun of the mascot debate and the students who proposed it. One post called black students crying babies and another complimented the school for having an “overtly Aryan” mascot. Campbell’s mother, Lisa Concidine, told The Seattle Times that her son told her his post on Yik Yak was “sarcastic because he was

Feds extend comment Gay marriage still not period for mining plan legal on all tribal land BY KEITH RIDLER THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
BOISE, Idaho — The U.S. Bureau of Land Management has extended the public comment period on the agency’s plan to withdraw 10 million acres of public lands in six western states from potential mineral extraction to protect habitat for the greater sage grouse. The comment period will last about three additional weeks to Jan. 15, with public meetings scheduled in Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming in December. The BLM is seeking comments ahead of creating an Environmental Impact Statement before making a final decision on whether to withdraw the public lands for 20 years. Some aspects federal authorities want to analyze include the economic effects of withdrawing the lands, wilderness characteristics, American Indian resources, mineral resources and recreation.
Opportunity “We really want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to comment on the proposed withdrawal,” said BLM spokesman Mark Mackiewicz. The proposed withdrawal of the lands — subject to an 1872 mining law meant to encourage devel-

opment of Western land — is part of new U.S. policies announced in September. At the same time, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said sage grouse didn’t need federal protections under the Endangered Species Act. Under the 1872 mining law, federal officials don’t have the discretion to deny mining claims. Withdrawing the 10 million acres from being subject to that law would allow BLM officials to block mining claims. The 10 million acres are already under a two-year freeze from new mining claims while the BLM prepares its Environmental Impact Statement. The freeze doesn’t affect mining claims already in place. Jack Lyman of the Idaho Mining Association said banning mining on 3 million acres in Idaho would limit future mineral extraction.

“This is a big issue for the mining community,” he said. “This is where we’re going to find the minerals in the next 5, 10, 20, 50 years.” John Robison of the Idaho Conservation League
said withdrawing the lands is a good step. “The priority of just about everything else over sage-grouse is why this amazing bird was being considered for protections under the Endangered Species Act,” he said in a statement. John Freemuth, a Boise State University professor and public lands expert, said the two-year review will give the BLM an opportunity to see what kinds of minerals are in the 10 million acres that are considered key sage grouse habitat. How much, if any, would end up being set aside is unclear. The decision in two years would be made by the administration that follows President Barack Obama’s. Freemuth said excluding some sage grouse habitat from the 1872 mining law could play a role in a federal judge’s decision involving federal lawsuits that have already been filed challenging restrictions in sage grouse areas.
BY FELICIA FONSECA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — Cleo Pablo married her longtime partner when gay weddings became legal in Arizona and looked forward to the day when her wife and their children could move into her home in the small Native American community outside Phoenix where she grew up. That day never came. The Ak-Chin Indian Community doesn’t recognize same-sex marriages and has a law that prohibits unmarried couples from living together. So Pablo voluntarily gave up her tribal home and now is suing the tribe in tribal court to have her marriage validated. “I want equal opportunity,” Pablo said. “I want what every married couple has.” Pablo’s situation reflects an overlooked story line following the U.S. Supreme Court’s historic decision this year that legalized gay marriages nationwide: American Indian reservations are not bound by the decision and many continue to forbid gay marriages and deny insurance and other benefits. The reasons vary and to some extent depend on cultural recognition of gender identification and roles, and the influence of outside religions, legal experts say.
Federal court The withdrawal could also play a role in federal court, he said, if environmental groups opt to file lawsuits challenging the decision not to list sage grouse, a bird about the size of a chicken. Males are known puffing their chest feathers and dancing while vying for female mates. “In that sense (the withdrawal) was proactive to create enough evidence for a federal judge should there be a lawsuit from the environmental side,” Freemuth said. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in five years will also revisit whether sage grouse need federal protections.
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Cleo Pablo and her wife, Tara Roy-Pablo, stand outside their home in Phoenix last month. Advocacy groups largely have stayed away from pushing tribes for change, recognizing that tribes have the inherent right to regulate domestic relations within their boundaries. “Tribal sovereignty is very important to tribes,” Tweedy said. “They don’t want to just adopt what the U.S. does.” Pablo follows in the footsteps of a handful of other tribal members in Oregon, Washington state and Michigan who lobbied their governments for marriage equality. North Olympic Peninsula tribal leaders contacted by Peninsula Daily News — including those of the Lower Elwha Klallam, Jamestown S’Klallam and Quileute tribes — say they have not developed policies on gay marriage.
Few bans The Navajo Nation is one of a few of the country’s 567 federally recognized tribes that have outright bans on gay marriage. Some tribes expressly allow it, while others tie marriage laws to those of states or have gender-neutral laws that typically create confusion for gay couples on whether they can marry. The mish-mash occurs
Pressing issues Other issues like high unemployment, alcoholism and suicides on reservations also could be higher on the priority list, said Ann Tweedy, an associate professor at the Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul, Minn., who has studied tribes’ marriage laws.

because tribes are sovereign lands where the U.S. Constitution does not apply. But Pablo argues in her lawsuit that members of the Tribal Council are violating the Ak-Chin constitution by denying her equal protection and due process — rights also guaranteed under the federal Indian Civil Rights Act. Her lawyer, Sonia Martinez, said tribal members could have a persuasive argument against gay-marriage bans if their tribe incorporated federal constitutional rights into tribal laws, which she said is the case on the Ak-Chin reservation. The Ak-Chin Indian Community wouldn’t comment directly on Pablo’s lawsuit but said marriage laws are a matter for the tribe to decide, not the U.S. Supreme Court. “Whether our current law stays the same or needs to change, it must still be addressed in a manner that best promotes and protects the community’s sovereignty and right of self-governance, and best reflects the culture, tradition, and morals of the community and all of its members within the confines of our laws,” read a statement provided to The Associated Press.

Haupt said that, despite the differences between their lifestyles, they are united in many ways, including effects of climate change. The games brought them together in the spirit of that brotherhood, and for a friendly competition in the activities that help their people to survive in their natural climates, she said. October’s games selected traditional athletic activities shared by many cultures — archery, spear throwing, canoe racing, spear tossing, wrestling, swimming and foot races, plus demonstrations of sports unique to one or a few cultures.

Haupt said when the 24 Brazilian tribes entered the arenas, they competed as tribes, rather than as a single Brazilian entry. She said that while the competition between athletes was fierce, the tone was one of people with similar goals and challenges coming together. “There was love on the field,” she said. Canada, which also has held national indigenous games since 1971, will host the second World Indigenous Games in Toronto, Ontario, in 2017. Russia and New Zealand contingents have spoken up with a desire to host a future games, Haupt said. Haupt said a meeting of the participants at the Brazil games determined the games will be held every two years. “We want to keep the momentum going,” she said.

Death and Memorial Notice EDGAR L. EDWARDS July 15, 1912 November 16, 2015 Edgar L. Edwards, age 103 of Port Angeles, passed away peacefully at Olympic Medical Center in Port Angeles. Edgar was born in Kirbyville, Missouri, to David and Dora Edwards. He was the sixth child out of eight children. As a young man in the 1930s, he joined the Civilian Conversation Corps where he was sent to Idaho to help build roads and bridges. After this he went back to his roots in Missouri and farming. He met his wife, Ruby Hampton in Forsythe, Missouri. They married in 1938 and had four children. In 1945, the family moved to Port Angeles, where Edgar took a job with the Rayonier Pulp Mill. After working there for 31 years, he retired in 1977. Edgar’s last position with Rayonier was as a
Mr. Edwards watchman, where at the age of 58, he learned to ride a bicycle to help him on his rounds throughout the mill. During Edgar’s 103 years he touched the lives of countless people and made friends wherever he went. Having been raised on a farm, he never lost his love of gardening and after his retirement he became a master gardener. Another great interest of his was chess. He
and his son were members of the Port Angeles Chess Club for many years. He also enjoyed computer games, working jigsaw puzzles and playing balloon volleyball with residents of Park View Villas, where he lived for the past four years. He is survived by his daughters, Gloria (Jim) Fogelberg, Lola (Don) Anderson and Oleta Roderick; and daughter in-law, Billie Edwards. He also leaves behind eight grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren. Edgar was preceded in death by his wife of 71 years, Ruby, his son Gordon, son in-law Michael Roderick, his parents, five brothers and two sisters. He will be greatly missed and forever loved. A memorial service will take place at Grace Baptist Church, 4221 Mount Angeles Road on December 5, 2015, at 1 p.m. A private interment was held November 25, 2015, at Mount Angeles Memorial Park.

Eating crow as fish agency critic T
THE END OF SALMON season on our rivers came as a shock to a lot of us. I guess I Pat had no idea Neal what time it was getting to be. We saw the leaves turn color and blow away, leaving the trees like skeletons in the sky. We watched great flocks of migrating birds fly past on their way south, but it all seems to have happened too fast. It seems as only yesterday the maple trees were flowering and we were fishing the spring chinook. Then, as the days grew hotter, the summer coho appeared. The rains of autumn brought the fall run of kings and silvers back up the rivers to spawn. The salmon seemed different
this year. Maybe it is the result of El Nino or the legendary blob of warm water lurking out in the ocean, but the coho were definitely smaller. Some of these salmon had the big heads and the slim tapered bodies of high mountain trout that grew up without enough food. They had a stunted look. For years the coho seemed to be getting bigger and more abundant while the king salmon got smaller and more difficult to catch. This year, the coho were small but the kings were larger and more numerous than they have been in years. There could be many reasons for this, but the more I fish the less I know. Go ahead and cuss at me for not knowing everything, but when I’m wrong, at least I will admit it. Over the years I have badmouthed about every government do-gooder organization pos-

sible at one time or another. From the bought-and-paid-for fisheries biologists to the greedbloated pressure groups that make a mockery of the farce known as fisheries “co-management,” I have done my level best to shine a light on what I call the extinction-for-profit industry. So when the state Department of Fish and Wildlife cut the salmon limit back to one fish daily on a lot of our West End rivers, I figured it was just another cheap shot to cheat us out of our fair share of the fishing. That was wrong. As it turned out there were not near as many coho returning this fall as there has been in the

past years, so it was probably a good idea to lower the daily limit. Meanwhile, the Sol Duc fish hatchery raised a run of coho that was so awesome the Department of Fish and Wildlife put a three-fish daily limit on the river. Those were some nice fish that got up to about 12 pounds, which is not huge for a fall coho but is way better than some other rivers. The success of the Sol Duc fish hatchery should serve as a model for the restoration of the ecosystem throughout the North Olympic Peninsula using spawned out salmon to feed everything from the bugs to the fish to the trees.
OUR READERS’
Just recently, in an unprecedented move, the kind, generous and wise managers at the state Department of Fish and Wildlife extended the salmon season for coho on the Sol Duc until Dec. 15. This decision was based on an actual abundance of fish. While we have always had emergency closures on fishing before, this is the first time I can remember an emergency opening on anything. There you have it. This ends a writing career that once stretched from Shine Slough to Dead Dog Flats. Now that I can’t badmouth the government, I have very little to write about. My work here is done.

Brod, Sequim EDITOR’S NOTE: Goodman and Thomas are the PDN’s regular Thursday columnists. Collins and Malkin are the PDN’s regular Friday columnists.
A look at young lives interrupted THE SECOND PARAGRAPH of Ernest Hemingway’s short story, A Way You’ll Never Be, describes a cluster of dead Austrian soldiers encountered during World War I: “They Roger lay alone or in clumps in the Cohen high grass of the field and along the road, their pockets out, and over them were flies and around each body or group of bodies were the scattered papers.” That’s the whole paragraph, 37 words of telegraphic description. Yet the detail — the flies, the papers and especially “their pockets out” — captures the scene. Somebody has already looted those pockets. Hemingway was also a war reporter with an unerring eye. Later in the story, Hemingway writes of the “guns hidden under screens of mulberry leaves to the left of the road,” visible “by the heat-waves in the air above the leaves where the sun hit the metal.” With almost adjective-free economy, he has placed you there,
in the carnage of a century ago, where the hot weather, indifferent to corpse of friend or foe, has “swollen them all alike regardless of nationality.” Around the dead are “stick bombs, helmets, rifles, intrenching tools, ammunition boxes, starshell pistols, their shells scattered about, medical kits, gas masks, empty gas-mask cans, a squat, tripodded machine gun in a nest of empty shells, full belts protruding from the boxes, the water-cooling can empty and on its side, the breech block gone, the crew in odd positions, and around them, in the grass, more of the typical papers.” Show, don’t tell, goes the old writer’s maxim. The papers — in this case prayer books, smutty postcards and “letters, letters, letters” — stopped me. “There was always much paper about the dead,” Hemingway wrote, “and the debris of this attack was no exception.” My late uncle, Capt. Bert Cohen of the Dental Unit of the Sixth South African Armored Division, 19th Field Ambulance, had said the same of the dead he encountered as he fought his way up the Italian peninsula in World War II. I guess there won’t be any letters in the next war, just cell-

phones in the dust, the sand or the mud, their batteries dying. Bert told me more than once of a column of Nazi dead he found on a bend in the Penaro River, north of Modena, on April 24, 1945. From his words and war diary, I wrote this description: “Intestines of gutted animals ballooned from their carcasses. “A squad of South African infantry marched through the ruins, bringing a bullet of mercy to animals that still agonized. “One dead German in particular caught Bert’s eye: a blond, square-jawed young man with a long straight nose, hair flecked with blood and smoke, legs twisted grotesquely, abdomen ripped open, coils of gut spilling through a ragged gash into the
dust, sightless blue eyes gazing at infinity. “Beside the corpse lay scattered letters from the soldier’s mother in Hamburg. She wrote about Der Angriff, the Allied bombardment of the city that killed more than 42,000 people. “Uncertain what to do, Bert returned the letters to the dead man’s pocket.” Until his death last year at the age of 95, my uncle remained haunted by that single dead German and his letters. He dwelt on them as if he, a Jew from South Africa, might somehow have brought this handsome young man, Hitler’s model Aryan, back to life, and he wondered if he should have kept the letters to return them to a bereaved mother in Hamburg. He was a link in a circle that never closed. I’ve been thinking of young lives interrupted, of the papers fluttering from the twin towers toward my Brooklyn Heights apartment 14 years ago, of the young Parisian who did not go to the Bataclan on Nov. 13 because his wife was pregnant and a dead friend who did, of the ways luck can run out. As a war correspondent, I always thought you did not need good luck. You needed the absence of

bad luck. Perhaps if Bert had returned the letters he would have made a friend in Hamburg and seen something of the rebirth of that handsome city. It seems, as we grow older, that we are haunted less by what we have done than by what we failed to do, whether through lack of courage, or inattention, or insufficient readiness to cast caution to the winds. The impossible love abandoned, the gesture unmade, the heedless voyage untaken, the parting that should not have been — these chimera always beckon. What’s done is done but the undone is another matter. David Bromwich, in The New York Review of Books, drew my attention to the Hemingway short story and wrote of the author’s “method of description that becomes a record of repressed emotion.” There are too many words today, too much emotion, and too few letters. Truth is more often the fruit of diligence than revelation, of discipline than inebriation, of discarding than accumulation.

Diana came to Crestwood post surgically for removal of a left frontal lobe brain tumor. She was experiencing progressive weakness and confusion, along with word finding difficulties when she was hospitalized. She arrived with weakness specifically on the side of her body; she was unable to write or tie her shoes as she once had. Within days, Diane was able to maneuver in her wheel chair around the facility, always smiling and willing to work with her occupational, speech and physical therapists. She eventually graduated to using a rolling walker, improvising her balance and endurance in standing to complete valued tasks such as jamming with her husband, Ron, as he would frequently bring in their music book and play Bluegrass tunes. They have spent many years together attending Bluegrass festivals and it was evident that as Diane progressed in her therapy, she was able to easier engage in playing her baritone ukulele or guitar as Ron strummed his mandolin by her side, both singing to their hearts content, bringing smiles and tapping toes to those who stopped to listen. Within a few weeks, Diane progressed to walking without an assistive device and was found many times in occupational therapy doing the “electric slide,” confidently completing the grapevine with ease. By the end of her time at Crestwood, she easily was able to care for herself, completing her basic routine with independence, accessing medical appointments with her husband and socializing within the facility with ease. We wish her the best of luck and will miss her!!

PORT ANGELES — A Coast Guard helicopter crew cut a training mission short after they were targeted by a personal laser near Port Angeles. The Coast Guard is investigating. An MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew was airborne when a laser was shined at the helicopter at about 6:30 p.m. Monday, the Coast Guard said in a press release issued Tuesday. The crew aborted the mission and return immediately to Air Station/Sector Field Office Port Angeles, where they landed safely.
No injuries were reported, but all crew members were grounded until they were cleared by medical personnel as laser strikes can cause permanent eye damage, the Coast Guard said. During nighttime missions, laser beams also can cause temporary loss of night vision, glaring and flash blindness, putting the crew members’ lives in jeopardy, the Coast Guard said. “The public should report this type of incident to local law enforcement,” said Lt. Cmdr. Greg Lynch, a helicopter pilot at the Port Angeles Air Station Port Angeles.

The other stood at the Tim same time on Dahlberg the sidelines on a snowy night in Denver, watching a much younger replacement help his team find a way to hand the New England Patriots their first loss of the year. Kobe Bryant was going somewhat willingly, finally accepting that after 20 years of long nights on the hardwood neither his body nor his team were going to miraculously recover anytime in the near future. He could afford to laugh at himself because his future is clear after years of injuries and aborted comebacks. Peyton Manning put his best game face on, but had to know his time is coming, if not here already. The Denver Broncos seem smitten with their new quarterback, and even if Manning recovers from his foot injury there’s no guarantee he will get back on the field. Both are in an awkward dance with Father Time that neither will win. Bryant, though

BryBryant ant is still getting paid an NBA-high $25 million to showcase his declining skills, and his immediate future includes a Manning trip around the league where he will surely be serenaded by adoring crowds. It’s a farewell tour he will enjoy, even if there has been little to enjoy while watching Bryant and the hapless Lakers this year. “There’s nothing I would love more than to be able to play this entire season, to go through all of these tough times, to be able to suit up and play on the road in these buildings for the last time,” Bryant said.

The team doesn’t know if that means the 29-year-old Graham, for whom Seattle traded two-time Pro Bowl center Max Unger and a first-round draft choice to New Orleans in March, would be back on the field for the start of training camp in late July. “I don’t know about the dates of that,” Carroll said, “but there’s plenty of time for him to get back.” The Orthopaedic Trauma Center at the University of California-San Francisco and San Francisco General Hospital states surgery for a patellar tendon rupture
usually occurs within four weeks. “After the surgery, it typically takes between six and eight weeks for the tendon to heal,” the clinic states. “During that time, the knee is kept straight in a brace for a majority of the time to allow the repair to heal without stretching out. “Once the surgeon has determined that the repair is healed, physical therapy begins in order to regain motion of the knee and strength in the quadriceps.” TURN

Tiger Woods has no timetable on healing or playing BY DOUG FERGUSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NASSAU, Bahamas — Tiger Woods painted a bleak picture Tuesday on when he can return to golf or even get back to doing anything more than just walking. Woods had two back surgeries in a span of 18 months followed by what he described only as another “procedure” in the same area in October. He has not started rehabilitation and does not know when his back will allow for that. “The hardest part for me is there’s really nothing I can look forward to, nothing I can build toward,” Woods said. “It’s just tak-
PGA ing it literally just day by day and week by week and time by time.” Woods is at the Hero World Challenge as the tournament host, not one of the 18 players at Albany Golf Club. The only time he touched a club was to pose for a photo, and he leaned on it while talking to Justin Rose and Zach Johnson on the putting green. A month away from turning 40, the smile did not come as easily for Woods. He has not competed since Aug. 23 at the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, N.C., where
he attracted record crowds in his first appearance and played his best golf of a bad year. He went into the final round two shots behind and tied for 10th. He didn’t realize that would be his last event of the year, and last tournament for longer than he knows. “Was it a surprise? Yeah,” Woods said. “Because as I was alluding to that week and subsequent weeks, I felt my hip was killing me and I didn’t think it was coming from my back. “We worked out in the trailer each and every day and just tried to loosen up my hip. And OK, fine, we went out and played. But I didn’t feel any back discomfort.
“Come to find out it wasn’t my hip, it was coming from my back.” He had another microdiscectomy Sept. 16 and then he revealed he had another “procedure” Oct. 30, which he said was in the same spot. Asked the degree to which he can function, Woods said, “I walk. I walk and I walk some more.” Woods, who has spent 683 weeks at No. 1 in the world ranking, is now at No. 400, his lowest as a professional. He has not won since the Bridgestone Invitational in 2013, when he was the PGA Tour player of the year. And now he can’t even begin to imagine when he might play again.
“I have no answer for that, and neither does my surgeon or my physios,” he said. “There is no timetable.” Woods said this was different from his four knee surgeries, even the worst one in 2008 after he won the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines for his 14th major. He had a reconstruction of his left knee and was told it would be about nine months before he could get back. Woods returned eight months later and won in his third start. “For nerves, there are really no timetables and therein lies the tricky part of it because you can come back earlier or you can come back later,” he said.
third in 50-yard butterfly. She also placed fourth in both the 200-yard individual medley and 50-yard backstroke, fifth in 50 free and eighth in the 200 IM. ■ Nadia Cole, 13, placed first overall in 500 free and qualified for champs. She also finished second in 100-yard breaststroke, and her sixth-place finish in the 100 back qualified her for championships in that event. She was seventh overall in the 50 free and the 400 IM. ■ Emma Murray, 13, placed second in the 200-yard fly to qualify for champs. She also was seventh overall in 200 back. ■ Kenzie Johnson, 14, placed second in 200 back, fourth in the 500 free, fifth in the 100 back, sixth in 200 IM and eighth in 100 free.

He placed sixth in the 100 breast, 50 free and 50 back, and he took eighth in the 100 free and the 200 breast. Weller’s 200 breast time qualified him for the champs meet.

Jordan Spieth hits a flop shot with a 60-degree wedge out of the gallery on the 18th hole during the third round of the Masters in April. ■ 6-IRON: In a wild match that featured chip-ins for halves on consecutive holes, Lee Westwood and Spieth were all square on the par-3 17th at Harding Park in a match that determined who won their group. Westwood hit a 6-iron that covered the flag and settled 12 feet away for birdie that carried him to the win. ■ 7-IRON: Dustin Johnson was trying to make up ground on J.B. Holmes in the third round at Doral when he hit 7-iron onto the green and into the hole at the par-3 fourth. Twenty minutes later, Holmes also hit 7-iron that found the middle of the green and rolled in for another ace. ■ 8-IRON: Phil Mickelson had 154 yards from a fairway
bunker on No. 12 at the Valero Texas Open when he selected 8-iron. The ball came out soft and went only 100 yards, and for good reason. The head snapped off the club at impact, hit the lip and tumbled out of the bunker. Mickelson’s reaction said it all. “What the heck?” ■ 9-IRON: George McNeill used a 9-iron to ace the 18th hole at The Greenbrier in the first round, meaning owner Jim Justice lived up to his pledge of $100 cash to everyone watching (189 fans). Then, Justin Thomas used 9-iron for a hole-in-one, and Justice paid $500 to the 347 fans who were there. The next ace would be worth $1,000, and before long, some
1,700 fans were at No. 18. But there were no more aces. ■ PITCHING WEDGE: Shane Lowry hooked his tee shot so far left on the 10th hole at Firestone that he was given relief because the 11th tee was in the way. He opened the face of a pitching wedge, swung as hard as he could and hit it over a 50-foot tree to a foot for birdie on his way to winning the Bridgestone Invitational. ■ GAP WEDGE: Making a birdie on the island-green 17th at the TPC Sawgrass is good. Three times in one round? That’s what Rickie Fowler did Sunday at The Players Championship, each time using a gap wedge even though the wind was slightly different. The last birdie was the winner. ■ LOB WEDGE: Spieth went from a seven-shot lead to a four-shot lead in a span of 10 minutes Saturday at the Masters. Then he hit his approach to the 18th into the gallery, right of the green, behind a bunker with the green running away from him. He hit a flop shot with his 60-degree wedge, a high-risk shot that brought a big reward when it settled 10 feet away. He saved par, the key shot in his victory. ■ PUTTER: Zach Johnson’s only chance in the British Open was to birdie the final hole at St. Andrews. He rolled in a 30-foot putt that got him into a three-man playoff that he won for his second major.

Manning, he’ll leave a conflicted legacy. Yes, he’s the most prolific passer of all time, but with just one Super Bowl title in 18 years he doesn’t even own the most rings in his family. Manning is a certain Hall of Famer, but when talk begins about the alltime greats it starts with quarterbacks like Joe Montana and Brady. They have four Super Bowl wins apiece, while Manning is 1-2 in the big game, including a blowout loss to Seattle two years ago where he wasn’t even a factor. It’s similar in a way for Bryant, even though his five NBA titles elevate him to at least being in the conversation among the top 10 NBA players ever.

Still, Bryant leaves a legacy of sorts for his incessant work and the way he played with a chip on his shoulder up until the end. He also served as a role model of his own for countless other aspiring NBA players, including LeBron James. “I wanted to be just like him, man,” James said Tuesday. Both Bryant and Manning had great careers, yet both wanted more. They desperately chased it even as the years began to run out and their bodies began letting them down.

Facebook CEO, wife to give wealth in honor of daughter BY BRANDON BAILEY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO — Talk about birth announcements: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and his wife said they’ll devote nearly all their wealth — roughly $45 billion — to good works in celebration of their new baby daughter, Max. Zuckerberg’s wife, Priscilla Chan, gave birth to a 7-pound, 8-ounce daughter last week. But the couple didn’t put out the news until Tuesday, when Zuckerberg posted it on — of course — Facebook. In the same post, Zuckerberg said he and Chan will commit 99 percent of their Facebook stock to such causes as
fighting disease, improving education and “building strong communities.” They are forming a new organization, called the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, that will pursue those goals through a combination of charitable donations, private investment and promotion of government-policy reform.
Better world “Like all parents, we want you to grow up in a world better than ours today,” the social media mogul and his wife wrote in a letter to their daughter, which they also posted on Facebook. In the letter, they described their
goals as “advancing human potential and promoting equality” and added: “We must make long term investments over 25, 50 or even 100 years. The greatest challenges require very long time horizons and cannot be solved by short term thinking.”
Details to come Zuckerberg promised to release more details in the future. But he said the couple will transfer most of their wealth to the initiative “during our lives.” In a statement, Facebook described the initiative as not a foundation but “a limited liability company controlled by Mark and Priscilla.”

$ Briefly . . . U.S. vehicle sales reach 14-year high DETROIT — November used to be a slow month for U.S. car sales. Not anymore. Black Friday promotions — some of which began well before Thanksgiving — pushed last month’s sales to a 14-year high of 1.3 million, just short of a record for the month. Sales were up 1.4 percent from last November, according to Autodata Corp. General Motors’ sales rose 1.5 percent, while Toyota and Fiat Chrysler each saw 3 percent sales gains. Hyundai’s sales jumped 12 percent, while Nissan’s were up 4 percent. Ford’s sales were flat. Honda’s sales fell 5 percent, hurt by lower CR-V sales. But the biggest sales decline was at Volkswagen. VW’s U.S. sales plummeted almost 25 percent, hurt by the company’s admission that its diesel vehicles cheated on emissions tests. November was a notoriously slow sales month until about five years ago, when car dealers joined other retailers in promoting Black Friday, according to Edmunds analyst Jessica Caldwell.
Construction spen WASHINGTON — U.S. construction spending jumped in October, fueled by solid gains in home building and the largest increase in federal construction in nine years. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that construction spending rose 1 percent in October

from the previous month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of more than $1.1 trillion. That’s the highest level since December 2007 when the Great Recession began. More Americans are buying new homes or renting apartments, driving greater residential development. And federal, state and local governments, spurred partly by greater tax revenue, are building more roads and schools.
Gold and silver Gold for February fell $1.80, or 0.2 percent, to settle at $1,063.50 an ounce Tuesday. March silver lost less than half a cent to settle at $14.083 an ounce. Peninsula Daily News and The Associated Press

The U.S. Department of the Navy (Navy) gives notice that they have prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate the potential environmental effects associated with the construction and operation of a pier and support facilities for the Transit Protection System (TPS) at U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) Air Station/Sector Field Office in Port Angeles, Clallam County, Washington. The Navy invites the public to review and comment on the Draft EA. The Draft EA is available at: http://go.usa.gov/tAr4. A printed copy of the Draft EA is also available for public review at the Port Angeles Main Library, 2210 South Peabody Street, Port Angeles, WA 98362.
The purpose of the Proposed Action is to provide a staging location for TPS vessels and crews that escort Navy submarines to and from their dive/surface points in the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Naval Base (NAVBASE) Kitsap Bangor. The Proposed Action is needed to comply with USCG requirements for underway hour limitations and required crew rest between escort missions. Underway hours are defined as the time required for USCG crews to prepare for, perform, and complete small boat operations. The hour limits vary by boat size and type, and are shorter during high sea states and foul weather conditions. The Proposed Action consists of the construction, maintenance, and operation of a pier with utility services; a shore-based single-story facility to meet sleeping and administrative functions known as an Alert Forces Facility; a shore-based ammunition and small arms storage facility (Ready Service Armory); an above-ground diesel fuel storage tank and distribution system; and sewer, water, power, stormwater, communications, parking, lighting, physical security structures, signage, and landscaping improvements.
The Navy will hold a public meeting in Port Angeles on January 12, 2016 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at the Naval Elks Lodge #353, 131 E 1st Street, Port Angeles, WA to provide information about the Proposed Action. The meeting will not include a formal presentation; however, Navy and USCG personnel will be present at this open house meeting to answer questions and receive written comments.
