PA plant set for expansion Up to 50 new jobs seen in ’11 By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — Angeles Composites Technologies Inc. will expand its business in Port Angeles after rejecting offers from other areas to move away. The expansion of ACTI, which is next to William R. Fairchild International Airport, will add 50,000 square feet overall and between 40 and 50 new jobs next year — with perhaps more in the future, said Mike Rauch, president and CEO of ACTI. The organization, which employs 110 people, makes com-
posite parts for many companies in the aerospace industry including Boeing Co., Lockheed Martin Corp. and Bombardier Inc. Rauch said the expansion could eventually mean “hundreds” more jobs. Other cities and states have tried to lure the company away from the Port of Port Angeles Airport Industrial Park, Rauch said. Although Rauch wouldn’t elaborate on the locations or offers, he said the board voted last week to remain in Port Angeles. “It was a tough decision,” he said. “But I have a vested interest in this community, my shareholders have a vested interest in this comKeith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News munity, and our employees have a Angeles Composites Technologies Inc.

PORT ANGELES — New signs with light-green slats topped by a depiction of a tribal canoe pulling past the Olympic Mountains will grace Port Angeles next year. The Port Angeles City Council unanimously approved Tuesday the design of the directional signs, intended to make it easier for travelers to find local attractions and shops. Six prototype signs will be installed “early next year,” said Nathan West, city community and economic development director. Up to 50 in all will be installed by the end of the year. Included in that figure are about a dozen kiosks to be placed downtown showing how long it takes to walk to shops and other destinations nearby. Some will also identify parking. The signs, designed by AECOM of Orlando, Fla., are part of the city’s Waterfront and Transportation Improvement Plan. The city has budgeted $156,440, mostly City of Port Angeles from the lodging tax fund, for the direcA drawn welcome monument sign tional signs and two new entryway monudesign is superimposed over a ment signs.

City Council OKs monument sign for roadside at bottom of Morse Creek By Tom Callis
Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — A memorable welcome to the city or a traffic hazard? That is what the Port Angeles City Council debated earlier this week during a discussion regarding the placement of a “Welcome to Port Angeles” monument sign at the bottom of the Morse Creek S-curve, about 2.5 miles east of the city limit. The council, with some members noting the pleasant, pastoral scene and the opportunity for drivers to pull over and to take photos of the structure, approved the location in a 5-1 vote Tuesday. But not before Deputy Mayor Don Perry, who made the lone dissenting vote, weighed in on the potential dangers of placing a
monument sign that could be 30 feet tall on the tight bend of U.S. Highway 101. “I think we’re asking for trouble on that,” he said, noting that he has had close calls driving on the S-curve. “You don’t have a fraction of a second to admire something that’s supposedly going to be fairly decent to look at,” Perry added. The monument would sit on the north side of the highway at Strait View Drive. Heeding Perry’s concerns, the council directed staff to explore how dangerous it would be to place a monument there. Staff will likely report on their findings to the council next month, said Nathan West, city community and economic development director, on Wednesday. Turn

GARRY GROSS, 73, a fashion photographer known for his 1970s nude images of Brooke Shields taken when she was 10 years old, died in Manhattan, N.Y. His sister, Linda Gross, said he died Nov. 30 from a heart attack at his home in the Greenwich Village Mr. Gross neighborin 2009 hood. It was the 1970s images of Shields that marked his career most significantly. In 1975, the actress’ mother, Teri Shields, consented to allow her daughter, then a child model, to be photographed nude for a Playboy Press publication. She and her mother earned $450 for the shoot, which included a full-frontal nude image of the girl standing in a bathtub. At 17, Shields sued Mr. Gross in New York to stop him from selling the images,
arguing they were an invasion of her privacy and caused her embarrassment. But after a lower court granted her an injunction, the state’s Court of Appeals decided 4-3 that the teenager could not break the contract signed by her mother that allowed Mr. Gross to take the pictures. The court said Mr. Gross could continue to market the photos except to pornographic publications. Jane Feldman, who managed the studio on Broadway and East 20th Street where the photographs of Shields were taken, said they were part of a series intended to explore young women coming of age. “Garry saw it as art,” she said. “It’s an exploration, but it was done with great respect,” she added. “Yes, it’s intriguing; it’s provocative.” But she said the protracted court battle cost him his career, saddling him with legal fees and marring his reputation among art directors.
“He went through periods of times where he was really angry about it,” she said.
__________ ART QUIMBY, 77, a former University of Connecticut basketball star who averaged more than 21 rebounds a game for the Huskies in the 1950s, has died. He led the nation in rebounding in 1954, averaging almost 23 per game, and still holds the UConn career record with 1,716. Connecticut coach Jim Calhoun remembers Mr. Quimby as one of the best rebounders in the history of college basketball and as an ambassador for the state and the program. Mr. Quimby was named to the UConn all-century team in 2001. After playing at Connecticut, Mr. Quimby turned down an offer to play for the Rochester Royals in the NBA and instead pursued a career in education.

Briefly: Nation Jihad-obsessed man arrested in bomb plot BALTIMORE — A 21-yearold part-time construction worker obsessed with jihad was arrested Wednesday when he tried to detonate what he thought was a bomb at a military recruitment center — the second time in less than two weeks that an alleged homegrown terrorist was nabbed in a sting operation. Antonio Martinez, a naturalized U.S. citizen who goes by the name Muhammad Hussain, faces charges of attempted murder of federal officers and attempted use of a weapon of mass destruction, according to court documents filed Wednesday. The bomb he’s accused of trying to detonate was fake and had been provided by an undercover FBI agent. It was loaded into an SUV that Martinez parked in front of the recruiting center, authorities said, and an FBI informant picked him up and drove him to a nearby vantage point where he tried to set it off. “There was never any actual danger to the public during this operation this morning,” U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein said Wednesday. “That’s because the FBI was controlling the situation.”

Speaking to reporters at a joint appearance with Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski, Obama Obama said economists predict higher job growth in 2011 and 2012 if Congress passes the agreement and urged lawmakers to examine the details of the deal and “get this done.” The White House has been leaning hard on fellow Democrats to support the tax deal that would extend the cuts at all income levels for two years, extend jobless benefits for the long-term unemployed and cut the Social Security payroll tax for a year.

Hackers defend WikiLeaks by attacking credit cards
By Raphael G. Satter and Jill Lawless The Associated Press
LONDON — Hackers rushed to the defense of WikiLeaks on Wednesday, launching attacks on MasterCard, Visa, Swedish prosecutors, a Swiss bank, Sarah Palin and others who have acted against the site and its jailed founder Julian Assange. Internet “ h a ck t i v i s t s ” operating under the label “Operation Payback” claimed responsibility in a Twitter message for causing severe technological problems Assange at the website for MasterCard, which pulled the plug on its relationship with WikiLeaks a day ago. MasterCard acknowledged “a service disruption” involving its Secure Code system for verifying online payments, but spokesman James Issokson said consumers could still use their credit cards for secure transactions. Later Wednesday, Visa’s website was inaccessible. The online attacks are part of a wave of support for WikiLeaks that is sweeping the Internet.
Twitter was choked with messages of solidarity for the group, while the site’s Facebook page hit 1 million fans. Late Wednesday, Operation Payback itself appeared to run into problems, as many of its sites went down. It was unclear who was behind the counterattack. MasterCard is the latest in a string of U.S.-based Internet companies — including Visa, Amazon. com, PayPal Inc. and EveryDNS — to cut ties to WikiLeaks in recent days amid intense U.S. government pressure.
Palin site under attack PayPal was not having problems Wednesday but the company said it faced “a dedicated denialof-service attack” Monday. Meanwhile, a website tied to former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin came under cyberattack, she said. In a posting on the social networking site Facebook last week, Palin called Assange “an antiAmerican operative with blood on his hands.” An aide said staff moved quickly to secure the website and no data was compromised. WikiLeaks’ extensive releases of secret U.S. diplomatic cables have embarrassed U.S. allies,
angered rivals, and reopened old wounds across the world. U.S. officials in Washington said other countries have curtailed their dealings with the U.S. government because of WikiLeaks’ actions. PayPal Vice President Osama Bedier said the company froze WikiLeaks’ account after seeing a letter from the U.S. State Department to WikiLeaks saying that the group’s activities “were deemed illegal in the United States.” Offline, WikiLeaks was under pressure on many fronts. Assange is in a British prison fighting extradition to Sweden over a sex crimes case. Recent moves by Swiss Postfinance, MasterCard, PayPal and others that cut the flow of donations to the group have impaired its ability to raise money. Neither WikiLeaks nor Assange has been charged with any offense in the U.S., but the U.S. government is investigating whether Assange can be prosecuted for espionage or other offenses. Assange has not been charged with any offenses in Sweden either, but authorities there want to question him about the allegations of sex crimes. Undeterred, WikiLeaks released more confidential U.S. cables Wednesday.

Screenwriter calls Palin ‘witless bully’ The Associated Press
ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Hollywood screenwriter Aaron Sorkin is calling former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin a “witless bully” after her cable television travelogue series featured her shooting a caribou. In Sunday’s episode of “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate hunted north of the Arctic Circle. In a Facebook posting, she wrote that unless people have never eaten meat, they shouldn’t condemn the episode. Sorkin, who wrote the script for “The Social Network,” said in an article for The Huffington Post that Palin didn’t kill the caribou for food, just for fun. He said he couldn’t distinguish between that and Philadelphia Eagles’ quarterback Michael Vick’s role in a dogfighting ring, for which he spent 18 months in prison.

He heard arguments for nearly two hours Wednesday. A decision for Miller could result in thousands of challenged ballots for Sen. Lisa Murkowski being reviewed and lead to a recount, a prospect attorneys for Murkowski argue could leave Alaska with just one senator when the new Congress is sworn in.
A California woman is proving it’s never too late to make things right. Ninety-five-year-old Hazel Severson of Sacramento said a friend found a book that Severson’s late husband had borrowed from an Amador County library in 1936 while sorting through things for a garage sale. She knew what she had to do: return the book and offer to pay the overdue fee — a whopping $2,701. Severson told the Sacramento Bee that she and her husband Howard were newlyweds back when he checked out the hardback, Seaplane Solo. Luckily for Severson, the library didn’t charge her the fee, though it did accept a small donation from her.
Five years after wandering away in Hurricane Katrina’s aftermath, a gray-and-white cat named Scrub has been reunited with his Mississippi family The Humane Society of South Mississippi said Scrub was identified by an implanted microchip. The 7-year-old cat was brought to the shelter by a Gulfport woman who’d fed him as a stray the past couple of months but worried about his safety during a cold snap. Scrub’s owner, Jennifer Noble, said that she was skeptical at first when she received a call from the shelter. But by the end of the first night back, Scrub had snuggled in bed with one of her boys.
The Salvation Army red kettles are coming up golden in Indiana. The charity said anonymous donors have left gold coins in kettles in Mishawaka and Kokomo this Christmas season. The South Bend Tribune reported that someone dropped a 1-ounce U.S. gold coin worth $1,400 in a kettle outside a Sam’s Club in Mishawaka. The coin was wrapped in a $100 bill and a small note thanking the organization for “doing God’s work.” The Kokomo Tribune reported that another donor dropped a South African Krugerrand worth more than $1,400 in a kettle at Markland Mall in Kokomo.

Waterfront rescue EVERETT — A fire marshal said two vehicles accidentally ended up in the chilly waters off Everett’s waterfront Wednesday evening after a family apparently got lost trying to find a restaurant — but everyone is safe. Everett Fire Marshal Rick Robinson said port security and a Mountlake Terrace couple’s son broke a window in the couple’s car and pulled them to safety after they drove off the 10th Street boat launch. While their son was trying to help them, his car slid into the water as well. KING-TV said security guard Ed Graves helped the son rescue his parents. Robinson told the Daily Herald that the son cut his hand breaking the window. He said the family was taken to a hospital to be checked out, but no one appeared to have serious injuries. The family was not identified. The Associated Press

Silver Gala to benefit fine arts center By Diane Urbani de la Paz
Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — Elegant evening wear is “admired but not requiredâ€? at the Silver Gala on Wednesday night, said Jake Seniuk, director of the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center. The gala is both a celebration of this year and the beginning of the fine arts center’s 25th anniversary year, he said, adding that Friday is the deadline to make reservations at the event.
C’est Si Bon The Silver Gala will take place at C’est Si Bon, the French restaurant on Cedar Park Drive just off U.S. Highway 101 east of Port Angeles. Tickets are $95, and proceeds benefit the center, the free public art museum composed of an indoor gallery surrounded

by the Webster’s Woods Art Park at 1203 E. Lauridsen Blvd. The evening at C’est Si Bon will start at 6 p.m. with a social hour and entertainment by Charlie Ferris, who roams through decades of music, from the 1940s forward, depending on his audience. Ferris’ repertoire includes 200 songs, from Frank Sinatra and Bobby Darin to B.B. King and Michael Buble — but he won’t know the mix until he sees who’s listening. “I read an audience and try my best to interpret what they are going to want . . . I work like a rolling DJ,� Ferris said.
Unique destination Seniuk, in his 22nd year at the Port Angeles Fine Arts Center, believes the place owes its survival to the fact that it’s a one-of-akind destination. “The world is more and more homogenous; for people coming through, it’s the same stuff everywhere. “People are hungry,� he said, “for something completely different.� The center receives about 14 percent of its $175,000 annual budget from the city of Port Angeles, plus some $35,000 yearly from its foundation and trust fund,

lovers of the arts to enjoy one another’s company. “New people come all the time� to join longtime supporters, he said. The Silver Gala “could even be a date for somebody.� To make reservations, phone organizer Vicki Gron-

Peninsula College fair focuses on composites By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — A Peninsula College informational fair next week will tell workers about job opportunities in composites. The fair will be at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Lincoln Center, 905 W. Ninth St., Port Angeles, in room 208. The expansion announced Wednesday by Angeles Composites Technology Inc. — along with jobs at Westport Shipyard, Platypus Marine Inc. and other local companies utilizing composites — have created a need for trained workers in the field, said Bob Lawrence-Markarian, who oversees the work training programs at Peninsula College. “In these tough economic times, I think it is wonderful to have an industry that is growing, and we really need to develop a work force for those jobs,” he said. The college has worked with local composite companies to build the first year of the composites program. “The college has been working for years with ACTI to make sure we provide a well-trained workforce,” said Peninsula College President Tom Keegan.
Two-year program
The yearlong program currently has 10 high school students and two college students enrolled. High schoolers can enroll through the North Olympic Peninsula Skills Center, and college students can enroll through Peninsula College, Lawrence-Markarian said. In addition to the pro-
gram, Lawrence-Markarian is setting up a short-term training program to get workers quickly into the industry, he said. “It will be really short — about 80 hours of training,” he said. “That will be for truly entry-level composites workers. “They’ll know some ter-
minology, have some good training and get some interviewing skills and math skills.” Mike Rauch, president and CEO of ACTI, worked with the college to create the shorter program in order to bolster the number of qualified applicants in the job pool, Keegan said. “With Mike’s advice and
urging, we are going to have the short-term certificates — those will begin in the late winter quarter and will help ramp up the workforce,” Keegan said.

“In January, we will expand on the one-year certificate program into a twoyear program with a focus on aviation composites,” he added. The first year will remain similar to the present program, Lawrence-Markarian said. “The first year currently being taught is yacht- and boat-building and sports equipment — cold techniques,” he said. “Those things don’t need to use an autoclave. “The aerospace industry is a different version. It uses techniques that are more climate-controlled.” The second year of the program will build on the first, Lawrence-Markarian said. Although students can take the first year independently, Lawrence-Markarian encouraged students to get their associate degrees. “It really will be a great plus for their resume,” he said. “They also could then later go into a four-year degree program at Western [Washington University] or somewhere else that offers a composites bachelor degree.” Representatives of companies who would employ the graduates of the program also will be at the fair and are regular participants
in the program, LawrenceMarkarian said. “They have been on the advisory committee for awhile,” he said. “About a year ago, we had a composites summit with all of our industry partners. “That helped us know that we needed to go in this direction.”

Hood Canal, Elwha bridges honored By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — The state-retrofitted Hood Canal Bridge and Clallam County’s double-deck Elwha River bridge made a leading trade publication’s short list of top bridges in the nation for 2010. Roads & Bridges magazine rated Hood Canal Bridge No. 1 and the Elwha River bridge replacement No. 7 for 2010. Clallam County Engineer Ross Tyler said he was surprised when he opened his November edition of Roads & Bridges and saw the list. “It is kind of neat to score two of the top 10 in Washington out of all the bridges that were constructed within the U.S.,” Tyler said. Clallam County has never before had a road or a bridge in the publication’s top 10 list. “We didn’t even know it had been submitted,” Tyler said. “It was a very nice surprise.” Tyler said the Illinoisbased magazine is wellrespected in the industry, adding that the editorial content is not swayed by advertising. “That leaves me to believe that the criteria has to be fairly significant,” Tyler said. Roads & Bridges Editorial Director Bill Wilson could not be reached for com-
ment Wednesday afternoon. “Some of the others [in the rankings] are major, major structures, even bigger than ours by a considerable margin,” Tyler said. “They definitely give consideration to aesthetics, how it works in the environment, unique features in it, stuff like that.”
Hood Canal Bridge The eastern half of the Hood Canal Bridge was replaced in 2009. The nearly $500 million project closed the bridge for five weeks. The state Department of Transportation reopened the link between Jefferson and Kitsap counties a week ahead of schedule. Transportation contracted the work to KiewitGeneral Construction Co. A story in the publication devoted to the Hood Canal Bridge replacement said that Phil Wallace, project director for the Kiewit-General joint venture, dedicated the award to Eric Soderquist, a state Department of Transportation employee who suffered a fatal accident at his home during construction.

tractor for the project. BergerABAM designed it. “Access to Pier 2 proved to be one of the most challenging aspects of the project,” Roads & Bridges said. “Situated on a rocky knoll about 50 vertical feet down a steep embankment, it was bordered to the north and east by vertical drop-offs and to the south by an existing crib wall of unknown stability. “To deal with the situation, Parsons had to designbuild a ramp and work pad.” One of the unique features of the $20 million bridge is the pedestrian path — part of the Olympic Discovery Trial — suspended below the 85-foot-high autoKeith Thorpe (2)/Peninsula Daily News mobile deck.

DNR chooses slash study’s research team Peninsula Daily News
OLYMPIA — The state Department of Natural Resources has selected a research team to study forest biomass supply in a project that is the first of its kind in the nation. The University of Washington School of Forest Resources will work with TSS Consultants to document the economically and ecologically available forest biomass in the state’s working forests. The study, using part of a $1 million grant DNR received from the U.S. Forest Service this summer, will be conducted over the next 10 months. To determine what is available, factors including environmental protection, road access, existing infra-
structure and travel distance to a facility will be evaluated. “It is important to me that we continue to move forward with the forest biomass initiative thoughtfully,” said Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark. “Understanding what is actually available in our forests will help ensure that bioenergy facilities in Washington are appropriately scaled to our resource base.” Biomass cogeneration facilities burn forest slash, or wood waste, known as hog fuel. Among the biomass projects proposed in the state are two on the North Olympic Peninsula. Nippon Paper Industries USA Inc. plans a $71 million biomass boiler expansion,
while Port Townsend Paper Corp. mill has received the go-ahead from the state Department of Ecology for a $55 million biomass project. Both would create steam to run the plant while also generating electricity for sale. Both are expected to be online next year. The Nippon facility would create up to 20 megawatts of electricity for sale, while the Port Townsend mill would generate up to 24 megawatts of electricity for sale.
Objections Permits for both have been appealed. Seven environmental groups lost an appeal of Nippon’s shoreline development permit before the Port Angeles City Council on Monday.
The groups are considering their next step and have said they plan to file an appeal with the state Pollution Control Hearings Board in the spring. The groups are the Cascade Chapter of the Sierra Club, No Biomass Burn, Port Townsend AirWatchers, the Center for Environmental Law and Policy of Spokane, the World Temperate Rainforest Network, the Olympic Forest Coalition and the Olympic Environmental Council Five of those groups — excluding the Center for Environmental Law and Policy and the Cascade Chapter of the Sierra Club — have filed an appeal with the state Pollution Control Hearings Board against the Port Townsend mill’s permit
from Ecology. One of the reasons for their objection to the facilities is a concern that biomass facilities would threaten the health of forests through removing slash. They also have said that the plants would increase air pollution. For more information about DNR’s forest biomass initiative and the original request for proposals for the study, visit http://tinyurl. com/2bj473t. The supply study is required by the state’s Forest Biomass Supply Agreements Bill, passed by the state Legislature earlier this year. Later this month, DNR will submit to the Legislature an update on the biomass initiative. It will include updates on
the pilot projects identified in state legislation as well as the literature review on the carbon neutrality of forest biomass.
Biomass legislation In 2009, legislation was enacted authorizing DNR to implement biomass energy pilot projects in Eastern and Western Washington. “Removing biomass feedstock in ecologically sustainable ways to produce energy [liquid fuels or heat and electricity] can provide income for forest landowners while improving forest health, create rural jobs, reduce wildfires and greenhouse gas emissions, and aid in the production of renewable energy,” DNR said in a statement.
Vehicular homicide charge dropped in ’09 case By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News
PORT ANGELES — Roger D. Mallicott, a Port Angeles man who was accused of vehicular homicide in connection with a motorcycle-versus-SUV wreck that killed his girlfriend in August 2009, has been cleared of the charge. Clallam County Deputy Prosecuting Attorney John Troberg filed a motion to dismiss the charge without prejudice Dec. 1. Superior Court Judge George L. Wood dropped the charge Friday, which Mallicott described in an e-mail as “a tremendous relief.” Troberg, who took the case from former deputy prosecutor Erika Soublet in October, said the state could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Mallicott’s driving caused the death of Shelly M. Bartlett, 45, of Sequim. Troberg reviewed the evidence with a State Patrol expert and determined that the state could not prove the case. “This decision was made after consulting with him and reviewing Ms. Soublet’s work on the case,” Troberg said. A related DUI charge has been referred to Clallam County District Court. Mallicott, 47, was driving a motorcycle with Bartlett as a passenger in the earlymorning hours of Aug. 16, 2009, when they collided with a 1999 Ford Expedition driven by Lovera M. Blackcrow, 31, at the intersection of Edgewood Drive and Dry Creek Road at the edge of the Port Angeles city limit, the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office said. According to the Sheriff’s Office’s investigation, Malli-
cott braked hard and lost control of the motorcycle, which overturned and ejected Bartlett. Bartlett hit the SUV and died about four hours later at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, court records showed. “Last year in the blink of an eye, my life changed dramatically, from a hard-working contractor to a disabled defendant fighting to prove my innocence over the accident that caused the death of my girlfriend, Shelly Bartlett,” Mallicott wrote. Mallicott and Blackcrow’s vehicular homicide cases were joined because they stemmed from the same incident. Both pleaded not guilty. Both were also charged with driving under the influence of alcohol.
Blackcrow trial Blackcrow is still charged with one count of vehicular homicide. Her trial is set to begin Jan. 10 in Clallam County Superior Court. Clallam County Superior Court Judge S. Brooke Taylor fined the Prosecutor’s Office $500 in February for incorrectly stating that Mallicott is a member of the Hells Angels and that an attorney

involved in the case represents the motorcycle club. “In reality, I am a member of the local club known as the Amigos,” Mallicott wrote. “Between the charges and the filed motion, I felt as if people’s opinion of me was not very good,” he said. “Not being able to work due to my injuries as a result for the accident and having to raise $100,000 bail put me in a financial bind as well.” Mallicott’s bail was exon-
erated nearly one year after he posted it. John Hayden, a defense attorney in the Clallam County Public Defender’s Office, was his lawyer. “I grew up thinking that in this country a person is innocent until proven guilty, but with having to pay bail, and with its conditions, my own doctor bills and an ignition interlock on my vehicle I felt that I was treated by the system as already being proven guilty although there
was no trial yet,” Mallicott wrote. In regard to the $500 fine, Judge Taylor said a statement in Soublet’s motion was “incorrect” and “disparaging” toward Port Angeles lawyer Karen Unger and that Soublet committed “a breach of the duty of candor towards the tribunal and opposing counsel.” The $500 sanction was appealed to the state Court of Appeals.
“The court sanctioned Ms. Unger for failure to file her brief in a timely manner but it is now filed,” Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney Deb Kelly wrote in a Wednesday e-mail. “We then filed a reply brief and the matter is waiting for a date for argument.”

Death and Memorial Notice Phyllis Munro December 24, 1920 November 29, 2010 Phyllis Munro passed away peacefully surrounded by family and friends at the Auburn Regional Medical Center on Monday, November 29, following a cardiac arrest. Phyllis was born December 24, 1920, in Vancouver, British Columbia, to Ruby and James Fisher. She spent her childhood in Vancouver and summers in Sechelt, and graduated from King Edward High School in 1938. In 1941, her good friend and future sister-inlaw, Connie Anderson, introduced her to the love of her life, George G. (Mac) Munro. She married Mac in Vancouver on February 28, 1942, just before he left for nearly four years in Europe with the Canadian Army. After Mac’s return from Europe, she moved to Sappho in 1946, to begin
Mrs. Munro her long stay in the United States, where she became a U.S. citizen. She lived in the logging camps of Hoko, again Sappho and finally Sekiu, where she spent 22 years raising her four sons. Phyllis, a city girl, met many of her very best friends in these small logging towns. She then relocated to Forks, Aberdeen and finally Auburn after Mac retired. Phyllis was never one to be idle, and along the
way she worked for General Electric in Vancouver, Seafirst Bank in Clallam Bay and Timberland Bank in Montesano. Phyllis is survived by her brothers and sistersin-law, Ron and Ann Fisher and Jack and Nora Fisher of Everett; sons and daughters-in-law, Grant in Port Angeles, Glenn and Olya in Eugene, Oregon, Ann in Eugene, Greg and Nancy in Renton, and Ross and Tammy in Camden, North Carolina; nine grandchildren; seven great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. Her husband, Mac, daughter-in-law, Carol, and two sisters preceded her in death. Phyllis always thought of others first, and even into the last week of her life was busy volunteering at the Auburn Senior Center and with the Meals on Wheels program. She took great joy in completing at least one crossword puzzle every day, gardening, playing pinochle, hiking, traveling
with her family and the occasional glass of red wine. She baked amazing blackberry pies and enjoyed going to movies and the symphony. Always a passionate follower of politics, she relished the chance to debate the issues of the day, but she never let being right come before being kind. There will be a celebration of her life at Rio Verde Clubhouse, 1402 22nd Street NE, Auburn, Washington, on Thursday, December 16, 2010, at 2 p.m. In lieu of flowers, please send donations in Phyllis Munro’s name to the Auburn Senior Activity Center or Meals on Wheels, Attn: Radine Lozier, 808 Ninth Street SE, Auburn, WA 980026233, office 253-9313016. Phyllis Munro, a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, friend, coworker and volunteer, will be remembered and missed by all who knew and loved her.

Tax cut pact ignores overspending The “grand bargain” agreed to by the White House to preserve the Bush-era tax rates, extend unemployment insurance for another year and reduce the payroll tax for 2011 doesn’t get to the heart of the country’s main financial problem: Overspending. Cal The Irish were told this Thomas week they are going to have to bite the bullet and sharply reduce their expectations of what government can do for them, as it cuts spending and broadens the tax base. But liberal Democrats in the United States remain on a different track: increasing debt and waging nonstop class warfare. Did they miss the message of last month’s election? This is where the self-indulgence of the 1960s and the excesses of the modern Gilded Age have led us. A little background courtesy of Digital History, www. digitalhistory.uh.edu, a website developed by the University of Houston’s College of Education to support the teaching of American history: It was Mark Twain who referred to the late 19th century as the “Gilded Age” — glittering on the surface, but corrupt underneath. Still, the era witnessed the birth of modern America.
The Western frontier closed, Americans settled 430 million acres in the Far West and the economy transitioned from a largely agrarian society to an industrial one, a shift that transformed the country. Incomes grew rapidly. More people prospered. “These years also saw the rise of the Populist crusade. Burdened by heavy debts and falling farm prices, many farmers joined the Populist Party, which called for an increase in the amount of money in circulation, government assistance to help farmers repay loans, tariff reductions and a graduated income tax.” Short-term government assistance, taxation and regulation became a monster that has brought dependence on government and an unsustainable debt. It is one thing for government to create a safety net. It is quite another for it to build a hammock. Penalizing success and those willing to take risks with their capital will mean fewer successful people and less capital. Why do Democrats, especially, seem to hate the successful, when so many of their party leaders are wealthy? Why do only Republicans want to talk about success while Democrats seem more comfortable in the company of failure and dependency? Last week, the Democratic congressional leadership transported dozens of people they said were long-term unemployed to plead for more unemployment benefits.
Where did the money come from to bring them to Washington? Wouldn’t Speaker Nancy Pelosi have done better sending these people the money it cost for their travel, housing and food? Even better, why didn’t Democrats offer the businesses that had fired or laid them off a tax break if they rehired them? The longer someone gets a check for not working, the less likely that person is to feel motivated to look for work. The idea that one can’t succeed without government ought to pose several questions: How many anti-poverty programs have emancipated the poor from an addiction to government? Why should government be trusted with more of our money when it has done such a poor job of spending what we’ve already given? At what time in our country’s existence have higher taxes on businesses and individuals created prosperity and more jobs (other than government jobs), especially for the middle class? Please don’t say, “during Bill Clinton’s administration,”
Peninsula Voices The Peacekeeper I have been in law enforcement for 26 years, the last 23 years in Clallam County. During that time I have responded to two incidents where officers were killed in the line of duty. In August 2000, Deputy Wally Davis was fatally wounded responding to a call. Officers approached the house and risked their lives to try and save Wally, even though an armed gunman was still inside. The Peacekeeper, which Mr. [Ross] Tyler so cavalierly disparages [“Armored
Vehicle Sees No Action,” PDN, Dec. 3] would have made that rescue attempt much safer for those officers. That is one of the main reasons it was acquired and named in honor of Wally. It is incredibly fortunate that it has not seen much use. I pray that it is never needed. I was dumbfounded that the county engineer would make such thoughtless comments about something that he clearly holds no knowledge, particularly during a week in which we celebrated First Responder Day.
because Clinton arrived at a surplus by cutting defense spending and without two wars and before the first wave of baby boomer retirees. Clinton admitted at a fundraiser in Houston in 1995: “Probably there are people in this room still mad at me at that budget because you think I raised your taxes too much. It might surprise you to know that I think I raised them too much, too.” Don’t look for liberal Democrats to become supply-siders when lower tax rates again produce jobs. That’s because they prefer to continue the class war, a war that finds them fighting on the
Our readers’ letters, faxes
As for the Peacekeeper being “a standing joke around here” ( I am assuming he means the county shop and employees,) maybe Mr. Tyler could have those employees focus on the job at hand and leave decisions about the Peacekeeper’s necessity to people who do know something about it — law enforcement professionals. Perhaps Mr. Tyler has shown by his comments what he really thinks about law enforcement. Glen Roggenbuck, Port Angeles
wrong side. Most people would like to be rich, or at least better off. Increased debt and acting as the welfare equivalent of a drug pusher, addicting people to more government, will not help them achieve that goal.

ment memo leaked via WikiLeaks, dated Feb. 10, 2010, summarized the consultations of the newly appointed Maldives ambassador to the U.S., Abdul Ghafoor Mohamed. The memo reports that the ambassador said, when meeting with U.S. deputy special envoy for climate change Jonathan Pershing, “Maldives would like to see that small countries, like Maldives, that are at the forefront of the climate debate, receive tangible assistance from the larger economies. Other nations would then come to realize that there are advantages to be gained by compliance.” He asked for $50 million, for projects to protect the Maldives from rising sea levels. Pershing appears in a related memo, dated a week after the Maldives memo, regarding a meeting he had with Connie Hedegaard, the European commissioner for climate action, who played a key role in Copenhagen, as she does in Cancun. According to the memo, “Hedegaard suggested the AOSIS [Alliance of Small Island States] coun-
tries ‘could be our best allies’ given their need for financing.” Another memo from Feb. 17, 2010, reported, “Hedegaard responded that we will need to work around unhelpful countries such as Venezuela or Bolivia.” That was from a meeting with deputy national security adviser for international economic affairs Michael Froman. The memo went on, “Froman agreed that we will need to neutralize, co-opt or marginalize these and others such as Nicaragua, Cuba, Ecuador.” The message is clear: Play along with the U.S., and the aid will flow. Oppose, and be punished. Here in Cancun, I asked Pershing and the lead U.S. negotiator, special envoy for climate change Todd Stern, about the memos, and whether the U.S. role amounted to bribery or democracy. Stern wouldn’t comment on the WikiLeaks cables, and said nations “can’t . . . ask for . . . climate assistance and then . . . turn around and accuse us of bribery.” I followed up by asking about countries that had U.S. aid money for climate stripped, like Ecuador

and Bolivia, for opposing the Copenhagen Accord. He and Pershing ignored the question. Pablo Solon, Bolivia’s ambassador to the United Nations, did have an answer. He said the facts speak for themselves: “One thing that I can say for sure is they cut aid to Bolivia and to Ecuador. That is a fact. And they said it very clearly: ‘We’re going to cut it, because you don’t support the Copenhagen Accord.’ And that is blackmail.” Solon is not optimistic about what can come from the Cancun negotiations. He told me: “The current pledges on the table will raise up the temperature by four degrees Celsius [7.2 degrees Fahrenheit]. That is catastrophic for human life and for Mother Earth.”

The fifth annual Forks Festival of Trees last weekend netted $16,000 for the Soroptimist International of the Olympic Rain Forest, said Mary Jacoby, treasurer of the organization, this week. The live auction of 21 decorated trees made $9,700 — not including a raffled tree, money from wreaths, the silent auction and bake sale, Jacoby said. “It went very, very well — but as everyone knows, we can always use more bidders next time,” said Ramona Anderson Oakes, president of the organization. “We aren’t professional designers, but I think we have some really elegant trees.” A wreath depicting a herd of reindeer made of woven cedar was purchased for more than $400. “The wreaths made $2,240,” Jacoby said. There was a public pre-
view of the 21 decorated trees Saturday. The awards for the festival were: ■ The Best of Show award went to a tree titled “All That Glitters is Gold,” sponsored by the Forks Emblem Club. The tree was designed by Joni Eades. ■ The People’s Choice award went to “Merry Christmas Princess,” sponsored by Forks Outfitters and decorated by Christine Treichel. ■ Santa’s Choice went to “I’m Dreaming of a Candy Land Christmas,” sponsored by Patti Birch and designed by Punki Goakey, Sharla Fraker and Pam Nelson. ■ Most Traditional prize was awarded to “Birds of a Feather,” sponsored by McClanahan Lumber and designed by the Bogachiel Garden Club. ■ Most Imaginative went to “Walking in a West End Wonderland,” which featured old photos of Forks. It was sponsored by Barn, Grafstrom and Grahn and designed by Christi
Baron and Leigh Grahn. ■ Most Contemporary went to “Merry Fishmas.” It was sponsored by D&H Enterprises and decorated by Heidi Gaydeski. One raffle tree, “Let There Be Peace on Earth,” was created in memory of Linda Thomas, wife of Bruce Thomas. Linda Thomas died of cancer in the spring. Bruce Thomas sponsored it. The group had not yet counted how much the raffle made. Proceeds from the Festival of Trees benefit Soroptimist projects, including educational scholarships, Relay For Life sponsorship, travel expenses for medical care for West End women with

Lightning knocks out electricity in West End By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News
FORKS — Most of those who lost electrical power after lightning knocked out a transformer in Forks on Wednesday were back in service by 7:45 p.m. “The vast majority of folks have power again,” said Mike Howe, Clallam County Public Utility District spokesman. Crews were fixing fuses that evening to restore power to areas still in the dark, Howe said, adding that he expected all to be back on the grid by morning. ________ The outage, which hit at about 5 p.m. or 5:30 p.m., Reporter Rob Ollikainen can be affected much of the West reached at 360-417-3537 or at rob. ollikainen@peninsuladailynews.com.

“All of Forks, Beaver, Oil City — that entire area is out,” Howe said earlier in the evening. “You name the city — they’re probably out.” Howe didn’t know how many customers were affected by the outage. At least one substation was affected by the bolt that hit the transformer. Another lightning strike hit a radio tower in Forks and took a local radio station off the air, Howe said. KVAC AM and KLLM FM operate out of the same station in Forks.

Quitting with a whimper FORGIVE MY WRITER’S block, but I’m trying to say goodbye to my Parliament Lights. It’s hard to concentrate on Matt much of anySchubert thing — even the beloved world of sports — when the thought of a quick smoke break continually wafts around your head. Still, this is something that has to be done; if not for my physical well-being (I’ve been told smoking is bad) than for my mental health (I’ve been told this ad nauseam since high school). It’s bad enough when I go to the doctor to get a rash examined and receive a 10-minute diatribe on the ills of smoking instead. But when I have to hear about it from coworkers, family members and strangers on the street, the motivation to quit quickly morphs into a desire to simply change the topic. (Side note: Everyone has a quitting smoking story, and they are all equally boring . . . much like this column.) So cut me a little slack during the next week or two, my dear Peninsulites. Pardon the (increased) grammatical goofs and (increased) factual foul-ups. The pull of the Parliaments is a strong one, especially when one quits cold turkey (my doctor pitched me Chantix, but I won’t give him the satisfaction). And I’m doing all I can to fight it off.

Meeting approaches If you care about fishing Lake Sutherland — and judging by all of the letters, you do — then Wednesday night is an important date. That’s when the state Department of Fish and Wildlife will hold a public meeting in Port Angeles to discuss a five-year fishing moratorium on the Elwha River watershed. Done in conjunction with the removal of two major dams on the Elwha, the moratorium would affect all tributaries and basins that drain into the glacial-fed river. That could include Sutherland, which has a kokanee population that fishery managers hope to build into an annual run of sockeye salmon. “Once those dams are gone, we’ll have a tremendous opportunity to rebuild fish runs that have been blocked from the upper river for the past century,” Fish and Wildlife regional fish manager Ron Warren said in a news release. “A fishing moratorium would support that goal, but we want to talk to area residents before we formally propose a plan to the commission.” Some anglers argue that a partial closure of Sutherland coinciding with the return of spawning sockeye salmon would achieve the same goal without taking away a popular Clallam County lake fishery. They will have a chance to voice that opinion at Wednesday’s public meeting at the Peninsula College campus, 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd., Port Angeles. The meeting is set to begin at 6 p.m. in Room M-125 of the Information Technology Building. At the meeting, resource managers from Fish and Wildlife will outline their proposal, which would begin next fall. Written comments on the proposal will be accepted through Dec. 31. Comments may be submitted to WDFW Rules Coordinator Lori Preuss at Lori.Preuss@dfw.wa.gov or 600 Capitol Way N., Olympia, WA 98501. The National Park Service, which manages Olympic National Park, and the Lower Elwha Klallam tribe have already endorsed a five-year fishing moratorium for the fisheries they manage in the watershed.

Cougar killing WSU stuns Gonzaga with 2nd half outburst The Associated Press
PULLMAN — Klay Thompson scored 24 points and had six assists as Washington State beat cold-shooting Gonzaga 81-59 on Wednesday night in the annual battle of eastern Washington rivals. Gonzaga (4-4) is suffering its worst start in Mark Few’s 12
years as coach, with three of the losses to teams ranked among the top 16. Gonzaga again was victimized by 3-point shooting, giving up 11-of-21. Thompson scored 21 of his points in the second half for Washington State (6-1), which has lost only to No. 5 Kansas State.
The main scoreboard at Friel Court was not working, and neither was Gonzaga’s shooting. The Bulldogs, who came in averaging 48 percent from the field, shot 39 percent and committed 25 turnovers. Leading scorer Steven Gray, who averages 20 points, scored seven. Sam Dower led the Zags with 11 points, while Robert Sacre had 10 rebounds. Washington State sank five 3-pointers in a 3-minute span during a 17-1 run for a 25-6 lead with 7:16 left in the half. Turn

Free-agent slugger Jack Cust and the Mariners agreed to a one-year contract Wednesday, giving Seattle a veteran designated hitter heading into 2011.

Breaking out Lynch finally finds seams for Seahawks The Associated Press
RENTON — For once, Marshawn Lynch didn’t need to dance around, waiting and hoping for a hole to emerge. Seattle’s lagging run game finally provided a little punch last week. “I think for any runner, any runner wants to see the looks and you want to get a feel for the line of scrimmage and how things are moving and then they start to take advantage of what they’re seeing,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll said. “There’s no question that that happened with Marshawn.”

Carroll and his staff made a commitment last week to better what was the worst rushing offense in the entire NFL. After weeks of relying on the pass and supplementing Matt Hasselbeck’s throwing with a mostly ineffective run game, Seattle flipped the script.

Outfielder Crawford headed for Boston Chicago teams lock up 1B; Yankees send offer to Lee By Ben Walker
The Associated Press
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. — The Boston Red Sox struck again at the winter meetings, reaching agreement with star outfielder Carl Crawford on a $142 million, seven-year contract Wednesday night. A person familiar with the talks told The Associated Press the agreement is subject to Crawford passing a physical. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal was not yet final. Crawford’s deal was first reported by The Boston Globe on its website.
On Monday, the Red Sox formally announced their trade for slugging first baseman Adrian Gonzalez of San Diego. Boston’s big deals follow a season in which it failed to make the playoffs. Earlier in the day, both Chicago teams filled their needs at first base — Carlos Pena joined the Cubs, Paul Konerko returned to the White Sox. Another first, too, at these meetings: The New York Yankees made their initial offer to free agent Cliff Lee. The Yankees will try to lure Lee with a six-year proposal worth nearly $140 million.
Easy to tell how eager they are to sign the prize pitcher. “Hannibal Lecter in a straitjacket Pena right now, waiting on this Cliff Lee thing,” general manager Brian Cashman said. Outfielders Jeff Francoeur and Matt Diaz found new teams while designated hitter Jack Cust and former All-Star reliever George Sherrill appeared to be on their way. Hard to tell about Tampa Bay shortstop Jason Bartlett, however. After a trade with Baltimore fell through, the Rays worked on a swap that would send him to San Diego.
The last full day of this week’s session was active, with many teams in the mix. Still in play are big-name Konerko free agents Adrian Beltre, Magglio Ordonez and Manny Ramirez, along with Lee. “The winter meetings have usually been a lot about first meetings, and we’re into second and third meetings,” top agent Scott Boras said. “I’ve gotten two deals done here. I’m trying to think back to when that’s happened. It’s been a while.” Boras put Pena and the Cubs together for what he called a “pillow contract” — $10 million for one year. “There’s a lot of comforts,”
Boras said. The 32-year-old Pena hit a career-low .196 this season with 28 home runs and 84 RBIs for Tampa Bay. “I’m extremely confident. I don’t tend to look back on my failures and dwell upon them,” he said. The Cubs, who traded star first baseman Derrek Lee to Atlanta last August, didn’t seem daunted by Pena’s drop-off. “It’s not a gamble. It’s a real good fit,” GM Jim Hendry asserted. “We have filled all of the essentials that we were looking for with Carlos.” Konerko got a $37.5 million, three-year deal to stay with the White Sox. The 34-year-old team captain hit .312 with 39 home runs and 111 RBIs last season. The four-time All-Star
was in Mexico, on vacation and overlooking the ocean, when he got a text message that the White Sox had acquired free-agent slugger Adam Dunn. At first, Konerko figured that meant his days in Chicago were Dunn. Then, he reconsidered. “Maybe they’re actually going to make a push to get both of us,” Konerko thought to himself. White Sox spokesman Scott Reifert said season ticketholders seemed enthused about the team’s 2011 prospects. “Phones are ringing off the hook to the point that the sales department canceled its holiday party tonight to stay late and field all of the calls,” he said in an e-mail to The Associated Press.

Meyer quits . . . again Fla. coach resigns for second time
He plans to catch his daughters’ volleyball matches — his oldest is a sophomore at Georgia Tech and the other will attend Florida Gulf Coast next fall — and catch more of his son’s athletic events. “There’s not a perfect time, however, this is probably about as good a time you can have,” Meyer said.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — With his wife and two of his three children sitting a few feet away, Urban Meyer didn’t have to look very far to be reminded why he’s leaving one of the premier jobs in college football. It’s all about family. Meyer resigned from Florida on Wednesday, stepping down for the second time in less than a year. His first attempt, which lasted just a day, was for health reasons. This time it’s to be a better husband and father. “At the end of the day, I’m very convinced that you’re going to be judged on how you are as a husband and as a father and not on how many bowl games we won,” Meyer said at a campus news conference. “I’ve not seen my two girls play high school sports. They’re both very talented Division I-A volleyball players, so I missed those four years. “I missed two already with one away at college. I can’t get that time back.” The 46-year-old coach led Florida to two national titles but briefly resigned last December, citing health concerns. He had been hospitalized with chest pains after the Gators lost to Alabama in last season’s Southeastern Conference championship game. “Last year was a kneejerk reaction,” Meyer said. “This year was just completely different.”
Talks on Saturday Meyer called Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley on Saturday to tell him he was contemplating retirement. They met Tuesday to finalize his intentions. Meyer signed a six-year, $24 million extension in 2009, meaning he’s walking away from about $20 million in guaranteed salary. But Foley did agree to pay Meyer a $1 million retention bonus the coach would have received had he been employed on Jan. 31, 2011. This time, Foley doesn’t anticipate another change of heart. “He’s worked his tail off,” Foley said. “You think of what he’s rebuilt.
Tebow’s support
The Associated Press
Florida head football coach Urban Meyer announces his resignation during a news conference in Gainesville, Fla., on Wednesday. “He built one at Bowling Green, he built one at Utah, he built one here. It’s not just sacrifices here the last six years. “That’s 10 years of their lives, not to mention what he did before that as an assistant coach. It’s his time to step back and spend time with his family. You’re not getting it back. “I admire him for that.” Foley said the coaching search will begin immediately and hopes to have a new coach before Christmas. Although Foley declined to offer names, Utah’s Kyle Whittingham, Mississippi State’s Dan Mullen and Arkansas’ Bobby Petrino are likely on the list. Meyer said he planned to be involved in the search, which could make Whittingham and Mullen front-runners. Whittingham was Meyer’s defensive coordinator in Utah, and Mullen served as the offensive coordinator at Florida. Petrino was Foley’s second choice behind Meyer in 2004. “I don’t see why it should take that long,” Foley said, adding that he has not contacted anyone. Meyer’s announcement caught players, fans and the rest of college football by surprise. He called assistant coaches, many of whom were on the road recruiting, earlier this week to relay the news.
Quarterbacks coach Scot Loeffler told the AP he was “stunned” and that no one saw this coming. “We’ll be fine,” said Loeffler, adding that Meyer was planning to meet with his staff Wednesday night. “It happens in this profession. We’re just happy for him. He’s doing it the right way.” AOL FanHouse first reported the resignation, and fellow coaches were quick to praise his efforts at Florida. “The world of college football will miss Urban,” said former USC coach Pete Carroll, who left his job for the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks. “He did a great job coaching at Florida. “He had major personal issues and health issues a year ago, and I’m sure that he did everything he could to fight it off. Now he’s making decisions that are probably exactly what he needs to be doing.” Added ex-Florida coach and current South Carolina coach Steve Spurrier: “I believe he will coach again some day, but if he doesn’t, he will go down as one of the best coaches in college football history.” Meyer left open the possibility of returning to the sideline, but said it was not going to happen in the “immediacy.”
Former Florida quarterback Tim Tebow applauded Meyer’s decision. “I respect that Coach Meyer had the courage to make the decision that was right for himself and his family,” the Denver Broncos quarterback said in a statement. “He will be blessed and better off for it. “I am truly glad that he’s happy and no matter what, we both will be Gators for the rest of our lives.” The decision to walk away was even tougher because of Florida’s struggles this season. The Gators were near the bottom the SEC in every offensive category, got blown out in games against Alabama, South Carolina and Florida State, and finished 7-5. It was the most losses in Meyer’s 10-year coaching career. Several freshmen transferred, others threatened to leave and there seemed to be a huge divide between the team’s underachieving seniors and Meyer’s highly touted newcomers. Players refused to point fingers all season, but there were outcries for personnel and assistant coaching changes. There also was another arrest, the 30th involving 27 players during Meyer’s tenure. “I just think Florida deserves the best, and I’m not sure we gave them my best this year,” he said. Meyer seemingly didn’t give his family his best, either. “He’s always been the No. 1 advocate for preaching about family and making sure you take care of your family and everything,” punter Chas Henry said at the College Football Awards show in Orlando. “He’s one man I have unbelievable respect for about making sure you take care of your family. I understand this is a family decision. I have complete understanding, complete respect for it. “You’ve got to take care of yourself and your family, and that’s what he’s doing. He’s always going to be a legend and loved at the University of Florida.”
Hawks: Running game ignites Continued from B1 It may not seem like much, and it came against the 1-11 Panthers, but it was a huge step forward. “We just kept doing what we were doing and eventually they [wore down],” Seattle fullback Michael Robinson said. “I think it was more that than the holes getting bigger. “We ran the same plays in the first half, it was just we kept doing what we do and we stayed with it.” The renewed focus on running the ball was mostly evident in the second half when Seattle outscored Carolina 28-0. The Seahawks rushed for 126 yards in the second half, with Lynch gaining 57 yards and scoring all three of his touchdowns during that stretch. Justin Forsett also added 60 yards and averaged 10 yards per carry.
The most evident improvement was Lynch no longer searching for holes to open. Seattle’s offensive line — which has seen eight different starting lineups this season — began wearing down Carolina’s defense in the second half and the running lanes were there for Lynch to exploit. Lynch was the first Seattle running back with three rushing TDs since Shaun Alexander in his MVP season of 2005. “I just think collectively, with the quarterback putting us in the right position, with the playcalling, he might have checked out of something and put us into a better look. I think that was a big help to us,” Lynch said. “We just executed better overall on the day.” For Lynch, last Sunday was the kind of game he expected when Seattle brought him in from Buf-
falo in exchange for a pair of future draft picks in early October. His second game in Seattle, Lynch ran for a seasonbest 89 yards against Arizona on Oct. 24 and then watched Seattle’s running attack bottom out, the result of facing some talented defenses and constant changes on the offensive line. During that time, Carroll and offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates put more of the offensive weight on the arm of Hasselbeck, believing their best chance to win during that stretch was to pass first and spot the run game every now and then. The plan didn’t necessarily work as Seattle hoped. While Hasselbeck was putting up huge numbers in a few of those games, Seattle lost four of five and firstplace in the NFC West. The only game Seattle won, a 36-18 win at Ari-
zona, the Seahawks added 110 yards rushing to the 380 yards passing that day. Carroll said he pulled his running backs aside before making that decision to let them know the direction they were headed. The Seahawks also had the benefit of a fullback for the first time since Week 7 with the return of Robinson. Along with having an extra blocker, Lynch said just what Robinson sees and can share is a major plus. “Their attitude was great. They never griped about anything. They wanted to do anything we wanted them to do to help us,” Carroll said. “But naturally, they wanted to do their part and contribute more and so we definitely have always been pointed in that direction, and the fact that we now have come back in this last week and got it going the way we like, we’d love to keep it.”
Mariners: Cust signed as DH Continued from B1 waivers and reported to Triple-A. That was after he hit a He hit .272 with 13 homers and 52 RBIs in 112 team-high 25 homers for games last season. He added Oakland in 2009, but also 68 walks for a .395 on-base led the AL in strikeouts for the third consecutive seapercentage. Cust began last season son (164, 197, 185). The 31-year-old Cust is a with Triple-A Sacramento before being called up in career .245 hitter with 102 homers and 300 RBIs in mid-May. The A’s designated Cust parts of parts of nine major for assignment after spring league seasons. Seattle had plenty of training, then he cleared
holes to fill after finishing last in the AL West last season after being picked to win the division by many before the year. It was the club’s second time in the division cellar in three years — with the Mariners going 61-101 in both 2008 and 2010. Cust will be part of a young, inexperienced roster featuring a handful of veterans such as right fielder
Ichiro — who just won his 10th straight Gold Glove — and 2010 AL Cy Young Award winner Felix Hernandez. Cust was selected 30th overall in the first round of the 1997 draft by the Arizona Diamondbacks. The San Francisco Chronicle first reported the pending deal.

Private sector capsule’s round trip makes history The Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A private company launched a spacecraft into orbit and then, in a historic first, guided it back to Earth on Wednesday in a bold test for NASA that could lead to the first commercial space station supply run next year and eventual astronaut rides. The capsule named Dragon, built by Space Exploration Technologies Corp., or SpaceX, splashed down into the Pacific Ocean three hours after launching from Cape Canaveral. “Splashdown on target. Mission is a success!� the company announced via Twitter. NASA immediately offered congratulations.
Private-sector first Until now, only governments had accomplished reentries from orbit. The Dragon rode into orbit aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket. It circled the world twice, then parachuted into the Pacific, aiming for a spot roughly 500 miles off the Mexican coast. Recovery crews arrived quickly and put floats on the spacecraft. The spacecraft carried thousands of patches for company employees; no official payload was required for this test. An Army nanosatellite hitched a ride,
though, in a technology demonstration. NASA is hiring companies like SpaceX to haul supplies to the International Space Station following next year’s retirement of the space shuttle. Taxi trips for astronauts may follow. The flight had been scheduled for Tuesday, but was delayed to repair cracks in the upper-stage rocket nozzle.
First flight This was the first flight under NASA’s Commercial Orbital Transportation Services program, as well as the first flight of an operational Dragon spacecraft. SpaceX’s first flight of a Falcon 9 rocket, in June, carried a capsule mock-up that deliberately burned up on re-entry.

Antitrust, false ad lawsuit settled with PT’s Mobilisa Peninsula Daily News news sources
PORT TOWNSEND — Security technology company Intellicheck Mobilisa of Port Townsend and Eid Passport of Portland, Ore., have settled an antitrust and false advertising lawsuit without exchanging any damages, the companies announced Wednesday. Eid Passport acted against Intellicheck Mobilisa late last year with a suit
that Mobilisa CEO Nelson Ludlow called “frivolous and without merit� at the time. The two companies, in a joint statement, said Wednesday that neither firm would pay the other and that Intellicheck Mobilisa will ensure Eid Passport has acces to driver’s license parsing software from Positive Access Corp., now owned by Intellicheck Mobilisa.
Each firm also will pay its own attorney’s fees that stemmed from the lawsuit. The suit accused Intellicheck Mobilisa of anticompetitive and predatory conduct after Mobilisa acquired Positive Access Corp. on Sept. 1, 2009, and canceled the licensing contract Eid Passport held with Positive Access. The suit alleged that Intellicheck Mobilisa engaged in unlawful activi-
ties by acquiring the specialized software company for the driver’s-license validation market with the purpose of cutting off Eid Passport’s access to the software. Both companies are involved in making devices for driver’s-license validation at U.S. military bases. Ludlow said at the time that the last thing on his mind during the acquisition of Positive Access was cutting off Eid Passport.

Costco does well PORTLAND, Ore. — Costco Wholesale Corp. said its first-quarter net income rose 17 percent — even faster than revenue — with help from higher gas prices and rising sales of high-profit items. The nation’s biggest wholesale club operator has done well compared with many retailers during the weak economy, as Americans increasingly turned to it for deals on everyday necessities such as food. Recently, shoppers have made more discretionary purchases in the clubs too. Costco said Wednesday that its net income jumped 17 percent to $312 million, or 71 cents per share, for the period that ended Nov. 21. It was $266 million, or 60 cents per share, a year earlier. Revenue rose 11 percent to $19.24 billion.

Attack Alzheimer’s? Why not . . . now? Last week, I shared what I called “amazing news,” “sad news” and “lovely news.” The “amazing news” had to do with a new shoe that has a built-in GPS tracking device. And it actually looks like a normal, respectable shoe. While this might be helpful for AWOL adolescents or navigationally challenged husbands who are constitutionally incapable of asking for directions, its real application is targeted toward folks who “wander” due to some medical or physiological condition. The GPS allows caregivers to find their “person” quickly, and in this particular world, quick equals survival. They aren’t the only folks who “wander.” But you know, as I do, that, number-wise, we’re talking about Alzheimer’s patients. And you’ve heard the statistics, I’m sure: The likelihood of Alzheimer’s disease (or symptoms that look like it or some other form of dementia, so I’m just going to say “Alzheimer’s”) doubles every five years after age 65. When you hit 85 or bet-

Alzheimer’s hardly equals immortality. If we can’t get to it for the humanness, then get to it for the bucks. Do you know what it costs to care for someone in a nursing home for a year? I do, but I don’t really care what your motivation is. What I see — every day — is the toll this takes on families. What’s to be gained?

Mom resents son’s freeloading ‘friend’ DEAR ABBY: My son, “Dennis,” is divorcing for the third time. He has primary custody of his oldest two children and shared custody of the younger two. He is an excellent father. I have stayed with him in his large home to help with the kids. I supplement their groceries with things we enjoy. Dennis has a female friend he confides in. He insists they are platonic, but she has told me she hopes to win him over. This woman has a hard time making ends meet but always has money for pedicures and out-of-town football games. She spends many days and nights with Dennis, showering there, eating his food and using his laundry facilities. I resent that she is eating or taking home the food I buy for the children. Am I being selfish? My husband and I live on a fixed income and must be careful with our money. Any suggestions? Wary in Minnesota

Cadillac has window malfunction Dear Doctor: I own a 2003 Cadillac CTS with only 27,000 miles. I recently replaced the battery and encountered a problem with the power windows. When I push the power button to have the driver’s window go down, the passenger’s window also goes down. The same happens to the rear windows, too. They all worked fine before I replaced the battery. What is making this happen? Will Dear Will: Most new vehicles have logic modules, body modules and door window modules. These modules are all subject to confusion when battery voltage is interrupted. I looked on our Identifix website and found the same condition noted from another technician. In this case, he disconnected the battery for one hour. This resolved the problem.
Dash cluster Dear Doctor: I have a 2000 Nissan Altima that developed a dash cluster problem two years ago. When temperatures dropped to 50 degrees while driving in stop-andgo conditions with the heat
the auto doc on at the Damato maximum settings and blower on the high position, the dash lights went out. Then, the engine bucked and stalled. The MIL lamp came on, and the dealer found trouble code PO500. They replaced a VSS sensor and recommended a new instrument cluster. I opted at the time for a used cluster, and it was fine for about two years — until now. The lights go out and stay off for 15 minutes (but this time, no bucking and no MIL light). Is there any advice you can give me on this? Kris Dear Kris: Electronic dash clusters are more common than ever, and as cars equipped with electronic dash clusters start to age, these units will beak down and need repair. Getting a used dash cluster will not work in all vehicles. Some vehicles need to have a dash cluster
Junior
programmed to the vehicle with the correct mileage, VIN number and other pertinent factors. When I have a vehicle with a dash cluster problem, I opt to send it out to a specialty shop and have the original unit repaired as opposed to using a replacement unit (which is rebuilt as well).
Gas tank, tube Dear Doctor: I own a 2007 Ford Focus with 80,000 miles. Recently, I’m having a very hard time putting gas in the tank. The gas pump keeps shutting off. The shop pulled out the gas tank and fill tube but could not find any problems. Do you have any ideas? Ann Dear Ann: Yes, I see this problem often. The first time I ran across this problem, I checked the Identifix website and followed the testing to a faulty canister vent solenoid. The local Ford dealership had a few in stock. When removed for checking, the solenoid should be open. If the solenoid is in the closed position, then it is bad.
Car of the Week
Rusted rotors common Dear Doctor: I recently purchased a new 2010 Camry with four-wheel disc brakes. I noticed the rotors looked rusted. The car stops well. Then, I saw another car parked next to me in a parking lot with the same rusted rotors. Can I assume this is common with all cars? Ira Dear Ira: Brake rotors will rust under certain conditions, especially when they get wet and the car is not driven often. Some rotors will rust and take more driving to clean the rust off. After a car wash, it is always advisable to drive the vehicle a few miles to dry off both the brake rotors and pads. The rust is more often than not a very normal condition.
