3 flee fire in mobile home By Rob Ollikainen Peninsula Daily News

Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News

The charred remains of a mobile home sit at 80 Spencer Road in the Carlsborg area. A woman and her two children escaped the flames.

CARLSBORG — A fast-moving fire destroyed a single-wide mobile home Wednesday near Sequim. Elizabeth Countryman acted quickly to move her two children out of the home at 80 Spencer Road, Clallam County Fire District No. 3 spokesman Bob Rhoads said. “She saw there was smoke and fire and went to get her children out of their bedroom,” Rhoads said. “She got them out quickly.” The fire was reported at 12:54 p.m. The home was engulfed when firefighters arrived shortly before 1 p.m. “Elizabeth’s swift action in getting the children out of the home was critical in preventing injuries or loss of life in this incident,” said Clallam County Fire District No. 3 Fire Chief Steve Vogel, the incident commander.

Fishermen spend 7 hours lost in woods By Tom Callis

Peninsula Daily News

FORKS — Will Newman is the first to admit that he should have known better. The 36-year-old Chicago man spent about seven hours Wednesday with his fishing buddy, Michael Warneck, lost in the woods while trying to find the Bogachiel River. Newman said they were simply too excited about the day of fishing ahead of them, and perhaps a bit arrogant, to think about bringing a map or compass. Turn

Peninsula collector has more than 200 scenes ranging from music box miniatures to flowerpot figures

A world of the Nativity — in all shapes, sizes By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News

Collector Sandy Roedell holds a figurine depicting Joseph and Mary on their way to Bethlehem. Roedell’s china cabinet holds hundreds more.

PORT ANGELES — The Bible has two versions of the Nativity scene. Sandy Roedell has more than 200. Roedell started collecting cards and figurines depicting the birth of Jesus starting 37 years ago. The figurines typically show either the holy family — Mary, Jesus and Joseph — in the barn where they stayed because no inn had room for them, the shepherds celebrating the birth of the Messiah, the magi who brought gifts or the flight of the family to Egypt when small children were being killed by King Herod, who was in fear of losing his crown. The stories are told in the Bible in the books of Matthew and Luke. Since she began collecting creches, Roedell has found dozens. Family and friends have added dozens more — adding up to a Christmas scene at her house showing off her reason for the season. Turn

A snowglobe depicting the Nativity, above, and figures made from tiny flowerpots are among Roedell’s collectables.

Student aid bids soar at Peninsula College By Paige Dickerson Peninsula Daily News

Applications for financial aid at Peninsula College have nearly doubled over the course of the past two years, even though enrollment has increased by only about 37 percent. “I am concerned with the future of the state budget in general and the sustainability of what we do,” said Krista Francis, direc-

tor of enrollment services and financial aid. Financial aid applications increased by about 92 percent in the last two years. In fall 2008, the college had 1,368 full-time students and 588 financial aid applications. By fall 2009, the enrollment had risen to 1,559 full-time students and 792 financial aid applications.

This fall quarter, the enrollment grew to 1,875 full-time students and 1,129 applications. By the time financial aid applications were due, many forms of financial aid had run out, Francis said. Some financial aid such as the federal Pell Grant or Stafford Loan never run out, but the state grants and institutional scholar-

ships were waning by Dec. 3, when the last applications for winter quarter were due, she said. “Our state-need grant allocation changes year-to-year based on served and unserved students from the prior year,” Francis said. “This year, we received more than we’ve received in the past. “So . . . it wasn’t reduced for us this year because we had so many

unserved students last year. “Even with the increase in state-need grant allocations, we still ran out early.” Although enrollment increased, because the applications for aid have increased by so much more, Francis said, she believes unemployment and other factors have played the primary roles in requests for aid.

Fred Foy, 89, an announcer best known for his booming, passionate lead-ins to “The Lone Ranger” radio and television series, died Wednesday of natural causes at his Woburn, Mass., home, his daughter said. Nancy Foy said her father worked as an actor before landing the job as the announcer Mr. Foy and narrator on “The Lone Ranger” radio show in 1948. The show’s live lead-in introduced its masked cowboy hero and his trusted horse with the line: “A fiery

horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty ‘Hi-Yo Silver!’ . . . The Lone Ranger!” Mr. Foy’s dramatic introduction and narration, performed in a powerful baritone, were so good it “made many people forget there were others before him,” said radio historian Jim Harmon, who called him “perhaps the greatest announcer-narrator in the history of radio drama.” “He pronounced words like no one else ever had — ‘SIL-ver,’ ‘hiss-TOR-ee.’ “But hearing him, you realized everyone else had been wrong,” Harmon wrote in his book, Radio Mystery and Adventure and Its Appearances in Film, Television and

Other Media. Mr. Foy never tired of giving a spirited rendition of “The Lone Ranger” introduction to anyone, anywhere, who would ask, his daughter said. “Dad would do the intro at the drop of a hat,” she said. “He loved it. He loved for us to let people know so he would be asked to do it.” Mr. Foy was born in Detroit in 1921, graduated from that city’s Eastern High School in 1938 and landed a job on the announcing staff of radio station WXYZ in Detroit in 1942. He was drafted into the Army that year and served in an Armed Forces Radio unit in Cairo during World War II.

It occurred at 4:30 p.m. at 72 Seventh St. Patrice Porter, who was quoted as an emergency medical technician in a story Sunday, is not a member of the Clallam Bay Fire Department, said Clallam Bay Fire Chief Patricia Hutson-English, whose name was misspelled in a Sunday story.

Hutson-English, who was not available for comment Saturday night since she was fighting the fire, had confirmed the name Sunday for the Monday story but said Wednesday that it had been corrected. The Sunday story erroneously said that the fire was on Sixth Street and quoted Porter as a paramedic. Hutson-English said Porter has not worked for the department for several months but may have been at the scene of the fire. The Sunday story also erroneously said that the fire started a little after 5 p.m. The Monday story corrected the time to 4:30 p.m. and corrected the spelling of the fire chief’s name in the Sunday story.

Thirteen Republicans broke with their top two leaders and joined 56 Democrats and two independents in providing the necessary two-thirds vote to approve the treaty. The vote was 71-26. The accord, which still must be approved by Russia, would restart onsite weapons inspections as successors to President Ronald Reagan have embraced his edict of “trust, but verify.” Vice President Joe Biden presided over the Senate and announced the vote. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton observed the vote from the Senate floor. Both had lobbied furiously for the treaty’s approval.

Obama toasts ‘season of progress’ after wins Revels in victories for tax cuts, civil justice, national security The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Buoyant in political victory, President Barack Obama on Wednesday wrapped up a long, rough year in Washington by rejoicing in a rare, bipartisan “season of progress” over tax cuts, national security and civil justice. Halfway through his term, he served notice to his skeptics: “I am persistent.” Obama spoke on the same day that he found enough allies in both parties to get Senate ratification of a nuclear arms treaty with Russia, a vote watched around the world as a test of international security and presidential clout. He also signed landmark legislation to allow gays to serve openly in the military, calling himself overwhelmed by the enormity of the moment. And that was on top of other achievements, including a hardfought deal to extend tax cuts and unemployment insurance even as it piled on more debt, a broad food security bill, a trade deal with South Korea and declarations of progress in the widening war

in Afghanistan. “If there’s any lesson to draw from these past few weeks, it’s that we are not doomed to endless gridlock,” Obama said. “We’ve shown in the wake of the November elections that we have the capacity not only to make progress, but to make progress together.” That spirit may be fleeting. Obama was able to get the votes he needed in a lame-duck session in which his party still controlled the House and Senate, retiring or ousted members could act knowing they would no longer face voters, and the potential of a politically devastating tax hike Jan. 1 forced lawmakers into action. None of those factors will be in play come January when Republicans take control of the House and have a greater voice in the Senate as well. To a nation long tired of political gamesmanship, Obama used the moment to try to put himself above it — and to challenge both parties to join him. He said voters wanted this “sea-

son of progress,” promising to stick with that mission and hoping “my Democratic and Republican friends will do the same.” He also did not get all he wanted, losing some fights and swallowing a two-year extension of tax cuts for wealthier people as part of the tax deal. Obama underscored his agenda ahead, much of it amounting to unfinished promises: deficit reduction, energy innovation, immigration reform, the closing of the Guantanamo Bay prison, education and research investments, and the biggest item of all: finding ways to create more jobs for millions of hurting Americans. In the course of questioning, Obama revealed that his position on gay marriage is “constantly evolving.” The president said civil unions are his baseline — at this point, as he put it. The slow progress on the economy continues to pull down the spirits of the country and threaten to overshadow many of Obama’s other successes. Obama sought to broaden the burden of responsibility to Republicans for a faster economic rebound, saying “people are going to be paying attention to what they’re doing as well as what I’m doing.”

Re-enlistment urged after Obama inks ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ repeal By Pauline Jelinek The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama signed a new law Wednesday that will allow gays for the first time in history to serve openly in America’s military. And he urged those kicked out under the old law to re-enlist. The new law ends a policy that forced gays to hide their sexual orientation or face dismissal. More than 13,500 people were discharged under the rule since 1993. “I hope those . . . who’ve been discharged under this discriminatory policy will seek to re-enlist once the repeal is implemented,” Obama said. The question of reinstating those previously discharged was addressed in a months-long study done by the Pentagon earlier this

Quick Read

year on how the armed forces might go about implementing a repeal of don’t ask don’t tell. The study recommended that the Department of Defense issue guidance to all the service branches permitting those previously separated on the basis of homosexual conduct “to be considered for reentry, assuming they qualify in all other respects.” It said the fact that they were kicked out for gay conduct should not be held against them but added that if they received an “other than honorable” discharge for accompanying reasons, those reason should be considered. “No longer will tens of thousands of Americans in uniform be asked to live a lie, or look over their shoulder in order to serve the country that they love,” Obama said. As military leadership and advo-

cacy groups have warned in recent days, Obama also noted that the repeal will not immediately go into effect until the government goes through additional steps to roll back the old policy. Former Air Force flight nurse Maj. Margaret Witt of Spokane and retired nurse Army Col. Grethe Cammermeyer of Whidbey Island were at the signing ceremony. Cammermeyer sued for reinstatement in 1992 after being drummed out for being a lesbian. She and Witt won reinstatement after courts found their dismissals unconstitutional. In September, a federal judge in Tacoma found that Witt’s dismissal was unconstitutional because it advanced no legitimate military interest. She expects to rejoin the Air Force Reserve early next year.

A JURY WEDNESDAY recommended that a father and his son be sentenced to death for planting a homemade bomb that exploded inside an Oregon bank two years ago, killing two police officers and maiming a third. In a Salem, Ore., trial that spanned three months, prosecutors portrayed Bruce and Joshua Turnidge as bigoted men who hated authorities, were desperate for money and feared that newly elected President Barack Obama would take away their guns. “It’s all in God’s hands.

PRODUCERS OF “SPIDER-MAN: Turn Off the Dark” said the show will resume today after canceling Wednesday’s sold-out show to put new safety procedures in place. The state Labor Department said it is satisfied that producers of Broadway’s troubled musical had made the adjustments to prevent a repeat of this week’s serious injury of a stunt double in a fall. Labor officials worked at the Foxwoods Theater on Wednesday with producers at the show, saying that a second person will be required for safety. There are 38 separate moves where actors are put in harnesses to go up in the air.

Peninsula gets salmon recovery grants Peninsula Daily News

North Olympic Peninsula agencies have received a total of $2,407,258 in state grants awarded by the state Salmon Recovery Funding Board from federal money. The grants are part of $20.7 million given to agencies throughout the state to fix damaged rivers and streams, replace failing culverts and replant riverbanks with the goal of helping recover salmon from the brink of extinction, the state Salmon Recovery Funding Board said Monday. Clallam County agencies have received $1,074,347. Jefferson County organizations have received $1,332,911. Jefferson County also will share an award with Mason County. The Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group will use $126,745 to remove invasive knotweed from five river systems: the Union, Tahuya, Dewatto and the Big and Little Quilcene rivers. The Hood Canal group will con-

tribute $110,880 from a federal grant and donations of equipment, labor and materials. The grant awards are funded by the federal Pacific Coastal Salmon Recovery Fund. The funding was approved by Congress earlier this year. The awards announced Monday are in addition to awards that the Salmon Recovery Board reported in October. Those grants — in which $696,459 went to three Peninsula projects — were funded by the Puget Sound Acquisition and Restoration Fund. Then, Clallam County received $599,459 for two projects, on the Dungeness and Pysht rivers, while Jefferson County was given $97,000 for a Dosewallips River project. This week’s awards are to projects developed by local watershed groups to develop projects based on regional recovery plans, which are approved by the federal government.

Individual projects are reviewed by regional salmon recovery organizations and the state’s technical review panel before awards are made. “This local, state and federal partnership has made Washington a national model in salmon recovery,” said Steve Tharinger, chairman of the Salmon Recovery Funding Board. Grant awards are listed by county.

Clallam County ■ Jamestown S’Klallam tribe: $50,000. The Jamestown S’Klallam tribe will use this grant to build logjams in McDonald Creek to increase salmon habitat. The project is the second phase of a plan to return habitat to the creek. The tribe will contribute $13,277 in donations of labor and materials, while the state Department of Natural Resources is donating wood. ■ Lower Elwha Klallam tribe: $578,048. The Lower Elwha Klal-

lam tribe will use this grant to place logjams in the Elwha River. Removal of two hydroelectric dams is set to begin in 2011, and this project is an extension of the tribe’s efforts to restore the floodplain of the lower Elwha before the dams are removed. This project will extend restoration activities to a previously untreated portion of the river. The tribe will contribute $173,209 from federal and state grants and donations of labor and materials. ■ North Olympic Land Trust: $213,799. The North Olympic Land Trust will use this grant to buy and conserve 0.8 miles on the Pysht River and 0.5 miles of tributaries to permanently protect the river’s floodplain and channel migration area. The land trust will buy about 37 acres and protect another 57 acres using a voluntary land preservation agreement that will prevent development. This is the second phase of a multiphase, multiyear vision to protect up to 10 river miles reaching from the Pysht River’s estuary, which is protected by a Cascade Land Conservancy easement. The land trust recently purchased 22 acres of nearby Pysht River floodplain using a $417,459 grant. The land trust will contribute $277,331 in a state grant and donated property interest from the sellers. ■ Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition: $70,000. The Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition will use the money to complete a preliminary design for a project to upgrade a concrete fishway in Mill Creek, a tributary of the Bogachiel River near Forks, and a culvert crossing under Russell Road. The edges of the concrete fishway are being undercut, and two culverts are likely to

fail soon. ■ Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition: $162,500. The Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition will replace a culvert on Camp Creek, a tributary to the Sol Duc River, with a 70-foot-long bridge. The work will open nearly 1.5 miles of spawning and rearing habitat for coho, Chinook and steelhead trout. The coalition will contribute $87,500.

Jefferson County

■ Pacific Coast Salmon Coalition: $300,055. The grant will fund replacement of three undersized culverts on Donkey Creek. The culverts are under Clearwater Road, south of Quinault Ridge Road, and now block fish passage on Donkey Creek. The coalition will contribute $113,987 in cash, donated labor and another grant. ■ State Parks and Recreation Commission: $390,000. The commission will buy 129 acres along the south side of the Dosewallips River, another phase in extending a protected corridor for about five miles from Dosewallips State Park at the mouth of the river to Olympic National Forest. State parks will contribute $351,225 in donated labor and a state grant. ■ Wild Fish Conservancy: $302,699. The Wild Fish Conservancy will place logjams in the middle Dosewallips River in Olympic National Forest. The conservancy will contribute $97,000 from federal funding through the Pacific Salmon Treaty. In October, the Wild Fish Conservancy was granted $97,000 to place logjams in the middle and upper reaches of the Dosewallips River in the national forest. Information about the Salmon Recovery Funding Board and the Recreation and Conservation Office is available online at www.rco. wa.gov.

■ Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group: $35,000 This grant will go toward planning for conserving the Big Quilcene Estuary The salmon group hopes to buy 20 acres of land along the lower Big Quilcene River, below Linger Longer Road and within the estuary, and restore it for improved salmon habitat. ■ Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group: $35,820 This grant will fund the placement of logjams in the Little Quilcene River between Center Road and U.S. Highway 101 to improve salmon habitat. The group will contribute $30,785 from the state Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Landowner Incentive Program. ■ North Olympic Salmon Coalition: $199,295. The funding will pay for designing projects to improve the salt marsh habitat in Snow Creek on land owned by the state Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Jefferson Land Trust. The coalition will contribute $24,925 from a federal grant. ■ North Olympic Salmon Coalition: $70,042. The money will fund planting the shorelines of Salmon and Snow creeks. The coalition will contribute $14,000 in staff labor, a PORT TOWNSEND — A federal grant and donated pain management clinic that equipment. was the subject of a search warrant from the state Attorney General’s Office was open and treating patients Wednesday. On Tuesday morning, search warrants were executed at the Olympic Pain and Addiction Services at 1334 Lawrence St., which is owned and operated by Dr. James Kimber Rotchford, and at the doctor’s home. The Port Townsend Police Department and OPNET spokesmen said that both agencies were among those that assisted the Attorney General’s Office in the execution of the warrants. Assistant Attorney General Aileen Miller would not provide information about the warrants, which she said are sealed for 90 days. She said her department was concerned with Medicaid fraud. No arrests have been made. Port Townsend Police Sgt. Ed Green said Tuesday that nothing was found during the search of the doctor’s home. On Wednesday, Chief Criminal Deputy Ron Cameron, OPNET spokesman, said that the agency “has no investigative stake in this case whatsoever.” Rotchford did not respond to requests for comment Wednesday. In 2009, Rotchford was honored with a Jefferson County Heart of Service Award for his work treating patients at the JC MASH free medical clinic in Port Townsend. Rotchford was a primary motivating force in founding JC MASH in August 1994.

Bald eagle undergoes surgery to clean wound SEQUIM — A juvenile bald eagle that was shot in the left wing last week underwent surgery Wednesday to treat the wound. “The veterinarians at Greywolf Veterinary Hospital have successfully cleaned and treated the wound,” said Matthew Randazzo, spokesman for the Northwest Raptor & Wildlife Center of Sequim. “No bullet fragments were recovered. “Due to a bad reaction to anesthesia earlier in the week, the eagle was not entirely ‘put under’ during this operation. “It was painful, but he is a fighter and is doing well.” The young bird, which was born in the summer, remained in stable condition in intensive care.

“We’re optimistic but won’t know more for a few days while we wait to see if the fractured ulna bone in the left wing can begin to heal itself,” Randazzo said. If veterinarians determine that the wing won’t heal naturally, then they may perform surgery on the wing to help close the gap in the bone, Randazzo has said. “This will be a long process, and it may be months before we know for sure if he will ever fly in the wild again.” Because the bird is a juvenile, its coloring is brown. It hasn’t yet developed the trademark white feathers of adult bald eagles. Both the Raptor Center and the state Department of Fish and Wildlife are seeking tips on who shot the bird in a field near Beaver on Dec. 15. “Tips are continuing to

come in, and the investigation is ongoing,” Randazzo said. “No one has been arrested yet, but we are very optimistic about the eventual outcome.” Bald eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, according to U.S. Fish and Wildlife. A first-offense violation of the act can result in a fine of $100,000, imprisonment for one year or both. Penalties increase for additional offenses, and a second violation of the act is a felony. Tips may be reported to the center by e-mailing Randazzo at Matthew@ NWRaptorCenter.com and by phoning state Fish and Wildlife at 877-933-9847.

Nativity: Shows what â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Christmas is aboutâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Continued from A1 â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to collect something meaningful,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted it to be something that would show what I think Christmas is about.â&#x20AC;? Some of the creches are tiny â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one set in a music box is not much bigger than Roedellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s palm, with miniscule figurines glued into place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how they make those people so tiny,â&#x20AC;? she said. Others figures are larger â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nearly a foot tall â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and are carved from wood, sewn in fabric and cast in metal. One of her oldest pieces is a creche with the traditional feel of sweeping robes and adoring angels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That one was my motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one of my oldest ones,â&#x20AC;? she said. Although she canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember the first one she collected, nearly every Nativity scene has a story, a person and a meaning behind it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This one,â&#x20AC;? she said, pointing at a fabric set, â&#x20AC;&#x153;a friend of mine who loves to go to flea markets got â&#x20AC;&#x201D; she has found a lot of them.â&#x20AC;? Others are the result of travel. A Faberge egg from France reminds her of a European adventure. A carved wooden creche invokes memories of Thailand. An all-white set is a gift from her son when he was in Switzerland.

This Nativity set was painted by Roedell and her daughter, Cindy Turner. Some of the creches are traditional, with Mary gazing lovingly at the baby Jesus, Joseph at her side. Others are more unconventional â&#x20AC;&#x201D; banana plant sticks acting as the family, painted blue birds dressed up for a pageant, dogs playing the parts in the Nativity, even flowerpots shaped to look like the characters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of them are from missionary families who bring them back to sell to make money, and some are representative of different parts of the world,â&#x20AC;? Roedell said. Every year, Roedell carefully unwraps each one from the paper and boxes where they are stored and cleans off all available space

to set them up. A set of star-shaped plates are displayed in the china cabinet, surrounded by other figurines. Shadow box frames from the office, which normally are home to horse figurines, are brought downstairs for smaller sets. Window sills, the mantel of the fireplace and an art nook in the corner of her hallway all act as homes to the holy family. Once the home is in full holiday decor, she opens it to friends, family and even some strangers to take a look at her collection. This year, her open house was held Sunday, attracting a party-like atmosphere for the collection.

Chris Tucker (2)/Peninsula Daily News

This Nativity set is made from banana husks and came from Africa. The set is one of hundreds owned by Port Angeles resident Sandy Roedell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Why on earth should this just be for me?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Roedell said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted other people to enjoy it as well.â&#x20AC;? Although sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spent nearly four decades collecting the trinkets, she plans

to slow down. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course, if I get them as gifts, I will be happy,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And if I see a really, really special one, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably get one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But it is a lot of work to

do this every year, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thinking it is time to start scaling back.â&#x20AC;?

Death and Memorial Notice Margaret Clark Loucks September 26, 1920 December 15, 2010 Margaret Doreen Clark was born in 1920 in Shelton, Washington, to Jesse and Gladys (Burnett) Clark. Her death at home in Port Angeles came just three months after her husband, Jasper, died. Margaretâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early years were spent along Hood Canal, living in logging camps where her father worked. She attended schools during the Great Depression in Lilliwaup, Uncas (Discovery Bay) and Port Ludlow, and graduated from Shelton High School in 1938. After high school, she worked as a nanny and housekeeper in order to earn the $30 tuition needed to attend nursing school at Port Angeles General Hospital. The late Dr. J.J. Fairshter was one of her instructors, and Margaret graduated with her Registered Nurse degree in 1942. Mutual friends at Independent Bible Church introduced Margaret to Jasper. Two years later, they were married in Shelton, Washington, on July 3, 1942. She worked at Harborview Hospital while Jasper was stationed in Seattle with the Coast Guard, then at hospitals in San Francisco and New Orleans as Jasper was transferred to different Coast Guard schools. When he deployed to the South Pacific, she returned to Seattle and worked at Harborview until Jasperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return. After the war, Jasper

Mrs. Loucks used his GI benefits to put a down payment on their first house in Port Angeles. The next 10 years brought them six children, and Margaret was content to be a homemaker. They built a new home in 1953, and the large garden and beautiful flower beds became their pride and joy. Margaret was a deaconess at Independent Bible Church and graciously entertained visiting missionaries and church speakers. She enjoyed baking, gardening, sewing, knitting, quilting, photography and genealogy studies of both the Clark and Loucks families. In her final 20 years, she completed quilts her mother had started, and made new quilts for all the grandchildren and greatgrandchildren, with four to spare for babies not yet born. Hiking and fishing with Dad were important, and her favorite spot in the Olympic Mountains was the High Divide. Our mother was a gracious lady who never spoke a bad word about anyone and who loved

each member of the family unconditionally. She faced her last years of discomfort with grace, acceptance, and never a complaint. We will greatly miss her quiet strength. Her life verse was Proverbs 3:5-6. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding.

Commentary

Page

‘Greatest story’ well worth rereading Suppose what some call the “Christmas story” is true — all of it, from the angels, to the shepherds, to the virgin birth, to God taking on human flesh. By this, I don’t mean to Cal suggest it is true only for Thomas those who believe it to be true, but what if it is objectively true, no matter what the deniers say? What difference would it make? Should it make any difference? The narrative and the quotations written by the physician named Luke and by John, the closest disciple of Jesus of Nazareth, are unique and exclusive. The genealogical line of Jesus compiled by Matthew the tax collector is impressive

and compelling. The words spoken by Jesus and recorded by these men are phenomenal. They expose the inner darkness of Man, offering a roadmap out, while also revealing the light of God, offering directions into His presence. The information provided by witnesses to these events are either true, or not. The claims leave no room for middle ground, despite what some “theologians” claim. If they are not true, one must conclude “the greatest story ever told” was the result of the greatest conspiracy in history from which not a single “conspirator” later recanted. The One who spoke such heartwarming words, as C.S. Lewis has noted, was either a liar, a fool, or he told the truth. There are no other options. The “conspiracy” would have to have stretched over thousands of years, from the time of the prophets to the modern era when

millions continue to claim their lives have been transformed by this carpenter with no formal training, no college degree and no influence with the reigning religious and secular authorities of his day. Among other things skeptics have to contend with is why would so many people claim the story is true, including what would occur at the end of Jesus’ life on Earth, when they had nothing to gain in this life by promoting a lie? In fact, they invited persecution from the religious authorities, along with imprisonment and death from the Roman rulers, who treated any perceived or actual challenge to Caesar as a capital offense. Of course the story is fantastic. But who would want to follow a God that can be defined and understood by human logic? Such a God would not be worth knowing because he would be created in our image.

Peninsula Voices

I suspect even those who don’t believe the story secretly wish it were true. Who, or what else, offers the hope, cleansing and purpose for this life — as well as eternal life — like that presented by this child-man-God? In an age when love means lust and is too often conditional, this story offers a love that is personal, redemptive and unconditional. Christmas is the great story of God becoming human in order that humans might dwell with him. It is about the helper helping those who cannot help themselves no matter how hard they try. It is a gift better than anything the fictional Santa Claus could give. And it is a gift that keeps on giving into eternity, never losing its value, unlike stock portfolios. Come on, what have you got to lose — only everything — by considering this greatest of all stories? Maybe you believed the story

Our readers’ letters, faxes

as a child, but with maturity came skepticism and later unbelief. Try reading it again as an adult. It truly is the ultimate gift and it has your (and my) name on it. It fits all who try it on and has the additional benefit of having been paid for by someone else. This gift never wears out. Once accepted, it so satisfies that people rarely return it. For what could it be exchanged? Can anyone name a better gift that has produced more positive and welcome results around the world for more than 2,000 years?

Obama’s yule gift to Internet giants One of President Barack Obama’s signature campaign promises was to protect the freedom of the Internet. He said, in November Amy 2007: “I will Goodman take a back seat to no one in my commitment to network neutrality, because once providers start to privilege some applications or websites over others, then the smaller voices get squeezed out and we all lose.” Jump ahead to December 2010, where Obama is clearly in the back seat, being driven by Internet giants like AT&T, Verizon and Comcast. With him is his appointed chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, Julius Genachowski, his Harvard Law School classmate and basketball pal who just pushed through a rule on network neutrality that Internet activists consider disastrous. Free Press Managing Director Craig Aaron told me:

“This proposal appears to be riddled with loopholes that would open the door to all kinds of future abuses, allowing companies like AT&T, Comcast, Verizon, the big Internet service providers, to decide which websites are going to work, which aren’t and which are going to be able to get special treatment.” For the comedian-turned-senator, Al Franken, D-Minn., the new rules on Net neutrality are no joke. “Verizon could prevent you from accessing Google Maps on your phone, forcing you to use their own mapping program, Verizon Navigator, even if it costs money to use and isn’t nearly as good,” he said. “Or a mobile provider with a political agenda could prevent you from downloading an app that connects you with the Obama campaign (or, for that matter, a tea party group in your area).” AT&T is one of the conglomerates that activists say practically wrote the FCC rules that Genachowski pushed through. We’ve seen this flip-flop before. Weeks before his 2007 Net neutrality pledge, then-Sen. Obama took on AT&T, which was exposed for engaging in warrant-

less wiretapping of U.S. citizens at the request of the Bush administration. AT&T wanted retroactive immunity from prosecution. Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton told Talking Points Memo: “To be clear: Barack will support a filibuster of any bill that includes retroactive immunity for telecommunications companies.” But by July 2008, a month before the Democratic National Convention, with Obama the presumptive presidential nominee, he not only didn’t filibuster, but voted for a bill that granted telecoms retroactive immunity from prosecution. AT&T had gotten its way, and showed its appreciation quickly. The official tote bag issued to every DNC delegate was emblazoned with a large AT&T logo. AT&T threw an opening-night bash for delegates that was closed to the press, celebrating the Democratic Party for its getout-of-jail-free card. AT&T, Verizon, cable giant Comcast and other corporations have expressed support for the new FCC rule. Genachowski’s Democratic

Party allies on the commission, Michael Copps and Mignon Clyburn (the daughter of House Majority Whip James Clyburn), according to Aaron, “tried to improve these rules, but the chairman refused to budge, apparently because he had already reached an agreement with AT&T and the cable lobbyists about how far these rules were going to go.” Clyburn noted that the rules could allow mobile Internet providers to discriminate, and that poor communities — particularly African-American and Latino — rely on mobile Internet services more than wired connections. Aaron laments the power of the telecom and cable industry lobbyists in Washington, D.C.: “In recent years, they’ve deployed 500 lobbyists, basically one for every member of Congress, and that’s just what they report. “AT&T is the biggest campaign giver in the history of campaign giving, as long as we have been tracking it. “So they have really entrenched themselves. “And Comcast, Verizon, the other big companies, are not far behind.” Aaron added:

“When AT&T wants to get together all of their lobbyists, there’s no room big enough. They had to rent out a movie theater. “People from the public interest who are fighting for the free and open Internet here in D.C. can still share a cab.” Campaign money is now more than ever the lifeblood of U.S. politicians, and you can be sure that Obama and his advisers are looking to the 2012 election, which will likely be the costliest in U.S. history. Vigorous and innovative use of the Internet and mobile technologies is credited with helping Obama secure his victory in 2008. As the open Internet becomes increasingly stifled in the U.S., and the corporations that control the Internet become more powerful, we may not see such democratic participation for much longer.

Thurston biomass project postponed The Olympian

OLYMPIA — The Thurston County commissioners approved an emergency ordinance Tuesday calling for a one-year moratorium on new wood-waste-toenergy projects in Thurston County. Meanwhile, engineers at Olympic Region Clean Air Agency have recommended approval of a permit that governs air pollution from the Adage wood wasteburning power plant in Mason County near Shelton. The two separate actions were the latest in a continuing debate over the merits of generating energy from wood debris. The Thurston County action, combined with state budget woes, could spell trouble for a $14 million proposed project to use wood waste instead of natural gas to heat The Evergreen State College’s campus. The commissioners invoked the moratorium in response to citizen concerns about plans for as many as five biomass projects on the Olympic Peninsula, including the Evergreen project. The moratorium gives the commissioners time to learn more about emerging biomass issues such as air emissions from wood-burning and gasification plants, fuel supply and how bio-

mass plants would fit into the county land-use code, county Administrator Don Krupp said. The commissioners’ ordinance caught Evergreen college officials off-guard. “We haven’t had time to truly understand what the moratorium means for our project,” said college spokesman Jason Wettstein.

The college expects to decide by mid-March whether to proceed with the project, college relations Director Todd Sprague said. The goal of the project is to reduce the college’s carbon footprint by reducing reliance on fossil fuels to power the campus steam boilers.

Watchers, one of the groups. “We’re heartened that Thurston County commissioners recognize the environmental cost of these biomass incinerators and, rather than rushing into things, have chosen to step and take these costs into account,” Brewer said Wednesday.

All but the Center for Environmental Law and Policy of Spokane and the Cascade Chapter of the Sierra Club are protesting the Port Townsend project.

Two injured in wreck on U.S. Highway 101 Peninsula Daily News

SEQUIM — Two people were injured Wednesday when the Ford Explorer they were riding in was hit from behind on U.S. Highway 101 near Dryke Road between Port Angeles and Sequim, State Patrol said. State Patrol said Carol Ann Kitts, 64, was driving the SUV when it was struck from behind by a Nissan pickup truck driven by Vanessa Bentley, 31, of Port Angeles on the eastbound shoulder. Kitts and her passenger, Phillip Kitts, 65, of Port Angeles, were taken to Olympic Medical Center

with neck and back pain, troopers said. They were discharged from the Port Angeles hospital by 5 p.m. Bentley was not injured. Troopers said the Kitts’ grandchildren, an 11-yearold girl and a 9-year-old boy, who were also in the SUV, were not injured. The children accompanied their grandparents to OMC, State Patrol said. Both vehicles were traveling eastbound and slowed down for traffic ahead. They had pulled onto the right shoulder when the collision occurred. Dryke Road is on the one-lane section of the state

highway, which the state Department of Transportation plans to widen to two lanes in both directions between Port Angeles and Sequim. Drugs or alcohol were not involved in the 11:35 a.m. wreck, State Patrol said. Both vehicles sustained reportable damage. The 2004 Ford Explorer was taken to Frankfurth Auto Body and Towing. The 2004 Nissan pickup was driven from the scene. All five people involved in the wreck were wearing seat belts, troopers said.

My wish list for the guy in red I KNOW HOW fickle your constituency can be this time of year, Santa. Deliver the wrong dump Matt truck to little Schubert Tony, and “Santa sucks” becomes trending topic on Twitter. Make a mistake with the color of precious Penelope’s My Little Pony, and a “Saint Nick smells like poop” Facebook group isn’t too far behind. Yes, those little tykes can be technological terrors when their demands aren’t met. But you won’t have to worry about that with yours truly. Not only do I have few material desires, but the only time I’ve ever tweeted anything was during a birding trip through Railroad Bridge Park. All I ask is that you give my athletic concerns some consideration. I’m pretty sure I’m deserving. As naughty as I might have been this year, I’m no Brett Favre. So, without further ado, here are my wishes: ■ Civic turf — This one might cost some money (OK, about $1.5 million), but it would be worth it to have an artificial turf field at Civic Field in Port Angeles. As Mrs. Claus probably already knows — I assume she’s an avid reader of Twilight — it rains a whole bunch out here. Having a field available that didn’t turn into a glorified marshland each fall and spring would be nice. Peninsula College got one paid for through grants and fundraising activities. And boy, is it pretty. You must have that fundraising capability too. How else do you pay for all those toys? ■ Save Sutherland — I’m sure you’re for fish conservation as much as the next fella, but even you must agree the possibility of a five-year fishing moratorium at Lake Sutherland is a bit much. It would be great to see sockeye salmon return to Sutherland after both dams are removed from the Elwha River (the reason for the possible closure). But couldn’t the spawners still be protected while having a seasonal trout fishery on the lake? Surely you have some sway with Fish and Wildlife to make that happen. Nobody is hunting your reindeer . . . yet. ■ Playoffs, please — Remember when bowl season didn’t start until you showed up at the Hula Bowl halftime show every Christmas? Well, now we have the Maaco, New Mexico and Beef ‘O’ Brady’s bowls (among others) days before you’ve even waxed your sleigh. Thus, we get the “pleasure” of watching two 6-6 teams battle it out for gaudy trophies adorned in corporate logos. Clearly, the tradition and pageantry that once made the bowl system unique and special is on life support. Why don’t you and I blow it up and put together a 12-team playoff? Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is on board. He’s just your kind of guy. He loves to give gifts. Just look at the massive contracts he gave Brendan Haywood, Shawn Bradley and Erick Dampier. ■ More Association — The Seattle SuperSonics bolted for the Dust Bowl three years ago, and Pacific Northwest winters haven’t been the same since. As the region’s basketball talent attests — 13 former Puget Soundarea high school athletes now play in the NBA, with more to follow — the Association belongs in Seattle. Luckily, there happens to be a team primed for relocation: the NBAowned New Orleans Hornets. As sad as it might be to see another team torn from its fan base, I think it’s clear we need the Hornets more than New Orleans. Turn

PA takes the ax back Riders win their own tournament By Brad LaBrie

Peninsula Daily News

PORT ANGELES — The ax is back. It took five years, three grueling wins, a tie in the championship match and down to the fifth rule of a tie-breaker for the Port Angeles wrestling team to win its own Battle for the Axe tournament Wednesday for the first time in six years. The Roughriders, who won the first tourney back in 2004 and went wanting the next four years, took Class 1A powerhouse La Center to the wire in the dual-meet tourney format. Both teams, 3-0 in dual meets going into the championship match, tied 36-36. That was after La Center, which has seven returning state placers and participants, took 12-0 and 30-3 leads over the Riders. Port Angeles outscored the Wildcats 33-6 down the stretch to earn the tie. It took about 10 minutes for tourney officials to go down a list of tie-breaker criteria before declaring Port Angeles the winner. The Riders beat out the Wildcats 5-4 as the team having the greater total number of six-point wins such as falls, defaults, forfeits and disqualifications. Pins by Nathan Cristion, Jacob Dostie and Ozzy Swagerty and two forfeits put the Riders over the top. That was enough for Port Angeles coach Erik Gonzalez to pick up the trophy, which displays a real ax, and show it

La Center’s Gabriel Bunker, left, takes on Sequim’s Lopaka Yasumura in the 160-pound class on Wednesday at The Battle for the Axe tournament. around while his team cheered. “We’re excited,” Gonzalez said. “It’s been too long between tournament wins. “It was a very dramatic match with La Center. I couldn’t have scripted it better. I’m excited for our fans, coaches and the kids.”

Sequim gives up trophy Archrival Sequim, the defending champion, gave up the trophy after claiming fifth place with a young and inexperienced team. “This is the highlight of the year for us,” Nathan Cristion, who was named the outstanding wrestler of Pool 1, said. “We have been trying to win this for all four years I have been here.” Senior Andrew Symonds, who started the comeback rally with a decision in the third match of the night, also was happy with the tourney victory. “It feels great to win the ax,” he said. “We wanted it bad.”

Symonds won his match 9-3 to get the Riders on board after the team trailed 12-0. “I’m an older wrestler, and I wanted to set the tone for my team,” he said. “I wanted to go out and wrestle well.” The Wildcats scored the next 18 points, though, to take a major 30-3 lead and make it look bleak for a Port Angeles win. Many of the Riders were looking tired after competing in their fourth straight match of the day. “It was a grueling day for us and La Center, returning seven from state, is as tough as nails,” Gonzalez said. “They beat us up, and that was the strength of their roster.” That was until Nathan Cristion decided to do some beating up himself. His early first-round pin made it 30-9 and opened up the flood gates. Cristion, who is 13-0 on the year with 12 pins, came out aggressive from the get-go, not giving his opponent much time

to think. “That’s how I like to wrestle,” he said.

Perfect performance Cristion went 4-0 in the tourney, all pins. Dostie then earned a fall in the second round to keep the rally going. In pool play, the Riders ripped Ocosta 70-12, beat the JV Dream Team 54-21 and battered Shelton 42-29.

Snow

damage

Work continues on the Metrodome in Minneapolis on Wednesday. Workers were close to clearing snow and ice from the roof. Bill Lester, executive director of the Metropolitan Sports Facilities Commission, said it’s still not clear how long total repairs will take, including whether it would involve replacing damaged pieces of the roof or replacing it entirely, and how much the repairs would cost.

Newton picked player of year The Associated Press

Jim Bates/The Seattle Times

Washington’s Matthew Bryan-Amaning (11) shoots over Nevada’s Olek Czyz (31) in the first half on Wednesday at Hec Edmundson Pavilion in Seattle. Wolf Pack, the most impressive was the five turnovers, after committing just four a few days earlier against San Francisco. “With as many possessions that we have each game, we’re OK with 13 turnovers in a game,” Romar said. “We don’t want any more that, but anything under we’re comfortable considering the possessions we have. “When you get it into single digits, you’re doing a really good job.” Dario Hunt led Nevada (3-9) with 16 points and 14 rebounds, while Deonte Burton added 14 points and Malik Story had 11 for the Wolf Pack. By halftime, Thomas

already filled the stat sheet. The junior moved into 21st place on Washington’s all-time scoring list with his 12 points in the first half, including eight in the final 6:30. The Huskies closed the half on a 14-4 run, capped by Thomas’ pass to a wide open C.J. Wilcox for 3 just before the halftime buzzer. It was one of Thomas’ three assists to go along with his six rebounds in the first half. Thomas wasn’t done in the second half adding another pair of 3-pointers and throwing a beautiful backdoor lob to freshman Terrence Ross for a twohanded dunk. Thomas finished 9 of 19

shooting with eight rebounds and four assists. His previous season high was 20 points against Portland. “I wanted to be highly aggressive, not just to score but to make plays,” Thomas said. “This was the last tuneup to Pac-10 and I just [had] to be more aggressive. I did that tonight, took what the defense gave me and we played well.” Washington played without pesky, defensive-minded guard Venoy Overton, who rested after hyperextending his knee in practice this week. The Huskies didn’t need his harassing style on the perimeter, as Nevada shot just 28 percent

Boise State rips Utah 26-3 The Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — It wasn’t the bowl Boise State wanted to be in, and for the better part of the first half Wednesday night, the Broncos played as if they were thinking about the one that got away. Then Doug Martin raced 84 yards up the middle, and suddenly the MAACO Bowl didn’t look so bad after all. Martin shook Boise State out of its brief postseason funk with his long touchdown run midway through the second quarter, and the 10th-ranked Broncos dominated the rest of the way to beat No. 20 Utah 26-3 in a game that wasn’t as close as the final score indicated. “It was a startup for our team,” Martin said. “A momentum changer.” The victory was small consolation for Boise State, which missed out on a possible Rose Bowl appearance on two missed field goals last month at Nevada. But the dominating win against a team that was at one time ranked No. 6 in the country was a reminder why the Broncos rode high in the polls before suffering their only loss in two years. It may also be a reminder for next year’s poll voters not to write off a team that won every game over the last two years except the one that really mattered. The loss to Nevada not only cost the school millions of dollars in a BCS bowl bid, but some of the grudging respect others had finally given Boise State.

By Tim Booth

SEATTLE — For much of the non-conference slate, Isaiah Thomas noticeably deferred to others at times. Facing his final tune-up before Pac-10 play begins, Thomas was a bit more assertive on Wednesday night. And the rest of his team looked pretty sharp too. Thomas scored a seasonhigh 24 points, and Washington rolled in its last test before conference play with a 90-60 blowout of Nevada on Wednesday night. Thomas did a little of everything, as the Huskies finished out the majority of their non-conference slate at 8-3, the only losses coming to Kentucky, Michigan State and Texas A&M by a combined 13 points. Washington has one nonconference game remaining on Feb. 22 against city rival Seattle. “I just know the real season starts now,” Thomas said. That real season will begin next Wednesday night as the Huskies start with a tough two-step: at Southern California and UCLA. It’s a significant test for a team that played just one true road game during the non-conference slate, a 63-62 loss at Texas A&M. But if the Huskies play like they did against Nevada, there won’t be many teams beating them. Once again Thomas, the Huskies leading scorer at 15 per game, got plenty of help. Matthew Bryan-Amaning added 16 points and could have scored a lot more if not for a number of close misses. Justin Holiday added 12 points and nine rebounds for Washington, but provided coach Lorenzo Romar with his one major scare of the night, falling to the floor with an ankle injury with 5:04 left and the Huskies leading 83-49. Holiday limped to the bench, then locker room and was getting preliminary X-rays after the game, but Romar said he didn’t believe the injury was serious. Seven-footer Aziz N’Diaye scored 11 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. But of all the stats Washington posted against the

AUBURN, Ala. — Cam Newton lifted Auburn from the back of the Top 25 to No. 1 in the nation. The Heisman Trophywinning quarterback led the Tigers into the national title game against No. 2 Oregon with a mix of flair and poise and enough highlight reel plays to widely split the vote among a handful of coaches and teammates asked for their favorite. Newton has already raked in the Heisman Trophy and Davey O’Brien and Maxwell awards for his spectacular season. He added AP Player of the Year to his collection on Wednesday. An NCAA investigation into Newton’s recruitment, which threw his eligibility into doubt during November, had no effect on how he played down the stretch — or the voting for the AP award. It was about as lopsided as the Heisman vote. Newton received 51 votes from the 60-member AP football poll panel. Boise State quarterback Kellen Moore received three, Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck got two and four ballots went unreturned. In less than a year, Newton has gone from the obscurity of junior college to helping transform a team that went 8-5 last season and started this one ranked No. 22 to a perfect Southeastern Conference championship. It wasn’t all about the big plays, though. Offensive coordinator

Gus Malzahn said he was more impressed by Newton’s leadership in repeatedly bringing the team from behind, including a 24-0 deficit at Alabama. “The sign of a special quarterback is one that has the abilities to make his teammates better and make his teammates believe in things that maybe they wouldn’t believe without him,” Malzahn said. “We’ve faced some major adversity earlier in the year when we didn’t know each other that well. “We were down to Clemson 17-0 at home and it was ugly as all get out. But he didn’t change then. He’s a rock, as far as all that’s concerned. Doesn’t panic.” It doesn’t hurt that Newton’s 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds with deceptive speed, nifty open-field moves, power and a nice arm. He broke the single-season SEC rushing record for a quarterback in the eighth game, a 28-carry, 217-yard effort against LSU. Malzahn also says Newton has proven he’s “not a good thrower, he’s an excellent thrower.” As the season wore on, Newton’s skills bloomed and not even a scandal could slow him. He deftly played through an NCAA investigation into a pay-for-play recruiting attempt involving his father, Cecil, at Mississippi State. The NCAA said Cecil Newton sought payment from the Bulldogs, but there was no evidence that his son or Auburn knew about it.

Battle: Preps

The Associated Press

Boise State head coach Chris Peterson and quarterback Kellen Moore celebrate their 26-3 win over Utah in the Maaco Bowl on Wednesday in Las Vegas.

Maaco Bowl Count Utah coach Kyle Whittingham among the believers. “This is a team that was the top ranked team that was setting itself up for a run at the national championship,” Whittingham said. “If they beat Reno [Nevada] and if Auburn or Oregon stumble, they’re in that game.” Neither of those things happened, of course, forcing Boise State to go begging for a decent bowl bid despite its gaudy record. The Broncos landed in this gambling city, where

the bookies quickly established them as 17-point favorites to beat a Utah team that also had its BCS dream dashed late in the season. But Boise State came out flat and seemed disinterested. Kellen Moore fumbled on the third play of the game and the Broncos turned the ball over three times to help Utah to a 3-0 lead. Martin then scampered up the middle and headed down the left sideline on the first play from scrimmage following a Utes punt. “It was huge,” Moore said. “We hadn’t been executing at a high level with our offense.

“Anytime you get a one play drive that results in a touchdown it’s a huge momentum swing and it gets everyone going.” Martin’s run came after a mistake-prone first quarter in which Boise State kept giving the ball away and making costly errors. Utah wasn’t much better, and when the Broncos began finding their stride the game quickly turned one-sided. Moore, who also threw an interception in the first quarter, rebounded with a 25-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Shoemaker in the closing seconds of the first half to give Boise State a 16-3 lead.

Ferry fare hike OK Attorney general clarifies earlier opinion The Associated Press

OLYMPIA — Ferry riders will see a 2.5 percent fare increase starting Jan. 1. The increase comes after the state Attorney General’s Office issued a clarification to an informal opinion released earlier in the week concerning Initiative 1053’s effect on the state Transportation Commission’s authority to hike fares on state ferries. The clarification said the Transportation Commission does have the authority to make the proposed increase because the rulemaking order was completed Nov. 19, before the effective start date of Initia-

tive 1053, according to a memorandum from Senior Assistant Attorney General Bryce Brown. Initiative 1053 went into effect Dec. 2. Kristin Alexander, spokeswoman for the attorney general, said the lawyer who wrote the original opinion wasn’t aware of the date the state Transportation Commission approved the original fare increase. Initiative 1053, which voters approved by a 64 percent margin during the Nov. 2 general election, reinstated the two-thirds legislative majority requirement needed for tax increases. It also requires majority legislative approval for

fee increases. Deputy Solicitor General Jeff Even determined in the informal opinion released Monday that the “initiative accordingly rendered legislative approval granted before the enactment of I-1053 insufficient to authorize the increase or imposition of a fee.” Because of the opinion, the state Legislature will have to approve any future fare increase for Washington State Ferries. Imposition of highway tolls will also fall to the Legislature. State lawmakers are considering an additional 10 percent ferry fare increase proposed by the governor to offset a budget shortfall.

Most ages 25-29 sold solely on cell The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — In a first for any age group, more than half of Americans ages 25-29 live in households with cell phones but no traditional landline phones. A report by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) also found that the younger children are, the likelier they live in homes with only wireless phones. That suggests younger parents are showing increasing comfort relying only on cell phones even as they adjust from being single to a more settled family lifestyle, according to one of the report’s authors. Taken together, the figures provide the latest evidence of how young people are leading the nation’s evolution away from landlines. “You could say that among that age group, wireless-only is the new norm,” said Stephen Blumberg, a senior scientist at CDC and an author of the survey. The shift is having a wide impact, changing not only how people communicate, but the telecommunications

industry and the work of pollsters and others who collect data. The survey showed that overall, 27 percent of U.S. households had only cell phones in the first half of this year, up 2 percentage points since the last half of 2009 That number has been growing rapidly; in the first six months of 2007, just 14 percent of households relied only on wireless service. Among 25- to 29-year-olds, 51 percent lived in homes with only cell phone service in the first half of 2010. That was up 2 percentage points from the previous six-month period.

Cell-only households For both age groups bracketing them — 18- to 24-year-olds, and 30- to 34-year-olds — four in 10 lived in cell-only households. After age 35, the likelihood that people have only wireless service falls off, with one in 20 age 65 and older living in homes that rely solely on cell phones.

The study also found that among children younger than age 3, nearly four in 10 live in wireless-only households. That figure drops to about a third of children age 3 to 5 and less among older children. Blumberg said this counters the perception — backed by previous data — that cell-phone-only households are likelier to be young, unattached people. The latest numbers suggest that as young people have families, they’re keeping their wireless-only habits. “It’s a sign that wirelessonly is no longer strictly tied to a lifestyle of being young and restless,” Blumberg said. The survey found an additional 16 percent of households have landlines, yet get all or nearly all their calls on their cell phones. Their landlines are usually hooked into computers. Combined with wirelessonly homes, this means that to call 43 percent of American households, the only practical way to do it is to dial their cell phones.

Adult listings dropped by Craigslist worldwide The Associated Press

Food bank funds raised by salon

general sent a joint letter to the website demanding its removal. A Craigslist official told U.S. lawmakers during a House Judiciary Committee panel a few weeks later that the website has no plans to resume its adult services section. Craigslist, which is largely free, has been under prosecutors’ scrutiny for years. It tried to police the postings on its adult services page by charging a fee to post the ads and requiring them to be vetted and approved. The section carried ads for a variety of erotic services that critics say veered into prostitution.

OLYMPIA — Washington state paid out $4.7 billion in unemployment benefits in 2010, the most in history. The state Employment Security Department said by the end of the year, more than 500,000 Washington residents will have received unemployment benefits this year, compared with 475,000 in 2009 and 290,000 in 2008. Last year, the state paid $4 billion in unemployment claims; in 2008, it paid out $1.2 billion. This year, the state unemployment rate reached 9.5 percent in March, which was the highest since the early 1980s. In November, the unemployment rate was 9.2 percent for the state. The state reached another all-time high in February, when 363,160 people were out of work and actively looking for a new job (the state doesn’t count those who had given up finding a job). In November, that number had fallen to about 323,000. “This has been another demanding year for Employment Security but even more challenging for those who still can’t find a job after months and months of looking,” said Joel Sacks, deputy commissioner of the Employment Security Department, in a statement.

OROVILLE — A federal inspection report has cited an artisan cheese maker for unsanitary practices. Sally Jackson Cheese of Oroville has voluntarily recalled all of its cheese after the Food and Drug Administration warned that the products could be contaminated by E. coli. The company’s cheese has been linked to eight people in Washington, Oregon, Minnesota and Vermont who have been sickened, one of whom was briefly hospitalized, the FDA said. The inspection report released Wednesday said the owner wore manuresoiled clothing during cheese production and milked livestock and stirred cheese curds with bare hands that hadn’t been washed. The owner, Sally Jackson, disputed the report but said she will close down the business. The report also said her facility is run-down and needed to be rebuilt.

HARTFORD, Conn. — Craigslist has confirmed that it removed its controversial adult services section from its international sites, Connecticut’s attorney general said Tuesday, four months after it did the same for its U.S. sites. September’s action came under pressure from officials, including Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, over whether Craigslist was adequately policing illegal ads. Blumenthal, who is also a U.S. senator-elect, said Craigslist representatives confirmed to his office Tuesday that it had removed erotic services listings from

hundreds of sites in dozens of other countries. Representatives of San Francisco-based Craigslist did not immediately return messages about when the change went into effect. Blumenthal called the company’s decision a victory against sexual exploitation of women and children, and against human trafficking connected to prostitution. “This move is another important step in the ongoing fight to more effectively screen and stop pernicious prostitution ads,” he said. Craigslist replaced the adult services section’s link on U.S. sites with a blackand-white “censored” bar Sept. 4 after Blumenthal and 16 other state attorneys

The commission-approved 2.5 percent fare increase is expected to bring in an additional $2.8 million through 2011. Beginning Jan. 1, riders will pay $9.35 to drive their car onto the Port Townsend to Coupeville ferry, up from $9.15. The price for a one-way car-and-driver ticket on the Kingston, Bainbridge Island and Bremerton routes would rise from $11.85 to $12.15. Monthly ticket books good for 10 round trips will go from $189.60 to $194.40. Passengers will pay $7.10 instead of $6.90 for a round trip, and their monthly passes would bump from $88.35 to $90.90.

Some things to think about, act on Well! In this very space, two weeks ago today, Dec. 9, 2010, I made a plea for a concerted, national effort to do away with Alzheimer’s disease, all the while feeling guardedly certain that I was, well, spitting in the wind. As it turned out, a number of you agreed with me, potential saliva-based consequences notwithstanding. As it further turns out, the night before said plea (Dec. 8), the U.S. Senate passed the National Alzheimer’s Project Act (NAPA) and sent it on to the House of Representatives, and on Dec. 15, the House passed it overwhelmingly.

Understandably, she was more than a bit upset and promptly called the number; indeed, she spoke with “Officer So-and-So, badge number blah, blah,” who confirmed the plight of President’s signature her hapless family.

Kin incarcerated Any of us would be seriously shook up if we honestly thought that kin (at least, those who aren’t given to routine incarcerations) were incarcerated, so if this happens to you, please, just take a couple of minutes to call somebody you trust and tell them what you just heard, then listen to their advice! Whoever that is won’t be as shook up as you are and will be able to see forests through trees. Please.

We need hope Now, Friday is Christmas Eve, and the day after that is Christmas Day. You may be admiring a Christmas tree or a menorah, holding your breath ’til Boxing Day or pacing yourself in preparation for New Year’s Eve. Or, you may be totally overdosed on the whole thing and, like a lot of the rest of us, feeling scared for yourself or your family or whomever else you might care about in one of the scariest times that’s come along in a long time. I get it. Me, too.

After that, unless your Advantage plan is leaving the area, you’re out of luck and out of choices until October 2011. And that concludes our business for today.

Yes, I am talking about pretending; some might call it “make believe.” Whatever your religious, cultural or philosophical bent might be, why not just think of it as an “excuse?” Well, really! We all kind of agree on other holidays that don’t require anyone to be a card-carrying member of any particular religion, and this season doesn’t have to represent a gun-to-your-head approach to salvation. It could just represent “hope.”

Have we forgotten everything we’ve ever learned about courage? About attitude? About faith? About hope?

This is our “job,” and now is the time to do it. We will make it; we can do this! And, in the meantime, we can treat each other gently.

Fun ’n’ Advice

Exclusion not part of the holidays DEAR ABBY: I am writing about the letter from “Turkey Eater in Texas,” who resented having a vegan Thanksgiving to accommodate two family members. I think your answer missed what being a gracious host is about. The entire meal shouldn’t have to consist of vegan items. However, it wouldn’t be a big deal to serve a vegan main dish and have those individuals also bring their favorite items. Making them bring a complete meal excludes them from a family gathering, and what fun is that? After your column ran, my father called to tell me that holiday dinners would no longer accommodate my daughter’s celiac disease. She’s 9 and struggles with being “different.” When she ingests gluten, she has cramps and vomiting, loses weight and risks significant long-term consequences. Next year, we will host the holiday dinners. Our extended family can join us — or not. The bottom line is that if you exclude family (for being vegan or having celiac disease), you’ve done the opposite of what holidays are about. Kaye in Alabama

For Better or For Worse

Frank & Ernest

Dear Kaye: That’s true. What bothered me about the letter from “Turkey Eater” was the idea that his brother expected him to cater the entire Thanksgiving dinner to his nieces’ preference to eat vegan. If the writer had said he had been asked to ensure there were dishes that would not inflame (literally) his nieces’ serious medical condition, I would have answered differently. What has surprised me about the comments I have received from readers about that letter has been the amount of prejudice and anger expressed against vegetarians by more than a few. But read on for some responses from vegans:

Momma

dear abby ing to them degrade my food Van Buren choices and try to “convert” me back to my “senses.” I have never expected them to cook for me. I always pack my own foods since they are unwilling to branch out and try new foods. When I have brought a dish, they all loved it, as long as they didn’t know it was vegan and that I had prepared it. I find many people are resentful if we host a dinner party with only vegan food. They expect us to accommodate them by cooking meat but feel we should fend for ourselves at a function they hold. I encourage people to please get over the stigma of vegan/vegetarian and sample something new once in awhile. If I can endure every family gathering taking place at a steakhouse, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to have one night when they experience how tasty food without meat in it can be. Rachel in Seattle

Abigail

Dear Abby: I am 31 and have been a vegetarian my entire life. I come from a meat-loving family and have never insisted they change an entire meal to accommodate my eating habits. Instead, I take food I know I will eat and share it with everyone else. “Turkey Eater’s” vegan relatives should realize they’re in the minority. If they each brought a veganfriendly dish or two, they’d have three to six things to choose from — and that’s plenty. Eating Well in New Mexico

The Last Word in Astrology LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your interest will lead to something you least expect. Putting your best foot forward and showing your generous spirit and charm to everyone you come in contact with will teach you a valuable lesson about life, love and success. 3 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may feel as if you have to explain your current position but, the more you talk, the more complicated things will get. Be entertaining and cheerful but avoid discussing any of your considerations for the new year. 3 stars

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Elaborate all you want but, when it comes to the bottom line, doing will make what you say believable. Go the distance. Your thoughtfulness will be well received and rewarded in ways you cannot imagine. 3 stars

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Get to the bottom of any emotional situation that is looming. This is not the time to let on that you are disappointed but it is the time to make sure you don’t let someone else down. A change of plans is likely. 3 stars

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Money matters will be of concern. Stay within your budget and you will enjoy the last week of the year. A pending agreement can be settled if you work fast and hard to do whatever legwork is required. 4 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t overdo it or let anyone push responsibilities on your shoulders that you really cannot handle. Less will be more this year when it comes to spending money, travel and commitments. Follow your intuition. 2 stars

CANCER (June 21-July 22): A last-minute change will be the icing on the cake this festive season. Use your imagination and you will thrill the people you love. Taking on a work responsibility to ensure that it’s finished on time may require your taking it home with you. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Not everyone will share your opinion or your attitude. Observe before you make a move that may not be in your best long-term interest. You can stabilize your situation by accommodating someone who helped you in the past. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It’s not too late to make changes. If you aren’t happy with something or someone, make it clear what you want and expect. You have the upper hand but must act upon it if you want things to turn in your favor. 5 stars

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t leave work unfinished even if you have to put in extra hours. Unless you finish what you started, it will be difficult to enjoy the festivities. Someone you love will be proud of you and will reward you accordingly. 3 stars

By Eugenia Last

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Spend time with the person you can share and reflect with or who makes you laugh and feel good about yourself. Change is heading your way and clearing the dead weight in your life is a must. 5 stars TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may not like what someone at home is doing but grin and bear it or emotions will flare up and make your world difficult. No matter what it is that you do not like, know that it will pass or change very quickly if you don’t make a fuss. 2 stars

Jeep’s radio on the fritz Dear Doctor: I own a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 14,000 miles on it. Every once in a while, my radio stops working while I’m driving. It comes back on randomly. And on one occasion, the power windows did not work. The dealer changed the radio, but the problem is still there. Any advice? Arnold

the auto doc Junior

Changing spark plugs

Dear Arnold: Your Jeep, like many other newer vehicles, has multiple control modules to operate accessories. The first step is to check for trouble fault codes in the body control module. This requires a professional scan tool, not a small, inexpensive universal scan tool. An updated revised computer software reprogram may be needed. The loss of the power window operation can also indicate a loss of 12-volt power from the ignition switch. The technician will need to check all possibilities.

Dear Doctor: I own a 2008 Dodge Charger with the Hemi engine with 18,000 miles on the odometer. I change the oil every five months with synthetic oil and quality filters. The owner’s manual requires that the spark plugs (16) be changed every 30,000 miles or three years. This will cost $500. I know that many cars now have plugs that are good for 100,000 miles. Are these also available for the Hemi? George Dear George: I do not recommend or believe in the 100,000-mile spark plug replacement.

I have seen too many spark plugs rot, blow out, and as well, I’ve seen stripped and torn-out heli coils in aluminum cylinder heads. I recommend you replace the spark plugs with the original brand and type every three years or 40,000 miles in Snow Belt areas. Sun Belt areas where rust is not a problem can go five years or 60,000 miles.

Secondly, the car is burning too much gas lately. I was getting 30 miles per gallon, but now I’m getting only 24 mpg. Why? Frank Dear Frank: Water or wetness in the trunk needs to be checked for its port of entry.

Cars

Dampness can sometimes be found under the spare tire in the bottom of the fender wells. A water test can also be performed to locate the source of entry by running water over the rear roof section slowly to see where it may entering the trunk. A loss in gas mileage during cold months is due in part to a change in the gas mixture, the engine running colder, plus lights and heat causing the alternator to work harder. On all fuel-injected engines, attention should be paid to the air filter, spark plugs and the oxygen sensor. I also recommend a backpressure test for partly blocked exhaust systems and catalytic converters. The engine temperature is an important part of engine operation. It has to be at 185-plus degrees for optimum performance and economy.
