State PDC probes complaint on Stober BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

The state Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) is investigating a complaint that Bailey Stober failed to file expense reports during his campaign against Ken Sharp for the Kent City Council. Stober lost the November race to Sharp, Stober who last week resigned from the council because of pending first-degree theft charges against him. Stober has said he plans to apply for the vacant seat. The council will pick Sharp’s replacement. “Yes, there is an investigation underway,” said Lori Anderson, PDC communications officer, in a Tuesday email. “It will likely be a couple of months before there is any progress to report.” [ more STOBER page 4 ]

Singer-songwriter reaches for the stars BY ROSS COYLE

Kent’s Tess Henley has won $35,000 through her piano playing and singing, and is gunning for a third prize pack at the Guitar Center SingerSongwriter competition in Los Angeles. ROSS COYLE, Kent Reporter

rcoyle@kentreporter.com

To say the music business is in Tess Henley’s blood would be an understatement. Her mother sang in a soul band and her brother is an award winning guitarist. Her sister helps manage her music business and her father looks for other ways to monetize her music. “Music was always around the

house,” she said while relaxing in her family home, a secluded house in the Kent-Covington area. “It was a natural progression that we started learning how to play more pop contemporary music and the music that we wanted to actually play instead of classical.” Henley has made $35,000 from winning two music competitions, and now the young singer-

songwriter has her eyes set on a third: the Guitar Center SingerSongwriter Competition with a hefty reward of $25,000 and an album recording deal among other prizes. “It’s a blessing for someone like me as an independent artist for opportunities like this,” said Henley, whose brother competed [ more HENLEY page 5 ]

Dating site thief says he wasn’t in it just for the money

KENT

January 24, 2014 [3]

BY STEVE HUNTER

shunter@kentreporter.com

A 24-year-old Kent man pleaded not guilty to a first-degree theft charge for reportedly taking $8,500 in cash from a woman he met through an online dating service. Efrem Addisu Menegesha entered the not guilty plea Jan. 14 in King County Superior Court, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. He is scheduled to return to court Jan. 28 when a trial date could be set or attorneys could ask for more time to prepare the case. Menegesha allegedly set up a Bellevue woman he met through an online dating service to steal cash from her for a trip to Las Vegas and a move

to Florida. King County prosecutors charged Menegesha on Dec. 31 with first-degree theft for reportedly taking $8,500 from the woman in September after the two had dated throughout the summer and planned to move to Florida, according to charging papers.. The woman told Bellevue Police she met a man named Josh on the dating website PlentyOfFish.com. They saw each other about every other day last summer. Near the end of summer, he told her he was going to sell his car and use the proceeds for a trip to Las Vegas and then move back to Florida. They discussed going together and on Sept. 6 the woman said she withdrew all of her savings

and gave notice to her employer. The evening of Sept. 6 Menegesha reportedly came to the woman’s apartment and took the cash out of her purse when she visited with her female roommate outside. Menegesha then left the apartment. The woman had told Menegesha she would pay her way to Florida and Las Vegas. She texted him Sept. 6 that she had withdrawn the money. She told police she was embarrassed about the incident and that she fell for the man. The woman told police she had a Styrofoam cup that the man had touched at their dinner on Sept. 6. Police ran the cup for prints and got a print that matched Menegesha. Kent Police had arrested the man in 2011 after a traffic violation for possession of a marijuana pipe.

Marijuana: state AG rules that cities and counties can ban the bud BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

Washington cities and counties can ban recreational marijuana businesses from operating in their jurisdictions, according to a formal State Attorney General’s Opinion. Kent and other cities have banned recreational marijuana businesses. Voters in 2012 approved Initiative 502 to legalize the possession and sale of marijuana in the state. “Under Washington law, there is a strong

presumption against finding that state law preempts local ordinances,” Attorney General Bob Ferguson said in a statement released Jan. 9. “Although Initiative 502 establishes a licensing and regulatory system for marijuana producers, processors, and retailers in Washington State, it includes no clear indication that it was intended to preempt local authority to regulate such businesses. We therefore conclude that I-502 left in place the normal powers of local governments to regulate within their jurisdictions.” Ferguson issued the response after a request

from the state Liquor Control Board Chair Sharon Foster for a ruling. The liquor board will issue licenses later this year for retail, producer and processing businesses. Ferguson said that while I-502’s drafters could have structured the initiative to require local governments to accept marijuana businesses, they did not do so. If the Legislature wants to change that, it can amend the law. [ more MARIJUANA page 5 ]

Stober said he just found out Tuesday about the investigation, which was launched this month by the PDC. “This investigation has been spearheaded by political motivation and partisan politics,” Stober said in an email. “My correspondence with the PDC throughout the campaign has been documented and will be used. I have absolutely nothing to hide. We had technical issues that we were unable to resolve.” Stober raised $7,055 for his campaign but didn’t file an expenditures report, according to the PDC website. State law requires monthly reports during a campaign and a final report in December after a November election. “Once the staff finishes the investigation, the complaint will be dismissed or staff will file charges so that a hearing can be held,” Anderson said.

seek the council’s appointment to Sharp’s vacant seat. The council plans to pick a replacement Feb. 25 after an application and interview process of people interested in the position. “This doesn’t impact my ability to serve the residents of Kent if chosen by the city council to serve,” Stober said. “I look forward to applying for the appointment and going through the process along with other Kent citizens and will honor the council’s decision.” Kent resident Don Mason filed the complaint on Nov. 27 against Stober. The complaint also includes allegations that Stober failed to file complete reports in 2011 when he lost a city council race to Deborah Ranniger. “Mr. Stober demonstrated he is well spoken, intelligent and well connected and his prior campaign experience,” Mason wrote in the complaint. “Yet, for whatever reason he greatly failed to follow the intent and the established rules in public disclosure in his 2013 campaign with one exception of filing C3 reports.” Candidates file C3 reports to document money donated to their campaigns. The expense forms are known as C4 reports. Stober served as his own treasurer, according to C3 reports about donations to his campaign.

Sharp resigns from City Council because of pending theft charges Ken Sharp has resigned from the Kent City Council just two weeks into his first term because of what he said were “pending legal issues I fear will become too distracting for my fellow council members, for the mayor and for city staff.” The 66-year-old Sharp won the November election and took an oath of office Jan. 7 under the shadow of looming first-degree theft charges. The city of Kent announced Sharp’s resignation Jan. 16 in a media release. Sharp attended his first and only council meeting on Jan. 7. Despite the theft charges, voters elected Sharp in November to a four-year term. He faces seven counts of first-degree theft for reportedly stealing $297,500 from his 93-year-old mother’s bank account and putting the money into his account. If convicted as charged, Sharp faces a prison sentence of 22 to 29 months. If convicted, he would have been forced to give up his council seat. Sharp pleaded not guilty to the charges Aug. 29. The five specific complaints filed by Mason include: • Failure to have timely and complete C4 reporting for the 2011 campaign. Mason alleges Stober failed to have a final C4 filing indicating what he did with his campaign balance of $3,231. • Failure to have any C4 reporting for the 2013 cam-

At a hearing, the PDC can dismiss the complaint or find a violation and determine what the penalty should be, Anderson said. The commission can level a fine up to $10,000, but fines can be as small as $100 to $200. “Hard to guess how much penalty might be assessed,” Anderson said. “Again, there may be no penalty. It just depends on how the investigation goes.” Stober said he has spoken to a PDC investigator and plans to cooperate to the fullest extent possible. “I must be afforded due process and as a result these investigations are often resolved and dismissed,” Stober said. “This isn’t the first time a candidate in Kent has had to respond to one of these investigations and I don’t anticipate it’ll be the last. This is a civil investigation not criminal and often the result of discipline is a monetary fine.” Despite the investigation, Stober said he still plans to

The Kent businessman is scheduled to return to King County Superior Court on Feb. 19 for a hearing, where a trial date could be set or attorneys can ask the judge for more time to prepare the case. Sharp told city officials he was disturbed his personal legal challenges are continuing to take away the focus of the good work by city staff, the mayor’s office and council. Sharp released this statement: “When I decided to run for the Kent City Council I did so with only the best intentions,” Sharp said. “I have never been a political person, preferring instead to work behind the limelight. I can honestly state that I entered the race for City Council with only the best of intentions believing it was a continuation of my service to the city of Kent. “The past six months have been the most agonizing and difficult time in my life. But it was my choice to continue with the election. Still, pending legal issues I fear will become too distracting for my fellow council members, for the mayor and for city staff. As a result, and with deep regret, I have decided that it is best for me and for the city of Kent that I resign my position on the Kent City Council.” – Steve Hunter

paign including all items required on a C4, Form A and any other reporting documents dealing with inkind contributions or loans. Mason notes that Stober’s campaign had activities that require expenditures, including the use of campaign signs posted throughout the city before the primary and general elections; the use of automated phone calling to

boards or commissions. The term of the person appointed to the position will begin immediately and end when the November 2015 election is certified. The person appointed is eligible to run for the position in 2015. The council is following the same format used to appoint Jamie (Danielson) Perry in 2008 after Councilman Bob O’Brien died in office from cancer.

So far, Bailey Stober, Debbie Raplee and Wade Schwartz have announced plans to apply for the vacancy. Stober lost to Sharp in November and is under investigation by the state Public Disclosure Commission for failing to file expense reports during his campaign. Raplee was a last-minute write-in candidate against Sharp and Stober. She served eight years on the council before losing to Bill Boyce in the 2011 election. Schwartz lost to Jim Berrios in the other council race in November.


several detractors questioned whether the schools’ ambitious goals would be practical or necessary within the district. The complaints centered on whether the schools ambitious plans – longer school days and more days in the year, a non-expulsion policy for failing students – would be practical when implemented. “I know that I work 10hour days most days as a teacher, I don’t know how they’re gonna do it,” said Becca Ritchie, who works for the Renton School District. “By the time 2:30 rolls around, they are tired, they are excited about what

[ HENLEY from page 1 ] in the contest last year. The 26-year-old Kentlake High graduate knows firsthand how expensive the music industry can be, she sunk almost $60,000 into the production of her second album. “They’re really lifesavers to me,” she said, “because everything just costs so much in the music industry as an independent artist.” Her inspiration comes largely from personal experience. Her first album centered on memories of her first relationship, which she developed in high school, while her second focused on personal experiences from college. But she always tries to make sure that — while personal in content — the themes relate to a wide audience. “I really strive to write music that lasts, and music that will test of time, that will still be relevant in 20 years,” she said. “And I try to write music that is emotionally moving in one way or another. I try to write songs that people can relate to, because I’ve seen the impact music has had on me.” Henley learned piano

[ MARIJUANA from page 3 ] “Local governments have broad authority to regulate within their jurisdictions, and nothing in I-502 limits that authority with respect to licensed marijuana businesses,” Ferguson said. Foster, the liquor board chairwoman, issued a statement in response to Ferguson’s opinion. “The legal opinion will be a disappointment to the majority of Washington’s voters who approved Initiative 502. We’re not yet sure how this opinion will change the

they’ve learned, but they also just want to go home and veg. You’re gonna put those kids in a 10-hour day situation – high teacher burnout – those are the concerns.” Ritchie also mentioned that the charter schools have a checkered history, pointing to the Kipp Charter School program as an example. Kentlake High social studies teacher Theresa Turner chimed in, saying that Excel would pull resources away from districts that could be used to improve public school programs. “We’re trying to get librarians, we’re trying to get counselors, we’re trying to get fifth-grade music

put back into our elementary schools, and its really important that we do that,” Turner said. “We’re providing quality education for our students, and the problem is that this takes away from the public schools.” Adel Sefrioui, heading Excel’s efforts to open in Kent, believed the forum was very successful in for publicizing Excel’s plan and showing the commission how much community support the school had attracted. “I think the forum went really well,” Sefrioui said. “I think there was a tremendous display of support. Thirteen of the 15 speakers spoke in support of our program, including parents and teachers from the

union.” One such supporter was parent Katie Elliott, who lives in Kent and has children in the district. “Adel explained his initial concerns with charter schools, and how they were going to override those concerns,” Elliott said. Sefrioui said that he felt he had already addressed many of the concerns Ritchie raised during her public testimony in his overview of the school, such as its non-expulsion policy. He also refuted Turner’s assertion that the Excel would draw resources away from the district. “That’s not true because we’re not part of the

district, we’re part of the state. We don’t take money away from the Kent School District,” he said. Because the school receives state dollars instead of Kent dollars, Sefrioui said there’s no need to worry about the district allocating money away from existing programs. Sefrioui has reached out to Turner and Ritchie to discuss their concerns in greater detail. The Excel Public Charter School is one of 18 schools vying for state funding to become one of the first eight charters in the state, and will operate with more autonomy than a public school while still receiving state funding.

at age 3 and continued to practice through junior high and high school, where she discovered soul, Motown and R&B — her mom’s singing genres. Despite her talents, she didn’t study music in college. She changed her major three times, finally settling on communications. The change coincided with the release of her debut album (which she recorded and released by herself), and Henley says it was the point in her life when she realized she wanted to pursue music as a career choice. “I had no business plan behind it,” she said. “I was just like ‘OK, here. I have an album and I’m going to play shows,’ and I had no idea what I was doing,” she said with a laugh. She continued performing three or four shows a week during her studies at the University of Washington, and was able to support herself through her work. “I started playing shows while going to school, playing maybe three times a week,” she said, “and then playing bigger shows where you’d promote for a long time, and eventually, by the time I graduated, I was just

going to commit everything to music.” After graduating in 2010, she returned home to focus on her music. Being at home affords her the resources, relaxation and scenery she needs to practice and write her soul and Motown songs. “It’s definitely helped, and I sometimes wonder how people can do it without that sort of support,” she said. “My brother just moved to (Los Angeles), and it’s so expensive down there. … It’s really hard to have the money to put into all your musical projects and still pay rent and living expenses and gas and so this has really helped me.” From home, she focused on outreach and growing her brand by relentlessly contacting producers around the country. Instead of waiting for someone to discover her talent, Henley made her own luck by contacting an album producer and coordinating with him to get in touch with Motown producer Dice Raw in 2011. They immediately set her up to fly to Philadelphia and record demo tracks. By mid 2012, she was record-

ing her second album, High Heels and Sneakers, in Philadelphia. “I was supposed to be out there for a month, and things always take longer, and I probably flew out at least 10 times.” The album’s release expanded her name and provided a jump start to her career. She’s spent much of her time traveling to Southern California and Philadelphia to perform. Just before Thanksgiving she performed at the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles and later sang the national anthem at a Seahawks game in December. It was the second time Henley performed at CenturyLink Field, but for a person who would rather spend her downtime with her family or at home, she recalls the experience as extremely stressful. “In that type of a situation minute by minute it could change,” she said. “I could be OK one minute and the next I’m thinking about something that’s stressing me out and then I’d have to calm myself down the next minute.” If she had to choose

one? She says she’d go with performing, although her initial reaction is writing. “Being able to share your music with people and feed off of that energy,” she said, “you don’t really know what to expect. It just makes for great memories and experiences” While she prepares for the Guitar Center contest, she’s also considering the next steps in her career, which she sees as performing outside of the area. “At this point there’s a ceiling in Seattle, especially for soul and R&B music, and so I’ve been a little more present in LA and New York, and trying to lock down a booking agent has been my priority.” Using her parents house as a “base” of sorts will give her the flexibility to perform traveling gigs and get out on the road. She figures it would be easier than relocating to a whole new area. “Do you want to spend your time traveling and playing shows, or moving somewhere and you kinda have to take a step backwards and start over a little bit,” she says. I’d rather set up shows.”

implementation of the initiative. If some local governments impose bans it will impact public safety by allowing the current illicit market to continue. It will also reduce the state’s expectations for revenue generated from the legal system we are putting in place. Formal Attorney General’s Opinions are statements of the Attorney General’s official views on legal questions relating to the duties of a public officer. They are not binding on the courts, but are usually given careful consideration and respect.

224th Street project: ‘Road to Nowhere’

Letters policy

On Jan. 20, an article was published in the Kent Reporter titled “State gives Kent another $5 million for 224th Street project.” The project will extend 224th Street over Highway 167 from East Valley to Benson. Cost estimates range as high as $31 million. As a taxpayer, the article is troublesome. The city continues to push for this street project although it does little to relieve traffic congestion. A far better and less costly alternative is widening 212th Street. According to the consultant hired by the city, the new road would only perform “slightly better” than doing nothing at all. One questions if “slightly better” than doing nothing justifies spending $31 million of taxpayers funds. In addition, the road dead-ends at Benson, forcing traffic to turn right or

left to continue east. That’s why the locals call the 224th Street project the “Road to Nowhere.” A far less costly and more efficient option exists, widening 212th Street. The Cities Transportation Master Plan shows widening 212th, from the valley floor to Benson, would be more effective at relieving traffic congestion. It

would cost $10.1 million or about $20 million less than the 224th Street project. The excess funds could be used for other road projects such as the BNSF railroad grade separation at South 212th. The 212th grade separation was recommended in a Jan. 4 letter to the editor (“228th Street project is puzzling”). My understanding is that the 224th Street project has not been scrapped because monies already collected through a Local Improvement District (LID) cannot legally be moved to another road project that makes sense. I urge the City Council to look into this and find a way to get around it. Councilman Dennis Higgins stated “On this project we’re like on the 5-yard line ….” Throwing good money after bad, no matter what yard line you’re on, is a reckless use of taxpayers’ money. – Jack Nixon [ more LETTERS page 9 ]

GUEST EDITORIAL

Eliminate our transportation bottlenecks before new Panama Canal opens Improving Highway 167 could help change the face of global commerce and the future of Washington state. Really. Traffic congestion is causing bottlenecks at our ports, creating costly delays for the shippers that use Puget Sound ports. Failing to

eliminate that congestion will make our ports less competitive, costing us jobs, business and tax revenues. That is true now more than ever. This legislative session, the transportation improvements to be voted on by

EDITOR’S NOTE

“Will the Seahawks win the Super Bowl?”

Mark Klaas

?

Question of the week:

Rich Hildreth has plugged into the idea that electrically charged transportation is the way to go – for the long run. With the greater availability of electric vehicles and charge stations to juice them along our corridors comes greater economic development opportunities for regional, state and local economies, Hildreth insists. The new wave of horsepower is taking shape and becoming more efficient, he observes. “As an electrician and a union member, I know how critical it is that our region helps lead the new green technology economy,” said Hildreth, an electrician who formerly served as mayor of Pacific. Hildreth says members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) No. 46 have been learning how to install and maintain electric vehicle (EV) charging stations throughout the state. It is one example of how blue-collar workers – even mechanics at local dealerships and shops – are adapting, doing green jobs. More technicians are being trained for the new-age industry, and more are on the way. “We applaud these efforts to provide new investment and family wage jobs as commonsense solutions to addressing climate change,” Hildreth said. “These are the kind of solutions that President Obama has called the nation to help fight the devastating effects of climate change through new industry and technology.” More commuters are joining the EV ride as well. Steve Marsh recently celebrated a unique milestone. In early 2011, the Kent man purchased a Nissan LEAF for his 130-mile roundtrip daily commute. Since then, he has racked up 100,000 miles on the car, using no gasoline, creating no tailpipe emissions and, by his estimation, saving thousands of dollars.

legislators in Olympia are linked to world trade and events in Panama, 3,600 miles away. What lawmakers decide could determine the fate of our state’s economy for generations. Here is a little background. On any given day in Panama, there are as many as 150 ships waiting in line to pass through the Panama Canal, which links the

Pacific and Atlantic oceans. Transiting the 48-mile canal can take 20 to 30 hours. Growing delays and the canal’s inability to handle today’s larger ships cost the Panamanian government billion in lost tolls. To address the situation, the Panamanian people voted [ more BRUNELL page 9 ]

“With a daily commute … I’ve saved more than $9,000 compared to my old gas-powered car since I bought my LEAF,” said Marsh, who credits Washington’s charging infrastructure. “With plenty of public charging options, as well as a charger installed at my office, my LEAF is a perfect car for my commute.” Hildreth also wanted to experience the EV ride for himself. To demonstrate the progress in the electric transportation industry, Hildreth drove an allelectric Tesla model S from the Blaine border crossing to Vancouver, Wash., last summer. The purpose of the trip was to demonstrate the “West Coast Electric Highway” and to highlight the dramatic advances in electric vehicles in the past few years. Hildreth was able to drive the “Cascadia Cruise,” demonstrating a chain of charge stations that make it possible to drive across the state. Hildreth went the distance, making six stops at fast-charging stations – Burlington, Everett, Seattle, Tacoma, Tumwater and Vancouver – sprinkled every 25 to 50 miles along Interstate 5 and other major roadways. A 2012 analysis by car expert Edmunds.com found that Washingtonians were among the top consumers of hybrid and electric vehicles in the country. To meet this rising consumer demand, more local electricians and companies are installing quick-charge and EV charge stations throughout the state as part of the green economy and to reduce climate emissions and increase the growth of clean energy. Gov. Jay Inslee understands the significance of completing the West Coast Electric Highway. Last year he said it was the responsibility of all Washingtonians to act on “climate change and to harness the economic opportunities offered by clean energy.” With the way our climate is changing and the uncertainty of future fossil fuel supplies, the EV wave can only grow. It’s a promising road to economic growth, to a healthier environment and to less dependency on oil, foreign or domestic. Ultimately, it means a bright future for commuters who could avoid paying painful high prices at the gas pump.

Originally projected to cost $5.2 billion, the final price tag could exceed $7 billion. The pause in the canal project is temporary, but it gives Washington state lawmakers an opportunity to greatly improve our state’s trade prospects by reducing the highway and rail congestion that is making our ports less competitive. Currently, our state benefits greatly from U.S. trade with Japan, Korea, Taiwan and China. One reason is our proximity to Asian ports. A second is that our ports can handle the supersize ships that can’t get through the Panama Canal.

Buckingham always well-liked Notes from here in Canada – where Mike Buckingham (a Kent Police and Kent Fire supporter who died Jan. 2) was often a part of our messaging at the Ontario Students Against Impaired Drive (OSAID), Students Against Drinking and Driving (SADD) or Canadian Youth Against Impaired Driving (CYAID) conference – he was a fabulous man – and he brought a lot to the issue.

Because those massive ships can’t fit through the canal, they load and unload their cargo at West Coast ports such as Seattle and Tacoma. The cargo is then transferred to trucks and trains headed east and south. But when the expansion project is completed, the Panama Canal will be able to handle more – and bigger – ships, meaning super freighters will be able to travel more efficiently and economically through the canal to ports on the East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. Ports on the Eastern Seaboard are spending an estimated $46 billion by 2017 to prepare for these larger ships. Nationally, the major railroads spent $14 billion last year on equipment and track and bridge improvements. In Washing-

According to Association of Washington Business data, international trade supports an estimated 846,000 jobs in Washington and generated $65 billion in exports in 2012. Washington’s trade-related employment grew three and a half times faster than total

Trade is also crucial to small employers in Washington, the source of most of our job growth.

You can even use a kitchen spoon to scoop a just emerging bulb from the damp soil. Place a bit of moss or gravel in the bottom of a teacup or mug and place your bulb, exposed roots and all inside.

…Go Seahawks

Sherman, hungry Hawks? Love these guys

COMMENTARY

Also like you, when Richard Sherman tipped the ball away from Michael Crabtree and into the waiting hands of Malcolm Smith (just like they drew it up!), I yelled in relief and jumped up and down in celebration. I love Richard Sherman. He’s the best in his position and not only did San Francisco know it (they didn’t throw in his direction all day), he proved it when the on the only pass going his way he launched himself into the air and made a game-saving tip, punching the 12th Man’s ticket to football’s promised land. Or, at least in this case, New Jersey. Then came the now worldfamous Sherman “rant” with sideline “reporter” Erin Andrews in which Sherman proclaimed himself the best and the receiver he just beat “mediocre,” adding “Don’t talk about me!” Again, I love that guy. I loved the interview. I love the energy. I loved that it wasn’t the standard cliches. But then I was also not surprised when a whole bunch of people freaked out. However, the vitriol aimed at Sherman this week has been ridiculous and stupid. The man had literally just made a play that sent his team to the pinnacle of their sport, besting a receiver with whom he has had issues in the past. Then, and this is what they didn’t show on television, he patted the receiver on the butt and stuck out his hand, saying “good game.” That’s when Crabtree pushed Sherman right in the facemask. You can watch it. There’s gifs of it, there’s video, there’s photos. Google it. It’s a fact. At that point, by Sherman’s own admission, he “went off ” and threw a “choke” signal at the San Francisco quarterback, who, let’s be honest, choked, and was promptly hit with a taunting penalty. Brian Beckley

I should probably start this column by clearing the decks in the form of full disclosure: As an import to the Pacific Northwest, I am not a true, dyed-in-thewool Seahawks fan. It’s true. My sports affiliations lie with the City Of Brotherly Love, as Philadelphia was my home when those connections were made, sitting with my grandfather and watching the Phillies all summer and the Eagles in the fall. There was a time in the 1980s, however, when the Eagles were just terrible and no fun to root for among the sea of Giants fans in which I lived (it was the Bill Parcells, Phil Simms years and the GMen were every bit as good as the Eagles weren’t). At that time, I started rooting for the Seahawks, who under Chuck Knox were the single most fun team to watch on Sundays. I distinctly remember that team faking field goals and punts, running trick plays like the hook and ladders or Statue of Liberty. Though the Eagles remained my main team. That said, I am 100 percent rooting for the Seahawks this year. Holy cow, what an exciting team. I have been out here for more than 10 years now and while most Seattle fans are fair weather at best, Seahawks fans have been dedicated and loud every year, good, bad or indifferent. This area loves its football team, especially this team, this year. And how could you not? I got on this bandwagon back in August though I would never consider myself “12th Man,” I have been loudly and proudly touting this team to all of my East Coast friends. And, like you, I spent Sunday afternoon pacing around my living room feverishly rubbing my hands together and yelling at my television when it was necessary.

Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman joined students at Foster High School for a homecoming pep rally last fall. Sherman talked to kids and judged a dance competition. His foundation also supplied new cleats for the football team and school supplies for kids. BRIAN BECKLEY, Renton Reporter Thirty seconds later, he was talking to Andrews and the instant punditry of Twitter and Facebook lit up with the n-word and, as captured so perfectly in that headphones commercial they played during the game, the word “thug.” And I laughed and laughed and laughed. See, I had a chance to meet Richard Sherman earlier this year at an event at Foster High School in Tukwila. Sherman was a surprise guest at the school’s homecoming pep rally and arrived bearing brand new cleats for every member of the relatively poor high school’s football team. He talked to the kids, judged a dance contest, and then headed over to a second event at the school, put on by his Blanket Coverage Foundation. At the event, Sherman and his foundation provided about 100 kids with backpacks filled with school supplies and other things, like socks. But Sherman, who grew up in poverty in Oakland, was quick to say it was not “charity” but an “investment” in the kids, all of whom he made sign a contract to get a backpack. The contract states that every kid who got a backpack has to keep their grades up and stay out of trouble. If they do, they get another pack full of supplies next year.

In between events, I had an opportunity to talk to Sherman. I found him to be friendly, intelligent, well-spoken and truly dedicated to helping kids get out of poverty. Richard Sherman was his high school salutatorian and went on to graduate from Stanford with a degree in communications. The man is very smart, very driven and very personable. Like a lot of people, I had a preconceived notion of Sherman based on his antics on the field and around game time. But I have to say, I was instantly made a fan and I realized that the persona of Richard Sherman on the field and the actual person Richard Sherman off the field were somewhat different guys. The country will realize that this week too. Richard Sherman is great for Seattle and great for the game of football. If he wants to go on TV and proclaim himself better than some other dude after making a play that kind of proves it, I am all for it. And I can’t wait to watch him prove it again against Peyton Manning. Go Hawks. Reach Renton Reporter Editor Brian Beckley at 425-255-3484, ext. 5050.

Kentridge tips Ravens to stay undefeated

Creigh eyes career as NHL referee

BY SHAWN SKAGER

BY ROSS COYLE

sskager@auburn-reporter.com

K-M GOLFER GETS COLLEGE SCHOLARSHIP Kent-Meridian’s Brennan Kunzelman has signed a scholarship to play golf and attend Cardinal Stritch University, a Catholic university in Milwaukee, Wis. Kunzelman, a 5-foot-4 senior, was a second-team All-South Puget Sound League performer in 2013 and a state Class 4A qualifier. She has shot personalbests rounds of 82 for 18 holes and 39 for nine. “I am very happy to have Brennan sign with Stritch for next fall,” Wolves coach Tim Eckberg told www.stritchwolves. com. “She has proven to be one of the top players in the Seattle area in her prep career, and after watching her swing, there is no question why.”

The No. 3-ranked Kentridge High boys basketball team survived a second-half comeback from South Puget Sound League North 4A rival Auburn Riverside on Tuesday, preserving its undefeated season with a 68-67 road victory. “It’s always tough down here,” Charger coach Dave Jamison said. “This is a hard place to play. They had a lot of guys playing well.” Kentridge (12-0 league, 16-0 overall) had its way with the Ravens (7-5, 10-6) in the first half, piling up a 41-23 lead at the intermission. Auburn Riverside, however, came alive in the third quarter, riding the hot hand of senior guard Derek Brown, who finished with a game-high 25 points. The Ravens closed to within five points in the waning moments of the frame as senior Derek White, Brown and junior Mitch Wetmore all converted on 3-point plays to put the score at 56-51 going into the last quarter. With Charger senior

When you ask a hockey fan about their dream position, the answer most likely would be goalie or forward for his favorite team. But not Al Creigh. Creigh wants to be an NHL referee, a member of the often discounted “third team” on the ice. Creigh, a 26-year-old aeronautical engineering student at the University of Washington from Sumner, first started officiating at the age of 15 for midget league games at the Kent Valley Ice Centre. He quickly ran into pressure from coaches and parents. “I completely hated it when I first started doing it,” he says with a chuckle. “Sometimes coaches and players and even some of the parents can be a little hostile, so it can be intimidating for a young guy to be out there.” During his first few games, Creigh said the pace reminded him of “a YouTube movie” that was constantly buffering, and he struggled to keep up with the rapid pace. Timing each call and keeping up with the game can be one of the hardest skills for a referee to

develop. He has a limited window of time available to make each call, but the ramifications of that call can change a game or even a career. “Whenever I do make a call, I have a split-second decision to make a call that everyone has a lifetime to look back on, so I make the best decision that I have to look back on,” Creigh said. This is Creigh’s first season officiating in the Western Hockey League (WHL), and he’s worked seven Seattle Thunderbirds games at the ShoWare Center. As each game begins, Creigh takes 20 to 30 [ more REFEREE page 13 ]

The Ravens’ upset dreams were smashed on the last possession of the game, however, as Kentridge senior Joe Wainhouse closed the door with a put-back shot as time expired, putting his team up 68-67 at the buzzer. “They hit some shots

and they got a lot of offensive boards,” Jamison said. “They had some guys finishing underneath for them. They played their butts off. They made a good run at us. We missed some shots we usually make and we had some foul trouble, so I couldn’t go to the man I usually go to (Stepney).” Senior Keasean Kelly scored 18 points to lead the Chargers, with Stepney adding 15 in limited minutes.

But he’s found that with the right rapport, players will approach him for advice about what regulation they’ve broken and how to avoid it in the future.

added 11 points. Brown led Auburn Riverside with 25 points, Wetmore adding 14 and senior Drew Wallen contributing 10. “This was a tough loss,” Auburn Riverside coach Earl Taylor said. “A onepoint loss is always tough. But we’ve got three more home games in our next four, and we’re hoping to be competitive and win those games. We need to just work on that game pressure

Creigh also notes that working as a rink official has taught him confidence, from the exposure to hostile coaches, players and fans. He’s learned how to control his emotions and isolate himself from the calls to keep the attacks from feeling personal. As he built relationships with coaches and players, much of the hostility diminished and players started to see him for his role in the game. “When players get upset, they don’t see you as a person, they see you as a referee,” he says. “I’m just the referee, and none of these attacks are directed specifically towards me.” Finally, working as an official has given him the kinds of problem-solving skills he hopes will be useful in his future work in aerospace. Managing a steamed 250-pound forward is significantly different than a Boeing employee. “If I can deal with an angry guy that outweighs me by 30 pounds with a stick in his hand, I can probably handle a couple engineers,” Creigh says.

Elvis pays center a visit March 6

IN A GLASS BY HERSELF Business woman shows her passion with antique store BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@kentreporter.com

Collecting antiques and other things is part of what Melissa DeSalle is all about. “It’s a passion,” said DeSalle, owner and operator of Melissa’s Antiques & Fancy Goods in downtown Kent. “It’s something that’s once in your blood, it stays there.” For DeSalle, it’s been her pursuit since she opened her first antique store after retiring as an elementary school secretary in Lompoc, Calif., in 1986. As the family moved, so did her shop – to Fort Collins, Colo., and Redding, Calif. She landed in Kent seven years ago to be closer to her daughter. Spotting a vacancy along West Meeker Street, DeSalle jumped at the

chance to open a business to sell, as she likes to describe, “antiques, fancy goods, vintage collectibles and funky junque.” DeSalle’s inventory is vast and varied and specializes in early American pattern glass and cut glass,

from the early 1800s to the 1950s. DeSalle is especially knowledgeable about those special-made glassworks of yesteryear. “I’ve studied it over the years,” she said. “It’s something I have a passion for, and I can share it.” DeSalle’s friendly and relaxed shop also offers antique furniture, pottery, dishes, vases, vintage lace and linen and many primitive items from the 1920s and ’30s. Her inventory reflects her many years of selling and buying in the antique industry. “I’ve always loved old things,” she said. “But when I first started doing this, I didn’t know much about (the business). I just continued along the journey.”
