School bonds proposition passing. . . just barely
A piece of home for airmen By Ray Still Reporter
The Enumclaw School District bonds must receive 60 percent to pass
T
hey may not be as magical as Dorothy’s ruby slippers, but U.S. airmen left Donald Eismann Elementary last week with a little bit of home tucked under their arms. Master Sgt. Jason Norberg, First Lt. Gina Consoli and Senior Airman Joshua Hitesman were presented with home made pillowcases, made by Mrs. Dana Davenport’s third grade on May 6. Norberg’s squad is being deployed to Qatar in mid-July, and will be taking the pillowcases with them. “It’s a great honor to be here,”

Candidates have until Friday to file By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
For those looking to toss their hat into the political ring, time is running short. In both King and Pierce counties, like everywhere else, the official filing period for the fall election season concludes with the close of business Friday. Filing opened Monday morning. This year’s campaign cycle includes an Aug. 4 primary and a Nov. 3 general election. Voters on both sides of the county line will help choose members of various city councils, school boards and fire commissions, along with lesser-publicized races in small sewer and water
districts. Here’s a look at the positions to be filled during fall elections, with the filing fee and incumbents’ names in parentheses.

Motorists will be most impacted by plenty of cycle traffic on 284th Avenue Southeast, but riders will cover other roads in the southeast area of Enumclaw after departing the Expo Center. Riders will turn west on Mud Mountain Road and travel back toward town, finishing on 268th Avenue Southeast. Saturday’s time trials cover a 10-kilometer course and will see riders hitting the roads at varying times between 7 and 11:30 a.m.

Railroad Street has the starting and ending point in the figure-eight course that extends north to Battersby Avenue and south to Griffin Avenue. Highly-traveled Griffin Avenue will be closed for the duration of the criterium, as will portions of Cole and First streets. The event gets under way at 1:30 Saturday afternoon, with the last race slated for 7:50 p.m.
Road Race
This event will have riders leaving downtown, heading east to cover Farman Road and Warner Avenue, eventually working their way over twolane roads to Mud Mountain Road; they’ll eventually climb the steep hill to a spot near Mud Mountain Dam, then return to town on state Route 410. A Junior Road Race covers just a portion of the course. Depending upon the skill level of the rider, the road race can range from 10 to 86 miles in length. It takes place Sunday, with the first riders taking off at 9:30 a.m.; the last wave will get going at 1:20 p.m.

Photo by Ray Still perform, Davenport’s class did something unique; they made their own businesses. As a class, the students decided their businesses would make and sell bracelets, and the proceeds from those sales went to buying sewing materials, iron-on patches and fabric markers to make and decorate the pillowcases. “They basically ran their own businesses for the past three months,” Davenport said. “I’ve always believed in project based learning.” Kyler, one of Davenport’s
students, said all the hard work was for a good cause. “I think it’s important because it’s hard being in the middle nowhere not knowing how far you are from home,” Kyler said. “We decided to give them a little bit of home in the pillowcases.” Reach Ray Still at rstill@ courierherald.com or 360825-2555 ext. 5058.

Norberg said before the students presented Project Pillowcase to the airmen, fellow students and parents. “They’re a great reminder of home.” Hitesman was glowing after he was presented his pillowcase. “It’s nice how the kids put time into this. It makes everyone feel appreciated,” Hitesman said. “All the guys in my squadron will have a smile on their face when they see them.” Norberg and company were presented with 26 hand-sewed and decorated pillowcases. “Each pillowcase is uniquely different,” Davenport said. “No two are the same.” Project Pillowcase started three months ago, when Davenport’s class brainstormed ways they could give back to their community.

BL girls fall in both ends of rare tennis twin bill The Bonney Lake High girls had an unusual afternoon of tennis Friday. Perhaps taking a cue from the world of baseball, the Panthers played a doubleheader against the visiting Peninsula Seahawks. The rare tennis double-dip wasn’t part of the original schedule. Rather, both matches against Peninsula had been rained out earlier in the season. With time winding down before postseason action begins, the call was made to play twice on a single afternoon. The bad news for Bonney Lake is that the Seahawks captured both ends of the twin bill by 3-2 scores. In both matches, the Panther wins came in doubles action. In the opener, the duo of Samantha Garrity and Kristen Cunningham earned a victory in the No. 1 slot, while Olivia Grob and Mindy Joyce captured the No. 3 doubles battle. In the nightcap, Panther victories were registered by, again, the Garrity/Cummingham duo at No. 1, along with the No. 3 pair of Kadie Demich and Kiera Watson. Other matches were as follows. Match 1 No. 1 singles: Allie Barry (P) def Elizabeth Matison (BL) 6-0, 6-0. No. 2 singles: Sasha Mayer (P) def. Kadie Demich (BL) 6-1, 6-1. No. 2 doubles: Lee/Burdyshaw (P) def.

Putting trust back into newspapers
Ask any salesperson what they need to sell a product and they’ll say two things. First, there must be a need for the product being sold. Second, there has to be rapport between the company and the consumer. The news industry is no different than a business in this sense. Information is a valuable commodity that will never depreciate, so the Ray Still, need for TV news Reporter stations and newspapers remains strong. What the news industry doesn’t have is rapport. For many reasons, the public finds it hard to trust us. According to a 2013 Gallup poll, only 21 percent of Americans rated newspaper reporters as highly honest and ethical. That’s just above lawyers and TV reporters (20 percent), cars salespeople (9 percent) and members of Congress (8 percent), and right below business executives (22 percent) and local officeholders (23 percent). I’m no statistician, but those numbers don’t look too friendly for us, and it only gets worse. According to the Pew Research Center, 66 percent of Americans said news stories are inaccurate. (Note that these numbers refer to the news industry in general. When people were asked about their local or favorite news sources, 62 percent of Americans said news stories are accurate.) Additionally, 77 percent of Americans said the news

Four dreaded farm words: The cows are out! There are four dreaded words every dairy farmer (and wife, son or daughter of a dairy farmer) hates to hear: “the cows are out!” Sometimes one is alerted by a phone call from a friendly neighbor, a helpful passerby might knock on the door to deliver the news or you might catch a looming black-and-white figure grazing in the flower bed out of the corner of your eye while strolling past a window. I once heard a story of my dad being raised from a dead sleep because he heard a cow chewing grass outside his bedroom window. Regardless, those four

The Allegro Women’s Ensemble and performing guests invite the public to “The Gift of Song,” an afternoon of musical entertainment to benefit the Weekend Backpack programs in Enumclaw and Buckley. The concert is planned for 3 p.m. Sunday, May 17, at The Claw, 1324 Roosevelt Ave. in Enumclaw. Weekend Backpack programs attempt to ensure that all children in the Plateau communities have the healthy food they need to grow strong in body and mind. School breakfast and lunch programs meet the needs of children five days a week; backpack programs provide food to help meet children’s nutritional needs when they may not have adequate access to food on weekends. The Weekend Backpack program supporting students and their families in the Enumclaw School District is supported and managed through the Rainier Wellness Foundation, Neighbors Feeding Neighbors Hunger Task Force. The program serving the White River School District is supported and managed by members of Community
Presbyterian Church. Both programs rely on the support of community donations. Between the two programs there are 384 to 400 food backpacks provided every weekend to students in Buckley and Enumclaw and there are a host of volunteers involved. Those attending the May 17 benefit concert will pay no admission charge but monetary donations will be collected. The ensemble and performing guests, together with The Equanimity Foundation that is providing the concert venue, are absorbing the cost of the benefit so 100 percent of all donations will be used to purchase food for the backpack programs. In addition to the concert, donations can also be made to both programs through the Rainier Wellness Foundation, P.O. Box 905, Enumclaw, 98022. Donors should specify “Weekend Backpack Programs” when making their contribution. Information about the Rainier Wellness Foundation can be found at www.rfwellnessfoundation.org. More information about the concert can be obtained by emailing: allegrowomensensemble@gmail.com.

tive livestock. This exciting turn of events was usually instigated by an open gate or powerless electric fence, both of which were easier to remedy than the chaos they created. It was only after all the cows are enclosed safely within a perimeter of fence that we could return to our regularly scheduled programming, unless of course, we had been sleeping when those four dreaded words rang in our ears. The amount of adrenaline coursing through one’s veins after 10 to 15
minutes of cow chasing isn’t really conducive to drifting off to sleep again. Early in 2001, my dad decided to retire from the dairy biz. His cows were loaded up and hauled out of the Veazie Valley for someone else to chase. It has been a long time since those four words have interrupted my life, but I’m positive the strongly conditioned response would still cause me to leap up and race for the door. Once a farmer’s daughter, always a farmer’s daughter.

J.B. McCallum, 53, of Enumclaw, WA passed away April 27, 2015. He was born and raised in Seattle, WA. He was a 1980 graduate of Ingraham High School where he was voted class clown his senior year. J.B. started his career with the Washington State Patrol on March 18, 1985 and served the citizens of Washington State for 25 years. He was a liaison officer to the Federal Railroad Administration where he was relocated to Washington D.C and educated police departments across the nation on railroad safety which was called Operation Lifesaver. During J.B.’s WSP career he trained 27 cadets which was more than any other field training officer. After retiring from the State Patrol in February of 2010, J.B. went to work for St. Elizabeth Hospital in Enumclaw where he worked for 5 years ending his career there as chief security officer. J.B. had a passion for trains which took him to the Mt. Rainer Scenic Railroad where he was an engineer for over 20 years. He also served as a volunteer fire fighter for district #46 for 10 years. As a boy he dreamed of being a Trooper for WSP, a railroad engineer and a firefighter, all of which he accomplished and excelled at. J.B. loved his family beach house on Bainbridge Island where he spent a major part of his childhood and continued to enjoy it with his family. He loved making people laugh with his embellished stories and impersonations, bringing much joy to everyone he knew. J.B.’s greatest passions were his two daughters, Kristin and Madison, along with his dogs Sam, Lila and Lollie and cats Mrs. Biggers, Mergatroid and Flaremore. J.B. is survived by his wife of more than 25 years Tracey, daughters Kristin and Madison, sister’s Andrea Rhodes and Sandra McCallum as well as many nephews, nieces, cousins and his uncle Barney McCallum. J.B. left us to be the eternal engineer on the train tracks that never end. A celebration of J.B.’s life will be held on Saturday, May 16, 2015 at 1pm at the Neuwaukum Grange Hall, 38402 180th Ave SE, Auburn, WA, 98092.

Apostle had a way of delivering a challenge The Apostle Paul was quite a guy. I know that is a huge understatement. He was great at unpacking hugely complicated topics over chapters but he also had the ability to put a spiritual smack down in one sentence. As I’ve been studying 1 Corinthians during the last year and a half I’ve found these nuggets. Recently, I found this one in chapter 14. Paul is going along talking about spiritual gifts and the way they should work in a service. In the middle of Paul describing the way Tongues, Interpretation

and Prophecy should all work together, he throws down a quality challenge. In 1 Corinthians chapter 14 verse 20 he says, “Brothers, do not be children in your thinking. Be infants in evil, but in your thinking be mature” (ESV). This verse starts of with the admonishment, “…

do not be children in your thinking.” What are some of the key differences between adults and children in realm of thinking? I came up with a couple that I think are important. A child reacts to information and adults respond to information. For example, when a child wants something in the store and is convinced they are in need of the item and a parent informs them they do not need said item, there is usually a reaction often times by arching their back and letting out a cry or scream. If they are walking they may fall on the floor and kick. Adults have grown in maturity and have learned to deal with disappointment. When told “no” as an adult there is a response to this information that is far more emotionally healthy and much less embarrassing. Also, adults have learned through experience where a child has not yet had that ability, which leads

rebels, according to Blanford. Since Syria is majority Sunni, al Assad can’t get more reinforcements from them. As the article stated, quoting a former Syrian official, “To prevail, 200,000 to 300,000 mothers need to be convinced to send their sons to fight. But why would a Sunni mother and father send their son to die for Bashar al-Assad?” Al Assad is fighting the rebels in both the north and the south of the country and has suffered strategic losses in recent weeks as Saudi Arabia and Turkey, as well as Qatar and Jordan, have allied against al-Assad. The various factions of rebel fighters have also been better able to coordinate their attacks and have attained major victories. Iran has already spent billions of dollars in weapons and thousands of lives to support al Assad. They would spend more, but the western sanctions against them are deeply hurting the regime’s ability to pay. That’s one major reason why Iran wants to sign a nuclear agreement so badly with the United States. It would free up resources to continue to support Hezbollah. This might be construed as an argument for the U.S. not to sign a nuclear deal with Iran, but the Sunni ISIS threat in Iraq and Syria is a big enough

problem for the Iranians. The U.S. also wants to see ISIS destroyed and is more willing to see Iranians fighting them rather than U.S. soldiers with boots on the ground. Israel and Iran may find themselves re-allying in the coming years, as they did during the shah’s years of rule. Both nations have common enemies among the Sunni Arabs that live between them. It seems logical that Israel and Iran would link up to protect their common interests in the region as strategy changes due to what occurs in Syria and Iraq. President Obama’s strategy of balance of power is already forcing Saudi Arabia and Turkey to become more active in the region. Neither country wants to see Iran as the dominant regional power. Obama’s strategy seems to play the three major regional powers off against each other, so the U.S. can continue its pivot to Asia to counter China’s growing aggression in that region. The Syrian civil war bears continual watching to see which in direction dominance in the region will gravitate. Expect to see the battles continuing with no real end to the conf licts.

Technology improves individualized learning By Ray Still Reporter
When I was in the fourth grade, my classroom was selected to be one of the first classes in the district to use a smart television. In 1999, this smart television prototype was a monster – it took up a whole corner of the room, and a ring of three or four of the tallest students could maybe encircle it by linking hands. Of course, the best days we had in class were when we could go up to the television and use one of it’s magnetic pens to solve a
problem or write an example for the whole class to see. It was way more fun than using those boring old whiteboards and overhead projectors, although it took way more time and effort to turn on the smart TV (a good solid five minutes) and then calibrating it (another two or three) than it would to use almost anything else. Still, I would argue that my level of interest and involvement in the classroom through using stateof-the-art technology helped me learn lessons and retain the information bet-
ter than a sitting in class, bored and uninterested. The Sumner School District is thinking along those same lines. If using technology can keep kids interested and focused in school, they’ll learn more, retain more, and be overall better students.
Increases in Learning & Productivity
One of the first things I noticed when I sat with Sandy Maynard, the chief technology officer in the Sumner School District, was the piles of laptop boxes stored in her office.
Other young adults may remember during their high school years there were only two or three laptop carts that would roll around the school, and it was up to teachers to plan way ahead of time to coordinate when they would need the computers. Maynard said that will no longer be a problem in the next three years, and the evidence was stacked right behind her. “In the state of Washington, we have the largest deployment of Chromebooks per student,” Maynard said. “We have just under 5,000

Kennedy and Olivia learn to work their classroom’s new Chromebook with their teacher, Mrs. Norbeck. Photo Courtesy of Sumner School District Chromebooks that are in the district.” According to Maynard, only third, fourth, fifth, sixth and ninth grade classes currently have access to an individual Chromebook in their classroom. But by 2017, all students from third grade through 12 grade will be using Chromebooks in their classrooms, Maynard said. The Chromebooks are a sleek product. Unlike traditional desktop computer or even mainstream laptops, which is preloaded with software programs, Chromebooks only run the Google Chrome web browser. The lack of desktop applications may seem counterintuitive when it comes to student education, but it does two things for students. First, the lack of software makes the Chromebooks highly usable in a classroom setting. “We have skimmed time off of classroom instruction because kids can get into stuff almost instantly,” Maynard said. “As fast as you can (log in), you are there. So the productivity is high.” The school district found that traditional desktops and laptops can take up to four minutes to log in and be ready for students use, according to Maynard. I recall my filmmaking class in high school and waiting for as long as 10 minutes for the clunky, obsolete desktops to get all set up for me to edit my projects. In contrast, the Chrome desktops are much quicker, speeding up the login pro-
cess up to two minutes or less, said Maynard. “That doesn’t sound like a lot, but if you have a 40 minute day with a student, those seconds kill you.” Second, the lack of permanent software means teachers are free to explore different ways to teach their lessons. As Maynard explained later in our talk, there are countless web programs and websites that teachers can use to individualize classroom learning. Not being chained to software may mean more work for teachers, as they would be responsible for finding information and developing new lessons, but the students can greatly benefit from learning outside the box.
Applying Teaching Applications
As technology becomes more and more common in the classroom, education apps for laptops, tablets and phones are becoming commonplace. Although Maynard said the Sumner School District doesn’t yet have an official list of apps for teachers to use, the Google Play Store already has a few dozen free apps for teachers to use in their classroom. One app is called Common Core. Common Core is a set of collection of academic standards for math and language arts used in Washington state. The Common Core app, developed by MasteryConnect, allows students, teachers and

CHURCH FROM 12 us to the next portion of Scripture, “be infants in evil.” When you think about an infant you think about innocence and purity. My good friend just had a son and I got to hold him while he was sleeping. What a cool experience. Just a few days old with his whole life ahead. God wants us, just as my friend’s son is innocent, to be innocent in our understanding of evil. However, we tend to think that we should have a healthy understanding of evil or sinful behavior so we can be more relevant. Paul doesn’t seem to think so. If we try and minister and connect from a place of sinful knowledge then we are not ministering from health but are ministering from a place of emotional and spiritual trauma. Let me give you an example. As a chaplain I listen to the firefighters and officers that I work with. From time to time we have scenes that are especially gruesome, perhaps a car accident or maybe a suicide. The guys will tell me, “Marcus, don’t look.” I trust them. It is not necessary for me to see what they see in order to be able to care for them. In fact, if I insist on seeing the gruesome sight I am as traumatized as they are and unable to care for them like I need to. This is why I think Paul ends this sentence with, “…in your thinking be mature.” Paul doesn’t want Christians to be demanding and childish in our thinking while greatly experienced in sin. He is asking us to be mature about the way we process life.

T
he City maintains 52 stormwater ponds encompassing 118 acres of land. The crew that maintains these ponds is also responsible for weed abatement, grass cutting, and tree trimming along 154 miles of Right of Way adjacent to City streets. The City hires a number of seasonal employees each summer to provide grounds maintenance of these facilities. As a result, depending on weather and other maintenance and operational demands placed on these crews, the grounds maintenance work at any one
stormwater pond site can only be accomplished two and possibly three times a year. This is aggravated by the rapid growth of grass (and weeds) that occurs in the spring and early summer. While the City would like to maintain all ROW and stormwater ponds at the same level of service we do in our parks, this is impractical. Homeowners, businesses, HOAs and other property owners are encouraged to help the City maintain these properties so the City will look the best it can.
Changes to Allan Yorke Park Boat Launch
T
he City of Bonney Lake plans to change the method of payment for use of the Allan Yorke Park boat launch. Fees will remain the same, but instead of paying to launch, boat users will instead pay to park. Residents living inside the Bonney Lake city limits can purchase an annual Resident Parking Pass and receive a sticker that can be placed in the rear window. Others may purchase a daily parking pass at the boat launch payment kiosk, as in previous years, and place the receipt on the front dashboard. The daily pass will still cost $17 plus sales tax. The resident seasonal pass will continue to be available for $30 plus tax at the Finance–Utilities desk at the Justice &
Municipal Center, 9002 Main St E, Suite 250, Bonney Lake. The non-resident season pass pilot program is no longer available. Those parking a boat trailer at Allan Yorke Park will need to display either a resident pass on the rear window or a daily pass on the front dashboard. Violators will be subject to a $41 fine plus court costs, similar to a parking ticket. For additional information, please visit www.citybonneylake.org and click the Boat Launch Updates link. This assumes Lake Tapps will have sufficient water to open the boat launch, which may not be the case based on current and projected lake levels.

TECH FROM 14 interested parents to view and understand the language arts and math standards set for kindergarten through 12th grade. Socrative Teacher is also a free app, designed to be able to quiz students quickly on a topic and give them and the teacher instant feedback on how the class is performing. Socrative Teacher is also able to ask open-
ended questions to which students can respond, and then vote on which answer is the most correct. All data from Socratic Teacher can be easily sent to a teacher’s Google Drive, which makes access to questions, quizzes and grading data easy.
Online education
Educational websites have come a long way since I was in school. I
remember getting ready for summer vacation and teachers passing out lists of kid and student-friendly websites that could help us stay sharp on what we learned doing the school year. Problem was, you couldn’t learn from the websites. If you didn’t get the concept in school, there was a slim chance the website would walk you through a lesson so you could learn it. But with advances in
Superior performance and all-day ability.

www.courierherald.com both education and technology, some educational websites have successfully taken off and are helping students, teachers and even parents across the world learn math, science and language arts. One website is IXl (www.ixl.com), which has materials for kindergarten through 12th graders in math and language arts. The website breaks down both subjects into digestible lessons that often start with a question, like asking about the domain and range of a graph is or where a comma should be placed in a sentence. If you don’t know the answer, don’t worry. The
website will walk you through why you got the question wrong, give additional examples of similar problems, and help you correct your answer. Once you feel comfortable with the concept, you move on to the next question. The website keeps track of how many questions you get right and how long it takes you to answer a strings of questions. Another website is Khan Academy (www. k h a n a c a d e my.or g ). Unlike IXL , K han Academy has topics ranging from math and language arts to science, economics and finance, arts and humanities, comput-
ing and test prep. The website will start users off with warmup questions to determine your starting level, so users aren’t bored by relearning fundamentals. After finishing up the warmups, the website will let users practice what they think they need assistance on, or continue practicing what they already know until those skills are mastered. Videos are available for each skill for those who don’t understand a question or topic. Just remember to keep a pen and paper handy for each website though – workspace isn’t included online.
BINETTI FROM 8
plants, which mean they live for just one summer but will bloom until the first hard frost, usually until October. Petunias are heat lovers and love full sun but will adapt to half-day of sun with fewer
blooms. Like most annuals, petunias need plenty of fertilizer to keep pumping out the f lowers and the soil should be kept just barely moist. Work some slow-release plant food into the soil at planting time and then feed every two to three weeks with a liquid plant food as well. If your petunias grow too long and leggy you can cut them back to just a few pairs of leaves and fertilize with a liquid plant food. In a couple of weeks they’ll be covered with more blooms on a more compact plant. In general, the bigger the bloom the larger the plant and the more space the petunia will need.

Second annual Scout Night at the Fire Department East Pierce Fire and Rescue invites all Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and Campfire members up to fifth grade to attend the second annual Scout Night event from 6-7:30 p.m. Friday, May 29 at our headquarters station in Bonney Lake, at 18421 Veterans Memorial Drive. The free event is intended for groups within East Pierce Fire & Rescue’s service area, including Bonney Lake, Sumner, Lake Tapps, Milton, Edgewood, South Prairie and unincorporated Buckley. “Each year, East Pierce f iref ighters facilitate numerous public education requests from scout groups trying to achieve certain badge requirements. In an effort to reach more scouts, we thought they deserved an event of their very own Scout Night,” said East Pierce Public Education Specia list Dina Sutherland. Scouts will rotate through various learning stations at this free event designed to address several badge requirements. Learning stations include: Home Safety: Identify
how to fix or prevent various home hazards; learn the importance of smoke alarms and when to call 911. Basic First Aid: Learn first aid basics such as how to cool a burn, treat cuts and a bloody nose, what to do if someone is choking, how to treat bee stings and identify signs of an allergic reaction. Home Escape Planning: Scouts will design a home escape plan identifying two ways out of every room, designate a meeting place, learn to crawl low under smoke and when and how to shelter in place. E m e r g e n c y Preparedness: Learn why it’s important to have an emergency plan, how to assemble an emergency kit and the importance of an out-of-area contact. Fi re f i g hter a nd Pa r a me d ic To ol s , Equipment and Careers: Get an up close look at the equipment firefighters use to stay safe and do their job and ask the firefighters why they chose their career. L aw Enforcement Equipment and Careers: Interested in being a police officer? Learn
about their job and the equipment they use every day. Ropes and Knots: Watch firefighters demonstrate various knot tying, then spend some time practicing the skill. 9-1-1: Practice making a 9-1-1 “call” on our interactive 9-1-1 call simulator. Learn what information the dispatcher needs to help you, and know when to call and not to call 9-1-1. Attendance is limited and advance registration is required. Scout leaders can call 253-863-1800 or email dsutherland@eastpiercefire.org with the unit number and number of scouts who plan to attend. Since parking is extremely limited, Sutherland suggests carpooling. Parking is available in the gravel lots behind the fire station and at the corner of Main Street and Veterans Memorial Drive East.
An area talent show is being put on by King County 4H performing arts. The show will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on Saturday, May 16 at the Enumclaw High School. The talent will be from the local kids in and around Enumclaw, Black Diamond, Auburn and Cumberland and Maple Valley area. The audience will play
the part as judges, casting their vote during intermission. Cash prizes will be awarded to the winners. This is a public event and everyone can attend. The first half of the show will be the contest and the second half we will have a performance from a wonderful lady of comedy, Susan Rice. Rice has been a comedian since 1983 and lives in
Portland, Oregon. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Enumclaw/Black Diamond Kiwanis Food Bank and to the KC Performing Arts Club-4H Fusion to purchase outfits for performances.

Two minds, one fate Lakeridge Middle School student Amelia Day’s short story “Two minds, one fate” placed third in Pierce County Library’s “Our Own Expressions” art and writing contest.
I
wake up to find myself shackled to the wall. I know why I’m here. Sometimes I feel as if I know too much. There are others out there like me, though for all I know they’re dead or worse, subjected to the laboratory testing. We all share a unique trait, we all have tried to keep it hidden, but we all knew that eventually we would be found out… like I am now. The common trait we share? We can all think with two, for lack of a better word, minds at the same time. There is no scientific name for our condition, because for all the public knows, we don’t exist. I can focus both of my minds on one thing, much like the average human can with their one mind, but that comes with a side effect, and not a bad one. I am able to use twice the brain power of one of my minds alone, and even one of the minds I keep in my head, is smarter than the average. Though I could have easily excelled in all of my classes, my parents warned me that I had to keep my intelligence to myself, so I wouldn’t end up in a bad situation…the exact one I’m in now. My mind has gone through countless scenarios in my head. All of my life I have feared
the moment I step into whatever painful, torture they have dreamed up, and now here I am. Hours, maybe minutes away to finding out what I have wondered and feared about for all of my childhood, finding out what will happen. In a strange way, I am intrigued at finally figuring out the question that has plagued me my entire life, the one question I have yet to solve, but I know that the relief at solving that puzzle would fall away soon. Soon I will know, soon I will find out, and soon I will suffer like I have never suffered before. I am frightened beyond belief, but I need to keep myself in the present. As I lay on the ground, I scan the room finding it desolate, clean, and without even one bit of furniture in the place, let alone a toilet. I reason that without the means of a toilet and the cleansed condition of the room, they will not leave me in here long enough to force me to use the floor as a lavatory. No, they will get me, and bring me somewhere. I don’t know where, but I’m sure that I will soon find out. The door creaks open slowly, and a young man walks through. With my eyes, I beg him to help, but he won’t meet my desperate gaze. “Follow me,” the man says in a deep baritone voice. I walk toward him slowly. Struggling will not help, only compliance. He leads me through the maze-like hallways.
I blink constantly as I stumble down the corridor. Whatever drug they gave me must have made me unsteady and the bright white lights they installed here are certainly not helping. Suddenly, he stops at another door, numbered 415 and I nearly run into him. He says nothing as he gestures towards the door, but I can see the not-quite-concealed concern on his face. Maybe he’s not entirely bought into the whole “researching” thing, but he says nothing, so I stay silent as well. I place my hand on the sleek metal doorknob and glance over at the guard for confirmation. Seeing him nod, I open the door shakily, more nervous than ever. I had only heard stories from my parents, only myths of what these rooms really held, but I’m not sure I would even want to know the instruments of my pain, the instruments that would deliver my torture. Peeking into the room, I see a single woman clad in all black and adorned with a shining necklace. She is sitting in a chair, and is studying the walls of the room, though they are bare, but for one metal door. I shudder. What could be beyond it, sleek, metal machines, shackled medical beds? I shake these thoughts out of my mind. Only focus on what you know, I remind myself in my head. I focus my minds back on the lady in the chair. I wouldn’t call this woman appealing, though I wouldn’t call her ugly. She has a sort of cold power about her, stiff straight features, and just looking at her makes me feel a sense of fear. As I come into the room step after shaky step, her snake-like eyes flit across my body, judging my every feature. “Abby, I’ve heard much about you,” she said slowly, calculating. I don’t know whether to thank her or demand what it was that she had heard, so I stayed silent. Rising from the chair (metal and white, as is seemingly everything in this place), she comes toward me. “I know you may be frightened, but don’t
worry.” she says, taking my hand. I felt a strange urge to trust her, though I knew it was just an act. “Where is ‘here’ exactly?” I say forcefully. “Here is where you need to be,” she responds back coldly, as a warning. I feel a chill pass across my back. Clearing her throat, she continues on her mantra. “You are a key part to our research facility, renowned for its study of newly discovered neuroscience, the study of others much like you.” “Like me in what way?” I defiantly retort, not thinking of the consequences it might bring. “I think you know that answer,” she said, before turning her back on me. Carefully, she pulls a gun out of her pocket. “I’m not afraid of using this,” she says, slowly, her gaze focused on the handgun. She absentmindedly starts to spin it around the fingers of her hand in a carefree way that frightens me even more. “No, we can get most of the information we need with you dead. Of course, having you alive would be much more valuable, though I’m not sure you’ll want to even be alive once we get started.” The curves of her mouth turn upward slightly at this, but soon drift back down into their normal position. Again my eyes dart to the door, number 416, but I quickly turn my attention back to her. I have the sense to ask no more questions, only follow this mysterious and deadly woman across the room to the numbered, white door that holds the answers to all of my current questions. “Your turn Abby,” she says menacingly, stepping away from the door, implying that I should go in. This was the moment I had feared. The moment of clarity, but yet, the moment of great sorrow. Taking a deep breath, I slowly grip the cool handle, open the dreaded door, and step into whatever awaits me.

CORNER FROM 6 sources are politically biased, and 80 percent said the news is often influenced by people and organizations with deep pockets. In short, these numbers make for a tough sell. Much of the public doesn’t trust the news industry, because they think our information isn’t accurate, it’s forwarding a political agenda or it’s censored and controlled. I wish I could say the public’s doubt in the news industry isn’t well founded, but as a news consumer myself, I feel the same confusion and distrust many other people feel towards the industry. Every time a
journalist makes up sources for a story or a news anchor is caught lying on TV, the entire industry’s credibility takes a hit. But even though the industry is up against the ropes, there is still time to come back. All we need to do is earn back that public trust. Think about other public services we rely on; doctors, teachers, police officers. Besides working for the public good, they have one other thing in common. They’re accredited. Vouched for. Licensed. They’ve gone through rigorous study and testing to ensure they have the knowledge and skills necessary for serving the public.
www.courierherald.com
(By the way, nurses, pharmacists, teachers and doctors top that Gallup list of most trusted professions. Coincidence?) If the news industry is going to come back from this public relations nightmare, then we’ve got to earn that same level of credibility. It should take more than a bachelors degree in liberal arts, a laminated press pass and a by-line to be a journalist. The industry needs to come together and create an independent, apolitical organization to oversee the development and accreditation of a new generation of educated, ethical and honest journalists. Accrediting journalists would change the news

industry in several ways. First, a national organization can lead a coordinated effort to educate prospective journalists on media law, First Amendment rights and reporting ethics. Passing an accreditation exam would be similar to a lawyer passing the bar exam, or a doctor’s medical exams. It’s a way to keep track of journalists who have taken the time and effort to educate themselves on the everchanging news world. As more journalists become accredited, we will see a shift in the industry’s attitude towards news, replacing the notion that news should be reported first and fact-checked later with the belief that the news should be more accurate than fast, and more honest than political.
The American public is tired of rapid-fire news reporting, where facts are shot out of a cannon at readers and viewers without context or a knowledge base. They want accurate and honest reporting, even if that means getting their news a little slower. Unfortunately, the heads of the news industry have gone in the opposite direction. In an attempt to staunch the slow but deadly bleeding of the industry, many reporters and journalists have lost their jobs so newspapers and TV stations can stay financially afloat. This only makes it harder for remaining journalists to gather and report accurate information. Some newspapers and news stations may be in the financial black, but
if responsibility could be recorded in a ledger, we’d be deep in the red. The news industry shouldn’t be treated like a business, and the bottom line shouldn’t be about money. It should be about trust, ethics and honesty. Those are the ideas the public wants the news industry to adhere to. If we as journalists hold ourselves to that standard on a national level, and find a way to make us more accountable and trustworthy, the public will start believing in the fourth estate again.
Thank You

Angels have greatly supported community center The Black Diamond Community Center had visits from angels throughout December and many businesses and organizations earned their wings and more. The Black Diamond Antique Store presented our center with two large water bottles full of change. The value was over $2,000. Owner Brenda Evenson and her staff had been asking customers to put their change into the jars since last December. A new food warmer for our kitchen will be bought with that money and dedicated to all customers of the Antique Store. Brenda, who came up with the idea, continues to support us. The Lake Sawyer Christian Church continues to support our center. Youth coordinator Jen Clintworth with the American Heritage Girls Troup 4673 and ACTS North Co-op presented us with hundreds of hats, gloves and socks for our

LETTERS FROM 6 Disappointed with city’s business decision If you are a business owner in Enumclaw and a vendor for the city of Enumclaw and its current mayor, for over 30 years, to find out (after the fact) that you are summarily dismissed without notice – how would you feel? If you are a resident who has enjoyed the flower baskets created by GE&B Nursery adorning our city streets during the summer months, you need to know
THANK YOU FROM 22 Snohomish Counties and the Maple Valley Black Diamond Chamber of Commerce, shopped and shopped for families from our area. The ASA provided funds for bicycles, toys, books, everything on the “Share the Joy� application lists. Kevin and Mona Marks, owners of Interstate Batteries distribution centers, also provided funds for
Wednesday, May 13, 2015 • THE COURIER-HERALD • Page 23 that those baskets will now be supplied by a Sumner vendor. Here are the facts behind this (lack of a better word) “firingâ€? – without verbal and/or written notice – of a business celebrating its 50th anniversary in Enumclaw and going outside of 98022 – so much for 98022 Shop Local. • A pattern was established over the years, a good faith understanding as the city never formally put it in writing, to ensure the baskets were on schedule and up by May 22nd each year. GE&B ordered and received all the flowers for 70 plus baskets. GE&B also stored free of charge the city’s baskets since the
80s. • Ellen Fant Horton, owner, received one phone call from a city employee at the beginning of March. This was a very informal conversation wherein he asked about the possibility of some additional baskets, informed Ellen Horton that the mayor and city were not happy with last year’s baskets, maybe changing to mixed petunia baskets like Buckley. This was the extent of the conversation. • Ellen told the city, as an example, the price of additional larger wooden baskets would be higher, maybe $95 plus. For your information, the usual sized baskets were $65. It was never conveyed that
the city was unhappy in 2014. Ellen commented that up to 2014, during higher temperatures, the baskets were watered twice daily wherein last year only once. • GE&B never heard from the city again, not a word. This informal discussion never turned in to a detailed request for additional options as to type of basket, size, content and pricing. Ellen never received a request for bid verbally or by quote form. • GE&B then heard a rumor that a Sumner business had the order. Now Ellen is stuck with all those extra flowers and continues to store the city’s baskets. • Here is the kicker, the Sumner business was given
the order on Feb. 27, days before GE&B received the one and only call from the city. Thirty-four Enumclaw citizens wrote an email to the mayor expressing their disappointment and dismay as to the events explained above. The mayor’s reply email on April 28th does not coincide with the substantiated facts stated above. You might say my relationship with Ellen Fant Horton, husband Gary and son Ridge is somewhat emotional. We went through school together, our families come from Krain and that is where she chose to open and maintain her business. It is her
roots and her livelihood. However, from a business standpoint I am dismayed at the mayor’s decision. Here is a well-established business of 50 years which has and continues to pay taxes, support schools, donate generously to charitable pursuits. Don’t we want to utilize and support those types of businesses within 98022? Please show GE&B your support now, stop by and wish them a happy 50th and maybe purchase some of those extra flowers they have on hand. Thanks to no fault of their own.
this program. Through our partnership with these giving groups, Greg’s Japanese Auto business jumped in and provided food, toys, gift cards for two more families in need. Twenty $20 gift cards were also given to the Center to use for gas vouchers and dairy products for parents with children, in partnership with Cenex in Black Diamond. Thousands of dollars were donated from these groups. Local resident Craig Goodwin, along with
friends and supporters of his wonderful photography, donated over $1,500 to the center when buying his calendars and pictures. So look up when you are around our center, angels are flying high over us. Way to go angels, we couldn’t do what we do without our angels. Thank you for your support.

Cemetery gets student help When students in the Enumclaw High School drama department prepared to stage “The Addams Family,” the idea came about to make an excursion to the local cemetery to clean headstones and grave markers. So, on April 14, the EHS crew descended on Evergreen Memorial Park and performed their scrubbing chores until nearly dark. Pictured above are, from left, Sam Bartlett, Nick Barnet and Gracie Evans; at left is Barney Williams. The theater department has a history of community service, each year raising money and donating time to two charities: the Jennifer Beach Foundation and its campaign against domestic violence and the Auburn Valley Humane Society and its campaign for animal adoption.
