Mount Rainier, avatar of beauty and destruction By Ray Still
I
t only took seconds to bring about one of Washington’s largest ecological disaster and the world’s largest recorded landslide. On May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens’ summit washed out in an enormous landslide, causing a large explosion that threw volcanic rock, ash and gas into the air. Magma poured out of the volcano’s depths and was soon joined by avalanches of hot ash, pumice and volcanic gas, forming a pyroclastic flow that spread at speeds up to 80 miles per hour down the mountain. More dangerous still were the lahars, melted glacier water mixed with mud and rocks. The largest lahar traveled down from the
volcano into the Cowlitz River, reaching its largest size 50 miles downstream from where it started, bringing indiscriminate destruction to everything in its path. An estimated 520 million tons of ash choked the sky, bringing darkness to towns and cities more than 250 miles away from the volcano.
Mount Rainier and other Cascade volcanoes
“Each of the Cascade volcanoes have a little different personality,” said Carolyn Driedger, hydrologist and outreach coordinator with the United States Geological Survey (USGS). “Mount St. Helens is one of the most explosive volcanoes in the Cascade range.” In short, Mount St. Helens has

the ability to blast magma apart into billions of tiny pieces and make a big ash plume, Driedger said. Mount St. Helens’ ash plume covered 22,000 square miles of terrain in the U.S., and parts of the plume traveled around the world in just three days, according to the USGS. “The other volcanoes are not as explosive. Mount Rainier is one of those volcanoes,” Driedger said. “It has less explosions of volcanic ash into the atmosphere and slightly more fluid, gas-rich magma, which means it flows out of the volcano as a lava flow as opposed to being blasted into the atmosphere.” Less explosions and ash sound like a blessing, but Mount Rainier
Although the eruption happened 35 years ago last week, Mount St. Helens remains high on the United States Geological Survey’s potential threat list. However, eyes have turned to Pierce and South King County’s beautiful backdrop, Mount Rainier, which has taken its place as Washington’s, and even the nation’s, most dangerous volcano.

where you made the difference and somebody came home from the hospital because of what you did, and that kind of job satisfaction is pretty rare, I think. And once you get a taste of it, you just want to keep doing it.” While volunteering in West Richland, he was also working at the Hanford nuclear site, splitting his time between mechanical engineering and installing fire protection systems while learning how to be a firefighter. When things started slowing down at the job site and layoffs were looming, Backer decided to take the plunge and start looking for a fulltime firefighting position. Backer got hired by Duvall in 1988, and he worked his way up the ranks until he was the fire chief for his last two years there. “From there, in 2000, I moved to Woodinville. I was the deputy chief of operations,” Backer said. “The reason I did that was I was looking for experience with a larger department, so I did that and I was there until the end of 2009. I served as interim chief on two occasions when there were changes at the top.” After Woodinville, Backer went to Eastside Fire and Rescue as a battalion chief for the first year there, and then as deputy chief the year after.
Biggest challenges
Backer said the biggest challenge he will be facing as East
Pierce’s fire chief will be the financial issues looming over department after losing both operations and maintenance levies in the 2014 primary and general elections. Losing both the levies cut East Pierce’s budget by more than $3 million, forcing the department to cut back on community programs and even discuss fire fighter layoffs. “I don’t want to be vain enough to think I’m coming in with the actual answers,” Backer said. “But I think I’m coming in with the right questions to ask.” Backer said his plan is to look at the East Pierce budget and try to find ways to cinch the belt a little tighter around the department’s waist. “At Eastside, we’ve gone through some budget cutbacks, but a lot of those had to do with not shrinking revenues but reallocating where the funds went and being more efficient with how we spent the money. That’s what I am thinking here,” he said. “We can look at programs that cost a lot of money to run – are some of those programs where we can cinch up our belts a little bit?” However, Backer said the department’s strength is in its community programs, which he plans to keep healthy through examining the budget. “I think we need to keep as many (community programs) as strong as we can. That is where we touch a lot of the public and
make critical contact with folks,” said Backer. “A lot of those are delivering prevention messages, and of course, the more you can prevent, the less likely we have to go on that emergency run.”
Leadership style
Before East Pierce began looking for a fire chief in March, the department saw Deputy Chief John McDonald, East Pierce Commissioner Rick Kuss and Fire Chief Jerry Thorson announce their retirements. With three senior staff members having left the department, Backer said this will impact the district, but it is also an opportunity for the department to examine its overall structure. “What I hope to do is take a look at the folks that are still here, see what their skill sets are and how much they can do, and transfer some of that functionality and make do with the folks that we have,” Backer said. “I want to give them the shot to fill some of those gaps, and I think we need to look at our overall structure. Is what we were doing before the right way to use our people? Or is there a better way to do that?” As chief, Backer will be balancing the needs and wants of the fire fighters, the fire commissioners and the Local Union 3520. “I’m collaborative and I like to include people in my decisionmaking process, but in doing that, I don’t take a long time to make decisions,” Backer said. “I
Tom Krueger hands 2-year-old Camden Fontana a American Veteran poppy commemorating veterans outside the Enumclaw QFC. Poppy Photo by Ray Still like to get the decision made and get to work on something, and if we have to tweak it, tweak it. I try not to get mired down in the process and planning portions. I want to get things done.” Backer described himself more as a hands-off sort of leader, and definitely not a micromanager. “Micromanaging, for one, takes a lot of time away from what the fire chief should be doing. So I make assignments and let people run with them, and then touch base every once in a while to make sure they are not stringing off someplace they shouldn’t go,” he said. “But I recognize there is always more than one way to do things, and just because I would have done some-
thing one way doesn’t mean the person you assigned it to is doing it wrong. They’re just doing it a different way.” Trust, Backer said, is extremely important, whether it’s between the public and the fire department or between the facets of the department itself. To Backer, trust means giving fire fighter and emergency medical personnel the space and power they need to advance themselves in their career and further the department. “If you don’t trust your people and give them the reign to do that, they’re not going to learn and they’re not going to be advance the organization when they’re done,” Backer said.

Hornets on both sides of river district champs Dennis Box Editor
Enumclaw
The Enumclaw High fastpitch team has given the sports world a new adage: The game isn’t over until the last Hornet swings. After the 3A district championship game a few old ones can be thrown in the mix like: What the heck just happened? Do you believe in miracles? And from Vince Lombardi, “It’s easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you’re a winner… What you got to have is faith and discipline when you’re not a winner.” The Hornets were on the verge of not being a winner and losing the 3A district crown it has held for the past two years. With the girls staring at a 2-0 deficit against the Kelso Hilanders in the bottom of
Tammy Wilkening lifts Chloe Young after she scored the winning run. Photo by Dennis Box the seventh, the Hornets pulled a 3-2 win out of the hat for its third consecutive 3A district crown Saturday at Sprinker Fields. The score tells only the beginning of the wild ending. The game was scoreless through five innings with neither team able to capital-
ize on the few hits given up by the respective pitchers. In the top of the fifth, Enumclaw junior pitcher Quinn Breidenbach, one of the top hurlers in the state, walked a batter. Kady Bruce, the pitcher for Kelso, came up and Breidenbach hung a curve to her. Bruce stroked it over the center field fence to give Kelso a 2-0 lead. In the bottom of the sixth the Hornets had runners on second and third but couldn’t bring them in. In the bottom of the seventh Kelso was three outs away from ending the Hornets’ district dominance. Freshman Hailey Roberts came to the plate and battled Bruce to a full count on about 15 pitches before hitting the ball to shallow center for a single. Next senior Tammy Wilkening bunted a fastball in the air along the first base line and the Kelso girl playing third ran into the ball as
it appeared to be going foul. Wilkening made it to first safely and Roberts was on second. Senior shortstop Chloe Young dug in and pulled a ball to right field and that was when the fun began. Roberts rounded third and slide into home. She would have been out, but the Kelso catcher, Nariah Morgan, dropped the ball. “I thought I was going to be out until I jumped up and saw she dropped the ball,” Roberts said. That was the first score. Wilkening drove for home next. The catcher had chased the dropped ball to the backstop and tossed it to Bruce who was covering home. “I had a lot of adrenaline going,” Wilkening said. “When I went in I saw she had the ball and I punched it with my left hand and knocked it out.” That was the second run.

The Hornets’ star pitcher Kayla Smith, who will be playing at Central Washington University next year, threw a nearly flawless seven innings. “We felt confident and we are a really close team,” Smith said. Coach Brandon Walker said the team, “Really came together this year.” Walker said after the team beat Enumclaw 4-2 in the last game of the season the girls have, “had a fire in their game.” Walker said along with Smith’s pitching, the Hornets hit well during the

EHS, Bonney Lake and White River golfers at state tournaments By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
Qualifying golfers from throughout the South Puget Sound League, both the 3A and 2A divisions, are teeing off this week in their respective state tournaments. The state qualifier for both Class 3A and 2A golfers was staged May 19 at the Gold Mountain complex in Bremerton. It provided certain players an opportunity to join those who had qualified for the state tournament during the fall’s regular season. ENUMCLAW Enumclaw High will be represented by a strong contingent of 10 golfers when the Class 3A state tournaments tee off in the Tri-Cities. The Class 3A boys will be playing the Canyon Lakes course in Kennewick while the 3A girls compete at the Horn Rapids course
in Richland. On the boys side, Josh Erickson, Jared Beals and Dylan Miller had earned their state berths last fall. During the May 19 qualifier at Gold Mountain, two more Hornet boys – Carson Erwin and Kidder McKee – punched their Tri-Cities tickets. The story was much the same on the girls side, where the trio of Faith Hardersen, Kelsey Cunningham and Lexi Dechon had qualified for state during the fall’s regular season. Gaining state entry through the May 19 qualifier were Meagan Johnson and Kayleen Anderson. Also competing in the spring qualifier for the EHS boys were Andrew Littman, Matt Hodgman, Caleb Coulter and Bill Miller. Also participating in the qualifier for the girls were Riley McCann and Kristin Podolak.
Tournaments TENNIS The Enumclaw tennis doubles team of Mariah Bone and Kylie Rademacher took fourth at the 3A district tournament Saturday at Sprinker Recreation Center. The girls played two solid matches Saturday losing to Auburn Mountainview’s Sierra Silva and Leann Harris 6-4, 3-6, 6-1. In the quarterfinal match Saturday the team lost to Lindsey Sanborn and Carson

Heilborn from Auburn Riverside 6-3, 4-6, 7-5. Bone and Rademacher opened the tournament with a dominating win over Kiara Budge and Lauren Dagle from Shelton, 6-0, 6-0. The girls followed that victory up with a 6-3, 6-2 win over Jayne Piboonvaranggoon
and Kelsea Ostlund from Columbia River. The Hornet duo will travel to Kennewick to compete in the 3A state tennis championship beginning Friday.
TRACK Bonney Lake, Sumner and Enumclaw track teams
WHITE RIVER White River will be sending nine golfers to the Spokane area for the 2A state tournament. Girls will play the MeadowWood course while the boys compete at Liberty Lake Golf Course; both are operated by Spokane County and sit near the Idaho border. Representing the White River girls team at state will be Maci Goethals, Sydnee Scott, Georgia Lavinder, Sofia Lavinder and Jordanne Fray. The first four had earned their state trip in October at the conclusion of the regular season; Fray nabbed a state slot during the May 19 spring qualifier at the Gold Mountain Cascade Course in Bremerton. Two other White River girls – Amanda Lance and Dani Barbee – had earned a spot
competed at the 3A district meet Friday and Saturday at Sunset Chev Stadium. On the girls side the Hornets and Sumner tied for fourth with 62 points. The Panthers took 15th with 14. Bonney Lake was third on the boys side with 49. Sumner was fifth with 45. Enumclaw was 20th with 9.5. In the 2A meet at North Mason the White River boys were 16th with 13 points.

Washington schools are illegally financed
The way Washington pays for public schools is illegal. But there’s no simple fix, and school leaders worry that state lawmakers are considering potential remedies that might not be better and, in some cases, could be worse. Democratic and Republican lawmakers must meet a deadline to figure it out or face the wrath of the state Supreme Court. Back in 2012, the court ruled in the McCleary case that the state is in violation of the constitution for not amply funding the public school system. It gave them until the 2017-18 school year Jerry Cornfield to set things right. Columnist Last year, justices found lawmakers in contempt for not producing a plan to meet the deadline. They delayed sanctions to give lawmakers another year to write one. Legislators are on track to provide the additional money required by McCleary to cover such things as materials, supplies, operating costs, buses and all-day kindergarten. Now comes the hard part. They must unravel a half-century of legislative decisions on which the financing of public schools has built — illegally, it turns out. Those decisions led districts to become too dependent on local tax levies to make up for the lack of state dollars to run schools and pay teachers. Fixing this isn’t as easy as passing a couple of laws and calling it good. Consider the players involved and the dynamics of the political conversation. There’s the Legislature. Its 147 members are hurtling toward a second special session due to disagreements over a new state budget, and now they’re under pressure to agree on a complete makeover of the rules for school financing and teacher salaries. And there are the school districts. These are essentially 295 independently owned and operated enterprises. Each has different management teams, supported by different investors (taxpayers), and their workforce is mostly unionized. Multiple approaches are getting floated as part of a potential grand bargain among lawmakers. There’s an idea of a levy swap. This would raise the state’s property tax rate and lower districts’ property tax levies. This is envisioned as a dollar-for-dollar trade. Another idea would create a capital-gains tax on Washington’s wealthiest 7,500 residents to generate a pot of money that could displace some of those local levy dollars. Complicating matters is an absence of trust in lawmakers to deliver on pledges they make. Not only are there doubts among the education establishment, many lawmakers worry about breaking promises and winding up in front of the Supreme Court again.

is deceptively dangerous because of the massive amounts of snow and ice on the volcano. “We used ice radar on various volcanoes, and we found that Mount Rainier contains as much glacier ice and snow that remains from year to year as all the other Cascade volcanoes combined,” said Driedger. “It’s about an equal amount.” That means the snow and
ice on Mount Rainier is about equal to all the snow on Mount Baker, Glacier Peak, Mount St. Helen, Mount Adams, Mount Hood, Mount Shasta and Mount Jefferson combined. For the most part, Driedger explained, this is an excellent thing for the people living near the volcano. We use the water as a natural resource and for electricity, and small snow melts help the ecosystem, especially salmon, stay fresh, she said. But when Mount Rainier erupts, the snow and ice that
bring fortune to the valleys below will suddenly bring destruction. “While Mount Rainier is much less explosive, there is potential for melting of ice and making lahars, these volcanic mud flows that travel down the valleys at great distances from the volcano,” said Driedger.
What is a lahar?
“It’s a slurry of boulders and mud and water and trees and whatever else gets in the way,” Driedger described. “It
looks like fresh-flowing concrete.” While the speed of a lahar is determined by the debris it picks up, the slope of the mountain and how confined it is in a valley, Driedger said, it is not uncommon for lahars to reach 20, 30 or even 40 miles per hour. According to the USGS, the lahar from the 1980 Mount St. Helens’ eruption damaged or destroyed 27 bridges and nearly 200 homes. It also reduced the channel depth of the Columbia River from 40 feet to 14 feet (stranding 31 ships along the way) and reduced the carrying capacity of the Cowlitz River at flood stage at Castle Rock from 76,000 cubic feet of water per second to less than 15,000 cubic feet of water per second.
A history of lahars
While the USGS describes Mount Rainier currently being at rest between eruptions, there is a recorded history of both game changing eruption-caused lahars and non-eruption-caused lahars in the nearby valleys. One of the largest lahars happened when the volcano erupted almost six millennia ago. “5,600 years ago, we had a massive landslide and lahar on Mount Rainier,” said Driedger. “It was something similar that happened on Mount St. Helens, except no lateral blast.” When the mountain erupted, the White River Valley within what is now known as the Mount Rainier

When it reached the mountain front, it spread out and lost its force, and the water separated from the debris,”
“The debris was left behind to create the plain where Enumclaw and Buckley and parts of Bonney Lake exist today.” Carolyn Driedger United States Geological Society
Driedger said. “The debris was left behind to create the plain where Enumclaw and Buckley and parts of Bonney Lake exist today.” Driedger explained the land used to be more hilly before the lahar. “But now, you go out your door or look at your window and it’s as flat as a pancake,” she said. “You’re looking at the surface of the Osceola Mudflow.” Driedger said this was a serious event for the area, changing not just the topography but water drainage as well. She said the lahar completely rearranged the White River. Unfortunately, the Osceola
Mudflow was not an isolated event. In the early 1500s, a massive lahar called the Electron Mudflow ripped its way through the Puyallup River Valley, according to Driedger. Unlike the Osceola Mudflow, the Electron Mudflow was most likely not caused by an eruption, Driedger said. “There were multiple lahars from that time period,” Driedger said. “Some of the sands from those lahars went down to the port of Seattle.” The lahar didn’t reach the Sound, but Driedger said that sediment is a lasting legacy. “Sediment continues to move downstream, and can move downstream for decades, centuries, millennia,” she said. “What we are seeing in the Port of Seattle, the sands, it’s runoff from what happened a long time after those lahars happened.”
Present danger
While there is no time table for volcanic activity around Mount Rainier, Driedger said the USGS has been working to predict when a lahar could happen and which direction it would take. Simply put, their best guess is west. “Mount Rainier has an additional issue that it has been subjected to many reheatings through time,” Driedger said. “These reheatings means a lot of hot water mixed with sulfur gases in relatively acidic ground water in Mount Rainier. That hot

Goal is to make it painless to leave the house Our busy lives often require companion animals to spend long hours at home alone. Some pets handle this separation well, while others experience increased stress. How we prepare, or don’t prepare, our pets for our departure will have a huge impact on our pet’s experience.

Is whining and crying (from you or your dog), part of your departure ritual? Do you negotiate over coffee? Does, “I’ll give you a treat if you don’t eat my couch while I’m gone!” or “Mommy’s got to go to work so I can buy your toys!” sound familiar? If so, your pre-leaving attention may be contributing to your pet’s stress. Leaving the house without your pet should be done without an elaborate goodbye, but being calm is a skill you need to teach your pet before it’s time to go. It is helpful to have a specific place – like a dog bed, rug or a crate with an open door – that they can associate with a relaxed state of mind. Have your dog lay down on the calm bed while you are home and relaxed yourself (you have to have calm energy to create it). The more he practices being calm in your presence, the easier it will be for him to be calm

without you. Have him stay there when you leave the room, maybe with chew toys or activity balls. If he gets up, calmly direct him back and tell him to wait. He will soon learn to not to react to your coming and going. Many dogs start to get anxious from “pre-leaving” behaviors, like picking up keys. Be aware of your dog’s triggers and work to desensitize him while he is in a calm state. Pick up keys and open garage doors without going anywhere and keep your dog on his calm bed. When it is time to leave, just go. The message you’re trying to convey is that leaving is not a big deal, not worthy of a farewell. Resist the temptation to sneak out when your pet isn’t paying attention as this can actually increase anxiety. A dog with pent up physical energy is likely to have that manifest as anxiety, so draining energy is an important part of reducing anxiety for most dogs. A brisk walk or a game of fetch before work can help immensely. Rescue Remedy is a flower essence that can be helpful in reducing anxiety in pets. Toys, puzzle balls and chew toys help some dogs

A dog with separation anxiety should be greeted with no fanfare. Walk in and do what you normally do, and never give attention to an anxious excited dog.

pounds. As I doorbelled, I got an earful of anger with the city government. Elections seem to allow people to vent their rage with government through the incumbents who campaign. That dissatisfaction potentially centered on a candidate probably keeps a lot of people from signing up for government office. It also takes money and support for local, small-town races. Most of the campaign costs come directly out of the pockets of the contenders. The pay for Enumclaw City Council, for instance, is $3,900 a year. The difficulty of raising money in nonpartisan races undoubtedly keeps some from throwing their hat into the ring. Being a member of a political party gives a potential

gling with decisions that will have such a big, long-term influence on the community or district. Becoming an elected is not for sissies. Most incumbents who run fear losing more than they expect to win. Losing is humiliating. Yes, there are a lot of reasons not to run for political office, but sustaining our democracy requires that kind of sacrifice.
PENNY WICKHAM Penny Wickham, an eight-year resident of this area, died May 11, 2015. She was 69. She was born in Tacoma, was retired, and was a member of Valley Baptist Church in Sumner. She is survived by son Paul Aylsworth; daughter Sherry Smith and husband Dayton; brother Charles Capponi; and two grandchildren.

Roger Joseph Cormier Sr., 73, died May 14, 2015, in El Paso, Texas. He was born to the late Alcide and Mary Emelda (Gauzin) Cormier on June 10, 1941, in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. He served as a Seabee in the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam War.

candidate not only funds, but also people who will pound signs into the ground and ring doorbells. In nonpartisan races, like city council or fire commissioner, that option is more limited, deterring some from running. Another reason people don’t run for office is because conflict is part of the job description. Few people enjoy unpleasantness and many would rather avoid it if possible. Being in elected office does give a big emotional rush. It also gave me nights when I woke up at 2 in the morning thinking about the decisions I made and the words I had publically spoken. Being an elected politician is often not good for a restful night’s sleep. High stress probably keeps some from running. Running for political office is tough, but it’s actually a lot tougher to be in office, strug-

dried, these herbs lose their flavor. Many of the other common herbs like basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, sage and tarragon are easy to grow in a sunny spot and simple to dry and enjoy all winter. Harvest just before the plant begins to bloom for the most flavor. Midmorning – after the dew has dried but before the sun is hot – is the perfect time to cut the tops off your herb plants and either place them in a food dehydrator or hang them from a line in a dark, dry and warm attic. Old window screens are great for drying herbs as well. Just lay the cut herbs on top of the window screens in a warm, dry spot and make sure the area has good air circulation. Strip the dried leaves from the plants when they are very dry to the touch and store in air-tight bottles. You’ll be on

The end of May is a good time to add herbs to the landscape and enjoy these fragrant, tasteful and useful plants as part of a low-water use landscape or edible garden. Local garden writer Sue Goetz has written a book, “The Herb Lover’s Spa Book” that highlights some of the best herbs to use in relaxing scrubs, facial rinses, bath water soaks and to create a garden sanctuary. This richly-photographed book includes easy recipes for making a scalp tingle mint shampoo, an on-the-go face scrub with rose petals, lavender and calendula and many more herbal delights. Many of the most popular herbs like lavender, oregano and thyme are originally from Mediterranean countries with long, hot summers. This makes them great landscaping plants for rocky soil and sunny areas you don’t
want to water. One of the best things about growing lavender is that it will look its best if you never water it at all. Rainfall alone is enough to keep lavender producing blooms and fragrant foliage in Western Washington. Here are the most asked herb-growing questions: Are there any herbs I can grow in the shade? Yes! Ignore the sunloving basil and thyme and if you have partial shade enjoy parsley, fennel, lemon balm and sweet cicely. In full shade I can think of only two herbs that will thrive: many of the mints, including my personal favorite Chocolate Mint, and the woodland groundcover sweet woodruff. Can all herbs be dried and used in the winter? You can hang any herb plant upside down and dry the foliage but some retain their flavor and scent better than others. Use parsley, chives and coriander fresh when cooking as, once

of basil but they all demand warm soil and warm nights so don’t leave them outdoors if the night temps will fall below 50 degrees. Basil also needs good air circulation in our climate to prevent the dreaded basil wilt disease. One of the most important tips is to pinch off all basil flowers as soon as the buds form. Once a basil plant blooms it will lose flavor and energy and take the rest of the summer off.

ebration of all things golf,” according to Sumner’s website will be happening in downtown. There will a number of different booths. And to wrap up the two day golf-inspired event, at 3 p.m. Sunday, a parade will march its way downtown celebrating the heri-
tage of golf. According to Sumner’s website, all proceeds from the Open in Sumner will go toward the Friends of American Lake Veterans Golf Course. This veterans golf course is the only one in the country that is designed for disabled veterans.
FAIR FROM 12
Among the other new attractions, Gray added, is a zip line that starts at 30 feet off the ground and runs 250 feet in length. As part of a return to its rural roots, the King County Fair has reached out to the agricultural community, particularly youth. Gray said there should be plenty of livestock provided by local FFA and 4-H kids. New this year will be a petting zoo operated by members of the Enumclaw High FFA, plus antique tractors and a hydroplane display. This year’s fair will
span four days, July 16-19. General admission will be $7 at the gate, but $5 tickets will be sold in advance at 20 area Safeway stores. On the fair’s opening day, students from 6 to 18 years old will be admitted free when an adult buys a ticket (limit of two). Children younger than 5 will always be admitted free. Parking will cost $5.
the situation is improved from not too many years ago when the fair was on its death bed. Gray said the number of food vendors has grown to more than a dozen, up from just three a year ago. The number of commercial vendors filling the Exhibition Hall and outdoor spaces has increased as well, he Gray said. And, for the first time, there will be two beer gardens on the grounds.

Gospel of John reveals true identity of Jesus Elvis, Princess Diana or Mother Teresa. It would have to be Jesus Christ! I don’t even care to hear other opinions. Jesus wins. It seems everyone on the planet has an opinion about Jesus. Whether you believe him to be a myth or the truth, a man or deity, a prophet or a lunatic, who you believe Jesus to be is the most important question you can search out during your time on this planet. So who is Jesus? Jesus is the Christ. He is the fulfillment of the entire
Church Corner Heath Rainwater Grace Point NW Church
Bible. He is God’s love. He is the savior of the world. He is our friend. He is grace. He is the worthy lamb. He is the alpha and omega. He is the answer to our deepest needs. He is the bright and morning star. Jesus is truth. He is the only way to the father. Ladies and gentleman,
Jesus is God! Jesus is God. He not only claimed to be God, he proved it by rising from the dead after suffering a horrible death on the cross and laying in a tomb for three days. The identity of Jesus is just as controversial today as it was 2,000 years ago. The Gospel of John in my opinion does the best job of not only recording the history of Jesus, but revealing the identity of Jesus as well. • In John 1:1, John proclaims that Jesus has been here since the beginning and that he is God.
• In John 8:58-59, Jesus describes himself as “I Am” to a group of Jews who wanted to stone him because this was the name of God. • In John 10:29-33, Jesus says that he and the father are one and the Jews once again tried to stone him because they said he claimed to be God. John 8:24, Jesus said something remarkable. He said, “…unless you believe that I Am, you will die in your sins.” Wow! Some people spend their whole lives trying to discover why a certain bird returns to the same cliff every year. Or what the
ultimate brewing process is for a wheat beer. While all the while God is doing everything he can do to reveal the identity of who Jesus is to you. When the

My wife watches, and makes me watch with her, a reality TV show called “The Bachelorette.” Only because I’m such a good husband do I suffer through all of the drama and rose ceremonies season after season – but this season I am vetoing the whole thing. The reason is simple: it shouldn’t even be debatable…Britt should’ve be The Bachelorette, not Kaitlyn. What were those guys thinking? All the more it should be without debate, that if you could meet and hang out with anyone in the world past or present it wouldn’t be Chevy Chase,

acidic ground water cooks the rocks in some areas, not the entire volcano, but in an east-west trending fracture zone.” Driedger explained when the rocks are cooked over years and years, they become less stable and eventually transform into clay. “It’s not a solid rock. Not a stable rock,” she said. “So there are some areas of the volcano that are weakened.” Until the Osceola Mudflow, the USGS predicted this weakened rock structure stretched from the east side of the volcano to the west. However, the Osceola Mudflow took with it all the weakened clay rock from the east side when the lahar went down the volcano, effectively making the east side more stable. “We do not expect another Osceola-sized mudflow in any way to come down the White River Valley,” Driedger said. Even if there was a lahar to come down through the White River Valley, Driedger
said, the Mud Mountain Dam will help protect Enumclaw and Buckley in part or in full. Although one of the original purposes of the dam was flood retention, it will hold back lahar mud and debris just as securely, she said. While the east side of the volcano seems secure, the west side still holds many risks. The clay-rock mixture that was removed on the East side of the volcano remains on the west side, right above the Puyallup and Carbon River Valleys. Fortunately for Carbonado, Mount Rainier has little to no history of lahars coming down the Carbon River, said Driedger. This means that the Puyallup River Valley, and ultimately the city of Orting, lies in the most probable path of a lahar. “On the west side, not only do we have a lot of hydrothermally altered rock, we also have out greatest population base of any valley that is adjacent to Mount Rainier,” Driedger said. “We have the most people living in the Puyallup River Valley.”

Managing the risk
“There is a direct line from Mount St. Helens in 1980… to the preparedness and the awareness we have today,” Driedger said, explaining how the eruption taught scientists they needed to be more involved with the emergency management community when volcanic activity occurs. “We really had to go out into the emergency management community, talk with emergency managers, helping make preparations and talk to the people who could make themselves more eruption-ready,” she said. The USGS partnered with Pierce County to install the nation’s first automatic lahar detection system in the nation, according to Tom

According to Driedger, a large-scale lahar could reach Orting as quickly as 40 minutes. If you look at the people immediately at risk from an eruption and lahar activity, Driedger said, Mount Rainier is the most dangerous volcano in the state, and even the nation.

Sharp, Pierce County Alert and Warning Coordinator at the county’s Emergency Management Department.
“On the west side, not only do we have a lot of hydrothermally altered rock, we also have out greatest population base of any valley that is adjacent to Mount Rainier.” Carolyn Driedger United States Geological Society
Sharp helped install the system in 1998. “The lahar detection system consists of sensors and equipment to pick up vibration of the movement of material,” Sharp said. “The big reason for the lahar detection system was to detect a non-eruptive lahar – really, an unheralded mud slide.” Sharp said there are 10 total early detection stations, five in the Puyallup River Valley and five in the Carbon River Valley, because the USGS predicted these valleys
to be the most likely path for a lahar. According to the USGS, the stations send their data to the Washington State Emergency Operations Center. In the event of a lahar, the center alerts local 24-hour emergency centers, including television and radio stations, but it will also send warnings to schools and hospitals. “Pierce County has been the most proactive counties, in terms of lahars, in the nation,” Driedger said. In terms of how individuals should prepare for lahar or eruption, Driedger said residents should remember the acronym LIP: learn, inquire, and plan. For learning, Driedger said, residents should learn how their daily lives will be disrupted during a lahar. If they don’t know, or want to know more, she said residents should inquire with local public officials what the plan is during an emergency situation. Finally, there’s the planning. “It’s not just having a first aid kit,” Driedger said. “Have a family emergency safety plan.”
Driedger said it is important for families to know how, where and when to meet up and stick together during an emergency. Driedger also said it’s important to have a wellstocked emergency kit, which is slightly different from a general kit. “There will be a little ash with the next eruption of Mount Rainier, so that means having your N95 dust mask,” she said. “Put some of those in your emergency kit. They’re going to fly off the shelves once there is some activity on the mountain, so get them now.” The USGS also recommends keeping a healthy supply of plastic and tape to seal homes from extreme ash fall and goggles to protect eyes from debris.
