ver since Enumclaw resident Amanda Thompson received her first guitar when she was 12 years old, she was hooked on playing music and writing songs. Now, just a year after graduating from Enumclaw High, Thompson has released her first extended play album on Sept. 18, called “Briel,” (which is also her stage name). Thompson celebrated the EPs release with a small but passionate show at the Live

That’s insane.” Besides her laser-like focus on her music career, Thompson is also attending the Green River College, studying music theory and psychology for her associates degree. Thompson’s EP is available on iTunes and Google play, and can also be listened to on reverbnation.com, where her EP was ranked number one on the Seattle charts on Oct. 15.

Without conservation fund, Washington loses millions By Ray Still Reporter
For the last 50 years, Washington’s outdoor recreation and environmental conservation efforts have been bolstered by millions of dollars from the Land and Water Conservation Fund, which helps the entire country maintain and improve access to state and federal parks across the nation. In fact, since the fund was created by former Washington Sen. Henry Jackson in 1964, Washington has received more than $659 million that went to parks as large as Mount Rainier National Park to as small as Gasworks Park in Seattle. But because the fund was not renewed by Congress on Sept. 30, Washington, along with the other 49 states, will no longer receive the money. “Expiration of the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) is outrageous,” said Vlad Gutman, senior policy director of the Washington Wildlife and
Recreation Coalition in a press release. The Wildlife and Recreation Coalition is a non-profit group of 280 organizations that promote public funding for Washington parks. “It is a profound disappointment that a small, radical minority in Congress eliminated a bipartisan program supported by more than 85 percent of the American people. We need Congress to quickly correct this and permanently reauthorize LWCF to preserve our economy, quality of life, and outdoor heritage.” The LWCF coffer is filled with royalty money from federal oil and gas leases across the country instead of taxpayer money. The fund is capped at $900 million every year, but much of that money is often diverted to other projects, according to the Land and Water Conservation Fund Coalition. In 2013, the Department of the Interior collected almost $90 billion from offshore energy production royalties, but the LWCF only received $305 million.
Only twice has the LWCF been fully funded in its 50 year history; once in 1998 and again in 2011, even though royalty money generated from offshore energy production far exceeds the $900 million cap, according to the Land and Water Conservation Fund Coalition. What sort of projects does the LWCF help fund? A more accurate question would be, what projects doesn’t it help fund? “The Land and Water Conservation Fund has multiple funding vehicles, because it’s this great toolbox that supports many uses within Washington and across the country,” Gutman said during a phone interview. “A piece of that supports state and local parks. Another part is protecting forestry jobs through the Forest Legacy Program. There are other portions that support habitat and wild land acquisitions within Washington and helps the state protect these habitats and wetlands and opens them up to public access.”
It seems the only thing LWCF funds don’t support is staffing parks and trails, which means parks and trails will stay open for the foreseeable future, even without the funds. “LWCF is about investing in new places, or improvements to existing places,” Gutman said. “It doesn’t form a part of how existing parks run. It’s about making sure we continue investing in this economic engine in the future.”
Disproportionate Effects
Although LWCF funds fuel environmental projects all across the country, Gutman said Washington will disproportionately feel the effects of no longer receiving that money. According to Gutman, Washington is one of the most competitive states for LWCF funds, despite the state’s small population size, which is partly how the funds money is split across the country. Washington is competitive, Gutman said, because
The Carbon River Road washes out, limiting access to Mount Rainier National Park and costs taxpayers to fix. Photo provided by Vlad Gutman outdoor recreation is arguably one of Washington’s largest industries. “LWCF forms a foundation of an outdoor recreation economy that is, by some measures, the largest industry in the state of Washington. Outdoor recreation sports 198,000 jobs, and much of them depend on access to public lands that LWCF has made possible,” said Gutman. “Consumers in Washington spend $21.6 billion every year on outdoor recreation, much of which happens on these federal and state
lands that LWCF supports. Out-of-state visitors have a total economic impact of nearly $5 billion dollars as well. This major economic engine is at risk now because we’ve lost the vehicle that makes this possible. That’s the real long-term impact.” The state will also feel some short term impacts as large projects in the Olympic National Park, the Pacific Crest Trail and around Mount Saint Helens now find themselves with-

Nisqually contracted with HighMark Concrete Contractors of Buckley to work with the concrete.

L&Is jurisdiction extends only to worker and workplace safety, which is what the department focused on in its investigation. “Staton was fined $58,000 for one ‘willful’ and two ‘serious’ violations for exposing workers to danger while demolishing the concrete barrier on the overpass,” according to an Oct. 19 L&I press release. According to L&I, a willful violation can be issued when the department has evidence of a “plain indifference, a substitution of judgment or an intentional disregard of a hazard or rule,” the L&I

with fireworks is an important holiday tradition, and said he wants to put a referendum on the ballot and ask the public directly whether they want a firework ban in their city. Bonney Lake ran an unofficial poll about whether or not residents support a firework ban. The poll was open to the public for a week before the Town Hall. Out of the total 842 responses, 500 (59 percent) voted against ban, and 342 (41 percent) voted for a ban. Although the poll only allowed one response per Internet Protocol (IP) Address, meaning one vote per computer or electronic device, it is uncertain whether all the responses came from Bonney Lake residents. If a ban is passed by council in 2015, it will not take effect for a full year because of the Revised Code of Washington 70.77.250(4), which states “any ordinances adopted by a county or city that are more restrictive than state law shall have an effective date no sooner than
plan they failed to give to Hamilton. Hamilton was fined $14,700 for two “serious” violations for exposing workers to the same hazards as Staton Companies, the L&I release said. Nisqually was fined $8,400 for another two “serious” violations for not ensuring a workplace free from recognized hazards and for exposing workers on Angeline Road to the possibility of an unplanned collapse. Highmark was fined $4,900 for only one “serious” violation for not protecting workers from recognized hazards.
one year after their adoption.” This means a ban passed in 2015 will not effect fireworks used on New Year’s Eve or July 4, 2016.
Council compromises
In order to give residents a replacement outlet to celebrate the country’s independence, council members Katrina Minton-Davis and Donn Lewis discussed different compromises the council could make while still enacting a firework ban. While Minton-Davis expressed her opinion that fireworks in the city have become unmanagable, she questioned how the city would enforce a total ban. Lewis was originally on the fence about the ban, but admitted his support when the council began discussing moving the Bonney Lake Days firework show to the Fourth of July and giving firework permits to registered Home Owners Associations inside the city. This would allow neighborhoods to organize their own celebrations with “safe and Full Locksmith Services & Supplies

L&I’s investigation into the incident found that Staton was worried about the possibility of the concrete barrier falling onto the road below, but continued with cutting the barrier.

Stances and questions
After the Town Hall and the following council workshop, it’s clear that whichever way the council decides to lean, it’s going to be a close vote. Randy McKibbin: “Personally, I would ban them, but I look at the whole city, and would a ban actually help the problems described here? I’m not convinced it would.” Mark Hamilton: “I think the Public Safety Committee has already gone through this. We’ve already sat down with the prosecutor, the fire chief, the police chief and the officers out there, and they say the existing laws in the books are not there. An outright ban is really the only way that we can get a handle on the fireworks problem.” Dan Swatman: “I don’t have a good concept on where to go with this. How we are going to enact that ban? What does that mean? How does that work?” James Rackley: “Fireworks have been a tradition of celebration for thousands of years. I’m not going to take away somebody’s presumed rights to set off fireworks or to celebrate.” Tom Watson: “I think we should really consider banning them.” Donn Lewis: “I am against fireworks going off indiscriminately all 12 months of the year, and I see no arrests or citations. I would like to see is a ban in the future, say a year from now. Give it a year to come up with resolutionary changes to give the police force the capability to issue citations. If we can come up with an opportunity to strengthen our enforcement of it, I would like to see us try that for a year, and if that doesn’t work, then we consider a ban next year.” Katrina Minton-Davis: “Fireworks in Bonney Lake have gotten out of control. But before I would go for an outright ban, I would look for some kind of compromise.” With Hamilton not running for re-election this year, his council seat will be taken either by Justin Evans or David Baus, who debated the pros and cons of a firework ban in the CourierHerald in September. With Evans supporting a ban and Baus against it, the election of one over the other may cement success for one of the groups.

QUESTION 2
Why are you the better candidate for Black Diamond City Council over your opponent? Describe what experience or expertise makes you the best candidate.
Craig Goodwin
Longtime residents of Black Diamond, Judy and I moved to Lake Sawyer in 1981 and fell in love with our community’s natural beauty, rich history and wonderful people. Our challenges today are big – how to maintain our city’s essential character in the face of YarrowBay’s MPDs and continued regional growth. Seeking to make a difference, I was elected to the City Council in 2010
– 2013 and following our son’s successful fight with cancer, was reappointed to the council earlier this year. My record of community involvement and environmental activism is extensive, including the Middle Green River Coalition, Regional Water Quality Committee, Sound Cities Association and Puget Sound Partnership. Why me? 1. As a former vice president with Weyerhaeuser Company and co-founder of two startup companies, I understand what it takes to be successful in business and solve problems that are large and complex. 2. Having served on the City Council during the MPD “war years” of 2010 – 2011, I understand the MPD’s perhaps as well as anyone. 3. My experience in working with city finances is extensive, including being the architect of our city’s current five year budgeting process. 4. My experience in the water and wastewater business makes me uniquely qualified to address water quality issues. 5. My track record of opening up city government to broadened public involvement and participation is extensive – first with personally sponsored open
public forums and then town hall meetings. 6. I have an established track record of open communication with all segments of our community. 7. I have sponsored and council passed significant legislation designed to better manage growth within our city. 8. I provide the experience, skills and knowledge our city desperately needs in these uncertain times.
9. Openness and transparency – read my blog at www.blackdiamondnow.net

My opponent voted in favor of YarrowBay’s massive development when he was on the council five years ago. He continues to defend that vote and supports the MPD. I actively opposed that proposal years ago, and I do not accept excuses for

public and the city to have a steadfast determination to apply every legal authority and policy to control and manage this development. There are literally hundreds of permits and decisions yet to be made, so YarrowBay’s development is far from a “done deal”. Claims that this development will enhance the city’s budget are shortsighted and uninformed by trends in municipal finance. Spending may increase, but so will debt and taxes. Any investment in services will be more than swallowed up by increases in demand from new residents. A better approach would be reasonable, balanced, incremental growth that is compatible with our neighborhoods, existing businesses and infrastructure.
the MPD (master planned development) development agreements are implemented as required. 3. Enact a city traffic concurrency ordinance and traffic impact fees to ensure that new development proceeds consistent with implementation of required mitigation measures (now before City Council). 4. Enact formation of a city transportation benefit district (done). This will add $20 to car tab fees for city residents beginning mid-2016 and provide needed funding for maintenance of city streets. 5. Budget and manage costs and staffing conservatively, assuming that no new development occurs until it actually happens. As a result, we expect a 2015 budget surplus in excess of $250,000 and adequate if not growing reserves over the next 5 years without new development or new taxes. 6. Bank and set aside all one-time revenues that might accrue from new development such as sales taxes from construction. Utilize these reserves to fund priority traffic improvements and meet grant matching requirements. 7.

SoHaPP: An effort to improve well-being Report shooting details... responsibly By Trip Hart
Special for The Courier-Herald
Striving to be as accurate and as fair as possible in our reporting should be the number one goal of any practicing journalist. But minimizing harm should be a close second. The pursuit of facts and news is not an excuse for harming innocent people or victims. This especially goes for young kids and survivors of sexual crimes. I myself cherry-pick information from the police blotter because I feel strongly about not publishing information about private domestic disputes or violence. Printing Ray Still, that information Staff Writer would only serve to harm and humiliate the victims of violence and oppression, the very people I want to protect and serve through my writing. But how far does that protection extend? In the aftermath of the Umpqua Community College massacre, and the subsequent shootings at universities in Arizona and Texas, many people have started calling for the news media to take responsibility for its scrutinizing coverage of mass shootings, claiming that such irresponsible reporting can encourage further shootings. Some just call for a desensationalization of how news media reports on mass shootings, but others, like Roseburg Sheriff John Hanlin, are demanding that news organizations no longer even name of the gunmen. Hanlin told the BBC that reporting shooter Chris Harper Mercer’s name “would only serve to encourage future shooters.” This logic relies on the phenomenon called “the contagion effect,” a theory that ideas can spread like a virus or bacteria to already susceptible people. Traditionally, the contagion effect applied to the media reporting on suicides – as in, the media traditionally doesn’t report on suicides. It may give people who are already considering suicide the encouragement they need to go through with their plans, and reporting on such a personal tragedy will further harm an already reeling family. This unspoken rule in news media is followed on a caseby-case basis. High-profile suicides like Robin Williams’ are still closely examined (or exploited, depending on who you talk to) by the news media for two reasons. First, the death of a national star is sure to affect a great number of people, and it is important to get accurate information pumping into the public sphere before rumors spread. Second, if it bleeds, it leads. Keeping the front page or the top news story raw and bloody with a recent tragedy is a good way to increase ratings and make money. But with this unprecedented rise in mass shootings in this country, people are starting to wonder if the way the news media reports on mass shootings inadvertently perpetuates them, and if so, what sort of responsibilities should news media adopt to limit the possibility of contagion. Sociology professor Zeynep Tufekci told the BBC that many rampage shooters are obsessed with other murderers

LINCCK Civility • Compassion • Kindness, a task force of the Rainier Foothills Wellness Foundation, seeks to inspire adults and children of the plateau communities to be compassionate to them-
selves, and make long lasting change improving their mental health and level of happiness for vibrant wellbeing. This may be accomplished by focusing on five daily practices: openly express gratitude; create positive experiences; clear your mind; perform random acts of kindness and support physical wellness. Long term happiness does not come from getting a nice house, lots of toys or a good income. In the short term these bring satisfaction, but the hedonic adaptation – getting used to what we have and wanting more – pushes those boundaries out further and we want a better neighborhood, a bigger boat or more money. Long term happiness comes from within. And you must work at it with intentional acts, every day.

It is important to treat mental illness with medicine and therapy, and individuals lacking essential necessities or facing abusive situations must have their life situations addressed. However, generally speaking it’s not your genes or life’s circumstances, but your intentional every day activities which brings you vibrant well-being. LINCCK asks the Plateau Communities to strengthen the entire region, increasing the well-being of the practitioner and fellow community members. In little or big ways we already do these practices, but are they daily and enough? For encouragement there should be a community book read of Shawn Achor’s “The Happiness Advantage.” Make the start of these practices easy. Concentrate

The brain takes repeated patterns, turns them into automatic behaviors, and they will become a habit and a part of your subconscious hopefully for the rest of your life. Don’t plan for the rest of your life, just for the first day, the first week. The rest will come naturally. This is a process and results will not happen overnight. No need to make massive changes. Small daily steps, compounding over time and intensifying with practice achieves the greatest rewards. Before each month’s practice a detailed statement will be posted at www.EveryDaySoHaPP.org

Freedom without order is just chaos Freedom! What a wonderful power— or is it? I considered that paradox after speaking with one of my Chinese students from Shanghai. I had asked him what had struck him most about being in America. His answer was, “all the freedom we enjoy in this country.” It was such a contrast to his country’s control under “socialist capitalism”. Yes, we have freedom in this country, but like everything carried to an extreme, too much of it can be just as bad as too little of it. Let me illustrate. I showed a segment of an Internet video called, “How to Run a Political Campaign: Campaign Strategy” to my Civics and Government class at Green River College. I showed my students the video because I wanted them to know how it feels to run for public office. I thought having that perspective would make the lectures and discus-
sions about government more realistic and relevant. It had that effect. One of the points the narRichard Elfers rator in the Columnist video made was that politics is an area where there aren’t a lot of rules for what to do and what not to do. He went on to say that becoming a candidate is not for the faint of heart. The situation can change drastically with one misspoken word, or one decision not carefully thought through. Voters have very little patience for a candidate who has not carefully considered why he/she is running and why they believe they are the right person for the job. There is Donald Trump, though, who seems to defy this adage. Trump has been blunt, honest, and politically incorrect, stating his true feelings about issues. As a result, early
In Focus
Republican voters have found his freedom to speak as he pleases refreshing. This seems to be counter-intuitive—to do the opposite of what is culturally and politically acceptable, and to be rewarded with soaring poll results and money filling Trump’s campaign coffers. Trump’s sense of freedom has turned controlling cultural rules on their head, but has it made America a better nation, or one dragged back into historical stereotypes about race, women, and immigration? Is freedom a blessing or a curse in these cases? While freedom is part of who we are, freedom also allowed a mentally ill person to walk into a classroom at Umpqua Community College and shoot and kill eight students and a teacher for no reason, and then kill himself. Freedom presents its hazards, too. It forces the media to reconsider if the names of shooters should be published to prevent the fame and attention that the shooter attained from setting a

and on our FaceBook ‘Every Day SoHaPP’, for guidance and reasons for participating. Help celebrate on the plateau the International Day of Happiness on March 20, 2016. • November – express gratitude: Gratitude can be a strong relaxant, helps us bounce back from stress and may bring longevity to life. Expressing gratitude fights the hedonic adaptation, the ‘always wanting more’. Contemplate a source of gratitude, and provide an outlet to express this thought of thanks. Every day say out loud to another three new things happening within the last 24 hours you are grateful for. You could also write down in a journal these thoughts. Directly thanking others for their actions increases their sense of well-being. Your expressions of gratitude can bring peace and contentment – a recipe for great mental health for yourself and others. In November Gratitude stops will appear on the Plateau, so stop and add a reflection of gratitude. • December – create positive experiences: Most long-term happiness is determined by how the brain processes the world you find yourself in. Interpretation of your sur-
rounding reality actually changes the experience of that reality. Improve your mental wellness with a positive outlook on life. Is your day seen as a chore leading to stress and pressure, or as a privilege giving motivation for achievements and rewarding experiences? Start every day with a positive trigger, thinking of blessings in your life. Coming upon a positive experience – a child playing, a pretty scene – push for extra time to savor it. Consciously add three smiles and 15 minutes of fun activity daily. With specific intention teach yourself to enjoy life more. • January – Clear the mind: Start off the year with daily quiet reflection to bring a single focused effort of mindfulness, and give the brain a special type of rest during the day for better performance. Minds are con-
stantly thinking, and we are over stimulated with input. Bring stillness and peace to the brain, and you might benefit with increased immune function as well as decreased depression and anxiety. Simple breathing and visualization techniques, and focusing on the sensations of your body improves sensory processing and boosts productivity. • February – perform random acts of kindness: A quick way to increase short-term happiness is to perform random acts of kindness. Greater service to community and environment and altruism to strangers and friends promotes happiness to your and the recipient. Helping someone, volunteering or donating goods and services results in a helper’s high – a release of endorphins and rush of eupho-
ria. Pay it forward, creating a cascade of cooperation. Teach children to be givers of kindness and increase their feelings of happiness and improve their friendships. • March – support physical wellness: Brain tissue appreciates physical work-outs. Both cardio fitness programs and regular weight lifting routines will help to maintain a healthy brain. These workouts do not need to be intense; a brisk walk or a one pound weight may be sufficient. Daily 5-minute exercises correlates to happiness similar to increases in your income. To fuel this activity, eat appropriate portions of a wide range of nutritious foods, properly balanced with each other. Get essential fats – 60 percent of the brain is fat cells. Make the rest of your take help for your body and brain.

I’m not writing this as your elected city council member but as a private citizen. You have a choice on the ballot, to once and for all, fix our streets. By law, money can only be used for streets. The total cost is only 1/10 of one percent sales tax increase. That is only an increase from 8.6% to 8.7%. Keep in mind, we don’t pay sales tax on food or pharmaceuticals and on some services. In fact, the average family probably spends less than $3000 in taxable sales in the city per year. This equates to only three dollars a year out of your pocket. Please join me in voting yes to fix our terrible streets. Hoke Overland Enumclaw

CORNER FROM 6 and their body count, using a blog post made by Mercer as a prime example. “His face splashed across every screen, his name across the lips of every person on the planet, all in the course of one day. Seems the more people you kill, the more you’re in the limelight,” Mercer wrote. Mercer also uploaded a video of the 2012 Sandy Hook Elementary massacre to the internet before he started shooting, possibly because he identified with the Sandy Hook shooter, according to the New York Times in the article, “Mass Killings Are Seen as a Kind of Contagion.” Both shooters were diagnosed with a mental disorder, shared a passion of firearms and lived with their mothers. A study performed by forensic psychologist Dr. J. Reid Meloy revealed that three out of nine school shooters in Germany consciously imitated the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in the
US. This gives credit to the idea that shooters may follow specific patterns that show up in mass shootings and do extensive research before going on their own rampage. There is also research to back up the claim that mass shootings can become a contagious idea, according to the BBC. Sherry Towers, a researcher at Arizona State University, studied mass shootings grouped in three categories; more than four people killed, less than four people killed but more than three people injured, and school shootings, disregarding body count and the number of people injured. Towers’ research showed national news coverage of mass shootings with a high body count and school shootings increased the possibility of another shooting occurring for the next 13 days. At the same time, mass shootings with low body counts, even with a high number of wounded people, don’t receive the same level of national news coverage, and there was no evidence of

contagion. With all this research in mind, I want to break down the issues some people have with how news media covers mass shootings into three general points. 1) Filling the news wire with details of a shooter’s personal life and mental state gives other prospective shooters someone to identify with. “The more they identify with the characteristics of the story, the more it will increase their level of risk,” J. Kevin Cameron told the New York Times. Cameron is the director of the Canadian Center for Threat Assessment and Trauma Response. The less details about a shooter there is, including his name, the less likely other potential shooters can identify with him. 2) The editorial language news media use to describe shooters, describing them as a “lone wolf” in reports or publishing pictures of the shooter that could be construed as “cool,” further encourages a familial connection with a gunman and inadvertently encourages
destructive. It needs to be melded with self-control, concern for others, and a sense of balance and perspective. Of and by itself, it, like any virtue, can turn ugly very quickly. To prevent just such a thing
more shootings. 3) Publishing the details of a mass shooting, like the actions the shooter went through and the final body count, only serve to provide other potential shooters with a blueprint for a “successful” rampage. As a news consumer, I empathize with some of these points. A Washington newspaper, traditionally focused on local news, headlined the tragedy above the fold, although the shooting was not a local event. Should area newspapers follow these national stories for their readers, or should they leave it to larger media outlets like The Seattle Times, The Washington Post and The New York Times? A week after the Umpqua shooting, a New York Times report was published about Mercer shooting a teacher who corrected him publicly a few days prior. Is this information really necessary for the public to know, or is it sensationalizing the tragedy? But as a journalist, I ultimately side with publishing accurate information and

making it widely accessible. That’s first and foremost in my job description and life philosophy, so long as the information I publish doesn’t hurt innocent people. So in response to those who are calling for the media to censor important information about mass shootings, here are my three counterpoints to those made above. 1) The public deserves to know who the shooter is, what he looks like, and what reasons he had for committing multiple murders. This includes going over his mental health, his access to firearms and his personal beliefs. Publishing these details may give a small group of alienated males someone to connect with on an emotional level, but it also gives the much larger public warning information as to what sorts of behavioral patterns to look for in a potential shooter. 2) News media needs to be extremely careful of how it describes and portrays gunmen. Plain and simple is better than poetic prose, even though using descriptive language gets higher ratings.
people who abuse their freedom. In the long run, their foresight has been highly successful. My Chinese student was in awe of our freedom, as well he should be. The People’s Republic of China overemphasizes control and the
3) News outlets aren’t the only avenue potential shooters use to research other mass shootings. Instead of trying to censor that information, it’s better for the public to be aware of the details of a mass shooting through accurate news channels so they are as informed of these patterns as other potential shooters. The public’s right to know far outweighs the potential risk of this information being used for another mass killing. Our jobs as journalists is to report accurate information and to be independent from outside influences. This obviously includes the government, but it also includes the general public as well. We have the responsibility to report the news whether the public likes it or not, which is why I will choose to publish the name of a local mass shooter, if a shooting were to ever occur in my local area. It’s not about giving them the limelight they’re seeking – it’s about reporting the news in a responsible way. Reach Ray Still at rstill@ courierherald.com. Follow him on Twitter @rayscottstill.

Preparing your trees for severe weather perished due to the lack of water. Hopefully, Mother Nature will treat us differently this winter and next year. Let us now transition to this fall and winter.
Preparing for the storm season
Homeowners concerned about the tall trees around their residences and neighborhoods should begin to think about taking some important precautions before the storm season arrives. The following tips will help to ease concerns about the safety of your trees. 1. Survey your own trees. If new clearing has exposed trees to high winds, if construction activity has altered a tree’s growing environment, if a tree has recently fallen or if some type of structural defect is visible, a million all together.

fund in the recent past, but is not on the current list of projects LWCF funds. In total, Mount Rainier National Park has received more than $8.5 million between 2005 and 2013. Some of that money went to improving the Carbon River Road inside the national park. “The Carbon River Road, up until LWCF was able to address this issue in the mid-2000s, was frequently being washed out through flooding,” Gutman said. “Every time it washed out, it would cost the federal government hundreds of thousands of dollars to restore.

While it is impossible to predict if, when or what kind of failure may occur, a tree’s long-term health and safety can be evaluated. In the majority of the hundreds of assessments I have performed, little or no action has been recommended unless a root disease or structural defect is discovered. 4. Pay particular attention to weather forecasts. Forecasts for most windstorms generally have been on the mark. Oftentimes, forecasters will predict when and where severe gusts may be anticipated. 5. Consider altering your lifestyle for a few hours. Many residents tell me they sleep in basements or carry on activities in sections of the home away from trees in their yards when severe conditions are forecast. 6. Beware of “doorbell arborists.” I am sometimes
Reauthorizing the LWCF
According to the Washington Post, the Senate has garnered enough bi-partisan support to temporarily reauthorize the LWFC, but the House of Representatives and the Natural Resources Committee controls the fund, that is holding back. Currently, the LWCF will not leave the Natural Resources Committee for at least another month, Rep. Rob Bishop (R-UT), the chairman of the committee, told the Desert Sun, as he plans to introduce his
reform bill in November. While some representatives are interested in reauthorizing the fund as-is, Sen. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and others introduced legislation that would permanently reauthorize the LWCF and provide to it the full $900 million last August. However, other representatives are uninterested in reauthorizing the bill as it currently stands and have asked for changes to limit the government’s ability to use LWCF money, according to the Washington Post.

It would take a while to restore it, and major parts if the park were closed off to access. This happened on a number of occasions.” With the help of LWFC money, Mount Rainier National Park was able to purchase privatelyowned land inside of the national park and rebuild the Carbon River Road on higher ground so it would no longer wash out. “The LWCF is a two-forone in that way, because it both opens up national heritage and actually reduces tax burden on the public,” said Gutman.

This has been quite a summer. An early spring, record number of days without rain and high temperatures had both good and bad results for our landscapes. It was a terrific year for gardeners but not so great for our water bills. In my yard, many trees and shrubs were roughly one to two weeks ahead of last year. How do I know? I actually record the dates of flowering and bud break on certain residents of my landscape. It was a bumper crop on three of four apple trees as well as for the populations of apple maggots and coddling moths. My flowering plums had hundreds of plums instead of the usual few dozen or less. When driving around, some of the victims of the dry summer have become visible such as rhododendrons and fir trees that have

is close to nil. However, it is what I often feel like when I read the news or see things on TV about the plight of people who struggle with poverty in many parts of the world. It seems the need so far outweighs the resources. In other words, it is like the problem facing the disciples. They tell Jesus that they do not have the money to go to the town to buy food for all of the people. Jesus knows this, but he is trying to teach the disciples a lesson in trusting in God. We are inadequate when we try to rely only on our own resources, but with trust in God, many things can happen. Jesus takes the food that is available and turns it into enough food to feed everyone with food left over. It starts with a small boy who has five loaves and two fish. He brings the food to Jesus. Jesus took the loaves, gave thanks and the disciples distributed the food to all who were there. There are two ways to look at this miracle. One is that Jesus used his power to increase the food so that all had more than enough. Another possibility is that people saw the

unselfishness of the boy’s gift of food and shared what they had brought with them with those around them. Either way, they were affected by the powerful presence of Jesus as he broke bread with them. What cannot be done alone, can be done trusting in Jesus. There are many examples of the ways that groups of people give from their abundance to help others who have so little. For an example close to home, in 2014 the Enumclaw Kiwanis food bank served 14,000 customers. In a like manner, the Plateau Outreach Ministries reaches people on the Plateau with food, rent help, clothing and assistance with health care. I still feel overwhelmed by the many needs of people for food, clothes, shelter and health care. Yet, when needs are coupled with people of faith, some pretty amazing things can happen. There is indeed a powerful presence working with us when we turn to Jesus for help. Faith turns into actions that benefit many.

Fall fun easily found around the Plateau
As October enters its final stages, there’s certainly no shortage of season fun on the Plateau. Whether it’s a family day of picking pumpkins or a night of fright, attractions await. Here’s a look at some of the regional favorites.
Trick-or-Treating
As usual, Enumclaw’s downtown merchants will be passing out candy to kids who scramble up and down Cole Street. The annual event is sponsored by the Enumclaw Chamber of Commerce. In Buckley, trick-or-treating will take place on Main Street from 3 to 6 p.m. Merchants will be passing out candy to youngsters. The Buckley event is sponsored by Georgio’s Italian Kitchen and the Buckley Chamber of Commerce.
Maris Farms
arrive to navigate their way through the corn maze, search for a perfect pumpkin or brave the Haunted Woods. Maris Farms, sitting on the SumnerBuckley High between Buckley and Bonney Lake, offers scenic hayrides, an animal barn full of goats, sheep, rabbits, chickens and pigs; a courtyard with fun activities for youngsters; a huge jumping pillow; zip line; mechanical bull riding; large tube slides; and the newest activity, bubble soccer. But that’s just during the day. At night, the scares begin in the Haunted Woods, where a 35-minute walk takes guests through a series of frightening scenarios, inhabited by live characters. For more about the family-owned operation, including hours of operation and pricing, visit www.marisfarms.com.

If it’s fall, it must be time for eggnog Step aside pumpkin spice - your 15 minutes are over (at least for another year). The holidays are quickly approaching and it’s time for eggnog to have its moment. While pumpkin permeates the culture every fall from coffee flavoring to air fresheners - too often eggnog gets relegated to a glass
that shows up on tables just a few weeks a year. In the spirit of the season, here is everything you need to know about all things eggnog: • Although eggnog’s origins are rooted in 14th century England, it didn’t really hit its stride until the American colonies got started. In Europe, milk

Set designers and actors have again done their best to offer a realistic and horrifying show. Organizers have moved the popular, annual attraction to a larger location at 2000 Collins Rd., just west of downtown Buckley. It’s a larger facility with accessible and additional parking, more attractions and upscale features. This year a portion of the proceeds will benefit Buckley community activities. Visitors should be aware that it’s a cash-only trans-

and eggs were expensive in those days, so only the wealthy could afford to drink something that contained both. In the Americas, colonists had their own dairy cattle and chickens, so it was easy and inexpensive to make the drink that became known as eggnog. • Typical eggnog includes milk and/or cream, spices like nutmeg and vanilla, some form of alcohol, such as rum, and raw eggs. In the olden days, homemade eggnog contained alcohol in the hopes that it would kill
any bacteria that might be present. Today, we add spirits for enjoyment, confident that all-natural pasteurized eggs like Davidson’s Safest Choice mean the raw eggs in eggnog are safe. • Of course today, you can find eggnog in cartons in the grocery store, in many varieties. If you’re an eggnog lover you’ve probably tried them all … and come to the conclusion that no matter how good storebought eggnog might be, nothing beats homemade. • Eggnog isn’t just for drinking. It’s a flavorful,
action - credit cards and debit cards are not accepted. Those looking to save some money can take a canned food donation for the local food bank and get a dollar off their admission. All the details can be found at www.frightfactory.net.
The farm’s Kids Korral offers activities like a bubble table, duck races, a corn maze, the hand milking cow, cattle roping, tractors and tires to climb on, and a chalkboard house. The corn box is always the biggest hit, where kids remove their shoes and climb into a box filled with nine tons of corn. A traditional feature is the corn maze, which again shares billing with Darigold. Those entering the maze will find questionnaires that help guide them through. As expected, it’s also a destination for those looking to pick a pumpkin. All the details are available at www.thomassonfarm.com.

Being dairy farmers by trade, the Thomasson family has transformed a portion of their property to bring fall fun - and a bit of farm life - to their guests.
festive ingredient in a range of dishes, from breakfast options like Eggnog-stuffed French Toast to lunch yummies like classic Monte Cristo sandwiches dipped in an eggnog batter and panfried. And of course, eggnog has a place of honor in holiday desserts with dishes like Chocolate Eggnog Truffles.
Incorporating homemade eggnog into recipes is easy, and it brings out the rich, authentic eggnog flavor that makes holiday dishes special. You can find plenty of eggnog, eggnog-inspired and eggnog infused recipes online at sites like www. safeeggs.com.

Play it safe this Halloween with these simple trick-or-treating tips. Never trick-or-treat alone, and always stay in familiar neighborhoods. Carry a flashlight, and wear a watch you can read in the dark to obey your curfew. Make sure your shoes fit properly, and that your costume doesn’t drag on the ground. Whatever your choice, stay safe and have a great night.
Make sure swords and other props are flexible, and avoid wearing a mask while walking. Wear bright or reflective clothing, adding reflective tape if necessary. Approach only houses that are lit, and don’t cut across yards or driveways. Stay away from pets. Even pets you know may not recognize you in costume. Let an adult inspect your candy before eating it.

Spartans beat Lancers, remain undefeated The Sumner High Spartans added another win to their perfect record Friday, beating the Lakes Lancers in a highly-anticipated South Puget Sound League 3A showdown. The Spartans hosted Lakes in their final home game of the season and won 31-24. The Lancers got on the board first, scoring a touchdown to take a 7-0 lead. Sumner answered with a 69-yard touchdown pass from sophomore wide receiver Tre Weed to junior wide receiver Tyson Rainwater. The second quarter saw another Lakes touchdown and a 23-yard field goal from Sumner, sending the Spartans into halftime trailing their guests 14-10. The third quarter belonged to the Spartans, as Sumner scored two touchdowns to take the lead. Junior running back Connor Wedington scored on a 61-yard run and senior running back Josh Riley scored on a 80-yard run. To end the quarter, Lakes scored another TD, bringing the Lancers within three. Sumner scored a fourthquarter touchdown on a 13-yard run from Riley, pushing the Spartans back on top by 10 points. The Lancers added a field goal, but it wasn’t enough. The Spartans remain undefeated with a 5-0, 7-0 record. Up next for Sumner is its rival, Bonney Lake. Game time is 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 23, at Sunset Chev Stadium.
Bonney Lake
The Panthers moved up in the standings after beating the Auburn Trojans in a
Thursday night game. Bonney Lake won 38-20 and now sits tied for second place in the SPSL 3A with Lakes and Auburn Mountainview. Bonney Lake is 3-2 in league play and 4-3 overall. The Panthers scored early with a 1-yard run from senior running back Ethen Koepke. The Panthers added to their lead in the second quarter with a pair of touchdowns.

The Trojans added a touchdown to end the third quarter, but Bonney Lake kicked a 25-yard field goal in the fourth quarter to increase its lead to 17. The Trojans scored its final touchdown of the night but were unsuccessful with the point after. The final score of the game came off a 27-yard run from Koepke.

with a 44-yard pass and also scored on a 13-yard run. After a Riverside field goal late in the second, the Hornets took a 14-10 lead into halftime. Less than a minute into the third quarter the Hornets increased their lead thanks to a 3-yard run from senior running back Connor Pierce. Another third quarter score, a 37-yard run by Pierce, increased Enumclaw’s lead. Following a pair of third quarter Raven touchdowns, Enumclaw’s lead was at three entering the final quarter of play. The Hornets increased their lead to nine with a 3-yard touchdown run by Pierce. The Ravens scored once more in the fourth on a kickoff return but it wasn’t enough to surpass the Hornets. Enumclaw scored two more touchdowns before the game ended. The first was a 69-yard pass from Garvin to senior wide receiver Jordan Johnson and the final scoring drive of the game was a 41-yard run by Pierce. The Hornets host the Lakes Lancers for Homecoming with kickoff set for 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 23.

touchdown Friday night might have made things momentarily interesting, but the Washington Patriots responded in game-winning fashion. The South Puget Sound League 2A foes squared off on the turf of the White River campus, with the visiting Patriots leaving Buckley on the winning side of a 49-21 score. The loss dropped White River to 1-4 in league play and 1-6 overall. The Hornets lone victory came Oct. 9 when the team knocked off Clover Park in a Homecoming tilt. Friday’s contest started on a positive note for the host Hornets, who cracked the scoreboard first. White River’s early lead came courtesy of a short scoring run by Justin Tidwell and an extra-point conversion by Alex Morris. From that point, things started going south for the Hornets. Washington’s Tariq Ellis ran for three touchdowns in the second quarter and another in the third period, putting the Patriots on top 28-7. Showing resiliency, White River bounced back in impressive fashion, adding two TDs to slice into the visitor’s lead. Tyler Meadows scored on a pass from quarterback Trevor
Johnson in the third period and Johnson added a short TD run in the fourth to cut the margin to 28-21. That was all the Hornets could muster and homefield momentum disappeared when Ellis added his fifth and sixth rushing touchdowns of the evening.
The Patriots’ final tally of the night came on a long fumble return. White River will be in search of victory No. 2 Friday night but the effort will come on the road. The Hornets will be in Steilacoom for a 7 p.m. contest with the Sentinels.
Panthers top Hornets Bonney Lake’s Allie Kober looks to control the ball as Enumclaw’s Casey Ranft and Kaitlin McCowin (18) move in. The Panthers and Hornets squared off Thursday evening at the Enumclaw Expo Center in a South Puget Sound League 3A battle. Bonney Lake emerged with the overtime victory and improved its record to 6-4 in league play; with the loss, Enumclaw slipped to 5-5. It was Enumclaw’s second overtime game of the week.

if every proposed road improvement were built, we would all still be gridlocked by YarrowBay’s additional 60,000 vehicle trips a day. And most of those proposed road projects aren’t even designed yet, much less funded. Lake Sawyer is another example. Last year City Hall approved one of YarrowBay’s subdivisions with variances and concessions that would increase pollution and flood-
ing to wetlands that feed into Lake Sawyer. Local groups like Save Black Diamond rallied and proved scientifically to the hearing examiner that the city erred in allowing the use of obsolete engineering standards. With no help from their elected representatives, citizens helped reduce some of the risk. We need a City Hall that respects input from the people, especially those hundreds of people who have spoken up at public hearings over the years about the excessive negative impacts of
the YarrowBay development. Our next step is to use every legal authority that the city has to limit YarrowBay’s development to avoid gridlock, environmental degradation and crushing new taxes for infrastructure. State law combined with the energetic application of local regulations and conditions suggest effective steps to use this authority. Steps have not been taken because City Hall has lacked the focus and will to do so. The voters can change that on Nov. 3.
Ron Taylor
The most critical issue facing Black Diamond is financial stability. Making sure that we maintain a balanced budget is paramount. Past councils did not have good foresight or long range planning. I and other council members instituted long range budget projections that were instrumental in showing corrective measures that were needed to keep portions of the city budget from going into deficit. We must not ask our citizens for bailout money and we must manage our revenue with all the expertise that we can muster. The problem with any bedroom community like Black Diamond, which is primarily residential and has little commercial activity, is that it costs more to provide services than the revenue generated. Commercial property and commerce, on the other hand, generates more revenue than is required to provide those services. Thus, a healthy mix of residential and commercial property is what sustains the local government. We have the residential but we sorely lack the commercial activity to stimulate our local economy. We must take measures to invigorate and invite business to Black Diamond. Deserved or not Black Diamond has gained a reputation for not being
address this service that has been overlooked and allowed to atrophy for decades. I work well with a variety of people. The current council is working well together and has been accomplishing good, productive legislation. It’s a team that we should keep together. Still, I do speak up and challenge conventional thinking when it is in the best interest of the citizens that elected me. As a steward of the citizen’s tax money and the policies that affect their lives and property I refuse to allow myself or others to not be accountable.
business friendly and making their permit process difficult. We must change that reputation. Good government should be a benefit to its citizens, not a burden.
QUESTION 2
Why are you the better candidate for Black Diamond City Council over your opponent? Describe what experience or expertise makes you the best candidate.
Ron Taylor
I have eight years of experience as a leader in Black Diamond government. I have an intimate working knowledge of the city processes, budget, needs and pitfalls. I will be fully engaged for citizens from day one and do not need a long learning curve to come up to speed. Also, my career in maintaining large scale infrastructures with budgets in the millions gives me understanding of large projects and budgets. I have a lifelong history of leadership and community service. Having trained and served in firefighting and law enforcement services. I have an excellent working knowledge of police and fire services and what is necessary to support them. I have helped the city identify and define an alarming lack of sufficient fire protection and gone on to lead the charge to correct this. We have to step up and

My wife and I are active in our local schools, scouting and other activities. We are raising three sons in town and are dedicated to a better future for all families.
The public is demanding that their City Hall not cave in to YarrowBay’s legal threats. The risk to the public in every respect is far greater than any risk of litigation that City Hall may take to defend the public interest. When compared to the huge increase in taxes that the public faces, legal costs to stand up to YarrowBay are minor. When compared to the likely traffic jams and crowded schools that will be caused by this development, the attention and courage needed to properly apply the law and policies is well justified. City Hall has effectively

transferred millions of dollars in costs and fees to the public and ratepayers instead of following through and enforcing the development agreement. For example, the failure to enact a government facilities charge as authorized in the development agreement represents a $20-36 million dollar windfall for YarrowBay Corporation and a commensurate increase in future taxes for residents. There are many examples of lost opportunities, variances and concessions that have undermined our ability to hold Yarrow Bay accountable for their massive negative impacts. I am committed to changing the trajectory of that pattern.
In our city’s strong mayor form of government, the City Council establishes policy and the mayor implements that policy. Accordingly, Mayor (Carol) Benson has responsibility for managing staff and consultants related to the MPD’s and the process for reviewing and issuing permits. Several issues such as traffic mitigation often require action on the part of both the city and developer – the developer to meet development agreement conditions and the city to fund a part of the total miti-

firm against legal action by the Covington Water District while being willing to talk. I believe our city action will bear fruit. On the other hand, we have an outside consultant advising a group of local citizens to adopt a “death by a thousand cuts” strategy in opposition to the MPD’s. Such strategy would “invite” legal action by YarrowBay through purposeful delay of permits, staff turnover or other city action/inaction. Not only would this be unethical, illegal and irresponsible, it would be just plain stupid and potentially bankrupt the city. Yes, there is a risk of litigation but more driven by politics than sound policy.

It is always best when the mayor and council can act as a team and we do today. That is why the mayor and the four members of council up for re-election all endorse each other. We have a city that is now working following the unfortunate tenure of the former mayor. Regarding litigation, cities are always at some risk. Successful businesses and cities are neither afraid of litigation nor do they seek it out. Recent city action to assume water service rights to a disputed 98 acre area is a good example – standing

Below are some comments from our kindergarten staff: - “Conferences eased anxiety for both our parents and students!” - “I learned so much from parents and by watching students!” - “I knew the names of each child by the first day of school and I knew quite a bit about each one!” - “I feel conferences helped to build an immediate positive relationship with families.” - “Spending one-on-one time with our English Language Learners and their parents was significant in support of the learning of the child.” 1441955

GAPP Travels
Calendar of Events: October/November
This summer 19 Enumclaw High School GAPP students left on a jet plane to spend one month with their German host families and travel around eastern Europe. Destinations included the German capital Berlin to see the Wall, historic Prague (Czech Republic), the infamous concentration camp Auschwitz, mysterious Krakow (Poland), beautiful Budapest (Hungary), and a quick lunch in glamorous Vienna. Additionally, students stayed for three weeks with their exchange partners in the town of Eggenfelden, near Munich, Germany. What a life-changing experience! The next GAPP (German American Partnership) trip will be summer of 2017.

DEBUT FROM 1 Truthful lyrics
While Thompson outlines the music for the piano and guitar portions of her songs, it’s the lyrics that she concentrates the most on. “I spend the most amount of time on lyrics. That is the most important thing to me,” she said. “Melodies are really important too, but the lyrics I have to have perfect. I have to have a story behind them.” In fact, the lyrics to most songs on her album are true stories about herself. “Each song is a story in my life, and most of the songs are about romantic relationships,” said Thompson. “But I want
to steer this next record away from the romantic relationships. I feel like I’m turning into Taylor Swift. That’s not the way I want to go.” Thompson’s musical style is far from Taylor Swift’s, and is inspired by artists such as Lana Del Rey, Broods and Banks. Her music stays centered on an indie pop/techno musical style with some traditional piano thrown in, giving her music a classical feel among the soft electronics. While her vocals are already a huge portion of “Briel”, Thompson plans to accentuate them by experimenting with stacking vocals in her next album.
Family support
Thompson admits how lucky she’s been in find-

ing band members that clicked so well with her over Craigslist and finding a producer who meshes with her musically and stylistically. But it’s been her father who have given her the most support through her budding music career. “My dad is my manager. My dad is the guy who does everything. He is the one who put on the last release party and even introduced me to my (producer), and he’s the one who doesn’t really know about the music industry but is trying really hard to, just for me, so he is super supportive,” Thompson said. “I wouldn’t even be taking the steps that I am if it wasn’t for him.”

Describe your ideas, plans and/or proposals concerning how the City Council and city will need to deal with the two YarrowBay master planned developments, The Villages and Lawson Hills. Is there a concern of the city facing litigation regarding the development and City Council action?

ments that are applicable. How our city administration makes these decisions will determine the scale, timing and impacts of the development. The city should not let the developer opt out of promised impact fees totaling over twenty million dollars. The council needs to take action soon, or these funds will be lost and the taxpayers will pick up the tab. The Master Planned Development Review Team should be re-focused and better managed. Recommendations submitted by regional land use experts to community members earlier this year should be fully implemented. The city is pursuing the assumption of water rights from portions of the Covington Water District. That takeover would effectively transfer several million dollars of costs away from YarrowBay and put them on the backs of ratepayers. The city must update its storm water management standards from 2005 to the newest 2012 standard. We want to ensure that YarrowBay’s development will not pollute our wetlands, streams and Lake Sawyer. Of course there is concern about potential litigation. However, the costs to the public of not taking action far exceed the risk of litigation. When you add up the costs associated with longer commute times, higher taxes and fees for every public service, and reduced property values, the costs of defending our rural town pale by comparison. Every public service, every

tax bill, and everything we like about our community is directly related to how we manage and control future land development.
Ron Taylor
Whether you agree with them or not the master planned developments have been signed and sealed and are here to stay. Our job at this point is to maintain diligent oversight of the conditions of the developments to assure that all requirements are met. There are a number of provisions and conditions in the development agreements that will help us shape and direct the progress. But, we have to be paying close attention and make sure that we exercise those measures. For example, we have to make sure that YarrowBay does every traffic study that they are required to do and only allow development to proceed when traffic issues are mitigated. We also have to closely watch our economic health. Our budget is already stretched. We have to make sure that development indeed pays its own way because we cannot afford a burden on the city or citizens. Current models show that this will be a challenge. Further, we cannot afford to bank on money that might come into the city through one time sources like permits. When those funds do come in it will not be a sustained money flow. We can’t be lured into a false sense of security from one time revenues. Therefore we must keep our budget balanced on its own merits so that it can remain healthy independent of development. I will not support any action that is not legally defensible. It is not realistic or necessary to make YarrowBay “go away”. On the other hand, I will not be intimidated or back down when it comes to the good of our citizens and health of the city. I was elected to first and foremost be an advocate for the citizens and health of the city.

Continuation of responses to my opponent’s accusations:
1441945
• There are no plans to build, nor am I in favor of building any “big box” stores in Enumclaw. However, I do support the ability for families to meet their shopping needs locally. • Confronted with many very difficult financial choices as a city, I explore and discuss options available while doing analysis prior to making city decisions to help our city be strengthened financially. • The Thomas Farm will not be developed in the foreseeable future. I and other city council members voted not to pursue changing the agricultural restrictions on this property. • I support modest, quality growth for Enumclaw that will better allow us to meet our financial expenditures for core city services while preserving our small town charm. • My opponent sent out a letter last week and all the accusations she made regarding me are untrue.
