Was that Inslee or Clark Kent?

JEAN GODDEN O

dds are that our governor, Jay Inslee, won’t be the next president of the United States. But, although some (mostly Republicans) are saying he’ll step down any day now (and may have by now), it would be a mistake to count Inslee out. The governor had one of his most encouraging weeks in days following the second Democratic debates. Jay was not only getting great press for some of his accomplishments, but he was being seen (hide the children’s eyes) as a sex symbol. Part of his appeal was the fact that, although he had not previously won eyeglasses to debates, Inslee had donned heavy-rimmed spectacles, a style that looked like the square frames worn by comic-strip character Clark Kent, meant to disguise his true identity as Superman. Was that Inslee on stage or the Man of Steel? Glamour magazine called Inslee “hot as hell” and they didn’t mean that he was melting from his emphasis on global warming. Meanwhile Jezebel, the feminist on-line magazine, wrote about Inslee’s “orca agenda.” Who could dislike orcas? Katherine Krueger of Splinter decreed that Jay was “one of the few bright spots of the (second debate) night.” Certainly those glasses set him apart from a look-alike group of male candidates wearing dark suits and graying hair. Skeptics could ask if his specs were prescription lenses or rose-colored glass. The flurry of random tweets about Inslee was awesome. One simply called Jay “the man your mother left your father for.” Another tweet

confessed: “My heart votes for Bernie or Biden, but my body votes for Inslee.” Washingtonians know a winning campaign launched from this state has scant chance of success. There have been past attempts. Most notable were two campaigns on behalf of Sen. Henry Jackson, nicknamed Scoop because he delivered the Everett Herald as a kid. Jackson announced for president on Nov. 19, 1971. He was a promising candidate, never having lost an election in 13 tries. However, despite a vigorous campaign on his behalf, he lost the nomination to George McGovern, who—as we know—was handed defeat by Richard Nixon. In 1976, Scoop was again among frontrunners during a second campaign for president. This time, he lost to Georgia Gov. Jimmy Carter. Although Jackson was known for his staunch liberalism on issues such as the environment, he was faulted for a hardline approach to wars and international issues. They called him a “hawk.” Jackson’s bids for the presidency were the most successful near-wins in the state’s history. However there have been “mentions” of other local politicos. Some back-roomers suggested that Gov. Gary Locke as a perfect running mate for Al Gore in 2000. But the crowded field included everyone from North Carolina’s John Edwards to New Hampshire Gov. Jeanne Shaheen. Eventually the VP slot went to Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman. This year’s campaign for Jay Inslee is the most serious attempt at obtaining a place on a national ticket since Scoop Jackson’s foray. The Inslee campaign is far more promising than the toe-in-the-water attempt that Starbucks mogul Howard Schultz mounted early this year. If Inslee remains in the race today, his chances aren’t great. Still it is important to review what he could bring to a national ticket. The Northwest native is a former congressman, serving both in Eastern Washington and in Seattle suburbs. The son of a coach, he was a

star athlete (basketball and football) and has worked as a small-town lawyer, an author (“Apollo’s Fire”) and a two-term governor known for awesome accomplishments in health care, family leave, reproductive issues, environmental initiatives and—very important these days—gun control. These are perilous times when we need all the muscle we can muster to present good choices to the American voters. Is one of the best options Jay Inslee, the man who is now gaining folk fame as a Clark Kent (aka Superman) lookalike? Could be. As one of his campaign staffers slyly commented: “You never see both at the same time. Jean Godden is a veteran Seattle PI and Seattle Times newspaperwoman and city councilwoman.

Port of Seattle welcomes Lufthansa announcement of new non-stop service to Munich THE BAVARIAN CAPITAL WILL BE SEA-TAC’S 29TH INTERNATIONAL DESTINATION The Port of Seattle welcomes today’s announcement of Lufthansa’s new nonstop service between Seattle-Tacoma International Airport and Munich, Germany beginning June 1, 2020. The Bavarian capital will be Lufthansa’s second nonstop destination from Sea-Tac, joining the German carrier’s existing service to Frankfurt. The new flight to Munich will be SeaTac’s only non-stop connection to one of Europe’s most important business and leisure destinations. The home of wellknown German companies like BMW and Siemens, Munich is also the base for Microsoft’s operations in Germany and the gateway to the spectacular scenery and recreation of the Bavarian Alps. “Munich’s thriving technology, aerospace, and biotech industries are the perfect fit for the Puget Sound’s economy,” said Port of Seattle Commission President Stephanie Bowman. “That’s just one of the reasons why we are so excited about this new service as well as providing another choice for regional travelers in their connections around the globe.” The new service will initially operate six times per week in the summer using the fuel-efficient A350-900, Lufthansa’s quietest and most environmentally-friendly aircraft. The flight will operate every day except Thursday and will offer 293 seats

(48 business, 21 premium economy, 224 economy). “Seattle has long been a key gateway for Lufthansa travelers in the Pacific Northwest with daily service to Frankfurt airport and opportunities to assist in building bridges between Washington State’s burgeoning hi-tech and aviation industries and companies in Germany as well as the Middle East, Africa and beyond,” said Frank Naeve, Lufthansa Group’s Vice President of Sales for the Americas. “Now we are thrilled to be expanding this bridge, offering direct flights with our ultra-modern, state-of-theart Airbus A350-900 to our Bavarian hub in Munich, Europe’s only 5-star airport and the gateway to hundreds of additional flights for our local customers.” International Service at Sea-Tac Lufthansa’s new Munich flight will be the 11th new international service added to Sea-Tac since 2017 (2017: Virgin Atlantic to London-Heathrow, Aeromexico to Mexico City, Norwegian to LondonGatwick [seasonal]; 2018: Air France to Paris, Aer Lingus to Dublin, Thomas Cook to Manchester [seasonal]; 2019: Japan Airlines to Tokyo-Narita, Cathay Pacific to Hong Kong, Delta to Osaka [seasonal], and Singapore Airlines to Singapore). The new International Arrivals Facility is currently in the middle of construction and slated to open in the Fall of 2020, creating an expanded and enhanced experience to meet the growing regional demand for international travel.

‘Between the Lines: The Power and Parallels of the West Seattle Annexation’ Members of the Southwest Seattle Historical Society will enjoy an exclusive exhibit preview of “Between the Lines: The Power and Parallels of the West Seattle Annexation.” There will be a presentation by guest curators Phil Hoffman and Greg Lange discussing their research concerning the 1907 West Seattle annexation.

Members will also have a chance to ask questions, enjoy light refreshments provided by PCC, and be the first to check out this one-of-a-kind exhibit showcasing our unique political history. The Between the Lines exhibit will be opened to the general public the following day, Sunday, August 18, from 12–4 p.m.

Rolfing is a kind of massage that means listening with your hands WEST SEATTLE ROLFING OFFERS A CALM WAY TO RELEARN YOUR BODY’S LANGUAGE By Patrick Robinson Human beings are a mix of brain and muscle, bone, and emotion and many say spirit and energy. Thought and habit shape us. We are animated by our mind and often held in patterns of motion by thinking about sensory input in only one way. We suffer from injuries, exercise too hard, and develop patterns of posture and rest that can lead to chronic pain. Millions of us seek relief in medications, braces, pads, creams, and much more. For others the answer is some form of massage. In fact research estimates that massage therapy was an $18 billion industry in the country in 2018. The history of therapeutic touch dates back thousands of years to ancient cultures that believed in it’s medical benefits. The first written records of massage therapy are found in China and Egypt. One form, called Rolfing®, was developed by Ida P. Rolf, Ph. D, in the 1960s and ’70s and goes by the formal name of Rolfing Structural Integration®. It combines manual hands-on therapy and movement re-education to realign the body by applying a range of pressure and vectors to reorganize connective tissue which encompasses all the muscles, fascia, nerves, organs, ligaments, tendons, and bones. Dr. Rolf was a combination of intellectual, spiritual and practical. She was able to blend aspects of

eastern healing traditions with her own uniquely grounded way of thinking about physical movement. One of 40 Rolfling® practitioners in the greater Seattle area and the only one in West Seattle is Jeanne Vadnais. She’s a Certified Advanced Rolfer™ & Rolf Movement™ Practitioner with six years of experience. Her own story is remarkable. A ballet dancer during her youth she found her lower back pain had become chronic and nothing provided full relief. But she had had some Rolfing® therapy done in her late 20s in Seattle. It changed her life. Not only was the pain gone but it would eventually give her a new career direction. Her education included a degree from UCLA and then a job with Amazon for 14 years. So powerful was her experience with Rolfing® she weighed taking the training against a move for Amazon to Ireland. Once there she went to one year long night school program on massage She came up for an important assignment for the company, one for which she was uniquely qualified, and made an agreement with them that she would take the new assignment if she could get time off to go study Rolfing® at the only place in the U.S. it is taught, Boulder Colorado. It meant moving, along with her Irish born husband back to America. After taking the new assignment for Amazon to completion she finished her studies and made Rolfing® her new path. For some time, in its early development, Rolfing® developed a reputation for being painful, but that’s not accurate. Vadnais

explained, “If it’s painful it’s not being done properly. That’s not to say it’s completely comfortable but there should be no pain involved.” I encountered Vadnais at the West Seattle Summerfest where she offered ten minute trial sessions. Since I had suffered a fall the previous December and twisted my knee, back and shoulder which remained in chronic pain, her offer sounded good. I booked a session. It was like nothing I expected. Normally Rolfing® involves a ten session approach aiming to both relieve pain but perhaps more importantly re-educate the body through a series of sessions

focused on different areas. As Vadnais explained, for perhaps 30 minutes of the 90 minute session, nerve signals travel to the brain, which then interprets the signal. If it’s perceived as pain you respond by recoiling or using that body part in a way to avoid the pain. While that’s natural, beyond a certain point your body can develop patterns of movement that don’t let you move naturally. She teaches you and your muscles to think about the information flow in a different way. For me that meant “pointing my shins” into each step. She arrived at this after having me stand, walk, and tell

Scott Lautman is not an Olympic swim champion By Rob Clay For several years in the ’80s and even recently Scott Lautman (Highline High ’71) was introduced as “Olympic swimming champion” when in fact he was far from it. From high school to the UW swim team, Scott was a good, fast, all-American swimmer but no champion. After learning to swim in Lake Burien nearly 60 years ago, Scott found getting in the water Winter or Summer was fun. Coach Earl McKinney at Highline High School trained and encouraged Scott.

What most of us consider a good swim, say maybe three or four laps in the hotel pool, Scott sees as the tip of the iceberg. Sort of dipping your toes and heading back to the beach umbrella with a mint julip at your side. Now picture this. Lake Washington is roughly 20 miles from Bothell to Renton. That is a distance Scott would consider a decent swim. Twenty years ago Scott swam around New York’s Mahattan Island from the murky Hudson River through to the East River and back to

SWIMMER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5 the Hudson, a distance of 27 miles. It only took him about as long as a normal work day at the office (8 hours 36 minutes). Was it cold? “yes,” Scott says, “but you get used to it,” he added. Last year in Vladivostok, Russia, Scott entered the fridgid 30 degree water in a 25 meter, 10-lane lake pool that had been cut from three foot thick ice. Swimming in water

that cold can freeze the hands and feet quickly to point that you cannot feel what you touch,” Scott said numbly. He almost failed to mention the outside air temp was only 11 degrees. Though covered in vaseline (past swimmers used lanolin or even axle grease) Scott said it does not help much against the cold. “Your skin is pink from the burning cold,” Scott noted but they are not in the water that long—with warming rooms to

bring the body temps back slowly. Swimming the English Channel (21 miles) can be daunting. Wind and currents change quickly from calm to white caps. The threat of sea creatures is always present, including jelly fish and sharks though Scott said he’s never been bothered by either. He did say he was bumped recently at Alki Beach by a Harbor Seal who seemed very inquisitive about Scott being in the water. How does one avoid “tasting” the water?

“The English Channel is very salty, much more than Puget Sound. Some lakes have different tastes, some bad. We mostly spit it out as we swim,” Scott advised. In a curious moment we asked about bodily functions. In more than 40 yrs of distance swimming Scott has never had to hear the call of nature but acknowledged that during a 12+ hour swim, some swimmers simply have to swim away from the crew boats and do their business before continuing on. Sustenance on the other hand is ususally done through a feeding tube since the rules for distance swimming do not allow a swimmer to get out of the water. A previously prepared mixture of proteins and carbohydrates is taken from a bottle handed to the swimmer from a crew boat. Now retired from 35 years with Alaska Air in the HR department, Scott is happy to get in a swim or two pretty regularly. He’s slated to swim at Angle Lake Sept 14 in a Master Swimmers 1 & 2 mile swim with a group of 200 local and international swimmers. While all the distance Scott has covered, swimming from Burien to Vladivostok or Angle Lake to the West Seattle YMCA pool it does not make him an Olympic champion. He is, however, a champion of perseverance, a champion of hard work, a champion cancer survivor and a champion friend to swimmers around the world and here at home. iwsa.world/news/first-time-vladivostok

Ice blocks like this were cut from a lake near Vladivostok Russia for an annual ice swimming event in 30 degree water. Scott Lautman, from Burien, said the swimmers are only in the water a matter of minutes.

WSLETTER

To the editor: I want to thank you for publishing a recent opinion piece titled “No More Manholes? What’s next?” by former Seattle City Councilmember Jean Godden. In it she thoroughly and thoughtfully covers government efforts to achieve gender neutral language in laws, code, and titles. Words have power. I and so many others have worked too hard and sacrificed too much to show up to work and get called “councilman.” Those days are over. I’m proud to have led the charge as a State Senator and now as a King County Councilmember to

achieve gender neutral language at both the state and county level. These are good policies and the right thing to do. Gender neutral language reflects a more inclusive shift that helps all individuals, regardless of their gender identity, feel represented in a government that is fundamentally for the people. Perhaps this is a small salvo in our struggle for gender equality, but we can and we must fight on every battlefield possible. The transition to gender-neutral language is a step in the right direction and I’m proud to support it. Jeanne Kohl-Welles King County Councilmember

There are several blogs serving the Westside—but none of them pack the 1-2 combination punch of Westside Seattle and westsideseattle.com. In this digital age, more and more retailers are realizing the power of combining brick-and-mortar stores with their online presence. And Westside Seattle is that “brick-and-mortar” for advertisers in this community. Those who advertise in the newspaper and on the website earn a 25% discout. Without both, you’re fighting with one arm behind your back—like advertisers on those other Westside blogs.

It was slow, deep, deliberate and she would pause at times to feel how the muscle was responding. She worked on entire muscle groups and asked that I participate

by turning my leg at points. In researching this and in her comments and actions the idea of “listening with your hands” was reinforced. This isn’t just meant to make you feel good. It’s genuine therapy aimed at correcting problems. Did it work? I was skeptical but upon walking out did feel markedly better. The next day in all honesty the pain was back

Would I recommend it? Yes. Rolfing® doesn’t hurt. It does teach you how to be more thoughtful about movement, how your body works with gravity, how to change your way of thinking about healing. Be prepared to spend more than you might for a conventional massage. But it’s money well spent since it’s not meant to just feel good.

The courts will be lit for extended after-school use depending on funding. Two existing basketball hoops will be relocated. The courts will be primarily used by Highline High School students, however the Highline School District allows for shared use after hours and weekends. The courts will be used for Physical Education curriculum and WIAA sponsored school competitions. Additional non-school use will be coordinated with Burien Parks & Recreation. Access for Highline High School students will be improved with a new sidewalk, and a new crossing at 156th St. Location of Proposal: 15631 Des Moines Memorial Dr., Burien, WA 98148 on tax parcel nos. 202304-9031 and 2023049032, in SW Qtr.

An environmental impact statement (EIS) is not required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). This decision was made after a review of the completed environmental checklist and other information on file with the lead agency as well as comments received during the Notice of Consultation. This information and a copy of the full DNS is available to the public upon request by contacting the Responsible Official at the above address and phone number. Comment & Appeal: This Determination of Nonsignificance (DNS) is issued under WAC 19711-340(2). The lead agency will not act on this proposal for 14 days from the date of issue. Comments must be submitted in writing before 4:00 p.m. August 30, 2019. The responsible official will reconsider the DNS based on timely comments and may retain, modify, or, if significant adverse impacts are likely, withdraw the DNS. If the DNS is retained, it will be final after the expiration of the comment deadline. There is no agency appeal of this DNS; appeals are governed by RCW 43.21C.075.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 2019 WESTSIDE SEATTLE

When Burien had a radio station By Jim Hewett In 1972, I returned to Seattle, completing a round-the-world journey that started in September 1969. I had been a disc jockey at KOL-FM in the late ’60s. The only marketable skill I had at the time was as a licensed radio operator and on-air personality. I was looking for work and heard about KQIN in Burien. It was only 500 watts at 800 on the AM dial, but it was in the Seattle market and it had an opening at the time. I applied. The owners were John and Barbara Mowbray and the operations manager was Brian Calkins. I had worked with Brian briefly at the Auburn radio station so he knew my work. Since he knew what I could do I was immediately hired and began working every day on the air. It was a decision I never regretted. In essence I was staring all over in radio and I had to prove that I was not just talented but reliable. Early on, I found out that the Mowbrays were partners with Jerry Robinson who owned the Highline Times Newspaper. It was a symbiotic relationship that served the Highline area well with local news and entertainment. Brian had programmed the station as more music-less talk traditional country station. We segued sets of three records in a row. In between the sets of three we did commercials and brief public service announcements. Brian was a very disciplined programmer. He had no dreams of personal glory. While Brian

was in charge the station did surprisingly well in the Seattle market survey—it actually showed we had a small but measurable portion of the market. When I joined the station in 1972 the station manager was John Mowbray, Brian Calkins was the Operations Manager, and Ray Kelly was the Sales Manager. I and one other announcer were the only non-titular employees. At some point, Brian left KQIN to seek other challenges and I was named program director. I was able to bring in Burl Barter and Don Chambers who were major market quality performers whom I had worked with at KOL and KRKO in Everett respectively. Little KQIN began to sound like a major market station. We also hired Bill Jensen as a sales associate. Bill was young, well educated and dedicated to making radio broadcasting his career. Under Ray Kelly’s tutelage and with his boundless enthusiasm he brought in many new accounts for the station. I changed the programming by adding in some of the current Nashville music that was becoming more and more popular all across the nation. Sales were good and the phones were ringing. I felt the audience was responding so I loosened up on the air. Times were good. I married my wife Atsuko,whom I had brought with me from Japan when I returned to Seattle. We rented a brick Tudor style house with 2.75 acres on Sylvester Road. Life was good. We celebrated our marriage at The

Riverside Inn in Tukwila, which was one of Bill’s accounts. I played golf at Tyee Golf Course, which was one of Ray’s accounts. My wife got a job there in the pro shop as marketing manager. My green fees were free. Then I went to Nashville to the Country Music Association Convention. County music had gone big time all across the nation. I met a little guy named Ben Peyton. He would later become program director of Country KAYO, Seattle’s market leader in country music. They were changing from traditional country music to modern country. Ben called me in 1974 and hired me on one condition: I had to use the name I had used at KXLY in Spokane, KRKO in Everett and KOL and KOL-FM in Seattle. Once again I became Robin Sherwood. Ed Note: Bill Jensen (a star athlete from Enumclaw) worked with Jim Hewett in those days. Bill adds to Jim’s story here. I wanted to work in radio because of my love of music. After three years (’70–’73) in cable-tv as a programmer, I was hired at KQIN on the sales staff. I was guided in part by Ray Kelly and made enough sales and had clients telling me they got a response that I believed in the concept. I left after 13 months for KOL, KVI, KIRO, KHIT, KQIN again as Willie Davis (Green Bay Packer fame) bought it in 1985 and made it a 50,000 watt daytime, 10,000 night station. I left in 1986 after it was sold to Salem Broadcasting I finished my radio career as sales manager with KLSY/KIXI 1987 until 2004. The first run

Jim Hewett, known on radio station KQIN as Robin Sherwood, worked at the Burien station in the ’70s.

with KQIN was quirky. Barbara Mowbray with her spinning wheel going constantly along with being the receptionist. John vacuuming the station in the afternoon when he had nothing else to do. While I received little formal radio sales training both Ray & Jim were great for moral support. I believe without the existence of KQIN and this opportunity my career would have been in something other than radio. For this alone I am grateful. Jim and I continue to stay in touch. —Bill Jensen
