ommissioners of the Ports of Tacoma and Seattle have approved an agreement to form what will be called the “Seaport Alliance� with the idea that streamlining operations and outreach by jointly operating many port functions will bring jobs, cargo and investment dollars to the region by making the ports more competitive in a tough global shipping climate.

Combining operations jumps them to third, although the alliance retains the independence of both port commissions. “They are not changing the government structure,� Tara Mattina, communications director for Port of Tacoma, said. The alliance is an agreement to explore operational streamlining as equal partners under the idea that what is good for one is good for both and good for the region. Revenues and expenses of shared ventures will be split equally. “There is a whole lot of work that needs X See SEAPORT ALLIANCE / page A9

BILLBOARD WORKING GROUP PREPS FOR PRO-BILLBOARD PRESENTATION By Steve Dunkelberger stevedunkel@tacomaweekly.com

The City of Tacoma’s community working group tasked with drafting recommendations regarding the size and location of billboards within the city is methodically gathering information in presentations before the real work begins. The council-appointed group is made up of community members, advertising specialists and industry officials in a way that is meant to be balanced and informed about the pros and cons of billboard advertising through rounds

and rounds of presentations and discussions before any recommendations are crafted. The 18-member group first met in September, with bi-monthly meetings set through February. Draft recommendations would then go to the city’s Planning Advisory Board for another round of review before heading to the City Council next summer. The agenda for the November meeting is filled with a presentation by billboard owner Clear Channel about the benefits and advertising necessity of the large marketing signs to the industry X See BILLBOARDS / page A14

The slate of community forums around Tacoma concerning the city’s biennial budget are done, but there are still plenty of opportunities for people to voice their cheers and jeers about line items before the City Council give it a vote in December. City Manager T.C. Broadnax’s proposed budget is fairly straight forward. It avoids large service cuts and layoffs that came in recent years. The city’s two-year budget totals $3.07 billion, although just $423.3 million falls into the city’s general fund for city services. The rest is dedicated funds for capital projects and Tacoma Public Utilities. The proposed budget calls for money flowing to the city’s reserve to meet the goal of having 15 percent of the general fund in savings. The budget also backfills about 100 of the 200 positions X See BUDGET / page A14

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK

Puyallup and E. ‘K’ Street Tacoma has a tremendous pothole problem, and the city knows it. During the past couple of years, the city has acknowledged this issue by spending millions of dollars in major arterial repairs with the council’s “pothole initiative.� And in 2010, routine maintenance by Tacoma’s Grounds and Maintenance Division completed street repairs on 229,638 square feet of road. In 2011, the city repaired about 150,000 more square feet of roads riddled with holes, and continued those efforts in 2012. And while that may sound like a lot of ground, new holes pop up – or return – each and every day, which means a pothole-free road might never exist in Tacoma. With the help of our readers and our dedicated Pothole Pig, we will continue to showcase some of the city’s biggest and best potholes through our weekly homage to one of T-Town’s most unnerving attributes. Help the Pothole Pig by e-mailing your worst pothole suggestions to SaveOurStreets@tacomaweekly.com. Potholes in need of repair can be reported to the City of Tacoma by calling (253) 591-5495.

‘DICKENSIAN’ SERIES CONCLUDES WITH DEXTER GORDON The annual Dickens Festival will complete its final presentation in the speakers’ series “Dickensian: Poverty in the 21st Century� with Dr. Dexter Gordon, a professor of African American studies and communications at University of Puget Sound. On Thursday, Nov. 6 at 7 p.m. Gordon will speak on the subject of “Poverty, Race and the Search for the American Dream� at King’s Books, 218 St. Helens Ave. Once again Steve and Kristi Nebel will begin the event with a performance of two original songs related to the theme of the series. They play guitar and bass to accompany their vocals. The series was begun this year and arranged by Steve Nebel, one of the Dickens Festival organizers. Says Nebel, “The notion behind this series is that an effort could be made to associate ‘Dickensian,’ as commonly defined by a period in time when there were no social safety nets in England, with American 21st century poverty.� The 10th annual Dickens Festival at Stadium takes place Dec. 5-7.

ting him found,� said Pierce County Det. Ed Troyer. Hoehn has been charged with two counts of rape of a child in the second degree, two counts of child molestation in the second degree, two counts of rape of a child in the third degree, and two counts of child molestation in the third degree. “Once the defendant is arrested, we will be holding him fully accountable and seeking a life sentence in prison,� said Prosecutor Mark Lindquist. Hoehn is 5’5� and weighs 175 pounds. If you know where deputies can find him, call Crime Stoppers of Tacoma-Pierce County at 1 (800) 222-TIPS.

WIDOWER PLEADS FOR RETURN OF LOST WEDDING BAND By David Rose :DVKLQJWRQ¡V 0RVW :DQWHG 4 )R[

A 79-year-old man is hoping someone can help him recover his gold wedding band. He lost it at work at the Emerald Queen Casino in Fife last Thursday. Pamela Panela said her parents had one of those epic love stories. DAVID ROSE They met when her mother was still a teenager in the Philippines. Her father followed her to this country and, years later, finally convinced her to marry him. “She was very kind,� Pedro Panela told Q13 Fox News reporter Tina Patel. “She would do everything for me.� Esperanza Panela died this past summer, after a four-year battle with cancer. When Pamela went through her mother’s things, she found her father’s old wedding ring. He hadn’t worn it in years. “I always told my wife I might lose it or scratch it,� Pedro said. Pamela convinced her father to start wearing the ring again. “I constantly wear my mother’s wedding band,� she said. “I wanted my dad to wear his as well. Something for both of us to have to know she’s always with us.� Last Thursday, Pedro put on the ring and went to work at the Emerald Queen Casino in Fife. A few hours later, it was missing. “I went to the bathroom and noticed my ring was gone already,� he said. Pamela said her father has been losing weight since his wife died. She thinks the ring

It was purchased many, many, many years ago. It’s more the sentimental value of it.� Pedro is hoping someone will find the ring, so he can hold on to at least one part of his great love. “I lost my wife, I lost my ring. it’s so sad.� Crime Stoppers is working with the Puyallup Tribe and Emerald Queen Casino and they are offering a reward for the return of this ring.

Even experienced drivers sometimes make mistakes when it comes to making sure their cars are good to go. Everyone is guilty of driving a few miles with the emergency brake on at least once in their lives. One criminal was a little less aware, forgetting to turn on his headlights in the middle of the night on Oct. 24 while driving down Cushman Avenue. A police officer noticed the suspiciously stealthy car and pulled the driver and two passengers over. It turns out headlights weren’t the only essential the driver was forgetting, as the criminal admitted he didn’t have insurance, and neither he nor the other two passengers were wearing seatbelts, truly living on the edge of danger. When the officer ran the names of the three people in the car, one of the passengers even had a warrant for theft. The passenger was transported to Fife jail, and the driver was given citations for driving without headlights on a motor vehicle and operating a vehicle without insurance. Some drunken drivers are identified by their reckless driving on the road, others by their inability to even make it out of the parking lot. This was the case on Oct. 24, when a UWT school patrol noticed a car stuck in a turnabout outside the school on Commerce Street. After attempting to exit three times, the driver appeared to give up and kept his car idling. Police arrived on the scene when the patrol officer approached the man in the car and noticed the smell of booze. When officers asked the man to get out of the car, they found that he could barely stand on his own. After failing the “touch your nose� test six times, police transported the man to Tacoma Police headquarters, where he blew a .198 and .191 on the BAC test, more than double the legal limit. He was then taken to Fife jail without incident. Compiled by Derek Shuck

An estimated one-third of food produced in the world each year goes to waste, according to a 2013 United Nations special report, causing economic, energy and environmental losses of more than $750 billion annually. That startling statistic caught the attention of three communication students at Pacific Lutheran University (PLU), all of whom are members of the school’s awardwinning MediaLab program. Intrigued, the trio began asking questions, conducting research and investigating the problem. Now, after more than a year of research, travel, interviews and production, the result is a new documentary film titled “Waste Not: Breaking Down the Food Equation,� which premieres in Tacoma on Saturday, Nov. 8. “Waste Not� explores the complexities associated with how and why food is wasted, as well as the many ramifications of wasted food. “Through making this film, I’ve had a plethora of experiences that have shaped the way I think about food waste and food in my own life,� said Taylor Lunka, a senior communication major who served as a senior producer. “I

hope people who see the film realize it’s something we can all do something about, and it’s an issue that deserves our attention.� In addition to Lunka, senior communication students Amanda Brasgalla and Olivia Ash spent more than a year traveling across the U.S., Canada and the United Kingdom, conducting nearly 100 interviews with people involved in various aspects of the food system, including several food recovery organizations. “Food waste is an issue that’s becoming widespread across the world, and it’s something everyone can connect to,� Brasgalla said.

“Food recovery organizations have been cropping up all over the world and many government organizations are making the elimination of food waste a top priority in the next five years.� MediaLab is an award-winning program housed within the Center for Media Studies in PLU’s School of Arts and Communication. In its eight years of existence, MediaLab has received multiple recognitions for its documentary films, including one Emmy award, five Emmy nominations, three National Broadcasting Society Awards and a host of other regional, national and international honors.

“Waste Not� is the latest in a series of MediaLab films that have tackled big, highly topical issues such as religion, water, oil and immigration. All of those productions have been supported by PLU’s Wang Center for Global Education and other on- and offcampus organizations such as the School of Arts and Communication, Korean Women’s Association and others. In addition to gaining valuable experiences in filmmaking, the “Waste Not� team also learned a great deal about agriculture, economics, cultural differences and related issues while making the

film. PLU communication professor Robert Marshall Wells, Ph.D., MediaLab’s co-founder and faculty advisor, served as executive producer on “Waste Not.� Wells said the filmmakers’ primary goals are to provoke thought. “I’m hoping that someone who attends this film will come away informed, enlightened or perhaps even shocked,� Wells said. “Minor adjustments in behavior and perspective can go a long way toward solving major problems.� The documentary, 30 minutes in length, premieres at 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 8 at the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts’ Theatre on the Square, located between 9th and 11th Streets on Broadway in downtown Tacoma. Admission is free and the event is open to the public. Those interested in attending are encouraged to RSVP with the desired number of attendees at: ml@plu.edu.

Honoring the Original People By Cris Toffolo Earlier this month, the Seattle City Council took the courageous decision to celebrate Oct. 13 as Indigenous People’s Day. This is a national event, for in making this decision Seattle is showing all of us how to take steps toward renewing our nation and remaking it in a more just and less violent image. Americans descend from many different indigenous and non-indigenous nations and it is often unclear just what defines us as a people. Let me put forth the idea that what many of us share is a history of violence, suffering, oppression and trauma. Sometimes it is seen as impolite in this country to talk politics or religion in social gatherings. So instead we often turn to that most acceptable and completely American question, “So where is your family from? When did your family immigrate to the U.S.?� And those of us with immigration histories quickly and proudly tell our stories, and once we even had a shared pride in being a nation of immigrants, as symbolized by the Statue of Liberty. Taking a deeper look at our shared conversation about our origins, however, we will see a more disturbing truth. Well-known peace studies pioneer Johan Galtung argues that what we typically think of as violence (i.e., rape and murder) is only the tip of the iceberg. For that type of violence sits atop two other, much larger layers, of socio-economic violence (what

Galtung calls “structural violence� and cultural violence.) Many of us know the truth of this claim from our families’ immigration stories. My Italian grandfather came to the U.S. after experiencing the horrific direct violence of WWI: he watched his brother burn to death in a fire bombing raid and he almost died himself as a soldier in that “great� war. The parents of my Italian grandmother had arrived earlier, fleeing the oppressive structural violence of grinding poverty and hunger. So poor were they, that they only ate meat once a year, on Christmas. And the only orange my great-grandmother ever ate as a child was a gift from the mayor, an act of charity that he doled out, again, on Christmas. But like many Americans, I also have ancestors from another country, and from my Dutch side I heard the stories of cultural violence, mixed with direct violence. My great-grandparents left Holland after living through WWII and witnessing the vicious anti-Semitism of the Nazis who told a tale about how Jews were so much lesser than others that it was morally okay to cast them out and kill them. In summary, like so many other Americans, my ancestors came here due to a combination of direct, structural and cultural violence, no one kind worse than another. And yet, our arrival to these shores brought with it the violence of disinheriting and wiping out Native American peoples, the original inhabitants of this land. And along with Europeans also came the horrific institution of slavery, and millions of

involuntary immigrants in the form of Africans in chains. As a result, both Native Americans and African Americans have suffered levels of direct, structural and cultural violence beyond comprehension. Still today these two communities suffer the highest rates of direct violence and crippling poverty, and the deep cultural violence of racism which makes the direct violence and poverty go largely unnoticed by mainstream society. With Seattle’s action we have taken one step toward lessening the cultural violence perpetrated on Native Americans. While this might seem like just a tiny step, it is only by transforming our cultural narrative that we will be able to move on to tackle the other forms of violence that affect us all. With Seattle’s action they have helped us all to begin to see how those of us who live elsewhere could take similar actions, relevant to our own contexts, to heal the wounds that were inadvertently caused by immigrants coming to these shores. It makes it possible to imagine an American narrative in which our shared story is not one of violence but one of shared redemption, of overcoming of injustice and pain. Cris Toffolo writes for PeaceVoice and is Professor and Chair of the Justice Studies Department at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago. She also serves as co-chair of the board of the Peace and Justice Studies Association, and as an officer of the board of the U.S. section of Amnesty International.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, Hurrah for your guest editorial in the Tacoma Weekly on Oct. 17 by Don Brunell (“How about an early Thanksgiving this year?�). Actually I am a native Tacoman but my husband and our children moved to Edmonton in the summer of 1964 as landed immigrants. He was hired to oversee the construction of the Student Union Building at the University of Alberta and then became the manager of the building where we stayed for five years. Your article in the Tacoma Weekly that I picked up today caught me by surprise, and I was shouting hurray, because that has always been my reaction ever since we lived in Edmonton. The U.S. Thanksgiving original date was set at a time when life was simpler, and no one thought about fruit crops or traveling. Just a time to say thanks for what we had. But the early date in Canada quickly caught my thinking because both countries have similar weather patterns, and it gives a wonderful break between two of our most major holidays, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Thanksgiving in October still allows for better weather conditions and traveling from coast to coast. It doesn’t crowd into Christmas shopping, and decorating and mailing of cards and packages (though we already see Christmas decorations in October!), and it means the two celebrations are separated enough to be respected for what they stand for. In addition, it makes sense to have Thanksgiving in the fall when Harvest times are over, a time to be thankful for the fruits of the earth and the hard work of all the people who participated or benefited from the hard work of the spring and summer prior. Today’s Thanksgiving is often the time for sitting around and making plans for Christmas, and swapping recipes and Christmas sales and rushing to get packages, etc. to the post office. Already, the deadline for mailing cards and packages for Christmas keeps creeping back as our population continues to grow, and the U.S. Post Office needs the time to assure those things will arrive on time. For many people, Thanksgiving becomes a hurried secondary celebration. It would be a lovely time if the two holidays were separated much more than they are now and appreciated and respected for what they stand for. Chellis Swenson Jensen Tacoma

The Tacoma City Council has put businesses on notice. Solve your own troubles and discontent or the city will do it for you. Right or wrong, that’s the message. The most recent case of this “activist council� is the passage of the latest Alcohol Impact Area in Tacoma’s Westside. The ordinance passes on Tuesday bans the sale of high-octane malt liquors and fortified wines in the Westside in an effort to reduce the litter, medical and police nuisances created by chronic public inebriation that has direct links to the inexpensive brews The area had been under a voluntary compliance period, but only 39 businesses chose to pull the cheap and chugging brews from their shelves, so the troubles continued. The city already has two other booze-ban areas, so the addition now includes about half of the city. Absent improvement under the voluntary program, the council opted to make it law. And more issues are on the horizon. With increasingly loud and numerous voices for Tacoma to follow Seattle’s lead by requiring paid sick leave and a $15 an hour minimum wage for workers within the city, the council is looking seriously at taking action. Petitioners presented the City Council with some 1,300 signatures calling for a $15 an hour minimum wage. That would mean Tacoma would have the same minimum wage as Seattle, which is 20 percent more expensive. Mayor Marilyn Strickland has been in talks with worker groups and business interests to draft a sick-leave proposal after the budget season closes. The working proposal would require businesses to offer employees at least three paid sick leave days per year, which translates to one hour of leave for every 40 hours worked. Businesses would have to prove they have a paid sick leave policy to obtain a business license. No business or non-profit would be exempt based on size. The effects of these proposals could dramatically change Tacoma’s economic climate that require more than a few talks while gathering signatures or three-minute statements during council public comment sessions. Business groups should take the lead on providing context and insight about something so fundamental to the region’s livelihood and economic health. Sure, everyone wants more money in their wallets and time off when they or their children fall ill. But both proposals have potentially very large pitfalls for the city’s economic health. Companies on the margin could simply fold or move to the suburbs to keep their payroll at the state minimum of $9.47 an hour when it increases 15 cents in 2015. That adds $312 a year to every minimum wager working full time. That rate is already the highest in the nation. Oregon, which is second highest, will have a minimum wage of $9.25 an hour in 2015. Making the economic case that Tacomans can’t survive on $9.47 an hour when that is higher than the minimum wage in the rest of the nation. That said, some economic studies link boosts in minimum wages to increases economic activity and job creation. Whatever the case, businesses and workers would be wise to voice their thoughts on these mandates before they face council action. Because this council will take action.

Dear Editor, I have to ask the authors of “Reject attack on Tacoma’s council-manager system� (Opinion, Oct. 24 TW) where they came up with “The council-manager form of government has served the city well...� I could give them dozens of examples of the city government (under the direction of the city manager) has failed time and again. We are a city that muddles along because the city manager manages a government of bureaucrats lacking vision. Bureaucrats are not elected to carry out new ideas or meet citizen desires and our city council has no power to bring about the changes voters want. The manager-council form of government was invented during a time when many eastern cities were suffering under “big city mayor corruption� and the west wanted to avoid what they were seeing and blamed “politics� for. “Hire a professional!� And that is what Tacoma has done to the detriment of democracy. The manager-council form of government is distrusting of democracy and the people. It is based on – “Voters you are too dumb to elect a good person to run the city but there is a need to have a pretend democracy to make things look legitimate.� Presto! The manager-council government structure. I vote for my council member to make decisions because I think he can. When he is running, I tell him what I want. I don’t want an unelected city manager getting in the way of what me and a majority of my fellow citizens voted to do. I want the council to have the final say on other bureaucrats the head bureaucrat wants to bring on board. I would rather have the council do the hiring in the first place. And as a final note, I believe a survey was done not too long ago showing Tacomans as very dissatisfied with their city government. “Served the city well...� – I think not! William F.

W Temple Beth El enhanced play area. It is set to open next fall and marks only the second major change to the historic Jewish temple since its construction nearly a half-century ago. “This ambitious project is the culmination of a vision to provide a quality Jewish preschool and daycare open to everyone,� said Sarah Rumbaugh, congregation president. “It will be a unique blend of Jewish and secular values and curriculum – a vibrant and exceptional learning experience.� A nationwide search has begun for a center director with an expected start date of January 2015. The preferred candidate will have a master’s degree and administrative experience. “We want to ensure a warm, nurturing environment,� said Rabbi Bruce Kadden. “It will be rooted in Jewish tradition and provide a variety of program options.� The remodel of the classroom area will result in an art room, infant room, kitchen, office, washrooms, a workroom, a preschool and a toddler room. Registration is scheduled to begin in March for children ages 6 weeks to 5 years old. The architect for the project is Marlene Drucker of Gig Harbor. Temple Beth El, a reform synagogue, has a membership of more than 250 families. The history of the synagogue goes back to the 1890s. By the 1960s, the

Jewish community’s reform and conservative temples merged under Rabbi Richard Rosenthal, who died in 1999. The building at 5975 S. 12th St. in Tacoma was built in 1968 and remodeled in 1993. The new center comes mostly as a gift from an anonymous member of the congregation and is part of the synagogue’s strategic plan to serve the greater community, although early childhood education facilities have been under discussion for years. “It has been a bit on the people’s mind for a long time but was on the back burner,� Kadden said. “There seems to be quite a bit of demand for infant care in the community.� While the center will honor Jewish traditions, and religious practices will form the core of the curriculum, the program isn’t being developed for children who are already members of the synagogue. “We certainly expect that not all of the children will be Jewish. I think it will be a nice mix,� Kadden said, noting that only about a third of the students will likely come from the current congregation. “We will need support from the whole community to make this work.� Additional information is available on the temple’s website, www.templebethel18.org.

W Seaport Alliance From page A1

to get done between now and March,� Mattina said. “It is really early.� While both port commissions have approved the alliance agreement in concept, it still must be reviewed by federal regulators. Staffers are now drafting details about responsibilities, organizational options, ways to gauge progress toward stated goals and other issues. While both ports are growing, they are growing more slowly than other ports, largely because of the rise of shipping terminals in British Columbia as shippers seek ways to avoid higher taxes, such as the harbor tax in U.S. ports that can be about $100 per container. “They have a competitive advantage over us, so

this alliance is an effort to change that,� Mattina said. “This is really about coordinating investments.� The alliance will allow, for example, efforts to deepen terminal waters to allow for larger ships in a coordinated way so that the larger ships could come to the region, regardless of the port, any time they desire rather than stage the work independently of each other. Both ports also have already coordinated lobbying efforts on infrastructure issues like the expansion of State Route 167, but their voices just got louder with

the jump in its ranking on cargo traffic. That’s a big deal locally since delays on state highways cost drivers and businesses $858 million in 2013, compared to $845 million in 2011, according to recent studies. That cost breaks down to about $125 per resident. Washington State Department of Transportation studies concluded that congestion in Pierce County costs the average person $950 per year due to wasted time and gas, noting that travel time between Puyallup and Tacoma would improve by 15 percent, saving 13,915 person-hours of travel time per year with the completion of SR 167.

I

t was 1984 and I was inching closer to becoming an 11-yearold. It was one step closer to manhood. It was this year that I began what could certainly be described as a love affair with the new team in town. The Tacoma Stars were the object of my affection and I thought the game offered by the Major Indoor Soccer League (MISL) was absolutely thrilling in the brand-new Tacoma Dome. Within a few years the team had grabbed the attention and hearts of an adoring public here in the City of Destiny and I was easily one of their biggest fans. I had the posters. I knew the roster by heart. I crunched and compiled my own stats. I had the trading cards and posters all over my walls. I thought it would last forever. I can’t recall if it was raining or sunny as my Dad and I walked into the Tacoma Dome on June 20, 1987. I do know for a fact that it was a downpour of despair and pain in my heart as we walked back out later that night. There were 21,728 of us there that night and the Stars were going to beat the Dallas Sidekicks in game seven of the MISL championship and it was going to be the best of times forever. We were the best team in the league, with the best record and the best fans. It was our time. Instead, Dallas rallied at the end to send the game into overtime. As Dad and I watched from perhaps 15 feet behind the goal, Dallas’ Mark Karpun put a foot on a pass from Tatu and slipped the ball past Stars’ goalkeeper Joe Papaleo for the 4-3 win. The Tacoma Dome crowd was in a state of shock and at the moment I felt like my world had crashed in on itself. I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream. I wanted to sock Papaleo in the jaw. To this day I still can find no forgiveness in my heart for Papaleo. I hear he’s a coach over in New York. I’m pretty much hoping his teams never win. He should have stopped that goal. I know, I’m horrible. We made it out to 30 games that season and the next couple of years we still grabbed the Stars seat cushions and headed down to the Dome for several more fun nights. However, the team never found its edge again and several of my favorite players began moving to other teams. It was a slow break-up that left many scars. Financial troubles with the team and with the league caused the Stars to disappear after the 1992 season and the

MISL followed suit. Another trimmeddown Tacoma Stars incarnation returned to town from 2003 to 2013. They didn’t play in the Dome and it failed to make a blip on my radar. Who were these guys? They didn’t know my pain. I just wasn’t ready for another commitment. It was simply too soon. I spent large amounts of time covering high school and premier league outdoor soccer for much of the spring and summer this year. My love of the sport was certainly still there and growing with every match. There was definitely a change taking place deep down inside of me. Like that scene where the Grinch’s heart grows three sizes. Several months ago, I received word of a new indoor soccer league forming in Washington. The Western Indoor Soccer League (WISL) would be making its debut in November and a new Tacoma Stars franchise was going to represent the City of Destiny. I didn’t have to work myself up about it. I was excited. The spell was fading. I’m pretty sure the first person I told about it was my wife Jolene. She’s a real trooper and rarely rolls her eyes or nods off while I bombard her with whatever my sports excitement is at the time. This is the type of key indicator that you have met your soul mate, kids. Pay attention. On Saturday, Oct. 25, the new semi-pro Tacoma Stars (3.0, as they say) was set to host the Seattle Impact, the new professional team from the Major Arena Soccer League in an exhibition (or friendly, as they say in soccer) at the Stars’ home turf inside the Tacoma Soccer Center. It was to be my first indoor soccer match in-person in nearly 25 years and I’ll admit that I was a bit nervous. What if it’s a disappointment? What if nobody shows up? These are the types of questions I like to ask myself before an event, just in case it’s a real stinker. Pay attention, kids. On game night, Jolene and I hopped in the car and made our way through the rain and massive wind storm. As we neared the Tacoma Soccer Center I saw cars in the parking lot – lots of cars. People were here! They had showed up! We parked the car (free) and managed to miss most of the mud puddles before entering the building. Cheery ticket gals were just inside and we picked up our tickets. $10 for adults and $5 for kids is pretty reasonable. The best reserved seats at the Tacoma Dome in 1987 were $10.50. Well done, guys. Jolene and I were then greeted by Stars majority owner Lane Smith, who seemed to be everywhere that night. We

cruised upstairs to the over-21 area and scoped out where we could drop anchor and watch the game. One thing the Tacoma Soccer Center has is a hodge-podge of seating. There are some bleachers, rows of seats, bar stools and tables and it’s definitely first-come, first-served general admission style with a capacity of around 600. I grabbed a Coke and Jolene a beer (hey, I was on the job) and we decided that standing and looking down upon the action was going to be just fine; and it was. The DJ was spinning great music. The two teams were finishing up warm ups and it was just about time to get it on. Following a recorded, but excellent, version of the “Star Spangled Banner,� the music flipped to the Beastie Boys’ “Brass Monkey� and it was time for kickoff. The music faded and it was all action. My heart skipped a beat. It was that love feeling all over again. Just over seven minutes into the match, the Stars’ Duncan McCormick fired home the first goal of the night and the first goal of a new era. McCormick kissed his Stars badge and pointed to his father, former original Tacoma Star, Dick McCormick. Seriously, how cool is that? Seattle was able to maintain some pressure in the first quarter, but it seemed that most of the scoring chances were coming from the Stars. As the period came to an end, the DJ fired-up Madonna’s “Lucky Star� and I found myself dancing a bit. Less than two minutes into the second quarter, Seattle evened-up the score at 1-1 and then it was all Stars for the remainder of the half. Cam Vickers torched a shot three minutes later and the Stars led 2-1. It wasn’t long after this that my lovely wife said to me, “This is kind of like air hockey or foosball.� I laughed a bit and told her she was right. Well, she was, sort of. At the next time out Michael Jackson’s “Beat It� started pumping through the building and things were getting exciting. Tacoma had a free kick and with 3:18 left in the half, Joey Gjertsen took a quick pass and hammered a shot home for a 3-1 Stars lead. Less than a minute later, Chris Raymond found himself one-on-one with Seattle goalkeeper Nate Salverson and rifled the ball between the keeper’s legs for a 4-1 Stars lead that held to the half. At halftime, we got some more refreshments as the kids in attendance took over the playing field and went nuts for a good 10 minutes. Jane’s Addiction X See STARS/ page A13

LINCOLN CLIPS WILSON IN NAIL-BITER FOR 3A NARROWS CROWN By Justin Gimse jgimse@tacomaweekly.com

With the constant rain beating down upon historic Stadium Bowl, the Lincoln fans were screaming for a punt. Some were absolutely beside themselves. Facing fourth and 15 from the Wilson 45-yard line, the Lincoln Abes inexplicably rolled the dice with possibly an undefeated season and 3A Narrows crown on the line Friday, Oct. 24. Up 6-3 with 1:44 remaining in the game, the Abes could have punted the ball. They could have turned it over to the defense. Both defenses had been fantastic and smothering all night. Instead, it was time for a Jordan Kitna deep ball down the right sideline to a doublecovered Jayson Williams. The senior wide receiver went up and over both Ram defenders and came down with the ball at the one-yard line. The Lincoln crowd went nuts in a “we can’t believe you put us through this� sort of way. If it hadn’t been so soaking wet out, it might have been hair-raising. Senior running back Marcus Johnson punched it up the middle on the next play to seal the 12-6 victory. The waterlogged crowd on both sides of Stadium Bowl couldn’t believe what had just transpired in the final 3:43 of this bruiser of a football game. Down by just three points, Wilson took over on their own 26-yard line with a chance to tie or win the game with 3:43 left on the clock. Senior Ram quarterback Julius YatesBrown went for the big one on the first play, launching a deep ball toward the right-center of the field. Lincoln had the solid coverage and Abes sophomore Joey Sinclair nabbed his second interception of the night at the Lincoln 45-yard line. On the next play, freshman running back Tristian Kwon took a hand-off from Kitna and busted it outside for a 15-yard run. It looked like Lincoln might finally have the game under its own control. With three minutes remaining in the game, and first and 10 from the Wilson 40-yard line, Lincoln decided to pass instead of keeping it on the ground and running out the clock. Two Kitna incompletions on first and second down were followed by a five-yard penalty. On third and 15, Kitna hit Williams on a dump pass and the Ram defense swarmed over him at the line of scrimmage. Instead of punting, the Abes went for it all, and cashed in with the 12-6 win in a game they could have easily lost, during the drenched, injury-filled night at Stadium Bowl.

It’s just about playoff time, and several Tacoma-area teams are in the thick of it all. With some favorites and some dark horses among the bunch, it looks to be an exciting race to the state championships.

with Franklin Pierce. The two teams will decide who the first and second seed to the 2A district tournament is on Nov. 1 at the league tourney. The first seed will play North Mason at 5:15 at Franklin Pierce on Nov. 7. The second seed will play Bremerton at 3:30 at Washington High School on Nov. 7.

The two-time defending state 4A champion has taken care of its regular season business and is poised for another run at the title. Bellarmine moves onto the 4A districts and will play against Kentwood, Kent Meridian or Mt. Rainier at 4:15 on Nov. 7 at Kentwood. The Lady Lions will than play at 8 p.m. against either Kentlake, Rogers, Kentridge or Todd Beamer.

The athletic Lady Abes will be the fourth or fifth seed out of the 3A Narrows to move onto the 3A district tournament at Auburn Mountainview. If Lincoln takes fourth, they will face Auburn Mountainview at 2 p.m. and either Hazen or Fort Vancouver at 5:30 p.m. on Nov. 7.

Friday, Oct. 24. Bellarmine can still claim the league title and top seed by defeating Gig Harbor on Halloween by 11 points or more. If Bellarmine wins by less, they will be the second seed from the 4A Narrows. If the Lions lose they would slip to the third seed. The top seed will probably host either Kent Meridian or Todd Beamer. The second seed will probably host Skyline. The third place team will hit the road to face either Kentwood or Federal Way. All games will be Nov. 7 or 8.

The Lady Lions need a little help to advance into the postseason. If Gig Harbor loses to league-leading South Kitsap on Oct. 29, and Bellarmine defeats Stadium on Oct. 30, the Lady Lions will secure the third and final seed from the 4A Narrows to the district tournament where they would face either Federal Way or Tahoma on Nov. 4 at Sparks Stadium at 8 p.m.

The Lady Rams have taken the third seed from the 3A Narrows league. They will face Enumclaw on Nov. 6 at Harry Lang Stadium at 5 p.m.

The Vikings stumbled out of the gate this season, taking some hard losses to powerhouse teams Kentwood, Union and Graham-Kapowsin. Curtis has locked down the third seed from the SPSL South and will travel to either Skyview or Union for the play-in round on Nov. 7 or 8.

Local Restaurants RESTAURANT SPOTLIGHT: ANAHUAC MEXICAN RESTAURANT

By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

T

acomans looking for a bit of authentic Mexican food can find their way to Anahuac Mexican Restaurant, located at 9002 Pacific Ave., for a south of the border taste combined with friendly service. Anahuac is an area in Mexico that was given, it is believed, to the Aztecs by God and manager Arcelia Ramirez hopes that in Tacoma, the name can be a beacon for Mexican culture as well. With dishes from all over the country, Anahuac serves as a cornucopia of Mexican food.

Johnny’s Dock 8>:KL BG 3:<HF:

“This is our theme, to get people to understand our culture’s food,� Ramirez said, “and to call Mexicans here to remember their culture.� Anahuac houses a banquet room for special events. Up to 100 people can revel in Anahuac’s fine Mexican cuisine for birthdays, anniversaries or any other type of celebration. Anahuac offers all the classics including enchiladas and supreme burritos, but for a little bit spicier of a dish, one of Ramirez’ favorites is the Pollo a la Naranja con Chipotle, orange chicken with a kick of chipotle sauce to get your tongue burning. If you’re still hungry after your authentic meal, try several desserts including deep fried vanilla ice cream and homemade flan. Anahuac features a full bar, including traditional Mexican margaritas with flavor choices of strawberry, banana, peach, kiwi, raspberry, blackberry, mango coconut, guava, lemon, passion fruit, Bahama Mama, pomegranate, melon and pineapple.

Christy Martin joins Titan athletics as head coach of the women’s basketball team for the 2014-15 season. Martin comes to TCC from Blue Mountain Community College in Pendleton, Ore., where she spent six years turning a struggling program into the most successful women’s basketball program in BMCC history. In the 2013-14 season, BMCC took third in the NWAC tournament despite losing a topscoring player to injury. Originally from Spokane, Martin is familiar with Tacoma from high school State 4A tournaments, in which she participated both as a player and as an assistant coach. “Having the opportunity to work in a bigger pond with a larger array of local talent was a big draw to Tacoma,� said Martin. “TCC athletics are rich in tradition; I am excited and motivated to help bring Titan WBB back to prominence in the NWAC.� Martin believes in developing strong student-athletes who hold themselves to high academic standards and give back to the community. “My fundamental vision will always be excellence, both in the classroom, the community and during competition. Finding new and different mechanisms to achieving this is part of the challenge. The end goal is producing a program that our Titan community will be proud of.�

Willamette took the opening kickoff and drove down the field for an early lead, but from that point on it was all Pacific Lutheran as the Lutes broke a 44-year-old program record with 686 yards of total offense in a 56-14 Northwest Conference football victory over the Bearcats Saturday, Oct. 25 at Sparks Stadium. Going against a dangerous power rushing team following a disappointing road loss last weekend, the Lutes rebounded in the most dominant way possible on Saturday. Willamette picked up 75 yards on its first drive to take a 7-0 lead and added 64 yards on its final drive late in the fourth quarter, but the PLU defense limited the Bearcats to 151 yards in between as the Lutes out-gained the Bearcats 686 to 290. Northwest Conference leading rusher Dylan Jones broke a 57-yard run on the third play from scrimmage as Willamette opened the game with five consecutive running plays leading to a touchdown. The Lutes responded with a five-play, 75-yard drive of their own capped by a 47-yard scoring pass from Dalton Ritchey to Kyle Warner to tie it up less than five minutes into the game. From there the PLU defense stepped up and the offense never let up as the Lutes scored on every drive except their final possession before halftime, when a missed field goal sent PLU into the break, up 28-7. The Lutes came right back out in the second half and scored a touchdown on their first drive of the second half before a fourth-down stop in their next possession included the only missed third-down attempt of the day for PLU, not counting quarterback kneels at the end of the game. Officially, PLU converted 11 of 13 third-down attempts while holding Willamette to 1-of-9 on third down. The Lutes held possession for more than 40 minutes, including more than 22 minutes in the second half. PLU finished the day with 26 first downs to 11 for Willamette and put together 343 yards on the ground and 343 through the air. Ritchey put up the best game of his collegiate career, completing 15 of 22 pass attempts for 302 yards and five touchdowns while rushing for 130 yards on 14 carries and another score. Niko Madison tallied a game-high 136 rushing yards and a touchdown, while Warner caught two passes for 111 yards and a score. Lucas Sontra caught three passes for 47 yards and three scores. Fernando Barrett added one big catch: a 43-yard scoring grab. The PLU defense posted a balanced effort, with 20 different players picking up at least one tackle. Joel Teats and Travis McCarthy tied for the team lead with six tackles apiece, while Chase Houser and Cody Tupen each had a sack. PLU’s 56 points marked the highest point total since a 62-14 win over Puget Sound in 2001, and also marked the most points the Lutes have ever scored against Willamette. The Lutes’ 686 yards easily surpassed the previous program record of 653 set in a 47-0 win against Whitworth in 1970. The win improves PLU’s record to 4-2 overall and 2-2 in conference play, while Willamette falls to 4-2 overall and 2-2 in the NWC. PLU returns to action Saturday, Nov. 1 when the Lutes travel to face crosstown rival Puget Sound at Baker Stadium at 1 p.m.

The Puget Sound football team kept pace during the first half at Whitworth, but the Pirates came away with a 62-30 conference win on Saturday, Oct. 25 in Spokane. The Loggers (3-3, 2-2 NWC) grabbed a 7-0 lead midway through the first quarter when Connor Savage blocked a 35-yard field goal attempt by Whitworth, and Brent McCoy scooped up the loose ball and returned it 80 yards for the touchdown. The Pirates (5-3, 3-2 NWC) evened the score in their ensuing possession after quarterback Bryan Peterson connected with Duke Degaetano for a 40-yard touchdown. Whitworth quickly regained possession after Braden Foley threw an interception that allowed the Pirates to start their next drive at the Logger 17-yard line. It took just one play for Whitworth to claim a 14-7 lead as Peterson hit Avega Siolo for a touchdown. The Loggers responded with a 77-yard drive that concluded with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Foley to Brennan Schon to tie the game at 14-14 late in the first quarter. The Loggers grabbed a 16-14 lead halfway through the second quarter when Doug Owusu sacked Peterson in the Whitworth end zone for the safety. Sawyer Petre’s 45-yard punt put the Pirates at their own six-yard line, and the Logger defense swarmed a rush attempt for a loss of five yards to set up Owusu’s safety. Both sides traded possessions a few times before the Pirates regained the lead at 21-16 thanks to Peterson’s 26-yard touchdown pass to Connor Williams with 2:43 left in the first half. Hans Fortune came in under center for Puget Sound, and he was intercepted on the Loggers’ ensuing drive. Whitworth took advantage of the short field as another passing touchdown by Peterson gave the Pirates a 28-16 lead. Fortune and the Loggers bounced back, though, as it took only 62 seconds for Puget Sound to march 80 yards on seven plays, the last of which was an eight-yard touchdown pass to Dustin Harrison. The Loggers trailed just 28-23 at halftime.

The Pirates exploded for five touchdowns in the second half, including one score on a 97-yard interception return in the third quarter. “We let ourselves down in all three aspects of the game,� said Puget Sound head coach Jeff Thomas. “But you have to give credit to Whitworth for playing at a high level and earning this victory.� Tanner Diebold’s one-yard run touchdown run late in the fourth quarter accounted for Puget Sound’s lone score of the second half. Senior wide receiver Kevin Miller caught 10 passes for the Loggers, marking his third double-digit reception game of the season. On the defensive side of the ball, Max Mirande led all players with 13 tackles to go along with a sack and a forced fumble. The Loggers look to bounce back when they host crosstown rival Pacific Lutheran on Saturday, Nov. 1. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m.

Looking to avenge last month’s five-set loss in McMinnville, the 19th-ranked Pacific Lutheran volleyball team did just that Saturday, Oct. 25, sweeping Linfield in a Northwest Conference match at Names Family Court at PLU. Pacific Lutheran improved to 17-4 overall and 10-2 in conference play with the win, maintaining its tie atop the standings with Whitworth. Linfield fell to 8-9 overall and 7-5 in the NWC. The Lutes return to action Friday, Oct. 31 and will host Lewis & Clark at 7 p.m. NCAA Div. III digs leader Amber Aguiar finished with 27 digs to tie for the fifth-most in PLU history in a threeset match, while Samantha North tallied 36 assists. Kylai Cooley posted a match-best 11 kills to go with nine digs, and Lucy Capron picked up a double-double with 10 kills and 12 digs. PLU took an early 8-3 lead in the opening set, but Linfield battled back to tie it up at 11-11 and kept the run going to take a 15-13 lead following a kill by Molly McTaggart. That prompted a PLU timeout, and the Lutes responded with seven consecutive points to turn the twopoint deficit into a 20-15 lead following a service ace by Taylor Komagome. A service error ended the run and Linfield pulled back to within three at 22-19, but PLU closed out the 25-20 set win on an error by the Wildcats. The second set was a back-and-forth contest that saw six lead changes and 14 tie scores. Linfield held the largest lead in the set following an attack error by the Lutes that gave the Wildcats a 19-16 advantage. A Wildcat error sparked three straight points by PLU to tie it up at 19-19 and following a tie at 20-20 the Lutes didn’t trail the rest of the way. The Wildcats fought off PLU’s first set-point effort with a kill by Barrie, but PLU closed out the 25-23 win on a kill by Amy Wooten. PLU made it a little easier in the final set, hitting a match-best .286 while never relinquishing the lead. The Lutes built an early 9-5 lead and maintained the four-point advantage through to 15-11 before Linfield used a 7-4 run to pull within one point after scoring three straight. PLU took a timeout, and just like in the first set, the Lutes followed with a dominant stretch of scoring as PLU scored the final six points and capped the match victory with a kill by Capron. The Lutes hit .194 for the match while limiting Linfield to a 0.78 attack percentage. PLU has four matches remaining in the regular season, with the first three at home before the regular season finale at Willamette on Nov. 7.

Four different Loggers scored and Liz Blonden tallied two assists as the Puget Sound women’s soccer team beat George Fox on the road Sunday, Oct. 26, 4-0. All four goals were scored in the second half. The win allows Puget Sound to keep pace with Pacific Lutheran, as the crosstown rivals are tied for first place in the Northwest Conference. Annie Prickett’s second goal of the season gave the Loggers (13-3, 11-2 NWC) a 1-0 edge less than five minutes into the second half, and Puget Sound continued the offensive onslaught during the period. Jacquelyn Anderson buried her first goal of the season off a cross from Blonden in the 58th minute, and Cassie Winter headed in her fourth goal of the year off a pass from Blonden in the 72nd minute. Robin Vieira netted her fifth goal of the season, and second in as many games, in the 88th minute. Annie Jonsson assisted on the score. Lauren Thomas needed just two saves to record her fourth-consecutive shutout. Thomas and the Logger defense have held opponents scoreless eight times this season. The Loggers and the Lutes battled for NWC supremacy at Pacific Lutheran on Wednesday, Oct. 29.

For the first time in Pacific Lutheran’s last six women’s soccer matches against Lewis & Clark, the contest did not go to double-overtime. The Lutes didn’t need extra time on Sunday, Oct. 26, with Machaela Graddy’s first-half goal standing up to give PLU the 1-0 Northwest Conference victory at Griswold Stadium. Pacific Lutheran improved to 12-3-1 overall and 10-2 in conference play, with both win marks representing significant milestones for the Lutes. PLU’s 12 overall wins this year are the most since 1995, and the Lutes’ 10 conference wins tied the 1987 team for the most ever. “Today was a different challenge playing a fresh team that didn’t have a game yesterday,� PLU head coach Seth Spidahl said. “Lewis & Clark is a good team that competes really hard, which was evident by how they played today. With that being said, I’m very proud of our team today. They played like warriors!� The Lutes got on the board with the eventual gamewinner in the 25th minute of play, as Emily Hanna took the ball down the left sideline before lobbing a pass over a defender to Graddy on the right side of the box. Graddy took the ball to the left of Pioneer goalkeeper Geena Fong and knocked it in for her fifth goal of the season. Both teams had opportunities to add to the goal total, with a combined 14 shots on goal in the match. PLU finished the day with a 14-10 shot advantage, and the Lutes forced Fong to make eight saves. Graddy totaled four shots on goal, while Hanna added a pair. Takara Mitsui made five saves to earn her 10th shutout of the season. The Lutes claim their fourth consecutive win over Lewis & Clark, sweeping the season series for the second straight season. PLU returned home Wednesday, Oct. 29 for the final home match of the 2014 season, as the Lutes hosted cross-town rival and NWC co-leader Puget Sound. The two teams were tied atop the NWC standings with 30 points and identical 10-2 conference records.

and Run DMC were setting the tone through the speakers and people were having some serious fun. The third quarter was all Seattle. Former Bellarmine standout Micah Wenzel scored less than two minutes in to pull Seattle within two at 4-2. Two minutes later, Vincent McLuskey got them within one with another goal. It was shortly after this that my wife began fishing around in her purse for her lipstick. As she looked up a deflection sent the soccer ball square into the safety netting and whacked her in the forehead. She laughed

and shook her head. Her eyes looked clear and she could count the fingers I held up. The guys around us had a good time razzing me for not moving her or stopping the ball. Frankly, I don’t think my “it’s coming this way� thought had even finished registering by the time the ball beaned Jolene. She’s looking for lipstick and I’m the horrible husband. The cross I must bear. First fan hit in the head in the new Tacoma Stars era – my wife. Former Stadium star Jamael Cox tied the game up at 4-4 shortly before the end of the third quarter. I began thinking that there was no way the Stars could lose on a night like this. Everything was going so well, but I had had that feeling before years ago in the Tacoma Dome. The break music was “Devil Inside� by

INXS and it got me dancing again. Everything was going to be fine. It took nearly seven minutes, but things indeed were going to be fine as McCormick knocked in his second goal of the night and the Stars led 5-4. Three minutes later, Vickers netted his second of the night and the Stars led 6-4. With time winding down, Seattle pulled their goalkeeper to add an extra attacker and they paid for it. Stars keeper Aaron Anderson scooped up the ball and tossed the ball toward the open Seattle goal. The ball bounced just before the third line, making it legal, and the ball rolled in for an outrageous empty-netter and the crowd went ballistic. The Tacoma Stars win 7-4. As the scoreboard hit zero, the DJ started up some more Michael Jackson. I began thinking to myself that this isn’t exactly

how games ended at the old Stars games. As the thought ended, so did the music and the familiar, victorious sounds of Irene Cara’s “What a Feeling� shot down my spine. They pulled it off. I’ll always miss the old days, but those Stars are never coming back. I’m already sold and a fan of these new Tacoma Stars. The soccer is awesome, the players are local sons and the environment is straight-up Grit City. Jolene is ready for the next game and this time we’ll be bringing Dad along. He’s going to love it. The Tacoma Stars open WISL play on Saturday, Nov. 15 when they host Bellingham United at 7:30 p.m. Go to TacomaStars.com for ticket info and start making plans. The boys are back in town.

In the first quarter, Wilson drove to the Lincoln nine-yard line and faced first and goal. The Abes defense would not let them past the four-yard line and Rams sophomore kicker Alek Greenleaf knocked through a 21-yard field goal for a Wilson 3-0 lead with 6:52 left in the quarter. Lincoln answered with 47.2 seconds left in the first quarter facing third and goal from the nine-yard line. Kitna scrambled left and hit junior receiver Tony Archie flashing toward the end zone sideline. Archie got one toe down and following an unsuccessful two-point conversion the Abes led 6-3. Twice the Rams were turned away from the scoreboard in the second and third quarter. In the second quarter Greenleaf came up short on a 45-yard field goal attempt. Facing fourth and goal from the Lincoln two-yard line, Wilson went for the tie and brought out Greenleaf. The kicker’s 17-yard attempt was blocked and the 6-3 lead was preserved. Wilson’s senior linebacker duo of Billy Greer and David Shin led a Ram defense that kept Lincoln nearly 43 points under its regular average. The Rams pressured Kitna throughout the night and sacked him 10- times. The undefeated, fifth-ranked Lincoln Abes (6-0, 8-0) secured at least a share of the 3A Narrows title, but more importantly earned the top seed from the Narrows. The Abes will host a team from the Metro League. Possible opponents are Bishop Blanchett or Rainier Beach on Nov. 7 or 8. The Wilson Rams (4-2, 6-2) have secured the fourth seed into the playoffs, and can win the third seed with a victory over Central Kitsap on Thursday, Oct. 30. At the moment, a win could mean a road game against Garfield. A loss and the fourth seed may equal a road trip to Roosevelt or O’Dea. Either match-up will be held on Nov. 7 or 8.

and to its clients. The meeting is set for 4 p.m. on Nov. 20 at the Center for Urban Waters, 326 E. ‘D’ St. The meeting is open to the public. The working group process is a way for the city and Clear Channel to resolve their ongoing battle regarding billboards, which is still chugging its way through the legal process. Clear Channel wants fewer limits on billboard size and loca-

tion, while residents want tighter restrictions to protect their scenic views and control “visual pollution.� “It is a big challenge for this group,� said Principal Planner John Harrington. The city is now home to 318 billboards at 173 locations. That number and allowable locations will change, and digital billboards Clear Channel had proposed aren’t under discussion. “That’s clear,� Harrington said. “Digital billboards are off the table.� The task now is to draft zoning rules that Clear Channel and Tacoma residents can accept.

W Budget From page A1

cut during previous budget years, largely from shifting payroll expenses from grant awards to general fund expenses. The draft spending plan also boosts efforts toward street repairs, deferred maintenance work and facility improvements as well as adds to the city’s

reserve account. Key projects are noticeably left unfunded in the budget to show that adding them will mean cuts elsewhere or new dollars flowing into the budget from elsewhere. Projects not funded in the budget but likely to be added at the cost of other items include $5 million for a community center on the East Side, $10 million to $15 million in Link expansion funding

and $5 million to $10 million for the city’s historic theaters. On the revenue side, one option is to begin collecting a $2.25-a-month fee from city residents to help cover the $3 million a year the city spends on fire hydrant inspections and upkeep. Four new staff will also be added to track businesses that are avoiding business and occupation taxes, as well. That could bring in $1.3 million. The Tacoma Weekly sent e-mails to the eight City Council members and to Mayor Marilyn Strickland seeking comment about their impressions of the budget process, community forums and the unfunded projects. Only Councilmembers Robert Thoms and Anders Ibsen responded by deadline. “I appreciate you asking, and my thoughts to date have been core services, infrastructure and promoting (University of Washington-Tacoma) growth and waterfront enhancements to garner trust from citizens that the city is capable of doing big and important projects,� Thoms wrote. “I intend to fight for essential investments in core services such as reducing crime and historic investments in our roads and infrastructure– quality of life issues that I believe encourage businesses to locate here.� Ibsen took the role of elder statesman, although he is the youngest on the council. “We’ve come a long way since the last budget, and I think my constituents have appreciated the transparency and professionalism behind both budget processes,� he wrote. “While not directly relating to those major key spending pieces, one of my priorities for the budget is examining opportunities for removing duplication between different sections of city government. For example, both the General Government and Tacoma Public Utilities have their own Government Relations and Public Relations offices. TPU established their own separate lobbying office around 2008 – prior to this year, they shared these services with General Government. These are millions of dollars that could be re-directed towards services that directly benefit ratepayers instead. Moreover, having two redundant communications and lobbying offices means that General Government and TPU sometimes send mixed messages, increasing confusion and inefficiency. The budget is a reflection of our values, so any added transparency and accountability is good for the community as well as for fiscal reasons.�

Jet City Comic Show set to take over Convention and Event Center By Ernest A. Jasmin

ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

alloween is today, but – pffffft! – that’s amateur night. The real costume party will kick off on Nov. 8, when the fifth annual Jet City Comic Show takes over the Tacoma Convention and Event Center. Jet City drew an estimated 2,000 comic book fans last year, after relocating from Seattle; and organizers expect nearly twice as many to show up next weekend for a bigger, better showcase of geek chic. Collectors will be able to get their books signed by some of the biggest names in the comics biz, the likes of “Hack/Slash” creator Tim Seeley, “Fantastic Four” artist Paul Ryan and “Hate’s” Peter Bagge. Novelist and screenwriter Peter Beagle will be on hand to discuss “The Last Unicorn,” and scifi fans will swoon over Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch, stars of the original, 1970s version of “Battlestar Galactica.” But, all those bigshots aside, people watching is one of the biggest draws to events like the Jet City Show. The Northwest has a thriving “cosplay” community, an army of comic book, anime and video game enthusiasts that spend hours and hundreds of dollars making elaborate replicas of their favorite characters’ costumes.

The hobby has grown from a nerdy, guilty pleasure and into a mainstream craze, as is evident when swarms of Groots, Yoshis and Imperial Stormtroopers take over downtown Seattle during Emerald City Comic Con, Sakura-Con or GeekGirlCon. Between events, cosplayers stay connected through dozens of fan sites and a few shows, like web series “Cosplay Boom,” that have sprung up in recent years. “Cosplay is becoming really popular,” Jet City Comic Show co-founder James Taylor said. “It’s one way for fans to become part of the show almost. This year, we’ve had e-mails from celebrity cosplayers from across the country wanting to be guests, but we didn’t go that route ‘cause we’ve got a great community here already.” As if you needed more incentive to don your best cape and tights, Taylor and company are offering prizes for the most creative costumes on Nov. 8, up to $100 for adults and $50 in the kids’ category. So we turned to a few veterans of the regional cosplay scene to inspire you in making your own getups. But get to sewing, people.

Amanda Wan’s cosplay obsession started with the “Star Wars” guys. While studying costume design at Western Washington University in 2001, she fell in with Alpha Base Rebel Legion and the 501st Legion, local groups known for showing up at public events dressed like George Lucas’ classic characters. “That was kind of the rise of cosplay,” the 33-year-old Issaquah resident recalled. “If you went to Seattle Comic Con, the only people who showed up in costumes at first were a few stormtroopers. … But now it’s just like everyone PHOTO BY SAMMY NG goes in costume.” Amanda Wan in barWan’s specialty is video game characters.

NITTY GRITTY DIRT BAND PLAYS THE PANTAGES NOV. 7 By Glenn Casebeer Special to Tacoma Weekly

According to multi-instrumentalist John McEuen, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band could have spent the last 48 years out on the road, bringing their music to scores of fans around the country. But families and business need attending to sometimes these days, though these guys mix business with pleasure whenever they get the chance. They’ll be bringing that show and their legendary band to the historic Pantages Theater in Tacoma on Friday, Nov. 7. The band got its start in Southern California back in the 60’s and McEuen replaced Jackson Browne in 1966 but they wanted to be part of what was happening in Nashville, so this group of hippies that basically invented the jam-band genre headed east. McEuen reflects, “I think it was like, the desire to be one of them, which is to say, one of them that made old records. People like to be able to say that they made old records. “Mr. Bojangles” now is in the Grammy Hall of Fame; it’s considered an old classic record. I sometimes can’t believe I’m on it. I made an old record.” He continues, “You want to make things that stand the test of time, and you didn’t always know if it could or would, but you gotta give it a shot. I think the main thing with The Dirt Band is, at various times, each member gets to display whatever tricks they may have. Which means, one guy has a

song he wants to sing, or one guy has a harmonica thing he wants to play for two minutes, this guy’s gonna play the banjo

or fiddle, maybe this guy should sing this hit record that was on the radio. There’s not just one particular view point.” The band certainly had its shares of ups and downs in the early days, in fact they went through a dry spell of several albums before striking it big with the iconic “Mr. Bojangles.” McEuen explains, “It was definitely an uphill struggle until the fifth album, to get to ‘Mr. Bojangles.’ The Dirt Band had a minor hit, made four albums, did the movie ‘Paint Your Wagon,’ broke up for a few months, got back together, made a fifth album, and it changed things. And that was followed by ‘Will the Circle Be Unbroken’, and that was followed by a live album that did incredibly well.” The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band was one of the first bands to successfully get a country song way up on the pop charts and he explains their crossover appeal. “It’s insane. When we first started, Hendrix and Zeppelin and Stones and ’50s music and stuff were still popular, and then here comes this group of hippies from

Southern California that didn’t have a plan other than to define music that other people weren’t playing, and it is a real pleasant occurrence that it’s still happening 48 years later. We were basically the hippie jam band of the early ‘70s. But the difference being, when we did a Hank Williams song, nobody had heard of Hank Williams, and if we did a Buddy Holly song, we had to tell people, ‘This is a Buddy Holly song! Now here’s one of ours!’” McEuen also discusses the differences in the music business these days and he says, “It’s a huge topic, but you could safely say that every decade or so the music business goes through a massive change in one way or another, and that’s what’s happened since the first songs were made. Then records came along and then ownership of the music changed. Edison didn’t think that songwriters should get paid, all sorts of complicated things. But the basic thing that hasn’t changed is that people still like to hear their favorite old songs that connect them to a good part of their lives, and they like to hear new good things that hopefully connect them to a good part of their lives now, and there’s always room for new music. The basic changes are that it’s harder to get attention for the new music.” A smile comes to McEuen’s face as he describes a Dirt Band concert these days. “I think one of the fun things about the Dirt Band is when someone brings someone that doesn’t know them or isn’t familiar, and they will often say to the person that brought them, ‘I didn’t know they did that song.’ And that happens. ‘Oh, they sound like the people that did that song.’ ‘Oh, honey, it is them.’ And the audience has people all the way down to 10 years old singing the lyrics to some of them. It’s fantastic.” He continues, “It’s been a good year. There’s been a strange thing lately, where we seem to be attracting more people in the last couple years, both new and people that will be like, ‘Oh, I haven’t seen you in 30 to 40 years!’ There aren’t that many people that can come around and say to a band that they haven’t seen them in 30 to 40 years, and there’s not that many bands that will have fans that were born in our 25th year, ‘ya know? The old hippies are coming up in their BMWs to see a good show. And they are holding up an iPhone 6 or whatever instead of a Bic lighter or a match.”

TWO UPS ART PROFESSORS DAZZLE THE EYE AT KITTREDGE By Dave R. Davison

CULTURE CORNER

A GUIDE TO THE MUSEUMS OF TACOMA

Museum of the Week: Tacoma Art Museum

dave@tacomaweekly.com

University of Puget Sound’s Kittredge Gallery is currently showing work by two of its associate professors of art: Janet Marcavage and Elise Richman. Entitled “Ripple and Unfold: Recent Work by Janet Marcavage and Elise Richman,” the show consists of the work of both artists (paintings, drawings, prints and photos) shuffled together throughout the gallery. Marcavage does complex, silkscreen prints of striped fabrics that are draped and folded or piled up. Richman is a painter who, in the current series, explores ripples made by droplets on the surface of water. The result is a show that dazzles the eye with colorful stripes, circles and spirals. One might fancy, on first glance, that this is a show of “op art” or “pop art.” Both artists should be well known to Tacoma art viewers. Marcavage has been featured in Woolworth Windows and had work in “Ink This!” – the show of Northwest prints that recently came to a close at Tacoma Art Museum. Richman’s works have been exhibited around town as well. She is the 2014 winner of the Greater Tacoma Community Foundation’s Foundation of Art Award. While distinctive, the works of the two artists reside in harmony with one another. The works have a geometric, abstract nature yet they are rooted in observed phenomena. Marcavage is fascinated in the “topography” of textile patterns as they take on the forms of objects over which they are draped: a table, a girl or a laundry heap. The simplicity of the repeated pattern of the textile is countered by the complexity of the various folds and curves of the cloth. Her multicolored silkscreen prints of these configurations

of textiles are unfailingly attractive to the eye. Richman approaches painting in the spirit of experimentation and discovery of the Renaissance. Her studio takes on the nature of a laboratory as she experiments with the ways in which various materials flow together. She explores a variety of pigments and binding media (including natural pigments). For the current series, Richman used a wave tank and shot photos of drops hitting the water. Richman’s contribution to the show includes charcoal drawings and big, textured paintings in dry pigments that are mixed with walnut oil to form rich, thick blends of moody color often with a crackle finish. There is

also a charming set of small panels done with thin washes of acrylic and ink (almost pastel colors) and given a glossy finish. Both artists have a cerebral, philosophical approach to their work, yet the results possess a punch that draws viewers in. The show includes a batch of the pencil drawings that shows the starting point for Marcavage’s prints. There are also some of the murky and mysterious digital photos that have come out of Richman’s studio experiments with the wave tank. “Ripple and Unfold” runs through Nov. 15. For further information visit pugetsound.edu/Kittredge or call (253) 879-3701.

In conjunction with Tacoma’s “Metal-Urge” event, “Protective Ornament: Contemporary Amulets to Armor” showcases approximately 80 wearable works in metal – including helmets, brass knuckles, breastplates, aggressive or defensive jewelry, chain mail, amulets, talismans and protective gear – designed to address issues of protection and empowerment in the face of everyday perils and social challenges. Ranging from protective hardware (physical fortification) and protective “software” (faith-based adornment), the array of contemporary works underlines the crucial safeguarding function of jewelry and other wearable ornaments. “Protective Ornament: Contemporary Amulets to Armor” was organized by the Metal Museum in Memphis, Tenn. The exhibition was curated by Suzanne Ramljak, editor of Metalsmith magazine.

Northwest in the West: Exploring Our Roots Through Fall 2015

Are there really connections between Northwest art and western art? “Northwest in the West” draws from the museum’s Northwest art collection to look at how the character of the western United States has shaped regional artistic responses. Though geographically part of the West and an important chapter in the story of the American West, the Northwest has developed a distinct identity in part through adopting, adapting or reacting against these western roots, a constantly shifting relationship reflected at the heart of the work of a number of the region’s artists.

In an age a long, long time ago, there was this thing in theatrical performances and literary works called “a plot.� This now endangered species is much like a storyline, but not the same. A storyline is just the narrative of a work, whether of fictional or nonfictional basis. A plot is the events and actions as they play out throughout the work. The distinc-

tion is only subtle to the unwashed in such matters. But there is a difference. The storyline of Tacoma Little Theatre’s production of “Dial ‘M’ for Murder,� by Frederick Knott, and directed by Pug Bujeaud, is that a woman kills an intruder in her home and is then put on trial. The plot is that her husband set it all up in a scheme to off her. This suspense-filled thriller inspired Alfred Hitchcock to film the 1954 movie of the same name that starred Ray Milland, Grace Kelly and Robert Cummings. The storyline follows retired professional tennis star Tony Wendice (played by Brent Griffith) and his wife, Margot (Deya Ozburn). Tony likes her money and wants to keep it for himself. So he plots to hire an old-school chum Captain Lesgate (Chris Rocco) to follow an elaborate and alibi-creating set of actions to off the missus. All goes wrong, however, when Margot kills Lesgate in a struggle. Tony retools his plan on the fly and frames his wife for the murder of the man he hired to kill her. It works for a while. Then the limelights go dark. What makes this play, also featuring Jacob Tice as Max Halliday and Robert Geller as Inspector Hubbard, so chillingly solid is, first off, the script, with myriad

turns and detailed nuances that keep audiences gripped to every word out of fear they will miss a crucial statement. Toss in the solid English accents by the cast, the simple but effective set, costume and lighting designs as well as the natural flow of the direction and the drama is complete. Audiences are flies on the wall to a murder plot gone bad. The only issue, albeit a slight one, is the casting. If I ruled the stage for this show, Griffith would have played the role Halliday, the wife’s boy on the side. That would have freed up Tice to play the plotting husband. His natural, clean-cut stage presence juxtaposing the husband’s psychopathic scheme would have pegged out the creepy meter. Griffith did well, excellent in fact. Leveling a building with an artillery round still works, but destroying that same building with a nuclear missile makes a statement. Such is the case with this casting. “Dial ‘M’ for Murder� runs at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays as well as at 2 p.m. on Sundays through Nov. 9. This show is recommended for ages 12 and up. Tickets are $15 to $22 and may be purchased online at www. tacomalittletheatre.com, or (253) 272-2281. The theater is located at 210 N. I St.

THREE AMIGOS. TR3 is (L-R) Dan Martier, Tim Reynolds and Mick

Vaughn. The trio will headline Jazzbones with songs from their new album “Like Some Kind of Alien Invasion� on Nov. 8.

By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

Tim Reynolds wishes he could clone himself right about now. The critically acclaimed musician has spent the last several months either on the road with Dave Matthews Band, flying back and forth between his home in North Carolina and Seattle to record the follow-up to the DMB’s last CD release “Around the World,â€? or hitting the road in support of his main band, TR3’s newest album, “Like Some Kind of Alien Invasion.â€? “For the foreseeable future, we’ll just kind of be plugging away at this record and touring as much as possible,â€? said Reynolds, who will bring TR3 – also drummer Dan Martier and bassist Mick Vaughn – to Jazzbones on Nov. 8. “I’m ready to work on future projects,â€? he said. “I’ve got acoustic songs, and I’d still like to make another acoustic record. But, right now, I’m just kind of focusing on getting the rest of this year done. It’s a pretty heavy schedule with touring and in the studio with DMB. ‌ But I’m just grateful I can still do my own thing and get it out there ‘cause that’s something I need to do, for sure.â€? Reynolds has been doing his own thing with TR3 for longer than the Dave Matthews Band has been together. He formed the first incarnation of the

band in 1984, and he would play with future DMB members Carter Beauford and the late Leroi Moore. Matthews moved to Charlottesville, Va., the birthplace of DMB, in 1987, and he tended bar at a venue where Reynolds would play. He reportedly told Matthews, “I’ve got a band, and I kind of like the way it is. You should start your band.� Over the years, TR3 has been Reynolds’ main project, but he’s become known as a frequent collaborator with Matthews, with whom he recorded the live albums “Live at Luther College,� “Live at Radio City,� “Live in Las Vegas,� “Live Trax Vol. 23� and “Live Trax Vol. 24.� He has also been featured on several DMB albums, and has been an official member of the band since last year. TR3 specializes in a trippy, frenetic blend of prog-rock, funk and psychedelia. On “Alien Invasion,� Reynolds distills a wide range of influences – everything from the Godfather of Soul to ‘80s industrial music – and the end result is quite funky. He points to the song “Dracula� as one of the tracks that set the tone. “The lick from ‘Dracula’ came about when I was playing along with a Ministry record,� he said. “We started out with a certain kind of groove that just wasn’t hittin’ it for me. So I kind of went into groove research. What are some grooves that I really

like that I would like to make this song (like) that groove?� So ‘Dracula was (influenced by) listening to James Brown’s ‘Super Bad.’� TR3 started writing for the record in 2012, he said, and many songs evolved drastically over the next two years. “I really love it when your body thinks it feels a rhythm, then all of a sudden it goes into 4-4 or 3-4,� Reynolds said. “I love that kind of suspended feeling – oh, what’s going on here. But then again, I also really love if there’s just a groove all the way through (like) James Brown. You could just go off and name a billion artists that do that, like Bob Marley – some of the greatest (stuff) ever. So it’s like let me write with that in mind, at least on some level, ‘cause I like groove music.� The TR3 show starts at 8 p.m. on Nov. 8.

ARIES (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19) When we take pride in our work it shows a strength in our character. Pride can also be destructive, causing or preventing us to do things that may not be in our best interest. This week’s full moon urges you to not let stubborn pride rule your decisions. Look at the bigger picture.

LIBRA (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22) The art of divination may leave you with answers to many questions. This week’s full moon urges you to seek the truth. Visit a physic fair or ask a friend if he or she would recommend someone that may help you find clarity. Which would you rather have – a trick or a treat?

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20) This week’s full moon urges you to maintain your focus to accomplish all you desire. Make lists and organize your schedule to keep yourself on task. At times it may be hard to finish one task before going to the next. Your habitual dedication will keep you on track and solidly grounded.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) If your birthday is on Halloween, why not throw a huge party? Go all out and decorate the house inside and out. It is a time for frightful fun and harmless mischief. This week’s full moon urges you to let out your inner child to run wild! Treat yourself to an outrageous costume.

GEMINI (May 21 – Jun. 20) Have you picked out your costume yet? The full moon’s influence this week urges you to have some fun with friends and family. Attend or host a Halloween party full of fall festivity. Playing dress up should be easy for you, being the symbol of “twins.” Others appreciate you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Have you been feeling grumpy lately? This week’s full moon’s influence is on increasing your sense of “fun” in your life. Decorate your porch in a festive, fall fashion. Add elements that suit your style. Dress up and attend or host a Halloween party this weekend. You’ll be glad you did.

CANCER (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22) What has been unclear for several months will gain clarity. This week’s full moon will enhance your powers of intuition, shedding light where there was darkness. The recent rainstorms have washed away the negative feelings you have been keeping hidden, releasing a burden.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) What you may see as problems others view differently. Not everything has an immediate solution. Things work themselves out in their own time. This week’s full moon urges you to take a break from your worries. Let life sort out what it will, then you can deal with the rest of it.

LEO (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22) You may feel like taking it easy this week as the full moon urges you to take a break from drama and emotional situations. It’s time to invest in your needs and accomplishments. You have done so many kind things for others in the past weeks. Your actions will be justly rewarded.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) This week’s full moon influences us to recognize and show gratitude for the harvest or gifts received this season. It also urges us to prepare for the winter at hand. Your mind is currently sharply focused and grounded so take advantage of this before you go back up into the sky.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22) The Harvest Moon urges us to give thanks for all our blessings, no matter how small. It also warns us that winter is on its way and to be prepared for anything. Now is the time for you to get your ducks in a row so when spring rolls around you will be ready for your next adventure.

PISCES (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20) Money matters seem to always be on your mind. This week’s full moon urges you to appreciate all your bounty that you have been harvesting throughout the year. Celebrate the little things as well as the major accomplishments. Take life a bit less seriously and have some fun.

“Precious� Precious is a friendly and easygoing girl! She desires lots of love and affection. Precious will gladly relax with you while you work, occasionally reminding you she is there by your side. She will greet you with a smile, and especially enjoys being given treats. She was surrendered by her family, and has been here for a few months recovering. She has some minor reoccurring health issues, so regular monitoring is needed to keep her healthy, happy and relaxed. Due to her age and calm demeanor, she would do best in a home without young children. Precious is the perfect companion for someone who needs a sweetheart to keep them company.
