HOTEL. A planned hotel is set to provide rooms for larger conventions slated for the Greater Tacoma Convention and Trade Center.

he long-standing trouble of Tacoma lacking downtown hotel rooms to house guests attending large conventions at the Tacoma Convention and Trade Center is set to end with city officials approving plans for the private development of a two-tower high-rise that will have 16 floors of 300 hotel rooms in one tower and 17 floors of up to 220 con-

dominiums in the other. The whole project is likely to cost $150 million. The site of the project, situated between the convention center and the University of Washington-Tacoma campus, is currently a city-owned parking lot near South 17th Street and Broadway and valued at about $6 million. Each tower will have its own distinctive entrance with up to 50,000 square feet of retail and restaurant offerings on the ground u See HOTEL / page A11

HO! HO! HO! Little ones can come to the Toy Rescue Mission on Nov. 29 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and tell Tacoma’s

very own Hilltop Santa their wishes. Photos are $5 and each child will receive a small toy and a candy cane. Adults can register to win a pre-lit Christmas tree. Santa makes another visit at Sam & Terry Barbershop, 1212 Martin Luther King Jr. Way, on Dec. 20 from noon to 4 p.m. (Bottom right) Davis loves her volunteers, like Gig Harbor High School intern Hadley Reeder.

YES, TACOMA, THERE IS A SANTA CLAUS AND HER NAME IS MARTHA DAVIS By Matt Nagle

ny grown-up who has lost their faith in the existence of Santa Claus need only visit the Toy Rescue Mission in Tacoma. There, you will meet the charming and personable Martha Davis and while she doesn’t have a white beard or a belly that shakes like a bowl full of jelly, she is the embodiment of Saint Nick himself in her generous heart and soul. With a team of volunteer “elves� in the Mission’s toy workshops, Davis drives the sleigh as executive director of the Mission with just one pure goal in mind: to make Christmas bright for thousands of local children who otherwise would have nothing on that blessed day.

Housed in a plain building at 607 S. Winifred St. that you’d be likely to drive right past without even noticing, it’s a very different scene inside, as the non-profit Mission has been buzzing with activity 365 days a year for 24 years supplying for kids’ birthday parties, making Easter baskets, filling backpacks at back-to-school time and preparing for the Mission’s busiest time of year – Christmas. And business is booming – the Mission went from serving 50 children a year in its beginnings to serving 7,800 children last year and that number is guaranteed to keep growing. “It’s a very unique place in that it’s the only place like it in the United States,� Davis said. “We have done the research and there is no other place like this that is open yearround.� This is how the Toy Rescue Mission

works: Taking gently used toys donated by adults whose children and/or grandchildren have outgrown them, volunteers thoroughly clean and sanitize each and every toy, refurbish them to full working order – including fresh batteries with every toy that needs them – then a commercial shrink-wrap machine is used to package them up all neat and tidy. “We make it look like new,� Davis said, and she has high standards when it comes to what goes out on the shelves for shoppers. “I won’t give a child anything I wouldn’t give to mine.� Best of all, shoppers pay nothing – everything is free at the Toy Rescue Mission. The variety of items filling the Toy Rescue Mission is incredible to behold and all totally organized, with room after room packed wall-to-wall with dolls and all the

Sound Transit is shifting into a higher gear as it preps its longrange plan of projects to cut congestion around its tri-county Puget Sound service area. Previous bond packages will fund the current list of projects through 2023, but the region is growing faster than those projects can handle. Transit buses and trains already shuttle 100,000 people to and from work, classes, appointments and shopping centers each day. That ridership is projected to grow to 350,000 in 2030 following the completion of more than 30 miles of light rail expansions that are already in the works. That service load will only increase since Puget Sound is expected to grow by a million people by 2040. Planning for those new riders takes years of forecasting, developing funding options and designing routes. That means talks for future projects that won’t happen for decades has already started, including more than 12,000 people commenting about growth patterns and transit demands in the years to come. A draft long-range plan is under review, with a decision in December. Expect more talk about Sound Transit 3, a $15 billion package voters will be asked to consider as early as November 2016.

It is best to make sure the car you are driving is fully legal when you are driving in front of a cop car and you also just happen to have warrants out for your arrest. That is a lesson a 36-year-old man learned the hard way when two officers were patrolling Pacific Avenue on Nov. 22. They spotted the car and ran its license plate to find that the car had been sold in August, but the registration was never changed. That’s illegal. The officers pulled the car over and learned that the passenger owned it and the driver was her boyfriend. They did not have money to pay for the registration change after the woman bought the car. The man also didn’t have a driver’s license or proof of insurance for the car. He only told the officer his name and date of birth. The officer then learned the man had a $15,000 warrant out for his arrest on a drunken driving charge. He went to jail, while his girlfriend drove the car away. Smoking marijuana might be legal, but not for teenagers blazing up a fatty while waiting for a bus at Commerce Street Transit Center on Nov. 21. The 17-year-old boy was seen discarding a cigarette at the center and was approached because of the littering charge. The smell of marijuana filled the area around him and he became aggressive when officers approached. He was arrested and searched. Officers found three glass pipes, a grinder and a plastic bag with marijuana inside. He was taken to Remann Hall. Compiled by Steve Dunkelberger

COLD CASE: GIRL’S 1961 DISAPPEARANCE POSSIBLY LINKED TO TED BUNDY By David Rose Washington’s Most Wanted - Q13 Fox

Is a little girl who disappeared in 1961 haunting the women’s dormitory at the University of Puget Sound? I couldn’t find anyone last week to interview who has actually seen her, but it’s a DAVID ROSE well-known ghost story in Tacoma and another added layer to the mystery that surrounds her disappearance – a vanishing that includes a possible link to serial killer Ted Bundy. Washington’s Most Wanted Cold Case Correspondent Parella Lewis talked with Detective Gene Miller and national bestselling author Rebecca Morris about the case. Morris wrote the book “Ted and Ann.” “There was a storm that night. It was just before Labor Day weekend. It rained very hard for Tacoma and there was a lot of wind, and power went out in certain neighborhoods,” said Morris. It was Aug. 31, 1961. Ann Marie Burr and her family were hunkered down for the night. “It was kind of the last hurrah for the children in the family. Ann was the oldest of four. She was eight and a half and a couple of the kids slept in the basement in their fort, but Ann and her little sister stayed in their bedrooms upstairs,” Morris continued. Ann’s mother, Beverly, chained and locked the front door before going to bed, but when she woke up the next morning her little girl was gone. Morris explains, “The front door of the house, which was locked with the chain from the inside, was standing wide open and there was a window in the living room that had been opened from the outside. There was a bench pulled up to the window outside where somebody had stood on the bench and opened the window. “The bench that was leaned up against the side of the building subsequently was determined to have a partial palm print on it. There was a shoe print evidence near the point of entry. There was also a small quantity of biological evidence left at the point of entry as well, believed to be at least potentially from the suspect.” Morris continued, “The best suspects in 1961 were a high school neighbor boy who was two houses away from Ann’s

Pierce County Sheriff’s detectives need your help to locate a dog that was stolen and then sold. On October 24th, 2014, the pictured dog “Brodie” was stolen by an identified female suspect from the Alderra Apartments on 99th Ave. E. in Puyallup. Sometime between October 27th and October 30th the suspect sold the dog to an unidentified person possibly through the website offerupnow.com. Detectives believe the buyer did not know the dog was stolen and being sold for drug money. A reward is offered for the safe return of the dog, no questions asked. Brodie is a black and white 6 year old Boston Terrier and French Bulldog mix. His front feet and front legs, Fridays at 10:30pm on

house and police questioned him a couple of times, and a couple of bean pickers who had come up from Oregon to look for work.” There wasn’t enough evidence to charge them. Ann’s disappearance faded into memory until years later when police learned of Ted Bundy. He was just 14 years old when Ann disappeared and lived two miles away. Bundy also had an uncle who lived in her neighborhood and, according to a family friend, Ted knew Ann. “She says that Ann used to be in the group of kids that sometimes played together, and that Ted was around and that Ann liked to follow Ted around when he got his newspapers ready for delivery in the afternoon,” Morris explains. Ann’s mother wrote to Bundy asking if he kidnapped her daughter. Time and time again, he denied it, writing, “I do not know what happened to your daughter and had nothing to do with her disappearance.” However, an interview he gave shortly before his execution cast grave doubts on his claim. “Speaking in the third person hypothetically, he basically told the story about a very early crime where he took a young girl out of a house, sexually assaulted her in the orchard next door. There was an orchard next to the Burr house, and he said he left her in a deep ditch and watched as the Burr parents and police searched,” Morris says. Bundy wasn’t known for telling the

truth and enjoyed playing games. It’s been a half century since Ann vanished and some believe she may have been dumped in a ditch near her home while construction for the University of Puget Sound was underway. “There was a day when I realized that it was in the police report that Ann’s father had come back from searching the college campus and gone to the police and said, ‘You should look at those ditches up there where they’re building buildings because some are 30 feet deep and covered with water,’ and three days later it’s in the police report that they’ve gone up to look at them and they’ve already been filled in and paved over.” Ann’s parents passed away several years ago. Before she died in 2008, her mother struggled with never knowing for sure what happened to her little girl. Morris spent countless hours with her before she passed away and says, “I would say she didn’t know what to think. There were times when she felt it was likely that Ted had abducted Ann and there were times where she thought it must have been somebody else.” Tacoma Police have not ruled out the other suspects they first considered and Det. Miller would like to talk to anyone who has information on the case. If you can help detectives, call Crime Stoppers of Tacoma\Pierce County at 1 (800) 222TIPS.

A DAY ‘TUE’ GIVE IN TACOMA At the Nov. 18 Tacoma City Council meeting, Mayor Marilyn Strickland presented a proclamation proclaiming Dec. 2 as #GivingTuesday in Tacoma. The proclamation encourages citizens to “join together to give back to the

community in any way that is personally meaningful� to celebrate #GivingTuesday. Naomi Villano, executive director at New Phoebe House Association, and Jillian Foss, program assistant at New Phoebe House, received the proclamation. “To celebrate #GivingTuesday, we are inviting community members to help us replenish our children’s play area,� Villano explained, “and we invite everyone to consider a non-profit of their choice to give to on #GivingTuesday.� New Phoebe House provides housing, services and support to Pierce County mothers and children impacted by chemical dependency to help them achieve reunification and self-sufficiency. This is their second year celebrating #GivingTuesday, and they hope to raise $2,000 so they can give the children a new outdoor play set at the house. Those who are interested in joining New Phoebe House’s #GivingTuesday initiative can do so by visiting http://igg.me/at/NewPhoebeHouse. Following Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, #GivingTuesday is a global day dedicated to giving back. In addition to New Phoebe House, there are a number of organizations in Tacoma promoting #GivingTuesday. More information on #GivingTuesday and participating organizations can be found at www.GivingTuesday.org.

PLU HOSTS FREE RESOURCE SUMMIT FOR VETERANS Pacific Lutheran University will hold a free public Veterans Resource Summit on Dec. 6 designed to connect veterans community wide with local resources on everything from post-traumatic stress disorder to GI Bill military education benefits. Presenters at the high-profile event include representatives from U.S. Sen. Patty Murray’s office; the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs, with information on benefits such as education, healthcare, mental health, post-traumatic stress disorder and military sexual trauma; the Tacoma Vet Center; the National Association for Black Veterans; Delta Sigma Theta Inc.; Joint Base Lewis-McChord Sexual Assault Prevention Response Program; the JBLM Sexual Harassment and Assault Response Prevention Program; Wounded Warrior Project, Seattle; and The American Legion and VFW. PLU, co-sponsor Delta Sigma Theta and all of the resource providers are very proud of Washington’s veterans, said U.S. Army veteran Michael Farnum, PLU’s director of military outreach, and it’s increasingly crucial that they connect with the resources they need and deserve. “Every day we lose an estimated 22 veterans to suicide; that’s one every 65 minutes, almost 5,000 a year,� Farnum said. “There are between 300,000 and 900,000 veterans living on the streets, homeless, and an estimated 1.4 million at risk of being homeless. An estimated 460,000 veterans suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder; 19 percent of OIF/OEF (Operation Iraqi Freedom/Operation Enduring Freedom) veterans may have a traumatic brain injury; and 3.6 million veterans from all time frames have service-connected disabilities (I am one of them). “Sexual-assault statistics in the military are disturbing, to say the least, and reports of domestic violence are rising. Self-medication, alcoholism and drug addiction are obvious contributors — and even multipliers — of all of these problems,� Farnum said. “I believe that Washington state is the most veteran-supportive state in the nation, and this summit at PLU will bring to bear some of Washington’s finest resources to help combat these issues.� AIDS FOUNDATION, PLU COMMEMORATE WORLD AIDS DAY World AIDS Day was established in 1988 by UNAIDS as an international day of remembrance annually observed on Dec. 1. This year, Pierce County AIDS Foundation has planned a memorial event with the theme “Remember. Hope. Act.� The memorial will provide an opportunity for the community to commemorate those we have lost to HIV/AIDS, to support people currently living with HIV, to unite against HIV stigma and discrimination, and to join together in the eradication of the disease once and for all. The event takes place at Pacific Lutheran University, 12180 Park Ave. S., on Dec. 1 at 7 p.m. For more information contact Hannah Febach at (253) 383-2565 or e-mail hfebach@piercecountyaids.org.

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK

No. 6th and ‘L’ 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.

Brookdale Zoo. He is suddenly faced with the prospect of having to shut down this beloved town icon for lack of funds and he turns to Jesus to keep his hopes alive. Somehow, he must come up with a ton of cash in just a few short weeks to keep his father’s dream alive and save the zoo. There’s a huge problem, though – nobody goes to the zoo in the cold of winter and Miss French, the town’s new bank manager, must have the payment no later than Christmas. All seems lost until Marty gets an idea just crazy enough to work. Will Marty and his assistant Hank be able to pull it off before Christmas? Will Miss French use her authority to shut down the zoo? In addition to being highly entertaining, the story has a wonderful message for this time of year and all the year through: in the midst of his difficult questions, Marty calls out to Jesus and discovers that there is hope. There is always hope, even when hope is all you have.

t Mission accessories, games, puzzles, books, building toys, Fischer Price/Playskool, riding toys, arts and craft supplies, stuffed animals (Mission volunteers have processed 9,000 stuffed animals this year) – you name it and the Mission probably has it. The shopping rooms are designed like those in Target and Walmart, with toys displayed on rows of shelving in an orderly presentation that shoppers can browse through with ease. For the Christmas season, the Toy Rescue Mission is open Dec. 3-22, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. “We average 150 families a day for 12 days in the month of December,” Davis said, “and of those 150 families last year it was 5,543 children we served in one month in 12 days and all with volunteers.” The only requirement is that the child has to be receiving DSHS benefits in order to access the Toy Rescue Mission’s services. “If that child is on any state

From page A1

services they can come here for two consecutive years,” Davis explained. “After two years if they (parents/ guardians) come to me and say they still need help I’m going to ask them what they’ve done in those two years to help themselves. If they have evidence that they’ve really been trying then I tell them okay I got another deal for you. You volunteer 80 hours and I’ll help you again. They have to show me some initiative.” Dec. 3 is when the families start coming in to do their Christmas shopping and Mission volunteers get the place ready, clearing out rooms and setting up chairs for the visitors. Volunteers work one-on-one with the shoppers to help them pick the toys on their lists, and are also provided with gift wrapping, bows and tape, stocking stuffers, candy canes and more – everything needed to give little ones a truly Merry Christ-

mas. “I make sure the family has everything they need because for many of these families this is all these kids are going to get,” Davis said. Every family gets candy for their stockings – Davis said the Mission went through more than 4,000 candy canes last December – and every child gets three books. Before books are put on the shelf, however, each one is examined page by page for torn pages, marks, writing and such. Those that don’t make the cut are donated out to other agencies or sent to be recycled. This year alone 30,000 books were processed at the Toy Rescue Mission. “I got 7,000 kids and each child gets three books so I have to make sure I have plenty,” Davis said. By mixing and matching smaller toys and gift items, placing them in fun containers and shrink-wrapping them together, Davis and her volunteers create unique and very fun themed gift baskets, like a movie theme with a DVD, pop-

corn and candy, or a Seahawks container with a Seahawks blanket, sticker and box of Skittles. The same goes for the dolls. Every doll gets added gifts, like additional outfits and shoes, and shrink-wrapped to be a present any girl would love to get. Baby dolls come in a cradle with mattress, pillow and a quilt and a tiny stuffed animal. These dolls, and all the others, come fully dressed with extra sets of clothes and accessories. As board games in particular are notorious for having missing pieces, the Mission has that covered with its treasure trove of game parts. “We have spare parts for every game under the sun,” Davis said. “If you lost any piece from a Monopoly game, or Life or Risk, I probably have it. That way we can put it together and shrink-wrap it before it goes out.” The Mission also stocks holiday home decorations that shoppers can take home, including wreaths and lighted décor pre-tested for full working order.

For birthdays, customers come in and are given a shopping bag to fill with three books per child, a DVD movie, game or puzzle and two gifts plus cake mix and frosting, candles, party favors and cups, plates and napkins for a birthday party all wrapped up together. If available, shoppers can get tickets to Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium, Northwest Trek and LeMay Museum, which are provided by the United Way. And for the Easter holiday, the Mission fills more than 1,000 baskets with toys, books and candy. The Mission serves seniors too, gifting nursing homes and care facilities with large-piece puzzles and large-print books, toiletries, lap blankets, walkers/wheelchairs and more. Davis said that the Mission is in high need of gifts for older children 12-15 years old, such as board games, puzzles and sports equipment, especially soccer balls, basketballs and footballs that aren’t too worn from use. Food for the Christmas volunteers, 15 volunteers a day for 15 days, is also very much appreciated. “We need to feed them so we could use snacks for the volunteers,” Davis said. Her biggest wish, though, is for a new building to house the Mission. She said that while her current landlords are quite generous in the rent she pays, the Mission has simply outgrown its space. “I need a bigger building. That’s my biggest need. If anyone was to ask me what my Christmas wish is it would be a bigger building that I could afford. We’ve really outgrown this

building.” It’s plain to see that for more than two decades Davis has poured her everything into the Toy Rescue Mission, made obvious by the ever-increasing number of families the Mission is able to serve. Just speak with Davis about her work and you’ll feel her passion – and why the Toy Rescue Mission’s original founder, Karol Barkley, made a great decision to pass her Mission over to Davis a few years later. “I was just retiring and needed something to do,” Davis said. The Mission receives no federal or state funding and Davis takes no paycheck for her work, nor do her volunteers save for a few part-time paid workers at Christmas. But money isn’t what Davis is after – it’s the bringing of blessings to children that fills her with joy. Down one hallway in the Mission she has dozens of cards and letters pinned to the wall. Given that Davis doesn’t always see the children she’s providing for, since parents are asked to come alone in order to keep their gifts a surprise, Davis is delighted when a thoughtful boy or girl sends her a card or letter. “We get lots of thank-you cards and the ones that mean the most to me are the ones that come from the kids themselves. Those are the ones that really touch my heart when the kids think enough to say, ‘I got a birthday present that I wouldn’t have received.’” To learn more about the Toy Rescue Mission, like them on Facebook, visit www.toyrescuemission.org and call (253) 460-6711.

Local Restaurants RESTAURANT SPOTLIGHT: TAQUERIA TRES HERMANOS Quickie Too

By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

F

ife is quickly becoming a hot spot for delicious and varied food, and one of the establishments leading the charge is Taqueria Tres Hermanos, located at 4420 Pacific Hwy. E. After successfully operating an identically named food truck in Tacoma since 2008, owners Salvador Naranjo and his wife Rosie decided to open a full fledged restaurant, and chose to expand to the Fife location. “We were looking for something indoors to improve our service to the customer, because of the weather,” Rosie said. The inside of the location uses its space to maximum potential, packed with various refrigerators for the variety of drinks offered, and a large display for desserts. Juxtaposed with a homey and clean atmosphere, Taqueria Tres Hermanos’ environment is perfect for a lunch date or a family dinner. The Naranjos have been in the restaurant business for the last 15 years, getting their start in Georgia before moving to the Pacific Northwest, first Portland and then Tacoma. Despite operating in America, the Naranjos know all about authentic Mexican style, being raised in the city of Jalisco before moving north to be with family. This also helps them interact with customers, as the couple is bilingual, fluent in both English and Spanish. Currently, Rosie is recommending Taqueria Tres Hermanos’ beef soup, perfect to warm a customer up in the cold weather. The restaurant also offers several different types of desserts that will satisfy any sweet tooth. Taqueria Tres Hermanos serves breakfast choices

include a mix of property taxes, vehicle license tab increases and other hikes, if lawmakers allow for Sound Transit to collect more than the current tax lid allows. One fundraising option is to start charging businesses in Snohomish, King and Pierce counties up to $2 per worker. Sound Transit already has the green light to ask voters to start collecting the tax, but that has never been included in previous packages and couldn’t cover the full slate of projected projects. Neither would the creation of Local Improvement Districts to fund specific projects. Whatever the specific tax and fee formula, the target is $15 billion over

floors. Plans call for the hotel to have a direct connection with the convention center’s pre-function area. Seattle-based Yareton Investment and Management is proposing the development, which will largely be funded by Chinese-connected investors through a foreign investment program administered through the State Department. The program allows foreign investors to fast track visa applications if they finance job-creating projects. Yareton is also behind a similar hotel project in Des Moines. It was one of five developers who submitted proposals to the city’s call for projects earlier this year. Three of the other proposals sought subsidies while the fourth wanted use of the convention center parking garage for hotel guests. Construction could start as early as next fall. The hotel could open in the summer of 2017, while the condos could open a year later.

15 years on yet-to-be determined projects. Voters approved a larger package in 2008 that created a host of projects, including the expansion of Tacoma Link that is under development to connect the current system up to the Hilltop neighborhood. “For the Sound Transit Board to be able to put a measure before voters in 2016, the Legislature must first grant local authority to the agency,� said Sound Transit Board Chair and King County Executive Dow Constantine. “Once the state provides flexible

funding tools, the board can move to decide on a package of specific highcapacity projects, and the means by which voters can choose to fund them.� In adopting its state legislative agenda for 2015, the board is set to ask lawmakers for a range of options to fund a transportation package that would then be considered by local voters. On the table now is a property tax of up to 25 cents for each $1,000 of assessed

valuation. That’s $75 annually for a $300,000 house. A sales tax increase of 0.5 percent and the reauthorization of vehicle tab fees of up to 0.8 percent of vehicle value, $80 annually on a $10,000 vehicle, are also under discussion. The current tab fee was part of Sound Transit’s original enabling legislation but was rescinded in 2003. Sound Transit is continuing to collect 0.3 percent of the original.

MAGICAL SEASON ENDS NINE YARDS SHORT FOR LINCOLN

PHOTOS BY ROCKY ROSS

LION HEART. At 5-5 and 130 pounds,

senior running back Nathan GoltermannDoyle (above) ran with more heart and determination than most players in the state. He finished with more than 1,000 yards rushing two years in a row. The Lions probably would not have made it as far had senior quarterback William Roberson (below) not stepped up and took command of the team as a firstyear starter.

TOP-RANKED BOTHELL FINALLY FINDS A WAY TO BEAT BELLARMINE By Justin Gimse jgimse@tacomaweekly.com

By Justin Gimse jgimse@tacomaweekly.com

A

few plays cost the Lincoln Abes dearly Saturday, Nov. 22 at Lincoln Bowl and the thrill ride of a season came to a close within tripping distance of the end zone in a 28-21 heart-pounding, heartbreaking loss to second-ranked Eastside Catholic. In a game that saw the Abes outgain the Crusaders 356 to 293 in total yardage, it was a fumble, a turnover on downs and an interception that turned into 21 points for Eastside Catholic and was the game changer. The 2014 Lincoln team has to be considered the most successful Abes football team in the modern era. The Abes finished the season with an 11-1 record and led the three highest classifications in scoring at a staggering 47.8 points per game. But it just wouldn’t come together in the 3A state quarterfinals. Lincoln’s Dehonta Hayes returned the opening kick-off out to the Lincoln 49-yard line, only to see it brought back to the 12-yard line on a holding penalty. It didn’t take long for the Abes to regain their footing as Hayes took a handoff from junior quarterback Jordan Kitna and swept right and up the sideline, beating the last Crusader defender to the goal line for an electrifying 74-yard touchdown run. After a successful kick, the Abes led 7-0 with 10:42 remaining in the first quarter. Eastside Catholic (11-1) went nowhere on its opening drive and on third and 23, quarterback Harley Kirsch lofted a pass down the field that was intercepted by Lincoln sophomore Joey Sinclair. An illegal motion and intentional grounding penalty on the subsequent Lincoln drive forced the Abes to punt the ball back to the Crusaders. The Abes defense stepped up on the next drive and forced a three and out by Eastside Catholic and started their next drive at their own 27-yard line. Kitna combined three passes with a couple of runs to work the Abes down field before connecting with Hayes for a 32-yard scoring strike. Lincoln now led 14-0 with 11:52 left in the second quarter. On the next possession, Eastside Catholic again had trouble with the Lincoln defense and was forced to punt from their own 26-yard line. Punter Alex

SO CLOSE! Lincoln junior defensive lineman Xavier Baines (above)

helped keep the vaunted Eastside Catholic offense in check for much of the state quarterfinal contest. As he was for the entire season, Lincoln senior all-star Dehonta Hayes (middle) was a game-changer for the Abes, scoring two touchdowns. Junior quarterback Jordan Kitna (below) finished his dynamic season with a state-leading 55 touchdown passes.

Baer boomed a 66-yarder to the Lincoln eight-yard line and Lincoln would soon find itself in trouble for the first time. After rushes by Hayes, Marcus Johnson and Jusstis Warren, Lincoln had moved the ball out to the 19-yard line and a first down. On the next play, Johnson ran the ball to the right and while fighting for another yard, fumbled the ball. The Crusaders recovered at the 25-yard line.

It would take just one play for Eastside Catholic to get on the scoreboard as running back Devon Arbis-Jackson sprinted to the outside and then cut back to the middle and found the end zone. Lincoln’s lead was now 14-7 with 8:39 remaining in the second quarter. The Crusaders would threaten two more times in the half, but would come away with zero points.

The Bellarmine Lions’ wild ride through the playoffs finally came to an end against the top-ranked Bothell Cougars on Saturday, Nov. 22 at Mt. Tahoma Stadium. After defeating the Cougars three out of the last four years in the state tournament, the Lions got behind early thanks to four first-half turnovers and were unable to get any momentum until late in the game in the 37-14 defeat. Bellarmine began their playoff run with two shocking victories. On Nov. 8, the Lions traveled to Kent and handled 10th-ranked Kentwood 17-6. The following Saturday lightning struck again and Bellarmine defeated secondranked Camas on the road 20-13 in what will probably be the biggest state tournament upset of the year if no one knocks off 3A powerhouse Bellevue. A third time was not going to be a charm this time around for the Lions. Bothell (12-0) took the opening kick-off and went to work down the field. Running back Caleb Meyer found an opening in the Lion defense and scampered 24 yards for a touchdown. Bothell led 7-0 with 10 minutes remaining in the first quarter. On the ensuing kick-off, Bothell dropped a short kick in between Bellarmine players. Miscommunication led to no Lions jumping on top of the ball and Bothell recovered. Less than two minutes later, kicker Steve Weedin drilled a 35-yard field goal into the teeth of the wind for a 10-0 Bothell lead. Bellarmine (8-4) started the next drive from their own 17-yard line. After two plays and a motion penalty, the Lions faced third and 14 from the 13-yard line. Quarterback William Roberson’s pass caught the wind and sailed into the hands of Meyer, who returned the ball all the way back to the one-yard line. The Lions defense held strong and following a motion penalty and two big tackles for losses, Bothell was forced to go for a field goal again. Weedin’s 30-yard field goal was good and Bothell now led 13-0 with 17 seconds left in the first quarter. The Lions had good field position following the Bothell kick-off, but were unable to move the ball and had to punt. Following a chop-block penalty that backed them up to the 12-yard line, Bothell went right back on the attack. It took two plays for the Cougars to move the ball out to the 39-yard line. On the next play, quarterback Reed Holland lofted a deep ball down the right sideline that Daniel Carlton was able to snag and run it into the end zone. Bothell now led 20-0 with 9:36 left in the second quarter. Three plays into the next Bellarmine drive, Roberson’s pass to Erik Glueck was a little high and the tight-end tipped the ball into the air only to have it land in the hands of Bothell’s

drove the ball to the Lincoln 23-yard line, but on fourth and four, Hirsch’s pass fell incomplete and Lincoln took over on downs. The Abes were unable to make a first down following and had to punt. With time running out in the half, Eastside Catholic drove to the Lincoln 19-yard line, but Hirsch’s pass in the end zone was batted away to keep the Lincoln lead at 14-7. Lincoln opened the second half with an onside kick. The ball failed to travel 10 yards and the Crusaders took over at the Lincoln 49-yard line. It would be the longest drive of the game for Eastside Catholic and was capped by a six-yard touchdown pass from Hirsch to Arbis-Jackson on fourth and goal. The game was now tied at 14-14 with 9:38 remaining in the third quarter. The third quarter would be tough on the Lincoln offense as the Abes would muster just 18 yards of total offense and Kitna was intercepted on their first drive of the half. However, on the Crusaders third possession, the Abes’ defense got into the scoring action. On second and 10 from the Crusaders’ own 42-yard line, Hirsch threw a backward pass toward the sideline that Lincoln’s Marcus Johnson stepped in front of. Johnson muffed the catch, but didn’t stop on the play and scooped the ball up at the 36-yard line. Johnson would run the ball back untouched for a 21-14 Lincoln lead with 3:23 left in the third quarter. The Crusaders drove to the Lincoln 40-yard line on the next possession but the Abes defense stopped them cold. Hirsch quick-kicked it on fourth and 10

Tyler Wharf at the Lion 48-yard line. Three plays later Meyer rambled into the end zone from five yards out and Bothell led 27-0 with 5:43 left in the first half. Bellarmine’s superstar running back Nathan Goltermann-Doyle fumbled on Bellarmine’s next possession as he ran into the teeth of the Cougar defensive front. Doyle would leave the game with what appeared to be a serious knee injury and would not return. Bothell took over and used four plays to score again, capped by a nine-yard touchdown run by Jonathan Kvech. Bothell would go into halftime with

and Lincoln took over on their own 20-yard line. Trouble was about to brew for the Abes again. With the fourth quarter just underway and needing less than a yard for a first down at their own 29-yard line, the Lincoln coaching staff decided to roll the dice and go for it. While the gambles had paid off frequently throughout the season, this time the Abes chose the wrong time. Eastside Catholic stuffed Hayes on a run up the middle for a one-yard loss and the Crusaders took over within sight of the end zone. Two plays later, Hirsch connected again with Arbis-Jackson, this time for a 19-yard touchdown and the game was tied at 21-21 with 10:05 left in the game. Lincoln would respond with an impressive drive, marching down to the Crusader 11-yard line. On second and six, Kitna dropped back and fired a dart into the end zone. Eastside Catholic’s Jonathan Webster was tracking the play all along and stepped in front of the ball for an interception and sprinted down the field. Kitna was finally able to bring Webster down at the Lincoln 37-yard line. Four plays into the next Crusader drive, running back Brandon Wellington rushed up the gut for a seven-yard touchdown and Eastside Catholic took a 28-21 lead with 6:20 left in the game. Following the squib kick-off, Lincoln took over at their own 36-yard line. Kitna directed the team down the field on a 13-play drive. At the Crusader nineyard line, the Abes faced fourth down with just under four yards to go. Kitna took the snap and looked to the right side of the end zone. Just as he was about to release the ball he was hit from his left side and the pass fell short. Eastside Catholic took over on downs and following a 15-yard scramble by Wellington on second and eight, was able to run out the clock for the 28-21 victory. a 34-0 lead. The Lions came out determined and fired up in the second half, but another fumble gave the ball back to the Cougars. What looked to be a big pass play from Roberson to tight-end Blake Wilcoxen ended with what looked to be an uncalled horse-collar tackle, which resulted in a lost fumble. Bothell would go on to add three more points on a 23-yard Weedin field goal for a 37-0 lead with six minutes remaining in the third quarter. Ahmad Lewis would get the Lions on the scoreboard in the fourth quarter on a five-yard touchdown run that put the score at 37-7 with less than nine minutes to play. Wilcoxen would get a little vindication with seconds on the clock, hauling in a 29-yard touchdown pass from Roberson.

TRAMPIRES FALL TO COGS AS MOLLYS CONTINUE STREAK

JAB. Femme Fianna jammer Slainbow Brite takes a hit from Marauding Mollys’ KC Kaos, as Reese the Beast and Booty Trapp skate in. By Steve Dunkelberger stevedunkel@tacomaweekly.com

Bout two of Dockyard Derby Dames’ ninth season didn’t disappoint with five-time champions Trampires pitted against ßber-competitive Bellingham Roller Betties’ the Cog Blockers. Warm-up laps foreshadowed things to come with Cog Blockers showing coordinated team drills that would later wow crowds during the actual bout. The Trampires held their own for the first half, which ended 96 to 126 in favor of the guest squad. Then the 253 team tired out just as Bellingham was hitting its stride, ending the bout with a blowout 175 to 281. The Cog Blocker jammers just kept getting through Trampires’

wall of muscle and hip checks with some fast wheels, tight tucks and razor-edged cornering. Skill simply won out over brawn. The second bout of the night at Pierce College Fort Steilacoom on Saturday had the Dockyard’s Femme Fianna against the Marauding Mollys, an undefeated team three years running. That streak seemed set to end by the finish of the first half with the Femmes topping at the break 135 to 101. But the lead was not to last. The Mollys took the lead 177 to 176 with 15 minutes left in the second half and never gave up the standing. The bout ended 215 to 252. The next bout is slated for Jan. 10.

SUFFOCATION: EVOLUTION By J. Steven Hanna Executive Massage

I

f I had to speculate about how evolution makes advances in a race or species I would choose to think that our ability to utilize oxygen would improve our intelligence. Every cell in our bodies depends on burning this chemical, especially the brain. The brain has a special relationship with oxygen, getting the majority portion of every breath. However my speculation tells me that this “60 percentâ€? that goes to the brain is not even nearly enough for it to perform its duties. We can only use 10 percent of our brain based on the latest accepted scientiďŹ c information. Understanding that nature doesn’t give us anything it doesn’t expect us to use, eventually we shall be able to use our entire brain but not before we get better at using more lung space and therefore more oxygen consumption. We humans perform so poorly in breathing that by the time we reach our golden years we have numerous respiratory problems stemming from being “a shallow breather.â€? (I read it somewhere and I believe it. ) If you can visualize the average human breath intake is about one cup of oxygen, our lung capacity is more like two quarts. Shaky proof would be if you look at the healthiest countries. In Scandinavia the population spends lots of time outdoors exercising. The higher oxygen con-

tent in their blood means more health in their lives. There is much scientiďŹ c evidence, and my personnel opinion, to support these conclusions. Some of the Tacomans that I have helped in my years at the Tacoma Mall for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sleep apnea and sinus conditions have generally improved their breathing and, ensuing, their overall health. The aging process seems to challenge us to breathe more to stay healthy and on the go, able to perform everyday routines. Over time our blood loses the ability to carry oxygen, thereby suffocating every cell in our bodies, and especially the brain. On the reverse side, if we start to teach our very young to breathe deeper and longer we might just nudge the evolutionary process into speeding up change and the ability to use more of the “gray matterâ€? God gave us. We all might one day be able to use mental telepathy and move objects without touching them, overcome crime and warfare and living longer with less disease. J.

Stars don’t play again until Saturday, Dec. 13 when they travel to play Wenatchee. Tacoma returns home Saturday, Dec. 20 against the Arlington Aviators.

The Pacific Lutheran men’s basketball team opens its 2014-15 home schedule this week, as the Lutes are set to host St. Olaf on Friday, Nov. 28 in a non-conference game at Names Family Court. Pacific Lutheran is coming off a 1-1 showing at the Doug McArthur Classic hosted by University of Puget Sound last weekend to open the season. The Lutes fell to Oglethorpe 74-58 in Friday’s opener before bouncing back for a 71-59 win on Saturday over Mount Saint Mary. “We grew quite a bit between games,” PLU coach Steve Dickerson said. “We’re a very young team, so there are going to be blips in the radar as we go along. Basically the team equated itself very well this weekend.” A PLU team that is starting two freshmen and a sophomore saw that talented youth pay off, as freshman Dylan Foreman opened his PLU career by averaging 14.5 points and 6.5 rebounds per game over the weekend and sophomore Brandon Lester led the Lutes with 19 points in Saturday’s win and averaged 12 per game. Junior post Bryce Miller averaged 14 points and 12.5 rebounds, posting double-doubles in both contests. Now the Lutes turn their attention to a busy seven-day stretch that will include three games. It began Tuesday, when Northwest came to town for a 7:30 p.m. matchup. St. Olaf follows at 4 p.m. on Friday, and the Lutes will travel up to the ShoWare Center in Kent on Monday for a 7 p.m. game against NCAA Div. I Seattle University. Northwest is already a full month into its season, as the NAIA Eagles have a 5-2 record and average 68 points per game while allowing 66.3. Four Eagles are averaging double-figures in the scoring column, led by C.J. Carter’s 15.3 points per game. Nemanja Grujicic has added 10.2 points per game while leading the team with 8.5 rebounds per contest and 11 total blocks. PLU is 10-8 all-time against Northwest, although the Eagles have won eight of the last 11 meetings between the teams, including the last four. Last season Northwest defeated PLU 78-71 in Kirkland, and Dickerson knows the Eagles present a challenge every time the Lutes face them. “Northwest is historically one of the best NAIA teams in the region,” Dickerson said. “So that will be a big game for us. It will help us grow together as a team, and we’ll be playing tremendous competition.” Friday’s game will mark the first time the Lutes have played St. Olaf since the 1986-87 season. The Oles are 2-0 this season, scoring 102 points in a big win over Bethany Lutheran and narrowly pulling out a one-point win over Wisconsin-Stevens Point. Ben Figini has been their top scorer with 37 points through the two games, followed by Justin Pahl’s 28 total points. As a team, the Oles have shot 56.5 percent from the field while allowing opponents to make 50.5 percent of their shots. PLU is 2-0 all-time against St. Olaf. “They are usually a typical Minnesota team,” Dickerson said of St. Olaf. “They have some good shooters, they’re big and they’ll try to bully us around a little bit. We’ll see how that goes.” Monday’s game will continue a long-running series that has seen PLU post a 34-26 all-time record against Seattle. After a seven-year hiatus, the series resumed in 2009 with Seattle as an NCAA Div. I program, and the Redhawks have beaten PLU in all six meetings – including three exhibitions – since then. While the Redhawks typically play at Seattle’s Key Arena, Monday’s game has been moved to Kent and dubbed the “ShoWare College Classic.”

STARS HOLD OFF ARTESIANS IN OLYTOWN HOME OPENER

The Tacoma Stars improved to 2-0-0 in Western Indoor Soccer League play and also took over sole possession of first place with an 8-5 victory over the Oly Town Artesians (0-0-1) on Saturday, Nov. 22 at Olympia Indoor Soccer. The Stars were supported by a noisy traveling group of Satellites, who celebrated the win after the final whistle. Head coach Darren Sawatzky surprised everyone by making it to the match after coming directly from the airport as he returned from his trip to France to obtain an elite coaching certification. The match began with Olympia taking a quick 1-0 lead on a goal from Willie Spurr. It was a Tacoma run the rest of the way until a late Artesians flurry brought about the final score. Tacoma drew level at 1-1 and then took over in the second quarter, scoring three to take a 4-1 lead into halftime. It was 6-1 in the third period before Oly could answer back. When they did to make it 6-2, the Stars put two more home to take an 8-2 advantage. Later Oly Town rallied with three goals but Tacoma was able to run out the clock. Former PLU standout Derek Johnson joined the Stars earlier in the week and scored two goals on the night as well as adding an assist. Kyle Danielson also matched that output with two goals and an assist. Vitale Bulala dished out three assists for Tacoma. The Stars’ other four goals came from Vincent McCluskey (also joining the Stars this week), Joey Gjertsen, Byron Conforti and Steve Pirotte. Aaron Anderson played in goal the whole way for the Stars, grabbing more than 30 saves even as his goals against average bumped up to 4.0. In the weekend’s other WISL match the Wenatchee Fire drew 6-6 in their home opener with Bellingham United. The

The AC Seattle women’s side will be named FC Tacoma 253 from now on. With the creation of a FC Tacoma 253 side for the men, the City of Destiny will now have a comprehensive franchise with one umbrella organization, the OSA Soccer Academy. This merger means that Pierce County will see the first truly European soccer model established. This model focuses on the development of youth players and offers opportunities all the way through the players’ careers – even in the college and professionals. “The first steps have been made, the new FC Tacoma club already has 400 players, 40 of these players have already become part of our PDP project, an elite program that we’re offering free of charge to our top players,” said OSA Soccer Academy President Giuseppe Pezzano. “Our PDP program is closely followed by professor Vincenzo Vergine of AC Fiorentina. He is one of the first European youth directors. six years ago, he began looking in the U.S. for talented youth players to develop into professional players.” After two successful seasons for AC Seattle’s women’s team in the WPSL, the OSA group is already in contact with the USL about having an FC Tacoma team in the W league in the 2016 season. This would create an exciting derby with the Sounders women where Seattle and Tacoma would have teams in the same division. The FC Tacoma men’s team will join the NPSL Northwestern Conference in 2015. It will play its matches at Mount Tahoma High School.

Fans swoon as Fleetwood Mac, Christine McVie reunite in Tacoma

F

leetwood Mac had just headlined the Tacoma Dome a year and a half ago, so there was a good chance the legendary rock band would cover much of the same ground during its return engagement on Thursday, Nov. 20. Still, there was at least one compelling reason for fans to plunk down ticket money one more time: the return of singerkeyboardist Christine McVie. McVie wrote some of Fleetwood Mac’s biggest hits and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with her band mates in 1998, right around the time she quit touring. During an appearance on the “Today” show, she blamed a fear of flying for her lengthy hiatus; and while that seems like an overly simple answer, given the band’s tumultuous past, one has to wonder if ex-husband John McVie’s recent bout with cancer – the reason for several show cancellations last year – had served as a wake up call, pulling her back into the fold. Whatever the reason, local fans were ecstatic to see the band’s classic lineup, – also singer Stevie Nicks, singer-guitarist Lindsey Buckingham and drummer Mick Fleetwood. “Welcome back, Chris!” Nicks declared two songs into the set, drawing

thunderous applause from nearly 15,000 faithful that had showed up. “She’s back, and looks like she’s going to stay.” Like last year, Fleetwood Mac had no opening act and played for more than 2 1/2 hours, a bulk of the set drawn from the band’s classic 1970s albums, “Fleetwood Mac,” “Rumours” and “Tusk.” There was extra emphasis on Christine McVie’s contributions, of course, starting with “You Make Loving Fun.” She struggled to hit a few notes in the beginning; but fans cheered her on, just thrilled to hear her sing for the first time since the Clinton Administration. McVie had shaken off her early set jitters by the time she was up for the band’s breezy ‘80s hit “Everywhere.” And eventually the evening ended on a poignant note with her sitting at the piano for “Rumours” era ballad, “Songbird.” McVie’s return aside, the most noteworthy improvement over last year’s show was, in a word, balance. Buckingham was amped up in 2013, to the point that his unbridled energy overpowered his band mates, especially Nicks who sounded great but seemed a bit distant. Maybe she’d been a little under the weather that night because she had a much stronger stage presence on Thursday, adding hair-flailing theatrics to “Gold Dust Woman” and bringing back her trademark twirling shawl dance (absent

last year) during “Rhiannon” and “Gypsy.” Buckingham remains the band’s most galvanizing force, though, evident during his frantic, yelping delivery of “Big Love” and the final, fretboard slapping moments of “I’m So Afraid.” Nicks and Buckingham delivered the night’s two best songs as an acoustic duo. At no point was the former’s smoky vibrato more entrancing than during the oft-covered “Landslide,” a song she dedicated to a friend who’d survived cancer. Up next was “Never Going Back Again,” a breezy ditty from “Rumours” that Buckingham delivered with palpable desperation, his voice trailing off into frayed whispers before erupting again into a heart-tugging wail; one of the most breathtaking performances this year, for sure. Fleetwood Mac set list (Tacoma Dome, Nov. 20, 2014): The Chain, You Make Loving Fun, Dreams, Second Hand News, Rhiannon, Everywhere, I Know I’m Not Wrong, Tusk, Sisters of the Moon, Seven Wonders, Big Love, Landslide, Never Going Back Again, Over My Head, Gypsy, Little Lies, Gold Dust Woman, I’m So Afraid, Go Your Own Way Encores: World Turning (with Mick Fleetwood drum solo), Don’t Stop, Silver Springs, Songbird

Bill Cosby’s scheduled April 18 appearance at Tacoma’s Pantages Theater has been canceled. Broadway Center made the announcement late last week amid accusations that the iconic comedian and actor had drugged and sexually assaulted multiple women dating back to the 1960s. “This decision is not intended to pass judgment on Mr. Cosby – that is not the business of the Broadway Center,” reads a statement from Broadway Center Executive Director David Fischer. “We’ve been deliberate and thoughtful in making this decision, carefully considering our many relationships and legal obligations, including those with Mr. Cosby, with ticket buyers, and with our community. The Broadway Center is a non-profit organization that works diligently to strengthen our community’s social fabric by building empathy, furthering education, and sharing joy. Ultimately, we were not confident in our ability to meet those objectives by proceeding with Mr. Cosby’s performance in Tacoma. “In making this decision, the Broadway Center also took into consideration the financial harm we will suffer by cancelling, and the even greater financial risk of moving forward with the performance,” the statement concluded. In 2006, Cosby settled a civil lawsuit filed by one accuser for an undisclosed amount. The comedian has not faced criminal charges related to any of his accusers. CNN recently interviewed Pennsylvania prosecutor Bruce Castor who said he wanted to pursue charges related to accusations made by a 31-yearold staffer for the women’s basketball team at Temple University but that he lacked evidence. There has been a renewed interest in the sexual assault allegations since a clip went viral of comedian Hannibal Burress calling Cosby a rapist during one of his performances. Bill Cosby last appeared in Tacoma, at the University of Puget Sound, in February 2013. Broadway Center is offering all ticket buyers the option of getting a full refund or a ticket to another show. The venue’s box office team will be reaching out to all ticket holders in the coming days to make arrangements, according to last week’s announcement. Box office hours of operation are Monday through Friday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., and the phone number is (253) 591-5894 or toll-free at 1 (800) 291-7593.

THE THINGS WE LIKE ONE ‘IMAGINE I’M BEAUTIFUL’ Winner of 11 film festival awards, “Imagine I’m Beautiful” is a haunting and empathetic examination into the murky corners of two women’s psyches. This psychological drama dissects the fine line between self-invention and destruction, as Lana moves to New York to start anew but instead moves in with the troubled Kate. The two slowly forge a friendship until one of them makes a discovery that will alter their friendship for good. Plays Dec. 3, 7 p.m. at The Grand Cinema, 606 S. Fawcett Ave. followed by a special Q&A with award-winning writer/actress/producer Naomi McDougall Jones. Tickets $10 at at www.tugg.com/events/11224. Visit www. imagineimbeautiful.com.

Two artists work at synthesis between art of Japan and America By Dave R. Davison

swirling works in which Kimura used a broom as a brush.

dave@tacomaweekly.com

The Gallery at Tacoma Community College is currently hosting a twoperson show in which a cultural fusion is evident. Works by Sumi painter and watercolorist Fumiko Kimura hangs on the walls while ceramic vessels by Rob Fornell occupy the middle space. Kimura and Fornell are both bicultural from an artistic standpoint. Their roots are sunken into the artistic heritage of both Japan and America. Each artist has achieved a synthesis between the artistic traditions of Japan and the urge toward invention and exploration of media that marks the arts of the Western world. (This is not to suggest that Japanese art is overly tradition-bound or that western artists are not susceptible to becoming caught up in self imposed rules as to what constitutes proper art.) Both artists capture the Japanese emphasis on the spontaneous and the gestural, Kimura in her paintings and Fornell in his crafting of vessels for the Tea Ceremony. Yet both are also constantly pushing the boundaries of their particular medium, probing for ever greater expressive potential. For Kimura, the show functions as a retrospective of a long and illustrious career. There is everything from a 1955 watercolor of the Murray Morgan Bridge to works done this year. There are examples of experiments in which Sumi ink is combined with teabags or pieces of bamboo or ink made with chimney soot. There are intimate, small works with gold leaf that draw the viewer in for a close look and there are big,

“Pink Ubiquity� by Fumiko Kimura.

Born in Idaho during the great depression, Kimura went back to Japan to live for much of her childhood. She returned to the United States after WWII and went to Stadium High School and University of Puget Sound where she earned a degree in chemistry. Later she earned a masters degree in education. From childhood and continuing through college, Kimura was a painter. She learned the art of calligraphy in Japan and took art courses at UPS. In the 1980s she spent more time in Japan to further her artistic studies. Kimura has worked as a costume designer for the Tacoma City Ballet (some of the costumes are included in the show) and is the founder of the Puget Sound Sumi-e Association. Having earned his B.F.A. degree at University of Minnesota, Fornell came to the Pacific Northwest in the 1980s to get his M.F.A at University of Washington. For the next couple of decades he lived and worked in Japan, getting further training in the ceramic arts and working as an artist. Work in the show includes some of

his tea bowls and other vessels made for the Tea Ceremony. These are wonderfully individualistic. Some wood fired tea bowls are formed by hand and beveled with a wire. There are a number of porcelain cups that were wheel thrown, disassembled and them pieced back together with seams and undulations. Fornell’s use of black glaze with white porcelain has dramatic impact. Most fascinating is a series of hand built vases that Fornell made for Ikebana (Japanese style flower arranging). Fornell embarked upon the series after the 2000 passing of his father. Feeling a need to slow down, he got away from the potter’s wheel and immersed himself in working the clay with his bare hands. Some have a boat-like form. Some are more organic with sweeping curves. The heavy glaze is often fissured by fascinating, tactile cracks.

Black and white tea ceremony vessel by Rob Fornell.

The multitude of works in this show are sure to inspire viewers to go home and to begin to explore new directions in both creativity of materials as well as just living. The show runs through Dec. 13. For further information visit www.tacomacc.edu/campuslife/thegallery.

METAL GODS. Pioneers of metal performed at the Tacoma Dome Nov. 22.

JUDAS PRIEST UNLEASHES 40 YEARS OF METAL All eyes in the heavy metal world were fixed on Tacoma on Saturday, Nov. 22, as one of the most talked about metal tours of the year rolled through town – Judas Priest with comedy glam-rockers Steel Panther. Steel Panther warmed up the raucous, metal-loving Tacoma crowd with their exaggerated hair metal routine that both pays homage to and satirizes all the Aqua Net titans that came before them. While the guys are great musicians, the profanitylaced songs are often overlooked and overshadowed by the jokes. Guitarist Russ “Satchel” Parrish told singer Michael Starr that he looked like a heavy Bret Michaels, to which Starr quipped back that he was actually a light Vince Neil. They make a living milking every hair metal cliché possible, and the entertaining set they threw down was a perfect way to get the concert-goers rowdy and

ready for “The Metal Gods.” After intermission, the stage exploded with lights in every color, coming from every possible angle. The curtain dropped and the Tacoma Dome erupted with deafening applause in a show of appreciation for the band that has influenced so many. Judas Priest exploded out of the gates with “Battle Cry” and “Dragonaut,” two in-your-face metal songs from this year’s “Redeemer of Souls.” It was a great way to open the show. Even if some in the crowd were expecting a jukebox show full of nothing but past hits, the band incited a great reaction, and plenty of moshing and head banging occurred even if some people hadn’t heard these songs yet. The 90-plus minute, 17-song set did include many of the band’s more recognizable anthems like “Breaking the Law,” “You’ve Got Another Thing Comin’,” “Love Bites” and “Turbo Lover,” along with a few tunes from the newest album. In fact, they played a total of five from the new release. Of course, no proper Judas Priest show would be complete without Rob Halford riding a motorcycle onstage and singing “Hell Bent for Leather.” With a leather whip in hand and his trademark leather Muir cap, Halford sat on the bike for the entire song, belting out the anthem as

legions of faithful metal-heads from the Northwest and beyond yelled the lyrics at the top of their lungs. In case you were wondering how Halford’s voice has held up at 63, he may have lost a very, very slight step; it’s hardly noticeable. He screams damn near as loud as he ever did and can still hit all the high notes. Richie Faulker – a flashy lead guitarist who replaced K.K. Downing in 2011 – was on fire all night, while long-time drummer Scott Travis and original band members Glenn Tipton (guitar) and Ian Hill (bass) were spot on. At the start of the first encore, Halford thanked the Tacoma Dome crowd, then summoned the openers out on to the stage with them for a blistering and highly entertaining version of “Living After Midnight” from 1980’s “British Steel” album, which is perhaps one of the most worshiped and revered metal albums of all time. That album defined a generation and inspired the careers of many metal bands that came after them, including the four members of Steel Panther that helped turn that song into one big jam session. Judas Priest left the stage briefly but returned for the second encore to close the show with “Defenders of the Faith” and the Gods of Heavy Metal proved they still have what it takes to get people slamming into each other for fun and to get heads banging.

GRAMMY WINNER. “The Dude” playing at the Pantages Theater in Tacoma on Nov. 21.

By Glen Casebeer Special to Tacoma Weekly

On a blustery Friday night in Tacoma at the historic Pantages Theater, a much talked-about show took place, because, well, when “The Dude” is in town. people talk. Of course when we say “The Dude” we mean Jeff Bridges, the actor and Grammy–Award–winning musician. Before Bridges and his band, The Abiders, took the stage though, a very likable fella by the name of PK Dwyer came out to warm up the stage. The story goes that Dwyer’s wife made the suggestion that her husband, a professional busker, should go play in front of the Grand Cinema on Oct. 9 during the heavily-attended Tacoma Film Festival. He followed her advice and did just that. He opened his guitar case and started playing, and he attracted the attention of Aaron Stevens, a member of Tacoma band Goldfinch and program manager for Broadway Center. Stevens asked Dwyer if he’d like to open for Jeff Bridges and The Abiders. Yeah, that happened. But make no mistake, this wasn’t just some feelgood story arranged as a publicity stunt. Dwyer is an incredibly gifted musician and proved himself quite worthy of occupying the stage that would soon be full of The Abiders. The half-dozen blues songs that Dwyer played were all gutsy, gritty and played from the soul. He drew a standing ovation from a very appreciative Tacoma crowd. After a brief intermission and a few stage rearrangements, the main attraction took the stage. Bridges and his band made their way to their work stations and started into song with little fanfare. The tone was set that this would be about music and the band and not necessarily about “The Dude.” Bridges has been playing music for most of his

life, and he told the story of how his famous father, Lloyd Bridges, encouraged him to become an actor instead of a musician. The elder Bridges told him that he’d eventually be able to play a musician if he heeded that advice. And while “The Dude” has certainly had the opportunity to play a musician on screen – as in the critically acclaimed 2009 film, “Crazy Heart” – he is now getting to fulfill what he calls a teenage dream, playing his music to people in real life and sharing what he’s had deep inside of him for a long time. On stage, he was warm, friendly and engaging. His band is not a made-forHollywood band either; they joke with each other in a way that only a band of brothers can get away with, and the crowd adored it. The Abiders are clearly a special band, and they wasted no time in taking over the Pantages audience and making them theirs. On a stage that has hosted Franklin D. Roosevelt, Charlie Chaplin and now the iconic figure called “The Dude,” Bridges and company ripped through epic songs like “Blue Car” and “She Lay Her Whip Down.” No Abiders show would be complete without paying homage to “The Big Lebowski,” the movie that is the inspiration for their name. The band played a spirited rendition of “Looking Out My Back Door,” the Credence Clearwater Revival classic that was included in the movie. In a quieter moment, with the stage dimly lit, Bridges explained that one of the favorite movies he’s been in, “American Heart,” was filmed in Seattle. As he sat down in front of a keyboard, he continued to tell the packed house that legendary storyteller Tom Waits allowed them to use the song “Never Let Go.” With an accordion playing softly, Bridges played and sang one of the most beautiful versions of that

song you’ll ever hear. No one in the nearly sold out venue made a noise as he poured his emotion into the tune, but the mesmerized Tacoma crowd roared as he finished. The Abiders drove through epic performances of “Slow Boat,” a thrill ride that features the incredible guitar work of Chris Pelonis and a blues-rocker called “Van Gogh in Hollywood” with Pelonis demonstrating amazing harmonica skills and more extremely tasty guitar work. As The Abiders left the stage, the crowd stood on its feet and roared for the band to return. After a few minutes, the greybearded Bridges sauntered back out onto the darkened stage alone, sitting down on a stool illuminated only by a spotlight and played an extraordinary acoustic version of the soulful ballad, “The Weary Kind,” the theme song from “Crazy Heart.” When the band came back out, Bridges called a friend on stage to sit in with them. As legendary Seattle musician Richard Peterson took the stage, the crowd applauded to show their approval. Peterson, a savant, obliged Bridges’ request to give the people in the seats some “Sea Hunt” music, just before he and the band tore into a brilliant, high-energy rendition of the Byrds classic, “So You Wanna be a Rock and Roll Star.” The band took a bow to thank the Tacoma crowd; Bridges put his arm around Peterson and they walking slowly off the stage. A fitting way to end what was a magical night.

She writes blogs on gardening, ponds, natural health and herbal remedies and teaches classes through Free University (www.FreeUNW.com).

ARIES (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19) Lately your heart has been aligned with carefree pursuits. Romantic thoughts of new beginnings, adventures or change in career have occupied much of your time. Research all of your options before acting upon impulses. Complete any unfinished projects so you can move forward.

LIBRA (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22) This should be a great week for socializing and catching up with friends and family. Reach out to an estranged loved one who may be difficult or cold. Have faith that this situation will resolve itself in time. Give advice and helpful tips to someone who needs help standing their ground.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20) There may be a disagreement between family members or friends that could tempt you to choose sides. Try to compromise the best you can. If you are lucky, all sides may come to a resolution. Good news may be coming your way that may help to increase your potential for wealth.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) You may be eager to get certain matters off your chest this week as your communication sector is fully activated. Your powers of persuasion may tip someone over to your side. This will add to your strategy for long-term success. Remember to save some money for a rainy day.

GEMINI (May 21 – Jun. 20) You may not think you have a lot to be grateful for this holiday season, but you do! When we focus on what we don’t have, we continue to create more chaos in our lives. Instead, appreciate everything – especially the little things. Above all have faith in yourself, friends and family.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Organizing holiday and family events may have you in your element this week. As you are normally generous by nature, this season may tempt you to be more frugal with your gift purchases. Seek out the best deals to maximize your budget without going overboard.

CANCER (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22) You may be inspired by an example from someone. Their generosity has touched your heart and changed your way of thinking about an issue. This may lead you to a different career path, volunteer for a cause or donate to a charity. Follow your heart without losing your head.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Use this time to accomplish tasks and duties around your home that have been neglected. Utilize your spirituality to help you appreciate all that you have accomplished over these past few months – even if you feel you have made mistakes. Don’t be too hard on yourself.

LEO (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22) Perhaps your mind has been on a particular someone, either affectionately or for concern for their wellbeing. Keep up your positive, dedicated thoughts. An alignment could bring out your inner entrepreneur giving insight to a creative business opportunity or change in career.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Mix and mingle with those that inspire and entertain you. Network to enhance business interactions but remember that not all that glitters is gold. This is an excellent time for enhancing romantic opportunities either by adding sparks in a current relationship or finding a new one.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22) Family matters are your main focus as you spend this week filled with many fun surprises. Unexpected visitors are likely to show up during the holiday weekend. Be hospitable and gracious in your entertaining. Draw up your plans and begin preparations for your exciting new venture.

PISCES (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20) Things may seem to be going your way this week. Practical advice from a trusted advisor or friend helps to inspire your current relationship or give insight to help an ongoing issue. The cosmos encourages you to take a leap of faith by opening lines of communication and love.

“Carter & Cookie” Carter is an 8 year old Black DSH, and Cookie is a B&W 10 year old DSH. If you are hoping to make your house even cozier for the holidays, then these two adorable cats might be exactly what you need! Carter and Cookie are a bonded pair, who certainly love some cozy warm purrrr time. Carter and Cookie are buddies who have lived together for many years. When their owner moved away they were brought to us, and we don’t want to split this darling duo up! These cozy cats are a couple who love each other’s company, but also enjoy their privacy and room to sprawl out. Carter and Cookie would be best in a home with plenty of space for their own snuggle spots, and their own large litter boxes. These big love-bugs need a new home where they can truly get cozy. Bring them home for the holidays (and forever) – No adoption fees!! The Humane Society has waived all adult cat adoption fees until the end of the year!
