CHARTER CHANGES ARE NOW UP TO VOTERS By Steve Dunkelberger stevedunkel@tacomaweekly.com

The fate of the city’s constitution is now up to Tacoma voters. Tacoma City Council adopted the slate of 12 charter changes that will now go up for a public vote on Nov. 4. Although the most controversial recommendation – changing the role of the mayor, championed by a majority of the city’s Charter Review Committee – didn’t survive the council’s review process, the list of changes facing voter approval would alter how the city is governed. Two charter amendments would give the city council more oversight of department heads; one

Amtrak’s Freighthouse option chugs forward

CINOTTO HARNESSES KITTEN POWER FOR HUMANE SOCIETY FUNDRAISER

reighthouse Square sits at the center of Tacoma’s past as a railroad hub of yesteryear as well as a potential future hub for passenger rail service as Washington State Department of Transportation officials move forward with plans for the shifting the nearby Amtrak station to the historic building. The Amtrak station needs to relocate from Puyallup Avenue so that its passenger trains can shift from an existing rail line along the west side of Interstate 5 through south Tacoma, Lakewood and DuPont rather than along Commencement Bay and around Point Defiance before heading south along Puget Sound. The shuffle is part of an $80 million roster of projects that will lead to faster and more reliable passenger service trains. That change, to the former warehouse at East 25th and D streets, will shave about six minutes off a train trip between Seattle and Portland as well as cut down on the mostly cargo train congestion around Point Defiance. Locating the Amtrak station at Freighthouse would lead to more trains as well as added convenience by being co-located with Sound Transit’s

Sounder train, which is already located there. WSDOT’s preferred relocation option is to move the Amtrak station to a section in the middle of the 100-yearold former Milwaukee Road warehouse that has served as a retail hub for small businesses for decades. Earlier plans for removing much of the current building and replacing the wood-framed structure with a glass-and-steel structure was met with strong opposition by historians and urban design critics, which forced a reconsideration and revisions to be spun into the current design ideas. Plans to locate the Amtrak station on the East end of Freighthouse Square, which was endorsed by a citizens advisory committee, was deemed too costly to pursue. If the current plan receives approval, a formal proposal

will go to the Federal Railroad Administration for another round of review. Construction could start next year and be completed by 2017. The impact the trains will have on car traffic through South Tacoma and Lakewood remain points of opposition for the shift as well as the loss of waterfront views passengers when the routes

change. “When completed, the Point Defiance Rail Bypass project will bring a total of seven daily round trip passenger trains through Tacoma, Lakewood and DuPont intersections,” the WSDOT report stated, “with an average crossing time of 45 seconds per intersection and a maximum speed of 79 mph.”

ARIES (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19) You usually can jump back and forth from one issue to the next. You may also say one thing one minute and then say the opposite the next. This week others will call you on it so think first before speaking or forming your opinion. Confusion can be like rust.

LIBRA (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22) Have you been finding yourself playing the “victim?” You are the one responsible for your feelings and have the power to change them. Be honest with yourself and remember that it’s okay to be confrontational when you have integrity and self-love on your side.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20) Time to open the channels of communication and let it flow. Realize that the subtle tension in the air is to remind you of those that have caused you pain or irritation. Be the bigger person by treating them with love instead of malice. Let go of your frustrations.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) Deal with tensions right away so they don’t fester. Be in the moment while the moment is there. Clear up any sticky situations quickly and calmly. Some people may not understand your point of view unless you communicate very openly and clearly. Face the present or fear the future.

GEMINI (May 21 – Jun. 20) Stop being an enabler with someone you care about. You can do more harm than good by not being honest with them and yourself. The more we lie the more we can hurt, even if it’s a “white lie.” Be open and honest with your thoughts and feelings.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Have you been hiding behind a barrier blocking those around you? Stop playing those games that get you nowhere. True courage comes from having the ability to say what really needs to be said at the proper time. Sugar coated lies do no one any good. Be true to yourself.

CANCER (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22) Don’t sabotage yourself with overindulgence to feed your self-worth. Remember the old saying: Eat to Live, Not Live to Eat! Use this as your mantra as you develop a healthier lifestyle. Give your body the respect it deserves. Lead others by example.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Stop absorbing the stress from others and focus on your own true feelings. Make a clear distinction between your feelings and those of others’. People aren’t mind readers so be clear with your communications. Sometimes people just don’t get it. Ask for help from others when needed.

LEO (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22) Contributing to unhealthy lies to maintain the status quo doesn’t do anybody any good. Be honest with yourself and bring up issues or speak your mind when appropriate. Don’t sacrifice your peace of mind to avoid rocking the boat. Your opinion matters.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Focus on your heart, as it needs your attention. You may have been feeling negative these past few months and others may be taking notice of this. Getting your point across in a more gentler and informative way will get you farther. Value others’ opinions that differ from your own.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22) This may be an intense week on the family front. A loved one or partner may confront you as a result of an ongoing situation. Don’t underestimate or invalidate their emotions. Stand up to issues yet be realistic of the outcome. Compromise is at hand.

PISCES (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20) Family tensions are high this week. You may feel like you have been double crossed by a loved one. Your words may be used against you in an argument. Clear up the situation by hearing all sides and communicate your feelings or opinion in a calm, clear manner. Hold your temper.

Dogs may think they rule, and in some hearts, and at events like the Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County’s annual Dog-A-Thon fundraiser, they may. But Laurie Cinotto has another narrative, told in purrs and squeaks. Cinotto, a woman of enormous heart, great talent and modest means, has herded more than $400,000 into the working budget of the Humane Society for Tacoma and Pierce County. Her fundraising secret? Kittens. This month, the three kittens Cinotto is fostering are taking a break from daily cuteness to answer phones on the glittery FUNdraiser telethon on her dining table. They hope to bring in $100,000 from across the globe to help pay for, among other services, spaying and neutering shelter cats. It’s a key program that is succeeding in lowering the numbers of kittens brought to the shelter. It coordinates with other efforts, including

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK VISIT US ON FACEBOOK MHJLIVVR JVT [HJVTH^LLRS`

Puyallup and McKinley 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.

FUN AND FOOD AT SOUTH TACOMA GROCERY OUTLET During the month of July, all Grocery Outlet stores will be collecting cash and food donations at checkout for local food banks for their 4th annual Independence from Hunger food drive. This month long campaign is company-wide. In the Tacoma area there are three locations: North Tacoma on 6th Avenue near Mildred, South Tacoma on South 56th Street and South Tacoma Way, and Lakewood on Pacific Highway near Hwy 512. One-hundred percent of donations go to each store’s designated local neighborhood food banks that they partner with on an ongoing basis. Customers voice often that they like donating because every single dollar goes directly to the food bank with no middleman, no outside fundraising company to pay, and no bureaucracy. In fact, a customer has donated $500 in the last three food drives. This year she donated $1,000 all because she says she knows her donation is staying 100 percent local and she “trusts� the fine folks at Grocery Outlet. Grocery Outlet stores are each independently owned and operated. Jessalynn Greenblatt, owner of the South Tacoma location comments, “It’s our way of meeting the needs in our neighborhood and giving back. We are a family run business and we care about the families in our community whom we serve. We can’t think of a better way to show it.�

In order to maintain the levels of service provided by the city’s general fund today, the difference between revenues and expenses is projected to be around $6 million. This shortfall increases substantially if the city were to address deferred maintenance issues and provide funding for other capital and services. The city is looking for ways to close the gap between revenues and expenditures by balancing the need for savings with the effective delivery of core services. Additionally, the City is working to prioritize funding between existing services, deferred maintenance and new and expanded services. A second series of Budget Input Meetings is anticipated to begin in mid-October, shortly after the Proposed 2015-2016 Biennial Budget has been transmitted to the City Council.

MAN SHOOTS OWN WINDSHIELD, BULLET HITS CONVENIENCE STORE By David Rose Correspondent

Pierce County detectives apprehended the shooter who fired a bullet through his truck’s windshield — and into DAVID ROSE a convenience store window — almost hitting a clerk and two customers inside “What’s interesting about

this case is the fact that we have a guy who shot his own windshield out from the inside of his truck, which must have been pretty loud,� says Pierce County Detective Ed Troyer. “We don’t know if he did it intentionally or accidentally, but either way that bullet went through his windshield, through the front plate glass of the store, and lodged into a lottery machine, which could have just as easily been a person, then we would have had a

Youth baseball club’s officers plead not guilty to theft charges On July 16 Ryan Rhoads, 41, and Eric Jacobs, 42, pleaded not guilty to two counts of theft in the second degree, three counts of unlawful issuance of checks or drafts, one count of attempted theft in the second degree, and one count of theft in the third degree. The defendants used a youth baseball club’s bank account to write bad checks for club and personal expenses. Rhoads and Jacobs were released on their personal recognizance. Rhoads and Jacobs are the president and vice-president of Pioneer Pony Baseball, a local youth sports club based in Tacoma. Beginning in 2012, the pair wrote a series of bad checks, on the baseball club’s bank account. The checks, totaling over $23,000, were written after the account was closed or when it had a negative balance. In addition to writing bad checks, Rhoads and Jacobs collected fees for uniforms, which were never provided to the players. “Unfortunately, Pioneer Pony Baseball was a long con,� said Prosecutor Mark Lindquist. “Many members of our community contributed money so that children could enjoy and learn from our national pastime. Their hopes and trust were exploited.� Court records indicate Rhoads has been listed as a respondent in 31 civil cases in Pierce, King and Kitsap Counties, and currently owes over $768,000 in judgments. Jacobs is listed as a corespondent in three of the cases, which resulted in excess of $600,000 in judgments. In October 2013, Rhoads was charged with theft for writing a bad check to pay for $2700 worth of services completed on his vehicle. Charges are only allegations and a person is presumed innocent unless he or she is proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

tragedy on our hands.� This all happened around 2 a.m. on Monday, June 16 at the 7-Eleven on Pacific Ave. S. in Spanaway. Beforehand, the shooter was inside the store roaming around, talking to some people, looking out windows — possibly waiting for somebody. He has some interaction with the woman in pink, where she messes with the back of his grayish camouflage vest at the register. Then, he buys a pack

would require council confirmation for appointments while another would require council confirmation of the Director of Utilities when appointed by the Public Utilities Board and require reconfirmation every two years following annual performance reviews by the board. The council also forwarded changes that would allow emergency ordinances to take effect immediately upon passage rather than after publication. This change follows the controversy surrounding the Union Avenue Wal-Mart construction since the council issued an emergency moratorium against big box stores within the city three years ago only to have the Wal-Mart permits submitted the following morning, ahead of when the moratorium was set to take effect. The permit was “grandfathered in� by just a few hours. The council also endorsed a change that would allow a person to serve two consecutive terms of four years on the council and then two full consecutive terms of four years as mayor rather than tallying a total time in office against the current 10-year term limit. A Citizen Commission on Elected Salaries will be formed to determine the compensation and salary of the mayor and council if the charter amendment is approved.

They heard the sound in the back yard of someone chambering a bullet. They yelled for the suspect to surrender and found a man coming to the front door to talk to the officers. He said the shots were actually coming from a neighbor’s house. Then the officers saw pistol and shotgun rounds littering the man’s yard. He then admitted that he had been shooting his 9mm pistol and his shotgun into the air because he had a bad day at work and wanted to let off some stress. He thought it was safe to shoot guns in a residential area because he was firing them into the air. The laws the City of Tacoma and the laws of physics disagree with this safety minded gun owner. He was arrested. A man who likes the pop and snap of fireworks also heard the click of handcuffs when he was arrested for drunkenly lighting off fireworks on July 7. The man’s lack of independence started when neighbors called police around 11 p.m. about the man setting off fireworks at his house along the 3600 block of East Spokane Street. They had seen the rockets’ red glare and bombs bursting in air as well. They also heard the man’s music more than a block away. They opted for a knock and talk. They found the man well on his way to mental oblivion, beer bottles dotting the porch like puppy poop at a kennel. And there were all those boxes of fireworks. The officers advised the man to turn his music down. He refused in a drunken fit and said that since he was on tribal land, the officers had no authority over him as a “CherokeeGerman.� The officers advised the man to either surrender or face getting a law enforcement sparkler from a tazer. That negotiation won the day. The man was advised that he was actually well within the city limits of Tacoma and that he was under arrest. He then apologized and admitted to setting of $2,000 worth of fireworks every night for the last three days. He went to jail on charges of creating a public disturbance and resisting arrest.

quarantine and visitation rooms that are raising the number of kittens who go to good homes. Together, they reduce the number of cats and kittens who are euthanized for lack of adoptive homes. Cinotto is the founder, the feeder, the artist, the brains, the sole soul maintaining The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee (theittybittykittycommittee. com), a website that has followed some 40 litters of, well, itty bitty foster kitties from their arrival at her house to their departures for their forever homes, and sometimes beyond. She also is a prime example of What’s Right With Tacoma. Cinotto,46, was born in Blue Grass, Iowa, population 1,000, earned her degree in art at Iowa State University and looked westward. In 1993 she moved to Seattle, took a job at Northwest

Wholesale Floral, then at Urban Flowers and learned the florist’s art and business. In 1994, she met Craig Miller, an artist who now works at an advertising agency. They moved to a sweet, cheap and roomy house in Seattle’s Central District where she ran her own business doing flowers for weddings and special events. “We were there eight years, and every year the rent went up,� she said. “We started thinking about Tacoma, and I got this e-mail from Amy McBride.� Tacoma’s ar ts administrator, McBride was organizing a Spaceworks display in the old F.W. Woolworth windows. “I told Amy we were thinking about Tacoma, and the next day she sent us a stack of information all about what was happening

in Tacoma,� Cinotto said. “That was 2001.� McBride made what Cinotto considers a perfect match. “Tacoma is so perfect, it’s the perfect size of a city,� Cinotto said. It’s not just the size. It’s the passion, the imagination, the competence. Tacomans figure out what they want then figure out how to build it. That’s how Tacomans developed Cinotto’s Sixth Avenue neighborhood, for one big example, and how they keep it fresh with events like Art on the Ave. That’s how Miller and Cinotto are re-dreaming their pocket-sized back yard, from planting kiwis, figs and hydrangeas to sledgehammering out a pesky old driveway to make way for an outdoor room. Tacoma is reinventing itself in contagious beauty every day. In much the same way, Cinotto has reinvented her career. She gave up living flowers for paper ones and has advanced to crafting

at the professional level. She develops craft projects made possible with tools by companies like Fiskars, a client. Martha Stewart has featured her in her magazine. And then there is the book, “The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee: The Ultimate Guide to All Things Kitten,� $12.99, available, signed, at Kings Books. Before all that, back in the florist days, came the fostering. Cinotto’s neighbors were volunteering to take very young kittens from the Humane Society, feed and care for them until they were healthy, socialized – and neutered – so they could be returned to the shelter for adoption. “I didn’t know people fostered kittens,� Cinotto said. “I kept visiting them. They had Charlene and her brother. They were so, so, so, so fragile, it seemed like they wouldn’t make it, and he didn’t. I kept visiting them.� A light just went on in IBKC fans’ brains. That frail kitty was THE Charlene. Charlene Butterbean who, at 8, is proud to say that she is not fat. She is floofy. The visits and adoption led to fostering – Cinotto reckons they have had some 200 kittens over the past eight years. At first, she intended the blog to be a fine bit of

storytelling, with pictures of kittens so adorable that anyone seeing them would want to adopt them. She picked a pink background, because all kittens look good against a pink background. She set up a girly vibe, with kittens cavorting in her eclectic vintage dĂŠcor. They look extra adorable in turquoise ceramic vases. Their names are beguiling. “Finding the perfect name is a good way to illustrate who the kitten is,â€? Cinotto said. “I have a list going, jotting things down when I see them. Street signs, French poets, Civil War generals, IMDB. I want the kittens to be represented well.â€? For example, the latest set of three kittens go by the names of Evie, Maeve and Delphine Kibblesmith Pretty soon, all of Cinotto’s friends had kittens, so she switched purposes without messing up the blog. “It was a way to talk about the fostering experience,â€? she said. Volunteers responded. So did a lot of people in Singapore, Italy, France, Finland, California and New York. “A lot of people were coming by because it was a bright spot on the Internet,â€? Cinotto said.

DaVinci Salon and Spa

So she added more ways to interact on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, where you, too, can have a nice chat with Charlene. “She’s got some really funny friends. She likes that,� Cinotto said, and paused. “I spend a lot of my day pretending to be my cat.� In 2009, Cinotto proposed an on-line fundraiser tied to the Humane Society’s DogA-Thon. She volunteered to try to raise $3,000 that would be used for kitty care at the shelter. “Within two days we met it, and I kept raising it.� Fans gave more than $20,000. That paid for the Charlene Butterbean Quarantine room for cats new to the shelter. It’s gone the same way every year: Cinotto sets a goal, fans exceed it, and cats get a new or improved resource at the shelter. A favorite is the Petnia Louise Community Cat Room, where visitors can play with adoptable cats. She calculates the fans have given more than $400,000, and they are only midway through this year’s $100,000 goal. From now until the DogA-Thon at 10 a.m. on July 27, in Fort Steilacoom Park, they are keeping up with Evie, Maeve and Delphine Kibblesmith. They also are going online at firstgiving. com/fundraiser/ibkc/dog-athon-2014 to help pay for a new foster kitten quarantine room at the Humane Society. That room would take up about $75,000 of the $100,000 goal, with the balance paying for cats’ care at the shelter. The Kibblesmiths have serene confidence the goal will fall under the full force of their tiny cuteness.

Jobs Abound in the Dakotas By Don C. Brunell If you are looking for a family-wage job these days, there is no better place to look than the Dakotas . . . but for entirely different reasons. While both states rely on agriculture, North Dakota’s Bakken oil field is driving that state’s economy, which boasts a 2.7 percent unemployment rate. It is the lowest among the 50 states – and there are thousands of jobs unfilled. Propelled by well-paying jobs in its western oil-producing counties, the state’s average annual pay has jumped a whopping 44 percent since 2007. Workers in the oil and natural gas industry earned an average salary of $111,451 last year. South Dakota’s jobless rate is 3.8 percent, far below the national rate of 6.1 percent, and about half the unemployment rate in California and Illinois. Worse yet, nearly 30 metropolitan areas have unemployment rates of over 10 percent. Gov. Dennis Daugaard (R) proudly points out, “During the last five years, our state’s economy has grown by 25 percent compared to the national growth rate of 14 percent.� South Dakota has no oil to speak of, but it does have banking. According to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp., South Dakota holds more bank assets – $2.5 trillion – than any other state. Why is that? During the economic recession of the early 1980s, South Dakota elected officials were desperate to attract outside businesses, so they changed the

state’s usury laws to eliminate the cap on interest rates and fees. In 1981, Citibank immediately moved its credit card operations to Sioux Falls. Wells Fargo and other banks soon followed. Citibank now employs more than 2,900 workers in the city, and it anchors a financial sector that provides more than 16,000 jobs. The city’s population has grown from 80,000 to 164,000. Sioux Falls’ success captured the attention of CNN’s Fareed Zakaria. The host of the Sunday morning program “GPS� is airing a series called, “Where America Works� highlighting five cities. The message: Washington, D.C. may be broken, but problems are being solved in towns all across America. Sioux Falls Mayor Mike Huether (D) told Zakaria, “It’s pretty simple, you infuse compromise, communicate and find common ground and then you get things done. I mean how much more simple can that be and that is absolutely what’s not occurring in Washington, D.C.� Huether, a former banking executive, has managed South Dakota’s largest city to prosperity. Sioux Falls has run a budget surplus over the last four years and has banked a rainy day fund equal to one third of the city’s operating revenue. Through Heuther’s management, creativity and problem-solving approach, city leaders have solved difficult issues that are mired in political gridlock in many big cities. For example, he worked with the city’s

1,100 workers to reform the pension program without a strike. Compare that to the situation in Detroit where the city is bankrupt and has $9.9 billion in unsecured liabilities — including pensions, retiree health care and losses from a disastrous debt deal. He built an events center with lowinterest bonds in which 87 percent of the construction workers were from his metro area. And the city is spending surplus tax revenues repaving streets, expanding thoroughfares and replacing sewer and water lines. While it may be fashionable for politicians to stomp on the banking and energy industries today, the Dakotas are prime examples that those industries are putting people to work and increasing tax revenues for schools, police and fire protection, parks and public assistance to those truly in need. The successes in North and South Dakota send a strong message to our nation’s leaders. With solid management, collaboration and an unshackled economy, America will once again be a place where people can work, support a family and take that hard-earned vacation to Disneyland. Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist. He recently retired as president of the Association of Washington Business, the state’s oldest and largest business organization, and now lives in Vancouver.

Nothing new under the Gaza-Sderot Sun By Julia Chaitin The temperatures keep rising in the hot Gaza-Sderot region; after all it’s July. But it’s not the heat that is making our lives unbearable; it’s the renewed terrifying and senseless violence that within 24 hours spun out of control, affecting Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and points further north. It’s the “here we go again� lethal ping-pong of Israeli bombings in Gaza and rocket attacks on Israeli communities. In the south, we knew that after Prime Minister Netanyahu declared the Hamas responsible for the murder last month of the three boys – Naftali, Gilad and Eyal – Israelis lucky enough to have “safe rooms� would soon be running in their direction. Even though the intelligence branch of the Army knew that the terrorists came from Hebron, the Air Force was sent to punish Gaza. This is the script we know by heart: we go in and bomb, they respond with rockets. It is not always satisfying to be in the know. We in the south have learned that the occasional periods of “quiet� are only temporary. For years, nothing has changed. The blockade on Gaza continues, there is no direct contact between the Hamas and Israeli governments, and the hatred of Israelis and Palestinians toward one another has only grown, since we have no opportunities to get to know one another, as ordinary people. Even though many Israeli politicians have succeeded in convincing most Israelis that we must hate our Gazan neighbors, some of us refuse to believe this “given.� I belong to a grassroots organization, Other Voice, which tries to break this cycle of hatred and violence. Our members all live and work in the area close to the Gaza border. We keep in ongoing contact with friends in Gaza via phone, e-mail, Facebook and Skype – even during these times of war. We share stories about our families and our lives. We hear how Gaza has become a nightmare. When rockets are fired onto

our communities, they contact us to hear if we are safe. We connect through our common experiences of suffering and despair, though we Israelis know that for as bad as we have it, our neighbors have it tenfold worse. On rare occasions, when a friend manages to secure a permit to enter Israel (for example, to go for needed hospital treatment or to attend school abroad), we meet face to face. We are able to look into one another’s eyes, and to give one another a hug. We have the extraordinary opportunity to eat lunch together at the cafĂŠ at the Yad Mordechai junction. We become “normalâ€? neighbors, even if only for one hour. Unfortunately, we have not succeeded in convincing many Israelis to join us in a non-violent path out of this madness. We are usually perceived as being naĂŻve (at the least) or as traitors (at the worst), for not demanding that Gaza be leveled to the ground. Up until yesterday, we who live our lives in a war zone had two options: either live life close to/in a “safe room,â€? or for those who do not have one, leave for “safe groundâ€? when the violence erupts. This second option more or less disappeared yesterday when we learned that the Hamas and the Islamic Jihad possess rockets that can reach distances of 160 kilometers. But even though most of Israel is now in rocket range, it is still wise for those in the south to have an escape plan. It is crucial to maintain good relations with friends and family who live in the northern areas of the country, or to have money for a hotel room when the tzivei adom (red alerts) play their familiar tune. If neither of these are possibilities, then one can hope that kibbutzim in the north will open their doors until things calm down. Being prepared can be the difference between remaining sane or becoming traumatized, or worse, between living and dying. While we Israelis are able to plan ahead, at least to some extent, our Gazan neighbors do not have this luxury; they

have nowhere to run, and nowhere to hide. Our friends tell us that during renewed violence, they congregate in their family home, hoping that if the end is near, at least they will be with their loved ones. I would not want to live the kind of life that they have – being terrorized by the Hamas dictatorship, blockaded by Israel, regularly attacked by the Israeli air force, locked out of Egypt and forgotten by most of the world. However, I am far from happy with my life on this side of the border. Our “leaders� have knowingly put us in harm’s way, while spinning a story that we are protected by the Iron Domes and that by “continuing to be strong� we will prevail. Psycho-social research on the longterm effects of inter-group conflict has shown that by keeping people separated from one another, reinforcing distrust of the enemy and repeating negative stereotypes of people that are not “one of us,� short-term conflicts become long-term intractable ones. Furthermore, when societies are caught up in such perceptions, they only see themselves as victims, losing the ability to imagine a future of peace with the monstrous “other.� Life along the Gaza-Sderot border is a living example of these research findings. In our region, innocent Israelis and Palestinians are being burnt by the rounds of endless revenge. Every boom, every siren chips away another piece of our soul. We are told that history has proven that our peoples can never live together in peace, and that we will only be safe, when the other is destroyed. We in Other Voice say that revenge has run its course. It is time for Israelis and Palestinians to find ways to bask together in the sun of this once beautiful area, and re-write the future history books. Julia Chaitin is a social psychologist and senior lecturer at Sapir Academic College. She writes for PeaceVoice and lives on a Kibbutz in nearby Gaza.

You can now decide on the fate of city government. Well, at least parts of it. The Tacoma City Council dodged the decision about creating a Chief Administrative Officer and separate mayor’s office to manage city operations through a review system by the council that mirrors the federal, three-branch system. But 12 other charter changes will now go for a public vote on Nov. 4. The charter amendments are more tweaks than changes, but they would alter the way the city operates in fundamental ways. The most controversial among them, albeit a bit inside baseball to most, would be changes that would give the city council more oversight of department heads. One amendment would require city council confirmation for departmental appointments, while another would require council confirmation of the director of utilities when appointed by the Public Utilities Board and require reconfirmation every two years following annual performance reviews by the board. Utility watchers say the move would politicize the position by adding oversight by elected officials of a position that should focus on long-range planning and development and not political whims of council members. City hall backers say the move would provide more transparency and accountability for a fundamental municipal service. A more straightforward proposed change would allow a person to serve two consecutive terms of four years on the council and then two full consecutive terms of four years as mayor rather than tallying a total time in office against the current 10-year term limit and serve up to 16 years in elected offices. The change “solves� a calendar issue with the current chartered term limits, where two-term council members would not be able to then “step up� with a run for mayor because they would only have two years left before they would be term limited out of office midway through the four-year term. Toss in the staggered timing of elections and the 10-year cap gets confusing. The two-term cap for council members and mayor streamlines that, but also extends into “career politician� territory the potential time local elected officials could serve. An effort to balance that perception at least is a change that would create a Citizen Commission on Elected Salaries to determine the compensation and salary of the mayor and council instead of being left to the council itself. Heck, the city already has two dozen commissions, panels and task forces, so one more won’t cause too much trouble. One change many Tacoma residents wish the city had years ago would allow emergency ordinances to take effect immediately upon the ordinance passage rather than after the ordinance’s legal notice is published. Walmart ducked under an emergency moratorium against big box stores within the city when it sought building permits for the Union Avenue location by submitting its construction plans the morning after the council passed the moratorium but ahead of when the legal notice outlining the moratorium was published. The permit, therefore, was “grandfathered in� and allowed to proceed. The rest of the charter amendments facing voters are rather straightforward. They are largely updates to bring the city charter into compliance with state law and policies such as using gender-neutral language and deleting obsolete terms, expanding the definition of discriminated classes by adding color, ancestry, gender-identity, sexual orientation, familial status, honorably discharged veteran, and military status to the list. One change would remove citizenship and city residency as requirements of eligibility for city employment, while another would end the prohibition against new cemeteries, mausoleums, or crematories within Tacoma. Another would create a Landmarks Preservation Commission, but one already exists.

CORRECTION

In our July 11 cover story “Spirits of Tacoma speak at living history cemetery tours,� the phone number for Tacoma Cemetery was incorrect. The correct number is (253) 472-3369. We also neglected to credit Tacoma Historical Society for its important contribution to the tours. Tacoma Weekly apologizes for these errors.

DEFENSE SEIZES THE DAY FOR NATIONALLY RANKED PUYALLUP NATION KINGS

T

wo football teams with loads of post-season aspirations ran headlong into each other July 12 at Chief Leschi Stadium, and the game remained in doubt for most of the contest. The Puyallup Nation Kings scratched and clawed their way through their toughest match-up of the season thus far and pulled-out a 14-0 victory over a determined Puget Sound Outlaws club. As the end of the regular season looms, teams in the Western Washington Football Alliance are jockeying to score the best seed into the playoffs, and while the Outlaws are nearly a lock to make the post-season, they were trying to sew-up a berth against the league-leading Kings. The Kings entered the game (and remain) ranked fifth in the American Football News Today rankings and had strung together six straight blowout victories. It was a gut-check game for them and as usual, the Kings’ defense came through for them when their offense found their hands full with a stout and athletic Outlaw defense. Known as “The General” to his teammates and possibly the largest and most imposing linebacker in the Puget Sound, Nick Noga broke a scoreless tie in the waning seconds of the third quarter, when teammate Vikah Lefeau punched the ball out of the hands of the Outlaws’ Naaman Springs, and Noga snatched the ball up for a 53-yard return for a touchdown. The 6-3, 285 pounder bolted untouched down the sideline for his third defensive touchdown of the season for the Kings. Four minutes into the fourth quarter cornerback Treisaun McCurry grabbed his second interception of the game, leaping high into the air on a deep pass attempt from Outlaw quarterback Justice Waite and came down with the ball at the Kings’ 25-yard line.

CHENEY STADIUM A TACOMA TREASURE By Gary M. Peterson Special to the Tacoma Weekly

Holding onto a 6-0 lead, quarterback Justin Southern directed the Kings on a 4 minute, 75-yard scoring drive which was capped by a 17-yard pass to Nico Curran in the end-zone. The acrobatic catch was not without drama as it was an incredibly close play next to the sideline and it took the referees several moments to determine what call they were going to make. Following the touchdown, Southern fired a quick pass to running back Donald McKee who just got over the goal-line for a 14-0 Kings lead with 6:56 remaining in the ballgame. With the shift in momentum, the Puyallup defense ramped-up their pressure on Waite and limited him to just one completion the rest of the game. It should be noted that Waite was playing quarterback in just his third game and had Kings defenders chasing him all

around the field. Despite being sacked eight times in the contest, Waite’s scrambling probably saved another ten. Nick Noga ultimately sent Waite limping to the sidelines with sack number eight and with little time left in the game, the Outlaws faced fourth down and 26 yards to go. Springs came in to take over at quarterback and his long pass down field missed his target and the Kings victory was sealed. Puyallup’s defense held Puget Sound to 25 yards on 18 rushing attempts and kept Waite off-balance and on the run throughout the game as he completed seven passes in 19 attempts for 82 yards passing and two interceptions. Defensive end Darius Dennis was a constant force in the backfield and had his hand in on four quarterback sacks. Although they came away with the X See KINGS / page A9

As a frequent visitor to Cheney Stadium in Tacoma for over 50 years, I can say that I have never been more impressed than I was on July 3 with the quality of baseball, the stadium itself and the crowd-pleasing hi-jinks that kept fans entertained throughout the game that evening. Although owning a win-loss record slightly under .500 at the time, the hometown Rainiers performed at a Major League skill level, both defensively and at-bat throughout the game in defeating a very good Reno team in front of a large and enthusiastic crowd. In fact, the skill level displayed by both teams was equal to any that I’ve viewed at Cheney Stadium since the advent of Pacific Coast League baseball here in 1960. The fact that the Tacoma roster was dotted with players who have already performed at the Major League level, I’m sure was a significant factor in this beautifully played baseball game, which Tacoma came from behind to win. Not only was the game itself of Major League caliber, but the stadium has never looked better. The playing surface is carefully manicured and exciting changes and additions have been introduced at the park. The former bleacher seats on the left and right field lines have been converted to party deck and grassy-slope viewing opportunities for fans. The addition

SOUTH SOUND FC BUCKLES <7 -69 >03+ -050:/ SOUNDERS U-23 CLOSE-OUT

By Justin Gimse jgimse@tacomaweekly.com

A

s the curtain draws to a close on two premier soccer league seasons, one Tacoma team remains in the hunt for a league championship while the other looks toward next year’s fortunes. The South Sound Shock FC slipped at home on July 10 against the Seattle Stars 2-0 and with it handed over the leaguelead to the Spokane Shadow. With 26 points, the Shadow now leads the Shock

and the Vancouver Victory FC by one point in the Evergreen Premier League standings. A title is still up for grabs for all three clubs, but it will take some help and some grit to get there. Spokane holds their own fate with two matches remaining and has the benefit of hosting both, but it will be a true test for the Shadow. The Seattle Stars travel to Spokane for a July 19 Saturday night tilt and then the Shadow must turn around less-than 22 hours later as they host a dangerous Wenatchee United FC.

South Sound is not without championship possibilities, but the club will have to win it all as road dogs when they span the expanse of Interstate-5 over the same weekend. The Shock will go up against two clubs that are quickly becoming their heated rivals in this inaugural EPLWA season. Friday night the Shock travel north toward Canada to square-off with Bellingham United FC and two days later close-out the season down south against Vancouver. South Sound toppled Bellingham, replacing them at the top of the

standings June 1 at home with a 2-1 victory and Bellingham has never recovered since. The Shock will have their hands, or feet, full Friday night. Vancouver dropped a tough match against the Shock 4-1 May 24 at Harry Lang Stadium. Apparently the club is not incredibly fond of South Sound FC after the hosts ejected several Vancouver supporters (known as the Vanguard) after the visitors lit off dozens of smoke grenades in the stands. While the use of smoke devices is within EPLWA rules, X See SOUNDERS / page A9

Following the 11th stage of the Tour de France, Tacoma native Tejay Van Garderen is sitting in seventh position, the highest of any United States cyclist. The 21-stage Tour de France concludes on July 27. The 25 year old is a member of the international BMC Racing Team. This season is proving to be the best yet for Van Garderen who finished second in the Tour of Oman, third in the Volta a Catalunya and sixth at the Tour of the Basque Country. There are 10 events remaining on the 2014 UCI World Tour.

The Northwest’s most intimidating MMA fighter, Brent “Mankill� Knopp (5-0), is stepping back into the cage July 19 for CageSport 31, looking to defend his middleweight title for the second time, taking on Idaho’s Will Noland (8-4). Knopp and Noland have emerged as the top two middleweights in the Northwest and Noland will get his first crack at the West Coast’s premier MMA middleweight title. Tickets for CageSport 31 at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma are on sale and can be purchased at the EQC box office and at all Ticketmaster outlets. Prices start at $35 and fans are encouraged to get their tickets early as CageSport has exploded in popularity regularly selling-out the 1500 seat EQC showroom. At CageSport 30, a title eliminator match between Alfonso Gonzales and Jared Torgeson took place with the winner, Alfonso Gonzales, getting the opportunity to fight Brent Knopp for the middleweight title in July. After defeating Torgeson, Gonzales took a fight with Legacy promotions thus taking him out of consideration for the July middleweight title fight.

The Tacoma-Pierce County Volleyball Officials Board is in need of individuals who are interested in officiating middle school, junior high, senior high, college, and recreation department volleyball matches throughout Pierce County. A comprehensive training program, starting August 21st, is offered for all new officials and the opportunities to advance in the organization are extensive. For students, retirees, or former athletes looking to re-connect with a sport, officiating high school and middle school sports is also an excellent way to earn some extra income and provide a great service to the teams. Registration is due no later than July 21st so time is running out. For additional information on becoming a volleyball official, please visit www.tpcvob.com or contact Marc Blau at (253) 677-2872 or mhblau@comcast.net.

Replacing Torgeson is Idaho’s Will Noland who will be making his CageSport debut. Noland has won six of his last seven fights and has all the momentum he can ask for riding into his match-up against the CageSport middleweight champion. Brent Knopps’s fight moniker, Mankill, has been backed up and proven throughout his five CageSport appearances. All five of Knopp’s wins have come via TKO/knockout usually being ended by devastating hammer fists that his opponents are still figuring how to defend. Knopp’s most recent fight may have been his most memorable yet, taking on StrikeForce veteran, Cory Devela, in a fight that featured two sluggers using every ounce of energy. Midway through the fourth round, Knopp prevailed, getting the TKO victory and the first sense that he has the potential to become a national MMA star. Nine undercard fights are also scheduled throughout the night, featuring the West Coast’s best up and coming professional MMA fighters. Doors for CageSport 31 open at 6 PM with the first fight scheduled for 7 PM.

all ages to Cheney Stadium and transforming an experience that was, frankly, of high interest mostly to an older audience, to one that now appeals to the young as well. Certainly Cheney Stadium and the Triple-A baseball played there are a huge plus for Tacoma and Pierce County. City and county government, team management and the parent Seattle Mariners have done a wonderful job in creating a high-quality facility and baseball product for the people of this area. City and county residents should be proud of their stadium and their team. I encourage everyone to visit beautiful Cheney Stadium and enjoy this fine game of baseball played by highly-skilled athletes.

From page A6

of seating, which rises above the left field wall and over the relocated bullpens, has converted Cheney from a “Ballpark� to a true “Stadium� in my view. Lastly, the high-definition video board which rises above the outfield wall keeps fans continually interested even when the action on the field slows. At the July 3 game, younger fans squealed with delight when their images appeared on the screen. It was obvious that team management has found a powerful tool in drawing fans of

W Sounders apparently it doesn’t fly in Lakewood. Vancouver can sneak out an EPLWA league championship if Spokane loses both of their matches, the Shock loses against Bellingham and Vancouver gets a win over the Shock. The EPLWA is set up as a winner-take-all “English Premier League� type organization where the point leader at the end of the season is crowned the champion. There are no playoffs. It was bad luck and poor timing for the Shock July 10 against the Stars. The club was without several players due to injuries, including top goal scorers Joey Gjertsen and Scotty Hanson. It proved to be too much as the Stars fought through a surprisingly physical match in Lakewood to pull off the upset. While a few Shock players suffered some rough fouls, it was the Stars that spent

significant time sprawled out upon the field after some hard shots. In all, 12 Stars hit the deck and stayed there for awhile throughout the game. Meanwhile, across town, the Sounders U-23 are wrapping up a solid, somewhat disappointing season. With just one game remaining – a July 16 Wednesday night tilt against their rival and league-leading Kitsap Pumas - just after Tacoma Weekly press time – the Sounders U-23 will bid adieu to an impressive roster of young college and international standouts. It was a promising but tough season for the Sounders U-23 as the top three teams in the league ran out to a solid points

lead and would never relinquish it. Kitsap, Victoria Highlanders FC and the Vancouver Whitecaps FC U-23 all qualify for the Premier Development League playoffs with the Portland Timbers U-23 a full seven points out of third place and the Sounders U-23 another three behind their rival to the south. The Sounders U-23 put together a high-quality roster this season that seemed to still be finding its way late into the season. There are several future stars on the roster including Jordan Morris, Mo Dumbuya, Luis Esteves, Clement Simonin, Niko Hansen and Michael Bajza; to just name a few. Be on the lookout for their return to the club next season or possibly a bigger stage at the professional level in the near future.

loss, the Outlaws put up an impressive display on the defensive side of the ball, limiting the potent “Showtime� Kings offense to 189 yards of total offense. “This was a measuring stick for us,� said Puget Sound’s head coach Richard Warren. “They have been blowing everybody out and we knew our defense was there at that level. We’ve got a new quarterback in just his third game and he’s still growing. Now we’ve got two more home games coming up, so hopefully when we get that offense gelling it’s going to be a nice run in the playoffs. “The game plan was to keep it close in the first half and see where the chips fall in the second. It was a big chess match. I know my team and they’re going to be hungrier than ever now because they want to see these guys again. We’re hoping this was the preview to a championship game.� Quarterback Justin Southern was sacked four times but looked healthy after returning from a shoulder injury that had sidelined him for three weeks. Southern finished with five completions on 15 attempts for 71 yards with one touchdown and an interception by the Outlaws’ Cameron Bailey. “It took a little while to get back into the groove of things,� said Southern.

“Missing some games and so many practices due to injury set me back a little.� With the win, Puyallup moves to 7-0 in the WWFA league standings, followed by the Pierce County Bengals and Renton Ravens both at 6-1. Puget Sound drops to 4-3, but looks to have a playoff spot sealed up with the Thurston County Mayhem trailing at 3-4 and the Cowlitz County Blackhawks at 2-5. The Puget Sound Outlaws will host the Blackhawks Saturday July 19 at Lakewood’s Harry Lang Stadium at 5 p.m. Meanwhile, the Pierce County Bengals are heavily favored as they host the Washington Cavaliers at Sumner’s Sunset Stadium the same night at 6 p.m. Puyallup hosts the struggling Northwest Cardinals July 19 at 5 p.m. The Cardinals began the season 3-0, but have since dropped three straight in their inaugural season in the WWFA. The Kings and the Bengals will square off on the final weekend of the regular season at Sunset Stadium on July 26 at 6 p.m. “They blitzed a lot and had some fast guys,� said Southern. “Our offensive line is big and I think we need to take advantage of that more. The good thing is we can play a lot better. We didn’t play our best game of the season on the offensive side of the ball, but the defense played great. I think next week things will be a lot better.�

two BBQ societies: Pacific Northwest Barbecue Association (PNWBA) and Kansas City Barbecue Society (KCBS). Both have area members. KCBS has over 19,000 members with more than 450 annual contests. Smokin’ HOT RibFest will feature BBQ competitors: Big Daddy’s Family BBQ, Enumclaw; Bonanza BBQ & Catering, Puyallup; Rescue Mission, Tacoma; Up in Smoke; Auburn. Those attending will be able to purchase tastes of the ribs or full BBQ meals. There will be more food options, plus additional vendors including Ila’s Foods, Touchstone Crystal Jewelry, It Works! and more. The public will be voting for People’s Choice and Best Booth. Rescue Mission of Tacoma benefits from this event. “One of the reasons I began producing food competitions is the ability to give back. Rescue Mission has been selected as the non-profit to be featured at RibFest. A percentage of the BBQ proceeds of rib tastes and meals will go to them and help feed others through the mission,� Stearns said. In 2013, Stearns took over Washington State Chili Cookoff as event coordinator. Moving from northern King County to Pacific Beach, attendance doubled. This year, the event is moving to Emerald Downs on Saturday, Aug. 16. This cookoff features Chili Red, Chili Verde and Salsa. A new category, Homestyle, began in 2012. Washington state added this category in 2014. Homestyle Chili Cookoff at Hometown Throwdown was June 14 at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma. Coordinated through 100.7 The Wolf radio, this cookoff sanctioned 10 competitors. Winner was Sue Simons, Roy. She qualified to advance to World cookoff in October and has also chosen to compete at the Washington State cookoff. “We had wonderful response at Homestyle and chili was gone in two hours.

This inaugural event benefits the Rescue Mission of Tacoma and will be 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the showfield at the museum, across from the Tacoma Dome. After consulting with two major BBQ associations, BBQ competitors in Washington and outside the state, event producer Cynthia Stearns elected to bring this BBQ event to Tacoma. “I researched what areas of the state would bring the major BBQ competitors to us and also had the region to support an event of this caliber,� Stearns said. “Tacoma was a natural match. We see potential to draw from the state of Washington, across the borders from Oregon and Canada and beyond.� BBQ competitions have a large following including

competed in the chili cookoff (Rescue Mission won People’s Choice and Up in Smoke won Best Booth). Chili and BBQ are big families and we look forward to adding more to each through these events,� Stearns said. In addition a “Smokin’ HOT Garden� will be included at Smokin’ HOT RibFest. It will feature product from Heritage Distilling of Gig Harbor and Gingko Forest Winery with a Tacoma tasting room. Proceeds from the garden will go to Southeast Tacoma Lions Club. Sponsors include LeMay-America’s Car Museum, Heritage Distilling, Rescue Mission of Tacoma, Southeast Tacoma Lions Club, Ty Ray with Beat & Eats Podcast, Hanif Pollock with Enterprise Rent-a-Car of Lakewood and Ila’s Foods.

PUYALLUP TRIBAL IMPACT SUPPORTING THE ECONOMIC GROWTH OF OUR COMMUNITY

The Puyallup Tribe’s donation of $200,000 to Northwest Harvest will help keep food on the table for countless struggling families.

Considered among the most urban of Native American tribes, the Puyallup Tribe of Indians has grown to be a critical component of the South Sound economy. As Pierce County’s sixth-largest employer, a donor to a broad range of charitable organizations, and a major funder of housing, roads, education and environmental projects, the Puyallup Tribe stands as a model for taking care of not only its own membership but sharing its wealth among the broader community as well. The Puyallup Tribe is one of the largest employers in Pierce County, with a payroll of more than 3,300 people

– 74 percent of whom are non-Native. Working in the Tribe’s businesses, government, economic development corporation, school, and health and housing authorities, these employees enjoy competitive wages and benefits. In 2012 the Tribe spent more than $445 million. This spending supports communities by providing good wages and generous benefits to individuals, and through purchases of goods and services from local suppliers, vendors, contractors, construction companies and more. Even during the recession, the Tribe increased employment and funded substantial vendor purchases and construction projects,

keeping many businesses afloat and people employed. As the country continues to recover from past economic woes, the Puyallup Tribe of Indians leads the way locally. From sponsoring dozens of local charities, nonprofit organizations, social welfare projects and events that may otherwise suffer or cease to exist, to protecting the environment, funding crime prevention, city improvement projects and health care, the Tribe maintains its commitment to honoring its well-deserved reputation as “the generous people,� a reflection of the meaning of the Tribe’s very name.

Support For Our Native Community To the Puyallup Tribe of Indians, the word “communityâ€? means more than their own membership circle. With more than 4,600 Puyallup tribal members locally and across the country, and an Indian population of more than 24,000 in the tri-county area, the Puyallup Tribe takes great pride in continuing its ancestral ways by caring for Native American people across the board. HEALTH CARE The Puyallup Tribal Health Authority (PTHA) opened in 1974 and today offers a wide variety of services annually to a patient population of more than 12,000 from more than 200 tribes. Services provided include medical, pediatrics, dental, pharmacy, laboratory, radiology, mental health counseling, tobacco cessation programs, problem gambling programs, and alcohol and drug treatment programs. Following the vision of continuous improvement, the Health Authority recently completed a 10,000-square-foot expansion, and is in the process of a renovation project that at completion will provide much needed clinical space by adding 13 exam rooms, six pediatric exam rooms and three dental operatories. PTHA was the first tribal clinic in the country to start an Osteopathic Family Medicine Residency in 2012. It began with two residents, and it was quickly recognized that expanding to four would go a long way toward filling access gaps. Four new residents began training in July. The residency will reach full capacity in FY15 with 12 residents. The vision of this program is to train new doctors to work in Indian Country with full understanding of how health is affected by the cultural, environmental and familial aspects of tribal communities. “We want to train healers not just technicians,â€? said Clinical Director Dr. Alan Shelton, MD. PTHA received national attention from the White House when President Obama addressed PTHA’s great success in a speech at the 2013 Tribal Nations Conference (in part): â€œâ€Ś[T]he Puyallup Tribal Health Authority in Washington state created the country’s first tribal family medicine residency program. Patients are cared for in a culturally sensitive way, often by Native American staff. And we’re seeing results – a young physician caring for a revered tribal elder; a doctor who has delivered babies in the community for years, and now his son is also doing the same. And that’s creating more quality health care, but also sustaining bonds between generations. That’s progress that we need to build on.â€? ELDERS Caring for their elders is a top priority for the Tribe, with $4.5 million spent last year on elder care services. The Tribe’s beautiful House of Respect Elders Center – a $13 million facility opened in 2009 – stands as testament to the Puyallups’ deeply held reverence for their elder membership. The center, located on a historically significant site above the Puyallup River, offers a variety of health and rec-

reational options for Puyallup elders over 45 years old. YOUTH For the youth, the Tribe works to proactively instill positive values in its young members as early as possible through several important means: Puyallup Tribal Community Center – This 34,000square-foot facility includes a 15,000-square-foot gymnasium and other areas for youth activities. The facility will also accommodate gatherings for meetings, weddings, funerals and cultural activities. Chief Leschi Schools – Providing a Native-focused academic environment for children in pre-kindergarten through high school, Chief Leschi Schools serves Native American students from more than 60 different tribes with current enrollment of approximately 890 students. As one of the largest Bureau of Indian Education (BIA) schools constructed in the nation, the 200,000square-foot school is intended to be a model for Native American programs around the country. Grandview Early Learning Center – Providing quality and culturally appropriate early childhood care for Native children in the community, during 2013 Grandview Early Learning Center served more than 120 families and 210 children.

Education opportunities within the Tribe don’t stop there. For its members seeking higher education after high school, or their general equivalency degree (GED), the Puyallup Tribe ensures that funding is available for tuition assistance, books, tutoring and more. HOUSING Believing that everyone deserves a comfortable home to live in, the Puyallup Tribe and the Puyallup Nation Housing Authority (PNHA) strive to provide safe and sanitary housing for Puyallup tribal members and other Native Americans. During 2012, the Housing Authority spent more than $4 million providing housing assistance to approximately 150 households. The recently completed Phase II of the Northeast Longhouse project in Tacoma added another 10 townhomes to the complex for a total of 20 townhomes. These housing units were built in an energy efficient manner and are culturally relevant to the community. Beyond providing safe and affordable housing, the Longhouse project also revitalized a struggling neighborhood. As the project came together, a long-stalled construction project across the street started up once again. Today, new singlefamily homes are now for sale on non-tribal land across the street.

Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival gets

bigger, heads outdoors this year

THE LINE-UP. (Clockwise from top left) Performers appearing at this year’s Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival include Rich Wetzel’s Groovin’ Higher Orchestra, Vicci Martinez, Palmer Junction and Little Bill Engelhart. By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

T

he Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival has had its share of growing pains over the years. When local band leader Rich Wetzel and Tacoma City Councilman Doug Miller founded the event in 2003 – initially calling it the Tacoma Jazz Festival – it was held at Broadway Center. But steep theater rental fees rendered it unsustainable, Wetzel recalled, and organizers pulled the plug in their third year. It returned as a free event, coinciding with the popular Daffodil Festival in 2006; but the biggest logistical hurdle was having stages spread out between the Dome District’s Freighthouse Square and the Swiss Tavern and Harmon Pub downtown. “It was almost a little too spread out,” Wetzel admitted. “It was really tough. You would say (to patrons) you could ride the light rail for free. But still, it was kind of a challenge.” This year, Wetzel and a new group of collaborators think they may have gotten the formula just right. The new, improved Tacoma Jazz and Blues Festival is set for July 26, and it’s been re-imagined as a sprawling street festival that will take over two blocks of South Tacoma Way, between South 54th and 56th streets. “I’ve always had this vision of it being kind of like a Beale Street thing where it’s just all on one street,” Wetzel said, referring to Memphis’ most legendary strip. “So I mentioned the idea to Jeff Call (the owner) at the Stonegate – just kind of on a lark – and Jeff loved it.” This year’s event – also co-produced by Junkyard Jane’s Bill Stoops and Irwin Design owner Stephanie Irwin – will feature an outdoor main stage for the first time with music kicking off at 1:30 p.m. with local blues and garage-rock legend Bill Engelhart, a.k.a. Little Bill, and The Bluenotes. Making her first appearance at the event is Tacoma singer-songwriter Vicci Martinez – an alumna of NBC-TV’s “The Voice” – who is back from Los Angeles playing a flurry of regional dates this summer.

“I wanted to make sure we went a little broader (with booking) just to be appealing to a much wider audience,” Wetzel said. “So we’ve really got a strong lineup, on the outdoor main stage in particular. It all builds up and builds up to my band, which is a 15-piece jazz, rock, Latin and funk big band, which is real high energy.” Rich Wetzel’s Groovin’ Higher Orchestra will headline the main stage at 8 p.m. followed by a second set at Stonegate Pizza, with renowned Bay Area trumpeter Mike Vax, returning from last year’s event, and trombonist Jiggs Whigham sitting in on both performances. Most tickets are $20 in advance, $25 the day of the event, and patrons have to be 21 or older to get in. Advance tickets can be purchased through the festival website, www.tacomajazzandblues.org, by calling the event hotline, which is 1 (800) 838-3006 or in person at the Stonegate Pizza & Rum Bar or Dawson’s Bar & Grill.

This production features real-life mother and son Syra Beth Puett and Robert Puett as Miss Daisy and her son Boolie, and Malcolm J. West as Hoke. Directed by Julie Halpin.

A Weekend of Celebrations:

ART ON THE AVE

This year’s Art on the Ave was a blast with blocks of local vendors and musicians, all with the backdrop of iconic Sixth Avenue behind. It was one to remember with scorching temperatures and many attractions. On July 13, Sixth Avenue was in full swing with festivities by noon. Thousands of music and art lovers attend each year and this year was no different. The theme this year was “Operation Epic!” and delivered true to the theme with live music acts, art installations, vendors, the Grub

Crawl and a carnival with rides. With 111 vendors, five entertainment stages, four temporary art installations and six carnival rides, there was something fun for every age. Eleven restaurants and bars on Sixth Avenue participated in the annual Grub Crawl, which was fun for patrons as always. With The Ave fully engulfed in art and music for the day, everyone seemed to be having a great time and the events theme was achieved. The 2014 Art on the Ave “Operation Epic!” was a success.

OUT IN THE PARK:

Tacoma’s Annual LGBTQA Pride Celebration July 11, 12, and 13 had the perfect weather for the 2014 Tacoma Pride Festival. With temperatures peaking in the 90s, citizens from all over the Pacific Northwest came in the thousands to celebrate the pride of the LGBTQA community in downtown Tacoma. The festivities kicked off on Friday evening with the pride flag being raised and a speech by Mayor Marilyn Strickland to open the ceremonies. Saturday, with the sun beaming down on Broadway, people came adorned in rainbow attire and festive costumes to enjoy

and celebrate together no matter what their sexual orientation. With musicians playing all day long and two different music venues on the street, the event was a hit. Keynote sponsor Puget Sound Mini Cooper added a fun attraction with a rainbow themed display of Mini Coopers. Delicious food vendors, great entertainment and fun people were all present at one of the most colorful summer festivals in Tacoma. Wright Park was also in full swing on Saturday with event goers enjoying the Washington summer sun and great people.

EXPRESSIVE. “Weight of the World” is one of the visionary paintings of Kerry Cole currently on display at Handforth Gallery. By Dave R. Davison dave@tacomaweekly.com

T

acoma artist Kerry Cole is a selfprofessed “seer.” “I talk to ghosts and furniture,” says her artist’s statement. “I think bugs have feelings and I paint what I feel coming from others, whether they be actual people, people I see in my dreams or sense around me coming through other dimensions.” The concept is reminiscent of certain statements by English artist and poet William Blake who claimed to see spirits and was able to make detailed portraits of them. Over a dozen of Cole’s richly colored paintings are currently on display at the Tacoma Public Library’s Handforth Gallery. Cole’s paintings are mostly of female faces set off by flowery, flowing hair and feathery fashion accessories. Lush red lips lure the viewer in. Cole has a gift for painting expressive, soulful eyes that gaze out from the flat surface of the painting. In works like “Weight of the World,” all of Cole’s hallmarks are present. The figure depicted has pale skin and vivid lips. Rusty

tears run down from wide-spaced eyes. A fiery nimbus surrounds the figure. A tiny house and a group of tiny mountain climbers are on the shoulders of the woman. Cole’s style is akin to a kind of doodling that a teenager might do on sheets of paper while lost in daydreams. Cole, however, has taken it to the next level with jewel-bright color and accents of gold leaf or collage elements. A personal favorite is “Oh Deer!” This small painting is one of Cole’s stylized heads equipped with a pair of orange antlers and set upon a pasty white deer’s body. “Sidewalk Confession,” a portrait of a pink poodle, has the allure of black velvet paintings of dogs and children with big, sorrowful eyes that were popular in the 1950s and 60s. Set alongside Cole’s work is a show of enhanced Polaroid snapshots by Tom Holt. Taken in Europe, Florida and locally, these intimate, gem-like works are a great complement to Cole’s lavish paintings. The show runs through July 30. Get out and see it while you can. For further information visit www.tacomapubliclibrary.org or www.kerrycolefineart.com.

Sat., July 19 & Sun., July 20 (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.) Crafts of the Past – Woodturning and Powder Horns

Glenn Sutt is a multitalented craftsman. He built his first muzzle-loading rifle in the living room of his apartment in 1978. Later, he became an accomplished maker of powder horns, embellishing the functional horns with detailed wire inlay scrimshaw and carvings. More recently, he began to turn wood. Glenn will be demonstrating a foot-powered woodturning lathe and making powder horns. Visitors will get a chance to work on a powder horn and see the lathe in action. Glenn is active in numerous heritage groups, and is president of the Fort Nisqually Foundation. Each weekend through Sept. 28 a different artist will be “in-residence” at the Fort with displays and demonstrations of their work. Most will also offer visitors the opportunity to try their hand at the specific art form.

Upcoming Exhibits: July 26-Nov. 23 , Archaeology at Fort Nisqually

Pieces of ceramic, metal and glass tell a story about the everyday life and labors of the men and women of historic Fort Nisqually. This exhibit features fragments of plates and tea cups, bottles, toys and game pieces, buttons, earrings and brooches, and other material found from both the 1833 and 1843 Fort Nisqually sites. These fragments provide a glimpse into the habits and life styles of the people that made up the first European settlement on Puget Sound. Some of the fragments have been reconstructed into nearly whole artifacts. Reproductions and period pieces help illustrate what other fragments looked like when whole.

NOLAN GARRETT UNVEILS NEW GAME

Find something fun and different every week at Stadium Fare

L

ooking for a way to shake things up a bit, teenage Tacoma guitarist Nolan Garrett and his camp decided to try something new and innovative in the music industry. This campaign is called Single Scavenger Hunt, and it’s a game that allows fans of his band – or anyone else for that matter – the chance to participate in the success of his six new singles, as well as have the opportunity to win a private concert with Nolan and his band. The game was announced at Tacoma’s Art On The Ave festival on July 13. Garrett explains, “The singles will be released roughly one week apart until we’ve done all six. The download cards will be available for purchase and that will allow the buyer to get the single from iTunes, when they get it up on the site.� Garrett explains that he and his manager, Raymond Hayden, came up with the idea as a way to get people excited and engaged. “I’ve done a lot of research on what is and isn’t working in the music business and decided I wanted to give the fans music more often,� he says. Rather than make them wait for a full-length album, they decided to release the singles one at a time. “We wanted to do what would get the fans involved, and we talked about it (and) this sounded like a fun idea,� he says. The idea of releasing singles instead

of a full-length album has been catching on in the last few years, although the idea of combining it with a game is certainly an interesting twist. Bands are always looking for new ways, especially now, to get people buying music as the industry continues to sell less and less as a whole. “We wanted to create something that would be fun for the fans over the summer, get their attention and get them involved,â€? Garrett continues. This campaign has seven parts, the poster – which doubles as a game board – and the six singles on download cards. As each new single is released, it will be sold as a download card, which is also a puzzle piece on the poster. Each download card will have one part of an address. The sixth and final single’s download card will have the final piece to the puzzle, thereby providing an address to the grand prize. Once the address is identified the contestants are encouraged to get to that address. Then they need to find the person wearing the “BRING THE FIREâ€? T-shirt and tell them specifically: “I’m here to bring the fire with Nolan!â€?‌The person in the T-shirt will provide a clue as to where the grand prize is hidden on location. The first one to solve the Single Scavenger Hunt game will be the winner. The grand prize winner will get a free, two-hour concert with Garrett and his band at the home of the winner, special merchandise such as CDs, download cards, guitar picks as well as the opportunity to win other prizes.

ransitioning a summer event into a yearly tradition is easier said than done, but Stadium Fare looks to accomplish this while riding a wave of momentum into its second year. Stadium Fare offers an alternative to the farmers markets that focus more on the artisan side of Tacoma, allowing creativity to flow in a safe, comfortable environment, providing both fine art and fine food from more than 20 vendors on the two final Saturdays of July, August and September from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the First Presbyterian Church across from Wright Park on the corner of second and ‘G’ streets. “I’d like to encourage people to come out and see opportunities for vendors, people that want to play music or tell fortunes or tell jokes – anyone who wants to get in front of a broader group of people, we’d love to have them come out,� Stadium Fare co-founder Ethan Wing said. The idea came about when Wing, a New York native, was reminded of Brooklyn market Smorgasburg and thought a similar event should be brought to Tacoma. “Tacoma is a pretty creative little town. It’s filled with people that are being creative in all sorts of interesting ways, and they don’t have a ton of outlets. There’s no way to share creativity with the broader community. The more we get into this the more we realize in our heart of hearts that this is what [Stadium Fare] could be. “I have a hard time imagining that we could do something like this in a different city. It’s small enough, it’s open enough that you can create things seemingly out of thin air, like this market. That simple fact speaks to the character of this city. We don’t have to deal with all the stuff Seattle has to deal with and ultimately

that’s liberating,� Wing said. This year, the Fare is looking to get bigger and better as it continues to expand. Each month will feature a different theme day on the final Saturday including Country Western in July, Happy Days in August and Mardi Gras in September. “We are so excited to be able to do so much more than last year,� Fare Manager Nadine Larsson said in a press release. “We laid the groundwork for a great yearly event, and we’re looking forward to a season that will far exceed our expectations. Tacoma has so much talent and we love being able to provide an outlet for locals to showcase their goods and skills.� Other events include an upcoming silent auction at the July 26 market and a scavenger hunt on a date to be determined to support local businesses. “We had great first attendance, which kind of dropped off. We wanted to think up something fun and different every single week,� Marketing Director Leah Knoll said. The Fare already has 25 different vendors scheduled for the first Saturday of the season, and is expecting to add a few more contributors every week and is constantly on the lookout for more volunteers. “We’re inventing it as we go. We spent a lot more time and effort to reach out to people so that they know we’re there,� Wing said. The Fare saw a lot of success in 2013 due to the renaissance of Tacoma art that has taken place in recent years. “The creativity, the willingness to be wrong and the willingness to learn; it’s a very resilient population and people that understand community and the importance of buying local. We are local, we’re the roots of local, come on down to Stadium Fare and water your roots,� Larsson said.

NEVER ENOUGH. Tacoma’s own Leezy Soprano will headline a CD release show at Jazzbones July 20. By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

One of Tacoma’s most promising hip-hop artists, Leezy, will drop his new album, “Never Enough,â€? on Sunday, July 20. To mark the occasion, the rapper will headline a CD release show that day at Jazzbones. Recently, we met up with the rapper (born Timothy Tanks) to break down his new sounds and his quest to put Tacoma on the hip-hop map. “A lot of the time, Tacoma gets overshadowed by Seattle,â€? he said. “A lot of people know about Tacoma - like you hear us shouted out a lot in music by artists Like Schoolboy Q ‌ and E-40. But we just wanna get heard and put the city on and let them know we’re talented over here, too.â€? Discography: “Never Enoughâ€? is the rapper’s fourth disc. Fans can also download his previous albums, “Knoe,â€? “United We Ballâ€? and “All Due Respectâ€? on iTunes or at www.leezysoprano.com. What’s in a name? The “Leezyâ€? in his stage name is derived from “lay,â€? as in “he’ll lay you out.â€? “I got that in the streets from fightin’,â€? he explained, “getting in fights and laying people out. You know, just kid stuff.â€? Well, maybe if you’re Floyd Mayweather. Diehard fans may know

him as Leezy Soprano, though, the second half of his moniker inspired by the late James Gandolfini’s character from HBO. He recently shortened the name after reflecting on the Sopranos’ not-soevolved views on race. Plus, a ton of other rappers had the same idea. “There’s Sopranos from everywhere – Sopranos in Portland, a Soprano in Seattle,� he said. “It’s over-saturated now.� Y-Lyfe: Drake’s motto is “Y.O.L.O.� Tupac had “Thug Life,� and Leezy has “Y-Lyfe� - as in “Young Life� - a slogan that appears in several cuts. The name comes from a clique he and his friends formed at Lincoln High School. “It’s really like a Young Lifestyle,� he said, “what it feels like to be young and free to do whatever you want, be your own person and not really have to answer to anybody. I know a lot of people living young lives, and they’re happy.� It’s also a brand of clothing he sells at shows. Based on actual events: Many of his hard-boiled lyrics are based on trials he’s faced in real life. “There’s a song called ‘Anything’ on (the new album) where I talk about a lot of issues and a lot of my friends that I’ve lost. It’s kind of a letter to my friends, tellin’ ‘em how their sons are doing, how much I miss them and

stuff like that. I just try to stay true to myself, really. I couldn’t really do music about something that I’m not really living. I get the substance from my life.� Pushing boundaries: Leezy recorded “Never Enough� at Pacific Studios with Tacoma producer Tryfe, who pushed him out of his comfort zone with unorthodox beats and a rapid-fire recording schedule. “We set out to do this project in a week,� he said. “I did a lot of writing in the studio, and it was long nights and early mornings until it was done. “That’s never how I work, but I definitely wanted to challenge myself; and I found, in doing that, that it builds a lot of momentum. I was able to do songs at a fast pace and really good songs. I didn’t even think I could do it, but after I made the 12 songs I was like, ‘Man, we can keep goin.’’ Live band: Like the Roots, Beastie Boys and other hybrid hip-hop acts, Leezy has started performing with a full band, the D1 Experience. “I’ve done the live band a couple of times at comedy shows. The (Jazzbones) show’ll be crazy. I’m doing half band, half DJ. I’m doing a lot of songs from my new project, and then a lot of my known songs with the band.� Show details: Sunday’s bill will also feature Rocky Sandoval, Lil Ripp and Clemm Rishad, half of the Writer’s Block, the Tacoma duo best known for penning Nicky Minaj and Rihanna’s hit, “Fly.� Doors will open at 8 p.m. with music starting at 9, and tickets are $10; www.jazzbones.com for further details.

“Lukeâ€? This week’s Featured Kitty is a boy who is as beautiful on the inside, as he is on the outside. Luke is a gorgeous 7 year old Lynx Point & white cat who is ready to go home.

Once Luke is given a chance to shine, you will see that he could be the perfect addition to your family. He will love to curl up on your lap for a siesta or play with some toys. Luke came from a quite household and ZRXOG SUHIHU WR Ă€QG DQRWKHU +H KDV KDG OLPLWHG H[SRVXUH to children and has never been around other pets, a slow introduction would be necessary! This guy will go fast, fall in love with Luke today! Reference #A486852
