HATE WON’T WIN GranddauGhter of Charleston shootinG viCtim to brinG power of forGiveness at plu-sponsored marCh and festival

By Zach Powers

S

outh Sound residents of numerous ethnicities, political persuasions and religious convictions will gather in Tacoma’s Hilltop neighborhood on Saturday, Aug. 1 for the 5th Annual 1000 Man Family March & Festival.

This year’s event will feature a special guest, Alana Simmons, whose grandfather, Daniel Simmons, was one of the nine victims in June’s deadly shooting in Charleston, South Carolina.

Simmons made national headlines when she, along with family members of other victims, confronted and publicly forgave her grandfather’s killer, Dylann Roof, in a South Carolina courtroom just days after the massacre.

“Hate won’t win,” she said to Roof.

“My grandfather and the other victims died at the hands of hate. Everyone’s plea for your soul is proof that they lived in love and their legacies live in love.”

Shortly after her courtroom appearance, Simmons shared why she decided to offer Roof her forgiveness in an interview with CNN’s Don Lemon.

“If we would have gone up there (to the front of the courtroom) and said hateful things to the suspect, that wouldn’t have changed anything, that would have been giving him exactly what he wanted,” Simmons told Lemon.

“We know our relatives and our loved ones, and they wouldn’t have wanted that,” Simmons explained.

“They spoke love, they preached love and they lived in love.”

At the 1000 Man Family March & Festival, Simmons will share about the power of forgiveness and raise awareness about the #HateWontWin campaign, a social media initiative she launched with her siblings to carry on the legacy of love left by her grandfather and the other victims.

“When Alana and those other family members forgave that young man it

was a moment that clearly illustrated how we can, and we must, love our way through our most difficult conversations,” said PLU Director of Multicultural Recruitment Melannie Denise Cunningham.

primary ballots due by auG. 4

By Steve Dunkelberger stevedunkel@tacomaweekly.com

Ballots are due Tuesday, Aug. 4 for the Primary Election of who will move on to the General Election in November.

The primary could also decide the fate of the controversial idea of consolidating many of Pierce County’s governmental services into a yet-to-be constructed building on the site of the former Puget Sound Hospital in Tacoma’s Eastside. The county-wide advisory measure simply asks voters if Pierce County should proceed with the financing and eventual construction of the proposed Pierce County General Services Building. The outcome of the vote is not binding, however.

Two Tacoma City Council seats, from the Northend’s District 1 and from Hilltop’s District 2, will drop to the two top voter getters from the Aug. 4 election.

Incumbent Councilmember Anders Ibsen is facing challengers Tara DoyleEnneking and John Hines for the District

1 seat.

Hilltop’s Council District 3 is an open race among Whitney Brady, Justin Leighton, Tom McCarthy, Kris Blondin, Valentine Smith, Keith Blocker and Robert Hill. Current Councilmember Lauren Walker is term-limted out for running again.

Since only two people, Conor McCarthy and Suzanne Skaar, are seeking the Position 7 at-large seat, they will automatically move on to the general Election. Incumbent David Boe opted not to seek reelection. Councilmember Ryan Mello is running unopposed for his at-large Position 8 seat.

Position 2 on Tacoma’s School Board has incumbent Catherine Ushka facing Will Jenkins Sr., Antonio Wyatt and Robert (Bob) Bearden. Andrea Cobb, Alisa Regala O’Hanlon and David Carnahan are seeking the Position 4 seat.

Pierce County is also in the election mode for its 21-member committee that will develop changes to the county’s charter. Parts of Tacoma are included in five of the county’s seven districts.

Tacoma now has a revamped system for people to report petty crimes, and the system could include even more features with help from the people who use it.

The City of Tacoma’s online crimereporting system has been available for a decade. The new system, called Tacoma Safe that launched over the weekend, allows people to use various web browsers and even mobile devices to report, non-emergency crimes.

The previous system was created when Microsoft’s Internet Explorer was king, so could only be used by crime victims who used that web browser. Things have changed since 2006 with the rise of Google Chrome

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK

North 8th and Steele Street Tacoma has a tremendous pothole problem, and the residents 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.” 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 continue those efforts.

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.

Bulletin Board TACOMA ACTIVATES WATER SHORTAGE RESPONSE PLANS Historic low river levels – combined with record-setting hot and dry weather that have significantly increased the demand for water – have led Everett, Seattle and Tacoma to implement the first stage of their water shortage response plans. The three cities are all activating their response plans as a precautionary measure and have joined together to ensure that the entire region is ready for a potential water shortage.

Tacoma’s normal use of the Green River for summer demands is being heavily augmented with groundwater wells in this unusual year. This shift allows water stored from the Green River to be primarily dedicated to protecting fish. Although Tacoma’s modeling shows supplies adequate to meet instream flow and customer demands, initiating stage 1 of the Water Shortage Response Plan will provide a cushion.

“With the help of our customers, diligent monitoring and coordination with natural resource agencies, we believe we can make it through this extraordinary year with enough water to meet the needs of people and fish,” said Mayor Marilyn Strickland.

Tacoma Water supplies water directly to about 316,000 people in Tacoma, University Place, Ruston and areas of unincorporated Pierce and south King counties. It also serves relatively small areas within the cities of Puyallup, Fircrest, Lakewood and Bonney Lake. Through wholesale connections, Tacoma Water serves water to people in Auburn, Bonney Lake, Fife, Puyallup and parts of Pierce and King counties.

The first stage in each city’s response plan is “advisory.” It’s issued when utilities believe a potential water supply problem may exist. During this time Everett, Seattle and Tacoma are asking customers to carefully manage their water use and make sure they are not wasting water.

Important examples include: • Watering early or late: Water before 8 a.m. or after 7 p.m., which reduces evaporation.

• Watering deeply, but infrequently: It’s better to have one or two deep waterings, rather than several shallow waterings.

• Fixing leaks: Fix obvious indoor and outdoor leaks such as at faucets, hose bibs and sprinkler spray heads. Check for less obvious leaks such as silent toilet leaks. Put several drops of food coloring in your toilet tank; after 10 minutes if you have color in the toilet bowl, you have a flapper leak.

• Washing vehicles wisely: Wash your vehicle(s) at locations that recycle their water.

• Using a broom, not a hose: Use a broom, rather than a hose, to clean sidewalks, driveways and patios.

• Washing full loads: Wait until your clothes washer and dishwasher are full before starting.

Find more water saving tips at www.savingwater.org, www.everettwa.gov/conservationtips and www.tacomawater.com/smart.

All three cities are making operational changes and activating supplementary water supplies – all in an effort to stretch their water supplies as far as possible.

Everett, Seattle and Tacoma are all fortunate to have robust water supplies that allow the water utilities to meet customer needs for water and contribute to healthy fish populations. Available supplies this year have declined more quickly than is typical.

Activating response plans is a prudent management step given current conditions and supply outlook. Everett, Seattle and Tacoma work collaboratively on a wide range of water supply, treatment and resource issues. Collectively, these areas serve close to half the state’s population, and each draws its primary water supply from watersheds on the western slopes of the Cascades. If conditions worsen, each city may move to the “voluntary” phase of water shortage response and ask customers to reduce the amount of water they normally use each day.

A weekly report on Tacoma’s water supply is available at MyTPU.org/Water Supply.

WALK TACOMA HOLDS SCAVENGER HUNT Explore downtown Tacoma by following clues, answering trivia, and completing challenges on the Walk Tacoma Scavenger Hunt on Wednesday, Aug. 5.

Participants will begin the scavenger hunt between 4:30-5:30 p.m. at the Washington State History Museum Plaza at South 19th and Pacific Avenue. They will use public transportation, their feet, or a bike to take them to destinations scattered across downtown Tacoma before meeting back at the plaza and heading to Anthem Coffee & Tea for food, drinks and prizes at 6:45 p.m. The Downtown On the Go event, sponsored by Pierce Transit, is free and there is no need to pre-register. All ages are welcome.

Participants may complete the hunt as individuals or in teams. Many of the destinations on the hunt have been featured during the 2015 Walk Tacoma series or in the Walk Tacoma Downtown Walking Maps (available at the event).

Participants will be asked to take a photo at many of the locations, so a digital camera or camera phone is required.

For exclusive sneak peeks at some of the clues, follow Downtown On the Go on Facebook and Twitter.

Prizes will be awarded to participants reaching certain point levels, including loaded ORCA cards and local gift certificates. The highest scoring individual and team will each win a grand prize.

Since this is the final Walk Tacoma event in the 2015 series, Downtown On the Go will also be rewarding participants who have participated in the Walk Around the World campaign, with a Walk Tacoma T-shirt.

Walk Tacoma 2015, sponsored by CHI Franciscan Health, is a nine-event walking series held on first and third Wednesdays, from April through August. The fun, themed walks, now in their sixth year, encourage people to enjoy downtown on foot by introducing new walking routes and sharing information about the community and its history through the guided tours. The walks are scheduled at the lunch hour and just after work to encourage downtown employees to walk during their workday, whether it is to and from work or at a lunch break.

For more information on the full Walk Tacoma Series, visit www.downtownonthego.org or find us on Facebook or Twitter.

SR 167 CLOSURE ACROSS PUYALLUP BRIDGE BEGINS AUG. 7 Drivers who rely on the State Route 167 Puyallup River Bridges (Meridian) are encouraged to plan for delays and alternate routes during the weekend of Aug. 7. Both the northbound and southbound SR 167 bridges that span the Puyallup River will be closed to traffic while crews relocate an obsolete steel truss bridge. The 1920s-

era bridge was replaced in June because it had reached the end of its useful life.

• All lanes of northbound and southbound SR 167 (Meridian) will close from 8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 7, through 5 a.m. Monday, Aug. 10, at the Puyallup River Bridge.

• During those times, crews will also close the southbound SR 167 exit leading to the southbound bridge as well as 4th Street and Levee Road under the bridges.

• Signed detours via SR 512 and area roads will direct motorists around the closure.

Moving the 379-ton bridge will be a complex and timeconsuming process. Crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation will lift and methodically place the old bridge truss onto the new northbound SR 167 Puyallup River Bridge. The span will be taken, via a system of dollies, to a nearby WSDOT property where it will be stored for up to four years.

WSDOT’s goal is to recycle the truss by offering it for another purpose, perhaps on a pedestrian or bicycle trail. If unsuccessful, WSDOT will recycle the steel.

Drivers traveling through Puyallup can help avoid delays by: • allowing extra time to reach destinations • traveling early in the morning or late in the evening • considering rescheduling discretionary trips

POLICE SEEK PUYALLUP STREET ROBBERY SUSPECTS

By David Rose Washington’s Most Wanted - Q13 Fox

Puyallup Police are trying to identify a woman and two men suspected in a violent attempted robbery.

Detectives worry that the three may strike again.

Tyra Morris was walking down the street DAVID ROSE when the woman jumped out from behind some bushes. “She said, ‘Drop your stuff or I will shoot you,’" Morris said. Morris will never forget those terrifying words. “My whole body started shaking,” she said. The suspect was seen on surveillance video getting out of a black Mercedes.

She positioned herself behind some bushes along 5th Street SE, waiting for Morris to walk by.“She had her hand in here,” Morris said, adding that the suspect looked like she was hiding a gun underneath her jacket. “I screamed and said no, and ran into traffic.

I think she was surprised as much as I was because I screamed so loud,” Morris said.

Puyallup Det. Mike Lusk said, “We have multiple suspects involved even though the female is doing the robbery.” The surveillance camera outside 5th Street SE is not the only camera that captured the suspects.

Nearby businesses told police they spotted the same suspects inside their stores. Surveillance pictures from inside a Puyallup Walmart show the woman with two men who are believed to be her accomplices. “These are dangerous people; we do not need them on our streets,” Det. Lusk said. “She looked to me like what I would envision strung-out to look like. I pray that you get help before you get killed,” Morris said.

If you recognize the suspects, you are urged to call Crime Stoppers of TacomaPierce County at 1 (800) 222-TIPS (8477).

All calls are anonymous and there is a cash reward of up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest. This is one of the cases featured Friday night on Washington's Most Wanted at 11 p.m. on Q13 FOX and Saturday night at 9:30 on JOEtv and 10:30 p.m on Q13 FOX.

HEALTH DEPARTMENT SAYS THINK TWICE ABOUT E-CIGS

Trying to get out of an arrest based on your own version of a technicality when you’re very drunk probably isn’t the wisest decision. However, a woman decided this was her go-to strategy at a South Tacoma Way business on July 25. After being banned from the local establishment, police were called to the scene when the woman refused to leave.

After explaining to the visibly intoxicated woman that she couldn’t be on the property, and that she would be arrested if she came back, she claimed she understood and made the smart decision to apparently leave. As police exited the scene, they noticed the woman by the back door of the establishment she was banned from. As the woman was being arrested, she claimed she was just in the parking lot, clearly something that shouldn’t count. Police disagreed and the woman was booked into Pierce County Jail for criminal trespass.

Of course, the other route to dealing with businesses you’re banned from is just to avoid all sense and get angry.

That’s what a criminal did at a Pacific Avenue restaurant on July 23. The man, who confirmed with an employee that he was banned form the establishment at a prior date, took a seat near the door and simply yelled profanities at the sole worker whenever he asked him to leave.

Police arrived and arrested the man for trespassing due to his prior ban. As he was being transferred to Pierce County jail, the man told the arresting officer that he knew he was banned from the establishment, but he simply didn’t care.

Tacoma-Pierce County Health Department wants you to “Think Again, Pierce County,” when it comes to e-cigarettes and vaping.

To reach people with health information about e-cigarettes and their dangerous effects on youth, the Health Department launched an educational campaign earlier this week that includes a web site, www.thinkagainpiercecounty.com, billboards, advertising on Comcast and Click!, Pierce Transit bus and shelter ads, movie theater ads and a Facebook page.

“Nicotine is addictive, and e-cigarettes are nicotine-delivery vehicles,” said Director of Health Anthony L-T Chen, MD, MPH. “People who start using nicotine products when they are young are likely to become addicted for life, and tobacco companies are

VEHICLE ARSON

Pierce County Sheriff’s detectives need your help identifying the suspect responsible for an arson. At 4:35 a.m. on Friday, July 24th, 2015, the pictured suspect and an accomplice were seen running from a Fridays at 10:30pm on

vehicle that was fully engulfed in flames. The vehicle was parked outside of a tattoo shop in the 11200 block of Pacific Ave. S. in Parkland at the time of the fire.

Investigators believe the suspects lit an object on fire, then threw it on the roof of the car’s convertible soft top. The vehicle was completely destroyed by the fire.

The suspect appears to be a white male in his 40’s or 50’s, with a medium build and facial hair. He was seen wearing blue jeans, a dark colored zippered hoodie with blue sleeves, and a light colored baseball hat worn backwards.

Our View

court Should get tough with lAwmAkerS The Washington Supreme Court decided three years ago that the state’s formula for funding basic education was not generating enough money “to make ample provision for the education of all children in Washington,� which the state’s Constitution calls its “paramount duty.�

That means all other duties lawmakers have to do on behalf of the voters that put them into office to represent them are secondary to funding education, and the state’s highest court ruled lawmakers had failed that one job.

And they have continued to fail. The Supreme Court then gave lawmakers time to find a way to finally do their job. And they failed. The court held the Legislature in contempt of court, a cloud that hung over the marathon session earlier this year.

Yet lawmakers failed. Again. That inaction prompted the Supreme Court to call lawmakers back into court to state their case on why they continue to fail the children of Washington by not funding education – their one job, ahead of building roads, hiring public safety officers or attending freebie tours of the U.S. Open on a sunny summer day during the legislative session to see the impact of tourism on Puget Sound’s businesses.

The court has few choices but to come down hard on lawmakers, since solutions seem as absent as the lawmakers' will to do right by the residents they were hired to represent.

State Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn this week filed a brief with the State Supreme Court, urging justices to take firm action on education funding. There seems no other course than that. Lawmakers have had three years to come up with a plan to properly fund education and have only made baby steps and promises for future increases through some undefined scheme and undefined amounts. “Every elected official, including me, is required to take an oath of office,â€? Dorn said. “Part of that oath is, ‘I do solemnly swear that I will support ‌ the Constitution and laws of the state of Washington.’ Many people don’t understand that our state Constitution explicitly mentions one — and only one — paramount duty: that the state ‘make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders,’ and that the system of public schools shall be general and uniform. The most recent budget passed by the Legislature doesn’t even come close to that. In fact, it ‘increases’ the state’s dependence on local levies, which the Court has ruled is unconstitutional.â€?

See, rather than fully fund education at the state level, lawmakers tossed in a few dollars to local school districts and then allowed them to expand their ability to ask residents for school funding directly.

A 3 percent cost-of-living adjustment legislators approved before the session closed isn’t an increase in school funding. It is simply making good on agreements already in place just to keep up with the rate of inflation. It’s just money to stand still. Standing still is not progress.

Since one regular session and three special sessions came and went without a deal on public education funding, yet another session would not likely bring a final deal, but we probably have to go through the motions under the false sense that lawmakers actually care about doing their jobs.

So be it. But when that last, last, last effort fails, the Supreme Court would get medieval on lawmakers and simply take away the authority of drawing a paycheck or passing bills or raising money for elections until a deal is done. “Some people think this is a funding issue,�

Dorn said. “But it’s bigger than money: It’s about civil rights. We have to make sure that every student — every student — has access to an ample education.�

Lawmakers had one job. And they failed three times, while working on other issues and touting them as victories. That’s like showing off a shiny new car they just washed and waxed when their job was to actually drive it somewhere.

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor, In response to “Are Voting Rights For All Voters? Let’s Ask Hillary� in your July 24 paper, I am intrigued that the author Jacqueline Salit is so negative toward Secretary Clinton. She writes that Clinton supports restoration of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, but does not speak out on the rights of independent voters. States should be Ms. Salits’ targets that have voted for this. In the State of Washington we have an open primary, not closed. She should investigate what states have closed primary systems and find out why the citizens voted for it. To put this on the shoulder of Hillary Clinton sounds more like a campaign ad against Clinton than a factual article about why states have decided to have closed primary systems. I do agree with her that Independents should have a voice in all elections. In fact a lot of Hillary supporters are Independents.

Salit blasts Hillary in eight paragraphs and the Republican nominees in one. As co-captain for the Hillary Campaign in Tacoma I take issue with this bias article and urge you to have fairness in reporting.

cAnAdiAn PortS eAting our lunch

By Don C. Brunell

Unfortunately, Seattle Congressman Jim McDermott (D) was correct earlier this year when he said Canada’s west coast ports are “eating our lunch!�

Both Washington and British Columbia are blessed with deep water seaports that are closer to Asian markets than those in California, the Gulf states and our nation’s eastern seaboard. There is a rich trade tradition in the Northwest, and for many years, the ports of Seattle and Tacoma were preferred by shippers because they could move large volumes of cargo rapidly.

However, things have changed, and the pace of those changes will accelerate in the years ahead. The gap will widen if our state and federal governments don’t address critical infrastructure needs – highways, ports, harbors, railroads and security – and expedite permitting.

Here’s why.

Last year, ocean-going cargo containers grew by 11 percent at Prince Rupert, British Columbia as shipping companies seek the fastest route to move goods to and from Asia. Even though Prince Rupert, the deepest natural seaport in the Northwest, is 1,000 miles by road north of Seattle, it is 68 hours closer to Shanghai by boat than Los Angeles.

By contrast, cargo volume at the Port of Seattle dropped 26 percent from 2010 to 2013; the Port of Tacoma’s volume is unchanged since 2008.

The Federal Maritime Commission,

By Robert C. Koehler

the agency tasked with regulating America’s international ocean transportation system, reports that roughly 87 percent of the containers received in Prince Rupert were hauled by rail to the U.S., mostly to Midwest states.

As more and more bulk cargo, such as wheat, coal, potash and refined petroleum, is shipped overseas, those products are leaving the docks in British Columbia, not Washington and Oregon. That problem will worsen if planned U.S. projects continue to languish in the permit approval process as Canada expedites building new terminal capacity.

The bottom line is that the growing volume of bulk cargo passing through Washington by rail won’t stop here.

Those products, the jobs and economic opportunities will continue to shift north of the border.

Last December, the Wall Street Journal reported that port congestion at the Seattle and Tacoma ports, labor tensions at U.S. west coast docks, and America’s container tax spurred shipping companies to look to Canada’s ports.

While Congress and our state legislature debated needed highway and road funding, the Canadian government spent $1.22 billion (U.S) over the past decade to improve rail and road access and boost inspection capacity. The provincial governments and private sector sources kicked in another $2 billion.

Canadian National Railway Co. has invested nearly $3 billion since 2010 to cut travel times along its western

corridor and has added new container terminals in Illinois and Wisconsin to receive Midwest-bound goods.

Meanwhile, our federal harbor maintenance tax, which shippers say costs anywhere from $25 to $500 per container, is crippling American ports.

The Federal Maritime Commission believes repealing that tax would likely allow U.S. ports to win back as much as half of the business now going to Canada.

On the brighter side, the Canadian competition pushed the ports of Seattle and Tacoma to seek legislation allowing them to invest in super docks to handle the mammoth Panamax ships, and the legislature finally passed a transportation funding bill to help relieve congestion. BNSF is investing $189 million in railroad improvements this year.

The volume of cargo handled at British Columbia’s ports has jumped 46 percent since 2006, while our west coast traffic grew only 3.8 percent, according to the American Association of Port Authorities.

That should be a wake-up call for us and prod our elected officials to act before it is too late and there is no lunch to eat.

Armed inSecurity

â€œâ€Ś no real security, just powers of retaliation.â€?

This was Norman Mailer, four-plus decades ago, writing in “Miami and the Siege of Chicago� about the obsessive security measures – “helicopters riding overhead like roller coasters, state troopers with magnums on their hip and crash helmets, squad cars, motorcycles� – at the Democratic and Republican national conventions, which, uh, didn’t actually provide security, but sure allowed us to get even afterward.

This is still the unnoticed insanity haunting the American news cycle, whether the story being reported is domestic or international. As a society, we’re armed and dangerous – and always at war, both collectively and individually.

We’re endlessly declaring bad guys (officially and unofficially) and endlessly protecting ourselves from them, in the process guaranteeing that the violence continues. And the parallels between “them� and “us� are unnerving.

Mohammad Abdulazeez opened fire at a naval reserve training facility in Chattanooga and killed five people.

He was suffering from depression and possibly radicalized by ISIS. Fox News headlined the story: “Tennessee gunman was armed to the teeth and ready for war with America.� The story pointed out that he was a naturalized American citizen born in Kuwait.

A few days later, a gun shop owner in Florida posted a video on YouTube declaring, with the Confederate flag in the background as he spoke – summoning the spirit of Dylann Roof’s murder last month of nine AfricanAmericans in Charleston, S.C. – that his store, Florida Gun Supply in Inverness, was now a “Muslim-free zone.� “I will not arm and train those who

wish to harm my fellow patriots,� he said, paradoxically espousing a weird, racist form of gun control.

He also said: “We are in battle, patriots, but not only with Islamic extremism.

We’re also in battle against extreme political correctness that threatens our lives because if we can’t call evil ‘evil’ for fear of offending people, then we can’t really defeat our enemies.�

Ray Mabus, U.S. Secretary of the Navy, spoke of the shootings with less clarity about the nature of the enemy: “While we expect our sailors and Marines to go into harm’s way, and they do so without hesitation, an attack at home, in our community, is insidious and unfathomable.�

Yet a few days later at least 10 Afghan soldiers – American allies – died “at home, in their community� when the checkpoint they were manning in eastern Afghanistan was taken out in a U.S. helicopter strike, which the Afghan regional commander described as “a very big mistake.� He pointed out to the Washington Post that the strikers should have known they weren’t attacking the enemy because it happened in daylight and “the Afghanistan flag was waving on our post, when we came under attack.�

Well, you know, collateral damage and all. These things happen. But somehow the deaths of these soldiers didn’t cause the same stir the Chattanooga killings did, though the victims’ lives were equally precious and were cut short in an attack that probably seemed, to them, equally unfathomable.

But, whereas the Chattanooga shootings were a “horrific attack,� the friendly fire killings were an “incident� – just like all the other bomb and missile killings, accidental, intentional or whatever, of civilians in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere over

the last decade and a half. The Wall Street Journal added that the incident “threatens to strain relations� between the U.S. and its allies in the war that has no prospect of ending, but added that “the airstrike is under investigation,� which is the epitaph of choice for news stories about to be buried for eternity.

All of which leads me back to the Norman Mailer quote, that we have no real security, just a massive power to retaliate. This is the nature of armed self-defense. In order to feel like they have some control over an unfathomably complex world, many, many people – inspired by the governments they either revere or despise – categorize large swaths of the human race as bad guys, who therefore need not be regarded, or treated, as fully human.

As I wrote several years ago, speaking of the “moral injury� that so many vets bring home from their war service: “Killing is not a simple matter. It’s not a joke. The argument can be made that on occasion it’s necessary, but military killing is not about self-defense. Soldiers are trained to kill on command, and this is done not simply through physical preparedness exercises but through dehumanization of the enemy: a cult of dehumanization, you might say. Turns out we can’t dehumanize someone else without dehumanizing ourselves.�

And the more that people lose touch with their own humanity, the more, I fear, they will feel the need to be armed – desperately imagining it’s the same thing as being secure. And the news cycle will continue, endlessly bringing us more of the same.

cultivating a sustainable market for their product,� said Chen.

Much about the relatively new e-cigarette technology remains untested, unproven and unregulated, even while those under 18 are using them in record numbers.

Currently one in five Pierce County 10th graders uses these products – double the number who smokes cigarettes, according to the 2014 Healthy Youth Survey.

According to the investigative report "Gateway to Addiction? A Survey of Popular Electronic Cigarette Manufacturers and Marketing to Youth," tobacco companies spent $59.3 million on marketing e-cigarettes in 2013, double the prior year's spending. “Stores on every street corner

are advertising and selling e-cigarettes and e-juice,� said Chen. “The stores and manufacturers want youth to think that these products are cool and safe. They are not.�

The Health Department is making a much smaller investment of $85,000 over the next eight weeks to get people to think more carefully about these so-called alternative tobacco products. The Department is also conducting surveys at local community events such as National Night Out and meeting with local community groups and officials to get input on possible local regulations to limit youth access to e-cigarettes and vaping.

The Board of Health will consider implementing more stringent local regulations on e-cigarettes later this fall. “Unfortunately, the state legislature failed to pass measures that would protect our youth from e-cigarettes, but our local Board of Health is not going to wait to protect

our youth,� said Pierce County Council Member and Board of Health Vice Chair Rick Talbert. “We are concerned about the alarming rate at which youth are choosing to use nicotine delivery products and the potential impact on their health,� he said.

Those under 18 are prohibited from purchasing e-cigarette products. But enforcement of this regulation is not funded in Pierce County, and many stores are selling these products regardless of a buyer’s age.

Nicotine is harmful to youth because it is addictive and impacts normal brain development. E-cigarette juices come in a variety of flavors such as chocolate and cotton candy that are meant to appeal to kids.

Under the Health Department’s 2011 Smoking in Public Places regulation, “owners, or in the case of leased or rented space, the lessee or other person in charge, may permit electronic smoking devices in places of employment that are not public places; retail establishments that exclusively sell or promote electronic smoking devices; and public places where minors are lawfully prohibited, such as bars, taverns and casinos.� The Health Department’s Electronic Smoking Devices (e-cigarette) regulations describe enforcement measures.

MILTON TO RECEIVE 9/11 ARTIFACT FOR MEMORIAL “It’s not just for first responders, but for everyone. Flight 93, people in the towers, first responders…we want to make sure everyone is included.”

– Jack Chandler

By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

tribute. When all is said and done, the Milton 9/11 Memorial will look similar to the one pictured here in Kennewick

It started 10 years ago, a desire to memorialize those whose lives were lost in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Jack Chandler knew he wanted Milton to be a place of remembrance for that tragic day but he just wasn’t sure how.

The answer came from Kennewick.

When visiting his brother-in-law years later, he couldn’t help but notice the town’s 40-foot tall artifact from the World Trade Center, the city’s own memorial to those fallen.

“I saw their piece of material and I thought geeze that would be something nice to have here for our communities,” Chandler said A decade later Chandler, along with the rest of Milton’s 9/11 Memorial Committee, Councilmember Lois Zaroudny and Ryan Starr, have finally achieved the dream. After a three-year waiting process, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey have sent word that Milton will be receiving its own artifact from Ground Zero to use as a memorial.

“This is the point we’ve been waiting for some time. Now it’s just a matter of a few signatures and getting the thing loaded and getting it back here,” Chandler said.

After his visit to Kennewick, Chandler sat down with former Milton Chief of Police Bill Rhoads, who had contacts in the New York area, to figure out what it would take to get an artifact for Milton.

While Chandler had a smaller artifact in mind, what Milton is receiving is quite a sight. Weighing nearly 18,000 pounds and standing 36 feet tall, the piece will certainly attract attention when it is placed on the Milton Memorial Mile.

Milton’s piece came from Building Two of the World Trade Center, grid 442, which

was a window section comprised of high beams and structural material stretching from the 91st to the 94th floor.

The process of moving the artifact from the East Coast will be a celebration in and of itself. Once things are finalized, hopefully within the next couple of weeks, a flat bed truck will pick up the artifact, where it will remain covered as it makes its way across the country. Once it reaches the Washington State border, the artifact will be uncovered and police and fire trucks will escort the piece to Milton. The artifact will be stored in Fife until it is ready to be placed at the memorial.

While the city now has the centerpiece, it will still take some fundraising to create the memorial next to the Veterans Wall.

The layout has already been designed; it will be in the shape of a pentagon, with an open area filled with river rock to represent the field where Flight 93 went down in Pennsylvania. Donations of $1,000 or more to the memorial will be recognized on a sponsor plaque and all donations between $100 and $999 will be listed in the dedication ceremony program.

“It’s not just for first responders, but for everyone. Flight 93, people in the towers, first responders…we want to make sure everyone is included,” Chandler said.

Chandler has worked so long for this memorial because he wants it to be a reminder for future generations why they have the freedoms they have, and the cost of them.

“It has to be used for public display and educational purposes. That was the intent at the outset. We want people to know what happened,” Chandler said. “The only way we can get the point across in why we have the freedoms we have, we remember the events that changed the world.”

Local Restaurants RESTAURANT SPOTLIGHT: HERFY’S BURGERS OPENS NEW PARKLAND LOCATION

By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

L

ast Monday, Parkland was lucky enough to get introduced to the famous Herfy’s Burgers, with a new location opening up at 14125 Pacific Ave. S. The famed Northwest burger joint has opened with a twist in the form of the addition of teriyaki, seafood and barbeque to its brand new location.

Herfy’s various teriyaki plates come with steamed or fried rice and stir-fried vegetables. The chicken plate will run you $6.99, while beef runs $7.99. There is also a hefty amount of other options including prawn, tofu and seafood teriyaki.

Fried rice bowls go for $5.99, $7.99 for two-item bowls and $9.99 for three item bowls. Items include beef, chicken, shrimp and vegetables.

Herfy’s barbeque menu includes beef brisket on a bun, pulled pork on a bun and smoked sausage on a French roll, all for $8.99 each. Other options include hot wings and hot links.

You can make any of these options a meal with baked beans and potato salad for an additional cost of $3.99.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Herfy’s without the famous burgers provided by the company’s own CEO Jae Hong.

“I’ve helped run and open Herfy’s all over the state over the last 30 years,” Hong said.

The filling Herfy’s cheeseburger will run you $4.59, $6.59 for a double burger and an additional $2.99 to make it a meal with fries and a soft drink. Just sitting down with one of these monsters will ensure you’re staying still for a while.

If your tastes run more in the seafood line, Herfy’s is also offering a variety of seafood options. Pollock,

cod, halibut, salmon, oyster, scallop, shrimp, clam strips and catfish are all on the menu, all of which have small, medium and large options.

The new location offers a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, as its mix of American and Eastern furniture shows the blend of East and West that Hong is trying to accomplish with the new location.

Herfy’s Burgers in Parkland is open 7 days a week: Sunday through Thursday from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 10: 30 a.m. to 11 p.m.

and mobile platforms, so Tacoma’s system needed an upgrade.

The new system comes after a year of gathering comments from people and finding technical solutions so more people could use the system.

“You really want to have a clean, simplistic interface,” Tacoma’s Infor mation and Technology Director Jack Kelanic said.

The new system is not only available on various web browsers and mobile friendly but was redesigned to streamline the process of filing a report, following the progress of a report and lowering the number of times someone tries to file a police report online only to get frustrated by a glitch and call in a crime via telephone.

The former system

handled about 150 online reports a month, which is only about a third of the non-emergency crimes that were called in that could have been filed through it.

Lengthy forms have been replaced by dropdown tabs and buttons.

Filings can be saved throughout the process to allow victims to gather needed information that might not be at hand, such as the serial numbers or model numbers of stolen items.

One interesting idea about the relaunched system is that it will be open source, so techminded folks outside of the formal system can work to improve it.

“At the end of the process, we plan to give away our work,” Kelanic said.

One future feature

United States ought to be, is examining our relationships with one another as a community and realizing that we have work to do to get to know each other,” Cunningham continued.

Co-sponsored by the PLU Office of Admission and co-emceed by Cunningham, the 1000 Man Family March & Festival was founded by the Tacoma Ministerial Alliance to be a celebration of family, community, and, in particular, fathers who are present and nurturing in the lives of their children.

“Because our men and boys are imprisoned at a disproportionate rate, this march is a tactic to shift focus and instead encourage and uplift men who are taking care of the home, raising their children and serving in the community,” explained Toney Montgomery, Pastor of The Father’s House Church in east Tacoma.

“Although the message is targeted toward men, it’s important for women

already in the works is to allow users to upload photos of damage, suspects or other evidence as part of their crime reporting rather than have a police officer collect that information as part of any investigation that could come from it.

Another future change could have the system operate with languages other than just English.

People should use the online system for nonemergency crimes such as lost or stolen items, vandalism and other petty crimes, not crimes in progress, theft of guns or vehicles. Those more serious crimes should prompt victims or witnesses to call 9-1-1.

“This is in no way a replacement for the 9-1-1 system,” Kelanic said.

Crime reports collected from the system are used as the first step of a criminal investigation and also are folded into the total volume of crime reports to track trends to aid police

and girls to know they are included in this event and urged to participate,” Montgomery said.

For Cunningham, events like the 1000 Man Family March & Festival represent a valuable opportunity for PLU to continue to foster its relationship with the local African-American community, share information about opportunities at PLU and invite prospective students to visit campus.

It also represents her hope for increased unity, cross-cultural understanding and equality both in her own community and throughout the country.

“Social justice realized is when a compassionate community like ours comes together and proves that we truly are about the values and virtues we profess,” Cunningham said.

“The 1000 Man Family March & Festival is one of my absolute favorite events of the year, and I hope to be joined by many members of my PLU family.”

enforcement efforts. It’s this system’s secondary purpose that might get crime filers scratching their heads about some of the questions asked on the online form. It, for example, asks for the victim’s age and email address, which might not be seemingly related to the crime. The system asks for age to help deepen the city’s crime database used by the FBI and South Sound 911 agency to chart crime trends regionally. Police need email addresses so they can provide prompt status updates as the files work their way through the investigations, although people can opt to receive traditional mail notices if they do not have or don’t want to give out their email addresses.

PUYALLUP TRIBAL IMPACT Supporting the Economic Growth of Our Community

State, local and Puyallup tribal officials held a groundbreaking ceremony on Feb. 18, 2015 for the next Interstate 5 project in Tacoma that will create a new bridge over the Puyallup River and reconstruct the I-5/State Route-167 interchange, commuter lanes and increase access to tribal properties. Pictured here are (left to right): Puyallup tribal member David Duenas; State Representative Hans Zeiger (R-25); Tacoma Deputy Mayor David Boe; Puyallup Tribal Chairman Bill Sterud; State Secretary of Transportation Lynn Peterson; Hamilton Construction President Scott Williams; WSDOT Olympic Region Administrator Kevin Dayton; and Kierra Phifer with U.S. Senator Patty Murray’s office.

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 3,200 people that work in the Tribe’s businesses, government, economic development corporation, school, and health and housing authorities — approximately 70 percent

of whom are non-Native — employees enjoy competitive wages and benefits.

In 2013, the Tribe spent more than $461 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.

From sponsoring countless local

charities, non-profit 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 healthcare, the Tribe maintains its commitment to honoring its welldeserved reputation as “the generous people,” a reflection of the meaning of the Tribe’s very name “Puyallup.”

TRIBE BRINGS UPSCALE CIGAR AND SPORTS LOUNGE TO FIFE

Renovations to the former Mitzel’s restaurant next to the Emerald Queen Casino in Fife are well underway to transform the building into a fine cigar and sports lounge called Stogie’s. Capitalizing on the cigar lounge trend that is showing real staying power across the country, Stogie’s will be a pleasurable place for adults to enjoy the finest cigars, liquors, upscale food and 30 large-screen TVs for sports viewing. The approximately 6,000-squarefoot Stogie’s will have 132 total seats and a VIP lounge as well. It is being designed by Capital Architects, the firm that also designed the Tribe’s Youth/Community Center.

With construction, interior design and outside landscaping almost complete, a grand opening

event will be announced in the spring of 2015. To staff Stogies, a job fair is being considered to fill up to 20 positions that will be available.

With so much redesign accomplished for Stogie’s, anyone who used to patronize Mitzel’s will certainly not recognize the place now that it has received a full makeover with a modern aesthetic featuring rich woodwork, stainless steel fixtures, lots of light and tasteful designer touches everywhere. The goal is to create an environment of indulgence and luxury, which will be apparent the minute customers walk through the big glass doors at the entryway. From there, cigar lovers will be treated to a selection of superior imported cigars and fine liquors to suit the most discrimi-

nating taste. Personal lockers will be available for cigar aficionados to safely store their cigar paraphernalia under lock and key.

Among additional amenities at Stogie’s that customers will enjoy are plans for an outdoor beer garden in the warmer months with live music that will be in keeping with the relaxing, laid-back ambiance at Stogie’s. The food menu will be in development as well, always with an eye toward superior cuisine to match Stogie’s overall character. The Tribe is also looking at gaming options at Stogies. With so much potential to be explored, Stogie’s is sure to be the go-to place for connoisseurs looking for just the right place to enjoy the finer things in life.

NATIVE AMERICANS DO PAY TAXES Indian people pay taxes. They pay most of the same taxes non-Indians pay, and in some cases additional Tribal taxes as well. Indians have a few tax exemptions, just as non-Indians do. The Puyallup Tribe and its members are dramatic examples of these realities.

Indian tribes collect taxes that are then sent to the appropriate taxing bodies. The Tribe withholds federal income tax from its employees (who include Puyallup Tribal members, other Indians, and non-Indians), and from the per capita pay-

ments it makes to its members. As federal law provides, the Tribe sends that money to the I.R.S., a total of over $45 million in FY 2014.

As an employer, the Tribe pays its share of payroll taxes and withholds payroll taxes from its employees, which is then sent to the Social Security Administration and other government agencies. Those taxes added up to over $19 million in FY 2014.

Under the terms of agreements with the State of Washington and local governments, the Tribe

collects and pays tax funds to those governments, including about $11 million to the State of Washington, and over $300,000 to the City of Fife. Unlike all other governments, non-trust land owned by the Puyallup Tribal government is often subject to state and local property taxes. In 2014, the Puyallup Tribe paid over $800,000 in property taxes to state and local governments.

The total amount in taxes collected, withheld, or paid to the various governments by the Tribe in FY 2014 was approximately $77 million.

announce the opening of a new exhibit at the State History Museum in Tacoma featuring rare 1930s-era Asahel Curtis images of state parks.

The exhibit, “Washington State Parks Through the Lens of Asahel Curtis,” runs from Aug. 1 to Oct. 31 at the Washington State History Museum’s Community Gallery, 1911 Pacific Ave. The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. On the third Thursday of every month, the museum is open until 8 p.m. with free admission from 2-8 p.m.

The photographs, taken during the Great Depression, capture the early recreational use and development of Washington’s state park system. Many show parks under construction by crews from federal work relief programs such as the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Works Progress Administration (WPA). The exhibit features some of Washington’s most cherished state parks, including Deception Pass, Mount Spokane, Sun Lakes-Dry Falls, Moran and Saltwater.

Asahel Curtis (1874-1941) is among the most prominent photographers of the Pacific Northwest. He spent more than 40 years documenting the rapid transformation of Washington state that occurred during his lifetime. His photographs provide one of the most complete historic records of this period.

The photographs featured are from a unique type of media called “lantern slides.” Originally black and white photos, they were color-tinted by hand in Curtis’s Seattle studio. The slides were recently digitized and are in the care of the State Park’s Collections Program.

The exhibit was funded by revenues from the Washington State Parks specialty license plate, which are used exclusively towards state park education programs. For information on ordering, please visit www. parks.wa.gov.

CREATIVE COLLOQUY CALLS FOR SUBMISSIONS Creative Colloquy would like to extend an invitation to South Sound scribes to submit work for consideration into our second print collection, “Creative Colloquy Volume Two.” As a literary site, it has been our mission to support the local creative community and foster relationships built upon the mutual admiration of the written word by sharing the work of Tacoma area authors and encouraging connections with our monthly live reading events. We’ve successfully bridged the gap between genres and generations with these monthly reading events, a print publication, an audio CD and are in the midst of coordinating a large scale literary event in Tacoma with the inaugural Creative Colloquy Crawl.

Anticipated to launch in the fall of 2015, “Creative Colloquy Volume Two” will be much like our first collection and include a diverse selection of literary works, poetic prose and essays.

Deadline: Submissions will be accepted now to Aug. 30 and must follow the guidelines provided below.

COUNTY COUNCIL TO HONOR RETIRING JBLM COMMANDER The Pierce County Council will hold a special meeting in DuPont at 5 p.m. on Monday, July 27, to recognize the retirement of U.S. Army Col. H. Charles Hodges as well as conduct regular council business.

Col. Hodges has served as commander of Joint Base Lewis-McChord since 2012 and is retiring after 30-years of military service.

“Colonel Hodges has been a great asset to the South Sound region as well as to the United States Army,” said Councilmember Doug Richardson, who represents Pierce County’s 6th Council District. “I am proud that Chuck and his family spent 13 years in various assignments at JBLM.” Richardson, himself a retired U.S. Army Brigadier General, added that one of Col. Hodges’ greatest achievements was his work to improve the quality of life for soldiers and airmen as well as their well-being as they transitioned from military service.

The in-district council meeting will be held at DuPont City Hall, 1700 Civic Dr. The Pierce County Charter directs the council to hold at least one evening meeting in each of the seven districts to give county residents who may not be able to attend regular meetings in Tacoma a greater opportunity to participate in their government.

Those unable to attend the meeting can watch it later on PCTV (the county’s television channel), online at www.PierceCountyTV.org the following day or on a mobile device with the PCTV app (http:// piercecountytv.org/index.aspx?NID=80).

PIERCE COUNTY WINS NATIONAL AWARD Pierce County recently won Project of the Year - Structures $25 million to $75 million at both the Washington State Chapter and the National level of the American Public Works Association (APWA) for its new Sewer and Traffic Operations facility.

The South Hill facility, a grouping of six

interrelated buildings, brought staff from Sewer Division Maintenance and Operations, Traffic Operations, and a portion of the Equipment Services Section into a centralized location. The site was chosen for its mid-Pierce County location where the greatest concentration of both sewer and traffic infrastructure currently exists.

Better known as the STOP facility, the Sewer and Traffic Operations facility is the result of a countywide effort to consolidate programs and services and realize cost savings from shared space and resources, ultimately providing better customer service to the citizens of Pierce County.

“Staff can provide faster and more reliable response times to service and emergency calls,” said Pierce County Executive Pat McCarthy. “In addition, we will see reduced fuel consumption and emissions by county vehicles estimated at approximately 36,500 miles per year.”

The property includes several sustainability features such as pervious paving in the parking lot, rain gardens, and the use of reclaimed and regional materials.

The use of LED lighting and natural ventilation throughout the buildings is both environmentally responsible and resourceefficient.

The national honor will be awarded during the APWA International Public Works Congress and Exposition, which takes place Aug. 30-Sept. 2 in Phoenix, AZ.

HECK HELPS ENSURE FULL LGBT EQUALITY U.S. Congressman Denny Heck (WA-10) has signed on as an original co-sponsor of the Equality Act, legislation to ban discrimination against LGBT individuals in public accommodations, housing, employment, and other core areas of daily life.

“This law would enshrine what is common sense in the Pacific Northwest, that discrimination has no place in our daily lives,” Heck said. “As a committee member of the House Financial Services Committee, I will work to move this bill forward as it pertains to housing and credit rights, and support the passage of the complete bill as soon as possible.”

Section 8 of the Equality Act amends the Fair Housing Act to add sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes to protect LGBT individuals from discrimination in the sale, rental, or financing of housing. Section 9 amends the Equal Credit Opportunity Act to add sexual orientation and gender identity as protected classes and substitutes the term “spouse” where the Act currently references “husband and wife” to ensure married same-sex couples are fully included and not discriminated against during a credit transaction. Changes to the Fair Housing Act and Equal Credit Opportunity Act would be examined by the House Financial Services Committee, of which Heck is a member.

Despite last month’s Supreme Court ruling that affirmed marriage equality, discrimination against LGBT individuals remains legal in most states. Today, Washington is one of 17 states and the District of Columbia that offers employment, housing, and public accommodations protections for the LGBT community.

A study conducted earlier this year by the non-partisan Human Rights Campaign found that 63 percent of LGBT Americans have experienced discrimination in their personal lives. Another study found that one out of every 10 lesbian, gay, and bisexual

workers have been fired from a job because of their sexual orientation.

PROSECUTORY FINDS OFFICER’S DEADLY FORCE LAWFUL Independent and concurrent investigations by the Pierce County Medical Examiner’s Office, Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office, Cooperative Cities Crime Response Unit, and Lakewood Police Department regarding the shooting death of Daniel Isaac Covarrubias, 37, have been completed. Covarrubias died from gunshot wounds inflicted by Lakewood Police Officers David Butts and Ryan Hamilton.

Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist concluded the death was justifiable homicide under state law.

On April 21, 2015, Officers Butts and Hamilton responded to a suspicious person call at Pinnacle Lumber Company in Lakewood. They located Covarrubias, who matched the description, on top of a stack of lumber that was 25 feet in the air.

The officers began talking to Covarrubias and told him that a ladder was on its way so he could safely climb down. He did not respond.

Moments later, Covarrubias reached into his pocket and pulled out a dark object. Both officers drew their handguns and ordered Covarrubias to put his hands up. Covarrubias did not respond to the officers and did not put his hands up.

Using both hands, he pointed the dark object down at the officers as if it were a handgun. Fearing for their safety, both officers fired their handguns at Covarrubias, striking him several times. Covarrubias later died at the hospital from his wounds.

Investigators determined that the object Covarrubias was pointing at the officers was a black cell phone. Multiple witnesses told investigators that it appeared Covarrubias had a gun because of the way he was gripping the phone and pointing it at the officers.

“The officers’ actions were in response to a perceived deadly threat,” said Prosecutor Mark Lindquist. “The loss of life here is regrettable and apparently due to a combination of circumstances, mental health issues and drugs, including methamphetamine.”

Detectives learned that on the previous day, Covarrubias had made several 911 calls to report shots fired at his residence and that his family was missing. He later called 911, cancelled the report and said that “he was tripping.” When the 911 center called back and spoke to Covarrubias’ father, he said his son was “having some delusions.”

The morning of the shooting, Covarrubias went to St. Clair Hospital in Lakewood and told the staff he had cameras in his eyes and would like them taken out.

During a consult with a social worker at the hospital, he said he had used meth, had been awake for three days and had not eaten. Covarrubias voluntarily left the hospital on foot an hour before the shooting.

According to Medical Examiner Dr. Thomas Clark, Covarrubias died from a gunshot wound to his head. Dr. Clark also determined Covarrubias had benzodiazepines and methamphetamine in his system at the time of his death.

all it the luck of the draw, or just good planning and common sense, but the bottom line is the Sounders U-23 men’s soccer team is still in the running for a national championship and they’ll be hosting the final four right in their own backyard.

The decision came down quick from the head brass at the Premier Development League (PDL). There wasn’t much of a delay. What better place is there in America than the Puget Sound to host the championship weekend of the 63-team league that spans the four corners of the United States and much of Canada?

Choosing Starfire Sports Stadium in Tukwila had to be a no-brainer for the league, but the most surprising detail surrounding the upcoming championship weekend is the fact that the Sounders U-23 were a third-place finisher in their own Northwest Division, while two of the other final four competitors were division champions and the third was a runner-up.

There’s just no getting around how fantastic a vacation destination this area is.

With the other options being an unexciting Hanover, NJ, a swampy weekend in Ocala, FL or a “where the heck am I” weekend in Waterloo, Ontario, we’re going to tip our caps to the head honchos at the PDL. You made the correct choice folks.

Friday, July 31 will kick off the final four at Starfire and it’s expected to be an electric night with three of the absolute best teams in the nation stopping by to try and wrestle the PDL championship trophy back to their own respective locales.

With the way the Sounders U-23 has performed so far in the playoffs, don’t expect anything but a knockdown, slugfest of a fight. With what is expected to be a large throng of Sounders faithful packing the stands at Starfire, the home

His goal would be the game winner against FC Tucson for the title. (bottom) These seven Sounders U-23 players call the 253 their home.

cooking might be just the perfect finish to a tasty post-season run that has seen the Sounders U-23 outscore their three opponents 7-2 in three games on the road.

That’s right. These boys have been road dogs for the last week and they’ve sent some incredibly talented teams back home, licking their wounds and fighting off bad dreams of Sounder Blue and Rave Green.

On July 19, the first stop on the road to the championship weekend was against their fierce rival, the Portland Timbers U-23 (6-3-4). After suffering two shutouts against the Timbers in the regular season ( 0-1 and 0-2 results) the Sounders U-23 played in front of a firedup Timbers’ crowd at Merlo Field and throttled their rivals 4-1, knocking them out of the playoffs and sending the local boys on to the Western Conference semifinals in Tucson the following weekend.

First up in Arizona on Friday, July 24

would be the Burlingame Dragons FC (10-2-3) from just outside of San Francisco. The Sounders U-23 would get a goal from leading scorer Guillermo Delgado and would hold on for the shutout against the champions of the PDL Southwest Division.

Following the game, the host team FC Tucson did what no other team had been able to do all season; defeat the PDL Northwest Division champion Kitsap Pumas. Not only did they beat the Pumas, they handled them in front of a big home crowd by a surprising 4-1 score. The Pumas (10-1-2) had given up a total of four goals in 14 games during the regular season, including two nail-biter 1-0 victories over the Sounders U-23.

So it was going to be the underdog, upstart boys from the Puget Sound against the champions of the PDL Mountain Division in front of a reported 1,681

The Puyallup Nation Kings have kicked things into overdrive as the post-season looms, and their offensive and defensive potency was on full display as they blasted the visiting Snohomish County Thunder by an eye-covering score of 85-0 on Saturday, July 25 at Chief Leschi Stadium. With the win, the Kings finished the Western Washington Football Alliance regular season with a 6-2 record and secured the fourth seed in the WWFA playoffs and a firstround game at their home digs.

Puyallup will host the Thurston County Mayhem on Saturday, Aug. 1, at Chief Leschi Stadium in a game that, on paper, looks to be a mismatch, especially when considering the Kings’ recent performances.

After suffering through a bumpy early season, the Kings look like they have found the rhythm and the rage that propelled them to a 12-1 record in 2014. With recent scores of 63-0, 85-0 and a 33-8 handling of regular season champion Pierce County Bengals, these Kings are looking more like the ones that began garnering national attention last season.

It almost didn’t seem fair when the Thunder ventured south to play the Kings. The last-place team brought just 21 players in uniform. However, the team played the entire game with heart and determination. The problem was that they couldn’t move the ball against the Kings, nor could they figure out how to not keep turning the ball over to Puyallup. On the other side of the ball, the Kings offense chewed up the Thunder for quick score after score. Several touchdowns even occurred on relatively basic short-yardage type plays by the Kings.

Puyallup went to work on their first possession without delay. Running back Isaac Syph began the drive with a 41-yard scamper all the way to the Thunder 31-yard line. Three plays later, quarterback Justin Southern connected with receiver James Tyler III who made a move to get into the end-zone, fumbled the ball into the air and quickly snatched it back to his chest as he crossed the goal line. The Kings led 7-0 with 10:30 remaining in the first quarter.

Following a Thunder punt, the Kings went to work on their own 35-yard line. This time is was running back Donald McKee getting into the act. McKee put the Kings into Thunder territory on a 22-yard run and followed it up three plays later by hauling in a pass from Southern over the middle and racing to the goal line untouched.

The Kings now led 14-0 with 7:14 left in the first quarter.

One of the statistical oddities early in the game was produced by the Kings’ defensive lineman Demetrius Moore. On the Thunder’s first play from scrimmage, Moore sacked the quarterback for a five yard loss. On the Thunder’s first play of their second drive, Moore stuffed a run for another five yard loss. On the Thunder’s first play of their third possession,

LOGGER COACH HANSON HAS CLOSE TIES TO WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS Puget Sound women's soccer head coach Randy Hanson has built a juggernaut program as the Loggers have won 13 consecutive Northwest Conference titles. Outside of the collegiate ranks, Hanson played a key role in developing several players for the U.S. Women's National Soccer Team that won the World Cup title with a 5-2 victory over Japan on July 5.

Hanson, along with Puget Sound goalkeeper coach Kelly Bendixen, joined the Seattle Sounders Women's coaching staff in 2012. That powerhouse squad included current U.S. National players such as Alex Morgan, Hope Solo, Sydney Leroux and Megan Rapinoe. Monica Perez, who played for Mexico during 2015 World Cup, also competed with the Sounders under Hanson's tutelage.

Although Hanson no longer coaches with the Sounders (Bendixen is still on the Seattle staff), he remains a strong influence in the national ranks. Hanson is on staff with the U.S. Under-20 Women's National Team, where he helped scout opponents during the 2014 World Cup. He also helps scout players to join the national team pool.

At Puget Sound, Hanson has coached 14 All-Americans, 71 All-Region selections, and 69 All-NWC First Team members, while compiling a 286-74-31 record (.771).

The Loggers' 2015 season opens vs. Emory (at Wheaton, Illinois) on Sept 4. The first home game of the year is Sept.

11 vs. Cal Lutheran.

UPS’ SHELDON TAKES TALENTS TO BRAZIL WITH USA D-III TEAM Emily Sheldon will represent Puget Sound during the USA D-III Women's Basketball Tour in Brazil, running from July 21-30. This marks the second consecutive year the Loggers will represent the USA squad. Amanda Forshay ('15) toured with the team in the summer of 2014.

"This is an exciting opportunity and well deserved honor for Emily to travel abroad and compete on the USA D-III Team," said Puget Sound women's basketball head coach Loree Payne. "I am confident that she will do an amazing job representing our women's basketball program, the University of Puget Sound, and the Northwest Conference."

The USA team is comprised of 10 student-athletes from eight universities across the country. Sheldon was the Loggers' second-leading scorer with 13.9 points per game during the 2014-15 season, as she helped lead Puget Sound to an NCAA Tournament berth. The Loggers also matched their best record in program history, finishing the year at 24-5.

HIBBARD AND SEELY LEAD THE WAY AS 111 LUTES EARN NWC ACADEMIC HONORS Pacific Lutheran seniors Greg Hibbard and Amanda Seely claimed first-team honors as 111 PLU studentathletes earned Academic All-Northwest Conference recognition during the 2014-15 academic year.

Hibbard was a three-time all-conference performer on the football field as a defensive back and became the first male PLU student-athletes to receive Capital One First Team Academic All-America honors twice in his career as he earned the honor in 2013 and 2014. He majored in geosciences and economics and graduated in May with a 3.96 grade point average, earning PLU's George Fisher Male Scholar Athlete Award and a 2014 NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship.

Seely concluded her collegiate cross country career last fall with a total of two top-10 career finishes, including a fourth-place finish at the 2012 PLU Invitational. She majored in anthropology and women's and genders studies, graduating in May with a 3.94 GPA. She was PLU's 2015 commencement student speaker and graduated summa cum laude and was PLU's 2015 George Fisher Women's Scholar Athlete Award recipient.

Each of PLU's 19 programs featured at least three student-athletes on the Academic All-Conference list, with the women's track & field team leading the way with 12 honorees. The PLU volleyball team added 10 honorees, followed by football with nine, women's cross country with eight, women's rowing and women's swimming with seven, men's soccer, women's soccer and softball with six, men's basketball, women's tennis and men's track & field with five, baseball, women's basketball, men's cross country and women's golf with four and men's golf, men's swimming and men's tennis with three.

PLU's 111 honorees marked the second-highest total in the Northwest Conference, behind only Whitworth. To be eligible, student-athletes must achieve a cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher at the end of the academic year and must have participated throughout the entire varsity season.

PLU’S WOOTEN NAMED NCAA WOMAN OF THE YEAR NOMINEE Pacific Lutheran 2015 volleyball graduate Amy Wooten has been named PLU's NCAA Woman of the Year nominee, continuing a recent tradition of top Lute candidates for the honor.

Wooten, who was honored with the Lute Career Achievement Award in May, earned her Bachelor of Arts in Communication and is pursuing a graduate degree at University of Washington in Sports Administration. During her time at PLU she was heavily involved in the athletic department beyond her time on the volleyball court, working as an athletics marketing and promotions intern as well as serving two years as president of the StudentAthlete Advisory Committee.

"I am very excited that Amy was recognized as the PLU nominee for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award," PLU Associate Athletic Director Jen Thomas said.

"Amy's leadership and accomplishments within the PLU community, in the classroom and on the volleyball court were unparalleled during her time at PLU. During Amy's career at PLU she provided immeasurable leadership and helped SAAC and the athletic department earn recognition both on the institutional and national level. She is truly the epitome of what we want our student-athletes to be."

Wooten earned all-conference honorable mention and was a 2014 volleyball team captain who helped lead the Lutes to three conference championships and four NCAA D-III Regional berths. She was also a three-time volleyball team Most Inspirational honoree. She attended a national convention on scholarship as a member of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators and also served as an Emerging Student Leader in Public Relations and Advertising as a member of PLU's chapter of the American Marketing Association.

Wooten compiled a 3.54 grade point average and was a four-year SAAC member. As president, she helped lead SAAC to an Organization of the Year recognition and coordinated the organization's award-winning Tunnel of Oppression scene. She also coordinated numerous drives within the athletic department and directed PLU's "You Can Play" video that earned the inaugural NCAA Diversity Spotlight Initiative.

"Being a student-athlete has taught me so much about how to be a leader on and off the court," Wooten said.

"Being an NCAA athlete helped me build my confidence, it inspired me to be a better member of my community and it lead me to my passion for working in college athletics."

Wooten joins recent Lute Woman of the Year nominees Samantha Potter (basketball/track & field, 2014), Kaaren Hatlen (softball, 2013), Stacey Hagensen (softball, 2012) and Beth Hanna (volleyball, 2011), all of whom were named NWC Woman of the Year. The 2015 NWC Woman of the Year will be announced later this summer.

fans at Kino North Stadium in Tucson on Saturday, July 25. The action was furious throughout the game and both teams were visibly sapped from the heat.

The Sounders U-23 would get on the scoreboard quick when former Wilson High School superstar Joey Gjertsen connected with Kento Sakurai right in front of the goal for a 1-0 lead just two minutes into the contest. FC Tucson was relentlessly trying to equalize the score in the first half and finally pushed one through on a crisp header by Edgar Reyna with eight minutes remaining in the first half.

The second half was not 45 minutes for the faint of heart. Each team suffered narrow misses to go ahead or even stretch out a lead, but the score remained 1-1 and the prospects of going into overtime with so many tired legs was not looking good for either team.

Finally, with eight minutes left in regulation, the Sounders U-23 hit the switch and took the lead on a beautiful rebound and cannon shot into the back of the net by 2015 PDL All-League Selection Jonathan Campbell. The defender from the University of North Carolina took a deflection, knocked

the ball to his feet with his chest, and was quick enough to hammer a shot while surrounded by a host of FC Tucson defenders.

The Sounders U-23 now led 2-1.

With time running out, the home team nearly tied the score up, including a ball that hit the left post and was covered by Sounders U-23 goalkeeper Jeff Caldwell before another Tucson (9-3-4) player could get to the rebound. The defense would hold on to the 2-1 lead and the Sounders U-23 would celebrate a Western Conference Championship.

“I am very happy for the players who have worked hard this summer,” said Sounders U-23 head coach Darren Sawatzky. “To come down here and win two games on back to back days show the character they have developed.”

And now for one final run. The Sounders U-23 will play K-W United FC (14-2-1) from Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario at Starfire Sports Stadium on Friday, July 31 at 8 p.m. The first PDL semifinal will be a battle of division champions. The New York Red Bulls U-23 (9-2-3), the winners of the PDL Mid-Atlantic Division, will face the Ocala Stampede (8-3-3), the winners of the Southeast Division, at 6 p.m. The $10 ticket is good for both games.

The PDL championship match will be held at Starfire on Sunday, Aug. 2 at 2 p.m.

Start making plans.

t Football From page A10

Moore blew up their running back for a four yard loss. Moore would get into more action awhile later.

On the next Kings’ possession, it took all of two plays for Puyallup to tack on more points. Southern hit Mychal Hutcherson for a short pass and the big receiver dragged a host of Thunder defenders over 10 yards, finishing with a 27-yard gain to the Thunder 35-yard line. Isaac Syph took a hand-off on the next play, broke toward the home sideline, cut up field and used a final pancake block by lineman James Lloyd to spring free for the final stretch of a 35-yard touchdown run.

The Kings now led 21-0 with 4:17 left in the first quarter.

The Kings had a short field following a Thunder punt on the next possession, and it would take just one play to rack up more points. McKee took a hand-off up the gut from the 34-yard line and sprinted to the goal line, untouched again, for a score. The Kings now led 28-0 with 2:28 remaining in the first quarter.

The Thunder tried to move the ball through the air on the next drive and paid the price. After dropping an interception

that would have easily been returned for a touchdown, cornerback J.J. Bickham hauled in a tipped pass at the 30-yard line and ran it back 20 yards to set up another Kings’ score. Three plays later, Southern found Tyler again for a 10-yard touchdown pass. The Kings now led 35-0 with 2:06 left in the first quarter.

Snohomish put together a few positive plays on the next drive before Demetrius Moore made himself known again.

Moore caught a tipped pass at the Puyallup 46-yard line and rambled down the sidelines untouched for a pick six and the Kings’ lead was now 42-0 with 13:43 remaining in the second quarter. Three plays later, cornerback Anthony France nabbed his own interception and ran it back 29-yards for another touchdown and a 49-0 Kings lead with 12:03 left in the second quarter.

The game continued in this vein to the final whistle, even with a running clock in the second half as the Kings ran away with the 85-0 victory.

Puyallup will host the Thurston County Mayhem (3-5) on Saturday, Aug. 1 at Chief Leschi Stadium. Kick-off is set for 6 p.m. In the other first-round playoff matchup on Saturday, the third-place Puget Sound Outlaws will host the Snohomish County Vikings (3-5) at Lakewood’s Harry Lang Stadium at 5 p.m.

MÖTLEY CRÜE BIDS FAREWELL TO LOCAL FANS (MAYBE)

By Ernest A. Jasmin

ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

Few videos capture Mötley Crüe’s party hearty heyday quite like a widely circulated bootleg from the band’s Oct. 15, 1987 performance at the Tacoma Dome. (Enter the proper key words into YouTube, and it’ll pop right up.)

“Here I come Tacooooma!!!” drummer Tommy Lee declares around the 54-minute mark as a roll cage holding his kit detaches from the stage. He floats forward in all his Aqua Net-enhanced glory and bangs out the first part of a solo before alluding to a “sick mutha----in’ dream” he had. He can barely contain himself, as if he had way too much coffee (or something) before the show.

“In this (freakin’) dream I had, man I thought ... wouldn’t it be cool to just go a little bit to the right?”

His rig tilts precariously to one side as he plays, and miraculously he doesn’t slide off. Repeat drill “to the leeeeeeeeft!” Then he blows the minds of the 30,000 glam-metalheads on hand as he goes full 360, tumbling head over heels as he completes one of the most ridiculous drum solos any of them has ever seen.

So no offense to Auburn’s White River Amphitheatre, where the band – also singer Vince Neil, guitarist Mick Mars and bassist Nikki Sixx – took its farewell tour last summer. With so many fan memories tied to the Dome, the Crüe’s final local performance had to be in Tacoma. And while many fans on that July 24 had the appearance of responsible, 401k-invested adults, the Crüe’s performance took them way down memory

lane to a less complicated time when they rocked tattered denim, spiked hair and studded wristbands.

Last year, band members claimed to have signed a legally binding contract, forbidding them from hitting the road again following this farewell tour – you know, so as not to get lumped in with those greedy, liarmouths in Kiss. And Lee’s gimmick was appropriately over-the-top for one final run. He rode what can best be described as an inverted roller coaster track, tumbling and occasionally dangling upside-down, 40-feet above the arena floor as he played. Granted, fans couldn’t always hear him with massive hip-hop and dubstep beats being pumped in over what he was playing.

Mötley Crüe’s set list had nearly all the expected Sunset Strip classics that fans expected, along with a few new, disposable hits. The band kicked off with “Girls, Girls, Girls,” a song that would be in the Strip Club Hall of Fame, if there were such a thing. They turned up a couple of notches with “Wild Side” and “Smokin’ in the Boys Room.” Then they got heads banging with metal anthem, “Shout at the Devil.” The quartet later returned after a short absence, marching out to a second, smaller stage to wrap up with the schmaltzy but somehow brilliant “Home Sweet Home.”

Opening for the Crüe this time around was fellow L.A. rock legend Vincent Furnier, a.k.a. Alice Cooper. The shock-rock godfather brings his ghoulishly theatrical show to the Emerald Queen every year or two and seemed to enjoy having a little extra space to operate.

Cooper and company opened with his remake of Judy Collins’ “Hello Hooray” before hitting full stride

with his classic ‘70s anthem, “No More Mister Nice Guy.” “I’m 18” thrilled similarly, as did the 10-foot-tall monster that showed up for “Feed My Frankenstein.”

And while Cooper started in red and black pin stripes, it was inevitable that he’d wind up in a straightjacket, tormented by a needle-jabbing nurse. Then the guillotine made its inevitable appearance, and it was off with his head during “The Ballad of Dwight Fry.” (Note to self: look up how he does that.)

Of course, he made a miraculous recovery and was back to wrap up with a mash-up of his signature number “School’s Out” and Pink Floyd’s “Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2).”

See more images from the show online at www. tacomaweekly.com.

ALICE COOPER SET LIST: “Hello Hooray” (Judy Collins), “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” “Under My Wheels,” “I’m 18,” “Billion Dollar Babies,” “Poison,” “Dirty Diamonds,” “Welcome to My Nightmare,” “Feed My Frankenstein,” “The Ballad of Dwight Fry,” “School’s Out/ Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)” (Pink Floyd) MÖTLEY CRÜE SET LIST: “Girls, Girls, Girls,” “Wild Side,” “Primal Scream,” “Same Ol’ Situation,” “Don’t Go Away Mad (Just Go Away),” “Smokin’ in the Boys Room/Rock & Roll, Part 2” (Gary Glitter), “Looks That Kill,” “M---------er of the Year,” “Anarchy in the UK” (Sex Pistols), “Shout at the Devil,” drum solo, guitar solo, “Live Wire,” “Saints of Los Angeles,” “Too Young to Fall in Love,” “Dr. Feelgood,” “Kickstart My Heart,” “Home Sweet Home”

Myron Avant – the R&B performer better known as simply Avant – is headed to Tacoma to benefit a local cause. The singer will headline “A Night of Essence� at 8 p.m. on Aug. 7 at the Clover Park College Ballroom, 4500 Steilacoom Blvd., in Lakewood. “We’re putting together a number of events to start raising money for our youth in our community, and to bring more upscale, entertaining events to the Pierce County area,� organizer Michael Hankins said.

Part of the event proceeds will go toward taking local youth on trips to historically black colleges Moorehouse and Spelman in Atlanta, Hankins said. “Then we’ll do a huge seminar in October called ‘The Shaping of the Young Black Male’ where we’ll bring in inner city youth and give them information on education, budgeting money, finances, empowerment. It’s like a two-day retreat.�

Avant is best known for hits “Separated,� “My First Love� and “Read Your Mind.� His last album, “Face the Music,� was released in 2013.

Joining Avant on the bill are regional R&B and soul artists D-Dahz, April Shantae, Tiffany Wilson, Olivia Thomas, Tehzan Boyd and Mo Cheekz. Hosting the event will be comedian Nate Jackson, a native of Lacey who has steadily built a national following since he won the prestigious Bay Area Black Comedy Competition in 2010. Jackson also hosts the Super Funny Comedy Show, a monthly event held at Keys on Main downtown.

General admission tickets for next weekend’s event is $30 with VIP packages available for $450 to $100. They can be purchased online at www.brownpapertickets.com.

Attendees must be 21 or older.

DEAD LETTER OFFICE. The reunited alt-rock band includes (clock-

ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

Leaving Tacoma has only made Dan Stone’s heart grow fonder for the music scene that he left behind. “I had to leave Tacoma for years to come back and understand how unique and special that scene is,� said Stone, who has lived in San Diego since 2001. “You kind of take it for granted,� he said, “but when you come back there’s a deep appreciation, especially knowing that you can count on people like (Music and Art in Wright Park organizers) Jayme (Fisher) and Cody Foster who are gonna make things happen so people can get together and hear each others music. It’s not about stardom. It’s not about ego.

It’s about sharing art, and that’s unique.�

Stone’s recently reunited band, Dead Letter Office, has been tapped to headline this year’s Music and Art in Wright Park Festival, a free, family-friendly local punk and indie-rock showcase that will take over Wright Park from noon to 7 p.m. on Aug. 8.

The festival was founded by former Mother Records owner Ken Johnson in 1992, months before Dead Letter Office started to take shape at a popular I Street party spot, called the Reno House. The houses’s nickname comes from Nevada transplants “Reno�

Dave Marseillan (most recently of CFA and Furry Buddies fame) and DLO guitarist Scott Talbott. “I became friends with the Reno guys and ended up moving into the Reno House,� Stone recalled.

While there he developed a friendship with eventual Dead Letter Office drummer Brandon Boote, who was a member of Talbott and Marsellian’s band, Nadir. “We just started playing

together, me and Brandon,�

Stone said, “and out of all that just became close friends. I was also a roadie for Nadir when they toured for five weeks. We just wrote some songs together.

(It was) one of those things where we eventually needed to come up with a name.

Then next thing you know we were playing, and it was more about being part of the culture.�

Many veterans of the local music scene will recognize Dead Letter Office as one of the more popular Tacoma bands of 20 years ago. The band – which also includes bassist Karl Frantz and keyboard player Geoff Weeg in its latest incarnation – contributed the song “Code Word� to the fundraiser compilation, “Tacoma MAWP Comp Vol. 1: Organic Arsenic,� which can be purchased online at www.bandcamp. com. “We were a small moment in time, that only a few people could remember, but we come from a time that was very important to us and to our lives,� said Stone, who sings and plays guitar for DLO. “For all of the people that are still in Tacoma or coming back, that’s what I feel like the Dead Letter Office reunion represents. It’s not necessarily about the bands and the songs, it’s the era and that time.�

Also performing at this year’s festival are Hilltop Rats, Planet of Giants, Stereo Creeps, Full Moon Radio, Wow Laura, Weird Tigers, Perfect Bombs, The Cottonwood Cutups, Milk, Chrono Bats, Coma Figura and Oh! Dear. “This year, I’ve been trying to focus on some newer talent that’s going on as well as some local favorites,� Fisher, the festival talent booker, said earlier this month. “So it’s kind of all over the place, but it’s got a little bit more of the indie vibe. There’s still some really good heavy

stuff; and kind of in the middle we have a bluegrass folk-band (Cottonwood Cutups) and a blues band (Planet of Giants).� “It’s kind of exciting,�

Stone said. “A lot of the bands are these rippin’ bands that up until this last year I haven’t heard of before. That’s not to say they’re not established; I’m just not up there all the time.�

Also adding to the festivity are Tacoma Weekly sports editor Justin Gimse, also of Big Wheel Stunt Show fame, who will emcee, and featured artists Joe Gallagher and Chelsea O’Sullivan Ketchum. “I’m going to have an opportunity to do a live painting and show people my process,� said Gallagher, who works with acrylic on canvas. “They’re gonna give me about seven hours, and at the end of the festival they’re going to be auctioning it off to raise money for next year’s event.�

Speaking of which, there will be one more fundraiser concert before next weekend’s big event.

The show will feature Tacoma favorites Wheelies and Sleeper Cell at 9 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 1, at the Swiss Tavern, 1904 Jefferson Ave. For further details on that show, call (253) 572-2821 or visit www. theswisspub.com.

ARIES (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19) Plan on delving deeply in to the richness of experience on all planes of existence. The bridge between your emotions and others’ emotions will be blurred, as boundaries become non-existent on both ends of the spectrum. Carefully choose who you hang out with and spend your time with. Keep in mind what you’re feeling and what are residual leftovers from other people.

TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20) There may be a need to address your friends this week or promote a more socially fair point of view.You can get your message across easiest when it is honest, well-intentioned, and heartfelt. Try to refrain from judgment, as that will get you nowhere fast. Stand your ground, come from a good place, and wait for people to fully grasp what you’re trying to communicate.

GEMINI (May 21 – Jun. 20) There may be an emotional validation that you require from the public right now. Something or someone that tells you that you’re accepted and revered. You may unexpectedly make an emotional decision about work and that has to be okay with you. Career and public standing take precedence this week. Prepare to dig in deep to your imagination and feel it out.

CANCER (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22) You’ve been working too hard lately, Cancer, and it shows. You yearn to break free and float around unbidden on the trails of dreams and imagination.

This week time will open its arms up to you and you will get your wish. Plan on creative pursuits and anything that gives you the least amount of structure and selfdiscipline. You’ve totally earned it.

LIBRA (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22) A great emotional need to care for those around you is going to spring up. You will feel most fulfilled if the balance of chores is divvied up equally.

If the balance is thrown off, it may affect you at a physical level. Health and balance are intertwined so if things aren’t humming along as you hoped, your health can be affected. Try to realize we can’t be perfect all the time. Even you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) This week you may realize that the easiest way to deal with negativity from others is to release it through creation of art, music, and words. If you’ve been feeling down in the dumps lately, look to the infinite fleetingness of everything to feel better. Nothing lasts, not even bad moods and days, and that is something you can count on. Spend some time alone. Create.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) Issues of mother or mother-types arise this week that can and should be handled by copious amounts of understanding and forgiveness. If nothing negative, realize that there is a certain amount of emotional validation that comes from parental units that you either got or have been wanting for. Learn to appreciate what you’ve learned from your childhood.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Meeting others at an emotional middle ground will be needed at this time. Communications dealing with matters of the heart, the spiritual world, and/or fulfillment will arise. Take care to not take on any negative emotions from other people and to protect yourself from impending less-than-savory opinions. Recoup in private, where you only have yourself to care for.

LEO (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22) There comes a time in all relationships-both romantic and platonic-where we feel the need to probe into emotions and unspoken communications. A time we need to know that what we’re giving is going to give us a return on that investment. You may be experiencing that right now. Take some time to quietly observe from a stranger’s perspective. Take note of what you see.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Situations involving financial security and income will be prevalent this week. If you’ve been feeling like you’re on shaky ground financially, flip the coin. Realize that money is fleeting. Possessions come and go. In the end it is who we are and what we’ve done with our lives that matter most. Money might make the world go ‘round but love and hope are what make it good.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22) Dealing with people on a one-on-one basis this week will suit you better than large groups. There may be some expectation to have the same respect and care shown to you that you have shown others but that may not always be the case. You may find yourself at odds or at peace with your emotional needs having to be met through other people. Just let it happen. You’ll be okay.

PISCES (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20) Being sensitive to the world’s emotional undercurrent isn’t always easy for you. This week you’ll be super attuned to outside influences and your reactions will be easy to read. Realize that you can step away from any situation or person if you’re not feeling right about it or them. You don’t owe anyone an interaction. Take care of self first so that you can take care of others.

Miller Pit Bull Terrier mix Miller is one cool pooch. He’s been an absolute stud at every offsite adoption event, digging time outside of his kennel to get to know the locals. No matter who comes his way, Miller showers all with big sloppy kisses — he’s a lover, not a fighter. He also gets along well with other dogs, though Miller’s history with cats is unknown. A slow and careful introduction to resident cats would be best. With a little work on manners, 4-year-old Miller will be a model mutt. And for just $130, he can be all yours. Here’s to hoping that Miller’s future is so bright, he has to wear shades. #A499412
