acomans came out to celebrate the opening of five 6th Avenue businesses on July 26. The event started with a double ribbon cutting with Mayor Marilyn Strickland and the shop owners of Kiss My Lash and The Nearsighted Narwhal. The Nearsighted Narwhal, 2610A 6th Ave., is a quirky new magazine and

bookshop that has a very welcoming vibe and many great reads to browse. Kiss My Lash, 2610B 6th Ave., is an eyelash extension shop that just became neighbors with Studio 6 Ballroom and The Nearsighted Narwhal. Both received a big welcome from the 6th Avenue and greater Tacoma area this past Saturday. The next stop on the ribbon-cutting walk was across the street at Pure Body Shop, 2501 6th Ave. This new, very chic salon and spa now on

6th Avenue brings amenities such as massage therapy treatments, facials, body treatments, hair design, hair treatments, manicures, pedicures and foot treatments. Once the over-sized red ribbon was cut, the crowd of local business supporters moved down to Southern Exposure at 2715 6th Ave., a new restaurant specializing in authentic cuisine with a Caribbean flair.

The checkered flag is about to drop on three decades of go-carting outside Point Defiance Park, as TNT Family Go-Karts prepares to close without a lease extension from Metropolitan Parks District of Tacoma. But its owners and fans aren’t leaving without one last attempt to keep the cars running. The lease ends Nov. 15. Even if park officials don’t renew owner Troy Langley’s lease and the go-kart engines are silenced, visitors shouldn’t expect the new development to come quickly. The land will be used for parking while utility work and other projects are done before buildings start springing up years from now. But park officials want the land now to start the prep work in a domino chain of changes to the landscape. Point

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK =0:0; <: 65 -(*,)662 MHJLIVVR JVT [HJVTH^LLRS`

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

These beautiful illustrations inspired Americans to enlist in the military, volunteer for the war effort, buy liberty bonds, conserve food, grow gardens, and home can their harvest. They were instrumental in maintaining morale and strengthening the home front. The illustrators became icons in their field, and the images are examples of how successful orchestrated messaging can be. “U.S. involvement in WWI required support from the home front to be successful,â€? explains Jennifer Kilmer, director of the Washington State Historical Society. “The posters of WWI were effective because they tapped into emotions such as duty, honor, fear and pride. They were as compelling then as television and social media are today.â€? Opening day of “Seeds of Victoryâ€? will include gallery tours led by the collector, a military band, a flag ceremony, WWI re-enactors, activities and crafts for the family, and a display of WWI-era weaponry. Active duty, reserve, and guard military service members and up to five members of their family will receive free admission as part of the Blue Star Museum program. Other museums and organizations will sponsor activities up and down Pacific Avenue that day until the start of the Celebrate Military Service Parade, which begins at 5 p.m. with a concert in Tollefson Plaza and the start of the parade itself at 6 p.m. *<;;05. ;/, =0:<(3 *3<;;,9 65 ;(*64(Âť: :;9,,;: Signs posted in the public right of way or on bridges could cost the sign’s owner $250.

The City of Tacoma’s code compliance enforcement staff removes signs posted illegally when they see them and may also contact the poster. “We want to educate our residents and businesses about the sign regulations and help them find appropriate places to put their signs up, such as community boards or Internet sites,â€? said Gary Crawford, tax and license compliance officer. The sign code helps promote a cleaner Tacoma, which in turn helps attract business development and makes the community more welcoming to visitors and residents. The City wants to work with residents to reduce visual clutter and keep Tacoma clean, Crawford said. Residents can report illegally posted signs by calling 3-1-1 or going online to cityoftacoma.org/cityqa. ;(*64( 76,; 3(<9,(;, 3(<5*/,: Âş3(<9,(;, 30:;,505. 7961,*;Âť Tacoma Poet Laureate Lucas Smiraldo has partnered with the City of Tacoma and The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation to launch the Laureate Listening Project, an interactive audio anthology website where recorded oral poetry from members of the region will be mapped to provide a permanent record of the lives, ideas, concerns and celebrations of a diverse community through the vehicle of poetry. Smiraldo will work with various nonprofit and cultural organizations to encourage people from of all backgrounds to share their poetry about places and spaces in Tacoma and around the world. Audio recordings of these poems, centered on the “spirit of placeâ€? theme, will be edited and placed on a Google map website so users can search by a particular poet or location and listen to work inspired by the site. Some recordings will be accompanied by soundscapes and music created by composers and sound artists. Individuals who are interested in sharing their short, spoken works can contact Smiraldo at vanillasoul@clear.net for further information and to schedule a recording session. Smiraldo is also leading a team of poets as an artist in residence for the Race and Pedagogy National Conference at the University of Puget Sound this September. Poets and other artists will function as creative journalists to document ideas, challenges and solutions to address the topic of education in a dynamic and changing America. He plans to include audio pieces collected from conference participants in the Laureate Listening Project. Funding for the Laureate Listening Project is made possible by a Spark Grant from The Greater Tacoma Community Foundation. Mapping capability is made possible by the City of Tacoma.

POLICE HUNT FOR ‘NUTTY’ PIMP By David Rose Correspondent

“I love him, and I don’t want him to get into trouble,� said a 16-year-old victim of sex trafficking to Tacoma detectives when asked about Galen Lacruise, aka “Nutty.� She’d met the pimp at a bus DAVID ROSE stop and was quickly lured into the life. On average, she saw three to four “tricks� a day and every penny went to Lacruise. Sometimes he would buy her food or get her hair or nails done, but he otherwise kept all the money. That was in 2011. “Nutty,� who is 6’6� and reportedly lives up to his nickname, was convicted of promoting prostitution in Pierce County. He’s out of prison and most likely back on the prowl looking to exploit more young

girls. He’s wanted by the Department of Corrections. Lacruise also has convictions for drugs and robbery. In 2010, he and a bunch of other crooks threatened a man at the Sound Transit Light Rail station in Tukwila, showing him a knife and saying, “You wouldn’t want to be cut.� They stole his carton of cigarettes. “Nutty� is a documented gang member who needs to be found quickly. If you know where officers can find Galen Lacruise, call Crime Stoppers of Tacoma/ Pierce County at 1 (800) 222-TIPS. You never have to give your name and you will be paid a cash reward for the information that leads to his arrest. Lacruise will be featured on “Washington’s Most Wanted� this Friday, Aug. 1. Watch every Friday night at 10:30 on Q13 FOX and 9:30 on Joe TV.

This is exactly what a man did on July 25 at a Union Avenue Walmart. An employee called the police after the suspect, who had committed a robbery at knife point in the store earlier that night, appeared to be hanging out in a truck in the parking lot, reading something. Police were able to get to the scene and exit their vehicles without the man noticing. The man was detained and was later confirmed to be the same suspect from earlier in the night. He was then booked into Fife Jail for armed robbery. When the police ask you to do something, chances are they aren’t going to change their mind when you ask them again, much less 19 more times. On July 25, a man on Washington Street found this out the hard way after officers observed him throwing a glass bottle at a wall mural. When the officer asked the man to pick up the now shattered pieces of glass littering the parking lot, the man asked if the officer was serious, to which the officer gave a clear “yes, I am serious.� This should have been the end of the story, but the man still wasn’t sure if the police officer was joking around, as police officers often do about crime. He decided to continue asking if they were serious approximately 20 times, after each time the officer would say “yes, I am serious.� After finally deciding to pick up the glass the man vented his frustration by throwing a large chunk up into the air, making it shatter as it hit the ground, at which point he was booked into Fife Jail for littering.

LOCAL YOUNG ARTIST GETS NATIONAL RECOGNITION By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

While most artists have that moment of clarity when they realize that art is their calling in life, recent Tacoma School of the Arts (SOTA) graduate Rebekah Fleming had that moment was reflected on every time she drove to school. “That border was crossed when I came to Tacoma from Port Orchard to go to school. That’s when I began to realize that art was worth making sacrifices for. It’s important to me,� Fleming said. For the past few years, Fleming has made the 40-minute drive from Port Orchard to SOTA to sharpen her drawing skills. Under the tutelage of instructor Terri Placentia, Fleming has exploded on the scene, receiving national recognition for her work. “You prosper so much under [Placentia’s] instruction,� Fleming said. “There is so much technical skill through practice.� One of Fleming’s paintings is currently hanging on the underground wall going from the House office buildings to the Capitol in Washington, D.C.

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT:

DOWNTOWN VAPORS By Derek Shuck

derek@tacomaweekly.com

Vape stores have been at the center of lawmakers’ attention lately. With the hobby’s rise as a popular alternative to smoking, classification for the new system has been difficult. New store Downtown Vapors is ignoring all the technicalities and just offering the lowest prices and the coolest new spot to vape in Tacoma. “We all looked at the prices that some of these places are charging, more than triple the wholesale costs, and we agreed on a major part of our approach in the downtown area, let the lawyers gouge the lawyers and bankers, we’re here to serve the downtown crowd. For some this isn’t just a fad, it’s one in a long line of attempts to quit,� owner Michael Harold said. Downtown Vapors was opened by Harold when he made the switch from cigarettes to electronic alternatives after talking to a knowledgeable clerk at a vape shop. “I picked [an e-cig] out, used it for about a month, really just because of the cool flavors. I soon found that my lungs weren’t heavy with smoke like they’d been for the past 20 years. So, I decided to be a part of a business that is helping people, like myself, to breathe,� Harold said. Downtown Vapors focuses on the customer through and through, not only in terms of prices but also the atmosphere the store presents. An X-Box hangs out in the front of the store, with movies and games for anyone’s tastes, and on the weekends

DJ Jake Nudl3 stops by to provide some live entertainment. Meanwhile, the backroom offers some hangout space with Kava drinks and private vaping options. “We have old wooden, well lit display cases, with a nice antique glow. There’s a hutch for the table top herbal vaporizers, like a Volcano, or Da Buddha. Right next to it, there’s a hutch for hand-held herbal vapes like the Pax and the Firefly and up the stairs there’s a glass hutch for hot nail vaping of wax, glass pipes, grinders,flavored rolling papers and domes and glass sticks and then the standard vape cabinets for batteries, RBAs and RDAs and mods like the Vamos, Innokin products like the VTR, MVP. There’s the hybrid, Dreadnaut and in the final cabinet--juice flavor choices from Suicide Bunny, Wolfpack, Velvet Cloud, Two Peas in the Pod and Aer,� Harold said. Downtown Vapors also offers a variety of glassware to fit any smoking needs for an affordable price. “We have a goal of matching or beating online prices,� Harold said. “We’re cheaper than anyone in town, I’m confident in saying that.� On Aug. 1-3, the store is hosting a grand opening, complete with DJ Nudl3 and Kava drinks that help provide a mellow atmosphere to anyone looking to come hang out with not just a store, but also a community. “If there’s anything that is trying to be unique about this shop, it’s that we’re not approaching this like vaping is a fad,� Harold said. “These are not our discounted prices; this is us.�

IN HILLTOP Spaceworks Tacoma has announced the grand opening of four new businesses in Hilltop. Spaceworks recently partnered with property owner Paul Okner of Fremont Property Group LLC to activate this previously vacant building. Spaceworks signed the lease with Okner in January then identified four of its creative enterprises to fill the 5,000 square feet of commercial property. For the past few months, Spaceworks and the business owners have been preparing the space for business. Now all four businesses have completed their renovations and improvements, and are ready to open their doors and celebrate. The grand opening celebration of Concrete Market, The Tshirt Men Company, SPUN Clay Arts Studio & Gallery, and DubCity Studios will be 5-9 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 1 at the corner of South 10th Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Way. Each business will host an open house and offer a variety of fun experiences for customers. Details about each business follows.

RUSTON FAMILY FAIR AND CAR SHOW CELEBRATES VINTAGE VEHICLES AND MORE By Matt Nagle matt@tacomaweekly.com

F

or the first time, August is officially Vintage Vehicle Appreciation Month in Tacoma. Earlier this year, Tacoma City Council and Mayor Marilyn Strickland issued the formal proclamation, making our city the first one in our state’s long and glorified history to declare a Vintage Vehicle Appreciation Month. This makes the Ruston Family Fair and Car Show on Aug. 9, all the more special this year. The beautiful environs of North Pearl will be the backdrop for the event. Sponsored by the Ruston-Point Defiance Business District, a full day of fun things to do and see is on tap, geared especially toward families with activities for children and adults alike. “This is our fifth year and we grow a little bit every year,� said Ruston-Point Defiance Business District Secretary Karen Pickett, who is also chair of the committee that organizes the event. She said the event is geared to reflect the changing face of the area. “We have so many young families now so this is a way for businesses to give back to the neighborhood in way that meets the needs of neighborhood and the kids.� The day kicks off with a pancake breakfast and raffle from 7:30-11 a.m. at the Totem Yacht Club, 5045 N. Highland St. Enjoy a hearty meal to start the day and get in on a chance to win prizes from local businesses including Antique Sandwich Company, Ruston Galleries and more. The Family Fair runs from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and features an old-fashioned theme with pony rides all day, wagon rides noon-3 p.m., face painting, kids games from noon-2 p.m., shopping, a coloring contest and a cupcake walk at 1 p.m. with delicious prizes from Hello, Cupcake! A Kidical Mass Family Bike Ride is set for a 1.7-mile ride to Pt. Ruston and stop at the Family Fair along the way. Meet-up at 10:30 a.m. near the Copperline Apartments (4760 Ruston Way), where the new Point Ruston trail starts. If you’re driving to the start, there’s a big gravel lot across the street (on the south side of Ruston Way) where you can park for the afternoon. The ride will follow the waterfront trail north around Point Ruston toward the marina, then up the hillside toward the main entrance to Point Defiance Park and to the Fair. Riders are welcome to hang out at the Fair for an hour before regrouping again for a ride back down the hill, or stay longer at the fair, or head back early. Jeff ’s Ice Cream will be along for the ride to hand out a free ice cream treat to all riders courtesy of the Tacoma Wheelmen’s Bicycle Club. The vintage car show runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and is open to all special interest vehicles. Registration opens at 7:30 a.m.,

Guest Editorial

3PULILYY` YH[LK Âş,_JLW[PVUHSS` >LSS 8\HSPMPLK Âť LUKVYZLK I` SVJHS SLHKLYZ Judicial candidate Jeanette Lineberry announced that she was rated “Exceptionally Well Qualifiedâ€? by the Tacoma/Pierce County Bar Association, and has received endorsements from elected officials, community organization, and law enforcement. Lineberry, whose balanced service includes work as a pro-tem judge, deputy prosecutor, and civil attorney, has earned bipartisan support in her race for Pierce County District Court, Position 8. Lineberry is the only candidate endorsed by both Republican and Democratic Party organizations. “I’m honored to have broad and bipartisan support from our community,â€? said Lineberry. “I’m committed to public service and I hope to continue my service as a District Court judge.â€? In addition to party organizations, Lineberry has received the support of local law enforcement, including Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist (D), the Washington Council of Police & Sheriffs (WACOPS), Tacoma Police Union Local No. 6, and Detective Ed Troyer.

“As a deputy prosecutor, Jeanette successfully prosecuted some of our toughest cases,� said Lindquist. “Her work ethic, sense of fairness and commitment to justice will make her a great District Court judge.� As a civil attorney for the Crystal Judson Family Justice Center, Lineberry provides legal services to victims of domestic violence and their families. She also works regularly as a protem judge for the Pierce County District Court and Lakewood Municipal Court. Lineberry’s balanced experience and exceptional service has earned her the support of numerous elected officials in addition to Lindquist, including Tacoma City Councilmembers Marty Campbell, Ryan Mello and Anders Ibsen, Rep. Dick Muri (R -Steilacoom), Rep. Dawn Morrell (D-Puyallup), Pierce County Council Chair Dan Roach (R-Bonney Lake), Pierce County Councilmember Doug Richardson (R-Lakewood), former Pierce County Councilmember

Shawn Bunney, Steilacoom Mayor Ron Lucas, Lakewood Mayor Don Anderson, University Place Mayor Javier Figueroa, and many others, including numerous attorneys and judges. Lineberry and her husband Doug, a major in the Washington Army National Guard and Iraq War veteran, live in Gig Harbor with their two daughters.

The First Amendment right of free speech does not shield people from the ramifications of what they say. And sometimes the blowback against what people say hits them where it hurts most, in their wallets. Controversial rocker Ted Nugent might be wise to learn that lesson following the latest round of concert cancellations caused by his inflammatory racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic rants against pretty much everyone who isn’t a plaid-shirt wearing, rich white man with a straw hat and a microphone. His on-stage blasts have included calling President Barack Obama a “subhuman mongrel� and a “chimpanzee� who should “suck on my machine gun� and referred to the former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton a “toxic (expletive).� That’s all fair game since they are public figures and well positioned for public criticism no matter how sophomorically stated. But Nugent’s schoolyard name-calling extends to anyone who doesn’t believe in his world views against social and racial equality as “unclean vermin� for raising objections to his comments. Heaven forbid Native Americans would prefer not to be called “red skins� through the perpetuation of the racist name of the football team – housed in the nation’s capital. What he calls his crusade against political correctness is called by others as simply the changing of a racist slur in everyday life. To them, he gives no quarter by calling them a conspiracy of lunatic fringe groups who, “by all indicators, I don’t think actually qualify as people.� “Freedom of speech is good for everybody in the United States,� Puyallup Tribe Chairman Bill Sterud said. “But racism is intolerable on this reservation because we’ve had to put up with racism for hundreds of years – and still do to this day.� So it is with the backdrop of his less-than-Hallmark card comments that first the Coeur d’Alene Tribe opted to cancel a scheduled performance in August, and most recently the Puyallup Tribe, which operates the Emerald Queen Casino, decided likewise to cancel two of Nugent’s upcoming shows. The list of venues will likely grow in the coming months as the gun-loving – yet draft dodging – rocker continues to speak and those “fringe lunatic� non-humans petition their local venues to cancel upcoming performances as a way to avoid supporting hate-filled views and calls for violence against people who disagree with him. Certainly, having such views are not illegal – until the views become actions. But Nugent isn’t the only one in America with free speech protection. People can protest with their calls and the withholding of their wallets. Since Ted Nugent wants everyone to know his racist ideas, let him know yours by contacting his management company, McGhee Entertainment at (310) 358-9200 or info@McgheeLA.com or his daughter, Sasha, who manages his advertising availability at (517) 750-9060 or Sasha@TedNugent. com.

Letters to the Editor [Editor’s Note: This letter by Greg Taft was published in the July 25 Tacoma Weekly but the letter writer’s name at the end was incorrect. It is being re-run here in full. Tacoma Weekly apologizes for the error.] Dear Editor, In the July 4 issue of the Tacoma Weekly I noted another Chris Britt editorial cartoon, this time demeaning the Supreme Court’s decision pertaining to Hobby Lobby. It was his usual faire, mischaracterization in order to mislead and obscure the real issue. In reality, I suspect Mr. Britt has little real concern for women’s rights. The issue of women’s rights is simply a straw man argument or smokescreen used by himself, dissenting members of SCOTUS, and many others, (primarily Democrats) to hide behind. The real target is religious freedom. He and they are troubled that people of religious persuasion might dare to follow the dictates of their conscience rather than cower to the demands of the government. It also seemed somewhat ironic to me that as we celebrated the 4th of July, Mr. Britt launches an attack against one of the primary sources of energy that drove and propelled the American Declaration of Independence, i.e., the very event we were celebrating. And, that source of energy was a passion for religious freedom. All one need do is examine the origins of the original 13 colonies to recognize the seeds of our very beginning were provided primarily by those seeking freedom from religious persecution in the countries of their origin. The freedom to practice one’s religion and follow the dictates of conscience represent a core principle undergirding our country’s founding. It appears Mr. Britt and associates would like to go Old World and deny us that liberty. Some claim this is an example of religious beliefs being imposed on others. Such a claim is simply nonsense. There’s no imposition of religious belief here. At the core of this issue is simply one thing and that is, does the government have the right to force people to pay for women’s choices in the area of birth control? The truth is, women are still free to make any choice they want and nothing has changed. They have complete freedom to exercise their liberty to do whatever they desire no matter how barbaric in some cases. It is, in fact, a non-crisis, and life will go on just as before. But, the Britts of the world wish to force others to violate the dictates of their conscience by forcing them to pay for the more drastic measures such as late term abortions. The bottom line in this whole thing is the desire on the part of today’s liberals and progressives (in particular) to stifle dissent and use raw government power to bully those that disagree with them. We’ve seen more and more of that in the last five years as this administration

and Democrats in general continue to ignore the laws in this country and violate the Constitution with impunity. If Mr. Britt had any genuine concern about liberty and freedom, he might focus attention on that area rather than being a part of the problem. But that might require a bit of fairness and honesty, and that is something I suspect is the least of his concerns. Greg Taft Edgewood Dear Editor, I appreciated Greg Taft’s letter to the editor (July 25 issue) relative to Chris Britt’s depressing political cartoons. Though I don’t claim to understand the artist’s motivations for creating such downbeat material, I don’t think these cartoons are doing the Tacoma Weekly or your advertisers any favors. Maybe it’s time to find someone who creates clever and insightful cartoons rather than cranky and fatalistic ones. Steven Case Tacoma Dear Editor, Once again voting time is upon us. The primaries are a significant time to make a difference by choosing the people who will run in the general election. The more people who vote, the more politicians listen. What if we had an amazing turnout? Our politicians would notice. Then of course we still need to use our voices to let them know what is important. There are serious problems that need attention in our country and our world. It calls for action in the halls of government, not gridlock and excuses. We have excellent, hard-working representatives in Adam Smith, Denny Heck and Derek Kilmer, but they need to hear from us. Our voices let them know that we need universal pre-kindergarten so all children will be ready for school. There are 48 million hungry people in the world’s richest country; our voices can help change that. In our world, kids without education have little hope. The Global Partnership for Education fell short in funding to get 29 million more children in school. If we speak up, that can change. Even worse, without vaccinations or nutrition, 3 million children under 5 die unnecessarily each year. The GAVI Alliance is helping to immunize millions, but needs funding. All these solutions will create a more peaceful world, one full of hope. It all starts with voting, then becomes possible as we raise our voices. Willie Dickerson Snohomish

Defiance’s master plan includes improvements to better promote the combined zoo and aquarium complex as well as the scenic and other recreational opportunities located around the park, which attracts more than 700,000 visitors a year making it the county’s second most popular attraction behind Mount Rainier. But that can’t happen until the first domino falls, and that is the go-kart site. “They used the 90-day clause on us,� Langley said. “But we have been on a 90-day lease for the last 15 years. It is really tough to run a business like that.� Langley would like to stay at the current location and have a longer lease to allow him some business security so he could upgrade the facility without fear of being forced to move.

Natasha Thayer, co-owner of Studio 6 Ballroom on 6th Avenue, organized the ribbon cutting event to show her neighbors a big welcome into the neighborhood as she has done in the past with new businesses on The

a visitors’ center and commercial complex. The go-kart facility sits next to the SAMI (Science and Math Institute) campus of Tacoma Schools, which is working on options to either stay on the site or move to a yet-to-bedetermined spot elsewhere in the park after the next school year. None of these plans are particularly new. Metro Parks first outlined a Point Defiance master plan that included redevelopment of Langley’s leased space more than a decade ago and formalized it in 2008. The down economy stalled matters that are now moving forward with plans as the economy recovers. Moving to another site in the 700-acre Point Defiance Park isn’t likely since no other site would provide the visibility of the current location, which draws about 30,000 visitors each summer. So it comes down to either staying put or closing down. And the clock is ticking.

A gathering of a few dozen gokarters and supporters spanning four generations from Tacoma, Spanaway, Bremerton, Lake Bay, Gig Harbor and Olympia voiced their support for the family business at a parks board meeting Monday, July 28, months before the go-karting company’s lease is set to expire in November unless a new one is approved. The meeting included nostalgic tales of parents taking their children go-karting, followed by those children bringing their own offspring later in life; and of children celebrating the day they were finally tall enough to race around the track in their own car without a parent squished behind them in the seat; and of grandparents bringing their grandchildren zipping around the track and recounting their “victories� over a burger at local restaurants. More than 3,200 people have signed a petition asking the parks board to allow the go-karts to stay

Ave. “I organized it because I thought it was the right thing to do for my new neighbors; that they should be congratulated for their first feat in their new venture,� she said. Showing support and the importance of harvesting new local businesses in Tacoma, this is the second ribbon cutting Thayer has organized. “There are a couple more businesses opened in the last year that unfortunately our district did not find a priority to organize a ribbon cutting for: Satori, Legendary Doughnuts, Tandem, Tacoma Bike. I did not want the most recent ones to be missed as well,� Thayer said. The celebration of new busi-

nesses on 6th Avenue ended at Ice Cream Social, 2914 6th Ave. This adorable, new ice cream parlor is a perfect fit to the neighborhood with a selection of many decadent flavors all in handmade waffle cones. With a similar feel as Molly Moon’s in Seattle or Salt and Straw in Portland, Tacoma now has our very own ice cream shop featuring flavors like salted caramel, fig and honey and earl green tea. If you like trying fun new flavors then you will enjoy a trip to Ice Cream Social on a hot summer day. Strickland and popular Tacoma figure Kristopher “The Sonics Guy� Brannon, among others at the ribbon cutting, enjoyed trying a first scoop of ice cream together. The event provided a great scene of community and support for Tacoma and all the new local businesses that have chosen our city as their new home. So head down to 6th Ave this weekend and stop into any of these new businesses to buy local and have a great time.

at the Pearl Street mouth of Point Defiance Park. “I love riding go-karts,� said supporter Lowell Williams. “I don’t know why; it’s just my thing.� He spent much of his spare time during his military service riding go-karts around the world because it was inexpensive, family friendly and thrilling, particularly for children and teens, who are increasingly finding fewer things to do. “If we keep diminishing things for them to do, there will be nothing left to do,� he said. Robert Bonnell has been racing around the track for more than 30 years, starting as a toddler when he and his family would visit his grandfather, who was a biologist at the zoo. Bonnell now takes his family go-karting regularly. The go-karting operation is the last vestige of what was once a vibrant entertainment center dating back to 1933, when Funland opened with a host of carnival

games and rides. The facility operated through World War II only to close and then reopen in 1951, after an extensive renovation. It operated for another two decades and closed in phases through the 1960s and 1970s. Langley’s gokarts and batting cages are the only private operations on the former amusement park site. “You are removing history. I want you to know that,� Regan Ireland said to the board. The five-member parks board of commissioners didn’t comment about the plans other than to thank the speakers for their comments. “They were articulate and informed,� Board President Tim Reid said. He talked with the gathering of speakers after the meeting about his memories of Funland back in the day and advised Langley to look for other potential sites for his go-karting business, particularly as a tie in with parks in Tacoma’s East Side.

W Computer using technology to make positive change and stand up for youth rights in issues such as education, environment, freedom and safety, health, and speech and expression.� Intel founded the first of its 100 clubhouses in 1993 to give kids in underserved neighborhoods the tools and tutoring to join the wonderful, powerful world of computing. In 2001, Luversa Sullivan, Ph.D., wrestled the program onto Tacoma’s Hilltop. She used her ties with Evergreen State College in Tacoma, Allen AME Church and Allen Renaissance to get the site and enough backing to satisfy Intel’s requirements for the computer equipment and membership in the network. The site – an old building in an alley – is humble, and oddly appropriate to an industry

where so many giants hark back to a garage. Sullivan made it all work. She connected kids’ passions for music, science, math, arts and games to the tools that made them soar. She set high standards for behavior, achievement and plans. Jaleesa Trapp was in the seventh grade at Hunt Middle School when she came to the clubhouse. She was not loving her English classes, and specifically not sympathizing with Romeo or Juliet when Sullivan linked the lovers to a computer project – an interactive CDRom. Trapp built it then realized she’d learned more about the play then she’d intended. She’d been snookered into overachievement, and that excited her. Sullivan challenged her and connected her to opportu-

tag is about $2.5 billion and would likely need to be tied to tax increases on gas and retail sales. Despite wide-reaching support from Republicans and Democrats in Olympia for all of that time, funding for the final leg never comes. But lawmakers, as they have every year for two decades, continue to pledge to look for “reforms� and “efficiencies� to keep the effort alive as a way to improve freight mobility between the industrial and warehouse centers found in the Puyallup Valley and Port of Tacoma waters, and increase economic development in the region. One recent package to fund SR 167’s completion included nearly $1 billion through a gas tax increase of 10.5 cents per gallon, and was called by legislators around the state as “the single largest economic development project in the state.� It failed. State lawmakers now face budget troubles surrounding the Supreme Court’s McCleary decision in 2012 that demanded the state spend more on public education. Washington might

even face contempt of court sanctions for not obeying the order during the last budget by not making progress toward funding what the state Constitution calls “the paramount duty of the state.� Plans now call for adding about $1 billion to public education funding during the next two years, with more increases in future budgets, further cutting into the state’s pool of dollars for transportation projects. With lawmakers unable or unwilling to obey court orders to uphold the state’s paramount duty of providing educational funding, it seems a funding package for a project that has lingered for decades would be dead on arrival.

nities, including an internship with Microsoft, an education in engineering at the University of Washington and an AmeriCorps year working at Peace Community Church’s after-school education program. Trapp credits Sullivan with pushing, connecting and organizing her enough to grab for her potential. Then, on June 13, 2011, Sullivan died unexpectedly. The clubhouse remained open, thanks to the perseverance of Allen AME Church members. But without Sullivan’s computing charisma, the programming suffered, Trapp said. The kids were using the computers, but without the challenges Sullivan had posed for them. “They weren’t producing any projects,� Trapp said. They were exploring without a guide, or just playing, both of which were a lot better than some of the alternatives, but they weren’t meeting the standards set

by Intel, or Sullivan. “Ms. Luversa had a rule,� Trapp said. “No games until 6 p.m., unless you’re making the game.� Alliyah Peoples felt the loss. “The clubhouse changed my life by giving me a safe place,� she said. “I went through a rebellious stage and came in here to work on projects. I have a wide imagination. I would get really interested in projects.� She and Jade Hicks enjoyed the clubhouse together, but found different interests there. With Sullivan gone, the clubhouse lost the magic for both of them. “I would come in on and off. I was gone about a good year,� Alliyah said. “Then I came in one day and saw Jaleesa was here.� Trapp saved the program when an Intel rep said the program wasn’t complying with requirements because it has no one to run it. There was no money to

pay a director, but Trapp stepped in anyway. Intel pays for supplies and the netywork. Allen AME pays for the building and utilities. Donations, if there are any, pay for Trapp. Alliyah passed the word that Trapp was back to Jade. They spread the word and got down to work. They created projects, including one measuring surface water pollution. They backed up the math tutoring and proof school work. They helped plan the summer program. They mentored younger kids making videos, designing games. They even vacuumed and did dishes. Trapp says they have helped rebuild the Clubhouse. They have proven themselves as leaders. She went with them to Boston, where she is on the conference staff. That, she said, is a good position to see and celebrate as Jade and Alliyah vacuum up information, ideas and the joy of the possibilities ahead of them.

things we make, it’s harder to conjure up something new,� Fleming said “We need to branch out a little bit, and for me personally, there’s so much more to be found in nature.� Fleming will be getting a new view on life when she travels to Chicago with two other local artists, photographer Seth Wheeler and painter Ruby Smith, to begin her college career at the School of the Arts Institute of Chicago, where she will attempt to get her master’s degree focusing on fine arts and graphic design. “She’s young, but her focus is really clear, where most young artists are searching, she really knows what she wants to say with her work,� Placentia said. “Her attention matches her skills and abilities, she communicates with her artwork in ways young artists are still struggling to do.�

I’m figuring out my edge, and I’m still in the process of learning and I’m not sure if I’ll ever not be in the process.� Fleming’s vision and message were recently brought to life by “Chasm,� a 13-piece series of paintings presented at the Tacoma Art Museum telling a linear story that explores the interaction of a constricting urban environment with the freedom of nature. Fleming hopes to use these storytelling abilities to one day work on graphic novels. “When we’re surrounded by

A

t the beginning of the season it had been marked as the probable game of the year in the Western Washington Football Alliance. The regular-season-ending match-up between the perennial powerhouse Pierce County Bengals and the promising second-year franchise Puyallup Nation Kings looked like a can’t miss for football fans. Indeed, it was all that and more. The number five nationally-ranked Kings fought off an unrelenting Bengals squad for a 24-21 victory and claimed the 2014 WWFA regular season crown and capping a perfect 9-0 season. The sizeable crowd at Sumner’s Sunset Stadium witnessed a fun, if not bizarre, contest that stretched out over three hours and twenty minutes, with the game still in doubt with 1:45 to play. The Kings had been outscoring their opponents by an average score of 48-6 over the course of the season and meanwhile, the Bengals (7-2) lone loss of the season was a 14-13 loss to the secondplace Renton Ravens. Something was going to have to give. Pierce County was the first to start the giving when Bengals quarterback Octavis Walton saw his first-and-ten snap from the fifty-yard line sail over his head. Kings linebacker Mack Ioramo scooped up the ball at the Bengals 30-yard line and rambled untouched into the end-zone for a touchdown just two minutes into the game. Kicker Ryan Burks added the pointafter and the Kings led 7-0. Puyallup held the Bengals to a threeand-out on the ensuing possession and began to go to work with their vaunted ground attack. After moving the ball 42 yards down the field, quarterback Justin Southern’s first pass of the game sailed high and was intercepted by the Bengals’ Junior Meade at the four yard line, who brought it back out to the 15-yard line. Another bad snap by the Bengals and monster linebacker Nick Noga fell on the ball at the 14 yard line. An offside penalty and two plays later running back Isaac Syph would put his head down and punched through the center of the line for a three-yard touchdown. Burks nailed the point-after kick and the Kings now led 14-0 with 4:58 left in the first quarter. The two teams would trade off punts over the next three possessions with the Bengals’ Meade drilling solid 51 and 41 yard kicks that kept the Kings deep in their own territory. Following a strong defensive stand by the Bengals and facing fourth-and-14 from their own 32-yard line, Burks mishandled the punt snap, tucked the ball under his arm and began sprinting for the first-down marker. The Bengals stopped him five yards short and took over on downs. Déjà vu struck again as the Bengals

After the half, the Kings had first possession and moved the ball quickly down the field powered by Syph runs of 32 and 29 yards. The drive stalled near the Bengals goal and the Kings settled for a 31-yard Burks field goal and a 17-6 advantage with 10:32 remaining in the third quarter. Puyallup forced another Bengals punt on the following possession. After a 12-yard run by Syph, the Kings series also sputtered and Burks came on for a punt. The punter hung a high kick that bounced at the 18-yard line and went backwards all the way to the 32-yard line before being touched by a Kings defender. However, there was a Kings penalty on the play and instead of taking the ball with decent field possession, the Bengals rolled the dice and opted for another kick from Burks.

The City of Destiny played host to one of the oldest tennis tournaments in the world from July 21 to 27, and Mother Nature nearly crashed the party. The Pacific Northwest Open celebrated 123 years of dazzling tennis at the beautiful Tacoma Lawn Tennis Club and the tournament organizers had to deal with something that hasn’t been seen during the tournament in nearly two decades: rain. With well over 100 of the best tennis players in the Northwest and from around the nation coming to Tacoma for the PNW Open for just seven days, there’s not a whole lot of wiggle room if the rains wash out the schedule. Luckily, there was just a few sprinkles on Tuesday, while Wednesday was a stormy and unyielding. Tournament staff moved massive amounts of water and leaves from the courts before Thursday’s play resumed and the PNW Open resumed without a hitch. They were able to adjust for the time lost, stacking matches and pushing players to their physical limits as some were competing in multiple events. When the dust cleared on Championship Sunday, it was many of the tournament favorites that were working center court and walking away with the trophies and the prize money from the record $22,000 in payouts this year. Under blue, cloudless skies a packed gallery witnessed Men’s Singles number-one seed Kyle McMorrow battle back from a first set loss to take two straight from second-seed Ben McLachlan. The former Cal Bear all-American looked sharp in the first set taking a 6-3 victory over McMorrow, but dropped the first two games of the second set to the former University of Washington all-American. McLachlan would bounce back with two straight games of his own, tying the set at 2-2 only to see McMorrow buckle-down and win the next two. Trailing 2-4, McLachlan put together a two-game run that probably saw the last of his best. With the set tied at 4-4, McMorrow ran-off the next two games, including two deuces in the final game for a 6-4 set win. With the sets tied at 1-1, McMorrow looked to be strengthening as McLachlan seemed to be running out of gas. The first four games went to deuce in the final set and McMorrow took advantage of his strong serve to take three of them. Leading 3-1, McMorrow turned-up the pressure and won each point in the fifth game. Overheating, trailing 4-1 and really pushing it, McLachlan was at 30-love in the sixth game when the elements

snap was fumbled and Puyallup defensive tackle TuTu Tamaalevea recovered the ball. With just over six minutes left in the half, it looked as though the Kings might enter break with a shutout and possibly a few more points on the board. The Bengals had other plans. Facing third-and-10 from the Bengals 40-yard line, Southern dropped back and fired a bullet toward the Kings sideline. At the same moment, Bengals defensive end Su’e Teu Teu jumped into the air and miraculously pulled the ball in with both hands. Teu Teu made a mad-dash down the field and was caught by a host of Kings at the eight yard line. However, before the big man hit the turf, he flipped the ball back to Jimmy “Butter” Burkley who then pulled-off a front-flip into the end-zone. Kicker Pierre Culliver had his point-after kick blocked and the 14-6 Kings lead held to halftime.

SPOTLIGHT ON: JORDAN PRIES Rainiers’ starter has baseball in his genes By Karen Westeen missbaseball9@juno.com

Right-handed pitcher Jordan Pries, 24, was drafted by Seattle in 2011 in the 30th round. Before he came to Tacoma on April 19, 2014, he had pitched in Everett (2011), Peoria and Clinton (2012) and High Desert (2013). As of July 27 he leads the team in wins with a record of 7-6 in 18 starts with a 3.78 ERA. Pries sat down recently with Tacoma Weekly’s baseball correspondent, Karen Westeen, to talk about his career so far as well as a couple of famous ancestors. KW: You are from the Bay Area. Have you lived there all your life? JP: Yes. I was born and raised in Alameda, Calif. KW: Is your family still there? JP: Yes, my mom and dad are there. My only sister grew up there and returned after moving away for a while. I have a new-born nephew, about a month and a half old. I got to meet him a couple of weeks ago. KW: You still call that area home? JP: For the most part. I got drafted after my junior year at Stanford. I had two quarters remaining to finish, and I had the opportunity to go back and finish one of those quarters in 2011 in the fall right after I got drafted; but the way the schedule worked out I wasn’t able to go back until this past year. I graduated in December. This year I assume I’ll be back in that area, whether it’s going to school or working. KW: What was your major? JP: Science technology in society. KW: Have you thought about what you’ll do with the information? JP: I haven’t really, but I think it would be a huge waste not to incorporate baseball and sports in some point in my life. I’ve thought about ESPN and broadcasting in some way or something to do in the front office and offer some of my knowledge to help improve the ballgame or get people to go to the games. KW: Has your family been up here to see you play yet? JP: They haven’t been here but we play a lot of games near the Bay area– Reno, Sacramento and Fresno–so they’ve been to their fair share of games. They’d like to get up here before the season ends. KW: How about a family of your own? JP: I have a girlfriend but no family yet. KW: What’s your earliest baseball memory? JP: Other than tee ball, probably being on the field after practice, staying on the field taking grounders and hitting for hours. I’ve loved the game from a young age and I’d play all day until it got dark. KW: Did you play other sports? JP: I played basketball in middle

school but not when I got to high school. I wish I would have played football but my parents weren’t too keen on me going out there and risking injury. I played golf, too, in school. In the summers when I wasn’t on the baseball field I was playing golf and I still love to play. KW: Any other positions? JP: I was a catcher in Little League and shortstop and second base were the positions I played all through high school. When I got to Stanford they wanted me to just concentrate on pitching. KW: Were you expecting the Mariners to draft you? JP: I really wasn’t because we had a scout day in college when you could talk to a lot of teams. The Mariners were one team I hadn’t talked to. I was very thankful they did take a PHOTO BY RICHARD TRASK / TACOMA RAINIERS chance on me because there was a lot of stress 46<5+ 9(050,9 Jordan Pries leads the Rainiers in wins (7) and innings pitched (104.2).

Twelve-year old Kelee Ringo is making a name for himself on the national track and field stage. The sixth grader from Baker Middle School competed at the National Junior Olympic Meet on Sunday, July 27. Ringo, a member of the Cheetah Track Club of Tacoma, finished second in the 11/12 year old 100-meter dash with a finals time of 12.43 seconds and finished fifth in the 400-meter dash with a time of 56.37 seconds. Ringo has clocked personal-best times of 12.01 and 55.56 this season in the 100 and 400. “Kelee is one of the humblest and hardest working young men I have coached, and it has been a pleasure coaching him over the past four years to prepare for this past event,� said coach Brandon Ervin. “His hard work and dedication showed that he deserved to represent the City of Tacoma, Cheetah Track Club and the State of Washington. He is truly an angel sent from above.�

Puyallup native and former Pacific Lutheran softball assistant Lance Glasoe will take the reins as PLU’s softball head coach, PLU athletic director Laurie Turner announced July 23. Glasoe returns to PLU after a six-year stretch as pitching coach for the University of Washington softball team, where he coached a pair of All-American pitchers in Danielle Lawrie and Kaitlin Inglesby. He was an assistant coach on the 2009 NCAA Div. I National Championship Husky team, with University of Washington claiming National Coaching Staff of the Year honors that season. During his time at UW, the Huskies advanced to the Women’s College World Series three times. “I am thrilled to welcome the caliber of coach that Lance is to the PLU community,� Turner said. “The breadth of his coaching experience at the high school level and at one of the top Division I programs in the nation, not to mention his previous PLU experience, make him an outstanding selection.� Glasoe served as the Lutes’ pitching coach under former PLU head coach Rick Noren from 2006-08, following softball head coaching stints at Sumner and Bonney Lake high schools. While at Sumner, Glasoe led the Spartans to three consecutive state finals appearances and won two league championships.

PHOTOS BY ROCKY ROSS

Glasoe will look to bring some stability to a program that won the NCAA Div. III national title in 2012 but will now have its third head coach in as many years. Since 1981, the PLU softball program boasts a 909-386-2 overall record (.702 winning percentage), a 466-149 Northwest Conference record, 16 NWC titles and three national championships (NAIA titles in 1988 and 1992 and the NCAA title in 2012). Last season, the Lutes finished with a 16-24 overall record and placed sixth in the conference standings with a 13-15 mark. “I’ve worked with softball players at a lot of different levels, and I hope to use that experience to help our players get better at every level and make PLU a destination program in the Northwest,� Glasoe said. “I’m excited to get to know the team. I know a few of the players already, but I look forward to getting to know everybody and preparing for the season.�

The Pacific Lutheran men’s basketball team claimed several academic honors this week as the National Association of Basketball Coaches awarded the Lutes with a 2013-14 Team Academic Excellence Award, while a trio of Lute players were named to the NABC Honors Court. As a team, PLU was one of 125 colleges and universities among every NCAA and NAIA level to earn the Team Academic Excellence Award. The award recognizes outstanding academic achievement by a team with a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or better for the season. PLU players Andrew Alness, Kevin McCrossin and Austen Wilson each qualified for the Honors Court, among a total of nearly 900 student-athletes from 335 colleges and universities. To qualify for the award, students must have achieved at least junior academic standing with a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.2 at the conclusion of the 201314 academic year.

intercepted by Ronald Pate at the Kings 23-yard line and the home team Bengals were within a stone’s throw of the end-zone. The Kings defense would rise to the occasion again. Pernelle Turnipseed sacked Leggett on the first play for a seven-yard loss. Following a delay of game penalty, the Bengals Ronald Purdue was stuffed for a one-yard loss. Facing third-and-23 now, Leggett dropped back to pass and fumbled the ball as he was swarmed by Kings defenders. Darius Dennis fell on the ball and the Kings would take over at the 50-yard line. Isaac Syph and Donald McKee combined for three straight runs for first downs and McKee capped it with a seven yard scamper over the left side for a touchdown. Burks was successful on the point-after kick and the Kings led 24-14 with just 2:37 left in the game. Pierce County would not go away quietly. Rondie Pate again sent the crowd to their feet on the ensuing kickoff returning the ball 61 yards to the Kings 37 yard line. Things didn’t start pretty on the drive however as Walton threw an incompletion and then saw another snap sail off the mark and was luckily recovered by the Bengals after a 22-yard loss. Now with under two minutes to play and facing third-and-32 from their own 40 yard line, it was desperation time for the Bengals.. With a heated rush in his face, Walton lofted a long pass down the sideline that dropped from the sky into the extended arms of Ronald Purdue. Purdue nearly fell, but regained his balance and sprinted to the

From page A10

This time Burks sailed a booming punt to the Bengals nine-yard line where 2011 Tacoma Weekly Athlete of the Year Rondie Pate caught the ball near the sideline and was almost immediately greeted by three Kings defenders. The former Mt. Tahoma Thunderbird spun completely around while being hit and somehow remained on his feet. Pate sprinted toward midfield and up the Kings sideline untouched for an electrifying 91-yard touchdown. The Bengals faked the point-after kick and Stokely Leggett hit Randhan Agu in the end-zone for a two-point conversion. The Kings lead was now just 17-14 with 4:54 left in the third quarter and the momentum shift could be felt in the stadium. Turnovers bit both teams throughout the game and the Kings felt the teeth again on the next possession. After successfully moving the ball into Bengals territory, receiver Raymond Ross hauled-in a 12 yard pass from Southern only to have the ball knocked out by Bengal defenders and recovered by Junior Meade at the 13-yard line. The next Bengals possession would take over seven minutes while the two teams racked-up seven penalties combined. With the ball at the Kings 48 yard line, Leggett launched a long pass down the sidelines and was intercepted by Ross at the eight-yard line after Agu, the intended receiver, broke off his route. Two minutes later, Southern was

end-zone, just making it to the pile-on before being tackled from behind. Culliver added the point-after kick and the Kings lead was down to 24-21 with 1:45 remaining. Time ran out on the Bengals as the Kings ran for a first down to open the final drive and a few plays later Southern took a knee to end the game. For the game, running back Isaac Syph would have to pull double-duty against the Bengals as his spectacular backfield partner Chris McCutchin would sit out the game with a sprained knee. Syph delivered with the groundperformance of the season for the Kings as he racked up 239 yards on 23 carries and a touchdown. McKee added 77 yards on 12 carries. The referees may have been icing their shoulders and elbows following the contest as they threw flags for a combined 36 penalties. The teams also combined for five fumbles and five interceptions. Puyallup held the Bengals to 103 yards of total offense while rolling-up 419 yards of their own. Pierce County will host the Snohomish County Vikings on Saturday, August 2 at Sumner’s Sunset Stadium at 2 p.m. in the first round of the WWFA playoffs. The winner will travel to play the Renton Ravens the following Saturday. As league champions, the Kings have a first-round bye and will host the winner of the Puget Sound Outlaws/ Thurston County Mayhem game which kicks off at 5 p.m. Saturday, August 2 at Harry Lang Stadium in Lakewood. The Kings will play the winner on August 9 at Chief Leschi Stadium at 6 p.m.

and he requested a medical time-out. He appeared to be a little out-of-sorts and possibly nauseous. After the allowed recovery time, the men returned to the court. “I was struggling with the heat for a while, but I’m feeling better now,� McLachlan would say later. McMorrow took the final two points to finish the game and then closed-out the last game like a champion taking all four points and a 6-1 final set victory. “We had some great battles in college and I hope this is just the beginning for us as professionals,� said McMorrow who won $4,000 for the 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 performance. In the earlier Women’s Singles championship, Kirkland’s Maggy Lehmicke stumbled early dropping the first set to Riko Shimizu 4-6, but came back strong with consecutive 6-1 sets. Lehmicke, a junior at the University of Nebraska had to opt for the champion’s trophy and a gift certificate instead of the $2,000 winner’s share due to NCAA regulations. Shimizu, a former Washington Husky, took home $1,000 as the runner-up. Later in the afternoon, McMorrow returned to action with teammate Joel Kielbowicz to win the Men’s Doubles title (6-2, 6-2) over Marton Bots and Guillermo Gomez. Shimitzu also returned to claim another runner-up finish with teammate Julija Lukac in Women’s Doubles. The pair lost to Haley Dy and Irina Tereschenko 4-6, 6-1, 6-1. Mitch Stewart and Denise Dy won the Mixed Doubles after Haley Gay and Garrett Patton withdrew from the competition. Campbell Johnson, a quarter-finalist in the Men’s Singles, was the recipient of the newlyrenamed Georgia Howell Sportsmanship Award. Mrs. Howell passed away in February and was a cornerstone of the Tacoma Lawn Tennis Club for the past 35 years.

alking into The Olive Branch CafĂŠ and Tea Room at 731 Commerce St. may be a confusing experience. Is it a restaurant or a rich aunt’s mansion? Luckily, the question is quickly solved when a host of waitresses invite you in for an old fashioned southern experience in the middle of the Pacific Northwest. “We want people to feel like they’ve walked into somebody’s home and they know them already,â€? waitress Loretta Meminger said. “Warm, welcoming, great food, a different ambiance – to me, it’s like no other restaurant I’ve ever seen. We believe in making everybody feel special, everybody, no matter what.â€? You certainly feel special surrounded by cabinets of china and expensive looking art as you scarf down your meal, but The Olive Branch has a secret – nearly everything in the restaurant has been purchased from thrift stores. Meminger and owner Terry Waller spend their afternoons looking for new decorations at locations like Goodwill to add to the restaurant’s ambiance. “I did this all on my own – no loans. I painted, I bought this carpet, everything,â€? Waller said. The Olive Branch CafĂŠ offers a breakfast and lunch menu filled with sandwiches and salads, but the real strength lies in its tea options.

PUYALLUP TRIBAL IMPACT SUPPORTING THE ECONOMIC GROWTH OF OUR COMMUNITY

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

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

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

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

Millions in funding for local governments

Washington State Patrol was approved to receive $75,000 to help mitigate [YHMĂ„J ZHML[` PTWHJ[LK I` JHZPUV WH[YVUZ

Each year, the Puyallup Tribe distributes 2 percent of its gaming revenue from its two Emerald Queen Casino locations to local governments. Over the years the Tribe has provided millions of dollars to fund vital projects and services, from police and fire to road and traffic improvements. Decisions on how to distribute this money are made by the Community Contribution Committee, which consists of representatives of the Puyallup Tribe; the cities of Tacoma, Puyallup and Fife; Pierce County; and the Washington State Gambling Commission. This year’s approved distribution was for $1.9 million and was awarded as follows: The City of Fife was approved to receive $850,000, an amount determined by an interlocal agreement between the City and the Tribe.

This money will help fund a broad array of cityprovided services and infrastructure improvements. The City of Puyallup was approved to receive $30,000 for River Road safety and capacity improvements. The City of Tacoma was approved to receive $851,549 to help cover police, fire department and city attorney’s costs concerning casino-related calls. Pierce County was approved to receive $148,051 for emergency management services. This covers the cost of assigning county employees to assist the Tribe in preparing to deal with natural disasters. Washington State Patrol was approved to receive $75,000 for costs associated with mitigating traffic safety issues on state highways impacted by casino patrons.

Partnering to improve local transportation Partnering with local jurisdictions to improve local transportation, in the past six years the Tribe has spent more than $35 million on transportation projects and traffic safety services in neighboring areas. These are largely done in collaboration with state and local governments to benefit the region’s growing traffic infrastructure, which helps everyone. Projects range from lighting and safety improvements, to bridges and reconstruction projects, providing hundreds of jobs to local engineers, tradesmen, environmental and cultural resource consultants, construction contractors, and the like. Examples of the Tribe’s expenditures over the past six years to completed and ongoing projects include: 30th Street Safety Project, Tacoma Paving, lighting, ADA access, replacement of sidewalks on both sides of 30th Avenue from Portland Avenue to R Street, and one side of 31st Avenue, including relocation of public utilities. Permitted through the City of Tacoma. The project was completed spring of 2013. 31st Street Rehabilitation Project, Tacoma Funds will go towards repavement, establish curb and stormwater facilities, street trees, and relocation of public utilities.

Last year’s inaugural event brought out more than 1,500 attendees and this year is projected to be even larger. “With quite a few brewery festivals happening in the Tacoma area, including one in Olympia this coming weekend, we are seeing ticket sales up and estimating a little larger than last year for the second Brew Five Three,” Broadway Center Marketing Director Lacey Leffler said. Among improvements made from last year is the addition of 16-ounce pint glasses as an option. The 4-ounce pilsner tasting glasses from last year will still be available for one token. The 16-ounce pint glasses can be purchased for three tokens. Admission to the event includes 10 tasting tokens and a collectible tasting glass. “We received the most feedback on the size of the glasses from last year,” Leffler said.

“We knew there would be lessons to be learned in the first year. So this year we are providing a 16-ounce pint glass option in addition to the 4-ounce pilsner taster glass.” Drawing from last year’s Brew Five Three, improvements have been made to make the event more enjoyable for all the guests. “If you find a beer you really love you can use three tokens to buy the larger 16-ounce pint,” said Leffler on the changes. Come out for beer, blues and fun this year with more than 30 Washington brewers. Participating breweries and cideries you can look forward to tasting and enjoying are Airways Brewing Company, Backwoods Brewing Company, Harmon Brewery & Eatery, Mac & Jack’s Brewing Company, Wingman Brewers, Seattle Cider Company, ScuttleButt Brewing Company and many more. Guests can look forward to not only great beer but delicious food and some swanky blues tunes too throughout the day. From 1-9 p.m. there will be a block party between South 9th and 11th streets on Broadway. As well as a variety of tasty beers, there will be delicious food from local eateries like Athena’s, Lumpia World, Murph’s Barbeque, Auto Pomp Pizzeria and B Sharp Coffee House. The music lineup this year includes Tacoma’s Stephanie Anne Johnson, who was a recent finalist on NBC’s “The Voice,” The West Coast Women’s Blues Revue, The Mark Riley Trio and Junkyard Jane. If you are a cyclist attending, Downtown On the Go will be providing free valet bike parking for you during the festival. With many great new changes to the 2014 Brew Five Three and the beautiful Pacific Northwest summer we are having, this year’s festival is sure to be a blast for all guests. Tickets are $30 and this includes 10 tasting tokens and a collectible glass. For more information and tickets visit broadwaycenter.org/events.

EMERALD QUEEN CALLS OFF THIS WEEKEND’S TED NUGENT SHOWS

month, he signed a plea agreement with federal prosecutors regarding the illegal shooting of a bear, but he has remained alive and free since. July 2, 2013: The Washington Post published a profile describing the rocker sharing his joy of machine-gunning feral pigs from a helicopter with a group of San Antonio entrepreneurs. “Four hours later I had 450 dead hogs,� he says. As an afterthought he jokes, “And now if they would just take me to South Central. Okay! I kid.� Made infamous by the music of rap group NWA and the 1992 riots that broke out in the wake of the Rodney King verdict, the New York Times describes South Central Los Angeles as “a national symbol of rage in a poor, black neighborhood.� Aug. 3, 2013: In an interview aired on Maine’s WGAN, Nugent weighed in on the trial of Florida vigilante George Zimmerman, who had recently been found not guilty in the shooting death of unarmed teen Trayvon Martin. Nugent says Martin “got justice,� calling him a “dope smoking, racist, gangsta wannabe.� New Haven, Conn. residents responded by circulating a petition demanding that his Aug. 6 appearance there be canceled. Jan. 17, 2014: During an interview with Guns.com, Nugent referred to President Obama as a “subhuman mongrel.� During the videotaped segment, he expresses anger that “a Chicago communist-raised, communist-educated, communist-nurtured, subhuman mongrel like the ACORN community organizer gangster Barack Hussein Obama to weasel his way into the top office of authority in the United States of America.�

ETHNIC FEST WAS A HIT DIVISIVE. The Nuge in better times, letting his axe do the talking. By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

It was announced last week that the Puyallup Tribe has called off Ted Nugent’s Aug. 2 and 3 appearances at their Emerald Queen Casino. The announcement came on Friday, July 25, just days after the Coeur d’Alene Tribe made national headlines by pulling the plug on Nugent’s Aug. 4 show at their casino in Idaho, citing the incendiary rocker’s record of making “racist and hate-filled remarks.� “Freedom of speech is good for everybody in the United States,� Puyallup Tribe Vice Chairman Bill Sterud said. “But racism is intolerable on this reservation because we’ve had to put up with racism for hundreds of years and still do to this day.� Sterud said the casino had been getting an average of 30 calls daily complaining about Nugent’s appearance, and that there have even been bomb threats. Nugent has appeared at the Emerald Queen annually for about a decade, and his two-night stand at the casino

sold out last year. However, Sterud said tickets were still available for this year’s shows. Refunds will be available at the point of ticket purchase. Nugent, a.k.a. the Motor City Madman, has become a lightning rod for controversy in recent years, and is now arguably better known for his frequents rants on guns, race and President Barack Obama than he is for “Cat Scratch Fever,� “Dog Eat Dog� and other ‘70s and ‘80s hits. Here are some highlights: Aug. 21, 2007: During a now infamous in-concert screed against Democrats, Nugent called senators Hillary Clinton and Dianne Feinstein� “a worthless bitch� and “a worthless whore,� respectively; and, wielding a pair of machine guns as fans cheered him on, he also has some advice for presidential hopeful Obama. “You might want to suck on one of these, you punk!� April 14, 2012: Speaking to the National Rifle Association, Nugent cryptically claimed that “if Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.� Later that

Take a Spin Aug. 2, Noon–2 p.m. PHOTOS COURTESY OF MUSEUM OF GLASS

CREATURE COMFORT. Federal Way High School students pose with their diorama, made for “Tis Ausome Landshark Ausomeness” (inset).

Inspired by the success of the creative Kids Design Glass program, Museum of Glass has collaborated with high schools in Pierce County to demonstrate the abilities of young artists through a design competition for students. The contest challenged students to design a three-dimensional environment for a Kids Design Glass creature of their choosing. Three proposals from students at Federal Way High School and Tacoma’s Stadium High School have been selected by the Museum for Glassorama: Environments for Kids Design Glass. The chosen dioramas will be on display with the original Kids Design Glass pieces in the Museum’s Grand Hall, along with reproductions of the proposals that were submitted, but not selected. “Kids Design Glass has always been popular with our visitors,” notes curatorial assistant and Visiting Artist coordinator Katie Phelps. “Glassorama creates a dynamic and accessible new way for visitors to interact with the pieces. It embodies an aspect of the Museum’s mission to engage community members with art through creative experiences.” Glassorama requirements were crafted as an opportunity for students to practice the process of creating and submitting a proposal to a client, which included presenting a project statement, sketches and scale mockup of their diorama to Museum of Glass curatorial staff. The diorama designs

are based on students’ interpretations of the original artist statement that accompanies each Kids Design Glass piece. The exhibit consists of three large Plexiglas boxes that house the dioramas. Each is designed around one of the critters made in previous years for the “Kids Design Glass” project. Federal Way High School students did a grotto environment for a glass creature called “Tis Ausome Landshark Ausomeness.” The spiked cave beneath the creature contains a clamshell with a light-up pearl. A Goth Barbie doll is seated nearby. “Mirror City” – by a group of students from Stadium High School – is a simple, mirrored room with streaks of color that reflect the subtle colors on the sleek, glass dinosaur within. “I Come in Peace” is the busy helm of a space ship created for a glass creature called “Space Wanderer.” Federal Way High School students also designed this diorama. A niche nearby contains binders with many other proposals for diorama scenes. Leafing through the preliminary sketches and ideas of the students is every bit as interesting as the dioramas themselves. The current display runs through Sept. 7.

ROCK AND RALLY FOR THE TROOPS By Glen Casebeer

Who’s ready for a good time on Saturday, Aug. 2 in Fife and to support a fantastic cause while doing so? About 800 local music fans are, according to Brittney Hamilton, the event organizer for Rock & Rally For The Troops, which benefits Operation Ward 57. Hamilton is also the executive director of the charity. The event is in its fourth year of existence and has gotten bigger each time, allowing organizers to raise more money and help more veterans. This year the annual music festival has expanded to include a second stage, giving organizers the opportunity to bring in more bands. They also moved the event from the Tacoma waterfront to Louie G’s in Fife. Hamilton explains, “We have always had a wonderful time on the waterfront and Gwen and her staff at Rock the Dock have been amazing but this year we wanted to go bigger to include multiple stages and we knew if we

expanded we would lose all the parking on the waterfront. We also wanted to make it a more all ages/family-friendly event and we didn’t feel we could accommodate that on the waterfront. Louie Galarza (Louie G’s owner) was generous enough to offer his facility, allowing us to expand and maintain the free parking.� Operation Ward 57 is a small non-profit doing big things. Founded in 2007, it’s supported by volunteer active and retired military, celebrity musicians and through contributions from individuals across the country. The annual Rock & Rally For The Troops event also includes a motorcycle ride that starts at Rock the Dock (535 Dock St.) at 10 a.m. Hamilton expects at least 125 bikers will be on the road and involved with the ride this year. The music portion of the event will start at 2:15 p.m. featuring Righteous Vendetta, True Holland, Lakeview Drive, Amadon, The Adarna, The Mothership, Anti Hero, A Lien Nation and Mom’s Rocket. Tickets are $15 in advance or $20 at the venue. VIP tickets are also available for $50.

Hamilton says her passion comes from meeting these heroes and hearing their stories. She adds, “Realizing that for each of them there are different struggles, different needs, and different obstacles, all of which combine to create their ‘new normal.’ I just want to be able to continue to help them so they never have to need for anything and that they know they are not alone. It’s about educating, motivating and inspiring.� Music has always been a huge part of Hamilton’s life and she says many of our veterans use music to get through long deployments as well as help in their recovery. She continues, “Having this event each year is a way for the community to rally together and show their support of our wounded and their families. To let them know they are not forgotten, that they have a support system, as well as provide opportunities for those recovering from injuries to get out and have fun spending time connecting with their community members. Many in the crowd at the event are veterans, and so it’s very much a brotherhood.�

BLOCK PARTY. Neighbors will gather in the name of crime prevention during national Night Out on Aug. 5 By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

Locals will build community and fight crime with dozens of block parties, barbecues and other festive events scheduled for Aug. 5 in honor of National Night Out. Started in 1984 by the non-profit National Association of Town Watch, National Night Out is recognized on the first Tuesday in August in many parts of the country, though communities in Texas wait until it cools down a bit, in October. NATW estimates that 37.8 million people in 16,000 communities participate in a wide variety of Night Out activities, ranging from parades to porch light vigils. The idea is that getting to know their neighbors and banding together to organize makes citizens less vulnerable. “It’s one night a year where the community gets together to block off their street, have a barbecue – at the very minimum, turn their lights on in the evening,� said Wanda Rochelle, operations program manager for Safe Streets in Tacoma, the main community liaison for the event. “So it’s to be used as a community gathering and crime deterrent.� Normally, locals have to apply for special permits when they want to organize their own parades or block parties; but Safe Streets has secured a blanket permit for groups that register their events with them. They also provide “goody bags� filled with informational brochures, lights,

crayons for kids and other knicknacks collected from Metro Parks, Tacoma Power and other local groups. Rochelle said more than 100 events had been registered through her group this year. Among the larger ones is a South Tacoma concert and block party spearheaded by The Bridge United Methodist Church, on South Puget Sound Avenue between 56th and 57th streets. “When we first started doing them in another part of town, nobody would show. It was impossible to build community,� Pastor Gordy Hitchins recalled. Two years ago “we put a rock band out there and the dunk tank and everything, and it was just an amazing community event. So we did it again last year with three bands and a greater level of participation from other organizations and community groups.� This party will kick off at 4 p.m. with music provided by local favorites Strangely Alright, Sleepy Pilot, Jason Kerstson and Antihero. There will also be a dunk tank and other family friendly activities with the fun continuing through 10 p.m. “It’s a chance for the people in the neighborhood to get to know each other, to come to trust each other and come to a point where they don’t look at each other with suspicion and fear,� Hitchins said. “I think it’s a great opportunity for us to become a community again.� Locals can call Safe Streets at (253) 272-6824 to learn if there is a party in or near their neighborhood.

ARIES (Mar. 21 – Apr. 19) As Mercury moves into Leo, it adds energy to your home, family and domestic life. A conflict could arise that may require a creative approach. Proceed with caution and don’t give into impulsive risk taking. Try to find balance between your work and social life. TAURUS (Apr. 20 - May 20) This is a great week to finish up or start projects at your home, inside or out. Take advantage of the nice weather to accomplish your heart’s desire. You may want to check with your partner first to make sure you are on the same page. Determination is your gift. GEMINI (May 21 – Jun. 20) The best way for you to make progress is to narrow your focus, concentrating on one goal at a time. You have an intense need to push forward and make changes. This may be a great time to seek new employment or a change of residence. CANCER (Jun. 21 – Jul. 22) Previous months may have been financially disappointing. As Mercury joins Jupiter in your financial sector, it may make up for it. Use this opportunity to promote your business or craft and make use of your skills. Revive your personal passions. LEO (Jul. 23 – Aug. 22) Your enthusiasm has reached new heights. Use your gift of self-expression to share your ideas and teach others to do the same. We are here to learn and grow from each other, sometimes being the Master, other times the Student. Embrace your role. VIRGO (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22) The focus this week is on spiritual development. Use this energy to meditate or take a yoga class. Centering yourself and listening within will help reveal your best plan of action for the next few weeks. Keep track of what you are doing and avoid risks.

LIBRA (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22) Your social sector is lighting up! This is one of the best times of the year to connect with others. Keep your social calendar full, without draining your bank account. You may have to make some compromises to get ahead in career or personal matters. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) There will be plenty of opportunities for you to impress the right people. You may wish to hide from the spotlight, seemingly aloof. The universe guides you to embrace your focus on selfpromotion and to explore new paths. Be discreet with your plans until you are ready for action.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) Aim high to get to where you want to be. Your determination to succeed is all to your credit. Opportunities are rolling in. Utilize only those that serve you or your greater purpose. You are now getting attention from all the right people. Ignore those that don’t understand your views. PISCES (Feb. 19 – Mar. 20) The universe is encouraging you to think big. Make the appropriate plans to accomplish your dreams. Lifestyle changes are also in focus. Long-term adjustments in diet, exercise and wellness should be set by daily goals. Good habits take time to set in. Your passion will feed your soul.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) Mix up and mingle with influential people socially and at the work place. Your career sector has lit up, enhancing your success in business. Think big by adding a couple more zeros onto your salary, bonus check or winnings for good measure. Expect what your mind promotes.
