Guard shines in ‘Finest Hours’ Hurdles in film shared on Peninsula BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — While the U.S. Coast Guard’s finest hours will be on the big screen beginning Friday, they are also on display almost every day on the Olympic Peninsula coast. The movie “The Finest Hours,” starring Chris Pine, Casey Affleck and Ben Foster, is based on one of the greatest Coast Guard rescues in the history of the law enforcement and rescue service. The dramatic rescue mission took place in 1956 off the coast of Cape Cod, Mass., during a blizzard in which two tankers, the SS Fort Mercer and SS Pendleton, each broke in half, their crews stranded in the sinking hulls. In violent seas, a crew of four in a 36-foot motor lifeboat from the Chatham, Mass., Lifeboat Station was sent to rescue the crew from the Pendleton while several Coast Guard cutters and aircraft responded to locate the Fort Mercer’s two separated sections and take aboard any survivors.

Regular reality For more than 200 Coast Guardsmen stationed more than 3,000 miles away on three bases in Clallam County, severeweather rescues are business as usual. “The water in the Pacific Northwest can be worse [than the North Atlantic] in its own way,” said Chief David Mosley, spokesman for the Coast Guard in Seattle. The Coast Guard presence that would become Air Station/ Sector Field Office Port Angeles,

Three surfman-qualified Coast Guardsmen at Station Quillayute River — Chief Jason Gale, Petty Officer Jason Steinhoff and Senior Chief Cory Wadley from left — on board a 47-foot motor lifeboat, below. on Ediz Hook, was established in 1862. The air station was commissioned in 1935 and is the oldest continuously operating Coast Guard air station in the U.S., according to the Coast Guard.

Main base The main Port Angeles base is home to MH-65D Dolphin helicopters, the 210-foot USCGC Active, the 110-foot Island-class patrol boat USCGC Cuttyhunk, four 87-foot Marine Protectorclass patrol boats, the USCGC Adelie, USCGC Osprey, USCGC Swordfish and USCGC Wahoo.

Station Neah Bay was established in 1908 and Station Quillayute River was established in 1929, and each has two 47-foot motor lifeboats to respond to maritime emergencies on that wild, sometimes violent coastline.

30 missions yearly The boats from the Quillayute station go on about 30 rescue missions per year, and about five of them are “majors,” which could easily result in loss of life, said Senior Chief Cory Wadley, commanding officer at the Quillayute station. TURN

Change petition Peninsula vets still serving to make presses forward Helping sure others don’t Effort has genesis in fluoride fight BY PAUL GOTTLIEB PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — Fluoridation opponents are pressing forward with a petition to change city government and elect a new City Council despite questions over the petition. The petition would transform Port Angeles from a code city with home-rule powers and a City Council-city manager government to a more narrowly defined second-class city with fewer powers, including none to put forward citizen initiatives and referenda. Would the city continue to

have a council-hired city manager who acts as the city’s CEO? Or would there be an elected mayor with full administrative powers — unlike the role filled by Patrick Downie — along with an elected city attorney, clerk and treasurer, and no city manager? The petition, which needs 467 signatures to go on the ballot — not the 477 that fluoridation opponents had previously said it required — also would bring about the election of an entirely new seven-member City Council if voters approve the resulting ballot measure.

Wider change sought after Oscar reforms THE WIDESPREAD OUTRAGE over two straight years of largely white Oscar nominees coalesced behind three damning, viral words: “OscarsSoWhite.” The hashtag, which activist April Reign is credited with creating, lent social media unity to a tide of frustration that on Friday led to diversity reforms announced by the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences. Like many others, Reign celebrated the announcement — but only for a moment. “Although we are encouraged by today’s news, change must still be made,” said Reign, who still plans to rally viewers in boycotting the Feb. 28 broadcast. “The nominees are still the same as they were a week ago.” The actions announced Friday by academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs following a unanimous vote by the academy’s 51-member Board of Governors were by some measure an uncommonly quick reaction to the crisis that had enveloped the Academy Awards since nominations were announced eight days earlier. But to many of those who

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

As Hollywood continues to be battered by a backlash to lack of the diversity of this year’s Oscar nominees and in the film industry at large, it doesn’t have to look far for inspiration. Taraji P. Henson, for example, won a Golden Globe award Jan. 10 for best performance by an actress in a TV drama series for her role in “Empire.” have lobbied for change, the academy’s announcement was seen as just a beginning: a first step in a growing movement for equal opportunity, on movie sets and award-show stages, in an industry that lags far behind matching the racial, ethnic and gender makeup of its moviegoing public. “I applaud their attempts to do something about it,” said Don Cheadle, who was nominated for best actor in 2005 for his performance in “Hotel Rwanda.” “But, again, this is dealing with the symptom, not starting at the root cause of how we even get to results like this, which has to do with inclusion and access and the ability for people of color, women and minorities to get at entry-level posi-

tions where you can become someone who can greenlight a movie.” To infuse an overwhelming white, male and older academy with more diverse members who might be drawn to more varied nominees, the academy’s Board of Governors voted to require that member voting status (previously a lifetime honor) be reviewed every 10 years; that the board add three new seats to be filled by Boone Isaacs; and that traditional member recruitment be expanded in a global campaign to boost diversity. The academy’s goal is to double the number of women and minorities by 2020, though it hasn’t disclosed its current demographic makeup.

BILL JOHNSON, 55, a brash American who became the first U.S. skier to win an Olympic downhill title, died after a long illness, the U.S. ski team said Friday. Megan Harrod, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Alpine team, said Mr. Johnson died Thursday at an assisted living facility in Gresham, Mr. Johnson in 1984 Ore. Mr. Johnson’s health had been on the decline for several years after a series of strokes. He won the downhill at the 1984 Sarajevo Olympics, the first American to capture gold in Alpine skiing’s marquee event. He was also the first American male to win an Olympic gold in any Alpine event. He became an iconic figure to many Americans by predicting he would win Olympic gold. Mr. Johnson tried to make a comeback ahead of the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics at the age of 40 but crashed in a downhill training run in 2001 at the U.S. championships at The Big Mountain near Whitefish, Mont.

He sustained a traumatic brain injury that erased nearly a decade of memories. He had to learn how to walk, talk and eat again. Mr. Johnson made steady improvement over the years, even returning to the slopes for recreation. But his health deteriorated again because of strokes, and he spent his last years in the assisted living center near Portland, Ore.

A3 Briefly: Nation Bloomberg eyeing run for White House NEW YORK — Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is taking early steps toward launching an independent campaign for president, seeing a potential path to the White House amid the rise of Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders. The billionaire media executive, who served three terms as mayor of New York, is said to be concerned by Trump’s lasting hold on the Bloomberg Republican field and is worried about the impact of Sanders’ campaign on Hillary Clinton’s bid for the Democratic nomination. Bloomberg has retained advisers and plans to conduct a poll after the Feb. 9 New Hampshire primary to assess the state of the race and judge whether there is an opening for him to mount an independent campaign. He has set a March deadline to decide on whether to enter the race, believing that doing so any later would not allow him access to the ballot in all 50 states. A longtime Democrat who became a Republican to run for mayor in 2001 and later switched to being an independent, Bloomberg would strongly consider a bid if the general election looked like it could shape up into a contest between Sanders and Trump or Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, though Bloomberg is not ruling out a bid if Clinton is ahead on the Democratic side. To prepare for a potential run, Bloomberg has also instructed aides to research previous thirdparty runs and is said to be will-

ing to spend up to $1 billion of his own fortune, estimated to be about $37 billion, to finance his campaign.

Forced labor case COLUMBUS, Ohio — The third of four people accused of smuggling teens into the U.S. and keeping them as virtual slave laborers at an Ohio egg farm has pleaded guilty to charges in a case that brought national attention to the exploitation of young immigrants fleeing unrest in Central America. More than a year after federal agents raided a remote, dilapidated trailer park in central Ohio and rescued 10 young Guatemalans, three of the defendants have now taken plea agreements and are awaiting sentencing, which has not been scheduled. The fourth is awaiting trial. The defendants were at the center of what prosecutors said was a scheme to take custody of the victims at the border, then force them to work at the farm and hand over most of their earnings to pay for their passage to the U.S.

BENGHAZI, Libya — Libyan officials say Islamic State militants have attacked one of the country’s major oil terminals, setting storage tanks on fire at the coastal Ras Lanuf facility. State-run National Oil Corporation’s spokesman, Mohammed al-Hariri, and Osama al-Hadairi, the spokesman for the oil facilities’ security unit, say the attack took place early Wednesday. There were no details on the scope of destruction or possible casualties. The Islamic State group affiliate in Libya, which controls the central city of Sirte, has carried out several such attacks and destroyed at least a dozen oil tanks. Attacks on the nearby Sidra oil port completely destroyed 16 out of 19 fuel tanks there, dealing a heavy blow to Libya’s already embattled oil sector.

East Coast is slammed by massive snowstorm BY SETH BORENSTEIN AND JENNIFER PELTZ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEW YORK — A blizzard with hurricane-force winds brought much of the East Coast to a standstill Saturday, dumping as much as 3 feet of snow, stranding tens of thousands of travelers and shutting down the nation’s capital and its largest city. After days of weather warnings, most of the 80 million people in the storm’s path heeded requests to stay home and off the roads, which were largely deserted. After days of weather warnings, most of the 80 million people in the storm’s path heeded

requests to stay home and off the roads, which were largely deserted. Yet at least 18 deaths were blamed on the weather, resulting from car crashes, shoveling snow and hypothermia. And more snow was to come, with dangerous conditions expected to persist until early today, forecasters warned. “This is going to be one of those generational events, where your parents talk about how bad it was,” Ryan Maue, a meteorologist for WeatherBell Analytics, said from Tallahassee, Fla., which also saw some flakes. The system was mammoth, dropping snow from the Gulf Coast to New England. By afternoon, areas near Wash-

ington had surpassed 30 inches, according to the weather service’s running totals. The heaviest unofficial report was in a rural area of West Virginia, not far from Harper’s Ferry, with 40 inches. As the storm picked up, forecasters increased their snow predictions for New York and points north and warned areas nearly as far north as Boston to expect heavy snow. “This is kind of a Top 10 snowstorm” and likely a Top 5 for New York and Washington, said weather service winter storm expert Paul Kocin, who co-wrote a two-volume textbook on blizzards.

ground across Iraq and Syria, but the allies are increasingly also targeting the airwaves, where they now are losing the propaganda war. Carter In Paris last week, Defense Secretary Ash Carter made clear the coalition must get better at projecting its own messages and touting its successes. He has spent much of his time giving speeches lately at doing just that — painting an increasingly rosy picture of victories in Iraq and Syria and describing a constrained Islamic State that is losing momentum. The multipronged effort includes not only talking up military victories in Iraq and Syria but also countering jihadi messaging that can recruit or inspire followers around the world to join the group or launch their own solo attacks in western nations. So far, efforts by the U.S. and others to combat that propaganda campaign have been slow to form, with officials acknowledging that they are losing the communications war. The Associated Press

Poll: Public doubts D.C.’s problem-solving ability BY BILL BARROW AND EMILY SWANSON THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — As the first voting nears in the presidential race, most Americans have little to no confidence in the federal government to confront what they see as the country’s most important priorities, according to a national survey. The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll, conducted in December, found more than 6 in 10 respondents expressed only slight confidence — or none at all — that the federal government can make progress on the problems facing the nation in 2016. Terrorism edged health care as the issue most often mentioned — each by about one-third of those questioned — when people were asked to volunteer the issues they believe Washington should address this election year. The polling suggests an electorate more focused on the economy and domestic affairs than on foreign policy. Two-thirds of respondents included an economic issue on their priority list, and about 4 in 5 named a domestic policy other than the economy. In addition to those who mentioned terrorism, nearly half added another foreign policy matter, and immigration was the next most frequent topic raised. Perhaps most vexing for the dozen or so candidates vying to succeed President Barack Obama, the poll indicates widespread skepticism about the government’s ability to solve problems, with no significant difference in the outlook between Republicans and Democrats.

World: Italians protest in urging gay civil unions

AUTHORITIES SAY THREE inmates who escaped from a maximum-security jail in Southern California cut through half-inch steel bars, got to the roof and rappelled down using a makeshift rope. They escaped Friday at the Orange County Men’s Central Jail in Santa Ana. Sheriff’s Lt. Jeff Hallock said Saturday the inmates had an elaborate plan that may also have involved creating a jail disturbance. It’s unclear if they had outside help. Authorities are hunting for 20-year-old Jonathan Tieu, who’s been charged with a gang-related murder; 43-year-old Bac Duong, charged with attempted murder, and 37-year-old Hossein Nayeri, who’s charged with the 2012 kidnapping of a marijuana dispensary owner.

AUTHORITIES HAVE FOUND one human skull and eight containers with potentially more at a Los Angeles-area shop that sells spiritual items. Los Angeles County sheriff’s Capt. Steve Katz said deputies responded to the Compton business Friday after a woman complained of animal cruelty. When investigators arrived, Katz said they found a skull inside a pot. He said the coroner’s office collected the skull and eight other pots that may also contain skulls. Katz said there’s no evidence of a homicide and that it appears the skull may have been purchased from a legal source and was being used for a religious ceremony.

EGYPTIAN AUTHORITIES HAVE intensified a crackdown on dissent ahead of next week’s anniversary of the country’s 2011 Arab Spring uprising, with police raiding apartments seeking signs of plans for organized protests and checking people’s social media accounts. Security forces questioned residents and searched more than 5,000 homes in central Cairo as a “precautionary measure” over the past 10 days, aiming to ensure Egyptians do not take to the streets, as they have so many times in recent years, officials said Thursday. Surveillance and intelligence was gathered over months, focusing on young, pro-democracy activists inside and outside the country.

TENS OF THOUSANDS of people are demonstrating in nearly 100 cities across Italy to urge the government to grant gay and lesbian couples civil unions and recognize their families. Mirco Pierro, 39, rallied Saturday in Rome with his partner and twin infants, saying he wanted “to defend the rights of our children, not just our rights.” Pierro and his partner were married in Los Angeles, but their union is not recognized in Italy, and only one has parental rights. Italy lags behind many of its European neighbors in conferring such rights due to strong opposition in the predominantly Roman Catholic nation.

Settlement in Haggen, Albertsons lawsuit THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BELLINGHAM — Albertsons will pay $5.75 million to settle a lawsuit that sought up to $1 billion in damages related to the sale of stores to Haggen, currently involved in bankruptcy proceedings. The Bellingham Herald reported that Haggen said in the lawsuit that Albertsons systemically eliminated competition in more than 130 local grocery markets across five states. Albertsons released a statement saying the settlement avoids costly litigation and that the company still believes the lawsuit’s assertions lacked merit. Spokesman Brian Dowling said the company’s $41 million unpaid inventory lawsuit against Haggen would be dropped if the settlement agreement is approved by the bankruptcy court. Haggen officials had no comment. An auction of 33 stores was set for Feb. 5. The only Haggen store on the North Olympic Peninsula, the one in Port Angeles, was set to be part of the auction. The bankruptcy filing followed Haggen’s struggle to convert 146 stores purchased from Albertsons and Safeway.

PA department: Maneuver has helped in pursuits

OLYMPIA — Members of a commercial fishing family have settled a lawsuit over their constitutional rights with the state Department of Fish and Wildlife. KUOW reported that the Tarabochias family settled for $130,000. The agency formally acknowledged Friday that it violated the rights of two family members who commercially fished the Columbia River. The lawsuit stems from a March 2007 traffic stop in southwest Washington in which Fish and Wildlife officers stopped four members of the Tarabochia family, wanting to inspect their load of salmon. The family refused to comply and filed a federal lawsuit in 2010 challenging the constitutionality of the stop, saying the agency had no right to pull them over for a check without reason to believe a crime had occurred. They lost in U.S. District Court but successfully appealed to the 9th Circuit. Peninsula Daily News and The Associated Press

PORT ANGELES — Port Angeles police are crediting emergency vehicle operations training for bringing a recent pursuit to a successful end. Three Port Angeles residents were arrested Thursday evening after a fiveblock pursuit. Arrested were Justin DeFrang, 35; Joshua L. Alumbaugh, 23; and Patricia Rose Stigall, 24. DeFrang and Stigall were booked into the Clallam County jail, while Alumbaugh was cited and released. The incident began at about 4:15 p.m., police said, when officers were dispatched to an in-progress theft reported at a store in the 600 block of East First Street. While responding to the call, officers were told a customer had purchased some items, concealed others and left the store. He was reported to be in a black Chevrolet sport utility vehicle. Officer Andrew Heuett arrived and was directed by a store employee to the

counties. Detective David Arand and Cpl. Kevin Miller are certified emergency vehicle operator course instructors and are part of the interagency training cadre. A portion of this training program involves initial training and regular in-service training in the PIT maneuver. The Port Angeles department has used the PIT maneuver to terminate pursuits on four occasions since fall 2014. In October of that year at the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference in Orlando, Fla., the department received the “Safer Way” award from the PursuitSAFETY organization in recognition for agency training and best practices in the area of police pursuits.

Cellphone data linked to arrest in suspected arson BY CHRIS MCDANIEL PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

PORT ANGELES — Cellphone analytics helped the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office locate and arrest a Sedro-Woolley man suspected of starting a New Year’s Day fire that significantly damaged a Beaverarea residence at 201821 U.S. Highway 101. Marshall Jay Lewis, 36, was arrested Friday morning at his home in SedroWoolley by Clallam County sheriff’s detectives assisted by the Sedro-Woolley Police Department. Lewis was transported back to Clallam County and booked into the county jail. He faces possible charges including arson, residential

burglary, voyeurism and telephone harassment. He is being held without bail. Sheriff’s detectives said they developed probable cause for Lewis’ arrest after serving search warrants for cellphone data and other evidence that further led them to Lewis. Brian King, chief criminal deputy with the Sheriff’s Office, said information gleaned from local cell towers indicated Lewis was in the vicinity of the Beaverarea home at the time of the arson. “That was one thing we learned from his cell records,” King said. “He was in the area. Records also show that he traveled from Skagit

County and returned to Skagit County based upon the towers.” Lewis currently is registered as a Level 1 sex offender in Skagit County. Lewis’ registration requirement comes from a 2010 rape conviction in Snohomish County Superior Court. The suspected arson case is being forwarded to the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office for a formal charging decision.

Economic development corp. awards ‘Olympic leaders’

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

8 others receive recognition of their excellence BY ROB OLLIKAINEN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

SEQUIM — Teamwork, vision and civic engagement were recurring themes at the Clallam County Economic Development Corp.’s annual membership meeting Friday. Jamestown S’Klallam Tribal Chairman Ron Allen received the organization’s Olympic Leader Award for a company and Olympic Medical Center CEO Eric Lewis accepted the same award for an individual. Eight others received 2015 Awards of Excellence from the private nonprofit that helps businesses in the county. The dinner and subsequent program drew about 100 attendees. “I’m a believer in the EDC,” Allen said as he accepted the annual award on behalf of the tribe. “I think the EDC is going in the right direction. We have a lot of work to do.” Allen pointed to a historical photograph of a tribal member holding a canoe paddle that graces a wall at The Cedars at Dungeness, one of the tribe’s successful business ventures. “We are all in the same canoe,” Allen said. “Let’s pull together in the same direction.” Lewis said he was humbled to receive the Olympic Leader Award, which recognizes contributions to economic development. He credited the 1,200 employees of OMC and its seven-member board. “I think the EDC is incredibly important for our community,” said Lewis, who also serves on the EDC board. “If we don’t all work together, we’re not going to be successful.” OMC, which is expanding its Port Angeles campus, is working to maintain and grow its services, recruit and retain a quality workforce, and stay locally owned and controlled, Lewis said. “We’re trying to keep the decisions made in Clallam County by publicly elected officials in public,” Lewis said. “We’re all in in Clallam County.” The nearly two-hour program was emceed by EDC Executive Director Bill Greenwood and board Chairman Randy Johnson. “We as a county only work well when we all work together,” Johnson said. “It takes all of us coming together working on an issue with unanimity, and then amazing

things happen.” Added Greenwood: “Sequim, Port Angeles and Forks have to all work together, and all the companies here have to work together.” “I think we’re well on our way to doing that,” Greenwood said. “Everybody wants to work together, and so we’ve just got to try a little harder to pull along some of those people who haven’t gotten the message yet.” Business leaders who accepted 2015 Awards of Excellence on behalf of their companies were Bill Hermann of Hermann Brothers Logging and Construction of Port Angeles, Toni Jensen of Hurricane Ridge Veterinary Hospital of Sequim, Michael McQuay of Kokopelli Grill of Port Angeles, Bill Littlejohn of Sherwood Assisted Living of Sequim, Ryan Gedlund of Swain’s General Store of Port Angeles and Dan Wilder Jr. of Wilder Auto of Port Angeles. Individuals who received Awards of Excellence were Jerry Nichols of Port Angeles for his support of the EDC and Nathan West, Port Angeles community and economic development director, for his efforts in building city infrastructure and working with the EDC. Each award winner gave a synopsis of what he or she does and his or her role with the organization. Many credited Greenwood for his efforts in revitalizing the EDC since he

was hired in March 2014. West told the audience that 2015 was a banner year for private-sector investment. “We had 24 new businesses open their doors in Port Angeles,” West said. “We’re moving in the right direction.” The Port Angeles City Council hired 12 local contractors to complete $8 million worth of projects, West said. “City Council and city government, as well as Clallam County government, love to award those bids to local entities,” West said. Every speaker at the event received a copy of the book Team of Teams by Gen. Stanley McChrystal, which examines 21st-century military and business practices. “We have to start pulling everybody in our organizations out of their silos and into a team environment where they’re sharing information, trusting one another and getting the job done,” Greenwood said. “What [the book] is really about is working together in the end as a team of teams.” Before the awards were presented, Greenwood and Johnson welcomed new business and political leaders to the EDC. They also recognized those who had retired or moved on to other pursuits. First Federal President and CEO Larry Hueth and former Clallam County Commissioner Jim McEn-

Olympic Peninsula News Group Publisher Terry Ward provided the opening remarks, stressing a need to find common ground. “What I like about gatherings like this is tonight, you’re not a Democrat or a Republican,” Ward said. “You’re not pro-fluoride or anti-fluoride. You’re procommunity.” Ward was referring to the Port Angeles City Council debate over municipal water fluoridation. “Everybody in this room has a common interest, and that is bettering the community as a whole,” Ward said. State Rep. Steve Tharinger ended the program by saying the EDC has been “doing good work” for local businesses. “I think the people that have been honored tonight have that vision,” Tharinger said. “They have that foot in reality to make the vision work.”

Vets: ‘Any service, anywhere’ CONTINUED FROM A1 “We do walk-ins,” Joseph said, “and we help any vet from any service, anywhere.” He and fellow counselor Mark Anderson work with people who served in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan to help them determine which benefits to seek. “If you don’t have someone to help, you can fall through the cracks,” said Joseph, a Navy corpsman from 1967 to 1970.

Drivers A few blocks away at the Port Angeles Veterans Center, 216 S. Francis St., another kind of volunteering goes on — very early in the day. Trained drivers, such as Mike Kelly and Glenn Cutler, get there shortly before 5 a.m. to pick up passengers for a trip to the Seattle Veterans Hospital. These are vets who have appointments starting at 8 a.m., so their volunteer drivers make sure they’re at the Bainbridge Island ferry dock by 6:40, ready to catch the 7:05 a.m. boat. These drivers, coordinated by Disabled American Veterans office volunteer Venay Money, can transport as many as seven passengers in the DAV van. They typically return home, after all of the appoint-

Where to turn FOR INFORMATION ABOUT the Disabled American Veterans vans traveling from the North Olympic Peninsula to the Seattle Veterans Hospital — or to find out about becoming a volunteer driver — phone Venay Money in Clallam County at 360457-5251 or Bud Clark in Jefferson County at 360301-4206. For help with U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs benefits applications, contact John Joseph in Port Angeles at 360-460-6707 or Gary Lane with the American Legion in Port Townsend at 360-7316398. Joseph and fellow volunteers assist vets and widowed spouses with VA benefits forms at the Serenity House housing resources office, 520 E. First St., Port Angeles, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesdays. Walk-ins are welcome. Joseph also offers this assistance at the Quilcene Community Center once a month, typically on the third Wednesday. Phone him for details. Peninsula Daily News ments have been kept, in the late afternoon. “It kills me for a day or two, but that’s OK,” said Cutler, who began volunteering after retirement from his post as Port Angeles’ director of public works. Before that, Cutler served some 30 years in the Navy. He’s well-acquainted with bureaucratic systems, so he also volunteers with Joseph and Anderson on Wednesdays, working through that maze of VA benefit forms. Cutler, Kelly and their co-volunteers find this work pays well — not in dollars,

but in basic human interaction. “This is the thing that makes my week,” said Kelly, who last Friday was scheduled to drive a 94-year-old World War II vet to his Seattle appointment. “It’s a slice of life,” he said, in which he gets to spend time with people who have seen and done plenty. Kelly usually gathers his riders at the Veterans Center, but if need be, he’ll go to Sequim — even Kingston on one occasion. A retired schoolteacher who served in the Marines in Vietnam, Kelly also

been raised sufficiently to cause the effort to slow down, Steel said. “We may have to abandon the petition and circulate another petition,” he said. “We think that’s a small possibility at this point, and it’s not worth slowing down our process.” Association of Washington Cities spokeswoman Alicia Seegers Martinelli referred inquiries about second-class cities to the MRSC. “According to the chapter that deals with second-class governments, there is no reference to city manager,” Levan said. “In a second-class-city plan, the mayor is separately elected. “You could have a city administrator, not a city manager. “The word ‘shall’ in a statute generally means it’s not discretionary. “It’s a mandate that it has to be done that way.” But he also said the actual process for changing from a code city to a second-class city may leave open the possibility of retaining a city manager. “That seems to be an open legal question on whether or not that’s allowable,” Levan said. And state Auditor’s Office spokesman David Ammons said the law appears to be unclear on whether a city

More are needed, said Money, because volunteers occasionally are sick or go on vacation. These drivers “are really appreciated,” she said, “because it’s a lot of responsibility” for not a lot of pay. “You get a $6 voucher for lunch,” Cutler quipped. Gary Lane, an Army veteran of the Vietnam War, volunteers because, well, he loves it. A service officer at the American Legion in Port Townsend, he’s on call to help vets with their VA benefit forms. Lane can be reached at 360-731-6398. “There’s a lot of help out there,” he said, adding that he also helps veterans via Jefferson County’s emergency relief fund, a source of assistance with utility bills and groceries. To do well in this volunteer gig, “you have to have a love for your fellow veteran,” said Money, a longtime worker with local vet groups. “If you’re not a vet,” she added, “you’ve got to appreciate them.”

The three Clallam County commissioners will hold a public hearing on the restoration of an 8.4 percent sales tax Tuesday. The hearing will begin shortly after 10:30 a.m. in the commissioners’ boardroom (160) at the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles. Commissioners have already notified the state Department of Revenue that the 0.2 percent tax holiday will sunset April 1. The hearing is for a proposed ordinance that would make the action official. Commissioners will hold their normal business meeting at 10 a.m. Tuesday. Agenda items include: ■ An invitation for bids due March 1 for the Carlsborg sewer project. ■ An agreement with the Olympic Peninsula Visitor Bureau for tourism services. ■ A contract amendment with the Clallam County Prosecutors’ Association removing chief criminal and chief civil deputy positions from the bargaining unit while conferring third-party beneficiary rights. ■ An agreement with Kitsap, Jefferson and Mason counties and the Kitsap Public Health Division for the Hood Canal regional septic loan program. ■ An agreement to purchase 0.02 acres of land for the Lower Elwha Road reconstruction project. ■ An agreement with West End Outreach Services for behavioral health services to low-income individuals or families and juveniles involved in the justice system. ■ An agreement with First Step Family Support Center for the Parents as Teachers Program. ■ A resolution re-establishing and modifying revolving, petty cash and change funds for the Health and Human Services Department. ■ A resolution appointing a member to the Solid Waste Advisory Committee. ■ A resolution establishing a position in support of proposed Crescent School District levies. ■ A resolution adopting a $17,000 supplemental budget appropriation for Health and Human Services, Environmental Health. ■ A resolution adopting debatable budget emergencies for the Sheriff’s Office.

Ammons said the final petition and its signatures will be reviewed by Auditor Shoona Riggs, who was unavailable for comment late Friday. Ammons said the process calls for her to consult with Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney Mark Nichols, as her legal adviser, on the petition’s legality. “The adviser would offer her legal advice on whether it should . . . be on the ballot,” Ammons said. McKeen and City Attorney Bill Bloor did not return calls for comment Friday. Eight among the state’s 281 cities are classified as second class, including Port Orchard. “If that’s an advantage or not depends on your perspective,” Levan said. “A code city does have much broader powers than a second-class city.” Mayor Rob Putaansuu said Friday that Port Orchard residents seem happy with the way things are. A ballot measure to change to a code city failed a few years ago. “The bigger issue was, the community wants a strong mayor,” Putaansuu said.

Pictured in a still from the upcoming film “The Finest Hours” are, from left, Ervin Maske (John Magaro), Andy Fitzgerald (Kyle Gallner), Richard Livesey (Ben Foster) and Bernie Webber (Chris Pine). That is no longer true, said Wadley, who was at one time stationed at the Chatham Lifeboat Station while Webber was still alive and lived in the area. “With every mishap, the Coast Guard learns something about itself,” Wadley said. He noted that if the Coast Guard members get themselves killed, they can’t get to the next rescue.

Disaster strikes Despite the many safety measures put in place to keep Coast Guardsmen alive, the job is still dangerous. In 1997, three members of the Quillayute River station did not come back. At 2:26 a.m. Feb. 12, 1997, four Guardsmen took the 44-foot motor lifeboat 44363 to respond to a report of a sailboat that lost its mast in heavy sea conditions off the Quillayute River bar. The tough motor lifeboat, designed to bob up from under huge waves and right itself in the most severe conditions, capsized three times, once stern over bow, and was battered

against the rocks. It took the lives of Petty Officer David A. Bosley, Petty Officer Matthew Schlimme and Seaman Clinton Miniken. The lone survivor, Seaman Apprentice Ben Wingo, stuck it out through the boat’s violent ride, stepped off in waist-deep water and set off a flare to signal for a rescue. A memorial to the lost crew members was built in La Push. On Feb. 12 each year, the crew assigned to the station holds a memorial ceremony and lays a wreath into the water from a 47-foot motor lifeboat in honor of the three crew members who lost their lives. The Coast Guard also is currently in the process of moving a set of lights set up on nearby James Island to illuminate the bar at night to light up more of the bar and less of the harbor. Despite the many lessons learned in the past, there were still new lessons to learn from the 1997 disaster, Wadley said. When a wave hits a motor lifeboat and they are spun about or otherwise knocked around and become

disoriented, crews are specifically trained so their first reaction is to look for the next wave so they can complete their mission.

Historic rescues

them and directed a Canadian Coast Guard cutter to their location. One crew member died of exposure before their rescuers arrived. In April 1943, the Lamut, a Soviet freighter, ran aground during a storm on Teahwhit Head, south of La Push. Station Quillayute River sent their crews by both land and sea, but the heavy surf prevented the rescue boat from reaching the stricken ship. Coast Guardsmen hiked through miles of forest, then climbed partway down a cliff adjacent to the ship and worked to establish a line from the cliff to the ship. All but one member of the crew, who was killed soon after the ship grounded, crossed the line hand over hand, and an injured crew member made the crossing in a litter. Soon after the crew was rescued, waves lifted the ship from its grounding and smashed it into the rocks of a nearby cove.

One wall of the Station Quillayute River’s common room is dedicated to photos of past rescues and a life ring from the Temple Bar, one of their most successful rescues. According to historical accounts, the Temple Bar wrecked in April 1939, and the 36 members of the crew were saved by Coast Guard crew members who responded to the sinking ship and towed lifeboats full of survivors to safety. In June 1942, the Coast Trader was torpedoed by a Japanese submarine 35 miles southwest of Cape Flattery. All 56 members of the crew escaped into a lifeboat and several rafts, which were separated in heavy seas.

They call him “Elusive,” at least on the hiking trails. And that’s pretty much where Dave Roberts spends his time these days, crisscrossing the country by foot, by bike, even by kayak. Roberts, a retired teacher and software engineer, is on a mission to navigate the United States powered only by his two legs and two arms. Hotels and lodges are out of the question; he camps out at night and lugs 25 pounds of equipment — including his tent, sleeping bag and food — on his back. And oh yes: Did we mention he is 72 years old? “I expect to keep doing it until I get tired of it,” said Roberts, who is currently on a 3,000mile “ramble” across Texas, weaving through at least 40 national parks and averaging about 23 miles a day. Some people retire to golf courses. Others

Twenty-five percent of the guests who travel with Mountain Travel Sobek, for example, are between 55 and 64; 21 percent are over 65. The oldest is 88, according to Kevin Callaghan, the adventure firm’s president. Not all of them engage in strenuous activity but even the least demanding trips typically involve a fair amount of walking or modest hiking. About 20 percent of REI Adventures’ business comes from customers over 60; most of Nomadic Expedition’s clients are between 60 and 65, and about 65 percent are female. Twenty-seven percent of Backroads’ walking and hiking guests come from this age group. Christina Shrewsbury, 68, a musician in East Amherst, N.Y., and her husband, Ron, a retired analytical chemist, have taken six trips with POMG Bike Tours, a cycling outfit in Richmond, Vt. “We’ve biked up to 100 miles a day,” Shrewsbury said. “It’s very important to have goals and a plan.

But as demand from severely obese patients surges, nursing home administrators said they cannot afford to care for them, because Medicaid, which covers more than 60 percent of all nursing home residents, does not reimburse them for the specialized equipment required: motorized lifts; larger wheelchairs, bedside commodes and shower chairs; and longer intramuscular needles and blood pressure cuffs.

Dave Roberts, who is on a 3,000-mile â&#x20AC;&#x153;rambleâ&#x20AC;? across Texas, checks his map near the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s border. in New Hampshire; and backpacked the Wonderland Trail around Mount Rainier in Washington state with Fitpacking, an adventure travel company. Roberts has always been adventurous; he was a Peace Corps volunteer in Liberia in the 1970s. But then life took over. He married, raised a daughter and divorced in the 1980s. In the early â&#x20AC;&#x2122;90s, he said, he dreamed that St. Peter confronted him at the Pearly Gates, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you take advantage of what they had to offer down there?â&#x20AC;? he remembers being asked. The question percolated in his mind for years. In 2002, he quit his job and rejoined the Peace Corps. When he returned home, he bought a boat and sailed across the North Atlantic. In 2014, he and his daughter, Ivy, hiked all 2,190 miles of the Appalachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. He then cycled the 3,000

miles to Key West, Fla., before heading to the 1,300mile Florida Trail. From there, he rode from Pensacola to Minnesota, some 1,500 miles.

Chronicles adventures He sold his bike, picked up a kayak and paddled the Mississippi River to New Orleans. He chronicles his expeditions at DavidOwen Roberts.com, and has selfpublished a few books. Roberts now plans to hike the Pacific Crest and Continental Divide trails, which, along with the Appalachian Trail, are considered Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hiking Triple Crown. There have been some mishaps along the way. His kayak was stolen, and it cost $1,500 to replace. Another time, when he washed in a Florida pond, he found it was infested with mites, causing unbearable itching. Greg Ferris, 67, a retired economist and friend from

the Peace Corps days, joined Roberts last November on a cycling trip from Annapolis, Md., to Chapel Hill, N.C., riding about 40 miles a day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was brutal,â&#x20AC;? recalled Ferris, who persuaded Roberts to sleep in hotels a few nights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One evening I was probably lamenting our luck with the rain and midteen temps when Dave responded with, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;If nothing goes wrong, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not an adventure.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I thought that notion cut right to the chase.â&#x20AC;? Richard Sojourner would agree. Last May, Sojourner (â&#x20AC;&#x153;With that kind of last name, this is what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m supposed to be doing.â&#x20AC;?) joined Sanders for his record-making trip on the Mississippi. But 15 days shy of the finish, Sojourner, 71, a former police officer who had an artery bypass operation in 2004, got heat exhaustion and aborted his mission. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, Lord, it burst my bubble for sure,â&#x20AC;? said Sojourner, who did a doover in October and completed the leg of the trip he missed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a big letdown.â&#x20AC;? But he is philosophical. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re issuing a challenge to old people,â&#x20AC;? Sojourner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They may think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re crazy. Both of us have full white beards. You see these two old bearded folks and you wonder, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What in the world are they doing on that river?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whether I set a record or not â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter,â&#x20AC;? he added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more for my grandkids: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Look at what Paw-Paw did.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;?

severely obese patient who was denied admission to a nursing home filed a discrimination complaint through the federal Office for Civil Rights. To resolve the issue, the nursing home, the GlenShire Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Illinois, admitted the patient and provided an extra-wide dialysis chair. The reluctance to accept hospital referrals, especially when physical therapy or wound care is needed, comes down to practical matters: How many staff members will it take to turn the patient? Where is the wound? How long will physical therapy take? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We ask them, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What is the barrier?,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;? said Akofa Bonsi-Wallace, the former director of discharge planning at the University of Alabama at Birmingham hospital, who often reached out to nursing homes in Georgia, Florida and Tennessee. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Most of the time itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s staffing.

At the Generations of Red Bay facility, nurses reposition obese residents like Chism, who are unable to move on their own, every few hours to avoid dangerous pressure ulcers. Daily personal needs require monumental coordination.

Air bag death WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A Ford pickup driver killed last month in South Carolina is the 9th person to die in the U.S. and the 10th worldwide because of defective Takata air bag inflators that explode, firing off shrapnel-like shards, government safety officials said Friday, as they announced a new expansion of the largest auto safety recall in history. Based on the South Carolina accident and tests of a different kind of Takata inflator, an estimated 5 million additional vehicles with potentially defective air bags are being recalled, but that number could change because there may be some overlap with previous recalls, said Gordon Trowbridge, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration spokesman. The South Carolina crash occurred in late December when the driver of a 2006 Ford Ranger swerved to avoid an obstacle in the road, ran off the side and struck another obstacle, Trowbridge said. The safety administration found out about the accident two weeks ago, from an attorney for the victimâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family, he said. Confirmation that the death was due to an exploding air bag inflator was made Friday morning.

“If an 18-yearold can die for their country in the military, why can’t they buy cigarettes also? You can vote at 18, too. I know lots of people think 21 is better, but it looks like a double standard to me.”

“Honestly, I don’t really know. I don’t smoke. But it sounds like a good idea. Maybe some young people will smoke less, and that’s a good thing.”

“No. The 18-or-older laws aren’t effective because everyone has their first cigarette by high school. I don’t think you would gain anything by raising the age. You’ll still have the same number of smokers.”

I don’t think it would make much of a difference. Most 18-year-olds will be out of the house, and they’ll be able to get cigarettes anyway. It won’t make much of a difference.”

Advertising coordinator Sequim

“I doubt it would be a good deterrent for people [age] 18 to 21. The trouble of enforcing that law might not be worth the effort, and people who want to smoke will smoke.”

“Actually, that sounds like a good idea. I’m against smoking, period. If we can keep young kids from buying them, it would stop them. But some will smoke no matter what. It’s a good start, I feel.”

“Good idea. Tobacco is a horrible thing. I’m speaking as an ex-smoker on this. I quit years ago at age 45. It’s really bad for you, so I feel this is a good idea to raise the age.”

“I’m OK with that. Maybe it would deter someone from smoking, hopefully. I know that many kids still try to smoke long before they reach 21.”

For fluoridation Ronald Reagan once said, “The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they’re ignorant; it’s just that they know so much that isn’t so.” And so it is here in Port Angeles. A case in point is the fluoride furor, whereby certain people “know” that the City Council should have blindly followed an illadvised, nonbinding and unscientific survey and are therefore outraged because certain members disregarded this survey when casting their votes. These people “know” that this is a democracy and, therefore, the weight of citizens’ opinions should prevail. They “know” that any measure should be decided

by a vote of the people if they so desire. OK, people, here’s a news flash: We are not a democracy, wherein an organized group can make decisions binding on the whole group. Instead, we are a republic, whereby the citizens elect people to represent them and to make decisions on their behalf. And that’s what happened with the case of fluoride. Council members were directed to make a judgment as to whether the fluoride treatments were to continue, whereupon they conducted exhaustive study and research and rendered a decision. As we know, this decision went against the fluoride fighters, who now have their knickers in a twist, but hey, too bad. The system worked as designed. But, for those who like unscientific surveys, I took one of my own. It appears that four out of seven City Council members make sound decisions. Dick Pilling, Port Angeles

to join the new facility committee to review Sequim schools. In college, I majored in interior design and co-own a furniture store, and this was right up my alley. We toured and reviewed the district’s schools, the playfields and support buildings. We met in an open room around large tables with plenty of space for groups and collaboration, and we developed a comprehensive list for the district. My fiscal responsibilities as a business operator and nonprofit work experience had me quickly wanting to know how much these improvements would cost. Cost is one factor in my decision-making, and value is the other. In this case, we aren’t just buying a new school; we are defining the outcome of our children’s future. I want boundless futures for my school-age boys and the youths in our community. We need to educate our students in learning spaces that inspire, encourage and compel them to become engineers, developers and creators who willingly participate in the learning process.

‘Dictator Four’ The “Dictator Four” — council members Dan Gase, Cherie Kidd, Brad Collins and Patrick Downie — struck again Jan. 19, denying the will of the people, the advice of their own staff and pretending the public was threatening with changing the organization of the city. So, citizens of Port Angeles, a new petition is available for you to sign that will change the formation of the Port Angeles City Council. Port Orchard has this form of government, and it is fine. What the mayor kept saying was that the public was threatening them. He needs to read Stephen Covey’s Seven Habits of Highly Successful People. Habit 4 is “think winwin.” The city staff gave five suggestions, and No. 5 was a real win-win: stop fluoridation and have an ad-hoc committee research alternatives. The public was not threatening with anything except natural and logical consequences to a City Council that disrespects the will of the people. Please sign a petition. Rose Marschall, Port Angeles

They need an environment that invokes critical thinking, problem-solving and communication, and engages in teamwork — a school for 21st-century learning. They need flexible spaces to allow for collaboration and small-group interactions, something that mirrors the workplace. Sequim’s aging high school and crowded elementary schools aren’t able to provide that. The district’s bond and improving the learning environment is a vital step to improving education in our community and building bright futures for our graduates. Janet Gray, Sequim

No on bond Once again, another expensive special election for a Sequim School District School bond. This fourth time, the cost is $54 million. Add the $20 million in interest over 20 years for a total cost of $84 million. This past November, the cost for the same bond was $49 million. How does the price increase by $5 million in three months? Poor planning? What was the median

home value in Sequim 20 years ago? If my property value increases at the same rate for the next 20 years, my payment for this bond will be taking a much larger percentage of my fixed income as the years go by. I cannot afford it. The grammar, middle and high schools that I attended were the same ones my parents went to, my nieces and nephew used, and now a fourth generation is still receiving their educations at these same schools. They have gotten by with renovations to existing structures. The number of students in that school district has gone both up and down over the years, just like the Sequim School District. I urge you to vote no on this school bond. We can’t afford it. If this bond is defeated like the previous three attempts, I guess I’ll have to vote no again around June on the next expensive special election. Bill Walsh, Sequim

For school bond Please vote for the Sequim School District bond in the upcoming election. Consider this: If your roof leaks, you can a) ignore the problem, b) add temporary patches year after year or c) replace the roof. Sensible people never choose Option A but will sometimes select the penny-wise, pound-foolish Option B. Temporary patching entails repeated costs, year after year. Eventually, the roof will have to be replaced anyway, but at a greater cost than if it had been replaced initially. Option C is generally the wise choice because it is the least costly and increases property value. The Sequim School District has a similar problem: aging, deteriorating, overcrowded and inadequately secured buildings.

The problem is real. I have seen these facilities first-hand (see www. sequimschools.wednet.edu for details). The wise, cost-effective solution is to undertake the required construction as soon as possible. This can happen if the voters in the upcoming February election choose to pass the school bond. The bond issue was only 54 votes short of the required 60 percent supermajority in last November’s election — in ordinary elections a landslide victory. But in bond issues, voters of the penny-wise and pound-foolish, patch-andpatch-again mindset have half again more voting power than those favoring the wiser, long-term solution. Please vote for the bond issue. And please recognize and take seriously that in order to pass the bond, we need to turn out three voters for every two of the penny-wise, pound-foolish persuasion. Quite literally, every single vote matters. Don’t even consider not voting. Please. Aaron Barnes, Sequim

Bond reaction I am perplexed why several large landowners in the county have suddenly allowed signs supporting the vote against the school bond to be erected on their properties. I assume that they hope to eventually sell their land for a profit. So who will still be around to buy it? If we don’t maintain a quality learning environment for our children, can we expect to continue attracting newcomers to our area? And while Sequim has mostly retirement-age residents who do not have school-age children, who fills most of the service and health care jobs in this retirement town? TURN

Not just Manning vs. Brady

Riders win at buzzer Flores’ shot gives PA upset win BY MICHAEL CARMAN

BY ARNIE STAPLETON

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DENVER — Tom Brady and Peyton Manning still earn top billing in today’s AFC championship between the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos. It’s just that ALSO . . . their 17th meeting ■ Less hype no longer features but still a pair of icons in intrigue in their considerable NFC title prime. While Brady game/B3 remains as good as ever, Manning is clearly in his twilight. Worn down, he now relies as much on guile and grit. His left foot damaged, his right arm diminished, his shoulders no longer haul the hopes of a franchise and its fans. Manning’s mind is now his most dangerous asset as he tries to reach Super Bowl 50 two months shy of 40. “Peyton’s mind has always been at the forefront of this game. The difference in these two is Tom can threaten you down the field, whereas Father Time has taken that away from Peyton, that’s all,” Joe Theismann said. “That’s the difference in these two guys.” That, and Brady has never won a playoff game in Denver. Get this, though: Brady threw for three TD passes in Denver this season. Manning? Only one. Brady led the league with three dozen touchdown throws and he passed for 4,770 yards despite seeing his receivers and running backs limp to the sideline seemingly as often as they spiked the ball in the end zone. Manning threw just nine TD passes and 17 interceptions before missing seven starts with a torn plantar fascia near his left heel. His successful cameo against the Chargers secured the AFC’s No. 1 seed, and he was both methodical and mistake-free in Denver’s 23-17 win over Pittsburgh last week. Brady and the Patriots tumbled through December after seeing their dreams of an unbeaten season end in the snow when C.J. Anderson’s 48-yard run gave the Broncos a 30-24 overtime win on Nov. 29. But they looked championship caliber again in their 27-20 win last week over Kansas City. While so much attention will be paid to Brady and Manning, this game could pivot on several other factors: ■ Gronk’s Wonks: Rob Gronkowski issued a good-natured but naughty retort on Twitter to Chris Harris Jr.’s tip that the only way to bring down the 6-foot-6, 265pound tight end was to take out his knees. T.J. Ward said he’ll go high or low, whatever it takes. Von Miller said, “I don’t think it’s ever been taught before how to tackle a guy who is 6-8, 300 pounds. It’s never really been broken down. The thing that we have to do well is just get him on the ground.” ■ Dangerfield defense: Denver led the league in several defensive categories: sacks, total yards, passing yards — and gripes about not getting its due as one of the best defenses ever. But linebacker Brandon Marshall said the Broncos realize that to be considered elite like the ‘85 Bears or ‘00 Ravens, they’ll have to do what those teams did: win it all. Sending Brady to his seventh loss in nine trips to Denver would give them that chance. ■ Game grinders: Two years ago when these teams met in the AFC championship in Denver, the Broncos featured the league’s No. 1 offense, a record-breaking bunch that lit up scoreboards aplenty. This time, they sport the league’s No. 1 defense. Accordingly, the Broncos’ formula has been to minimize mistakes on offense and keep things close until their play-making defenders come through.

Port Angeles’ Katyn Flores drives against Black Hills’ Rachel LeBelle. Flores went on to make the game-winning basket later in the game.

PORT ANGELES — Maddie Boe’s old-school bounce pass through the lane found a wideopen Katyn Flores for a buzzerbeating, game-winning layup, lifting the Port Angeles girls to a 38-36 upset of sixth-ranked Black Hills. “I knew there was eight seconds left, so I had to go as fast as I could down court,” Boe said of Friday’s final moments. “Then I got stuck on the sideline, and coach always says don’t dribble down the sideline because it’s a bad move, so I pulled it back, went to the middle and dribbled through and Katyn happened to be open. “I threaded the pass and she made the layin. That happened.” Flores, meanwhile, was keeping pace with Boe on the opposite side of the floor. When Boe was trapped just past halfcourt, Flores made her move to the left side of the hoop, just as Boe broke through. “The two defenders split and I was open and she passed it,” Flores said. “My thought was, ‘Am I close to the basket?’ And then I went up sideways and shot it with my left hand. I’m right-handed, so it’s normally more gentle with my left hand.” With the game on the line, Flores said she felt no fear. “I was totally not scared at all,” Flores said. “There was no moment where I was like, ‘Oh, my God, I’m shooting it.’ Just calm. “And when everyone came running off the bench I realized how big it was.” TURN

Sequim takes down Port Angeles Wolves earn first wrestling dual win over Riders in seven years BY MICHAEL CARMAN PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

SEQUIM — As the pins and points piled up early for the Sequim wrestling team against rival Port Angeles, belief blossomed on the Wolves’ bench. Thursday’s red-hot start, in which Sequim claimed three straight matches by pin, provided the boost needed to finally slip the grasp of the Roughriders. The Wolves shook off seven seasons of frustration against their rival to earn a 42-33 win

over Port Angeles, the first Olympic League dual triumph against Port Angeles since Jan. 8, 2009. “We’ve never beaten them, or really even come close,” Sequim’s Kevyn Ward said. “It shows how much we’ve grown as a team. We had a three-year losing streak [in Olympic League duals] and we came out of it last year, and now we are winning duals and showing people we KEITH THORPE/PENINSULA DAILY NEWS are still here, we are growing Jackson Schott of Port Townsend, top, takes on and becoming something.” TURN

Wolves: Five pins kick-start victory CONTINUED FROM B1 “It really shows a lot. “We’ve had our share of days where we didn’t wrestle to our full potential, but tonight everybody brought their A-game and put in the work to deserve this.” The Wolves (4-3) also defeated an undermanned Port Townsend 69-3 to finish the North Olympic Peninsula showdown with a 2-0 mark. Port Angeles beat the Redhawks 63-6 to finish 1-1. Sequim won six of the 10 contested matches against the Riders, five of those victories coming on pins by Michael Latimer at 220 pounds, McKenzie Stockdale (285), Dalton Brown (106), Ben Newell (126) and Ward (160). The first three contested matches barely lasted the length of one round combined. Latimer opened with a pin 1 minute and 3 seconds into the first round. Stockdale’s pin came 35 seconds into his match, while Brown pinned Daniel Basden in 41 seconds. “We came out with so much more energy tonight,” Sequim coach Charles Drabek said. “I think that early start put them on their heels a little bit.” The last time the Wolves beat the Riders, Drabek’s son Anthony earned a pin.

Port Angeles’ tallest player, Nizhoni Wheeler, picked up two quick fouls, sending a vital part of the Riders’ press break to the bench for much of the third. Still, Port Angeles held Black Hills back, as a big 3-pointer and two free throws from Haley Baxley gave the Riders a 28-22 lead entering the fourth quarter.

Seniors step up Baxley tied with Emily Johnson for the team high in points with nine. “Her 2 of 4 shooting from 3-point territory, plus her 3 of 4 free-throw line performance was critical for us,” Poindexter said. Black Hills earned its first lead of the game, 32-31, with 1:48 to go. Johnson nabbed two of her five steals for Port Angeles on back-toback possessions and was fouled on a layup attempt after her second steal with 59.5 seconds left.

“I think Emily Johnson played her best game as a Roughrider tonight,” Poindexter said. “She’s really one of the best defensive players I’ve ever coached.” The foul call on Johnson was too much for Wolves coach Tanya Greenfield, who was whistled for a technical foul — gifting the Riders four foul shots and possession. Johnson hit one free throw and Wheeler made two, and Port Angeles gained a 35-32 advantage. Black Hills tied the score on baskets by Emma Duff and Kayley Moloney, the last coming inside with eight seconds left to set up Flores’ game-winner. “It’s not a big game in the standings, but it’s a measurement game,” Poindexter said. “They knew we went up to Anacortes and got dumped by 28 in another nonleague game against a tough opponent, so this

was good for us.” Flores’ last-second shot secured a senior night win for Baxley, Johnson and Boe. It may not be the last time the trio plays on their home court, though. If Port Angeles finishes in first or second in Olympic League 2A, it will host a district playoff game Thursday, Feb. 11. The Riders (7-1, 14-2) are in sole possession of first place ahead of Olympic (7-2, 11-5). Port Angeles visits North Kitsap (6-3, 9-7) on Tuesday.

PORT ANGELES — Port Angeles lapped Olympic and Klahowya in an Olympic League boys swimming double dual at William Shore Memorial Pool. The Roughriders topped the Trojans 111-71 and eclipsed the Eagles 124-58. Port Angeles’ times were used for competition against both opponents, which means the places and meet points scored may differ between the two competitions, but posted times are the same. Tristin Butler earned a new state-qualifying time in the 100-yard butterfly, placing first in both competitions with a time of 57 seconds. Butler also won the 200 individual medley. Cameron Butler posted a district-qualifying time of 1:59.55 while winning the 200 freestyle for the Riders. He also placed first in the 100 breaststroke. Port Angeles recognized six seniors competing in their final home meet Thursday: Nathan Bock, cocaptain Wei-Yan Fu, Smit Kataria, Kody Kuch, Scott Methner and Kaleb Sheldon. Sheldon achieved a district time in the 100 fly, finishing second with a time of 1:06.72. Port Angeles (4-1) visits North Kitsap this Thursday.

PORT ANGELES — The Wolves recorded one firstplace finisher and six second-place finishes against the Trojans. Matthew Craig earned 164.6 points to win the 1-meter dive at Thursday’s meet at William Shore Memorial Pool. David Calderon and Christian Goodrich both dropped time in the 100yard backstroke while finishing second and third, respectively. “David dropped six seconds off his previous best and Christian dropped a half-second,” Sequim coach Linda Moats said. “They also placed second and third in this event against three Olympic swimmers.” Liam Payne finished second in the 100 breaststroke. “Liam continues to improve his time in this event,” Moats said. “He’s getting stronger and subtle changes in his technique have really made a difference in this race for him.” Sequim will host Bremerton at William Shore Memorial Pool on Wednesday.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Hey, don’t forget about us. As in, yes, while BradyManning 17 takes place earlier in the day, the teams with the two best records in the NFL go at it in the NFC championship game tonight. That would be the host Carolina Panthers, that rare team to go 15-1 in the regular season, and the Arizona Cardinals, who were next in the NFC and overall standings at 13-3. Maybe it isn’t the juiciest story line

NFL dominating the football world, but there’s plenty of reasons to be intrigued by this one, too. “One guy [Tom Brady] is playing in his 10th and there are two guys that are playing in their first,” Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer said of reaching the last step before the Super Bowl. Palmer, in his 13th season, and Panthers QB Cam Newton, in his fifth, are newbies at conference

title games. “Everybody has a different journey. Everybody has a different path, and however it works out is the way it works out. Everybody has different roads.” That’s also true for the coaches. Arizona’s Bruce Arians’ long and winding coaching road goes back to his time at Alabama under Bear Bryant. Ron Rivera, a linebacker for the awesome Chicago Bears’ defense of the 1980s, spent time on three coaching staffs before landing the Carolina gig. Both franchises have

been to the Super Bowl and lost close contests. New England beat Carolina 32-29 after the 2003 season, and Pittsburgh edged Arizona 27-23 for the 2009 championship. “I think we are the better team,” Cardinals All-Pro cornerback Patrick Peterson said. “I’m pretty sure they are saying the same thing, that they are the better team. We’ll find out on Sunday.” Some things to watch for in the NFC championship game, which kicks off at 3:40 p.m. on Fox.

In July 2015, McClanahan Lumber fulfilled Larry’s partially prepared dream! When he left for his hunting trip on October 2014, he was almost ready to start Sawing Trim Packages and flooring for sale to his customers. Most of you know he did not finish his dream so Judy, Ed and Zane did it for him! It was that important to Larry! In July, a special Moulder-Planer Trainer, from Maine, was hired and flown to Seattle to spend a solid week in training in Forks at the mill. The man was excellent and Ed and Zane are now announcing that McClanahan Lumber is ready to produce these products should you have a need for them in your building projects!

Port Angeles’ Tristin Butler swims a state time for 100-yard butterfly.

SEQUIM — In a matchup of two girls wrestling state-title contenders, Sequim’s Alma Mendoza bested Port Townsend’s Chloe Rogers 5-4 in their 145-pound match at Sequim High School. Mendoza placed seventh in the 125-pound bracket at Mat Classic, the state wrestling tournament last season. Rogers finished second at state at 140 pounds in her first season of wrestling. It’s likely that both wrestlers will compete at 140 pounds during the upcoming postseason. Mendoza earned the win in Thursday’s match with two points in the final 10 seconds. “I’ve lost to her two times before and I really wanted it,” Mendoza said. “The last time she beat me she outpointed me by a lot, so that was my goal this

To higher ground Quileute Tribal School competing for federal funds to move school BY ARWYN RICE PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

LA PUSH — The Quileute Tribal School is preparing to compete with nine other tribal schools for millions of dollars in funding to move students permanently to higher ground, away from ocean storms and tsunamis. The small kindergartenthrough-12th-grade school with an enrollment of 70 to 80 students is one of 10 tribal schools selected nationwide to compete for a complete replacement. The existing school site is adjacent to First Beach in La Push and, like much of the community, including the Quileute Tribal Center, the Quileute Senior Center and many homes, is directly in the path of possible tsunamis or flooding from the Quillayute River. Of the 78 schools that were eligible for the replacement due to age and condition, 53 submitted an application for replacement in 2015, according to the Office of Indian Affairs. LONNIE ARCHIBALD (2)/FOR PENINSULA DAILY NEWS On Jan. 13, the Quileute The Quileute tribe is seeking funding for a new school building away from First Beach in La Push.

PENINSULA DAILY NEWS

Hubby makes scene over breastfeeding DEAR ABBY: I gave birth to a beautiful baby girl three months ago. I had breastfed my 15-yearold, so it was natural for me to do the same with my new daughter. The problem is my husband, “Jerry,” does not support me breastfeeding in public. I’m somewhat large-chested, so I always cover up for fear of offending strangers. The last time we went shopping and the baby got hungry, when I attempted to feed her in a dressing room, Jerry got so upset he stormed out of the store and took the baby bag and stroller with him. I had a receiving blanket tucked into my tank top and had covered my breast so no one would see anything. I asked him what the problem

DEAR ABBY

If you are unable to get through to Jerry, or your husband cannot grasp this concept, your child’s doctor should explain it to him in simple English. Dear Abby: How does one “break up” with a hairdresser? I’m not unhappy with “Flossie,” my current one, but I’d like to try someone else for a change of pace. I know people of both sexes who have stayed with a hairstylist they are unhappy with because they can’t bring themselves to break up, so I know I’m not alone with this dilemma. I’d love to hear from hairdressers how they would prefer this be handled. Do they take it personally? Trendsetter in California Dear Trendsetter: Some do

take it personally, I’m sure. If you have a personal as well as a business relationship with Flossie, she may feel hurt that you’re leaving. However, it is not a sin to want to try someone else. It happens all the time in that business. My advice is to call Flossie in advance and let her know you won’t be coming so she can schedule someone else in that time slot. Then try the other stylist. That way, if you don’t like that stylist’s work, you can return to Flossie with no hard feelings.

As the weeks go by, signs of spring will be showing up everywhere. January and February have historically been the months to “see the eagles.” Before the bald eagle population grew to where it is today, this meant a field trip to the Skagit Valley region or a visit to Eaglemont and Concrete along the Skagit River. Now, we can view eagles closer to home. Wherever they gather at this time of the year, their location and numbers are influenced by spawning salmon. Eagles congregate where there are dying, spawned-out fish.

Putting on a show In doing so, they put on a wildlife show that has grown in popularity over the decades. I was reminded that our local bald eagles are growing more active just a few days ago. My dog, Penny, and I had returned from a short walk, glad to get out of the rain, when a familiar call-

We went from giving up because even a pump didn’t help to “oh, my word!” if you get my drift. My husband also takes L-citrulline and L-arginine that same day for an extra boost, but the key is the beet juice. We are in our late 70s. You can buy beet juice at any natural-food store. Even if the ED pills don’t seem to work for you, this could make a big difference. It might even give you natural performance back if you drink beet juice daily. It takes a couple of months to build up the nitric oxide in the bloodstream to the point of having really good results, but it is worth the effort.

Thank you for your intriguing suggestion. Sildenafil (Viagra) and tadalafil (Cialis) work by blocking an enzyme (PDE5) that breaks down a compound called cGMP. Nitric oxide also leads to higher levels of cGMP. This dilates blood vessels in the penis and facilitates increased blood flow. Foods like beets or dark chocolate also enhance nitric-oxide formation. Studies have found that beet juice improves flexibility of the lining of blood vessels and lowers blood pressure (Nutrients, April 2015). Although there are no studies to suggest that beets or juice can improve the effectiveness of sildenafil, your personal experiments are fascinating. One small study evalu-

Calcium dosage

Could you please comment about the news report a few months ago pertaining to calcium supplements? The study showed that calcium did not help older people’s bones and that it could actually be harmful, with side effects like heart attacks. Now I am afraid to take my 1,500 mg of calcium with vitamin D per day and have cut the dose down to 500 mg of calcium a day. Am I doing the right thing? I am female, age 73.

You have mentioned a source of great confusion for many people. For years, doctors have been urging older people (especially women) to take high doses of calcium (1,200 mg/day) to prevent bone loss and avoid fractures. The only problem with that recommendation is that it was based on theory. When scientists reviewed studies of calcium intake and the risk of bone fracture, they found no association between the two. They concluded that “there is no clinical trial evidence that increasing

calcium intake from dietary sources prevents fractures. Evidence that calcium supplements prevent fractures is weak and inconsistent.” (BMJ online, Sept. 29, 2015). Calcium supplements have some downsides. Too much calcium can increase the chance of kidney stones (New England Journal of Medicine, Feb. 16, 2006). In addition, people who take calcium supplements are at a greater risk of heart attack (BMJ online, July 29, 2010). If you would like to learn more about the pros and cons of calcium supplements and other ways to reduce the possibility of osteoporosis, you may wish to listen to our interview with Dr. Walter Willett of Harvard School of Public Health and Michael Castleman, co-author of Building Bone Vitality.

Hermanns, a farm family, never rest IT LOOKS AS if Amelia Hermann’s long hours in the saddle are paying off for her in a big way. She recently won the Northwest Junior Rodeo Association’s high-point title of All Around Junior Cowgirl, along with a saddle and silver belt buckles for wins in team roping, barrel racing and breakaway roping. Riding under her grandpa Bill Hermann’s Three Hermann Brothers’ brand, the Sequim Middle School student first joined the local Peninsula Junior Rodeo Association and then the larger NJRA while she was just knee high to a grasshopper. At just 12 years old, she’s become a top contender in both junior rodeo and the National High School Rodeo Association’s (NHSRA) Junior High Division. Recently, I stopped by to chat with Amelia at the Hermann family homestead off Blue Mountain Road. There, I spoke with her greatgrandfather Ted Hermann, her grandpa and grandma Bill and Kay Hermann, and her parents, Mike and Rashell Hermann. Her older sister, Saydee Hermann, is taking a temporary break from horse competitions. Amelia’s mom said she started plunking Amelia behind her saddle on her mule and taking Amelia on trail rides as soon as she could “sit up by herself and hold on.” From the start, her toddler was hooked on horses. When she was 3, a family friend gave Amelia a mini horse that her mother said, “she rode everywhere and took care of herself.” At 6, her parents gave her a “real horse,” and her mom started leading her into the arena where little Amelia took to barrel racing competitions like bees to honey. And her mother couldn’t be happier to share a love of horses, barrel racing and team roping with her daughter. When Amelia won first place with her partner in team roping at the NWJR finals, her mom

Four generations of the Hermann family — from left, Ted, Mike, Bill and Kay — gather to congratulate Amelia Hermann, center, for earning this year’s Northwest Junior Rodeo Association’s highest points in her division to gain the title of All Around Junior Cowgirl and a saddle — worn by her horse, Millie — along with Port Angeles’ Les Schwab saddle sponsors Andrea and Randy Schroeder and her mother, Rashell Billings Hermann, with the family’s dog, Polar.

PENINSULA HORSEPLAY said, “there were a lot of 18-year-old Griffiths boys in that competition who didn’t like that one bit.” Mom says Amelia’s a “goal-driven kid” who rises each day on her own by 6 a.m. to go to the barn and feed the family’s horses. When she gets home from

school, she goes right to work at the barn to clean the stalls and then start riding horses. She feeds the horses, then goes back to her house for a 6 p.m. dinner and, whenever she can, heads right back out to ride. Most weekends, she keeps busy with rodeo competitions or clinics. It seems she’s living her dream life.

Hermann Brothers I’ve heard the Hermann Brothers name for years and was aware their family’s roots grew long and deep here, so when I heard about Amelia winning the

title, I emailed her grandmother Kay Hermann to ask if I could take a photo of her with the entire family and learn more about the family’s history. We arranged to meet at the family’s barn. Well, I had no idea the barn was actually a nice new barn with an attached indoor riding arena. When Kay came out to greet me, I could only hope she didn’t see the drool of envy flowing over my slack jaw. Are there any equestrians who wouldn’t want an indoor riding arena for themselves?

Back in the day, Bill said, “it was a different town and community, with lots of mom-and-pop grocery stores.” His father moved here in 1937 fresh off his family’s 800-acre wheat farm in North Dakota “where they owned up to 40 working horses they used to plow the fields.”

Division of labor and costs in a relationship MY BOYFRIEND AND I live together. We split the cost of food and household goods 50-50. Recently, I was found to have an autoimmune problem that requires using more expensive cleaning products. My boyfriend was upset about splitting the cost. Living alone, he said, he would not use them. (He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t complain that I do all the cleaning.) Still, I proposed a 75-25 split, and he accepted. Now I feel bitter. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re only talking $20 a month, but it feels as if he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t appreciate my labor or sympathize with my condition. But I have to honor the compromise I suggested, right? Melissa in New York â&#x20AC;&#x153;If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to be clean,â&#x20AC;? as the old TV spot went, â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to be Tide.â&#x20AC;? But tides, as we know, ebb and flow, the same way that imbalances can in our relationships. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to raise this with your boyfriend. Sadly, honest communi-

cation is required (even when a swift kick seems more gratifying). You couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know in advance how the new division of expenses would make you feel. You were just taking a stab at a solution. But before you speak up, decide what you care about. I bet those few extra bucks for detergent are not the real problem. If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t base your argument on shekels. If you want your beau to be more sensitive to your health issue, start there. Or maybe you would like a fairer division of labor or a little more appreciation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or all three. Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve pinpointed your goal, go to your boyfriend in a measured way. (No pent-up bitterness allowed. Remember, it was your suggestion.)

Galanes

Start with, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Honey, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not feeling great about our grand compromise on cleaning products.â&#x20AC;? Then explain why. With luck, he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thought this through. But if he remains unmoved after hearing your concerns â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as well as benefiting from free cleaning service and the likelihood that he eats way more than you â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he is telling you who he is. Listen.

Dear Cheryl: My wife and I got divorced last year after she had an affair with her supervisor. Our children were 3 and 1 when this happened. I went on a mission to make life a living hell for her and this guy. I got him fired, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lucky I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do more. My wife came running back to me after she found out who he really was. I was there to comfort her, but shortly after that, she wanted nothing to do with me. This happened at least three times. Then, two weeks after the divorce, she moved back in with me. She said she wanted to fall back in love and spend

So, take a deep breath and tell him you love him and want to marry him. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to come as a total shock. In fact, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most natural thing in the world.

In the meantime, continue to see your children, but keep a cool distance from your ex-wife.

DEAR CHERYL: My boyfriend is 35. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 28. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been dating steadily for more than two years. Neither of us has been married. The only time marriage ever came up was after weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been dating for six months and he asked me to move in with him. I declined, saying Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d only live with someone I was married to. Since that time, I have no idea what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thinking. He says things like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels like home when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m with you,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Someday, when we have a house and a dog.â&#x20AC;? But everything is vague. When I press for more information after these comments, he just shrugs and says he likes things the way they are, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;planning for the future.â&#x20AC;? I want to know if he plans to marry me, but the only ways I can think of to start this conversation are awful. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m terrified of sounding like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pressuring him. I really need to know if heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s serious or just stringing me along. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very important to me to get married and have a family and, unfortunately, time is running out. As much as I love him, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d end this relationship if he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to marry me. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Ready Already

Mr. Petersen was born in Granger, Iowa, in 1926. He went from high school to the Army in World War II, where he was a tank driver, most notably at the Battle of the Bulge. After his discharge, he went to Northern Iowa University, where he received his bachelorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree in English. He met his wife, Pat, and after their marriage, they went to the University of Northern Colorado, where Mr. Petersen received his masterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree. He then embarked on a career teaching high school English, history and drama. Mr. Petersen left teaching and went into sales, eventually becoming the national sales manager for Wickes Furniture. Not a fan of retirement, he continued to work in a variety of positions until moving to Sequim. Mr. Petersen and Pat moved to Sequim in 2012 to be closer to family. Before the move, they had lived in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Colorado, Maryland and, for many years, Southern California. Mr. Petersen and his wife have traveled extensively and now love the beauty and opportunities available on the Peninsula. He has two living children: Deb

Martin continued to edit and write, completing in 2015 a three-act play, “Cactus Idyll,” about the novelist Katherine Anne Porter and the poet Hart Crane when the two celebrated writers lived near each other in Mexico City. At the time of his death, he was finishing a screenplay about the filming during the early 1930s of Sergei Eisenstein’s “¡Que viva México!” All his life, Mr. Martin traveled widely in Mexico researching locales and acquiring the “local color” he used in his writing about the Latino culture in his many articles. James Michael Martin was born March 23, 1943, and died 18 days before his announced retirement. Mr. Martin was one of the bright lights in the generation of film writers who grew up with Italian neorealism, championed the French “New Wave,” formulated the auteur-theory of filmmaking and helped elevate the taste of a new generation of filmgoers. He was both talented and erudite, a true aesthete, author and critic in the same mold as the late-19th-century writers George Bernard Shaw and Oscar Wilde. He made a deep impact on those who knew him and on those who read his learned articles. Mr. Martin was a social maverick with a delightful sense of humor and adventure. He led one of the most interesting lives in his generation.

When Zach moves to a quiet and sleepy small town, he finds himself bored to tears until he meets what might be the hamlet’s only saving graces: his new

best friend, Champ, and his new neighbor, Hannah (Rush). Hannah, it turns out, is the daughter of famous “Goosebumps” author R. L. Stine, a mysterious and somewhat creepy man who appears to be a prisoner in his own twisted imagination. When Zach and Champ open one of Stine’s manuscripts, they learn a horrifying truth: that all of the

is also slated to appear in an as-yet-unspecified role in the third episode (though in a photo posted on Twitter, Nanjiani is seen wearing an animal control officer jacket, flanked by Duchovny and Anderson). So just how are cast members of the original series feeling about jumping back

into roles they haven’t played in years? Well, when he first got the script for the opening episode, Duchovny says he cried: “I just read it about an hour ago, and I started crying reading the first page,” Duchovny told Entertainment Weekly in May. “It was just so strange to see the names on the page. . . . We’d been planning it for a long time.” For Davis, it was an easy decision to return. “As an actor it’s good for me, it’s good for my career and it’s stimulating,” he said in an interview with Den of Geek. “I had no hesitation. I would have been quite disappointed if the show had been done without me, and I think a lot of fans would have been disappointed as well.” Millions of fans are wondering how this season will play out. Major details are scant, even as the show is about to air, but creator Chris Carter has managed to drop one significant bombshell, revealing to the Hollywood Reporter in September that Mulder and Scully are no longer a couple. “We put some of the tension back in that was relieved by them being together,” he said. “It added to the storytelling opportunities.” Mitch Pileggi returns to “The X-Files.”
