75 cents

Tax rate to climb for fire service

The year’s Top 10 tips for taking care of trees

By Kevin Hanson

Editor

EHS Wrestling Slide Show Enumclaw Police Reports Updated Daily

The new year will bring new taxes to Enumclaw residents, as they pay for fire protection, emergency medical treatment and ambulance service.

Through Dec. 31, property owners will be paying the city of Enumclaw for such services, just as they have done for decades. The public vote in November 2010 to annex into Fire District 28 – which received 85 percent support – kept the funding system in place for all of 2011 but changes things significantly when the calendar flips to January.

For 2011, the city has paid for the fire department by using money from the general fund. The collection amounts to about 89 cents for every $1,000 of assessed property value in support of fire/EMT services. For the owner of property valued at $300,000, that means $267 annually.

Starting in January, when city residents began paying Fire District 28 instead of the city, the collection rate jumps to $1.09 – the same level assessed to rural residents of the district. The owner of a $300,000 property will begin paying $327 annually.

Because Rachel Kirk stepped forward an arsonist served time for his crime.

Kirk was honored for her bravery during a Dec. 7 ceremony at the Enumclaw Fire Department headquarters. She also received a $1,000 Arson Award from Northwest Insurance Council and Arson Alarm Foundation.

Kirk provided investigators with key infor-

mation that led to the arrest and conviction of an arsonist who torched his own foreclosed Enumclaw home Jan. 9. Damage is estimated at nearly $350,000.

“It takes a lot of courage for someone to call in a tip,” said Ann Buettner, Arson Alarm Foundation interim president, who presented the award. “They don’t know how it will affect their lives.”

Kirk admits she was hesitant. “Doing the right thing is not easy,� she said. “There was no obligation. No one knew I knew anything. It was my conscience.�

She said her thoughts kept going to the first responders who risked their lives

fighting something deliberately set. “That’s not what they’re here to do,� she said. “Firefighters can be injured fighting a needless fire,� said Craig Muller, fire investigator/unit supervisor with the King County Sheriff’s Office, who was on hand for the ceremony. “When she came to us she was truly scared,�

Devine said the division is still investigating fires at Westwood Elementary School, the most recent a couple months ago, and would be, “happy to put a name in for a reward.� “Small fires eventually lead to bigger fires,�

Enumclaw/District 28 Chief Joe Clow said.

Buettner said the Arson Award Fund supports local fire departments and law enforcement’s efforts because of arson’s economic impact on insurance.

Arson Alarm Foundation is a nonprofit organization that seeks to reduce loss of life and property by increasing arson awareness in Washington. “To watch a family rummaging through the remains of their home trying to salvage a piece of their lives is devastating,�

Buettner said.

TAXES FROM 1 But that’s just the first step.

Santa on patrol Firefighters throughout the Plateau are spreading some holiday cheer this week, taking part in Santa Patrols.

Enumclaw Firefighters begin patrolling tonight, Wednesday, with every route beginning at 5:30 p.m.: t 8FEOFTEBZ o 8BUTPO Street west to Semanski, Roosevelt south to Warner Avenue; t 5IVSTEBZ o 4FNBOTLJ Street west to 244th, McHugh Avenue south to Warner Avenue; t 'SJEBZ o 4FNBOTLJ east to Division, McHugh Avenue south to Roosevelt Avenue; t 4BUVSEBZ o FWFSZUIJOH from Division east, McHugh south to Roosevelt.

Sunday evening has been identified for any makeup

dates, if needed.

As they make their rounds, firefighters will accept donations for the local food bank. They also will accept toys to be distributed to needy families and will take cash donations in support of their efforts.

Buckley The Buckley Fire Department kicked off its Santa Patrol Monday and will continue through Friday.

Tonight, Wednesday, the crew will cover B, C and D streets to Main Street and Collins Road; Thursday, Santa and his team travel through the Copperwynd development; and Friday, the group will visit Shay Estates along Bevlo, Sheets and Klink streets, winding up at Rainier School.

tax rate to $1.50 per $1,000 of assessed value. Using the same $300,000 property, the annual tax bill would jump to $450.

For city residents, the tax increase would be nearly 70 percent greater in 2013 than in 2011.

The desire for more money can be seen in the district’s plans for staffing and capital improvements.

According to a published budget, the district will have 13 firefighters in 2012 and plans on employing 18 by 2018. The administrative staff, now at four, is projected to increase to five in 2015.

District facilities could play a significant role in

spending during the coming years. The department continues to be housed on Wells Street in Enumclaw, in a building owned by the city and rented to District 28 for the nominal sum of $100 per year.

District commissioners, wanting new headquarters, approved the purchase of a 5.85-acre site on Roosevelt Avenue on Enumclaw’s west side. The design of the building has not been tackled, but construction is tentatively planned for 2015. On the schedule for 2016 is improvements to the district’s Station 2 in Cumberland; that project carries an estimated price tag of $1.25 million.

Some need help during holidays Wrapping gifts, decorating the Christmas tree, hanging Christmas lights, baking, going to parties, hiding presents, visits from family and friends and special church services are the activities that most of us celebrate and treasure during this season of Advent. But for some, those who are grieving and lonely, these activities do not generate anticipation. In fact, the approaching holidays are dreaded as there is little energy for all of the usual excitement and hustle bustle.

There are many forms of grief:

loss of a loved family members or good friends, the loss of pets, the loss of a job, loss of physical abilities, the brokenness of divorce or the grief of giving up one’s home to move to another city

or to an assisted living facility.

For these persons, the thought of smiling and pretending joy during Christmas would be painful, if not impossible.

If you find yourself in this situation or you know someone else who is struggling with grief this season, there are some resources to draw upon. One story that I found particularly touching is called the Mustard Seed Christmas. You can find the whole text of this story on the Internet by looking up the www.stephenministries.org. In the parable of the mustard seed, God is able to take even the smallest tiny seed of faith and grow it into a kingdom of hope. For one woman who was grieving the loss of her mother, she found this parable a source of consolation. One morning she went to her spice cupboard and found her mustard seeds. She took one seed, taped it to a piece of paper and placed the paper on the mantle of her fire-

place. It was a reminder that there is hope and that with God’s help faith can be germinated and Light comes out of darkness.

In many communities, churches provide special services at Christmastime. These services are meant to be comforting and give people a chance to participate in a service that is quieter and meditative, while still offering the Advent message of hope. From reading the responses of persons who have attended such services, it is encouraging to know that it helped these persons face the season. In fact, the remembrance helped in the healing process.

I would encourage any person who is actively grieving this season to take part in a community church service designed just for them. We get over grief by grieving, not by stuffing it away. Blue Christmas services are intended to acknowledge grief and to offer consolation and hope. If you live in

Grief support groups are also very helpful. You can meet with others who share some of the same feelings as you may. You can find support groups by calling your local hospital, local library or Chamber of Commerce.

One such support group meets from 1 to 2:30 p.m. the first and third Wednesdays of the month at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Enumclaw. The group leader is Mel Erickson.

Personally, I find Jesus’ invitation to come to him with our burdens a welcome invitation: “Come to me, all you that are weary and carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest.

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls (Matt. 11: 28-29).

bait safely if you choose one that uses pet-safe iron rather than traditional poison in the pellets. Look for slug baits called “Worry Free,� “Sluggo� and “Escargo� and you’ll be impressed by the results. You won’t find any slimy mess after you bait with one of these – the iron makes the slugs lose their appetite so they climb under a rock and starve to death. You can also collect slugs after a rain storm, spray tiny slugs with a mix of one-third ammonia and two-thirds water and use ducks or geese to gobble your slugs. Another slug strategy is to make one raised bed or container garden the slug-free zone and then use slug-resistant plants in the rest of the landscape.

We have lots of deer that insist on eating my roses. Do any deer repellent sprays really work?

Nothing works as well as a deer fence, but many deer repellents will work for at least a few weeks in our wet weather.

The trick is to keep spraying the new growth, and reapply after a serious rainfall.

You may want to fence only the rose garden and just grow deer-resistant plants in the rest the landscape.

On November 30th, our beloved son Tom left this world after being ours for 37 years. He was born in Coos Bay, Oregon on November 18, 1974. Growing up, he was a very happy kid and seemed to stay a kid at heart. His greatest joy in life was being with his two young sons.

He is survived by his two sons Connor and Jaden, their mother Tessa, his sister Lisa Edwards, her husband Cam and their children Campbell and Caty, his parents, Karen and Keith Gamble of Lake Tapps and many loving Tripp, LeFebvre and Edwards relatives.

Tom attended Auburn High School, GRCC and Central Washington University. Tom started working in the automotive industry when he was sixteen and made a career out of it. He had a passion for music, movies, laughter and being with family and friends. He always made others feel better for just having known him. He will be missed on this earth.

A funeral mass will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, December 16th at Sacred Heart Church 1614 Farrelly St. in Enumclaw (cross street Hwy. 164/Griffin Ave.). A reception and celebration of Tom’s life will be held at the church hall following the service. Interment Evergreen Memorial Park.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you please give to others in need through your personal efforts or charitable giving. Please sign the online Guestbook at www.weeksfuneralhomes.com

It’s my party and I’ll lie if I want to Last week we got a phone call from a law firm in Washington, D.C., asking for a copy of a story written in March 2009 for use in a brief to be submitted before the Supreme Court.

The story dealt with a Sumner man named Steven Bennest, who was convicted by a federal court for making false claims about military medals and decorations – including a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star – in an attempt to receive additional military compensation from the government.

Bennest served in the military, but he was never awarded either medal.

Brian Beckley The judge called Staff Writer Bennest’s actions “shameful and hurtful to other soldiers� and sentenced him to 24 months of probation and community service.

The prosecution was part of “Operation Stolen Valor,� designed to crack down on those claiming honors they did not receive.

The story is to be used as part of a brief in the case United States v. Alvarez, a challenge to the Stolen Valor Act, enacted by Congress in 2006. The case deals with a California man elected to a position on a water board in 2007. During the campaign, Javier Alvarez stood up and announced that he was a retired Marine who won the Congressional Medal of Honor.

The problem is that Alvarez was never awarded the medal of honor, nor was he ever even in the military.

Alvarez was charged and convicted of violating the Stolen Valor Act for “falsely representing verbally that he had been awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor when, in truth and as he knew, he had not.� He is the first person charged and convicted under the law.

Basically, Mr. Alvarez is a real-world version of Jon Lovitz’s old pathological liar character from Saturday Night Live (“Yeah, that’s the ticket‌â€?).

State must preserve funding for critical-access hospitals

By Dennis Popp For The Courier-Herald

Legislators are considering a bill in the Washington State Legislature’s current special session that would, if approved, have devastating financial impacts on St. Elizabeth Hospital in Enumclaw and other critical access facilities.

The Critical Access Hospital Program, created by the 1997 federal Balanced Budget Act, is a safetynet device to assure Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries living in remote

areas access to essential health care services. Enumclaw Regional Hospital earned critical access status from the state in November 2004. That designation then transferred to St. Elizabeth Hospital when it replaced Enumclaw Regional in February 2011.

Critical access facilities follow special federal and state guidelines. They are limited to 25 inpatient beds, for example, and adhere to Medicaid and Medicare payment structures that are financial lifelines. Approximately 50 percent of our hospital’s reimbursement is for services provided to

patients enrolled in either Medicaid or Medicare.

House Bill 2130 that state legislators are discussing would eliminate cost-based reimDennis Popp bursement for all 38 critical access facilities in Washington, resulting in a 50 percent reduction in Medicaid payments. This would mean a stag-

State’s budget gap was built on pie-in-the-sky projections

By Rep. Cathy Dahlquist For The Courier-Herald

On Nov. 28, Gov. Chris Gregoire called all lawmakers into special session because of a $2 billion spending gap due to an unsustainable budget passed last May. Since arriving in Olympia two weeks ago, the only thing we managed to do is pass a bailout bill for a Wenatchee arena.

As lawmakers, it is our constitutional duty to balance our state’s bud-

get. Fixing this mess in a swift and efficient manner by setting priorities is the job taxpayers of Washington expect us to do.

Before I discuss some of the reasons this attitude exists in Olympia, it is worth noting, coincidentally, the 2011-13 budget spends $2 billion, or 6.9 percent, more than the 2009-11 budget. The reason for the $2 billion spending gap is budget writers last May anticipated a nearly 14 percent increase in tax collections.

These were piein-the-sky projections that didn’t pan out. So here we are back in the same predicament we were in just one year ago – spendCathy Dahlquist ing more than the previous budget yet cutting core services. Education and

This photo was taken inside either the No. 10 or Champion underground coal mine operated by the South Willis Coal Company in Spiketon near Wilkeson. The group visiting the mine was part of a date with three girls from Buckley, Lena, Ruth, and Marie Morris, joining two coal miners from Wilkeson, John H. and Ed Morris. Though they shared the same last name and same Welsh heritage, the two Morris families were not related. A photographer captured this moment in a small opening as the group poses underground with the shovels, drill bits and underground lamps of the day.

This coal mining area was originally known as Pittsburg, later Spiketon, and still later Morristown, named in honor of mine manager Abe Morris.

It’s also nice to step outside in the chilly fresh air as you stroll from store to store. Inside the controlled climate of a mall, you forget it’s winter – and winter, at least in my mind, is an intrinsic part of the Christmas milieu.

Everything considered – the gaudy, holiday decor, the large, stylish selections of merchandise, the winter ambiance, and a coffee nudge or two – I guess I prefer shopping in downtown Seattle. The twinkling lights on the naked trees along Fifth Avenue, the large window displays in Macy’s and the grand pianist in Nordstrom are all quite splendid.

SBA can help when starting a business

By Calvin Goings With a new year on the horizon, it’s a perfect time to dream about the future and set new goals and resolutions. If your plans include starting a business, the best place to begin is with the U. S. Small Business Administration.

The SBA has offices across our region; and lenders, counselors and resource partners who work in right here in your community. With their help, we have been knocking down obstacles for entrepreneurs and small business owners for nearly 60 years.

In fact, for the fiscal year that just ended, we helped provide 632 loans to small businesses in the state of Washington. Nationwide, SBA had our biggest year ever.

Calvin Goings How can SBA help you ring in the new year?

Have you jotted down a few ideas on paper and need someone who can help you formulate a business plan? The SBA or one of our resource partners is a great place to start. You can find local help by going to www.sba.gov/direct and typing in your ZIP code.

Or, check out www.SCORE.org, a volunteer organization, with more than 350 chapters and more than 10,000 mentors, many of whom have “been there and done that” when it comes to starting a business.

The best part is that SCORE mentors can often help you for free.

Are you already a small business owner?

Many small business owners have come to SBA

Rockridge on list of business winners An Enumclaw company was among the winners when King County Executive Dow Constantine celebrated the importance and the accomplishments of small businesses by presenting the first annual King County Executive’s Small Business Awards in October.

Nearly 250 people attended the ceremony at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue.

Honored as the Rural Small Business of the Year was Enumclaw’s Rockridge

Orchards and Cidery. It is owned by Wade and Judy Bennett.

Nominations were made by local jurisdictions and business organizations from July through September and the 125 King County businesses that were nominated were narrowed down to three finalists in each category before the awards ceremony. Businesses had to have 50 employees or fewer and have been in business for at least three years to qualify for the seven award categories.

Nature’s Inventory products booming, for a second time

By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer

By the time LouAnn Brandjes was finally diagnosed with Lupus, she’d had enough.

The chronic inflammatory disease that affects various body parts, especially the skin, joints, blood and kidneys, was taking a toll and she was ready to fight back.

“I was one of those people who was not OK with it,” she said of the diagnosis that came years after she graduated from Enumclaw High School in 1985. “It was not an optimistic scenario. I figured I made myself sick, I can make myself better.”

She threw her pile of prescription pills in the garbage and vowed to find a better way.

What she discovered was the wellness oils she created to make her life more enjoyable also worked for others and in 2002 she launched Nature’s Inventory.

The mission at Nature’s Inventory is to provide natural options in health and wellbeing without pills.

“Everything is topical,” Brandjes said of the oils. The research is clinical, most used by Brandjes and her staff. Brandjes, a certified herbalist, hand selects the all natural, certified organic and certified vegan ingredients. Manufacturing is not farmed out.

“I’m real careful about where I get my ingredients,” she said. “I feel pret-

ty good about what we create is going to work.”

It all started with her own restless legs.

Brandjes previously owned a successful natural cleaning products company, but sold it to concentrate on her health.

Unable to sleep one night, she put together an oil product and rubbed it into her lower back. It worked so well, she began sharing it with others.

Pretty soon it was in demand.

“I wasn’t really trying to create a business,” she said. “But I couldn’t really ignore what was happening.

“I had no intention of starting a new company.”

But she couldn’t ignore the response.

“From the moment I started it, it took off,” she said. “I didn’t want to answer the phones, I thought they were going to be people complaining.

Instead they were people who were crying, for a good reason. They were saying I haven’t slept in 10, 20, 30, 40 years. The first time I put it on my back I slept.”

Those customers, cheerleaders, Brandjes likes to call them, led to more products for men, women, children and pets covering ailments like headaches, diaper rash, back ache, cholesterol, menopause and even “Makin’ Babies.”

Nature’s Inventory was booming in its Mount Lake Terrace location with 12 employees. There was national rec-

ognition in magazines, international sales and negotiations with big-name pharmacies for store placement.

Then the recession hit.

“The recession was hard. I had to lay off a lot of people who were my friends,” she said.

But it gave her the opportunity to re-evaluate the company and life.

She and her family had moved back to Enumclaw 12 years ago. In June, she moved Nature’s Inventory here and employs four.

“I love Enumclaw. This is the only place I wanted to live,” she said. “This is a good phase, a happy phase.”

Smaller, perhaps, but growing again.

Nature’s Inventory has an strong online presence, www.naturesinventory.com, and is available in 300 retail outlets. Products can also be found in catalogs like the Vermont Country Store and Brandjes and staff have been hitting trade and consumer shows lately.

She said the company isn’t about the money, it’s about the product and customer satisfaction.

“I had to re-evaluate what I wanted from the business and how I wanted to run the business,” she said. “I’m happy with being small and we will grow differently this time.

“I’m OK with it growing, but I want it to grow organically.”

“It’s a lot of fun,” she said. “Everyday we get calls from customers that make me cry.”

Year-end Top 10 list good for New Year too

Top 10 List No. 10 If trees have fallen during a severe storm, a root rot may have contributed to the failure. Such diseases usually spread by root to root contact. Downed trees should be checked by a qualified professional to determine if nearby trees are also infected and removal should be considered.

No. 9 Be respectful of neighbors that wish to preserve their trees.

View issues are very common.

Unfortunately some individuals

The Evergreen Arborist Dennis Tompkins Columnist

damage or remove a neighbor’s tree without permission. This usually leads to legal action and damage claims, not to mention strained relations with a neighbor.

No. 8 If other tree problems arise with a neighbor, try for a peaceful settlement without involving attorneys and lawsuits. Cool heads usually lead to win-win solutions.

No. 7 If worried about trees in your own or nearby yards, have a hazard evaluation done by a professional. If a dangerous situation is discovered, the investment will have been worthwhile to remove the risk and to contribute to everyone’s peace of mind.

No. 6 If a doorbell “arborist� encourages tree removals or “windsail-

ing� a tree, consider a second opinion from an independent source. Do not be afraid to question credentials and whether a commission is to be paid on the amount quoted for the job. If so, does he truly have your best interests at heart?

Note that anyone that can spell the word can call themselves an “arborist.� Certified arborists will have a card with an ID number issued by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA).

Certification requires passage of a comprehensive exam, membership in the ISA and fulfillment of continuing education requirements.

No. 5 Beware of the lawn service employee (or a husband) that threatens your small trees and shrubs with hedge trimmers. Their use may be appropriate if a “sculpted� appearance is desirable. But many shrubs as rhododendrons and azaleas and small trees such as Japanese maples should be hand pruned to maintain a more natural shape.

Unfortunately, it is very easy to fire up a hedge trimmer and to attack a landscape.

Often the results are unattractive, particularly after leaves have fallen.

In addition, improperly “shaped� trees and shrubs result in more work than if pruned to retain natural shapes.

No. 4 When considering using pesticides, have a problem properly identified, select a legal and effective treatment and apply it at the right time. Follow the labeled instructions because improper use can lead to polluting the local environment.

WSU Master Gardener clinics are good sources to seek diagnostic help.

Otherwise, an on-site visit by a certified arborist or another professional usually removes any guesswork.

No. 3 Avoid the temptation to top trees. Aggressive trimming is ugly, creates maintenance nightmares and can shorten a tree’s life.

Overpruning usually stimulates sprouting as trees attempt to replace the leaves and twigs that acted as the food manufacturing plant.

In other words, topping usually stimulates growth and results in more work than if a tree was properly pruned or thinned.

The leaves are falling...

No. 2 Remember, the best tree pruning jobs are those that appear as if very little has been done. Butcher jobs are all too obvious – especially when the tortured skeletons of trees are revealed during the fall and winter.

No. 1 A big thank you to all the Courier-Herald readers that hopefully have learned a bit from the columns. I look forward to another year of writing about tree issues of interest to homeowners. I also look forward to continue to answer your e-mail and phone questions.

This column has addressed many tree issues during the year.

These included a recent warning about the anticipated rough winter conditions in the Pacific Northwest and steps to take in preparation for severe storms.

To highlight some of the other issues, it seems fitting to create a “Top 10 List� in the spirit of the David Letterman as 2011 draws to a close. It has been developed from situations we homeowners often face in our landscapes.

In no particular order of importance, here goes.

Familiar Faces

Plants that have prickly, furry or gray foliage are not preferred by deer, but deer are browsers and will taste anything. Some dogs do a good job of keeping deer away, but it is a combination of sprays, noise, dogs and a good fence that works best.

Moss and lichen grow on top of my soil and in my lawn. What can I do?

Learn to love the moss monster or start using a hoe, a rake or a hand trowel to turn the moss and lichens under into the topsoil. You might also want to consider covering your soil with a mulch of wood chips or bark to help it dry out. Now find some comfort in the fact that moss is not hurting your other plants. It is simply an opportunist growing wherever there is cool dampness.

Moles are ruining my lawn!

Their runways have made dips and bumps and sinking parts all over the yard.

What is the answer?

Moles and voles are ruining my lawn as well. Trapping is the only real solution and you can go online and try some newly-designed mole and mouse traps or buy a scissor-type mole trap from a nursery or home center store. It is not illegal to sell, buy or own mole traps. You could also adopt a kitten with a family background in mole murder. Most cats prefer cat food to hunting moles and voles but the offspring of good hunters have had amazing success at removing moles and mice in many gardens.

Using chewing gum, human hair and other tricks will not keep moles from your lawn if earthworms and grubs are under your grass. Moles eat insects but field mice and voles use old mole runways to nibble at your bulbs and plant roots.

If you do trap a mole, bury it back into its runway to discourage any other rodents from using the tunnel. Just make sure that mole is dead before you bury it.

in this case the forestry and lumber industry. Likewise, he has reached the end of his unemployment benefits, and no new jobs have become available in his industry. For both John and Tom, they are proactively looking for work, doing all the right things, and yet there are no more public resources available to help them make ends meet.

The construction industry alone lost another 12,000 jobs between October and November nationally. There are over 8.5 million people in this country working only part time because of economic reasons and another 7 million working more than one job. Unemployment in King County has dropped from 8.8% October 2010 to 7.9% in October 2011. This seems like good news, until you look at Pierce County, where unemployment has risen from 8.8% to 9.1% in the same time period. This month, December 2011, extended federal unemployment benefits will begin to phase out.

As we continue to wait out this economic storm, the face of our neighbors needing help has dramatically changed. They are no longer just the homeless, but possibly the person next door.

As you think through the people who come across your daily life, you may know of people just like John & Tomâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;familiar faces. They are our neighbors, doing everything right, doing their best to get back to where they were.

At Plateau Outreach Ministries, we are thankful that through your generosity we are able to provide assistance to help our neighbors like John and Tom.

The economic turmoil that began in 2007 has affected each of us in some regard. As I looked for some good news for our economy to begin getting better, I ran across the headline, â&#x20AC;&#x153;US Housing Crisis is Now Worse Than Great Depression.â&#x20AC;?

At Plateau Outreach Ministries, this translates to not only more people needing help, but a different face to our neighbors in need.

John (not his real name) recently came into Plateau Outreach Ministries looking for help with his bills. He worked in the heavy equipment construction industry for over 30 years. He was let go for lack of work. He has maintained good standing with both his employer and the union, but no new jobs have become available. His unemployment benefits have run out, and he has used his pension in order to pay his bills. With unemployment, his pension and savings all exhausted, he came to us for help. John has been looking for work in a variety of places, but for those 50 and over jobs are difficult to find and seem to be going to younger applicants.

John owns his own home with a minimal mortgage. He has no other debt and has stayed current on his bills until now.

Looking for alternative housing or renting would likely be more expensive than staying where he is. With no income source, however, even the small mortgage payment seems insurmountable. John has only a few years before he is eligible for Social Security.

Tom (not his real name) is similar in that he spent his career in a single industry,

during the past year, looking for ways to reinvent their business and grow in the face of tough economic times. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting an SBA loan, winning your first federal contract or learning the ins-and-outs of exporting, the SBA and our resource partners can help get you the information you need.

Why is all of this so important?

Economists agree that small businesses are a big part of the solution to getting our economy moving again and creating jobs that we lost in the recession.

So, if you are thinking about starting or growing a business in 2012, let SBA help you. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no time like the present to have that first conversation with the SBA. Then, celebrate the New Year!

gering cut of $85 million statewide. That total would be on top of previous state cuts that are already putting severe financial pressure on hospitals and other health care providers.

At St. Elizabeth, we would experience a significant decline of at least $2.2 million in Medicaid payments if House Bill 2130 were approved. A cut of this magnitude would greatly hinder our ability to meet the needs of our patients and our community. We would be forced to limit or possibly eliminate some programs that make St. Elizabeth the special hospital that it is. Our community was fortunate that, through our affiliation with the Franciscan Health System, we were able to build this state-ofthe-art hospital. It would be a major setback for our community if we had to scale down some programs and services because of state funding cuts.

Cuts proposed by House Bill 2130 would also have a negative impact on our fragile local economy. St. Elizabeth Hospital is a major employer in Enumclaw. We purchase many goods and services locally. Having a high-quality hospital helps attract businesses and residents to our community.

Across the state and on the Enumclaw Plateau, individuals and communities benefit from a strong network of urban and rural hospitals, like St. Elizabeth, working together to ensure appropriate care for every patient. House Bill 2130 would decimate this network. If the proposed legislation is not rejected during the Legislatureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s special session, then it will likely be on the agenda when the Legislature reconvenes for its regular session in January.

Gov. Gregoire and lawmakers are working hard to find solutions to the state governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budget crisis. Their task is daunting. However, undermining critical access hospitals is not the answer. House Bill 2130 would have consequences far beyond rural communities that rely on critical access hospitals for lifesaving care and essential medical services. Please join me in urging state legislators to defeat House Bill 2130.

DAHLQUIST FROM 7 programs that serve the most vulnerable populations, which are core services in my view, are reduced while programs that are not defined as core services continue to be funded.

The budget proposal being considered would cut in half funding for levy equalization. That is $152 million for school districts that struggle to reach local funding goals due to low property values, low density (rural areas) and areas that have a substantial portion of property owned by state, federal and tribal governments.

Okanogan County, for example, is 77 percent government owned, leaving only 23 percent of private property owners to foot the bill for the entire county’s portion of school system funding. Levy equalization funding bridges that gap.

In the 31st Legislative District every one of our school districts would be substantially impacted by the levy equalization reduction proposal. Enumclaw, Auburn, Puyallup and Sumner school districts would each lose 100 percent of their LEA funding, or $633,630, $3.3 million, $6.1 million and $1 million, respectively.

Meanwhile, agencies and programs that are ineffective and wasteful are being funded in the budget. One example is the Puget Sound Partnership. As a member of the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Committee, we have been delving into the waste in the PSP. The PSP received $671 million in funding, part of which is federal money. Since the agency’s inception in 2007, it still has not defined what a “clean Puget Sound” means. There are no measurable goals that the agency has set or scientific-based research driving its agenda.

Last year, KUOW radio did a four-part series outlining the waste and abuse in the agency. The agency spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on computers that were incompatible with the state system, embroidered fleece jackets, lip balm, meetings at expensive resort locations, and produced a 2.5-minute “Dog Doogity” video about picking up dog poop at a cost of $27,000.

Despite scathing audits conducted by the JLARC and the State Auditor’s office, budget writers continue to fund the duplicate work and waste of PSP at the expense of education, elderly and disabled populations.

We all want a clean and healthy environment; however we already have an agency – the Department of Ecology – that oversees the state’s environmental controls. In fact, the DOE has seen year-over-year growth in its budget while those crafting the budget are decrying the need for higher taxes.

The way I see it, it’s time to get serious about setting our priorities and getting rid of duplicate and ineffective state agencies like the PSP and get back to funding core services. While this is just one example of how we can better prioritize spending, this is the kind of solution we need if we want a sustainable and responsible budget.

The need is urgent!

Rep. Cathy Dahlquist, R-Enumclaw, represents the 31st Legislative District, which takes in Enumclaw, Buckley, Bonney Lake, Sumner and the surrounding areas.

QFC Meat Donations Help the Hungry Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome, nutritious protein in food pantry visitors’ diets. But for many food pantry visitors, meat is something that rarely is put on the table.

Food pantries that serve the hungry often don’t have the resources to provide meat to the people they serve.

However, for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or freshness. Last year, QFC donated 560,000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon. This is part of QFC’s Grocery Rescue program.

“Healthy food is important for everyone, but particularly so for low-income people suffering from illnesses, as well as children and seniors. QFC meat donations enable people to maintain healthier lifestyles and give people the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their families,” says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson.

QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package. This can include beef, poultry, pork, and seafood, as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs.

When meat products no longer meet QFC’s standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated, it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and storage procedures. There are very real cross contamination risks when handling meat. For that reason, we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup. We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline; the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer. All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store.

Practices we follow before donating meat products include: freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the

meat by species.

A Food Lifeline agency that participates in the Grocery Rescue program says, “Thanks for the food you give to those in need. We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can help.”

By donating product that doesn’t meet our selling standards, QFC helped our neighbors and friends in

Western Washington and Oregon feed their families. This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs.

Do you have questions about donations? Need additional info? Want to volunteer at a local food pantry? If so, please contact Ken Banks at 425-4622205.

WALLY FROM 8 last year. And the year before that as well. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d almost think in was a holiday tradition or something.

May I suggest you share the experience with someone you love. After all, love is the most important sentiment of the season, not the gifts. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love that allows you to forsake the real world and, at least for a few hours or days, slip merrily and starry-eyed into the world of romance. And what good is Christmas shopping without a little romance?

So, with your significant someone, share a few chest-

nuts â&#x20AC;&#x153;roasting on an open fireâ&#x20AC;? outside the Fairmont/ Olympic Hotel. You might ride the merry-go-round in Westlake. Or, handin-hand and soul-to-soul, stroll through the Pike Place Market. Always leave enough time to snuggle in the rear booth of some secluded, intimate lounge away from the hustle and bustle outside. Share a light kiss or two while Bing Crosby croons â&#x20AC;&#x153;White Christmas.â&#x20AC;?

Alas, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a hopelessly incurable romantic. And nothing inspires such pathetic dreamers like the holiday season.

Cheers, everyone! Have a merry Christmas!

The White River High girls will go in search of another South Puget Sound League 2A victory Friday when they travel to Eatonville. It will be the final league contest of 2011 for the Hornets, who take on Mount Rainier Dec. 22 and take part in a Yakima tournament Dec. 29 and 30.

Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game on the Cruisersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; court will be the fourth league outing for the Hornet girls, the defending SPSL 2A champions. Games Tuesday at Washington and Friday against Steilacoom could not be reported here.

The Hornets had little trouble winning their SPSL 2A season opener Dec. 6, whipping the outmatched Clover Park Warriors 65-23.

The easy win, played on the Hornetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home court, pushed White Riverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall mark to 3-0.

The game didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start with a bang, as neither

team scored for nearly four minutes. The Hornets quickly rattled off nine points and built a 9-4 advantage by the end of the period.

The second quarter made all the difference, with White River pouring in 22 points to take a commanding halftime lead of 31-7. Cassidy France scored 10 points during the period to lead the charge and Kennedy Hobert added seven.

Freshman starter Amanda Lance dropped in three 3-point bombs in the third quarter as the Hornets pushed their lead to 30 points and then 40.

Hobert added 10 points in the second half and finished with a game-high 19. France chipped in with 14 and Lance contributed 12.

In the battle between the two top Class 3A wrestling teams in the state, Enumclaw High retained its status as No. 1 with a 39-36 victory over Bonney Lake Dec. 7.

The defending 3A champion Hornets threw everything but the kitchen sink at the No. 2-ranked Panthers and the Panthers returned the favor in the South Puget Sound League 3A season opener. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cole (Snider) being hurt, we had to bump everyone up,â&#x20AC;? EHS coach Lee Reichert said of his 138 pounder who was injured during the Dec. 3 White River Classic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were willing to do anything for the team, our 126 went to 132, 132 to 138. It was the only way we could get it done. We figured it would be close. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both teams wrestled tough,â&#x20AC;? he continued. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew it would be especially tough this early in the season. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud of the kids. We wrestled tough.â&#x20AC;?

The match started at 182 pounds with Panther Evan Dorsey racking up a pair of late match takedowns for an 8-3 decision over Kelyn Wallin.

Enumclawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s T.J. Cormier, Colten Malek and Chris Williams slammed together three

EHS Wrestling straight pins â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at 58, 26 and 18 seconds, respectively â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to give the Hornets a quick 18-3 lead.

Bonney Lake jumped back into the contest with Brandon Cunninghamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 8-4 victory over Hunter Haney at 106 pounds. Colton Tracy then pulled the Panthers within six with a pin at 113.

EHSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tyke Reid answered with a pin at 119.

Bonney Lakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Andrew Cunningham and Caid Caveness registered back-to-back pins at 126 and 132 to tie the match at 24.

Travis Reano bumped up to 138 pounds for the Hornets and pinned his Panther opponent to put EHS up for good.

Lucas Somera stretched the Hornetsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lead wih a pin at 145 and teammate Justin Mitchell earned a 6-1 decision at 152.

Jeremy Sabin picked up a pin at 160 to pull the Panthers within nine and Jake Lueders scored the final fall of the night to make it a three-point contest in the end.

The victory kept EHSâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s league win streak alive at 38. The Hornets were at Sedro Woolley Saturday; results were not available at press time, for results go to www.courierherald.com.

The powerhouse Enumclaw High gymnastics squad topped a four-team field Dec. 7, scoring an impressive 173.55 team points.

Competing at Auburn Mountainview, the Hornets defeated the host Lions, Kentlake and Auburn Riverside.

In sweeping to the victory, EHS had the top four allaround performers. Olivia Bannerot was the class of the field, followed by Molly Mattheis, Michelle McKinlay and Madison Ward.

While taking the all-around crown, Bannerot won three of the four events. She was tops in the floor exercise with a 9.85, won the bars with an 8.15 and took the vault with a score of 9.3. Ward was second on the beam with a 9.12.

The Hornets, who were just a half-step away from a state Class 3A/2A title a season ago, had opened the year Nov. 30 with a four-team meet at Auburn Riverside.

With Bannerot limited to the uneven bars, EHS placed second to Emerald Ridge. Mattheis placed second in the all-around and Emily Berte was fifth.

The teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next action comes tonight, Wednesday, with a meet at Auburn High School.

Balanced attack puts EHS in win column

By Kevin Hanson Editor

The Enumclaw High girls made their way into the victory column the evening of Dec. 7, whipping Franklin Pierce 44-28 in nonleague basketball action.

It was the first win in three outings for the Hornets, who continue their nonleague schedule Friday by hosting Capital.

Monday, the Hornet girls will host North Thurston. Both games begin at 7 p.m.

The team played one game earlier this

EHS Girls Basketball week, hosting Stadium of Tacoma. Results came too late to be included here.

Dec. 7, Enumclaw did its damage early, sprinting to a 16-2 advantage after just eight minutes of play against the Cardinals, who complete in the Class 2A ranks. The Hornets held their own the rest of the way, managing a slight 11-10 advantage in the second period and struggling through a ragged third frame in which the teams combined for only six points.

EHS received scoring from nine players.

Leading the balanced attack was Hannah Calvert, who scored 10 points. Julia Myers added nine points and Fallon Hall chipped in with eight.

Those wishing to contribute to the Vine Maple Place efforts can stop by 31407 state Route 169 in Black Diamond to pick up a gift-wrapped piece of coal and make a donation.

White River Highâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s France named league soccer MVP

560087

Black Diamondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Palmer Coking Coal Company has made a tradition of selling gift-wrapped lumps of coal to raise funds for Vine Maple Place.

The nonprofit organization, based in Maple Valley, exists to help homeless families with children develop self-sufficiency by providing transitional housing and support services.

In traditional English folklore, a lump of coal was left in the stocking hung over the fireplace of those whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d been naughty the previous year. The tradition of a lump of coal may date back to Italy. On the evening of the day after Christmas children would be visited by a good witch named Strega Buffana who flew around Italy on a broom and left treats for good children, but lumps of coal for naughty children.

In Denmark, children put a shoe out on Christmas night with good children receiving chocolate and naughty children getting coal. The Scottish New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tradition holds that if a tall dark stranger comes through your door carrying a lump of coal, it is said to be good luck.

Another tradition claims the lump of coal is the only fuel to warm eternity for those who have misbehaved.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not sure if our story about the Bennest case will be used in his defense or in defense of the act, but the case itself raises some interesting questions.

The Ninth Circuit ruled the Stolen Valor Act unconstitutional because lying is protected speech and has been considered such in precedent after precedent.

Certain potentially dangerous lies â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like yelling fire in a theater â&#x20AC;&#x201C; are not protected speech, but in general, you absolutely have a right

STIFF PERSON SYNDROME Although it is a very rare condition, there is merit in mentioning â&#x20AC;&#x153;stiff person syndromeâ&#x20AC;? (a.k.a. MoerschWoltmann syndrome) in the hope that it may provide some answers to those affected. This disease of the nervous system, which is more common among women, manifests itself in progressively severe muscle stiffness in the spine and lower extremities.

There is also evidence that stiff person syndrome is an autoimmune disorder and that patients often suffer from other autoimmune diseases.

Most patients who develop the condition experience painful episodes of muscle spasms in the arms and legs when they are startled, touched, upset, or anxious. Falling during these spasms is common. Physical and occupational therapy are critical to the recovery of patients under treatment.

Of course, you neednâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be suffering from something as debilitating and dramatic as stiff-person syndrome to benefit from physical therapy.

We can provide the handson manual therapy that you need to treat a variety of problems, from something rare like Moersch-Woltmann syndrome to something much more common, like a sports injury or even just an on-thejob accident. And remember, you have the right to choose your physical therapy facility.

Choose the one that can treat you best. Call 253-826-8520 or 360-802-6756 today for an appointment. Our addresses are 21525 Highway 410, Suite B, Bonney Lake and 2776 Griffin Ave., Enumclaw.

Physical therapy with a personal touch.

P.S. Medical therapy for stiff person syndrome may make patients feel weak, which physical therapy can help overcome.

to fib in the United States, even about a military past, apparently.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an interesting philosophical argument though: should Congress be able to criminalize lying about oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military service and/ or receiving awards?

The idea behind the law is that people lying about awards demeans those who get them and demoralizes the troops. The Ninth Circuit, rightfully, stated that is ridiculous, adding that the troops do not undertake risky mission in hopes of winning an award.

The majority, one of whom was appointed by President George H.W. Bush and one appointed by President George W. Bush (the dissent was written by a judge appointed by President George W. Bush), ruled that while â&#x20AC;&#x153;we have no doubt society would be better off if Alvarez would stop spreading worthless, ridiculous, and offensive untruths,â&#x20AC;? the government has not shown any reason to infringe on the First Amendment.

Basically, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the â&#x20AC;&#x153;you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to like it, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what freedom looks likeâ&#x20AC;? argument.

I tend to agree.

But I do think there should be some sort of other provision for lies told in a campaign setting. It seems to me that for the electoral process to work, we have to be able to choose between two candidates and if one is lying, we cannot make an informed

and/or proper decision.

In Washington, for example, we have laws against candidate mailings containing false or misleading statements. In fact, during last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highly contentious 31st District State Senate race between former Sumner councilman Matt Richardson and Sen. Pam Roach, Roach won a case she brought against Richardson for false statements about sanctions levied against Roach by the Republican Caucus.

The judge said a person seeking elected office has a â&#x20AC;&#x153;higher dutyâ&#x20AC;? than an ordinary citizen to make sure statements in the voter pamphlet are accurate.

Which is totally a law I can get behind. Shoot, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s times Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to be able to charge some of our regular letter-writers with lying about things or distorting facts.

I am all for being able to lie but doing so in a campaign is very different.

But the Stolen Valor Act doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deal with campaigns; simply stating that you have a medal is now illegal so it will be interesting to see how the Supreme Court â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one of the most conservative weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had in decades â&#x20AC;&#x201C; rules on the Alvarez case.

The case is scheduled to get to the Supreme Court next spring. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll let you know how it turns out.

Unless Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m lying, of course. Which at least for now is still legal.

Yeah, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the ticketâ&#x20AC;Ś
