A twist to the annual family Santa photo ‘Who’ said hair can’t be turned into a Christmas tree?

Starling Montieth told her younger sister that there was something on her present and brushed it off as they stood in line to get photographed with Santa with their siblings and mom. The present Starling tidied up was attached to her sister’s head.

Just like a lot of families, 10-year-old Starling and her sisters have made a tradition of getting their picture taken with St. Nick. They just do it with their hair done up in a Cindy Lou Who style, complete with sparkling holiday decorations.

The tradition includes festively styling three of four daughters’ hair. The youngest sibling is 1 and their older brother join in for the photo but skip the up ‘dos, said mom Rebecca Montieth.

“We have to have a Santa picture,” she said.

Ben Stephens won the grand prize of the Admiral Theatre’s Sounds of the Season with an old-school beat box performance.

Stephens performed with more than a dozen other acts on Dec. 16 at the Admiral Theatre. It was the 12th year the production played its talent show during the holidays.

“It was the most original thing I saw all night. And what a huge audience response,” said Sunny Wheeler, talent judge, Admiral Theatre supporter and parks board member.

The music student from Olympic College used a recording machine and his voice to create a “one man symphony” layered into an improvised hip-hop track.

Beat boxing is a vocal percussion that was popular in the 1980s and early 1990s and grew out of cities as kids found ways to make music when they couldn’t afford instruments, Stephens said.

With nine years of beat boxing under him, Stephens last week used a looping machine to sample his voice then layered one sound on top of the other. The result was a track that Stephens’ describes as a “one-man symphony,” a single voice mimicking 12 to 15 different tones at once.

Stephens said his unique style of beat box comes from looping the tracks freestyle.

“Each song is created on the spot and never the same twice.

I may throw stuff in on the spot, depending on my mood,” said Stephens.

He said that the “unexpected” is his favorite aspect of the art form.

Bremerton police have lead foot Local cops burn gas as much as twice the rate of larger forces

BY JJ SWANSON JSWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

The Bremerton Police Department has a per-vehicle gas budget nearly double what Seattle spends and $1,500 more per car than the State police budget for their eight districts.

Bremerton police say cite inefficient patrol cars and officials pose that errors in officer reporting are possible causes.

The proposed fuel allowance for Bremerton police for 2012 is budgeted at $228,086.

With 38 total vehicles in the fleet, that is a yearly average of $6,002 per vehicle.

Washington State Patrol, covering eight districts, budgets about $4,500 per vehicle.

The Seattle police spend an average of $3,300 per vehicle in its five precincts.

Cutting down to the state police per-vehicle budget would return $53,789.50 a year to the city’s operations budget. “Of course we’d love to get it down closer to what they do,� said Mayor Patty Lent. “We are encouraging officers to become more efficient with gas usage.�

Lent sent a 2012 budget to the Bremerton City Council that bounced back and forth as councilmembers pushed

police Captain Tom Wolfe. “I couldn’t even begin to guess how they arrive at $6,000 per vehicle. I say, I need cars and I need gasoline to do our mission. As far as what it costs, [the city] estimates it,� said Wolfe.

The Public Works & Utilities Department of Bremerton calculates the police fleet’s gas budget every year based on the previous year’s consumption and projected price of gasoline for the upcoming year, according to Jim Orton, interim public works director.

In 2006, the city briefly considered switching police cars to natural gas, a cleaner burning and more efficient fuel. The plan included setting up a compressor at the Bremerton Wastewater Treatment Plant to convert methane into natural gas.

However, the department balked at the initial costs to set up the compressor and retrofit patrol vehicles. “The savings against what it would cost to put the infrastructure in, it wasn’t economically feasible,� said Orton.

The director explained that the project has been sidelined indefinitely until the city can find more revenue for special projects.

OLD VEHICLES IN THE FLEET Bremerton police serve a population of 37,000 people with a jurisdiction of 26 square miles. The nature of their work, which is aroundthe-clock and emergency calls, burns a lot of fuel, according to Wolfe.

In addition, 30 patrol vehicles are shared by officers over multiple shifts. Backto-back shift work can wear down the engine, decreasing overall fuel economy, Wolf said. “Our fleet will always have cars in them that are not as gas efficient because of their age and mileage,� said Wolfe.

Bremerton police officers wear a car out in about two and half years. According to Orton, two patrol cars are up for replacement in 2012.

NTSB, ban all cell phone use while driving Local policing agencies show declines in ticketing for phone use

BY KRISTIN OKINAKA KOKINAKA@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Unlike some of his friends, Brett Donald never texts while he drives. But, sometimes he does answer his cellphone while he’s on the go, and he’s not doing it hands free. “I try not to, but sometimes you can’t avoid it,� said Donald, 22, of Bremerton last week.

Although Washington state law prohibits talking on a cellphone while driving — it’s a primary traffic offense, with exceptions such as using a headset or Bluetooth device or having the phone on speaker mode and holding it to the mouth rather than to the ear.

However, in the eyes of The National Transportation and Safety Board, those exceptions are not good enough.

Last Tuesday, the NTSB called for a nationwide ban on a person’s use of personal electronic devices — like cellphones — while driving.

The recommendation for states to ban all nonemergency cellphone use by drivers stems from recent “distraction accidents� involving deaths that the NTSB has investigated. The most recent situation involved an August 2010 crash in which a pickup truck hit a semi in Gray Summit, Mo. The result was two deaths and 38 people injured.

The NTSB investigation revealed that the pickup driver sent and received 11 text messages in the 11 minutes

before the crash.

Donald said incidents like that can be avoided. Don’t text and drive. “It’s unnecessary that it shouldn’t happen,� he said.

Even though Kitsap drivers know they should not be gabbing on the phone while in the car, a state law hasn’t stopped many and Donald doesn’t think NTSB’s recommendation will do any better. “It’s more habit than anything,� Donald said. “We’re a high speed nation.�

The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office does not keep data on whether or not the cause of a car crash is phone or text related, but “it does happen,� said deputy Scott Wilson, spokesman for the sheriff’s office.

In the first nine months of 2011, 371 drivers were ticketed by the county for talking on cellphones and 11 others were ticketed for texting while driving, said Wilson. “Those are significant numbers,� he said.

And although the year isn’t over, those numbers are an increase from the year before.

In the 2010 calendar year, 283 drivers were ticketed for cellphone talking and nine for texting by sheriff’s deputies.

Whether or not added restrictions to the state’s cellphone law will decrease numbers, it cannot be determined. The sheriff’s office doesn’t take a stance when other agencies propose recommendations, it merely enforces the law when it has

been passed, said Wilson.

Thomas Neil, of Chico, thinks that other “pressing things� can be more distracting for drivers than talking on a cellphone, giving the examples of changing the radio dial or eating. He doesn’t think the state should adopt NTSB’s recommendation. “It’s like trying to stop people from driving,� said Neil, 60. “I don’t think rules have stopped people from driving.�

Neil is one of those drivers who sometimes talks on his cellphone while driving and that he keeps his eyes out for cops.

Talking on a cellphone became a primary offense for drivers, along with texting, in 2010. That year, Washington State Patrol issued 839 tickets for talking on their cellphone and 965 verbal warnings for the same and 52 drivers were ticketed and 68 were given a verbal warning for texting. in the district that includes Kitsap County, said Dan Coon, a spokesman for the state patrol.

Cellphone and texting tickets and warnings have decreased through the first 11 months of 2011, according to the state patrol. Troopers wrote 536 tickets and gave 577 verbal warnings for talking on phones and only 29 tickets and 41 verbal warnings for driving while texting.

The decrease in cellphonerelated ticketing could result from multiple factors. “It could be that people are obeying the law,� said Coon. “It could be as simple as that.�

The state patrol doesn’t

State law allows for drivers to make 9-1-1 calls to report emergency incidents they may witness while on the road.

Kelly Nantel, a spokeswoman for NTSB, said while last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s announcement is a recommendation, it would be up to each state to develop jurisdiction including making emergency calls exempt.

Richard Kirton, director of CENCOM, the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s central communications, said 13,649 total calls were received through 9-1-1 lines last month. Of that, 3,545 were from landlines, 9,188 from cellphones and 916 from voice over Internet protocol devices.

If a law prohibited all drivers from cellphone use under all circumstances, Kirton said there could be big delays between when an accident occurs and when CENCOM

However, Kirton said not all calls are from drivers. But if drivers witnessing something like a timely crime or a drunk driver, safety always needs to be taken into consideration for everyone. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The first priority for callers and the general public is that they do so from a position of safety,â&#x20AC;? said Kirton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a call you can make, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great, pull over and stop driving.â&#x20AC;?

Kirton isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only one emphasizing safety, many in the community agree.

Bus commuter and Bremerton resident Ellarie Briscoe said two hands on the wheel is always emphasized in drivers education and favors driving responsibly while using hands-free devices.

Clearer signs?

IN OUR OPINION

How can it be made more clear to the county commissioners that Kitsap County cannot afford to continue trying to regulate its so-called “sexspresso” stands.

The September recommendation by the Kitsap County Planning Commission that the women working in the stands be corralled under the county’s lewd conduct ordinance failed the intellectual test when pressed up against the First Amendment – and the treat of lawsuits.

Now, in lieu of controlling the dress and attitudes of local coffee entrepreneurs, the commissioners seek to regulate bikini barista stands’ signage. Officials seem to find that the nude silhouettes of dancing girls advertising suggestively named coffee stands are not clear enough warnings that the barista may be wearing a g-string and pasties.

County leaders continue with their excuses with 1950’s era fearmongering that an unsuspecting family might mistakenly drive up to a stand, set off the beaten path, and be traumatized by a barista in a g-string and pasties while ordering a triple non-fat mocha half-cafe half-decafe.

County leaders, and the few prudes pressing them to act as morality police, would do well to accept that Bremerton, and the surrounding county area, is the kind of place where some citizens like a little skin with their coffee drinks. Spend that energy on the 2013 budget.

Local leaders love the Navy for its payroll spent in local stores and on local real estate. They get in line for millions of dollars given distributed in of taxes, but quickly shirk the real culture that comes with it when working class shipyard workers and enlisted sailor’s like a little more racy life than those in Poulsbo or Bainbridge might care for.

We implore county commissioners to lead well and simply quit this regulation business before they loose their shirts on it.

Missing from the announcement of KPS Health Plans’ abandonment of the individual health insurance plan market, is that before another carrier will write you, you will have to pass the litmus of screening by filling out a Standard Health Questionnaire. It doesn’t matter how many years you have been on the plan, if you amass too many points due to preexisting conditions, you will be shunted into the expensive high risk pool.

The Legislature has made provision for enrollees on group plans to be able to move to coverage on an individual plan without being screened, provided they have had 24 months of continuous coverage and experience an event that qualifies them for COBRA coverage. Be on the Washington State Basic Health plan for 24 continuous months and you qualify.

A solution would be a short amendment to the law establishing exemptions listed above, to include in the cohort of exemptees, those enrollees in individual Health Insurer’s plans, when that insurer has abandoned the Individual market, who were enrolled for at least 24 continuous months and submit an application within 90 days of dis-enrollment. To help our neighbors, this law must be passed with an emergency clause this session. There are no lobbyists pushing for passage, only the consciences of our legislative delegation, so it’s up to us to make the calls. Asking the insurance commissioner to weigh in could help.

Matt Ryan Bremerton

Follow city’s lead The City of Bremerton and the Bremerton Parks and Recreation Board deserve a very big thank you and appreciation from the citizens of Kitsap County. During these difficult economic times, They have shown great patriotism and dedication in assisting with the development and planning of the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial. Bremerton, and

indeed all of West Puget Sound, greatly supports our nation’s war on terror by hosting a myriad of military bases and housing the men and women who protect us and bring the fight to the enemy.

In the face of employee layoffs and service cutbacks, you have shown your support, leadership and great faith in our community and our nation.

I believe that the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial will truly reflect the pride and respect it is due.

The current Kitsap 9/11 Memorial Committee should take note of how the City of Bremerton has stepped up to rescue them from their buffoonery and inept management of this important memorial. From the soiling of the American flag during the delivery of the beams, the difficulty in securing an appropriate location, the resignation of some committee members over finances and the need to sell T-shirts, trinkets and souvenirs for funding an unnecessarily grandiose design, you have exhibited poor and embarrassing judgment.

Our fellow countrymen who perished on September 11th and future Americans deserve a memorial that is respectful, appropriate, and solemn.

Bill Minks Seabeck

Building the future A number of highly successful and wealthy millionaires in the country have offered to improve the U.S. in different ways financially.

If they truly want to improve the economy, create millions of joss and improve the U.S., how about joining together to build new bridges and highways all over the nation.

There is no better way to improve the county, stimulate the economy. put millions of dollars to work and make millions of people happy.

In appreciation, our country could dedicate each and every bridge and highway to the men and women who donate their time, money and devotion to this worthy cause.

County wants ‘clearly’ marked bikini espresso stands

BY JJ SWANSON JSWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Local baristas remain free to continue serving up coffee and pasties.

Kitsap County Board of Commissioners decided not to pursue an ordinance which sought to regulate what so-called bikini baristas can wear while serving coffee drinks at roadside stands.

Instead, the BOCC proposes better signage for coffee stands employing scantily clad workers. The signs

would explain, or depending on the point of view, warn, customers of what they will see during the exchange.

The new plan is to help the public avoid what they find distasteful rather than try to banish it, according to Kitsap County Commissioner Robert Gelder.

The commissioners’ decision to back off the county lewd conduct ordinance after a briefing where the board learned that regulating what the women can and cannot wear while working could

violate first amendment rights, specifically freedom of expression.

“The problem seemed to be more about people inadvertently driving in without realizing what these stands are about. The board advised us to focus on this,” said Shelley Kneip, deputy prosecuting attorney for the county.

“I’ve never seen anyone surprised when they pull up to the window,” said Fantasy Espresso barista Alexandra Scott.

A barista hands over a coffee drink on Wheaton Way Tuesday. County commissioners may require more descriptive signage as means to avoid accidental visits.

Scott said that most people get what the coffee stands are about but that sometimes outof-towners or people from Seattle pull up mistakenly to her Wheaton Way stand.

“There’s a silhouette of a stripper on our sign,” Scott said.

According to Kneip, the county prosecutor’s office had earlier received three letters from attorneys which suggested that espresso stand owners would sue the county if they chose to enforce an unconstitutional ordinance.

The BOCC will focus on “consumer awareness” as a solution to the bikini barista problem during a January

meeting. They will also discuss adult entertainment licensing and try to more accurately define “lewd conduct.”

Two espresso stands in Gorst and one in East Bremerton currently have fencing to shield view of the scantily-dressed baristas from the street.

However, Gelder explained that the stand on Waaga Way has a fence which stands lower than one of the windows, allowing partial views.

There are no regulations on fencing and Gelder proposes working with the owners directly to create more overt consumer signs

“It is not a business for everyone, so consumers should be aware well in advance not to engage in that business if that’s not what they want,” said Gelder.

Scott explained that her stand gets constant business from locals including women, couples, priests, and even Bremerton police.

“We’re like any other business in town with regulars that we’re happy to see. Of course, sometimes someone will ask us to do more than serve coffee, but we have voice and video surveillance and anyone doing that would be let go,” said Scott.

Rich Rein, salesman at the Eastside Auto Wrecking Center next door to Fantasy Espresso said that business has been about the same since the stand arrived.

“They ought to just let them be,” said Rein. “People got to have a job. Why shut the little man down?”

Gelder assured that the board is not looking to drive anyone out of business, but rather looking for a way to appease public concerns.

The controversy has taken up “quite a bit” of county resources, according to both Gelder and Kneip.

“Our goal... is to have this issue dealt with by February,” said Gelder.

HIV/AIDS Foundation to serve despite cuts Continued support from community and other organizations will be key

BY KRISTIN OKINAKA KOKINAKA@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Ann Daniels loaded the last full bag into her car Monday in preparation for her route delivering food to some Kitsap County HIV/ AIDS Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clients.

Just before she left, Stephanie Robinson, the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s food program coordinator, asked her if sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d also be interested in volunteering with clerical work at the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Silverdale office.

Because of state cuts, Kitsap County Health District isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to fully fund the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s food delivery program â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and youth program â&#x20AC;&#x201D; in 2012. The food program already stopped operating on a weekly schedule two months ago and Robinson was looking for ways to retain their volunteer drivers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; they just may not be driving around the county as often.

Ingredients for a holiday meal were distributed to lowincome foundation clients that were referred to by the health district through help of the Bremerton Foodline.

Food deliveries went out for Thanksgiving as well.

Kim McKoy, the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s executive director, said Tuesday that they are not abandoning those in need of their help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just not continuing it in the way that it was,â&#x20AC;? she said.

McKoy said in addition to the two holiday food deliveries that she plans to continue next year, the foundation will fully stock a pantry at the office for clients to drop by and pick up non-perishable food and essential toiletry and household items that canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be bought with food stamps.

The foundation has always had a food pantry but they plan to â&#x20AC;&#x153;liven it up,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The foundation has yet to figure out how to continue supporting those without transportation or are homebound. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see how we can rise up to that need,â&#x20AC;? McKoy said.

Sally McAllaster, who has been volunteering with the

foundation for several years, said as a driver delivering groceries to clients on a weekly basis, she got to know some of them and formed personal relationships. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some came to the door and were grateful but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get to know them.

Others wanted to chat,â&#x20AC;? said McAllaster.

One man calls her â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sunshine.â&#x20AC;?

Food program support from the county healthy district was $9,228 a year, according to McKoy. From the beginning of the year through the end of June, the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth program received $13,776 from the health district. The foundation will continue to receive $10,000 for the time frame of July through June 2012.

Despite the cuts from the state level to the health district that affect the foundation, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t plan on eliminating the youth program, which includes a weekly curriculum-based drop-in center, said McKoy. More than 300 youths participated in the youth programs in the first 11 months of this year.

Just like changing the way they may be helping clients who receive food, youths will continue to be served but the money for the program will have to come elsewhere, such as through other partnerships or fundraising. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going anywhere.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re keeping it going,â&#x20AC;?

McKoy said.

Through November of this year, the foundation received more than 1,400 hours of volunteer help for various services and programs. McCoy said she is grateful for the continual support from community members and other organizations and that the means to continue the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s programs will keep going with their help.

Robinson said the foundation purchased food for 10 families but they were able

TWIST CONTINUED FROM A1

The three girls â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and their hair â&#x20AC;&#x201D; went to school earlier in the day to Jackson Park Elementary School.

Montieth said she got a call from a school administrator asking for permission to take a photo of her daughters for the school yearbook.

The school officials also got a little grinch and said to never send the girls to school like that again. The stylized up-do seemed to be a distraction, she said.

Starlingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hair, the longest of the girls, falls just above her waist when down.

The girls thought about

age ratings.

Bremerton Police Chief Craig Rogers favors the Chevy Caprice, according to Wolfe.

Orton explained that Bremerton is unlikely to consider any hybrid models because officers have a minimum size requirement for their missions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;How does the equipment fit into the car, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most important thing, and most

what they were going to ask for Christmas as they waited to see Santa.

Emma Montieth, 6, said she wanted a live Bronco.

Starling said she wanted â&#x20AC;&#x153;more dance classes.â&#x20AC;?

Currently she takes ballet six times a week.

And although Zan, who played the nutcracker in a recent show, was not as thrilled as his younger sisters to get a Seussian family portrait taken, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t complain too much. If it were up to him, he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be there to take the photo year after year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel dragged here, very much so,â&#x20AC;? he said.

But the Santa photo of her children, is what his mother wants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is my Christmas present from my kids,â&#x20AC;?

Montieth said.

of our officers are 6 feet tall.

Once we put in the prisoner containment system, weapons, radios, hybrids are way too small,â&#x20AC;? said Orton.

ERRORS IN ODOMETER REPORTS In addition to fuel inefficient vehicles, the city reported inconsistencies in a recent evaluation of Bremerton police gas mileage odometer readings.

According to Gary Nystul, Bremerton city auditor, gas mileage is reported through a card lock. The officer punches in a code for his vehicle and records the mileage manually from the odometer reading. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some folks have difficulty putting in the right numbers,â&#x20AC;? said Nystul. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are working to encourage those folks to be more accurate.â&#x20AC;?

According to Lent, the mayorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office has seen Nystulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s audit of the police department as well as all other Public Works vehicles.

Police, fire, and a few oncall public works vehicles are

just have to stop the recording. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll make your palms sweaty,â&#x20AC;? said Stephens.

Emcee Greg Bennick explained that Stephens â&#x20AC;&#x153;enchanted â&#x20AC;? fellow competitors backstage.

Performers crowded near the stage curtain to get a better look at Stephensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unusual act, he said.

Stephens studies music at Olympic College. He also teaches looping and beat boxing online

Bremerton police have ruled out changes like switching natural gas or using hybrids. Instead, they are opting for simple efforts toward fuel consciousness such as increasing foot patrols and not leaving cars idling, according to Wolfe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time in the officerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s day to put the car in park and do a foot beat, we encourage that. Park the car and ride a bike if they are bike certified,â&#x20AC;? Wolfe said.

Seattle police has been steadily increasing their foot and bike patrols for several years resulting in appreciable

reductions to their gas budget, according to spokesperson Chris Wiley.

But Lent explained that bicycle patrols can only go so far in Bremerton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 26 square miles is not as condensed as Seattle where they can use bicycles for patrol,â&#x20AC;? said Lent.

Wolfe is also encouraging his officers not to leave cars running when they are on patrol. Updated electrical systems in the cars are helping officers run their work off of battery power rather than fuel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Several generations ago, you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dare shut the car off because your computer would shut off with it and you would lose everything you were working on,â&#x20AC;? said Wolfe.

However, in the winter months, there are additional safety concerns when it comes to not idling on patrol.

For example, cold weather causes the windshield to fog over if the heater is not on.

The heater runs on fuel, not battery, he said.

Wolf said if the patrol offi-

cer is called on and he has to defrost his window before responding, it could significantly lengthen his response time, which is unacceptable.

Seattle police have just started to install Idle-Right systems into their patrol vehicles for this very reason.

The system allows officers to turn their engines off at the scene and use only battery power. When voltage drops below a certain level, the system automatically restarts the engine and recharges the battery.

The Seattle Police Department estimated that they have reduced 80 gallons of fuel per patrol vehicle with use of anti-idling technology.

Over the whole fleet this is a savings of $60,000.

But change could be a slower process in Bremerton. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, gas prices are high, but it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make sense to change a fleet to smart cars or install all new technology,â&#x20AC;? said Wolfe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a knee jerk reaction like that, we might look back and think that really wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a good idea.â&#x20AC;?

through YouTube videos.

Stephens said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had about 90,000 views.

Given his musicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history and approach to sound, Stephens said he never thought he would win the Sounds of the Season competition against more traditional recital type acts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every time I heard another 5-year-old ballet prodigy getting â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;awwsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; from the audience, I thought, oh man. But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just here to do my thing,â&#x20AC;?

Stephens said.

Other performers in this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show included the newly-crowned Miss

West Sound Hannah Price, 2009 Port Orchard Idol winner Christine Salazar and 11-year old Paige Lawson fresh from her recent performance for South African Archbishop Desmund Tutu.

Judges Wheeler, Lynnea Tweed, and David Nelson were asked to evaluate each performer based on quality, originality, overall appeal, and audience response. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All the performers have come so far, and came here tonight stage-ready.

But he had that sound.

Everybody just loved it,â&#x20AC;?

said Nita Hartley, development director for the theatre.

Second place went to Salazar for a vocal and guitar performance of her original song â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stay with Me.â&#x20AC;?

Third place went to The Northwest School of Dance featuring JPB Ballet for their dance â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ghosts of Christmas Past.â&#x20AC;?

All winners received a trophy and Stephens received the grand prize of $500.

Stephens said he would use the prize money to buy presents for family.

Lent explained that the office wants to do a complete evaluation of take-home vehicles and â&#x20AC;&#x153;how these cars are being used.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve asked operators to be more specific in their reports,â&#x20AC;? said Lent.

Mountain View adapts to new schedule Discussions on changes to the restructuring plan schedule for 2012-2013 will continue

BY KRISTIN OKINAKA KOKINAKA@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Last school year Luke Grunberg, a math teacher at Mountain View Middle School, had 50 minutes of class time a day to teach his students. This school year — due to the school’s restructuring — he has 98 minutes.

“I love it. It’s allowed us additional time to teach the curriculum, which was not designed for 50 minutes,” said Grunberg last Wednesday.

Because students at Bremerton School District’s only middle school — which is a Title I school meaning it has a large low-income population — failed to meet state minimums for reading and math multiple years in a row, was required to submit a school restructuring plan to the state for approval and implement it during the 20112012 school year.

The plan includes a new schedule at the middle school, which creates longer class times for all students in math and language arts. It’s done by blocking two periods together while the other classes remain at one period.

The schedule also allows a period of time for students to take an elective class such as orchestra or band, but if a student is struggling in math or reading, the student will take a remedial class rather than an elective.

Administrators and parents note that the new schedule helps provide more lessons in the areas — math and reading — that students’ state scores showed they were struggling in, but the fact that not all students can now take an elective class is a concern for some.

“It’s a work in progress. There’s opportunity to improve,” said Ivaly Alexander. Her daughter is in eighth grade at Mountain View.

Alexander said the new schedule is “good” in the sense that there is now time to deliver the curriculum and explore additional activities but that she and some other parents think it is also important for all students to be able to take an elective class.

“My advocacy is for every child to have an elective. It’s part of a well-rounded education,” she said. “Often times a reason to stay in school is because of the elective. It’s

exploratory time.”

Last school year, every student at Mountain View was able to take an elective class. But, because class time in math and language arts were shorter than they are this year, an extra period was inserted into the schedule for struggling students to get additional help. For students who were testing to grade level and didn’t need extra help, they were in an enrichment class, said principal Michaeleen Gelhaus.

“Nothing’s perfect but we always have the children and parents first in our mind,” said Gelhaus.

There are 927 students at the middle school and 230 of them are not taking an elective. Instead they are in the extra support class. Gelhaus said parents have the option to opt their child out of the extra reading and math help so an elective can be taken.

Fewer than 30 students’ parents have signed waivers allowing them to opt out of the support class. At the school, about 61 percent of students are on free or reduced lunch.

The district was notified by the state at the start of last school year that Mountain View had failed Adequate

Yearly Progress, a rating of the Bush era No Child Left Behind Act, for the seventh consecutive year. Adequate Yearly Progress is the state’s system to measure schools and districts’ achievement in math and reading as required by no Child Left Behind.

Many Bremerton School Board meetings discussed the restructuring plan as well as public meetings with parents, faculty and staff last year.

Another scheduling option then considered included meshing language arts and social studies together in one period, which would free up a period for all students to be able to take an elective, but some teachers were concerned that the social studies portion would get lost in the mix.

Alexander and another parent, Carrie Bassett, expressed at a recent school board meeting that they thought the schedule that was agreed upon was one where all students would be given an opportunity to take an elective. They added that they feel a disconnect in communication from the district level.

School board member Scott Rahm said it was his understanding that not all students would have an elective class this school year.

Not speaking for the entire board, he said the primary focus of restructuring is to bring students below or not at the state requirements, to

“It’s always an ongoing process to communicate better,” Rahm said. “If you’re making a major shift, there are going to be issues.”

Although having more time for math and language arts is being received positively by many teachers and parents, there are still some issues with the scheduling, according to some — and it’s not merely the fact that all students are not enrolled in an elective. It’s the effects of not all students taking an

elective class.

Gelhaus said there are some elective classes with fewer students enrolled in them than last school year.

It isn’t to the point where she has had to combine any elective classes together or eliminate them, but it is something that will have to be looked at. Another factor that some of the electives, like choir, may have fewer students is because a leadership class and a world drums class were new electives added to the list this school year.

No major changes will be made to Mountain View this

school year.

Any tweaks that would be made for the second semester would be minor, said district spokeswoman Patty Glaser.

Linda Sullivan-Dudzic, the district’s special programs director, said the district will be discussing with the middle school where changes in the schedule need to be made next school year.

Having an elective for all won’t be put on the backburner.

“That would be the goal,” Sullivan-Dudzic said. “In order to do that, we have some work to do.”

Around February or March, the district will have meetings for the community to discuss any changes and possible new sample schedules, Sullivan-Dudzic said.

Bremerton High School is also in the process of creating a restructuring plan to implement next school year for failing AYP multiple years.

Everyone is in support to get all students achieving, but sometimes how to go about it is difficult to agree upon.

And, no one’s ready to give up.

“The school and teachers are exceptional,” said Tucker.

Claire and John Floyd at the Marine Corps Ball in Hawaii, circa 1971.

Reporter’s note: Sometimes in this line of work, you head down one path and a different story appears out of nowhere. This is one of those times.

Wanting to hear stories of Christmases past, I scheduled interviews with seniors in the community. Then I met John Floyd and his wife, Claire. This is a story of love and giving of one’s self, perhaps the greatest Christmas gift of all.

BY ERIN JENNINGS Kitsap Week

O

n Christmas Eve, John Floyd will read to his wife from the book of Matthew in the Bible, just as he

has for 53 years.

Instead of reading from their home in Port Townsend, for the fourth year in a row he’ll be reading at the Messenger House Care Center on Bainbridge Island.

It’s a journey of 44.2 miles from John’s driveway to the parking lot at Messenger House, a journey he travels four days a week.

Because inside the walls of the Mediterranean-style building lives Claire Floyd, the woman John immediately fell in love with in 1958.

“I just looked at her and I loved her,” John said.

John met Claire by chance in a hotel dining room in Tucson, Ariz. Four days later, he pro-

posed.

John was in the Marines and, soon after the engagement, was shipped to his post in Kodiak, Alaska. Six months later he returned to marry Claire.

Between the day they met and

their wedding day, Claire and John were together 12 times.

And now, John travels 88.4 miles roundtrip to spend time with his sweetheart.

Claire has lived at the care facility since 2008. She has vascular dementia, and though she doesn’t communicate as well as she once did, she is able to tell John “Good morning” and “I love you” upon his arrival.

John’s schedule is precise — what else would you expect See GIFT, Page 2

Gift Continued from page 1 from a retired Marine? He arrives at Messenger House at 8:15 a.m. and stays until 2 p.m. The couple spends the day together watching old movie classics starring Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire. Claire watches from her bed, while John sits next to her, holding her hand and talking with her.

Claire can no longer feed herself, so John helps her — often some of her favorite foods he prepared at home, like asparagus or beets.

“I understand that [Claire] is better off here than she is with me stumbling around the house trying to do all the things she needs to have done,” John said. “But at the same time, there is some guilt.”

Growing up in rural Texas during the end of the Great Depression and during World War II, John said people wouldn’t dream of placing family members in care facilities.

“If you put mama in what they then called a rest home, people didn’t speak to you at church on Sunday,” John recalled. Both of his grandmothers suffered from dementia and were cared for at home by family members.

“Although I understand it intellectually, it’s hard for me to get used to the idea that I can’t care for her on my own,” he said.

During John’s career in the Marine Corps he was often away for long stretches of time, leaving Claire to care for their two daughters and their home. If that wasn’t stressful enough, Claire was burdened with the constant worry about John’s whereabouts. To this day, a bumper sticker in Claire’s room reads, “Marine Wife! Toughest job in the Corps.”

“Over the years, my debt to her kept building and building and building,” he said.

Inside the decorated living room at Messenger House, John reminisces of Christmases past. With the lights from the Christmas tree twinkling off his glasses, he talks about his time with Claire and their family. During his military career, the Floyds moved so frequently, they never were in the same house for more than two Christmases in a row.

But no matter where they lived, the traditions stayed the same: decorating the tree with ornaments collected over the years, reading from the family

Bible, hanging the stockings John’s mother made.

“We really never changed those things,” John said.

“We tried real hard to remember what Christmas is supposed to be about.”

This year, John will spend Christmas Eve with Claire, and then come back again to be with her on Christmas morning.

“I see Christmas as a special time for family and friends,” he said. “It’s a time to remind yourself that we are all on this planet together. And if we can make other people’s lives better, then our lives are better.”

Although he travels hundreds of miles a week and spends hours behind the wheel, John doesn’t think he’s doing anything remarkable. It’s nothing Claire wouldn’t do for him, he said.

And now, John must excuse himself and get back to his bride.

“Truth be told,” he adds before leaving, “I am in as much love with her now as I was in 1958. I come over here because I want to help her, but the other part is that I love being with her.”

Traditions “We usually picked up our tree around Dec. 10, but it sat in the garage undecorated until Christmas Eve when we decorated it.

We wouldn’t have the tree up too long because we used bubble lights and they would get very hot.” — Anna Maria Whittington-Dirk “Families sat around the fire and told stories and sang songs.” — Name withheld “I grew up in England.

Christmas dinner began by 1 p.m. in order to be finished by 3 p.m. when the Queen would give her annual holiday message.” — Mavis Blackwell

Memorable gifts received “When I was 15, I was given the gift of my very own room. Up until then, I had to share.” — Anna Maria Whittington-Dirk “I grew up in the ’30s and ’40s and didn’t expect a lot at Christmas. One year I got a bicycle, and it was used. I didn’t care though, I was so happy.” — Name withheld “One year I snuck around to find my gifts before Christmas.

Christmas morning very disappointing to already know what I was getting.” — Anna Maria Whittington-Dirk “We lived in a small town without much access to toys.

My mom used remnants and made a bride doll for my sister and a bridesmaid doll for me. They were very authentic, complete with flowers. They were really special because she did such a good job with the materials she had.” — Name withheld “My aunt made me a sailor dress using the material from one of her coats. She sacrificed something of hers in order to make the dress for me.” — Mavis Blackwell

Gift mentality “Unfortunately, we’ve gotten into a mindset that things are as important as people —and if children wake up on Christmas morning without a thousand things to open under the tree, that they are somehow being deprived.” — John Floyd “Gifts are so much bigger than they used to be. They used to be homemade and the focus of Christmas wasn’t on the gifts.” — Mavis Blackwell

Favorite songs “We sang all the classic songs like ‘O Holy Night’ and ‘Angels We Have Heard on High,’ but we only sang the first verse. To this day, I still haven’t learned the second verse. — Anna Maria Whittington-Dirk “I like them all, but my favorite is ‘Away in the Manger.’ ” — Name withheld “I enjoy singing all the traditional songs, but my favorites are ‘Silent Night’ and ‘God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.’ ” — Mavis Blackwell

It’s the expression of love, not gift, that counts

tanding on his tiptoes to see over the high counter, the young boy asked me to wrap his gift in the fanciest paper.

"It's for my mom," he said as he slid the bag toward me. “Make sure to take off the prices. I don't want her to know how much I spent."

Inside I found a pair of plain Gold Toe dress socks and a gaudy cubic zirconia necklace.

It was a necklace only a Trump could love — if only it was real.

I could imagine the scene leading up to our encounter: The boy wanted to buy his mother a Christmas gift.

His mother, kindly keeping

ASK ERIN

By ERIN JENNINGS his budget in mind, told him she wanted nothing more than a new pair of socks.

The boy went to the mall to fulfill her wish, but happened to take a detour

by the costume jewelry department.

The sparkling jewels were too much for him to resist.

He wanted his mother to shine.

Back at the gift-wrapping counter, the contrast between the socks and the necklace was almost comical. And, of course, he wanted them wrapped together in the biggest possible box.

The store’s complementary gift-wrap was gray with your choice of ribbon.

But I was pulling out the stops for this young lad.

Instead of using the dull paper, I wrapped his gift in the expensive glittery gold

ust before going to bed that night — “de Pakjesavond,” or the Evening of the Presents — the children would diligently place both a carrot and some dry hay inside their empty, but carefullylocated, shoes.

These “snacks” were not for Sinterklaas nor were they for the three helpers, the Zwarte Piets. No, these treats were for the white horse Sinterklaas rode while dressed in his red-and-white splendiferousness and directing the gifting activities of his three chimney-capable urchins.

Then the Dutch children, after getting their parents to promise to put out the fire in the fireplace before “turning in” for the night, would go to their bedrooms and try to fall asleep. With the excitement regarding what the following morning would bring and “with visions of sugar plumbs dancing in their heads,” the children were rarely successful in drifting into slumberland very quickly.

But eventually they would.

And sure enough, as Dutch folklore attests, Sin-

terklaas would arrive on his white horse in the wee hours of the night and his three helpers would go to work with their uniquelyassigned tasks for each home.

Sinterklaas would review his book, which recorded the names and addresses of all the children, and he would read the naughty-versus-nice annotations. With that information, Sinterklaas would then dispatch his three young assistants — the Zwarte Piets — to distribute the predetermined presents from the gift bag to the appropriate homes in all of the neighborhoods of the cities and surrounding communities.

The goodies in the large bag that Sinterklaas carried with him always contained everyone’s favorite: the ever-popular Dutch chocolate. Most often the chocolate was in the form of the first letter of each nice child’s first name. For example, if a nice boy’s first name was Radjan, the chocolate letter would be an “R”.

Also included in the bag were other popular edibles and tasty treats such as pepernoten, speculaas, kruidnoten, candyflavored marzipan figures, almond-filled pastries, and mandarin oranges.

(Author’s note: If you’ve never eaten speculaas or kruidnoten, ask your Mom to make some for you. If she really loves you,

she will.)

Not to be ignored, naughty children were also remembered by Sinterklaas. The gift for the naughty children was always a roe, i.e. a short, hand-made broom of willow branches. The small broom was specifically intended to be used by parents to spank naughty children who had failed to meet sufficient niceness expectations during the preceding year.

(Author’s note: Sinterklaas, by today’s standards, was not always politically correct.)

Seldom over the years did Sinterklaas disappoint very many children in his domain, when they arose on the morning after “the Evening of the Presents.”

And now you know about the early history of annual gift-giving and where some of today’s Christmas traditions came from.

However, as you also know, not everyone of us is equally fortunate or equitably blessed. Therefore, when you think about giftgiving this season, find a way (via any of a number of local charitable organizations) to share your good fortune with others … such that all members of our communities can experience a very Happy Holiday season.

paper, topped with a giant gold bow and faux greenery.

Of course, I wasn't going to charge him.

He oversaw the entire process, giving me suggestions on additional ribbon and accoutrements.

That Christmas morning, I thought about the boy and his mom — the pride he must have felt giving her his prized gift. And the joy and surprise she experienced upon opening his gift.

I hoped she showered him with kisses and told him it was the most exquisite necklace she had ever seen.

I hoped she immediately wore the necklace and didn't take it off.

I hoped she showed it off at Christmas dinner, for her extended family and friends to see.

Chances are, you won’t receive such a necklace this Christmas. (This happened years ago; surely, the com-

pany no longer makes such jewelry.)

But this Christmas, you may find yourself unwrapping a gift that takes your breath away — not for the gift inside, but rather for the love the gift represents.

Another highlight was the 13-member teen group’s performance to a mash-up Danny Hines synthesized from Journey’s classic rock hit “Don’t Stop Believin’” and Lady Gaga’s “On the Edge.”

There were no reality TV shows featuring amateur singers when Amy Deangelo Hines was a young, aspiring performer, but she

hopes some of the youngsters she’s training might go on to audition for “American Idol” or “X Factor.”

“It’s really a passion of mine,” she says. “I put my heart and soul into everything I do with those kids.”

And the program’s already growing. Hines said 45 students are signed up for the next session that starts in January, and she plans to start a young adults “Glee” group at iiT Factor.

The 30 youngsters in three age groups — from South and Central Kitsap — who signed up for the initial session this fall sang and performed choreographed routines in the Christmas-themed program Dec. 17 on the stage at Marcus Whitman Junior High School.

Hines has a performing background that goes back to teaching herself to play piano in grade school, singing in an elite choir in high school, and sneaking into bars when she was underage so she could sing in karaoke contests.

In addition to preparing and directing all the youngsters’ performances, she showed off her own vocal talent Dec. 17, accompanied by guitarist Jeremia Alexander as she performed a song she wrote called “Yesterday.”

Her husband Danny, who will retire in September after 20 years in the Navy, arranges and composes all the music for performances in the iiT (stands for Idols in Training) show.

Meet the king of Northwest bubbly

BY ANDY PERDUE AND ERIC DEGERMAN

W

hen it comes to celebrating, few wines in the Northwest are more affordable, available and worthy than the sparklers from Domaine Ste. Michelle.

This summer, Rick Casqueiro observed his 15th anniversary as winemaker of Ste. Michelle’s sparkling wine house in Paterson, Wash.

Remarkably, perhaps the turning point for Domaine Ste. Michelle came during Casqueiro’s third vintage with Ste. Michelle, just before the 1998 harvest.

Each summer, then-CEO Allen Shoup and then-

NW WINES marketing executive Ted They asked me what I wantBaseler would gather their ed to do, and I told them I winemakers wanted to change in Yakima for the base blends — I a weekend of wanted to make a golf, dining, traditional cuvée relaxation and with Pinot Noir and meetings.

Chardonnay, and “At that time leave the Riesling we were usout. If they wanted ing Riesling as to do Riesling by the primary itself, that’s fine, but Rick Casqueiro, if we were going to component winemaker at in the cuvée,” compete with the Ste. Michelle Casqueiro said. folks in California, “I remember we I said we needed to were in this small working with the restaurant, and Allen was traditional Champagne sitting across the table from grapes. me and Ted was next to me.

“A week later, Pete Bach-

man, who was my boss at the time, said, ‘OK, you got your way.’ ” The transition — and the timing — brought immediate results, and Casqueiro’s wines have earned gold medals and lofty scores from competitions and publications ever since.

Most of the Domaine Ste. Michelle wines can be found for $12 or less. At that price, they are wines to be enjoyed virtually every day of the week. But they also are among the most versatile and food-friendly wines on the market.

As you plan for the holidays, here are some of Domaine Ste. Michelle’s latest releases. They should be easy to find.

■ Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Blanc de Blancs, Columbia Valley, $12. This bubbly is crafted from 100 percent Chardonnay and is a pretty dry wine. It opens with aromas of buttered toast, yellow grapefruits, sandalwood, quince, tangerines and white pepper.

The palate shows off refined

bubbles backing up a plethora of flavors, including luscious citrus. This will pair beautifully with shellfish, chicken, pasta with a cream sauce or a plate of soft cheeses.

■ Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Brut Rosé, Columbia Valley, $12.

Rick Casqueiro’s pink sparkler opens with classic Champagne notes of toast, yeast, pecan pie, apricots and white strawberries. On the palate, it is bright and dry with flavors of Granny Smith apples, yellow grapefruits, lychee and peach pie.

We love this wine with oysters, as well as spicy Indian and Thai dishes.

■ Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Brut, Columbia Valley, $12. For this wine, Casqueiro blended Chardonnay (88 percent) with Pinot Noir to craft a bubbly that is remarkable in quality and value. It opens with exotic aromas of sandalwood, bay rum, lychee, fresh ginger, Gala apples and spun sugar. On the palate, the mild (1.19 percent) residual

sugar melds with flavors of watermelons, minerals and rangpur limes. We like this wine on its own as a celebratory sparkler, but we could also see pairing it with mussels, clams, calamari or oysters.

■ Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Extra Dry, Columbia Valley, $12. This is DSM’s sweetest bubbly and a favorite for weddings because it is pleasing to a broad range of palates (translation: Your grandma will love it). Like the Brut, it is a blend of 88 percent Chardonnay and 12 percent Pinot Noir, though the residual sweetness is a bit higher at 2.3 percent.

It opens with aromas of minerals, dusty apples, a hint of toasted marshmallows and premium vanilla ice cream. On the palate, it explodes with flavors of Jonagold apples, ginger, oranges, limes and pears. We love this wine with a wide variety of dishes, from sushi to barbecued pork to Kung Pao chicken.

Pearl Django performs Jan. 13 at Collective Visions BREMERTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pearl Django, one of Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most respected and busiest Hot Club Jazz-style groups, performs Jan. 13, 7-9 p.m., at Collective Visions Gallery, 331 Pacific Ave., Bremerton.

Tickets are $20 in advance, $24 on the day of the concert. Call 377-8327.

The YWCA of Kitsap County is event co-sponsor.

Pearl Django, now in their 16th year, have performed all across America, in Canada, France and Iceland.

Strongly influenced by their namesake, hot jazz guitar pioneer Django Reinhardt (1910-1953), Pearl Djangoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s repertoire now includes many original com-

positions that transcend simple categorization.

Their music reaches out across the divides of taste to a wide variety of audiences.

The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fervent followers include fans of Django Reinhardt and violinist Stephane Grappelli, lovers of string music, bluegrass devotees, guitar enthusiasts, world music fans drawn to French and Gypsy accents, jazz buffs and aficionados of new swing music. Pearl Django packs in enthusiastic audiences at dancehalls and nightclubs, at folk music festivals and jazz festivals.

Pearl Django was voted Favorite Area Jazz Band in 2003 by readers of Seattle Weekly, which wrote, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pearl

Pearl Django incorporates the music of hot jazz guitar pioneer Django Reinhardt and violinist Stephane Grappelli with American swing music.

Pearl Django / Contributed Django play(s) gypsy jazz â&#x20AC;Ś and they do it with such verve, skill and pleasure

that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty much irresistible to jazz and nonjazz listeners alike.â&#x20AC;?

A reviewer for 6Moons. com wrote of the groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s album â&#x20AC;&#x153;Under Paris Skies,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Paris is the city of love, then Pearl Djangoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music is the flirtatious accompaniment.â&#x20AC;?

Pearl Django is Troy Chapman, guitar; Michael Gray, violin; Ryan Hoffman, guitar; David Lange, accordion; and Rick Leppanen, bass.

The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inception was as a trio in Tacoma in 1994.

The focus of Pearl Django was, and is, to incorporate the music of Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli with American swing music. They quickly expanded to a quintet, adding a violinist and a third guitarist.

An interview on NPRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Things Consideredâ&#x20AC;? in 2001 brought the group to national attention. In June 2002, Pearl Django performed at the prestigious Festival Django Reinhardt in Samois sur Seine, just outside Paris, France.

As of 2007, Pearl Django is working as both a quartet and a quintet (with accordionist Lange). All of the members are contributing original compositions to the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expansive repertoire.

They have released nine CDs to date.

Bainbridge Arts and Crafts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; 151 Winslow Way E, Bainbridge Island â&#x20AC;&#x201D; opens a month-long exhibition of Ahvakanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work Jan. 6. An exhibition reception is scheduled for that day, 6-8 p.m.

BAC then hosts an artist talk with Ahvakana on Jan.

7, 12:30 p.m.

Ahvakana is a contemporary Native master artist who works in alabaster, glass, marble, wood and other materials.

Born in Fairbanks, Ahvakana grew up in Barrow and Anchorage. He says that watching his mother, an accomplished skin sewer, was his introduction to the arts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All my life, I was surrounded by my culture and my people, the Inupiaq of

northern Alaska,â&#x20AC;? he wrote. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The dances and songs of the Inupiaq tradition is the oral history of my people.

It is the emotional interpretation of our respect and involvement within the environment of the North Slope of Alaska. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My work involves the use of many media and materials. Within my designs, I incorporate the sense of my cultural design, but the interpretation is very personal and the concep-

tual format, I hope, will give the viewer an idea of the Inupiaq tradition.â&#x20AC;?

He studied at Rhode Island School of Design, Cooper Union School of Art in New York City, and the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe, N.M. His work is in private and public collections, including the Alaska State Museum, the Burke Museum, the Portland Art Museum, and the Institute of American

Dec. 17 and 5 a.m. Dec. 20.

Police Cmdr. Sue Shultz said the suspect(s) pried open the back door of the box, which has a front opening thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large enough for small boxes.

Shultz said residents who find mail that appears to have been dumped should call the Police Department, (206) 842-5211.

Claims can be filed at the Post Office between 9 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. For more information on filing a claim, call (206) 855-9571. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; BainbridgeReview.com

BREMERTON PATRIOT Bikini baristas can still serve: The Kitsap County Board of Commissioners decided not to pursue an ordinance which would regulate what so-called bikini baristas can wear while serving cof-

fee at roadside stands.

Instead, the commission proposes signage that clearly identifies stands that employ scantily clad workers, so the public can avoid them if desired.

Deputy county prosecutor Shelley Kneip said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The problem seemed to be more about people inadvertently driving in without realizing what these stands are about.

The board advised us to focus on this.â&#x20AC;?

Commissioners decided to back off the county lewd conduct ordinance after learning that regulating what the baristas wear while working could violate First Amendment rights, specifically freedom of expression. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; BremertonPatriot.com

CENTRAL KITSAP REPORTER High gas use among Bremerton police: The Bremerton Police Department has a per-vehicle gas budget nearly double what Seattle spends and $1,500 more per car than the State Patrol spends.

Bremerton police cite inefficient patrol cars while

others say errors in officer reporting are possible causes.

The proposed fuel allowance for Bremerton police for 2012 is $228,086. With 38 total vehicles in the fleet, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a yearly average of $6,002 per vehicle.

Reducing gas use to State Patrol levels would return $53,789.50 a year to the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operations budget. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Of course weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d love to get it down closer to what they do,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Patty Lent said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are encouraging officers to become more efficient with gas usage.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; CentralKitsapReporter. com

KITSAP NAVY NEWS Navy adjusts Purple Heart award policy: In response to advances in the diagnosis and treatment of mild traumatic brain injuries, the Secretary of the Navy has updated standards and procedures for awarding the Purple Heart, one of the militaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recognized awards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In light of recent research, military neurologists have discovered the scope of mild traumatic brain injuries is wider than previously thought,â&#x20AC;? Secretary Ray Mabus said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wounds suffered while defending our nation,

whether seen or unseen, deserve our utmost gratitude and respect.â&#x20AC;?

Sailors and Marines may now be awarded the Purple Heart for certain mild traumatic brain injuries that were caused by enemy action. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; KitsapNavyNews.com

NORTH KITSAP HERALD 100 families get food boxes: It was 7 a.m. but all volunteers were awake and alert and decked out in Lions Club vests. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tough time of year for a lot of families,â&#x20AC;? said John Macdonald of the Poulsbo Noon Lions Club. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For those who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really provide a lot, this gives them a little bit extra to enjoy the holiday season.â&#x20AC;?

after speeding past deputy: A 26-year-old South Kitsap motorcyclist used the shoulder of the road to zip around a deputyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patrol car and then refused to get off his bike when he was pulled over, the Kitsap County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office reported.

A deputy was driving eastbound on Tremont Street from the State Route 16 interchange around 7:30 p.m.

PARTNERS IN HEALTHCARE: PCHS and the “Safety Net.” Page 4 ■ ACCESS! Advocacy update. Page 3

December, 2011 Vol. 1, No. 1

PENINSULA COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES

To the Kitsap Community: It is with pride Peninsula Community Health Services (PCHS) launches our newest communications effort, ACCESS! Although we have provided primary care to Kitsap County for 23 years, to nearly 25,000 patients for over 80,000 visits annually, we find that many of you do not know who we are, what we do, or how to connect with PCHS. ACCESS! is being published in order to spread the word.

PCHS was founded in 1989 as a community clinic in downtown Bremerton and over the years we have now expanded to four medical sites, a dental pro-

gram, behavioral health and clinical pharmacy services for our patients, and proudly serve as the only “federally qualified health center” on the Olympic Peninsula.

We depend on a community of caring support— our patients, our staff, our volunteers, and those who contribute time, talent, and dollars to our efforts. We will be using this publication to inform, to solicit your commitment, and to ask for your advocacy. The challenges we face are many. Our funding comes from a combination of federal and state resources and those

resources have been cut every year for the past five years. We hope you find the content compelling and informative.

ACCESS! tells the stories, defines the way PCHS works, and outlines ways you can assist us in fulfilling our mission, “to provide access to affordable, compassionate, quality healthcare services for our community”.

Join us!

PCHS “Wheaton Way Clinic” to Open January 4, 2012 The PCHS Board of Directors made the bold decision to “grow” into the access and economic challenges facing us. Yes, although funding cuts loom, the numbers of our friends and neighbors who need access to health care grows with each passing day. Because of this

Poulsbo

increasing demand, we are opening our fourth medical clinic on January 4, 2012.

Appointments can be scheduled now by calling 360-3773776. The Wheaton Clinic will house both daytime appointments as well as our evening and Saturday “walkin” extended hours clinic.

The Bremerton Sixth Street Clinic will continue to provide medical and dental services from 7:30am-6:00pm. Class A Pharmacies and Behavioral Health Services will be provided to PCHS patients at both Bremerton sites as well as at our clinics in Poulsbo and Port Orchard.

One stop for your healthcare needs Today’s pharmacists do so much more than just put pills into bottles!!!!

Pharmacists are now trained as Doctors of Pharmacy. “Pharmacy” now includes prescriptions, over-the-counter medications, herbal products, supplements, alternative supplements, and immunizations.

All PCHS clinic sites have full service pharmacies that are only available to PCHS patients. Our pharmacies have the only local access to certain government and drug company programs to get needed medications to patients at a very low cost.

Each of the pharmacies has scored in the highest category for patient safety during routine inspec-

Pharmacist Patricia Lambro, Josef Milde, with Dawn Dwyer tions. For PCHS patients, that means that our quality pharmacy staff can focus on your individual needs.

The provider and pharmacy teams are in constant contact to maximize your medication-related safety. Pharmacist can easily review your entire health-

care record to monitor for drug allergies and harmful drug interactions. They can meet with your provider immediately to change your medications for safety reasons, as well as for costsavings or insurance coverage.

PCHS pharmacists actual-

ly schedule many different one-on-one appointments with patients. Pharmacists can monitor certain medications, such as blood thinners, to be sure they are working and are at safe levels. They can help your provider and nurse with the management of complicated diseases, such as diabetes. Our pharmacists also work with several pharmacy schools to bring the cutting edge pharmacy research and practice to the entire healthcare team.

On the rare occasion that you cannot get a prescription filled at a PCHS pharmacy, rest assured that the pharmacy team is still working with your provider to monitor your medications and follow up plans for needed appointments and lab work.

Pharmacists are an integral part of your healthcare team at PCHS. Stop by any of our pharmacies today to see what services and benefits are available to you.

Access! Advocacy update “Protect patients and community health centers from potentially devastating cuts at the state and federal level.”

People would be forced to seek costlier care in emergency rooms, forcing the price tag for private insurance to continue to rise.

As Washington State and the nation continue to struggle through our economic crisis, we must stand together to protect health care. The decisions our policymakers deliberate will impact access to health care for the foreseeable future. This is an important time for supporters of community health centers to be heard!

We are asking you to reach out to our federal and state policymakers now and in the next few months to let them know the impact of cuts on PCHS patients and our communities. Ask them to support Community Health Centers like PCHS.

Imagine a future without community health centers: 720,000 people in communities across the state would lose their health care home and not receive the primary care they need to stay healthy and at work.

People would be unable to manage their chronic conditions, would delay needed care, and would likely end up with more serious and more expensive treatments.

Richard’s Story “Breakfast at Sally’s” Usually we do not identify PCHS patients (privacy rules and all), but this time, Richard LeMieux author of “Breakfast at Sally’s” and PCHS Board member, has given us permission to use both his name and his story. If you have not read “Breakfast at Sally’s”, please do so.

If you need a copy, let us know. That is the place Richard relates his journey…painful, disturbing, and finally triumphant as he fought his way back from the brink to a life of

good health and hope.

One of the last stops for Richard was our partner agency, Kitsap Mental Health Services where he worked tirelessly to wage war on his depression and despair. His story was complicated, as are many in the homeless community by addiction, depression, and a multitude of physical challenges. First he found his way to KMHS and then the counselor said to him, “Richard, go to Peninsula Community

BOARD OF DIRECTORS:

The heart of our healthcare family

Health Services, THEY ARE WAITING FOR YOU!” Today, Richard is on the lecture circuit in conjunction with the book— bringing a message of hope to homeless advocates and community activists across the country. When he is home, he still has Breakfast at Sally’s (the Salvation Army), and supports those agencies that reached out to him.

Thanks for your service on the PCHS Board of Directors, Richard.

Page 3

We invite the community to support healthcare for the homeless by contributing to “Willow’s Fund” named after Richard’s little dog, Willow….who cried out to him and kept him whole.

Peninsula Community Health Services, as a local not-for-profit corporation, is governed by volunteer members of our board of directors. In fact, most of them use our health care services. Having patient advocates on the governing board of directors allows PCHS to better know the needs of its patients.

The Board has several jobs and one is to make sure the company observes state and federal standards in many areas of health care. They also make decisions about our programs and services. One decision this year was to go ahead with a new clinic on Wheaton Way. Board members saw the need to expand our services in spite of the recession and decided to build the second Bremerton clinic.

PCHS Board members take an active interest in the welfare of PCHS patients.

They take our mission of “providing accessible, affordable, compassionate, quality health care services for our communities” to heart. The community and PCHS are fortunate to have these dedicated community members willing to serve.

PENINSULA COMMUNITY HEALTH SERVICES

Dr. Edwin G. Tegenfeldt Patient Care Fund

December, 2011

Willow’s Fund

Peninsula Community Health Services is supported by the United Way of Kitsap County.

This year United Way is supporting the PCHS “Reach Out and Read” program expansion so we are providing age appropriate books for our kids to take home in both our medical and dental programs.

Your gift to the Willow’s Fund will be used to offset co-payments for eligible homeless in the community who receive care in one of our health centers.

Your gift to the Dr. Edwin G. Tegenfeldt Patient Care Fund provides support for ancillary services, such as x-rays, lab work and medications, for PCHS patients who cannot afford them.

Partners in Healthcare: PCHS and the “Safety Net” We hear a lot about the health care “safety net” these days. So, just what does that mean? In Kitsap County, there are many partners that comprise the safety net for our most vulnerable populations: PCHS (general health care and chronic disease management), food banks, shelters, church outreach programs, Coffee Oasis for homeless youth, YWCA Alive Shelter for domestic violence victims, Kitsap Mental Health Services (critical/chronic mental illness and co-occurring disorders), Hospital Emergency Departments, and sometimes even jail/juvenile correction services. The idea of a “safety net” is that before a person hits rock bottom that there will be an open, welcoming door for them to access services and

Reach Out and Read is a national program originally sponsored by the American Academy of Pediatrics to support children and their parents in all the fine ways that reading together can foster.

We believe that reading is an important, natural, and pleasurable part of daily life. From 3 years old through elementary school, children love books.

Our books are purchased through donations from staff, support by the United Way, and contributions from you.

support.

❑ Healthcare for the Homeless “Willow’s Fund”

PCHS serves as that safety net and as a medical home for 25,000 Kitsap neighbors.

At PCHS our patients may be low income, uninsured, or even “down and out”, AND our patients may be fully insured, retired military, Medicare recipients, working one or more jobs and contributing in many ways to this vital community.

We provide ACCESS for anyone seeking our services. We depend on private practices and medical groups throughout the area to support our patients’ specialty care needs, and we partner with Harrison Medical Center for hospital services. PCHS is just one partner in a caring network of service providers.

A

festive party calls for a lively variety of delectable edibles.

These recipes give you some sweet and savory choices that will help spread the holiday cheer.

Scrumptious bites start with simple, flavorful ingredients — golden Calimyrna and dark purple Mission figs from California and Jarlsberg cheese. They also make great house gifts, wrapped in a colorful box or presented on a pretty serving dish.

Sweet, mouthwatering figs are not only packed with great taste, they’re full of fiber and essential nutrients, making them as good for you as they are good to eat.

The versatile taste and texture of Jarlsberg cheese is ideal for these appetizers.

Jarlsberg’s mild, nutty-sweet flavor and buttery creaminess makes it a perfect partner to figs and, along

with its excellent melting properties, adaptable to many sweet or savory dishes.

You can combine both ingredients in one easy sure-to-please appetizer: Make a slit in a fig and stuff with a piece of Jarlsberg.

Wrap with partially-cooked bacon (it should be a bit limp) and heat at 400°F just until bacon is crispy and cheese begins to melt.

Get more sweet and savory holiday recipes at www.ValleyFig.com and www.JarlsbergUSA.com.
