Mayor Nehring outlines State of the City

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring’s State of the City address on Jan. 27 cited the importance of the city’s partnerships with neighboring governments, and even its own citizens, in recognizing its accomplishments to date, and charting a course toward future successes.

“We enter this new year with no illusions that things in the economy will be much improved in 2012,” said Nehring, even as he

pointed to positive signs in Boeing’s renewed commitment to the Pacific Northwest, the USS Nimitz coming to Naval Station Everett, the Armed Forces Reserve Center opening in Marysville, strong holiday retail sales and a slightly lower unemployment rate.

“It’s really up to us to keep our city moving.”

Looking back on the city’s achievements in 2011, Nehring expressed pride in its public safety, noting that 2011 saw 36 crimes reported per 1,000 residents, the

lowest rate for the city since 2000, and lower than the current statewide average of 47.5 crimes reported per 1,000 residents. At the same time, he acknowledged that residential burglaries increased 19 percent between 2010 and 2011 in both the city and throughout Snohomish County.

“The [Marysville Police] Department is acutely aware of the increase, and personnel are using crime analysis, repeat offender data and SEE CITY, PAGE 2

COMMUNITY:

Stillaguamish Valley School student David Bennett, left, and Stu Frothingham of Silicon Energy help load up a solar panel from the company to the students’ school as part of the Snohomish County Public Utility District mini-grant program for public education.

MARYSVILLE — A Marysville solar panel manufacturer provided an education on solar energy to several Arlington-area students and their families, but their teacher is already aiming to use what they gained that day to educate the community beyond.

Stu Frothingham, who handles marketing and communications for Silicon Energy in Marysville, not only got to play tour guide through the company’s plant on Wednesday, Jan. 25, for Marci Bass’ students and their parents and guardians from the Stillaguamish Valley School in Arlington, but he also gave them a going-away present of a solar panel.

Bass had received a $500 Snohomish County Public

CITY FROM PAGE 1 street-level intelligence-gathering to attack the problem,” Nehring said.

City street crews focused their limited funds on basic maintenance so well that Nehring has received favorable feedback on their work, which he also commended in the wake of the city’s first snowstorm of the new year.

“I can’t say enough about the professionalism and rapid response of our public works, streets and park maintenance workers, and the amazing job they did around-the-clock to sand and plow key roads around Marysville,” Nehring said.

Nehring provided a number of reasons to be optimistic about the city’s budget, including the fact that it’s already met its goal of replenishing the fund balance to 10 percent of its revenues a year ahead of schedule, the new Management of the Cedarcrest Golf Course reducing the expenses subsidized by the city by half in 2011, and the State Auditor’s Office honoring the city in 2011 for five consecutive years of clean audits with no findings.

“Accountability to taxpayers is important,” said Nehring, who’s presented

5IF "SMJOHUPO 5JNFT t 5IF .BSZTWJMMF (MPCF

Innovative Service Awards to city employees for ideas that have saved the city a combined total of $360,000.

Nehring credited city employees with contributing to the welfare of their community off the clock as well, by raising $16,912 through the United Way campaign and collecting $3,583, 5,519 food items and 300 toys for families in need during the winter holidays.

Marysville city employees also raised thousands of dollars for last year’s Marysville/ Tulalip Relay For Life, just as Marysville Police raised thousands of dollars for Special Olympics in Washington state through their annual Torch Run Relay and “Tip a Cop” campaign.

Nehring quantified the value of the volunteerism of the Marysville community as a whole by reporting that volunteer hours on behalf of city programs totaled 1,722 hours in 2011, an increase of 500 hours over 2010 levels.

“These hours are equivalent to $34,440 in added value to the city,” Nehring said. “I am proud to lead a city made more vibrant and welcoming because of acts of civic-minded individuals such as these, who share a sense of community. The city’s Volunteer of the Month continues to honor nominees who are making a difference

in our community.”

As the city’s permit revenues have exceeded expectations in 2010 and 2011, Nehring announced that the city will offer online permitting for some residential services, in addition to existing interactive website services which include notifications via emails or text messages of road closures, emergency alerts, special events and agenda postings, as well as apps to report graffiti, potholes or streetlights that have gone out.

Looking ahead to the rest of 2012, Nehring cited the construction already underway on the Lakewood Triangle Access/156th Street I-5 overcrossing in north Marysville, which he anticipates will take pressure off the 172nd Street overpass a mile north, once the overcrossing opens in September.

The State Route 529 bridge replacement is on schedule to open the new fixed-span bridge on the Ebey waterfront to northbound traffic only by this spring, while southbound drivers will continue to use the old bridge.

Once all traffic is routed over to the new bridge in August, workers will begin dismantling the old bridge.

To ease congestion within the city, Nehring explained that the city will build a three-lane extension of 51st

577890

Avenue between 84th and 88th streets, as well as a new 40th Street NE corridor to create a new access point at State Routes 9 and 92.

To that end, Nehring plans to increase the 116th Street/I-5 interchange from three to six lanes, as well as to build additional eastbound and westbound lanes along Fourth Street/State Route 528 under I-5.

By building a new I-5 northbound off-ramp onto State Route 529 and new southbound on-ramps from State Route 529 to I-5, Nehring also hopes to help mitigate the impacts of any increased freight train traffic resulting from the proposed Cherry Point Coal Export Facility in Whatcom County.

State Avenue is already in the final phase of a widening project to convert the existing three-lane road from 116th to 136th streets to five lanes.

Nehring reiterated his goal of creating a regional manufacturing and light

industrial center for as many as 10,000 family-wage jobs in the Smokey Point area, whose proximity to the Arlington Municipal Airport and its business park “make this entire area an economic development oasis” in his estimation.

Joint resolutions between the cities of Marysville and Arlington, and the Tulalip Tribes, have echoed Nehring’s assessment by declaring their mutual commitment to fostering aerospace, manufacturing and industrial growth in the Smokey Point area, which Nehring aims to promote as a potential “supersite” for contractors and suppliers for Boeing and other players in the aerospace industry.

Nehring hopes to attract manufacturing and light industrial businesses to the area by creating a more competitive fee structure, as well as through legislation that would create a property tax exemption for areas that have already been zoned and planned for manufacturing

and light industrial use, such as Smokey Point.

To foster an individual identity for Marysville as a community, Nehring has also maintained a long-term focus on creating a more park-like, pedestrian-friendly environment downtown by blending high-rise housing with a mix of new retail and office space.

Recently proposed downtown initiatives include increased policing efforts, tougher lewd conduct and panhandling laws, proactive code enforcement measures and improvements to the Qwuloolt Trail along the Ebey waterfront east into the Snohomish River Estuary.

“The fourth component in this package is community participation, and that’s where you come in,” Nehring said. “Through an interactive meeting and online means, we want you to share your ideas and help us prioritize a menu of downtown improvements that will align with any potential funding.”

make a cooler to cool them off?” asked David Bennett, a 13-year-old student at the Stillaguamish Valley School.

“Great question,” Frothingham said. “The problem then, though, becomes that you’re using energy drawn from the panels to cool the panels, rather than using it to power whatever you want to power in the first place. However, we have a built-in space between our two sets of panels that can be opened up to allow for cooling airflow.”

Bennett’s continued curious streak prompted Frothingham to estimate that Silicon Energy’s Marysville plant produces between 25-75 solar panels a day.

“Watching the machines at work was cool,” said Bennett, as he recalled seeing the delicate solar panel wafers being laid out in a grid and enclosed in what Frothingham compared to “a grilled-cheese sandwich” of laminate layers on the inside and glass layers on the outside to better resist water and sand and other elements that could damage exposed wires in other types of solar panels.

“There’s so many processes involved in making a solar panel,” said Nate Ursino, 10, one of Bennett’s fellow students, and one of many to accidentally break the solar panel wafers that Frothingham gave them as another memento of their visit. “I didn’t realize how fragile this stuff was.”

At the same time that students learned firsthand

how gently the ingredients of a solar panel need to be handled, they also got to test out the endurance of Silicon Energy’s finished product, when Frothingham encouraged Nate and his 12-yearold brother Kyle Ursino to jump repeatedly on a solar panel that’s withstood hundreds of such demonstrations already. Bennett and 12-year-old Liam Mayer also checked out a smaller solar panel that had withstood close-range gunfire without any of the bullets penetrating all the way through.

“Most solar panel manufacturers will say their panels are 80 percent good after 20 years,” Frothingham said.

“Ours are still 80 percent good after 30 years. The National Renewable Energy Laboratory tested our solar panels and a bunch of other companies’ to see when they would fail, through simulated aging cycles of minus-40 and plus-80 degrees Celsius in high humidity, and after 80 simulated years, everyone else’s was done. After 100 simulated years, ours are still running like new.”

Just as Frothingham touted such solar panels as ideal for use by the military in hostile overseas environments where they might not have a reliable power source otherwise, so too did Lamarca describe solar energy as an emerging energy source of the future that the children of today would do well to be well-versed in.

“The next generation is going to need to be innovative,” Lamarca said.

Utility District mini-grant for public education to cover much of the cost of the panel, while Silicon Energy itself agreed to make up most of the remaining difference.

“These mini-grants cover a wide variety of topics, but we have a huge focus on renewable energy,” said Jenni Lamarca, public education programs coordinator for the Snohomish County PUD. “One of the things I noticed about Marci’s grant application is that she’s planning a solar fair around this solar panel, to educate the public beyond the classroom.”

Silicon Energy’s Marysville plant offered an education outside the classroom for visitors of all ages on Jan. 25, as kids and adults alike reacted with surprise when Frothingham explained to them that the Pacific Northwest is more well-suited than many people might think to solar energy.

“Heat is actually the enemy of solar panels, which work better when they’re cold,” Frothingham said.

“Solar panels are less efficient during the summer because there’s more resistance,” said Gary Shaver, president and CEO of Silicon Energy. “They even have to be designed to compensate for the fact that they over-perform in colder weather.”

Haugen, Stevens on opposite sides of gay marriage bill whose definitions of marriage differ from her own.

“For me personally, I have always believed in traditional marriage between a man and a woman,” Haugen said.

“But this issue isn’t about just what I believe. It’s about respecting others, including people who may believe differently than I. It’s about whether everyone has the same opportunities for love and companionship and family and security that I have enjoyed.”

Haugen identified the freedom to live according to one’s own personal and religious beliefs as part of the American way, even though she acknowledged that many people would differ with her opinion.

“I also trust that people will remember that we need to respect each other’s beliefs,” Haugen said. “All of us enjoy the benefits of being Americans, but none of us holds a monopoly on what it means to be an American.

Ours is truly a big tent, and while the tent may grow and shrink according to the political winds of the day, it should never shrink when it comes to our rights as individuals.”

One of Haugen’s reservations, which had previously made her undecided in this matter, was eliminated once the bill included an amendment which would allow a church the right not to marry a couple if that marriage contradicts the church’s position. Although her ultimate preference would be to put this issue on the ballot for the voters of the state to decide, she acknowledged that there might not be the votes to put it to a ballot measure. She declared that the role of her vote as the one that ensures the bill’s passage was irrelevant to her decision.

“If I were the first or the seventh or the 28th vote, my position would not be any different,” Haugen said.

“I happen to be the 25th because I insisted on taking this much time to hear from my constituents and to sort it out for myself, to reconcile my religious beliefs with my beliefs as an American, as a legislator, and as a wife and mother who cannot deny to others the joys and benefits I enjoy.”

State Sen. Val Stevens of Arlington, a Republican representing the 39th District,

argued that this bill would do away with the purpose and benefit of traditional marriage.

“Marriage attaches mothers and fathers to their children and to one another,” Stevens said. “If homosexual marriage becomes law, our state will have discarded the tradition that a child needs a mother and a father.”

Stevens alluded to “mountains of data” attesting to the importance of children being raised by their own mothers and fathers.

Although she took care to acknowledge that homosexuals are not responsible for current generations of “fatherless and motherless children,” she warned that legislation such as Senate Bill 6239 could be responsible for generations to come.

“Two years ago, sponsors of the legislation to create domestic partnerships stated marriage was not their goal, and that they only wanted the same rights as traditionally married couples,” Stevens said. “Apparently they are no longer content to have the changes they insisted they needed. Now they want to distort traditional marriage. This bill is

Operations and Elections Committee by a 4-3 partyline vote on Thursday, Jan. 26, that rejected all four Republican amendments to provide additional protections for clergy, religious groups and businesses that choose not to provide services related to same-sex marriages.

The bill’s next step is the Senate Rules Committee, followed by a Senate floor vote that could take place within a week.

State Attorney General Rob McKenna, Republican candidate for governor, has pledged that he would vote to repeal same-sex marriage legislation if it appears on the ballot this November.

Although McKenna promised to maintain the existing domestic partnership law, he shares Stevens’ commitment to preserving the state law defining marriage as between one man and one woman.

U.S. Rep. Jay Inslee, Democratic candidate for governor, supports the same-sex marriage legislation and vowed to fight against its repeal.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Public Schools will be hosting their second “Know Your Schools” event for members of the community on Wednesday, Feb. 8, from 8:30-11:30 a.m.

Community members are invited to meet in the Arlington School District Board of Directors’ office, located at 315 N. French Ave., at 8:30 a.m. for a complimentary continental breakfast with ASD Superintendent Dr. Kristine McDuffy.

Attendees will be able to hear about the learning occurring in the schools, and after the informational session, there will be a tour of a few schools to see student achievement in real time.

“We would like you to see firsthand some of our successes, challenges and opportunities,” ASD Public Information Officer Andrea Conley said.

Please contact Conley by phone at 360-618-6217 or via email at aconley@asd. wednet.edu to make your reservation.

not about policy. It’s about breaking down moral and religious standards.”

Stevens decried what she deemed as examples of discrimination in the states that have legalized same-sex marriage, including a county clerk in New York who lost her job for refusing to sign a same-sex marriage license, and a Methodist church in New Jersey that was stripped of its tax-exempt status and sued for discrimination for not renting out its facilities for a lesbian civil-union ceremony.

“The proponents of this bill claim that won’t happen here,” Stevens said.

“Should this legislation become law, will they rush to the defense of people in our state who nonetheless find themselves under attack? The costs of this bill to our society, as well as to our religious rights, are too high.”

Stevens pledged to continue speaking out in support of defining marriage as between one man and one woman.

OLYMPIA — Two state Legislators representing the local area have come out on opposite sides of a proposed law that would allow same-sex marriages in Washington.

State Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen of the 10th District went from being the Democrats’ remaining holdout to becoming the 25th vote needed to pass Senate Bill 6239 on Monday, Jan. 23.

Haugen noted that she’d received a number of letters, emails and phone calls from supporters and opponents of the bill, which had posed a complicated decision for her.

“To some degree, this is generational,” Haugen said.

“Years ago, I took exception to my parents’ beliefs on certain social issues, and today my children take exception to some of mine. Times change, even if it makes us uncomfortable. I think we should all be uncomfortable sometime.”

Haugen attributed her tolerance of others to her strong Christian beliefs, which she credited with motivating her to be less judgmental, even of those

he strategy announced last week

by The American Psychiatric Association to revise the definition of autism will effectively eliminate the autism “epidemic” simply by changing what we mean by the word autism itself. The APA’s strategy has two paradoxical outcomes.

First, it neatly absolves society of the burden of supporting a significant population of people whose needs are not changed in the slightest by the clever redefinition of the label that describes them.

But at the same time, the APA’s strategy also acknowledges how universal this condition we call autism actually is. In a way, the autism spectrum has become so universal it can no longer be considered “special.” But the fact remains that all people have basic needs — for medical care, for education, for employment, for a home to live in, for dignity and respect — and that all people have something important to contribute to the common good. This is true of everyone, regardless of what their particular version of the human condition might be or where they fall on the universal spectrum of attributes of which we are all composed in infinite variety and combination — the human

I recently ran across Temple Grandin’s remarkable account of her experience as a person with autism. In her fascinating book Emergence: Labeled Autistic, Dr. Grandin (she has a doctoral degree in animal science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign) describes her unique way of perceiving the world as an asset that gives her distinct advantages over “neurotypical” people. Dr. Grandin, as she has gradually come to realize, is a “visual thinker” which gives her tremendous advantages as a designer of complex industrial equipment. But at the same time the unique way in which her mind works makes it difficult to understand more abstract concepts like algebra or the complexities of human emotion and relationship.

As a child Dr. Grandin was blessed with a strong family and support system.

Public school finance: Don’t waste this crisis!

L

ook at a high school text book. Everything is firstclass, or was when it was new. It’s tough, colorful, heavy and made to last. If you tried lugging a trade paperback to school and back every day it would be a mess of loose pages within a week or two. Library-rated bindings last longer but even they are no match for the durability of textbooks. Of course that level of quality costs a bundle so with school budgets in crisis you can be sure that school districts are squeezing one more year from nearly used up textbooks.

Ask kids about the textbook situation. They see classes without enough books to go around and if there are enough, some are pretty well trashed. Seven to eight years is the normal life for a textbook.

That lifetime might cover 1,200 repetitions of being stuffed into backpacks, tossed under seats of school buses, paged through during homework time and then lugged back to school for the next day.

When county property tax collections slumped, schools found themselves cut off at the pockets.

Schools can’t spend beyond their means so they have cut here, cut there, trimming every cost that’s trimmable, including textbooks.

Yes, it’s a crisis, but as the old saying goes, never waste a crisis.

Can any good be found in the textbook crisis? It’s certain that

OPINION BOB GRAEF something has to be done when existing stocks of textbooks fall short of covering all students, copy machines run short of paper and toner and orders for other learning resources are slashed because the money just isn’t there. No use crying about it. You have to deal with it.

There is reason to believe that budget deficits might force changes that actually improve education.

Though the quality of instruction can’t help but suffer from cutting staff, reduced budgets for learning materials could possibly bring about tradition-breaking changes that would turn out for the better.

No doubt about it, textbooks have cost too much and weighed too much for a long time. As with big banks, big text publishers have bought out small ones until most textbooks are now printed by only three giants and that’s led to monopolistic pricing plus a dangerous concentration of editorial policy.

As to cost, Marysville pays $131.85 for an AP Chemistry text, $75.27 for U.S. History and $73.99 for Biology. Believe it or not, those are well below publishers’ sticker prices because school district buy-

ers wring discounts from jobbers who stock textbooks. After the artful dickering is done, textbooks still remain outrageously pricey.

At the end of seven to eightyear replacement cycles, some of every district’s textbooks come up for replacement. At least that used to be the plan. Oak Harbor just announced it won’t be replacing 10-year-old K-12 science texts as planned. The money isn’t there.

Some districts are testing ways to eliminate textbooks. Vail, Colorado and Florence, Arizona, shelved textbooks and bought each student a laptop to search out and store course content. The cost per student was $450, $100 less than one student’s books. Of course that saving won’t hold up when maintenance and replacement are factored in. For a cheaper option, imagine students downloading an entire curriculum onto e-readers like Kindles, Nooks, or iPads. The question is, will tests show that such webbased learning materials deliver positive results.

Free substitutes for textbooks are now available. They’re called Open-Source materials and they are gaining popularity among innovative districts. Open-source texts seem to have first surfaced in South Africa where teachers founded a project known as FHSST, or Free High School SEE CRISIS, PAGE 5

like autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome and so on. Rather, the point is to deal with the challenges while focusing on the possibilities — on the unique gift and contribution that every person brings, and on the qualities that are evoked in everyone when people of all abilities are engaged with one another.

I have yet to meet a parent in my work who, despite a lifetime of dealing with sometimes overwhelming physical and behavioral challenges, did not in the end feel their child had unique gifts to offer.

I think, for example, of the mother I met recently whose adolescent daughter has profound developmental conditions that include being nonverbal, wheelchair-bound, tube-fed and a frequent long-term guest at Children’s Hospital. The biggest challenge, says her mom, is not the tubes and

diapers and medical worries, but rather the lack of play dates. Because her daughter, whose radiant smile in the presence of friends could light a small city, loves other kids above all things. She is not a university professor or frequent talk show guest, but she has this in common with Temple Grandin — her differences, her very challenges, speak to her inherent worth as a human being and evoke wonderful qualities in everyone around her.

We are all on the spectrum, the human spectrum. And this is a good thing because the world needs people of all abilities and the unique gifts we bring to each other.

Nehring re-elected to Community Transit board SNOHOMISH COUNTY — There will be a lot of familiar faces on the Community Transit Board of Directors the next two years as all eight board members eligible to remain on the board were reelected, including Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring.

The newcomer is Edmonds Mayor Dave Earling. He was elected to represent large cities, but this isn’t his first time on the board. Earling served on the board for 12 years in the 1990s and early 2000s, when he was an Edmonds City Council member.

Members who were reelected at Community Transit’s Board selection meeting Jan. 26 include Marysville Mayor Jon

Nehring, Mill Creek Mayor Mike Todd, Mountlake Terrace Mayor Jerry Smith, Mukilteo Mayor Joe Marine, Stanwood Mayor Dianne White and Sultan Council Member Steven Slawson.

Earlier, the Snohomish County Council reappointed Council members Dave Gossett and Dave Somers as its representatives. Lance Norton serves as the board’s labor representative.

The new board will elect officers at its first meeting, on Thursday, Feb. 2.

Three new board alternates were chosen as well.

Arlington Council member Debora Nelson, Lake Stevens Council member Kim Daughtry and

Lynnwood Council member Sid Roberts will serve in those positions, along with Snohomish Council member Tom Hamilton. Snohomish County Council member Stephanie Wright was named the County Council’s alternate.

The Community Transit board is chosen every two years. The board is comprised of two representatives from the Snohomish County Council; two representatives from large cities, with more than 30,000 residents; three representatives from medium-sized cities, with 10,000 to 30,000 residents; and two from small cities, with fewer than 10,000 residents.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Support Arlington schools On Feb. 14, we will ask you, the voter, to approve a School Programs and Operation Levy (formerly called a M&O Levy) for the Arlington School District.

As your elected representatives we do not take this action lightly. We understand the fiscal responsibility that is placed squarely on the shoulders of each Board Director.

While we realize any kind of tax is a burden, we also must acknowledge that the state does not fully pay for all of the programs that it mandates or that our community has determined that we need. In order to fund all of our day-to-day operational expenses, we are forced to ask our local voters to fund 22 percent of our current educational programs.

We want to stress to the Arlington School District voters that this is a replacement levy — not a new or additional tax. The $3.57 per thousand will replace the rate that you are currently paying.

What does this money do?

It pays for 35 percent of our school transportation costs and 30 percent of our staffing needs. In addition, it funds a significant portion of special education, technology, teaching materials, and extracur-

ricular activities.

Our district was recently cited by the State Auditor as one of the most efficient school districts in the State.

We’re proud of that recognition. We’ve worked hard to provide a comprehensive school program for our kids. We urge you to vote on February 14. Our kids are counting on you.

Pearson’s bill to address PBMs gets hearing OLYMPIA — With the cost of health insurance increasing year after year, Rep. Kirk Pearson introduced legislation he believes will lower prescription drug costs and ensure locally-owned pharmacies can keep their doors open. House Bill 2303, which would create greater transparency for Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBM), received a hearing Jan. 25 in the House Health Care and Wellness Committee.

“As with most issues sur-

rounding our health care system, PBMs are complicated,” Pearson explained.

By way of background, PBMs are middlemen that design, negotiate and manage prescription drug benefits for a variety of health insurance plans. The bulk of income PBMs generate is derived from pharmaceutical manufacturers that provide rebates and discounts to PBMs as a type of reward system for promoting their brand-name drugs to drive

usage in health insurance plans. This creates a system where the consumer is forced to purchase more costly brand-name drugs, which benefits PBMs financially.

“I normally don’t wade into health care issues, but because several local pharmacists brought the issue to my attention I began to look into it further. My concern is two-fold. First, are consumers getting the best deal possible on their prescription drugs, and second, these middlemen in our health care system are the only group that is unregulated,” said Pearson, R-Monroe. “I’m not asking that we dismantle the entire system, but consumers need to know their interests are being looked after.”

Pearson is also concerned PBMs are taking the personal connection out of the pharmacist-patient relationship and adding to job losses in the community.

“There are some instances where these benefit managers contract with local pharmacies to provide services, but the payments made to the pharmacy are significantly lower than the cost of the service,” Pearson said.

State Rep. John McCoy of the 38th District, left, and Marysville Getchell High School student Dallas Duplessis of Tulalip.

Duplessis serves as Legislative page OLYMPIA — Marysville Getchell High School student Dallas s of Tulalip served under state Rep. John McCoy (D-Tulalip) as a legislative page on the floor of the House of Representatives for the week of Jan. 16.

Any student aged 14-17 is eligible to serve as a legislative page in the state House or Senate where, for one week, they will deliver messages for lawmakers and learn firsthand about the democratic process.

“In addition, PBMs mandate mail-order prescriptions for many patients, which is hurting our local pharmacies.

Not only do those pharmacies serve a vital community service, the pharmacists are often times the people who can tell if a patient is having trouble with a medication, spots a dosage issue or a deadly drug combination.

This is critical for patients, particularly those who are taking medications for complex health conditions.”

The Federal Trade Commission is currently looking at PBM operations and a possible merger of two of only three PBM mailorder drug companies.

“Some big drug manufacturers object to my bill because they claim it would reveal their ‘trade secrets’ to the rest of the industry,” Pearson added. “The fact is, this is truly a simple trans-

MG, M-P swim and dive take on Kamiak

BY JAKE MCNEAL jmcneal@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Getchell and Marysville-Pilchuck boys swim and dive hosted undefeated Kamiak on Jan. 24 for a late-season showdown that would measure how the Chargers and Tomahawks compared to the Wesco’s best.

Tomahawk junior Colin Willis won and qualified for 4A Districts in both the 200-yard freestyle and 100-yard backstroke and senior Tyler Russell won the 1-meter dive, but M-P fell 122-63. Getchell senior Josh Estella won the 100meter butterfly and qualified for 4A Districts but the Chargers fell 133-49.

“We were hoping to see if we could push through,” said M-P and MG head coach Meredith Jenks.

“It was kind of hard to say where we were with the snow week that we had, but we’ve got six days of practice until JV Championships and four more practices after that until Districts.”

The scores did not favor the Marysville schools, but individual performances stood out.

Tomahawk senior Casey Mills made 3A Districts in the 100-yard backstroke and M-P sophomore Owin Ell made 4A Districts in 200-yard individual medley. Many swimmers, including Tomahawk senior Kaili Swan and freshman Jason Kent, completed the Iron Man challenge in which a swimmer competes in every event over the course of a season. The meet was Tomahawk sophomore Jonathan Pusateri’s last of the season as he was soon to leave with

his parents on a mission trip to Africa.

M-P’s 200-yard medley relay A team of seniors Andrew Winquist (29.56 seconds) and Jon Ell (30.04), Willis (24.84) and Jacob Blomberg (23.91) took second with a total time of 1:48.35.

Tomahawk junior Colton Sellers took sixth with a 3A Districts time of 1:08.18 and Knowlton finished seventh at 1:10.01. M-P freshman Tony Preston came in eighth at 1:19.27.

Winquist finished third in the 100-yard freestyle and made 4A Districts at 51.10 seconds.

Blomberg made 3A Districts at 58.38 for fifth, Korte took sixth at 59.11, Hicks came in seventh at 1:03.14, M-P sophomore Grant Baker took eighth at 1:05.23 and MG junior Conner Lindgren finished ninth at 1:13.10.

Jenks said that the Chargers and Tomahawks will work on sprinting, starts, turns and finishes in the last practices of the regular season.

“It’s all fine-tuning from here on out,” Jenks said. “We’ll see what we can get ourselves. Our guys are going to buckle down and work hard.”

Tomahawks not able to overcome Eagles MARYSVILLE — Tomahawk boys basketball hosted 4A North fifth-place Arlington on Jan. 24 seeking vengeance for the 75-50 drubbing they suffered at Arlington on Dec. 9.

The last-place Tomahawks brought a playoff intensity as they sought to derail Arlington’s postseason plans, but the Eagles held on late for a hard-fought, 44-34 win.

“They’re definitely playing better,” said Arlington head coach Nick Brown of the M-P squad that suffered yet another narrow defeat yet refused to hang their heads.

“They’re so physical and strong.

It was a slugfest and both teams played hard.”

Arlington opened the game with a full-court press to keep the

Tomahawks off-balance, but M-P fought through it and senior post Calvin White’s put-back put his team on the board first. Tomahawk senior guard Dominique Kiblinger earned a trip to the free-throw line with a strong layup shortly after.

Arlington junior guard Terry Dawn converted a layup and hit a turnaround fader from just inside the left three-point line moments later to kick-start the Eagle offense.

Senior guard Tanner Goheen beat M-P senior post Philip DeSanctis from the left off of a half-court breakaway.

Tomahawk junior wing Jalen Apel-Henderson bumped up and inside on the left block for a layin before Arlington senior guard Conner Davis nailed a three from top left of arc.

M-P senior guard Nathan Williams rebounded Goheen’s missed three-pointer and took it the length of the court for a layup, a foul and a free throw. Goheen returned for a tough layup from the right and junior post Dan Boyden hit a three-pointer from top of line to take an 18-10 lead and force an M-P timeout with 7:32 remaining in the second quarter.

Both defenses tightened up and Arlington’s threes stop falling as two threes from Davis drew iron, as did Dawn’s and sophomore guard Kaleb Bryson’s.

“Dom was locking down Terry Dawn, the best player on their team,” White said.

M-P FROM PAGE 8 ket that stirred up the crowd.

DeSanctis took the ball up and in through the paint for a score and Kiblinger barreled up and into the defense for a layup from right. Apel-Henderson hit a three from the top right to cut Arlington’s lead to 24-17 and force an Eagle timeout with 2:19 until halftime.

Dawn missed a three-pointer from the left but grabbed his own rebound for a scoop-andscore layup from the left. Dawn and Davis looked to get back on track with threes but both attempts missed.

Kiblinger skipped the ball across the court to M-P senior guard Nathan Williams who beat the halftime buzzer with a layup to trail 28-19 at halftime.

Dawn missed another threepointer and Kiblinger took advantage for a score on the other end of the floor. Arlington took another timeout, lead down to six at 28-22 with 5:12 left in the third quarter.

M-P broke Arlington’s fullcourt press and DeSanctis went up strong for a shot in the left

of the paint. Eagle junior guard AJ Passalacqua answered with a short basket from the left.

Arlington’s defense bore down on DeSanctis in the paint as Boyden and senior post Bo Brummel combined to block his turnaround jumper. Boyden muscled up in key on the other end for a lay-in from the left block and a 33-25 Arlington lead at the end of the third quarter.

“Don’t be selfish,” said Tomahawk head coach Bary Gould to his resilient squad.

“Pass up a good shot for a great shot.”

The Tomahawks moved the ball much better instead of settling for quick shots against Arlington’s 2-3 zone though they went cold from threepoint range. White put an offensive rebound back up and in for the score.

Missed free throws threatened to kill Arlington’s lead, but Dawn beat the Tomahawks’ man defense and powered in for a layup from the left and the Eagles led 40-34 with three minutes remaining in regulation.

Boyden was fouled in the paint and made both free

throws with 2:37 remaining.

Dawn missed a three-pointer off of a Davis steal, from which M-P could not find a bucket, with 1:57 left but Arlington swung the ball to wind down the clock. Dawn missed a 1-and-1 free throw and Arlington turned the ball over in the paint. M-P took a timeout trailing 42-34 with 40 seconds left.

Kiblinger’s three-pointer wouldn’t fall and Dawn was fouled and hit both free throws for a 44-34 lead.

The Tomahawks missed their final shot and the Eagles swung the ball around halfcourt to run out the clock for their 44-34 win.

“We need to block out better and that’s a fact,” Gould said.

“As a team they killed us in rebounding. They got second and third chances and killed us on the offensive glass. It’s a guard, forward and post problem. The other thing is that we had to make free throws.

There’s something attractive about guys who don’t give up, and people like to see that,” said Gould of the game’s crowd, the largest he’d seen in his M-P coaching career.

Dwoskin named city’s Volunteer of the Month MARYSVILLE — Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring was proud to announce Preston Dwoskin as the community’s Volunteer of the Month for December, in recognition of the student’s community involvement and advocacy on behalf of people with disabilities, including the deaf and hard-of-hearing. “Preston is highly deserving of this recognition,�

Nehring said at the Jan. 9 Marysville City Council meeting, during which Dwoskin, 20, was honored in front of family members and friends. “While Preston lives with severe hearing loss, he has not let his disability define him. He aspires to be a leader, and through his activities advocating on behalf of people with disabilities, and actions that demonstrate his passion for building a sense of community spirit, he is already displaying that leadership.�

Marysville teacher Jim Strickland nominated Dwoskin for the honor.

program provides practical, real world work skills by putting students in volunteer or paid jobs with partnering local businesses and agencies.

Dwoskin has assisted with various community service projects, helped coach youth baseball teams as a huge fan of the sport, and served as announcer for the YMCA’s 360 breakdancing competition. He is interested in politics and public speaking, which he has done at the podium at City Council meetings more than once, as well as in building relationships in the community to improve the lives of others, cultivating natural leaders who can go out and inspire effective partnerships between community groups on projects that benefit the community as a whole, and serving as an advocate for people with disabilities.

Dwoskin has been participating in the Arc of Snohomish County’s Leadership Training Program, which culminated in a trip to Olympia last month for Legislative Advocacy Workshops.

According to Nehring, Dwoskin put his advocacy skills to the test through tasks such as preparing statements on issues important to people with disabilities.

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion, what is important is that God is happy with your religion.

Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to the open study and honest application of God’s word. It may not be entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isn’t that the whole point of religion? Let’s talk about it. 360-939-2080
