Rain and wind welcomes Thanksgiving week Forecast for the week calls for rain to continue by Kevan Moore and Wes Morrow kmoore@soundpublishing.com wmorrowsoundpublishing.com

Cars drove through standing water on Northwest Bucklin Hill Road and across many areas in Kitsap County Monday.
And then the rains came. National Weather Service forecasters on Monday predicted a wet and woolly Thanksgiving week. Not much change was expected for Western Washington through midweek, as system after system was expected to bring heavy rain and windy conditions to the lowlands, and heavy snow for the mountains. In Port Orchard, Bay Street was closed due to flooding and many roads around the region had standing water. Temperatures meanwhile were forecast to be near or above normal through the
middle of the week. Forecasters said some rivers could flood. Flooding in urban areas and small streams along with potential landslides were also possibilities. Southerly winds could be strong at times, downing small branches and trees, and causing local power outages. Heavy snow above 4,000 feet, with snow and freezing rain, along with rain below 4,000 was expected to make travel difficult in the mountains, especially in the Cascade passes. Kitsap County Department of Emergency Management activated the Severe Weather Shelter Plan. The shelter was available for overnight refuge to those without proper shelter. The shelter is located at Bremerton Food Line, 1600 12th street in Bremerton. It was opened at 6 p.m. Monday and stayed open until 7 a.m. Guests were advised to arrive early because check-in would not be allowed after 10 p.m.
Phone scammer Turkey and giving golf tournament tries and fails By Dennis Box

’Tis the for holiday shopping and scams. Bill Bryan, a Silverdale resident, figured out a scam before he was taken. Bryan received a call from a man identifying himself as Rick Bush, the senior vice president of Publishers Clearing House. He told Bryan he won $50,000 and a new car. The man on the phone stated he and a team of five would be at his house in the yellow van with the Publishers Clearing House logo on the side. The man provided Bryan with detailed information about the winnings, giving a prize identification number, claiming number and his business cell phone number. All the information he provided Bryan sounded very authentic and convincing, but it was all fake. Publishers Clearing House does have a senior vice pres-
ident, but he spells his name Rick Busch. The name given to Bryan was Rick Bush. The details of the scam were Bryan was to buy a gold stamp card and have it at his house when Rick Bush arrived at noon. Bryan was instructed to buy the card at Walgreens. The cost of the card was $500. He was told if he had the card he would be given the prize money and car. Bryan was savvy enough to contact the Central Kitsap Reporter and the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office. “They (sheriff ’s office) told me to tell them I had contacted the police,” Bryan said. Bryan did not buy the card and called the man back as instructed by the sheriff ’s office. The man maintained he was legitimate and was happy Bryan was checking, but he insisted Bryan must buy the card to get the money and car. Reporter Wes Morrow See SCAM, A2

An annual golf tournament with the family and friends of Dan Ericson has become a charitable Thanksgiving tournament. Ericson, a teacher at Klahowya Secondary School, said about six years ago the golf tournament became a turkey tournament to provide food for families in need in the Central Kitsap School District. The annual golf tournament is at the Rolling Hills Golf Course and each year for the past six the food donations have grown dramatically. “This started with friends and family as a Halloween (golf) tournament” Ericson said. “About six years ago I decided to make it something more meaningful and help our community. The first year it was turkeys and meals for about 25. This year will be more than 100.” Ericson’s wife, Amanda, who is a teacher at PineCrest Elementary School said, “It is the best feeling to give back to our community.” Along with friends and family of the Ericson’s, many staff members from the Central Kitsap School District joined in the giving. Ericson also said many businesses and organizations in the community donated including, Rolling Hills Golf Course, Ralph’s Red Apple Market, Kingston IGA, Alive Covenant Church and Watson Furniture.

Woman dies in early morning collision Suspect in custody after fleeing from bar and running red light BY KEVAN MOORE KMOORE@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
A 40-year-old Bremerton woman was killed instantly in an early Saturday morning car crash in Silverdale. The vehicle she was a passenger in was slammed into by an Lincoln MKS running a red light. The collision occurred at the intersection of Silverdale Way Northwest and Northwest Bucklin Hill Road. The driver of the Lincoln, a 28-year-old-woman and a former California resident most recently living in Bremerton, suffered minor injuries and is being held by police on $500,000 bail while under investigation of vehicular homicide and assault, along with violation of the Uniform Controlled Substance Act for possession of meth and heroin. Police said she also has a no-bail felony warrant out of California for a parole violation stemming from a burglary. She was treated for minor injuries at Harrison Medical Center before being taken into custody and was expected to make her first court appearance on Monday afternoon,

after this newspaper’s early holiday deadline. Also hurt in the wreck was the 40-year-old driver of the Nissan, an unidentified resident of Matlock in southern Mason County, who was transported to St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma with serious injuries. According to the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office, the fatal collision was preceded by a domestic violence investigation around 1 a.m. at the Silverdale Bistro in the 3300 block of NW Byron Street in Old Town Silverdale. The sheriff’s office said that the Lincoln was parked near the bar and a man standing nearby matching the description of one of the people involved in the disturbance was briefly detained. Then, when deputies attempted to speak with the woman, she was uncooperative and moved from the passenger seat of the Lincoln to the driver’s seat and suddenly accelerated away from the scene westbound on Byron Street, nearly striking officers and others gathered nearby, before turning right onto Silverdale Way. The Lincoln ultimately struck the Nissan at a high rate of speed at the front passenger door. The force of the collision caused the Nissan to rotate several times and finally stop approximately 100 yards farther north, leaving a field of debris strewn behind it. The Lincoln crashed into a galvanized steel street light pole at the northeast corner of the intersection, shearing the pole at the base. The vehicle finally came to a stop up against the south leg of a traffic control island at the intersection. Police said the driver of the Nissan was wearing a seat belt while the woman in custody was not. Both vehicles were totaled. Traffic signals remained on flashing red until approxi-

The winning strategy
OPINION
What political strategy did President Obama use to win re-election? In order to win big stakes elections in America, it’s necessary to frame your opponent in an unfavorable light. Your opponent tries to do the same thing to you. Whoever is more successful in framing their opponent will win the election. Of course, there are other factors like having enough money to do that. While it should Political Talk be obvious to all after this election that money can’t always buy enough votes to win, without money a candidate can’t get his/her message out to the public. President Obama Rich Elfers was very effective in framing Gov. Romney as an elitist rich guy who had no understanding or concern for the poor and middle class. The governor had to also overcome his 47 percent of the population paying-notaxes remark, which made it even more difficult. Obama portrayed Romney as another George W. Bush. These were very effective techniques, whether they were accurate or not. Additionally, Obama was masterful in pointing out how Romney said one thing to win the conservative base during the Republican primaries and then had to switch over to win the moderates and independents in the general election. Obama did not have that problem because there was no real Democratic primary. He portrayed Romney as a flip-flopper — a framing label that Republicans usually use against Democrats. See ELFERS, A11

Patraeus scandal cheats military wives
thousand military wive’s hearts broke. Those men clamoring to hear the radio probably weren’t all single. We always suspected as much, of course, but no one talked about it, and military leaders, we had hoped, certainly frowned on it. Oh, but the damage from this “divorce” is far from done. Next up in the fallout is Jill Kelley, a rich socialite civilian who, despite having no business at McDill Air Force Base, had total access to it and all of its leaders. There, Kelley received favors like written letters of support from two powerful generals for her sister’s custody battle. I had to read that news report twice. I’ve been See SCANDAL, A11

So please, you progressives, keep that bible out of the reach of children. It interferes with progress, you see. Forget that First Amendment about speech. As we progress we will need to alter it someway and impose progressive restrictions.

Bring overtime into compliance Editor’s note: this letter was sent to the Kitsap County Commissioners and the writer requested it also be published as a Letter to the Editor.
This is a follow-up of my June 2012 email concerning corrections officers arbitration and this letter is specific to “overtime” which is only one of the arbitration issues as I understand them to be at this time. Please be advised that I request this email be made part of the arbitrators case as a taxpayer public objection to the proposed decision as it applies to overtime salary payment. Whereas, the county commissioners, all county department heads constitute, form and meet the definition of “county government” and; Whereas, all counties within the state of Washington constitute, form and meet the definition of “State Government” and; Whereas, the state of Washington requires that any person that works has to have accrued 40 hours
Friday, November 23, 2012
of work in any given week before the payment of overtime starts being paid at a rate of time and a half per hour and; Whereas, the government has established that they set hourly wages, hours of work, salaries, medical benefits, annual leave rates, sick leave hours earned, holidays, etc by law and none of these issues are negotiable at any time by employees or labor unions and; Whereas, government does not authorize any government agency, state or local, such as Washington State Patrol, Washington State Ferry workers, Department of Education employees, OSPI employees, Department of Corrections guards, teacher unions etc, to name a few to change, ignore or violate federal law by the negotiation of non-negotiable items just referenced
above. Therefore, why is the county negotiating and establishing overtime payment programs that are contrary to federal law and Washington state law as established by negotiating the payment of overtime at two times the salary per hour and three times the salary per hour when every other working person in the private sector is restricted to overtime payment of time and a half per hour? By the actions of the negotiators in this case the county is discriminating against all private sector employees, establishing a public sector taxpayer tax liability that is unsustainable, providing/authorizing illegal financial funding that correctly is for the lawmakers to control and stop from taking place. Additionally, the union is demanding that the county commissioners not only defy federal law but they are asking the arbitrator to rule against the established Washington state law that governs the payment of overtime in this state. Clearly both federal law and established state law are being re-written here in this case. It appears that the arbitrator’s decision and the county commissioner’s decision need to bring the overtime salaries into compliance with established state and federal overtime payment requirements.

Racquetball tournament draws international skill BY WES MORROW wmorrow@centralkitsapreporter.com
offered catering by Outback Steakhouse of Bremerton and Juanito’s Taco Shop. The club is the home court of Grace Hughes, one of the world’s top-ranked female racquetball players. According to Jablonski, Hughes both plays and teaches at the club. Hughes was participating in a sanctioned tournament in Mexico at the time of the Kitsap Splat, so was unable to attend the local tournament. Gear Box, a racquetball equipment company, was responsible for bringing in many of the international professionals to compete in the tournament, like Sebastian Franco, who ranks 33rd in USA Racquetball Association’s national ranking. Franco won the
men’s singles open bracket, beating the highest ranked player in Washington state, Jeff Star. “(It was) fabulous to see that level of play,” Jablonski said. “It was simply exciting.” Despite the tough international competition, Jablonski said local players performed well. Vega and his partner, Steven Dark, placed third in the men’s doubles open bracket. Vega competes each year at a number of tournaments throughout the state and said the level of competi-
tion was “about as good as Washington will see throughout the season.” Jablonski said the club hopes to host the same tournament again next year, once again sanctioned by USA Racquetball Association. Now that the tournament has established itself as a success, she said, they hope to see more local turnout next year. The West Central District 2A boys tennis tournament was hosted by the Bremerton club, and according to Jablonski, the District would like to host
the girls tennis tournament there as well. This weekend, Bremerton Tennis and Athletic Association will host its annual Turkey Shoot tennis tournament, in which more than 100 players and teams will compete for prizes selected from a truck-full of frozen turkeys.

The Kitsap Splat racquetball tournament drew more than 50 competitors from as far away as Bolivia and Columbia to the Bremerton area on Nov. 3-4. The tournament was hosted by Bremerton Tennis and Athletic Club, a nonprofit, member-owned club that opened in 1970. The club regularly hosts tournaments for both tennis and racquetball. Julie Jablonski, the club’s manager, said many of the tennis tournaments they offer throughout the year are sanctioned by the United States Tennis Association, but this is the first time they’ve had a professionally sanctioned tournament for racquetball. Adam (Rocco) Vega, one of the club’s members, had the idea for the event and set out to bring the plan to life. “I wanted to bring a sanctioned tournament to Kitsap County because we had not had any,” Vega said. Vega’s father, a competitive racquetball player, died a few years back. When Vega began work on the Kitsap Splat, he looked for a way to commemorate his father through the event. A nod to Vega’s father can be found in the tournament’s logo, a picture of Wile E. coyote holding a racquet. “We loved watching Wile E. Coyote together when I was a kid,” Vega said. “It was something fun that I could do to remember him.” The event’s name comes from a type of shot in racquetball called a splat, where the ball comes off the side wall and hits the front wall, making a “splat” noise. The event drew more than 50 competitors. There were a number of local entrants, but many competitors came from abroad to compete in the sanctioned competition. When players compete in a sanctioned tournament, their results at the event influence their professional standings, so players were competing for more than just prize money and bragging rights. The tournament offered
prize money in every division, which Vega believes is a state first for a sanctioned tournament. Jablonski said the club has actually hosted much larger tournaments than the Kitsap Splat. The club’s racquetball league has more than 80 players that compete every Tuesday. Jablonski said even though their numbers are often higher, the Kitsap Splat had excellent turnout for a first-year tournament. She attributes much of that turnout to the club’s facilities and hospitality. “Not many clubs host like we do,” Jablonski said. Bremerton Tennis and Athletic Club has four racquetball courts along with areas for spectators. Competitors were

a local custom, but the faces have changed over the years. The dancers in the company range from 11 to 24 years old. Not a single company member in this year’s production was born when the outfit first performed the ballet 25 years ago. The upcoming performance is one of two ballets the dance company puts on each year, in winter and spring. “It’s a nice way to start off the holiday season,” said Irene Miller, owner of Irene’s School of Dance and
Arts
the ballet’s artistic director. “It’s just a tradition.” For audiences the ballet may mark the beginning of the holidays, but for the dancers, work begins as early as August. Every year, young dancers from Kitsap County audition for spots in the theater. The ballet company offers experienced dancers the opportunity to dance more throughout the year.

The theater is the nonprofit branch of Irene’s School of Dance. Miller helped start the dance company in 1979. The company’s board is composed of dancers’ parents. Once accepted by the company, all dancers are given a spot in “The Nutcracker” performance, but the competition doesn’t stop there. They each must still audition for individual parts within the production. Robyn Harvey, an eighth-grade student at Poulsbo Middle School, was given the lead role of Clara. She says she was confident she had the part after her audition. “I just sort of had a feeling,” she said. This is the biggest role she has played to date, but she didn’t appear nervous during dress rehearsal, only eager to perform. “I can’t wait (un)til we actu-

She prepared for her part by putting in extra hours before each rehearsal. The Nutcracker was originally choreographed by Marius Petipa, but Miller has restaged the choreography to fit the stage and skill level of her dancers. M e k e n z i e Thompson and Shannon Sandy, juniors at Klahowya Secondary and North Kitsap High School, respectively, are cast as the Dew Drops in the Waltz of Flowers. According to Thompson and Sandy, this 25th anniversary performance should be especially entertaining, as they’ve mixed things up a bit from their normal routine.

There never were any favors. But, then, I’m closer to looking more like Patraeus’s wife than I am the perfectly dressed and toned Kelley or Broadwell. I used to think those things didn’t matter in the military. It’s like the rug has been pulled out from under military wives. And as each new picture surfaces of the general wearing what looks like Mardi Gras beads and beautiful women on either arm, we will think of his wife, and our bitterness will grow at being left at home to raise families, where we age, grow plump around the edges and wrinkled in the face.

took office. Based on the results of the election they were willing to cut him some slack and give him another term. America is really center-right politically. The candidate who can successfully focus on that demographic will win the national election. Obama spent his whole time focusing on that group. Romney really was never able to until the first ite is waved onto base. That collective sigh you hear is an army of wives asking themselves, perhaps many decades too late, is this really any way to live a married life? But we aren’t all necessarily questioning our marriages. I’ve loved and been devoted to both my husband and the military. Today, I feel like one of them has cheated me. And it’s not Dustin.

debate. In the presidential election, facts don’t matter much except to the political junkies who know the truth. What wins elections is how effectively the candidate frames himself and his opponent. Whoever is more effective in doing that will win. The lesson we citizens should get from these
elections is that we need to look behind the framing to understand who the candidates really are. That requires a willingness to ignore the negative political ads and to look more deeply for the things that really matter. Does that candidate have integrity? Does he have the skills and experience? Can she be trusted to do the job? Does that candi-

date really care about the citizens or is this really an attempt to aggrandize and serve themselves? Usually, candidates are both concerned about the public and also want to serve themselves. These questions are not easy to answer. They require political sophistication and a willingness to look beyond the
superficial. Yet, without that sophistication, we are doomed to rely upon luck to find the best candidate and to have good government. An educated electorate serves democracy better than voters who are ignorant about the use of framing. It’s time for all Americans to become discerning voters.

Iraq War vets walk to call attention to PTSD By SUSAN RIEMER Vashon-Maury Island Beachcomber
B
REMERTON — Rain fell steadily as the three men in vivid orange shirts and bearing United States flags hiked up the long hill from the north end ferry, a striking contrast to the gray clouds hanging low in the sky above them. Below the American flags, they carried smaller flags commemorating those wounded or killed in action. Children and adults fell in step with the men and joined them for their wet walk. These men — all veterans of the Iraq war — spent Veterans Day weekend on a nearly 60-mile trek from Naval Base Kitsap near Bremerton to Joint Base LewisMcChord, via Vashon Island. Their mission: to raise awareness of the challenges service men and women face when they return from war. At the top of that list, the men said, are post-traumatic

Continued from page 2 talked with guests and Johnson spoke about their purpose. Afterward, they stayed at the home of Dave and Helen Andrews, who, the next morning, spoke glowingly about them. “We gained more from this than these fine young men did,” Dave said. Helen agreed, “It was truly fabulous,” she said, adding that she had tears in her eyes when she watched them leave, flags waving above them. The men stepped off near dawn, planning to end their day at the memorial of their unit with friends and family at Fort Lewis. Britt, 29, and Johnson, 31, have traveled a long road since enlisting in the Army fresh from high school, intent on serving their country. Britt, Johnson, and Johnson’s wife Krianne shared some of their experiences in a conversation at a coffee shop in Port Orchard, where the Johnsons live. The two men met in 2003 and served in the Army’s infantry, a branch of the military whose members — all men — are trained to fight on foot and face-to-face. Johnson said he believes there is more sense of brotherhood in the infantry than in any other part of the Army. “There is a special bond you have to make,” he said. Britt agreed. “We all love each other,” he said. All three men served two tours in Iraq together, and Johnson planned for a 30-year military career. Those plans changed on Dec. 3, 2006, when, in the worst ambush U.S. soldiers had faced since 2003, he was shot in the head, lost an eye and nearly died. After the shooting, Britt, who had been nearby, cleaned out Johnson’s helmet. At Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., a doctor told his family members that he would never walk or communicate intelligently again. The bullet is still lodged in Johnson’s skull and he has diminished vision in his remaining eye. But he works out daily, competes in military athletic events and hopes to participate in the Paralympic games. Walking 60 miles in Northwest fall weather may not rate as extreme
Vashon islanders greet Iraq War veterans Andy Britt, Will Carroll and Chess Johnson on their 60-mile walk to raise awareness of the challenges service men and women face when they return from war. Team Hostile / Contributed for men trained for combat, but both men say — as people with brain injuries — planning and preparation had its challenges. Still, they said they were undaunted and prepared for even the worst weather. “The more difficult the mission, the more we want to do it,” Britt said. Johnson and Britt speak passionately about a list of issues they would like to see addressed: the high rates of suicide, incarceration, alcohol and drug addiction among veterans, improvements made to the VA system, more employment options for vets and, of course, more research devoted to PTSD and TBI and greater awareness about it. Both men acknowledge the issues they are raising are complex. “We’re not trying to solve them,” Britt said. “We’re just trying to get people to recognize they exist.” In fact, the main issues inspiring this walk, PTSD and TBI, exist for thousands of military men and women. Between 13 and 30 percent of deployed combat vets develop PTSD, according to Laura Merritt, a mental health therapist at the PTSD clinic at the VA’s Puget Sound Health Care System, Seattle division. Symptoms can range from flashbacks to irritability to withdrawing from others. In Washington state alone, 33,000 soldiers have PTSD, according to Johnson. Help is available through the VA, Merritt said, and she encourages any vet struggling to seek assistance. Traumatic brain injury,
considered the hallmark injury of the Iraq and Afghan wars, also has had devastating effects. Its symptoms overlap with those of PTSD, Merritt said, including emotional and cognitive problems, such as memory and concentration issues, irritability and agitation. In the Army alone, roughly 20,000 traumatic brain injuries have occurred every year from 2006 to 2011, according to the Department of Defense. Symptoms may last for years, and, unfortunately, such injuries increase the odds of developing PTSD and depression. For both men, these statistics hit close to home. Explosions from improvised explosive devices (IEDs) were a part of everyday life, they said. “I don’t know a single man in my brigade that wasn’t blown up at least 50 times,” Johnson said. Repeated blast exposures caused Britt’s brain injury. His military file, he said, includes nearly 40 documented blast exposures, and he believes 30 to 40 percent of those situations resulted in a concussion. Britt and Johnson have been through difficult times after leaving the military. Some of the challenges Johnson has faced appear in the documentary “Exit Wound,” directed and produced by former islander Hunter Holcombe. Part of the film, which will be shown at the Vashon Eagles next week, shows him struggling to feel safe in a restaurant, people talking and laughing around him, while he checks and re-checks windows, and ultimately decides he can-
not stay out in public. Britt says he, too, struggles with being out in public, especially when he is alone. A trip to the store, routine for most people, is difficult for him, he said, and he experiences such severe anxiety that sometimes he cannot stay to buy what he needs.
Going in the middle of the night makes it easier, he said, and he suits up for the trip, with headphones on and a hood pulled up. Britt, a single father of two young children, said this is especially hard for him when he wants to take them on a simple trip to the mall. The men also hope some of the stigma of being a vet with PTSD will fade in and out of the military — and say, too, that the public has little understanding of the good they did in Iraq, including building schools and setting up and securing the country’s first elections. “We did not go there wanting to kill,” Britt said. “We went there wanting to restore peace and health. And our mission is the same in America.” Fulfilling that mission is why they spent Veterans Day weekend walking. “This band of brothers I was told about from day one … that would never let me down,” Johnson said, “I am fulfilling my part of that.”

Camarda: Quietly one of NW’s top winemakers F
or someone who has enjoyed tremendous success as one of America’s top winemakers, Chris Camarda’s proudest moment as owner of Andrew Will is surprisingly simple. In the early 1990s, he was walking through Discovery Park in Seattle’s Magnolia neighborhood. It was the year his first wine from the 1989 vintage had come out, and he happened to look toward a picnic table and saw a bottle of his wine being enjoyed. “That was a big deal to me,” he said. “I had done it. I had made a wine.” The Wisconsin native grew up in Seattle and worked in restaurants. He and his friends were exploring wines in the mid-1980s, so in 1987, he decided to make some as a hobby. “I was fascinated by it,” he said. After a second batch the next year, he was hooked, so he went professional in 1989. In 1994, he moved to Vashon Island, a short ferry ride from the West Seattle neighborhood of Fauntleroy. Today, Andrew Will is one of three wineries on the island. The 5,000-case winery is not open to the public. Camarda is a partner in famed Champoux Vineyards in the Horse Heaven Hills with Quilceda Creek Vintners, Powers Winery and Woodward Canyon Winery. He’s also an owner in Two Blondes, a vineyard near the Yakima Valley town of Zillah. And he has purchased grapes from Ciel du Cheval on Red Mountain since his inaugural vintage. He also gets grapes from Discovery Vineyard, near Champoux. Despite Andrew Will’s acclaim, Camarda still has room on his mailing list for wine lovers who want access to some of the Northwest’s finest reds.
Chris Camarda is a partner in Champoux Vineyards in Horse Heaven Hills, giving him access to some of the finest grapes in the state.

It is an instant classic, thanks to aromas of blueberries, cloves, brown sugar, blackberries and vanilla.

MG! I am now a big fan of dressing — no stuffing! I never liked stuffing pre-gluten free living. I never understood the big deal with dressing or stuffing or whatever your family calls it. Now I love it. This is a really easy and awesome gluten-free dressing with fennel and rosemary sausage. I have been thinking about this the past few days because I considered not making it. I must say that there were a few people in my family that were kind of bummed that it wasn’t going to be on the menu. So I thought about it and said, what the heck ... I’ll figure it out! So here it goes. My quantity might be off, depending on the size of your family, but this should serve 4-6 people. Ingredients One loaf of Maninis Gluten Free bread or your own 6-8 stalks of celery 1 large yellow onion 1 large fennel with the
GLUTEN free foodies By lisa garza spiky top for garnish on top for serving 2 tbs. thyme 2 tbs. Italian seasoning 1 tsp. garlic powder sea salt black pepper olive oil Uli’s Rosemary Chicken Sausage — 1 package Gluten Free Chicken Broth. I use Kitchen Basics Chicken or Turkey Broth GF and NO MSG, or Trader Joe’s Turkey Broth GF and NO MSG. Directions Chop up the loaf of bread into cubes. Put the cubes into a bowl and drizzle the olive oil on top to just slightly coat the bread and mix. Add a pinch of sea salt, black pepper. Mix and add 1/2 tbs. garlic powder, 1 tbs. of Italian seasoning and 1 tbs. of thyme. Mix well and then put it on to a baking sheet. Bake in the oven for 12-15

Use the same pan, and add some more olive oil to the pan to cover the bottom. Remove the casings of the sausage and put it into the pan. Use the spatula to chop the sau-
minutes at 350 degrees or until golden brown and toasty. Tip: You can make some extra and put them aside to use as croutons for a salad. Chop up the onion and saute it in a large pan with olive oil until translucent. Add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper. Take it out

and mix well. Add the rest of the seasoning — 1 tbs. of thyme and Italian seasoning, 1/2 tbs. of garlic powder. Mix well and slowly add another 1/2 cup to cup of broth until you reach your desired moistness. This is the part that you can add more or less and where everyone seems to vary on liking “the dressing/stuffing” semi-moist to almost soggy. I will let you make that call from this point. Mix well and continue to cook over medium-low heat covered for about 10-15 minutes. Please note that by covering and letting it simmer it will add moisture to the process so add the broth slowly or use less until it is done cooking. Put the dressing/stuffing into a serving dish and add the fresh spiky fennel to the top and serve. Salud!

Palisades. Then moved to Kingston in 2001 and began teaching at the Kingston Community Center and at Island Fitness on Bainbridge Island. In 2006, I opened the Kingston Yoga Center on Cliffside Drive in Kingston. During these years in Kitsap, I have taught hundreds of local students. It takes years to master the techniques of yoga, but there are some short, easy to learn, practices that almost anyone can do in just a few minutes. The catch is you have to do them regularly. It’s just that simple. n Subject: Tight neck and shoulders. n Practice: Take a deep breath and hold. Gently squeeze the shoulders up to ears. Exhale with a sigh and, at the same time, drop the shoulders.

n Theory: When you’re under stress, you unconsciously “turtle” your neck and shoulders and hold them in that position all day long. The gentle squeeze, sigh and exhale cause a relaxation response and a release. n Comments: This exercise must be done several times during the day to be effective. For example, do it before you answer your phone and while on hold; when you check the time; at a red light or stop sign and while waiting in line. Soon you will realize why your neck and shoulder muscles were so sore. n Note: Proven highly effective in reducing nurses’ sick leave at hospitals. That’s why this exercise has been called the “nurses’ shrug.” — Michael Szymanski, kingstonyogacenter@gmail. com.

Kitsap Week Sudoku
Sunshine Ladies save donated stuffed animals from rummage sales for me every year, sometimes by the garbage bag full. We hope the next little owners will feel a tiny bit of the love and care that have gone into them, and be reminded of the Magi who brought gifts to the Christ Child to celebrate his birth. Giving a gift means nothing without careful thought and a lot of love going into it.
Sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The object is to place rating the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each Puzzle 1 (Easy, difficulty 0.37) column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once.

look” and “Mom, can I ask Santa” for this or that. Sadly, most never saw the item they hungered for. The Depression was still the enemy. But for those magical moments, the scene portrayed better days ahead. I stood in awe and drank it all in as only a child could. I look at children now, and wonder: Do any of them feel like that little 6-year-old of so long ago? During the holidays, or any day really, we see stores and shops that are filled with every toy one can imagine. Checking the closets of many children, you will find enough toys for five or more. Most are played with and then given to charity, or thrown into garbage fills. As for me, I collect good-condition, stuffed animals for a child who may not have much of a Christmas. They are put into the washer in Woolite on a gentle cycle, dried, brushed and new ribbons put on them. When through, they look as good as new. The

here is something mystical about evenings in late December, bringing to mind a small 6-year-old child who felt the magic of Christmas in 1937, the year Seattle had a rare blustery snowstorm. Our family had no money, after losing everything in 1929, and living in an old walk-up drafty cold-water flat in town, with one bathroom to a floor. If the folks had an extra nickel, we could ride the old rattling streetcars all over the city with free transfers. They were little chits of paper to hand to the next conductor. The streets had jovial Santas on every corner in red suits, ringing large silver bells, singing out “Merry Christmas!” And if you had that extra penny it went into the black hanging iron pot for someone worse off than you. Music came from the warm five-and-dime stores as young ladies were play-
ing carols on the piano and trying to interest patrons into buying sheet music while shopping on their limited budgets. An out-of-work musician might drop by and play his instrument, getting the crowd singing, with a joke or two. Young women were busily sitting on stools behind a counter repairing long silk stockings. This was before the nylons of today. A run was a disaster for the working girl. The magic of that clear icy night with a bright moon shining overhead, was in the anticipation of seeing the Bon Marché department store’s animated Christmas window, with a Victorian family scene. The happy, smiling family stood admiring the beautiful candlelit Christmas tree with gifts and wonderful toys beneath. The watching children had little noses pressed against the windows that steamed up from their warm breath, and one could hear the chatter of “Look mom,
