Marian Betzer discusses the Fennel Creek Habitat Team with Pierce County staff during a tour of County restoration projects Thursday.

A standing Bonney Lake nature preservation group has just become official.

The Fennel Creek Preservation Group joined the National Wildlife Federation earlier this summer, rechristening itself the Fennel Creek Habitat Team.

The group seeks to preserve the Fennel Creek watershed. Fennel Creek is the largest of eight tributaries in the mid-Puyallup River Basin and home to the Victor Falls; the watershed also covers the majority of one of the fastest growing cities in western Washington.

“If we don’t preserve our natural habitats for the next generation, we’re not going to have any left,” Habitat Steward Marian Betzer said. “You can’t have (fresh air and water) in a place that’s been really drastically

Runaway fugitive shot by deputies in Buckley

By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer

Justin Linn had already built a long rap sheet, made threats to wipe out a local family and twice eluded Pierce County authorities. With that in mind, deputies determined the fugitive would not be leaving Buckley Thursday morning.

The 28-year-old had

other ideas and – instead of submitting to an officers’ orders – attempted to flee from the parking lot of a Buckley motel where he had spent the night.

The drama ended quickly when shots rang out and Linn dropped to the ground along West Main Street, just a long block from the busy intersection of Main and state Route 410. Emergency

medical assistance was rendered with Linn stretched out on the West Main pavement, until an ambulance whisked him away to Tacoma General Hospital.

Later Thursday morning, word was received that Linn had successfully gone through surgery and was in stable condition.

East Pierce Fire seeks volunteers East Pierce Fire and Rescue is looking for volunteer firefighters.

Applications will be accepted through Sept. 16. An orientation meeting for volunteer candidates is scheduled for Sept. 19.

Volunteers respond to 911 emergencies from outlying stations and when the career firefighters are busy with a significant number of calls or a large-scale emergency.

“Volunteers help enhance our response to fire and medical emergency calls as well as assist with public education,” Assistant Chief Ed Goodlet said. “(They) provide an important service by putting trained people in the community, particularly in outlying areas of the District.”

For some, it also provides a transition to a career in the fire service. Many of the current career firefighters at East Pierce have been hired from the volunteer ranks.

To join, volunteers must be 18 years or older, possess a high school diploma or GED and have a valid Washington state driver’s license, with an acceptable driving record. Volunteers must also live within the East Pierce Fire District boundaries; an area that covers from Edgewood and Milton to Wilkeson.

Following a written test and

interview process, the volunteer candidates will need to pass a rigorous physical examination. A background check will also be conducted.

Those selected will attend a firefighter academy and classes to become emergency medical technicians.

The fire district is also accepting applications for lateral residents. These are individuals who have already met the requirements of a volunteer firefighter, either with East Pierce or another fire department, and who will reside at a volunteer fire station. In addition to the volunteer requirements, residents must be 19 years or older, possess a State of Washington Certification of Competency Firefighter I or equivalent upon application, Washington State EMT-B certification upon application, proof of Health Care Provider CPR certification, department approved driver/operator training program upon application, and the ability to comply with the Resident Program Manual and Resident Agreement.

Volunteer and lateral resident applications are available at www.eastpiercefire. org.

The firefighters made an aggressive attack to stop the fire, while paramedics treated the resident for mild smoke inhalation. She refused transport to the hospital and no other injuries were reported.

According to Pierce County Fire Marshal Mark Carman, the fire originated in the kitchen

and the cause was ruled accidental. Damages are estimated at $42,000 for the structure and contents. The home is a total loss, Carman said.

Temporary alternative housing was provided to the resident by the American Red Cross.

Free classes available at National mommy group comes to Bonney Lake area Pierce County libraries

By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer

Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS) announced the opening of a new MOPs group in the Bonney Lake and Buckley area. MOPS is a nation-wide organization of community groups for mothers with children ages newborn to 6-years-old. The program is intended to provide a place where mothers can share the experiences of raising young children - the excitement, joys and struggles.

The Bonney Lake chapter will meet from 9:15 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. every other Tuesday at Rainier Hills Christian Fellowship, 23711 Entwhistle Road in Buckley. MOPS participants have the opportunity to enjoy a meal together and socialize with other women at meetings. Meetings often include creative activities, projects and presentations on relevant topics.

Trained teachers provide preschool-style childcare for babies over three months old

during the meetings. “Mentor Moms” are present to lend support in a multitude of ways, including assistance with babies not yet old enough for the nursery so moms are able to enjoy a snack or activity.

Treva Clay, a Rainier Hills MOPS member and group coordinator, said joining the mommy support group impacted her life and her family in unbelievably positive ways.

“In MOPS I’ve made lifelong friends, used the restroom by myself, savored a plate of food that is still warm, started and finished projects and crafts, laughed, cried, hugged a million times, and found the courage to move beyond my comfort zone,” Clay said. “Being a mother is hard work. There are joys and hardships, celebrations and pain. MOPS will help support and sustain you through all of it. No matter who you are or where you’ve been, you’re invited and we can’t wait to meet you.”

Several fundraising events, including a silent auction and a bake sale, have been held to raise funds for the new service. There is still time to help support the local MOPS group at their garage sale fundraiser from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday and Saturday at Rainier Hills Christian Fellowship. All proceeds will directly support services provided by Rainier Hills MOPS. MOPS meetings are broken up into semesters, the first of which begins September 10 and runs until January 28. The second semester will be from February 11 to June 10. There is a $35 registration fee and $5 per meeting dues. However, scholarships are available for women in need. For more information about upcoming fundraisers or joining Rainier Hills MOPS, please visit their website at www.rhmops.com.

Regular care can head off nasty parasites Welcome back to Buck ley Veterina r y Hospital’s monthly pet care column. This month, we are highlighting the significance of protecting and screening your furry family member for internal parasites. We will be shedding some light on the importance of regular fecal screens and preventative parasite control for your pets. The information in this piece is provided to you in part by IDEXX Laboratories, one of the United States’ largest pet diagnostic companies.

Human intestinal parasites in the U.S. have been virtually eradicated by improvements in sewage management, availability of clean drinking water, control of zoonotic parasites in food animals and the routine anthelmintic treatment of the human population. Dogs and cats have not yet been so fortunate.

Dr. Byron L. Blagburn, of Auburn University

College of Veterinary Medicine, has conducted surveys showing the level of infection among shelter dogs is similar to what it was 10 years ago, when the national average was more than 10 percent infected with hookworms, roundworms or whipworms. An ongoing national survey has also found more than 25 percent of cats have roundworms and more than 10 percent have hookworms. Even when pets are well taken care of and live in nice neighborhoods, there may be other animals (e.g., strays, foxes, coyotes) infected with parasites defecating in their yards and parks.

Normal behaviors like eating directly off the ground, drinking out of puddles, grooming, playing fetch and pouncing and biting items on the ground, predispose dogs and cats to parasitic infections all year long. Dogs and cats also acquire infections from infected prey (e.g., rabbits or mice) or fleas that serve as intermediate or paratenic hosts for different para-

Enumclaw Veterinary Hospital

sites.

Year-round internal parasite prevention products do not guarantee a pet will not have intestinal parasites. Recurring developmental stages of parasites, like hookworms, periodica lly repopulate the intestine, grow to adulthood and shed eggs in feces.

Eggs and cysts produced by parasites may not be susceptible to prevention or treatment by the products being administered.

Lastly, owner compliance in administering preventatives may be lacking.

In addition to having health implications

for your furry family member, some of the parasite stages shed in dog and cat feces are zoonotic, so removing them to prevent environmental contamination, thereby protecting you and your family, is important.

Larva of hookworms cause nasty skin lesions. Larval stages of ascarids can migrate through the liver, lungs and eyes, causing organ damage and blindness, respectively. With an estimated 3 million to 6 million people infected each year, ascarid infection is one of the leading causes of unilateral blindness.

A pet’s history and lifestyle gives some indication as to whether they are more or less likely to have certain parasites.

Important factors include age of pet, recent adoption from a shelter, frequenting of dog parks, administration of year-round preventives, hunting, presence of fleas, access to rodents or cockroaches and presence

of other medical problems. Even predominantly indoor pets are likely to be exposed to parasites.

T he C ompa n ion Animal Parasite Council recommends appropriate fecal examinations be performed on puppies and kittens at least two to four times during the first year of life and once or twice per year in adults.

We can only hope that someday the task of fecal examination will become exceedingly boring because we are no longer finding anything.

Transparency fight continues Those looking for a more transparent government are increasingly relying on public records to make it happen.

They hope the more documents they obtain the clearer their view of what’s really going on behind closed doors in school districts, city halls and county buildings.

But there are those throughout the public Jerry Cornfield sector convinced Guest columnist some of these Washingtonians are abusing the Public Records Act. An alliance of government forces — whose members often are the targets of the records — tried unsuccessfully earlier this year to rewrite the act to make it easier to repel requesters whose motives they question.

With the help of Republican and Democratic lawmakers, they pushed a bill to make it easier for public agencies to block requests and to limit the time spent compiling records.

Though the bill died in the legislative process, the matter reappeared in the state budget in the form of a provision to spend $25,000 contemplating ways to help governments deal with records requests they consider

Depends. It is our own personal obligation to stay informed. Did you know you can go to the city website and read about just about any and everything? Not tech savvy? Pick up the newspaper or go to the library or any city building and read it in print.

And you can attend city meetings and read agendas on the city website. And some stories, like the recent brush fire at Falling Waters, missing vulnerable teens and funeral processions for those taken too soon might actually be on television.

breaking news.

Notices are posted in city buildings and the library. You can read this newspaper at the library in print or online.

And according to BLMC 16.04.13 that expanded notice requirements in 2009, the city is required to give neighbors notice in certain situations, like that a permit has been filed. And if you are not within the circle of notification, you can notify the city that your public or private group is interested in a certain proposal or in the type of proposal being considered.

Lawmakers tapped the Ruckelshaus Center, a joint venture of the University of Washington and Washington State University, to facilitate a conversation between those in the alliance and those who viewed the failed bill as an unprecedented attack on citizens’ right to petition their government. By Dec. 15, the center is supposed to put forth recommendations.

The effort is just getting off the ground and folks at the center are tamping down expectations what will emerge.

Michael Kern, the center director, said this week the time frame is too tight to pull the parties together for fruitful face-to-face sessions presuming everybody on all sides is inter-

The game plan is to speak with 20 to 30 people who’ve been visible and vocal in the legislative conflict then prepare an assessment of the situation based on what center staff hears in the interviews.

“We’ll report what the diverse interests say,” he said. “It will not include our opinions because we don’t have opinions. We are a neutral third party.”

That’s not quite what Democratic Rep. Dean Takko of Longview envisioned when he helped persuade leaders of his party to put the proviso in the budget. Takko, who sponsored the failed bill, hoped the skilled forces at the center could blaze a trail lawmakers could not.

“Myself and quite a number of other people think there’s something we need to address,” said

Takko, a former Cowlitz County assessor and Cathlamet City Council member. “I don’t think anybody wants to hide public records. What we’re trying to do is stop frivolous requests.”

Now, he’ll take whatever they provide this winter as a possible starting point for legislation in 2014.

“In all honesty, we probably will not be a whole lot further than when the session ended,” he said. “It’s a big enough issue that we have to take some baby steps forward.”

As a defensive measure American inventions like

against capitalism’s ills, Congress in 1906 passed and President Teddy Roosevelt signed into law the Antiquities Act, giving presidents power to set aside important historic or scientific sites if they are on federal property.

Devil’s Tower in Wyoming was the first to be set aside by executive order. Every president since 1906 has set aside land for national monuments except Richard Nixon.

The most recent, The First State National Monument in Delaware, number 108, was set aside by President Obama in March of this year. In all, 757 areas of federal land have been set aside as wildernesses, totaling 109,511,966 acres, to protect them from commercial development.

The advantage for the president is that it does not require Congressional approval, often angering business interests who see profit in those monuments.

Of course, these decisions have not occurred without howls of protest and law-

suits. Conservatives historically have often strongly objected to these decisions because if an area is set aside for nation parks, monuments and wildernesses, it means American business interests will have to search elsewhere in the world for commodities such as oil, natural gas, and precious minerals, costing the industries, and taxpayers, billions of dollars in extra costs.

These decisions to preserve land for aesthetic reasons has also made the U.S. less self-sufficient and dependent on potentially hostile nations to supply strategic materials, especially in time of war.

Setting aside these federal lands also raises the cost of land development.

How, and for what reasons, our nation’s natural beauty should be preserved caused a split in the environmentalist movement.

John Muir, president of the Sierra Club, and National Forester Gifford Pinchot tangled over the Hetch Hetchy Valley in Yosemite

National Park. Muir wanted to preserve the valley as a national temple to nature, but Pinchot and the city of San Francisco wanted to turn it into a reservoir to provide water and power for the Bay Area.

It took three presidents before the issue was decided. Finally, under Woodrow Wilson, the dam was built and is still used as a reservoir, providing water and electricity for the San Francisco Bay region. Two Republican presidential administrations, Reagan and George W. Bush, have sought unsuccessfully to have the dam removed.

Watching the PBS special on National Parks gave me a sense of appreciation that we have a national government which can encourage capitalistic innovation and development and at the same time has the vision to protect and preserve our natural treasures.

spirit to Antagonize, don’t allow the discussion to make sense or come to any reasonable conclusion. Rather, they distract, poke fun at, change the focus, bring up nonsense, use words with shifted meanings, or do just about anything to frustrate the other party.

It is a defeatist mentality that seems more interested in using the moment of conflict to drag others down instead of actually dealing with the conflict itself. It is the primary method, for those who believe in such things, used by demons.

They know their days are

numbered and so conflict resolution in their favor is not possible, so their agenda is to make life more difficult for everyone else...and times of conflict are ripe for the picking.

In terms of mediating

conflict, this is the type that the Bible instructs to correct twice, then have nothing further to do with them, for they have an “unhealthy interest in quarrels”.

resolutions, usually in June or July. And you can compare last year’s TIP to this year’s proposed TIP. Open, accessible government.

The evolution of Downtown, Midtown and Eastown is ongoing, and to quote Michelle Obama, in her recent Parade Magazine article, speaking about new school lunch rules: “Change is hard—it’s as simple as that. You start making tweaks to something that has been a mainstay and you’re going to get some backlash.” As changes happen, these passionate dictums will continue to happen.

Politics in Focus

Rich Elfer’s column often presents thought provoking material and so it was again with his comments on dealing with conflict (“The five ways of handling conflict,” online Aug. 16). However, I might suggest that in spite of his “official” class on dealing with conflict, there is another approach, a sixth method, that is often employed in the real world.

Unlike the five he mentioned, which to varying degrees all seek some form

of resolution, the nightly news is full of yet another reality in times of conflict: to Antagonize.

Sad to say, there are many who run toward conflict for the primary purpose of fanning the flames. Unlike Competition, they don’t seek to win. Rather, they are content with fomenting discontent.

The current crisis in Egypt is a classic example of those who Antagonize in times of conflict. Those

groups who are burning Christian buildings are not trying to win, they are trying to incite a reaction. As one pundit mused, they are trying to turn their victims into scapegoats, but so far it appears to be backfiring.

When someone turns a gun on a crowd, like at a school or large place of assembly, they are dealing with some type of internal conflict for which their actions are not designed to bring resolution. That is why they often take their actions all the way to the grave.

notice of hearing about the TIP was posted on the city website July 11 for the hearing to be held July 23 at the council meeting. People commented on July 23. No surprises here; there were opportunities to look at the TIP for about three weeks before the hearing. In looking at council minutes, it was actually discussed at the joint council/planning commission meeting in April.

And remember, you can attend Community Development Committee meetings to preview what is in the pipeline, just as you can attend any committee, commission or

board meeting, other than executive sessions of the council. The council and executive branch must be able to discuss sensitive issues like personnel or real estate matters confidentially.

If you look back through council meeting minutes, you will find that the discussions similar to what took place at the July 23 council meeting have also taken place previously with downtown property owners as far back as 2008, again in 2010, and 2011.

If you look back over the years, you will also see that the TIP happens on an annual basis in the list of

Which is more important, saving the environment or creating new industries and jobs? This issue was one of the main themes recently in PBS’s six-hour presentation on the National Parks and how they came to be.

As one would expect on PBS, the story, an excellent production by Ken Burns, emphasized the need to preserve America’s “crown jewels” – Yosemite, Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon and the 55 others, including Mount Rainier – from commercialization.

The show’s repeated warning, virtually a mantra, was to avoid the mistake of what happened with the commercialization of Niagara Falls.

Private individuals came to the falls, saw an opportunity to make money through selling electricity to the public and vistas or souvenirs to visiting tourists, thus cheapening the Niagara’s natural wonder with crass capitalistic commercialism.

Twenty-one years for Marysville shooting

By Rikki King The Daily Herald

A man who accidentally shot one of his own crew during a drug-related home-invasion robbery in Marysville in 2011 was sentenced Friday to more than two decades in prison.

Johnathan Frohs, 45, of Bonney Lake, likely will die while incarcerated, said his defense attorney, Jon Scott.

Frohs weighs 400 pounds and uses a wheelchair due to a hip injury. His street name is “Bigfoot.”

Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Bruce Weiss ordered the 21-year sentence as recommended by prosecutors and the defense.

Frohs was charged with manslaughter, robbery, kidnapping, burglary and assault. He pleaded guilty

earlier this week.

A number of codefendants in the robbery have pleaded guilty or have been convicted by juries. One more trial is set for next month.

The robbery took place Dec. 1, 2011. Frohs and others held a man and wife at gunpoint inside their home. The attack reportedly was retaliation for a drug rip-off involving some

mutual acquaintances.

During the commotion, Frohs shot a man who entered the house wearing a hockey mask.

The man was Patrick “Bucky” Buckmaster, 30, a member of Frohs’ party.

Buckmaster’s body was hidden in a shallow grave near Granite Falls.

In a letter to the judge, Buckmaster’s family described him as a good-

hearted man who was his mother’s best friend. He had a daughter.

Scott noted that Buckmaster participated in the robbery by choice, and his killing was not intentional. The defense argued that Frohs didn’t mean for the gun to go off.

Only Frohs knows for sure, the judge said. Weiss said he considered a longer sentence because Frohs had

returned to crime after a lengthy prison stay for a home-invasion robbery in 1994.

Frohs spoke brief ly and said he was sorry for Buckmaster’s death.

“It’s something I have to live with for the rest of my life,” he said.

Fewer concerned about dangerous driving annual increase in seven years, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

“Motorists may be growing more complacent about potential safety risks behind the wheel,” said Peter Kissinger, President and CEO of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. “A ‘do as I say, not as I do’ attitude remains common with many motorists consistently admitting to engaging in the same dan-

gerous behaviors for which they would condemn other drivers.”

Survey results during the previous four years show decreasing concern for dangerous driving behaviors: The number of people who believe driving after drinking is a serious threat declined from a near universal 90 percent in 2009 to 69 percent in 2012.

The number of people who consider drowsy driv-

Linn FROM 1

prime suspect in a shooting that took place July 27 during a home invasion in Spanaway.

Troyer said Linn avoided capture twice this month, once fleeing from deputies on foot and later on a stolen motorcycle. During the first incident, Linn dropped a loaded firearm t hat was recovered by police.

Following Thursday’s arrest, detectives reportedly found a loaded handgun in Linn’s

motel room.

Troyer said the Sheriff’s Office had heard Linn was headed to Buckley, intending to kill three members of a family who had information that could incriminate him in the Spanaway incident.

Deputies were keeping an eye on several sites, including the West Main Motel, where they encountered Linn Thursday morning.

98 percent of more than a hundred respondents were in favor of preserving the creek watershed in some capacity. About 30 citizens expressed an interest in learning more, leading to the formation of the original preservation group.

“After 10 years, we’ve had small successes … but we really needed some rejuvenation,” Betzer said.

Affiliation with the Certified Wildlife Habitat program funds the team for community education and employment of sustainable gardening practices. The Federation also provides access to Habitat Steward training workshops and registration of properties as certified wildlife habitats.

The group has already raised its public profile.

Members wearing their team t-shirts have made appearances at public meetings and the group had an information booth at Bonney Lake Days, with presentations and educational children’s activities.

On Thursday, the Betzers and some other habitat team members attended a tour of county projects to restore salmon populations, one of which was a project to remove berms on the west side of the Fennel Creek.

Further information about the Fennel Creek Habitat Team can be obtained by contacting record keeper Sheri Dotson Parker at sharsparrs@ gmail.com.

Ed Troyer, a spokesman for the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office, said Linn has a history of violence and would have committed murder had deputies not stopped him.

Linn is certainly no stranger to law enforcement. He has 13 felony convictions on his record is considered the

Betzer and her husband were founding members of the informal Fennel Creek Preservation Group, after moving to the area in 2002 and learning more about the changing natural landscape. Two years later, they were invited to join an advisory committee on the creek. They soon after issued a survey asking city residents what they thought about development and its effects on the watershed. According to Betzer,

ing a very serious threat declined from 71 percent in 2009 to 46 percent in 2012.

The number of people who believe that texting or emailing while driving is a very serious threat declined from 87 percent in 2009 to 81 percent in 2012. The number of people who admit to texting while driving increased from 21 percent to 26 percent during the same period.

The number of people who consider red-light running to be completely

unacceptable declined from 77 percent in 2009 to 70 percent in 2012. More than one-third (38 percent) admitted to running a red light within the previous month.

“We have made great strides in recent years to reduce road deaths, but there are still too many needless fatalities caused by dangerous driving,” said Jake Nelson, AAA director of traffic safety advocacy and research. “It is clear that more must be done

to address the dangers of drunk, aggressive and drowsy driving to stem this concerning trend.”

Someone dies on America’s roadways every 15 minutes.

Fatalities include drivers, passengers, pedestrians, cyclists and every other kind of road user. Car crashes affect young people disproportionately by killing more people aged 5-34 than any other cause of death. More

Americans are less likely to perceive a serious threat from dangerous driving behaviors such as drunk, aggressive or drowsy driving, according to an analysis of four years of public surveys conducted by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety.

Police Blotter All persons in the police blotter are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

NARCOTICS: At 12:48 p.m.

Aug. 12, an anonymous tipster reported methamphetamine activity at a 210th Avenue East residence. A vehicle in the driveway returned several misdemeanor arrest warrants for the registered owner. While speaking with the driver of the vehicle, a woman resembling the owner walked toward the highway. The officer caught up with her on the south shoulder of state Route 410 and confirmed that, while she was not the person she was originally believed to be, she also had a warrant for her arrest out of Tacoma Police Department. She was transported to Fife jail for booking.

SHOPLIFTING: At 12 p.m.

Aug. 13, an officer responded to a 410 grocer

in reference to a shoplifting incident. The suspect, a juvenile male, had placed several bottles of beer in a hand basket and removed them from the store without paying.

Another officer located the suspect vehicle in the Allan Yorke parking lot, and subsequently found the suspect in the skate park. The beer was disposed of and the suspect was transported to Remann Hall for booking on charges of third-degree theft and minor in possession of alcohol.

BURGLARY: At 5:46 a.m.

Aug. 15, three officers responded to an alarm at a local restaurant. No one was inside and the owner, when contacted, found nothing out of place. He pulled up security video that showed an intruder enter the business and take something out of the freezer, later confirmed to be lobster.

The case was forwarded to investigations for follow-up.

HIT AND RUN: At 9:05 p.m.

Aug. 15, two officers were alerted to a hit and run on 410. A caller

www.blscourierherald.com

reported his car was rear ended and the driverat-cause fled the scene.

They met the caller and his passenger on 241st Avenue Court East, where they had followed the suspect. Officers contacted the suspect, who admitted to the hit and run. He was cited and police cleared the scene after completing a collision report.

THEFT: At 12:43 a.m. Aug. 16, an employee of a local bar reported a theft of business property. A customer had broken the punching bag on an arcade game and taken the bag home “as a souvenir.”

The suspect was a new patron to the business and a concrete identity could not be established.

MALICIOUS MISCHIEF: On Aug. 16, a woman reported her car had been keyed and dented while parked at Allan Yorke Park. An officer confirmed several obscene and threatening messages scratched into the driver side door, and a dent on the trunk lid. She said she had reported anonymous menacing

texts to Sumner police in the past, but did not know who would want to threaten her.

LOST PROPERTY: At 8:24 p.m. on Aug. 16, an officer contacted a caller about lost property.

The woman was patronizing a 410 retailer and lost her keys sometime during her shopping trip. Bystanders outside the store advised they had seen a key lanyard hanging from a tree at the edge of the WSU Forest. She found her key lanyard on the tree, minus keys, and briefly searched the woods to no avail. After obtaining a spare set, she determined nothing was missing from inside her car.

DUI: On Aug. 17, dispatch advised police of a reckless pickup entering the city of Bonney Lake from the west. The truck was traveling about 100 miles per hour and had already forced four cars off the road before stopping at the Sky Island Drive intersection. The registered owner had a suspended license, an ignition interlock requirement and

a warrant for DUI. Arriving officers observed the suspect truck being chain-towed by a blue pick-up and initiated an emergency stop. The suspect showed signs of intoxication during contact and witnesses stated he seemed intoxicated. After his warrant arrest, the suspect was processed for DUI. He was charged for DUI, driving while license suspended and violation of an ignition interlock requirement.

DUID: On Aug. 17, an officer was dispatched to a juvenile detained by an off-duty Kent officer on suspicion of DUI. The offduty officer said he had seen the teen smoking marijuana while driving, and nearly rear end another car. The Bonney Lake officer had the suspect perform voluntary field sobriety tests, which showed signs of impairment. The suspect was released to a guardian at the police station after processing. Marijuana paraphernalia was confiscated for evidence.

DOMESTIC DISPUTE: On Aug. 18, officers re-

sponded to a man and woman arguing in the parking lot of a 410 retailer. A caller advised he believed the man had grabbed the woman’s arm and was possibly reaching for a weapon in his waistband. Officers found the couple with a young child. The woman confirmed that they were arguing but not yelling, and denied the man had grabbed her; a search showed no weapons on his person.

A records check showed both adults had warrants for their arrest, and they were both taken into custody for transport to Pierce County jail. The child’s returning mother also had a misdemeanor arrest warrant, but she was not arrested as there was no one else to take custody of her son. She was advised to call a licensed driver to pick her up.

WEAPON VIOLATION: Shortly before 3 p.m. Aug. 19, three officers responded to a South Prairie Road fast food restaurant, where a man and woman See blotter, Page 14

Missing girl found in Auburn

By Theresa De Lay Staff Writer

Maliika Andrus ran away from the Bonney Lake area group home where she resides on Sunday, Aug.18.

Pierce County Sheriff ’s Department led the search for Andrus. She was found Tuesday at a Starbucks in Auburn after a witness rec-

ognized her and notified Auburn police. She was evaluated at a local hospital and later released back to the group home.

Attainable health care coverage for small businesses First, starting Jan. 1, employers will be able to purchase health insurance through the online health insurance marketplace for small businesses, known as SHOP. The SHOP Marketplace will offer employers a choice of qualified health plans from different private health insurers and make it easier for employers to make side-by-side comparisons between these plans, based on price and benefits.

SHOP also offers employers and their employees access to health insurance plans that must include a package of “Essential Health Benefits” like coverage for doctor visits, preventive care, hospitalization and prescriptions.

Many small employers may be eligible for tax credits of up to 50 percent of their premium costs if they choose to purchase coverage through SHOP.

Business Notes Calvin W. Goings Columnist

On contact, the woman denied doing drugs and informed an officer of a Buckley warrant. The man was uncooperative and police forcibly removed him from the vehicle for cuffing. While he was being removed, a loaded handgun fell out of his waistband onto the ground. A search turned up several pills, later confirmed to be

painkillers. He said the gun belonged to a friend.

He also denied smoking pills in the car, though another officer found paraphernalia in the vehicle. A records check turned up a felony warrant. Both suspects were arrested and booked, the male being additionally charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance and felon in possession of a firearm.

America’s 28 million small businesses are the backbone of our economy, creating two out of every three net new jobs and employing half of America’s workforce. From mom-and-pop stores and restaurants, to high-tech startups and productive manufacturers, small businesses are helping to drive the Washington economy and create jobs in our local communities.

Many small business owners consider their employees to be part of their family, and providing benefits such as health care is one important tool they have to help retain their talented workforce and compete for skilled employees.

The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) is committed to giving small business owners the resources they need to start and grow a business, including access to critical information about how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) works.

Under the Affordable Care Act, small employers will have more options.

The agony of summer homework Living with Gleigh Gretchen Leigh Columnist

came to a conclusion of my own: “It won’t hurt you, do it anyway.” I even offered to be the parent to drive the kids around on a kind of city scavenger hunt assignment. It’s a class on human geography and they were assigned to find different unique places of his-

tory and infrastructures that binds us as a society. They had to have a picture of one of their team members in front of each place.

It turned out to be a lot of fun. And we weren’t alone. As we pulled into a gated community and asked if we could take a picture, the attendant told us they’d had an

onslaught of students doing the same thing all week.

Even though we had fun doing this project with her friends, my daughter complained about the remainder of the homework packet and how the social studies teacher gave them fifty pages, while the English and science teacher had only given a cou-

Oh the agony of summer homework! My daughters just hate having summer homework. They feel it interferes with their busy summer schedules: playing video games all night in the family room, hanging out in their rooms all day playing video games, watching whatever their latest movie obsession is over and over, and complaining to their friends on Skype about summer homework.

I have mixed feelings about summer homework. When teachers assign students summer homework, they also assign the homework to the parents. In order to get the kids to do it, we have to bug them about it, remind them where we are in the summer so they plan ahead, and as it was this year, we may have to take them somewhere to complete the homework.

I know a mom who refuses to let her kids do summer homework. Her reasoning is, “If the teachers are not contractually obligated to work during the summer, the students should not have to work either.”

I asked my sister, who is a teacher, what she thought about it. She said, “Every place I’ve worked has given out summer homework. There is good research out there that shows that the long break is detrimental to memory. ”As a teacher, I don’t like the long break because kids do forget a lot. I also don’t like the sudden onslaught of grading that comes in right at the beginning of the school year when kids turn in their summer assignment. Do I think it is necessary, yes, and more so now in the age of electronics where kids are less likely to read all summer, or play outside, or work, or do chores, or be involved in true projects, or go to a camp or art class or something, or be busier than using computers and gaming equipment. ”I’m not sure about the thinking that it cuts into family time because kids spend a lot of the summer laying around when the adults in the family are working and running lives. I always suggest that the students set up either a 45 minute window of time every day to get the summer work done or one portion of a day once a week to address it. ”The question I always ask parents in matters like this is what they want for their children and if they are willing to guide their children’s learning year around.”

So with both positions filed in my head, I pulled on my

ple. I tried to explain to her it probably wasn’t fifty pages of actual work, but just reading.

She wouldn’t hear it; the teacher was just mean.

Then when she finished the remainder of the packet, she said, “Mom, you were right. It was mostly just reading.”

I was right? I don’t know about you, but my summer is complete.

District brings Chromebooks into classrooms Staff Writer

The Sumner School District has bought up 1,500 Google Chromebook laptops as part of a “cutting edge” technology initiative for third and fourth grade students.

In 2007, voters approved a $114 million capital projects bond issuance for the modernization, expansion and improvement of six district campuses. Five years later in October 2012, a modernized Maple Lawn

STudy FROM 9 than 2.3 million people annually also suffer serious injuries from crashes.

The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety analyzed four years (2009-2012) of survey data collected for the annu-

Elementary School opened its doors and concluded the “Promises Made, Promises Kept” renovation campaign. Approximately $4.9 million remained in the projects fund, available for other approved investments in education.

At an Aug. 14 meeting, the school board approved the district’s three-year technology plan and, with it, the initiative to put netbooks into the hands of students. The idea was to eliminate the shortcomings of computer labs, carts and

other methods that divide a small number of machines amongst a large body of students.

“When we want to look up something, we want to look it up that moment,” said Sandy Maynard, the district’s chief technology officer. “Not three days later when it’s your class’s day in the computer lab.”

Chromebooks are laptops that run on a Linuxpowered and browserbased operating system.

They lean heavily — almost completely — on Internet

cloud computing: hard disk software is replaced by browser-based apps and Google encourages users to store files on its cloud drive. Consequently, the machines are light and cheap; the Samsung models purchased by the school sell for $249 a unit on the retail market. Wireless internet bandwidth has been “beefed up” on every elementary campus in the district except Donald Eismann, Maynard said.

“I’ve had a chance to see kids with these before

al Traffic Safety Culture Index, which tracks how the public’s views and perceptions of traffic safety issues change over time.

More than 11,000 surveys were administered to Americans aged 16 and up from 2009-2012 to determine the results.

Established by AAA in

1947, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety is a 501(c) (3) not-for-profit, publicly-supported, charitable, educational and research organization. Dedicated to saving lives and reducing injuries on our roads, the Foundation’s mission is to prevent crashes and save lives through research

and education about traffic safety. The Foundation has funded over 200 research projects designed to discover the causes of traffic crashes, prevent them, and minimize injuries when they do occur. Visit www. aaafoundation.org for more information on this and other research.

and it’s amazing to see how quickly they adapt,” Superintendent Sara Johnson said. “It will be interesting to see how many teachers are native users …

I think kids will be teaching teachers.”

Johnson and Maynard immediately foresaw the laptop’s classroom applications for assignment sharing through Google Drive, and for meeting Common Core standards for online testing beginning in 2015.

Applications beyond those

will be up to teacher experimentation.

Teachers will be meeting at the district office Friday morning for an introduction to the new laptops.

Teachers will reconvene sometime later in the school year to assess what applications have worked, and what haven’t, Maynard said.

Success with the third and fourth grades could translate to an expansion of the program in the future.

Garden tasks for the end of summer The end of August is when the garden begins to change outfits, preparing for the cooler season ahead with warmer colors and a slower metabolism.

This is when you need to savor the last weeks of the summer season. Don’t just dutifully perform yard chores; decide to enjoy the process as well. Remind yourself that in just a few months when it Is raining and cold, you’re gonna miss this.

Tasks to Enjoy this Week Water: Go outside on a hot night and take your time watering your thirsty plants with the hose. Yes, it is more water efficient to use a soaker hose or drip system, especially in vegetable gardens, but there is something so satisfying about watching water soak into dry soil. You can sometimes see a parched plant perk up right before your eyes.

August is when the roots of full-grown container plants are smashed into containers, leaving little room for storing moisture in the potting soil. Pots that were fine at the beginning of summer with a cool drink once every few days may now need a drink twice a day. Indulge those heavy drinkers and admire how they’ve put on weight over the summer.

Harvest: Pluck a very ripe tomato right from the vine and eat it while standing in the garden. Lean over if you don’t want the juice to dribble down your chin.

Sun-warmed, home-grown tomatoes have much more flavor than tomatoes that must be shipped to the grocery store. If your tomato crop is still in the dream stage, visit a farmer’s market and celebrate homegrown flavor from a local grower.

Not everyone can grow vegetables but everyone can support local vegetable growers.

Arrange: Snip a vase of cut flowers from your garden and share the bloom-

s E n dh t s e Congt ust 30t Au

The Compleat Home Gardener Marianne Binetti Columnist

ing bounty. You don’t even need to grow traditional cut flowers to compose a small bouquet of summer beauty.

It is now fashionable to add everything from blackberry vines, grassy seed heads and laurel foliage to any vessel that holds water and call it a “contemporary design.”

Even your most annoying weeds can be used as ”structure” in a vase of cut flowers. Place a few stems of horsetail around a cluster of weedy grasses and you’ll have an arrangement that may gladden your heart as you watch the contents slowly die.

Display your flower arrangement of volunteer plants outdoors so the neighbors will think you are growing weeds on purpose – just to be trendy when it comes to flower arrangements.

Stake: Use metal rebar stakes to corral and support your huge dahlias, delphiniums, anemones and other tall, late-summer bloomers.

The flowers of fall often fall over themselves and past history proves that perennials tipped over onto the lawn can end up as confetti in the mower blades. Plants should be staked before they need it – but staking a wayward bloomer in late summer can mean an autumn encore of color.

Season: Harvest fresh herbs on a summer morning after the dew has dried from the foliage. Place stems of cut mint, basil, oregano and parsley in a glass near the kitchen counter. Using fresh herbs instead of salt and pepper to season foods is another reason to celebrate the summer season.

To flavor sauces and stews, tie the stems of fresh herbs together with a thick thread and let the herbal bouquet simmer in the sauce. The string allows the chef to

remove all the herbs just before serving and to skip the dicing, chopping and slicing.

Photograph: Take some pictures of your garden. Late summer photos tell the visual story of what plants you need to move and

which color or vegetable combinations worked well.

Garden photos are a great way to add inspiration to a winter indoors spent dreaming and scheming about the plans for your garden next summer.
