PTA finances under review Gordon Elementary School in Kingston By KIPP ROBERTSON and RICHARD WALKER Herald staff
KINGSTON — A panel of PTA members conducted a review of Gordon Elementary PTA’s finances Jan. 17, after some discrepancies were alleged. Cindy Kleinfelter, Washington State PTA director for Region 1, said the review panel’s findings would be forwarded to the local PTA’s board of directors, which would decide the next course of action. “Until the board of directors can meet and review the findings, there’s not going to be anything to talk about,” she said. “The review could prove nothing is wrong, or that there are irregularities. ‘Irregularities’ is a gray word — you can have an irregularity as far as certain procedures weren’t followed, but there is no missing money. Every review is different.” She said law enforcement would get involved if there are irregularities and “the board asks to go that direction.” Kleinfelter last talked to the Herald at about 11 a.m. Jan. 17, as the review was being conducted. Kleinfelter did not return followup phone calls from the Herald by deadline Jan. 30. Gordon PTA President Marta Michalski did not return a phone call nor an email by deadline Jan. 30.

Outcry over annexation Residents concerned about potential impacts to property rights By RICHARD D. OXLEY
roxley@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — The Port of Poulsbo has entertained the idea of expanding its boundaries for nearly one year. Little, if any, opposition to the notion presented itself during that time. In fact, only a handful of supportive voices were raised at port meetings and a town hall on the topic. But at a Jan. 24 forum hosted by the North Kitsap Herald at Poulsbo City Hall, the opposition finally showed up. “All of us waterfront homeowners, we got the DNR, we got the Army Corps of Engineers if you

Joe Prevost, whose family has lived on Pearson Point in Liberty Bay for 25 years, tells the Poulsbo Port Commission why he’s opposed to annexation, at a Jan. 24 forum. The annexation measure is on the Feb. 11 ballot. Richard D. Oxley / Herald got a dock, we got the county, we got septic people, and now you (want to) put another layer — you guys — over that,” said Joe Prevost, whose family has lived on Pearson Point in Liberty Bay for 25
years. “We’re worried. We got enough already.” He added, “This is a 71 percent increase (in the port’s taxing area). I’m very opposed to this.” Prevost lives in one of a few neighborhoods along

POULSBO — Federal law requires that you be able to call 911 on your cell phone, even if you have no minutes or carrier. That’s right: Turn on a cell phone. If it’s got a signal, you should be able to 911. Local, state and federal emergency management officials take 911 access seriously. So, when Ash and Angie Daignault of Suquamish weren’t able to connect to 911 when their 10-month-old daughter had a seizure Jan. 16, the incident started an investigation that ultimately

NKSD wants your input on budget priorities POULSBO — The North Kitsap School Board hosts a Community Café in the North Kitsap High School Commons on Feb. 6, from 6-7:30 p.m. The topic: Priority setting for the 2014-15 operating budget. The meeting will include small-group discussions with each board member. The school district will also ask for community input on the 2014-15 operating budget through an online survey, at www. nkschools.org, from Feb. 12-21. Public forums on the budget are scheduled Feb. 12, 7-8 p.m., in the Kingston High School Commons; and Feb. 19, 7-8 p.m., in the North Kitsap High School Commons.
Public meeting Feb. 3 on drug use in Poulsbo POULSBO — A public meeting is scheduled Feb. 3, 7 p.m., at City Hall regarding neighborhood drug abuse awareness. “This meeting was asked for by residents of Fjord [and] Old Town, but everyone is invited,” Mayor Becky Erickson emailed. “We will discuss the formation of neighborhood watches, how to report suspicious behavior, and resources available to keep people safe in their homes.” Erickson said community meetings — this one is the third — are part of the four-part plan introduced in November to combat illegal drug use in Poulsbo.
Wagner filling in as principal at Poulsbo Elementary POULSBO — Doug Wagner is filling in for Claudia Alves as principal of Poulsbo Elementary School. The North Kitsap School District is investigating Alves’ repeated use of the N-word in discussions with a student and his parents about how the word differs from other words. Wagner took over as a substitute principal on Jan. 20, according to See LOCAL NEWS, Page A3

Local news
Continued from page A2 district spokeswoman Jenn Markaryan. Wagner has substituted in the district before. He previously worked for the Bremerton School District. Alves is on paid leave during the investigation. Superintendent Patty Page said the leave is not considered discipline. Alves was placed on administrative leave Jan. 21, according to an email to parents from Page. The decision to place Alves on leave was made that day, according to Page. The district has an independent investigator looking into the matter.
Coffee kiosk knocked off-kilter by truck PORT GAMBLE — Gamble Bay Coffee was off-kilter when owner Lynn Wayland showed up Jan. 24. The Port Gamble coffee stand was leaning, partially knocked off its foundation. The family-run business has been closed since. “We know it was a hit and run,” Wayland said. Because of the amount of damage, and location of the damage on the stand,
Wayland suspects a semitruck or other large vehicle hit it. She said the suspected hit and run happened not long before she arrived at the stand at 4:29 a.m., Jan. 24. Wayland believes the driver of a vehicle used the space on Highway 104 near the coffee stand to turn around. She said a lot of people use that area to make U-turns. The coffee stand is located near the shoulder off the eastbound lane (which turns to the southbound lane) of Highway 104, next to Mike’s Four Star BBQ. Equipment and numerous bottles of syrup were damaged or destroyed. The gutter on the side of the building facing the road was smashed, along with a portion of the roof. The coffee stand was leaning toward the road. On Jan. 28, Wayland was waiting for a crane to arrive to reposition her business. She hopes to see the business up and running as soon as everything is cleaned up and safe. “The sooner the better,” she said. “For every day we’re closed, it’s more of a loss of business.” The coffee stand sees a lot of traffic and is a stop for people driving to and from the Hood Canal Bridge, and to and from Kingston.

PTA
Continued from page A1 wrote to the Herald the evening of Jan. 29: “… my understanding is that the PTA officers have followed all proper procedures. They contacted their region director and the [Washington State PTA] office with some support questions. They have conducted a financial review.” Earlier, Kleinfelter said she participated in the review as an observer. The review was conducted in the school’s conference room by two PTA members who are not board members and are not signers on the PTA’s bank account. She said “a few other” PTA members observed the review. At the time, Kleinfelter said “it’s too early to speculate” whether there are any irregularities. She said the review was being conducted because “it’s time for a mid-year review” and because irregularities may have occurred. Asked how long a review takes, she said, “Depending on how organized the books are, an hour to a couple of hours.” The financial review followed three resignations within the last two months, one of them not related to
the review. Star Ferrer, a former PTA volunteer, said Jan. 17 she planned to resign at the next board meeting after discovering “discrepancies” in the PTA’s budget reports. The next meeting, Jan. 21, was cancelled, according to the PTA’s Facebook page. A source who spoke on condition of anonymity said the discrepancies are related to gift cards, known as scrip, that are sold for fundraising. The PTA buys the gift cards at a discount rate from a national program, sells them for the full value and keeps the difference. The gift cards can be used for a variety of purchases — including clothing, gas, groceries, housewares, movies — and are reloadable. School parent Amy Berg said she served for eight years as Gordon PTA volunteer coordinator but resigned two months ago “because of issues with the new principal.” She said the gift cards are kept in a safe in the PTA office at Gordon, and that approximately 15 people knew the combination to the PTA safe in which the gift cards are stored. The PTA is operated independently from the school. However, the office
Page A3
“It’s too early to speculate [about discrepancies].” — PTA regional director Cindy Kleinfelter
key is kept in the school office, Berg said, and any PTA member needing access to the office simply asks for the key. On Jan. 17, Kleinfelter said one PTA board member resigned. Regarding the identity of the board member and his or her position, she said, “I can’t comment on that right now,” but Berg later said her friend Heather Snelson had resigned as board treasurer. Snelson was listed as treasurer Jan. 17 on the PTA’s webpage. On the same page Jan. 22, there was no treasurer listed and Shelbe Thibeault was listed as co-secretary. Berg returned the Herald’s phone call placed to Snelson Jan. 29. She said her friend has four children, including a fivemonth-old baby, and is “spending time with her family, praying that whatever misunderstanding there is is remedied quickly and she can go back and work for the kids like she has for eight years.” According to
Washington State PTA guidelines, “Whenever a PTA has reason to believe there is a problem with its funds there are two basic steps the PTA must take immediately: 1. Conduct a financial review. If the financial review verifies that funds are missing: 2. Call your region director …” The local PTA board of directors must take “every reasonable step to collect or recover the missing funds,” the guidelines state. At some point, the board must report the missing funds to its membership. The guidelines also direct PTA members to not, under any circumstance, “seek the advice of the school district, principals, or [prosecuting] attorney; make any public or private statements; or take any action without the approval of the board of directors meeting in a formal session.” According to the state PTA, its insurance carrier will only reimburse a local PTA for loss if it conducts an annual financial review; a non-signer on the bank account reviews, signs and dates the monthly bank statements; and a police report is filed when money is missing.

Our stands on the Feb. 11 ballot Port of Poulsbo Proposition 1
he North Kitsap Herald supports Port of Poulsbo Proposition 1 for these reasons. The port could do more to encourage economic development and jobs growth, and that’s good for everybody. The port could do more to make Liberty Bay a healthier place, and that’s good for everybody. One resident said the bay is healthier than it’s ever been, but you can’t harvest shellfish in the bay, creosoted pilings need to be replaced, five derelict vessels have been removed, and we need someone to ensure anchor-outs are not dumping in the bay. Residents of the annexation areas should have a say in the day-to-day business of the port, particularly decisions that affect them. As constituents, the port would be directly responsible to them. At the Jan. 24 forum at City Hall, some residents spoke about port districts’ authority under the law and what port districts “may” do. That scares them. But there are many things government bodies “may” do. What they “do” depends on the desire and will of their constituents. The levy is 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed property valuation. We think that’s a good investment for the support to our local economy, environment and public representation that will result.
T
North Kitsap School District Proposition 1
he North Kitsap Herald supports renewal of the North Kitsap School District’s maintenance and operations levy. Revenue from the levy — $2.83 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation — comprises 23 percent of the school district’s budget. Renewal of the levy will maintain programs and services in local schools, and help to pay for teachers and staff, operational costs, technology, programs and curriculum that aren’t fully funded by the State of Washington. Needless to say, failure to approve this measure would be disastrous to local schools, which have already endured years of reductions in expenses and staffing. This four-year levy will replace the current levy approved in February 2010. We encourage a vote of approval.
For the Record The student who had the discussion with Poulsbo Elementary School Principal Claudia Alves in which she used the Nword is 11. His age was incorrect in the editorial, “Understanding why painful words are painful,” (page A4, Jan. 24 Herald) but correct in the page A1 story, “Principal on leave.”

Reasons to support annexation proposal Thank you for attending the Herald’s forum on annexation by the Port of Poulsbo on Jan. 24. For me, the comments were helpful in understanding diverse views. Let me offer several thoughts on port expansion. While the port is fiscally sound, it is operating in break-even mode. Almost every penny of revenue received in 2014 is committed to operations and maintenance. Our creosote breakwater has a limited life — and a $7 million to $12 million replacement cost. Expanding the district to include the entire city limits and the Liberty Bay shoreline — the real beneficiaries of port stewardship — will add annually to our revenue flow and the port’s ability to obtain grants and loans to cover major capital projects, such as breakwater replacement and dock work. The port has retained a consulting firm to advise us on purchasing the old city hall property. The city has given the port a three-month option to purchase this property. Many agree that a small, downtown hotel with multi-level parking, shops and even condos might work. With the port’s statutory mandate for economic development in our community, we can make significant contributions to the local economy and the Liberty Bay community. In the minds of some, the business acumen of the port was tarnished several years ago by its purchase of the old armory property, now converted into a parking lot on Jensen Way. This year, we expect to see more boat trailers and RVs in the port’s lot and away from Anderson Parkway. I am hopeful that, in recognition of the economic turnaround, this property will serve in the next few years as a sound investment for the port and the community. Additionally, prospects for development of the old city hall site will very likely benefit from this well-located parking lot with electric-vehicle charging stations. The real issue before voters on Feb. 11 is who will lend a hand to support the Port of Poulsbo and our scenic bay.

million asset for the community and returns more than seven times in revenue what it receives in taxes from Port District residents — not bad tax efficiency for a small-town operation. Currently, only one-half of the city residents and no big-box stores contribute by way of property taxes to running the port. The tax levy of 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed property valuation that would be paid in this enlarged Port District would expand key opportunities available to the port to promote tourism, economic development and job creation, cleaner water and updated facilities. I believe this is good for the entire Liberty Bay community. Stephen Swann Commissioner Port of Poulsbo
Opposed to Port of Poulsbo annexation I am writing to oppose the enlargement of the Port of Poulsbo boundary (Proposition 1 on the Feb. 11 ballot). The proposed annexation more than doubles the size of the current port and includes an immediate tax increase of 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed value of all annexed properties. The port did not engage the communities that would be affected by this expansion and only held one public meeting last week. Proposition 1 is expected to generate $190,000, which the port commissioners said would be used to expand and upgrade port facilities, including docks for seaplanes and cruise ships. Beyond the proposed tax assessment, port districts have broad powers as defined in Title 53 RCW. Among other
things, the port can condemn properties, acquire, construct, install and improve sewer and water systems. They may also declare local improvement districts within port boundaries for development of water and sewer systems. If your property becomes part of a new local improvement district, you will pay an additional special tax assessment over a 10-year period to pay for these improvements. Proposition 1 is a bad deal for property owners. I recommend a “no” vote on Port of Poulsbo Proposition 1. David Ellingson Poulsbo Editor’s note: The Jan. 24 meeting was the third public meeting regarding the proposed annexation area. The Port Commission approved the boundaries on Sept. 25 at its regular meeting, and held a town hall forum at City Hall on Oct. 25. n

Living outside the Poulsbo city limits but near Liberty Bay, we have been asked to allow the Port of Poulsbo authority to represent us in all matters considering the well-being of the bay by annexation. Also, to pay taxes and have the opportunity to vote in or out the current commissioners for the privilege. The port is committed to protection of the downtown waterfront, bay and harbor and serves as a steward of the Liberty Bay community, promoting environmental preservation and restoration, improved public access and public spaces. This sounds like a win, win, right? Probably not. The port’s 2013 Comprehensive Plan states that ports are in a unique position to be the citizen’s voice in matters of local, state and federal policy. Port districts were See LETTERS, Page A5

Continued from page A4 specifically created to protect property rights and will not burden citizens with additional regulation. It seems very disingenuous to make the claim of no additional regulations to the proposed areas of annexation, considering the scope and breadth of the RCWs under which port authorities operate. The port has the authority to acquire property, even by eminent domain, levy and collect assessments, to acquire, construct and operate sewer and water utilities, to form local improvement districts and levy special assessments. These are only a few of the RCWs that would certainly impose additional regulations to the annexed areas if implemented. We suggest the port has plenty to do for the foreseeable future to build a new sea wall, expand D dock to accommodate larger tour boats and a new seaplane dock, boat ramp refurbishment, breakwater replacement and the possible purchase of the old city hall for development, just to name a few. Please go online to www.portofpoulsbo.com/ plan to inform yourself on the scope of the port’s plans and the additional level of regulations that would apply to the annexed areas beyond the county, DNR and shoreline management rules. Once annexed, there is no opportunity to be “unannexed.” We all have a huge vested interest in a healthy Liberty Bay and surrounding community. We all must be good stewards of our environment and can do so without another layer of regulations via annexation. Please vote no. Tom and Patty Henderson Scandia n

I am voting no on the Port of Poulsbo’s proposal to greatly increase the size of the port district through annexation. The commissioners, in the public forum sponsored by the Herald, stated that the annexation would increase its annual tax revenues by $200,000, giving it greater resources to accomplish its mission of encouraging economic development. I ask “Why”? And “How”? According to financial statements included in the current comprehensive plan, the district has on
NorthKitsapHerald.com
hand $2.2 million in unrestricted cash and current assets and only $60,000 in liabilities. Why do they need more? The commissioners stated they need the funds to expand the docks and repair the seawall. I note these objectives were included in past comprehensive plans, yet, instead they have chosen to spend $1 million on an unused parking lot. And now they are considering buying the old city hall property. Neither purchase serves to expand the docks nor bolster the seawall. But it does further their speculation in real estate development. Is this how we want the district to spend our tax dollars? I personally think not. Until such time as the port can satisfactorily answer why it needs more money and how specifically that money will be spent, I will continue to oppose its annexation plans. Ed Habecker Virginia Point n

I would urge all voters to vote no on the Port of Poulsbo’s proposed annexation. The port clearly wants to obligate an enormous number of yet-unaffected taxpayers to still another new tax. There seems to be no real reason to bring in these additional taxpayers except to give the port even more money. There is no history of responsibility for spending the money that they have already garnered. They have a seldom used parking lot that was costly but generates practically no income. Now they are talking about buying the old city hall property, tearing it down and building a hotel. The city already tried to entice developers and promoters to do the same project and was not successful, with no interest shown by people who know about such undertakings. Voters should know that the port has the authority to make decisions about their water and sewer rights and sources. That alone should cause one to vote no. Barb Mitchusson Lemolo n
n
n
Do those whose ballots questioned whether the Poulsbo Port District should annex additional areas understand the issues? Even if their property is far from Liberty Bay, a “yes” vote means they want to be included. Imagine you signed a
blank sheet of paper, and then later discovered you lost your assets in a prenuptial agreement. Similarly, the vast, unread Port District powers appear in RCW 53.08. Only a few of those powers pertaining to property are: A port district may construct, condemn, purchase, acquire, add to, maintain, conduct, and operate sea walls, piers, docks, boat landings, and administration buildings. Further, a port district may acquire, construct, install, improve and operate sewer and water utilities to serve its own property and other property owners under terms, conditions, and rates fixed by the Port Commission. Those with wells might have to tap into water mains with meters. You might lose your existing water rights to irrigate. There can be local improvement districts within the Port District to be taxed by all property owners within the Port District, whether it ever benefits them or not. This is because the proposed annexed areas were not separated for taxation. RCW 53.08, the prenuptial agreement, marries the property owner, not just to the port commissioners, but to all port property owners’ decisions. Divorce isn’t an option. One must remain aware of upcoming finances and decisions to protect one’s property. Since port decisions wed the property to the port, it will impact future sales or inheritance terms. Please read the immense powers of port districts prior to voting. It isn’t just the amount of taxes they cite now; this presents a big land grab and loss of property rights. Port district powers retain the ability to levy other taxes, even condemn property. Some port plans create pollution, whereas homeowners protect the environment. Dora “Cris” Shardelman Poulsbo n

I attended a very disappointing Port of Poulsbo forum Friday evening sponsored by the Herald at City Hall, with a standing-room only-audience in attendance. The three commissioners were completely unprepared to answer valid questions about their proposal and seemed genuinely surprised that people in the proposed annexation area do not want to be annexed.

Commissioners, you should have mailed notices of the public hearing to us in October instead of the expensive, multi-colored flier you double-mailed to homes this month. Then you’d have been aware of the massive opposition to this incredible tax grab proposal.

Supports renewal of NKSD levy On Feb. 11, the North Kitsap School District will put forth a renewal levy vote to maintain the support we receive from the community. These funds are crucial to our schools in that they make up 25 percent of our total budget. Our schools have suffered tremendous losses in recent years due to the financial crisis. Here is how it has affected our children: Tattered textbooks, disgracefully outmoded technology, larger class size, and atrophied programs. Somehow, our schools have been successful even in the face of economic adversity. Have you seen the state and national awards we’ve been racking up? This trend cannot hold, however, in the face of more cuts. In my job, I see students who are working to gain academic skill and personal fortitude that will help them be successful when they leave our schools. I spend much of my work day with seniors who are on
this brink. Our students are applying to colleges, deciding to serve in the military, and choosing career paths. When I think how the decisions made at this stage in life make the difference in how a young person is poised to face their future, I feel the vital importance of providing an educational structure that prepares them. I want universities, the military, trade schools, and employers to know they can count on a North Kitsap graduate to be thoughtful and innovative. In order to accomplish this, we must be a place that offers innovation and fosters thoughtfulness through our teachers, technology and texts. Thank you for supporting our students by voting yes on the levy. Danielle Boss English teacher Kingston High School n

As I look out at the faces of my students, I am struck by the impact that teachers make. I have been teaching for 23 years, and every year I am inspired by the joy of learning and the enthusiasm with which my middleschool students approach their education. Many students have passed through the door of my classroom, and I feel responsible for providing the best education I can for each of them. I know that I am blessed to be a teacher. This February voters will be asked to support the levy for North Kitsap School District. This is a replacement levy, supplying monies that represent nearly 25 percent of our operating costs. Without this support, I can’t imagine how we would be able
to continue to offer the kind of quality instruction that North Kitsap is recognized for providing. It is important to remember that when we invest in our children, we are also investing in the success of our community. The students of North Kitsap School District represent our future. A yes vote is a way to pay it forward, giving the gift of a solid foundation to students who are deserving of it. It is only a small investment that has the potential for unmeasurable rewards. For more information about the levy and the manner in which it supports our students, visit www.kitsapgov.com/aud/ elections.htm. Heather E. Nelson English teacher, grade 7 Poulsbo Middle School n

I am writing in support of the upcoming school levy. I am a small-business owner and parent of a firstgrader. I understand both the fear of raising taxes and the budget shortfalls facing our school system. Voting “yes” does not raise taxes. It is simply to maintain the funding already in place.

The history of building boats on Liberty Bay A
t the risk of mixing my metaphors, my head has been swimming with boat building for the last few weeks. “Boat Builders on the Bay” is the subject of this year’s major exhibit at the Poulsbo Historical Museum, and what a lesson it has been for me. One of the side benefits of planning and installing exhibits is the education I receive while doing the research for them. I never thought I would be interested in boats or building them, but after delving into Poulsbo’s extensive history with the occupation, I have become fascinated with the process of building a boat. I’m not about to take that up as a second hobby, mind you, but I certainly have gained an understanding of the craftsmanship involved in building a boat from scratch. Add to that the fact that our earliest boat builders on Dogfish Bay were not using power tools or modern materials, and it is easy to be in awe of what
Now & then By JUDY DRISCOLL they accomplished. The tradition of boat building began as soon as the first settlers got their land legs back after steaming into the bay. Boat building was already going strong on Bainbridge Island by the time our bay was settled, and our production did not come close to matching the giant operation at Port Blakely, but our men found abundant opportunity to build and repair boats. The earliest builders we found were Einar Nilsen and Martin Bjermeland, who are two of the featured builders in the exhibit. Both were building here before 1890. Einar’s boat shed was at the head of the bay, where he also had a shingle mill. Most notably, he built the mosquito fleet steamer Advance that was the only known steamer to be completely built in Poulsbo and to be made out of local lumber. He was also
the builder of the schooner Anna Olga, whose story of becoming ice-bound in northern Alaska is recounted in the “Spirit of Poulsbo.” Einar’s handiwork is still seen in Poulsbo in the form of his house commonly called the Sonju House. He built it at the same time as he built the Grandview Hotel that sat on the bluff across the street, at the site of today’s Sons of Norway. Einar’s contemporary, Martin Bjermeland, was perhaps the best known of the carpenters in Poulsbo. As builder of First Lutheran Church (both its first and present buildings) and a great number of homes and businesses on Front Street, he established his name early as a master carpenter. Martin spent eight years of his life building boats in Ballard while maintaining his home in Poulsbo, the large blue house north of today’s Poulsbo City Hall. Returning to full-time residence in Poulsbo in 1905 didn’t slow down his boat work one bit. One of his largest projects was the

as “2 Chainz” (aka Tauheed Epps). His recent hit, promoted by the progressive left (part of the mindset of the North Kitsap Herald in adhering to the national media standards), is entitled “Where You Been.” I checked out some of the lyrics he raps and was surprised at the inglorious content that appears to be promoted by the above mentioned popular American companies. Does the CEO of Pepsi know that 2Chainz’s words refer to how he keeps his “hoes in check”? Or how about his continued use of the “N-word” at least five times over in this performance? Or how about his discussion of a Tec-9 (assault pistol) in the song? Or maybe his use of the “F-word” repeatedly? He, along with other Hollywood progressive notables, will garner acclaim and accolades for their continued use of racist, misogynistic, homicidal lyrics to wow the watching unwashed masses, as these children swill Pepsi soda and consume whatother-products hawked in commercials. Lucky he isn’t the principal of Poulsbo Elementary School, because he would be out of a job and facing
some Marxist-Progressive cultural awareness training. That’s how Principal Claudia Alves gained notoriety in Kitsap County, with the help of North Kitsap Herald writer Kipp Robertson and editor Richard Walker. I’m sure they’ll wave off any direct criticism and observe that they were only reporting the news. I find it interesting what your story implies: That somehow, there has been a real bad racist lurking in Poulsbo Elementary School for a long time. Luckily, through a Freudian slip, the true character of Ms. Alves was discovered. And even though she has worked as a teacher for 19 years, then as a principal for 12 more (as printed on the school welcome page in September 2013), all of her life experiences and education add up to absolutely zero, nothing, nada, zip because of one word, undoubtedly taken out of context. And even though she was quoted in several news outlets as stating “the N-word was never the right thing to say, no matter the period of time,” she is now the Pariah of Poulsbo. It should be a respite to Richard Walker that thanks to him and his

building of the schooner Phyllis S. for the Pacific Coast Codfish Company in 1927. By then, sons George and Helmer were working with him and Martin and George are credited with the Phyllis S. Unfortunately, Phyllis S. ran aground near Kodiak, Alaska in 1934 and another Poulsbo boat builder, Chris Haugen, was sent north to do the repairs. Martin Bjermeland spent much of his boat-building time doing repair and refitting work, so his list of boats isn’t quite as long as either Nilsen’s or Haugen’s, but

Alves is courteous, compassionate Huckleberry Finn in Mark Twain’s novel about the inhumane treatment of African slaves was just about the same age as Poulsbo Elementary fifthgraders. Some years back, a movement arose to ban that book because it used the N-word. Never mind that it was a powerful statement against racism. Saner minds prevailed and I thought that kind of rigid thinking had passed. However, following the logic of your editorial of Jan. 24, Editor Walker, perhaps that book does need to be removed from our school libraries. I can’t imagine even col-
he had a well-established reputation on the Sound for being an expert carpenter and proficient boat repairman. In our exhibit four major builders are featured: Einar Nilsen, Martin Bjermeland family, Ronald Young (of Poulsbo Boat fame) and Chris Haugen, who has an exhausting list of boats built and repaired. We also have compiled information on a long list of other busy builders, including the likes of Jergen Almos, Axel Enquist, Halvor Veggen, Peter Elvebak and, in more recent years, Henry Stewart. I was just putting the finishing touches on the exhibit when I received the news of Henry Stewart’s death. The historical society had hoped to interview him last year but his failing health thwarted our efforts. We are in the process of working with his family to find out more about his building career in Poulsbo. It’s always interesting to me that when planning an exhibit, it is often hard to
find people who can fill in the gaps in the research, but as soon as an exhibit opens, information starts pouring in. Such is the case with the boat builders. We are suddenly finding boats and builders that we had never known. Maybe the museum should take a new tack: Instead of putting up exhibits, we should post “Wanted” posters to prime the pump and get Poulsbo’s history flowing. The “Builders on the Bay” exhibit will remain throughout 2014. In addition, by the time you read this, we will also have opened our new “You Oughta Be In Pictures” exhibit of portraits and photography equipment. That smaller exhibit will remain until late fall 2014. Make us a regular stop on your outings in Poulsbo. There’s always something new happening at the museum. — Judy Driscoll is a volunteer at the Poulsbo Historical Museum and the author of three books on Poulsbo history.

A friend said she doubted that her nine-year-old granddaughter even knew what the “N-word” was — maybe “nuts?” Very confusing for children if we are not even allowed to explain! What concerns me even more than the confusion, however, is that this unspeakable word is given way more power than it deserves. After some 20 years of working in education under six to seven very capable principals, I experienced Mrs. Alves’ leadership clearly as the most professional. She was also the most caring, compassionate, competent, courteous, and committed — all those good C-words. Mary Ekstrand Lemolo

The award recognized my 35 years of volunteer service to the group organizing Viking Fest each May — the last six of which I served as president. I also appreciate the contributions to the Poulsbo community by the chamber over the years. The members’ sponsorships and donations of goods and services have enabled Viking Fest to expand its offerings, year upon year, for 45 years. Their continuing support allowed us to grant $6,500 in scholarships to area students in 2013. While I thank the Greater Poulsbo Chamber of Commerce for this singular honor, it is really a testament to all the men and women who have worked with me over the years in supporting the festivals.

Founder More bleachers for Buc Field of rowing clubs dies By KIPP ROBERTSON
krobertson@northkitsapherald. com
William B. Richards INDIANOLA — An Indianola resident who helped form Kitsap’s two rowing clubs died Jan. 9. William B. Richards died of a heart attack while working out on a rowing machine. Richards co-founded the Bainbridge Island Rowing Club in 2001. In 2011, he founded the Kitsap Rowing Association. Richards’ work with rowing in Kitsap followed a career in jour nalism, which included reporting for The Bill Richards Washington Post during the Watergate era, National Geographic, Wall Street Journal, and Seattle Post-Intelligencer. Richards, his wife Rebecca Slattery and business partner Louisa Brown managed Persephone Farm. The farm is 13 acres, and grows and sells vegetables and flowers. A celebration of Richards’ life will be held Feb. 1 at 5 p.m. in the Indianola Clubhouse. The celebration is open to the public. The family prefers donations in Richards’ memory to Kitsap Rowing Association (www.kitsaprowing.org) or Bainbridge Island Farmers Market Association, P.O. Box 10225, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110.
KINGSTON — There won’t be as many people forced to stand or find their own seating at Buc Field in the near future. The North Kitsap School Board unanimously approved Jan. 23 a project to expand bleacher seating on the west side of the field. The seating will be expanded by 10 rows. It will add approximately 275 seats. The project is expected to cost an estimated $63,881. The district will hire SiteLines Park Equipment. The money for the project is being paid for by the district and the Kingston Athletic Booster Club. The district will pay $18,881. The Athletic Booster Club and Associated Student Body will pay $45,000.
The North Kitsap School District, the Athletic Booster Club and Associated Student Body will spend an estimated $63,881 on more seating at Buc Field. Kipp Robertson / Herald The expanded seating is the result of months of discussion around building a press box at Buc Field. Because of the cost, the board eventually voted against the press box project. Because the seating falls within the school board’s verbal promise to the Boosters to add to Buc Field, it was OK’d.
Though not always the case, attendance at Buc Field gets pretty high. The 2013 Homecoming football game generated 605 ticket sales. The most-sold tickets in one night in 2012 was 517. In 2011, the most-sold tickets in one night was about 700.

Bucs on a roll KINGSTON — The Kingston Buccaneers girls varsity team, now on a four-game win streak, leaped ahead of the Olympic Trojans and Sequim Wolves in the standings after a 61-50 win over the Trojans, Jan. 28. The Bucs (10-3) now stand alone in second place in the Olympic League, two games behind the Port Angeles Roughriders (12-1). With three games left in the regular season for the Bucs, it’s unlikely they will catch the Riders, who are in position for the league title. The Bucs would need to win three more, and for the Riders to lose three, in order to take the title. On paper, the most difficult opponent left for the Riders are the Wolves (8-4). Though they may not have the title this season, the Bucs are in good position to take the No. 2 seed in the district playoffs. If they are able to hold onto second, the Bucs will earn a first-round bye and play Feb. 19 in the second round.

With the league sending four teams to the district playoffs, the Vikes need some late-season victories. The Vikes host Port Townsend Jan. 31, then play the Wolves, Bucs, and Trojans. If the Vikes can earn a few wins and knock the Trojans or Wolves down to fifth, they will be guaranteed a playoff berth. The last time the Vikes played the Wolves, Jan. 7, they lost 34-31. The Vikes lost to the Bucs 63-61 on Jan. 10. And they lost 53-43 to the Trojans, Jan. 13. However, the Vikes were on a win streak Jan. 15-24, defeating Bremerton, Klahowya and North Mason, which have three of the four worst records this season. — Kipp Robertson

Continued from page A1 nities should be included in the port district. “The city has grown,” DeSalvo said. “Now less than half of the city is part of the port district, including Walmart and Home Depot. They are not participating in this, and they benefit from it.” “(Liberty Bay) is governed under the state or the county; there is no one voice for the bay other than going through the state or the county. We want to keep it local; we want to bring it back on down so there is local control. That’s what the port does,” he added. “Right now, just a small, little minority in Poulsbo controls everything to do with the port.” Rutledge followed. “If you care about the community and think that the waterfront is an important part of it, I would say that you should care,” he said. “Economically, I would bet that the health of Liberty Bay is important to you and your property values, to your jobs, to the economic success of the
Poulsbo Port Commission Chairman Jim Rutledge answers a question during a forum on the port’s annexation proposal on the Feb. 11 ballot. “I would bet that the health of Liberty Bay is important to you and your property values, to your jobs, to the economic success of the area,” Rutledge said. Richard D. Oxley/ Herald area.” Rutledge said the bay is silting in, and the downtown Poulsbo seawall is failing. The port aims to fix the seawall and dredge a part of the bay to help boats, even small cruise ships, to come in. “The visitors that come into the area through the port spend millions of dollars in this area every year. This reduces your tax burden and makes the area more economically healthy.” Rutledge also said the port’s main objectives to are be an environmental
steward, foster economic development and represent port members. He noted that the port helps protect property owners’ rights, and helped waterfront property owners negotiate during the last round of controversial shoreline master program updates. Some residents were not swayed by commissioners’ arguments for annexation, and said they could not see the benefit of joining the port. “I’m not unsympathetic to you,” said Carl Shipley of Scandia. “But I’m not in favor of this. If you had

actually presented something that talked about how I would be drawn more into a community of Liberty Bay, I would have been much more sympathetic. The idea has attraction. There is a sort of natural configuration for a community here. But I just didn’t hear it tonight.” Others felt that their tax dollars would only help Poulsbo, not their independent communities. “Most of your plans seem to be extraordinarily Poulsbo-centric,” said Karen Timmerman, who grew up in the Liberty Bay area. “The word ‘community’ is thrown around an awful lot but honestly everything is about Poulsbo.” “You’re trying to make it sound like ‘Well, all these surrounding people should pay increased property taxes to help out Poulsbo.’ If you don’t shop in Poulsbo and many people don’t, they go to Silverdale, what does it matter if they help Poulsbo?” She added, “They’re accepting all the risk and Poulsbo is reaping all of the rewards.” DeSalvo countered by saying that the areas up for annexation are not in the
port district yet, and therefore the port doesn’t have any plans for them. “You are right,” DeSalvo said to Timmerman. “Look at our constituency, we don’t represent you right now, so our plan has nothing to do with you right now.” Moderator and Herald editor Richard Walker worked to keep the forum on track, fielding questions from the crowd and facilitating commissioners’ answers. But the meeting, at times, broke into stretches of residents putting commissioners on the defensive. “You’re a bureaucrat!” a women from the crowd exclaimed to a commissioner. Others spoke up, claiming that annexation would be the first step toward the city enveloping their communities. Others criticized the very procedure of the forum, debating whether or not it should follow the question and answer format. And some accused Walker of speaking more as a “fourth commissioner” instead of a moderator. The expansion, if approved, would take port borders to the remaining shorelines of Liberty Bay, except Keyport, and the
VOTERS: WHO AND WHERE On Feb. 11, 2,483 voters will vote on whether to annex into the Poulsbo Port District. n In precincts 401, 403, 404 and 406, within the Poulsbo city limits: 1,116 voters. n In precinct 445, Pearson: 559 voters. n In precinct 455, Scandia: 137 voters. n In precinct 435, Lemolo: 671 voters. upland regions associated with them. The port would then gain tax revenue from the newly annexed properties. Only the residents that would be annexed will vote on the measure in February. If approved, the levy would be 30 cents for every $1,000 of assessed property value. The levy will not change for existing port district residents. The Port of Poulsbo is operated by three commissioners, five full-time employees and three parttime employees.

911
Ash Daignault reviews his call list showing how many times he unsuccessfully called 911 on his cell phone. Looking on is Ally Mae, his infant daughter.
Continued from page A1 Here’s what happened. At about 8:24 p.m. on Jan. 16, Angie Daignault was driving and about three blocks from her house on Candy Circle when her daughter, Ally Mae, appeared to be having a seizure. She called 911 on her Virgin Mobile cell phone and got what sounded like a busy signal; the tone sounded three times, then hung up. Angie drove home and alerted her husband, Ash. He called 911 on his Virgin Mobile phone 11 times between 8:27 and 8:29 p.m. Each time, the same thing: A busy signal tone sounded three times, then hung up. They finally went to a neighbor and called using the neighbor’s phone. “I’ve had my phone for six years and I’ve never had a problem,” Ash said, adding that he used it to call 911 last year. This time, “I called 911 when I needed it and it didn’t work.” The next day, Ash called Virgin Mobile to find out why he couldn’t call 911. He said a supervisor told him he’s not able to call 911 using his phone, an older model. “You must call customer care and have them call for the right emergency personnel,” he said he was told. That comment couldn’t be verified, but Ash’s assertion that he was told that — and the fact he and his wife couldn’t call 911 — got wheels turning from Poulsbo to Olympia. Officials want to make sure that there isn’t a hiccup in the system that would keep someone, anyone, from connecting to 911 using a cell phone. The Federal Communications Commission estimates that about 70 percent of 911 calls are placed from wireless phones, and that per-
Richard Walker / Herald
centage is growing. “For many Americans, the ability to call 911 for help in an emergency is one of the main reasons they own a wireless phone,” according to the FCC’s website. “Other wireless 911 calls come from ‘Good Samaritans’ reporting traffic accidents, crimes or other emergencies. The prompt delivery of wireless 911 calls to public safety organizations benefits the public by promoting safety of life and property.” Kitsap County CenCom director Richard Kirton said wireless signals can sometimes be tricky. 911 calls made near county lines have been known to stray to a neighboring county, which reroutes the call to the correct local
emergency service provider. Point is, a 911 call can be made. “If he’s got signal, he should be able to call 911,” Kirton said. Ziggy Dahl, E911 Unit manager for the state of Washington, said, “We know of no technical reason that that call should not go through if he had a signal. We have been in contact with the network provider and we’re trying to figure it out.” (All officials were able to breathe easier when they learned that 10-month-old Ally Mae — born on St. Patrick’s Day 2013 with a shamrock-shaped birthmark — is OK; she had had a fever but was recovering, her dad reported.)

sor had Ash take the battery out of his phone to reset the handset and try again. He was then able to connect to 911. “That
doesn’t add up,” Kirton said. “We’ve pushed Virgin Mobile to investigate.” Lorena Pino of Virgin Mobile corporate communications said Jan. 17, “All Virgin Mobile devices are able to use 911 with no limitations. The 911 feature works even if the device is not active.” On Jan. 28, Jayne Wallace, director of Virgin Mobile corporate communications, reported: “Upon investigation, it appears that a recent software update caused intermittent call blocking during a limited time period. Our network operations center had been analyzing the issue and considered rolling back the software update, but were able to
correct it before that was necessary. Following that action, network statistics indicate it has been operating normally.” Meanwhile, the Daignaults have gotten new phones from a different provider. He doesn’t want this experience to happen to anyone else, and cites some of the emergencies that could happen in which a cell phone call to 911 could mean a life saved. “For example, [you] get into a car accident and can’t call 911,” he said. “Someone breaks into your house with a gun, you can’t call 911. You’re driving and have a heart attack and can’t call 911. Who in their right mind would sign up for that?”

Are antioxidants important? To understand the power of antioxidants, you must first understand the negative effects of free radicals. Much like their name implies free radicals like ultraviolet radiation from the sun and pollution steal electrons from healthy molecules or cells. Once free radicals strip away an electron to become balanced, cellular damage has occurred and an imbalance has been created. Antioxidants are beneficial as they give up electrons to balance free radicals without causing damage. Topical antioxidants like Vitamins C and E can repair and prevent damage caused by free radicals. Knowing what antioxidants are best for your personal cellular damage is essential. Consulting with a licensed aesthetician will start you on the path of controlling the ill effects of free radicals on your skin. – Kerry Slone Beautifully Polished at Longworth Studio

Taprock Grill becomes Elmer’s Restaurant Feb. 1 By RICHARD D. OXLEY
Taprock Grill opens Feb. 1 as Elmer’s Restaurant. The emphasis is on family dining, and you can get breakfast all day long.
roxley@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — Poulsbo’s Taprock Northwest Grill closed its doors last week, only to reopen them as an Elmer’s Restaurant. The restaurant location off of Highway 305 in Poulsbo Village is owned by Elmer’s Restaurants, Inc. The company has decided to convert the restaurant over to its namesake. “We believe the Elmer’s breakfast, lunch and dinner concept is better for the Poulsbo community,” said Elmer’s CEO Jerry Scott. “Taprock was a polished, casual dining restaurant. Elmer’s is family dining, three meals a day. We serve breakfast all day long.” Elmer’s Restaurant Inc. formerly owned the Taprock brand, until it was recently sold. The Poulsbo location was one of two. The other Taprock, in Grants Pass, Ore. is now the only location for its brand. “(Taprock) performed well for us,” Scott said. “It was difficult to make (the) economic model work for expansion. We couldn’t quite figure out how to grow and expand it, but we know how to grow Elmer’s.” Scott said that along with the name and menu change, the new Elmer’s will employ more people than Taprock did. “We anticipate it being a more high-volume restaurant,” he said. Beginning on Jan. 26, the building went under a slight remodel to give it the Elmer’s feel, and will open under the new name on Feb. 1. “It means a signage change from ‘Taprock’ to ‘Elmer’s,’ ” said Jill Ramos,
Richard D. Oxley / Herald
director of restaurant support for Elmer’s. “Inside, there is minor construction taking place.” Much of the work involves installing a host stand, and updating kitchen equipment to accommodate the Elmer’s menu. Most of the interior, however, won’t undergo too many changes, Ramos said. “The thing about both brands is that they both have a Northwest, local feel to them,” Ramos said. “So there isn’t really a need to change the Northwest decor that is in there already. The biggest change is the servers’ uniforms.” Taprock fare was served with jeans and T-shirt attire. Servers will trade that in for black slacks and shirts. The menu will convert along with the brand. Taprock and Elmer’s fare is comparable, with breakfast, lunch and dinner features. The new lineup is heavier on breakfast and diner ambiance, though. “If I am there at break-

fast, I’m either going to get a Looking-for-Sun omelet or a German pancake,” Scott said. “At dinner, I’ll get the prime rib.”
Elmer’s is rooted in the pancake house tradition, though it has evolved over its nearly 50 years in business. While steak and burg-
ers share the menu, breakfast is served all day. “We love that people come in at dinner time and order pancakes,” Ramos said. “Who doesn’t like breakfast for dinner?” She added, “Elmer’s is more of a breakfast restaurant and we think the community needs that. It’s a restaurant for everybody. When you’re at an Elmer’s you’ll see children, families, business people and retirees.” Restaurant crew spent Jan. 31 serving an inviteonly crowd, learning the new ropes and preparing for the official opening. Elmer’s home office is in Portland, Ore. The bulk of its chain is in Oregon. The Poulsbo addition will be the fourth Elmer’s in Washington; there are two
in Vancouver and one in Tacoma. Originally opened in the ’60s as a pancake and steak house, the company has grown into a chain of diners across the Northwest and one in California, boasting a family-friendly atmosphere and priding itself on serving local, Northwest ingredients. The National Restaurants Association gave it the 2012 Neighbor Award, the same year a leading consumer publication rated it among the top 10 family restaurants in the nation. The Poulsbo location was originally a Mitzel’s American Kitchen, but a fire in 2006 damaged the building. It was resurrected under the Taprock title in 2007.

affordable and accessible to all, with treatments provided in a comfortable group setting. “We will be providing local [food], free miniature treatments to give folks a feel of what our medicine is like, as well as a raffle for free treatments in the community clinic,” said acupun-
turist Jillian Rifkind, L.Ac. Rifkind said most acupuncture treatments in the U.S. take place on tables in separate rooms. However, in Asia, acupuncture usually occurs in a community setting, in one large open room with lots of tables and chairs available for treatments.
That’s the model for the Community Acupuncture Clinic. “The treatments are individualized and catered towards the person’s own needs,” Rifkind said. “We utilize other aspects of treatment, including Chinese herbs, nutritional counseling and herbal analgesics.”

Columbia Winery finds new leader, stability C
olumbia Winery has had a trying dozen years. The longtime Washington winery has changed hands three times since 2001 and now looks like it will enjoy some much-needed stability. In mid-2012, E&J Gallo of Modesto, Calif., purchased Columbia Winery from Ascentia, a wine company that’s no longer in business. Ascentia had purchased it from Constellation Brands of New York in 2008, which bought it from Corus Brands (now Precept Wine) in Seattle in 2001. Columbia was launched in 1962 by several University of Washington professors and was known as Associated Vintners until the 1980s. It was the first winery in the state to focus exclusively on European wine grapes. In the late 1970s, founder Lloyd Woodburne hired David Lake, a British winemaker who had earned a master of wine degree. Lake went on to introduce the state to Syrah and had a lasting effect on how wine is made here. Lake retired
NW Wines By ANDY PERDUE and eric degerman
in 2006 and died in 2009 after battling cancer and heart disease. Under Gallo, Columbia looks like a much different winery. It still resides in its beautiful tasting room in Woodinville, across the street from Chateau Ste. Michelle. But it has narrowed its focus to four wines that have been released in the Pacific Northwest and will go into national distribution this summer. These wines total 80,000 cases in production; by comparison, Columbia made more than that in Riesling alone just a few years ago. With the new wines, Columbia also has unveiled a new label. Winemaker Sean Hails came from California in 2012 to take over Columbia’s production. The Ontario, Canada, native worked in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley before going to Gallo and heading up the company’s Livingstone Cellars operation in the
Sean Hails has taken the reins of the Columbia Winery after years of management changeover. Columbia Winery Central Valley. There, he processed 500,000 tons of grapes a year — more than double what the entire state of Washington produces annually. Last fall, he crushed 4,300 tons
for Columbia. In addition to the four wines reviewed here, Hails also is crafting 14 wines that will be available to wine club members and in the tasting room.
These four wines were tasted in the past few weeks. All are broadly distributed in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska. n Columbia Winery 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $14: Here’s a luscious and classic Cabernet Sauvignon that opens with aromas of black cherry, black currant, black walnut and dark chocolate, followed by rich flavors of cocoa powder, pomegranate and black pepper. It’s all backed with moderate tannins, making this a great wine to pair with grilled meats or midweek pizza. n Columbia Winery NV Composition, Columbia Valley, $14: This nonvintage blend includes wine from 2010 and 2011. It leads with Cabernet Sauvignon (41 percent), followed by Syrah, Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot. It’s rich and bold, with aromas of roasted coffee, boysenberry, dark chocolate and ripe plum, followed by deep, bold flavors of huckleberry, oak and rich spice. It has terrific length
and should pair nicely with mushroom risotto, lasagna or spaghetti and meatballs. n Columbia Winery 2012 Chardonnay, Columbia Valley, $14: If you enjoy Californiastyle Chardonnays, this is your wine. It’s a big, rich, buttery white with aromas of saffron, baked potato skins and cream, followed by bold flavors of ripe pineapple, pear, buttered toast and white pepper. Enjoy this as a cocktail wine or with eggs Benedict or butternut squash ravioli. n Columbia Winery 2012 Merlot, Columbia Valley, $14: It didn’t take Hails long to figure out Washington Merlot. His first vintage in the state reveals a dandy of a wine. It is smooth and easy going, with aromas of cherry, blueberry and vanilla cream candy, followed by fresh, bright flavors of high-toned red fruit, including cranberry, pomegranate and cherry. The sumptuous midpalate leads to a bright and luscious finish. — www.greatnorthwestwine.com.

Friday, January 31, 2014 website. “I sent some music in to the contest and a month later I got a phone call saying I had advanced,” he said. “I get to compete.” Ko$mo will go head-tohead with other artists on Feb. 15 at the EMP. The battle consists of three nights — Feb. 8, 15, and 22 — with four artists performing during each concert. The performances will be judged by a panel of local music industry elite.
The winners of each show will advance to the finals on March 1 in the EMP’s Sky Church. “You are judged on the performance,” Ko$mo said. “Then you go to the finals between four bands.” Ko$mo, a sophomore at Kingston High School, produces and records at his home in Kingston, along with a few friends. “We get some beats, they make some beats,” he said. “(Then) me and my

friend record it.” Ko$mo’s sound is reminiscent of Mos Def, A Tribe Called Quest, and perhaps even a little Del the Funky Homosapien. But his modern take is laid over the hip hop heritage, speaking to the life of a Kingston teen. “It’s just hip hop,” he said. Tickets to the Sound Off! shows are available through www.empmuseum.org.

Annual Backyard Bird Count begins Feb. 14 Bird watchers collect data for greater understanding of bird behavior
I
f your family enjoys watching birds at your backyard feeders — or anywhere else, for that matter — the Great Backyard Bird Count is an annual event you’re sure to enjoy. This four-day event engages bird watchers of all ages in counting birds to create a real-time snapshot of where the birds are. The 17th annual bird count (www.birdcount. org) starts Feb. 14 and continues through Feb. 17. Everyone is welcome to participate, from beginning bird watchers to experts. It takes as little as 15 minutes on one day, or you can count for as long as you like each day of the event. It’s free, fun, and easy — and it helps the birds. A joint project of the

Potter said ATMs are nearby if needed. For Potter, a Texas native, the event is an extension of a lifelong passion that was briefly put on hold while he was stationed out of the country while serving in the Navy. “When I was a kid, 7 or 8, we used to grab a big trash bag of comics and throw them in the car and read them on a trip,” he said. Potter also worked jobs in college around the collector scene. “I joined the Navy and immediately went overseas,” he said. “Navy life, being on a ship, there wasn’t much time other than to live your Navy life.” So when he was stationed in Kitsap, with
kitsap birding By GENE BULLOCK
Cornell Lab of Ornithology and National Audubon Society, the four-day count receives sightings from 11 countries. The count went global in 2013, receiving nearly 139,000 reports on more than 4,000 species (about 39 percent of the worldwide total of 10,240 species). In 2013, participants reported a total count of more than 34.5 million birds. Why count birds? Scientists and bird enthusiasts can learn a lot by knowing where the birds are. Bird populations are dynamic; they are constantly in flux. No single scientist or team of scientists could hope to document and understand the complex distribution and movements of so many species in such a short time. Scientists use the Great Backyard Bird Count information — along with observations from other citizen-science projects, such as the National Audubon Christmas Bird
Count, Project FeederWatch, and eBird — to get the “big picture” about what is happening to bird populations. The longer the data is collected, the more meaningful it becomes in helping scientists investigate far-reaching questions, such as migration trends, distribution and changes in habitat. Participating is easy. Simply watch birds for at least 15 minutes at the location of your choice on one or more of the count days. Estimate the number of birds you see for each species you can identify. You’ll select your location on a map, answer a few questions, enter your tallies, and then submit your data to share your sightings with others around the world. National Audubon (www.birds.audubon.org/ birdID) and the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology (www.allaboutbirds. org) both offer online bird guides to help you identify the birds you see and listen to their calls. — Gene Bullock is editor of the Kitsap Audubon Society newsletter, The Kingfisher.

a more stable life, he decided to get back into the collector scene. Potter started Alpha Comics, an online store that sells through eBay and www. comcicollectorlive.com. “(Alpha) comes from my grandmother, her name was Alpha,” Potter said. “When I was a kid I would spend a month or two visiting my grandparents. She would take me to flea markets where I found comics. That always stuck with me, so when I got to name a business, Alpha seemed right.” He also began seeking out events like comic cons. But there wasn’t anything local to Kitsap. Now there is. Fans have three opportunities to gather this year. Potter hopes to continue the event in years to come.
Kathy Swartz caught this sight of an Evening Grosbeak (above) as well as this photo of a Nuthatch and a Downy Woodpecker at a suet feeder (left).
The training of podiatry physicians have the same training as an MD, or Osteopathic Medicine (D.O.).

HIALEAH, FL – An ingredient often used to treat inflammation in racehorse legs is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical strength formula. According to a national drug survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of pharmacy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the product at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted. One of the inventors of the original formula has brought it back under the trade name ARTH ARREST and

KINGSTON — The Hep Replacements are a common feature in the Kingston area, performing blues, funk and R&B classics at venues such as The Point Casino. But their most recent venture takes a local vibe and sends a message across the nation: The 12th Man is coming. “I woke one day and the words ‘the 12th man’s a comin’” kept going through my head,” said Annemarie Olson, lead vocals for Hep Replacements. The
12th Man the Seahawks would not be there,” Olson said. “We stick with our team no matter what.” Now with the Seahawks heading to face the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XLVIII at Metlife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., Olson and countless other fans, are rooting louder than ever. Perhaps some, like Olson, are doing it with a bluesy beat. “I know they will win because the Seahawks are a kind and good team and they deserve to win,” Olson said. “My husband has been a Seahawk fan since the first day of their existence, so he can relate to this song.” “The 12th Man’s a comin’ to New Jersey,” she said. “And we are going to kick booty.”

Seahawks fan quickly went to work. “Then this funky beat came and I thought, ‘Wow, I am going to see if my band, the Hep Replacements, can help me put it together.” Olson wrote the lyrics to the tune, and band mates — as well as others — helped the song emerge, including Justin Gelle, guitar; Luke Morgan, piano; Terry Marsh, drums; Randy Olson, vocals; and Duffy Williams, vocals. Williams also helped out with recording the song, “The 12th Man’s a Comin’,” a bluesy anthem dedicated to the Seahawks and their upcoming Super Bowl game. A video of the song can be viewed on Olson’s YouTube account under “Annemarie Olson.” “I think it is about the Seahawks, but without the

THE ROAD TO THE
SUPERBOWL SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT TO KITSAP WEEK
‘Hopefully it’s the best 60 minutes of my life’ Russell Wilson’s preparations for Sunday’s game began at last year’s Super Bowl BY RICH MYHRE EVERETT HERALD WRITER
A year ago, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was in New Orleans for Super Bowl XLVII. Unfortunately for the Seahawks and their fans, none of Wilson’s teammates joined him. The Super Bowl was played just three weeks after Seattle’s season ended with a disappointing 30-28 playoff loss to the Atlanta Falcons. But Wilson was more than an ordinary spectator at the Feb. 3, 2013, game between the San Francisco 49ers and the Baltimore Ravens. Convinced that the Seahawks were on the verge of reaching the NFL title game, Wilson wanted a firsthand sense of the entire Super Bowl experience. “I watched the whole game, and the pregame and all that, because I really wanted to get a feel for it in case we were there (someday),” Wilson said. “I believed that we would (be) and, sure enough, we are.” Wilson, Seattle’s second-year quarterback, has done everything he can to prepare himself for Super Bowl XLVIII against the Denver Broncos. In recent weeks he has sought the advice of NFL acquaintances with their own Super Bowl experiences, including New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees. Wilson even took the chance to query former Pittsburgh Steelers QB Terry Bradshaw when the latter was on hand for the trophy presentation after the Jan. 19 NFC Championship game at Seattle’s CenturyLink Field. Because the two weeks leading up to the Super Bowl are unlike anything else in the NFL, as is the extraordinary fanfare on game day, Wilson thought it important to

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who is known for his cool demeanor, hopes to lead the team to a win. learn as much as he could. “You have to understand about not getting warmed up too early and not getting too fired up,” he explained. “(It’s about) just being in the moment and relaxing as much as possible, and then going out there and playing a great game.” By the numbers, the Broncos seem to have a decided quarterback advantage in Sunday’s game. Denver QB Peyton Manning has the edge in NFL experience with 16 years compared to Wilson’s two, Super Bowl appearances with two compared to Wilson’s zero, and NFL Most Valuable Player awards with five, again compared to Wilson’s zero. Even Seahawks center Max Unger concedes, “Peyton has been the (quarterback) standard in the
NFL for years and years.” Regardless, the players in Seattle’s locker room are standing behind their teammate. “Peyton’s a great player and he’s one of the best to ever play the game, no doubt about it,” Seahawks wide receiver Golden Tate said. “But No. 3 (Wilson) is a special player himself. And he’s young, so he’s going to get better every day, every game, every year. ... We’re definitely comfortable with No. 3.” “We don’t ask him to run the same offense Peyton does,” pointed out Seattle tight end Luke Willson. “We’ve got Marshawn (Lynch), so we like to run the ball. But Russ still does everything we ask him to do and more. He just makes a ton of plays.”
The question, of course, is whether the 25-year-old Wilson is ready for pro football’s biggest stage. Even Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell acknowledges that “we’re working with a second-year player. A second-year quarterback, and you have to keep that in mind.” According to Bevell, the Seahawks had some late offensive miscues in the NFC Championship game against San Francisco, and those errors were due in part to Wilson being less than flawless. “There was definitely something,” Bevell said. “I don’t know if it was (Wilson’s) nerves, but obviously we didn’t function well in those situations. We fumbled on fourth-and-one (at the 49ers’ goal line), and then we fumbled another
snap, then we came out (and ran) the wrong way. “There were a number of things in the last 10-15 plays where we didn’t function as well as we needed to. I’m not putting it all on (Wilson) because there were other things going on, too. But we’re still talking about a second-year player, and that’s the first time that he’s been in that situation. But he never flinched. He came to the sideline, I was able to talk to him ... and he got a handle on the situation. “He’s been fabulous in everything we’ve asked him to do,” Bevell said. “He does a great job of managing all the situations, and he’s come up big in just about every one of them.” And even in the emotionally packed days leading up to the Super Bowl, “I don’t know how anybody could be better prepared to handle it (than Wilson),” Seattle head coach Pete Carroll said. “That’s his preparation that came way before he ever got to us. He’s a tremendous kid, and I think he’ll be at his best, just like he has been in every other opportunity that we’ve faced.” Asked what it would mean to him to win a Super Bowl, Wilson had a ready response. “The thing I’ve thought about more than anything is what it’ll do for this organization,” he said. “We want to win a Super Bowl and be the first ones to win it in our organization, and that’s kind of our mindset. ... Obviously to win a Super Bowl, that’s the thing you want to win most. “It’s the ultimate game,” he added. “It’s the Super Bowl, and you look forward to these moments. You enjoy these moments, too, but you also keep your focus on the main thing and that’s making sure that your mindset is right and ready to go. ... I’m looking forward to that, and I’m not going to shy away from it.” As kickoff nears, “I’m excited about the game,” Wilson said. “I’m excited about the moment and about playing one play at a time, just like always, and hopefully it’s the best 60 minutes of my life.”

Right smack dab on the top of Kurt Larson’s bucket list is “see the Seahawks play in the Super Bowl.” He thought he might be in his 50s before he saw that happen. But this is the year. And Larson’s going to Super Bowl XLVIII. “It’s a life-long fantasy for me,” said Larson, 38, who is director of sales and marketing for Silver City Brewery in Bremerton. “I’m a life-long fan and this is what I’ve been waiting for.” Larson, who grew up in Kitsap County, has been at about half the home games this season, both playoff games, and the Jan. 18th NFC National Championship game. He isn’t a season ticket holder, but splits tickets with someone he knows through his work who is. After the win against the 49ers, Larson and his friend, Willy Berry, from Boise, who attends the games with him, decided to “see if we could get
they learned of two tickets that were for sale for $4,000. “That’s pretty steep,” he said. “But I told my buddy Willy to see if he could get them for $3,500.” They negotiated with the seller and settled on $3,700 for the two tickets. Ticket prices are up to $8,000 a ticket online. In all, the weekend trip to New York is expected to cost each of them about $3,000 a piece, plus another $500 for “beer and souvenirs.” But, Larson said, he doesn’t have anyone to answer to for spending that kind of money. “I’m single — free and clear,” he said. “So I don’t have to explain this to anyone.” Larson will begin his trip on Saturday, Feb. 1, with a flight to San Francisco and then to Newark, New Jersey. He has a two and a half hour layover in San Francisco and has something special planned. “I’m just gonna sit in the airport in my Seahawks gear and smile at everybody,” he said. “If they ask, I’m gonna tell them ‘I’m going to the Super Bowl and
you’re not,’” he added referring to the win over the 49ers. He’ll meet up in New York with Willy, who is flying from Boise, to Seattle and then to New York. “We had to take the best flights available and that meant not flying together,” he said. “Flights were pricey and we aimed at whatever we could get for the cheapest price.” They’ll stay in the Hilton in Times Square and plan to party with other 12th Man Seahawk fans, although they don’t personally know anyone else going to the game. “Seahawks fans are the best,” he said. “You don’t have to know them, to know them.” They have a shuttle “party” bus to the game on Sunday and then back to the hotel where the celebrating will continue. Larson predicts a 31 to 24 win if the weather is cold and clear, and a 24 to 17 win if it’s snowy or wet. “Manning has Super Bowl experience,” Larson said. “But our defense will win out.”

Surfing? “Sometimes the surfs up and then it goes flat,” Rowland said. He has seen both during his tenure with the franchise. Rowland was in the Kingdome for Seattle’s disastrous 1992 season when scored just 140 points, which is the fewest by an NFL team in a 16-game regular season, en route to a franchise-worst 2-14 record. “When you’re 13-3, it’s just absolutely thrilling,” Rowland said. “I think good fans are the ones that paint their faces blue when we’ve won two games.” Thirteen years later, Rowland witnessed then-coach Mike Holmgren choreograph the league’s highestscoring offense as the Seahawks finished 13-3 and advanced to their first Super Bowl. Rowland’s favorite memory of that season was the team’s dominating 34-14 win against Carolina to earn Seattle’s first conference title. Another highpoint for Rowland was witnessing standout cornerback Richard Sherman tip a pass intended for San Francisco wide receiver Michael Crabtree that was intercepted by linebacker Malcolm Smith to

Rowland’s other favorite moment occurred when wide receiver Steve Largent, arguably the best player in franchise history, was inducted into the team’s “Ring of Honor.” Largent, who played with Seattle from 1976-89, was the team’s first Hall of Famer. “They’re just a wonderful, wonderful organization,” Rowland said. “It’s been a great association for a lot of years.” And one he never anticipated. Rowland worked in broadcasting from 1975-88. He was the sports director for KING radio and hosted a Seahawks’ show on one of the many precursors to what is now ROOT Sports. But Rowland decided to leave the media to work in the ministry. He now is the pastor at the Christian Reformed Church in Seattle’s Greenwood neighborhood. That might have been the end of Rowland’s broadcasting career if the

Rowland will watch the Super Bowl and then celebrate his birthday Feb. 7 — he turns 61 years old — before he flies the following day to Panama. Rowland said he was awarded a grant from Lilly Endowment Inc., which is an Indianapolis-based, private philanthropic foundation created in 1937, for a “renewal sabbatical.” “The opportunity to get away and be in a completely different culture,” said Rowland, who hopes to continue to develop his Spanish and pursue other favorite activities, including SCUBA diving, during his four-month stay. “That’s what would make my heart soar. I love the culture and people.” But before he leaves, Rowland hopes Seattle’s sports fortunes can soar through the city’s first championship in a professional men’s sport since the Sonics won the NBA title in 1979. “I think it’s a really exciting time to live in the Puget Sound area,” he said. “I’m fortunate to have a tiny part in this organization. It’s just a game, but it’s a game that has a psychological impact on the city. I hope Seattle benefits deeply from this opportunity.”
defensive starters out with injuries,” Larson said. Larson’s love for the Seahawks goes way back to his childhood, when he attended games with his brothers. “When I was 6-years-old, I met Jim Zorn,” he said. “It was after a game and I was wearing his jersey (number) and he came up to me and said ‘hey.’ My brothers were all excited and I was like, ‘Who’s that?’” But since those days, Larson has studied the team and been a loyal fan. Even through the years when people called them the “Sea Chickens,” he said. And even while he lived in San Diego. “I actually quit my job down there so I could come back here to be at the 2005 playoff games,” he said. And he knows the current players very well. After the NFC National Championship game on Jan. 19, Larson and Berry were leaving the Alibi Room when Larson saw Tarvaris Jackson, Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback, on the street. Larson knew him right off, even though he’s not one of the Seahawks whose face is often in the news. “He was with two other team members and I knew they didn’t really want people coming up to them,” Larson said. “So I just gave him a fist bump and said ‘nice work guys.’” It’s all a big brotherhood, he said, of men and football. “It’s something else,” he said. “I mean, where else would you see grown men crying and hugging each other?”

THE ROAD TO THE SUPERBOWL
Friday, January 31, 2014
No experience needed for a Super Bowl win The Seahawks are the first team since 1990 to reach the Super Bowl without a single player who has been in the big game before. BY JOHN BOYLE EVERETT HERALD WRITER
RENTON — Even for Pete Carroll, a coach with vast experience, not to mention the fame, fortune and clout to get into just about any big event he chooses, this weekend’s Super Bowl will be a first. Sometime back in his first go-around in the NFL, Carroll decided he wouldn’t go to the Super Bowl as a spectator; instead, he would wait until he earned a trip. “Never,” Carroll said when asked if he had attended the NFL’s biggest game. “I really had the thought a long time ago that I’m not going until we’re playing in it. Fortunately, we’re finally going.” Just as it will be for Carroll, Super Bowl XLVIII will be a new experience for Seattle’s players. Barring a surprise last-minute roster move, the Seahawks will become the first team since the 1990 Buffalo Bills to play in the Super Bowl without a single player on its roster who has past experience in the big game. With an average age of 26.4 the Seahawks are the secondyoungest Super Bowl team in history, just a bit older than the 1971 Dolphins, who lost to Dallas. So the obvious question is, does experience matter? Does the fact that Denver quarterback Peyton Manning is playing in his third Super Bowl while Russell Wilson is in his first mean anything? Or does it simply mean Manning is older and was on some good teams in the past? Seahawks players don’t really know for sure, but they’re approaching the week as if nothing is different. “It’s just another football game,” safety Kam Chancellor said. “At the end of the day, it’s football, it’s running and hitting.” Added fellow safety Earl Thomas: “I’m just doing what I’ve been doing all season. I haven’t changed just because we’re in the Super Bowl.” Yet even if the Seahawks plan to treat Sunday’s game like any other, the buildup certainly will be different. From the circus that is Super Bowl media day to spending an entire week in a hotel to being
hit up with ticket requests from relatives they never knew existed, players face challenges that simply don’t come with other games. “I think the more veteran team you have, the little bit easier it is,” said former Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren, who guided Seattle to the 2006 Super Bowl. “The more times you’ve been through it, it’s easier because there are not a lot of surprises ... There is nothing like it, so you have to talk about it. You have to talk to your team about it.” Oh, and that quote above, Holmgren was talking about the NFC Championship game. “It gets worse if you go to the Super Bowl,” he continued. While this year’s Seahawks may lack Super Bowl experience, Holmgren said he thinks they have the mental makeup to overcome any potential disadvantages. “It strikes me when I go over there, they are as loose a group as I’ve been around,” he said. “But, having said that, I think it’s pretty controlled. They understand that. They handle it pretty well.” These inexperienced Seahawks came into Super Bowl week hoping they can put all the distractions aside, yet they’re also aware that there’s no way to know for sure until they live it. “I really don’t know what to expect for real, being that it’s the first time in the Super
Bowl,” Chancellor said. “I know it’s going to be a ton of media and a ton of people out there. My family is going to be out there, but I’m just blessed for this opportunity to make it to the Super Bowl and get a chance to compete against one of the best. I’m just looking forward to it and can’t wait.” And if you don’t think the emotions of a first Super Bowl are different, just ask Holmgren about one of the pictures hanging in his house. In the old black-and-white photo, Holmgren, then the 49ers’ quarterbacks coach, is sitting in a folding chair facing head coach Bill Walsh going over the game plan. To this day, Holmgren has the same reaction to that photo. “Every time I see that picture, my heart starts going thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump,” he said. “I go ‘Wow, I remember that.’ I was nervous. When I was a head coach, I wasn’t so nervous.” So maybe past Super Bowl experience matters a little, though if it does, it’s not exactly like the Broncos have a roster full of it. While Manning won one title with the Colts, no one else on Denver’s roster has a championship, though receiver Wes Welker, tight end Jacob Tamme and cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie have all played in Super Bowls. If the Seahawks have one

thing going for them this week, it will be a bit of familiarity. Having played the New York Giants this year, the Seahawks have already played, and won, at MetLife Stadium. Carroll even made sure to find out what would be the NFC team hotel for the Super Bowl so his Seahawks could stay there for their regularseason trip to New Jersey. “I always like using those illustrations ... where we have been there before and we’ve done that,” he said, noting the possibility of a return trip wasn’t something discussed publicly before Seattle won the NFC Championship game. “We just try to hold back on that at the time thinking it was too presumptuous, but we’re fortunate now. We’ll be in the same hotel, we’ve been in that locker room, we’ve played well at that stadium, so hopefully we’ll utilize that some. It’s just about being comfortable.” Everett Herald photo

BLUE FRIDAY
Special Seahawk Content Ever y Friday in Januar y
The best of both worlds Super Bowl XLVIII features the NFL’s No. 1 offense against its No. 1 defense
Story by John Boyle, Everett Herald Writer RENTON — While most of America spent the day after the NFC Championship game reacting to Richard Sherman’s postgame antics, the Seahawks cornerback was already immersed in film study. “With Peyton,” Sherman said. “you have to be on it quick, because I know he was on it quick.” When it comes to preparing for quarterback Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos’ offense, an extra week between games is probably one or two weeks too few, which is why Sherman and the Seahawks defense, despite being the best in the NFL, know they have their hands full this weekend. All season this Super Bowl matchup seemed like destiny. In the AFC, the 37-year-old Manning enjoyed the best season of what will surely be a Hall-of-Fame career, shattering passing records while leading the Broncos to an NFL record for points in a season. Seattle, meanwhile, earned the NFC’s No. 1 seed thanks in large part to a defense that became the first since the 1985 Chicago Bears to lead the NFL in fewest points (14.4) and fewest yards allowed (273.6) as well as takeaways (39). When you factor in the pass-happy era we’re in, Seattle’s pass defense wasn’t just great, it was one of the best of all-time. So when Sherman tipped Colin Kaepernick’s pass to Malcolm Smith for the game-clinching interception in the NFC title game, it didn’t just secure a Super Bowl berth for Seattle, it also set up one of the most
intriguing Super Bowl matchups in recent memory, a classic meeting of an unstoppable force and an immoveable object. “We really embrace that, man,” Sherman said. “As a defense, we respect the heck out of Peyton Manning, but as a true competitor, as competitive as our team is, you wouldn’t want to have it any other way. You want the best of the best, otherwise you don’t feel like you’re getting the biggest challenge of your life. ... It’s just a competitive drive in you. If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. So that’s the only way it can go.” And there is no arguing that this is a best-vs.-best matchup. Manning, whose career was in danger less than three years ago following multiple neck surgeries, established single-season records for passing yards (5,477) and passing touchdowns (55). He carved up opposing defense by spreading the ball around to a group of pass-catchers with diverse skill sets, ranging from a prototypical No. 1 receiver in Demaryius Thomas to a speedy slot receiver in Wes Welker to an athletic tight end in Julius Thomas. And of all the crazy stats the Broncos put up, the most stunning might be that they had four passcatchers produce 10-plus touchdown seasons: Thomas, Thomas, Welker and Eric Decker. For a little perspective on how crazy that is, there were just nine other receivers and tight ends on the NFL’s 31 other teams to accomplish that feat. So it’s no surprise that the Broncos are confident in their offense, no matter who is lined up across from them. “They are the No. 1 defense,” Demaryius Thomas told reporters in Denver. “They have a great defense and we have a great offense. This is what you play for. I think we’ll be
fine.” Yet as confident as the Broncos may be, it’s safe to say they’ve yet to see anything quite like this Seattle defense, which didn’t just have the best pass defense in the league, but the best by a significant margin. Seattle allowed 172.0 passing yards per game, 22.1 fewer than the No. 2 team. The Seahawks’ opponents’ passer rating of 63.4 is 10.8 points better than the next best team. The website FootballPerspective.com came up with a formula to rate pass defense in a historical context by using adjusted net yards per attempt — meaning it factors in sacks, not just actual pass attempts — then factored in a standard deviation relative to the average pass defense that year, and came away with the conclusion that the Seahawks have the fourth-best pass defense since 1950 behind 2002 Tampa Bay, 1988 Minnesota and the 1970 Vikings. Those ’02 Buccaneers won the Super Bowl, and it should be noted that Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was the defensive backs coach of the ’88 Vikings. Seattle’s secondary deservedly saw three players, Sherman, Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor, earn Pro Bowl and All-Pro honors, yet it’s safe to say they’ve yet to see anything quite like Denver’s offense. But Seahawks fans might take comfort knowing that in the previous four Super Bowls to match the league’s No. 1 offense and No. 1 defense in terms of yards, the defensive team won three times. Not only is Denver’s offense talented, it’s also a challenge because Manning has so much freedom at the line of scrimmage, essentially serving as, as Sherman called him, “an offensive coordinator out there.”
“Nobody has ever taken more command of the game than he has at this stage of his career,” Carroll said. “And the coaching staff has allowed that to happen where he can be in total command of what’s going on.” One thing Carroll and his defense know well is that stopping Denver’s passing game isn’t only about the players covering Manning’s targets. If the Seahawks can somehow generate a pass rush to disrupt Manning’s timing, they’ll be doing something few teams have this season. The Broncos allowed a league-low 20 sacks this season, 18 on Manning, and that number clearly isn’t a testament to Manning’s mobility. Instead the Broncos rely on solid pass protection and, even more important, a quarterback who through years of experience has learned precisely when to get rid of the ball and where to throw it. The Seahawks added Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril to improve their pass rush, and it worked, with Seattle registering 44 sacks this season, but even with a strong group of pass-rushers, pressuring Manning, like stopping the entire
best defense. “We have to be able to do everything,” Carroll said. “We have to be able to pressure him, we have to be able to play zone and man, do all of the things. Hopefully give him some new looks he can’t prepare for.

We have to find a way to get him out of his normal rhythm. Very few teams have been able to do that. So it’s a big challenge.” Herald Writer John Boyle: jboyle@heraldnet.com.
