The danger zone The pickup/dropoff lane in front of Blakely is like a pinball machine, only instead of one ball, you’ve got 300-plus kids darting erratically across a narrow bus line, one lonely crosswalk and cars that just keep coming through the school’s single access point. Rebecca Sonsalla, the district’s transportation supervisor who’s been driving routes at Blakely for more than five years, said the afternoon pick-up, especially, is terrifying. “Parents are parked out on the street, in the lot, walking toward 1

Blakely staff talks need while some question cost Safety concerns are just one of the reasons Blakely principal Reese Ande and his staff hope that voters will pass a $81.2 million bond proposal for a new campus. That jaw-dropping figure, on the other hand, is just one of the reasons Rod Stevens, who wrote the ballot’s con statement, is urging residents to vote “no.” Voters will ultimately decide the fate of Proposition 1 during the Special Election on Feb. 9, and the ballot measure, if passed, will fund the replacement of Captain Johnson Blakely Elementary School and the Bainbridge High 100 Building, plus pay for improvements and repairs at other district facilities.
It is not about killing time. Actually, quite the opposite. Jim Mann’s retirement passion is very much about treasuring time. Both his own, by doing good through work he loves, and the things which have withstood it, by returning them to reliable working condition to be enjoyed by generations yet to come. When a client brings him something broken — mysteriously, persistently broken and nobody knows why — that is when Mann is happiest. Then, in his spotless, well-lit workspace, he can begin to solve the mystery, which might be his favorite part of all. A retired marine machinist, Mann and his wife Gail operate a repair business from their Bainbridge Island home. He fixes and maintains clocks, as well as sewing machines and music boxes. She researches the providence of each project, discovering the often surprising past of each new piece that comes through their door, while her husband is downstairs digging into the springs, dials and gears.

Kudos Land trust honors its award winners The Bainbridge Island Land Trust will host its annual membership meeting and potluck dinner from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 29 at the Island School’s Webster Hall. Meeting highlights will include honoring this year’s Phyllis Young Award recipient Christian Doherty and Volunteer of the Year Asha Rehnberg. The Phyllis Young Award is presented each year to an individual that exemplifies the land trust’s mission of preserving and stewarding the diverse natural environment of Bainbridge Island.

volunteered for the land trust in many different capacities and engaged community members and youth in all things nature in her role as Community Programs Coordinator at IslandWood. Together with the land trust, she co-coordinated Bainbridge Island’s first-ever BioBlitz last May, where 100 volunteers were able to identify more than 450 species while surveying four conserved properties. She also served as a land trust lead steward for the Battle Point spit conservation easement, helping not only with annual monitoring but also with removing invasive plants and conducting bird and plant surveys. Additionally, she has conducted an amphibian monitoring project on the nonprofit’s wildlife corridor and volunteered her time as an educational guest speaker during the Student Conservation Corps summer session.

Asha Rehnberg served as the trust’s executive director from 2008 to 2013, will be recognized for her dedication to the organization’s projects, finance and fundraising committees. “Overnight, she seemed to turn her full-time executive director job into a full-time volunteer position,” Barb Robert, the trust’s treasurer, explained, noting the valuable assistance Rehnberg provided in establishing financial requirements for the new Grand Forest Grander capital campaign. The meeting is open to the public; attendees are encouraged to bring a dish to share and their own plates and cutlery to cut down on waste.

Island pals take the plunge Sometimes, the only cure for the flu is leaping into the frigid waters of Rich Passage. At least, that’s what Grace and Emma Sellers had to tell themselves as they scooted off the Point White Pier last January. The sisters, together with Keagan Daniels and Alathea and Kareese Pippinger, have jumped into the Sound every month since October of 2012. So, naturally, they couldn’t let a bout of sickness keep them from their time-honored tradition, which just turned 39 with their most recent dip on Sunday, Jan. 24. Plus, they’re kind of veterans at this. They’ve jumped into 30 degree water. They’ve jumped with ice on the dock. They’ve even jumped and, while swimming back, saw a seal pop out of the water — which, the Pippingers confirm, was “cool, but super scary.” Most of the time, they jump from the pier because it’s closer to their house, Emma said. “But everybody likes the Hidden Cove Dock a lot more because it’s a smaller jump.”

Kareese Pippinger and Grace Sellers emerge from their most recent dip.
Sometimes, with the tide, the jump from the pier can be almost eight feet high, she added. They’re not going to stop until they graduate. Emma and Alathea, both sophomores, have 29 jumps left. Kareese, Keagan and new recruit Alexa Johnston have 53; and Grace will have to get used to doing the polar plunge all by her lonesome, ‘cos she has nearly 90 to go.

Camp Kitezh: Transforming strangers into friends BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
Every time Janie Ekberg visited Russia, she would pick up art. Her first was a watercolor: Dosteovsky sitting on a cow in a middle of a pasture. Next came a whole bunch of winter scenes. And then there was that one time, when she ran out of time and, instead, bought property. The fiber artist, who began traveling to the-then Soviet Union in 1990 as a chaperone for a BPA theater exchange program, had her heart broken by the orphans she saw everywhere after the fall of communism. “Children were being left on the streets and in empty apartments and train stations,” she recalled. “There weren’t enough social agencies to take care of them.” Ekberg carted letters between kids she met in the orphanage and kids back at Grace Episcopal Church, her church back home on Bainbridge. “They would write pretty little notes, Valentines,” she said. And then, one year, back in Siberia for a celebration, she made a big investment;
she bought land. “I didn’t have any time to find art, so I had a little bit of money,” Ekberg explained. Her friend Natasha pointed out two pieces of property. Ekberg had no idea what she’d do with them, but the cost was cheap and Natasha was persuasive. For Russians, a summer dacha offered a five-week respite, a break from factory life, a rudimentary shack to stay in while you harvested vegetables for the winter. For Ekberg, the dacha — which came later, generously oversized thanks to a translation error — was a ministry, a summer camp, a respite for orphans. Pen pals no longer needed pens; instead of letters, she brought kids with balls and bats and crafts to play with them. In 11 years, Camp Siberia served 396 orphans and, with scholarships, helped 23 of them attend college. “We had three doctors out of this program, a lot of teachers, some hairdressers, farm workers,” Ekberg said. Natasha, that visionary friend, would meet up with each of them once a month

Many of the Bainbridge students who visit Kitezh stay in touch with their new friends via Facebook. “These small connections are what keep the world a happy place,” said Loretta Stanton, Bainbridge Island-Kitezh’s president. to dole out money and check in. Unfortunately, the program was forced to disband in 2011 for political reasons. The U.S. had recently put sanctions on Russia, Ekberg explained, and Putin was just “angrier than angry,” she said.
“The principals of the orphanages were told that if they worked with Americans, they would be accused of treason and go to jail. So we couldn’t go anymore. It was heartbreaking.” A former volunteer came to the rescue, though, by introducing Ekberg and
the Camp Siberia board to Kitezh, a collective of foster families more than 2,000 miles away. There, volunteers between the ages of 22 and 40 were raising and teaching 39 children, five of them biological, 12 of them boarders from Moscow and the rest, adop-
tees from local orphanages. Together, they built their own wooden homes, their school, their church and worked the farmland. When their children graduated, they sent them to study at prestigious institutions, to take jobs in factories and to start their own families. Ekberg took her first group, 15 Bainbridge High students and two other chaperones, to work at Kitezh in 2013. “We didn’t know what it would be like, if it would even work,” she said. But a few soccer games wiped away any hesitations she might have had. “Every single solitary night” from 6:30 to 10 p.m., “if it was muddy, if it wasn’t muddy, it was soccer, soccer, soccer,” Ekberg said. Before long, strangers had become friends and the matches ended earlier and earlier — then, all the students wanted to do was talk to each another. Of course, they couldn’t stay up all night with the manual labor that greeted them each morning, for this

eligible for consideration, are eager to figure out who they are, she said, and seem to relish the opportunity to travel to Russia (in addition to Kitezh, students visit Moscow and St. Petersburg). “It’s the idea of going somewhere without their parents for a long extended time where they’re helping people,” she explained.

Bainbridge students are totally immersed in community life during their stay at Kitezh. They give up their cellphones and spend their time working and playing alongside the foster families. someone else,” she said. “But, [by] day four or five, all of a sudden they start questioning what is important and what isn’t important.” For Maya Nathan, a junior who went on the trip last summer, that lesson was about friendship and compassion. “One of the biggest things I learned was how to be compassionate not on your own schedule,” she said. “It’s not just waking up and saying, ‘Today I feel really great; I’ll really give today.’ You have to do that the whole two weeks.” As someone who relishes her alone time, she said adopting that attitude was tough, but the connections she forged there made it easier. “I saw that friendships
don’t really change all the way across the world.” It’s like what Stanton said: “I believe small connections over and over and over are what will keep the world a happy place. All the kids that live in Kitezh, now they know there are other people in the world that are good people. Not everything bad that happened to them is going to happen to them. There are good people everywhere.” On March 19, Bainbridge Island-Kitezh will host a celebration at Grace Episcopal Church. It’s an opportunity for the community to come and learn about the program and meet the students who will be working in Kitezh for two weeks this summer.

In Our Opinion
Kicking the can in Olympia
K
icking the can down the road is a game that kids have played through the ages. Adults, too, are good at this game. Just look to Olympia for proof. Our state legislators are playing a similar game. They are kicking any solution to our state’s education funding mess to the next group of lawmakers in the 2017 Legislature. Not surprisingly, it seems no one wants to squarely take on the issue. After all, for lawmakers hoping to forge a lengthy career in Olympia, it doesn’t pay to take courageous stands or own unpopular views. There’s no doubt that owning up to its responsibility to fund basic education will take courage. The challenge beyond that is in coalescing otherwise divergent views about how to “adequately fund” schools into an achievable plan, as the state Supreme Court’s McCleary decision has mandated. Court justices, who have ruled our current funding mechanism is unconstitutional, have given the Legislature a 2018 deadline to come up with a plan. Until then, they’re being fined $100,000 a day. Adequately funding public education will also require leadership by legislators who possess intestinal fortitude. After all, we’re not talking chump change here. To adequately fund basic education for our public schools, the cost will be in the billions of dollars each year. It’s going to take lots of mental gymnastics, thinking outside the box and a willingness for common-sense compromise. Leadership involves dropping the endless posturing, partisan grandstanding and entrenched positions that have dampened the bipartisan spirit so far. Because state government leaders haven’t stepped up, individual school districts are resorting to running local levies highly unpopular with taxpayers. Even the tax revenues generated by those levies aren’t enough, forcing districts to reach into their operational and maintenance budgets just to maintain the status quo. It’s a “rob Peter to pay Paul” dilemma. Randy Dorn, the state superintendent of public instruction, has been vocal in his frustration with the Legislature and the governor. While taxpayers are on the hook to pay for whatever is decided — when it’s decided — it is only fair that our leaders in Olympia immediately get down to business, get real and agree to a solution that’s equitable and fair for everyone, not the least being our schoolage children.

Letters School bond
Blakely Elementary needs more space To the editor: It is our privilege to teach, encourage, comfort and enjoy the children of our beautiful island every school day at Blakely Elementary. Some of us have been doing so in the building at 4704 Blakely Ave. for decades. We love our school, we are passionate about our work there and we are committed to student learning, safety and emotional well being in everything we do. Each day we face obstacles to ensuring that every student learns because of the age and design of our building. It has served us well, but it no longer is an appropriate place to house and teach children 180 days a year. While issues of inability to control temperature, low light, a leaky roof and lack of power supply access for 21st century equipment concern us, it is the challenge of finding space to provide individualized and small group instruction that is our greatest problem. Simply put, students are trying to learn in the hallways in large numbers every day. The hallways are dark, narrow, noisy and congested by trash cans and food carts because of the lack of a lunch room. Students, parent volunteers and teachers do their best during these lessons and activities, but we are falling short of all that is possible in a modern classroom that includes differentiation of instruction for stu-
dents of all abilities and integrated technology. Please vote YES to pass the new school bond. Our responsibility to educate all children to their highest potential is one we share. We ask our community to help us move forward so that we can continue to be the best that we can be and that our children can spend their school day in a building that is safe, comfortable and supports learning.

Invest in education and Bainbridge schools To the editor: Voting YES on the Bainbridge Island School District capital bond on Feb 9, 2016 is a smart investment in our future as a community for many reasons. Not only will we be providing proper funding for the maintenance of ALL schools with a portion of the capital fund (more than $12 million), we will also be replacing another elementary building that’s failing terribly as a structure (Blakely), while also providing a 21st Century facility at BHS where career, technology and arts programming can flourish (new 100 Building).
This bond will further allow BHS to improve our special education programming for our students who need our support and investment the most. Beyond the obvious benefits directly to our programs and courses offered at BHS, a new state-of-the-art auditorium will enrich our school and community in more ways than I could ever list here in a letter! Since arriving at BHS, I have attended regional educator summits and conferences around the Puget Sound with teams of students and staff. Each host school’s community benefited greatly from the financial windfall of having visitors utilizing their hotels, restaurants and shops as teachers, students and administrators stayed in the area during the events. We can’t host events like this on Bainbridge Island right now. We simply do not have the proper auditorium and complete campus to do so at BHS. While at two of these events, I was directly asked by organizers if BHS would ever consider hosting as many educators, students and professionals would love to visit the island and receive training from one of the top instructional staffs in our state. I had to tell them, “I’m sorry — we simply can’t. We don’t have the facilities to do so.” Now is the time to say yes — we can do it! Let’s invest in our schools and improve our ability to provide opportunities in programs where every student and community member benefits. Vote yes for our schools, our future on Feb 9.

To the editor: I love working with my students at BHS. I’ve worked there as a paraeducator for the past 11 years, and I spend a great deal of my time in the old 100 Building. I am well acquainted with the shortcomings of this 45-year-old building — the plumbing and electrical problems, the inadequate facilities for our special education students and the erratic heating and cooling systems. I also see the limitations this building imposes on students in the art, culinary, technology and drama programs at the high school. The proposed bond would remedy this situation, as well as providing a much-needed new Blakely Elementary school and providing funds to do the necessary repairs and maintenance to keep our schools as one of the best in the state and nation. I will be voting in favor of the bond and I urge you to do the same. MIKE MCCLOUD, President Bainbridge Island Educational Support Professional Association Bainbridge Island
A new Blakely is badly needed To the editor: Buildings matter and there is no simpler way to share this important fact. For the past 50 years Blakely Elementary, the building, has seen countless children, families and community members. It has served our children and the community well. It has done its job! With profound respect, I am proud to say that I have been a part of this rich history. With that said though, it is time to celebrate the past and embrace the future, A NEW BLAKELY. A new Blakely will provide students a safe environment to learn in and allow staff to maximize each child’s potential. Safety first! A student may spend in excess of 350,000 minutes during their K-4 career at Blakely. A new Blakely would provide the essential upgrades needed to support a safe and secure school. Each day I walk through the halls of Blakely and I
am continually amazed by our staff and parents working tirelessly to educate our children in a building filled with obstacles and challenges. I can’t help but wonder though, what if, what if this same effort was amplified in a building that maximized opportunity. What if classrooms were designed in a way that provided flexibility to instruct students without asking them to work in the hallways? What if classrooms were designed to incorporate natural light and the local environment? Buildings matter. Our children matter, and ensuring they have an education that allows them to reach their potential is an investment that benefits everyone. Say yes to schools! REESE ANDE Blakely Elementary Principal
It’s time to replace worn-out buildings To the editor: The Bainbridge Island School District is asking for your support for a school bond that will pay for critical repairs and replacements to Blakely Elementary School, the Career, Technology and Arts facilities at Bainbridge High School (the 100 Building), and other facilities throughout the District. Please join me and vote YES for our schools. Our school kids and teachers do a great job of making the most of those old dilapidated school buildings. But our kids deserve better than cold un-insulated walls and single-pane windows, little natural light, leaky roofs, cramped tech stations, failing plumbing and electrical systems, inadequate earthquake safety and floor plans that do not maximally protect our kids in this unfortunate age of school violence. Almost 50 years old, Blakely and the 100 Building are now worn out beyond their serviceable life. Modern code requirements mean that it will cost almost as much to renovate these buildings as to replace them entirely. Financially, this makes sense. New buildings reduce energy/operating costs, providing more dollars for classrooms. Interest rates are still near 40-year lows and construction costs are rising. Delaying these critical projects will only increase taxpayer costs. Our children deserve this,
and we can afford this. Total school taxes are projected to increase by only $175 per year over current 2015 levels (for median assessed-value home). Let’s build innovative, state-of-the-art facilities for our kids and keep our community vibrant and our real estate values strong. For more information, go to www.bipss.org. Please vote yes on Proposition 1. BRUCE WEILAND Bainbridge Island
State-of-the-art facility benefits all To the editor: I have been teaching at Bainbridge High School since 1995 in the English and theater departments and served as the theater director from 2008 to 2015. Bainbridge High School has a strong arts and career technology program without a proper facility to celebrate and showcase all of the hundreds of hours that goes into any one of our programs: choir, band, theater, visual arts, family/consumer science, technical engineering and most recently a growing robotics program. The 100 Building and the LGI (Large Group Instruction) classroom are antiquated remains of an era that shortchanged our campus in the early 1970s when the architects planned a “compromise” facility for the campus. The LGI is a “classroom/auditorium” without a viewable proscenium stage (many seats are blocked by the projection booth in the middle of the auditorium); the facility has no orchestra pit, backstage storage, costume shop, tech workshop, wing access, dressing rooms or rehearsal space. Now is the time to vote YES for the replacement of the current 100 Building and provide a Career Technology and Arts Building to bring our campus into the true 21st Century of learning opportunities for our students. I would ask each member of our community to question what is our long-term priority for the health of our community? A state-of-the-art facility to infuse both the arts and technical career education will benefit everyone in our community. Provide a respectful facility and the students will respect their learning and the community will have an inviting space to view the rewards of their investment. Vote “YES” on Feb. 9!

Changing the climate requires an immediate change in our human hearts I was talking with a friend and fellow Baha’i about how to frame my comments for this interfaith column. I had chosen climate change as the topic. I think about it a lot. I’ve been on the Island about a year, and this “weather thing” has cropped up several times. As I started writing, I focused on climate change as a human-plus-environment problem and passed the writing on to my friend for review. She said, “People hate each other, Stef, more than they love the planet.” I thought, well, yes. This is true. The overarching dilemma is not the carbon footprint of consumerism; the problem is our fearful relationship with our fellow human beings. After thinking about her remark, I started over. OK. If we, the “brilliant human” species, could get along with each

However, we are too busy finding fault and throwing rocks at

Less on buildings, more on teachers To the editor: A sound, affordable educational system is the backbone of our country. But over recent years, the price of a quality education has skyrocketed, partially because some schools have not effectively controlled costs. Since we will soon vote to fund new school construction projects, now is the time to determine if building costs are being effectively controlled. Wilkes Elementary was constructed in 2012; around this time, St. Cecilia also built a new school. This gives us a good basis for comparison with a school built for the private sector. Wilkes Elementary cost $69,600 per seat, while St. Cecilia came in at $30,000. As an involved supporter of our schools, and a math docent at Wilkes, I have had ample opportunity to see that our kids are being educated in a high-end building with dramatic architectural features and upscale finishes. Unfortunately, receiving an education in an expensive building doesn’t improve the quality of education. We need great people, not swanky buildings. Outstanding educators are the key to a successful educational experience. St. Cecilia is having an open house on Sunday, Jan. 31 from 11 a.m. to 12:45 p.m. Voters should drop by to
see what this private school was able to achieve with 55 percent less money. Some would have us believe that a NO vote on the upcoming bond means we don’t care about education. I will be voting no because we need to spend less money on buildings and more on the people that are educating our children. ERIC E. TURLOFF Bainbridge Island
Give students the facilities they need To the editor: I have been employed by the Bainbridge Island School District for the past 37 years. It has been my pleasure to serve many years as a math teacher and the past seven years as principal of Woodward Middle School. I am writing to support the proposed capital bond on Bainbridge. The 100 Building at the high school and Blakely Elementary are in dire need of being rebuilt. Bainbridge High and the community need a new auditorium and classrooms to support the arts and CTE courses. The current buildings are woefully inadequate. Repairs to both Blakely and the BHS 100 building would cost nearly as much as a new facility and in my opinion would be short sighted. These buildings are 45-50 years old. New construction would provide learning spaces for students that could support new technology for CTE, art, music and theater. We at Woodward have been the beneficiary of capi-
each other over whose land is it, and the resources and lifestyles and stealing money from each other left and right to focus on what could be called a global tsunami. We are too busy with the fears to give the problem a genuine notice. The other thing my friend said is that we must work on developing trust. Do I or you trust our neighbor won’t shoot us? I am thinking here about the global “you.” Or rob us blind, or hurt our children? Do they trust me, or you? Christ said, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” I want to know why this is so difficult. Why is it so hard for us to love our neighbors, wherever they and we live on the globe? Baha’u’llah (the Baha’i founder) continues with: “When a thought of war comes, oppose by a stronger thought of peace; a thought
tal funds to replace our roof, refurbish our gym floor and renovate our track and field in the past few years. Those capital dollars are also very important as our facilities will continue to need repair and remodeling. I strongly urge the voters on Bainbridge Island to support the February bond issue. Every dollar that is collected from this bond will save money for classroom and staffing needs in the general budget. We have a school system that values students first. Let’s give them the facilities they need for years to come. MIKE FLORIAN, Principal WMS Poulsbo
Bond proposal is a disappointment To the editor: Once again Bainbridge voters are asked to fund a grandiose $81,200,000 bond for school replacement. Not too long ago, we replaced Wilkes school at a state-construction cost record-setting level. With Wilkes, and again with Blakely’s replacement, we get the full-court-press PR treatment: “For the kids,” “our future,” “outdated,” “dangerous,” “state-of-theart,” “green.” Honestly, I am very disappointed that voters, already tapped out with recent large bond obligations, are asked to further sink into debt. Taxpayers have been forced to both live within their means and to properly maintain and update their own property. Taxpayers cannot get away with flagrant neglect of their property, failure to update
of hatred must be destroyed by a more powerful thought of love.” What could developing our “trust muscle” do? Einstein suggested, “We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” I wonder if trying to strengthen trust in my all relationships, as the antidote to our fears, is the workout required, my literal assignment, and the solution strong enough to push or pull us to that higher moral ground. So, if mistrust and the resulting self-protecting, fear-based actions are the barrier to solutions and make climate change a “love thy neighbor” problem, rather than an environmental issue, then the solutions to this challenge will be best served when it is faced by a lot of us. If fear and hatred (and resultant war, with its enormous, lasting,
or innovate, and then turn around and demand of taxpayers a brand-new shiny prestigious replacement. Our island, county and state taxing authorities are duty bound to be honest and innovative stewards of the public treasury. Clearly, Bainbridge Island School District 303 has ignored Ben Franklin’s admonition: “A stitch in time saves nine.” Why not? Because taxing special interests get Pavlovian approval of excessive projects. It is high time voters say no to this old sales ploy of up-selling the taxpayers on grandiose projects that further burden our island’s low/ middle/retired classes. The answer should be swift: NO on this $81.2 million bond. Demand BISD 303 properly care for and maintain the treasures we have already paid for. JAMES M. OLSEN Fort Ward
Facilities should be safe, functional To the editor: As educators, parents, and homeowners on Bainbridge Island, we strongly support a YES vote on the Feb. 9 bond proposition to support Bainbridge Island schools. We moved to Bainbridge Island from Bellevue in 2013 with three small boys, leaving a high-performing district with a strong track record of constructing buildings to support the needs of a growing and changing K-12 educational system. To be honest, we were a bit surprised at the state of some of the school buildings here on Bainbridge Island given the excellent reputa-
destructive footprint) play a primary role in our environmental crisis, then it seems logical that trust — when given the same emphasis (consider budgets allocated and human resources assigned) — can take us completely in the other direction. Years ago I wrote a little song. The one line I remember is: “I have a vision that someday everything will stop, and the people of this planet will pull up their chairs and talk.” I hope this happens soon.

tion of the district both state and nationwide. In just a short time working on the Bainbridge High School campus, it became evident that the teachers in the dilapidated 100 Building were successful in spite of the building that housed them. Every student that moves through the educational system on Bainbridge Island has the opportunity to take courses in the 100 Building, as it currently houses programs in the visual and performing arts, career and technical education, and special education. Many of the elective courses offered are limited by the space and functionality of the building, which only discourages the innovative growth that is needed to stay relevant in the changing landscape of high school education. Staff and students on Bainbridge Island deserve buildings that are not only simply safe and functional, but also inspiring to the work they do each day. A YES vote on the upcoming bond is an investment in the future of the Bainbridge Island School District.

Need for district bond is quite clear To the editor: I support Proposition No. 1, the Bainbridge Island School District facilities bond, in this Feb. 9. The need is quite clear to me. I was employed at Airborne Express (now DHL), an international infrastructure-intensive endeav-
or, responsible there for the Capital Investment Cost/ Benefit Analysis Program with annual proposals in excess of $500 million. Impartially quantifying the trade-offs of capital projects is challenging. I had the opportunity there to see which estimates did or did not “pan out” over time. This bond vote comes down to three criteria for me: obsolescence, ongoing cost of use, and affordability. Blakely and the BHS 100 Building have been rated “Poor” (Lowest) in a state-mandated review, deemed insufficient by both safety and current educational needs standards. Voting against this bond is equivalent to voting for unsafe and suboptimal learning facilities for a huge percentage of our island children. In my experience, obsolete facilities like these need to replaced, not renovated. Professionally, I could not recommend retrofitting a 1960s Vega station wagon into a 2016 hybrid vehicle. Similarly, these school facilities have had their day. Time to build new. New facilities reduce ongoing cost of use, due the half century of energy enhancements now available. Finally, infrastructure obsolescence like this does not become more affordable with time. Refurbishments have already been delayed for two decades. A modest tax increase now creates “industry standard” Bainbridge Island facilities to last for three decades. My two children have been through the Bainbridge School system. I am voting yes for future generations. TARA BEATIE Bainbridge Island

New theater is a dream come true To the editor: The upcoming school bond issue includes money to remodel the high school theater (LGI as it’s known). I’m speaking for my late husband, Bob McAllister, and support his views. He taught theater classes for 35 years and directed hundreds of plays there. Thousands of students had life changing experiences in his program. All the while, they dealt with facilities that were mediocre at best. The last time a “remodel” was done, in the 1990s, Bob was deeply disappointed when the board at the time opted to spend money on comfy seats for patrons instead of improvements which would have enhanced students’ experience in the area of theater. Patrons are not always aware of what goes on backstage, but situations were primitive, and even unsafe. Dressing rooms were “borrowed” from other programs, actors had to wait in restroom lines (in costume) during intermission with patrons. Costume storage was horrific and it was difficult to keep track of props. Set construction and tech plans were mostly done outside. Bob was adamant that crew and actors behave as professionals, and the facility stressed the image. Crowds often went to overflow, and the fire code was probably nudged more than once. The “light booth” cut off the view for many in the audience, and probably is a fire code violation in itself. Competition for good seats
was always a challenge for house crew and patrons. So, I’m advocating a remodel of the theater to benefit student programs. Sure, community groups will benefit, but the basic tenet of public school is to provide the best training experience for students. This wouldn’t be a dream come true for Bob. It would be an absolute necessity if our community wants to continue to inspire actors, tech geniuses, responsible team members and happy kids with a place to feel belonging.

Plenty of reasons for Prop. 1 yes vote To the editor: I received my ballot yesterday and you should have as well.

Wilkes supports district school bond To the editor: Students, staff and parents of the Wilkes Elementary neighborhood have the larger Bainbridge Island community to thank for the building and grounds we call “our school.” Many of us worked in the old Wilkes school; a building characterized by the delivery of education popular after World War II. Today, at Wilkes Elementary, the open shared learning areas are filled with natural light and invite the outdoors into the rooms. Throughout the school, small groups of children and staff are learning in areas designed to give them light, age-appropriate furniture and built-in technology. Teachers are able to see (monitor) the various learning spaces through large windows, creating a feeling of “shared” space, not shut away in a windowless room. Our wings have science stations with sinks and counters; each wing has technology carts for ease of access for little people or tall people. Our air quality is excellent and the quiet, efficient heating and cooling system works with the geo-dynamics of the earth, saving the district precious dollars that the older boiler system gobbled up. Children in the Wilkes
hallways have observation windows to music, art, PE and the library, creating yet another feeling of inclusiveness. No long, dark hallways here! Our students eat lunch in our large multi-purpose room, and various grades sit at tables together, not segregated in their classrooms. The multi-purpose room is filled with natural light for assemblies and programs. The gym is a gem for students and the community. It’s always booked for rec leagues and practice! And the staff of Wilkes Elementary? At their fingertips they have current, built-in technology, enabling them to enhance learning for today’s youth. Spacious storage for manipulative and hands-on materials allows teachers to maximize learning space in the classrooms. Outside each classroom wing is another outdoor learning space with tables and areas for buddy class activities. The playground was designed for multiple uses and serves the neighborhood as a local park. Every day, families come to the Wilkes playground to play, talk to each other and socialize. Wilkes is truly a community environment. Hopefully the Blakely community will have the same opportunities for their school.

Zipline would have helped Bainbridge To the editor: As the developer/owner of Pleasant Beach Village, my goal was to make the property a south island gathering spot featuring restaurants and retailers as well as recreation and event space. About a year ago, Matt and Rachel DeSpain approached me with their canopy tour proposal and I immediately said, “Heck no!” As the developer of housing abutting the tour land, I am keenly aware of what might negatively affect value, and a zipline sounded like a circus act. However, as I got to know the DeSpains and under-

stood the nature of the canopy tour, I changed my mind. A seasonal outdoor familyoriented activity would not only be a boon to island residents, but attract visitors to our south end neighborhood. No electricity. No motors. No trees removed. A maximum of 12 participants (and average of six) per tour. Unlike an adrenaline thrill ride, the proposed zipline would be a fun ecological experience and opportunity for tree conservation education. I have been extremely impressed with the DeSpains’ professionalism and thoughtful mindset and it was disheartening to see a group of somewhat misinformed individuals quickly denigrate the endeavor. Vocal objections seem to be “too many people” would come to Lynwood, along with “too much noise,” and a concern of “not enough parking.” Noise from six people in the woods behind Pleasant Beach Village would surely not surpass families enjoying our other amenities. The village has 150 parking spots, and even with large weddings, we have accommodated every guest. This spring, Matt and Rachel will open Bainbridge Island Outfitters at Pleasant Beach Village, which will offer paddle boards, electric bikes and other equipment to adventurous families. I am proud to welcome them and hope over time we can educate residents to the positive impact of a limited-scope canopy tour. For over 70 years, I have been enjoying Bainbridge as both a guest and home owner, and I believe the island would benefit from a fun “eco-adventure” for kids and seniors alike.
has fallen short: the property’s “fair market value” is presumed to be much more than is being offered in any of the proposed plans for development — the implication being that the public’s interests will be poorly served by any development unless the city receives a higher price for the land. If the city were interested in getting the highest possible price for the Suzuki property, it would be marketed without conditions, without any expectation of benefits to the public, and the result might be a gated community, with homes priced high enough to guarantee a profit commensurate with the high price for the land. Wisely, however, the city didn’t just offer the land to the highest bidder, but asked for proposals that would be evaluated with reference to nine “preferred priorities.” As described in the Review’s news article on Jan. 1, those priorities include “a varied housing mix; permanent affordability; green and sustainable construction; open space, community gardens, buffers and connectivity; easement for a safe route to schools; a project that is integrated into the neighborhood.” I’m not an appraiser, or any other kind of real estate expert, but I’ve learned a couple of things about the value of acres of undeveloped land. One is that a large tract doesn’t increase in value at the same rate as a vacant lot in a desirable location. And the reason is that the land’s value is determined by what is going to be built on it and by the other costs of development relative to the market value of the homes when built. The only appraisal that could be relevant to the city’s decision-making would be one that takes into account the costs and constraints imposed by those “preferred priorities.”

Drivers pass between Bainbridge Island and the Kitsap Peninsula on the Agate Pass Bridge. AGATE PASSAGE
Daytime traffic delays expected The Agate Pass Bridge will be reduced to one lane during daytime hours for 11 consecutive days beginning Tuesday, Feb. 16, the state Department of Transportation announced last Thursday. Drivers are advised to expect traffic delays while maintenance crews clean and low-pressure wash the bridge’s steel truss. Crews will also perform other maintenance tasks as time allows. Drivers will encounter single-lane alternating traffic at the bridge between 8:45 a.m. and 3 p.m. weekdays between Tuesday, Feb. 16 and Friday, Feb. 26. On Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 20 and 21, the bridge will be reduced to one lane from 7:45 a.m. to 3 p.m. Bicycle and pedestrian traffic will be escorted across the bridge during work hours. State officials said crews will use articulated underbridge inspection trucks to maneuver around and through the bridge’s steel truss to clean tight spaces that accumulate debris.
“We know that daytime closures will cause traffic delays, but we believe they are absolutely necessary,” said WSDOT Assistant Region Administrator Troy Cowan. 911
Two cyclists hit near downtown Two bicyclists were hit by cars on Madison Avenue in separate incidents less than a week apart. Both accidents happened when visibility was limited due to darkness, and neither of the bicyclists were seriously hurt, according to reports taken by Bainbridge police. The first accident happened just after 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 20. A 24-year-old Suquamish man was pedaling north on Madison Avenue when he got to the four-way stop at the Wyatt Way intersection. He paused and then started north, but a 48-year-old Seattle woman in a 2013 Volkswagen Tiguan began to drive through the intersection and struck the cyclist.
Police cited the woman for failing to stop. The second accident happened at 4:45 a.m. Monday, Jan. 25. A 45-year-old Poulsbo man in a 1998 Acura was delivering newspapers and driving south on Madison Avenue when he made a right turn into the exit-only lane of a business and collided with a bicyclist who was pedaling south on Madison. The driver said he did not see the bicyclist on his right, who was in the bike lane. The bicyclist said the driver made a sudden right turn in front of him and he could not stop in time before he struck the passenger side door of the vehicle. The bicyclist, a 38-yearold Bainbridge man who was on his way to the ferry, complained of back, chest and leg pains. He was treated at the scene by medics but did not want to be taken to the hospital. An officer gave him a courtesy ride to the ferry terminal. Police ticketed the driver for an improper right turn and no proof of insurance. ISLAND SCHOOLS
Blakely to get climbing wall

Ratification pushed back A new contract for classified employees of the Bainbridge Island School District was not up for approval at Thursday’s board meeting as earlier expected. Mike McCloud, president of the Bainbridge Island Education Support Professional Association, said updating the contract according to the terms of the mutual agreement reached on Jan. 19 has been a lengthier process than expected, and the ratification meeting for the new contract has been pushed back to early February. McCloud hopes to present the contract to the school board at its Thursday, Feb. 11 meeting instead. BAINBRIDGE PARKS
Students at Captain Johnston Blakely Elementary will soon have another reason to look up: an anonymous donor has given $25,000 to the school for a Rockwerx indoor sculpted rock-climbing wall. The custom climbing wall will be installed in the gym at Blakely and officials said it can be easily taken apart and moved in the future.

Bainbridge announces members of city utility task force BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
The city of Bainbridge Island’s assembled a group with thick — and relevant — résumés to serve on a new task force that will study the possibility of establishing a city-run electric company. City Manager Doug Schulze announced that he had selected the members of the task force at last week’s council meeting. The group, a bit larger than first imagined, had its inaugural meeting late last week at city hall. Originally, Schulze expected to create a task force of eight to 10 members of the community. With 22 people expressing interest in serving on the task force, however, the group was expanded to 16 community members.
The task force members are: Richard Beam, the director of energy management services for Providence Health & Services and former board member for the Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance; Dale Perry, a global commercial deal director for the alternative fuels division of Celanese Corp., a U.S.-based chemicals company; David E. Schutz, president and founding partner of Hoffman Schutz Media Capital, an investment banking company; Eric Moe, a senior developer with University Mechanical Contractors; Garry Sobeck, a retiree who last worked as division chief for the San Diego County Assessor’s Office; John H. Cunningham, a
former lineman for Puget Sound Energy who is now an assistant business manager for International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 77, and recently negotiated a collective bargaining agreement with Jefferson County PUD; Kris Kutchera, an IT executive who is a board member and secretary at the Technology Access Foundation, and was a founding board member of the University of Washington Information School; Leonard Korslund, a former line worker who retired after 32 years at Seattle City Light; Lori J. Pastucha; formerly the enterprise administration services manager for the city of Anaheim Public Utilities Department; Marc Zocher, a program manager at BayForge and a

Islander arrested for DUI BY REVIEW STAFF
A Bainbridge Island man was arrested for impaired driving earlier this week while he was behind the wheel of the same car he crashed during a DUI accident in December, according to police. The man, 30, was arrested just after 10:30 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 24 on Highway 305 just south of George Lane. A deputy from the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office pulled the driver over after he passed the officer’s parked patrol car while heading west on Highway 305, and the officer saw the man’s 2008 Honda Accord had a headlight that wasn’t working. The deputy later learned the headlight had been broken in a collision that involved the man and the Honda in mid December. After the traffic stop, the officer noticed the driver had glassy and bloodshot eyes, smelled of alcohol, and his speech was also
slurred. When asked where he was going, the driver told police he was heading to Safeway. The driver also had a swollen area above his left eye, and he said his wife had punched him about a half hour earlier at their home on Bainbridge. A Bainbridge officer went to the man’s house to speak with his wife, who was surprised that her car was gone and said she had gone to bed and left her husband “passed out drunk” on the couch. Police determined there was no probable cause to make an arrest for assault. The driver admitted to drinking wine earlier that day, starting at 10 a.m., but said he had stopped drinking at 2 p.m. He failed roadside sobriety tests and was arrested for DUI. Two breath tests revealed results of .236 and .234. The driver was then taken and booked into Kitsap County Jail.

2X THE TALENT
ISLAND THEATRE
Bookstore hosts double bill of local authors
C
New plays sought for Ten-Minute Fest
BY REVIEW STAFF
haracters in quandary abound during Eagle Harbor Book Company’s upcoming double bill of visiting local authors on Sunday, Jan. 31. An aspiring ballerina seeking perspective in the arctic and a floundering florist finding her way with her canny canine companion; these are the protagonists brought to life in Jennifer Longo’s “Up to This Pointe” and Kristin von Kreisler’s “Earnest,” respectively, and both will be stopping by the shop to talk about these, their latest published works. First, from noon to 1 p.m., Longo will arrive to talk about her sophomore offering, a young adult adventure of self discovery. Longo was a ballerina from the age of 8 to 18, until she eventually (though reluctantly) admitted her talent for writing exceeded her talent for dance. The author of “Six Feet Over It,” she holds an MFA in Writing for Theater from Humboldt State University, where her obsessive love of Antarctica produced her thesis play about the region’s storied Age of Exploration, a theme which her latest book revisits. She lives in Seattle with her husband and daughter. Learn more about her writing at www.jenlongo.com. In “Up to This Pointe,” the main character Harper had a solid life plan, and then it suddenly went south. Really, really south. Harper is a dancer. She and her best friend, Kate, have one goal: becoming professional ballerinas. Harper won’t let anything or anyone get in the way of “The Plan,” not even the boy she and Kate are both drawn to. Harper also happens to be related to Robert Falcon Scott, the explorer who died racing Roald Amundsen and Ernest Shackleton to the South Pole. So when Harper’s life takes an unexpected turn, she finagles her way to the icy dark of McMurdo Station in Antarctica. It’s extreme, but somehow fitting. Apparently, she has always been in the dark, dancing on ice the whole time. And no one warned her. Not her family, not her best friend and not even the boy who has somehow found a way into her heart. It will take a visit from Shackleton’s ghost — the explorer who didn’t make it to the South Pole, but who got all of his men out alive — to teach Harper that success isn’t always what’s important. Sometimes it’s more important to learn how to fail successfully. Then, from 3 to 4 p.m., Bainbridge Island’s own Kreisler will visit the store to talk about

Bainbridge Island’s Kristin von Kreisler, at right, will visit Eagle Harbor Book Company at 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31 to discuss her new book, “Earnest.”

Seattle-based young adult author Jennifer Longo comes to Eagle Harbor Books at noon Sunday, Jan. 31 to discuss her new book, “Up to This Pointe.” her new book, her follow up to the much-acclaimed “An Unexpected Grace.” Kreisler writes articles and bestselling books about animals. To get her stories, she has traveled to some pretty wild locales — including following a grizzly bear for a week, hang gliding to see how an eagle feels soaring through the sky and watching in awe as millions of bats emerged from a cave at dusk like clouds of smoke. Visit her on Facebook or at www.kristinvon kreisler.com to learn more. Like her first novel, “Earnest” features a
puppy protagonist who aides his humans in overcoming difficulties. It is, in fact, this one’s name. Earnest is the perfect name for the titular character, a sweet, eager-to-please yellow Labrador retriever. Anna and her boyfriend Jeff fall for him the minute they see those guileless eyes gazing up from behind his gate at Seattle’s Best Friends Shelter. In no time at all, they’re a pack of three, with Earnest happily romping in their condo on Gamble Island. During the day, Earnest keeps Anna company in her flower shop, located in a historic gingerbread Victorian on the island’s main street. Anna hopes to buy and restore the house, once owned by her beloved grandmother. But, when that dream is threatened by Jeff’s actions, Anna’s trust is shattered. For so long, the house has encompassed all her ideals of security, home and family. Yet, Earnest’s devotion to his two people, and theirs to him, make it impossible for them to walk away from each other. And when a crisis hits, it’s Earnest — honest, stubborn and uncannily wise — who will help Anna reconcile her past and embrace what the future can bring. EHBC, located at 157 Winslow Way East, is open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

The campaign endeavors to change the narrative around refugees, both those fleeing violence in the Middle East and those fleeing gang violence in Central America, from one of fear and resentment to one of peace and welcome. Those who have pillowcases to bring are encouraged to do so Saturday, but there also will be pillowcases on hand for participants to use.

Spartan girls come up short 55-31 against Rainier Beach BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
The visiting Vikings laughed first, last and best in Friday night’s girls varsity basketball showdown, exactly the same manner in which they racked up enough points to cinch a decisive victory over the Bainbridge Spartans. The final score saw the squad from Rainier Beach ahead 55-31. The Vikings scored first and would outscore the Spartans in ever quarter except the fourth. In the first, they sprinted ahead to an intimidating lead (16-5). It was a run which continued unabated in the second (20-8). Down 36-13 going into the third, the Spartans scrambled to come up with a response to Beach’s steady gains. They were faster on the court, they were more aggressive beneath the net and they led 43-15 with about 4:30 left in the quarter. Still, the last few minutes of the third saw a bit of a fire light under the Bainbridge squad, and the game entered the fourth quarter with them having scrambled and fought their way up to a decidedly better, if still not great, situation — down 49-22. It was in this final fracas that the BHS team brought it in full and managed to outscore the visitors and keep their scoring efforts in check (9-5). It was not enough to turn the tide, but Spartan Head Coach Nicole Hebner said the team left nothing on the court. Playing like they did in the fourth, she said, it was possible,

BHS senior Katherine Usellis makes a dash toward the hoop during Friday’s home game against Rainier Beach. Usellis managed five and Paulina Bredy chipped in four. The loss at home was the girls team’s third Friday night home court defeat in as many weeks, bringing their overall season record to 3-10 (2-8 in conference). Hebner said that the biggest issues facing the team on the court Friday night were the possessions that slipped away. “Turnovers have plagued us
every year,” she said. “We have to be in control when we play. If we can work hard, and we try as hard as we can, we’re just going to get better and better.” There are five regular season games remaining on the Spartan schedule after the Rainier Beach contest. Bainbridge is ranked in sixth place in the Metro Mountain standings. Bishop Blanchet boasts
the top spot with a flawless season record of 16-0. Lakeside sits at second (9-4 overall), Seattle Preparatory at third (8-8), Holy Names Academy at fourth (7-7) and Eastside Catholic at fifth (4-5). The Spartans traveled to play against Lakeside Wednesday, Jan. 27, and will return home to host Ballard High at 6 p.m. Friday, Jan. 29.
Rainier Beach swamps Spartans 86-63 in boys hoops BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Luciano Marano | Bainbridge Island Review
BHS junior Brendan Burke thrashes his way free from a tag team attack by Rainier Beach defenders during Friday’s home game.
The balance that marked the early part of Friday’s boys varsity basketball game was anything but delicate. The Bainbridge Spartans and the Rainier Beach Vikings broke out into a brutal back-and-forth — in which the BHS squad led initially — at the tipoff, and nipped each others heels all through the early part of the game with neither team gaining much advantage over the other. Then, just a minute or so before the end of the first half, Rainier Beach got on a run. It was a palpable moment that reverberated through the crowded island gymnasium, and a run that would continue in the third quarter, leaving the Spartans to play catch up for the remainder
of the game. The eventual 86-63 loss would be the Spartans’ third straight Friday night home court defeat in as many weeks. Outscored in every quarter perhaps, but the Spartans were far from discouraged and were in fact making tangible advancements with every outing, BHS Head Coach Steve Haizlip said Friday. “We’re disappointed,” he said. “But we talked about being consistent and working hard and being committed to each other and not an individual, and we’re taking those steps and I thought tonight — other than a few minutes here and there — we really tried to play together and play hard and play committed. “And, if we do, we’re going to be OK,” he added.
The Vikings barely edged their way into the lead in the first quarter (15-14) before finding their groove in the second (31-17). Down 45-32 going into the second half, the Spartans kicked things into high gear and hung just behind their guests (22-17) in the third. It was an obvious turning point, Haizlip recalled. “That’s what good teams like Rainier Beach do,” he explained. “They hang with you and they usually score in spurts, in chunks. We were trying to limit that, but they’re a good team and it’s a hard thing to do.” The fourth quarter then saw the Spartans outscored 19-14, and missing some of the focus TURN TO HOOPS | A25

The third saw Sealth pull ahead and outscore the Spartans for the first time (24-19), and the fourth quarter bore witness to a decisive run by the host, outscoring BHS 17-8 for the win.

Spartans fall in double-header SEATTLE - The Bainbridge High varsity wrestling team went 0-for-2 in a doubleheader matchup against Nathan Hale and O’Dea on the road Thursday, Jan. 21. The Spartans first lost 48-21 against Nathan Hale and then, in the second match of the night, came up short against O’Dea 72-6. Against Nathan Hale, Bainbridge claimed two forfeit victories. The host racked up seven, and double forfeits negated two brackets. Nathan Hale’s Zayab Nasir pinned Oleg Maguire in just 26 seconds in the 126-pound bout. BHS’ Clay Wren scored the first Spartan win of the night, an 11-7 decision, in the 152-pound match against Drew Kent.

Siqi Talley was second (33.6) and Emma Chee placed third (32.2). On bars, Rosencrans also brought home a first place for BHS with a score of 8.7.

they came back so well with in the previous quarter. “They never backed down,” Haizlip said of the Spartans. “We’re going to be fine.” There had been only two outings this year, the coach said, when he did not see the team give their all. “Garfield (Dec. 11, away) and Prep (Dec. 18, away) were the only ones where I thought we weren’t really there,” he said. “Every other game is right there.” Haizlip praised the team’s character and perseverance amidst the competition of such a tough season. “In Metro right now, every team is really good,” he said. “I wouldn’t say there’s any one particular team we’re scared of. They’re all really good, but if we play hard we’ll come out on top. “Records really don’t mat-
ter,” he added. “At the end of the day, when this is all said and done, we all go home.” BHS’ Lyle Terry led the Spartan scoring efforts with 21 points total against Beach. Brendan Burke put up 16, Marcus Clyde managed eight and Miles Gori chipped in seven. This latest loss at home left the Spartans with an overall season record of 5-9 (1-8 in conference) and occupying the sixth spot in the Metro Mountain Division standings. Seattle Prep remains in the top spot with an overall record of 10-6. The BHS squad next hit the road Tuesday, Jan. 26 to face off against Lakeside and will return home to host Ballard High at 7 p.m. Friday, Jan. 29. Regardless of the opponent, Haizlip said that the team will prepare in the same manner and come ready to play just as hard as they can.

“He’s always, always been interested in fixing things,” Gail said. “He just had that curiosity and the skill to do that sort of work.” What began as an attempt to repair his wife’s sewing machine — a successful attempt, too — quickly made Jim aware of a greater need. “I would fix her machine and pretty soon I was fixing her friends’ machines,” he remembered. “And Gail, in order to keep me out of trouble, suggested I go to school and learn formally. “I resisted,” Jim laughed. “Like I do most everything.” Eventually he agreed, though, and found the experience incredibly appealing. He attended and completed a class in Portland, Oregon, wherein he was instructed and certified in sewing machine repair. He came home and began advertising his services, but it was another personal job that put him on to the idea of working on clocks. When two of their own at home stopped working properly, Jim, in true Jim

Jim and Gail Mann run a clock and sewing machine repair business from their Bainbridge home. fashion, took them apart and fixed them. “Pretty soon friends started bringing me their clocks,” he said. “My family started bringing clocks. So Gail said, ‘Go back to school.’” Education is critical in clock repair, Jim explained, as there’s simply so very much to know. The required training to work in the industry, let alone become an actual clockmaker, he said, is extensive. “I didn’t get a certification,” Jim explained. “To be a clockmaker, I think I’d rather try to go be a doctor. It’s quite an education.”
He did, however, learn enough to, as they say, be dangerous. Several courses and a lot of personal research later, and Jim was confident enough to begin offering clock repair — not watches, but mechanical wall clocks, grandfather clocks and mantle clocks — alongside his sewing machine services. Music boxes, actually quite similar to clocks mechanically, he said, were another unexpected avenue his new business took when a customer asked him to take a look at one. But all the projects Jim undertakes share a common

of, ‘Jeez, I’m not making money on this customer.’ “It’s a learning curve for me,” he admitted. “But I don’t have to sweat it. If I don’t have any clocks or sewing machines tomorrow, I’ll go fishing,” he laughed. Jim said he considers the ability to sit down and fix something oneself to be a vanishing skill in today’s culture and was glad when he was asked to do some work on sewing machines for a local school’s home economics class, a sign of renewed interest in the trades, he said. “I really love when somebody brings me a broken sewing machine or a broken clock,” he laughed. “Just to bring one in to service it is kind of a no-brainer. When it doesn’t work, I love that. That’s what I like the most.” Visit www.biclocks.com or call 206-780-9648 for repair services and costs.

tears.” Sewing machines, too, she said, are often treasured heirlooms as well as tools themselves. And whatever important items are created with the newly repaired machine — fanciful costumes, elegant clothing, works of art or simple necessary stitching — is an achievement that they can then share in as well. Jim completed work for nearly 300 clients last year -—not including some volunteer sewing machine repair work he has done for several local schools and Purdy Womens Correctional Facility — though the number of jobs per month can vary greatly. But that’s actually another thing he likes about the business. He can take the time to do things right. “This business is not our livelihood,” he said. “So I’m able to work with my customers without the concern

theme: They are all dearly beloved possessions, some of them very old, in need of attention in a national marketplace that has become designed more around the concept of easy replacement rather than repair. “The thing about clocks is that they mean a lot to people,” Gail explained. “They may have been in their families for generations. People don’t want to turn their clock over to somebody who isn’t good at what they do. There’s a certain amount of trust that goes into turning that clock over.” After fixing a clock, both Gail and Jim agreed that it feels good to be a part of a special experience, to perhaps give something back to the client. “One man that he fixed a clock for hadn’t heard it chime since he was about 12 years old,” Gail said. “And when Jim set it up and set the chimes, he burst into

designated workspace for them, she’s forced to put them away. It’s a learning loss, she said. “When not easily accessible, students often forget these tools are available to help them with their designs.” Students that need to use the bathroom have to take a key to let themselves into the building. “This is not easy for kindergarten and first-grade students,” she said. “Usually, they have to go in pairs and work time is lost.”
Science Standards, completing engineering design challenges to develop content knowledge and problem solving skills “essential in our world today.” Storage issues, Bedell said, often disrupt the student experience. Her small cabinet and open shelving aren’t expansive enough to store the 3-D models students build over consecutive classes or even the materials needed to construct them, meaning models sometimes get broken. “Because of the crowding, student projects can get damaged or simply misplaced,” she said. Valuable classroom time is wasted as students search for missing work. And suddenly, she has a super disappointed kid on her hands: his earthquake-safe building got crushed prematurely and now he has to start over or stare at all the other kids’ projects and wonder what went wrong with his. Bedell has lots of cool tools — saws, drills, hot glue guns, hammers, etc. — for cutting-edge construction, but because she has no
New location for ballot box Island voters are reminded that Bainbridge’s 24-hour ballot drop box has been moved to a new location. The box, which was previously located outside the Bainbridge Island Fire Department’s Madison Avenue station, is now located on the west side of the Bainbridge Island School District’s administration building at 8489 Madison Ave. NE., next to the driveway. Drivers should be able to access it from their side window. The drop box will remain open until 8 p.m. on Election Day, Tuesday, Feb. 9. Proposition 1 needs a 60 percent supermajority in order to pass.
Sticker shock Stevens, who wrote the statement against Prop. 1 for the county voters’ guide, is not against a new Blakely per se; he’s just against excessive spending. “When it comes to good buildings, most people here will vote for a Toyota or even a Lexus, but [the district’s] asking for a Range Rover,” he said. “They’re asking to spend too much money for buildings that won’t produce a good educational return.” Stevens, a revitalization strategist and financial analyst, calculates that
the district could save taxpayers $18.9 million on the cost of a new

Blakely if they “eliminated unnecessary capacity” (reduced the number of seats from 450 to 425) and built it at the same cost per seat as two new elementary schools in Issaquah, which he noted district officials have already indicated are comparable. “The Blakely plan amounts to $103,000 per student compared to $65,000 per student in the new Issaquah schools that the district has benchmarked, or less than $70,000 per student in two new Seattle schools benchmarked by the district,” he explained. A “no” vote is a vote against bloat, said Stevens, who has kids at Sakai Intermediate and Woodward Middle School. “There’s a General Election 10 months from now. If we vote ‘no’ now, that gives the district 10 months to revise its plan and get it right.” This extra spending, he added, isn’t getting us better education. “In fact, Blakely, the school they want us to replace, is designated as excellent by the state, but not Wilkes, the new school they opened several years ago.”

their kids. Kids are walking toward their parents, kids are getting on the bus — it’s amazing.” The set-up is the problem, Sonsalla explained. “The safety concerns are about the separation of cars and buses — there is none. We line up really tight because kids walk through buses, parents walk through buses to get to the sidewalk, but you can’t monitor everything. Children are small; they’re in elementary; they don’t get it.” Although nobody has been hurt yet, Sonsalla is wary. “We’re cautious of what’s happening in the road, but we really have no control over that,” she said.

International Migration
Great Decisions at the Library returns with the topic, “International Migration,” from 9:30 to 11 a.m. Saturday, Jan. 30 at Bethany Lutheran Church. As a record number of migrants cross the Mediterranean Sea to find refuge in Europe, the continent is struggling to come up with an adequate response. Although Europe’s refugees are largely fleeing conflicts in Syria, Iraq and parts of Africa, their struggle is hardly unique. Today, with the number of displaced people worldwide at an all-time high, world powers find themselves facing a difficult question: How can they balance border security with humanitarian concerns? More importantly, what can they do to resolve these crises so as to limit the number of displaced persons? Kathie Friedman, associate professor of international studies at the Jackson School of International Studies, will serve as moderator for the free program.
Pete Seeger program
Bainbridge author Kristin von Kreisler at 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31 at the Winslow bookstore. From the bestselling author of “An Unexpected Grace” comes a richly insightful novel of matters of the heart both human and canine in an uplifting story of love, loyalty and new beginnings.

You will learn the context for such familiar songs as “Where Have All the Flowers Gone?” and “Turn, Turn, Turn.” Of course, the audience will be invited to sing along.

June 7, 1934 - January 15, 2016. Longtime Bainbridge Island resident and businessman, Mathew Charles (Chuck) MacLearnsberry, died Friday evening, Jan. 15, 2016. Chuck was born in Carver, Oregon, on June 7, 1934 to Matthew and Willa (Steele) MacLearnsberry. After graduating from Tahoma High School, he served in an engineering battalion in Germany before graduating with a degree in logging engineering from the University of Washington. In 1959, he married Barbara Mariann Meyer, his wife of 56 years, and embarked on a career in land surveying and civil engineering. Following stints with various firms, including Pope & Talbot, where he coordinated the design and construction of the Port Ludlow Golf Course and its community, Chuck established his own engineering firm on the Island, which he operated for nearly 40 years before his retirement. A dedicated civic volunteer and member of Kiwanis, Chuck was also involved with the Boy Scouts, the Special Needs Foundation, regular readings for school children and seniors, firearms safety education, neighborhood emergency preparedness, inmate outreach and various charities. He is survived by his wife, Barbara; a stepbrother, Charles (Sue) Overaa; a son, Bruce (Kadi); two daughters, Heidi (Dean) Newcomb and Jenna (Daniel) Campau; 12 grandchildren, Naomi (Matty), Stephanie (Dana), Kirk, Brett, Brian, Siri (Nick), Cyan, Blake (Ashley), Brina, Joel, Geordie and Maxim; and one great-grandson, Rocko.

WWW.BAINBRIDGEREVIEW.COM
Bainbridge blotter Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter. MONDAY, JAN. 25 9:54 a.m. The manager of a Bainbridge auto repair business called 911 to report a hit-andrun collision in the parking lot. A woman had backed her 1989 Ford F250 pickup into an employee’s vehicle, a Volkswagen Passat owned by a 39-year-old Auburn man. The caller said the driver left, going south toward New Brooklyn Road, and another employee began following the woman but came back to work and said the pickup was parked at the church on the corner of Madison Avenue and High School Road. The manager said the woman has had a vehicle in the shop for repair but only partially paid the bill. She came in and said she was going to pay off the bill, but when she found out how much she owed, she became angry and went out to her vehicle. The manager said she then backed up, hit the other vehicle, then drove off. Police examined the victim’s vehicle and found several fresh scuff marks on the plastic cover of the front bumper. The manager later called 911 again to say they discovered another vehicle had been hit by the woman. The driver of the other car, a 24-year-old Bainbridge man, said the 2015 Subaru was a rental. There was damage to the front passenger door and door mirror. Police reviewed a video from the business and saw the woman had backed into the Subaru first, then pulled forward, then began backing up again when she hit the other vehicle. An officer found the woman parked in the Fletcher mini-mart parking lot. She did not have a current insurance card, but told the officer that she paid for her insurance online and had valid insurance. The woman was told the case would be forwarded to a prosecutor for hit-and-run and she responded that she would rather “pay for the damage than deal with a prosecutor and judge.” She also said she would probably have to go to jail and noted she did come back to the scene of the accident, and though it was an hour later, she “did not see the big deal.” After talking further with an officer, the woman became upset and said she can’t live in her own country and began screaming she was an Indian American. One of the victims later contacted the woman’s insurance company and found out that her policy had expired. SATURDAY, JAN. 23 9:32 p.m. Police saw a 42-yearold Bainbridge man in a 2015 VW Golf station wagon drive into the oncoming traffic lane to go around a “Road closed” sign and barricade on Wing Point Way. The driver then continued along the closed road, but eventually pulled into a driveway next to a home and turned around. Police followed the vehicle back to Ferncliff Avenue, where the driver was pulled over. The driver said he was just trying to get home and was tired of taking the detour. He said he turned around because he saw that he was being followed by police. The man’s eyes were watery and he slurred when he spoke. He also had a very strong odor of alcohol on his breath. The man said he had consumed two pints of beer before driving. He failed roadside sobriety tests and an initial breath sample had a result of .098. Later, tests at the
police station revealed results of .092 and .094. The man was arrested for DUI and booked into Kitsap County Jail. His vehicle was impounded and towed. FRIDAY, JAN. 22 6:52 p.m. A 24-year-old Bainbridge Island man in a 2001 Jeep was driving west on Winther Road on his way to deliver a pizza when he looked down at his GPS device and drifted off the road. The Jeep went into a ditch and hit a power pole. A transformer on the pole was damaged. The driver was not wearing a
seat belt and injured his nose; he was transported for medical treatment by an aid unit. The vehicle, which sustained front-end damage, was impounded and towed. A manager for the pizza shop came and picked up the driver’s money bag. 8:16 p.m. A 66-year-old Bainbridge man in a 2006 Honda Accord was heading north on Highway 305 when he stopped for the signal at Day Road and was struck from behind by a 2015 Ford Fusion, driven by a 65-year-old Clearwater Beach, Florida woman. She said the crash happened after her foot slipped off the brake pedal and went onto the accelerator pedal and she
couldn’t stop in time. Both vehicles were driven from the scene. TUESDAY, JAN. 19 8:58 p.m. A 44-year-old Bainbridge woman in a 2006 Honda CR-V SUV was driving on High School Road and entered the roundabout at Madison Avenue when a 49-year-old Bremerton woman in a 2003 Chevy S10 pickup going north on Madison approached the intersection. The Bremerton woman pulled into the roundabout as the Honda neared and collided with the other vehicle. She was cited for failure to stop. THURSDAY, JAN. 14 8:16 p.m. A driver in a 2016 Nissan was traveling south on Highway 305 just north of Day
Page A33 Road when he went into the ditch. A witness said he saw the vehicle swerving before it went off the road. The driver of the Nissan, a 30-year-old Bremerton man, said he didn’t remember the crash and may have fallen asleep. Police found no signs of impairment or intoxication. The driver was treated by medics and driven home by his wife. A tow company removed the vehicle from the side of the road. The driver was cited for not having proof of insurance; the vehicle was a company car and was new. WEDNESDAY, JAN. 13 8:24 a.m. A red kayak was discovered floating in the ferry lane in Eagle Harbor about 75 yards
away from the ferry terminal. There were no people in the water, no paddle and no lifejackets in the kayak. Observers noted an unusual tide that day. A construction company used a crane to pull the kayak out of the water and it was secured at the city’s public works yard. The kayak was owned by a 48-year-old Bainbridge man, who said it had floated away from his Wing Point property. FRIDAY, JAN. 8 8:16 p.m. A witness saw an elderly man in a 2014 BMW hit a 2012 Nissan Versa while backing up in the parking lot near the Rite Aid and then drive away. The witness was not sure that the man knew he had hit another vehicle.

A 59-year-old Bainbridge Island woman was taken to Harrison Hospital for treatment of possible neck and back injuries after she was hurt in a dramatic two-car accident in the heart of downtown Winslow late last week. According to Bainbridge police, the accident occurred at approximately 2:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 21 when a 24-year-old Seattle man in a 2007 Toyota Scion was head-
ing west on Winslow Way just past Ericksen Avenue. The Bainbridge woman, who was also headed west on Winslow Way, was in front of the Seattle man in a 2013 Subaru Outback. Just as the two vehicles began to pass the Town & Country Market, the Seattle driver smacked into the rear of the Subaru, which sent the vehicle crashing into a crosswalk pole and metal railing on the opposite side of the street from the grocery store.
Witnesses said the Seattle man appeared to be speeding at the time of the collision; the man told police he saw the other vehicle but could not stop in time. Emergency responders descended on the scene and traffic downtown came to a standstill. The Bainbridge driver was taken to Harrison Hospital by an aid car. The Seattle man was cited for inattentive driving.

inston Churchill said, “Most people hate the taste of beer to begin with. It is, however, a prejudice.” With breweries and the craftbeer market growing, it’s safe to say Washingtonians have become prejudicial about their fondness for beer. According to the Washington Beer Commission, there are
Kitsap’s growing brew culture
308 breweries in the state of Washington, up from 281 in 2014. Of those 308, 14 are situated in Kitsap County. “I would love to see more in Port Orchard,” said Scott Kirvan, owner of Slaughter County Brewing in Port Orchard. “It wouldn’t hurt to build a beer culture here.”
Overlooking Sinclair Inlet in Port Orchard, Slaughter County Brewery used to be a restaurant and lounge called the Beachcomber that thrived in the 1970s. Kirvan said he likes the history of the location and even named the brewery after the county’s original name.
In the 1880s, Kitsap County was Slaughter County, named after Lt. William Alloway Slaughter, a local man killed in 1855 in the Yakima War. However, it soon became apparent that people didn’t want to live in an area called “Slaughter.” Two years later, in the county’s first election, several names were optioned, none of which were “Slaughter.” The name Kitsap eventually See BEER, Page 2

won, but the history hasn’t been lost on Kirvan. “A friend told me, ‘Breweries do a lot of land claiming.’ They get named after the neighborhood they’re in, or landmarks,” he said. “That’s why we have our Blackjack Brown, named after Blackjack Creek right there.” Kirvan, like other brewers in the area, believes that in today’s society beer is closely tied to culture, and its development is a fascinating history. “A big thing for me is beer education,” Kirvan said. “I want people to think differently about craft beer and what it means to be drinking fresh-brewed beer.” Kirvan said it’s a brewer’s job to find a beer for everyone. “We vary base malts, yeast, fruit, some have sour, so there is a lot of variety,” he said of Slaughter County’s brews. “They all taste vastly different, so we can hit a lot of people’s taste. Find a beer for everybody: that’s our job.” Kirvan said he has been brewing for about 35 years. He used to live in Minneapolis, working with a software company when he and a friend pooled money to buy a home-brew system. After working in Los Angeles and then moving to Seattle for a few years, Kirvan bought property on this side of the water and established Slaughter County Brewing in 2011. “We opened in August 2012 but established it in 2011 because it takes
a while for a brewery to come together and happen,” he said. Kirvan describes his brewery as an “Irish pub overrun by pirates.” With decor looking as if it was Jack Sparrow-approved, it’s an apt description. Slaughter County isn’t the only brewery in the area with unique ambiance and history. In Bainbridge Island Brewery’s flagship line: the Kommuter Kolsch, Eagle Harbor IPA, Bainbridge Island Single Hop Pale Ale, Arrow Point Amber, and Battle Point Stout. Silver City Brewery has a tap room in Bremerton and flagship restaurant in Silverdale. It is named for “Silver City,” the convergence point right before you jump off into the wilderness of the Olympic National Forest on your way to the Pacific Ocean. Unlike most breweries, which usually are dark and metallic, the flagship restaurant is flooded with light from its large windows that show off a wilderness scene that’s reminiscent of a century ago. Valhöll Brewery in Poulsbo has a Nordic theme inside, with reclaimed wood and metal from the area used throughout. The brewery is named after the great hall of Odin, where warriors who die as heroes in battle dwell eternally. Another interesting fact: a library that was pro-Prohibition was once located on the site. Valhöll’s owner Jeff Holcomb used to visit the library and laughs about how he now brews in the corner he used to read in
as a boy. Newcomers to the area, Wobbly Hops and LoveCraft, recently opened in downtown Bremerton on Fourth and Fifth streets, respectively. Wobbly Hops has a white rabbit theme, with brewed-beer varieties called Hopping Mad, IPA, Hopalong Banana and Belgian Dubble. LoveCraft, just opening this month, gives customers a front-row seat with a bar facing the gleaming three-barrel brewing system to watch beer being made. Sound Brewing in Poulsbo serves Belgianstyle brews and, like Slaughter County, Der Blokken Brewery in Bremerton and Slippery Pig Brewery in Poulsbo also serve a full menu. Although all 14 breweries are in the same business, Kirvan said there is no competition among brewers. In fact, they all drink at each other’s establishments. “The brewing community is awesome. [The other local breweries] were all super-supportive when we opened,” Kirvan said. “I could drive across the country and feel at home with other breweries. It’s pretty cool.” With the diversity of brewing just in Kitsap County, Kirvan has stepped outside the realm of brewing just a simple pale ale. “We have a really good handle on fruit,” he said. “In the summer, we brew a blackberry Belgian white with black pepper and blackberries called Luna Negro.” Luna Negro is a play on See BEER, Page 3

Continued from page 2 the popular West Coast beer Blue Moon, also a Belgian White-style beer. Kirvan likes word play when it comes time to name beers. For example, he originally objected to making a pilsner until he brewed his Gorst and, eventually, Gorst Light (named after the unincorporated community on Sinclair Inlet, neighboring Bremerton). A group from Seattle came and asked why he didn’t have Pabst Blue Ribbon. “I said, ‘I’m not serving PBR. I’d rather make a crappy beer for you,’ � Kirvan said. “The funny thing is, it turned out really good and it’s cheap.� And he was able to make a “Gorst Light� shirt with a logo that resembled that of Coors Light. One of his favorite things about brewing is the engineering behind it all. “I like to know how things work, and beer is one of those things,� Kirvan said. “The amount of influence beer has had on our culture and society fascinates me.� The culture of Slaughter County Brewing has grown. In the past year, it hit 200 barrels of production and was in the top third most-brewed in the
Several local restaurants also rotate Slaughter County beers on tap. “Every community should support their brewers,� Kirvan said. “The closer to the beers home, the better the beer tastes. It helps the local economy and the community. We

Before joining the team, most of these women had never played team sports, and none had participated on a team with other women. Led by an American graduate student teaching and coaching at AUIS, this is a team that is learning the game of basketball, discovering what it means to be athletes, and struggling to win its first game. The personal stories of the individual team members offer insight into life in Iraq that is not necessarily shown in news coverage.

Beaver State is focused on Pinot Noir NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
I
t’s been more than a half-century since Pinot Noir was planted in the Willamette Valley and launched Oregon’s modern wine industry. Some 50 years later, Pinot Noir remains the grape of choice for the majority of Oregon winemakers. In fact, the suave red grape most commonly associated with France’s Burgundy region dominates the landscape, with more than 60 percent of the state’s acreage dedicated to it. Here are several delicious examples we’ve tasted recently. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant. ■ Argyle Winery 2013 Artisan Series Reserve Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $40: This reserve-level red comes with a dark and brooding nose of currant, plum and cherry with truffle-like earthiness and molasses. The drink offers more ripe red fruit with strawberry, pie cherry filling and sweet herbs. Its round and delicious structure brings a juicy finish of cranberry

(13.5 percent alcohol) ■ Panther Creek Cellars 2013 Fir Crest Vineyard Pinot Noir, Yamhill-Carlton, $45: Aromatics lead with intense hints of dark cherry, black currant, exotic spices and minty chocolate chip. Inside are dense black cherry flavors, supported by moderate tannins, pomegranate acidity and a farewell of saddle leather, cocoa powder and Montmorency cherry. (13.1 percent alcohol) ■ Sharecropper’s Wine Co. 2014 Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $21: The 2014 fruit-forward vintage helped allows for a darker expres-

everyone with its aromas of dark cherry, dusty blueberry, dried strawberry and vanilla, backed by touches of brown sugar, saddle leather, coffee and pomegranate. On the palate are opulent flavors of black currant, plum and blueberry that lead to a chocolaty mouth feel. Its long finish of pomegranate and cherry picks up a pinch of fresh herbs. (13.5 percent alcohol) ■ Reustle Prayer Rock Vineyards 2013 Pishon Bloc Pinot Noir, Umpqua Valley, $34: Mouthwatering aromas of dark strawberry, cherry juice, red currant and cranberry give way to a remarkably creamy and

Black cherry, marionberry, bittersweet chocolate, toast and earthy aromas lead to delicious and dense flavors of black currant and dried cherry, backed by boysenberry, pomegranate and caramel. (14.1 percent alcohol) ■ Archery Summit 2013 Red Hills Estate Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $85: This begins with complex aromas of boysenberry, strawber-
ry-rhubarb jam, red currant and moist earth. On the palate, bright flavors of strawberry, Montmorency cherry, cranberry and milk chocolate are backed by juicy acidity that lifts that fruit and sets the table for a finish of plum, pomegranate and fresh leather.

elegant entry with black cherry and more strawberry. Yet there’s complexity as Montmorency cherry acidity and plum skin tannins create a gradual rise to the body. Notes of young leather and caramel in the finish give it pleasing breadth. (13.6 percent alcohol) ■ Ponzi Vineyards 2014 Tavola Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $25: The nose offers strawberry/rhubarb compote, boysenberry and cola with a dusting of baking spices and a pinch of fresh mint. On the palate, it’s rich and graceful leading with flavors of dark strawberry and cherries. Elegant tannins and plum juice arrive on the midpoint as cranberry and cocoa powder combine for pleasing length. (13.7 percent alcohol) ■ Elk Cove Vineyards 2013 Five Mountain Pinot Noir, Chehalem Mountains, $60: This starts with a nose of cordial cherry, strawberry/ rhubarb compote, cranberry and fresh caramel. Its structure is smooth and supple with a pleasing approach of Bing cherry, plum and pomegranate. Support from milk chocolate hints at the 10 months in 40 percent new French oak barrels as mild tannins make for a silky finish. (13 percent alcohol) — www.greatnorthwestwine.com.

C.E. Edmondson wins National Illumination Award BOOKENDS What’s happening on the local literary scene C.E. “Chuck” Edmonson of Poulsbo (www.ceedmonson. com) is recipient of the gold medal in the 2016 Illumination Book Awards for his latest novel, “Always October” (paperback, 322 pages, Aventine Press). “Always October” is the story of an aging veteran who takes readers on an emotional journey through his life of loves and losses — and shares with them an inspiring lesson he’s learned along the way. The Illumination Awards are designed to honor the best new titles that inspire readers exploring their faith. Judging panels of librarians, teachers, and book reviewers reviewed more than 1,000 nominated books from throughout North America and overseas. “Our world is filled with anger and selfishness, and people are looking for something to have faith in, something beyond themselves,” awards director Jim Barnes said in an announcement of Edmonson’s award. “Edmonson’s book ‘Always October’ was right on target — beautifully written, delivering a powerful message that stays with you long after you put the book down.” Edmonson’s novel will be highlighted at this year’s Illumination and

Pole. So when Harper’s life takes an unexpected turn, she finagles (read: lies) her way to the icy dark of McMurdo Station . ... in Antarctica. Extreme, but somehow fitting; apparently she has always been in the dark, dancing on ice the whole time. And no one warned her. Not her family, not her best friend, not even the boy who has somehow found a way into her heart. It will take a visit from Shackleton’s ghost — the explorer who didn’t make it to the South Pole, but who got all of his men out alive — to teach Harper that success isn’t always what’s important; sometimes it’s more important to learn how to fail successfully.

She and her best friend, Kate, have one goal: becoming professional ballerinas. And Harper won’t let anything or anyone get in the way of The Plan, not even the boy she and Kate are both drawn to. Harper is also a Scott. She’s related to Robert Falcon Scott, the explorer who died racing Amundsen and Shackleton to the South

157 Winslow Way E. Celebrate the release of “Earnest,” von Kreisler’s latest novel. From the bestselling author of “An Unexpected Grace” comes a richly insightful novel of matters of the heart both human and canine, in an uplifting story of love, loyalty, and new beginnings. Earnest: It’s the perfect name for a sweet, eagerto-please yellow Labrador retriever. Anna and her boyfriend Jeff fall for him the minute they see those guileless eyes gazing up from behind his gate at Seattle’s Best Friends Shelter. In no time at all, they’re a pack of three, with Earnest happily romping in their condo on Gamble Island. During the day, Earnest keeps Anna company in her flower shop, located in a historic gingerbread Victorian on the island’s main street. Anna hopes to buy and restore the house, once owned by her beloved grandmother. But when that dream is threatened by Jeff’s actions, Anna’s trust is shattered.
For so long, the house has encompassed all her ideals of security, home, and family. Yet Earnest’s devotion to his two people, and theirs to him, make it impossible for them to walk away from each other. And when a crisis hits, it’s Earnest — honest, stubborn, and uncannily wise — who will help Anna reconcile her past and embrace what the future can bring.

Learn how to gather your family medical history A useful tool in understanding your health risks. By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
I
t’s important that you know the health history of all members of your family, especially your elders. Family members share genes, behaviors, lifestyles, and environments that together may influence their health and their risk of chronic disease. Most people have a family health history of some chronic diseases (e.g., cancer, coronary heart disease, and diabetes) and health conditions (e.g., high blood pressure and hypercholesterolemia). People who have a close family member with a chronic disease may have a higher risk of developing that disease. tFamily health history is a written or graphic record of the diseases and health conditions present in your family. A useful family health history shows three generations of your biological relatives, the age at diagnosis, and the age and cause of death of deceased family members. Family health history is a useful tool for understanding health risks and preventing disease in individuals and their close relatives. The first step is to talk to your family. Write down the names of blood relatives you need to include in your history. The most important relatives to include in your family health history are your parents, brothers and sisters, and your children. Next, you may want to talk to grandparents, uncles and aunts, nieces and nephews, and half-brothers and halfsisters.
Gathering your family health history should begin by talking to family members and then recording known risk factors to share with your physician. Contributed photo Ask questions. To find out about your risk for chronic diseases. Ask your relatives about which of these diseases they have had and when they were diagnosed. Questions can include: Do you have any chronic diseases, such as heart disease or diabetes, or health conditions such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol? Have you had any other serious diseases, such as cancer or stroke? How old were you when each of these diseases was diagnosed? What is our family’s ancestry – what country did we come from? For relatives who have died, be sure to ask about cause and age of death. Record the information and be sure to update it from time to time. To orga-
nize the information in your family health history you could use a free webbased tool such as “My Family Health Portrait.” Share family health history information with your doctor and other family members. Your family health history can give you an idea of your risk for chronic diseases like cancer, heart disease and diabetes, but it is not the only factor to consider. If you are concerned about diseases that are common in your family, talk to your doctor at your next visit. A doctor can evaluate all of the factors, including family health history, that may affect your risk of some diseases, and can recommend ways to reduce that risk. My Family Health Portrait lets you know your risk (increased, not

increased) for diabetes and colon cancer based on your family health history and other risk factors. Even if you have a high risk family health history of diabetes, colon cancer, or another condition, that does not mean that you or your family members will definitely get that disease. It is important that you talk to your doctor about steps that you can take to lower your chances of getting the disease. Once you have your family health history gathered, be sure to take it along when you see your physician. Use it as a guide to your preventative health care. Gathering a complete and accurate family medical history is extremely important as genetic medicine explains more diseases. In fact, the Surgeon General has named Thanksgiving as Family History Day. Since several family members gather together on Thanksgiving Day, it’s a great opportunity to talk to family members and learn more about their health history. For more information, go to www. familyhealthhistory.org. Genetic Alliance also developed a collection of resources to guide you through the steps of collecting your family health history and sharing the information with your family and healthcare provider.

Getting a good night’s sleep is sometimes hard By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
T
here’s nothing like a good night’s sleep. And there’s nothing as bad as not getting a good night’s sleep. According to David Corley, a sleep specialist with Harrison Medical Center, the best way to guarantee a good night’s sleep is to establish a routine. “To optimize sleep, you need to have a routine,” Corley said. “You need to go to bed the same time every night.” But just when that is, will depend on your age and how much sleep you need, he said. Suggested averages are: Age 0 to 3 months: 14 to 17 hours a day; infants 4 to 11 months, 12 to 15 hours a day; toddlers, ages 1 to 2 years need 11 to 14 hours a day; preschoolers ages 3 to 5 Dr. David Corley years need 10 Contributed photo to 13 hours a day; school-age children from 6 to 13 years old need 9 to 11 hours a day and teenagers 14 to 17 years should have eight to 10 hours of sleep a day. Corley said adults ages 18 to 65 years should get from seven to nine hours of sleep each night, and those 65 years of age or older should sleep seven to eight hours a day. “That’s how much sleep a normal person needs,” he said. “If you aren’t getting that and you’re waking up feeling tired, than you know you’re getting poor quality sleep.” In order to get a good night’s sleep, Corley suggests setting up the right envi-
The sleep study room at the Harrison Sleep Clinic is where professionals study the sleep habits of those who have problems sleeping. Contributed photo ronment. “Make sure you have your bedroom cool, quiet and an environment without bright lights,” he said. “That means turning off the TV and the laptop or phone at least an hour before you want to fall asleep.” He explained that a person’s brain preserves light and thinks it’s still daytime, if exposed to bright lights before bedtime. If you’re spending time in your bedroom or in bed prior to when you actually plan to go to sleep, that can be a problem, too. “Too much time awake in your bedroom will tell your brain it’s not the place for sleep,” he said. He said the brain will begin to release melatonin only an hour or two after sunset. If you are still exposed to bright light, the brain will not release the natural chemical that induces sleep. Another way to help your body prepare for sleep is to exercise at least 20 minutes a day, but not within four to five hours of the time you plan to go to sleep. Corley said don’t drink any caffeine after
lunch time, and don’t drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes within a few hours of sleep time. For children, he suggests a “wind down” time prior to bedtime. “Have a quiet time for the kids,” he said. “And keep the TV and the tablets out of the kids’ rooms.” Ideas include reading to children or have them read to you. Or tell stories to each other. What about sleeping with animals … the cats or dogs? “That’s something that depends on the person and the animal,” he said. “For some it’s reassuring. But for just as many others, it’s not.” For example, he said, if you shut your dog out of your room and he or she just whimpers outside your door, that will keep you up. But with other dogs, they won’t lay still and that will keep you from sleeping. The most recent Gallup Poll showed that from 40 to 50 percent of Americans don’t feel like they get enough sleep, Corley said.
“On average people in the 1940s got eight hours of sleep a night,” he said. “Now the average is 6.8 hours.” School-age children to teens need the most sleep, he said, because that’s when the brain is developing. “The brain’s neurons are making connections,” he said. “That’s when learning happens. It takes that deep rim sleep to realize the brain’s full potential.” If you are having a hard time getting good sleep, it is safe to try over the counter sleep aids, if you take them as directed, Corley said. But if the problems continue for more than a couple of months, then you should seek help. Harrison has sleep clinics in Bremerton and Poulsbo. Most of the time, patients are just seen in the office and can get help with their sleep problems by talking to sleep doctors. Sometimes, however, patients need to sleep overnight at the clinic and have their sleep patterns observed. It is at these clinics that problems such as sleep apnea are diagnosed. Other medical reasons for poor sleep can be chronic pain, restless leg syndrome, depression, high blood pressure, and learning disabilities such as ADHD. To find out more, call Harrison Sleep Disorders Center in Bremerton, 2520 Cherry Ave., Bremerton, 360-744-6812, or Harrison Sleep Disorders Center in Poulsbo, 19917 7th Ave. Northeast, Suite 210, Poulsbo, 360-782-5700. Dr. David E. Corley’s specialties include critical care, internal medicine, pulmonary medicine and sleep medicine. He is a graduate of Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington, D.C., and had his internship and residency at Virginia Mason Medical Center in Seattle. He is one of six sleep specialists at Harrison Medical Center and has been in practice for more than 25 years.
Choosing a denturist takes knowledge and time By ANDERSON DENTURE and DENTAL
A denturist is the only professional legislated “exclusively” to serve individuals with removable dental prosthetics. A denturist’s entire required curriculum of study focuses on the oral health of those individuals needing a dental prosthetic and the actual fabrication of that appliance. The denturist actually makes your dentures. Your denturist is an expert in the design, construction, insertion and adjustment of removable dental appliances. Your licensed denturist has graduated from an accredited or approved college denturist program and passed the state’s board of health two-day examination. This board examination not only includes the sciences involving oral health issues, but also the technical skills necessary to actually fabricate your denture. This expertise makes choosing a denturist the best possible choice to help
you derive the maximum benefit from up-to-date dental prosthetic technology. When you choose a denturist for your denture needs, you can be assured of expert personalized care. Knowing you are being seen by the individual who will actually make your dental appliance offers confidence that your unique need will be met. Your denturist is devoted to creating full or partial dentures that fit well, look natural and attractive and allow you to maintain a healthy smile. The advantages of our dental center is that we offer both services of a denturist and dentist. We provide personalized professional services at affordable prices without compromising quality. Our attention to detail and warm personal service will make your visit to our dentist office enjoyable. We sincerely consider our patients part of our extended family and enjoy the times when they just drop in to say hello.
Sometimes, the pleasant chatter in our reception room is like a family reunion and every member of our staff enjoys helping each patient feel at home. We provide our patients the services of both a dentist for general dental needs and a denturist for denture services. Our in-house laboratory where our denturist actually fabricates the dental appliances offers our patients the most personal, affordable and expedient care available. Please call our office in Poulsbo at 360-779-1566 to set up an appointment with on of our dentists or denturists.

What you need to know about physical examinations By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
Y
ou’ve heard it all before. Getting a physical examination is important to keeping well and detecting any problems before they become big health care issues. But just what should be a part of a physical exam? And what’s the difference between a physical exam and a wellness exam? According to the American Medical Association, a wellness exam is much like any other annual physical, except that it focuses not only on what the patient’s current condition is but also on what screenings (such as for cancers) and other preventive services (such as vaccinations) the patient might also need and for which most insurances pay the full cost. Unlike most regular physical checkups, the wellness exam includes an assessment for the detection of cognitive impairment — meaning the early signs of Alzheimer’s or other dementia. For older patients, part of the wellness exam is the preparation by the doctor of a written plan noting the screenings and other preventive services the patient should obtain. And, during wellness exams doctors are encouraged to discuss end-of-life planning with their patients, which includes an advance health care directive (also called a living will or power of attorney for health care).
For women (of any age)
Height and weight measurement (if not already done). Blood pressure and heart rate check. Screening for family medical issues, Assess your risk of future medical problems. Checking lymph glands in your neck, under your arms, and in the groin. A vision check and eye examination. Looking in your ears. Peering into your mouth to examine your teeth, gums, and the back of your throat. Feeling your thyroid gland (which is located in the front of your neck). Listening to your breathing. Listening to your heart. Feeling your belly for any lumps or painful spots, and checking the size of your liver and spleen. A pelvic exam, to check your vagina, uterus and ovaries. Routine checks for sexually transmitted infections are often done. A Pap test and HPV test can screen for cervical cancer and help assess risk. Beginning at age 21, women should have a pelvic exam and Pap smear every three years to check for cervical cancer. Ask your provider about the human papilloma virus (HPV) vaccine if you are between ages 18 - 26 and you have not received the HPV vaccine in the past. If you are over age 30 or your Pap smear and HPV test are normal, you only need a Pap smear every five years. If you have had your uterus and cervix removed (total hysterectomy), you do not need to have Pap smears. Women who are sexually active should be screened for chlamydia infection up until age 25. Women 26 years and older should be screened if at high risk.
Talking with your physician about health concerns should be part of your annual physical examination. Tests and procedures differ depending on age. Contributed photo Women also need a breast exam, looking for lumps or other abnormalities. Screening mammogram is not recommended for most women under age 40. If you have a mother or sister who had breast cancer at a younger age, or you have other risk factors for breast cancer, your provider may recommend a mammogram, breast ultrasound, or MRI scan. If you are between ages 20 - 40, your provider may do a complete breast exam every three years. If you are between ages 20 - 45, you should have a cholesterol screening if you have a higher risk for heart disease. In healthy women, screening will begin at age 45. If you have diabetes, heart disease, kidney problems, or certain other conditions, you may need to be monitored more closely. If your blood pressure is above 135/80 mm Hg, your provider will test your blood sugar level for diabetes. If you have a body mass index (BMI) greater than 25 and have other risk factors for diabetes, you should be screened. Having a BMI over 25 means that you are overweight. You should also see a dentist and an eye doctor annually. And the AMA suggests that you should get a flu shot every year. After age 19, you should have one tetanus-diphtheria and acellular pertussis (TdAP) vaccine as one of your tetanus-diphtheria vaccines. You should have a tetanus-diphtheria booster every 10 years. You should receive two doses of varicella vaccine if you were born after 1980 and never had chickenpox or the varicella vaccine. Your provider may recommend other immunizations if you are at high risk for certain conditions, such as pneumonia. You should be screened for colon cancer only if you have a strong family
history of colon cancer or polyps, or if you have had inflammatory bowel disease or polyps yourself. After age 50, you should have a screening colonoscopy and then follow what your physician tells you. It may be that you will not need another colon screening for 10 years, if yours is normal. After the age of 50, women need to have a bone density screening every two to three years. Your physician may also ask about your mood, problems with depression, diet and exercise, alcohol and tobacco use, safety issues, such as using seat belts and smoke detectors. A physical should also include examining your skin, looking for abnormalities such as moles, growths or rashes, checking your joints, such as your knees, hips and shoulders, checking your back for any abnormal curves, checking your reflexes, strength, and sensation. Laboratory tests should include a complete blood count, chemistry panel and urinalysis.
For Men
In your 20s:
NATURAL HEALTH Whole Food Nutrition & Supplements/Digestive Health/ Autoimmune Disorders
Our patients come first. Each patient receives customized and focused treatment based on their body’s needs.
Annual physical exam by your primary care physician, including blood pressure, and height/weight checks. Screening for testicular cancer, including monthly self exams. Cholesterol testing every five years. Depending on your individual circumstances, your doctor may want to do an electrocardiogram to check for heart disease, and blood tests to screen for diabetes, thyroid disease, liver problems, and anemia. Depending on risk factors, your doctor may also recommend screening for skin cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, HIV infection, and alcohol abuse. At age 30, an exam should include all of the above, plus a vision examination, screening for coronary heart disease in individuals with strong family history and/or risk factors. At 40, men should add a screening for prostate cancer, and a diabetes screening every three years over the age of 45. Depending on risk factors, your doctor may also recommend screening for skin cancer, oral cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, and alcohol abuse. Get a vision examination annually and a screening for coronary heart disease in individuals with strong family history and/or risk factors. In your 50s, add the following to your exam: screening for lipid disorders, electrocardiogram, vision and hearing examinations, screenings for prostate cancer, colon cancer with fecal occult blood testing, sigmoidoscopy, or colonoscopy, screening for coronary heart disease in individuals with strong family history and/or risk factors, and a screening for depression Your doctor will add a screening for osteoporosis, will continue colorectal screening based upon previous studies and results and will screen for depression, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, once you turn 60. In your 70s and older, physicians suggest continued colorectal screening based upon previous studies and results. General screening until age 75. Discuss with your physician screening if aged 76-85 years old. Screening is not recommended for those older than 85. Doctors will continue to screen for depression, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.

Sharing among the generations at Martha & Mary By LESLIE KELLY

D
on’t be surprised if next time you drop by Martha & Mary Health and Rehab Center in Poulsbo, you see young children and seniors creating art together. Or sharing a dance. Or even eating ice cream. It’s all a part of the Intergenerational Program at Martha & Mary. The program couples children from the learning and child care centers with seniors who reside at the health care facility. “The program allows the kids to share with the seniors, and vice versa,” said Tracie Walthall, residential life services director with Martha & Mary. “But what they all learn, is that love and affection can come from anybody,” said Berni Booher, program supervisor at Martha & Mary KIDS Child Care Center. It doesn’t matter whether they are sharing an arts and crafts project, enjoying music, or just sitting and sharing a book or magazine, the children and the seniors are interacting. “The love they give each other has no barriers,” said Booher. “When they sing together it is the most beautiful sound.” It was more than 20 years ago when the program began, according to Walthall, who has worked for Martha & Mary for 26 years. “It was the brainchild of Joanna Carlson, who was then director of children’s services,” she said. “She worked with Randee Schmidt, the activities director, on creating an intergeneration program that would serve both the children and the residents.” Staff at Martha & Mary were aware that some of their residents didn’t have grandchildren, or didn’t get to see their grandchildren very often. And they knew, too, that some the children in their childcare
A resident at Martha & Mary shares time with a student from Martha & Mary’s KIDS child care center as part of its intergenerational program. Contributed photo center didn’t get to visit their grandparents much, or maybe didn’t even have grandparents. So the idea of getting those two groups together seemed very appropriate. Children, up to age 5, come in groups of six to 10 and visit the residents on the short term and long term residential care units and those in the Alzheimer’s unit daily. “Sometimes they’ll make crafts including hand-decorated paper bags that are used in the gift shop,” said Booher. Other times the children will sing and dance for the seniors. They take part in “Show and Share,” where the children bring special toys to show the seniors and the senior bring special items from their rooms to share with the kids. On holidays, the children make cards for their senior friends and deliver them room by room. They have holiday parties
and, of course, trick-or-treating. The children take special care to make birthday cards for the residents, and on each senior’s birthday, they deliver the cards and sing “Happy Birthday” to them. At Thanksgiving, some of the residents take a trip to see where the children attend school and are treated to a Thanksgiving dinner. There also are some older children who attend the M & M KIDS Before and After School program, who take time to visit with the senior residents. Currently there are 98 children in the child care center and 30 at the children’s learning center. There are 168 seniors who are residents at Martha & Mary. Sometimes the kids and the seniors share memories, like the time an elderly resident was asked about what kinds of games she played when she was young. “She told them ‘Red Rover,’ where
7
they’d throw a ball over the roof of a house,” said Booher. “The kids were like ‘Wow you did that?’” Booher said she’s seen some children be timid or reserved at first. “They aren’t sure how to act around older people,” she said. “But that goes away and the kids warm right up to them. There’s an acceptance of the aging process.” In some cases, the sharing isn’t even verbal. “I saw once where a little girl was sitting with an older lady and she’d look at a page in a magazine and then slide it over to the lady,” said Booher. “And then the lady would do the same thing. It was just their way of sharing.” The children also learn what behavior is needed when they go to “grandma and grandpa’s house,” she said. As for the seniors, there are some who don’t partake in activities at the health center. But they are always there when the kids come to visit, said Walthall. She added that there are those residents who don’t want to take part in exercise programs, but they’ll participate in the music and movement (creative dance) time with the kids. “The kids get them to try things,” said Booher. “There was this one time when the kids were making (paper) snowflakes with the residents and one lady said ‘Oh I can’t use scissors.’ A child stepped up and said ‘I’ll help you.’ “There’s just an acceptance between the kids and the residents. They know they can be friends and there are no barriers.” To learn more, call Martha & Mary, 360-779-7500, or go to www.marthandmary.org. Martha & Mary is celebrating its 125th anniversary this year.
Attitude and gratitude: ways to stay positive in 2016 By LESLI DULLUM-TUTTERROW Special to Healthy You
We are immersed in chaos and mayhem both at home and abroad, as exemplified by numerous mass shootings. We have economic uncertainty. Political self-interest often takes precedence over what is best for the majority. And of course, we have our enemies acting as the devil incarnate in the form of ISIS, wreaking havoc all over the world. It can be said we are living in challenging times. And yet, since the beginning of humanity there has been no shortage of greed, evil, and mayhem, dating back to Adam rolling Eve under the bus, or Jacob stealing Esau’s birthright. None of this chaos is new, rather it has taken on new and more tragic forms. So how do we avoid becoming fearful, joyless, negative, powerless, and pessimistic in the midst of what can certainly feel like overwhelming personal, local, and global problems? The answer, I believe, lies within us. Since many of our circumstances are beyond our control, we must learn to develop new habits that will help us cultivate healthy, positive attitudes. There is an old Native American tale that speaks of a young boy conversing
with his grandfather. The grandfather shares that there is a battle of two wolves living inside each one of us; one is good and the other is evil. The little boy inquires as to which one wins. The wise elder replies, “whichever one you feed.” We need to pay attention to which thoughts we feed, as they will form the basis of our feelings, attitudes, and ultimately, our actions. Since our circumstances encompass both elements we can influence and control, as well as things we cannot, we must choose where to focus our thoughts. Many of us experience a black cloud that ominously hangs over our head because we are so consumed with things we cannot control, we fail to see what we can control. To be clear, I’m not suggesting we put our head in the sand to the tragedy, chaos, or problems that befall us. I am suggesting, rather, that we identify and take action in areas we have control over, and surrender those we cannot control. This allows us to maintain more positive attitudes and is actually better for our mental, emotional, and physical health. In other words, becoming more positive is less about our external circum-
stances, and more about how we choose to think about them. This may necessitate retraining our thinking. Learning to focus on what we think and feel internally, rather than over-focusing on what is happening externally, is a process which requires effort and energy to become habit, yet will ultimately yield great rewards. In addition to developing the habit of tuning in inwardly, another beneficial habit we can cultivate is adopting a heart of gratitude. Research has shown that people who choose to feed their “gratitude bank,” i.e. optimists, are actually happier than those who feed “the other wolf.” Gratitude is not something that comes naturally for many of us. Rather, it needs to be practiced. One simple exercise is to purposefully begin every morning by thinking about something you’re thankful for. Keeping a daily gratitude journal is another way to form the habit of gratitude. Many things in life will inevitably remain beyond our control. Ultimately, when we choose to let go of what we cannot control, take action where we ought, and cultivate a heart of gratitude, we will make optimism our new norm. Start the year working on attitude and gratitude
and you’ll likely enjoy many positive days in 2016 and beyond. Lesli Dullum-Tutterrow is a certified counselor, author, speaker and owner of Optimal Wellness Inc. She counsels and consults for individuals and businesses. Email her at optimalwellnessconsulting@gmail.com

Is your neck hurting? It just might be ‘Tech Neck’ By DR. ANGEL WUNDER Special to Healthy You
Our lives have become inundated with technology — computers, phones, tablet, even watches. We all tend to spend more and more time with these devices in a body position that is impacting our health on a daily basis. “Tech Neck” is the term used for this position, formerly known as “Student Syndrome” in chiropractic circles. This position is described as body flexion — head down, arms down and in front with the upper back rounded forward or slouched. Chronic flexion can lead to a multitude of problems from muscle spasms, cervicogenic headaches (headaches caused from the neck position), neck and back stiffness, lowered immune response, costal (rib) pain to hyperkyphosis (an increase in the curvature of the mid/upper back), hypo loridosis (decrease in the neck curvature) and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS). It can decrease respiratory function, impede digestion, increase symptoms of GERD and decrease the curvature of the lower back, leading to lower back issue like sciatica. Loss in the curvature of the neck is a common result both initially and overall. Did you know that your head weighs up to 35 pounds? Imagine taking a bowling ball and holding it in your palm. OK, not too tough, right? Now imagine holding the bowling ball palm down. This simulation
LEFT: Normal Loridotic Curvatature of the Cervical Spine; RIGHT: Hypoloridosis of the Cervical spine or “Tech Neck.” Photos courtesy of Yocum and Roe Radiology Guide, Vol. 2 gives you an idea of how body mechanics change when you lose the curvature in your neck from chronic flexion. As we continue to be in this position our joints begin to wear in that position making it easier and easier to slip into flexion. If your a leg crosser, try crossing your legs in the opposite way...probably not too comfortable? That’s an example of the wearing on the joints and the same can happen in the neck and upper back. So now that we are all so dependent on these devices and inherent body position, what do we do about it? Here are some simple things that help correct present
conditions and possibly prevent further problems: Sit up straight! Anyone hearing your mother’s voice in your head? It’s easier said than done! As we remain focused on our devices our bodies slowly go more and more into flexion. To prevent ourselves from slipping into flexion when using a desktop computer, raise the monitor to eye level or above. This will force your body to sit in a more ergonomic position as our body follows the position of the eyes. Consider getting a detached or wireless keyboard for laptops and tablets and keep the device on an
elevated surface. Hand held devices are a much more common and harder to control body position while using, so be sure to take frequent breaks from them. Stretching is an important subject with any sedentary activity. Be sure to incorporate mid-back straightening movements like arching your back and touching your elbows behind your back, neck stretches from side to side and leaning your head back with your head turned, standing side bends and twisting from the waist. These will help reduce muscle strain and thus decompressing your spine. Spinal decompression will allow waste materials to move out and nutrients to move into the most important parts of your body — the spinal column and brain. Wearing a thoracic harness such as an infinity strap is also an inexpensive way to get support while using these devices. If you experience pain with any of these stretches be sure to contact your chiropractor. Regular visits to your chiropractor can alleviate many of these conditions, keep your immune system strong and ensure that conditions do not progress.

Things to think about when choosing a workout gym By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
It’s the first of the year and getting fit is on your mind. You want to join a gym, but you’re just not sure where to start. Here’s some help for area fitness leaders on how to choose a gym. All gyms are not created equal, so the first step is to visit a number of the gyms and exercise locales in your area. Think about the size of the place, and if you’ll feel comfortable in a crowd. Or
do you want a smaller gym with less people? Experts say to visit the gyms at the time of day when you’ll be working out. That way you will see just how busy the gym is when you’re gong to be there. Evaluate the equipment each gym has. Do you want treadmills, or rowing machines or bicycles to get your cardio in? How many are available? Which look as through they may be the most popular?

weights or nautilus equipment, check out those things. Is the area where patrons lift weights somewhere that is inviting to both men and women? If you’re someone who wants to take exercise classes, find out the schedule and types of classes offered. Most places will allow you to take a class or two for free. Current popular classes include Zumba, step aerobics, Jazzercise, yoga, Barre classes and floor exercises. Some gymnasiums have

additional things like racquet ball courts, tennis courts and swimming pools. In those cases, monthly dues may be more, but if that’s the kind of exercise you will do, it’s worth the price. And for some people walking a track is what they want. Check out area gyms to find out the size of track they have and how many rotations equal a mile. Both the Poulsbo Athletic Club and the YMCAs in Silverdale and Bremerton have pools. Poulsbo has a racquet-
ball court, and the YMCA in Silverdale has a quarter-mile indoor track. Some gyms offer classes for kids, access to physical and massage therapy and therapeutic spas. Olympic Fitness Club in Port Orchard is a club that has all of these. Another idea is to check with local parks and recreation department. Many times you can buy a month or six week pass which gives you enough time to decide if that class is the one for you. With any gym you join,
read the contract carefully, if you sign one. Most places will have a one-time joining fee, plus monthly dues. Sometimes the arrangements only allow an auto-deduct from an account or credit card. Be sure you are comfortable with those arrangements. The real key, fitness experts say, is to go somewhere that you’ll be comfortable. If you don’t find a gym that fits you, your fitness program won’t be successful.

Pack some fun and nutrition in your kids lunches By LESLI DULLUM-TUTTERROW Special to Healthy You
O
h, the dreaded brown bag lunch. It takes time to make and kids often leave it on the counter in their haste to catch the bus. Others chuck it, trade it, or leave the remnants in their backpacks until the malodorous smell has wafted through their backpack, into their locker, and back into the house. What can busy parents do to resurrect the brown bag lunch into something kids want to eat? The answer is plenty! Before we get to the actual contents however, let’s consider a few things that can help the whole process go smoother. Before the sandwich hits the lunch bag, talk to your kids about nutrition. Even preschool age kids can understand that healthy food gives them energy so they can run and play. Older kids can be taught that what you put into your body matters- their energy, mood, and brain will all be affected by what they eat. Sharing this with your kids will instill in them the value of healthy eating for life. Choose to model healthy eating. Keep your diet as close to nature and far away from the factory as possible. It rarely works well to live on candy bars and caffeine, but tell your children they should eat healthier. Learn what healthy eating really looks like. Read labels with your child so you can both learn what is beneficial and what foods to avoid. Avoid any food product that has sugar in the first four ingredients. Products with artificial colors or flavors are also to be avoided.
Creativity can help your kids enjoy their sack lunches that you pack for them to take to school. Think protein, good carbs and good fats. Contributed photo Each week consider replacing one standard snack with a less processed, sugary version. Enlist your children’s help at the grocery store to make finding healthy foods an adventure. Young children can help you find the red fruits or the orange vegetables. Consider engaging older kids to find healthy foods you can all prepare together. Show by example, you are willing to try new things. Saying no to the bad stuff and yes to the good sets an example of making beneficial food choices. When your child asks for something high in sugar or very processed, enlist their cooperation in finding a more suitable alternative. That
way you don’t have to keep saying an endless trail of Nooooo’s, rather you can say “let’s look for something similar to that.” This may take a few minutes but will be well worth the effort. Once you and your child have discovered what tastes good and is good for you, you are now ready to get packing. Rather than the traditional “sandwich and chips” mindset, focus on packing a wide array of colors. Your child needs protein, good carbs, good fats, and greens; essentially a variety of nutrients for their growing body. If there is myriad (natural) color in your child’s lunch, then you are probably hitting the mark. Some healthier lunches might include
almond butter with gluten free crackers or bread. Choose blueberries, strawberries, and a banana to round out the rainbow of colors your child needs. If your child enjoys things that crunch, try carrots, celery and peanut butter, or veggie sticks. Late July, Pop chips, Van’s and Annie’s are brands that offer some healthier alternatives for crackers and chips. Fage or Oinko greek yogurt paired with a banana and some trail mix provide protein along with dairy and fruit. Sliced apple with cheese cubes can also be an easy to eat treat. Additionally, fruit such as mandarin oranges or fruit cups packed in light juice — not heavy syrup — are also great. Avoid the puddings, fruits, and gelatins that contain artificial colors and flavors which not only lack real nutrients, but may be harmful in the long and short run. Buy organic where possible to reduce toxic exposure. With a bit of forethought and planning you can save money and provide great nutrition for your kids’ lunch. If you show by example the willingness to try healthier foods and make healthy eating a fun family affair you can send your kids packing in a good way.

Caffeine choices: What’s a safe amount at what age? By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
It’s a cup or two of coffee. A Diet Pepsi. A Red Bull. Or even a Vivarin tablet. Caffeine. Most people need some of it every morning to achieve that “awake” feeling. But what’s a safe amount? According to the American Medical Association, a safe caffeine limit is the amount of caffeine a person can consume without experiencing any negative caffeine overdose symptoms. Medical officials say it’s difficult assign an exact amount for everyone because people can have different sensitivities or reactions to caffeine based on age, medical history, and tolerance. However, there is enough research available to make a recommendation based on an individual’s weight. For healthy adults with no medical issues, it is generally agreed upon that 300mg-400mg of caffeine can be consumed daily without any adverse effects. This is equivalent to about: • 5.2 Shots of espresso • Two 5 Hour Energy Shots • 1 Starbucks Venti brewed coffee •Two and one half 16 fl.oz. Monster Energy Drinks • Five 8 fl.oz. Red Bulls • 11.7 12 fl.oz. Cokes Medical authorities say that a daily safe dose of 400mg is safe for adults and
single doses of 200mg at one time are fine for those engaging in exercise directly after the dose. But with children, it’s another story. Because children’s brains are continuing to develop and their bodies are still growing, limited caffeine is recommended. A recent study from The University Children’s Hospital in Zurich showed the importance of sleep for a child’s developing brain. Caffeine can interfere with sleep, therefore, possibly hindering proper brain development, doctors say. Caffeine isn’t recommended for children under 12 years of age. Occasionally, some doctors may recommend caffeine for children diagnosed with ADHD, but generally there is no reason for children under 12 to consume caffeine. An occasional caffeinated soda or chocolate treat will likely pose no concern for children, and around 45mg per day is recognized as a safe amount. But caffeine shouldn’t be a daily part of a child’s diet. While greatly limiting caffeine to teens would be ideal, because of the
increasing demands placed on teenagers in regards to school, sports, and even work, caffeine consumption is becoming more common with this age group. Developing teens should have no more than 100mg of caffeine daily due to the importance of sleep, brain development, inexperience with caffeine, and possibly unknown medical conditions. This is equivalent to about: • 1.3 shots of espresso • 1.25 8 fl.oz. Red Bulls • .5 of a 5 Hour Energy Shot •.6 of a 16 fl.oz. can of Monster Energy Drink • .2 of a Starbucks Venti brewed coffee • 3 12 fl.oz. Cokes For those with health concerns, adults as well as children with either diagnosed or undiagnosed medical conditions caffeine can have adverse health implications, even small amounts. Caffeine is a stimulant and it increases heart rate as well as blood pressure. Therefore, those with heart arrhythmias, murmurs, and hypertension should limit their caffeine intake. Those with pre-existing arrhythmias, murmurs, and hypertension should limit caffeine to no more than 200mg daily and are advised to consult their physician before consuming caffeine. For those individuals with Type 2 Diabetes, the majority of the research shows that caffeine doesn’t increase
the risk of someone developing Type 2 Diabetes, but actually decreases risk. However, those already diagnosed with type 2 diabetes should limit caffeine consumption because it can impair glucose metabolism in diabetics. Those with Type 2 Diabetes should restrict their consumption to around 200mg daily or follow their doctor’s instructions concerning caffeine intake. For those ultra-sensitive to caffeine it is hard to determine an exact caffeine safe limit. Some people can have one cup of coffee (100mg-120mg) in the morning and still fail to get to sleep that evening. This is well after the caffeine’s effects should have worn off as it does for “normal” caffeine consumers. If the ultra-sensitive person chooses to consume caffeine, they should do so in small amounts until they find the amount that works, but doesn’t cause unwanted side-effects. These people should start with 50mg of caffeine daily and then slightly increase or decrease their consumption from there. This (50 mg) is equal to about: • 1.5 12 fl.oz. Cokes. • One 4 fl.oz. brewed coffee (not Starbucks). • One 8 fl.oz. strong black tea.

Clinic brings new concept in health care to Poulsbo It’s called concierge care and it’s gaining popularity in Kitsap County By LESLIE KELLY
lkelly@soundpublishing.com
C
reating a medical home for their patients is what Pacifica Medicine & Wellness is all about. That’s how its founding doctors, Marie Matty and Andrea Chymiy, describe what they’re providing in the Poulsbo community. “We want to be a place that our patients can count on, where they feel they are listened to and are not just a number,” Dr. Chymiy said. “We want to give each of them a medical home, where they are known and where they can come to us with any concern,” Dr. Matty said. After working together since 2003 at The Doctor’s Clinic, Matty and Chymiy opened Pacifica Medicine on Jan.19. “We’d been thinking about doing this for several years,” Matty said. “We were finding that we were so busy at our traditional fee-for-service practice that we were not able to spend the time we wanted with our patients. And we were being told by our patients that we were booked out several months and that they weren’t able to get in to see us.” At Pacifica the doctors are limiting their practice to 600 patients per doctor, compared to 2,500-plus patients per doctor at their previous practice. These lower patient numbers are made possible by monthly fees that patients pay to be part of the practice. Chymiy and Matty have created a hybrid medical practice that accepts patients with or without regular insurance. Patients with high-deductible insurance or no insurance can join Pacifica’s “Direct Primary Care” practice, where they pay a monthly fee, can be seen as often as needed, and are never billed for their visits. The monthly fee is age-based and ranges from $25$75. Patients who join Pacifica’s
From left, doctors Marie Matty and Andrea Chymiy have started their own medical practice with monthly fees. They also have plans for patients with insurance. Leslie Kelly photo

Leslie Kelly photo “Affordable Concierge” practice pay a lower monthly concierge fee ($10-$60) which enables their doctors to spend more time with their patients and be more accessible and available to them. Visits are billed to insurance. The clinic accepts most private health insurance plus Medicare and Medicaid. “The monthly fee takes us out of the volume-driven fee-for-service health
care model,” Matty said. The office has easy appointment scheduling, by phone or online, and patients usually get to talk with a “real human being” when they call, Matty said. The doctors plan to offer telephone or Skype virtual visits in addition to traditional office visits. The clinic will have a dispensary for prescription drugs for those who do not have prescription coverage, and has
worked out agreements with local labs for discounted lab testing. The clinic focuses on wellness, and has a wellness coach and massage therapist on staff. Pacifica shares space with a nutritionist and an acupuncturist. In all, there are eight employees at Pacifica plus two therapy dogs, Westley, a Wheaten terrier, and Lulu, a Goldendoodle, who are available to patients. The office is decorated in shades of blue with aromatherapy and background music that creates a soothing atmosphere for patients when they walk in the door. Chymiy and Matty are familiar with all the specialists and imaging centers in the area, and are able to provide referrals to specialists when needed. “We will have the time to call specialists ahead of time when a patient goes to see them,” Matty said, “and this will save the patient time.” Chymiy graduated from Tulane Medical School in New Orleans, and Matty is a graduate of the University of Washington Medical School in Seattle. The two primary care physicians met each other when they were in their residency training programs at Swedish Medical Center, in Seattle. “We met because we shared a desk when we worked at Swedish,” said Chymiy. They then job-shared for 12 years at The Doctors Clinic in Poulsbo. Their decision to create their own practice came from a desire to control their own destiny. “Being a part of the solution to what’s wrong with health care is something that’s important to us,” Matty said. “We want to have the opportunity to provide excellent health care in a way in which our patients are cared for personally, and our community is well-served.” Pacifica Medicine & Wellness is at 19980 10th Ave. NE, Suite 202, Poulsbo. Call 360-979-0569, or check out www. pacificamedicine.com for more information and to schedule appointments. Matty and Chymiy and their staff will be hosting a community open house on Feb. 10, from 5 – 7:30 p.m.
A new year brings new opportunities for new hearing By PENINSULA HEARING
A new year is well underway and with it an exciting adventure for those of us at Peninsula Hearing. We are now offering a new and different concept in hearing care called the Lyric. Lyric has been around for a few years, however Dr. Megan Nightingale at Peninsula Hearing in Poulsbo is the first hearing professional on the peninsula to offer Lyric. The Lyric concept is one similar to extended wear contact lenses for the eye. Lyric is still the only “extended wear” hearing device available. The concept centers on a very small device (about the size of a pinto bean) that is placed deep in the ear canal within about four millimeters of the ear drum.
Dr. Megan Nightingale Contributed photo
The device stays put in the canal until the battery dies which can be up to four months. The device is then taken out of the ear canal by a trained professional and a new
one is inserted in its place. The device is designed to be worn 24 hours a day, seven days a week. While the thought of a traditional hearing aid
being worn 24/7 is not very pleasant, Lyric, when properly placed in the ear canal can hardly be felt. The mechanics of the Lyric is surrounded by a spongy material that allows moisture to escape and the ear canal to breathe which is very important for ear canal health. The advantage of having a hearing device placed so close to the ear drum is that the sound is very natural because not as much amplification is needed as with a traditional device. Also, by virtue of the placement of Lyric the brain can take advantage of the ear’s natural background noise fighting capabilities. Lyric is very convenient for the user as well. One does not have to change batteries or take the device on and off the ear. The device can be adjusted for volume and turned into what is called “sleep
mode” for nighttime use by using a magnetic tool. Lyric is sold on a subscription basis for one, two or three years at a time. The makers of Lyric and Dr. Nightingale do understand that Lyric is clearly not for everyone. There are some people who cannot have anything in their ear canal and some whose hearing issues are so great that it is beyond the amplification ability of the Lyric. “For the people who have tried Lyric and liked it however, it is a miracle — they rave about it,” said Dr. Nightingale. If you are interested in learning more, call 360-697-3061 or 800-540-8698 for a complimentary evaluation and demonstration of the Lyric.
