He was arrested after a nearly 3-hour standoff with police when a Kitsap County SWAT team entered his apartment through a window. The women received serious injuries in the attack, and one was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with head injuries. Bainbridge Island Police Chief Matthew Hamner praised the professionalism and quick work of the officers in his department for arresting the man accused of the random attacks. “This individual posed a significant threat to the safety of the island,” Hamner said. “He — unprovoked — attacked two older woman for no apparent reason and caused significant, substantial physical injury,” Hamner said. “The only reason he gave was because he was angry.” TURN TO ATTACK | A11
Fire board OKs election calling for $15 million bond measure, levy increase BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
Commissioners with the Bainbridge Island Fire Department unanimously decided late last week to put a $16 million bond measure to pay for new and improved fire hall facilities before voters in the February election. Voters will also decide the fate of a 9-cent levy increase that would pay for an additional three firefighters to
staff the department’s north end station on Phelps Road. The three new hires, if voters approve the funding, would join the three firefighters that the board approved hiring earlier last week. The six new firefighters would help Station 23 be staffed 24/7, with help from existing firefighters who would be paid overtime. The decisions to put the two measures before voters at a special election
early next year once again unveiled the chasm between the newest members of the fire board and Chairman Scott Isenman, the senior member of the commission who supported administration’s request for a higher tax levy and a $17.1 million bond request for new fire facilities. Isenman found no support from his fellow commissioners after he pushed for a tax levy that would pay for six
more firefighters for Station 23 — which would bring the total staffing up to nine — and the bond package proposed by Fire Chief Hank Teran. Isenman asked commissioners to approve a 14-cent levy, and noted that the fire department could lower its actual levy after the first year it went into effect, which would have preserved the ability of the department to “bank” the untapped
levy capacity or build up its reserve funding for use at a later date. Fellow commissioners were skeptical. “If we collect it, we’re going to spend it, that’s just what happens,” said Commissioner Dan Morrow. Others suggested that adding nine full-time firefighters to Station 23, instead of hiring six and relying on overtime to fill vacant shifts, would be “overstaffing” the
fire hall on Phelps Road. Isenman and the fire chief strongly disagreed, but Commissioner Teri Dettmer said officials needed to keep in mind the ability of all island taxpayers to handle the tax increases. “It’s easy for us to say, you know it’s only 5 cents, it’s only $1,000.” “It’s small potatoes,” Dettmer said.

Around the Island WSF
BI ferry again in the spotlight Filmmakers doing a commercial for Array Health recently caught the ferry to Bainbridge Island to film passengers for a web-based advertising project put together by Edelman, a Seattlebased public relations company. Filming took place aboard the Bainbridge ferry during two round trips on Wednesday, Dec. 3, said Jadwiga Kellock, operations programs manager for Washington State Ferries. Edelman did man-onthe-street style question-and-answer shoots with passengers about
health insurance and their knowledge of private exchanges. The Bainbridge ferry run received national attention over the past year for a Geico commercial that was shot aboard the Bainbridge-Seattle ferry last August. During that all-day shoot, conducted on the Texas deck of the MV Wenatchee, a film crew of 30 people from Traktor Inc. and Geico Insurance shot a commercial featuring the Geico gecko playing the part of a standup comedian with the Seattle skyline in the background. His jokes — “Here’s a good one, Seattle. What did GEICO say to the mariner? We could save you a boatload. What’s Seattle’s favorite noise? The Puget Sound.” — were each met

Storm cuts power on island More than 1,230 Puget Sound Energy customers on the south end of Bainbridge Island lost power during the windstorm-caused outage the night of Thursday, Dec. 11. Other scattered but smaller outages were also reported across the island Thursday night near Battle Point, Manitou Beach, Fletcher Bay and Day Road. Homes and businesses across Bainbridge — and Puget Sound — were left in the dark after a powerful windstorm hit Western Washington ate last week. PSE crews were still hustling last Friday to restore power. PSE spokesman Ray Lane said crews were dealing with more than 730 different outages locations across the power company’s service area. The hardest hit areas included Kingston/ Hansville. The peak of the outages hit at approximately 1 a.m. Friday, Lane reported, and almost 105,000 customers lost electricity.
Thieves grab safe in break-in Bainbridge police are investigating a break-in at a Hildebrand Lane business where thieves made off with a large safe sometime overnight Thursday, Dec. 11. The offices of The Property Management
Group in the 911 Hildebrand Building were burglarized sometime between 8 p.m. Thursday and 8 a.m. Friday, said Bainbridge Police Officer Ben Sias. The case is under investigation and details were sparse. Sias said a large safe, which would have taken two people to move, was stolen. Fingerprints were found on a window, but Sias said police were still determining how the burglars got into the building, which is also home to Bainbridge Island Ambulance, a Kitsap Physical Therapy office and the Bainbridge Review. Other businesses in the building were not burglarized. Sias said police would review video camera footage from banks that are adjacent to the building. COBI
Center to get solar panels Work has started on the installation of a solar panel system at the Waterfront Park Community Center. City officials said the system will include 16 solar energy panels with the ability to produce up to 5,070 kilowatt hours of energy per year, the equivalent of burning 3,755 pounds of coal. The installation project is expected to continue through the end of the year, and the city said residents may notice work continuing from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. The project is partially funded through Puget Sound Energy’s Green Power Program grant. The city was awarded a $20,000 grant for its participation in PSE’S Take Charge Green Power Challenge in 2013.

In Our Opinion
Questions that should be asked The Bainbridge Island City Council is looking to fill one of its now-empty chairs on the dais, and the city has started to accept applications for island residents who are interested in serving. Candidates must submit a letter of interest — as well as answer a series of seven questions that will help the council decide the best pick to fill the vacancy left by the recent resignation of David Ward. The questions pose no surprises, and seem to be the standard fare that candidates have faced in the past. The queries ask candidates about their strengths, their priorities, the accomplishments they hope to make and their visions for the city. Each applicant for the council seat will be asked to answer the same set of questions. And to be sure, there are no hardball questions in the bunch, which is a shame. Often during such appointment processes, answers from the candidates tend to follow largely familiar lines and the candidates themselves sound much alike. Everyone, of course, will no doubt say the big issues facing the island are potential growth and development, traffic, livability, and maintaining and preserving the character of the community. If given a chance, we would pose a different set of questions, some suggested by recent events at city hall, some not. Possibilities include: Will you pledge to follow the city’s Governance Manual, including the values that are set out in the guide that stress listening to the community, collaborating as a team and seeking consensus, and not interfering with the city manager’s management of city employees? Will you abide by the state’s Open Records Act, and Open Public Meetings Act? Will you follow the city’s policy on the use of email for city business? Will you expect accountability from fellow council members who don’t? Will you seek to share credit during times of success? And will you admit to own your mistakes, and accept responsibility when you’ve done something wrong? Will you listen to the public when their opinions differ from your own? Will you show respect? Will you make decisions based on what’s best for the entire island? Will you come to council meetings prepared and ready to thoughtfully discuss the issues at hand? Will you speak out when you hold a minority opinion? Can you disagree without being disagreeable? Did you answer “yes” to these questions? Where have you been? Applications will be accepted through Dec. 30 at city hall.

Council needs to come clean on settlement To the editor: Well, I never thought the Bainbridge City Council would change who I am but it has finally managed to turn me into an outraged taxpayer. The council has taken about $750,000 of our local taxes to defend in court an indefensible, self-indulgent, and arrogant position taken by three council members, one of whom at least has had the grace to resign. What principle, what debate, and what members of the council resulted in the absurd decision to instruct the city’s legal team to defend those council members who wanted to keep their electronic discussions of our city’s business out of the light of day? Why didn’t the council simply vote at the outset to admit the error to the plaintiffs or in court and move on? Who decided to divert $750,000 of our tax money to those legal costs and penalties rather than spend them as intended on our public safety and emergency services, on our roads, on our parks, on code compliance, on enacting zoning ordinances to protect us from ill-designed developments? What city council member in recent memory has provided concrete value to the city anywhere close to that wasted $750,000? I would start gathering signatures for a recall election of the entire council if that wouldn’t result in
diverting and wasting even more public money. The next election cannot come too soon to demand answers to these questions of the current council incumbents. Oh, and hopefully in the light of day. TOM LONNER Bainbridge Island
Save a life, adopt a dog or cat this holiday season To the editor: It’s unfortunate that in this country most cats and dogs that enter an animal shelter never make it out. Despite the efforts of humane societies and rescue groups to help reduce the animal overpopulation, 3.5 million companion animals are being euthanized annually. How can this be in a developed country like ours? It is unacceptable. Sadly, this is partly due to the misconception that shelter animals must somehow be flawed. Nothing can be further from the truth. Granted some shelter animals have behavior problems, but not more than dogs bought from a breeder or puppy mills. There are no guarantees. Every animal must be “worked with” in terms of behavior training including loving care. With loving care, most shelter animals will thrive and become cherished members of the family. If you are one of those that want the “perfect” dog from a breeder rather than a dog from a shelter consider this: By adopting a rescue dog you will save one dog from euthanasia. You will give it a better life than it had before. You will get a dog

Don’t support breeders and puppy mills who contribute to the staggering numbers of homeless dogs and cats and foster inbreeding and chronic health problems. Many breeders and puppy mill owners are only “in it for the money” and treat their animals badly. Show some goodwill this holiday season and adopt an animal from your local animal shelter or rescue operation. MONIQUE SUMMERS Bainbridge Island

Our city council’s role in the lawsuit To the editor: Recently Kim Hendrickson published an e-mail titled “Althea and Bob’s Win, Our Loss” in Gary Tripp’s Bainbridge News Wire. The piece is both an attack on Bob and Althea and a defense of Councilman Steve Bonkowski and Councilman David Ward. Keep in mind that both Bonkowski and Ward violated the city’s Governance Manual and refused to turn over public records from their personal e-mail accounts. Kitsap County Superior Court Judge Jeanette Dalton specifically stated: “The hesitation of council members Ward and Bonkowski to turn over public records is of grave concern to the citizens of Bainbridge Island.” Two different courts found that they intentionally and wrongfully deleted public records and concluded that their conduct constituted serious violations of the law. Ward’s behavior was especially offensive in that he admitted to giving false testimony under oath on two occasions and disposed of
crucial evidence, specifically his computer. In a sense Hendrickson is correct in that the citizens of Bainbridge did in fact lose. We elected individuals who stated and implied that they were honest men of integrity who would conduct the city’s business, our business, in an open and transparent manner. Since being elected they have fallen far short of their campaign promises. Unfortunately the damage and losses incurred by the city were in fact avoidable. If one is to point an accusatory finger at those responsible for this damage and loss it is not just Ward and Bonkowski but our city council. Remember, Althea and Bob approached the city about a settlement less than a month after the suit was filed and offered to drop the lawsuit with no attorney’s fees or sanctions if Ward and Bonkowski would produce the requested e-mails. They refused. All the costs and fees that resulted are a result of their refusal to obey the law. This decision was supported by our city council and one can only wonder whether the council was delusional or made this decision based on bad legal advice or both. The settlement cost of
approximately $500,000 is the large tip of a financial iceberg. Our city council’s reckless behavior has cost us hundreds of thousands of dollars beginning with the termination of City Manager Brenda Bauer and the resulting expense to search for her replacement. Now we have the Bonkowski and Ward debacle and the yet to be disclosed costs of the multiple attorneys hired to represent the city, Bonkowski and Ward in the lawsuit. These three items alone will probably cost us well over a million dollars! So in a sense Hendrickson is correct in that we are losers but not because of Bob and Althea but rather the illegal actions of Bonkowski and Ward and the poor decisions of our city council. Hopefully in spite of the continued presence of Bonkowski on the city council we will learn the real costs and the reasons for the decision to fight the lawsuit. We deserve truthful answers. The question remains is the council up to being truthful? BOB SEABY Bainbridge Island
Friday, December 19, 2014 - Bainbridge Island Review
These ships are unable to unload their cargo due to a slowdown initiated by dock workers at the Ports of Seattle and Tacoma. The workers’ union ILWU has been unsuccessful in negotiating a six year contract with management, which expired on July 1. The port slowdown, which began in October is having a devastating effect on our state economy where 40 percent of jobs are linked to trade. Hay and apples from Northwest farms are sitting at the docks unable to be shipped, truck drivers who transport goods back and forth from the docks are getting fewer hauls, and the import economy is dealing with huge delays of merchandise. Unfortunately government officials are unable or unwilling to intervene. Residents with water views along the southeastern shore of Bainbridge Island are constantly reminded of this slowdown as these container ships sit idle for weeks on end swinging back and forth with the tide, generating noise and lighting up the night sky. DARDEN BURNS Bainbridge Island
Idle ships don’t add to the scenery County needs another BI bridge To the editor: I am disappointed that the Review has not written an article about the container ships anchored off the south end of Bainbridge Island.
To the editor: I would like to address a bridge from Brownsville to Bainbridge Island for just us county folks.
The bridge would eliminate problems or concerns about only one exit off the island. In case of fire or disaster, having only one exit doesn’t currently meet fire and safety code for any building and this concerns the safety of thousands of folks. The bridge would solve problems with traffic on and off the Agate Pass Bridge. The bridge would provide a much better, shorter and timely avenue to the central and south end of the county. The distance from Silverdale to Manette is about the same distance as Silverdale to the Winslow ferry via a bridge from Brownsville. We could save millions in auto and truck fuel costs, and reduce pollution as well. This would eliminate the need for a fast ferry and probably reduce ferry needs to the Bremerton dock. The fuel savings alone would compensate for the bridge costs. Additionally, the repairs and maintenance to the ferry system would be greatly reduced. I have discussed this with many Bainbridge Island people as well as Bremerton and Central Kitsap residents. I have received almost a unanimous favorable response. I urge everyone to talk to your political representatives. There may even be Homeland Security money waiting for our application. We need to do this before too much land is covered by buildings and blocking the avenues to and from main roads on Bainbridge and the county. JERRY VANFOSSEN Bremerton

Turkey Trot helps islanders in distress To the editor: Were you one of the 1,100 neighbors who were part of the 2014 Turkey Trot? If you were, your efforts contributed to a $24,000 donation that Ann Browning and Jenny Campbell, the two organizers extraordinaire of the event, presented to us this week. Their excellent leadership along with great sponsors, great volunteers and generous participants support Helpline’s mission to provide critical social services and food to island households in distress. This event truly demonstrates that actions are louder than words. JOANNE TEWS Executive Director Helpline House
Many thanks to BHS volunteers To the editor: I just returned to Bainbridge Island from overseas and, thanks to BNB, I acquired a queen mattress for my guest room. The problem, for a single person, is how to get it home and upstairs. With newly installed wood floors, dragging was not an option, even if it was feasible. While there are times when both our schools and our youngsters are disparaged in public comment there is much to be proud of and thankful for in both. In this case, public thanks go to Aidan Carlisle, Sam Wysong, Cole Shard, Casey Bring at Bainbridge High School. At the behest of Andy Grimm and Flo Fergeson, they came right after school, carried the mattress from the basement garage and up a narrow winding staircase, without dragging or scraping. Now my granddaughters have a place to sleep when they come to visit. They were four fine gracious and strong young men. This community and their parents have raised them well and BHS provided a community service to a former colleague. Thanks very much, Bainbridge. It is a good place to be.

Bainbridge blotter Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter: Sunday, Dec. 14 1:15 p.m. A 75-year-old Bainbridge man was struck from behind when he went to turn right off Hildebrand Lane toward Highway 305 but then stopped for another driver who had the right of way. A 57-yearold woman in a 2001 Subaru drove into the man’s van when he suddenly braked for the other driver. The Subaru hit a wheelchair lift on the back of the van, but police said the van only had minor paint damage and the lift was still operable. The Subaru had bumper, hood and other damage. 7:13 p.m. Police talked to a woman outside the police station who used the call box. The 42-year-old Bainbridge woman said she had just returned from a Seahawks game on the ferry with her 48-year-old husband, but they began arguing when they were getting off the ferry and her husband started getting obnoxious toward others waiting to board the ferry. She said they both had been drinking but they started arguing again about paying the babysitter when they got home and the babysitter seeing the husband in his inebriated state. The woman said her husband punched her four times in the chest, and when she parked their car in the parking lot at the police station, he got out and walked away. Police later learned he caught a taxi at the ferry terminal and went home. An officer went to the couple’s home and the husband was arrested for domestic violence assault. He was booked into jail on $10,000 bail. Saturday, Dec. 13 5:40 p.m. A 62-year-old man on Ward Avenue reported a “bizarre” incident. He said he found his GPS device under his driver’s side rear tire with a mysterious note. The man said the device probably fell out when he was getting out of his vehicle. The typewritten note said “Killer, don’t buy things that you don’t need. Use more than once. Proof.” 9:52 p.m. A caller reported hearing a large crash near Ferncliff Avenue and Wing Point Way. Police found a 25-year-old man on the side of the road changing a tire, and the vehicle appeared to have front bumper damage from going off the road. The man became very distraught and started crying while talking to an officer, and said he had gone out with a friend earlier for a pitcher of beer. The man was given roadside sobriety tests and had a reading of .152 on a

breath test. He was arrested and taken to Kitsap County Jail. Friday, Dec. 12 10:08 a.m. A 27-year-old Suquamish man caused a threecar accident after he hit another vehicle — and that vehicle hit the vehicle in front of it — when the first driver failed to stop at the stoplight on Highway 305 at Day Road. The Suquamish man said he was driving south and adjusting his radio and didn’t see the traffic ahead. He rear-ended a 1994 Toyota pickup driven by a 19-year-old Seattle man, and the Toyota then struck a 2000 Toyota Tundra that was driven by a 53-year-old Silverdale man. The Suquamish driver was cited for inattentive driving. 12:35 p.m. A 30-year-old man said his Dodge Sprinter van was dented by a hit-and-run driver. The man said his van had been parked on Woodbank Drive NE when a car leaving a private driveway near the road’s intersection with Fletcher Bay Road NE backed into his vehicle, then drove away. A witness described the other vehicle as an older model, dark blue minivan. Thursday, Dec. 11 9:54 a.m. A business owner called police to report the theft of nine checks. He said he had gotten a call from Money Tree in Bremerton asking him to confirm a check that a woman wanted to cash for $1,267.53. The woman was described as heavy set, with bleached blonde hair. The man then discovered checks had been stolen from the business. The Money Tree employee said the woman was a frequent customer, but had brought in bad checks more than once. Police later identified the woman as being wanted on an outstanding warrant. Wednesday, Dec. 10 4:41 a.m. A Bremerton man tried to turn his bus around in the 8400 block of New Brooklyn Road because of a fallen tree and got stuck in the ditch next to a driveway. A tow truck pulled the bus out, which was empty at the time. There was no damage. Thursday, Dec. 4 5:08 p.m. A 93-year-old woman in a 1999 Mercury Sable was heading west on High School Road when she knocked over a street sign that was in the median, then hit a small tree and snapped the trunk before hitting another sign. The woman told an officer she was unsure how she reached the landscaped median, and said she usually only drives during the daylight hours. An officer noted that because she had driven over three solid objects and a distance of 20 yards before stopping, combined
with her inability to explain what caused her to drive over the median, she would be referred for a driving re-examination. Wednesday, Dec. 3 9:44 a.m. A man left his truck parked at the Bethany Lutheran park-and-ride at 5 a.m. Dec. 2 and found the left rear tail light assembly was missing on the 2012 Toyota Tacoma when he returned. Replacement parts will cost $230. 2:34 p.m. A 37-year-old Bremerton man was questioned by Bainbridge police after an employee at the Ace Hardware store said he left the store without paying for a chop saw. He was stopped after the left the store by a store employee and detained until police arrived. When an officer talked to the man, he said he wanted to file a complaint for false arrest. He said he had gone into the store to buy a saw for “Rick,” his employer. He said he had picked up some empty boxes while in the store, along with the chop saw, but forgot he had the saw when he walked out with the empty boxes. A store employee said the man was observed putting empty boxes into a cart, and then putting the saw under the boxes before leaving. An officer told the man the store had a right to detain him. When asked how he was planning to pay for the saw, the man had trouble answering. He then said he had planned to get a cashier’s check from Rick, who was waiting for him outside the store in a truck. He also said he had the saw but had gone outside to get the check. When an officer told the man he had changed his story, the man became upset and said Rick had driven away when he saw him get arrested and left him at the store. Police discovered the man was wanted on outstanding warrants for shoplifting and driving with a suspended license. He was arrested and booked into jail on the warrants. When asked about the warrants, he said he had been pressured into shoplifting something for his child’s birthday. Police also found a black Subaru with the keys inside and a cell phone that was charging on the seat. When an officer called a number the suspected shoplifter had given him, the phone in the car began to ring. Police believe the man made up the story about Rick and the truck. Tuesday, Dec. 2 8:55 a.m. A Bainbridge woman called 911 after she found a pile of mail in the bushes while walking near the corner of Wing Point Way and Alder Avenue NE. Police determined the mail came from five homes on Cherry Avenue. A silver ring was found missing from one package that had been opened, but another package containing medication had not been opened. A total of 28 pieces of mail were found.

LEVY CONTINUED FROM A1
“You have to remember, there are residents on the island who are struggling,” she said. Fire officials keep saying this is a wealthy island, Dettmer added, “but not everybody is.” Next year’s levy rate is 86 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Fire officials had suggested a 14-cent increase from 86 cents to $1 (per $1,000 of assessed valuation). On a 4-1 vote, commissioners approved a 9-cent increase for the ballot measure, which would put the levy rate in 2016 at 95 cents (per $1,000 of assessed valuation). The difference between the two levies will save the owner of a $500,000 property approximately $25 in taxes for the general fire levy in 2016.
If voters approve the 95-cent levy, the owner of a $500,000 home will pay $675 in 2016 for the general fire levy. [The current levy for a $500,000 property is $660, which will drop to $630 next year.] When discussion then turned to a bond measure that would replace Station 21 and Station 22, and refurbish Station 23, commissioners again sought to cut down the size of the request from its proposed size of $17.1 million. Some on the board recalled that the department’s facilities consultant figured that the size of the improvement project could be cut by 10 percent, and Morrow suggested setting the bond at $16 million, with the goal of realizing more cost savings in the months ahead. Along those lines, some board members said they didn’t think Station 23 should be renovated. Isenman, however, recalled
that when their consultant walked them through the fire hall designs, the stations had not been overbuilt. “I don’t think there was a lot of fluff in there,” he said. Cutting the proposed bond measure by any amount was arbitrary, Isenman said. “You’re pulling a number out of the air. You’re shopping a number around,” he told his fellow commissioners. After Isenman failed to find support for the $17.1 million bond measure for the February ballot, commissioners then voted 5-0 to reduce the size to $16 million. If approved by voters, the bond measure will add roughly $80 in taxes annually to the tax bill of the owner of a $500,000 home. The $17.1 million measure would have cost the owner of a $500,000 home approximately $85 in new taxes each year.

Alleged attacker was facing court date over unpaid judgment in prior felony case BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
The Bainbridge Island man accused of assaulting two women before barricading himself in his second-story apartment on Wallace Way was being sued over unpaid court bills and was facing a January hearing on the lawsuit at the time of his arrest. Police arrested Adrian Allan Charvet, 25, after a nearly threehour standoff Monday night on Wallace Way. A Bainbridge police officer discovered Charvet yelling from a second story window as police were responding to a report of two women who had been assaulted outside The Doctors Clinic a few blocks away on Hildebrand Lane. Charvet barricaded himself
ATTACK CONTINUED FROM A1
“Within minutes of this assault, these officers went into immediate action and cornered this individual and brought him into custody,” he added. Charvet was charged in Kitsap County District Court with second-degree assault, a felony, during a court hearing Tuesday afternoon. He remains in custody in Kitsap County Jail. Bail has been set at $30,000. Police were called to the clinic on Hildebrand Lane after a woman said she was hit in the face by a man in his 20s on Monday, Dec. 15. The victim, 62, said she had heard a woman’s scream and turned around to see the man, later identified as Charvet, coming toward her. When the woman acknowledged the stranger, he punched her in the face. According to court documents, she received a serious injury to her left eye that left her with a lacerated cornea. She was helped into the clinic after the attack but was taken by medics from the Bainbridge Island Fire Department to their station on Madison Avenue, then flown to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for treatment. The first woman who allegedly encountered Charvet said she noticed a man following her as she walked home to her apartment, but when she turned to ask if he needed help, he “doubled up his fist” to punch her. The woman, 71, turned her face to avoid getting hit and was punched in the back of the neck. She then
inside his apartment, and police tried to negotiate his surrender for more than two hours before he was finally arrested as a Kitsap County SWAT team began to enter his home. He was jailed on charges of second-degree assault, fourth-degree assault and malicious mischief and booked into Kitsap County Jail just after 11:30 p.m. Monday. Court records indicate Charvet was facing a lawsuit brought by Dynamic Collectors, Inc. over an unpaid judgment from a 2012 felony case where Charvet had pled guilty to first-degree criminal trespassing after being found in a stranger’s home on Bainbridge Island. A hearing had been set for Jan. 30 in Kitsap County Superior Court. Charvet had been served with the lawsuit on Monday,
screamed. Charvet then allegedly attacked the second victim outside The Doctors Clinic moments later. A witness told police he saw a man running south on Hildebrand Lane, and described the man as having frizzy blonde hair and dressed in a gray sweatshirt and jeans. An officer on the way to the assault call passed by Charvet’s apartment building on Wallace Way less than a block away from where the attacks occurred and heard Charvet screaming out a window of his apartment. When Charvet saw the officer, he quickly closed the window and blinds, according to court papers, but continued to scream and yell. A crisis intervention officer and negotiator was brought to the scene and tried to talk to Charvet for several hours without success. Charvet would not answer the phone and would not talk with anyone, including his mother, according to a certificate of probable cause.
Nov. 24, according to court records. Charvet has a record of run-ins with the police, and was arrested on Bainbridge Island on Aug. 14 for second-degree identity theft and second-degree possession of stolen property. Charvet had a credit card that was stolen from a home on Madison Avenue, police said, and authorities claimed he used the credit card for a $2 purchase at the Subway sandwich shop on Bainbridge and also unsuccessfully tried to use the stolen credit card at two other Bainbridge businesses. Charvet also pled guilty to first-degree criminal trespassing in November 2012. In that case, a woman called police after she found Charvet in her home on Holly Farm Lane NE on Sept. 12, 2012.
Police said they continued to hear moaning sounds from inside the department. Meanwhile, a Bainbridge officer made up a photo montage that included Charvet’s photo, and the first victim immediately picked Charvet as the assailant. Officers obtained a search warrant for the man’s apartment. A SWAT team broke a window to Charvet’s apartment and went inside, and Charvet gave up. Police seized a gray sweatshirt from inside the apartment as evidence and arrested Charvet just before 6 p.m. Monday. Police said Charvet had injuries to his hand and a bandage on one finger. When asked about the injuries, Charvet allegedly said they occurred “yesterday,” which police said coincided with a series of car prowls and malicious mischief events that happened Sunday, Dec. 14 where blood was found in one of the vehicles that had been prowled. Police also said they found items from the car prowls
The woman called police just before noon after hearing the sound of coins and drawers opening and closing. She then found Charvet inside her home, and when asked what he was doing there, he said he was looking for his cousin. The intruder then was seen running off the property while carrying a white trash bag filled with items. Police found Charvet nearby covered in sweat, dirt and leaves. He was taken back to the home where the resident identified him as the person who had been inside her house. Charvet was involuntarily hospitalized at the Kitsap Evaluation and Treatment Center for two weeks after his arrest, then received a mental health evaluation at
inside Charvet’s apartment. Charvet allegedly admitted assaulting the two women after he was taken into custody, and said he was responsible for the car prowling incidents from the day before. He also said he had stolen alcohol from Safeway. When asked about the assaults, Charvet said he was angry and “said he wanted to take it out on someone.” According to court documents, Charvet has mental health issues and problems with alcohol. Second-degree assault carries a maximum 10-year prison sentence and $20,000 fine upon conviction. Hamner praised his officers for their hard work and dedication to community safety, and said the arrest happened “in the right way.” He noted the call for a crisis intervention officer and negotiator and the attempt to get Charvet to resolve the standoff peacefully. “We did it in the best manner in bringing him into custody. The end result was
Western State Hospital before it was determined he was fit to stand trial on a charge of residential burglary. He pled guilty to first-degree trespassing, a felony, in the case Nov. 21, 2012. He was sentenced to 364 days in jail, with all but 70 days suspended, and was given a $5,000 fine, which was also suspended. Charvet was also ordered to pay court-appointed attorney fees of $1,135 and $800 in other court costs. The recent lawsuit was filed after Charvet did not pay the court judgment. Court records also indicate Charvet was convicted of fourth-degree assault, a gross misdemeanor, as well as a misdemeanor drug charge in May 2011.
a broken window. It could have been much worse,” Hamner said. “I’m just very proud,” he said. Charvet has had prior run-ins with the law. He was arrested on Bainbridge in August for second-degree identity theft and second-degree possession of stolen property. Police said at the time that Charvet had a credit card that was stolen from a home in the 900 block of Madison Avenue, along with $170 in cash. Charvet allegedly used the credit card for a $2 purchase at Subway and also tried to use the stolen credit card at a Cashtronic banking site and at the Rite Aid store on High School Road, but was unsuccessful. The next court appearance for Charvet has been set for Dec. 30.

This ‘Victory’ ain’t so sweet

Concept art from initial storyboards of Scott Blake’s proposed next film project “Victory.”
BHS grad seeks to show a bleak future in his second short film BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Scott Blake has come a long way as a filmmaker since his first short, “The Surveyor,” garnered praise from audiences and critics. He’s come a couple hundred years, actually. While his first film made viewers reconsider what they thought they knew about the past through a bleak and realistic look at the old West, the subject of his intended next project is the future. Head’s up, it’s also not very pretty. “Victory” tells the story of an urban insurgency in the America of the very near future as a group of citizens fight their way through a “chain-reaction holocaust,” according to the official film description. Just what exactly does that mean? Blake’s been pretty tight-lipped about the specifics of what will hopefully be his next short film, saying only that it’s going to be the biggest and most elaborate production of his career so far. “It’s a real kind of action/thriller if you will, but hopefully one that’s sort of about things that could come,” Blake said. “It’s a near future look at what happens when a city becomes violent.”
With a script, crew and most of the cast in place, Blake said, his main goal now is to raise the necessary funds to shoot the film. For that purpose, he has chosen to seek donations through the popular fundraising service kickstarter.com. The project had 21 backers as of earlier in this week and, with a little over two weeks left in the campaign, had received nearly $7,000 in donations. Blake’s goal, the amount he and his crew say they need to see the film through, is $35,000. The amount, Blake admits, is “pretty pricey for a short film,” but is what he believes to be “the lowest amount possible” to do the story justice. Shooting locations, Blake explained, will be much trickier in this film than in his last which was set primarily in the desert. “Victory,” instead, is entirely urban-based and set to involve downtown Seattle streets and skyscrapers, which of course incurs all kinds of unforeseen expenses ranging from required security by city police to additional insurance. Making a short film, Blake explained, is truly a labor of love for both he and the rest of the cast and crew. Unlike marketing a feature film — even an independently made one

What’s happening
Throughout the month of January, Bainbridge Bakers Gallery will exhibit “Images of Color and Composition” by Robert Alescio. In this presentation, Alescio displays his unique vision of the world seen through the camera lens. Featured are photographs from locations ranging from Bainbridge Island to Europe. The images display a kaleidoscope of colors and a dynamic range of light. About his work, Alescio said, “A great joy for me is to seek out a photogenic environment and abandon myself to it, to capture its essence – and then expound upon it. Whether a work of man or nature’s own creation, I hope to discover the hidden beauty within.” A special meet-the-artist reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 2.

IslandWood to host 26th annual Mochi Tsuki event A treasured Bainbridge Island tradition returns anew BY REVIEW STAFF
The 26th annual Bainbridge Island Mochi Tsuki event has been slated for Sunday, Jan. 4 at IslandWood. For over a millennium, making and eating the sweet rice treat mochi (moe-chee) has been a celebrated New Year’s tradition in Japan, with generations of families and communities coming together to wish good health and prosperity for the new year. One of the nation’s longest-running public mochi tsuki (moe-cheezu-key) events, the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Community (BIJAC) will again welcome guests and visitors to the annual community celebration from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 4 at IslandWood (4450 Blakely Ave. NE), where staff and volunteers will offer tours of the award-winning “School in the Woods.”
The event is free, though donations for mochi are welcome. Parking is limited at the site and nearby Blakely Elementary School and carpooling is strongly encouraged.

Using large wooden mallets, two people rhythmically pound the rice in the usu, while with bare hands a third person swiftly moves the rice between each mallet crash. After several minutes of vigorous pounding, the rice becomes
a thick, smooth dough — mochi. From manual pounding in the usu or special mochi-making appliances, the mochi is removed and children of all ages hand form the steaming-hot mochi into small handball-sized cakes, filling some of them with a sweet bean paste
called ahn. While mochi is arguably best eaten hot and fresh, many enjoy roasting it in the oven, then dipping the puffy and crisp hot mochi cakes into a combination of sugar and soy sauce. For future enjoyment, mochi can be frozen in airtight bags.

Design contract for Fletcher Landing Road end gets council’s nod BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
The city of Bainbridge Island has hired a California company to help design the long-awaited road-end improvement project on Fletcher Landing Road. The city council agreed on a 6-0 vote to hire AECOM Technical Services, Inc. of Long Beach, California to help design the roadend project. The contract is for $43,233, and the agreement will lead to a finished design that the city can use to seek bids for the project. The project includes the removal
of a concrete sea wall that is falling apart, plus stormwater improvements, trails, a viewing bench, beach repairs and native landscaping. The city council previously approved the scope of the project in October. At last week’s council meeting, Deputy City Manager Morgan Smith said the particulars of the site — at the 40-foot-wide end of Fletcher Bay Road — would likely mean a project design that doesn’t exactly match what’s already on paper.
“It’s a complex project, there is a lot to it in terms of the location at the waterfront and the new [Shoreline Master Program] requirements,” Smith said. “It’s not particularly straightforward. But we are hopeful that we will get where we want to be,” she said. The city hopes to have a finished design in hand by April so construction can happen in August. “We are aiming to begin construction during next year’s fish window,” Smith said. “Which is somewhat aggressive timeline at this point
given the permitting requirements that we expect to face.” Smith said the agreement was put before the council in December, rather than January, so four weeks that could be devoted to the permitting process would not be lost. Smith cautioned council members to not look at the conceptual drawings and expect the finished project to be completely in sync with those plans. It’s a complicated site and the permitting requirements are “quite dense,” she said. “I want to just underscore that
those are conceptual designs at this point. And we are now going to go out in the real world and see exactly what can and should emerge,” Smith said. The road to Fletcher Landing was established in 1899, and the spot boasts sunset views of the Kitsap Peninsula and the Olympics. Disputes over public access erupted in the late 1990s after property owners put up a locked gate, and the area was reclaimed for the public after a nearly decade-long legal battle between the city and road end residents.

BHS suffers loss in home opener BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
There are select few public places on Bainbridge where the law allows dogs to be unleashed. It is a list which, apparently, includes Paski Gymnasium. It was there late last week that the Spartans found themselves unable to control the Bulldogs, who proceeded to run amok both on the court and the scoreboard. The boys varsity basketball team’s season record fell to 1-2 after coming up short in a 76-61 contest at home against the visiting team from Garfield High Friday. It was the team’s first game at home this season. Garfield scored first and led throughout the first quarter, setting a tone that would continue through much of the game as the Bainbridge squad struggled to find their groove. Entering the second quarter down 25-10, BHS managed to keep pace with the Bulldogs throughout the quarter, which saw equal
scoring efforts by both teams. The game entered its second half with Garfield ahead 40-25. Bainbridge made some gains in the third, but it just wasn’t enough. In fact, it wasn’t until the final quarter that BHS managed to outscore their opponents (2413). By then, however, it was too little, too late. The second and fourth quarter were obviously the best for BHS, Spartan Head Coach Scott Orness explained after the game. “We did a lot of really good things in the second and the fourth,” he said. “Our first and our third, I felt our defense was really lousy,” he added. Offensively, BHS did see some significant contributions from several individuals. BHS sophomore Lyle Terry was the Spartans’ offensive superstar, scoring 24 points throughout the game. Oskar Dieterich managed
12 points, Trent Schulte chipped in seven and both Ben Beatie and Sawyer Conrad finished the game with four points each. The Spartans entered the contest minus a few key players due to an illness which had been making the rounds through the roster, Orness explained. That fact, added with an admittedly sloppy start, he said, did not set a positive stage for the Spartans going into the game. “Our slow start is truly unacceptable,” Orness said. “We’ve got three or four guys that started last year every game — some of them have been starting since their sophomore year — and there’s no reason we [should] come out and make so many mental errors and force so many bad shots.” “I give a lot of credit to Garfield,” he added. “They played great and they played steady, but I feel like we beat ourselves in the first quarter.” Orness said that once the Spartans settled down and
found their rhythm, it was easy to see that they were more than capable of keeping pace with the Bulldogs, that it was only consistency that was lacking in Friday’s contest. It’s worth noting, however, that the most impressive Spartan performances of the evening did not come from the usual standout names. “The guys that I’m really proud of that went out there are my young guys; my sophomores and my junior,” Orness said of Terry, Conrad, Brendan Burke and Blake Bieber. “They went out there and made a strong case for themselves that they should get more playing time.” The starting players on the court would be decided by performance, Orness said, and no Spartan was guaranteed court time by their senior status. “Sawyer Conrad just went in there and made things happen,” he said. “He’s been a kid we’ve been swinging JV for the last two games and he had a game for himself that’s

Spartans break even on season, look ahead BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
The Spartans were unable to tame the Bulldogs Friday as the Bainbridge High School girls varsity basketball team fell 78-52 in their first game ever against the visitors from Garfield High. Though it ended in disappointment, the game actually got off to a good start for the home team and Spartan Head Coach Nicole Hebner said later that the first quarter was the best for the Spartans. “They kind of out-hustled us,” she said. BHS led 19-18 at the end of the first quarter, but they would quickly find themselves trailing behind the visitors early in the second. By the end of the half, the Bulldogs led 42-28, a points deficit which proved too much for BHS to overcome. With just over four minutes remaining in the third quarter, Garfield had pulled ahead to 56, with the Spartans stuck at 30. The game entered its final quarter with Bulldogs significantly ahead (66-40) despite a slight offensive upswing by the Spartans. The Bainbridge points leader was once again sophomore guard Taylor Tye, who managed 15 total. Senior guard Paige Brigham contributed eight points and junior wing Katie Usellis finished the night with seven. Carly Lant, Kiera Havill and Kayla Buchmeier each scored five points. With this loss at home, the Spartan season record fell to 2-2. Garfield currently boasts a 4-1 season record. The Spartans would next face off on the road against Holy Names Academy Wednesday, before returning home to host Seattle Preparatory at 6:15 p.m. Friday, Dec. 19. Hebner said that the Spartans played a good game, especially early on, but aggressive rebounding was clearly an area in which Garfield had outplayed them Friday. “We have to get better and we know that, but mainly the things that are killing us right now are rebounding and turnovers,” she explained. “We have to control the board and we have to take care of the basketball and if you don’t do those two things it’s hard to win.” Hebner credited Garfield with being the more overall athletic team of the evening as well. “We kind of gave in to their traps or their defense a little bit,” she said. “But we did some really good things tonight as well. The first quarter we played really, really solid basketball and if we can replicate that and continue to get better

Brigham agreed, saying that she believed the team already possessed the skill necessary to be successful and that it was only a matter of buckling down to work. “Moving forward from this, I think we can take away [that] we have the energy there and the passion,” she said. “But now we just need to think about our decisions a little bit more before we make them.” After hosting Seattle Prep, the Spartans will face off against North Kitsap and then Franklin High before hitting the road for their next two games.

In honor of Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, the Anzanga African Marimba Ensemble returns to Bainbridge Performing Arts to perform the lively and beautiful melodies of Southern Africa at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 9. For more than 20 years, the Seattle-based ensemble has brought the electrifying and energizing music of African marimba to the national and international stage including regional appearances at the Northwest Folklife Festival and Bumbershoot as well as performances in South Africa and China. The troupe’s repertoire is primarily from Zimbabwe, with influences from throughout Africa, in addition to original compositions. This special public performance is part of BPA’s Cultural Outreach Program. Anzanga plays using eight marimbas—three sopranos, three tenors, a baritone, and a bass—and hoshos, or gourd shakers. The marimbas are hand-crafted xylophones made from various hardwoods. The tuning is based on the tonalities found in Zimbabwean music. Each key sits above a resonator with a vibrating membrane to amplify the sound and add a unique “buzz” to the music. Tickets are $12 for adults and $10 for children (ages
12 and under), and may be purchased online at www. bainbridgeperformingarts. org, by phone at 206-842-8569 or in person at BPA, 200 Madison Ave. North.

Super Jeep takes Poulsbo men across Alaska
Off-roaders trek through the Alaskan wilderness for new History channel TV series and competition
BY KIPP ROBERTSON Kitsap Week
C
arl Jantz finds solutions to mechanical problems on a regular basis. A Toyota pickup was under repair in his shop Dec. 3. Tools and parts filled benches and tables throughout the shop. The owner of Jantz Engineering and his small staff stay busy. But it’s not always business for Jantz. Parked outside the shop sits a 1942 Willys Jeep. The fuel-injected Chevy V8-powered 4x4 is not the kind of Jeep commonly seen on the road. The Jeep has been stretched 25 inches. It’s 47-inch tires and lift raise it high off the ground — enough to make an average size person stretch to get in. The backup gas cans, rope tow, and other tools make it clear the vehicle is not meant for picking up the groceries. The roll cage on the
Jeep shows anyone who glances at this 4x4 that it has seen a few rough trips. “I did all the work on it,” Jantz said proudly. It’s known as Super Jeep. Inside his shop, Jantz shows a photo of what the Jeep looked like when he first purchased it. It was candy apple red. Now, the amount of wear and tear — dirt and scratches — are making it tougher to tell exactly what this machine looked like when it drove off the lot. Though few have seen what the Jeep looked like off the lot, plenty of people know what it looks like now. Jantz, born in Walla Walla, and Rich Rudman of Kingston, were selected as one of five teams to race off-road for the History channel show “Alaska Off-Road Warriors.” They were the only non-Alaskan team, according to the History channel. The show premiered Nov. 30. New

A JAZZY TWIST ON THE CLASSIC TALE... FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY!
Carl Jantz with his Super Jeep outside his auto shop in Poulsbo. Jantz and Kingston’s Rich Rudman are the only two people on “Alaska Off Road Warriors” not from Alaska. The Jeep was custom-built by Jantz. The show airs Sundays at 10 p.m. on the History channel. Episodes can be seen on www.history.com.

racing across trails in the Alaskan wilderness. The trails are divided into two legs. The race began near the Pacific Ocean, close to Anchorage on the southern coast of the state. It
continued to Deadhorse, on the northern coast of Alaska. The team with the lowest aggregated time from all the trails will be named the winner. The two Kitsap resi-
dents are the oldest in the contest, according to the show. Though Jantz is not able to discuss the show because of his contract with the History channel, it’s clear his life leading up to the race prepared him for what he faced in Alaska. “My folks used to talk to me about all the crazy places they used to go hunting,” Jantz said. “I have just always loved the outdoors.” Jantz drove his first 4x4 — a pedal 4x4 — when he was 5, on his birthday. He likes to say he’s been off-roading since then. His love of all things 4x4 continued to grow. Jantz would go hunting with his older brothers. See JEEP, Page 3

Continued from page 2 “I wasn’t as hooked on hunting as my brothers were,” he said. “I just kind of liked driving around, seeing the mountains, and four-wheeling.” Jantz took a slightly different path, focusing on driving challenging terrain. The 57-year-old has been breaking and repairing vehicles for fun nearly his entire life. “It’s just what I do,” he said. There have been some tense moments for Jantz during his time in the wilderness. He estimates he’s rolled his Jeep about three times. He’s had to abandon the Jeep when it has broken down on multiple occasions. Jantz’ typical off-road excursions are in the Olympics and Cascades, where he tries to go about once a month. In the summer, he goes over to the Cascades because of the legal trails offered. During the winter, he heads to the Olympics and drives logging roads covered in snow. “You get a few feet of snow on the road and it’s challenging,” Jantz said. “It’s a blast.” There have been some hairy breakdowns. For
”At 82, I’m going to park it and say it’s done. Then I’m going to tell my grandkids stories.” — Carl Jantz
example, one afternoon the Jeep broke down and Jantz found himself about 22 miles from the nearest house. The road was covered in snow and he had gone about 12 miles. Luckily, the last snowmobiler of a group picked him up not too long after the breakdown. “The No. 1 rule is don’t go out alone,” he said. “With that being said, I’ve pushed that limit a couple of times…” Why does he do it? Well, people have pioneered their way as far as the North Pole and South Pole; and even left the atmosphere. For Jantz, it’s a similar draw, but he wants to do it in a 4x4. Jantz has a degree in mechanical engineering. He opened an 4x4 shop in Spokane before working for Boeing as a manufacturer in research development. Now he’s back to what he loves. He operates Jantz Engineering (www. jantz4x4.com) in Poulsbo. The business isn’t your average shop; specializing in 4x4 repair and modifica-
tions — although vehicles of all kinds are welcome. The shop offers its own line of specialty products, too. Rudman owns Manzanita Macro, named for Manzanita Bay and headquartered in Kingston (www.manzanitamicro.com). The business specializes in electric vehicles and modifications and is an electric-vehicle component supplier. Since returning from Alaska, Jantz’ phone has been constantly ringing. The show brought a lot of attention for the Poulsbo resident. “I hope it kind of gets down to a dull roar,” he said, adding that he’s enjoyed every minute. The 57-year-old Poulsbo resident plans to continue off-roading until he’s in his 80s, he said. Jantz wants to celebrate his Jeep’s 100th birthday before he stops. “At 82 I’m going to park it and say it’s done,” Jantz said. “Then I’m going to tell my grandkids stories; actually it will be great-grandkids by then.”

Red wines for a holiday and winter meal
A look at local red wines apt for the season
C
hristmas is coming, and that often means meals that are richer, more bold and more comforting — and this calls for red wines. During the holiday season, there are more opportunities to meet with friends and family during get-togethers, parties and dinners. The food served is often heartier, including roasted meats and vegetables, stews, casseroles, lasagna, ham and venison. The flavors and textures associated with such dishes mean wines with bigger flavors and more structure. Protein and fats are great at taming bold, tannic wines, and this can mean a glorious food-pairing opportunity.
NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
Here are a few big red wines we’ve tasted in recent weeks that should pair well with what you’re likely to be eating not only through the end of 2014, but also well into the winter months. Any also would make a terrific Christmas gift. Ask for these at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. Barnard Griffin 2010 Malbec, Columbia Valley, $35: Owner/ winemaker Rob Griffin barrel-aged this Malbec a little longer than usual, which allowed it to be more fully mature upon release. Aromas of dark chocolate, blueberry, poached plums, cherry cola and allspice lead to rich flavors of fruit
compote with blackberry, black cherry and a dusting of cocoa powder. (14.25 percent alc.) Milbrandt Vineyards 2011 Northridge Vineyard Sentinel, Wahluke Slope, $55: This Meritage-style blend is winemaker Josh Maloney’s top-shelf bottling. Beautiful aromas of black currant, blueberry and lilac are surrounded by vanilla, cocoa and allspice. The drink is luscious with flavors of black cherry and boysenberry, which come upon rounded tannins and ample acidity. (13. percent alc.) Nefarious Cellars 2012 Defiance Vineyard Malbec, Lake Chelan, $35: Lake Chelan winemakers Dean and Heather Neff have developed a cult following. While they’ve made headlines with their work from their estate with Riesling and Rhône variet-

Josh Maloney is the head winemaker of Milbrandt Vineyards. The winemaking facility is in Mattawa, Wash., and the tasting room is in the Yakima Valley town of Prosser. Andy Perdue ies — Dean does the reds, Heather hones the whites — their estate Defiance Vineyard again proves itself with Malbec. Its hallmark is the theme of ripe Marionberry and black cherry, and while there’s
black licorice concentration on the midpalate, its lithe tannin structure allows for the delicious lingering of blueberry acidity to become the focus. (14.6 percent alc.) Amavi Cellars 2012

STARS ABOVE KITSAP LOCAL ASTROLOGY / HOROSCOPES SIGNS
By SUZANNE O’CLAIR
T
he Stark family’s prophecy is fulfilled: Winter has come! The darkest season arrives heralded by Solstice (Dec. 21), the darkest day of the year, which coincides with the new moon at 5:36 p.m. on the darkest night of the month. An astrological chart for this moon carries double significance because it gives us a look ahead at this month as well as the entire winter season. Center stage are five planets in Capricorn carrying the weight of collective wisdom. They range from the fiery Sun (will) to icy Pluto (power), including Mercury (intelligence), Venus (love) and the moon (emotions).
Aries: March 21 - April 19 Taurus: April 20 - May 20 Gemini: May 21 - June 20 Cancer: June 21 - July 22 Leo: July 23 - Aug. 22 Virgo: Aug. 23 - Sept. 22 Libra: Sept. 23 - Oct. 22 Scorpio: Oct. 23 - Nov. 21 Sagittarius: Nov. 22 - Dec. 21 Capricorn: Dec. 22 - January 19 Aquarius: Jan. 20 - Feb. 18 Pisces: Feb. 19 - March 20 Capricorn settles us into the earthy, pragmatic, focused work of making dreams come true. Stepby-step, day-by-day, little-by-little. During this winter, we can mature. Or we can hitch our wagon to erratic Uranus and be a rebel without a cause. Rewards come when we use our individual genius to do truly innovative work — as a group. At solstice/new moon, follow the poet Rilke’s advice. “Go into your self and see how deep the place is from which your life flows.” We remember that in darkness the only light we see is our own. And we may well ask how much more light do we want to
carry next year? In quiet dark, we wait. And, then, the miracle occurs. The light of all lights lifts us up into a new cycle of love and life. In this Light, revisit your dream. Then, turn your hand to the work of it. In this cycle of new light, all things are possible. Horoscopes For the Dec. 21 new moon to the Jan. 5 full moon. Capricorn, five gods and goddesses are polishing you. Step up and be a leader we can follow with honor. Your ambitions must work for the good of the whole ... not for yourself alone, or your boss or stockholders. No offense, but hey, Jesus was a Capricorn. Lead us in work worth doing!
Aquarius, you must, must, must take down time this month. Mars, the Energizer bunny planet, is giving you plenty of juice to wrap up the old cycle and get ready for the future. So many ideas and possibilities, but the clues are whispering in the quiet. Shhhh ... Pisces, your benefit from this grounded cycle comes by keeping it real. You can do miraculous work but, don’t get lost in fantasies about what you think is happening. Follow the footsteps of Martin Luther King who embodied the Capricorn/Pisces energy. He had a dream, but he led his people stepby-step. Leo, speaking of fantasies, how is your health, your weight, your daily habits. You know what needs worked on, and the bad news is, if you don’t, it shows — as in too much bass? Jupiter in your sign is slowing down the party so you can get on track. Just do it. You’ll feel better — and look good! Scorpio, the weight of your normal self-reflection lifts. You may be initiating different ways of learning, teaching and your general daily interactions. Put that crazy energy to work cleaning out the basement, or the man-cave. Gemini, you love socializing and gabbing but sometimes, enough is enough. In fact, all that chatting and interaction is what produces change in you. Slow down and
”Rewards come when we use our individual genius to do truly innovative work — as a group.” let it settle in. Make your personal shift now: close relationships are involved soon. Sagittarius, re-assess your skills, talents and resources for your new gig. Own what is yours and budget it for use in your mission. Saturn, the reality master, helps you trim your vision into manageable pieces over the next few years. Oh, and it’s play-off season — but you knew that already! Taurus, this gift of Capricornian wisdom shifts you into the reaping cycle. Make a plan for how to manage being at your peak of professional visibility. Any madness at work needs innovative action. Riding the Goatwave demands that you follow your plan and not get swept up in power plays. Virgo, the glut of Capricorn planets falls in your area of fun! Not so easy for fretful you, but the fun comes in a focused, managerial way — just your style! Make a detailed action plan, and at the top of the page, write down WHY you are doing what you are doing and visit that statement regularly.
Libra, you have a crowd at home! Are they family and friends? Or a remodeling crew? A moving van and packing team? Whatever it is, it’s all about home base. Keeping balance among all involved demands selfcare. Remember the lesson of the airplane masks — put yours on first! Aries, the restless energy of Uranus that’s been driving you is tied into this chart. Harness that energy! It’s time to put your individuality and abundant drive to work for the group. They need your spark. And you need the team, and real results to see yourself clearly. Cancer, close friends and partners need your skills and resources this winter. As you lend a hand you get more of yourself back. But be discerning — no whiny babies needed. Help the people who are there for you in a pinch. — Suzanne O’Clair is an astrologer of 40 years with a background in applied communication.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for Antiques & firewood in Washington Collectibles is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857.

Councilman leaves amid email controversy: David Ward submitted his resignation letter to the city Dec. 10. In it, the former Central Ward councilman made no mention of the public records lawsuit and settlement that forced his departure from the city council. Instead, he cited “health reasons” for quitting his post on the council. “Dear Council Members: I need to memorialize my resignation to city council. To this point, it has just been conveyed to you verbally. Effective immediately, I am resigning my position on the council for health reasons. While I have enjoyed serving the citizens of the Island, I need to give my full attention to my recovery.” Ward, who was three years into a four-year term, was forced to step down as part of a settlement agreement that ended a public records lawsuit against the city. Bainbridge agreed last week to pay a settlement totaling $487,790 to Althea Paulson and Bob Fortner, who filed a public records lawsuit against the city last
year after the city failed to provide emails that were sent between council members Ward, Councilman Steve Bonkowski and then-councilwoman Debbi Lester that focused on city business. A Superior Court judge ruled in May that the city did not do an adequate job of searching for the public records that were requested, and the decision including a scathing rebuke of Ward and Bonkowski for deleting emails from their personal email accounts that were public records. The judge also said the personal email accounts of Ward and Bonkowski could be searched for missing records, along with the hard drives of their personal computers. In the agreement, Ward agreed to step down while Bonkowski was spared from having to turn over his computer and email account for further inspection. Before the agreement was signed, Ward also admitted that evidence in the court case had been destroyed. His attorney said the computer that he had been using for his personal email account was owned by his employer, and the laptop had been returned upon his retirement
and had since been wiped clean. His lawyer also noted that Ward had given false information while under oath in the court case about his search for missing records. The city’s total cost of the lawsuit in legal fees and the settlement is $752,627. That amount does not include staff time at city hall and other internal costs for the court case. The settlement is expected to be paid early next year and will not be covered by the city’s insurance. Paulson again said Dec. 10 that she and Fortner are not planning to keep the settlement money. “We intend to give the proceeds to island nonprofits,” Paulson said. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTON PATRIOT Humane Society awarded grant: It was just six weeks ago that Kitsap Humane Society celebrated a record-breaking 198 adoptions in just three days during the ASPCA Mega Match Adopt-a-thon. Now, the society is celebrating a $5,000 “bonus” grant, according to Rachel Lee Bearbower, Kitsap Humane Society marketing and event manager. Kitsap Humane Society became eligible for the prize when it cruised past its goal See AROUNDKITSAP, Page 19
Friday, December 19, 2014
AroundKitsap Continued from page 18
of 111 adoptions on day two of the three-day event. The ASPCA presented this prize to one organization in each category that exceeded its adoption goal by the greatest percentage in that category. Categories were based on shelter size and size of adoption goal. Kitsap Humane Society’s goal of 111 adoptions was chosen as it was three times the number of adoptions completed over the same weekend the year before. And even after that, record-breaking weekends haven’t slowed as the county’s shelter closed out Black Friday with 91 adoptions, said Bearbower. “We are in the business of saving lives and it is our goal to make it easy and fun for people to rescue,” said Natalie Smith, director of animal welfare. “Our community is doing the rest.” The bonus grant money will be used to support Kitsap Humane Society’s growing adoptions and other lifesaving programs. Kitsap Humane Society is a private, non-profit, charitable organization that has been caring for animals in need since 1908. KHS admits almost 5,000 animals per year and has a 95 percent lives saved rate. — BremertonPatriot.com
CENTRAL KITSAP REPORTER Teachers appreciated, but stressed out: Teachers and staff at Central Kitsap schools are highly appreciated but feel overworked, according to the results from the “Thoughtexchange” online survey which the district sponsored this year. Using the Thoughtexchange process, 4,104 people submitted 9,074 comments via a district web page. Later, they voted on their own ideas or for ideas submitted by other people by allocating “stars” to the submissions they liked best. A total of 115,924 stars were allocated. The data collection phase is over and final results will be posted on the district’s web site (www.cksd.wednet. edu) by the next CK school board meeting Jan. 14. But school board members got an early peek at the Thoughtexchange results last week. The summary showed that parents and guardians accounted for 65 percent of the responses. School staff accounted for 23 percent, students for six percent,
citizens for four percent and “other” for one percent. According to the data, around 40 percent of the total stars showed appreciation for teachers staff and leadership. “School environment” received the second-highest marks with around seven percent of the total stars. Teachers and staff “truly care about the children,” the report stated. The data also showed where the district needed improvement. Example: teachers and staff felt overworked. “All staff are overwhelmed,” according to the report. The issue was a top-scorer across nine different schools. About 11 percent of the stars regarded concerns about curriculum and extra-curricular activities, especially with Common Core and Common Core math. Class size, school safety, healthy eating, trouble with parking were also among the top concerns. — CentralKitsapReporter. com
NORTH KITSAP HERALD 105-foot-boat beaches in Liberty Bay: Ray Diehl woke to a stormy morning Dec. 9 at his waterfront home on the western shore of Liberty Bay. Diehl focused further off shore, though, and noticed the storm was at odds with the Queen of Sheba, a 105foot wooden yacht anchored in Liberty Bay. And the boat was losing. The record high wind of the morning of Dec. 9 was 37 miles per hour, at around 7:53 a.m. High tide was nearly 12 feet at 7:33 a.m. It was around that time that the Queen of Sheba’s anchor broke loose from the bay’s floor. The boat collided with a sailboat anchored in the bay, knocking that boat’s anchor loose. The sailboat was soon

Dancers perform during Bremerton’s Winterfest on Dec. 5 in the Harborside area of downtown. Behind them is the city’s Christmas tree which was lit by Mayor Patty Lent during the festivities. Santa also made an appearance. Luke Wesson blowing in the wind as well, trailing behind the Queen of Sheba. By 11:33 a.m., the yacht had dragged its anchor from south of the Port of Poulsbo’s marina, to the north of it, and it wasn’t slowing down. By 12:30 p.m., it had struck the muddy bottom of the bay, near Bovela Lane on the western shoreline. Poulsbo police officers went out in the police boat on Dec. 10 to check on the vessel, as the Queen of Sheba was still at the north end of Liberty Bay. Officers towed the boat out of Liberty Bay, under the impression that friends of the Queen of Sheba were coming to tow it further, ultimately to Port Townsend. Police took the vessel as far at Lemolo, just across from Keyport. But on the morning of Dec. 11, the Queen of Sheba was still off the shores of Lemolo, laying on its port side during low tide. On Dec. 12, the state’s Department of Natural Resources took control of the boat and towed it to the Port of Poulsbo.

PORT ORCHARD INDEPENDENT Mayor points to Bainbridge as lesson for emails: During the Dec. 9 Port Orchard City Council meeting, Mayor Tim Matthes asked council members to not use their business or personal email accounts for city business. The mayor said the city
can’t maintain control over council communications if council members are using business or personal email accounts. He urged council members to use their city email accounts for city business only. “We can’t afford not to — in my opinion — if we get a $500,000 judgment thrown at us for doing the various things we’ve done in the past,” Matthes said, referencing a case on Bainbridge
Island where a councilman was forced to resign and the city had to pay out hundreds of thousands of dollars. The Bainbridge Review reported city officials signed a settlement agreement on Dec. 9 with two activists to end their public records lawsuit against the city in exchange for a nearly $500,000 payout and the resignation of Councilman David Ward. — PortOrchardIndependent.com
