Tulalips target domestic violence An agreement enables the Tribes to strengthen its justice system, lessen domestic violence on tribal lands and to ensure that criminals are prosecuted more effectively.

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

TULALIP — The Tulalip Tribes are now one of just three Native American tribes in the country to take advantage of a federal

program designed to better combat domestic violence on tribal lands.

In an agreement signed with the U.S. Attorney’s Office on Friday during a regular meeting of the Tribes’ board of directors,

tribal prosecuting attorney Sharon Jones Hayden was appointed Special Assistant U.S. Attorney with expanded authority over domestic violence cases.

Hayden’s appointment is part of a federal pilot program to allow tribes to start exercising this new authority under the 2013 reauthorization of the federal Violence Against Women Act, which recognizes the authority of tribes to prosecute certain domestic

violence crimes committed on tribal lands by non-Indians as well as Indians.

A 1978 U.S. Supreme Court ruling, Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe, prevents Tribal Courts from filing charges against non-tribal defendants, even if they occurred on Indian reservations, without special authorization from Congress.

The pilot program has three goals: to strengthen tribal justice

‘A little bit of paradise’

Golf course, marina ... Hat Island has got it all, except visitors

systems, to decrease domestic violence on tribal lands and to ensure that criminals are prosecuted in the most effective manner available.

One U.S. Department of Justice study looking at crime from 19922002 found the majority of violent crimes against Indians were committed by non-Indians.

network of gravel roads — save for some beach lots with no road access. There’s a nine-hole golf course and a yacht club.

“We have no stores, nothing commercial on the island, a PGA-rated golf course and houses of every description,” Maulsby said.

A homeowners association functions as a de-facto government. Its budget comes from a $475 yearly fee on each of the island’s approximately 980 lots.

That provides about a half-million dollars to pay for trash, roads, marina and a four-day-a-week

LYNNWOOD — They call it the blue-tarp syndrome.

When houses are in disrepair, it’s damaging to the whole neighborhood, Lynnwood Police Chief Steve Jensen said.

Think stacks of tires on the sidewalks. Broken-down cars leaking fluids. Piles of trash.

In April, the Lynnwood Police Department created a new unit focused on community health and safety. The unit, led by Sgt. T.J. Brooks, combines aspects of crime prevention and code enforcement. He and others work closely with public works, parks, the community development office, the city attorney and the fire marshal.

They’ve been on “blight tours” of the city and gone after problem spots together.

“It’s unconventional, but it’s legal and it’s far more effective,” Brooks said.

The idea for the new unit got started shortly after the police chief was out on a emergency call in the south end of town.

The chief saw sofas ditched outside, mattresses and box springs. It got him thinking about blight.

“It just destroys a neighborhood,” he said.

Those nuisance issues can be a gray area for law enforcement, Brooks said.

With the exception of drugs,

HAT ISLAND — They’re almost done expanding their private marina to the tune of $4 million.

Some people who call Hat Island home predict that the new docks are just the beginning. Big changes are underway for this hideaway in plain sight of the Everett waterfront. They point to a record number of homes on the market, plus a demographic shift acknowledged by the island’s new arrivals and old-timers alike.

“Our biggest problem is

getting people over here,” said Charlotte Maulsby, a Realtor who owns a beach house on the south end of the island. “They don’t even know we’re out here.”

A speck in Possession Sound, between Everett and Whidbey Island, Hat Island measures about a mile-and-a-half long by a half-mile wide. Officially known as Gedney Island, few use that name anymore.

Variously exploited as a gravel pit and bombing range during the past century, things changed drastically in the early 1960s.

That’s when a group of investors tried to market the island as “Hat Island Riviera.” The venture

DNA: It’s what friends often share

By Malcolm Ritter Associated Press

NEW YORK — You may be more similar to your friends than you think: A study suggests that the DNA code tends to be more alike between friends than between strangers.

That’s beyond the effect of shared ethnicity, researchers say. And it could be important for theories about human evolution, says James Fowler of the University of California, San Diego.

He and Yale researcher Nicholas Christakis present their results in a paper released Monday by the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

How much more alike are friends than strangers?

Not much. Imagine the

On the Net Journal: http://pnas.org small similarity between fourth cousins, people who share a set of great-greatgreat grandparents.

The study included 1,932 participants in a longrunning health study in Framingham, Massachusetts. Researchers knew who was close friends with whom from the 1970s to the early 2000s because of information gathered for the study.

From this group they identified 1,367 pairs of close friends and about 1.2 million pairs of strangers. Then they examined information about nearly 467,000 locations in the DNA code of each

participant. They looked for how similar the friend pairs were, and compared that to how similar the stranger pairs were.

The researchers found that genes affecting sense of smell were especially likely to be similar in friends.

Why would friends have more DNA similarities than strangers? Fowler said it’s not clear. One possibility is that similar genes nudge people toward similar environments, which then gives them a chance to meet. Another possibility is that people who share certain genes also share skills that become more valuable when the people work together, he said. This could have been important over evolutionary time, and so set up a pattern that people still follow, he said.

Fowler also said it’s not clear whether the finding pertains to groups outside of the Framingham study group, which is overwhelmingly Irish and Italian.

In any case, findings of DNA similarities between friends could help explain how behaviors like altruism developed over evolutionary time, he said.

Francisco Ayala, who studies evolutionary genetics at the University of California, Irvine, said the study’s results surprised him. But “the statistics are there” to back up the conclusions, he said.

Ben Domingue, a researcher at the University of Colorado, Boulder, called the results intriguing. “I am fairly convinced that they are onto something,” he wrote in an email.

Rapper who taunted police back in jail

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

EVERETT — An Everett blind rapper who released a single taunting police to catch him is back behind bars.

Everett police said Wayne Frisby, aka Mac Wayne, was in possession of a loaded .40-caliber Glock pistol early Saturday morning in downtown. The convicted felon is banned from having any guns.

An officer spotted Frisby

around 3 a.m. in the 2200 block of Hoyt Avenue. He had a backpack at his feet, the officer wrote in an affidavit filed Monday in Everett District Court.

The officer recognized Frisby and determined that he had a

warrant for his arrest from a drug charge. Frisby failed to show up for a June court hearing.

Frisby was arrested but denied that the backpack was his.

“The backpack was just sitting there at almost 3 o’clock

in the morning so the officer impounded it as found property and searched it to do an inventory,” Everett police office Aaron Snell said.

Katie Merwick runs the nonprofit Second Chance Ranch where she helps transition thoroughbred horses into the next phase of their lives after racing. RSecond Chance Ranch has around 50 horses on property in Stanwood.

Stanwood haven for hayburners Katie Merwick’s desire: People to adopt horses, donate for their care

By Kari Bray Herald Writer

STANWOOD ­— Katie Merwick disappears in a crush of big brown heads, dwarfed by the dark-eyed thoroughbred horses she calls her family.

Nudging and whinnying, the horses at Second Chance Ranch in Stanwood snag bites of peppermints, licorice or coveted orange carrots from Merwick’s hands.

She knows every one of the 48 horses by name. There’s June Bug, Dreamer, Kaptain, Star and Selma. Cassanova and Katie’s Rio are standing nearby. Thor and Flying Notes are on their way over.

“There’s no truth to thoroughbreds being really hot and crazy,” Merwick said, walking

through groups of horses on a sunny Wednesday morning.

“You could get on any one of these guys and ride him home.”

That’s what she would like to see happen. At Second Chance Ranch, the nonprofit she started 30 years ago, Merwick retrains thoroughbreds that have been retired from equestrian sports, then adopts them out to families as trail horses or pasture pets.

“I’m different from other rescues because I work with racing and not against it,” Merwick said. “I don’t rescue them off the track. I usually rescue them after they’ve been off the track and someone else screwed up.”

Second Chance Ranch moved from Rainier to a leased 30-acre property in Stanwood this spring. Merwick, 50, is trying to find homes for all but five or

She hopes to close Second Chance Ranch by May 2015.

Group to map out future of Japanese Gulch

front porch

MUKILTEO — For years, securing the land known as Japanese Gulch was a dream.

In February, the acquisition of the final — and, at 98 acres, the largest — chunk of land assured its future as a park.

But that left many

questions about its future, which a 12-member group appointed to work on the park’s master plan will help determine.

“We’ll be looking at all the different types of uses currently in the park and what ones will continue and where do those happen,” said Jennifer Berner, the city’s recreation and cultural services director.

Get your rain barrel The city is selling rain barrels to Everett residents Saturday, July 19, from 9 a.m.-12 p.m. at Everett Public Works, 3200 Cedar Street.

The 55-gallon barrels come with a spigot, overflow and double screen to keep out bugs and debris.

RThe barrels cost $55. Checks or cash is accepted. Residents can also assemble their own barrels with

EVERETT — An Edmonds man is accused of embezzling about $100,000 from a Mukilteo company.

The thefts happened over six months last year, according to court papers.

Raymond Alindogan, 55, is expected to appear in Snohomish County Superior Court next week to answer to the allegations.

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Tammy Bayard earlier this month charged Alindogan with first-degree theft, a felony.

The case was investigated by Mukilteo police.

The allegations came to the attention of the aerospace company’s owner in July 2013 when his bank called to report that Alindogan had made numerous cash withdrawals from the business account.

Alindogan was employed as the company’s controller and had permission to withdraw money, according to an affidavit prepared by Mukilteo police

The members of the group that will help map the park’s future were selected by Berner and Mayor Jennifer Gregerson.

Members include representatives of groups interested in the park, such as those active with the city’s dog park; mountain biking and hiking enthusiasts; and members of the Japanese Gulch Group which worked

the help of public works staff at a workshop Sept. 23. The workshop fee is $40 per barrel. RSVP by calling 425-257-8992. Go to everettwa. org/default.aspx?ID=2170.

most of the problems at nuisance properties aren’t the kind that will lead to felony convictions, Jensen said.

Police can make arrests, but community development staff are who deal with issues such as illegal canopies, overgrown weeds and garbage piles, Mayor Nicola Smith said.

So, now they’re working together, in neighborhoods that have been a little “unloved,” she said.

“Being able to put all of the resources expediently and effectively into one area, it really shows that neighborhood that we care, we want you to care about your neighborhood, we’re going to give you a kick-start, and here are all the resources you have available to keep your neighborhood up,” she said.

Drug houses have been among the targets.

In many cases, police can’t evict trespassers from a private property.

Narcotics investigations can take months.

Since the recession, banks have been reluctant to get involved in legal action regarding squatters and foreclosed homes.

Brooks has been contacting landlords.

They’ve been responsive so far, he said.

“We’re very blunt with them,” he said.

Businesses with multiple license violations often have other problems lurking, Brooks said.

Police have found people illegally living inside nail salons and massage parlors where they are employed. They’ve cracked down on street vendors selling counterfeit goods, such as Seahawks gear, Brooks said.

The unit has investigated motels and makeshift campgrounds, including one behind Beverly Elementary.

The camps were littered with heroin needles, the mayor said.

People were stealing power generators for their camps, and taking bicycles from the school.

“You can’t have people stealing kids’ bikes,” Jensen said.

Brooks relies on help from volunteers, police explorers and cadets.

The unit could grow with time.

The City Council also is considering at least one change in the rules.

At the moment, Lynnwood does not require residents to have a garbage collection service.

About a third of Snohomish County cities have such a rule. The council is expected to make a decision soon.

“Typically folks dealing drugs at a house don’t live a pristine lifestyle,” Jensen said. “They don’t want to pay for garbage (pickup).”

The city employs one code enforcement officer in the police department and one in community development. Two former code enforcement officer positions were lost in the recession.

City officials still can seek court orders to get abandoned buildings demolished or repaired, but that takes money and time, with limited resources.

Brooks keep pictures of the problem houses they’ve visited on his computer at the police station, from before and after.

In the “before” shots, nine garbage cans were overflowing in one driveway. Lumber. A car, covered in a foot of dead pine needles.

Grass three-feet high.

Ice chests. Broken furniture. Crooked fences. Old buses.

One neighborhood threw a block party after the cleanup effort, Brooks said.

The neighbors hung a hand-painted banner for police, reading “Thank you.”

has been a resource for Snohomish County when other horse owners or rescues ran into problems, said Vicki Lubrin, licensing and animal control services manager. For example, Merwick helped find homes for 10 thoroughbreds seized in a 2009 animal cruelty case.

“She is knowledgeable and has many years of experience in equine rescue,” Lubrin said.

Tax forms show that Second Chance Ranch has brought in just less than $200,000 per year since 2010, with the bulk of the budget going toward food, grooming, medical care and transportation for the horses. Merwick estimates it costs $163 per day to feed the herd at Second Chance Ranch, and

“There’s this saying: You don’t know how tough you are until you have to be,” Merwick said. “I never planned to be taking care of 50 horses with a shoestring budget.”

The Stanwood community is supportive, she said. Northwest Veterinary Clinic in Stanwood has an account for Second Chance Ranch, where people can donate through the clinic. Donations can also be made at www. secondchanceranch.org, or by calling Merwick at 425-443-4638.

Merwick hopes to stay in the area after closing Second Chance Ranch.

She plans to train horses, host seminars for owners, and consult for other horse rescue charities.

“I only started the rescue because I saw a need for it,”

Merwick said. “Now there are a lot of rescues and I see a need for someone with experience to help out.”

Merwick grew up in Silverdale and started riding horses when she was five.

“I grew up fearless,” she said. “And since I loved and trusted them, I’ve always had this relationship with horses.”

She studied early childhood development, but found herself more inclined to work with animals than people. She was 21 when she started Second Chance Ranch.

“I don’t regret a moment of it,” Merwick said. “As challenging and hard and heart-wrenching as the job can be, it’s 10 times more rewarding. Everyone who takes a horse is going to find that.”

his pocket.

The officer had probable cause to believe the backpack belonged to Frisby, Snell said.

Frisby made a brief appearance Monday in Everett District Court.

Judge Tam Bui set bail at $22,000.

Frisby was sentenced last year to a short jail stay for a drug conviction. He was found with heroin, cocaine and methamphetamine while being booked into the Snohomish County Jail in connection with a bizarre reported robbery in Marysville.

Ultimately Frisby beat

the robbery charge after the alleged victim recanted her story. She had told police that Frisby chopped off a chunk of her hair and stole her car keys. Prosecutors were forced to drop the charge after she changed her story.

Frisby was on the run for weeks after being charged with robbery. Someone claiming to be him called The Herald and denied robbing anyone.

While on the lam Frisby released a new single challenging the cops to find him. The Snohomish County Violent Offender Task Force caught up with

Frisby in a motel in Oakland, California.

Frisby describes himself as “the undisputed Ray Charles of rap, 100 percent blind and 100 percent raw.”

The rapper advertises that “a gunshot to the head took his sight and in the same instant gave him the ability to see whole songs in his mind.”

He’s released videos that include cameo appearances by a Snohomish County Superior Court judge and a public defender.

planner for Snohomish County; Dustin Weller, a Japanese Gulch board member; Eli Klem of the Mukilteo Youth Advisory Council; and Susan Gereherd, a long-time gulch hiker. A member of the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance also will be appointed to the group.

The group will help plan land use for the park’s entire 144 acres, which includes property acquired before the most recent purchase in February.

The park’s land stretches from the lower part of the gulch near the dog park to the top of the property near the Mukilteo Community Garden.

“Obviously, the dog park isn’t going to move, but how does that relate to the rest of the park?” Berner asked.

The park includes mature forest, steep ravines and wetlands. Wildlife spotted there include coyotes, mountain beavers, bald eagles, pileated and hairy woodpeckers, barred owls, coho salmon and searun cutthroat.

Japanese Gulch attracts a variety of enthusiasts, including hikers, bird watchers, dog walkers and mountain bikers. The citizen committee will help determine where areas in the park can have shared uses.

The city hopes to be able to open up more parking at

the park’s main entrance near the corner of 44th Avenue W and 76th Street SW, perhaps by the end of this month, Berner said.

Until recently, most of the land in Japanese Gulch was privately owned, but it was considered to be and has been used as a public park by many people.

Japanese Gulch “is one of those jewels in the middle of a city environment like you see in other communities,” Berner said. “You think you are out in the woods somewhere. Those are very special places for us to preserve.”

There are no paid employees at Second Chance Ranch. Merwick’s room and board is part of the nonprofit’s budget.

“Our huge needs right now are adoptions and funding,” Merwick said.

“We’re pretty behind. But the horses don’t know.

They don’t suffer.”

For adoptions, Merwick screens people over the phone, then sets up a time for them to meet the horses. Once someone selects a horse, they take it for a ride. She then arranges a short trial period for the horse to go home with its new owner.

“It’s not a really complicated process,” she said. “It just takes a week or two.”

Man charged for alleged metal thefts

EVERETT — A Snohomish man allegedly hunted in parking lots outside a high school, bus stations and stores in his quest for precious metals.

Prosecutors allege that Michael Heuslein, 40, cut emission devices from pickup trucks and sports utility vehicles to harvest bits of metals inside. The catalytic converters contain platinum and palladium, which are valuable to scrap metal recyclers.

Prosecutors on Friday charged Heuslein with multiple counts of seconddegree malicious mischief.

Everett police suspect the Heuslein is responsible for dozens of stolen catalytic converters here since last year. Heuslein also allegedly admitted that he’s stolen the devices from vehicles in Tukwila, Bellevue and at the Sea-Tac International Airport.

In charging papers, prosecutors say that Heuslein hit the Everett Transit Center several times. He also stole the devices from cars parked at Everett High School, Winco and a strip mall along Evergreen Way. The vehicle owners reported that it cost up to $1,200 to replace the catalytic converter.

Heuslein has seven prior felony convictions and 36 misdemeanor convictions.

Attempted carjack Police were searching for a motorcyclist who crashed on I-5 on Monday and then tried to carjack a vehicle with two children inside.

The children’s mother fought off the man. He ran from the freeway and likely stole a silver and black Mazda Miata from the driveway of a nearby home.

The incident happened Monday afternoon in the southbound lanes of the I-5 just north than 128th Street SW. The motorcycle was speeding when it crashed into another vehicle, Washington State Patrol trooper Mark Francis said.

Other drivers attempted to help the motorcyclist, who was bleeding. He tried to steal one of their cars.

The woman fought the man off. Two children were in the backseat of the car, Francis said.

The motorcyclist ran west, off the freeway. He may have assaulted a man who followed him, Francis said. Troopers believe he then stole a Miata.

The motorcycle appears to have been stolen, Francis said.

The suspect is white and in his 30s. He was wearing a red sports jersey with the No. 35 on the back.

More felony charges A storage locker full of guns and a car full of heroin and methamphetamine have added to the legal troubles facing a Bothell man.

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Janice Albert already twice this year has charged Aaron Knapp with drug crimes. The deputy prosecutor Friday charged Knapp with multiple additional felonies in connection with his most recent arrest. Last month investigators allegedly found 16 guns, including an anti-tank weapon, inside Knapp’s car and storage locker.

The Snohomish Regional Drug and Gang Task Force arranged to buy drugs from Knapp with the help of a confidential informant. A drug-sniffing dog nosed out drugs in Knapp’s car and locker, Albert wrote in charging papers. A bombsniffing dog also indicated that there were explosives in the locker.

Police found more than a combined pound of meth and heroin, three guns and $47,000 in cash in the car, court papers said. They found 13 more firearms in the storage locker. The convicted felon cannot possess firearms.

Knapp was being held on $1 million bail.

MOUNT RAINIER NATIONAL PARK — A Mount Rainier National Park spokeswoman said searchers are looking for a 64-year-old Tacoma man who failed to meet up with his son during a weekend hike.

Park spokeswoman Fawn Bauer said the search for Edwin Birch is expected to resume this morning.

Nearly two dozen people joined the ground search Monday, including a dog team. Aircraft from Northwest Helicopters also helped.

The News Tribune reported that Birch was last seen, by his son, Saturday afternoon along a stretch of the 93-mile

Wonderland Trail.

Bauer said the two had planned to hike a 19-mile stretch of the Wonderland Trail on Saturday, between Box Canyon and White River. She said Birch dropped his son off at one trailhead, then he set out from another.

Their plan was to hike the same trail from opposite directions.

Bauer said the son reported his father seemed fine, though a bit tired, when they met each other halfway at about 3:30 p.m.

After the son finished his hike about midnight Saturday, he picked up their car and drove to pick up his father at White River. He asked rangers for help early Sunday.

AROUND SNOHOMISH COUNTY Granite Falls: Fire levy vote planned in fall Snohomish County Fire District 17 in Granite Falls has decided to ask voters for an emergency medical service levy this fall.

The board of commissioners approved the measure at last week’s meeting.

If the plan is passed by voters, the district would keep the current levy rate at 50 cents per $1,000 in property value.

The owner of a $200,000 house would pay $100 a year.

The current levy is set to expire next year.

Officials said crews did good work protecting more than 100 houses along Highway 97A. On Saturday, they were working to protect 14 homes along Roaring Creek, near the fire’s northern edge.

Another priority was digging fire lines along the western edge to contain the blaze.

Crews are using about 10 aircraft to dump fire retardant or buckets of water.

More than 1,000 firefighters are working on the blaze.

Monday’s focus was on the southwest and northwest corners of the fire.

“They’re taking advantage of the light winds we’ve had to go to a direct attack on the fire,” fire spokesman Danny O’Connor said.

He said that means they’re getting closer to the flames and going after hot spots. The Mills Canyon fire was the largest of a half-dozen fires burning in central and eastern Washington. The others were all less than 3 square miles, and most were contained or nearing full containment.

SEATTLE — Washington state regulators have fined a property owner $79,000 for clearing sensitive shoreline on San Juan Island.

The Department of Ecology last week issued two penalties to Orca Dreams LLC for illegally cutting down at least 80 trees last

fall, as well as failing to get a permit and allowing polluting material to enter False Bay. Orca Dreams was formed by Dave Honeywell, a Fredericksburg, Virginia, man who won a $217 million Powerball lottery last year, KUOW-FM reported. The company paid $6 million for the property on San Juan’s

outer shore and plans to develop it into a retirement home and family compound with multiple buildings.

Friday Harbor lawyer Stephanie Johnson O’Day, who is representing Honeywell and his wife, said they accept responsibility for their contractor clearing more brush than they wanted. She said the

couple will appeal the fine.

“Admittedly, the fellow who did the brush clearing went overboard,” she told KUOW. “But it wasn’t clearcutting. Instead of thinning out the bushes, he took out all the bushes.”

The Honeywells are being “crucified” for something that’s been blown completely out of proportion, she said.

Egypt proposes cease-fire plan Israel and Hamas say they are considering halt to fighting Associated Press JERUSALEM — Egypt presented a cease-fire plan Monday to end a week of heavy fighting between Israel and Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip that has left at least 185 people dead, and both sides said they were seriously considering the proposal.

The late-night offer by Egypt marked the first sign of a breakthrough in international efforts to end the conflict.

Hamas’ top leader in Gaza confirmed there was “diplomatic movement,” while Israel’s policy-making Security Cabinet was set to discuss the proposal early today. Arab foreign ministers discussed the plan Monday night at an emergency meeting in Cairo, and U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was expected in the region today.

Egypt’s Foreign Ministry announced the three-step plan starting at 9 a.m. with a ceasefire to go into effect within 12 hours of “unconditional acceptance” by the two sides.

That would be followed by the opening of Gaza’s border crossings and talks in Cairo between the sides within two days.

Gaza’s crossings should be opened for people and goods “once the security situation becomes stable,” according to a copy of the proposal obtained

by The Associated Press.

Israel launched the offensive July 8, saying it was a response to weeks of heavy rocket fire out of Hamas-ruled Gaza. The Health Ministry in Gaza said 185 people, including dozens of civilians, have been killed,

Palestinians look at the damage to a mosque Monday following an overnight Israeli missile strike in Deir El Baleh, Gaza Strip.

Workers of the Israel Electric company take cover as a siren warning of incoming rockets is heard near the Israel-Gaza border on Monday.

and more than 1,000 people wounded. There have been no Israelis killed, although several have been wounded by rocket shrapnel.

There appeared to be no slowdown in the fighting. Hamas launched its first unmanned drone into Israeli

airspace that was shot down.

The Israeli military said 3 rockets were fired at the southern city of Eilat early this morning, lightly injuring two people. The military said it did not know who was behind the rocket fire. Previous rocket attacks on Eilat were from

radical Islamic militants in the neighboring Sinai Peninsula.

The violence followed the kidnappings and killings of three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank last month, as well as the subsequent kidnapping and killing of a Palestinian teenager in an apparent revenge attack, along with Israeli raids against Hamas militants and infrastructure in the West Bank.

Israeli officials have said the goal of the military campaign is to restore quiet to Israel’s south, which has absorbed hundreds of rocket strikes, and that any cease-fire would have to include guarantees of an extended period of calm.

Hamas officials say they will not accept “calm for calm.” The group is demanding an easing of an Israeli-Egyptian blockade that has ground Gaza’s economy to a standstill and that Israel release dozens of prisoners who were arrested in a West Bank crackdown following the abductions of the Israelis.

Egypt Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri said there is “no alternative but return to the truce” of November 2012, and added that Egypt contacted all the parties, including the Palestinian leadership and Israeli authorities in addition to Arab and international parties.

In a speech broadcast on Al-Jazeera, Ismail Haniyeh, a Hamas leader in Gaza, confirmed there was “diplomatic movement. The problem is not going back to the agreement on calm because we want this aggression to stop,” he said.

“The siege must stop and Gaza people need to live in dignity.”

In rush to cut backlog, VA makes errors

By Matthew Daly Associated Press

WASHINGTON — In a rush to cut a huge backlog of claims for disability benefits, the Department of Veterans Affairs is making payments to tens of thousands of veterans without adequate medical evidence that they deserve the benefits, the department’s inspector general’s office said Monday.

Without improvements, the VA could make unsupported payments to veterans totaling about $371 million over the next five years for claims of 100-percent disability alone, said Linda Halliday, an assistant inspector general.

The IG’s office also found widespread problems at VA regional offices in Philadelphia and Baltimore, including mail

bins full of disability claims and associated evidence that had not been electronically scanned for three years.

Spot inspections revealed that VA also made errors in one in four claims involving traumatic brain injury, Halliday told the House Veterans Affairs Committee in prepared testimony. The Associated Press obtained a copy of her testimony in advance of the panel’s hearing Monday night.

“Improved financial stewardship at the agency is needed,” Halliday said. “More attention is critical to minimize the financial risk of making inaccurate benefit payments.”

Special initiatives designed to remove older claims and speed processing of new claims are worthwhile, Halliday said, but in some cases they “have

had an adverse impact on other workload areas such as appeals management and benefits reductions.”

The VA used the hearing to claim “tremendous progress” in reducing a disability claims backlog that reached about 611,000 in March 2013. The backlog is now about 275,000 — a 55 percent decrease from the peak, said Allison Hickey, undersecretary for benefits at the VA. Last year, the Veterans Benefits Administration completed a record 1.2 million disability rating claims, Hickey said, and the agency is on track to complete more than 1.3 million rating claims this year. More than 90 percent of the claims are being processed electronically, she said.

The VA has set a goal to

process all claims within 125 days at 98 percent accuracy in 2015, but so far has fallen far short. The VA now processes most claims within 154 days at a 90-percent accuracy rate, compared with an accuracy rate of 86 percent three years ago, Hickey said. At one point, veterans had to wait an average nine to 10 months for their disability claims to be processed.

Hickey said the department has spent the past four years redesigning and streamlining the way it delivers benefits and services.

Halliday, however, said her investigators have found numerous problem in handling VA benefits, including faulty claims processing that “increases the risk of improper payments to veterans and their families.”

Bergdahl returned to regular Army duty

By Robert Burns Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Army has given Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl a desk job, ending the formal phase of his transition from Taliban prisoner to not-quiteordinary soldier, and setting the stage for Army investigators to question the Idaho native about his disappearance that led to five years in captivity.

The Army said Monday that Bergdahl has been assigned to U.S. Army North at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston in Texas.

Bergdahl has been decompressing and recuperating from the effects of captivity since his arrival there from a military base in Germany. Since he was handed over to U.S. special forces in Afghanistan on May 31, he has been debriefed for any possible intelligence he might have gleaned in his time with the Taliban. Otherwise, he has been coaxed back into a normal routine and a normal life, both physically and psychologically.

Bergdahl’s case is one of the

most extraordinary of recent times — for the length of his captivity, for his apparent decision to abandon his unit, and for the controversy triggered by the circumstances of his release.

Investigators hope to determine whether the 28-year-old is prosecuted for desertion

or faces other disciplinary action. The probe is headed

by Maj. Gen. Kenneth R. Dahl, deputy commanding general of 1st Corps at Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

Numerous other questions are lingering, including whether Bergdahl will collect the estimated $300,000 in back

pay he has accumulated over the past five years.

Bergdahl walked away from his unit after expressing misgivings about the U.S. military’s role — as well as his own — in Afghanistan. He was captured by the Taliban and held by members of the Haqqani network, an insurgent group tied to the Taliban. He was released as part of a deal in which the U.S. gave up five top Taliban commanders imprisoned at the military prisoner at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The terms of the deal sparked a political storm in Washington.

Some former members of Bergdahl’s former unit have labeled him a deserter and said some were wounded or killed looking for him. The Army has not ruled out disciplinary action against Bergdahl.

Bergdahl’s exact administrative duties at U.S. Army North were not immediately disclosed, but a Pentagon spokesman, Army Col. Steve Warren, said Bergdahl is not restricted in any way.

“He is a normal soldier now,” Warren said.

White House counsel Neil Eggleston sent a letter Monday to House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, asking him to lift to the subpoena to David Simas, director of the White House Office of Political Strategy and Outreach. But Issa’s spokeswoman said Simas was still expected to appear at Wednesday’s hearing, which will examine whether the White House political office is an abuse of taxpayer funds.

Airbus takes on Boeing with A330 Its upgraded jet will help the European plane maker compete against Boeing’s Dreamliner in the wide-body market.

By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

Airbus Group revived the fight with the Boeing Co. for the twinaisle jetliner market when it unveiled plans for an upgraded A330 on the first day of the Farnborough International Airshow.

The A330neo will fly farther on less fuel than existing models and help Airbus compete against Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner in the niche of smaller twin-aisle airplanes.

“The end result of today’s launch is that Airbus and Boeing enter a new era in widebody competition with very similar yet opposite line-ups,” SANG TAN / ASSOCIATED PRESS said analyst Scott Hamilton of Visitors watch an Airbus A350 XWB land after a demonstration flight during the Farnborough International Issaquah-based Leeham Co., in a Airshow in England on Monday. post on the company’s blog.

U.S. firms look overseas for tax bill relief

By Tom Murphy Associated Press

A growing number of U.S. companies are looking to trim their tax bills by combining operations with foreign businesses in a trend that may eventually cost the federal government billions of dollars in revenue.

Generic drugmaker Mylan Inc. said Monday it will become part of a new company organized in the Netherlands in a $5.3 billion deal to acquire some of Abbott Laboratories’ generic-drugs business. The deal is expected to lower Mylan’s tax rate to about 20 percent to 21 percent in the first full year and to the high teens after that.

The Canonsburg, Pennsylvania-company’s deal follows a path explored by several other U.S. drugmakers in recent months. AbbVie Inc. has entered talks with Shire Plc. over a roughly $53.68 billion deal that

Walgreen Co., which bills itself as “America’s premier pharmacy,” is among many companies considering combining operations with foreign businesses to trim their tax bills. These deals, called inversions, have raised concerns among some U.S. lawmakers over the potential for lost tax revenue.

would lead to a lower tax rate and a company organized on the British island of Jersey.

But drugmakers aren’t the only

companies looking overseas for better tax deals.

Last month, U.S. medical device maker Medtronic Inc.

said that it had agreed to buy Ireland-based competitor Covidien for $42.9 billion in cash and stock. The combined company would have executive offices in Ireland, which has a 12.5 percent corporate income tax rate. And drugstore chain Walgreen Co. — which bills itself as “America’s premier pharmacy” — also is considering a similar move with Swiss health and beauty retailer Alliance Boots.

These tax-lowering overseas deals, which are called inversions, have raised concerns among some U.S. lawmakers over the potential for lost tax revenue.

But business experts say U.S. companies that find the right deal have to consider inversions due to the heavy tax burden they face back home.

Citigroup to pay $7B to settle mortgage probe

By Eric Tucker Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Citigroup agreed Monday to pay $7 billion to settle a federal investigation into its handling of risky subprime mortgages, admitting to a pattern of deception that Attorney General Eric Holder said “shattered lives” and contributed to the worst financial crisis in decades.

The settlement represents a moment of reckoning for one of the country’s biggest and most significant banks, which will now be responsible for giving financial support to Americans whose lives were dismantled by the largest economic meltdown since the Great Depression.

Besides the $4 billion civil penalty, the bank will provide $2.5 billion in consumer relief to help borrowers who lost their

Holder said the settlement did not preclude the possibility of criminal prosecution for the bank or individual employees in the future.

Bombardier union strikes at Ontario plant THUNDER BAY, Ontario — About 900 unionized employees at Bombardier’s light rail plant in Thunder Bay, Ontario, are on strike after failing to reach an agreement with management about pension changes and benefit reductions.

Unifor’s national president Jerry Dias said there was “no meaningful discussion” leading up to Monday’s strike deadline. Bombardier spokesman Marc-Andre Lefebvre said the company believes it has offered Unifor employees a good contract proposal that provides for well-paid jobs.

Alibaba IPO grows The biggest IPO in the tech industry’s history just got bigger. Alibaba, China’s e-commerce giant and one of the largest Internet companies in the world, has increased its valuation to $130 billion less than a month before its initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange.

That’s about $13 billion more than the Hong Kong-based company valued itself in June in its original filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

EBay hosting Sotheby EBay will soon feature auctions from the likes of Monet, Picasso and other masters through a new partnership with auction house Sotheby’s.

The companies will offer a new live auction feature on eBay Inc.’s Web site and realtime bidding for Sotheby’s auctions that are taking place at Sotheby’s headquarters in New York.

Truck-stop chain fined $92 million Authorities say the truckstop company owned by Cleveland Browns owner Jimmy Haslam and Tennessee Gov.

Randy Tinseth, vice president of marketing for Renton-based Boeing Commercial Airplanes, questioned the ability of Airbus to deliver on the fuel-savings promise for the A330neo, according to news reports. But reaction from aerospace analysts has been positive.

purchase terms with Monarch Airlines for 30 737 MAX 8s. And Avolon, an airplane leasing company, committed to six 787-9 Dreamliners and five 737 MAX 9s.

In a Boeing news release, John Wojick, a senior vice president, said the two 737 models give Okay Airways’ fleet “market-leading efficiency, reliability and passenger comfort for many years to come.”

Some 737s could be getting less comfortable in the future, though. Boeing recently unveiled plans to offer a version of the 737 MAX 8 with seats for about 200.

Not to be outdone, Airbus has filed for patents on seats that look like bicycle saddles and would enable super-low-cost airlines to cram even more passengers in planes.

In addition to the higher rate, the United States also taxes the income companies earn overseas once they bring it back home.

and bust that triggered the Great Recession at the end of 2007. Banks, including Citigroup, minimized the risks of subprime mortgages when packaging and selling them to mutual funds, investment trusts and pensions, as well as other banks and investors.

One Citigroup trader wrote in an internal email that he “would not be surprised if half of these loans went down” and said it was “amazing that some of these loans were closed at all,” and the bank itself increased its profits and share of the market, the Justice Department said.

“They did so at the

Moses Lake in spotlight The Mitsubishi Aircraft Corp. announced at the show on Monday that it plans to do flight testing of a new regional jet, the MRJ, at Moses Lake and in Japan.

The airplane builder has reached a tentative agreement with AeroTEC, a Seattle-based testing and certification company, to help with the program, according to a news release from Mitsubishi.

The announcement said about 80 engineering jobs will be in Moses Lake for about three to five years, according to Inslee.

Mitsubishi’s decision means growth for aerospace services in Washington. It is a small part of the state’s overall aerospace industry, which

is largely focused on manufacturing and assembly.

On Friday, Inslee released Washington’s updated aerospace strategy, which emphasizes growth in aerospace subsectors such as testing and certification.

“We’re establishing infrastructure at Moses Lake that will be able to serve other companies,” Inslee said during a phone interview on Monday. “We have all these other niches that can succeed.”

Flight tests in Washington are slated to start in fall 2015, according to the company’s news release.

Mitsubishi picked Grant County International Airport at Moses Lake because it “satisfies all major requirements as a flight test center, including long runways necessary for specific flight tests, flexibility

for take-offs/landings due to no regular transport services and greater chance of fair weather,” according to the release.

The company is developing the MRJ to compete in the regional jetliner market, which has been dominated

by Canada’s Bombardier and Brazil’s Embraer.

At Farnborough, the company also announced that Florida-based Eastern Air Lines Group Inc. has placed firm orders for 20 of the MRJ90, which seats about 90 passengers, with options to buy 20 more.

Mitsubishi is also developing the MRJ70, which seats about 70 passengers.

nobody else does that,” Goldman said.

In addition to lowering a company’s tax rate, inversions also can help a company reduce its U.S. tax liability through a process known as earnings stripping. Essentially, the U.S. business takes on debt to fund a dividend for its foreign operations and deducts interest payments on that debt.

Tax lawyer Bret Wells said companies consider an inversion only if they can put together a good deal that will help grow their business. The inversion is really a secondary benefit but also a way for corporations to “vote with their feet.”

“When I can see that the other guy, my competitor, can reduce their tax bill, I want to look like them,”

said Wells, an assistant law professor at the University of Houston.

Inversions can happen if a U.S. company combines with a foreign business and shareholders of the foreign entity own at least 20 percent of the newly merged business. Legally, the foreign company might acquire the U.S. business or the two would create a new entity overseas. But the U.S.

company often maintains both its corporate headquarters and control of the company.

President Barack Obama has proposed raising the threshold for inversions on foreign entity ownership to 50 percent, with the goal of making them less attractive.

But Wells, the tax lawyer, says more comprehensive tax reform is needed.

expense of millions of ordinary Americans and investors of all types — including other financial institutions, universities and pension funds, cities and towns, and even hospitals and religious charities,” Holder said at a news conference.

The securities, which contained so-called residential mortgage-backed securities, plunged in value when the housing market collapsed in 2006 and 2007

and investors suffered billions of dollars in losses.

Those losses triggered a financial crisis that pushed the economy into the worst recession since the 1930s.

The Justice Department, which has faced criticism for not being aggressive enough in targeting financial misconduct, has in the last year taken action against some of the country’s largest banks for their roles in the meltdown.

JPMorgan Chase &

Co., the nation’s largest bank, last year agreed to pay $13 billion after an investigation into similar toxic-mortgage backed securities.

That deal included $4 billion in relief to homeowners affected by the bad loans. Bank of America Corp. has been sued for failing to disclose risks and misleading investors in its sale of mortgage-linked securities.

Justice Department officials called the $4 billion

the largest civil penalty of its kind and said it will not be tax-deductible.

Investors shrugged off the settlement, a sign that they expect Citigroup will continue to operate without much disruption.

Shares in Citi rose $1.67 — or 3.6 percent — to $48.67 because the bank beat the expectations in the market, after adjusting for the second-quarter $3.8 billion charge related to the Justice Department settlement.

Gov. Jay Inslee stumped for Washington’s aerospace industry during a flurry of high-level meetings Monday with companies interested in investing in or doing business with the state.

He met with Airbus’ top North American executive about opportunities for Washington companies in the supply chain of Boeing’s rival.

“Having the governor come into the room helps suppliers meet with higher level executives,” said Brian Bonlender, head of the state’s Department of Commerce.

Inslee is cutting his trip to Farnborough short to fly to Washington, D.C., on Wednesday for a meeting on climate change at the White House.

IN OUR VIEW | 21ST LEGISLATIVE DISTRICT, POS. 1

Retain Rep. Lillian Ortiz-Self The race for the 21st Legislative district, Position 1, brings into focus the state Supreme Court’s 2012 McCleary decision and the mandate to fully fund K-12 education. Sixty years ago, U.S. Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas wrote without irony that “Washington has made education her proudest boast.”

It’s a boast that’s grown less resonant over the years.

Rep. Lillian Ortiz-Self, who was appointed in January when Marko Liias was sent to the state Senate following Sen. Paull Shin’s resignation, has a visceral understanding of K-12 and is conditioned to see outcomes through a beenthere, pragmatic lens. A mental health counselor and educator

in the Everett School District, Ortiz-Self has worked at both Everett High and North Middle School. She’s witnessed the consequences of shredding the safety net as well as some novel approaches to ed reform.

“There should be more of us in the Legislature,” she said about K-12 educators. If OrtizSelf is elected to a full term — and The Herald Editorial Board believes she deserves to be — she’ll have her hands full with all-things-McCleary.

Ortiz-Self, who serves on the House Early Learning Committee, advocates closing corporate-tax loopholes to underwrite McCleary. According to the state Department of Revenue, 575 state tax breaks have no expiration date.

Well-heeled lobbyists labor to keep it that way.

Writing about the loophole conundrum in 2013, House Finance Committee Chairman Reuven Carlyle noted that, “Too often we jump to the conclusion that there is simply no political appetite in our state for tax reform to alleviate the weaknesses of our system for people, while simultaneously entertaining endless ‘modest’ fixes that alleviate the inefficiencies of our system on important industries.”

Ortiz-Self’s Republican opponent, Jeff Scherrer, is short on specifics beyond acknowledging that McCleary will dominate the session and that K-12 should be fully funded ahead of other

spending. The Green Party candidate, Bob Lewis, is an articulate advocate for progressive remedies to ed funding and income inequality, solutions that are unlikely to gain political traction outside of Sweden or Seattle (a 5-10 percent capital gains excise tax, for example, and the $15 minimum wage). That said, Lewis and Ortiz-Self are both sensitized to the needs of low-income district residents.

The 21st, which includes Mukilteo and portions of Edmonds and Everett, as well as areas north of Lynnwood, is an urban-suburban cross-section. Ortiz-Self demonstrates the talent and leadership to represent all the citizens of the 21st. She should be retained.

has trickled down, it’s that; how to maximize profits with the costs borne by labor and the environment. Unquestionably capitalism is king in America, has even somehow been anointed. Strange the things some have anointed in God’s name, things He wouldn’t touch with Abraham’s staff, but I digress.

Point to all this, folks, is that when we as a society sit back and allow a few zealots and greedy profit-driven individuals to commandeer as they see fit then it’s no small wonder that more Mr. Walsh’s haven’t climbed out of the woodwork rationalizing; hey they’re getting theirs, why shouldn’t I? We all hope he chokes on it, but actually, wasn’t he only following the status quo of maximizing profits?

With the wealth imbalance today it’s not a hard leap to see the motives of those controlling the marketplace, used here as an all-encompassing term, and those of Walsh are the same; greed. Isn’t there something in the scriptures about things like greed, for those so inclined?

to be proud of.

Of course, that’s just my opinion.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■PUGET SOUND

Wrong to let Boeing set rules I’m writing to applaud the commentary in Sunday’s Viewpoints, “Saving the sea that feeds us.” Mr. Parks’ words are an inspiration. He pointed out the devastation that is happening to Puget Sound, the rivers, and the contamination from many things that threaten the health of our waters, our fish and our lives.

I don’t understand why it’s so hard for the politicians to put our lives before any political agenda. Why does Boeing and all the other businesses dumping chemical garbage into our water systems and the Puget Sound have so much “power” to say: “If you don’t let us alone with what we do with our pollutants, (and to heck with the health of the public by the way), then we will withdraw from doing business in the state”?

Big deal! I don’t want you here polluting our water, land, and lives just because you think you’ve got the cajones to suggest your bottom line is more important than the lives of the people, fauna, flora and our waters. You don’t belong here. Period!

■■FIREWORKS

Please keep our veterans in mind I commend Mr. Joe Stone’s July 2 guest commentary, “Fireworks make life tough for veterans.” I know this must have been hard for him to write. So many of our veterans suffer from PTSD, and this time of year only heightens the intensity they all feel because of the loud booms and bangs from the fireworks. The fireworks seem to start days prior to the Fourth of July and go on for days afterward. Because of these loud noises their minds and bodies are brought back to the war zones they have been in. My late husband was a Vietnam vet and any time there was a sudden loud bang he would jump and his heart would race. This never really got any better as time passed.

I ask people to please think about our veterans before lighting off any fireworks (whether they are safe and sane, or illegal ones). There are so many places to go to on the Fourth to view fireworks displays and to celebrate this wonderful holiday. Everett’s Daily Herald has listed them all for all communities in Snohomish County. Thank you and God Bless America!

They’re getting theirs, aren’t they?

Isn’t the roadway hijacking in Oso, like the racial slurs reported on a few months ago, a barometer of our society today? Oh, everybody‘s up in arms and should be when such greed and discrimination is exposed for all to see, but astounded?

All across this country we see those who are fighting for their right to discriminate against those who don’t believe as they do, or are just plain different and that money is the reigning power, all embolden no less by our own Supreme Court which this author refers to as the “jive five.” How do you justify something that’s simply just wrong, not to mention illegal?

Don’t the oil giants/speculators use every world event or vacation time they can to further raise the price of gas?

Haven’t the major corporations, by example, increased the shift in allegiance to owners/ceos/stockholders than any to the people who produce/buy the products they sell, all in the name of increased profits? If anything

Set aspirations higher than pot The other morning on Channel 4, a man was expounding on what he thought was the historicmaking legalization of over-the-counter sales of “pot,” and how very proud we all should be as forerunners in our state of Washington.

The lines of excited and expectant purchasers put me in mind of the days of a new Cabbage Patch doll, or Harry Potter movie.

■■BAD SMELL

Most distinctive stink is back One cannot convince me that the sour, garbage-like odor, tinged with a hint of mulch, that has arrived in conjunction with our spell of hot weather, isn’t coming from the composting operation. The source of this odor is as much in question as is identifying the real killer of Nicole Simpson.

Anyone who watches legal dramas on “Masterpiece Mystery” can tell you that it isn’t so much about the actual truth that counts, but more about who can most artfully massage the facts to form their own version of the truth.

That is what is going on here.

Albeit the odor isn’t as bad as it has been in the past, but those who can put two and two together in the purest mathematical sense know the real source. What really stinks here is the how the sniffer results, both human and technological, have been parsed to come to this total non-conclusion.

Excuse me! Most of us know the smell of sewage vs. the odor of decaying groceries!

GOP rants, but offers no answers

W

ASHINGTON — Apparently there’s a contest among Republicans to see who can be more shameless and irresponsible in criticizing President Obama’s foreign policy. So far, Chris Christie is winning.

The New Jersey governor alleged Saturday that “the unrest you see in the Middle East is caused in some measure — not completely, but in some measure — by the fact that this president has not acted in a decisive, consistent way.”

If you disregard the rantings of unserious provocateurs such as Sarah Palin, Christie’s attack represents a new low. He accuses the president of the United States of actually being responsible “in some measure” for violence between Israelis and Palestinians, Sunnis and Shiites, dictators and rebels — conflicts and antagonisms that began, I seem to recall, well before Obama took office in January 2009.

One might assume that Christie offered EUGENE ROBINSON specific ideas about what Obama should be doing differently. Nope.

The president should be “trying to bring stability to that region by having America be a forceful voice in favor of a democracy like Israel and be condemning, in the strongest terms and in actions, the things that are being done by Hamas against Israel.” All of which Obama has already done.

Asked whether Obama should take some kind of military action in the region, Christie answered, “I’m not going to give opinions on that. I’m not the president.”

Very helpful, Governor. Please return to your intensive study of traffic patterns on the George Washington Bridge.

Other Republicans who, like Christie, are running for president offer equally vague and useless criticisms of Obama’s policies in the Middle East and around the world. Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who’s going for the bookish intellectual look these days — he has started wearing glasses and stopped wearing cowboy boots — wrote an op-ed in The Washington Post accusing Obama of “confused leadership and passivity” that “enabled groups such as the Islamic State to grow.”

What exactly, in Perry’s view, did Obama do wrong? We’ll never know, I guess, because “the window to shape events for the better passed years ago.”

It would have been helpful had Perry let us know at the time he saw that window passing, or perhaps closing, or something.

Perry does suggest there is still time for the United States to provide “meaningful assistance” in Iraq and Syria, including “intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance sharing and airstrikes.” But he neglects to specify whom we should meaningfully assist. One of the alsoran rebel groups in Syria, the sectarian Shiite-dominated government in Iraq, the Islamic theocracy in Iran ...

In fairness, Perry’s prime target wasn’t Obama. He was aiming at Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, whose “isolationist” policies Perry sees as a potentially grave threat to our national security. The fact that Paul also poses a potentially grave threat to Perry’s presidential ambitions — he leads most polls for the GOP nomination — is pure coincidence, I’m sure.

Paul responded with an op-ed in Politico, saying of Perry that “apparently his new glasses haven’t altered his perception of the world, or allowed him to see it any more clearly.” He notes that during the 2012 campaign, Perry advocated sending troops “back into Iraq” to counter the growing influence of Iran — but now seems to advocate helping Iran against the Islamic State extremists.

In the Politico piece, Paul refrains from gratuitous criticism of Obama. But in a National Review essay, Paul blasted the White House for urging Israel to show “restraint” in responding to the kidnapping and murder of three Israeli teenagers.

Paul called for a cutoff of U.S. aid to the Palestinian Authority. He should be smart enough to understand that this would only strengthen the position of Hamas.

But perhaps his real aim is to dispel the notion that he is insufficiently pro-Israel.

The Republican critique of Obama’s foreign policy that has achieved the most traction — undeservedly so, in my view — comes from a non-candidate: Mitt Romney. The basic thrust: “I told you so.”

But what was Romney so right about, except the blindingly obvious? That a large, permanent U.S. residual force in Iraq could have prevented the gains by the Islamic State? Of course, but the American public didn’t support keeping troops there and the Iraqi government said no. That it would be better if the “moderate” rebels were winning in Syria? Certainly, but shaping the outcome of that multi-sided civil war would require a robust intervention.

People who see easy options really should have their eyes checked.

Real estate agent Charlotte Maulsby walks through a house she is selling on Hat Island on Thursday.

asking prices of $149,000 to $560,000, Maulsby said.

Some undeveloped lots can be had for less than $10,000.

Jon Rypdahl, another island Realtor who works with his wife, Karen, said there are more homes for sale now than at any time during the past 25 years.

“These houses that they’re selling out here for $250,000 would cost you a million dollars anywhere else, with the views,” Rypdahl said. “It just amazes me that more people don’t discover this place.”

The market for vacation

homes typically lags the market for primary residences, he explains.

Zyskowski, a 43-yearold whose main home is in Maltby, counts himself among the relative newcomers.

He, his wife, Gina, and now 10-year-old son, Mickey, have had their beach home since 2007.

“Now you’re starting to see more people from Microsoft, Amazon and Boeing having their second homes here,” he said.

Long-timers abound as well.

“It’s like running a small municipality,” said Mike Zyskowski, vice president of the island’s board of directors.

There’s also a volunteer fire department and a reverse-osmosis plant to back up the island’s supply of well water.

A new $4 million renovation to the island’s marina is nearing completion after two years of work. It’s expected to increase the island’s boat traffic.

The enlarged marina has 127 slips, up from 84.

They now can accommodate boats of up to 62 feet, compared to 40 before.

Members of area yacht clubs with reciprocal agreements can use it for a fee.

About 40 people are thought to live on the island year-round. Snohomish County lists 57 people who have been actively voting from addresses there.

The island is in the midst of a population shift as properties change hands.

Tulalip: ‘Much more efficient use of resources we have’ From Page A1

While the Tulalip Tribes have more than 4,000 registered members, the majority of people who live on their reservation are not Native American.

Tribal courts can only impose maximum sentences of three years in jail, which means the worst domestic violence cases wind up in the hands of federal prosecutors who often don’t have the resources to take on

any but the most serious cases.

In testimony before the U.S. Senate last year, Tulalip Tribal Court Chief Judge Theresa Pouley noted that while the Tulalip Tribal Court prosecuted 493 criminal cases in 2006, the U.S. Department of Justice’s own statistics showed federal prosecutors brought just 606 cases that year in all of Indian Country, comprising more than 562 tribes.

“This number is

unacceptable in the face of the staggering statistics of violent crime in Indian Country,” Pouley said in her statement to the Senate.

Hayden has worked for the Tulalip Tribes since August 2012. She’d earlier led the domestic violence unit for the Seattle city attorney’s office.

“I think, in addition to having the support of the members of the U.S. Attorney’s office and FBI, I see part of my role as bringing

the values of the tribe, of Indian Country, to them, too,” Hayden said.

If the Tulalip community is better served by a case being tried in Tribal Court, Hayden’s new role makes that a possibility.

Likewise, in a serious case such as murder, which needs to be tried in federal court to ensure a just sentence, Hayden’s new status allows her to appear in federal court on behalf of the U.S., she said.

“I think it’s a much more

efficient use of resources we have,” Hayden said.

The other two tribes taking part in the pilot program are the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon and the Pascua Yaqui Tribe in Arizona. The program will become available to all other qualifying tribes in 2015.

“The Tulalips are one of the handful of tribes in this country with a robust enough judicial system to qualify for the

program,” said Jenny Durkan, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington.

Durkan added that Hayden’s role in the tribal court system is also an opportunity to take a more holistic approach to crime in Indian Country because she can bring counsel and a tribal perspective that federal prosecutors might not have.

Why bad habits can kill

S

cientists suspect that inflammation fuels many chronic ailments that plague us. Heart attacks, cancer, diabetes and Alzheimer’s disease are some of the conditions linked to chronic inflammation.

An acute inflammatory response with redness, heat or swelling is necessary for your body to fight an infection or repair an injury. But after the infection or injury is gone, an immune-system that doesn’t turn off can slowly and silently wreak long-term harmful effects inside your body.

This could result in a health problem such as high blood pressure, arthritis, asthma, allergies, depression, gum disease, osteoporosis, psoriasis, multiple sclerosis, or even premature aging, according to scientists who study chronic inflammation.

Based on the evidence, here are steps you can take to guard against the damaging effects of persistent inflammation.

By Kimberly Garrison • Philadelphia Daily News

E

verybody knows that in order to accomplish something, be it big or small, you must set a goal. It doesn’t matter if the goal is to lose 10 pounds, to eat healthier or to work out consistently.

Although we probably all agree that goal-setting is necessary, the real problem is not setting the goal, but sticking with it.

Talk is cheap, and if you really want to achieve your goals this summer, fitness or otherwise, you really need a plan.

Factors in inflammation Many of the lifestyle habits prevalent in our culture put us at risk for chronic inflammation. We eat too much, don’t exercise enough, and live busy lives with an overabundance of stress. Each of these factors can stimulate the body to produce higher levels of inflammatory substances, research indicates. Persistent infections, smoking, excessive alcohol, and exposure to toxic chemicals and air pollution are other culprits that frequently trigger inflammation.

On the other hand, healthy lifestyle habits can help reduce your risk for excessive inflammation and chronic disease. Taking some basic steps is often the most effective way to get started living a more anti-inflammatory lifestyle.

To help you get it right this summer, here are my seven habits of highly fit people.

Thinkstock

1. Set a goal

your goal. If you stay committed to your commitments, you can safely lose 20 pounds in 10 weeks. If you want to improve your muscle tone and strength, give yourself a goal like achieving 10 perfect push-ups in eight weeks, and so on. Otherwise you are just wishing for results as opposed to planning and tracking your success. A wish requires no action on your part, but a plan does.

Similar to a business metric, you must set quantifiable fitness and health goals. For example, if your cholesterol is 250, give yourself the goal of getting it down to 200 by your next checkup, as opposed to just wishing that number would go down. Take concrete steps, like limiting or eliminating your consumption of high-cholesterol foods, like butter, cheese, eggs and meat.

If weight loss is also a goal, commit to a number, let’s say 20 pounds, and figure out how many weeks or months it will take you to safely reach

habits of highly fit people

Dr. Elizabeth smoots

Make exercise a habit.

Studies show that regular physical activity helps to tone down inflammation.

The greatest benefit comes from moderate exercise like walking or cycling for a long period of time. First consult your doctor if you’re unaccustomed to exercise. Then gradually work up to 30 to 60 minutes of physical activity on most days of the week.

Maintain a healthy weight. Carrying extra pounds, especially around the abdomen, encourages the body to produce greater amounts of inflammatory molecules. That’s why abdominal obesity is linked to heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers, according to recent research.

Manage inflammatory conditions. If you already have an inflammatory disorder such as arthritis, psoriasis, or asthma, work closely with your doctor to control it. Continuing inflammation may put you at risk

single thing you would like to accomplish to improve your health, diet and workouts. You are far more likely to reach your goals if you write them down.

3. Avoid portion distortion Many people mistakenly think that working out is a license to eat not only whatever they want, but also unlimited quantities. Nothing could be further from the truth. With or without exercise, if you consume more calories than you burn each day you will gain weight. If

you’re aiming for a sixpack, guess what — it starts in the kitchen, baby. At the minimum, diet is 80 percent of the equation and exercise is 20 percent but you still have to do both. There are no shortcuts, and no amount of exercise can replace poor nutrition.

4. Make fitness a priority Who has time to exercise? With juggling career and family, nobody has time for fitness, right? Wrong!

These days everyone is See fit, Page B2

Feasting on popcorn trivia — hold the butter

S

o my sis-in-law and I are standing in line for popcorn at the movie.

“What size do you want?” asks the young man behind the counter.

“I’ll have a small,” says Molly.

“With butter.”

“I’ll have a medium,” says me, before I realize that medium — in movie theater language — means, “Oh, my gosh that’s big.”

“Without butter,” I add virtuously.

So how many calories did we devour while rocking to the Jersey Boys? According to the Popcorn Board, www.popcorn. org, 1 cup of oil-popped popcorn (like we get at the movies) has about 55 calories. And I’m sure I gulped down close to 300 calories worth.

“Lightly” buttered popcorn contains about 133 calories per cup. Which is why a small bag is a great idea.

movies get started? A story is told about a banker in Oklahoma who lost his fortune. So he bought a popcorn machine and started a business in a store near a movie theater. The rest, as they say, is popcorn history.

Here are some other facts from the Popcorn Board about my favorite movie snack: ■■Popcorn has been around for more than 4,000 years. The oldest ears of popcorn on record were discovered in a bat cave in New

Mexico in 1948 and 1950.

■■The average American eats 51 quarts (almost 13 gallons) of popcorn each year, hopefully not all at the same movie.

■■Popcorn is a whole grain.

That means we eat the entire grain kernel — bran, germ and endosperm (the fluffy white part). In fact, 3 cups of popped popcorn qualifies as a serving of a whole grain. Health benefits

Fit: Make the most of your workouts Summer stress can make for sleepless nights From Page B1

sleep-deprived and working 60 or more hours a week. At least, those are some of the excuses people give for not exercising. If you plan to get fit you must make fitness a priority and plan a daily date at the gym, your basement or bedroom for a workout. Also, I’ll let you in on another little secret: You’re more likely to get it in if you do it in the morning.

The later it gets in the day, the more likely you’ll blow off your exercise routine.

Besides, when you prioritize your fitness first, you

are making an investment in your most significant asset — you.

5. Follow the Boy Scouts “Be Prepared.” Preparation is 90 percent of your success. Get organized, prepare your meals, buy your gear, sneakers, gym bag, toiletry items, etc. In short, leave no room for failure or excuses. Buy what you need, prepare the night before, pack your lunch and leave your gym bag at the front door.

6. Exercise effectively Are you exercising on a regular basis, say, three to four times a week, but still

not getting the results you want? If so, then you must ask yourself: How effective is my exercise routine, or what’s up with my diet?

It’s not enough to simply go through the motions, you want to be sure you are exercising and eating correctly, otherwise you could be getting diminishing returns. If you are not getting the results you want, then it is likely time to increase either the speed, length or the intensity of your training program, and/ or to shake up your diet.

So, look at your routine and decide which training variables you need to change.

7. Set realistic goals Don’t expect to lose 50 pounds in five weeks or expect to look like an elite athlete after only four weeks of training. Losing one to two pounds a week is not just acceptable, but a rather lofty goal. Two pounds is the equivalent of 7,000 calories, and that’s no joke. Focus on the tangibles, like preparing healthy meals, getting stronger, increasing stamina, getting more muscle and losing body fat. Looking good and feeling great are the rewards for your efforts. It’s a lifestyle, and what you put in is what you’ll get out.

for other closely related conditions. For instance, people with autoimmune disorders like rheumatoid arthritis or lupus have an increased risk for coronary heart disease. Why? The underlying mechanism of both conditions is chronic inflammation.

Don’t let infections linger. Consult with your doctor about serious or persistent infections, which if left unchecked

are associated with at least 3 servings of whole grains each day.

■ Not all corn “pops.” Popcorn is a particular type of maize (corn) with a hull just

can cause chronic inflammation. Floss every day to avoid gum disease and regularly see your dentist.

Annually, get a flu shot.

And talk to your doctor about preventive vaccines for pneumonia, hepatitis B and, human papilloma virus (the cause of several types of cancer).

Avoid toxins and irritants. Inhaling tobacco smoke, toxic fumes, or air pollution can inflame your lungs. Excess sun exposure can cause aging or cancer

of the skin. Excess alcohol increases the risk of hepatitis or certain cancers.

And eating charred meat may contribute to cancer or inflammation of the prostate.

Practice stress reduction. Research indicates that stress, anger, hostility, anxiety and depression all stimulate the body to release more inflammatory compounds. So try to calm down with a relaxation technique such as meditation, breath work, yoga, tai

chi, hypnosis, or writing in a journal.

the right thickness to burst open when it gets hot, says the Popcorn Board.

■ Water makes popcorn pop. Within each kernel is a small drop of water enclosed by a small circle of starch. When heated, the water droplet expands and builds pressure, causing the corn starch to burst out of its hull. As it explodes, steam is released, blowing

up the starch to 40 or 50 times its original size.

■ And now I know why movie theater popcorn is so crisp. Those loose lids on the big poppers allow steam to escape as the corn pops so it does not get soggy. And this of course also shoots that enticing aroma into the air that causes cash to disappear from the wallet.

Someone has estimated

how many popped kernels it would take to make a trail of popcorn from New York City to Los Angeles. Are you kidding? They’d never get past the movie houses.

Summer is supposed to be a carefree time of year, with long, sunny days and breezy, sit-on-the-frontporch evenings.

Maybe not. In an online article in Prevention magazine, Shannon Rosenberg reports on a survey in which one-third of Americans described themselves as under more stress during summer than at any other time of year.

Apparently, trying to have too much fun kept them up at night.

“People associate summer with recuperating and having more time on their hands,” Uli Gal-Oz, chief executive of SleepRate, a company based in California and Israel whose smartphone app offers help to the sleepless, says in the article.

But, he says, “because the days are longer, people try to do more and sleep less.”

The online SleepRate survey found that nearly half of the respondents said summer social events

And of course parents have added burdens, with summer interrupting school and day-care schedules, requiring ever more inventive planning. Hot weather can also affect sleep, with 80 percent saying they sleep better in cool weather.

And don’t get us started on vacations that bring on jet lag.

Lynnwood man advances to next round on ‘Dance’

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

Lynnwood’s Casey Askew was in the bottom six contestants on last week’s episode of Fox TV’s “So You Think You Can Dance.”

Askew, 19, made it through, however, and he continues on this week as part of this season’s top 18 dancers. The show airs at 8 p.m.

Wednesdays on Channel 13.

Askew’s family, especially his mother and father Lisa and Dale Askew, have been on hand in Los Angeles to watch the show being taped.

“Casey’s having quite a ride. He says it’s the most difficult thing of his life thus far,” Lisa Askew said.

“But he is so passionate about dance. He’s having a good time.”

Best girlfriend choice is No. 3: neither

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: I’m dating two different women.

One lives near me in Virginia and one is on the other coast. They both know about the other but neither of them likes it. Virginia girl wants an exclusive relationship. West Coast girl doesn’t seem to care.

I know deep down that Virginia girl is better for me. She’s almost perfect intellectually, spiritually, interest-wise, except I have very little physical attraction to her. On the other hand, the chemistry with West Coast girl is off the charts.

As long as they both know about each other, is it OK to go on like this for a while? I don’t want to hurt either one of them but I don’t want to choose right now. I hate that society puts such pressure on us to be in monogamous relationships. And not that it matters, but I’m not a 20-something guy. I’m an older woman. Does that change the dynamic?

— Compatible?

No, because the dynamic is that you’re with two wrong people instead of two potentially right ones.

This is still not about choosing, though — it’s about how long you’re willing to find happiness in two people (who provide it grudgingly, it seems) because neither

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT one really fits.

You’ve been honest, so I can argue that you don’t need to choose for their sakes; they can act in their own interests. If you’d prefer monogamy, then that’s an argument for ending this arrangement for your own sake.

Note, I didn’t say “an argument for choosing”: Virginia girl is not “better for me,” she’s a dead-end street because you obviously value chemistry. West Coast girl is not “better,” either, unless you value her companionship as much as you do her passion. Thinking in either-or terms is so needlessly limiting. There are more than two women on earth.

Re: Compatibility: I have a related question. I’m in my late 30s, single and still looking for a partner. I’ve noticed a pattern: The people I feel most alive around and most enjoy are

You haven’t said anything about personalities, just available and un-. If that indeed is the only difference, then I’d guess you only fully let your guard down around people you already know you can’t have. As in, there’s no risk of getting rejected for who you are when they’ve already said no based on who they are.

So, finding a partner is possible, but you’ll have to outsmart yourself. Maybe awareness of this problem is all you need to preempt it, but if not, be ready with Plan B: Don’t judge these “constant, reliable” people until you’ve had time to get as comfortable around them as you are with the ones you know you can’t have.

On the other hand are the people I meet who are constant and reliable, which I value, but feel less alive around. Is it unrealistic for me to think I can find a partner someday who is constant and available, but whom I also feel really alive around? Am I missing something here?

Son who idolizes dad must be told his crime

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Abby: I am a mother of four. My oldest son, “Jeff,” is from a previous marriage. My ex was convicted of child molestation, involving his daughter from a previous relationship.

Jeff is now 11. He has had very few unsupervised visitations with his dad over the last few years and is always talking about how great a guy he is. I have tried to explain that his father has done “inappropriate things” that got him in trouble with the law, which is why he can’t have contact with his sister.

Jeff always tells me about how he wants to go live with his dad when he’s 18.

Being “Big Bad Mama” is no fun. The once-a-year gifts from his father trump any nice things my husband or I provide for Jeff. How can I explain to my son that I am only looking out for his best interests, and that he will never live with his dad? — Big Bad Mama In Georgia Dear Mama: I don’t know how mature your son is, but most 11-year-old boys idolize their fathers. Jeff has his father on a pedestal because he sees him only rarely, and has no concept of what the reality of living with him would be.

At some point your son will need to know EXACTLY what his father did that got him into trouble — without your glossing over it using the vague description of “inappropriate behavior.”

When that conversation happens, he should already understand the concept of boundaries and what taking advantage of a child really means.

I would consult a licensed psychotherapist or social worker for input before trying to explain this to Jeff. However, if your son still wants to live with his birth father when he’s 18, I don’t think there

RIP HAYWIRE

DEAR ABBY is anything you can do to prevent it.

Dear Abby: I raised my children to stay with me when we were in a store.

They didn’t touch things displayed on the shelves because the items were not theirs and we weren’t going to purchase them. We didn’t have cellphones when my children grew up. However, even now I never remove mine from my purse while I’m in a store.

Is there a nice way to tell other shoppers to put their phones away and pay attention to their children while shopping, and suggest that it might not be safe for their kids to run through the aisles or roll canned goods down them?

— Meme In The West Dear Meme: No, I don’t think there is. You appear to be part of a generation that had the time (or took the time) to teach these things to their kids.

I agree that children should be taught to respect the property of others and to ask before touching it. I also agree that leaving items in an aisle could be dangerous to shoppers whose attention may be fixed on the store shelves instead of the floor.

But because so many parents today seem to have “forgotten” to convey these important lessons, then caveat emptor — but in this case, let the shopper beware.

Everyone has blind spots.

Dummy next led a club, but East took the ace and led a fourth heart. South ruffed, but West threw his last club, and South had to fail.

South had a blind spot. He needs a club trick to make the slam and can guess well to lead a club from dummy at Trick Three. If East wins to lead a trump, South gets a second club trick. If East ducks, South crossruffs his way home.

West also had a blind spot.

North’s bidding promised short spades, so South might need ruffs in dummy. If West

DAILY QUESTION You hold: ♠ 5 ♥ A 10 8 7 2 ◆ A Q 7 ♣ K 10 4 3. Your partner opens one spade, you respond two hearts and he bids three clubs. What do you say?

ANSWER: Partner’s three clubs is a “high reverse” and shows substantial strength.

With a minimum such as A Q 7 6 4, 3, K 5 2, A J 7 6, he would rebid two spades. Slam is likely. You have options: a 4NT Blackwood bid, a bid of three diamonds followed by club support or (my choice) a forcing raise to four clubs.

Felix starts for AL in All-Star Game Pitcher Hernandez is one of 4 Mariners on AL squad >>

By Andy Bixler The News Tribune

PAUL SANCYA / ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Mariners’ Felix Hernandez will be the first Venezuelan-born pitcher to start an All-Star game.

For the first time since 2003, the Seattle Mariners are sending four players to the All-Star Game.

More importantly, they are sending the American League’s starting pitcher, Felix Hernandez.

Hernandez was picked to start Tuesday’s game at Target Field

by AL manager John Farrell of the Boston Red Sox. Hernandez is the second Mariners pitcher to start the Midsummer Classic, following Randy Johnson in 1995 and 1997.

“It’s an honor,” Hernandez said in a press conference Monday.

It’s the fifth consecutive time

Hernandez, 27, has been an AllStar. He’s pitched two scoreless innings for the AL, and allowed one hit.

Hernandez has never been better at this point in the season, posting the lowest earned run average (2.11, best in the AL and second in the major leagues behind the 1.83 of National League starter Adam Wainwright of St. Louis.) and most wins (11-2) of his career.

Eleven-year-old Cobey Carper of Gold Bar rides his 85cc motorcycle at a March motocross race at the Horn Rapids Motorsports Complex in Richland.

One of the ‘best of the best’ 11-year-old Cobey Carper of Gold Bar, who started riding motorcycles at the age of 18 months, will compete in the prestigious American Motorcyclist Association National Championships this summer.

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

GOLD BAR — Because he liked motorcycles, Bob and Nel Lisa Carper let their son Cobey begin riding as a young boy. His first bike was a Yamaha PW50, complete with homemade training wheels.

Cobey Carper was 18 months old at the time. He learned to ride a motorcycle eight months after he learned to walk.

“It’s what he wanted to do,” his

mother said.

Ten years later, not much has changed for Cobey Carper, now 11 and a recent fifth-grade graduate of Gold Bar Elementary School. He still loves riding, and he often goes out to practice on a motocross track carved through the trees on property behind the family home.

He also loves competing, and later this month he will head to the prestigious American Motorcyclist Association National Championships at the Loretta

Lynn Ranch in Hurricane Mills, Tenn.

The championships, the biggest amateur motocross event in the country, will Cobey Carper bring together some 1,400 racers of all ages, including some as young as 4.

Cobey Carper will compete in the 65cc Mod class against 41 other kids ages 7-11, and he will be one

of just four riders from Washington at the event.

“It’s very exciting,” he said with a shy smile.

He started in the sport because his father, Bob Carper, used to ride recreationally, though he also rode competitively for two years. Nel Lisa Carper would also ride for fun and as a small child Cobey would go along with his parents in a backpack.

Four years later he began competing in an arenacross series at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds

in Monroe. He won right from the start and has never let up, including eight state championships in several classes and age groups over the years. He has more trophies than the family has wall space in the home.

“When he was real little, some of those trophies were bigger than he was,” his mother said.

Her son succeeds, she went on, because he has “a determination and a drive that I’ve never seen See CARPER, Page C4

STORM | Update TODAY’S GAME Connecticut at Seattle Noon, KeyArena TV: LiveWell (cable) Radio: None

Scouting Report The Sun make their one and only regular-season visit to Seattle this afternoon. Connecticut defeated Seattle 71-59 on May 23 in the only other meeting between the two teams this year. It was the third of three consecutive losses for the Storm to open the season.

Both teams come into today’s matchup in similar positions. At 9-13, the Sun currently hold the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference, a half game ahead of Chicago. Seattle’s 9-14 record has it in the fifth spot in the Western Conference, 1½ games behind Los Angeles. Four teams from each conference qualify for the WNBA playoffs.

Today’s game isn’t likely to be a highscoring affair. Both teams come into the game ranked in the lower third of the league in points per game. The Sun rank ninth at 75.09 points per game and the Storm are last in the league at 70.57.

The safer bet is a defensive battle.

The Storm rank second in the league in points allowed (74.48) and the Sun are sixth (77.64).

The Sun’s most consistent offensive option has been rookie forward Chiney Ogwumike, the sister of Los Angeles forward Nneka Ogwumike. The Sun used the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft to select Ogwumike, a former Stanford star, and she hasn’t disappointed, averaging 15.3 points and 8.5 rebounds per game.

N. Everett baseball team wins state title Herald news service As the Washington state champion, the North Everett Little League Intermediate baseball team (ages 11-13) is headed to Nogales, Ariz., this week for the West Regional tournament.

North Everett faces Montana on Thursday, Hawaii on Friday, Arizona on Saturday and Northern California on Monday. From there, advancement depends on the team’s record in the four poolplay games.

During the regular season, North Everett posted a 23-2 record and outscored its opponents 319-56. The 10 teams in North Everett’s league represent Little League organizations from District 1, which covers Snohomish County.

North Everett won the district tournament, defeating Mill Creek for the championship, then breezed through the state tournament in Snohomish with one-sided wins over Issaquah (121), Chinook/Soundview (10-1), West Seattle (20-0) and West Seattle again in the title game (14-3).

Nibali regains yellow jersey Alberto Contador drops out after a crash leaves him with a fractured shin.

Associated Press P L A N C H E R- L E S - M I N E S, France — Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali stamped his dominance on the Tour de France by winning Stage 10 in the Vosges mountains on Monday — shortly after his biggest rival for the title, two-time champion Alberto Contador, crashed out with a fractured shin after a high-speed spill.

Nibali, the Astana team leader, also regained the overall lead from France’s Tony Gallopin — who had taken the leader’s yellow jersey off him a day earlier — in the 100-mile trek from the eastern city of Mulhouse to a super-steep uphill finish at La Planche des Belles Filles.

With a final burst of speed in the last 1.2 miles, Nibali overtook breakaway rider Joaquim Rodriguez. The Spaniard, heaving hard as Nibali overtook him, caught back up briefly but then the Italian accelerated brutally with 700 meters to go.

Nibali crossed the finish line 15 seconds ahead of France’s Thibault Pinot in second and Spain’s Alejandro Valverde in third, another five seconds back.

The Italian recovers the yellow jersey that he wore for seven days after he won the Tour’s second stage in the hills of Yorkshire in northern England.

“My legs felt good. I knew the last three kilometers were the toughest, and that’s when I accelerated,” Nibali said. “I thought Rodriguez would follow but he seemed to have trouble.”

With Contador out, Nibali is now the favorite to win his first Tour. He has won the Italian Giro and the Spanish Vuelta — cycling’s other “Grand Tours” along with the French race. Overall, he leads Richie Porte of Australia by nearly 2 minutes, 23 seconds, and Valverde, who is third, 2:47 back.

A string of crash injuries has meant that the Tour will have a first-time winner this year.

Monday at a Glance

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Vincenzo Nibali of Italy celebrates on the podium Monday after putting on the yellow jersey that signifies the overall leader.

31-year-old Spaniard with Tinkoff-Saxo Bank, follows that of defending champion Chris Froome of Britain who crashed out in the fifth stage. Before the race began, they were considered the favorites. Andy Schleck, the 2010 Tour winner, dropped out before Stage 4 following a crash injury a day earlier, though the Luxembourg rider said before the race that he wasn’t in good enough shape to contend this year.

According to his spokesman, Contador said he wasn’t exactly sure what caused the crash — which happened while he was speeding downhill at about 40 mph about halfway through the stage. Contador began the stage in ninth place overall — 4 minutes, 8 seconds back of Gallopin.

“He explained to me just a few minutes ago that he (hit) a stone or a hole in the road or something — and he crashed,” Contador spokesman Jacinto Vidarte said.

“He couldn’t do anything about it.”

TV images showed thick streams of blood pouring from Contador’s right knee after the crash, his hip was scraped up, and the back of his jersey torn. Team director Bjarne Riis rushed over and bandaged the knee.

Contador then sat back down on the grass bank and changed his

left shoe as riders weaved through the narrow gap between him and his bicycle. After several minutes, he got back in the saddle of a new bike, and three teammates who had dropped back escorted him to try to make up lost time as the peloton pulled away up the Col du Platzerwaswel mountain pass.

The Spaniard rode for about half an hour, clearly in pain, and finally stopped, got off, wiped his eyes and climbed into a team car.

Philippe Mauduit, a team sporting director, said initial X-rays showed a Contador suffered a fractured shin.

Nibali said he was riding next to Contador, and almost went down himself.

“I feared that the Tour might be over for me too,” the Italian said.

“There were a lot of risks today, and I’m really sorry for Alberto Contador. I was right behind him and luckily I was able to avoid him. It was on a descent. The road wasn’t in great condition.”

In the district title game, Pacific trailed 6-2 in the sixth and final inning, but rallied for 11 runs, then held on for a 13-10 victory.

The Pacific team is led by manager Robley Corsi, Jr., and assistant coaches Eric Grant, Ross Kruse and Sean Durbin.

The All-Star players are Robley Corsi III, Read Carr, Tygan Duncan, Tyler Durbin, Ben Grant, Nate King, Logan Kruse, Ian Michael, Tai Starchman, Karsen Tjarneberg, Matthew Turcotte, Mason Vaughn and Colton Walsh.

USA Basketball announces national team roster Associated Press Coach Mike Krzyzewski hopes Derrick Rose’s NBA comeback begins in a USA uniform.

Rose and four returnees from the 2012 Olympic men’s basketball champions were among the 19 players named Monday to this summer’s U.S. national team roster.

Kevin Durant, Kevin Love, James Harden and Anthony Davis were the four holdovers from London, and there were new additions of Toronto Raptors star DeMar DeRozan and Chandler Parsons, who is leaving Houston for Dallas.

Players report to training camp this month in Las Vegas, where

Rose will try to show he’s recovered from his latest knee surgery.

“We’d like to see him play like the Derrick of old, because he’s one of the best players in the world, an MVP in the NBA,” Krzyzewski said during a conference call. “What we’ve heard is that he’s in great shape.”

The rest of the roster: Stephen Curry and former Washington State University standout Klay Thompson (Golden State), Kyrie Irving (Cleveland), Blake Griffin (Los Angeles Clippers), Paul George (Indiana), Damian Lillard (Portland), Gordon Hayward (Utah), DeMarcus Cousins (Sacramento), Bradley Beal (Washington), Andre Drummond (Detroit), Kenneth Faried

(Denver) and Kyle Korver (Atlanta).

USA Basketball chairman Jerry Colangelo said the roster could be trimmed to 15 after the camp in Las Vegas that begins July 28, with the final 12 selected before the Americans depart for the World Cup of Basketball in Spain in late August.

Missing from the group is NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard of San Antonio and Portland AllStar forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was expected to play this summer. Colangelo said Leonard wanted additional rest after the Spurs’ lengthy season. He did not give a reason for the absence of Aldridge, who has pulled out in the past.

“We could only offer an opportunity and then they can either accept or not,” Colangelo said.

“In Aldridge’s case, this has happened a couple of times previously, but the bottom line is he advised us he’s not available.”

The U.S. will be led by Durant, the NBA scoring champion from the Oklahoma City Thunder who was the MVP of the 2010 World Championship, which has since been renamed. Curry, Love and Rose also played on that team, the first from the U.S. to win the tournament since 1994.

Following the Las Vegas camp, the Americans will train and play exhibition games in Chicago and New York before leaving for Spain.

candidates to be the starting pitcher for this team,” Farrell said.

“But given what he’s done over a long successful career, what he’s doing this year, it’s an honor to name Felix our starter.”

Hernandez leads the league in win percentage (.846), games started, innings pitched (144.1) and FIP, or fielding independent pitching, which measures what a pitchers ERA would be if the fielding behind him were league average. If that were the case on all the balls he puts in play, his ERA would be 2.02.

He also earns the distinction of being the first Venezuelan-born pitcher to start an All-Star game.

“To be the first Venezuelan guy, it’s something special,” he said.

Hernandez will be joined by Mariners closer Fernando Rodney, second baseman Robinson Cano and third baseman Kyle Seager.

The All-Star Game is nothing new for Cano, who is a six-time All-Star who’s started at second base each of the last four. He will be reunited with his ex-Yankees teammate, Derek Jeter, who is the AL’s starting shortstop.

Cano, who will bat third, is hitting .334 this season, and has 56 RBI. He hopes to get a few at-bats during the game.

He’s only had seven plate appearances as an All-Star, including just one last year, something he thinks is wrong.

“Sometimes, you get elected, you get one at-bat, and then you get replaced. Sometimes, the guy who comes (as a replacement) gets three at-bats. The starter should get three at-bats,” he said.

Cano, who’s finished in the top six of the MVP voting the last four years, said if he could make a change with the All-Star Game format, he would make it mandatory that starters hit three times.

“The game is for the fans,” he said. “They should see who they elected. A few years ago, Ichiro (Suzuki) got elected and got one at-bat. That’s not what fans want.”

As the seasoned All-Star game veteran, Cano will spend part of his week showing around Seager, who is making his first appearance.

“I’ve already talked to him about it,” the Mariners’ third baseman said. “I’m basically just going to follow him around and he’s going to introduce me to a lot of the guys and show me the ropes.”

Initially left off the roster, Seager was named to the team to replace Toronto’s Edwin Encarnacion, who is on the 15-day DL with a quad injury. Seager, 26, ranks second among AL third baseman in RBI, home runs and ranks third in average, on-base percentage and OPS (on-base plus slugging). Many saw his initial omission from the roster as a snub — one that was rectified when he was named to the team.

“It’s a great honor,” Seager said.

“It’s something I’m extremely excited about, to go and be around all these guys and talk to them for a few days, pick their brains.

“It’s exciting for sure just to go there and meet all these guys that I grew up watching and have been playing with for a few years now. It’s really exciting.”

Seager and Cano give the M’s two position players on the team, something Seattle hasn’t had since 2006, when infielder Jose Lopez and outfielder Suzuki were on the team. And with the late addition of Rodney, the Mariners had their most players selected since 2003 when four players went to the All-Star Game.

Rodney, 37, was named to his second All-Star game Saturday, replacing former teammate David Price of Tampa Bay, who pitched Sunday and won’t be available. Rodney’s 27 saves lead all of baseball, and he has a 1.98 ERA in 37 appearances.

Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon, who said he will watch the game from his home in Indiana, thinks having four players speaks to the improvements his team has made as the year’s progressed.

This year the Mariners are 51-44 at the break, compared to 43-52 last year.

“We’re heading in the right direction,” McClendon said. “And I think in the very near future there are going to be even more All-Stars.”

Yoenis Cespedes of the Oakland Athletics won his second straight Home Run Derby title.

Cespedes wins HR Derby

By Dave Campbell Associated Press

MINNEAPOLIS — Oakland’s Yoenis Cespedes became the first repeat winner of the AllStar home run derby in 15 years, powering his way past Cincinnati’s Todd Frazier by a whopping 9-1 in the final round Monday night.

Ken Griffey Jr. took the title in 1998 and 1999.

With a serious, determined look on his face the whole time, Cespedes finished with 28 homers. That was four fewer than last year, when he beat Washington’s Bryce Harper 9-8 in the final round.

Cespedes saved his best for last, a 452-foot blast to the third deck above left field that

officially measured as the longest of the night.

Athletics third base coach Mike Gallego again pitched to Cespedes, who went deep 32 times in last year’s derby at Citi Field in New York. Gallego’s arm looked nearly out of gas by the final round, which started after 10:30 p.m. local time.

Cespedes topped Toronto’s Jose Bautista, and Frazier surprisingly beat Miami’s Giancarlo Stanton in the semifinals.

Bautista and Stanton each earned a bye to the semifinals under the new bracketed format, which gave each player seven outs and pitted the survivors from each side in the final round. Bautista went deep 10 times in the first round,

keeping the fans in the second deck above left field on their toes, and Stanton hit six.

That was all, though.

After a long wait for his next turn, Stanton put up a zero in the semifinals and let Frazier advance with only one.

Oh, but Stanton’s six were beauties.

One landed in the third deck above left field, about a halfdozen rows shy of the very top of the ballpark. Another reached the second deck above the center field batter’s eye, a place never touched by a ball during an actual game here.

Stanton has been credited with three of the 15 longest home runs in the majors this year, including the second-farthest at 484 feet.

Which dugout will Samardzija sit in?

By Paul Sullivan Chicago Tribune

MINNEAPOLIS — The biggest mystery surrounding today’s All-Star Game is where A’s pitcher Jeff Samardzija will wind up.

Should Samardzija sit in the National League dugout with the players who voted him to their team as a Cub, or take a seat in the American League dugout with his six A’s teammates?

“I think he’s going just stand in the middle of the field and just be awkward,” A’s catcher Derek Norris predicted.

While the Midsummer Classic figures to be Derek Jeter’s night, a player who definitely won’t participate was one of the most in demand for interviews Monday.

“Kind of a crazy ordeal,” A’s third baseman Josh Donaldson said.

Samardzija said he doesn’t want it to be “a big deal,” but it already is. He was asked several times Monday what jersey he’ll wear, and replied “a blank one” most of the time.

“It’s not really unique,” Samardzija said. “It’s just the way things happened. The timing (of the trade from the Cubs to the A’s) is unfortunate, but I’m really excited to get to

Sox From Page C1

Two players who didn’t have their passports remained behind, but the majority made the trip.

However, when the team bus reached the border, it was determined Everett’s Latin American players did not have sufficient paperwork completed on their visas to allow them to work in Canada. Therefore seven players — including six pitchers — and pitching coach Nasusel Cabrera were forced to turn back.

Fortunately, the Sox

experience two teams.

“I get to work out with the National League team and thank those guys for bringing me here and speaking up and saying I belong here. ... And then during the game I get to go be part of the AL and see that side of things and meet those guys I’ll be facing in the near future.”

In 2004, Carlos Beltran wasn’t voted in for the American League as a member of the Royals, but MLB allowed Beltran to be named to the NL team as an injury replacement after he was traded to the Astros. Beltran went 1-for-2 off the bench, scoring a run.

But since Samardzija was voted to the NL team, MLB decided he can’t play for either team.

“I feel like he should be allowed to pitch in the game,” Tigers pitcher Max Scherzer said. “I understand that he was elected on the National League side and now he’s on the American League side. It’s such a ‘what do you do’ type of situation.”

Samardzija found out about his sticky situation from players’ union head Tony Clark, who sent him a long text about his status as a non-pitcher.

“He was explaining that it had never happened before

(to a player voted in), so we’re kind of setting a precedent if anything happens in the future like this,” Samardzija said.

“Ultimately he was relaying to me that he just wanted me to enjoy the festivities and soak in the atmosphere, and anything after that was gravy. I agree 100 percent, man. ... I don’t have to pitch, so my anxiety level is at an all-time low.”

Samardzija couldn’t be happier being with the A’s, a team full of free spirits with which he’ll fit like a glove. He said he has never been around guys that talked so much baseball, though he didn’t reveal what the Cubs talked about.

Asked about leaving the Cubs, the hometown team he once had a no-trade contract with, Samardzija said he didn’t feel any sadness.

“There was no time for emotions, no time for reflections or anything,” Samardzija said.

“When you get traded over to a team that’s in first place, you’re obligated to give all your time and attention to that team.

So I’m not going to sit and reminisce.

“I’ll save that for later. ... I’m excited to be on the team I’m on. They went out of their way to come get me, and I’m going to live up to all the expectations that they have for me.”

anticipated a potential problem and had a van following the bus to ferry the players back to Everett. However, that was little consolation for those who had to pick up the slack in their absence, as the pitchers were staring at the possibility of heavy workloads.

“They kind of told us they were flying in a few guys, so we weren’t really that worried,” said Kerski, whose two appearances in three days is a rarity at the short-season single-A level.

“We were just worried about when we had to pitch.”

The Seattle Mariners, Everett’s parent team, helped alleviate the problem by flying five players — pitchers Jake Zokan, Andrew Kittredge, Nick Kiel and

Logan Seifrit and utilityman Patrick Brady — to Vancouver from other minor-league affiliates to alleviate the pressure. The four new pitchers handled the pitching during the middle game of the series on Saturday, giving the staff a much-needed break.

The Sox also received some volunteer help as position players Luke Guarnaccia and Jordan Cowan also made appearances on the mound.

The nine players who couldn’t play in Canada are now available again, and the five fill-in players have returned to their previous teams. Everett travels back to Vancouver on Aug. 13-15. One can only hope the paperwork issues are sorted out by then.

EVERETT — Sam Mende crushed a two-run home run in the top of the 10th inning, giving the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes a 6-4 victory over the Everett AquaSox on Monday night at Everett Memorial Stadium.

With the score tied 4-4 going to extra innings, Salem-Keizer’s Travis Relaford led off the 10th by doubling over the head of left fielder Phillips Castillo. Mende followed, and after showing bunt on the first two pitches, he lined Leoncio Munoz’s 2-0 pitch over the fence in center to break the deadlock.

Everett put the tying runs on second and third in the bottom of the 10th, but Ian Gardeck struck out Wilton Martinez to end the game.

Four pitchers combined to strike out 15 for Salem-Keizer (15-16), which took the first game of the five-game series.

Corey Simpson went 2-for-4 with a homer and Kyle Petty had three hits to lead Everett (8-23).

Everett starting pitcher Luiz Gohara, the highly-touted 17-year-old from Brazil, had another up-and-down performance. The left-hander had his longest outing since joining the Sox at the beginning of the month, lasting 41⁄3 innings. But he continued to struggle with his command, walking three and hitting another as he allowed three runs in getting a no decision.

Everett twice jumped out to a lead. The Sox took a 2-0 lead in the bottom of the first when Simpson went the opposite way to drop a two-run homer just into the homer porch in right.

Then after Salem-Keizer rallied for three in the third, Everett regained the lead with two more runs in the fourth on an RBI single by Petty and a run-scoring double by Martinez.

Simpson’s weekend treat Sox outfielder Corey Simpson was one of the nine Everett players who were unable to travel with the team to Canada over the weekend for the Sox’s three-game trip to Vancouver.

However, unlike his teammates, he found other playing arrangements.

Simpson received a sneak preview of the Class AAA level as he spent the weekend with the Pacific Coast League’s Tacoma Rainiers.

Simpson didn’t have his passport with him, meaning he would have had difficulty getting back into the U.S. from Canada. But instead of kicking his heels in Everett, he was instead given a brief promotion to Tacoma.

Simpson didn’t just sit on the bench for the Rainiers, he played two full games. He struggled in his first game Saturday, going 0-for-3 with three strikeouts. However, he bounced back Sunday to go 1-for-3, his first Class AAA hit a ground-ball single to left.

“It was a great experience, I loved it,” Simpson said. “The atmosphere was great, and the pitching was incredible. They can spot it and throw all different kinds of stuff. I had fun.”

Simpson, a sixth-round pick by the Seattle Mariners in the 2013 amateur draft, came into Monday batting .212 in eight games with the Sox.

Sounders have a lull in MLS schedule Seattle plays friendly against Tottenham on Saturday

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

Major League Soccer’s World Cup break is over, but the Seattle Sounders are heading into another lull in league play.

After their 2-0 win over Portland on Sunday, the Sounders headed into a 14-day break in their MLS schedule before the Los Angeles Galaxy visits on July 28.

The only match before then is a friendly against Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League at 1 p.m. Saturday at CenturyLink Field. The club reported Monday that ticket sales have topped 52,000.

The break comes at a time when Seattle remains at the top of the MLS table, seven points clear of D.C. United, and 10 points ahead of Real Salt Lake in the Western Conference.

“I don’t even look,” coach Sigi Schmid said. “I

in kids his age. And all his teachers have said this. ...

He practices (a lot). He’s constantly building bicycle jumps or working on his dirt bike track. He just has a drive that’s different.”

Cobey Carper admits he sometimes gets nervous on his motorcycle, “but not that often. If I’m doing really good, but then I almost crash, then I get a little nervous,” he said.

“It’s like, whoa, that was (close). But sometimes going up onto the line I

just look at our own points, and I’m happy to see us continue to get points. ...

Hopefully one day we will look at the standings and say, ‘Hey, we have qualified for the playoffs.’ For now, it’s about continuing to play well.”

The Sounders were off Monday, return to training Tuesday, and then will be off again Wednesday before resuming work for the friendly.

Schmid said his team’s top priorities will be staying in rhythm and returning to health. Players such as Brad Evans (knee), Leo Gonzalez (hamstring), Djimi Traore (adductor), Dylan Remick (adductor) and Andy Rose (knee) are all reported making progress. Schmid said some are possible for this weekend and most are likely for the return to league play at the end of the month.

That would continue an upward trend for the

Sounders, who on Sunday welcomed back Clint Dempsey and DeAndre Yedlin from World Cup duty, and forward Obafemi Martins from a hamstring injury.

Yedlin went the full 90 minutes, while Dempsey scored his team-high ninth goal of the season.

“I think we did the right thing by giving Clint the week off,” Schmid said. “It gave him time to spend with his family. ... DeAndre had some time off, and he will have a few more days off after the Tottenham game, because I think you need to do that. Clint felt fresh when he came back ... and DeAndre is a young kid and doesn’t know how to feel yet.”

Meanwhile, Martins’ second-half appearance was cited by both sides as a turning point in the match.

“You could see that that Martins, Dempsey — these guys were fresh,”

Timbers coach Caleb Porter said. “When Martins came on and paired with Dempsey, they gave us a lot of problems. I think our back line just looked like they were tired, and you can’t be tired running against Dempsey and Martins. And Dempsey proved why he’s one of the best players in our country and scored a couple of goals in the World Cup.” The drumbeat for Tottenham’s visit begins at midweek with regional charity and publicity events.
