DARRINGTON — After the disaster, the music, like the Stillaguamish River, kept rolling.

That isn’t to say things remained entirely the same at the Darrington Bluegrass Festival, now in its 38th year.

Somber notes at times clouded the up-tempo dobro guitars and vocal harmonies on Sunday, the final day of the

as 7,000 people when weather is nice, Morgan said.

The festival lineup featured more than a dozen acts from Friday through Sunday, including headliners Joe Mullins & the Radio Ramblers.

Camping started the previous weekend. Motorhomes and fifth wheels Sunday sported license plates from Montana, California, British Columbia and Idaho.

Groups of musicians sat in small circles for acoustic jams.

On the main stage that afternoon, the Birdsview Bluegrass Band from Skagit County ended their set with a tune that captured the recent tribulations in the Stillaguamish Valley.

The band’s bassist, 63-yearold Donny Coggins, wrote “Oso Strong and Pray” to honor the lives lost in the mudslide and those who rushed to help: See BLUEGRASS, back page, this section

OLYMPIA — Gov. Jay Inslee and Snohomish County Executive John Lovick are nearly ready to convene a commission that will delve into events preceding and following the deadly Oso landslide.

Launch of the joint countystate panel could be announced as early as this week by the two leaders, who first pledged to set up a commission in late April.

Since then, Inslee and Lovick have not revealed who will serve nor offered many details on what they will focus on. They’ve also been quiet about the cost.

“We are very close to announcing all of that,” said David Postman, Inslee’s communications chief and one of a handful of state and county employees involved in setting up the panel.

Though the group will be launched weeks later than imagined, Postman said no one is rushing.

“It just pays to be thoughtful up front,” he said. “We want to set this up for success.”

A key question will be how deeply the commission probes into the circumstances of the March 22 disaster that killed 43 people. Searchers still hope to find the lone missing victim, Kris Regelbrugge, 44.

In April, Lovick said the group is “going to look at everything that happened. They’re going to cover every single detail.”

On Thursday, he made clear to The Herald editorial board the commission will be looking to assess actions taken in the emergency and not to assign blame for anything that occurred.

The governor and county executive do not want the work of the commission entangled in ongoing legal wrangling. A lawsuit and

TV legend James Garner dies the buzz buzz Judge Not Hon.

By Frazier Moore Associated Press

NEW YORK — Few actors could register disbelief, exasperation or annoyance with more comic subtlety.

James Garner had a way of widening his eyes while the corner of his mouth sagged ever so slightly.

Maybe he would swallow once to further make his point.

This portrait of fleeting disquiet could be understood, and identified with, by every member of the audience. Never mind Garner was tall, brawny and, well, movie-star handsome.

The persona he perfected was never less than manly, good with his dukes and charming to the ladies, but his heroics were kept human-scale thanks to his gift for the comic turn. He remained one of the people.

He burst on the scene with this disarming style in the 1950s TV Western “Maverick,” which led to a stellar career in TV and films such as “The Rockford Files” and his Oscar-nominated “Murphy’s Romance.”

The 86-year-old Garner, who was found dead of natural causes at his Los Angeles home on Saturday, was adept at drama and action. But he was best known for his low-key, wisecracking style, especially on his hit TV series, “Maverick” and “The

Rockford Files.”

His quick-witted avoidance of conflict offered a refreshing new take on the American hero, contrasting with the blunt toughness of John Wayne and the laconic trigger-happiness of Clint Eastwood.

There’s no better display of Garner’s everyman majesty than the NBC series “The Rockford Files” (197480). He played an L.A. private eye and wrongly jailed ex-con who seemed to rarely get paid, or even get thanks, for the cases he took, while helplessly getting drawn into trouble to help someone who was

neither a client nor maybe even a friend.

Through it all, Jim Rockford, however down on his luck, persevered hopefully. He wore the veneer of a cynic, but led with his heart. Putting all that on screen was Garner’s magic.

Well into his 70s, the handsome Oklahoman remained active in both TV and film. In 2002, he was Sandra Bullock’s father in the film “Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.” The following year, he joined the cast of “8 Simple Rules ... For Dating My Teenage Daughter,” playing the grandfather on

the sitcom — and helping ground it with his reassuring presence — after star John Ritter, who played the father, died during the show’s second season.

When Garner received the Screen Actors Guild’s lifetime achievement award in 2005, he quipped, “I’m not at all sure how I got here.” But in his 2011 memoir, “The Garner Files,” he provided some amusing and enlightening clues, including his penchant for bluntly expressed opinions and a practice for decking people who said something nasty to his face — including an obnoxious fan and an abusive stepmother.

It was in 1957 when the ABC network, desperate to compete on ratings-rich Sunday night, scheduled “Maverick” against CBS’s powerhouse “The Ed Sullivan Show” and NBC’s “The Steve Allen Show.” To everyone’s surprise — except Garner’s— “Maverick” soon outpolled them both.

Garner was born James Scott Bumgarner (some references say Baumgarner) in Norman, Oklahoma. His mother died when he was 5, and friends and relatives cared for him and his two brothers for a time while his father was in California.

In 1957, Garner married TV actress Lois Clarke, who survives him. She had a daughter Kimberly from a previous marriage, and the Garners had another daughter, Gretta Scott.

Fire damages Everett apartment 5 vie for seat in 21st District

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — Nearly three dozen people were displaced after fire struck an apartment complex near Evergreen Way early Sunday morning, Everett firefighters said.

All of the people in the building escaped unhurt, though two cats died, assistant fire marshal Eric Hicks said.

Firefighters were dispatched to the Beverly Village Apartments

at 801 75th St., shortly after 2 a.m. They received reports of people trapped inside, Hicks said.

A woman sleeping there had awakened after smoke filled her apartment, he said. She roused her two children, escaped with them and started alerting her neighbors.

Richie Mathis, 35, said he was outside another building in the complex smoking a cigarette when he noticed the flames. Mathis grabbed a fire

extinguisher and ran over to help, then started pounding on doors when he realized how serious things were. He wanted to make sure everyone got out safe.

“I could hear kids crying,” Mathis said. “I could hear the fire popping.”

When firefighters arrived, flames were coming from a first-floor window, Hicks said.

As they tried to extinguish the blaze, it spread to the building’s second and third floors, as well

as the attic. By the time the fire was out, 12 apartments had suffered damage: three from the fire itself, the rest from smoke and water.

The Snohomish County chapter of the American Red Cross was assisting the displaced families.

The cause of the fire was under investigation, Hicks said. The apartment building was damaged beyond repair.

One of the year’s most competitive primary election races is in south Snohomish County, where five candidates are vying to succeed retiring Democratic state Rep. Mary Helen Roberts.

Democrats Justin McMahon, Strom Peterson, Scott Whelpley and Dick McManus and Republican Allen McPheeters are seeking the 21st Legislative District seat Roberts has held for a decade.

The top two finishers in the Aug. 5 primary, regardless of party, will face off in the November general election.

Recent elections show the district is strongly Democratic, making it possible for an intraparty duel this fall.

Peterson, Whelpley and McMahon are each raising money and securing endorsements from prominent Democratic lawmakers, labor unions and other forces of the party base. Roberts endorsed Peterson for the job.

McManus, an admitted long shot, said he is running to press his call for Democrats to demand a new congressional investigation into the 9/11 attacks.

McPheeters, who is chairman of the GOP operation in the district, entered the race at the last minute and said he did so to ensure voters had a Republican choice.

Hearing Sentencing delayed in murder of child slated for Riverfront project

Christina Carlson was convicted of murder after her 1½-year-old daughter died from severe malnutrition.

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

TULALIP — A Tulalip woman convicted of murder in the 2012 death of her young daughter won’t learn her punishment until early next month.

Christina Carlson was scheduled to be sentenced Monday

in U.S. District Court in Seattle.

The hearing was pushed back to Aug. 4.

Carlson, 38, pleaded guilty in April to second-degree murder and criminal mistreatment. Lawyers have agreed to recommend a sentence between eight and 13 years. A federal judge isn’t obligated to follow the attorneys’

recommendations.

Carlson faces up to life behind bars.

Her daughter, Chantel Craig, 1 ½, suffered from severe malnutrition and died after paramedics found her. Chantel and her sister, 3, were living with Carlson in a car on the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

The girls had sores all over their bodies and were covered in feces, lice and maggots.

Chantel wasn’t breathing when paramedics reached her. They were unable to revive her. The

older girl was unconscious and suffered seizures. She was treated for dehydration and skin sores from prolonged exposure to feces and urine.

The girls were kept buckled into their car seats for hours.

Carlson hadn’t changed their diapers for days despite having an unopened package of clean diapers in the trunk of the car. The girls also hadn’t been adequately fed in several days,

LAKE STEVENS — Aquafest organizers have planned more than 60 different events for this weekend in downtown Lake Stevens.

The 54th Annual Lake Stevens Aquafest is set to kick off Friday at about 5 p.m. and wrap up Sunday evening, with the carnival and most events located near Lake Stevens City Hall and North Cove Park. A free shuttle

is scheduled to run regularly between parking at Lake Stevens High School and downtown.

The heart of Aquafest is the lake, said Janice Huxford, vice president of the Aquafest Executive Board. She said any events related to the water are crowdpleasers. These include boat races, water skiing, rowing lessons and fireworks over the lake.

A new skurfing event is also planned this year, where people ride a surfboard in the wake of a boat, usually holding onto a

10-foot rope.

“And we have a boat parade, which no one else in the area can boast because we are the only city with a lake in the middle of our festival,” Huxford said.

There is no charge for general admission to Aquafest. Free events include a pet show, outdoor movie, car show and pizza eating contest. Some activities, including carnival rides and boating events, have separate participation fees.

This year’s festival theme is All

scheduled guest speakers for the free event. It will begin at 6:30 p.m. at the Everett Public Library, 2702 Hoyt Ave. Snohomish County Train Watch volunteers tracked the number of oil and coal trains traveling through the county in April.

Tuesday’s meeting will include discussion of the group’s ongoing effort to monitor the transportation of oil and coal by rail.

“Every year, we try to do something that has a water theme,” Huxford said. “This year, we really wanted something that’s kind of Fourth of July meets American and veteran pride.”

During Sunday’s festivities, U.S. military veterans can get free 15-minute massages on Main Street across from City Hall.

EVERETT — The public will get an opportunity to comment on the latest iteration of the proposed Riverfront development.

Riverfront, a mixed-use neighborhood east of I-5 along the Snohomish River, has been in the works for a decade since San Diego real estate developer OliverMcMillan signed on to build it.

Polygon Northwest Inc. of Bellevue purchased the property in July 2103, and last month Newport Beach, Calif.-based William Lyon Homes bought Polygon’s residential homebuilding business for $520 million, which included the parcels in the Riverfront area.

Polygon still owns the section of Riverfront that is slated to become a commercial zone.

Earlier this year Polygon made some changes to the plan for the “Simpson Pad” site, a planned residential neighborhood on 40 acres at the southern end of the

with issues and points of views not represented by Democrats,” he said.

One area is education and how the state will comply with a state Supreme Court order to fully fund public schools by 2018.

This will cost an estimated $3.5 billion to $4 billion a year.

McPheeters, 46, who lives north of Lynnwood, said money from the state budget must go first to pay for schools and then lawmakers can answer the question of “how do we fund everything else state government is doing.”

By contrast, the Democratic candidates said new revenue is needed, and each expressed a desire to look at closing some tax breaks, establishing an income tax and boosting the state’s portion of the sales tax.

“We have to talk about an income tax,” Peterson said. “That idea might not go anywhere but we have to have that conversation.”

Peterson, 46, an Edmonds City Council member and owner of a downtown restaurant, said he backs spending cuts but only if they don’t snip the safety net of health care and social services.

Whelpley, 47, a Navy veteran making his first run for office, said he would look to close tax loopholes

It’s a locally driven event,

Huxford said. Lake Stevens businesses and organizations like the Kiwanis, Lions and Rotary clubs donate time, money and services or products.

“There’s a substantial cost for a festival of this size and it’s all covered by local businesses and organizations, and by in-kind donations,” Huxford said.

The list of Aquafest activities this year includes a children’s parade, teen dance, pancake breakfast, disc golf tournament, water races, chalk art and the annual Aquafest Idol singing contest. A full schedule is available at www.aquafest.org.

congressional campaign and the 2011 marijuana legalization measure.

He said “clawback” provisions are needed in laws providing tax breaks. That way, if a company doesn’t deliver on promises to create jobs, it could lose the break, and that would bring in dollars. He also wants to impose a tax on carbon emissions.

There are some areas where the Democratic hopefuls don’t all see eye-to-eye.

For example, Peterson, McMahon and McManus endorse Initiative 1351, the November ballot measure aimed at reducing class sizes. Whelpley and McPheeters oppose it, saying it’s a well-intentioned idea that the state can’t afford right now.

McPheeters’ position on transportation funding is in contrast with the quartet of Democrats.

He said he sees a need for “some kind of package” but wants to do it without raising the gas tax. Democratic candidates backed the 10.5-cent increase passed by the House of Representatives in 2013.

“I do support a transportation package as soon as possible,” McMahon said.

“I think it’s a shame that the Republicans and some Democrats in the Senate held up a vote.”

Peterson said any plan must cover all modes of travel and provide flexibility for communities to receive money for local projects. He also said there

must be money included to cover cleanup of stormwater pollution.

Whelpley said reform must be part of the solution and expressed a willingness to look at the cost of paying prevailing wages on all projects. One of his endorsers is Rep. Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island, chairwoman of the House Transportation Committee.

McManus, 66, a former Community Transit bus driver, said he’ll look to make sure there is adequate funding for bus service.

Peterson leads all candidates in fundraising with $37,910 as of Friday, according to reports filed with the state Public Disclosure Commission.

McMahon has raised $30,433, Whelpley $26,689, McPheeters $1,573 and McManus $546.

On the endorsement front, Peterson’s list of backers includes U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell, state Sen. Marko Liias, D-Everett, and Edmonds Mayor Dave Earling, a prominent Republican.

McMahon’s endorsements include Democratic state Reps. Mike Sells of Everett and Luis Moscoso of Mountlake Terrace.

Whelpley’s supporters include Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn, state Sen. Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens, and state Rep. Cindy Ryu, D-Shoreline.

Riverfront property, which is also the former site of the Simpson Paper Co. mill.

The revised plan calls for 226 single-family detached houses on the site, fewer than the original plan (which included some multifamily housing) and the 650 maximum set by the city.

The City Council approved the overall changes to the development plan in March.

Tuesday’s hearing will focus on more of the details of the project in order for it to qualify for its required shoreline permits, said Allen Giffen, the city’s director of Planning and Community Development.

Those details include things such as street width and subdivision improvements.

“It takes it down to a greater level of detail than was addressed in the City Council’s approval of the development agreement,” Giffen said.

possibly longer.

Evidence also showed that Carlson smoked heroin in the car with the girls inside.

The day that Chantel died Carlson left them alone for several hours to visit with nearby neighbors.

She used their phone in an attempt to buy drugs. The neighbors eventually persuaded her to go check on the girls.

Chantel wasn’t breathing and her other daughter wasn’t responsive. She ran back up the road and called 911.

Carlson and the girls had for months been the focus of on-again, off-again searches by state and tribal

child welfare workers.

Their grandmother called Child Protective Services in December 2011 with concerns that the girls were being neglected.

Carlson had lost custody of at least three other children because of her drug use and neglect, court papers said.

In a terrible coincidence, state social workers closed the investigation hours before Chantel died. They hadn’t been able to find her or Carlson. The woman and her daughters had for weeks been living in her car down a dirt road on the reservation.

Change made more comfortable at Garden Court

I

t isn’t always easy to hit the reset button on your life. However, that is what many seniors find themselves doing as they age. The death of a spouse, an illness or some other occurrence can force a change whether that person wants to change or not.

“Many times people resist change, but it often takes more energy to resist change than to allow yourself to lean into it and move forward with your life,” said Jane Meyers-Bowen, a staff member at Garden Court Retirement in Everett.

This aversion to change isn’t a natural part of aging.

It varies from individual to individual. But seniors are more often faced with having to evolve their lives as circumstances change.

How well they handle that change depends on a number of things.

If a senior has a good plan in place for moving forward, and if they check themselves and make an effort, change won’t feel as uncomfortable.

It also helps if they have a good support system in place. A support system can be family, friends or trusted professionals such as a doctor, counselor, pastor or life coach.

Seniors who have lost a loved one sometimes find it easier to adjust if they had a chance to prepare themselves for that loss, Meyers-Bowen pointed out.

Newlyweds Bob and Joan found love at Garden Court. The couple will celebrate their first wedding anniversary this summer.

Garden Court is a place where many active seniors have embraced change and found a comfortable new way of life.

An expected loss due to chronic illness can sometimes be a little easier to bear if the survivor had a chance to talk to their dying loved one and do some of their grieving and planning in advance.

Those faced with a sudden loss may need to take extra time and thought to make plans for an unexpected change. Family and friends may be able to help by asking what the

husband or wife would have wanted their surviving spouse to do.

Usually, the answer to that question is to move forward. Otherwise they would be missing opportunities to make new friends, learn new skills or to find a new joy in their lives that would help to alleviate some of that pain of loss.

When faced with a major change in their lives, many seniors opt to embrace

the change by switching to retirement living. Garden Court Retirement Living in Everett is an award-winning community where many active seniors have found a comfortable new way of life.

It’s a place where seniors are able to easily make friends with other seniors who have gone through some of the same changes and challenges.

A great example would be Garden Court residents

Joan and Bob. The couple is about to celebrate their first wedding anniversary together. Each had lost a spouse in the past and later met after moving to Garden Court. They became friends, love blossomed and last summer they married.

Not everyone finds romance in a retirement community but they often find a renewed interest in life because of all of the activities and possibilities

around them.

Garden Court has a busy activities program. There are things to do onsite as well as a number of trips and tours. Volunteer opportunities are available for those residents who would like to use their retirement to help others in the local community.

There is more leisure time to enjoy new friendships, activities and volunteer opportunities because housekeeping is an included amenity at Garden Court. There is no need to cook either.

The community features a restaurant-style dining room where residents can choose what they would like to eat. Friends or family can also enjoy meals in the dining room for a nominal fee. There is also a 24-hour beverage and snack bistro.

There is security and peace of mind as Garden Court as well. Staff is available 24 hours-a-day.

Discreet assistance can be summoned to residents’ private one-bedroom, two-bedroom or studio apartments at the touch of a button. Should help be needed with personal hygiene, dressing or medications, assisted-living services can come to the apartment.

Helpful weather coming to Washington wildfires Associated Press WINTHROP, Wash. — Cooler temperatures and lighter winds are forecast to descend on a wildfirestricken Washington state, helping firefighters battle flames that have been growing unfettered for a week and have covered hundreds of square miles.

While Sunday’s weather has slight improvements on the hot temperatures and gusty winds that have fueled the wildfires, the forecast for Monday and Tuesday calls for lighter winds and temperatures, said Spokane-based National Weather Service meteorologist Greg Koch.

“Overall, it looks like the weather scenario is improving,” Koch said.

Then on Wednesday a “vigorous” front is expected to cover Washington, bringing rain to much of the state. But it will also bring lighting, he added.

“The benefits of the system are still up in the air,” Koch said. “We may get some rain where we need it, but we may also experience some lighting that could cause some new ignitions.”

Sunday’s official estimate puts the wildfire burning in north-central Washington at more than 370 square miles. It measured 260 square miles on Friday.

Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers estimates that 150 homes have been destroyed, but suspects that number could be higher. His deputies haven’t been able to search parts of the county where homes are spread miles apart. No serious injuries have been reported,

MARCUS YAM / THE SEATTLE TIMES

John Johnson returns to clear out and salvage remnants of his burned down home on Chiliwist Road, after the Carlton Complex fire burned through the Methow Valley, near Malott, on Sunday.

Rogers said.

There are nearly 1,400 firefighters battling the flames, assisted by more than 100 fire engines, helicopters dropping buckets of water and planes spreading flame retardant.

On Sunday, Rogers was driving to the town of Twisp to survey the damage.

“It’s the first time in four days I’ve seen blue sky,” he said. “Every day, when you got up, it was nothing but smoke. All we’ve seen of the sun is a red ball.”

Although the weather is improving, the towns in the scenic Methow Valley remain without power and have limited landline and cellphone service. Okanogan County Public Utility District officials told KREM that fully restoring power to the area could take weeks.

Gov. Jay Inslee said Friday about 50 fires were burning in Washington, which has been wracked by hot, dry weather, gusting winds and lightning.

About 2,000 firefighters were working in the eastern part of the state, with about

a dozen helicopters from the Department of Natural Resources and the National Guard, along with a Washington State Patrol spotter plane.

Karina Shagren, spokeswoman for the state’s Military Department, said 100 National Guard troops were on standby, and up to 1,000 more in Yakima could receive additional fire training. Active-duty military could be called in as well, Inslee said.

The Washington state Department of Natural Resources announced Saturday evening that firefighters from New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming are coming to the state to help.

Early Saturday, authorities announced that they are bringing in two military air tankers from Wyoming to help fight wildfires in the Pacific Northwest and elsewhere. Officials at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, said the tankers were activated to ensure that firefighters had adequate air tanker capability in the region.

Man sentenced in Alaska cold case Associated Press JUNEAU, Alaska — A man who long had been the suspect in the murder of a woman in Yakutat nearly 20 years ago was sentenced to serve 40 years in prison.

Robert D. Kowalski was sentenced Friday in Juneau Superior Court. Kowalski was convicted of killing Sandra Perry, 39, in 1996 while they were vacationing in Yakutat, shooting her with a shotgun during a dispute.

During the sentencing trial, which was remotely attended by Perry’s son Jeremy Padgett, Kowalski continued to say the shooting was an accident.

“I just want you to know that it was an accident and I did not do that on purpose,” Kowalski said. “I did not want to hurt your mother one way whatsoever. I’m very sorry.”

The 53-year-old was only charged with first-and second-degree murder in connection to Perry’s death because another one of his

girlfriend’s died in a nearly identical fashion, causing the Yakutat case to be reopened. Kowalski fatally shot Lorraine Kay Morin, 45, in Montana in 2008.

Kowalski was convicted of homicide via an Alford Plea for Morin’s death.

During Kowalski’s monthlong trial in Juneau, prosecutors said Kowalski intentionally shot Perry with a 12-gauge shotgun after an argument in their room. The two had been drinking and smoking marijuana, testimony showed.

Israel pummels Gaza Strip

Scores die, thousands flee in major ground battle against Hamas

By Karin Laub and Tia Goldenberg Associated Press

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip — The first major ground battle in two weeks of Israel-Hamas fighting exacted a steep price Sunday: It killed 65 Palestinians and 13 Israeli soldiers and forced thousands of terrified Palestinian civilians to flee their neighborhood, reportedly used to launch rockets at Israel and now devastated by the fighting.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the offensive would continue “as long as necessary” to end attacks from Gaza on Israeli civilians.

But Hamas seems defiant, international cease-fire efforts are stalled, and international criticism is becoming more vocal as the death toll among Palestinian civilians rises.

U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon called Israel’s latest incursion “atrocious,” and said it must do far more to protect civilians.

The U.N. Security Council held an emergency session Sunday night at the request of council member Jordan on the situation in Gaza.

In Israel, Sunday’s deaths marked the highest number of soldiers killed on a single day since Israel’s war in Lebanon in 2006.

The ferocious battle in Gaza City’s Shijaiyah neighborhood came on the third day of Israel’s ground offensive, which had been preceded by a 10-day air campaign.

In all, at least 432 Palestinians were killed and more than 3,000 wounded in the past two weeks. The overall death toll on the Israeli side rose to 20, including 18 soldiers, along with dozens of wounded troops, during that period.

Sunday night, Hamas spokesman Mushir al-Masri in Gaza claimed his group had captured an Israeli soldier. An announcement on Gaza TV of the soldier’s capture set off celebrations in Gaza City.

But the claim could not immediately be verified, and the Israeli military said it

Israeli soldiers of the Paratroopers Brigade mourn over the grave of Sgt. Bnaya Rubel at the military cemetery in Holon, Israel, on Sunday.

Rubel was killed during fighting Saturday.

Palestinian Beisan Dhahir, 7, sleeps at Shifa hospital in Gaza City, late Sunday. Beisan’s home was shelled and destroyed by Israel’s military operation in Shijaiyah in the Gaza Strip. Beisan’s mother, father, brother and two sisters died in the attack.

was investigating the report.

“There’s no kidnapped Israeli soldier,” Israel’s ambassador to the U.N., Ron Prosor, told reporters Sunday night.

For Israelis, a captured soldier would be a nightmare scenario. Hamas-allied militants seized an Israeli soldier in a cross-border raid in 2006 and held him captive in Gaza until Israel traded more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners, some of whom were involved in grisly killings, for his return in 2011.

Sunday’s battle began when Israeli troops backed by tanks entered the densely populated Shijaiyah district just after midnight Sunday. They were met by a “huge” level of resistance

by Hamas fighters who fired

anti-tank missiles, rocket-propelled grenades and automatic weapons from houses and buildings, said Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, an army spokesman.

Residents said they came under intense Israeli tank fire.

“The gate of hell has opened, and shrapnel came through the windows,” Shijaiyah resident Jawad Hassanain said by phone.

After daybreak, the extent of the devastation became apparent: At least 65 Palestinians had been killed and nearly 300 wounded, Gaza health officials said, while dozens of homes badly damaged or destroyed.

Casualties were rushed to Gaza’s central Shifa Hospital.

Wailing parents, some covered

with blood or dust from debris, carried children peppered by shrapnel, and the emergency room quickly overflowed, forcing doctors to treat some patients in a hallway.

During a brief Red Crossbrokered lull later in the day, rescue workers retrieved the dead, pulling bodies from the rubble of homes.

The 13 Israeli soldiers were killed in several separate incidents in Shijaiya, including gun battles and rocket attacks.

In the deadliest, Gaza fighters detonated a bomb near an armored personnel carrier, killing seven soldiers inside, the army said.

In another incident, three soldiers were killed when they became trapped in a burning building, it said.

Despite the losses, the army chief, Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz, said Israel intends escalate the operation. Gaza residents received automated phone calls late Sunday, warning them to evacuate refugee camps in the center of the Gaza Strip.

Shijaiyah was targeted as a Hamas stronghold and because 8 percent of more than 1,700 rockets fired at Israel since July 8 were launched from there, said Lerner.

The military said that since the beginning of ground operation late last week, it has killed 110 Gaza fighters and targeted more than 1,000 sites linked to militants. Soldiers also exposed 14 tunnels, all interconnected and leading toward Israel, and detonated six of them, the army said.

Netanyahu said in nationally televised comments Sunday that the ground campaign is vital to Israel’s security because the tunnels could be used for “mega terror attacks and kidnappings,” but acknowledged the operation is “full of risks.”

Speaking earlier to CNN, Netanyahu said the ultimate goal is to “restore a sustainable quiet” for Israel’s citizens.

Once that is achieved, he said he hopes to enlist the international community “to demilitarize Gaza,” but did not explain what that would entail.

Rebels take control of crash bodies

By Yuras Karmanau Associated Press

TOREZ, Ukraine — Rebels in eastern Ukraine took control Sunday of the bodies recovered from downed Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, and U.S. and European leaders demanded that Russian President Vladimir Putin make sure rebels give international investigators full access to the crash site.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Ukraine’s separatists were to blame for the downing of the aircraft, adding there was “extraordinary circumstantial evidence” that showed Russia was almost certainly complicit in arming the rebels.

“There’s a stacking up of evidence here, which Russia needs to help account for. We are not drawing the final conclusion here. But there is a lot that points at the need for Russia to be responsible,” Kerry said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” television show.

The key question of who controlled the collection of evidence at the sprawling crash site in rebel-held territory dominated the day’s rapid-fire developments. International monitors say armed rebels have limited their access to the crash site and Ukrainian officials said armed rebels took the bodies away from their workers by force.

Ukraine and the separatists accuse each other of firing a surface-to-air missile Thursday at Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 as it flew from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur some 33,000 feet above the battlefields of eastern Ukraine. Both deny

shooting down the plane. All those onboard the flight — 283 passengers and 15 crew — were killed.

A wave of international outrage over how the bodies of the plane crash victims were being handled came amid fears that the armed rebels who control the crash site could be tampering with the evidence there.

Donetsk rebel leader Alexander Borodai said the bodies recovered from the crash site would remain in four refrigerated train cars in the rebel-held town of Torez, 9 miles from the crash site, until the arrival of an international aviation delegation.

“The bodies will go nowhere until experts arrive,” Borodai said, speaking in the rebel-held city of Donetsk.

He also said the plane’s black boxes have been recovered and will be handed over to the International Civil

Aviation Organization.

Borodai said he was expecting a team of 12 Malaysian experts and that he was disappointed at how long they had taken to arrive. He insisted that rebels had not interfered with the crash investigation, despite reports to the contrary by international monitors and journalists at the crash site.

Ukrainian government officials, meanwhile, prepared a disaster crisis center in the government-held city of Kharkiv, expecting to receive the bodies, but those hopes appeared delayed or even dashed Sunday.

Deputy prime minister Volodymyr Groysman said 192 bodies and eight body parts were loaded onto the railway cars.

The leaders of France, Germany and Britain issued a statement demanding that Putin make sure that

pro-Russia separatists in Ukraine give full access to investigators at the Malaysian plane crash site or risk the ire of Europe.

French President Francois Hollande, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister David Cameron agreed Sunday to demand that Putin force separatists controlling the site to “finally allow rescuers and investigators to have free and total access to the zone.”

A statement from Hollande’s office said if Russia failed to immediately take the needed measures, EU foreign ministers may take action against Russia at a meeting Tuesday.

Ukraine says Russia has been sending sophisticated arms to the rebels, a charge that Moscow denies.

The U.S. embassy in Kiev issued a strong statement Sunday saying it has concluded “that Flight MH17 was likely downed by a SA-11 surface-to-air missile from separatist-controlled territory in eastern Ukraine.” It said over the weekend of July 12-13, “Russia sent a convoy of military equipment with up to 150 vehicles, including tanks, armored personnel carriers, artillery, and multiple rockets launchers” to the separatists.

The statement also said Russia was training separatist fighters in southwest Russia, including on air defense systems.

The rebels have been strictly limiting the movements of international monitors and journalists at the crash site, which is near the Russian border.

AROUND THE WORLD

Iran gets rid of enriched uranium VIENNA — The United Nations said Iran has turned all enriched uranium closest to the level needed to make nuclear arms into more harmless forms.

Iran had committed to the move under an agreement with six powers in November that essentially froze its atomic programs while the two sides negotiate a deal. They extended those talks Saturday to Nov. 24.

Iran had more than 250 pounds of 20 percent enriched uranium when the agreement was reached and began reducing it shortly after. The U.N.’s International Atomic Energy Agency said Sunday in a report obtained by The Associated Press that all has now been converted or diluted.

Bosnia-Herzegovina: Burials for massacre victims Bosnian families Sunday buried the remains of 283 Muslims and one Roman Catholic Croat who were killed at the start of the Bosnian war of 1992-95. The bodies were laid out in a sports field in Kozarac, where thousands prayed for them before burial in graveyards in the area. The victims were killed in 1992, when Serb troops went from house to house in Prijedor in northwest Bosnia and killed any non-Serbs they found.

They hid the bodies in mass graves.

About 10,000 Bosnians remain missing.

Mexico: Home owner freed The owner of a group home raided last week amid charges of abuse and other mistreatment of children living there has been released from custody without charge, an official in the federal Attorney General’s Office said Sunday.

The official said there was not enough evidence to warrant charges and added that the 79-year-old owner, Rosa Verduzco, is too old to be put in jail. Two of the shelter’s employees also have been released, but six others are being held in prison after witnesses accused them of beatings, sexual abuse and deprivation of liberty, officials say.

Egypt: 22 die in attack The death toll from a brazen attack on a border post in along the border with Libya has risen to 22 troops, the military said Sunday. The attack Saturday was deadliest suffered by Egypt’s military in recent history. President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi called the assault a terrorist attack and said it would not go unpunished. Egypt security forces increasingly have come under attack by militants since longtime ruler Hosni Mubarak was toppled by a 2011 uprising. The attacks spiked last summer after the military, then led by el-Sissi, toppled Islamist President Mohammed Morsi following days of mass protests demanding his resignation.

ACROSS THE U.S. N.Mexico: $1.9M bonus The contractor that operates the federal government’s underground nuclear waste dump in Carlsbad received a $1.9 million bonus just five days after an underground truck fire closed the facility. The Albuquerque Journal reported Sunday that the U.S. Department of Energy awarded Nuclear Waste Partnership the funds based on an “excellent” job performance in maintaining the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant. Some observers said February’s fire and the radiation leak that followed later show the contractor failed at its job.

3 teenagers held in killings Three teenagers ganged up on two homeless men and fatally beat them before leaving their bodies nearly unrecognizable, Albuquerque police said Sunday. Alex Rios, 18, and two boys, ages 16 and 15, are being held in Bernalillo County detention facilities a day after allegedly killing the victims in an open field, police said. A third victim who said he was able to flee was hospitalized for his injuries.

Calif.: Robberies linked Police in Stockton confirmed Sunday that a bank robber killed in a recent police shootout and hostage situation was among those suspected in an earlier heist at the same bank branch.

Alex Gregory Martinez, 27, who died Wednesday in a shootout that also killed a bank customer, had been among those who robbed the Bank of the West on Jan. 31, police said.

Faith and family power Electric Mirror

By Jim Davis HBJ Editor

EVERETT — Faith Mischel walks through the shop of Electric Mirror in Everett chatting with employees, asking about their families and their lives.

She stops at Patrick Erickson, the company’s chief engineer, who designed checkout stands before he came to Electric Mirror nine years ago.

“We found him on Craigslist,” Faith Mischel says. “He’s been an engineering genius in a quiet manner, just coming up with all these ideas.”

Then she adds: “The famous thing he’s good for is he’s a daddy, he’s a daddy.”

She is the wife of Jim Mischel Sr., who came up with the idea for Electric Mirror, and the mother of Jim Mischel Jr., who founded the company.

Family and faith are important to the Mischels.

“It’s a very unique atmosphere here that you don’t experience in other manufacturing facilities, as far as what I’ve been exposed to, as far as the level of respect and family values,” Erickson says.

“Their family values obviously bring a lot to the table.”

Their company is changing the mirror from something that hangs on the wall to a device that does far more.

In its march of innovation, Electric Mirror went from creating defogging mirrors to lighted mirrors to ones that feature televisions and Bluetooth technology so that people can watch shows in the bathroom or play their music without a docking station.

Their products are fast becoming standard for high-end hotels, luxury suites at sport stadiums and homes for the rich.

Electric Mirror has seen a rapid growth in the past couple of years, with revenues growing by more than 40 percent in the past three years. The company expects sales to exceed $50 million this year.

To meet the demand, the company has hired more than 100 employees in the past year, growing to 260 workers. The company, housed in a 50,000-square-foot factory in south Everett, added a neighboring 25,000-square-foot warehouse a year and a half ago.

And they’re considering constructing a new building to house their entire operation.

Every piece of each of their

products is built at the factory, from the mirrors to the metal frames to the electric wiring and even the crate in which the products are shipped.

“You do come to work and you see amazing people doing very creative things and you see the lives that are blessed,” said Jim Mischel Jr., who is president and CEO. “I would say we’re a start-up company still, because we have a long ways to grow. Our goal is to be the biggest company in Everett outside of Boeing.”

The original idea for the company came in the 1990s when Jim Mischel Sr. — a dentist who goes by the nickname “Doc” — was taking a shower and couldn’t see his face in the mirror.

So he suggested that they needed a mirror defogger and his son thought it sounded like a great idea for a business. At the time, Jim Mischel Jr. was attending law school at Regent University in Virginia Beach, Virginia.

“Every year during law school, I worked on the business plan for this company,” he said. “While everyone was off doing their legal internships, I was like, ‘Let’s work on the business plan.’ I reworked the business plan way too many times.”

After he graduated from law school, Jim Mischel Jr. lived with

his parents, doing a little legal work while trying to get his business started.

“The first three years I lived in my parents’ basement and did this 14 hours a day,” Jim Mischel Jr. said. “I think my only friend was our dog, Rocky.”

At first, Jim Mischel Jr. attempted to sell the mirror defoggers at hardware stores.

But he gained little traction. He and his brother, Aaron, would travel to trade shows trying to find a market for their defogging mirrors, often staying in their car during trips.

“We were struggling to find products to sell, mirror defoggers, people used them but it wasn’t on a level where we could make a profit,” Jim Mischel Jr. said.

The company continued for years, but struggled.

“They’d get an order like they were real professional and then they’d hang up and they’d dive across the floor like, ‘Thank you God,’” Faith Mischel said.

In 2002, the French Hotel Sofitele chain asked them if they could make 350 lighted mirrors for their hotel in Montreal.

At the time, Electric Mirror was working with an outside company. When the outside company sent the mirrors to the hotel, 75 percent of them were broken.

It was an important moment.

The company could either close or use all their profits repairing the mirrors.

Jim Mischel Jr., his brother and his dad went to Montreal, set up shop in the basement of the hotel and went to work for the summer, repairing scratches, patching the wiring and putting the mirrors back together.

“That’s where we decided after spending a whole summer fixing every lighted mirror, that’s where I came home and told the guys we’re a lighted mirror manufacturer,” Jim Mischel Jr. said.

But it was a product without a market.

“At the time, you have to understand that a hotel was spending $50 on a mirror and $50 on sconces,” Aaron Mischel said. “So their budget was $200 at most. So we’re trying to push on them an $800 lighted mirror.”

They marketed to luxury hotels that wanted to offer new, unique experiences to customers. Their work at the Hotel Sofitele was the first entry in their resume. Others would soon follow, creating a trend in the hospitality industry.

And an advantage that they had: As a family-owned company, they’re able to take custom orders that larger manufacturers aren’t able to do. It appeals to the people who are designing luxury

hotels.

In the past 10 years, their engineers have expanded on the idea of lighted mirrors to include mirrors with televisions, wireless stereo systems and dimmable lights. As the market has grown, the company has grown.

They’ve add sales offices in London, Dubai and Hong Kong.

Electric Mirror has almost 300 showrooms in the United States and Canada.

Jim Mischel Sr., who continues as the company’s chairman, insists that their products be made in this country.

“One theme that I think is important that we established since the very beginning is that we’re U.S.A. made, we’re a true U.S. manufacturer,” Jim Mischel Jr. said.

The family credits their faith for their success. Jim Mischel Sr. and Faith attend church at Judah Praise Center in Marysville.

Their kids go to City Church in Lynnwood.

Bible verses are written on billboards on the company’s manufacturing floor. One billboard reads, “Jesus Christ is Lord over Electric Mirror.” Every one of their mirrors has Deuteronomy 8:18 printed on the back.

It’s these beliefs that led the company to file a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in support of Hobby Lobby, which opposed the Affordable Care Act’s contraceptive coverage mandate.

The court ruled earlier this month 5-4 that “closely held” corporations — meaning they are for profit and have a handful of owners — may cite religious objections to providing all forms of birth control.

As to the court decision, Jim Mischel Jr. said earlier this month that he feels it would be a grave sin to pay for abortions or the morning-after pill.

“I know for the owners of this business, we feel accountable to God for doing the best for our employees and the best for our customers and treating everyone like they’re made in the image of God,” Jim Mischel Jr. said.

And he sees the good in the jobs that the company is providing for employees and their families. “We’re providing jobs, but we’re changing people’s lives,” he said. “If there’s anything closer to the American dream, I don’t know what it is.”

Bankers have advice on what start-ups need to know

By Patrick Sisneros Herald Columnist

ou are ready to launch your new business. On your checklist you have: ■ Great new business idea.

Check.

■ Solid business plan. Check.

■ Support of family and friends.

Check.

■ Sufficient capital to launch the business. Check.

■ Strong group of employees.

Check ■ Strong relationship with a bank. Oops. No check.

It often happens that fledging enterprises begin without a strong relationship with a bank.

The new business may have nothing more than a checking account with a local financial institution.

This was the case with my small business.

This is a mistake.

A strong banking relationship is as important as the other items on your checklist.

I recently spoke with Michael Swanson at Coastal Community Bank to get his perspective on how entrepreneurs should build a solid relationship with a bank.

Swanson is a vice president and manager of Coastal Express, the bank’s streamlined small business lending department.

Here are the highlights of our conversation: Question: How do you begin to develop a relationship with a bank?

Swanson: First of all, find a bank that specializes in business banking. Although banking has become fairly standardized, you will still find that banks specialize in different types of lending. Next, you’ll want to find a bank where the employees are empowered to actually help their customers. It makes no sense to establish a relationship with a banker that has to pick up the phone and call out of state every time he needs to make a change on your account.

Relationships take time to

The projects are the Camano Center, Valley View Middle School, Work Opportunities Lynnwood, and the Marysville YMCA. The projects were selected through a grant-appli-

build. Meet with a banker today.

Tell the banker about your business and what you hope to accomplish as a good conversational starting point.

Q: How much funding do I need to have? How much funding should I expect from the bank?

Swanson: For new businesses, 25 percent would be a good starting place estimate, but there are situations where it could be as low as 10 percent or as high as 40 percent depending on what is being financed and other credit factors. This would be a good question to ask that business banker.

Q: Would you advise me to take out a line of credit against my home to provide initial capital for the business?

Swanson: It really depends on the level of risk you’re willing to take. Offering a deed of trust on your personal residence could provide favorable terms, but you are also risking most individuals’ greatest asset. It’s a risk versus

cation process that evaluated technical feasibility, site visibility and cost-competitiveness, the availability of matching funds and applicant’s outreach/ educational plans.

The Washington State Building Code Council has approved a change in state law that allows installation of simple rooftop solar photovoltaic systems without

reward decision. Banks would prefer to look within the business for collateral. Many seasoned businesses have sufficient assets to fully collateralize loan requests. For startups, this can be a challenge because they have not had enough time to accumulate assets. That’s where Small Business Administration loans can come into play. The government provides a guarantee that can help mitigate concerns the bank may have about collateral.

Q: What are the top two or three things you look for in a business plan?

Swanson: I ask myself the following questions: 1. Do the projections make sense? Can they be supported by the principal’s past business endeavors and/or market data? If you think you’ll be able to sell $100,000 worth of widgets, be prepared to tell your banker how you came up with the figure. 2. Does the principal have the experience necessary to execute the plan?

A business plan doesn’t mean

review by an engineer. This change removes an estimated $500 to $2,500 in project costs and up to eight weeks of wait time for homeowners.

much if the principal does not have the professional experience and/or licenses and certifications to demonstrate that they will be able to implement the plan. 3.

What sort of contingency plans has the business owner made in case “Plan A” does not pencil out? Business plans are valuable, not only as an effective way to communicate a vision, but also because they force the entrepreneur to think about all aspects of the business before fully diving in.

Q: What’s the most common mistake you see in business startups? What’s your best advice for new entrepreneurs?

Swanson: Failure to adequately plan is the biggest mistake start-ups make. It’s been said numerous times throughout history, but “failing to plan is planning to fail.”

IN OUR VIEW | GAZA, ISRAEL AND UKRAINE

The long, hard road to peace The greatest virtue of international politics is the capacity to de-escalate and limit war.

Here’s to a pandemic of virtue.

As Eastern Washington battles devastating wildfires, and Western Washington focuses on all-things-recreation, the clouds of war in the Middle East and Ukraine throw shadows visible here. We’d much prefer the shadows give way to light, and everyone sing the gospel refrain, “I ain’t gonna study war no more.”

But to de-escalate is to engage. Washington’s congressional delegation, tracking a war-weary, summer-loving constituency, mostly errs on the side of silence.

There are a couple of exceptions, including Rep. Adam

Smith, D-Bellevue, the ranking member on the House Armed Services Committee.

“We must do whatever we can to achieve a ceasefire in the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Hamas-led government in Gaza,” Smith said in a statement. “Hamas must reconsider and accept the ceasefire offered

by Egypt which Israel agreed to accept. Suffering on both sides has been horrific and we desperately need a solution to stop the fighting.”

Spokane Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, chair of the House Republican Conference, is more subjective, avoiding ceasefire talk or acknowledging the asymmetries of power and nuances and history of Gaza.

There’s no moral

equivalence between Hamas terrorists and Benjamin Netanyahu’s regime, but to disregard the suffering of the people of Gaza is as unjust as it is strategically misguided. ”We send the people of Israel the steadfast and unending support of the United States of America,” McMorris Rodgers said in her statement.

New York Times Columnist Nicholas Kristof offers a more comprehensive read, which underscores why peace is so elusive.

“Israelis are absolutely correct that they have a right not to be hit with rockets by Hamas, not to be kidnapped, not to be subjected to terrorist bombings,” Kristof wrote. “And Palestinians are absolutely right

that they have a right to a state, a right to run businesses and import goods, a right to live in freedom rather than relegated to second-class citizenship in their own land.”

The shooting down of the Malaysia Airlines Flight MH17 over Ukraine is another shock, with civilians in the cross-hairs.

Engage and communicate your concern. Will the Boeing Co., reliant on Russian titanium, support sanctions against Putin’s murderous regime? Will Washington’s delegation go on the record promoting a Gaza ceasefire or adding teeth to Russian sanctions?

The clouds of war can’t be wished away.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■ LEGISLATURE

Elect McMahon to help all citizens Justin McMahon has earned my vote for state representative, Position 1 in the 21st Legislative District because he understands the tragic problem of homelessness right here in Snohomish County.

This is an issue that affects all of us, not just those who are struggling to live without shelter.

In almost every greenbelt in Edmonds, Lynnwood and Mukilteo, we find people setting up camp because they have nowhere else to go. With a lack of affordable housing options, a lack of shelter beds, a lack of mental health-care facilities, and a lack of livingwage jobs, more and more people every year are finding themselves unable to afford a home.

Justin has been endorsed by Snohomish County Sheriff Ty Trenary and the Washington Low Income Housing Alliance for his commitment to public safety and ending homelessness. Justin has attended Housing & Homelessness Advocacy Day for the last several years. Sheriff Trenary has endorsed Justin because they both believe that our jails are overcrowded with nonviolent offenders who really need mental health care instead of jail time.

Vote for Justin McMahon for state representative so he can put in place common sense solutions to make our communities safer for everyone — homeless or not.

Reporter without visa at the border

T

he star of a CNN film, “Documented,” journalist Jose Antonio Vargas went to Texas to bring attention to the 57,000 unaccompanied minors who have crossed the border illegally since October. On Tuesday, authorities detained Vargas at McAllen/Miller International Airport because his Philippine passport lacks a U.S. visa. Within hours, Immigration and Customs Enforcement released him.

Upon release, Vargas issued a statement, in which he noted that he had come to the border to shine a light on the children and the fear they must endure in the course of simple acts such as boarding a plane.

The problem here is: Vargas is living proof that U.S. immigration enforcement is toothless.

I first met Vargas when DEBRA J. SAUNDERS he was an intern at the San Francisco Chronicle. He reminded me over the phone Wednesday, “I used to deliver your mail.” (He lied about his legal status to get the job.)

In 2011, after years of living in fear of exposure, Vargas outed himself as an undocumented immigrant in The New York Times. His Filipina mother had sent him to live in the United States when he was 12.

Think about it. Vargas announced in The New York Times that he is here illegally, and federal authorities left him alone. The only repercussion was that Washington state revoked a driver’s license he had obtained fraudulently.

Now, for three years, he’s been making appearances across the country. “This is my first time getting stopped at the airport,” Vargas told me. (When he decided to go to McAllen, he didn’t realize that when he left, he’d have to risk a highway or airport checkpoint.) He has visited 43 states.

In 2012, Minnesota police stopped Vargas for driving with headphones on and then arrested him for driving without a valid license. ICE did not detain him.

A spokeswoman told The New York Times, “ICE is focused on smart, effective immigration enforcement that prioritizes the removal of public safety threats, recent border crossers and egregious immigration law violators, such as those who have been previously removed from the United States.”

His driving without a license bothers me to no end. I asked Vargas: If you want to convince citizens you respect the law, why would you do that?

“I was driving because, as a human being, I wanted to be free and I wanted to drive,” Vargas answered. And: “An undocumented person driving in the morning in Minneapolis isn’t thinking, ‘Oh, my God, look what I’m getting away with.’”

I support the DREAM Act, which would grant permanent residence to immigrants brought here illegally as children. Washington should not punish children for the crimes of their parents.

But it leaves me cold when “dreamers” declare in “Documented,” “We are undocumented, unafraid, unapologetic.”

Unafraid? I don’t think so. Vargas has written movingly about the fear that haunted his heady climb in journalism.

When his work for The Washington Post led to a shared Pulitzer Prize, he was afraid he’d be exposed.

And unapologetic? Such talk, Vargas told me, used to bother him, too. If I were Vargas, I’d go back to those roots. Unapologetic is the wrong attitude for young people who want to convince others that they respect the rule of law.

a dozens of claims already have been filed against the state and county related to the landslide.

It appears the scope of the commission will be three-fold.

First, commissioners will try to construct a historic narrative of the geologic and relevant political events in the years before the landslide including land-use and logging decisions.

It will review the rescue and recovery effort, then look for ways public, private and nonprofit forces could improve their responses during a catastrophic emergency.

Lovick and Inslee remained mum last week on who will serve on the commission. Postman has said the two leaders will “weigh in” on the choice of chairman but not handpick that person.

The cost of this undertaking could be huge, or not. Lovick has said the tab could reach $1 million and is counting on the state to cover the biggest portion.

Federal aid might also be sought to defray costs, he has said.

But not all that money is needed up front.

“I don’t think the required budget to get them started is that much,” Postman said Thursday.

Noah Haglund contributed to this report.

“When that hill rolled down through the valley, “It was a dark and cloudy day, “The Lord took their souls to heaven, “We’ll be Oso strong and pray.”

The group has played the song at benefits for slide survivors, Coggins said. They’ve also raised money to finish the concert hall at the Darrington Bluegrass Music Park, the 40-acre grounds where organizers put on the annual festival.

“Everything we’ve made off of it we donated,” he said.

Festival organizers had been hoping for record turnout this year, to help the area rebound from the disaster.

Though final tallies weren’t yet in, Ernestine Jones was convinced that the crowds were thinner, though she did see some new faces, a possible result of the advertising campaign. The 82-year-old is in a good position to know; she and her husband, Grover, helped start the festival in 1977 after bluegrass jams outgrew their Darrington home.

“We have quite a few new people that have never been here before,” she said. “Any time that you have new people, it changes a little bit.”

Jones believes some people may not have realized that it’s now relatively easy to reach Darrington, which was left largely isolated immediately after the mudslide. Although the permanent fix to the destroyed section of Highway 530 isn’t scheduled to reopen until October, traffic has been able to travel the road at reduced speed for the past month.

Before that, there was alternating one-lane traffic on the highway and a bumpy Seattle City Light utility access road.

“A lot of people thought the roads weren’t going to be open until October,” said Jones’ grandson, Trevin Bradley, 32.

The bluegrass festival is one of four Stillaguamish Valley events the state has highlighted this summer through a $150,000 advertising campaign.

LIVING WITH CHILDREN

DAILY CROSSWORD

Big changes may cause toddler’s hair pulling

By John Rosemond McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Q: Since our daughter, now 2 years old, was born we have lived with my parents. Being the first and only grandchild, she has been the center of attention.

Several months ago, our son was born, and we moved into our own home. Almost immediately, our daughter began pulling her hair out, sometimes in handfuls.

Doctors have said she does it for attention and we should just ignore it. That’s what we’ve done but it has not stopped. It’s now gotten so bad that I’ve cut her hair because the side she pulls has gotten so short. I just don’t know what to do. Any advice would be appreciated.

A: The idea that a toddler pulls her hair out by the handfuls as a means of seeking attention is unverifiable. It’s the sort of thing that professionals say when they have no explanation but can’t admit it to themselves, much less anyone else. Under those circumstances, “she’s doing it (whatever it might be) for attention” becomes a default

explanation. As such, it’s meaningless and decidedly unhelpful.

It’s unhelpful because it implies that something is wrong in the child’s life; that her parents are failing to meet some critical psychological need. The end result is a lot of parental guilt and anxiety, neither of which are conducive to solving problems involving child behavior of any sort.

Then we come to “just ignore it.” That’s a default recommendation — again, the sort of thing professionals advise when they’re at a loss for advice. The fact is that misbehavior of any sort is very difficult to ignore. It’s harder still to ignore a child who is causing herself harm. Then, when attempts to ignore don’t work (as in your situation), the parents are likely to begin exaggerating the psychological significance of the problem.

The end result is more guilt and more anxiety.

The simple explanation for your daughter’s hair-pulling is “children do odd things, and odd things are more likely when lots of change is taking place in a child’s life.” In short order, you moved from one home to another and a

second child was born. That’s a lot of change. Maybe there’s a relationship between all that change and your daughter’s hair-pulling.

Maybe there isn’t. Maybe she’d be pulling her hair out if you still lived with your parents and she was still the only grandchild. Who knows? Furthermore, why does one need to know?

I’ve had a reasonable amount of success curing hair-pulling in older kids, but toddlers are a different ballgame. The problem is that like nail-biting, hair-pulling can quickly become a habit. So, the trick is to do whatever needs to be done to prevent the habit from developing or, if it’s already developed (as in your daughter’s case), reverse its course.

You said you don’t know what to do, but you’ve already done it: cut her hair. Cut it so short she has nothing to grab and yank. If people are so bold as to ask why her hair’s so short, tell them out of her earshot. You are probably going to have to keep it short for at least a year, until she begins developing interests that keep her hands busy in more constructive ways. Until then, buy her some cute hats.

Dating scene frustrating THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE for strong young woman 43 *Hungarian

ACROSS

1 *Replaceable part of

a lamp

Dear Abby: I am a young woman hoping to find “The One.” But I have come to realize that I’m not the normal female. I don’t get manicures or go shopping. (I hate shopping!) When I meet a guy, he likes that I’m “me,” but if we get serious, then I’m either “too independent,” “too outspoken” or “not girly enough.”

I don’t want to change myself or pretend to be someone I’m not. One minute they like that I’m independent and can fend for myself; the next they don’t like that I don’t depend on them to pay bills, etc.

Why is it always a double standard? Men like strong women until they are with one. Then they can’t handle it. Maybe I’m too much for the men where I live. Is it possible for me to find someone?

— Independent Female In Louisiana Dear Independent Female: Welcome to the wonderful world of dating.

While some may think of dating as a popularity contest, it’s really more like sifting for a gold nugget. It takes a lot of people years to strike gold — and it’s the same with dating.

Is it possible to find someone? Absolutely! But it takes time, stamina and a sense of humor to survive the process.

Dear Abby: I had a baby girl a month ago and I live with my in-laws. My husband isn’t here right now because of his job.

They are great and very helpful, but I never have any private time with my daughter. Every time she cries, my sisters-inlaw pick her up. When she wants to sleep, they always take her away from me to put her to sleep.

Even when I breastfeed, they are always in the room with me.

I can’t seem to tell them no or ask them to get out of the room. I mean, they are very helpful, and they are leaving in a month for another country, so I understand they want to be with her as much as they can.

However, I would still like some time alone with my daughter. Advice? — New At This In Houston Dear New At This: As a mother, it’s up to you to assert yourself and do what is right for your baby. Find the courage to tell your in-laws that you are grateful for their assistance but want privacy when you nurse the baby.

It is important that your daughter bond with YOU, and if your sisters-in-law are always tending to her needs, it may be more difficult for you when they leave. I’m sure your pediatrician would back you up.

West won and led a heart.

South lost a finesse to East’s king but later threw a heart on dummy’s fourth club. Making four.

I often hear silly remarks about how a six or higher is an encouraging signal, a five or lower is discouraging. In this deal, West can see that East’s eight is his lowest diamond.

Since East had many diamonds from which to choose, West should treat the eight as discouraging — urging a shift — and lead the jack of hearts at Trick Two. South loses two hearts to go down.

Monday’s best bets on TV: ■ Brace yourself, Andi. It’s time for “The Bachelorette: The Men Tell All,” the show that provides a forum for the rejected bachelors to gripe about the season and each other. 8 p.m., ABC. ■ “The Newburgh Sting” is a compelling documentary about a controversial case in which four black men from Newburgh, New Jersey, were arrested in 2009 for plotting to bomb synagogues. But was it an example of FBI entrapment? 9 p.m., HBO. Chuck Barney, Contra Costa Times

Two TV offerings top this week’s releases: ”Debbie Macomber’s Cedar Cove: Season One,” Grade B: Andie MacDowell stars in this sweet cable series based on the bestselling book series by Debbie Macomber.

MacDowell plays municipal Judge Olivia Lockhart in the small town of Cedar Cove. She brings a lot of baggage to the bench having to deal with the death of her son and a divorce.

The test for Lockhart is to keep her professional career in focus while dealing with the potential of new romance.

Macomber says this series was better suited for a cable series than movie because of her readers.

“They love the characters so much that they want me to continue writing about the same characters. And so it seems natural to make the progression, then, from ongoing characters into a TV series,” Macomber says.

The DVD set is being released in time to get caught up before the second season opens July 20 on the Hallmark Channel. ”How The West Was Won: The Complete Second

TODAY IN HISTORY Today’s highlights: On July 21, 1944, American forces landed on Guam during World War II, capturing it from the Japanese some three weeks later. The Democratic national convention in Chicago nominated Sen. Harry S. Truman to be vice president.

On this date: In 1773, Pope Clement XIV issued an order suppressing the Society of Jesus, or Jesuits. (The Society was restored by Pope Pius VII in 1814.)

In 1925, the so-called “Monkey Trial” ended in Dayton, Tennessee, with John T. Scopes found guilty of violating state law for teaching Darwin’s Theory of Evolution. (The conviction was later overturned on a technicality.)

In 1930, President Herbert Hoover signed an executive order establishing the Veterans Administration (later the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs).

In 1949, the U.S. Senate ratified the North Atlantic Treaty.

OFF THE WIRE Season,” Grade B: There was a time when Westerns were a popular genre in feature films and on TV. This epic TV series tried to get fans of both with the 1978 broadcast based on the 1962 film of the same name.

If you like Westerns, then this is a set to own. It follows members of the Macahan family as they face daily struggles to survive and thrive in the American West. These stories are told through an impressive cast topped by James Arness (“Gunsmoke”), Eva Marie Saint (“North by Northwest”) and Bruce Boxleitner (“Tron”) as well as famous guest stars such as Ricardo Montalban, William Shatner, Tim Matheson and Lloyd Bridges.

This six-disc set includes all 14 parts of the 1978 season.

Also new on DVD: “Rio 2”: It’s another finefeathered adventure.

“Under the Skin”: Voluptuous woman (Scarlett Johansson) searches for isolated or forsaken men.

“Clue: A Movie Mystery Adventure”: Young sleuths work together deciphering a series of clues.

“Time Scanners: Petra”:

Team of laser-scanning experts travel to Jordan.

“Sx - Tape”: Found-footage film of lust, possession and destruction.

“Action Adventure Movie Marathon”: Four titles including “Shake Hands With The Devil,” “The Final Option.”

“Open Grave”: Looks at how important memory is to a person’s identity.

“I Escaped From Devil’s Island”: Roger Corman feature starring Jim Brown, Christopher George.

“100 Years of WWI”: Miniseries looks at how military strategy changed through weapon development, advanced intelligence.

“Case Histories Series 2”: Jason Isaacs returns as Jackson Brodie.

“A Day Late and a Dollar Short”: Woman tries bring her family back together before time slips away.

“David Suchet: In the Footsteps of St. Paul”: BBC documentary exploring Christianity’s early years.

“The Junior Spy Agency”: History assignment becomes case for young detectives.

SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY 50 years ago (1964) Dr. Charles H. Trask, son of the late Dr. Leo S. Trask, longtime Everett physician and surgeon, and Mrs. Trask, 604 Maulsby Lane, had opened an office at 3202 Colby Ave. He was a graduate of McGill University and serve two years overseas in the Army Medical Corps.

Charles Dalton Neidigh, son of Charles Neidigh of Darrington, enlisted in the U.S.

Navy recently and was beginning basic training at Great Lakes, Illinois. He graduated from Darrington High School in June.

25 years ago (1989) Since 1973 Marie Call had operated Used Tire Supply out of old ammunition bunkers by the Snohomish County Airport.

Now her lease had run out and she had to figure out how to move 15,000 tires. She had also

made berry pies from vines where guards once patrolled.

A light oil sheen around J Dock at the Everett Marina was dirty and smelled a bit. Port marina administrator Connie Bennett said it appeared the bilge of one or more boats was pumped into the protected marina waters, dumping diesel and other oil products.

No ‘Glee’ in U.K., high court rules Associated Press LONDON — Glum news for “Glee” — Britain’s High Court ruled Friday that the musical TV show must change its name because it breaches the trademark of a chain of comedy clubs.

A judge told Twentieth Century Fox that it had to re-name the series in Britain, though the order won’t take effect until an appeal has been heard.

The studio was sued by Comic Enterprises, which operates a string of venues called The Glee Club.

Judge Roger Wyand ruled in favor of Comic Enterprises in February, saying there was a “likelihood of confusion” between the two brands.

Fox said it would appeal, and argued that ordering a name change would be unnecessary, unfair and disproportionate.

But the judge concluded Friday that “Glee” had to go.

“I find it hard to believe that the cost of the re-titling and publicizing of the new name would be so prohibitive compared to the value of the series,” he said. “I was told many times during the course of the trial how this series is a ‘blockbuster.”’

The judge said it was possible the Court of Appeal would take a different view, so he put the renaming order on hold until appeal judges have analyzed the case.

Comic Enterprises is also seeking damages. The judge said the final amount would be determined later, but ordered Twentieth Century Fox to make an interim payment of $170,000.

American Towers LLC is proposing to construct a 85-foot overall height monopole telecommunications tower at 1810 104th St SE, Everett, Snohomish County, WA, Tax Parcel ID 575200100200.

The new tower structure will not be lit and the tower facility will include a 30’ by 30’ lease area and associated easements, along with a 30-ft buffer surrounding the lease area. American Towers LLC seeks comments from all interested persons on any potential significant impact the proposed action could have on the quality of the human environment pursuant to 47 C.F.R. Section 1.1307, including potential impacts to historic or cultural resources that are listed or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Interested persons may comment or raise concerns about the proposed action by submitting an e-mail to enviro.services@americantower.com. Paper comments can be sent to: American Towers LLC, Attn: Environmental Compliance, 10 Presidential Way, Woburn, MA 01801.

Requests or comments should be limited to environmental and historic/cultural resource impact concerns, and must be received on or before 8/21/14. This invitation to comment is separate from any local planning/zoning process that may apply to this project.

Published: July 21, 28, 2014. EDH576208

Title 30 SCC (The Unified Development Code) was initially adopted in December 2002 and periodically updated. Code correction amendments are intended to rectify minor inadvertent errors in Title 30 SCC which cannot be addressed by the county code reviser through the authority in SCC 1.02.020(2), that are generally nonsubstantive in nature.

General criteria used in determining if a proposal qualifies as a code correction are: Does the proposed correction: 1. Solve an obvious error?

2. Solve a problem or provide consistency?

3. Have a simple need, scope, and result which are obvious and do not require team review?

4. Involve minimal code drafting time?

5. Have limited latitude for interpretation of meaning and generally does not result in corrections to multiple code sections?

6. Have minor implementation consequences?

Lead Agency: Snohomish County Department of Planning & Development Services Threshold Determination: The lead agency for this proposal has determined that it does not have a probable significant adverse impact on the environment. An environmental impact statement (EIS) IS NOT required under RCW 43.21C.030(2)(c). This decision was made after review by Snohomish County of a completed environmental checklist and other information on file with this agency. This information is available for public review upon request.

This DNS is issued under WAC 197-11-340(2); the lead agency will not act on this proposal for 14 days from the date below. Comments must be submitted by August 4, 2014, to the responsible official at the address listed below.

Appeals: This DNS together with the subsequent legislative action by the County Council to amend the County Code may be appealed to the Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board.

THIS DNS MAY BE APPEALED ONLY WHEN SUCH APPEAL IS COMBINED WITH THE APPEAL OF THE UNDERLYING ACTION PURSUANT TO SCC 30.73.100. THE APPEAL MUST BE FILED WITHIN 60 DAYS OF THE PUBLISHED NOTICE OF THE NOTICE OF ACTION ISSUED SUBSEQUENT TO THE FINAL DECISION BY THE COUNTY. The Notice of Action describing the final decision by the County to pursue or not pursue the proposed action will be published in the County’s paper of record. Any appeal must be filed with the Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board, at PO Box 40953 Olympia WA 98504-0953 within 60 days following publication in the paper, or as otherwise stated in the Notice of Action or provided by law.

Rodney misfires

Mariners’ closer fires arrow at end of 8th, blows save in 9th as Angels rally to win 6-5

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Sometimes, that arrow comes around and catches you in the fleshy regions.

Mariners closer Fernando Rodney fired his ritualistic pantomime arrow at the Angels’ bench Sunday afternoon after escaping a jam in the eighth inning.

The eighth inning.

Yes, it was premature. Bad karma. Bad form. Whatever.

The Angels struck back with two runs in the ninth in handing Rodney and the Mariners a tough 6-5 loss at Angel Stadium.

The end came when Grant Green grounded a two-out RBI single up the middle.

“I did that for the fans,” Rodney insisted regarding his arrow at the end of the eighth. “When I came on, they booed me. It’s part of the game.”

So is payback.

Mike Trout and Albert Pujols mimicked Rodney’s arrow shoot in the ninth after Trout scored the tying run on Pujols’ double.

“They did?” Rodney asked.

TONIGHT’S GAME

N.Y Mets at Seattle, 7:10 p.m.

TV: Root (cable) Radio: ESPN (710 AM)

“They got emotional, maybe.

They beat me tonight. That’s all it is. That’s why they did that.”

So ended a wild weekend series that saw the clubs trade extra-inning victories on Friday and Saturday nights. The Mariners blew leads of 3-0 and 5-3 in failing to win the series.

“Rodney is Rodney,” Trout said.

“He’s out there competing. We’re competing against him. It was one of those times we finally got him. He’s got the best of us last few seasons. It was pretty exciting to get him.”

The Los Angeles comeback denied Rodney (1-4) from getting his 200th career save. It was also his third blown save in 30 See M’S, Page C3

McIlroy completes wireto-wire win in British Open

By Barry Svrluga The Washington Post

HOYLAKE, England — It is difficult to ask a 25-year-old in any profession, be he athlete or accountant, to accurately project a career path over the next two decades. There is so much to learn, so many decisions to make, so many directions to travel.

And yet that is what Rory McIlroy left us Sunday after his blitzkrieg here. The particulars of his British Open victory are that he shot a final-round 71 at Royal Liverpool Golf Club, that he

finished at 17-under-par 271, that he beat Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler by two and took his third major championship. The Grand Slam? Only the Masters awaits.

“I never dreamed of being at this point in my career so quickly,” McIlroy said.

Yet he is, in a sport yearning for a transcendent figure. So the questions now fall off the tongue. What next? How many?

A Rory Era? They are worth asking because golf’s one-name stars — Tiger (Woods) and Phil (Mickelson) — are 38 and 44, respectively, with more good golf

SEATTLE — Not that it should come as a surprise, but Seattle is still crazy about its Super Bowl champion Seahawks.

The latest example came Sunday when an announced crowd of 22,000 turned out at Safeco Field for Richard Sherman’s charity softball game.

After being played at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma last season, Sherman’s event filled the entire lower bowl of the Seattle Mariners’ home stadium from one

Sherman’s event featured a litany of Seahawks teammates, including quarterback Russell Wilson, defensive end Michael Bennett, wide receiver Doug Baldwin and safety Earl Thomas. Also playing was Kobe Bryant, who said he hadn’t swung a bat in 20 years.

It certainly didn’t look that way in his first at-bat, with Bryant hitting a solo homer over the temporary fence in the outfield.

Fryer closes strong to win Everett Am Herald news services EVERETT — Joe Fryer led after round one Saturday at Walter Hall Golf Course then closed out the field with an even-par 72 on Sunday at Legion Memorial Golf Course to capture the 2014 Everett Amateur Championship.

Fryer started Sunday’s final round with a two-shot lead over Mike Pasag, with Anthony Allen and Jason Lo four back and Mark Strickland and Rudy Caparas six shots off the lead.

Fryer and Pasag, playing in the final threesome, each played the front nine at 1-over 37. Caparas, playing in the group in front of the leaders, birdied four of the first eight holes and shot a 4-under on the opening nine. Allen was 1-under at the turn.

With only nine holes left in the tournament, Fryer’s lead was only one on Caparas and two on Pasag and Allen.

On the back nine, Fryer birdied the difficult 425-yard 11th hole to regain his two-shot lead on the field, and finished with an evenpar 72.

Fryer completed the twoday tournament with a total of 4-under 140, two shots better than Rudy Caparas. Caparas finished with a closing nine of 36 and final round of 68 (142 total).

Defending champion Mark Strickland made a run with a closing nine of 3-under 33 for a final round 69, good enough for third place. Chris Hatch closed with a 68 to finish in a tie for fourth with Mike Pasag. Anthony Allen finished in fifth place.

The victory in the Everett Amateur caps a great month of golf for Fryer who also won the Seattle Amateur in record fashion two weeks ago. Fryer will be a freshman golfer this fall for Western Washington University. WWU was represented well in the event

by Fryer and current Vikings Mark Strickland, Chris Hatch and Anthony Allen, all finishing in the top six.

Despite poor performance at British Open, Woods wants a spot on U.S. team

By Doug Ferguson

JON SUPER / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Tiger Woods plays out of the rough on the 12th hole during the final round of the British Open at Royal Liverpool in England on Sunday.

unless Woods were to play elsewhere. Europe isn’t appealing, with events in Denmark, the Czech Republic and Italy.

“It would make it tougher for me to pick him if he’s not playing,” Watson said.

Watson is more inclined to see more from Woods before a rush to judgment. Woods has played only six rounds since back surgery to alleviate a pinched nerve that forced him to miss three months, including two majors.

The scorecard showed two triple bogeys and three double bogeys. He said his return at Congressional three weeks ago, where he missed the cut by four shots, was at least a chance to make sure he was pain free and shake off some rust.

The rust was still there “I was certainly expecting it, yes, but I just thought that I know how to play links golf,” Woods said. “I know how to grind it on these golf courses, and hitting the shots I thought I could get around here. I did the

first day. After a bad start I got it back. And unfortunately, as I said, I made too many mistakes with the doubles and triples.”

He said he remained encouraged — the same word he used when missing the cut at Congressional — and even said he could see comparisons to these last two tournaments with a rehab assignment for a baseball player.

“There’s a lot of things I need to work on, but I haven’t been able to work a lot,” Woods said.

“I was down for three months.

So I’m just now starting to come back. ... I’m still building. I’m still working on my game. And I’m getting stronger and faster.”

Woods has missed only one Ryder Cup since his first one in 1997. That was in 2008, when he missed the second half of the season with reconstructive knee surgery. He was a captain’s pick in 2010 by Corey Pavin, following a year of personal turmoil that led to divorce and the hiring of a new swing coach.

McIlroy’s dad, friends cash in Associated Press HOYLAKE, England — Rory McIlroy was not the only winner at the British Open on Sunday.

The BBC said McIlroy’s father, Gerry, and three of Gerry’s friends placed a combined bet of 400 pounds (now $680) in 2004 on McIlroy winning the British Open before he turned 26.

McIlroy was 15 at the time of the wager and is now 25.

The odds were 500-1, so the syndicate looks to collect 200,000 pounds ($340,000) now that McIlroy has lifted the claret jug.

He won by two strokes over Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler.

multiple majors, but only McIlroy is younger than Martin Kaymer’s 29. Only he has, say, 15 more years in his rock-solid prime.

“Golf is looking for someone to put their hand up and try,” he said. “... I want to be that person. I want to be the guy that goes on and wins majors and wins majors regularly, wins tournaments. I’d love to be in that position.”

So consider the position in which he stands right now.

When Jack Nicklaus won the third leg of the career Grand Slam — the PGA Championship in 1963 — he was all of 23.

When Woods won the 2000 U.S. Open for his third leg, he was 24, and he became the youngest winner of all four majors (in the Masters era) later that summer, when he claimed his first British Open. Nicklaus didn’t complete his slam until he was 26. McIlroy’s first chance will come in April at Augusta, when he will still be 25.

“I don’t see any reason why he’s not going to win there,” said Fowler, also 25, who has played with McIlroy at the Masters. “Definitely fits his game. ...

It’s just a matter of time.”

And let’s be clear about the exclusiveness of the group that has won all four. It does not include Arnold Palmer or Tom Watson, both short the PGA. It does not include Sam Snead, who never won the U.S. Open.

Lee Trevino, Walter Hagen, Mickelson — all one leg short.

So the list is five long: Nicklaus, Woods, Ben Hogan, Gary Player and Gene Sarazen.

“I’m looking forward to next

Sunday’s Final Round

Associated Press

HOYLAKE, England — Even after his worst 72-hole finish in a major, Tiger Woods says he would pick himself for the Ryder Cup team.

His first major of the year, and second tournament since March 31 back surgery, wasn’t much of an audition for U.S. captain Tom Watson. Woods was never the same after opening the British Open with a 69.

The mistakes kept piling up, and so did the big numbers, and he closed with a 3-over 75 on Sunday at Royal Liverpool.

“I just made too many mistakes,” Woods said.

He finished at 6-over 294, matching his highest score in the British Open. Only three players had a worse score, including U.S. Open champion Martin Kaymer, and Woods finished in 69th place. His previous worst was a tie for 40th in the PGA Championship last year and the 2012 Masters.

Worse yet, he didn’t even beat the 64-year-old captain.

Watson birdied his last hole for a 68.

“It’s just one day. It’s a snapshot,” Watson said. “It’s not a big deal.”

Still, the concern was clear.

Watson was speaking to the media as Woods was still on the course when he asked if Woods was shooting under par. Told that he was 4 over at the time, Watson said, “That’s not very good.”

Woods still has two tournaments left before the end of Ryder Cup qualifying at the PGA Championship. He is No. 72 in the standings, and aside from winning the final major of the year, his best bet is to be one of Watson’s three picks.

Asked if he would be inclined to pick him if were in Watson’s position, Woods said with a smile, “I would say yes.”

“But that’s my position, my take on it,” Woods said. “He’s the captain. Obviously, it’s his decision. He’s going to field the best 12 players that he thinks will win the cup back. And I hope I’m on that team.”

Woods is unlikely to make the FedEx Cup playoffs unless he picked up top-3 finishes at Firestone and the PGA Championship, and that means Watson would have to judge him on those tournaments

At Royal Liverpool Golf Club Hoylake, England

PETER MORRISON / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland kisses the Claret Jug trophy after winning the British Open at Royal Liverpool in England on Sunday.

April and driving down Magnolia Lane,” McIlroy said, “and trying to complete the career Grand Slam.”

He has but one top-10 finish in six trips to the Masters, but he did lead after each of the first three rounds in 2011. Should he win there, then what?

“We used to say there will never be another Nicklaus,” Mickelson said. “And then along came Tiger. You never want to discount the possibility of someone coming along and dominating.”

To be clear, McIlroy has not yet dominated, not close.

His first major, the U.S. Open at Congressional in 2011, portended great things immediately, but he didn’t post another top-10 finish at a major until he won the 2012 PGA Championship at Kiawah. His 2013 was nearly a complete wash-out. When he missed the cut at both the Irish and British Opens, he was at a low point.

“The ability was still there,” McIlroy said. “That wasn’t it. It was just trying to find a way to make it come out again.”

He salvaged something with a win at the Australian Open in November, got engaged to tennis player Caroline Wozniacki over New Year’s, then broke off the engagement two months ago. That very week, he won the BMW PGA Championship on the European Tour. His frame of mind seemed to change.

“I’ve really found my passion again for golf,” McIlroy said.

“Not that it ever dwindled, but it’s what I think about when I get up in the morning. It’s what I think about when I go to bed.”

Still, he had to deal with whatever presented itself Sunday, when he woke with a six-shot lead.

“The guys have to come get you,” said Woods, who won his most recent Open here in 2006. “... He can afford to play conservatively today. Also, he can afford to play aggressively.”

What next? Fill up the claret jug with red wine and goodness knows what else to celebrate.

Beyond that? How can we tell?

Rory McIlroy is 25, the golfing world at his feet, his future apparently limitless.

Ko wins Marathon with closing birdie Associated Press SYLVANIA, Ohio — Now that she’s officially a millionaire, Lydia Ko joked she’ll have to keep a closer watch on where her paychecks go.

“I’ll probably see that going into my mom’s account,” she said with a laugh, referring to the $210,000 she got for winning Sunday’s Marathon Classic.

The 17-year-old broke free from a late tie with So Yeon Ryu, hitting a wedge to 4 feet for birdie on the 72nd hole to take the lead.

Then she tried in vain — she’s just 5-foot-5 — to see past the large gallery at 18 as Ryu missed a 6-foot birdie putt on the final hole that would have forced a playoff.

She became the youngest player to top $1 million in career earnings on the LPGA Tour. Ko is roughly 17 months younger than Lexi Thompson, previously the youngest. Ko has shown incredible consistency in her rookie year on tour, making the cut in all 15 tournaments she’s entered. She has six top-10 finishes in addition to her wins, with five of those being top-fives.

Signs point to Ramirez as starter against Mets

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Seattle Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon still isn’t ready to identify his starting pitcher for Tuesday’s game against the New York Mets, although signs point to righthander Erasmo Ramirez being recalled from Class AAA Tacoma.

“I’m not sure what we’re going to do,” McClendon insisted. “I would probably say in all likelihood, we’ll probably call up somebody from Triple-A. I’m not ready to release the name yet.”

The Mariners are also considering pushing Hisashi Iwakuma and Felix Hernandez back one day in their rotation. That would position them to start Thursday and Friday against Baltimore.

But doing do would also require the Mariners to find a starter for Wednesday’s series finale against the Mets.

Ramirez pitched last Thursday for the Rainiers, which puts him in line to start Tuesday on regular rest. The Mariners have already confirmed rehabbing lefty James Paxton will start Tuesday for Tacoma.

Ramirez opened the season in the big-league rotation and was 1-4 with a 4.58 ERA in 11 starts.

He is currently 2-4 and 4.12 in nine starts at Tacoma.

Working overtime The Mariners played successive extra-inning games Friday and Saturday for the 42nd time in franchise history. But it was the first time in nearly 19 years that both games went at least 12 innings.

The Angels won 3-2 in 16 innings on Friday, before the Mariners answered Saturday with a 3-2 victory in 12 innings.

The last time the Mariners played at least 12 innings on back-to-back games was July 19-20, 1995 at Milwaukee. They also split those games, losing 7-6 in 12 innings before winning 4-2 in 13 innings.

Short hops It was the Mariners’ sixth walk-off loss of the season and second in three days at Angel Stadium. The Mariners have 12 walk-off losses at Anaheim since 2009. ... Fernando Rodney had converted 16 straight save situations prior to Sunday. His last blown save was May 13 against Tampa Bay. ...

Kyle Seager’s homer in the first inning with his first of the season against a left-handed pitcher (Tyler Skaggs). ...

Grant Green’s game-winning single as the first walk-off hit of his career. ... The Mariners hold a 7-5 edge in the season series with seven games remaining. They have not won the season series from the Angels since going 11-8 in 2003.

Looking back It was 26 years ago Monday — July 21, 1988 — that the Mariners acquired outfielder Jay Buhner and pitchers Rick Balabon and Troy Evers from the New York Yankees in exchange for first baseman Ken Phelps.

Balabon and Evers never played in the majors, but Buhner spent 14 years with the Mariners before retiring in 2001.

Buhner remains among the franchise all-time leaders in several categories. He ranks third in homers (307), RBIs (951) and extra-base hits (557); and fourth in games (1,440), at-bats (4,992), hits (1,255), doubles (231).

On tap The Mariners open a seven-game homestand at 7:10 p.m. Monday with the first of three games against the New York Mets at Safeco Field.

Lefty Roenis Elias (8-8 with a 3.15 ERA) is expected to face lefty Jonathon Niese (5-4, 2.96). Niese is currently on the disabled list because of a strained left shoulder but is expected to be activated prior to the game.

The series continues Tuesday night and Wednesday afternoon before the Baltimore Orioles arrive Thursday for a four-game weekend series.

Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano, shown on the field before Friday’s game against the Angels, missed Sunday’s game because of soreness and tightness in his hamstrings.

Cano gets a day off

Second baseman expected to return to lineup tonight

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ANAHEIM, Calif. — Some post-break aches, amplified by 28 innings over the two previous days, left the Seattle Mariners short-handed in Sunday’s 6-5 loss to the Angels.

Second baseman Robinson Cano wasn’t in the lineup because he is, in manager Lloyd McClendon’s words, “tight and sore” in his hamstrings.

The ailment isn’t believed to be serious. Cano was in the on-deck circle as a possible

pinch-hitter in the seventh inning and is expected to play Monday when the Mariners open a three-game series against the New York Mets.

“He needs a day off,” McClendon said. “His legs (hamstrings) are tight. It’s been a tough grind for him. He played (in) the AllStar Game and traveled. It just makes sense, after 28 innings, to get him off his feet.”

Cano said he’ll play Monday, declaring: “Yeah, I’m good.”

Left fielder Dustin Ackley remained in the lineup but is battling a recurrence of bone

spurs in his left foot. It’s an ailment that traces back to his college days at North Carolina.

“It’s fine once I get moving,” Ackley said. “But four days off (for the All-Star break) and then two long games (aggravated the condition).”

McClendon said reliever Danny Farquhar didn’t pitch Saturday in a save situation in the 12th inning because of “soreness” that surfaced Friday after pitching two innings.

Farquhar said:“Yeah, my elbow, but I could have gone an inning (Sunday). Not multiple (innings), but an inning.”

chances. Joe Thatcher (1-1) got the victory after pitching a scoreless ninth inning.

“It was a tough loss,” Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon said, “but we’ll move on. We’ve had a lot of tough losses. This is certainly not one we’re going to dwell on.”

McClendon said he didn’t see Rodney’s eighth-inning arrow shoot, which put him among a select few at Angel Stadium.

“He woke up our dugout,” Green said. “He did it with Trout, Pujols, Josh coming up, you don’t want to get them fired up or more wanting to get a hit than they normally do.”

Let’s reset.

The Mariners jumped to a 3-0 lead in the first inning against Angels starter Tyler Skaggs, who surrendered a two-out homer to Kyle Seager before yielding two more runs on four straight singles.

Los Angeles nicked Mariners starter Chris Young for one run in the first before pulling even when Kole Calhoun and Trout opened the third inning with back-to-back homers.

“Calhoun, that was a bad pitch,” Young said. “Trout, I fell behind 1-0 and was trying to get back in the count. He’s normally pretty patient until he gets a strike, but he jumped on that. Sometimes, it’s going to happen.”

The Mariners positioned Young for a victory by breaking a 3-3 tie in the seventh inning after Corey Hart led off with a walk against Skaggs.

Pinch-runner James Jones took second on Dustin Ackley’s hard grounder to second and scored when Mike Zunino broke a zero-for-25 skid with an RBI double into the left-center gap.

Endy Chavez extended the lead to 5-3 by driving a twoout RBI single to left. It was his first hit this season in 23 atbats against left-handers, and it finished Skaggs, who gave up five runs and eight hits in 6 2⁄3 innings.

Young handed that two-run lead to Yoevis Medina to start

SPOKANE — Designated hitter Corey Simpson hit a two-out, two-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to lift the Everett AquaSox to a 3-2 Northwest League victory over the Spokane Indians on Sunday.

Spokane’s John Fasola retired the first two AquaSox batters in the ninth before Everett third baseman Kyle Petty singled to right field. Simpson followed with his fifth home run of the season, a shot over the left field wall, to give the AquaSox their 11th victory in 37 games.

Everett’s Kody Kerski pitched a scoreless bottom of the ninth, walking one batter, to pick up his first save of the season.

Luiz Gohara started for the AquaSox, allowing one run on four hits while striking out five and walking one in six innings.

Reliever Vinny Nittoli (1-1) picked up the victory for Everett, allowing one run on three hits in two innings.

Spokane starter Richelson Pena allowed one run on five hits while striking out four and walking one in seven innings.

The AquaSox took a 1-0 lead in the second inning, scoring on an RBI groundout by Kristian Brito.

The Indians tied the score in the sixth on a home run by Saquan Johnson, and took a 2-1 lead in the eighth on an RBI single by Luke Tendler.

Angels second baseman Howie Kendrick looks down at the Mariners’ Kyle Seager after Seager was tagged out while trying to steal second base in Sunday’s game.

the seventh.

Medina worked himself into a quick jam by yielding a oneout single to Trout and hitting Pujols in the side. Medina struck out Josh Hamilton but yielded an RBI single to Howie Kendrick.

When the ball skipped off the glove of shortstop Brad Miller and into center field, it ended Medina’s scoreless streak at 161⁄3 innings over 20 games.

Medina held the lead by retiring Freese on a grounder to second.

Joe Beimel replaced Medina to start the eighth and gave up a leadoff single to Efrem Navarro.

After Green flied out, the Mariners called on Rodney for a five-out save.

Chris Iannetta struck out, and Calhoun flied out to deep center. When Chavez clutch the ball for the out, Rodney turned toward the Angels’ bench and pantomimed drawing back his imaginary bow.

“I think it was just one of those things,” Zunino said.

“Forgetting what time of the game it was. We’ve played so many innings the last three days that I think everyone was losing track.”

That’s good teammate stuff, but the Angels weren’t buying it.

“Fernando is animated,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. “Our guys noticed it.”

Rodney (1-4) started the ninth inning by walking Trout, who raced around with the tying run when Pujols flicked a double that fell safely along the right-field line.

That’s when Pujols and Trout did their arrow shoot.

“I know Rodney for 15 years,” Pujols said, “and every time I see him, I tell him I’m going to do that to him if I get a big hit against him. That’s why he was laughing. That’s his thing.”

Hamilton followed by flicking a single into left that moved Pujols to third. Rodney then issued an intentional walk to Kendrick that loaded the bases with no outs.

The Mariners had a chance to get the game to extra innings when David Freese grounded into a short-home-first double play. Another intentional walk to Navarro reloaded the bases.

That got the game to Green, who punched a grounder past a diving Miller.

“I made a good pitch and got a ground ball,” Rodney said, “but we didn’t get the out.

That’s part of the game.”

The sharp-end-of-the-arrow part.

ACC spotlight shines on FSU QB Winston

AUTO RACING | Roundup

F1 leader Rosberg wins German GP

By Brendan Sonnone Orlando Sentinel

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Gnawing on the wrapper he peeled off his water bottle about 15 minutes earlier, Jameis Winston looked right through the surrounding swarm of reporters.

The buzz and anticipation leading up to Winston’s interview session Sunday at the ACC Football Kickoff was palpable. About 70 media members gathered to talk to Florida State’s Heisman Trophy winner, many skipping conference commissioner John Swofford’s address so they could get front-row seats to the Jameis Winston Show.

As the hour-long session went on, the same buzzwords and phrases were repeated over and over: complacency, spotlight, off-field. Eventually, the words from the media contingency became muffled white noise for the sophomore. Winston zoned out on three occasions, staring at the table in front of him or out across the room, oblivious that a reporter had even asked him a question.

“Man, my ADD was kicking in,” Winston said as he walked away, off to do another hour of television and radio interviews.

This is a sampling of what Winston will face in the upcoming 2014 season. Expectations are unfathomably high as FSU aims to repeat as national champion while Winston could become the second player to win a second Heisman Trophy. He will be closely analyzed and scrutinized for what he does on and off the field every step of the way, and there is widespread interest to see how he responds to it.

Winston understands this imminent narrative, which is already bordering on cliche. But it’s part of the burden that comes with being a quarterback and a public figure, and he sees no use in fighting it.

“I don’t have a problem with the spotlight because I want to be in that situation,” Winston said. “I was telling the guys that I would rather be in a bad situation than them because I know I’m going to handle it and I know they’re going to be there for me. So I have no worries.”

The past year has been tumultuous at times for Winston. In addition to the good he did on the field, there were ugly incidents off it. It became public knowledge that he was accused of sexual assault, although the state attorney’s office never charged him. He was also cited for stealing seafood from a Tallahassee supermarket this past spring.

“I’ve learned from my mistakes,” Winston said when asked about the shoplifting incident.

“Like I always say, the leadership I’ve gained from my past mistakes, I’ve gotten better.

“Everyone is always going to be watching you and you have to do the right thing.”

Winston said he understands why some doubt that he’s learned from his mistakes and is working to become more mature. Those close to him say he’s handled the past year well and think he will be able to adequately deal with the increased expectations and pressure this upcoming season.

Even with all the media attention he’s seen and will continue to see, Winston has remained poised.

“He deals with it pretty well,” said FSU cornerback P.J. Williams as he watched Winston answer question after question. “He’s always humble, he’s never cocky or anything like that. It’s funny to me to see a lot of people coming up to him. It’s cool.”

Winston said: “I understand what it is to be a leader and I’m trying to better myself everyday to hold myself out as a standard.

I’m on a pedestal. Other players don’t get the pleasure of being on a pedestal.”

Being on the pedestal means Winston will sometimes have to repeatedly answer the same question or that he will receive harsh criticism as a player and person. It may get old to him, but Winston says he is ready for it.

New Zealand’s Jack Bauer, who rode in the two-man breakaway all of the race, is comforted by teammates as he cries after being caught by a group of sprinters in the last meters of the 15th stage of the Tour de France on Sunday.

Agony of defeat

Bauer cries after victory is snatched from his grasp

By Jamey Keaten Associated Press

NIMES, France — Almost at the line, Jack Bauer and Martin Elmiger were exhausted but could see it coming — their first Tour de France stage victory.

Those last 50 meters, however, got in the way.

A bunch of sprinters leading the pack came speeding like a runaway train and plowed past the huffing breakaway duo in the final milliseconds. Stage 15 belonged to Norwegian speedster Alexander Kristoff, his second stage victory in this Tour.

The 138-mile (222-kilometer) stage went smoothly for overall leader Vincenzo Nibali of Italy.

He made sure his main rivals couldn’t claw back any time, and he kept his yellow jersey by finishing in the trailing pack.

After two days in the Alps, Sunday’s stage offered some relief over a flat course from Tallard, southeast France’s parachuting capital, toward Nimes, known for its Roman arena and bullfighting. More relief comes Monday — a second rest day.

This ride showed yet again on the Tour how mighty efforts so often go unrewarded.

Bauer is a New Zealander who had a better shot of holding off the sprinters than Swiss champion Elmiger. Bauer dropped his bike after the finish line, sat on the ground and cupped his face in his hands, crying. They had led nearly from the starter’s gun.

“It’s a fantasy for any cyclist to win a stage at the Tour and especially for a Kiwi cyclist, not many of us turn professional and not many of us get a chance to start the Tour de France,” Bauer said.

The 29-year-old rider came to the Tour to help GarminSharp leader Andrew Talansky, who dropped out before Stage 12 because of injuries from an earlier crash.

The pack perfectly timed its move on the breakaway duo and proved too strong. Bauer was pedaling with his last remaining strength, and when he looked back a last time they were already zooming by. He finished in 10th place, with Elmiger 16th.

“I really gave it absolutely everything, and as you can see from my meltdown at the finish I was pretty disappointed to come away empty-handed,” Bauer added, noting he’s usually a support rider. “I thought

Sunday at a Glance NIMES, France — A brief look at the 15th stage of the Tour de France on Sunday: Stage: A long, flat transition stage that took riders out of the Alps, across the lavender fields of Provence and into the ancient Roman city of Nimes near the Mediterranean coast. Riders began the 222-kilometer (138-mile) race under sunny skies in Tallard but the stage ended in a stormy downpour.

Winner: Alexander Kristoff of Norway. The 27-year-old Team Katusha sprinter led a rushing pack past the day’s two-man breakaway in the final meters, winning in a time of just under five hours. Australia’s Heinrich Haussler was second and Slovak Peter Sagan was third, in the same time.

Yellow Jersey: Vincenzo Nibali finished safely in the pack, leaving his overall lead unchanged at 4:37 over second place Alejandro Valverde of Spain. Frenchman Romain Bardet remains in third place at 4:50.

Quote of the day: “Of course, that’s a pity for them.

But I don’t feel sorry for them. Today, normally the break(away) should never have had a chance. But they did. They were really strong guys.” — Kristoff, paying tribute to Jack Bauer and Martin Elmiger, the two escapees who spent the entire stage on a breakaway only to be caught in the final meters.

Next stage: Riders will get a chance to recuperate on Monday, the race’s second and final rest day before the final push through the Pyrenees and on to Paris.

Associated Press

I had it, but then I realized in the last 50 meters that I had nothing.”

The Swiss rider with IAM Cycling took it more in stride.

This, after all, wasn’t the first breakaway to fail in this Tour.

“I am not disappointed because I actually did not have the best legs today,” Elmiger said. “Being caught by the pack is not so bad when you are convinced you have given everything. As I have already said three times this Tour after breaks have failed, one of these days the wheels will turn in my favor.”

Kristoff, a Katusha rider who also won Stage 12, sighed in relief.

“It was a little bit late for comfort. It was very close,” he said.

“I thought I would be second. ...

We turned on the gas.”

“Of course, that’s a pity for them, but I don’t feel sorry for them,” he said. “Normally, the break should never have had a chance, but they did. They were really strong guys. ... That must have been really hard.”

With about 12 miles (20 kilometers) left, rain briefly doused the riders, though skies brightened by the end. A series of roundabouts and leg fatigue among the sprinters after the Alpine stages gave an advantage to the breakaway pair until the final seconds.

Nibali kept his main rivals for the Tour title at bay. He leads Spain’s Alejandro Valverde by 4:37 while Romain Bardet of France is third, 4:50 behind.

American Tejay van Garderen is fifth, 5:49 back.

Nibali, the leader of Kazakh team Astana, is in good shape to take the yellow jersey when the three-week race ends next Sunday in Paris. Some of his closest rivals have already said the race is now for second place.

The Italian has shown savvy — gaining time on cobblestone patches in Stage 2 — and nearly insurmountable dominance on high climbs. He won Stage 13’s entree into the Alps and was second a day later, also in the snow-capped mountains.

On Sunday, Nibali showed he wasn’t leaving any chances to his rivals. With about 39 miles (65 kilometers) left, he sped out of the pack and briefly took the lead.

“At that moment, there was a lot of side wind,” he said.

“I really didn’t want to miss the good opportunity and try to move up into position ... because when there’s wind, you have to be at the front.”

More grueling climbs loom in the Pyrenees this week before the only individual time trial of this Tour on Saturday.

HOCKENHEIM, Germany — Nico Rosberg won the German Grand Prix on Sunday to stretch his lead in the Formula One drivers’ championship over Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton, who finished third after starting 20th.

“It’s an amazing feeling to win at home. It’s a very special day,” said Rosberg, who led throughout to become the first German to triumph at Hockenheim since Michael Schumacher won in 2006.

Hamilton, who crashed in qualifying and survived a number of scrapes throughout the race, could not pass Valtteri Bottas in the closing laps and the Finn took second to give Williams its 300th F1 podium finish.

“It was not easy and required input from all the engineers.

Thanks to all the fans. I saw many Finnish flags so thank you,” Bottas said.

Hamilton was pushed back to the penultimate row of the grid due to his qualifying crash and a penalty for changing his gearbox, but threaded his way through the field despite a broken front wing caused by a collision with former teammate Jenson Button of McLaren.

His super-soft tires wore quickly in his final stint and he did not have the grip to get past Bottas. Rosberg leads Hamilton by 14 points going into next weekend’s race in Hungary.

Four-time defending champ Sebastian Vettel was fourth, ahead of Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso who won his exciting battle with Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo for fifth.

Alonso and Force India’s Nico Hulkenberg, who finished seventh, are the only drivers to have scored points in each of the ten races so far this season, and the Spaniard’s points finish means Ferrari has finished in the points for 77 consecutive races.

Conway, Bourdais win TORONTO — Mike Conway has won the second race of IndyCar’s doubleheader at Toronto, where rain forced the series to run both races.

The first race was washed out on Saturday and ran a little more than five hours before the second race.

Rain again played a role as a brief shower soaked the track and forced teams to use varying tire strategies to combat the slick surface.

Conway was one of the first drivers to replace the rain tires when the track began to dry, and it put him in position to win a race that had been dominated by Team Penske drivers Helio Castroneves and Will Power.

“It was really difficult conditions and we were kind of struggling for a bit,” Conway said. “As soon as I saw the path and a dry line, I knew it was time to come in (for dry tires).

It was great from there and we just kind of took off and just controlled the race.”

It was the second win of the season for Conway, who walked away from IndyCar at the end of 2012 season because he no longer wanted to race on ovals. He was hired this year to split the seat with driver/owner Ed Carpenter, who was willing to give up his car on road and street courses.

Sebastien Bourdais won the first race, ending a drought that dated to 2007.

Todd claims Top Fuel win MORRISON, Colo. — J.R. Todd earned his first Top Fuel win of the season and first since 2008, by racing to victory at the Mopar Mile-High Nationals at Bandimere Speedway.

Todd outran Brittany Force with a pass of 3.878 seconds at 317.87 mph to the losing pass of Force at 3.968 at 297.35. This is the second win at Bandimere Speedway for Todd, who claimed his first career NHRA Drag Racing Series win at the facility in 2006.

“These things are hard to come by whether you are full time or part time,” said Todd, who returned to racing full time this season at the event in Gainesville.

Robert Hight (Funny Car), Allen Johnson (Pro Stock) and Andrew Hines (Pro Stock Motorcycle) were winners in their respective categories at the NHRA Drag Racing Series event outside of Denver.

In Funny Car, Hight was able to defeat team owner John Force for his fifth win of the season and 34th of his career. In the final, Hight, driving his Ford Mustang, won over Force with a run of 4.166 at 306.05 to the losing effort of 5.953 at 121.42.

In Pro Stock, Johnson defeated his teammate Jeg Coughlin for his fourth win of the season and sixth at Bandimere Speedway. Johnson’s Dodge Dart won the race when Coughlin red lit at the start of the race. Johnson went on to record a pass of 6.930 at 198.61.

Bills GM concerned with DT Dareus’ latest setback Associated Press PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Bills general manager Doug Whaley’s patience is growing thin after starting defensive tackle Marcell Dareus experienced his latest offseason setback by failing a pre-training camp conditioning test.

“It’s cause for concern,” Whaley told The Associated Press after the Bills held their first practice — minus Dareus — in suburban Rochester on Sunday night.

“You always are disappointed when one of your guys isn’t ready. But we think he’s not far off. So hopefully sooner than later.”

Whaley then expressed confidence in Dareus, whose string of troubles include drug possession and reckless driving charges in two separate arrests in May. The Bills placed Dareus on the active/nonfootball injury list on Saturday because the 2011 first-round draft pick did not report to camp in shape, coach Doug Marrone announced shortly before the start of practice Sunday.

Sherman From Page C1

tremendously and it’s humbling, it’s not something you can put into words,” Sherman said before the game started. “You don’t wake up one day and be like I’m going to have Kobe Bryant, Nate Robinson, Lawyer Milloy playing in my softball game, and Macklemore. It’s something that happened and you’re numb to the feeling until like years later when you realize that was a pretty incredible event.”

Sherman was able to draw from a wide cross section of Seattle sports stars to participate in the event to benefit his foundation. Along with current NBA players Bryant, Robinson and Jamal Crawford, former Seattle SuperSonics stars Shawn Kemp and Gary Payton took part, as did Chris Hansen, the investor hoping to bring the NBA back to Seattle.

“He’s a psycho like me,” Bryant said of Sherman. “I think it’s just mutual respect and I have a great amount of respect for people who work at their craft. When him and I met, we just talked and hit it off.”

Bryant said it was his first time back in Seattle since the departure of the SuperSonics for Oklahoma City after the 2008 season. After earlier saying the Eagles were his favorite NFL team, Bryant admitted he needed to make up for that statement.

“I’ve always enjoyed coming here. I’d much rather come here in the postseason than Oklahoma,” Bryant said.

Priefer fortunate to keep job

Vikings special teams coach was suspended three games for homophobic remarks

By Chip Scoggins Star Tribune

M

ike Priefer is a lucky guy today. Yes, lucky.

If he worked for another employer, the Vikings special teams coordinator might be out of a job. Instead, he will only serve a three-game suspension — two, if he completes certain conditions — for making hurtful remarks about gays and then lying about his comments to anyone who would listen.

Priefer is lucky his insensitive comments didn’t get him fired because the Vikings would have been justified in doing so. Based on both his comments and his steadfast denial in the aftermath, the team certainly had grounds to dismiss Priefer, and I would have supported it.

A six-month investigation into Priefer’s comments to former punter Chris Kluwe brought an apology from Priefer, who also must accept his suspension and the national embarrassment that comes with an admission that he made this hideous remark: “We should round up all the gays, send them to an island, and then nuke it until it glows.”

Priefer told investigators that he only made that comment as a joke “between three people, three men.”

Funny stuff, huh?

Kluwe isn’t free of stench in this case, though. The release of the report prompted an admission by Kluwe’s camp that he made some “offensive” comments to people inside the organization. Specifically, Kluwe acknowledged on Twitter Friday night that he made a disparaging joke about the Penn State child-abuse

scandal because a Vikings strength coach went to school there.

Does anyone find what Jerry Sandusky did even remotely comical? You can’t paint Kluwe as a sympathetic figure in light of that revelation.

This whole Kluwe-vs.

Priefer/Vikings saga reeks of idiotic juvenile behavior by supposed adults. Or “men,” as Priefer would say.

Maybe this stuff passes as comedy in an NFL locker room, but nobody looks good in this situation. Not Kluwe, not the Vikings, certainly not Priefer, although he’s still employed so he should feel grateful for that.

Personally, I feel bad for the one person caught in the middle of this mess, veteran long snapper Cullen Loeffler, as nice a guy as you will find in that locker room. Loeffler confirmed the “nuke” comment to investigators, which forced Priefer, his position coach and immediate supervisor, to admit to investigators that, yes, he may have made

that remark.

That should make things fairly awkward in that relationship this season.

At least we now know the truth. Until the release of the report, this has been nothing more than a he-said-he-said stare down.

Kluwe dropped a bomb on the organization with his post on the website Deadspin in January. Later that evening, Priefer released a terse statement to the team’s beat writers.

Here’s what he wrote that day: “I vehemently deny today’s allegations made by Chris Kluwe. I want to be clear that I do not tolerate discrimination of any type and am respectful of all individuals. I personally have gay family members who I love and support just as I do any family member. The comments today have not only attacked my character and insulted my professionalism, but they have also impacted my family.”

And here was what Priefer wrote Friday: “I owe an

apology to many people — the Wilf family, the Minnesota Vikings organization and fans, my family, the LGBT community, Chris Kluwe and anyone else that I offended with my insensitive remark. I regret what has occurred and what I said. I am extremely sorry but I will learn from this situation and will work on educating others to create more tolerance and respect.”

So here’s a question: Do you believe Priefer would have admitted to making that statement if Loeffler hadn’t told investigators the truth? Easy answer, right?

That’s why Priefer is lucky the Vikings are giving him a second chance.

As far as Kluwe’s belief that the Vikings cut him strictly because of his advocacy for gay marriage, I don’t buy it. To the contrary, owner Zygi Wilf applauded his work in this area.

The organization absolutely had grown tired of Kluwe’s outspokenness on a number of issues, but they also considered his age, his performance and his salary — all factors working against him — in deciding to make a change.

That’s one argument Kluwe can’t win because it’s impossible to prove, without any shadow of a doubt, why he was released.

Apparently, the report won’t bring resolution to this case. Kluwe told the Star Tribune on Friday that he still plans to sue the Vikings, so this saga could drag on. And this dark cloud will follow the Vikings to training camp in Mankato this coming week, an unwelcome distraction for first-year coach Mike Zimmer.

As sad as it sounds, this ugly situation could become even messier before it’s over.
