School funding in court The Supreme Court will determine if the Legislature will be held in contempt for failing to create a spending plan.

OLYMPIA — Washington lawmakers didn’t give the Supreme Court what it asked for this

year — a detailed plan for how they intend to fully fund public schools.

Now, on Wednesday, their lawyers will be in front of the justices urging them to be patient

are served.

The rare public clash of two branches of government could reveal how far justices will go to force lawmakers to approve billions of additional dollars for schools — and how hard the 147 lawmakers will push back.

The Everett police detectives brought the soggy mess back to the lab. It would take them weeks of tedious work in 2009 to recover the video footage stored on the hard drive.

Eventually the computer would give up images of the 16-year-old arsonist, who caused more than $2 million in damage and left dozens of people out of work. The boy was identified after the images were released and people who recognized the teen called police.

For detectives and a civilian specialist inside the Everett Police Department’s forensics investigations unit, pulling evidence from damaged computers is just part of a complicated job that is constantly changing.

“We have more work than we can handle,” detective Steve Paxton said.

The investigators are tasked with uncovering information stored in cellphones, surveillance systems, home computers, cameras and whatever other popular devices are on the market. They recover emails, photographs, text messages and video and audio footage, all documenting the lives of suspects, witnesses and victims. They also photograph crime scenes.

They help identify bank robbers and shoplifters, lifting still images from surveillance cameras that capture the comings and goings at businesses. They help prosecute people who download child porn from the Internet and store it on cellphones. They

Music4Life, which collects, repairs and distributes gently used band and orchestra instruments to students whose families can’t afford them, is expanding to the Everett and Mukilteo school districts.

The program began seven years ago in the Seattle School District. Later, the Highline and Shoreline school districts joined.

The first program in Snohomish County was launched about a year ago in the Edmonds School District.

At the time, David Endicott, president of Music4Life, said he would like to have the program available at other Snohomish County school districts, too.

The expansion of the program into the Everett School District was formally announced last week at a lunch meeting of the Everett Rotary Club. Endicott also has met with the Mukilteo Kiwanis Club and the EverettPort Gardner Rotary.

Part of the reason Music4Life is coming to the Everett and Mukilteo districts is the interest shown by Mukilteo Superintendent Marci Larsen, Everett Superintendent Gary Cohn and local volunteers in both communities, Endicott said.

Also, both districts have fairly high numbers of students in the free or reduced price lunch programs, he said. That’s about 41 percent of Everett’s 18,900 students and about 51 percent of Mukilteo’s 15,000 students.

“It’s a worthy cause, absolutely,” said Andy Muntz, spokesman for the Mukilteo School District. “We’ve got a huge music program here.”

Explorer Middle School’s band regularly participates in Seattle’s Thanksgiving parade and in June, the Voyager Middle School band marched in the Portland Rose Festival parade, Muntz said.

Volunteers already are at work in Mukilteo and in Everett to help organize the instrument-sharing program, Endicott said.

Since its founding, there have been donations of 1,000 instruments to Music4Life. One of the most unusual was of a marimba, he said.

The program will accept virtually any musical instrument except pianos and organs. The greatest need is for flutes, violins, clarinets and trumpets.

Both cash and instruments can be donated to either a specific school district or to be allocated as needed.

“The need is so great,” Endicott said. “We’re just beginning to scratch the surface. We’re opening up the world of music to students for the rest of their lives.”

CHICAGO — Could action-packed TV fare make you fat? That’s the implication of a new study that found people snacked more watching fast-paced television than viewing a more leisurely-paced talk show.

Cornell University researchers randomly assigned almost 100 undergraduates to watch one of three 20-minute sessions featuring: “The Island,” a 2005 sci-fi thriller starring Scarlett Johansson and Ewan McGregor; that

“My guess is they’ll probably be looking for some way to keep the pressure on us. What that will entail I can’t say,” said state Sen. David Frockt, D-Seattle, an attorney who intends to be on hand to watch.

The 2 p.m. hearing is scheduled to last 40 minutes and will be carried live on TVW and webcast at tvw.org.

Justices will divide the time equally between attorneys for the state and for the alliance of families and educators behind the school funding lawsuit known as McCleary. It is not known when justices will render a decision.

The Supreme Court ruled in 2012 the state was not meeting its constitutional obligation to amply fund basic education in public schools and depended too much on local school levies to fill the gap. It gave

The students were all provided generous amounts of cookies, M&M candies, carrots and grapes.

During “The Island,” students ate on average about 7 ounces of various snack foods, and 354 calories.

That was almost 140 calories more and nearly double the ounces they ate watching interviewer Charlie Rose.

Watching the movie without sound, they also ate more — almost 100 calories more — compared with Charlie Rose.

lawmakers until the 201718 school year to set things right.

Justices also required lawmakers to provide regular progress reports. In January, the court said it wanted this year’s update to include a plan of how lawmakers intended to meet the deadline.

But the report legislators turned in April 30 did not contain that road map, setting the stage for Wednesday’s hearing.

Thomas Ahearne, attorney for the plaintiffs, is and has been pressing the court to do more than scold the Legislature.

He wants the court to hold the Legislature in contempt, to prohibit it from approving any new unfunded or underfunded mandates for public schools, and to impose even more serious sanctions if lawmakers do not comply with the order for a plan by Dec. 31 “The Supreme Court issues Orders, not suggestions. Yet lawmakers have blatantly disobeyed the Court’s Orders,” Ahearne

said in an email earlier this summer.

Assistant Attorney General David Stolier, representing lawmakers, argued in a brief to the court that the state should not be found in contempt.

Furthermore, the sanctions that are being considered are impractical or beyond the court’s constitutional authority.

He argued lawmakers are working toward a grand agreement in the 2015 session to make real and significant progress on complying with the McCleary ruling. Imposing sanctions is premature, he wrote, because while the state failed to turn in a report, it hasn’t missed its 2018 deadline.

“It is appropriate for the Court to maintain pressure on the Legislature to continue working toward constitutional compliance; it is not appropriate for the Court to hold the State in contempt because the Legislature did not pass a bill or resolution,” he wrote.

If the court decides to impose a sanction he requests it be deferred until after the 2015 legislative session, he said.

“The appropriate remedy is one that results in the enactment of legislation that achieves or is reasonably likely to achieve ‘the constitutionally prescribed end’, ” he wrote.

Ahearne and Stolier aren’t the only ones trying to persuade justices as several individuals and groups submitted “friend of the court” briefs.

criticizing lawmakers for underfunding schools, he urged the Supreme Court to give them a chance to figure it out in the 2015 session.

“The Legislature said (2015) is going to be their big session,” Dorn said in an interview Friday. “I am interested to see if the question is asked of the state, what is, in their mind, significant progress.”

Five former governors — Christine Gregoire, Gary Locke, John Spelman, Mike Lowry and Dan Evans — argued against sanctions in their collective filing.

A contempt finding is a “particularly blunt instrument” with the potential “to derail any partnership en route to the 2018 deadline to fully fund the best education system for Washington’s children,” reads the brief, written

by Rob McKenna, former attorney general and 2012 candidate for governor.

Meaningful action requires time and negotiation among many parties with differing views, they contended.

“While there is a justifiable concern that the Legislature may be running too slowly to cross the ‘finish line’ in time, the people’s representatives should be afforded the chance to make democracy work,” they said.

Ahearne, in response to the governors’ filing, disputed the notion that a lasting agreement can be reached with more time rather than added pressure from the court.

“Needing years for planning hasn’t been the roadblock to constitutionally required progress,” he wrote. “Legislators’ procrastination has been the roadblock.”

Spill interrupts Edmonds ferry service

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EDMONDS — Normal ferry service resumed Monday afternoon between Edmonds and Kingston, after a diesel spill halted most sailings that morning.

Ferry officials said service returned early enough avoid longer-than-normal backups at

the end of the busy Labor Day holiday.

“Typically, the return traffic on the weekends will grow as the afternoon progresses,” state ferries spokeswoman Marta Coursey said.

Ferry workers noticed problems before the day’s first departure out of Kingston at 4:55 a.m. Monday, Coursey said.

They stopped both boats on the run, the Walla Walla and the Spokane, which were in Kingston. They called in the U.S. Coast Guard and an oil-response contractor.

The Spokane was cleared to leave Kingston at 10:25 a.m., Coursey said.

The Walla Walla, where the spill occurred, was cleared to leave at

12:50 p.m., following cleanup.

Throughout the early morning, the ferry system directed holiday travelers to take the Seattle-Bainbridge or SeattleBremerton ferries instead. The Edmonds-Kingston route is the third-busiest in the system and carried nearly 3.9 million passengers last year.

The Coast Guard monitored

Monday’s cleanup effort performed by a contractor for the state. Crews used containment booms around the ferries to prevent the fuel from spreading.

“We received a report at approximately 4:30 a.m. from the ferry service that the ferry Walla Walla had suffered an See FERRIES, Page A4

Bothell to begin work on City Hall

Push and pull It takes a group effort to clear Forest Park of unwanted plants

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — Balancing on a hillside in Forest Park last week, Brandon Ellsworth wielded a long metal tool called a weed wrench like a floor jack in a garage.

But instead of lifting a car, the target was an English laurel about four feet high with a trunk two inches around.

Ellsworth gripped the base of the trunk with the weed wrench, braced the base of the tool in the sandy soil, and pushed the long lever back.

The laurel snaked out of the ground, trailing three feet of sinewy roots.

“This is number six,” Ellsworth said, referencing how many

laurel trees he’d pulled out that week. “But at least they’ll never come back.”

That is the intention, at least in the forested section of the park.

Ellsworth is an AmeriCorps volunteer working under the state Department of Ecology’s Washington Conservation Corps umbrella for Everett’s Parks and Recreation Department.

He and other volunteers were put to work in this area of Forest Park as part of the city’s longterm plans to improve the health of Everett’s largest urban forest.

For the past three years, work crews composed of city staff and volunteers have been working on the slope above Mukilteo Boulevard, pulling out invasive species

BOTHELL — The city will celebrate construction of a new city hall at a groundbreaking ceremony at 10 a.m.

Wednesday at 18305 101st Ave. NE. Part of Bothell’s ambitious vision for downtown revitalization, the new City Hall will be part of a multi-use block known as the City Center. The development team is led by City Investors Development, an affiliate of Vulcan Real Estate.

“This is an historic moment for Bothell, one that has followed over a decade of public discussion,” Mayor Joshua Freed said. “Bothell citizens can be proud that their vision is a success.”

Located in the heart of Bothell’s downtown, the City Hall and multi-use campus is a key element of the city’s downtown revitalization plan that has already attracted more than $200 million in private investment and is expected to stimulate an additional $450 million in private investment.

The new City Hall replaces a building that was built in 1938 at a time when Bothell’s population was approximately 800 people. Bothell’s current population is 41,500. The mixed-use gathering place includes a three-story, 251car parking structure beneath a 53,000 square foot office building and town hall/community meeting rooms.

“Their vision re-imagined Bothell’s historic downtown in a way that would stimulate economic growth and ensure a revitalized downtown reflective of the values and fabric of their community, for current and future generations,” Freed said. “The City Hall is

STANWOOD — With a new director in town, the Snohomish County YMCA is one step closer to building a community gym, meeting space and aquatic center in the northwest corner of the county.

The nonprofit hired Dawne Wentworth, 39, as director of the Stanwood-Camano YMCA. She started her new job Wednesday managing current programs and

planning for a future facility.

“I think the great thing about the YMCA is it can be tailored to fit the needs of the community,” Wentworth said.

She hopes to expand children’s programs and set up new activities for seniors and families in the area.

The organization’s ultimate goal is to build a YMCA in Stanwood or Camano Island, said Scott Sadler, vice president and chief development officer for the YMCA of Snohomish County.

Volunteers have been working toward that goal since 2010, when a privately owned Stanwood gym and pool closed. People initially approached the YMCA because they wanted an aquatic center, like the YMCA in Marysville, where kids could learn to swim and athletes could practice and compete.

However, it quickly became clear that there were other needs and opportunities in the community, Sadler said.

Hiker dies after fall near Spada Lake Herald staff SULTAN — A 56-yearold man died from head injuries overnight after falling during a hike near Spada Lake, the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office said Sunday morning.

A search and rescue helicopter found the man Sunday night about eight miles northeast of the lake, sheriff’s Lt. A.J. Bryant said.

The helicopter team was unable to remove the man from the area Sunda night because of weather and safety concerns. The injured man had been

accompanied by two people; one stayed with him and the other hiked out for assistance. The helicopter returned after daylight Monday and recovered the body, Bryant said.

The accident occurred on a trail near Williams Creek at an altitude of about 2,500 feet. No further information was provided about the circumstances.

The Medical Examiner’s Office is investigating how the man died and has yet to release his identity.

like Himalayan blackberry, ivy, English and Portuguese laurel and holly.

They’re replacing them with trees more appropriate to the area like giant sequoia and Thujopsis dolabrata, a species of cypress, and laying down mulch.

Its a challenge to balance the park’s history with its modern needs, said Geoff Larsen, a city horticulture and forestry supervisor.

Forest Park was developed in the 1930s by the Hall Family along the lines of a traditional English garden: neat rows of holly and laurel, decorative ivy and ornamental conifers.

The problem was that many of those pretty garden plants tend to spread easily, and quickly jumped the confines of the English garden into the surrounding forest.

Larson pointed down a recently worked hillside.

“There were holly trees

an important piece of that vision.”

The vote for a new City Hall by the Bothell City Council was 5-2.

The majority of members felt the new building was necessary, but some people, including Councilwoman Tris Samberg, took issue with the cost.

far have been focused on youth education, Wentworth hopes to add senior health and volunteer programs soon. She is working with local senior centers to learn what activities would be best.

“We like to call it YMCA without walls,” Wentworth said. “It’s really not the building that makes the YMCA, it’s how the programs impact people in the community.”

The YMCA has five facilities in Snohomish County.

growing all over the hillside here,” he said.

Now there are the tall Douglas fir, Sitka spruce and western red cedars from the park’s early days, interspersed with newly planted saplings. Dead trees, or those posing a danger, are removed, but the logs are left on the hillside to help stabilize the slope.

Still, the work is a longterm process. One fallen trunk is all but invisible under a blanket of laurel saplings.

“It’s kind of like a green forest fire, where these large aggressive invasive species have taken over,” Larsen added.

It crowds out understory trees like vine maples and leaves a lot of bare soil underneath, leading to a less stable slope.

Pulling the invasive species from the steep slopes is back-bending work that would be a serious drain on the city’s coffers without the volunteer help.

Pulling all the invasive plants from Everett’s 354 acres of parkland would

cost at least $6.5 million, city officials have estimated, even when relying on volunteer labor.

“It became apparent to us a few years ago that many cities have lost a tremendous amount of resources during the economic downturn,” said Micki McNaughton, the special project coordinator for the state’s Urban Forestry Restoration Project, which manages reforestation projects in 30 jurisdictions across the state and assigns the AmeriCorps crews to various projects.

In 2012, the city and the nonprofit Forterra launched the Green Everett Partnership and developed a 20-Year Forest Management Plan to help restore the health of the city’s wooded areas.

The city provided $70,000 and the Boeing Co. contributed $100,000 to begin the work.

In 2012, a crew of volunteers came from Everett High School’s ROTC program. Last year and this year it was AmeriCorps

volunteers.

The current crew of five volunteers moves from city to city each month. August was Everett’s turn. In September, the crew will be in Snohomish, its home base.

Crew lead Lindsey Juen, 23, was in her element.

A Western Washington University graduate with a degree in environmental policy and planning, she was enjoying pulling out the laurels.

“We’ve been stuck pulling ivy for a while, so it’s nice to have some heavy duty work to do,” she said.

Looking down the slope being slowly cleared of the laurel and holly, she noted, “If these took over there would be nothing to stop (the hillside) from washing out.”

Instead, the picked-over slope will be ready for the fall, when volunteers from Forterra will plant more trees. About 500 have been planted in the park in the past three years.

“We’re replanting with what’s going to be sustainable in 100 years,” Larsen said.

The total bond issue is estimated at $53 million, which includes project costs plus financing and transaction costs.

“The total price tag is significantly higher than the $42 million we were talking about back in 2011, and I am disappointed in that,” Samberg told the Bothell Reporter when the measure was passed.

“The first time the council and the public saw that $53 million price tag was at our June 3 meeting, and it

was shocking.”

City Manager Bob Stowe said the increase in the final cost of the building is simply a result of an increase in cost and labor over time.

“We worked very hard with the members on our development team to make the price tag as low as possible,” Stowe said. “We aren’t here to build the Taj Mahal. Our goal is to build a basic office building that will be an asset to our community and last us 75

years.”

Stowe said bonds for the City Hall project received an interest rate and annual payments significantly lower than what was originally presented in June, reducing the financing period by six years.

The National Development Council will lease back the City Hall to the city. Ownership of City Hall will transfer to the city at no additional cost when the debt is fully paid.

A full-service YMCA typically consists of an aquatic center, gym, teen center, conference rooms and classrooms, including group exercise spaces, Sadler said.

The organization plans to customize the StanwoodCamano YMCA to suit the area.

“The facility plans are still emerging,” Sadler said.

“They’re really going to be driven by the site location and capital fundraising efforts.”

The project budget sits at $18 million, though it may be adjusted after planners decide on a site and draft more specific designs.

A public fundraising

campaign is expected to kick off after a location is identified, he said.

“It’s a big project,” Wentworth said. “It’s an $18 million project. Really, the community needs to continue to rally.”

Getting a director is a step in the right direction, Sadler said. Though YMCA staff and volunteers have been working in the area for four years, Wentworth is the first employee hired to focus specifically on Stanwood and Camano Island.

Wentworth has 16 years of experience with the YMCA. She started at a camp on Orcas Island and most recently worked in Seattle directing YMCA

programs for children from low-income families.

“I like working in a community setting,” Wentworth said. “I just believe in what the YMCA offers, and I believe in the mission.”

The Stanwood-Camano YMCA is accepting ideas, donations and volunteers. The office is located at 8823 Viking Way and is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday. People can call 360-629-9622 or email dwentworth@ymca-snoco. org for more information on how to get involved in the Stanwood-Camano programs.

Detained Americans plea for help

The three want U.S. to negotiate their release from North Korea Associated Press

Texas: 6 die in Dallas crash ASSOCIATED PRESS

From left, Mathew Miller, Jeffrey Fowle and Kenneth Bae, Americans detained in North Korea, were given foreign media access Monday. They called for Washington to send a high-ranking representative to negotiate for their freedom.

Bae’s family worried for his health SEATTLE — The sister of Kenneth Bae, the American missionary held for nearly two years in North Korea, said Monday that she is worried about his health and well-being. Bae, of Lynnwood, is isolated in a labor camp and suffers from severe back pain.

Terri Chung, of Edmonds, said it’s obvious from Bae’s news conference and from the way her brother sat that he is in a lot of pain.

She said the normally cheerful man also has little human contact in the camp. Chung appealed to North Korean officials to show mercy and release her brother, saying he has confessed and served a longer detainment than any other American since the war.

Chung said she is in regular contact with the State Department.

“We know that they are working on something,” she said. “I want to see all the work come to fruition.”

“It’s past time now to bring him home,” Chung said. “He’s an American citizen pleading for help. It’s difficult watching him pleading repeatedly on TV.” Associated Press

his statement added. “We continue to do all we can to secure their earliest possible release.”

Ventrell noted that the State Department has issued a travel warning recommending against all travel to North Korea for U.S. citizens.

Fowle arrived in North Korea on April 29. He is suspected of leaving a Bible in a nightclub in the northern port city of Chongjin. Christian proselytizing is considered a crime in North Korea. Fowle, 56, lives in Miamisburg, Ohio. He has a wife and three children.

“Within a month I could be sharing a jail cell with Ken Bae,” he said, adding that he hasn’t

spoken with his family for three weeks. “I’m desperate to get back to them.”

North Korea says Miller, 24, entered the country April 10 with a tourist visa, but tore it up at the airport and shouted that he wanted to seek asylum. He refused to say whether he was seeking asylum.

Bae, a 46-year-old KoreanAmerican missionary, has been held since November 2012. He was moved from a work camp to a hospital because of failing health and weight loss but last month was sent back to the work camp outside of Pyongyang. He said he has lost 15 pounds and has

severe back pain, along with a sleep disorder. His family has said his health problems include diabetes, an enlarged heart, liver problems and back pain.

“The only hope that I have is to have someone from the U.S. come,” he said. “But so far, the latest I’ve heard is that there has been no response yet. So I believe that officials here are waiting for that.”

Bae said he did not realize before the trial that he was violating North Korean law, but refused to go into details.

He said the lead up to his trial lasted about four months, but the trial itself only took about an hour. He said he elected not to have a defense attorney because “at that point there was no sense of me to get a lawyer because the only chance I had was to ask for mercy.”

“It was very quick,” he said.

Bae seemed healthy but appeared to have significant back pain when he tried to sit down.

The U.S. has offered to send its envoy for North Korean human rights issues, Robert King, to Pyongyang to seek pardons for the U.S. detainees, but without success. Washington has no diplomatic ties with North Korea and no embassy in Pyongyang. Instead, the Swedish Embassy takes responsibility for U.S. consular affairs.

Pro-Russian rebels lower demands The insurgents issue their negotiating platform as talks open the future of eastern Ukraine.

Police said a speeding car slammed into a tree after losing control on a Dallas roadway, killing all six people inside.

Police said the crash occurred Sunday night in southeast Dallas. The victims were two teenage boys, two men and two women ranging in age from 15 to 23. Police said speed was a factor in the crash, but not alcohol.

Ala.: Gun battle kills two Birmingham police said at least 40 rounds were fired during a gun battle outside a motorcycle club that killed two people and wounded two others.

Police said shooting happened shortly after 10 p.m. Sunday outside the Showstoppers Motorcycle Club. The battle started during an argument between members of two motorcycle clubs. No arrests had been made.

Mo.: Police get cameras Ferguson police officers began wearing body cameras over the weekend as marchers took to the streets in the most recent protest of the Aug. 9 shooting by a city officer that left an unarmed teenager dead. Ferguson Police Chief Tom Jackson said his department was given about 50 body cameras by two companies after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown Jr. by Ferguson officer Darren Wilson. The cameras are being assigned to squads, and each officer will get one to use, he said.

AROUND THE WORLD Iraq: Prime minister pledges to root out militants Iraq’s outgoing prime minster pledged Monday to turn his country into “a big grave” for Sunni militants from the Islamic State group and commended security forces for ending the siege of a Shiite town. Nouri al-Maliki made the comments during an unannounced visit to the northern community of Amirli. A day earlier, Iraqi forces backed by Iran-allied Shiite militias and U.S. airstrikes broke a twomonth siege of the town where some 15,000 Shiite Turkmens were stranded.

Hours before the visit, humanitarian aid began flowing to the town.

Mexico: Massive fish kill

By Vldimir Isachenkov and Jim Heintz

Authorities say a mass die-off of fish at a lake in western Jalisco state was not due to natural causes, but the causes are being investigated. One researcher said that low water levels could have been responsible. More than 53 metric tons of rotting fish have been removed from Lake Cajititlan, the state environment department said Sunday. Workers using shovels, a bulldozer, boats and wheel barrels removed the dead fish.

The finger-sized fish are apparently a type of chub.

Associated Press

MOSCOW — Pro-Russian rebels softened their demand for full independence Monday, saying they would respect Ukraine’s sovereignty in exchange for autonomy — a shift that reflects Moscow’s desire to strike a deal at a new round of peace talks.

The insurgents’ platform, released at the start of Monday’s negotiations in Minsk, the Belarusian capital, represented a significant change in their vision for the future of Ukraine’s eastern, mainly Russian-speaking region.

It remains unclear whether the talks can reach a compromise amid the brutal fighting that has continued in eastern Ukraine. On Monday, the rebels pushed Ukrainian forces from an airport near Luhansk, the second-largest rebel-held city, the latest in a series of military gains.

The peace talks in Minsk follow last week’s meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his Ukrainian counterpart, Petro Poroshenko.

Similar talks earlier this summer produced no visible results.

Unlike the previous rounds, this time rebels said in a statement carried by Russia’s state-run RIA Novosti news

U.S. copter crashes; 25 aboard rescued WASHINGTON — A Marine Corps helicopter with 25 aboard crashed Monday in the Gulf of Aden, and all aboard were rescued, the Navy said. The 17 Marines and eight Navy sailors were recovered and were on board the USS Mesa Verde, and some who sustained minor injuries were treated on the ship.

The CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter crashed as it attempted to land on the ship. The Navy said the crash was not the result of hostile activity, but the aircraft was transferring troops back to the ship from training in nearby Djibouti.

By Eric Talmadge PYONGYANG, North Korea — North Korea gave foreign media access Monday to three detained Americans who said they have been able to contact their families and — watched by officials as they spoke — called for Washington to send a high-ranking representative to negotiate for their freedom.

Jeffrey Fowle and Mathew Miller said they expect to face trial within a month. But they said they do not know what punishment they could face or what the specific charges against them are. Kenneth Bae, of Lynnwood, who is serving a 15-year term, said his health has deteriorated at the labor camp where he works eight hours a day.

The three were allowed to speak briefly with The Associated Press at a meeting center in Pyongyang. North Korean officials were present during the interviews, conducted separately and in different rooms, but did not censor the questions that were asked. The three said they did not know they were going to be interviewed until immediately beforehand.

All said they believe the only solution to their situation is for a U.S. representative to come to North Korea to make a direct appeal.

That has often been North Korea’s bargaining chip in the past, when senior statesmen including former President Bill Clinton made trips to Pyongyang to secure the release of detainees.

North Korea says Fowle and Miller committed hostile acts which violated their status as tourists. It has not announced a trial date.

In Washington, National Security Council spokesman Patrick Ventrell said, “We have seen the reports of interviews with the three American citizens detained in North Korea.”

“Securing the release of U.S. citizens is a top priority and we have followed these cases closely in the White House,”

Japan: Toilet paper caution ASSOCIATED PRESS

A mother and child hide in a bomb shelter in the Petrovskiy district in Donetsk, eastern Ukraine, on Monday. The Petrovskiy district of Donetsk is one of the frontline districts which suffered the most from the artillery fights between Ukrainian army and Pro-Pussian rebels.

agency that they are willing to discuss “the preservation of the united economic, cultural and political space of Ukraine.”

In return, they demanded a comprehensive amnesty and broad local powers that would include being able to appoint their own law enforcement officials.

This deal is only for eastern Ukraine.

There are no negotiations on handing back Crimea, the Black Sea peninsula that Russia annexed in March, a move that cost Ukraine several major ports, half its coastline and untold billions in Black Sea oil and mineral rights.

The talks lasted for several hours Monday and were adjourned until Friday, when the parties are to discuss a cease-fire and an exchange of prisoners, rebel negotiator Andrei Purgin said, according to RIA Novosti.

The rebels’ more moderate negotiating platform appeared to reflect Putin’s desire to make a deal that would allow Russia to avoid more punitive Western sanctions while preserving a significant degree of leverage over its neighbor.

Over the weekend, the European Union leaders agreed to prepare a new round of sanctions that could be enacted in a

week, after NATO accused Russia of sending tanks and troops into southeastern Ukraine.

A NATO summit in Wales on Thursday is also expected to approve measures designed to counter Russia’s aggressive actions in Ukraine.

Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said participants in Monday’s talks needed to push for an immediate, unconditional cease-fire.

He rejected claims by the Ukrainian government, NATO and Western nations that Russia has already sent troops, artillery and tanks across Ukraine’s southeast border to reinforce the separatists.

Japan began delivering an unusual message Monday: Don’t wait until it’s too late to think about toilet paper.

The government and paper companies kicked off a “Let’s stockpile toilet paper!” campaign to mark Disaster Prevention Day. Nearly half of the supply comes from one of Japan’s most earthquake-prone areas. Officials said people think of food and water as emergency supplies, but easily forget toilet paper, and get desperate when it’s too late.

Scotland: No panda cub?

Edinburgh Zoo warned Monday that its female giant panda, Tian Tian, may have lost her cub. Hopes were high that Tian Tian, or Sweetie, would give birth at the end of August following artificial insemination in April. But the zoo’s panda expert said Tian Tian is “now past her due date,” and hormone tests showed that “something may be amiss.”

Experts are monitoring her closely.

401(k)s are just too darn confusing

By Walter Hamilton Los Angeles Times

Americans know that 401(k) retirement plans are important, but they spend only a moderate time researching investments and are often confused about how to pick the best funds, according to a new survey.

Nearly 9 in 10 workers view 401(k) plans as

essential employee benefits, far outdistancing disability insurance, extra vacation days and the option to work from home, according to the poll by Charles Schwab Corp.

But the typical employee spends only about two hours analyzing 401(k) choices, roughly half the time spent researching car purchases or vacations.

Half of poll respondents said their 401(k)s are more confusing than the medical plans.

Only about one-quarter of survey participants have sought professional advice with their 401(k)s, according to the survey.

That’s far less than the 87 percent who pay a professional to change the oil in their car.

“With so much at stake, the industry needs to take a more

active role in delivering personalized investment advice to help individuals’ 401(k)s work harder for them,” said Steve Anderson, head of Schwab Retirement Plan Services.

“One-for-all default investments, such as target date funds or balanced funds, can’t be expected to meet the individual needs of workers,” he said. “The industry can do better.”

However, earlier research has shown that employees must be extremely careful about 401(k) advice.

A study by the U.S. General Accountability Office in 2011 found that what passed as education offered by firms running 401(k) plans often was little more than a sales pitch designed to push high-cost investments on unsuspecting employees.

Classic cars: Cash or crash?

Investing in collectable automobiles is far from a simple joyride

By Susan Tompor Detroit Free Press

biz bits

The stock market’s ups and downs could drive some people to look for a new spot to park that money. Maybe hedge one’s bets with classic sheet metal?

Classic cars may be a joy to ride, but as investment vehicles, they involve unique costs (including heated garages in some cases) and risks (your muscle car could lose muscle after a financial meltdown).

Before dreaming up reasons to cruise in a new investment vehicle, consider the road hazards. For every story of someone who made $20,000 selling a 1930s hot rod, another story puts a dent into get-rich-quick dreams.

Take that 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible that accountant James Jenkins bought at auction for $27,500 in the late 1990s. He put an additional $11,000 into that car to refurbish it.

“I always loved those old ‘50s cars. That’s what the super-rich guys are driving,” said Jenkins, the president of an accounting firm.

“The car was just Rodney Dangerfield over the top,” said Jenkins, who drove the convertible about 10 times or so a year.

(And yes, comedian Dangerfield drove a flashy, red convertible in the 1980 movie “Caddyshack.”)

But unhappy with the high cost for maintaining the car, Jenkins sold his red-and-white, two-door head turner around 2002 at auction for $29,500.

Sure, it’s bad enough to sell a

Under the hood What to know about turning a collectible car into cash: The net capital gains tax rate is a maximum 28 percent on profits made from collectibles, such as classic cars and art. If joint adjusted gross income is more than $250,000, a 3.8 percent excise tax also would apply.

Some say buy the best possible car you can in the best condition. Rust can be hard to overcome in a classic car. Restoration can be far more expensive than you’d realize.

Be prepared to spend money on your vehicle. “Be mindful that every single car has issues,” said McKeel Hagerty, president and CEO of Hagerty, which specializes in classic car insurance and values.

Some experts recommend buying a car that you’d love to own and skip the notion of making money overnight. car at about $9,000 or so below costs. But now consider that the car could have been worth about $138,000 today, according to the Hagerty Price Guide.

Just like stock or real estate, investors of collectible cars face the risk of knowing the right time to buy and the right time to sell.

The 1960s muscle car ran strong during 2005 through around 2007, as boomers were looking for the high horsepower they couldn’t afford in their 20s.

But if you needed to sell a muscle car during the recession, you were going to get 25 percent to 30 percent less than you would have a couple of years earlier, said McKeel Hagerty, president and CEO of Hagerty, which specializes in classic car insurance and values.

“It was a definite pullback,” Hagerty said. But muscle cars have made a strong recovery, he said. Yet some see collectible cars

as a “hedge plus an indulgence,” said Tony Richards, 69, who grew up in London but later worked for both Ford and Chrysler. He once ran Lamborghini in Italy when Chrysler owned it and worked on the board of Maserati as the Chrysler representative.

“People like tangible investments, rather than boring paper in a bank somewhere,” said Richards, who retired from Chrysler in 200.

Richards once had two classic Jaguars, a 1956 XK 140 SE Jaguar with a drophead convertible and a 1966 E-Type Jaguar convertible.

He sold both last September.

The scarlet red E-Type sold for around $75,000; he paid $61,000 for it about seven years ago.

He sold the maroon 1956 XK 140 for $145,000; after paying $115,000 for it in 2003.

“I thought the market was pretty high, so I decided to cash out,” Richards said.

But Richards said he thinks he might have sold the cars a little too early and probably a little too cheap.

How much money you might make buying and selling a classic car, of course, depends on the kind of car you buy and how long you keep it. As an investor, you’d want to try to hold onto a collectible car for at least five years in many cases, Hagerty said.

Oddly enough, I recently found a 10-year-old clipping from the Wall Street Journal that listed 50 collectible cars and prices.

Hagerty researched the 2014 prices for me; all those cars would have made some money in 10 years.

A 1971 Mercedes-Benz 280 SE 3.5 — rated a “sell” in 2004 — would be up about 10 percent in value, according to Hagerty. It sells now for around $54,600 vs. about $49,500 in 2004.

The “buys” on the Wall Street Journal’s list in 2004 included a 1970 Ford Boss 302 Mustang priced at about $31,300 and up.

That car would have gained 172 percent and be worth $85,000 today, according to Hagerty.com.

But remember, when you see six-figure selling prices on some cars, many investors could easily have spent six figures properly refurbishing some cars.

For most on Dream Cruise weekend, though, going down this road is far more about revvedup feelings than high finance.

“They’re not going to make anymore 1966 E-Types,” Richards said. “In fact, I wish I hadn’t sold it.”

Massage Envy Spa and the Arthritis Foundation will hold the fourth annual Healing Hands for Arthritis event on Sept. 17.

In addition to donating part of the proceeds from that day’s services to the Arthritis Foundation, the Northgate, Shoreline, Everett, and Bellingham Massage Envy locations will offer those currently living

with arthritis a free one-hour massage session.

Safe Harbor Free Clinic has publicly thanked the people and organizations that made the opening of their new Stanwood facility possible.

It’s officially iPhone season again now that Apple Inc. has set the date for its annual September launch event.

In typical fashion, the company’s media invite Thursday was brief and shrouded in a bit of mystery. “9.9.2014. Wish we could say more,” the email invite teased.

The launch event will be held at 10 a.m. at the Flint Center for the Performing Arts in Cupertino, California, where the company is headquartered. It’s a departure from Apple’s recent product debuts, which have been held on its own campus or at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco.

Every year Apple hints that it has groundbreaking products on the way, but this time around, the anticipation is heightened. In the last couple of years, tech rivals have vastly improved their smartphones and other mobile devices, at times churning out products that have bested Apple’s when it comes to performance and functionality — and in some cases, such as wearables, beating them to the market altogether.

Already, tech watchers have pointed to Apple’s decision to use the Flint Center — where Steve Jobs debuted the original Mac three decades ago — as a sign that Apple is planning to announce something major.

They’ve dissected the comments of Apple Senior Vice President Eddy Cue, who said in May that Apple was getting ready to launch “the best product pipeline that I’ve seen in my 25 years at Apple. I believe the products we’ve got coming are great.”

So what can Apple fans expect?

Two new iPhones seem like a sure thing, both of which are widely rumored to boast larger screens: one 4.7-inch version, one 5.5-inch version. They will most likely come with a slate of improved features. James Ragan, senior equity analyst at Crowell, Weedon & Co., said he hoped to see better battery life, a more powerful processor, expanded fingerprint technology, possible near-field communication capabilities and a better camera.

There are also strong indications that Apple will debut a wearable device, possibly a smartwatch called the iWatch.

IN OUR VIEW | Passenger brawls over reclining seats

Flying too close for comfort Ever wonder if you’re an involuntary subject in a sociological experiment?

Ask yourself that question the next time you’re on an airliner and the internal debate begins: “Should I recline? I paid for this seat; don’t I have the right? But can I recline without angering the person behind me? How far can I recline without sparking an incident that gets the plane turned around?”

This silent debate continues, until the passenger in front of you reclines his seat and all concern for consequence and fellow passengers goes in the air-sickness bag as the seatbacks fall like a line of dominos.

A United Airlines flight was diverted last week between

Newark, New Jersey, and Denver, when a female passenger threw water on a male passenger who had refused to remove a device called The Knee Defender, which prevented the woman from reclining her seat. Both were left off in Chicago to continue their journeys, presumably on separate planes. Another scuffle between passengers over the recline button occurred on a flight between Miami and Paris that had to be diverted to Boston.

This is where the airlines’ continued push to maximize profits has brought us as travelers. As airlines add more seats to planes, legroom decreases and the likelihood of conflict among passengers increases. Looking

for affordable travel, airline passengers have grown accustomed to accepting or declining the addition of fee upon fee above the basic cost of an economy seat and now must cope with an ever-shrinking allocation of personal space. The airlines even have a name for it: “densification.” But our ire as passengers has been misdirected at fellow passengers instead of the airline officials.

The airlines have been less than sympathetic. Without shame, Spirit CEO Ben Baldanza said, last year: “If you want more legroom, go pay for it at another airline.”

Baldanza’s “Let them buy cake” attitude aside, he’s correct: The flying public is free to fly on any other airline

— and probably should — but airlines as a rule now appear to consider the basic comfort of reclining your seat a few inches in coach class to be something you must now negotiate with the passenger behind you.

Absent an airline that comes to its senses and realizes it can treat the majority of its passengers as something more than cargo and still turn a profit, we will continue to see in-flight scuffles among passengers.

And the airlines, to keep the peace and head off costly diverted flights, will simply lock all economy seats in their upright positions. That is, unless you’d like to pay an additional fee for the freedom to recline?

The police were meticulous.

A man lost his wife last night.

He refused to leave as she was passing. ... It was a tearful moment, Leana said, as others pried his fingers from her hand so he could get emergency help for himself. If this were my family, my insurance company, our county’s road crew that laid gravel there the same day, I think nothing but a fine-tooth comb was prudent and would suffice — no matter the duration.

We have a new-found

respect for those who follow up after a fatality accident.

My need to sleep paled in comparison to the long hours our finest put in on this crisis from 8:30 p.m. until 3 a.m.

What a tragedy — life forever changed. It was an honor to stand by and pray for the parties involved. We are so very sorry for this man’s loss, his family, and those who will be changed form this time forward.

Twice we observed vehicles smack head into the big huge ACCIDENT AHEAD warning signs spanning 8 feet across the roadway; how does one slam into something so big? If alcohol was

One lady said she was asleep at the wheel (going 45 mph).

Another was observed full speed — smack!

In a span of just five hours we witnessed impaired driving by three individuals as people headed to their destinations. A simple message: People don’t drink, then drive. An open road may take you swiftly to an open heaven. Is that what you had in mind when you sat behind the wheel?

GUEST COMMENTARY | MENTAL ILLNESS

Humble thanks, prayers for our youth

By Carolyn Hetherwick Goza

A

s difficult as it was to read my “story” (“An advocate for parents whose children struggle with mental illness,” Aug. 24 when I wanted the focus on my “kiddos” and their parents, there are not words to express my deepest thanks to Diana Hefley and The Herald for bringing out the serious stigma and lack of services in our county, state and nation, for the children/youth/adolescents living with mental illness.

Yet, from all the supporting praises I have received, I realized that this front page “splash” may be just what our community and state needs to understand the tragic condition of our mental health system by seemingly putting our next generation at the bottom of all other priorities.

Indeed, I realize we also have serious issues with our veterans, our adult aged and physicality challenged, and our homeless, and some resources are available, but in just five days since the article was published, I’ve had one grandparent survive a physical rage by their adopted 16-year-old grandson punching holes in every wall and door in the house until a neighbor called 911 and, yep, nothing done to help de-escalate the youth’s situation, no counseling on anger management in any foreseeable future, and

no counseling for the grandparents of how to handle these frightening episodes without walking on eggshells waiting for the next shoe to drop.

Another 14-year-old developmentally delayed child has a behavior contract where mom must have 24/7 “line of sight” of her at all times, holding mom’s thumb all night with her security blanket to sleep.

Great life for a mom who is 68 and has health issues. And a Children’s Administration counselor in the team meeting at Compass asked me, “Well, are you going to care for her 24/7?” Please pray someone hears our pleas before she is seriously hurt or mom’s weakening health declines.

Very importantly though, I need to make everyone aware if it were not for the blessing of my husband helping not only with total support of me and this unending pain in our community, but also being on the Board of Directors of the Snohomish County National Alliance of Mental Illness, co-teaching and co-facilitating all our programs for these hurting parents and youth, and also physically hauling all supplies in and out of the church for every meeting, we would not be able to offer these classes and parent support groups. I know my late husband and precious grandson are so pleased that this is where their devastating deaths have led me and that now Michael is caring for me and helping fight this fight.

Lastly, one of my parents texted me in church that morning regarding the irony of the “boarding” problem of not enough beds for adults being included in the same edition of the paper.

You see, “my” youth/adolescents are not “boarded.” No, they are sent back home from the ER, often continuing to attack the parent all the way home, several youths even trying to jump out of the car going at freeway speeds. The parents are left to cope/exist at home with seemingly few resources until the next crisis. I cry as I hear these stories almost every day, realizing that if the children, youth, adolescents received help while they were young as mine did in other states, just maybe we would not have the mass tragedies or parents having to bury their children and the dreams they had for them after they too have committed suicide.

As our NAMI basics book explains, it is a catastrophic loss with which the parents must learn to accept. Please legislators, all this can change! All this must change! It hurts oh, too much!

The ‘spiral of silence’

W

ith folks yapping all day on social media — Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus and the rest — how can there be such a thing as a “spiral of silence” online?

Easy. Just make the experience of online political debate so disjointed, impersonal and unpleasant that people shut themselves up. Or they hide out in groupings where everyone says much the same thing. In that case, what they’re doing is cheerleading, not debating.

The “spiral of silence” is a theory that people hesitate to say things they believe others in their group won’t agree with. It predates the Internet age.

Let me add that the “spiral of silence” disproportionately affects the shy, the thoughtful and the female.

Social media were supposed to free these cooped-up opinions by offering new venues for speaking one’s piece. But this high-minded promise of a vast online town hall for pensive argument has fallen flat, accordFROMA HARROP ing to a new report by Pew Research Center and Rutgers University.

If anything, people seem less willing to engage in real back-and-forth about public affairs on websites than they are in old-fashioned personal settings, the researchers found.

We’re talking about politics here, not hiking trips, kitchen renovations and dog adoptions. And the politics we’re talking about is not a rally for Sen. Foghorn — the sort of thing that works well online — but a real hashing out of political differences.

To find out how the public ranks social media as a place for political debate, the researchers asked questions about Edward Snowden’s leaks of the National Security Agency’s operations. They used this issue because polls found the public fairly divided on the subject.

Only 16 percent of respondents who use Facebook said they’d discuss it there. And only 14 percent of those on Twitter said they’d talk about it on Twitter.

But 40 percent said they’d be willing to debate the matter at a family dinner table and 32 percent at a restaurant with friends.

Why aren’t we doing more political interchange online? For starters, the Web fragments us into bands of the like-minded.

People with minority views can huddle with others holding the same views, making them feel safer, part of a majority.

Further, online interaction is notoriously devoid of restraints on anti-social behavior — doubly so when creeps hide behind fake identities or go anonymous.

Not everyone can laugh at “You are an idiot.” And for the vulnerable, squads of lowlife trolls can multiply the hurt.

Here’s another possible reason for social media’s poor showing as a stage for political debate. How can anyone engage in a serious discussion on Facebook with videos of goats nuzzling monkeys cluttering the feeds, alongside pix of weddings and kayaks?

As for Twitter, how can anything more complicated than the temperature in Chicago be discussed in 140 characters or fewer? What passes on Twitter for political debate is often a battle of links. People offer a link to a longer article or post and then add only a handful of their own words, such as “I agree” or “This guy is right” or “You’re wrong, read this.”

According to the Pew-Rutgers report, people weren’t even using social media for basic information about the SnowdenNSA conflict. Almost 60 percent said that television/radio was one of their sources.

Some 34 percent said they used online sources other than social media — mainly the sites of mainstream news organizations, I bet. Only 15 percent sought knowledge on the issue through Facebook, and a mere 3 percent used Twitter.

It all sounds paradoxical, but here we have it: Noise only increases the silence on things that matter to our society.

Digital: Immense workload From Page A1

recover threatening text messages to hold abusers accountable. They can map a person’s location at a given time by researching cellphone signals captured by cell towers.

The workload has increased as technology becomes more accessible.

Most businesses in the city, big or small, use security cameras. People install them at their homes.

Some of the systems are outdated and poor quality, which can be an extra challenge. Others are newer and provide crystal clear images.

The increase in surveillance systems is dwarfed in comparison to the proliferation of cellphones.

“Phones have become a very big part of many police investigations,” Paxton said.

In 2011, detectives received 60 requests to examine cellphones for potential evidence. Last year, that number jumped to 168.

The number of cellphones per case also has increased, said Traci Youmans, the unit’s digital imaging analyst. It is common for detectives to obtain search warrants to probe multiple phones connected to suspects or victims.

In one recent case, a man used his cellphone to record himself sexually assaulting his children.

The detectives were able to recover the deleted images as well as the metadata documenting when the pictures were taken. The images corroborated the

Youmans can gather evidence from a cellphone while it is sealed inside a special box inside the department’s digital forensics lab.

Every type of connection and cord waits in case it’s needed.

MARK MULLIGAN / THE HERALD

Traci Youmans, a civilian employee with the Everett Police Department, photographs a cellphone taken as evidence inside the department’s digital forensics lab in Everett on Wednesday morning. The department is tasked with uncovering evidence spanning devices from cell phones to video surveillance systems.

statements of the young victims.

In child sex abuse cases, there is rarely any forensic or medical evidence. It generally comes down to the word of children, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Matt Baldock said. Their testimony, their memories, often are attacked on the witness stand.

“How can you explain

away a video on a phone?”

Baldock said.

The man was investigated in the past for sexually assaulting his children. Prosecutors were forced to drop charges when it was clear that his daughters wouldn’t hold up under the pressures of testifying. This time, the girls were able to tell their side of the story and prosecutors were able to show

jurors the images. The man was sentenced to more than 40 years in prison.

“Usually it’s not the one thing we find. It’s pulling the whole picture together,” Youmans said.

She and the detectives also must be able to present the information to other detectives, prosecutors and jurors in a way that is easy to track and understand.

“All these gadgets are

useless unless we have people who are trained to use them and then to testify,” Sgt. James Collier said.

Right now the unit is made up of Youmans and two detectives. Longtime detective Jeff Shattuck recently retired, after spending years in the unit and launching the lab.

A large part of the challenge is keeping up with the ever-changing technology: tablet computers replacing desktop versions and cloud-based file-sharing instead of hard drives.

always two steps behind the technology,” Collier said.

There’s hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in equipment and training. It’s an ongoing fight to keep up. The investigators belong to associations and keep up with trade journals. They rely on training to try to keep up with latest.

“It’s law enforcement in the 21st and 22nd century.

How to prepare for health screenings

R

egardless of your age, health and gender, you need periodic health screenings to help detect diseases early, even before symptoms or signs appear.

They are well worth the inconvenience. Catching an illness early may mean it is easier to treat. And sometimes the tests are lifesaving.

You and your physician can decide what tests you need based on your health risks.

Get your questions answered prior to screening and then carefully follow your physician’s directions.

Here are some general tips on how to prepare for common screening tests.

Blood pressure. Relax for five minutes before the reading with your feet flat on the ground and your arms supported by armrests.

Blood glucose. Fast for 12 hours (plain water is OK) before the blood draw.

Blood lipid panel. Before testing for cholesterol and triglycerides, don’t eat or drink anything (except water) for 12 hours. Ask your physician whether you should take your medications.

Colorectal exam. Ask your physician if you need to stop medications or dietary supplements before the exam.

For women: Pap smear. Schedule your appointment about one or two weeks after you expect your period. If your period starts, call your physician to reschedule. Avoid intercourse, douching, tampons and birth control foams or jellies for two days before testing.

Mammogram. Get screened when your breasts are the least tender, usually the week following your period. Avoid wearing deodorants, powders, perfumes and lotions on test day.

What is second impact syndrome?

A blow to the head can temporarily change the way your brain works. This is called a concussion. Symptoms of the condition include headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, blurred vision, irritability, memory problems or confusion. Concussions need time and rest to heal.

But if another blow to the head occurs before the initial concussion has healed, a condition called second impact syndrome can result. The syndrome consists of rapid swelling of the brain inside the skull. The condition is very serious and potentially fatal.

Second impact syndrome can occur at any age, though young people less than 25 are especially vulnerable.

Have a prompt evaluation if you’ve had a head injury. To reduce the chance of second impact syndrome, don’t return to sports or other activities without your provider’s OK. Send comments to readers@ drsmoots.com or go to www. drsmoots.com. ©2014 Elizabeth S. Smoots, MD, LLC; drsmoots.com

QUINN RUSSELL BROWN / THE HERALD

Seated between his son, Asher, and his dialysis machine, Michael Goldberg plays his guitar. Goldberg recorded a song, “High,” about dealing with the emotional highs and lows of life.

Waiting for a kidney, he breaks out in song

By Quinn Russell Brown Herald Writer

Michael Goldberg isn’t letting his tubes hold him back.

The 55-year-old dialysis patient recorded a song while hooked up to an NxStage System One, a 75-pound machine that fulfills the job of a kidney by cleaning his blood.

Unlike most patients battling kidney failure, Goldberg does dialysis in his own bedroom thanks to training from Northwest Kidney Centers.

A professor at the University of Washington’s Bothell campus, he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at age 15. He had a kidney transplant in 1993, which began to give out in 2011. He’s been on home dialysis for the past two years.

“The thing we tell our patients waiting for a transplant is, ‘Tell your story,’” said Joyce F. Jackson, president and CEO of Northwest Kidney Centers. “It’s surprising where people have found donors.”

Back when he had more free time, Goldberg played in a band of UW Bothell faculty and staff called UDubB Jammin.’ He hopes that recording a song will spread the word about his situation as well as teach people about home dialysis.

“You’re more active. You’re at home. You’re with your kids.

You’re healthier,” he said.

The song, “High,” is about a guy who’s doing so well — who’s so “high” on life — that he’s just waiting for the inevitable moment when he’s brought

back down.

“What you learn when you face repeated challenges is that you really have to keep balance,” Goldberg said. “People always say, ‘Lift yourself up.’ The key thing for me is, just don’t get too high. Don’t get too confident. Be ready.”

He wrote the song six years ago when things were pretty stable.

“A year later I got this weird combination of a lung and muscle thing that no one ever figured out,” he said. “Just goes to show ya.”

Goldberg recruited his older son Asher de Forest, 15, to whistle along in the background, performing the equivalent of a guitar solo midway through.

“You know I’m high, please let me down,” goes the chorus. “I’m high, please get me down.”

The second verse: “The sun is out and the sky is blue. I can’t help thinking everything is cool.

It’s the perfect day for the perfect fool, who thinks he’s perfectly invincible.”

Goldberg expected he would have a transplant by now; the average time on the organ waitlist in the Northwest is two to three years. But in February, doctors discovered he had gone from having a low antibody count to a high one, which means his body is likely to reject most kidneys.

“The body is always trying to get rid of foreign things, and that’s what generates the antibodies,” he said.

Any new kidney will have to trick the body into fitting in perfectly: a compatible blood type,

matching tissue and agreeable antibodies. As a result, Goldberg has to wait longer for the right kidney.

Organs from the waitlist come from deceased donors and typically don’t last as long as organs donated from living people. Goldberg hopes to locate a living donor willing to help out, even if their kidney won’t line up with his.

“I’m very unlikely to find a donor who will match me, but you can be part of a chain, so that’s what I’m looking for,” he said.

A “chain” is a kidney-swapping arrangement involving multiple patients, each with a willing but incompatible donor. In a threeway chain, for example, Patient A gets the kidney of Patient B’s donor, patient B gets the kidney of patient C’s donor, and Patient C gets the kidney of Patient A’s donor.

It can be as complicated as a dozen patients or as simple as a paired exchange. Donors can live anywhere in the U.S. The details are sorted out by exchange networks at hospitals such as Swedish Medical Center, where Goldberg has begun talking to a transplant rep.

“It’s highly coordinated and complex, but certainly possible,” Jackson said. “We’ve definitely seen in the last three years more reports of paired exchanges and chains. It is something out there.”

“The more common story on living donation is a son to a father, a father to a son, or a friend to a friend,” Jackson said.

Watch ‘High’ Watch a video of Michael Goldberg and his son, Asher, performing Goldberg’s song, “High,” at bit.ly/kidneysong.

Last year, only 84 of the 1,550 patients at Northwest Kidney Centers received a kidney transplant.

“And our rate of transplantation is about 80 percent higher than the national average,” Jackson said.

One reason the figure might seem low is because most people on dialysis don’t actually want a kidney. Only 28 percent of patients at Northwest Kidney Centers are waiting for a new organ. The national average is 24 percent.

“I know of patients who feel very comfortable on dialysis as the therapy of choice,” Jackson said. “I know one patient who has been on dialysis for 32 years and he doesn’t want to get a transplant.”

The reasons are varied. Some might not want the hassle of surgery. Obese patients might have to lose weight before they can qualify. Others might not want the responsibility of taking 10 to 20 pills every day for the rest of their lives.

“Transplant is not a cure, it’s another therapy,” Jackson said.

“It has risks and benefits.”

For Goldberg, who has an active lifestyle, the benefits of a new kidney far outweigh the risks and responsibilities. He’s teaching a history class this fall. He wants to cook for his family. He wants to travel without having to lug the machine along or schedule stops at dialysis centers along the way.

And he wants to get the band back together again.

Eating protein helps aging adults stay strong

I laughed. But boy, did I realize her meaning as I chased my two-year old granddaughter around recently.

Growing older isn’t for sissies.

Some research suggests that the current recommendation for protein intake (0.8 grams per kilogram of body weight for healthy adults) may not be quite enough to prevent loss of muscle mass as we age. When protein is

not sufficient, the body begins to break down its own tissue to supply for vital needs. The result is a loss of muscle tone and strength, say nutrition experts.

Other studies have found that aging bodies are better able to retain muscle strength when we eat approximately 20 to 30 grams of protein at each meal.

Exercise (especially resistance or strength training) is the other side of the equation to prevent frailty as age, say Tufts researchers. Keep pumping those muscles 30 minutes to an hour a day, they suggest.

DAILY CROSSWORD

Friend’s death triggers tears, uncertainty Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: A childhood friend of mine passed away suddenly this past fall.

She was in her 30s, married, with a small child. I had not been close to her in many years, but enjoyed crossing paths with her on occasion where we always promised to get together soon. I went to the funeral services, hugged her husband, cried quite a bit. I still tear up just thinking about the tragedy of it all. She was a wonderful person.

My friend’s widower recently invited my husband and me over for dinner, and we’re thrilled to accept. But just thinking about it also makes me cry! I could easily see us all ending up having a good cry, but I don’t want to put my own emotions on display if there’s any chance I’ll drag the husband into sadness with me. It feels terribly selfish! And I don’t know the husband well enough to know if it would make things better or worse for him.

I guess I’m wondering how I can be a good friend to the husband. I just want to do right by him.

— After the Death of a Friend I’m so sorry about your friend. If it helps: Even many years after the death of one of my friends, I can’t predict when I’ll hold together and

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT when I’ll cry.

By email or voice mail (however you’ve communicated with him about this dinner), if you feel at all comfortable doing so, explain that you’re still weepy about Friend’s loss, and if he’s not ready for that you’ll understand. If he assures you it’s OK, then just say you’re grateful for the invitation and apologize in advance for any mid-dinner blubbering.

If it helps Part 2: A common theme over the years has been that people who are grieving can’t be “reminded” of grief by your tears — it’s there all the time. Showing you care is often a comfort, even if you’re both a weepy mess.

Hi, Carolyn: I was recently contacted by a prospective wedding guest (“prospective” because we haven’t even finalized the guest list yet), who

disclosed that her husband, whom I have never met, is a recovering alcoholic who is triggered by situations where alcohol is present. She requests (in fact, she “begs” us, to use her words) that we not serve alcohol at our wedding so that her husband can be there without discomfort.

At the risk of sounding like a couple of lushes, we did not envision a dry wedding and we’re not prepared to make such a sacrifice for a peripheral guest (were this a parent or sibling, we’d do it gladly).

Any suggestions about how best to word my reply?

— Inviting an Alcoholic That was so presumptuous of her to ask, I’m sorry.

Just say you’re sorry about her circumstances but you do plan to serve alcohol, and will completely understand if they choose not to come.

Re: Alcoholic Guest: If they live in the area, you can also make sure to say, “Well, there won’t be any alcohol at the church, and while we understand you may need to skip the reception, we’d love for you to attend the most important part, the ceremony.”

The Daily Herald

Mother tongue makes conversation difficult Dear Abby: My son married an educated professional woman from another country. When their twins were born, my daughter-in-law immersed them in her native language so it would become their mother tongue.

Although I understand and respect the benefits of being bilingual, this caused a lot of communication gaps and frustration between us and the grandkids during their early years.

They attend a bilingual elementary school now, and their English is superb and communication between us is great. The problem is, when we are together, my daughter-inlaw speaks to her children exclusively in her native language. My son understands the conversation, but my husband and I do not know what is being said. We think this is rude and inconsiderate.

Are we being overly sensitive, or is this common practice in families with multiple languages?

Our relationship with our daughter-in-law is polite and cordial, but not close or intimate. Any advice? — Left Out In Florida Dear Left Out: This is not unusual in multilingual families, and I agree that it is inconsiderate. Have you spoken to your son and daughter-in-law about how this makes you feel?

If you haven’t, you should, because she may not be deliberately trying to make you feel excluded.

When you raise the subject, choose your words and tone carefully.

since 2005. While earlier we could not legally marry, in 2006 we had a commitment ceremony bringing together close friends and family to acknowledge and celebrate our relationship.

In 2013, Owen and I were finally able to legally marry in California.

My dilemma comes from people who don’t know what to call us. People often refer to my spouse as my “friend” or “partner.” At times I say nothing, but more often than not, I find myself saying, “Oh, you mean my HUSBAND.” Some of them thank me for the clarification; others just look at me with a blank stare.

Owen never corrects them because he feels it isn’t his place. I feel it’s my responsibility to do so, first so as to not play down the significance of our relationship, but also to educate these people. Do you think this is inappropriate? — Married In California Dear Married: Not at all.

The people who refer to you and Owen as “partners” and “friends” are using terminology that is evolving because marriage among same-sex couples is still relatively new. As it becomes more commonplace, that will change. In the meantime, it’s completely appropriate for you and Owen to speak up. www.DearAbby.com; P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

won the setting trick. South got out for down one when the club finesse won later.

Even if South guesses right in diamonds, he will lose five tricks unless the club finesse wins. So South must assume that West has the king. But East needs one high card for his response of 1NT. South should give himself a chance by putting up the king of diamonds at Trick Four, playing East for the ace.

He may go down two (and at matchpoint duplicate, his decision would be harder), but he can never make three spades by playing the jack.

ANSWER: Until the advent of “transfer” responses, this hand had to bid two clubs (Stayman) or three spades.

Transfers provide more flexibility. Respond two hearts, asking partner to bid two spades, and bid 3NT next.

You show the values for game, five spades and balanced pattern. He can choose a game.

Discuss transfers before you use them.

Paul McCartney, George Harrison or Ringo Starr to the late night Monopoly games (where Lennon was known to cheat), Davis recounts his ticket to ride along with the band on that cross-country trek in his new book “The Beatles and Me On Tour” (Cockney Kid Publishing, $15.99).

Davis never planned to write a book on the experience.

“When you are a reporter on a daily paper, you do a story and then you forget about it. That’s what happened for years and years,” Davis says. “I didn’t think it was such a big deal, but I

Ivor Davis knows exactly where he was 50 years ago today: hanging out with The Beatles.

As the West Coast bureau chief for the London Daily Express, Davis was assigned to cover the first U.S. tour by the Fab Four that started with a performance at the Cow Palace in San Francisco on Aug. 19, 1964 and ended Sept. 20, 1964 at the Paramount Theater in New York.

would go to a dinner party and people would find out that I toured with The Beatles and they wanted to talk about it.”

In the book, he talks about the 34 days where he had unrestricted access to the lads from Liverpool.

He was there when The Beatles couldn’t leave their hotel rooms because of the rabid fans outside. Davis was there when Bob Dylan introduced the band to pot.

Davis also spent a lot of time ghostwriting for Harrison, who gave a firstperson account of what was happening on tour for a newspaper column in the Express. Things started

poorly because Davis had a noon deadline and Harrison often didn’t get out of bed until 3 p.m.

“I made up the column the first week, and I wrote a lot of rubbish. Harrison finally told me that the column was (expletive deleted). I told him that if he woke up earlier and talked to me the column would get better. He did and the column did get better,” Davis says.

The craziness started the moment The Beatles arrived in America.

Davis recalls going to the Hilton Hotel and fighting his way through the mobs of fans who stayed

Today’s highlight: On Sept. 2, 1945, Japan formally surrendered in ceremonies aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay, ending World War II. On this date: In 1666, the Great Fire of London broke out.

In 1901, Vice President Theodore Roosevelt offered the advice, “Speak softly and carry a big stick” in a speech at the Minnesota State Fair.

In 1935, a Labor Day hurricane slammed into the Florida Keys, claiming more than 400 lives.

50 years ago (1964) Two retirements were noted. Dr. Ross Earlywine, Everett dentist for 50 years, had retired. He and wife were moving to Laguna Beach, California. E.W. “Al” Ramstad was leaving his position as chief personal property appraiser in the county assessor’s office.

He was served his farewell cake by Lois Miller.

she was on her way to teach English in an elementary school in Hargesa, Somalia. She was leaving next week to join 57 Peace Corps volunteers who would work two years in the African country.

25 years ago (1989) Herald writer Diane Wright wrote about the fifth annual Kla-How-Ya Days Celebration and Pow-Wow, a festival competition in traditional drumming, dancing and dress at the Tulalip Indian

outside all night.

“I was 24 at the time and none of us had a sense of history about what The Beatles would become.

None of them ever thought we would still be talking about them after 50 years.”

After the tour, Davis returned to covering news and entertainment.

Along with interviewing Cary Grant, Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton, Tom Cruise and Muhammad Ali, Davis was in the Ambassador Hotel the night Robert Kennedy was assassinated.

The Evergreen State Fair had plenty of distractions, but all ears turned toward the Boeing Chautauqua stage when Sanda Daiko was there.

The Board of Governors of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said Thursday that it would present Harry Belafonte with the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award and give honorary Oscars to Jean-Claude Carriere, Hayao Miyazaki and Maureen O’Hara.

Once part of the annual Oscars telecast, the Governors Awards are now a separate event and is a popular stop on the awards season campaign trail.

Carriere, a screenwriter, won an Oscar for the

Miyazaki is an artist, writer, director, producer and co-founder of the acclaimed Japanese animation house Studio Ghibli. He is a three-time Oscar nominee.

O’Hara, a native of Dublin, Ireland, came to Hollywood in 1939 to star in “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” opposite Charles Laughton and starred in a range of films.

The four awards are to be handed out at the academy’s Governors Awards dinner Nov. 8.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Focus on learning, improving your friendships and association with others and exploring new interests that will take your mind off trivial setbacks. Make home improvements and stabilize your position by reorganizing your personal documents. Choose caution over impulse and consider self-deception a possibility regarding personal situations you face. Your numbers are 9, 15, 22, 30, 32, 39, 41.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Enjoy life and all it has to offer. Indulge in events, activities and doing things that interest you, and you will gain knowledge and improve your prospects. ����� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Financial opportunities will come from an unusual source. Plan carefully or whatever you gain will slip through your fingers. Stringent policy when it comes to expenditures should be put in place before you spend inappropriately. ��� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Focus on personal gains and improvements, not on those putting demands on you. You aren’t likely to get valid information and should make a point of doing your own research. ��� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t be alarmed by changes taking place. A strong, stable, responsible approach to work and personal duties will put you in a good position that will bring promising results. ��� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Not everyone will be entertained by your bravado, but it will grab the attention of someone who likes your style and knows how to put your talents to good use. �����

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t let emotional issues stop you from following through with your plans. Make a couple of changes to your living quarters to accommodate something you want to pursue. �� LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Speak up and ask questions if you are uncertain. Attend an activity designed to improve your community.

Personal connections made at functions will turn out to be opportune. ���� SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Observe how others react to what you say. What you learn will help you avoid making a mistake.

Stick to the truth and focus on getting ahead.

Positive changes at home will raise your standard of living and lead to a better relationship with someone special. ��� CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Ulterior motives are apparent and taking precautions to keep your intentions a secret will be in your best interest. Be ready to counter an unexpected change someone makes at the last minute. ��� AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Say what’s on your mind and get what you want in writing.

A professional change looks inviting. Your negotiating skills will help you win a position that can lead to greater income. ���� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Avoid emotional confrontations. Concentrate on contracts, settlements and other legal or financial matters that can influence your standard of living, your reputation or your position. Honesty will be a factor regarding an old friend. �� Universal Uclick

Vikings expecting big things from a healthy Tevin Gray Coaches poll

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

The most well-known of the Lake Stevens Vikings is no doubt quarterback Jacob Eason. That shouldn’t come as a surprise. The highly regarded junior already has committed to play for the University of Georgia.

While Eason might attract most of the attention, the Vikings have a long list of receivers who make his job easier. Near the top of that list is senior Tevin Gray, who emerged as Eason’s favorite target a year ago, finishing the season with 61 catches for 838 yards and 11 touchdowns.

But Gray’s 2013 season didn’t start nearly as well as it finished.

He entered last year’s training camp with a strained hamstring that kept him out of most of the team’s summer activities. Having been unable to run most of the summer, he needed extra time to round himself into game shape.

“He came into the fall out of shape, basically,” Lake Stevens coach Tom Tri said. “It wasn’t his fault, he just couldn’t run. He wasn’t in football shape. It took him three or four weeks.”

Gray’s statistics reflected his conditioning — or lack thereof. In the first four weeks of the season,

TUESDAY, 09.02.2014

Over the final four weeks of the season, Gray proved his injury was buried in the past by catching 40 passes for 507 yards and four touchdowns. He caught 12 passes three times in the final four games, and his best game of the season came in a 53-49 win over Edmonds-Woodway in the Wesco 4A championship game.

Gray caught 12 passes for 203 yards and four touchdowns.

Tri said he expects the connection between Eason and Gray to be even more potent this season.

“We’re going to find different ways to get him the ball, whether it’s a screen, a run, a vertical pass or a short pass,” Tri said. “We’re going to mix it all over the place.”

Gray, who ran a 4.57-second 40-yard dash on the first day of

practice, said he hopes to top 1,000 receiving yards this season, but even more important, wants to contribute to a deep run in the playoffs.

The Vikings open the season with two tough non-league opponents that should gauge how good they are. In Week 1 they host Meadowdale, and in Week 2 they host Marysville Pilchuck.

“I think our biggest game this year that I can think of is our nonleague game against Marysville (Pilchuck),” Gray said. “Besides that, they shouldn’t be easy games. We’re going to need to work and play our best, but we’re looking to win Wesco.”

Tri expects an even better season out of Gray, but said the Vikings have several receivers on the roster he expects to contribute in a big way. Tri said having four or five receivers with 30-plus catches is not out of the question.

With the Vikings’ depth at receiver and Eason throwing them the ball, it could be a long season for opposing defensive backs.

“Hopefully it’s going to be really good and we’re going to connect a lot,” Gray said of his chemistry with Eason. “But we have four really good receivers and he’s going to try to spread out the ball a lot and hopefully it works out.”

IAN TERRY / THE HERALD

Lake Stevens wide receiver Tevin Gray

he caught a total of eight passes for 164 yards and one touchdown.

Many teams rely on summer camps and practices for their players not only to get in shape, but to build rapport among teammates. Perhaps nowhere is that relationship more important than between a receiver and a quarterback. With Gray injured, the connection between he and Eason didn’t develop until well into the regular season.

“It took us some time to build that momentum and gain

chemistry,” Tri said. “You could see they were good, but then they had the chemistry and that’s when it really started to blossom.”

In Week 5, against Mount Vernon, Gray caught six passes for 73 yards. The next week he caught seven passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns against Arlington.

“By Week 5 or Week 6 his hamstring started to heal up and he started to gain some confidence and got into football shape and then all of the sudden you started seeing his numbers (go up),” Tri said.

Word from the coach: “We have more depth this year and more bodies than we’ve had in a long time, but a lot of our guys are green. We are going to have a lot of first-time starters, so as talented as they are, the learning curve will be pretty steep. If we can weather the storm through the first couple of weeks and get these guys some experience, I really like what we have.”

Word from the coach: “This is a group of exceptional young men who have bonded together over the course of the offseason through participating in expansive conditioning and weight training programs.

Our football team is fortunate to have such great senior leadership, as well as a group of tremendous underclassmen who have followed the lead of our seniors. ”

Word from the coach: “We’ve got seven returners on offense and seven returners on defense. I like the fact that we’ve got some experience coming back. It’s a great group of kids that have worked very hard in the offseason to try to put themselves in a position to be successful for this season. ... I’m very excited about the group of guys that we have.”

Word from the coach: “We have several key starters returning, but it always comes down to the offensive line and how they jell together.

We have a deep competition right now at offensive line and that will just make us better in the long run.

Leadership through the spring and summer has been outstanding. ...

We are excited to see what this season has in store.”

Word from the coach: “Last year, I got here in July and had to throw everything together pretty quickly.

This year, our seniors have really stepped up and been leaders off the field. ... We had great camps this summer, and we’re dependent on an experienced offensive line and a running back with a lot of experience.

Hopefully, we’ll be able to mesh better as a team than we did last year. ”

SEATTLE — The suspension is over, and so is the speculation.

Cyler Miles is the Washington Huskies’ starting quarterback.

Head coach Chris Petersen said at his Monday press conference that Miles, a third-year sophomore and the most experienced quarterback on UW’s roster, will start the Huskies’ home opener on Saturday against Eastern Washington.

Miles sat out UW’s seasonopening victory at Hawaii, serving a one-game suspension for his involvement in

an offseason altercation that prompted an assault investigation. He wasn’t charged — former teammate Damore’ea Stringfellow was, and subsequently transferred — but Petersen suspended him for all of UW’s spring practices and decided he wouldn’t play in their first game, either.

And after third-year sophomore Jeff Lindquist struggled in his starting debut (10-for-26, 172 yards and a touchdown), the 6-foot-4, 225-pound Miles will get a chance, as expected, to prove himself UW’s most capable quarterback.

to complete only three passes in the second half in Saturday’s 17-16 escape. Petersen hopes to see better efficiency with Miles under center, though he admits he still doesn’t quite know what to expect. As a redshirt freshman in 2013, Miles started one game, appeared in eight, and completed 37 of 61 passes for 418 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions. He also rushed 23 times for 200 yards.

“We’ll find out. That’s why we’re going to put him in there,” Petersen said. “I don’t really know. I think he commands the See UW, Page C5

OAKLAND, Calif. — Labor Day tip, Mariners: Remember to breathe.

The first meaningful September for the Seattle Mariners in more than a decade started with a thud Monday afternoon when Chris Young failed to survive the first inning in a 6-1 loss to free-falling Oakland at the O.co Coliseum.

Previously free-falling Oakland, that is.

“They ran the (opening) kickoff back,” manager Lloyd McClendon said, “and the game was over. The first inning, it was over with. We battled. We hit some balls hard. But the game was over with.”

Adam Dunn’s two-run homer against Young started a five-run burst. The ball had just enough carry to clear the right-field wall and provide Dunn with a memorable first at-bat since joining the A’s.

“He’s just such a strong guy,” Young said, “and he hit it well enough. It wasn’t located as well as it needed to be, but it wasn’t a horrible pitch. I needed to limit it to that at that point, and I didn’t do it.”

The A’s scored three more runs before lefty Lucas Luetge, one of seven players the Mariners summoned Monday from Triple-A Tacoma, recorded the inning’s final out.

UKILTEO — For those of us who have struggled to get good at golf, who have experienced more agony than ecstasy from the game, and who would gladly hand over a month’s salary just to shoot under par one time, it is hard not to be in awe of Alvin

Kwak.

Kwak, who lives in Mukilteo, is 13 years old. He picked up a golf club for the first time when he was 8. Two years later he shot his first round in the 70s, posting at 78 at Everett’s Walter Hall Golf Course. Last year, at age 12, he went under 70 for the first time, carding a 68 from the blue tees at the Washington State Junior Golf Association championships

at Meadow Park Golf Course in Tacoma.

A year from entering high school, and almost three years from getting a drivers license, Kwak is already doing things in golf many of us only dream about.

And there is more. In late July, Kwak was in Pinehurst, N.C., for the 2014 U.S. Kids Golf Teen World Championships. Playing

MARINERS | Update

The News Tribune

OAKLAND, Calif. — The Mariners’ clubhouse got at lot more crowded Monday when seven players arrived from Triple-A Tacoma under rules that permit rosters to expand from 25 players to 40 players in September.

The new arrivals: First baseman/outfielder Corey Hart was activated from the disabled list. First baseman Justin Smoak, outfielder Stefen Romero, right-hander Taijuan Walker and lefty reliever Lucas Luetge were recalled from Tacoma.

The Mariners also selected the contracts of catcher Humberto Quintero and righty reliever Carson Smith from Tacoma.

Lefty James Paxton and

right-hander Erasmo Ramirez are expected to be return prior to Tuesday’s game because they must wait for the Rainiers’ season to end to circumvent the 10-day waiting period on recalls.

The Mariners cleared space for Quintero and Smith on their 40-man roster by placing first baseman/DH Jesus Montero on the suspended list and shifting utilityman Willie Bloomquist to the 60-day disabled list.

“I think all of them bring something to the table,” manager Lloyd McClendon said.

“Hopefully, they’ll get opportunities to win games.”

Staff additions The Mariners, once Paxton and Ramirez return, will be carrying 17 pitchers. With Paxton reclaiming

his spot in the rotation — he will start Tuesday night against the A’s — that means a 12-man bullpen.

McClendon said Walker and Ramirez will shift to bullpen roles but is basically challenging Walker to pitch his way into the rotation.

“Right now,” McClendon said, “(Walker) is probably going to be more of a long man. Hopefully, he’ll get to the point where he’s so dominating that he’s in the rotation.

Montero’s status The decision to place Montero on the suspended list is a consequence of what the organization is terming “a verbal altercation with a Mariners scout at a Northwest League game.”

The incident occurred Aug. 28 while Montero was on a rehab assignment at Short-A Everett for a game at Boise. The “altercation” involved scout Butch Baccala, who has been pulled from his road duties by the club.

Murray wins in straight sets

By Rachel Cohenap Associated Press

NEW YORK— Andy Murray pulled out the sort of tough win he had been missing this year, beating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga in three long sets in the fourth round of the U.S. Open.

The eighth-seeded Murray needed 2 hours, 35 minutes to defeat the ninth-seeded Frenchman 7-5, 7-5, 6-4 on a hot, humid Monday afternoon.

Tsonga had three break points to go up 3-0 in the final set, but Murray fought them off to swing the momentum.

Correction The Stanwood football team plays its games on a grass surface.

In the article titled “Grass stains are a thing of the past” that ran on page C6 of Monday’s edition, The Herald incorrectly reported Arlington was the last remaining Wesco team that played its games on a grass surface before getting a new artificial field this season. We regret the error.

JOSE SANCHEZ / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Mariners right fielder Endy Chavez leaps in vain to catch a Adam Dunn’s two-run home run in the bottom of the first inning of Oakland’s 6-1 victory Seattle on Monday.

M’s From Page C1

brought just-recalled Taijuan Walker into the game just a few hours after McClendon pretty much challenged Walker to begin living up to his hype as the organization’s top prospect.

Walker responded by holding the A’s to one run in six innings.

“Definitely I need to step up,” he said. “My (previous) three outings in the big leagues weren’t very good. But my last five down in Triple-A were very good, and I’ve been throwing the ball well.”

Other than that, though, not much went right.

Oakland starter Jason Hammel lugged a 5.77 ERA into the afternoon but carried a two-hit shutout into the sixth inning before Brad Miller led off with a homer.

Hammel (2-5) then retired the next nine in a row before giving the game to Eric O’Flaherty, who pitched the ninth.

The Mariners (73-63) have now lost five of their last seven. They also fell 11⁄2 games behind Detroit in the battle for the American

League’s final wild-card spot. The Tigers walloped Cleveland 12-1.

What happened at the O.co didn’t go well.

The Mariners provided Oakland’s run-starved attack with an early break when center fielder Austin Jackson misplayed Josh Reddick’s one-out drive in the first inning.

The result was a ball that got over Jackson’s head for a double.

“It was hit right at me,” he said.

“It was one of them where you’ve got to make up your mind right away on which way you’re going to turn.

“It didn’t get up in the sun. It was just a line drive, hit right at me, and I kind of froze for a quick second.”

That misplay enabled Dunn to bat with two outs, and he lofted 1-1 changeup to right, just deep enough to claw its way over the wall for a two-run homer.

The sellout crowd of 36,067 responded with a roar.

“That’s the best crowd I’ve ever played for,” said Dunn, a 14-year veteran whom Oakland acquired Sunday from the Chicago White Sox for minor-league pitch Nolan Sanburn.

“That’s the most excited, anxious — call it a little nervous — I’ve been in a long time.”

It quickly got worse.

Young walked Brandon Moss on four pitches, and Jed Lowrie, just activated from the disabled list, pulled a single to right. A walk to Stephen Vogt loaded the bases.

Geovany Soto lined a fullcount fastball into left for a two-run single and a 4-0 lead that finished Young, who threw 36 pitches in, by far, the shortest outing of the season by a Mariners starter.

The A’s kept coming. Eric Sogard greeted Luetge with an RBI single before Sam Fuld struck out.

Oakland’s five-run first inning came after it scored just four runs over the weekend in losing four games to the first-place Angels in Anaheim.

All five were charged to Young, who dropped to 12-7 and saw his ERA spike from 3.17 to 3.46.

Afterward, he refused to blame the nine-day “refresher” layoff for his ineffectiveness.

“I feel good,” Young insisted. “I wouldn’t take the ball if I didn’t.

Every pitcher goes through a period during the season when they don’t throw the ball as well (as usual). Mine is right now.

“I’m going to get through it, keep working, and I’m going to finish strong.”

Astros fire manager Porter, site need for ‘new direction’

By Kristie Riekenap Associated Press

HOUSTON — The Houston Astros fired manager Bo Porter on Monday, saying

the dismissal had less to do with the team’s 59-79 record than the need for “new direction” and a “united message throughout the entire organization.”

Porter was in his second season with the Astros and was succeeded by interim manager Tom Lawless.

Bench coach Dave Trembley also was let go.

PASCO — Pinch-runner Richard Prigatano scored the winning run when Everett catcher Adam Martin’s throw to third base sailed into left field to give the Tri-City Dust Devils a 4-3 walkoff victory in the AquaSox’ season finale.

It was the fifth error of the game for the AquaSox, who finish the 2014 campaign with a record of 28-48.

The Dust Devils tied the game at four in their half of the eighth inning following another miscue by the Everett defense.

Kody Kerski took the loss to fall to 4-3 on the season.

Four Phillies’ pitchers combine for no-hitter

By George Henry Associated Press

ATLANTA — On Labor Day, Cole Hamels and the Philadelphia bullpen spread the workload on a no-hitter.

Hamels and three Phillies relievers combined on the season’s fourth no-hitter, blanking the Atlanta Braves 7-0 Monday and giving a last-place team a rare reason to celebrate.

Relievers Jake Diekman, Ken Giles and Jonathan Papelbon each pitched a perfect inning to close out the 11th combined no-hitter in big league history. A smiling Hamels watched from the bench as they finished off what he started.

Vikings expecting big things from a healthy Tevin Gray Coaches poll

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

The most well-known of the Lake Stevens Vikings is no doubt quarterback Jacob Eason. That shouldn’t come as a surprise. The highly regarded junior already has committed to play for the University of Georgia.

While Eason might attract most of the attention, the Vikings have a long list of receivers who make his job easier. Near the top of that list is senior Tevin Gray, who emerged as Eason’s favorite target a year ago, finishing the season with 61 catches for 838 yards and 11 touchdowns.

But Gray’s 2013 season didn’t start nearly as well as it finished.

He entered last year’s training camp with a strained hamstring that kept him out of most of the team’s summer activities. Having been unable to run most of the summer, he needed extra time to round himself into game shape.

“He came into the fall out of shape, basically,” Lake Stevens coach Tom Tri said. “It wasn’t his fault, he just couldn’t run. He wasn’t in football shape. It took him three or four weeks.”

Gray’s statistics reflected his conditioning — or lack thereof. In the first four weeks of the season,

Over the final four weeks of the season, Gray proved his injury was buried in the past by catching 40 passes for 507 yards and four touchdowns. He caught 12 passes three times in the final four games, and his best game of the season came in a 53-49 win over Edmonds-Woodway in the Wesco 4A championship game.

Gray caught 12 passes for 203 yards and four touchdowns.

Tri said he expects the connection between Eason and Gray to be even more potent this season.

“We’re going to find different ways to get him the ball, whether it’s a screen, a run, a vertical pass or a short pass,” Tri said. “We’re going to mix it all over the place.”

Gray, who ran a 4.57-second 40-yard dash on the first day of

practice, said he hopes to top 1,000 receiving yards this season, but even more important, wants to contribute to a deep run in the playoffs.

The Vikings open the season with two tough non-league opponents that should gauge how good they are. In Week 1 they host Meadowdale, and in Week 2 they host Marysville Pilchuck.

“I think our biggest game this year that I can think of is our nonleague game against Marysville (Pilchuck),” Gray said. “Besides that, they shouldn’t be easy games. We’re going to need to work and play our best, but we’re looking to win Wesco.”

Tri expects an even better season out of Gray, but said the Vikings have several receivers on the roster he expects to contribute in a big way. Tri said having four or five receivers with 30-plus catches is not out of the question.

With the Vikings’ depth at receiver and Eason throwing them the ball, it could be a long season for opposing defensive backs.

“Hopefully it’s going to be really good and we’re going to connect a lot,” Gray said of his chemistry with Eason. “But we have four really good receivers and he’s going to try to spread out the ball a lot and hopefully it works out.”

IAN TERRY / THE HERALD

Lake Stevens wide receiver Tevin Gray

he caught a total of eight passes for 164 yards and one touchdown.

Many teams rely on summer camps and practices for their players not only to get in shape, but to build rapport among teammates. Perhaps nowhere is that relationship more important than between a receiver and a quarterback. With Gray injured, the connection between he and Eason didn’t develop until well into the regular season.

“It took us some time to build that momentum and gain

chemistry,” Tri said. “You could see they were good, but then they had the chemistry and that’s when it really started to blossom.”

In Week 5, against Mount Vernon, Gray caught six passes for 73 yards. The next week he caught seven passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns against Arlington.

“By Week 5 or Week 6 his hamstring started to heal up and he started to gain some confidence and got into football shape and then all of the sudden you started seeing his numbers (go up),” Tri said.

Word from the coach: “This is a group of exceptional young men who have bonded together over the course of the offseason through participating in expansive conditioning and weight training programs.

Our football team is fortunate to have such great senior leadership, as well as a group of tremendous underclassmen who have followed the lead of our seniors. ”

Word from the coach: “We’ve got seven returners on offense and seven returners on defense. I like the fact that we’ve got some experience coming back. It’s a great group of kids that have worked very hard in the offseason to try to put themselves in a position to be successful for this season. ... I’m very excited about the group of guys that we have.”

Word from the coach: “We have several key starters returning, but it always comes down to the offensive line and how they jell together.

We have a deep competition right now at offensive line and that will just make us better in the long run.

Leadership through the spring and summer has been outstanding. ...

We are excited to see what this season has in store.”

Word from the coach: “Last year, I got here in July and had to throw everything together pretty quickly.

This year, our seniors have really stepped up and been leaders off the field. ... We had great camps this summer, and we’re dependent on an experienced offensive line and a running back with a lot of experience.

Hopefully, we’ll be able to mesh better as a team than we did last year. ”

to win a national title “is certainly gratifying,” Miller said. “You know sooner or later you’re going to pass the baton, but I didn’t feel like I’d passed it. I just felt like it was kind of gone. So to be able to come back from those injuries, it was a real nice win.”

second hole.

The next day Kwak was part of an 18-member U.S. team, boys and girls, that defeated a team of international players in a best-ball tournament of two-person teams.

Kwak and his partner, Jake Miller of Richmond, Ind., played well, shooting 4 under par, but they lost to Mauricio Figueroa of Mexico and Rodrigo Rodas of Guatemala, who shot 5 under.

And that was pretty much the only disappointment in an otherwise terrific week of golf for Kwak. “It was fun. And it was very exciting,” said the softspoken youngster.

Kwak was born in Los Angeles on Jan. 1, 2001 — his birthday is 01/01/01 — but the next year his father and mother, Andrew and M.J., moved back to their native Korea, where they lived for the next seven years. Returning to the United States in 2009, the family settled first in Snohomish, but later moved to Mill Creek, and then last year to Mukilteo.

Alvin Kwak spoke no English when he arrived back in the U.S., which made it difficult to make friends.

“I had nothing to do,” he said, “so my dad bought me golf clubs and took me to the (nearby) Super Range. ... I think I was excited about getting the clubs, but I didn’t know what I was supposed to do.”

He attended summer golf camps and also began working with a coach, which helped him learn the game’s fundamentals.

Kwak also practices almost every day during the winter. If the weather is rainy, his mother drives him to the Super Range, which has covered tees.

From the outset, that kind of dedication produced a steady drop in his scores. His father, a casual golfer himself, was soon getting beat by his up-and-coming son.

“He made me quit golf,” Andrew Kwak said with a smile. “He started to beat me on golf scores, and when he was 11 I quit golf. ... I’m shocked (by his progress), but really proud of him.”

Alvin Kwak, who will start eighth grade at Harbour Pointe Middle School this week, can already hit his driver 230 to 240 yards, and his 5-iron 170 yards.

But the best part of his game, he said, “is my iron accuracy and my putting.”

His biggest challenge, as it is for many older players, is mastering the game’s mental aspect.

“I’ll get messed up really easily,” he explained.

“Someone says something bad and I’ll get messed up. Or if I have a couple of bad holes I’ll get messed up.

It’s kind of hard for me to come back (from that).”

In the future, Kwak would like to attend Stanford University, where he hopes to play on the men’s golf team. Beyond college, he dreams of playing professionally.

“I want to become one of the best golfers in the PGA (Tour),” he said.

SEAHAWKS | Notebook

Seahawks bring back Walters

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — Bryan Walters is a returner is more ways than one.

The Seattle Seahawks signed back Walters, the wide receiver/punt returner/ kick returner, on Monday to their active roster. Just two days earlier they had released him among their final preseason cuts.

The Seattle-area native who was on the active roster for the Seahawks in February’s Super Bowl was back on the practice field at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center in Renton wearing his familiar No. 19. He was practicing with the rest of the Super Bowl champions for Thursday’s NFL opener against Green Bay at CenturyLink Field.

All risk-adverse Seahawks fans — at least those worried Seattle All-Pro safety Earl Thomas was a standing target for opponents on 40-yard sprints right at him — smiled over the move.

The team announced Walters’ return about 90 minutes after head coach Pete Carroll had been asked during his weekly press conference, “Is Earl Thomas returning punts?”

The Seahawks’ coach responded hesitantly with two words: “Yeah ... yeah.”

It wasn’t exactly a convincing or unequivocal response because at the time the team was waiting on a procedural issue for the release of wide receiver Phil Bates before it could add Walters to the active roster. Carroll couldn’t officially say Walters was yet on the team. Thus, he wasn’t adamant at all about Thomas being the primary punt returner this week.

Walters, 6 feet and 190 pounds in his fifth season out of Cornell and Juanita High School in Kirkland, returned every punt and kickoff for the Seahawks last week in their exhibition finale at Oakland. And he was fearless to the point of being reckless returning punts in exhibition games last month. The Ivy League’s career leader in punt returns brought back four for 46 yards in three preseason games; he missed the

Kick-punt returner/ wide receiver Bryan Walters, who was cut on Saturday, re-signed with the Seahawks on Monday.

third one against Chicago because of bruised ribs he got running headlong into Chargers the week before.

Walters also returned nine kickoffs for 229 yards in the preseason, an average of 25.4 yards per return.

He said the fumble he had returning a kickoff in the first quarter last week at Oakland, when a Raider came at his right side with a downward swipe at the ball while he was getting hit by another from the left, was the second fumble of his life. The first came at Cornell when he was wearing long sleeves and ball slipped off one of those.

So Walters won’t be in long sleeves Thursday against Green Bay, or in any other game; he hasn’t worn them since. Last year, his third season with the Seahawks, he played in four games and started one at wide receiver.

Thomas has not returned a punt in a real NFL game in any of his four previous seasons; his last such work was seven punt returns in 2009, his final season at the University of Texas. He returned

four punts this preseason for 68 yards, 59 of which came on one return in the second exhibition against San Diego.

The star safety said after that game he relishes having multiple opportunities to have the ball in his hands, that it reminds him of playing every down in high school back in Orange, Texas.

The problem here for the Seahawks, of course, is that Thomas is their indispensable anchor, ball-hawk and instinctive field general on the defense’s back line.

That’s quite as asset to risk on punt returns.

Carroll has maintained throughout the summer that he wants his best athletes to have the most opportunities to have the ball in their hands, and that’s why Thomas was back there first through most of last month.

But why would Seattle add Walters to its active roster and waive Bates three days before the opener, only to have Walters stand on the sideline Thursday solely as the seventh wide receiver?

“We really trust in him and believe in him,” Carroll said last week of Walters. “He’s a really good ballplayer.”

The result for now is what every coach loves: Uncertainty with his opponent over who will play what as the foe game plans. Yet at this point it would be a surprise if Thomas returns all of Green Bay’s punts — or even the first one — Thursday.

Keeping Bates on the active roster initially and then releasing him when all other teams have set their practice squads makes it more likely the Seahawks can get him through waivers and then add him to their practice squad in a couple days, if they so choose. Bates is a former quarterback at Ohio University who joined Seattle’s practice squad last November.

Monday’s move is a potential way for the Seahawks to have both Walters and Bates develop under their contractual control.

Extra points WR Percy Harvin practiced for the second consecutive day after missing three days with what Carroll said was a personal matter. Harvin played in just one regular-season game last season after a significant hip injury. “It feels tremendously good right now,” he said. “I’m blessed to be healthy.” ... The Seahawks’ official practice report to the league Monday: Did not participate: TE Cooper Helfet (knee), RB Christine Michael (hamstring), C Lemuel Jeanpierre (neck), LB Kevin Pierre-Louis (hamstring), CB Tharold Simon (knee). Limited participation: CB Jeremy Lane (groin), LB Bruce Irvin (hip surgery), WR Kevin Norwood (listed as an ankle injury, coming off surgery last month for a bone spur in his foot). ... Carroll said he was “hopeful” Lane, the fifth, “nickel” defensive back on long-yardage plays, will play against the Packers. If not, CB DeShawn Shead could see time. ... The coach also used “hopeful” to describe the prospects of Irvin and Norwood playing. ... Carroll said Michael, who missed the exhibition finale after tweaking his hamstring in practice, “is banged up. We’ll figure it out later in the week.” ...

Rookie DE Cassius Marsh practiced after hurting his hip flexor at Oakland. Carroll said he is in “good shape.” ... The Seahawks’ practice squad is now at a full 10 after two more signings: DE Julius Warmsley and DB Josh Aubrey.

Cougars’ quarterback Halliday at his best in opener

By Jacob Thorpe The Spokesman-Review

PULLMAN — When Washington State was at its worst during its deflating loss to Rutgers last Thursday, senior quarterback Connor Halliday was at his best. After a costly turnover in the fourth quarter, Halliday ran over to the offending receiver but did not express

field pretty well. I think he has a really good feel for what’s going on. It always comes down, to me, to decision-making and accuracy.

I hope that he takes a good step forward in that department for us.”

Lindquist will be Miles’ backup, with redshirt freshman Troy Williams listed at third-string.

Miles hasn’t been made available to the media since issuing a brief statement and taking only a few questions after a practice early last month. But Petersen has said a few times that he’s done “everything right” since being suspended in February amid the assault investigation, and had a few pretty strong practices

his frustration. Instead, he gave him a high-five and a smile.

“I was just telling him that we’re going to need another score and I’m going to be coming back to you so forget about that,” Halliday said. “We’re going to win this game and we’ll laugh about it later.”

Halliday went back to the receiver but the Cougars

did not win and it’s doubtful that the fourth quarter of WSU’s final Seattle game will bring back many pleasant memories. But people may remember that as a defining moment in Halliday’s growth as a quarterback.

Halliday is not a heavy man and he’s had to absorb more hits over the years than most quarterbacks. In the past, Halliday’s frustration

became more apparent as the sacks mounted. But after each of three grimaceinducing hits on Thursday, Halliday was upbeat, and his postgame praise for his young offensive linemen was effusive.

“I think he really took off the middle of last season and did a lot of great things,” Washington head coach Mike Leach said.

during fall camp.

Petersen said before camp started that Miles would be behind the other quarterbacks because of how little of the offense he knew. But Petersen seems pleased with how quickly he’s picked it up.

“I think he’s got a pretty good football IQ,” Petersen said. “We’ll see how this thing goes, but him not being here in the spring and so many things that we’ve changed, he can recall it real rapidly and say, ‘oh yeah, we ran that against whoever, Oregon State. This was a third-down route for us.’ So he can put things together pretty quickly, football-wise.

There’s a lot of that going on.

So for him to get no reps in spring and just get fall with us, he’s very much in tune, as much as other quarterbacks are, and now we get him more reps and see what can happen.”

Sophomore receiver John Ross, who scored both of UW’s touchdowns against Hawaii — a 20-yard run on a reverse and a 91-yard catch from Lindquist — said Miles’ return to the field could provide better cohesion between quarterback and receiver, given his experience playing last season in place of injured starter Keith Price.

“It’s so different,” Ross said. “He filled in for Keith last year and he did a great job starting, so it’s like guys are used to playing with him more. That’s why I said we’ve got to get back to the whole chemistry thing.”

“Our defense took a lot of snaps.

And how we want them to play hard — we can talk about it all we want. Everybody thinks they play hard and I think there’s a fine line between playing at that next level in terms of effort. ...

We didn’t always do that but for the most part we did, and I think if we get more consistent there, it’ll help us.”

Take another look After reviewing film of Saturday’s game, Petersen said he thinks the Huskies played harder than he originally believed.

“We need to be cleaner on our execution. It wasn’t a lack of not playing hard,” he said.

Notes Petersen said senior right tackle Ben Riva was “ready to go, for the most part” against Hawaii, but he chose not to play him as he works through “an ailment.” Riva did suit up and went through pre-game warmups with a brace on his knee. Redshirt freshman Coleman Shelton, who started in Riva’s place on Saturday, will start again this week. ... Petersen said junior receiver Jaydon Mickens will remain the team’s punt returner despite a shaky performance Saturday, but that freshman receiver Dante Pettis will be in the mix, too. ... Junior Travis Feeney is listed as a starter at linebacker ahead of redshirt freshman Keishawn Bierria, who started the opener.

locker, his go-to footwear when he isn’t on the field. And during his nearly 12-minute session with reporters Monday, Sherman was his usual, playful self. It was something he hadn’t always been during media sessions during offseason workouts and training camp, perhaps in part because he was still upset that a couple Seattle media outlets had published a real-estate listing of the new house he purchased in the offseason, leading to unwelcome visitors.

Consider it all a small sign that Sherman, even after a big payday and so many offseason distractions, appears to be himself with Seattle’s season opener only days away.

Of course Sherman’s personality and an old pair of slippers aren’t ultimately what matter this week. What matters is if the Sherman on the field Thursday and beyond plays like the Sherman who earned first-team All-Pro honors in 2012 and 2013, like the Sherman whose play convinced the Seahawks that he was worth a contract extension that included $40 million in guaranteed money.

If the Seahawks got in 2014 the same Richard Sherman who has been the game’s best cornerback over the previous two seasons, they’d take that in a heartbeat. But head coach Pete Carroll is confident they could be getting even more this season.

“He’s had his best camp, best offseason work, clearly,” Carroll said. “He’s so disciplined about what he has been doing. His attitude has been perfect, he hasn’t missed a minute of practice, he has taken all the reps, done everything we’ve asked him to do. I think he’s been his most focused, he’s just been on it the whole time. He’s had a great camp.”

Safety Earl Thomas is the most irreplaceable player on Seattle’s defense. And there are plenty of other Pro Bowl-caliber players from the frontfour to the secondary. But Sherman has clearly emerged as the face of the defense, and perhaps the team, both because of his outstanding play and also his boisterous personality. This season seemingly should be a big test for Sherman with so many offseason distractions and a drastically increased level of fame. But since the Seahawks returned to action this summer, Sherman has been, well, Sherman.

“He shows you why he’s able to do the things that he has done and be so good for this early stretch of his career, and then continue to work with great focus in pointing towards having a great year this year,” Carroll said. “He couldn’t have done anything more for us. I’m really happy to be able to report that.”

Defensive coordinator Dan Quinn agrees, saying, “This is one of the best technical times he has had in terms of just staying on it every day, step, kick, lockout, and that requires real discipline to do that all the time, down after down.”

If Sherman remains the technician he has always been, and if his dedication to studying opponents remains intact, then no amount of notoriety or money or even new shoes are going to keep him from remaining one of the game’s best defensive players.

“It’s just being detail-oriented and staying on my P’s and Q’s,” Sherman said. “Making sure you’re being diligent in your preparation. I think I was incredibly diligent. I think as a secondary we just wanted to up the bar, up the ante and play very well, and I think we did that.”

Sherman refers to Seahawks headquarters as his sanctuary, and even if he did get caught up in the whirlwind of being one of the best players on a championship team, he knew that had to change when the team reported for camp.

“When you walk into this building, everything comes into place,” Sherman said. “I think when you step in here, it allows you to free your mind of all the distractions and everything off the field and really focus your craft to really get into what you want to get into. And to focus on getting better at the things you need to get better at. And I felt like I had areas that I had to get better at and I focused on those.

“It’s great being back in the building, it’s great being with your teammates. You kind of feel awkward and weird when you spend extended time and you spend months in the offseason, so when you spend months and you don’t have anything you kind of lose yourself for a second. You go on vacations and relax for a second and you’re like, where is my schedule? I don’t have things to do.”

Now Sherman has plenty to do, and this week it means dealing with Aaron Rodgers and one of the NFL’s top passing attacks. All season long, Sherman said his focus is on being disciplined, patient, not making the same mistake twice, and oh yeah, on “not getting bored in ball games.”

That could be a factor this season for Sherman, who has had eight interceptions in each of the past two seasons, but who was targeted much less frequently last season, and was avoided by preseason opponents almost entirely in Seattle’s first two games.

The key to avoiding that boredom, Sherman says, is to “Stay focused and understand that the ball can come at any time. Treat it like that, treat it like the ball is coming to your guy every time, which is tough when you go four quarters without the ball, and then four more quarters, but that’s what you’ve got to do.”

When Sherman and his non-slipper-covered feet walked out of the room at the end of his press conference, he asked a member of Seattle’s media relations staff about the number of press conferences left on his schedule, “What is it, 19 to go? 20?”

Nineteen or 20 more of these weekly sessions would have the Seahawks playing well into the postseason once again, and if Sherman really is even better this year, as Carroll suggests, that could go a long ways towards making another long season a reality.
