Eye doctor accused of molestation The Everett optometrist allegedly sexually assaulted and photographed a girl, 10, in his care while her father was in the waiting room.

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

EVERETT — Bail was set at $750,000 Wednesday for an Everett optometrist arrested for investigation of molesting a young patient while her father

was in the waiting room.

The allegations stem from an Aug. 20 appointment a 10-yearold girl had at the office of Dr. John O’Brien. He’s accused of squeezing the girl’s breasts and taking pictures of her after pulling down her pants and underwear.

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Andrew Alsdorf said he asked for a high bail because the doctor’s alleged actions “were extremely bold. I would call them predatory.” He also considers O’Brien a flight risk.

During an initial examination,

Her mind is sharp. It is her body that is wearing down.

Walters walks with the aid of two canes. She has osteoarthritis of the spine and arthritis in

Bryce Durst checks the pulse of her mom, Rosemary Walters, as Shane Cooper explains that Walters is in atrial fibrillation, a common type of abnormal heartbeat, Sept. 11 in Edmonds. Cooper is believed to be the first community paramedic in the state.

She is on a mission to remember.

Janna Hoehn is searching for photos of 16 men from Snohomish County who died in the Vietnam War. She’s been collecting pictures of fallen soldiers for the Faces Never Forgotten project for the past three years. It’s an effort to put a face and a story with every name that is etched on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial wall in Washington D.C. “It makes the person real,” Hoehn said. “When you see a picture, it changes the whole dynamic of the Vietnam memorial. It brings it to life.”

The Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund is compiling photos for the project. The nonprofit has also created the Wall of Faces, an online display with the photos. The group is raising money to build an education center next to the memorial on the National Mall.

So far, more than 37,000 photos have been collected to accompany the 58,300 names etched in the black granite wall. Hoehn has found almost 800 of those pictures.

She spends her spare time looking for them when she’s not

Both the girl and her dad returned to the waiting room after her eyes were dilated and waited 15 minutes for a follow-up exam. When the daughter was called, the father was told he wasn’t needed in the exam room. The father stayed in the waiting room, as instructed, Snell said.

The girl told authoriO’BRIEN ties she was alone in FAMILY CARE CLINIC WEBSITE the exam room with Dr. John the optometrist.

O’Brien O’Brien allegedly took off the girl’s shirt and squeezed her breasts, telling her that it was to check her symptoms.

The girl alleges he took pictures with his cellphone before instructing her to take off her pants.

When the girl questioned him, he allegedly repeated his instructions and pulled down her pants.

“The victim described there being a tug of war between them and her pulling her pants back up and him pulling them back down,” according to a police report filed to establish probable cause for the arrest.

“She said that O’Brien had told her repeatedly to close her eyes and that (it was) part of the exam. During these times she saw flashes of light.”

The girl said she believed he was photographing her with his cellphone.

She didn’t tell her father what happened but told her mother when she got home.

She was taken to a local hospital where a nurse did a forensic examination and called 911.

O’Brien, 33, of Bellevue, was interviewed by Everett police Sept. 11. He denied the allegations, but confirmed he remembered the appointment with the girl, the police report said.

“At the time, there was not enough evidence and O’Brien was released pending further investigation,” Snell said.

What Cooper has is the luxury of taking time. That’s not an option during a typical emergency call, when patients are panicked and seconds count.

“Now there is a conversation,” he said.

images consistent with the victim’s version of the incident, Snell said.

O’Brien was arrested at his Bellevue home Tuesday. He was booked into Snohomish County Jail for investigation of child molestation, sexual exploitation of a minor and possession of depictions of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct.

Investigators intend to conduct a more detailed search of the cellphone, as well as his home computer, storage devices and tablet, Snell said.

In court Wednesday, the deputy prosecutor said that it appeared O’Brien tried to discard a cellphone and hard drive into a car shortly before he was arrested. He described O’Brien’s ties to the community as “very minimal.”

O’Brien recently moved to Washington state from North Carolina where he operated a clinic in Fayetteville with his wife, who also is an optometrist. That practice was open for just a few months before it closed earlier this year.

The business webpage reported he was commissioned into the Army through a competitive scholarship program and started active duty as an Army captain at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

The brief biography said John O’Brien served with the Fellowship of Christian Optometrists on a medical mission trip to Haiti where he performed hundreds of eye exams “for the locals while spreading the Word.” It also said he is a father of young children.

O’Brien was licensed to practice optometry in Washington state on March 27, according to state Department of Health records.

An emergency meeting of a panel from the state Optometry Board took place Wednesday. That group decided that an investigation is warranted.

“Because an investigation is active, that’s all we can say about it at this time,” said Kelly Stowe, a state health department spokeswoman.

The board can issue immediate suspensions in cases in which charges are considered serious and patients are deemed in danger.

paid for the around-theclock care she’s providing.

Cooper checks the swelling in Walters’ legs and ankles. They talk about the many medicines she is taking, her blood sugar levels and the time of day those levels are being recorded.

Mainly, he’s making sure she’s following her doctor’s orders.

Walters desperately wants to stay put in her cozy home, which has a bookshelf bulging with hard-bound classics. Too many of her friends have died in nursing homes, she said.

“You want to keep your independence for as long as you can,” she said.

Walters also doesn’t want to be perceived as a chronic complainer.

That’s the beauty of the paramedic who makes house calls before there is a problem, her daughter said.

“It really has been a godsend,” Durst said. “Mom tends to downplay a lot of the issues.”

Walters is one of an everchanging number of people on Cooper’s case load.

Earlier this week, the list totaled 155. Each is designated a row on a 38-column spreadsheet he maintains.

working as a floral designer in Kihei, Hawaii. Hoehn, 58, got involved after a trip to see the wall several years ago. She was in high school during the Vietnam War so it was the first memorial she wanted to visit.

“Seeing all those names, I cried,” Hoehn said. “It was very, very powerful. It changed my life.”

Hoehn had two cousins who served in Vietnam but she did not know anyone who died in the war. Still, during that visit, she wanted to take home an etching of a name from the wall. She chose Gregory John Crossman, a soldier who was missing in action. She returned home and started researching to find his family. Hoehn had hoped to give them the etching she’d made.

Though she never found his family, she did find a photo of Crossman. Later, she saw a news story about the project seeking photos and sent Crossman’s in. A few days later, Jan Scruggs, the founder and president of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund, asked for her help.

“It was such an honor,” Hoehn said.

She started researching and found photos of all 42 fallen soldiers from Maui County, where she lives now. Once she’d collected those, she made a display. She started presenting it at high schools and community meetings.

She said she feels close to the Maui soldiers because she has learned so much about them through her research.

“I feel like I have 42 brothers watching over me,” she said.

She continued her search for six fallen soldiers from her

Initially, most of his stops were at homes with the district’s most frequent 911 callers. That has changed. Now the lion’s share are referrals from other paramedics and firefighters who have identified people in need of follow-up.

There’s a mix of patients.

Many have fallen. Some have dementia or mental illness. Others report weakness, breathing problems or seizures.

Ideally, Cooper’s roster will be in constant flux.

A big part of his job is to connect patients to other professionals, including nurses and social workers.

“I think it’s going to take all three of us working together,” Fire District 1 Capt. Shaughn Maxwell said. “There is obviously a gap we are filling. We want to route them to the right professionals.

“Our challenge is how to keep up with the demand,” he added. “How do we sustain this?”

Fire District 1 spent years researching successful community paramedic programs in Australia, Europe and Canada.

The Verdant Health

Commission, an offshoot of the Snohomish County Public Hospital District No. 2, found merit in the fire district’s vision. It’s providing $144,426 annually over two years to get the program off the ground.

“It certainly seems to be reaching the goals of providing direct support to people with high needs,” said George Kosovich, Verdant’s director of programs and community investments.

It also is highlighting unmet medical needs in the community, which is important for Verdant so it can better understand where it fits in and how can it can help, he said.

The job of monitoring the effectiveness of the community paramedic program falls to Robin Fenn, research manager with Snohomish County Human Services.

Initial results — though taken from a small sample of cases — are promising, she said.

She compared 13 patients who could be tracked for three months before and after the community paramedic began in January. They accounted

hometown, Hemet, California. Hoehn, who graduated from Hemet High in 1973, said she remembers being moved when she saw how the soldiers were treated upon their return from Vietnam.

“The boys were being spit on. They were being called terrible names,” she said.

“Most of these young men were drafted. For them to go do what they were asked to do and be treated so horribly is just heartbreaking.”

Hoehn then got involved in finding the photos of Native American soldiers from California. Her commitment grew after she learned that close to 90 percent of the 86,000 Native Americans who enlisted in the Vietnam War had volunteered.

That led to her decision to take on the rest of California. So far, she has completed 29 of the state’s 58 counties.

Because she has family in Washington, finding soldiers here has become her most recent mission.

“People, especially those my age and older who remember the Vietnam War, want to make sure these boys are honored,” she said.

Hoehn was recognized earlier this year for putting in more than 500 hours of work for veterans with the President’s Volunteer Service Award. But, she said, her life has become more enriched through meeting people, particularly the families of the fallen soldiers. Now, she hopes people here will assist in her quest to remember 16 Snohomish County veterans.

“To be able to help those families honor their loved ones, there’s nothing like that feeling,” she said. “It’s such an important project to remember our heroes. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.”

for 61 emergency medical calls beforehand and 23 after — a 62 percent reduction. The patients’ emergency room visits also dropped by 54 percent.

“It is hard to track saved dollars,” Maxwell said.

Other fire departments in Snohomish County and beyond are now asking about the Fire District 1 experience.

“There is a lot of interest, a lot of passion, but not much money,” Fenn said.

A key factor in the success of the program is the personality of the paramedic, Maxwell said.

The bottom line is they must be patient and good listeners.

After visiting with Walters last Thursday afternoon, Cooper dropped in on Julia Williams in north Edmonds.

The fire district first began visiting the twostory home when Williams’ mom, who has dementia, took a fall. She eventually was placed in a Shoreline rehab center.

It became apparent that Williams, 71, also needed help.

That afternoon, she asked Cooper to interpret

one of her mother’s medical bills.

They talked about the need to sell the house and what could be done with its contents.

Making house payments has become increasingly stressful — “like keeping the Titanic floating,” Williams said.

Williams reported that she had an assessment scheduled with a psychologist the next day.

As he was preparing to leave, Cooper reviewed his notes.

“So I’m going to give you a buzz in the morning,” Cooper said.

“To keep me going off the deep end,” she replied, with a smile.

Cooper did call her to remind her of her appointment and later followed up to make sure she went.

He makes a lot of followup calls.

If patterns continue, his list of patients will grow.

There’s plenty of hidden need in a fire district of 225,000 people.

Everett wants to ‘refresh’ its logo Send your design in. If it’s chosen, you’ll get $5,000

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — The city is holding a competition to select a new official logo and is offering $5,000 for the new design.

The contest is open to anyone, and the winning design will find its way onto city documents, uniforms, vehicles and other city properties.

The current logo is only 20 years old, but its angled style seems more in line with what people in the 1970s thought the future would look like.

“I think most people in the city

agree that it’s time for a refresh, a new look,” said city Communications Director Meghan Pembroke.

To keep costs down, the new logo will be put on stationery and the website first, where it’s cheap or free to do so, and only gradually added it to uniforms or vehicles as those are replaced or upgraded.

The contest will allow anyone to upload either a completed logo or a design concept. The public will be able to vote on favorites, and the public’s top 15, plus five more selected by the city’s Cultural Arts

Commission, will be forwarded to a judging panel to pick the winner.

The winning design will be presented to the City Council for approval in late November or early December.

The cost for the process isn’t expected to be higher than $10,000 to $12,000, including the $5,000 award money, Pembroke said, and mostly reflects staff time and resources.

The city is also in the process of upgrading its website, which the City Council approved Aug. 20. That project, at a cost of about $79,000 plus an annual

Elephant-size honor for Oso responders

With the busy summer season coming to an end, Washington State Ferries is preparing to alter the schedule this week and fares next month.

On the Mukilteo-Clinton route, that will mean fewer late-night sailings during the week.

The 11 p.m. and 1:30 a.m. boats out of Clinton and the 11:30 p.m. and 2 a.m. sailings from Mukilteo will be halted Sundays through Thursdays, according to the schedule released Wednesday by the agency. Those runs will continue to be offered on Fridays and Saturdays.

As for fares, the surcharge added during the peak season of summer will go away Oct. 1. The surcharge varies, ranging from $1.60 for a small vehicle and driver on the Mukilteo-Clinton route to $2.70 for the same vehicle and driver traveling the Edmonds-Kingston route.

Also in October, two-boat service on the Port TownsendCoupeville route will come to an end. Starting Oct. 14, only one boat will ferry passengers and vehicles between the two communities.

Information on all the seasonal changes can be found at www.wsdot.wa.gov/ferries.

Some pot applications in jeopardy

By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — Washington state is warning dozens of people who applied to run legal marijuana shops that their chance of getting a license is in jeopardy.

The Liquor Control Board on Wednesday began sending letters to 56 businesses around the state, giving them 60 days to schedule an interview with a licensing inspector.

The board says most of those businesses scored lucky numbers in lotteries conducted in April — putting them in a good position to win a coveted marijuana retail license — but they haven’t moved forward with their applications since then.

Some of the applicants might never have intended to get into the retail pot business, while others failed to find a viable

location or financing for their store, said Becky Smith, the board’s marijuana licensing manager.

“A lot of people thought they’d be able to sell their license — they’d win the lottery and they’d sell it to the highest bidder,” she said. “People were surprised they couldn’t sell their license until they actually got licensed.”

So far the state has issued 57 retail marijuana licenses, and as of early this month, 32 of the shops had opened. They reported collecting taxes of $3.5 million on more than $14 million in sales since the first stores opened July 8, despite frequent supply shortages that have forced some shops to close intermittently.

The state is continuing to work to issue licenses that will allow more growers to start producing marijuana and more stores to sell, but Smith

said the foot-dragging by the would-be pot shops is slowing the process. In Seattle, which the board slated to have 21 marijuana shops, just one license has been issued so far — to Cannabis City south of downtown.

Closing down any applications that aren’t likely to move forward would free up spots for applicants who scored farther down the list in the lotteries.

In addition to scheduling an interview, the applicants are expected to provide information that will allow the investigator to proceed with financial and criminal background checks.

“They need to set up an interview and have a place they’re going to operate,” Smith said. “It’s time to provide us with names — who are their financiers, who are their true parties of interest.”

Five applicants in

Seattle were receiving the board’s letters this week.

Seven letters were going out in unincorporated King County, five in Snohomish County, and two each in Spokane, Yakima, Walla Walla and Vancouver. No letters were issued in any of the dozens of cities and counties that have adopted temporary or permanent bans on marijuana businesses.

One of the applicants getting a letter is Greener Seattle, which had proposed doing business on Aurora Avenue in North Seattle but has been trying to find a different spot. Eugene Frid, who works with the shop, said Wednesday that Greener Seattle still wants to open a recreational marijuana store, and the 60-day warning should give it plenty of time.

“We have a space. We’re just looking for something better,” he said.

Man charged with murder in 2 deaths

By Dave Kolpack

He declined further comment.

The indictment comes nine months after Carlile, 63, was shot in the kitchen of his house in an upscale Spokane neighborhood after returning from church, and 2 ½years after Clarke, 30, was last seen at Henrikson’s North Dakota trucking company, Blackstone LLC. Clarke’s body has never been found.

Henrikson, 36, formerly of Watford City, North Dakota, has told investigators that Carlile owed him nearly $1.9 million for their dealings in Kingdom Dynamics, an oil development firm.

The indictment accuses Henrikson of hiring Timothy Suckow, of Spokane, to commit the crimes.

Suckow was charged in Spokane County Superior Court with first-degree murder in Carlile’s death.

Suckow’s lawyer, Roger Peven of Spokane, did not immediately return a phone message to his

office Wednesday.

The indictment also alleges that Henrikson conspired to kill three other people.

U.S. Attorney Timothy Purdon said Wednesday his office has filed a motion to dismiss the illegal weapons charges against Henrikson so that he can be transported to Spokane to face the charges in the indictment.

Henrikson also is part of a federal civil case in which he and his wife are being asked to turn over land in the oil patch and $640,000 in cash. That case alleges mail fraud, wire fraud and money laundering.

Authorities believe Henrikson and his wife executed a scheme to defraud various investors and individuals in states including North Dakota, Texas, Florida and Washington.

Henrikson has previous felony convictions for burglary, theft, eluding police and attempted assault.

unacceptable and a total lack of leadership.”

And it was certainly nothing like the scene in January. That’s when the council didn’t hesitate to appoint Democratic Rep. Marko Liias to succeed Sen. Paull Shin, who had resigned, and picked Lillian Ortiz-Self to fill Liias’ seat.

It didn’t bother the council at all that Liias and Ortiz-Self had both been campaigning for the offices to which they were appointed. As a result, council members did

much more than bestow a title upon each of them.

Then put Liias in a new political office and OrtizSelf in power in time for the 2014 legislative session.

Now Inslee will become the first governor in more than a half-century to choose someone to serve in the Legislature.

Governors used to be the ones filling the occasional legislative vacancy.

A law change in 1956 gave county council representatives the responsibility.

Governors would intercede only when county leaders failed to act, a failure that hadn’t occurred until this week’s bout of inaction in Everett.

Inslee, who will pick from among Harmsworth, Low and Roulstone, has until around Oct. 24 to act.

He’ll likely be urged by fellow Democrats to take his time. Though the first-term governor enjoys jabbing Republicans once in a while, playing politics by delaying action doesn’t seem worth it.

It seems by now this should simply be a matter of deciding.

around such reports.

WSU Regent Mike Worthy said he needed to delay the meetings with Morris, Wilson and UW leadership when it became apparent they were pushing for a contract when he had not yet informed his own board of the progress.

Worthy and WSU President Elson Floyd also said they wanted to publicize a feasibility report commissioned by WSU that they believe lays out a compelling case for WSU to have its own medical school.

“I felt no urgency to rush out and sign a deal,” Worthy said.

Floyd and Worthy say they anticipate further meetings with UW in hopes of reaching a deal to establish a WSU medical school to operate alongside UW’s existing five-state program, which offers medical

training at WSU along with public universities in Wyoming, Alaska, Montana and Idaho.

The two meetings this summer, which also included UW President Michael Young and UW Regent Orin Smith, were disclosed during a Tuesday meeting of a UW task force considering changes to the current arrangement.

The task force will tell Young that UW should expand the number of WWAMI students in Spokane as fast as it can.

Worthy said he told the group in both of the private meetings this summer — one in July in Seattle, the other in August in Spokane — that WSU would seek accreditation for its own medical school.

WSU regents approved that move in a meeting

last week.

A WSU medical school is the logical next step from the significant investments the school has made in health sciences, he said.

State Sen. Michael Baumgartner, R-Spokane, who serves on the higher education committee and is vice chairman of the budget-writing Senate Ways and Means Committee, urged the schools to find a solution.

But he warned UW representatives, “there’s a great question about how interested UW is in Spokane.”

A pilot program to teach second-year med students in Spokane only drew nine UW students this year.

There was funding for 20 students.

“That doesn’t impress a lot of folks,” Baumgartner said.

FARGO, N.D. — A felon accused of fraud and terror in the North Dakota oil patch will be transported to Washington state to face federal charges unsealed Wednesday that allege he ordered the killings of a business associate and one of his former trucking company employees.

James Henrikson, who has been jailed in North Dakota since January on illegal weapons charges, has been indicted on murder for hire charges in the deaths of Doug Carlile and Kristopher “K.C.” Clarke.

Henrikson could face the death penalty if convicted.

He appeared in court Wednesday in Bismarck wearing a black and white prison jumpsuit and wrist and leg restraints.

He quietly answered the questions of a magistrate judge, who approved a request for both the U.S. Marshals Service and the Department of Homeland

Council members emerged 25 minutes later, sat down to resume the council’s public session and, in one breath, voted 5-0 to ask Inslee to make the decision. They then took another break.

Scott Morris, chairman and CEO of Avista Corp., a Spokane-based utility, represented Spokane’s interests in the negotiations, along with former Providence Health Care executive Mike Wilson. They wanted the two schools to strike a deal before each released reports bolstering their own plans for training more doctors in Spokane.

Norma Garcia Johnson

B ob was born i n B axter Springs, Kansas, April 6, 1942, to Herman and Ardellia (Brown) Eskew. He passed peacefully September 3, 2014, holding my hand.

At age 5 his family moved t o Wa s h i n g t o n w h e r e h e grew up in the Monroe area.

He graduated from Snohomish High School in 1960, joining the Army soon af ter. He retired in 2003 from Snohomish County Road Maintenance after 33 years.

Bob was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in September 2005. After nine y e a r s a n d 1 3 0 chemotherapy treatments, cancer did not win, his heart was just too tired to carr y on.

Instead of feeling sorry for himself, he became a cancer warrior. He had a positive, never give up attitude. He told his story to anyone that would listen, always admonishing, “don’t be negative, and don’t let negative people in your life”.

He sometimes would wander around the hospital floor during his chemotherapy, trailing his IV stand, to inspire other patients.

Cancer taught him tolerance; he became more compassionate and understanding of things that were new to his world.

Bob was true to himself; you always knew where you s to o d , h i s o p i n i o n s we r e strong, his beliefs were set in stone and he had no filter when expressing his opinions. His sense of humor was dr y, he mispronounced words (I think mostly to annoy me) and he hugged like there was no tomorrow.

Our relationship was unique, full of quips and s a r c a s m , o f t e n misunderstood by others; but our marriage was strong, o u r l ove a n d d evot i o n to each other was all encompassing.

Bob was preceded in death by his daughter, Brenda and sister, Jane.

Surviving siblings are: May, Lola, Marie, Cathy and Don. Bob leaves his daughter, T h e r e s a C a r r a s c o ( Ku r t ) ; grandson, John Wolfer ( M u r i e l ) ; g r e a t granddaughter, Theryn and granddaughter Hope Anne.

He also leaves his stepsons that he loved as his own, Chris “Catfish” Mallang ( K a n d i ) ; g r a n d d a u g h t e r, Christina Mallang (The B a by ) ; C o d y O u t s o n ; a n d grandson, Tyler Outson (Ty Boy). And me, Rae, his loving wife.

THRUSDAY, 09.18.2014

Scots voting on split The Washington Post GLASGOW, Scotland — A referendum on Scottish independence that was once expected to collapse in resounding defeat was instead going down to the wire Wednesday, with each side scouring lush Highland ridges, Gothic back alleys and rocky coasts seeking any advantage on the eve of a vote that could divide this island after three centuries of union.

Polls opened at 11 p.m. PDT Wednesday.

The referendum has transfixed Scotland’s 5.3 million people, and analysts predict an extraordinary 90 percent of eligible voters on Thursday to answer a simple but sweeping question: “Should Scotland be an independent country?”

But as much as the vote will turn on attitudes toward

Scottish nationalism, it also will be a verdict on a group nowhere to be seen on the ballot: British politicians.

“It’s not that I’m against the English,” said Karen McGurk, an out-of-work mother of two who lives in state-subsidized housing on the south side of Glasgow. “But the politicians in London have behaved absolutely shockingly. They’re only for the rich.”

McGurk said she’s a firm “yes” voter, as are most of her neighbors on a block of modest red-sandstone houses that mixes working-class native Scots with South Asian immigrants. In another era, the area might have lined up firmly behind the Labour Party’s call to vote “no” — a position that has been joined by Britain’s two other biggest parties.

But residents said they were now relishing the chance to

give the political establishment, Labour included, a kick in the teeth — even if it meant killing off Great Britain in the process.

The anger has many roots: a seemingly unending stream of foreign wars, a financial crisis that accelerated an already widening gap between rich and poor and an insular and privileged British political class that seems to only look after its own.

“Ten years ago, I couldn’t have imagined Scottish independence. But you have this extremely complacent leadership just taking people for granted across the country,” said Jamie Drever, 37, who has never been involved in a campaign before but was out knocking on doors to spread the gospel of independence in Glasgow this week. “They’ve inherited these grand old

buildings and are harking back to a Britain that no longer exists. But the reality tells us that the British economy is in the toilet.”

The sour mood has offered “yes” advocates a golden opportunity. Alex Salmond, the tart-tongued Scottish independence leader whose working-class origins set him apart from the privileged clique that dominates politics in London, has skillfully deflected questions about Scotland’s viability by reminding voters of their antipathy for the heirs to Disraeli, Gladstone and Churchill.

In the campaign’s closing days, Salmond has cast voters’ choice as one between “Team Scotland” and “Team Westminster” — the latter a reference to the palace in which London politicians ply their trade.

House OKs arms for rebels Associated Press WASHINGTON — The Republican-controlled House voted grudgingly Wednesday to give the administration authority to train and arm Syrian rebels as President Barack Obama emphasized anew that American forces “do not and will not have a combat mission” in the struggle against Islamic State militants in either Iraq or Syria.

The 273-156 vote crossed party lines to an unusual degree in a Congress marked by near-ceaseless partisanship.

Top Republican and Democratic leaders backed Obama’s plan seven weeks before midterm elections, while dozens of rank-and-file lawmakers in both parties opposed it.

The provision was added to spending legislation that will ensure the federal government operates normally after the Sept. 30 end of the budget year.

Final approval is expected in the Senate on Thursday.

Even supporters of the military plan found little to trumpet. “This is the best of a long list of bad options,” said Rep. Jim Moran, D-Va. One Republican supporter noted the measure includes strict limits on Obama’s authority. “Members on both sides of the aisle are very concerned that too much of Congress’ warmaking power has gone to the president,” said Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma.

Obama’s remarks and similar comments Wednesday by House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi of California seemed designed to reassure liberal lawmakers that the new military mission would be limited.

In a statement following the vote, Obama said the House “took an important step forward as our nation unites to

NEW YORK — Using artificial sweeteners may set the stage for diabetes in some people by hampering the way their bodies handle sugar, suggests a preliminary study done mostly in mice.

The authors said they are not recommending any changes in how people use artificial sweeteners based on their study, which included some human experiments. The researchers and outside experts said more study is needed, while industry groups called the research limited and said other evidence shows sweeteners are safe and useful for weight control.

The study from researchers

Study finds problems with drugs from India WASHINGTON — Generic drugs that some Indian companies send to African countries are lower quality than the same medicines the companies sell at home and outside Africa, according to tests of 1,470 samples, researchers said.

Two widely used antibiotics and two TB treatments, purportedly made in India, are more likely not to have enough of their key active ingredient when sold in Africa, compared with the same pills sold in countries such as Russia and China, according to a paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research.

The findings suggest Indian drugmakers may be sending low-quality drugs to poorer countries, the authors wrote.

The FDA has banned at least 36 manufacturing plants in India from sending product to the U.S.

Nevada: Oaths for Airmen Airmen taking their enlistment or officer appointment oaths can omit the words “so help me God” if they choose, Air Force officials said Wednesday. The policy change comes after an atheist airman at Creech Air Force Base struck out the words on his Department of Defense re-enlistment paperwork and ran afoul of a policy that prohibits omissions. The case went up to the Department of Defense General Counsel, which issued an opinion saying the language could be left out if the airman preferred. All of the other military services have allowed the alternate language for years.

Colorado: Pueblo reunion Crew members from the USS Pueblo are holding a reunion more than 46 years after the spy ship was seized by North Korea. More than 20 former crewmen attended the unveiling of a painting of their ship at a city auditorium in Pueblo, the town that gave the vessel its name.

The reunion runs through Saturday.

North Korean patrol boats attacked and captured the ship on Jan. 23, 1968, when it was cruising unescorted off the North Korean coast. One sailor was killed and 82 others were captured.

New York: ‘Easy Rider’ sale

confront the threat posed” by the Islamic State group, showing bipartisan support for a “critical component” of his strategy against the extremists.

Only a day earlier, Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, drew widespread attention when he told Congress he might recommend the use of U.S. ground combat forces if Obama’s current strategy fails to stop the militants.

Across the political aisle from the president and Pelosi, Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, and House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy of California swung behind the plan.

Yet many other Republicans expressed concerns that it would be insufficient to defeat militants who have overrun parts of Syria and Iraq and beheaded two American journalists.

In all, 85 Democrats and 71 Republicans voted to deny Obama the authority he sought. The measure passed on the strength of 159 votes from Republicans and 114 from Democrats.

GOP lawmakers took solace in the short-term nature of the legislation. It grants Obama authority only until Dec. 11, giving Congress plenty of time to return to the issue in a postelection session set to begin in mid-November.

While the military provision was given a separate vote in the House — to tack it onto the spending bill — it seemed unlikely there would be a yes-or-no vote in the Senate on Obama’s new military strategy to train rebel forces in Saudi Arabia to be used in conjunction with potential U.S. airstrikes.

Instead, the Senate is likely to vote only once on the legislation that combines approval for arming and training rebels with the no-shutdown federal spending provisions.

Officials put a $500 million price tag on Obama’s request to train and equip rebels. The cost generated virtually no discussion among lawmakers, who focused instead on the possible consequences of a new military mission not long after America ended participation in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Testifying before a Senate Committee, Secretary of State John Kerry said the forces seeking to create an Islamic state “ must be defeated. Period. End of story.”

There was little, if any dissent on that, but debate aplenty about the best way to accomplish it.

Sweeteners may promote diabetes Associated Press

ACROSS THE U.S.

in Israel was released Wednesday by the journal Nature.

The work suggests the sweeteners change the composition of normal, beneficial bacteria in the gut. That appears to hamper how well the body handles sugar in the diet, which in turn can result in higher blood sugar levels. This impairment, called glucose intolerance, can eventually lead to diabetes.

Some experts who didn’t participate in the work urged caution in interpreting the results.

James Hill, an obesity expert at the University of Colorado, called the work good science.

Still, overall, “I do not think there is enough data yet to lead to a definitive conclusion

about artificial sweeteners and the body’s handling of sugar,” he said.

“I certainly do not think there is sufficient evidence to conclude that they are harmful.”

But Yanina Pepino of Washington University in St. Louis said the results make a convincing case that sweeteners hamper the body’s handling of sugar by altering gut bacteria.

And it adds to her belief that sweeteners and sugar should be used in moderation, especially by children, she said.

“It’s really providing strong data suggesting we need to do more research,” she said.

Researchers began by testing three widely used sweeteners: saccharin, sold for example as

Sweet ‘N Low; sucralose, sold as Splenda, and aspartame, sold for example as NutraSweet, in 20 mice. Some animals got one of those substances in their water, and others got sugar water or just water. After 11 weeks, researchers gave all the mice a dose of sugar and monitored the response in their blood sugar levels.

The mice that initially got sugar showed about the same response as those that got plain water. But mice that got any of the sweeteners showed markedly higher blood sugar levels, indicating impairment in handling of the sugar dose. Further mouse experiments linked that outcome to an effect on gut bacteria.

The customized Captain America chopper Peter Fonda rode in “Easy Rider” has come to symbolize the counterculture of the 1960s. Now it’s for sale.

The auction house Profiles in History said it estimates the Harley-Davidson will bring $1 million to $1.2 million at its Oct. 18 sale being held online and at its galleries in Calabasas, California.

The gleaming stars-and-stripes panhead chopper with chromed hardtail frame is accompanied by three letters of authenticity.

AROUND THE WORLD Australia: Terrorism raids Counterterrorism raids in Sydney on Thursday were sparked by security intelligence that the Islamic State movement was planning a public killing as a demonstration of its reach, the prime minister said Thursday. Police detained 15 people Thursday in a major counterterrorism operation, saying intelligence indicated a random, violent attack was being planned on Australian soil.

Canada: Ford cancer rare Toronto’s embattled mayor has a rare and difficult cancer that will require aggressive chemotherapy, his doctor said Wednesday, days after Rob Ford’s dramatic announcement that he was pulling out of a re-election campaign.

A colorectal surgeon at Mount Sinai hospital said Ford has a malignant liposarcoma. Ford has been hospitalized for a week with a tumor in his abdomen.

The doctor said the cancer is spreading.

He said the mayor will be treated with intensive chemotherapeutic agents within the next two days.

S. Korea: Border swimmer An American was arrested after being caught trying to swim across a river from South Korea into North Korea, officials in Seoul said Wednesday. South Korean marines found the man lying on the banks of the Han River, which runs through Seoul but forms the border with North Korea along its western stretch, just before midnight Tuesday, the Defense Ministry said. The man was being questioned by intelligence officials Wednesday, the ministry said. “I was trying to go to North Korea in order to meet with supreme leader Kim Jongun,” the man told interrogators.

Expect strong holiday hiring Chicago Tribune Holiday hiring this year could reach pre-recession levels, according to a report released Wednesday.

Demand for seasonal workers could reach levels not seen since before the recession, thanks to increased consumer spending and job growth across industries, according to the report by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a global consultancy.

The report said seasonal hiring in the retail sector should “significantly outpace” 2013, possibly reaching 800,000 this year.

UPS is expected to lead the

charge with plans to double its workforce to 95,000 workers in the last three months of 2014.

Although UPS employees aren’t technically considered workers in the retail sector, the company’s hiring plans suggest a strong demand for the upcoming holiday season, and retailers are expected to follow, the report said.

Holiday hiring has steadily ticked up since 2008, when the sputtering economy led to a 55 percent decline in seasonal retail payrolls. That year was the worst on record, as only 324,900 holiday workers were hired. Last year 786,200 workers were added to

the retail payrolls during the holiday season.

“The last two years saw holiday hiring return to pre-recession levels. This year, we could see hiring return to levels not seen since the height of the dot-com boom,” said John Challenger, chief executive officer of Challenger, Gray & Christmas.

Challenger expects holiday spending to benefit from the increase in payrolls, which is averaging 215,000 new workers per month so far this year. “That translates into more people with jobs, which means more holiday spending money,” he said.

But he cautioned that while the indicators look good, holiday hiring is not guaranteed.

“As more people do their holiday shopping over the Internet, the need for extra workers on the sales floors at the malls and in department stores may decline,” Challenger said.

But the shift to online shopping doesn’t necessarily mean fewer jobs, because many seasonal employees work in other parts of the holiday shopping economy: in shipping and warehousing, or in restaurants and movie theaters, which also see business pick up during the last three months of the year.

Bezos, Boeing team up The NASA contract to ferry astronauts to the space station will pay $4.2 billion to Boeing.

Blue Origin engineers test a new BE-3 rocket engine in Van Horn, Texas, in November.

Administration Tuesday said Boeing and SpaceX would split $6.8 billion in federal funding to build the first U.S. manned craft since NASA retired the shuttle fleet in 2011. In 2017, the Boeing-SpaceX craft would replace NASA’s sole use of Russia’s Soyuz rockets to get people to the station, an arrangement that costs about $70 million a seat.

United Launch Alliance uses in some of its flights Atlas V rockets, which rely on the RD-180 engine.

U.S. dependence on a Russianmade engine has prompted criticism in Congress since Russia annexed Ukraine’s Crimea region earlier this year.

The U.S. and the European Union have imposed economic sanctions on Russia in an attempt to get President Vladimir Putin to back down. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin hinted in May that his country

would cut off the supply of the engines to the U.S. in retaliation for the diplomatic tensions.

In April he suggested via Twitter that the U.S. consider sending crews to space “with a trampoline.”

The NASA contract to ferry astronauts to the International Space Station will pay a maximum of $4.2 billion to Boeing and $2.6 billion to closely held SpaceX. Boeing and SpaceX may each conduct as many as six missions as part of the Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract, NASA said.

NASA said Tuesday it will continue to work with Blue Origin and another spaceflight company, Sierra Nevada, as they refine spacecraft designs.

Boeing was a crucial partner in NASA’s Apollo and shuttle programs, and the United Launch Alliance has an exclusive contract

BLUE ORIGIN

to carry U.S. military payloads.

Last month, the Air Force issued a “request for information” from industry on potential options to replace the RD-180 engine.

For now, Russian and American astronauts continue to train together for Soyuz missions amid strained ties between the two countries.

U.S. astronauts are slated to blast off for the space station in Russian launch vehicles on Sept. 25 and Nov. 23, according to a schedule posted on NASA’s website.

Bezos, who is also the new owner of The Washington Post, is No. 21 on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, a ranking of the world’s wealthiest people, with an estimated net worth of $30 billion. Musk, 43, is ranked at No. 93 with a net worth of about $12.3 billion.

Americans are starting fewer businesses, new companies are going out of business more quickly, and the new firms that do get off the ground are creating fewer jobs. None of that bodes very well for an economy still trying to find its footing.

State jobless rate holds steady at 5.6 percent Washington state’s unemployment rate remained steady at 5.6 percent last month, but the state saw an overall loss of 1,500 jobs from the previous month, state officials said Wednesday. The newest numbers released by the state’s Employment Security Department show that August’s jobless rate did not change from July’s numbers. However, unlike previous months when the state had continued to add jobs month to month, numbers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showed that seasonally adjusted, nonfarm employment dropped by 1,500 from July to August. While the private sector added 200 jobs in August, government lost an estimated 1,700 jobs over the month.

Low gas prices likely in the fall Motorists have something to look forward to this fall: the lowest gas prices in four years.

That’s according to a prediction from GasBuddy.com, the price-tracking website. Company analysts said the nation’s average gas price should tumble to a range of $3.15 to $3.25 for a gallon of regular. That would make for the cheapest autumn gas since 2010.

Motorists in more than 30 states are likely to enjoy prices below $3 at the pump, at least temporarily, GasBuddy said this week. Nationally, the average price for a gallon of regular reached $3.37 Wednesday, the lowest since February.

Bloomberg News WASHINGTON — The spaceflight company backed by billionaire Jeff Bezos will team up with a Boeing-Lockheed Martin venture to develop a U.S alternative to Russian- made rocket engines.

The partnership between United Launch Alliance and Bezos’s Blue Origin has set a fouryear development schedule, with full testing to begin in 2016 and a first flight in 2019, according to a statement today from the companies. The Boeing-Lockheed venture currently handles all U.S. military satellite launches.

The announcement pits Bezos, 50, against fellow billionaire Elon Musk, the Tesla Motors founder who is developing a rocket and capsule through his Space Exploration Technologies Corp. business. The competition has been brewing for years and has intensified as availability of the Russian-made RD-180 engines commonly used in U.S. space launches is being threatened by diplomatic tensions over Russia’s conflict with Ukraine.

“It’s time for a 21st Century booster engine,” Bezos, the founder of retailer Amazon.com Inc., said Wednesday in Washington. The engine will be 100 percent built and tested in the United States, he said.

Blue Origin’s BE-4 engine has been under development for three years, and is high-performing while being low-cost, Bezos said.

The average estimate of analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 13 cents per share.

Prosecutors appeal tax fraud sentence Federal prosecutors seeking to put the billionaire creator of Beanie Babies in prison for hiding millions in Swiss bank accounts told appellate judges Wednesday that the toymaker’s sentence of probation threatens to erode the judicial system’s ability to deter tax evaders. The hearing before the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago delved into whether H. Ty Warner got off too easy given the lengths he went to conceal his crime, or whether the judge was right to essentially deem the misdeeds to be out of character for someone with a substantial record of charitable giving. While prosecutors rarely appeal sentences, they contend that the trial judge sent the message that there are different standards of justice for the rich and the poor.

The stock market got the reassurance it wanted from the Federal Reserve Wednesday. The U.S. central bank signaled that it would keep its short-term interest rate near zero for a while yet, and investors pushed the Dow to a record high. Low rates have been a boon to the market by helping stimulate the economy and making stocks more attractive compared with bonds. “The Fed is not going to take the punch bowl away,” said Brad McMillan, chief investment officer for Commonwealth Financial. “They didn’t want to spook the market.”

moves lawmakers could take to spur new business formation and help existing start-ups grow their enterprises more quickly.

“It is not an exaggeration to report that our nation’s immigration policies enrage” entrepreneurs, Dearie said. Citing conversations with start-up founders in a dozen cities during a recent roundtable tour across the country, he added that the “most serious obstacle to additional hiring by new businesses is a pronounced shortage of qualified talent.”

Tennyson may have been right when he said “In the Spring a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.” However in the Fall our fancy (somewhat less lightly) turns to thoughts of education.

You are invited to …

Improving the educational system in the United States would help, he said, but the effects would not likely be felt quickly enough. Plus, half of U.S. graduate students in science and math fields — an area in which the skills gap has been shown to be widest between what employers need and what job candidates possess — now come from other countries, so many who may want to stay and work here would still be forced to return home after graduation.

Help rein in student debt Ortmans noted there are reasons to believe that new business formation rates could soon bounce back, including that fact that in the coming decades more Americans than ever will be between the age of 30 and 50 — historically, the prime ages to launch a company.

However, many of them are entering their peak entrepreneurship age with a mountain of student debt.

their way into — but not yet through — Congress.

If lawmakers eventually take steps to tackle or at least reduce the nation’s cumulative student debt, Ortmans said “it would boost entrepreneurship by reducing the financial constraints on younger entrepreneurs.”

Reduce regulatory burdens Several speakers argued that regulations can provide a useful framework to promote business and commerce. But many said the federal government’s maze of outdated and often contradictory regulations has instead become enormously detrimental to many entrepreneurs.

“The stifling effect of regulatory burden, complexity, and uncertainty is particularly acute for new businesses,” Dearie said, adding that they “lack the resources and scale of larger firms over which to absorb and amortize the costs of compliance.”

Ortmans noted that “as new regulations are enacted on top of existing rules, businesses are faced with the challenge of navigating an increasingly complex regulatory regime.” More specifically, he urged Congress to take a look at what he described as superfluous and often expensive licensing requirements that deter some would-be entrepreneurs from starting businesses.

Increase access to capital “While securing financing has always been a major challenge for entrepreneurs, our roundtables made clear that circumstances have become significantly more difficult in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis,” Dearie said. He explained that the personal savings of many prospective entrepreneurs were diminished during the financial crisis — and the same likely goes for friends and

family they may have turned to for early-stage investments.

Meanwhile, and in large part because of the same reasons, investments by individual angel investors suffered and has yet to fully recover in the wake of the recession.

Dearie advised lawmakers to consider authorizing changes to the Small Business Administration’s lending programs and investment funds. In addition, he voiced support for a tax credit for those who invest in new firms equaling 25 percent of the investment and relieving from federal income tax any gains on stakes in startups that were held for at least three years.

Create a start-up tax status John Deskins, an economics professor and director of the Bureau of Business & Economic Research at West Virginia University, pushed back against a commonly held noting that tax rates are a relatively harmless policy issue for start-up founders.

“A lower average tax rate for self-employment income relative to that of wage and salary income has been shown to encourage transitions to self-employment,” Deskins said. He added that tax credits for research and development — the sort that have come and gone from the federal tax code over the years — have also been shown to encourage more early-stage investments by start-ups.

However, it’s not merely lower taxes, but also simpler taxes, that would help spur entrepreneurship, Dearie said.

Congress, Dearie said, should consider a new tax status for entrepreneurs — what he called an “e-corp” — which would subject new firms to a low, flat income tax for their first five years.

IN OUR VIEW | Appointments to office

Without benefit of ballot box A representative democracy requires a couple of key ingredients: A. Candidates who are willing to run for office. B. Citizens who are willing to cast votes.

We’re learning the hard way that competition within Group A affects participation among Group B. In last year’s general election, the Snohomish County voter turnout was 41.5 percent, which was below the state average of 45.3 percent and the fifth lowest among all of Washington’s 39 counties.

Why do we seem to be falling out of love with democracy?

The unfortunate case of Rep. Mike Hope and the maneuverings over his replacement offer a clue. But the episode is not

wholly unusual.

For starters, political appointments to posts that are supposed to be elected offices have become rampant.

Such key positions as state senator, state representative, county executive, county sheriff, port commissioner, Everett city council member and Everett school board member have largely gone to individuals who never asked voters to select them for these jobs. No, these positions were handed out by current officeholders, often after some not-so-public horse trading.

Reasons for these vacancies were varied. At least one Everett council member and one school board member simply bailed on the terms they’d

pledged to serve. The county executive slithered away from scandals. The school board chairman quit for unspecified personal reasons. Sometimes there was a domino effect.

Incumbents were elevated via appointment to higher offices, and their jobs were then filled by appointments.

Once they attain their jobs without benefit of the ballot box, many appointees willingly campaign in the next election — with the substantial advantage of incumbency.

Republican Hope left his 44th District position this year after admitting to political bigamy — he’d not only set up residence in another state but actually registered to vote there. It fell to the

overwhelmingly Democratic county council to pick his replacement from a list of three Republicans.

Did the council act decisively to ensure the 44th District was represented? Did the council discuss the merits of the nominees openly so their choice would be subject to public scrutiny? No and no.

As with almost all of these appointments, politically tinged discussions behind closed doors were followed by a pro forma public vote. In the end, the council punted the decision to the governor, ensuring that no elected official from Snohomish County will be accountable for the decision.

Now, that’s democracy in action.

have different beliefs as lesser humans to be disposed of with disdain, all of which is justified as promoting Islam.

The power of the radicals lies in their ruthlessness but this is also their undoing. Arab society isn’t as single-minded as the radicals think their coreligionists should be. Radicals are trying to force a stark choice that Arab society has been avoiding for years. East or West.

Radicals meanwhile see their society being slowly corroded by the West. They call it “Jewitization.” They need to force this choice now, they think, before their sons’ minds are ruined.

We can’t stop the likes of ISIL by killing some of their leaders even though it is well deserved.

We will “win” when moderates are seen as the path forward because radicals are revealed to be animals. If we restrain ourselves, if we do about what we are now doing, in time truth will cause ISIL to lose their base of support.

What we need is that thing the West has the least of, patience.

In practical terms, we need to allow the Kurds their independence, no matter what the Turks think, so that they can defend themselves properly. We also have to accept that Sunni won’t die to save Shi’ite and vice versa. As in Palestine, the cure may be to let them all try to run a country. That usually cures them of a lot.

The column “Have we lost the ability to be alone with our thoughts?” by James McCusker was very interesting to me. Mr. McCusker talks about a scientific study by psychologists from the University of Virginia and Harvard in which students were left alone with their thoughts while sitting in a chair in a bare room for 6 to 15 minutes. No stimulation of any kind was allowed. Results: Most didn’t want to be alone with their thoughts and sone preferred an electronic shock to thinking.

My thought is that this conclusion rings true for the general population, including you and me. This not wanting to be alone with out thoughts, is, of course, a boon to the outside stimulus industry with which we are all very familiar.

McCusker goes on to question the implications of constant outside stimulus on the thinking of our students and how educators can both utilize and compete with this. Good thoughts!

I think this study also has implications for our spiritual health. Perhaps we should try an alone time, starting with 6 minutes and expanding, if possible... During our alone time, maybe we could think about how we are living our lives, the good we are doing and improvements we can make.

Perhaps we could think of the many things we are thankful for? Are we healthy, do we have family and friends who love us? Etc. Perhaps we could pray for help in living good lives and for the needs of our families and friends, our politicians (it could help!), our world, even, maybe especially, our enemies. Perhaps we could make plans to do good with our lives.

I think there’s no need to fear being alone with our thoughts.

Instead, there’s real fear in not making the time to do so.

Recently I took a small load of refuse, two plastic totes and one leaf bag, all fitting in the back seat of a Mini Cooper, to the Arlington transfer station. I dumped my few items, and was directed out another route to a booth where I encountered a not so kind county employee who reprimanded me for not having my vehicle weighed before I entered. I was then charged a minimum fee of $20.

The entry had no sign to indicate a minimum fee or that I must weigh. There was a direct route to the dump area bypassing the booth. We pay some of the highest property taxes in the U.S., let alone gas tax. Come on, people, is it any wonder that our roadsides are littered with everything from bottles to mattresses? Go look outside the transfer stations where debris is dumped at night. You can see it on a daily basis.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■9/11 EVENT

Patriot Ride sadly reduced My wife and I were deeply disappointed with this year’s 9/11 Patriot Ride out of Sound Harley on Sept. 14. Previously, it has been one of the best organized and heartfelt experiences you could share on your motorcycle. It ran through busy towns such as Lake Stevens and Snohomish with lots of fire department and local law enforcement officer participation. People in cars would pull over to honk and wave, while others would come out of their houses to cheer as the parade rolled past. The last couple years the route has gotten shorter with less coordination, but nevertheless featured one solid parade of bikes.

This year, at the last second, we learned that instead of one giant parade of 200 or so riders, there was going to be small groups of 20 or so bikes sent off at different times, each with a ride captain. Having zero fire department or police participation, instead of running through populated townships as one large parade, split groups followed the most rural of country roads, where nobody could even appreciate the significance of the event.

I realize the logistics for the Patriot Ride must be a nightmare, but the magnitude of the occasion deserves so much more. Sadly, it has gone from one of the most epic rides of the year, to something I can do any weekend with my friends.

This ride to honor the victims and first responders of the 9/11 event simply must return to its previous glory before we participate again.

■■ISIL

Practice patience and moderation The mass-killings and beheadings by ISIL and like organizations are having the effect in the Arab world of showing people that they have to make a choice. They may prefer to shield themselves from the excesses of the West. They may wish fervently to barricade their sons and daughters from pornography and low morals. They may be horrified at the thought of wives with the power to take their sons or to divorce them. They cannot accept the thought of Jews being in control of the place from which they think Mohammed went to heaven, Jerusalem. But the other choice inevitably becomes one of a return to the year 700, and treating people who

■■I-594

Yes, it’s about registration Regarding the letter, “It is not de facto gun registration”: I am not sure what fantasy world the writer is living in; he wrote about I-594. I am not going to recite a bunch of facts I found on the Internet.

If I-594 isn’t about gun registration, I don’t know what is. I will only ask one question: If I owned guns how would the government know what guns I own? If I don’t register them they would never know.

So if you don’t register your guns, passing I-594 can never be enforced.

U.S. boots already on the ground

W

ASHINGTON — Here’s a nationalsecurity riddle: How can President Obama provide limited military support on the ground to help “degrade and ultimately destroy” the Islamic State without formally violating his pledge not to send U.S. combat troops? The answer may lie in the legal alchemy known as “Title 50.”

Title 50 of the U.S. Code regulates the activities of the Central Intelligence Agency.

An often-cited passage is section 413b, which deals with presidential approval and reporting of “covert actions.” In essence, this statute gives the president authority, with a proper “finding,” to send U.S. special forces on paramilitary operations, under command of the CIA. The best-known example was the 2011 raid on Abbottabad, Pakistan, that killed Osama bin Laden.

Talking with U.S. and foreign military experts over the past week, I’ve heard two consistent themes: First, the campaign against the Islamic State will require closein American training and assistance for ground forces, in addition to U.S. air power; and, second, the best way to provide this assistance may DAVID IGNATIUS be under the command of the Ground Branch of the CIA’s Special Activities Division, which traditionally oversees such paramilitary operations.

There are some obvious drawbacks with this approach: These “special activities” may be called covert, but their provenance will be obvious, especially to the enemy; they will build irregular forces in Iraq and Syria that may subvert those countries’ return to a stable, transparent system of governance and military operations; and history tells us (from Vietnam to Central America to the Middle East) that black operations, outside normal military channels, can get ugly — opening a back door to torture, rendition and assassination.

Though these paramilitary operations are rarely discussed, the U.S. has extensive experience with them, especially in Iraq and other areas of the Middle East. The 2001 campaign to topple the Taliban in Afghanistan was led by the CIA, using teams of special operations forces to mobilize fighters from the Northern Alliance. In 2002, before the invasion of Iraq, Kurdish special forces were brought to a base in the Western U.S. and trained in insurgency tactics. They conducted fierce attacks as the war was beginning.

To undermine the Islamic State, the U.S. and its allies must mobilize Sunni tribal fighters. The CIA and the U.S. military have considerable experience here, painfully learned from their efforts to combat the Sunni insurgency that arose after the 2003 Iraq invasion. The agency mobilized Sunni commandos known as the UTPs; the initials stood for “Under the Table Program.” The head of Iraqi intelligence, Gen. Mohammed Shahwani, also recruited an irregular Sunni force, which came to be known as the “Shahwani Brigades.” These Sunni commandos fought with the U.S. Marines in the battle of Fallujah in late 2004.

The Islamic State’s commanders know that these Sunni fighters pose a potent threat. Before moving into northern Iraq last spring to prepare their breakout offensive in Mosul, they assassinated former Republican Guard officers who had worked with the U.S. But that only deepened many Sunnis’ secret hatred of the jihadists.

Gen. John Allen, the retired Marine general tapped as Obama’s special envoy in combating the Islamic State, brings several advantages. He coordinated contacts with Sunni tribal leaders in Anbar during the Sunni Awakening, which crushed the insurgency there. He was also one of the most effective U.S. commanders in Afghanistan. In recent weeks, he has been contacted by Iraqi and Syrian Sunni leaders who want U.S. help.

Iraqis and Syrians tell me that U.S. special forces will be decisive in training the Sunni fighters who can carry the battle into the streets of Mosul, Fallujah and Raqqah.

Obama must decide whether this mission is better performed overtly or covertly — but the Americans who will be doing the training will be the same warriors, drawn from such units as the Army’s 5th Special Forces Group.

The decisive issue is whether these U.S. special forces should be embedded with the Iraqi and Syrian forces they train — and accompany them into battle, where they can coordinate tactics and call in air support.

Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the joints chiefs of staff, said in congressional testimony Tuesday that “where I believe our advisors should accompany Iraqi troops on attacks against specific [Islamic State] targets, I will recommend that to the president.”

Let’s be honest: U.S. boots are already on the ground, and more are coming. The question is whether Obama will decide to say so publicly, or remain in his preferred role as covert commander in chief.

Hiatus for tribal canoe journey

MEEGAN M. REID / KITSAP SUN

Salmon and steelhead biologist Clayton David prepares to release a chinook salmon back into the water that was caught in the Union River fish trap near Belfair on Tuesday. The trap provides precise information about the fish swimming up the river.

Returning fish to the Tahuya Once-extinct run of salmon now on its own

Seattle: 4.0 quake rattles Puget Sound

By Christopher Dunagan

A 4.0-magnitude earthquake rattled the Puget Sound early Wednesday. The earthquake was centered near the town of Seabeck in Kitsap County, about 40 miles west of Seattle. The shaking was felt as far away as Everett, Olympia and downtown Seattle. The U.S. Geological Survey said the earthquake began shaking around 3 a.m. and had a depth of 11 miles.

The Kitsap County emergency dispatch did not receive any reports of damage or injuries.

The Kitsap Sun

BELFAIR — Since 2004, biologists and volunteers have been working to restore an extinct population of summer chum salmon on the Tahuya River, which drains into southern Hood Canal southwest of Belfair.

Now it’s time to find out whether Hood Canal summer chum can survive on their own in the Tahuya, said Clayton David, salmon and steelhead biologist for the Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group.

This will be the last year that summer chum from the Union River will be spawned artificially and released into the Tahuya, David said. “Hopefully, they will do their thing and keep on producing.”

Even before Hood Canal summer chum were declared a threatened species in 1999, work had begun for restoring populations in several rivers where populations were barely hanging on. Remaining wild fish were caught and spawned. Their eggs were hatched in small portable incubators, and the young fish were grown under protected conditions until release.

In the Union River, adults returning to the stream were boosted from about 100 fish in 1999 to a remarkable 12,000 fish in 2004, David said. After the supplementation program was ended, natural spawning was responsible for all the production. Now, in most years, nearly 2,000 fish return to the Union.

David said he hopes for a similar response on the Tahuya River, where annual returns have ranged from 200 to more than 1,000 summer chum.

“In general, the Tahuya has far

better habitat than the Union,” David said. “The habitat is there for them, and this program seems to be working.”

A central aspect of the hatchery program has been a fish trap on the Union River along North Shore Road just west of Belfair.

The trap, operated in large part by volunteers, provides precise information about the fish swimming up the river.

Since Aug. 15, the trap has captured 560 fish. It will remain in the river until mid-October.

David said the fish trap will continue to be used each year, both for the data it provides and for the education it brings to community members as well as visitors.

“People stop by to ask what is going on,” he said. “It’s a great way to learn about salmon.

People are always welcome. It’s a big community event, and we couldn’t do this program without volunteer help.”

Since the Tahuya River has never had a fish trap, biologists walk the stream to count salmon carcasses and apply a mathematical formula to estimate total returns. That monitoring will continue for several more years, David said, and volunteers sometimes go along to assist biologists with their surveys.

Hood Canal summer chum are a distinct stock, separate from the fall chum that show up weeks later. Typically, summer chum average 10 pounds with an occasional male coming in at 15 pounds, David said. Fall chum in the river normally range from 15 to 20 pounds.

In 1989, before summer chum were placed on the Endangered Species List, seven of the eight subpopulations in Hood Canal were considered at high risk of extinction, with one at moderate risk. Now seven of the groups are considered at low risk of

extinction, with only one — Lilliwaup Creek on the west side of Hood Canal — remaining in critical condition.

Researchers believe that a primary reason for the original decline of summer chum was overharvesting by commercial fishers in their quest to catch large numbers of coho salmon. One of the first steps in the recovery program was to delay the fishing season for coho until most of the summer chum were safely back home in their streams.

Summer chum are still considered extinct in the Dewatto River, which drains into Hood Canal south of Holly. Biologists have long considered a hatchery program to restore a summer chum population to the Dewatto. Before that can happen, they must resolve genetic issues — including what stock to use — and develop a new hatchery management program.

Pair winging their way to 49 state capitals

By Ryan Pfeil Mail Tribune

MEDFORD, Ore. — If Medford resident Field Morey and friend Conrad Teitell’s ambitious trip that kicked off Tuesday was a movie, the tagline would basically write itself: “Two men. Two weeks. 49 state capitals.”

No exaggeration. Morey, 75, and Teitell, 81, of Greenwich, Connecticut, will spend a sizable portion of the next two weeks in the clouds aboard a 4-passenger 2013 Cessna Corvalis TTx — bright emerald in color and bearing the apt moniker of “Green Hornet.”

They have landings planned at all the state capitals in the lower 48 and Alaska. That’s a 12,000mile Superman impression, give or take, with visits to 57 airports along the way.

The purpose of the Capital Air Tour “road trip” is two-fold: promote general aviation and the importance of smaller satellite airports.

PORT ANGELES — The annual tribal canoe journey that celebrates the Pacific Northwest’s Native American culture is expected to take a one-year hiatus in 2015 after no host stepped up.

Lower Elwha Klallam tribe chairwoman Frances Charles said no tribe volunteered to host next year. The journey culminates at a different location each year in a weeklong celebration.

The Peninsula Daily News reported Wednesday the journey will resume in July 2016 for the “Paddle to Nisqually.”

Coordinating Vickie Carroll said host tribes feed and provide places for as many as 10,000 people for the final week of welcoming ceremonies, potlatches and games, which can take years for tribes to save for and plan.

Carroll said the cost of being a host may have deterred some tribes.

People say, ‘How many flight hours do you have?’ and I say, ‘I’ve been off the Earth for four years of my life, you do the math.’

— Field Morey, Medford, Oregon, pilot

“When most people think of flying by air, they think of the big jets and the long lines and security to get on board,” said Morey, an FAA-certified flight instructor.

“We just hop on our little Green Hornet, and away we go.”

Morey said the local airports in Ashland and Grants Pass are considered satellite airports, or smaller operations that ease the congestion at the larger hubs while serving as a possible gateway for tourism. Many are under threat of closing due to rising property taxes and unfavorable public sentiment.

“General aviation airports are a very valuable asset to the

community, and we’re here to promote them,” he said.

The planned route could include some diversions, depending on the weather, as September is right in the midst of hurricane season.

Teitell, a former student of Morey’s, came up with the idea for the journey. The friends met in 1995 when Teitell taught law at the University of Wisconsin.

They flew from Madison on a cross-country jaunt during Teitell’s training for his instrument rating test. He said Morey is an excellent hands-on instructor who was eager to join him on the state capitals trip.

“I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be nice to land at the airports of 49 states?’ ” Teitell said. “I mentioned it to Field, and he said, ‘Let’s do it. It’s wonderful. Apart from saving these small airports, we hope we can interest people in flying. It’s the most wonderful thing in the world to be able to control an airplane. You get to wear a leather jacket, and you get to say ‘niner’ instead of ‘nine.’

“People say, ‘How many flight hours do you have?’ and I say, ‘I’ve been off the Earth for four years of my life, you do the math,’ ” Morey said.

The trip started with stops at smaller airports in Salem, Oregon; Olympia and Juneau, Alaska. The men will return to Medford on Sept. 29, after a final stop in Sacramento.

A complete list of their stops and real-time progress can be viewed online at www.ifrwest. com/cat. Their trek can also be followed on Twitter, at www.twitter.com/ CapitalAirTour.

The state Executive Ethics Board has found “reasonable cause” that a supporter of Republican U.S. House candidate Dan Newhouse committed two ethics violations this summer. The campaign volunteer, Washington State Potato Commission director Chris Voigt, is the Grant County chairman of Newhouse’s campaign.

The Yakima Herald-Republic reported that Voigt is accused of using his work email and commission-issued vehicle to deliver Newhouse campaign signs to supporters. The investigation began in July after an anonymous person reported the allegations to the Ethics Board.

Voigt has 30 days to respond.

Newhouse is running against fellow Republican Clint Didier in the November election to represent central Washington in Congress.

Oregon: If this Jack Russell could talk A Jack Russell terrier that went missing from its Pennsylvania home has turned up at an animal shelter nearly 3,000 miles away.

Deborah Wood of the Bonnie Hays Animal Shelter said a good Samaritan found the 7-year-old dog named Gidget this month in Tualatin, Oregon. A microchip implanted in Gidget revealed that the owner lived in a town near Philadelphia. The owner told a shelter employee that her dog has been missing since April 22.

Wood said Gidget was thin, but otherwise in good condition. It’s a mystery how the dog ended up in Oregon.

Tacoma: Bid for new trial denied A federal judge in Tacoma has ruled that convicted rapist Kevin Coe, of Spokane, is not entitled to a new trial. The decision means that Coe — who was dubbed the South Hill Rapist in the 1980s — will remain confined at the state’s Special Commitment Center on McNeil Island. Coe was convicted of rape in 1985 in Spokane County. He was due to be released in 2006 when the state Attorney General’s Office stepped in and obtained a jury verdict labeling Coe a sexually violent predator and a danger to the community.

He has been confined since.

Alaska seeks to intervene in timber lawsuits Associated Press KETCHIKAN, Alaska — The state of Alaska has filed motions to intervene in three lawsuits filed by environmental groups against a proposed timber sale by the U.S. Forest Service on Prince of Wales Island.

Gov. Sean Parnell’s office on Monday announced the state’s request to the U.S. District Court in the three cases, including one that challenges the 2008

Tongass Land Management plan that allows the Big Thorne timber sale to move forward. The state wants to join as a party defendant or a friend of the court, the Ketchikan Daily Mirror reported.

“Any delay to the Big Thorne project not only prevents the timber industry from contributing to a diverse and robust economy, but also reduces vital funding for schools and roads in our rural areas,”

Parnell said in a prepared statement.

The lawsuits were filed after the Forest Service in August moved to allow the sale to proceed. The Big Thorne project would provide nearly 155 million board feet from about 8,500 acres In the Tongass National Forest.

The state received more than $221 million in Tongass timber payments between 1970 and 2014, according to one of the

state’s motions to intervene.

Earthjustice filed two lawsuits in federal court soon after the decision by Tongass National Forest Supervisor Forrest Cole to move forward.

The Big Thorne sale is targeted specifically in one of the lawsuits filed by Earthjustice on behalf of the Southeast Alaska Conservation Council and other environmental groups. The second Earthjustice lawsuit alleges

the 2008 management plan fails to maintain oldgrowth trees as habitat for wolves and deer.

The third lawsuit was filed soon after by Greenpeace and other groups and presents similar challenges to the timber sale and management plan.

In a response to the state’s effort to participate in the lawsuits, the Southeast Alaska Conservation Council said the governor supports the status quo

that sees 50 percent of oldgrowth timber from the Tongass shipped overseas.

“Unlike Sean Parnell, Southeast Alaska Conservation Council is working to keep timber dollars local by supporting small sawmills, and pressuring the Forest Service to design sales that will benefit local millers without harming Southeast’s real economic drivers: fishing and tourism,” the group said in a statement.

Miley Cyrus date for MTV show Most Alaskans to barely makes court appearance get nearly $1,900 in oil money

By Steven DuBois Associated Press

DALLAS, Ore.— The young homeless man who accompanied Miley Cyrus to the MTV Video Music Awards arrived 45 minutes late for his arraignment Tuesday on a charge that he violated his probation in Oregon.

Polk County Judge Monte Campbell was ready to wrap up his court hearings for the day, and likely issue an arrest warrant for Jesse Helt, when Helt’s lawyer announced his client had arrived at the courthouse.

Helt, 22, didn’t enter a plea, and he’s due back in court next month. He declined to speak with a reporter after the hearing.

Helt gained worldwide attention last month when Cyrus let him accept her award for video of the year, to help raise awareness for homelessness. It was later learned that Helt was wanted in Oregon for a probation violation stemming from a 2010 arrest.

NATALIE BEHRING / STATESMAN-JOURNAL

Jesse Helt appears in the Polk County courthouse Tuesday for an arraignment regarding a probation violation in Dallas, Oregon. Helt, the young homeless man who accompanied Miley Cyrus to the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards, arrived 45 minutes late for his arraignment on a charge that he violated his probation in Oregon. Helt didn’t enter a plea and he’s due back in court next month.

help cover her son’s legal costs.

When Campbell initially called for Helt, attorney Ron Hoevet said his client was homeless and having trouble arranging transportation to the courthouse.

Hoevet left the courtroom and called Helt.

A special feature coming

Wednesday, Oct. 15

“You’d better get here,” Hoevet said on the phone, warning Helt that he’d be arrested if he didn’t show.

After listening to his client’s end of the conversation, Hoevet said: “You’ve messed up again, Jesse.”

He informed Helt that the judge agreed to move the case to the end of the day, so he still had time to make it.

“If you get here, it’s going to be OK.” Twenty minutes later, Helt phoned Hoevet, who boomed: “Where are you, Jesse?” as he left the courtroom to talk.

Finally, when all the other cases were done, the judge returned to the Helt case for a .... third time.

Hoevet announced he received a text message that his client was at the courthouse.

The hearing lasted only about a minute.

What’s Hot. What’s New. Save Time. See Everything!

Campbell reminded Helt that court started 45 minutes earlier and told him to “bring a toothbrush” if he’s one second late for his Oct. 7 hearing. Helt said he understood.

Court records show Helt pleaded guilty to misdemeanor criminal mischief and criminal trespass several years ago after breaking into the apartment of a man he believed to be selling bad marijuana. He was sentenced to 30 days in jail and probation.

The arrest warrant was issued in November 2011 after authorities say he violated probation.

Helt moved to Los Angeles, enduring stints of homelessness while trying to find work as a model. He met Cyrus through the Hollywood homeless center My Friend’s Place.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — It’s a highly anticipated day of the year in Alaska, when residents learn how much money they’ll receive from the state’s oil wealth savings account — a payout people receive just for living in The Last Frontier.

This year’s share of nearly $1,900 is the sweetest since the Great Recession and the thirdrichest ever.

Gov. Sean Parnell announced the amount of the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend with great fanfare Wednesday. “This is all good news for Alaskans,” he said at an Anchorage press conference.

The payout to be distributed Oct. 2 is more than double the amount of last year’s $900 checks but short of the record payout of $2,069 in 2008.

Who qualifies?

The dividends are distributed annually to men, women and children who sign up for it after living in the state for at least one calendar year, or were born in Alaska by the Dec. 31 deadline of the previous year. This year, nearly 599,000 Alaskans will receive checks, either through direct deposit or in the mail. Of those, the oldest recipient is 109 years old and the youngest includes 26 children who were born Dec. 31. Altogether, the checks total $1.1 billion.

The payout formula The amount of each person’s check is based on a five-year average of the fund’s investment earnings, which have included the recession years. Alaska wasn’t hit as hard by the recession as the Lower 48, but the Permanent Fund Corp. has a diversified portfolio that was clobbered when markets plunged worldwide. The fund has since recovered, according to officials. The fund had a balance of $29.9 billion in 2009, compared to $51.2 billion five years later.

Some dividend payouts go toward fun stuff like vacations and big-screen

Retail sales Businesses often rush to take advantage of the cash infusion, offering Private Fund Dividend deals. For example, the Girl Scouts of Alaska announced a 10 percent discount on all non-uniform apparel in a “PFD Super-Saver” sale being held through Friday at an Anchorage Girl Scouts store. Alaska Airlines announced more than 90 destinations available through a PFD sale running between Sept. 24 and Oct. 29. “How does travel to faraway warm sapphire seas sound? How about exciting cities you’ve always wanted to see?” the airline says on its website.

“This is the flight sale that’s made just for Alaskans.”

Giving it to charity Some Alaskans choose to give part of their dividend to charitable causes through the “Pick. Click.

Give.” program. This year, 26,850 recipients pledged $2.8 million to 511 nonprofit organizations.

How did it all begin?

The Permanent Fund was established in 1976 after the discovery of oil on Alaska’s North Slope. The state began distributing fund money to residents in 1982. If an Alaskan has qualified for all of the checks distributed since the beginning, they would have collected $37,027.41.

With the upcoming distribution, the state will have distributed more than $21.9 billion over the years.

Don’t forget the IRS Alas, it’s not all free money. Alaska has no state income tax, but residents must pay federal taxes on the bounty.

EDH588695 Snohomish County Public Notice and Opportunity to Comment On Proposed Substantial Amendments to the Snohomish County Housing and Community Development 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan and 2014 Annual Action Plan Snohomish County (County), as lead agency of the Snohomish County Urban County Consortium (Consortium), seeks public review and comment on two substantial amendments to the Consortium’s 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan and 2014 Annual Action Plan on the proposed use of an additional $1.5 million in funding that recently became available under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program.

The 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan establishes five-year goals to guide the use of annual grant funds received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) under the CDBG and other federal grant programs. The 2014 Annual Action Plan describes specific activities that have been awarded grant funds in the 2014 program year to help meet the five-year goals.

The grant funds may be used to support affordable housing and community development projects that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income households and may also be used to address urgent community development needs that arise in the community, such as those related to natural disasters.

A substantial amendment is sometimes needed after a Consolidated Plan or Annual Action Plan is adopted. On such occasions, the County publishes notice of the proposed substantial amendment and provides the public up to 30 days to comment. For these two amendments, HUD has approved a waiver to reduce the public comment period to three days. This notice serves this requirement for the two proposed substantial amendments summarized below.

Proposed New Consolidated Plan Priority, Strategy, and Objective for Urgent Needs Activities funded with CDBG funds must be consistent with the 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan. Urgent community development needs have developed within the past six months related to the SR 530 Flooding and Mudslide Incident which occurred on March 22, 2014. Snohomish County was recently notified by HUD that it was making a supplemental allocation of CDBG funds available to help address ongoing recovery efforts related to the Incident. In order for the proposed use of these funds to be consistent with the 2010-2014 Consolidated Plan, this proposed amendment would add a new priority, strategy, and objective to assist with urgent community development recovery needs for the area impacted by the Incident including assisting with the acquisition of real property in the impacted area to reduce an immediate threat to the health and welfare of the community and create an open space with longterm management to be conducted by Snohomish County.

Proposed Allocation of $1.5 Million in CDBG Funds for SR 530 Flooding and Mudslide Incident Recovery Efforts Snohomish County was recently notified by HUD that it is making a supplemental allocation of $1.5 million in CDBG funds available to help address ongoing recovery efforts related to the SR 530 Flooding and Mudslide Incident. This proposed amendment to the 2014 Annual Action Plan would award $1.5 million in CDBG funds to Snohomish County to address urgent community development needs resulting from the Incident to assist with acquisition of real property destroyed or severely damaged in the impacted area to reduce an immediate threat the to the health and welfare of the community and create an open space with long-term management to be conducted by Snohomish County. The funds would be used to provide a portion of the requisite match for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funds through the Federal Emergency Management Agency for the project. The proposed use of funds is consistent with public input received during the response and recovery process.

Public Review and Comment: All interested persons are encouraged to review and comment on the proposed substantial amendments. • A copy of the proposed amendments may also be viewed at the following locations: * on-line at http://www.snohomishcountywa.gov/931/ Plan-Amendments, * Everett Main Public Library branch and Snohomish County branches of the Sno-Isle Regional Library System, * Local city and town halls in Snohomish County, * Snohomish County Human Services Department, Office

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Keep life simple and free from worry and emotional turmoil.

Work diligently to keep the peace and to find workable solutions. Getting along will be half the battle, and once you master compromise, you will find it much easier to focus on what’s really important to you.

Your numbers are 2, 6, 14, 21, 32, 37, 46.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Do things with lightning speed and you’ll grab the attention of someone who can help you advance. Have patience with those unable to keep up with you. Your ability to get things done lead to a position of leadership. �� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Do as much as you can. You will win if you complete projects that can make your life more comfortable or user-friendly. Set your sites high and do your thing. ���� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don’t let uncertainty get you down. Focus on whatever needs to be done and implement detail and precision into your game plan. Clear up unfinished business and adapt to any changes that come your way. ��� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Get moving if you want to keep up with the crowd. An emotional situation will lead to isolation if you ignore the obvious. Listen to complaints and use past experience to avoid misfortune. ��� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t spend money on something you don’t need. Cut your overhead in order to secure your financial future. Being overly generous will not buy friendship or help you eliminate stress. ���

ROY ROBINSON

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Try something new and you will meet someone interesting. A greater interest in helping your community must not turn into a money pit.

Offer your time, not your cash, and you will expand your friendships without depleting your bank account. ���� LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Don’t get down; get busy. Set reachable goals instead of striving for the impossible. Stay on track and avoid an emotional situation with someone you work or live with. �� SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Travel for business or pleasure and you will encounter a moment with potential to turn into a prosperous venture. Unfamiliar surroundings will spark an idea that will lead you down a path to personal freedom. ����� SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Don’t settle for less than what you want. Look for a suitable way to reconfigure the way you do things at home or at work in order to get better results. ��� CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A battle of intelligence isn’t likely to bring you the same satisfaction. You are best to keep your emotions out of the equation and base your actions on need and desire. ��� AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can make good positive alterations to the way you earn your living and how you pursue your goals that will help to ease your stress and build your strength. ��� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A partnership will play in your favor. Sign contracts, iron out any little detail that may stand between you and success, and push to get what you want signed, sealed and delivered. �����

County Hall of Fame honors 10, one team

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

EVERETT — Snohomish County’s distinguished sports history was celebrated on Wednesday night with the induction of 10 individuals and one team into the county’s Sports Hall of Fame.

The event was a dinner banquet in the Edward D. Hansen Conference Center at Xfinity Arena. The inductees included six athletes, two coaches, two sports contributors and

one team.

One of the inductees, former University of Washington and NFL football player Jeff Pahukoa, said the honor “is really not about what I’ve done. It’s more about what the people in my life have done for me. The people that have been around me and the things they’ve done for me throughout my career.

“That’s really what the Hall of Fame is about to me,” said Pahukoa, who grew up in Marysville and lives today in Lake Stevens.

“It’s about honoring the people that took the time out of their lives to either take care of me or coach me along the way.”

Another Marysville native, top amateur and professional boxer Bret Summers, said the induction “is just such an honor.

It’s surreal.”

And for some it was an honor decades in the making. Members of the undefeated 1952 Everett High School football team, undoubtedly one of the best teams ever from this

area, had to wait 62 years to be enshrined among the county’s elite.

“Where did 60 years go?” asked Dan Michel, the quarterback on that team and the banquet spokesman. “I tell you, it really flew by fast.”

The sports contributors were Bob and Margaret Bavasi, the husband and wife who brought minor league baseball to Everett in 1984. The year before, in an offhand remark, See HALL, Page C4

David Hutt has had several talented players in his tenure as Jackson High School’s tennis coach. He’s the first to say it takes more than one star to continue a streak that has seen the Timberwolves win 86 consecutive conference matches — a streak that’s in its sixth season.

Of course, it doesn’t hurt to have a player as dominant as Ben Mietzner.

Seahawks, Broncos not dwelling on past

By John Boyle Herald Writer

RENTON — Ask Seattle Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright about studying film of his team’s Super Bowl win over the Denver Broncos, and his eyes light up.

“We actually watched some clips today,” Wright says with a grin as he remembers Seattle’s 43-8 victory. “Just the way we out-hit ’em, man. Every time they touched the ball, the check downs, we were

smacking them left and right.”

In Denver, Broncos players are studying the same film this week in preparation for Sunday’s game at CenturyLink Field, but reliving that game obviously elicits a slightly different response for the Broncos.

“It’s not an easy film to watch, but you try to watch it, try to learn from it and try to find a way to be better from it,” quarterback Peyton Manning said on a conference call.

It has been seven months since that lopsided Super Bowl, and both teams come into this game with slightly reshaped rosters and an eye on what lies ahead, not what happened in New Jersey last February. Nonetheless, it’s impossible for the Seahawks and Broncos to play this year, and particularly this early in the season, without Super Bowl XLVIII being a topic of discussion this week.

Mariners collapse in seventh, lose 5-0

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ANAHEIM, Calif. — That sure got away quickly Wednesday night from the Seattle Mariners, didn’t it? A defensive misplay, a bomb and that quickly, a briskly tense and scoreless game turned into a 5-0 loss to the Los Angeles Angels.

The news from out-oftown wasn’t good, either.

For six-plus innings, this was a marvelous pitchers’ duel between Angels

yielding Howie Kendrick’s one-out single through the right side in the seventh inning.

Then disaster struck.

David Freese hit a sinking liner into the right-center gap that caught right fielder Chris Denorfia in no-man’s land. Denorfia pulled up late and tried to play the ball on a hop.

And the ball skipped past him.

ark Spada says all systems are go for the big Everett Coho Derby on Saturday and Sunday, billed as the largest fishing tournament on the west coast (see the accompanying Pick of the Week for nuts and bolts). More than 2,000 anglers participated last year, and the 2014 running should be at least as popular.

Spada, the event coordinator, said “The stars have all aligned perfectly for this weekend’s Derby. The fishing reports have been great, ticket sales are brisk, and while we may get a little rain, the forecast for the weekend looks good.”

The fleet weighed in about 850 coho last year, including adults and kids, which was pretty good considering the lousy weather conditions on the second day of the event. The 2012 catch was outstanding, at about 1,260 coho.

The first-place winner last year was Don Pittwood, with a 15.5pound coho taken on Possession Bar. The second-place fish weighed 14.2 pounds and was caught by Hut Phanhthaavilay on a Dick Nite spoon, just below the Hwy 522 bridge on the upper Snohomish River.

Recent reports have been positive, with coho showing fairly well at several locations.

One of the best was the area off the oil docks near Edmonds, where charter skipper Nick Kester limited his party and headed home before 11 a.m. The shipwreck and the area in front of Edmonds also produced well for participants in the Edmonds Coho Derby on Sept. 6.

Gary Krein, owner/skipper of All Star Charters in Everett said most silvers recently have been smallish, three to six pounds on

the average and with very few larger fish showing.

For derby days, Krein said the triangle formed by Edmonds, the shipwreck and Possession Bar will probably put out the majority of the tournament entries, with Brown’s Bay and the shoreline between Edmonds and Seattle offering other opportunities. As to tackle, Krein said fishermen can’t go wrong trolling a Gibbs or Hot Spot flasher, followed by 28 to 32 inches of leader and a light green or white glow squid.

Start early in the morning at 40 or 50 feet, going down to 60 or even 90 feet later in the day, Krein suggests.

Steelheading dead?

If you’re a steelhead or salmon angler and you have time to read only one printed article about your sport this year, I urge you to make it the cover piece of the September issue of The Reel News. Writer Terry Sheely does a superb job of investigating a recent closed-door agreement between state Fish and Wildlife Director Phil Anderson and Kurt Beardslee, executive director of the anti-hatchery Wild Fish Conservancy, which, Sheely says, will effectively kill sport steelheading for winter fish in a big chunk of the state.

Most of the information in the article comes from an August meeting of the state Senate Natural Resources Committee chaired by Senator Kirk Pearson. The senator is an outspoken critic of the anti-hatchery move-

on Friday evening at Bayside Marine in Everett (1111 Craftsman Way), just south of the Port of Everett ramp. The seminar is free and starts at 7 p.m.

The derby is presented by the Everett Salmon Association, and supported by the Snohomish Sportsmen’s Club and the Everett Salmon and Steelhead Club.

Proceeds benefit programs for kids, disabled veterans and local high schools.

— Wayne Kruse ment, Sheely says, and of Anderson’s refusal to defend sport fishermen.

“The goal of this hearing was to take direct input from the WDFW about why the decision was made to settle (with the Conservancy) and begin to address the serious concerns brought about by this settlement,” Pearson is quoted as saying. “The controversial decision by fish and wildlife to strike a deal under threat of lawsuit has created frustration and concern for anglers, tribes and our state’s economy as a whole.”

Sheely says the clandestine Anderson/Beardslee deal kills critical winter steelhead hatchery stocking programs on the east side of Puget Sound, ends winter steelheading for most of a decade, wasted $1 million invested in rearing smolts that were not released in rivers, forfeits up to $20 million in local economic benefits of the fishery, and (can you believe this?) cost WDFW $43,000 to pay WFC for legal costs incurred in threatening to sue the agency.

Sheely says Ron Garner, president of Puget Sound Anglers, agreed with Senator Pearson, arguing that PSA believes strongly that hatcheries are a necessity to continue sport and tribal fishing, and that hatchery released smolts have not been scientifically shown to be the main cause of native steelhead decline.

Tulalip fish and wildlife director Ray Fryberg is quoted in the article as calling the Wild Fish Conservancy’s hatchery lawsuit “a giant step backwards.”

Sheely says that in the tribe’s opinion, a better approach might have been for WDFW to go to court, where a judge would likely have ordered the parties to talk before launching legal attacks.

But Jamie Glasgow, a WFC spokesman, is quoted as saying, under pointed questioning from Senator Pearson, that the only hatcheries his group supports are hatcheries

Buoy 10 The salmon fishery at the mouth of the Columbia has been excellent recently, with weekend checks by Washington creel samplers averaging 6.27 coho and 0.44 chinook per boat.

Samish Bay Kevin John at Holiday Sports in Burlington said the Samish Bay fishery for big kings off the mouth of the Samish River started slowly but has really picked up over the past couple of weeks. Anglers working the north side of the bay in the Chuckanut Channel have been scoring with white darts, while those off Fish Point on Samish Island are using a two- or three-ounce Laser Minnow or four-inch Zak Attack.

This year has been much better than the last couple of years, John said, not just in quantity of fish but also in size. In past years, he said, the majority of biters would be in the eight- to 15-pound range, with a big fish going 20 pounds. This year’s size class is bigger, with an average of 15 to 18 pounds and a number in the 25- to 30-pound range.

“For those who haven’t hit Samish Bay, you’re missing out on a great experience,” John said. “There’s nothing like a 20-pound chinook, in 12 feet of water, going absolutely ballistic.

Sherman: Chargers’ comments ‘hilarious’

By John Boyle Herald Writer

RENTON — The normally outspoken Richard Sherman was unusually quiet following Sunday’s loss in San Diego — though he refutes the notion that he was not available to the media — but three days later, the Seahawks’ loquacious cornerback had plenty to say, in particular about the postgame comments made

by Chargers receiver Keenan Allen.

Allen told reporters after the game that Sherman is “not what he’s hyped to be” and “not really a shutdown corner.”

Sherman, as you might expect, had a response for Allen.

“I thought that was pretty hilarious,” Sherman said. “You know, when a guy wants to get his name in the paper, he has to say something crazy.”

And yes, there is a bit of irony in Sherman is accusing someone else of saying something crazy to get attention. Players like Allen probably wouldn’t take shots at Sherman if Sherman didn’t so often talk about himself and engage in debates with

Richard Sherman

Keenan Allen

other cornerbacks about who is better, but whether he brings this on himself or not, Sherman still found humor in comments made by Allen and Malcom Floyd, who said “Keenan was lighting up Sherman.”

“It’s humorous, it’s fun to me,” Sherman said. “It’s really funny, especially when you’ve got little guys like the Chargers guys talking about they exposed something, and had 60 and 50 yards. (Antonio) Gates, Hall of Famer, he had a fantastic game, and Philip (Rivers) had a great game, and the rest of the guys were there. But you see stuff like that and it just makes you laugh.”

Sherman was then asked if he got the impression that certain Chargers receivers might have cared more about catching passes on Sherman than

winning the game, and agreed that might be the case.

“Yeah, that’s what it looked like,” Sherman said. “There’s probably somebody who will tell his kids, ‘You remember that one game? I caught a few passes on Richard Sherman. Didn’t score, but caught a few.’”

Asked to assess his performance in Sunday’s loss, Sherman said, “I felt like I played pretty good. Obviously there were a few plays here and there, but for the most it was a good game.”

As for the notion that he wasn’t available to the media after the game — at least two reporters wrote that he declined interview requests after the game — Sherman said that wasn’t the case.

“I thought that was pretty ridiculous,” Sherman said.

“When I got done taking a shower, Earl (Thomas) was being interviewed, I stood there for a while, nobody came to me, and I put my stuff on and walked out, signed a few autographs.

“I was literally standing in my locker, Earl was being interviewed. When you come off the field after a 120 degree game, and the locker room was about 90,

you’re probably not going to stand there for an extra hour to wait for everybody to get done interviews.

I’m tired and hot, I’m trying to get cool. I sat there though, I was available ... I didn’t sneak off. I was standing there, they just happened to be interviewing other people. Nobody called for me and said, ‘Hey, Sherm.’”

Injury report Several new names popped up on the first injury report of the week, but seeing as Pete Carroll said after Sunday’s game, then again Monday that there were no significant injuries, just bumps and bruises, it’s likely many of the players listed will be back at practice later this week other than Tharold Simon, who is recovering from knee surgery.

Tight end Zach Miller (ankle), running back Marshawn Lynch (back), safety Kam Chancellor (ankle), linebacker Mike Morgan (hip) and Simon all sat out practice, while linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis and running back Christine Michael, both of whom missed the first two games with hamstring injuries, were limited. Tight end Cooper Helfet was a full participant.

Carroll said Michael and PierreLouis would practice at full speed, but in limited reps, and both will likely be available for Sunday’s game.

Vikings change course, bar Peterson from team activities Associated Press EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Minnesota Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson was declared out, back in, then out again as he faces a felony child-abuse charge in Texas.

This time, he could be gone for the season.

“We made a mistake,” Vikings owner Zygi Wilf said, “and we needed to get this right.”

Vikings executives emerged Wednesday from a late-night deliberation to voice regret of their initial decision to let

Peterson play this week after sitting him for a game once he was charged with injuring his 4-yearold son by spanking him with a wooden switch. Now Peterson is back on paid leave through a special roster exemption granted by the NFL. “We will support Adrian during this legal and personal process, but we firmly believe this is the right decision,” said Wilf, the team’s co-owner with younger brother Mark Wilf.

During a 17-minute news conference at Vikings headquarters, the word “right” was used

a total of 34 times by the Wilfs, vice president Kevin Warren and general manager Rick Spielman. They expressed concern about child welfare, recognized their role as public figures and reminded the audience of the community service work done regularly by players.

Hardy off active roster CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Carolina Panthers removed Greg Hardy from the team’s active roster until the Pro Bowl defensive end’s domestic violence case is resolved.

Carolina general manager Dave Gettleman said Hardy will continue

to be paid and is allowed to be at the team facility, but will not practice.

Hardy earns more than $770,000 each week during the regular season.

Hardy was convicted July 15 of assault on a female and communicating threats. Hardy is appealing the ruling and a jury trial is set for Nov. 17.

Cardinals RB Dwyer arrested PHOENIX — Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer was arrested Wednesday on aggravated assault charges in connection with two altercations at his home in July involving a woman and their 18-month-old child.

The Cardinals immediately announced they deactivated Dwyer from all team activities.

Conner Ghirardo Senior | Arlington Ghirardo spent the past couple seasons learning from former Arlington No. 1 singles player Trent Sarver. Now that Ghirardo’s senior year has come around – and Sarver has graduated – he is ready to be the new No. 1 for Arlington.

“He’s probably mentally, the toughest player I’ve ever had,” Arlington head coach Sean Cunningham said. “… He doesn’t doubt himself.

He’s learning to be the No. 1.”

Like Sarver, Ghirardo was a first-team allleague selection last season. He has spent four years on the Eagles’ varsity squad. The senior captain, who is also an ASB officer and involved with music, has “taken the younger players under his reigns,” Cunningham said.

The Arlington coach also praises Ghriardo’s style, which is just as much mental as physical.

“He’s all finesse. He’s totally cerebral,” Cunningham said. “He’s a really bright kid. He’s very strategic in how he plays the game. He figures out what his opponent’s got, what he has to do to survive against his opponent and then what he has to do to beat his opponent.”

Jimmy Hua Junior | Kamiak There was an aspect of Hua’s game last season that Kamiak head coach Vic Alinen encouraged the Knights’ No. 1 singles player to improve.

So the junior spent all summer playing in tennis clubs and tournaments working on it.

“It’s a thrill for any tennis coach to have a guy who loves the game and expends great effort in the offseason working on his game,” Alinen said. “This year that was volleying, which was his major obstacle to improve on from last year. He has just been excellent at volleys and putting balls away, where last year that was his Achilles heel. It’s totally improved his game.”

Alinen says Hua still has a few minor things to work on, but believes Hua – a first-team allWesco 4A South selection last season – will be difficult for his opponents to beat.

To Watch In Boys Tennis

“He is definitely one of my best that’s ever played for me and I’ve had some great ones,” Alinen said. “He is one of the most consistent players with groundstrokes. He doesn’t error himself out of matches. He stays in games and just gets one more ball back (across the net) than the other guy.”

Ulises Aceves Junior | Everett Many local players spend the offseason improving their game at tennis clubs but Aceves may have put in more effort than most.

Aceves, a first-team all-Wesco 3A North selection last season, could routinely be seen honing his skills on his home tennis court all summer long as he prepares for his junior season.

“He’s the kind of guy, all summer long, if you happen to drive by the Clark Park tennis courts (in Everett) there’s more than a 50 percent chance he’ll be hitting,” said Everett co-head coach Jim Conner. “He’s always working.”

Both Everett coaches, including co-head coach Tim Boyd, say Aceves’ strong work ethic translates into competition. The pair agree that Aceves is going to give it his all every time he picks up a racket.

“He’s the type of kid you can depend on to go out there and play tough every match, every point,” Boyd said. “No matter who the opponent is, he’s going to go out there and give you 110 percent every time. When he gets out there you know he’s going to give you everything he can to win.

“He’s a great kid and works hard, no question about it.”

Patrick Luangrath Senior | Glacier Peak The Glacier Peak tennis program hasn’t been around a long time, but it has produced more than a few strong players.

Tops among them, is Patrick Luangrath.

A first-team all-league selection a year ago, Luangrath once again will be leading the Grizzlies this season after spending the offseason improving his stamina.

“Patrick has put in a lot of hours in the weight room and on the courts this offseason to improve his endurance,” said Glacier Peak head coach Micah Perron. “…This year the kid doesn’t get tired.

“Combine that with his powerful baseline game, defense and a solid transition game,” Perron continued, “and Patrick is probably the best player to come through Glacier Peak.”

Perron is trying to enjoy his last season with Luangrath, a player he knows will be hard to replace.

“Patrick will be missed next year,” Perron said. “…He leads by example in the way he conducts himself at practice and at matches.

The entire team, JV and Varsity, really look up to Patrick as a leader and captain.”

Kincaid Norris Sophomore | Snohomish As a freshman, Norris hit the court and excelled immediately for the Panthers, being named to the All-Wesco 4A North first team.

“We knew he was coming when he was an eighth grader,” said Snohomish head coach Dick Jansen. “He’s just a kid that’s totally devoted to tennis. He has great feet and is learning to develop his pace.”

The Snohomish coach said having a strong player like Norris for the next three years will also help push the other Panthers to continue to improve.

“He’s like Robinson Cano on the Mariners,” Jansen said. “He makes everybody better. He makes his teammates better.”

While star freshman occur at a few schools in Wesco, Jansen said it’s a bit more rare at Snohomish.

But the coach is not complaining.

“We’re so happy to have him,” Jansen said.

“His work ethic pushes him to be better. He’s going to be big for us.”

Jackson

Timberwolves twice a year, said the Jackson senior is one of the best in the conference.

“Ben is a tough player. He’s kind of the paragon of Wesco tennis,” Jansen said. “He’s the

No. 1 kid. … In our little pond here, we have a few great players. Ben’s definitely one of them.”

It isn’t just his tennis savvy that makes Mietzner so valuable

to the Timberwolves. Hutt praised the Mietzner for his leadership and willingness to help his teammates.

“For me, as a coach, he’s a fun-loving kid,” Hutt said. “You can joke around with him. He has determination, which is huge. … He just does a great job.

He’s more than just a leader.

He’s a nice kid. He’s willing to help. He’ll hit with any kid in the program.

“If I ask him to go hit with a kid that can’t even hold a racket, he’ll go hit with him.”

That kind of teamwork has fueled the Timberwolves’ long winning streak, though Hutt noted it might be beneficial for Jackson to lose occasionally and end the “ridiculous winning streak.”

“At Jackson, we’ve won a lot,” Hutt said. “We’ve won so much that I don’t really talk about a whole lot of goals. To be honest, I told the kids we need to lose more because they would learn another character trait of how to hold composure in defeat.”

But Mietzner and his teammates don’t want the streak to end on their watch.

“We want to win, but we want to have fun and enjoy this year,” he said. “The main goal is just to keep having fun.

“I just want the team to have a really good year.”

far we came as a team and if we improved or not.”

While Manning sounds more than ready to put the Super Bowl behind him, he’s also OK with his teammates using it as motivation if that’s going to help them this week.

“Every player has different emotions and different ways to get ready for a game,” he said.

“That’s part of your job as a football player to get ready for a game, and whatever motivates you to get ready and play your best football, I think everybody is in favor of that.”

The Seahawks, like the Broncos, will try to avoid bulletin board material this week, but they are expecting to see a fired up opponent given the result of the previous meeting.

“As a competitor, when you lose, it’s always in the back of your mind that, ‘I lost to these guys, it’s time to get some (payback),’” safety Kam Chancellor said. “So I’m sure they’ll be fired up and ready to come in here and battle. I know they’re going to be ready.”

And as defensive end Cliff Avril notes, every team, not just the Broncos, will give the Seahawks their best shot this season because Seattle is the defending champ: “I would say

they’d be motivated regardless of what happened last season. Us winning the Super Bowl, everybody’s bringing their A-game regardless, so we expect that and we expect to be able to match it.”

Even Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, who is constantly preaching that every week is a championship week, understands how highly anticipated Sunday’s game is considering the teams involved.

“We have a terrific matchup this week coming up,” he said.

“I know a lot of people (are) interested in this one because of how last season ended … A lot of people want to see what’s going to happen, and so do I. I want to see how we play. So, we’ll get revved up and should be a great matchup.”

But great matchup or not, Super Bowl rematch or just another game, Carroll and his team will try to stick with their normal approach, which is what helped them win a title in the first place. Carroll knows that if his team is too focused on the hype surrounding the game, or if his players don’t put Sunday’s loss in San Diego behind them and let that affect their preparation this week, they won’t be at their best come

Sunday.

“Whether you win or whether you lose, I’ve said it a lot of times, it can factor either way,” Carroll said. “That’s why we go right back to our routine and we do the things that we do and we use the language and the expectations of this day and we just try to crush it on this day and have a hell of a day and we come back the next day and do it again. I think it’s a really good challenge in that regard and because of all of the stuff from before.”

And whatever happens Sunday, the Seahawks are certainly expecting a tough challenge from the Broncos, who fell behind on a safety on the game’s first play and never recovered.

“A lot of things went our way,” said linebacker Malcolm Smith, who earned Super Bowl MVP honors after returning an interception for a touchdown.

“Sometimes that happens, and we don’t expect it to happen again like that this week. We expect a tougher game from them. Obviously they’re going to be better than they were on that day, so we’re looking forward to it.”

Magarelli — Mietzner is their No. 1 singles player.

“We’ve definitely had a lot of success,” Mietzner said. “We’ve always had so many good players on our team. And lots of depth. It’s not an individual sport like people think it is. Having great players on the team helps us win matches.”

Hutt has a phrase to describe what makes Mietzner so difficult to beat.

“In tennis, they use a word: ‘Grinder.’ That term would fit him,” Hutt said. “He grinds out points. He’ll do whatever it takes to win. … He gets his serve in consistently and for our league, he’s just a pest for someone to beat.”

When asked to identify his strengths, Mietzner cited his focus and determination.

“I’m just able to keep the rally going and not make too many mistakes,” he said. “I just find their weakness and attack it. I just try to keep the rally going. I’m just able to not make as many mistakes as my opponent.”

Snohomish head coach Dick Jansen, whose Panthers have to face Mietzner and the

Seahawks From Page C1

The question then becomes this: does what happened last year have any effect on Sunday’s game? Depending on who you ask, this is a chance for revenge for the Broncos, or a chance for the Seahawks to prove they’re still the best, or just another regular season game. For some, it really will be just another week, while other players, particularly those in Denver, will use what happened in the Super Bowl for a little added motivation.

“Yeah, you don’t forget what happened and also, you set the standard by playing against the Super Bowl (champions),” Broncos defensive tackle Terrance Knighton told reporters in Denver. “They’ve earned the right to talk how they talk and we’ll just speak with our pads and show up on Sunday.

“Obviously, we still have a bad taste in our mouths from the Super Bowl, but it’s a new season and we want to get back to that point and obviously win it. But playing against the team that won the Super Bowl and actually having a chance at a rematch really will show how

Jackson High School senior Ben Mietzner “has determination, which is huge,” says his coach, David Hutt. Adds Snohomish High tennis coach Dick Jansen, whose team faces Jackson and Mietzner twice each season: “Ben is a tough player. He’s kind of the paragon of Wesco tennis. He’s the No. 1 kid. … In our little pond here, we have a few great players.

Ben’s definitely one of them.”

FSU’s Winston benched for comments

COMMENTARY

What we’ve learned so far this season

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Jameis Winston will be a spectator in the first half of Florida State’s showdown against Clemson Saturday after making “offensive and vulgar” comments about women — the latest embarrassment in a growing list of poor decisions off the field.

Florida State interim President Dr. Garnett S. Stokes and athletic director Stan Wilcox announced in a joint statement Wednesday that the quarterback also will undergo internal discipline, but did not provide details of the punishment.

Several students tweeted Winston stood on campus Tuesday and shouted a lascivious comment about female anatomy that may have derived from an internet meme.

The 20-year-old Winston addressed his inappropriate comments before Wednesday’s practice at his weekly press conference, saying: “I have to tone it down.”

The Heisman Trophy winner has made similar comments after previous incidents and Florida State seems to be growing less tolerant of his discretions.

While playing for the Florida State baseball team, he was suspended for three games and completed 20 hours of community service after acknowledging he stole $32 worth of crab legs from a local grocery store in April. Before the football season, he said he had matured, learned what it takes to be a leader and understood that he needed to be more careful in his personal life.

The school president and AD admonished him Wednesday for doing just the opposite.

“As the university’s most visible ambassadors, student-athletes at Florida State are expected to uphold at all times high standards of integrity and behavior that reflect well upon themselves, their families, coaches, teammates, the Department of Athletics and Florida State University,” their joint statement said.

“Student-athletes are expected to act in a way that reflects dignity and respect for others.”

Winston’s latest poor judgment comes when Florida State is under scrutiny.

The university is currently under investigation by the Department of Education for the way it handles reports of sexual assault, including a case involving Winston. The investigation was prompted by a complaint from a FSU student who says Winston assaulted her in 2012.

State Attorney Willie Meggs declined to press charges against Winston last fall.

A lawyer for the woman says the university is currently conducting its own investigation of that incident.

Winston has had other run-ins with police since enrolling at the university.

Police questioned Winston and other FSU players in November 2012 after 13 windows were broken at an apartment complex near Doak Campbell Stadium after an apparent BB gun battle. That same month, Winston and teammate Chris Casher were held at gunpoint by campus police for hunting squirrels. The two told police they were shooting squirrels with a pellet gun along a bike trail. Police were also called after a Burger King employee called to complain that Winston was stealing soda.

Winston was not arrested in any of those three incidents.

On Wednesday, the Heisman Trophy winner gave a statement in which apologized for the lewd comments.

“I just want to apologize to my university, my coaches and my teammates. I’m not a me person, but in that situation it was a selfish act,” Winston said. “That’s not how you do things. I really want to apologize to my teammates because I have now made a selfish act for them.”

Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher called Winston’s remarks about women “derogatory.”

“It’s not something we want or we’re indicative of and it’s not a good decision,” Fisher said. “It was something that has to be addressed.

Washington linebacker Shaq Thompson (7) returned an interception and a fumble for touchdowns in the Huskies’ victory over Illinois on Saturday.

Scoop and score

For the Huskies, there are ‘city’ and ‘country’ fumbles

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — There are “city fumbles,” Washington linebacker John Timu explains, and there are “country fumbles.”

A city fumble — ball on the ground, lots of dudes in the area trying to grab it — needs to be dived upon and covered immediately.

But the country fumbles — those that occur away from the obstructive tangle of arms and bodies — represent opportunity. And so Washington’s coaching staff encourages its defensive players to recognize that when a ball is on the ground with enough room to scoop it up and run with it, that they should, well, scoop it up and run with it.

That emphasis manifested during the Huskies’ game last week against Illinois, when defensive end Andrew Hudson stripped Illini quarterback Wes Lunt of the football, and Timu sealed off an Illinois player to allow junior linebacker Shaq Thompson to duck in, pluck the ball off the turf and sprint 52 yards unimpeded for a touchdown.

Thompson said as soon as he saw the ball on the ground — and saw Timu essentially set a

block for him before UW even had possession — he knew he was going to try to scoop it and keep moving.

“My whole mindset was a scoop and score, even if it was only like five or 10 yards,” Thompson said. “Just the fact that I scooped it and wasn’t going to fall on it.”

Timu said he thought about picking it up, too, but figured since Thompson was closer, he would let him grab the ball and instead do whatever he could to make sure Thompson didn’t get tackled.

“If there’s one thing, I’m a team player,” Timu said. “I feel like I had a chance (at the ball), but then, I felt like there was a guy who was probably an inch closer to me, so I sacrificed my body, and after that, whatever happens, happens.”

The stated goal of Washington’s defensive coaching staff is to “score or get the ball back” on every possession. Obviously, the former is preferable.

“We work on it in practice, and we emphasize it,” defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski said. “It just comes down to guys executing and making it happen.”

The Huskies scored two defensive touchdowns against Illinois. The other, also by

Thompson, came on a 36-yard interception return. UW’s offense has converted two of the other three turnovers forced by the defense into touchdowns so far this season, giving the Huskies an 80 percent (4-for-5) touchdown rate following takeaways.

Lindquist likely still backup UW coach Chris Petersen said Monday that there is a tight competition between Jeff Lindquist and Troy Williams for the Huskies’ backup quarterback position, but offensive coordinator Jonathan Smith said on Wednesday that Lindquist would likely still be the first player off the bench if something were to happen to starter Cyler Miles.

“But that doesn’t mean Troy’s very far behind at all,” Smith said.

Williams made his collegiate debut late in last week’s victory over Illinois, but did not attempt a pass. Lindquist started the Huskies’ opener at Hawaii, completing 10-of-26 passes for 162 yards and a touchdown. He took just one snap at quarterback last week — a trick play in which he handed off to receiver John Ross — though he is the team’s holder for field goals and point-after-touchdown attempts.

“I think we kind of go through the week and see where we are with those guys and on Friday determine where we go,” Petersen said.

“Depending on a situation in the game, (that) may determine that as well.”

Cougars treating Ducks like any other foe

By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

SPOKANE — No. 2 Oregon is as high profile as a team gets but Washington State linebacker Cyrus Coen says he sees the high-flying Ducks as just another “faceless opponent.”

“We’re going to do the same thing we do every day,” Coen said. “Work hard, that’s it.”

Hard work is what the Cougars can expect when they host Oregon and Heisman contender Marcus Mariota on Saturday night in Pullman.

The Ducks (3-0) have beaten their first three opponents by a combined score of 156-54, including a Michigan State team that came into its game with Oregon boasting a fearsome defense. Washington State, meanwhile, staggers into its Pac-12 opener at 1-2.

Still, the Cougars say they won’t treat this game any differently.

“It doesn’t matter who we play,” Washington State wide receiver Dom Williams said.

“We can play the Seahawks.

You just go out there and play.

It doesn’t matter who the

opponent is.”

But he acknowledged that players do get anxious before big games.

“I say a little prayer and think about my grandma,” Williams said. “It helps me calm down.”

Washington State is looking to improve on last year’s game at Oregon, where the Cougars lost 62-38.

The Cougars sacked Mariota three times in the first half.

Mariota also lost a fumble that defensive lineman Xavier Cooper picked up and returned for a touchdown.

“The way we came off the ball and attacked the offensive line, we were hungry to get to Marcus,” defensive tackle Kalafitoni Pole said. “That was the biggest thing, we were hungry to get there.”

“If we consistently do that this week we’ll have a good chance against him,” Pole said.

Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday threw an NCAA-record 89 passes against Oregon last time, for what was a school-record 557 passing yards. The Cougars broke that record last Saturday when Halliday and backup Luke Falk

combined to throw for 630 yards against Portland State, an FCS team.

Receiver Isiah Myers caught 11 passes for 227 yards and three touchdowns against Portland State. He leads the Pac-12 with 26 receptions and 423 yards receiving this season.

This week, Myers was added to the Biletnikoff Award watch list.

“He’s explosive,” coach Mike Leach said. “He hasn’t been streaky at all this year. He’s become a really reliable guy.”

Myers is also benefiting because defenses have been focusing on receiver Vince Mayle early on.

“I think having a good one on each side will open them both up,” Leach said. “It’s hard to tend to both of them.”

Notes Washington State ranks No. 15 nationally in total offense, and is averaging 557 yards per game ...

Halliday’s average of 471.7 yards of offense per game trails only Brandon Doughty of Western Kentucky ... WSU’s 706 yards of total offense against Portland State were a school record, breaking the previous mark of 693 set against Idaho in 1975 ...

The seven passing touchdowns last weekend tied a school record.

t’s mid-September and people are taking more summer vacation. What is this, France?

UCLA players this week take a well-deserved break even though classes haven’t started yet, while USC’s bye week makes two straight if you count last week’s effort against Boston College.

Six of the 10 teams in the Big 12 Conference will be couch potatoes Saturday, and eight teams in The Associated Press top 25 have slipped “do not disturb” signs on their doorknobs.

This might be a good time for us to reflect on what we’ve learned so far: Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston hasn’t learned a thing. He is what we thought he was: a bad guy, who happens to be a great quarterback, who can’t get to the NFL soon enough.

Winston swore at Atlantic Coast Conference media days in July he had “fixed everything” and better understood his role as a team leader.

Then, on Tuesday, he got up on a table in the student union and swore a vulgarity about women that was so profane it made truckers blush.

Winston was apparently repeating an Internet meme.

It was so inappropriate Florida State suspended him for the first half of Saturday’s important home game against Clemson.

Which raised the question: What kind of vulgarity gets you suspended for a second half?

Don’t fret, Seminoles fans, your team won at Clemson last year, 51-14.

James “Actors Studio” Lipton could probably quarterback Florida State for a half.

It’s been clear to most people outside the Florida State bubble that Winston may not ever get it. His behavior has been overlooked, duh, because he is a supremely talented athlete.

Winston led Florida State to a 14-0 record and the national title last year. He won the Heisman Trophy in spite of a sexual assault allegation that dogged him to the eve of the ACC title game against Duke.

Winston was cleared two days before kickoff, after Florida’s state prosecutor concluded there was not enough evidence to press charges.

The circumstances of the case still stink worse than crab legs left in the Tallahassee sun.

Winston won the Heisman, in part, because voters couldn’t find any other viable candidates. The suspension is a positive only if it dooms Winston’s chances winning a second trophy.

“So I think we can stop pretending that Jameis Winston has any chance to win another Heisman,” tweeted Chris Huston, who runs the “Heisman Pundit” website.

The early season hasn’t settled much of anything.

Lack of sample data hasn’t stopped the voting coaches from hailing UCLA as a top-10 team after three wins the Bruins just as easily could have lost. Or, for some USC fans to dump on firstyear coach Steve Sarkisian seven days after a signature win over Stanford: See, we told you it was a bad hire!

Pete Carroll might not have survived his first September had Twitter been invented in 2001.

He lost USC’s second game, at home, to Kansas State, the first of four straight defeats en route to a season-ending Las Vegas Bowl loss to Utah that left the Trojans at 6-6.

But wait, Carroll took over a program in turmoil. Yeah, like Sarkisian inherited the 1972 Trojans?

Getting a grip on reality in today’s world is tough, especially when it’s almost never required.

Kendrick scored all the way from first, and Freese ended up at second. The scoring was a single, an error, no RBI … but one enormous run.

Or so it seemed.

After Tony Campana replaced Freese as a pinchrunner, Paxton tried to get Erick Aybar to chase a few pitches before issuing an intentional walk. Paxton struck out Chris Iannetta before the Mariners went to the bullpen.

And that’s went the disaster turned epic.

C.J. Cron crushed a 1-1 fastball from reliever Danny Farquhar for a no-doubt homer to left-center field and that pitchers’ duel was suddenly a four-run spread.

Shown are noon positions of weather systems and precipitation. Temperature bands are highs for the day.

Robinson Cano started the seventh inning with an 11-pitch at-bat before taking a third strike. Wilson then walked Kendrys Morales, who was replaced by pinch-runner James Jones.

Wilson struck out Kyle Seager on three pitches and, after Jones stole second base, Denorfia walked. It was the first time either club had more than one runner on base.

It didn’t matter.

Smoak flied out to right.

Neither team had a runner until Cron grounded a oneout single through Smoak at first base in the Angels’ third inning.

Cron went to second on Cowgill’s soft roller to third, which Seager turned into an out at first, before Paxton ended the inning by striking out Calhoun.

The Mariners didn’t get their first runner until Cano got a four-pitch walk with two outs in the fourth. Wilson then retired Morales on a fly to right.

“Most likely, yes,” manager Lloyd McClendon confirmed. “He’s had a heck of a year.

He’s had a tremendous second half. It hasn’t gone unnoticed.”

Elias, 26, is 10-12 with a 3.85 ERA in 29 starts and has posted a 2.31 ERA in 10 starts, despite a 3-4 record, since the All-Star break.

Plans call for him to return Thursday to Seattle to undergo the exam. Club officials, at this point, are characterizing the injury as “flexor bundle tightness.”

Elias pushed his innings count to 1632⁄3 by pitching threeplus innings Tuesday before leaving because of elbow stiffness.

Nats’ Souza hits first HR Associated Press ATLANTA — The Washington Nationals Steven Souza Jr., who played at Cascade High School, hit his first major league home run in the Nationals’ 3-1 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday.

Souza was hitting just .067 with no homers and no RBI in 16 games before he crushed a 1-1 pitch from the Braves’ Alex Wood over the centerfield wall.

Cowgill on a borderline pitch before Kole Calhoun painted the right-field line with an RBI double for a 5-0 lead.

Dominic Leone replaced Farquhar and ended the inning by striking out Mike Trout — Trout’s fourth strikeout of the game, not that it particularly mattered.

The final damage showed Paxton (6-3) with a line showing three runs in 62⁄3 innings.

Wilson (13-9) was brilliant in limiting the Mariners to one hit in seven innings, a clean single by Justin Smoak in the fifth inning. Joe Smith and Huston Street closed out the victory.

The loss dropped the Mariners (81-70) to two games behind Kansas City in the chase for the American League’s final wild-card berth with 11 games remaining.

Oddly, perhaps, the Angels’ breakthrough came immediately after the Mariners mounted their only real threat of the game against Wilson.

Island Tour

T

here’s something about Whidbey Island.

The scenery. The food. The art. The people. The pies.

Here’s your chance to explore and partake at your own pace.

This weekend’s Whidbey Island Farm Tour is a twoday self-guided tour of the island from top to bottom.

Meet friendly alpacas, llamas and horses. Tour farms with cows, goats, sheep and hogs.

Visit a distillery and a winery.

Admire the art in galleries and inside a 1968 school bus.

There are more than a dozen stops on the map, with many sites hosting other farmers, food purveyors and entertainers.

As that old saying goes, there’s something for everybody.

Green­bank Farm in Greenbank has a wine shop, cheese shop and art galleries. The pie cafe has some of the best pies around.

Sherman’s Pioneer Farm in Coupeville has pumpkins, antique farm machinery and tractor-drive trolley rides. While you’re there, take five minutes to drive to the coast to take in spectacular waterfront views of the Olympic Peninsula.

A few miles from the Mukilteo-Clinton ferry is Shipki

Farm Organics, an Eastern European inspired mini-farm with apprentice farmers growing vegetables, herbs and fruits.

Farm owner Josette Hendrix calls it a way of “reconnecting to our ancestral roots of growing and eating good food as a central theme for any healthy culture, in both time and space on our planet.”

In the same neck of the Clinton woods is Fern Ridge Alpacas, where you can learn everything you always wanted to know about alpacas.

“We’ll let people interface with the animals,” farmer Hal Schlomann said. “We’ll also be doing demonstrations showing how to take fiber and turn it into something to wear. It’s like turning grass into sweaters.”

So, plot your course from the map at www.whidbeyfarmtour. com. Program your GPS device.

n past centuries, fireplace tools consisted of a poker and tongs to rearrange burning logs, a small shovel to remove ashes, perhaps a whisk broom to sweep up leftover fuel and ashes, and a bellows to encourage flames to burn brighter.

The fireplace was the main heating source for small houses before 1900, so a bellows to coax a flame from a dying fire was important. Early bellows probably were a bag made from the skin of a small animal and a piece of metal, usually brass, to direct the gust of air created by squeezing the bellows. Later examples had stiff wooden boards and leather sides. Nails rust, and leather and wood dry out, crack and have to be replaced, so most of the antique bellows found today are repaired or made in the 19th century. Many were handdecorated, and some even had wooden sides carved by cabinet makers. Many antique bellows have attractive folk art decorations and are wanted for the art, not for use with a fireplace.

Most new and many old bellows sell for under $100, but in April 2014, an unusual 1800s bellows with original leather painted to look like a man’s face had a bid of $2,700 at a Showtime auction.

Q: I inherited a framed painting that hung in my grandfather’s living room since at least the 1920s. It’s a painting of a gondola with a few passengers and a standing gondolier. But they’re not riding on a canal; instead, they’re floating down what appears to be an underground cave. The painting is signed “M. Gianni” in the lower left corner.

A: Here are a few things to do to learn more about your painting: First, make sure it really is a painting and not a print. If you can’t tell, take it to an expert in your area. Then check online artist databases. You can find some information online, but you can learn more if you go to your local library and ask someone there to help you search databases that the library subscribes to.

“M. Gianni” may be an Italian artist named Maria Gianni, who was born in the 19th century but worked into the 20th. She painted using watercolors and gouache. If See KOVEL, Page D3

LIVING SMART | Angie Hicks

When you should expect to pay for an estimate H

ow much should you expect to pay, if anything, for an estimate, inspection or other kind of contractor consultation? The answer depends on the nature of your project and the policies of the companies from which you solicit bids.

But a few rules of thumb apply: If you want to know how much it will cost to get something fixed, a free estimate is more likely. If you want a service provider to determine the

source of a problem, you’ll probably have to pay for the diagnosis. For instance, if you know you’re missing roof shingles and want an estimated replacement cost, you probably won’t have to pay for a bid. But if you have no idea what’s causing a leak, you’ll need a roof inspection, which can cost $200 or more, depending on where you live.

Free estimates are more typical for smaller, uncomplicated jobs, such as window-washing. Larger,

more elaborate projects — like a kitchen remodel — may require a consultation, which could carry a cost if more is involved than a remodeler talking to you by phone, visiting and then offering suggestions based on the visit. But if the consultation includes detailed design work, multiple plans and revisions, a contractor may ask you to pay for a full design, which can range from $150 to $1,000.

Because companies’ policies on estimates differ, be

CALENDAR

responsible for each aspect of the work n Start and completion dates n Payment terms n Cost of labor and materials n Cost for permits to be pulled n Proof of licensure, if necessary, as well as workers compensation, liability insurance and bonding When evaluating bids, go through them item by item.

Ask contractors any questions you have. When you make your final choice, be

sure to read through and adjust any aspects of the contract before signing.

Don’t neglect to promptly update the unsuccessful bidders. It’s a simple courtesy, especially considering the time some spend compiling detailed estimates. A short handwritten letter, brief email or a quick phone call should suffice.

Where’s the thingamajig? Which thingamajig?

Keeping the kitchen organized is key to keeping any chef sane.

Nicole Anzia Special To The Washington Post

Are you the proud owner of a corn zipper, avocado cuber or swivel peeler?

Not sure? You’re not alone.

It’s always so tempting to snatch up some new, shiny kitchen tool that promises to make your life easier, but keep in mind that if you buy it, you also have to store it.

Here’s some tips on how to keep it all organized:

Inventory and need Most people have drawers

you have an original painting, its value depends on its condition and size. Some Maria Gianni paintings have auctioned for prices in the low hundreds, but others have topped $1,000.

Q: I have a 6-foot-tall cardboard cutout of Elvis Presley wearing his black leather outfit. I’ve had it for 20 years. What is it worth?

A: Life-size cardboard cutouts of Elvis still are being made and sell for about $20-$30 today.

Q: I bought some green frosted pressed-glass dishes at an estate sale.

They are clear glass on the inside and frosted greenblue on the outside. The frosting looks green from the front and bluish from the back. The plates have “KIG Indonesia” in raised letters on the surface on the outer edge. Can you tell me anything about them?

full of kitchen tools but use only five or six repeatedly, while the others go mostly untouched. If you’re looking at what you’ll need to prepare a new recipe or thinking about buying a new gadget, first make sure you don’t already own one. And then, before you buy that new specialty gadget, ask yourself whether you really need it and whether you will use it more than once. If the answer is yes, then go for it.

If the answer is no, then walk away.

If you have ample drawer storage for cooking tools, consider organizing them by how often you use them

and by their purpose. Your favorite wooden spoon, spatula, ice cream scoop and vegetable peeler should be kept together in an easy-to-reach place near your major food preparation area. Everything you use for baking could be stored in one place, wine and bottle openers can be stored in another, and grill tools should have their designated spot. Anything you haven’t used in the past two years should be discarded if it’s rusty or unusable or donated if it’s still in decent shape.

Drawer dividers or utensil trays can work wonders for keeping gadgets in order and ensuring they’re

Are they safe to eat from?

A: Most frosted glass dishes are safe to use.

Frosted glass is made by acid-etching or sandblasting clear glass. Since the “inside” of your dishes are clear and are the surface the food touches, you can be sure they are OK. “KIG” stands for Kedaung Industrial Group, which was founded in Jakarta, Indonesia, by Agus Nursalim in 1969. The company started out making glass and tableware for Indonesia but was soon exporting goods throughout the world.

Eventually the Kedaung Industrial Group included more than 30 companies that made glassware, enamel cookware, ceramic housewares, stainlesssteel flatware, glass blocks, ceramic tiles and other products. It claimed to be one of the world’s largest manufacturers of glass, and had retail stores in several cities. The company also made reproduction early-American glass. In the United States, products

were sold at Walmart and other stores.

Q: We have an oak hanging map cabinet that’s 51 inches wide by 21 inches high. It holds seven large pull-down canvas maps printed by W. & A.K. Johnston of Edinburgh, Scotland. They include maps of Asia, Africa, Europe, North and South America, the United States and a couple of the two hemispheres. The maps of Europe show the AustroHungarian Empire and the Russian Empire, not the Soviet Union. The map of Africa is barely recognizable. There’s a large country in the center of the continent labeled “Congo Free State.” How old are the maps, and what is the full cabinet worth?

A: Look for a copyright date on the maps to date them more precisely.

They predate World War I, which ended the Austro Hungarian Empire and saw the formation of the Soviet Union. The Congo Free State existed from

Drawer storage

easy to find. Be sure to accurately measure your drawers, especially the height, before going to buy one. In shallow drawers, dividers with a lot of small, narrow sections will not be as utilitarian as those with wider sections that can comfortably hold one or more objects. If you have deeper drawers, consider buying some narrow bins to keep things separated.

Cabinet storage If you have limited drawer storage, there are several good cabinet-door options.

One popular choice is to use a pegboard with hooks inside a cabinet or pantry door. Think Julia Child, but

1885 to 1908, so the maps can more precisely be dated as pre-1908. William Johnston (1802-1888) and Alexander Keith Johnston (1804-1871) were partners in a printing business that they founded in Edinburgh in 1826. Alexander became a respected geographer, and the brothers’ firm eventually printed and sold maps, atlases, guidebooks and globes. Some very old maps can sell for millions. Your maps, designed for educational purposes, are not worth that much, but your cabinet and maps could sell for hundreds of dollars if the maps are in excellent condition.

Tip: When rewiring an old Arts and Crafts lamp, use fabric-covered wire that looks very much like the silk-wrapped cord used at the turn of the 20th century.

If done neatly with tools that are in good condition, this method not only looks nice, but also makes finding what you need and cleaning up a breeze. Magnetic strips can be used for knife and spice storage.

A rod with hooks to hold spoons, whisks and ladles is also a popular solution.

As with organizing anything, maintenance is key.

But because the kitchen is used every day, keeping things orderly can be a challenge. Many kitchen tools that are marketed to make our lives easier end up having the opposite effect.

Cutting boards that take up precious counter space can be stored using a magazine holder mounted to the inside of a cabinet door.

Components for hand and upright mixers, blenders and food processors should be kept together in labeled bins or baskets.

If he’s an adult, go ahead and date him

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: When is an age gap in a relationship problematic? I’ve been single for nearly a year after getting out of a controlling, long-term relationship. I’ve lately become friends with a man who is significantly younger than I am (10 years). I initially rebuffed him because of the gap, but the more I got to know him the more I got interested.

When is a gap like that OK, and when would I be taking advantage of him to take him at his word that he’s an adult and he would like to date?

— Age Gap What does his “word” have to do with his status as an adult? He is or he isn’t. If he is, mazel tov, and if he isn’t, pass.

Carolyn: He’s 20, so, an adult — I just keep seeing articles about brain development and I guess I was worried that a 20-year-old really isn’t? Maybe I’m just psyching myself out.

— Age Gap again Just anecdotally, having been 20 once and then 30, and also currently knowing people who are 20 and 30 (not simultaneously, because that would just be freaky), it’s hard for me to envision people those ages in a relationship

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT that isn’t hampered somewhat by age. If you were 40 and 30, I wouldn’t blink, but 30-20 means one of you is a teenager plus some calendar-flips.

However, anecdotes are not applicable except as a thought experiment, and chronological maturity is not something you need to puzzle out beforehand: If you like each other, are both adults and both act like adults, then get to know each other better. That will tell you much more useful things about the relevance of age than any general opinion on age differences will.

whom had seen the notice — kept right on going with flower plans.

I’m upset that they aren’t honoring Jan’s wishes for donations, and further upset that they’re signing the flowers “from the club,” implying that we all ignored Jan’s wishes. I suppose I should say nothing until I’m asked directly for a contribution, but should I just say something polite like, “I donated directly,” or should I say something pointed like, “I honored Jan’s request, unlike SOME people”? Should I take the opportunity to push through some sort of protocol about how the club handles life events like this?

Or should I just let it go, let it go, let it go?

— Frustrated Send a check to the designated charity, then choose options a, b and e: meaning, don’t say anything until you’re asked, then say, “I donated directly,” then let it go, go, go. You’ll resent being lumped with those who ignored Jan’s wishes, yes — but they’ll resent that all get flower credit when some chose not to pitch in, so ultimately it’s a wash.

Anyone remember Bad Manners Night? I propose Middle School Day, where we can say all the snotty things that come to mind — like finishing sentences with, “ ... unlike SOME people.”

Treatment of ashes appalls daughter Dear Abby: My dad died in April after a brief illness.

Before he passed, my stepmother encouraged him to donate his body to science because she is to be buried with her first husband, and she didn’t want the expense of burying Dad. I went to pick up my father’s ashes as she requested. When I got there, she invited me into her bedroom to see that she had made a shrine to her first husband, who had died three years before she and Dad were married. The one photo she had of Dad was 2 inches by 3 inches, and was the one from his memorial invitation.

With a broken heart I made my way to the door.

Abby, she was married to my dad for 30 years. He supported her, took care of her, and worked to the age of 75 to keep her happy — and that was a task!

As I reached the front door, I remembered what I was there for in the first place — my dad’s ashes.

They were still in the UPS wrap, in a bench that he kept his shoes and boots in by the door. Seriously, who does that? — Grieving Daughter In New York Dear Grieving Daughter: Please accept my sympathy for the loss of your father.

Unless he spent the entire 30 years of his marriage sharing his bedroom with the shrine to your stepmother’s first husband, inviting you in to see it was beyond insensitive on her part. The only bright side I can see to this is that you’re now have your father’s ashes, and you will probably never have to see her again.

Dear Abby: I am the father of an 8-year-old daughter, “Lindsey.” She is my world. Her mom and I split when Lindsey was 2.

DEAR ABBY She has remarried. We are all civil, and things are good.

Lindsey is getting to the age in which sleepovers at friends’ houses are happening, which is fine because I know a few of them and their parents. I’m worried about the fathers or older brothers of the ones I don’t know. How do you ask or tell an 8-yearold about the dangers of pedophiles without scaring her? — Dad In Louisiana Dear Dad: I assume that, as a conscientious parent, you are not sending your little girl off to stay with strangers. Make it a point to meet and talk with the parents of the girls who are having the sleepovers. If that’s not possible, your ex should do it so you can both be assured that the party will be properly supervised.

You should also make sure your daughter knows she can talk to you anytime about ANYTHING and you will listen and support her.

I assume that Lindsey’s mother has already started the dialogue about the facts of life. Talk to your ex about your concerns and ask what she has discussed with Lindsey about boundaries, inappropriate touching and that Lindsey knows she can come to either of you if anyone makes her uncomfortable. The most effective way to protect a child is to ensure that there is open, comfortable communication on any subject.

Hazy sentiments cloud McGraw’s latest Tim McGraw, “Sundown Heaven Town” (Big Machine) Twenty years after his breakthrough hit, “Indian Outlaw,” Tim McGraw still pushes at country music’s boundaries. His new album, “Sundown Heaven Town,” incorporates contemporary Nashville flourishes while holding onto McGraw’s signature sound — a moody, atmospheric tone developed over the years with producer Byron Gallimore.

The album hits several creative peaks, but bogs down with too many forgettable, mid-tempo tunes.

At age 47, McGraw hits home with reflective songs about love and modern life — especially those of a mature Southern man seeking balance between the past and present.

His recent hit, “Meanwhile Back At Mama’s,” a duet with wife Faith Hill, epitomizes his strengths. McGraw’s tempered voice, all restrained emotion, conveys how the anchor of family helps him deal with the pressures of daily life.

His current single, “Shotgun

Rider,” and complicated relationship songs like “Sick of Me,” show how good McGraw is at real-life situations, buoyed by Gallimore’s atmospheric production. The veteran also offers a welcome surprise with “Diamond Rings And Barstools,” which brings a contemporary context to old-school country sounds and themes.

But too many hazy sentiments — in the songs “City Lights,” “Looking For That Girl,” “Keep on Truckin”’ — keep the collection from achieving the glowing consistency of McGraw’s best work.

After 50 years, Mendes still spreads joy of Brazilian music

Strait’s last concert album a gift to fans

Sergio Mendes, “Magic” (Okeh) Sergio Mendes continues his mission of spreading the joy of Brazilian music to a global audience on new album “Magic.”

That mission began nearly 50 years ago when he helped merge bossa nova with jazz and enjoyed commercial success with Brasil ‘66’s bossa nova-flavored arrangements of pop tunes. Now, at 73, Mendes doesn’t indulge in nostalgia, instead offering mostly new songs that he wrote or cowrote, blending contemporary styles with Brazilian rhythms in sometimes unexpected collaborations with musicians from different genres.

The album opens and closes with two exuberant sambas that reunite Mendes, John Powell and Carlinhos Brown, who collaborated on the music for the animated “Rio” films. “Simbora (Let’s Go)” and “One Nation,” also on the official FIFA World Cup album, are both guaranteed to get the body moving.

The Black Eyed Peas’ will.i.am, who recorded a hip-hop version of Brasil ‘66’s breakthrough hit “Mas Que Nada” with Mendes in 2006, produced the funky “My, My, My, My Love,” mixing electronic percussion with Mendes’

George Strait, “The Cowboy Rides Away: Live From AT&T Stadium” (MCA Nashville) The 20-song “Cowboy Rides Away: Live From AT&T Stadium” documents what was billed as Country Music Hall of Fame member George Strait’s final concert. Held on June 7 in Arlington, Texas, the event was more celebration than concert — where the waves of cheers play as big of a role as the voices and musicians.

The guest-heavy lineup leans on modern stars such as Jason Aldean, Eric Church and Miranda Lambert more than Strait’s peers or influences. Several cuts are reduced to karaoke sing-alongs, with the guests providing harmony vocals or taking a single stanza. But memorable cuts surface, such as a powerful version of “A Showman’s Life,” with Faith Hill on backing vocals.

There are other special moments. Strait reveals a playful side on a spirited duet with the great Martina McBride on the Johnny Cash-June Carter hit “Jackson.”

He and Alan Jackson stick up for country traditions on “Murder on Music Row.” And Strait finds new emotion, given the circumstances, in songs like “Give It All You Got Tonight.” The highlight is a spoken recitation in “I’ll Always Remember You,” when Strait thanks his fans for a career that far out-distanced his dreams.

This live record isn’t the place to sample Strait’s long list of hits. It is, however, a gift to those who hate to see this legendary cowboy ride off into the sunset.

hard-driving acoustic piano.

John Legend contributes his own sensuous lyrics and smooth R&B vocals on “Don’t Say Goodbye” over Mendes’ bossa arrangement, while Janelle Monae easily adapts to bossa with some airy vocals on “Visions of You.” But “Magic” above all spotlights emerging and established Brazilian artists, including Mendes’ wife, singer Gracinha Leporace, featured on Toninho Horta’s “When I Fell in Love,” a percussive tribute to Brazil’s African-influenced Bahia state.

Milton Nascimento’s trademark falsetto can be heard on his playful tune, “Olha a Rua,” while gravel-voiced Seu Jorge sings/speaks his way through the samba “Sou Eu” composed by Mendes’ mentor Moacir Santos.

Ana Carolina sings the ethereal ballad “Atlantica,” engaging in a tender vocal duet with Mendes, sensitively accompanied by the song’s composer, the master guitarist Guinga. The younger generation is represented by Maria Gadu, who co-wrote “Meu Rio” with Mendes, on which her powerful dusky vocals build to a rollicking climax.

Mendes wears many hats here — as a pianist, vocalist, composer, bandleader and producer — yet magically weaves this eclectic mix together as he enjoys a late-career revival.

Four renovation projects to do INSIDE

SEPTEMBER IS

INSIDE RENOVATION MONTH! Take advantage of the warm weather.

You’ve decided to forgo the road vacation in order to stay home and get some big jobs done around the house? Here are the top four indoor renovations to do, while the weather is warm. A handy tip: keep plenty of cool drinks on hand and set up a comfy outdoor living area, complete with lounging furniture, lighting, and an awning for rainy days.

Renovate the kitchen Renovating the kitchen can be a long, complex process, even more so because it is a key room in the home. Renovating your kitchen during the summer has its advantages: you can prepare meals outdoors on the barbecue and use the backyard as a dining area.

Redo the floors Even though sanding and varnishing techniques have greatly improved over the years, these jobs can still disrupt the entire household. With warm summer weather, it is possible to air out the room quickly after the work is done. Just be sure to leave the

Not only can you air out the rooms as you work, but you can begin the job very early in the morning and finish later because of the long daylight hours. In other words, you’ll be more productive — unless you succumb to

Change doors and windows Whether your goal is to improve the style or the energy efficiency of your home, changing the doors and windows is definitely a summer project. Warm weather is a distinct advantage, as installation can require multiple comings and goings from the outdoors.
