Another inmate dies in jail Staff checked on the woman, who was under extra supervision, at least three times the morning of her death. By Rikki King and Diana Hefley Herald Writers

EVERETT — A 62-year-old Everett woman with a history of mental health problems died Tuesday in the Snohomish

County Jail. The woman is believed to have suffered a medical emergency about 7:30 a.m., sheriff ’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. The sheriff ’s major in charge of the jail had checked on the woman at least twice earlier in

the morning, Ireton said. A captain also checked on the woman minutes before she died. Paramedics were summoned, but the woman could not be revived, Ireton said. The Herald is not naming the woman until her family has been notified of the death. Since 2010, at least 12 inmates have died at the county jail, where comprehensive reforms

have been under way to address overcrowding, medical care and other issues. The woman who died Tuesday had been living in Compass Health mental health housing in Everett, according to an arrest report. She was booked by Everett police on Sept. 19 for investigation of third-degree See JAIL, Page A2

Marysville cleaning house Crime downtown has dropped significantly after revitalization efforts

DAN BATES / THE HERALD

Marysville’s Comeford Park is just right for Annette Cooper (left) and Betty Kirk to enjoy a little lunch Tuesday and wait for a bus beneath the water tower now that crowds have vanished with summer and the spray park is closed for the season.

Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — The return of rainy weather and the start of the school year means Comeford Park is quiet again. This summer, the park was packed every day with kids frolicking in the city’s new spray

park while their families socialized under the trees. That meant there were much fewer homeless people and drug dealers there. “That spray park was really the right thing to get these families in here,” said Pat Olson, a volunteer at the Ken Baxter Community Center. “You don’t see so many of the homeless here to scare

Oil train work ahead Officials gathered with U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene to discuss what needs to happen to ensure residents are safe in case of a spill. By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

EVERETT — With rail shipments of oil through Western Washington on the rise, conversations continue about the ability of communities to protect residents in the event of a spill. On Tuesday, civic, public safety and railroad officials sat down with U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene, D-Wash., at the Snohomish County Emergency Operations Center to size up the situation from Snohomish County to the Canadian border. They concluded there’s work to be done. To prepare for an emergency, fire departments need additional training and better communication with Burlington Northern Santa Fe about what’s in the shipments, DelBene was told. And safer tank cars and elimination of at-grade road crossings will reduce the consequences should a trainload of oil go off the tracks, they said. Those are some of the issues “we’re grappling with,” Snohomish County Councilman Dave Somers told the first-term congresswoman and a representative of U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen. “Accidents do happen, so we do need to be ready,” Somers said. Attendees included BNSF representative Terry Finn, Snohomish Mayor Karen Guzak, Snohomish County Sheriff Ty Trenary, Mount Vernon Mayor Jill Boudreau, Robin Everett of the Sierra Club and Eric dePlace, policy director for the Sightline Institute of Seattle. DelBene deliberately assembled a group with often disparate views on readiness. “It is important that all of us understand what can be done to be sure our communities are safe,” she said.

assault, a felony, after she allegedly slapped a medical technician at the Compass Health triage center. Thirddegree assault cases generally involve attacks, including spitting or throwing objects, on police, firefighters, medical staff and others in custodial roles. The county’s triage center opened a few years ago to provide an alternative to jail or emergency rooms. The 16-bed center offers stabilization for people experiencing a mental health crisis. It is staffed by mental health professionals and nurses. Some people stay for a few hours, and

Trains From Page A1

Larsen held similar confabs in Snohomish, Skagit and Whatcom counties earlier this year. His district director, Jill McKinnie, attended Tuesday’s meeting, after which the congressman issued a statement. “The accidents involving trains carrying crude oil last year were a wakeup call that Congress needed to move quickly to make these trains safer,” Larsen said. “Crude-byrail traffic through the Pacific Northwest has increased exponentially in the last couple of years, which makes better safety measures all the more imperative.” Last month, a forum for leaders of Snohomish County and its cities was held in Everett. It was there that Edmonds Mayor Dave Earling described a surge in

others might need longer. “The whole hope for the triage center is that nobody gets assaulted,” said Ken Stark, director of the county’s Human Services department. At the jail, the woman was being held in an observation unit for those with issues requiring additional supervision, including behavioral and mental health concerns, Ireton said. Inmates in that unit are kept in separate cells equipped with wide windows. “She was standing at the window five minutes before the call for medical aid was issued,” Ireton said. In keeping with jail policies, the sheriff’s office plans to conduct a death investigation and a morbidity review. The morbidity review will examine

medical care and policies at the jail. The reviews were started after families of inmates who died in the jail filed a series of multimillion-dollar legal claims and lawsuits alleging inadequate care. Everett police have been called regarding the woman numerous times over the past year, officer Aaron Snell said Tuesday. The majority of those incidents involved medical concerns rather than criminal activity, he said. Everett officers also had arrested the woman on Aug. 4, public records show. She reportedly had told others she wanted to die and was going to walk into traffic. When officers approached her, she allegedly slapped one of them twice. She was booked for investigation of third-degree assault. She

was released under a court order requiring her to meet with a mental health professional, records show. The case was later dismissed. In February 2013, the woman was contacted by Everett police for abusing the 911 system. That case also was dismissed. After an inmate dies in the jail, it often takes several months before a medical determination is made as to why and how he or she died. That’s largely because of wait times for forensic test results. The most recent death at the jail was the suicide of a 19-year-old Sultan man on Sept. 9. Other causes of inmate deaths over the years have included health problems related to drug and alcohol abuse, heart attacks, an allergic reaction and an untreated infection.

The dozen deaths reported at the jail since 2010 do not include people who are rushed from the jail to the hospital and die there. Inmates who have died at the jail have ranged in age from 19 to 65. As part of the ongoing reforms initiated by Sheriff Ty Trenary the jail has adopted stricter booking policies and declined to accept some inmates with severe medical or mental health problems. In July of this year, jail staff asked arresting officers to take 29 people to the emergency room for medical attention before they were booked, Ireton said. Of those, “only 13 were brought back to the jail with full medical clearance to book,” she said. Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

coal and oil trains through Snohomish County as a “coming crisis” that threatens to damage quality of life unless addressed. Burlington Northern Santa Fe reports that each week an average of 10 trains travel through Snohomish County with shipments of at least 1 million gallons of Bakken crude. And a recent report produced for the Puget Sound Regional Council predicts that up to 18 new trains per day can be expected if a proposed coal terminal at Cherry Point opens. That report also showed that wait times at crossings will increase. Even without the coal terminal, rail traffic is expected to increase in the next 20 years. The report projects other types of freight will require up to 10 more trains a day between Everett and Vancouver, British Columbia. Opponents of coal and oil trains focused Tuesday on the threat of derailments to cause scores of injuries and widespread

property damage. “My members’ concern is that they’re toast if a train explodes,” said Robin Everett of the Sierra Club. “My members want to see a moratorium on dangerous oil shipments until these things are worked out.” She expressed concern that allowing increasing numbers of rail shipments will make Washington a fossil-fuel corridor at a time when the Pacific Northwest should be relying on alternative sources of energy. “It doesn’t fit with why people come here to live,” she said. Trenary said his office and the railroad company need to “develop better communication,” and there needs to be more joint training. In contrast, Mount Vernon Fire Chief Roy Hari praised BNSF’s assistance with training members of his department. That city might be an exception to the rule. In June, the state Emergency Management Division surveyed fire departments and

emergency managers throughout Washington on their resources and abilities to deal with a rail incident involving oil, coal or other hazardous materials. Twenty-six jurisdictions responded, and of those 62 percent said their departments are not sufficiently trained or do not have the resources necessary to respond to a train derailment that triggers a fire. Meanwhile Tuesday, Republican Pedro Celis, who is opposing DelBene in the November election, sought to make a campaign issue out of the meeting. He said that if DelBene is concerned about public safety in Washington, she should not oppose the proposed Keystone oil pipeline between Texas and Canada. Transporting oil and natural gas by pipeline is safer than rail, reduces carbon emissions and is more cost effective, he said. “She does not seem to be working to move it forward,” he said. While safety is an issue, “it is important that you don’t turn that into

an excuse so there is no progress,” he said. Celis said he supports construction of the Gateway Pacific Terminal and requiring companies that ship goods by rail to pay part of the cost of replacing at-grade crossings with bridges. Celis’ comments drew a sharp retort from a spokesman for DelBene, who noted that the congresswoman has not taken a position on either the terminal or the pipeline project. “Mr. Celis just doesn’t understand the economies of Washington and the 1st (Congressional) District are uniquely dependent on rail,” campaign spokesman Viet Shelton said. “Whether or not an oil pipeline across the country is permitted doesn’t help deal with the public safety issues communities are dealing with today,” he said. “That’s what the congresswoman was talking about today.” Jerry Cornfield: 360-3528623; jcornfield@heraldnet. com.

No charges in boy’s overdose death By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

MONROE — Detectives plan to close their investigation into the death of a 7-year-old boy who fatally overdosed now that a city prosecutor has declined to pursue misdemeanor charges against the child’s parents. “We have exhausted everything we had on this case. It is going to be closed. If new information becomes available, it will be forwarded to detectives to look at and decide whether to reopen the case,” Monroe police spokeswoman Debbie Willis said. The boy, identified in court

documents as “A.J.,” died Jan. 30, 2012, from a fatal dose of salicylates, a chemical common in aspirin and numerous other overthe-counter drugs. The Snohomish County medical examiner declined to do an autopsy despite repeated requests by Monroe police investigators. In a memo to county prosecutors, detectives wrote that their investigation was hampered by a lack of an autopsy. It was toxicology tests, which are routinely ordered by the medical examiner, that determined the boy had overdosed on salicylates. Those results arrived after his body

already had been cremated. Monroe investigators recommended the boy’s mother be charged with second-degree manslaughter. They also said they believed there was evidence to support other, less serious charges, against both parents. Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney Mark Roe declined to file any charges against the boy’s parents, saying there wasn’t sufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that a crime had been committed. Prosecutors concluded that there also wasn’t enough evidence to prove who, if anyone, provided the boy with the fatal dose of medication.

Monroe investigators later met with the city prosecutor. Specifically, they asked if there was evidence to prove that the parents made a false or misleading statement to a public official, a gross misdemeanor. The parents allegedly told investigators that they hadn’t given their son any medication except his anti-seizure medication, according to police reports. A.J. was severely developmentally delayed. A witness later reported to police that the boy’s mother told her that she had given A.J. some aspirin because he had a cold. There was some question

whether a reasonable person would consider aspirin medicine, Willis said. The city prosecutor, Melanie Thomas-Dane, determined that she wouldn’t be able to prove the elements of the offense, Willis said. A.J. was brought in just after 4 a.m. Jan. 30, 2012, to the emergency room in Monroe. His father reported that the boy was breathing and alive when they left their home, about two miles from the hospital. Monroe detectives and social workers repeatedly asked the medical examiner to conduct See DEATH, Page A4

Marysville man arrested in Everett drive-by shooting By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

EVERETT — It was after 10:30 p.m. on a Wednesday in late August when the grandma, 59, and her son, 35, decided to turn in for the night. They’d been sitting in the chairs on the front porch facing Del Campo Drive in a residential neighborhood east of Everett. She headed to her bedroom; he went to the computer room. Less than five minutes later, a

sport utility vehicle stopped in front of the home and shots were fired. Snohomish County sheriff’s deputies discovered five spent shell casings on and alongside the road. Two bullets were fired toward the front door near where the woman and her son had been minutes before. One bullet lodged into the living room wall. The other was on the ground near the front door.

Workers allege racism at Seattle tunnel site after first raising the issue. Sound Transit investigated the allegations and said in 2012 that it found troubling indications that black workers were more likely to be let go than their white colleagues at the University of Washington site. While 82 percent of white workers dispatched there remained employed after five weeks, just 43 percent of black workers did, according to a statistical analysis commissioned by the agency.

Associated Press

SEATTLE — A group of African American workers is suing the companies hired to dig Sound Transit’s light rail tunnel between the University of Washington and Capitol Hill in Seattle, saying they were assigned demeaning tasks and quickly fired because of their race. The eight workers filed a complaint in U.S. District Court this month, years

“They’d give me menial jobs or they wouldn’t give me no work at all,” said Rashad Pearson, who worked at the University of Washington site for two weeks in December 2010. “In that time I worked one day on day shift, and the whole day they had me walking around picking up paper. There were two other black guys and they had all of us walking around picking up paper.” Contractor Traylor Bros. Inc., of Indiana, is being

sued on its own and as part of the consortium TraylorFrontier-Kemper, which got the $314 million contract completed last year. Its general counsel, Steve Owen, said Tuesday the company denies the allegations. In a detailed response to the Sound Transit investigation, the company said it and a local labor union had trouble finding workers who were qualified for highly specialized work in the tunnel.

wound up being dismissed for performance or safety concerns, Traylor said. The company also said that overall people of color made up 28 percent of the consortium’s workforce — in excess of the 21 percent goal set out in its contract with Sound Transit. “In the final analysis, the only thing TFK is guilty of is insisting on fully qualified Laborers to maintain the quality and timeliness of its work and, more importantly, the safety of its personnel,” it said.

Seattle residents will be Muhlstein fined for not composting From Page A3

SEATTLE — Seattle residents who fail to separate food waste from trash will be fined. The City Council voted Monday to impose the fines for not composting. When the ordinance goes into effect next year, homeowners found with food scraps in their trash will be fined $1 for each violation KING-TV reported Tuesday. The fine is up to $50 for.... a business or apartment complex. Seattle Public Utilities estimates that about a third to one-half of what now goes in the trash should be recycled or put in compost bins.

an autopsy, based on the family’s history and circumstances surrounding the boy’s death. A.J. and his older brother were taken from their parents’ care for three months in 2010 after they were found living in squalor. Their father later pleaded guilty to reckless endangerment.

Celebrating 10

The new law is aimed at helping Seattle reach its goal of having a recycling rate of 60 percent by 2015. The change is expected to generate an additional 38,000 tons of compost material every year. San Francisco also has a mandatory composting ordinance. Currently, residents of single-family homes in Seattle are encouraged but not required to dispose of food waste and some paper products in compost bins, The Seattle Times reported. Apartment buildings must have compost bins available, but residents of apartment buildings aren’t required to use them. Businesses aren’t subject to any

composting requirements Under the new rules, collectors will take a look when they dump trash into a garbage truck. If they see more than 10 percent of the trash should be composted, they’ll enter the violation into a computer and leave a ticket on the bin that says expect a $1 fine on the next garbage bill. Collectors will begin tagging garbage bins with warnings Jan. 1. Fines start July 1. Seattle Public Utilities asked the council to consider the ordinance because the agency is falling short of its recycling and composting goals. The council vote was 9-to-0. No public hearing was required.

The medical examiner classified the boy’s death as “low suspicion.” The boy’s body was released to a funeral home just hours after the medical examiner took custody. By the time police were told about the blood test results, the body had been cremated. The case prompted changes in Snohomish County on who is notified about a child’s death when no autopsy is planned. The medical examiner has agreed to contact Child

Protective Services, law enforcement and prosecutors before releasing the body of a child to a funeral home. The medical examiner’s office has undergone numerous reforms. Most recently, the county hired a deputy director to address management issues and look at long-term improvements. Management problems led to a half-million-dollar settlement with a former death investigator. A similar lawsuit brought by a different female investigator still is pending.

than Dawg Daze. Chan said more than half of incoming students sign up for First-year Interest Groups, or FIGs. Students in the small groups share class schedules. “By creating smaller communities, the FIG program makes the UW seem smaller,” she said. Orientation sessions, outdoor activities and day trips around Seattle are also offered through First Year Programs. “There’s a lot of research around the first 10 weeks. It’s a prime time to get students connected so they’re more likely to persist,” Chan said. The UW’s size can be overwhelming. This year’s first-year .... class on the Seattle campus alone is about 6,400 students, according to Victor Balta, the UW’s director of news and information. That includes at least 464 from Snohomish County, he said. At UW Bothell, which has a total enrollment of more than 4,000, there are 1,608 new Huskies starting classes today, 633 of them firstyear students, 756 transfer students and 219 graduate students. Chan remembers her first day at the UW. “I remember a bunch of food vendors in Red Square. I had a bagel and a cup of coffee before Chem 142. It seems like a long time ago,” she said.

“It’s for all incoming students,” said Chan, who graduated with two majors, public health and law, society and justice. Dawg Daze, which Chan described as the nation’s largest college welcome week, offers more than 220 programs — concerts, academic events, “and all kinds of things in between,” she said. Just as he did on the day they met, Tran helped with this year’s Dawg Daze fun, although he is now contracting at Microsoft as a design verification engineer. A graduate of Lindbergh High School in Renton, Tran was a year ahead of Chan at UW, where in 2012 he earned a master’s degree in electrical engineering. On Monday night, the 26-year-old Tran joined his wife to help with a popular Dawg Daze event, late-night shopping at Fred Meyer. Buses picked up first-year students on campus, and took them to buy school and dorm room supplies at the Fred Meyer store in Ballard. The annual shopping night includes music, free food and other amenities for students. On a campus with more than 43,000 students, it was Dawg Daze 2010 that first brought the couple together. Chan was still an undergraduate, but had a campus job. She was

helping coordinate newstudent activities. Tran was one of more than 100 Dawg Daze student volunteers. Tran tagged along with friends who were volunteering for the 2010 shopping night. “It started raining that evening,” he recalled. He noticed Chan, who was waiting with students to board buses near a flagpole at Memorial Way on campus. “I kind of knew her from mutual friends. I saw her with an umbrella, and decided to go over and talk, and stand there with the umbrella.” They chatted that night about a shared interest in running. They were both training for the Dawg Dash, an annual run that starts on the UW campus. “It was the first time someone was talking with me about something I love,” Chan said. After the 2010 shopping night, they made plans to go running together. “We’ve kind of made Dawg Dash our annual thing,” Chan said. Tran said his wife-tobe spelled out her love for him using photos of places on campus. A picture of one of the Sylvan Grove columns stood for the letter “I.” Home is now in the University District.

Tribes from U.S., Canada sign bison treaty By Matthew Brown Associated Press

BILLINGS, Mont. — Native tribes from the U.S. and Canada signed a treaty Tuesday establishing an inter-tribal alliance to restore bison to areas of the Rocky Mountains and Great Plains where millions of the animals once roamed. Leaders of 11 tribes from Montana and Alberta signed the pact during a daylong ceremony on Montana’s Blackfeet Reservation, organizers said. It marks the first treaty among the tribes and First Nations since a series of agreements governing hunting rights in the 1800s. That was when their ancestors still roamed the border

region hunting bison, also called buffalo. The long-term aim of Tuesday’s “Buffalo Treaty” is to allow the free flow of the animals across the international border and restore the bison’s central role in the food, spirituality and economies of many American Indian tribes and First Nations — a Canadian synonym for native tribes. Such a sweeping vision could take many years to realize, particularly in the face of potential opposition from the livestock industry. But supporters said they hope to begin immediately restoring a cultural tie with bison largely severed when the species was driven to near-extinction in the late 19th century.

“The idea is, hey, if you see buffalo in your everyday life, a whole bunch of things will come back to you,” said Leroy Little Bear, a member of southern Alberta Blood Tribe who helped lead the signing ceremony. “Hunting practices, ceremonies, songs — those things revolved around the buffalo. Sacred societies used the buffalo as a totem. All of these things are going to be revised, revitalized, renewed with the presence of buffalo,” said Little Bear, a professor emeritus of Native American studies at the University of Lethbridge. Bison numbered in the tens of millions across North America before the West was settled. By the

1880s, unchecked commercial hunting to feed the bison hide market reduced the population to about 325 animals in the U.S. and fewer than 1,000 in Canada, according to wildlife officials and bison trade groups in Canada. Around the same time, tribes were relocated to reservations and forced to end their nomadic traditions. There are about 20,000 wild bison in North America today. Ranchers and landowners near two Montana reservations over the past several years fought unsuccessfully against the relocation of dozens of Yellowstone National Park bison due to concerns about disease and bison competing with cattle for

grass. The tribes involved — the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck Reservation and the Assiniboine and Gros Ventre Tribes of the Fort Belknap Reservations — were among those signing Tuesday’s treaty. Keith Aune, a bison expert with the Wildlife Conservation Society, said the agreement has parallels with the 1855 Lame Bull Treaty, a peace deal brokered by the U.S. government that established hunting rights tribes. “They shared a common hunting ground, and that enabled them to live in the buffalo way,” Aune said. “We’re recreating history, but this time on (the tribes’) terms.” The treaty signatories

this tragedy,” the letter said. “Because there are no comparable Washington state programs, FEMA assistance with housing and household goods is necessary.” In the letter, the elected officials said that in the small town of Pateros, for example, 87 homes were destroyed. FEMA earlier did approve Inslee’s request for public assistance that will help the county and tribal governments pay for repair of infrastructure damaged in the fires. That approval means FEMA will reimburse Okanogan County and the Colvilles for 75 percent of the costs of eligible expenses related to disaster-damaged facilities such as roads, bridges and public utilities.

collectively control more than 6 million acres of prairie habitat in the U.S. and Canada, an area roughly the size of Vermont, according to Aune’s group. Among the first sites eyed for bison reintroduction is along the Rocky Mountain Front, which includes Montana’s Blackfeet Reservation bordering Glacier National Park and several smaller First Nation reserves. “I can’t say how many years. It’s going to be a while and of course there’s such big resistance in Montana against buffalo,” said Ervin Carlson a Blackfeet member and president of the 56-tribe InterTribal buffalo council. “But within our territory, hopefully, someday.”

SPOKANE — A man who attempted to pet a bull moose in a Spokane cemetery was arrested after fighting with a wildlife officer. Police said Joseph D. Patterson, 33, interfered with the state Fish and Wildlife officer who was trying to corral the agitated moose Sunday at Holy Cross Cemetery. The Spokesman-Review reported that Patterson approached, saying he wanted to pet the moose and take a picture. The officer asked Patterson to stop. The two scuffled. Police arrived to help and found illegal prescription drugs on Patterson. He was jailed on suspicion of assault, drug possession and resisting arrest.

Wenatchee: Body identified A body found by hunters 15 miles north of Leavenworth has been identified as Yannick Chancey Periou, 26, of St. George, Utah. The Chelan County Sheriff’s Office said Tuesday there is still no indication of the cause of death. The body was badly decomposed when it was found Aug. 31 just off a Forest Service road by two men who were scouting hunting sites.

Olympia: Ideas from rec task force A task force created by Gov. Jay Inslee earlier this year is making several recommendations on how to grow the state’s outdoor industry and increase participation in outdoor recreation. The Blue Ribbon Task Force on Parks and Outdoor Recreation on Tuesday recommended 12 actions, including the creation of a coordinating council on outdoor recreation and to spend more money on outdoor programs for children. The task force also calls for eliminating policy and tax barriers to outdoor recreation, and cite changing the state tax policy to encourage owners of large boats to spend more time in Washington state waters. Inslee formed the 29-member task force in February. The group has held five public meetings since then. Inslee called the recommendations “well thought out and practical” and says he will work with the Legislature to see if they can be enacted. From Herald news services

haun Curtain is the father of a homeschooling family of six children. His family’s heritage includes pioneer stories and a beautiful upright piano that was brought across the Oregon Trail. Sadly, no one in his family knows how to play the piano. Sure, occasionally the kids plunk out a few notes or bang their fists against the keys for a cacophonic concerto, but for the most part, the piano doesn’t get used. Curtain often shares this story with gun owners who attend his concealed carry classes. He correlates the analogy with the fact many people own guns, but don’t know how to properly use them. In the case of the piano, if a trained or untrained person attempts to play a song, there is no harm done. On the other hand, a gun, whether it’s in the hands of someone who has never held one or an individual with vast training, has the power to harm. “A firearm is not a talisman,” Curtain said. “It’s a tool that can hurt someone, hurt yourself and even lead to the loss

J. California Cooper, prolific author, playwright, dies at 82 By Donna Gordon Blankinship Associated Press

SEATTLE — Prolific writer J. California Cooper, who was writing plays until Alice Walker suggested she switch to short stories and novels, because they were an easier path to a paycheck, has died at age 82. Cooper died early Saturday after experiencing several heart attacks over the past few years, her daughter Paris Williams said Tuesday. She lived most of her life in northern California and wrote more than a dozen plays and had about a dozen books published after switching to prose fiction. She met Walker after the Pulitzer Prize winner came to see one of her plays.

“Her advice to my mother was you should write short stories or novels because it was easier to get paid. She went home and wrote 12 stories,” Williams said. When Cooper asked Walker to write an introduction to her first story collection, the writer who had just been honored for “The Color Purple” asked to publish the book at her own publishing house. Walker also helped Cooper get one of her stories published in Essence magazine and the book took off from there, Williams said. Williams called Cooper a hard worker who worked a variety of jobs from a teamster on the Alaska pipeline to an escrow officer and a manicurist to pay the bills. She went to the

pipeline to work as a secretary and switched to bus and truck driving after she realized she could make a lot more money, her daughter recalls. She drove welders up to their work site and then panned for gold while waiting for the return trip, Williams said. “My mother tried a lot of things when I was growing up,” she said. “Writing was something she always did. She just stuck them in a drawer.” She was known for a folksy, conversational style and for stories of women scarred by violence or betrayal. Her work was praised for its power and at times criticized for being didactic. Her collections included “A Piece of Mine” and “Homemade Love.” Reviewing her novel

“Family” in The New York Times in 1990, Roy Hoffman called it “the sort of book that ought to be read out loud.” “Never mind that the narrator, Clora, is a ghost,” Hoffman wrote. “In its strong rhythms and colloquial expressions, this book is a living woman’s monologue. At times, Clora even seems to lean toward us, grabbing at our lapels.” Williams said her mother never took her fame seriously. “She used to say people have forgotten all about me,” Williams said. “But all her books are still in print. It’s pretty amazing.” Her mother did not want a funeral and requested instead that she be remembered with personal acts of kindness or charity.

Congress: Airstrikes mostly OK Its members will let you know for sure after the midterm elections By Lisa Mascaro Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Congress found itself in a familiar position after President Barack Obama ordered airstrikes on terrorists in Syria — clamoring for a legislative role in the process, but perhaps relieved of not being asked to take one. Members of Congress registered mostly approval Tuesday of the military campaign, which targeted not only Islamic State, but also the emerging Khorasan Group that officials said posed a more imminent threat to the

United States and the West. Lawmakers particularly praised the administration’s ability to assemble a coalition of Arabstate allies to join the U.S.-led mission. At the same time, those who have resisted what many worry could become another long and costly Mideast entanglement largely withheld criticism in the immediate aftermath of U.S. troops engaged in overseas action. “I support the airstrikes launched by the president,” said House Speaker John A. Boehner, R-Ohio, “understanding that

this is just one step in what must be a larger effort to destroy and defeat this terrorist organization.” Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., the House minority leader, commended the president “for his strong leadership in building the broad coalition that joined U.S. forces in airstrikes on ISIS targets in Syria.” With the House and Senate in recess so lawmakers can campaign for the November elections, Obama’s willingness to orchestrate military action without Congress may reverberate across the

campaign trail. Before leaving for the campaign trail, Congress sidestepped a vote on whether the administration can conduct airstrikes under War Powers resolutions passed in 2001 and 2002, the run-ups to the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. Instead, the House and Senate passed a more modest request to train and equip moderate Syrian rebels in the fight against Islamic State, also known as ISIS. Lawmakers have vowed to play a larger role — after the midterm elections.

U.S. alone hits Khorasan Group Associated Press WASHINGTON — The U.S. decision to strike the Khorasan Group to stop a possible terror attack represents a significant expansion of the largely secret war against core al-Qaida, a group President Barack Obama has proclaimed was “a shadow of its former self.” Administration officials said Tuesday they have been watching the Khorasan Group,

an al-Qaida cell in Syria, for years. But Obama had resisted taking military action in Syria to avoid inadvertently helping President Bashar Assad, a leader the U.S. would like to see gone. That changed, officials said, because intelligence showed that the Khorasan Group was in the final stages of plotting attacks against the U.S. and Europe, most likely an attempt to blow up an airplane in flight.

On the same night that U.S. and Arab allies carried out more than 200 airstrikes against the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq, the U.S. on its own launched more than 20 Tomahawk cruise missiles and other ordinance against eight Khorasan Group targets near Aleppo in northwestern Syria, Pentagon officials said. It’s not clear yet whether the group’s leader, identified by U.S. officials as

Muhsin al-Fadhli, was killed in the strikes. He is a Kuwaiti who spent time in Iran and has long been identified as a significant figure in al-Qaida. But regardless of the impact, the need for such an operation against the Khorasan Group dealt a blow to the notion, oft-repeated by Obama administration officials, that core al-Qaida has been significantly diminished as a threat to the United States.

ACROSS THE U.S.

Life in prison for Bin Laden son-in-law WASHINGTON — Sulaiman abu Ghaith, a top al-Qaida leader and Osama bin Laden’s son-in-law, was sentenced in New York on Tuesday to life in prison with no possibility of parole, becoming the highest-ranking adviser to the terrorist group to be convicted and now punished in a civilian court in the United States. Ghaith, 48, was sentenced on three federal charges, including conspiracy to kill Americans and providing material support to terrorists. He was convicted in March after federal prosecutors accused him of working alongside bin Laden in an Afghanistan cave after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks and serving as al-Qaida’s spokesman by warning, often in grainy videos, that more terrorist strikes were coming.

D.C.: Senate says ‘no’ to Obama judicial nominee In a rare rebuff from his own party, the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Monday that President Barack Obama’s controversial nomination of Michael Boggs to become a federal judge lacks enough votes to survive and should be withdrawn. The fate of Boggs’s nomination has been in doubt for months, after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and other Senate Democrats expressed opposition to him because of positions he has taken on abortion, same-sex marriage and the Confederate flag.

ANALYSIS

The man who killed two former coworkers and then himself at a UPS shipping center Tuesday had told some people that he was having problems at work but never suggested the situation might turn violent, his pastor said. Birmingham police late Tuesday identified the shooter as Kerry Joe Tesney, 45, of suburban Trussville. They did not release the slain people’s names but said they were part of management. They are investigating as a double homicide and suicide.

Obama’s UN speech spins statistics An occasional look at claims that may not tell the whole story By Dina Cappiello And Seth Borenstein Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS — President Barack Obama glossed over some inconvenient truths Tuesday in his climate-change speech to the United Nations. For one, as the U.S. cleans up emissions at home, it’s sending dirty fuel abroad to pollute the same sky. As well, the U.S. is not cleaning up quite as aggressively as Obama implied in his remarks. Obama was among scores of world leaders at the gathering, which followed by days a mass demonstration in New York City in support of action to combat global warming. A look at some of Obama’s claims and how they compare with the facts: Obama: “Over the past eight years, the United States has reduced our total carbon pollution by more than any other nation on Earth.” The facts: Europe as a whole has cut a bigger proportion of its emissions. From 2005 to 2013, the period cited by Obama, the European Union reduced carbon dioxide

by 13.9 percent, compared with a 10 percent reduction in the U.S. Because the United States pollutes more, it has reduced more raw emissions than the EU — cutting raw tonnage by 649 million tons since 2005, compared with Europe’s reduction of 614 million tons. But Europe has cut a bigger proportion of its emissions. From 1990 levels, the benchmark year from which the EU measures progress, emissions were down about 18 percent in Europe. Meanwhile, compared with 1990, U.S. emissions are up about 10 percent, based on data from the Global Carbon Project. Obama: “So, all told, these advances have helped create jobs, grow our economy, and drive our carbon pollution to its lowest levels in nearly two decades — proving that there does not have to be a conflict between a sound environment and strong economic growth.” The facts: About half of the 10 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions the U.S. has achieved in recent years can be attributed to the economic recession, not any specific actions from the Obama

administration. Obama’s comments also left out that U.S. carbon emissions rose 2.9 percent from 2012 to 2013, the first increase since 2007, because higher natural gas prices spurred more coal use. Obama: “We’re helping more nations skip past the dirty phase of development, using current technologies, not duplicating the same mistakes and environmental degradation that took place previously.” The facts: The U.S. is actually sending more dirty fuel abroad even as it takes steps to help other nations transition to cleaner energy. The U.S. has cuts its own coal consumption by 195 million tons in six years. But according to an AP analysis of Energy Department data, about 20 percent of that coal was shipped to power plants and other customers overseas. Emissions from that coal were not eliminated but rather moved to other countries. As well, the U.S. exported more products refined from oil — another dirty fuel — than it imported, starting in 2011. Obama: “Today I’m directing our federal agencies to begin factoring climate resilience into our international development programs and investments.” The facts: Not an entirely new effort. The U.S. Agency for International Development already

factors climate-change impact in its assistance programs, says Oxfam America. Raymond C. Offenheiser, Oxfam America’s president, welcomed news that more U.S. agencies will do the same while saying that amounts to “a drop in the bucket” without additional financial commitments. Obama Administration: From a White House background document: “The Climate Action Plan is working. In 2012, U.S. greenhouse gas emissions fell to the lowest level in nearly two decades.” The facts: That plan has nothing to do with reductions in emissions in 2012 because it was not announced until June 2013. Moreover, two of its cornerstone regulations — controls on new and existing coal-fired power plants — are at this point just proposals. The administration isn’t expected to complete those rules until next year and some states may not submit plans until after Obama leaves office. The statement also leaves out the fact that in 2013, emissions in the U.S. rose for the first time since 2007. Obama did invest in renewable energy and boost fuel economy before announcing the climate plan. But the plan can’t be credited with improving anything before it came into existence.

India has triumphed in its first interplanetary attempt by successfully putting a satellite into orbit around Mars. Scientists broke into wild cheers Wednesday morning as the orbiter’s engines completed 24 minutes of burn time and maneuvered into its designated place around the red planet. The success of India’s Mars Orbiter Mission, affectionately nicknamed MOM, brings India into an elite club of Martian explorers that includes United States, the European Space Agency and the former Soviet Union. The Indian Space and Research Organisation described the mission as flawless.

Africa: 1.4 million cases of Ebola by January, or none U.S. health officials Tuesday laid out worst-case and best-case scenarios for the Ebola epidemic in West Africa, warning that the number of infected people could explode to at least 1.4 million by mid-January — or the outbreak could be almost over by then, if control efforts are ramped up. The widely varying projections by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention were based on conditions in late August and do not take into account a recent international surge in medical aid for the stricken region. That burst has given health authorities reason for some optimism.

Gaza: Palestinians seek $3.8 billion in aid Palestinian Prime Minister Rami Hamdallah said Tuesday he has asked for $3.8 billion in urgent aid to help rebuild Gaza following its devastating 50-day war with Israel this summer. Hamdallah said Saudi Arabia has pledged $500 million and other nations have indicated they would join in. The aid request comes as Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas Abbas is preparing to submit a resolution to the U.N. Security Council seeking a three-year timetable for the withdrawal of Israeli forces from the West Bank. From Herald news services

Aerospace ‘solid’ in region The governor’s summit will focus on several areas of manufacturing. By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

EVERETT — Some of the top people in Washington’s advanced manufacturing industry will be in Everett later this month for the Governor’s Aerospace Summit on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1. The event at Xfinity Arena is

hosted by the Aerospace Futures Alliance and focuses on that industry. But sessions will cover the maritime and medical device manufacturing sectors, as well. “We look at aerospace as providing a solid base for our region to springboard off to other industries, and that is why we have chosen also to spotlight two of the key ones, maritime and medical device, in this year’s discussion,” Linda Lanham, the alliance’s president, said in a news release. The summit will start with comments from Tim Keating,

one of Boeing’s top executives in Washington, D.C. His experience bridges the business and public policy worlds. Later that first day, there will be a roundtable discussion with Janicki Industries CEO John Janicki, Phillips Healthcare exec Anne LeGrande and leaders in maritime manufacturing. The discussion will be moderated by Troy McClelland, an Everett port commissioner and head of Economic Alliance Snohomish County. That will be followed by a workshop on manufacturing

employers’ options for workforce training. The summit’s second day includes a presentation about how manufacturing businesses can improve their bottom lines. Randy Tinseth, vice president of marketing for Boeing Commercial Airplanes, will give an update on the company’s strategy for the next 20 years. Gov. Jay Inslee will close the summit with a keynote address. For more information and to register, go to the Aerospace Futures Alliance website at afawa.com.

Coal company exec pleads guilty to fraud in Seattle The CEO of a China-based energy company headquartered in Seattle has pleaded guilty to two counts of securities fraud. The U.S. Attorney’s Office said Dickson Lee was the head of the coal company L&L Energy when he ran a scheme to defraud investors while trying to get the company’s stock listed on the national exchange. Prosecutors said Lee also issued thousands of shares to people in China who then sold the shares on the market. Lee could face up to 25 years in prison for each count at his sentencing Jan. 9 at the federal court in Seattle.

Tacoma lumber firm to be offered for sale Simpson Lumber Co. said it has hired a consultant to explore a sale. The privately owned Tacoma-based business has mills in Tacoma, Longview and Shelton, as well as operations in South Carolina and Georgia. The company has 800 employees nationwide. In March, Simpson sold its Tacoma kraft paper mill to RockTenn of Norcross, Georgia, for $343 million. As part of that deal, RockTenn signed a sevenyear contract for wood chips with Simpson Lumber. Simpson Lumber was founded in Matlock in 1890. Its timberlands were spun off in 2006 in a separate company, Green Diamond Resources.

Oil prices decline despite turmoil Demand is down, but the crude is flowing and plentiful around the world. By Jonathan Fahey Associated Press

NEW YORK — The oil market has lost its jitters. Some regions around the world are seeing the type of unrest that in the past sent oil prices soaring. Yet oil is down about $15 a barrel since midsummer and near its low for the year.

Even with escalating violence in Iraq, OPEC’s second largest exporter, and multiple rounds of sanctions by Western nations against Russia, the biggest exporter outside of OPEC, oil keeps on flowing. The major exporting nations continue to ship their crude, and production in the U.S. and Canada continues to grow. At the same time, demand from China and Europe isn’t growing as much as expected, leaving more oil on the market than predicted. “Demand has really dropped off globally, and continues to

be revised downward,” says Judith Dwarkin, chief energy economist at ITG Investment Research. “And there’s plentiful supply.” Oil rose slightly Tuesday to close at $91.56. Before this week, the last time oil was at these levels was January. For the year, oil has averaged $99.80 per barrel. The price did reach $107.26 in June at the peak of concerns over the insurgency in Iraq, but it soon retreated when it became clear Iraq’s huge southern oil fields weren’t threatened. Some of the decline is likely due to a seasonal lull in

demand. Driving slows dramatically throughout much of the Northern Hemisphere as summer wanes. If there are no hurricanes or other disruptions to oil supplies, prices typically fall and languish into the winter. But the global economy is a factor as well. The International Energy Agency, which represents oil-importing nations, said earlier this month that crude demand has slowed at a “remarkable” pace because of economic slowdowns in Europe and China.

Get kids off the tobacco farm, Dems say One report said children show symptoms of nicotine poisoning after working in the fields. By Frederic J. Frommer Associated Press

biz bits

WASHINGTON — Thirty-five House Democrats are urging the Obama administration to prohibit children from working on tobacco farms, citing concerns about ill health effects. The lawmakers, led by Reps. David Cicilline, D-R.I., and Matt

Cartwright, D-Pa., made their plea in a letter to Labor Secretary Thomas Perez. A copy of the letter was obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday. In 2012, the Labor Department withdrew a proposed rule that would have banned children under 16 from several kinds of agriculture work, including tobacco farms. In their letter, the lawmakers, all Democrats, urged a narrower ban dealing solely with children on tobacco farms. The letter doesn’t specify an age limit, but a spokesman for Cicilline said he and other lawmakers would prefer the ban apply to

children under 18. Cicilline has a bill in Congress that would amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to ban kids under 18 from jobs where they have direct contact with tobacco plants or leaves. The lawmakers cited a Human Rights Watch report issued in May that said nearly three-quarters of the children it interviewed reported vomiting, nausea and headaches while working on tobacco farms. Those symptoms are consistent with nicotine poisoning often called green tobacco sickness, which occurs when workers absorb nicotine through

U.S. health regulators are trying to help doctors spot counterfeit and unapproved drugs by raising awareness of illegal operations that peddle bogus drugs to health professionals. Federal prosecutors have recently uncovered rogue companies distributing foreign versions of Botox, fake cancer drugs and other unapproved or contaminated medicines in the U.S. Often those operations will entice physicians by faxing “too good to be true” fliers that offer 75 percent or more off pricey injectable drugs. Beginning Tuesday, the Food and Drug Administration will push back with an educational campaign, faxing fliers to physicians across the country on how to recognize bogus offers and counterfeit drugs. The World Health Organization estimates that global sales of medicines that are fake, contaminated or otherwise illegal total $430 billion a year.

Patagonia pays $4K for violations in Utah Outdoor clothing company Patagonia said Tuesday it has agreed to pay a $4,000 settlement to Capitol Reef National Park in Utah after rock climbing policies were violated in the making of a catalog photograph. The agreement came after park rangers discovered illegal climbing routes in the red rock park after seeing the photograph in a September 2011 Patagonia catalog. The images depicted a first climb on a new route. Rangers found illegal climbing bolts were embedded in rock, and other rocks had been moved to create three illegal climbing routes. Patagonia spokesman Adam Fetcher said a freelance photographer shot the image, and the company has no relationship with the two individuals pictured climbing. From Herald news services

Amnesty blasts China’s torture tools Oil Chinese companies make and sell dastardly items, a report says.

From Page A11

By Didi Tang Associated Press

BEIJING — Chinese production and export of police equipment primarily used for torture, such as electric shock wands and neck-and-wrist cuffs connected by a chain, has grown dramatically, enabling human rights violations at home and abroad, Amnesty International said in a report Tuesday. More than 130 Chinese companies, up from 28 about a decade ago, are now engaged in the development, production and export of law enforcement tools, most of which are legitimate, but many of which are inherently cruel and inhumane, the London-based human rights group said. The 38-page report also cited as examples spiked batons and restraint chairs with a desk-like surface in front where arms can be shackled, often with ankle cuffs beneath that force detainees into painful contortions. “There is no excuse whatsoever for allowing the manufacturing and trade in equipment for which the primary purpose is to torture or inflict cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment on people,” Patrick Wilcken, security trade and human rights researcher at Amnesty International, said in a statement. China explicitly bans torture and mistreatment of inmates, and it strongly denies widespread allegations that torture is often used by Chinese police

and Communist Party investigators. Earlier this year, Zhao Chunguang, a national official overseeing police detention facilities, said there had not been a single case of torture used to coerce a confession at any detention center throughout China for the past five years. Amnesty says it has documented a wide range of physical torture in China, including the use of electric shock batons. And on Monday, the Xinhua News agency reported that a court in northeastern China had convicted three police officers and four other non-police officers of torturing suspects and killing one person. One victim said he was restrained to an iron chair while being prodded with an electric shock baton, Xinhua said. Amnesty urged China in the report to ban the production and export of several of the kinds of

equipment it says are torture tools or inherently cruel, especially to countries with poor human rights records. It said the tools are being shipped to Cambodia, Nepal, Congo, Egypt, Ghana, Madagascar, Senegal and Uganda. Faced with rising social tensions, China has been pumping more money to maintain social orders. Its annual budget for domestic security skyrocketed over the past decade to $125 billion, higher than its defense budget last year. The Public Security Ministry did not respond to requests for comment. The report, jointly compiled with U.K.-based Omega Research Foundation, which specializes in research on military, security and police equipment, said that Chinese-made rigid restraint chairs “have no legitimate law enforcement use” and that the U.N. Committee against Torture has recommended

they be abolished. Omega found 96 Chinese companies making or selling abroad electric shock stun weapons, which apply electrical shock directly to an individual. The report says they can be abused as a torture tool when applied to sensitive body parts. Calls to one of the companies that makes electric-shock wands, Anhua Police Equipment Manufacturing Co., in eastern Jiangsu province, were referred to a senior manager who identified himself only by his surname Ma. He decline to answer questions from a foreign media outlet. A woman who answered the phone at Yuanda Industrial and Trade Co., which makes restraint chairs and neck-and-wrist cuffs, said the company was producing only what the government has approved and is not responsible for any wrongdoing.

As a result, the agency has reduced its forecast for growth of global demand by 100,000 barrels per day for both this year and next year. Global demand is now expected to grow by 900,000 barrels per day to 92.6 million barrels per day this year, then rise by 1.2 million barrels per day next year. Just the rise in U.S. production is enough to meet that demand growth. The U.S. Energy Department estimates the U.S. is on track to grow crude production by 1.1 million barrels per day this year and another 1 million barrels per day next year. Oswald Clint, an oil analyst at Bernstein Research, does not expect oil prices to fall further, however, or even remain at these lower levels for long. He predicts that demand will rise in response to the lower prices.

for comment. Some of the large tobacco companies, such as Altria Group Inc. and Philip Morris International Inc., also didn’t respond to requests for comment Tuesday. In May, Philip Morris International CEO Andre Calantzopoulos said the Human Rights Watch report had uncovered “serious child labor abuses that should not occur on any farm, anywhere.” An Altria spokesman said at the time that restricting tobacco work to people 18 and over “is really contrary to a lot of the current

He also expects some supply to come off the market. Oil producers might cut back output at some of their more expensive fields, while OPEC countries could cut production in hopes of keeping oil prices high. Earlier this month the secretary general of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, which supplies 40 percent of the world’s crude, said it may need to lower production targets for next year. Clint notes that the price of global oil for delivery in future months is higher than oil priced for delivery next month, suggesting that prices are indeed set to rise. Brent crude, a key international benchmark, closed at $96.85 in London. The contract for August 2015 finished at $100.06. “The long-term trajectory is upward,” he wrote, and the oil price pullback is “a buying opportunity within a dramatically under-valued energy space.”

practices that are in place in the U.S. and is at odds in these communities where family farming is really a way of life.” U.S. agriculture labor laws allow children to work longer hours at younger ages and in more hazardous conditions than children in any other industry, according to the Human Rights Watch report. With their parent’s permission, children as young as 12 can be hired for unlimited hours outside of school hours on a farm of any size. “Working in tobacco fields can have harmful consequences on children, and it’s time child protection laws and regulations caught up with our values as a nation,” Cicilline said in a statement.

IN OUR VIEW | 44th District, state Senate

Steve Hobbs earns re-election Voters take note: State Sen. Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens, rankles members of both political parties. As Churchill said (and we’re not suggesting the incumbent senator is Churchillian, mind you), “You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime.” Hobbs has been a sweatequity lawmaker who stands up — often successfully — in support of contentious issues. We don’t agree with him on some policies, but he’s a workhorse who merits reelection. Hobbs is a near-perfect expression of his diverse, hardto-nail-down 44th District: A sometimes-Libertarian independent Democrat who tries to navigate a middle ground. It’s

not a posture that wins friends in a caucus meeting. But it’s the mostly sensible center, which voters embrace. Hobbs, co-vice chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, deserves credit for trying, albeit unsuccessfully, to rescue a transportation-finance package and ensure that county-specific projects (think Highway 9) were part of the deal. He expressed a willingness to yield on a series of Republican-reform demands, including application of the sales tax and tweaks to prevailing wage. The effort was blunted by the majority caucus coalition, which was unsatisfied with progress on its must-have list. As a de facto member of the minority party, Hobbs could only

make incremental progress on matters dear to him, such an amendment to open up Medicaid funding for Washington nursing homes. “I helped put together the moderate caucus in 2010,” Hobbs said, sidestepping the group’s unfortunate moniker (“roadkill,” for what happens to those sitting in the middle of the road.) Hobbs’ capable opponent, Jim Kellett, who plays down his Republican affiliation, could be an honorary road-killer if elected in November. Kellett, a financial adviser for Edward Jones Investments since 1994, is a fiscal conservative who expressed serious reservations about the Boeing tax package. He’s more averse than Hobbs

to raising taxes to fund K-12 consistent with the McCleary decision, while seeing eye-toeye on initiatives such as I-594 (both are opposed to universal background checks to purchase a firearm.) One major reservation regarding Hobbs is his choice of friends and staff. Hobbs helped launch the mischiefmaking career of Kevin Hulten, the disgraced former aide to Snohomish County Executive Aaron Reardon, and he also was one of Reardon’s closest pals. Hobbs refused to discuss Hulten’s activities with The Herald in 2013. We can only hope that Hobbs’ poor judgment was an aberration. Two qualified candidates; the nod goes to Hobbs.

Regarding the article, “Lawmakers give governor an earful about ferries”: I hate to tell you this folks, but it’s not just the ferry system that needs a good shake-up. This whole state needs one. We need leadership and legislators that can control themselves enough to stop spending money we do not have on things we do not need. You know — just like at home when the paycheck doesn’t go far enough. Except in the state’s case, it’s tax revenue. That is the only way this state will get out of debt and hope to have any kind of financial surplus. Does every hand stuck under their noses need a pile of cash placed in it? That’s how they seem to do it nowadays here in my home state.

Regarding the article, “Salmon habitat project on Smith Island to proceed”: The flooding of 350 acres in the Snohomish River delta to create new salmon habitat could be a $25 million mistake. These flat farm fields will look good at high tide, but at low tide will leave a few shallow ponds that the sea birds will have no problem getting the small fish. The floods we have every year have a lot of destructive power and could ruin the ponds. East of the freeway over the Snohomish River in North Everett is a wide spot called Canyon Flats; the old Canyon Lumber Milll was above it. The freeway from Everett to Marysville is built on top of material a suction dredge dug out of the flats. The huge hole in the river was 40 feet deep at low water. By one year later, it was completely filled back to normal. There is a good chance we could end up with 350 acres of ugly mud flats.

Under the category of “Much Ado About Nothing” comes the news story about the Snohomish County Council declining to waste their time filling an interim legislative position in which the appointee will have nothing to do. When Mike Hope resigned his House seat in disgrace, the process was that his party would choose three candidates to fill that seat until the election in November, and that the County Council would select one. However, the legislative session was over, and there would not be another session until after the election. So, I guess that the logical question would be this: why fill it at all? What a waste of time and money. The County Council recognized this. We don’t need a warm body in that position. But of course, common sense rarely prevails in politics. The Republicans are screaming because their top choice just coincidentally happens to be their candidate for that seat, and wouldn’t it have been a great shot in the arm for the campaign if their man could have squatted in the office until the November election? Surprisingly, even The Herald’s political columnist is jumping on board with the gnashing of teeth (shame on you, Jerry!) He compares this to the County Council filling a seat rapidly when the Democrats got to fill one. Apples and oranges — at that time, the Legislature was still in session and there was actually state business for the appointee to do. My hope is that Gov. Inslee, who now gets to choose, will move this task to the bottom of the priority pile, where it belongs.

The Saturday guest commentary, “Seeking affordability as land dwindles,” authored by the Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish counties, speaks to this issue in central Puget Sound. The commentary suggests several possible ways to “resolve” the “problem.” I am totally unsympathetic! Rather, I’m extremely grateful for the state, county, second local development and environmental regulations that continue to preserve and protect our quality of life. Ask current residents, daily commuters, and others, if we need to pack more people into this area. To view an extreme example of hyper-overdevelopment, visit the October 2014 issue of National Geographic magazine, pages 66-67. This is a two-page aerial view of Sun City, Arizona, near Phoenix, where population has grown four times larger between 1970 and 2010. The pictured extensive residential development can best be described as a human beehive on tiny, closepacked lots. We must not fall into the trap of putting our future into the hands of relentless, profitdriven developers. Thoughtful regulatory controls and strong enforcement are essential.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■SHERIFF’S RACE

Trenary tackles tough problems As volunteers at the north precinct for the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office, we support Sheriff Ty Trenary in the upcoming election to that office. Collectively, we have served 18 years as volunteers and had the opportunity to observe and get to know Sheriff Trenary while he served as captain at our north precinct. He was always professional and a “hands on” manager. Previously he served as chief at the Stanwood Police Department. He not only has many years of service in law enforcement, he has many years of experience in management. Soon after he was appointed to be the Snohomish County Sheriff, he was faced with extraordinary events and circumstances. It became apparent that the county jail needed major improvements and he took immediate action to start changes, there are no quick fixes here, it will take time; next the Oso landslide occurred. Both of these situations were major undertakings, that he quite remarkably handled, particularly because he had just taken on that position. We are confident Sheriff Trenary has the experience, skills, ethics and personality to continue to run the sheriff’s office and should be given the opportunity to continue to serve as sheriff.

Local vote matters more than federal elections

he other day I was talking with a relative, and the subject of voting came up. He didn’t know anything about the coming elections, who the candidates are, and when you can vote. That is, he was like the majority of Washington citizens, for better or worse. That makes you wonder about why people vote, or don’t vote. In terms of not voting, Snohomish County has a poor record. Snohomish had the worst turnout of any county in the state in August’s primary, with a little over 100,000 people — one quarter of registered voters — casting their ballots in Snohomish County. That equals 19 percent of all JOHN BURBANK residents over the age of 18. Voters didn’t do much better in 2013, when only two-fifths of voters in Snohomish County bothered to vote in the November general election. That was half of the number of people who voted in the 2012 general election, when 334,664 people cast their ballots. So we know that people will vote, when they think it might make a difference, like between Romney and Obama or Inslee and McKenna. But they don’t pay a lot of attention in the years between presidential elections. And yet, the people who run for office in these off-years make the local and state decisions that directly affect our quality of life, in some ways much more so than a distant federal government. The people on the ballot in November will have to decide how to fund K-12 education, now that the Legislature has been found in contempt of the Supreme Court ruling that the state is violating the paramount constitutional duty for education for all children. That is a tall order, and one which will affect the quality of education of your children or grandchildren and for all children for generations to come. Voters in Snohomish County will also elect its executive, the person who oversees and administers all county government activities, from roads to parks to public health to public safety and the courts system. There is an election for one of the Public Utility District Commissioners, for a seat on the Everett City Council, for the County Sheriff, and for numerous local judges. There are statewide ballot measures to reduce class size (I-1351), and extend background and public safety checks for people purchasing guns at gun shows (I-594). There is another initiative that does the opposite: it will roll back currently mandated background checks for gun purchasers (I-591). When you look at the voter’s pamphlet, it sometimes becomes hard to distinguish candidates and what they will do. After all, who wouldn’t want to “make school funding a priority without raising taxes” as Mark Harmsworth, a Republican candidate in the 44th District says? Or how about “We must spend tax dollars wisely, and meet the challenges facing Washington state by making education our top priority, creating jobs, and getting past the gridlock in Olympia,” as Mike Wilson states, the Democrat running for the same seat. To get a better sense of how these candidates will line up after they are done with their happy talk, it helps to go to their campaign websites. There you will find that Harmsworth is supported by the insurance companies, the bankers, and the NRA (http://www.markharmsworth. com/endorse.aspx ). Wilson is supported by the teachers, the firefighters, the Washington State Patrol, and the Sierra Club (http://www.wilsonforhouse.org/ endorsements/). Gives you something to chew on when deciding who will best represent you in Olympia. We have six weeks to election day and three weeks before ballots are mailed out. You can still register to vote online at http://www.sos.wa.gov/elections/ myvote/olvr.html until Oct. 6. When you get your ballot, don’t recycle it. Sit down, take a few minutes to consider your choices, look at the candidates’ websites and endorsers, as well as their sugarcoated positions. Take everything you read or watch, such as paid mailers from candidates or TV ads, with a large grain of salt. And then vote as you think makes the most sense to you, your family, your community and your state. Think and vote like the citizen you are!

compared with the same period in 2013. Burglaries fell 59 percent, theft dropped 24 percent, vehicle theft is down 30 percent. “There was an element of crime down there that was scaring people out of the area,” said Marysville Police Chief Rick Smith. The City Council enacted a Stay Out of Drug Areas ordinance, which allows the city to prohibit certain criminals from the downtown area or face arrest or fines. But Smith realized enforcement alone wasn’t enough to combat perennial problems, such as a notorious drug house at First Street and Columbia Avenue. Police officers who had been inside the house while responding to calls noticed that the house had no running water or electricity. “We had been in there and realized it was uninhabitable. In fact, it’s dangerous to be in there,” Smith said. That gave the city the leverage it needed: code enforcement. “There was a lot of undesirable activity taking place,” said Marysville Fire Marshal Tom Maloney. The fire district and city departments worked to apply existing city rules to the house, he said. The property owner was given time to fix problems. That didn’t happen, Maloney said. After a city hearing, the house was razed. Rebecca Read, who moved into a house on Third Street a few years ago, said she has seen a reduction in the number of transients walking through her neighborhood. “It’s looking up. I still

can’t let my son out by himself at night, and he’s 12,” Read said. “It’s slowly getting better, and after three and a half years, that’s a good thing,” she said. There are other houses in the area that have the city’s attention, said Gloria Hirashima, the city’s chief administrative officer. She expects they will also be addressed by marshalling the entire city apparatus to look at criminal activity, livability and safety. Crime and cleanliness have been top priorities for residents for years, she said. That led to the expansion of the annual Clean Sweep program into a year-round effort, with Public Works staff who are based downtown taking a more active role in noticing problems — whether it be drug activity, homeless encampments or aggressive panhandling — and reporting problems to the police. “Public Works used to

That, in turn, has kept undesirable elements away, and there has been a corresponding drop in the amount of litter, syringes, condoms and graffiti in the park, Ballew said. “Making the decision to place the facility there was not necessarily the best location to put a spray park, but the best location to change our community profile,” Ballew said. He passed along an anecdote from his staff, who saw two suspected drug dealers at a table in the park. “A mom and three kids came up and asked if they could share the table with them. They left and didn’t come back for the rest of the summer,” Ballew said. At the same time, two police school resource officers, Dave White and Chris Sutherland, proposed a

drive by and not pay attention. Now we’re paying attention,” Public Works director Kevin Nielsen said. That was the same thought when the city decided to move forward with a spray park. Originally the city considered other locations, but Comeford Park came to be seen as an opportunity to help draw a better element downtown. “My whole goal there

was simply to have the park downtown,” Hirashima said. “We tend to do more projects in suburban settings because they’re more pristine. Our goal is to get the downtown on the path to turning it around.” The results have been dramatic.

Smith is putting together a regional task force to combat property crime, which he said will give his own department more flexibility in combating other local problems. Over on Third Street, Darilee Bednar, who has owned 3rd Street Book Exchange for 25 years, said she’s still dealing with chronic burglaries, including one Aug. 11 in which thieves took nearly $6,000 worth of comics, her cellphone, a coffee maker, $75 worth of coffee and even the soap dishes from her bathroom. Suspects in that burglary, who also allegedly burglarized several area churches, were recently caught, but Bednar still sees signs of decay that she hopes can be fixed. “I have had people camping under my stairs. If I wanted to get rid of anything I could put it outside and it would be gone the next day,” she said. Read, her neighbor down the street, agreed that there’s more work to be done, and she keeps an eye out in the neighborhood. “If I see people going up the street at 2 a.m., or I see a bunch of kids, I’m going to want to know what they’re doing. I’m going to let the police know,” she said. She just hopes more people in the neighborhood will do the same. Herald writer Rikki King contributed to this report.

Happy Birthday: Deal with any domestic issues that arise. Ask for favors and determine how best to utilize what you have to work with and what you expect to accomplish. Organization is encouraged, as long as your put plans in motion. Clear a pathway to success. Your numbers are 3, 11, 15, 23, 30, 41, 46. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take action. If you arenâ€™t proactive, nothing will get done. Speak up regarding financial, legal or health matters, and you will bring about an opportunity to renegotiate a deal you arenâ€™t happy with. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Discipline and hard work will help you gain respect and a higher position. Do the legwork and find out facts firsthand to avoid anyone leading you astray or taking credit that belongs to you. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You have more going for you than you realize. Take advantage of an opportunity to discuss your ideas. Refuse to let a jealous friend or lover stand between you and what you want. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Get to the bottom of any situation that is causing you grief. Donâ€™t rely on others to do the work for you. Show initiative and turn your ideas into something tangible. ďż˝ďż˝ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Focus on what you have to do to get noticed. A little effort will go a long way and add to your popularity. You canâ€™t go wrong if you are helpful, understanding and fun to be with. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Check out

your current position and you will find a way to make improvements that will help you change your life. You will get ahead if you refuse to let others take over. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You have to divide your attention in order to take care of everything going on around you. Donâ€™t stop or relax until you have everything under control. Letting someone else take care of business will be your downfall. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): An investment or deal will pay off if you are prepared to wheel and deal. Be creative with your money and you will invite new opportunities that promise greater prosperity. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A commitment may be your way of keeping the peace, but if you donâ€™t want to honor your promise, your stress level will mount. Romance may be hot, but that doesnâ€™t mean you should jump into something you arenâ€™t prepared to finish. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You will feel used and abused if you have allowed someone to dictate what you can and cannot do. Speak up and face the music. Itâ€™s up to you to counter anything that someone offers that doesnâ€™t seem fair to you. ďż˝ďż˝ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Donâ€™t take a pass when you should be aggressively pursuing your goals. Participation will give you the chance to persuade others to back your plan. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Rely on your intuition to make the right decisions. Look over personal papers and consider what you can do to improve your relationship with someone instrumental in helping you reach your goals. ďż˝ďż˝ďż˝ Universal Uclick

States that the County Council bases its findings and conclusions on the entire record of the Planning Commission and the County Council, including all testimony and exhibits. Section 4. Amends the FLU Map of the GPP to reflect the conversion of properties from county jurisdiction to lands that are now held in trust by the federal government for the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians.

Except for one drive, coach impressed by how ‘D’ played against Denver By John Boyle Herald Writer

RENTON — As much as Pete Carroll preaches the importance of treating every game the same, the Seattle Seahawks coach couldn’t help but wonder if the excitement of a Super Bowl helped his defense take its game to a higher level. After all, the Seahawks spent four quarters last February pummeling what had been the highest scoring offense in NFL history, holding the Peyton Manning-led Denver Broncos to just eight points. Even Carroll, Mr. “We Treat Every Week as a Championship Week,” was curious if that kind of effort could possibly be replicated. He got that answer on Sunday, when Manning and the Broncos came to Seattle and for 59 of 60 minutes, the Seahawks again dominated one of the NFL’s best offenses, holding Manning and Pete Carroll: company to 12 “The guys just points prior to that did a fantastic 80-yard, 41-sec- job and gave ond drive that tied us chance to the score at the really play a end of of regula- dominant day tion. Prior to that of defensive drive, which saw football, and the Seahawks con- unfortunately cede a touchdown we had the basically because last drive that of two coverage we gave up.” breakdowns, the Broncos had scored nine of their 12 points largely because their defense and Seattle’s offensive miscues, most notably a safety and an interception in the fourth quarter. In the week leading up to Sunday’s game, linebacker K.J. Wright said of the Super Bowl performance, “I believe that was the best game we played. I didn’t see any missed tackles, I didn’t see too many explosive plays. We were on it from the first play to the last.” Yet this defensive performance, except one admittedly bad final drive, was even better, according to Carroll. “We played really hard on defense,” Carroll said. “I was anxious to see if we would play and look like we did back in the Super Bowl against these guys as far as breaking on the ball and running and hitting, and I thought we did better.

Sanchez’s goal part of strong second-half effort by Stanwood By Brian Adamowsky Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — Freshman Espy Sanchez punctuated a strong second half for Stanwood with the fifth goal of her young career to

lead the Spartans to a 1-0 road victory over Marysville Pilchuck in a Wesco 3A match Tuesday night at Quil Ceda Stadium. Stanwood (2-0 league, 3-0-1 overall) weathered an early onslaught by the Tomahawks (1-1, 1-4-1) before the Spartans found their footing just before the break in their fifth consecutive road match. That momentum carried over into the second half, and

Stanwood had the run of play leading up to Sanchez’s goal, a nifty quarter-volley that dipped over and beyond the outstretched arms of Marysville Pilchuck goalkeeper Emily Dunston in the 67th minute. Jaelynn Walker assisted on the goal. “It was a great cross from Jaelynn and I just put it in,” Sanchez said. “This win means a lot for us. We had a rough season last year, but we’re starting to come together.”

Stanwood’s strong start in 2014 can be partially attributed to the emergence of Sanchez, a super sub that comes off the bench to play a key role in the center of the Spartan offense. “She comes in and mixes things up,” Stanwood coach Lori Stunz said of Sanchez. “The girls are really confident with her in there and she makes the people See STANWOOD, Page C5

Addition of talented Scherbak excites Silvertips By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

LYNNNWOOD — Graham Millar knows exactly what the Everett Silvertips are getting in Nikita Scherbak. Scherbak was Everett’s big addition Monday, the Tips acquiring the electrifying forward in a blockbuster trade with the Saskatoon Blades. And Millar, who was Scherbak’s teammate with Saskatoon last season, had the fortune of witnessing Scherbak’s exploits with the Blades first-hand. “He’s amazing,” Millar, a winger who was acquired from Saskatoon during the offseason, said

about Scherbak following Tuesday’s practice at Lynnwood Ice Center. “Just the way he skates, he’s so fast and powerful. It’s real exciting for him to come here. “He took over our team last year,” Millar added. “The way he moved, he took over games by himself. It was impressive to watch.” Everett acquired Scherbak, who’s heading into his 19-yearold season, in exchange for goaltender Nik Amundrud along with first- and second-round bantam draft picks in one of the biggest trades in Silvertips franchise history. Scherbak led

FC Dallas thrives in area once called ‘the middle of nowhere’ By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

FRISCO, TEXAS — Seattle Sounders coach Sigi Schmid’s introduction to Frisco, Texas, came about a dozen years ago when the Los Angeles Galaxy was researching what kind of field to install at its new stadium, which would become StubHub Center. “I remember driving to look at (the Frisco High School) field and coming out here and going, ‘This is the middle of nowhere,’” Schmid said Tuesday. “And then when I heard years later (that FC Dallas was moving there) I still had this vision of it.” Schmid told the tale while standing on one of 17 soccer fields that adjoin Toyota Stadium, where the Sounders and FC Dallas play Wednesday. Nearby is a whizzing toll road that wasn’t completed when he first visited. On the horizon is a new hotel. The nearby landscape is dotted with restaurants, businesses and a multi-screen movie theater. “Obviously, so much is being built up around here,” Schmid said. “And they could see maybe that the demographic movement was coming in this direction.” The man who saw that before it happened was a man who had a knack for seeing things before they happened: Lamar Hunt, a principle founder of the American Football League, the North American Soccer League and Major League Soccer. At the time of his death, he owed two MLS teams: the Columbus Crew and FC Dallas. His contributions to soccer are immortalized through the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, which the Sounders won for the fourth time last week. And it was he who looked at the same “middle of nowhere” that Schmid visited, and saw instead the beginning of something.

TONIGHT’S GAME

Seattle at FC Dallas, 6 p.m.

TV: Joetv (cable) Radio: KIRO (97.3 FM)

Here’s how the decision to move from urban Dallas to suburban Frisco in 2005 is remembered by Dan Hunt, president of FC Dallas and one of Lamar Hunt’s sons: “My dad said, ‘Look, we’re very early here. I will be gone’ — his health was very bad at that point and we all knew it — but he said, ‘Your stands will be full when I’m gone. It’s just going to take time.’” That time may be nearing. FC Dallas ranked as low as 17th in MLS attendance in 2011. The next season, the team drew a franchise-record 218,636 fans. Last season, that record was topped. This season, Dallas is averaging 16,786 and on pace for another record. That remains about 2,000 per game below the league average of 18,880, and far below Sounders’ league-leading average of 42,238. Lamar Hunt’s prediction of full stands isn’t yet fulfilled. But the club likes the trend for both the franchise and for Frisco, which Dan Hunt says is on its way to becoming its own urban core at the northeast corner of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. Of course, it helps to have a winning team. Dallas’ 13-10-6 record puts it fourth in the Western Conference, nine points behind the league-leading Seattle, but eight points clear of sixth-place Vancouver. Dallas

has won six straight at home. The Sounders, meanwhile, are finishing a three-game road trip and looking to bounce back from a 4-1 loss Saturday at New York. “I think this a strong team, both mentally and physically,” said Sounders forward Kenny Cooper, who played for Dallas from 2006-2009 and again in 2013. “Obviously throughout the year you face some challenges, whether it’s injuries or coming off a loss. (The Open Cup) was really an important game and a great win, followed by a disappointing loss against New York. But the good thing is we don’t have too long to get onto the field, coming up against a good team with a lot of talented players.” A below-average crowd could be in the offing for this midweek match. But Schmid said the intensity of the Frisco crowds remains comparable to what he remembers from when the club played at the Cotton Bowl. What he has noticed instead, is a change of demographics. “It’s become more of a soccer/suburban crowd,” he said. “It’s become maybe a little less Latin in their support. There was always a strong Latin following when they were in the Cotton Bowl, and that strong, ‘more of a city feeling.’ ” Hunt acknowledged that, but added that “our model is to bring soccer to everybody.” And he believes that also can be achieved in Frisco. “Location-wise, timing-wise, yes, Dad was right: We were early,” Dan Hunt said. “Dad happened to be right about a lot of things. It’s funny to look back on his vision, his memories, his ideas, and you’re a hard-headed son growing up. And then you look back and you miss him and you cherish him and you realize how right he was about a lot of things.”

MLS playoffs will break for international games Associated Press NEW YORK — Major League Soccer will take a week off in the middle of its playoffs during the FIFA fixture period for international matches. MLS said Tuesday that its playoffs will start with conference

knockout games Oct. 29-30. The first leg of conference semifinals will be Nov. 1-2 and the second leg of the home-and-home, total-goals series will be Nov. 8-9. The league will then take time off as many players report to their national teams. European Championship qualifiers are

scheduled from Nov. 14-16, and the U.S. has an exhibition game at Ireland on Nov. 18. The first leg of conference semifinals will be Nov. 22-23 and the second leg Nov. 29-30. The MLS final is Dec. 7 at the home of the finalist with the most regular-season points.

NHL commissioner: No immediate plans to expand Associated Press TORONTO — NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said the league has no immediate plans to expand and adjust its unbalanced conference alignment. “What most people say to me is, well, there’s 16 teams in the East, 14 in the West. What’s wrong with you? Can’t you count?” Bettman said at a Canadian Club luncheon. “And I say, ‘Yes, I can count, but I also can tell time and we finally have all 16 teams in the Eastern Time Zone in the right place.’ “But you don’t expand just to fulfill somebody’s notion of symmetry. It’s a very important

business decision to make, and you do it for the right reasons at the right time.” The league listens representatives of interested markets, but Bettman reiterated there are no plans in the works to take on more clubs. A recent Twitter report by Howard Bloom of Sports Business News said the NHL would expand by four teams — Quebec City, Seattle, Las Vegas and Toronto — by 2017. “I know people think I have this list tucked away in a vault with cities lined up,” Bettman said. “We don’t.” The issue of expansion has particular resonance in Ontario.

A second team in Toronto, even in the Eastern Time Zone, could theoretically play in the Western Conference for the sake of balance. The Toronto Maple Leafs played in the West until the 1998-99 season. Speaking in a hypothetical sense of such an addition, Bettman said: “If we decided that we were putting a second team in Ontario, and the year the team was supposed to start, the Leafs won the (Stanley) Cup, that second team wouldn’t exist.” Expansion teams face challenges even when they have the market to themselves. Joining a market that already has a team poses an even bigger hurdle.

Saskatoon in scoring last season with 28 goals and 50 assists in 65 games and during the offseason was selected in the first round of the NHL draft by the Montreal Canadiens. With Everett, Scherbak joins his fellow Russian, 18-year-old center Ivan Nikolishin, in the lineup. Nikolishin is looking forward to hooking up with his compatriot. “It’s really good for the team,” said Nikolishin, who’s somewhat familiar with Scherbak from playing against him in Russia. “He’s a really good player and I’m really happy there’s going to be another Russian. Sometimes maybe I can speak Russian with him. “He’s unbelievably talented,” Nikolishin added. “He knows where to be to score, he has great skating. It’s really good for the team that we got him.” Scherbak’s acquisition was designed to address Everett’s biggest concern. The Tips lost a lot of offense from last season’s team, including offensive focal point Joshua Winquist. The Tips are excited to have a player who can fill that role vacated by Winquist’s graduation. “I think it’s good,” said Everett coach Kevin Constantine, who acknowledged he doesn’t know a lot about Scherbak. “He’s a proven WHL player with a high skill level. If you’re the leading scorer on any team, no matter what team it is, you have some skills. I hate to call him just an offensive player, because he was also at the top of (Saskatoon’s) plus/minus. We all want to talk about him being an offensive player, but I think we just added a good hockey player. “Without giving up any of this year’s assets, we acquired a very good player,” Constantine added. “That’s a plus, a nice addition to a hockey team.” Scherbak is currently attending training camp with the Canadiens, where he has garnered rave reviews for his performances. He was named the the player of the game in Montreal’s Red-White scrimmage Monday, and there’s an outside chance he could end up sticking with the Canadiens as a 19-year-old. However, conventional wisdom says it will be difficult for Scherbak to crack a deep Montreal team that appears to be a contender, no matter how much he dazzles. Therefore, he’s fully expected to be returned to the WHL. Constantine said he’s still unsure how he will deploy Scherbak once he arrives in Everett. “It wouldn’t be fair to guess on that,” Constantine said. “I think it’s important to communicate with Montreal and get some opinions from them. And most important we need to talk to the player himself. We always ask people when they arrive at training camp what position they want to play or feel the most comfortable playing. He has the right to be asked those same questions.” But however he’s used, Scherbak is certain to provide a jolt to an Everett offense that can use the boost. “I think he’s going to help the team a ton,” Millar said. “The last game was only a 1-0 win (at Seattle in Saturday’s season opener), and he’s going to help us score some goals. He’s going to help us a lot.” And that prospect has the Tips buzzing. “I’m really excited,” Nikolishin said. “It’s been a long time since we had that kind of player, who has so many offensive skills. It’s going to do big things for the team and it’s exciting to have him.” Scouting service rates trio The NHL Central Scouting Service released its preliminary players-to-watch list for the 2015 NHL draft, and three Everett defensemen were among the 39 WHL players listed. Noah Juulsen was given a B rating, which projects him as a second- or third-round selection. Carter Cochrane and Kevin Davis were each given a C rating, which projects them as fourth-, fifth- or sixth-round picks.

MARINERS | Update

Wilhelmsen expected to start Thursday

TODAY’S GAME

Seattle at Toronto, 4:07 p.m.

TV: ROOT (cable) Radio: KIRO (710 AM) Probable starting pitchers: Seattle right-hander Taijuan Walker (2-2 with a 3.00 ERA) vs. left-hander Mark Buehrle (12-10, 3.53).

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

TORONTO — All signs point to Seattle Mariners long reliever Tom Wilhelmsen starting Thursday’s series finale against Toronto as a replacement for an ineffective Chris Young. Wilhelmsen pitched one inning in Monday’s series opener, which effectively served as a bullpen workout. He started once earlier this season: July 10, when he pitched 22⁄3 innings in a 4-2 loss to the Twins. The Blue Jays are also planning to empty their bullpen Thursday by starting lefty reliever Daniel Norris in place of suspended right-hander Marcus Stroman. Manager Lloyd McClendon pulled Young from the rotation after he gave up seven runs, including four homers, in last Saturday’s 10-1 loss at Houston. Young has allowed 19 runs (17 earned) over 181⁄3 innings in his last five starts.

Mound blues The Mariners turned to Felix Hernandez on Tuesday to stem a fullscale breakdown in their pitching staff over the last three days. The previous three games saw (in order) Young, Hisashi Iwakuma and James Paxton turn in their worst starts of the season by allowing a combined 20 runs over a combined eight innings in blowout losses. The bullpen hasn’t been much better: 12 runs in 14 combined innings. Add a season-ending injury Sept. 16 to rookie lefty Roenis Elias, who won’t throw for four-to-six weeks after being diagnosed with a strained flexor bundle in his elbow. It’s been a bad stretch. The Mariners, entering Tuesday, still led the American League in ERA at 3.18 and in bullpen ERA at 2.58, but their rotation had fallen to third at 3.49. The league-leading numbers prior to the last three games: 3.04, 2.45 and 3.34.

Short hops When Kyle Seager hit his 25th homer in Monday’s loss, he became the 15th player in club history to have 25 homers and 25 doubles in the same season. Seager has 27 doubles. The last Mariner to have a 25-double, 25-homer season was Jose Lopez in 2009 with 42 doubles and 25 homers. ... Seager needs six RBI in his last six games to be the first Mariner to reach 100 since Raul Ibanez had 110 in 2008. ... Toronto starter Mark Buehrle needs six innings Wednesday, in what figures to be his final start of the season, to reach 200 for the 14th straight year. At 12-10, he has already reached double-digit victories for the 14th straight season.

Looking back It was 19 years ago Wednesday — Sept. 24, 1995 — that the Mariners continued their season-ending charge when Tino Martinez hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning against Dennis Eckersley for a 9-8 walk-off victory over Oakland at the Kingdome. Martinez’s homer enabled the Mariners to complete a three-game sweep over the A’s. It was part of a 17-5 closing kick by the Mariners that enabled them to tie the Angels for the American League West title. The Mariners won their first division crown when Randy Johnson beat ex-Mariner Mark Langston in a onegame playoff.

On tap The Mariners and Blue Jays continue their four-game series at 4:07 p.m. Pacific time Wednesday at the Rogers Centre. Rookie right-hander Taijuan Walker (2-2 with a 3.00 ERA) will oppose Toronto left-hander Mark Buehrle (12-10, 3.53). Root Sports will televise the game. The series concludes at 1:07 p.m. Pacific time Thursday. The Mariners then return home to close the regular season with three weekend games against the Los Angeles Angels at Safeco Field.

Royals beat Indians 7-1 Associated Press CLEVELAND — Rookie Yordano Ventura blanked Cleveland’s punchless offense for seven innings as the Kansas City Royals kept pressure on firstplace Detroit in the AL Central with a 7-1 win over the Indians on Tuesday night. The hard-throwing Ventura allowed four singles and threw a 100 mph fastball on his 104th pitch.

Designated hitter Kendrys Morales went into Monday’s game batting .206 with the Mariners in 53 games with six homers and 23 RBI. His overall 2014 numbers: seven homers, 41 RBI and a .218 average in 92 games.

DH Morales open to staying with Mariners By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

TORONTO — After sitting out three months this season rather than accept the Seattle Mariners’ qualifying offer, and making far less money in the end, Kendrys Morales is willing to bypass free agency in the coming offseason. “If it got to the point where we could work something out before I got to free agency,” he said, “I’d have interest in staying. I’m comfortable with the players. I’m comfortable with the direction of the team. “Yes, I’d love to stay here.” The catch is Morales wants a multi-year deal, which prompts a question: Is he worth that after a disappointing season? If so, how much money and how many years? “He’s a big risk,” said a top official of a rival club that is also seeking run-production help. “I doubt he gets more than two (years) after the year he’s had. “But if he bounces back, a year from now we could all be talking about what a steal he was.” Morales maintains his

primary objection last year to the Mariners’ $14.1 million qualifying offer was that it spanned just one season and, potentially, put him on a oneyear treadmill of such offers in the future. “I didn’t want to deal with that,” he said. “This year, since I waited so long, I don’t have to deal with that. “(The Mariners) talked about a three-year deal (for $30 million), but that never got to the later stages (of negotiation). My concern is I didn’t want to fall back into the qualification offer (going forward).” When Morales rejected the qualifying offer, he became a free agent, but any team that signed him would, because of that qualifying offer, surrender a high draft pick if he signed before the June draft. That depressed his value as a free agent. Morales remained unsigned until shortly after the draft, when he settled for a deal with Minnesota through the end of the season for roughly $7.6 million. The Mariners reacquired Morales in a July 24 deal that sent minor-league reliever

Stephen Pryor to the Twins. Results have been disappointing. Morales, 31, is batting just .206 with the Mariners in 53 games with six homers and 23 RBI. His overall 2014 numbers: seven homers, 41 RBI and a .218 average in 92 games. “Losing at-bats and getting my timing down has been a little difficult,” he admitted. “I’m swinging at pitches I normally don’t swing at. But next year will be a different thing. I’ll have a full season going forward.” The Mariners, privately, appear open to keeping him around. Boosting the lineup figures to be an off-season priority, and the looming freeagent market thins out quickly. If they choose to use it, the Mariners have an exclusive negotiating window with Morales through the end of the World Series. Eligible players become free agents the day after the Series ends. “I’ve always had interest in staying here,” he said. “This season (without the harness of a qualifying offer) makes it a little easier to make that decision.”

This was Felix Hernandez, who is generally recognized as the American League’s best pitcher and, at least before Tuesday, seemed an odds-on favorite to win a second Cy Young Award. “Just not sure (what happened),” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “He seemed to lose his command in the fifth inning for some reason.” The loss dropped the Mariners to 83-74 and puts their postseason hopes on life-support. They now trail Kansas City by three games with five games remaining for the AL’s final wild-card berth. “It’s definitely frustrating,” center fielder Austin Jackson said. “Obviously, we know the situation that we’re in.” The carnage came quickly and, seemingly, out of nowhere. Hernandez (14-6) had retired 11 in a row, and the Mariners had a 2-1 lead, before Dalton Pompey opened the fifth inning by launching a gametying homer into the upper deck in right field. “That’s what happens when you fall behind,” Hernandez said. “You’ve got to throw your fastball. It was up, and he put a good swing on it.” Anthony Gose followed Pompey’s homer with a slicing double past third. Hernandez then fumbled Josh Thole’s attempted sacrifice bunt, which was inexplicably scored a base-hit. Either way, it put runners at first and third with no outs.

Mariners starting pitcher Felix Hernandez walks off the mound after being pulled from Tuesday’s game during the fifth inning.

Ryan Goins’ sacrifice fly scored Gose for a 3-2 lead before Jose Reyes pulled a single through the right side. Walks to Bautista and Encarnacion loaded the bases and forced in a run. Still more. Adam Lind’s grounder to the right side found a hole for an RBI single. The Mariners then settled for one out on Munenori Kawasaki’s grounder to second, which produced another run. Toronto led 6-2. When Hernandez reloaded the bases by walking Pompey, the Mariners went to the bullpen for Dominic Leone. That didn’t work. Leone forced in a run by hitting Gose. Thole followed with an RBI single, and it was 8-2, before Leone finally ended the inning by retiring Goins on a fly to left. Just stunning. Afterward, even Hernandez struggled for an explanation. “Geez, I don’t know,” he said. “Fastball was not there. Changeup was OK. I made a

couple of mistakes. And the walks. I fell behind a couple of times in the fifth, and that’s what happened.” The seven-run fifth made it easy for Toronto knuckleballer R.A. Dickey, who improved to 14-12 by working through the seventh inning. He gave up two runs and five hits before the bullpen closed out the victory. “R.A. Dickey, he’s no joke,” Jackson said. “You’ve definitely got to give him credit. He had the knuckleball working, and he was keeping us honest by throwing the fastball and changeup every now and again. He’s tough.” The Blue Jays extended their lead to 10-2 when Encarnacion crushed an two-run homer to left field against Erasmo Ramirez in the sixth inning. That iced the cake. “It’s tough,” McClendon said. “We’re not playing well right now. A lot of things are going wrong, but we’re still alive. We’ll wake up tomorrow and come out here and try to win a ballgame.”

PA announcer Sheppard’s voice to retire with Jeter Associated Press NEW YORK — When Derek Jeter plays his final game at Yankee Stadium, Bob Sheppard will exit along with the New York Yankees captain. Nicknamed “The Voice of God” for his stylish, elegant introductions, Sheppard was the ballpark’s public address announcer from April 1951 until Sept. 7, 2007. Before Sheppard took ill, Jeter asked Sheppard to record his introduction, which has been used when the Yankees captain walked to the plate for home games. “He’s as important as any player that’s been here. He’s part of the experience,” Jeter said after Monday night’s win over the Baltimore Orioles. “Part of the experience of Yankee Stadium is Bob Sheppard’s voice.” Sheppard missed the 2007 AL division series because of a bronchial infection, ending his streak of 121 consecutive postseason games at Yankee Stadium. He was replaced by Jim Hall, his longtime sub, and Paul Olden took over when the Yankees moved to the new ballpark in 2009. Sheppard announced his retirement after the 2009 season and died in July 2010 at age 99. Jeter, the Yankees’ 40-year-old captain, is likely to play his final home game Thursday night, since New York probably will miss the playoffs. He said he had gone to Sheppard with the idea of the recording. “That’s the only voice I’d heard growing up, and that’s the only voice I wanted to hear when I was announced at home,” Jeter said. “And fortunately he agreed to do it.” Recordings of Sheppard are used to welcome fans to Yankee Stadium at times, but Jeter’s introduction will be its last ingame airing.

Cougars have bad memories of last Utah trip By Jacob Thorpe The Spokesman-Review

PULLMAN — For the dwindling number of Washington State football players old enough to remember the last trip, Saturday’s return to Rice-Eccles Stadium is a reminder of likely the lowest point in their careers. A 49-6 loss to a 3-5 Utah team was bad enough, but it is the game’s aftermath that lingers. Head coach Mike Leach called the team’s effort “pitiful,” said that not everyone in the visiting locker room would be invited back in 2013 and sent the entire starting

offensive and defensive lines to address the media as units, a gesture that visibly affected the players and led to Travis Long storming out of the postgame press conference. “Being up there after that game, it sucked, you know,” said left guard Gunnar Eklund, the only remaining member of that day’s starting offensive line. “Just because we didn’t play up to our potential, we didn’t give full effort, we didn’t do the things we were supposed to do and it hurt. It did, it stung and it still ... I won’t ever forget it.” The coach wants his players’

focus as far as possible from games that happened two years ago, back in his first season when the program was young and the buy-in was fledgling. During his weekly Monday press conference the extent of Leach’s reflection was to say, “This isn’t last time. This is this time so we’re just worried about that.” But his words after the game were clearly designed to have an impact on his players, and Eklund said they still resonate. The Cougars are coming off a 38-21 loss to No. 2 Oregon in which their effort was never in doubt.

“(I) thought we played extremely hard, I thought we took a step,” Leach said. “I thought we improved as a team.” This Saturday’s trip to Utah will require similar determination. Salt Lake City is a tough place to win as No. 5 Stanford found out last year in a 27-21 loss. No. 23 Arizona State escaped with a onepoint win, and No. 2 UCLA was more than happy to leave with a 34-27 win in a tight game. The last time the Cougars were there they did not exhibit the mental toughness to even have a shot at a win. Ideally, Leach’s comments after that game served

as a challenge to his players. Two years later, the linemen who were sent to answer for the team’s performance that day — Eklund and defensive lineman Xavier Cooper — have the chance to meet it in the same building where it was issued. “I’m excited to go back. I’ve been wanting to go back to Utah for a while just because we owe them one there,” Eklund said. “(That game) did stay with me a little bit. I’m excited to go back and play them and that game’s far gone, it’s not us, it’s not Cougar football, but deep down it’s still with me.”

5 Notre Dame players to have hearings by next week By Tom Coyne Associated Press

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — The future of five Notre Dame players barred from practices and games because of possible academic dishonesty could be determined by the end of next week. Head coach Brian Kelly said Tuesday that committee hearings into the case should be concluded by the of next week “if all things move in the manner that they’re hoping, and that they’re able to get through all of the information.”

The eighth-ranked Irish, who play Syracuse (2-1) in East Rutherford, New Jersey, on Saturday night, have been practicing and playing without cornerback KeiVarae Russell (who played at Mariner High School), receiver DaVaris Daniels, defensive end Ishaq Williams, linebacker Kendall Moore and defensive back Eilar Hardy. The Rev. John Jenkins, the university president, said at news conference Aug. 15 that suspicion about the players was initially detected at the end of the summer session and the case was

referred to the school’s compliance office July 29. Jenkins said if it is found the players violated the school’s honor code, penalties could range from an F on an assignment to an F in the course to dismissal from school. University guidelines state that honesty committee hearings are held at the departmental or college level, which could complicate things because the players are in different departments at the university. Russell is in the college of business, Daniels, Williams and Hardy are in the college of arts and letters with

three different majors and Moore is a graduate student. Kelly declined comment on his thoughts on the process of the five players being withheld, saying he doesn’t have an opinion “and I really wouldn’t want to share it publicly.” Asked how the process could be improved, he said the situation is “very complicated” with “NCAA implications.” “We’re probably going down a path that has never gone before,” he said. Asked to elaborate, Kelly said “a committee of this fashion has not, in my understanding, been

set up before.” University spokesman Dennis Brown would not elaborate, saying the university is not going to be commenting on the process. Kelly said he didn’t know about anyone beyond the five being involved in the academic dishonesty investigation and said he isn’t aware of any possible NCAA violations or of victories from previous seasons possibly being vacated. “I think I would have been informed of all those things, if we were in that kind of immediacy, if you will,” he said.

PREP SPORTS | Games of the Day

Cascade tops Jackson in 5 sets Herald staff EVERETT — Cascade’s first-year head volleyball coach Maddie Benson put in a whole new offensive system this season. If the results after three games are any indication, the changes are working. The Bruins improved to 3-0 this season with a 3-2 win over Jackson on Tuesday. Set scores were 25-23, 12-25, 25-16, 21-25 and 15-13. “Them being able to adapt (to the offensive changes) shows me how well they can adapt in any game situation,” Benson said. The Bruins have victories over Mariner, Lake Stevens and now Jackson to start the season. Jackson and Lake Stevens both took the Bruins to five sets.

“Both (Lake Stevens) and Jackson, they made us fight for it,” Benson said. “As a coach, those are the games that I like.” Cascade’s volleyball program has struggled in recent years, but the Bruins have started strong this year. Their three victories have already matched their win from the entire 2013 season. The Bruins fast start also has them thinking about the postseason. “Their goal right now, as I’m sure every team’s is, is to be one of those top teams that makes it do districts,” Benson said. The Bruins have just three returning starters from last season, making their quick turnaround all the more impressive. One

of their new starters is junior Vy Nguyen, who is taking full advantage of her first year as the team’s fulltime setter. “She’s extremely coachable,” Benson said. “That’s probably been the best thing about her. She’s also very smart. She sees the court so well and she knows when she needs to be aggressive herself at the net and when she needs to set up her teammates.”

Girls soccer Shorecrest 1, E-W 0 SHORELINE — Shorecrest scored its lone goal in the 32nd minute and the Scots held on to defeat Edmonds-Woodway 1-0 in a Wesco 3A South contest Tuesday night. “We played pretty good defense and we were able to keep

possession when we had the ball,” Shorecrest head coach Mindy Dalziel said. “We kept Edmonds-Woodway away from the ball and that was our gameplan.” Shorecrest’s lone goal came from the left foot of Sophia Viviano. Viviano played a pass down the right wing from Alexa Iacolucci and moved to the middle of the box before beating EW goalkeeper Kiara Towell near post to end the scoreless tie. Scots goalkeeper Kate Wiper proceeded to shut out the Warriors for the remainder of the match as Shorecrest improved to 2-0-0 in Wesco 3A league play and 4-2-0 overall. “She played smart today,” Dalziel said of Wiper. “Didn’t make any mistakes, didnt get left in no-mans land and stayed pretty calm back there. That was a comfort to us.” The Warriors dropped to 0-2-0 in league play and 3-3-0 overall.

Report: Suns, Bledsoe making progress in talks Associated Press PHOENIX — Eric Bledsoe and the Phoenix Suns have made progress over the past few days on a new contract, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The person spoke on condition of anonymity Tuesday night because the talks were ongoing. The report was the first indication of any movement in the talks between

the team and Bledsoe, a restricted free agent. The Suns reportedly had made an initial offer four years and $48 million, while Bledsoe wanted a maximum deal of five years, $80 million. But with no team signing Bledsoe to an offer sheet that the Suns would then have to match to retain him, the sides remained far apart until the past few days.

News that progress was being made in the talks first was reported by Yahoo! Sports. Bledsoe faces an Oct. 1 deadline to sign a $3.7 million qualifying offer that would allow him to be an unrestricted free agent after the coming season. But that move would be a gamble given the chance of injury and the uncertainty as to what kind of offer

around her better. Her scoring speaks volumes about her and what she means to our team. She’s the real deal.” Marysville Pilchuck certainly had its opportunities to get on the scoreboard prior to Sanchez’s strike late in the second half. The Tomahawks had two good looks at goal in the first three minutes of the match, but couldn’t do enough in the final third to beat Stanwood goalkeeper Kaitlin Larson, another freshman. Just under two minutes into the action, Jessica Moskowitz’s free kick was saved by Larson, and a minute later, she parried away an effort from Gabriella Crenshaw. Later in the first half, Cassandra La Brake picked out Crenshaw with a low through ball, but the ball got tangled at Crenshaw’s feet. It was that kind of night for the Tomahawks, who controlled possession for large stretches of the match but didn’t have anything to show for it. Stanwood began to establish itself in the last five minutes of the first half, when Bailey Post ran onto a ball at the top

Stanwood

would come his way after the 2014-15 season ended. While the Suns covet Bledsoe skills and his obvious upside, they have balked at giving the 24-yearold guard a max contract. Bledsoe has yet to play as a starter for a full NBA seasons and has twice undergone knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee, first in October of 2011, then again last January.

“I thought we played routes better, and some things they threw at us, the perimeter screen game that’s really just phenomenal for them, we just really eliminated it. The guys just did a fantastic job and gave us chance to really play a dominant day of defensive football, and unfortunately we had the last drive that we gave up. But I was really excited about that, because we weren’t happy with what we did the week before, and we came roaring right back against a fantastic offense.” As Carroll notes, it was a night and day difference between what his defense did against the Broncos and what happened on a hot afternoon a week earlier in San Diego, when Philip Rivers picked the Seahawks apart on the way to a 30-21 victory. And what those contrasting performances shows is just how fine the line can be between a good and bad day for the Seahawks defense, and really any unit, offense or defense, in a parity driven league. The Seahawks didn’t overhaul their game plan after a loss and they didn’t replace personnel, but they were quicker in pursuit and they made sure tackles after having 12 missed tackles the week before. That in large part was enough to make a huge difference. Throughout Sunday’s game, a common complaint voiced by Denver fans or just fans of exciting football was that the Broncos were being too conservative. Manning wasn’t taking shots down field, he was checking down or handing the ball off. Well sorry folks, that’s exactly what Seattle’s defense does to teams. With Earl Thomas patrolling the middle of the field, and with Richard Sherman and Byron Maxwell on the edges, teams just don’t take shots deep. Seattle’s scheme is specifically designed to stop those big plays. What Seattle

of the box and launched high. Stunz said that Tuesday night wasn’t the first time her team started a little more slowly than she would like, but the Spartans were able to right the ship. “Our main focus coming in was starting strong, but unfortunately that didn’t happen,” Stunz said. “We found our wheels a little bit later when we improved our first touches and started playing to feet.” After the goal, Marysville Pilchuck threw numbers forward in hopes of finding an equalizer, but the Stanwood back line stood firm. Jordynn Perkins replaced Larson in goal to start the second half, making her varsity debut for the Spartans. Perkins, a junior, was the varsity starter in 2013, and had a lot to deal with in her time on the field. She was aggressive on a Marysville Pilchuck corner kick, coming off her line to claim the ball in a crowd, and with under five minutes to go, she saved a shot by the Tomahawks’ Bianca Acuario that was bound for the top corner. Perkins tipped away another chance off a corner kick with 3:30 to go that was the last good look at goal the Tomahawks got.

will concede are short passes, and the Seahawks do so because they trust Thomas and Kam Chancellor and their linebackers to quickly make punishing tackles that limit the gains. Dink and dunk successfully enough, and sure you’ll get some yards and points, but you’re not going to score on big plays or put together touchdown drive after touchdown drive if the Seahawks are doing things right, not to mention that eventually the defense is likely to force a turnover or two along the way. In San Diego, those short passes turned into big gains. In the Super Bowl, then again last weekend, they went nowhere. The good news for the Seahawks is that they’ve faced three of the NFL’s best quarterbacks, and twice played very well. The bad news is that the Chargers served notice that even the best defense in the NFL can be vulnerable if it has an off day. “We have had tremendous tests,” Carroll said. “We’ve had just about the best three that you could throw at us, quarterback wise. We learned that when we don’t fly around the field like we normally do we can have a bad day like what happened in San Diego. We couldn’t get our game going the way we wanted to play it. It didn’t look anything at all like what you saw against the Packers or against Denver. We have to maintain that tempo. Our guys tried really hard, they just didn’t have it against San Diego. It didn’t show up. We have a real style that we play to. We have a real mentality that we play to and when we do it, we can control football games. I think we felt that throughout the Denver game.” Going forward, if the Seahawks can replicate that performance, their defense will again be the best in the league, and good enough to potentially carry them back to the Super Bowl.

Huskies’ D-line looks forward to trench battle By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — As Washington State prepared for a difficult trip to Stanford in 2012, Jeff Choate, then the Cougars’ linebackers coach, put on tape of a game the Cardinal had played earlier that season. Stanford’s opponent that day held it to 68 yards rushing on 22 attempts and 3.7 yards per play overall, handing the Cardinal one of its two losses in a season that eventually yielded a Pac-12 championship. Indeed, Choate noticed what the Washington Huskies did to Stanford on that late-September night at CenturyLink Field — where UW won, 17-13 — and cribbed some of former UW defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox’s schemes for his own team’s use. They worked. WSU didn’t beat Stanford that year, but played its best defensive game of the season, allowing only 256 yards of total offense in a surprisingly competitive 24-17 loss.

“We stole a lot of the ideas in terms of some of the things Justin did when they beat them at CenturyLink in ’12,” said Choate, now Washington’s defensive line coach. And it’s likely you’ll see some of those same ideas applied on Saturday, when the Huskies (4-0) host the 16th-ranked Cardinal (2-1) in their Pac-12 opener (1:15 p.m., FOX). Stanford, renowned for its physical, straight-ahead style on offense, returns just one offensive line starter — left tackle Andrus Peat — from its 2013 group. Despite that apparent lack of experience, the Cardinal still start three juniors and two third-year sophomores up front. It’s worth remembering, too, that as a result of the Cardinal’s “jumbo” packages featuring six or seven offensive linemen, even non-starters tend to see at least a little playing time earlier in their careers. And their beat-you-up philosophy hasn’t changed. Under head coach David Shaw, he of the 36-8

career record, it likely never will. That’s just fine with Choate and UW’s veteran defensive linemen, all of whom have played in competitive games against Stanford and appear eager for the opportunity to line up and knock heads with an outfit that prides itself on power. Defensively, that might be the Huskies’ strength, too. “Let’s go play in a phone booth,” Choate said. “Let’s find out who the tough guys are. So, I respect the heck out of that. They’ve found a great niche for themselves there. It’s worked very well. They don’t just play to that style, they recruit to that style, and I think it’s been really, really effective for them. I’m excited to see us go fit power.” That effort begins with 6-foot2, 339-pound nose tackle Danny Shelton, whose 7.0 sacks this season lead the nation. But his primary goal is typically to force a pair of offensive linemen in his direction, occupy their space with his mass, and allow Washington’s linebackers to tackle the

ballcarrier. “He’s a big-ole’ body that can get some knock-off on the O-line,” defensive coordinator Pete Kwiatkowski said, “and he’s got to have a real big game for us to keep those linebackers clean so they can scrape over the top to the ball.” Such disruption will be critical against a Stanford team that prefers to run the ball first in order to set up play-action passes to talented receivers like Ty Montgomery and Devon Cajuste. The Cardinal have run 190 plays through three games — 102 rushes and 88 passes. “I’m looking forward to playing against them,” Shelton said. “They have a young group in their O-line right now, but I’m not going to take anything from them. They’re still that physical team that they’ve always been. And honestly, I don’t really see a change from last year.” Washington’s advantage might be that its personnel have matched up well with the

Cardinal the past two seasons; the Huskies won in 2012 and lost a 31-28 thriller last season in Palo Alto. Linebackers Shaq Thompson and John Timu, UW’s top two tacklers in last year’s game, are back this year. So are Travis Feeney and Hau’oli Kikaha, who combined for two sacks in that game, and Marcus Peters, who had a tackle for loss and an interception. So there will be no secrets when these teams take the field Saturday. “They’re going to line up with a lot of bodies and they’re just going to run power, they’re going to run stretch, they’re going to run inside zone, lead,” Kwiatkowski said. “They’re just going to run their runs. You know what they are. They’re just going to give you some different formations to get to them. We’ve got to get aligned, we’ve got to get knockoff and we’ve got to fit the run.” And fit it as well as Washington and Washington State each did in 2012.

Bears’ Houston says 49ers’ Kaepernick did use racial slur during game Herald news services EAST

1125764

RUTHERFORD,

N.J. — A week after he caused San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin

Kaepernick to be hit with a penalty for using inappropriate language, Bears’ Lamarr Houston was flagged for the same violation Monday night. The Bears defensive end was called for the unsportsmanlike-conduct penalty after a 2-yard run by Jets running back Chris Johnson in the second quarter. The NFL did not make a rule change this season, but officials are closely monitoring action for use of racial slurs. Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported Kaepernick used the N-word last week when he was penalized. In the Levi’s Stadium locker room after the game, Houston told the Tribune

he didn’t hear anything. Now that Glazer’s report has been out there — though denied by Kaepernick — Houston confirmed that is what happened. “He was just saying inappropriate language,” Houston told the Tribune on Monday night at MetLife Stadium. He said Kaepernick cursed at him, including using the N-word. Asked if he was insulted, Houston said it’s more a “cultural thing.” Houston reiterated that he incensed Kaepernick on the play by saying “nice pass” at the end of a Kyle Fuller interception.

Kaepernick was fined $11,025 by the NFL. We’ll see if a similar fine is in the offing for Houston.

Steelers sign Harrison PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin called the decision to sign James Harrison “simple and easy.” Figuring out how — and just as important when — to use the five-time Pro Bowl linebacker, well, that part is a little trickier. The Steelers brought the 36-year-old Harrison out of retirement to give an injury depleted group some needed depth and a locker room in need of some intensity an added jolt. Harrison, who seemed to end his 12-year NFL ca-

reer during an impromptu news conference Sept. 5, will provide plenty of both. How quickly he sees the field, however, remains uncertain. The Steelers reached out to Harrison after young linebackers Jarvis Jones and Ryan Shazier went down in Sunday night’s 37-19 win at Carolina. Jones underwent surgery Tuesday for a broken wrist.

Panthers’ Tolbert sidelined CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers All-Pro fullback Mike Tolbert will miss at least eight games with a hairline fracture in his left leg. Tolbert was placed on the injured reserve/designated to return list Tuesday. Under that designation, Tolbert can practice after six weeks, but isn’t eligible to play until Nov. 30 at Minnesota.

Popularity of hard cider, once one of the nation’s favorite drinks, is growing at a fever pace, especially in apple-rich Washington

Easy mushroom and sweet potato turnovers are earthy and hearty.

Turnover new leaf this fall

These earthy, hearty turnovers work equally well as a fall gathering appetizer and an easy weeknight meal. And not just because they are a delicious and comforting hand pie that pairs wonderfully with red wine. These turnovers also are easily prepped ahead of time. Follow the recipe up to the point of baking, then wrap them tightly in plastic wrap and freeze. When ready to serve, thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes (or in the refrigerator overnight) and bake as directed. It’s great to have a pile on hand for easy dinner (thaw just what you need) or unexpected company.

Easy mushroom and sweet potato turnovers 2 tablespoons butter 5 ounces shiitake mushroom caps, thinly sliced 2 portabella mushroom caps, gills scraped out and discarded, then diced 1⁄2 cup chopped shallots 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 small yellow onion, chopped 1 small sweet potato, peeled and grated 1⁄4 cup white wine 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon 1⁄2 cup grated Parmesan cheese Kosher salt and ground black pepper 1 package (17.3-ounce) puff pastry, thawed according to package directions Heat the oven to 400 F. Line a baking sheet with kitchen parchment. In a large skillet over medium-high, melt the butter. Add both mushrooms and cook until most of the moisture has evaporated and the mushrooms are browned, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the shallots, garlic, onion, sweet potato and white wine. Continue to cook until the onion and potato are tender, another 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Stir in the thyme, tarragon and Parmesan, then season with salt and pepper. Cut each sheet of puff pastry into 9 even squares. Brush any excess flour from the pastry. Dipping your fingers or a pastry brush in water, lightly paint the edges of each square with water to moisten. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the mushroom mixture into the center of each square and fold diagonally to form a triangle. Using a fork, seal the 2 open sides of the triangle. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.

Cider back in big way By Aaron Swaney Herald Writer

hether boxed up in huge crates or strewn along the orchard floor, Washington apple farmers have always had too many apples. For years, farms would send their excess of the durable fruit to be made into apple concentrate or to be used as the base for other beverages. That was before the cider boom. About three years ago, fueled by an increase in people turning to a gluten-free diet, hard cider became trendy again. Apple farmers in the state responded. Some opened up their own cideries while others started selling all those leftover apples to cideries around the region. “We’ve always had a glut of apples; nobody can eat that many apples,” said Kevin Crisalli, brand manager at Chelan Gold Hard Cider. “The growing interest in cider gives us a place to use them.” Chelan Gold has operated a cidery for six years, but it was three years ago that it decided

to distribute its cider regionally. Since then it has experienced huge growth and its ciders are now in stores in four states. Crisalli said Chelan Gold has seen 112 percent growth in sales since just last year. It’s not alone. Opened a little over a year ago by the brewers at Two Beers Brewing in Seattle, Seattle Cider Company has tripled its capacity since it began. Joel VandenBrink, who studied in Michigan, another state cider is hugely popular, credits the discerning taste of the younger generation for the growth of the cider industry, equating it to the craft beer boom in the 1990s. “You have a generation of young professionals who are spending more time out and they want better choices when it comes to drinking something,” said VandenBrink. “If they’re going to spend money, they want to do it on something they enjoy.” Cider used to be one of America’s favorite beverages. Because of a scarcity of grapes and grains, an abundance of apples and a lack of See CIDER, Page D2

Cider taste test Ciders come in many different forms. Some are straight forward hard ciders with a light, tart taste and strong carbonation, while others are more like wine, dry with low carbonation.

Crushed tomatoes can be season’s biggest payoff in pantry By Cathy Barrow Special To The Washington Post

Nostalgia for this glorious summer is moments away. Schools are opening, bright red sumac lines the highways, the cool, crisp mornings signal autumn’s approach. If there is only one project you undertake this summer, this should be the one. Tomatoes will soon be gone, and you will regret missing the opportunity to stash some away for the winter. I’m not going to try to convince you that this is a quick, tidy process. It’s messy and hot. But it’s also ridiculously easy,

and the benefits are huge. Besides, it’s fun. Other than a few jars, no special equipment is needed: just a couple of big pots. The critical part of the process is properly and safely acidifying the tomato mixture. To guarantee a pH of around 4.6, add lemon juice or, my favorite, citric acid. For every quart you’ll need two tablespoons of lemon juice, or about two small lemons. Citric acid, used at onehalf teaspoon per quart, is a much more economical option. Citric acid is widely available at grocery and hardware stores. Start with one box of tomatoes: 25

pounds of big, round, sturdy field-grown tomatoes. Leave the yellows, purples, greens and other heirlooms for sandwiches and pies; they can be a little tender for this process. Roma, or Italian plum tomatoes, for canning purposes, are better suited for a puree, passed through a food mill to remove the sturdy skin and seeds. To keep costs down, ask at the market for “seconds” — imperfect but still worthy — and make sure to cut away any black spots. Above all, avoid mushy or See TOMATOES, Page D2

Trying to keep up with the Joneses I

n the arid Columbia Basin, a winery is crafting beautiful and affordable wines from some of the warmest and coolest regions in Washington wine country. As a result, few are able to keep up with the Joneses. Jack Jones, the patriarch of a longtime farming family, began planting wine grapes in the mid1990s. Now joined by his son Greg and daughter Megan, Jones has built his operation into one of the largest in the state. The Jones family now farms several estate vineyards on the warm Wahluke Slope and the cool Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley. In 2008, Jones hired Victor Palencia as his winemaker. Palencia, who grew up in the Yakima Valley and learned winemaking at Walla Walla Community College, was 23 when he arrived. Now Palencia oversees winemaking at Columbia River’s Edge Winery, a custom-crush facility in Mattawa owned by Jones and Dick Shaw. Here, Palencia and his crew produce more than 1 million cases of wine. Most is made for other wineries, though some ends up under the Jones of Washington label. The Joneses now have two tasting rooms, one in the Basin town of Quincy and one in Pybus Public Market in Wenatchee. Jones wines are widely distributed and should not be difficult to find. Here are a few we’ve tasted this summer: Jones of Washington 2013 Pinot Gris, Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley, $13: This delicious white wine hints at tangerine, apricot, lemon curd, lime zest and minerality in the nose. The pour brings as luscious entry of mango, pineapple and apricot before transitioning into starfruit, Gala apple and river rock. (13.8 percent) Jones of Washington 2009 Estate Vineyard Merlot, Wahluke Slope, $15: Aromas of cordial cherry, cola, black pepper, BeechNut chewing tobacco and baking

overripe tomatoes: When crushed or sauced, they have a thin and disappointing taste. The best canned tomatoes start out bright, firm and just barely ripe. Buckle down and crush the entire box of tomatoes. That will take a little over an hour, if working alone, but if you gather friends around you, it will take just a few minutes (so obviously you should crush two or three boxes.) Blanch and peel and seed and crush. Twenty pounds’ worth of the 25 will be enough to put up seven quarts of bright, tasty, easy-to-use crushed tomatoes. And with the eight cups of crushed tomatoes that remain? Make a zesty onepot barbecue sauce, stir it lazily and then put that sauce in a jar, too. Think of it. In your pantry: a

spices lead to flavors of cherries and boysenberry with sandy and long-lived tannins, backed by notes of cherry wood.

Cider: Growler fills OK

1140028

any good sanitation in early American settlements, cider was a very popular beverage. In 1840, William Henry Harrison ran successfully as the “log cabin and hard cider” presidential candidate, celebrating his down-home virtues. But as more immigrants came from Germany and grain became the dominant crop in America, cider started to give way to beer. The temperance movement of the late 19th and early 20th centuries was a death blow to the cider industry as many orchards used for cider production were eliminated. But cider is back in a big way. A good barometer of the burgeoning industry is the Seattle Cider Summit. Started four years ago by Alan Shapiro, Seattle Cider Summit had approximately a dozen cideries and 40 different ciders at its first incarnation. This past August, the summit had more than 40 cideries and nearly 160 different ciders. Right now the West Coast and other apple-producing regions are at the heart of the cider boom, but Shapiro believes that may change. “I think in the coming years you’re going to see more of the country catch on,” said Shapiro, who has helped the Cider Summit expand to three other cities, Portland, Oregon, Chicago and Berkeley, California. “Texas and Colorado are emerging states.” In Washington a couple of recent changes in the categorization of cider have helped the industry. In March, Washington state lawmakers passed legislation allowing growlers to be filled with hard cider at retailers, bars and taverns. Prior to the legislation, cider was categorized as wine and was excluded from growler fills. Another big change is how grocery stores have classified cider. As cider has grown, it’s continued to be classified as beer at most grocery stores, meaning it had to compete with beer for shelf space and budget. Recently though, Crisalli said some stores have started creating a separate classification for hard cider. “It’s a huge change for the industry, Crisalli said. “Instead of having to compete with established craft beer we can carve out our own spot in stores and compete against other ciders.” Aaron Swaney: 425339-3430; aswaney@ heraldnet.com.

Earthlings have created some amazing characters, Yott. I’m reading about a giant farmer named Febold Feboldson!

ATTENTION TEACHERS!

Sounds like a tall tale to me, Zott!

Newspapers in Education

About 150 years ago, thousands of pioneers began heading for rich farmland in Oregon and later, for gold in California. After crossing the Mississippi River they came to the wide, flat prairie we now call the Great Plains. From these Great Plains have come tales of a giant Swedish farmer called Febold Feboldson.

Read the story, then number the pictures in order. he first year Febold Feboldson settled on the Great Plains it was hot. And it got hotter every day: hotter and drier, drier and hotter. It was so hot that iron pots melted! When the streams dried up and Febold Feboldson couldn’t go fishing, he said, “Enough!” Febold sat down and cupped his jaw in his giant hand, and thought and thought — until suddenly he came up with a plan. First he splashed some water on a hot and tired frog and whispered in its ear, “It’s raining!” The happy frog croaked the news to his frog friends. Soon more frogs joined in the song. They got so loud that it sounded like thunder! Some clouds heard the noise and hurried to join the storm. Seeing there was no storm when they got to the Great Plains, the clouds went ahead and started their own, giving Febold Feboldson a rainstorm and a chance to get back to fishing.

GRANDPARENTING

Parents can’t dance around twerking act By Tom and Dee Hardie and Key Kidder

Dear Grandparenting: I need your advice about what to do with my youngest grandchild. Beth is eight years old. She has two sets of twins ahead of her in the family. They are 13 and 16 years, two boys and two girls. Beth has started to do all kinds of sexy show-off acts she picked up by watching TV and videos. I scolded her the first time but it didn’t make a dent. She was right back at it the next day. Even though I have made the punishments more severe Beth keeps it up. She thinks it’s all a joke. She laughs, squeals and prances around and “shakes her booty” as she calls it. Of course she needs an audience, which the older grandchildren conveniently provide. One revolting little act she called “twerking,” which consists of thrusting out her pelvic area while she squats down. It is obscene. I told Beth that this twerk thing is for jerks. Naturally she laughed it off. My granddaughter doesn’t do her sexy act when her parents are around. I told them about it and they told her to knock it off. But she hasn’t. How can I

break her of this lewd habit before she gets the reputation of being a tramp? That would really make my day. — Sue Doss, Nashville, TN Dear Sue: We’ll begin by reaffirming our generally low opinion of popular culture. Grandparents are hardly prudes. Many came of age during the sexual revolution of the 1960s. But some of today’s pop celebrities and role models seem to be in a race to the bottom, breaking all boundaries of taste and decency. Miley Cyrus (who popularized twerking), Rihanna and their ilk take it to the absolute limit with highly sexualized performances and videos that resemble stylized pornography. Impressionable young grandchildren who are bombarded with these images grow up way too fast. Given how pervasive such sexualized content has become, preventing grandchildren from being exposed is problematic. The best defense is a strong family value system that buffers grandchildren against adopting these behaviors, or believing they are socially permissible. But that’s not what’s happening in your situation.

Jason Isbell sweeps Americana Awards

TV shows bring more diversity

By Chris Talbott Associated Press

NASHVILLE — Singersongwriter Jason Isbell swept the major awards Sept. 17 at the Americana Honors & Awards. Isbell won artist, album and song of the year during the 13th annual awards show at Ryman Auditorium in Nashville,

Tennessee. Though surprisingly ignored by Grammy Awards voters, Isbell’s album of the year winner “Southeastern” reverberated through the Americana community and made many of 2013’s best-of lists. The Americana Music Association also honored several pioneering musicians. Loretta Lynn

received the lifetime achievement award for songwriting from Kacey Musgraves and Angaleena Presley. “The truth is we both might cry giving out this award,” Musgraves said. Jackson Browne received the Spirit of Americana-Free Speech in Music award, and Flaco Jimenez received

the lifetime achievement award for instrumentalist. Taj Mahal earned the lifetime achievement award for performance. “This music here, if you get this music, you can go anywhere in the world with it,” Mahal said. “For me, I play for the goddess of music. People ask me what I do and I go, deep Americana.”

By Chuck Barney Contra Costa Times

In 2008, when America’s broadcast networks unveiled their new TV schedules, only one show was anchored by a minority — and he was a black cartoon character voiced by a white actor. Six years later, prime time is undergoing a big, multicultural change. Leading the charge this fall is ABC, with several new series populated by black, Asian and Latino characters. Among the most notable are “Black-ish,” a family sitcom that humorously deals with issues of race and assimilation, and “Cristela,” a sitcom pegged to a Latina law student played by stand-up comedian Cristela Alonzo. And then there’s the sexy, twisty legal drama “How to Get Away With Murder” from producer Shonda Rhimes (“Scandal,” “Grey’s Anatomy”) that stars Viola Davis. Both women are black. Coming to ABC later this season is “Fresh Off the Boat,” about an Asian-American clan living in Orlando, Florida, and “American Crime,” a drama from John Ridley, the black writer who penned the screenplay for “12 Years a Slave.” Last week, Fox premiered “Red Band Society,” a medical drama starring Oscar winner Octavia Spencer (“The Help”). Next month, NBC will roll out “State of Affairs,” a CIA thriller featuring Alfre Woodard as the president of the United States. Why is diversity all the rage now? Because it makes good business sense, industry observers say. And because “The world of television should look like the world outside,” said Rhimes.

BOOKS

Best children’s book about politics is back in print

TODAY IN HISTORY

Finally, parents can get their hands on new copies of the best book about politics ever written for children. First published in 1964, “The Pushcart War” by Jean Merrill is a fake history of New York City pushcart peddlers who find themselves under physical threat from the increasingly aggressive drivers of ever-larger trucks.

Today Is Wednesday, Sept. 24, The 267Th Day Of 2014. There Are 98 Days Left In The Year. The Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah, Begins At Sunset. Today’s highlight: On Sept. 24, 1789, President George Washington signed a Judiciary Act establishing America’s federal court system and creating the post of attorney general. On this date: In 1869, thousands of businessmen were ruined in a Wall Street panic known as “Black Friday” after financiers Jay Gould and James Fisk attempted to corner the gold market. In 1934, Babe Ruth made his farewell appearance as a player with the New York Yankees in a game against the Boston Red Sox. (The Sox won, 5-0.) Associated Press

To counter a propaganda campaign the truck companies wage against them, the peddlers decide to show the public who was really causing traffic jams and an escalating number of accidents by systematically sabotaging truck drivers’ tires. What makes “The Pushcart War” so wonderful is that Merrill gives readers a portrait of politics that ranges
