MARYSVILLE PILCHUCK

‘I tried to stop him before he shot himself’

911 phone calls released

By Rikki King Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — The voice on the phone was frantic, but focused.

The caller was a teacher. She was in the main cafeteria at

Marysville Pilchuck High School.

A boy dressed in black had just shot students. He’d then turned the gun on himself.

She’d tried to stop him.

She needed help.

In a two-minute conversation with 911 made public

Wednesday, teacher Megan Silberberger described for an emergency dispatcher the chaos at Marysville Pilchuck on Oct. 24.

The recording, one of more than a dozen 911 calls released Wednesday, captured the fear and confusion in the minutes

after a 15-year-old student shot five friends and then himself.

The recordings were released

by SNOPAC 911, the dispatch center for much of Snohomish County. The shootings are still See CALLS, Page A2

Everett targets bikini stands The city aims to seize and sell the businesses that were used for prostitution and now are being subleased illegally, a city attorney says.

EVERETT — The city is moving to seize and sell several controversial bikini espresso stands that were once a front for a lucrative prostitution operation ran by a former exotic dancer.

Carmela Panico agreed to forfeit her roadside coffee huts as part of the plea agreement she struck with Snohomish County prosecutors earlier this year.

Panico was busted in 2013 after Everett police and FBI agents began investigating rumors that a “dirty cop” was tipping Panico off to undercover operations targeting her stands.

Darrell O’Neill, a former Snohomish County sheriff ’s sergeant, is accused of feeding Panico and her employees information in exchange for sexual favors.

He resigned not long after his arrest. His trial is scheduled for February.

Panico, 52, pleaded guilty in September to promoting prostitution and money laundering.

She admitted that she operated drive-through brothels that made her millions.

Prosecutors aren’t expected to ask for any more jail time for the coffee stand madam. In exchange, Panico agreed to surrender her claims to more than $250,000 that Everett police seized from her home. She also agreed to walk See STANDS, Page A2

Strange had been barreling down Rucker Avenue in a stolen pickup truck, trying to outrun Bothell police, a Snohomish County jury was told Wednesday. He ran a red light and plowed into the passenger side of Kamin’s vehicle, pushing it some 160 feet.

Stands From Page A1

away from her coffee businesses, formerly named Java Juggs and Twin Peaks.

Panico started leasing her stands in January. The city recently sent letters to the tenants, advising them that if they don’t vacate and surrender all Panico-owned equipment by Nov. 19 they will face civil lawsuits.

Two of the stands have been operated by a Monroe woman; three are being operated by Bambam, Inc., a company run by one of Panico’s former employees, a Shoreline woman.

The subleasing agreements Panico entered with the women were fraudulent, assistant city attorney Ramsey Ramerman said.

“Because you were intimately aware of the illegal activities and ongoing investigation, the subleases were invalid,” he wrote both Panico’s tenants.

“We are also aware that you and your employees continue to engage in the same illegal conduct,” Ramerman wrote the Shoreline woman. “Moreover, you have failed to comply with the payments under the lease, and Panico has given you notice to vacate.”

The city’s attorneys are expected to ask the City

Council next week to move quickly to sell off the five stands. There are some people who have shown interest “who we believe would be responsible owners,” city spokeswoman Meghan Pembroke said.

Panico employees engaged in sexually explicit shows and sex acts to earn bigger tips.

One barista told detectives she made $500,000 working for Panico.

Investigators dug deep into Panico’s finances.

She deposited more than $2 million in her bank accounts over a period of about three years.

She purchased multiple espresso stands, often with cash. Detectives alleged that Panico used proceeds from criminal activity to finance a “lavish lifestyle” that included expensive hobbies, including horses and boats. She also paid for several plastic surgeries, court papers said.

The profit margin at the Java Juggs stands at times was twice that of well-run, established coffee huts.

Before Panico went into the coffee business, she was connected to Talents West, a company owned

by Frank Colacurcio and his son. The Colacurcios ran multiple strip clubs, including Honey’s in Lynnwood. The Colacurcios were forced to shut down their nightclubs as part of federal organizedcrime prosecution.

Calls From Page A1

under investigation by the Snohomish County Multiple Agency Response Team.

An out-of-breath Silberberger was handed the phone by a boy who had already called 911.

The teacher described the scene, apparently before and after the shooter killed himself.

“9-1-1, we have a shooting, Marysville Pilchuck High School cafeteria — the shooter — we have many injured, Marysville Pilchuck High School.

We need emergency right away!” the caller said.

“Cafeteria, large cafeteria!

My name is Megan Silberberger, I’m a teacher.

Megan Silberberger.”

“We already have the fire department and the police department en route,” the 911 operator said.

“OK, I am in the cafeteria,” Silberberger said.

“I have the shooter. One shooter. Blood is everywhere. I do not see the gun.

I have many down.”

“Where is the shooter?” the 911 operator asked.

“I’m looking at him.

Still working. I need help.

I need help now. Shooter right here. He is wearing all black. I’m staring at him right now, sitting next to him. I need staff now.

Shooter right here. Black pants, black shoes. Black pants, black shoes, black jacket. He’s laying on other students. I need help.

“Down!”

Silberberger yelled, apparently to somebody with her in the room.

Crash From Page A1

She was 40.

Lawyers gave opening statements Wednesday in what is expected to be a two-week trial.

Strange, 35 is charged with first-degree murder under the theory that he caused Kamin’s death “under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to human life.”

Strange also is charged with second-degree murder. Under that theory he is accused causing Kamin’s death while trying to outrun the cops.

Darrow spent much of his opening statements walking jurors through the events that led up to the deadly crash. The jury got its first look at the pursuit route that spanned between Bothell and Everett. Speeds reached up to 90 mph.

“White male, black male, Hispanic male?” the dispatcher asked “Hispanic male,” Silberberger said. “Hispanic male. He is a high school student. I do not know how old he is. I tried to stop him before he shot himself. I do not know his name.”

“OK, you said he has shot himself?”

“He shot himself. Many are down. I do not know how many are down.”

Killed in the shooting were Gia Soriano, Zoe Galasso and Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, all 14, and Andrew Fryberg, 15.

All were shot in the head.

Andrew Fryberg’s funeral services began Wednesday; Soriano’s funeral is Saturday. Nate Hatch, 14, was shot in the jaw. He is recovering at home.

The shooter, Jaylen Fryberg, 15, died at the scene.

One of the 911 calls released Wednesday was from Sue Olson, the school’s secretary of attendance and discipline. Two girls ran into the school office, screaming about a shooting.

“I’m at Marysville Pilchuck High School, we have reports of gunfire,” Olson told the dispatcher.

As the school’s fire alarm groaned in the background, Olson said the campus was being put into lockdown.

Then: “Ambulances, ASAP!” “Do you have reports of somebody injured?”

“We do. I just had a principal run in, saying that we need ambulances ASAP.” The dispatcher asked for more information. “So you do have an active shooter in the school?”

“We do,” Olson

answered, then corrected herself to say she didn’t have current information.

“Do you feel safe continuing to talk to me on the phone?”

“I do, I’m OK, I’m in a secured area. We have our kids in a secured area.

Girls, come in here.”

Olson continued to feed the dispatcher information as she got it.

A few minutes into the call, Olson asked about medical responders. “Are they on their way?”

“Yes,” the dispatcher said.

Olson asked someone: “How many do we need?

Six. Six kids.”

“Six kids total?”

“Yes, that’s our initial report,” she said. “Oh my God.” The recordings were released in response to public records requests.

More are expected to be released by week’s end.

Earlier, SNOPAC released recordings of radio conversations between dispatchers and police.

A food services worker, Anne Haughian, called 911 after rushing students out of the building. She was upset — she couldn’t find her daughter.

The dispatcher asked Haughian to describe the suspect.

He was white with a black hat, under 18, wearing a black coat. “I think he had a backpack on, but I’m not sure,” Haughian said.

“It happened so fast. I’m sorry.”

After the shooting, students fleeing the cafeteria climbed fences to reach a neighborhood. A woman who lives on 54th Drive NE saw them gathered on the

street and asked a girl what was happening.

“She told me someone was shooting at the school,” the neighbor said in an interview Wednesday. She asked that her name not be published.

She asked a group of the teens where they were going. They didn’t know.

She invited them inside her home, five boys and a girl. The teens were texting with friends still inside the school. “From their conversation, I saw that all of them had witnessed it,” the neighbor said.

The woman called 911.

“I have several students at my house right now, and some of them saw the shooter. They saw it happen,” she told the dispatcher.

“Do they know where he went?” he asked.

“Do any of you know where the shooter went?

No, no, they have no idea.”

“Do they know his name?”

“They know his name.”

In the background, two boys said, “Jaylen Fryberg.”

On Wednesday, the neighbor recalled that one boy in her home was a senior and the others were freshmen. She credited the senior’s maturity with keeping everyone calm.

“These were young kids, in school for about five weeks,” she said. “I could tell they wanted their family, they wanted their parents.”

“I’m so sad for everyone that this happened,” the neighbor said. “I just wanted to hug all the kids and tell them they would be OK.” Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

Darrow will have to prove that Strange knew he was endangering lives but continued to race away from the cops.

Jurors were told that Strange crashed into two vehicles in a Lynnwood convenience store parking lot, including Bothell police officer Mark Atterbury’s patrol car. A Bothell police sergeant had called off the pursuit earlier but Atterbury picked up the chase again after his car was hit in the parking lot, Darrow said.

He believed what happened there was dangerous enough to reactivate the pursuit, Darrow said.

Strange’s attorney, public defender Donald Wackerman, urged jurors to keep an open mind and to listen carefully to all the evidence presented, particularly how police described the risks they perceived during the chase.

“There is no dispute that this is a horrible tragedy” and that Strange bears

some criminal responsibility, he said. But convicting his client of first-degree murder would just create more harm, the defense attorney said.

Wackerman said evidence will show that Bothell police disregarded their own policies when they began chasing Strange and didn’t back off, despite being told by their sergeant to do so.

A surveillance tape shows the circumstances of the crash outside the convenience store don’t match the officer’s description of Strange trying to ram him with the truck, the lawyer said. While prosecutors are now claiming that the chase presented a grave risk to the public, that’s not how officers were behaving that night, nor how they described the pursuit when defending their actions during the police department’s internal review, Wackerman said.

“No one involved in

that action that night recognized a grave risk of death, and that is what the state has to prove,” he said.

Atterbury was given a one-day suspension for his involvement in the pursuit.

The officer misjudged the situation, but that was not a willful or deliberate act of wrongdoing, Bothell Police Chief Carol Cummings wrote.

“I want to clearly state that the cause of this tragedy rests squarely on the shoulders of the suspect,” she wrote to the officer. “His actions that night showed repeated disregard for the life and safety of his fellow citizens.”

Since the crash, the Bothell Police Department has adopted stricter policies regarding when officers can engage in car chases. The policy changes already were in the works before May 12, 2013.

Man ‘fighting the devil’ in alleged assault

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

EVERETT — A Lynnwood man with mental health issues told detectives he was “fighting the devil” Tuesday night when he allegedly stabbed his mother and brother with a butcher knife.

His mother, 66, suffered four stab wounds to the back and was being treated in the intensive care unit at Harborview Medical

Center in Seattle on Wednesday.

The suspect’s brother, 31, also was stabbed in the back and taken to Harborview. Both victims had slashes to their hands consistent with defensive wounds, according to a Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office report.

Deputies were called to the apartment in the 15900 block of Ash Way shortly after 11:30 p.m.

A neighbor reported hearing screams.

The suspect’s brother told deputies that he was attempting to take him to the hospital for a mental health evaluation. He said his brother kept calling him the devil during the assault.

Their mother was injured when she tried to intervene.

The suspect, 28, offered no resistance when deputies called out to him in the fifth-floor apartment. He was booked into the Snohomish County Jail for

investigation of two counts of felony domestic violence assault.

The man told the detectives he was “fighting the devil” and nothing else, the sheriff’s report said.

Deputies had previous contact with the suspect. On Oct. 30, they were called to the same apartment because the man allegedly was yelling. They felt he posed a threat to himself and others. He refused help and fought

efforts to take him into custody for an involuntary mental health evaluation.

The man allegedly became violent and assaulted a deputy.

During the struggle, the suspect allegedly grabbed the deputy’s electronic stun gun from his duty belt. While he was being subdued, he reportedly struck a deputy in the face. He was taken to a hospital emergency room for a mental health evaluation.

Slope logging guidelines revised

Sailors prepare for Wednesday’s decommissioning ceremony of the USS Ingraham at Naval Station Everett.

Curtain falls for USS Ingraham

Fresh off deployment, the guided missile frigate is decommissioned

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — With a bright sun overhead and cold air blowing off Puget Sound, the USS Ingraham, a guided missile frigate recently returned from a seven-month deployment, was formally decommissioned Wednesday at Naval Station Everett.

It was a moment that was bittersweet for some, including Cmdr. Daniel Straub, the ship’s commanding officer for the past year and a half.

“She was my very first

command,” said Straub, who has served in the Navy for 31 years, working his way up through the enlisted ranks.

When under sail, the Ingraham (FFG-61) had a full compliment of 200 sailors and 30 officers, including two SH-60B Seahawk helicopters.

On Wednesday just a few dozen sailors stood at attention on deck while the decommissioning ceremony took place on the pier below.

When the Ingraham was commissioned in 1989, it was during the Cold War buildup of the military.

“These frigates may be small, but they are able to take a hit and keep on going,” said former Defense Secretary Robert Gates during the ceremony. “They are not being replaced due to extraordinary shortsightedness in Washington over defense budgets.”

It was that budget cutting that led to the Ingraham being decommissioned five years ahead of schedule, Straub said. There were rumors of decommissioning in the spring, but the official word didn’t come down until August that its current deployment would

be its last.

In the ceremony, Straub commended the professionalism of his crew and also listed some of the Ingraham’s accomplishments, including, on its first deployment in 1991, rescuing 400 Philippine refugees from the eruption of Mount Pinatubo while en route to the Persian Gulf, and in 1999 rescuing a downed airman from the territorial waters of an unfriendly nation in the Gulf.

The Ingraham’s most recent

OLYMPIA — A state panel on Wednesday took steps to ensure those who would log in landslide-prone areas do a lot more research on the safety of a site.

The state Forest Practices Board unanimously approved sweeping changes in guidelines used to identify unstable slopes where a dangerous landslide could occur.

Pages of new instructions, which took effect Wednesday, could require landowners and timber firms to gather volumes of additional scientific data about areas of planned timber harvests, to demonstrate to state officials that the safety of people living nearby is not compromised.

The revised guidelines are not binding. They are intended to assist those seeking a logging permit. Their adoption represents the board’s first significant action in response to the devastating landslide in March that killed 43 people.

After the vote, Dave Somers, a board member and chairman of the Snohomish County Council, said he was “frustrated it’s taken this long, but this is a good step.

It greatly improves the information that will be required to make decisions about forest practices on unstable slopes.”

Wednesday’s action drew praise from Peter Goldman, director of the Washington Forest Law Center. He has said the state should ban logging in areas of glacial deep-seated landslides like the one near Oso until all locations are clearly identified

ooks like the Grand Old Party got its groove back.

After this election, Republicans will hold a majority of seats in the state Senate for the first time since 2004 and boast their largest contingent in the state House in more than a decade.

“It was a good year to be a Republican,” understated Rep. J.T. Wilcox, R-Yelm.

The most stirring change is in the House, where the GOP is poised to pick up four seats and shrink Democrats’ numeric advantage to 51-47, its smallest

Certainly, the party benefitted from the political wave that defined the midterms nationally.

deployment was in support of Operation Martillo, a multinational operation to combat drug trafficking in Central and South America.

The operation resulted in the capture of nine smuggling ships and the apprehension of 29 suspected smugglers, plus the seizure or disruption of 11,937 kilograms of cocaine.

The Ingraham also helped capture a submersible craft with 2,400 kilograms of cocaine on board.

“We caught it with the smugglers, with the cocaine, fully loaded and before they could scuttle

it,” Straub said.

The decommissioning ceremony concluded with the officers reporting that the ship was secured, the captain ordering the crew to disembark, and the flags lowered from the mast while a band played “Taps.”

The final step was the hauling down of the commissioning pennant that flies from the mast of every warship in the Navy. The pennant was presented to Straub by Command Master Chief Dewey Torres, the highest ranking enlisted sailor on the ship.

The Ingraham was the last of 51 Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigates that were built, and was given the motto “The Last and

The ship will now be physically

decommissioned, which involves stripping it of useful materials and

technology, after which it will be towed to the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in

Bremerton and dismantled for scrap.

Straub is headed to San Diego next, where he will assume command of the littoral combat ship USS Gabrielle Giffords (LCS10), which is currently under construction and scheduled to be commissioned in January 2016.

The crew of the Ingraham will be reassigned to other ships stationed in Everett or San Diego.

“That’s what makes me sad,” Straub said.

“I’ve seen these sailors work together over seven and a half months of deployment.”

“They forged a lot of bonds together that you won’t find on larger vessels,” he added.

Monsanto settles with wheat farmers Logging Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — Monsanto Co. said Wednesday it will pay nearly $2.4 million to settle a dispute with farmers in the Pacific Northwest over genetically modified wheat.

No genetically engineered wheat has been approved for U.S. farming, but it was found in Oregon in 2013. That discovery prompted Japan and South Korea to

temporarily suspend some wheat orders, and the European Union called for more rigorous testing of U.S. shipments.

Agriculture Department officials said modified wheat discovered in the Oregon field is the same strain as a genetically modified wheat that was designed to be herbicideresistant and was tested

by Monsanto a decade ago but never approved.

Monsanto, based in St. Louis, said that it is settling the case rather than

pay for an extended legal battle.

The company will put roughly $2.1 million into a settlement fund to pay farmers in Washington, Oregon and Idaho who sold soft white wheat between May 30 and Nov. 30 of 2013.

Monsanto also will pay a total of $250,000 to wheat growers’ associations, including the National Wheat Foundation, the Washington Association of Wheat Growers, the Oregon Wheat Growers’ League

and the Idaho Grain Producers Association.

Representatives for the growers’ groups could not be reached immediately for comment.

The USDA said in September that it believes the genetically modified wheat in Oregon was the result of an isolated incident and that there is no evidence of that wheat in commerce. The report said the government still doesn’t know how the modified seeds got into the fields.

and the potential risks are better understood.

“I think the board accomplished a lot today by focusing experts on the right things to look at in these really dangerous land forms,” he said. “If this had been on the table at the time of Oso, things might have been very different.”

Karen Terwilleger, senior director of forest and environmental policy for the Washington Forest Protection Association, convinced the board to make the guidelines “interim,” so they can be tweaked in coming months should problems arise as they are implemented. The guidelines would become final next August.

“We understand the importance of dealing with this issue now,” she said.

Somers and Goldman, in separate interviews, said the board now needs to begin reviewing how the information is used by the Department of Natural Resources staff members who decide whether to issue a permit.

“This focuses the people in the field to ask the right questions, but someone can still come up with the wrong answer,” Goldman said.

The Forest Practices Board is an independent state agency that develops rules for logging on public and private land. It includes representatives of the state departments of Ecology, Agriculture and Fish and Wildlife, and of a timber products union, a small-forest landowner and a county government.

In May, it began to focus in earnest on how well rules were applied in areas with deposits of glacial sediment where deep-seated landslides have occurred in the past and are at risk of reocurring.

They wanted to pay extra attention to landforms where soils overlap with, or are near, groundwaterrecharge zones — where water soaks into the ground and replenishes the aquifer. Studies show that when logging is done in

Jail time recommended for Steven Powell TACOMA — A state corrections officer has recommended that the father-in-law of missing Utah woman Susan Powell serve 60 days in jail for failing to get court-ordered sexual deviancy treatment.

The officer says Steven Powell continues to put the community at risk by failing to comply with court orders. He filed a report last week in Pierce County Superior Court.

And this go-round HROC did not exercise as much control in the way candidates ran campaigns.

In the past, the caucus political operatives hired consultants to manage several campaigns. This year candidates in battleground races chose their own consultants, who in turn interacted with HROC as desired.

Such changes increased trust among caucus members and with candidates and donors, Kristiansen said.

recharge zones, more water is absorbed by the soil. Soggier soil is less stable.

Amendments to the board manual adopted Wednesday include a more-detailed description of the relationship between deep-seated landslides and recharge zones. It also includes more guidance on assessing past landslide activity on such a site and the risk of future earth movements.

In a public hearing prior to the vote, forest landowners and representatives of timber giants Weyerhaeuser and Sierra Pacific opposed adoption of the new guidelines.

They contended that the wording is too prescriptive and tantamount to regulations rather than guidance.

Complying will be costly, they said, because reams of additional information will have to be gathered as part of the logging application process.

Ken Miller, of the Washington Farm Forestry Association, said landowners support the “well-intentioned goal” of ensuring logging isn’t conducted in areas where science shows there’s a great risk of landslides.

He said he feared that an “overreaction” to the Oso tragedy was pushing the board to act too quickly and could wind up creating a “disincentive” for forest landowners to log their land.

But a slew of environmentalists urged the board to act, saying the proposed changes will vastly improve the state’s ability to keep timber harvests out of areas where they could endanger human life and public resources.

Kara Whittaker, of the Washington Forest Law Center, implored members to adopt the guidelines without delay in “honor of the 43 men, women and children who perished in the Oso landslide.”

Goldman, in his testimony, said approving them will allow people living in or near landslide-prone areas to “sleep more safely at night.”

Arlington: City receives award The Snohomish Health District recognized the city earlier this month for adopting programs and policies that promote public health. The Healthy Communities Award was presented to the Arlington City Council. Specifically, the award recognizes the council’s adoption of a tobaccofree parks ordinance that bans the use of not only cigarettes but also vapor devices in public parks or on trails. Lake Stevens, Sultan, Lynnwood and Marysville have similar regulations in terms of tobacco-free parks, but few cities have addressed vapor devices in their policies.

Lock up underwear Associated Press KODIAK, Alaska — An underwear bandit is actively stealing women’s undergarments in Kodiak. Alaska troopers said there’s been a rash of recent burglaries.

Hannah Clark told radio station KMXT that she began noticing items had been moved around in her home when she returned from summer fishing trips.

But she didn’t connect those incidents to missing underwear until she heard the news. Clark joked at least the thief has good taste after taking her $150 shipment from Victoria’s Secret.

Nov. 27, 1945-Nov. 3, 2014 Joanne Verkist Moore, 68, p a s s e d away a t h o m e i n Marysville on November 3, 2014 following a long struggle with cancer.

Joanne was born an identical twin on November 27 , 19 4 5 i n B e l l i n g h a m , Wash., to parents, Charles Verkist and Orpha Fox Verkist, and grew up one of seven children at Glacier, Wash.

Af ter graduating from Mount Baker High School in Deming, she attended college for a year in Portland, Oregon. While she didn’t leave college with her official “MRS,” she did meet her future husband, Ed, there before moving to Seattle and marrying him at age 20. They then moved to California, where their two children were born, and returned. They later moved to Colorado and returned.

Joanne made and kept friends ever ywhere she went, but her hear t never left the Northwest.

Joanne’s love for her friends was exceeded only by her love for God and she was continually involved in His service. She led Women’s Retreats and Va c a t i o n B i b l e S c h o o l s , organized and taught neighborhood bible studies, became a seasoned Ladies’ Bible Class and Sunday School teacher, and spent years working in teen and young married ministries.

She served as PTA president and volunteered in her children’s classrooms. At church and at school, her children shared her with countless others through the years who considered her their second mom.

Joanne also had a real ar tistic streak; she was delightfully creative and just had an eye for things. She taught cake decorating in C a l i fo r n i a a n d d e c o r a te d cakes herself for many years. She sewed extensively, created beautiful flower arrangements and enthusiastically decorated her home for the seasons, often with her own creations a n d a l way s w i t h h e r ow n vision. Christmas was her favorite time of year and snow was one of her favorite things, so it almost goes without saying that she never met a snowman she didn’t like!

Joanne loved people, warts and all, and people loved her back. Her beautiful smile was warm and infectious.

She was self-deprecating and unassuming with a quiet wisdom not always recognized and a deep compassion not always believed. We have barely begun to grasp how much we will miss her.

She is survived by Ed, her husband of 48 years; her s o n , G a r y a n d d a u g h te r, Linda; brothers, Leon, Edward and Charles; sisters, Kaye and Judy; and stepsister, Janice. She is also sur vived by four dear “ a d o p te d ” g r a n d c h i l d r e n , who were the apple of her eye, friends the world over, and a bear named Charlie.

Graveside ser vices were held on November 7, 2014 at the Marysville Cemetery.

Comet landing succeeds The Washington Post Throughout human history, comets have been distant, mysterious bodies. The hunks of rock and ice streak through the sky, streaming bright tails of gas as the sun warms them.

On Wednesday, mankind finally made contact with one.

The Rosetta spacecraft defied all odds and dropped its payload, a comet-sniffing probe named Philae, on a cold, speeding target more than 300 million miles from Earth.

Although scientists aren’t yet sure that the probe will be able to anchor itself securely, for now its systems are operational and responsive. This comes as the climax of a decade-long mission.

Swaddled inside the comet are the secrets of the early solar system, the elements present when the sun was new and the planets were forming. To study a comet up close is a cosmological dream, a time capsule like scientists have never laid eyes on. The black ice of these comets keep those secrets

preserved — but also largely hidden.

This one is named 67P/ Churyumov-Gerasimenko, an ancient comet that fell from a cluster of similar bodies near Neptune many years ago. Now in an elliptical orbit around the sun, it has been getting closer and closer to Earth with each

go around. But to really get an intimate look at the comet, scientists knew they’d have to get right on top of it.

Landing a 220-pound probe on a 2.5 mile-wide comet is no small step for mankind. The comet hurtles around the sun at a speed of 84,000 miles per hour and doesn’t even have

the decency to be smooth and evenly shaped, as comets so often appear to be in images.

Instead, the landing target is pitted and uneven, taking the appearance of a child’s PlayDoh impression of a duck.

Tensions were high in the European Space Agency’s mission control room in Darmstadt, Germany, on Wednesday as the clock ticked closer to the proposed landing window. At 4 a.m. Eastern time, the team watched as Rosetta successfully ejected Philae, giving it a push toward the comet. Without thrusters or an engine, Philae simply dropped toward the piece of the comet that scientists thought it was most likely to successfully land on.

Then, a sigh of relief — Philae and Rosetta made satellite contact with each other. Without that connection, the probe would have been functionally lost.

WASHINGTON — For the first time in the six-year fight over the controversial Keystone XL pipeline, both Houses of Congress will hold a vote on the proposed project, which has become a sudden flashpoint in a runoff election for a Senate seat in Louisiana.

The two lawmakers locked in a tight Senate runoff election, Sen. Mary Landrieu, D-La., and Rep. Bill Cassidy, R-La., seized control of the congressional agenda Wednesday extracting assurances from House and Senate leaders that votes will be

WASHINGTON — The military said Wednesday it would deploy 25 percent fewer U.S. troops to fight Ebola in West Africa than originally projected, but said the cut wasn’t evidence that the crisis was under control. Army Maj. Gen. Gary Volesky said from Liberia that once work had begun, officials found that there was more local help available than they had originally thought.

“There’s a lot of capacity here that we didn’t know about before,” Volesky said.

“That enabled us to reduce the forces that we thought we originally had to bring.” Volesky said the U.S. would need only 3,000 troops, not the originally allotted 4,000, to build 17 Ebola treatment centers that could treat as many as 1,700 patients in Liberia.

California: Rules for guns Counties can’t require gun owners to show good cause beyond the need for self-defense to get a concealed weapons permit after a federal appeals court Wednesday let its previous ruling stand on the issue. Most of California’s 58 counties had the requirement, and some were awaiting the outcome of the appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit before changing it. Other counties have been issuing concealed weapons permits under the new rule that requires only a desire for self-defense rather than showing the applicant is in danger.

National Transportation Safety Board investigators examine the SpaceShipTwo accident site earlier this month in California.

on the spacecraft may have contributed to its destruction.

Siebold has not spoken publicly.

Pilots and co-pilots typically agree in advance before making important decisions, said Michael Lopez-Alegria, a former space shuttle astronaut who now consults on commercial space flight. One method is a “challenge and response” system in which one voices an intended action and the other confirms it before the action is taken.

Lopez-Alegria said he did not know whether the unlocking of SpaceShipTwo’s brakes was considered critical enough to require agreement, but “you would never take that action on your own.” He noted that in the cockpit of a commercial airliner, the pilot and co-pilot call out and confirm an action as routine as raising the wheels after takeoff.

The Oct. 31 crash about 120 miles north of downtown Los Angeles killed Alsbury, injured Siebold and cast a shadow over the immediate future of space tourism. It could take a year for the NTSB to determine the cause, though Virgin Galactic CEO George Whitesides said last week the company wants to resume test flights as early as next summer with a replacement craft.

The eventual goal is to launch spaceships carrying six passengers from a spaceport in New Mexico. For their $250,000 ticket, passengers would get a fleeting feeling of weightlessness and a spectacular view of Earth from about 62 miles up.

Investigators have not revealed the exact altitude of the breakup, but previous SpaceShipTwo test flights peaked at about 10 miles, much lower than the height expected for commercial

flights.

While the full investigation could take up to a year to complete, NTSB Acting Chairman Christopher Hart identified the vehicle’s unique “feather” braking system as one focus. The craft is designed to shift its shape as it re-enters Earth’s atmosphere.

The twin tails, or feathers, tilt upright to create drag as the vehicle plummets to Earth — a more extreme version of how airplane wing flaps help slow jets on descent.

Alsbury could be seen on inflight video unlocking the system before the vehicle had reached Mach 1.0, Hart has said. The feathers aren’t supposed to be unlocked until the craft reaches Mach 1.4, or more than 1,000 mph. At that point, it would have reached an altitude where the thinner air would not have provided so much violent resistance.

Congress to vote on Keystone plan The Washington Post

Military to reduce Ebola deployment

The International Space Station is out of harm’s way after flying higher to avoid space junk. Flight controllers raised the space station’s orbit by a mile Wednesday. That’s because a small piece of debris from an old Chinese satellite was going to come dangerously close. Without the maneuver, the two objects would have come within seven-tenths of a mile, too close for NASA’s comfort. NASA said astronauts were never in danger.

He unbuckled from his seat and his parachute deployed automatically.

LOS ANGELES — The pilot of the Virgin Galactic spaceship that tore apart over the Mojave Desert didn’t know his co-pilot had prematurely unlocked its brakes, though protocol for the test flight required the co-pilot to announce the step, federal investigators said Wednesday.

Pilot Peter Siebold told the National Transportation Safety Board that he was not aware co-pilot Mike Alsbury had pulled a brake-unlocking lever before the rocket designed one day to fly tourists to the edge of space was done accelerating.

Seconds later, SpaceShipTwo began to disintegrate over Southern California.

Siebold was hospitalized after the crash, but when he spoke to investigators Friday he had been discharged.

He told them that he was flung from the vehicle when it disintegrated. He said he unbuckled from his seat at some point during his fall that began miles above Earth, and his parachute deployed automatically.

Protocol for the flight was to announce the unlocking, an agency spokesman said.

It is not clear if Siebold didn’t hear Alsbury, or doesn’t remember an interaction — or the co-pilot never indicated he was taking the action. The safety board plans to analyze flight audio next week, spokesman Eric Weiss said.

Simply unlocking the spacecraft’s brakes shouldn’t have applied them, but investigators have theorized that happened anyway and the resulting stress

held to bypass President Barack Obama authority and authorize pipeline construction.

A large showing of Democratic support for the pipeline could complicate the administration’s decision-making process, given the party’s dismal showing at the polls last week. Environmentalist allies of the president are solidly against the project, and have been doggedly lobbying the administration against approving the project.

But Republicans successfully used the president’s environmental and climate agenda as key lines of attack against

Democrats in several contested midterm races.

Acknowledging the importance of energy to the Louisiana economy, both Landrieu and Cassidy have championed construction of the pipeline, which would transport oil from tar sands of Canada to the Gulf of Mexico. The GOP controlled House has repeatedly voted its support for the pipeline, while the Senate, in deference the administration’s review, has resisted holding a vote on the matter.

The pipeline has been under review by the State Department for six years, which

has jurisdiction because the project crosses international borders. Democrats from energy producing states, like Landrieu, have joined Republicans in calling for its approval.

A Senate vote next week will allow Landrieu to say that she voted for the project, and put some distance between her and Obama.

Whether Congress can authorize constructing the pipeline has been the source of debate between Republicans pining for its construction and environmental groups who believe the powers rest solely with Obama.

A medical helicopter with a patient on board made an emergency landing after a bird crashed through two windows. An Air Evac Lifeteam spokeswoman said a crew flying out of Abilene reported the accident Tuesday night and landed in a parking lot between a motel and a fast-food restaurant along I-20. She said the bird struck a nurse inside the helicopter. The nurse was later treated for minor injuries. No other injuries were reported. Another helicopter crew was called out to transport the patient.

Tennessee: Baptist leader The Tennessee Baptist Association has elected its first African-American president with the selection of Memphis pastor Michael Ellis. The election during Tuesday’s annual meeting in the Nashville area was unanimous. Ellis, pastor of Impact Baptist church near Memphis, calls his election a “great day” for the convention and for the state. The Tennessee Baptist Convention is part of the Southern Baptist Convention, which elected its first black president, Fred Luter, in 2012.

Pennsylvania: VA theft A former nurse’s aide has been ordered to spend six months in home confinement for the theft of a gold chain and crucifix from a dying Veterans Affairs hospital patient. A U.S. District Court judge Wednesday sentenced Moscow resident Warren Wells to two years of probation, with the first six months in home confinement. Police said he removed the chain and crucifix from the neck of a 60-year-old patient at the medical center in Plains Township in December. The woman died several hours later. Police recovered the items from a jewelry shop where Wells had sold them for $100.

AROUND THE WORLD Turkey: Sailors attacked Anti-American protesters shouting “Yankee, go home!” roughed up three U.S. Navy sailors Wednesday in Istanbul near where their warship was docked on an inlet of the Bosphorus Strait in the Black Sea. A dozen or more protesters shouted at them, calling them killers and said they should leave Turkey. The protesters, who carried a banner of the left-leaning Youth Association of Turkey, threw red paint at the sailors and briefly succeeded in putting white sacks over their heads. The sailors, who were not in uniform, were from the USS Ross.

Rigging will cost banks billions Associated Press LONDON — Traders with nicknames like the “Three Musketeers” and the “A-Team” plotted over Internet chat rooms to manipulate currency markets for years, profiting at the expense of clients — and then congratulating themselves for their brilliance — regulators said Wednesday, as they fined five banks $3.4 billion.

Using profanity-laced banter, the traders coordinated their financial positions in the multitrillion dollar currency market, securing profits for those inside their circles. “YESsssssssssss,” one of them wrote in a chat message. “Yeah baby” and “nice work gents. ... I don my hat,” wrote others, according to documents of their exchanges.

Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase, Royal Bank of Scotland, HSBC Bank and UBS agreed to

settlements totaling almost $3.4 billion with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission, U.K. Financial Conduct Authority and Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority. The British regulator said Barclays remains under investigation.

“Today’s record fines mark the gravity of the failings we found, and firms need to take responsibility for putting it right,” said Martin Wheatley, chief executive of the FCA. “They must make sure their traders do not game the system to boost profits.”

Meanwhile, a U.S. Treasury Department agency announced it was fining three of the biggest U.S. banks — JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp. and Citigroup Inc. — a total $950 million for failing to prevent misconduct in their foreign-exchange operations.

Some $5.3 trillion changes hands every day on the global foreign exchange market, with 40 percent of trades occurring in London. The market is loosely regulated and dominated by elite banks.

Manipulation of the exchange rates has “a profound effect on the economy,” CFTC Enforcement Director Aitan Goelman said.

That’s because a host of financial investments bought and sold by major investors like pension funds are based on benchmark rates for pairs of currencies that are fixed daily by the banks.

With so much money flowing through the currency markets, a rigged procedure of fixing exchange rates can ripple through the financial system, the regulators say, and it also shakes people’s confidence in the fairness and integrity of the system.

The alleged manipulation occurred around the market fixes,

moments during the day when banks set benchmark prices for currency trades around the world.

Louise Cooper, a former Goldman Sachs stock broker who writes the financial blog CooperCity, said that what was extraordinary about the case is the misconduct occurred when the banks were already under investigation for a similar scandal involving the fixing of the London interbank offered rate, or LIBOR. The industry was well aware that a regulatory backlash was coming.

“I thought these were supposed to be the masters of the universe? Brilliantly clever individuals who were worth their multi-million pound bonuses,” Cooper wrote. “And yet they continued their behavior despite the clear signs they were likely to be discovered.”

Gas under $3 in 2015?

Energy Information Administration predicts drivers will pay $2.94 per gallon on average next year.

Gasoline prices are posted for passing drivers in Augusta, Georgia.

The national average has fallen for 48 straight days and is at its lowest point since December of 2010. That was also the last full year when the average came in below $3 a gallon.

EIA administrator Adam Sieminski attributed the lower pump prices to lower prices for crude oil and weak fuel demand.

The EIA lowered its forecast for global crude oil for next year by $18 a barrel to $83.

The global price of crude has fallen by $35 a barrel, or

30 percent, since late June and closed at $80.38 Wednesday.

Oil production around the world has been strong in recent years. A boom in the U.S. has pushed domestic production up 70 percent since 2008. At the same time, demand for fuels is growing more slowly than expected in Asia and Europe because of weak economic growth.

The U.S. economy is faring relatively well, but more fuel-efficient cars and changing driving habits are keeping domestic gasoline

demand low. The EIA expects demand to fall slightly next year despite the lower pump prices.

The EIA also slightly lowered its prediction for growth in U.S. oil production because lower prices will force some drillers to cut back. Production is expected to reach 9.4 million barrels a day in 2015, down from a previous estimate of 9.5 million barrels per day. Still, that would be an increase of 4 percent over this year and the highest domestic crude production since 1972.

VW to allow unions to earn representation Detroit Free Press

biz bits

Volkswagen on Wednesday told workers at its plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee, that it has adopted a new labor policy that gives labor unions the right to represent workers if the unions can prove they have enough members.

The policy provides labor unions with three possible tiers of representation with increased rights at each level.

The levels go from 15 percent to 30 percent and top out at 45 percent. The membership levels must be audited and verified by an outside party selected by Volkswagen.

The UAW has said its local chapter, UAW Local 42, already represents about 750 Volkswagen workers, or about 50 percent of

Automakers agree on car privacy rules Nineteen automakers accounting for most of the passenger cars and trucks sold in the U.S. have signed onto a set of principles they say will protect motorists’ privacy in an era when computerized cars pass along more information about their drivers than many motorists realize.

The principles were delivered in a letter Wednesday to the Federal Trade Commission, which has the authority to force corporations to live up to their promises to consumers. Industry officials say they want to assure their customers that the information that their cars stream back to automakers or that is downloaded from the vehicle’s computers won’t be handed over to authorities without a court order, sold to insurance companies or used to bombard them with ads for pizza parlors, gas stations or other businesses they drive past, without their permission.

Plane drone sightings increase dramatically More than a million small drone aircraft have been sold in the past few years, and a growing number of them are turning up in the skies near airports and airliners, posing a risk of collision.

Reports of drone sightings near other planes, helicopters and airfields are reaching the government almost daily, say federal and industry officials. It’s a sharp increase from just two years ago when such reports were still unusual.

Many of the reports are filed with the Federal Aviation Administration by airline pilots. But other pilots, airport officials and local officials often file reports as well.

Associated Press NEW YORK — The average price of gasoline will be below $3 a gallon in 2015, the Energy Department predicted Wednesday. If the sharply lower estimate holds true, U.S. consumers will save $61 billion on gas compared with this year.

Economists say lower gasoline prices act like a tax cut, leaving more money for consumers to spend on other things. Consumer spending is 70 percent of the U.S. economy.

The department’s Energy Information Administration predicted in its most recent short-term energy outlook that drivers will pay $2.94 per gallon on average in 2015, 45 cents lower than this year.

Based on expected gasoline consumption, that’s a savings of $60.9 billion.

Drivers are now paying $2.92 per gallon on average across the nation, according to AAA, but late fall is often when the price of gas hits its low for the year. The EIA is now saying that these prices aren’t just a low point, but instead will be the norm next year.

the automaker’s hourly workers at the Chattanooga plant.

The policy is a victory for the UAW, which has tried, and failed, many times in recent decades to win representation at assembly plants in the South owned by German and Asian automakers.

Still, in Chattanooga, a competing organization that calls itself American Council of Employees also is seeking to be recognized

by Volkswagen and plants to file certification papers with the National Labor Relations Board.

It has not disclosed how many members it represents.

According to Volkswagen’s policy, the purpose of the policy is: “to allow eligible organizations the opportunity to engage in constructive dialogue with Volkswagen and its employees.”

Orca protests hit profits at SeaWorld SeaWorld Entertainment slid as much as 13 percent after third-quarter results fell more than analysts estimated, hurt by shrinking attendance during the peak season.

SeaWorld, criticized by animal-rights groups over its use of killer whales in shows, slumped Wednesday to an intraday record low of $16.16.

The stock plunged 33 percent on Aug. 13 after the company posted lower sales and acknowledged the impact of the protests. The theme-park operator attracted 8.4 million visitors in the quarter, a half million less than a year earlier.

Discount concerns cut Macy’s outlook Macy’s cut its profit outlook after a sales shortfall in its latest quarter, suggesting that shoppers can expect another discount-laden holiday shopping season. Still, the department store’s third-quarter earnings beat Wall Street’s estimate, and shares rose.

Macy’s, a standout among its peers throughout the economic recovery, is the first of the major retailers to report third-quarter results. How much shoppers spent during the period, which runs from August through October, hints at how much they’ll be buying during the holiday shopping season.

THE DAY ON WALL STREET Big banks weighed on the stock market Wednesday, tugging major indexes back from record highs.

Regulators from the U.S., Switzerland and the U.K. fined five major banks a total of $3.4 billion for conspiring to manipulate foreign-currency trading.

The news drove down bank stocks in Europe and U.S. JPMorgan Chase fell more than 1 percent, the biggest drop in the Dow. “The fines from the watchdogs took some of the wind out of the market,” said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Rockwell Global Capital Management.

How fast food chains target black kids

By Roberto Ferdman The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — It’s hard to blame people for craving fast food when they are inundated with advertising from such a young age. But what’s disturbing is just how far fast food companies will go to target kids from groups already more likely to suffer from obesity — including the

poor, rural Americans and black Americans.

In a new study, a team of researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago and Arizona State University found that fast food chains in predominantly black neighborhoods were more than 60 percent more likely to advertise to children than in predominantly white neighborhoods. The researchers also found that

. 21! c e D n o g n i m Co

fast food restaurants in middle- and low-income areas tended to direct their ads toward children more often than those in high-income neighborhoods, and those in rural communities tended to market their products to kids more often than those in more urban settings “Fast food restaurants in black neighborhoods have significantly higher odds of using kids’ meal toy displays

to market their products to children compared to restaurants in white neighborhoods,” said Punam Ohri-Vachaspati, the lead author of the study. “The associations we observe are troubling because we know that black children are at higher risk for consuming unhealthy diets including fast food, and have higher prevalence of obesity.”

The Burger Kings and

McDonald’s of America have long known that dangling toys and other paraphernalia before children is a choice way to keep them coming back — or, at the very least, asking their parents to return.

But the study, which analyzed data from more than 6,700 restaurants around the country, has finally sketched out precisely how this is happening.

DENVER — The booming new marijuana industry has an image problem. Not with government officials and the public — but with other businesses.

From crime fears to smell complaints, new marijuana retailers and growers face suspicion and sometimes open antagonism from their commercial neighbors, especially in Denver, which now has 200 marijuana retailers and dozens of pot growing and manufacturing facilities.

The strife went public last week along a once-forlorn stretch of highway south of downtown Denver now sprinkled with marijuana shops.

About two dozen pot shops along this stretch of Broadway, often dubbed “Broadsterdam,” had a marketing idea for the upcoming holiday shopping season. Why not join forces with neighboring antique shops to market the whole area as “The Green Mile”?

The pot shops called a meeting, expecting an enthusiastic response from

KRISTEN WYATT / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Marijuana dispensary owner Tim Cullen talks to owners of antique stores along South Broadway in Denver about his proposal to rename the stretch of road “The Green Mile.”

neighboring businesses that have seen boarded-up storefronts replaced with bustling pot shops with lines out the door. Instead, the suggestion unleashed a torrent of anger from the antique shops.

“We don’t want to work with you,” said James Neisler, owner of Heidelberg Antiques. “Your customers, they’re the long-haired stinky types. They go around touching everything and they don’t buy anything.”

The meeting went downhill from there. Despite the

support of some neighbors — one quipped that stoned shoppers carrying lots of cash have been great for business — the proposal exposed simmering antagonism. The pot shops feel they’ve revitalized a blighted neighborhood.

Some tenants say pot has ruined a neighborhood lined with storefronts that date to the 1940s.

It’s a clash that is playing out in other communities in Colorado and Washington that allow marijuana businesses — and could

stretch to other states now that Alaska, Oregon and Washington, D.C., have all legalized recreational pot.

The central-Colorado city of Manitou Springs voted last week on whether to kick out recreational pot shops. The ballot measure was proposed by other business owners who complained a dispensary was harming the tourist town’s family-friendly reputation.

The ballot measure failed.

Jason Warf, executive director of the Southern Colorado Cannabis Council, said his 30 or so members frequently clash with other businesses. In fact, his group was formed when existing chambers of commerce rejected cannabis-related members.

“They should accept us and embrace us for what we’ve done, the jobs we’ve created and the tourists we bring,” Warf said. “And yet some mainstream business organizations are still demonizing cannabis.”

Warf said he spends much of his time negotiating smell complaints and other gripes between his members and their neighbors.

IN OUR VIEW | Perception and reality

Time to mind facts, not fear We need a reminder of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s wisdom: “So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself — nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.” Because fear these days comes from so many corners, a product of ignorance.

In a comparison of 14 industrialized countries, the United States trailed only Italy in the pollsters’ index of ignorance about the realities of modern life, according to a new global survey by Ipsos MORI . The report is called: “Perceptions are not reality: Things the world gets wrong.”

Reuters reports some of things Americans get wrong

include: ■■Significantly missing the mark on the proportion of the population that is comprised of immigrants, guessing 32 percent against the true number of 13 percent.

■■Overestimating the number of Muslims in the population, 15 percent versus only 1 percent in reality, and underestimate the number of Christians, 56 percent to 78 percent.

■■Overestimating the percent of U.S. girls aged 15-19 who give birth each year at 24 percent, while the real number is 3 percent.

We see examples of this kind of “flawed perception” every day: fears about Ebola outweighing the real risks we face, including death by

accident (cars or otherwise), homicide, suicide, or drug overdose. Otherwise educated parents fear the risks of vaccinations rather than the diseases they prevent.

In 2011, when the giant earthquake and tsunami devastated Japan, and workers at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant were hospitalized for radiation exposure inside the facility, it was Americans who scrambled to purchase potassium iodide tablets, despite warnings from local, state and federal health officials that there was no reason to do so.

The EPA repeated at the time, to no avail, that Americans are exposed to more doses of radiation daily that are 100,000 times higher than levels that were coming from Japan.

Only people in the affected area of Japan were advised to take the medication that Americans were buying up, which works only to protect the thyroid. Health officials repeated: People taking the medication for no reason risk harming their thyroid gland.

No matter; U.S. pharmacies sold out of potassium iodide.

In order to fight fear and ignorance, we need the “STEM” education everyone is always referencing. People need to know math in order to figure percentages. They need science and math so they can understand, despite what headlines and commentators might say, what poses a real risk to their welfare, and our country’s. Without critical thinking, fear will win out.

■■STREETS INITIATIVE

■■MENTALLY ILL

Regarding the article, “Everett ready to take its cleanup plans to the streets”: Thank you for publishing the work and findings of the Community Streets Initiative task force, which demonstrates the need for change with regard to services provided for addressing homelessness, mental health, and other issues that require our immediate attention. Many are unaware of the need that surrounds these issues, and one of the first step toward change is educating the public.

It is critical to bolster support in lobbying Olympia for funding, enhancing the quality of social services and advocating for individuals who have a multitude of unmet basic needs.

It is important to understand the prevalence of the issues being addressed by this task force. According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, at any point in time upward of 600,000 individuals in the United States are homeless.

Additionally, according to the Centers for Disease Control, we know that roughly 25 percent of the U.S. population has experienced a mental illness in the past year. These staggering statistics illustrate national problems that can begin to be addressed at a local level.

By keeping the public aware of the work being doing by this task force, accountability is created. Please continue to publish updates on the Community Streets Initiative and provide resources for the public to become engaged. These issues cannot be swept under the rug, and city-wide awareness and involvement can help prevent this from happening.

Regarding the article, “Lynnwood man accused of injuring 3 in sword attack”: It is mentioned that Ayling told officers that he “is bipolar and was suicidal…” While it may be true that Ayling told this to officers, is his bipolar disorder relevant to his sensational crime? It may be relevant, and it may not be — the article doesn’t say. If more information was given about his condition and how that led to the shocking assault, it would bear mention in the article, but as it now stands it only serves to further heighten the public’s misplaced fear of the mentally ill.[ii] A person affected by mental illness is much more likely to be a victim of violence than to perpetrate it[i], and only a small minority of violent people are mentally ill.

Despite this, the association of mental illness with violence continues which increases stigmatization of the mentally ill. If Ayling’s bipolar disorder directly contributed to the crime, report on how it did — if it did not, it shouldn’t be included.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■EVERETT

Changes needed on city budget After watching the Everett City Council meeting last Wednesday concerning the budget, it seems the administration is stuck with keeping things “status quo.” I see a lot of “smoke and mirrors” concerning the 50 staff positions the city has held vacant for quite a while. Why these positions are not clearly eliminated so an understanding of funds available is apparent is a mystery.

Further, the 15 positions that will be “eliminated” have been vacant for the past year, so there are no real savings to be gained.

Other positions are moved to non-general-fund departments, but no net savings to taxpayers will be realized.

Why is our city administration looking at one year at a time and not five years, like any well run business would do? We were informed that there are continuing deficits into the future. Where is the restructuring and reductions?

How much more in taxes and fees will residents endure?!

Council members should not rubber stamp this budget.

City administration should be pressed to provide a plan to pull future budgets into the black with real staffing forecasts and meaningful programmatic and operational changes. None of the hard decisions are being made and it is clear from this year’s budget that the mayor intends to kick the can down the road again.

We deserve a check and balance system where the people we elect have input and decision making powers. What I see is more of the same: a handtied City Council which rubber stamps a budget created by the mayor and his subordinates.

■■HONORING VETERANS

Must do more for vets after war Salute to all our vets and their families who give up so much.

I urge you to honor Tomas Young, the Iraq war veteranturned-activist who died on Monday, and watch the movie “Body of War,” the documentary about him, and the interview on Democracy Now, about his service, and all his fellow brothers and sisters who come back damaged to an uncaring public and leaders who send them off to fight questionable wars based on lies and fear.

We ignore our vets and hide the damage of the wars we send them to. Our conservative leaders and public, who wrap themselves in the flag,

Have your say Include your name, address and daytime phone number.

E-mail: letters@heraldnet.com Mail: Letters section The The Daily Herald P.O. Box 930 Everett, WA 98206

are happy to fund war but not the aftermath.

While Dwight Eisenhower warned us about the “Military Industrial Complex,” our corporations profiteer from endless war. The 2014 Estimated Discretionary Spending budget breaks it down thus: 57 percent Department of Defense, 5.5 percent veterans benefits, 6 percent education, 6 percent government, 5.5 percent housing and community, 5 percent health, 3.5 percent international affairs, 3 percent energy and environment, 2.5 percent science, 2.5 percent labor, 2.5 percent transportation, 1 percent food and agriculture. To what level could we improve our country, 47th in the world, if we spent just half of the 57 percent on education and housing?

Most of all, my sorrow goes out to the families of those 22 veteran “a day” who commit suicide. We all are responsible for their suffering and death.

It’s very sad that we, as a nation, acknowledge the glory of war but not the damage done. We do not see the wounded warriors nor flag draped coffins coming home, if we did we might not support these wars.

Let’s really support them by not sending them on political and economically motivated conflicts. Let’s honor our democracy by debating these issues and not marginalize another political party as being unpatriotic for questioning the reasons for spending this precious blood of our young.

Obama needs someone who’ll argue with him

D

enis McDonough, the White House chief of staff, had a peculiar reaction to the Democrats’ defeat in the midterm elections, widely blamed on President Obama’s unpopularity.

NBC White House correspondent Chris Jansing asked the 44-year-old McDonough to name “one thing you can say DANA MILBANK to American voters they’re going to see that’s different given the message that they sent on Tuesday.”

McDonough’s reply: “They’re going to see Washington working better if this president has his way. That’s what he’s going to do.”

“How?” pressed the reporter.

“Well,” said McDonough, “we’re going to do it any number of ways.”

For example: by rubbing a rabbit’s foot, wishing upon a star, sprinkling Capitol Hill with fairy dust and scouring the Mall for four-leaf clovers and heads-up pennies.

McDonough’s willful cluelessness about the message from the midterms is the latest evidence that Obama urgently needs new blood in his White House.

There’s nothing wrong with McDonough, Valerie Jarrett, Susan Rice, Dan Pfeiffer or the others. The place is full of talent.

What’s missing is a political peer of the president’s, one with the stature and the authority to tell him when he’s screwing up, the way Rahm Emanuel could. Without that, Obama has an administration of affirmation.

Much of the blame for the yes-men culture around Obama has been placed on Jarrett. Politico magazine just published an article titled “Fire Valerie Jarrett.” And an extensively reported piece by Noam Scheiber in the New Republic uses the same 2011 photo of Obama and Jarrett lounging on a staircase (the Chicago chums go way back) but gives a smart assessment of the problem. The issue is not Jarrett per se but the lack of others to offset her power.

“Jarrett’s work behind the scenes served the president well so long as people like Larry Summers, Rahm Emanuel and Robert Gibbs ... remained inside the building,” Scheiber wrote. “She diversified the views he received without stifling internal debate. But then, one by one, the big personalities left.” And now, Scheiber reports, Obama no longer even meets daily with his top advisers, instead relying on informal conversations with Jarrett and McDonough. This does “less to check Obama’s inclinations” and makes him “even more persuaded of his righteousness as the years have gone on.”

Among modern administrations, Obama’s second-term decision-making sounds, ominously, most like Jimmy Carter’s. Carter essentially served as his own chief of staff and surrounded himself with loyalists while top aide Hamilton Jordan enjoyed unlimited access to Carter and the ability to choose his issues. That’s not unlike what Carol Felsenthal, author of the Politico article, said of Jarrett: “Her undefined role combined with what by all accounts has been almost unlimited proximity to the Obamas has proved a bad mix. She seems to isolate the president from people who might help him or teach him something.”

Of course, there is a danger in bringing in big personalities rather than loyalists, and Obama has suffered the consequences of his first-term “team of rivals” in the kiss-and-tell memoirs by Hillary Clinton, Robert Gates and, particularly, Leon Panetta. Yet he has done himself more harm filling top positions with loyalists.

McDonough, a long-time Capitol Hill hand, joined Obama’s staff in the Senate seven years ago and worked his way up through the administration. But his actions as White House chief of staff sometimes seem smaller than the job title. He was the one who let the world know that Obama was “quite angry” that an anonymous senior administration official had called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a bad word involving poultry, and he’s also the one who announced that Obama was “madder than hell” about health care delays for veterans. Recently, McDonough flew out to San Francisco to negotiate personally with Sen. Dianne Feinstein about redactions in a Senate report on CIA torture.

It wouldn’t be hard for Obama to bring in some high-profile talent. But that only works if the president wants somebody to challenge him and not just to cheer.

Associated Press SEATTLE — Frigid wind gusts that knocked trees onto power lines in western Washington were easing Wednesday, but the cold remained with a chance of snow Thursday south of Olympia and south of I-90 in Eastern Washington, forecasters said.

Forty mph winds blasted through the Puget Sound lowlands Tuesday night, said Johnny Burg, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service office in Seattle. A gust near Enumclaw reached 61 mph.

At one time, Puget Sound Energy had about 60,000 customers out of service, spokesman Ray Lane said.

Crews working in continuing winds had the frustration of seeing some areas they had restored going dark again as more trees fell.

By Wednesday morning, service had been restored to a total of 136,000 customers but more than 53,000 remained out, he said.

NORTHWEST BRIEFLY

TED S. WARREN / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Residents at the Windsor Park Apartments in Auburn stand in a doorway Wednesday as they check out a large tree that fell just to the side of their unit.

The hardest-hit area was near Federal Way where a highvoltage transmission line took a big hit from falling trees, Lane said.

Power outages closed or delayed schools Wednesday in Federal Way, Kent, Renton, Auburn and Fife.

Most low temperatures in western Washington were in

the 20s and 30s — not recordbreaking, Burg said. They should warm gradually Thursday, but moisture moving into the state could start falling as snow south of Olympia before changing to rain, he said.

Eastern Washington remains colder with some lows into single digits and highs only in the 20s, said meteorologist Matt

Fugazzi in the Weather Service office in Spokane.

Any snow Thursday in Eastern Washington will likely remain south of I-90, said meteorologist Douglas Weber with the Weather Service office in Pendleton, Oregon. Up to 5 inches are expected in the lowlands and 6 to 10 inches on the east slopes of the Cascades and Blue Mountains.

Homing in on hummers

SEATTLE — The National Marine Fisheries Service is set to designate about 1,000 square miles in Puget Sound as critical habitat for three species of imperiled rockfish. The habitat protection follows a 2010 decision to list yelloweye, canary and bocaccio rockfish under the Endangered Species Act. The agency said the rockfish are vulnerable to overfishing because they have long lives and mature slowly with sporadic reproduction. The designation will require federal agencies to make sure their actions don’t harm rockfish habitat. The rule is scheduled to be published on Thursday. The protected area will cover about 340 fewer square miles that originally proposed, excluding some tribal lands and military areas.

Bank robber nabbed The FBI says it has captured a Washington bank robber nicknamed “The Roscoe Bandit” in Grants Pass, Oregon. William Mitchell, 55, was arrested around 3 p.m. Wednesday after a federal arrest warrant charged him with bank robbery. The FBI alleged he was involved in at least four bank robberies in Washington state in July, October and November. The FBI said Spokane police officers believe Mitchell was shown in surveillance video associated with a robbery in Spokane last week.

Insights on hummingbird travel, life span surprise scientists

Bremerton: Dog mauls infant, bites mom

By Keith Ridler

A pet dog mauled a 10-monthold boy and bit his mother on her hands and arms when she went to help him Tuesday at a home in Bremerton. Fire department emergency responders said the boy was alone in a room playing with a broom when the family dog attacked. The Kitsap Sun reported the woman and her son were transported to Harrison Medical Center. Firefighter Troy Reynolds said the boy suffered substantial facial injuries. The dog was described as a mediumsized boxer mix.

Associated Press

BOISE, Idaho — Hummingbirds are giving up some of their secrets.

The perfecting of placing tiny numbered bands on their legs in the past decade has led researchers to discover hummingbirds can live longer than 10 years as opposed to the two or three once thought likely.

And astonishing migrations have been found, with a Rufous hummingbird caught in Florida one winter showing up the following summer more than 3,500 miles away in southeast Alaska.

Some birds have even been discovered wintering in areas where temperatures drop below zero.

“We’re learning a lot about hummingbirds through banding we never would have learned otherwise,” said Bruce Peterjohn, chief of the bird banding laboratory for the U.S. Geological Survey’s Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in Laurel, Maryland.

Federal and state permits are required to capture hummingbirds, which are protected under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. In the United States, Peterjohn said, there are some 225 hummingbird banders. About 125 are considered master bird banders because of the years they have spent perfecting the technique.

An additional 100 banders trained by a master bird bander have sub-permits, though they are allowed to capture hummingbirds unsupervised.

Despite the obstacles, the number of hummingbird banders has increased from about a dozen in the mid-1990s.

That’s about when Fred Bassett started banding hummingbirds.

“They know exactly what’s going on,” said Bassett, 68, a master bird bander who caught 1,900 hummingbirds in Idaho last summer but spends much of the winter at his home in Alabama. “They know humans are supposed to put up the feeders.

They consider us to be their personal servants.”

Bassett flew fighter jets before retiring from the U.S. Air Force in 1988 and still finds hummingbird flight amazing.

“I envy them greatly for being able to fly like that — how they can maneuver, go from 0 to 50 miles per hour in about 10 feet,”

Kentucky: Seattle game producer bought

LIZ URBAN / INTERMOUNTAIN BIRD OBSERVATORY, BOISE STATE UNIVERSITY

Researchers have discovered that Calliope hummingbirds can live longer than 10 years as opposed to the two or three once thought likely, through the perfecting of placing tiny numbered bands on hummingbirds’ legs.

A female Black-Chinned Hummingbird.

he said.

Besides advances in the tiny metal bands — which banders have to prepare themselves — breakthroughs have also been made in trapping equipment.

Just as important, said Jessica Pollock, a research biologist with the Intermountain Bird Observatory at Boise State University, have been refinements in gathering information to give it greater relevance.

“You need to have a standardized protocol,” she said. “You just can’t be willy-nilly.”

Her group last year caught a record 635 hummingbirds, including 105 recaptures, during nine capture days between May

and August on private property located about a mile south of Idaho City. Key to capturing hummingbirds, she said, is to go where there is an established feeding site put up by humans that has had time to attract generations of hummingbirds.

“They’ll bring their kids, and their baby hummingbirds will bring theirs the next year,” Pollock said. “So you just get more and more every year.”

Carl Rudeen, another hummingbird bander in Idaho, captured a record 768 hummingbirds in the state. He’s discovered that a new species of hummingbird, the Anna’s hummingbird, is starting to move into Idaho.

“This year we caught two juveniles in August,” he said, “the first documentation of juveniles in Idaho.”

His theory is that the species, which thrives in urban environments with human helpers, is moving from coastal areas to Idaho expecting to find hummingbird feeders at the ready.

All the new information has led to yet more questions.

For example, Peterjohn said, it’s not clear if hummingbirds on their long migrations fly hundreds of miles at a time and make long layovers to refuel, or if they are making relatively short 30-mile flights. The longevity of hummingbirds is also unknown, with Peterjohn predicting birds in their teens will likely start showing as the banding program continues. A lack of banders in Mexico and central America is a problem though, he added.

And in Idaho, local banders are at a loss to explain why record numbers of hummingbirds were captured last summer. Some possibilities, Pollock said, range from a better breeding year to better migrating conditions. But researchers can only speculate.

“Our knowledge has increased and made us realize how little we know and how much there still is to learn about hummingbirds,” Peterjohn said.

Churchill Downs Inc. says it has agreed to buy Seattle-based online and mobile game producer Big Fish in a deal worth up to $885 million. Both companies’ boards have approved the sale, which is pending regulatory approval. Churchill Downs, the parent company of the Louisville track where the Kentucky Derby is held, said the deal is expected to close by the end of the year.

Churchill Downs Inc. CEO Bill Carstanjen said the acquisition gives the company new products, customers, locations and growth opportunities. The sale includes a base price of $485 million and up to $350 million based on 2015 earnings and a potential bonus of $50 million to Big Fish CEO Paul Thelen. The purchase price will be paid in cash, except for about $15 million paid in Churchill common stock to Thelen.

Conn.: Pilot error in crash that killed 4 Federal investigators say pilot error in windy conditions caused a plane to crash into two Connecticut houses last year, killing four people. The National Transportation Safety Board report last month says former Microsoft executive Bill Henningsgaard, of Medina, caused the 10-seat plane to stall and crash in August 2013 when he failed to maintain airspeed while banking “aggressively” in gusty tail wind conditions. The aircraft crashed into two houses in East Haven during a landing attempt.

The crash killed Henningsgaard; his 17-year-old son, Maxwell; and two children in one of the homes — Sade Brantley, 13, and her 1-year-old sister, Madisyn Mitchell.

Cy Young not in cards for M’s Hernandez Seattle star narrowly edged

by Cleveland’s Corey Kluber to finish 2nd in AL voting.

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Sigh instead of Cy. Seattle Mariners ace Felix Hernandez, the King, saw anticipation turn to keen disappointment Wednesday when he fell short in his bid to win the American League Cy Young Award for the second time in his career.

The honor went instead to Cleveland’s Corey Kluber in a tight vote.

“I don’t know what to say,” Hernandez said. “That was tough. I’m a little disappointed, but you know what? It just gives me more motivation to work harder and to be better next year.”

Kluber received 17 of the 30 firstplace votes and 169 points from a Baseball Writers’ Association of America panel, which consisted of two members from chapters in each of the AL’s 15 cities.

Hernandez got the other 13 firstplace votes and finished with 159

points. Chicago left-hander Chris Sale was third with 78 points.

Each ballot listed five pitchers with points assigned on a 7-4-3-2-1 basis — i.e., seven points for a first-place vote, etc. All balloting took place prior to the start of postseason.

“It’s pretty awesome,” said Kluber, who finished 18-9 with a 2.44 ERA. “I definitely didn’t expect it, so it’s a pleasant surprise.”

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Clayton Kershaw was a unanimous See CY YOUNG, Page C6

‘Big shoes to fill’ for Seahawks’ Williams

12-year veteran will start in place of injured Brandon Mebane at nose tackle.

By John Boyle Herald Writer

RENTON — It might seem a bit strange for a six-time Pro Bowler to say he has big shoes to fill replacing someone who has never earned that postseason honor, but that’s exactly the situation Kevin Williams is in halfway through his first season with the Seattle Seahawks.

Williams, who in 11 season with the Minnesota Vikings established himself as one of the league’s best interior lineman, came to Seattle as a free agent in large part because he wanted to win, but also Kevin because he recog- Williams nized that, at 34, 34-year-old he might be bet- was a six-time ter off playing for a Pro Bowler for team that rotates its Minnesota. defensive linemen heavily to minimize wear and tear. A long-time starter, Williams came to Seattle to be a rotational player, while Brandon Mebane and Tony McDaniel started ahead of him in the base defense.

“Sometimes you have to face reality — you can’t play 60 snaps a week going into your 12th season,” Williams said. “If you want to play at a high level, you have to cut back on the reps and maximize the ones you get.”

Now, Williams will have to maximize a few more reps going forward.

He will take over the starting nose tackle job now that Mebane has been placed on injured reserve after tearing his hamstring “really drastically,” according to head coach Pete Carroll, an injury that will require surgery.

“It’s big shoes to fill,” said Williams, who made the NFC Pro Bowl roster six times from 2004 to 2010. “I mean you guys have seen ’Bane play the last eight years and

here are times when sports can serve a greater purpose.

That has been the case at Marysville Pilchuck High School the past two weeks.

A week after the school shooting that eventually claimed five lives and left another student injured, the MP football team gave the grieving Marysville community something positive to rally behind, claiming the Wesco 3A championship with a 55-34 win over Meadowdale.

It was a step in the healing process.

standouts to sign a letter of intent, C3

Last week, the Marysville Pilchuck volleyball team did its part by providing another inspiring moment. After entering the 3A District 1 playoffs as the No. 8 seed — the lowest seed in the tournament — the Tomahawks surprised everyone by pulling off two consecutive upsets to earn a state berth and advance to the district championship.

“After everything that happened, we we’re going to show people that we’re strong and that we can do this as a team,” junior setter

Courtney Fitzmaurice said. “We’re going to come back and do it for our school and do it for our friends and community and everything — and we did. We’ve never wanted anything as much as we wanted that.”

The Tomahawks face Mercer Island at 11:45 a.m. Friday in the opening round of the 3A state tournament at Saint Martin’s University in Lacey.

Few expected MP to make a run at a state berth. The Tomahawks lost their final two matches of the regular season on backto-back nights — their first two matches See TOMAHAWKS, Page C3

Schultz leads Warriors into quarterfinals with hat trick Edmonds-Woodway records its 13th shutout of the season, tops Auburn Mountainview 4-0 to advance.

By Brian Adamowsky Herald Writer

EDMONDS — After scoring at least one goal in 12 consecutive matches for Edmonds-Woodway, junior forward Madison Schultz was held scoreless by Shorewood

in the 3A district championship match, which the Warriors won on a goal by Hailey Hull.

In Edmonds-Woodway’s opening match in the 3A state tournament on Wednesday at Edmonds Stadium, Schultz began a new streak in a big way.

The North Carolina commit recorded a hat trick in the first 20 minutes of action, leading the Warriors (16-3-1) to an emphatic 4-0 victory over Auburn Mountainview ( 12-6-1) and into a quarterfinal matchup with Seattle Prep on Saturday back at Edmonds Stadium.

match is yet to be determined.

Schultz registered an unassisted tally in the sixth minute and did it herself again just over four minutes later to give Edmonds-Woodway a 2-0 advantage 11 minutes into the contest.

By the time Schultz converted from the penalty spot in the 20th minute to make it 3-0, it left the visiting Lions in a huge hole.

“We were shell-shocked,”

Auburn Mountainview coach Cary Davidson said. “We knew No. 2 (Schultz) was a good player and we needed to mark her, but we lost track of her a few times.

T

he Cowlitz River is widely considered to be one of Western Washington’s major sport-fishing factories, and this time of year anglers have their choice of several overlapping species. Late fall chinook? Check. Late summer steelhead? Check. Early winter steelhead? Check. Sea-run cutthroat? Check.

And what’s the overlooked and under-utilized species on that list? That’s easy — the cutthroat, of course. So why are cutts even tallied by state Department of Fish and Wildlife creel samplers on the Cowlitz, and not, say, on the Snohomish?

Because the Cowlitz run of cutthroat is unique, according to Joe Hymer, a state biologist in Vancouver. It’s the only river in the state stocked with sea-runs by the department.

Fall is the best time to mount a fishing trip for these beautiful trout, according to Hymer. Most fish are caught around the trout hatchery and near the mouth of Blue Creek, and it can be limit fishing at times, he said. The limit is five trout, with just two over 20 inches.

The Cowlitz Trout Hatchery collected nearly 2,000 returning cutthroat last year, Hymer said. The fish averaged 12 to 14 inches, with a few in the 20-inch range.

Fly fishing is a good way to tackle cutthroat, but so is the use of spinning gear with spoons and spinners, and particularly, drifting nightcrawlers. Cutts, not being an especially discerning species, will take a wide range of bait and lures aggressively, as illustrated by a Hymer anecdote: “I was salmon fishing with a buddy last year — near-shore, off Ilwaco — using a diver/ anchovy rig,” he said. “I caught a cutthroat, boated it, admired it, and released it. Not more than 15 minutes later, my buddy caught what we believe to have been the same fish, on a cutplug herring. We recognized it

Steelhead fishing in Western Washington is still a couple of weeks in the future, so in the meantime, knock the rust off your casting arm with a trip to the Hanford Reach portion of the Columbia River, north of the Tri-Cities.

Two weeks ago, the state Department of Fish and Wildlife checked 129 bank fishermen with 65 steelhead, and 20 boats in the same area with 20 steelhead. And the fishing has improved since then. State biologist Paul Hoffarth said a good run of 281,000 summer steelhead has passed Bonneville Dam and is headed for Hanford Reach and the Columbia tributaries.

The fishery should offer good results this month and right on through the spring, Hoffarth said, particularly since hatchery personnel at Ringold are recycling excess hatchery fish by

because of an unusual pattern of sea lice.”

That’s cutthroat for you — pretty but kinda dumb.

One word of warning: If you’re lightly rigged for trout fishing, you could easily hook a 10-pound coho or 15-pound chinook, and then, friend, you’ve got problems.

Last week’s report from the Cowlitz Salmon Hatchery separator listed 194 summerrun steelhead, three winter-run steelhead, 255 adult fall chinook, six chinook jacks, 11,293 adult coho, 344 coho jacks, and 127 sea-run cutthroat.

Those numbers show why coho fishing has been, and remains, excellent on the Cowlitz, Kalama and North Lewis, with bank fishermen averaging better than a fish per rod last week on all three streams.

Before leaving the Cowlitz, steelhead fishermen may be interested to learn that the river’s winter steelhead run is being “reprogrammed” to minimize the number of early-timed fish and emphasize the late-timed portion of the run. According to Hymer, the late fish will be taking over and winter steelheaders will be looking at top action in January and February instead of early December. Some 700,000 late winter smolts were planted in 2012, and are due back this winter as 2-year olds, Hymer said.

How all that will affect this winter’s fishery remains to be

trucking them downstream to be released at the Tri-Cities.

Bank fishermen work the seams close to shore early in the day, going deeper as light brightens and boat traffic increases. Scented or baited bucktail or marabou jigs are popular, in black, black and red, and black and purple. Boaters drift and cast toward shore, or backtroll diver and bait or diving plugs in chrome patterns with red, purple, green or pink trim. Drifting Corky and yarn, eggs, shrimp or nightcrawlers works for both bank and boat fishermen.

Take a weekend, visit the wineries in the Yakima Valley or the Tri-Cities area, then make the short drive up to the Ringold Springs hatchery for some often very good early steelheading.

seen.

Local saltwater Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sport Center in Lynnwood said the local winter blackmouth season has been “pretty decent so far, when the weather allows.”

Marine Area 9 — Possession Bar, Double Bluff, Scatchet Head and Point No Point — has probably been the most consistent producer, with slower fishing reported from the Edmonds shoreline, Saratoga Passage and Pilot Point. The Pilot Point area and south probably will pick up after the first of the year, Chamberlain said.

Checks at the Port of Everett ramp Friday showed 50 anglers with 16 chinook and seven chums, and on Saturday, 84 anglers with 18 chinook. Checks at Dagmar’s Landing on Friday tallied seven fishermen with five chinook, and at Port Townsend on Saturday it was 16 with 11 chinook.

Chamberlain said it seems there are more chums than usual being caught incidentally by blackmouth fishermen and, in local rivers, by coho anglers. Chums can’t be kept this season on most north Puget Sound rivers.

“Folks looking for river coho would probably be better off now going over to the Forks-area streams — the Bogachiel and Sol Duc — or down to the Satsop, Humptulips or Cowlitz,” Chamberlain said.

Hoodsports chums The shore fishery for hatchery chums at Hoodsport continues to put out fair to good numbers, with a check Friday showing 38 anglers with 23 fish, and on Sunday, 41 with 22 fish.

Seahawks place TE Miller on IR

By John Boyle Herald Writer

RENTON — A week ago head coach Pete Carroll talked optimistically about his beat-up Seattle Seahawks finally getting key players back from injuries.

And yes, the Seahawks were indeed healthier for Sunday’s game against the New York Giants than they had been in several weeks, but this week has brought more significant bad news on the injury front.

On Monday, Seattle placed defensive tackle Brandon Mebane on injured reserve, the result of a torn hamstring suffered a day earlier.

And on Tuesday another key player was ruled out for the remainder of the 2014 season with tight end Zach Miller also landing on injured reserve.

Miller had missed the past six games while recovering from ankle surgery, but the Seahawks had hoped to get him back at some point this season. Instead, Carroll said Miller just didn’t recover as well as expected, and will need another operation on his ankle.

“He doesn’t feel right,” Carroll said. “He’s not ready, it’s not like he’s really close to getting back. It’s just been a long process. He had a nasty ankle, and they were hoping to not do a really big surgery to give him a chance to be able to play this year, and it just isn’t that way.

So they’ll have to do the final work there and get him set up for next year.”

While Miller has never been a prolific pass catcher since signing with the Seahawks in 2011, he’s a vital part of their offense for his blocking ability,

both in the running game and in pass protection.

Now that the Seahawks know definitively that they won’t have Miller back this year, they’ll go forward with Luke Willson, who himself is recovering from an ankle sprain, Cooper Helfet, and two recent additions, veteran Tony Moeaki, who they signed last week, and rookie RaShaun Allen, who was signed off Minnesota’s practice squad Tuesday.

“We’ll all be ready, the tight end group, to do whatever they ask us to do,” said Moeaki, who coincidentally will make his Seahawks debut against Kansas City, where he spent his first three seasons and part of a fourth.”

Willson, who missed last week’s game with an ankle injury, didn’t practice Wednesday, but went through a walkthrough earlier in the day and has a chance to get back quicker than expected. Willson also made a fast recovery from an ankle injury last season.

“Canadian quick-healing blood,” Willson joked. “It’s one of those things where it looked a little bad on all the imaging stuff, but I don’t know, I was able to move around a bit yesterday. Obviously I’m not full-go, but you never know, we’ll see. I’m going to keep a positive attitude, and I think that’s half the battle when it comes to injuries.”

Miller and Mebane are both big losses for the Seahawks, and their injuries continue an unfortunate trend for the Seahawks, but while they’ll be missed, players say they have no choice but to move forward.

“We’re going to miss these guys, there’s no doubt, but at the same time, we’re not going

to sit here and wave the white flag or anything like that,” Willson said. “We’ll get after it and prepare for Kansas City, that’s what’s ahead.”

Bradford’s back Rookie Brock Coyle, who started the past two games at middle linebacker, is dealing with a glute injury and did not practice Wednesday.

With Bobby Wagner still out, and now Coyle a question mark, the Seahawks added depth at linebacker, bringing back Allen Bradford, who opened last season on their active roster and has also spent time on Seattle’s practice squad. Bradford, who played running back for Pete Carroll at USC, began his NFL career at that position, but in recent years has tried to transition to linebacker.

Other injuries Safety Kam Chancellor, who missed the past two games with a groin injury, practiced fully and is on track to play Sunday. Linebacker Malcolm Smith, who also missed two games with a groin injury, was a limited participant.

While Wagner has again been ruled out because of a turf toe injury, he is running this week and has a chance to be back for Seattle’s next game, a key NFC West matchup with Arizona.

“He’s running, and I think he’s doing some change-of-direction stuff today to find out how far along he is,” Carroll said. “He’s really excited about getting back. ...

This really sets him up, if he can get through the process this week, he should be in good shape for a chance to get back next week.”

Carroll: Moss report untrue A report recently surfaced in the Denver Post that the Seahawks had reached out to retired star receiver Randy Moss following the trade that sent Percy Harvin to the Jets.

Asked about that on Wednesday, Carroll was quick to shoot it down.

“That never happened,” Carroll said before repeating himself for emphasis. “That never happened.”

Pier and other Puget Sound piers, according to Chamberlain. Nighttime action, incoming and high tides, glow squids of various colors.

Smelt: Not much happening on the smelt jigging scene at Cornet Bay or Oak Harbor. The rumors say most people interested in that type of fishing are hauling in squid instead.

Crab: The winter crab fishery has been pretty good so far, Chamberlain said, particularly on Saratoga Passage.

Lake Washington Some nice cutthroat to 5-6 pounds are being boated by trollers on the east side of Lake Washington, around Hunt’s Point and Yarrow Bay, and the south end of Mercer Island.

Try small whole herring or anchovies in a helmet, or plug cut.

There’s still good yellow perch fishing on the big lake as well, but you’ll need to go down 35-45 feet this time of year. Fish a double-hook dropper rig with a nightcrawler or strip of perch meat, or a lead-head jig tipped with a maggot or piece of worm.

While you’re down that way, you might want to head over to Lake Union and try for some of the nicesized crappie being caught at several spots.

Trout A bunch of trout fishermen in this area are chasing the hatchery trucks stocking several lakes with a significant number of rainbow trout (young steelhead) left over after the state decided not to put steelhead in most local rivers. Lake Tye, on the west side of Monroe, has received two of these special fall plants totaling 8,000 trout, and will get a final plant of 2,000 fish between Nov. 17 and 26. North and South Gissberg Ponds, west of I-5 near Smokey Point, have both received two plants totaling 2,500 trout (the north pond is juveniles only) and both will get their final fall plant of 1,250 fish between Nov. 17-26. Cranberry Lake, on the north end of Whidbey Island near Deception Pass, has received two fall plants totaling 21,000 trout and will get its final fall plant of 7,500 fish between Nov. 17-26.

you know the things that he does up front. It’s tough; I hate to get increased reps because of that situation but they brought me in to help the D-line play whatever position it is, and me, Tony, and Jordan (Hill) — we’re going to have to take that role and try to fill those shoes.”

So far this season, Williams has played just over 40 percent of Seattle’s defensive snaps, while Mebane played 47.7 percent. As Williams notes, he won’t simply add Mebane’s workload on to his, but rather it will be spread out between him, McDaniel, Hill and others. Recently signed 285-pound fullback Will Tukuafu will even get some work in practice on the defensive line, he told reporters.

Tukuafu played some on the defensive line in San Francisco as well. The Seahawks also have two defensive ends who can play in the interior in Michael Bennett and Demarcus Dobbs, a player they claimed off waivers from the 49ers last week.

“That’s a big hole in our defense,” Hill said of Mebane’s injury. “He’s done it for so long and he’s so good at it, that’s something you can’t replace right away. But me and Kevin will do the best to our ability to step up and be players.”

Williams admits he feels better this time of year than he did in Minnesota when he was regularly playing 60 percent or more of the Vikings’ defensive snaps — “It’s definitely easier to walk around during the week without taking such a beating on Sunday,” he said — but he’s also ready to do more, even in his 12th season, if that’s what is needed going forward.

“It’s been a big help to share the reps with the guys,” he said. “But I’m anxious to get going this week.”

Aasman’s scoring drought ends

By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

EVERETT — Logan Aasman made sure everyone knew the monkey was off his back.

One night later, for good measure, he confirmed it in spectacular fashion.

Aasman ended a lengthy goalscoring drought last Friday when he scored the Everett Silvertips’ opening goal in a 5-1 victory at Vancouver.

And afterward, as he was skating toward the bench, he reached onto his back, grabbed a fictitious monkey, and threw it to the ice, symbolizing the end of his run of bad luck.

“I got the goal, I was pretty surprised still, and as you know I hadn’t scored, that was my first goal of the year,” Aasman said. “I

thought I’d take the monkey off my back there.”

Aasman went goal-less during Everett’s first 15 games. This despite having a wealth of great scoring chances that went begging.

But just 2 minutes, 14 seconds into the game against Vancouver the Tips won a faceoff in the Vancouver zone. The puck wound up with Aasman in front, and he backhanded a shot that deflected off the defense and fluttered over Vancouver goaltender Payton Lee to open the scoring.

“I just kind of spun around, it hit their guy’s stick, and it kind of rainbowed up and over the goalie,” Aasman said. “But it felt good to go in.”

While the goal that ended Aasman’s drought had an element of good fortune, there was nothing fortunate about the goal he scored

the next night, when he put a shot from the tightest of angles through a minuscule opening and into the top of the net during Everett’s 6-4 home loss to Spokane.

“That one felt even better, to get two in a row,” Aasman said. “Now I can just kind of keep that train rolling.”

Leedahl back sooner?

Tips winger Dawson Leedahl may be back from injury sooner than expected.

Leedahl suffered ligament damage to his knee during Everett’s 3-2 overtime victory at Spokane on Oct. 18.

Leedahl underwent an MRI and the initial examination of the results suggested Leedahl would likely need surgery and miss four-to-six months. However, Leedahl got a second opinion, and it was determined Leedahl didn’t require surgery after all.

Leedahl is currently resting up at his home in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. He’s expected to return to Everett next week

for a re-evaluation of his knee. If his progress is on target, the Tips are hoping he’ll be able to return sometime in December, though they won’t rush Leedahl back as they take every precaution.

Russians return victorious Everett’s Russian duo of Nikita Scherbak and Ivan Nikolishin were scheduled back in Everett on Wednesday night following a successful stint at the Canada-Russia Super Series.

The Tips forwards were called up

by Russia to play in games against the WHL on Monday in Saskatoon and Tuesday in Brandon, Manitoba. Russia won both games 3-2.

Scherbak played in both games and although he didn’t record any points, he did score during an 11-round shootout that decided the first game. Nikolishin played in just the first game and also was held pointless.

Terrace’s Romanowksi signs with Denver

By David Krueger Herald Writer

Samantha Romanowski suffered a major setback in her basketball career when she tore her anterior cruciate ligament last July.

Quickly after, the Mountlake Terrace star received assurances from the University of Denver that the injury didn’t change the goal of having Romanowski come play for the school.

Romanowski made it official on Wednesday, signing a letter of intent to play for the Pioneers after her senior year at Mountlake Terrace.

“After my knee and everything, the choice kind of became where I want to see myself going,” Romanowski said. “Who supported me the most after it happened? Denver was at the top. They told me right when it happened that they know I’ll be able to come back from it and be a really good player. They weren’t scared of it.”

Romanowski, who was voted co-Wesco 3A Player of the Year last season, visited the Denver campus for a basketball tournament and the school immediately jumped into her top candidates.

“When I went there for a basketball game I really fell in love with the campus and the people there,” Romanowski said. “The coaches are really nice and the team is just like a family.

They really treat each other like sisters.”

When Romanowski injured her ACL on July 7 at an AAU tournament in Oregon, Denver recommitted to the senior shooting guard.

Romanowski said one other school did not, and

shutouts can be under the radar for anybody, but it’s a concerted effort and a goal for them to keep the clean sheet,” LeCompte said of his defenders. “It’s a team effort to make it happen and it comes from all of them working their tails off.”

One of the few offensive opportunities Auburn Mountainview could muster came after a poor corner kick by the Warriors midway through the second half.

Edmonds-Woodway had numbers forward for the set piece and Lake led a counter-attack for the Lions, but Kialani Mackey cut her off and earned a throw-in for the Warriors.

GENNA MARTIN / THE HERALD

Mountlake Terrace’s Samantha Romanowski will play basketball at the University of Denver.

withdrew its scholarship offer.

Despite the injury, Mountlake Terrace head coach Zach Wilde says the Pioneers are getting one heck of a player.

“They’re gong to get a really good player that’s got the potential to help them go from a midmajor to making the NCAA tournament,” Wilde said. “It’s a scary thing for a school. She’s not going to play for over a year and a half before she gets any game time. But with how common the injury is nowadays, it shouldn’t scare too many schools off. At the end of the day you’re getting a great player and she’s going to come back from it.”

Romanowski will not play basketball during

Tomahawks From Page C1

following the shooting — to finish 6-6 in league play.

Though not reflected in the results, that week and those two losses helped prepare the Tomahawks for success at the district tournament.

Three days after the shooting, the team was allowed to practice at the high school for the first time.

Marysville Pilchuck coach Brittany Fitzmaurice said there wasn’t much volleyball played that day. It was the first time the team got a chance to heal collectively.

“We let the girls kind of dictate how they were feeling and what they wanted out of the practice,” Coach Fitzmaurice said. “Ultimately, they just wanted a place to gather and collect (their thoughts) and be together.”

The coach’s setter and younger sister Courtney said the players didn’t know how to act being back in their home gym.

“It was almost like an awkward feeling when we came back,” Courtney Fitzmaurice said. “We felt bad if we smiled or laughed. The coaches kind of said to us that it’s OK to smile and it’s OK to cry. It’s OK to feel your emotions, but being together is what’s important.”

Coach Fitzmaurice, who played for Marysville Pilchuck the last time the Tomahawks went to state in 2008, said she quickly realized that her job was no longer just to coach the team.

Her players were dealing with the events of Oct. 24 in different ways and she had to be there for them.

her senior year at Mountlake Terrace, but will still spend quite a bit of time around the girls basketball team. The senior will help coach the Hawks this season with Wilde.

“I’ll kind of be a little helper coach and actually be able to see what’s going on and help a little,” Romanowski said. “Just kind of be there and another set of eyes. I think it’ll help me a lot, just getting better at my game. I’ll be able to see what coaches are talking about when they say something. A lot of times when you’re playing and a coach says something you’re thinking, ‘I’m already doing that.’”

While Wilde and Romanowski both would rather have the star on the court, the head coach is excited to have Romanowski coach with him this season. He believes it will be a great experience for her.

“It is the most valuable thing she will ever get out of her injury,” Wilde said. “You get to see the game in a totally different perspective now.

You can see things and go, ‘What if we did that?’

She’ll learn a lot.”

Romanowski, who wants to be a pediatrician, celebrated signing day with a physical therapy appointment on Wednesday. She is planning on having a party with friends and family at Sorellis Pizza in Mountlake Terrace on Saturday.

As for her recovery, Romanowski said she is ahead of schedule, and should be ready to make a difference for Denver right away.

“I’ve started a modified run,” Romanowski said. “It’s just getting it really strong. Everything’s on track. My doctor says I’m a little ahead of the time frame.”

“After everything that happened, I realized I’m not just a volleyball coach now, now I have to be a friend to these girls and I have to be almost like a parent in trying to help them work through this,” she said.

Two days after the Tomahawks returned to practice, they competed for the first time since the shooting, losing 3-1 at Arlington.

“When we played Arlington our first game back, we had a lot of support,” Courtney Fitzmaurice said. “We could see it in the crowd. Everyone was wearing red. It was incredible to see that and to feel it. I think that was probably the toughest (match) we’ve ever played. We still lost, but we felt good about it. It was a good loss.

“After the match, we all kind of broke down. We had that moment.

I think it was really good for us to have that. It really brought us closer together.”

The Tomahawks were swept the following night by Shorecrest in the final match of the regular season.

Two days later, they opened the district tournament against top-seeded Shorewood.

Coach Fitzmaurice didn’t know what to expect.

“I knew the girls were totally capable of beating each team, but I was unsure of where they were and how stable we were as a team,” she said.

“I knew that they were either going to soar through these matches and we were going to do great, or we were going to collapse. They really came together as a team through everything that’s happened. They’re better than they were before. I think they’re stronger and they trust each other.”

Three days after the Tomahawks upset Shorewood, they swept

fifth-seeded Ferndale to secure a berth in the state tournament.

“We shared lots of moments together,” junior outside hitter Sydney Jarvis said. “We hugged it out.

We cried so many times at practice. It brought us closer together.

Then when we had those victories at district, it just made it so much easier and we bonded so much more because we were able to come together and push past it.”

The Tomahawks went on to lose the district championship to Edmonds-Woodway 3-1, but their accomplishments were not lost on Warriors’ head coach Nicole Bordeaux.

“It was a little bit shocking to see them come through the district tournament like they did,” Bordeaux said. “They had some big competitors that they had to go through. … They fought really hard to get to where they are. It was a pretty impressive battle.

I was really excited for them. It was really neat and is a great accomplishment for them and for that school.”

The Tomahawks hope to return from the state tournament with a trophy, but whatever happens, their young coach has forever been impacted by what her team accomplished in the face of tragedy.

“After everything, I couldn’t be anything but proud,” Coach Fitzmaurice said. “I have so much respect for these girls. My job is to come in and inspire confidence in them, but I think the tables have turned and they’ve been doing that for me all season.”

selection in winning the National League award for the third time in four years.

Hernandez, 28, loomed as the AL favorite after his previous selection as the league’s best pitcher in balloting by his peers (Players Choice Award) and AL executives (The Sporting News).

One possible explanation for why he failed to win the Cy Young Award: The Mariners fell one game short of reaching postseason for the first time since 2001 — and perhaps some voters viewed one poor late-season outing by Hernandez as a decisive argument

The BBWAA vote typically takes place later than balloting on the other awards, which might have placed extra weight on Hernandez’s Sept. 23 performance in Toronto, when he allowed eight runs in 42⁄3 innings.

“Probably,” Hernandez acknowledged. “It was just one start. What can I say?”

Despite that stumble, Hernandez finished 15-6 in 34 starts and led the majors with a 2.14 ERA. He snatched the AL ERA crown away from Sale by pitching 51⁄3 scoreless innings in the season’s final game.

head-to-head matchup of the season.

“He beat me in Cleveland,” Hernandez said. “He had a great year. Sale, Kluber, myself ... we all deserve that award. But you know, there’s only one winner.”

Even so, Hernandez contends he pitched better this season than in 2010, when he won the Cy Young Award by going 13-12 with a 2.27 ERA for a team that finished 61-101.

“Yeah, I do,” he said. “It was a great year. I felt fine the whole year. I think I pitched way better than in 2010. I’ll move on. It’s going to be a new year next year.”

Hernandez set a major-league record this season by making 16 consecutive starts in which he pitched at least seven innings and allowed two or fewer runs.

The previous record was 13 by Hall of Famer Tom Seaver of the New York Mets in 1971.

“You think about what he did this year,” Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. “That’s history. Nobody has ever done it. I’m not sure anybody will ever come close to it again in our lifetime.

“It’s just phenomenal. If you really think about that streak and what he did. You also think about the number of games when we didn’t score runs for him and what his record had a chance to be.”

It wasn’t enough.

“You know what?” Hernandez said “I’m going to prepare myself for next year. I’m going to prepare harder. I’m going to be in better shape than I was this year. And we’ll see what happens next year.”

Hot Stove updates Detroit reached a four-year deal to retain designated hitter Victor Martinez for $68 million, according to reports.

Martinez, 35, was high, if not atop, the Mariners’ free-agent target list in an effort to boost their attack. He is one of three finalists for the AL MVP award after batting .335 with 32 homers and 103 RBI in 151 games.

The Tigers extended a one-year qualifying offer of $15.3 million to Martinez, which he rejected — but that offer meant any other club signing him would lose a top draft pick. n General manager Andrew Friedman admits it’s likely the Dodgers will trade an outfielder. He told ESPNLosAngeles.com that, “I think it’s most likely the best course of action.”

The Mariners have long had interest in Matt Kemp, who is guaranteed $107 million over the next five years.

The Dodgers have indicated a willingness to eat some of Kemp’s salary, depending on the return in trade.

g n It’s i r p not s k too n i late o th t

A small investment now nets a delightful yield in a few months

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

We haven’t had a hard freeze yet, so there’s still time to plant.

This autumn’s relatively warm weather has pushed the deadline for putting tulip and daffodil bulbs, and even garlic, in the ground or in pots.

Flower bulbs can be found at most home and garden stores.

But if you want to buy local, it’s worth the trip to Skagit Valley to buy climate-tested, hardy bulbs that will produce brilliant colors in the spring.

Washington Bulb Co., located between Mount Vernon and La Conner, is one of the world’s largest flower bulb producers.

The Roozen family moved from the Netherlands to Skagit Valley in the 1950s to

establish their farm, and Washington Bulb is now run by the second generation.

The Roozens and several other families in the valley are the reason for the annual Tulip Festival, which draws throngs of people mesmerized by the acres and acres of flowers.

The company’s retail store, RoozenGaarde, offers single bulbs for sale or you can buy sacks of bulbs at a bulk-rate discount.

We recently paid $21 for 50 “Yellow Cheerfulness” daffodil bulbs and $18.75 for 50 “Ile de France” tulip bulbs, which will produce deep red flowers.

The folks at RoozenGaarde said these varieties have a good chance of naturalizing or spreading and will be OK should the weather forecasters be proved wrong and it actually gets cold this winter.

Bulb planting tips

IAN TERRY / HERALD PHOTOS

■■Leave them in a cool, dry place until planting day.

■■If planting in the ground, loosen your soil. Flower bulbs need good drainage and will rot in areas that hold water.

In clay soils, common in our area, it helps to add some coarse sand. It doesn’t hurt to add slow-release fertilizer, too, but it’s not necessary.

■■Tulips and daffodils look best when they are planted in groups. People may tell you to plant the bulbs about 5 inches apart, but it doesn’t hurt to space them closer together.

That’s what the people at RoozenGaarde do.

■■Most bulbs need to be planted around 6 inches deep.

Using a garden trowel helps keep each hole small. Place roots down.

■■Water once. The rain will take over. Do not use cedar bark as mulch. Plant some pansies or violas on top instead.

■■Daffodils are more likely to naturalize than tulips. It’s delightful to see daffodils blooming each spring in a wooded area of a garden. The Washington Bulb folks recommend that you take tulips out of the ground in late June and store them in a cool dry spot until the fall. However, it’s worth it to experiment with the bulbs you plant to see if they will divide and keep on producing.

■■If you are filling a container for a mixed bloom, put your See BULBS, Page D3

ANTIQUES & COLLECTIBLES | Terry and Kim Kovel

Artist-decorated Rookwood pottery very popular R ookwood pottery, made in Cincinnati since 1880, is perhaps the most popular American art pottery among collectors. The company not only made artist-decorated vases, molded bookends, art-deco figurines and commercial wares, but it also used marks that tell a collector exactly what it is.

Until 1886 the mark was the year in numerals and the name Rookwood.

In 1886 a new mark was chosen — a backward capital letter “R” leaning against a capital letter “P.” A flame

This vase has marks on the bottom indicating it is a piece of Rookwood pottery made in 1883 by a talented decorator.

It auctioned for $5,290 at Humler & Nolan of Cincinnati.

Unmarked it would have sold for much less.

was added to a circle around the top of the mark each year until 1900.

After that, a Roman numeral for the last two digits of the year was put under the mark. So 1904 was a flame mark with IV at the bottom.

The company went out of business in 1967, but was later bought and sold several times. In 2011 the business was bought by Martin and Marilyn Wade, Cincinnati real estate developers. Today Rookwood uses a new mark — the flame mark with the year in Roman numerals. So 2014

would be marked MMXIV. Other letter marks represent the color and type of clay, numbers 1 to 7301 tell the shape, and initials tell the name of the artist. All of these codes can be found in books or websites about Rookwood.

It helps to know this history, but a collector should judge a piece of Rookwood by the quality of the glaze and the skill of the decorator, and then add extra value for condition,

Spotlight on heating systems

NOVEMBER Is All About

STAYING WARM MONTH!

Whether they use natural gas, ethanol, propane, wood, pellets, or electricity, fireplaces and stoves are second to none where coziness and comfort are concerned.

The cost of installing a heating system in a home and paying for the ongoing heating costs is a major chunk of a family’s budget.

The purchase, as well as the annual operating costs and maintenance of equipment, can entail a lot of expense. Here are a few heating systems that combine savings with cozy pleasure.

Fireplaces and stoves Fireplaces and stoves have no equal in coziness and comfort, whether they use natural gas, ethanol, propane, wood, pellets, or electricity, and whether they are built-in, prefabricated, freestanding, traditional or modern.

Before choosing a heating system, compare the characteristics of different fuels and available models.

Electric baseboards and linear induction With programmable electronic thermo-

Hardware

Radiant heating This type of system does not heat the air but rather the walls, floors, windows and furniture. All of these elements store the heat and then release it into the air, providing exceptional and longlasting comfort. This is an invisible heating system that can be installed in floors, walls or ceilings.

stats, electric baseboard and linear induction heating systems allow you to economize on heating costs without compromising on comfort. During the winter, each room can be heated independently.

Landscaping

Heat pumps, central heating systems, and other devices all have their advantages and disadvantages.

Before making your choice, consider your specific needs and your budget.

And don’t forget to take into account the environment — a heating system that is both efficient and green is possible. Some advice? Before you start spending, talk to the in-store experts.

LIVING SMART | Angie Hicks

A primer before you buy a new furnace T

his time of year, your home heating system may be going through the occasional warm-up lap or it could be in full-blown workout mode already.

Hopefully, your system is fit for winter duty. But if you have doubts, here’s advice from top-rated HVAC pros: To assess your current system, ask your HVAC contractor to provide a written efficiency analysis and summary of any recommended repairs.

Your contractor can do this during an annual tune-up.

Heating systems are not one size fits all. Be wary of a contractor who offers a quote without

examining your home.

Ideally, a technician should perform what’s called a “Manual J calculation,” which includes square footage, window efficiency and other factors to determine the right size heating system. An incorrectly sized system will cost you money and comfort.

Buy the most efficient furnace you can afford.

Efficiency — a measure of how much energy put into the furnace is converted into heating power — is described in terms of AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency). The federal government requires that most types of furnaces reach a minimum 80 percent AFUE, though some

daffodils in first and your tulips on top.

Space the bulbs just 1 or 2 inches apart for a good display. Again, pansies planted on top are a nice cover until the bulbs begin to bloom.

■ In the spring, clip off the tulip blooms when the petals begin to fall.

Daffodils don’t need to be topped. Leave the foliage alone until it gets yellow or brown.

Garlic tips Garlic, the edible bulb, needs to go into the ground in the fall, too. Some people try to plant it in the spring, but it just doesn’t work as well.

You can use the garlic you buy in the grocery store. Take a clove, leave the skin on, put the root side down about 3 inches in your garden plot. Space other cloves about 6 inches apart. Cover with a light mulch of straw.

In the spring, remove the mulch.

When it flowers, you can stir fry and eat the garlic scapes. When the foliage dies back, you can harvest the garlic.

Plant bulbs. Wait.

Enjoy.

size, age, the fame of the decorator, and how much you like the piece. Humler & Nolan, an auction gallery in Cincinnati, sold a 14-inch-high vase with early Limoges-style decoration that was probably made by the founder of the pottery, Maria Longworth Nichols. It’s marked “Rookwood 1883.” Although it was chipped and restored, the quality of the decoration, large size and artist attribution attracted a bid of $5,290.

Q: My old porcelain figurine is a bathing beauty posed on her tummy under a turtle’s shell. The woman’s backside is exposed.

My aunt gave me the figure years ago and I think she owned it since the 1920s.

What can you tell me about it?

A: Your bathing beauty figurine, sometimes called a “naughty novelty,” is a form familiar to collectors.

Posed porcelain figures of partially clad women on or under turtle’s shells have been around since the early 1900s. Figures made in Germany before World War I are well made and sell today for $100 to $400.

Similar novelties made in Japan before or after World War II sell for less.

Q: I have a Polyphon music box from Germany

models can achieve as much as 97 percent AFUE. Depending on where you live, you may have several fuel choices: Natural gas, considered the most economical way to heat a home when temperatures are below freezing.

Oil or propane, which can be a good option where gas lines aren’t available. However, oil or propane furnaces require more storage room, run “dirtier” than natural gas and can be more expensive to operate.

Electricity, which can be an expensive way to fuel a furnace. Often, a heat pump is a more economical option for an all-electric house.

“Water +/-” uses local and national storytelling about how too much or too little water affects communities.

Stories are combined with music, poetry, visual projections and acting to create a theatrical production.

A heat pump, which transfers heat from one source — the air or ground — to another, also acts as an air conditioner in summer. One heat pump type, called ductless mini-split, can be a good alternative for homes currently heating with electric baseboards or wall heaters.

Keep in mind, however, that on very cold days, a heat pump may not perform as well as other systems. That’s why contractors typically suggest keeping your gas or oil system as a backup.

If you experience hot and cold spots in your home, or are using too much energy to keep your home at a set temperature, you may benefit from

A: Disc music boxes were invented in 1870.

Polyphon Musikwerke was founded in Leipzig, Germany, before 1890. Most Polyphone disc music boxes were made between 1895 and 1905. The company also made musical clocks and other items with musical mechanisms.

Music boxes are measured by the size of the disc, not the height of the cabinet.

Polyphon music boxes sell at auctions for hundreds or even thousands of dollars, depending on size, rarity and condition. A Polyphon Excelsion tabletop singlecomb music box and nine

a zoned system. Zoning divides a home into areas, each controlled by a separate thermostat, and can help you save on utility bills, reduce wear and tear on your system and increase indoor comfort.

The cost of a new heating system can vary widely, depending on equipment type, your home’s layout, desired features, local labor costs and any necessary changes to existing system components.

A general price range would be $4,000 to $8,500 for a heating and air conditioning system with basic installation and features.

Additional features will add to the cost, and include air purifying systems, new insulated ductwork,

Q: I’m trying to find a current value for an unopened 1974 Lionstone Lonely Luke figural decanter. The figure is an old cowboy sitting on a stump with a bottle in his hand and cup on the stump. The decanter is 10½ inches tall and is still filled with whiskey. All the original labels still are on and very readable. What is it worth?

A: Limited-edition figural liquor decanters were very popular in the 1970s but don’t sell well today.

Prices have gone down.

Lonely Luke decanters were part of Lionstone’s Old West series of decanters. They held whiskey, port or liqueur. Collectors like the miniature version, 43⁄8 inches tall, issued in

1975. It sells for about $5 today.

Q: I have a breakfast set of four place settings of Franciscan Strawberry Fair dishes. I would like to sell the set.

A: From 1980 to 1982, Franciscan made two strawberry patterns, Strawberry Fair and Strawberry Time, on the same shapes. Strawberry Fair has a cream-colored background and Strawberry Time a green-tinted background. Sets of dishes are hard to sell. You can

humidifiers, programmable thermostats and more.

Seek multiple bids from HVAC contractors who are appropriately licensed, insured and bonded, and who have positive consumer reviews on a trusted online site.

Keep in mind that November through March is the busy season for heating contractors. You might get a better deal if you seek bids between April and October. Also, check with your local utility or HVAC contractor to see if you qualify for incentives or rebates.

Angie Hicks is the founder of Angie’s List, www.angieslist.com, a resource for consumer reviews.

Tony Award-winning director Kenny Leon is working with NPR’s science correspondent and theater writers and actors to create the show.

NPR says it hopes the series will help raise money.

Q: My parents gave me their antique bedroom set.

It includes a nightstand, twin beds, a dresser with a mirror and a chest of drawers. Each piece is stamped “West End Furniture Company, Rockford, Illinois.”

I was told the wood is golden oak. Can you give me information on the company?

A: West End Furniture Co. was in business in Rockford from 1890 to 1941. The company made bedroom furniture, bookcases, buffets, desks, folding beds, tables and other furniture and offered lines of “medium” and “fine grade” furniture.

Many Swedish furniture makers settled in Rockford, and at one time it was the second largest center of furniture manufacturing in the world.

DAILY CROSSWORD

It’s hard to meet new people in a new town Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: Can having a desk job where you literally spend all day staring at a screen, and 95 percent of the interaction you have with people is through email and IM, make you crazy?

I guess it doesn’t help that I live alone and all my friends are married so I rarely see them so I just end up home with the cat and the TV every evening. But I’m starting to feel so isolated and trapped in my own head that I might as well be on a deserted island. I meet people, but friendships just don’t develop like they did when I was younger. I meet people I’d like to date and they seem interested at first, even plan some dates, but nothing happens.

I’m starting to feel like I should get a therapist just so I have someone to talk to because if I don’t, I’m just going to lose all connection to the human race. — Losing My Mind?

Yes, you can lose your mind from the lack of human contact. (You can also lose your mind from an abundance of human contact, but we give disproportionate airtime to that.)

I wish I had an easier or cleverer answer, but you need to force yourself off your couch. Obvious, but that’s all there is. Until you form

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT emotional bonds to new people, you’ll have to count on a common purpose to hold you there, or just proximity. The usual suspects: a regular gig somewhere, like volunteering, a rec sports team, a class in something fun; or just being a regular [dusts off the “Cheers” theme, on cassette]; or having roommates; or becoming a Big Brother/Big Sister/ Best Buddy. There’s no shame in having to work to make friends.

Re: Losing Mind: Meetup! — Anonymous OK! Re: Losing Mind: I am in the exact same situation. I am trying to get out and do at least a little something different, like signing up for meetups (which have actually gone quite well; most people are nice and like meeting new people).

Sometimes I feel a little resentful that I have to put in so much effort, when personal interactions come so naturally to others, but I’m trying precisely to keep from losing my mind. — Anonymous 2 If it will help blunt the resentment: This is one of the questions/ complaints I receive most frequently. Almost all humans need some company, and the increasing isolation of our culture and the difficulty of meeting people post-school are two powerful currents to fight.

It’s nowhere close to being just you.

Re: Losing Mind: I recently moved to a new town where I know only one person besides my co-workers. Go home to a cat. This week, I decided to see a therapist, “just to check in,” and spent almost the whole session crying. But it helped, and I’ll be going back. It’s sometimes tough to make new friends when you’re an adult. — Anonymous 3 I see your “sometimes,” and raise you an “almost always.” There’s a reason pedestrian-friendly neighborhoods are among the most expensive; suburbia’s home-carwork-errands-car-home loop enables total isolation. We want to walk to a show, stop at a cafe on the way home, actually use our voices sometimes.

Wife’s vacuum cleaning THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE grosses husband out 16 Subject of National

CLUES

1 Corn or cotton

Dear Abby: My wife cleans our hand-held vacuum in the kitchen sink.

I think this particular appliance is probably the dirtiest one in the house and should be cleaned outside, not where food is prepared.

She says she cleans the sink thoroughly afterward. I’m grossed out by the whole thing. — Peeved Up North Dear Peeved: I think you’re grossed out by the IDEA that your vacuum is the dirtiest appliance in the house, but please calm yourself. People wash all kinds of things in the kitchen sink — children, pet dishes, the soles of shoes. As long as your wife cleans and sanitizes the sink afterward, you should be safe.

Dear Abby: My four girls and I recently moved from Texas to Florida to help out my in-laws. My husband, “Jeff,” made a big deal about not wanting to move without a job, so he stayed behind. Now I feel like a single parent, and even though I hide it from my daughters, I am depressed. I haven’t been able to find work, and Jeff says he doesn’t want to come here for several more months.

We’ve been together 14 years, and this is tearing me up inside. He seems to be treating this issue as a joke.

I suspect he likes not having the responsibility of a wife and kids. Our youngest is 6 months old and she’s growing up without her daddy!

— Lonely and Depressed Dear Lonely: How long has this been going on? Three weeks? Three months? Tell your husband that because you can no longer tolerate being separated, you are moving back to Texas. Be sure to mention that the responsibility of helping HIS parents should not be yours alone. Your concerns about your baby girl are valid. She should RIP HAYWIRE

be bonding with both her parents right now — and the separation may make it more difficult for her.

Dear Abby: Last February we lost my 14-year-old niece to suicide. Needless to say, it has been very hard on the family, especially her father, who is my brother. The two of them were inseparable.

Her mother has been playing the “perfect mother” card since then, even though all they did was fight. Her latest move has the entire family appalled.

“Mom” is planning a birthday party for my niece, with a DJ and everything, even though she never had one for her while she was alive.

We are all worried about my brother’s state of emotional well being and how he will respond once he finds out. How do I approach her with my concerns and put a stop to the party? — Apalled Aunt in the East Dear Appalled: You shouldn’t and you can’t.

Have a talk with your brother about this and suggest grief counseling for himself and his wife if they haven’t already had any. The poor woman may be planning to have the party out of guilt because she didn’t host one while her daughter was alive, or because her relationship with the girl wasn’t a good one. She may also be unable to accept that her child is gone and not thinking rationally. What a sad situation.

In a team match, both Wests led a spade against 3NT. East put up the queen, and South won since a club shift might be troublesome. He next led a diamond to dummy’s jack.

One East took the queen and returned the ten of spades.

South played low, won the third spade and forced out the ace of diamonds. Since East had no more spades, South

At the other table, East smoothly let dummy’s jack of diamonds win — the simple technique of letting declarer’s first try at a repeatable finesse win. South returned a heart to his king and led a second diamond, and East took his queen and led the jack of hearts.

South refused the trick — dummy’s ace was his entry to the diamonds — but East next led the ten of spades.

South had to play low, and West overtook and led the queen of hearts, killing dummy. Down two.

Bid three hearts. If you have a game, it’s more likely to be at hearts, where partner’s double implies good support, not just a tolerance.

SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY 25 years ago (1989) Everett Alexander, a farmer and dike commissioner on Ebey Island just east of Everett, said a combination of wind and tides brought flood waters to within a few inches of topping dikes on the north end of the island. Snohomish County was spared the kind of flood damage seen in Whatcom County.

Anthony Rodriguez, of Everett, an Edmonds Community College music student, was called the “Pavarotti of Produce” by some. A checker at the Lynnwood Haggen store, he often serenaded his customers.

50 years ago (1964) Karen Hansen, an Everett Junior College student, was awarded a scholarship by the South Everett Commercial Club. The award was presented by Stan Heim, the club’s scholarship chair; Bob Dickson, club president, and Jerry Foss, EJC executive dean and comptroller.

Today was the grand opening of Everett’s second Herfy’s, located at 5034 Claremont Ave. It was operated by Fred Schmidt and Bill and Anna Lucas.

A third would open in Salem, Oregon, in about 60 days, and a fourth would open in the Seattle area. The first was at 21st Street and Broadway in Everett.

THE DAILY HERALD

Tracing the lasting comic legacy of Bob Hope

By Frazier Moore Associated Press

While today he may be thought of with misgivings, if at all, Bob Hope reigned for much of the last century as America’s wisecracking avatar of comedy.

By the time he died in 2003 at age 100, Hope had conquered vaudeville, Broadway, recordings, live concerts, radio, films and, from its infancy, TV, where he remained a welcome presence into his 90s.

“By nearly any measure, he was the most popular entertainer of the twentieth century,” writes Richard Zoglin.

That alone should bear out Hope’s career-long theme song, “Thanks for the Memory.” Yet memories of Hope have already dimmed, and his achievements, still felt by performers and audiences alike, now are largely taken for granted.

Aiming to correct that, Zoglin, an arts writer and editor for Time magazine, has drawn on his enduring fascination and years

“Hope: Entertainer of the Century,” a biography of Bob Hope by Richard Zoglin.

of research to produce “Hope: Entertainer of the Century” (Simon & Schuster), the first major biography of this towering figure. It’s a thorough, evenhanded and absorbing portrait of the man who, beyond his vast exposure through the media, “may well have been seen in person by more people than any other human being in history,” Zoglin writes.

From childhood, Zoglin loved Bob Hope for his

zingers churned out by his stable of writers, not him, but mined from his persona and the world he shared with his audience.

They were cheeky and relatable and, even when they touched on hot-button issues, they were carefully crafted to ruffle no one’s feathers. Consider this relic dating from Sen. Joseph McCarthy’s Red Scare of the 1950s: “McCarthy is going to disclose the names of 2 million Communists.

He just got his hands on a Moscow telephone book.”

Thus did Hope as a jokester maintain a close but not too close relationship with relevance, while staying safely far afield of the partisan.

Hope’s ties to Richard Nixon, and his all-too-vocal support of the Vietnam War did him grave harm among the under-30 generation, a portion of which never forgave him.

But that stood as the lone misstep during a career that seemed blessed not only by Hope’s talent but also by his enterprise and impeccable timing.

After 13 years, Garth Brooks returns with new album Garth Brooks, “Man Against Machine” (RCA Nashville) Garth Brooks strives for an epic statement on his re-entry into full-time recording, after a 13-year hiatus.

Unlike most modern male country stars, Brooks looks beyond partying and celebrating rural life on “Man Against Machine.”

Brooks positions himself as a cultural figurehead who speaks for, and to, the

films, including the classic “Road” comedies he made with Bing Crosby, and the zippy monologues that were a staple of his TV specials.

Then the idea for a biography struck as Zoglin researched his first book, “Comedy at the Edge: How Stand-up in the 1970s Changed America.”

“I talked to all those comedians, from (George) Carlin through (Jerry) Seinfeld, and I would ask them who their influences were,” recalled Zoglin in a recent interview. “Nobody once mentioned Bob Hope. I thought that was really unjust because, in my opinion, he invented their art form. That made me want to take a closer look at him.”

Hope the father of standup?

Zoglin explained, “Instead of packaged routines that were part of their own self-contained world, Hope took topicality and turned it into jokes — what standup comics do today.”

And he was doing it as early as the 1930s.

common man.

To his credit, Brooks represents the middle class who work too many hours and devote their earnings to getting by in a society that’s “rotten to the core,” as he states in the title song, which pits a desperate man making a stand against an Orwellian power structure.

The album shows the influence of country rockers Jason Aldean and Eric Church in its heavy guitars and dark-hued themes.

But he doesn’t go for autotuned vocals, rhythm loops or rapping. The songs are weighty and wordy, taking up where his albums “Scarecrow” and “In the Life of Chris Gaines” left off.

Some tunes — “She’s Tired of Boys” and “Midnight Train” — could benefit from the concise editing that defines the best country songwriting.

However, the unabashed sentiment of “Mom,” the cowboy swing of “Rodeo and Juliet” and the jaunty, dobro-led “Wrong About You” suggest the possibilities of country music in the 2010s just as Brooks’ classics did in the 1990s.

Now, like then, Brooks’ desire to address life’s important themes should be welcomed into a country music scene that rarely shows such ambition these days.
