STANWOOD — The YMCA has purchased a site for its sixth center in Snohomish County, cementing the future of a Stanwood-Camano facility that has been in the works for four years.

If the county succeeds in buying rights-of-way, work on improving congestion and safety concerns on Seattle Hill Road could begin in 2017.

EVERETT — As the owner of a local tow truck company, John Guihan sees the devastation caused by drunken driving.

This year, he’s trying to do something about it before he’s called to clean it up.

“Our goal is to prevent tragedy,” said Guihan, who owns American Towing in Everett.

MILL CREEK — From wagon track, to rural crossroads, to fullfledged suburbia, the area once known as Osborn’s Corner only promises to get busier.

Morning and afternoon commutes along Seattle Hill Road have slowed, even as buildings sprout on all sides. An $8 million grant infusion aims to help Snohomish County ease traffic problems through this corridor on the eastern edge of Mill Creek.

The state and federal money materialized this fall.

If the county succeeds in buying rights of way, work to widen the two-lane arterial could get going in 2017, county engineer Owen Carter said.

“You have traffic congestion.

You also have safety problems for both bicycles and pedestrians,” Carter said. “Until these grants came through, we would not have been able to follow through with construction.”

The work is planned for 1.6 miles of Seattle Hill Road, from 132nd Street SE to 35th Avenue SE. The improvements would add a continuous center lane as well as bike lanes, curbs and sidewalks on both sides of the road.

Work is expected to take place over two summers, Carter said.

State traffic data for 2013 show an average of 27,000 daily car trips through the area.

Seattle Hill Road is important to Mill Creek because it skirts the city’s East Gateway Urban Village, south of 132nd Street. New apartments and townhomes there now cover the former Henry’s Plant Farm. A recently built medical office building stands nearby.

The city’s vision for the area was to encourage development along the lines of Mill Creek Town Center, but with more homes mixed in with stores and office space.

For city leaders, the work on Seattle Hill Road should make the area more pleasant to travel by foot or bike, as well as by car.

The YMCA has been looking for a home in Stanwood since 2010, when people approached the nonprofit in hopes of getting a new pool in town for swimming lessons, competitions and open swims.

Volunteers realized a pool wasn’t the only thing needed in Stanwood

On average, American Towing responds to 10 drunken driving calls a night every weekend, including accidents and traffic stops. But that number tends to go up during the holidays as people celebrate.

“We’d like to cut that number in half this year, and hopefully, as people hear about what we’re doing, half again next year,” Guihan said.

The Washington State Patrol has been conducting emphasis patrols for impaired drivers since Nov. 25. As of 5 a.m. Tuesday, they’d made 189 drunken driving arrests in

YMCA programs are paid for by mix of membership fees and contributions like donations, grants or endowments. So far, staff and volunteers have raised about $8.4 million to build a Stanwood-Camano center. Once they hit $9.6 million, the organization plans to break ground.

The goal is to do so by mid-2015.

“We removed 189 unsafe drivers from the roads, and that is potentially 189 lives saved,” trooper Travis Shearer said. The cost of a DUI easily can reach upward of $20,000 in fines and fees, he said.

The $50 fee usually charged for a Home Safe trip doesn’t cover costs, so the towing company loses money, Guihan said.

“We are not sticklers about the money,” he said. “For veterans who can’t pay, they ride for free all the time. For people who are earnestly down on their luck, we will help them out with a free ride from time to time. We do what we can to give back to people.”

project will cost $18 million. Once it opens, the YMCA could hire up to 100 people, mostly parttime, Washburn said.

The new center will need instructors, desk clerks and lifeguards.

“We absolutely will be relying heavily on local people for our hiring,” he said.

Planners haven’t decided what features to include in the building. Figuring out space needs and layout is the next step, while fundraising continues to close the nearly $10 million gap between the money raised and the project budget.

“Programs are just being developed,” Kettler said.

“We know it’ll have some kind of pool or aquatic center.”

It also is likely to be two stories tall, with classrooms, event spaces and a fitness center. The YMCA tries to customize each center to suit the community it’s in, Washburn said.

The organization also is working on a plan to replace its Everett facility at 2720 Rockefeller Ave., Washburn said. No other new centers are planned.

The work also aims to improve drainage. Porous sidewalk pavement would allow rainwater to seep through, rather than stream into gutters.

Right-of-way negotiations involve more than 50 parcels of land.

Other aspects of the project aim to improve sight lines and smooth out curves. No new traffic signals are proposed.

Boy, 16, charged in coffee stand holdups

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

BOTHELL — A 16-year-old boy is accused of being armed with an Airsoft gun while robbing two espresso stands earlier this month.

The boy told Snohomish County sheriff’s detectives the “risk was worth the reward” when they asked him why he held up two baristas. He made

off with about $500 before he was caught.

Prosecutors have charged the boy with first-degree robbery.

Because of the seriousness of the crime and his age, the teen is being prosecuted as an adult.

The first robbery happened Dec. 4 in the 1700 block of 188th Place SE. The suspect walked up to the window and ordered a latte. When the barista turned to make the drink, he put on a pair

of sunglasses, placed a backpack on the counter and pointed a gun at the woman. He demanded that she put cash from the register in his backpack.

The robbery was caught on the stand’s surveillance video.

A week later a second stand was hit in the 19300 block of Bothell-Everett Highway. The robber followed the same pattern. He ordered a drink, donned sunglasses and demanded money at

gunpoint. The barista was scared and had trouble opening the cash register. He yelled at the woman, calling her derogatory names.

That robbery also was caught on video.

The suspect’s photograph was circulated and a school resource officer from Jackson High School recognized the boy. He had been expelled from school and was listed as a runaway, court papers said.

The teen was arrested last week and admitted that he robbed the stands, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Craig Matheson wrote. He told police he used an Airsoft gun, placing black tape on the barrel to disguise any markings that would reveal it wasn’t a real handgun.

The boy was sentenced last month for an unrelated assault.

There was a warrant for his arrest at the time of the robberies.

‘The best Christmas gift’ Russell the puppy will help recovering teen regain an active life

By Rikki King Herald Writer

EVERETT — For weeks, Brittney Davison texted her sister, Brianne, at college: The puppy is coming.

Brittney, 15, finally got the 2-month-old Yorkshire terrierChihuahua mix Friday from the Everett Animal Shelter. She named him Russell, after the Seahawks quarterback.

The shelter donated Russell to Brittney, who is recovering from a brain tumor discovered last

year. She also has a condition that affects her nervous system.

She’s been on a feeding tube for months and has had multiple surgeries, with more hospital time planned next year.

The family already has one rescue dog, 9-year-old Dalmation-mix Riley, but Riley doesn’t like the noise of the feeding tube pump.

Brittney, the third of Stacy and Neil Davison’s four children, has kept a 3.9 GPA and a modified schedule at Glacier Peak High School. She likes science classes

the best and wants to become a doctor. She knits and she bakes.

She made an elaborate, twotiered cake for Brianne’s 18th birthday.

Her condition makes walking and sitting up exhausting.

She needs to slowly increase her activity. Russell will help with that. They took their first walk in their Silver Lake neighborhood Monday.

For now, Russell is content lying on his back on a loveseat with Brittney and Brianne while they rub his belly. His cuddles

come with sharp teeth and wet kisses.

Russell was “the best Christmas gift I could ask for,” Brittney said. She sees a little Seahawks jersey in his future.

Brittney’s mom recently found her sitting on her bedroom floor, holding up her laptop to play dog-themed music for Russell, who was in his crate.

“He was zonked, sound asleep, from listening to this puppy Christmas music,” Stacy Davison said. “I was like, ‘This puppy is loved.’ ”

hristmas in Dalia Shomaly’s hometown is unlike anywhere else.

“Tourists are always there, but this is the most amazing week of the year,” the 16-year-old said.

“People come from all over the world.”

Dalia’s home is in Bethlehem, where the Gospel of Luke tells us the Christ child was born.

Today, the city of Bethlehem — six miles south of Jerusalem — is part of the Palestiniangoverned West Bank.

The teen is attending Everett’s Cascade High School her junior year as an exchange student with the Youth Exchange and Study program. The U.S. State Department’s YES program offers scholarships for exchanges between students in largely Muslim places and the United States.

Dalia’s family is part of Bethlehem’s Christian minority.

She is Roman Catholic and has Orthodox Christian relatives.

At home, she attends Latin Patriarchate School, a Catholic school in Bethlehem with about 300 students.

She is staying with the family of Jim Romack, lead pastor of New Life Church in Everett. “We talk almost every day about life in Bethlehem,” said Romack, whose 17-year-old daughter, Emmy, attends Cascade.

Sewer rates on tap to continue rising

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

front porch

EVERETT — New sewer rates will go into effect July 1 next year as part of general passel of increases that are likely to continue through the next decade.

On Dec. 17 the Everett City Council passed two ordinances, the first of which sets sewer rates for 2015 and 2016, and the second of which is the city’s $320 million plan to revamp its aging sewer and stormwater system.

The combined sewerstormwater system in the city’s north end led to major flooding in 2013. The city estimates it will pay out $4.5 million in settlements to homes and businesses affected by the floods.

The 10-year sewer plan calls for rates to continue to rise from 5.2 percent to 10.2 percent per year, with single family rates nearly doubling to an estimated $110 per month by 2024.

Those longer-term rates would need to be enacted as

EdCC plans ag project Edmonds Community College has received a $9,500 grant from the Sustainable Path Foundation to construct an aquaponics system.

In the near term, sewer rates for single-family houses will rise to $54.42 per month July 1, 2015, and then to $59.87 Jan. 1, 2016.

The surface water fee will likewise rise to $15.17 per month on July 1, 2015, and then to $17.44

46% live in ‘traditional’ families Researchers are in general agreement that children of unmarried parents tend to have a tougher time in life.

By Christopher Ingraham The Washington Post

Picture the typical American family: What do you see? You probably imagine a married mom and dad with a couple of kids — think the Draper family, circa Season 1 of “Mad Men.” You probably know that that ideal has held true for fewer and fewer families over the

decades. But new data from the Pew Research Center shows that fewer than half of American kids now grow up in one of these “traditional” families.

As of 2013, only 46 percent of U.S. kids live in a traditional family structure of two parents in their first marriage.

An additional 15 percent live with a parent who has been remarried at least once, 34 percent live with a single parent, and 5 percent have no parent at home — this latter group is most likely living with a grandparent, according to Pew. By contrast, 73 percent of American kids lived with a traditional family back in 1960.

It’s clear that the change is less a function of remarriages, and more due to the sharp rise in single parenting.

As The Post’s Emily Badger wrote last week, 41 percent of births these days are to unmarried mothers. Among black mothers, that figure rises to an astonishing 72 percent.

Researchers are in general agreement that children of unmarried parents tend to have a tougher time in life: more poverty, more instability, and more problems at school, among other things.

But it’s less clear what type of policy measures we might take to address these issues.

It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to encourage mothers to stay in relationships that may be abusive or otherwise more harmful to their children’s health than going it alone. But it’s clear that the American family has changed dramatically over the past 50 years, and will likely continue to evolve.

If policymakers of any political stripe want to help American families succeed, the first step is coming to grips with what that dramatic change looks like.

For the majority of U.S. children, the traditional nuclear family is an ideal that doesn’t reflect reality.

Federal health officials are recommending an end to the nation’s lifetime ban on blood donations from gay and bisexual men, a 31-year-old policy that many medical groups and gay activists say is no longer justified.

Golf ballsized hail fell in Enterprise, Mississippi, along with some pea-sized hail in the Bude area.

Flooding also was forecast in several areas because of several inches of rain piling up.

Already in Tallahassee, Florida, the weather service tweeted that travel was strongly discouraged and that several water rescues were in progress.

At least 6 inches of rain had hit the area in a short time.

Sony to release ‘The Interview’ Associated Press

Florida now third most-populous state

D.C.: Gay blood donations

Associated Press JACKSON, Miss. — Severe weather slamming the southern U.S. two days before Christmas killed at least four people, flipped cars, knocked out power to thousands and damaged several homes and businesses.

In Mississippi, Gov. Phil Bryant declared an emergency for two southeastern counties where officials say four people died in the storms and several more were injured. His office said thousands were without power Tuesday night around Columbia, which is about 80 miles southeast of Jackson.

Jones County Emergency Management director Marda Tullos said a man and woman were killed inside a mobile home in the storm’s path in Laurel. About 50 miles southwest, Marion County coroner Norma Williamson tells WDAM that two people were killed in Columbia. One person was in a trailer park, another at a strip mall.

She said the Marion County hospital emergency room in Columbia was dealing with many patients.

Photos tweeted by several local media and the National Weather Service in Jackson showed damage to a Walgreens, car dealership, day care and the strip mall.

Meteorologist Latrice Maxie said significant damage has been reported to homes and businesses in the city of about 6,500 people. A survey team will be sent Wednesday to determine whether a tornado was responsible, she said.

Storm spotters said it was.

“It’s chaos over here,” Williamson said. “ All the lines are down.”

step of the film’s release, we are proud to make it available to the public and to have stood up to those who attempted to suppress free speech.”

A few small movie theaters in Washington state will be among those showing “The Interview” as part of Sony’s limited Christmas Day release of the film.

David McRae, owner of independent Ark Lodge Cinemas in Seattle’s Columbia City neighborhood, said Tuesday he had received permission from Sony Entertainment to show the comedy.

The Blue Fox Drive-In in Oak Harbor, on Whidbey Island, said on its website it planned to show “The Interview” this Friday, Saturday and Sunday

nights. The Grand Cinema in Tacoma announced on its Facebook page that it would show the film once a day, at 9:20 p.m., for a week, beginning Thursday.

For Sony, the decision was the culmination of a gradual about-face: After initially saying it had no plans to release the movie, the company began softening its position after it was broadly criticized.

Moviegoers celebrated the abrupt change in fortune for a film that appeared doomed as “The Interview” began popping up in the listings of independent theaters across the country Tuesday, from Atlanta to Los Angeles. The film is set to open in more than 200 theaters Thursday, the day it

was originally set for release.

Sony officials aren’t commenting on whether the film will also be released to video on demand — another possibility.

One of the loudest critics of the film’s shelving, President Barack Obama, hailed Sony’s reversal.

“The president applauds Sony’s decision to authorize screenings of the film,” said Obama spokesman Eric Schultz. “As the president made clear, we are a country that believes in free speech, and the right of artistic expression. The decision made by Sony and participating theaters allows people to make their own choices about the film, and we welcome that outcome.”

No rules for spent bullets A federal appeals court has ruled against environmentalists who are trying to force the Environmental Protection Agency to regulate spent lead bullets and lead shot used in hunting and shooting sports. Ruling in favor of hunters and target shooters, the U.S. District Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said that environmental groups have suggested no way in which EPA could regulate spent lead bullets and shot without also regulating cartridges and shells. The Toxic Substances Control Act exempts cartridges and shells from regulation.

Colorado: Armed potheads?

Colorado was the first state to legalize recreational marijuana sales. Now the state’s voters may consider a ballot measure to allow pot smokers to carry a concealed firearm. The “Colorado Campaign for Equal Gun Rights” is working to put a question on the November 2016 ballot to have the state ignore guidelines from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives about firearms and pot. The measure would change state law to prevent sheriffs from denying concealed carry permits because of marijuana use.

Illinois: Oldest man dies A man recognized as the oldest in the U.S. has died at 110. C. Conrad Johnson died Tuesday. The Swedish-born Johnson worked as a carpenter and lived in Rockford most of his life. On his 109th birthday, he said, “I feel good and I haven’t been sick for a long, long time.”

But he suffered a stroke a few months later. The Rev. Jane McChesney of Tabor Lutheran Church knew Johnson. She described him as smart, good-humored, “a self-made man” and “very giving.”

Several American women are older.

AROUND THE WORLD Algeria: Militant is killed Soldiers tracked down and killed the head of an Islamic militant group that beheaded a French hostage on video three months ago, the defense ministry said Tuesday. The execution of kidnapped French hiker Herve Gourdel by militants swearing fealty to the Islamic State shocked France and drew condemnation from around the world.

The military operation Monday east of Algiers targeted Abdelmalek Gouri, identified as the leader of the militant group Soldiers of the Caliphate, the ministry said.

Kuwait finalizes 777 order

By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Boeing Co. and Kuwait Airways finalized an order for 10 777-300ERs, a deal worth $3.3 billion at list price, the airplane maker announced Tuesday.

Kuwait Airways had said in November that it intended to order the twin-aisle, long-haul jetliners.

The airline’s CEO, Rasha Al Roumi, praised the airplane in a statement from Boeing.

“Kuwait Airways has plans to renew its fleet as well as expand its operations and the 777-300ER is a perfect airplane for our strategy,” Al Roumi said. “The airplane has already validated its position in terms of high reliability, low operating costs and fuel

The aerospace industry in the Middle East continues to enjoy a phenomenal growth.

efficiency. We are looking forward to having the 777-300ER join our fleet.”

The 777-300ER has a 99.5 percent dispatch reliability, according to Boeing.

A high dispatch reliability means the airplane is hardly ever the reason for not leaving the gate on time.

Boeing has logged more than 50 orders for 777s this year. But it has more to go to keep the

assembly line in Everett working at full capacity until after the 777X goes into service with airlines in 2020.

Boeing executives, including Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Ray Conner, have said the company can get enough orders to stay at current production levels.

“This order marks another feather in the cap for the 777300ER, which not only continues

to be an integral part of the fleet of many of the world’s airlines, but is also being ordered by new customers who see the value of the airplane,” Conner said. “The aerospace industry in the Middle East continues to enjoy a phenomenal growth, and we are proud to be part of that growth and look forward to an enduring relationship with Kuwait Airways.”

Boeing also announced Tuesday that Azerbaijan Airlines has taken delivery of its first 787 Dreamliner, making it the first airline in a post-Soviet state to operate a 787.

The airline’s president, Jahangir Askerov, said the Dreamliner is a good fit for the company’s plans to expand its long-haul fleet.

To date, 58 customers have ordered 1,055 787 Dreamliners, according to Boeing.

Cider school trains brewers “It’s the fastest-growing alcoholic beverage in the U.S.,” class coordinator says.

MOUNT VERNON — The clock ticked down as Geoffrey Burton filled a small graduated cylinder with a precise mixture of pear and apple juice concentrate for his group’s hard cider blend.

For the final exercise of the fourth day in an intensive hard cider course, Burton and his small team were tasked with blending various ingredients into what instructor and cider expert Peter Mitchell classified as “an easy-drinking cider for a summer barbecue.”

As cider explodes in popularity across the country and around the Northwest, cider production classes organized by the Mount Vernon-based Northwest Agriculture Business Center have helped hobby cider makers from around the world move into business and refine their products.

Practicing one of the last steps in the cider-making process, the 24 students carefully combined sour-tasting base ciders — simple fermented apple juice from either dessert or cider-specific apples — with sugar, juice concentrates, water, honey, spices and acid to complete the assignment.

They had less than an hour, and results were judged.

“It’s not something I can stand up and tell them what to do. It’s fairly simple. You just mix stuff together to figure out what tastes good, right?” said Mitchell, who flew in from the United Kingdom to teach the weeklong course at the Washington State University Northwestern Washington Research and Extension Center in Mount Vernon.

Mitchell said the “principles and practices” course is designed to give students a complete overview of cider production.

Monday and Tuesday covered cider’s history, the current market for hard cider and a lot of taste-testing to develop student palettes.

“We do a lot of taste-testing to get people to experience a whole range of ciders and perry, which is made from pears,” Mitchell said. “It’s one of the most important skills they have to develop.”

Then Mitchell leads students through the production process, from apple selection to processing, pressing, fermentation,

Feds offer support for port labor talks Federal mediators have offered to get involved in negotiations to resolve a labor dispute between longshoremen and shipping lines that threatens to disrupt movement of goods through West Coast ports. The U.S. Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service said Tuesday it will reach out promptly to both sides. The offer follows a request for mediation from the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents shipping lines and cargo terminal operators. Longshoremen who load and unload cargo at 29 ports from Seattle to San Diego have been working without a contract since July. Shippers say both sides remain “far apart” on many issues.

U.S. economy grows at 5 percent The U.S. economy grew at a sizzling 5 percent annual rate last quarter, the fastest since 2003, fueled by consumer and business spending. The surge confirmed that the economy is steadily improving and outshining others around the world. The news helped lift the Dow Jones industrial average above 18,000 for the first time.

And it could shape the Federal Reserve’s decision on when to raise interest rates from record lows. In its report Tuesday, the government sharply upgraded third-quarter growth from its previous 3.9 percent estimate.

Much of the increase came from consumer spending on health care and business spending on structures and software.

“From apple to glass, as they say,” Mitchell said.

Between 2005 and 2012, hard cider production in the U.S. tripled to 688,000 barrels, according to Mitchell. He said in 2014, production is already 70 percent greater than in 2013.

“There are not enough bittersweet, bittersharp and heirloom apples to support the artisan part of the industry,” Mitchell said.

Marc Dowd, 39, came from his small family-owned orchard in Yakima to take part in both the business course and the weeklong production class.

He wanted to learn more about the cider industry before changing up to half his orchard of dessert apples to cider-specific varieties and opening his own cidery, he said.

“I wanted more of a wellrounded understanding of how to make cider. What does it take to move from hobby to business?” Dowd said. “It’s given me a framework to look ahead. I can now go back and do the legwork that’s needed. It’s very helpful.”

American Airlines’ CEO is rewarding employees who have already reached new labor agreements with the company with an extra 4percent raise. The raise, which is added to employee’s base salaries, will also go to all managers below the level of director. He is also dangling the raise at the airline’s pilots who are fighting with him over a new contract. The pilots can either take the raise, in addition to a multi-year deal that’s already been proposed to them, or forego the raise and move forward with a deal set out in arbitration.

Keurig recalling Mini Plus brewers Keurig is recalling more than 7 million of its single-serve coffee brewing machines after reports that a number of them had spewed hot liquids and injured dozens of users. The recall is for Keurig’s Mini Plus brewers that were made between 2009 and 2014. Keurig received about 200 reports of hot liquid spraying from the brewer, including 90 reports of burnrelated injuries. Customers who own the brewers can contact the company at 844255-7886 and have a repair kit sent for free. Keurig said the kit will fix the issue. The company warned customers waiting for the kit to keep an arm’s length away from the brewers and not brew more than two cups in quick succession.

THE DAY ON WALL STREET In a year full of market milestones, Wall Street crushed a couple more Tuesday, lifting the Dow past the 18,000-point mark for the first time and delivering the S&P 500 its second record-high close in two days. Investors welcomed the latest encouraging news on the economy as the government said the U.S. grew at the fastest pace in more than a decade in the third quarter. The economic report card raised expectations for greater demand for fuel, driving oil prices higher as well as energy stocks, which have been beaten down this year by the sharp decline in the price of crude.

No other details were released from the ongoing investigation.

The pair were crab fishing when their skiff capsized about 600 yards off Priest Point.

They were pulling up a crab pot after 1 p.m. when a wave came up and over the gunwale, causing the vessel to take on water,

according to Tulalip Police.

Tulalip Fish and Wildlife officers pulled both men from the water. They were taken to Providence Regional Medical Center Everett for evaluation, though no injuries were reported.

Tonight, she’ll join in candle-lighting for Christmas Eve services at New Life Church.

On June 17, it’s back to Bethlehem for her senior year. “I like to learn languages,” said Dalia, who is fluent in English, French and Arabic. She is taking Spanish and teaching herself Turkish. She wants to attend college in Jordan, and to become a translator or doctor.

“My parents want me to stay in Palestine, but I want to go out and explore more of the world,” she said. Last spring, she went to Paris.

In Everett, she has indulged in foods not available in Bethlehem.

Her favorite? A Taco Bell burrito.

Romack has four daughters. Two are home from college this Christmas. Adding Dalia to the household has been a joy. “Her parents and all of Bethlehem should be very, very proud,” the pastor said.

Romack has twice visited Bethlehem, and understands the security concerns in his guest’s homeland.

Earlier this year, the Palestinian territory of Gaza was bombed and invaded by Israeli forces, countering rocket fire from Gaza. Dalia said the West Bank has also become dangerous in places.

For the people of Palestine, barred from Israel’s airports, travel is hard. Her journey here began with a bus trip to Jordan, slowed by hours at checkpoints. She flew to Germany, then spent three days in Washington, D.C., before coming to Seattle.

Her Christmas memories of Bethlehem are happy ones.

Outside the Church of the Nativity, a huge tree is lit the week before Christmas. Crowds in Manger Square celebrate and hear music. “All the people from Palestine come. There are

Christmas songs, candy and balloons. Santa Claus is everywhere,” Dalia said.

Inside the Church of the Nativity, downstairs from the altar, is the Grotto of the Nativity, a cavern revered as the birthplace of Jesus.

On Christmas Eve, Dalia attends another church near her grandparents’ home. Along with her parents, she has two brothers, ages 14 and 10. After church, they bake Christmas cookies with her grandparents.

“They next day we go to my grandparents again, and have a big lunch,” she said. “We always dress up. The tradition is to go to all the houses we know, just to say Merry Christmas.”

Gifts are also exchanged. A red purse from her mother was a treasured gift one year.

Here, she sees different traditions. Romack said they visited Santa Claus at the Lake Forest Park Town Center so Dalia could share the picture with her parents.

IN OUR VIEW | Wilderness Act’s newest addition

Alpine Lakes marks act’s 50th What the National Defense Authorization Act has to do with any of several public lands bills that Congress passed along with it and President Barack Obama signed into law on Friday is anyone’s guess. But, in recognition of the time of year, let’s not look a gift reindeer in the mouth.

Among the lands measures worth noting in Washington state were: ■■The creation of the Manhattan Project National Historical Park, which will preserve the Hanford B Reactor at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation near Richland.

The reactor, the first fullsized nuclear reactor in the world, made the plutonium for the Trinity Test at Los Alamos, New Mexico and the bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, as well as much of the nuclear fuel used in the early days of the Cold War. It, and its sister reactors at Hanford, also produced

radioactive waste that was left to dangerously molder at the reservation. While this must be the first combination national park and Superfund site, we can hope that creation of the historical park, along with recognizing Washington state’s role in an important part of world history, will refocus attention on completing the long-delayed cleanup of Hanford.

■■The expansion by 22,000 acres of the Alpine Lakes Wilderness near Snoqualmie Pass and Wild and Scenic River designations for Middle Fork Snoqualmie and Pratt rivers.

While only about a fifth of the size of the Wild Sky Wilderness created by Congress in 2008, the expansion of Alpine Lakes is significant for a couple of reasons, said Tom Uniak of Washington Wild, which worked with Sen. Patty Murray and Reps. Dave Reichert and Suzan DelBene, on the measure, like Wild Sky

before it, a bipartisan effort by the state’s Congressional delegation.

About 50 percent of the additional acreage, Uniak said, lies below 3,000 feet altitude, helping to rebalance a disproportionate percentage of designated wilderness that is more rock and ice than forest.

Currently, only 6 percent of protected wilderness in Washington is below 3,000 feet.

That lower-elevation wilderness provides more protection of mature and old-growth forests and salmon- and troutspawning grounds and is more accessible for recreation.

The Wild and Scenic designation for the Pratt and Middle Fork Snoqualmie rivers adds to that watershed protection, Uniak said, but it also helped build support for the measure. The wilderness designation limits recreation to non-mechanized uses, and that includes mountain bikes.

Using the Wild and Scenic

designation, which isn’t as restrictive, the legislation was able to keep a popular trail along the Snoqualmie open to bikes, Uniak said, and secure that community’s support.

Likewise, Alpine Lakes supporters worked to respond to addressable concerns, adjusting boundaries so as not to effect avalanche control along I-90 or operations at the Alpental ski area.

Washington Wild now is focusing on similar wilderness designation for 126,000 acres of national forest land and Wild and Scenic designations for 19 rivers, this time on the Olympic Peninsula.

The expansion of Alpine Lakes makes a fitting cap for the 50th anniversary of the creation of the National Wilderness Act. As with Wild Sky and Alpine Lakes, it will likely take a few years to see the Wild Olympics bill reach the president’s desk, but it’s a good start on the act’s next 50 years.

imagine what all could be done if all policy were based on facts?

The second wonderful column was John Burbank’s, “We would do well to live by Advent’s ethics.” He reflects on how we currently celebrate the holidays with a vengeance of catalogues, push e-mails, long to-do lists, and gifts to buy, etc.

He states that we enable these material things to take over the spirit of the winter solstice.

How do we keep this from happening? He reflects that for Christians, this may be best embodied in the four Sundays before Christmas, each symbolizing an ethic of life. Then he continues by saying that “We want to believe that we are a hopeful, peaceful joyous and loving people. But challenges us by asking, “Are we?”

And the last one I’d like to

comment on is the letter by Charles Fay expressing praise for the Mukilteo School Board taking action on a model policy addressing the needs of its transgender students. I too, want to add my voice to praise them for taking that action. The more we can work to become a society that shows respect for anyone that is different from us, whether by the color of their skin, their religion or their sexual orientation, is the degree to which we will become a society that will be built on those values mentioned above of hope, peace, joy and love. But yes, as John Burbank mentioned, “this will take money and taxes. And yet that would be a true Christmas present ... for all of us.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■UNITED STATES

Founders sought religious freedom Regarding the letter about Israel, “U.S. shouldn’t aid a religious state”: The writer’s first sentence, “At the risk of being wrong...,” numerous Herald readers, who have studied history, probably stated that he is indeed wrong.

Our Founding Fathers never wrote the words, “Separation of church and state.” They made it clear that they did not want a “state church” like they had left in England. That they wanted total religious freedom without government interference.

If you really study America’s history, our Founding Fathers said that they expected church to be involved in politics and government.

GUEST COMMENTARY | Snohomish County ombudsman

Double-standard cost John Koster his job

By Tom McCabe

L

ike a growing number of conservatives trying to function in an environment dominated by intolerant liberals, my friend, John Koster, finds himself in the familiar position these days of having his livelihood taken away from him for nothing more than expressing his opinions.

Koster, you may remember, served three terms as a Republican on the Snohomish County Council and ran unsuccessfully in 2012 for Congress.

As a public figure, his views are no secret now, nor were they when he was appointed by the county as its first-ever ombudsman.

In this position, his job is to serve as a liaison between the

public and the county and, by all accounts, he’s performed his duties flawlessly.

In October, however, he signed on to a Freedom Foundation fundraising letter that read, “For too long, labor leaders have ripped off our hard-working teachers and state employees, forcing them to pay dues whether they want to be part of the union or not, then funneling that money to politicians at election time.”

Even worse, he described me as his “brother-in-arms of mine in the fight against union control of Washington.”

For his trouble, the unions saw to it he wasn’t reappointed to another two-year term.

“He clearly stepped out of bounds and he should not continue in this position,”

said Chris Dugovich, president of the AFSCME affiliate that represents most county employees.

By doing what, exactly?

Thinking? Exercising his First Amendment right to free speech?

“As long as he’s county ombudsman, I think he should refrain from taking strong political positions that could affect his job performance,” said Council Chairman Dave Somers.

Hogwash.

Anyone who knows John Koster as I do, knows his political opinions would never adversely affect his job performance. By the same token, anyone who thinks he’s going to renounce his core beliefs just to keep his government job has another think coming, too.

The point is, can you honestly imagine a liberal in the same position being trashed for taking a position consistent with his views on, say, the environment or same-sex marriage?

Of course not. To the Left, what they believe isn’t opinion at all. It’s the revealed word.

But let a conservative state his views unapologetically, and he deserves to be fired, tarred and feathered and run out of town.

It’s incidents like these that make me proud to stand on the right side of the issues and the right side of history — alongside patriots like John Koster.

Tom McCabe is the chief executive of the Freedom Foundation, an Olympiabased conservative think tank.

Protests against injustice aren’t against police

I

t is absurd to have to say this, but New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, activist Al Sharpton and President Obama are in no way responsible for the cold-blooded assassination of two police officers in Brooklyn on Saturday. Nor do the tens of thousands of Americans who have demonstrated against EUGENE ROBINSON police brutality in recent weeks bear any measure of blame.

A disturbed career criminal named Ismaaiyl Brinsley committed this unspeakable atrocity by himself, amid a spree of insane mayhem: Earlier in the day, he shot and critically wounded a woman he had been seeing; later, on a subway platform, he shot and killed himself.

Brinsley’s reported claim to be acting in some warped sense of revenge for the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner was delusional and illegitimate. Reasonable people understand this, of course.

But we live in unreasonable times.

Not for the first time, one of the loudest and least temperate voices has been that of former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.

“We’ve had four months of propaganda, starting with the president, that everybody should hate the police,” Giuliani said on Fox News. “I don’t care how you want to describe it, that’s what those protests are all about.”

No, no, no. The demonstrations sparked by the exoneration of the officers who killed Brown and Garner were pro-accountability, not anti-police. As I’ve pointed out many times, no one better appreciates the need for an active, engaged police presence than residents of high-crime neighborhoods. But nobody should be expected to welcome policing that treats whole communities as guilty until proved innocent — or a justice system that considers black and brown lives disposable.

New York police officials and union leaders should explain this to the officers who bitterly turned their backs on de Blasio as he arrived to pay his respects to slain policemen Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos.

Yet Ed Mullins, president of the police sergeants union, made this inflammatory charge: “Mayor de Blasio, the blood of these two officers is clearly on your hands.”

What did the mayor do to provoke such ire? During the campaign, he spoke out against the city’s stop-and-frisk policy — a stance validated by a federal judge who found the practice discriminatory against African-Americans and Hispanics.

And more recently, in talking about the Garner case, de Blasio told of how he had counseled his biracial son to be especially cautious and deferential in any encounter with police.

Saturday’s execution-style killings were immediately condemned in the strongest terms by Sharpton. Yet Sharpton later reported receiving death threats, apparently because of his role in calling attention to the Brown and Garner cases.

Those protest rallies were timely and necessary, however, as most police officials across the country seemed to understand. In New York, peaceful demonstrators marched while phalanxes of NYPD officers cleared the way. It should be obvious that hating perceived injustice is not the same thing as hating the police.

Brinsley had a long police record and a history of mental problems. Authorities say that early Saturday morning he went to a gated apartment complex in Owings Mills, a suburb of Baltimore, and shot a woman; she was critically injured but survived. Brinsley then traveled to New York, announcing via social media his intention to kill police officers. In one post, he wrote, “I’m Putting Wings On Pigs Today. They Take 1 Of Ours. ... .Let’s Take 2 of Theirs.”

In Brooklyn, Brinsley walked up and coldly shot Liu and Ramos as they sat in their police cruiser. Neither had the chance to unholster his weapon.

I don’t know the right way to make sense of such depravity. But I am certain that the way not to make sense of it is to blame nonviolent protesters, exercising their constitutional rights of assembly and speech, for the acts of a deranged killer.

Brinsley had somehow arrived at a day of personal apocalypse. He was beyond any rational search for reasons to commit a string of heinous acts. He needed only to give himself an excuse.

Jackson Board Room, 8th Floor, Robert J. Drewel Building M/S 609, 3000 Rockefeller, Ever- ett, Washington to consider the following: ORDINANCE NO. 14-128 MAKING AN EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION IN THE INSURANCE FUND 506 OF THE 2014 BUDGET TO PROVIDE EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY FOR THE PAYMENT OF LIABILITY CLAIM SETTLEMENTS BE IT ORDAINED:

1VCMJD /PUJDFT

Section 1. The Council makes the following findings of fact: An emergency appropriation in the Snohomish County Insurance Fund 506 for the 2014 budget year, in the amount of $2,592,131, is nec- essary to provide additional expenditure authority for the payment of liability claim settlements. The volume of claims settled has been more than anticipated and additional appropriation is necessary to satisfy these claims.

Section 2. The appropriation unit and allocation detail follows: 506 Snohomish County Insurance Fund EXPENDITURE: 506.512 471 4616 General Liability $ 2,592,131 Total Emergency Appropriation:

$ 2,592,131 REVENUE: 506 Snohomish County Insurance Fund 506.312 471 0800 Fund Balance

$ 2,592,131 Total Revenue:

$ 2,592,131 Section 3. Council finds as a fact that there is a need for addi- tional fund expenditure authority to pay liability claim settlements that were more than anticipated. The need for this appropriation was not known and could not have been determined prior to the adoption of the 2014 budget. The Council therefore finds that the need for the appropriation authorized by this ordinance constitutes a public emergency that could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time of budget approval and appropriation for the year 2014 and hereby authorizes the appropriation.

At said time and place anyone interested may be heard either for or against the above-described matter.

Accommodations for persons with disabilities will be provided upon request. Please make arrangements one week prior to the h e a r i n g b y c a l l i n g R a n d y R e e d a t ( 4 2 5 ) 3 8 8 - 3 9 0 1 , 1(800)562-4367, or TDD # (425) 388-3700, or e-mail to randy.reed@snoco.org.

eing strong is a good feeling for Joe Mickelson. But giving advice and encouragement to help others become strong, that feels even better.

The 57-year-old Mickelson won his first world powerlifting championship 10 years ago, and he has since won 12 more titles as recognized by the World Association of Bench Pressers and Deadlifters, one of several international powerlifting federations.

He competes several times a year and his accomplishments are meaningful, but he

“I really enjoy the human side of this,” said Mickelson, who lives in south Everett.

“I train six or seven women, some older guys and some young people. I just enjoy teaching the sport and giving back to the sport what the sport has given to me.

“When you go to the gym and you lift a lot of weight, people see that and it can intimidate them. But if you share your knowledge, you can help them be

successful. And if I can help somebody do better, that’s really important to me. It’s better than anything I do, for sure.”

A few years ago he began coaching a woman in her 50s who recently broke an agegroup world record. “For me,” he said, “those kinds of things really make the sport fun.”

Marysville Pilchuck players head local all-state selections Herald staff and news services SEATTLE — Six Marysville Pilchuck football players were selected to the 2014 Associated Press all-state football teams Tuesday, including one who was a first-team selection and one who was a second-team selection on both offense and defense.

In all, 19 area players earned all-state honors and appeared on the AP list. (See page C3 for the complete list).

Voting was conducted by sports writers and editors from around the state and done in collaboration with the Yakima Herald-Republic.

MP senior running back Austin Joyner was named to the Class 3A first-team offense. This was the third consecutive all-state firstteam selection for Joyner.

Also making the 3A first team was Marysville

Getchell sophomore running back Collin Montez and senior Glacier Peak placekicker Spencer Petitt.

Pettit also was the secondteam punter.

Marysville Pilchuck senior lineman Bryce Vitcovich was a 3A secondteam pick for both offense and defense. The other MP players earning 3A second-team honors were senior running back Killian Page, senior offensive lineman Corbin Ferry, senior linebacker Drew Hatch and senior defensive back Nicholas Alonso.

The selection of his five teammates to all-state teams excited Joyner. “I think it’s really cool! Those guys deserve it!” Joyner said in a text message.

Luke Willson showed his ‘rare speed for a tight end’ in Seahawks’ win over Arizona

By John Boyle Herald Writer

RICK SCUTERI / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Seattle tight end Luke Willson (82) makes a catch as Arizona middle linebacker Larry Foote (50) defends during the second half of the Seahawks’ 35-6 victory over the Cardinals on Sunday. Willson had the best game of his young career Sunday, catching three passes for 139 yards and two touchdowns. His two TD grabs were 80 yards and 20 yards.

RENTON — Luke Willson was a backup tight end at Rice in 2012, catching just nine passes in an injury-plagued senior season, yet he was also one of the players about whom the Seahawks were most excited following the 2013 draft.

On Sunday in Arizona, Willson showed why the Seahawks were so high on him as a fifth-round pick last year, catching three passes for 139 yards and two touchdowns. The first of Willson’s catches against the Cardinals, an 80-yard touchdown, showed exactly what had the Seahawks so enamored with a player who had such modest numbers at a college hardly known for cranking out NFL talent.

Willson didn’t do anything fancy on that 80-yard touchdown catch, he

simply got a step on an outof-position safety, caught a perfectly-thrown pass from Russell Wilson, then out-ran Rashad Johnson the remaining 50 yards to the end zone. Tight ends generally don’t out-run safeties, but Willson, who ran a 4.51 second 40-yard dash at his pro day, has rare speed for a tight end.

“He had a breakout game receiving-wise,” offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said. “I think it was fun to see him do that. I even told him on the sideline, ‘I finally believe you run a 4.5.’ First time we were able to see, he was able to run away from guys. It was awesome, we know he has that ability, but it was cool to see it in a play on the field or in game situations.”

Later in the game, Russell Wilson did what looked like a strange pre-snap happy

Herald Writer

RENTON — Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman earned Pro Bowl honors on Tuesday, but that doesn’t mean he was happy about the announcement.

Sherman was one of five Seahawks named to the 2014 Pro Bowl squad, but when asked earlier in the day what might upset him about the Pro Bowl announcement coming that night, he said, “If we only have five players named again.”

Sherman, safeties Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor, running back Marshawn Lynch and linebacker Bobby Wagner were all named to the Pro Bowl roster, meaning the Seahawks will have at least five Pro Bowlers for the fourth consecutive year, but in the mind of Sherman and plenty of others, that number is “only” five.

Thomas earns Pro Bowl honors for the fourth straight season, while Sherman gets his second nod, Chancellor gets his third and Lynch his fifth. It’s the first Pro Bowl selection for Wagner, who has been one of Seattle’s best players this season, but who also missed five games with a turf toe injury, putting his chances in doubt despite being one of the best linebackers in the league this season.

The Seahawks also had five players named Pro Bowl alternates: quarterback Russell Wilson, left tackle Russell Okung, center Max Unger, defensive end Michael Bennett and kicker Steven Hauschka. The league doesn’t announce the order of alternates, but Seahawks owner Paul Allen provided the details via Twitter, writing that Okung and Unger are first alternates, Bennett and Hauschka second alternates and Wilson the third alternate.

That Wilson, Bennett and others weren’t named to the team

was on full display in Arizona as Willson posted the highest receiving total by a Seahawk since 2010, and it provided a glimpse of what could be a big weapon in Seattle’s offense going forward.

Willson has always been fast for a big guy going back to his childhood he said, excelling in track as a 110-meter hurdler, although, he deadpans, “I mean, it was Canada.” Having that speed show up on gameday, however, isn’t always easy for a young player still finding his way, but after spending most of this season as a starter in place of an injured Zach Miller, Willson had his breakout game.

Seattle middle linebacker Bobby Wagner (54) was selected to his first Pro Bowl on Tuesday.

outright — they still could be selected if somebody bows out because of an injury, and that happens a lot — will bug Sherman as much as it does a lot of fans.

“It’s kind of frustrating, because you sometimes feel like your teammates are getting punished for being on a good team,” Sherman said, “Your linebackers are getting punished for not having a D-line that allows them to make 130, 140 tackles.

Your D-line is being punished because everybody is not going to get 10 sacks or one guy is not going to get 14, 15 sacks — that’s difficult to get on a team like this.

You just feel for guys.

“In the secondary, I think we get the acclaim a lot of times, Legion of Boom, and they respect our games. I think it’s well deserved, a lot of people say it’s well deserved. I think

Carroll said. “That’s a great job by (general manager John Schneider) and his guys to find him as a prospect. And to work him out with the thought that he could be what he is now; this is the guy we hoped we could get.

“We hoped we sneak a guy through the draft and he’d come through and be a big hit for us.

That’s rare speed for a tight end and it showed up. He has had a couple big plays over the years, but that was a big game for him to show how strong he is.”

Before Willson had played a game in Seattle, Schneider illustrated in an interview on 710 ESPN Seattle just how much the Seahawks wanted to acquire

the rest of our defense recognition would be well deserved. I think Mike Bennett should be in the Pro Bowl this year, I think Bobby Wagner should be in the Pro Bowl, K.J. Wright should be in the Pro Bowl and a number of members of our secondary.

Obviously, Marshawn and Russell, but unfortunately, I’m not sure it’s going to go like that.”

Sherman will, however, be happy that Wagner is a first-time Pro Bowler after campaigning for the middle linebacker frequently in press conference throughout the season. Wagner ranks second on the team with 94 tackles and has without a doubt been one of the best middle linebackers in the league this season, but he also missed five games, which some thought might cost him a shot at his first Pro Bowl appearance. His play since coming

Willson. In every draft, there are players a team hopes to acquire.

That player might not be the team’s highest-rated player, but it’s a player who they think can be a game-changer and/or who represents great value for their draft position.

In 2012, the Seahawks saw that in Bruce Irvin and Russell Wilson, and in 2013, Schneider said, “Luke was a guy in that same mold. We really would have been disappointed if we hadn’t been able to acquire him.”

Willson didn’t become an overnight sensation as a rookie, or even a regular threat in the passing game, but over the course of this season he has developed as

The Seahawks returned to practice a day early so they can take Christmas off, and since the league requires injury reports Wednesday through Friday, they did not have to submit one following Tuesday’s practice. However, head coach Pete Carroll did provide some updates in a press conference.

Okung, who missed Sunday’s game in Arizona with a bruised lung was expected to practice and “has a real good chance to get back.”

Unger, who has missed the past five games with a high-ankle sprain wouldn’t “do much today, maybe we’ll get something out of him tomorrow,” Carroll said.

Carroll didn’t sound optimistic on Jermaine Kearse making it back this week after injuring his hamstring against the Cardinals, but he didn’t completely rule out the possibility of that happening, saying, “It’s going to be tough for him to make it back, because he did pull his hammy a little bit.”

On tight end Cooper Helfet, who cracked a rib, according to his own post on Twitter, Carroll said, “He’s practicing today, just toughing it out, really. It was an admirable job by him to get banged like he did and make it through the game, and to come back out here now. He’ll try to make it through the week and see if he can be available to us on the weekend.”

Carroll said tight end Tony Moeaki will also return to practice this week after missing Sunday’s game with a shoulder injury.

Cornerback Tharold Simon, who left the game with a shoulder injury: “He felt pretty good today and he’ll get some work tomorrow and see how far he can take it,” Carroll said.

a more complete tight end, making big strides as a blocker in tight end Zach Miller’s absence, and on Sunday, he showed just how dangerous of a big-play threat he could be going forward.

“To be able to have a mismatch on linebackers, and to be able to try and find that, then the defense has to decide, ‘OK, is the matchup with the linebacker the correct one to use, or do we need to start putting safeties on them?’” Bevell said. “Then that does different things for us — we have to look at the matchups and sometimes it uncovers some disguises and all those kinds of things that can open up when you have a factor that’s there in the middle.”

Navy holds on for Poinsettia Bowl win Associated Press SAN DIEGO — Austin Grebe kicked a 24-yard field goal with 1 minute, 27 seconds left and Navy beat San Diego State 17-16 in the sloppy Poinsettia Bowl on Tuesday night after Donny Hageman was wide right on a 34-yard field goal attempt with 20 seconds remaining.

Hageman had made his first three field goal attempts for the Aztecs.

back, which has been a big part of Seattle’s late-season surge, was apparently enough for Wagner to overcome the time he missed in the eye of voters.

“It means something to me, but that’s not my focus,” Wagner said last week when asked about the Pro Bowl. “If it happens, it’s a blessing. If it doesn’t, I’m just going to take my frustration out on everybody who’s in front of me.”

And of course, in the end, the Seahawks, and every other playoff team, hope that none of their players actually play in the game since it takes place the weekend before the Super Bowl, meaning players on the two Super Bowl teams don’t participate in the Pro Bowl.

set up when Navy’s Chris Johnson forced and recovered a fumble by Donnel Pumphrey, who earlier set San Diego State’s singleseason rushing record.

Fullback Chris Swain converted on a fourth-and-1 and Ryan Williams-Jenkins took a pitch and ran 28 yards to help set up the game-winner by Grebe.

San Diego State then got to the Navy 17 before Hageman missed. Hageman earlier made field goals

of 43, 37 and 30 yards. His third field goal gave SDSU a 16-14 lead late in the third quarter.

Pumphrey gained 112 yards on 21 carries to set SDSU’s single-season rushing record with 1,867 yards.

The old record was 1,842 yards by George Jones in 1995.

Navy (8-5) lost four fumbles. SDSU (7-6) had three turnovers.

Navy quarterback Keenan Reynolds ran for two touchdowns, extending his own NCAA record for scores by a quarterback to 64.

He scored on a 1-yard keeper for the game’s first score and then somersaulted into the end zone at the end of a 6-yard run to give Navy a 14-13 lead midway through the third quarter.

The Midshipmen won their fourth straight and for the sixth time in seven games. They’ve won consecutive bowl games for the second time in history. They were playing just 10 days after beating Army for the 13th straight

time.

The Midshipmen rushed for 254 yards, led by Swain with 72 yards on eight carries.

Navy improved to 2-2 in the Poinsettia Bowl. It avenged a 35-14 loss to SDSU here in 2010.

Boca Raton Bowl Marshall 52, N. Illinois 23 BOCA RATON, Fla. — Rakeem Cato capped a recordsetting career by tying an NCAA mark for touchdown passes and throwing for three scores to help Marshall beat Northern Illinois in the inaugural Boca Raton Bowl.

Cato extended his streak of throwing at least one touchdown pass to 46 consecutive games. That tied the NCAA alldivision record set by Central Washington’s Mike Reilly.

As usual, Cato’s favorite target was fellow senior Tommy Shuler, who made 18 receptions for 185 yards and a score.

Shuler broke the Conference USA record for career receptions with 322.

Cato increased his season total to a school-record 40 touchdown passes. He threw for scores of 6 yards to Shuler, 11 yards to Angelo Jean-Louis and 27 yards to Deon-Tay McManus.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher has been rewarded with a contract extension to keep him with the program through the 2022 season.

The school announced the deal Tuesday, less than a year after Fisher’s last contract extension.

The No. 3 Seminoles are 58-10 since Fisher replaced Bobby Bowden before the 2010 season. Florida State won the national

championship last year and quarterback Jameis Winston became the third Heisman winner in school history. The team is in the midst of a school record 29-game win streak.

“I appreciate that FSU believes in what we are doing and supports our goal of maintaining one of the best programs in the country,” Fisher said in a statement. “It is a privilege to coach the young men in our program. It is truly a family.”

back Brendan Davis also earned 3A second-team honors. Lake Stevens junior quarterback Jacob Eason and teammate Justin Brown, a senior defensive back, earned Class 4A second-team honors as did Mount Vernon senior linebacker Tristan Brock.

Montez and Clark are Marysville Getchell’s first all-state selections in its football program’s history.

“There’s not much I can say” about Montez, who rushed for more than 2,000 yards this season, Chargers head coach Davis Lura said.

“The kid’s a freak of nature.

He’s the best athlete I’ve ever coached. He earned it. It takes a lot of people to bring him down.”

Lura said Montez is a quiet, motivated athlete who doesn’t seek attention.

“That kid works really hard and he’s so humble,” Lura said. “I guarantee you if somebody makes a big deal about this he’s going to want to go hide in a hole.”

Lura hopes the selections will raise awareness of the Marysville Getchell football program. “Something like this will helpfully give us more exposure,” he said.

“There are still people who don’t know we exist.”

Glacier Peak’s Pettit celebrated his selection during a family dinner Tuesday.

“To see it written is just an honor,” Pettit said. “There’s guys in the state that compete at a high level and to know they picked me over others is awesome.”

Pettit hopes the distinction of being a first-team placekicker will help his recruitment. He is already one of the top-rated kickers in the nation.

“It singles you out,” Pettit said. “All-league and all-area are great honors but all-state I think is what the coaches are really looking at, especially schools like Central, WSU and UW. Just knowing that the kicker was selected by everybody as the best in the state helps the college coaches know that the highlights don’t just speak for themselves, other people do, too.”

went on to play basketball at Mountlake Christian High School, where he was a 6-foot-3, 178-pound forward.

Mickelson is still about 6-3, but the weights he began lifting more seriously after high school have increased his size to 308 pounds.

He generally trains six days a week with a combination of weight (three days) and cardio (five days) workouts. He is diligent about his diet, drinks plenty of water, gets ample rest and, very importantly, abstains from steroids.

“I’ve always been drugfree,” Mickelson said. “That’s always been my focus. When I was lifting as a kid it was legal to take steroids. You could go to the doctor and get it prescribed, but I never did that.”

Powerlifting is a sport that involves three separate events — the bench press, deadlift and squat. The WABDL competes in the bench press and deadlift, and Mickelson has seven world championships in the bench press and six in the deadlift in the 47-53 and 54-60 age groups.

He also has two world records for the combined bench press and deadlift, both in the 308-pound weight class and one in each

age group — 1,036 pounds for 47-53 and 1,047 pounds for 54-60. “I’m actually getting stronger as I’m getting older,” Mickelson said with a smile.

And for all he has achieved, he still has other goals he wants to realize.

His maximum competitive bench press is 563 pounds, “and I’d love to bench 600 pounds,” he said. “But I haven’t quite got it yet.”

In addition to his lifting, Mickelson is active in the sport as a leader and an advocate. He is the state chairman for the WABDL “and he is one of my top advisors,” said association president Gus Rethwisch.

Mickelson will be inducted into the WABDL Hall of Fame next year, Rethwisch said, and that honor “punctuates all that he’s done. The Hall of Fame is not just about lifting. It’s also about his leadership and his ability to recruit lifters for the federation. He brings in quite a few new lifters, so he’s very valuable to this federation.”

Even at 57, Mickelson believes he still has many more good years in powerlifting. In fact, one of the great things about the sport is that people can compete as long as their health permits. At the recent world championships, Mickelson said, a 90-year-old man set an age-group world record with a bench press of 200 pounds.

“This is the first sport I’ve ever competed in where the egos are left at the door,” Mickelson said. “There were world champions who helped me train and I was always impressed with that. … The camaraderie and friendships are way more important to me than the trophies and the championships. “(Powerlifting) for me is about the journey, and it’s been a great journey,” he said. “I just feel younger when I do this. … And I love doing it. I love going to the gym, I love lifting weights, and I hope to keep doing it until I’m taken away.”

Superlative side dishes

NORTHWEST WINE | Eric Degerman and Andy Perdue

Great reds for under the tree, on the table

These unique, easy-to-make siders complement any main dish

C

hristmas is coming, and that often means meals that are richer, more bold and more comforting — and this calls for red wines.

During the holiday season, there are more opportunities to meet with friends and family during get-togethers, parties and dinners. The food served is often heartier, including roasted meats and vegetables, stews, casseroles, lasagna, ham and venison.

The flavors and textures associated with such dishes mean wines with bigger flavors and more structure. Protein and fats are great at taming bold, tannic wines, and this can mean a glorious food-pairing opportunity.

Here are a few big red wines we’ve tasted in recent weeks that should pair well with what you’re likely to be eating not only through the end of 2014, but also well into the winter months. Any also would make a terrific Christmas gift.

Ask for these at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly.

Barnard Griffin 2010 Malbec, Columbia Valley, $35: Owner/ winemaker Rob Griffin barrelaged this Malbec a little longer than usual, which allowed it to be more fully mature upon release. Aromas of dark chocolate, blueberry, poached plums, cherry cola and allspice lead to rich flavors of fruit compote with blackberry, black cherry and a dusting of cocoa powder. (14.25 percent) Milbrandt Vineyards 2011 Northridge Vineyard Sentinel, Wahluke Slope, $55: This Meritage-style blend is winemaker Josh Maloney’s top-shelf bottling. Beautiful aromas of black currant, blueberry and lilac are surrounded by vanilla, cocoa and allspice. The drink is luscious with flavors of black cherry and boysenberry, which come upon rounded tannins and ample acidity. (13 percent) Nefarious Cellars 2012 Defiance Vineyard Malbec, Lake Chelan, $35: Lake Chelan winemakers Dean and Heather Neff have developed a cult following.

While they’ve made headlines with their work from their estate with Riesling and Rhône varieties — Dean does the reds, Heather hones the whites — their estate Defiance Vineyard again proves itself with Malbec. Its hallmark is the theme of ripe Marionberry and black cherry, and while there’s black licorice concentration on the midpalate, its lithe tannin structure allows for the delicious lingering of blueberry acidity to become the focus. (14.6 percent) Amavi Cellars 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, $32: This is the sister winery to famed Pepper Bridge in Walla Walla. Aromas of sweet oak, blueberry, lilac and lavender lead to rich and smooth flavors of black currant, blueberry and chocolate. There’s some juiciness with pomegranate alongside firm plum skin tannins. Suggested pairings include a T-bone alongside grilled portobello mushroom and cassoulet. (14.5 percent) Waterbrook Winery 2011 Reserve Malbec, Columbia Valley, $25: This youthful expression with one of the Northwest’s hottest varieties leads with aromas of Marionberry and blueberry with vanilla, black pepper and fresh dill. The drink is rich, smooth and spicy with blackberry, blueberry See REDS, Page D2

Garlicky broccoli and bacon is one of the favorite side dishes of the author’s children.

By Reshma Seetharam Herald Writer

Step aside, main course.

These side dishes can fill a plate and compete with that holiday rib roast for seconds.

Rather than limit yourself to a family tradition, try something new and creative on the side.

Don’t be afraid to experiment.

Cooking up quick side dishes with a handful more vegetables can be good for your heart and your family’s overall health. Try new vegetables. Start small, from a few days a week to a few meals a day. Swap red meat for skinless poultry and seafood. Substitute heavy cream and cheese with yogurt. Replace those creamy, calorie-laden casseroles for

vegetable sides.

Balancing out holiday meals with portions of everything in moderation is key to getting through December with a maintained waistline. Studies show that having a little meat along with healthier choices of vegetable, fruit and fiber-rich carbs makes for more satisfied diners.

These side recipes will please the crowd. One dish even has bacon. It’s a great way to make some bacon-tasting vegetable goodness. You can use the vegetables you have, and whip up a quick dinner with chapatis/flat bread or tortillas.

The asparagus, coconut and peanut fry dish evolved from See SIDE, Page D2

A colorful combination of cauliflower, carrots and lentils makes a healthy side dish that’s easy to prepare.

RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Almond and orange snowballs, a perfect little bite The bomb may be fearsome on the front, but as metaphor, it’s the bomb. Chic, charming and clever are the bomb. Unlike, say, the actual bomb. Hard to grasp how something so fierce came to define some things so fine, but that’s the lingo.

Then there’s the photo bomb — intrusive, irksome and in. As fad, it’s the bomb.

We’re keen on the cold creamy layers of the ice cream bombe, the delicious pages of Cherry Bombe, and the black-and-white classic in which tall, dark and handsome plays opposite the bombshell. A night in Casablanca; that’s the bomb.

We’re also in favor of the flavor bomb. Gluttony is good, especially at the holidays. But after the feast, we marvel at miniature.

Say, the cherry-size sphere of sticky almonds and candied orange, a single bite that bursts with bittersweet. Now that’s the bomb.

Orange almond snowballs

1 cup plus 2 tablespoons slivered blanched almonds 1 scant cup confectioners’ sugar, plus more for dusting 1 ⁄2 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 ⁄2 cup diced candied orange peel, see note 1 egg white whisked with 1 teaspoon water Toss almonds, confectioner’s sugar, granulated sugar and orange peel into the food processor. Process 1 full minute to fine, orange-scented sand.

Dump sand into the mixer bowl. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon egg-white mixture. (Resist temptation to add more — too much egg white will make the little snowballs melt or explode.) Using the paddle attachment, mix on medium-low speed until dough comes together (or at least looks like damp gravel and sticks together easily), 15 minutes (yup, 15).

Pinch off clumps of dough and roll into cherry-size balls. Roll balls in confectioners’ sugar and set them on parchment-lined baking sheets, leaving a little space between balls (they shouldn’t spread much).

Slide into a 325-degree oven and bake until set but still soft to the touch, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool. Store in an airtight container. One or two tiny cookies are nice with espresso, after dinner.

Note: Buy this or make your own, starting with two large oranges.

Prep: 30 minutes. Bake: 13 minutes. Makes: About 50 small cookies.

Good stuff: A roulade makes a merry meal

By Sara Moulton Associated Press

Think of a roulade as a big edible cigar-shaped container for just about any filling of your choice.

Almost like an edible Christmas present.

Even the roll itself is versatile and can be made from any number of ingredients. Savory roulades — the term means “to roll” in French — can be made from beef, chicken or turkey. Sweet roulades — such as American jelly rolls and French buche de Noel — can be made from cake.

The latter, a yule log frosted with chocolate bark, is reserved for Christmas.

And that’s how I think of this egg roulade, which wraps a souffle-like sheet of baked egg around a savory filling of prosciutto, spinach and cheese. It’s special for breakfast for Christmas morning, a way of making a spongy and elegant omelet for eight people. It’s delicious and practical. Not only does one recipe feed a crowd (rather than making separate omelets), it also can be partly prepped ahead of time.

To make it a day ahead, just bake off the egg wrapper as directed, then store it overnight in the

and cocoa flavors, supported by sandy yet sturdy tannins and cranberry acidity in the finish.

(13.9 percent) Maryhill Winery 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $22: This spicy, chocolaty and dark Cabernet Sauvignon is made by New Zealand native Richard Batchelor. Fun aromas of gingersnap cookie and cocoa powder lead to notes of blackberry, dark raspberry and crushed herbs. Flavors run the gamut of black currant, boysenberry, Western serviceberry and brown sugar, while the structure is balanced with a long

refrigerator. Fifteen minutes before serving, you just stuff it, roll it, and pop it in the oven. You also can freeze the cooked wrapper, covering it first in plastic, then in foil. Just defrost in the refrigerator before proceeding with the recipe.

To make the egg wrapper, you start with a bechamel (thickened milk) base leavened with beaten egg whites. It’s sort of like a thin rectangular souffle, though a roulade is far less delicate than a souffle (which is good since you will be handling and rolling it). Just make sure your baking sheet is well buttered and floured.

The only tricky part about making a roulade is getting it to roll evenly around your chosen fillings. After the egg wrapping is baked and cooled, a damp towel is used to help roll it around the fillings. The towel serves the same purpose as the reed mat used to form sushi rolls; it helps to lift up the wrapping completely and uniformly and to roll it tightly.

If the wrapping has been chilled overnight or frozen and defrosted, it needs to be heated slightly. Put the wrapping, parchment side down, back in the rimmed sheet pan, then place the

minutes, or until golden and firm to the touch. Set the pan on a rack to cool slightly. Increase the oven to 375 degrees.

While the roulade is baking, in a large skillet over high, heat the oil. Add half of the spinach and cook, stirring, until it starts to wilt, then add the remaining spinach and cook until all the spinach has wilted. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Transfer the mixture to a colander to drain, pressing lightly on the spinach to drain any excess liquid. Season with salt and pepper.

Use a bit of butter to lightly coat one side of a sheet of kitchen parchment cut to the same size as the egg sponge. Place the parchment, buttered side down, onto the top of the sponge. Cover with a damp kitchen towel, then carefully invert the sponge onto a work surface. Peel off the parchment from the top of the sponge.

Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the sponge, leaving a 1⁄2-inch border on all sides. Top the cheese with the prosciutto in an even layer, followed by the spinach. Arrange the red pepper strips in one line down the center (starting and ending at the short sides).

Starting with one of the longer sides, use the towel to help roll up the sponge, enclosing the filling, jelly roll-fashion. Carefully pick up the roulade and place it seam side down on the baking sheet. Bake it in the middle of the oven until the cheese has melted, 8 to 10 minutes. Use a serrated knife to cut crosswise into 1/2inch thick slices.

Start to finish: 1 hour.

⁄2 teaspoon cumin seeds Dry roast the peanuts, coconut flakes and cumin seeds until they are nice and warm.

Set aside on a plate to cool. Test the peanuts; when they give a good crunch they are perfect to powder. In a coffee/dry grinder, give it one or two pulses for a coarse texture.

Wash and wipe the asparagus dry. Cut into 2-inch pieces.

Heat oil in a large skillet. When it begins to shimmer, add in the chilies. As chilies begin to roast in the oil, add the asparagus and roast on medium heat.

After 4 to 6 minutes, sprinkle with salt. Toss in sliced onions and let it saute for a minute. Adding the onions second keeps them crunchy. If you like your onions soft, add before the asparagus and saute for a minute.

Next add in peanut coconut powder and let the entire mixture cook on low for 3 to 5 minutes.

a mundane week night when I was planning to try something different with asparagus. I like how this dish comes together with crisp asparagus, crumbly toasted peanuts and fragrant coconut flakes.

Asparagus in itself is sweet and tender; when it is stirfried with red onions and garam masala, the flavor is truly amazing. It is now a family favorite.

Below are a rainbow of sides for you to try and whip up with ease. Stir-fry or roast in the oven if you like.

Many of these recipes have a South Indian touch to it, with sun-dried chilies, lentils, peanuts and coconut. If you prefer food that is not spicy, add in a whole sun-dried chili instead to instill just enough flavor.

pan over two stovetop burners on low heat for just a couple minutes. This will warm up the bottom of the wrapping and enable you to peel off the parchment.

As for the filling, almost anything will do, though my preference is to always include cheese. Cheese not only boasts great flavor and texture, it also is gluey enough to keep the filling ingredients in place in the center of the roll. But whichever fillings you choose, make sure to cook them first to get rid of any excess water. Raw spinach or mushrooms, for example, would make a very wet filling.

Use a bit of butter to lightly coat a 15-by-10-inch rimmed baking sheet. Line the baking sheet with kitchen parchment, leaving about 1 inch hanging over each of the pan’s shorter sides, then lightly butter the parchment. Sprinkle the parchment with a bit of flour, then tilt the pan and tap gently to spread the flour and discard any excess.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the 5 tablespoons of butter. Add the 6 tablespoons of flour and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the milk in a stream, whisking, and bring the mixture to a boil, whisking the entire time.

Turn down to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the egg yolks, one at a time. Stir in the salt and pepper.

magine you had a chance to interview Santa Claus! What would you ask? What would Santa say? Here are some ideas from some Kid Scoop readers, who came up with the questions and the answers for today’s page.

I was a smart, cheerful child. When my parents died, I was heartbroken. I cried, not out of self-pity, but out of true love. One of my tears dropped into the snow and froze to make an ice marble. When I held it, it glowed and took me to the North Pole. I met the elves and they needed my help.

After I grew up with them I took on the greatest task of all—delivering presents.

The ice marble gave me the powers I have today.

I like whole milk best, but Mrs. Claus put me on a diet so I have to drink non-fat.

INTERVIEW WITH SANTA St Mary Magdalen School Mrs. Houghton • 3rd grade Dear Santa, I had a terrible ear ache last night. Does this ever happen to you? Did it happen on Christmas Eve? What did you do? Love, Lily. Dear Lily, yes it did happen to me once, but not on Christmas Eve! I am glad you asked. Mrs. Claus made me egg flower soup. I also had lots of rest. By the way, are you feeling better? I can’t wait to see you! Santa Dear Santa, I am feeling better!

By Lily I just interviewed Santa Claus and asked him which reindeer he liked the best. Santa answered, I like Rudolph the Red-Nosed reindeer the best.” I also asked who his favorite person was. Santa answered, “I like every kid, adult, elder, and everybody else equally.”

By Georgia Do you always eat all the cookies and milk that people leave for you? No, but I do drink lots of milk, and the cookies have too much sugar. Ho! Ho! Ho!

By Mai Santa, what did you get me for Christmas? I have been a good boy. Santa said, “It depends on what cookie you get me.” When I came home from school I went straight to the kitchen to make chocolate chip cookies but my mom already made them, and it was oatmeal not with raisins though. When I woke up I went to the living room and I went to my stocking and there was a note it said, “Next time get me the chocolate chip cookies.”

GRANDPARENTING

DAILY CROSSWORD

Families not in holiday spirit a minority

By Tom and Dee Hardie and Key Kidder Dear Grandparenting: Have you seen any of that good old Christmas spirit lately? I’ve been searching high and low and am not having much luck. Normally I would get together with my children and grandchildren at one of their houses on Christmas Eve, like every other year. But this year it’s been canceled on account of lack of interest, mainly from the grown grandkids. The word I’m getting is they can’t be bothered.

Either they’re too old, too cool or prefer to be with their friends.

“Santa Who?” was my grandson Charlie’s response when his father asked him about his plans. Charlie always was a smart aleck.

I am stunned, needless to say.

Not just a little, but really stunned, and I don’t get stunned that often.

My children (their parents) tried to coax them into it. When it became apparent they were fighting a losing battle, they pulled the plug on the whole idea. This is one family get-together I am heartbroken to give up. Am I the last grandparent to learn that today’s grandchildren are losing interest in these Christmas traditions?

— Greta Dawson-Smith, Los Angeles Dear Greta: To the best of our knowledge, you’re about the first. Grandchildren are bending and re-shaping the world their grandparents knew in many ways, but family Christmas traditions remain off-limits, something too sacrosanct to mess with. When so many still travel halfway around the world to “be home for Christmas,” shame on yours for not showing up.

In point of fact, grown grandchildren enthusiastically uphold Christmas traditions, according to a national 2013 survey by Pew Research. And the main activity they look forward to is — you guessed it, spending time with extended family. More than 90% of grandchildren aged 18-29 look forward to attending family gatherings. More than 80% plan to help with the Christmas tree, while 60% sent out Christmas cards. Caroling is on the agenda of 16%.

For the younger set, family Christmas is a golden moment they wouldn’t think of skipping.

Despite misgivings from family members who don’t want to perpetuate lies, some child

Grand remark of the week Benny N. from Coos Bay, Oregon, swears by this: One warm August day, he was out with his grandkids when a portly gent wearing red shorts and a white shirt with a white beard happened by.

“Hello Santa!” said grandson Morgan, age 5. “What are you doing here in August?”

“I’m on vacation,” he said with a smile.

Glancing about, Benny saw a nearby red van with a license plate bearing this single word — “SLEIGH”.

Wife of transgender husband has options Dear Abby: A year ago, my husband of four years disclosed to me that he’s transgender. We have a 3-year-old who has medical problems, which has resulted in numerous surgeries. Our lives have changed beyond belief, and I’m afraid our marriage has been damaged beyond repair.

He has come out of the closet, and I have gone into one to protect his secret and hide my heartache and devastation. The pain I feel is mostly for the lifelong struggles my husband has endured, but now I’m feeling the loss of my husband and our happy future together because I can’t be the wife he needs.

How do I know that I’ve tried every option to make this work, especially when I am the only one regularly seeking therapy? When do I resign myself to the fact that my expectations of our marriage will never be achievable? And how do I say I want out without risking his (her) well-being?

— Last Straw In The Midwest Dear Last Straw: It would be helpful for you to get emotional support in addition to the counselor you have been seeing. There are no “magic words” to tell your husband you can no longer live with the new person he’s becoming.

However, I know of a group that can help you.

You would benefit greatly by contacting the Straight Spouse Network, a group that was started by Amity Pierce Buxton, Ph.D., in the ‘80s. It offers peer support, as well as an online (worldwide) network of support groups.

Dear Abby: I have been communicating for three months with a gentleman I met on an online dating site. He says he wants to meet me in person, but every time we get close to setting a time and place, something comes up and he can’t keep the date. We live in the same city, so traveling isn’t the problem. When I ask why he’s canceling our date, the answer is different every time.

I am beginning to think he just wants to communicate via email or chat.

We have web-cammed and know what each other looks like, so that is probably not the issue, either.

Should I keep waiting him out or just end it? — Puzzled In Indiana Dear Puzzled: By now it should be obvious that you are carrying on a conversation with someone who doesn’t keep his word. He may be married or have misrepresented himself in some other way. If you want a real, flesh-andblood relationship with someone, stop wasting your time with this person.

South must make West a present of the ten of hearts by ducking the first trick, breaking the defenders’ link.

If he leads a club, South grabs the ace and forces out the ace of diamonds, losing only four tricks in all.

Sherlock Holmes plans to hit Broadway in 2017

50 years ago (1964) The headline on the front page had red letters and wished readers a Merry Christmas.

Underneath it was painting by Arne Jensen showing the historic Machias Community Church. Built in 1902 with volunteer labor, it had been the hub of community life all its 62 years and was steeped in the spirit and traditions of the season.

Donna Follars, receptionist at the Haynes-Thompson Chiropractic office, 1312 Hewitt Ave., stood beside the candy and cookie house she made for part of the office decorations.

25 years ago (1989) The Everett Public Market, at 2804 Grand Ave., invited all shoppers to visit during the holiday season. It was nestled between downtown and the waterfront with a view of Hat and Whidbey islands on Puget Sound and the future naval base. There were 58 shops to chose from.

The Lake Stevens wrestling team won three of its five matches to finish fifth in the 16-team Highline Tournament.

Kirk Harzell, wrestling at 115 pounds, won all five of his matches and 190-pounder Richie Chambers won four and tied one. Albie Gee at 108 and Tad Lloyd at 122 each won four of five matches.

By Jack O’Donnell from Herald archives at the Everett Public Library.

NEW YORK — It’s elementary, really. With all things Sherlock Holmes popular now, it’s no wonder that he’s coming to Broadway next.

Producers said Thursday that a play about the cunning detective will come to Broadway in 2017. Called “Sherlock Holmes,” it will be written by the British writing team of Rachel Wagstaff and Duncan Abel.

It is being billed as an original tale offering “a new and deeply theatrical exploration of the mind of the famous detective, while remaining faithful to the mysterious world created

by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.”

“Our version of Sherlock Holmes will have all the elements that fans want and expect, but with new twists and turns and plenty of surprises, which will take these amazingly complex and beloved characters to places they’ve never been,” said producer Antonio R. Marion in a statement. He’s producing alongside Kimberly Much.

More details, including casting, the creative team and theater, will be announced later.

Doyle’s creation is everywhere these days: There are two TV series — “Sherlock” starring Benedict Cumberbatch

Wednesday’s highlights on TV include: “It’s a Wonderful Life”: Every time a Nielsen family watches this holiday classic, the ratings get a ping.

Besides, the only first-run programs on tonight are “Alaska: The Last Frontier,” “Kitchen Inferno” and “Barmageddon.” 8

and “Elementary” with Jonny Lee Miller — and Ian McKellen has been announced as an elderly Holmes in the upcoming movie “A Slight Trick of the Mind.” Robert Downey Jr. has also been playing the sleuth in a film franchise.

The last time Holmes was front-and-center on Broadway was in 1974, when John Wood garnered a Tony nomination for the title role in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s “Sherlock Holmes,” a revival of the 1899 drama

by Conan Doyle and William Gillette.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Wednesday, Dec. 24, the 358th day of 2014. There are seven days left in the year. This is Christmas Eve. Today’s highlight: On Dec. 24, 1914, during World War I, impromptu Christmas truces began to take hold along parts of the Western Front between British and German soldiers who, in some cases, exchanged gifts and even played soccer with each other. Conservationist John Muir, founder of the Sierra Club, died in Los Angeles at age 76.

On this date: In 1524, Portuguese navigator Vasco da Gama — who had discovered a sea route around Africa to India — died in Cochin, India.

In 1814, the United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Ghent, which ended the War of 1812 following ratification by both the British Parliament and the U.S. Senate.

In 1851, fire devastated the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., destroying about 35,000 volumes.
