Rash of A community of kindness Lake Stevens’ couple’s home is a display of affection for their daughter county heroin deaths SEAHAWKS WATCH

Possible reasons for the disproportionate spike include tighter control on prescription drugs paired with a lack of treatment options.

MARK MULLIGAN / THE HERALD

Don Hartleben, Mari Morehouse and their daughter, MariBrooke Hartleben, 7, stand outside their Lake Stevens home decorated with Seahawks flags, lights and colors along with a cast of various animals Tuesday afternoon. It all started when two 12th Man flags that belonged to MariBrooke were stolen from the front yard. When neighbors started dropping off flags and other items, Hartleben took the opportunity to give back.

LAKE STEVENS — It’s the 12th wonder.

A giant inflatable 12th Snowman billows from the roof.

Blue-and-green lights sync to The Verve’s “Bitter Sweet Symphony.”Goal posts, flags, Homer Simpson and other inflatable figures in Seahawks garb round out the headturning, car-honking madness on the front lawn.

■ A guide to Super Bowl activities in Snohomish County party 10 years ago, are huge Hawks fans. But this display of affection is for their 7-year-old daughter, MariBrooke , who is autistic.

And it reflects the kindness of the community.

In August, thieves stole two Seahawks flags from the family’s

front yard while they were inside watching a preseason game.

Two flags. Back then, that’s all they had in the yard of the unassuming house with peeling white paint and red trim. The flags were MariBrooke’s, a gungho Hawks fan stemming from her fascination with animals.

Her dad took the offensive and sent a message to the thieves.

“I just painted a sign that said ‘Only losers would steal our daughter’s Seahawks flags,’ ” Hartleben said.

He thought maybe the thieves would come forward and return

MariBrooke’s flags.

That didn’t happen. Instead, others stepped up. The response was immediate and overwhelming.

“People started stopping by and dropping off things,” Morehouse said. “Someone gave us a signed Russell Wilson flag. One young newlywed couple stopped by and gave our daughter a new jersey. It was so touching.”

Some of the items featured MariBrooke’s favorite player, Marshawn Lynch.

EVERETT — Heroin deaths reached epidemic levels from 2011 through 2013 in Snohomish County, which accounted for nearly one in five of the state’s heroin fatalities, officials say.

The findings were included in a Snohomish Health District report released Tuesday, which said the rate of heroin deaths per 100,000 people exceeded the statewide figure.

“Snohomish County is facing an epidemic of drug overdoses,” says the report’s executive summary.

No one knows exactly why heroin fatalities spiked, although there are theories. It could be due to tighter control on prescriptions for narcotic pain pills, paired with a lack of treatment facilities, said Ken Stark, who directs the county’s Human Services department.

The county now has 16 publicly funded detox beds, operated

by Evergreen Manor in Everett.

“People wait for days to get into treatment,” said Linda Grant, chief executive officer.

Last year, 1,100 people were admitted to the in-patient detox program, about 80 percent of whom were treated for opiate or heroin addiction, she said.

People see heroin as an easyto-get, cheap drug, Grant said.

“If you want to look for drugs, it’s

The population of those being treated for opiate addiction has changed drastically, she said. Forty years ago, it was people in their 30s and 40s. Now it’s late teens and early 20s, Grant said.

“We’re talking college and high school students,” she said. “There are days when I walk through the detox center and it looks like a high school class. You would not believe these young ones would be so involved so soon.”

Efforts are under way to open another 16 detox beds in south Snohomish County by the end of 2015, Grant said.

About two-thirds of the heroin-related deaths in

Snohomish County from 2011-13 were men. Overall, death most commonly occurred among people 18 to 29 years old, according to the health district report.

The data for calendar 2013 are the most recent available.

The deaths occurred most frequently in the North Everett and Tulalip ZIP codes, which accounted for 27 percent of the county’s heroin deaths from 2011 through 2013.

While 9 percent of local heroin deaths during 2011 and 2012 were among American Indians, who comprise 1.2 percent of the county population, only one such death occurred in 2013, according to the report.

realized it was time for the trainers to step back and slow down, Parker said.

He knew his work could have global implications.

In Liberia, Ebola patients and survivors faced exile and even violence in their communities because of misinformation and fear, he said.

The hospitals in Liberia had rusted gates, peeling paint and corrugated roofing. He remembers being warned as he walked into an Ebola treatment unit.

The message was: “Beyond this gate are people with Ebola.”

He thought to himself: “Here we are. We’re going through the gate.”

For comparison, King County’s rate matches the state’s and accounted for about a third of the heroin deaths statewide, she said.

The rise in heroin deaths followed efforts by the state, the federal government and pharmaceutical companies to tighten access to prescription pain medications,

An antidote that can help reverse overdoses of powerful opiate drugs is now available to the public at four area pharmacies. The kits include the medication called naloxone, or Narcan — part of a statewide effort to make a potentially lifesaving drug easily available. The kits cost about $125 and can be purchased without a prescription.

Stark said. Those medications became increasingly hard to get for people who had become addicted to them, he said. At the same time, there was a shortage of treatment facilities.

“There wasn’t adequate capacity,” he said.

“This isn’t just happening in Snohomish County, but in a number of places around the state and country,” Stark said.

Both the county government and the health district are trying to inform the public of the dangers of heroin and improperly used prescription pain pills, he said.

OSO MUDSLIDE

Suit claims slide ‘man-made’

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

OSO — A new lawsuit filed over deaths and property destruction from last year’s catastrophic mudslide makes a startling claim.

It faults the state of Washington, Snohomish County and a private timber company for causing, “the worst man-made landslide in the history of this nation.”

Seattle attorney Karen Willie filed the suit on behalf of three families of people killed in the slide and others who lost property.

“I am certain that this is a man-made landslide — I don’t think it was an act of God,” Willie said.

The lawsuit doesn’t explain how that claim squares with the evidence geologists say exists of 15 other large slides in the valley over the past 6,000 years, occurring anywhere from 400 to 1,500 years apart. Slides on that particular stretch of hillside have been occurring at least back to the 1930s.

The March 22 disaster killed 43 people and destroyed about 40 houses in the Steelhead Haven

neighborhood. The new Oso lawsuit is the third to date. Filed Jan. 21 in King County Superior Court, it seeks damages to be determined at trial.

Plaintiffs include the estates and relatives of John and Kris Regelbrugge; Lon Slauson; and Steve and Theresa Harris.

Three other sets of plaintiffs lost property: Henrietta Ottersen; Davis and Ruth Hargrave; and Irvin and Judith Wood.

The suit accuses the state Department of Natural Resources of negligence for issuing a logging permit in 2004 to

Grandy Lake Forest Associates of Mount Vernon. The company’s 7.5-acre, pie-shaped clear-cut on top of the hillside played a major role in causing a 2006 slide that blocked the North Fork Stillaguamish River, the suit contends.

A DNR investigation concluded that permitting for the clear-cut was done properly, but that the company exceeded the approved size by an acre.

While there is less agreement on what caused the 2006 slide, See SUIT, Page A4

Hospital visits give Wilson ‘inspiration’

JULIE MUHLSTEIN

R

ussell Wilson is everywhere. Clearly, job one is in Arizona preparing for Sunday’s Super Bowl. The Seahawks quarterback is a pitchman for Alaska Airlines. He is the public face of the Strong Against Cancer campaign at Seattle Children’s Hospital.

And he has a special place in the heart of an Everett mother whose 16-year-old son lost his leukemia battle.

It is well known that Wilson spends every Tuesday — but not this week — visiting young patients at Seattle Children’s Hospital. What Kristi Messenger learned is how much those visits mean.

Her son, Michael Alcayaga, a Cascade High School sophomore, died May 20 at Seattle Children’s, where he was treated for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The day before he died, Wilson and Seattle rap artist Macklemore spent about an hour in Michael’s hospital room.

Wilson wrote in the family’s journal and led the circle of Michael’s loved ones and Cascade friends in prayer. “He filled out a whole page in the journal.

He wrote I love you five times,” Messenger said Monday.

Visits by Seahawks and other athletes give kids something to look forward to, she said. “It brightens their day, especially when they’re so caring like Russell.”

Carly Young, director of development for Seattle Children’s Hospital Foundation, said Wilson has visited the hospital every Tuesday for almost three years. He surprised the staff by even showing up the Tuesday after the NFC Championship win over the Green Bay Packers.

COURTSEY OF KRISTI MESSENGER

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson posed with Cascade High School student Michael Alcayaga in December 2013, the first time they met, at Seattle Children’s Hospital. Michael was being treated with chemotherapy and steroids to fight leukemia. He died of the disease May 20.

At Seattle Children’s, Young said, blue Tuesdays rather than blue Fridays find folks dressed in Seahawks jerseys.

The hospital also has relationships with the Seattle Mariners and the Sounders. Sue Bird, point guard with the WNBA’s Seattle Storm, was a recent visitor. “All our teams feel connected to the hospital and want to bring players in,” Young said.

With Wilson, it’s personal. In a blog on the Seattle Children’s website, the quarterback wrote recently that he spent a lot of time visiting a hospital before

his father died of diabetes in 2010. He said in the blog that those experiences helped him understand challenges hospitalized children and their families face. “Their strength has been an inspiration to me,” Wilson wrote.

Messenger and her son met Wilson for the first time during a patient family gathering at the Seattle hospital in December 2013. Along with his firm handshake, she noticed something else about Wilson that day.

“After he would take pictures would kids, he made sure he got their names,” she said. “He cared

enough to really want to know their names.”

Young said the visits do more than give kids an autographed photo of a sports hero. “What it does for the patient and their family, it can uplift care,” she said. “Having someone come in like Russell, he’s truly making an impact beyond that 5 minutes he’s in a room. That support puts people in better spirits. It can change how they communicate with a nurse. It’s not a one-day thing.”

The suit accuses the state and Snohomish County of botching attempts to manage river flows through the area, including the use of a wooden crib wall at the toe of the slope. The state and county also failed to adequately investigate the 2006 slide or warn neighbors of the dangers, the suit argues.

Another prong in the lawsuit goes after the state for allowing what it describes as nuisance conditions on its property, which allowed soil and water to run onto the plaintiffs’ land.

Snohomish County was served with paperwork for the suit on Friday, chief civil deputy prosecutor Jason Cummings said. The county won’t comment on the pending litigation, but plans to put up a vigorous defense, Cummings said.

The suit draws from decades of scientific observations of 600-foottall Hazel hill, where the

Smokey Point Town Center and neighboring Vintage at Lakewood.

The Town Center is in its first phase of development, with at least one more phase to come. The project has been in the works for nearly three years, starting with an application to the city of Marysville in 2012.

Plans have changed some since then.

Originally, the project was called Lakewood Station and proposed apartments built on top of first-floor commercial space. It’s since been renamed Smokey Point Town Center, with a design that separates the retail and residential buildings.

“It’s more of a horizontal mixed-use rather than vertical mixed-use,” Marysville planning manager Chris Holland said.

Phase one encompasses 182 apartments in eight buildings along with one

SMOKEY POINT — Eight new apartment buildings and a senior living center are going up quickly just west of I-5, with 379 units under construction and more to come.

The neighborhood just west of the Lakewood Pointe and Lakewood Crossing shopping centers is a cacophony of construction as workers lay down roofing, pound in nails, scramble up and down ladders or load and unload gravel.

In the coming months, developers plan to finish hundreds of apartments and a new commercial building on the north side of 172nd Street Northeast.

Designs also include rerouting 25th Avenue Northeast where it branches off of busy 172nd Street. That would be followed by more construction on the new

95,000-square-foot commercial shell to house a Dick’s Sporting Goods and several other undetermined tenants, Holland said.

The apartments are nearing completion along 25th Avenue, some covered in yellow plastic with windows newly installed and others waiting for a roof to cap the hollow wood shell.

Smokey Point Commercial, LLC, is seeking a work permit to start on the commercial building by March, Holland said. The developer also has asked the city to vacate part of 25th Avenue, and a public hearing is scheduled in front of the Marysville City Council at 7 p.m. Feb. 9.

The second phase of the Town Center project includes another eight apartment buildings with about 160 units, along with several more commercial buildings along 172nd Street. That construction

Space at Smokey Point Town Center is listed for lease by First Western Properties, Inc. A company representative declined to give any details about the project or its timeline, citing a confidentiality agreement with Smokey Point Commercial owner Steve Malsam.

Malsam did not return calls seeking comment.

Just down the street from Smokey Point Town Center, the Vintage at Lakewood also is taking shape.

It’s a community for people at least 55 years old.

There are 197 one- and two-bedroom apartments going in at 2131 172nd St. NE. Along with the apartments, the project also includes a fitness center, clubhouse and mini-mart, according to The Vintage at Lakewood’s website. The apartments can be rented starting this spring.

Rapid development in Smokey Point has sparked concerns about traffic and safety on 172nd Street, which is also Highway 531.

Past the bustling shopping centers, the road turns to two lanes. Traffic often backs up at a railroad crossing and near the Lakewood schools, especially before and after school when buses join the fray.

Rerouting 25th Avenue will move its intersection with 172nd Street farther from the hectic entrance to Lakewood Crossing, Holland said, and a roundabout may be installed along the new roadway.

No other major roadwork is planned at the this point, he said.

Messenger said her son underwent the T-cell therapy Wilson is now supporting, and that in a clinical trial “Michael was patient No. 3” — Wilson’s jersey number. “They’re doing amazing research,” she said. “It’s too late for my son. It might be just in time

for somebody else’s son.”

Michael, who played baseball and basketball at Cascade, is also survived by his father, Bill Alcayaga, and triplet sisters Amanda, Brooke and Courtney Alcayaga. Part of Cascade’s freshman class, all three play basketball.

Her boy is always in her thoughts. And Messenger will never forget the kindness of an elite NFL quarterback. “It means so much to those kids,” she said.

slide began.

“There were studies out there and people knew so much,” Willie said.

In 1947, a professor noted slumping blocks of soil on the hillside. A 1952 study suggested rerouting a stream called Headache Creek to improve the slope’s stability — at a cost then calculated at $5,400.

Steelhead Haven began getting built out in the 1960s, first as rudimentary fishing shacks.

A large landslide destroyed vacation cabins in the area in 1967. More studies followed.

Over time, more people began to settle the area as full-time residents.

In 1999, a now oft-cited study warned of a 900foot runout — similar to what happened in 1967.

The damage last year — from the top of the scarp to its southernmost point — stretched 5,827 feet.

That was the 10th slide to hit the same location, according to the lawsuit.

Of the two earlier suits over Oso deaths, the one representing the largest bloc of victims — 10 families — was filed in October. Like the current lawsuit, it faulted the state, the county and the same timber company.

The first lawsuit over the slide was filed in July.

The story behind your local neighborhood business.

he way of the empty hand has led to a rewarding life for Timothy Amey, Jr., sensei of Evergreen Karate and Kobudo Club (EKKC) in Everett Karate, written in Japanese characters as “empty hand,” became part of Amey’s core while, as a college student, he received formal martial arts training at West Fresno Shotokan Martial Arts Academy in Fresno, Calif.

Later, during a 14-year stint as a senior operations officer for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Prime Power Battalion, he honed his mixed martial art skills by practicing with various representatives of different national combat organizations.

Further diligence in training eventually led Sensei Tim to become the only student of the Federation in the Northwest region to hold black belts in all aspects of traditional Okinawan training.

Today, this black belt instructor at EKKC teaches people of all ages to embrace the way of the empty hand through training and respect of the centuries-old Okinawan traditions of karate, kobudo and tuite along with international law enforcement training and self-defense classes for women and children.

At EKKC, karate training covers a range of exercises

Sensei Tim Amey works on fighting drills with this class at Evergreen Karate and Kobudo Club in Everett.

and methods to develop speed, strength and a solid foundation on which to build and refine techniques.

Students of kobudo learn the art of fighting with weapons that can be disguised as everyday tools.

Such training reflects the history of Okinawa: When conventional weapons were outlawed on the island by the Japanese army, the Okinawan people resorted to basic farming and fishing tools to defend themselves and to eventually propel themselves to one of the only successful insurgencies in history.

In today’s world, traditional Bo staff techniques

can be adapted for use with pool cues, broom handles or long sticks and Nitan Bo techniques can be adapted to nearly any short stick or object on hand, including a rolled-up magazine.

Tuite, the grappling art of traditional Okinawan martial arts, focuses on joint locks and manipulations in order to gain control of an opponent.

Training includes knowledge of human anatomy to understand how joints, muscles, bones and nerves can be manipulated to produce the desired outcome in a potentially violent situation.

Sensei Tim noted these techniques are a critical

skill in law enforcement and military patrol for self-defense against much larger, stronger opponents, and can even be used to bring a suspect under control without combat.

He also noted the karate, kobudo and tuite classes are more intensive on the physical side at EKKC than at most schools.

“We do a full conditioning workout before we even start class,” he said. “We get a good burn, we learn how to work under pressure and we learn how to react when our bodies are tired.”

Each EKKC instructor is well-trained in teaching techniques in a progressive, controlled manner. In turn, students learn to practice methods with discipline, safety and control.

Sensei Tim assured proper sparring gear is worn during contact sessions and injuries requiring medical attention are rare.

Typically, teens and adults train five days a week at EKKC while youth train three days a week.

Students range in experience, body types, flexibility and stamina. Because the training includes stretching, movement and core building, a better body profile is an almost guaranteed side effect of Sensei Tim’s programs.

In regard to the self-defense classes offered at EKKC, women, kids and

families can arrange for private classes or participate in group classes.

A portion of the class focuses on such concerns as date rape, being in the wrong place at the wrong time, awareness of surroundings and what to do if you find yourself in a bad situation.

Discussion of legal

issues that can arise as a consequence of defending yourself is also provided.

Hands-on training in the self-defense class teaches students how to attack highly vulnerable spots on the human body if a threat emerges.

EVERETT — A retired Everett firefighter who was charged with a sex crime in 2014 now has had his paramedic license pulled.

The state health department suspended the license for David “Pete” Vier, 60, citing the criminal charges, according to a Tuesday news release.

Vier was arrested in November when Seattle police set up a sting, posing as a father selling his 15-year-old daughter online. Vier agreed to pay $150 for sex with the girl and requested contact with other teen girls, prosecutors allege.

After his arrest, Vier

retired from the Everett Fire Department, ending a 25-year career.

Public records show that for years, he had caused headaches for his bosses.

He had been accused multiple times of stalking ex-partners, once with a secret GPS device.

He is free on bail, charged in King County with attempted commercial sexual abuse of a minor. Vier cannot practice as a paramedic in Washington until after his criminal case is resolved.

Woman seriously injured in hit-run A 53-year-old Ferndale woman was critically injured Monday night after being struck by a car near Everett.

The incident was reported at 7:40 p.m. in the 200 block of 128th Street SW, while the victim was crossing the street, Snohomish County sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. It’s not yet clear if the woman was in a crosswalk at the time.

The driver took off, possibly onto I-5. No description of the suspect or the car was provided Tuesday. The victim is receiving care at a Seattle hospital, Ireton said.

Anyone who has information, including potential witnesses, should call detectives at 425-388-3845.

Ingraham heading to Bremerton The USS Ingraham, a decommissioned Oliver Hazard Perry-class frigate,

is scheduled Wednesday to be towed from Naval Station Everett to Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton.

Once in Bremerton, its responsibility will be given to the U.S. Navy’s Inactive Ships Office, which will strip it of its “USS” designation. The Ex-Ingraham, as it will be called, is scheduled to be dismantled for scrap.

The 25-year-old Ingraham was the last of the Navy’s frigates to be built, and given the motto “The Last and the Finest.” It had a full complement of 200 sailors and 30 officers, plus two SH-60B Seahawk helicopters. The Ingraham was decommissioned in November. The Navy is decommissioning its frigates and filling their role with littoral combat ships, a new class of fast and agile

The minivan rolled over, he said. All of the injured — a couple and their three children — were in the minivan. The children are ages 9, 4 and 3. Broadway was closed in both directions while the crash was investigated and the mess removed. The road reopened before noon.

There are other regional racing events in Snohomish County that feature running, bicycling and sometimes swimming, Dunn said. But the Powerman is one of only two international-caliber events in the county. The other is the Iron Man 70.3 triathlon in Lake Stevens, an annual race in August that draws up to 2,000 people. Monroe also hosts a triathlon for 13- to 19-year-olds that allows them to compete on a national level.

Athletes can register for the Stanwood Powerman at www.powermanusa. org. The city also is seeking volunteers to help with the duathlon, from distributing welcome packets to cleaning up after the race.

People can email Amanda Slattery at amanda.slattery@ci.stanwood.wa.us to volunteer.

Bill calls for end to Seattle tunnel project

By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — Two state senators say it’s time to scrap the stalled Seattle tunnel project and bury Bertha, the broken-down $80 million state-of-theart drilling machine, so the transportation department can find alternatives to fix or replace the viaduct that carries traffic along the city’s waterfront.

Republican Sens.

Michael Baumgartner and Doug Ericksen introduced a bill Tuesday that says the Alaskan Way Viaduct Replacement Project has failed “and the project as it is currently designed

cannot be justified financially.” The state needs to “stop throwing money at a hole in the ground,” said Baumgartner, from Spokane.

Sen. Curtis King, chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee, said the bill was referred to his panel but won’t get a hearing.

“While I understand my colleagues’ concerns regarding the Seattle tunnel project, a bill to shut down a project of this size is not realistic,” said King, R-Yakima. “I think most people know that this is a ‘mega project.’ You cannot bore a hole of that magnitude under a major city

and believe that there will not be challenges. There have been times when I too have been frustrated, but that doesn’t mean we can just walk away from contracts and agreements without serious financial consequences.”

Jaime Smith, spokeswoman for Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee, said the state is behind the tunnel plan.

“The Legislature already made a decision on this project, and right now we need a safe new arterial through Seattle more than we need a historical debate,” Smith said in an email.

Bertha only drilled

about 1,000 feet of the 2-mile tunnel before hitting a pipe and breaking down. The rescue plan — a 120-foot-deep access pit that will let workers pull Bertha out and repair it — has been “plagued with delays due to the discovery of artifacts, soil conditions, and water levels,” the bill said.

“The dewatering of large portions of downtown Seattle has likely caused over an inch of settling, thereby endangering structures of historic and cultural importance,” the bill said. “Ironically, this activity has caused concerns regarding the sinking of part of the viaduct itself,

despite the fact that the questionable structural integrity of the viaduct was one of the main reasons initially given for the need for the project.”

The viaduct replacement project, whose budget exceeds $3.1 billion, was launched amid promises that no significant cost overruns would occur and the state would not be responsible for any additional costs, Baumgartner said. But the state attorney general has said the law passed to control cost overruns is not enforceable, and “the state will be on the hook for those costs.”

Baumgartner said the final straw came last week

when Transportation Secretary Lynn Peterson met with the Senate Transportation Committee.

“Instead of taking responsibility, she just pointed the finger at the contractor,” he said. “I asked her how many other shafts are in Bertha’s path, and she said there were more shafts, manhole covers, all sort of things. This will get far, far worse before it’s over.

“It’s time to pull the plug.”

Laura Newborn, spokeswomen for the state Transportation Department, said officials were working on a response to the bill.

Mayor, 5 council members: Send elephants to sanctuary Associated Press SEATTLE — Seattle’s mayor and five City Council members are asking the Woodland Park Zoo to send its two elephants to a wildlife sanctuary rather than another zoo.

The Seattle Times reported that Mayor Ed Murray and council members Sally Bagshaw, Bruce Harrell, Mike O’Brien, Nick Licata and Kshama Sawant recommend that the elephants be transferred to a facility “that is focused primarily on the welfare of the animals.”

They sent their letter

Monday to zoo President and CEO Deborah Jensen.

Zoo officials announced in November that the two elephants, Chai and Bamboo, would be relocated to another accredited zoo so they could be part of a larger, social herd.

Murray and the council members ask that they be advised of the decision about placement no later than Feb. 27. The letter notes that an independent third party has offered to pay the cost of transporting the elephants if they go to a sanctuary.

There was no immediate response from the zoo.

Hartleben, a self-employed contractor, wanted to show his appreciation in a big way.

“I made field posts out of PVC. I put up a flagpole.

“Whatever she focuses on,” Hartleben said, “we will go all in on. Whatever she likes.”

They hope to get ADA tickets, or special seating for people with disabilities, to a preseason game next year. “She wants to go to a Hawks game, but she has sensory issues,” Hartleben said.

The couple plan to tie the knot next week, on Feb. 6, the date they met a decade ago.

Irene Amundson

August 27, 1917-January 25, 2015

Our loving mother, grand-

mother and great-grandmother went to be with the Lord on Januar y 25, 2015. Her family and wonderful caregivers had been by her side .

Irene was born August 27, 1917 in Omholt, Montana.

She was the 3rd child of Margaret and Peter Quande.

They moved to Skagit County that year and resided in Milltown, Wash.

Irene graduated from Mount Vernon High School and attended two years at what is now Skagit Valley Community College.

She married the love of her life, Wellington Kendell Amundson on June 11, 1935 at Fir Conway Lutheran Church. The couple lived in Stanwood, where they had two children, David and Linda. The family had a ver y happy and loving life.

Irene was the manager at Jerr y MacAf fee Insurance and then First Federal Insurance in Stanwood for many years. She was very active in Our Saviour s Lutheran Church, where in later years she became known as the “cookie lady”, calling members of the congregation to make sure there were cookies for cof fee hour ever y Sunday. In the 1950’s she was very involved with Camp Fire, Twin City Wives and 2 bridge groups which continued up until about five years ago. More recently she spent many hours volunteering for Housing Hopes Lervick Family Village as a Stanwood Ambassador and head of the pantry. In 2014 she was awarded the first “Distinguished Volunteer Award”

by Housing Hope.

Irene was preceded in death by her husband, Wellington; her mother and father; and her four siblings, Helen Barth, Stanley Quande, Grace Kinney and Peggy Creighton.

Obama defends U.S.-Saudi ties

By Julie Pace Associated Press

RIYADH, Saudi Arabia — In a show of solidarity with Saudi Arabia, President Barack Obama led a parade of American dignitaries to the ultraconservative desert kingdom Tuesday to pay respects after King Abdullah’s death and take measure of the new monarch, King Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud.

Obama’s presence here underscored the key role Saudi Arabia plays in U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East and highlighted Washington’s willingness to put national security priorities ahead of concerns about human rights issues. Hours before arriving in Riyadh, Obama spoke at length about the importance of women’s rights during an address in India, setting up a jarring contrast with his warm embrace of Saudi Arabia, a country where there are strict limits on women’s freedom.

Obama, like his recent predecessors, defended his willingness to forge close ties with the kingdom despite its array of human rights issues.

“Sometimes we need to balance our need to speak to them about human rights issues with immediate concerns we have in terms of counterterrorism or dealing with regional stability,” Obama said in an interview with CNN. First lady Michelle Obama accompanied the president during his four-hour visit to Riyadh. She dressed conservatively but did not cover her head, which is often standard for Western women visiting the kingdom but forbidden for Saudi women. Some members of the all-male Saudi delegation shook her hand as they

Associated Press

TOKYO — Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe expressed outrage and demanded Wednesday that Islamic State extremists release a Japanese journalist, as secret talks in Jordan sought the release of the Japanese and a Jordanian pilot also being held hostage.

The effort to free Japanese freelance journalist Kenji Goto and Jordanian Lt. Mu’ath alKaseasbeh gained urgency with the release of an apparent ultimatum late Tuesday from the Islamic State group.

In the message, the extremists say the two hostages will be killed within 24 hours — late Wednesday night Japan time — unless Jordan frees Sajida al-Rishawi, an Iraqi woman

greeted the Obamas, while others simply nodded to her as they passed by.

A senior administration official said Obama raised the issue of human rights broadly in his discussions with the king, but did not tackle specific matters, including the case of a Saudi blogger who was convicted of insulting Islam and sentenced to 10 years in prison and 1,000 lashes.

The president cut short his trip to India to visit Saudi Arabia after 90-year-old Abdullah’s death Friday. The schedule shift highlighted the degree to which the Middle East still has sway over Obama, even as he seeks to refocus U.S. foreign policy on places like India and

the Asia-Pacific.

Obama was joined in Riyadh

by Secretary of State John Kerry, along with Condoleezza Rice and James Baker, who led the State Department under Republican presidents. Former White House national security advisers Brent Scowcroft, Sandy Berger and Stephen Hadley also made the trip, as did Sen. John McCain, the Arizona Republican who is a frequent critic of Obama’s foreign policy in the Middle East.

CIA Director John Brennan and Gen. Lloyd Austin, commander of U.S. Central Command, which overseas military activity in the Middle East, joined the delegation.

King Salman greeted Obama

at the steps of Air Force One after it landed in Riyadh. Following a lavish dinner at the king’s opulent personal palace, Obama and Salman spent just more than an hour discussing a range of issues. Among them: the campaign against the Islamic State group, the Syrian civil war and the political chaos in Yemen. The Obama administration official said they also discussed Iran, both in the context of the U.S.-led nuclear negotiations and what Washington and Riyadh see as the Islamic republic’s destabilizing activities in the region.

Salman but did not stray from the positions the kingdom held during his half-brother Abdullah’s reign.

sentenced to death in Jordan for her involvement in a 2005 terrorist attack on a hotel that killed 60 people.

“This was an extremely despicable act and we feel strong indignation. We strongly condemn that,” Abe said.

“While this is a tough situation, we remain unchanged in our stance of seeking help from the Jordanian government in securing the early release of Mr. Goto.”

In Jordan, the pilot’s father, Safi al-Kaseasbeh, beseeched the government “to meet the demands” of the Islamic State group.

“All people must know, from the head of the regime to everybody else, that the safety of Mu’ath means the stability of Jordan, and the death of Mu’ath means chaos in Jordan,” he told The Associated Press.

About 200 of the pilot’s relatives protested outside the prime minister’s office in the Jordanian capital of Amman, chanting anti-government slogans and urging that it meet the captors’ demands.

A member of Jordan’s parliament said the country was in indirect talks with the militants to secure the hostages’ release.

Bassam Al-Manasseer, chairman of the foreign affairs committee, told Bloomberg News the negotiations are taking place through religious and tribal leaders in Iraq, adding that Jordan and Japan won’t negotiate directly with IS and won’t free al-Rishawi in exchange for Goto only.

A prisoner exchange would be contrary to the policy of Jordan’s main ally, the U.S., which opposes negotiating

with extremists. Manaseer’s comments were the strongest suggestion yet that Japan and Jordan might be open to a prisoner exchange.

Japan’s Deputy Foreign Minister Yasuhide Nakayama was in Amman to coordinate hostage-release efforts with Jordan, but refused to comment on the talks early Wednesday.

Goto’s mother expressed hope for his release, but also desperation.

“What has my child done wrong?” she said. “There’s no more time.”

The hostage saga involving the two Japanese nationals has stunned Japan and triggered criticism of Abe over the handling of the crisis.

The militants reportedly have beheaded one Japanese hostage, Haruna Yukawa.

Blizzard slams Boston, skips New York Associated Press BOSTON — Its winds howling at more than 70 mph, the Blizzard of 2015 slammed Boston and surrounding parts of New England on Tuesday with none of the mercy it unexpectedly showed New York City, piling up more than 2 feet of snow.

The storm punched out a 40-to-50-foot section of a seawall in Marshfield, Massachusetts, badly damaging a vacant home. In Newport, Rhode Island, it toppled a 110foot replica of a Revolutionary War sailing vessel in dry dock, breaking its mast and puncturing its hull.

The blizzard’s force and relentlessness stunned even winter-hardened New Englanders.

“It’s a wicked storm,” Jeff Russell said as he fought a mounting snowdrift threatening to cover a window at his home in Scarborough, Maine.

Obama to request big Pentagon budget WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama will ask Congress for a hefty, almost 8 percent boost for the Pentagon, including $5.3 billion to equip and train Iraqi soldiers and moderate Syrian rebels to fight Islamic State militants in the Middle East.

Obama will ask for $534 billion for the core budget of the Defense Department — a $38 billion increase — according to “pre-decisional” Pentagon documents obtained by The Associated Press. That means there could be some slight changes when the budget actually comes out Monday.

The increases are likely to find support among defense hawks on Capitol Hill, but Republicans controlling Congress are only in the early stages of figuring out how to pay for them.

Japan calls hostage deadline ‘despicable’

ACROSS THE U.S.

SEAN D. ELLIOT / THE DAY

Police officer Heather Buonanni tickets an illegally parked car along McKinley Avenue in Norwich, Connecticut on Tuesday.

The snow in New England began Monday evening and continued most of Tuesday.

A blizzard warning for Boston ended Tuesday evening as the snow tapered off, but one remained in effect for the south coast, Cape Cod and nearby islands.

The area also was dealing with bitter cold: The low

in Boston on Wednesday is expected to be 10 degrees, with wind chill minus 5, and forecasters said it will not get above freezing for the next week or so.

The Philadelphia-to-Boston corridor of more than 35 million people had braced for a paralyzing blast Monday evening and into Tuesday after forecasters warned of a

storm of potentially historic proportions.

The weather lived up to its billing in New England and on New York’s Long Island, which also got clobbered.

But in the New York City area, the snowfall wasn’t all that bad, falling short of a foot.

By Tuesday morning, buses and subways were starting to run again, and driving bans there and in New Jersey had been lifted.

The glancing blow left forecasters apologizing and politicians defending their near-total shutdown on travel.

Some commuters grumbled, but others sounded a bettersafe-than-sorry note.

National Weather Service director Louis Uccellini said his agency should have done a better job of communicating the uncertainty in its forecast.

But he also said the storm may in fact prove to be one of the biggest ever in some parts of Massachusetts.

Washington’s Democratic Rep. Denny Heck has been tapped to lead his party’s 25-member recruitment committee for next year. Heck, 62, is a second-term congressman from Olympia. With 247 members, Republicans now enjoy their strongest majority in the House since the Great Depression, and Democrats will need to pick up a net of 30 seats to take back control. Heck will head the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

N.D.: Mid-winter warmth As a blizzard slams the Northeast, mid-winter warmth is breaking records in the northern Plains. Record-high temperatures in the 50s and 60s were set in parts of the region Monday, and Tuesday temperatures climbed higher, reaching 73 degrees in Rapid City in western South Dakota, and 62 degrees in Dickinson in western North Dakota, according to National Weather Service reports. “Cold air from Canada is actually dipping down into the Northeast, and we’re getting mild air out of the Pacific,” said Todd Hamilton, a weather service meteorologist in Bismarck.

The mild weather wasn’t expected to last long with a cold front forecast for Wednesday bringing a chance of light snow to the region. Even colder weather is expected by the weekend, with some overnight lows dropping back below zero.

AROUND THE WORLD Gaza Strip: No U.N. aid A U.N. agency said Tuesday it had to suspend an aid program for Gaza war victims because of a shortfall of funding from donor countries. Robert Turner, head of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency in Gaza, said “virtually none” of the $5.4 billion pledged by the international community for post-war Gaza has reached the territory. “This is distressing and unacceptable,” he said. UNRWA helps refugees and their descendants from earlier Mideast wars — a majority of Gaza’s 1.8 million people. The agency said it needs $720 million to help 96,000 families from this group whose homes were damaged or demolished in the 2014 war.

Britain: KGB spy poisoned Former Russian agent Alexander Litvinenko was poisoned with radioactive polonium not once but twice, a British judge was told Tuesday, as an inquiry opened into the slaying one lawyer called an act of nuclear terrorism ordered by Moscow. Ben Emmerson, attorney for Litvinenko’s widow, said the KGB spy turned Kremlin critic was the victim of an “assassination by agents of the Russian state.” Litvinenko fell violently ill Nov. 1, 2006, after drinking tea with two Russian men at a London hotel. He died three weeks later, at 43, of “acute radiation syndrome.”

Libya: Gunmen kill 10 Gunmen stormed a luxury hotel used by diplomats and businessmen in Tripoli on Tuesday, killing 10 people, including an American, a French citizen and three people from Asia. Two attackers were killed following an hours-long standoff that included a car bomb that exploded in the parking lot of the seaside Corinthia Hotel. The attack also killed five Libyan guards. A Tripoli affiliate of the Islamic State group was said to be behind the attack, but there was little evidence to back up the claims. Cliff Taylor, the CEO of a Virginia security company, Crucible LLC, identified the slain American as David Berry, a contractor with his company.

Obama pushes for Atlantic drilling The White House also issues a memorandum declaring 9.8 million acres of Alaska’s offshore resources off limits.

By Dina Cappiello Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration floated a plan Tuesday that for the first time would open up a broad swath of the Atlantic Coast to drilling, even as it moved to restrict drilling

indefinitely in environmentally sensitive areas off Alaska.

The proposal envisions auctioning areas located more than 50 miles off Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia to oil companies no earlier than 2021, long after President Barack Obama leaves office. For

decades, oil companies have been barred from drilling in the Atlantic Ocean, where a moratorium was in place up until 2008.

The plan also calls for leasing 10 areas in the Gulf of Mexico, long the epicenter of U.S. offshore oil production, and three off the Alaska coast.

“This is a balanced proposal that would make available nearly 80 percent of the undiscovered technically recoverable

resources, while protecting areas that are simply too special to develop,” Interior Secretary Sally Jewell said in a conference call with reporters. “The areas off the table are very small in comparison to areas on the table.”

The plan, which covers potential lease sales in the 2017-2022 time frame, drew immediate reaction from Capitol Hill, where See DRILL, Page A12

Heavy machinery removes the last of a 1960s-era parking garage Monday in downtown Asheville, North Carolina. A developer will begin constructing a nine-story, upscale hotel with retail along the street — circling back to what was there before the ‘60s.

Falling out of favor Cities demolishing downtown parking garages

By Scott McFetridge Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa — They were supposed to be saviors of downtown, drawing people by offering parking as plentiful as at any suburban shopping mall.

But decades after cities tore down buildings and replaced them with parking structures, communities across the country are demolishing the garages and putting up buildings again, confident that more people will be drawn to lively offices, hotels and housing.

“Virtually every city is grappling with this,” said Tom Murphy, an urban revitalization expert and former mayor of Pittsburgh, referring to the demolitions designed to enliven dowdy business districts. “How do we create more vibrant places?”

Typical parking structures built in the 1960s and 1970s were functional but not very

charming, with blank gray walls and concrete ramps. Now that many mid-sized cities are trying to capitalize on renewed interest in living and working downtown, the wrecking balls are swinging.

No one tracks how many old parking garages are being replaced, but it’s happening more frequently, said Shannon Sanders McDonald, an architecture professor at Southern Illinois University. Cars will now be parked mostly underground, in upper stories or in spaces shielded from view.

The old-fashioned garages “are coming down,” she said.

In Des Moines, the city plans to tear down two downtown parking ramps that were built more than 40 years ago. One covers two blocks along busy Grand Avenue and stretches over a street, filling a void that once was home to a movie theater, roller rink and hotel. It will be replaced by a smaller building with two floors

of shops and parking above.

Assistant City Manager Matt Anderson said the city’s decision was prompted by the garages’ deterioration and a desire to get rid of the uninviting concrete edifice. Officials want more of the street-level stores that have helped transform a once-sleepy downtown into a busy district with nearly 10,000 residents and dozens of restaurants and bars.

“If not a lot of thought is put into a ramp, they can be a real eyesore,” he said.

In Asheville, North Carolina, a developer demolished a 1960sera garage in late December and plans to replace it with an upscale, nine-story hotel with retail shops. The structure will include parking that will be largely hidden from view.

If it feels as if you’re running through toilet paper rolls faster than ever before, that’s because you are.

Apple had another blowout quarter thanks to its new plussized iPhones, which helped the company smash sales records for the holiday season.

Apple said Tuesday that it sold 74.5 million iPhones during the three months that ended Dec. 31, beating analysts’ expectations for the latest models of Apple’s most popular gadget, introduced in September.

The surge in iPhone sales drove the company’s total revenue to $74.6 billion, up 30 percent from a year earlier.

Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer is spinning off the company’s prized stake in China’s Alibaba Group Holding in a move that will enable Yahoo to avoid paying billions of dollars in future taxes. A newly formed entity called SpinCo will inherit ownership of Yahoo’s 384 million Alibaba shares when the tax-free spin-off is completed toward the end of this year.

By Kristen Wyatt DENVER — Colorado’s marijuana experiment was designed to raise revenue for the state and its schools, but a state law may put some of the tax money directly into residents’ pockets, causing quite a headache for lawmakers.

The state Constitution limits how much tax money the state can take in before it has to give some back. That means Coloradans may each get their own cut of the $50 million in recreational pot taxes collected in the first year of legal weed. It’s a situation so bizarre that it’s gotten Republicans and Democrats, for once, to agree on a tax issue.

Even some pot shoppers are surprised Colorado may not keep the taxes that were promised to go toward school construction when voters legalized marijuana in 2012.

“I have no problem paying taxes if they’re going to schools,” said Maddy Beaumier, 25, who was visiting a dispensary near the Capitol.

But David Huff, a 50-yearold carpenter from Aurora, said taxes that add 30 percent or more to the price of pot, depending on the jurisdiction, are too steep.

“I don’t care if they write me a check, or refund it in my taxes, or just give me a free joint next time I come in. The taxes are too high, and they should give it back,” Huff said.

Legal weed has collided with the tax limitation movement because a 1992 voter-approved constitutional amendment called the Taxpayers’ Bill of Rights requires

Sales of new U.S. homes accelerated strongly in December. The Commerce Department said Tuesday that new home sales climbed 11.6 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 481,000. The gains were not enough to offset essentially flat home-buying over the course of 2014. Just 435,000 new homes were bought last year, a modest 1.2 percent improvement from 2013.

2014 unemployment Colorado’s unemployment rate fell by a third. Louisiana’s jumped nearly a quarter.

Across the country, changes in unemployment rates varied from state to state in 2014, but collectively the numbers pointed to a year of substantial improvement: Jobless rates fell in 46 states, and every one except Mississippi added jobs.

But Louisiana added a healthy number of jobs — just not enough to keep up with population growth.

makers of tissue and toilet paper, allowing companies to quietly, and effectively, raise prices per unit,” the Wall Street Journal noted in 2013.

On the surface, it might seem as though brands like Charmin and Scott are simply trying to sneak their way toward bigger profits in the personal hygiene aisle. And there’s some truth to that — companies are, after all, selling less toilet paper for the same price, and often doing it subtly.

But there’s a broader, and perhaps more important explanation, that is related only tangentially to toilet paper: The same few companies that make toilet paper also make other paper products, and those products haven’t been selling well lately.

“Paper towel volume is way down,” said Emily Balsamo, an industry analyst at market research firm Euromonitor. “There’s a lot of product rationalization happening right now.

Think touch-free paper dispensers.” Napkin sales have also fallen by 7 percent since 2009.

The thing about toilet paper rolls is that unlike paper towels, they’re much harder to replace, or even ration. Companies understand this very well.

“They’re hedging their bets with toilet paper, because Americans aren’t ever going to start skimping on toilet paper,” Balsamo said.

It’s possible, as Charmin noted in 2013 when the company was caught selling skimpier rolls, that the industry is shifting away from flimsy paper and toward more substantial sheets. If Charmin is selling better or stronger paper, which people would theoretically need less of, that might explain why sheets are getting more expensive.

But it seems unlikely that shrinking toilet paper rolls have been counterbalanced entirely by stronger fabric. And even if that were true, it doesn’t seem to align with what consumers actually want.

Sure, Americans might appreciate soft, strong and durable toilet paper

sheets. But above all, they value cheapness.

The market for standard toilet paper, which is the least expensive, is easily the industry’s largest segment, accounting for well over 60 percent of all sales.

And it’s still growing at roughly the same clip — approximately 2 percent per year — as any other.

gas in the Atlantic in the meantime, which is the initial step prior to drilling.

Environmental groups criticized the proposal, saying offshore drilling had not gotten safer in the years after the BP disaster.

But the oil industry applauded the move, saying much of the U.S.’s offshore potential remains untapped. Production from offshore areas accounts for 16 percent of the oil produced in the U.S. now.

According to documents obtained by The Associated Press through the Freedom of Information Act, at least four firms have filed applications with

federal fisheries managers to conduct wide-scale seismic imaging surveys in the Atlantic to explore for oil and gas deposits.

The applications for “incidental harassment” of marine animals including endangered right whales are being reviewed by NOAA Fisheries.

The projects involve towing seismic air guns behind vessels for hundreds of miles, over months and years.

The guns emit strong bursts of air and sound, which allow crews to create two-and-threedimensional images of the seafloor.

back into people’s pockets, and state officials are scrambling to figure out how to avoid doling out the money. It may have to be settled by asking Colorado voters, for a third time, to cast a ballot on the issue and exempt pot taxes from the refund requirement.

Republicans tend to say that marijuana should pay for itself — that general taxes shouldn’t pay for things like increased drug education and better training for police officers to identify stoned drivers.

After legalizing marijuana in 2012, Colorado voters returned to the polls the following year

and approved a 15 percent excise tax on pot for the schools and an additional 10 percent sales tax for lawmakers to spend.

Voters were told those taxes would generate about $70 million in the first year.

The state now believes it will rake in about $50 million.

But because the economy is improving and other tax collections are growing faster, Colorado is obligated to give back much of what it has collected. The governor’s budget writers predict the pot refunds could amount to $30.5 million, or about $7.63 per adult in Colorado.

$1.5 million to nearly $35 million.

Sam Powers, Asheville’s director of economic development, said the new building would add to the mix in the eclectic city.

“It provides the opportunity to get additional folks into the core of the city to see and visit a lot of the independent small shops and restaurants and craft breweries in town,” Powers said.

The demise of big garages is part of the continuing search for what makes downtowns work.

In the 1960s and 1970s, cities experimented with building pedestrian malls and replacing old buildings with civic buildings or public spaces.

Many of those efforts failed. Or as Murphy put it, “What were designers drinking or smoking in the 1960s?”

IN OUR VIEW | Snohomish County courthouse project

Re-examine courthouse plans Few in Snohomish County’s administration might admit it, but the city of Everett may have done the county a favor with its recently clarified parking requirement for the county’s courthouse project, putting the project on hold as it prepared to break ground later this year.

There’s growing sentiment among the County Council to step back and reconsider the current direction of the $162 million project, even when the project’s inertia is taken into account, as reported Tuesday by Herald Writer Noah Haglund.

Millions already have been spent to purchase the parking lot property across Wall Street from the courthouse and relocate the businesses that were there. Simply putting off the project, by the project contractor’s estimate, is going to cost the county $193,000 for each month its start is delayed. Nor are construction costs likely to become less

expensive in the future.

The County Council is expected to discuss whether to reevaluate the project at its regular Monday meeting.

It’s unfortunate the project advanced to this point before the city made clear its contention that the new courthouse would require the addition of 300 new parking spaces. Adding a parking facility now to the current project would cost another $20 million to $45 million, a figure a majority of the County Council has made clear is not within the project’s budget. Clearer communication between the city and the county could have saved the county significant money and effort.

But now that we’re here, before the county puts a shovel in the ground, it should reassess what it knows, what it doesn’t know and whether other options are worth investigating, including the scope of the project. Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe

has made it clear he doesn’t need a new building as much as he needs more people in his department and in the courts’ other departments.

The County Council rejected an earlier option to build the new facility at its current plaza location as too costly. The county should re-examine that conclusion and then reconsider if building a courthouse facility somewhere else in Everett or elsewhere in the county makes sense in terms of cost to the taxpayers and service to the public. The county charter specifies Everett as the county seat, but other counties have built courthouse facilities outside their official seat, specifically King, which built a regional justice center in Kent.

Moving the courthouse some distance from the county jail would require transporting defendants by vehicle, but that was going to occur with the facility built across Wall Street.

While that evaluation is

going on, the county would do well to have detailed conversations with the city about parking requirements if the courthouse is built at its current location, its proposed location or somewhere else in the city.

The county already has made a good case as to why the existing building, opened in 1967, isn’t a good candidate for a remodel. The building needs extensive seismic upgrades and replacement of its electrical, water and sewage systems. Finding temporary space during construction would also be costly and disruptive. And once work was complete, the expected service life of the building would only be extended by a decade.

Re-examining the courthouse project might still confirm the size and the selected location across Wall Street as the best option.

But the old woodshop teacher’s axiom still applies: Measure twice. Cut once.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■TERRORISM

Muslims must denounce acts As the world reels and grieves in the face of yet another horrific, cowardly and brutal radical Muslim jihadist attack on innocents, civilization, free speech and decency by a “small” part of Muslims, I am left to wonder: where is the voice and the outrage of the clerics, leaders, scholars and supporters of the supposedly nonviolent Quran who are in the vast majority of this religion? Why don’t I see or hear them on the news, in the papers and media decrying this distortion of their “faith” and denouncing the obviously twisted perpetrators of this disgusting and violent madness?

There are also those of us who rely on reality, feelings, the heart, compassion and an inner moral compass to guide us in life rather than gods, “deities,” prophets, messiahs, gurus, popes, Bibles, Qurans and “holy” books. I have never read an account of agnostic, atheist or humanist slaughter and mass murder in the name of our beliefs.

Can we start to address the underlying root causes and insanity of “religious” wars, crusades and mental illness?

Regardless of your persuasion, we know that our hard-working Seahawks may, or may not, win the next Super Bowl. And even in 2015, some may believe that the outcome of the “big game,” followed by hurricanes, pandemics, and

GUEST COMMENTARY | Marysville Pilchuck shooting

Finding solace by reaching out to others

By Bill Young

I

n the aftermath of the horrific school shooting at Marysville Pilchuck High School on Oct. 24, our region has been left grappling with inexplicable questions about how this could have occurred and what could have been done to prevent such an atrocity. Only God truly knows the real answers, but as a community we must embrace those affected by tragedy, assuring them that they are close to our hearts and deep within our thoughts and prayers.

Undoubtedly, we will struggle with these questions for many years to come and we may never have the answers that we are seeking. It is paramount to the healing process for the Marysville and Tulalip communities that we support one another and work toward a sense of unity in this matter.

We must bear in mind that there are thousands of people affected by such a tragedy and that the healing process will

take months or even years.

If there is any consolation from such a calamity, it is that the Marysville School District has a comprehensive school safety plan and that the emergency responders did an exemplary job as this incident unfolded. Moreover, that our youth have shown amazing resilience and the power to overcome seemingly insurmountable hardships.

Moving forward from this life-changing catastrophe will require vision, commitment, innovation and hard work, which is our absolute obligation to our children. The Marysville School District and Tulalip Tribes have a unique opportunity to make a substantial contribution to our community and to school districts throughout our nation as a result of this tragedy.

As time passes, it will be incumbent upon the leaders of the Marysville schools to assist other communities throughout our nation with information that was gleaned

from this incident. They must share their successes and failures; and convey the critical importance of community partnerships with the other stakeholders, including emergency responders, social service agencies, parent groups and even the faithbased communities. The leaders within our schools can provide moral support and suggested time frames to education leaders around the country that are left grappling for answers.

With the spirit of magnanimity and altruism that the Tulalip Tribes have always exhibited, there is the possibility that they could establish a school safety foundation, which could give back to the community by providing grants, training opportunities, consulting services and resources to districts that are still relatively rudimentary in their school safety plans. This foundation could provide a lasting legacy and positively impact communities for

generations to come.

As a parent, it gives me great comfort to comprehend that a school shooting is an absolute anomaly and that the statistical probability of such an event is minute. We must all understand that our schools are microcosms of our greater society; and that school safety is an integral component within the educational process, predicated upon the fact that if our children do not feel safe, they will not have the freedom to learn.

Bill Young is Cherokee Indians and grew up on the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

He attended Marysville schools and went on to work in the public school system as a school safety officer for more than a decade. He has acted as a school safety and youth violence consultant throughout the U.S., and is the founder of Kids Hearts Ministries, a charity devoted to impoverished youth and families.

For Seahawks, workers, 12 is a magic number

12

… 12… 12. It seems that everywhere we look, we see 12s.

Windows, doors, cars, shirts, socks … 12, 12, 12. Which is as it should be, leading up to the second Super Bowl in a row for the Seahawks.

There are 11 Seahawks on the field at any one time and they are surrounded by the masses of fans — the 12th JOHN BURBANK Man. 12 has come to own Seahawks football. The Seahawks are individual world-class athletes. But they win only as a team and we spur them on as a several-million-member community of fans.

So 12 is key to paving the way to the Super Bowl. It is also a key to decent pay in our state. In Olympia there is a movement for 12 as well. It won’t end on Sunday. It is a movement to establish $12 an hour as our statewide minimum wage. Right now the state minimum wage is $9.47. That comes out to an annual full-time wage of $19,697.60, which is $16,839 less than what the hypocritical and puritanical NFL chieftains fined Marshawn Lynch, Jermaine Kearse, and Chris Matthews at the NFC Championships for celebrating touchdowns.

Think about that $19,697.60. What could you do with all that money? $1,500 goes automatically to Social Security and Medicare. Then you could rent a one-bedroom apartment in Everett for $765 a month ($9,000 plus a year). That leaves you with about $9,000. Then you spend $150 on food each week. There goes another $8,000. You have $1,000 to go, with no car, no bus pass, no health coverage, no phone, no tuition money for education.

If we look back, we find a time in which the minimum wage purchased a lot more than now. In 1968, the minimum wage of $1.60 was the equivalent of $10.88 in 2014, or $1.56 more than what our minimum wage actually was last year. So looking forward, why not 12? It is a good number, a reasonable goal and certainly something that should be the floor for wages.

That is what Rep. Jessyn Farrell, D-Seattle has in mind. She is the author of the $12 minimum wage bill, House Bill 1355. She is joined by Snohomish County State Reps.

Cindy Ryu and Ruth Kagi, D-Shoreline; Derek Stanford, D-Bothell; Luis Moscoso, D-Mountlake Terrace; Lillian Ortiz-Self, D-Mukilteo; Strom Peterson, D-Edmonds; Hans Dunshee, D-Snohomish; and Mike Sells and June Robinson, D-Everett. There is an identical bill in the state Senate, sponsored by Snohomish County Senators Marko Liias, D-Mukilteo; Maralyn Chase, D-Shoreline; Rosemary McAuliffe, D-Bothell; and John McCoy, D-Tulalip.

This $12-an-hour minimum wage takes a conservative approach. It goes up to $10 in 2016, $10.50 in 2017, $11 in 2018 and $12 in 2019. After that, it has an automatic cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), to keep up with inflation. With these small steps, it is quite likely that when it reaches $12, it still won’t have the purchasing power that minimum wage workers had in 1968. So this bill is a step, but not the total solution to workers who work themselves into poverty when their employers pay them no more than our current minimum wage.

How will $12 help our economy? By putting more money into it. Minimum wage workers don’t have the luxury of investing their money. They spend it. In 2016, with the increase to $10 an hour, each worker will earn about $1,000 more.

By 2018, at $12 an hour, these workers will earn $2.53 more per hour, adding up to $5,000 a year. For the approximately 300,000 workers who will directly benefit, that equals about $1.5 billion a year altogether. That’s good for the economy and good for business. For these workers, it means they might be able to do a little better than just pay the rent and utilities.

They might actually be able to enjoy a beer and eat some nachos, like pretty much all of us will be doing next Sunday.

So let’s not let 12 end when the clock runs down at the Super Bowl on Sunday evening, win or lose. Increasing the minimum wage to $12 enables us to own 12 in our hearts. It is the right thing to do. It is a win for all of us! Go Hawks!

John Burbank is the executive director of the Economic Opportunity Institute, www.eoionline.org. Email him at john@ eoionline.org.

In Olympia there is a movement for 12 as well.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Keep everything in perspective. Overreacting will lead to regret.

Think carefully before you make a decision that will alter a partnership or change the way you live. Focus on work and incorporating innovative solutions that will offer you a more efficient way of doing things.

Your numbers are 8, 12, 24, 26, 30, 35, 49.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Open up conversations with people you believe have something to contribute. Stretch your imagination and diversify your goals until you find common ground with the people you want to include in your plans. ��� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Concentrate on your responsibilities before someone complains. Don’t be afraid to take a different approach when faced with a challenge.

The solutions you come up with will exceed those of anyone competing with you. ��� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You can make changes, but don’t expect everyone to follow your lead. Expanding your living quarters or indulging in something that will make your personal life more fulfilling should be your goal. ��� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Do things differently. The more unique you are, the more attention you will get. A partnership will undergo change based on what you implement into your lifestyle and how you want to move forward. ���� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Opportunities to travel, learn and interact with people you find interesting are apparent. Do your best to avoid an emotional situation that is geared to disrupt your plans for success. ��

Seattle’s Marshawn Lynch’s seat remains empty after he briefly met with reporters as teammates continue to field questions during Media Day for Super Bowl XLIX Tuesday.

Cable promises to enjoy Super Bowl this time

Seahawks’ Lynch shows up at Media Day so he ‘won’t get fined,’ doesn’t say much

Seahawks’ O-line coach and Snohomish native was too worried to enjoy last year’s game.

By John Boyle Herald Writer

PHOENIX — Well, at least Marshawn Lynch was honest during his brief appearance at Super Bowl XLIX Media Day. Verbose? Hardly, but Lynch made no effort to hide the fact that he was there only because he didn’t want to pay another fine to the NFL. In recent years, the Seahawks running back has become almost as famous for his standoffs with the media as for his on-field performance, so the biggest question coming into Media Day was what he would or wouldn’t say, presuming he even showed up. All players are required to attend and be available, so not showing up or not talking almost certainly would have led to a big

fine for Lynch, who already has paid $100,000 this year for violating the league’s media policy.

Lynch did show up and talk to a huge throng of reporters for just under five minutes, but he didn’t say much other than to repeatedly explain his presence in the most blunt way possible.

Lynch sat down and set a timer on his phone, then told everyone See LYNCH, Page C4

PHOENIX — Before the Seattle Seahawks took off for Phoenix and Super Bowl XLIX, Tom Cable made himself a promise.

He was going to enjoy the Super Bowl experience this time around.

The Seahawks’ offensive line coach and assistant head coach Tom Cable obviously enjoyed the outcome of last year’s game, a 43-8 victory, but he was too worried about the big game to really appreciate that he was part of a team that had reached

MP prevails over Arlington in OT Painter scores 29 as Tommies hold off Eagles 64-59 in Wesco 3A battle.

By David Krueger Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — Marysville Pilchuck versus Arlington is quickly becoming must-see basketball.

Less than three weeks after the teams’ first contest ended in a buzzer-beater that wound up on SportsCenter, the Eagles and Tomahawks again went down to the wire.

On Tuesday night, Marysville Pilchuck prevailed over Arlington for the second time this season with a 64-59 Wesco 3A North win at Arlington High School

that needed overtime to crown a winner.

“Just another day at the office for the Arlington and Pilchuck guys. Wow,” said Marysville Pilchuck head coach Bary Gould. “...

They battled and so did we. It’s a fun high school basketball game.

If you’re a fan, I think that’s really cool. For me, I’m getting gray hairs, balding and having a heart attack.”

Michael Painter scored 29 points for Marysville Pilchuck (5-1 league, 12-4 overall), including nine in the fourth quarter as the Tomahawks held off a surging Arlington team.

The Eagles, who trailed by as many as 10 in the final period, rallied late thanks to a 3-pointer and a pair of free throws by Nathan Aune with 21 seconds

remaining in the game to tie the score at 55.

Aune got another shot off before the final buzzer sounded but Marysville Pilchuck’s Nate Heckendorf blocked the shot to send the game to overtime.

“We just talked about playing fearless,” Painter said. “We had a big crowd — families, friends on either side — at first we came out with a little anxiety. We were thinking a little too much. I was thinking too much.”

The overtime period belonged to the Tomahawks. Josh Bevan netted a jumper and a 3-pointer from NBA distance, Painter notched a bucket and Heckendorf added a score to help Marysville Pilchuck pull away.

Khoroshilov wins slalom Associated Press SCHLADMING, Austria — Alexander Khoroshilov won a night slalom on Tuesday for the first Russian World Cup victory in more than three decades.

Khoroshilov’s time of 1 minute, 46.39 seconds beat second-place Stefano Gross of Italy by 1.44.

PHOENIX — Marshawn Lynch was “here so I don’t get fined.”

We learned that 29 times over four minutes and 51 seconds, in fact.

Super Bowl 49’s Media Day/ circus/theater of the absurd Tuesday at the U.S. Airways Center also had clowns. It had Spanish-speaking puppets screaming “Go Tom!” — or was it “Vamos Tomas!”? — to Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

It had an sizeable male interviewer wearing nothing but a barrel and a cowboy hat, Richard Sherman salsa dancing — and Cliff Avril summing it up perfectly.

“This is nuts,” the Seahawks’ defensive end said.

And that was just at the start.

People paid $32 per ticket — $22 with a military discount.

Many did so to sit in the arena’s upper deck. To observe interviews, to which they could listen on headphones they got on the way in.

As always, Media Day was light on nuts-and-bolts of Sunday’s huge game.

It was crushingly heavy on fluff.

A woman tried to hit Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman with Patriots owner Robert Kraft and NFL commissioner Roger Goodell not being as buddy-buddy as the Seahawks cornerback said Sunday. She cited pictures of Goodell at Kraft’s house before this month’s AFC title game in New England. Sherman said that upon the team’s arrival here, his evidence to opine no league punishment will come out of its investigation of the Patriots’ deflated balls in that game.

She asked him “did you do your research?”

“It’s not difficult to do your research,” Sherman fired back.

“I obviously did. In which way was I incorrect?”

The woman went on with her objection to Sherman’s view.

The cornerback found that objection unfounded.

“It’s hard to talk to someone who has no information.

It’s difficult. It’s difficult. I wish this would be a better debate,” Sherman said, pantomiming give-and-take between him and her with his hands. “But it’s not. The levels aren’t there for us.”

He had one hand flat far above his other one.

The fans watching and hearing from the stands this one-sided argument on the

arena’s big-screen video board roared and whistled.

That made Sherman’s response to another question even more telling.

“Name the most Stanford thing about me?” Sherman parroted back the question.

“My degree.”

At another podium, Michael Bennett continued his tour de force this month as a national breakout star.

Or have you already forgotten the cop’s bicycle the ultra-glib defensive end commandeered on the CenturyLink Field turf immediately after Seattle’s miraculous rally past Green Bay in the NFC title game two weeks ago?

There’s a levity to Bennett that was refreshing amid Tuesday’s chaos. He again wore the favorite cowboy hat of his great friend and long-time mentor Mark Alexander, who died two weeks ago back in his hometown of Houston from cancer.

Bennett received the white hat from Alexander’s wife when Bennett flew home for the funeral last week. He’s been wearing it since, “for good luck,” he said.

Bennett had a, um, unique theory why the media and Lynch don’t get along.

“It’s like when you are dating a woman,” Bennett said. “You can’t be too aggressive when you are trying to get to ‘first base.’

“I think sometimes you guys are too aggressive, so you never get (there).”

Then: “Hey Mike, why doesn’t anyone like the Seahawks outside the Pacific Northwest?”

“People hate us because when you talk a lot of smack people usually hate you,” Bennett said.

“Talk a lot of smack and back it up, people hate you more.”

One of the keys to Sunday’s game is New England’s offensive linemen getting off the ball quickly enough to reach Bennett before he’s already in the Patriots’ backfield. Bennett has been a disruption to almost every team he’s faced this season by anticipating snap counts and using his quickness to ruin running plays and quarterbacks’ days both as a regular end and then tackle inside when Seattle goes to five defensive-back “nickel” packages on passing downs.

Why does Bennett think he is quicker than most offensive linemen?

Some of the linemen are overweight and I’m in shape,” he said. “I do Total Gym.” But wait, isn’t he stressed at having to face six-time Super Bowl quarterback Brady, All-World tight end Rob Gronkowski and the Patriots’ offense on Sunday?

“I’m never stressed, man,” Bennett said. “I wake up every day and look in the mirror and say ‘Damn, I look good.’”

Some (apparently) Florida reporters wanted to talk about how the formerly undrafted Bennett — one of the whopping 22 undrafted Seahawks on the 53-man roster for this Super Bowl — spent his first four NFL seasons (2009-12) playing for mostly woeful Tampa Bay. How thankful is he that he broke in for the Buccaneers?

“I’m thankful I’m not with the Bucs,” Bennett said.

Bennett didn’t mind the frenzy. He said he loved the fans and their hype and interest, how it drives and is in fact needed for the NFL’s multibillion-dollar annual machine.

“Playing in front of nobody would feel like playing in the CFL,” Bennett said of the Canadian Football League, “and that wouldn’t be fun.”

Postcard from the Super Bowl

I

t was suggested by one writer on Tuesday, via Twitter, that Marshawn Lynch made a mockery of Super Bowl Media Day by saying, “I’m just here so I won’t get fined” 29 times before ducking out early.

I don’t say this to defend Lynch — I absolutely would prefer if Lynch was available to the media and gave real answers — but that Tweet was wrong. Really, Super Bowl Media Day makes a mockery out of Super Bowl Media Day. Seahawk tight end Luke Willson perhaps summed the day up best by saying, “it’s a bit of a gong show in here, but I’m having fun.” As my friend Jayson Jenks from the Seattle Times put it, calling Media Day a zoo is an insult to the organization of zoos. But if you get past the fact very little real journalism goes on, and as long as you’re not claustrophobic, the whole production can be entertaining.

Media Day is the kind of place where famous ESPN and NFL Network personalities share space with a guy wearing a barrel, or people asking questions with puppets, or a grown man in a super hero costume, or… well, you get the point. Not long after taking up position in front of the space reserved for Seahawks defensive end/quote machine Michael Bennett, a few of us were approached by somebody with NBC who wanted to make sure Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir would be able to get their questions asked.

Media Day: where former figure skaters turned TV personalities ask a defensive end about his beard.

Later, I saw an Al Jazeera reporter try to give Seahawks defensive coordinator Dan Quinn a ball pump with a pink bow attached, a not-at-allsubtle shot at the Patriots deflated football scandal. Seattle running back Christine Michael, who apparently loves the attention of Media Day, ran around with reporter Georgina Holguin from Televisa Deportes trying to get his teammates to salsa dance with her. Several Seahawks, Richard Sherman included, obliged.

Logistically, Media Day is kind of a nightmare because the NFL decides to cram it into an NBA arena rather than the old format of putting it in the actual stadium. Doing this last year when the game was in New York made sense because of weather. But in Phoenix, it seemed silly to shoehorn everyone into a smaller building.

Alas, the craziest day of the week is now in the books and we can turn our focus back to more important topics, like deflated footballs. No wait, that’s not right. Well, at least the gong show is over, now it’s time to head off to the official Super Bowl media party.

Which is a can’t-miss event this week, because, well, free food!

Schneider: New deal for Wilson presents challenges

By Gregg Bell

Wilson’s contract) is.”

Asked how important it is to compensate Wilson handsomely now and not have him be so underpaid, Schneider said: “It’s important. It’s a huge piece of our puzzle, obviously, moving forward.

“We have a lot of different models that we work with, so we just have to figure out where that is going to go.”

The News Tribune

PHOENIX — Russell Wilson usually visits Seattle Children’s hospital each Tuesday throughout the season.

On this one, of course, he was detoured away to the Super Bowl. That didn’t stop him from reconnecting with the kids there from afar in the desert.

“To all kids in all of Children’s Hospital — obviously, I go to Children’s Hospital every Tuesday in Seattle and unfortunately I had to miss today — but to all of the kids out there, I’m just praying for you guys and praying for miracles,” the Seahawks quarterback said at the Super Bowl’s Media Day. “Keep the faith and be ‘strong against cancer.’ That’s something I’ve been really big into in Seattle. I’m just rooting for everybody.”

All of the Northwest is rooting for him to remain the region’s franchise quarterback beyond his rookie contract expiring following next season.

Wilson’s four-year deal as Seattle’s third-round draft choice in 2012 is paying him $662,000 this season and is due to pay him $798,000 next season. It’s the biggest bargain in sports.

That means Wilson’s overdue for a new deal. The first full day NFL rules allow Seahawks

Browner: “No hard feelings”

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson laughs after being handed a pair of briefs during Super Bowl Media Day on Tuesday in Phoenix.

general manager John Schneider and his negotiators to talk to Wilson and his agent, Mark Rodgers, or any player from the 2012 rookie class (such as also-due linebacker Bobby Wagner), is Monday — the day after Seattle’s season ends.

How big a challenge will this be for the Seahawks this imminent offseason?

“It presents challenges, there is no question. We haven’t sat down with his representatives,”

Schneider said Tuesday. “We are still going to be drafting young players and playing young players, so we might not be able to dip into free agency like you may want to here and there or compensate somebody else that you want to compensate that is already on your team. But just the fact that we’re going to continue to keep drafted players and playing young players should help us compensate for whatever level of compensation (for

Patriots cornerback Brandon Browner drew a crowd — at the same corner podium spot Marshawn Lynch sat momentarily later. His throng included two SeaGal cheerleaders that traded high-fives with the former Seahawk.

Browner is still considered by the Seahawks to be a member of their “Legion of Boom” secondary; they say he always will be because he was a charter member through last season.

But Browner made waves this week when he told ESPN he would encourage his teammates on offense to target the sprained left elbow of Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman and the dislocated left shoulder of fellow Seahawks All-Pro defensive back Earl Thomas.

“Those are my brothers, and at the end of the day there’s no hard feelings,” Browner said. “That’s like in any game; you have a guy that messes his ankle up and you’re going to tackle and make sure you land on his ankle. ... That’s just part of the game.

“You guys know how close I am to those boys.”

Injury to Z. Argue mars GP win over Scots said. “He was talking to us. It was all precautionary at this point. We’ll know more later.”

The teams were given three minutes to warm up after Argue was transported to the hospital before play resumed. When it did, the Grizzlies rallied for their fallen teammate.

Glacier Peak went on a 12-2 run and went on to win 50-43.

With his brother on the way to the hospital, senior Jacob Argue led the charge. Argue scored the first five points for Glacier Peak after play resumed. His free throw with 6:10 to play in the fourth quarter gave the Grizzlies their first lead of the game. “(Zach’s) brother was pretty incredible,” Hunter said. “He hit some super shots and was really special. He asked me and said, ‘Coach, I really want to go in for him.’ And I said, ‘You bet.’”

Argue wasn’t done, his 3-pointer with 1:35 to play in the game gave the Grizzlies a 46-36 lead and all but put the game out of reach .

SNOHOMISH — It’s impossible to deny how big of a role sports play in today’s society, but sometimes we are all reminded that there are more important things in life.

Tuesday was one of those nights.

With Shorecrest leading Glacier Peak 34-32 with 7:26 to play in the fourth quarter of a game that will have a lot to say about who wins the Wesco 3A/2A South regular-season championship in boys basketball, Glacier Peak junior Zach Argue had his shot blocked

by Shorecrest’s Brantle Harris and fell to the floor, awkwardly landing on his head.

Coaches and trainers immediately responded to Argue, who could be seen moving his feet and later his arms but for the most part laid motionless. An ambulance was called and Argue was taken on a stretcher to a local hospital to be evaluated.

“It was all precautionary is what they told us,” Glacier Peak head coach Brian Hunter

how he was feeling,” Argue said. “I thought the best thing I could do was either go with him, which I definitely thought about, or just go out and give it everything.”

Argue finished with nine points, all of which came after his brother’s injury.

“When one of ours goes down, it’s just not something you want to have happen,” Jacob Argue said. “To go out with a loss would have been unthinkable.”

The Scots scored the first basket when play resumed early in the fourth quarter. After that, the Grizzlies held Shorecrest scoreless for more than five minutes of actual game time.

“I think our kids are just mentally tough,” Hunter said. “They practice hard and they believe in playing until the end. I think they were just playing for their friend and their brother out there.”

Hunter and his players stood next to their teammates as he was placed on the stretcher and led the crowd in applause as he was wheeled out of the gym.

After the game, emotions were still running

high for Hunter and his players.

“It’s a big deal,” Hunter said. “It’s one of your guys. I told my players that it’s like my son out there. It scares me to death to see him like that. I think the kids love him too. It’s definitely not what you want to have happen at a high-school basketball game.”

The Scots, who played without leading scorer Drew Magaoay who missed the game with a sprained ankle, came in trailing the Grizzlies by 11⁄2 games in the league standings. Shorecrest could have pulled even in the loss column with a win and put itself in position for a league championship. Instead, the title would appear to be Glacier Peak’s to lose.

“It seems like such an insignificant thing,” Hunter said. “I don’t know if we’re really thinking about that. I think we’re just thinking about our teammate...I think the kids are happy that they got the win for Zach.”

After the game, tensions between the Shorecrest and Glacier Peak fans ran high, and the Snohomish County sheriff arrived to clear the gym and order the crowd to disperse.

Lynch was courteous enough to walk down from the podium and pick up a microphone he accidentally knocked off the table in front of him, but after returning to his seat, he looked at his phone, said “Time,” and exited stage left.

Whether that will satisfy his media requirement in the eyes of the NFL remains to be seen, but Lynch at least deserves credit for his honesty, if not his openness.

Orioles acquire Snider from Pirates Associated Press BALTIMORE — The Baltimore Orioles acquired outfielder Travis Snider from the Pittsburgh Pirates for a minor league pitcher and a player to be named.

The teams announced the trade Tuesday night.

The Pirates got left-hander Stephen Tarpley.

The 26-year-old Snider, who played at Jackson High School, hit .264 with 13 home runs and a careerbest 38 RBI in 140 games for the Pirates last season.

He was a first-round draft pick by Toronto in 2006.

the pinnacle of the sport.

“I promised myself getting on the plane the other day that I was going to come down here and have fun,” Cable said. “Last year I had fun because the game turned out fun, but I don’t know how much I enjoyed it from the minute we got to New York until it was over. I wanted to do that this year, I wanted to enjoy it and take it all in, and it’s been a blast.”

Cable, a 1982 graduate of Snohomish High School, is having as much fun coaching this season as he ever has, which is perhaps why it has been easier to remember to have fun even on football’s biggest stage. In a year in which the Seahawks had four different centers start at least three games — and it’s hard to overstate how important that position is to the offensive line’s ability to function — the Seahawks set a franchise record by rushing for 2,762 yards, the highest total in the NFL since Atlanta, with Cable as its line coach, had 2,939 in 2006.

While left tackle Russell Okung and left guard James Carpenter missed some time, and center was a revolving door, the right side of the line, the “stable” side, was manned by a defensive tackle Cable turned into a guard at the NFL level, J.R. Sweezy, and a rookie right tackle, Justin Britt, who had his struggles, but

“These guys have known each other forever, so it’s always going to be a good battle,” said Arlington head coach Nick Brown. “... Our guys, they’re going to bring a little extra for (MP) and they did.”

Bevan finished with 15 points and four steals for Marysville Pilchuck.

Heckendorf added 14 rebounds and five blocks, including another as overtime wound down.

“Painter was incredible, (Bevan) was huge in the overtime — it’s a complete team effort,” Gould said. “I could go down the line.”

It was a big win for Painter, a sophomore two years ago on a Marysville Pilchuck squad that went 1-19. Tuesday night was the first victory of Painter’s career in the Arlington gymnasium.

“It’s huge,” Painter said.

“Personally, I’ve never won at Arlington before in my four years at MP. This is a lot of firsts for me. It’s

NEW YORK — The New York Yankees are thinking about not making a $6 million payment to Alex Rodriguez if he hits six home runs and ties Willie Mays at 660 for fourth place on the career list.

Rodriguez signed a $275 million, 10-year contract with the team in December 2007 and a separate marketing agreement that called for $6 million payments for up to five milestone accomplishments designated by the Yankees. Each payment is due within 15 days of designation and is in exchange for rights such as using Rodriguez’s

name and image in selling licensed goods.

At the time of the marketing agreement, those accomplishments were contemplated to be tying the home run totals of Mays, Babe Ruth (714), Hank Aaron (755) and Barry Bonds (762), and breaking Bonds’ record.

Rodriguez returns to the team next month after a season-long drug suspension and has three seasons and $61 million in guaranteed money remaining in his contract.

A failure to declare a milestone and make a payment likely would trigger a grievance on Rodriguez’s behalf by the Major League Baseball Players Association. Barring a settlement, the case would be heard by an arbitrator.

improved as the year went on.

“Yeah (it has been a challenging year), but it was also one of the most fun, too,” Cable said. “I really enjoyed what they accomplished, because it’s hard to do that, period, if you’re healthy, and to do it the way we had to with all the changes, yeah, it’s very pleasing.”

Cable doesn’t like taking credit for Seattle’s rushing success or for the team’s ability to survive a revolving door at center, but his ability to help build the team’s depth by turning late-round picks and undrafted players — and yes, defensive linemen — into productive NFL linemen has been huge for Seattle this season.

“Tom’s got a great system and he has worked really hard at the communications and verbiage and the principles of the language, (which is) so important, and it is really embedded,” Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said. “He is a great teacher and he takes great pride to make sure that group is really coordinating well.

He moves guys around a lot over the course of the year to make sure they are well versed on the line, so that when you’re forced to make those decisions, guys are better versed and prepared for it. He does a masterful job.

“It hasn’t been easy — we have a had a lot of changes this year, I don’t know what the numbers are on that — but there’s been a lot of moving parts and he has commanded it really well for us.”

Carroll isn’t the only

person to describe Cable as a teacher. He likes to refer to himself that way — the hands-on element of coaching is what he says he missed most during his stint as a head coach in Oakland — and his players see Cable that way too.

“I think that just speaks to his ability to be able to teach,” center Max Unger said of the Seahawks thriving despite so many line injuries. “It’s a specific player that he’s looking for ... He takes a lot of pride in teaching us and having the backups able to come in and play and not have a drop off in it.”

Okung, whose tenure in Seattle predates Cable by a year, says, “He’s our leader on offense, especially with the offensive line. I wouldn’t be here and wouldn’t be the player I am without him.”

A big part of what has made Cable’s time in Seattle, and in particular these two Super-Bowl seasons, is that he can share it with those closest to him. It’s a fairly regular occurrence to see Ed Lucero, Cable’s line coach at Snohomish who is still coaching — as a guest at Seahawks practice. Longtime Snohomish head coach and current athletic director Mark Perry was also at a recent practice with Lucero.

“There’s a lot of pride in Snohomish about football, and if you grew up in it, it was a special time there,” Cable said. “Growing up there was pretty cool, and for them to be a part of it is pretty unique.”

just great for us to experience that. As a team it’s good for us to go through adversity and then really come back at the end and finish the game.”

“Michael played really well tonight,” Brown said.

“He really had a good game and gave us some problems.”

Aune led the way for Arlington (3-3, 11-5) with 22 points and 12 rebounds. He scored all seven of the Eagles’ thirdquarter points and added nine in the fourth quarter to help Arlington force overtime.

Tylor Morton scored 11 points and grabbed five rebounds and Connor Bovard and Drew Bryson added eight points apiece for the Eagles.

“I thought we did a good job on our end and we had some players step up and make some big plays,” Brown said. “They had a 10-point lead with four minutes to go and I still wasn’t worried about it. I felt like our guys were just getting going. “... I couldn’t be more proud of my guys tonight.

They played hard and we came back and we fought until the end, like we

always do.”

Arlington led a backand-forth first half 27-21 at halftime before Marysville Pilchuck outscored the Eagles 18-7 in the third quarter. The Eagles’ fourth-quarter run helped them get the game to overtime in a contest that rivaled the teams’ thrilling 54-53 game on Jan. 9, where the Tomahawks were also victorious.

“Obviously, they came out and were excited and wanted some revenge,” Gould said. “They played one heck of a first half and we had a good third quarter to get back the lead.

But man, they weren’t going anywhere were they?”

It’s possible Arlington and Marysville Pilchuck could meet up for Round 3 in February’s 3A District 1 tournament, with a regional berth on the line.

A third meeting appears to be OK with both squads.

“Arlington, that’s a team of competitors,” Painter said. “They’re nice guys, they all work hard. That’s what happens when you put two teams together that are just competitive.”

Snider has a career .246 batting average with 50 home runs.

No milestone for A-Rod?

Subsequent to the recording of the Deed of Trust, CLS assigned all of its interest in the Loan to RTI, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company (“Beneficiary”), pursuant to that Assignment of Deed of Trust recorded in the official records of Snohomish County, Washington under Recording No. 201305300545. The Deed of Trust was granted to secure a loan made to Borrower as evidenced by a promissory note, (the “Note”) dated May 15, 2013 in the original maximum principal amount of $8,764,274.00 (the “Loan”). No action commenced by the Beneficiary of the Deed of Trust and the secured party under the Security Agreement, or the Beneficiary’s successor is now pending to seek satisfaction of the obligation in any Court by reason of the Borrower’s default on the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust. The default for which this foreclosure is made is for Borrower’s failure to pay the Loan in full on or before July 2, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”). The following is an itemized summary of the amounts that are now in arrears: Matured principal balance: $8,715,424.61 Interest accruing at the note rate from 5/16/13 to 10/31/14: $85,332.67 Interest accruing at the default rate from 7/2/14 to 10/31/14 (above the note rate): $139,425.56 Default fee: $87,142.04 Attorneys’ fees and costs in connection with default: $8,368.00 TOTAL AMOUNTS IN ARREARS: $9,035,692.88 The sum owing on the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust and Security Agreement is: Principal balance, $8,715,424.61, together with interest as provided in the Note or other instrument secured from May 16, 2013, and such other costs and fees as are due under the Note or other instrument secured, and as are provided by statute. The Property will be sold to satisfy the expense of sale and the obligation secured by the Deed of Trust and Security Agreement as provided by statute. The sale will be made without warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances on February 6, 2015. The defaults referred to in paragraph III must be cured by January 26, 2015 (11 days before the sale) to cause a discontinuance of the sale. The sale will be discontinued and terminated if at any time before January 26, 2015 (11 days before the sale date) the default as set forth in paragraph III is cured and the Trustee’s fees and costs are paid.

The sale may be terminated any time after January 26, 2015 (11 days before the sale) and before the sale by the Borrower, any Guarantor (defined below), or the holder of any recorded junior lien or encumbrance paying the entire principal and interest secured by the Deed of Trust, plus costs, fees, and advances, if any, made pursuant to the terms of the obligation and/or Deed of Trust, and curing all other defaults.

EVERETT — The results weren’t pretty for the Everett Silvertips.

Last weekend Everett had its WHL Western Conference showdown against the Kelowna Rockets. The Rockets were the top team in the league, while Everett was the U.S. Division leader and on a roll. So it was a chance for the Tips to measure themselves against the best — and a chance to announce themselves among the league’s top contenders.

But if the weekend’s two games in Kelowna were a heavyweight prizefight, the Rockets won by unanimous decision.

Kelowna put Everett in its place, outlasting the Tips 5-3 in the first game Friday, then thrashing Everett 9-3 in the second game Saturday to reassert its position as the team to beat in the conference.

Yet despite the lopsided results, the Tips came away from the two games feeling confident about their ability to compete with the

Rockets.

“We definitely can play right with them,” was Everett overage forward Brayden Low’s evaluation of the team’s performance against Kelowna. “The first game we were right there the whole time. I think it was a pretty good measuring stick for the guys to know we’re right at the top with those guys. Obviously the second game wasn’t a good indication of what type of team we are.”

Everett entered the weekend with a chance to put a little heat on Kelowna for first place in the conference, as the Tips trailed the Rockets by just seven points in the standings.

However, the two losses allowed Kelowna to stretch its advantage back to double digits, which is where it’s been most of the season against the rest of the west.

Nevertheless, the Tips were emphasizing the positive following Tuesday’s informal practice at Xfinity Arena.

“There were a lot of guys competing hard,” said Tips winger Patrick Bajkov, who scored goals in both games.

“You can only ask for so much during these long stretches. I thought we stuck with it all right.

It got away at the end, o bv i o u s l y , Brayden Low but you just have to prepare for next time.”

The first game was an even contest. Everett outshot Kelowna 31-26, and it was an empty-net goal in the game’s dying seconds that created the two-goal final margin.

The deciding factor ended up being special teams. Kelowna scored on both of its power-play chances as Everett couldn’t find a way to stop the Rockets when they had the advantage.

Meanwhile, the Tips struggled mightily on their own power play, rarely creating any scoring chances during their first three opportunities before finally scoring a power-play goal on their fourth try with less than minute remaining.

“It felt pretty even, and at the end of the game we felt pretty disappointed we didn’t win the game,” Low said.

But the second game was a different story. Everett was playing its fourth road

game in five nights, as well as finishing up a stretch in which 12 of its 14 games were on the road — including its two lengthy bus rides of the season. In addition, injuries to defenseman Jordan Wharrie and winger Gunnar Wegleitner earlier on the trip meant the Tips played a skater short in Saturday’s contest.

Meanwhile, the Rockets were hitting their stride.

Kelowna spent Friday shaking off the rust from having had a full week off prior to the contest. The Rockets were back up to full speed

by Saturday’s game.

The net result was perhaps inevitable. Everett hung tough through one period, scoring the game’s first goal and heading into the first intermission tied 1-1. But a stretch of three goals in five minutes early in the second period essentially signaled the end for the Tips.

“I think the three weeks of combined travel took its toll in the last game,” Low said.

“It just kind of got away from us,” Low added. “I can’t really pinpoint one certain area, we just didn’t play our best game. And not making any excuses, but there were a lot of tired bodies in that locker room.

We fought pretty hard up there with a lot of guys battling through sickness.”

Make no mistake, the Tips acknowledge Kelowna’s qualities.

“They have a very skilled forward group,” Low said.

“You’re always careful with the puck and puck management, but you have to be especially careful against those guys. If pucks get turned over they’re going to burn you the other way, and their defensive group moves the puck as soon as they get it. They’re just a great team.”

But the Tips won’t be in awe when the teams meet for the final time in the regular season on March 3 in Everett.

“I think we can play with a team like that,” Bajkov said. “Yeah, they’re a good team, but we’ve got a good team in our locker room as well. If we compete just as hard I think we have a good chance.”

Injury update While both Wharrie and Wegleitner were hurt on the road trip, both escaped serious injury. Wharrie had to be helped from the ice following a knee-on-knee hit last Tuesday at Prince George, but he’s expected to be back on his skates soon and is not listed on this week’s injury report. Wegleitner, who was knocked out of Friday’s game following a big hit from Kelowna defenseman Josh Morrissey, practiced in full Tuesday. Winger Logan Aasman remains out indefinitely because of concussion symptoms, but Everett general manager Garry Davidson said during Friday’s television broadcast that Aasman may be able to resume skating soon.

Serena advances, Venus out at Aussie Open Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia — Madison Keys got one Williams sister out of the way on Wednesday at the Australian Open. On Thursday, the 19-yearold American will try to make it two, and this sibling might be a little tougher, even with a cold.

Keys overcame a left thigh injury to beat No. 18-ranked Venus Williams 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 and advance to the last four against top-ranked and 18-time major winner Serena, who had little trouble beating last year’s finalist, Dominika Cibulkova, 6-2, 6-2.

Serena Williams made the win look easy despite suffering from a bad cold the past few days. She spoke with a hoarse voice in her post-match interview on court.

“I have to keep my answers short because I keep coughing,” Williams said.

Keys received treatment on her leg after dropping serve in the second set to give Venus Williams a 4-1 lead.

After the medical timeout, she broke Williams’ serve twice to level the set at 4-all, but Williams then captured the next two games to send it to a decider.

On the men’s side, defending champion Stan Wawrinka advanced to the semifinals with a 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (6) win over U.S. Open runner-up Kei Nishikori.

There are multiple ways to serve up guacamole for the Super Bowl, including shrimp scampi guacamole.

10 fresh takes on Super Bowl guacamole

By Alison Ladman Associated Press

W

hether or not you like avocados, you really have to admire the way their marketers have totally owned the Super Bowl.

For no particular reason other than force of will, avocados — and the guacamole they produce — are indelibly linked with this major American sporting event. A Super Bowl party without guacamole — and its trusty sidekick chicken wings — in many circles is considered downright unpatriotic.

So to help you better embrace the official fruit of the Super Bowl, we came up with 10 creative ways to make a better guacamole. We suggest starting with our basic recipe — which is pretty darn good just as is — then adding in whichever combination of flavors best gets you in the mood for the big game.

10 fresh ideas for guacamole Fast and dirty: In place of the tomato, cilantro and red onion, stir in 1⁄2 cup of your favorite jarred salsa, 1 tablespoon olive brine, and 2 tablespoons chopped green olives.

Mango-balsamic: In place of the tomato, stir in the diced flesh of 1 mango. Use scallions in place of the red onion and 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar in place of the lime juice.

Chipotle-corn: Stir in 1 minced chipotle and 1 tablespoon adobo sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo. Add 1⁄2 cup corn kernels.

Tzatziki: Use 1 cup finely diced seedless cucumber in place of the tomato and red onion. Use dill in place of the cilantro. Stir in 2 minced cloves garlic.

Roasted garlic and poblano: Roast a head of garlic wrapped in foil with a little olive oil until tender and brown, about 30 minutes at 400 degrees. Roast a poblano pepper under the broiler, turning frequently, until the skin chars.

Carefully remove the charred skin from the pepper, then chop the flesh. Squeeze the garlic pulp from the skin and mash. Mix both into the guacamole, omitting the onion.

Minted cotija: Follow the basic method for guacamole, but use 2 avocados, the lime juice, 3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, and 2⁄3 cup crumbled cotija cheese. Season with salt and black pepper.

Maple-bacon: Follow the basic method for guacamole, but use 3 avocados, 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 2 chopped scallions, and 1⁄2 cup chopped cooked bacon. Season heavily with black pepper.

Ginger-hoisin: Add 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger and 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce.

Citrus tabbouleh: Replace the tomato and onion with 3⁄4 cup purchased tabbouleh and the zests of 1 lemon, 1 lime and 1 orange.

Shrimp scampi: Use lemon juice in place of the lime juice and basil in place of the cilantro. Omit the cumin, tomato and onion. Stir in 1 cup chopped cooked shrimp, 2 cloves minced garlic and 1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese.

Great seafood stews to freeze and enjoy quickly

W

e all know how good fish is for our overall health. But when you’re trying to pull some marginal fish eaters over to your way of thinking, a good attitude is only half the battle.

The truly successful nudge comes via good cooking. This time of year, a healthy-but-flavorful fish stew might be just the ticket.

But there’s that cooking thing. Not all that difficult on the culinary arts spectrum, but for a week-night meal, some of us might consider it messy and time-consuming.

However, if all you have to do was grab a batch of a flavorful stew base from your freezer,

Well, I’ve revisited some of my favorite fish stews and found that quite a few qualify

for a freezer-to-table approach.

The most important consideration when assembling these fish stews is really fresh fish.

Fresh doesn’t have to mean never frozen. Because seafood can be so expertly frozen these days — usually right there on the fishing vessel within hours of catching — slabs of halibut in the frozen fish case is not my concern. But I do ask when it was thawed. If the answer is either “I don’t know” or “two days ago,” I move on.

When a fish monger is willing to sell me frozen fillets, steaks, scallops, and shrimp, I jump at the opportunity because then I’m in control.

So here are three approaches

to seafood stews. If I had to choose only one to make for the freezer, it would be the first, my cioppino. It’s zesty and delicious and can be used as a backdrop to all kinds of seafood offerings. In all three cases, consider them as jumping off points from which to add whatever selection of fish you choose.

Stews From Page D1 5 cans (14½ ounces each) diced tomatoes (see note below) 11⁄2 cups dry white wine, such as Pinot Blanc, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, or an Oregon Chardonnay 2 teaspoons each, dried (or 1 tablespoon each fresh): basil, thyme, marjoram, and oregano 1 bay leaf 1 ⁄2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 ⁄2 cup chopped fresh parsley 3 ⁄4 pound red snapper 3 ⁄4 pound halibut 1 ⁄2 pound scallops 1 pound steamer clams (optional, but very tasty) 2 cups shrimp meat Salt and additional pepper to taste There are as many renditions of this classic San Francisco fish stew specialty as there are folks who’ve left their hearts there.

But I have found this one to be a delicious-yet-simple approach.

And I now use it as a back drop for a variety seafood beyond what I mention here. So feel free to do likewise.

To make the stew base, which makes about 12 cups, heat the oil in a large, heavy pot and saute the onions and garlic over medium-high heat until the onions are tender. Stir in the salsa, tomatoes, wine, herbs, black pepper, and parsley and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened enough to have enough substance to coat a spoon. Remove from the heat, adjust seasonings and if not using immediately, cool and refrigerate until needed, up to

several days, or freeze in desired size freezer containers.

To finish the stew, (note: use the recommended fish above or your own combination) cut the snapper and halibut into 1⁄2- to 1-inch chunks; set aside in refrigerator until needed. Bring the stew base to a boil, then add the fish chunks and simmer until just barely cooked through. Add the scallops and clams and cook just until the clams open (discard any clams that don’t open). Add the shrimp and remove the pot from the burner; the shrimp will heat through nicely and not become tough. Add salt and additional fresh ground black pepper to taste.

Note: I use one can of diced

Curried leek and seafood stew 11⁄2 pounds leeks (white and pale green portions), cut into 1-inch chunks to measure 6 cups 3 cups homemade or canned chicken broth 1 cup peeled, cored, and diced apples

2 cups diced yellow onions 1 cup diced potato (a red, white, or Yukon gold variety would be best) 1 large tomato, peeled, seeded, and diced to measure about 3/4 cup (or use good-quality canned diced tomato) 1 ⁄2 cup diced carrot 1 teaspoon dried basil 1 ⁄2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste 1 ⁄2 teaspoon curry powder 1 ⁄4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, or more to taste 2 pounds fresh or frozen seafood, such as a mixture of bay scallops, crab meat, halibut, snapper, clams, cod, and/or shrimp To make the stew base, which makes about 9 cups, combine the leeks, chicken broth, apples, yellow onionse pot.

Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes and leeks are tender. Remove the soup from the heat and cool slightly, then blend the mixture in several batches in a blender or food processor until very smooth. Cool and freeze in desired size freezer containers.

To finish the stew, bring the stew base to a gentle boil. Add the seafood and simmer just until the fish is cooked through.

Makes about 6 servings.

t’s hard to remember a time when Pepper Bridge Winery wasn’t around and among the Walla Walla Valley’s top wineries.

Yet Norm McKibben launched the operation in 1998, making it the 18th winery in the valley. He quickly brought in partner Ray Goff, a veteran of Anheuser-Busch, and they hired Swiss-born winemaker Jean-François Pellet, who later also became a partner.

Pellet’s wines quickly gained acclaim as among the best and most collectible in Washington and beyond.

The winery’s (and vineyard’s) name dates back to the days of the Oregon Trail, when a key crossing over the Walla Walla River was owned by the Pepper family. Stagecoaches and covered wagons crossed a bridge there. Today, Peppers Bridge Road runs north-south near the Washington-Oregon border south of Walla Walla.

After Pepper Bridge was established, a second label was created called Amavi, which has since evolved into its own winery, with all the wines made by Pellet.

In addition to the estate Pepper Bridge Vineyard, McKibben also is a partner in Seven Hills Vineyard with the owners of Leonetti Cellar and L’Ecole No. 41.

Pepper Bridge and Amavi have separate tasting rooms in the southern Walla Walla Valley, and they share a tasting room in Woodinville, not far from Chateau Ste. Michelle.

Search for the Pepper Bridge and Amavi wines in gourmet groceries and highend wine shops.

Here are a few examples we’ve tasted in recent weeks.

Pepper Bridge Winery 2012 Seven Hills Vineyard, Walla Walla Valley, $60: This Meritage-style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot spent 17 months in French oak.

Aromas of raspberry, cassis, French vanilla and maple lead to flavors of red fruit and cinnamon toast, all backed by lively acidity, age-worthy tannins and a finish of white pepper.

The toasts can be prepped up to a week ahead and stored in an airtight container. The egg mixture can be made up to 2 days ahead, then refrigerated. If refrigerated, let the egg mixture come to room temperature before piping.

Heat the oven to 250 degrees.

Mist a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray.

To prepare the melba toasts, slice the baguette into thin rounds. Arrange the rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, then mist the tops with cooking spray. Bake for 25 to 30, or until dried and crisp.

Meanwhile, to prepare the deviled egg topping, place the eggs in a large saucepan. Add enough cool water to cover by 2 inches. Set the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a

A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Merlot leads with aromas of blackberry taffy, cherry juice and black currant syrup followed by dark, alluring flavors focused on blueberries and chocolatecovered pomegranate with ageworthy tannins and a finish of cherry. (14.4 percent) Pepper Bridge Winery 2013 Sauvignon Blanc, Walla Walla Valley, $35: For 15 years, Pepper Bridge has focused on reds — until this Sauvignon Blanc. Aromas of pineapple, yellow grapefruit, Granny Smith apple and lemongrass turn into clean flavors of dried papaya with yellow grapefruit, backed by lime peel.

(13.9 percent) Pepper Bridge Winery 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, $60: Tones of roasted coffee and cola with plum, Marionberry dark blueberry and Hostess Cherry Pie lead to a rich, entry, solid tannins and bright acidity, which set the stage for a finish of chocolate-covered pomegranate. (14.4 percent) Amavi Cellars 2012 Syrah, Walla Walla Valley, $32: Les Collines Vineyard in the foothills of the Blue Mountains serves as the lifeblood for a number of wineries in the region, but it’s also a large estate planting for this sister brand of Pepper Bridge Winery. It forms nearly two-thirds of this Syrah, which is brimming with tones of blackberry, blueberry and Western serviceberry, backed by notes of vanilla, tar and charred cherry wood. The remarkable amount of acidity makes this more food-friendly than many Syrahs. (14.6 percent) Amavi Cellars 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, $32: While Amavi does venture beyond Bordeaux varieties, the work done with Cabernet Sauvignon remains exemplary. 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) Eric Degerman and Andy Perdue run Great Northwest Wine, a news and information company.

GRANDPARENTING

Grandchildren in the age of terror

By Tom and Dee Hardie and Key Kidder Dear Grandparenting: I have grandchildren living in Spain and grandchildren living in Texas. I am on the phone with them pretty regularly. I have not asked my grandchildren in Europe about the their reaction to the recent terrorist attacks. Their parents are downplaying it, like everything is normal.

My grandson Jake in Texas brought it up the last time we spoke. As you know, Texas has a big gun culture. Jake wants me to visit. “You’ll be safe with us,” he said. “We got more guns than those terrorists.” Jake is six years old.

What he said stayed with me after I hung up. He might be fearless but other grandchildren aren’t so lucky.

The terrible thing about terrorism is how it plays on your mind, all the “what if’s?” Imagine the fear if you’re small and powerless. What’s to be done to protect young grandchildren from running scared?

— Virginia Murphy, Boston Dear Virginia: Grandparents who lived through the Cold War and the Cuban missile crisis grew up amidst worries of an atomic Armageddon. Grandchildren today

live in a world where beheadings are commonplace and preachers of hate issue edicts of death and destruction against western nations.

Terror mutates but doesn’t disappear, and thanks to social media and extensive terrorist coverage on major news outlets, grandchildren have a fine front row seat. The bomb was an abstract possibility, but terrorists are right here, right now, and if we had to guess, it seems likely they will stick around.

You are the ninth grandparent to contact us since the January 7 massacre in Paris. Your concerns reflect those of others with young grandchildren. According to the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), this is no piddling matter.

The guidance of caring adults, says NASP, “will make the difference between (small children) being overwhelmed and developing lifelong emotional and psychological coping skills.”

Can you immunize grandchildren against knowing about terrorists? Probably not — sooner or later, they will have to come to grips the facts. As distressing as it may be to hear a six-year old talk of finding safety in firearms, it is

your grandson’s way of expressing a sense of control over the situation.

Guns, says NASP, are a normal way for children to express an awareness of such events.

Many small children don’t verbalize their fears. How many grandparents are informed of the warning signs? Knowing what to say, and how to say it, is a skill that grandparents and family guardians should acquire ASAP. NASP’s website is not a bad place to start. Here’s the link: http://www. nasponline.org/resources/crisis_ safety/children_war_general.aspx Grand remark of the week Slow Poke from Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, called to check in on his three-month old grandson.

Granddaughter Toby, 7, answered the phone.

“So how’s your little brother coming along?” he asked.

“Well, he’s still not walking,” said Toby. “Probably too lazy.”

The Daily Herald

Husband wishes his wife would spice it up Dear Abby: My wife and I have been married for quite a while, and our intimate life became monotonous and unimaginative a long time ago. Over the years I have suggested we try things like role-playing and other non-extreme variations during intimate times. My suggestions were met with rolling eyes and retorts like, “I’m your wife, not a hooker.” I finally gave up and try to be content with what we have together.

Then one evening she surprised me and did one of the things I had suggested. It was very nice and she seemed to like it, too. I didn’t know what to say to her. “Thank you” somehow seemed condescending. We have done nothing like it since.

I doubt if the answer is in the etiquette books.

What should I have said to her to let her know how much I appreciated her loosening up and hope it will perhaps make her more comfortable spicing things up in the future?

— Etiquette Advocate In San Deigo Dear Advocate: Praise is a powerful incentive.

Flowers would have been nice. But since you didn’t send any, try this: Invite your wife out to dinner at a nice restaurant. Tell her how surprised and delighted you were with the special surprise she gave you. A small gift to commemorate the occasion couldn’t hurt either.

A satisfying sex life is all about communication, and if my mail is any indicator, if more wives were uninhibited in the bedroom, there would be a lot less business for the “professionals.”

Dear Abby: I have been dating a wonderful man for two years and am in hopes of getting a proposal soon. We are both committed to staying pure before marriage and have not been intimate.

My question to you is, do I have to tell him, now or ever, that I have had breast implants? I did it several years ago, and it greatly improved my selfesteem. I’m glad I did it.

Since he has never felt any breasts, if I tell him, my fear is he will get hung up on the thought, “I wonder what REAL breasts feel like.” On the other hand, if I don’t tell him and sometime in the future he finds out, he may be like, “I can’t believe you kept that from me.” What would you advise? — Reticent In Kentucky Dear Reticent: Many women have breast enhancement surgery so their figures will be more balanced. For the reason you have mentioned, you should tell your boyfriend.

It should make no difference to him. However, if it does, it’s better that you know now before you spend any more time on someone who measures the worth of a woman by how “real” her breasts are.

P.S. If he wants to know what “real” breasts feel like, tell him to go hug his mother.

“It’s the dungeon for you, Gisburne,” the Sheriff fumed.

“What would you have me do, my lord?” Gisburne pleaded.

East-West need five defensive tricks, so West must assume that East has one good card. But South needs the ace of clubs (and probably strong hearts) to have an opening bid, so West must lead a spade at Trick Two. Since he has the ace

You double, and your partner bids two clubs. What do you say?

ANSWER: Though your club support isn’t up to par, pass.

If you bid a suit but double first, you will promise extra strength. But note that some pairs embrace “equal-level conversion” in which a suit bid at the same level doesn’t promise extras. So some players might bid two diamonds.

‘Empire’ exposing homophobia

Hancock and Corea 1st tour in 37 years to start in Seattle

PASADENA, Calif.

— The creator of Fox’s prime-time soap “Empire” said he wants to “blow the lid off homophobia” in the African-American community with a depiction of the show’s lead character’s hostile relationship with his gay son.

Lee Daniels, who was also behind the movies “Lee Daniels’ The Butler” and “Precious,” said that his own father’s hostility toward gays frightened him and he knows the same attitudes are being passed on from one generation to another in households around the world.

“What we’re trying to do is to give people the opportunity to see that

NEW YORK— One sings about being “Happy,” the other croons about being sad: Pharrell and Sam Smith will perform at the Grammys next month.

The Recording Academy announced Wednesday that Usher and Miranda Lambert also will take the stage at the Feb. 8 show in Los Angeles.

Smith, Pharrell and Beyonce are the Grammy leaders with six nominations apiece. They will battle Beck and Ed Sheeran for the top prize, album of the year.

what they’re doing is painful,” Daniels said at a television conference on Saturday.

“Empire,” the story of a strong-willed music family whose patriarch, Lucious Lyon, is portrayed by actor Terrence Howard, has gotten off to a strong start this month at the ratings-challenged Fox network. The series had the unusual feat of growing in viewership from its premiere week to its second, compelling Fox to quickly give the goahead to a second season.

During the show’s first episode, Lyon learns he has a fatal disease and is battling with his just-released-from-jail wife over which of their three sons will take over

their music empire. Lyon is openly hostile to his gay son Jamal. During a flashback, Lyon is shown stuffing Jamal into a garbage can when he sees the boy trying on his mother’s high heels.

“I’m glad that I can show the African-American community that this is what you’re doing to your son, this is what you’re doing to your nephew, this is what you’re doing to the kid down the street,” Howard said.

Daniels said that he believes if his father were alive today, he would have evolved in his thinking.

The show airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m.

Previous Chancellors include W.H. Auden, Adrienne Rich and John

NEW YORK — Jazz greats Chick Corea and Herbie Hancock share much in comChick Corea mon, but the last time they toured together was 37 years ago.

The two artists have now announced plans for a 2015 world tour of duo piano concerts, kicking off March 14 in Seattle.

Hancock said he’s “very excited” about the upcoming tour.

The two are like family, Corea said, “without the arguments” and with “compatible outlooks on life and music.”

Their only previous tour was in 1978, at a time when they were mostly playing electronic keyboards with their stadium-filling jazz-rock bands, Hancock’s Headhunters and Corea’s Return to Forever.

That tour — on which they played side-by-side acoustic grand pianos — resulted in two double-LP live recordings.
