Everett drivers’ tabs rise The additional $20 will show up on renewal notices and was enacted by the City Council to balance the budget.

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — People living within city limits soon will start paying an additional $20 fee when they get their new car tabs.

The fee will start showing up on renewal notices in March, city communications director Meghan Pembroke said.

The car tab fee ordinance was enacted by the Everett City Council in 2014 as part of a slate

of budget-balancing measures designed to bridge a growing deficit.

The car tab fee is collected through a mechanism called a Transportation Benefit District, governed by the City Council, which has the authority to levy taxes to pay for road work.

On Feb. 11, the council approved the year’s slate of street

overlay projects.

This year’s road repair budget includes $600,000 that the city estimates it will bring in from the new car tab fees in 2014. In subsequent years, the city estimates it will bring in $1.2 million per year.

The city has budgeted a total of See TABS, Page A2

Few options for car seats Recycling the various parts is labor-intensive and cost-prohibitive

KIMBERLY CHRISTENSEN / CONTRIBUTED PHOTO

Millions of child car seats are sold each year. With a shelf life of six to 10 years, most of them will end up in landfills. Local advocates hope to reverse that trend. Shown here are a pile of unwanted car seats collected by CoolMom of Seattle as part of a recycling drive at the 2010 Sustainable Ballard Festival. Events like these are becoming fewer and further between as recycling companies shy away from the labor-intensive and costly process of dealing with the components of increasingly high-tech car seats.

By Melissa Slager If you don’t want your expired child car seat to go to a landfill, a local retailer’s trade-in event is not your ticket to eco-friendly disposal.

While trade-ins are offered, recycling child car seats in Snohomish County is not easy.

“It’s long been an issue,” said Shawneri Guzman, who heads the Providence Regional Medical Center-sponsored Safe Kids Snohomish County program.

“Some places will say, ‘Yeah, we’ll take them,’ and then they’ll get inundated and put the brakes on it.”

Toys R Us and Babies R Us stores through Saturday are holding a trade-in promotion.

People are encouraged to drop off unwanted or expired child car seats, strollers and cribs to get a 25 percent off coupon for replacement gear at the store.

It’s a hassle-free way to get rid of a seat, but recycling is not in that seat’s future.

“They’re just taken off the market to make sure no one else uses them,” said Linda Connors, a spokesperson for Toys R Us’ parent company in New Jersey. “We

consulted with product safety organizations, and they agreed that disposal of these items is necessary.”

Recycling the disparate parts of a child car seat, especially the hard plastic shell, is a labor-intensive and expensive process.

Guzman has been trying to find a recycler willing to take Snohomish County seats. “We’re trying to build a relationship and get some sort of understanding of where we can send people in the county,” she said.

For now, though, unless you’re willing to travel to Spokane or Portland or shell out big bucks to ship your seat to Texas,

the garbage can remains the primary way to get rid of a child car seat.

Why do they expire?

Car seats are stamped with an expiration date, typically six to 10 years after manufacture. Safety experts say it’s no gimmick to get you to buy another seat.

“We use them every day, right?” said Guzman, who has taken extensive training to be a car seat technician for Safe Kids.

“Think about it — if you wore the same pair of jeans every day,

the seats’ nooks and crannies are totally biodegradeable.

Paine Field plan panned Those who oppose commercial flights tell the County Council that it’s moving too fast in deciding if a new terminal can be built.

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — People who oppose commercial passenger flights at Paine Field turned out in force Tuesday at the Snohomish County Council’s first public discussion of a lease proposal that could make their fear a reality.

If approved by county leaders, an option to lease would give New York-based Propeller Airports three years to design a two-gate passenger terminal and perform environmental studies.

After that, Propeller could sign a 30-year lease, with two optional 10-year extensions. The company would pay for building and operating the facility.

“This is an important decision that will affect us all for years,” said Victor Coupez, vice president of the Mukilteo-based opposition group Save Our Communities. “The taxpayers and voters deserve transparency and good governance. I urge you to perform due diligence and to find out just who you’re thinking about doing business with. There is no legal pressure to push this through. Slow down.”

County Executive John Lovick’s office forwarded the proposed option to lease to the County Council on Friday with a recommendation for approval. Federal Aviation Administration rules require the county to negotiate in good faith or risk losing millions of dollars in grants the airport relies on to keep running.

The County Council is scheduled to discuss the lease option again at its 10:30 a.m. meeting March 2. A vote also could take place then.

Opponents who spoke to the council Tuesday said that’s too soon. They included Mukilteo Mayor Jennifer Gregerson.

They’re asking for assurances that taxpayers won’t be held accountable if anything goes wrong with the project.

They asked the County Council to make sure the public recoups all costs for the facility, keeping in mind that the number of daily flights could eventually grow from the five envisioned now.

of Transportation.

Even without those additional sources of revenue, the city still has set aside $2.75 million from its own funds.

“We’re trying to ramp up our level of maintenance,” city engineer Ryan Sass said.

The overlay program is designed to maintain city streets before they completely degrade and need to be completely rebuilt, he said.

After several years of tight finances, the city is

able to increase regular maintenance, Sass said.

“This if the first year we’re trying to catch up,” Sass said. “It’s very hard to catch up if you’re ever behind that point.”

The largest single project on 2015’s list includes overlaying Airport Road between West Casino Road and Evergreen Way. Short segments of 100th Street Southwest off Airport Road and 112th Street SW off Evergreen also are in the area.

This project includes

sections of Airport Road that are owned by the county and state, which is why they are contributing funding to the project, Sass said.

Other street overlay projects on the list include Beverly Lane between Pecks Drive and Madison Street, Lake Street in the Pinehurst/Beverly Park neighborhood, Hardeson Road between Sievers-Duecy Boulevard and West Casino Road, a section of Larimer Road north of Wood Creek,

sections of 102nd Street SE and 110th Street SE in the Silver Lake neighborhood, and three sections of Evergreen Way (from 46th to 52nd Streets SE, from 75th Street SE to Highway 526, and from Fourth Ave. wW to 100th Street SW).

The job will be put out to bid in February or March, Sass said, with the work scheduled to start in the summer.

mitigating not only the initial impacts, but increasing impacts for up to 50 years. I don’t see that protection in the proposed lease.”

Airport officials and a county attorney said Tuesday they have built safeguards into the agreement to cover foreseeable costs and what would happen should the project fail.

Opponents also called attention to Propeller’s limited track record.

Founded in 2008, the company has been trying to develop an alternative to Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta, one of the busiest in the world.

Propeller first approached Snohomish County in June.

Serious negotiations began in October.

The proposed Paine Field lease involves land between the airport’s administrative offices and control tower.

The area covers about 466,000 square feet.

Boeing has been leasing the space to park 747s awaiting delivery.

“That was always seen as a temporary arrangement,” airport director Arif Ghouse said. “Boeing has no desire, that they’ve expressed to us, that they want to have a long-term lease on that land.”

Propeller’s lease option, if approved, would cost the company $3,575 per month. That’s one-tenth of the $35,755 monthly lease if the deal advances. The county also would require a one-time traffic-impact fee of $333,000.

Under the terms, the

county would receive 2.5 percent of gross revenue during the first four years of terminal operation in addition to the monthly lease.

The amount would double to 5 percent for the remainder of the lease.

A terminal building could be up to 30,000 square feet. A previous county study estimated construction costs at $10 million. When council members asked if Propeller could, in theory, plop down a double-wide trailer, Ghouse said the company would have to construct a “world-class building.”

“We have some concerns about the design quality and the longevity of the building,” Councilman Terry Ryan said. ....

Ryan represents a potential tie-breaker in a future

vote on Paine Field commercial passenger flights.

The other four members are split for and against.

The city of Mukilteo and Save Our Communities have taken the Federal Aviation Administration to federal court over the issue, demanding further environmental impact studies. The case was stayed last year but would be reactivated when a viable terminal proposal moves forward.

On the other side of the issue are Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson and many of the region’s business leaders, who have talked up the economic benefit that regularly scheduled passenger flights could bring.

Suspect allegedly admitted to shooting

that he himself was “a junkie and his kids deserved better,” an Everett police detective wrote in an affidavit released Tuesday.

When the dispatcher asked why Fleischer shot the people, he reportedly replied, “I’m just taking (sic) a couple pieces of (expletive) that hurt and kill people,” court papers said.

Fleischer surrendered to police a short time later at Forest Park, a couple of miles from where police

Herald Writer

EVERETT — The man arrested in connection with a double homicide Friday in Everett reportedly admitted to an emergency dispatcher that he was behind the violence.

Tye Patrick Fleischer called 911 minutes after a neighbor on 75th Street reported hearing gunfire.

Fleischer, 37, told the dispatcher

found the three victims. Officers took a loaded semiautomatic handgun from the passenger seat of Fleischer’s van.

Killed were Kevin Odneal, 50, and Irene Halverson, 42, according to court papers. Another woman, 34, was struck in the pelvis and is expected to survive.

Friday night’s shooting happened outside the house where Odneal lived with his mother.

There have been two other

homicides at the house since 2008.

Fleischer made a brief appearance Tuesday in Everett District Court. He was being held in the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of two counts of second-degree murder and one count of first-degree assault.

Judge Anthony Howard agreed that Fleischer should not be allowed to post any bail.

Fleischer is a convicted felon

with a history of drug use.

After his arrest he declined to speak with Everett detectives.

An investigator reviewed the calls Fleischer made to 911. He allegedly confessed that he shot two people at “Faulty Kevin’s” house on 75th Street. He wouldn’t tell the dispatcher his name, but he threatened to kill himself and said police would find his See SHOOT, Page A5

Panel mulls bill to trim vaccine exemptions

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — Personal or philosophical opposition to vaccines would not be an authorized exemption for the parents of school-age children under a measure that received a public hearing before a House committee Tuesday.

More than a dozen parents spoke against the bill, sponsored

by Rep. June Robinson, D-Everett, that would strip the personal beliefs exemption from the

state’s immunization law.

Nearly every parent who spoke had the same message: They must be allowed to choose the course of care for their children free of government coercion.

“Please leave the health care decisions to families,” Ziggy Siegfried of Spokane told members of the House Health Care and Wellness Committee.

Josh Swenson of Tumwater said House Bill 2009 “takes away my rights as a parent to protect my children. You cannot force me to hurt my child.”

Ralph Munro, a former secretary of state, backed the bill.

He told lawmakers he helped write the state’s first vaccination law in 1979 “but it has not been enough.”

“Many people today do not realize how dangerous measles can be,” he said. “Every unvaccinated child is a health risk to our community.”

The state Department of Health requires children attending public schools to be vaccinated against infectious diseases such as diphtheria,

tetanus, measles, mumps, polio and whooping cough. They also can enroll if they show proof of acquired immunity to the diseases.

National immunization data from 2013 show 71 percent of Washington children between 19 and 35 months old have received all of their shots on time.

Under state law, parents or guardians can obtain a vaccination exemption for medical, personal or religious beliefs.

Everett Clinic, foundation give $500K to YMCA

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

front porch

EVERETT — The YMCA of Snohomish County has received a $500,000 donation from the Everett Clinic and Everett Clinic Foundation to support the organization’s capital campaign.

The YMCA is embarking on a multimillion-dollar campaign to fund the replacement of its aging headquarters facility in downtown Everett.

Parts of the building at 1420 Hewitt Ave. are nearly 100 years old, and the upper stories are mostly used for storage.

“The clinic has supported multiple not-for-profit service

organizations in Snohomish County, including the YMCA in the past,” said Dr. Harold Dash, board president of the Everett Clinic.

“But certainly we’ve not made a contribution of this amount in the past,” Dash said.

The clinic plans to contribute $350,000 over five years toward the YMCA’s campaign, while the foundation is giving $150,000.

In 2014, the clinic and the foundation together donated $742,098 to charities and other service organizations, clinic spokeswoman Michele Graves said.

Dash said that even if the clinic provides excellent medical care, the larger community’s well-being also is served by a wider network of social service organizations.

The YMCA has a variety of programs, from child care to adolescent programs, and even a cancer support group that Dash said he only learned about in the past couple of years.

“It’s really about community,” Dash said. “This will really be a positive investment for the people of Snohomish County.”

The project is estimated to cost up to $25 million, depending on location and details of the building plan. The YMCA would make up the difference in cost with a combination of its own resources and low-interest borrowing.

The YMCA also plans to break ground this summer on a new $18 million facility in Stanwood to serve north Snohomish County.

SNOHOMISH — Two intentionally set fires destroyed both dugouts along with equipment used by the Glacier Peak High School girls fast pitch softball team.

The first fire occurred Friday; the second was discovered early Monday morning. School was not in session either day.

The Snohomish County fire marshal quickly determined that the fires were arson. The Northwest Insurance Council and Arson Alarm Foundation are offering a cash reward for tips that result in the arrest or conviction of whoever set the fires. They earmark $10,000 annually for such tips.

Damage to the softball complex was estimated at between $30,000 and $40,000, said Rebecca Hover, a Snohomish County spokeswoman.

Insurance will pick up most of the tab, including for the dugouts, fencing, netting and equipment, said Kristin Foley, a Snohomish School District spokeswoman.

The Glacier Peak girls fast pitch booster club is trying to raise money for other costs, such as the deductible. Contributions can be made at Heritage Bank, 1504 132nd St. SE, Mill Creek.

“We are pulling together a list for everything that needs to be replaced,” Foley said.

Foley said she expects the field will be ready by the time the team plays its first game in March.

Other schools, including crossdistrict rival Snohomish High School, have offered to help.

“That is always so heart warming,” Foley said.

Many parents and players visited the campus over the three-day weekend to survey the damage. The dugouts, built by volunteers, “were totally gutted,” said Patricia Nicksic, the booster club treasurer.

A small tractor for grooming the field was destroyed as was other equipment kept in a storage shed.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the fire marshal’s office at 425388-3557 or the Arson Hotline at 800-55-ARSON.

Washington is one of 20 states that allow for an exemption on philosophical grounds, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures Robinson’s bill would remove that personal belief allowance, which she said makes it too easy for parents to not think about the effect that they’re having on the community.

The committee could vote on the bill as early as Wednesday.

Robinson, who works for King County Public Health, acted in response to the measles outbreak that has sickened more than 100 people across the U.S., including in Washington, and in Mexico. No deaths have been reported.

The bill has 27 sponsors and is backed by Gov. Jay Inslee and the Washington State Medical Association.

“Immunizations are safe and effective and save millions of lives,” Dr. Kathy Lofy, the state’s chief health officer, said at the hearing.

Yet, she said, there are schools where the exemption rate is 30 percent to 40 percent and that makes them “tinder boxes” for the potential spread of infectious diseases.

Several parents questioned the safety of vaccines, sharing stories of how their children received vaccinations against one disease only to fall ill from another disease.

“Yes, disease has risk but every vaccine has risks, too,” said Audrey Adams, of Renton.

Following the hearing, Robinson said the testimony of parents didn’t lessen her resolve. She said she is confident the bill will move forward without changes.

“Most parents want to do the right thing. Most parents immunize their children,” she said. Many of the issues parents talked about in the hearing she said she thought would qualify under the law’s medical exemption.

Court papers show that Fleischer is a father who has battled a methamphetamine addiction for several years. He was convicted in 2012 of drug possession after he was found with meth during a traffic stop.

Fleischer called two of his friends before he called 911, court papers said. Both urged him to turn himself in and one told police Fleischer admitted to shooting someone.

A man told police he witnessed the gunfire. He’d just dropped Halverson off near Odneal’s house and was waiting in his car nearby.

Detectives were last at Odneal’s house in December when they were investigating an illegal chop shop business there.

In May 2011, a robbery at the home turned deadly.

The man who was attacked was not charged. Police said he was acting in self defense.

In 2008, a 38-year-old man was shot and killed at the home. In that case, investigators believe three men, including Odneal, were arguing about drugs and a car. The argument spilled outside, where the man was shot.

The shooter pleaded guilty to first-degree manslaughter and was sentenced to 13 years in prison.

March 1, 1925-February 13, 2015 Barbara Riggin passed away peacefully on Friday evening, February 13, 2015 surrounded by her children.

She was born in Hanover, Montana on March 1, 1925.

Her dad called her “Scamp” and she lived up to her nickname every day of her life. She was smar t, independent, feisty when needed, very loving and had a great sense of humor.

At a g e 17 s h e c a m e to Seattle to attend the University of Washington, majoring in English. Two years later Barbara met Bill Riggin on a blind date. Bill soon realized he was thoroughly smitten, so he married her, something his family swore he would never do.

T h e y h a d fo u r c h i l d r e n together and were married for nearly 50 years before being parted by his passing in 1991. Barbara was also preceded in death by her son, Ted Riggin in 1976.

She was one of a dwindling number of COBOL programmers and although retired for many years she was approached by many companies to update their software before the millennium.

Fortunately it didn’t so that she could go on to enjoy her great grandchildren Jack, Delaney and Maizie Kendall and Zoey Rice.

She will be sorely missed by her loving grandchildren Jodi Kendall, Jaime Rice, Casey Riggin, Kristi Riggin, Ted Pinker ton and Maddy Pinkerton. But missed most of all by her children, Susie Hubka, Jenny Pinkerton and Doug Riggin.

Barb square danced, b ow l e d a n d l ove d c a rd s , especially bridge. Her greatest joy was her family which she expressed best in a letter written to her children after Ted’s death: “We were alive and because of him I think we are more c a r i n g , m o r e l ov i n g , a n d m o r e awa r e o f t h e va l u e each person has in our lives.

We celebrate our living family ever y day because they are so precious and because they cannot be replaced. And we do not forget those who have left us”. Barbara will never be forgotten by those lef t behind.

Theodore Clinton West

May 17, 1919 – February 9, 2015 “... it has always seemed to me that books are the supreme decorations of a room.”

-Patrick O’Brian, Testimonies

Ted, a great fan of Patrick

O’Brian novels, lived in the realm of the arts and literature. In Ted’s stor y, each subject, per son and idea caused great interest and, when he had questions, the pursuit of answers. He amassed books to fuel his insatiable literary habit, and surrounded himself with a good read in every room of the house.

His own Navy story tells of his time in WWII as a hospital corpsman who traveled to Guadalcanal in a Liberty ship troop transport. His obs e r v a t i o n s a n d d r aw i n g s claim a shelf for his own militar y histor y. His recollections are recorded in a Snohomish 2010 collection of WWII survivors’ stories, War and Sacrifice.

Ted’s professional history is a story of a hitchhiking undergraduate student who persevered to attain his PhD in Pharmacology from the University of Washington, where he continued in research and teaching to lead future pharmacology, pharmacy and medical students to achieve their dreams and goals. His groundbreaking medical education teaching ideas prepared him to move on from the University of Washington to the Medical School at the University of California Davis where his medical education skills were put to work to streamline the medical school curriculum. With approximately 70 known publications in his resume, Ted retired in 1986 as an accomplished and loved teacher and mentor.

Te d ’ s f a m i l y j o u r n a l i s quite extensive and filled with adventure. He and his wife, Juliann, raised three c h i l d r e n ( D ave , D o n a n d Ly n n e ) i n S e a t t l e b e fo r e moving to California. Ted delighted in four grandchildren: Anna, Karl, and Peter (parents Mark and Lynne Hereth), and Tyler (parents Don and Donna West), as well as nine great grandchildren: Chloe, Fenna, Eissen, Jack, Logan, Dylan, Morgan, Landon, and McRae. Ted’s journal entries recount many family visits, trips across country, kayaking, camping, singing, hiking, nostalgic farm adventures, and a retirement return to the Northwest where he and Juliann settled in Snohomish. Ted maintained his connections w i t h h i s fa m i l y. H e k n ew when a grandchild needed encouragement and tenderly offered it. Though not affiliated with a specific church, he volunteered to compile and edit the Zion Lutheran Church Centennial book. For many years Ted, under the guise of going to Zion Lutheran School to help with reading in second grade, took his harmonica along and weekly entertained both the children and the class parrot.

“I have often observed that … noise and activity go with good-fellowship and heightened spirits.”

-Patrick O’Brian, The Letter of Marque Finally, Ted’s personal story was the secret to his longevity. He very deliberately adjusted the course of his ship and set sail for new adventures and relationships.

Fo l l ow i n g t h e l o s s o f h i s wife, Ted began his eventual two-volume autobiography featuring the many people and events of his life. At the close of the first volume Ted then dedicated much of his t i m e t o m u s i c i n te r e s t s .

Both the Stilly Singers and Singing Strings offered him two days a week of music and good company. Ted then learned of the Everett Norwegian Male Chorus, and determined that since his birthday was the same day as the Nor wegian Indepen-

dence Day (Syttende Mai) he was destined to become a member of the Sons of Norway. With great enthusiasm, he joined the brethren and was also adopted by this talented and jovial group. In his nearly one century of living, these relationships and camaraderie gave him pure joy and purpose. Ted was a man of great intellect and unbounded curiosity of science and lov e of ar t and music; but most of all, he loved people, and they felt it.

Ted’s family will have a private graveside service at the GAR cemeter y in Snohomish. Arrangements through Bauer Funeral Chapel, Snohomish. On July 12, at 2:00 p.m., a celebration of Ted’s life will be held at the Thomas Family Farm located at the intersection of Highway 9 and Marsh Road. Ted’s friends and family are invited.

Immigration program halted

Texas court ruling forces Obama to suspend directives

By Franco Ordonez McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — The White House will suspend plans to begin giving more than 4 million immigrants here illegally work permits as it pursues an appeal of a Texas federal judge’s ruling that temporarily blocks President Barack Obama’s executive action on immigration.

The ruling late Monday by U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen throws millions of immigrants into limbo. The injunction allows a coalition of 26 states more time to pursue a lawsuit to permanently stop Obama’s Nov. 20 executive order, which would shield from deportation more than 4 million immigrants living in the United States illegally.

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services had been expected to begin accepting applications Wednesday for a part of the program that would defer deportation for an estimated 270,000 immigrants brought to the country as children. Other parts of the program were set to begin in May, but Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said Tuesday afternoon that the administration had no choice but to conform to the ruling and wouldn’t be accepting applications.

“We must comply,” Johnson said in a statement.

Many Republican leaders issued news releases to praise the ruling. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, said the decision underscored the contention of many that the president didn’t have the authority to unilaterally change immigration laws.

Hanen based his temporary injunction on his findings that at least one plaintiff, Texas, “stands to suffer direct damage from the implementation” of Obama’s executive action, which he said “mandates that

states bear the burdens of costs” of providing services to those in the country illegally.

He said the government had failed to follow the required procedures for enacting new regulations and added that once the executive action is implemented, there would be no effective way of retracting any benefits or services to the beneficiaries.

“This genie would be impossible to put back into the bottle,” Hanen wrote.

In December, then-Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott, who is now the governor, led a coalition of states that sued Obama, arguing that his unilateral executive action was unlawful and would cause the states “dramatic and irreparable injuries.”

The ruling may also give Republicans in Congress a convenient escape valve from a controversial decision to attach funding for the Department of

Homeland Security to a measure that defunds the executive action.

The bill passed the House of Representatives but has stalled in the Senate, threatening a shutdown of the department if legislation isn’t passed by Feb. 27. Polls find that Republicans in Congress would shoulder the blame for a shutdown if Congress were unable to enact a spending bill to keep the DHS running.

The Mexican government expressed regret about the court’s decisions. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the decision could create more confusion in the immigrant community and leave some susceptible to scams.

“These programs are a fair remedy for millions of families and have the potential to strengthen the significant contributions that Mexican immigrants make to the American economy and

society,” the government said in a statement.

Many immigrant advocates called the ruling extreme and expressed confidence it would be overturned on appeal. They urged immigrants to continue preparing their applications.

“Our message to people is don’t panic,” Debbie Smith, associate general counsel for the Service Employees International Union, said in a conference call with reporters.

“This is just a blip.”

The White House will appeal the case to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in New Orleans. Attorney General Eric Holder characterized the judge’s ruling, which doesn’t have a set time period, as an interim step.

Obama said Tuesday he disagreed with the federal court’s ruling. He said lower courts had often blocked or attempted to block policies that ultimately were given the green light.

potential for roofs to collapse under the weight of snow that has built up in recent weeks.

Numerous partial roof collapses have been reported but no serious injuries to date.

Two New Hampshire school districts remained closed a day after schools were evacuated over concerns of snow buildup

on roofs.

Roads were icy and slushy, making driving difficult in many places and causing at least eight traffic deaths. There were three deaths in Tennessee, including a mother and son in Williamson County who stopped to help people in a sport utility vehicle that

overturned when it was struck by a tractor-trailer.

Two people were killed in Virginia as nearly a foot of snow fell in some places. In North Carolina, a woman died in a two-car crash in the northeastern part of the state. Two people were killed in separate crashes in Maryland.

Robin Winter and her daughter, Melissa, made their way along a snowy sidewalk to a Metro station in Washington, D.C., so Mom could catch her flight home to St. Louis.

“If I would have decided to fly out Sunday night instead, you never know for sure if it’s gonna really happen until it really happens,” Robin Winter said.

More than 1,800 flights were canceled at many airports, from Nashville, Tennessee, to the nation’s capital.

More than 2,000 travelers spent the night at Charlotte Douglas International Airport as a winter storm roared through North Carolina.

Train carrying crude oil still burning Associated Press MOUNT CARBON, W.Va. — Oil cars were still burning more than a day after a train carrying 3 million gallons of North Dakota crude derailed in a West Virginia snowstorm, shooting fireballs into the sky.

Hundreds of families were evacuated after losing drinking water and electricity when 19 tank cars slammed into each other and caught fire, leaking oil into a Kanawha River tributary and burning a nearby house down to its foundation.

Defense chief vows to protect troops WASHINGTON — Ash Carter, sworn in Tuesday as President Barack Obama’s fourth secretary of defense, pledged to offer his most candid strategic advice and carefully consider decisions about sending troops into harm’s way.

Vice President Joe Biden issued the oath of office from the White House.

Biden said Carter faces “many tough missions,” ranging from battling Islamic State militants and strengthening the NATO alliance.

Carter pledged to help Obama make the best possible decisions about U.S. and global security; to protect the dignity, safety and well-being of service members, and to build a force for the future that embraces change.

Cold continues to envelop much of U.S. DURHAM, N.C. — A powerful winter storm dumped snow from Nashville to Nantucket, and Arctic-like temperatures gripped much of the U.S. Hundreds of thousands of people lost power in the South.

While some shivered, others bundled up and tried to make the best of a frustrating situation.

In New Orleans, if there was a theme for this year’s Mardi Gras costumes it was “Brrrrr.”

Despite the chilly temperatures, the crowds were thick.

Tutus were worn over jeans and many costumes, such as clowns or animals, were baggy enough to cover sweat shirts.

Erin Buran, of New Orleans, wore a white jacket and feathery angel wings.

“My angel wings have tequila in them,” she said, showing the mouthpiece of a hydration backpack covered by the wings.

ACROSS THE U.S.

One person — the homeowner — was treated for smoke inhalation, but no other injuries were reported, according to the train company, CSX. The two-person crew, an engineer and conductor, managed to decouple the train’s engines from the wreck behind it and walk away unharmed.

The train derailed near unincorporated Mount Carbon just after passing through Montgomery, a town of 1,946.

Fire crews had little choice Tuesday but to let the tanks burn themselves out. Each

carries up to 30,000 gallons of crude.

These rail shipments jumped from 9,500 carloads in 2008 to more than 435,000 in 2013, driven by a boom in the Bakken oil patch of North Dakota and Montana, where pipeline limitations force 70 percent of the crude to move by rail, according to American Fuel and Petrochemical Manufacturers.

Trains hauling Bakkenregion oil have been involved in major accidents in Virginia, North Dakota, Oklahoma and Alabama, and Canada, where

47 people were killed by an explosive derailment in 2013 in Lac-Megantic, Quebec.

Just Saturday — two days before the West Virginia wreck — 29 cars of a 100-car Canadian National Railway train carrying diluted bitumen crude derailed in a remote area 50 miles south of Timmins, Ontario, spilling oil and catching fire.

It’s not clear if weather was a factor in the Monday crash.

All but two of the 109 cars were tanks, and 26 of them left the tracks.

Teens must now be accompanied by adults at night in a Ocoee mall where youths mobbed a movie theater after they were barred from seeing the R-rated movie “Fifty Shades of Grey.”

West Oak Mall officials in the Orlando suburb said Monday that all teens must be accompanied by an adult after 9 p.m.

The policy was implemented after 100 teens rushed a movie theater Saturday night after they were denied tickets.

La.: Mardi Gras under way Revelers bundled up in winter coats filled the streets of New Orleans on Tuesday for the annual Mardi Gras bash. Retired clarinetist Pete Fountain rode a mini float decked out as a streetcar as his Half-Fast Walking Club kicked off a day of parades on Fat Tuesday. Celebrations on the eve of Lent also were held throughout south Louisiana and in coastal Mississippi and Alabama, sharing the traditions brought by French Catholics in the 18th century.

N.Y.: More measles cases Health officials say the number of U.S. measles cases this year has risen to 141.

Eighteen of the 20 new cases reported Tuesday stem from outbreaks at Disneyland in California and an Illinois day care center. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said most of the people who got measles this year were not vaccinated.

Illinois: Imam is charged Mohammad Abdullah Saleem, a prominent Islamic scholar and longtime head of a Chicago school, has been charged with sexually abusing a 23-year-old woman who worked at the school, authorities said Tuesday. A civil suit filed hours later accuses him of abusing that employee and three students. Saleem, 75, is charged with felony criminal sexual abuse.

AROUND THE WORLD Egypt: Coalition against IS President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi said Tuesday that creating a U.N.-backed coalition was the best course of action to rid Libya of Islamic extremists. ElSissi, speaking to France’s Europe 1 Radio, said Egyptian airstrikes against Islamic State group positions in Libya on Monday were in retaliation for the mass beheading of Egyptian Coptic Christians. A video of the killings was release late Sunday by a faction calling itself the Tripoli Province of the Islamic State group.

Haiti: Parade accident kills 16 At least 16 people were killed early Tuesday in Port-au-Prince after a man on top of a musical group’s Carnival float was shocked by high-voltage wires above the street, setting off a panic in which dozens of people were trampled, officials said. The accident occurred as thousands of people gathered downtown for the raucous annual celebration. Prime Minister Evans Paul said 78 were injured.

Kenya: AIDS top teen killer Global health organizations said Tuesday that AIDS is now the leading cause of death for adolescents in Africa, and the second leading cause of death among adolescents globally.

Road accidents and injury are the number one killer of adolescents globally, said Michael Hollingdale, a UNAIDS spokesman. About 120,000 people aged between 10-19 years died of AIDS-related illnesses in 2013, the eight international organizations said.

Arbitrator is focus of port dispute

By Justin Pritchard Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The labormanagement standoff that is disrupting billions of dollars of international trade at West Coast seaports now centers on the future of one man who resolves workplace disputes at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

After nine months of bargaining for a new contract and weeks of partial port shutdowns, dockworkers and their employers disagree on whether they should change the system for arbitrating allegations of work slowdowns, discrimination and other conflicts.

More specifically, their quarrel is focused on the man who since 2002 has arbitrated grievances in Southern California.

Three people with knowledge of the contract talks say negotiators for the dockworkers’ union want arbitrator David Miller out, while the association

representing employers will not support changes that would allow his immediate removal.

The people insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the negotiations publicly.

Union negotiators believe Miller favors employers in disputes, for example, claims that workers are intentionally slowing down cargo movement. In a letter

to members last week, the union’s president wrote that negotiators for employers were unwilling to budge because their side benefits from the current system.

Miller told The Associated Press he is aware that he has become the focal point of the closed-door talks but is unsure why. He figures that in the hundreds of decisions he has issued, he upset someone who is now

getting back at him.

“I’m bewildered as anybody else on the outside looking in,” Miller said.

U.S. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez entered the standoff Tuesday in San Francisco, where he settled into his new mission of forging a new contract. Perez does not have legal authority to force an agreement, but outsiders hope he can coax one that would end the protracted troubles.

Spokesmen for the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents shipping lines that carry cargo and port terminal operators that handle it once ships dock, declined to comment, citing a media blackout.

As negotiations drag on, the consequences of the cargo bottleneck are rippling through the U.S. economy.

Back to blue collar Michigan’s governor renews emphasis on manufacturing and industrial jobs.

By David Eggert Associated Press

WATERTOWN TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Only a few short years ago, Michigan leaders talked excitedly about diversifying the state’s economy beyond the auto industry, envisioning a Silicon Valley-style workforce that would be less dependent on manufacturing and more invested in

technology and green energy.

It’s the same dream shared by virtually every other governor whose state once relied on factory jobs. But it has collided with a stark reality: Car production is booming, Michigan’s skilled tradesmen are getting older and there aren’t enough qualified people to replace them in a labor pool that has started to shift away from industrial jobs.

So in a change of course, the state is going back to its roots and putting renewed emphasis on training welders, machinists, electricians and other blue-collar workers.

Gov. Rick Snyder says the

pendulum has swung too far toward encouraging students to get a four-year degree when they should also consider an apprenticeship or a community college program.

“Big mistake,” he said. “We’re paying a price for that today. If you talk to companies around the country, they will tell you their greatest concern is making sure they get talented people with the right skill sets,” including people who “can make things, can build things.”

WASHINGTON — The makers of a twice-rejected pill designed to boost sexual desire in women are hoping a yearlong lobbying push by politicians, women’s groups and consumer advocates will move their much-debated drug onto the market.

The ongoing saga of Sprout Pharmaceutical’s female libido drug illustrates the complicated politics and unresolved science surrounding women’s sexuality.

For decades, drugmakers have tried unsuccessfully to develop a female equivalent to Viagra, the blockbuster drug that treats men’s erectile dysfunction drug by increasing blood flow. But disorders of women’s sexual desire have proven resistant to drugs that act on blood flow, hormones and other simple biological functions.

Supporters of Sprout’s drug say women’s sexual disorders have been overlooked for too long by regulators at the Food and Drug Administration. But critics argue that women’s sexuality is too complex to be addressed by a single pill.

Sprout’s drug flibanserin is the first attempt to increase libido by acting on brain chemicals linked to appetite

positions have been restored.

Michigan’s newfound attention to skilled trades isn’t without skeptics.

Some question whether it’s enough simply to stress vocational options.

“A lot them grew up in families where their dads or uncles did those jobs. It’s hard to tell a kid growing up in those households, ‘Gee, this a wonderful job,’ when they watched their dad get laid off repeatedly or take wage cuts or benefit cuts,” said Lou Glazer, an economic expert and president of the nonpartisan research organization Michigan Future Inc. Employers can fix the problem by making the jobs more attractive.

“Wages have to be going up,” he said. “In these skilled trades, they’re not.”

In 2003, Michigan welders on average made $38,000 to $40,800 a year and filled nearly 22,000 positions. Ten years later, they made $36,500 to $37,600 and filled around 13,800 positions, according to federal labor statistics.

Pay has been improving in recent years as the economy has rebounded.

A top Snyder aide said that “somewhere along the line, over generations, we’ve come to conclude that the only pathway is a baccalaureate degree.”

and mood. But the Food and Drug Administration has already twice rejected the drug because of lackluster effectiveness and side effects including fatigue, dizziness and nausea.

In an effort to break the regulatory logjam, groups sponsored by Sprout and otherdrugmakershavebegun publicizing the lack of a “female Viagra” as a women’s rights issue.

“Women deserve equal treatment when it comes to sex,” states an online petition to the FDA organized by one such group, Even the Score, which garnered almost 25,000 supporters. The group’s corporate backers include Sprout Pharmaceuticals, Palatin Technologies and Trimel Pharmaceuticals — all companies developing drugs to treat female sexual disorders.

Drugmakers frequently cite a 1999 survey in the Journal of the American Medical Association that found 43 percent of U.S. women had some type of sexual dysfunction.

Sprout said Tuesday it is refiling its application for flibanserin, adding new information requested by the FDA about how the pill affects driving ability.

FDA scientists requested that data after their most recent rejection of the

drug, in part, due to results showing nearly 10 percent of women in company trials reported sleepiness as a side effect.

The FDA first rejected flibanserin in 2010 after a panel of expert advisers unanimously voted against the drug, saying its benefits did not outweigh its risks. The drug’s initial developer, Boehringer Ingelheim, abandoned work on the drug in 2011 and sold it to Sprout, a startup headed by a husband-andwife team from Raleigh, North Carolina.

Sprout resubmitted the drug with additional effectiveness and safety data, but the FDA again rejected the drug in October 2013.

After Sprout filed a formal dispute over the decision, FDA regulators requested the driving study and other details on the drug’s interactions with other medications.

If approved, flibanserin would be labeled for premenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, described as a lack of sexual appetite that causes emotional distress.

Because so many factors affect female sexual appetite, there are a number of other possible causes doctors must rule out before diagnosing the condition, including relationship problems, hormone disorders, depression and mood issues caused by other drugs like sleeping aids and pain medications.

IN OUR VIEW | 2015 Legislature

Study of little fish a big deal There’s a bit of tonguein-cheek about La Conner’s annual Smelt Derby, which celebrates its 50th anniversary on Feb. 28 in the Skagit Valley town on the Swinomish Channel.

There is, of course, a Rotary pancake breakfast, a fun run and fish prints for the kids, but the main event is the day’s surf smelt derby, with prizes for the largest and smallest of the herringlike fish caught from the docks that line the waterfront.

The diminutive smelt, while good eatin’ pan-fried, won’t ever compete with salmon in terms of Northwest stature, but that doesn’t mean they and their cousin, the sand lance, aren’t important to salmon and other sea life, shorebirds and to the interests

of sports fishers, commercial fishers, Indian tribes, wildlife enthusiasts and those who depend upon their business.

It’s why Senate Bill 5166 is seeking $2 million for the most comprehensive study of surf smelt and sand lance ever undertaken in the state’s waters. Observations of the forage fish, which are preyed upon by salmon, shorebirds and are a base for the rest of the food web all the way up to orca whales and humans, have shown a decline in their stocks.

“Forage fish populations are plummeting, and the general belief is that this may be why some marine bird populations are plummeting, and why the salmon are smaller and the orca whales are hungry,” said state Sen. Christine Rolfes, DBainbridge Island, as quoted

by the Kitsap Sun. Rolfes proposed the legislation.

Rolfes’ bill would require the state departments of Fish & Wildlife and Natural Resources to work together to survey the spawning grounds of the forage fish, using volunteers and veterans with the Veterans Conservation Corps.

Smelt also would be added to the list of fish that will require a fishing license, which will allow Fish and Wildlife to better track where and how much smelt is being caught.

Similar surveys, including one of herring in the waters off Bellingham, showed a decline from 15,000 tons in 1973 to about 1,000 tons in 2012.

Among the possible causes of decline of forage fish are some of the same sources that may already be affecting

salmon, orcas and other sea life populations, including point and nonpoint pollution from chemicals, oil spills, parasites, disease, a decline in food and increased shoreline development, the Sun reported. Smelt spawn in intertidal areas, making them vulnerable to impacts from shoreline development.

Environmental and sport fishing groups are backing the legislation, as should anyone with an interest in preserving our stocks of fish and the state’s recreation industry.

If something — and it’s more likely to be a combination of impacts — is causing a decline in a species that is the basis for everything else on up the web, then it’s worth $2 million to find out what’s going on.

railroads were quick to tell the public that the new cars would make transport of crude oil safe, in fact no more dangerous than, say, canola oil.

So how did a train made up of the new CPC-1232 cars and traveling at in-town speeds, manage to derail, rupture and spill flaming crude oil into Virginia’s James River? Why, in January, did a train of CPC-1232 cars carrying oil from the Bakken field have to leave behind a car in Idaho when it was discovered to be leaking? When the train made it to Vancouver, they found another seven leaking cars. They had to be left behind!

The train then traveled toward Anacortes, and in Auburn another six cars were found to be leaking and had to be left behind! The train continued its leaking way to Anacortes!

I don’t know about you, but I fail to see how the new cars make crude by rail safe! Safe for what? Safe for who? Safe for fish? Safe for kids on the school playground? Crude oil trains are unsafe at any speed, and the trains filled with Bakken crude oil are the most dangerous of all! We should not let crude by oil come to our harbor!

than the products of chemistry.

A flurry of logical absurdities follow from that assessment, including the dissolution of the concept of innate human value.

Hence, the murder of multiplied millions of Russia’s people.

I do not deny that atheists can be moral citizens in this world, for the very same reason as everyone else. That reason is that all live under human governments whose purpose includes restraining law-breakers. Neither do I deny that religious people too, including Christians, are deeply (sinfully) flawed. That is exactly what the Bible claims and illustrates. But atheism denies the very existence of an ultimate law-giver before whom everyone will give account. Atheism also undercuts the notion of morality that has always been foundational to civil society. I disagree with the writer’s apparent resistance to connecting beliefs with action. As with atheism (just illustrated), so with other religions; every central teaching anticipates its intended fruit. Since Jesus gave his life for the world, and did so as a model for his followers (John 13:15), so-called “Christians” who murder in his name obviously contradict his message.

Instead of fleeing honest evaluation, let us humbly connect the dots between every “ism” and their logical outcome.

Seems like he would rather talk about funding a higher fuel and refinery tax. Good plan, we should make big bucks with all those ships backed up to the Strait of Juan de Fuca idling along with the trucks and refrigerated containers backed up at the port. Where is the Gipper?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■PROVIDENCE

Nurses’ concerns are our concerns The 18,000 members of the International Association of Machinists & Aerospace Workers District 751 who live and work in Everett depend on the quality care of the nurses and health care professionals at the Providence-Everett Medical Center when we or our family are sick, need care, or have an emergency. Our jobs are physically demanding and we rely on competent and capable healthcare workers to keep us well.

That is why if nurses are concerned that understaffing is compromising their ability to care for their patients, we are concerned too. We expect Prov-Everett to remain a center of health care excellence by responding to the calls of their professional, highly trained workers and provide staffing that meets the needs of their patients.

We need our good health in order to focus on what we do best, building planes for the 21st century. Our community needs our nurses to be able to focus on what they do best — caring for all patients in need, not making impossible choices about who they have time to help when short staffed. Prov-Everett needs to fix these problems, so that we can all continue to have access to high quality health care.

■■OIL TRAINS

New tanker cars not a solution As everyone knows, the past couple of years have had more train derailments and crude oil spills than at any previous time in recent history. More crude oil was spilled from rail cars in 2013 than in the previous four decades combined, and 2014 was equally bad. Transporting oil by rail has caused many explosions, fires and deaths.

Last year the U.S. Department of Transportation put some rules in place that were intended to make the crude oil trains safe.

Some of the “rules” were to be followed voluntarily by the railroad companies. Requiring slower speed limits, for instance, in sensitive and high population areas. But a new kind of tank car was looked on as having great potential to keep towns and people safe from the fiery explosions that occur all too often when a crude oil train has an accident!

The cars were to replace the older ones that easily rupture in a derailment. The new CPC1232 cars have thicker ends so they are less likely to rupture, and they have better valves on the top to control pressure. The

■■ATHEISM

Teachings beget logical outcomes Regarding the Feb. 9 letter, “Stalin killed for power, period”: Atheism is a belief that is defined not by affirmation, but by what it denies (atheism means belief that there is no god). So one should not expect Stalin to have trumpeted whom he denied as a contributing cause of his murderous rule. It has been left to deeper thinkers to make that connection.

In Dostoyevsky’s novel, “The Brothers Karamazov,” Alyosha retorted to Dmitri’s materialistic assertion, “without God and eternal life? All things are lawful then, they can do what they like?” ((Signet Classic, 1999), p.

557). Dmitri’s same boast also connected materialism to the conviction that humans consist of absolutely nothing more

■■PORT STOPPAGE

Corporations, unions run U.S. It seems to me that I finally understand who runs the USA. Is it the Republicans? The Democrats? No. Our elected brothers/sisters know it is corporate America and the big unions. Can The Herald report the news? Did I miss something; we have not seen any reporting on the port slowdown. How many folks have lost their jobs because of this slow down/stoppage? I have not heard anything from Patty Murray or Maria Cantwell. The governor, well, he is on board with his constituents.

■■NFL

Problems are being addressed Regarding the Feb. 13 letter “Fans overlook NFL’s problems”: The writer correctly observed that concussions are a regrettable aspect of football.

Fortunately, the issue isn’t being taken lightly anymore; because of new rules, there were 25 percent fewer concussions this past season. Hopefully the improvement will continue. Still, injuries will never be completely eliminated and players will continue to accept the risks in exchange for the rewards.

It’s understandable that some deem these personal career decisions to be unwise. Even if their thinking has merit though, are fans who enjoy cheering for athletes performing at the highest level, really deserving of contempt? The writer clearly thinks so: His rant is just another disappointing reminder of how eager some people are to assume the worst of others. Consider: “Besides teaching them how to hate, football fanatics teach their children to pay ridiculously high prices for stadium seats, and NFL merchandise as other nations are kicking our tail in math and science.” Are rebuttals necessary here or will it suffice toay that this is one of the goofiest things I’ve ever read?

Another comment is directed at fellow churchgoers he suspects of enjoying football games more than religious services: “The idolatry is sad and sickening.” A command given by some guy long ago, seems appropriate: “Judge not, that ye be not judged.” (And of course, my opinions may be wrong.)

he House of Representatives seems to be trying mightily to make itself irrelevant, with Speaker John Boehner leading the effort. I can’t help but think of the old proverb: “The dogs bark, but the caravan moves on.”

The caravan, in this case, consists of President Obama, the Senate and the American people.

It’s still early, but one has to wonder whether anything but EUGENE ROBINSON yipping and yapping will emerge from the House before the next election.

Under Boehner’s leadership, the House insists on holding the Department of Homeland Security hostage in an attempt to force Obama to undo his executive actions on immigration. Funding for the agency expires at the end of the month, and the House refuses to take up a simple appropriations bill without attaching unrelated immigration measures that have no chance of getting past the Senate or the president.

The timing of this attempted power play is less than exquisite. Each day seems to bring new reminders of the potential threat posed by terrorism. A group allied with the Islamic State parades 21 Coptic Christians onto a beach in Libya and savagely beheads them. A lone-wolf gunman stages a deadly attack in Copenhagen, perhaps modeled on the Charlie Hebdo killing rampage in Paris.

So is this the moment to play political games with the nation’s safety from terrorist attacks? “Certainly,” said Boehner, when asked Sunday whether he was prepared to see Homeland Security run out of funding.

Boehner’s stated position is that “the House has acted, we’ve done our job,” and that blame should fall on Senate Democrats for refusing to acquiesce in the anti-immigration putsch. “Senate Democrats are the ones standing in the way.

They’re the ones jeopardizing funding,” Boehner said.

Some Republicans worry, however, that if Homeland Security does run out of money, the GOP will surely be blamed.

Boehner has been around long enough to see his party get hammered after previous shutdowns. Surely he can’t really believe the political impact of this one, if it happens, will be any different.

So what is Boehner up to? A couple of weeks ago, it appeared that the speaker was staging an elaborate demonstration for the benefit of the more radical members of his caucus. They would pass their bill to undo Obama’s immigration reforms, witness that it had no chance of getting through the Senate, and decide, sensibly, to pass a clean funding bill. Then they would pick a more favorable battleground — or, at least, more favorable timing — for their next fight with the president.

If this were Boehner’s grand plan, though, by now he should be scrambling to design a climb-down that does not look like capitulation. Instead, he continues to actively encourage right-wing intransigence. I don’t understand why.

A clean Homeland Security bill, with no immigration provisions, probably would pass. Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi says such legislation would receive unanimous Democratic support; and there may be enough moderate Republications who will join in.

But Boehner is loath to bring to the floor any bill that does not have the support of a majority of the Republican caucus. This policy has allowed him to keep his job as speaker through four politically tumultuous years. But it has not allowed the House to accomplish much of anything at all.

Things were supposed to be different once the GOP won control of the Senate.

But they aren’t. The GOP can’t even pass a bill allowing the agency that’s supposed to protect us from terrorist attacks to stay open for business.

This is not a dispute over money; the House isn’t being frugal. It isn’t even a dispute over policy; House Republicans could have a proper immigration debate, if they wanted to, by using as a starting point the bipartisan immigration reform package passed by the Senate in 2013. Members of the tea party caucus don’t really want to take up the immigration issue, however.

They want to stamp their feet.

And Boehner chooses to let them stamp away. There are those who believe Boehner to be a skillful tactician. I see, instead, a hapless substitute teacher whose unruly class refuses to come to order. At this rate, his only legacy will be his own survival.

LOCAL BRIEFLY

Still no sign of missing pet wallaby ARLINGTON — The search is off for Bella, a pet wallaby that went missing Jan. 9 along Highway 530 east of downtown Arlington. It’s been several weeks since anyone has reported a sighting, said Ray Strom, owner of the Outback Kangaroo Farm.

Bella escaped while being transferred from a cage in the back of a truck to a pen at the kangaroo farm. Strom and his wife had agreed to temporarily house Bella and two

the buttons wear down, the material starts to wear away.”

Add temperature extremes a plastic seat experiences sitting in a car year after year, as well as the constant clicking and unclicking of latches and buckles to get a child in and out. “That just wears out over time,” she said.

The safety features of new models also mean the seat you get for your youngest could be vastly improved over the design you had for your oldest.

Guzman pointed to the LATCH and tether system now standard on most car seats as an example. “We saw less head and neck injuries.”

Similarly, repurposed car seats can be dangerous. A car seat might not be expired, but if it’s fitted with replacement straps or parts that weren’t made for that model, the seat might not fit properly in the car.

It’s a situation Guzman has come across in Snohomish County in her work performing car seat installation checks. She notes that many manufacturers offer replacement parts for specific models, sometimes for free.

“Everyone wants to do what’s best for their child.

We want to steer them to the safest answers,” she said.

Safety concerns are part of the reason disassembling car seats and recycling them is so difficult.

Some seats are reinforced with steel. There are new models that even have electronic components.

There are options — if you’re willing to travel or pay.

Legacy Health in Portland is nationally known for its recycling program, which includes taking expired car seats that have been stripped and prepared to certain standards.

The company is able to do it because of the scale at which it works. Legacy’s 8,500-square-foot recycling center takes in 2,000 tons of material a year, including electronics, Styrofoam, ink cartridges, solvents and more.

In 2014, the center recycled just over 6 tons of car seats through a recycling vendor, said Bill Clark, the program’s outgoing director.

“We’ve got a unique program. I get calls from all around the U.S. It’d be nice if other people did it,” Clark said.

The Portland program has become a resource for locals trying to kick-start similar programs here.

The Safe Kids Spokane program, operated by Providence Sacred Heart Children’s Hospital, takes expired car seats at car seat checks and, when they

Car seat ideas Some ideas for repurposing an expired car seat: ■ Use the straps and padding to make handbags.

■ Convert the seat into a swing for kids or into a bed for dogs.

■ Use the seat for pretend play — they make great spaceship captain chairs, especially tipped toward the ceiling (er, space).

issue for six years.

“There’s already so much big stuff to think about in the world” for new parents, “the last thing we want to do is contribute to a bad future for them by trashing all this stuff,” Christensen said.

CoolMom produced recycleyourcarseat.org with Zero Waste Washington to connect people with resources and options.

For now, one-time recycling events remain the best bet — and those are few.

One store the group partnered with closed during the recession.

Then a nonprofit stopped taking expired seats when those seats started vastly outnumbering the reusable seats the group was primarily seeking.

have enough, ships them at no cost to Legacy’s recycling center.

Getting the same deal here is unlikely, according to Kimberly Christensen of CoolMom, a longtime advocate in King County for car seat recycling.

The Seattle area could likely produce in a month what Spokane produced in a year. “They don’t want to become inundated,” she said of the Portland program.

Farther afield, BabyEarth, an eco-friendly retailer in the Austin, Texas, area, will take expired car seats that are shipped to them. But that might not be practical for a single family. A rough estimate to ship a large car seat comes in at nearly $70 at the cheapest end.

The other two wallabies have settled in well among the farm’s 42 resident kangaroos, Strom said. It’s unclear what happened to Bella. Cold weather, unfamiliar territory and predators all present dangers to the wandering wallaby.

Locations in Bellevue and Issaquah offer dropoff recycling, but only if you can prove residency.

It’s baby steps, Christensen said. CoolMom plans periodic car seat events in King County as it lines up recyclers willing to work with them. Christensen calls it a “stop-gap” while longer-term solutions are worked out.

“The one thing that I encourage people to do is always call their car seat manufacturer and ask them, ‘Do you offer recycling and, if not, why not?’

The more they hear from consumers, the more likely they are to consider it,” Christensen added.

So far, Clek is the only major manufacturer with a recycling program.

Britax, a major car seat manufacturer, is among those that appears to be starting to take notice.

“They’re working currently on some kind of recycling program,” but “it’s in the talks at this point,” said Kristen Johnson, who works for a public relations firm that represents the company.

What you can do now Whether you toss your seat or recycle it, there are some specific steps you need to take to get it ready.

“Strip it bare,” Guzman said.

Remove and cut padding and straps, remove hardware and dispose of it separately, and write “DESTROY” on the car seat shell with permanent marker. Some manufacturers also recommend blacking out serial numbers and manufacturing dates.

unanimously to make the change. The decision keeps $600,000 in the project budget by starting earlier.

The accelerated timeline means six tenants at the former Woodway campus will have to move out by June. Employees with one of those businesses, Mini Einstein Learning Center, told School board members earlier that the sudden switch could mean they go out of business.

Board members said the decision was difficult.

“The Lynndale kids have been waiting a long time and how many times have we had to repair the roof at their school this year alone? Our priority is to the Lynndale community and those kids,” board President Diana White said.

was finally able to get on the board. The Eagles kept the game close throughout the first quarter, even taking a lead of 14-13 with 2:04 to play, but the momentum stayed with the Grizzlies.

Arlington’s brief lead turned out to be its only one of the game.

Glacier Peak senior Kianna Garner’s 3-pointer as time expired in the first period capped off a 7-0 run for the Grizzlies and gave them a 20-14 lead.

Things got worse for Arlington in the second quarter. The

EVERETT — Logan Aasman was a solitary figure on the ice at Xfinity Arena on Tuesday afternoon. While the rest of his Everett Silvertips teammates had the day off, he was put through the paces by assistant coach Brennan Sonne and athletic trainer Wayne Duncan.

But Aasman was just fine with the extra work. It meant he was one day closer to making his return.

After a lengthy absence because of a concussion, Aasman is on the brink of returning to Everett’s lineup, just in time for the stretch run.

“It’s great to be back,” Aasman said. “I was getting pretty bored sitting at home and not able to do anything. It feels good to get back doing anything, but when you can be down here playing hockey it’s even better.”

Aasman, a 19-year-old winger, hasn’t played since Everett’s 4-3 overtime loss to Kootenay at home on Nov. 30. The towering thirdyear veteran, who is usually employed by the Tips in a checking Logan role, had two goals Aasman: and six assists in 25 Three-year contests when he veteran scored two goals was shut down.

While the game and added six against Kootenay assists in 25 was his last, it may games before not have been the his injury. game in which he suffered the concussion.

“It was weird,” Aasman said. “I actually don’t know for sure when it happened. I kind of got hurt a month before that, and then I had a really bad sinus infection that was giving me headaches. We’re not really sure when it took place. “(The Kootenay game) was when it started getting bad, but it may not have happened in that one.”

Aasman was sent home to Medicine Hat, Alberta, early for Christmas break. He returned to Everett following the break, but he wasn’t ready to return to action. He boarded the bus with

MILL CREEK — The Glacier Peak girls basketball team waited for its toughest stretch of games this season to play its best basketball.

In less than two weeks, the Grizzlies have played Lynnwood, Edmonds-Woodway, Ferndale and in Tuesday’s 3A district 1 tournament semifinals, Arlington — some of the finest 3A girls basketball teams in the state.

After winning 63-55 over Arlington on Tuesday, the Grizzlies are 4-0 in those games. More importantly, the win sends them to next weekend’s state regional round and Saturday’s district championship game against Lynnwood.

“The girls have worked so hard all year and to be where we’re at right now with the league we’re in, I couldn’t be happier,” Glacier Peak head coach Brian Hill said.

“It’s great for us to keep playing hard. Arlington just battled and battled and battled. It was a great game. I kind of knew it would be.”

Lynnwood storms back to beat Edmonds-Woodway Second-ranked Royals recover from a rough first quarter to defeat the Warriors 67-51, advance to the district title game.

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

MILL CREEK — After victories by 33 and 25 over Edmonds-Woodway earlier in the season, it appeared the Lynnwood girls basketball team was in for a different kind of battle in the 3A district 1 semifinals at Jackson High School on Tuesday.

The Warriors led by seven at the end of the first quarter and had momentum on their side.

Then Royals came to life and showed why they’re the No. 2 3A team in the state.

Lynnwood used an 11-0 run in the second quarter to seize control and never let it go en route to a 67-51 win. The Royals advance to Saturday’s district championship game against Glacier Peak and also earn an automatic

berth to the state regional round.

Edmonds-Woodway will play a loser-out game on Thursday night.

Lynnwood head coach Everett Edwards is used to his team facing adversity in the Jackson gym.

Two years ago, the Royals were eliminated in the state-regional round by Kentwood in a double overtime game. With his team down seven after one, the Royals called on lessons learned previously.

“Nervous, excited, whatever it is, we’ve been down that road before,” Edwards said. “In this gym we’ve experienced heartache and I call it the twilight zone.

We talked about it before the game saying that we might be 10 points down and we would have to make the adjustments to come back and the prophecy came

true.”

A big reason for the comeback was the Royals’ defense against Edmonds-Woodway point guard Moni Jackson, who finished the game with just six points.

“We paid a little bit more attention to Simone (Moni) Jackson, their point guard,” Edwards said.

“We felt that she is their catalyst and if we could limit their touches it would mess up their offensive flow. That being said, they still hit some big shots, but I think their mojo got a little bit out of whack in terms of their offensive sets because other kids have to handle the ball.”

In addition to Jackson’s struggles, senior sharpshooter Natalie Kasper was held to six points as well.

“That was the gameplan,” Edwards said. “I’ve known Natalie since she was a little kid and she’s just a phenomenal shooter

A-Rod apologizes Associated Press NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez issued a five-paragraph handwritten apology “for the mistakes that led to my suspension” on Tuesday without detailing specifics about his use of performance-enhancing drugs.

Ready to report to the New York Yankees following a seasonlong suspension for violating baseball’s drug agreement and labor contract, Rodriguez apologized to team officials in person during a meeting at the ballpark on Feb. 10. They suggested he hold a news conference before the start of spring training this Friday and offered the use of Yankee Stadium, but Rodriguez declined.

Commissioner Bud Selig suspended Rodriguez for 211 games in August 2013, citing conduct from 2010-12 uncovered during MLB’s investigation of Biogenesis, which was based in Coral Gables, Florida, not far from Rodriguez’s home.

Mariners catcher Mike Zunino hit 22 home runs in the 2014 season.

Zunino needs to improve production

By Bob Dutton The New Tribune

PEORIA, Ariz.— With one exception, everyone connected with the Seattle Mariners generally concedes the organization rushed catcher Mike Zunino to the majors in 2013 after he had played less than a year in the minors.

That one exception — no surprise — is Zunino himself, who refuses to use his lack of development time as an excuse for his offensive shortcomings.

“Looking at it now,” he said, “I learned what I need to do, what I need to expect, and I think I can carry that into this year.”

That’s fine and, perhaps, true ... but Zunino said that last spring— and then batted .199 with a .254 on-base percentage.

On the plus side, he did hit 22 homers and displayed a knack for handling a diverse pitching staff.

Those defensive skills remain paramount, but everyone in the organization, including Zunino, knows he needs to boost his average/on-base percentage because the Mariners expect him to catch 125-plus games again.

That Zunino increase his production — and remain healthy — is one of the key elements in

the club’s push to return to postseason for the first time since 2001 because the supporting cast is thin.

The Locks Barring injury, Zunino will be the starter five or six times a week. He’s young (he turns 24 on March 25) and durable (he led the American League last year when hit 17 times by pitches).

Zunino already displays advanced defensive skills, and club officials are convinced if he can just get his on-base percentage up to .300 (still well below the league average of .316), his production will zoom.

RBI AVG 27 .296 16 .274 60 .199 RBI AVG 15 .192 23 .254 13 .209 49 .301

Spring battles While the Mariners are bringing some legitimate prospects to camp, the job as Zunino’s backup projects as a battle between incumbent Jesus Sucre and veteran newcomer John Baker.

Both are catch-and-throw receivers (i.e., they don’t hit much), but that’s fine since the Mariners, like many clubs, emphasize defensive skills in their backup catcher. (That’s why they cut veteran John Buck last July.)

Baker, 34, offers the plus of being a left-handed alternative to Zunino’s right-handed

bat. And while Baker batted just .192 last season with the Cubs, he had a .258 average and a .342 OBP over six previous big-league seasons.

Scouts say Sucre is better at controlling the running game and rates slightly higher as a better overall defensive catcher.

One thing to remember: Baker is in camp on a minor-league contract, which means he would need to be added to the 40-man roster to make the big-league club.

Also, Baker has sufficient service time to refuse a minorleague assignment once added to the big-league roster. Sucre is already on the 40-man roster and has options remaining.

Those factors favor Sucre if the competition turns into a coin-flip.

Help if needed The Sucre/Baker loser will be on-call at Triple-A Tacoma if circumstances require a replacement at the big-league level.

If one replaces the other, there would be little drop-off. But if Zunino suffers a major injury ... well, that’s a different story.

Club officials also believe John Hicks, added last November to the 40-man roster, has the necessary defensive skills to hold his own, if needed, in the majors.

Combine puts spotlight on wide receivers

By Mark Maske The Washington Post

The 2015 NFL season was riddled with highlights from rookie wide receivers, starting with the New York Giants’ Odell Beckham Jr., the league’s offensive rookie of the year. But he had plenty of company.

As this year’s NFL scouting combine arrives, teams will look to another draft class to try to find potentially eye-catching wideouts capable of stepping in and immediately revving up passing games. Perhaps no one should expect a repeat of this past season’s exploits by newcomer wide receivers. But talent evaluators say there certainly are gifted players to be found among this year’s group of draft-eligible wideouts.

“I do believe it’s going to be highly productive because ... there’s a bunch of talent and ... the rules and the way we play in the NFL today lend itself” to that, said Mike Mayock, a draft analyst for the league-owned NFL

Grizzlies From Page C1

Grizzlies built their lead to as many as 13 and led 35-24 at halftime thanks to their second buzzer-beater of the game, this time a runner by sophomore Paisley Johnson as time expired in the first half.

“We just weren’t making shots,” Arlington head coach Joe Marsh said. “It’s tough in a game like this if you don’t score.

We did a way better job in the second half. We came out and

Network.

There were five wide receivers taken in the opening round of last year’s NFL draft, beginning with Sammy Watkins of Clemson going fourth overall to the Buffalo Bills. Mike Evans of Texas A&M was taken seventh overall by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Beckham, from LSU, went 12th to the Giants. Brandin Cooks of Oregon State went 20th to the New Orleans Saints and Florida State’s Kelvin Benjamin went 28th to the Carolina Panthers.

In most cases, teams that chose wide receivers early in last year’s draft were rewarded handsomely. Beckham grabbed the national spotlight with perhaps the greatest catch ever made in the sport. But his rookie season was about so much more than a single catch. He had 91 catches for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns in only a dozen games.

Evans and Benjamin also topped 1,000 receiving yards and Watkins came close, falling 18 yards shy of 1,000. A dozen

rookie wideouts had more than 500 receiving yards.

Mayock, during a conference call with reporters this week, called last season’s rookie wide receivers “historically tremendous.” As for this year’s draft class at the position, Mayock said he sees three wideouts — West Virginia’s Kevin White, Alabama’s Amari Cooper and DeVante Parker of Louisville — among the consensus choices as the draft’s top 20 selections.

The wide receivers could begin coming off the board, Mayock said, with the Oakland Raiders and the fourth overall pick.

“I think Cooper is the safest pick of that group — really good route runner, had over 100 catches last year, reminds me of some of those wide outs that played on the ‘Greatest Show on Turf’ with Dick Vermeil in St. Louis like Torry Holt, for example, that type of wide receiver,” Mayock said. “Whereas the other two, Kevin White and DeVante Parker, are bigger-bodied guys

where you can throw it up and they can win jump balls. I would imagine that one of those three guys are going to be the Raiders’ pick. And I think any one of the three could be highly productive.”

It is a pass-first league with passing-friendly rules, and Mayock said that makes for an easier transition to the pro game now for young wide receivers.

“These kids have been used to catching the football forever,” Mayock said. “Everything is a pass-first league now. Number two, with the emphasis on the five-yard illegal contact rule, the smaller wideouts are getting off press coverage. They know after five yards they can run routes with impunity. Finally, the bigbodied wideouts, they don’t really have to be route runners.

They’re 6-5, 230 pounds. With the advent of the back-shoulder throw, they can be productive Day One. I think the league is set up to be productive, more so than ever, for rookie wide receivers and tight ends.”

we battled. We just didn’t get enough stops.

“We probably had our worst quarter of the year in that second quarter.”

The Eagles made a lot more shots after halftime, but they never did figure out how to get enough stops. Arlington cut the Glacier Peak lead to six several times in the game’s final 16 minutes, but never got any closer.

“We just didn’t get enough stops tonight,” Marsh said.

“They’re too good if they score like that. It’s just going to be too tough to come back.”

Johnson made several of those key shots and finished with 15

points for the Grizzlies.

“Paisley just goes 100 miles per hour,” Hill said. “She’s very athletic and she can attack and she can shoot. When the shot clock is winding down she finished a couple of them down the stretch. I know she can probably get to the rack or at least make a good choice to kick it out. Having her athleticism on the court is huge for us.”

Glacier Peak sophomore Kayla Watkins led all scorers with 18.

Arlington now finds itself in a position where it must win its next two games to advance to the state regional round.

“Here we go,” Marsh said. “We

put ourselves in this position, now we’ve got to go battle like we’ve done all year and we’ve got to play better than we did tonight.”

The Grizzlies have now qualified for five straight state regional games and five straight district championship games.

Lynnwood, the Grizzlies’ opponent in Saturday’s title game, suffered its only league loss of the season to Glacier Peak on Feb. 6.

“Both teams know each other pretty well and we have a history between each other,” Hill said.

“It’s always good. It’s just good friendly basketball. It’s going to be a fun game. It will be good.”

Cascade boys bounce back, stay alive with 67-56 win over Mariner

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

EVERETT — Three nights after the most heartbreaking loss of the season, the Cascade boys basketball team showed its heart and determination with a bounce-back victory that extends its season for at least one more game.

Against an equally determined Mariner squad, the Bruins built an early lead that reached double digits midway through the first period and again early in the second period.

Cascade never trailed again, but neither did the Marauders go away, hanging around until the late minutes before the Bruins finally pulled away for a 67-56 District 1 tournament victory on Tuesday at Everett Community College.

On Saturday night, the Bruins had a chance to reach the district championship game, but instead dropped a 71-69

4A District Basketball Tuesday’s games (losers out) BOYS Cascade 67, Mariner 56 Kamiak 59, Snohomish 56 GIRLS Jackson 64, Mount Vernon 32 Monroe 51, Kamiak 26 overtime decision to Jackson on a last-second shot by Timberwolves guard Brian Brown.

“That game was the toughest loss I’ve ever (been in),” said Cascade guard Brevin Brown.

“That, like, killed us. But we’re going to bounce back.”

“It was a tough loss,” agreed guard Cameron McGrath. “We played our hearts out.”

Knowing how deflated his team was after Saturday’s game,

Bruins coach Darrell McNeal admitted he came away “not know how we were going to bounce back. But I’m pretty pleased with the way we performed. ... There are still some things we need to work on and there always are, but at least their effort and their heart were there.”

After spotting the Marauders the game’s first two points, Cascade got a putback basket from forward Isaiah Gotell and then three straight 3-pointers from McGrath (two) and forward Justin Gordon. Mariner countered with a field goal, and then Brown added another 3-pointer for a 14-4 margin.

But the Marauders refused to submit quietly. Trailing 34-21 late in the second quarter, they closed the half with six straight points and then continued to chip away at the deficit in the third period.

A jump shot from near the free throw line by DeRhaun Mallett

pulled Mariner within 44-42 late in the quarter, but from there the Bruins slowly began to stretch their margin. Forward Brennen Hancock had seven of his 12 points in the fourth quarter as the lead reached a high of 14 points, 66-52, with two minutes to play in the game.

Gotell led the Bruins with 18 points and McGrath added 15, including three 3-pointers.

With the victory, Cascade advances to play Kamiak in a 4:45 p.m. loser-out game Thursday, again at Everett CC. Despite the win, some of the Bruins were less than satisfied. “We can’t play like this (on Thursday) or else we’re going to be out,” Hancock said.

“We have to come back at practice (today) and get some work done, and then get it done on Thursday.”

Mariner, which saw its season end, got 12 points from Mallet, 11 from Erwin Dzeko and 10 from Jalen Hayes.

SNOHOMISH COUNTY COUNCIL SNOHOMISH COUNTY, WASHINGTON NOTICE OF INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE AND NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that the Snohomish County Council will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, March 4, 2015, at the hour of 10:30 a.m. in the Henry M. Jackson Hearing Room, 8th Floor, Robert J. Drewel Building, 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, Everett, Washington to consider proposed Ordinance No. 15-006, adopting the 2015-2020 Capital Improvement Program as a part of Snohomish County’s Growth Management Act Comprehensive Plan.

Policy Changes No new policy changes are being proposed or implemented in the 2015-2020 Capital Improvement Program. The 2015-2020 Capital Improvement Program was developed as part of the 2015 Budget adoption process.

The following is a summary of the proposed ordinance: ORDINANCE NO. 15-006 ADOPTING THE 2015-2020 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM AS A PART OF SNOHOMISH COUNTY’S GROWTH MANAGEMENT ACT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Section 1. States that the county council adopts foregoing recitals as findings and conclusions.

Section 2. States proposed findings of fact and conclusions, including but not limited to, determinations that the action complies with the goals of the GMA, the county’s Growth Management Act Comprehensive Plan - including the CFP, state and county environmental review procedures, and the county’s public hearing process.

Section 3. States that the county council bases its findings and conclusions on the entire record of the planning commission and the county council, including all testimony and exhibits.

Section 4. Adopts the 2015-2020 Capital Improvement Program.

Section 5. States that the 2015-2020 CIP supersedes all other county Capital Improvement Programs.

Section 6. The council directs the code reviser to update SCC 30.10.060.

Section 7. States the terms of severability for the ordinance.

Exhibit A plus Amendments 1 through 10, the 2015-2020 Capital Improvement Program.

The CIP is a component of the Capital Facilities Plan but is a physically separate document that fulfills the County’s related financial and infrastructure responsibilities required under state and local law. The 2015-2020 CIP, like previous CIPs, divides the County’s capital projects into three broad categories: 1) General Government; 2) Transportation; and 3) Proprietary. Many small or mid-sized projects are consolidated into several program categories under these three broad headings, with funding sources and expenditure levels identified for each category over the next 6 ye a r s. T h e C I P i n c o r p o r a t e s t h e a n n u a l Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n Improvement Program and its suppor ting documents for the surface transportation capital construction program by reference.

The CIP also includes a determination of whether probable funding for public facilities that support development will fall short of maintaining minimum level-of-ser vice standards (called the “statement of assessment”). The GMA requires the County to take action if funding is found to be insufficient to ensure that new development will be served by adequate public facilities. Exhibit A also includes Amendments State Environmental Policy Act: To comply with the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) on this proposal, the county, on September 5, 2014, issued Addendum No. 45 to the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Snohomish County GMA Comprehensive Plan 10-Year Update. Copies of all applicable SEPA documents are available at the office of the Snohomish County Council.

Public Testimony: Anyone interested may testify concerning the above-described matter. The Chair of the Council may choose to limit testimony to three minutes in the interest of accommodating all persons wishing to testify. Written testimony is encouraged and may be sent to the office of the County Council at the following address: Snohomish County Council, 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, MS-609, Everett, WA 98201. Faxed documents may be sent to (425) 388-3496 or E-mailed to www.contact.council@snoco.org.

Where to Get Copies of Proposed Ordinance: Copies of the full text of the ordinance under consideration, including attachments, are available in the office of the County Council. They may be obtained by calling (425) 388-3494, 1-(800) 562-4367 x3494, TDD (425) 388-3700 or E-mailing to contact.council@snoco.org. Copies may be picked up at the Council office at 3000 Rockefeller, Everett, WA or will be mailed upon request.

Range of Possible Actions the County Council May Take on This Proposal: At the conclusion of its public hearing(s), the County Council may take one of the following actions: (1) adopt the proposed ordinance; (2) adopt an amended version of the proposed ordinance; (3) decline to adopt the proposed ordinance; (4) adopt such other proposals or modification of such proposals as were considered by the council at its own hearing; or (5) take any other action permitted by law.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED: Section 1. The Council makes the following findings of fact: there are unexpected funds in the amount of $75,000 in grant funds from Washington State’s Recreation and Conservation Office and that a supplemental appropriation in the Parks Construction Fund 309, for the 2015 budget year, in the amount of $75,000, is necessary to provide expenditure authority related to repairs on a portion of Whitehorse Trail.

Section 2. The appropriation unit and allocation detail are as follows: 309 Parks Construction Fund EXPENDITURE: 309.51094804146501 Construction $ 75,000 REVENUE: 309.310985480270 Recreation Conservation Office $ 75,000 Total Supplemental Appropriation Fund 309: $ 75,000 Section 3. The County Council further finds that there is a need for such supplemental appropriation because the funds which support it were unanticipated at the time of adoption of the 2015 budget and have not been previously appropriated.

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

Accommodations for persons with disabilities will be provided upon request. Please make arrangements one week prior to the hearing by calling Randy Reed at (425) 388-3901, 1(800)5624367, or TDD # (425) 388-3700, or e-mail to randy.reed@snoco.org.

Decision time for NBA teams as deadline nears

By Brian Mahoney Associated Press

NEW YORK — The East was a twoteam race at last year’s trade deadline, and Larry Bird made the move he thought would win it.

When the Indiana Pacers acquired Evan Turner from rebuilding Philadelphia, they hoped it would provide the scoring punch to beat out Miami and reach the NBA Finals. It didn’t, and Turner is now in Boston.

Now the Pacers are trying to get in the postseason, two games out of eighth place and seeking a spark that could sling-shot them past others down the bottom of the playoff ladder. Bird promises to be as aggressive as when his team on top.

“We’re always looking to improve the team and obviously there’s a lot of improvement that needs to be done,” the Pacers’ president said recently. “So we’ll look around the league and talk to a lot of different people and see what’s out there and hopefully we can do something that makes us better.”

If not, he said, he’ll wait until the summer.

That’s what every NBA team has to decide in the next couple of days.

The trade deadline is Thursday afternoon, and with many teams in contention, the question is whether that makes them more conservative or cautious.

Help could be found in the hours before the NBA returns from its AllStar break. But some will be hesitant to tinker with so little time left in the season. The Turner deal, in which Indiana traded popular veteran Danny Granger, certainly didn’t help its locker room chemistry.

Aasman From Page C1

the team when it left for its eastern road trip following the Tips’ game at Seattle on Dec. 30, but he was dropped off at home on the way to Saskatchewan so he could recover further.

“I just felt off,” Aasman said. “Everything I did, it’s like you’re not yourself.

That’s the best way I can explain it.

“It was tough,” Aasman added about recovering at home. “Usually when you go home it feels good to be home. But I didn’t want to be at home, I wanted to be here with the team competing and getting ready for the playoffs.”

Aasman spent another month at home before returning to Everett two weeks ago. He’s been practicing with the team on a limited basis since returning to town, and

Plus, teams can plug holes by simply opening their wallets, without costing any assets.

Houston signed Josh Smith after he was waived by Detroit, Amare Stoudemire is headed to the Mavericks once he clears waivers, and other veterans could be bought out and become free agents after the deadline.

One of the most intriguing moves could involve Ray Allen, who will have contending suitors if he opts to play after sitting out all season.

The teams most motivated to deal might be the disappointing ones. Brooklyn probably can’t find a taker for Deron Williams with all his injuries and dollars left on the $98.5 million contract he signed in 2012, but was close to moving Brook Lopez earlier this season. Denver’s rocky season should have contenders calling to inquire about Arron Afflalo, Ty Lawson or Wilson Chandler.

The right move can help someone surge through spring. The wrong one could mean an early start on summer.

Don’t count on top stars changing teams — none has at the deadline since Utah surprisingly sent Williams to the Nets on the eve of the 2011 one. Teams more likely trade at this point to clear cap space for the summer, which is why the New York Knicks could seek a deal for Jose Calderon after already shipping out guards J.R. Smith and Iman Shumpert.

Cleveland acquired them and, along with getting Timofey Mozgov from Denver in a separate deal, perhaps proved the best moves for this season were already made.

Dallas acted quickly to acquire Rajon Rondo from Boston in December, not long before Memphis capitalized on the Celtics’ youth movement to deal for Jeff Green.

Tuesday he was cleared to resume full contact. He’s shed his no-contact jersey, and it’s possible he’ll be back for this weekend’s three-in-three, though that’s not certain yet.

“I feel good,” Aasman said. “I’m a little more tired than I would be, but it’s coming back pretty quick.”

Aasman’s return comes at a convenient time for the Tips. Everett has just 22 players on its roster, so there isn’t much leeway for injuries. Center Matt Fonteyne has been out recently because of a lower-body injury, and with Aasman also out it’s meant the Tips haven’t had any healthy scratches.

“It’s nice (having Aasman nearly back) just on a personal level because he’s a great kid,” Everett coach Kevin Constantine said. “The idea he can get himself going again and maybe be a part of what we’re doing down the stretch and in the playoffs

is really fun for him. And from a team standpoint we have a pretty thin roster. We played short a guy recently, and in every game recently we’ve had just enough to dress a full lineup. Just getting a body back for what we’re going to need down the stretch as a team is important, too. So for a couple reasons it’s good to have him back.”

And Aasman is ready to jump back into the fray.

“I feel ready,” Aasman said. “At first I thought it would take a while. It’s been two weeks, but now I feel really good and I’m ready to get back to playing.

“This is the most important time of the year and I want to be a big part of that and hopefully help get this team to where it needs to be.”

MAKE THIS NOW

BILL HOGAN / CHICAGO TRIBUNE

The key to great sunshine bars is fresh grapefruit.

Key to grapefruit squares?

The zest!

G

rapefruit, love child of an orange/pomelo hookup, flaunts one parent’s sunny nature and the other’s thick-skinned, rotund ways. The hybrid is all sunny bright, easy-peel, sweet and sour cheer. That’s how it rolls.

And yet, I contrived to press grapefruit flat, to square it off into lemon-bar portability.

I squeezed and mixed and baked. Yielding something sweet, soured by a whiff of fruitcake. In another word: bad.

After many yellow squares and many square yellow leftovers, I was visited by a revelation. Fresh grapefruit: good. Cooked grapefruit: bad.

So I reformatted my bars, confining grapefruit to a fresh zest finish. Which worked.

The bars sliced up lemon bold, grapefruit fresh, sunshine sweet.

Sunshine bars 3 cups sugar Finely grated zest of 3 grapefruits 2 cups flour 1 pinch salt 12 tablespoons (11⁄2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut up 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, strained (from about 8 lemons) 6 eggs Buzz: Measure sugar into the food processor. Drop in grapefruit zest. Buzz to a fine grapefruit-scented powder, about 1 minute. Scoop 1⁄4 cup scented sugar into a small bowl; set aside. Scoop 21⁄4 cups scented sugar into a large mixing bowl; set aside.

Combine: Measure 11⁄2 cups flour and the salt into the remaining 1⁄2 cup scented sugar in the food processor.

Buzz to combine. Drop in butter. Pulse many times. Mixture will look like fine sand, then coarse sand, then big clumps.

Pat: Dump clumps into a 13-by-9inch baking pan. Pat into the bottom of the pan. Slide into a 325-degree oven and bake until golden, about 25 minutes.

Whisk: Meanwhile, whisk remaining 1⁄2 cup flour into the scented sugar in the large mixing bowl. Whisk in juice. Whisk in eggs.

Bake: When pastry is golden, lower oven temperature to 300 degrees.

Pour egg mixture over pastry and bake until center is just set, about 30 minutes. Pull pan out of oven.

Food, as love language A meal can be a bonding experience between family and friends — just make sure it’s a gift worth giving

S

hortly after our second son was born my friend brought us a batch of the most amazing homemade chicken sausage patties. The gift of food when you have a newborn is tremendously helpful.

What made this particular gift especially sweet was the thought she took in choosing the recipe. When I asked her later for the recipe she added that she wanted to make us something reflective of the way my husband and I prefer to eat.

Her thoughtful choice of postpartum nourishment was a beautiful way to demonstrate affection for our family while respecting our need for a healthy meal.

The tradition of showing

love with food is deeply woven into the fabric of our culture.

Advertising images regularly depict families bonding while gathered around a table filled with favorite foods. The beloved mothers of the 1950s and ’60s sitcoms woke up early to put an abundant hot breakfast on the table. In the afternoon they welcomed their children home from school with plates of warm cookies and frosty glasses of milk.

These food-centric images influence our relationship with showing love to our family and friends. I love thinking of the kitchen as the heart of a home.

Studies show tremendous benefits to families who regularly share meals. My dream is for

the food to show respect for their loved ones’ health and well-being as well as communicate affection.

At this point in my life, feeding my loved ones with food that is both delicious and nutritious is a no brainer. I have found that food high in fat and calories forces our bodies to spend more energy dealing with the extra junk, leaving us tired and feeling gross.

I want my family and friends to be around for a long time.

When planning a meal, I choose foods that will nourish and fuel them. I pay special attention to the natural colors, textures and flavors of each ingredient and let them shine as much as possible.

ROSE McAVOY Next time you plan a meal think of it as a message of both affection and respect. Choose brightly colored fruits and vegetables and combine with nourishing proteins. You can whip something up quickly or pick something with many steps and lose yourself in the process. By sharing lovingly created, respectful meals, we are doing our part to ensure our families and friends will be lively and present for many years to come.

Sweet potato and kale chicken patties are a healthy and delicious meal.

The Washington Post

Making yogurt isn’t cooking. Not really. It’s more like conjuring spirits: You create the conditions that summon mysterious creatures, invisible to the naked eye, to do all the real work.

In the case of yogurt, the “creatures” are good bacteria, or “live, active cultures” or, to use their trendier handle of late, probiotics. Whatever you call them, the lactic acid bacteria are the kitchen grunts, transforming milk into thick, tangy yogurt.

Puzzles, 4

Making yogurt is easier than cooking, at least once you grasp its unique demands. Perhaps due to its ubiquity, yogurt can be created in numerous ways, some requiring sophisticated equipment and others needing little more than what was available to the medieval Turk: milk, lactic acid bacteria and a simple container for the two ingredients to do their thing.

These days, the basic process involves heating milk (whole, low-fat or nonfat are fine, although the lower the fat, the thinner the yogurt) to 180 See YOGURT, Page D2

For basketball players, March means madness.

For chefs and cookbook enthusiasts, February is the month.

The New York City-based food blog, Food52, started the annual Piglet Tournament of Cookbooks in 2010 and it has the feel of the annual March Madness college basketball tournament — except these Cinderellas are cookbooks.

The blog takes 16 cookbooks from the previous year and has them square off in a mano-emano, bracket-style tournament.

Winners are chosen by a panel of judges who hail from different corners of the food and media world. Each matchup has a judge cook from both books and then deliver a verdict. The winning book advances — the other is cooked — until there’s a winner.

Last year, Louisa Shafia’s “The New Persian Kitchen” edged out “Roberta’s Cookbook” for the crown.

This year the list of books includes “A Boat, A Whale, & A Walrus” by Seattle chef Renee Erickson. In the first round, Erickson’s book takes on Jody Williams’ “Buvette: The Pleasure

Emily Gould, author of the novel “Friendship,” will be the judge.

Other cookbooks in this year’s tournament include Mimi Thorisson’s “A Kitchen in France,” Gabrielle Hamilton’s “Prune,” and Maria Elia’s “Smashing Plates.” For a full list of the books, visit food52.com/the-piglet/2015.

This year’s panel of judges include food critics, chefs and Food Network stars, including Iron Chef Alexandra Guarnaschelli and The New Yorker columnist Bill Buford.

NOURISH | Ellie Krieger

Bright and bold, a salad for the season S

alad probably is not the first thing that comes to mind when you are planning a winter meal. Cold weather calls for hearty, belly-warming soups, stews and casseroles, of course.

But to accompany those stickto-your-ribs dishes, there is no better match than a salad made with seasonal produce — one that provides crisp, bright contrast and has substance enough to stand up to them.

This salad is a quintessential example, a combination of bold, fresh tastes and colors that come together as a perfect foil for a hot one-pot main course. The thinly sliced fennel at its base is cool and refreshing, but it is not shy like a tender spring lettuce.

Rather, it provides a definitive anise flavor and a big crunch that

plays off the sweet-tart juicy citrus, one of the season’s produce highlights.

This time of year, oranges are plump and perfect, and there is a remarkable variety to choose from. If you can find them, get blood oranges, whose flesh has a stunning red hue and a generous pucker. Cara Cara navel oranges, a bit sweeter and gloriously pink inside, are also a special treat.

If neither of those is available, regular old navel oranges work just as well.

Salty olives and slices of red onion add punches of contrasting flavor, and a citrus vinaigrette ties it all together. Pair this salad with hearty Mediterranean-style stews, soups, bakes and braises, and it will brighten your day as much as the hot dish warms it.

segments, reserving both. (There should be about 2 tablespoons of juice.)

Combine the orange segments in a large bowl with the fennel, olives and red onion, tossing to incorporate.

Whisk together the reserved orange juice, the oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a liquid measuring cup to form an emulsified dressing. Pour over the salad and toss gently to coat.

Garnish with the reserved fennel fronds. Serve right away.

degrees, cooling it to around 115 degrees, adding a starter to the warmed milk, pouring the cultured milk into jars and placing the jars in an incubator to ferment over several hours.

Let’s get one thing out of the way first: No matter what a recipe calls for, you don’t need to sterilize your jars, lids, spoons, saucepans, pitchers or other tools by boiling them in water. You can, instead, just wash your equipment with soap and hot water. That will shave valuable minutes off the yogurt-making process.

My first attempt at yogurt was something of a disaster, the result of sheer hubris. As I waited for the heated whole milk to drop into the necessary fermentation zone — between 104 and 120 degrees

1 teaspoon oil 1 small bunch (1½ ounces) of green onions, minced (about ½ cup) 1 1-pound sweet potato, peeled and diced into tiny pieces (about 3 cups) 1 teaspoon Kosher salt (divided) 1 medium (1⁄2 -pound) green apple, minced (about 1 cup) 3 loose cups (3 ounces) of finely chopped kale, (leaves only) 2 pounds lean ground chicken 2 large eggs ¼ cup whole wheat flour 1 teaspoon minced garlic (about 2 cloves) ½ teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed lightly 1 tablespoon coarse deli mustard 1 tablespoon minced sage leaves Make sure the first six ingredients are prepared before beginning to cook.

Warm oil in a large skillet over medium high heat add green onions and cook until tender (about 2 minutes). Add the sweet potatoes and season with a couple pinches of the pre-measured salt. Sauté for 5 minutes, or until the potatoes are just barely tender. Stir frequently. When cooked, scoop the potato mixture into a medium bowl. Set the potatoes aside and return the pan to the heat.

To the skillet, add the diced apples and a pinch of the pre-measured salt. Sauté for 3 minutes. Add kale and cook until wilted (about 2 to 3 minutes). Add the cooked ingredients to the sweet potato mixture and set aside to cool.

In a large mixing bowl (with room for your hands) combine the chicken with the eggs, flour, garlic, fennel seeds, mustard, sage, and remaining salt. Fold the ingredients together a few times with a fork or your hands. Add the cooled sweet potato mix and continue to fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly distributed. Do not over mix (the meat will turn mushy).

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

After the mixture has rested, divide the chicken into 14 (4-ounce) portions then flatten each portion into 1-inch thick patties.

For best results, cook these in a single layer in a well-oiled castiron pan over medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side. For results that are nearly as good, cook the patties in a single layer in an oil misted large non-stick pan. Cook about 6 minutes per side, flip when a golden crust has formed. For either method: Your patties should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees. If they have a dark crust on each side but are not yet cooked in the center, or you are unsure, finish the patties on a sheet pan in a 350-degree oven for about 10 minutes or until fully cooked.

Nothing-plain-aboutit Bulgarian yogurt 1 quart whole, low-fat or nonfat milk 1 packet (.04 ounces) Bulgarian yogurt starter (may substitute 1 tablespoon room-temperature cultured yogurt) You will need an insulated container or yogurt maker to incubate the cultured milk; the directions below include information for each. You can use a cooler or a Thermos, or you can buy a yogurt maker online at retailers such as Amazon or Cultures for Health. You also need a properly calibrated thermometer for the accurate measurement of milk temperatures, and enough glass jars or containers to hold 1 quart of yogurt total.

Whole, low-fat or nonfat milk may be used in this recipe, but don’t use alternative milks, such as soy or almond, which require a different technique.

First make sure to clean all equipment with dish soap and hot water. You do not need to

Fahrenheit, depending on your information source — I thought I could outsmart the process. Because I was using semi-cold Brown Cow yogurt as my starter, I decided I should add it before the milk reached the target range, lest the culture cool the liquid to an undesirable temperature. There was just one problem with my logic: High heat will kill your live, active cultures. My first batch was a watery mess, closer to sour milk than yogurt.

I learned another lesson from that first test: Don’t waste time by letting the heated milk cool on its own. Without assistance, the milk takes forever to drop to 115 degrees. Just place the saucepan in a sink filled with a few inches of ice water; the milk will cool in minutes, not an hour.

As part of the process to attain yogurt sensei status, I worked

sterilize the equipment. Make sure to heat your jars and/or choice of incubator before placing the cultured milk in them.

Make ahead: The cultured milk needs to sit at room temperature for at least 5 hours and up to 24 hours. The finished yogurt needs to sit at room temperature for 2 hours, then in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours before using. It can be stored for up to 1 month.

This creamy, somewhat tart European-style yogurt calls for a Bulgarian heirloom starter, available at Cultures for Health for $12.99 for two freeze-dried packets; each one makes 1 quart of yogurt. The resulting yogurt can then be reused indefinitely as a starter for future batches.

(Alternatively, you can use a commercial yogurt from the grocery store. Just make sure it contains live active cultures.)

Fill a sink or a container large enough to hold a saucepan with a few inches of ice water.

Pour the milk into a medium saucepan with a thermometer clipped to the side, positioning

with three types of incubators to determine whether any one would outperform the others.

Among the three incubators, the yogurt maker held its temperature the best, as you might expect from a machine with a heating element.

The other important variable here is the starter. As mentioned earlier, I initially used Brown Cow yogurt as a starter: a quarter-cup of the stuff to ferment a quart of whole milk. Brown Cow includes both L. bulgaricus and S. thermophilus, the cultures required by law for real yogurt, and also features two other probiotic cultures to promote health.

I also bought Greek and Bulgarian heirloom starters, each of which sells for $12.99 for two packets at Cultures for Health (www.culturesforhealth.com).

its top away from the hot metal.

Gradually heat the milk over medium heat to 180 degrees, stirring occasionally with a wooden or metal spoon. Keep the milk at a steady 180 degrees for 15 minutes, stirring frequently and adjusting the heat as needed, to evaporate some of the milk’s liquid. You’ll notice light bubbling and a small decrease in the level of milk.

Transfer the saucepan to the ice-water bath (with the thermometer still attached), making sure the water doesn’t spill over the sides of the saucepan. Stir the milk occasionally as it cools.

Once the milk temperature drops to 120 degrees, transfer the saucepan to the counter to cool further.

Once the milk reaches 115 degrees, transfer 1 cup of it into a small bowl, along with the starter; whisk thoroughly until well incorporated. Immediately return the cultured milk mixture to the remaining warm milk in the saucepan, whisking so the cultures are distributed evenly.

For a yogurt maker: Follow the manufacturer’s directions for incubating the cultured milk.

For a Thermos: Warm the inside of the Thermos with hot water, then let it drip dry. Transfer the warm cultured milk to a pitcher or large liquid measuring cup with a spout. Pour the milk into the Thermos, then seal the container and place it in a warm spot. Let it sit at room temperature, undisturbed, for at least

5 hours. At that point, check to see whether the mixture has set to form yogurt. If not, reseal the container and let it sit at room temperature, undisturbed, for up to 12 hours, checking every hour. For yogurt that is more tart, leave the milk in the Thermos longer, up to 24 hours.

Transfer the yogurt to whatever jars you’re using. Seal them and let them stand at room temperature for 2 hours.

Then transfer the the jars to the refrigerator to rest for at least 6 hours before serving.

For an insulated cooler: Fill it with a few inches of water heated to between 110 and 115 degrees; add warm or cool water to reach the desired temperature.

Transfer the warm cultured milk to a pitcher or large liquid measuring cup with a spout.

Pour the milk into the jar(s), then seal them and place in the warm water. Close/cover the cooler; let it sit, undisturbed, in a warm spot for at least 5 hours. At that point, check to see whether the mixture has set to form yogurt. If not, reseal the container and let it sit at room temperature, undisturbed, for up to 12 hours, checking every hour. For yogurt that is more tart, leave the milk in the cooler longer, up to 24 hours.

Transfer the jars of yogurt to the counter; let them sit at room temperature for 2 hours. Then refrigerate them for at least 6 hours before serving.

GRANDPARENTING

Grandmother is on the road to alcoholism

By Tom and Dee Hardie and Key Kidder Dear Grandparenting: I am telling you this because my mother (the grandmother of my two children) reads your column faithfully.

She might listen to you. I am getting nowhere with her.

Mom did just fine until Dad died four years ago. While he was alive, she was a terrific grandmother. He handled their finances. She didn’t have much sense about money.

She took out a home equity loan and frittered it away on a new Cadillac she didn’t need and two or three vacations each year with other widows to try and put his death out of her mind I suppose.

Mom sort of let everything slide and starting drinking earlier in the day around lunch. She wound up having to sell the house she wanted to stay in until she died. The “house that holds all my wonderful memories” she called it.

That’s how she started down the road to becoming an old alcoholic.

I say that without really knowing if she is or isn’t, but she seems out of it half the time. My two children have noticed the change in their grandmother. I can tell by how they

look at her now, like she is damaged goods or something. When I bring up drinking, Mom tells me she’s just tired and drinks no more than before Dad died. What’s my best move now? — Jay Hall, Albion, Michigan Dear Jay: On those occasions when substance abuse issues enter the narrative in our column, it’s typically in connection to grandchildren. But according to one comprehensive study based on government data, substance use disorders among adults 50 and older will afflict nearly six million individuals by 2020, in just five short years. That’s a while lot of addled grandparents in need of help.

Some grandparents begin to metabolize substances differently as they age. Because the change is often gradual, it can creep up on you. One glass of wine can have the impact of several. Retirement is often a culprit too. A National Institutes of Health 10-year study found that the “economic and social nature” surrounding retirement had more impact the actual fact of retirement itself. The trouble starts when grandparents become bored or lose their purpose. Others will drink or self-medicate because

Sound familiar?

After decades of taking care of themselves and others, seniors can be quick to deny they have lost control. Diagnosis can be difficult. Many signs of chemical dependency like disorientation or memory loss are normal signs of aging. A trusted professional like her physician may be best equipped to open this discussion and get your mother’s attention without unduly alarming her.

Think up a reason to schedule an appointment, talk to her doctor beforehand, and then sit in.

Colleague’s texts suggest she has more in mind than work Dear Abby: My husband is a handsome executive who works out of town.

I’m a professional with a responsible job that limits my ability to travel.

I needed to borrow his phone recently and noticed that one of his colleagues has been texting him after hours. She asks if he has traveled safely, tells him she misses him, how much she enjoys working with him — all with romantic emoticons. I’m concerned that the flattery and emoticons indicate she wants more than a work-based relationship. She’s married with kids. How should I approach this? — Worried Wife In Kentucky Dear Worried Wife: Because there have been more than one of these flirtatious, unbusinesslike communications, assume that your husband hasn’t discouraged them. Confront him. Tell him you feel what she’s doing is a threat to your marriage, and you want it stopped. But before you do, make copies of the texts so you can confront the woman with them if she doesn’t stop.

Dear Abby: Is it OK for a man to talk on his cellphone at the urinal in a public restroom, or for a woman to talk on the phone while using the toilet in one of the stalls?

Also, please remind everyone to wash their hands after using the restroom. — Russell In Richland, Wash.

Dear Russell: I can think of few things more unpleasant than conversing with someone with the sound of “running water” (or worse) in the background and toilets flushing. Why anyone would do this is beyond me. It’s very rude.

And, while I can remind people about hand-washing until the cows come home, RIP HAYWIRE

North opened 2NT, upgrading his hand because of his tens. He supported South’s spades next, and South bid slam. When West led a club, South was reluctant to lose a finesse that might guarantee defeat. He took dummy’s ace and led the queen, ruffing when East played low.

Dear Abby: I grew up in the ’90s in a neighborhood where the kids respected their neighbors. I now live in a different state and, obviously, a different era. Neighborhood kids constantly use my steep driveway to ride their bicycles, tricycles and scooters without asking permission.

Am I right in thinking this is rude, because in my opinion, they are trespassing? Not only could I be held responsible if one of them gets hurt on my property, but they also are extremely loud and do this while my children are trying to nap. They have been asked to stop, and I have threatened to talk to their parents, even though I don’t know where they live. What do I do? — Frustrated Homeowner Dear Frustrated: Discuss this with your insurance broker. You are correct that if one of the children gets hurt on your property you could be liable. You also need to be more proactive than you have been. Tell the kids they are disturbing your children who are trying to nap, and if the kids don’t go away, find out where they live and talk to the other parents. It would be cheaper than having to install a gate in front of your driveway.

Did you know Eddie Van Halen is a Dutch immigrant?

WASHINGTON — For Eddie Van Halen, making music is all about having good ears and a talent for experimenting with guitars and amps to create just the right sound.

Now 60, Van Halen told The Associated Press he’s ready to get back on the road. His band recorded a live album — its first with founding singer David Lee Roth — in 2013, and it’s waiting for a release date.

On Thursday, Eddie Van Halen is visiting the Smithsonian for a soldout event to donate some instruments to the National

CHRIS PIZZELLO / INVISION

Eddie Van Halen

Museum of American History and to discuss making music and his innovative guitar and amp designs. He even holds patents on some inventions.

Van Halen, it turns out,

is a Dutch immigrant born in Amsterdam who came to the U.S. when he was 7.

Many people just think he was born a rock star, he says.

It wasn’t so easy, though, for him and his brother and bandmate Alex. Their family immigrated to California in 1962, drawn by the “land of opportunity.” Their father was a musician who also worked as a janitor, while their Indonesian-born mother was a maid. The Van Halens shared a house with three other families.

“We showed up here with the equivalent of $50 and a piano,” Van Halen said.

“We came halfway around the world without money, without a set job, no place to live and couldn’t even speak the language.

“What saved us was my father being a musician and slowly meeting other musicians and gigging on weekends, everything from weddings to you-name-it to make money.”

Van Halen went on to help lead one of the most popular rock bands of the 1980s, known for hits including “Jump” and “Why Can’t This Be Love.”

Talk of a ‘Thelma & Louise’ anniversary tour

Franco to star in JFK TV series

NEW YORK — Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon may be heading out on the road again — a quartercentury after the release of their Oscar-winning film “Thelma & Louise.”

Davis says she and Sarandon are currently hashing out ways to mark the 25th anniversary of the film about a girls’ road trip gone bad.

“There’s still so much affection for the movie and we loved it,” Davis says. “It seems like there should be some girl power celebrating going on.”

Davis and Sarandon, who still remain good friends, came up with the idea. Davis says now they’re talking over how to do it, focusing on a possible “live show or a tour.” She

Mazda of Everett HAS MOVED! Stop by our new location and let us show our thanks to you, our loyal customers!

says they’re still trying to figure out “what’s possible” but says “people seem to like the idea.”

Susan Davis is Sarandon currently starring in her first season of ABC’s “Grey’s Anatomy,” which airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET. She plays the hard-edged Dr. Nicole Herman, who, along with being an ace surgeon is suffering what she believes to be a fatal brain tumor.

She is also prepping for her new Bentonville Film Festival, which will push for more women and diversity in film. The competition, which kicks off May 5 in the Arkansas city, says it’s the first ever film festival to offer winners guaranteed distribution.

The actress also founded the Geena Davis Institute on Gender in Media, a research-based

organization that promotes more diverse female characters in entertainment.

“There certainly are still great roles that come along that we see women in,” says Davis, “but we’re not seeing a wealth of female characters and we’re not seeing films that are populated by women.”

She says she hopes the “Thelma & Louise” anniversary will serve as a reminder “that it’s possible to make a movie that’s a cultural landmark starring women.”

Davis says she enjoys her television gig but wouldn’t mind another juicy film role. “If it was a great part and it was shooting in China I’d be doing it. I’d find a way,” but adds, only if it is a really good role. “I’ve had such great parts and I’m a little fussy and haven’t run out of money yet so I like to wait until the really good things come along.”

James Franco will star in the smallscreen adaptation of Stephen King’s James Franco time-travel novel about President John F. Kennedy’s assassination.

Franco’s role in the nine-hour series based on King’s “11/22/63” was announced Thursday by Hulu and Warner Bros.

Television.

Franco will play a high school teacher who returns to 1963 to try to prevent Kennedy’s shooting in Dallas. Hulu Originals, which announced the “11/22/63” project last September, hasn’t set a release date.
