$100,000 in gems stolen A convicted felon was arrested on suspicion of breaking into the traveling dealer’s car and stealing his life savings.

By Eric Stevick and Diana Hefley Herald Writers

EVERETT — At 79, the traveling gem dealer still works his territory.

His beat brought the Oregon man to Everett in January.

And it was at a motel off 112th

Street SE where he lost his life savings.

His fortune, he told police, was invested in a small box containing diamonds, rubies and sapphires. Their estimated value is $100,000 and they were not insured, according to court papers.

A homeless man accused of

stealing the gems is now locked up in the Snohomish County Jail.

His bail was set at $25,000 on Thursday.

“At this point in time, we are still working this case to recover more,” Everett police officer Aaron Snell said. “A lot of time and effort has gone into the investigation.”

So far, one ruby has been recovered.

Everett detectives arrested Michael M. Fuller, 26, for

investigation of burglary, theft and stealing a car. He already was in the jail on burglary and theft allegations out of Lynnwood where he is accused of breaking into lockers at the city’s recreation center in January.

The Extended Stay America hotel break-in occurred on the morning of Jan. 17. The gem dealer placed the jewels in his rental car and returned to his See GEMS, Page A2

EVERETT — As usual this time of year in the Northwest, gas prices are going up and likely will continue to climb for at least a few months, but they are still well below where they were this time last year.

Gas prices in Washington bottomed out at about $2.12 a

gallon earlier this month. On Thursday, they were up to $2.39 across the state and $2.51 in the Seattle market, which includes Everett, according to the website Gasbuddy.com.

The last independent hospital in the county is again mulling a partnership to allow it to be operated by another organization.

ARLINGTON — Talks between Cascade Valley Hospital and PeaceHealth for a business partnership unexpectedly broke off last summer.

Now the Arlington hospital, the last independent one in the county, is restarting talks with three medical groups to see if a new business deal can be made.

The hospital is talking to UW Medicine, Providence Health & Services and, once again, PeaceHealth, said Clark Jones, Cascade’s chief executive.

“Right now, we’re just asking for what their thoughts might be,” Jones said. Detailed written responses are due by March 2. “If we found something attractive to us, then we may go forward with one or more for a formal proposal,” Jones said. That step could come by late spring.

He said the agreement could be similar to one made by the former Stevens Hospital in Edmonds, which approved a lease of that building by Swedish, a Seattle-based medical group.

If the Cascade board agreed to a similar deal, it would allow the Arlington hospital’s taxing district to continue to own the building and other assets but be operated by another organization, Jones said.

The tax-supported hospital did better financially last year than in other recent years, making a small profit, Jones said. That’s due to an improved economy and more people getting health care at the hospital or its clinics, he said. Medical care is more widely available because of the federal requirement for everyone to have health insurance.

The move to have a business partnership with a larger health care organization isn’t driven by failing finances at Cascade, he said. It’s the industry economics of medical groups joining to together to provide services.

Prices are rising after steady declines, but they’ll still be low

Vanilla Ice arrested for alleged burglary The Washington Post Reality star and ’90s rapper Vanilla Ice (born Robert Matthew Van Winkle) was arrested in Florida for alleged home burglary, police confirmed Wednesday.

According to a statement from the Lantana Police Department, several

Secondhand watch resold for $35,000 Associated Press PHOENIX — A watch collector spotted a rare Swiss timepiece in a Phoenix secondhand store, bought it on sale for $5.99 and then sold it for $35,000.

Zach Norris said he went to a Goodwill store in January to look for a golf cart but took some time to peruse the watch section.

It proved to be time well-spent.

Norris said he was excited when he recognized the 1959 Jaeger-LeCoultre diving watch, he told KTVK-TV. “I’ve found some stuff in the past that I have been really excited about and stoked, but this is one of those things you’re like, ‘One day, one day it will happen,’ and it happened for me,” Norris told the TV station.

Norris says the proceeds will help pay for his wedding.

“We’re happy for him,” Goodwill spokeswoman Summer Dunham said.

household items — furniture, a pool heater, bicycles — were stolen from a Palm Beach County residence in foreclosure.

(Apparently a vacant one; the police date the burglary occurring sometime between December 2014 and this month.) Police got a search warrant and found several of the stolen items in

a home nearby, which is being renovated by Van Winkle.

“During the investigation, it was determined Robert Matthew Van Winkle played a role in the burglary and theft,” the release stated.

Van Winkle was taken into custody, where he was charged with burglary residence and grand theft.

CAESAREA, Israel — Israel on Wednesday unveiled the largest collection of medieval gold coins ever found in the country, accidentally discovered by amateur divers and dating back about a thousand years.

The find was made two weeks ago near the Israeli port city of Caesarea and consists of some 2,000 coins, weighing about 13 pounds, the Israel Antiquities Authority said.

The coins were likely swept up in recent storms, said Kobi Sharvit, director of the authority’s marine archaeology unit, adding that they provided

the rapper’s little-known passion for renovating and flipping houses. Its success prompted a spin-off, “Vanilla Ice Goes Amish,” set in Pennsylvania Dutch country.

A representative for DIY Network did not answer questions about whether the house in question is involved with the show.

ARIEL SCHALIT / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Marine archeologists, using metal detectors, then found the larger haul with coins of various denominations, dimensions and weight. The divers handed over all the coins.

Sharvit said they

probably came from a boat that sank on its way to deliver tax money to Egypt or from a merchant ship trading among Mediterranean coastal cities.

He said archeologists hope further excavations at the site of the find will make it possible “to supplement our understanding of the entire archaeological context, and thus answer the many questions that still remain unanswered about the treasure.”

Robert Kool, the Israel Antiquities Authority’s curator of coins, said the find was in excellent condition. The coins did not require any cleaning or conservation despite having been at the bottom of the sea for about

a millennium.

“Gold is a noble metal and is not affected by air or water,” he said. “Several of the coins that were found in the assemblage were bent and exhibit teeth and bite marks, evidence they were ‘physically’ inspected by their owners or the merchants.”

The earliest coin exposed in the treasure was a quarter dinar minted in Palermo, Sicily, in the second half of the 9th century.

Most of the coins, though, appear to have belonged to the Fatimid caliphs Al-?akim and his son Al-?ahir and minted later. The Fatimid kingdom ruled Northern Africa, beginning in the 10th century.

The surgery comes nearly three weeks after Whitney Houston’s daughter was found face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub of her Georgia home.

Brown’s family has said she’s “fighting for her life” at Emory University Hospital. A police investigation is ongoing and few details on her condition have been released.

Bobbi Kristina is the only daughter of singers Bobby Brown and Houston.

Houston was found facedown and unresponsive in about a foot of water in a bathtub in the Beverly

Hilton hotel on Feb. 11, 2012, just before the Grammys. She later died, and authorities concluded she had accidentally drowned.

Investigators found a dozen prescription-drug bottles in the suite and listed heart disease and cocaine use as contributors to her death.

Bobbi Kristina’s partner, Nick Gordon, said in a statement through his lawyers Wednesday night that he “desperately” wants to see her. The 25-year-old Gordon said he is looking for permission from Bobbi Kristina’s family to visit her in the hospital.

Gordon said he has not tried to return to the hospital and risk a confrontation.

room to get the rest of his belongings.

While getting ready to go, he left his room to get coffee.

Detectives allege that’s when Fuller broke into the man’s room, perhaps using a master key he’d obtained to the hotel complex. It’s also possible the victim had left the door open.

Police reviewed video footage from that morning.

It showed a man walking into the hotel shortly before 8:15 a.m. Twenty minutes later, he is seen in the parking lot, pressing an unlock button on a automatic key fob while apparently looking for the car. Minutes later, he is then seen driving off in the rental car.

Photos taken from the surveillance video were circulated in a police bulletin.

Patrol officers identified Fuller as the man in the photographs.

Fuller is the suspect in another break-in at the hotel and allegedly had two emergency master key cards that could open any room, court papers said.

He was arrested in that case Jan. 19.

When Fuller was questioned, police recovered the missing master keys as well as 21 other keys on several rings. They also noticed an oval-shaped black and silver lock box sticking out from his jacket.

Inside was a case. After obtaining a search warrant,

Houston brought Gordon into her household as an orphan at 12, raising him and her daughter after divorcing Bobby Brown in 2007.

Relations between Gordon and some other family members soured last year: He remains subject to a protective order barring him from being within 200 feet of Bobbi Kristina’s aunt, Patricia Houston.

Bobbi Kristina became the sole inheritor of her mother’s estate when she died in 2012, and shortly thereafter, she and Gordon went public with their romantic relationship.

police found a ruby in the case. It matched the gem dealer’s description of the missing jewel.

In a bail hearing Thursday, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Cheryl Johnson argued that Fuller posed a flight risk in part because he could try to sell the gems and leave the area.

Police also haven’t been able to find the stolen rental car, Snell said.

It is described as a white 2015 Hyundai Sonata with California license plate 7GSH480.

Fuller is a convicted felony whose sticky fingers have landed him in trouble in the past. His last conviction arose from a burglary at his parents’ house in 2012. He stole jewelry from their bedroom to buy drugs.

Fuller persuaded a friend to pawn the bracelets because he was on “black list,” meaning pawn shop owners didn’t trust him and he was suspected of dealing in stolen property.

Fuller was admitted into drug court, but flunked out for breaking the rules, including skipping out on court-ordered drug testing. He was convicted of trafficking in stolen property and sentenced to nine months in jail.

That wasn’t the first time Fuller stole from his parents, court papers said.

He was convicted of stealing their car and pawning the stereo in 2009. He told police he arranged to trade the stereo for prescription pain pills.

OSO MUDSLIDE

Communities to be given Medal of Valor

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — The communities of Oso, Darrington and Arlington and the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe will receive one of the state’s highest honors next month for the heroism of residents and tribal members in response to the deadly Oso mudslide.

Gov. Jay Inslee will present them with the Medal of Valor in a joint session of the House and Senate set for 11 a.m. on March 18 — four days before the oneyear anniversary of the landslide that killed 43 people.

The communities and tribe are being recognized for “countless instances risking injury and death to save or recover victims of

the Oso landslide,” according to information provided by the Secretary of State’s office.

Recipients of the Medal of Valor are chosen by a committee of the governor, the president of the Senate, the speaker of the House of Representatives and the chief justice of the state Supreme Court, or their designees.

When panel members began

last year to consider awarding the communities and the tribe with the honor, they learned that under existing law only individuals are eligible to receive it.

On Thursday, that hurdle was nearly erased when the House approved Senate Bill 5035 to allow the Medal of Valor to be given to a group of people for efforts to save, or attempt to save,

another person’s life.

The bill, which passed the Senate last month, now goes to the governor for his signature.

Since its establishment in 2000, the Medal of Valor has been awarded to only eight people.

There has not been a recipient since 2007.

EVERETT — For the second time in two months, a convicted murderer with a history of mental illness is on the lam in Snohomish County.

Lowell Gene Lowe, 52, has failed to report to the state Department of Corrections as required after completing jail time Saturday. A warrant for his arrest was issued Wednesday, d e p a r t m e nt spokeswoman Norah West said.

Lowe also was included in Lowell Gene the weekly Lowe fugitive bulletin issued by the department’s Everett office.

Lowe earlier made headlines for failing to report in January. He was arrested about a month after he went missing.

Again, his case has been assigned to the Community Response Unit of corrections staff members and police who focus on difficult to find offenders, West said.

Corrections officers have been to Lowe’s last reported address, West said. She said she was not allowed to disclose the area of that address.

“We are actively looking,” she said.

Lowe is classified as a high risk to commit a new violent crime, she said. He served more than 10 years in state prison for a second-degree murder conviction. Since being freed in July 2013, Lowell has been jailed six times for violating conditions of his release.

He pleaded guilty to fatally stabbing his roommate, an Arlington man who had taken Lowe in to try to help him.

Lowe had been drinking and using methamphetamine and was off medication for paranoid schizophrenia when the killing happened.

Lowe is described as 5-foot-8 and 180 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.

OLYMPIA — Gov. Jay Inslee signed a supplemental budget Wednesday that allocates nearly $218 million in state and federal money for expenses including the deadly Oso mudslide and last summer’s wildfires.

at Westminster. The 17-year-old led two retrievers from Lake Stevens into and around the ring. Rutten took second place out of eight junior showmanship finalists, according to Best in Show Daily. He’ll receive a $5,000 scholarship from the Westminster Kennel Club.

JJ, a 15-inch beagle competing alongside the nation’s newly crowned top dog, received an award of merit. The award is given by judges when they feel there is an outstanding

dog in a breed that did not claim one of the “best of” rankings.

Sheri Berndt-Smith and Darrell Smith, of Snohomish, own the 2-year-old beagle. They made sure he was primped and pampered for the show. They plan to be back at Westminster with JJ in 2016.

This year’s top two beagles retired after the show, Berndt-Smith said. That puts JJ in a prime position to be a future top dog.

“He should be a very strong contender for winning it next year,” she said.

After this year’s competition, JJ ate his favorite filet mignon dinner but didn’t get a break from a rigorous training routine on the

treadmill. He is scheduled to compete at a dog show in Oregon this weekend.

Lura Dunn and David Kerschner, of Bothell, went to Westminster for the first time with their 6-year-old flat-coated retriever, Ronin.

“It was a nail-biter for us,” Dunn said. “He came real close to getting the best of breed.”

Ronin finished as a select dog for flat-coated retrievers.

“It’s almost like saying he’s the second-best male dog,” Dunn said.

Ronin was rewarded with french fries and a walk through New York’s Central Park. Like JJ, he is set to compete in Oregon this weekend.

believe that with nearly 52,000 students like Seattle has, districts can’t support their schools and communities in the same way a smaller district can.

Speakers at the hearing last week said the public doesn’t want the district to be split.

They contend two districts would cost more and likely be a worse at closing the achievement gap between kids from different ethnic and economic groups.

The bill would prevent any school district from enrolling more than 35,000 students. An independent panel would be assigned to figure out how to break up larger school districts. Seattle is the only one in the state that is large enough to be affected.

Pat Griffith of the League of Women Voters expressed concern about the bill, saying there is no public demand for the measure and there hasn’t even been a community conversation

about the idea.

“It takes away the voice of the voters,” Griffith said, adding that the idea would likely bring instability and controversy to the community.

Eden Mack of the Seattle Council of parent-teacherstudent organizations said parents are concerned that the idea would pit schools against one other.

Since the district is already overcrowded and underfunded, Mack urged the Legislature to focus on

fully funding basic education instead of messing with the Seattle district.

Dan Steele of the Washington State School Directors Association said the bill would set a dangerous precedent by having lawmakers in Olympia make decisions for the people of Seattle.

Stefan Blanford, a member of the Seattle School Board, said he believes the measure would likely worsen the district’s achievement gap.

ACLU sues Skagit Video examined in Pasco shooting hospital district

By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — The American Civil Liberties Union of Washington on Thursday sued a Skagit County hospital district and sent warning letters to three others in what it described as the start of a campaign to make sure public health care facilities are following the state’s abortion rights law.

The Reproductive Privacy Act, adopted by citizen initiative in 1991, prevents the state from interfering with a woman’s right to have an abortion. It requires the state to pay for voluntary abortions for low-income women, and says that if a public hospital provides maternity services it must also provide “substantially equivalent” abortion services.

At Skagit Valley Hospital — operated by the state’s third-biggest public hospital district, Skagit Regional Health — patients have been routinely referred to Planned Parenthood or other private clinics when they seek abortions, rather than provided such services on-site, the ACLU said.

The dispute boils down to whether such off-site referrals are substantially equivalent to the maternity care the hospital offers.

In an opinion on the topic in 2013, the Washington Attorney General’s Office expressed “no opinion on exactly how

OP

hospital districts may comply with this requirement, or what constitutes ‘substantially equivalent benefits, services, or information.”’

Skagit Valley Hospital performed 1,200 deliveries in 2012 — nearly three-quarters of all births in Skagit County — but never performs abortions by medication and rarely performs surgical abortions, the ACLU said.

In a phone call with reporters, two hospital district executives — Dr. Connie Davis, its chief medical officer, and Balisa Koetje, its chairwoman — said Skagit Regional Health follows the law, which specifies that private hospitals and clinics are not required to offer abortions, and that no person can be compelled to provide them.

They directed reporters to their written policy: “Skagit Regional Health permits its healthcare professionals to opt-out of participating in services that violate their conscience or values. In such circumstances, the hospital will use reasonable efforts to arrange for other healthcare professionals to deliver the care for the patient.”

They said that they do provide some onsite abortions, though they did not know how many or when the last one was.

The ACLU also sent letters to hospital districts in Jefferson County, Mason County and on Whidbey Island.

KENNEWICK — Authorities said Thursday they are still collecting video of the fatal police shooting of an unarmed Mexican man in Pasco, and they’re asking for patience as protests of the killing continue in the agricultural community.

Antonio ZambranoMontes, 35, was killed Feb. 10 after police say he threw rocks at cars and officers.

The shooting has sparked a series of protests and a call for a federal investigation. It is the fourth killing

by Pasco police in less than a year.

At a news conference Thursday, the spokesman for the regional special investigations unit probing the shooting said dash cam video from patrol cars and video from witnesses is being examined.

Kennewick police Sgt. Ken Lattin couldn’t say exactly how many videos authorities were looking at.

“The more information we have the better,” Lattin said.

The investigations unit

does not include officers from Pasco, in southeastern Washington. More than half of Pasco’s population is Hispanic.

Lattin said about 40 people have been interviewed, but only a few actually saw

Bill to abolish death penalty idled Associated Press OLYMPIA — An effort to abolish the death penalty in Washington isn’t moving forward in the Legislature this year.

House Bill 1739, which received a public hearing

this week, was scheduled for a vote in the House Judiciary Committee on Thursday, but it was not brought up for a vote on the last day before a key policy bill deadline. The chairwoman of the committee said she’s personally

supportive of the bill, but said that she didn’t think this was the right time to move forward with it.

The measure would have replaced capital punishment with life in prison, with no opportunity for parole.

Mr.

It also would have required those convicted to work in prison in order to pay restitution to victims’ families.

Last year, Gov. Jay Inslee issued a moratorium on capital punishment for as long as he’s in office.

the shooting.

Police said ZambranoMontes was throwing rocks that hit two officers and he refused to put down other stones. Protesters have said officers should have used less than lethal force to subdue him.

The probe into the shooting is likely to take months, and Lattin urged calm.

“We appreciate the patience of the public,” he said.

Lattin said investigators want to know more about the actions of ZambranoMontes, who authorities believe had been staying off and on at a local mission, in the hours and days leading up to the shooting.

His erratic behavior at a busy intersection needs to be better understood, Lattin said.

“The actions were not normal, not reasonable. So why?” he asked.

Astoria hopes to save historic Waldorf hotel

By Derrick Depledge The Daily Astorian

ASTORIA, Ore. — The Astoria City Council backed away Tuesday night from a library renovation plan that would demolish the old Waldorf Hotel and instead agreed to look at other options, such as building a new library with workforce housing at Heritage Square.

The City Council had decided last year on a $4.6 million renovation plan for the Astoria Public Library that involved the demolition of the vacant Waldorf.

But preservationists have fought to save the dilapidated hotel, previously known as the Merwyn, and newly elected city councilors have been open to alternatives.

Mayor Arline LaMear, a retired librarian who has supported the library’s expansion into the Waldorf, suggested at a council work session Tuesday night that the city look at building a new library with workforce housing in partnership with the private sector at Heritage Square.

A similar option had been floated a decade ago for Heritage Square.

The mayor cited as examples the SellwoodMoreland Library in

Portland, a mixed-use development with condominiums and commercial space, and the Hollywood Library in Portland, which has apartments and a coffee shop.

“To me, it’s a way of perhaps solving two problems,” LaMear said.

Councilor Drew Herzig, who had wanted the City Council to explore options to demolishing the Waldorf, praised LaMear for offering another approach.

The mayor has made library renovation a priority since she was first elected to the council in 2008, but she said last week that she did not want the decision on how to proceed to be personal.

“Nobody cares about this more than Mayor LaMear does. Nobody has been on this for as long as Mayor LaMear” has, Herzig said.

“If she’s willing to step back and say, ‘Maybe we need to go a different direction.’

I think that’s incredible on her part.”

Other councilors also welcomed LaMear’s proposal to separate the fates of the library and the Waldorf.

The library’s long-standing problems, which include aging infrastructure and a lack of accessibility for the disabled, have been overshadowed recently

by the attention on saving the hotel.

But in the course of a nearly two-hour discussion, councilors circled back to where they started and were unable to untangle the library and the Waldorf.

Councilors said they would also entertain an idea from Ted Osborn, the president of the Lower Columbia Preservation Society and a retired architect, to expand the library

into the basement and first floor of the Waldorf and use the upper floors of the hotel for housing.

The preservation society has led the campaign to save the Waldorf, which preservationists view as an example of Late Commercial with Renaissance detailing and an important component of the city’s historic downtown. The hotel, built in 1926, was closed for health and safety code violations in 1989.

“Sure you have to gut the library, you have to gut the Merwyn, but then you’ve got a lot of solid value there,” said Osborn, who told the council he has been drafting plans for a melded library and hotel.

LaMear said she has “grave doubts” but did not object to looking at Osborn’s idea.

Councilor Russ Warr initially warned that it would be a “real slap in the face” to the library board for the

SEATTLE — The cutterhead on Seattle’s troubled tunnel machine broke through the 20-footthick wall of a rescue pit at about noon Thursday.

council to step away from the library renovation plan.

The library board had recommended the renovation plan after extensive study and public feedback.

“My fear is that we’re going to get into a position where we’re not ever going to renovate the library or do anything with the Merwyn Hotel because it’s going to get so messed up that nobody’s going to want to touch it,” he said.

Yet Warr said he is interested in seeing Osborn’s idea for a blended library and hotel.

David Oser, who serves on the library board, said afterward that the library renovation plan does not have the necessary support from the community.

Several observers have complained that the renovation plan was crafted with the presumption that the Waldorf would be demolished and the library’s budget and staff would be not be increased, which at the time restricted the options available.

A new or renovated library will need both public and private money to succeed and financing would likely be difficult if the community is divided.

“It’s not going to happen unless the whole town is behind it,” Oser said.

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.

Theodore Clinton West

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 Norwegian Independence 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.

New dietary guidelines Sugary drinks are out; coffee, eggs and a bit more salt are back in.

Texas: Lesbian marriage SCOTT APPLEWHITE / ASSOCIATED PRESS

A variety of healthy fruits and vegetables are displayed for sale at a market in Washington.

CHARLIE NEIBERGALL / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Eggs for sale in a Des Moines, Iowa, grocery store.

specific recommendation for how much cholesterol — or eggs — a person may eat.

Watch the added sugar Added sugars should be around 200 calories a day — about the amount in one 16-ounce sugary drink, says the advisory committee, which is made up of doctors and nutritionists.

The recommendation is part of a larger push in recent years to help consumers isolate added sugars from naturally occurring ones like those in fruit and milk. Added sugars generally add empty calories to the diet.

Americans now get about 13 percent of their calories from added sugar, or 268 calories a day, the committee says. Older children, adolescents and young adults generally take in more. The committee recommends 10 percent, which is “a target within reach,” says Miriam Nelson, a Tufts University professor of nutrition who served on the panel.

Sugary drinks should be replaced with water instead of those with low-calorie sweeteners; there’s not enough evidence those drinks can help with weight loss, the committee advises.

A softer approach on salt Sodium adds up quickly. A turkey sandwich and a cup of soup can average about 2,200 milligrams.

That’s just under the committee’s recommendation of 2,300 milligrams a day for all people, even those most at risk for heart disease.

The 2010 dietary guidelines had recommended those at risk for heart disease limit sodium to 1,500 milligrams.

The new report said lowering to that amount can still be helpful for some. But the new advice follows a 2013 report by the Institute of Medicine that said there is no good evidence that eating less than 2,300 milligrams a day of sodium offers benefits.

With the average American eating more than 3,400 milligrams daily, the panel recommends at least trying to reduce sodium intake by 1,000 milligrams a day if the goals are unattainable.

Alice Lichtenstein, a member of the panel and a professor at Tufts University, said the new recommendation “puts the focus where it should be.”

Get sodium intake down, and fine-tune the numbers as more evidence comes in.

A hearty endorsement for coffee The report looks at caffeine for the first time, and says coffee is OK — even good for you.

The panel says there is strong evidence that 3 to 5 cups a day can be part of a healthy diet, and there’s consistent evidence that it’s even associated with reduced risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

The advice comes with some caveats — don’t add calories with cream, milk and added sugars. The report also advises against large-size energy drinks that are popular in the marketplace, and it recommends pregnant women limit caffeine to two cups of coffee a day.

Eat a plant-based diet The panel recommends eating more vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds. A plant-based diet is “more health promoting and is associated with less environmental impact” than the current U.S. diet, which is high in meat.

The report stops short of telling people not to eat meat, saying “no food groups need to be eliminated completely to improve sustainability outcomes.”

Overall, the panel advises a diet lower in red and processed meat, and in a footnote says lean meats can be part of a healthy diet. The North American Meat Institute criticized the report, saying the health benefits of lean meat should be “a headline, not a footnote.”

The meat recommendations in particular may prompt pushback from Capitol Hill. Last year, Congress noted the panel’s interest in the environment and directed Vilsack “to only include nutrition and dietary information, not extraneous factors” in final guidelines.

U.S reveals mission to retake Mosul The U.S. will provide support: Training, aircraft, intelligence and surveillance.

Associated Press WASHINGTON — The operation to retake Iraq’s second largest city from Islamic State militants will likely begin in April or May and will involve about 12 Iraqi brigades, or between 20,000 and 25,000 troops, a senior U.S. military official said Thursday.

Laying out details of the expected Mosul operation for the first time, the official from U.S. Central Command said five Iraqi Army brigades will soon go through coalition training in Iraq to prepare for the mission. Those five would make up the core fighting force that would launch the attack, but they would be supplemented by three smaller brigades serving as reserve forces, along with three Peshmerga brigades who would contain the Islamic State fighters from the north and west.

The Peshmerga are Kurdish

Giuliani questions Obama’s love of U.S. WASHINGTON — Democrats Thursday assailed former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani for questioning President Barack Obama’s love of country, and urged Republican presidential candidates to rebuke him for his comments. Giuliani said at a New York event Wednesday night, “I know this is a horrible thing to say, but I do not believe that the president loves America. He doesn’t love you. And he doesn’t love me. He wasn’t brought up the way you were brought up and I was brought up through love of this country,” said Giuliani. His comments were reported

by Politico and the New York Daily News. The Democratic National Committee chair said it’s time for Republican leaders to “stop this nonsense.”

Associated Press WASHINGTON — An extra cup or two of coffee may be OK after all. More eggs, too.

But you definitely need to drink less sugary soda. And, as always, don’t forget your vegetables.

Recommendations Thursday from a government advisory committee call for an environmentally friendly diet lower in red and processed meats.

But the panel would reverse previous guidance on limiting dietary cholesterol. And it says the caffeine in a few cups of coffee could actually be good for you.

The committee also is backing off stricter limits on salt, though it says Americans still get much too much. It’s recommending the first real limits on added sugar, saying that’s especially a problem for young people.

The Agriculture and Health and Human Services Departments will take those recommendations into account in writing final 2015 dietary guidelines by the end of the year. The guidelines affect nutritional patterns throughout the country — from federally subsidized school lunches to food package labels to your doctor’s advice.

Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack said “it is by no means over” with the release of the report. The government will take comments on the advice before distilling it — and possibly changing it — into final guidelines for consumers.

Even with the changes, the report sticks to the basic message of the previous guidelines in 2010: Eat more fruits and vegetables and whole grains; eat less saturated fats, salt and sugar.

Eggs are OK The report says dietary cholesterol now is “not considered a nutrient of concern for overconsumption.” This follows increasing medical research showing the amount of cholesterol in your bloodstream is more complicated than once thought.

The committee says available evidence “shows no appreciable relationship” between heart disease and how much dietary cholesterol you eat, but it still recommends eating less saturated fat. As in previous years, the report advises limiting saturated fats to 10 percent of total calories.

The panel doesn’t give a

forces from northern Iraq.

The official said there also would be a Mosul fighting force, largely made up of former Mosul police and tribal forces, who would have to be ready to go back into the city once the army units clear out the Islamic State fighters.

Included in the force would be a brigade of Iraqi counterterrorism forces who have been trained by U.S. special operations forces. The brigades include roughly 2,000 troops each.

Military leaders don’t often disclose as many details of an operation before it takes place, but in some cases it can have an impact on the enemy, trigger a reaction or even prompt some militants to flee before the assault begins.

The operation itself comes as no surprise to the Islamic State group. Iraqi leaders have for months made it publicly clear that they were planning an operation to retake Mosul and that they were eager to get started. In addition, U.S. officials had already acknowledged that they were beginning

preparations for the Mosul mission, including using airstrikes to shut down supply lines that the insurgents were using to get equipment or people in and out of the city.

Asked why U.S. Central Command was telegraphing the timeframe and details of the operation to the enemy, the official said it was important to highlight the effort the Iraqi security forces are putting into the mission and how committed they are to it.

The official said the U.S. will provide military support for the operation, including training, air support, intelligence and surveillance. The official said there has been no decision made yet on whether to send in some U.S. ground troops to help call in airstrikes.

That decision would be made by senior defense and military leaders and President Barack Obama.

Islamic State militants overtook Mosul last June, as the group marched across large sections of Iraq and Syria, sending Iraqi forces fleeing.

At this point, officials estimate

there are between 1,000 to 2,000 Islamic State insurgents in the city of Mosul.

Military leaders have been talking about retaking the city for some time, but they have said they won’t launch the operation until the Iraqi troops are ready.

The official said they wanted to retake Mosul in the spring, before the summer heat and the holiday month of Ramadan kick in.

“But by the same token, if they’re not ready, if the conditions are not set, if all the equipment they need is not physically there and they (aren’t) trained to a degree in which they will be successful, we have not closed the door on continuing to slide that to the right,” he said.

Under the plan, the approximately 3,200 Iraqi forces that have completed the training already or are going through it now would replace the five main brigades wherever thay are now, and those five units would then go through several weeks of final training before the Mosul operation begins.

Defying Texas’ long-standing ban on gay marriage, a lesbian couple wed in Austin after being granted a marriage license Thursday under a special court order because one of the women has cancer. Texas’ attorney general immediately appealed to the state Supreme Court, which later agreed to block other gay couples from obtaining marriage licenses but didn’t address the Austin marriage. Attorney General Ken Paxton said he considers their marriage void, but a court hasn’t ruled on that issue.

California: Parole delay A parole hearing Thursday for a Charles Manson follower has been postponed because of an allegation that he broke prison rules, a corrections spokesman said. Parole officials want to wait until the allegation against Robert Beausoleil is resolved before they consider his possible release. However, a hearing will be held no later than March 3, a state Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation official said. He said Beausoleil is accused of violating prison rules on Jan. 27, but he didn’t know which ones.

Virginia: Breast-feeding bill A bill to allow breast-feeding in public cleared the House of Delegates on Thursday and moved to the desk of Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who is expected to sign it into law. Under current law, women have the right to nurse their babies on state-owned property, but restaurants and other privately owned businesses that are open to the public may prohibit that on their premises. Under the new bill, mothers would be permitted to breast-feed anywhere they are “lawfully present.”

Connecticut: Coed frats Members and alumni of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity at Wesleyan University have filed a discrimination lawsuit against the school over a decision that requires all residential fraternities to become coed within three years. Wesleyan announced the policy in September after several highly publicized issues at fraternity houses, including allegations of sexual assault.

Delta Kappa Epsilon said Thursday it is seeking a temporary injunction in Superior Court after learning that students would not be given the option of housing at on-campus single-sex fraternities during the 2015-16 school year.

AROUND THE WORLD Afghanistan: Peace talks Pakistani, Afghan and Western officials said Thursday that Afghanistan’s Taliban movement is ready to engage in peace talks with the Afghan government, which could open the door to a diplomatic solution to end the Islamist insurgency that has gripped the nation for more than 13 years. The talks could start as early as next month, although it was unclear where they would be held, officials said. But diplomats said many obstacles lie in the way of achieving significant results.

Turkey: Training Syrians Turkey and the U.S. signed an accord Thursday to jointly train and equip thousands of Syrians over the next three years in a rare sign of cooperation between the NATO allies. But the document, which wasn’t made public, apparently doesn’t spell out whom the Syrians will be trained to fight. The two countries couldn’t agree whether the rebels will be trained to fight the Islamic State, the American priority, or the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad, Turkey’s preference, Turkish officials said.

Bosses appeal to dockworkers Associated Press Cargo companies have gone straight to West Coast dockworkers with what they call their “last, best and final” offer in a contract crisis that has choked off billions of dollars in international trade.

In a move very likely to upset union leaders who were negotiating behind closed doors under a media blackout, the employers distributed letters with the contract offer to rank-and-file longshoremen at ports from Washington state to Los Angeles.

At a marine terminal in Tacoma, foremen handed dockworkers the letter from the president of the association that represents companies that own, load and unload massive ships.

It detailed a third, comprehensive contract offer employers made Feb. 12 — more recently than has been publicly disclosed.

Employers appear to hope union members will support the offer and then pressure their negotiators to accept it. The letter said the offer includes wage and pension increases and the maintenance of low-cost health benefits.

One labor expert questioned whether that would work, especially with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, which has a history of fighting employers and winning contracts that are the envy of other blue-collar industries.

Under the prior contract, which expired in July, average wages

exceed $50 an hour, according to the maritime association.

“Handing out the leaflets is a provocative move with questionable gain,” said Harley Shaiken, a professor and labor relations expert at the University of California, Berkeley. “We’re in the end game, and you don’t want to complicate things, and that is the risk.”

The letter’s “last, best and final offer” language is significant because it could lay the groundwork for the declaration of an impasse and a full lockout of workers by employers.

Meanwhile, negotiators for the union and the Pacific Maritime Association, which represents employers, met with U.S. Labor Secretary Thomas Perez in San

Francisco.

The involvement of the nation’s top labor official underscored rising political and economic pressure to reach a contract deal and free cargo bottlenecks at 29 ports that handle about $1 trillion of trade annually. Commerce Secretary Penny Pritzker also attended sessions Wednesday.

To date, employers have done partial lockouts, mostly of crews that load and unload containers at the docks using massive cranes. They cut night shifts last month and in recent weeks have not called crane crews on weekends and holidays, saying they would not pay extra to workers they believe are intentionally slowing down.

Wal-Mart to boost pay Associated Press BENTONVILLE, Ark. — Hoping to shed its reputation for offering little more than deadend jobs, Wal-Mart, the nation’s biggest private employer, is giving raises to nearly a half-million workers and offering what it says are more opportunities for advancement.

Wal-Mart said that as part of $1 billion it’s spending to change the way it trains and pays workers, the company will give raises to nearly 40 percent of its 1.3 million U.S. employees in the next six months.

In addition to raises, Wal-Mart said it plans to make changes to how workers are scheduled and add training programs for sales staff so that employees can more easily map out their future at the company.

The company said the changes, which were announced Thursday as Wal-Mart reported better-than-expected fourthquarter results, will hurt profits this year.

“We are trying to create a meritocracy where you can start somewhere and end up just as high as your hard work and your capacity will enable you to go,” CEO Doug McMillon said this week at the company’s headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas.

The changes come at a time when there’s growing concern for the plight of the nation’s hourly workers.

Thousands of U.S. hourly workers and their supporters have staged protests across the country in the past couple of years to call attention to their financial struggles. Business groups and

The 11th 787 Dreamliner built by Boeing is in the air in a pre-delivery test flight. The plane’s customer is Korean Air, which will use it as a private business jet, according to FlightRadar24 and the blog All Things 787. The airplane is one of several early production 787s that Boeing has struggled to sell, earning them the nickname the Terrible Teens. The planes have required extensive post-factory rework. Boeing hopes to sell three or four this year and again next year. The company had planned to sell a few in 2014, but the buyers backed out. Korean Air’s plane — N507BJ — took off from Paine Field at about 8:10 a.m.

politicians have jumped into the fray, debating a proposal by President Obama to raise the federal minimum wage from $7.25 to $10.10 an hour. And, a new Associated Press-GfK poll found that most Americans support increasing the minimum wage.

At the same time, competition for retail workers is becoming increasingly stiff. As shoppers get more mobile savvy, retailers are seeking sales staff that’s more skilled at customer service. But in the improving economy, the most desirable retail workers feel more confident in hopping from job to job.

Initial jobless claims declined more than expected last week, falling back below the 300,000 level that indicates a healthy labor market. About 283,000 people filed for first-time unemployment benefits, down from 304,000 the previous week, the Labor Department said Thursday. The drop was more than forecast by economists, who expected 290,000 initial claims. The weekly figure can be volatile but it is a key indicator of the state of the labor market. Claims had been running below 300,000 for most of the fourth quarter of last year before bumping up a bit to start 2015.

sales, follows other big retailers that have announced plans to increase pay for its workers. Swedish home furnishings retailer Ikea this year gave thousands of workers at its U.S. division a 17 percent average raise to $10.76 an hour. And clothing chain Gap Inc. raised its minimum hourly wage to $9 last year and to $10 this year.

Because of its massive size and impact, Wal-Mart has faced outsized pressure by organized labor groups to raise its starting hourly wages to $15 and provide workers with more consistent hours.

With its new changes, the company’s average full-time wage will be $13 an hour, up from $12.85.

JEFF CHIU / ASSOCIATED PRESS

For part-time workers, the hourly wage will be $10, up from $9.48.

That’s below the $14.65 average that hourly retail workers in a non-supervisory role earn, according to government data that includes people who work at auto dealers and other outlets that would likely pay more than discounters like Wal-Mart. But it’s above the $9.93 average hourly pay for cashiers and low level retail sales staff, according to Hay Group’s survey of 140 retailers with annual sales of $500 million.

Character matters more than college degree hen individuals or ideas are criticized does the source matter? When we read about the perils of mustard in schools does it matter that the author is a chili sauce producer married to the only daughter of a taco shell tycoon?

Sadly, though, much criticism of individuals is no more than gossip or, worse, unsourced, scurrilous charges dreamed up by rivals and enemies. Even more sadly, sometimes these charges, even when proven false, become

Questions about the importance of sources and the validity of charges arose recently when critics of Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said that he is not qualified to run for president because he does not have a college degree.

On its face the charge is invalid. The Constitution specifies only three qualifications for the presidency: the person must be a natural born citizen; be at least 35 years old; and have lived within the United States for at least 14 years. It says nothing about level of education or any other qualifications.

Higher education still might be a significant issue now that its

Just how important is a college degree for an American president in today’s world?

Even closer to the present time, of all the successes and failures of presidents since the 1960s it is difficult to see where higher education made a crucial difference.

T-Mobile US Inc. on Thursday reported fourth-quarter net income of $101 million, after reporting a loss in the same period a year earlier, as more people signed up for its wireless service. T-Mobile said it ended the year with more than 55 million customers after adding 2.1 million in the fourth quarter and 8.3 million during the year. It has heavily promoted discounts to win customers from other carriers. The Bellevue company said it had a profit of 12 cents per share. The results beat Wall Street expectations. The average estimate of analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research was for earnings of 9 cents per share.

Damaged refinery unit had been offline A Southern California oil refinery unit that was damaged by an explosion was already offline for unplanned maintenance when the fire occurred, industry analysts said Thursday. The so-called fluid catalytic cracker unit refines gasoline and is critical to producing California-grade fuel. It was down for two days after problems with a recently repaired component within it when another component exploded, the Oil Price Information Service said Thursday.

The blast in Torrance caused a fire that shook the neighborhood Wednesday and rained debris and ash on nearby lawns.

“It’s positioning itself to be competitive,” he said. “This is a step in the right direction.”

Here’s a breakdown of some of Wal-Mart’s plans: ■■Start raising entry level wages to at least $9 an hour in April and to at least $10 an hour by February of next year. That includes the less than 6,000 workers who make the federal minimum wage. Sam’s Club locations will offer a starting hourly wage of at least $9.50 or higher in all markets, and at least $10.50 by next year.

■■Raise the floor and ceiling of its pay range for each position in most stores. For example, the pay range for cashiers is $7.65 to $16. The new range will be $9.00 to $17.55.

■■Raise the starting wage for some department managers to at least $13 an hour by this summer and at least $15 an hour by early next year.

■■Give newly hired workers a $9 per hour training wage and when they successfully complete the six-month training program, raise it to $10 an hour. Those workers can pursue one

FriDay, 02.20.2015

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A historic Alaska gold-mining city could be the first place where the federal government invests in a deep-water port to serve vessels in Arctic waters.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is preparing to release a study for public comment that suggests expanding the Port of Nome as a first step in improving infrastructure along Alaska’s west and north coast.

Nome is south of the Bering Strait but far closer to Arctic waters than the nearest Coast Guard base in Kodiak, an island east of the Aleutian Chain.

The lack of a deep-water port along Alaska’s north and west coasts has been a point of concern as climate warming has made Arctic waters more accessible. As ship traffic has increased, the corps, the Coast Guard

and other federal agencies have expressed concern about responding to vessels in distress, industrial activities and oil spills.

Royal Dutch Shell PLC began exploratory drilling on offshore leases in 2012 in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas. The company is considering drilling again this summer in the Chukchi if it can obtain the necessary permits. Tour boats travel across the Bering Strait, and state and federal officials anticipate shipping companies could someday use Arctic Ocean routes for moving freight between continents.

Nome would welcome expanded port facilities that could handle larger, deeper fuel tankers and possibly lower fuel prices, said Joy Baker, Nome’s port project manager. The city would also like to accommodate the Coast Guard fleet and vessels used for petroleum drilling, she said.

Store leaders like hourly supervisors will get refresher training on people leadership skills so that they can help workers grow and advance.

■■Roll out a program that offers some workers fixed schedules so they can be able to choose the same hours each week. The program is being tested in Wichita, Kansas.

■■Team up with its nonprofit, Walmart Foundation, to invest a total of $100 million spread over the next five years to support programs that help advance careers for entry level workers in the industry.

McMillon, whose first job at WalMart was an hourly position loading trucks during college, said the company is making the changes in both wages and training because it realizes it needs to do more than just pay more. In a survey Wal-Mart conducted of 24,000 workers, it found that many don’t know how to move up at Wal-Mart.

McMillon, who became CEO last year, said he’s hoping that if the company invests in its workers, they will provide better customer service. And ultimately, he hopes that will encourage shoppers to spend more.

“We want to make it really clear that working at Wal-Mart is a great opportunity,” he said. “Time will tell what the significance of the decisions will be.”

The corps in 2012 launched a threeyear study on deep ports in response to increased vessel traffic. The study area covered 3,626 miles of coastline from southwest Alaska to the Canada border.

Nome offers advantages that more northern communities don’t, such as an airport that handles jets.

Its outer port, however, with annual dredging is only 22 feet deep. Ships with deeper drafts must ferry their contents to shore.

Corps spokesman Tom Findtner said the agency in December tentatively selected a plan to modify the Port of Nome. The plan suggests extending Nome’s causeway by 2,150 feet, building a 450-foot dock and dredging the new, protected area and entrance channel to 28 feet.

The corps report is a feasibility review that will be released for public comment, possibly by Friday.

McCusker From Page A9

On the other hand, all of our presidents during this modern period were college graduates so it is difficult to isolate higher education’s impact, if any.

From an economic standpoint, hands-on experience in the modern American workplace, especially having experience as a manager in that environment, would be a valuable asset to a president, or, for that matter, even to a presidential candidate. Presidents are always surrounded with an abundant supply of bureaucrats and policy wonks itching to see their ingenious scheme to fix the economy imposed on the rest of us. Management experience and knowing how business really works could save a president, and our economy, from some very costly mistakes.

When we look at modern presidents and their achievements it would seem that the single most important qualification is character. And, to paraphrase basketball coach John Wooden, the presidency doesn’t build character. It reveals it.

Another important qualification is experience in taking responsibility for his or her decisions and actions.

It doesn’t absolutely have to be in an elected office, but that kind of public experience strips away a lot of the protective apparatus that surrounds private sector executives.

It would also be a good thing for a president to have a deep, heartfelt appreciation for the truth.

One of the key characteristics of our time is that truth has become a scarce commodity, and a president must be able to deal with that without

being corrupted by it.

A good president must be able to separate campaigning from governing. Most people’s expectations for truth in campaigns are very low and rarely unmet. Our expectations for truth in governing, though, are unchanged. They remain high, with good reason.

Dark matter occupies a significant portion of space on the Internet, and dense clusters of it are found in social media.

Much of it is anonymous to some extent, and often unhindered by considerations of truth or accuracy. It isn’t surprising, then, that modern politics responded to the allure of social media, and using it effectively is now considered a must for a winning campaign strategy. To the extent that campaigning drifts into governing, though, this represents a genuine threat to truth.

Truth, and a government that values it, is more than simply important to democracy, it is a necessity. Certainly our economic system cannot function without a dedication to it. Consider, for example, the contribution that lying made to our most recent financial meltdown.

Rather than concern about academic degrees, a better question would be: can our democracy and our economy survive the combined effects of social media and the everlasting campaign? We ask a lot of our presidents. Would a college degree help?

Maybe, but it depends more on the president than on the diploma.

IN OUR VIEW | Commercial flights at Paine Field

Passenger flights deserve look The last time an airline sought to offer regular commercial flights to and from Paine Field, the company, Allegiant Air, offered to build its own terminal but wanted the space at the county’s airport for free, with no lease payments.

Snohomish County, wisely, canceled that flight of fancy.

Less than two years later, the county may have a more air-worthy proposal to consider.

New York-based Propeller Investments, which operates a private-public partnership airport in metro Atlanta, Georgia, is in the early stages of talks with the county about its financing of the construction of a terminal with two gates at Paine Field, finding an airline or airlines to operate there and paying a lease.

Propeller appears serious about the plan. For starters, while the project advances, it has agreed to a $3,575-a-month lease option on the property it seeks to use

for three years while it designs the project and obtains permits. Once the terminal is in place, Propeller will pay the county $35,755 a month.

In the first four years of the 30-year lease, the county would receive 2.5 percent of gross receipts from the terminal’s operation, increasing to 5 percent after that. Propeller also will pay a one-time $330,000 traffic impact fee.

Potentially standing in its way is a legal challenge, currently suspended, of the Federal Aviation Administration’s determination in 2012 that re-affirmed two earlier conclusions that regular passenger service at Paine Field would not have significant noise, traffic or pollution impacts, and that was assuming 23 flights each day by 2018.

Initially, service under the Propeller proposal would be for about five flights a day.

A group opposed to regular commercial flights, led by the city of Mukilteo, challenged

the FAA’s determination in a suit before the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in June, but the legal action was put on hold as no formal proposal was under consideration.

A new proposal could renew the suit to seek yet another environmental study.

Whether the lawsuit moves forward or not, the county must give Propeller’s proposal fair consideration. The County Council is scheduled meet March 2 to discuss and possibly vote on Propeller’s plan.

In accepting federal FAA grants for improvements at Paine Field over the years, the county has obligated itself to consider responsible commercial uses of the airport.

Allegiant Air’s request to fly free was good reason for the county to say no. It will be harder to say no to Propeller if its plans check out.

Opponents have long pointed to the potential for noise and other impacts from increased flights at Paine Field,

but with about 300 flights daily into and out of Paine Field, including every plane that Boeing rolls off the line, it’s hard to see how 23 flights a day, much less five, will add significantly to what’s already experienced at Paine Field.

In its 2012 review, the FAA found that the operation of a commercial air terminal would not exceed 65 decibels — about the level of a louderthan-average conversation — beyond the boundaries of Paine Field, a level of noise that would not significantly affect neighboring homes, schools, churches or businesses.

Passenger air service could be invaluable to the county’s economy. As the region continues to grow — as does the demand for the products and services that are built and developed here — Snohomish County will need more options for transportation, not fewer.

Five flights a day sounds like a reasonable start.

■■ATHEISM

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■HATE CRIMES

Majority offers our support Regarding the article, “Vandals who hit Hindu temple ‘have no idea what we stand for’ ”: A small portion of Americans are in a panic; it’s as if a group of killer bees killed a loved one.

Under their panic and hate, these individuals apparently took an oath to kill all bees, no matter if they are bumble bees, ground bees, carpenter bees, yellow jackets, mining bees, sweet bees, wasps or honey bees. In their panic, the narrowly focused, vengeance-minded can only believe a bee is a bee and needs to be eliminated!

Such may be the case when someone spray-painted a Nazi swastika on the Bothellarea Hindu Temple, and then another one on a nearby Hindu school. Under this racist graffiti the person(s) noted: “Muslims get out” “Muslims go home.”

On behalf of the unified Snohomish County citizenry’s disdain for hate crimes, our Snohomish County Executive, John Lovick, told those present at a Hindu Maha Shivaratri celebration: “The words and symbol sprayed on your building(s) are highly offensive …Your way of life is tolerance and forgiveness.

Your forgiveness will bring healing to our community.”

Along with our county executive, others are making it clear we will not tolerate hate crimes.

In unison, being one community, we are voicing loud and clear that anyone who does these despicable acts will be caught and prosecuted.

The Hindu community is receiving a wide range of support by way of emails, flowers, banners, and with face to face personal support from Snohomish and King counties. It gave me a wide smile and pride of heart when I witnessed and heard our residents collective thundering voice in support of our Hindu brothers and sisters as it reenforced: “You are home!”

What does our brave executive branch do? Nothing much except give more speeches. They talk about how we need to stop insulting other religions and stand “shoulder to shoulder” to condemn violence. We need to be more “accepting and tolerant” of noble faiths. Perhaps that would extend to speaking out about the brutal violence, torture and mistreatment of Christians world-wide? Hangings in Iran for being Christian?

Maybe even, and this is a stretch, stop persecuting Christians here at home? Yes, I said, “Here at home.” It’s not hard to find examples of intolerance, persecution and rejection of Christians in our own country, sponsored by our very own government. In the last century we pretty much shifted the ability of the Christian churches in this country to help the needy, that function was taken over by the government as they imposed rules, restrictions and mandates making it virtually impossible to serve homeless and the poor without allowing any references to the faith that actually requires such actions.

Today, our president refuses to call these Islamic extremists what they are, but is more than willing to block churches from sharing their faith with someone who most likely desperately needs it.

Common sense dictates morality

I have been following the daylight saving time discussion with amusement and would like to clarify some points.

DST is a joke, an artificial concept. The sun has no idea of what time your clock says.

It’s still 12 hours of sun to a maximum of 16 hours back to 12 hours from the spring equinox to the summer solstice to fall equinox. You do not get more or less sun time with DST. There is no need to be springing forward and falling back every six or seven months. If you like it lighter in the evening get up an hour earlier in the morning and go to bed an hour earlier than standard time. That is how DST works. The pro-DST faction are a bunch of lemmings fooling themselves; happy landings!

In reference to Pastor Gary Jensen’s letter about atheism, “Teachings beget logical outcomes,” he had it going good until he stated: “Atheism also undercuts the notion of morality that has always been foundational to civil society.” Without that statement he would not have been able to go on and make a point in favor of religion, let alone Christianity.

What has atheism got to do with morality? Absolutely nothing. Common sense rules. Does one need to believe in God to see that treating a fellow human with kindness and dignity is the way to be? Is that not obvious in existence itself? Did the Golden Rule arise out of religion or common sense? A four-yearold child can see it is wrong to be mean to others because that same child would not want to be treated likewise in retaliation. Do you believe this child has any concept of God? Of course not. Not on his or her own anyway. It would be only if the child had been taught such.

Jensen states, “I do not deny that atheists can be moral citizens in the world for the very same reason as everyone else.”

That’s restating my point with different words. OK, then. Enough.

Stop right there. Why bring Jesus into it? Why dredge up one of dozens, if not hundreds, if not thousands of religions, all conflicting with each other in one form or another? This results in nothing but confusion, distrust and all kinds of mayhem up to, and including, war crimes and beheadings. Please. Enough with all these different religions. Everyone has to grow up and knock off all this childish, fantasy-laden, mumbo-jumbo razzmatazz.

■■DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME

Disruptions are not worth change When I worked as a landscaper in Arizona, we started work at sunrise all year. Arizona doesn’t have daylight saving time, but people can work out a schedule on their own. There are more traffic accidents after the switch in either direction. It messes up my sleep for a week at least. Let’s not have it.

Abolishing the filibuster puts GOP in control

I

’ve been radicalized. By Harry Reid and Barack Obama. Goodbye moderation and sweet reason. No more clinging to constitutional and procedural restraint.

It’s time to go nuclear.

In the fourth quarter of his presidency, Obama unbound is abusing presidential authority at will to secure a legacy on everything from environmental CHARLES regulation to immigraKRAUTHAMMER tion, the laws of which he would unilaterally suspend.

Republicans find themselves on the sidelines bleating plaintively about violations of the separation of powers.

They thought they found an instrument of resistance in funding for the Department of Homeland Security. The House has funded the whole department except for the immigration service, which was denied the money to implement Obama’s executive amnesty.

But Democrats have filibustered the bill in the Senate, where it will die. Republicans, not the filibustering Democrats, will be blamed for shutting down DHS and jeopardizing the nation’s safety at a time of heightened international terrorism.

But there is a way out for the GOP. Go bold. Go nuclear. Abolish the filibuster.

Pass the bill and send it to the president.

I know that breaks a lot of china. But Congress is already knee-deep in fractured porcelain. On policy, Obama has repeatedly usurped congressional power, most egregiously with an executive amnesty for illegal immigrants that for four years he himself had insisted was unlawful.

As for procedure, Reid went nuclear in November 2013 when he abolished the filibuster for presidential appointees and judicial nominees (below the Supreme Court). He did it to pack the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals with liberals.

My beef with Reid was not what he did but how he did it. The filibuster has grown in use and power over the decades to the point of dysfunction. Everything needed 60 votes. This is relatively new and nowhere to be found in the Constitution.

My problem was the egregious way Reid changed the rule: by a simple majority, 52-48, with zero Republicans onboard (and three Democrats defecting). As I wrote at the time, “If a bare majority can change the fundamental rules that govern an institution, then there are no rules.”

I was not the only one to warn that Democrats would rue the day. Once you go nuclear, so can the other guy.

Reid went first. Time for Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to finish the job.

Push the button. Abolish the filibuster.

Then immediately pass the House homeland security bill and send it to the president. He is likely to veto it, but the politics will have been radically changed. The current storyline is: Republican Congress won’t fund DHS, threatening to shut it down. New storyline: Obama vetoes funding for DHS, threatening to shut it down.

The latter narrative is more accurate: Democrats are stopping the funding.

Moreover, a presidential veto would lead to a more fair allocation of blame. The president will have a major incentive to find some face-saving finesse.

But filibuster abolition is more than a one-shot proposition. It would radically change the next two years. It would give Republicans full control of the Congress and allow swift passage of a GOP agenda.

It would also clarify the antagonists: a lawless president vs. a willful Congress.

The GOP could be sending bill after bill to the president’s desk — on tax reform, trade, Obamacare and, if it has the guts, immigration.

Obama’s choice? Sign, veto or negotiate a compromise. If he vetoes, then Republicans take that issue to the country in 2016.

What’s the downside? Democrats showed in 2013 their willingness to trash Senate procedure for a mess of pottage — three judges on one court. If Republicans stand pat now, what’s to stop Democrats from abolishing the filibuster altogether when it suits them in the future?

And think of the upside. A GOP resort to the nuclear option might make Democrats come to their senses and negotiate a new understanding that any fundamental change in Senate rules will henceforth require some agreed to supermajority. No more bare-majority party-line coups.

This would be ideal. But that’s for later.

For now, go for the doable. Abolish the filibuster and challenge the president.

And when asked, “How can you do such a thing?” tell them to ask Harry Reid.

Gas: Expected to peak in May-June and then drop again From Page A1

have gone up in recent weeks, they are still well below where they were a few months ago.

Last summer, it cost Dormaier more than $45 to fill up his sedan. On Thursday, he paid about $26.

“With my SUV, it went from $80 to fill up to $38, so it’s significant,” the 21-yearold said.

With three young kids, he’s more than happy to have a few more dollars in his wallet. Dormaier just finished an aerospace tooling program at the Washington Aerospace Training Center at Paine Field near Everett and is looking for work.

“Hopefully, they will stay low,” he said.

While gas prices in the state will likely go up, the average price this year should be well below the average for 2014, said Allison Mac, a petroleum analyst for GasBuddy. com.

Gas prices in Washington will probably increase another 30 to 40 cents per gallon before peaking in late May or early June, followed by an overall decline, she said.

The average price per gallon for 2015 will probably be about $2.50 a gallon, compared to $3.33 for 2014, she said.

Fuel prices typically increase this time of year.

“We call it the first quarter climb,” Mac said.

Alliance From Page A1

“There is not a place for a small, independent hospital in a suburban area,” Jones said.

Regular gas was just $2.29 a gallon.

Refineries are moving from making winter-grade gas to summer-grade gas, which doesn’t evaporate as easily — making less smog and other emissions, she said. The different blends are federally mandated.

Production temporarily dips as refineries switch from one blend to the other, causing prices to rise, she said.

That price increase

continues through the spring because summerblend gas costs more to make, Mac said.

The rise typically peaks around late May or early June before tapering off.

Fuel prices are affected by many factors, ranging from wars and the global economy to the number and size of refineries in a region, state gas taxes and even how easy it is for drivers to get to a particular gas

station, she said.

“People buy gas more based on convenience than on being strictly price shoppers,” Mac said.

“That’s why some station owners are willing to take that risk and mark up their price a few cents.”

Rent and overhead costs can also contribute to price variations from one station to the next. Branded gas, such as at Chevron stations, are also more

expensive than unbranded fuels.

Gas in the Pacific Northwest tends to cost more because the area is geographically isolated and has only a handful of refineries. A production decline at one refinery can quickly drive pump prices higher because there aren’t enough other plants to make up for the slip, she said.

In the big picture, gas

prices have been down for several months because “supply has been super high, and demand has been super low. It’s Economics 101,” Mac said.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Energy Information Administration forecast low gas prices through the rest of 2015.

Production is up in the U.S. and other countries.

The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries economic bloc has not cut production, and demand is down in Europe and Asia, where economies are weak or growing more slowly than expected.

For Lake Stevens resident Gerry Hall, that means she’s saving about $40 a month at the pumps.

“I wondered where the extra money was coming from,” the 88-year-old said as she fueled her 1998 Nissan Frontier pickup.

Dan Catchpole: 425339-3454; dcatchpole@ heraldnet.com; Twitter: @ dcatchpole.

One example of the trend of medical groups joining larger networks occurred when the Boeing Co. last year created two large medical networks that employees can use.

By getting health services in-network, employees

can save money. Cascade joined one of those networks, led by UW Medicine.

Cascade was on the brink of wrapping up a deal with PeaceHealth last year. The Catholic health care organization broke off talks in July. An executive blamed

the change of course on financial problems caused by a conversion to electronic medical records.

PeaceHealth operates hospitals and clinics in Washington, Oregon and Alaska.

There was some public

opposition to Cascade, a tax-supported hospital, affiliating with a Catholic health care organization, because of the church’s opposition to birth control, abortion and assisted suicide for those who are terminally ill.

State Attorney General Bob Ferguson issued a formal opinion in 2013 saying that tax-supported hospitals have to provide access to birth control and abortion services.

2015 Honda Accord Hybrid: 550 to 600 miles on one tank ROAD TEST

by Larry Lark Herald Special Sections Writer

T

he numbers don’t lie.

Honda’s Accord continues to be the topselling passenger car in the United States. And the cherry-on-top is a host of awards and accolades by media types that only confirm the car-buying public knows its stuff.

Last year’s model was named to the Car and Driver’s “10 Best List” for an unprecedented 28th time, Motor Week’s “Driver’s Choice Award,” and Kelly Blue Book’s “Best Buy Award,” just to name a few.

My 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring, a midsize sedan offered in multiple variations, is roomy, well-appointed, fun-to-drive, fuel-efficient and destined to continue this car’s amazing run.

The 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid is available in Hybrid (base), EX-L, and Touring trim levels.

It looks like a “normal” Accord because it shares the same fundamental body and chassis architecture of a nonhybrid, including the model’s aerodynamic, lightweight body and beautiful exterior.

It performs like a normal Accord, thanks to an all-

new 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC 4-cylinder “Earth Dream” engine mated to an electric, continuously variable automatic transmission. This dynamic duo actually zips down the road in a fashion that makes you forget you are driving a hybrid.

But this four-door, family sedan that seats five adults with some elbow room left over, delivers a supernatural 50 miles per gallon fuel economy, and a range — on one tank of gas — somewhere in the area of 550 to 600 miles!

The wizard behind the curtain, so to speak is a brand, spanking new hybrid system called Intelligent Multi-Mode Drive (i-MMD). Under most conditions,

the gas engine powers a generator, which in turn provides energy to charge the hybrid battery and/or for the electric motor to drive the wheels. In addition, the i-MMD can operate on gasoline engine power only, mainly during medium- to high-speed cruising. Honda’s i-MMD uses a new two-motor hybrid approach that continuously cycles between three different modes — EV drive, hybrid drive and engine drive — to maximize fuel efficiency.

I found the 360-watt AM/FM/CD/MP3 sound system with seven speakers as virtual music to my ears. The system played an assortment of 2014 Grammy-nominated tunes with crystal clarity, revealing voice and musical nuance that were unexpected.

Other praise-worthy goodies included a voicerecognition navigation system with mulit-view, rear

camera on an eight-inch display, XM satellite radio, SMS text messaging, Bluetooth, USB interface, Pandora internet radio, and hard disc drive.

Of course, there was also adaptive cruise control that automatically follows cars at a safe, predetermined distance, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, vehicle stability assist, and a camera that is activated when the right blinker is engaged, showing a swath of real estate to the car’s immediate right to eliminate the blind spot and enhance visibility.

Completing the Accord Hybrid Touring’s almost endless list of amenities was a moon roof, pushbutton start, keyless entry, heated front seats and door mirrors, LED headlights and taillights, 17-inch alloy wheels, and leather trimmed seats. Q

Nissan Murano:

The Social Crossover

By FRANK A. AUKOFER AutoWriters Associates

A

ttention, empty nesters: Nissan has designed its 2015 Murano crossover utility vehicle just for you.

The company divines what you’re really into: touring wineries and going out for nice dinners with friends. To do that, Nissan figures you need a vehicle with an interior that enhances socializing.

“This is the most social car we’ve ever had,” said Jeremy Tucker, Nissan’s vice president for marketing communications.

To the untrained eye, the new Murano looks pretty much like others of its ilk. It’s a roomy, midsize CUV that shows a pleasant, nicely executed interior with soft-touch surfaces and tasteful trim. It’s also comfortable across the lineup with soft cloth or leather upholstery covering what Nissan calls its space-age “zero

Platinum model with all-wheel drive. Though the Murano does not compete as a luxury vehicle, the Platinum certainly does a fine impersonation with its 20-inch alloy wheels, optional panoramic sunroof, adaptive cruise control, climate controlled front seats, and heated rear seats and steering wheel.

Tested for this review was the S with AWD, a navigation system, and upscale paint. The navigation package, with satellite and HD radio, was pleasantly priced at just $820 so the bottom line sticker totaled $33,920 — less than some other well-equipped compact crossovers.

Power flows through a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) and the combination manages a respectable EPA city/highway/combined fuel economy rating of 21/28/24 mpg.

Nissan has been a pioneer in CVT technology and uses the

arrived in 2009. Both had bulbous bodies and the second generation may have been the most disrespected vehicle in recent memory. That came when Nissan fashioned a two-door convertible Murano, which seems destined to become a collector’s item along the love-it-or-hate-it lines of cars like the Edsel from Ford, the Pontiac Aztek, and the American Motors Pacer and Gremlin.

However, it’s likely that the 2015 Nissan Murano will be respected not only for its social awakening, but for its other qualities as well. It comes in four versions with either front- or all-wheel drive. The latter adds $1,600 to the price tag and will be especially appreciated in areas with nasty weather. In fact, Nissan says 55 percent of Murano sales already are of the AWD model.

Prices range from $30,445 for the base S model with front drive to $41,485 for the top-line

gravity” seats.

The socializing part comes when the two couples are gabbing inside and Charlie, in the back seat, whips out his smartphone from its special storage compartment to play a song for the host and hostess up front. He can plug it in and queue it up from the back seat.

Nissan also has installed what it calls a communication alley in the upscale social lounge interior.

The center console was designed low and wide to encourage conversation between front and rear occupants.

The new third-generation 2015 Murano also sports arresting new exterior styling with swooping curves, a roof that seems to float over the vehicle, boomerangshaped LED headlights, and distinctive LED taillights.

It’s a welcome departure. The first Murano was introduced in 2003 and the second generation

transmissions in many models.

A CVT is characterized by a lack of shift points; the rpms increase and decrease seamlessly. But because some CVTs seem to be slipping as the revs rise in overtaking, Nissan adds a kick-down shift point that feels like the passing gear in a standard automatic transmission.

On the road, the Murano has a hefty feel, with solid straight-line tracking, as well as somewhat numb but responsive steering in cornering. It’s no sportster, but acquits itself well for a relatively large vehicle.

It is more than 16 feet long with 108 cubic feet of passenger volume (slightly less if you order the panoramic sunroof). Cargo volume behind the back seat is a generous 40 cubic feet, which expands to 70 cubic feet with the split rear seatbacks folded flat.

Folding them takes a simple tug at a strap.

Together you can make a contribution that will bring you peace of mind and boost your confidence and reputation. ���� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Be careful how you react to emotional situations.

Don’t stretch the truth to avoid dealing with something.

Someone special will offer you recognition for your accomplishments, skills and talents. ��� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You will have trouble controlling your emotions. Your eagerness to please will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives.

Romance will cause confusion and a false sense of security. ��� Universal Uclick

Snohomish girls win district title Panthers beat Vikings 57-35 to capture 4A district championship, berth to state.

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

KEVIN CLARK / THE HERALD

EVERETT — When the Snohomish girls basketball team opened the season by losing its first three games, there likely wasn’t many people that thought they would be district champions.

However, with Thursday’s dominant 57-35 victory over Lake Stevens in the 4A District 1 championship game, the championship trophy resides in Snohomish.

“We scheduled a really good non-league schedule,” Snohomish head coach Ken Roberts said.

“If you look at Lynnwood, Glacier Peak and Arlington and the teams in Spokane. We were 1-5 non-league, but it made us better.

This whole year was focused on this moment for us.”

It showed on the court.

The Panthers seized control in the first quarter, opening the game with a 10-0 run. The Vikings answered back with a 10-0 run to tie the score, but Snohomish refocused and took control of the game for good.

“You’re going to expect runs from both teams,” Roberts said.

“We’re both good. We just didn’t panic when they made theirs.”

Jackson boys rout Monroe Timberwolves win 64-32 to earn fifth straight 4A district title, advance to state.

4A District Tournaments

Herald Writer

EVERETT — After the Jackson boys basketball team lost 10 seniors from last year’s team that placed fourth at the 4A state tournament, many thought Jackson’s dominance over the Wesco 4A would come to an end.

Think again.

The Timberwolves won their fifth consecutive 4A District 1 championship on Thursday with a 64-32 win over Monroe.

“It feels great,” Jackson head coach Steve Johnson said.

“I’m very proud of all the people that have worked really hard to get the program to this level — youth coaches, middle school coaches, people that have worked on our select

I’ve got a lot of messages from

former parents (of players) and former players. It’s great. It’s humbling to be part of a program that can sustain itself like that.”

The Timberwolves are on to next weekend’s state regional round where they will play a loser-out game for a trip to the Tacoma Dome as one of the state’s top eight teams.

Monroe will play Cascade on Saturday in a loser-out game for the district’s No. 2 seed to the state-regional round.

The championship game was never in doubt. Jackson led 13-4 at the end of the first quarter and 24-7 at halftime.

Jackson’s offense was clicking, but its defense was even better.

Secondary depth has suddenly Silvertips struggling to close out become big need for Seahawks close games on home ice of late

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

INDIANAPOLIS — The Seattle Seahawks aren’t just sitting around the league’s scouting combine staring at their smart phones like teenagers, waiting for running back Marshawn Lynch to confirm he is returning next season.

They are here with a co-priority forced upon them, one they didn’t have this time last month.

Seattle general manager John Schneider said Thursday inside Lucas Oil Stadium that nickel back Jeremy Lane needs knee surgery. It’s the result of his end-zone interception and return in the first quarter of the Super Bowl on which Lane also broke his arm. Lane may miss the start of next season.

EVERETT — The Everett Silvertips could have used the hockey equivalent of Mariano Rivera the past couple weeks.

They’ve needed assistance closing out games.

Everett is looking to begin putting the finishing touch on games after allowing a handful of leads in recent home contests slip from its grasp in the dying seconds of regulation. “(Closing out games) is huge, not just for the fans and everyone involved, but for us as a hockey team,” Tips overage winger Brayden Low said. “We’re trying to hang banners here and points are valuable.

Giving points to teams like Portland, TriCity and Seattle, it’s tough at the end of the day when they’re not that far behind us.”

Sounders to play Tijuana

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

The Seattle Sounders announced Thursday they will play Mexico’s Club Tijuana in a friendly at 7 p.m. on March 24 at CenturyLink Field.

Sounders general manager Garth Lagerwey said the opponent was selected to help prepare for the Sounders’ return to the CONCACAF Champions League and the style and quality of Mexican clubs that await.

“Winning the CONCACAF Champions League is a priority for our organization,” Lagerwey said in a press release.

Founded in 2007, Club Tijuana gained promotion to the Mexican First Division in 2010. Two years later, the club captured the 2012 Liga MX Apertura championship.

Associated Press

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Danica and Denny provided the dust-up. Hendrick Motorsports delivered another sweep.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Jimmie Johnson swept the Budweiser Duel races Thursday night to give Hendrick Motorsports a 1-2-3 start for the Daytona 500. Jeff Gordon had already won the pole the season-opening race, and the rest of the field was locked in through the pair of 150-mile qualifying races.

Danica Patrick was in the second race and needed to finish 15th or better to guarantee a spot Sunday. She was sitting pretty, too, until her second incident with Denny Hamlin in two days damaged her car and put her in danger of missing the field.

Her Stewart-Haas Racing team worked frantically on rapid repairs and she restarted 18th with two laps to go. She was pushed all the way around Daytona International Speedway by teammate Kurt Busch to finish 10th and make the 500.

“There’s a lot of stressing out. Obviously, for my team and everybody, but mostly for (sponsor) GoDaddy, it made me nervous, too,” she said.

“This is the biggest race of the year and they need to be in it.”

The tension spilled over after the race when she confronted Hamlin and they differed on what occurred. She was already in her backup car because of an incident in Wednesday’s practice, and she believed Hamlin spun her Thursday.

It led to a heated argument, with Hamlin at times appearing to try to calm Patrick, and he finally seemed exasperated when he covered his face with his hands.

“He cut across my rear bumper and pulls the back end around,” Patrick said. “I get being close. But he’s been going to my left rear and it just gets it light. I don’t want to have these issues, but if we’re going to have these issues then we’re going to have to deal with them. We can’t be putting ourselves out of our race at someone else’s expense and nothing’s happened to him.”

Tony Stewart, her car coowner, entered the fray and instructed Hamlin to watch the video.

“What do you want me to do, Tony? Not race close,” replied Hamlin, adamant that Patrick’s car was too loose and he didn’t touch her. He maintained the

beating Seattle last Saturday, but the Tips ended up allowing the tying goal in all three games. The only game during this stretch which Everett won in regulation was the 6-0 drubbing of Vancouver last Friday, during which the final minutes were academic.

The Tips ended up beating Portland in overtime, while dropping shootouts against TriCity and Seattle. So while Everett still picked up 75 percent of the available points in those four games, the Tips allowed their division rivals five of a possible six points in the process. “(Being able to close games) is huge, huge,” Everett captain Kohl Bauml repeated.

“It’s points in the standings.

Against Seattle we gave them an extra two when we probably shouldn’t have, and we lost one ourselves, so that’s three-point difference in the standings. It’s huge coming down the stretch, especially against division rivals like Portland and Seattle that are breathing right down our necks. You have to close those games out when you can.

Obviously we’re trying, it hasn’t been our best skill this year yet, but we’re working at it.”

The lost leads weren’t all disasters for Everett, however.

The eventual shootout loss to Tri-City was troubling, as the

Series champion Hamilton falls ill, stops driving early.

Associated Press

TERRY RENNA / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Dale Earnhardt Jr raises the trophy in victory lane after winning the first of two qualifying races for the Daytona 500 on Thursday.

MONTMELO, Spain — Formula One had an incident-filled return to preseason testing on Thursday with champion Lewis Hamilton falling ill, German Pascal Wehrlein racing for two different teams, Williams’ test driver Susie Wolff ending up in the gravel and a faulty seal ending Jenson Button’s drive.

While others struggled, Pastor Maldonado of Lotus used a late flying lap to set the session’s fastest time and edge Kimi Raikkonen after another strong ride for Ferrari.

Maldonado stopped twice in the morning because of sensor problems but later topped the timesheet on the first day of the second preseason testing with a lap in 1 minute, 25.011 seconds.

That was still four seconds behind Raikkonen’s benchmark time from the first preseason test two weeks before in Jerez. But both of the day’s fastest drivers clocked quicker times than Hamilton’s pole-setting lap from the 2014 Spanish Grand Prix on the same Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit.

Hamilton fell ill with fever after 11 laps and stopped driving early in the day. Wehrlein took over after Mercedes recalled him from Force India, where he had started the session.

“Today was a really good day in my career. I was quite surprised in the morning when I got the information that I would be driving the Mercedes in the afternoon,” said Wehrlein. “To drive two Formula One cars in one day was amazing.”

Both Hamilton and Wehrlein finished with two of the three slowest times of the day, with Hamilton at the bottom — over five seconds off Maldonado’s pacesetting effort.

spin was an aerodynamic issue.

“I try to treat everyone as equal,” Hamlin said. “If you’re in this Cup series, you deserved your way here and you can handle a lot of situations. I just got close to her and her car got loose again. I just tried to explain that, ‘Danica, oh, it’s you, I’ve got to stay away two feet because your car is loose?’

“I guess I just have to give more room because once I get close enough to her, her car just gets out of control.”

When Hamlin and Patrick were finally separated, Busch was waiting to congratulate her. He did it by cupping her face with both hands; Busch has been accused by an ex-girlfriend of domestic assault, and he has maintained he merely cupped her face.

“It shouldn’t go unsaid, Kurt was there for me,” Patrick said.

“Without Kurt, I wouldn’t have finished where I did.”

Meanwhile, the Earnhardt and Johnson wins were anticlimactic.

Gordon and Johnson swept the front row Sunday in the first round of qualifying. Then Earnhardt, the defending Daytona 500 winner, won the first duel to take the third starting

spot.

“We’ve had a great car all week,” Earnhardt said. “I’m so glad to get through the duel in one piece because I know how good this car is. We’re going to have a fun day on Sunday.”

Gordon, the four-time NASCAR champion, finished second in the duel and was followed by Joey Logano, Stewart and Clint Bowyer.

Johnson easily won the second duel, leading Kyle Busch, Carl Edwards and Greg Biffle across the finish line.

“That car is bad first,” Johnson said. “I’m stoked for my teammate to win the first duel. We won the second, and Jeff and I have the front row locked down. It’s been an awesome week for all our Hendrick Motorsports cars.”

Racing their way into the Daytona 500 through the two duels were: Cole Whitt, Michael Annett, JJ Yeley, Michael McDowell, Ty Dillon, Landon Cassill, Ryan Blaney, Reed Sorenson, and Mike Wallace.

Dillon, the grandson of team owner Richard Childress, and Blaney, son of former Cup driver Dave Blaney, will be making their Daytona 500 debuts.

Tips blew a two-goal thirdperiod lead in a game that seemed to be well within control. But the last-minute goals allowed to both Portland and Seattle came during six-on-five situations, in which the opposition had pulled its goaltender for an extra attacker, and both of those games were competitive, hard-fought affairs that could have gone either way.

“Maybe it’s been a bit of puck luck,” Bauml said. “Against Seattle we did a good job for about a minute-and-a-half and a shot goes off (Mathew) Barzal’s shin pad and into the net. Against Portland (Carter) Hart makes a good save, everyone’s collapsing and falling in the crease, and it just happens to pop out to (Chase) De Leo. I don’t think it’s been a lack of effort or competing or caring, we’ve been out there blocking shots in the last minute. The bounces just aren’t going our way. Maybe we need to fix a couple things, but for the most part we’ve been competing hard out there to lock those games down, they just haven’t gone our way.”

But while there was a hint of misfortune in allowing those late goals against Portland and Seattle, the Tips understand they need to be better in those situations.

“I think it just goes back to being focused and mentally in it for 60 minutes,” Low said. “Obviously teams are pressing hard when they’re behind and it’s late, but the bottom line comes down

to being focused and being ready. You can’t give up, even when there’s just 20 seconds left and things look good. The game’s not over until the buzzer sounds, the old cliche says.

“The focus all year around here has been playing a full 60 minutes,” Low added. “It’s one thing to talk about it, it’s another thing to go out and do it.”

And closing out games is something the Tips will need to do if they want to hang onto their lead in the division.

Cascade boys beat Kamiak to stay alive

By Erik Erickson Herald Writer

EVERETT — For the third time in 10 days, the Cascade boys basketball team and Kamiak squared off in a Wesco 4A battle.

And for the third time in a row, the Bruins came away victorious.

Cascade held off a late Kamiak rally on way to a 70-59 victory in Thursday’s 4A District 1 loser-out matchup, and will advance to Saturday’s second-place game where the winner will advance to the regional round of the state tournament.

“I thought our guys came out focused and they executed.” Cascade head coach Darrell McNeal said. “We exploited the areas that we needed to and it worked out for us. Real proud for our kids and

the way they played tonight.”

After trailing by 18 to begin the fourth quarter, the Knights cut the deficit to eight late in the period, but the Bruins held on to avoid elimination and earn their second straight victory after losing at the buzzer against Jackson in Saturday’s semifinal.

Junior post Isaiah Gotell lead the Bruins with a game-high 29 points. Gotell scored 11 points in the first quarter to give the Bruins an early advantage and finished with 22 points through three as the Bruins built their lead.

Gotell has been playing his best basketball of late, scoring 18 in a victory over Mariner on Tuesday, 28 in the loss to Jackson, and 19 in the opening round of districts against the Knights.

“He’s one of the biggest guys on the floor so the fact that our guys noticed that and we adjusted our offense and got him the ball, it made it harder for Kamiak,” McNeal said. “We have shooters on the outside, but we were able to punish them on the inside.

That’s been huge for us.”

The Bruins looked to be in trouble in the second quarter when senior point guard Brevin Brown was forced out of the game with three fouls with 5:55 to play and the Knights holding a 22-21 lead. But the Bruins responded without Brown, ending the half on a 15-7 run to take a 36-29 lead into the halftime break.

Sophomore guard Trevon Blackmon entered in place of Brown and scored four of his

seven points during the run.

“That’s why you play the season games and you get those other guys ready to play,” McNeal said.

“I didn’t have any reservations at all of bringing in Trevon or some of those other guys who come in a played those minutes for us.”

Brown returned in the third and scored nine of his 15 points in the quarter as the Bruins outscored Kamiak 20-9 in the period and built their lead to 18.

Freshman guard Carson Tuttle scored all of his team-high 15 points in the final period, including two 3-pointers, as the Knights made their run. Tuttle netted 10 straight Kamiak points to cut Cascade’s lead to 61-50 with 4:30 to play, and assisted junior post Gavin Patrick on the basket that

Bearcat girls eliminate Timberwolves Herald staff EVERETT — The Monroe girls basketball team clamped on the defense in the second half, holding Jackson to just 13 points en route to a 46-32 victory Thursday in a Class 4A District 1 loser-out game at Everett Community College.

The Bearcats (17-7) advanced to Saturday’s second-place game against Lake Stevens. The winner on Saturday moves on to the regional round of the state tournament.

Monroe, which led the entire contest, had just five players score, led by a 13-point performance from senior post Amber Van Brunt. Senior guard Kylee Ferreira and junior guard Emily Donnelly each recorded 10 points, and senior forward Alex Alexander added nine points and 13 rebounds.

“We just got to understand it doesn’t matter who scores as long as we win the basketball game,” Monroe head coach Matt Chalfant said.

Jackson was plagued by 14 turnovers and had just one player score in double figures — junior forward Drew Locknane, with 11 points.

Locknane knocked down all three of her 3-pointers made in the game in the second quarter to help Jackson cut a 13-point deficit to two points by the halftime break. But Monroe limited her to just two free throws the rest of the way.

“We are high-intensity, highoctane on defense,” Chalfant said.

“We try to get deflections and pick you up full court. We are going to get after you. And that’s kind of been our philosophy all season long.”

Panthers From Page C1

bench for much of the first half in foul trouble, both teams were forced to adjust.

The Panthers were able to do it a little bit better.

Lake Stevens managed just six points in the second quarter and finished the first half with 17. Snohomish didn’t fare much better, but good enough to build a 25-17 lead at the break. Junior Ellie Flitsch stepped up in Smith’s absence for the Panthers.

“The key, I thought, in the game was when Maddie Smith was out and Ellie Flitsch went in and scored a couple of times and we were able to keep the lead,” Roberts said.

“That was huge for us because we haven’t been able to do that this year.”

Though his team was down, Lake Stevens head coach Randall Edens felt good about his team’s chances going into the second half. But

After failing to score for the first six minutes of the third quarter, the Timberwolves finished the period on a 7-0 run, capped by a banked 3-pointer by sophomore guard Emily Brown to cut the deficit to five entering the final period.

But the Bearcats opened the final quarter on a 6-0 run and held the T-wolves to just two field goals over the final eight minutes to seal the victory.

“I go back to that second quarter, we played very selfish basketball,” Chalfant said. “At halftime I told them, ‘Look, if you play unselfish, you give up that extra pass, run our offense, we are going to win this game.’ And they did that.”

Jackson finishes the season with a 10-14 record.

Edmonds-Woodway 77, Ferndale 53 FERNDALE — A 31-7 first quarter helped boost Edmonds-Woodway past Ferndale in a 3A District 1 loser-out contest.

Moni Jackson scored a game-high 23 points, including four 3-pointers, to lead the Warriors.

Missy Peterson and Natalie Kasper each scored 17 points, and Mady Burdett added 15 for the Warriors.

the Vikings’ offense continued to struggle.

“Being down eight with everything that had happened, at half, we felt pretty good about it all things considered,” Edens said. “(The Panthers) got a couple of baskets early and we missed an inordinate amount of layups and free-throw shooting for us was really poor. That’s the difference.”

The Panthers built their lead in the third quarter and protected it in the fourth. On each offensive possession in the final quarter they methodically ran clock and came up with several key offensive rebounds to prolong possessions.

“We were able to run off about 50 seconds (on several possessions) and we were able to get some buckets afterwards a few times — great offensive rebounding,” Roberts said.

“We blocked out well and didn’t give them any second-chance points and that was huge too.”

Madison Pollock led the Panthers in scoring with 16 points. Smith added 15.

The real story of the game was the Panthers’ defense, which allowed a

“We’re about team ball and getting the win.”

Saufferer paced the Timberwolves’ offense throughout the game, finishing with 21 points and making three 3-pointers.

For much of the game, Saufferer had more points than the entire Monroe team.

“I had a pretty good game, but it all goes to the team,” Saufferer said. “My teammates got me open and they got me in the

1B Boys Tulalip Heritage 79, NW Yeshiva 69 MARYSVILLE — Robert Miles led all scorers with 33 points, pushing Tulalip Heritage past Northwest Yeshiva in a 1B Tri-District elimination game.

Ophir Amon led Northwest Yeshiva with 27 points, and made seven 3-pointers in the game.

Tulalip Heritage will play another elimination game Friday against either Lummi Nation or Seattle Lutheran, but the Hawks clinched a state tournament berth with the win.

total of just 35 points and held Vandegrift to five.

“Our kids did a really good job of following the gameplan,” Roberts said. “The nice thing about having more days to prepare is that you can kind of go through some sets and you can come up with a plan. The key was, the kids really paid attention in practice this week. I thought we grew up.”

Unlike previous years, getting to the district championship didn’t guarantee both teams a trip to regionals. With the victory, the Panthers guaranteed themselves a trip to the state regional round. Lake Stevens is yet to clinch. The Vikings play Monroe at noon on Saturday at Everett Community College. The winner is on to regionals with the district’s No. 2 seed, while the loser’s season will be over.

“That’s going to be the hardest part,” Edens said. “With the district tournament changing format it’s going to be a little bit unique for all of us, but we’ve had success with (loser-out) games before and we get to see another day and that’s kind of how we have to approach it.”

Saufferer’s offensive performance stood out, but Johnson was just as pleased with his effort on the other end of the floor.

“He was good on defense, too,” Johnson said. “He played both ends of the floor and he guarded well. He played (Rhen Shore) a lot of the time, who is one of their best players in my opinion. I think he had a nice game offensively and defensively.”

cut the deficit to eight.

Patrick and fellow junior post Coleman Grayson added 13 and 10 points, respectively, for the Knights, who finish the year with a record of 11-12. Kamiak fell from second to fifth place in the Wesco 4A standings after losing its final five games of the regular season. The Knights dropped the playoff opener to Cascade, but avoided elimination by knocking off Snohomish 59-56 on Tuesday.

“I’m happy with the season,” Kamiak head coach Cory West said. “Obviously disappointed we didn’t go further. I want those kids to experience going further. ... I’m happy my kids played hard the entire season. There has never been a game where we can say we didn’t play hard.”

While Jackson is able to celebrate, Monroe must refocus and get ready for Saturday’s game against the Bruins.

DAVID J. PHILLIP / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota answers a question during a news conference at the NFL scouting combine on Thursday in Indianapolis. Mariota is projected to be a top pick in this year’s NFL Draft.

Mariota center stage at NFL’s meat market

By Michael Marot Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS — Marcus Mariota looked awfully comfortable on center stage Thursday.

He had the deliberate walk, the calm demeanor and the perfectly plain answers all down. All the Oregon quarterback has to do now is prove it will translate to success in the NFL. The reigning Heisman Trophy winner spent roughly 15 minutes answering questions Thursday at the NFL’s annual scouting and responded with a no-frills approach that had to impress the decision-makers who are trying to decide who goes No. 1 in April.

“As a competitor, any person would tell you that they’re the best,” Mariota said. “I truly believe that in myself. We’ll see whatever decision is made. I’ve got to go in with that mentality.”

There are few questions about Mariota’s resume.

He threw for 4,454 yards, 42 touchdowns and had four interceptions in 2014, leading Oregon to the national championship game and winning college football’s most prized individual trophy. In 2013, he threw for 3,665 yards with 31 TDs and four interceptions.

However, there are concerns about how well the spread offense he thrived in at Oregon will prepare for him for NFL-style offenses. Even Mariota acknowledges there

miss the start of training camp in late July, or may at least be limited at the start of it.

“You know, I’m not sure,” Schneider said. “We are going to monitor him and make sure we do what’s best for long term.

He’s going to be scratching and fighting to get out there as soon as he can, but we just don’t know where he will be.”

Compound this news with Schneider sounding resigned that the Seahawks are about to lose starting cornerback Byron Maxwell to a “strong” market for him in unrestricted free agency next month — plus the fact the team isn’t yet sure if Pro Bowl strong safety Kam Chancellor needs knee surgery — and depth in the secondary has rocketed up Seattle’s priority list for free agency that begins March 10 plus in the draft April 30-May 2.

Do the Seahawks wish Lane had taken a knee for the touchback when he intercepted Tom Brady’s pass five yards deep in the end zone in the Super Bowl, or what?

Schneider said he is having ongoing, “amicable” negotiations with the agent for two-time Super Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson on a new contract beyond his rookie one currently set to expire following the crazy, bargain base salary of $798,651 for the 2015 season. Schneider said there is no timetable on getting Wilson’s deal done.

As for Lynch, Schneider said the Seahawks haven’t gotten any clarity on whether the running back wants to return to play in 2015 — or retire as a 29-year-old star at the height of his popularity, one who led the NFL with 19 total touchdowns this past season.

“Not yet. I think everybody needs time away, especially at that position and the way he runs the ball,” Schneider said. “I’ve talked to his people a bunch, his representatives.

He knows we want him to play.”

The sense is the Seahawks expect him to come back to play the final season of his four-year contract. Schneider has already said Lynch would get a new deal before this coming season to replace his scheduled $5 million base salary and $2 million roster bonus for this year. It would be a contract likely to have a lower base salary but higher bonuses and guarantees, a deal that would lower his salary-cap number for 2015 currently scheduled to be $8.5 million.

Asked if it would surprise him should Lynch actually retire, Schneider said: “Not really. He’s a guy that just kind of beats to his own drum. He does what he wants. He would never let you know one way or the other.

“There have been a lot of great running backs who just walked away. So, I have no

will be challenges in making the transition, things that might not seem so complicated to the average fan.

“I haven’t huddled in a while,” he said.

“It seems like a little detail, but that is kind of a big thing. There are other things as well: Three, five, seven-step drops under center.

That’s all stuff I’ve been able to work on the last month.”

Mariota was supposed to share the stage with Jameis Winston one more time Thursday.

Instead, because of longer-than-anticipated medical exam, Winston’s appearance at Lucas Oil Stadium was delayed until Friday. That’s when the 2013 Heisman winner from Florida State is now expected to speak.

Without Winston around, Mariota had the white-hot spotlight to himself even if that’s not exactly the way he wanted it.

Robert Griffin III and Andrew Luck seemed to enjoy themselves in Indy, Tim Tebow welcomed the attention and Johnny Manziel tried to create a more serious persona.

Mariota stuck to his low-key approach.

“I guess you could say (the doubts) are a little bit of motivation, but it’s not the reason why I’m doing it,” he said. “There’s a purpose of why I’m here and why I’m standing in front of you and that’s because I love the game, I want to be part of this game, I want to be part of this game for a long time. My motivation isn’t to prove anybody wrong.

My motivation is to make a dream come true.”

idea.”

Lynch left his 2014 status in limbo until he ended a mini contract holdout eight days into training camp through late July.

Schneider is trying to move the needle far earlier this time.

“Yeah, we’d like to know soon,” Schneider said, adding the team has a deadline date on Lynch’s choice that is “not for public knowledge.”

That date is likely March 10, the day NFL free agency begins, so the Seahawks know whether they need to sign or draft a feature running back. Schneider said the team remains encouraged by two-minute-offense back Robert Turbin and 2013 second-round pick Christine Michael, but neither has proven ready to be the lead, every-down back coach Pete Carroll’s offense always features. Plus, indications remain that Michael has yet to gain the coaching staff’s full trust.

To be clear: Schneider is merely postulating that with Lynch anything is possible, that you just never know.

Asked if Lynch has given the Seahawks any specific indication he might not come back, the GM said: “No he hasn’t, really.

“He’s the ultimate teammate. The players love him, so does everybody in the building,” Schneider said. “He’d really be missed.

“He hasn’t given us any indication that he would leave or anything. I was asked a question if it would surprise me, and it wouldn’t, just based on the individual. He works his tail off. You know, that’s a hard job he has.

“Marshawn, he’s phenomenal. Obviously he’s a heartbeat guy,” Schneider said.

“A guy like that, you do everything you can to let him go to work. The guy loves playing football.”

Extra points Schneider said DT Brandon Mebane is recovering well from the hamstring he tore in November and that the veteran run-stuffer should be healthy by summer. ... Asked to confirm WR Paul Richardson, who tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his knee Jan. 10 in the divisional-playoff win over Carolina, is unlikely to return until after the regular season begins, Schneider said: “Yeah, that’s going to be a tough one.” ... Seattle’s free agents for 2015 beyond Maxwell include starting LG James Carpenter, DT Kevin Williams, LB Malcolm Smith, DE O’Brien Schofield, WR Ricardo Lockette, QB Tarvaris Jackson and TE Tony Moeaki. Schneider isn’t thinking the team is going to lose most of those guys. “We don’t feel that way. We feel we have a great shot to keep our guys,” the GM said. “That being said, we are not going to do anything different than we have in the past. We are going to claim a player here and there, take our shots. And if anyone wants to trade us a player, we will be open to that. And then we are going to draft well and play some young players.” ... Is the GM over the last-second Super Bowl loss to New England yet? “No, I’m not over it. I think it’s always going to stay with you,” Schneider said. “I think it will stick with us forever. And it will keep driving us towards excellence.”

Point guards on move at NBA trade deadline

By Brian Mahoney Associated Press

Point guards moving quickly made this trade deadline a transition game.

Goran Dragic, Michael Carter-Williams, Reggie Jackson and Brandon Knight all were dealt Thursday in the final hours that trades were allowed, as a number of teams handed their keys to different drivers.

Kevin Garnett also has a new address — his original NBA one. The Timberwolves brought him back to Minnesota by sending Thaddeus Young to Brooklyn.

There were so many players on the move in deals agreed to shortly before the 3 p.m. EST deadline that most of the

transactions were still awaiting NBA approval hours later.

Dragic and Jackson were two players to watch on deadline day, because neither was expected to remain with his team after this season. Both their teams opted to move them rather than risk losing them for nothing.

Phoenix sent Dragic to Miami, getting two firstround picks and a package of players for the Slovenian, a third-team All-NBA selection last season. The Suns filled his spot by acquiring Knight from Milwaukee in a three-team deal with Philadelphia, which sent Carter-Williams to the Bucks.

“I did feel it was time to find a better fit,” Dragic wrote on Twitter, adding

AARON GASH / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Goran Dragic, shown here attempting a layup over Milwaukee’s Zaza Pachulia in January, was traded to Miami on Thursday. He was one of several point guards to change teams at the NBA trade deadline.

“NOW it’s (hash)heatnation time and I’m excited to bring the Dragon’s fire to Miami!!”

Zoran Dragic, Goran’s brother, also went from Phoenix to Miami.

Jackson, who began

the season replacing an injured Russell Westbrook, now will step in for the sidelined Brandon Jennings. The Oklahoma City Thunder sent Jackson to Detroit in a three-way trade that included Utah.

Even backup point guards seemed in demand, with players such as Isaiah Thomas (Boston), Ramon Sessions (Washington), Andre Miller (Sacramento), DJ Augustin (Oklahoma City), Norris Cole (New Orleans) and Pablo Prigioni (Houston) getting new homes.

Some big guys got in on the little guys’ fun, with Enes Kanter getting his wish to leave Utah when he ended up in Oklahoma City as Kendrick Perkins’ replacement.

No. 7 ‘Cats rout USC Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. — Kaleb Tarczewski scored 15 points, Stanley Johnson added 13 in another strong all-around game and No. 7 Arizona jumped on Southern California early in an 87-57 rout Thursday night.

Arizona (23-3, 11-2 Pac-12) did what it was supposed to at home against the conference’s last-place team, overwhelming the Trojans with a slew of dunks and easy baskets at the rim. The Wildcats led by 18 at halftime and didn’t let up to win their 35th straight home game.

Johnson had seven rebounds and six assists, and Tarczewski finished with 10 rebounds. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson added 12 points, and T.J. McConnell had 10 points and seven assists.

USC (10-16, 2-12) held its own through the opening 10 minutes.

Once the Wildcats hit the throttle, the Trojans stood no chance.

Malik Martin had 15 points to lead USC, which shot 31 percent and was 5 of 22 from 3-point range.

Arizona’s main objective against the young Trojans was to avoid a letdown with a showdown against UCLA coming up on Saturday.

The Wildcats have already had three unexpected losses to unranked opponents: UNLV, Oregon State and rival Arizona State.

Southern Cal entered Thursday’s game with two Pac-12 wins, the latest over Oregon State on Saturday to snap a nine-game losing streak.

The Trojans have had trouble finishing games, losing by single digits in five of their past seven.

Utah 47, Oregon St. 37 CORVALLIS, Ore. — Dakarai Tucker scored 11 points as No. 9 Utah handed Oregon State their first loss in 15 games at home on Thursday night.

Delon Wright added nine points, nine rebounds and five assists for the Utes (21-4, 11-2 Pac-12).

Malcom Duvivier scored 12 points for the Beavers (16-10, 7-7).

Both teams scrambled and scrapped on defense, making for a low-scoring affair.

Utah shot 42.5 percent for the game, while Oregon State shot 33.3 percent.

Seven minutes in, Utah was up 5-4.

The Utes had five shots and four turnovers at that point, while the Beavers were shooting only 2-9.

Utah led 16-14 at the half.

The Utes were able to pull ahead in the second half as Oregon State suffered through a 2-15 shooting slump.

ended a busy season of swaps in which contenders such as Cleveland, Memphis and Dallas refused to wait for the last minute to get their dealing done, having upgraded long ago.

Other teams had their chance Thursday, and Portland may have done it with the first completed deal of the day when it acquired Arron Afflalo from Denver.

“Arron is a proven winner with playoff experience who will be easily integrated into our culture,” Blazers general manager Neil Olshey said.

“He possesses a skill set that complements our style of play on both ends of the floor and will make an immediate impact as we continue our playoff push.

Gonzaga forward Kyle Wiltjer puts in a breakaway layup against Pacific on Thursday night. Wiltjer led all scorers with 45 points as the No. 3 Bulldogs beat the Tigers 86-74.

Wiltjer’s 45 lift Zags Gonzaga wins 20th straight, earns share of WCC title

By Josh Dubow Associated Press

STOCKTON, Calif. — Kyle Wiltjer scored 45 points for Gonzaga’s highest-scoring game in 54 years and the thirdranked Bulldogs tied a school record with their 20th straight win, 86-74 over Pacific on Thursday night.

Gary Bell Jr. added 12 points as the Bulldogs (27-1, 15-0 West Coast Conference) used another strong shooting night to roll to a victory. Gonzaga, which leads the nation in shooting at 52.7 percent, made 60 percent of its shots, keyed by a 15-for-22 night by Wiltjer.

T.J Wallace scored 19 points, David Taylor added 18 and Ray Bowles had 13 for the Tigers (10-17, 2-13), who have lost eight straight games.

The Bulldogs struggled to pull away from the last-place Tigers after opening up a double-digit lead midway through the first half. Taylor hit three of his five 3-pointers early in the second half and Pacific got the deficit down to seven with just under 7 minutes left.

But Wiltjer hit a 3-pointer and a pair of layups to build the lead back to 11 as the Bulldogs cruised to maintain their perfect conference record.

Wiltjer scored 18 of Gonzaga’s 22 points during a 12-minute stretch in the second half. He hit a 3-pointer in the closing seconds to give him 45 points, the most by a Bulldogs player since Frank Burgess scored a school-record 52 on Jan. 26, 1961.

Wiltjer got started early, scoring nine points in the first

5 minutes, including seven straight during a 10-0 run that gave Gonzaga a 17-9 lead.

The Tigers managed to keep the deficit manageable by hitting six 3-pointers in the first half. But Wiltjer did not cool off a bit and his 3-pointer late in the half gave him 22 points and made it 45-35.

The 20-game win streak for the Zags ties a school record.

Gonzaga also won 20 games in a row in 2003-04 and 2005-06.

The Bulldogs hit their first six 3-pointers.

The Tigers have lost five straight meetings to the Bulldogs, including all four since entering the WCC last season.

Pacific’s only win against Gonzaga came in 1976.

On Saturday, Gonzaga visits Saint Mary’s and Pacific hosts Portland.

Jerome Kersey, who in the 1990s helped take the Portland Trail Blazers to the National Basketball Association finals twice and won the title with the San Antonio Spurs during a 17-year playing career, has died.

His death was reported Wednesday on the Blazers website. A cause of death hadn’t been determined, the team said.

On Feb. 17 he appeared at a Portland, Oregon, high school for a Black History Month event with fellow former Blazers teammates Terry Porter and Brian Grant, the Oregonian reported. The next day, he was taken by ambulance from his home to Legacy Meridian Medical Center in Tualatin, Oregon, where he died, the newspaper said. Kersey had knee surgery earlier this week, according to Comcast SportsNet Northwest.

A 6-foot-7 small forward, Kersey averaged 10.3 points and 5.5 rebounds from 1984 to 2001 with Portland, the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Seattle Supersonics, San Antonio Spurs and Milwaukee Bucks. He spent 11 seasons with the Trail Blazers.

Kersey won an NBA championship with the Spurs in 1999 and reached the league’s finals with Portland in 1990 and 1992.

“Today we lost an incredible person and one of the most beloved players to ever wear a Trail Blazers uniform,” owner Paul Allen said in a statement released by the team late last night. “It’s a terrible loss.”

At the time of his death, Kersey was director of alumni relations for the Blazers and was part of the team’s social responsibility department.

“Jerome was an incredible influence on our players as a model for life after basketball,” team President Neil Olshey said in the release. “He set the bar extremely high with his long-lasting influence in this community.”

Kersey was born on June 26, 1962, in Clarksville, Virginia, according to Basketball-Reference.com. He played college basketball from 1980-84 at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia, when it was a Division II team, below the top level of collegiate competition.

Seattle U falls to Kangaroos Herald Wire Services KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Seattle’s Taelor Ross finished with a double-double of 18 points and 12 rebounds, but UMKC’s Grace Mitchell made a pair of free throws with 12 seconds remaining to beat the Redhawks 62-61 on Thursday.

Masha Shtikel’s attempt at a game-winning 3-pointer was blocked in the final seconds for Seattle (7-19 overall, 4-7 league).

The Mariners are counting on center fielder Austin Jackson to hit better than the .229 average he posted after being acquired from Detroit on July 31 of last year.

needed, can play a corner, and Ruggiano also is viewed as a viable backup to Jackson in center. Weeks might also draw duty in right field.

So McClendon has a lot of options.

What the Mariners need most is a return to form by Jackson, who proved a massive disappointment last year after arriving from Detroit in a July 31 deadline deal: a .229/.267/.260 slash (batting average/on base percentage/ slugging percentage) in 54 games.

If Jackson approaches his career norms (.274/.336/.402), he figures to

The locks Cruz, Ackley, Jackson, Smith and Ruggiano are all locks. Count Weeks, too, although we slotted him earlier this week among the infielders.

Spring battles Attention will focus on Weeks’ ability to make a smooth transition to the outfield after spending all 12 of his professional seasons solely as a second baseman.

If Weeks succeeds, it ratchets up the pressure on Ackley to avoid the extended slumps

that plagued him in the past.

Ackley delivered a .274/.313/.463 slash last year from July 1 through the end of the season. Similar production should keep him in the lineup — at least against right-handed pitchers.

Help if needed The Mariners armed themselves with veteran depth by re-signing Endy Chavez and Franklin Gutierrez. Both will be in camp on minor-league deals.

Chavez is likely the first option if an opening occurs.

Gutierrez didn’t play last year because of ongoing gastrointestinal issues and has lots to prove in terms of health and on-field play.

Signing Weeks also put a serious crimp in any chance for James Jones or Stefen Romero to make the club out of spring training. Both played a lot last year but figure to be on call at Triple-A Tacoma.

Pat Kivlehan and Jordy Lara are each in big-league camp for the first time after producing breakout seasons in the minors. Both should get a long look in the first few weeks.

Kivlehan, a former Everett AquaSox, is more advanced and sufficiently versatile — he can play the infield and outfield corners. He spent most of last season at Double-A Jackson and, if he continues on pace, could warrant a big-league call at some point this year.

PEORIA, Ariz. — Freeagent signee Nelson Cruz started to make the transition last year, while playing in Baltimore, from outfielder to designated hitter. He also led the majors with 40 home runs.

Look for that positional trend to escalate this season.

The Mariners shelled out $57 million in a four-year deal to Cruz because they wanted — needed — an impact bat for the middle of their lineup.

Not a suspect glove.

Cruz’s outfield time will be limited primarily to those days when Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon wants to ease the workload on Robinson Cano or Kyle Seager by having them serve as the DH. Otherwise, Seattle’s outfield shapes up as Austin Jackson in center and lots of options for the corners. Left fielder Dustin Ackley returns, but the Mariners have veteran newcomers in Seth Smith, Justin Ruggiano and Rickie Weeks.

The tentative plan points to Smith and Ruggiano serving as a platoon in right, and Weeks battling Ackley for time in left — if Weeks proves he can play the outfield.

Smith and Ruggiano, if

CHICAGO — Chicago Cubs players will wear patches bearing Ernie Banks’ No. 14 this season.

The Cubs announced Thursday the patches will be worn on both home and away jerseys in honor

of the most beloved player in team history. Banks, a Hall-of-Famer, died last month at age 83.

Banks played for the Cubs his entire 19-year career. He was a 14-time All-Star, two-time National League MVP and finished with 512 career home runs.

Wilhelmsen, M’s appear headed for arbitration

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

PEORIA, Ariz. — The Seattle Mariners appear headed for their first salary-arbitration hearing in 12 years, barring a late agreement with relief pitcher Tom Wilhelmsen.

The two sides are scheduled to present their case to a three- Tom p e r s o n Wilhelmsen panel Friday in Florida. The Panel is expected to render a decision on Saturday. All arbitration hearings must be completed by Friday.

Wilhelmsen, 31, is seeking $2.2 million after going 3-2 with a 2.27 ERA in 57 games last season. The Mariners offered $1.4 million. Wilhelmsen made $528,800 in 2014.

The panel must choose one of the two submitted figures. A negotiated settlement is permissible until the panel issues a ruling.

The Mariners haven’t had a player’s salary determined through arbitration since losing a case to pitcher Freddy Garcia in 2003. Garcia won his request for $6.88 million over the Mariners’ filing of $5.9 million. He made $3.8 million in 2002, when he was 16-10 with a 4.39 ERA. The hearing process allows one hour for each side to present its argument. Each side is then permitted a 30-minute rebuttal and 30 additional minutes to sum up its case.

In Snohomish, Emerson Elementary School teacher Kim Moritz is helped by Sylvie Ojala, 8 and Maggie McGowan, 9, as the school’s third-graders fill large containers with a planting mix for a vegetable garden.

Cultivating knowledge Emerson third-graders are planting vegetable and butterfly gardens

By Rikki King Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — They get to dig in the dirt. That’s half the fun.

Third-graders at Emerson Elementary in Snohomish have been working on a vegetable garden and a butterfly garden on campus. The students have been learning about the life cycle of the butterfly as part of the project.

On Jan. 29, the kids helped move and break up a fresh load of soil. Asia Kajla, 8, used gloved hands to shovel dirt into the buckets being carried to the garden by teachers and volunteers.

“There are going to be butterflies, and I love butterflies,” she said. “I’ve learned a lot of big scientific words.”

Emerson has about 340 students in grades three through six.

Second-graders from nearby Central Primary Center are making birdbaths so that when they arrive for third grade in the fall, they’ll have something “to recognize as theirs,” said Kelly O’Donaughy, PTA co-vice president.

A butterfly-shaped mosaic sign planned for the garden will feature a piece contributed by each student at Emerson, said thirdgrade teacher Kim Moritz, who is coordinating the gardens.

“It will be cool,” she said. “Every student at Emerson will be contributing in some way.”

At one point during a recent gardening time, volunteer Sara Weber Quinton asked the kids: “Does anyone want to take a break?”

The answer came in unison: “No!” The vegetable garden, started a few years ago, has produced carrots, snow peas and lettuce, Weber Quinton said. The kids get to eat some of the food, and some of this year’s bounty will go to the food bank, Moritz said.

How to help Classes at Emerson Elementary in Snohomish are working on a vegetable garden and butterfly garden on campus. Donation needs include arches, garden tools, gloves, outdoor benches and wheelbarrows.

An art project related to the gardens also has donation needs, such as birdhouses, crafting supplies and sandpaper. For more information, call 360-563-7173.

Mukilteo school staff recognized for talents

Sheriff’s Office honors employees, volunteers

Tory Kartchner, a math teacher at Mariner High School, and Laurie Gossett, an administrative assistant in the Mukilteo School District office, were the winners of the first-semester Lighthouse Award, the highest honor that can be bestowed on a Mukilteo School District employee. Both were honored for excellence in their positions, personal effect, positive relationships and for their special contributions of time, talent or effort to students, staff, the district and the community.

The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office on Feb. 18 recognized more than 40 employees and volunteers at its annual awards ceremony. This year’s ceremony included a special tribute to those who responded to the Highway 530 slide on March 22, 2014, killing 43 Snohomish County residents.

“2014 was a year of many changes and challenges and I’m honored to recognize the staff and volunteers who went above and beyond in so many ways,” Sheriff Ty Trenary said.

Deputies and officers were recognized for responding to the more notable of the 257,000 calls for service the agency received last year, including the Marysville Pilchuck High School shooting. Several corrections employees also received awards for their work on changes that made the jail a safer place for staff and inmates.

The “Tribute to Oso” recognized the work of several Sheriff’s Office personnel and volunteers, including the Major Crimes Unit, in completing a reliable list of the missing and, in collaboration with the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office, identifying all 43 victims recovered in the slide. The work

Commission ideas draw bipartisan praise T

here is rising confidence across the Senate and House armed services committees that 2015 will be the year Congress passes legislation to modernize military compensation, with an alternative to traditional 20-year retirement and perhaps replacing the tripleoption Tricare health program.

After decades of rejecting military compensation studies, whether from teams of Pentagon analysts or independent blue ribbon panels, Congress this year appears to be embracing the clever weave of proposals prepared by the Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission.

Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Missouri, said it was “extraordinary” that nine commissioners endorse their proposals unanimously.

So before her colleagues are “off to the races trying to politicize” them, she advised, they ought to “pause a moment and realize that you might just have gotten this right, and this might be exactly what we need to be doing.”

Sen. John McCain, R-Arizona, new chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, pledged to keep the wellbeing of military members and families “foremost in our thoughts as we deliberate the commission recommendations. But upholding our sacred obligation to them does not mean resisting change at every turn. We must not shrink from the opportunity before us to create a modern system of compensation and retirement

TOM PHILPOTT MILITARY UPDATE benefits that would provide greater value and choice.”

The new chairman of the military personnel subcommittee, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, warned commission critics, “If you think they missed a mark, we will certainly listen to you. But we’re not going to play the demagoguery game because change is afoot and it’s necessary.”

McCain and Graham have told staff they hope to include at least some commission recommendations in the fiscal 2016 defense authorization bill.

As military folks try to grasp the complex commission plans, Congress this week also received a fresh set of proposals from the Obama administration, part of its fiscal 2016 defense budget request, to continue to dampen growth in basic pay and allowances. That budget package asks Congress to consolidate Tricare options, raise Tricare fees sharply on working-age retirees, set a first-ever enrollment fee for new Medicare-eligible retirees using Tricare for Life, and raise

pharmacy co-payments.

Obama wants the January 2016 military pay raise capped at 1.3 percent, a point below percent wage growth in the private sector. His budget proposes a string of “limited” pay raises through 2020. It would continue to damp annual adjustments to Basic Allowance for Housing until recipients pay 5 percent of rental and utility costs out of pocket.

The budget also proposes more cuts to annual subsidy for the Defense Commissary Agency, enough so that base grocery store patrons see store operating days or hours cut, although not below five days a week.

These budget changes would lower compensation costs by $1.7 billion next year and by $18 billion through 2020. They are separate from commission recommendations. Several, such as consolidating Tricare options, even conflict with commission plans. Commissioners want Tricare replaced with a menu of private sector insurance options and two-part Basic Allowance for Health Care. One part would cover full premiums of a midrange health insurance plan. A self-directed portion of BAHC, to cover co-pays and deductibles, could be windfall cash for families if they become discerning users of their health insurance benefit.

The most uncertain feature of the commission’s health plan is its vision that private insurance plans would be required to include base medical staff and facilities in its network of

providers, and that those care providers would see enough challenging cases to sustain wartime medical skills. To help in that regard, the commission proposes of a new joint readiness command to oversee all aspects of readiness including medical skills at base hospitals.

On retirement, current members could stay under their High-3 plan, which pays an immediate annuity after at least 20 years service, or they could shift to the new plan mandated for new entrances. It would blend a reduced defined benefit, one that pays 40 percent rather than 50 percent of basic pay as an immediate annuity after 20 years, with a Thrift Savings Plan that has government matching of member contributions up to 5 percent of basic pay. After only two years, members would be fully vested in their TSP accounts to take with them if they separate short of 20 years.

The commission proposes using post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to protect force retention under plan. The education benefit could be transferred to dependents only after 10 years of service and in exchange for serving only two more years. At the 12-year mark, members could get lump sum continuation pay equal to at least two-and-a-half months’ basic pay, if they agree to serve four more years. At 20 years, they would eligible for immediate annuity equal to at least 40 percent of basic pay. Or they could opt for a reduced annuity

and some retirement cash in a lump sum, or they could get a bigger lump sum and defer any annuity until they also are eligible for social security. That old age annuity would equal what peers receive who had elected to accept full annuities at retirement.

The commission said computer modeling shows this more complex choice of benefits still would produce healthy retention rates, save billions of dollars a year, and give the vast majority of members who leave service short of 20 years a nest egg equivalent to civilian employer 401(k) plans.

More than 90 percent of current first-termers likely would shift to the new retirement system if given that option, commissioners testified. Some lawmakers on the armed services committees gushed over the plan, calling it bold and thorough. Others were cautious but not critical.

The 70-year-old retirement system and a Tricare program launched in the mid-1990s “were appropriate for their time,” said McCain. “But clearly times have changed.”

Still to be heard from are military associations and veterans groups who have criticized past plans to overhaul compensation as radical and risky, endangering the nation’s defense.

Airline short-changed shuttle reimbursement Q: I need your help getting British Airways to honor a promise it made. This fall, my friend’s and my return flight from Athens to Baltimore via London was delayed. British Airways paid for our hotel in London and offered to fly us back to the States the next day. But it didn’t have any availability on its flights to Baltimore, so it offered to fly us to Dulles, which is about 60 miles from Baltimore.

A British Airways agent in London assured us that the airline would fully reimburse us for all expenses, which included the shuttle fee of $165. I filed a claim, and British Airways agreed to pay only $77, saying it could not “justify” paying more.

I do not intend to fly on British Airways if it continues to treat passengers in this manner. Also, being a travel agent, I will not promote any travel on British Airways for my clients.

I hope you can help us get our full reimbursement. — Chintha Kuruppunayake, Baltimore A: When an airline employee

tells you the airline will “fully” reimburse you for a shuttle, you should expect it to do exactly that. No hemming and hawing.

No ifs, ands or buts. Your flight back to the Washington area was delayed, then British Airways offered you an alternate flight and said it would pay for your shuttle.

That’s the end of it, as far as I’m concerned.

Here’s what happened: British Airways appears to have done its own research and discovered that you could book a one-way shuttle between Dulles and BWI for about $77. So it agreed to cut

Curious wife finds surprise in hubby’s medical records Dear Abby: I recently started working at the hospital where my husband receives his primary care.

One afternoon, out of curiosity, I accessed his medical records. In his file it was noted that he is high risk for STDs. In fact, he was treated for two different ones some years back.

I have been tested for STDs during all my annual physicals, and the results were always negative. I think it’s because we often go for weeks without any sexual contact.

What should I do with this information? How do I talk to him about it without letting him know that I’m aware of his medical history? — Concerned In Massachusetts Dear Concerned: Unless you claim to be clairvoyant, I don’t see how you can discuss this without admitting you accessed his medical records, which is against the law. Be prepared for him to be irate. You are lucky your husband hasn’t given you an STD. By all means talk with him about this, if only to find out whether you have sex so infrequently because he’s having relations with other people. Now that you know what has been going on, you have some serious thinking to do about staying in this marriage.

Dear Abby: I had an abusive boyfriend who, I realized later, had abused his wife and children. After we broke up, my close friend and neighbor asked me if I’d mind if she went out with him. I initially said no, but after thinking about it, I thought how could she? She knew how he had treated me, pushing, shoving and isolating me from my friends.

I had words with her about it, and she said she wasn’t there, so she didn’t RIP HAYWIRE

Please don’t waste your time being angry. You are lucky to be rid of your abuser before he caused you physical harm.

Dear Abby: A woman I know has a husband who is deployed. I would like to send her a card offering support and love, to tell her how thankful I am for both of their sacrifices in the service of our country.

Can you assist with wording? I don’t want to come across wrong or say something that could offend. I ran across an article on what NOT to say to military wives, and I’m afraid I may have committed a faux pas and don’t want to do it again. — Civilian In Iowa Dear Civilian: If you think you “may” have committed a breach of etiquette, call the woman and offer an apology. Explain that you read an article about what not to say to military wives, and hope you didn’t offend her. Offer to stay in touch — if that’s what she would like — so you can let her know she and her husband are in your thoughts, and let her suggest other ways you might be helpful.

Since East will play no part in the defense, West has no reason to lead the queen of hearts to keep communication. He should lead the ace.

There are 314 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight: On Feb. 20, 1905, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Jacobson v. Massachusetts, upheld, 7-2, compulsory vaccination laws intended to protect the public’s health. (The case involved a Swedish immigrant, Henning Jacobson, who refused to pay a $5 fine for refusing to be vaccinated against smallpox; the Court upheld the right of states to penalize individuals who rejected vaccinations, but did not say they could be forcibly vaccinated.)

On this date: In 1792, President George Washington signed an act creating the U.S. Post Office.

In 1862, William Wallace Lincoln, the 11-year-old son of President Abraham Lincoln and first lady Mary Todd Lincoln, died at the White House, apparently of typhoid fever.

Hirsch in rehab, doesn’t remember attacking exec Actor Emile Hirsch does not remember events of the night he is accused of attacking a studio executive because he was drunk, his attorney wrote in a statement.

The actor checked into rehab within days of the incident and remains in treatment, attorney Robert Offer wrote in a statement obtained Friday.

“Regarding the charges that have been brought against Emile Hirsch today, the facts that I can relay are that he consumed an enormous amount of alcohol on the evening in question and he doesn’t have any memory of what happened at the time of the allegations,” Offer wrote.

“However, Emile takes these allegations very seriously, and is devastated that any of this has occurred. “ The “Into the Wild” actor was charged in Utah on Thursday with felony aggravated assault over an incident in which a studio executive accused Hirsch

authorities.”

Hirsch is charged with attacking Daniele Bernfeld, an executive at Insurge Pictures, a subsidiary of Paramount Pictures. The incident occurred during the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.

Court documents say the altercation occurred Jan. 25 at a nightclub, when Hirsch, looking drunk, approached

Bernfeld and asked why she looked “so tough.”

He also said she was a “rich kid who should not be at Sundance,” court filings state.

Investigators say Hirsch grabbed Bernfeld and she pushed him away. He left and sat with friends before coming back and grabbing the woman from behind, the documents state.

She was put in a chokehold and pulled across the table before Hirsch landed on top of her on the floor, authorities said.

Bernfeld told authorities she saw things going dark and might have blacked out momentarily.

Hirsch is scheduled to make his first court appearance on March 16. He also faces a misdemeanor count of intoxication.

Offer is Hirsch’s entertainment lawyer. The actor is being represented in the criminal case by Utah attorney Neil Kaplan and Los Angeles attorney Blair Berk.

Elsewhere, on Orcas Island in Puget Sound, Anne Baker has a terrible secret. She was a former scientist on Morey Island, where the Bigfoot Experiments and the kidnap of Chad Gamin had taken place, but she was cleared of all wrongdoing. The laboratories were burned down and now years later, no one knows about her own experiments. She wonders if they survived the fires. The only way to know for sure is for her to return to Morey Island and pray that her worst nightmares do not become true. “‘The Bigfoot Contagion’ is the first book in a planned trilogy called

the Legacy of the Sasquatch Encounters,” Clint Romag said. “Events that occurred in the previous series The Sasquatch Encounters have direct effect on the troubles these new characters will face especially from the story ‘Bigfoot in Forks’ which can be found in ‘The Sasquatch Encounters SHORTS: The Complete Collection.’ Forks, Washington will have to deal with a new threat, a new type of Bigfoot that not only endangers the town, but the state and if left unchecked, the entire world.

EVERETT FILM FESTIVAL

Lake Stevens native Leavitt feeling ‘Lucky’

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

EVERETT — Film producer Lacey Leavitt remembers having a crush on Chris Pratt during her freshman year at Lake Stevens High School.

While Pratt went on to stardom in television and movie roles, Leavitt has garnered attention for her work as well.

Leavitt, 32, will be the star of the opening gala Friday during the Everett Film Festival at the Everett Performing Arts Center.

Her film “Lucky Them” will be screened as the main event at the gala and Leavitt will lead a question-and-answer session after the showing.

The Everett Film Festival had its start in 1997, dedicated to highlighting the strength, humor and creativity of women through provocative and entertaining films, said festival director Teresa Henderson. Over the years, the festival broadened its view to embrace films made by women and movies offering insight into the lives of women.

Growing up, Leavitt was one of those quintessential bossy girls — smart, organized and goal-oriented.

Her leadership skills blossomed at the University of Washington where she learned while working on her classmates’ films that she was good producer material.

“I studied comparative literature and enjoyed writing. I’d always wanted to be involved in creating or telling stories,” Leavitt said. “I thought about being a journalist and even had a summer internship at The Herald.”

Film producer Lacey Leavitt (left) and director Megan Griffiths work on the set of “Lucky Them” in 2013 on Capitol Hill in Seattle. Thomas Haden Church and Toni Collette star in the film.

After college, Leavitt was introduced to someone who offered her a job as a producers’ assistant in New York. The movie was the art-house comedy-drama “The Squid and the Whale,”

by Noah Baumbach and Wes Anderson, starring Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney.

“I was so lucky,” Leavitt said. “I obtained great insight and knowledge on that project, learning a new language that didn’t make sense until we were making the film.”

After returning to Seattle, Leavitt made the documentary “Blood on the Flat Track: The Rise of the Rat City Rollergirls.”

“I fell in love with roller derby and the women in the Seattle area who do that sport,” Leavitt said.

At some point, while working on short films

and for the Seattle International Film Festival, Leavitt met the independent film director Megan Griffith.

“I had seen her debut film, ‘First Aid for Choking,’ from 2003 and remembered that I liked it, and she liked it that I had seen it,” Leavitt said. “We became good friends and collaborators.”

Leavitt served as a producer on Griffith’s narrative shorts “Moving” and “Eros” along with features “The Off Hours” and “The Catechism Cataclysm,” which were shown at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival.

Griffith’s “Lucky Them” was filmed in King County and stars Toni Collette, Thomas Haden Church and Oliver Platt and debuted at the 2013

Toronto Film Festival.

“We knew we could make it well here,” Leavitt said of making the film in Seattle. “The script called for a waterfall. It had to be Snoqualmie Falls. Seattle gets to play Seattle in the movie, and basically it’s a love letter to our area.”

The crew was pleased with the cast, too.

“Toni Collette was amazing. She embodied the character in an amazing way.”

Her character is a music critic sent by her editor to find her rock-icon former boyfriend. She is rough around the edges, sarcastic and, ultimately, deep, Leavitt said.

“And Tom (Haden Church) hasn’t been as good since ‘Sideways.’

It was great to let him improvise.”

Also in the film is a cameo by a real movie star, who “was a real treat.

You have to see the movie to know who it is, but I will say I haven’t seen this man play someone so authentic.”

Leavitt also was a producer on “Laggies,” a new romantic comedy starring Keira Knightley, Chloe Grace Moretz and Sam Rockwell, and shares the executive producing role with Griffiths for “The Greens Are Gone,” a drama starring Catherine Keener, Anton Yelchin and Kaitlyn Dever, still in post-production.

“I have been fortunate in my career thus far,” Leavitt said. “But it’s also been hard work.”

Leavitt said she would like to stay in Seattle.

“It’s really imperative

French ‘Girlhood’ revels in youthful energy, ambition

ROBERT HORTON

T

here’s no parallel between the American film “Boyhood” and the French film “Bande de Filles,” except that a clever marketer thought it would be useful to have “Girlhood” be the title for the latter movie.

Can’t blame them for that one, but “Girlhood” stands on its own as a thoughtful, non-judgmental look at a lost teen who finds definition over the course of a few rocky months. Her name is Marieme (Karidja Toure), a wary girl whose mother works nights as a janitor — the parental figure is barely seen in this youth-ruled scenario.

Marieme’s older brother is a bully, and she seems to have made herself as plain and

anonymous as possible. One day at school (the story takes place in a housing development on the outskirts of Paris), she falls in with a trio of cool girls.

They are led by the glammedup Lady (Assa Sylla), and their

habits include shoplifting, taunting other groups of girls, and connecting over their shared sense of displacement. A lipsynching scene to Rihanna’s “Diamonds” shows their powerful bond better than 20 pages of dialogue could.

Writer-director Celine Sciamma is white, but she brings no outsider perspective to this clique of black teenagers; whatever kind of trouble they might get into, the movie stays right at that level, letting us understand how that stuff might happen with decent kids.

Most of the material falls into the category of closely-observed behavior, from Marieme’s tentative romance with a guy who’s friendly with her brother (he’s afraid of making a move because the brother could get rough with him) to the way Marieme tries to enact a motherly role toward her two younger sisters. The movie doesn’t spend a whole lot of time with the sisters, but it’s a tribute to Sciamma’s economical storytelling that you can see the writing on the wall for these children in desperate need of supervision.

Not everything in the movie works that well, but “Girlhood” is definitely better than the average coming-of-age tale.

When Marieme truly begins to fall through the safety net, the

“Girlhood” ★★★ This study of teenage girls testing their boundaries in a poor suburb of Paris doesn’t quite reach its ambitions, but it has some strong observations and stays right at the nonjudgmental level of its youthful protagonists. In French, with English subtitles.

Rating: Not rated; probably PG-13 for violence, subject matter Showing: SIFF Uptown theater

film looks as though it’s going to take on epic proportions — but it doesn’t fulfill those ambitions.

At the core, though, is that persuasive portrait of how other people make a difference, and how these girls are brightened by their shared experience — like diamonds in the rough, as the song puts it.

‘Hard to Be a God’ slings mud, says relatively little

By Robert Horton Herald Movie Critic

Perhaps it is hard to be a god, according to the title of this sprawling Russian epic. But everybody else looks miserable too.

We are in a world called Arkanar, invented by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky for a speculative 1964 novel that must be easier to understand than this film.

Arkanar is a pigsty, a horror show, a decadent party at James Franco’s house. It resembles the muddier years of Earth’s Middle Ages, but we are told it is a planet where the society has developed more slowly than ours.

We are also told (and this is important to grasp in the movie’s

swirl) that our main character, Don Rumata (Leonid Yarmolnik), is actually a visitor from Earth. He pretends to be a god in Arkanar, passing through the squalid society and observing it.

The film’s 177 minutes are oozing with bodily fluids, casual brutality, and complete disdain for anything like conventional suspense or storytelling. Director Aleksei German uses black-andwhite and an incredibly complex soundtrack to immerse us in this unpleasant world, his camera snaking around cramped interiors and muddy hillsides.

It would be no exaggeration to claim “Hard to Be a God” as one of the most densely designed movies ever made; somewhere in the world Terry Gilliam is

weeping in despair at ever approaching its level of beastly creativity.

German (who died in 2013, before completing post-production) was some kind of visionary, and labored for many years on this project. His previous movie, “Khrustalyov, My Car!” (1998), was arguably more connected to recognizable reality, but was just as baffling in its refusal to submit to audience expectations.

Presumably German is showing us human existence, refracted through his cracked lens. But the film seems less about ideas than about creating a troubling experience, one in which the viewer is constantly assailed by things being

“Hard to Be a God” ★★★ A three-hour Russian epic about a visitor to a planet experiencing the equivalent of Earth’s Middle Ages. Visionary director Aleksei German buries the audience in bodily fluids and casual brutality, and while the movie is an incredible feat of design, it’s not always clear how this illuminates the human condition. In Russian, with English subtitles.

Rating: Not rated; probably R for violence, nudity Showing: Northwest Film Forum thrown at the camera: birds, weapons, excrement.

As a fully-imagined carnival, “Hard to Be a God” is astonishing, but it’s hard to discern how it sheds light on mankind’s backward character, or guess for whom the film is intended.

“I’m speaking to you,” says a

character in the film, “but that doesn’t mean we’re having a conversation.”

We are shown that the world is a cesspool, in repetitive detail, for three hours. It’s an incredible looking-and-sounding immersion, but not quite a conversation.

DALE SUTTON

Justin Tinsley (left) and Sarita Benson star in “Death by Chocolate” by the Edmonds Driftwood Players at the Wade James Theatre. The play opens Feb. 20.

Christie, the undisputed queen of theatrical murder mysteries, tells the tale of Clarissa, the second wife of Henry Hailsham-Brown, a woman adept at spinning tales of adventure for their bored diplomatic circle.

When a murder takes place in her drawing room she finds real drama much harder to cope with, especially as she suspects the murderer might be her

young stepdaughter, Pippa.

Worse still, the victim is the man who broke up Henry’s first marriage. Clarissa’s dramatic flair only serves to cloudy the waters as she and her guests try to determine the culprit and outwit the police.

The production’s cast and crew, under the direction of Victoria Ritchey, hail from Seattle, Bothell, Lake Stevens,

of Langley. People who want to help solve the mystery should come to the Langley Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Center on Anthes Street at 10 a.m. Saturday morning to buy a clue map and a copy of the Gazette with details of the murder.

5th Avenue brings lively ‘Carousel’ to the stage

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

SEATTLE — This isn’t your grandma’s “Carousel.”

That’s the line the 5th Avenue Theatre is using to market its current production of the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, which runs through March 1.

The production’s stage design is representative only, the choreography is contemporary and a turntable in the middle of the stage keeps the action moving.

If your grandmother is still alive, you may not even know much about this classic piece of theater.

“Carousel” opened 70 years ago on Broadway and includes some of the most beloved melodies in the American musical theater canon, including “If I Loved You” and “June is Bustin’ Out All Over.”

The 5th Avenue does it justice with performances by some of the best local musical theater actors (many with Broadway experience) and a 21-piece orchestra, which demands attention during the overture, entr’acte and finale.

This production proves, once again, that the Seattle region has one of the best and most vibrant theater scenes in the nation.

The 5th’s “Carousel” is true to Richard Rodgers’ and Oscar Hammerstein’s intentions that it be a heartbreaking tale of love, tragedy and redemption.

Set near the end of the 19th century in a town on the Maine coast, it is the story of a swaggering

If you go Rodgers & Hammerstein’s “Carousel” is at the 5th Avenue Theatre through March 1, 1308 Fifth Ave., Seattle.

Tickets: Starting at $29, are available online at www.5thavenue.org, by phone at 206-625-1900, or at the box office, 1308 Fifth Ave., Seattle.

carnival barker named Billy Bigelow who captivates and marries a local mill worker named Julie Jordan.

Billy loses his job just as he learns that Julie is pregnant. Intent upon providing for his family, he desperately allows himself to be coerced into committing a robbery.

Nothing goes well after that until Billy is allowed to return from the afterlife for one day. His daughter, now 15, is haunted by her father’s reputation as a thief and bully.

Directed by Bill Berry and choreographed by Donald Byrd, the cast includes the lovely Laura Griffith as the strongwilled Julie and the talented Brandon O’Neill as the hard-living Billy.

The chemistry between these two is so good that the duo has been cast in ACT’s April production of “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.”

Also brilliant are soprano Billie Wildrick, who grew up in Snohomish and will star in Village Theatre’s “Cabaret” later this year, as the cute and comical Carrie, the girl who marries Enoch Snow, portrayed by baritone Joshua Downs.

Anne Allgood plays Julie’s cousin Nettie, who encourages her with the anthem, “You’ll Never

Walk Alone.” Eric Ankrim is Billy’s scheming friend Jigger and Cynthia Jones is Mrs. Mullin, who runs the carnival.

This show is the fourth major collaboration with Spectrum Dance Theater, which includes Madelyn Kock dancing the role of Louise, Billy’s and Julie’s daughter.

The fantastic ensemble is packed with people who previously starred in musicals at the 5th and Village, among others.

Noahs, father and son, to perform Saturday in Snohomish

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — Singersongwriter Tim Noah is looking forward to Saturday’s concert with the pride of a father and the eagerness of a musician who will perform with someone he admires.

Noah will be joined by his son, violinist Jude, at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 21, at the Thumbnail Theatre, 1211 Fourth S., Snohomish.

Tickets, $20, are available at www.brownpapertickets or at the door.

“This is a special show for me,” said the Emmy award-winning performer. “It is a rare thing for a father and son to

have this sort of musical connection.”

It’s been a delight to see his son grow musically, said Noah, a guitarist.

“He’s leaving me in the dust, frankly, in terms of his understanding of music,” Noah said. “It’s been awesome for me to watch. He’s fearless when it comes to music.”

As a teacher, Noah said he is happy when his students get to the point when their instruments become avenues of personal expression. “So when I saw that happen for my son, it was especially meaningful for me.”

The duo’s program will include tunes by both father and son and an

eclectic mix of music including Americana, Celtic, jazz, folk, pop, gospel, blues and tin-pan alley.

The “Thumb,” as people call Noah’s Snohomish venue, played a key role in Jude’s musical development.

“On more than a few occasions, I’ve had people come to the Thumb looking for ‘the kid with the violin.’ Since his preteens, ‘the kid with the violin’ has been in high demand as an accompanist at our Friday Night Open Mic and he continues to share the Thumbnail Theater stage with amateur and professional musicians from all walks of life.”

Cascade performs for children; Pacifica plays chamber music Herald staff A children’s concert and a matinee of chamberstyle music are offered this weekend by two of Snohomish County’s orchestras.

Cascade Symphony Orchestra’s Children’s Concert begins at 3 p.m. Feb. 21 at the Edmonds Center for the Arts.

Pacifica Chamber Orchestra performs its annual Sunshine Concert at 3 p.m. Feb. 22 at Everett’s First Presbyterian Church.

Cascade’s program includes Poulenc’s “The Story of Babar, the Little Elephant,” narrated by Dave Dolacky.

A highlight will be the third movement of Paganini’s Violin Concerto No. 2, “La Campanella,” performed by 11-year-old violinist Yesong Sophie Lee.

A frequent winner of local competitions, Sophie was invited to participate in the 2014 Yehudi Menuhin International Violin Competition in Austin, Texas. At the age of 8, she performed as soloist with the Seattle Symphony. Sophie has served as concertmaster of Seattle Youth Symphony’s Symphonette, Debut and Junior orchestras.

The CSO percussion ensemble also will perform

at the concert.

Children are invited to arrive at 2:15 for the orchestra’s “instrument petting zoo.”

Families are encouraged to bring a nonperishable food item for the Edmonds Food Bank.

Pacifica’s concert includes music by Spanish composer Manuel de Falla, Russian composer Mikhail Glinka and French composer Ernest Chausson.

“Falla’s Concerto for Harpsichord, Flute, Oboe, Clarinet, Violin, and Cello is one of my favorite pieces,” said director Fred Chu. “Because of its unique mix of instruments, listeners can really feel the warmth of sunny Spain.”

The harpsichord played

by Elaine Weltz was built by her father Robert A. Yale in 1968 of wood from a Mount Vernon lumber yard.

Also on the program is “Divertimento Brilliante,” which Glinka based on themes from Bellini’s “Opera La Sonnambula.”

Concluding the performance will be Chausson’s Concerto for Violin, Piano, and String Quartet.

“This is one of Chausson’s most loved music because of the color and lyricism,” Chu said.

“To me, it’s a diamond of all chamber music repertoires.”

If you go Cascade Symphony, 3 p.m. Feb. 21, Edmonds Center for the Arts, 410 Fourth Ave. N. Tickets are $2 for children, $5 for students with ID and $10 for adults. Call 425-275-9595.

Pacifica Chamber, 3 p.m.

Brandi Carlile plays unplugged show at the Moore

The Cold War Kids will perform at 8 p.m. Feb. 20 at the Showbox.

By Andy Rathbun Herald Writer

Better turn off those cell phone ringers for this show.

Brandi Carlile — the local favorite who has turned into a national star — promises fans that they will be able to hear a pin drop at her upcoming show, which will feature an all-acoustic set with no amplification.

The show, which starts at 8 p.m. Feb. 20 at the Moore Theatre, will double as a benefit for Seattle’s KEXP radio.

Carlile got her start playing at any venue that would take in her Seattle.

The singer, who was born in Ravensdale, eventually won a record deal and then a national following.

Each of her studio albums has charted higher on the Billboard 200 than the last, with her most recent disc, “Bear Creek,” hitting No. 10.

Now she’s gearing up to release her latest, “The Firewatcher’s Daughter.” She will appear on “Conan” on March 3, the date the album sees release.

Fans might get to hear some of those songs at her upcoming date — just remember to keep the noise down.

Tickets are $32.50 to $72.50 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849.

The Cold War Kids also play at 8 p.m. Feb. 20, as the indie rock band rolls into the Showbox.

The prolific group has released three albums in the past four years — “Mine Is Yours,” “Dear Miss Lonelyhearts” and this past October’s “Hold My Home.”

The California-based act got its start in 2004 as a buzzed-about (and blogged-about) band.

While the blogs have since gone slightly lukewarm on the act, the buzz has continued thanks to its increasingly steady release of new material.

The band’s polished take on indie rock has been showcased on songs like “Audience,” “Miracle Mile” and the new single “All This Could Be Yours.”

Tickets are $25 at showboxonline.com or

Bebel Gilberto — the New York-born worldjazz artist — is playing the Neptune Theatre at 8 p.m.

Feb. 20.

Gilberto was born into one of Brazil’s music families and learned how to sing at a young age, recording at age 7 on an album by her mother, Miucha.

Since then, she’s dabbled in bossa nova, samba and Brazilian pop. On her own albums, she’s welded together electronica and jazz. She’s touring now behind the album “Tudo,” a hit on the jazz charts.

Tickets are $35 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849.

Meanwhile, Leighton Meester will continue splitting her duties between acting and singing as she plays a concert at the Showbox at 8 p.m. Feb. 26.

Meester started out as the star of “Gossip Girl,” but soon signed with Universal Records. Since then, she’s been a hard singer to pin down.

She was featured on a

pop-rock track by Cobra Starship, “Good Girls Go Bad.” Then she worked on dance-friendly material with Robin Thicke and, after appearing in the movie “Country Strong,” some country music.

In October she finally released her debut album, “Heartstrings,” which

found her splitting the difference between alt-pop and adult contemporary music.

Tickets are $20 at showboxonline.com or 888-929-7849.

Finally, electronica favorite Borgore will headline the Showbox SoDo at

8 p.m. Feb. 21.

The dubstep producer, who hails from Tel Aviv, Israel, has sparked interest with his outro-style and cartoonishly crude lyrics that reference the usual excesses — sex, drugs, etc.

Tickets are $27 to $32 at showboxonline.com or 888-929-7849.
