OSO MUDSLIDE

Medal of Valor presented

Fee to park at popular location A lack of parking spaces at Lighthouse Park led the Mukilteo City Council to institute a charge for visitors who are not city residents.

OLYMPIA — There were tears, smiles and — thanks to a logger named Quinn Nations — a touch of politics Wednesday as Darrington, Oso, Arlington and the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe received the

state Medal of Valor for selfless and heroic actions in response to the deadly Oso mudslide.

Washington Supreme Court Chief Justice Barbara Madsen presented the awards to representatives of the communities during a joint session of the House and Senate.

The awards were accepted by Fire Chief Willy Harper on behalf of the town of Oso, Nations on behalf of the town of Darrington, high school student Brantly Stupey for the city of Arlington and volunteer firefighter Kevin Lenon for the Sauk-Suiattle Indian Tribe.

Nations was among the loggers

who went into the mud to rescue victims in the initial hours after the March 22, 2014, slide near Oso, despite danger and warnings by law enforcement officers.

In accepting the award, he hinted at their defiant mood See MEDAL, Page A6

OSO — Natasha Huestis dreamed of the day she could hike with her daughter into the mountains.

Their exploration would be her gift, her lesson, her celebration of their bond.

It is why she called her baby Sanoah, a name she was told means “Mist in the Mountains” in Hawaiian.

The mountains would be their special place.

“That is something I wanted to give Sanoah for her whole life, to show that you could have beautiful things without

In early August, Huestis reached Disappointment Cleaver, 12,300 feet up Mount Rainier. She scattered some of Sanoah’s ashes.

Huestis lost her daughter and her mother, Christina Jefferds, in the Oso mudslide a year ago Sunday. They were among the 43 people killed.

After the slide, Huestis helped search the rubble and plan for the memorial. She gave a beautiful eulogy for her mom and daughter in front of 850 people.

Gov. Jay Inslee gestures to the standing-room-only gallery cheering Quinn Nations on Wednesday as Nations accepts a Medal of Valor on behalf of the town of Darrington during a joint session of the Legislature in Olympia.

MUKILTEO — Waterfront picnics, volleyball games and strolls along the beach at Lighthouse Park soon will come with a parking fee for nonresidents.

The City Council this week approved a proposal to install parking machines in the waterfront district — including Lighthouse Park, Front Street, Park Avenue and First Street — an area which draws an estimated 750,000 visitors a year.

Twenty permit-dispensing machines are expected to be ready for use June 1, Mayor Jennifer Gregerson said.

After the program launches, Lighthouse Park will have paid parking between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m. from Oct. 1 to April 30 and between 4 a.m. and 10 p.m. from May 1 to Sept. 30. Parking will cost $2 per hour from May 1 to Sept. 30 and $1 per hour from Oct. 1 to April 30.

Mukilteo residents can get a free parking pass, good for one year.

“Really, I think it’s good for everybody,” City Council President Bob Champion said. “I believe people understand that to enjoy something like that, you do have to pay a small fee. I think our fees will be reasonable.”

The City Council gave tentative approval to the proposed parking program in November and final approval Monday. City officials say the program will limit parking to four hours and should help control what can be conga lines of cars waiting for spots at popular Lighthouse Park.

It’s a big change for a waterfront area where parking has been free for decades. The city plans to post signs announcing the switch to paid parking, Gregerson said.

“We’ll do some outreach to make sure people are informed and ready for the transition,” she said.

The decision to install parking machines follows years of

The Pitcairn Island Reserve This month the United Kingdom intends to declare the world’s largest fully protected marine reserve in the remote waters surrounding the Pitcairn Islands in the South Pacific Ocean.

The reserve starts 12 nautical miles from Pitcairn Island and extends to the full 200-nautical-mile limit of these waters.

The British overseas territory is composed of four islands: Pitcairn, Henderson, Oeno, and Ducie. Only Pitcairn is inhabited. Most of its population of about 50 residents are descendants of the mutineers who took control of the British Royal Navy’s HMS Bounty in the late 18th century.

that thrives at 1,200 feet below sea level, as well as a coral atoll known as the 40 Mile Reef, considered by scientists to be one of the most developed and deepest reefs of its kind anywhere.

Under a unique arrangement, remote monitoring of the site will be supplied by the Pew Charitable

Trusts, through its Project Eyes on the Seas program, which uses satellite tracking data to detect illegal fishing. Matt Rand, director of Pew’s Global Ocean Legacy, said the creation of the preserve builds a “refuge of untouched ocean to protect and conserve a wealth of marine life.”

This is a pilot program.

It also gives the city a source of revenue to pay for improvements at the park and on the waterfront, Gregerson said.

The council plans to review the program in November, Champion said.

“This is a pilot program.

The program is expected

to initially cost the city $175,090 to purchase and install the parking permit machines. Two park rangers also will be hired to help with enforcing parking and

other park rules. The combined estimated salary and benefits for the two rangers is $94,432.

The program is expected to net the city a minimum of $42,099 in the first year and between $215,528 and $441,056 per year by the fifth year, according to city documents.

Parking concerns over the lack of parking in the waterfront area. Some residents complained that the parking problems were so bad they couldn’t get to the park, which their taxes help support. The situation has been so acute that the city has paid to have someone stand at the park entrance on busy summer days to cut off access when there was no parking left.

The goal is to ensure that everybody who wants to enjoy the waterfront area and Lighthouse Park is “able to get down there easily and spend time,” Gregerson said. “Encouraging people to come and go and open up (parking) space for visits is important.”

LOTTERY

When the mutineers of the HMS Bounty landed on Pitcairn Island in 1790, they believed they had found the perfect refuge: a fertile Eden in a remote corner of the South Pacific where Capt. William Bligh and the rest of the British navy could never find them.

Some 225 years later, the island and its waters might soon become a sanctuary of a different kind. The British government said Wednesday that it intends to designate a vast area around the island as the world’s largest protected marine reserve, assuring that its natural riches will remain pristine for generations to come.

The plan to designate the region as a Marine Protected Area is spelled out in budget documents released by British officials, and is contingent on finalizing agreements for satellite monitoring and enforcement in the proposed ocean park. But barring a technical hitch, restrictions will be soon be imposed on a 322,000-squaremile area around Pitcairn and three sister islands that contains an unusual wealth of corals reefs as well as marine species ranging from sea mammals to sharks, according to scientists involved in planning for the preserve.

“It was like traveling to a new world full of hidden and unknown treasures,” said Enric Sala, a marine biologist and explorer-inresidence for National Geographic who participated in a 2012 scientific expedition to the islands. With the creation of the sanctuary, he said, the area’s biological bounty “will now be preserved for generations to come.”

As a marine park, the area would be off limits to commercial fishing as well as undersea mining or oil and gas exploration. Covering an

area three times the size of Great Britain, it would be the biggest continuous area of protected ocean in the world, and the second-biggest nature reserve of any kind after East Greenland National Park.

The 2-mile-long main island is best known as the final resting place of the HMS Bounty, the 18th century British ship that was seized by rebellious crew members in 1789 in an episode celebrated in books and films as the “Mutiny on the Bounty.” The mutineers, led by Fletcher Christian, set the boat’s captain and 18 other seamen adrift in a small boat and then sailed off on a months-long search for a hiding place safe from passing British naval patrols.

Eventually, nine of the mutineers ended up on tiny Pitcairn Island with an entourage of 17 Tahitian men and women and an infant.

Christian burned the ship and built a settlement on the island, which remained undetected for 18 years. All but one of the original mutineers had died by the time the settlement was discovered by a passing American vessel in 1808.

The remoteness that attracted the Bounty’s mutineers makes the region ideally suited for a sanctuary, scientists say. Located in the middle of the South Pacific about 3,000 miles northeast of New Zealand, Pitcairn’s waters are virtually unspoiled. The main island’s current population of 56 people — all descendants of the mutineers and their Tahitian companions — are the only inhabitants, and large portions of the seabed have never been explored.

Scientific expeditions so far have documented more than 1,200 species, including four types of endangered whales and two endangered sea turtles. The region’s ecosystem also includes the world’s deepest known plant species, a kind of encrusting coral

People who practice witchcraft have been called many things over the years — add “principled” to the list.

A writer for The Daily Dot recently felt backlash from the online witching community after hiring a witch on the Web to cast a spell in aid of their marriage. According to a story on the news website, the writer was taken to task by one commenter, claiming to be a witch herself.

“That was probably the dumbest thing you could have ever done,” the anonymous person wrote. “Speaking as a witch, I would never cast a spell for anyone for payment. That’s ethically wrong.”

The witch-for-hire business has had an online presence since at least 2012, when the service was banned by the popular auction website eBay. However, some practitioners of witchcraft still offer their services.

3 Bothell teens suspected in vandalism The high school boys are believed to have spray-painted graffiti on a Hindu temple and Skyview Junior High School, police say.

By Rikki King Herald Writer

BOTHELL — Police say they’ve identified three suspects in an apparent case of malicious harassment involving graffiti at a Hindu temple and Skyview Junior High School in Bothell

last month.

The suspects are three boys who attend Bothell High School, according to a news release issued Wednesday. One of the boys is 16, and the other two are 17.

The teens have not been arrested, said Shari Ireton,

spokeswoman for the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office, which worked the case alongside Bothell police.

Two of the teens declined to speak with detectives. A third reportedly admitted to being involved.

Officials at the Northshore School District, which includes Skyview and Bothell High School, are awaiting the results of the ongoing investigation, spokeswoman Leanna Albrecht

said Wednesday.

“Appropriate disciplinary action will be administered following any police or legal investigation,” she said.

A swastika was spray-painted with the words, “get out,” on the Hindu Temple and Cultural Center in Bothell.

Skyview was tagged with two red swastikas and the words, “Muslims get out,” and, “Muslims be gone.” Both incidents were reported Feb. 15.

Under state law, malicious harassment is a felony. It involves cases where victims were targeted based on race, religion, gender, sexual orientation or other factors.

The Bothell police officer assigned to Bothell High School developed the leads based on interviews with students, according to the release.

They’re coming back for more Impressed with Everett’s performance in 2012, USA Gymnastics is bringing the Pacific Rim Championships back to town.

By Kari Bray Herald Writer

EVERETT — City officials are hoping an international gymnastics tournament will draw at least 20,000 visitors — and several million dollars — to downtown businesses next year.

The Pacific Rim Gymnastics Championships, a three-day competition, is scheduled to start April 8, 2016, at the Xfinity Arena.

Everett has hosted the championships once before, in 2012.

“Anecdotally, we know it was a huge success with hoteliers,” said Lanie McMullin, the city’s

economic development director.

“We filled hotel rooms. We filled restaurants.”

The city did not do any formal studies on the economic impact of the event, so no specific financial information is available, McMullin said. However, Xfinity Arena general manager Rick Comeau estimated that the 2012 championships brought $2.5 million to Everett.

The Xfinity Arena’s marketing department came up with the number, Comeau said. Their calculations tend to look at the attendance at an event, the hotel rooms that would be needed and length of the stay, and a rough estimate of food budgets for people staying in the area.

More than 300 athletes plan to compete in 2016, according to USA Gymnastics. That’s See GYMNASTICS, Page A4

EVERETT — Teri Cantor is reminded of Johnothan Bagley’s drug addiction and selfish actions every time she stands too long or faces a flight of stairs.

The scars on her legs won’t let her forget. Her new life makes it impossible to forget.

Cantor can longer be a medical assistant, a job she loved.

She can’t stand longer than two or three hours without her heels burning in pain. They were shattered when Bagley slammed head on into her car in the Lowell neighborhood.

Cantor is nervous driving or riding in a car. She can’t watch “The Fast and the Furious” movies anymore. The crash scenes leave her breathless, panicky.

Her life is changed. Bagley, 29, did that to her.

Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Bruce Weiss on Wednesday sentenced Bagley to five years in prison for the 2012 crash. The judge made sure that Bagley will serve that sentence on top of the 7½ years he’s already serving for dealing drugs and trying to outrun police in another case.

“I hope those scars on her body are embedded in you,” Weiss told Bagley.

The judge made Bagley recite back how his actions changed Cantor’s life. Weiss handed the Everett man a copy of Cantor’s letter that detailed her injuries and how she has struggled since the crash. He told the convicted felon to hang onto the letter.

Maybe it will be what he needs to beat his drug addiction once and for all.

the law would do great things for the county and state and he cited no concern with it.

Last week, though, Lovick told the House members it’s turned out to be a bad deal. This time he voiced the concern of workers frustrated and angry that Boeing has shipped hundreds of jobs not tied to the 777X out of

state since securing the taxbreak extension.

“I do not favor providing tax breaks and incentives to create jobs in other states,” he said, adding that the bill to revise the deal “provides the checks and balances we need to make sure our tax dollars and the promised jobs stay in Washington.”

It isn’t clear what changed Lovick’s mind and why he felt moved to

testify. He eluded reporters after the hearing and had not returned phone calls as of Wednesday morning.

It’s a testament to his likability that this change of heart hasn’t stirred much reaction from the public.

Yet with Lovick gearing up for a re-election campaign, there’s bound to be political fallout.

He might lose the endorsements of some prominent community leaders, including Democrats. Though Lovick has no opponent now, recent events might inspire

someone to step forward — a development that Boeing and other aerospace firms operating in the county might be particularly interested to see.

Lovick’s support of the “clawback” bill isn’t the first evidence of his conflicted soul on aerospace matters.

On at least two occasions in late 2013, he publicly urged Machinists to approve a new concessionladen contract that Boeing insisted be ratified to seal the 777X deal. That really angered some leaders and

many members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.

Lovick reportedly apologized to union leaders for what he’d done.

While this latest episode might help heal the rift between him and Machinists, there’s no guarantee he’ll secure the union’s endorsement in the campaign. It might, however, shore up Lovick’s credentials with non-aerospace labor groups put off by his action in 2013.

comparable to the 2012 turn-out. Three-day attendance in 2012 totaled 20,343 people — nearly triple the crowd at the 2008 tournament in California.

The success of the Everett event is what brought the competition back, said Steve Penny, president of USA Gymnastics. Coordinators are hoping for at least 20,000 people again.

For Xfinity Arena, the Pacific Rim Championships likely will be the biggest event of 2016, McMullin said. Comeau compared it to a Silvertips playoff run or a One Republic concert in terms of the number of seats filled. However, the international draw of the gymnastic competition is unique for the arena, he said.

Tickets go on sale later this year. Athletes and spectators will be seeking hotels, meals, supplies and souvenirs, she said.

Two hotels that didn’t exist in 2012 are on track to be open in April 2016, blocks away from the arena. A six-story Hampton Inn opened at 2931 W. Marine Dr. in 2014, the first new downtown hotel in 17 years.

An eight-story Courtyard by Marriott also should be finished by next

April, McMullin said. It’s under construction at the corner of Colby Avenue and Wall Street.

The new lodgings mean a 68 percent increase in downtown Everett hotel rooms, according to numbers provided by Experience Everett, the city’s tourism arm. Three years ago, there were 410 rooms. By 2016, that number is expected reach 688.

The gymnastics competition falls several weeks shy of the hotels’ peak season, Experience Everett director Sean Straub said. The event puts people in rooms that normally wouldn’t be booked that time of year.

“They obviously house their athletes, and you’ll have families and spectators and coaches and a lot of other people who travel with the teams,” he said.

“It can be a real bump for travel and tourism.”

He expects more people than downtown hotels can handle, which means Tulalip, south Everett and Marysville are likely to benefit. Penny specifically listed the Tulalip Resort Casino as one of the draws from the area in 2012.

Along with a direct boost to hotels, restaurants and shops, Everett gains international publicity from the competition, McMullin said.

Bagley may never overcome his drug addiction, the judge said. He better learn that he should never drive if he is high or drunk, Weiss said.

Bagley was out of jail six days when he plowed into Cantor’s car.

Oregon House votes to outlaw hunting with drones

SALEM, Ore. — Lawmakers in the state House voted unanimously Wednesday to outlaw the use of drones for hunting or fishing in Oregon.

The Humane Society of the United States says Oregon would join Colorado, Montana and Alaska in prohibiting drones for hunting.

Similar prohibitions have also been proposed in Vermont, New Hampshire,

Drones would give hunters an unfair advantage over the animals they target, said Scott Beckstead, the Humane Society’s Oregon director. The bill’s supporters say wildlife populations might dwindle

Remember Oso victims, donate to relief efforts EVENTS Friday The Gathering of Hope service of remembrance is set for 7 p.m. at the Darrington Community Center gymnasium, 570 Sauk Ave. The multi-denominational gathering will include prayers, readings and messages of hope from pastors throughout the Stillaguamish Valley, with refreshments and fellowship to follow.

Saturday The Darrington Library will dedicate its community room in honor of Linda McPherson at 11 a.m. McPherson, the retired library manager and a longtime Darrington School Board member, was killed in the mudslide.

A benefit concert and live auction for the Oso Fire Department is set for 1 p.m. at Rhodes River Ranch at 22016 Entsminger Road, east

of Arlington. The auction starts at 4:30 p.m.

Sunday Highway 530 will be closed between Oso and Darrington from 9 a.m. to noon Sunday for the one-year remembrance event in the slide zone.

The event is not open to the general public. The detour route is Highway 20 through Skagit County.

A community potluck is planned for 1 p.m. at the Darrington Community

Center, 570 Sauk Ave. Food needs to arrive by noon.

The Oso Fire Department plans an open house from 1 to 4 p.m. at its fire hall, 21824 Highway 530.

with a quote from longtime resident Steve Skaglund.

“Look what the American people can do if you just untie their hands,” Nations said, inciting a roar from Republicans, Democrats and his family, friends and neighbors in the gallery. “Chew on that one for a little bit.”

Afterward, Nations elaborated only slightly on what seemed to be a reference to frustration some residents felt at being barred from helping in the first hours and days after the mudslide.

“What better statement could be made to express the feelings?” he said.

“Small people are capable of great things if they get mad enough.”

Wednesday’s ceremony lasted less than an hour and featured brief comments from each of the four.

victim — Sanoah was 4 months old — became a face for the largest catastrophe in Snohomish County history.

Grief, she has learned since, cannot be fasttracked or ignored. There have been days she couldn’t get out of bed.

Counseling helps. So does keeping a distance from many people. She’s not returning to Oso for Sunday’s remembrance.

Even when she smiles, there is sadness in her eyes.

“At this point in my life, I am in over my head and I’m swimming in a pool of emotions every day, and it makes it hard to just get by,” she said. “There is a lot of sadness.”

There also is hope, she said.

So much change On a campus of nearly

assist the operation. He also invited Gov. Jay Inslee to the school to speak, and the governor did visit.

“It is through this great tragedy, like all great tragedies, that challenge the human spirit,” Brantly said in his remarks. “Such a thing brings out the best in all of us. For this reason, and through the strength, resiliency and love of our community, we have remained undaunted. The battle for healing is ongoing, but through continued unity, in time all will heal.”

As he spoke, Post Middle School Principal Voni Walker watched from the

45,000 students, Huestis can blend in without much notice.

In her purple and gold top, she looks like any University of Washington student.

By design, she hasn’t made any friends among her peers.

She lives alone in a Seattle apartment and that suits her fine. If she is awake at 3 a.m., as sometimes happens, she can sort through her thoughts — her sadness, her anger, her fear of abandonment — without distraction.

Last year at this time, she wouldn’t have imagined herself where she is now: a 27-year-old freshman intent on studying neuroscience.

Then, she was a new mom. She and Sanoah lived along Steelhead Drive near Oso with her mom and stepfather, Seth Jefferds. Huestis savored her daughter’s innocence and her warmth and the outstretched hands of Sanoah’s grandparents, eager to hold the child.

After the slide, Gov. Jay Inslee asked Huestis how he could help her.

She told him she wanted to go back to school.

Sanoah’s death made her think of the marvelous machine that is the human brain. If she could plow through the rigorous neuroscience coursework, perhaps she could help other children someday.

She already had some

gallery as Brantly held the attention of lawmakers and guests.

“I think more than anything I felt pride in our youth,” she said. “They really represent Arlington and they are our future.”

Harper, one of the first emergency responders at the scene, told lawmakers that a long recovery is still ahead “but we wouldn’t be where we are at today without all the community members who stepped up.”

Lenon, vice chairman of the Sauk-Suiattle tribal council, is a volunteer firefighter with the Darrington Fire Department. He was

on the scene the first day and, much like Nations, spent hours in the mud alongside others, searching for survivors in spite of threats to their safety.

“We dedicate this honor you have bestowed on us to the lives lost, to those who worked diligently to save lives and to those who recovered the ones who suffered death,” Lenon said. The tribe is committed, he said, to building a “healthy, human spirit” in the Stillaguamish Valley.

The Medal of Valor is one of the highest civilian honors awarded by the state. Since its establishment in 2000, it has only been given to eight people, the last in 2007.

Wednesday marked the first time it went to communities and a tribe. It took a new law to do so. Until this year only individuals could receive the award.

Sen. Kirk Pearson, R-Monroe, and Reps. Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish, and Elizabeth Scott, R-Monroe, nominated the communities and shepherded the bill to passage.

“It’s emotional,” Pearson said. “You can’t help but think about last year. It’s

community college credits.

The governor put in a good word.

Huestis cried for a solid five minutes when she was accepted at the UW. She wore new shoes and a new backpack on her first day of classes last fall.

“I wanted to be one of

the cool kids,” she said.

“Really, I feel like the old kid.”

It is always there, but it

great to bring the communities together and show how strong and resilient they are.”

Kristiansen said the ceremony was an opportunity to remember residents’ “amazing acts of valor ... and amazing acts of love.”

While it was a joyful moment, he said of the event, “it was a very difficult moment.”

Also Wednesday, the governor presented the Medal of Merit to Gretchen Schodde and posthumously to Billy Frank Jr. Frank, who died in May, was honored for his work as a Nisqually tribal leader and for his dedication to the plight of Northwest salmon, the environment and peace among diverse cultures.

Frank’s sons, Willie and Tobin Frank, accepted the medal on his behalf.

Schodde, a resident of Union in Mason County, received the award for her work as founder of Harmony Hill Retreat Center.

The center in Union offers a range of support for individuals and families affected by a cancer diagnosis.

doesn’t always feel real.

She stayed busy and accessible.

Grief waited patiently for her.

“I think the big part of it is giving yourself the time and emotions to feel what you need to feel,” she said.

“I totally lost my identity in all of this.”

She has maintained a few relationships, but has withdrawn from others. She turned off her Facebook account. Wellmeaning chatter — Have a great new year! or You’re awesome! — just seemed to ring hollow.

Holidays and milestones have passed.

Sanoah’s first birthday was in December. She’d be walking by now.

In January, Huestis felt her world crashing down.

She hadn’t realized her despair could reach so deep.

Counselors guide her.

They reassure that it is OK to experience the emotions she feels. She works hard to avoid negative thoughts.

College has helped. It gives her purpose and hope for a future.

She finished her second quarter classes this week.

Biology, chemistry and genetics await her after the break.

She’ll do her best.

“If I have to start over, I may as well start over in a positive manner,” she said.

Republicans push conservative budgets

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Making good on last fall’s campaign commitments, Republicans advanced conservative budgets in both houses of Congress on Wednesday, setting up a veto struggle over the fate of the health care law and promising a whopping $5 trillion in spending cuts to erase deficits by the end of the coming decade.

The possibility of billions more for the Pentagon and an overhaul of the tax code also emerged as Republican priorities, although there were significant differences between the day-old proposal in the House and the one unveiled during the day by Senate Republicans.

Defense spending aside, Medicare was chief among them. Senate Republicans, already eying the 2016 elections, balked at a politically sensitive House plan to turn health care coverage for seniors into a voucherlike program for those who enroll beginning in 2024.

Republicans claimed a balanced-budget, no-taxincrease approach as the House Budget Committee neared an evening vote on its proposal. The Senate panel set its vote for Thursday.

By contrast, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said President Barack Obama’s budget from earlier in the year raised “taxes by nearly $2 trillion, and increased the national debt by more than $7 trillion. In other words, it was more of the same old tired, failed policies of the past.”

He said the Republicans promise a plan “that will support economic growth and more opportunity for hardworking families, while protecting our most vulnerable citizens.”

Obama leaned in.

Claiming credit for the improving economy, he said Republicans offer “a path to prosperity for those who have already prospered.” Reprising a criticism he leveled in his winning 2012 campaign against Mitt Romney, he said in Cleveland that the GOP budget “doubles down on trickle-down.”

It will be weeks or months — if then — before Republicans can turn their nonbinding blueprints into legislation and send it to the White House for Obama’s signature or veto.

Before that, they will concentrate on pushing the rival budgets through the two houses. Next, they will try to agree on a compromise that they concede will stand as a test of their ability to govern.

By David Espo and Andrew Taylor

they would try to balance the budget if they won power. They also said over and over they would work to eradicate the health care law that Obama has pledged to defend and the administration now says has provided coverage to more than 16 million individuals who previously lacked it.

Details contained inside the budgets make a veto struggle with Obama over the health care law a virtual certainty, although the Supreme Court could largely render that moot in a ruling is expected this spring on the constitutionality of a key portion of it.

Senate Republicans said they intend to use legislation that Democrats cannot block to accomplish their goal of repeal.

Both budgets envision a significant campaign to cut spending, with much of the projected savings coming from Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps and welfare.

Defense spending remained a work in progress. The House proposal recommended hiking existing funding by about $36 billion next year above Obama’s proposal, through an increase in an overseas account that has financed the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Under pressure from defense hawks, the leadership agreed to provide an additional $2 billion.

As drafted, the Senate budget recommended the same total as Obama, although a move was under way to raise it to roughly the same level as the House.

Both Republicans and the White House have indicated they would like to ease the cuts in the next couple of years and replace them with longer-term cuts and, perhaps, new revenues, much as was the case in 2013.

To achieve their core campaign commitment, Republicans in both houses resorted to a series of sleights of hand.

Both budgets assume that dozens of popular tax breaks will be allowed to expire. One allows businesses to offset the cost of research and development, and another allows individuals and families to deduct the cost of sales tax in states with no income tax. Together, the cost of renewing all of them totals $900 billion, money not in either budget.

Both budgets also estimate large savings from the economic benefit of implementation of their spending proposals — $164 billion over a decade in the Senate, $147 billion for the House.

Without these amounts, the Senate budget would be unable to show even its minuscule $3 billion surplus for 2025, or the House its $46 billion in black ink in 2024 and 2025 combined.

In addition, the Senate budget offers no explanation for a sudden $191 billion jump in savings from benefit programs in 2025.

‘Goldilocks planets’ abound Research finds that most stars could have planets in the habitable zone.

The Washington Post For a planet to have liquid water — something necessary to support life as we know it — it has to be within a certain distance of its star. Too close, and the water burns up. Too far away, and it’s a frozen wasteland. But according to new research, most stars in the galaxy have so-called “Goldilocks planets,” which sit in the habitable zone, where temperatures are just right for life.

New calculations in a study published Wednesday in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society indicate that billions of the Milky Way’s stars have one to three planets in the habitable zone, meaning that they potentially have liquid water as well.

The calculations, which were produced by a group of

THE WASHINGTON POST

An illustration of an exoplanet like the ones Kepler detects by monitoring dips in a star’s brightness, caused by orbiting planets.

researchers from the Australian National University and the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen, are based on a method called the Titius-Bode law.

This law, which was created around 1770, predicts how planets in a solar system will be spaced out. The researchers applied the law to the 1,000 exoplanets (and 3,000 possible exoplanets) found

by NASA’s Kepler satellite.

They looked at 151 planetary

systems — ones where Kepler had detected between three and six planets — and found that the Titius-Bode law fit well with the way 124 of them were spaced out.

“Using T-B’s law, we tried to predict where there could be more planets further out in the planetary systems. But we only made calculations for planets where there is a good chance that you can see them with the Kepler satellite,” said Steffen Kjær Jacobsen, PhD student in

the research group Astrophysics and Planetary Science at the Niels Bohr Institute at the University of Copenhagen. In the planetary systems where ratios were off, they were able to estimate where “missing” planets might be.

Once those planets were added, all 151 systems showed one to three planets in their habitable zone. The researchers believe this indicates that most systems do have planets orbiting at the proper distance to hold liquid water.

To help confirm their theory, they’ve flagged a number of supposed Goldilocks planets that Kepler should be able to see at some point. They hope that other scientists will spot them, adding weight to the “missing planets” they’ve calculated.

Unfortunately, being in the habitable zone doesn’t mean that liquid water is present — and the presence of liquid water doesn’t necessarily mean that life ever can, will, or did exist. But here’s to hoping.

Troops rout Boko Haram Nigeria has stepped up its campaign against the Islamic militants.

Associated Press DAMASAK, Nigeria — Waving a captured black and white militant flag, soldiers from Niger and Chad on Wednesday celebrated their liberation of a Nigerian town from Boko Haram extremists.

It is another victory in a regional campaign to wrest back swaths of northeast Nigeria from the Islamist militants.

Damasak, just a few miles over the border from Niger, was liberated over the weekend, Col. Michel Ledru, a spokesman for Niger’s army, said Wednesday.

In heavy fighting, 228 militants were killed and one soldier from Niger died, Ledru said. Vehicles and motor cycles riddled with bullets littered the streets.

A photographer in the northeastern town said it was largely deserted of civilians Wednesday.

Four people, including an old man, came onto the street to wave at a convoy among 2,000 troops from Niger and Chad in the town.

There were still signs of the town’s occupation by the militants. Their writings were scrawled on every wall and the extremists’ black and white flag still flew above some buildings.

As two Chadian helicopters landed with supplies, soldiers on the ground started chanting and displaying their catch: A Boko Haram flag torn down from a nearby building.

On the outskirts of town, hundreds of troops have set up camp. Some soldiers hid from the 113-degree Fahrenheit heat in the shade of their

MONTGOMERY, Ala. — The American Civil Liberties Union on Wednesday asked a federal judge to block an Alabama law that allows a fetus to be represented in court when a minor is seeking judicial permission for an abortion.

While abortion opponents have rolled out a variety of new restrictions on abortion in recent years — including new requirements on clinics and doctors — ACLU staff attorney Andrew Beck said the Alabama law was unique. “This

This winter cracks a global heat record WASHINGTON — Federal records show that this winter and the first two months of 2015 were the hottest on record globally, with a chilly U.S. East sticking out like a cold thumb in a toasty world. At nearly 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit above 20th century average, last month was the second warmest February on record globally, slightly behind 1998.

But the combined January and February temperature beat the old record for the first two months set in 2002.

December through February broke the winter record set in 2007. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration records go back to 1880.

Minnesota: Target wages Target Corp. is raising the minimum wage for its hourly workers next month to at least $9 an hour, after a similar decision by rival Wal-Mart last month. The Minneapolis-based retailer declined to disclose what it is currently paying employees, citing a long-standing policy. “We make sure we’re competitive in every marketplace in which we do business,” a Target spokeswoman said. “As part of that, we regularly and continually evaluate the marketplace to make sure our wages are competitive.”

New York: Commute time New Yorkers spend an average of six hours and 18 minutes each week getting to and from work, the longest commute among the 30 largest U.S. cities, according to a study by the city comptroller.

The study released Wednesday found that lower-wage workers have the longest commutes, suggesting a need for more mass-transit funding and company policies that balance work and family, the comptroller said. New Yorkers earn about 16 percent more than the average full-time worker in the next 29 largest cities, according to the report. Yet on an hourly basis, that wage premium falls to 11 percent when commuting time is added.

tanks. Some used their helmets to grind grain for a meal.

A few did laundry while others cooked food.

It was all work for a group of Chadian troops who transferred weapons captured from

Boko Haram to a pickup truck that drove it to the helicopters for transport back to Niger: AK47 assault rifles and 50-caliber guns, rocket-propelled grenades and mortar shells.

“Boko Haram is far now, very

far,” said one soldier.

The insurgents had seized Damasak with little resistance on Nov. 24, when residents reported that the militants drove in flinging firebombs and improvised explosive devices.

Thousands of residents who fled across the border into Niger said dozens of people were killed and an unknown number of girls kidnapped.

Boko Haram has been fighting a six-year insurgency to create an Islamic state and had taken control of large parts of Nigeria’s northeast in the past year. It became notorious internationally after kidnapping more than 200 schoolgirls last April.

But in recent months, Nigeria has stepped up its campaign against the militants, and, with the help of a regional force that includes Niger and Chad, has retaken dozens of towns.

ACLU targets fetus’ representation Associated Press

ACROSS THE U.S.

particular law is one of a kind,” Beck said.

Alabama minors must have permission from their parents or a judge to have an abortion.

Alabama legislators in 2014 changed the judicial permission process to allow a judge to appoint a guardian ad litem “for the interests of the unborn child.” The law requires that district attorneys are notified of the hearing and can question the minor and call witnesses.

U.S. Magistrate Judge Susan Russ Walker heard arguments on the ACLU request for an injunction blocking the law

and a state request to dismiss the lawsuit. State lawyers said the law provides options to the judge to obtain information about the minor’s maturity level, while the ACLU argued the law forced teens to go through a “trial” to obtain an abortion.

“It puts teens on trial to get a constitutionally protected procedure. It’s adversarial.

She loses her anonymity because the district attorney or guardian ad litem can call in witnesses and interrogate the child,” said Susan Watson, executive director of the American Civil Liberties

Union of Alabama.

The ACLU filed the lawsuit in federal court in Montgomery on behalf of Reproductive Health Services, a Montgomery abortion clinic.

Lawyers for the Alabama attorney general’s office disputed the ACLU portrayal of the law.

Assistant Attorney General William Parker said the decision for judicial permission for abortion still rests on only two factors: whether the teen is mature enough to make the decision and whether an abortion is in her best interest.

Health officials said two more American aid workers arrived in the U.S. on Wednesday to be monitored for Ebola. The two bring to 17 the number of Americans flown back from West Africa’s Sierra Leone since Friday for monitoring. None have tested positive.

All are connected to an unidentified American who returned to the U.S. last week after he came down with Ebola.

He is in critical condition at a government hospital in Bethesda, Maryland.

Illinois: Diversity training A fraternity that disbanded its University of Oklahoma chapter after members were caught on video engaging in a racist chant is taking steps to become more inclusive, including requiring all its members to go through diversity training, a fraternity executive said Wednesday. The executive director of Sigma Alpha Epsilon said in Chicago that he was disgusted and embarrassed by the video that surfaced last week.

He apologized for the pain it caused and outlined steps the Evanston-based administration was taking to “ensure that this never happens again.”

Texas: Guns on campus The state would allow people to carry concealed handguns on college campuses under a measure given preliminary approval by the state Senate, just a day after it passed a proposal allowing open carry of guns almost anywhere in the state. Panned by most student groups and key leaders of Texas’ top colleges the “campus carry” bill was strongly supported by gun rights groups and the Senate’s Republican majority. It sailed through on a 20-11 party line vote. The bill still needs a final vote — likely Thursday — to send it to the GOP-controlled state House.

AROUND THE WORLD Tunisia: Tourists attacked Tourists scrambled in panic Wednesday after militants stormed a museum in Tunis and killed 19 people, “shooting at anything that moved,” a witness said.

Two gunmen were slain by security forces after the deadliest attack on civilians in the North African country in 13 years, and the president said the young democracy was embroiled in a war with terror. The militants, with uniforms and assault rifles, burst from a vehicle and began gunning down tourists climbing from buses at the Bardo Museum.

West Coast imports plunge Persistent delays at western ports have forced businesses to find workarounds.

Los Angeles Times Months of congestion at West Coast ports — the result of a labor dispute and other logistical problems — led to major shifts in U.S. trade patterns.

Import data for the first two months of this year show that the volume of container cargo coming into West Coast ports plummeted nearly 18 percent compared with the same period last year, according to the trade research firm Zepol. At the same time, the amount of cargo coming into East and Gulf coast ports grew by 10 percent.

The numbers put a precise face on what retailers, farmers and manufacturers have known for months: Persistent delays at West

Coast ports have forced businesses to find workarounds for their shipments.

“It’s a financial and a timing issue,” said Paul Rasmussen, chief executive of Zepol, which analyzes trade data. “These companies are doing whatever they can to get their products in.”

Retailers have complained for months about delays at the ports.

There are many causes: A surge in imports, the arrival of massive container ships that overwhelm docks with cargo and shortages of truck trailers needed to haul containers out of the port.

Alongside the infrastructure issues, shipping companies and dockworkers with the International Longshore and Warehouse Union were embroiled in a months-long contract dispute that was resolved last month.

Both sides traded barbs over causes for the delays: Shipping companies accused dockworkers of staging a work slowdown

to gain leverage in contract talks, while the local union in Southern California countered that employers failed to train enough crane operators to safely manage higher workloads.

Shipping companies halted the unloading of ships at night beginning in January, and also dramatically cut shifts during the President’s Day weekend last month. The companies said the cutbacks were meant to prevent overcrowding on already congested docks, while the union argued it was part of a negotiating tactic.

The ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, which together account for some 40 percent of the nation’s incoming container cargo, both saw declines of about 20 percent in January and February compared with a year earlier.

The port of Savannah, Ga., on the other hand, saw a 20 percent jump in cargo volume, while the port of New Orleans saw a 52 percent increase from a year earlier.

The Port of New York and

New Jersey — traditionally the nation’s third-largest port — imported more container cargo than the Port of Long Beach for two months in a row, the first time that has happened in nearly a decade, Rasmussen said. The Port of Los Angeles still ranked No. 1 the last two months, despite the drop in imports.

The dramatic drop in cargo on the West Coast is likely to be temporary, Rasmussen said, but developments such as the widening of the Panama Canal could continue to change the patterns of global trade.

Although container traffic through West Coast ports has surged since the 1980s, surpassing the historically dominant East Coast, Pacific ports have slowly lost market share over the last decade to ports on the Atlantic.

“It’ll be a slow and gradual thing,” Rasmussen said. “But you hop ahead five or 10 years, and it’s going to be a very different flow of goods than what we see today.”

Starbucks will start deliveries The service will roll out in Seattle and at New York’s Empire State Building.

Mobile order-and-pay will launch in Canada this year as well, and be tested in the United Kingdom, according to the company.

2-for-1 stock split

Herald news services NEW YORK — Starbucks said it will start delivering to customers in select parts of Seattle and New York City later this year.

The details will be discussed at the coffee chain’s annual meeting Wednesday.

In Seattle, it said it will team up with a company called Postmates to deliver to homes and offices within specific areas. In New York City, delivery will be from existing or newly setup Starbucks shops in certain buildings, starting with the Empire State Building.

Starbucks Chief Digital Officer Adam Brotman said there will be no minimum purchase required, but that deliveries will require “a small flat fee.” He declined to say what the exact fee will be. Delivery workers will accept tips, too.

Brotman said the average time for deliveries will be 30 minutes, starting from when the order is placed.

For New York City, people will be able use a website to place orders. In Seattle, people would place orders via the company’s mobile app. The hours of operation for delivery are still being determined.

In the meantime, Starbucks Corp. also says it’s on track for a national rollout of mobile orderand-pay, which lets customers place orders through its apps ahead of time so that drinks and

food are ready when they arrive at the store. The program was launched in Portland, Oregon, late last year. Starbucks Chief

Financial Officer Scott Maw said the company expects to see a lift in sales as a result of mobile order-and-pay by late this year.

Starbucks also is planning a 2-for-1 stock split, its first such move in almost a decade, after shares of the coffee-house chain reached a record high last month.

Investors of record on March 30 will receive an additional share for each one they hold, the company said Wednesday. The shares will begin trading on a split-adjusted basis April 9.

“This split is a direct reflection of the past seven years of increasing shareholder value,” Chief Executive Officer Howard Schultz said. “Shareholders are experiencing an all-time high in value as we continue to deliver worldclass customer service and, in turn, record profits and revenue.”

Starbucks’ action is an increasingly rare one in an American stock market that is dominated by institutional investors and exchange-traded funds, which don’t care about the absolute price of a share. Splits reached their apex in the 1990s when companies sought to broaden their appeal to individuals lured by the biggest bull market since the 1920s.

After Starbucks shares declined in 2007 and 2008, hurt by the recession and financial crisis, they have climbed for six straight years.

Budweiser video features blind taste tests St. Louis Post-Dispatch

biz bits

ST. LOUIS — In a follow-up to its “macro beer” Super Bowl ad that sparked controversy earlier this year, Budweiser debuted a new video online this week that highlights the beer brand’s 139-year-old heritage.

In the new video posted on its YouTube channel titled “This Bud’s for Brooklyn,” bar visitors are asked to sample an unlabeled beer that the bartender describes as a “beer drinker’s beer” and

“aged over beechwood,” while hidden cameras rolled. Only after they try it and give positive feedback are the customers told the beer is Budweiser.

The video shot during NYC Restaurant Week is only planned to run online, according to a spokeswoman.

In February, Anheuser-Busch was criticized after its Super Bowl ad “Brewed the Hard Way” mocked craft beer drinkers with messages that included: “Let them sip their pumpkin peach

747-8 gets certification for efficient routes The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration has approved Boeing’s 747-8 to fly more direct long-distance routes.

The certification is called 330-minute Extended Operations, meaning the airplane can fly routes that up to 330 minutes away from the nearest alternate airport. ETOPS has been required of twinengine airplanes since the 1980s, and the regulations were recently extended to planes with more than two engines. The 747-8 is the first four-engine plane to get 330-minute ETOPS. The approval will mean operators can fly more direct, more efficient routes, said Bruce Dickinson, general manager of Boeing’s 747 program.

Franchises to seek injunction on wages An international group that lost its latest court battle to block Seattle’s new minimum wage law said it will keep on fighting. The International Franchise Association said it will continue to seek a permanent injunction to stop portions of the law that apply to small business franchises.

The association and five Seattle franchises filed a lawsuit against Seattle in June 2014 to block part of the city’s new law to increase the minimum wage to $15 an hour. A federal judge Tuesday rejected their claims that the law discriminates against franchises and denied their request to stop the law from going into effect.

Taxi firms files lawsuit against Uber Taxi drivers in California must submit to fingerprinting for criminal background checks. UberX drivers don’t have to. Yet Uber Technologies advertises itself as “the safest rides on the road” and executives tout Uber as “safer than a taxi.” That’s deceptive and has caused “significant harm” to the taxi industry, 19 cab companies in California claimed Wednesday in a lawsuit filed in federal court. The companies allege that Uber’s false claims hurt the profits and reputations of the taxi business, and are seeking an injunction against what they call false claims, and unspecified damages.

Profit at FedEx rises more than 50% FedEx Corp.’s third-quarter profit jumped more than 50 percent and beat Wall Street expectations on a mix of volume growth and lower fuel costs. The Memphis, Tennessee, package delivery company’s revenue edged up but missed expectations as lower fuel surcharges and unfavorable currency exchange rates tempered the benefits of volume growth. Its forecast for the full year also was below expectations. Its shares fell more than 2 percent in afternoon trading. The company earned $580 million, or $2.01 per share, for the three months ended Feb. 28.

That was up from $378 million, or $1.23 per share, a year ago.

STOCK MARKET SUMMARY

Markets rallied Wednesday after the Federal Reserve indicated it’s not in a hurry to raise interest rates. The Fed cut its forecasts for economic growth through 2017 and said that it needs to see more improvement in the job market and higher inflation before it raises rates.

OLYMPIA — Washington’s unemployment rate held steady at 6.3 percent in February, the state Employment Security Department reported on Wednesday.

Employment increased by 94,700 jobs from February 2014 to February 2015, with 83,400 of those jobs in the private sector and the rest in government, the agency said.

Washington’s revised unemployment rate for January was also 6.3 percent, down from the initial 6.4 percent. The nation’s unemployment rate was 5.5 percent.

The number of people who did

not have a job but actively looked for work in the past four weeks dropped from 224,400 in January to 222,300 in February, the agency said.

Employment Security paid unemployment benefits to 79,181 people in February.

The unemployment rate in the Everett/Seattle/Bellevue metropolitan area, the major population center, was 4.7 percent.

Washington’s resident labor force grew to more than 3.54 million people, both employed and unemployed, over the age of 16, the agency said.

“The continued expansion of the labor market shows that job seekers are more and more optimistic about

the possibility of finding a job,” said state labor economist Paul Turek.

“From year to year, Washington continues to enjoy steady job growth.”

The top five industry sectors with the largest employment gains from February 2014 to February 2015 were: ■ Construction, with 17,900 new jobs.

■ Professional and business services, 14,300 jobs.

■ Retail trade, 12,800 jobs.

■ Government, 11,300 jobs ■ Education and health services, 9,900 jobs.

The mining and logging industry lost 300 jobs from February 2014 to February 2015.

VW explores vans, pickups for U.S.

HANOVER, Germany — Volkswagen, which became part of U.S. pop culture with its bug-eyed Microbus, is looking at getting back into the U.S. van market.

The German company could also sell a pickup truck as it examines opportunities to broaden its range in North America, Eckhard Scholz, head of the light commercial vehicle unit, said Wednesday. “Pickup trucks are a dominating segment,” while there’s also a trend in the U.S. toward compact European vans, Scholz said. “We’re looking at both options intensively.”

Entering the U.S. light commercial vehicle market would complement Wolfsburg-based VW’s plan to become more than a niche manufacturer in the region and catch up with General Motors and Toyota.

Light trucks are helping drive U.S. sales at both companies, as cheaper gasoline has turned consumer tastes back toward big vehicles.

VW became the world’s secondlargest automaker by gaining market share just about everywhere except the U.S., where it has struggled since losing its No. 1 spot in the importedcar market to Toyota in 1975. It still occupies significant cultural territory for a baby-boomer generation that watched Herbie the anthropomorphic — and self-driving — Beetle in the 1968 Disney movie “The Love Bug” and saw the Bus build VW’s credentials among hippies and surfers.

Yet last year, when VW sold a record of more than 10 million vehicles around the world amid the strongest American car demand since 2006, VW-brand deliveries in the U.S. dropped 10 percent to 366,970 cars.

Part of the problem is a thin SUV lineup and the absence of a rival for Ford’s best-selling F-150. VW’s Amarok pickup truck, sold outside the U.S. where pickup trucks are less popular, is smaller than the Ford flagship.

In addition to the Amarok, VW’s light commercial vehicle division sells the Caddy, Crafter and T5 vans and minibuses. Western Europe accounted for 292,000 of the division’s 445,000 global vehicle sales last year. It also sells vehicles in eastern Europe, South America and the AsiaPacific region.

Volkswagen is investing about $7 billion in North America after a previous effort to broaden its appeal with a bigger, cheaper version of the Passat sedan for the U.S. market lost steam.

VW was slow to follow up with other new models after the Passat’s 2011 introduction.

2014 music business ‘essentially flat’ in U.S. Associated Press NEW YORK — A new report from the Recording Industry Association of America said that the U.S. retail music business was “essentially flat” in 2014 as streaming revenue grew while physical shipment revenue declined.

Overall, retail revenue declined about half of a percent to $6.97 billion.

Recorded music industry wholesale revenue, meanwhile, grew 2 percent to $4.86 billion.

The RIAA said the industry’s revenue mix last year was more balanced between physical, digital and

streaming sources than ever before.

Permanent downloads made up 37 percent of the total market, down from 40 percent in 2013. Streaming revenue was 27 percent of the total, up from 21 percent a year earlier. Physical shipment revenue was 32 percent of the total, down from 35 percent.

IN OUR VIEW | Sunshine Week

Democracy requires sunlight Sunshine Week, March 15-21, is intended to promote discussion and awareness of issues related to public disclosure and freedom of information laws, considered vital tools not only for journalists but for our democracy itself.

And this is how state and national officials have marked the occasion: ■■The Obama White House made official its policy, first advanced by the Bush administration and upheld in the courts, that exempts the Office of Administration, which is within the Executive Office of the President, from complying with the federal Freedom of Information Act. Much of the White House already was exempt from FOIA laws, specifically the president, vice president and many advisers.

■■Lawmakers in the

Washington state Legislature allowed a bill to die that would have required lawmakers to annually report meals paid for by lobbyists. A 2013 Associated Press investigation into lobbyist-paid meals found some lawmakers were eating regularly at lobbyist expense despite a law that said the meals had to be on an “infrequent” basis. Legislation last year defined “infrequent” as 12, but lawmakers balked this year at disclosing who pays for the meals and how much.

■■Need we go into any further detail about Hillary Clinton and her emails?

As a newspaper, The Herald relies heavily on public disclosure laws and the Freedom of Information Act. Rules that require political campaigns to report their donations and spending allow our reporters to keep tabs on

candidates and ballot measures and those who support them.

FOIA requests allow us to gather information vital to our reporting and can reveal details and revelations that otherwise could have gone unknown to the public.

Obviously, FOIA requests were imperative in the work

by Herald reporters Scott North and Noah Haglund into the 2013 investigation of former County Executive Aaron Reardon’s questionable actions related to his office and his political campaign.

The Herald also used FOIA requests in investigating the $85,000 that was paid to an Oso landowner for an easement to build a temporary road following the March 22, 2014 landslide, when all other landowners accepted far less.

FOIA requests were used

in compiling a November account of lawsuit settlements

by Snohomish County over deaths at its jail, vehicle accidents and, ironically, public records requests.

Most recently, an FOIA request was necessary in investigating sexual harassment complaints against Everett City Councilman Ron Gipson at his workplace, the Denney Juvenile Justice Center.

There’s an annual battle of legislation each year in the Legislature over public disclosure and freedom of information, some of it seeking to allow more sun to shine on the workings of government, some of it intended to keep those workings in the shadows.

Consider the examples above as reasons to keep the sun shining.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■HEALTH CARE

Medicare for all does make sense Regarding the guest commentary, “Medicare works; open it to everyone”: Another doctor who is retired, and has no ax to grind. Instead, he is giving us his opinion, based on working as a practicing physician and involved in the administration system. I, for one, think his opinion makes sense. Since the U.S. allows the health insurance to tack on 20 percent to the cost of our health care, including bloated executive salaries, no wonder it costs more than outside the U.S. And why should I, dying of cancer, be limited to which doctor I see? What happened to the power of the market? Finally, hundreds of millions of dollars are being spent to lobby Medicare to benefit rich corporations at the expense of ordinary patients. Let’s get rid of the complexities intended to make the rich richer and get Medicare available for all of us. Lower medicine costs and better treatment for all of us most in need.

■■EDUCATION

What a teacher needs to teach Personal ad of a disillusioned teacher: Nationally Board-Certified science teacher with over 20 years middle school experience seeking common sense and sanity brought back to public education.

My ideal job would cap classroom size at 25 students instead of my current 34. This would allow me to make individual connections with students on a daily basis and spend more time with those struggling academically.

My ideal job would allow me to spend more time teaching fewer concepts, making the learning richer and more meaningful. There would be more emphasis on learning and less emphasis on testing. Assessment, when it does occur, would be an integral part of the learning process, rather than an obstacle to learning.

My ideal job would have kids doing more with their hands and less time spent in front of a screen. I am not convinced that more technology and a paperless classroom in what’s best for the developing human brain.

My ideal job would take the learning outside. Most opportunities to teach using

In an effort to meet rigid national standards, teachers lose flexibility to enhance units with creative projects and enrichment activities. Such projects take time away from “getting to the next unit.”

My ideal job would evaluate me based upon what I do on a day-to-day basis with students.

The evaluation process would be a natural extension of what I’m already doing.

The goals I set for improvement would be ones that make sense to me rather than requiring me to jump through a contrived set of hoops. I would not be penalized for factors beyond my control.

I see my students less than one hour every day. With that time, I help each one succeed to the best of my ability. Success is as variable as the child and cannot be measured by one standardized test.

If you have a job opening meeting these criteria, you can contact me and many other disillusioned science teachers at middle schools throughout the country.

I look forward to your reply.

■■GOVERNMENT

Put all spending plans to public About the Snohomish County Courthouse fiasco: This was not voted upon by the taxpayers; it was just rammed down our throats as a decision our leaders made to benefit only themselves.

Then they goofed up by not even considering the need for parking! Now, the city of Everett is thinking of destroying part of the Historic District that the taxpayers paid dollars toward establishing (inventory and applications, plus sign replacement, etc). Our leaders are somewhat misguided and thinking they are all-powerful, I believe. It is time to put all issues before the voters/taxpayers and otherwise stop the actions that you are doing that cost taxpayers unnecessary expenses without any rational reasons for doing so.

■■TIMBER RESOURCE

Logging’s decline hurt Darrington Anyone with just a little bit of common sense knows that the slide at Highway 530, not at Oso, was not just a slide but an implosion. Water trapped behind millions of tons of dirt broke loose to create that kind of disaster, hence all the mud. Logging was not the reason this happened. Of course environmentalists need an excuse to keep any kind of timber harvest from happening.

Making sure that from now on environmental studies to keep “slides” from happening will create the impossibility of timber harvest, due to the high cost of the studies, keeping every one out of their playground.

Darrington, as well as a lot

of other small towns, depending on this renewable resource, used to be a thriving little town.

However, since the listing of the spotted owl in the ‘70s, it has become a shadow of its former existence. Creating a heaven for people on social existence for a living. Trees are a renewable resource. Rather than the redwood forest, which can live for thousand of years, western hemlock and fir trees do not. Take a good look at all the dead trees all over the mountains, just waiting for a lightning strike. The people in Darrington are the best environmentalists there are. After all, our bread and butter depend on it.

■■WORLD WAR II

Remember, Japan bombed us first In your article, “70 years ago, a balloon bomb landed in Everett,” Tom Crouch, senior curator of aeronautics at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., is quoted about the Japanese balloon bombs: “You have to put it in perspective. When the Japanese were doing this, we were burning Japanese cities down to the ground. It was sort of the ultimate Hail Mary pass.”

I should like to remind everyone that they attacked us first, with hardly any warning.

We were retaliating as one has to, to save ourselves.

Typical of today’s liberal thinking “we are always at fault.” Well. We are and were not. The Japanese have much to confess in their dealing of POWs, Chinese and Koreans.

Time they admitted, apologized and paid recompense. I will never buy Japanese until this is done.

Support grows for medical marijuana law

L

ast year, Congress passed an amendment that barred the Department of Justice from using federal dollars to prosecute medical marijuana dispensaries in states that have legalized them. Last week, three senators proposed a measure to clean up the federal-state medical marijuana mess once and for all.

Sens. Cory Booker, D-New Jersey, Kirsten Gillibrand, D-New York, and Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, introduced their Compassionate Access, DEBRA J. SAUNDERS Research Expansion and Respect States Act, which For decades, should draw support from Congress the right wouldn’t move and left.

Why? First, on medical it would marijuana reclassify marijuana because D.C. from a pols thought of Schedule I drug to a its advocates Schedule II, granting as goof-offs recognition who just want that marijuana has to get high. legitimate medical uses, a sop to the left. Second, it would direct the federal government to stop prosecuting dispensers in states that have legalized marijuana for medical use — a states’ rights emphasis that should draw GOP votes. The measure also would allow cannabidiol imports to help patients with epilepsy and seizure disorders — the folks who need medical marijuana the most — and allow Veterans Affairs doctors to prescribe medical marijuana. Booker sees his legislation as a matter of “common sense, fiscal prudence and compassion.”

For decades, Congress wouldn’t move on medical marijuana because D.C. pols thought of its advocates as goof-offs who just want to get high. They didn’t see the legitimate medical benefits. Then, two years ago, CNN physician-reporter Sanjay Gupta looked at the issue anew and found that cannabis could help children with life-threatening seizures. Medical marijuana has been used to treat people with epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease, brain tumors and post-traumatic stress disorder without the serious side effects often associated with prescription drugs.

The CARERS Act has bipartisan support. Already 23 states have legalized medical marijuana. “It stands a good chance of moving because it’s so bipartisan in nature,” said Bill Piper, the Drug Policy Alliance’s man in Washington, D.C. But: “The hard part is going to be getting it through committee.” Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, opposes the bill.

Will Grassley allow the bill to come to a vote? “The committee is unlikely to take up a bill in the near future that remakes these laws so broadly,” spokeswoman Jill Gerber answered. She added that Grassley “is looking at ways to lift any unnecessary barriers” to scientific research into marijuana-based medicines to treat epilepsy and other conditions affecting children.

There are 11 GOP and nine Democratic senators on the committee. I see three R’s who could vote yes; Mike Lee of Utah and Ted Cruz of Texas support states’ rights, and Jeff Flake of Arizona voted for similar legislation in the House.

That would put California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein in the middle.

Other committee Dems are very likely to vote yes. On the one hand, Feinstein and Grassley often work closely on drug war issues. On the other hand, Feinstein does represent California. Her office told me DiFi is still reviewing the legislation.

Would President Barack Obama sign the CARERS Act? Advocates believe that the White House could have and should have made marijuana a Schedule II drug years ago but didn’t. The administration has been behind the curve. “Everyone pretty much believes that” Obama is not really for current federal marijuana laws, said Marijuana Majority Chairman Tom Angell, just as many believed Obama supported same-sex marriage back when he said he was against it. “I wouldn’t be shocked to see him evolve on this issue the same way he did for marriage equality,” Angell mused. “Maybe all we need is for Joe Biden to say that marijuana should be legal.”

Blue North Fisheries tries ‘humane harvest’

By Hal Bernton The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — Kenny Down grew up in Ballard, and went to sea while a teenager. Working for years aboard Bering Sea longliners, he never thought much about the stress that fish might go through as they were unhooked and then — while still conscious — cut open and bled.

Now, the Down, 52, thinks about it a lot as chief executive of Blue North Fisheries, a Seattlebased company that Monday will

be launching a “humane harvest initiative” at the industry’s annual Seafood Expo in Boston.

By stunning the cod with an electrical charge before they are processed, Blue North wants to pioneer a kinder, gentler and, hopefully, better-tasting harvest.

“It is hard not to recognize that when these fish are out of the water, it is uncomfortable for them,” Down said.

“We recognize that the fish we harvest are sentient beings, and they deserve humane, conscientious treatment.”

So along with free-range chickens and grass-fed beef, Down is hoping consumers will one day seek out what Blue North will market as “humanely harvested, wild Alaska, line-caught cod.”

Blue North already has experimented aboard one of its vessels with an initial pneumatic stun system adapted from the salmon farming industry. It is now developing a more sophisticated system that will knock out the cod even before they are taken off the hooks.

The cod caught by Blue North

will still have to cope with getting hooked and brought to the surface, but Down says the fish suffer the most as they are brought on board.

He believes knocking them out as soon as they come out of the water will reduce stress and cut down on the release of hormones such as cortisol and the production of lactic acid. The end result should be better fillets that have longer shelf life, he says.

Blue North is working to document the benefits of the new stun systems with Mahmoudreza

Ovissipour, a research associate at Washington State University’s School of Food Science. Ovissipour previously analyzed the effects of a stun system from farm-reared sturgeon that produce caviar, and he is now analyzing samples of Blue North cod.

Blue North, which has four vessels and is building a fifth, is one of the largest companies working off Alaska with freezer longliners. Those vessels are expected to catch more than 41 million pounds of cod this year.

Dallas Seavey sails to third Iditarod win

By Mark Thiessen Associated Press

NOME, Alaska — If ever there was uncertainty about the outcome of the world’s most famous sled dog race, it was this year.

Warm weather and a lack of snow in much of Alaska forced organizers of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race to forge an untested route, utilizing the state’s extensive system of frozen rivers.

Many wondered: Would the new trail make the race faster or easier? Would it benefit mushers more accustomed to racing on ice? Or would warm temperatures create new hazards on the rivers?

Dallas Seavey proved the short answer to all of those questions was “no” Wednesday when he won the race for the third time in four years.

The Alaska musher crossed the finish line in the Bering Sea coastal town of Nome at 4:13 a.m., completing the route in eight days, 8 hours, 13 minutes and 6 seconds. That’s about five hours longer than the record he set in winning the 2014 race.

“Obviously going into this race, the big hubbub was all about the new trail, right?” Seavey told a packed convention hall. Concerns were about the “warm, warm, warm winter” and conditions on the Yukon River.

In fact, a snowmobile sank on thin ice on part of the route mushers were about to take.

Some were considering buying rain gear.

But then winter came back to Alaska.

“We saw a lot of 40-, 50-below zero, snow,” said Seavey, of Willow. “This was a very tough race.

It was not the easy run that a lot of people had anticipated for the Yukon River.”

Seavey’s father, Mitch, finished in second place Wednesday, followed by Aaron Burmeister.

Behind them en route to Nome were Jessie Royer and Aliy Zirkle.

Before the race, some wondered if musher Pete Kaiser would have an advantage because of his experience racing on ice. Kaiser won this year’s Kuskokwim 300, which is run entirely on a river. He was in 13th

Dallas Seavey poses with his lead dogs Reef (left) and Hero in Nome, Alaska on Wednesday at the finish line of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Seavey won his third Iditarod in the last four years, beating his father, Mitch, to the finish line after racing 1,000 miles across Alaska.

Mitch Seavey drives his team into White Mountain on Tuesday during the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. He finished second.

place late Wednesday morning.

Dallas Seavey said that after the route change, the race came down to different mushing styles.

“I think going into this race, we all knew the winner would be who could maximize this new trail and take advantage of that,”

he said.

He used two different styles: First, he was more aggressive than usual early on, running near the front of the pack. Then, he let loose what he calls the “monster,” a team that can finish strong, building speed at the end.

Dallas Seavey petted and hugged his dogs after his victory.

“I really do believe this is one of the best teams there’s ever been,” he told reporters and fans at a finish-line ceremony that was live-streamed online. “That may just be overly proud pet parent talking, but they did just win the Iditarod, so that’s some credibility.”

He was presented with $70,000 — $19,600 more than last year — and the keys to a new pickup truck.

Dallas Seavey became the race’s youngest champion in

2012 at age 25. He also won last year in a race he figures he should have placed third.

A freak storm blew out the leaders, and he came across the finish line and didn’t realize he’d won until a cameraman told him.

His father, who lives in Sterling, is a two-time champion. Mitch Seavey won in 2004, and a year after Dallas became the race’s youngest winner, Mitch became its oldest at 53.

A total of 78 mushers began this year’s race March 9 in Fairbanks. Eight racers later scratched, and one was disqualified.

Two dogs have died this year, including one that was hit by a car after getting loose during the ceremonial start.

The other dog was on four-time champion Lance Mackey’s team.

Oregon bill would OK Slain prostitute’s pimp pleads guilty sunscreen use in schools

By Steven Dubois

Associated Press SALEM, Ore. — The Oregon House unanimously passed legislation Wednesday allowing students to apply sunscreen or wear sun-protective clothing during school hours and at school-sponsored events.

Proponents say Oregon schools allow only specific over-thecounter drugs on their campuses, such as topical steroid creams or antihistamines, and sunscreen was not on that list.

Nikki Steinsiek, a medical student at Oregon Health & Science University, said during a hearing on the bill that because sunscreen contains several active ingredients, it is considered an over-the-counter drug by the federal Food and Drug Administration.

“Currently, school policies concerning sunscreen vary widely across Oregon because it is unclear whether students are allowed to bring and apply their own sunscreen at school,” Steinsiek said.

The issue came to light when a donor wanted to contribute sunscreen to a high school sporting event in order to protect students from getting sunburned, but because Oregon’s statutes are unclear on sunscreen use, school administrators declined the gift, she said.

The measure also allows school personnel to help students apply sunblock without risk of liability.

Rep. Alissa Keny-Guyer, D-Portland, noted that Oregon has the fifth-highest rate of melanoma in the country.

The bill now goes to the Senate.

Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — The boyfriend and pimp of a Portland woman murdered by a Marine in Hawaii two years ago pleaded guilty Wednesday to a human trafficking charge.

Mark Miles Jr., 36, also known as “Meezilini,” admitted to U.S. District Judge Robert E. Jones in Portland that he transported Ivanice “Ivy” Harris across state lines to engage in prostitution.

Harris was a day shy of her 29th birthday when she was killed by Marine Master Sgt. Nathaniel Cosby.

Honolulu police said surveillance footage showed Cosby and Harris meeting outside a bar and kissing in the elevator of the hotel where he was staying.

Police said the Marine was later seen loading a large duffel bag into an SUV. Harris’ body was later found more than 30 miles away.

Cosby, who was in Hawaii on a temporary assignment from Japan, was convicted last year of murder, obstruction of justice and patronizing a prostitute.

He is serving a life sentence in a military prison.

Miles was one of 10 Portlandarea pimps indicted last year following an FBI-led enforcement called “Operation Traffic Stop.”

Prosecutors said the men violated the Mann Act and the Travel Act by transporting young women from Portland to states such as Hawaii, Alaska, Idaho, Minnesota and Nevada.

Miles, a rapper who recorded

an album titled “Voice Of The Streets,” made no statement Wednesday beyond answering questions from the judge in a clear voice.

Harris’ parents were among the friends and family who supported Miles at Wednesday’s hearing.

“That man didn’t make her do nothing,” Harris’ father, Marion Ivan Greer, said after the hearing.

“They were trying to taste that pot of gold. Both of them were out of line and it was all done for nothing,” he said.

Miles is scheduled to be sentenced June 24. Assistant U.S. Attorney Craig Gabriel and defense lawyer Noel Grefenson jointly recommend three years in federal prison.

The judge is not bound by the recommendation but said he will likely follow it.

When there’s a pet, homelessness just gets harder

By Nathan Bruttell Corvallis Gazette-Times

CORVALLIS, Ore. — Bob Brokaw has spent several nights in a dumpster just to avoid the rain and keep warm.

The 57-year-old homeless man knows there is a warm bed and food available between November and March at the Men’s Cold Weather Shelter in Corvallis. But going there would mean having to give up his best friend and the only one who has stuck by him through the worst years of his life — his border collie, Lucas.

Brokaw and Lucas have been inseparable for more than eight years. Wherever Brokaw goes, Lucas follows. But animals are not allowed into the cold weather shelters unless they are certified as service animals. “I’m not getting rid of my dog to go indoors. I’ll just bundle up,� Brokaw said. “That’s a hard way to wake

up. But I’m not going to leave him.�

Every additional dollar Brokaw receives, whether from collecting cans and bottles or from charity, goes to feeding Lucas. “He eats what I eat and every time I have something extra, he gets it,�

Brokaw said. “I’d rather have him be healthy.

He’s better than me. He deserves it more.�

Kathleen Harrington, who has been homeless for 12 years, said she rides around Corvallis every day looking for a place where she and her longhaired Dachshund, Happy, will be welcome — or at least free from harassment. “It’s scary sleeping out in the open and being a girl all by yourself,� Harrington said. “I sleep underneath the shelters at Avery Park from time to time. It’s really tough to get out of the rain sometimes. And there are no options for homeless people with pets.�

Brokaw and Harrington

Honors for two colleges

RENTON — Two Washington colleges were recognized this week as among the top 10 community colleges in the nation.

The Aspen Institute has named Renton Technical College and Olympic College in Bremerton as finalists in its national prize competition.

The institute recognized Renton Tech for its impressive graduation and transfer rate of 66 percent, compared to a national average of 40 percent.

Olympic College was honored for its career-oriented programs and connecting students to good jobs.

Bellingham: Boiler explodes A boiler turned into a bomb inside a Bellingham home and the family’s nanny-cam captured the powerful explosion on camera. The video shows the family room loaded with toys and balls and a deflated kid-size blow-up house.

KOMO-TV reported the video then shows the wall exploding. Debris, nails, dry wall, insulation, and wood goes in every direction. A plume of steam then fills the room. Homeowner Chris Renoud said the boiler was ripped from its foundation and launched 15 feet across the room.

I’m not getting rid of my dog to go indoors. I’ll just bundle up. — Bob Brokaw, homeless resident of Corvallis

are two of the estimated 100 homeless people living with pets in Benton County.

The National Coalition on Homelessness estimates that of the 3.5 million Americans who are homeless, nearly 10 percent own dogs or cats.

Occupy Corvallis and Oregon State University’s Shelter Medicine Club offers free exams, vaccinations and preventative care for homeless animals twice each year as part of the “Street Dawgs and Cats Care Fair.�

The groups helped nearly 40 homeless pets receive care in October and the next fair is scheduled for May.

Seattle: Crane hits traffic sign; 8 hurt The Washington State Patrol said a construction crane hit an overhead traffic sign Tuesday night on the west end of the Highway 520 Bridge across Lake Washington, knocking the sign onto a transit bus. The Seattle Fire Department said eight people were evaluated for minor injuries and sent to hospitals.

The other tunnel reaches milestone Seattle’s other tunnel boring machine — the one working to create a transit tunnel to the University of Washington campus — has completed a 1.5 mile segment of a 4.3-mile tunnel

“The homeless are generally very good pet owners but taking care of pets can cost a lot of money. You’d never guess there were so many animals on the streets because they keep such good care of them,� fair organizer Stephanie Hampton said previously. “Many people we work with equate Heartland with taking their animal to jail. I know people who have animals who will not go to the shelter because they’d have to give the animals up.�

Emily James, development director at Heartland Humane Society, said the organization recognizes there is a need for stable preventative care and

that will allow light rail trains to go from Northgate Mall to the university starting in 2021. The tunnel is one of six being mined as part of the Northgate light rail expansion.

$900M roads levy Seattle Mayor Ed Murray is pushing a $900 million levy to pay for transportation improvements. The property tax levy would replace the $365 million “Bridging the Gap� levy, which expires in 2015. Murray hopes to put the new measure on the fall ballot. It would pay for things like seismically reinforcing 16 vulnerable bridges and repaving 250 lane-miles of arterial streets. The mayor’s office said the old levy cost the owner of a $450,000 home about $130 per year.

temporary housing options in Corvallis, but space limitations and legal issues prevent Heartland from providing care to pets that the organization does not own. “I would be performing veterinary care without a license (if the animals are not ours),� James said. “In those cases, people have the option to sign their animals over to us, and in those cases we’ll do what we can. But we understand it’s difficult for people to give up their pets.�

Heartland representatives are scheduled to meet with a consultant this month to discuss the possibility of the shelter opening up permanent, no-cost veterinary care at the facility, James said. “There are no options for that locally for people in Benton County,� she said. “We feel like that’s our role and we really want to figure out a way we can do it. We need to find a solution that allows us to be compliant

with the law and ideally provide limited veterinary services full-time.�

The Corvallis Daytime Drop-In Center’s Advocates for Pets of Homeless People provide one-onone service assistance to homeless pets.

Organizers have provided assistance in getting animals certified as service or companion animals, helped pet owners find low-cost veterinary care and provided connections to charity organizations and programs around Corvallis. But funding for the program itself is severely limited, said co-coordinator Peter Ewald. “It’s not a strong program because we don’t have the funds or the volunteers we need to do it,�

Ewald said. “But when people have the needs come in to the drop-in center, we help them out to the point we can. We’re not able to do everything they need, but we do everything we can.�

The new levy would cost the same homeowner $275 a year.

Olympia: Threat of hantavirus

Spokane: Wildfire and storm warning The state is warning that Eastern Washington faces a run of dust storms and wildfires in coming months, thanks to a looming drought. The Department of Ecology said said spring and summer thunderstorms will bring the threat of dust storms to the Columbia Basin and lightning-caused wildfires throughout the region. The agency said strong winds blowingoverloosesoilcancause desert-style storms known as haboobs. They can make driving hazardous, knock out power, close schools and cause breathing issues.

State health officials warn that spring cleaning can involve some health dangers.

People who uncover signs of mice or other rodents need to take precautions to avoid catching a rodent-carried disease like hantavirus. Hantavirus cases are most common people clean cabins, campers and other places where rodents live.

When cleaning in rodent-infested areas, first thoroughly wet the area with a bleach solution or disinfectant and soak for 10 minutes before any sweeping or vacuuming.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: A steady and progressive approach to whatever you want to see unfold will not let you down. You can make your dreams come true and bask in the glory that comes with success. Let your mind wander. Your numbers are 9, 14, 20, 28, 32, 36, 48.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t give up — get moving. Put your energy to good use and start something you’ve wanted to do for some time. It’s up to you to make things happen. Try something new ��� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): An empathetic approach to a cause will lead you to influential people. Don’t feel you have to make a substantial donation to impress someone. Offering hands-on help will be sufficient and give you a chance to network with prospective partners. ���� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Doing things you enjoy with people who share your interests and outlook will give you a boost.

Try not to let work-related matters get to you. A colleague will use deception to make you look bad. �� CANCER (June 21-July 22): You’ll have the imagination and originality to finish what you started with a creative twist. The satisfaction you get from your accomplishment will put you in a celebratory mood.

Make plans for two. ����� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Face a challenge with discipline and the willingness to do whatever it takes to come out on top. Your ability to adapt to change and turn a lemon into lemonade will give you the edge and bring you respect among your peers. ���

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A poor investment or spending to impress someone will add to your stress. Emotional matters will crop up when dealing with both personal and professional partners. ��� LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Listen to someone who is questioning your plans. Don’t make an impulsive move if you want to keep the peace. Ease your way into what you would like to see happen. ��� SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Ppromote what you’ve been working on. Focus on expressing your views and offering insight to those who share your views. Make positive changes to the way you live. ����� SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Opposition is likely to surface if you are evasive or ignore emotional situations that need to be dealt with. A change at home should help you cut corners and improve a situation that has legal or financial implications. �� CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Use your skills, education and business sense to get ahead. A new approach to an old idea will capture attention. A partnership may be offered, but before you accept, consider moving forward on your own. ���� AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Make changes that can help raise your income or improve your current professional status.

A partnership will enhance your ability to take care of the details and will give you a chance to rejuvenate. ��� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Problems getting along with someone in an influential position will surface. Using charm will help you bypass a setback in your plans.

Make an effort to improve yourself instead of trying to change others. ��� Universal Uclick

M’s unveil ‘pretty epic’ new batch of commercials Tom Wilhelmsen and Charlie Furbush play starring roles in popular TV spots.

Hungry to repeat

Fresh off a 4A state title, Snohomish will not rest on its laurels Inside

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

GENNA MARTIN / THE HERALD

Snohomish’s Coleman French (front) protects the ball from Hal Uderitz during a drill at practice on Wednesday evening.

Even for a premier boys soccer program like Snohomish, winning a state championship is never a sure thing.

But neither is it necessarily a surprise.

As the Panthers prepared for last season, they were loaded with both talent and, not surprisingly, confidence. Having reached the state semifinals the year before, and with many of the same players returning, Snohomish felt good about its chances to make a run at a Class 4A state title.

Recalling the start of last season, “we expected to get to the final four and our mindset was that we would win it,” said Panthers coach Dan Pingrey.

“From Day 1, that was (the players’) direction and that was their focus. And that’s what we expected as a coaching staff as well.”

“We were showing great potential throughout the whole season,” agreed midfielder Blake Crutchfield, a key member of last year’s squad, “and I totally thought that we had a great shot at winning a state championship.”

◗ Six Boys Soccer Players to Watch: Samuel Agyei (Cascade), Gus Baxter (Snohomish), Brady Henderson (Archbishop Murphy), Silvan Katynskiy (Mariner), Sebastian Navarro (Marysville Pilchuck) and Griffin Small (Edmonds-Woodway), C3 As it turned out, the team’s expectations were right on the money. Snohomish rolled to first place in the Wesco 4A North, then won a district title, and then defeated Rogers (2-1), Skyline (2-1) and Kentwood (2-0) in state playoff games to reach the final where the Panthers edged Ferris 2-1 for the state championship.

Throughout the season, “the guys played well and scored some good goals, and I’m really proud of that from a team perspective,” Pingrey said. “And ultimately the final win and the effort the guys put into it was awesome.”

A year later, not much has changed at Snohomish.

The Panthers are once again See SNOHOMISH, Page C3

PEORIA, Ariz. — Start looking for this year’s collection of the Seattle Mariners’ commercials. They came out Wednesday morning and, to quote soon-tobe-video-star Charlie Furbush, they are “pretty epic.”

Furbush and bullpen partner Tom Wilhelmsen become instant icons as hair-band fans rocking out to Hawt Corner’s musical tribute to third baseman Kyle Seager’s defensive skills.

“That’s just both of us excited to see our favorite band,” Wilhelmsen said. “There was no acting. It was all just the love of life.”

It is all that and more.

The commercials were filmed in February at the Peoria Sports Complex and are a collaboration between the Mariners and Seattle-based ad agency Copacini + Fujikado.

There are four spots:

Where did it go?

First baseman Logan Morrison explains to disbelieving newcomer Nelson Cruz that, while you can’t see them, those Fernando Rodney’s pantomime victory celebration arrows are real.

That spot ends with an inflatable playhouse collapsing as a man wearing an A’s cap collapses to his knees while screaming, “Rodney!”

Intensely intense Catcher Mike Zunino lines up a cell-phone group selfie with several starting pitchers that initially excludes Felix Hernandez because of his intensity.

The King cajoles his way into the shot ... with predictable results.

Bat control Robinson Cano lashes one line drive after another to any location specified by hitting coach Howard Johnson and others. (That one is pretty close that what actually happens in batting practice.)

Manager Lloyd McClendon walks by at one point and instructs Cano to drive the ball at a guy about to place a flier on McClendon’s car in the parking lot. Cano delivers.

Hawt Corner And then there’s Furbush and Wilhelmsen emerging as stars of the entire campaign by turning their supporting roles into ... well, Furbush is right: something pretty epic.

The spot centers on a series of clips highlighting the defensive skills that turned Seager See MARINERS, Page C4

Youthful Panthers blank Grizzlies Freshman Bailey Greenlee tosses four strong innings as Snohomish beats Glacier Peak 11-0.

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — Half of the 14 players on the Snohomish softball team are freshmen, but you wouldn’t have known it by the way they played in an 11-0 victory over Glacier Peak on Wednesday.

The game ended after five innings due to the 10-run mercy rule.

It was the first home game for Snohomish’s new class of

talent and head coach Lou Kennedy said the girls had a youthful exuberance before the game.

“You are talking about seven freshmen,” he said.

“You know how wound up they are to play at home today for the first time. They’re bouncing off the ceilings.

It’s just trying to calm them down and get them going, but they’re terrific kids.”

Calming his team didn’t turn out to be a problem.

Freshman Bailey Greenlee set the tone in the pitcher’s circle in the first inning, retiring Glacier Peak’s first three batters in order.

Greenlee went on to pick up her second win of the year, giving up just one hit and striking out three in four innings.

“She can be overpowering,” Kennedy said. “Her first two or three changeups were about 121⁄2 feet off the ground.

After that, she threw three or four of them for just plain strikeouts. When you can See PANTHERS, Page C3

OUTDOOR OUTLOOK

Familiar names best at Everett derby at the Ocean Shores Convention Center. For information, go to www. oceanshores.org/clams, or call 360-289-2451.

State razor clam manager Dan Ayres says there are a lot of clams remaining to be dug, and that “they’re bigger now and growing all the time.”

“We have a nice mix of sizes on all the beaches,” Ayres says, “so there are no particular ‘hot’ spots. Some of the larger clams, however, have been coming from Mocrocks beaches and the north end of Copalis Beach.”

This will be the first time this winter season that Copalis will be open on consecutive days.

There are also a couple of pretty good tides over the weekend, although the long-range forecast called for 9-foot swells on Friday. That’s not great, but still diggable, Ayres says. At 12 feet or above, forget it.

The tide schedule for the remainder of this series is as follows: March 20, minus 0.4 feet at 7:26 p.m. on all beaches except Kalaloch; March 21, minus 0.5 feet at 7:55 AM, on all beaches except Kalaloch; March 22, minus 0.7 feet at 8:42 a.m. on all beaches except Kalaloch; March 23, minus 0.6 feet at 9:31 a.m. on Long Beach and Twin Harbors only; and March 24, minus 0.3 feet at 10:21 a.m. on Long Beach and Twin Harbors.

PICK OF THE WEEK | Local trout lakes

WAYNE KRUSE

S

ome folks just plain know how to catch fish, apparently, because their names keep popping up on the lists of local salmon derby money winners.

As evidence, take last Saturday’s Everett Blackmouth Derby.

It was won by Dale Helgesson who, in the words of Lake Stevens resident, outdoor talk show host, and observer of the local salmon scene Tom “Nelly” Nelson, “...is the son of former Marysville Fire Chief Mel Helgesson. He won the event when the wind shifted to the north and blew his boat into shallower water on the north side of Hat Island. Yep, he was dragging the racetrack, got a little too far south, and popped a 16.12 pounder (cleaned weight) to win $3K. “Meanwhile, I ran to Midchannel Bank ‘cause I supposedly know what I’m doing and got skunked.”

Another familiar name, Ron Lampers, took second and $1,500 with a blackmouth of 14.18 cleaned pounds. This was the second derby in a row (Hot Plug’s, the week before, was the other) in which Lampers went home with second money. Scott Bumstead, another experienced fisherman, took third and $500 for a fish of 11.72 pounds, while a perennial name on the derby lists, Lance Husby, had to settle for eighth place.

Woody Woods, derby chairman and board member of the sponsoring Everett Steelhead and Salmon Club, said the wind, under a small craft advisory, was a tough, and possibly dangerous, opponent. “I was a very happy man when everybody was on the beach and accounted for,” he said.

NCAA TOURNAMENT Roundup

|

Dayton rallies to stun Boise St. Associated Press DAYTON, Ohio — Kendall Pollard scored 17 points, and Dayton used every bit of its home-court advantage on Wednesday night, rallying for a 56-55 win over Boise State in the First Four.

The Flyers (26-8) will play sixthseeded Providence on Friday in Columbus, Ohio.

It was the first time since 1987 that a school has played an NCAA Tournament game on its home court, an anomaly resulting from Dayton hosting the opening games.

The Flyers trailed by seven with 3:43 to go. With the crowd of 12,592 behind them — the biggest attendance for a First Four game — Dayton closed with a 10-2 run.

Robert Morris 81, N. Florida 77 DAYTON, Ohio — Lucky Jones scored 21 points, including a key free throw, to lead Robert Morris back from a 14-point second-half deficit to beat North Florida in the First Four.

The Colonials (20-14) now meet top-seeded Duke in the second round on Friday in Charlotte.

The state Department of Fish and Wildlife has started its spring trout planting schedule, beginning with some popular year-around waters.

The rainbow are approximately three to the pound in size, about 10 inches or so, and were planted last week. The plants were as follows: Snohomish County: Lake Ballinger, 6,500 trout; Flowing Lake, 6,000; North Gissberg Pond (juveniles only), 500; South Gissberg Pond, 1,500; Lake Roesiger, 2,400; Lake Martha (Warm Beach), 4,000; and Silver Lake, 8,500.

Island County: Lone Lake, 4,000

In spite of the lousy weather, entrants weighed 17 fish, compared to last year’s 27, and the size was pretty good. The seventh place fish was probably a 13-pounder in the round.

“Area 8-2 was popular,” Woods said, “because the east side of Whidbey offered at least a little protection from the wind. But we had fishermen at Midchannel, Liplip Point, Point No Point — all over.”

Woods said he thought a Coho Killer spoon took the winning chinook, and that the lure was used by a lot of participants.

The derby has been drawing from an increasingly wide demographic, and Woods said “We had one guy from Kansas, two boats from Yakima, and two more from Vancouver, B.C.”

Trout Spokesman Mark Spada said the Snohomish Sportsman’s Club has started planting rainbow in Blackman’s Lake. The first plant of about 600 fish was made last week, in addition to the state plant of “catchables.” Spada said the club’s trout, purchased with funds generated by the annual Everett Coho Derby, run from 12 inches to lunkers as heavy as six pounds.

Blackman’s Lake lies on the north edge of Snohomish and has good public access including fishing piers.

No trout Five popular trout lakes in Grant County, among a group in the Columbia Basin due to open to fishing on April 1, will have no planted fish.

trout.

The fish tend to stay in the shallow, warmer water along shorelines, and in the top six or eight feet of the water column until they’ve acclimated to their new digs, so don’t go too deep for the first couple of weeks. Trolling allows you to cover more water, and any of a range of small lures will work: Dick Nite Spoons, Rooster Tails, Triple Teasers and others. A brown, black or olive wet fly, trolled on monofilament with a single small split shot, can be deadly.

— Wayne Kruse

That’s zero trout, after the lakes were treated with rotenone last fall to get rid of stunted pumpkinseed sunfish.

After “rehabilitating” lakes, WDFW usually restocks with catchable-size rainbow in the 11- to 13-inch range.

But five lakes — Sago, Hourglass, Widgeon, and Upper and Lower Hampton — lie within the Columbia National Wildlife Refuge managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which prohibits stocking refuge waters with catchable-size gamefish, said WDFW district fish biologist Chad Jackson in Ephrata.

This spring, WDFW hatchery crews will stock the five lakes with rainbow fingerlings measuring two to four inches in length, which will grow to harvestable size by next year’s opener. Meanwhile, waters currently open to fishing include Martha, Upper Caliche, Quincy, Burke and the Quincy walk-in lakes, as well as Blythe, Canal, Chukar, Corral, Heart, Windmill and North Windmill lakes.

The April 1 opener will include Pillar, Snipe, Cattail, Gadwall, Poacher, Shoveler and Lemna. North and South Teal lakes also open April 1 and should fish very well this year, Jackson said.

Springers State biologist Joe Hymer in the Vancouver WDFW office says the popular spring chinook run in the lower Columbia River continues to build, but that it might be a week or two before peak fishing success rates begin to show. Checks last week of about 900 anglers in 300 boats tallied 62 chinook caught, of which 51 were kept. Hymer says the best checks came from the Woodland area, but that fish were caught all the way down to Cathlamet.

The river is still fishable, running at 150,000 to 200,000 cubic feet per second, he said.

The catch is currently a mix of fiveyear fish going from the high teens to 30-plus pounds, and four-year fish weighing 12 to 15 pounds. Hymer added that two springers were caught last week on the Kalama.

The 247 adult spring chinook counted at Bonneville Dam through March 15 is the highest total through that date since 2003. Last year, only six adult kings had been counted through March 15, and the latest 10year average is 30 fish.

Good times on the beaches A trifecta of events should draw crowds to the coastal beaches this weekend, including the Ocean Shores Razor Clam Festival, the switch from evening digging tides to the more popular morning tides, and a last chance to use the 2014-15 fishing licenses.

The 9th annual clam festival is scheduled for Friday, 2-7 p.m.; Saturday, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.; and Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. A range of activities, including a clam chowder cook-off and kids’ events, take place

Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — Say this for Eastern Washington coach Jim Hayford: he’s confident about his Eagles heading into the NCAA Tournament against Georgetown.

So confident, in fact, that Hayford predicted on a national radio show Wednesday that his team would win. He told listeners of The Jim Rome Show on CBS Sports Radio they could advance the Eagles in their brackets and ended the interview by telling the host: “We’re gonna win. Talk again, Jim.” Of course, the idea isn’t that farfetched.

Since 2009, the Hoyas are just 1-4 in the tournament. All four losses came against teams seeded 10th or worse, and three of those losses came by double digits.

Eastern Washington, seeded 13th in the South Region, will try to be the next overachieving underdog to down Georgetown when they face the fourthseeded Hoyas on Thursday

night in Portland.

The Hoyas (21-10) are well aware of all the chatter surrounding the game. Georgetown coach John Thompson III said his players told him of Hayford’s headline-grabbing interview, and they’re as eager as anybody to show — and not talk — about what they can do.

“We all know what’s at stake,” said Hoyas guard Jabril Trawick. “We’re all Division I basketball players. We’re all playing for something. We don’t feed into it that much.

We’re just happy that we’re here. We’re just ready to play.”

Eastern Washington (26-8) is a popular pick to be one of those surprise teams that pop up every spring for more reasons than Georgetown’s recent resume.

The Eagles are a guard-oriented group led by national scoring leader Tyler Harvey (22.9 points per game). They shoot a ton of 3-pointers, and they played a nonconference schedule that included a win at Indiana and close losses at SMU, Washington and California.

Eastern Washington has

shown some fight already this March, too. The Eagles rallied to beat Montana in the Big Sky championship for the program’s second NCAA Tournament berth and first since 2004, when they lost to Oklahoma State.

For Georgetown, March has been filled with a lot of letdowns lately.

The Hoyas last made it out of the round of 32 in 2007, when they advanced to the Final Four. Georgetown, which plays in the more difficult Big East, settled for an NIT invitation last year after getting upset as a No. 2 seed by NCAA Tournament newcomer and No. 15 seed Florida Gulf Coast in 2013.

Thompson has been preaching to his players to look forward, not backward, knowing winning is the only thing that will erase the memory of those March meltdowns.

“The facts are the facts. That being said, this is a different team than we have here now.

This is a different year,” Thompson said. “So we’re ready for this group to play.”

Soccer Players to Watch

PREP | Scoreboard BASEBALL Bothell 6, Jackson 2

Samuel Agyei Cascade | forward

At Jackson H.S. Bothell Jackson

Brady Henderson Archbishop Murphy | midfielder A member of Everett’s esteemed Henderson soccer family (grandfather Dick Henderson, dad Pat Henderson and uncle Chris Henderson), Brady Henderson is one of the area’s top players. “Everybody knows who he is,” said Archbishop Murphy coach Mike Bartley.

“He’s well known as a very good player by all the kids (on opposing teams).” Henderson will be more of an attacking midfielder this season, Hartley said, “and it’s going to fall on him to try to push the team forward, create opportunities, score goals and win games.”

Silvan Katynskiy Mariner | goalkeeper An outstanding student (3.88 GPA) and equally strong athlete, Katynskiy has enough soccer skills that “we’re going to play him a little bit on defense this season,” said Marauders coach Vince DeSimone. “He’s a pretty good defender.” But Katynskiy was one of two All-Wesco 4A South first-team goalies last season and at that

Greenlee is expected to split time pitching with junior Alyssa Simons this season. Senior Shayleh Shamrock is also available to pitch if needed.

“I like a two-pitcher rotation,” Kennedy said.

“We do have a third if we need her if we have injury problems.

(Shamrock) will probably throw a little next week, but a one-two punch of Bailey and Alyssa can be overpowering.”

He’s an excellent player.” Small, who will play next season at St. Martin’s University, is “very good at taking care of balls out of the air and he has very good range side to side,” Gilman said.

to step in for Peters.

Some of those decisions might take a few weeks to unfold, but Pingrey is still encouraged by the potential of “an upperclass team” with eight seniors and five juniors, and a squad that “is probably deeper than we had last year. ... I have a lot of

players that can play multiple positions.”

Along with Crutchfield and Baxter, the Panthers will rely on the talent and veteran experience of senior forward Tanner Corrie (the team’s No. 2 scorer last season) and junior midfielder Eric Jones. In addition,

freshman on the team expected to make an impact. Sami Reynolds, or “the clone” as Kennedy referred to her, made her presence known on Wednesday — not just for her play, but for her resemblance to Trysten Melhart, who graduated last June as perhaps the greatest player ever to don a Snohomish jersey.

Reynolds wears the same jersey number, is similar in stature and even wears a bow in her hair similar to one Melhart used to wear.

“It about kills you to see her from a distance,” Kennedy said of Reynolds.

“She’s going to be a great player. She’s got excellent speed and really fast bat speed. She’s a solid gap hitter. ... She’s got a work

ethic. She’s got a motor that never stops. It’s going to be four more years of fun out there.”

Reynolds went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored.

In addition to the seven freshmen on varsity, Kennedy said there are even more on the junior varsity team.

“There are three or four (freshmen) kids on JV that in a normal year probably would have been on varsity, but this year is just a freak of nature,” Kennedy said. “It’s a huge class. At least 12 of them play good level select ball. When you hear about them coming in you get all excited, and then you see them. They don’t just play select ball, they’re good at select ball.”

Of the Panthers’ 11 runs, just two scored off of hits. The other nine scored predominantly because of passed balls and walks. All seven freshmen, along with the team’s veterans, showed tremendous patience at the plate throughout the game.

“You’ve got to always play a smart game,” Kennedy said. “Typically our philosophy is, if we are facing a dominant, overpowering pitcher than we get more aggressive.

If we’re playing someone who is picking corners and trying too hard to get you to chase something than we get more patient.

Will that work with freshmen?

“I don’t know. We’ll find out.”

Pingrey is excited about the potential shown by freshman forward Hal Uderitz.

In the upcoming season, “I expect to see some bumps in the road,” said Pingrey, who also coached Snohomish to state titles in 2000 and 2006. “It’s not going to be easy, and a lot of that is because of what everybody else throws at you. Everybody is going to come after us, that’s a given. So even though last year was great, we can’t rest on those laurels.”

The good news, he went on, is that the Panthers “are very hungry (to repeat). And it’s fun to watch these guys getting prepared to go forward and to make something happen. ... They know how tough it is to repeat, but they’re very excited to do that.”

“This team is really hungry,” Baxter confirmed.

“Especially all of us seniors because we know what it feels like to win. We’re all definitely hungry to get to the championship game again because that feeling is so surreal.”

A first-team All-Wesco 3A North pick last season, Navarro is a “dynamic” player, according to Tomahawks coach Paul Bartley. “He can control the ball really well in the midfield, and he makes other players better because they know he’s going to distribute the ball to them,” Bartley said. “He has a really well-rounded game as far as playing on offense and defense.” Navarro expects to play college soccer next season, “and he has several schools talking to him at this time,” Bartley added.

loaded, once again filled with confidence, and once again taking aim at a state title.

“With all the guys we have returning, I totally think we have an opportunity to win it again,” said Crutchfield, now a senior.

“We know we have a big target on our backs, but we’re ready for the heat,” agreed senior defender Gus Baxter. “We can definitely do it again.”

There are a few questions, of course. The Panthers lost five seniors from last year’s 20-2 team, including three starters. Among the graduates were leading scorer Uriel Herrera and starting goalkeeper Ryan Peters, both first-team all-conference selections.

Pingrey, who is starting his 15th season as the team’s head coach, is looking for ways to replace Herrera’s scoring and to find a goalkeeper

Baxter was a big part of Snohomish’s run to the 2014 Class 4A state championship. A first-team All-Wesco 4A North selection a year ago, he is “a kid that’s just been coming into his own,” said Panthers coach Dan Pingrey. “He’s a guy that’s really going to keep getting better over the next four or five years. … He’s always had a good technical body, and now he’s growing into his body.”

Agyei was a first-team All-Western Conference 4A South choice in 2014, and he seems destined for similar success this season. He is, said Bruins coach Sam Croft, “one of the better strikers in the league.” Agyei has the ability “to take on multiple defenders with a lot of confidence and then to make the right decision when he has the ball,” Croft went on. “He’ll be up top as one of our major playmakers on offense, not a doubt, and we’re looking for him to continue what he started last year.”

Dentist puts Weeks in lead-off spot

By Bob Dutton

Mariners 4, Athletics 0

PEORIA, Ariz. — So why was Rickie Weeks batting leadoff for the Seattle Mariners in Wednesday’s game against Oakland at Peoria Stadium?

Is manager Lloyd McClendon experimenting with a new-look lineup?

No. “He’s got a 4:30 dentist appointment,” McClendon explained. “He needs to get three at-bats pretty quickly.

Really, that’s the only reason he’s up there.”

McClendon said Austin Jackson will remain the club’s leadoff hitter.

Weeks got his three at-bats in.

He had a single, a strikeout and a hard liner to third before leaving the game.

Herald Writer

It’s a dead heat in the U.S. Division heading into the final weekend of the WHL’s regular season.

The Everett Silvertips and Portland Winterhawks are all tied up after the Winterhawks defeated the Spokane Chiefs 7-4 Wednesday night.

The facts LENNY IGNELZI / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Mariners pitcher Felix Hernandez watches Wednesday’s game against the Oakland A’s in Peoria, Ariz. lems following his three-inning performance Tuesday in a simulated game.

Paxton has been slowed by a sore forearm, which he suffered when he stumbled while performing an agility drill prior to the start of camp. He vowed Tuesday to be ready for full duty by the start of the regular season.

McClendon said right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma would likely shift Sunday to a simulated game to ac-

commodate Paxton. Iwakuma pitched four scoreless innings Tuesday in a 5-5 tie against the Chicago White Sox.

Cy Young odds Mariners ace Felix Hernandez is a 13:5 favorite to win the American League Cy Young Award in the latest odds from Bovada.lv, the online gaming site.

Hernandez lost out last year by a narrow margin to Cleveland’s Corey

Kluber, who is a 4:1 pick to repeat.

Chicago lefty Chris Sale ranks third as a 5:1 pick.

Mariners second baseman Robinson Cano draws 7:1 odds to be the AL’s Most Valuable Player.

Los Angeles outfielder Mike Trout is even money at 1:1 to repeat, while Chicago first baseman Jose Abreu is a 4:1 pick. Cano is tied for third with Detroit first baseman Miguel Cabrera at 7:1.

Everett, trying to win its first U.S. Division title since 2007, went into the final week of the season leading Portland by two points for first place in the division. The Winterhawks, however, had a game in hand, which was played Wednesday in Spokane.

Spokane beat Portland at home 5-3 last Friday, but the Winterhawks got their revenge

Wednesday. Defenseman Adam Henry scored a hat trick as Portland led from start to finish.

Portland’s victory put the Winterhawks even on points with Everett with 90. Both teams play three games this weekend. Everett has a home-and-home with Victoria on Friday and Saturday, with Saturday’s game at Xfinity Arena, then finishes off the season at

Spokane on Sunday. Portland is at Tri-City on Friday, at Seattle on Saturday and finishes up with a home game against Tri-City on Sunday. Portland is 8-0 against Tri-City so far this season.

Portland, which is seeking its fourth division title in the past five seasons, currently holds the tiebreaker by virtue of having one more win.

Cowboys agree to 1-year deal with DE Hardy Associated Press IRVING, Texas — The Dallas Cowboys made their big play in free agency with defensive end Greg Hardy. Now they wait to see how soon the former Carolina player will boost their mediocre pass rush.

With Hardy facing a league suspension for violating the NFL’s domestic conduct policy, the team signed him Wednesday to a one-year deal valued at up to $13.1 million if he meets incentives. A person with knowledge of the contract provided details on condition of anonymity because terms were not announced.

Hardy played just one game last season because he was

placed on the commissioner’s exempt list after a judge in North Carolina convicted him on domestic violence charges.

The case was thrown out on appeal when Hardy’s accuser couldn’t be located to testify, and the NFL filed a lawsuit Wednesday seeking evidence from the trial. League spokesman Greg Aiello said Hardy’s status was still “being reviewed for potential discipline.”

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said the contract was “heavily weighted toward his participation in games” after the team spent weeks researching Hardy’s background.

“Obviously a great deal of our study was dedicated to the issue of domestic violence, and

the recent events that associated Greg with that issue,” Jones said. “Our organization understands the very serious nature of domestic violence in our society and in our league. We know that Greg has a firm understanding of those issues as well.”

The league is seeking evidence from Hardy’s case through North Carolina’s open records laws after prosecutors refused to release anything. His ex-girlfriend testified that Hardy threw her in a bathroom and onto a futon filled with guns and threatened to kill her.

Hardy denied the allegations in his testimony, and prosecutors say he reached a civil suit agreement with the accuser.

Without evidence from the

trial, it could be difficult for the NFL to enforce a tougher personal-conduct policy approved by owners after Hardy’s conviction. First-time violations involving assault, sexual assault and domestic violence can result in six-game suspensions.

Previously, first-time offenders typically received two-game bans.

The 26-year-old Hardy tied a Carolina club record with 15 sacks in 2013, and made $13.1 million on the franchise tag last season despite playing just one game.

He tweeted a picture of the Dallas skyline Wednesday and wrote, “My new city baby ... can’t wait to show out for my old and new fans.”

Lillibridge to coach at Marysville baseball clinic

MARYSVILLE — Two former professional players will help coach a free baseball clinic for kids ages 6-13 at noon Sunday at Cedarcrest Middle School.

In past years, there has been a fee for the Marysville Baseball Association skills camp — but not this year.

Wednesday’s game

The News Tribune

Lefty J.A. Happ shifted to a simulated game against minor-leaguers to avoid facing Oakland because he lines up to face the Athletics in his first regular-season start.

Happ gave up three runs and eight hits in four innings. He struck out five, walked one and threw 46 of 76 pitches for strikes.

Erasmo Ramirez started in Happ’s place against Oakland.

Previous camps have been used as community fund-raising events. Last year’s camp raised $3,800 for the Oso Relief Fund.

Players in the fifth annual event will participate in drills including fielding, hitting, catching, pitching, base running, and speed and agility. The camp will be instructed by coaches and players from the 13-U, 14-U, 16-U and 18-U teams.

The coaches with pro experience include Brent Lillibridge, who played at Jackson High School in Mill Creek and then at the University of Washington. He also played infield in the

major leagues for six teams from 2008-13. His best year was with the Chicago White Sox in 2011, when he hit .258.

Rick Smith, the city’s police chief, played three years in the Montreal Expos and California Angels organizations.

The camp is mandatory for Hawks Select players to participate in to teach them the value of giving back.

“A prominent philosophy within our organization is we believe in the importance of community, and it is our intent to mentor our players towards that philosophy,” MBA Vice

President Jason Hauck said.

“Our players know they are very fortunate to participate in a highly organized and competitive baseball program, and we want them to learn to share what they have with others who may be less fortunate.”

One of the Hawks Select players, TJ Lamoureux, said he enjoys the camp.

“It’s a blast teaching younger kids to play baseball. The camp is a really fun day for me,” he said.

Participants get a free T-shirt and a barbecue lunch. The school is located at 6400 88th St. in Marysville.

said, “and I think it’s safe to say they nailed Charlie and I for those two spots.”

Furbush and Wilhelmsen push one another to ever greater heights with a series of chest bumps, air-guitar solos and the like.

“We were there for so long,” Furbush said. “I don’t know if he went first or I went first. It was more like we’re just going to go with this and see what happens at the end of it all.”

The contrast to Seager’s

straight-arrow approach is ...

(OK, what’s another word for epic?)

“They made it easy for me,” Seager said. “They bring so much energy and so much personality to it that I just have to be there. I can be low-key and awkward in front of the camera, and it works.”

Does it ever.

The song is infectious and sure to be a summer-long staple at Safeco Field. And Wilhelmsen and Furbush generated so

much footage for the film crew that the Mariners put together a music video in addition to the commercial.

“We had a blast,” Wilhelmsen said. “We didn’t want to go.

We wanted more. We wanted to keep going. We wanted to hear another song.

“I’m really grateful to the Mariners. They’ve given me the opportunity to be a big-league pitcher and now a rock star. Two dreams that every kids wants to be.”

The Mariners, in perhaps their cleanest outing of the spring, broke open a close game Wednesday by scoring three times in the eighth inning on singles by James Jones, Stefen Romero and Pat Kivlehan.

Erasmo Ramirez, Jordan Pries, Tyler Olson and Carson Smith combined on a three-hit shutout that took just 2 hours, 25 minutes in front of 9,903 at Peoria Stadium.

The Mariners evened their record at 7-7-1.

Play of the game

Shortstop Brad Miller snagged Marcus Semien’s two-out liner in the first inning and turned it into a double play when Craig Gentry broke from third for home.

“I told Brad (earlier) today that he’s been playing winning baseball in a lot of different ways,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “The play (Tuesday) when he backed up third, a play where he backs up second base and threw a guy out at second.

“That play today ... he’s playing very instinctive baseball.”

Plus

Kyle Seager grounded into an inning-ending double play with the bases loaded in the first inning but ripped a two-out double off the rightfield wall in the fourth. He scored the game’s first run when Justin Ruggiano followed with an RBI single. … Jordan Pries pitched around two-out doubles in the fifth and sixth innings. … Willie Bloomquist keyed the three-run eighth by punching a single through a vacated right side that put runners at first and third with no outs.

Minus

The Mariners led just 1-0 in the seventh when Carlos Rivero, who replaced Kyle Seager as a pinch-runner, got picked off second base by A’s pitcher Chris Bassitt. Logan Morrison then lined a two-out double into the right-center gap.

Job battles

Olson worked another one-twothree inning in his bid to win a bullpen job. He has faced the minimum 21 batters in seven innings. He has allowed one single, but he erased that blemish by getting a double-play grounder. …

Smith aided his push for a bullpen job in a competitive right-hander field by breezing through a one-two-three ninth on just seven pitches.

Quotable

“This a good look here?” reliever Tom Wilhelmsen asked as he stood in office of equipment manager Ryan Stiles covered only by a towel and wearing shower shoes as icing from Fernando Rodney’s birthday cake coated his mustache. (Whatever mental image you have is too flattering.) Rodney is 38.

Extra innings

It’s hard to see how Ramirez fits on this club, but he limited the Athletics to one hit in four shutout innings. He threw 34 of 48 pitches for strikes.

“Wait for news,” Ramirez said.

“That’s what you do in spring training.

Just wait for news. You’re waiting. I’m waiting, too.

“It’s hard because we’ve got (Roenis) Elias, we’ve got (Taijuan) Walker, we’ve got Pries. They’re good arms. They throw strikes, and they’re smart. It’s good competition. So you just have to wait.”

Up next

The Mariners play the first of four spring night games when they play Cleveland at 7:05 p.m. at Peoria Stadium.

Walker makes his fourth spring start in his bid to secure the final spot in the rotation.

He has yet to allow a run in eight previous innings.The Indians list right-hander Carlos Carrasco as their starter.

“Wall Street Analysts Praise New Breakthrough”

New Fat-Melting Pill

Could Put Diet Industry Out of Business by 2016 Special Report by Health & Fitness Editor Steve Engerson NEW YORK — You know what they say; if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! That is, until recently when a small Colorado nutraceutical company developed the unbelievable… a new pill, that lets you drop dramatic amounts of weight — apparently without much effort at all!

• Fool your body into burning carbs as energy – NOT storing them as fat • Fool your body into BURNING Stored FAT through Thermogenesis and lipolysis • Fool your body into feeling full – the ultimate appetite suppressant • Enable your body to PRESERVE Lean, Healthy MUSCLE

Meet the Pill that Disintegrates Fat Cells …While You Sit Still.

• Increase energy and mental clarity almost immediately – guaranteed

Shred360™ originally shook up the fitness industry because of the way it DOUBLES your fat-burning potential and made fitness models “camera ready” in dramatically less time.

And unlike highly ineffective, slickly marketed “diet supplements” (that are usually glorified caffeine pills) – Shred360™ (originally formulated for top athletes) will:

Shred360™ allows ANYONE, not just fitness professionals, to LOSE INTENSE AMOUNTS OF FAT — without grueling workouts or tasteless diet foods. It works by first breaking apart, then disintegrating your stubborn fat cells – so you drop pounds and inches even while you SLEEP! And best of all, Shred360™ was just released to the general public. That means you can experience unprecedented weight loss too.

• NEVER make you jittery

Two Servings Replace Hours of Grueling Workouts.

ACCELERATE the Speed of Your Metabolism by up to an Astounding 43%!

By creating a “Sedentary Cellular Workout” (nearly doubling the speed of your metabolism) Shred360™’s formula actually fools your body into thinking that you are lifting weights and running hard… increasing your metabolic rate by 43% and BURNING FAT FAST...

• NEVER make your heart race • NEVER leave you feeling hungry Shred360™’s formula includes well documented Green Tea, Vitamins B6 & B12, Green Coffee and Raspberry Ketones, among others. Together, they are unconditionally guaranteed to make every surplus bit of your unwanted fat disappear - effortlessly - without starvation diets and painful exercise… while at the same time preserving the lean healthy muscle that your body needs.

Fitness Professionals Praise The Fat Burning Power of Shred360™ “Shred360™ Is the Best of the Best. In all my years of being a Fitness Professional, I’ve never recommended a fatburner because almost all fat burners fall short… but I was so impressed

THE SHRED360™ EFFECT: DESTROYS AND ELIMINATES FAT CELLS

First Period—None.

Second Period—None.

SIXTEEN Highly Refined Ingredients Vaporize Fat Without Effort Unlike Anything Ever Released!

Shred360™ is VERY Different from anything you’ve seen. Its proprietary blend of SIXTEEN potent ingredients, are Scientifically PROVEN to: • Evaporate Fat by Speeding Your Metabolism by an Astonishing 43%

with the science, the ingredients, AND the personal results of this product - I contacted the company directly to share my excitement.” Shaun Hadsall – Fitness Trainer, creator of the “4-Cycle Fat Loss” system

Analysts Think Shred360™ Could put Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers Out of Business by 2018 Analysts (who have studied Shred360™’s ability to isolate, breakup

and eliminate fat from the body) predict traditional weight loss companies will be obsolete in the next 4-years.

Let’s be honest. For most of us, the absolute ease of losing fat with Shred360™ is much more important than the science of “how it works”. As one Wall Street Investor put it, “By using Shred360™ - you can eat like a normal person, skip the gym, and lose the fat you want while you sleep – so who in their right mind would ever use a company like Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers? The answer, clearly, is no one.”

No more tasteless “diet frozen meals”, no more prepackaged “food”, no more time consuming trips to the gym, and no more clubs to join - PLUS Shred360™ nearly doubles your metabolism and burns fat while you SLEEP – making it the most important breakthrough in weight loss history… and that has mainstream companies worried…

Produced Under Highly Controlled Environmental Conditions In Small Batches, So Supplies Are Very Limited Shred360™ was originally developed for Top Fitness Professionals (a very small market) and was never meant to be the all-around fat burner that it, thankfully, turned out to be. Because of this, Shred360™ is produced under highly controlled conditions, in one of America’s Top Certified Supplement manufacturing facilities, in very small batches… making supplies quite limited. This production method guarantees that Shred360™ is always pure, always safe, and always effective. Shred360™ truly is a “Professional Grade” supplement.

Special Opportunity for Our Readers – Small Sample of Shred360™ Made Available with No-Questions-Asked 365-Day Guarantee!

As the Health and Fitness Editor, I am happy to say that I have been able to reserve a limited supply of GUARANTEED TO WORK Shred360™ - for 100 of our readers (I wish it could have been more – but their supplies are very limited). All you have to do is call them directly at 1-800-211-0741 and request your limited supply plus additional FREE bottles (just ask).

You will see – stubborn unwanted fat will be eliminated from your body with absolute ease.

But please don’t wait to call… once these free samples are gone – they are gone for good.

SOTHEBY’S REALOGICS

Tranquility at Dogwood Bluff comes wth five bedrooms, six-plus bathrooms and Brazilian cherry hardwood floors

Upscale homes cost a pretty penny The most expensive houses sold in the county last year boast a range of fancy features

By Jim Davis Herald Business Journal

Yes, the house has five bedrooms, six-plus bathrooms, the chef’s kitchen and the Brazilian cherry hardwood floors.

What makes it the most expensive home sold last year in Snohomish County are some of the most fantastic views of the Puget Sound and Olympic Mountains around.

“The house itself is breathtaking,” said Chris Doucet, the listing agent for the Woodway home. “Then you go outside and you see the view.

And the view is expensive.”

The property with 2 acres in

the 22000 block of Dogwood Lane comes with sights of blue water and sky that go on for miles. A rooftop deck and two fire pits allow the new owners — a local buyer purchased the home in August — to sit back and enjoy the horizon with the occasional ferry making its way across the water.

“There is a sense of relaxation when you’re surrounded by this kind of view and this amount of greenery,” said Doucet, who works for Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty in Seattle.

“It’s almost like you decompress when you’re surrounded by this wonder.”

The 7,600-square-foot house sold for $2.93 million. That makes it the most expensive home sold last year in the county by any real estate agent affiliated with the Northwest Multiple Listing Service.

Tranquility on Dogwood Bluff — Realogics Sotheby’s names all of its homes — enjoys the perks the ultra-wealthy would expect from any home: Vaulted ceilings, a gated driveway, two master suites and a guest wing.

“The closets were huge,” Doucet said. “The master closet looked like it was a retail store.”

The top five most expensive homes sold were all in south

for the most expensive home sold in the Everett, Mukilteo and Mill Creek areas last year.

The 4,753 square-foot house is one of the seven homes of Fairway Fountains, a gated private development along the Mill Creek Country Club.

It sold for $1.453 million last year, according to the Northwest Multiple Listing Service.

It sits along the first fairway of the country club’s golf course on a private street made of cobblestone bricks. The house, built in 2005, includes four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, a den, the theater with a state-of-the-art media system, a loft library, two bonus rooms with a four-car garage wired with audio and video.

Snohomish County. The fifth most expensive home sold was a condo in Edmonds. Beautiful homes were sold throughout the county, custom-built homes with novel features and posh amenities. Here’s a look at the most expensive homes sold in each of the Northwest Multiple Listing area zones, which divide the county geographically.

Central-west Snohomish County The home theater comes complete with a light-up marquee to announce the evening’s showing or maybe just to send a personalized birthday message.

That was one of the many features

Beware of forgeries when buying glassblown works D

JAMES JULIA

This caged glass and iron vase is 93⁄4 inches high and is clearly marked by Majorelle and Daum. It sold for $1,244.

aum, Lalique, Majorelle, Delatte, A. Walter, and Schneider are some of the famous glass makers working in Nancy, France, in the late 19th and 20th centuries. A few still are creating quality glass vases and sculptures.

Many of the makers used their names and the word “Nancy” in their marks. Daum and Majorelle worked together to make an early 20th-century type of vase that is easy to recognize and known as “caged.”

Louis Majorelle was a famous furniture designer and decorator. He made many types of metal railings, hardware and exterior trim. He made decorative iron

frames that were used by Daum.

Mottled glass was blown into the empty spaces in the frame so that the glass was slightly raised between the metal parts. The finished piece looked like the glass was trapped in a cage.

A purple and pink Art Deco caged vase was auctioned in November 2014 by James Julia for $1,244. It was signed “Majorelle Daum Nancy” with the Cross of Lorraine. Look for names with the word Nancy on Art Nouveau and Art Deco glass, especially on large vases. But beware — there have been many fakes and copies made since the 1960s. Some even say “Galli” hoping you will misread the mark.

Q: I bought a home with a large complete liquid 1920s soda fountain, dispensers, stools and the rest. I’m looking to remove it and sell it, but I’m having trouble finding what a complete setup with seven seats is worth. It’s made by Liquid.

A: Soda fountains were in almost every corner drugstore from the early 1900s to the late 1950s, but it’s unusual to find one in a home. Soda fountains are sold at auctions, usually sales of advertising. You can contact an auction house. If it is an original old soda fountain, they will sell it for you and even arrange to get it to their auction site. Your Liquid fountain was made by

The company made liquefied carbon dioxide. It test marketed its first soda fountain in 1903 and sold its first “iceless” soda fountain in 1906. The company name became Liquid Carbonic Corporation in 1926, so your fountain was made between 1906 and 1926. The company merged with General Dynamics in 1958.

Home and garden show planned Saturday Herald staff CAMANO ISLAND — It’s a small show, but the Port Susan Home and Garden event is especially designed for the locals.

The free show, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Camano Center, 606 Arrowhead Road, on the island, is hosted by the Camano Chamber of Commerce.

The idea is that the Port Susan show will inspire

and provide information about home and garden ideas for an island environment.

Along with displays by vendors and local service business owners, the show has four speakers scheduled ■ 10:30 a.m.: Tamara Drake speaks about recycling stuff that generally isn’t easy to recycle. More information is available at www.RecycleForaGood Cause.wordpress.com.

■ 11:30 a.m.: Don Evans, executive administrator of Washington 811, has a topic of “Call Before You Dig” and will talk about making sure people don’t dig in the wrong spots, causing themselves injury or disrupting utilities.

■ 12:30 p.m.: Tyler Heagle, a native of Camano Island and certified home energy auditor for Washington Energy Services, plans to talk about home energy audits and how science

can help people lower their energy costs.

■ 2 p.m.: The funny Ciscoe Morris plans to hand out garden advice and offer ideas for must-have spring plants. Morris has a weekly radio show, “Gardening with Ciscoe,” on 97.3 FM Kiro radio. He also appears on King-TV with Meeghan Black.

More information about the home and garden show is at portsusanhomeand garden.com.

Flower power Gardeners look forward to annual plant sales by garden clubs and other community groups. The Herald will run a list April 23 on the Home & Garden page, a few weeks before the Mother’s Day rush.

Email us information about your plant sale. The listings are free.

Give us the scoop using this simple format: Your Club Name. Times, dates. Place, including address. What you’re selling — feel free to add a sentence or two. A phone number, email and website for publication. Please use this condensed format instead of a news release.

Send the information to abrown@heraldnet.com. The deadline is April 12. Earlier is better. If you have questions, please call Andrea Brown at 425-339-3443.

1. For safety’s sake, change the locks on all exterior doors to ensure that the only people who have keys are those you have given to them personally. You should also draw up an evacuation plan and ensure there are enough smoke detectors and fire extinguishers in the house.

2. Entrust any renovations and repairs to true professionals to ensure the job is done well. If you have several similar jobs to be done (plumbing or electricity, for example), have them all done at the same time. Shop around for several quotes to keep costs to a minimum.

Tips for maintaining a (man’s) turf F

or the most part the lawn is a man’s domain.

It is literally his “turf,” and when left alone he can spend endless hours mowing, edging, aerating, dethatching, feeding, reseeding, watering and weeding. Not to mention the time it takes to keep his trusty John Deere steed in good running condition.

If this man is also a golfer then his passion for his lawn is even more intense.

Two decks adorn the home, a smaller coffee deck built to get sunlight in the morning and a second one to get sunlight in the afternoon.

pesticides, homeowners (mostly men) spend countless hours and dollars maintaining their pride and joy. Depending on how the turf is maintained this can either be an ecological disaster or a valuable bio-filter and climate moderator. Here are some thoughts to consider: A healthy lawn starts with good soil preparation.

This seems obvious but the reality is that contractors leave homeowners with an abysmal mess when it comes to soil.

Three inches of topsoil on top of a compacted base causes lawns to have shallow root systems, which in turn increases the need to

STEVE SMITH THE WHISTLING GARDENER thank for the evolution of the modern day lawn. Originally reserved for the aristocracy, lawns slowly trickled down to the working class. In the United States, after World War II, they became synonymous with suburbia.

With the advent of the modern-day mower, synthetic fertilizers and

irrigate and also encourages disease. This leaves the lawn usually saturated and squishy all winter.

If there was only one thing a homeowner could afford to do in the garden it would be to rip out the lawn and build up the soil so there are 6 to 12 inches of good friable soil. While this might seem expensive at first in the long run the upkeep will prove to be much easier and less costly.

The second thing I would recommend would be to kick the synthetic fertilizer habit and adopt an organic lawn food. Again, this might cause sticker shock at first but as the organic fertilizers build up a residual of

nitrogen in the soil less and less will be needed.

A synthetic fertilizer typically needs to be applied four to six times a year.

With organics, once you are on a program, twice a year is usually adequate.

And as a bonus the organic fertilizers also encourage healthy soil microorganisms, which in turn result in deeper root systems.

Thirdly, I would avoid all weed and feed products like the plague. It’s fine to spot spray an occasional weed but to apply an herbicide over the entire lawn is shear lunacy (and costly).

Finally, I would mow my lawn around 2- to 3-inches tall year-round and only

We old guys don’t like to worry our children with all the details about getting old, and besides, it is embarrassing. Travel becomes more difficult as the years go by, and certain specific problems require a lot of logistical considerations ... like easy and frequent use of bathroom facilities.

How do you get along with people at a cocktail party or business function? You engage them in conversation. You ask them questions about themselves. You tell them about yourself.

— Mike On discomfort with people who use Facebook to deal with a death: When my mom passed in July, I posted the news — and the info regarding the wake — on her Facebook wall. I did not know all of her friends and former co-workers’ contact info, and this was the best way to share the info.

The number of folks who came to remember Mom was astounding. I definitely underestimated the turnout. People called people who called people. Folks who knew her 20-plus years ago showed up. It was fantastic and a wonderful celebration of her life.

Anyway, my point is that you may not want to delete that social media account immediately after things happen. It turns into a place for folks to post memories and condolences, and it provides that place for folks who cannot attend any memorial services to be involved.

The price paid is that I didn’t receive many cards and no one sent flowers, but being able to look back on her wall and see what people wrote is actually more touching for me. And it’s not just for me, but for all those who knew and loved her.

Man wants to keep family at arm’s length Dear Abby: I am the youngest of three boys.

When I was growing up, my brothers didn’t have much to do with me. At times they were cruel, mocked my interests and made fun of my friends. At 19 I moved into the dorms, even though I was attending college locally.

My professional life took me away from my hometown for 25 years.

Both brothers pretty much ignored me, except for calls on my birthday that were filled with awkward silence because we didn’t know each other well enough to talk about anything. I lived abroad for long periods, and even though I sent emails and postcards, I never heard anything from them in reply.

Now I live back in my hometown and I am expected to participate in holiday and family events because “it’s family.” Please give me the words to use to refuse invitations I do not want, from a family who made it clear that they had no use for me for so long.

— Wary In Wisconsin Dear Wary: Give the following standard refusal: “Thank you for wanting to include me, but I already have other plans.” I do, however, suggest you choose ONE holiday a year to spend with your “family” as a way of maintaining minimal contact.

Dear Abby: Three widowed friends of mine still have their late husbands’ voices on their answering machines. I think it’s spooky and in really bad taste. Is there any way to gently suggest to them that they change their greeting to one in their own voices or an anonymous one?

This information will be used to improve services to caregivers and the people they support.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday, March 19, the 78th day of 2015. There are 287 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight: On March 19, 1945, during World War II, 724 people were killed when a Japanese dive bomber attacked the carrier USS Franklin off Japan; the ship, however, was saved.

Adolf Hitler ordered the destruction of German facilities that could fall into Allied hands in his so-called “Nero Decree,” which was largely disregarded.

On this date: In 1687, French explorer Rene-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle — the first European to navigate the length of the Mississippi River — was murdered by mutineers in present-day Texas.

In 1863, the Confederate cruiser Georgiana, on its maiden voyage, was scuttled off Charleston, South Carolina, to prevent it from falling into Union hands.

In 1918, Congress approved daylight saving time.

In 1920, the Senate rejected, for a second

time, the Treaty of Versailles by a vote of 49 in favor, 35 against, falling short of the two-thirds majority needed for approval.

In 1955, the inner-city school drama “Blackboard Jungle,” starring Glenn Ford, was released

by MGM. In 1965, the wreck of the Confederate cruiser Georgiana was discovered by E. Lee Spence, 102 years to the day after it had been scuttled.

In 1976, Buckingham Palace announced the separation of Princess Margaret and her husband, the Earl of Snowdon, after 16 years of marriage.

In 1979, the U.S. House of Representatives began televising its floor proceedings; the live feed was carried by C-SPAN (Cable-Satellite Public Affairs Network), which was making its debut.

In 1987, televangelist Jim Bakker resigned as chairman of his PTL ministry organization amid a sex and money scandal involving Jessica Hahn, a former church secretary.

Associated Press

Lincoln assassination artifacts reunited Associated Press WASHINGTON — Beyond his famous words, the tangible artifacts President Abraham Lincoln left behind after his assassination were scattered for decades, kept in family collections and by the government and museums from Washington to Chicago.

Now for the first time since April 1865, curators have brought together most of the artifacts from the night the 16th president was shot at Ford’s Theatre just blocks from the White House. A new exhibition, “Silent Witnesses: Artifacts of the Lincoln Assassination,” running from March 23 to May 25 at the theater’s campus will give an unprecedented look at Lincoln’s death 150 years later.

The tiny Derringer pistol that delivered the fatal wound, a blood-stained flag and garments used to cradle Lincoln’s head and his coat and top hat offer an intimate look at a moment that changed history, said Ford’s Theatre curator Tracey Avant.

“There were real people behind these artifacts,” she said. “We’ll never know what would have happened if he hadn’t been assassinated, but we know the impact he has left even with his live being cut short.”

Curators present the history in four acts to show how Lincoln’s final night transpired.

Act 1: A Night Out Starting five blocks away from the theater at the National Museum of American History, visitors can see the black carriage that brought the president and Mary Todd Lincoln to Ford’s Theatre along with a young couple as their guests, Major Henry Rathbone and his fiancée Clara Harris. In those days, presidents provided their own transportation, and this was one of the Lincolns’ three carriages.

A playbill would have greeted the Lincoln party when they arrived, announcing the final night of the comedy “Our American Cousin.”

A large photo depicting President Abraham Lincoln and first lady Mary Lincoln is displayed at a new exhibit entitled “Silent Witnesses: Artifacts of the Lincoln Assassination” at the Ford’s Center for Education and Leadership in Washington.

Orchestra seats were $1, while private box seats sold for $6 and $10.

Act 2: The President’s Arrival The Lincolns arrived late to Ford’s Theatre, and the performance had already begun. Actress and theater manager Laura Keene saw the first family and stopped the show, and the orchestra played “Hail to the Chief,” drawing cheers and applause.

A rarely seen violin and drum sticks from the theater’s musicians now recall that moment. Theater goers later said that Lincoln looked happier than he had looked in years.

Lincoln and his guests took their box seats, and the show resumed.

Act 3: The President is Shot Not long after the start of Act 3, a well-known actor named John Wilkes Booth slipped into the presidential box. He carried a small Deringer pistol and fired at Lincoln’s head from just inches away.

When Rathbone tried to stop him, Booth slashed at the young Union officer with a large knife and jumped down to the stage before escaping.

A young doctor rushed to Lincoln’s aid, and Keene, the lead actress, brought water. Keene kept bloodstained fragments from her dress from when she cradled the president’s head in her lap. An American flag decorating the presidential box also was folded and used as a pillow for Lincoln’s head.

An Associated Press correspondent at the time, Lawrence Gobright, recovered the pistol in the theater box and turned it over to police.

Act 4: The Vigil The wounded president was taken across the street to Petersen House as doctors tried to save his life. Outside, the public gathered for an all-night vigil until Lincoln’s death at 7:22 a.m. on April 15, 1865. For the first time since that night, Lincoln’s bloodstained Brooks Brothers Great Coat is being reunited with Mary Todd Lincoln’s black velvet cloak that she wore by his side. Also on display are Lincoln’s top hat and the contents of his pockets: two pairs of glasses, cufflinks, pocket knife, leather wallet and a $5 Confederate note, perhaps from his recent trip to Richmond, Virginia.
