COURTROOM SKETCH BY LOIS SILVER

Raymond Lee Fryberg Jr. appears before U.S. Magistrate Judge Brian Tsuchida in U.S. District Court on Wednesday in Seattle.

Shooter’s father arrested

He is accused of illegally buying gun used at MPHS

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

TULALIP — The father of a teen who killed four students at Marysville Pilchuck High School was arrested Tuesday on federal charges that he illegally purchased the firearm used in the shootings.

Raymond Lee Fryberg Jr., 42, allegedly bought the firearm in 2013, according to a criminal complaint.

Fryberg unlawfully owned the Beretta PX4 Storm handgun because there is a permanent order banning him from possessing firearms, the Justice Department alleged.

On Oct. 24, his son, 15-year-old Jaylen Fryberg, used the Beretta to kill four other students and himself

in a Marysville Pilchuck High School cafeteria. Killed were Andrew Fryberg, 15, and Zoe Galasso, Shaylee Chuckulnaskit and Gia Soriano, all 14.

Nate Hatch, 14, was critically wounded but survived.

The Justice Department alleges that Fryberg lied on forms when he bought the gun, saying that he was not subject to a protection order.

“In fact, just four months earlier, Fryberg admitted in tribal court that he had violated the protective order and thus he knew that he was subject to its terms,” U.S. attorneys allege.

When local authorities investigated the shootings, “investigators went to Fryberg’s residence and received consent to search Jaylen Fryberg’s room,” the Justice

Department complaint says.

“In the room the investigators saw a large gun safe which was locked. Investigators did not know at that time that (Raymond L. Fryberg Jr.) was a prohibited person with an order of protection against him and therefore, did not look inside the locked gun safe.”

Fryberg made a brief appearance before U.S. Magistrate Judge Brian Tsuchida in U.S. District Court in Seattle on Tuesday afternoon. He is charged through a criminal complaint filed Monday. The judge explained that a grand jury has not yet convened.

“In order for a case to proceed to trial, a grand jury

OLYMPIA — Senate Republicans proposed a no-new-taxes budget Tuesday that pours billions of more dollars into public schools to meet a demand by the state Supreme Court — but not voters.

GOP leaders said their budget meets the needs of the state and residents in the next twoyear budget cycle. And because it doesn’t raise taxes, as House Democrats propose, the Senate plan is a blueprint for ensuring the Legislature can adjourn on time, Republicans said.

“I think the budget we rolled out here is one that everyone can vote for,” said state Sen. Andy Hill, R-Redmond, the chamber’s chief budget writer. “Our only goal was to provide the services that matter, what people expect and deserve from state government, without calling on families and businesses to send us more money.”

The Senate Republicans’ plan calls for $37.8 billion in spending in the next biennium, with the single largest of new spending going to education.

Republicans are earmarking $1.3 billion to comply with a state Supreme Court order to fund the full cost of basic education in public schools. Those dollars will pay for materials and supplies, provide all-day kindergarten statewide and reduce the size of classes in kindergarten through third grade.

But the Senate budget, like the one House Democrats released last week, doesn’t pay for smaller class sizes in other grades, as required by Initiative 1351, approved by voters in November.

Rather, Republican senators want to put the measure back on the ballot in hopes voters will support smaller classes in the lower grades only.

House Democrats have proposed to spend $38.8 billion in the next budget and want to pay for some it with revenue from a new capital gains tax and an increase in a business tax levied

Network: ‘Unfair’ to judge Noah the buzz Associated Press NEW YORK — Trevor Noah, the newly announced host of “The Daily Show,” rejected the backlash over his graphic tweets targeting Jews and women as an unfair reflection of him and his comedy.

“To reduce my views to a handful of jokes that didn’t land is not a true reflection of my character, nor my evolution as a comedian,” Noah posted Tuesday on his Twitter account, the same one that included past tweets

others deemed offensive.

Comedy Central also came to his defense, calling Noah a “provocative” comedian who “spares no one, himself Trevor Noah included.”

“To judge him or his comedy based on a handful of jokes is unfair,” the network said in a statement, adding that he has “a bright future at Comedy Central.”

Noah was announced as Jon Stewart’s successor Monday. The next day, he was a trending topic on Twitter as he drew fire for jokes described as tasteless, hateful — and unfunny.

Roseanne Barr was among those calling out the 31-year-old South African comic, who has an international following and 2 million Twitter followers.

“U should cease sexist & anti semitic ‘humor’ about jewish women & Israel,” she tweeted late Monday.

Noah’s controversial

tweets were posted between 2009 and 2014.

In 2009 he wrote: “Almost bumped a Jewish kid crossing the road. He didn’t look b4 crossing but I still would hav felt so bad in my german car!”

A 2012 post derides “jewish chicks.” Another one from 2011 jokes about “a hot white woman.”

In a post from 2011, he writes: “Oh yeah the weekend. People are gonna get drunk & think that I’m sexy!” He attributes the joke to “fat chicks everywhere.”

3D technology gives girl new hand

By John Rogers Associated Press

LOS ALAMITOS, Calif.

— Seven-year-old Faith Lennox never thought much about putting a prosthetic limb where her missing left hand had once been.

Not until the little girl learned she could design her own, strap it on easily and then jump on her bike and pedal away at speeds previously only imaged.

With family members occasionally shouting “Be careful” and “Watch out for that car,” Faith firmly placed her new hand’s bright blue and pink fingers on her bike’s left handlebar and took off for a seemingly endless sojourn around the Build It Workspace on Tuesday morning. Inside, just a short time before, that hand had rolled off a 3D printer that built it overnight.

“I don’t think we’ll ever get her off it,” said her

Instead, as she happily demonstrated over and over after the bike ride, she moves her upper arm back and forth.

Medieval text reveals weapon against a modern superbug

By Melissa Healy Los Angeles Times

At the University of Nottingham in Britain, researchers have rediscovered an ancient medicinal elixir that appears to fight a very modern scourge: a deadly drug-resistant bacterial infection rampant in hospitals.

The discovery melds medieval potion-making with modern pharmacology. In its crosshairs: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, better known as MRSA. Let’s imagine that during a nighttime escape through Sherwood Forest, an early archetype for the legendary figure Robin Hood scratched his cornea on a branch and developed an eye infection. In nearby Nottingham, he might well have consulted an herbalist, who would fetch a brass vessel, brew a remedy of bile from a cow’s stomach and Allium — a plant from the garlic family — and create an unguent to treat the patient’s inflamed eye.

Until recently, the recipe for that medieval remedy lay unnoticed in the brittle pages of a 1,000-year-old text — titled “Bald’s Leechbook” — shelved in the library of the University of Nottingham’s Institute for Medieval Research.

Leafing through that folio, Viking studies professor Christina Lee wondered what its ancient recipes revealed about the state of medieval medical knowledge, and whether and how, a millennium before the germ theory of disease was understood, healers and herbalists had guessed right in choosing their treatments.

Lee translated the recipe for the eye salve from the original Old English recipe in “Bald’s Leechbook,”

and enlisted chemists at her university’s Center for Biomolecular Sciences to re-create the unguent and test its effect.

Lee’s request came at a crucial time. With a paucity of new antimicrobial medications in the development pipeline, Nottingham microbiologist Freya Harrison was looking for inspiration. Lee’s idea might allow her team to reach deep into the past in search of undiscovered or underappreciated antimicrobial agents.

Scientists in Harrison’s lab followed the recipe precisely, making four separate batches with fresh ingredients each time.

They also devised a control treatment using the same quantity of distilled water and brass sheet to mimic the brewing container, but leaving the vegetable compounds out.

In lab conditions that set off riotous growth of the Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, the 1,000-yearold recipe had a powerful killing effect: roughly 1 in 1,000 bacterial cells growing in plugs of collagen survived when doused with the ancient salve.

Later, in infected wounds induced in mice, the remedy killed 90 percent of MRSA bacteria.

Harrison said she was “absolutely blown away” with the antique recipe’s effects. She had assumed it might show “a small amount of antibiotic activity.” Researchers have found some of its elements — copper and bile salts in particular — to have some effect on bacteria in the lab. And plants in the garlic family are known to make chemicals that interfere with bacteria’s ability to damage infected tissues.

But compared with the

control substance, there was something powerful about the combination of these elements in this ancient formulation, Harrison said. The eye salve had the power even to breach the sticky coating and the dense clustering of mature colonies of bacteria, which are notoriously resistant to antibacterial treatments.

When Harrison’s lab diluted the salve to see whether it would continue to work, they perceived what they believe is the medication’s mechanism of action: Even when the diluted salve failed to kill S. aureus, it interfered with communication among cells in the bacterial colony — a key finding because those signals switch on genes that allow bacteria to damage infected tissues.

Blocking this signaling is seen as a promising way to treat infection.

“We know that MRSAinfected wounds are exceptionally difficult to treat in people and in mouse models,” said Kendra Rumbaugh, who performed the testing of Bald’s remedy on MRSAinfected skin wounds in mice. “We have not tested a single antibiotic or experimental therapeutic that is completely effective,” added Rumbaugh, a professor of surgery at Texas Tech University’s School of Medicine. But she said the ancient remedy was at least as effective — “if not better than the conventional antibiotics we used.”

The collaboration between Old English remedies and microbiology has given rise to a program called AncientBiotics at Nottingham, where researchers will seek funding to extend research combining the ancient arts and modern sciences.

Bid to halt Paine Field terminal plan

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

MUKILTEO — The city of Mukilteo and a community group have asked state courts to void Snohomish County’s agreement with a New York company seeking to build a terminal for regular passenger flights at Paine Field.

The city and Save Our

Communities want the county to perform a full review under the State Environmental Policy Act before any deal with Propeller Airports moves ahead. They filed a petition for judicial review in King County Superior Court in Seattle on March 23.

“We’re just saying they should go ahead and do that analysis before they commit exactly to what the lease looks like and any

of the potential costs,” Mukilteo Mayor Jennifer Gregerson said.

The environmental review could include categories such as air quality, stormwater, noise and traffic.

The county, which operates Paine Field, is reviewing the petition and preparing a defense, said Jason Cummings, the county’s chief civil deputy prosecutor.

“We’ve been served with the complaint,” Cummings said.

“We feel confident in the process that’s been followed and we’ll defend against the lawsuit accordingly.”

The suit takes aim at an optionto-lease agreement that the County Council approved March 2 by a 3-2 vote.

The agreement grants Propeller Airports the option to sign

a 30-year lease for 10.7 acres of airport land for the purpose of building a passenger terminal and parking facilities.

The company would pay the county about $429,000 per year in rent. The county also would receive a cut of operating revenue from air service and parking.

Ryan Lambert, playing with his daughter, Alison, 4, recently moved with his wife, Christen, and son, Nolan, 1½, to an area in Bothell that builders say is one of the fastest growing areas in the Puget Sound region.

City or suburbs? It’s a life, lifestyle question

H

ere’s an idea, millennials.

What if we switch? You take the too-big houses.

We boomers are about ready for cool urban apartments.

You take our overstuffed basements and extra bedrooms, where you’ve left us with your old bicycles, school projects and prom dresses. We’ll do a downsize shuffle, shedding stuff for the cultural rewards of urban life.

A swap was my first thought when I read about young city dwellers heading with their kids to the suburbs.

Two economic or housing

JULIE MUHLSTEIN experts have recently made nearly identical — and pretty amusing — comments about the impracticality of city life for young families. Both were quoted in articles by Jim Davis, editor of

The Herald Business Journal.

“The people who are loving apartment or condo living today are young and childless.

They’re going to have children and they’re going to change their attitude,” said Bill Conerly, an Oregon-based economic consultant, at the Lynnwood Convention Center, where Economic Alliance Snohomish County presented its annual forecast March 19. “Walking down to the bar every night is a little more challenging when your toddler isn’t allowed into the bar,” Conerly said in the

March 20 article, which had the headline, “Will the apartment boom go bust?”

The other Herald Business Journal article, “Why home builders flock to one Puget Sound-area hot spot,” focused on young families migrating to new homes in the North Creek area, between Mill Creek and Bothell. And again, a housing expert raised the specter of a little kid in the big city — an image of a tot hanging out on downtown streets outside of bars.

STANWOOD — The first Port Susan Spring Fest is coming to town this month.

On the heels of two popular February festivals, Spring Fest is a collection of games, competitions and lessons for all ages.

“We had heard from the community that they wanted more

family activities throughout the year,” city administrator Deborah Knight said.

Events are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. April 11 at Viking Village on the corner of Highway 532 and 88th Avenue NE. People can hone their boatbuilding skills at a Center for Wooden Boats booth, and the

Stanwood-Camano YMCA is putting on a kids race. Visitors can test their throwing arm at a speed pitch machine or explore heavy equipment like cranes and bulldozers at a Touch-aTruck exhibit.

The Touch-a-Truck, Center for Wooden Boats and YMCA activities are new to local festivals, Knight said.

Hunt for eggs in Sultan street bowling, coloring, games The Sultan Easter egg hunt and block party is scheduled for noon Saturday at Main and First streets.

Local churches, groups and businesses can set up tables at the event. Those groups are asked to donate to the egg hunt and offer an activity, such as face painting,

or crafts. For more information, email elizabeth_ben2003@yahoo. com.

EVERETT — Four months after the Everett Community Streets Initiative issued a final report, more social workers are riding with police officers and nonprofit agencies are better coordinating efforts to help homeless people.

Those are two initiatives launched after the task force drew up a list of 63 recommendations to deal with chronic homelessness and related problems.

At Everett Station on Monday, members of the task force met again to hear about progress.

Some of the recommendations are simpler than others, said deputy city attorney David Hall, who is leading their implementation.

“There will be recommendations that no one will be able to move forward now,” Hall said, because there isn’t enough money, or because a government agency, nonprofit group or other party hasn’t been identified to do it.

The task force was convened by Mayor Ray Stephanson last summer to address homelessness, addiction, mental illness and petty crimes, especially in the city’s downtown area.

The group representing government, businesses, nonprofits and churches produced the list covering areas such as policing, social services, housing, advocacy, public outreach and interagency coordination.

Hil Kaman, a deputy city attorney, noted that the Community Justice Alternatives Program, also known as the mental health court at Everett Municipal Court, is handling double the number of cases it did two months ago simply by making a part-time liaison to the court a full-time employee and increasing the frequency of meetings.

A drug court is also being explored, Kaman said, and the city has begun to reduce the number of people on a list of “chronic utilizers,” a subset of people who account for a disproportionate number of police contacts, emergency room visits, jail bookings and court appearances for minor crimes.

Police Chief Dan Templeman said officers are more visible in several areas around town, with

a race in Stanwood next April, but registration for this year’s event was not high enough, city officials said. The city had eight weeks to plan and was not able to get the number of participants organizers needed.

Muhlstein From Page A3

“Contrary to popular belief, you cannot allow your 5-year-old to play at the corner of Fifth and Pike,” said Todd Britsch, referring to downtown Seattle in the story, which also was published in Monday’s Herald. Britsch, regional director for the housing industry firm Metrostudy, spoke about an exodus to the suburbs.

“These millennials who love living in Belltown close to the bars and close to their jobs — when they have children they’ll begin to migrate to the suburbs.”

Funny, both men mentioned access to bars, rather than museums, concerts, theater, restaurants or cultural diversity, as the big draw city life has on millennials.

Young families are flocking to North Creek, where Britsch said new home prices are lower than in Bellevue or Redmond. Much of the area is

part of the well-regarded Northshore School District. According to Metrostudy, North Creek saw 616 new home sales in 2014, more than anywhere else in Snohomish or King counties.

So what about an old switcheroo to bring baby boomers into the city? Not so fast, you older moms and dads. Despite the North Creek boom, not all young adults are ditching cities for the ’burbs.

I have also read about millennials choosing urban life. A March 24 Associated Press article featured Seattle’s Jenny and Michael Kelly, who are raising their 2-yearold daughter in a Pioneer Square loft apartment.

Jenny Kelly helped start a group called Parents for a Better Downtown Seattle.

Citing the Downtown Seattle Association, the AP story said the number of kindergartners through eighth-graders living in the city’s core

jumped almost 30 percent between 2007 and 2012.

On Monday, the Newsweek website published an article titled “Why Millennials Still Move to Cities.”

It said that although technology would allow many workers to live anywhere, a U.S. Census study shows millennials aren’t moving to suburbs at the rate their elders did.

Choosing where to live is more complicated than city vs. suburb.

Among deal makers, or breakers, are household budgets, commute times and school choices, but also personal preference.

Where — and who — do you want to be?

For my millennial daughter’s young family, it’s a house — neither big nor new — in Seattle. For me, it’s still the old house in Everett where my kids were raised.

Swap? It is fun to think about some snazzy urban space. I promise, I wouldn’t let the grandkids play outside a Belltown bar.

Teen, lighter cause dramatic brush fire near Mill Creek Herald staff MILL CREEK — A teenager playing with a lighter sparked a brush fire that burned more than four acres in a power line rightof-way in the Silver Firs neighborhood east of here Monday afternoon. No one was injured.

The fire was contained to brush south from the Whistle Stop mini-mart in the 5600 block of 134th Place SE to about 137th Street SE.

People living nearby reported flames up to 20 feet high behind their homes, said Leslie Hynes, a spokeswoman for Snohomish County Fire District 1. Snohomish County Fire District 7 crews also responded. Firefighters had the flames under control within 30 minutes.

“The wind was coming from the south and pushing the fire north,” Hynes said. “We had firefighters attacking the flames

from neighborhoods on the east and west side of the right-of-way and on the north from an access road behind the Whistle Stop. This kept the fire from reaching homes along the right-of-way.”

An investigator from the Snohomish County Fire Marshal’s Office interviewed a teenage boy who admitted he had been playing with a lighter in the right-of-way.

The power poles and lines were not damaged.

Arson-damaged dugouts at school replaced, ready for use Herald staff SNOHOMISH — Work was being completed here Tuesday after two dugouts were destroyed by arson at Glacier Peak High School in February.

The dugouts at the varsity girls’ softball field are scheduled to open for a fast-pitch game at 4 p.m.

Wednesday. Glacier Peak will face a team from Shorecrest High School for the second game of the season.

The Snohomish County fire marshal determined that the fires were set. The

first blaze occurred Feb. 13.

The second was discovered Feb. 16. School was not in session either day.

Kristin Foley, a spokeswoman for the Snohomish School District, said many people and businesses reached out to help rebuild the dugouts. The damaged wooden dugouts were removed. Fresh foundations were poured and the new dugouts were constructed from concrete blocks.

“They’re beautiful,” Foley said.

Fencing and electrical wires that connected to the

LAW OFFICE OF ALISON A. FERGUSON

scoreboard also had to be replaced.

The district’s insurance covered some damage, Foley said. Donated or reduced-cost building materials and labor also helped cover costs.

Foley said the Lowe’s Heroes employee volunteer program will be recognized at the Snohomish School Board meeting April 15 for its work in getting the dugouts ready for softball season.

Anyone with information about the fires is asked to call the fire marshal’s office at 425-388-3557 or the Arson Hotline at 800-55-ARSON.

Auditor’s office releases grand jury documents

By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — The Washington state Auditor’s Office on Tuesday released copies of the documents it turned over as part of a federal investigation involving elected auditor Troy Kelley, but they seemed to shed little light on the matter.

The office provided the documents in response to public records requests from The Associated Press and other news organizations. They included the emails and work projects of a part-time employee, Jason JeRue, who also worked in private business with Kelley before his election.

Federal agents searched Kelley’s home in Tacoma two weeks ago, and early

this month a in state and local grand jury issued governments. a subpoena for He and JeRue records related to have a long hisJeRue, including tory, dating to any emails about the late 1990s, Kelley’s former when they worked escrow services together at First company, Post Troy Kelley American Title Closing DepartCo. of Los Angement, which was accused les.

Legislature, has said he A review of JeRue’s did nothing wrong. His emails did not immedioffice is charged with root- ately turn up anything ing out fraud and waste that appeared to relate to

the investigation. JeRue’s emails consist largely of mundane office banter, with updates on website features and gossip about baseball, dogs and medical travails — there were few if any emails directly with Kelley. The only emails sent from his account since the office was served with the grand jury subpoena March 6 seem to have been “read receipts” concerning earlier emails.

The documents include a series of text messages indicating that JeRue and Matt Miller, his supervisor, talked by phone March 9 — the Monday after the auditor’s office received the subpoena. The texts don’t indicate what they discussed.

Miller is one of Kelley’s top executives and managed his campaign for auditor.

Miller and JeRue didn’t text again until March 16, the day Kelley’s house was searched. In those messages, the pair arranged another phone call. It isn’t clear if they knew about the search at the time of their messages, and the messages don’t state the purpose of the phone call.

JeRue has not responded to requests for comment.

Miller did not immediately return an email sent after hours Tuesday seeking information about his conversations with JeRue. The documents say JeRue was hired as a technical writer and generally worked about 2 hours per day, but sometimes more, from his home in California. His tasks included compiling information about audits being

conducted in other states, spreadsheets of media contacts, and links to news stories about the work of the auditor’s office. He also advised the office about a redesign of its website.

JeRue was hired at Kelley’s behest, according an email from Diane Perry, the auditor’s deputy director of administration.

“I had thought we would coordinate his start date with one of his trips up here, but both Jason & Troy referred to his ‘medical appointments’ and I’m not sure what that means,” she wrote on March 5, 2013, in the early days of Kelley’s administration. “I think Troy would like to get him on board soon .... This is not a high priority but eventually Troy is going to want Jason hired.”

Man charged with killing 3 makes court appearance Associated Press MOSCOW, Idaho — A man made his first court appearance in Idaho on Tuesday and was denied bail in a triple slaying that left his mother and two other people dead.

John Lee, 29, faces three counts of first-degree

murder and one count of attempted murder in the January shooting spree.

Lee had faced felony eluding charges in Washington stemming from a high-speed chase, but those counts were dropped Monday and he was extradited to Idaho

Belinda Niebuhr, 47, was discovered in a restaurant parking lot with gunshot wounds and also pronounced dead at a hospital.

Inquest into Pasco shooting unlikely for months

By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — It could be summer before a coroner’s inquest is held in the February police shooting death of an unarmed Mexican migrant, a prosecutor in Eastern Washington said.

In addition, Franklin County Prosecutor Shawn Sant once again defended himself to a Hispanic group amid calls that he step aside and allow a special prosecutor to take over the case.

Sant told the Washington State Commission on Hispanic Affairs on Friday and Consejo Latino on March 12 that he is treating the fatal shooting of Antonio

more bicycle and foot patrols.

“We’re asking officers to get out of their cars,” he said.

Officers also are working alongside social workers so street people in need can be steered to services rather than just be arrested.

Social workers from Catholic Community Services of Western Washington helped the Police Department create cards to hand to willing recipients that enable them to get priority attention at emergency shelters, detox centers or other providers.

“This has been a philosophical change in our department,” Templeman said. “I think it’s long overdue and definitely something the officers of the Everett Police Department are excited about.”

Hall also called attention to three

Zambrano-Montes by three Pasco police officers the same as every other homicide investigation.

“While I provide legal advice as needed throughout the investigation, I do not interview witnesses, collect or test any evidence as this is the job of law enforcement,” Sant said in letters to chairmen of both groups that were acquired

by The Associated Press.

He said it could take months before his office begins considering possible charges against the three officers who fired 17 bullets at Zambrano-Montes in a busy intersection.

He was hit at least five times. Zambrano-Montes was throwing rocks at officers and acting erratically,

potential ordinances to be considered at the Everett City Council meeting Wednesday.

They would prohibit panhandling on street corners and in medians and would ban sitting or camping on sidewalks (or providing food or other services to people there without a permit).

Also, an alcohol impact area would cover much of downtown; in south Everett between Paine Field, Cascade High School and Everett Mall, running the length of Evergreen Way; and along Broadway north of 41st Street.

In addition to working more with law enforcement, social service nonprofits are now better coordinating their own efforts.

The same group of nonprofits that worked on the annual Project Homeless Connect initiative has been regularly convening to arrange for outreach to other encampments, said Sylvia Anderson, the chief executive of the Everett Gospel Mission.

authorities said. His death was captured on a widely circulated video and sparked weeks of protests.

Sant is awaiting reports from the Special Investigative Unit assigned to the case because it involves officers, he said in an email Tuesday.

“It will take at least 60 days after receipt of all reports to prepare for the coroner’s inquest,” he said. “After the inquest we will review whether any charges are appropriate. We may have reports in two or three weeks, but no guarantee. We are also awaiting reports on the second and third autopsies.”

Tight schedules involving other inquests are also

“The best part is we all got out of our silos,” Anderson said.

Ken Stark, the human services director for Snohomish County until he retired Tuesday, said his department has been working with the Sheriff’s Office to explore adding social workers to some county patrols.

He added that the county was requesting money in the state budget to convert the vacant Carnegie Building on the corner of Wall Street and Oakes Avenue into temporary housing for homeless offenders released from jail. The county is also seeking money to provide more “truly affordable” long-term housing somewhere outside the city center for the homeless, he said.

“Which means, in a number of places, free,” Stark said. “It’s going to require everybody to change their perspectives a little bit.”

a factor, he said.

“Realistically with the schedule of other homicide cases set to go May 27 and June 24, the inquest will likely be in July or August time frame,” he said.

While Sant waits, the two groups asked Gov. Jay Inslee to force the attorney general to appoint a special prosecutor. Inslee said last week the county prosecutor has a legal duty to handle criminal offenses in the jurisdiction and he sees no reason to take Sant off the case.

The groups also asked Attorney General Bob Ferguson directly to appoint a special prosecutor, saying Sant has “conveyed the impression that he had taken the side of the

police officers” at media appearances.

Sant said those appearances were intended to make it easier to distribute information.

The groups questioned whether Sant could be impartial because he used to work as a police officer and has a close relationship with the police in his role as a prosecutor.

Sant cited his service and the values he learned in the Air Force: “Integrity first, service before self, and excellence in all we do.”

Sant, 45, took his current position Jan. 1, 2011.

In addition to once being a police officer, he was a defense lawyer and public defender. He said that experience enables him

to be impartial in criminal cases.

He also said he is not involved in the review of the officers’ conduct being done by the Pasco Police Department.

Alison Dempsey-Hall, a spokeswoman for the attorney general’s office, said Ferguson has received messages from the public and copies of letters to the governor and Sant asking him to take a role in the case. He has not responded to those requests and a has no official legal role in the case, she said. Under state law, he can only get involved at the request of the governor or the county prosecutor. Both have said they won’t make that request.

Paine

voted in favor of his company’s proposal a month ago, Smith sought out Moore and other opponents in the audience, offering to talk through their concerns.

An envisioned two-gate terminal could handle an average of more than a dozen takeoffs every day.

That would add about 8,340 takeoffs and landings per year, according to previous studies.

Paine Field has handled 107,000 to 113,000 flights annually in recent years, airport director Arif Ghouse said.

The Federal Aviation Administration determined in December 2012 that the proposed level of commercial passenger flights would not harm Paine Field neighbors. The FAA decision was based on a federal environmental review that cost taxpayers $654,000 and took three years. It only looked at potential impacts through 2018.

The study was based on earlier proposals to operate regularly scheduled passenger flights by Allegiant Air of Las Vegas and Alaska Airlines subsidiary Horizon

Air of Portland. It’s unclear now which airlines Propeller hopes to attract.

Mukilteo, Save Our Communities and the city of Edmonds sued the FAA in federal court to challenge the findings. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals stayed the case last year.

The court would lift the stay and weigh a decision once there’s “conclusive evidence of a viable funding arrangement for the construction of the terminal,” the judges said in their order.

Mukilteo, which adjoins Paine Field, has spent $200,000 on the federal lawsuit since it was filed in early 2013, Gregerson said. The city has up to $110,000 on hand in a reserve fund for Paine Field legal issues.

That doesn’t include Save Our Communities’ contribution.

FAA rules, meanwhile, obligate the county to negotiate in good faith with parties that want to lease vacant airport property for aviation.

Noah Haglund: 425339-3465; nhaglund@ heraldnet.com. Twitter: @ NWhaglund.

From Page A3

Before executing a lease, the company has up to three years to design an acceptable facility and perform environmental studies.

Those are the studies that Mukilteo and Save Our Communities argue, in their lawsuit, should be done before committing to a long-term lease.

For Save Our Communities president Mike Moore, it’s a question of sequence. He wonders how the county determined the lease rate and impact fees, if it lacks a thorough understanding of the impacts that a future terminal would have.

“Why wouldn’t you do your own analysis before making a commitment for up to 50 years?” he asked.

On Tuesday, Propeller CEO Brett Smith said he was unable to comment on pending litigation or provide further details about the project.

Baby 4: Newborn spotted with endangered orcas hailed the birth of four baby orcas since December, they cautioned that the survival rate for babies is about 50 percent.

“Given where we were four months ago, it’s certainly the trend we’re hoping for,” Brad Hanson, wildlife biologist with NOAA’s Northwest Fisheries Science Center in Seattle, said Tuesday.

“It’s still far too early to think we’re out of the woods yet,” said Hanson, who studies the orcas.

Michael Harris, executive director with the Pacific Whale Watch Association, said, “Who doesn’t love baby orcas, right?” But he, too, urged measured optimism.

Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — The former chief executive of a Portland firm that provided investment services to the wealthy was sentenced Tuesday to almost six years in prison for defrauding a widow out of more than $1 million.

The prosecution said in its sentencing memorandum that “desperate men will resort to desperate measures,” and Robert Lee Keys was desperate when his investments tanked during the 2008 economic collapse.

To help save his business and lifestyle, Keys persuaded the widow, Mary Fax, to lend $1.1 million to a businessman from Gulf Breeze, Florida.

Keys didn’t tell the elderly woman that he was getting a $150,000 kickback, or that the businessman was supposed to rescue Keys from failed real estate deals.

The businessman, Bill Kearney, ended up using the money for a car and other personal expenses.

He, too, was charged in the case, but died in November 2013.

Defense attorney Ronald Hoevet, in seeking a sentence of less than five years, tried to draw a distinction between the actions of Keys and Kearney. Keys deceived Mary Fax to save his business, Hoevet said. Unlike Kearney, he did not intend to cheat her out of $1.1 million. “(Keys) did not intend that she would never get her money back,” Hoevet said.

But U.S. District Court

Judge Marco Hernandez said Kearney wouldn’t have got the money without Keys serving as the connection, and Keys got a healthy kickback for making it happen.

“While he may have at some level believed in his own heart that she was going to be repaid, he was personally benefiting from this scheme,” the judge said.

Keys, 66, pleaded guilty last summer to wire fraud, bankruptcy fraud and money laundering. When it was his turn to speak Tuesday, he apologized for betraying the widow.

Keys had been a financial adviser to Fax and her late husband, a wheat farmer, for three decades.

In a letter submitted to the judge last week, Keys said Kearney had promised to save a condominium project from foreclosure in exchange for an immediate loan of $1 million.

“I hid the truth about the loan and the borrower from Mary,” he wrote. “She made the loan to Kearney because she trusted me, and for no other reason.”

Mary Fax died in September after a fall at her farm in The Dalles. She was 90.

The judge ordered Keys to pay $1.1 million restitution to Fax’s estate.

Hoevet said in court documents that Keys has no assets, his wife is divorcing him and old friends have abandoned him.

“Bob Keys is still chasing rainbows,” Hoevet wrote. “Recently, he has been conned by a phony gold deal promoted out the Republic of Mali in West Africa. He is in a bad place.”

Idaho man calls 911 about bar bill Associated Press POST FALLS, Idaho — Police say a northern Idaho man called 911 a dozen times to report being overcharged at a bar and now faces a $1,000 fine and a year in jail.

Post Falls police Capt.

Pat Knight said an officer gave Phillip Poissonnier of Post Falls a ride home after he was kicked out of Club Tequila just after 1 a.m. Monday.

Knight told Spokane

television station KXLY that Poissonnier then made 12 emergency calls, the first wanting officers to come back to discuss his bar tab.

The TV station reported that a bartender produced Poissonnier’s receipts showing he was charged $30 for the 10 beers he ordered.

Police said he faces a misdemeanor citation over misusing 911.

Poissonnier couldn’t be reached by The Associated Press on Tuesday.

crossed,” he added.

The newest orca was spotted Monday swimming with a calf that was born in December and a female whale. Another calf was

born to the J-pod in early February, while a calf in the L-pod was observed in late February.

Balcomb said he thinks the baby’s mother could

be J-16, the female whale it was swimming with Monday. But it may be some time before the relationships are sorted out, he added.

SEATTLE — The endangered population of killer whales that spend time in Washington state waters is experiencing a baby boom with a fourth baby orca documented this winter.

The newborn was spotted Monday by whalewatching crews and a naturalist in the waters of British Columbia, according to the Pacific Whale Watch Association, which represents 29 whalewatching operators in Washington and British Columbia.

The orca was swimming with other members of the J-pod, one of three families of orcas that are protected in Washington

and Canada.

Ken Balcomb, a senior scientist with the Center for Whale Research in Friday Harbor, confirmed the birth to The Associated Press on Tuesday.

The center keeps the official census of endangered southern resident killer whales for the federal government.

The birth brings the population to 81, still dangerously low. Listed as endangered in 2005, the whales are struggling because of pollution, lack of food and other reasons.

“This one looked quite plump and healthy,” said Balcomb, who reviewed photographs of the newborn. “We’re getting there.

We wish all these babies well. They look good.”

Iran nuclear talks extended a day

By George Jahn and Matthew Lee Associated Press

LAUSANNE, Switzerland — Nuclear talks between Iran and six world powers will pass the negotiators’ self-imposed Tuesday night deadline to produce the outline of an agreement and will be extended by at least a day, the United States said.

State Department spokeswoman Marie Harf said enough progress had been made to warrant an extension, although there still were “several difficult issues” to bridge.

Secretary of State John Kerry, who had planned to leave the talks Tuesday, will remain until Wednesday, she said.

Diplomats said China’s foreign minister had left the talks to return to Beijing and would be represented by his deputy.

U.S. officials said they were prepared to continue to negotiate into Wednesday if it could lead to a framework accord.

An Iranian negotiator, meanwhile, said his team could stay “as long as necessary” to clear the remaining hurdles.

In Washington, White House press secretary Josh Earnest suggested that talks meant to produce an outline that would allow the sides to continue negotiations until the June 30 final deadline had not bridged all gaps.

But he said that the sides were working to produce a text with few specifics, accompanied by documents outlining areas where further talks were needed.

mean if it’s midnight and a deal has not been reached but the conversations continue to be productive — we’ll be prepared to continue the talks into tomorrow,” he told reporters. “If we are making progress toward the finish line, than we should keep going.”

Officials said earlier Tuesday they hoped to wrap up the talks by the deadline with a joint general statement agreeing to start a new phase of negotiations to curb Iran’s nuclear program.

That statement would be accompanied by more detailed documents that would include technical information on understandings of

steps required on all sides to resolve outstanding concerns.

Those documents would allow the sides to claim that the new phase of talks is not simply a continuation of negotiations that have already been twice extended since an interim agreement between Iran and the so-called P5+1 nations — the United States, Britain, France, Germany, Russia and China — was concluded in November 2013.

President Barack Obama and other leaders have said they are not interested in a third extension.

though, obstacles remained on uranium enrichment, where stockpiles of enriched uranium should be stored, limits on Iran’s nuclear research and development and the timing and scope of sanctions among other issues, according to negotiators.

If the parties agree only to a broad framework that leaves key details unresolved, Obama can expect stiff opposition from members of Congress who want to move forward with new Iran sanctions legislation.

Lawmakers had agreed to hold off on such a measure through March while the parties negotiated.

A forensic scientist of the Criminal Research Institute of the National Gendarmerie leaves after collecting DNA taken from the body parts of people killed in the crash of Germanwings jetliner, in Pontoise, France, on Monday.

Lubitz took a break of “several months,” the airline said in its disclosure of the co-pilot’s previous depression incident.

But it said Lubitz had subsequently been issued medical certification of his fitness to fly.

The records handed to investigators include email correspondence between Lubitz and the Flight

Training Pilot School, including “medical documents he submitted in connection with resuming his flight training, about a ‘previous episode of severe depression.’”

Analysis of the cockpit voice recorder recovered shortly after the March 24 crash revealed that Lubitz had suggested that flight Capt. Patrick

Sondenheimer take a bathroom break once the aircraft reached cruising altitude.

Investigators believe he then locked him out of the flight deck and overrode the autopilot setting to send the aircraft into its fatal descent.

The recorder captured Sondenheimer’s frantic appeals to Lubitz to unlock the cockpit door, until the plane crashed at more than 400 mph. The Airbus shattered on impact.

Also Tuesday, Lufthansa said its insurer, Allianz, had set aside $300 million to “deal with all costs arising in connection with the crash,” Lufthansa spokeswoman Kerstin Lau said.

The victims were from 18 countries, including Germany, Spain, Britain, the United States and Israel. Immediate assistance of $53,500 has been offered for each victim, in addition to whatever final compensation is agreed with victims’ families. The money will be paid out “in the coming few days,” Lufthansa spokesman Thomas Jachnow said.

4 Clinton emails about drones released

By Jack Gillum Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The State Department says it can find only four emails sent between former Secretary Hillary Rodham Clinton and her staff concerning drone strikes and certain U.S. surveillance programs, and those notes have little to do with either subject.

She asks for a phone call in one, a phone number in another. She seeks advice on how best to condemn information leaks, and accidentally replies to one work email with questions apparently about decorations.

The messages also reveal Clinton used an iPad to email while secretary of state in addition to her BlackBerry, despite her explanation she set up a private email account and homebrew server while she was the nation’s top diplomat

Arkansas passes its religious freedom bill LITTLE ROCK — The Legislature on Tuesday gave final approval to a bill that critics charge could allow discrimination against gays and lesbians in the name of religious beliefs. The passage came hours after Indiana’s governor promised a legislative fix for that state’s version of the bill, which has led to a national uproar and some boycotts.

Arkansas’ Religious Freedom Restoration Act now heads to the desk of Gov. Asa Hutchinson, a moderate Republican, who has said he will sign it into law.

If the governor approves it, Arkansas would become the 21st state to enact a version of a religious freedom act, designed to prevent the state from taking actions that infringe on individual’s religious beliefs.

Co-pilot told flight school of depression BERLIN — The young Germanwings pilot accused of having deliberately crashed an Airbus A320 a week ago, killing all 150 people on board, had informed his flight school in 2009 of an “episode of severe depression,” Lufthansa said in a statement issued Tuesday.

Lufthansa said it had submitted relevant documents to crash investigators in Duesseldorf on the reports made

by Germanwings Flight 9525 co-pilot Andreas Lubitz to the Lufthansa flight school in Bremen “to ensure a swift and seamless clarification” of what the airline knew about the man’s mental health and when it knew it.

Carsten Spohr, Lufthansa’s chief executive, had said that medical privacy laws prevented the parent airline from disclosing information about the grounds for Lubitz’s interruption of his flight training in 2009.

ACROSS THE U.S.

so that she could carry a single device.

The four emails were obtained by The Associated Press under a 2013 Freedom of Information Act request and offer one of the first looks into Clinton’s correspondence at the State Department. It is the first time it has provided Clinton-related documents in response to several outstanding FOIA requests, the first of which AP filed in 2010.

The response also came about three weeks after AP filed a federal lawsuit against the State Department, seeking to force the release of materials during Clinton’s tenure.

Clinton is widely expected to announce her candidacy for president next month.

The 2013 request sought correspondence between Clinton and her advisers over a fouryear period that contained keywords such as “drone,”

“metadata” and “prism.” The latter was among several code words for controversial U.S. surveillance programs revealed by former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden.

Although Clinton left office four months before the Snowden leaks were first published in June 2013, the AP’s request sought messages about those programs before they were publicly disclosed.

The request also asked for certain emails about government programs to eavesdrop on terror suspects believed to be foreigners.

Steven Aftergood, a government secrecy expert at the Federation of American Scientists, said the low number of emails provided to AP could be because the State Department uses different words to describe its operations — such as “UAV,” or unmanned aerial

vehicle, instead of “drone.”

It’s also possible that Clinton and her advisers’ emails are not in the department’s archives, he said.

“If there are four, one would expect there to be quite a few more than that,” Aftergood said. “And it looks like another indication of faulty records management and retrieval at the State Department.”

Clinton has said she exchanged about 60,000 emails while secretary of state, about half of which were work-related. She said none contained classified information, and that her private email system did not suffer any security breaches.

She deleted emails — some 30,000 in total — she described as personal in nature, and has declined the request of Republicans that she turn over her server for an independent review.

President Barack Obama on Tuesday released military aid to Egypt that was suspended after the 2013 overthrow of the government, in an effort to boost Cairo’s ability to combat the extremist threat in the region. The White House said Obama notified Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi on Tuesday that the U.S. would be sending 12 F-16 fighter jets, 20 missiles and up to 125 tank kits, while continuing to request $1.3 billion in military assistance for Egypt.

Md.: Dress-wearing man killed at NSA gate is ID’d Two cross-dressing men who were fired upon by National Security Agency police when they disobeyed orders at a heavily guarded gate had just stolen a car from a man who had picked them up and checked into a motel, police said Tuesday. The FBI said the driver, Ricky Shawatza Hall, 27, died at the scene, and his passenger remained hospitalized Tuesday. An NSA police officer was treated and released. NSA police fired on the SUV after Hall failed to follow instructions for leaving a restricted area.

As it turns out, Hall and his passenger had just driven off in the SUV of a Baltimore man, 60, who told investigators that he had picked up the two strangers and brought them to a motel.

N.Y.: Foreign adoptions fall The number of foreign children adopted by U.S. parents dropped by 9 percent last year to the lowest level since 1982, according to new State Department figures. The department’s report for the 2014 fiscal year shows 6,441 adoptions from abroad, down from 7,094 in 2013 and about 74 percent below the high of 22,884 in 2004.

China accounted for the most children adopted in the U.S., but its total of 2,040 was down more than 10 percent from 2013 and far below the peak of 7,903 in 2005.

AROUND THE WORLD Argentina: Unions strike Transportation unions brought Argentina to a standstill on Tuesday with a one-day national strike to protest income tax rates and high inflation.

Flights were cancelled, schools shut down, banks closed and thousands of businesses were shuttered. The unions argue that high taxes and inflation, which private economists put at around 35 percent, have eroded wage gains.

They also want to raise the minimum income on which taxes are applied.

Nigeria: Ex-dictator wins President Goodluck Jonathan conceded defeat in the presidential elections, saying “nobody’s ambition is worth the blood of any Nigerian.” Jonathan said he has sent his best wishes to his successor, former military dictator Muhammadu Buhari. His concession opens the way for an unprecedented peaceful transfer of power in Africa’s richest and most populous nation.

Kuwait: Donations fall short International donors committed $3.8 billion in aid for Syrians affected by the civil war at a donors’ conference in Kuwait on Tuesday, less than half of what the U.N. requested for this year to cope with the growing humanitarian crisis. More than a quarter of the total came from two countries: Kuwait, which hosted the conference and pledged half a billion dollars, and the United States, which promised $507 million. The U.N. had requested $8.4 billion this year.

Rivalry drops PCs, tablet prices

By Michael Liedtke and Anick Jesdanun Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Google is releasing its cheapest Chromebook laptops yet, two versions priced at $149 aimed at undercutting Microsoft’s Windows franchise and gaining ground in even more classrooms.

Various PC manufacturers have been working with Google to design lightweight laptops running on the Chrome operating system since 2011. The newest versions are made by Hisense and Haier. Hisense’s Chromebook can be ordered beginning Tuesday at Walmart.com and Haier’s version can be bought at

Amazon.com.

Their arrival coincides with Microsoft’s rollout of a lowerpriced Surface tablet in an effort to reach students and budgetconscious families. Pre-orders for that device began Tuesday.

As the prices for tablets and smartphones have been declining, it has forced on PC makers to lower their prices, said International Data Corp. analyst Jay Chou. The success of the Chromebook line is intensifying the PC pricing pressure.

“It has been good news for consumers, but not so good for vendors,” Chou said.

The cheaper version of the Surface Pro 3 sells for $499, compared with $799 to $1,949 for

the higher-end models. The discounted version has a slightly smaller screen — 10.8 inches rather than 12 — a slower processor, and less flexible kickstand — just three angles rather than unlimited positions.

The Chromebook has served a dual purpose for Google. Like the company’s Android software for mobile devices, the Chrome system is set up so users will automatically begin using Google’s search engine and other services, such as Gmail and YouTube.

Google has used the Chromebooks as a prod to bring down the prices of all PCs, something the company wanted to do because it has more opportunities to show the digital ads that bring in most

of its revenue when more people can afford to buy an Internetconnected device.

“We cannot be happier that Microsoft is helping drive down the prices of PCs,” said Caesar Sengupta, Google’s vice president of product management for Chromebooks. “If Microsoft is reacting to (Chromebook’s low prices), that’s fantastic. We love it.”

Unlike most computers, Chromebooks don’t have a hard drive. Instead, they function as terminals dependent on an Internet connection to get most work done.

Etsy IPO at $267M?

ASSOCIATED PRESS

A driver walks to his truck at a truck stop in San Antonio, Texas, on Nov. 28, 2006. Nearly all truck tires have been built for a maximum sustained speed of 75 mph since the middle of last decade,

This photo of a popular-size semi-tractor trailer tire shows the load index, 146/143, and speed rating, L. The L speed rating indicates that 75 mph is the maximum speed at which this tire can carry a load weighing 6,614 pounds at the recommended air pressure.

the problem. Highway officials in three states that allow trucks to go 80 mph or more either disregarded tire safety ratings, wouldn’t answer questions about them or told the AP they were unaware of them.

From 2009 through 2013, there were just over 14,000 fatal crashes in the U.S. involving heavy trucks and buses, killing almost 16,000 people, according to NHTSA. Tires were a factor in 198 of those crashes and 223 deaths.

Forty people died in truck tirerelated crashes in 2009, and that rose to 52 in 2013, the latest year for which statistics are available.

It’s hard to pinpoint the cause of most blowouts. Road debris can be a factor. Underinflation, heavy loads and high speeds can also damage tires over time.

States set their own speed limits, having been given sole authority to do so by Congress in the mid-1990s, while the federal government, through

NHTSA, has authority to raise tire standards.

For now, NHTSA contends the most effective way to attack the problem is a regulation to require devices that would prevent trucks from going over 75 mph. But the proposed measure has been stalled for years in a morass of cost analyses and government reviews.

Another possible solution would be for manufacturers to make tires that can handle higher speeds. Some companies already produce a small number safetyrated at 81 mph that cost about the same as those built for 75 mph.

But manufacturers are hesitant to make more, fearing sales won’t be big enough to justify the cost of redesigning and retooling, said Dan Zielinski, spokesman for the Rubber Manufacturers Association.

He said many trucking companies would not be interested in higher-rated tires because they already equip their 18-wheelers with speed governors that prevent them from going See TIRES, Page A10

The New York company said its IPO will include 16.7 million shares, and it expects them to price at $14 to $16 each. Etsy said Tuesday in a regulatory filing that it was selling 13.3 million of the shares. If the shares price at $16, Etsy’s market value would be $1.78 billion.

Associated Press

DETROIT — Many tractortrailers on the nation’s roads are driven faster than the 75 mph their tires are designed to handle, a practice that has been linked to wrecks and blowouts but has largely escaped the attention of highway officials.

Nearly all truck tires have been built for a maximum sustained speed of 75 mph since the middle of last decade, when drivers across the vast majority of the U.S. were allowed to go no faster than 65 or 70 mph.

But 14 states, mainly west of the Mississippi River, now have speed limits of 75, 80, even 85 mph in part of Texas. Some of those states acted without consulting the tire industry.

Safety advocates and tire experts say that habitually driving faster than a tire’s rated speed can generate excessive heat that damages the rubber, with potentially catastrophic results.

“It’s a recipe for disaster,” said James Perham, president of Extreme Transportation Corp., an automobile-hauling company near San Diego that filed a complaint with regulators about Michelin tires after seven blowouts caused an estimated $20,000 to $30,000 in damage to its rigs.

The disconnect between highway speed limits and safety standards was discovered by The Associated Press in a government document that detailed an investigation into truck tire failures.

Last month, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration closed the investigation into blowouts involving certain Michelin tires after determining that truck operators, not the tires, were at fault. An investigator wrote that exceeding the 75 mph rating was the most likely cause in all 16 complaints examined.

The blowouts resulted in three crashes but no injuries.

safely go up to 112 mph.

The American Trucking Associations says it opposes speed limits over 65 mph, and it has petitioned the government to require speed-limiting devices on trucks.

ATA spokesman Sean McNally provided a 2007 survey done by the group showing that 69 percent of trucking companies already had such devices on at least some of their rigs, with an average limit of 69 mph.

Still, it took federal regulators five years to propose a regulation, and it is still being reviewed by government agencies. It could take months, if not years, to go into effect.

For now, truck drivers keep driving at high speeds — legally and illegally.

NHTSA began investigating the Michelin tires last October after getting complaints about tire failures, mainly from auto-hauling companies. In one case, a truck going more than the 75 mph speed limit on I-10 in Deming, New Mexico, blew a tire and rolled onto its side.

Of the states that now let trucks travel 75 mph or more, three allow 80 or higher — Texas, Utah and Wyoming. South Dakota is about to raise its truck speed limit to 80, and three more states — Missouri, Nevada and Washington — may go to 75 or higher.

To make sure drivers know their tires’ limits, NHTSA is considering a requirement that maximum speeds be listed on the sidewalls of all truck tires.

U.S. stocks ended lower Tuesday, erasing much of the market’s gain from the day before.

The broad decline came as traders seized on the final day of the quarter to do some profit-taking and prune their portfolios.

Chromebooks have been gaining in popularity, particularly in schools, as more applications and services made available over Internet connections — a phenomenon known as “cloud computing” that has reduced the need for hard drives.

About 6 million Chromebooks were sold worldwide last year, more than doubling from 2.7 million in 2013, according to IDC. In contrast, sales in the overall PC market slipped 2 percent last year, marking the third consecutive annual decline.

IN OUR VIEW | FBI investigation of state official

State auditor should step aside Presumption of innocence and benefit of the doubt are related concepts. The former is a cherished part of our criminal justice system. The latter, a protection of our less formal but still popular court of public opinion.

State Auditor Troy Kelley, whose home was raided and Olympia office records seized by the FBI last month, has not been tried or as yet charged with any crime, nor has the FBI provided many details about its investigation. The probe appears to involve allegations of unpaid taxes from an escrow services business and also may involve a former partner of Kelley’s who was recently employed part-time by the auditor’s office.

The presumption of innocence remains for Kelley. But any benefit of the doubt Kelley

enjoyed is quickly vanishing as details elsewhere have trickled out about his past financial dealings with the escrow service business he owned prior to his election to the Auditor’s Office as a Democrat in 2012.

The latest brings the story to Everett. The Seattle Weekly, in a story published in Tuesday’s Herald, found that Kelley had claimed that records sought by a former business partner, Old Republic Title, as part of a lawsuit were lost in a fire that destroyed the Stewart Title Co. building in Everett in 2008.

Old Republic claimed that Kelley, who was then a state representative from Pierce County, pocketed $1.2 million in fees collected from escrow customers who had paid off their mortgages. Old Republic claimed the fees should have

been returned to its clients.

Kelley said the records from his Tacoma-based business, Post Closing Department, could have proved he had done nothing wrong, but were lost in the 2008 Everett fire.

But, the Seattle Weekly reported, Kelley’s explanation of what happened to the records is even more convoluted. Scott Smith, attorney for Old Republic, said that Kelley’s office was adjacent to and not in the Stewart Title building, and Kelley admitted under oath in a 2010 deposition that his office suffered only smoke damage and that he couldn’t explain why electronic records, copies of which should have been kept outside the office, weren’t available.

Kelley, in the deposition said he had given his office computer to Goodwill, had

deleted emails and cleared records from a website, admitting that he wasn’t much of a record-keeper.

That’s an odd and troubling admission for someone who heads a state agency that holds municipal and county governments and state agencies accountable for their use of state resources and publicly criticizes those whose recordkeeping practices are found lacking. Such audits often make the point that lax record-keeping obscures the transparency that assures the public that money and resources are being properly managed.

Kelley, as the elected steward of the state Auditor’s Office, should at the very least step aside while the investigation continues so that the office is not tarnished by the doubts now following him.

org/TrainWatch. The information we can gather ourselves is very useful to state and local authorities.

What Washington can do, furthermore, is more to encourage our own energy users to look beyond the use of fossil fuels. The state incentives for solar power should be extended into the future and the incentives for Community Solar should be expanded to include installations on non-government, non-profit buildings such as churches.

I can speak with authority about the effectiveness of solar energy in Everett. In 2009, we installed 5 Kw of solar photovoltaic panels on the roof of our recently remodeled home. We had made the home well insulated in the remodel.

The roof-top system has provided plenty of power for all the house needs and after five years has half paid for itself.

Last year we added an electric car and a hot tub. We still produce more power than we are using. Over a whole year, we get a net refund from the PUD. Such energy planning should be considered by all home owners. Others can invest in Community Solar and get 10 percent dividends on their investments. It’s the right thing to do.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■MOLLY CONLEY

Verdict, lax law lack all logic I must agree with the family of Molly Conley, this was a miscarriage of justice. Perhaps someone can explain to me what difference it makes to the victim and her family and friends, that since you cannot prove that Molly was the intended victim, it isn’t murder. Logic tells me that firing a gun into a group of people will quite possibly leave someone dead. People must be held responsible for what they do, not for what they didn’t intend to do.

It is also maddening that the prosecutors are “comfortable” with this decision. We apparently need a prosecutor who will raise the “comfort” level of his or her office. Right now it is unacceptably low.

Ban all travel, spend funds here I see in the news that Jay Inslee and Seattle Mayor Ed Murray are banning travel of state and Seattle employees to Indiana.

I see this as a very good thing. It means the taxpayers’ money is maybe going to be used for something within our state instead of on state employees travel. I sincerely hope the other 48 states besides Indiana and Washington do some of this nature to get our leaders to ban all this wasted travel money to other states. Why do our state employees need to go to Indiana? The Indy 500 isn’t until the end of May. Pat Fischer Ellensburg

Rip Haywire is hilarious although zany; Zits really captures teenagers; Stone Soup is wonderful; and of course the standards Mother Goose, Red and Rover and others always entertain.

■■OIL TRAINS

A lot we can do to take action Neither of the measures cited in the Sunday article, “Lawmakers aim to toughen laws on oil trains” by Jerry Cornfield really address the long term problem with the passage of fossil fuels through Snohomish County. Unfortunately, the states simply do not have much authority when it comes to interstate commerce. The U.S. Constitution explicitly gives that authority to the federal government. About all we can do is ask for information from the railroads and ask them to please be careful.

As to more information about crude oil and coal train movement, citizens of Snohomish County can take some action themselves. A train is hard to hide and we can gather some of the information we need ourselves. I encourage people to join the 2015 Snohomish County Train Watch the week of April 19-25.

■■AIR DISASTERS

Pass law to give vets holiday off On Veterans Day when we honor veterans who served this country, many veterans don’t get the day off and must work while employees working for government and financial institutions have the day off. Chances are many of those employees of those institutions never served a day in uniform, yet enjoy a paid holiday.

Washington state lawmakers should write and pass legislation mandating private employers who employ at least one honorably discharged veteran to give them a paid Veterans Day off without requiring the veteran to use accrued vacation, sick leave, etc. If the veteran wants to work on Veterans Day, then holiday pay should be given. Oregon and Iowa have laws that allow veterans Veterans Day off, but those laws are skewed to the employers advantage (employer decides if veteran gets Veterans Day off, if the veteran gets paid for Veterans Day, etc.,) they become meaningless and insulting to working veterans.

It is past time private employers give their veterans a paid Veterans Day off and the Legislature must step in to make it happen.

Override could avert crashes

■■WRECKING CREW

As a former private pilot and air traffic controller in the Swiss air force, my idea of installing inexpensive electronic equipment on airliners could avert future air disasters such as 9/11 and the recent crash of an Airbus in southern France. The idea is so simple it boggles the mind that it has not already been tried, especially since most of the equipment is already on board.

While I enjoyed the Los Angeles Times article about the famous “Wrecking Crew” of studio musicians on Sunday, I can’t help wonder why no mention was made of the fact that legendary bassist Carol Kaye, the only female member of that talented group, was born in Everett?

It may be best to wait out Mideast fights

A

s gung-ho “experts” press President Obama to do this, that or the other in the Middle East, keep a simple rule in mind: Whatever the avid interventionists suggest probably won’t work — and surely will have unintended consequences.

Obama’s overall policy toward the region has been modest, cautious, incremental and situational.

His boldest move has been to try negotiations, EUGENE ROBINSON rather than airstrikes or stronger sanctions, as a way to constrain Iran’s nuclear ambitions. He has been reluctant to commit U.S. military forces and hesitant to enforce red lines, even his own. He has eschewed unilateralism, pressing allies to do their part.

Critics look at the bloody instability throughout the region and charge that Obama has been passive. But history suggests that more active U.S. involvement would likely make things bloodier.

A case in point is the conflict in Yemen, where a coalition led by Saudi Arabia has launched extensive airstrikes to bolster the recognized government against Houthi rebels who threaten to take over the country.

On one level, the fighting amounts to a proxy war between two would-be regional superpowers — Saudi Arabia vs. Iran, which supports the Houthis. On another level, Yemen is but one battlefield in a wider religious war, Sunni against Shiite, that is playing out across the region. On yet another level, the fight is personal: Ali Abdullah Saleh, the longtime dictator who was deposed during the Arab Spring, has allied himself with the Houthis in an apparent attempt at a comeback.

Saleh, who is Shiite, violently repressed the Houthis while he was in power. He was seen as a crucial U.S. ally in the fight against al-Qaida, which has a more active and menacing presence in Yemen than perhaps anywhere else in the world. So, to all those who complain that Obama has kept the United States on the sidelines when we ought to be doing something, the question is: precisely what?

Should Obama intervene forcefully on behalf of Saleh’s successor, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who had to flee the country by ship as Houthis threatened to capture the port city of Aden? If so, we would be fighting against the Yemeni faction that most implacably opposes al-Qaida.

In the Middle East, it has been said, “the enemy of my enemy is also my enemy.”

This seems to be the case in Yemen, where the U.S. goal, surely, is to strengthen neither the Iranian-backed Houthis nor al-Qaida. It is difficult to see how decisive intervention on either side would serve our national interest or make us safer. And it is easy to imagine how we could unintentionally make the situation much worse.

After all, we’ve consistently done just that. The 2003 invasion of Iraq was intended to implant a multiethnic, multicultural democracy at the very heart of the Muslim world. Instead, by destroying every vestige of the secular Iraqi state the United States ended up allowing long-smoldering tensions between Sunnis and Shiites to ignite.

The U.S.-sponsored government in Baghdad turned out to be a brigade of arsonists, not firefighters. As a result, the United States is now allied with Iran in an attempt to keep Islamic State militants from capturing the Mesopotamian heartland.

Small wonder, then, that Obama has turned a deaf ear to those advocating some kind of robust intervention in Syria. When aides pressed him to arm the “moderate” Syrian rebels, he demanded convincing evidence that U.S.-supplied weapons would not soon end up in the hands of unambiguous enemies. The battlefield success of well-trained Islamic State fighters suggests that Obama’s caution was well-placed.

Current U.S. military action against the Islamic State has the effect of strengthening the regime of dictator Bashar al-Assad in Damascus. This is the same Assad who crossed Obama’s “red line” by using chemical weapons against his people.

It’s the same Assad who, Obama once declared, had to go.

Is it inconsistent, then, to pursue policies that help keep him in power? Yes, but it is probably also wise, at least for now. If the Assad government were to disappear tomorrow, it would likely be replaced by something more volatile and more threatening.

The upheaval taking place across the Middle East is unprecedented. I don’t know if U.S. intervention can make things better. But I know it can definitely make things worse.

shooting on October 24, 2014,” Tulalip Tribes Chairman Herman Williams said in a statement.

“Guns in the hands of people who have demonstrated they will use violence is a dangerous mix that is prohibited by law,” acting U.S. attorney Annette Hayes said in a news release. “Our office has a long history of working with our federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement partners across Western Washington to prosecute those who illegally possess firearms.

This case is part of that effort and a reminder that we are united in our commitment to get firearms out of the hands of those who pose the greatest risk to our communities.”

According to the criminal complaint filed in the case, in 2002 Fryberg’s then-girlfriend asked the Tulalip Tribal Court for an order of protection, alleging that he had threatened her and had physically assaulted her.

The protection order was made permanent and had no expiration date.

In September 2012, Fryberg pleaded “no contest” to violating the protection order. He was fined and placed on probation for one year.

Less than four months later, he allegedly went to the Cabela’s Sporting Goods store on the Tulalip reservation and purchased the Beretta and, over subsequent months, four other firearms.

Fryberg filled out forms for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives stating that he was not the subject of any court order restraining him from harassing, stalking or threatening an intimate partner or the child of a partner.

The form states that anyone subject to such an order is prohibited from purchasing a firearm.

It wasn’t immediately clear how Fryberg passed the background check and was allowed to purchase the gun.

A spokesman for Cabela’s said Tuesday that the store’s records “indicate the transaction was processed in compliance with the applicable regulations, including background checks.”

The firearms case was

investigated by the FBI and the Tulalip Tribal Police Department.

Democratic state Sen. John McCoy, a member of the Tulalip Tribes, said he didn’t know Fryberg had been subject to a restraining order.

“That’s exceptionally troublesome to me,” McCoy told The Associated Press. “It points me to the issue we’ve been arguing about in the state, that people are not going to tell the truth when they fill out the forms to buy a gun, so maybe we should have a registry of people who are subject to these orders.

That’ll be more fodder for discussion.”

get information about protection orders from their courts into the state and federal criminal databases, Anderson said.

“It’s not mandatory for tribes to do it,” she said.

In Snohomish County, tribes can send the orders to the Snohomish County Superior Court Clerk’s Office. The protection order is then sent to the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office to enter the information into the state database.

“To my knowledge that didn’t happen in this case,” Anderson said.

It has only been in recent years that the county has

been filing those orders on behalf of the Tulalip Tribal Court, she said.

Tulalip Tribes officials declined to comment about whether the court records of 2002 or 2012 had been shared with the county clerk.

“It is not our policy to comment on an active investigation, and at this time, we have no further information to share,” Tribal Chairman Herman Williams said in a statement.

A spokesman with Cabela’s said store staff complied with federal regulations, including doing a background check on

Fryberg. Court records show that Fryberg purchased the gun Jan. 11, 2013, and returned 12 days later to pick it up.

Fryberg was arrested Tuesday and charged with unlawful gun possession in U.S. District Court in Seattle. He is accused of lying on federal paperwork to purchase five guns between January 2013 and July 2014 at Cabela’s.

Federal prosecutors allege that Fryberg did not check a box indicating that he was subject to a court order restraining him “from harassing, stalking or threatening your child or an intimate partner or child

of such partner.”

In 2002, his thengirlfriend sought the order from the tribal court, alleging physical abuse and threats. Fryberg was found guilty of violating the order in 2012.

Congress in 1994 amended federal gun laws to ban domestic violence perpetrators and those under court restraining orders from owning or buying guns, University of Washington law professor Mary D. Fan said.

“The amendments reflect scientific findings that domestic violence perpetrators pose a particularly heightened risk of

using a gun to kill someone,” she said.

The databases have expanded over the years as law enforcement agencies have improved their reporting.

“The data is only as good and comprehensive” as the state’s willingness and resources to submit information, she said.

Anderson said that the State Patrol continues to work with tribes to expand information sharing.

“We’re making strides,” she said.

is scheduled to end April 26.

Two items of interest in Snohomish County received different treatment in the Senate budget compared to the House proposal.

The GOP plan provides no money to increase the mapping of landslide-prone areas using technology known as Light Distance and Ranging, or Lidar. Images obtained

with Lidar can provide a sophisticated understanding of geological dangers.

Following the deadly Oso mudslide last year, the state Department of Natural Resources requested $6.6 million to map more areas and hire more geologists to evaluate applications to cut timber in areas with unstable slopes or a potential for landslides.

“I’m absolutely disappointed,” Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark said in an email. “In

the wake of the Highway 530 landslide, it is concerning that there is no funding proposal to map our state’s landslides and other geologic hazards.

“In addition, the budget provides nothing to improve the review of thousands of timber-harvest applications, some of which are on potentially unstable and steep slopes,” he wrote.

House Democrats propose $4.5 million for the agency in its budget, and

that drew criticism from Goldmark.

Washington State University’s effort to expand in Everett, meanwhile, did get a boost in the GOP plan.

There is $4.5 million for WSU to launch degree programs in software engineering, sustainable food systems, data analytics and aviation management at the University Center at Everett Community College. This is more than double the amount WSU would get under the House budget proposed last week.

The Senate proposal looks to transfer about $375 million from more than a dozen different accounts to the state’s general fund. An additional $296 million will

come from permanently shifting the distribution of the marijuana taxes — which currently go to health programs, among others — to education. The budget would allocate $2.5 million to the Department of Health for marijuana education.

House Majority Leader Pat Sullivan and Democratic Rep. Reuven Carlyle issued a joint statement that said the Senate plan is “an unsustainable budget that relies on gimmicks, gambles and a lot of marijuana.”

In a written statement, Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee urged House and Senate lawmakers to work quickly to compromise on a final budget plan.

It’s that time of year!

would have to return an indictment,” said Emily Langlie, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Seattle.

A detention hearing was set for Thursday to decide whether he will be released pending charges. Two issues will be discussed: the defendant’s likeliness to appear at future hearings and the safety of the community.

Fryberg was arrested early Tuesday morning at his job on the reservation, Langlie said.

If he is convicted, Fryberg could face a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison, a $250,000 fine and three years of supervision.

Fryberg remained silent

during the hearing, letting his public defender, Kyana Givens, represent him.

The government was represented by assistant U.S. attorney Ye-Ting Woo. Several family members were in the courtroom.

They declined to comment.

The Tulalip Tribes on Tuesday said its police department continues to coordinate with federal authorities, but declined to comment about an active investigation. The complaint detailing the allegations was written by an FBI special agent.

Amendment 6D. This amendment is an alternative to 6B or 6C. Instead of requiring all marijuana applicants in R-5 to meet all the standards in Amendment 6B, this amendment would require PDS and the Hearing Examiner to consider including some of those standards as conditions on a permit-by-permit basis to ensure compatibility.

Amendment 7. Prohibit marijuana-related facilities within the exterior boundaries of the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

Amendment 8. Remove the prohibition against new medical marijuana facilities locating within 1,000 feet of airports.

Silvertips prepared for long line change Everett coach Constantine calls non-traditional line change that happens only at Spokane Arena ‘silly.’

By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

EVERETT — The first-round playoff series between the Everett Silvertips and Spokane Chiefs shifts to Spokane Arena beginning Wednesday, and that means one thing: Get ready for the long line change.

Spokane Arena is the only building in the WHL in which the teams have to deal with the long line change twice a game instead of once, and it’s something the Tips will have to solve in Games 3 and 4.

So what exactly is the long line Kevin change?

Constantine In nearly every hockey arena the benches are located on the same side of the ice. The direction the teams play is based on the benches. The teams play the first and third periods with their bench in front of their own zone, then play the second period with their bench in front of the opponent’s zone.

The direction of play has a profound effect on teams’ ability to change their players on the fly. Teams want to make a line change when the puck is safely away from their own goal.

Accomplishing that is much easier when the bench is in front of a team’s own zone. When the bench is in front of the opposing zone, players are required to skate a greater distance to get

Monroe pitcher McKenzie Schulz (11) winds up to deliver a pitch during a game against Lake Stevens at Lake Stevens High School on Tuesday.

Strong outing from Schulz lifts Monroe to 7-1 win over Lake Stevens

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

LAKE STEVENS — After five straight non-league victories, the Monroe softball team took the first step in its Wesco 4A schedule on Tuesday afternoon and it was a good one.

Behind the pitching of freshman standout McKenzie Schulz and an impressive offensive display, the visiting Bearcats remained perfect through six games with a 7-1 victory over Lake Stevens. Schulz, a talented left-hander, scattered five hits, striking out five, and Monroe combined 10 hits with four Vikings errors to score in five of seven innings.

“This was a good way to start league play,” said Bearcats coach Mike Birch. With 10 returning varsity players and five promising freshmen, “this could be one of the better teams we’ve had in about 10 years,” he added. “And I’m looking for good things.”

Schulz allowed just three base runners and one hit through five

scoreless innings before losing some of her command over the final two innings. The Vikings scored once in the sixth and had the bases loaded in the seventh before Schulz retired the final two hitters, the last on a three-pitch strikeout.

“She had kind of an off night,” Birch said. “But she’s a remarkable young lady. She’s going to be a workhorse for us the bulk of the season. ... I don’t know if she was necessarily tired (in the late innings). She’s a freshman, so she’s young. But mechanically, she’s got all the weapons.”

Backing Schulz was an offense that produced multiple base runners in all but two innings. First baseman Michaela Johnson led the way, going 3-for-3 with a walk, and getting one of her two RBI with a solo home run to left field in the second inning. Catcher Morgan Allen was 2-for-4 with two runs scored, and it took a terrific diving catch of a line drive by Lake Stevens second baseman See BEARCATS, Page C3

M’s Seager, Morrison working on beating shifts Bunting is sometimes the right call, and sometime not, but learning to hit the ball the other way is the most effective way to defeat the strategy Mariners trade pitcher >> The Erasmo Ramirez to Tampa Bay

Seattle third baseman Kyle Seager warms up during batting practice before a spring training game against Kansas City on March 26.

PEORIA, Ariz. — Admit it.

You’ve watched a game where a club overshifts its defensive alignment against left-handed hitters, based on spray charts and other telling sabermetric data, and wondered: Why doesn’t the guy just bunt the ball down the third-base line?

It’s an easy single and — if the batter places the ball correctly and can run a little bit — it might even be a double.

Let’s put the question to third baseman Kyle Seager who, other than first baseman Logan Morrison, probably saw more defensive shifts last season than any other Seattle Mariner.

College basketball, C4

in exchange for left-handed pitcher Mike Montgomery, C2

Is the bunt a good play when the defense overshifts?

“It’s definitely a good play sometimes,” Seager agreed, “if the situation dictates it. If there is somebody on first base and nobody out, maybe it’s a good call.”

You can almost hear the “but” coming, can’t you? We’ll get to that in a minute.

First, though, understand that defensive shifts, like them or not, are a proliferating reality in baseball — up more than 500 percent over the last three seasons and still spiking skyward.

New commissioner Rob Manfred recently raised the possibility of banning shifts that position three infielders on one side of second base. The idea gained only limited traction, but pointed to a concern within the game.

Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon pushed Seager and Morrison, a year ago, to adjust their approach in an effort to defeat the strategy. Not by bunting necessarily but by hitting the ball more to the opposite field.

“When a team shifts its defense on you,” McClendon (in effect) taunted, “they’re telling you that you’re not a good enough hitter to adjust.”

The Mariners traded pitcher Erasmo Ramirez to the Rays for minor-league left-hander Mike Montgomery.

M’s trade Ramirez to Rays

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

PEORIA, Ariz. — The Seattle Mariners solved their Erasmo Ramirez dilemma Tuesday night by trading the right-handed pitcher to Tampa Bay for left-handed pitcher Mike Montgomery.

Ramirez, 24, is out of options, but the Mariners had no place for him on their 25-man roster.

That meant they either had to trade him or risk losing him on a waiver claim.

In contrast, Montgomery, 25, has options and is likely to start the season at Triple-A Tacoma.

He was 10-5 with a 4.29 ERA last season in 25 starts at TripleA Durham.

Montgomery was a supplemental first-round pick by Kansas City in 2008 and once viewed as that organization’s top pitching prospect. Baseball America ranked him among the game’s top-40 prospects from 2010-12.

He has yet to reach that potential and has never pitched in the big leagues. Montgomery is 42-47 with a 4.28 ERA in seven minor-league seasons.

The Rays acquired Montgomery as part of a seven-player

trade on Dec. 9, 2012 that also netted outfielder Wil Myers and pitcher Jake Odorizzi and sent pitchers James Shields and Wade Davis to the Royals.

Ramirez opened last season with the Mariners but spent much of the year at Tacoma.

He is 7-12 with a 4.62 ERA in 47 games, including 35 starts, over parts of three big-league seasons.

Roster moves The Mariners cleaned up their Rule XX (B) free agents by releasing left-handed pitcher Joe Saunders and outfielders Endy Chavez and Franklin Gutierrez from their minor-league contracts.

Saunders and Gutierrez then signed new minor-league deals that are not bound by the Rule XX (B) provisions. Chavez opted to become a free agent.

Right-handed pitcher Kevin Correia, who also qualified, was released Monday and chose to become a free agent.

The Rule XX (B) provision covers major-league free agents who sign minor-league contracts. They must be informed, five days prior to the start of the season, whether they will make the major-league roster.

If a qualifying player does not make the roster, he must be released or paid a $100,000 retention bonus and receive a June 1 opt-out clause in his minor-league contract.

Clubs often release such players and attempt to re-sign them to new

minor-league deals that aren’t covered by the provision.

Smith update Right fielder Seth Smith got another day to rest his sore ankle, but manager Lloyd McClendon insisted it’s not a long-term issue.

“He could have played (Monday),” McClendon said. “I didn’t want to take a chance. He rolled his ankle sliding into home. It was a little swollen to the bottom of the foot.

“He wasn’t going to play today (against a left-hander), so I thought it just made sense to give him two more days off.”

Zunino’s workload Mike Zunino started again Tuesday — he leads all catchers this spring in innings played — but is slotted for a day off Wednesday when the Mariners play the Chicago White Sox at Peoria Stadium.

“There were some things we wanted him to do this spring,” McClendon said. “Taking charge of the staff. Running that staff and getting them to do the things that he needs them to do in order to be successful.

“I think it’s taken the whole six weeks to get that out of the staff.

That’s why he’s played as much as he’s played.”

Zunino contends he enjoys the heavy workload.

“I’ve been in there six, seven innings,” he said, “but it’s been multiple days, and I think that’s the best thing because, for me, it’s about getting that recovery back. Getting your body to the condition to play the next day.”

And now?

“They both worked on it quite a bit,” McClendon said.

“I’d say Seager is very successful. Mo is getting better at it.”

Seager often cites teammate Robinson Cano as a model in his own efforts to become proficient at driving the ball to all fields.

“I had a coach who once said you can manipulate your swing for a month,” Seager said.

“But if you are in a good physical position, it’ll last for the whole season. You’ll be able to do it night in and night out.

“That’s why Cano can do it every day. It isn’t just that he hits when his body is fresh. He hits when his body is tired. He hits all of the time because he’s in a good, repeatable position.

That’s the ultimate goal.

“When I’m hitting like Cano, I’ll be satisfied.”

Morrison, in contrast, is the sort of dead-pull hitter for whom shifts are designed to eat alive. His mindset, however, remains that he can beat the

shift if he gets his pitch.

Example: A year ago, the Mariners won a game when Morrison beat a shift by slicing the ball into left field. Asked afterward whether that proved the value of using the entire field, he shook his head wistfully and admitted: “Man...I was trying to pull that ball.”

Even McClendon said he wants Morrison to pull the ball when he gets a pitch he’s capable of pulling. For a simple reason: Morrison’s power is to the right side.

“You’ve got to be careful with (making adjustments),” McClendon warned. “I know when we put a shift on Big Papi (Boston DH David Ortiz), heck, I’m hoping he bunts. That’s one of the reasons we do it.

“I’d rather see (Ortiz) get a bunt single than hit the ball out of the ballpark. That’s the one thing you have to be careful about; it’s one thing to change your approach, but don’t change how you hit or who you are.”

Ask Morrison if he ever considers bunting against overshifted defenses, and he says he tried it “a couple of times” last season.

“If they’re all the way over

there (to the right side),” he said, “and the shortstop is deep, I’ll bunt. But what happens is they’ll bring the shortstop in on the grass and, you know, I’m kind of slow. I can’t bunt then.”

Seager added: “If there’s two outs and nobody on, me putting a bunt down doesn’t necessarily help the team. It would be more advantageous to try to hit a double and get into scoring position.

“Me not being a big burner, a big base-stealing guy, me bunting for a single doesn’t help in those situations.”

McClendon believes Seager will see fewer overshifted defenses this season because of his growing ability to hit the ball, with power, to the left side.

“Seager became very adept at it (last year),” McClendon said, “and we’ll see how it goes with Morrison this year. Again, he’s working on it.”

Don’t look for many bunts, though.

“If they shift you, and they pitch you in,” Morrison said, “you’re going to pull the ball, more than likely, right? At the end of the day, hit it hard somewhere and who cares where it goes?

“You don’t have a joystick in there.”

Florida State’s Winston believes he’s best player in draft Associated Press TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Jameis Winston dodged brooms and blocking pads. He threw over outstretched arms and tennis rackets. He completed passes from the pocket and on the run.

Even when it was time for a brief break during Florida State’s pro day Tuesday, Winston grabbed the water bottles and served his teammates.

No doubt, Winston put on quite a show for NFL coaches, general managers and scouts.

The Seminoles star threw passes for nearly an hour,

demonstrating arm strength, accuracy and stamina while drawing cheers from the hundreds on hand.

Winston sent a strong message — literally — that he should be the first player taken in next month’s draft. Asked why Tampa Bay, which has the No. 1 pick, should select him, Winston didn’t hesitate to respond.

“Because I’m the best player in this draft,” he said.

It would be hard to argue after his 55-minute passing session Tuesday that only solidified what NFL teams have seen from Winston the last two years as Florida

State’s starter.

Winston completed 91 of 102 passes, with at least half of the incompletions being drops. Of course, the routes didn’t include defenders, but executives were more concerned with little details that typically go unnoticed to untrained eyes.

“It was very good, excellent.

He had a great day,” Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht said. “He threw a full nine innings. It looked good.”

Licht, part of a big Bucs contingent that included coach Lovie Smith and offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter, said Winston’s

conditioning, leadership and arm strength stood out at Florida State’s indoor practice facility.

“That was pretty impressive,” he said. “I’m sure it’s bittersweet for the coaching staff here at Florida State to watch him today.”

Ravens sign QB Schaub OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Baltimore Ravens signed quarterback Matt Schaub to a one-year contract.

The 33-year-old Schaub is expected to contend for backup to Joe Flacco.

Schaub played with Oakland last season, throwing only 10 passes as a backup. He began his career in Atlanta in 2004 before playing seven seasons for Houston from 2007 through 2013.

The facts

Felix Hernandez closed his spring Tuesday with a thud by allowing seven runs and five hits in 12⁄3 innings against Cleveland in Goodyear. That makes 14 runs and 13 hits in 121⁄3 innings over four starts.

Next outing: Monday in the season opener against the Los Angeles Angels at Safeco Field. Hernandez is 5-0 with a 1.52 ERA in seven career starts on opening day. That guy was nowhere in sight Tuesday.

“Mechanically was the problem,” Hernandez said. “I was up. I was up the entire game. ... I was flying open. I was falling down. I was not able to get my balance.”

Manager Lloyd McClendon attributed Hernandez’s problem to a flawed workout routine.

“The trainers will tell you that his workout, for some reason, didn’t coincide with his start,” McClendon said. “He did too much on his legs. He didn’t have his legs out there. There was no gathering or turning.”

Hernandez’s problems came after the Mariners staked him to an early lead.

Rickie Weeks opened the game with a homer to center. Robinson Cano lined a one-out double that hopped the centerfield wall, and Nelson Cruz followed with a two-run bomb to center. That quickly, it was 3-0.

Hernandez gave it all back, and more, in the bottom of the inning. Two singles, a walk and a Brandon Moss homer produced four runs. After the Mariners tied the game in the second, Hernandez gave up three more runs.

Play of the game

McClendon was ejected in the fourth inning by umpire Alan Porter after protesting what he viewed as Porter’s lack of action after Indians starter Bruce Chen threw two pitches behind Weeks.

Chen’s pitches were in apparent retaliation for Hernandez hitting Michael Brantley in the second inning.

Porter issued a warning to Chen after the second pitch. McClendon’s argument was the first pitch should have prompted the warning; and that even if it didn’t, the second one should have cause Chen to be ejected.

Instead, it was McClendon who got ejected.

Plus

Weeks and Cruz hit homers. ... Cano, Cruz and Austin Jackson each had two hits. ... Tom Wilhelmsen worked 11⁄3 scoreless innings. ... Rookie lefty Tyler Olson pitched two more scoreless innings. He had not allowed an earned run in 122⁄3 innings in 10 outings.

Minus

Other than Hernandez? ... Weeks played first base for the first time and mishandled his first chance, a grounder

by Carlos Santana in the first inning.

Weeks recovered and recorded the out, but a runner scored from third.

Quotable

Asked whether he had any concerns regarding Hernandez’s outing, McClendon said, “I have no concerns at all.”

Extra innings

The loss dropped the Mariners to 11-16-2 and, with just three games remaining, clinched their first losing Cactus League record since going 12-18-2 in 2010. They were 18-12-3 in 2014.

Up next

The Mariners play the Chicago White Sox at 1:05 p.m. Wednesday in their final day game at Peoria Stadium. James Paxton will start against veteran right-hander Brad Penny.

Payton Beaver to deny Allen a third hit.

Monroe’s big inning was the fifth as the Bearcats put together three singles, a walk, an infield out and a wild pitch to scored three runs.

A year ago, the Bearcats had their season end at the district tournament, and that disappointment has the team hungry for a better finish this season, Allen said.

“This year we all know that we’ll go farther,” she said. “I think we’re capable of whatever we want.

Whatever goal we set for ourselves we can totally meet if we push ourselves

SEATTLE — The awards keep coming for Lynnwood junior Mikayla Pivec, who was named the Associated Press girls basketball 3A State Player of the Year on Tuesday.

Pivec helped lead Lynnwood to its first ever girls basketball state championship in March and was named tournament MVP after her 31 point, 17 rebound performance in a 54-42 win over Cleveland in the championship game. Since winning the championship, Pivec was named The Herald’s AllArea Player of the Year and the Washington State Gatorade Player of the Year in girls basketball. She averaged 20.4 points and 12.4 rebounds per game this season for the Royals.

King’s senior guard Savanna Hanson also won a player of the year award, taking the honor for the 1A girls.

Snohomish senior Collin Kane was among five players to earn honorable mention in 4A boys basketball, as was Marysville Pilchuck senior Michael Painter in 3A and Shorecrest junior Drew Magaoay in 2A. King’s sophomore Corey Kispert was named to the 1A first-team.

On the girls side, Snohomish junior Madeline Smith was named to the 4A honorable mention list, Pivec was named to the 3A first-team. Her teammate Jordyn Edwards earned honorable mention, as did Arlington senior Jessica Ludwig. Hanson was named to the 1A first-team.

Those awards went to Rainier Beach senior Dejounte Murray (3A boys) and Gonzaga Prep senior Laura Stockton (4A girls), who were the players of the year in their classifications.

The 4A boys player of the year was Federal Way’s Viont’e Daniels, the 2A boys player of the year was SedroWoolley’s Jackson Price and the 1A boys winner was Zillah’s Justin Dunsmore. Zach Walton of Morton-White Pass (2B) and Trazil Lane of Lummi (1B) were the small school award winners.

Monroe girls basketball coach Chalfant resigns

By Kevin Brown Herald Writer

When Matt Chalfant took over as the girls basketball coach at Monroe High School three years ago, he planned to stay just long enough to stabilize a struggling program.

With that goal accomplished, Chalfant stepped down Monday.

“My true passion lies in coaching boys basketball and I knew that my time with the girls would be short,” Chalfant wrote in his resignation letter to Monroe athletic director Mark Henderson, “but I also knew that I would not leave until a foundation was created where Monroe Girls Basketball could thrive for years to come.”

Chalfant took over as head coach in March of 2012 after three years as Monroe’s junior-varsity boys coach. He was the Bearcats’ fourth head coach in less than two years, including one who resigned midway through the 2011-12 season.

“I applied for the position (three) years ago

because I was tired of seeing the girls experience frustration and heartache year after year,” Chalfant wrote in his letter. “I firmly believe that a culture has been created and foundation has been laid where Monroe Girls Basketball will continue to thrive in my absence.”

In his first season, Chalfant guided Monroe to an 11-12 record and a berth in the district tournament. For his efforts, he was named coach of the year by the Snohomish County Women’s Basketball Officials Association. The Bearcats also qualified for the district playoffs in Chalfant’s second year.

This past season, the Bearcats were 18-8 and advanced to the regional round of the Class 4A state tournament. One of the highlights of Monroe’s season was a 53-42 win over No. 2-ranked Inglemoor on Dec. 27, the only regular-season loss of the year for the Vikings.

Henderson said the search for Chalfant’s replacement will begin “immediately.”

NASCAR penalizes Newman’s team for manipulating tires Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. — NASCAR levied harsh penalties against Ryan Newman’s race team Tuesday after determining Richard Childress Racing manipulated the tires Newman used at Auto Club Speedway in California.

There had been rampant speculation throughout the Sprint Cup garage that teams were drilling tiny holes in their tires to allow air to escape during a race.

The process is known as “bleeding tires” and NASCAR last week at Martinsville Speedway warned crew chiefs about the penalties that would be levied against any team caught.

Newman was one of four drivers to have his tires taken by NASCAR after the March 22 race at Fontana. The tires were sent for an independent inspection, and NASCAR said Tuesday that Newman’s tires were found to have violated a rule that “bars any modifications to the tire or wheel, including the valve stem hardware, that is used to release pressure.”

As a result, crew chief Luke Lambert was fined $125,000 and suspended for the next six races. The suspension also includes the All-Star race in May. Lambert was also placed on probation through the end of the year.

Tire technician James Bender and engineer Philip Surgen were also suspended six races and placed on probation

through Dec. 31.

Newman and car owner Childress were docked 75 points each. The penalty dropped Newman, runner-up to Kevin Harvick in last year’s championship finale, from sixth to 27th in the standings.

“NASCAR takes very seriously its responsibility to govern and regulate the rules of the sport in order to ensure competitive balance,” said Steve O’Donnell, NASCAR executive vice president. “We’ve been very clear that any modifications to race vehicle tires is an unacceptable practice and will not be tolerated.”

Torrey Galida, President of Richard Childress Racing, said the team was awaiting more information from NASCAR before deciding how to proceed.

“We understand the seriousness of the penalty. In fact, RCR has been one of the most outspoken opponents against ‘tire bleeding’ since the rumors began to surface last season,” Galida said in a statement. “Once NASCAR provides us with the specific details of the infraction we will conduct a further internal investigation, and evaluate our options for an appeal.”

NASCAR has been periodically doing random checks of tires since late last season, when rumors surfaced that Harvick’s team was bleeding tires to gain an edge. Harvick went on to win the championship, and NASCAR never revealed any infractions regarding the tires for Harvick or anyone else.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL | Roundup

Randle leads Stanford into NIT finals Associated Press NEW YORK — Chasson Randle had 24 points to become Stanford’s all-time leading scorer and carry the Cardinal to a 67-60 victory over Old Dominion in the NIT semifinals Tuesday.

Stanford blew a 21-point first-half lead but rallied behind its senior star, who played through foul trouble to make a string of big second-half shots.

Randle came in needing 11 points to break Todd Lichti’s record and has 2,350 for his career.

The Cardinal led 15-0 when Old Dominion finally scored its first points nearly five minutes in and were up 25-4 midway through the first half. But the deficit was just six at halftime after Richard Ross’ dunk with six seconds left.

The Monarchs (27-8) took their first lead on Ross’ layup with just over 11 minutes left. But a steal and a dunk in transition by Marcus Allen with less than eight minutes to go put Stanford up for good.

on and off the ice and still maintain sound defensive positioning. That extra distance is why it’s called the long line change.

But while every rink in the league with the benches on the same side of the ice has the long change in the second period, in Spokane Arena the long change comes in the first and third periods. It’s been that way since before Everett entered the league in 2003.

“It’s the only rink in all of hockey, anywhere in the world, that does that. The only one,” Everett coach Kevin Constantine said. “In every level of hockey, in every country of hockey, it’s the only one.

It’s just silly. There are so many solutions you could do that could appease whatever reasons.”

Why does Spokane Arena break tradition and have the long change twice? The reasons are nebulous. Online research uncovered no documentation explaining the phenomenon. Media inquiries sent to the Chiefs asking about the subject went unanswered.

Legend has it that when the current Chiefs locker room was installed, it was moved to the east side of the building, which is the end the Chiefs shot at twice in previous seasons. The suites — including the owner’s box — and the majority of the season-ticket holders were located in the east end, allowing them a better view of goals scored by Spokane. The Chiefs allegedly wanted to keep their bench in line with their locker room, but still shoot twice toward the suites and season-ticket holders.

Their solution was the two long line changes. Constantine, who exhibited his displeasure during Everett’s first ever game at Spokane in 2003 by switching his goalies at every whistle during the first period, would have found a different solution.

“You can put the players on the other bench,” Constantine suggested. “There’s the comment that the way the locker rooms are set up you couldn’t do that.

But in Kamloops the locker rooms are set where you have to cross underneath the stands like you would (in Spokane).

The Cardinal (23-13) face Miami in Thursday’s NIT championship game.

Miami 60, Temple 57 NEW YORK — Sheldon McClellan scored 12 of his 16 points in the second half, and shorthanded Miami rallied to beat Temple to reach the NIT championship game.

Tennessee hires ex-Texas coach Barnes KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Just two days after leaving Texas, Rick Barnes has landed at Tennessee.

Tennessee announced the hiring, calling Barnes an “elite basketball coach in every respect.” The agreement is for six years at $2.25 million annually.

Barnes succeeds Donnie Tyndall, who was fired Friday after one season amid an NCAA investigation of his two years at Southern Mississippi.

Barnes went 402-180 at Texas and reached the NCAA Tournament in 16 of his 17 seasons, including a Final Four appearance in 2003.

“Rick brings an extremely impressive track record of excellence, as well as much-needed stability, to our men’s basketball program,” Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart said in a statement. “This is an exciting day for our Tennessee family.”

That’s a pretty easy solution, put a security guard or have one team go out first.

“I made my protest 12 years ago, but everybody’s been aware of it for 20 years and no one seems to want to do anything about it, so what are you going to do?,” Constantine asked. “You play with the rules put in front of you.”

Do the two long line changes represent added home-ice advantage for Spokane?

After all, it’s not like the visiting team is the only one that has to deal with the situation, as both teams are constrained by the unusual configuration. A breakdown of home/road splits since Everett entered the season shows the Chiefs’ home-ice advantage (.096) is actually less than the Tips’ (.104).

However, a team that plays with more long changes is inevitably going to prepare more for the long change.

“They have their strategies of how to catch teams on line changes,” Everett captain Kohl Bauml said. “They’re quick moving the puck up, they get their goalie involved a lot at home. They have an advantage just from doing it more often.

But at the same time it’s just two second periods and a normal period. We’re not worried about it, but we’re aware of it.”

There’s no doubt Spokane had a homeice advantage against Everett in recent years. Between March 14, 2010 and March 12, 2014, the Tips lost 18 straight games at Spokane Arena. Everett was 7-11 at home against the Chiefs during that stretch.

But ever since breaking the curse by winning 4-2 at Spokane late last season, Everett has fared better at Spokane Arena as the Tips have won four of the past five road meetings with the Chiefs.

“Maybe a couple goals here or there (during the losing streak) were caused by (the extra long change),” Bauml, who experienced defeat the first 13 times he visited Spokane Arena, said. “I don’t think they ever cost us games. The days of the Spokane curse are behind us now, this year we did pretty well there. It’s nice to know going in there we’ve won a couple games.”

But to continue that success into the postseason, the Tips will have to master the long line change.

“It is unfortunate, but it happened,” said Klinsmann, who played for Inter Milan. He said he reminded his players at halftime “never joke with an Italian referee.”

Swiss pressure paid off in the 80th when substitute Valentin Stocker scored from just two yards past goalkeeper William Yarbrough.

The U.S. has now been outscored 12-1 in the second half of matches since the World Cup. “It might be a theme but it’s not a problem,” Klinsmann said. “Overall it was a very good team performance. I saw a lot of, lot of good stuff from the players.”

A leveler had seemed increasingly inevitable, and five minutes earlier another Swiss substitute, Pajtim Kasami, header over an open goal from close range.

The U.S. also escaped in the 79th when an attempted clearance by defender John Brooks rolled just wide of his own goal.

Stocker struck when the ball dropped to his feet after two U.S. defenders challenged for a left-wing cross, leaving him unmarked in front of goal.

The Americans never threatened Switzerland’s goal after Altidore’s rush of blood midway through the second half, first fouling left-back Francois Moubandje.

“I want to apologize to our fans and my teammates,” Altidore said in a statement issued through the U.S. Soccer Federation. “Emotion got the best of me and I put our team in a tough position. That’s not the type of role model I want to be. All credit to the boys for grinding it out and earning a positive result.”

All the Americans’ best work involved Alejandro Bedoya exploiting Moubandje, playing just his third international match.

Twice Bedoya crossed invitingly from the right, but Gyasi Zardes blazed a left-foot volley high and wide in the 15th and Michael Bradley fired well over in the 26th when the Nantes winger cut the ball back from the byline.

Bedoya drew a rare save from Swiss goalkeeper Roman Buerki in the 32nd, darting in front of Moubandje to loop a header toward goal from Shea’s bouncing cross.

SWEET SPOT

CRISTINA FLETES-BOUTTE / ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH

Greek leek patties

Start a new Passover tradition with leek patties Passover is the Jewish holiday most centered around food.

Family and friends get together around the dinner table to tell the story of their ancestors’ escape from slavery in Egypt more than 3,000 years ago. A number of foods with symbolic meanings are always present at the meals, including parsley dipped in saltwater to represent the tears shed, bitter herbs (usually horseradish) to represent the bitterness of the years of slavery and matzo as a reminder of the bread that did not have time to rise before the Jews fled for Israel.

After a long ceremony, partly involving these and other foods, dinner is served. And it is always a feast, not the least because everyone is hungry after sitting around so long before the dinner begins.

It is what is expected. It is what is comfortable.

But there is no reason you can’t change things around a little. You could even start a new tradition.

On Passover, only one rule must be followed: In memory of the ancestors whose bread was baked before rising, no flour that could rise if mixed with water may be served. In practical terms, that means no wheat products or anything made with barley, oats, rye or spelt. Some Orthodox Jews also forgo beans, peas, rice and other foods that could be used to make bread.

So, while keeping this one rule in mind, you can break the chains of the culinary past and make the trek to the promised land of new culinary delights.

I turned to Joan Nathan, who is one of the country’s foremost authorities on Jewish cooking. In her “Jewish Holiday Cookbook,” I found a recipe for Greek Leek Patties, which are sort of like potato pancakes with leeks in them. And potatoes mixed with leeks is one of those perfect food combinations, like chocolate and bananas.

I cooked the patties the way Nathan recommends, but too many of them fell apart in the pan.

So I added just enough matzo meal to hold together the mashed potatoes mixed with leeks, eggs and cheese. With the patties actually holding together, I fried them and they were amazing. They are also a dish that is worth serving any time of the year.

Greek leek patties 2 pounds leeks 2 large boiling potatoes (not russets), peeled 3 large eggs, beaten 3 tablespoons matzo meal 1⁄2 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese Salt and pepper Vegetable oil for frying Wash the leeks carefully, slicing them vertically to remove all of the grit. Dice the white base and the palest green part of the leaves. Parboil in salted water for 5 minutes. Drain.

Boil the potatoes until they are soft.

Drain and cool. Using a potato masher or food processor, mash the potatoes. Add the leeks, blending them in well. Add the eggs, matzo meal, cheese and salt and pepper to taste. Form this mixture into 12 patties.

Pour oil 1⁄2-inch deep in a heavy frying pan. When the oil reaches 375 degrees, drop the patties into the oil, 2 or 3 per batch. Fry until golden brown on each side. Drain on paper towels.

Makes 12 servings.

Oh Sweet Chocolate owner Angie Carozzo is surrounded by reflections on glass when she peeks into a display case filled with gourmet chocolates at her brand new chocolate and coffee place across the street from the Shack Art Center on Hoyt Avenue in Everett.

The tempering is a complex process to lock together and crystallize the three or four fatty acids in the cocoa butter for stability. It is tricky because of the differing melting temperatures.

Oh Sweet Chocolate shop opens on Hoyt Avenue

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

EVERETT — Angie Carozzo fell in love with food as a girl growing up in Michigan.

“As soon as I could walk into the kitchen, my mother had me

making cookies,” she said.

Now 40-some years later, Carozzo is the owner of the new Oh Sweet Chocolate shop across the street from the Schack Art Center on Hoyt Avenue, between Wall Street and Hewitt Avenue.

Oh Sweet, which also serves

Everett’s Bargreen’s coffee, opened on Valentine’s Day. “We already have regular customers,” Carozzo said. “We love being across the street from the Schack. It’s a great neighborhood. We hope people will start stopping by after dinner for

espresso and chocolate.”

As a child, Carozzo took cake decorating classes, was given some of the cooking duties at home and, as soon as she could, was working in restaurants, even See SWEET, Page D2

Lavender dark chocolate truffles ⁄4 cup heavy cream 1 tablespoon dried lavender 5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, softened 1⁄4 cup whole milk, in case needed 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted Bring the cream to a simmer in a small pot. Remove from the heat, add the lavender, cover and steep for 10 minutes. Uncover, bring to a simmer again, remove from heat, cover and let steep for another 10 minutes. Repeat one more time. Steeping three times with the lavender will provide the intense flavor.

Strain the lavender from the cream and measure again. Add whole milk, if needed, to bring the amount back to the original 1⁄4 cup.

Heat the cream to a simmer again, 1

add the chocolate and remove from heat. With a rubber or silicone spatula stir the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted.

Stir in the softened butter until an elastic core develops and the resulting ganache has a smooth, shiny texture.

Put the ganache in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap directly on the surface of the ganache. Refrigerate until somewhat firm, about two hours.

To make the truffles, use a melonballer to scoop out about 1 tablespoon of ganache, place in a deep dish with the powdered sugar and roll back and forth with two forks to coat. You can do this by hand, but you must have cold hands and wear gloves in order to keep the chocolate from melting.

Store in a cool, dry place until ready to serve.

Makes about 20 truffles.

Samples on a silvery tray include a lavender truffle (top) a chamomile citrus milk chocolate (left) and a Bergamot dark chocolate truffle.

Get cracking: Easter tradition full of memories

rowing up in the Roberts family, an egg cracking contest was always the highlight of our Easter dinner festivities. Once everyone had selected a colored egg from the basket, arms and an occasional egg shell would fly as egg-wielding opponents squared off.

The objective of the game was to come through with knuckles and hard-cooked egg unscathed after knocking the egg’s pointy

end against the pointy end of your opposition’s egg. After several elimination rounds, two finalists would shoot it out for the chocolate bunny.

It was good fun, particularly the year my brother and I caught our great uncle Ron cheating by slipping his thumb in front of his egg just before impact.

These days, the Roberts’ eggcracking contest is as lively as ever, even though the youngest

members of the family have grown and moved away. Good friends who gather at our table have enthusiastically embraced the after-dinner tradition of vying for a chocolate bunny.

Next comes the egg-crackingby-proxy round: names of absent family and friends who have participated in past competitions are written on scraps of paper See EASTER, Page D2

When onions and carrots are added, they pick up the browned bits of flavor left from the chicken, and as they soften and release their moisture, a flavorful sauce begins to develop.

Zucchini, haricots verts, garlic and thyme are added next, along with tomato paste, broth and hearty white beans. The whole saucy mixture simmers until the vegetables are just tender. In minutes, you have a sumptuous, colorful, herb-infused stew of French-Mediterranean goodness for your chicken to rest on. A sprinkle of fresh basil ribbons brings it all together for a dish that can help keep you from unraveling, even on the busiest weeknights.

“I love creative cooking and chemistry, and chocolates are the perfect combination,” Carozzo said When the economy tanked seven years ago, Carozzo put off the dream of opening her own chocolate shop. She even contemplated going to nursing school.

But a friend, wowed by some chocolate she made at home, convinced Carozzo to give her dream a shot.

“I realized I still had a huge passion for it,” Carozzo said. “And by then the doors were wide open.”

The hat is passed at the table and everyone extracts a name (or two). Some absent participants have even contacted us prior to the event with color specifications of their proxy egg.

We’ve kept my father’s name in the competition, even though we lost him in the autumn of 2012.

Having won more times than lost over the years, he was the Zen Master of egg cracking.

He had great technique.

So after the proxy round is complete, the winner pairs off with the grand champion, Willie, for an even larger chocolate treat.

My mother says that our contest can be traced by to Coolidge elementary school days where my brother and I were first introduced to it. In other parts of the world it goes by a variety of names, including egg tapping, egg fighting, egg knocking, egg pacqueing, egg picking and egg jarping. In English folk lore, the game has variously been known as “shackling,” “jarping,” or “dumping.”

Egg-cracking contest aside, most of us have plenty of hard-cooked eggs to contend with this time of year. Hopefully, the following recipes will help. Of course, keep in mind that some eggs will be in no condition to eat and should be promptly tossed. Only work with leftover eggs that have been refrigerated except for the period — which shouldn’t exceed two hours — when they were in hiding, competition, or snuggled in someone’s Easter basket.

The Bergamot, now her signature chocolate, is in honor of her mother.

“My mom died a few years ago. When I was a girl, she loved putting on tea parties. So the Bergamot, used in Earl Grey tea, is for her,” Carozzo said.

“When I was in culinary

school, I called her and said, ‘Mom, you knew everything about cooking, but you didn’t realize it.’ My Italian family had a lot of good cooks. I can’t wait to make my great grandma’s pistachio nuggets.”

Easter is a big holiday for chocolate, Carozzo said.

You won’t find chocolate bunnies at Oh Sweet, but many of the shop’s truffles will provide a great end to an Easter Sunday dinner.

A

fulfilling meal you can make in one pan in less than 30 minutes is the ultimate modern-day survival tool.

It’s just the thing to jumpstart your engine as it sputters and stalls around 5 p.m., when those first thoughts of dinner hit and you realize you need to get something on the table soon.

Knowing you can whip up a meal with little cleanup can tip the scales toward cooking instead of grabbing takeout; over time, that could make a real difference in your wellbeing, because homemade food typically is considerably more healthful — with fewer calories, less sodium and saturated fat and more nutrients — than prepared foods from a store or restaurant.

I think everyone should have at least five rush-hour dinner recipes in their repertoire, and you can count this one as a keeper.

Wow! The Easter Bunny left us a pretty big egg, Beeper!

YIKES! Th-that egg can TALK!

Hello? Are you my mommy?

Of course I can! My name is Egg-bert.

Where is my mommy?

Buzz, let’s go ask Mother Hen if this is one of her eggs.

That’s an eggs-ellent idea, Beeper!

“Scientist Fun”

If you were a scientist and could invent something to help the Easter Bunny, what would it be? Explain how it would work.

St. Mary Magdalen

Mrs. Stemerick • 3rd Grade I would make a machine to deliver the eggs that are painted around the world with the push of a button.

-Andrea I would put a leg on the egg and it will hide by itself, and the Easter bunny doesn’t have to hide the egg. I would also put hands on the egg so the Easter bunny would just need to paint the first egg, and the first egg would paint the second egg and the second would paint the third egg and so on. It is the good for the Easter bunny because it saves energy by not having to hop to hide the egg, and not hurt his arm by painting the egg.

-Darin I would give the Easter Bunny a robot piggy and it would help it deliver 100,000,000,000,000,000 eggs. In 2 or 3 minutes all the children of God will all get their eggs on Easter. The Easter bunny will have a 24 hour break from painting the eggs and you don’t need to feed the robot or wash or give him/her a drink. That’s how I would help the Easter Bunny.

-Bella

Horizon Elementary Are you my mother?

No dear, all my eggs have hatched.

Perhaps you belong to Mrs. Duck?

No, that isn’t one of my eggs.

But don’t look so sad. Chickens and ducks aren’t the ONLY animals that lay eggs, you know!

?

Mrs. Caione • 4th Grade

I will make him rocket eggs so he can throw it in the window and the egg has a rocket and it goes to the place he wants it to go. Usually if he goes into the person’s house and he breaks something he has to waste his bunny bucks. With this invention he only breaks the window of the house. That is what I’d make for the Easter Bunny.

-Mark If I could invent something to help the Easter Bunny I would invent a jetpack so that he could deliver eggs faster.

-Christina If a scientist made something for the Easter Bunny it would be rocket boots so that he can get places faster.

-Elijah I would give the Easter Bunny an egg launcher and Easter Bunny wings.

GRANDPARENTING

Hard to say how kids pick their friends Dear Grandparenting: I notice that my two grandchildren have very different styles when it comes to their circle of friends. When my granddaughter, Tessa, gets in deep with some new girlfriend, she shuts everything else out. The two of them become inseparable. My grandson, Bobby, is just the opposite. He runs with a pack of boys around his age.

Instead of one best friend, he has 10 good friends.

When I was their age, I didn’t have all that many good friends.

I went through spells where I felt lonely but I didn’t feel sorry for myself and I turned out OK. I learned to like myself for myself by myself. I do enjoy imagining what my grandchildren will be like when they are grown. With all the time and effort my grandchildren put into their friends, I can’t help but wonder how it will affect them later in life? Are my grandchildren typical teens or are they overly invested in their friends? It seems to leave little time for anyone else, including their grandmother.

— Sunny, Royersford, Pennsylvania Dear Sunny: Your provocative letter raises some interesting points. We’ll begin by considering whether your grandchildren are “typical teens.” In a word, no — their behavior generally coincides with what we observe, and is supported by research undertaken by the National Institute of Mental Health. According to the study, girls are hard-wired to engage in intense emotional relationships with their BFF’s (that’s best friends forever in the shorthand kids use today), while boys are more predisposed toward group dynamics and competition with other boys.

Assessing the long-term impact of your grandchildren’s friends is much more speculative. It goes without saying the choices adolescent and teenage grandchildren make regarding friends can have lasting repercussions. They can serve as positive examples or provide emotional comfort, but the ones you hear about often lead friends astray. When peer pressure becomes more compelling than

family influence, grandchildren can engage in risky, impulsive behaviors they’re uncomfortable with.

But we’re reluctant to engage in too much prognostication — to do so artfully requires information unavailable to the mortal man.

Life’s journey is a mystery. Have you ever attended a high school or college class reunion 20 or 30 years after graduation? Inevitably, several former class kingpins — the ones who won the popularity contests — show up looking ordinary and tired, and a couple of the loners who were social misfits are now positively magnetic. Go figure.

Grand Remark Of The Week Margaret Light from Ocala, Florida, was upset after granddaughter Lenore called her husband Bud to try and comfort him about the loss of his beloved dog, Spike.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa,” Lenore told Bud. “The way things are going, you’ll probably be with Spike again before you know it!”

Bud was more philosophical.

“Sometimes small children are very blunt.”

Time to celebrate big tonsils, biting gators Dear Readers: In honor of April Fools’ Day, I’ll share a couple of offbeat letters I’ve received from readers who have attempted to pull my proverbial leg. Enjoy!

Dear Abby: I’m writing to brag about my boyfriend.

He’s a semi-professional alligator wrestler and super brave. It’s a tough job and it takes him away from home a lot. It’s also a very dangerous job. He often comes home with bite marks all over his neck and shoulders, and scratches on his back.

Want to know something weird about alligators?

Their natural odor smells a lot like perfume. When my beau gets back from a tournament, he often reeks of it. The first time I smelled it on him, I was worried. But after he explained it to me, it made perfect sense. (Just another one of life’s coincidences, I guess.)

We’re so happy together.

We have four beautiful children, and he promises we’ll get married soon — right after the next tournament. I know you get lots of letters about bad relationships, so I thought I’d let you hear about a good one. — Gator Girl In Florida Dear Gator Girl: That’s a good one, all right. You may have thought you smelled perfume, but I smell a rat. Be glad your boyfriend doesn’t wrestle cougars because I hear they wear indelible lipstick.

Dear Abby: A teacher at our high school took some time off to get a breast augmentation. Before she left, she told the class she was having her tonsils out.

When she returned to the classroom with a larger chest, one of the students cracked, “Nice tonsils!” Of course, the class roared.

Is it when the two parties involved do the mattress mambo, their first kiss, or is it sooner? — Clueless Wife In Canada Dear Clueless: A love affair involves more than having sex. An extramarital affair begins as soon as a man or woman starts sneaking around and lying to his or her mate.

Dear Abby: Please settle an argument my ex-husband and I still have. Over the course of our marriage, we had problems. One night we had a nasty spat, after which he moved out and never returned. He claims I should have asked him to move back in. My response has always been that he chose to leave, so I shouldn’t have had to beg him to come back. Your opinion, please? — Wondering In Crystal Lake, Ill. Dear Wondering: In my opinion, you and your ex-husband should stop arguing because after your divorce became final, the question became moot.

Spirited women; two beloved movies

By Betsy Sharkey Los Angeles Times

There is a very specific portrait of a lady that has long enthralled Hollywood. A young woman of modest means falls for an older man of wealth.

Both the woman and the man are transformed by love, and though it might seem indelicate to mention, the money factors in. A significant improvement in social station for the woman comes with the commitment.

That scenario is the spine of “The Sound of Music,” which is being celebrated this month for hitting the 50-year mark and remaining such an enduring favorite.

It is also the narrative blueprint for “Pretty Woman,” whose 25 years are being so fondly remembered at the moment, too. I can’t help but think of “My Fair Lady” in that vein as well, now 51 and still aging gracefully.

The scenes and the settings change from film to film, but that central core is constant.

If you ask fans of this year’s milestone movies, “The Sound of Music” is beloved for its heart and its courage, “Pretty Woman” for its heart and its humor.

One story is born of a harsh reality, the other a popular fantasy. But the action in both is driven by the sheer verve of a strong, spirited, independent young woman.

Julie Andrews’ performance in the musical drama, which was based on the real-life Von Trapp family, earned the actress an Oscar nomination. The

financial guy (played by Jason Alexander) — he regrets it ever after.

Despite the transactional nature that brings both couples together, both relationships are ultimately forged by love and respect.

The love that blooms in both ends in marriage.

It’s not a question for the Von Trapps. And certainly that’s what “Pretty Woman’s” ending suggests would have been the very next chapter. (Screenwriter J.F. Lawton’s recent revelations that his original had a darker ending plays better as a Trivial Pursuit question than it would have on-screen, given the teasing, playful tone the film adopted.)

Despite very different circumstances defining Maria’s and Vivian’s lives, there is a striking similarity to their character arcs.

Both are essentially left to navigate life and figure out their fates on their own.

The men become their proving ground. In the push and pull, the agreements and disagreements, the women’s sense of self as individuals and as part of a unit begins to be more sharply defined.

The resistance and the redefining of a person always make fascinating watching. That Maria and Vivian are literally bubbling over with good humor and kindness in ways that captivated moviegoers when the films were released, and have kept them coming back year after year to watch them again, is due to the magnetic appeal of the actresses. Their strength is just as intoxicating. Though the endings might seem like a fairy tale, and the men definitely had the money and position, the women held the power — and the star roles.

Writing Prompt Cedar Wood Elementary Miss Jesica Thomson Class A problem with kids these days is that they play videogames and don’t play outside much.

Video Games and T.V. might exercise the eyes, but do they exercise the brain, the muscles, the arms? The answer to that is obviously no. If you’re a kid that likes to run around and exercise, you’re definitely in the lower percent of todays kids. If you’re a kid that likes to sit around and play video games, you’re in the vast majority of todays kids. I’m not trying to be rude, but you need to face facts. Sitting on the floor does not help keep you stay healthy. So, if you aren’t that healthy

you need to start exercising ASAP. The best ways to have a healthy mind and body are by running around and exercising your muscles by lifting weights, doing pushups, running around. But exercising definitely does not include lying on the couch watching T.V. or playing Video Games. ~ Sean, Grade 5

Whenever I exercise, or take a walk, I think about what good I’m doing for my body. If I was asked how I keep my mind and body healthy, I would say that keeping active with healthy food and venting out stress would be all I would need to do. Every time I exercise, it burns off calories and builds muscles that help me to

How do you keep your mind and body healthy? stay in shape. Even riding my bike along my favorite trail every week will be a big benefit to me. Just stay active as much as you can! Making the right choices in eating is also important to keep myself healthy. Without a healthy body, it would be hard to keep a healthy mind. This is why I do regular exercise to boost my energy and vent off stress so that I can keep my clear mind. Staying fit with regular exercise and healthy diet, as well as keeping a healthy mind is a very important factor in my life. It’s simple. All I need to do is to do a bit

of daily(or weekly) exercise, and keep my mind safe from harmful stress. ~ Ryan, Grade 5 Are you someone who likes to keep your mind and body healthy, both physically and mentally? Do you want to be healthy but also want a helpful guide on how?

You are one lucky fellow because today I am going to be explaining how you can have a healthy mind and body. To have a healthy mind, you have to actually do healthy things. A step you could take to have a healthier mind is reading books rather than watching TV or playing with your phone. Admit it, you spend a whole lot of time on your phone tapping away on the screen than doing something like reading. Reading a book is better for your brain because it makes you think about what’s going to happen next which causes your brain to think. Book or device. The answer is quite simple.

You want a healthy mind, choose the book. Going on to having a healthy body. Having a healthy body doesn’t mean having a six pack or having huge muscles on your arms. It means simple things, such as eating your whole plate, having a good breakfast, or moving your body for at least

HeraldNet.com/NIE

30 minutes everyday.

Some advice that might help you is to sleep, at the latest 11:00. Studies show that people who sleep later get tired more easily or wake up later. So, all in all the key to having a simple body is listening to all the things mommy told you. Sleep early, eat well, and eat your whole plate. Having a healthy mind and body. Here’s the thing about your whole body. Whatever goes into you, ends up coming back out. If you watch a TV show where there’s a lot of bad words, you might get influenced by it and start saying bad words yourself. If you watch people with a bad behavior, that bad behavior might grow in you. So, in order to have a healthy mind AND body, use your self-control and determination. And yes, I am being cheesy. Overall, having a healthy mind and body doesn’t come in an instant. But, if you work on it for a while, before you even notice it you will have a healthier mind as well as a healthy body. Let’s work on this together, because I can’t say for myself that I’m a pro at this! ~ Phoebe, Grade 5 There are several ways to keep your mind and body healthy. My personal favorites are watching informational videos from the Khan Academy and Brain Games. Watching these videos while exercising, helps your body and mind. I also punch

my punching bag, which helps me exercise and concentrate. When finding time is the problem, I bounce on a ball or ride a recumbent bike while watching the videos. Because, if you don’t keep your mind and body healthy, you will not have enough energy to do basic tasks or learn so that you can increase your knowledge. This helps you get good grades and a good job. ~ Brennan, Grade 5 I think that keeping a healthy mind and body is important. Physically healthy people have more energy to work on things they care about, therefore enjoy their life to the fullest. In contrast, physically unhealthy people may be disturbed by their health issues distracting them from doing things that would make them happy. ~ Yesong, Grade 5 I keep a healthy mind and body by watching what goes in and comes out of my body. I don’t eat a lot of candy or junk food, and I avoid visiting websites and watching videos in which I know that there will be swearing. I take walks around my neighborhood and climb trees if the weather is right. I go swimming with my family every Friday and Sunday. I also keep fit by jump roping and kicking a soccer ball around. ~ Morgan, Grade 5 CONTINUED ON PAGE 8 >>

Writing Prompt CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 >>

I think that for a child to have a healthy mind and body is to have nice thoughts, guarding their eyes and ears of negativity and bad thing that they should not see, and to have a healthy diet.

First of all, nice thoughts.

Instead of thinking of bad things that could happen or scary things, kids should be thinking what good could happen.

For example, if someone is about to go up in a baseball game, they could be thinking, I am going to fail. I can NOT do this. Instead they should think, I am going to rock!

I CAN do this! The next thing is, guarding your eyes and ears of negativity and bad things. If

someone says something mean or something that could hurt you mentally, it will affect you. Another thing is, if you watch a movie that you shouldn’t be watching. That could stay with you all your life. Last but certainly not least, eating healthy.

One thing to have a healthy mind and body is to have a healthy diet.

You should eat a cup of fruit and vegetables a day. If you eat junk food almost all the time, that can lead to obesity. To have a healthy mind and body, you will need to have kind thought, guard your eyes and ears of negativity and things you shouldn’t see or hear and have a healthy diet. These reasons aren’t the only things you can do to be

healthy. There are many more reasons. ~ Ari, Grade 5 One way kids can keep their minds and bodies healthy is that they must not experiment with alcohol and drugs. Drugs and alcohol are becoming more common in middle and high schools.

And as the years pass by, I predict that some drugs will become legalized. In high school many kids can fall victims to drugs and become addicted to them which can ruin their lives. Alcohol can result in the same effect. Students can get drunk and that can lead to horrible decision making. Kids should keep away from alcohol and substance abuse to keep their minds and

bodies healthy. ~ Ian, Grade 5 One problem with kids these days is that they don’t keep healthy minds and bodies. I personally have many different ways to keep a healthy mind and body, including exercising every night, going to bed early, having a good breakfast, and playing outside often.

Instead of playing video games before bed, I do 50 push-ups. Instead of staying up past midnight, I go to sleep by 10:00. Instead of having donuts for breakfast, I have nutritious cereal. Instead of staying inside to watch T.V, I play outside with my friends. Exercise, rest, nutrition, and the outdoors are a few ideas to keep a healthy mind and body that I have found to work and so will you! ~ Jake S., Grade 5 One way to keep my mind and body healthy is by doing extra math after school. When you’re sitting and watching television or playing video games, get up and go for a run, jump rope, or kick a soccer ball around.

Before playing, make sure your homework is finished. Another way to stay healthy is by running for fifteen minutes in the morning. ~ Elizabeth, Grade 5

Kaylee, Grade 5, Madison Elementary

grow. A healthy body includes eating vegetables and exercising at least 60 minutes a day for the every day. It not that hard to maintain a healthy body all you have to do is exercise and tune out bad thoughts about drugs and other bad things that could slow you down down and hurt you.

You should always limit yourself to candy and soda and other sugary items that can give you diabetes and other health problems. ~ Koen, Grade 5 Keeping a healthy mind and body is an important factor in a kids early years. Keeping your body and mind healthy is a simple thing to do.

Keeping screen time limited is just one of the simple factors. Exercise is a big factor of keeping a healthy mind & body.

Getting outside for 60 minutes a day, is all you need for a healthy body.

60 minutes is only an hour, we have 24 hours to use in a day, that’s 1/24 of the day. As simple as it is to exercise, it only takes 60 minutes to keep a healthy mind. Eating healthy is important to keep yourself healthy.

You just have to eat ½ a day. If you eat unhealthy foods, you could end up not feeling good going to school every, and when you pay for your food, the lunch lady would be suspicious. Our school makes you eat a half cup of f/v every day. Sleep can keep you going every

day. If you just get 8-10 hours a night you will have enough energy to get through the day, without any sugar. Sleeping is a comfortable way to end the day, and get lots of rest along with that. In the end, keeping a healthy mind & body is a simple thing to do. Just follow the directions in every day, and you will have a healthy mind & body every day. ~ Carson, Grade 5 I exercise 5 days out of 7 days a week. I eat healthy meals a day. This helps me to be healthy because it is good for me. This also helps keep my mind healthy. I want to continuing to have balanced meals and exercise most of the time even when I am an adult. ~ Logan J., Grade 5 Keeping a healthy mind and body can be hard, especially during fifth grade. I have been going to Cedar Wood Elementary for five years, and have been in the HC program for four of those years.

This can be stressful and I will tell you how to keep your cool. The first way to keep cool is, everyday, have 1 or 2 hours of me time. This can help you stay calm with homework and family. The second way is to make sure you eat fruit and veggies everyday. It helps keep you energetic and fun to be with. The last way is to make sure you get plenty CONTINUED ON PAGE 9 >>

of sleep. It helps alot. It prevents you from being crabby and grumpy. With these tips, I bet you will have a healthy mind and body all through fifth grade. ~ Amelia, Grade 5 A healthy mind and body is when a person goes to bed early, and gets 12 hours of sleep. They also eat a good breakfast, and a nutritious lunch and a green dinner. Going to school challenges your brain to do beater. If no one went to school than no one person would be educated which may leave them with no job which makes no money.

Education is very important. As I said before people have lost jobs, homes, children even their sanity.

Some people want to do jobs that require not a lot of work, I know I do, but it is natural to want that. I mean people might want to work at K.F.C because it won’t get you stressed.

I mean not all people are this way but you must push yourself. School will help, there you have many friends that help you strive to be beater.

Family that have challenging jobs that they like they will help you get better in school. ~ Logan, Grade 5 To have a healthy mind and body you must eat two small meals a day, eat fruit, drink milk, do homework as priority then play, play [soccer] outside for 30 minutes or more a day,

and exercise everyday. It is as simple as that and I do not need to include more information, but I will include more tedious information. The reason you must eat two small meals a day is that if you have more you will be fat, and if you have less, you will be underweight.

The reason you must eat fruit is that fruit tastes good, and surprisingly enough, it is healthy. The reason you must drink milk is that you will get tall if you drink milk. The reason you must have homework as priority is because your mum says so. The reason you must play soccer (nothing else works) for 30 minutes minimum is because you do that to burn extra calories and stay healthy and have fun. ~ Sam, Grade 5 Have you ever thought about how to keep a healthy mind & body? I have. One way to keep your body healthy, is to get 8-10 hours of sleep every night. Since I go to bed at 9:00, and wake up at 7:00, I get 10 hours of sleep. Another way to keep your body healthy, is to eat nutritious and healthy foods. Eating healthy will not only keep your body healthy, but it will help your mind too.

You know how you while eating junk food it tastes good, but you feel sick afterwards? With healthy foods, you may not think they taste that great, but you will feel fresh and fueled after eating them.

Writing Prompt

I think that it is very important for kids to keep a healthy mind and body.

Do you? ~ Leah, Grade 5 If you ask me: ‘How do you keep your mind and body healthy?’ I would reply: “It is very simple.”

And, it is very simple. Your health is the very bottom layer for your body. Think of it as a pyramid. If the very bottom layer of the pyramid collapses, the rest of the pyramid will crumble. So does your health. Keep my suggestions in mind, and you will have a healthy body in no time. The most important thing that will keep your mind and body healthy is your eating habits. My best suggestion is that you should eat foods with less fat, and eat at least 2 cups of fruits and veggies- add some protein in there, and you are set. Also, sleep at least 8 hours, but I recommend 9. Next, exercising is very important for your body.

Exercise 60-80 minutes per day- and also, get some sunshine. That is very important, because your body needs Vitamin D, and sunlight has a lot of it. Adding on, when you exercise, spend time outside, not just indoors, because that will benefit your body more. Last but not least, stay hydrated and take multivitamins.

Drink at least 10 cups of water a day, and take multivitamins to supply you with vitamins and minerals. Great!! ~ Edward, Grade 5

5th graders keep their minds and bodies clean by exercising both of them. Most people at my age have already decided that, no, they aren’t going to get over weight, no, they aren’t going to stop learning anytime soon, and, yes, they will try to be healthy as they can.

Some things that you can do to have a healthy body is to get some exercise.

Go out and ride a bike, play some double-dutch, or just go jogging. All of these help you stay fit, and have fun. It’s easy once you pry your eyes away from the TV. You can keep your mind clean, by doing things like, word searches, crossword puzzles, and even puzzles. Math problems have the same effect. So do brain teasers like,” One guardian will tell you only truth, the other, only lies, which one guards the prize.” They all work just as well. There are millions of things you can do to have a healthy mind and a healthy body. The problem is making sure that the mind and the body are balanced. If you only have the brains or just the brawn, it will be like being disabled. Be healthy and smart! ~ Kathryn, Grade 5 Have you ever thought how you can keep yourself healthy? Do you want to live a longer life than if you don’t eat healthy or exercise a lot? Well, you can eat healthy, think positive, and try your best so that you barely

have any stress when you work. First of all, you can keep yourself healthy by eating healthy. You can eat lettuce, avocados, and other plants. If you eat these foods, you can eat lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, and many other plants. Although some people may think that it is really gross to eat a plants, but it is actually really good so that you can keep yourself healthy.

Another thing that you can do to keep yourself healthy is to exercise.

Walking and running are a very common and very good exercise to keep yourself really healthy.

Many people who are overweight should try to break your eating habits so that you can lose weight. Another great exercise is to swim. Swimming is a very good exercise because you have to use a lot of muscles to swim. Last but not least, you can just keep yourself happy while you study. The reason why you should keep yourself healthy is because of stress. Stress isn’t very good for your health. You can get exhausted to easily and you might faint.

So that is why you have to keep yourself healthy by having fun a lot and especially while you are studying. In conclusion, you can keep yourself healthy by eating healthy, you can exercise to keep yourself healthy and last but not least keep yourself happy while you study. ~ Andrew, Grade 5

I think the key to your health is daily eating and exercise that all the 5th grade is doing at Cedar Wood Elementary School.

The School’s PE Teacher has encouraged us to exercise 60+ minutes a day so we all don’t become overweight and obese.

If we were not horizontally challenged than we couldn’t play football because we would be too large and slow to run fast. Your physical health is important to you. But your mental health is just as important. That is why, every day, my teacher lets us speak the words of life which are all positive and not negative. This is important because this helps us stay positive and prevent us from feeling negative. ~ GM, Grade 5 View Ridge Elementary School Mrs. Bobbie George’s Class Do you want a healthy mind and a healthy body? Here’s how to do it: 1. You need a strong heart, so exercise. 2.

Challenge yourself to do more each commercial. ~ Matthew, Grade 2 Healthy families eat good foods. What kinds of healthy food does your family like to eat? We like to eat apples, grapes, bananas, pear, or oranges.

They don’t eat too much candy or desserts either. ~ Aileen, Grade 2 Fruit, vegetables, vitamins and minerals are not just good, but are good for your body.

Exercising helps your mind and helps you to be strong and healthy. Don’t play video games and watch videos! Get up and help yourself to fruit and veggies! You got to get fit and have fun! Work out and don’t stop! You won’t be healthy if you play video games. If you eat unhealthy food, then you won’t live a healthy life! ~ Kaeden, Grade 2
