Courthouse plan reached The compromise between Everett and the county adds more than 300 parking spaces that weren’t there before. By Noah Haglund Herald Writer
EVERETT — A tentative compromise on parking spots emerged Friday for building a
new Snohomish County courthouse in downtown Everett, after time-consuming and expensive delays. Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson and County Executive John
Lovick said they had reached an agreement to supply more than 300 parking spaces not included in the county’s original building plans. The resolution should keep the courthouse within budget and satisfy the city’s needs, they said. “We have to keep this building at $162 million and we believe
this will do that,” Lovick said Friday. Lovick was optimistic the agreement would succeed and credited staff members for working hard to make it happen. It’s up to the County Council to approve any deal. See PLAN, back page, this section

DARRINGTON — The walls are painted, the menus are printed and the cooking has commenced. Bradley’s Diner opened Friday morning in the former Glacier Peak Cafe, 1215 Highway 530. It’s been about three years since there’s been a full-service restaurant in town. There are
several other places to eat, but none with a sit-down breakfast, lunch and dinner menu. Owners Michelle and Doug Bradley plan to have the diner open seven days a week. Current hours are 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. It likely will be open later in the summer. The Bradleys spent about two and a half months fixing

OLYMPIA — Time is running out for backers of a bill tying Boeing Co. tax breaks to the number of people the company employs in Washington. Sponsored by an Everett lawmaker, the bill has been in the House Finance Committee for nearly a month with no sign that the chairman is going to bring it up for a vote. But Rep. June Robinson, D-Everett, brushed aside insinuations that it is dead, saying Friday that it is still in play as the Legislature enters the last three weeks of a 105-day session. “We’re still working on getting to a ‘yes,’” Robinson said. “There’s interest in moving it. I’m definitely not done working it.” House Bill 2147 would amend a law passed in a November 2013 special session to help land Boeing’s 777X program in Everett. That law extended a suite of tax incentives to 2040 in exchange for the aerospace giant agreeing to assemble its newest jetliner in the state. The extension will save Boeing an estimated $8.7 billion in tax payments to the state through 2040. Robinson’s bill would alter the 2013 law by linking those incentives with the size of Boeing’s workforce. Should the workforce shrink — and it has since the extension was enacted — the tax break would shrink, too. “If the jobs stay, the tax breaks stay, and if the jobs leave, the tax break incrementally goes away. I think that is fair,” Robinson said at a March 13 public hearing in the Finance Committee. Rep. Reuven Carlyle, D-Seattle, the committee chairman, said in a recent interview that he won’t bring the bill up for a vote without Republican support. “The only chance it has is if there is a bipartisan consensus,” Carlyle said. “There are some Republicans interested in this, and we are trying to figure out

if the total company employment reaches 5,000 or more below the baseline. At the end of 2014, the company had 81,497 employees, according to figures provided by committee staff. Boeing argues that the bill’s supporters focus only on what’s occurred in the past 12 months. The company has added 30,000 jobs in Washington since 2003, half of which are held by

Michelle Bradley also makes blackberry and apple pies that are locally famous, longtime employee and friend P.J. Wieferich said. “There’s healthy options as well as your comfort foods,” Bradley said. It’s a different selection than the grub at the Bradleys’ other Darrington eatery. The couple has run the Burger Barn at 1020 Emens Ave. for about seven years. They plan to keep it open in the spring and summer and make the diner their year-round business. The Burger Barn has weathered some hard times for small businesses, and Michelle Bradley learned a secret to success that she’s bringing with her to the diner. “People are it. Period,”

she said. “That’s how I stay afloat.” There are about 12 employees at the diner and four at the Burger Barn, but that could change based on how busy they get. The diner seats 82 people. “I’m hoping to fill it up all the time,” she said. The diner has been a labor of love for the Bradleys and their employees, Wieferich said. Along with her job at the diner and Burger Barn, Wieferich is a paraeducator at the Darrington School District. Her after-school job is her social time. “Being a teacher is quite stressful, so I come to work to de-stress,” she said. “The restaurant is always the hub. The information station, I call it.” A wood bench just inside the front door of the diner is carved with the word “Darrington” surrounded by.... trees and cabins, and doors leading to the dining area have glass windows etched with angels. There are few other adornments. “My walls are bare because I’m keeping them for people who want to show off their art,” Michelle

On Friday, the legislative and political director for the Machinists sounded upbeat about the chances of getting the bill to the floor for a full vote in the House. “While the budget has been taking up most of the oxygen,” this week “is our opportunity to make a final

Though business is likely to peak during the

Monroe hospital says no cuts in services By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer
MONROE — The state Auditor’s Office suggests that Monroe’s hospital consider cutting services to improve its financial situation, but the hospital’s chief executive says no such changes are planned. The suggestion to make cuts came in a so-called management letter to the public hospital district dated March 17. The hospital, which for years has been known as Valley General Hospital, changed its name last month to EvergreenHealth Monroe, the
final step in a business agreement to make the hospital part of Kirkland-based EvergreenHealth. The auditor’s letter notes that the hospital has had financial losses dating back to 2010, with the biggest operating loss, $6.8 million, in 2013. The following year, the losses were cut to $443,426 out of a budget of nearly $39 million. The Auditor’s Office called that change a substantial improvement over the previous year. Nevertheless, it recommended that the hospital district “make necessary cuts to expenditures and/or services” to strengthen its
financial footing. Eric Jensen, the hospital’s chief executive, said no cuts in services are planned, in part due to the changes the hospital is undergoing. Voters in the public hospital district approved a tax increase in 2013, but the money from that increase didn’t come to the hospital until 2014, he said, and that is one of the factors behind the hospital’s financial improvement. In addition, Kirkland’s Fairfax Hospital is scheduled to open a 34-bed psychiatric unit in the Monroe hospital by the end of
this year. “We’re excited about that,” Jensen said. “There’s a real need for in-patient mental health focused on geriatric patients.” Fairfax will lease space from the hospital, paying about $500,000 a year. Fairfax also will contract for services such as housekeeping, laboratory and respiratory services and medical imaging, all of which will help improve the hospital’s finances, Jensen said. Following the hospital’s March 2 affiliation with EvergreenHealth, “we’ll continue to identify some opportunities to reduce costs,” he said.
Jensen said he considers the hospital’s finances stabilized. “The hospital is not in financial crisis any more,” he said. Services offered at the Monroe hospital have expanded over the past year, among them an outpatient pulmonary rehabilitation program and another for patients with blood clots or blood disorders. EvergreenHealth has announced plans to recruit four primary-care physicians to Monroe over the next year, Jensen said, as well as a physician specializing in obstetrics and an orthopedic surgeon.

n insurance company poll claims Northwest drivers are particularly in love with bumper stickers, with 1 in 4 of us using our vehicle as our own personal pep rally (or soapbox, as the case may be). Driving around Snohomish County, you will see a lot of 12th Fan shout-outs. Others like to cheer their college alma maters, or the colleges they’re now sending checks to for their kids. Certainly there are plenty of political rants to go around. There are fish emblems, both without and with feet, and stickers calling for everyone to “coexist.” I drove behind a beat-up little pickup on Everett Avenue whose driver might see stickers as an alternative to Bondo. (A favorite from that menagerie: “If ignorance is bliss, why aren’t more people happy?”) There are as many variations on the stick-figure family decals as there are minivans. Snohomish County is home to a lot of zombies. But there are also Chewbacca fathers and Autobot mothers. And then there’s the one I saw in a parking lot between a construction site and the Imagine Children’s Museum in Everett — of a tyrannosaurus Rex chomping a fleeing clan of humans (“Your stick figure family WAS DELICIOUS”). Those are all well and good. But one of the best rear-end displays has got to be Chuck Johnston’s 1980s-era Jeep Cherokee. The vehicle is slathered with stickers, decals — and one bright green Hulk head. And there are still enough nooks and crannies for Johnston to keep adding more. “My granddaughter calls it the clown car,” Johnston said. “My wife hates it.”

It’s a program that recognizes youth. I had to do 400 hours of community service. I had a whole bunch of projects and got my friends involved to

The proposed conservation includes the VanderVoet Farm, “a beloved and iconic landscape on Whidbey Island” that is the “scenic backdrop to the historic and popular Blue Fox Drive-in theater and is a much viewed pastoral entryway to Oak Harbor,” according to the application for Conservation Futures funds. Powell said that while the funding they’ve secured is mainly for conservation efforts — such as for farmland, wildlife and aquifer protection — it can have ancillary benefits as well. Commissioner Rick Hannold, who campaigned on pushing economic development for the county, said conserving the farmlands at Monroe Landing would provide the buffer for the nearby airport.

fully functioning again and keeping new development from surrounding it will prevent future “heartburn” about the noise. “What you’re doing is saying we can save the rural character but it’s a reality that life there has to be jobs for people,” Hannold said. “It’s thinking forward.” Last week, Island County commissioners agreed at work session to pay out $610,000 from the Conservation Futures Fund to the Land Trust to acquire conservation easements on 267 acres of farmland and 52 acres of forest habitat. A final vote on the funding will be held at a future Tuesday meeting. This money was originally earmarked in November. The project protects the 319 acres while keeping it as productive working farms, according to county documents. The purchase of these easements would connect two isolated county-owned properties and provide a trail easement for the future. The Conservation Futures funds are being

While the process has been moving forward slowly over the last couple of years, there are still steps to be taken. Powell said the property owners in question are interested in selling the development rights but an agreement has to be made. “Before we can move forward to protect these properties, we will make a fair market value offer to the owners, based on appraisals, which are, right now, being independently reviewed and approved,” Powell said. “At that point, it is up to the owners to decide to accept the offer or not. This is all about private property rights and willing landowners. It is critical that the proposal works for the private landowners.” Janis Reid: 360-675-6611; jreid@whidbeynewsgroup. com

Art Johnson of Everett is a Vietnam veteran and turned the entire tailgate of his Dodge Ram pickäup into a poignant reminder of his friends who did not return from that conflict: “Some gave and some gave all.” There are plenty of us who choose to say nothing at all, of course, and we don’t even drive Rabbits. Driving around the corner the other day, I bumped (not literally) into a man from Bothell who doesn’t care for
bumper stickers much but was driving his wife’s minivan bedecked with them for a mechanic appointment. (One of her stickers: “Want to see God? Keep texting while you drive.”) Remember Chuck Johnston’s Jeep? It’s the only vehicle in the Johnston household to get such treatment. The three other vehicles they own are sticker-free. “(The Jeep) is kind of my emergency vehicle. So basically it just sits in the basement and collects bumper stickers,” Johnston said. Johnston said he sees others push political agendas on their bumpers. But he aims for laughs. “Trust Me, I’m a Doctor.” “Caution! Driver not wearing underwear.” “Grateful I’m Not Dead.” “Please Don’t Hit Me.” “I always read bumper stickers. You can tell a lot about people with bumper stickers. It says a lot about me. But I keep it funny,” Johnston said. “You can’t take it serious.” Have a question? Email me at streetsmarts@ heraldnet.com. Please include your first and last name and city of residence.

Man arrested after shot fired at EvCC Herald staff EVERETT — Police arrested a man who allegedly fired at least one gunshot on Everett Community College’s main campus Saturday morning. The shot was fired
around 8 a.m. near Jackson Center, the event center in the middle of the campus. No one was hurt. It appeared that no one else was near the building when the man fired, and no property damage had
been discovered, according to the college. Police arrested an adult male at about 8:20 a.m., said Officer Aaron Snell, a spokesman for the Everett Police Department. It was unclear Sunday morning what the motive
Largely smooth sailing for San Juan ferry reservations
was for firing the shot, or whether the suspect had ties to the college as a student or staff member. “We’re still working on it,” Snell said. The college promised to work closely with police on the investigation.
Associated Press ANACORTES — Washington State Ferries recently began a reservation system to manage congestion on vessels between Anacortes and the San Juan Islands. While there have been some complaints, the Skagit Valley Herald reported local residents said the three-tier reservation system that was implemented Dec. 2 is better than waiting for hours to get on a boat. Under the three-tier system, 30 percent of the spots open to reservations are available two months before the scheduled sailing, another 30 percent are released two weeks in advance and 30 percent are available two
Northshore Squadron awarded for excellence Herald staff BOTHELL — The Northshore Squadron of the Civil Air Patrol’s Washington Wing has received a fourth consecutive Aerospace Education Excellence Award. Aerospace education is one of the Civil Air Patrol’s
three missions. The other two are cadet training and emergency services, including search-andrescue flights. First organized during World War II, the patrol became an auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force after the war. The Aerospace Education Excellence Award,
created in 2009, is given to squadrons that conduct aerospace-themed classes for students and a field education experience, such as touring an airport control tower, said Carl Lindberg, director of aerospace education for the Washington Wing. He is presenting the award to the squadron in
Bothell on Tuesday. “It is rare for any squadron to have completed more than two (aerospace education) programs within that six year period,” he said. Only two of Washington’s 27 squadrons have received four such awards — Northshore and Yakima.
days in advance. The last 10 percent are available for standby. Jim Corenman helped develop the new system over a two-year period as the chair for the ferry advisory committee and as a member of the reservation partnership group. He said he’s heard a variety of opinions from the islanders, ranging from those who are concerned about booking a ferry during the summer when tourism peaks to those who are happy with the system. The committee looked at issues that could arise with a reservation system and wanted to make sure boats didn’t book up completely months in advance. That is how it came up with the three tiers.
Pot trimmers use tiny scissors, eye big careers Associated Press VANCOUVER, Wash. — Washington’s marijuana business has created a legal occupation that offers career opportunities for bud trimmers. “I’ve done everything from pumping gas to remodeling houses, but I think there’s longevity in this,” bud trimmer Kurt Vermillion, 32, told The Columbian. “I think there’s lots of growing room in this industry.” Bud trimmers make between $12 and $15 an hour and use small scissors to trim away leaves and other things from marijuana buds. Most trimmers work on about a pound to
a pound and a half of marijuana per day. Experienced workers can move up to gardeners or concentrate makers and make $50,000 to $90,000 a year. For Julie Whittaker, 37, who started trimming buds in November, the job turned out to be less stressful than her former work in the banking software industry. “I’ve been learning my way as I go,” she said. “I’m intrigued by this whole industry. It’s a big shift for me, and honestly I find it to be better regulated than even my old career in banking.” Vermillion and Whittaker work at Cedar Creek Cannabis, where Mark
Michaelson, head of operations, is eyeing ways to hold onto workers. The company has 14. “We want to work on employee retention,” he said. “Eventually we’ll have health and dental insurance and full benefits for them, too.” Clark County has eight growers that have been approved by the Liquor Control Board, and five stores have opened in Clark County so far and two more are planning to open within two months. Before the legalization of marijuana, bud trimmers migrated from job to job and were paid in cash by the pound and risked arrest. Now, bud trimmers
typically make an hourly wage, though some are paid by the pound. “I think what happens is people think in this industry, people are just hanging out and maybe even smoking,” said Brittny Houghton, 32, whose family owns Cedar Creek Cannabis. “But that’s not what we do. It’s a real job, it’s 9 to 5, you have to be on time, you don’t have to be a smoker, and the quality of the work is important.” At CannaMan Farms, another marijuana business, owner Brian Stroh said trimmers come from a variety of backgrounds. “It’s a business that people who work hard can move up in,” he said.

Council made wage theft — the intentional withholding of pay — a gross misdemeanor punishable by up to a year in jail and a $5,000 fine. But officials said few workers have made complaints under the law. In December the Seattle Police Department and the Labor Department’s Wage and Hour Division entered into a formal agreement to coordinate enforcement activities and help each other with enforcement of wage laws. They also plan to cooperate when it comes to sharing training materials and providing workers and employers with information about complying with wage laws. Seattle’s law will boost the city’s minimum wage to $15. The first increase took effect Wednesday, raising the minimum pay for most workers to $11.
Scientists seek help to track rain on Olympic Peninsula The University of Washington said its scientists are seeking citizens’ help as it gears up for a major effort to measure rain and snowfall on the Olympic Peninsula next winter. Researchers plan to work on the ground to validate precipitation data made by satellites. NASA and others recently launched a core satellite designed to measure precipitation over the globe. The UW team is seeking help from residents, particularly from the Olympic Peninsula and Chehalis River basin, to help monitor precipitation.

Richland: $85K for florist who refused gay couple A florist in eastern Washington state fined $1,000 for refusing to sell a same-sex couple wedding flowers and also facing a consumerprotection lawsuit has netted more than $85,000 in a crowdfunding campaign. The Seattle Times reported that nearly half of the money on the gofundme.com page set up in February for 70-year-old Barronelle Stutzman came in the last several days. Supporters compare Stutzman’s benefit page to an Indiana pizza shop that raised more than $800,000 after closing when the owner said the shop wouldn’t cater a gay wedding. Stutzman, owner of Arlene’s Flowers and Gifts in Richland received the fine in Benton County Superior Court in March after refusing to serve a same-sex couple in 2013.

PORTLAND, Ore. — An adoptee facing deportation to his birth country has made his initial appearance before an immigration judge in Portland, Oregon. Adam Crapser came to the United States from South Korea when he was 3 years old, but his adoptive parents never sought citizenship for him. That made him eligible for deportation after he was later convicted of a felony.
Crapser told reporters after Thursday’s brief hearing that he’s done his time in prison, turned his life around and wants to stay in the only country he knows. Crapser turned 40 on Thursday. He says he’ll never survive in a country where he doesn’t speak the language, and he doesn’t want to be torn from his wife and children. Judge Michael Bennett set Crapser’s next court date for June 18.
trails along I-90 are seeing crowds they wouldn’t usually get until June. “Normally our field crews, we don’t bring them on until mid-April, or May first,” Johnson said. “We need them now. People are not hitting snow until they get to 5,000 feet, so they can get way up into the back country.” The Washington State Department of Transportation announced that Chinook Pass and Cayuse Pass reopened late Thursday afternoon, which will open access to the Pacific Crest Trail and hundreds of square miles of back country east of Mount Rainier that’s usually accessible at this time of year only by snowmobiles or snowshoes. “Historically, that’s the second-earliest for Cayuse and the earliest ever for Chinook, as far back as record-keeping goes,” said Tracy Swartout, acting superintendent at Mount Rainier National Park. Swartout said some trailheads and parking lots will be snow-free before the park’s water systems and wastewater treatment plants have been dewinterized, meaning visitors will find no drinkable water or working toilets.

Iraqis pray during the Palm Sunday service at the Lady Deliverance Church in Baghdad, Iraq, on Sunday. Christians across the world are celebrating Easter, commemorating the day followers believe Jesus was resurrected in Jerusalem over 2,000 years ago.
Special prayers held for the Christian victims of violence Associated Press Christians in the Holy Land and across the world are celebrating Easter, commemorating the day followers believe Jesus was resurrected in Jerusalem 2,000 years ago. The cavernous Holy Sepulcher church in Jerusalem was packed with worshippers Sunday. The site is where Christians believe Jesus was crucified, buried and resurrected. Later, a Mass was celebrated in Bethlehem’s Nativity Church, built atop the site where Christians believe Jesus was born. Catholics and others are celebrating Easter, whereas Orthodox Christians, who follow a different calendar, are marking Palm Sunday with processions. At the Vatican, Pope Francis delivered the traditional Urbi et Orbi (to the city and to the world) blessing at the end of Easter Sunday Mass in St. Peter’s Square — a sort of papal commentary on the
state of world affairs. He praised the framework nuclear agreement with Iran as an opportunity to make the world safer, while expressing deep concern about the bloodshed in Libya, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Nigeria and elsewhere. In Kenya, worshippers celebrated at the Our Lady of Consolation Church in Garissa — the same town where Islamic militants killed 148 people in an attack on Garissa University College on Thursday. According to witnesses and survivors, the gunmen singled out Christians to be killed. At churches throughout the United States, people celebrated. And while Easter Sunday Mass was said at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York, crowds strutted along Fifth Avenue for the annual Easter Parade. The tradition began in the 1880s as a strolling display of what prosperous New Yorkers wore to church.

World’s biggest, fastest particle collider restarts BASEL, Switzerland — The Large Hadron Collider restarted Sunday after a twoyears of work to make the biggest machine ever built even faster in the hope that it will unspin the secrets of the creation of the universe. Particles were pushed through the collider’s 17-mile tunnel for the first time since February 2013, said the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN). “There is great joy here,” CERN director general RolfDieter Heuer said at the control centre in Meyrin, near Geneva. “It came off brilliantly.” The collider, which is under the Swiss-French border, accelerates subatomic particles to nearly the speed of light and smashes them together with the aim of clarifying the theory of the Big Bang, believed to be the moment the universe sprang to life 14 billion years ago. The renovations at the collider have revved up the already record-breaking machine so the energy of its particle collisions will be
A Rolling Stone magazine article about an alleged rape on the University of Virginia campus was a “story of journalistic failure that was avoidable,” the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism said in a report published Sunday night. “The failure encompassed reporting, editing, editorial supervision and fact-checking,” said the report. Rolling Stone Managing Editor Will Dana said the magazine was officially retracting the story. Rolling Stone had asked for the independent review after numerous news media outlets found flaws with the November 2014 story titled “A Rape on Campus.”
experiments there showed that the Higgs boson particle is likely to exist. The particle is believed to be responsible for all mass in the universe. The Higgs boson, nicknamed the “God particle,” was the missing piece in the standard model of physics, which describes how nature’s smallest building blocks interact but could not previously explain why they have mass. It could also unlock other mysteries left unexplained by the standard model, including
dark matter, a form of invisible matter that is believed to make up most of the universe. CERN researchers said they hope the collider will provide the first concrete evidence for the existence of dark matter, as well as information about its composition. “The restart with notable higher energy opens up the chance to push forward into unexplored regions and to discover new physics phenomena like dark matter,” said Joachim Mnich, director of particle physics at Germany’s national research center that operates particle accelerators. “All particle physicists involved look towards Geneva with excitement.” Mnich and the 150 other researchers at his center are among the tens of thousands of scientists taking part worldwide in the CERN experiments. “We are all excited how quickly now after more than two years of construction that the first particle stream occurred successfully in the accelerator ring,” Heuer said. But he advised patience about when new discoveries might be announced. “I am very careful here” about predictions, he said.
One of the gunmen who slaughtered 148 people at a college in Kenya was identified Sunday as the lawschool-educated son of a Kenyan government official, underscoring the inroads Islamic extremists have made in recruiting young people to carry out attacks against their own country. Abdirahim Mohammed Abdullahi, who was killed by security forces Thursday along with the three other militants who stormed Garissa University College, was the son of a government chief in Mandera County, which borders Somalia. The chief had reported his son missing last year and feared he had gone to Somalia, Njoka said.

ARLINGTON — Tom Lane sounds like a relieved man. After more than 20 years, he’s finally getting to build his car dealership, Dwayne Lane’s Arlington Chevrolet, at Island Crossing north of Arlington. Construction started in February, but work became visible in the past few weeks. It is the site one of the most contested land-use battles ever in Snohomish County. Lane started the legal fight when he was 24. He’s 45 now. “I’ll be excited to focus on business and automobiles and leave all this land-use planning behind me,” Lane said. The $6.5 million, 35,000-square-foot dealership is expected to open either late summer or early fall. He’ll relocate his current dealership at 21015 Highway 9 in Arlington to the new one along I-5 just south of Highway 530. He plans to double the number of employees from 25 to 50. “What I’m really excited for is all of our employees,” Lane said. “We’ve promised and promised a better opportunity for them and their families. “To see this in the ground, to see it’s finally here, it’s like Charlie Brown finally got to kick the football.” Island Crossing is a triangular, 110-acre swath of land in north Arlington bordered to the west and north by the two highways. It was designated agricultural land in 1978. In 1995, city and county officials began a quest to re-designate the land a commercial corridor and to develop it as part of Arlington. The acreage has been the centerpiece of a contentious, convoluted land use battle ever since. Proponents touted the

promise of new tax revenue as a reason the land would be better suited to commercial development than farming. Opponents worried about the destruction of farmland and the threat of flooding in the area, which lies along the flood-prone
Stillaguamish River. Last fall, Lane reached a settlement with the Stillaguamish Flood Control District over Tom Lane whether the development could go forward. The parties signed the agreement on Halloween. As part of the effort to settle the dispute, Lane agreed to build a car lot designed so that, in the event of a flood, it would contribute minimal net rise in the water level on properties nearby or downstream. But the lawyer for the flood control district has his doubts about the project. He said if Lane’s consultants are wrong — and his project does cause waters to rise — it could flood I-5. “It’s still a bad idea, it’s a bad
idea to build in a flood plain,” Henry Lippek said. “For the last 50 years or so, federal, state and local agencies have tried to rein that in.” Lane contends that the fight was more about activists from King County wanting to impose their viewpoints in Snohomish County. Lane, whose father, Dwayne, started the business in 1954, owns three dealerships, one in Everett, one in Sedro-Wooley and the one in Arlington. He plans to build the new lot on 4.5 acres. He owns just 15 of the 110 acres of Island Crossing. There are 21 other property owners. “We were the only ones with concrete plans to do something,” Lane said. “The rest of the owners are now looking at doing something with their properties.” The flood control district will keep tabs on any new proposals, Lippek said.
“They’re going to monitor the planning process and ensure any other development also has zeroflood-rise impacts,” Lippek said. “If those expenditures are made to do that then at least some of the flood control district’s concerns would be alleviated.” It’s been an expensive, risky fight to be able to get to the point where construction can start, Lane said. Over the past 20 years, during the legal saga that went to the state Supreme Court, Lane figures he’s spent more than $1 million on legal fees, consultants and engineers. He’s just glad it’s behind him. “It’s a passionate subject for a lot of people and we were in the middle of some different idealogy,” Lane said. “We just had the steadfastness to keep through it and keep our heads up. We knew we were right. It’s unfortunate it took this long to prove it.”

Demand healthier options researchers sound the alarm, because too much sodium is associated with high blood pressure, heart attacks and stroke. And almost anything that isn’t fruit or vegetables has too much sodium. (Yes, it’s possible to have too little sodium in one’s diet, but it’s rare because most foods, including fruits and vegetables naturally contain some sodium.) The American Heart Association says people should aim to eat 2,300 milligrams of salt or less a day, (people with high blood pressure are advised to eat less than 1,500 mg of sodium a day) but almost no one hits that target, and that’s because processed food sold has so much sodium in it, researchers say, not because people use the salt shaker too much. Which makes added sodium exactly
like added sugar — unnecessary and harmful. Bread is a good example of the worst of both worlds: Full of added high fructose corn syrup and sodium. Researchers with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that bread is the single biggest source of sodium in the U.S. diet because people eat so much of it. An earlier CDC study this year found that more than 90 percent of children exceed the recommended sodium intake, setting them up for health problems before they even hit adolescence, never mind adulthood. For the kids, approximately 43 percent of sodium consumed came from pizza, yeast bread and rolls, cold cuts/cured meats, savory snacks (chips, pretzels, and popcorn), sandwiches, cheese, chicken patties,
nuggets and tenders, pasta mixed dishes, Mexican-mixed dishes and soups. This is why Michelle Obama has campaigned for healthier school lunches with less sodium, sugar and fat. Despite opposition from those who sell processed foods to schools, more kids are eating more fruits and vegetables, the USDA reports, 90 percent of schools report that they are successfully meeting the updated nutrition standards; school lunch revenue is up; and the program has not increased food waste. When consumers — not the government — demand less sodium in their food, manufacturers will respond. It certainly can’t hurt the bottom line to spend less on added sodium and/or sweeteners. Less is more, physically and economically.
And thank you for not discriminating against one state by over-reacting to its personal issue when 19 other states have similar laws. So thank you, Mayor Stephanson, for tending to the business for which you were elected, and not allowing yourself to be distracted by opportunities to further your own personal political agenda. Good job!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■EVERETT STATION
Shameful to not keep up building Regarding the article, “Travelers feel unsafe at Everett Station, report finds”: Everett’s “crown jewel” has become tarnished since its dedication about 14 years ago. We attended the dedication — such a splendid building for travelers. Amtrak and Greyhound Bus Lines moved from their sites in downtown Everett to the new station. Within weeks, Greyhound increased their ridership by 25 percent. After a couple of months, Christmas was celebrated at the station. Santa Claus and city officials road the train from Seattle to Everett. Children were everywhere. The Everett Chorus sang carols as they stood on the grand staircase. Then, the transit center became a magnet for the homeless, who had nowhere else to go. I attended a meeting about six months later — had to go to the restroom on the ground floor — went into a stall — then, backed out very hurriedly — the walls of the stall were plastered with excrement. Tax payers’ money and grants were used to build the transit center in a central location to service Amtrak, Greyhound Bus Lines, Sound Transit Trains and local/community transits with parking available for all riders. Now within less than 20 years, the Transit Station is looking like an “old, tarnished lady.” I blame this on mismanagement and lack of security. A window on the front has been broken for several months, years. It is plastered over with some board. My husband and I called about this — the manager said the windows were hard to replace. Shame on us for not taking care of this beautiful contribution from the citizens of Everett, the state and the federal government. M.J. Donovan-Creamer Everett

In my opinion, it’s time for the Seattle mayor and our state governor to restrict their attention to their own electorates and refrain from trying to convert others to all the liberal tolerances practiced here.

Everett rightly Boycott means minds own issues refusing business The way I understand it, the Seattle mayor and our state governor assume they have the right to refuse business with the state of Indiana because they disapprove of a policy by that state. Now isn’t that the same right that some small businesses of Indiana wish to have? It seems to me that this action may soon cause other states who may disapprove of all the liberality practiced here to refuse business with

Minority view is a bit different
It was both surprising and disappointing to read he article concerning the Monroe City Council decision regarding parking in downtown Monroe. (“Monroe ponders parallel parking.”) I attended that meeting and heard far more requests for no parallel parking from both merchants and local citizens. Also of note, at least three of the owners of businesses that serve food had no interest in widening the sidewalks for outside eating. I heard no real explanation how this would help revitalize the downtown. I did hear concerns from business owners concerning safety issues, including more lighting and policing after dark, and the need for criteria as to what was happening in the empty storefronts and offices. More participation from absentee land owners was also mentioned. I am fairly certain that investing in street parking is not the real problem for rejuvenating the downtown area. Taking away possible parking space and adding the complications of parallel parking will only make the situation worse. As a side note, we could really use sidewalks on Powell, South Blakeley and Sumac streets that are used by traffic from the Duvall-Redmond area to avoid the snarl at Main Street and Lewis Street (Highway 203).
In response to Pastor Jensen’s letter, “Loss of integrity can’t be the cost,” about Christian businesses providing services for gay weddings: Pastor Jensen poses a hypothetical where pro-choice signmakers are asked to produce graphic anti-abortion signs and claims that “everyone knows that proposition won’t fly.” I can only assume that by “everyone” he is referring to everyone in his circle of like-minded friends and acquaintances. I would like to inform him that I, for one, do believe a prochoice business should provide anti-abortion signs, just as Christian business should service gay weddings. Services are a public accommodation, not a tacit approval of a customer’s request. As a business owner myself, I have lived this belief: I have provided services related to Christian proselytizing even though I don’t agree with such activities. Pastor Jensen also minimizes the problem by saying at worst a gay couple will be “inconvenienced” by having to look for another business. I would like to remind him that he is speaking as a member of the Christian majority, and that it looks different from the perspective of a minority. Suppose the gay couple live in a rural area where all the florists/bakers are conservatives who refuse to serve their wedding? How far will they have to travel to find a business to serve them? Also, given recent cultural trends, it is not inconceivable that conservative Christians may one day be in the minority; if businesses are allowed to discriminate I wonder how far they will they have to travel to find printer to print their posters?

IN OUR VIEW | Consumers and food
American consumers have more power than the FDA or the CDC to create needed and healthy changes in our food supply. For example, people have decided that they don’t want farm-subsidized high fructose corn syrup in nearly every product they purchase, beyond the obvious soda and cereal, to ones that really make you wonder, such as boxed macaroni and cheese, packaged chicken strips and microwavable vegetable soup. Slowly, due to demand, food manufacturers are replacing high fructose corn syrup with cane sugar, or removing it altogether. They trumpet these changes in their advertisements. Meanwhile, apparently to balance the sweet, sodium is another ingredient used in too great of proportions in packaged foods. Year after year

Menendez’s sleaze enough reason to resign
B
ob Menendez doesn’t belong in the U.S. Senate. It’s not just the New Jersey Democrat’s 14-count indictment Wednesday on corruption charges, though that’s plenty damning. As bad is the appalling way in which he responded: with a political rally to kick off a campaign against the Justice Department in which Menendez plays the DANA MILBANK persecuted minority. Menendez called his event Wednesday night in Newark a “press conference,” but it was no such thing. He took no questions, instead reading a combative statement claiming the Justice Department — a Democratic administration’s Justice Department — was doing the bidding of “those who have a political motive to silence me.” Menendez, at the Hilton at Newark Penn Station, entered to 35 seconds of applause, whistles and cheers, and his brief speech was interrupted many more times by supporters in the room. At one point he smiled and said, “This is a press conference, so I would appreciate it if you would just withhold.” The crowd responded with more applause. Then he did the whole thing again in Spanish, saying he would be vindicated and his accusers exposed. “Si se puede!” somebody shouted during the applause that followed. If that effort to inject Menendez’s ethnicity into his legal troubles was too subtle, a website run by Menendez for Senate called “I Stand with Bob” emailed an article titled “Immigration advocates defend ‘the senior senator for Latinos.’” But Menendez is not being prosecuted because he’s Latino or because DOJ is endorsing the “smears” of his political enemies. He’s in trouble because he’s been sleazy. This is not to say Menendez will be proved guilty. In political corruption cases, quid pro quo is notoriously difficult to demonstrate, and since the botched prosecution of the late Sen. Ted Stevens, prosecutors have been reluctant to try. But what Menendez himself has admitted to — taking and failing to report gifts from a friend who had much to gain from the friendship — is enough to draw the conclusion that he is unfit to serve. It doesn’t matter if it’s illegal. It’s shameful. It wasn’t until investigators began to probe Menendez’s relationship with Salomon Melgen, a Florida eye doctor, that the senator wrote a personal check for $58,000 to pay for two private-jet flights to Melgen’s villa in the Dominican Republic. “This was sloppy,” his chief of staff said at the time. “I’m chalking it up to an oversight.” And how will Menendez chalk up the other 17 private flights Melgen provided for Menendez that investigators found? Menendez is accused of receiving from Melgen trips to Florida, Paris and the Dominican Republic, first-class airfare, meals, golf outings and upward of $750,000 in campaign contributions and legal-defense funds. In turn, prosecutors say, Menendez intervened to help Melgen in matters involving Medicare charges and a portsecurity contract, and he helped three of Melgen’s foreign-born girlfriends obtain U.S. visas. Much of this is either a matter of public record or easy to document, and Menendez, at least so far, hasn’t seriously disputed that he took gifts from Melgen or did things to help him. He says it was just a matter of camaraderie. “Prosecutors at the Justice Department don’t know the difference between friendship and corruption,” Menendez said Wednesday with a point of the index finger. But Menendez is the one who is confused. Friendship is about brotherly love; Melgen was Menendez’s patron. Whether a jury, months or years from now, agrees with Menendez and his lawyer’s allegation of DOJ “misconduct,” is beside the point. What Menendez did was expose his public office to the appearance that it could be bought. Menendez’s home-state Star-Ledger editorialized that the unreported gifts Menendez has acknowledged are “at least as bad” as those that led Rep. Rob Andrews, another New Jersey Democrat, to resign after reportedly using campaign funds to pay for trips. The newspaper, which endorsed Menendez in 2012, called for his resignation, arguing that, whatever happens in court, there’s no dispute that “it was sleazy to accept these secret gifts in the first place.” Resign merely because of sleaze? Yes, he can — and he should. Dana Milbank is a Washington Post columnist.

Cliven Bundy helps renew feds vs. states land debate This year, federal lands bills are being considered in 11 Western states
By Michelle Rindels
word beyond absurd, I would use that word.” He pointed to three clauses in the U.S. Constitution that pre-empt state-led efforts to claim land: The Supremacy Clause says federal law trumps state law; The Property Clause gives the federal government authority to own land; and the Enclave Clause provides another source of authority for federal land ownership.
Associated Press
CARSON CITY, Nev. — When rancher Cliven Bundy arrived at the Nevada Capitol with hundreds of supporters recently to urge legislators to pass a bill demanding state control of federally owned lands within Nevada’s borders, it renewed a fight over grazing rights that turned into an armed standoff last year. But it also represented the latest push in a decades-old tug-of-war that surfaces regularly in political debates and policy discussions. This year, federal lands bills are being considered in 11 Western states, including Nevada. Here are some questions and answers about the debate: What’s in dispute? Several federal agencies, including the Bureau of Land Management, administer land within state borders that isn’t owned by private or other public entities. About 4 percent of land east of the State of Colorado is managed by federal agencies, while that figure is much higher in the West and is more than 80 percent in Nevada. Much of this acreage is wilderness, and agencies including the BLM lease some of it for grazing and oil and gas development. What’s being proposed? Public lands bills in Western states run the gamut from measures that would study the cost of the state managing federal land, to measures asking or

Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, left, is confronted by activist Tork Rains while addressing a crowd at the Nevada State Legislature building to rally behind a bill seeking to reclaim land from the federal government Tuesday in Carson City, Nevada. Bundy garnered national attention a year ago when he and armed supporters engaged in a showdown with federal authorities.
demanding Congress turn over property. Nevada’s measure is the most far-reaching and would lay claim to almost all federally managed public lands and water rights in the state. Why do such bills come up so regularly? Part of it has to do with politically conservative values that prefer local control and resist federal overreach. It’s also rooted in the belief that federal authorities are standing in the way of ranchers and developers who say they can use the land to create jobs and boost the economy. Who wants federal control maintained? Conservationists worry
which the city passed through emergency legislation Dec. 24, have threatened to capsize an already listing construction budget. Until the city adopted the new rules, regulations in the city’s downtown business district required no extra parking for the new building. Stephanson said in January that he thought he had an understanding with the county about parking but was surprised when it didn’t materialize. As the sides tried and failed to reach a

predicted by both critics and supporters.
Why haven’t the efforts succeeded? The bills are largely considered to be unconstitutional because they put state authority ahead of federal law. But sometimes they do succeed, even if the effect is muted. In Utah, for example, legislators passed a law in 2012 demanding that the federal government turn over about 31 million acres of public land by the start of this year. The deadline for the transfer passed with no action, however, in a move
Is it really that simple? As a condition of joining the union, some states in the West agreed to give control of huge chunks of land to the federal government and incorporate “disclaimer clauses” in their constitutions. Today, the federal government is like any other property owner, and states don’t have the right to demand acreage any more than a renter has the right to demand control of an apartment, experts say. To describe the bill moving through the Nevada Legislature, professor Ian Bartrum of the Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas said, “If there’s a
compromise this year, the ground-breaking date got pushed back indefinitely. Work had been scheduled to start this spring. Everett floated a possible solution during discussions. It came in the form of a redevelopment project along Hewitt Avenue with parking and shops. Under the plans, the county would lease space in the future garage to comply with the city parking requirement. During the past few weeks, that idea got snagged on two issues, according to a March 30 letter that Lovick sent Stephanson. The biggest sticking point was how much the county would pay for the parking. The basic proposal involves
a 20-year lease in the future city parking garage, with rent starting at $252,000 per year. The sides had been unable to agree on how much that amount would increase each year. Suggestions have ranged from zero percent to 2 percent. Another source of friction was how far the parking structure could be located from the new courthouse. The numbers under discussion were a maximum of 250 feet or 500 feet — the difference of roughly two football fields, with end zones, versus four. Everett has considered redeveloping the south side of Hewitt Avenue between Rockefeller and Oakes avenues. That’s on the same block as the proposed courthouse and next

What about something smaller? Smaller-scale, controlled transfers have worked in the past. Ryan cited the example of the Southern Nevada Public Lands Management Act, which became law in 1998 and allowed the BLM to sell land close to Las Vegas. Proceeds benefit Nevada schools and the Southern Nevada Water Authority and pay for parks and conservation projects.
Are there other strategies? Erin Ryan, a professor and natural resources law expert at Lewis and Clark Law School in Oregon, said amending the U.S. Constitution is theoretically a
And Bundy? His dispute over about $1 million in grazing fees isn’t over, even though federal authorities called off efforts to gather his cattle amid fears of bloodshed. Bundy is rallying friends around the Nevada lands bill, while the BLM said it’s pursuing the case through the legal system. “Our primary goal remains, as it was a year ago, to resolve this matter safely and according to the rule of the law,” the agency said in a statement.
door to Xfinity Arena. Preservationists in Everett are worried about the loss of historic buildings there. An increase in distance would expand potential locations for the parking garage. The county designed the future eight-story courthouse with only 30 to 40 parking stalls reserved for judges and other staff. A stand-alone garage with enough spaces to satisfy Everett’s demands would cost up to $45 million, county staff have estimated. Lovick’s administration contends that the new courthouse will create no additional demands for parking. The plan is to demolish the current 1967 building once staff moves to the new digs, across the street and a block east of where they are now. The new building would occupy much of the block on the north side of Wall Street, between Rockefeller and Oakes avenues. It would take out a parking lot with more than 130 spaces that’s used for events at Xfinity Arena. The county also condemned six adjoining businesses for the building’s footprint. City leaders also say the county has failed to meet obligations to supply downtown parking that it agreed to more than a decade ago, before building a new jail and administrative offices. Every month of delay
adds nearly $200,000 onto the cost of the project, staff have estimated. Giving up on the new courthouse altogether would waste more than $26.4 million of taxpayer money, with nothing to show for it. That’s largely because the county is obligated to pay interest on construction bonds it took out for the courthouse. That estimate, from late February, was expected to grow. County leaders even started to think about tearing up their architectural plans and building the courthouse somewhere else. The county issued a formal request March 30 for firms interested in studying potential courthouse sites outside the city of Everett, the county seat. It’s unclear whether that option is politically realistic. Most County Council members are against moving the courthouse. That owes in large part to cost of transporting prisoners from the county jail downtown back and forth to hearings at a remote court facility. The County Council also has asked the architect hired on the courthouse project to work up estimates for back-up plans, including remodeling the current courthouse and adding a new wing.

Then why, again, does this keep coming up? Washington state Republican Rep. Matt Shea has become a prominent voice in the fight for local authority over federal land, and says there are constitutional grounds for such a transfer. He says the Equal Footing doctrine in the Constitution means new states and older states are equals, and argues that unless Western states have more control over the lands within their borders that’s not the case. Other proponents of a transfer concede the state doesn’t have power to carry it out. But they believe a groundswell of state-level action and cooperation among states can convince Congress to give over land. “The only way we can do this is with numbers and power,” said Republican Nevada Assemblyman John Ellison.
possibility, but too rigorous to be practical. The most likely path for a potential handover would be through an act of Congress, Ryan said. But she said there’s little appetite for a large-scale transfer, especially among representatives from states outside of the West, because of concerns that the lands would be closed off to the general public and the sentiment that it belongs to a broader population than one state’s citizens, she said.

Endeavour Elementary School celebrated the United Nations’ International Day of Happiness on March 20 with a special event that featured a mock radio program and musical. Fifth-grade students performed an original song written by teacher Linda Wooding, “Happiness in Any Language,” among many other happy “hits,” from The Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun” to Pharrell Williams’ “Happy.” Students played recorders and xylophones with a marimba band accompanying. Other classes held up signs bearing the word “happiness” in different languages. The school’s third-, fourth- and fifth-grade students have cultural ties to about 40 different languages. In 2011, the U.N. General Assembly adopted a resolution that recognized happiness as a “fundamental human goal,” including an approach to economic growth that promotes sustainable development and poverty eradication. The first International Day of Happiness was celebrated in 2013.

Stop worrying and just be a mom
DAILY CROSSWORD
I
’ve asked the men in several recent audiences to raise hands if they believe moms stress out concerning their children at least five times more than dads. All the men’s hands went up to general laughter. I then asked the women to raise hands if they agreed with the men. All the women’s hands went up, again to general laughter. “Please keep your hand up,” I then asked, “if you think parenting has become bad for the mental health of women, in general, that is?” If any hands went down, I didn’t see them. Again, laughter. Is any of this really funny? Stressing out over children is a relatively new phenomenon. Women in my mother’s generation did not stress out over their kids. There may have been exceptions, but I’ve never run into one. The ubiquity of stressing began in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and I think I know why. The first modern parenting book, “Between Parent and Child” by psychologist Haim Ginott, was published in 1965. In it, Ginott described a radically new per-

distress would ensue. The success of Ginott’s book unleashed a torrent of parenting books that is ongoing. As of March 23, 2015, Amazon lists more than 103,000 parenting books. That screams COMPLICATED! Women are the primary consumers, by far, of parenting books. As they read, what I call psychological boogeymen jump off the pages and into their brains, where they take up residence. These little demons keep up a constant chatter that drowns out the quiet, calming voice of common sense. They cause mothers to agonize over minutiae, second-guess themselves and believe they must be constantly on their parenting toes lest they miss or mishandle something and send their children’s supposedly fragile psyches or school achievement into a tailspin. My standard prescription for today’s stressed-out moms: Stop reading anything about parenting that brings on worry, guilt or confusion. Your feelings count, too, you know.
JOHN ROSEMOND LIVING WITH CHILDREN spective on and approach to children. Unlike pediatrician Ben Spock, whose monumental bestseller was published in 1946 and was very practical, Ginott went off into psychological theory and thus gave parents new things to think about — abstract, speculative, unverifiable things. He talked a lot about the need for parents to correctly read, interpret and respond to their children’s feelings, for example. As was the case with Spock, women were Ginott’s primary audience. But whereas Spock was reassuring, Ginott was disquieting. He implied that if parents did not respond to their children’s feelings properly, great psychological

Wife’s close friendship leaves hubby feeling odd man out Dear Abby: My wife, “Connie,” and I have been together for 30 years and have a wonderful marriage. She’s a schoolteacher, and I travel on business often. I think the time away from each other is good; it gives us a chance to enjoy some “me” time. Connie is a genuinely nice person and makes friends easily, which I admire. However, over the last five years she has become very close with a divorced woman who teaches at her school. They text each other seemingly nonstop, and when I travel, they always get together for a movie or dinner. I’m not really concerned that there’s any kind of physical relationship between them, but I feel their friendship has become like an “emotional affair.” When I brought this up with my wife, she said, “You don’t want me to have any friends?” What bothers me is that I used to be Connie’s best friend, but I feel I have been replaced. She tries to reassure me I’m still No. 1, then goes off into her bathroom to text with her friend. I think it’s obvious she gets something from this relationship that she doesn’t get from me. Do you think friendships between women can evolve into emotional affairs? — Shut Out In Texas Dear Shut Out: Women communicate with other women on a different level than they do with men. I wouldn’t call close friendships among women “emotional affairs” because I don’t think it’s true. Since this bothers you enough to write to me, and Connie seems to be communicating in secret, please discuss this in depth with her. RIP HAYWIRE

Dear Abby: My boyfriend, “Luke,” and I go to the gym together four to five times a week. Yesterday, there was a man on a treadmill who was sweating profusely. I kid you not, it was coating the treadmill. Luke tends to speak loudly, and he occasionally forgets to turn on his filter. When he saw what was happening, he exclaimed loudly, “That’s disgusting.” I nudged him and told him he was being rude, but unfortunately, we think the man heard him. Luke is actually a kind and sensitive person, so he instantly felt awful. This man is a frequent gymgoer and is often there when we are. Luke wants to apologize, but he’s worried that if the man didn’t hear him, he will have to explain what he said. What are your thoughts? — Filterless In California Dear Filterless: Luke was out of line, but at this point, he should let it go or he may further embarrass the man. Sweating during aerobic exercise is normal and healthy, and not something that a person can control. If, when the man was finished with the machine, he wiped it down, he was acting appropriately. (Unfortunately, not all gym members do.) Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Lifetime deciding what to do with Will Ferrell movie The fate of a Lifetime TV movie featuring Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig remained unclear Friday after the project’s planned secrecy was spoiled. The former “Saturday Night Live� stars made the ominously titled “A Deadly Adoption,� playing a couple who befriend a pregnant woman in hopes of adopting her child. Lifetime’s movies, frequently melodramas about life and love that appeal to the network’s primarily female audience, are a genre onto themselves and often ripe for parody. “We are disappointed that our secret project with Will and Kristen was leaked and the network is determining the fate of the movie,� said Michael
Feeney, spokesman for Lifetime’s corporate parent, A&E Networks, on Friday. Will Ferrell After word of the project got out, Ferrell issued a statement that he and Wiig had decided it was “in the best interest for everyone to forego the project entirely.� Lifetime had said the movie was due to air this summer. Ferrell’s statement may be an empty threat: Stars generally don’t have the ability to kill an alreadyfilmed project, except in the unusual circumstance where they fully financed the production,
said Jonathan Handel, an entertainment attorney for the Hollywood firm TroyGould. Even then, they could face a breach of contract lawsuit if the film had already been leased to a television network. In most cases, television movies are financed jointly by a production company and the network itself, Handel said. It has been a tumultuous professional week for Ferrell, whose “Get Hard� movie with Kevin Hart is currently in theaters. On Tuesday, Ferrell’s agent Jason Heyman was part of a high-profile group of agents who defected from the Creative Artists Agency to another group, the United Talent Agency. Ferrell stuck with Heyman, switching
his representation to UTA. A day later, the Hollywood Reporter wrote an anonymously sourced story about the Lifetime movie, “A Deadly Adoption,� previously a closely guarded secret. It’s not known how long Lifetime and the stars planned to keep the secret. Typically, a cable network that lands two big Hollywood stars for a project gives potential viewers at least some advanced warning that it is coming. If Ferrell and Wiig legitimately want to shelve “A Deadly Adoption,� it means months spent writing a screenplay, acting the scenes and editing the movie would go to waste.

Seniors can still live, love and enjoy life
W
hen a senior looks into a mirror, what do they see? Do they see an old person looking back at them who has lost all of their powers and is waiting for the end? Or do they see an interesting person who is still enjoying life to the fullest? The answer to that may be in how and where that senior decides to live as they age. The person’s environment, such as an active senior living community, can make a big difference as to how that person lives and feels. “If there is one thing I’ve learned from working in senior living for over 10 years it’s that we don’t have a map for living out our senior years with gusto,” said Garden Court Retirement Community staff member Jane Meyers-Bowen. Yet seniors are now living longer. There is more opportunity to reach out and try new things. People just don’t usually know what those things might be. The Baby Boomers are leading the way to a new type of retirement. “It’s kind of uncharted territory,” Meyers-Bowen added. Many seniors have already achieved life’s milestones by the time they retire. This in itself can leave them feeling lost. They laugh at the term “the golden years” yet they don’t see the golden op-
portunities still available to them. The first step these seniors must make is to take ownership of their retirement years. No one can make you do things or make you happy. You have to do it yourself. It’s not an easy task in this period of transition and can be especially hard on seniors who don’t have the support of peers. Moving in with adult children can still leave the senior feeling alone and a little lost even though they have family all around them. In a retirement community, seniors are still responsible for getting themselves out and getting active, but they have more opportunities for that active engagement. They can see other seniors and what they are doing, whether it is volunteering, gardening, walking groups or hobbies. This opens the seniors’ minds to the possibilities that are available to them rather than to the limitations of age or any infirmity. It also allows the senior to redefine wellness and to learn what they are capable of doing rather than focusing on what they can’t do any more. “They start to feel a sense of self and self-esteem again and see the value of what they have,” Meyers-Bowen explained. In a retirement community, seniors meet people who are interested in hearing about their

past and the things they achieved and experienced. That doesn’t always happen when living with adult children who may make them feel these stories from their past aren’t important. Similarly, seniors living alone in single-family homes tend to lose touch with the world and can lose their confidence and the ability to socialize. “If they don’t see themselves as having much to
offer they don’t offer it,” Meyers-Bowen said. A retirement community can help seniors realize they can still live, still love and still take a lot of enjoyment from what they can do rather than be limited by what they can’t. They are able to battle back and take charge of this new phase of their lives rather than sit around and wait for it to end. Garden Court Retirement Community in
Everett offers seniors both independent living and assisted living options in a beautiful and carefree environment. Residents can select from studio, one- or two-bedroom private apartments. Meals in a restaurant-style dining room and housekeeping are included. That leaves plenty of time to explore the many activities and amenities the community offers. Garden Court features

S
EATTLE — Many of our most amazing stories can be traced to a single act of faith. To that moment when one person believes, and acts on that belief, when others see no reason to do so. That’s worth remembering as the Seattle Mariners, buoyed by escalating optimism, prepare for their season opener at 1:10 p.m. Monday against the Los Angeles Angels at Safeco Field. “Our goal is to make the playoffs and win the whole thing,” declared righthander Felix Hernandez, who will start the club’s opener for the seventh straight season. “We’ve got the pieces now. So no excuses.” That kind of optimism. No-excuses optimism. It’s a feeling that took root last season when the Mariners, after signing second baseman Robinson Cano, produced a 16-game turnaround and came within one game of reaching the postseason for the first time since 2001. Cano’s arrival coincided with the first tangible rewards from the
organization’s often-painful rebuilding process. Third baseman Kyle Seager blossomed into an All-Star and a Gold Glove recipient. Catcher Mike Zunino, in his first full season, displayed the ability to handle a diverse staff while showing the promise of potent production. Taijuan Walker and James Paxton, long viewed as two of the game’s top young arms, flashed their potential with glimpses of dominance. Hisashi Iwakuma, though slowed by an injury, validated his 2013 All-Star form. Veteran closer Fernando Rodney signed on, set a club record with 48 saves and stabilized a young relief corps. That optimism blossomed further last winter when general manager Jack Zduriencik addressed the club’s need for a right-handed power hitter by signing Nelson Cruz, who led the
majors a year ago with 40 homers. “That got everybody’s attention,” Zduriencik said. “They look at this club and feel we’re in a position that we can do some things.” Zduriencik and his lieutenants also added veterans Seth Smith, Rickie Weeks, Justin Ruggiano and J.A. Happ to a roster that, last season, too often relied on too many untested players. Cano looks around now and notes Zduriencik did what he promised — “to build a championship team ... over the next three years.” Believing Zduriencik, as Cano did, in December 2013 took faith, certainly. The Mariners were coming off a four-year stretch in which they averaged 93.5 losses. Zduriencik’s job appeared in jeopardy, and the club’s front office was in disarray amid reports of rampant dysfunction. But when Cano chose to walk away from a fortune in pinstripes for greater riches in what was then a baseball wasteland, he knew he wouldn’t be alone in attempting to resurrect the Mariners. “I wouldn’t say it’s only going to be See FELIX, Page C2

SEATTLE — There are those rare moments when you actually get to see a dream come true. Lefty reliever Tyler Olson got the word last week that he had beaten the odds as a nonroster invite by winning a spot on the Seattle Mariners’ 25-man roster for Monday’s season opener against the Los Angeles Angels at Safeco Field. It became official Saturday, shortly after the Mariners concluded their Cactus League schedule, when the club announced it had selected Olson’s contract from Triple-A Tacoma. But Sunday brought visual proof when Olson walked into the Mariners’ clubhouse at Safeco Field and saw his name above a locker wedged between James Paxton and Danny Farquhar. “Speechless,” Olson said. “I was talking to my parents, and they asked me if it had actually hit me yet. I said it probably won’t until I stand in front of my locker. And it really did.” The Mariners offered Olson an opportunity to ditch No. 66 for something more traditional for big-league players, but he declined. “For me,” he said, “it was just remembering my first spring training. Just the opportunity of being there for my first big-league camp. It’s a little bit of remembering where I came

offers towel-waving testimony to the connection between Hernandez and the fans whenever he pitches at Safeco Field. Hernandez credits the crowd for helping carry him through his perfect game on Aug. 15, 2012 in a 1-0 victory over Tampa Bay. And he still warms in recalling the reception he received when he last pitched at Safeco. That was the season finale a year ago, against the Angels, when Hernandez was simultaneously trying to pitch the Mariners into a one-game playoff for the AL’s final postseason berth and win the ERA title for a second time. Hernandez did his part, but the news from Texas wasn’t good. As the Mariners batted in the fifth inning, they learned postseason must wait at least one more year; the scoreboard reported Oakland had closed out a 4-0 victory. That news prompted a brief collective moan from the Safeco crowd of 40,823 before it stood and cheered. It cheered again in the sixth when Hernandez, the ERA crown secured, turned the game over to the bullpen. “That was amazing,” Hernandez recalled. “People ask me about that all of the time, and I’ve got no words to explain that. It was just unbelievable.” He expects a similar reception on Monday, when he makes his club-record eighth overall start in a season opener. For the first time since 2008, though, the season opens at home. “First, I want to see King’s Court,” Hernandez said in detailing his anticipation. “And then, it’s been a while since we opened in Seattle. It’s going to be a great experience.” The first, he believes, of many this season. “It feels different around here,” he said, “a lot different. We’ve improved our offense. We brought in Nelson Cruz and other hitters. We still have Cano, Seager and all of those guys. “We want to win. That’s what we’re here for. That’s our main goal. Just to be in the playoffs. We look pretty good, but it’s a tough division. We’ve just got to play.” Hernandez is boisterous, as he often is, in barking out those words and almost breathless by the end. Then he pauses and softens his delivery. The changeup after the fastball. And just as telling. “This is where I wanted to be for this,” he said. “This is where I always wanted to be. Not anywhere else. Here. I want to win here. I’ve always wanted to win here. Now, we have a great team here.” Just as he always believed.

allowing just one earned run in five innings. The Mariners fell to 15 games under .500 at 46-61. Now-teammate Fernando Rodney closed out Detroit’s victory for a save. That was almost 10 years ago. Bloomquist and Rodney moved on to other teams. Both played in postseason while Hernandez toiled for a succession of poor-to-mediocre clubs. Nonetheless, he gained recognition as one of the game’s premier stars. “He throws 97 to 98 with a good breaking pitch, good changeup,” former teammate Freddy Garcia once said. “He has everything. The only thing he has to do is to keep focused and working hard for success.” Hernandez stayed focused. He led the American League with 19 victories in 2009 and finished second in the Cy Young Award balloting. A year later, he led the AL with a 2.27 ERA and won the Cy Young Award. He also had a presence beyond his years. “This kid is real confident in his abilities,” said Mike Hargrove, who was managing the Mariners when Hernandez reached the majors. “He is secure in who he is.” But former Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire countered, “I don’t think we’re talking about poise here. I think we’re talking about a 97-mph fastball and a curveball from hell.” Hernandez has pitched at least 200 innings in each of the last seven years, has 200 or more strikeouts in each of his last six seasons and was chosen for the All-Star team on five occasions. He started last year’s All-Star Game. “When you ask about durability, when you ask about consistency,” Hall of Fame pitcher Pedro Martinez said, “I think Felix brings (those qualities). Not only that, Felix is still so young, so capable of doing anything.” For all that, Hernandez’s resume had — still has — a gaping hole. “I haven’t been in the playoffs,” he said, “and I dream of that. Guys who have been there say it’s so different. They say there’s nothing like it. I want to know that feeling.” So why, then, with free agency looming on the horizon, did Hernandez choose to remain with the Mariners on that day a little over two years ago when postseason seemed impossibly far away? What made him believe? You can hear the answer Monday when he takes the mound. ■■■ The King’s Court, or the more expanded Supreme Count,

had a possible opening for a lefty reliever, but he spent last season as a starter — first at Hi-A High Desert and later at Double-A Jackson. Plus, he had barely more than 200 innings of professional experience following his selection in the seventh round of the 2013 draft after a standout career at Gonzaga. Olson appeared a good bet to start the season at Tacoma, particularly since competition for that bullpen job appeared stiff when camp opened. Lucas Luetge topped the returning candidates and figured to get a long look. The Mariners also signed two veterans to minor-league contracts just prior to the opening of camp: Rafael Perez and Joe Saunders. Between them, they had 17 years and 573 games of big-league experience. Olson out-pitched them all; he didn’t permit an earned run in 122⁄3 innings over 10 appearances. He allowed eight hits but didn’t walk a batter while registering 15 strikeouts. So here he is, in the big leagues. “I actually did a scout showcase (at Safeco) when I was in college,” he said. “I was invited here. I’ve thrown in the bullpen, and I’ve thrown on the game mound. So I’m a little bit familiar (with the ballpark). “But actually coming here, and knowing this is the new office, this is the new home ... is a little bit different for me.”

Probable Starting Pitchers Seattle right-hander Felix Hernandez 0-0, 0.00 earned run average) vs.right-hander Jered Weaver (0-0, 0.00 ).
Smith’s first opener Right-handed reliever Carson Smith didn’t expect to be with the Mariners for their brisk Sunday workout at Safeco Field. It was only one week earlier that he was optioned to Tacoma. Club officials reversed field last Friday by recalling Smith to replace a struggling Dominic Leone in their bullpen. Leone will now — barring further surprises — open the season with the Rainiers. “It was a little bit of a shock,” Smith admitted. “The last time I got called up (was last September). I wasn’t anticipating it, but I knew there were callups coming. “This was the first time I got that crazy phone call in the middle of the day after I was done with a full day’s workout in the minor leagues.” Smith enters the season with a streak of nine scoreless appearances to open his career. He allowed just two hits in 82⁄3 innings last September after that callup. He also struck out 10 and walked three.
Opening Day events The gates at Safeco Field open at 10:40 a.m. Monday for the 1:10 p.m. game, and the Mariners are advising fans to leave extra time in coming to the park. Not only is the game a sellout, but fans are reminded that enhanced screening procedures are in place, including walk-through metal detectors. All bags, including purses, are subject to inspection. Broadcasters Rick Rizzs and Aaron Goldsmith will be joined by the Mariner Moose in conducting a countdown at the Home Plate Gate. All fans will get a magnetic schedule, courtesy of Safeco Insurance. Pre-game activities include: ■ Jake Catterall, a 12-year-old from Tacoma, will make the ceremonial first run around the bases as part of the Make-A-Wish program. Jake is living with intractable epilepsy, a life-threatening medical condition. ■ The national anthem will be sung by Generald Wilson, a retired Navy petty officer first class. ■ The colors will be presented by I Corps Command from Joint Base Lewis McChord. ■ The Mariners will honor and remember Suzanne Stork, wife of Mariners owner Carl Stork, long-time scout Bill Kearns and pitching prospect Victor Sanchez with a moment of silence. ■ Third baseman Kyle Seager will receive his Gold Glove for defensive excellence from Rawlings Sporting Goods. ■ Former Mariners second baseman Joey Cora will throw out the ceremonial first pitch. ■ With Felix Hernandez on the mound, the King’s Court will be in session.

M’s first baseman Logan Morrison batted .321 over his final 51 games in 2014, including .342 in September.
5 questions facing M’s By Bob Dutton The News Tribune
Will the rotation hold up?
T
he Seattle Mariners, on paper, might have the deepest rotation in the American League with a unit headed by Felix Hernandez and consisting of James Paxton, Hisashi Iwakuma, J.A. Happ and Taijuan Walker. There aren’t many rotations elsewhere that couldn’t find a spot for Roenis Elias, who will open the season at Triple-A Tacoma. The question for the Mariners is durability. While Hernandez is a proven workhorse, the other four each spent time last year on the disabled list. Also, Elias missed time in September (although he wasn’t officially “disabled.”) That durability issue also rises in terms of effectiveness. Hernandez and Iwakuma should be good for 200 or more innings, but Paxton, Happ, Walker and Elias have never thrown 180 innings in a professional season. Even if everybody stays healthy — and, really, how likely is that? — the Mariners will be called on to do some serious juggling to keep their starting pitchers from hitting a wall in September.
Will Cruz deliver as expected? That really depends on what you expect. Nelson Cruz set career highs last season with 40 homers and 108 RBI while playing half of his games in hitter-friendly Baltimore. So start with that: Those were his career highs. The switch to Safeco Field will, almost certainly, have a dampening effect on his power. Robinson Cano encountered that last season when his slugging percentage dipped from .516 in 2013 in New York to .454 with the Mariners. But it’s hard to believe Cruz, if he stays, healthy, won’t far exceed the production the Mariners received a year ago from their DHs: a slash of .190/.266/.301 (batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage). If you’ve got Cruz in a fantasy league, he’s unlikely to help you as much as he did last season. But the Mariners should gain a big boost in production.
Will McClendon’s magic touch continue? With no apologies to Kansas City, which reaps deserved attention for its dynamic three-headed closer, the Mariners had the best overall bullpen a season ago by a wide margin. Judge that, pretty much, by any stat you want. What is also overlooked is the Mariners’ relief corps, with one notable exception, consisted roughly of the same guys who, a year earlier, resembled torch bearers.
That exception was veteran Fernando Rodney, a free agent who arrived just prior to camp. While Rodney often turns the ninth inning into a thrill ride, he also recorded 48 saves in 51 opportunities. Also notable was Lloyd McClendon’s deft touch in matching up his relievers against the opposition. Some of that might have been good fortune; hey, sometimes you get the right matchup in a particular situation — and the reliever just doesn’t execute. That didn’t happen a lot last year. That doesn’t mean it won’t happen this year.
Will Morrison perform for an entire season? Logan Morrison’s strong closing kick a year ago helped convince the Mariners they didn’t need to add a first baseman to their offseason shopping list. And if he maintains that performance level, the Mariners should be fine. But, was it an outlier? One example: Morrison batted .321 over his final 51 games, including .342 in September. Before that 51-game surge, he was a .243 hitter in 411 career games over parts of five seasons. Another concern: Morrison played just 99 games last season because he missed two months due to a hamstring injury. He has played fewer than 100 games, because of various injuries, in each of his last three seasons. The Mariners took a look, as spring training wound down, at Rickie Weeks at first base. Don’t be surprised if, as a hedge, Weeks gets more time there as the season unfolds.
Will M’s get dependable play from their shortstop? One of the more fascinating spring competitions in either league came to an abrupt end March 13, when Brad Miller became a default choice at shortstop after Chris Taylor suffered a broken bone in his right wrist. The Miller/Taylor battle offered a study in contrasts: Miller is generally viewed as a suspect defensive player who has high-ceiling hitting potential with power. Taylor is a steadier glove but less of a bat. Not surprising, perhaps, they each bristle a bit at those labels. (It’s worth noting Miller has a strong arm and made several plays this spring from the hole; Taylor showed increased muscle at the plate before his injury.) Anyway, all Taylor’s injury did was push a decision down the road. The job belongs to Miller for as long as he can hold it. If he stumbles, Taylor could be a viable replacement by mid-to-late April. The Mariners might also have a third alternative stashed at Tacoma in Ketel Marte, who could be ready at some point this season.

SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Padres couldn’t start the season without yet another blockbuster deal by first-year general manager A.J. Preller. Preller pushed ahead with his remarkable makeover of the Padres on Sunday when he acquired All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel and outfielder Melvin Upton from the Atlanta Braves for outfielders Carlos Quentin and Cameron Maybin, plus two minor leaguers and a draft pick. While Upton will be reunited with his younger brother, Padres left fielder Justin Upton, this deal centered around Kimbrel, whom Preller called “an A-level performer.” The Padres take on $80.35 million in guaranteed salaries to Kimbrel and Upton while shedding the $24 million guaranteed still owed to the oft-injured Quentin and Maybin. Taking on the remaining $46.35 million on Melvin Upton’s contract appeared to be the price for landing Kimbrel, who is owed a guaranteed $34 million. Melvin Upton was placed
on the disabled list Saturday with a left foot injury. Kimbrel led the NL for the second-straight year with 47 saves after saving 50 games in 2013, which tied Baltimore’s Jim Johnson for the major league lead. Kimbrel was tied for most in the NL in both 2011 (46) and 2012 (42). Since his first full season in 2011, when he won the NL Rookie of the Year award, Kimbrel leads all big league closers with 185 saves. He has been an All-Star each of the last four seasons. Melvin Upton missed most of spring training — he didn’t have a single big league exhibition at-bat — and Preller said the Braves felt he will not be ready to play in a game for three-tofour weeks.

No team lost more games in spring training than the champion San Francisco Giants, hardly any pitcher struggled more than World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner. So what? Throw out those stats — it’s time to play ball for real. Come Monday, Clayton Kershaw and Masahiro Tanaka will be on the mound, Mike Trout and David Ortiz will be at the plate, Max Scherzer and Pablo Sandoval will be on new teams. In all, 28 teams in action, all hoping to make the Final Ten come October. “If you can play every day like opening day and get yourself up like you do for opening day, you’re probably going to have a good year,” said Giants manager Bruce Bochy, whose club visits Arizona. “That’s how we like to play every game, that it’s the most important game of the year. Opening day is that day. It’s an important game. It probably helps set the tone a little bit,” he said. Across the Northeast and Midwest, ballparks were battered by a harsh winter. Blizzards, belowzero temperatures, sheets of ice and wicked winds made preparations even tougher. Chalk this up to baseball’s good fortune: In Detroit, Philadelphia, New York, Kansas City and other places that endured a long winter, it’s forecast to be clear enough and in the 60s and 70s on opening day. Washington outfielder Bryce Harper was pleasantly surprised when he took his position at Nationals Park on Saturday for an exhibition against the New York Yankees. The NHL held the Winter Classic at the ballpark on Jan. 1, and Washington was enveloped by frosty conditions. “It feels fine. I thought it was great,” Harper said. “Someone was telling me that when the NHL does it, they actually have to re-do the whole field or something like that. So that was brand-new grass out there. It was beautiful. It played great.” Harper, Scherzer and the Nationals host the New York Mets on Monday. Tanaka, Alex Rodriguez and the Yankees will be home to play Toronto. Pitcher Adam Warren was eager to see how well the grounds crew had done at Yankee Stadium, especially since the city’s new Major League Soccer team recently played on the grass. “I know they’ve been working hard. The kind of weather that I’ve been hearing that New York has been having, for them to get it in great shape is pretty remarkable,” Warren said Sunday.

“They’ve got a heck of a team and their team has gotten a lot better as the season has gone on. Jewell’s (Jewell Loyd) a great player, obviously, but all their other players have gotten significantly better since the beginning of the season.” The Huskies are 9-0 in title games and a victory over the Irish would tie Auriemma with vaunted UCLA men’s coach John Wooden for the most all-time with 10. It would also be the second three-peat for UConn, which won three straight championships from 2002-04. The last two titles of that run came against Tennessee, marking the only other time in NCAA Tournament history

that the same teams met in back-to-back championship games. Making the Final Four seems like a rite of spring lately for the Huskies (37-1). They have appeared in the last eight national semifinals. Tuck scored the final five points of the half to give the Huskies a double-digit advantage going into the break. Tuck started the second half with another 3 as UConn scored the first nine points to break the game open. Her layup capped the burst and gave UConn a 53-33 advantage, essentially putting the game out reach. “Tuck was a big time X-factor for them tonight,” Maryland coach Brenda Frese said.

TAMPA, Fla. — All-American Jewell Loyd scored 22 points and Madison Cable’s only basket of the game lifted Notre Dame to a victory over Final Four newcomer South Carolina in the national semifinals. The Irish (36-2) advanced to the NCAA championship game for the fourth time in five years, surviving a scoring drought that lasted nearly seven minutes down the stretch. The Irish have not been able to win it all since coach Muffet McGraw led them to their only national title in 2001. Loyd said no one boxed out Cable on her game-winning basket, adding: “She’s done it all year. She’s the MVP.” South Carolina (34-3) overcame a 12-point, first-half deficit and did it again in the closing minutes. The Gamecocks used a 13-0 run to take their only lead on Aleighsa Welch’s putback with 1:12 remaining.

SEAHAWKS | Notebook
Will Seahawks give ex-UW QB Price a second chance? By Gregg Bell
a very accurate thrower. You can see it on the deep ball; he threw the ball 60 yards out here. So he ripped it. “I think it’s just a matter of time. He’s got to get his break and get his opportunity to show it. He has a lot of stuff that is hard to find. The intangibles are there.” Is there any part of Carroll and the Seahawks curious to give Price a second chance by signing him for their minicamp in June and maybe even training camp in late July? Especially with veteran backup quarterback Tarvaris Jackson currently shopping the league as an unrestricted free agent? “Yeah. Yeah,” Carroll said. “He did well again (Thursday).” As for Wilson, Carroll said again that talks on his new contract are “ongoing” and on track.
The News Tribune
SEATTLE — Will Keith Price get a second chance with the Seahawks? Thursday, Seattle general manager John Schneider and coach Pete Carroll watched the owner of 11 passing records at the University of Washington “rip it,” in Carroll’s words, at UW’s pro day. Price hasn’t taken a snap in any pro game following his last college game. He remains a curiosity. He spent last May in a Seahawks rookie minicamp as an undrafted free agent, but Seattle released him in June because it was trying to see what it had in Terrelle Pryor as a potential backup (the Seahawks released Pryor in August). Price then was out of football until Saskatchewan signed him in September as a never-used, third-string passer in the Canadian Football League. “All I know was it was cold as hell out there,” Price, a native of Compton just south of Los Angeles, said of the Canadian prairie. Price looked bigger in his upper body and torso Thursday. And he threw strongly; maybe a half-dozen of his 100 or so passes hit the turf at UW’s Dempsey Indoor facility. His best throws were on consecutive, deep post routes to former Huskies teammates Kasen Williams and DiAndre Campbell. The first one soared 55 yards in the air in stride to Williams, the other 60 yards into Campbell’s sprint. Price threw short out routes, long outs, crossing routes, roll outs on the run and goal-line fades. The knock on Price is that at 6 feet 1 and 202 pounds he’s not big enough for the NFL. Yet some supposedly small guy

named Russell Wilson’s done OK for the Seahawks in the league. Asked what Price needed to get into the NFL, Carroll said: “I think he’s really close. He really is a QB. He’s got the poise and the stature and the mentality of handling the position. He’s very cool and calm about stuff. He’s very articulate around the huddle, calling stuff at the line of scrimmage. He’s got a very good presence and all of that. Very accurate thrower. He’s not a big-arm thrower, but
The Seahawks’ organized team activities (OTAs) are May 26-27, May 29, June 1-2, June 4 and June 8-11. Carroll confirmed the Seahawks will be on the field for only one of the team’s three mandatory minicamp days in Renton: June 16, 17 and 18. The NFL docked Seattle two days of on-field minicamp work after determining too much contact went on during last year’s mandatory minicamp. The first day the players can hold their own organized offseason workouts is April 20. Wilson is taking his receivers to Hawaii after then for his annual spring passing drills, after two years of bringing his guys to Hermosa Beach, California.
Extra point The re-signing of fullback Will Tukuafu Wednesday gave thought to Derrick Coleman and how the starting fullback is recovering from the foot he broke warming up for the Oct. 21 game at St. Louis. “Supposed to be full go by the time we get going,” Carroll said of one of the Seahawks’ top special-teams players.”
Sounders ahead of last season’s pace By Don Ruiz
then, Dempsey and Martins have put the team on their backs, just as designated players are signed to do.
The News Tribune
SEATTLE — The Seattle Sounders endured an embarrassing home loss to San Jose and survived a ravaged roster at Dallas. And yet here they are a month into this Major League Soccer season with a higher points total than they had at this point last season, when they went on to win the Supporters’ Shield. That’s how quickly fortunes can change for a team that jumped to 2-1-1 with a 1-0 home win Saturday against rebuilding Houston. About all that separated the Sounders and Dynamo was three seconds of brilliance by forward Obafemi Martins. But when that one amazing goal-of-the-week contender stood up through the final whistle, Seattle found itself with seven points, one better than after four games last season. A few updated thoughts as the Sounders shift into game-week preparations for their coming trip to Los Angeles:
Interesting shift at left back
DPs worthy of the title — and expense There was a time when the highprofile weakness in the Sounders’ personnel-acquisition resume was their stable of designated players. Blaze Nkufo, ugh; Christian Tiffert, eh; Alvaro Fernandez, hmm. These days the club is three deep in four-star game-changers: Clint Dempsey, check; Obafemi Martins, check; Osvaldo Alonoso, check. Or exclamations points. On Saturday, all three shared the pitch for the first time this season. Dempsey and Martins combined for the lone goal, and Alonso helped preserve it in his

season debut after a groin injury. Four games into the season, Dempsey and Martins are the only Sounders to score: three goals each. That has got to change. Lamar Neagle, Chad Barrett, Marco Pappa ... any and all are going to need to start contributing goals. But until
The up and down career of Dylan Remick took another uptick last week when he trained with the first team despite the apparent full health of Leo Gonzalez, the regular starter there since the expansion season. Then Remick got the start and was part of the shutout against the Dynamo. If that signals any kind of changing of the guard, it’s a doubly interesting one: not just that Gonzalez was among the reserves, but that newcomer Andres Correa wasn’t the one to unseat him, as seemed possible in the preseason. It’s also interesting that coach Sigi Schmid would be open to any unnecessary changes with a defense that seems to have found itself since that three-blunder disaster against the Earthquakes. Brad Evans has rebounded admirably. At Dallas, Zach Scott reminded anyone who needed reminding of just how solid he can be. Chad Marshall is back healthy. Tyrone Mears has fit in seamlessly. It didn’t seem to be a unit begging for change. This will be a spot worth watching.
Wild West off to an intriguing start Also worth watching are the Western Conference standings. At just this little snapshot of the season, it’s hard to determine if the bigger surprise is Vancouver at the top at 4-1 or the defending champion Galaxy below the playoff red line at 1-2-2. Sounders fans will get a close-up look at this version of the Galaxy at 4 p.m. Sunday.
Pacers’ George gets warm reception in season debut By Michael Marot Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Paul George’s support came from all corners Sunday. Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski took time out of his national championship prep work to meet privately with the Pacers’ young star. A growing legion of fans inside Bankers Life Fieldhouse arrived in George’s new No. 13 jersey. He scored 13 points in 15 minutes and made two key 3-pointers early in the fourth quarter, helping Indiana rout Miami 112-89 as the Pacers moved to within one game of the final playoff spot. It was almost perfect. “Everything that I expected,” George said. “Welcoming me back into the game was probably the greatest moment that I’ve had. It was so hard to not get caught up in the moment.” George’s return provided a needed boost for Indiana (34-43), which had seen its playoff hopes take a mighty tumble over the past three weeks. On March 12, the Pacers were closing in on
Milwaukee for the No. 6 spot. Now the Pacers and Heat (34-43), the two Eastern Conference finalists in 2013 and 2014, are tied at No. 9 behind Boston (35-42) and Brooklyn (35-41), which currently hold the final two playoff seeds. When George entered the game with 5:34 left in the first quarter, the hometown fans gave him a standing ovation and waved yellow signs that read “Welcome Back PG.” The reaction never really dissipated. Fans booed when George was called for his first foul. They roared each time he touched the ball. They gave him a rousing ovation when he made his first shot, a 12-foot fadeaway to his right, grimaced when he missed a breakaway layup that he normally would have dunked and erupted again when he made the two 3s to put away the dreaded Heat. The support came from all corners. His parents, sister, brother and daughter all attended. It was quite a season debut for George, a little more than eight months after his right leg snapped during a Team USA
scrimmage in Las Vegas — and much sooner than anyone anticipated when the gruesome injury occurred Aug. 1. “There have been a lot of injury stories this year, but that’s one of the good stories,” Spoelstra said about 75 minutes before tip-off between the two teams that met in the last two Eastern Conference finals. “We all saw it on TV. Even from a competitor’s standpoint it was great news to see that he was back out on the court. Even though it has to come on our game, who cares? The fact that an injured player is back — we’re not hiding from competition.” “He’s handled everything magnificently,” Krzyzewski said during a news conference Sunday just a few blocks away from the Pacers’ home floor. “Certainly we hope that he has a complete comeback and helps the Pacers in their playoff hunt.” Krzyzewski was coaching the American team when George was injured. He invited George to return to Las Vegas this summer for a three-day event for players who hope to be on the 2016 U.S. Olympic Team.
Ryan From Page C1
coached the U.S. Olympic team and some of the college’s greatest players: Grant Hill, Bobby Hurley, Christian Laettner, Elton Brand. He calls his adult players “my kids” and has a biting, self-deprecating sense of humor. Krzyzewski has been a spell-check challenge since he took over at Duke in 1980 and started taking on North Carolina’s Dean Smith. We know Coach K has advanced to 12 Final Fours and won national titles in 1991, 1992, 2001 and 2010. Through all that time, another coach was building a tremendous, subterranean career on a local cable-outlet station. People still may not know that Bo Ryan has won four NCAA titles. He won one, in fact, in 1991, the same year Duke did. Ryan said Sunday he believed the training table meal was hot dogs. “I think there was a stringer — one stringer — from the Madison paper that actually showed up and covered the game,” he said. It irks Ryan that the gap between divisions in the NCAA is perceived to be as wide as the continental divide. Few people considered last week, as John Calipari’s Kentucky team was chasing a perfect season, that there was one coach in the Final Four who had already done it. Ryan won four NCAA Division III titles at University of Wisconsin-Platteville. Two were perfect seasons. His 1994-95 team went 31-0 and his 199798 team went 30-0. As Calipari was trying to explain the pressures of navigating Kentucky to this year’s 38-0 start, Ryan was receiving text messages from former players. Ryan said the gist was this: “Aren’t those people smart enough to know there’s been other undefeated teams in men’s basketball?” Ryan said there was no need to reply. “No,” Ryan said. “They’re not smart enough. ... They don’t feel it’s relevant in this Division 1 environment.” Comparing the journeys of WisconsinPlatteville and Kentucky, of course, is apples and oranges. Yet, aren’t they in the same coaching-tree fruit family? We know now that two great coaches can get to the same game from completely different access roads. Ryan took the road less traveled, yet it still ended here, in Indianapolis, with a chance to bring home Wisconsin’s first NCAA title since 1941. Krzyzewski was a superstar in his mid-50s, before Ryan landed his first major-level job. Few probably know that Ryan, not Krzyzewski, was the most winning NCAA coach of the 1990s. He went 352-76 in his 15 seasons at Platteville, which earned him an upgrade to Wisconsin-Milwaukee. He was still a curious, and not entirely popular, choice to take over at Wisconsin when Dick Bennett retired in 2001. Ryan, though, was a grinder who knew all he needed was time to prove that coaching is coaching. He wasn’t Gerry Faust coming out of high school to coach at Notre Dame. Ryan knew his teaching tenets were colorblind and bulletproof. He valued “points per possession” years before analytics experts such as Ken Pomeroy made it must-know information available through subscription. Ryan understood he was never going to win the way Kentucky and Duke win, by coaching up, each year, the 10 or 15 best high school players in America. Ryan knew he could win by coaching up a better grade of player than he could recruit at Platteville. “A lot of people are talented coming out of high school,” Ryan said. “It’s what they do with what they have.” Frank Kaminsky, this year’s Wisconsin star, didn’t arrive in Madison as an All-American. He will be leaving, however, as the national player of the year. Ryan said he mainly wanted Kaminsky because “it seemed like it mattered to him whether or not he won a game or lost a game.” Ryan got lucky, too, that in-state star Sam Dekker, out of Sheboygan, wanted to be a Badger all his life. Kaminsky and Dekker, under Ryan’s tutelage, have become the top two scorers in the tournament. Kaminsky has scored 111 points (22.2 per game), and Dekker has scored 103 (20.6 per game). Ryan also knew minutes after the Kentucky win that his best coaching was needed to avoid a post-euphoria letdown. He was reminded of the U.S. Olympic hockey team’s epic win over Russia in 1980. It was only the semifinal, and the U.S. still had to defeat Finland for the gold. “I’ve been reminded on a few text messages that Finland is Duke,” Ryan joked. “So, yes, we know we’ve got 40 more (minutes), as I’ve said a thousand times. We know we’ve got some work to do.” It should have come as no surprise on Sunday when word leaked that Calipari, hours after he lost to Ryan, was elected to the Hall of Fame. Ryan didn’t make it. If you understand anything about his career arc after reading this story, you know that, in his life, things take time. He and Krzyzewski both won titles in 1991, yes, and will play for another title on Monday. They step on the court as coaches who could not have more, or less, in common. “So you ask me what it was like?” Ryan said when asked about 1991 and now. “It wasn’t like this.”

Do You HEaR BuT noT unDERSTanD? More than 30 million Americans of all ages are affected by hearing loss — which can range from mild to profound. If you suspect you have hearing loss, take this simple test. YES
NO
q q You can hear, but you can’t understand. Among the first sounds that “disappear” are high‑pitched sounds like women’s and children’s voices, and confusion among words such as “dime” and “time.” q q You are continually asking people to repeat words or phrases, though they feel they are speaking loud enough. q q You find yourself complaining that people are mumbling or slurring their words. q q You have difficulty understanding what’s being said, unless you are facing the speaker. q q You prefer the TV or radio louder than others do. q q You have difficulty understanding conversation within a group of people. If you answered “yes” to at least two of these questions, you may have hearing loss and need to have your hearing tested. Call today to schedule your FREE hearing screening and evaluation.
See how far Technology has come!
Do people seem to mumble especially when there is background noise? is your hearing loss due to earwax?
