Stranded workers struggle MicroGreen closed its doors without warning, and one employee says it still owes them about $20,000.

Polymers are trying to figure out what comes after the cleantech startup company suddenly closed its doors earlier this month.

About 30 of the company’s former workforce of 163 attended a two-hour session last week about job-search resources and unemployment insurance. The event was hosted by Workforce Snohomish.

Most lingered at the Arlington Boys & Girls Club to talk

and comfort each other. Some said they were still in shock at how quickly the company came undone.

EVERETT — The Everett School District is still trying to sell the historic Longfellow building.

Since the century-old building went on the market in December, Everett Public Schools has received just one letter of interest for the building, from a startup group called The HandUp Project, which sought to build a living center and life skills program for homeless adults.

“They did not really demonstrate that they had the financial capacity to purchase or to upgrade this building,” said Mike Gunn, the district’s executive director of facilities and operations. “Nor did they have the experience in upgrading or managing a facility of this size.”

The district had estimated the building and its 8.1 acre lot are worth between $2.2 million and $3.9 million, but that it would cost $7.8 million to renovate it and bring it up to code.

Right now the district only uses the building for some storage, and lets the police and fire departments conduct training exercises inside it.

But even in that capacity, keeping the electricity and heat on and the security system operational, the building costs the district $78,000 per year, Gunn said.

Robert Smiley, the founder and chief executive of the HandUp Project, said the district’s assessment of the group’s qualifications was inaccurate, and thinks there might be resistance from the city to building a residence for the homeless in the current political environment.

“We think it’s something else other than the financial issue that’s the problem,” Smiley said.

Smiley also believes there is

LAKE STEVENS — In a crowded cafeteria, more than 100 first-grade students chatter excitedly as they eat their lunches. Recess is next, 15 minutes of afternoon freedom before they start the second half of the school day.

There’s not enough room in the cafeteria for the two kindergarten classes that share the same lunch time. They eat on the stage, where tables are set up and taken down each day.

That space also serves as a physical education classroom, music room, after-school activity area, occasional staff meeting room and a church on Sundays.

Staff at Sunnycrest Elementary School on 99th Avenue Northeast have gotten good at using their space efficiently and creatively, Principal Timothy Haines said. The school has 203 more students than it was designed to hold. It’s one of the Lake Stevens School District’s most crowded elementaries, all six of which are over capacity.

of a layoff. The company’s founder, meanwhile, apparently has moved on to a new venture.

Like many startups, MicroGreen relied on cash infusions from investors, and it had growing pains as it increased production to meet major airlines’ orders for its insulated InCycle Cup. But the end came so quickly, said some employees, that they were not paid in full on April 3 when managers handed out final checks after announcing that day the company was closing.

A contractor said that she tried this month to deposit a check from MicroGreen but was told that its bank

account had been blocked.

As of last week, the company still owed employees about $20,000 in expenses, said one former manager.

On April 1, one of the company’s main lenders, the Confederated Tribes of the Grand Ronde in Oregon, called an $8 million loan it made to MicroGreen in 2013. The loan had been made through the tribes’ investment vehicle, Ilihi.

In all, the tribes put $31 million into MicroGreen, most of which was in the form of direct investment, not loans.

The tribes did not immediately respond to a request for comment Friday about the outstanding financial obligations of MicroGreen.

In the rush to close

down, the company never filed a worker adjustment and retraining notification with the state, said Janelle Guthrie, a spokeswoman for the Employment Security Department. Under federal law, companies are required to file such notice 60 days before a worker is laid off.

Failure to do so can result in companies having to pay penalties to affected workers. But for that to happen, a worker has to file a complaint in U.S. District Court, which enforces the requirements, she said.

The sudden closure had some employees wondering how they will make ends meet.

“I’ve got nothing coming in,” said Jim Stockwell, a former hourly worker at

MicroGreen. “I’ve got to make a car payment. I’ve got to pay rent.”

He joined the company last fall. He said he was attracted by the benefits — something he didn’t have at his previous job — and the chance to get in early at a company that had seemingly limitless potential.

MicroGreen was supplying eco-friendly, lightweight cups to air carriers including Alaska Airlines, Allegiant Air, Virgin America and United Airlines.

Commercial air carriers made up a thin slice of the potential global market for plastic products using the company’s technology. The market’s worth was an estimated $50 billion, according to

MicroGreen’s website.

While many of the company’s 163 employees figure out unemployment insurance and start job searches, MicroGreen’s founder, Krishna Nadella has already started a new company, according to his LinkedIn account.

His profile on the professional networking site lists him as founder of a company called Aiooa as of this month.

A handful of former MicroGreen employees are also connected to Aiooa on LinkedIn. No further information about the company is available online, and Nadella did not respond to a request for an interview about the new venture.

MicroGreen grew out

of technology Nadella researched as a doctoral student in mechanical engineering at the University of Washington. He founded the company with two fellow UW students in 2002.

Among Nadella’s biggest fans are some former hourly wage workers at MicroGreen. They said they would go back to work for him in a heartbeat.

They described him as a visionary leader who also deeply cared about his employees.

“I would do anything for Mr. Nadella,” Stockwell said.

Other employees echoed his comment.

help homeless people with housing, job placement and life skills.

“We are not a mission; we are not where people can come in off the street and hang out,” Smiley said.

He added that he’ll keep working on securing financing in the hopes of changing the district’s mind.

The district intended to

raze the Longfellow building, which is located at 3715 Oakes Ave., and create additional parking for the nearby athletic fields.

In December, however, the Everett School Board heeded those who wanted to preserve the historic building, and gave the district four months to try and sell or lease the building.

That window has now

closed, and the district will try to figure out what to do next.

“We have basically taken it off the market and we’re going to be doing some further evaluation of the condition of the building,” Gunn said.

He said the district would document the Longfellow building’s historic character and listen to anyone

who would come forward with a a viable offer to buy or lease it.

The district is also in talks to sell its former building at 4730 Colby Ave. The likely buyer is the YMCA of Snohomish County, which is seeking a new home for its Everett facility.

Gunn wouldn’t comment about the talks, but said the district likely will

present the board with an update on the Colby building at one of its May meetings.

The district has retained Long Bay Enterprises and Century Pacific as its agents in the sale of both buildings.

550. Those numbers don’t include portable classrooms set up on campus, Taylor said. Ideally, the schools wouldn’t have portables, which are built to be temporary classrooms rather than permanent fixtures.

Overall, the district’s elementaries are designed to hold a total of 3,100 students. Enrollment is 3,886, putting the district 786 students over capacity.

Skyline Elementary is the least crowded, with four students more than

the recommended 500.

Skyline and Mt. Pilchuck elementaries house special education programs with extra space needs, so enrollment there tends to be a little lower, Taylor said. Still, Mt. Pilchuck has 609 students on a campus meant for 500. Glenwood is 95 students over capacity and Highland is 146 over.

Hillcrest and Sunnycrest are the most crowded; Hillcrest has 229 students more than it was designed for, and Sunnycrest has 203.

There are seven portables at Sunnycrest. The last one was added about seven years ago, and no more can be installed under local building requirements, Haines said.

Sunnycrest was built in 1969 and updated in 2008 with new windows, carpet, paint, mechanical systems, a front office and to meet earthquake safety standards. The size of the school didn’t change.

“We have a couple of spaces that are not intended to be classrooms

that are being used as classrooms,” Haines said.

Rooms about half the size of a full classroom have up to 27 kindergartners in them but don’t have sinks or direct bathroom access.

“A lot of time and energy goes into creatively thinking about how to maximize our options,” Haines said.

“It’s working, but it’s not ideal.”

Because of the crowding, Lake Stevens is not accepting new out-of-district students between kindergarten and fifth grade for the 2015-16 school year.

Normally, families can request variances so kids can attend school in Lake Stevens even if they don’t live here. Variances for middle and high school students are being accepted on a case-by-case basis, Taylor said, but new elementary variances are frozen.

“This was not a decision we made lightly, and we understand the impact this has on families who already have students in our schools and are now attempting to enroll a younger sibling,” Superintendent Amy Beth Cook wrote in a letter to parents. “However, we have to ensure that our schools have enough capacity to house the students who live within our district.”

The freeze does not affect out-of-district students already enrolled in Lake Stevens schools.

Cardiac law inspired by Mill Creek teen’s mom

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — A newly signed law aims to ensure young athletes and their coaches are better able to recognize and respond when someone is felled by sudden cardiac arrest.

The new law calls for creation of an online educational pamphlet about sudden cardiac arrest that student athletes must review before they can participate in an athletic program. They and their parents or

guardians must submit a signed form indicating they have read the material.

The law also requires coaches to complete an online course every three years and sign a certificate indicating they complied.

Gov. Jay Inslee signed Senate Bill 5083 on Friday, and it will take effect this summer.

Washington will be the seventh state with such a law, and the goal is to see it enacted nationwide, said Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe, D-Bothell, the prime

sponsor of the bill.

Sudden cardiac arrest is the result of an unexpected failure of proper heart function that can occur during or immediately after exercise. It is a leading cause of death in youth athletes.

McAuliffe said she introduced it after meeting Darla Varrenti, founder of the Nick of Time Foundation in Mill Creek.

The nonprofit organization is named after Nick Varrenti, Darla’s son, who died in 2004 at 16 from sudden cardiac arrest after high school football practice.

The group is focused on spreading awareness about hidden heart problems in young people.

The foundation has held sudden-cardiac-arrest awareness events and CPR classes at dozens of schools in Washington and has arranged for the screening of more than 13,000 students for heart abnormalities, according to the organization.

Under the law, the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association will team up with the foundation and the University of Washington Medicine

Center for Sports Cardiology to develop the online materials.

“I am a so glad we are raising awareness about this important issue,” McAuliffe said. “No family should suffer the terrible loss and heartbreak of losing a child to sudden cardiac arrest.”

SB 5083 passed by wide margins — 46-0 in the Senate and 79-18 in the House. Republican Reps. Dave Hayes of Camano Island and Elizabeth Scott of Monroe voted against the bill.

Each neighborhood manages its own Nextdoor website.

Every neighbor who joins signs in with their real name.

f you live in Lake Stevens, you probably won’t be surprised to find the city on a financial group’s Top 10 Worst Commutes in the region.

Lake Stevens was No. 8 on the NerdWallet list, which primarily looked at commute times, but also factored in gas prices, insurance premiums, and the numbers of commuters who drive alone and who take transit.

All those other factors are good to have for the overall picture.

But for families like the Guthries, it’s the time spent on the road that’s the worst.

How bad is it?

It’s so bad, the Guthries are planning to move away from Lake Stevens after six years in their tidy suburban oasis.

“It used to take 40 minutes, and now it sometimes takes an hour and 40 minutes,” said Chris Guthrie, who carpools with his wife, Fiona, most days to their jobs at different companies in Redmond.

Having a built-in carpool buddy hasn’t helped much.

“There are some days when the carpool lane is slower than the general lanes,” Guthrie said.

Getting to the interstate is usually the hardest part.

“With Lake Stevens being where it is, there are really only two options to go south,” Guthrie said. “You either have to go over the trestle — which is a complete nightmare — or you have to go down Highway 9,” a slog made slower by the increasing numbers of drivers opting for the lesser of two evils.

“It’s to the point now where it doesn’t matter what path you take. You’re going to get stuck in traffic.”

Then there’s the drive home.

They leave at 5, but often don’t make it home until 6:30 or later.

“That makes for a long day,” Guthrie said.

A: In high school or total? Probably 12 or more.

Q: Any particular position?

A: This year I had to play post just because we were a smaller team.

Q: Did you have a favorite class or subject in school?

A: I liked all of them.

I can’t pick a favorite. I really like weight training. It doesn’t feel like a

class. You’re just with your friends and working hard every day.

Q: What are some of your favorite memories of growing up in Arlington?

A: I’ve always been involved in sports, just growing up and meeting a lot of people through sports.

Q: Are there any athletes you’ve looked up to?

A: Randi Richardson.

She was a basketball player here. I’ve really looked up to her since I was a little, little basketball player.

She was really good and she had worked with me before and she was an assistant coach at one time.

Q: Is it bittersweet to be graduating soon?

A: The real world is coming but it’s also something to look forward to.

are the only reason they haven’t left already.

“The commute’s not going to get any better,” Guthrie said.

The number of new housing developments going up in Lake Stevens probably push that from fear to certifiable omen.

It was the housing that first drew families like the Guthries, of course.

“You were getting so much land for the money, so much house. So we thought, well an extra 10, 15 minutes on the freeway is no big deal. But we had no idea the commute was going to get as bad as it

has,” Guthrie said.

Other Snohomish County cities fell further down the Worst Commute list, which ranked 45 of the region’s larger cities.

Monroe and Snohomish just missed “the worst” (of the worst) at Nos. 11 and 12. Marysville came in at No. 15.

On the flip side, Stanwood residents rated the best commute among Snohomish County cities, ranking at 42 out of 45.

Everett followed at No. 38.

Striping and speeds in the roundabout Karen Bell of Arlington writes: “I like the new roundabout at 84th and

Highway 9, but I have seen many of the vehicles traveling much faster than 15 mph, especially those headed north/south on Highway 9. They may slow down to 30. Is the speed limit 15 in roundabouts?

Why is that fact only signaled by a tiny, easily overlooked sign at least a thousand feet away from the roundabout?”

Tom Pearce of the Washington State Department of Transportation responds: “Roundabouts do not have speed limits beyond the regular limit on the roads, but there are recommended speeds.

In general roundabouts are designed for speeds of 25 mph or less. The

roundabout at 84th and State Route 9 is designed to have one through lane and one lane for vehicles taking the next right, but we were only able to put down temporary striping, and it’s wearing off.

Because of this, some drivers are trying to use both lanes as through lanes. This spring we’ll add permanent markings, which will make it clear that drivers on the right need to take the next right and exit the roundabout.

WSDOT has a good explanation of how to drive in roundabouts at www. wsdot.wa.gov/Safety/ roundabouts.”

New carpool on I-405 stays at 3 An amendment from state Rep. Mark Harmsworth, R-Mill Creek, that would have delayed a recent rule change on I-405 carpools has hit a dead end.

Express toll lanes are coming this fall to 17 miles of I-405, from Lynnwood to Bellevue. In addition to carpools, vanpools and transit, single drivers will be able to access the faster-moving lanes by paying a fee that varies with congestion and demand.

Along with those changes, the number of people required to be in a vehicle to use the lane for free during peak hours is going up, from two to three.

Harmsworth’s amendment would have allowed free travel in the HOV lanes for carpools with two or more riders for the first 180 days of the rule change. During those 180 days the state Department of Transportation would study traffic to determine if free travel for two-plus carpools in HOV lanes was practical and not disruptive to traffic.

19th Avenue Dental helps get your smile back

T

ooth loss can impact lives in so many ways. It’s not just the loss of teeth, the impact on chewing and the detrimental health effect it can have on your remaining teeth and bone structure. Tooth loss also means the loss of a smile and the loss of confidence in yourself.

At 19th Avenue Dental in Everett, Dr. Shuichi Yamaguchi understands what tooth loss can mean to an individual. That’s why he has dedicated his career to helping people get their smile back — whether through crowns, dental implants or dentures.

With more than 35 years of experience, Yamaguchi takes into consideration your individual needs, feelings and goals when creating a plan for your smile restoration. He has equipped his office with the latest state-ofthe-art technology and a caring staff to ensure that your dental experience is as comfortable and convenient as possible.

He also ensures that your new smile is as natural looking as possible.

Yamaguchi crafts his own dentures and crowns. This way he knows his patients are getting a perfect fit and natural appearance as well as functionality.

Creating crowns and dentures onsite also means patients are able to get their dental work

done faster and more efficiently.

When there is a loss of multiple teeth, dentures or partial dentures are usually the best alternative. 19th Avenue Dental offers complete dentures, precision partial dentures, immediate dentures and over-dentures.

Complete dentures are what most people think of when they think about dentures. Complete dentures replace all of the teeth in your mouth.

They fit securely over the gums and look just like your own teeth. As bone structure changes over time and with age, people with complete dentures may need to have them adjusted for comfort and functionality.

Immediate dentures are the ones many denture patients ask about first. As the name implies, immediate dentures can be worn the same day — right after teeth have been extracted. This saves the embarrassment of being temporarily without dentures while the gums heal following extractions.

The trade-off is that immediate dentures will need to be adjusted as healing takes place. But most people find this trade-off acceptable in order not to be without their dentures.

Another newer type of denture are over-dentures. These are ideal for patients who still have

strong root structure or who have dental implants. Over-dentures are firmly seated onto metal caps. They offer secure functionality as well as an attractive appearance and tend to require less realignment than other types of dentures.

Another type of denture is the partial.

Partials can be used when there are still sound teeth remaining around the gap in your smile. In fact, a partial can help to preserve the remaining teeth by providing support.

As the name implies, partials are not a full denture. They fill in the missing teeth and usually attach with a metal framework.

But if a person has just one tooth missing, they are likely a candidate for an implant. An implant is a titanium post that is implanted into your jaw to hold an expertly crafted, natural looking replacement tooth in place. Implants look and feel just like your real teeth.

Yamaguchi’s state-ofthe-art equipment is able to expertly plan and place your implant for best results.

But perhaps you have a tooth that is simply cracked or broken and you’re worried it may have to come out. If the tooth still has a sound root structure, it may be a candidate for a crown.

Some Oregon hotels resist tsunami awareness initiative Associated Press SEASIDE, Ore. — Some hotels on the Oregon coast are resisting a new tsunami awareness initiative.

The city of Seaside has given hotels key holders that contain warnings of a potential tsunami and evacuation instructions, in an effort to inform visitors about the risks, Fire Division Chief Chris Dugan said.

Area hotels have the option to incorporate the sleeves into their safety plan.

The key sleeves are the main feature of Seaside’s new awareness initiative for hospitality industries.

But while some hotels and other businesses are using them, The Daily Astorian reportedothers have “mixed emotions.”

Hotel patrons often gasp or respond with anxiety when they see the warnings, because being greeted up front with a tsunami warning while on vacation can be unnerving, said manager of the Hi-Tide

Resort Debra Hudson.

No one has been appreciative of the warning, Hudson said, although she believes the key holders are effective for increasing awareness.

“It’s kind of a catch-22,” Hudson said, adding that her hotel may discontinue using them.

The key holders give instructions to drop, cover and hold on during an earthquake, then move inland quickly or use a local, evacuation route; and

lastly, wait for an official “all clear” before returning to the beach.

The overall project cost of about $5,000 is financed through state funds and is free to the hotels.

Some hotels decided not to use the key sleeves.

Best Western declined, citing a corporate policy that prohibits using any other key envelope but the ones corporate approves.

And Worldmark by Wyndham said it already has an evacuation plan

that incorporates directing people to the facility’s parking structure, said Jon Rahl, director of tourism for the Seaside Visitors Bureau.

Sand & Sea, which does use the new tool, said guests haven’t had any negative reactions. The hotel also has binders in each unit with a page about tsunamis that provide evacuation instructions and maps.

“Any little bit of information will help them in case we do have a tsunami,” general manager Mary

Vellutini said.

Finding a balance between enticing visitors to come to Seaside and spreading the word about potential hazards such as tsunamis “is something this community is always going to have a challenge with,” Dugan, the fire chief, said.

The state also offers hotels other products to warn visitors, including a Living on Shaky Ground magazine in English and Spanish, a two-sided poster on earthquakes and

Granger bans pot business for 6 months The City Council in the central Washington community of Granger has approved a six-month moratorium on the growing, processing or selling of recreational marijuana.

The council passed the rule at a meeting April 14.

Granger City Clerk Liliana Torres said the city previously had nothing in place regarding the businesses.

The council scheduled a May 26 public hearing on the issue.

Vancouver: Medication stolen from Walgreens

Clark County sheriff’s deputies are investigating a rash of burglaries at several Walgreens stores involving stolen medication.

The Columbian reported that deputies responded to an alarm at the Walgreens in the Fairgrounds neighborhood at about 5:30 a.m.

Saturday, but didn’t locate a suspect.

The person pried open the front doors and used a rock to smash the window of the pharmacy section. Once inside, the person grabbed an

unknown amount of medication before fleeing. Sgt. Craig Randall said the same thing has happened to four or five other Walgreens stores over the past few weeks.

Walla Walla: Smoking ban in parks considered Walla Walla may join the list of cities that have banned smoking in public parks. City officials plan to discuss the possibility at a community meeting Tuesday.

A previous meeting drew passionate pleas

from people on both sides of the debate.

Some smokers say they already feel under siege with high cigarette taxes and they don’t feel it’s fair to be told where they can smoke.

Supporters of a smoking ban say people going outside to use a park deserve to breathe clean, smokefree air.

Idaho: Man is accused of conning Idaho prosecutors said a man who’s lived recently in Coeur d’Alene and Spokane used elaborate lies to swindle thousands of

dollars from women he met online or in bars, some of whom he’s also accused of raping.

Prosecutors said Michael McNearney Jr., 25, used lies to gain women’s trust and affection before convincing them to give him hundreds or thousands of dollars.

The Coeur d’Alene Press reported that a magistrate in Kootenai County said McNearney should face rape charges in District Court.

He also ruled that prosecutors showed probable cause to proceed with charges of theft by deception and theft of financial transaction cards.

Oregon: Anesthesiologist’s victim wins $950K

A woman who was molested by an anesthesiologist while under sedation has been awarded $950,000 in compensatory and punitive damages in her case against a hospital in The Dalles.

The woman, a former hospital employee, is one of a dozen women who have sued the hospital. In 2012, Dr. Fredrick Field was sentenced to 23 years in prison on abuse and rape convictions.

Survivor claims smugglers locked hundreds in hold of capsized boat

By Frances D’Emilio

APTV

Migrants are seated, surrounded by emergency relief workers aboard a vessel at the Italian port of Messina on Saturday as they prepare to be processed at the quayside. UNHCR said Sunday the search and recovery rescue operation is under way after a boat carrying migrants overturned north of Libya.

Boat ‘would have sunk’ Eighteen ships joined the rescue effort, but only 28 survivors and 24 bodies had been pulled from the water by nightfall, Renzi said.

These small numbers make more sense if hundreds of people were locked in the hold, because with so much weight down below, “surely the boat would have sunk,” said Gen. Antonino Iraso, of the Italian Border Police, which has deployed boats in the operation.

Prosecutor Giovanni Salvi told The Associated Press that a survivor from Bangladesh described the situation on the fishing boat to prosecutors who interviewed him in a hospital.

The man said about 300 people were in the hold, locked in their by the smugglers, when the vessel set out. He said that of the 950 who set out aboard the doomed boat, some 200 were women and several dozen were children.

Salvi stressed that there was no confirmation yet of the man’s account and that the investigation was ongoing.

Iraso said the sea in the area is too deep for divers, suggesting that the final toll may never be known. The sea off Libya runs as deep as 3 miles or more.

“How can it be that we daily are witnessing a tragedy?” asked Renzi, who strategized with his top ministers ahead of Monday’s European Union

GUARDIA COSTIERA

meeting in Luxembourg, where foreign ministers scrambled to add stopping the smugglers to their agenda.

Resurgent right-wing political parties have made a rallying cry out of a rising tide of illegal migration. So far this year, 35,000 asylum seekers and migrants have reached Europe and more than 900 are known to have died trying.

Demand for action With Sunday’s tragedy, demands for decisive action were going mainstream, as authorities from France, Spain, Germany and Britain joined calls for a unified response.

“Europe can do more and Europe must do more,” said Martin Schulz, president of the European Parliament. “It is a shame and a confession of failure how many countries run away from responsibility and how little money we provide for rescue missions.”

“Words won’t do anymore,” Spain’s Prime Minister,

Mariano Rajoy, told a political rally.

Renzi said he too wants action, but he rejected calls by some Italian lawmakers for a naval blockade. That would only “wind up helping the smugglers” since military ships would be there to rescue any migrants, and they wouldn’t be able to return passengers to chaos and violence in Libya.

Meanwhile Sunday, rescuers were “checking who is alive and who is dead” in an area littered with debris and oil from the capsized ship. Maltese Prime Minister Joseph Muscat, whose island nation joined the effort, said only 50 survived, and called it the “biggest human tragedy of the last few years.”

The 66-foot vessel may have overturned because migrants rushed to one side of the craft late Saturday night when they saw an approaching Portuguese-flagged container ship, the King Jacob, which was sent to the area by Italy’s Coast Guard. The ship’s crew

A migrant receives first aid upon disembarking at Palermo’s harbor, Italy, after being rescued at sea Saturday.

“immediately deployed rescue boats, gangway, nets and life rings,” a spokesman for its owner said.

Asked whether migrants rushed to one side as the Portuguese vessel pulled close, Iraso told Sky TG24 TV that “the dynamics aren’t clear. But this is not the first time that has happened.”

Renzi praised the container ship for quickly responding on what would become its fifth recent rescue operation.

“Since the waters of the Mediterranean Sea are not too cold at the moment, authorities hope to find more survivors,” said International Organization for Migration spokesman Joel Millman.

“There are fears there could be hundreds of dead,” Pope Francis said in St. Peter’s Square, lending his moral authority to the political calls for action by urging “the international community to act decisively and promptly, to prevent similar tragedies from occurring again.”

On pot holiday, ‘420 is the new everything’

By Rob Hotakainen McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — In 1990, Steven Hager saw a flier that had circulated at a Grateful Dead concert in Oakland, California, urging people to meet at Mount Tamalpais at 4:20 p.m. on April 20 for some “420”-ing, the number that had become code for smoking marijuana in California.

Hager, then the editor of High Times magazine, had never heard of it, but he was intrigued. Hager did some research, discovering that the 420 code had first been used in 1971, when five friends at San Rafael High School smoked pot each day at 4:20 p.m.

“I thought, ‘This is important!’ And you know everybody thought I had lost my mind,” said Hager, 63, of New York City. “I started talking to people and I said we will build everything around 420 — 420 is the new everything.”

As marijuana lovers mark their unofficial national holiday Monday on April 20, or 4/20, it’s a testament to Hager’s marketing powers.

Oklahoma marks 20th anniversary of deadly bombing About 1,000 people gathered Sunday to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, which killed 168 people in the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building. Former President Bill Clinton was among the speakers.

Timothy McVeigh, an Army veteran with strong anti-government views, planned the bombing as revenge for the deadly standoff between the FBI and Branch Davidians in Waco, Texas, that killed more than 70 people on April 19, 1993 — exactly two years earlier. He was convicted on federal murder and conspiracy charges in 1997 and executed in 2001.

His Army buddy, Terry Nichols, was convicted on federal and state bombingrelated charges and is serving multiple life sentences in a federal prison.

Associated Press

ROME — A smuggler’s boat crammed with hundreds of people overturned off Libya’s coast as rescuers approached, causing what could be the Mediterranean’s deadliest known migrant tragedy and intensifying pressure on the European Union Sunday to finally meet demands for decisive action.

Survivor accounts of the number aboard varied, with the Italian Coast Guard saying that the capsized boat had a capacity for ‘’hundreds” of people. Italian prosecutors said a Bangladeshi survivor flown to Sicily for treatment told them 950 people were aboard, including hundreds who had been locked in the hold by smugglers. Earlier, authorities said a survivor told them 700 migrants were on board.

It was not immediately clear if they were referring to the same survivor, and Premier Matteo Renzi said Italian authorities were “not in a position to confirm or verify” how many were on board when the boat set out from Libya.

ACROSS THE U.S.

BRENNAN LINSLEY / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Partygoers listen to music and smoke marijuana during the annual 4/20 marijuana festival in Denver’s Civic Center Park on Saturday.

Events are scheduled in 420-friendly locales across the country, including 420 smoke-ins, 420 concerts, 420 bake-offs, $4.20 joints sold at 420 pot shops, happy hours at 4:20 p.m., 420 club crawls.

People will take 420-friendly shuttles to 420-friendly hotels. Couples will go on 420-friendly dates. And voters will talk to 420-friendly candidates.

Pot lobbyists say the tone

of the day has changed as marijuana has moved into the mainstream, with polls showing a majority of Americans backing legalization and voters in Colorado, Washington, Alaska, Oregon and the District of Columbia already approving the drug for recreational use.

“Most of our chapters are in celebration mode,” said Allen St. Pierre, executive director of the National Organization for

the Reform of Marijuana Laws.

“That was not the case 10 years ago; 4/20 was a day of protest.”

Signs of 420 have popped up everywhere and are in high demand. Pot fans cheered when some of the clocks in the 1994 film “Pulp Fiction” were set at 4:20, and in Colorado, the state Transportation Department responded to multiple thefts of the 420-milepost sign on Interstate 70 last year by putting up a new marker numbered 419.99.

Seattle will host the 420 Fest, while a 420 cannabis bus tour in Tacoma will take visitors to pot shops. The $10 tour will include speakers who will explain such things as why people get the munchies and what to do if you get too high, but participants won’t be allowed to smoke any pot.

“This is definitely not a party bus,” said Angela Jossy, often known as the “Duchess of Downtown,” who’s organizing the tour. But she added that the day has no significance for her. “I’m actually not a big pot smoker myself. This is really about supporting local business.”

Minnesota: 6 arrested in U.S. in terror connection Six people have been arrested in connection with a terrorism investigation into youths who have traveled or tried to travel to Syria to fight with militants, including the Islamic State group, authorities in Minnesota said Sunday. A spokesman for the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s Office said the arrests were made in Minneapolis and San Diego but there is no threat to public safety. Spokesman Ben Petok did not give details about the charges. He said more information would be released Monday.

Los Angeles: Sea animal stolen, another escapes Los Angeles police said four people snatched either a seal or sea lion pup from Dockweiler State Beach early Sunday. Officer Rosario Herrera said witnesses told responding officers that the group wrapped the animal in a blanket and took off in a car. While one pup was taken, another sea lion pup managed to escape. Peter Wallerstein, president of Marine Animal Rescue, warned that while sea lions may be cute, they are wild animals with strong bites.

AROUND THE WORLD Libya: Islamic State video purported to show killing of Ethiopian Christians A new Islamic State video distributed on social media Sunday apparently shows the shootings and beheadings of two groups of Ethiopian Christians in Libya. The video purports to show the killings in two locations, one described as being in the country’s south and the other a sunny Mediterranean beach.

The same English-speaking fighter who presided over similar killings depicted in a video released in February declares, “We are back again.”

Iran: Commander rejects nuclear inspections International inspectors won’t be allowed access to military bases in any deal with world powers to curb Tehran’s nuclear program, a top Iranian commander said. “They will not even be permitted to inspect the most normal military site in their dreams,” said Brig. Gen. Hossein Salami, deputy head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps, according to the state-run Press TV news channel. “Visiting a military base by a foreign inspector would mean the occupation of our land because all our defense secrets are there,” Salami said.

“Even talking about the subject means national humiliation.”

Japan: Tsunami warning lifted after earthquake Japanese authorities issued a warning for a tsunami of up to 3 feet after a strong earthquake struck Monday in the seas south of Okinawa and east of Taiwan. The warning was cancelled just over an hour later. The Japan Meteorological Agency said the epicenter of the magnitude 6.8 quake was at a shallow point near the Yonaguni islands. The tsunami warning remained in force for over an hour. It was unclear if any tsunami had hit shores of islands in the area, and television footage of a nearby island showed calm seas. The public broadcaster NHK said there were no initial reports of damage.

As prices drop, LEDs light up the streets

By Jim Davis The Herald Business Journal

It’s easy to see the attraction with LED streetlights: They use less electricity and last much longer than traditional streetlights.

Until recently, they were also far more expensive.

With recent price drops, the Snohomish County Public Utility District is changing more than 36,000 streetlights across the county to LED streetlights.

The PUD started last year in the north part of the county and the effort is expected to continue for several years, said John Gregory, the PUD’s distribution services manager.

“Seattle City Light started two years before us,” Gregory said.

“We took a lot of lessons learned from them but they paid a lot more money than we did.”

More and more businesses also are switching to LED outdoor lights, said Shelley Pattison, a PUD executive account manager.

That’s in part, she said, because of incentives provided by the PUD, but also because of the softer, white light LEDs provide.

“If you’re in the business of selling cars, you want that beautiful red Tahoe to look beautiful and red no matter what time of day,” Pattison said.

XFinity Arena switched out its lighting system to LEDs last August just before the Everett Silvertips hockey season got under way.

The PUD maintains thousands of streetlights on its power poles within cities and in unincorporated areas around the county.

Cities like Everett and Marysville maintain thousands of other streetlights as well. (In fact, both cities are expected to change their lights soon. The city of Everett received grants to change about 1,800 streetlights this summer.)

To switch to LEDs — lightemitting diodes — the PUD needs to change out the fixture of the light.

The PUD priced 100-watt LED streetlights five years ago, but found each one cost about $450, Gregory said.

Traditional HPS lights cost about $125 at the time.

Last year, the agency made the plunge when the price dropped to $225 a streetlight.

The agency replaced 10,000

It’s cheaper for us to have conservation programs rather than to go out and buy more energy or build new power plants.

— Neil Neroutsos Snohomish County PUD spokesman

streetlights mostly in north Snohomish County.

The price has dropped even further. The PUD expects to pay $130 a streetlight this year.

A traditional HPS — or high pressure sodium lights — is expected to last seven to 10 years. LED lights are expected to last 15 years, but they could last more than 20 years, Gregory said.

The PUD also uses 400-watt streetlights for state highways and on- and off-ramps. HPS lights usually last four years, Gregory said. But LEDs are expected to still last 15 years or longer.

The new lights will use a lot less electricity.

A typical 100-watt HPS light ends up using nearly 130 watts, but these LED lights use only 44 watts, or about a third of the electricity.

The real savings will be in the longevity of the streetlights and not having to replace streetlights frequently, Gregory said.

The PUD did some smaller pilot projects before launching the change, looking for comments from customers.

Gregory said the responses were positive.

The softer, whiter light can be seen on security cameras where people can see more distinguishing details with shots taken under LED lights.

These lights also are more focused, with less light spillover.

That’s proven popular in areas where people enjoy stargazing.

The LED lights contribute to the district’s conservation efforts.

Those efforts have saved the district about 11 megawatts in

energy savings or enough power to light up about 8,000 homes, said Neil Neroutsos, PUD spokesman.

“It’s cheaper for us to have conservation programs rather than to go out and buy more energy or build a new power plants,” Neroutsos said.

Take advantage of free online college business courses

By Pat Sisneros Special to The Herald

biz bits

id you know that you can take business, marketing, management and entrepreneurship courses from the top universities and professors from across the country and beyond for free?

Yes. FREE! Here’s how it works.

A recent innovation in delivering higher education is called MOOC, which stands for Massive Open Online Course.

MOCCs are free online courses covering a wide range of subjects available to anyone with a computer and Internet access.

If you haven’t explored the world of MOOC’s, you need to do so.

First, some basics about MOOCs. There are two major

players in the MOOC market — Coursera and EdX. Coursera is a for-profit company, while EdX is a non-profit organization.

Coursera was launched in 2012 by two Stanford University computer science professors in partnership with Princeton University, University of Michigan and University of Pennsylvania.

Today, the company has 117 partner schools and institutions, over 12 million users and offers 1,000 courses. Coursera lists 170 in the business and management area alone.

EdX was also started in 2012

by Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology. EdX has 60 partner institutions, 3 million users and 300 courses. They list 51 in the business and management area.

A MOOC class typically consists of video lectures from

Financial series Thrivent Financial invites the public to a free financial educational series, More Than Money Matters. The four-week series is designed to equip consumers with the tools and information to manage their money wisely. The first one is 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Wednesday and continues at the same time

the professor, reading material, problem sets, exams and discussion forums with other students in the class. It’s likely that there will be thousands of other students from around the world “attending” the same class.

Some of the courses are selfpaced. Others have specific start and end dates, typically ranging in length of between 4 and 12 weeks.

Both firms charge a fee ($50$100) if you want to receive an “official certificate” for completing the course. For most small business owners, this is an unnecessary expense.

Where should you start?

First, I would travel around Coursera’s and EdX’s websites (www.coursera.org and www. edx.org). Explore the different course offerings and schedules.

Look at what topics will be covered in the courses of interest to you. You’ll also increase your understanding of how the MOOC format works.

Here are some business courses that caught my eye: ■■Grow to Greatness — Smart Growth for Private Business Part I and II — University of Virginia ■■Entrepreneurship 101: Who is your customer? — MIT ■■Essentials of Entrepreneurship: Thinking: Action — University of California, Irvine ■■Successful Negotiation: Essential Strategies and Skills — University of Michigan ■■Introduction to Marketing — University of Pennsylvania ■■Social Entrepreneurship — Copenhagen Business School Next, I’d recommend taking a

instructor Andrea Cahan, engineering instructor Joseph Graber, nursing instructor Gail McLean, engineering instructor Matt Parsons and math instructor Michael Story. Each completed a three-year process that included significant observation, assessment and feedback.

Each instructor was highly recommended by their tenure committee.

self-paced course. It will allow you to see if you like the delivery format and structure. Then determine if, with your schedule, you can complete a course in a reasonable amount of time.

Don’t hesitate to take a foundation course in any business subject —you’ll gain new insights, even if you have previously taken many other marketing or management courses. Remember, you’re getting free access to class materials and information from some of the brightest business minds in the country.

IN OUR VIEW | Supply and demand

End the Big Corn subsidies It’s a belated wake-up call to our country’s highly subsidized and bloated Big Corn industry. It’s mind-boggling, but true: Despite the massive corn production in the U.S., we are now importing corn from other countries to meet the demand for organic produce, Bloomberg News reported last week.

The reason? About 90 percent of U.S. corn and soy is bioengineered, automatically making it ineligible for the organic label, Bloomberg reported.

It’s a very expensive: American farm subsidies cost taxpayers $20 billion a year, The Economist reported, with most of the money going to big, rich farmers producing staple commodities such as corn and soybeans in states such as Iowa.

It’s long been known that most of the corn grown in the U.S. isn’t consumed by humans. The majority of it becomes livestock feed, (despite the fact that cows can’t digest it); ethanol production comes in second, and production of starch, corn oil and corn sweeteners are not far behind.

Hence the demand for organic corn. Most of which is coming from Romania, while sales of soybeans from India are also booming, according to an analysis of U.S. trade data released by the Organic Trade Association and Penn State University, Bloomberg reported.

Romanian corn rose to $11.6 million in 2014 from $545,000 the year before. Soybean imports from India more than

doubled to $73.8 million. (China comes in second of organic soybeans exports to the U.S. after Romania. We get the rest of the organic corn from Turkey, the Netherlands and Canada.)

The idea of the U.S. importing corn is so crazy that even the federal government had to notice. So last week U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack said the government will boost support for production of organic crops and produce this year to meet growing consumer demand and boost rural incomes.

Better late than never; however, it will only make sense if subsidies are decreased or stopped for crops that have consumed the bulk of the annual $20 billion: Corn,

wheat, cotton, rice and soybeans. This would end the practice of giving ever more money to already rich farmers, who may or may not actually be growing anything, and might not even be alive.

Meanwhile, living, breathing organic farmers would get help to meet the demand for whatever crops they grow, including corn. The organic sector’s average annual growth of about 10 percent is triple that of overall food sales, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture. To actually meet demand, and take action toward a reasonable federal budget, it’s not enough to just help organic farmers. The billions and billions in subsidies to the big five crops must end.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■ CONGRESS

Food labeling bill needs approval The Washington congressional delegation should support Congressman Mike Pompeo’s Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act. The lack of federal action in past years has spurred states to create their own mandatory labeling standards. However, the federal government is the proper place for this regulation because consumers deserve to have accurate and reliable food labels in every state.

Finally there is a sensible solution in Congress that will apply to all the states and won’t harm Washington agriculture.

The Safe and Accurate Food Labeling Act is a voluntary system in which food producers can choose how to market their goods without increasing food prices.

A study last year by Cornell University found that a mandatory state-based approach could force families to pay up to $500 more per year for groceries.

Thousands of products labeled “USDA Certified Organic” and “Non-GMO Project” help consumers identify foods made without GMO ingredients and we should support that current method of identification. This system allows the consumer to decide if they wish to pay the higher costs associated with purchasing foods that do not contain GMO ingredients. Additionally, every major scientific body and regulatory agency in the world has reviewed the research about GMOs and declared they are safe.

By creating a national voluntary standard for labeling,

GUEST COMMENTARY | Infant Immunization Week

Vaccine best way to halt pertussis’ spread

By Dr. Gary Goldbaum

A

s you have likely seen in the news, we are seeing an explosion of whooping cough (pertussis) cases statewide. Here in Snohomish County, there have been 40 confirmed cases since January and most of those have happened in the last few weeks.

To put that into perspective, there were only 23 cases in 2014 and 57 cases in 2013.

Thankfully we are not at the epidemic levels last seen in 2012, and I am hopeful that by all of us doing our part we can spare Snohomish County from a repeat.

Whooping cough is a serious disease that affects the respiratory system and is spread by coughing and sneezing. Of the 40 cases in our county, nearly threequarters have been students

between the ages of 6 and 18.

This is not surprising given the close quarters students keep during the school day.

We must assume that everyone exposed — whether it’s other classmates, friends or family members — is potentially infected. This is why the Snohomish Health District works in close partnership with our schools and local health providers. In recent weeks, staff have sent letters to parents and caregivers at 12 schools across our county, as well as a handful of local community groups and youth activity clubs.

The single most effective way to prevent whooping cough is the pertussis vaccine. Our primary concern is protecting our most vulnerable — infants who cannot be immunized until six weeks old. For that reason, it is

absolutely critical that pregnant women receive the Tdap vaccine with every pregnancy.

This is a bit of a departure from recommendations during the 2012 epidemic, mainly because vaccine science continues to evolve. We now know that pregnancy changes the immune system in mothers, and waiting until delivery to administer the vaccine still puts the newborn at risk.

Receiving the vaccine during the third trimester, and ideally in conjunction with the 28-week glucose screening, provides maximum benefit to the mother and her baby.

It is also important that everyone coming into close contact with newborns is immunized. This includes siblings, grandparents, caregivers and other friends and family. I encourage you to talk with your health care provider

to see if your vaccinations are up to date. And thanks to the Affordable Care Act, and increased access at local pharmacies, getting immunized is easier than ever.

April 18-25 is National Infant Immunization Week.

Pertussis and many other diseases are entirely preventable thanks to advances in vaccines. Once newborns reach the six-week mark they need to begin the immunization series schedule for pertussis and other vaccine preventable diseases as recommended.

By working together, we can ensure a safer and healthier community. It is up to all of us to protect our children so that they can get the healthy starts they deserve.

Dr. Gary Goldbaum is the health officer and director for the Snohomish Health District.

Why we can’t reach a ‘sensible middle’

S

ome time ago, I heard a power company executive arguing that humans have played no role in global warming. Actually, he went further, “demonstrating” that global warming isn’t even happening. (This is often done by cherrypicking dates to start with an unusually warm year.)

He ended by spreading his arms and beseeching us in his commonsense voice, FROMA HARROP “Can’t we meet in the sensible middle?”

To which I thought, “If I say the moon is made of lunar rock and you say it is made of green cheese, is the ‘sensible middle’ that the moon is half lunar rock and half green cheese?”

That’s the problem with sensible middles. You can’t do the give-and-take without agreeing on facts. Nowadays, some of the thorniest problems get hung up on one side’s dismissal (or corruption) of accepted science. We can compromise over how far our society will go in confronting climate change, but we must first agree it exists.

Thus, when we ask questions like “Would Hillary Clinton be a centrist president?” what do we mean by that? We can be sure that if nominated, Clinton the candidate will try to seem centrist, as will her Republican foe. Americans like the sound of moderation.

Some debates can’t logically end in compromise. The right to abortion does not lend itself to concessions, making it a land mine for Republicans in a general election. Religious conservatives want abortion banned, but most Americans want it kept legal. So you have Republican candidates saying that they oppose abortion but would allow it in cases of rape and incest.

They may even paint others as extremist: “My opponent won’t even make an exception for rape or incest.”

In reality, the so-called extreme position is the only logical “pro-life” stance. If one holds that the organism formed at conception is a full human person, it is a full human being whether conceived through rape or through marital love. There is no biological difference.

I don’t agree that two cells fused at fertilization are a full human being. I respect the views of those who do, but not if they won’t accept the consequences of their position.

Another problem in reaching a sensible middle is finding the middle. Tax and spending policy is an area where compromise can be reached. But there’s no middle to work toward when one side portrays any tax increase as a deal killer.

In 2011, eight Republicans running for president were asked at a debate whether they’d accept a deal with Democrats giving them $10 in spending cuts for every $1 in tax increases. This would seem a conservative’s debt reduction dream, but not one of the eight would say yes to it.

The candidates were surely mindful of President George H.W. Bush’s electoral loss after breaking his pledge, “Read my lips: No new taxes.” The elder Bush happened to be doing the responsible thing, but his party’s right wing had moved fiscal management from the realm of political science to black-and-white religion.

Today this faction doesn’t want its leaders to be seen shaking hands with President Obama, much less compromising with him on matters of substance. The outcome is Republicans disinheriting their own ideas because Obama has adopted them. The great example was the Affordable Care Act, whose blueprint came out of the conservative Heritage Foundation.

Many Americans only pretend to seek a sensible middle by placing the middle in the middle of their stuck beliefs. No, it’s worse than that. Many are scuttling rational thought altogether, accepting or rejecting beliefs not on their merits but based on who is holding them. The end product is neither a middle nor sensible.

That’s the problem with sensible middles.

You can’t do the giveand-take without agreeing on facts.

Black cop’s firing forces small town to face race issues Eli Saslow The Washington Post

ORTING — They were so preoccupied with the volcano shadowing their town, with forecasts and evacuation drills, that few people here noticed the other disaster taking shape around them. Life for Orting’s 8,000 residents depended on predicting what would one day come roaring down the slopes of Mount Rainier, 30 miles away. They had sirens for lava, sensors for earthquakes and alarms for the volcanic mudflow that geologists believed would one day bury the town.

So at first nobody paid much attention in the fall of 2013 when what came winding around the mountain and into the valley was another U-Haul carrying a new family into town. In the driver’s seat, came Orting’s newest employee, a police officer in a place where crime had begun to rise. Gerry Pickens stopped downtown to pick up his badge, and only then did it become obvious in Orting that this hire was unlike any the town had made before.

The place once known as “The White City,” in part for its lack of diversity, had hired a black police officer, its first since the town’s founding in 1889.

“Congratulations! Welcome to our team,” read a letter that Pickens received with his badge.

Eighteen months later, if Orting can still agree on anything about Pickens’s arrival, it is that his first day was also his best day — the one when questions of race and policing still felt like problems for bigger towns. Pickens, 28, had not yet been suspended for an allegation of stealing that was never substantiated. He had not yet been terminated shortly before the end of his standard probationary period. His car had not yet been spray-painted with a racial epithet and a threat. The NAACP hadn’t yet arrived for a news conference. Residents had not yet fractured into hostile groups, erupting onto hateful Internet message boards, and Pickens had not yet made plans to file a lawsuit unless the town paid him $5 million in damages.

Pickens had spent three years policing in Atlanta, where he had responded to hundreds of the drug crimes, break-ins and violent robberies that were only beginning to encroach on Orting as development spread south from Seattle into the valley.

“So happy to be home,” Pickens wrote to a friend that day. He had gone to high school a few miles outside town, and he had taken a pay cut to bring his wife and daughter back to the Pacific Northwest.

Just smile He was already aware of the town’s reputation and had heard rumors in high school of police officers intimidating black drivers and of white supremacists meeting in the woods. But during his teenage years, Pickens had never felt discriminated against or even disliked.

His parents had taught him some guidelines for living in a place that was almost entirely white: Don’t talk about being black. Act grateful. Always smile.

It surprised him when he heard a resident had seen Pickens on patrol and called 911. “There’s a police car being driven by a black juvenile,” the resident had reported, and for the next several weeks some of Pickens’s coworkers had referred to him as the “black juvenile. He decided to laugh.

Maybe the police chief was only trying to be thoughtful when he mentioned that Pickens should be vigilant about his self defense because Orting was an old-fashioned place that believed in the Second Amendment, where white supremacist groups remained active and well armed. He began obsessing about those groups between 2 and 6 a.m., when he was the only officer on duty. He sometimes wondered: If one of those groups ambushed him, would anyone provide backup?

Only when the police chief suspended Pickens for a week in April 2014 did he become convinced that racism was the cause, and that it was no longer enough to act grateful and smile back.

Another Orting officer had been able to stay at work while being investigated for using excessive force on a teenager; Pickens was sent home based on an accusation of lifting weights at a local gym without paying for the visit.

Gerry Pickens feeds the fish with his daughter, Jazmin, 2, at their home in Puyallup. He’s looking for new job in law enforcement and his firing has divided Orting, the small Washington town that hired and later fired him.

The Orting Way The town of Orting had been built on a base of volcanic material 15 feet deep, evidence of the several dozen times Mount Rainier had erupted. An explosion came every few hundred years and would one day come again: heat and gas upsetting the volcano’s fragile balance, melting Rainier’s 25 glaciers, uprooting trees, unhinging boulders and hillsides, all of it collapsing down the mountain at 50 miles an hour in an avalanche of earth known as a lahar. In a worst-case scenario, geologists predicted Orting would have as little as 42 minutes to evacuate. Then the town would be flooded with 20 feet of mud.

For decades, Orting adhered to the tenets of stability and consistency: population always about 2,000; demographics steady at 95 percent white; membership consistent at the Lions Club, the Masons and the Kiwanis. They practiced evacuations twice each year, filing students out of schools in orderly lines. The same police chief remained in charge for 30 years, parking his car on the main road into town not because he wanted to write tickets but because he liked to honk his horn and wave at every resident who drove past. “The Orting Way,” people called it.

But then the Fords sold their family dairy farm, and the Williamses offered up 100 acres of white-and-yellow daffodil fields to developers in the 1990s. Soon signs on the main road into town announced cheap houses, and buyers arrived each weekend from Seattle. Look at all that empty space! And look at that mountain! Orting’s population doubled, then tripled, then quadrupled.

“A thriving bedroom community,” advertised one marketing campaign, but longtime residents had another name for it: a town of strangers. The Kiwanis died out. The Chamber of Commerce faltered. The Masons moved from town.

What arrived in their place were mostly young families — a touch more liberal, a few more Hispanics, Samoans, Filipinos and African-Americans. The white population dropped from 95 percent to 88 percent. The two-lane road became gridlocked with commuters, and traffic studies revealed an even bigger problem: The town was growing too big to evacuate. Nobody would be getting out in 42 minutes, not with congestion like this.

Politicians created a plan to build a “Bridge for Kids,” an architectural marvel that would connect the schools to a safety zone in the hills above town. The proposed bridge, more than a mile long, would evacuate all 2,500 students in less than 40 minutes — if only a town with a $3 million budget could somehow raise the $50 million to build it.

Crisis in Orting Suddenly meth was being produced inside one of the abandoned farms and heroin was coming down from Seattle. Car thefts increased. Home invasions doubled. Then, early last year, a lifetime Orting resident awoke in the middle of the night to a noise in his house, yet another robbery, and when he went downstairs to investigate, he was killed with his own gun — just the second homicide in 50 years,

unemployment insurance and stayed home with his 2-yearold daughter, taking her to the playground in downtown Orting where he could watch the police cars cruise by as the pressure built in his chest.

“They took my manhood, my income, my security,” he said.

“They thought I was just some dumb black guy who would take unemployment and kick rocks.”

He began writing down all the ways he thought he’d been discriminated against: co-workers who called him a “token black guy,” discrepancies in his vacation time and racial epithets shouted at him by a resident when he responded to a disorderly conduct complaint. One morning a neighbor came banging on his door.

She screamed something about his truck, and he followed her outside. His daughter saw it first.

She said somebody had drawn on it with a crayon, but she was too young to read the words. “Nigger,” it read on one side. And then, on the other: “Sue cheif and pay.”

Pickens called the county police and then a lawyer. The lawyer called the Tacoma chapter of the NAACP, and together they scheduled a news conference. “Racism is still alive,” Pickens said, and then he announced that he would file suit for wrongful termination unless the city paid him $5 million in damages.

“An absurd number,” the mayor said.

“If this gains momentum, it could crack this town in two,” said one councilwoman, and already that was happening online, hate and bias spilling onto Facebook, where the community forums often revolved around Pickens’s case.

“It isn’t about race but is more about ability,” one person wrote.

“Whoever spray-painted his SUV felt it was about race,” wrote another.

“BIG surprise! Another black guy filing a lawsuit.”

“Orting is a backwater, racist town.”

“Maybe they should hire Pickens in Ferguson.”

On some days, it seemed all of Orting was arguing about race, and that was when the sirens went off.

Keep moving

Gerry Pickens was Orting’s first black policeman, but he wasn’t on the force long. He says he was set up to fail.

and this one still unsolved.

“Crisis in Orting!” declared the banner of one newsletter after the killing, and on Internet message boards residents began casting blame for the disorder they believed had overtaken their town. It was the teenagers, some wrote. The commuters. The minorities. The gangs. Ten days after the shooting, the city council held a meeting in the school gymnasium. Hundreds attended.

Bill Drake, the new police chief, stepped to the microphone and warned that he was “coming for” whoever committed the killing.

Seeking diversity Each week at the all-staff meeting, Drake delivered his orders to 11 white men, even as the city diversified. “This is a problem,” he remembered telling the city administrator, and together they advertised Orting’s police openings at job fairs in Tacoma and Seattle, hoping to attract minorities and women.

It seemed to him like remarkable luck when the city received an application from Pickens, an experienced minority officer who had applied specifically to Orting because he wanted to move home. Pickens nailed the interview. He scored well on the written exam. He passed the polygraph, the agility test and the psych evaluation.The city made its offer. Pickens accepted the same day.

“A crowning achievement for us,” the mayor said.

Then Pickens started — and so, in Drake’s accounting, did a succession of problems. According to a document Drake later provided to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Pickens disappeared from radio contact during his shift, approached a high-risk traffic stop with his hands in his pockets, ignored advice from his training officer and submitted sloppy accident

reports that were left two-thirds empty. Maybe he really was establishing trust with teenagers when he played basketball in his uniform, but in the monthly statistics, that added up to a lot of loafing around.

He counseled Pickens about his performance in March, wrote him a letter in April and spoke to him again in August. The two men never discussed race. Pickens never said what it was like to be the first black officer in Orting.

Drake never asked.

“Orting is a small town, and nothing goes unnoticed here,” was as far as Drake would go.

“Obviously, my situation is a little unique,” was all Pickens would say.

About a week before Pickens’s one-year probationary period ended, Drake met with the city administrator and the mayor to discuss their options. Firing Pickens would cost the city about $50,000, because it would need to hire and train his replacement.

The mayor cautioned that firing Pickens might not look good.

“I regret to inform you,” the chief wrote Pickens on Sept. 9.

Later, in a response to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, he elaborated on his thinking. He stated that Pickens had been given “every opportunity” before being dismissed for “unsatisfactory performance.”

Then Drake went on to list his reasons.

“Failed to understand,” he wrote.

“Failed to handle . . .”

“Failed to comprehend . . .”

“Failed to meet . . .”

“Failed to complete . . .”

Racism still alive Pickens’s wife said he should file a lawsuit, but instead he began applying for other jobs.

Pickens expanded his search and applied for police jobs in Oregon and California. He signed up for

The town tested its lahar alarms several times each year, but no matter how well the drills were publicized, the first blaring notes always came as a surprise. Dogs howled. Horses bucked against their stables. The entire valley was consumed by noise, and for two minutes the only choice was to listen.

The mayor sat in his office at city hall as the siren began and thought about his budget for emergencies. “We’re stretched to the bone right now just on basic costs,” he said, and for a town located in the path of disaster, basics never seemed like enough.

He wanted to buy emergency radios and survival kits for every citizen, and to raise $50 million to build the evacuation bridge in time for a lahar that could come any day.

“We don’t have $5 million to spare,” the mayor said, thinking about Pickens and his demand.

Drake had spent dozens of hours preparing to win if a lahar arrived on his watch, and no matter the scenario, the basic facts of his task were always the same: Eight thousand people to evacuate. Forty-two minutes to remove them. “Keep moving. Don’t stop. Keep moving,” the town’s emergency guide read. Residents would have to grab their readymade survival kits. They would need to move by foot and not by car. They had to follow the blue signs down Calistoga Street to the rock quarry until they had made it at least 80 feet above the valley floor. No rescuers would be coming until the lahar ended. Orting would determine its own fate.

“The human instinct is to panic,” Drake said. “We are not by nature always calm, rational people. That’s what we’re up against.”

Everything he knew about evacuations suggested that there was one way to minimize the damage: When the alarm sounded for something other than a drill, an entire community had to move past denial and beyond fear. Old Orting and new Orting, police officers and citizens, minorities and whites — their reality was all the same. They needed to start moving in the same direction, up the hill, and fast.

Meadowdale High School unveiled a mural by artist Andrew Morrison on March 31 in honor of Cesar Chavez Day and a state bill that would formally recognize the day, thanks to a Meadowdale student.

House Bill 1560 was approved 68-30 in the House on March 6 and was still under consideration in the Senate last week. The bill would recognize Cesar Chavez Day while not making it a legal holiday, akin to other recognized days, such as Mother Joseph Day (April 16) and Marcus Whitman Day (Sept. 4).

The bill is sponsored by Rep. Zach Hudgins, who drafted it after being asked by Meadowdale student Jon Cruz Martinez last year why the state does not recognize the day named for the late farmworker activist. Martinez’s native Spanish speaking class had just finished a unit on Chavez.

Present at the mural unveiling were Martinez and his classmates, Morrison, Hudgins, and members of Colores Unidos, Meadowdale’s Latino student union.

Jack Kidd, a fifth-grader at Woodside Elementary School, placed seventh at the Washington state National Geographic Geo Bee. Over 5,000 students competed in schools across the state, advancing to regional and state bees.

“The best thing, as a teacher, that I could hear was at the very end Jack said, ‘I had SO much FUN!’ There’s nothing better than that, because Jack was doing what he loved,” said his teacher Deborah Wrobel.

Graham Everhart, a seventh-grader from Brier Terrace Middle School, also competed at the State Geo Bee. Test your geography know-how: 1. There’s a forest of crooked trees in Poland. These oddly shaped pine trees are located near the Baltic Sea on which continent?

2. Khone (cone) Falls, a cataract on the Mekong River, has acted as a barrier preventing an upstream country from using the river as a major trade route. Khone Falls is located in which landlocked country?

Obedience: Attitude of authority needed

DAILY CROSSWORD

Q: Why is it that no consequence seems to work for long, if at all, with my very strong-willed 7-year-old daughter? I have tried everything I’ve ever heard or read about to deal with her constant disobedience and disrespect.

Some things, like taking away her computer privileges for a day or so, have worked for maybe a week at most, then stop working. It’s like she doesn’t really care if I punish her. Nothing fazes her. Help!

A: Consequences only work when the child in question regards the parent as an authority figure.

Your daughter’s disrespect is clear indication that she does not see you in that light. You are obviously frustrated with her, which undermines her respect for you.

Obedience and respect are not obtained by using proper consequences. They are obtained by projecting a proper attitude. The attitude in question is calm, selfpossessed, straightforward and matter-of-fact. The parent is cool, calm, and collected — unflappable. A child’s natural response to an adult who projects those qualities — which I call Plan A — is obedience. That adult will only need to fall back on consequences — Plan B — occasionally, as a reminder.

CLASSIC PEANUTS

JOHN ROSEMOND LIVING WITH CHILDREN Without the proper parental attitude no consequence will work for more than a few hours to a few days. With the proper attitude consequences are rarely needed. As living proof, parents who have well-behaved, wellmannered children are models of the attitude in question. Other parents sometimes make the mistake of thinking these parents are “lucky.” Not so. They are not relaxed because they were blessed with “easy” children.

Their kids are easy because they are relaxed.

Their kids also know they mean business. When it comes to consequences, these parents don’t fool around. They use huge consequences in response to small misbehaviors. Taking away computer privileges for a day or two when a child disobeys is an

example of fooling around. Taking away every single privilege the child enjoys for two or three weeks during which time the child goes to bed at least one hour early every night is not fooling around.

“For one misbehavior?” someone asks incredulously.

Yes, for one misbehavior.

The purpose of a consequence is to significantly reduce, even eliminate, the likelihood that the misbehavior will recur. To accomplish that, the consequence has to instill a permanent memory, one that lights up like the Fourth of July if the child is ever again so inclined.

That approach to the use of consequences, coupled with the attitude described above, minimizes their need and leads eventually to a very relaxed, easygoing parent-child relationship.

Face it, the need to discipline constantly as you describe yourself doing, creates tension in the parent-child relationship. That tension interferes with the free flow of affection.

In short, the key to having a wonderful relationship with your kids is to embrace your natural authority and stop worrying about whether punishments “fit” crimes.

Explosive boyfriend needs to cool down Dear Abby: I have known “Dean” for 10 years. We have been living together for two. Since the beginning, he has struggled with depression, anxiety and anger issues.

Occasionally he has explosive episodes where he’ll throw things and punch or kick inanimate objects.

Recently things escalated. He was angry with himself after getting angry with me for disturbing his “process” while making dinner, and he threw a potted plant across the room.

I know these are serious issues. Every friend or family member of mine who knows him believes he’s a good guy deep down. But they all tell me to leave him.

I talked with him after the incident. He called a therapist, set up an appointment and has promised he won’t drink anymore.

I’m struggling with the judgment I’m feeling from my friends and family.

Dean is a man I see a future with, and I don’t want to give him up when he’s finally seeking treatment.

My friends are concerned about me getting hurt, either in the crossfire or when I try to stop him from hurting himself. — Not Ready To Walk Dear Not Ready: If all your family and friends are worried about your physical safety, for your own sake, you may have to stop trying to save Dean and concentrate on yourself for a while.

He may have many fine qualities, and the fact that he is willing to seek help for his explosive temper says a lot for him. That’s why I’m suggesting you and Dean pay a visit to his therapist together and ask whether it would be better if you live apart until he learns to recognize and manage his “triggers.” It may give him RIP HAYWIRE

Dear Abby: Recently my 11-year-old son, “Jackson,” was at a neighbor’s house playing with another boy a few years younger. The boy told my son he plays with him only because his parents make him, and he said he isn’t Jackson’s friend and never wanted to be.

Jackson came home upset, and I was heartbroken for him. I comforted him and told him at least the boy was honest. I advised Jackson to find another friend to play with.

I’m at a loss on what to do next, if anything. Do I talk to the parents? Or just let it go? — Mama Bear In Illinois Dear Mama Bear: Tell the parents what happened if they ask again for Jackson to come over. While children say all kinds of things in the heat of the moment, it would be better for your son if you found some other activities for him — group activities involving sports or science or the arts — for at least a while.

While it’s understandable your neighbor’s son may resent being forced to play with Jackson, it is equally understandable that Jackson might be reluctant at this point to have anything more to do with him. Don’t push it.

Science talk show debuts tonight

By Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

With weekly talk shows devoted to other TV shows becoming a cottage industry (see: “Talking Dead” on AMC, “Beyond A.D.” on NBC.com), a sciencethemed talk show does not seem so far-fetched.

Monday at 11 p.m., National Geographic Channel debuts “StarTalk” hosted by Neil deGrasse Tyson (“Cosmos”). It’s based on Tyson’s existing podcast series of the same name.

In Monday’s premiere, Tyson, who has a doctorate in astrophysics, is joined by a co-host-of-the-week, comedian Leighann Lord, and astronomy/physics professor Charles Liu to discuss the role of “Star Trek” in culture, technology and science. Their segments chatting about the 1960s-born phenomenon are interspersed with an interview Tyson conducted earlier with “Star Trek” actor George Takei. Although Takei has become a ubiquitous presence in pop culture in recent years thanks to his popular social media feeds, Tyson’s interview managed to bring out both stories I’ve heard Takei tell before and some new material.

“The Kardashians have been going longer than the original ‘Star Trek,’” Tyson notes.

Monday’s highlights on TV include: “Time Traveling with Brian Unger” is a new series that has its witty host exploring tales of yesteryear with the aid of CGI graphics. Among the first stops: San Francisco in the early 1900s, when the Golden Gate Bridge was still but a dream. 10 p.m., Travel Channel

“StarTalk” is a different kind of talk show.

Famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson hosts an hour that fuses science with pop culture. His first guest: actor George Takei, aka Sulu from “Star Trek.”

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Neil deGrasse Tyson’s new science-focused talk show, “StarTalk,” debuts tonight on the National Geographic channel.

“Yes, but on ‘Star Trek’ we have the Cardassians,” Takei replies good-naturedly.

A commentary at the end by “Bill Nye The Science Guy” doesn’t add much, but the show’s second episode, featuring Tyson’s interview with “Interstellar” director Christopher Nolan, promises the hope of something fresher with a pop culture figure who’s less overexposed than Takei. (Future guests will include sex columnist Dan Savage, ethologist Richard Dawkins, Twitter co-founder Biz Stone, “All in the Family” creator

Norman Lear and former President Jimmy Carter.)

At a January Nat Geo press conference, Tyson said his goal with the TV show is the same as with his podcast.

“It’s a mixture of comedy, science, and pop culture fully blended, every single episode,” he said.

“I’m the host, yet I’m the scientist, and my guests are hardly ever scientists.

“Our goal is to hew them from pop culture. It could be entertainment. It could be sports. We’ve even interviewed journalists ... and then we orchestrate a conversation around them that constantly detours into

science and all the ways (it) has influenced that person’s livelihood. And in this way, we bring science to people who didn’t know they liked science, or maybe thought that they didn’t like science.”

Tyson said his inspiration for the podcast that led to the TV show was public radio’s “Car Talk,” which managed to be entertaining even to noncar aficionados. Similarly, his hope for “StarTalk” is that it can have an appeal beyond science geeks.

And he’s not particularly interested in using the series to take on scientific misconceptions.

Who would Shelton want in his ‘Voice’ seat?

Musical chairs is a common game on “The Voice.”

Pharrell is sitting in a seat originally owned by CeeLo Green and once occupied

by Usher, while Shakira and Gwen Stefani have filled in when Christina Aguilera took a hiatus from the show.

Blake Shelton said he has an idea who he would like to fill in his seat — if he ever took a break from the show, currently in its eighth season.

“I think Luke (Bryan) would be good — I do,” Shelton said of his fellow

country music star in an interview Friday. “He’d be a good person in that chair.”

Shelton Blake has been Shelton the winning coach on the series for four of the seven seasons. Adam Levine, who has won twice, has also stayed on the NBC competition show since it began in 2011.

Shelton said he’s not sure if other artists would sacrifice their careers like

he has for “The Voice.”

“There also has to be an element of actually being willing to just give up, pretty much, your career to do it, your touring career,” he said. “I’m just lazy enough. I may be the only one that was willing to do that.”

“After 15 years of touring all the time, I was ready to sit in one spot for months at a time,” he added. “I know Luke loves to tour and he’s having fun with it.”

“The Voice” has helped Shelton — who was already a top country star — reach

audiences outside of the country world. He said he takes the mentorship on the show seriously — and he still connects with the artists he’s worked with after the show ends.

The Swon Brothers, the country duo that Shelton mentored on “The Voice,” is nominated for vocal duo of the year at Sunday’s Academy of Country Music Awards.

“A lot of these people become like family to me,” he said. “We’re in the trenches together.”

Happy Birthday: Your hard work will pay off this year, but you will also be tempted by people, products, services and luxury items that can counter your attempt to get ahead financially. Set a strict budget this year and don’t let anyone talk you into indulgence of any kind. Your numbers are 2, 7, 12, 20, 24, 33, 48.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take advantage of a chance to make a professional move. Negotiate shrewdly and get whatever you want in writing, and you will come out on top. Bold action will bring interesting results that will inspire you to excel. ��� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Practice moderation when it comes to how much you take on and spend. A cautious but progressive move will help you convince others that you are on the right track. ��� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Dealing with officials, banks, hospitals or government agencies should be handled quickly and with diplomacy. Get all your papers in order to avoid delays. ��� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Make a point to stand out. Your involvement in groups will put you in a position to make a difference. Share your thoughts, appeal to the sympathy of others and let nature take its course. ���� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Take a back seat and be an observer. You will avoid interference and get a much better view of the situation you face as it unfolds. Keep in mind that going with the flow will end up giving you greater freedom. ��

Cruz delivers, Mariners walk off with win over Texas M’s right fielder hits two home runs, drives in game-winning run with two out in bottom of the 9th in 11-10 win over Rangers

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — As the Texas Rangers pieced together their seven-run third inning against Seattle Mariners starter James Paxton, it was difficult to imagine that Sunday’s game at Safeco Field might end with Nelson Cruz taking an involuntary bath in orange Gatorade after a gamewinning hit in the bottom of the ninth.

But Cruz’s presence in the lineup is evidence enough that this could be a different kind of season for the Mariners — one in which early, frustrating deficits are not certain to preclude victory.

In other words, these guys can hit. And they did on Sunday afternoon, repeatedly, until the Rangers’ five-run lead was erased and the Mariners were dancing around Cruz near first base after his two-out, RBI single lifted

them to a wild, 11-10 victory over the Rangers before an approving crowd of 31,601.

“They’re built for this. They’re tough,” Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. “Character wise, they’re tough. We have a nice mix of veterans and young players. This team is built for greatness. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but I like where we are.”

The final blow, a sharp single to left field off Texas closer Neftali Feliz, was not Cruz’s first. He augmented his heroics with a pair of home runs — a solo blast over the left-field fence with two outs

in the first inning, and a towering, three-run homer to left field in the third after Texas had taken a 7-2 lead.

He struck out three times in between his second homer and his game-winning single, but the Mariners will gladly accept those whiffs in exchange for the five RBI — and the eight home runs Cruz has smacked in Seattle’s last eight games.

Seattle’s 3-4-5 hitters — Robinson Cano, Cruz and Kyle Seager — combined for nine hits (three apiece), two walks, four runs and nine RBI. “It was nice. It was a great win,” Cruz said. “We needed this one, you know? We showed a lot of heart.”

After taking a 2-0 lead in the first inning — Austin Jackson led off with a homer — the Mariners, and Paxton, ran into major trouble in the third.

The Celtics’ Isaiah Thomas (4) loses the ball after he is fouled by the Cavaliers’ LeBron James (23) in Sunday’s playoff game. Cleveland beat Boston 113-100.

‘Big 3’ lead Cavs Irving, James, Love set the tone in win over Celtics

By Tom Withers Associated Press

CLEVELAND — More than hour after his first playoff game with LeBron James and Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving made a statement more profound than anything he did on the floor.

“We,” Irving said, “are the Big 3. We have really great players on this team, but we set the tone.”

Tone set.

Irving scored 30 points in his playoff debut, James added 20 in his first postseason game with Cleveland in five years and Love shook off a slow start to record a double-double, leading the Cavaliers to a 113-100 victory in Game 1 over the Boston Celtics on Sunday.

Irving made five 3-pointers and Love, another postseason rookie, added 19 points — 13 in the second half — and 12 rebounds James was proud of how his teammates handled their first

Associated Press MONACO — Even when Novak Djokovic doesn’t play very well, he manages to win titles.

Despite hitting 38 unforced errors in a back-and forth match, the top-ranked Serb won the first big clay-court tournament of the season with a 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 win over Tomas Berdych in the final of the Monte Carlo Masters.

It was Djokovic’s second triumph in three years in the principality, where he lives with his wife and child, and his 11th straight win in a final.

“In the end, I’m sitting here with this trophy that is very special to me, of course,” the Australian Open champion said.

“This is what matters. Sometimes winning ugly is necessary.

It’s been a remarkable start of the season for me.”

Djokovic, who has lost only two matches in 2015, became the first player in tennis history to win the first three Masters tournament of the year after completing the Indian Wells-Miami sweep this spring.

“The fact that now I won three Masters in a row, that nobody ever has done that ... that has given me, even this week, more motivation,” he said.

With his 23rd Masters title, Djokovic extended his winning streak to 17 matches, including a straight-set win over clay specialist Rafael Nadal in the semifinals on Saturday.

Djokovic’s next big goal is to win the French Open, the only major tournament missing from his collection.

The Cavs built a 20-point lead in the third quarter, let the Celtics get as close as six and then finished the quarter with a 9-0 run — capped a 3-pointer

by James Jones — to take a 15-point lead into the fourth.

Boston climbed within 10 in the final 12 minutes, but Love made a crucial 3-pointer with 3:32 left to slow Boston.

In the days leading up to the opener, James said he was confident Irving and Love would be ready for the playoffs, but added “you never know,” perhaps the superstar’s way of motivating his teammates.

Irving and Love looked like playoff veterans as Cleveland’s “Big 3” combined for 69 points.

Irving said four days of preparation helped the Cavs get ready, and while he and Love didn’t say they were nervous, they both seemed relieved to have the opener behind them.

“I’m just glad I got Game 1 out of the way,” Irving said.

venture onto the playoff stage.

“They were phenomenal,” he said. “Those two guys, they succeeded for the first time being in the postseason.”

It was Cleveland’s first home playoff game since May 11, 2010, when the Celtics won Game 5 and James left the floor to some boos from Cavaliers fans. He departed for Miami two months later, but he’s home now, all is forgiven and Cleveland is aiming to end a championship drought dating to 1964.

Isaiah Thomas, who played at the University of Washington, scored 22 points to lead the seventh-seeded Celtics. They will try to even the best-of-7 series in Game 2 on Tuesday night.

“We’re still confident,” Thomas said. “Guys are ready for Game 2, knowing that good or bad you’ve got to have a short memory. There are possibly seven games in this series and it could go either way.”

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Reserve Beno Udrih scored 20 points and the Memphis Grizzlies never trailed in routing the Portland Trail Blazers 100-86 on Sunday night in Game 1 of the Western Conference firstround series.

Zach Randolph had 16 points and 11 rebounds, and Marc Gasol added 15 points and 11 rebounds. Mike Conley finished with 16 points and didn’t play the fourth quarter. Jeff Green had 11.

LaMarcus Aldridge led Portland with 32 points while taking more shots than anyone had ever taken against Memphis in the postseason, going 13 of 34. Damian Lillard added 14

points, shooting 5 of 21 overall and 0 of 6 beyond the arc.

Nicolas Batum had 15 points.

The Trail Blazers have lost five straight overall.

The Grizzlies swept Portland during the regular season and have won 10 of the last 11, including the first playoff game between the teams.

Game 2 is Wednesday night in Memphis.

Hawks 99, Nets 92 ATLANTA — Kyle Korver scored 21 points, including five 3-pointers, and the top-seeded Atlanta Hawks held off the Brooklyn Nets in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference playoff series.

The Hawks led nearly the entire game and pushed the margin as high as 16 points, but the Nets kept coming back. Finally, Jeff Teague

dropped in a floater coming off the left wing, giving Atlanta a 95-89 lead. Joe Johnson missed a 3-pointer from the corner for Brooklyn, and Teague made a pair of free throws with just under a minute remaining to essentially seal it.

Game 2 is Wednesday night in Atlanta.

Clippers 107, Spurs 92 LOS ANGELES — Chris Paul scored 32 points, Blake Griffin added 26 points and 12 rebounds, and the Los Angeles Clippers surged in the second half for a 1 victory over the San Antonio Spurs in their firstround playoff series opener.

Jamal Crawford added 17 points for the Clippers, who met the defending NBA champions’ challenge in a difficult postseason-opening matchup for two powers. Griffin threw down his usual array of roofraising dunks, while Paul quarterbacked Los Angeles to an 18-point lead in the third quarter.

Hamilton wins Bahrain Grand Prix Associated Press SAKHIR, Bahrain — Lewis Hamilton’s bid for a third Formula One title is gathering momentum after another convincing win in Sunday’s Bahrain Grand Prix, while his Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg’s status as his main challenger is under threat from a resurgent Ferrari team.

Hamilton won the race from pole position to strengthen his overall lead in the standings with his third win in four races, and 36th of his career.

He is already 27 points ahead of Rosberg and 28 clear of Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel — the only driver to beat Hamilton so far.

“It doesn’t matter who it’s against, you try and beat everybody out there,” Hamilton said, underlining how the F1 title

race looks far from being the two-horse contest between Mercedes teammates it was last season. “It’s great to be having a fight with the Ferraris.”

The British driver started from the pole for the first time in the desert race under floodlights and was largely untroubled, finishing ahead of Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen and Rosberg, whose braking problem with two laps remaining let in Raikkonen for his first podium in two years.

“Ferrari gave us a really good run for our money and we will need to keep pushing as a team,” Hamilton said. “We’re trying to win both championships. So we won’t be 100 percent happy because we wanted to finish 1-2.”

Vettel looked set for a podium position until a late front wing

change ended the four-time F1 champion’s chances and he placed fifth behind Valtteri Bottas.

Dixon win IndyCar race LONG BEACH, Calif. — Scott Dixon passed Helio Castroneves during a mid-race pit stop and dominated the rest of the way to win the Grand Prix of Long Beach.

The New Zealander started Sunday’s race third, quickly passed series leader Juan Pablo Montoya and took the lead after Castroneves nearly collided with another car in the pits on lap 33.

Dixon turned back one challenge from Castroneves during the remainder of the 80-lap race and passed Bobby Unser for fifth place on the career victory list with 36. It also was Chip Ganassi Racing’s first victory this season.

Castroneves finished second, Montoya third and Simon Pagenaud fourth to give Team Penske another strong finish.

BRISTOL, Tenn. — After four rain delays and 11 extra laps, Matt Kenseth finally drove to victory lane.

It took him nine hours to get there Sunday at a water-logged Bristol Motor Speedway.

Kenseth snapped a 51-race losing streak by holding off Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson on one final restart in NASCAR’s determined effort to stage a complete race.

Kenseth, a seven-race winner in his 2013 debut season with Joe Gibbs Racing, was winless all last year.

“It feels good to be back here.

Not winning for as long as we did ... it wears on you a little bit,” Kenseth said. “We had such a good 2013, and last year there were some races we had some chances to win and just things wouldn’t line up for us.

“We just couldn’t get it to happen. (Bristol) was kind of the opposite. Everything worked out.”

The start was delayed nearly 90 minutes because of rain and the race was stopped three more times, including one delay that lasted almost four hours.

The final stoppage came when the race had already surpassed the scheduled 500 laps, but a quick rain shower had stalled NASCAR’s attempt to race to the checkered flag following an accident with eight laps remaining.

So, NASCAR parked the cars on pit road and sent out its dryers to quickly try to give it one more shot.

Kenseth, the leader, was fine with NASCAR’s decision because he was so confident in his Toyota.

“I’ve got to be honest with you, at least 90 percent of the time or more, I’d be all about, ‘Man, call that thing,’ because anything can go wrong,” he said. “I felt pretty good about where we were. I felt like unless I really, really messed it up, I was going to be clear getting into (Turn) 1. I felt like our car was good enough to hold on for two laps.”

He did have a two-lap overtime sprint to the finish and Kenseth, the pole-sitter, got a terrific jump on the restart. He wasn’t challenged in part because Gordon had a poor restart.

Johnson slid past Gordon to take second place, and Gordon finished third.

The race had a series of hiccups unrelated to the rain stoppages: Austin Dillon ran out of gas while running third because of the lengthy final caution, Denny Hamlin didn’t get back in his car after the first rain break because of a kink in his neck, and the two Team Penske drivers wrecked each other just 20 laps after the start.

Carl Edwards and Kurt Busch were in contention until they wrecked following a restart eight laps from the scheduled finish, and Busch put together his strong run with an interim crew chief because Tony Gibson couldn’t leave his motorhome due to pain from a kidney stone.

Kyle Larson, while leading, had a miscue with a pair of cars a lap down and the chaos it created sent Landon Cassill hard into the wall.

Hamlin, meanwhile, said he felt something strain in his neck 12 laps into the race. The race was stopped for rain on Lap 22, and Hamlin went to his motorhome to see if he could get his neck to feel better. Instead, it stiffened and he was hardly able to turn his head when NASCAR summoned drivers back to their cars.

“I can’t move my head or neck like I need to, and I’m not doing this team any justice if I go out there like this,” Hamlin told The Associated Press from the garage.

“I have no idea what happened.

I think it’s just a pull, something where you jerk your head around and you feel a pain. Almost like you slept on it wrong.”

Because Hamlin won last month at Martinsville, he’s already earned a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship and didn’t see the point in getting back into his No. 11 if he wasn’t going to be competitive.

Joe Gibbs Racing turned to 18-year-old Erik Jones, one of its development drivers, to replace Hamlin. He had to fly in from North Carolina and made it to the track just five minutes before the race resumed following the first red-flag.

Jackson making strides

Nelson Cruz wasn’t the only Mariner who homered on Sunday.

Austin Jackson, acquired at last season’s trade deadline and plugged in as the team’s starting center fielder, hit his first home run as a Mariner to lead off the first inning.

It was Jackson’s 11th career leadoff homer, and was the catalyst for a 3-for-5 day at the plate that also included a game-tying, RBI single in the ninth after an impressive, eight-pitch at-bat. He reached base four times (including a walk) after going 2-for-3 with a walk on Saturday.

McClendon would like to see his leadoff hitter, who batted .200 through his first nine games, to do that more often.

“That’s the last part of his game that has not come for him,” McClendon said prior to Sunday’s game, referring to his desire for Jackson to draw more walks. “... When he does that, he’s going to be a real good leadoff hitter for us. I see it coming. He’s getting better.”

And after his Sunday performance?

“He’s getting back to the player he once was,” McClendon said.

“Keep grinding, keep listening, keep working. He’s done it in the past, so it’s in there. It’s just the ability to make the adjustments that he needs to make, and the willingness to do it.”

Short hops Cruz’s eight home runs are the most hit by a major league player through the first 12 games of a season since Alex Rodriguez hit eight home runs in the New York Yankees’ first 12 games of 2007.

And Cruz’s game-winning single on Sunday was his seventh career walk-off RBI. ... The last time the Mariners overcame a five-run deficit to win was April 27 of last season, also against Texas. They were down 5-0 and won the game 6-5.

On tap The Mariners begin a three-game series against the Houston Astros with a 7:10 p.m. game Monday at Safeco Field. Right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma (0-1, 6.55 ERA) is scheduled to start for the Mariners, with right-hander Asher Wojciechowski (0-1, 4.50 ERA) slated to pitch for the Astros.

M’s bullpen ‘does nice job’ in win over Texas

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE – Perhaps overlooked among the heroes of Seattle’s come-from-behind, 11-10 victory over the Texas Rangers on Sunday afternoon might be the group that kept the Mariners’ early deficit from ballooning out of control.

That would be the bullpen.

After starter James Paxton recorded only eight outs and allowed seven runs, the Mariners relied upon lefty Tyler Olson to get them into the fifth; righty Carson Smith to get them into the sixth; righty Dominic

M’s From Page C1

Texas constructed its big inning slowly. It began with a bunt single, then a throwing error by shortstop Willie Bloomquist. Prince Fielder knocked an RBI single. Adrian Beltre dribbled an infield hit to third base. Shin-Soo Choo drove in a run with a groundout.

Adam Rosales drove in another run with a single. Rougned Odor drove in another run with another groundout, which would have been an inningending double play if he hadn’t beaten Bloomquist’s throw to first base.

Then Jake Smolinski upped the ante, belting a two-run homer to left field, before a ground-rule double by Carlos Corporan and an RBI single by Leonys Martin chased Paxton from the game. Only two of the seven runs were earned, but that was little consolation after Paxton’s second consecutive rocky outing.

“Things weren’t going my way, but I also wasn’t making good pitches,” said Paxton, who has now allowed 12 runs in his

Leone to get them through the eighth; and Yoervis Medina to pitch a scoreless ninth inning to keep Texas from adding to a lead that had dwindled to 10-9.

All told, Seattle’s bullpen allowed four hits and three runs in 61⁄3 innings on Sunday, quieting the Rangers’ bats just well enough to allow Nelson Cruz and the rest of the Mariners’ offense to complete the comeback.

“The bullpen did a nice job for us,” Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said. “Olson did a nice job for us. He made a couple mistakes, but other than that, he did a nice job.”

Olson allowed three runs in the sixth inning after Elvis Andrus led off with a double, and Shin-Soo Choo and Adam Rosales both hit RBI singles.

But Smith entered the game and coaxed two outs to end that inning, and Leone and Medina kept Texas off the board the rest of the game.

“You want to keep it close, try to have the opportunity for our team to come back like we did,” said Olson, a rookie who pitched at Gonzaga. “Obviously, your main goal is to have short innings, just to take some of the pressure off the rest of our bullpen.”

last two starts. “I was staying in the middle of the zone too much and also making mistakes. I’m struggling right now, but I’m not going to quit fighting. I’m going to figure it out and persevere.”

The Mariners (5-7) did, even though after Cruz pulled them within 7-5 with his second homer — two more hits forced Texas to remove starter Ross Detwiler, whose day was as rough as Paxton’s — the Rangers got to Seattle reliever Tyler Olson for three runs in the sixth inning to take a 10-5 lead.

Seager made it 10-6 by singling in Cano from second base in the seventh, and after Rangers reliever Taylor Scheppers walked the bases loaded in the eighth, Cano drew another walk from reliever Keone Kela (a Chief Sealth High School alum) to force in a run and cut the deficit to 10-7.

Two batters later, Seager rifled a single to right-center to score two runs off Feliz and pull Seattle within 10-9.

Feliz stayed in the game for the ninth, attempting to record a rare, five-out save.

He couldn’t. Brad Miller, who entered as a pinch-hitter in the seventh, singled to start

the inning. Seth Smith, who entered as a pinch-hitter and drew a crucial walk in the eighth, worked a lengthy atbat for another important walk to give the Mariners runners at first and second with one out.

Jackson followed with a game-tying, RBI single that capped an eight-pitch at-bat, and after Rickie Weeks flew out to center field, the Rangers chose to intentionally walk Cano to load the bases for Cruz with two outs.

On Feliz’s fifth pitch — and his 47th of the game, the most he’s thrown as a reliever — Cruz ripped a fastball into left field, and the celebration was on.

“I’m glad he’s on our side,” Miller said. “Obviously he got us going early, and just to battle back ... I think we all knew he was going to come up for us there.”

Said McClendon: “I don’t think you can ask for anything better, both the eighth and the ninth, (than) to have your 3-4-5 hitters up. Sometimes they’ll get it done and sometimes they won’t. We just happened to have our hottest hitter at the plate in that situation.”

5 Royals ejected in 4-2 win over A’s Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — After Oakland and Kansas City cleared the benches for the third straight game and five more Royals got ejected, Lorenzo Cain tried to put a positive spin on the day.

“We didn’t get into a fight, so that’s always good,” he said.

Hit by a pitch early, Cain came back to deliver a key blow, a tying double during a three-run rally in the eighth inning that sent the Royals over Oakland 4-2 on a tense Sunday.

Cain stole third after his hit and later scored on Kendrys Morales’ go-ahead double.

The trouble started right away when Kansas City manager Ned Yost and pitching coach Dave Eiland were ejected in the first inning after Cain was hit by a pitch from Scott Kazmir. That prompted plate umpire Greg Gibson to warn both teams.

“I’m not really sure if it was intentional,” Cain said. “I felt like it was intentionally. He (Kazmir) did ask if I was OK.” “No one likes getting hit. It doesn’t feel good. It was definitely an intense series. A lot of guys got hit by pitches. A lot of bench clearings,” he said.

Cain said that at least the sides avoided a brawl.

“Fighting is not the most important thing. Winning the ballgame, beating those guys is what hurts. The way we beat them tonight is huge,” he said.

Sources: Tebow expected to sign with Eagles Rob Maaddi Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — It’s Tebow Time in the City of Brotherly Love.

Tim Tebow is expected to sign a one-year contract with the Eagles on Monday, according to three people familiar with the deal. The people spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity Sunday because the contract hasn’t been finalized.

Tebow hasn’t played in the NFL since 2012 with the New York Jets. He was released by the New England Patriots before the 2013 season and spent last year working in television as an analyst for the SEC Network and ESPN. Despite being out of the league, the 27-year-old Tebow remained one of the most popular players around. He has a legion of fans who follow him because of his strong Christian beliefs.

The former Heisman Trophy winner led Florida to two national titles and was a first-round pick

by Denver in 2010. He started 16 games during two seasons with the Broncos, including a playoff victory over Pittsburgh in January 2012.

Tebow was traded to the Jets after Denver signed Peyton Manning.

The 27-year-old Tebow joins quarterbacks Sam Bradford, Mark Sanchez, Matt Barkley and G.J. Kinne on Philadelphia’s roster.

The addition of Tebow would be the latest move in a stunning offseason for coach Chip Kelly. He traded Nick Foles, LeSean McCoy and allowed Jeremy Maclin to leave in free agency.

Tebow worked out for the Eagles last month and Kelly later said he’s always “been a fan of Tim.�

Tebow had some success in Denver, but his inaccurate passing and lack of pocket presence was an issue. His strength has

NFL draft prospects change positions

By John Zeno Associated Press

Fifteen months after leading Auburn to a Southeastern Conference title as a quarterback, Nick Marshall is preparing for a career as an NFL cornerback.

It’s a major switch even for a player who started his college career as a cornerback at Georgia. But Marshall is far from the only draft prospect who figures to turn pro at a position different from where he spent the majority of his college career.

Auburn teammates and coaches are confident Marshall can successfully navigate the move. “Some people are just football players,� said Trovon Reed, who played both wide receiver and cornerback for the Tigers. “You’re not going to sell Nick on one position. Nick could go out there and play receiver, he could go play safety. He’s a football player.�

Improving the chances of being a pro football player is motivation enough to switch from throwing passes to defending them — or catching them.

Or for a move from defensive end to outside linebacker or hybrid roles. That’s a possibility for star pass rushers including likely first-rounders Dante Fowler Jr. (Florida), Randy Gregory (Nebraska), Vic Beasley (Clemson) and Bud Dupree (Kentucky).

None of them appears to be sweating the adjustment too much. “It’s not been real tough,� Beasley said. “You’ve just got to keep your mind on the right things and that you’re working against other competition.�

They’ve got plenty of company.

BUTCH DILL / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Auburn quarterback Nick Marshall has switched to cornerback in an attempt to improve his chances of playing in the NFL.

Former Florida State starting left tackle Cameron Erving moved to center late in his senior season and projects as the top NFL prospect at that position, a potential first-rounder.

Other players also began transitions in college, sometimes blossoming into stars. Highly rated Pittsburgh offensive tackle T.J. Clemmings spent his first two seasons as a reserve defensive end. That relative inexperience as a blocker might be regarded as an asset by some teams taking more of a long view. “I think that’s one reason why teams are intrigued with him, because they see him as a player that’s only been over there for two years, so they see a real upside with him,� said Senior Bowl executive director Phil Savage, a former Cleveland Browns general manager.

Others are just seeking entry

into the league, if not an immediate huge payday. Oklahoma’s Blake Bell and Arkansas’ A.J. Derby both switched from quarterback to tight end as seniors.

Bell started eight games at quarterback as a junior and eight games at tight end in his final season. Oregon State’s Obum Gwacham was a receiver until his senior season and now is projected as a defensive end or outside linebacker. Michigan’s Devin Gardner started 27 games at quarterback and four at receiver, where he’s trying to make it in the pros.

Yale’s Tyler Varga, at 5-foot-11, 225 pounds, scored a schoolrecord 26 touchdowns last season, but is moving from running back to fullback.

All are projected as late-round picks or free agents.

Marshall, meanwhile, didn’t commit to defense until after

his arrival at the Senior Bowl in January.

Dismissed from Georgia in 2011, he moved back to offense in junior college and at Auburn passed for 4,508 yards and ran for 1,866 in two seasons.

At Auburn’s pro day, Marshall participated in defensive back drills, threw passes to teammates and fielded kicks. The busy day illustrated potentially different roles in all phases, including as a wildcat-style quarterback, for the projected mid-to-late-round pick. “I’m locked into defensive back right now,� Marshall said at his pro day, “but to be on anybody’s team I’ll do what they want me to do.�

Marshall ran a respectable 4.54 40 at the NFL combine, but made a solid impression at the Senior Bowl given his 11th-hour switchover. “I thought he flashed more than enough ability for people to really be interested and do their homework on him as a cornerback, because at 6-11⠄2, 205 pounds, he’s exactly what these coaches are looking for from a size standpoint,� Savage said. “His speed has been right on the edge of being fast enough to stay at corner.�

Nebraska’s Scott Frost moved from quarterback to safety and was a third-round pick in 1998.

There are other success stories for former quarterbacks staying on offense such as Michigan’s Gardner. Indiana’s Antwaan Randle El had a nine-year NFL career as a wide receiver. The New England Patriots’ Julian Edelman, a former Kent State starting quarterback, has evolved from a star return man to a go-to receiver, catching the winning touchdown pass in the Super Bowl in February.

Savage has some experience

been running the ball or improvising. Tebow has completed just 47.9 percent of his passes for 2,422 yards, 17 touchdowns and nine interceptions. He has 989 yards rushing, a 5.0 average yards per carry and 12 TDs. Tebow worked with former major league pitcher Tom House on improving his mechanics. He joins the Eagles in time to start their offseason program this week.

GOLF | Roundup

Furyk wins playoff to take RBC Heritage Associated Press HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Jim Furyk won the RBC Heritage on Sunday, making birdies on both playoff holes to outlast Kevin Kisner.

Furyk was ahead by a stroke when Kisner birdied the 72nd hole to force the playoff, the fourth in the last six tournaments at Harbour Town.

Furyk won the 2010 event on the first playoff hole after Brian Davis called a two-stroke penalty on himself for moving a loose impediment in a hazard during his backswing.

On the first extra hole, Kisner rolled in a second straight birdie putt on the 18th. But Furyk, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, answered with a birdie to keep the playoff going.

After Kisner missed his birdie try on No. 17, Furyk sank a 12-foot putt for his 17th career PGA Tour win. He dropped his putter and punched the air in celebration.

Furyk shot an 8-under 63 and Kisner had a 64 to finish at 18-under 266.

Rain halts Gwinnett DULUTH, Ga. — Olin Browne won the Champions Tour’s Greater Gwinnett Championship after constant rain forced the cancellation of the final round.

The 57-year-old Browne set the tournament record with a secondround 64 to take the lead at 12 under.

Bernhard Langer then matched the record to move into second place, a stroke back.

Rain forced Friday’s first round to be suspended and then completed Saturday morning. There was more rain, but no delays, on Saturday, followed by heavy rain Saturday night and Sunday morning.

Neagle joins scoring party

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

One of the most thrilling moments of the Seattle Sounders’ win at Colorado on Saturday turned out to be an utter dud.

In the 29th minute, Clint Dempsey and Obafemi Martins found themselves on a 75-yard, two-on-two break down the center of the pitch. Martins carried for about 50 of the yards before trickling a botched pass hopelessly out of Dempsey’s reach.

So, nothing. That time ...

Martins would make up for it in spades later.

But still, the eight seconds it took for Dempsey and Martins to counter up the pitch were about exciting as any in Seattle sports.

It was Griffey up with the bases loaded. It was Payton on breaking down the right side with Kemp speeding down the left. The result might be a strikeout or a home run, a block or a dunk. But as it unfolds fans hardly breathe and they

certainly don’t look away.

Now in their third season together in green, Dempsey and Martins are approaching that status.

They already are the most entertaining and dangerous tandem in Major League Soccer.

But two talents can take a soccer team only so far, and through their first five matches, Dempsey and Martins bore the entire scoring load for Seattle.

And so it was comforting on Saturday when Lamar Neagle belatedly joined the party with a pair of goals.

“It’s great to get on the board,” Neagle said, “to finally get some shots on goal last week, and this week actually ended up putting some in.”

The Federal Way native had 17 goals over his last two seasons in Seattle, including a career-high nine last year. But he hadn’t scored over the first five games of this season, which both he and coach Sigi Schmid publicly noted

was off to a poor start.

His April 12 performance in Los Angeles was tough in two ways: He wasn’t able to score in five shots on goal; while those several good opportunities while filling in at Clint Dempsey’s forward spot reinforced the concern that Neagle is playing out of position as a wide midfielder.

Schmid never bought into that, and Neagle’s brace produced a chance to repeat the point.

“He can score from the wing,” Schmid said. “He doesn’t have to be up front.

I thought he had an uptick game last week up front, and he was able to transfer that onto the wing.”

With Neagle now in the scoring column, Seattle’s offensive contributions seem spread out more evenly and sustainably: Martins four goals, Dempsey three, Neagle two — with 2014 multi-goalscorers Chad Barrett, Marco Pappa, Gonzalo Pineda and Andy Rose yet to break through.

right now and they could be walking away. But I’m proud of the way we came in here tonight. We had the right attitude in how we played in the second period, and Everett wasn’t going to quit. They kept coming and coming.”

Nicolas Petan added a goal and two assists for Portland, which will face Kelowna as it goes for its fifth straight conference title. Hill finished with 31 saves.

Jordan Wharrie scored the other goal for Everett, while Nikita Scherbak dished out two assists. Carter Hart made 28 saves in net for the Tips.

Though the series finished 4-1, it felt much closer than that. Three of Everett’s losses came by a single goal, with two of those coming in overtime.

“If we get a bounce or two in any of those overtime games it could have been 3-1 us coming home today,” Bauml said.

“But that’s the way the cards were dealt, they put the puck in the net and that’s the way she goes.”

Everett then could have folded up shop Sunday after falling behind 3-1. But the Tips got themselves back in the game late in the second period. Everett was on the rush when Scherbak spied MacDonald jumping off the bench trailing the play. Scherbak fed the puck across the ice, and MacDonald rifled a shot from the top of the left circle past Hill, getting Everett back within one with 1:07 remaining.

The Tips then pushed hard in the third period, forcing Hill into a series of saves. The biggest of those came with six minutes remaining. The Winterhawks turned the puck over deep in their own end, giving Carson Stadnyk a chance to set up Nikoloshin at the far post for what seemed like a certain goal. But Hill, who played a part in the turnover, moved like lightning to make a diving pad save and somehow keep it 3-2.

Everett had other chances with Hart pulled for an extra attacker, but the Winterhawks held on to advance.

The loss ended a season that saw Everett, projected by most to finish third in the U.S. Division, win both its first division title and playoff series in eight years.

It also ended a series in which the Tips were forced to play without several key regulars because of injuries.

“It was a difficult task, guys were logging extra minutes,” Everett assistant coach Brennan Sonne said. “But at the

same time we’re extremely proud as coaches that other guys stepped up and in big minutes performed. They played with courage and heart, and that’s all you can ask of guys.

“Our leadership group all year has been spectacular, they’ve been our rock,” Sonne added. “The younger guys look to them to lead the way and Bauml, (Brayden) Low and (Ben) Betker as 20-year-olds did that.”

Portland came out like a team determined to end the series during a wide-open first period. The Winterhawks grabbed an early lead on the power play at 6:43 as Petan’s shot from the right circle through traffic got past Hart to make it 1-0. Portland had other good chances in the period, but put the puck wide.

It was after one of those missed opportunities that Everett tied it. The Winterhawks couldn’t capitalize on a juicy rebound and the Tips headed the other direction. Graham Millar played Wharrie in on the right, and Wharrie’s shot just got through Hill and trickled over the goal line to tie it at 1-1 at 12:10.

Portland threatened to run away with it again early in the second period, with Bjorkstrand scoring twice to give the Winterhawks a 3-1 lead. First, at 3:19, he tucked home a rebound following Petan’s shot from the point. Then at 8:40 Portland broke three-on-two and Bjorkstrand fired a shot past Hart from the high slot.

But just when it appeared the game could get out of hand, Everett answered.

Time was winding down in the period when Carson Stadnyk put a shot off the crossbar, and shortly after MacDonald scored to set up the frantic final period.

Slap shots Everett was again without defenseman Noah Juulsen. Juulsen, who missed the first four games of the series because of injury, took the warm-up, but was unable to play. The Tips were also without wingers Dawson Leedahl and Jake Mykitiuk and defenseman Tristen Pfeifer because of injuries. … With four players out injured, the Tips handed a WHL debut to Spencer Gerth. The 16-year-old winger was called up last week.
