Her predicament stemmed from a friend’s arrest a year earlier, she told detectives. The friend was caught with $40,000 of illegal drugs. After the arrest, she said cartel representatives See STORY, Page A6

Sound Transit is planning to discuss its draft list of expansion projects and city officials want to ensure it makes good on its promises.

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — More than 20 years ago leaders from the agency now known as Sound Transit vowed to make a priority of bringing light rail to Everett.

The original vision included Everett as a key destination, along with Seattle, Bellevue and Tacoma.

“Guess what? We all know that didn’t happen,” Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson said.

Nor is it expected to materialize until the early 2030s — at the earliest.

Everett’s mayor wants to ensure that Sound Transit makes good on its promise to his city, as the agency looks toward crafting a ballot measure to pay for another round of expansion.

Voters in Snohomish, King and Pierce counties could decide as early as November 2016 whether to fund added service through a combination of higher taxes on property, retail sales and motor vehicles. Competing bills in the state House and Senate would authorize up to $15 billion and $11 billion, respectively.

The Sound Transit board is scheduled to discuss a draft list of expansion projects — known as ST3 — during its regular meeting from 1:30 to 4 p.m. Thursday.

Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg, YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki and first lady Michelle Obama.

Pop star Taylor Swift didn’t shine brightly enough to be classed with these luminaries. But, lower down on the Forbes list, she is shaking it off at No. 64.

“Such is her power,” Business Insider wrote, “Swift is one of the most followed celebrities on Twitter with 58 million followers, Forbes estimates her earnings last year were $64 million ... and there

were rumors earlier this year that her legs were ensured for $40 million.”

First launched in 2004, the Forbes list of powerful women is billed as the magazine’s “definitive annual audit of the foremost heads of state, iconic entrepreneurs and CEOs, celebrity role models, billionaire activists, and pioneer philanthropists, all ranked by money, media momentum, spheres of influence and impact.”

Swift wasn’t the only entertainer on Forbes’s list, nor the most powerful

one — that would be Beyonce Knowles at No. 21 or, depending on how one defines entertainment, Oprah Winfrey at No. 12.

“The bona fide, crossgenre global megastar has not only broken record sales and captivated the world with her fantastically honest music, but she has proven herself as an impressive businesswoman,” Forbes wrote about Swift. “Late last year, the pop-country singer pulled her entire catalogue from Spotify, making at a strike for the notion that streaming services don’t

adequately compensate artists.”

Swift’s stand against the ubiquitous streaming service was foreshadowed by an opinion piece about the music industry she wrote for The Wall Street Journal last year pointing out the importance of “fan power.”

“For me, this dates back to 2005 when I walked into my first record-label meetings, explaining to them that I had been communicating directly with my fans on this new site called Myspace,” Swift wrote. “In the future, artists will get record deals

because they have fans — not the other way around.”

Since the piece appeared, Swift has also joined the ranks of those offering tunes on Jay Z’s new service Tidal, a much-criticized attempt to give artists a bigger share of the profits they generate — though there have been reports Swift might ditch Tidal for Apple’s streaming service Beats.

At 25, Swift was also the youngest on the Forbes list, followed by 31-year-old Elizabeth Holmes (No. 72), founder of the blood-test company Theranos.

Bob Schieffer says he is ready for retirement Associated Press WASHINGTON — At 78, Bob Schieffer is entitled to reminisce about the “good old days” of reporting. He believes young people coming into the business can also learn from them.

Schieffer will host CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday for the last time after 24 years. He’s retiring from a journalism career that began at 20 at a Fort Worth radio station and landed him at CBS News in Washington when he walked in on someone else’s

interview.

He’s one of the last of a generation of reporters working at such a Bob Schieffer high level; he covered the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, a story that gave him one of the biggest scoops of his career.

“I suppose every generation thinks that the kids younger than them aren’t as good as they were and screwed it up in some way,”

he said. “I try not to sound like an old goat, but the fact is there will always be a need for reporters, whether they are doing it on television or a website or for a newspaper that is not on paper anymore.”

He learned the craft of reporting, and the importance of checking out facts, from hard-bitten newspaper editors. He’s concerned that many young journalists now work in jobs without editors to guide them.

His Kennedy scoop was a spectacular example of

the importance of simply answering the phone. As a newspaper reporter in Fort Worth in November 1963, he picked up a ringing phone to find Lee Harvey Oswald’s mother on the line. She was looking for a ride to Dallas to see her son, the suspected gunman in the Kennedy assassination. Schieffer grabbed a notebook and drove right over to her.

Recently, an aspiring reporter in Texas sent Schieffer a note seeking advice on a school project.

Schieffer sent his phone number and the student

replied that he’d rather talk via email. Schieffer Rule No. 1: Pick up the phone or drop by.

“How do you ask a follow-up question?” he said.

“How do you listen to a person and the tone of his voice to know whether he’s putting you on? The best way to interview someone is face-to-face and I think we ought to get to that whenever we can.”

Chances are he won’t completely disappear from CBS News. For now, he’s looking forward to a summer off.

Like it or not, Lamborghini to build new SUV Associated Press MILAN — Super sports carmaker Lamborghini confirmed Wednesday it will enter the luxury SUV market and signed a deal to produce the new vehicle in Italy after receiving more than 80 million euros ($87

million) in government incentives.

Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann said at the signing ceremony in Rome with Premier Matteo Renzi that the Italian package “was the most competitive and won” against a rival bid

from Slovakia.

The deal is expected to create 500 jobs at Lamborghini’s Sant’Agata factory near Bologna, reinforcing the country’s long-suffering auto sector.

The launch of the Urus SUV, which was unveiled as a concept at the Beijing

Auto Show in 2012, also broadens Lamborghini’s portfolio beyond two sleek two-seat super sports cars — the Aventador and the Huracan — into the expanding SUV market.

IHS Automotive lead analyst Ian Fletcher said the Urus SUV is an

important addition to the Lamborghini brand, with the potential to attract new customers ‘’who find the dramatic styling of Lamborghini products appealing, but find its typical sports cars restrictive.”

The Urus SUV is expected to enter the market in 2018.

Edmonds a winner in House roads budget

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — State lawmakers are ready to help the city of Edmonds curb the frequent traffic back-ups on the waterfront caused by all the trains traveling through town.

On Wednesday, the state House approved a new two-year transportation budget that gives the city $500,000 to conduct a study on ways of solving the problem.

The budget passed on a 74-20 vote and was sent to the

Senate, where it is expected to be approved Thursday, the final day of a special session of the Legislature.

“We know we have a problem and there are a lot of ideas out there for a solution,” said Rep. Strom Peterson, D-Edmonds, a former Edmonds City Council member. “We don’t know what’s feasible. This study will give us an idea of what we’ll be able to do on this significant transportation corridor.”

While Edmonds sought $1.2 million, Peterson said, the $500,000 will be enough to

produce a report about options.

The broader measure the House adopted Wednesday is not the much-discussed multibilliondollar package of new statewide transportation projects to be paid for with a gas tax increase. Rather, it is the budget which directs spending in the next biennium of money already being collected from gas taxes and assorted fees, such as vehicle registration.

Those dollars pay for operations of the Washington State Patrol, Washington State Ferries and the departments of Licensing and Transportation,

including the salaries of most of their employees.

For the most part, the budget only continues existing operations of those agencies and assures there are no hiccups with ongoing projects. There are a few new items, including roughly $470,000 for Island Transit to restart a popular route from Camano Island to Stanwood and downtown Everett. Island Transit will only receive the money if it makes riders pay a fare, which it does not currently do.

The budget also lays the groundwork for a 2.5 percent

increase in ferry fares this fall and again next fall. The Washington State Transportation Commission will hold hearings to decide the amount and timing.

Securing money for the Edmonds study culminates more than two years of effort by city officials and state representatives.

The state dollars will be combined with $100,000 from the city and $25,000 from the Port of Edmonds to pay for an analysis of alternatives to improve traffic flow to and from the waterfront, See BUDGET, Page A4

Board OKs sale to YMCA

The students produced a series of panels built around four broad themes, such as the history of transit and surrealistic representations of buses. The resulting artwork range from a series of panels showing modes of transportation in silhouette, to a more wide-ranging exploration of human history, from prehistoric cave art to the invention of the wheel to modern and futuristic modes of transportation.

EVERETT — The Everett School Board has approved a plan to sell its former administration building to the YMCA of Snohomish County.

The board’s action Tuesday allows Everett Public Schools to negotiate a purchase and sale agreement for the property, which includes two buildings on an 8-acre lot at 4730 Colby Ave. The YMCA was one of six organizations proposing to buy the property, and one of three that Everett Public Schools negotiated with over the price.

The board voted 4-0 to move forward with the sale. Board Vice President Ted Wenta, who also is vice president of operations for the YMCA, was not in attendance and had recused himself from previous discussions of the deal.

The YMCA is offering $3.33 million for the property, which will become the future site of the YMCA’s Everett facility.

“The site is large enough to accommodate pretty much everything we’d consider,” said Scott Washburn, CEO of the YMCA of Snohomish County.

The YMCA’s current facility in downtown Everett has 3,600 members, the smallest number of any of the facilities in Snohomish County.

The 100,000-square-foot current facility is not used efficiently, with the upper stories of the century-old main building inaccessible to people with disabilities and largely used as storage space.

A new YMCA at the Colby property will be smaller, but would better serve the

EVERETT — What do cave paintings, locomotives and a banana have in common?

They’re all represented as motifs in student art that now adorns the Mariner Park and Ride lot in south Everett.

On Wednesday afternoon, about 40 art students from Mariner High School joined staff and officials from Community Transit to celebrate the unveiling of their work in a permanent installation on the sides of bus shelters.

About 60 students from the school contributed to painting 32 panels illustrated in a transitoriented themes.

Shoes skip by the surreal paintings on one side of a stop at the Mariner Park and Ride.

community and would likely drive a two- or three-fold increase in membership just by virtue of being a new and more modern facility, Washburn said.

The current plan would be to sell the downtown Everett property to help defray the cost of the new facility once the new YMCA opens. That’s likely to be several years from now because the YMCA has only just a general concept of what that new facility would be like, rather than a detailed plan, Washburn said.

Mike Gunn, the school district’s executive director of facilities and operations, said there are several steps in the sale process, including the drawing up of the final sale agreement, the legally required 45-day

process of declaring the property surplus, a twomonth feasibility period in which the YMCA evaluates the property, and then a two-month period to close the sale.

That puts closing nearly six months out. The school board will have to approve the final sale as well.

The school district has also tried to sell the historic Longfellow Building at 3715 Oakes Ave., but so far has not received a viable offer.

There have been a few further inquiries about the century-old building, but most conversations get hung up on the district’s need to maintain access to parking on the site for athletic events, Gunn said.

“What we really do need there is the parking,” Gunn said. “What we don’t need there is the building.”

the 1st Congressional District don’t know her.

Because it’s a large district — stretching from the Canadian border through Snohomish County into suburban east King County — she’ll need to spend lots of money to change that.

She’ll likely need to start raising cash now while still laboring in the Legislature’s special session.

DelBene spent in excess of $4 million to defeat a raft of Democratic opponents and Republican John Koster, of Arlington, in 2012, then another $2.3

million to beat Republican Pedro Celis in 2014. She already has $185,000 on hand for next year.

Another challenge for Scott will be corralling support from voters in the middle of the political spectrum — Republicans, Democrats and independents — who could decide the race. Many of those voters live in King County, don’t embrace Scott’s stances on social issues and thus might sit out this race or support DelBene.

Scott might not be DelBene’s only Republican

If a train breaks down in the area, which

happens occasionally, it can leave people stranded on either side of the tracks for an hour or more and keep emergency vehicles from getting into the area, city officials say.

Story: Two men arrested Tuesday From Page A1

showed up at her doorstep to deliver an ultimatum: sell drugs to pay off the debt or her family would be hurt.

The woman didn’t have names or phone numbers of the people higher up the drug pyramid. She said the gist of the arrangement was, “Don’t call us. We’ll call you.”

So the woman and the detectives waited.

On Tuesday, a goldcolored Nissan Frontier pickup pulled up to the home shortly before noon.

Detectives pulled over the truck and impounded it.

After getting a search warrant, they found an orange toolbox. The meth and heroin were inside.

The suspects, 24 and 21,

were arrested for investigation of extortion and possessing drugs with the intent to sell. Both men are from Mexico. Neither is a U.S. citizen.

Each is being held in jail on $250,000 bail.

Detectives continue to try to sort out the woman’s story.

“We are unclear at this point to what extent she

was involved,” said Lt. Doug Jeske of the regional drug and gang task force.

“How much of that was forced on her and how much was willing participation we just don’t know yet. I think it’s fair to say the case is ongoing and we will continue to work it.”

Rail: People have been taxed for years From Page A1

Stephanson and other Snohomish County leaders are nervous, in part, because transit authorities have been talking more lately about light-rail segments to places such as West Seattle and Ballard.

They’re worried that those destinations could come at the expense of Everett and other cities where people have been paying taxes since the 1990s based on the promise of the original plans.

While Tacoma, like Everett, also waits to join the light-rail line, the City of Destiny already is better connected in some ways.

The south line of the Sounder commuter train between Seattle and Tacoma carries at least nine times as many riders on an average weekday as the segment between Everett and Seattle. Moreover, the south line doesn’t have the mudslide problems that cause dozens of days of service disruption during the rainy season.

Downtown Tacoma also is served by a 1.6-mile lightrail line operated by Sound Transit.

A letter Stephanson sent to Sound Transit’s board Friday listed three destinations he believes light rail must reach in Everett: the Boeing Co. and other manufacturers clustered around Paine Field; the downtown transit hub

at Everett Station; and the expanding highereducation district around Everett Community College at the city’s north end.

“The purpose of my communication is to ensure that there is no misunderstanding about what ‘Getting to Everett’ means,” he said.

County Executive John Lovick, a Sound Transit board member, also wrote a joint letter with County Council Chairman Dave Somers about their hopes for the northward expansion of light rail. Their letter focuses on traffic congestion near future light-rail stations on 164th and 128th streets. It also stresses the importance of reaching Paine Field.

In 1994, the Regional Transit Authority board passed a motion declaring “that priority shall be given in subsequent phases to linking the four major centers of Everett, Seattle, Tacoma and Bellevue.” The motion also said that Everett “shall be a first priority” during a second phase of expansion. The transit authority started using the Sound Transit name a few years later.

An initial measure failed at the ballot in 1995. Voters approved a scaled-back plan known as Sound Move in 1996, agreeing to build out the rail and bus system in phases, Sound Transit spokesman Geoff Patrick said.

In 2008, voters approved an expansion known as ST2. That work remains under construction and reportedly is on track to bring light rail to Lynnwood and the Eastside by 2023.

Everett’s place in the light-rail picture won’t become clearer until at least 2016, if the Legislature agrees to put the funding measure to voters. The West Seattle and Ballard legs should help win over Seattle voters, Patrick said.

“The assumption is that a ballot measure, to be successful, would have to have investments that are considered important for all areas of the region,” he said.

Leaders at Sound Transit have discussed a 15-year timeline for building the third phase of the system, including the Everett segment, Patrick said.

Other points in Stephanson’s light-rail vision include working with Sound Transit to build a maintenance facility in Everett. The city also wants the agency to build a 1,000space parking garage at Everett Station.

Everett is expected to grow from about 105,000 people now to 170,000 by 2040. The city also expects to have 140,000 employees in 20 years, up from 95,000 now.

“We cannot sustain that level of growth without the introduction of light rail in our transportation system,”

the mayor’s letter says.

Economic Alliance Snohomish County also has been collecting signatures from civic and business leaders whose views on light rail align with Stephanson’s. Troy McClelland, the group’s president and CEO, said there’s a business case: Not only will it help employees reach jobs, it should free up the roadways for freight delivery.

“That means that trucks moving goods to manufacturers, they’re going to have better movement,” McClelland said. “These are all things that strengthen our economy and make us competitive with peer urban and suburban regions.”

Sound Transit imposes a sales and use tax of 0.9 percent, a motor vehicle excise tax of 0.3 percent, and a rental car sales and use tax of 0.8 percent. The taxing district stretches from Everett to south of Tacoma.

To pay for the next phase of expansion, the agency could ask voters to approve a property tax increase of up to 25 cents per $1,000 of assessed value ($75 per year for a $300,000 house); a 0.5 percent sale tax-increase (50 cents on a $100 purchase); and a bump in car tabs (0.8 percent, or $80 annually for a $10,000 vehicle).

“At the very least, they should be posting warning signs on these fields,” Johnson said. Some communities advise players to take steps such as having team members shower immediately after playing on the fields and washing sports clothes separately from household laundry, she said.

Jakala said she hasn’t heard of any formal request for the school district to post such signs.

The Lynnwood-based Verdant Health Commission received a report during its meeting Wednesday morning from Michael K. Peterson, a toxicologist who works for Gradient, a Seattle consulting firm.

Verdant paid Peterson $12,400 to review studies that have examined possible health risks from crumb rubber.

The chemical levels found in artificial turf “do not present a risk to people playing on or using the fields,” Peterson said in documents presented to the commission. Yet there have been concerns about possible health effects from the fill “related to data gaps or limitations,” according to his report.

Langer, of the health commission, said he understands that people are concerned about the safety of children. Information on possible health issues raised by crumb fill “is not conclusive but can make someone suspicious

about it,” he said.

If the school district wants the commission to consider increasing the budget for the project to include an alternative fill, “all they have to do is give us a call,” he said.

The commission can’t unilaterally decide to make the change in its contract with the school district, Langer said. The Verdant board “can’t impose its will on a sovereign municipality.”

Verdant signed an agreement with the school district to help pay for the sports fields in November.

The commission agreed to have an outside consultant review health issues surrounding the sports fields “out of an abundance of caution,” Langer said.

Installation of two artificial-turf fields is being paid for by $500,000 contributions each from the city of Edmonds and the school district, $750,000 in state money and $2.5 million from Verdant. The project is expected to be completed in the fall. The fields can be used for soccer, baseball and lacrosse.

The nonprofit Verdant Health Commission was asked to help fund the project as part of its mission to promote health and reduce childhood obesity in south Snohomish County. The city of Edmonds has discussed development of a sports complex since 2001.

Nebraska ends death penalty Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska abolished the death penalty Wednesday over the governor’s objections in a move pushed through the Legislature with unusual backing from conservatives who oppose capital punishment for religious, financial and practical reasons.

Senators in the one-house Legislature voted 30-19 to override the veto of Gov. Pete Ricketts, a Republican who supports the death penalty.

The vote makes Nebraska the first traditionally conservative state to eliminate the punishment since North Dakota in 1973.

The override vote — passed

by the narrowest possible margin — drew a burst of applause from death penalty opponents in the gallery above the legislative chamber.

“Whenever anything historic occurs, it’s never the doing of one person,” said Sen. Ernie Chambers, an independent who introduced a repeal measure 38 times. “I’ve been pushing for this for 40 years, but all of this time it’s never been done. If it could be done by one man, it would have been done a long time ago.”

Nebraska joins 18 other states and the District of Columbia in banning the ultimate punishment. Shortly after the vote, Ricketts issued a statement condemning the Legislature.

“My words cannot express how appalled I am that we have lost a critical tool to protect law enforcement and Nebraska families,” Ricketts said. “While the Legislature has lost touch with the citizens of Nebraska, I will continue to stand with Nebraskans and law enforcement on this important issue.”

Nebraska’s action to repeal the death penalty is unusual because of its traditionally conservative leanings. Maryland was the last state to end capital punishment, in 2013. Three other moderate-to-liberal states have done so in recent years: New Mexico in 2009, Illinois in 2011 and Connecticut in 2012.

Some senators said they philosophically support the

death penalty but became convinced the state will never carry out another execution because of legal obstacles.

Nebraska hasn’t executed an inmate since a 1997 electrocution, and the state has never done so with its current lethal injection protocol.

Other Republican senators said they listened carefully to leaders in the Catholic church who opposed capital punishment.

Sen. Jeremy Nordquist of Omaha, a Democrat and death penalty opponent, said Republican support was critical in the override effort. Nebraska’s officially nonpartisan Legislature is comprised of 35 registered Republicans, 13 Democrats and an independent.

Rick Santorum joins the fray Associated Press CABOT, Pa. — Conservative culture warrior Rick Santorum launched a 2016 White House bid Wednesday, vowing to fight for working-class Americans in a new election season that will test his influence — and focus on social issues — in a changing Republican Party.

The former Pennsylvania senator may have exceeded his own expectations by scoring a second-place finish in the race for the Republican presidential nomination four years ago. Yet as he enters a more powerful and diverse 2016 field, he may struggle even to qualify for the debate stage in his second run.

“I am proud to stand here, among you and for you, the American workers who have sacrificed so much, to announce that I am running for president of the United States,” the 57-year-old senator said, flanked by factory workers and six of his seven children in a cinderblock warehouse near his Pennsylvania hometown.

“The last race, we changed the debate. This race, with your help and God’s grace, we can change this nation.”

Santorum opens this political season as a heavy underdog in a race expected to feature more than a dozen high-profile Republicans — most of them newcomers to presidential politics. He is among the nation’s most prominent social conservatives, having dedicated much of his political career to opposing same-sex marriage and abortion rights, while advocating for conservative Christian family values.

He mentioned cultural issues briefly Wednesday in remarks designed to broaden his appeal to working-class

Texas, Oklahoma death toll rises to 21 HOUSTON — A barrage of storms and floods in Texas and Oklahoma left at least 21 people dead and 11 others missing Wednesday. More rain fell on the hard-hit Houston area, complicating the cleanup a day after a downpour of nearly a foot triggered the worst flooding the nation’s fourth-largest city has seen in years. Hundreds of homes were damaged. Severe weather continued in other parts of Texas, with hundreds of people west of Fort Worth told to evacuate along the Brazos River and flash flood warnings posted in other areas.

D.C.: Kasich to join race Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who has been actively gauging reactions to a possible campaign for president in 2016, is now moving rapidly to assemble the staff and financial resources for such a bid and is looking to declare his candidacy sometime after June 30, knowledgeable Republicans said. The two-term governor and former House member is running through a checklist before formally entering the race, but strategists close to Kasich and other longtime friends say there is no doubt that he will soon join the crowded field of those vying for the GOP nomination.

Minnesota: Trestle burns An old wooden railroad bridge near the northern border burned and collapsed Wednesday, shutting a busy train route that connects the Pacific Coast with Chicago. The bridge in Koochiching County belongs to Canadian National Railway. It carried more than 20 trains over the Rat Root River daily until it collapsed. A CN spokesman said the crew of a southbound train approaching the bridge reported a fire on the trestle just after 12:30 a.m.

The train came to a stop but only after it had crossed the bridge. The bridge was destroyed, but the crew was not hurt.

California: iPhone glitch KEITH SRAKOCIC / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum stands with his family as he announces his candidacy for the Republican nomination for president Wednesday in Cabot, Pennsylvania.

Americans. “As president, I will stand for the principle that every life matters — the poor, the disabled and the unborn,” said Santorum, a Catholic.

He ultimately won 11 states in the GOP’s 2012 primary election after an unexpected and narrow victory in the opening contest in Iowa, where he emerged as a conservative favorite after touring the state’s 99 counties in a pickup truck.

His road to relevancy this time won’t be easy.

“It’s going to be much more competitive,” said Foster Friess, a prominent donor who was standing near the podium during Wednesday’s announcement.

Santorum has acknowledged his challenges in 2016, but says his experience could pay dividends the second time around. Most of

the GOP’s recent presidential nominees, Mitt Romney and President Ronald Reagan among them, needed more than one campaign to win the nomination.

He faces considerable competition for his party’s social conservatives in particular.

The list of Republicans already courting religious voters includes former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, a Baptist pastor who won the Iowa caucuses in 2008, former Texas Gov. Rick Perry, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. And like Santorum, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is a Catholic.

Polling suggests a shift in voter attitudes about the importance of social issues, particularly gay marriage, which has long been a defining issue for Santorum. Like others

in his party, he has appealed to religious voters recently by criticizing what he calls President Barack Obama’s “war on religious freedom,” which includes the broader debate over whether private businesses can deny services to same-sex couples.

Santorum promised Wednesday to “fight for the freedom for you to believe what you are called to believe, not just in your places of worship, but outside your places of worship, too.”

His longshot status may keep him out of presidential debates altogether.

Only those who place in the top 10 of national polls will be allowed to participate in the first Republican presidential debate in August, according to guidelines released by network host Fox News.

Fossils show new human forerunner Associated Press A fossil find adds another twig to the human evolutionary tree, giving further evidence that the well-known “Lucy” species had company in what is now Ethiopia, a new study says.

A lower jaw, plus jaw fragments and teeth, dated at 3.3 million to 3.5 million years old, were found in the Afar region of Ethiopia four years ago. That shows a second human ancestor lived in about the same area and time frame as Lucy’s species, researchers said.

In a paper released Wednesday by the journal Nature, the researchers announce the new find and assign it to a species they dubbed Australopithecus deyiremeda. In the Afar language the second name means “close relative,” referring to its apparent relationship to later members of the evolutionary tree.

But nobody knows just how it’s related to our own branch of

the family tree, said Yohannes Haile-Selassie of the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, who led the discovery team.

Our branch, which includes Homo sapiens and our closest extinct relatives, arose from the evolutionary grouping that now includes the new creature as well as Lucy’s species. The new arrival, and the possibility of still more to

come, complicates the question of which species led to our branch, he said.

Previously, fossilized foot bones found in 2009 near the new discovery site had indicated the presence of a second species. But those bones were not assigned to any species, and it’s not clear whether they belong to the newly identified species either, Haile-Selassie

said. If they don’t, that would indicate yet another species from the same time and region as Lucy’s species, Australopithecus afarensis Bernard Wood of George Washington University, who didn’t participate in the new work, said the discovery provides “compelling evidence” that a second creature lived in the vicinity of Lucy’s species at the same time. The next question, he said, is how they shared the landscape.

“These fossils certainly create an agenda for a lot of interesting research that’s going to be done in the next decade,” Wood said.

But Tim White, a University of California, Berkeley, expert in human evolution, was unimpressed. He said he thinks the fossils actually come from Lucy’s species.

“Anatomical variation within a biological species is normal,” he said. “That’s why so many announcements of this sort are quickly overturned.”

Andhra Pradesh state was the worst hit, where 884 people had died of heatstroke since May 18. Of the total fatalities in Andhra Pradesh, 668 deaths were reported between Saturday and Monday, a period when the mercury peaked at 118 degrees in certain areas, disaster officials said. Another 269 people died in the neighboring state of Telangana since April 15, they said.

Singapore: Airliner falls Singapore Airlines said Wednesday that it is investigating how one of its jets suffered a loss of power in both of its engines over the weekend and descended 13,000 feet before regaining altitude en route from Singapore to Shanghai. The Airbus A330-300 was carrying 182 passengers and 12 crew members when the incident occurred Saturday, the airline said. The jet lost power in both engines after hitting bad weather 3 ½ hours into the flight, but one engine quickly resumed normal operations, it said. The airlines said no “anomalies” were detected in either of the engines after the plane landed.

Belgium: Air traffic woes A power failure at a control center paralyzed most air traffic in and over the nation much of Wednesday and caused chaos at Brussels airport because of delays, detours and cancellations of flights. Planes slowly started flying again by mid-afternoon but by that time, thousands of passengers at Brussels airport had been affected. Some passengers were left sitting in their planes on the runway for hours while others landed in neighboring nations or missed international connections.

GOP assails federal water rules

By Mary Clare Jalonick Associated Press

WASHINGTON — New federal rules designed to better protect small streams, tributaries and wetlands — and the drinking water of 117 million Americans — are being criticized by Republicans and farm groups as going too far.

The White House said the rules, issued Wednesday, will provide much-needed clarity for landowners about which waterways must be protected

against pollution and development. But House Speaker John Boehner declared they will send “landowners, small businesses, farmers, and manufacturers on the road to a regulatory and economic hell.”

The rules, issued by the Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, aim to clarify which smaller waterways fall under federal protection after two Supreme Court rulings left the reach of the Clean Water Act uncertain. EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy

said the waters affected would be only those with a “direct and significant” connection to larger bodies of water downstream that are already protected.

The Supreme Court decisions in 2001 and 2006 left 60 percent of the nation’s streams and millions of acres of wetlands without clear federal protection, according to EPA, causing confusion for landowners and government officials.

The new rules would kick in and force a permitting process only if a business or landowner took steps to pollute or destroy

covered waters.

EPA says the rules will help landowners understand exactly which waters fall under the Clean Water Act. For example, a tributary must show evidence of flowing water to be protected — such as a bank or a high water mark.

President Barack Obama said that while providing that clarity for business and industry, the rules “will ensure polluters who knowingly threaten our waters See WATER, Page A10

Climate experts rejected Exxon Mobil and Chevron shareholders turn down calls to put advocates for environmental change on their boards.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson speaks in Washington on March 27. He said Wednesday that technology can help deal with rising sea levels or changing weather patterns.

issues, and it gained only 21 percent support. The outcome was the same at the Chevron meeting.

Michael Crosby, sponsor of the resolution at the Exxon meeting, said the company is fixated on oil and gas and isn’t paying enough attention to renewable energy and climate change.

“This company has to be making plans for the future,” he said.

“Let’s get an expert on the board to deal with a critical question.”

Others proposed that Exxon Mobil and Chevron set goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from its products, such as gasoline, but those got less than 10 percent support. Vermont state treasurer Beth Pearce said institutional investors are growing more concerned about the topic, and Exxon management’s strategy for diversifying its production beyond oil and gas has been “wholly inadequate.”

Measures calling for reports on the impact of hydraulicfracturing drew 25 percent support at Exxon and 27 percent at Chevron.

On climate change, Exxon CEO Tillerson said that models predicting the effects of global warming aren’t very good and that it would be very hard for the world to meet aggressive emission-reduction targets. He said technology can help deal with rising sea levels or changing weather patterns “that may or may not be induced by climate change.”

“Mankind has this enormous capacity to deal with adversity,” Tillerson said. “I know that is an unsatisfactory answer to a lot of people.”

Exxon Mobil and other oil companies have faced frequent proposals dealing with climate change and other environmental

issues, and they are regularly defeated. In January, Royal Dutch Shell agreed to back a shareholder resolution requiring the company to commit to reduce emissions and invest in renewable energy.

Tillerson repeated his longheld view that renewable energy is not economical yet, adding, “We choose not to lose money on purpose.” Shareholders in the hall broke into applause.

Exxon earned $32.5 billion last year, down less than 1 percent from 2013. However, oil prices fell by about half in late 2014, and Exxon’s profit in the first quarter of 2015 tumbled 46 percent compared with the same period in 2014, although it still earned $4.9 billion.

Exxon Mobil shares fell 24 cents to $85.11 on Wednesday while Chevron shares lost 18 cents to close at $103.11.

NLRB rejects union complaint against Boeing The National Labor Relations Board has dismissed a complaint filed by the Machinists union against Boeing stemming from the union’s attempt to organize workers at the company’s North Charleston, South Carolina, operations. The union announced last month it was delaying a union vote among 3,200 Boeing eligible production workers, citing what it called a toxic atmosphere and political interference.

The union also filed an unfair labor practice complaint with the NLRB. The board’s Claude Harrell in Atlanta dismissed the complaint saying there was insufficient evidence to show that Boeing violated federal labor laws. The union has said it will try to hold another vote later. The earliest another union vote can be held is October.

Japanese reactors get OK to restart

Associated Press DALLAS — Shareholders of big oil companies overwhelmingly rejected several environmental resolutions including proposals to put climate-change experts on their boards and set goals for greenhouse-gas emissions.

The votes at meetings of Exxon Mobil Corp. and Chevron Corp. shareholders Wednesday were expected. Some of the ideas had lost badly at previous annual meetings.

Lower prices for crude have cut into the oil giants’ profits. At the Exxon Mobil meeting in Dallas, CEO Rex Tillerson said the company is positioned to withstand ups and down in oil prices and give shareholders a good return on their money.

Tillerson has said that said that oil prices will remain low over the next two years because of large global supplies and weak economic growth.

The company is adjusting by cutting costs. Exxon has completed more than a dozen major projects in the past three years and expects an equal number to begin production through 2017. Exxon plans to cut capital spending as those projects are completed — from $38.5 billion last year to $34 billion this year and less in 2016 and 2017.

Shareholders rejected a proposal by an organization of Catholic priests in Milwaukee to put a climate-change expert on the board. The Exxon board opposed the resolution, saying several board members have engineering and scientific backgrounds and can handle climate

But that extreme example doesn’t tell us much about the real world, where minimum wage changes are usually only a few dollars.

There is a huge literature on the impact of minimum wages on employment. Many studies show very little effect, but there is a substantial minority of studies that show the opposite.

A nuclear plant in Japan on Wednesday obtained the final permit needed to restart its reactors, paving the way for it to become the first to go back online under new safety standards introduced after the 2011 Fukushima disaster. The Nuclear Regulation Authority approved operational safety plans for the Sendai nuclear power station’s two reactors, owned by Kyushu Electric Power Co., the last step of the authority’s three-part screening process the utility needed to pass. The plant’s safety program includes emergency response plans in case of fire, flooding or other natural disasters, or a serious accident.

BNSF planning employee furloughs BNSF Railway Co. said it’s planning employee furloughs due to slipping freight shipping demand across its rail network. The company said Wednesday it hopes to call back employees “as soon as business needs change.” The railroad would not say how many employees were being furloughed but that they are “at different locations across our network.” The railroad is the biggest player in North Dakota’s oil patch, hauling most of the more than 1.1 million barrels that moves out of the region daily.

He said food delivery is a popular customer request, but if it were to happen, it wouldn’t be lunch, and it wouldn’t be every day — only Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. “I think our ability to deliver Taco Bell would be a massive sales driver for the brand,” he said during a discussion at the Bernstein Strategic Decisions Conference in New York City.

other studies. Several meta-analyses have found that most of these studies find that minimum wages don’t have much of an effect on employment.

But despite this evidence, there are dissenters. Two of the most prominent are economists David Neumark and William Wascher, whose own numerous papers show a large negative employment effect of the minimum wage. These economists claim that while many studies show little effect, the more credible studies (including their own) show a bigger impact.

Some critics believe that the minimum wage causes a slowdown in employment growth, rather than an increase in unemployment. Others claim to show that high minimum wages force low-skilled workers to move to other states. These two ideas obviously fit together — if minimum wage hikes cause companies to stop hiring, unemployment may remain low if all the workers who can’t get jobs just end up moving elsewhere.

So there’s no firm consensus yet. The reason isn’t just politics (though I’m sure that plays a role), it’s the difficulty in getting clean tests of minimum wage increases. Another problem is that it’s hard to know anything about big hikes, which may have qualitatively different effects from the small changes usually

observed.

That’s why it’s so great that L.A. and other cities are experimenting with $15 minimum wages. That’s a hefty raise — L.A.’s previous minimum wage was $9.

Even though the $15 number will only be implemented by 2020 — which means that after inflation it will probably be less than $14 — that’s still more than a 50 percent increase.

Many free-marketers will see this as a disaster. Many interventionists will see it as a triumph. But identificationists like me see it as the closest thing we’ll get to a random controlled trial. We don’t really know what happens when you raise the minimum wage to $15 — but soon, we will know. We will be able to see whether employment rates fall in Seattle, L.A. and San Francisco. We will be able to see whether people who can’t get work migrate from these cities to cities with lower minimum wages. We will be able to see if employment growth suddenly slows after the enactment of the policy.

In other words, federalism will do its job, by allowing cities to act as policy laboratories for the rest of the country.

In the end, as in medicine, a randomly controlled trial is the best way to know whether a treatment works. The early evidence said that minimum wages are a medicine without too many harmful side effects, so now we’re proceeding with a new round of trials.

Income concentration rises Bloomberg News WASHINGTON — The top 0.01 percent of Americans — fewer than 14,000 households — received 5.6 percent of adjusted gross income in 2012, according to data released Wednesday by the IRS. That was the biggest share of income concentrated at the very top of the distribution scale since 2007. Those in that group had a minimum income of $12.1 million.

An even more exclusive group — the top 0.001 percent — also had its best year since 2007. Their average tax rate was 17.6 percent, which is lower than the average rate for the top 10 percent of the U.S. population.

That year — 2012 — was unusual for high earners, because it was the end of the 15 percent top rate on capital gains and dividends. The increase to

23.8 percent on Jan. 1, 2013, prompted many high earners to sell their appreciated assets before the deadline and take advantage of lower rates.

The Internal Revenue Service report also shows how the U.S. tax system remains broadly progressive — meaning those with higher incomes pay higher tax rates. The top 3 percent of households, who received 30.9 percent of adjusted gross income, paid more than half of individual income taxes. And that was before tax increases for top earners took effect in 2013.

Payroll taxes and state taxes are typically regressive and counteract the federal income tax.

The IRS data provide fodder for the 2016 presidential campaign, with candidates from both parties searching for policies that would reduce income inequality.

Automakers ahead of schedule for 2020 fuel economy targets Los Angeles Times The auto industry is making significant strides toward increasing fuel efficiency and is ahead of schedule in meeting strict federal fuel economy goals, according to a new analysis by the Union of Concerned Scientists.

Already, 10 percent of the new passenger cars and trucks on the market meet their federal targets for 2020 and the industry still has much room to apply state-of-the-art fuel efficiency technology to the remaining fleet, UCS said.

“The efficiency and emissions standards are working — all you have

can be held accountable.”

There is deep opposition from the Republican-led Congress and from farmers and other landowners concerned that every stream, ditch and puddle on their private land could now be subject to federal oversight.

The House voted to block the regulations earlier this month, and a Senate panel is planning to consider a similar bill this summer.

House Speaker Boehner called the rules “a raw and tyrannical power grab.”

EPA’s McCarthy has acknowledged the proposed regulations last year were confusing, and she said the final rules were written to be clearer.

She said the regulations don’t create any new permitting requirements for agriculture and even add new exemptions for artificial lakes and ponds and

to do is look at cars and trucks that are on the road,” said Dave Cooke, vehicles analyst at UCS. “Automakers are meeting the challenge of making cleaner cars, and Americans are buying those cars.”

Automakers must produce fleets that have a so-called Corporate Average Fuel Economy of about 42 miles per gallon by 2020 and 54.5 mpg by 2025. But those numbers are compiled by mandated tests that overstate real life fuel economy and the window stickers placed on new cars.

The 2020 target is closer to 32 mpg and the 2025 is

about 37 mpg, Cooke said.

Vehicles that already meet or exceed those numbers include variants of nearly 100 different models, including some top sellers.

The group includes Ford’s hulking F-150 pickup truck when equipped with a 2.7 liter, turbocharged V-6 engine.

The “EcoDiesel” version of the Ram 1500 pickup truck also meets the 2020 fuel standard. Other versions of top sellers meeting the standard include the four-wheel-drive Honda CR-V, the Toyota Corolla LE ECO, the Honda Civic HF and Ford’s Fusion Hybrid and Fusion Energi plug-in hybrid.

water-filled depressions from construction, among other features.

These efforts were “to make clear our goal is to stay out of agriculture’s way,” McCarthy and Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works Jo-Ellen Darcy said in a blog on the EPA website.

The American Farm Bureau Federation has led opposition to the rules, saying they could make business more difficult for farmers. The group said Wednesday that it would wait to review the final rules before responding.

The agriculture industry has been particularly concerned about the regulation of drainage ditches on farmland. The EPA and Army Corps said the only ditches that would be covered under the rule are those that look, act and function like tributaries and carry pollution downstream.

Another farm group, the National Farmers Union, said it still has some

concerns about the impact on farmers but is pleased with the increased clarity on ditches, “removing a gray area that has caused farmers and ranchers an incredible amount of concern.”

Since the rules were originally proposed last year, the EPA has been working to clear up some misconceptions, putting to rest rumors that puddles in your backyard would be regulated, for example.

Farming practices currently exempted from the Clean Water Act — plowing, seeding and the movement of livestock, among other things — will continue to be exempted.

Environmentalists praised the rules, saying many of the nation’s waters would regain federal protections that had been in doubt since the Supreme Court rulings.

Margie Alt, executive director with Environment America, called the rules “the biggest victory for clean water in a decade.”

Tiny beads a persistent threat serving as Trojan horses, carrying chemicals into the fish and other marine life that consume them and moving them on up the food chain.

Some state legislatures have addressed microbeads. A bill in Washington’s Legislature was reintroduced at the start of the first special session but has not seen further action.

The bill, House Bill 1378, would have barred the products’ manufacture by 2018 and the sale of products containing them by 2020. California, as reported by the New York Times, passed legislation earlier this month that bans microbeads in products, joining six other states that have restricted their use.

Legislation also has been proposed in Congress, but laws at the state level are likely to have more immediate impact, assuming enough join in, as

companies can’t usually afford to make two lines of the same product for different markets.

But consumers themselves might prove to be an even more influential force than legislatures. Corporations, even on the microbead issue, have shown themselves willing to make changes, if grudgingly so.

Proctor & Gamble, maker of Crest toothpastes, maintained last September that microbeads were safe and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, but announced it had begun phasing out use of the microbeads in Crest products, a process that it will complete by March 2016. The microbeads in toothpaste serve only as a cosmetic marketing tool, offering no value in cleaning teeth.

And some dentists had begun raising concerns that the tiny

beads were becoming embedded in patients’ gums and potentially could have allowed a buildup of bacteria.

Proctor & Gamble, however, didn’t make the same decision for some of its Olay products that use the polyethylene beads. The microbeads also are prevalent in many products sold by Johnson & Johnson.

Consumers have the clout to ask companies to remove microbeads and replace them with ingredients that do break down in the environment and are just as effective as exfoliants, including ground-up nut shells, rice, stone-fruit pits and bamboo.

We pump enough plastics and chemicals into our environment without adding microbeads to that mix, especially when alternatives are available.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■CRIMINALS

Social services another tool Lately, The Herald has been reporting on local police agencies pairing up with social service organizations to get people in need help, whether it be housing, kicking drug abuse or getting help with mental illness (May 22, “Police, social services team up in new effort to help the homeless” and November 16, 2014 “Project 99: Problems along road are more than police alone can handle.”)

Most of these people are potential offenders, if not current offenders, for many crimes. In the past, police would simply take them to jail if they caught them committing a crime. More and more police commanders apparently are concluding that throwing someone in jail does not solve the problem of crime. Most offenders do get out of jail, and many will reoffend. So crime returns to society. It becomes the proverbial “revolving door.”

The new emphasis is to try to get potential offenders services that takes them off of drugs or provides mental illness treatment. The goal is still to reduce crime. The strategy has changed to provide social services to those who can be helped. For those who cannot be helped, or who choose not to be helped, sanctions, including jail time, remain a tool.

This new strategy will not be perfect. Much will be learned as police and social workers go down this path. But it adds a whole new set of tools to our ultimate goal of reducing crime and making our society safer for our families.

In contempt, they still get a raise Teachers are givers. We reach into our pockets to give additional school supplies that aren’t in the budget. We give our time beyond the school day to plan lessons and provide students with feedback.

We try to keep joy in learning despite the added demands of teacher evaluation, standardized testing and overcrowded classrooms. We are asked by the Legislature each year to do more with less.

And though the Supreme Court ruling included teacher pay as an essential component of adequate funding, lawmakers make no effort to bring teacher salaries equal to what we have lost to inflation over the last six years.

Yet lawmakers are poised to gain an 11 percent increase in their salaries. So as a last resort, because teachers are kind, giving people, we are forced to get the Legislature’s attention by walking out. It is never our first choice. It makes us uncomfortable too. We just want to teach. But right now lawmakers are making that impossible. We are not walking out to hurt kids. It is lawmakers’ arrogant refusal to uphold the state Constitution that hurts kids.

Cheap shot taken at Sen. Rubio Your Tuesday editorial regarding the 2014 Human Rights Report takes a cheap shot at Sen. Marco Rubio. You state that Mr. Rubio “keeps going on an on about the wrongness of the Obama administration’s restoration of ties with Cuba,” and that to be consistent, Rubio should also say something about our ties with Russia given his previously stated concerns regarding human rights violations in Cuba.

The placement of Mr. Rubio’s name under the bold headline “Rights abuses hit a new low,” seems to imply that he bears some responsibility or acquiescence for the human rights violations occurring in Russia. Really? The Obama administration and Secretary of State Hilary Clinton are the architects of our current policies and ties with Russia. How did the “Reset Button” work out for LGBT rights, Ukraine and Crimea?

How did accepting millions from Putin for the Clinton Foundation work out for the cancer patients who are being denied pain medication? You are right, Mr. Rubio should comment on Russia’s human rights violations and you should print them. Along with Mr. Rubio’s comments on the Human Rights Report, I would like to see you print Mrs. Clinton’s thoughts and her response to the questions posed above.

IN OUR VIEW | Microbeads in grooming products

Most of us give little thought to what we wash down the drain each morning after scrubbing our faces and brushing our teeth, but some of it — specifically tiny bits of plastic called microbeads — hangs out in streams, lakes and seas and finds its way into the food chain.

Microbeads have been used in facial scrubs, hand soaps, toothpaste and other personal grooming products, providing more marketing value than actual cleansing ability. But as small and innocuous as they look coming out of a tube of facial scrub, the microbeads don’t biodegrade and are causing damage. Scientists studying the Great Lakes and ocean environments for several years have expressed concern that the polyethylene beads are damaging to the fish that eat them and also are

Pot shops won’t hurt churches Regarding the letter, “Keep pot shops away from churches,” where author invites his readers, ”what say you.” Well, here’s what I say: I don’t have a problem with the city of Everett Planning Commission allowing legal “pot shops” next to churches. Also, believe me, I-502 is not flawed.

It has been scrutinized by lawyers inside and out. What is now the legal standard is what the voters voted in favor of.

By the way, although I am not the most religious person in the world, but last I checked, the Bible said we are all God’s children ... that would include those who legally own and run “pot shops.” You could, for instance, invite them to church. You just never know.

Worry not over state workers Regarding the guest commentary by Mike Sells, “Senate should do right by state workers”: The concern over the state employees pay rings hollow. They have a benefit package that is not seen by many these days. And just try to fire one of them for mis-, non- or malfeasance, impossible!

It’s the typical Democrat approach: bigger government.

The state is currently enjoying an increase in revenue. However, it’s never enough.

How can GOP debates be fair to a field of 18?

B

ecause so many Republicans want to be president — or at least pretend they do — debate organizers have decided to eliminate the least popular from the stage based on how they rank in the latest national polls.

Fox News, which is hosting the first televised debate Aug. 6, and CNN, host of the second on Sept. 16, have come up with a way to limit the field.

Basically, it’s KATHLEEN PARKER the popularity contest presidential elections have always been, only this time there’s no attempt to masquerade it as something loftier.

Fox will limit the number of contestants to the top 10. Everybody else may as well head to their favorite resort, work on their backstroke, and embrace the not-unpleasant reality that someone else is going to look 20 years older in four more years.

At least CNN will allow the “losers” — those polling outside the top 10 — to debate separately in a second part. The benchwarmers get to play each other, in other words. This may sound dull, but when you’re not winning, you may as well be honest. Who knows what nuggets might tumble from the tongues of the rejected and the desperate?

But seriously. Imagine running for president of the United States, which requires a full tank of narcissistic propulsion and near-pathological ambition — and knowing at the starting gate that not only are you not going to be president but you’re not even going to be allowed to play with the big dogs. What becomes of the indignant rage born of such insult? How does one channel such humiliation and injury?

Good morning. Is Roger Ailes in, please?

Understandably, the field has to be winnowed somehow. It would be challenging to fit 18 people on a stage, the effect of which would be to make everyone look ridiculous. Not all candidates are equal, we needn’t be reminded, and giving them equal space to insult and denigrate the likely nominee is so much blood for a mere moment of glory.

Leaving the party’s candidate wounded and financially bruised, as Republican also-rans did to Mitt Romney in 2012, helped no one so much as Barack Obama by providing him all the opposition research he needed.

Still, the approach to eliminating weaker candidates feels a bit un-American, doesn’t it? Anyone can grow up to become president, we say; P.S. You just can’t debate your opponents. Everyone has a voice in the public debate we call politics, we aver. That is, except for a few of you who aren’t yet on people’s radar. But you can talk to each other!

This sidelining of certain candidates, even if practical, seems bad for business and especially for leadership, which sometimes reveals itself during debates. Many candidates soar or perish under the hot lights. And the stigma of being designated an “also-ran” before the race even begins likely would crush anyone’s chances of being recognized later as a hidden jewel.

Relegating the unpopular to the margins is also tricky for Republicans when one of them is likely to be the only Republican woman running — Carly Fiorina.

But based on the average of polls found today on RealClearPolitics — the Bible Belt for the religiously political — it looks as though you may not hear from South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Ohio Gov. John Kasich or former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum during the first debate.

But be brave: Donald Trump — and his hair — will surely make it in.

Which is to say, we may as well call it a day. Rather than waste time and money polling Iowans and talking grits ‘n’ gravy with South Carolinians, why not just select our senior superlatives the way we did in high school? Who is something-est — the tallest, handsomest, smartest, wittiest, friendliest, cutest, nicest, toughest, most likely to succeed and, not least, most likely to attract about 40 percent of the Hispanic vote?

Oh, and who can beat Hillary Clinton?

Lest I be a spoiler, I’ll let you fill in the blanks. I’d be willing to bet that the superlatives selected will be the 10 contestants — I mean, candidates — appearing on the big stage come August. Hints: Jeb Bush is 6-feet-3; Marco Rubio and Bush speak Spanish fluently; Ted Cruz speaks Spanglish; and Mike Huckabee is pretty funny.

Politics isn’t really science after all, but is a schoolyard brawl — or a survivor reality game, depending on one’s preference — where human nature calls the shots.

Prosecutors: Auditor used stolen money

By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — Federal prosecutors say indicted Washington state Auditor Troy Kelley paid more than $900,000 in stolen money to the high-priced law firm representing him, and they want a judge to look into whether that creates a conflict of interest for his attorney.

In a motion filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court, prosecutors asked Judge Ronald Leighton to inquire into whether attorney Mark Bartlett has a conflict of interest in representing Kelley.

Bartlett, a former senior federal prosecutor in Seattle who is now with the firm of Davis Wright Tremaine, declined to comment Tuesday night.

Kelley is on a leave of absence as he fights a criminal indictment alleging he stole money from clients of his former business, a real estate services firm, and

evaded taxes.

The U.S. attorney’s office in

Seattle says that in March, after Kelley was told he was likely to be

indicted, he transferred $447,000 to the IRS and $908,000 to Davis Wright Tremaine for use as a retainer. Prosecutors allege the money came from an account in which Kelley pooled money he was supposed to refund to clients.

Under an agreement with prosecutors, Davis Wright Tremaine is not spending the contested money. But prosecutors say it could nevertheless create a conflict of interest if they have to call Bartlett or other lawyers at his firm as witnesses to confirm whether the money was spent for Kelley’s benefit, or if Bartlett has to cross-examine lawyers at his firm.

And if Kelley’s transfer of the money to the law firm itself constitutes evidence of a crime, he could claim in court that he did it on the advice of counsel. In that case, Bartlett might also have a conflict, the government said.

“The payments to Davis Wright Tremaine and to the United

States government constitute evidence that — contrary to his statements in tax returns and to IRS special agents — Kelley in fact possessed and controlled the money in the Vanguard account, rather than holding it in impound for the benefit of third parties,” prosecutors wrote.

“If Kelley in fact believed that the money appropriately should be held in an impound account ... Kelley could not plausibly have decided in March 2015 that he was simply entitled to convert the money to his own benefit,” they wrote.

Prosecutors said they have similar conflict-of-interest concerns about Rob McCallum, a criminal tax lawyer who works at the firm of LeSourd & Patten, who has worked with Bartlett on Kelley’s case.

Their motion focused on Bartlett because McCallum is now advising Kelley only informally, they said.

Justice Department to help Pasco police

On strike in Spokane

Associated Press

DAN PELLE / THE SPOKESMAN-REVIEW

Finch Elementary School teachers (from left) Marcie Zambryski, Jolene Knudsen, Paulla Lally and Courtney Michelson wave to motorists during Spokane Public School’s one-day strike Wednesday. About 3,000 teachers in the Spokane area are held a one-day strike to protest the Legislature’s failure to increase school funding. Wednesday’s strike affected nearly 30,000 students in the Spokane and East Valley school districts.

PASCO — The U.S. Office of Community Oriented Policing Services will offer technical assistance and training to the Pasco Police Department after officers shot and killed an unarmed Hispanic man, the agency said Wednesday.

The decision follows a request from U.S. Attorney Michael C. Ormsby and Pasco Police Chief Robert Metzger.

COPS, an arm of the Department of Justice, said the decision was prompted by the Feb. 10 shooting of Antonio ZambranoMontes, 35, which led to weeks of protests in the city.

The COPS office will work with Pasco officers over the next year, providing training in community policing and problem-solving, fair and impartial policing, and procedural justice.

The office has recently worked with police in cities such as Ferguson, Missouri; Detroit; Seattle; New Orleans; and San Diego.

Ronald Davis, director of COPS, said a lack of trust between a community and the police is at

the core of much tension in the United States.

“The recent tragic shooting of Antonio Zambrano-Montes in Pasco has brought that fact to light,” Davis said. “It is absolutely critical that the police department do all it can to strengthen police and community relations and rebuild the community’s trust.”

Zambrano-Montes was fired upon 17 times by Pasco police officers Ryan Flanagan, Adam Wright and Adrian Alaniz after he reportedly threw at least one rock at them. The orchard worker was not carrying a gun or knife. A rock was found near his body, which was struck by at least five bullets.

The officers have been placed on leave pending the outcome of an investigation. Upcoming is a coroner’s inquest that will allow a jury of six civilians to determine the cause and manner of Zambrano-Montes’ death.

The jury also will decide if the shooting was justifiable. Franklin County Prosecutor Shawn Sant ultimately will decide whether criminal charges should be filed against the officers.

Two-year jail term in Portland parking bribery case

By Tim Fought Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — A federal judge has sentenced a former Portland city official to two years in prison for taking bribes to help a Florida company land a parking meter contract.

The sentence handed down Wednesday is likely to mean that Ellis McCoy, 64, will serve time at the medium-security federal prison in Sheridan, Oregon, or perhaps its minimum-security prison camp.

His attorney argued for probation, saying McCoy was

humiliated, has turned his life around and cooperated early on with investigators. McCoy has a kidney disease that will be difficult for prison officials to handle, his attorney said.

Prosecutors recommended a sentence of two years, six months.

Judge Marco Hernandez said the damage to public confidence in government integrity was too great to put McCoy on probation, and he was having none of the defense’s argument that McCoy let his ego and ambition get out of hand.

“From where I sit, it sounds more like greed,” Hernandez said.

The scheme came to light in 2011, when FBI agents raided McCoy’s city and home offices.

Investigators said that during 10 years, McCoy took $200,000 in cash and travel favors from two executives: one still unnamed, and George Levey, who has pleaded guilty and faces sentencing in August.

A prosecution document refers to an unnamed person who participated in the bribery scheme as “Executive (hash)2.”

It describes the person as a senior executive doing business with the city on its parking meter project, but not part of Levey’s

Florida company.

Levey’s company dates to 2003 in Clearwater, the U.S. affiliate of a Swedish company, Cale, the government document states.

City officials and investigators say Portland got a good deal on a meter system that saves money, something the defense made a point of Wednesday.

“The city of Portland did not purchase a lemon,” defense attorney Thomas Price said.

McCoy apologized and said he rationalized the bribery by saying he’d pressed for a good project. If not for the bribery part, he said, the meter project would have

been hailed as a success.

The city is still doing business with Cale.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Seth Uram said Portland got a good price because Levey viewed the contract as a loss leader that would allow him to point to Portland as an early adopter of “smart meters.” The devices, one to a block, replace meters for individual parking spots.

They take credit cards — coins, too — and spit out stickers that drivers put on the windows of their parked vehicles to show when the parking privilege expires.

Oregon family opens oasis for Watchable Wildlife

By Mark Freeman Mail Tribune

WHITE CITY, Ore. — Tucked away in a corner of the Mace family’s homesteaded property, amid the gravel pits and cattle pastures, lies a special sliver of land where the hardscrabble Agate Desert surrenders to the Rogue River.

Massive cottonwoods and Oregon ash rise along the river’s edge to form a private oasis where Linda Marr found solitude and solace as a young Mace girl and would later take her children for picnics.

“This is my favorite part of the

whole property,” Marr says. “It’s where I came to escape.”

This area and the rest of the Bob and Phyllis Mace family’s 165 acres will in time become a very public place for Southern Oregonians to enjoy the outdoors and interact with wildlife in a project that will pay homage to the visions of the Mace family patriarch.

The Mace Family Watchable Wildlife Area over time will become the legacy of Bob Mace, Marr’s father, who was the former Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife leader who coined the phrase Watchable Wildlife to

give just credence to critters that crawl, bound or fly.

Marr’s oasis will become a day-use area for picnickers, birders, anglers and others escaping regular life along the Rogue Valley floor. The nearby Whetstone Creek will be restored as a habitat anchor for the wildlife species Mace championed.

Along with river frontage nearly the length of six football fields, perhaps its biggest draw will be a 125-acre lake carved into the property’s vast commercial gravel expanses, providing fishing and other water recreation opportunities currently not offered along

the valley floor.

“Dad was a visionary, and he was always looking to the future so future generations can get off the couch and get into nature,” Marr says. “This is something he would be very proud of.”

Now owned by a private trust, the land eventually will be deeded to the ODFW and managed as an extension of the agency’s Denman Wildlife Area under a unique agreement that could take decades to play out.

“We’re talking about your grandkids here,” says Russ Stauff, the ODFW’s Rogue Watershed manager and a player in the

area’s property development. “It could be 20 to 30 years out before we realize it. When it does, it has the potential to be OFDW’s greatest site and rival anything state parks has, frankly.”

“This is all about making Bob and Phyllis’ vision happen, and it’s a killer one,” he says.

Already, the Watchable Wildlife Area is taking shape.

Blackberry bushes that had a near-death grip on Marr’s favorite riparian area have been replaced by native plants.

And a team of local birders also has begun creating baseline data for the aerial fauna of the land.

NOTICE OF OBJECTION OPPORTUNITY Mt. Baker Geothermal Consent to Lease Project USDA Forest Service Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest Whatcom and Skagit Counties, WA The Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest has completed the Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Mt. Baker Geothermal Consent to Lease Project. The project is now subject to a 45-day objection period prior to final decision. The Forest Service has prepared a draft Decision Notice-Finding of No Significant Impact (DN-FONSI) for review. It describes the proposed decision to select Alternative 2, Proposed Action - Consent to Lease with Stipulations, and provides rationale for it. The Forest Supervisor is the Responsible Official for this project. Both documents can be viewed on the Forest’s Projects website at: http://www.fs.usda.gov/projects/mbs/landmanagement/projects, under the heading Mt. Baker Ranger District Geothermal Consent to Lease Project. The Forest’s website is the primary source of information about the project. The EA may be obtained on CD or other format upon request. The EA is also available for review at the Forest Supervisor’s Office, 2930 Wetmore Ave., Suite 3A, Everett, and the Mt. Baker Ranger District (MBRD) office, 810 SR 20, Sedro-Woolley, WA, from 8:00 am - 4:30 pm Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. The Selected Alternative (Alternative 2 Proposed Action, Consent to Lease with Stipulations) would consent to the Bureau of Land Management to lease industrynominated and FS-proposed lands by competitive bid for potential subsequent geother mal resource development, including stipulations for the protection of surface resources. The project is located on portions of National Forest System lands surrounding Mt. Baker, approximately 23 miles east of Bellingham, and 16 miles nor theast of Sedro-Woolley, in Whatcom and Skagit Counties, WA, in T 36 N, R 7E and 8E; T 37 N, R 6E, 7E, 8E, and 9E; T 38 N, R 6E, 7E, 8E, 9E, and 10E; and T 39 N, R 6E, 7E, 8E, and 9E, W.M. A total of approximately 81,820 acres would be included in the consent to lease decision. The project is subject to pre-decisional administrative review under 36 CFR 218 subpart B (objection process). During the objection period, only those individuals or organizations that submitted specific written comments during a designated opportunity for public participation on this project may file an objection (36 CFR 218.5). Objections must meet the requirements of 36 CFR 218.8(d). Incorporation of documents by reference is permitted only as provided at 36 CFR 218.8(b). Objections may be mailed to: Regional Forester, Objection Reviewing Officer, Pacific Northwest Region, 1220 SW Third Avenue, P. O. Box 3623, Portland, OR 97204. Objections may be faxed to (503) 808-2339, sent electronically to: objectionspnw-regional-office@fs.fed.us, or hand delivered to the above address 7:45 am to 4:30 pm, Mon-Fri except holidays. Objections including attachments must be postmarked within 45 days of publication of this legal notice in the Everett Herald. That publication date is the exclusive means for calculating the time to file an objection. Those wishing to file an objection should not rely upon dates or timeframes provided by any other source. Electronic objections must be submitted in .doc, .rtf, .txt, or .pdf format, or as an e-mail message. E-mails in other formats or containing viruses cannot be accepted. E-mailed objections should include the project name in the subject line. For electronically mailed objections, the sender should nor mally receive an automated electronic confirmation of receipt. However, whether or not acknowledgement is received, it is the responsibility of the individual or organization to ensure their objection is received in a timely manner (36 CFR 218.9). Objections must be based on previously submitted, timely specific written comments regarding the proposed project and attributed to the objector, unless the issue is based on new information that arose after the opportunities for comment. The burden is on the objector to demonstrate compliance with this requirement. An objection must include: the objectors name and address with a telephone number, if available; a signature or other verification of authorship; the name of the proposed project, the name and title of the responsible official and the name of the national forest or ranger district on which the proposed project will be implemented; a description of the aspects of the proposed project addressed by the objection, including specific issues related to the proposed project; if applicable, how the objector believes the environmental analysis or draft decision specifically violates law, regulation, or policy; suggested remedies that would resolve the objection; supporting reasons for the reviewing officer to consider; and a statement that demonstrates the connection between prior specific written comments on the proposed project and the content of the objection, unless the objection concerns an issue that arose after the designated opportunities for comment.

Objections received, including names and addresses of those who comment, will be part of the Project Record and available for public review. For further information, contact the project team leader, Eric Ozog, at (360) 691-4396, or email eozog@fs.fed.us.

Jackson Board Room, 8th Floor, Robert J. Drewel Building, 3000 Rockefeller, Everett, Washington to consider the Planning Commission recommendations and proposed Ordinance No. 14-137, an ordinance titled: AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO THE AMENDMENT OF THE TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT AS PART OF THE MANDATORY UPDATE OF THE SNOHOMISH COUNTY GROWTH MANAGEMENT ACT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN PURSUANT TO RCW 36.70A.070 and 36.70A.130; AMENDING THE STANDARDS FOR EVALUATING LEVEL OF SERVICE ON COUNTY ARTERIALS; AND PRESENTING A PLAN FOR TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES AND SERVICES THROUGH THE YEAR 2035. At the hearing, the council may also consider alternatives/amendments to the proposed ordinance.

Background: This ordinance proposes to amend the Transportation Element (TE) of the Snohomish County GMA Comprehensive Plan (GMACP) as part of a periodic update of the GMACP mandated by RCW 36.70A.130, which must be completed by June 30, 2015. Under RCW 36.70A.070, the TE is a mandatory element of the GMACP. The proposed ordinance includes amendments that would revise the level of service standard for county arterial roadways and present a plan for transportation facilities and services through the year 2035.

A summary of the proposed ordinance is as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 14-137 Amendments are listed following the sections of the proposed ordinance: Sections 1-3. Adopt recitals, findings, and conclusions, and states the County Council bases its findings and conclusions on the entire record of the Planning Commission and the County Council, including all testimony and exhibits Section 4. Amends the TE, as indicated by Exhibit A, including: Making housekeeping changes to: address inadvertent errors, omissions and inconsistencies; delete outdated or inaccurate information; revise text to ensure internal consistency; provide consistency in terminology between the TE and other GMACP documents; update information to reflect the 2035 plan horizon; improve readability of the chapters; provide consistency with the GMA; remove language related to facilities no longer under county jurisdiction or projects that have been completed; and clarify intent and support policies in other GMACP chapters.

Other amendments include: 1. Proposed amendments to Chapter I of the TE update the county’s inventory of roadways, pedestrian facilities, bicycle facilities, transit routes and intercity bus service, passenger and freight rail, ferries, airports, and marine port facilities.

2. Proposed amendments to Chapter I and Chapter II of the TE incorporate the 2035 growth projections provided by the Washington State Office of Financial Management (OFM) and are consistent with the growth targets and FLUM adopted by the County Council as part of this 2015 GMACP update.

3. Proposed amendments to Chapter II of the TE update the summary of travel statistics from the travel demand model to reflect the 2035 horizon year and population, employment, and housing changes.

4. Proposed amendments to Chapter II of the TE update the level of service (LOS) standards for state-owned transportation facilities recognizing a distinction between Highways of Statewide Significance (HSS) and Regionally Significant State Highways (Non-HSS).

5. Proposed amendments to Chapter II of the TE add LOS guidelines for Community Transit’s (CT) local transit routes ensuring consistency with CT’s Long-Range Transit Plan.

6. Proposed amendments to Chapter III of the TE adjusts the county transportation LOS standard for qualifying multimodal arterials allowing a 5 mph reduction to the minimum peak hour travel speed on multimodal arterials. The proposed amendments include provisions for increased transportation demand mitigation measures for develop-ments impacting multimodal arterials. The amendments are necessary for consistency with changes in regional policy to adopt LOS standards and concurrency management systems that consider the movement of people not just vehicles and to address nonmotorized and other multimodal types of transportation both in assessment and mitigation.

7. Proposed amendments to Chapter III of the TE amend the county transportation LOS standard to establish criteria for determining multimodal arterials using metrics (transit service operating at 15 minute headways or better during the peak period; a continuous bicycle facility meeting county standards; a continuous pedestrian facility meeting county standards; and a gross density of 20 persons and/or employees per acre within 1/4 mile of transit facilities) to identify arterials with conditions conducive to transit and nonmotorized modes of travel.

8. Proposed amendments to Chapter III of the TE describe the application of criteria for rural arterials with urban traffic to more accurately describe how the criteria are applied.

9. Proposed amendments to Chapter III of the TE identify Marine Dr. NE from I-5 to 64th St. SW, 27th Ave. NE from Marine Dr. NE to the end of the county portion of the road, 84th St. NE from SR 9 to SR 92; Machias Rd. from 12th St NE to Machias Cutoff, and Bunk Foss/Richey Rd. from S Machias Rd. to 99 Ave SE as rural arterials with urban traffic and remove Bickford Ave. from the SR 2 ramps to the City of Snohomish’s UGA line from the list of rural arterial with urban traffic.

17. Proposed amendments to Chapter IV of the TE revise the description, list, and estimated cost of county arterial improvements necessary to serve the forecasted travel demand of the Land Use Element and the FLUM. The revision deletes the previous categorization of county arterial improvements (Critical Arterial System Improvements (CASI), Arterial Level of Service Improvements (ALOSI), and Arterial System Enhancements (ASE)), and replaces it with project categories including widening of existing arterial roads, new arterial road alignments, stand-alone intersection improvements, and stand-alone pedestrian facility improvements. The revised list of county arterial improvements uses year of expenditure costs in place of the previous 2005 adjusted costs and reflects how the Snohomish County Department of Public Works will program arterial improvements over the 20-year planning horizon.

18. Proposed amendments to Chapter IV and Appendix B of the TE revise the list of state highway improvements needed to meet current and future demand on the state highway system and provide support for the county roadway network.

The revised list was developed in consultation with WSDOT and is consistent with the project list in the constrained portion of Puget Sound Regional Council’s (PSRC) Transportation 2040.

19. Proposed amendments to Chapter IV and Appendix C of the TE revise the list of city street improvements needed to meet current and future transportation demand on the city street network and provide support for the county roadway network and land use plan. The list of city projects was developed using the most current available transportation improvement program (TIP) and long range transportation plans for each jurisdiction.

20. Proposed amendments to Chapter IV of the TE revise the supportive public transportation services and planned improvements to update planned public transportation services based on information contained in the transit development plans for relevant transit agencies.

21. Proposed amendments to Chapter IV of the TE revise the supportive public transportation services and planned improvements including map and text changes discussing future high-capacity transit (HCT) in Snohomish County. The revisions discuss the planned light rail expansion to Lynnwood consistent with Sound Transit 2: The Regional Transit System Plan for Central Puget Sound, the Sound Transit Regional Transit Long-Range Plan, and PSRC’s Transportation 2040. The revisions discuss the possible routes of future light rail to Everett consistent with Sound Transit Regional Transit Long-Range Plan, PSRC’s Transportation 2040, and Sound Transit’s High Capacity Transit Corridor Study: Lynnwood to Everett. The revisions discuss possible future Swift bus rapid transit routes consistent with CT’s Long-Range Transit Plan.

22. Adding Figure 6 to the TE which consolidates the information from and replaces previous Map 5: Recommended Road and Street Improvements, TSA “C”; Map 6: Recommended Road and Street Improvements, TSA “D”; Map 7: Recommended Road and Street Improvements TSA “D” (detail); Map 8: Recommended Road and Street Improvements, TSA “E”; and Map 9: Recommended Road and Street Improvements, TSA “F”. These changes were made to show the updated arterial improvement project list needed to support the Land Use Element to 2035.

23. Adding Figure 7 to the TE which consolidates the information from and replaces previous Map 3: Recommended Road and Street Improvements TSA “A” and Map 4: Recommended Road and Street Improvements, TSA “B”.

These changes were made to show the updated arterial improvement project list needed to support the Land Use Element to 2035.

24. Proposed amendments to Chapter V of the TE revise the financial strategy to include expenditures based on the revised project list and the 20-year revenue forecast to reflect the new plan horizon year and changed revenue assumptions, and the analysis of revenue available for capital improvements.

25. Proposed amendments to Chapter V of the TE revise the summary comparison of expenditures versus available revenue and the analysis of additional revenue sources that could be used to reduce possible future deficits in funding for capital transportation expenditures.

26. The proposed amendments to the TE Appendices: a. Revises Appendix A (Glossary of Acronyms and Definitions) to delete acronyms no longer used in the document and to add new acronyms.

1VCMJD /PUJDFT b. Deletes the previously adopted Appendix B (Summary of Costs for County Road Projects if Built to Standards) and replaces it with a new Appendix B (Summary of State Projects within Snohomish County). Much of the information found in the previously adopted Appendix B is no longer necessary because it was specific to the CASI, ALOSI, and ASE categories, which are proposed to be replaced in this update of the TE. The state project information in the new Appendix B has been moved from Chapter IV for improved readability. c. Deletes the previously adopted Appendix C (Summary of Costs for County Road Projects Alternate Design of Arterial Level of Service Improvements) and replaces it with a new Appendix C (Supportive City Street Improvements). The information found in the previously adopted Appendix C pertained to the costing the ALOSI category of roadway projects. The local project information contained in the new Appendix C has been moved from Chapter IV for improved readability. d. Amends Appendix D (Transportation Mitigation Fees) to reflect that some information on future impact fee rates cannot be known until a new list of arterial improvement projects and their updated costs have been determined, new TSA boundaries have been established, and a new estimate of trips for each TSA have been calculated. This information will be become available when the land use plan and the TE have been adopted.

Section 5. Amends the Arterial Circulation Map to update the arterial roadway system necessary to serve the Land Use Element and FLUM. Section 6. Amends the Bicycle Facility System Map to identify proposed bikeways and update the information on completed bikeways.

Amendment 6. Make minor corrections and clarifications.

Amendment 20. Provide for the land use designation of Public/Institutional Use to be changed to a land use designation corresponding to the underlying zoning as a technical correction when the land is surplused by a school district, provided the land was in the UGA when the P/IU designation was applied.

Amendment 23. Add a policy that states that new major rural arterials and capacity expansions for major rural arterials should be avoided, but where it is necessary, the county should take measures to prevent any unplanned growth that might be caused by these roadway improvements. This amendment provides additional consistency with multicounty planning policies.

Amendment 24. Clarify the county commitment to work with transit and social service agencies, cities, and WSDOT to provide mobility options for those populations where non-driving options are necessary for mobility. This amendment provides additional consistency with multicounty planning policies.

Amendment 25. Amend the TDR receiving areas policy so that receiving areas are not created by area-wide rezones to single family zones done during 2015 or by capacity-neutral UGA adjustments done at any time.

Amendment 26. Amend the comprehensive plan maps to reflect the new city boundaries for the City of Brier due to the North Castle Way Annexation that was finalized on May 6, 2015.

Amendment 27. Increase the additional number of single family units allowed per TDR credit from four to five and create a citizens advisory committee to recommend additional alternatives such as in-lieu fees and form-based zoning, along with a timeline.

Amendment 28. Amend the comprehensive plan maps to show the boundaries of Quil Ceda Village, a federally recognized municipality within the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

STATE SOFTBALL

Sisters key Seagulls’ run Erin and Megan Gordon have sights set on a 3A state title with 22-1 Everett

By David Krueger Herald Writer

EVERETT — As Megan Gordon rounded the bases after hitting the first home run of her career earlier this season, no one was happier for the Everett freshman than her Seagulls teammate and older sister, Erin Gordon.

But she still gave Megan a hard time.

“When Megan hit her first home run ... against Meadowdale, Erin hadn’t hit one yet. I think (Erin) called her a ‘stinker,’” Everett head coach Mike Millar said with a chuckle. “She was a little bitter that her sister got to one first. But then again, I know that she was extremely happy for her.”

Megan’s homer proved pivotal in a 4-3 extra-innings victory over Meadowdale as the two sisters continued to be a big part of the Seagulls’ success this season.

In her first year with the team, Megan is batting .463 with 25 RBI, nine doubles and two home runs.

Erin, a junior and an Everett captain, is close behind with a .407 average, 18 RBI, eight doubles and four triples.

Erin, Everett’s shortstop, and Megan (second base) anchor the middle of the infield for the Seagulls. The duo has helped Everett to a 22-1 record and spot in the 3A state tournament for the first time since 2012, when the Seagulls placed second.

Everett opens play in the tournament at noon Friday against Central Kitsap at the Regional Athletic Complex in Lacey.

“I’ve never, in my life, witnessed two sisters that treat each other as well as they do,” Millar said.

“They’re best friends and you don’t see that too often in siblings.

It’s just pretty moving to see how they are, on and off the field.”

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The Seattle Mariners’ Felix Hernandez and the Tampa Bay Rays’ Chris Archer. This figured to be a pitchers’ duel Wednesday afternoon at Tropicana Field, and the two aces sure didn’t disappoint.

Then enter Rays closer Brad Boxberger. And cue up Mariners designated hitter Nelson Cruz.

Boxberger replaced Archer to start the ninth inning, struck out two hitters, then walked two hitters...all as a prelude to Cruz crushing a fastball for a three-run homer into the Rays’ Touch Tank.

It was a 430-foot drive that ended in a splash. It was just the

And it was sufficient for Hernandez, who completed a four-hit shutout in the Mariners’ 3-0 win.

SEATTLE — How well are things going for the Seattle Sounders these days? Marco Pappa is scoring beautiful gamewinners with his bad foot.

Seattle’s talented, left-footed midfielder, who is normally one of the more one-footed players on the field, scored the game’s only goal Wednesday night with his right foot in a 1-0 victory over the Colorado Rapids, a result that gives the Sounders the best record in Major League Soccer at 7-3-2.

During a first half in which the Sounders completely dominated in terms of possession and chances, Pappa made the play that counted most, collecting a botched Colorado clearance on top of the box before bending a right-footed shot — “a worldclass goal,” Rapids coach Pablo Mastroeni called it — into the upper corner of the goal in the 15th minute.

Asked when he last hit a shot that well with his right foot,

Pappa smiled and said, “I don’t remember, because this might be my first time.”

Or as teammate Cristian Roldan put it, “I thought he could only stand on that right foot.”

And with that rare, right-footed strike from Pappa, Marco Pappa the Sounders not only have the best record in MLS and two point advantage over FC Dallas in the Western Conference standings, they also have now won five of their past seven with four of those games coming on the road. With 18 goals, the Sounders are tied for the most in MLS, and they’ve conceded nine goals, the fewest in the league. By just about any measure, last year’s Supporters’ Shield winners are the best team in the league just over a third of the way into this season.

107-pound halibut is a very large fish, and on many a Memorial Day weekend would have won the $5,000 first prize in the annual Port Angeles Halibut Derby. On the first day of the 2015 event last weekend, Josh Constant of Port Angeles topped the leader board with his 107.9-pound “barn door” and looked to be cruising to the winner’s circle.

But Sunday brought a huge flattie of 143.2 pounds to bump Constant into the second spot.

Phillip Flanders of Ocean View, Hawaii, walked away with the big bucks, while Constant settled for $2,500. Heidi Bernier of Bellevue took third and $1,500 at 74.3 pounds, and Mark Amoroso of Port Angeles took fourth and $1,200 at 72.8 pounds. The last fish on the board, in 30th place, weighed 42.6 pounds and paid $135 to Brook Boardman of Tacoma. Phillip Flanders’ fishing partner, Stratos Flanders, also from Hawaii, placed 11th, with a fish of 58.8 pounds and won $450.

Other long-distance participants included anglers from Reno, Nevada, and Riece, Minnesota.

The derby pulled 539 entries, which was down about 100 from last year, according to spokesman Norm Metzler, but there were a lot of fish caught.

“We had a bunch in the 25to 35-pound range,” Metzler said, “and I would estimate we weighed 65 or 70 fish total. They were all nice-size halibut and probably a record for the average

Marine Areas 1 (Ilwaco) and 2 (Westport) open for recreational salmon fishing Saturday through June 12, seven days per week, with a two-salmon daily limit. This early opener is basically for hatchery kings, since regulations require the release of wild chinook and all coho. The minimum size for chinook is 24 inches.

Starting June 13, rules change to allow not more than one chinook, wild or hatchery, and the release of wild coho.

Kelly Westrick at Westport Charters (800-562-0157) said bottomfish boats have been taking and releasing fair numbers of chinook while looking for black rockfish

weight on the board.”

While bait choice and location of fish caught are held close to the vest by many derby fishermen, rumor has it Flanders was using horse herring, Metzler said.

The more local halibut fishery on Admiralty and Mutiny bays has not been one of the better ones this year, but there’s still the chance to find a nice fish. You’ll have to hurry, though, since Saturday is the final day of the season.

Shrimp The third and last day of the recreational spot shrimp season in Marine Area 8 (areas 8-1 and 8-2) probably will be June 24 and will consist of just four hours, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. That’s “probably” because as of Wednesday morning the emergency regulation had not yet been formally released by the state Fish and Wildlife Department.

Shrimp guru Mark O’Toole, at the department’s La Conner office, said the May 2 and 13 openings in Area 8 resulted in a harvest of 15,100 pounds, leaving 3,900 pounds in the recreational quota.

“That’s not enough for another full day,” O’Toole said. “In 2013 we had 2,000 pounds remaining and had a four-hour opening in 8-1 only. That resulted in a catch of 1,900 pounds. So theoretically there

and lingcod. She also said the charter salmon fishery last year was “awesome. The best in many, many years, and we’re hoping this season will be a repeat.”

Could happen.

State Fish and Wildlife Department forecasts predict a return of about 255,000 hatchery chinook to the lower Columbia River. Those salmon, known as “tules,” are the backbone of the recreational ocean chinook fishery, and that return would be larger than last year’s.

It also would be the third highest since 1938 and larger than the fiveyear average.

— Wayne Kruse

should be enough available for a four-hour opening in both halves of Area 8.”

He said June 24 has a good shrimping tide, lingcod will be closed so the two fisheries will not conflict, and it gives shrimpers time to arrange an outing.

Marine Area 8-2 includes Port Susan, the south half of Saratoga Passage, and the Everett area south to the shipwreck. Marine Area 8-1 covers the north half of Saratoga Passage, and Skagit Bay north to Deception Pass.

Wenatchee springers It was a banner opening of the spring chinook season on the Wenatchee (May 23) and Icicle (May 20) rivers late last week, according to Rick Graybill at Hooked On Toys in Wenatchee.

“There was a pile of fish in the (Wenatchee) river,” Graybill said.

“Beautiful springers, averaging probably 12 or 13 pounds.”

Plunking is the local technique of choice, he said, using herring, tuna balls or eggs. Drifting eggs under a float is getting more popular, and some anglers bottom-bounce with the same techniques used by westside steelheaders. Boat and bank anglers are about equally split on the Wenatchee, Graybill said.

Last year’s salmon fishery on the Wenatchee was pretty much a washout, with the river running high from snow melt.

“This year’s a different story,”

Graybill said. “The normal flow this time of year is around 9,000 cubic feet per second, but as of early this week it was at 5,170 and dropping.

It’s fishing better every day.”

The salmon are scattered throughout the river, he said, and fresh fish are still coming over Rock Island Dam. “The Wenatchee should be good fishing for weeks yet,” he said.

Bass tournament The MarDon Open Bass Tournament went off without a hitch last weekend, according to Annie Meseberg at MarDon Resort on Potholes Reservoir in Grant County. Each of the 36 teams weighed fish on the first day, except for one boat with engine trouble, Meseberg said. Dana Steiner and Andy Smith took the early lead with an impressive day-one bag of 26.82 pounds — an average of better than 5 pounds per fish.

That same team went on to win the tournament with a two-day combined weight of 49.09 pounds (10 largemouth). Second place went to Paul Hall and Jarrid Turner, weighing 45.56 pounds in two days; and Moses Lake resident Aaron Echternkamp fished with his 14-year old son, Mason, and finished in third place at 42.38 pounds.

Participants boated a total of 335 bass, with a 3.2-pound average. All fish were returned to the water.

The catch-and-release tourney is a fund-raiser for the Central Washington Fish Advisory Committee, a non-profit group that, among other things, builds and installs fish habitat boxes for the Reservoir.

The winning team stayed in the sand dune area, but moved around and utilized different techniques, according to Meseberg. It was mostly sight fishing, using spinner baits, Senkos, topwater lures such as the ProPopper Frog, and some drop-shotting.

Meseberg also reports good smallmouth fishing in Lind Coulee and in the rocks around Goose Island; crappie to 12 and 14 inches in the dunes; and bluegill to a full pound and rainbows to 8 pounds off the resort dock.

Nearby Warden Lake is putting out trout for those fishing Power Rait, and Corral Lake is good for both trout and bass.

FIFA rocked by ‘World Cup of fraud’

By David Wharton Los Angeles Times

After a day of police raids and high-profile arrests that staggered the world of soccer, prosecutors in the U.S. and Switzerland said their probe into corruption at the sport’s highest levels had only begun.

Trouble for what is often called “the beautiful game” began early Wednesday when U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch announced that a lengthy investigation into the business dealings of FIFA — soccer’s governing body — had uncovered decades of bribery totaling more than $150 million.

Federal racketeering charges were unveiled against 14 people, including nine current and former FIFA executives, seven of whom were arrested at a luxury hotel near the organization’s headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.

None of the alleged schemes involved fixing games. Instead, officials were charged with buying and selling votes to deliver the 2010 World Cup to South Africa and soliciting kickbacks from sports marketers who sought to be affiliated with major competitions.

FIFA executives “corrupted the business of worldwide soccer

Sounders From Page C1

the table, we have the most points per game, we’ll be one of the top scoring teams in the league, if we get a shutout, we’ll be the top defensive team in the league,” Sounders coach Sigi Schmid said. “Twelve games in, those are pretty good benchmarks.”

Then again, that doesn’t mean the Sounders are satisfied with what they’ve accomplished so far.

“I think we can still do better, but that’s me, I’m a coach and I’m never entirely happy,” Schmid said. “There are still times we can find those balls in behind — if we can finish some of those looks that we had, then

to serve their interests and to enrich themselves,” Lynch said.

“They did this over and over, year after year, tournament after tournament.”

As part of a separate criminal proceeding — focused on bidding for the 2018 and 2022 World Cups — Swiss authorities seized electronic data and documents from FIFA offices.

The joint investigations put additional heat on FIFA President Sepp Blatter, who has weathered years of accusations but has never been charged or sanctioned. He was not named in either the American or Swiss cases.

“As unfortunate as these events are, it should be clear that we welcome the actions and investigations of the U.S. and Swiss authorities,” Blatter said in a statement, adding that “such misconduct has no place in football and we will ensure that those who engage in it are put out of the game.”

The longtime chief of soccer is seeking a fifth term in an election scheduled for Friday. FIFA has refused to delay the vote despite growing cynicism about its leadership.

“It’s always been this dark cloud that continually follows around the sport,” said Eric Wynalda, a former U.S. national team

player and current analyst for Fox Sports. “This is the tip of the iceberg.”

The 47-count indictment covers a wide range of FIFA affairs.

Bribe money allegedly was transferred to a contractor building a swimming pool at executive Jeffrey Webb’s home in Georgia.

In another instance, prosecutors allege that the South African government paid $10 million to get the 2010 World Cup; that money was shifted from Switzerland to a New York account, and more than $1 million was diverted for the personal use of former official Jack Warner.

In 2011, Warner allegedly handed out envelopes — each stuffed with $40,000 cash — on behalf of a candidate running for the FIFA presidency. The indictment states that he grew angry upon hearing that a recipient had talked about the payouts.

“There are some people here who think they are more pious than thou,” he allegedly said.

“If you’re pious, open a church, friends. Our business is our business.”

Webb and Warner are key figures in the case because of their prominence in the sport.

Webb serves as one of Blatter’s vice presidents and is head of CONCACAF, a continental confederation that manages soccer

in North America, Central America and the Caribbean under the FIFA umbrella.

Warner retired as CONCACAF president and FIFA vice president in 2011 amid allegations of corruption.

Seven other soccer executives from Central and South America and the Caribbean were also named, as were five sports marketers. Of the seven FIFA officials arrested by Swiss police — who acted on the request of American prosecutors — all but one reportedly will fight extradition.

“If this comes as a surprise to anyone, they haven’t been paying attention to FIFA,” said Richard Sheehan, a finance professor at Notre Dame who studies international soccer.

“This organization is and has been corrupt to the core.”

Even as Swiss police said they plan to question 10 executive committee members, FIFA declined to hold a re-vote on 2018 or 2022.

In the U.S., Lynch said: “I think FIFA has a lot of soul-searching to do.”

American officials have hinted at future developments in their case.

“This really is the World Cup of fraud,” said Chief Richard Weber of the IRS-Criminal Investigation.

“This investigation is not over.”

it would have been a very complete game.”

The goal was Pappa’s first of the season, and just the fifth Sounders goal not scored by Clint Dempsey or Obafemi Martins. Pappa has been very involved in the team’s success, assisting on five goals, but he was relieved to add a goal to his stat sheet.

“I finally scored a goal, but I’m more happy the team got the points,” Pappa said. “We’re at the top of the table and are looking forward to our next game.”

The Sounders had several more chances in the first half and early in the second half, including a few great chances from top scorers Dempsey and Martins, who returned after a two-game absence because of a leg injury. And while the Sounders couldn’t add to the

lead, they were for much of the game the best version of themselves, dominating possession (76 percent in the first half ) to not just create dangerous chances, but keep the Rapids from having many of their own.

Schmid noted that Seattle’s 69.5 percent possession for the game was all the more impressive because of the absence of midfielder Gonzalo Pineda, who is usually a key cog in the passing game.

The Rapids’ best chance was Kevin Doyle’s knuckling, longrange shot in the first half that forced Stefan Frei to make an awkward save, leaning left before falling right to smother the shot, but Colorado was a better team overall in the second half, largely thanks to the halftime substitution to bring Juan Ramirez into the game. Colorado could not,

however, break through against a Sounders defense that has now earned three straight shutouts following a rough performance in a 3-2 loss at Columbus.

“I think we’re playing well,” center back Brad Evans said.

“There’s been a few changes in the lineup. I think we’ve figured a few things out. You always look back at your losses, what we could have done better, and I think we shot ourselves in the foot in a couple of those cases, so maybe we should have even more victories or ties, so that’s the way we look at it. But it’s still early in the season and things can change. Teams start out hot and they fade; teams start out slow and get hot, so we’ve just got to focus on what we’re doing.

Keep the locker room tight and keep the boys focused on the next game.”

ESD honors top scholar-athletes

By David Krueger Herald Writer

EDMONDS — “Sometimes, in between seasons, you get to relax.”

Edmonds-Woodway senior Kiera Towell explained the breaks in her busy schedule, which are few and far between.

Towell, who plays soccer and competes in track and field for the Warriors, was one of seventeen incredibly busy student-athletes who found time to be honored Wednesday night at the 14th annual Edmonds School District Scholar-Athlete and Coach/Community Recognition Banquet at Edmonds-Woodway High School.

Towell won a scholarship award of $3,500. The senior served as a captain for both teams her senior year and helped the Warriors soccer team to a 3A state championship — the firstever girls team state title in school history — as the goalkeeper for Edmonds-Woodway, where she posted 14 shutouts this past season. She was an all-state firstteam selection for soccer.

The state title was one of the highlights of Towell’s high school career.

“That was pretty amazing,” she said. “I didn’t really expect it going in and then as we started the season it looked like we could

The two sisters say there’s a bit of a sibling rivalry, with each wanting to get the last laugh — or the biggest hit.

“If one person does something good, it’s like, ‘I want to do that. I want to make that play,’” Megan said.

Along with Megan, fellow freshman Rachel Christensen has bolstered the Everett offense. Christensen leads the team with a .537 average along with 42 RBI. “Christensen leads our team in hitting,” Millar said. “(Junior Sydney Taggart) is right behind her. They actually went into districts tied and Rachel overtook her with a really strong district (tournament). Megan hit around .460. The second half of the season, Megan was our hottest hitter. She was on fire driving the ball. Lots of doubles and triples.”

Megan may have the current leg up on home runs, but Erin, a pitcher, has benefited significantly from her younger sister’s offensive production. The elder Gordon is 9-1 with four saves — and a game-winning single by her younger sister provided one of those wins.

Along with Taggart, who is 13-0 this season with two saves, the Seagulls have a strong 1-2 punch on the mound.

“We push each other a lot,” Erin said. “My sister and I push each other. Sydney and I push each other.”

win it. And we did! It’s just one of the best experiences of my life.”

Off the field, Towell volunteers with Relay for Life and Food for Thought, an organization that raises money for students who cannot afford food, as well as tutors other Edmonds-Woodway students.

“I just want to help out people where I can,” Towell said. “I know that I’m a bit more fortunate than most people so I want to be able to help those that don’t have the same opportunities that I’ve had.”

After graduating with a 3.97 grade-point average, Towell will attend the University of Pennsylvania in the fall, where she will continue her soccer career while working toward a degree in engineering.

Meadowdale’s Griffin Over was the night’s top winner, taking home a $4,000 scholarship.

The senior from Meadowdale was a captain for both the basketball and soccer teams. He coordinated this year’s Coaches vs. Cancer basketball fundraiser for the Mavericks that brought in over $6,000 for the American Cancer Society.

“For sports, I love playing them. I love all my teammates and they motivate me to get better,” Over said. “Academically, it’s just looking at the future and seeing what opportunities will

open up from valuing my education. Then with service, it’s just seeing how I can benefit the community, knowing that I grew up in a very privileged environment and I should take that and use that to help others.”

On top of all his athletic accomplishments, Over maintained a perfect 4.0 GPA and is the Valedictorian for the Meadowdale Class of 2015. His next challenge will be the University of Notre Dame, where he will study finance or sociology.

In all, 17 athletes were given over $40,000 in scholarships.

Along with Over, Meadowdale honored student-athletes Rory Kirkpatrick, Ciarra Hart and Taylor Monroe-Jones.

Towell, Marc Campagnaro, Nick Venema, Hanna Rehnfeldt and Kelvin Dankwa were the student-athletes chosen from Edmonds-Woodway. Mountlake Terrace’s honorees included Conrad Bratz, Alisha Clingan, Allison Lorraine and Taron Castleton.

Lynnwood celebrated Cristi Phan, Tyler McArthur, Desiree Graham and Andrew Katzenberger.

“It’s a great night. I feel really honored to be out here with such intelligent and great athletes,” said Katzenberger, who received a $3,000 award. “It’s just a great environment with great people. It’s a lot of fun.”

Taggart said that competition, as well as Everett’s resilience, has been key to the Seagulls’ success.

“We are able to fight back if we get down,” Taggart said. “A lot of teams will kind of give up, but our team we fight back. The first game in districts we were down 7-0 in the first inning (against Mountlake Terrace) and we fought back and won it.”

“We just play with a lot of heart and a lot of drive,” Megan added.

“And we play for each other. We just work hard every day.”

The Seagulls proved they were a force with a rematch against Meadowdale (20-3) in the 3A District 1 championship game.

Megan’s second home run of the season got the scoring started for Everett, which routed the Mavericks 15-1 to claim the district’s No. 1 seed to state.

Erin went 3-for-4 with three RBI and two runs scored.

“I thought that was our most complete game of the season offensively, pitching, defense, everything,” Millar said. “That was as good of a game as we’ve played this year. And it couldn’t have come at a more opportune moment.”

The first Meadowdale game was when Erin and the Seagulls realized it might be a special season for Everett softball.

“I think our first Meadowdale game was kind of when we started to realize that we might be going farther than we expect,” Erin said. “We could beat a team that we were worried about. And everyone was contributing.”

Millar, meanwhile, realized about a month earlier in the

season. His revelation came after the Seagulls’ lone loss of the season — a 7-4 game against 4A District 1 champion Jackson on March 25.

“Ironically, it was a loss. That one loss to Jackson — which Jackson has proved to be one of the top 4A teams in the state — and we were right there,” Millar said. “We had a chance to win that game. A few bounces one way or another we could’ve had that game. That was when I told the girls, ‘Hey. We can play with anybody. There isn’t a team in the state that, on any given day, we can’t play with.’ That was, in my opinion, the turning point in the season.”

The Seagulls hope their success — Everett is riding a 20-game winning streak — continues at the state tournament.

For the Gordons, the event is even more special because they get to head to Lacey together.

“I’m really excited because I’ve never got to go to state for a sport. I think it’s pretty cool that I get to go with my sister before I’m gone,” Erin said. “And some of my best friends are with me too.”

Added Megan: “It’s really cool, as a freshman, to be going to state my first year out here.

And to be going with my sister and all my friends is an amazing feeling.”

And if Erin hits her first home run of the season at the state tournament, Millar has just one wish for the occasion.

“One of these days she’s going to get one just enough to get it out,” Millar said. “Hopefully, Megan’s on base when Erin does it.”

Griffen returns to coach basketball at Mariner Herald staff Dexter Griffen is returning for a second stint as the boys basketball coach at Mariner High School.

The school’s athletic director, Nate Duchesne, announced the hiring Wednesday. Griffen replaces Eric Ensign, who posted a 9-13 record in his one season as the Marauders coach.

Griffen guided the Marauders for 11 seasons (1998-2009) and compiled a 147-111 record. He is the all-time winningest coach in the program’s history.

Griffen led Mariner to five state-tournament appearances.

Griffen is about to complete his 18th year as a physical education teacher at Mariner.

“The kids respond well to him because they know he cares about them as people,” Duchesne said in a press release. “Dexter understands the balance between discipline and encouragement.

His teams were always well-prepared, tough, unselfish, and they played the game the right way.

He will be a tremendous mentor to the student-athletes at Mariner High School.

“We are very excited to have him back on board.”

Warriors advance to NBA Finals

By Antonio Gonzalez Associated Press

OAKLAND, Calif. — After a generation of wishing and waiting, the Golden State Warriors have finally arrived on basketball’s biggest stage again.

Stephen Curry had 26 points and eight rebounds, Harrison Barnes added 24 points and the Warriors advanced to the NBA Finals for the first time in 40 years with a 104-90 victory over the Houston Rockets on Wednesday night.

“Why not us?” Curry said to a roaring, golden-yellow shirt wearing crowd after the Warriors received the Western Conference trophy from Alvin Attles, the coach of their last championship team in 1975.

“The Bay Area’s been waiting for 40 years,” Curry said later. “I think it’s time.”

The Warriors shook off a slow start and sweated out a shaky finish in Game 5 to close out the

Rockets and set up a matchup with LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers beginning June 4.

It was hardly the prettiest performance — but one they’ll savor nonetheless.

Yellow streams and confetti fell from the rafters when the final buzzer sounded. The Warriors shared hugs and handshakes, and the crowd chanted “M-V-P!” for Curry.

He relished the moment on the court with his 2-year-old daughter, Riley, who joined him in his postgame news conference — laughing, playfully interrupting him and walking around the room again.

“I think she’s taking advantage of the moment for sure,” Curry quipped.

Dwight Howard led Houston with 18 points and 16 rebounds.

But MVP runner-up James Harden had a forgettable finale, with a playoff-record 13 turnovers and 14 points on 2-of-11

shooting.

“Tried to do a little bit too much and turned the ball over and gave them easy baskets in transition,”

Harden said. “This isn’t where we wanted to end at. It’s a really good season for us. Next year we want to be better, and we will.”

Nationals 3, Cubs 0

It was a tough way for the Rockets’ run to end. They overcame a knee injury that sidelined Howard half the season to finish second in the West, played without starters Patrick Beverley and Donatas Motiejunas in the playoffs and rallied from a 3-1 deficit to beat the Los Angeles Clippers in the second round.

The Warriors were one obstacle Houston couldn’t clear.

“The guys fought hard,” Rockets coach Kevin McHale said. “One thing about the team is that they were battlers, and a lot of guys in that room you feel pretty comfortable going to war with.”

Curry said he had no lingering effects from his frightening fall in Game 4 that left him with a bruised head and right side.

The MVP wore a protective yellow sleeve on his right arm, which he shed in the third quarter after shooting 4-for-12 and the Warriors clinging to a 52-46 halftime lead.

Who’s next in line in the M’s bullpen?

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — It’s two days and counting for the Seattle Mariners in their decision to operate with a shortened relief corps.

Even manager Lloyd McClendon acknowledges it can’t continue much longer.

“I think we’re close,” he said of making a move. “I don’t think it’s (Thursday). It may not even be the next day, but I think we’re close.”

The Mariners opted to operate with a sixman bullpen by optioning Danny Farquhar to Triple-A Tacoma after Monday’s game in order to clear roster space when outfielder Austin Jackson returned from the disabled list.

At the time, general manager Jack Zduriencik characterized the decision as a short-term move that represented something of a gamble.

“We’re prepared to (make another move to add a reliever),” he said. “We’ll go game to game, day to day. We’ll see how it falls into place.”

Rules prevent the Mariners from recalling Farquhar for 10 days unless he replaces

a player placed on the disabled list. So what happens if they need someone sooner?

The leading candidate appears to be right-hander Dominic Leone, who had his third straight scoreless Dominic Leone outing Tuesday when he pitched two innings in closing out Tacoma’s 4-3 victory at Omaha.

The Mariners demoted Leone, as they did Farquhar, after a series of poor big-league outings: six runs in 8⅓ innings over eight appearances. But Leone had a 2.17 ERA last season in 57 games as a rookie.

If not Leone, other possibilities include Mayckol Guaipe, Lucas Luetge and recently signed Kevin Gregg.

Guaipe is described as “Yoervis Medina with better command” and had a 2.55 ERA in 14 outings at Tacoma before giving up five runs in the eighth inning Monday in an 8-5 loss at Omaha.

Luetge, a lefty, has shuttled between Tacoma and the big leagues in recent years, but his current numbers — 13 runs and 19 hits in 19⅓ innings — make him an unlikely

promotion candidate.

Gregg has given up one run in three innings over three outings since joining the Rainiers after compiling a 10.13 ERA in 11 games for the Cincinnati Reds. He missed most of last season because of an elbow injury.

Promoting Gregg would require a corresponding roster move, which likely would require the Mariners to designate one of their veteran non-pitching reserves for assignment.

It is that decision — choosing which veteran to jettison — that pushed the Mariners into their six-reliever gambit. Delaying the decision, even by a few days, bought time to re-examine trade possibilities.

Brad Miller’s emergence as a viable super utilityman appears to put four players at risk: outfielders Justin Ruggiano and Dustin Ackley, veteran utilityman Willie Bloomquist and DH/outfielder Rickie Weeks.

The Mariners also could delay that decision a while longer by optioning shortstop Chris Taylor back to Tacoma and returning Miller to shortstop. Taylor is batting just .169 in 17 games since being called up from Tacoma.

Callaspo to Dodgers, Uribe to Braves in 6-player trade

CLEVELAND — Cleveland Indians infielder Mike Aviles is touched by the show of support he’s getting from teammates for his 4-year-old daughter, who was diagnosed with leukemia this month.

Several Indians players and coaches have shaved their heads to support Aviles and Adriana, who returned home after treatment at the Cleveland Clinic.

“It means a lot for me,” Aviles said. “It shows I’m kind of liked, or my daughter is, anyway. In all honesty, it’s kind of cool when you have your whole team on your side.”

Aviles shaved his head soon after his daughter entered the

Cruz’s home run makes a big splash CHRIS O’MEARA / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Mariners From Page C1

Archer dazzled in a 12-strikeout performance while giving up just two hits and walking none over eight innings. He departed after throwing 95 pitches. The 12 strikeouts matched a career high.

“He was pounding the strike zone and striking out a lot of people,” Hernandez said. “For me, I just had to go out there and match him every inning.

“Every time you face a guy like that, your (performance) level has to be up. I was not pumped. I was calm. Just throwing my good pitches.”

Hernandez surrendered just four hits, all singles, and followed each one by getting a double-play grounder later in the inning. Those DPs minimized his pitch count, which made it a no-brainer to let him close it out.

“What a performance,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “I don’t know what to say about the guy. When we need a complete game, he goes out and gives us a complete game.

“This one lived up to the billing. I can’t say enough about their young starter. He was

tremendous. At times, dominating. ... Needless to say, I was happy to see him leave the game.”

The victory pulled the Mariners back to .500 at 23-23, completed a three-game sweep over Tampa Bay and a 6-3 road trip. It also promised a happy overland flight to Seattle.

“We’re starting to hit our stride a little bit,” McClendon said. “I think it was a little overexaggerated that we fell off a cliff or that we had a country club atmosphere in our clubhouse. I think those were unfair shots.”

Hernandez (8-1) became the first pitcher this year to reach eight victories, while recording his second shutout and lowering his ERA to 1.91.

“We knew it was going to be one of those games,” catcher Mike Zunino said. “We knew, as an offense, if we could outlast Archer with Felix on the mound, that we stood a chance.

And we were able to do that.”

Tampa Bay manager Kevin Cash said he pulled Archer because he wanted Boxberger to start with a clean inning.

“If a guy gets on base,” Cash said, “we’re pulling (Archer), most likely, for (Seth) Smith or (Robinson) Cano in that situation. You try to take care of the

reliever in Box...and present a fair position to succeed.”

Boxberger (2-3) had not allowed a homer in his first 18 games, while compiling a 1.10 ERA, before serving up Kyle Seager’s game-winning blast Tuesday when the Mariners pulled out a 7-6 victory in 10 innings.

This time, after replacing Archer, Boxberger began the ninth by striking out Zunino and Austin Jackson before Smith worked a walk.

“You’re just trying to get on base any way you can,” Smith said. “It was really just an atbat. It ended up being huge but, when you’re doing it, there’s two outs, and you’re just trying to get on base.”

When Boxberger then walked Cano, the Mariners sent Chris Taylor into the game as a pinch-runner for Smith at second base. Then Cruz happened. His homer was just the Mariners’ third hit of the game.

“I was just hoping that it would drop,” he said, “that (center fielder Brandon Guyer) wouldn’t catch it. That was my hope. I hit it OK. It was a good swing.”

It went splash.

And when it did, Hernandez told himself: “That was the run that we need. The game’s over.”

TODAY’S GAME

Cleveland at Seattle, 7:10 p.m.

Seattle Tampa Bay

Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers dealt third baseman Juan Uribe to the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday in a six-player trade that was initially blocked.

The Dodgers also sent righthanded pitcher Chris Withrow to the Braves for infielder Alberto Callaspo, left-handers Eric Stults and Ian Thomas, and minor league right-hander Juan Jaime.

The 36-year-old Uribe was batting .247 with one home run and six RBI in 29 games. He became expendable after losing his starting job to veteran Justin Turner and rookie Alex Guerrero, who was hitting .313 with eight homers in 83 at-bats.

Callaspo originally nixed the trade under a provision that prevents any player who became a major league free agent from being traded without his approval until after June 15. He agreed to a $3 million, one-year contract with the Braves in December.

Uribe had a career-best .311 average last season, along with nine homers and 54 RBI in 103 games.

He is making $6,925,000 in the final season of a two-year contract.

“I can’t control what happens,” he said Tuesday through a translator before the deal was completed. “You have to take things as they come. It’s happened to me before. One day you’re here, one day you’re not.

Thank God there are other teams that are interested in me.”

Callaspo, who has the same agent as Uribe, played for the Los Angeles Angels from 2010-13 before spending last season with Oakland. He merely had to trade clubhouses after his latest move — the Braves were in Los Angeles for the finale of a three-game series at Dodger Stadium.

Callaspo, 32, was hitting .206 with one homer and eight RBI. Stults was designated for assignment by the Dodgers.

hospital.

“She knows that Daddy did it,” he said. “She thinks it’s funny.

She doesn’t understand it, but she knows that Daddy did it.”

Aviles’ new look initially didn’t get a positive reaction.

“At first, she didn’t like the way my head looked,” he said. “The more she looks at it, she’s like, ‘I like it. It looks cool.’ I’m like, ‘All of Daddy’s friends did it, too.’ Little by little, she’ll understand.”

Aviles missed eight games from May 8-17. The Indians placed him on the Family Medical Emergency list for seven days and then moved him to the restricted list. He rejoined the team May 18.

Aviles says it’s been an emotional time for his family.

Adriana has a twin sister, Mayia.

Aviles also has an older daughter, Kyla.

“It kills me not to be home the entire time,” Aviles said. “At the same time, I know my wife is a great mom. She’s doing a great job with her, so everything is good at home. The way I see it is, she’s going to fight and I’ll be right there with her. It’s good to know that we have a lot of support on her side.”

Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis was one of the first players to shave his head and others soon followed.

“It’s a team thing,” Kipnis said.

“It started with Mike’s daughter because of what she’s going through. Unfortunately, she’s going to be losing her hair soon from chemotherapy, and we all

wanted to join in.”

Indians manager Terry Francona is pleased with the support for Aviles and his family. Francona and bench coach Brad Mills have gone with the shavedhead look for several years.

“I know probably some people look at shaved heads as juvenile or whatever, but it’s a bunch of guys that really care about their teammate,” Francona said. “A lot of guys probably don’t even know Adriana, but because it’s Mikey’s daughter she’s important to all of us. I think it’s a way to take something that’s very serious, makes you step back and think.

“I guarantee you when she sees pictures of all these guys, she’s going to smile.”

Mariners designated hitter Nelson Cruz on Wednesday became just the fourth player in the 18-year history of Tropicana Field to hit a ball into the Rays Touch Tank in right-center field. His three-run homer in the ninth inning provided the only runs in Wednesday’s game.

The Touch Tank is a 35-foot, 10,000-gallon aquarium filled with cownose rays taken from the Tampa Bay waters. Fans are permitted to feed the rays during games.

The first player to reach the tank was Arizona’s Luis Gonzalez on June 24, 2007. Detroit’s Miguel Cabrera did it on June 30, 2013. And Tampa Bay’s Jose Lobaton did in on Oct. 7, 2013 in a postseason game.

Heart beating stronger Sure, Cruz has been slugging at a Most Valuable Player-type pace since the start of the season. And he did it again Wednesday by hitting a threerun homer that secured a sweep at Tampa Bay. But the entire heart of the Mariners’ lineup is now starting to heat up.

Robinson Cano, Cruz and Kyle Seager have started all 24 games in May as the three-four-five hitters and are batting a combined .297 with 11 doubles, 15 homers and 40 RBI. Looking back It was 17 years ago Thursday — May 28, 1998 — that Edgar Martinez became the first player to hit a ball onto the lower catwalk at Tropicana Field. Martinez’s drive came in the first inning against Tampa Bay right-hander Jason Johnson and resulted in a three-run homer. The Mariners, behind pitcher Jamie Moyer, went on to win 5-2.

Short hops Seager’s hitting streak ended at 12 games Wednesday when he went 0-for-4. It also ended a 21-game streak, a career-high, of reaching base at least once. … Felix Hernandez is the only American League pitcher with two shutouts this season. The last time a Mariners pitcher had two shutouts in the club’s first 46 games was Randy Johnson in 1993. … Hernandez lowered his career ERA against the Rays to 1.94. That is the best by any opponent with a minimum of 10 starts. The previous leader was Pedro Martinez at 1.99. … The Mariners’ past three road shutouts have come at Tropicana Field. …The Mariners have won six in a row at The Trop.

Their best previous streak was three.

Good day for the French

By Howard Fendrich Associated Press

PARIS — Gael Monfils delivered one final ace, his 21st, and closed out his latest raucous, five-set victory on Court Philippe Chatrier to the delight of roaring, partisan spectators.

An entertainer at heart, Monfils pounded his chest with his right fist repeatedly and, after hugging opponent Diego Schwartzman at the net, used his right shoe to etch a sketch of a smiley face on the French Open main stadium’s red clay.

Needless to say, his adoring public loved that, too.

Since 1983, when Yannick Noah became the most recent man from France to win the championship at Roland Garros, the locals have not had a whole lot to cheer about at their Grand Slam tennis tournament.

So mark Wednesday as a rare bright light along the way: All five of the host country’s men in action advanced to the third round, including three who were seeded — No. 12 Gilles Simon, No. 13 Monfils and No. 14 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga — and two who defeated seeded players — Nicolas Mahut and Benoit Paire.

saying: “He always uses the people (to his advantage), in all his matches.”

While some French players through the years have found the expectations of their countrymen too much to bear during these two weeks — Amelie Mauresmo comes to mind — Monfils and Tsonga occasionally thrive in the setting.

Both men have reached the semifinals in Paris — Monfils in 2008, and Tsonga in 2013. And both say they find the attention from the crowds more help than hindrance.

“For me,” Tsonga said, “it’s something positive.”

Monfils trailed Argentina’s Schwartzman two sets to one, before coming back and improving to 14-10 in five-setters with a 4-6, 6-4, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 win filled with loud cheers between points and plenty of supportive cries of “Allez!”

Everett last August to fill the void left when assistant coach Mark LeRose stepped down to become the general manager of the United States Hockey League’s Sioux City Musketeers.

Sonne, in his first foray into coaching at the junior level, provided a dose of youthful enthusiasm to Everett’s coaching staff as the Tips went on to claim their first U.S. Division title since 2007, when Sonne was a player with the team.

“Brennan did a terrific job as a first-year coach,” Everett general manager Garry Davidson said in a

press release. “He managed the learning curve to become a valuable member of our staff and I have no doubt he’ll continue to carve out a bigger and more defined role in the organization next year. I really like his work ethic and professionalism, plus I appreciate that he’s willing to ask questions to get a better handle on anything he’s unsure about.

He has a bright coaching future ahead of him.”

Coach: Peterson will play for Vikings or not play Associated Press EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Adrian Peterson spent the last five months sending vague and sometimes ambiguous messages about his desire or lack thereof to remain with the Minnesota Vikings.

Peterson and Vikings coach Mike Zimmer finally cut to the chase Wednesday.

"He's really got two choices. He can either play for us or he cannot play," Zimmer said on the second day of optional practices that Peterson skipped. "He's not going to play for anybody else and that's just the way it's going to be."

Hours after Zimmer laid down that edict, Peterson tweeted a statement of his own that he gave to ESPN. "The reason I'm not attending OTAs has nothing to do with wanting to be traded," he said. "It's about securing my future with the Vikings. It's business, not personal and I understand that firsthand. Go Vikings."

Peterson has skipped the optional portion of the Vikings' offseason workouts many times in his career, but the circumstances surrounding his absence this time around are far different.

Peterson's agents made it clear earlier in the offseason that their client would prefer to be traded because he didn't feel like he got the necessary support from some members of the organization

while he dealt with a child abuse charge in Texas last year. Peterson missed all but one game and ultimately pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor for striking his young son with a wooden switch.

Peterson was reinstated last month and has three years and $46 million left on his contract. But none of that money is guaranteed. If he is on the roster for Week 1 this season, his $12.75 million salary will become guaranteed. Skipping the offseason workouts will cost Peterson a $250,000 bonus.

McDonald arrested again SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Ray McDonald has been arrested for the second time this week.

The Santa Clara Police Department says the former San Francisco defensive end violated a restraining order by being at a residence in Santa Clara on Wednesday.

The restraining order was issued after an earlier domestic violence incident in Santa Clara on Memorial Day. In that incident, he allegedly broke down a bedroom door to get to his ex-fiancee and their infant.

He was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence and child endangerment, but was free on bail. The Chicago Bears released the lineman Monday following that arrest.

The 49ers released McDonald in December citing a “pattern of poor decision-making.”

That move came just a month after Santa Clara County prosecutors declined to file charges against McDonald in a separate domestic violence investigation

Spring fresh ideas

By William Hageman Chicago Tribune

Spring brings a plethora of new products for gardeners to get excited about. Here are just a few that span the practical to the playful, for veteran gardeners and rookies alike.

Dahlia magic. Dahlias can color-bomb a garden like almost no other plants, and Longfield Gardens has developed a new one, Dahlia Dazzling Magic, that’s an attention-grabber. Each flower is unique. The blossoms are pale yellow with red centers, but the amount of red varies as it spreads across the petals.

Dazzling Magic grows 3 feet tall, making it perfect for flower beds and borders. Priced at $9.95 for a three-bulb bag; visit the website www.longfield-gardens.com.

company. “You might stick it on a wall or maybe build a big feature pergola. It can be a fence, attached to railroad ties, a balustrade, make it part of a (decorative) light box. Multiple screens for outdoors.”

The screens are approximately 6 feet by 3 feet and weigh 25 to 40 pounds, depending on the design. They come pre-rusted and sealed for all-weather use, and have pre-drilled holes to make joining or installation easy. $200 to $300, depending on the design; go to bemetalbe.com. We also found them at amazon.com.

Garden anywhere. No yard?

Not even a tiny patch of earth to plant a garden? Click and Grow products let you grow herbs, vegetables, fruits and flowers indoors in the smallest of spaces. The kits set up quickly, and all you have to add is water. We tried out two, the Smart Herb Garden and the Smartpot for strawberries. The kits seem foolproof, and we anticipate a feast in two to four months.

Prices start at about $64. For more information or to buy the kits, go to www.clickandgrow.com.

Trusty trowel. There are a lot of digging implements out there, but Corona’s eGrip trowel stands out for its added features:

a comfortable no-slip handle, a sharp edge to cut open bags of soil and heavy-duty blade with 1-inch depth markings, all helpful when planting. $7.98 at Lowe’s.

Raking in convenience. With a stainless steel head that’s only 8 inches wide, Lee Valley’s 59-inch-long rake makes it easy to work between plants where standard-width implements won’t fit. $41.50 from leevalley. com (type “narrow rake” in the search field).

Lawn surfing. Scotts has launched a free mobile My Lawn app to give users step-by-step guidance on how to care for their lawns. There’s a precipitation gauge, personalized recommendations on feeding and seeding, capability for a live chat with a Scotts representative, a mulch calculator, weed identifier and

more. The My Lawn app is available in the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Gnomes run amok. When chipmunks and squirrels are no longer afraid of rubber snakes, it’s time to invest $22.99 in a zombie garden gnome. They stand just over 11 inches tall and are made of terra cotta. Available from vat19.com and other online sites, including amazon.com.

Eco-friendly planting. Made

by Botanical Interests from 100 percent recycled material, Paperboard Pots offer an eco-friendly way to grow seedlings. They have a perforated bottom that can be removed to allow the entire plant to be placed in the ground.

Wait before you toss toys — they may be worth something

BERTOIA

This Marx Drummer Boy is in excellent condition. Wind it up and the drummer beats the drum and moves across the floor. It sold for $370 at a Bertoia sale in Vineland, N.J. in September 2014.

oving to a smaller house or apartment or trying for a less cluttered house usually means there are unwanted toys. “Kovels Antiques and Collectibles Price Guide 2015” lists a late-1950s toy Radicon Robot that sold for $37,200, a very rare 1916 French doll that auctioned for $300,000, and a blue 1962 Chrysler Imperial friction toy with the box that sold for $26,550. And many more toys are listed that sold for hundreds and even thousands of dollars.

What makes a toy that valuable?

Barbie, Hot Wheels, stuffed Teddy bears and other popular toys are easy to find at yard sales for low prices, but the special ones exist today in small numbers. The first

Supplying Snohomish County with equipment rentals, sales and repair.

Barbie, 1959, in excellent condition is worth $6,000. A rare Steiff teddy bear even in “much loved” condition brings over $1,000. Toys that move and make noise get good prices.

In the 1930s and ’40s, many colorful tin toys were made in the U.S. by Louis Marx. He founded his toy company in 1919, and by the 1950s, his company was the largest toy manufacturer in the world. Chances are there is a Marx toy in your family.

“Drummer Boy” is a tin Marx toy made in about 1949. It is a tin man dressed in a yellow and orange band uniform, pushing a large drum balanced on a wheel.

Wind it up and it rolls across the floor while pounding the drum.

That toy sold recently for $370.

It was inexpensive when new because Marx had reused some old toy parts and patterns.

The company created a Charlie McCarthy toy in 1938, when the ventriloquist dummy was a star on the radio. The toy’s drum said “Strike up the Band, Here comes Charlie.” The head and lithographed designs on the tin drum were changed to make the new toy. Charlie, harder to find, sells for over $2,000.

Before you clean out your toys, take the time to do some research.

Age, condition and rarity set the price, so don’t assume an old Hot Wheels or Barbie or a damaged teddy bear is worth only a few dollars.

Q: I have a round vase made from a mortar shell from World War I. It’s been in my husband’s family for years. They got it from relatives in Europe. The brass vase is hammered and decorated. It’s 81⁄2 inches high and has several letters and numbers marked on the bottom, including the date “Jun 1 1917.” Does it have any value?

A: This is a form of folk art known as “trench art.” It started during World War I when soldiers in the trenches used metal casings from bullets and mortar shells to make vases, ashtrays, lamps, letter openers, and other objects. Now it’s used to describe art from other conflicts.

Direct-sow flowers: Gardening made easy

By Beth Botts Chicago Tribune

It’s the simplest kind of gardening: Plant some seeds and watch the flowers grow. And now that the soil has warmed up, there are plenty of bright annuals you can sow right outside in the garden.

You likely won’t see blooms until midsummer, though. That’s why many gardeners give annual flower seeds a head start of several weeks indoors under lights in spring: so they will bloom earlier once they are transplanted outdoors. In our relatively short growing season, even six weeks may seem too long to wait for flowers.

On the other hand, you can’t beat the simplicity of direct-sowing, or the price, either — a couple of dollars for a packet of seeds.

“It’s very easy to grow from seed and it’s very economical,” says Diane Blazek, executive director of the National Garden Bureau, a seed industry trade group that has a wide range of advice on its website.

You also are likely to find a much wider variety of plants available as seeds than as plants in the garden center.

Blazek offers these tips for sowing annuals in the garden: Prepare the soil. Few seeds will sprout in dense, heavy clay. Dig in compost or other organic matter to lighten it. Rake the soil surface smooth and moisten it. You can sow

Direct-sow flowers — putting seeds in the soil — is the easiest way to garden. Pictured are marigolds, great for attracting pollinating insects.

annual seeds in pots, too: Use a good-quality, welldrained potting mix.

Read the seed packet.

It will tell you how far apart to plant the seeds and how deep. Some seeds need to be well covered in soil to germinate, while others need to be more exposed to the sunlight. Some gardeners sow seed thickly and plan to thin the seedlings later. Do this only if you are sure you won’t forget to thin them, Blazek warns; if plants grow up crowded, none will thrive.

(Even if you set seed judiciously, keep an eye on the seedlings; you may still need to thin some.)

Keep the seeds watered. Seeds need to be steadily moist until they germinate. Sprinkle often, using a very gentle spray to avoid disturbing the seeds or the soil. Once the plants sprout, water less often.

Be patient. Most annuals will sprout in five to 10 days, but this is dependent

on the weather conditions.

Fertilize as needed.

Once the seedlings appear, apply a liquid organic or synthetic fertilizer at onehalf the rate specified on the label every other time you water. Annuals need a steady supply of nutrients to keep flowering, but too much fertilizer can damage the plants.

Here are some annual flowers that will brighten the midsummer garden if you sow the seeds outdoors in May in a sunny spot. A number of them have edible blooms.

Sunflower (Helianthus annuus). For kids, it’s a fun project to grow a “sunflower house” — a circle of seeds that will grow into a hideaway of tall sunflowers. (Don’t forget to leave a gap for a door.)

Bachelor’s button (Centaurea cyanus). This jaunty blue flower, also known as cornflower, nods on long stems about 30 inches high and has a casual charm.

CALENDAR EVENTS “A Tea in the Garden”: Noon to 4 p.m. May 31, 19502 96th Ave. NW, Keeping it Green Nursery, Warm Beach. Enjoy the gardens, trails in a natural setting and have tea and cookies.

Marigold (Tagetes).

Bold and bright in shades of orange and yellow, marigolds are among the most popular of garden flowers.

Nasturtium (Tropaeolum). These showy rambling plants have attractive rounded leaves as well as flowers in colors from creamy white through yellow and pink to orange.

Spider flower (Cleome hassleriana). The name is perfect, if you can imagine huge pink, white or purple spiders. Or else think of fragrant fireworks above your garden bed.

Four-o’clocks (Mirabilis jalapa). The trumpetshaped flowers, with pink, yellow and white on the same plant and sometimes the same bloom, open in the evening, with an orange-blossom fragrance, and bloom into the night.

Zinnia (Zinnia). Cheerful blooms come in shades of red, pink, yellow, orange, purple, lavender, green and white.

Cosmos (Cosmos bipinnatus). The crinkled petals and bright yellow centers of cosmos flowers stand 2 to 3 feet high on slender stems with ferny foliage.

Moss rose (Portulaca grandiflora). Vivid ruffled blooms appear above a mat of foliage on a lowgrowing, spreading plant that can handle hot, fairly dry sites.

Morning glory (Ipomea purpurea). Climbing up a mailbox, a downspout, a porch or a trellis, morning glory is a summer classic.

What: Bold golden and bright green stripes on sword-like leaves distinguish this cultivar of Iris pallida. To top it off the purple flowers with yellow beards are scented, being very reminiscent of grape Kool-Aid or grape soda. When the flowers are finished the attractive variegated foliage extends the dramatic interest through autumn and even winter, if mild enough. Iris pallida “Variegata” is slightly more tolerant of competition than its sister cultivar I. pallida “Argentea Variegata,” although nothing too vigorous. Interplant it with low,

open perennials that also do well in full sun and very well-drained soil. Cut the foliage back when it looks bad in the fall. It will keep its vigor with regular dividing every three or four years in August or September.

Where: This iris is best in full sun and well-drained soil. It will tolerate sandy sites and clay soils if the drainage is adequate.

Once established it is fully drought tolerant. It is best to grow in an open airy site with little competition.

Size: Reaches a height of 2 feet, 6 inches with a spread of 2 feet, 6 inches.

Best blooming shrubs to give your garden summer color

Kovel From Page D1

The markings meant something to the person making the vase, but it’s impossible to decipher them now. June 1 probably was the date of an important battle. Other numbers and letters may identify the division or unit the soldier belonged to or the place where they were fighting. Trench art is collectible. The value of your vase is about $200.

Q: We found a picture of World War I soldiers in our attic. It’s about a yard long. There appear to be about a hundred soldiers sitting and standing in front of a line of tents. It reads “Co. L, 3rd Pioneer Inf., Camp Wadsworth, S.C., Moore Photo.” Can you give us any information about this photo and its value?

A: Camp Wadsworth was an army mobilization center from 1917 to 1919, during World War I. Pioneer Infantry regiments marched at the head of each battalion to clear the way.

They did minor construction, maintained roads and bridges, and built trenches, bomb shelters, and gun emplacements.

The War Department chose soldiers “experienced in life in the open, skilled in woodcraft and simple carpentry.” The soldiers were also trained as infantry, but their main job was clearing and preparing the way for the rest of the battalion. Contact the National Archives (www.archives. gov) for more information. If you’re interested in selling the picture, you should contact an auction house that sells photos or military items.

Don’t think of them as roses but rather as landscape shrubs with rose-like flowers.

Hydrangeas. The big leaf varieties do best in morning sun and afternoon shade and they come in all shapes and sizes. The flowers are mostly pink or blue, but there are also many new forms that are multi-colored and repeat

bloomers. For sunny locations try the P.G. types like Limelight or Pinky Winky or for a more unusual leaf form the Oakleaf varieties.

Spiraeas. Work horses for the sunny border these shrubs will bloom in early June and if you shear them back will re-bloom in the fall. Magic Carpet has been my long-time favorite but the new Double Play series is more mildew resistant and the foliage color more vibrant.

Rose of Sharon. These are hardy hibiscus that bloom in August and come in both single and double forms. Blue Satin is a true blue form. They are late to leaf out in the spring but make up for it in late summer.

Butterfly bush. The

breeding revival and the new Sonic Bloom series will give you blooms now and again in the fall.

Clethera. Also known as Summer Sweet this is a late bloomer with white or pink flowers (Ruby Spice is a real winner) that has wonderful fragrance hence the name.

Itea. Sweet Spire can be an awkward growing shrub but the summer flowers smell very pleasant and the dark red fall color hangs on forever. Little Henry is a winner. Both Clethera and Itea tolerate wet soils so they are a good candidate for Northwest soils.

Leycesteria. Golden Lanterns (also sold as Jealousy) may be one of my all-time favorite summer blooming shrubs. The

My husband was a Pearl Harbor survivor at Hickam Field. I’d like to give the bottle to one of my children, but I’m not sure of their interest. Is this bottle a collector’s item? What is it worth, and where can I sell it if none of my children want it?

A: This Pearl Harbor decanter was made for Beam by Regal China in 1972. Another decanter,

straight species is on the noxious weed list but all of the varieties you will find in the garden centers are sterile and safe to plant.

They come in many colors and growing habits — from 18 inches tall to 5 feet tall — and will attract both butterflies and hummers in the summer.

Potentilla. OK, I admit this is not my favorite summer blooming shrub but for absolute drought tolerance and “thrive on neglect” toughness it’s hard to beat. It comes in white, pink and shades of gold and orange.

Weigela. The best thing about this plant is listening to customers trying to pronounce it. But seriously, this old-time shrub has gone through an extensive

with “Pearl Harbor Survivors Association” on the front and the island of Oahu and three ships on the back, was made in 1976. The Pearl Harbor Survivors Association was founded in 1958 and was disbanded because there were so few survivors still alive. These decanters usually sell online for $10 to $20.

Dryer vent cleaning prevents fires, improves efficiency

W

hat you can’t see can hurt your wallet, or worse.

Some of the biggest threats and money sieves at home are things you can’t see, like your clothes dryer vent.

The easily neglected piping, which in larger homes can exceed 40 feet, often goes ignored for years, sometimes decades.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, that inattention causes more than 15,000 fires annually.

“A lot of people don’t understand how bad the problem can be,” says Scott Smedstad, owner of Arizona Air Duct Cleaning in suburban Phoenix. “A lot have never had it done.”

According to Glen Mayfield, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard of Central Indiana, if your dryer takes more than 40 minutes for a load, feels hot to the touch while running or collects large amounts of lint during operation, you’re probably ready for a cleaning.

If you want to clean your dryer vent on your own, there’s equipment available, including brush kits that cost anywhere from $15 to over $50 based on length and quality.

Both Smedstad and Mayfield say results vary.

“Many do it successfully,

but (the brushes) can break or disengage, so you have to be careful to make sure it works properly and it doesn’t get stuck,” Mayfield says. “I’ve retrieved a lot of them.”

Smedstad has also seen good intentions go bad.

“Rarely is someone going to have enough or the right equipment to do it on their own,” Smedstad says.

The longer the ventilation pipe, and the more bends and buildup it has, the more difficult the job.

Professionals like Smedstad and Mayfield use a sturdy snake or power brush to release clogs, along with a strong vacuum to remove the impediments.

Along with substandard brushes, Mayfield and Smedstad shudder at another do-it-yourself tactic: using a leaf blower to clear the vent from the inside.

“You can do that if it’s thoroughly cleaned first, but most people blow it and plug it up 10 times worse,” Smedstad says.

“Sometimes it’s packed in so bad people have to cut the ceiling out to take the pipe apart. It isn’t a real good idea.”

Mayfield agrees.

“Lint is moist, and a blower can’t clean it out,” he says. “It’s like a snowball, and the more it rolls the bigger it gets.”

Lint isn’t the only enemy, as birds are a common infiltrator. Entering from the outside, they love building nests in the closed, warm space.

“They’re a huge problem,” Mayfield says.

“Sometimes they’ll peck the vent cover until they can get it open, and they can get in even if it’s in good shape. We’ve found them six and eight feet deep into the vent.”

How much does dryer vent cleaning cost?

Smedstad’s average dryer vent cleaning costs around $95, while Mayfield charges $125 to $175, depending on the job.

The service saves customers money both short- and long-term.

Mayfield cites industry studies that say clogged vents can add $18 to $25 to your monthly energy bill.

Also, since clogged vents render dryers ineffective, it isn’t uncommon for a homeowner to scrap a unit because they think it’s shot.

Couple clashes over his drinking

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Hi, Carolyn: My girlfriend and I recently got into an argument about how much is appropriate to drink at a social occasion (I’m OK with drinking more, though she’s certainly not a teetotaler). I’m fine with having different standards, and negotiating situations as a couple, but I get the sense she is judging me — she keeps arguing that my behavior is unhealthy.

Neither of us believes I am an alcoholic, as I seldom drink alone and when I do drink in groups, it is usually in moderation. How do I tell her I’m OK with us negotiating, but not with her telling me my behavior is wrong?

— Clashing Unhealthy how? Does she say?

Does “usually in moderation” mean “sometimes to excess”?

The relationship issue here is one of stasis. It’s not OK — healthy — for two people in a relationship to remain in a position where one maintains an expressed negative view of the other’s behavior while the other continues behaving in the disapproved way.

Not only is that a recipe for unhappiness, with one always judging and the other always judged, but it’s also a violation of trust. The point of having a partner is in the acceptance of each other, in the sharing of life’s burdens so

meanwhile, is hard to pin down.

She could be overreacting just as easily as you could be underreacting. One angle worth trying is to start “negotiating” — identifying situations where it makes sense for you to cut back.

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT that each of you feels lighter.

One seeing the other as a burden defeats that.

Obviously two people will never do everything to the other’s liking, and of course when something is out of balance, then it’s important for someone to bring it up. That seems to be the case here.

But the person being asked to change always has the prerogative to say no, as you did. That means it’s your girlfriend’s turn to either make a change or choose not to — and that means deciding whether she thinks you have a drinking problem. If she does, then she needs to break up with you. If she doesn’t, then she needs to lay off it.

This is how you can talk to her about it — by saying you’ve heard her, you’ve thought about it, you disagree. Then ask her if this is a deal-breaker, because, if it’s not, then you’d like her to drop the subject.

The alcohol issue here,

Re: Drinking: It’s my experience that when someone thinks someone else is drinking too much, they usually are. The letter-writer should really take a closer look at his drinking habits. You don’t have to drink alone to be an alcoholic, and drinking in moderation means that at the end of the evening you still (mostly) feel and behave like you do when you’re completely sober.

In-laws’ driving habits a cause for concern Dear Abby: My in-laws are fabulous. They love me and think the world of our 2-year-old daughter, “Hayley.” They do anything to support us.

Recently, they asked to take Hayley overnight and drive a number of places with her. My concern is the driving part. My father-inlaw doesn’t believe in car seats.

On a few occasions he has asked me to just hop in the car with Hayley without a car seat. I refused.

Another time, they had a circa-1980 car seat and asked to take Hayley with them to church. When I went to put her in the seat, the buckles wouldn’t work.

When I reached over to the other side, the seat fell over.

It wasn’t even strapped in!

Now for my biggest fear: My mother-in-law is a notorious distracted driver — she applies makeup, eats food, talks on the phone and texts. I am not comfortable with her taking Hayley in the car with her.

How do I approach this with them? I don’t want to harm our relationship, and I’d like them to spend time with their grandchild independently. But I can’t put my daughter in a dangerous situation. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

— Fearful Mom In San Antonio Dear Fearful Mom: Your fears appear to be well founded. Your “fabulous” in-laws cannot be trusted to transport your little girl.

My first thought was that you and your husband could buy them a car seat and have it installed. But if you can’t trust your fatherin-law to use it, or your mother-in-law to devote her full attention to her driving when her grandchild is in the car, then the child’s safety must come RIP HAYWIRE

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE ACROSS 1 Many Manolo Blahniks 6 Huger than huge 10 Way-out challenge?

Dear Abby: My husband is very affectionate. He loves to cuddle, snuggle and sweet-talk morning, noon and night. However, he doesn’t do it with me — he does it with our cats.

Don’t get me wrong — he’s a good husband, and I get a quick hug and kiss goodbye when I leave for work in the mornings and he holds my hand when we walk. But when we go to bed at night, he turns his back to me, reaches behind him, pats me on the arm and says goodnight. There is no cuddling and no sweet-talk with me.

Sometimes I would like a little scratch behind MY ears. I’m only 62 and I can’t imagine living this way for the rest of my life, but I love this man, so divorce is out.

Any advice? — “Meow” In Ogden, Utah Dear “Meow”: Was your husband like this before you married him? If so, did you accept his proposal thinking you could change him? If not, then it appears you have a serious communication problem.

If you haven’t already, you need to tell him what you need in order to feel as loved and cherished as the cats. And if that doesn’t work, you both need marriage counseling Universal Uclick

‘Hitchcock/Truffaut’ looks at great directors’ careers

By Kenneth Turan Los Angeles Times

CANNES, France — It is, film people agree, one of the few indispensable books on the movies.

It’s the printed record of an unprecedented conversation, a tape-recorded colloquy between two exceptional directors, Alfred Hitchcock and François Truffaut, talking candidly about the philosophy as well as the mechanics of their craft.

Yet even though “Hitchcock/Truffaut,” first published in 1967, is a memorable reading experience, turning it into a documentary film would seem a daunting task. But Kent Jones had a different opinion. “I didn’t see any problems,” he says. “I was really into the challenges.”

In fact, when Jones, who’s found the time to do documentaries on Val Lewton and Elia Kazan as well as writing criticism and currently serving as director of the New York Film Festival, was approached to direct the film, “I jumped at the chance” in part because “I don’t think there is such a thing as a bad Hitchcock movie.

“Hitchcock’s deeply invested in every single one of his films. For someone who’s got that big a body of work, Hitchcock and Jean Renoir are alone.”

The resulting documentary, also called “Hitchcock/ Truffaut” and having its premiere at the Festival de

Cannes before being distributed theatrically by Cohen Media Group, handsomely rewards Jones’ passion.

Smart, thoughtful and elegantly done, “Hitchcock/ Truffaut” is more than an authoritative look at the careers and interpersonal dynamics of these two unlikely soul mates. It’s also, as Jones intended, a love letter to film itself, to the value and lure of the cinematic experience.

Though he is best known to U.S. audiences as the director of French New Wave classics like “The 400 Blows,” “Shoot the Piano Player” and “Jules and Jim,” Truffaut first worked as a critic for the influential journal Cahiers du Cinema.

He came to view Hitchcock as not only his favorite filmmaker but the best in the world as well.

Truffaut wrote Hitchcock a letter that the British director said brought tears to his eyes, suggesting the booklength interview. It took place over a week in 1962 and lasted 27 hours, with Helen Scott doing the translating since the men did not share a common language.

One of the pleasures of the “Hitchcock/Truffaut” film is that it makes extensive use of those taped conversations, allowing us in effect to eavesdrop on history and get a sense of the spontaneous passion and conviction both men brought to the table.

That passion is not something usually associated with Hitchcock, who

was often portrayed in the media, partly with his own cooperation, as something of a disinterested technocrat. Nothing, Jones and his film emphasize, could be further from the truth.

“He’s so animated, so deeply in the moment,” Jones explains of the tapes, referring for instance to Hitchcock’s talking about the emotional scene in “Vertigo” where James Stewart’s character is waiting anxiously for Kim Novak’s to come out of a hotel bathroom.

“This is not a guy who made movies on paper; that was something he sold.

The same is true when he talked about ‘Psycho,’ when he says it was pure film that caused the audience to react the way it did. Not a big star, not a celebrated novel. It was pure film.”

It was to impact the public view of Hitchcock, Jones said, that Truffaut thought of the book project in the first place.

“He wanted to correct the American image of Hitchcock as a light entertainer, but he also wanted to correct overly abstract French formulations that removed Hitchcock from the circumstances in which the films were made. Truffaut felt Hitchcock didn’t need help, he didn’t need to be compared to Racine, he just needed to be described accurately.”

Because he took this task so seriously, Truffaut put a lot of time and effort into preparation for the

Have you just purchased a house?

Sure, you may still have lots of work ahead of you before you can call it the perfect home, but settling in fast and getting cozy will set you on your way.

Here are five tips to help you get comfortable.

NEW HOME OWNERS MONTH!

For a job well done, call in some real professionals — a plumber, interior decorator, house painter, etc.

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

2. Entrust any renovations and repairs

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

Flooring

3. You don’t know what to do with the living room? You’re not talented in creating color combinations? Enlist the help of an interior designer to create the perfect ambiance. And if you have a lot of rooms to paint and just the thought of it is getting you down, hire a team of painters; the work will be done quickly and done well, and you can get on with other tasks.

4. If the house is big but your many belongings are already making it feel cramped, there is a solution. Call in a home storage systems expert to show you how to maximize the space you have.

5. Lastly, if it isn’t already done, you should invest in some basic tools for maintaining the house and yard. A lawnmower and a kitted-out toolbox are always useful!

Francois Truffaut

interviews. As French director Olivier Assayas says in the film, this book was an essential part of Truffaut’s life’s work, fully as important to him as one of his films.

Assayas is one of 10 directors, including France’s Arnaud Desplechin, Japan’s Kiyoshi Kurosawa, and America’s Martin Scorsese, Wes Anderson and David Fincher, whose on-screen interviews add informed analysis and enthusiasm to the final project.

“I just wanted filmmakers, I wanted it to be very pure, I didn’t want to get into the register of actors talking about their experience working with Hitchcock,” Jones explains.

“I’ve been talking to Marty and Arnaud about him for years, and with the others I wanted people who were going to be surprising, who would rise to the occasion and speak extemporaneously with passion and interest.”

When it came to illustrating the conversations between Hitchcock and Truffaut, Jones made expert use of clips from moments in Hitchcock films both familiar (the shower scene in “Psycho,” the kiss in “Notorious”) and not.

They all serve to illustrate Fincher’s intriguing oncamera comment to the effect that cinema is editing behavior over time, making short events long and long events short. Even people familiar with both directors will find elements of “Hitchcock/Truffaut” surprising, especially a moment where Hitchcock seems haunted by the question of whether he might have been looser behind the camera.

“Should I have experimented more with character and narrative?” he wonders to Truffaut.

“Did I become a prisoner of my own form?” One of the many questions this film will leave you pondering.
