‘Inference of favoritism’ at PUD An ethics report says there was merely the appearance of a conflict of interest when a former worker got a no-bid contract. By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

EVERETT — Audrey Taber stood in front of the room of students and parents while her guidance counselor at Cascade High School read off a list of her qualities: focused, determined, humble. “But she’s one of the most brilliant students we’ve ever had at Cascade High,” Kim Taylor said. Taber was awarded one of four Anthony G. Bozich scholarships from the Rotary Club of Everett on Tuesday night. “I feel very honored. This was very unexpected,” Taber said. The scholarship, totaling $17,500 over four years, will help her when she enrolls in the University of Washington’s Department of Civil and

The Everett Rotary gave out $149,500 in scholarship money Tuesday at its annual presentation. The club gives out scholarships to local students every year and has given out more than $1.5 million over the years. This year, the awards were given to 43 students in public schools within the city of Everett, plus one to an Everett Community College student. “The kids are very impressive,” said Mark Valentine, this year’s Rotary president. “Some of them are impressive

You have to admire their determination,” Valentine said. Soledad Medina held back tears when she received a $5,000 AVID Scholarship. The scholarships are for students in the AVID program, which stands for Advancement Via Individual Determination. It’s a college-preparatory program for students with academic promise but of below-average income or other reduced means. Medina, who is 20 and graduating from Sequoia High School, is also raising a 3-year-old son at home. “I’m really thankful,” said Medina, who plans to enroll in

The scholarships were presented at the Everett School District’s Community Resource Center and cheered as their names were called to receive their awards, which ranged from a $500 AVID college supplies shopping spree to the four $17,500 Bozich scholarships.

SNOHOMISH — The city’s last remaining mill is shutting down after almost 75 years. The Seattle-Snohomish Mill, a family-owned company that has been in business since 1941, plans to close this summer, laying off 68 people. The company expects to shut down the sawmill at 9525 Airport Way by the end of this month when it runs through the last of its logs. The firm’s planing mill, which produces surfaced, finished lumber, likely will close by the end of July, said Megan McMurray, the mill’s president. The market is overloaded with lumber, and there is too little demand, McMurray said. She doesn’t expect that to change any time soon. “In general, as a business owner, you have to assess the market and assess the bottom line,” McMurray said. It’s difficult to compete with much larger companies around the Northwest and Canadian companies that are producing lumber, she said. “It had nothing to do with my employees’ experience, performance or attitude,” McMurray said. “It had everything to do with the market.” Snohomish City Manager Larry Bauman said mills have been an important part of the city’s heritage. He said he had

scholarship, given by Don and Jan Jensen on behalf of their son, a Cascade High graduate who died in 2002 after falling from a roofdeck at the University of Washington. This year’s recipient was Ngoc-Thao Nguyen, who plans to major in chemistry at the University of Washington in the fall and eventually become a pediatrician, a dream inspired in part by the 2014 death of fellow Cascade student Michael Alcayaga from leukemia. “Once you become ill, you always need to have someone there to help you,” Nguyen said. Don Jensen, Brett Jensen’s father, said he couldn’t be happier with Nguyen receiving the scholarship. In addition to the Rotary scholarship, the Jensens also endow a scholarship in Brett’s name at Cascade High, for which Nguyen was also a candidate. “We could have given it to her there, too,” Jensen said. The Rotary’s endowment sits at about $3 million, Valentine said, and a new scholarship named after the group’s past president, Stephen Saunders, will likely be awarded next year. Saunders’ estate gave the Rotary a $511,000 gift after he died in 2014 at the age of 101.

Mayor: Lynnwood poised for more growth By Rikki King Herald Writer

LYNNWOOD — This is a big year for Lynnwood. Coming soon, the community of 36,000 will see its first largescale construction crane and get its first roundabout. A trail from the heart of Lynnwood stretching to the Puget Sound waterfront is on the drawing table.

City leaders speak with optimism about the budget, bustling construction and plans for a new City Center downtown area connected to light rail. Lynnwood — Snohomish County’s fourth-largest city — has a bright future, but more work needs to be done, Mayor Nicola Smith said Tuesday in her second annual State of the City address. Lynnwood struggles with a

reputation for congestion, shopping and suburban sprawl, according to the mayor’s presentation. Still, the past 18 months have been a time of healing, change and growth, City Council President Loren Simmonds said. The city, “a perennial underachiever,” needed a makeover from the inside out, he said. “A majority of us probably wondered if we’d ever get our

act together as a city,” Simmonds said. Now, he said, Lynnwood “is on the cusp of becoming the major urban center of south Snohomish County. Believe it.” More construction is under way now than has been seen in 20 years, said Ed dos Remedios, a former councilman who was honored recently for volunteer work. He cited the plan for City

Center and the approach of light rail. “When City Center is complete, Lynnwood is not just going to be defined as the mall,” he said. Staff have been rebuilding the city emergency fund and just last week submitted 2014 financial reports to the state Auditor’s Office, Smith said. Auditors have See LYNNWOOD, Page A8

Felony charge in domestic dispute

Carnival ride goes sideways

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

MARK MULLIGAN / THE HERALD

A semi-truck trailer tipped over and dumped a large carnival ride onto the roadway just off I-5 Tuesday morning. The mishap was reported around 10:30 a.m. at the Smokey Point rest stop exit. The semi was pulling two trailers on a curve. The rear trailer tipped and rolled over on its side, Washington State Patrol trooper Mark Francis said. The accident damaged the carnival ride known as “The Sizzler.” The driver, who was not injured, is expected to be cited for driving too fast for conditions and for having defective brakes, Francis said.

Celebration’s door open for all Latinos M ay has come and gone, this time without a Cinco de Mayo event that’s been held in Everett for years. That’s because Familias Unidas, a family support center serving the local Latino community, will launch a new celebration Saturday with a wider focus. Rather than being centered only around those of Mexican heritage, “Celebrating Our People” has been planned to reach all Latin American communities in Snohomish County. The cultural, wellness and resource event is scheduled for 1-5 p.m. Saturday at Trinity Lutheran Church in Lynnwood. It’s free,

JULIE MUHLSTEIN but meals will be sold. Sandra Solano-Huber is program supervisor with Familias Unidas. For the past 13 years, she said, the support center has held a Cinco de Mayo celebration at Everett High School’s cafeteria. “Thirteen years ago, there

weren’t a lot of events that addressed our Mexican families,” Solano-Huber said Tuesday. “Today, Latino communities are much more diverse.” Cinco de Mayo — it’s not Mexican Indpendence Day — is a May 5 observance marking an 1862 Mexican victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla. “From Cinco de Mayo, we have moved to a Latin American celebration inviting the entire community,” SolanoHuber said. In Snohomish County, “we have seen an increase in families from Colombia, quite a few people from Peru, and many more

from our Central American countries,” particularly Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras, she said. “The majority are Mexican, but Latino means much more than that. We want them to feel welcome and appreciated,” she said. The U.S. Census Bureau’s 2013 population estimate showed that 9.5 percent of Snohomish County’s 746,446 people classified themselves as Hispanic or Latino. Statewide in the 2013 estimate, 11.9 percent of 6,973,742 people in Washington classified themselves as

MARYSVILLE — A Marysville woman who was arrested last month after she allegedly shot at her husband over housework is now charged with felony assault. Prosecutors allege that Starlene Roth, 54, intentionally tried to harm her husband when she pointed a 9mm Smith & Wesson at him during a dispute. Roth is charged with second-degree domestic violence assault. The charge is a strike offense under the state’s persistent offender law. Roth was being held on $250,000 bail. She pleaded not guilty to the charge earlier this week. Roth’s husband called 911 on May 9, reporting that his wife of 31 years had shot at him. The man was not injured and had fled their house. He told police he had been hospitalized for a few days and had just returned home to recuperate when the dispute broke out. Roth allegedly was upset with him because “he hadn’t been able to do anything around the house,” Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Julie Walters wrote. The man said Roth yelled at him, broke a vase in the backyard and pushed over their barbecue. He reported that she also broke the TV remote control. The man said he was sitting in the living room when Roth came out of the bedroom with her handgun. She was yelling at him to get out of the house. He stood up and she fired the gun, court papers said. The bullet lodged in the front doorjamb. Roth allegedly admitted that she “blew up” at her husband and pointed the gun at his chest. She said she pulled the trigger but missed. Roth had a warrant for her arrest for a drunken driving conviction out of Chelan County, Walters wrote. She doesn’t have any other criminal history.

MILL CREEK — It’s a cold case, but it wasn’t exactly cold cuts. An unusual crime was discovered May 17 at the Blazing Onion restaurant in Mill Creek

Town Center. A thief hit the freezer, making off with more than $600 worth of meat. “There don’t appear to be any suspects at this time,” Mill Creek police officer Ian Durkee said. Overnight, someone pried

open an outdoor freezer, breaking the lock and the handle, restaurant manager Doug Nilson said. The freezer is about the size of a small shed. The stolen meats included beef steak, buffalo, wild boar, lamb and chicken, he said. “It’s a little odd,” he said.

Treasurer: Tuition cut proposal could hurt prepaid plan Associated Press SEATTLE — The state treasurer says a plan by Senate Republicans to cut college tuition could hurt Washington’s prepaid college-tuition program, but lawmakers say his criticism is politically motivated. Treasurer James McIntire expressed his “deep concerns” about the plan to decrease tuition at the state’s colleges and universities in a letter he sent to

lawmakers Monday, The Seattle Times reported. McIntire said the tuition cut could leave the state vulnerable to lawsuits from investors in the Guaranteed Education Tuition program. Republican lawmakers say McIntire’s letter was politically motivated and the Democrat is playing politics. McIntire said it would be nearly impossible to manage the prepaid tuition fund, Washington’s 529

college savings plan, if the state starts setting tuition based on inflation. “The program, the statutes, the contract — everything about that program was designed around tuition going up,” McIntire said in an interview Monday. “If all of a sudden you have a decline, do we know if that’s a onetime effect, or not?” McIntire serves on both the State Investment Board, which invests the money, and the GET

committee, which manages the program. He said he wrote the letter out of a sense of fiduciary responsibility for GET. Sen. John Braun, R-Centralia, the chief architect of the plan to cut tuition, said he was disappointed by McIntire’s letter and pointed out that state Actuary Matt Smith’s analysis showed the proposal could make GET more financially sound because tuition hikes would grow more slowly.

“We are doing things that fundamentally help GET holders,” Braun said. GET is sold in increments called units, and 100 units are guaranteed to be equal to a year of tuition and fees at the state’s most expensive public university at any given time. The 17-year-old staterun program is a way of prepaying for college tuition, but investors pay a premium in exchange for the guarantee. Currently, one GET unit costs

$172 and can be redeemed for $117. A new price and payout value is set annually. If tuition is cut, the payout value of each unit would also be cut.

Olympia man dies in small plane crash in remote Alaska By Rachel D’Oro Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — The body of a missing Yute Air pilot was found inside the upside down wreckage of a small plane that had just been equipped with a new engine, Alaska State Troopers said Tuesday. Responders tentatively identified the body found in the Cessna 207 on Monday as Blaze Highlander, 47, of Olympia. The aircraft

was found in the Kwethluk River about 40 miles southeast of Bethel, but challenging conditions are slowing efforts to recover the submerged body and wreckage. Highlander, who survived an earlier Yute Air plane crash, was last seen leaving Bethel on Saturday morning. Troopers said he was breaking in a new engine for the plane. He was the only person on board.

The wreckage was spotted by another Yute Air pilot Sunday evening, but recovery efforts have been stymied by adverse weather and river conditions. Responders on the scene found the plane in pieces and submerged in up to 8 feet of water, according to Clint Johnson, head of the National Transportation Safety Board’s Alaska office. “This is a very fast-moving river,” Johnson said. “And when there’s a fair amount

of rain upstream, there’s pretty much a wall of water.” Johnson said it’s unclear if the plane broke apart because of the impact or the river conditions, Johnson said. Yute Air’s Bethel station manager Andrew Flagg referred questions to company operations manager Dan Knesek, who did not immediately respond to requests for comment Tuesday. In December 2011,

Highlander survived a plane crash near Kwigillingok, escaping with only minor injuries. Highlander was the only person on board the Yute Air-owned Cessna 207 when the crash occurred about 80 miles southwest of Bethel. The cause of that crash was determined by the NTSB to be the pilot’s decision to continue flying in bad weather that iced up the wings. It’s too early to say what caused the weekend

crash, which occurred when the weather was clear and calm, at least in Bethel, according to Johnson. He said weather is not a top priority in the investigation at this point. NTSB investigations also look at pilot error and mechanical problems as possible causes. Yute Air serves more than 22 communities in the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region of southwest Alaska, providing scheduled air service and charters.

Husband of pregnant woman killed in crash sues for millions PORTLAND, Ore. — The husband and the son of a pregnant woman who died in a rollover crash seek up to $18 million in a wrongful death lawsuit filed against three businesses, including the maker of a tire that blew during an Oregon family’s

trip through eastern Iowa two years ago. Attorneys for the plaintiffs, Heriberto Barajas and his 5-year-old son, Eric Barajas, allege that Continental Tire manufactured and distributed a tire that was “defective and unreasonably dangerous.” The suit filed Monday in Oregon also names the owner

of a Portland dealership that sold the vehicle less than two weeks before the crash and a business that performed maintenance. “Tires that are safely designed, and within the tread life, do not separate and fail,” attorney Douglas P. Oh-Keith said. “This tire was unreasonably dangerous and should not have

been sold. As a result, a young man has lost his wife and baby, and a little boy will grow up without his mother.” Jochen Eitzel, the chief executive of South Carolina-based Continental Tire, the Americas, did not return a message seeking comment Tuesday. The company’s global headquarters are in Germany. The crash happened June 22, 2013, as eight members of a family returned from Chicago. Oh-Keith said they had visited Heriberto

Barajas’ cancer-stricken grandfather. An Iowa State Patrol crash report said eight people were in a 2003 Ford Expedition when a rear tire deflated, causing the driver to lose control on I-80 in Cedar County. The vehicle rolled multiple times, killing 21-year-old Ivon Carina Barajas-Orozco and injuring the other seven occupants, the Quad-City Times reported at the time. The lawsuit seeks compensation for medical expenses plus millions for the emotional distress of watching Barajas-Orozco’s death. Moreover, the suit asks a jury to award Heriberto Barajas up to $3 million for the death of the unborn child. His wife was seven months pregnant.

The Ford was driven by Maria Isabel Barajas Ballines. She bought the vehicle less than two weeks before the crash, and it had mismatched tires — three Goodyears and the Continental, the lawsuit states. Attorneys allege Continental didn’t adequately warn about “the propensity of the tire to experience a sudden and catastrophic separation of the tread from the tire carcass.” It also claims Neri Auto Sales shouldn’t have sold a vehicle with mismatched tires, and the Continental tire was too old to be on the road. The owner of Neri Auto Sales, Francisco Lopez, did not return a phone message. The dot code for the tire shows it was manufactured in August 2003, making it almost 10 years old at the time of the crash, according to a database maintained by Tire Safety Group, a consumer-advocacy organization. The database shows the tire in question has not been involved in a recall. In 2011, Continental Tire recalled 390,000 truck tires, most of which are used as original tires on 2008-2009 Ford F-250 and F-350 trucks. The company said some of the tires could experience uneven wear, vibration or separation between the belt edges in cases where the truck is overloaded or underinflated.

What is Recycling?

Recycling

means taking something old and turning it into something new!

It’s the process of turning waste into a resource, whether it’s a new water bottle, a backpack, or materials to build a new playground. Recycling is collecting items like paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum and plastic, then taking them to a recycling center where they are processed. These materials are sorted at the recycling center and then purchased by manufacturers who use them to make new products.

Concerns remain for ‘Viagra for women’ Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The makers of a pill intended to boost sexual desire in women will try again this week to persuade regulators that the drug warrants approval after two rejections. But a new review released by the Food and Drug Administration shows government scientists still have concerns about whether the drug’s benefits outweigh its risks. The FDA review highlights several safety issues with flibanserin, including low blood pressure and fainting spells. Those problems increased when patients

prevent “any inference of favoritism or undue influence.” Seattle-based 1Energy is the project manager for three energy-storage prototypes and is providing software to control enormous battery systems connected to the PUD’s electric grid. The company’s contracts with the PUD to date are worth as much $16.2 million. Grants from the state Department of Commerce’s Clean Energy Fund cover $9.3 million of that cost, the ethics report says. State officials also are looking into 1Energy’s relationship with the Commerce Department. Two former Commerce officials now are executives at 1Energy. In March, the PUD’s Board of Commissioners hired Seattle attorney Colleen Kinerk of Cable, Langenbach, Kinerk and Bauer to investigate allegations by another PUD employee that district leaders steered lucrative no-bid contracts to 1Energy. The PUD is taking the investigator’s findings seriously, said Anne Spangler, the district’s interim general manager. “The

combined the drug with alcohol and some other medications, according to the document. A panel of FDA experts will discuss the drug at a public meeting Thursday, before voting on whether to recommend its approval. The ongoing saga of Sprout Pharmaceutical’s much-debated drug illustrates the complex politics and science surrounding women’s sexuality. For decades, drugmakers have tried unsuccessfully to develop a female equivalent to Viagra, the blockbuster drug that treats men’s erectile dysfunction by increasing blood flow. But disorders of women’s

sexual desire have proven resistant to drugs that act on blood flow, hormones and other simple biological functions. Supporters of Sprout’s drug say women’s sexual disorders have been long overlooked by the FDA. But critics argue that drug development efforts like Sprout’s medicalize women’s sexual problems, which are often related to stress, relationship issues and other life circumstances. “There are certainly women who have low libido and are distressed by it,” says Dr. Adriane Fugh-Berman, an associate professor at Georgetown University. “But for those

women therapy is the best solution, because this is not a medical disease.” Other critics say they would support a safe and effective drug for treating women’s libido problems, but none has yet emerged. “If a company could show that a drug is effective based on clinically significant outcome measurements, then we’d be for it,” says Cindy Pearson, executive director of the National Women’s Health Network. Flibanserin is the first drug to approach the issue through brain chemistry. Originally studied as an antidepressant, the pill was repurposed as a libido treatment after women in

company studies reported higher levels of sexual satisfaction. But the FDA has twice rejected the drug because of lackluster effectiveness and side effects including fatigue, dizziness and nausea. Clinicians who helped study flibanserin point out that they already prescribe other antidepressants without FDA approval to treat sexual desire disorders. They argue that those drugs, including Wellbutrin and Viibryd, carry worse side effects than flibanserin, such as agitation and seizures. “We use them all the time for female sexual dysfunction,” says Dr. James Simon, a gynecologist who

helped conduct several key studies of flibanserin. “The problem is that the side effect profile for doses that are effective for increasing desire and orgasm can be very high.” Simon says the lack of an FDA-approved option for female sexual dysfunction means doctors must balance issues of safety and lack of insurance coverage while trying to help patients. It’s not entirely clear how flibanserin increases desire, but researchers point to its ability to boost dopamine — a brain chemical associated with appetite — while lowering serotonin, which is linked to feelings of satiation.

conclusion is that this is an appearance problem, and it’s a lesson learned.” In a written statement, Kaplan said of the report: “1Energy looks forward to the opportunity to work with the PUD to address an appearances of conflict moving forward.” The report explains how Kaplan came to be an integral part of the PUD’s effort to be an early innovator in the energy-storage-systems market. Kaplan was a successful project manager and program developer at Microsoft. After that, he got into the emerging so-called clean-energy tech field. He started a company called V-2 Green, which developed a platform to connect electric cars to power grids. After selling the company, he became a consultant for the state Department of Commerce in 2009. He met the PUD’s thenCEO and general manager, Steve Klein, through his work. The two “shared a mutual fascination with technology, innovation and clean energy,” the report states. “They also lived in close proximity and would periodically take walks together during which they discussed these shared interests.” Kaplan told PUD leaders that he wanted to learn about a utility’s operations from the inside, the

report says. In April 2010, several months after he left the state Department of Commerce, Kaplan joined the PUD as a shortterm employee, making $193,440 a year. First, he successfully helped the PUD improve information technology, the report says. He was a member of executive leadership and reported directly to Klein, who let him work a flexible schedule and continue consulting for outside clients so long as it didn’t conflict with his work at the PUD, the report says. Kaplan had another reason for joining the PUD, according to the report. He made it clear to Klein and other executives that he “came to the Utility for the express purpose of identifying a business opportunity.” He “brought skills of considerable value” to the district, the report says. In return, Kaplan learned about utility operations and was paid as an employee to research energy storage and attend conferences about it. He sought to use “that learning opportunity and his contacts with the utility’s CEO and some senior executives for his own financial gain,” the report says. In the summer of 2011, while still a district

employee, he “actively sought a contract” between 1Energy and the PUD, the report says. Kaplan took steps to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest, such as using private email when representing 1Energy. But those measures were insufficient, wrote Kinerk, the report’s author. The PUD, too, failed to take adequate steps to avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest, as required by agency policy, she wrote. That policy, called Directive No. 90, says that “employees and supervisors must take measures to prevent either actual conflicts or the appearance of conflicts of interest” and must resolve any situations consistent with the policy. While the policy prohibits employees from pursuing outside interests that conflict with PUD interests, “there are times when those outside interests do not conflict with the district’s interests,” said Spangler, the PUD’s interim general manager, in an interview Tuesday. Spangler took over in May after Klein retired following nine years at the PUD. He announced his retirement in February, before the ethics allegations were public. Before her current role, Spangler was the district’s general counsel.

Kaplan’s interests and the PUD’s interests, Spangler said, were aligned and did not conflict. “Where it becomes the appearance of a conflict here is that profit motive” that Kaplan had as owner of 1Energy while also working at the PUD, Spangler said. “The appearance of a conflict comes when those two roles are lined up while he’s still an employee. And once he’s no longer an employee, then you don’t have the appearance of a conflict.” Kaplan left the PUD at the end of July 2011. The following September, the three elected commissioners approved a research-and-development contract worth up to $800,000 for 1Energy. He was the company’s sole employee at the time. Once the contract was approved, he began hiring others, the report says. Before the first contract ended, it was superceded by a second — initially worth up to $3.5 million and ultimately up to $4.3 million — to develop and install a battery prototype. Electricity storage involves adding huge batteries to the power grid, which in theory would enable a utility to more efficiently handle fluctuations in demand. In addition to increased efficiency, advocates say, the technology

promises a way to make greater use of wind, solar and other forms of green power. Except for the appearance of a conflict related to the first contract, the investigator said she did not find violations of PUD policy or state laws regarding 1Energy contracts. But the first contract set the foundation for the follow-on work, said Anthony Curtis, the employee who filed the ethics complaint. Kaplan “used that as a stepping stone to millions of dollars. This whole pyramid was built on Kaplan working at the PUD and that first contract.” Klein, the recently retired PUD general manager, issued a lengthy statement Tuesday in which he criticized Curtis, calling his complaint “a deliberate attempt to undermine support for the PUD’s successful policies and destroy the reputation of the elected commissioners and senior staff.” Curtis said that he doesn’t question 1Energy’s qualifications or the benefit of the project for the PUD. “I’m in support of all the things we are doing. It’s not about the product or the people, it’s about the process.” Dan Catchpole: 425339-3454; dcatchpole@ heraldnet.com; Twitter: @ dcatchpole.

lumber industry. “Mills were a really big part of the city’s early history,” he said. “It’s the end of an era for us.” The recession caused havoc with the building industry locally and nationally. The

Seattle-Snohomish Mill shut down for eight months in 2012 and continued to struggle after reopening. The housing market has shown signs of a comeback, but it’s been slow. Snohomish County issued 3,731 building permits for residential units in 2006.

That dropped to 1,362 during the recession in 2010. Last year, the county issued 2,034 building permits. Meanwhile, there’s a glut of lumber on the market, McMurray said. In 2013, the most recent year for which the state Department of Natural

Resources has data, private companies harvested roughly 3.1 million board feet of timber in Washington. That’s well above the 2.2 million board feet harvested in 2009. Many companies have closed mills, laid off workers or cut their hours in response to the market. Since 2007, 10 lumber companies in Washington have filed notices with the state of pending employee layoffs or mill closures, according the Employment Security Department. Shelton’s Simpson Lumber Co. is closing June 25, leaving 275 employees without work. Darrington’s Hampton Lumber Mill laid off 76 workers in in 2011 and Woodinville Lumber closed, leaving another 76 people without work. Workforce Snohomish is working with the city and Seattle-Snohomish Mill to see what help can be offered to laid-off

employees to find new jobs. McMurray is a fourthgeneration owner of the mill. She took over as president from her father, Bob Waltz, two years ago. She praised her employees, some of whom have worked with her father and her grandfather. “I’ve been so thankful that we’ve had such a good group of employees,” McMurray said “We have some guys who have 40 years with the company. That’s a big deal to me.” While she’s looking at her options, McMurray doesn’t see herself ever reopening the Seattle-Snohomish Mill again. “This is permanent for me, I’m not looking to come back,” McMurray said. “The goal would be to see this place be a sawmill and run in some capacity, but I would not be involved. I just don’t see it.” Amy Nile: 425-339-3192; anile@heraldnet.com. Twitter: @AmyNileReports.

The story behind your local neighborhood business.

Kings knows heating and air conditioning business in 1993, at which time the transformation from Pollard to Kings began. In keeping with tradition, Kings is a family owned and operated business, just as Pollard Heating was. Pollard’s wife, brother, daughter, and a son work with him, with his youngest son joining the family business after he graduates. Pollard considers himself a problem solver. It can be a challenge when a previous, and sometimes less-experienced, contractor does an unsatisfactory job and leaves a mess for Pollard to untangle. However, Pollard takes the opportunity to implement a new system, fix the problem and create a happy customer. “I love solving a heating or cooling problem a customer has had for a long time, and they call to tell me they are comfortable now,” he said. With the weather warming up, Pollard advises getting air conditioners installed and systems updated before you find yourself struggling to sleep at night. As with so many other aspects of life, it is easier to maintain proper service before a problem arises. Popular knowledge dictates you should change the oil of a car to prevent sludging and brush your teeth regularly to prevent cavities. Likewise, Pollard recom-

mends regular maintenance of your heating and cooling system to ensure long-term efficiency. “If you take good care of your central heating and air conditioning equipment the system will last longer. Your hot water heating and fireplace will also last longer if you have it cleaned and serviced on a regular basis,” he said.

In addition to suggested maintenance schedules and troubleshooting problem areas, Pollard has some advice for staying cool during the summer. Air conditioner temperatures should be set in the morning, before the sun starts roasting the house. The system will have an easier time regulating temperature if it does so at a steady pace, throughout

t’s nearly summer and that means it’s time to turn up the heat, or perhaps the air conditioning would be more appropriate. Either way, Kings Heating and Air Conditioning is a full-service HVAC company with the sole purpose of serving heating and cooling needs. “We are the King of heat, not a Jack-of-all-trades,” said Gary Pollard, owner. Prospective clients won’t be offered windows, insulation, roofing or the kitchen sink when they walk into Kings, Pollard said. The Kings business model is based around dependability and expert knowledge on what they know best — heating and cooling systems. “Our mission is to provide our clients with a dependable company. We pledge to help our employees to excel and succeed in delivering a positive experience for the team member and the customer,” Pollard said. Doing so comes naturally for Pollard because he’s been in the industry his entire life but the unofficial tally puts him at about 35 years of experience. His father opened Pollard Heating in 1973 and Pollard began working with him at the age of 9. He graduated from Ingraham High School and then took over his father’s

Lynnwood From Page A3

found fault in city finances for the past eight years in a row. Last year, now under review, was Smith’s first in office. The mayor Tuesday also announced the hire of a new finance director, Sonja Springer, who previously worked for Mountlake Terrace. Efforts also are under way to redesign the process for people getting business licenses, Smith said. “I can’t wait to share the results from that,” she said. In parks news, the city has acquired the 13-acre Seabrook Heights property. The environmentally

sensitive area had been slated for development. A trail also is being designed that would stretch from City Center to Meadowdale Beach Park. All Lynnwood parks are getting a lighting upgrade to LEDs, with an estimated 80 percent drop in energy consumption, the mayor said. Sewer improvements in town are ongoing to the tune of $40 million, and police continue to target nuisance properties and graffiti. The roundabout is going in this summer at the intersection of 204th Street SW and 68th Avenue W, at the south entrance to Edmonds Community

College. They’re aiming to wrap up before the fall quarter starts. Other construction projects in town include the new Costco and ringshaped road being built north of the mall, and two apartment complexes and a hotel going into City Center, where 196th Street SW meets I-5. Eventually, the idea is to have cars, walkers and bicyclists moving smoothly between the planned light rail station and the rest of the city. Smith remains hopeful for Lynnwood’s future, she said. “For so long, City Center felt like a dream, but it is beginning to become a reality,” she said. Rikki King: 425-3393449; rking@heraldnet. com.

Michael Ryman “Big Mike” Mike gave so much and asked for nothing in return; he only wanted to be a part o f yo u r l i fe . L ove d by s o many he was the kind of person without hesitation, that you could call day or night with any problem, big or small. The kind of person who would show up at the hospital wearing a big smile and smuggle in a thoughtful gif t, sitting as long as he was needed to brighten the moment. M a ny a n E d m o n d ’ s c e l l phone holds a photo of someone sitting with Mike enjoying one of his infamous hot dog creations. A gourmet cook, Mike was famous for his grilled hot dogs, unique condiments and countless seafood dishes. A n a n i m a l l o v e r, M i k e raised all types of critters through his life.

Congress passes NSA records bill By Erica Werner Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Congress approved sweeping changes Tuesday to surveillance laws enacted after the Sept. 11 attacks, eliminating the National Security Agency’s disputed bulk phone-records collection program and replacing it with a more restrictive measure to keep the records in phone companies’ hands. Two days after Congress let the phone-records collection and several other anti-terror programs expire, the Senate’s 67-32 vote sent the legislation to President Barack Obama, who signed it Tuesday night. The legislation will revive most of the programs the

Senate had allowed to lapse in a dizzying collision of presidential politics and national security policy. But the authorization will undergo major changes, the legacy of agency contractor Edward Snowden’s explosive revelations two years ago about domestic spying by the government. In an unusual shifting of alliances, the legislation passed with the support of Obama and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, but over the strong opposition of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. McConnell failed to persuade the Senate to extend the current law unchanged, and came up short in a last-ditch effort Tuesday to amend the House version, as nearly a dozen of his

own Republicans abandoned him in a series of votes. “This is a step in the wrong direction,” a frustrated McConnell said ahead of the Senate’s final vote to approve the House version, dubbed the USA Freedom Act. He said the legislation “does not enhance the privacy protections of American citizens. And it surely undermines American security by taking one more tool from our warfighters at exactly the wrong time.” The legislation remakes the most controversial aspect of the USA Patriot Act — the once-secret bulk collection program that allows the National Security Agency to sweep up Americans’ phone records and comb through

them for ties to international terrorists. Over six months the NSA would lose the power to collect and store those records, but the government still could gain court orders to obtain data connected to specific numbers from the phone companies, which typically store them for 18 months. It would also continue other post-9/11 surveillance provisions that lapsed Sunday night, and which are considered more effective than the phonedata collection program. These include the FBI’s authority to gather business records in terrorism and espionage investigations and to more easily eavesdrop on suspects who are discarding cellphones to avoid surveillance.

FBI behind mysterious low-flying aircraft By Jack Gillum, Eileen Sullivan and Eric Tucker Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Scores of low-flying planes circling American cities are part of a civilian air force operated by the FBI and obscured behind fictitious companies, The Associated Press has learned. The AP traced at least 50 aircraft back to the FBI, and identified more than 100 flights in 11 states over a 30-day period since late April, orbiting both major cities and rural areas. At least 115 planes, including 90 Cessna aircraft, were mentioned in a federal budget document from 2009. For decades, the planes have provided support to FBI surveillance operations on the ground. But now the aircraft are equipped with high-tech cameras, and in rare circumstances, technology capable of tracking thousands of cellphones, raising questions about how these surveillance flights affect Americans’ privacy. “It’s important that federal law enforcement personnel have the tools they need to find and catch criminals,” said Charles Grassley, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. “But whenever an operation may also monitor the activities of Americans who are not the intended target, we must make darn sure that safeguards are in place to protect the civil liberties of innocent Americans.” The FBI says the planes are not equipped or used for bulk collection activities or mass surveillance. The equipment is used for ongoing investigations, the FBI says, generally without a judge’s approval.

ANDREW HARNIK / ASSOCIATED PRESS

A small plane flies near Manassas Regional Airport in Manassas, Virginia, on May 26. The plane is among a fleet of surveillance aircraft operated by the FBI.

The FBI confirmed for the first time the wide-scale use of the aircraft, which the AP traced to at least 13 fake companies, such as FVX Research, KQM Aviation, NBR Aviation and PXW Services. “The FBI’s aviation program is not secret,” spokesman Christopher Allen said in a statement. “Specific aircraft and their capabilities are protected for operational security purposes.” The front companies are used to protect the safety of the pilots, the agency said. That setup also shields the identity of the aircraft so that suspects on the ground don’t know they’re being followed. The FBI is not the only federal law enforcement agency to take such measures. The Drug Enforcement Administration has its own planes, also registered to fake companies, according to a 2011 Justice Department inspector general report. And since 2007, the U.S. Marshals Service has

operated an aerial surveillance program with its own fleet, the Wall Street Journal reported last year. Basic aspects of the FBI’s program are withheld from the public in censored versions of official reports from the Justice Department’s inspector general, and the FBI also has been careful not to reveal its surveillance flights in court documents. The agency will not say how many planes are in its fleet. The planes are equipped with technology that can capture video of unrelated criminal activity on the ground that could be handed over to prosecutions. One of the planes, photographed in flight last week by the AP in northern Virginia, carried unusual antennas under its fuselage and a camera on its left side. Some of the aircraft can also be equipped with technology that can identify thousands of people below through the cellphones they carry, even if

they’re not making a call or in public. Officials said that practice, which mimics cell towers and gets phones to reveal basic subscriber information, is used in only limited situations. “These are not your grandparents’ surveillance aircraft,” said Jay Stanley, a senior policy analyst with the American Civil Liberties Union. Stanley said the flights are significant “if the federal government is maintaining a fleet of aircraft whose purpose is to circle over American cities, especially with the technology we know can be attached to those aircraft.” The Justice Department recently published a privacy policy for its agencies’ use of drones and unmanned aircraft systems. But that policy does not apply to piloted aircraft. Those rules, which are heavily redacted in publicly available documents, limit the types of equipment the agency can use, as well as the justifications and duration of the surveillance. During the past few weeks, the AP tracked planes from the FBI’s fleet on more than 100 flights over at least 11 states plus the District of Columbia. The areas included Seattle. The FBI asked the AP not to disclose the names of the fake companies it uncovered, saying that would saddle taxpayers with the expense of creating new cover companies to shield the government’s involvement, and could endanger the planes and integrity of the surveillance missions. The AP declined the FBI’s request because the companies’ names — as well as common addresses linked to the Justice Department — are listed on public documents and in government databases.

New allegations of CIA torture surface By Ben Fox Associated Press

MIAMI — A former Maryland resident imprisoned at Guantanamo was subjected to mistreatment while in CIA custody far in excess of what has previously been disclosed, including being hung from a wooden beam for three days and kept in total darkness for nearly a year, a legal organization that represents him said Wednesday. Some details about the treatment of Majid Khan in the clandestine CIA detention center emerged in December when the Senate intelligence committee released a summary of a classified report critical of the agency’s treatment of prisoners suspected of involvement with al-Qaida following the Sept. 11 terrorist attack. But the Center for Constitutional Rights, an organization representing Khan and others held at Guantanamo, said that the mistreatment was far more extensive and that it can be publicly released now because the government has determined some details are no

longer considered classified. Khan, 35, is awaiting sentencing at the U.S. base in Cuba on charges that include conspiracy, murder and attempted murder for aiding al-Qaida. He pleaded guilty before a military commission in a deal that calls for a sentence of between 19 and 25 years, instead of life in prison, in exchange for cooperating in the prosecution of other cases. Wells Dixon, his attorney, said Pentagon officials should

reduce his sentence because of the mistreatment, which they would be permitted to do under the military commission legal system. “He was tortured in ways that exceed even what was disclosed in the Senate report and that needs to be taken into account when he’s sentenced,” Dixon said. The allegations of mistreatment, contained in years of previously classified notes taken by his lawyers, include

being submerged in icy water during interrogations twice, in May and July 2003. A CIA spokesman said Tuesday that Khan was not one of the three prisoners subjected to the simulated drowning technique known as waterboarding. Khan also told his lawyers that he was sexually assaulted, including with forced enemas, and hung on a wooden beam for days on end. He said he was also kept in total darkness, with only a bucket for a toilet, for nearly a year in 2003, beaten and held in a cell with bugs that bit him. Records indicate Khan had already agreed to answer questions before the treatment, Dixon said. “The torture in addition to being inherently unlawful was gratuitous.” The CIA declined to comment in depth on the new allegations, referring to a previous critique of the Senate report in which the agency acknowledged some flaws with its detention and interrogation program but disputed the broader claim that it failed to produce significant intelligence or to disrupt plots.

ACROSS THE U.S.

Californians drop water use 13.5 percent SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Californians are using less water, but they’ll have to conserve a lot more to achieve the mandatory cuts taking effect this month, according to the latest numbers released Tuesday. California residents reduced overall water usage by 13.5 percent compared to the same month in the benchmark year of 2013, water officials said. That falls short of the 25 percent cuts Gov. Jerry Brown made mandatory for cities and towns as of Monday.

Utah: 4 dead in sinking A ski boat capsized amid violent winds and huge waves on a lake spanning the Utah-Idaho border, killing four people and leaving three hospitalized, a Utah sheriff said Tuesday. All seven people in the boat — two adults, four teenage girls and a 7-year-old girl — were thrown into the 53-degree water when it overturned Monday on Bear Lake. They were in the water for at least two hours. One of the adults, a man, died at the scene. Three of the girls were flown to Salt Lake City, where they died.

Fla.: Submarine recordings A Navy sailor pleaded guilty Tuesday to secretly videotaping female trainees as they undressed for showers aboard a submarine, becoming the fourth crew member of the USS Wyoming to be sentenced to prison in a case that has tarnished the U.S. military’s integration of women into its submarine fleet. A court-martial at Mayport Naval Station sentenced Petty Officer 3rd Class Cody Shoemaker, 22, to 18 months in prison and a bad-conduct discharge. The missile technician told a military judge that he used a cellphone to record female midshipmen from a tight crawlspace that looked into the shower area from beneath a sink. Three other sailors pleaded guilty in the case last week and three more are still awaiting trial.

Mass.: Kerry has surgery Doctors completed surgery Tuesday on Secretary of State John Kerry’s broken leg at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. State Department spokesman John Kirby said Kerry was in good condition and was resting after doctors set his leg. Kerry was injured when he struck a curb and fell on a regular Tour de France route located southeast of Geneva.

AROUND THE WORLD China: 400 still missing from capsized cruise ship Hope dimmed Wednesday for rescuing more than 400 people trapped aboard a capsized river cruise ship that overturned in stormy weather about 36 hours earlier, as hundreds of rescuers searched the Yangtze River site in what could become the deadliest Chinese maritime accident in decades. Chinese state broadcaster CCTV reported that 13 bodies had been pulled from the boat. A total of fourteen people have been rescued, but the vast majority of the 456 people on board, many of them elderly tourists, were unaccounted for. The Eastern Star was traveling Monday night from Nanjing to Chongqing when it overturned during a cyclone.

Tanzania: Ivory poaching A wildlife conservation group says the sharp decline of the elephant population in Tanzania, most likely due to poaching, is catastrophic. The government Monday estimated that 65,721 elephants have died in the country in the past six years. The wildlife conservation group TRAFFIC says at least 45 tons of ivory have flowed from Tanzania to markets in Asia since 2009.

Canada: ‘Genocide’ report A long-awaited report released Tuesday into Canada’s decades-long government policy requiring Canadian First Nation children to attend state-funded church schools called it “nothing less than cultural genocide.” The report by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission is the result of a six-year study of former government policy requiring Canadian aboriginals to attend the schools, often the scenes of physical and sexual abuse. First Nation leaders have cited the legacy of abuse and isolation as the root cause of epidemic substance abuse on reservations. From Herald news services

Groups sue to block Shell in Arctic By Dan Joling Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Ten environmental groups Tuesday sued a federal agency over its approval of a plan by Royal Dutch Shell PLC for exploratory petroleum drilling off Alaska’s northwest coast. The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management last month signed off on Shell’s exploratory drilling plan in the Chukchi Sea, which calls for two drill rigs and a

support flotilla that includes spillresponse vessels. Drilling in the Arctic Ocean region is opposed by environmental groups that contend oil companies are not equipped to deal with a major blowout or spill in a part of the world lacking deep-water ports, major airports and other infrastructure routinely present in other drilling areas. They also say drilling will harm wildlife already hurt by the effects of climate warming. The groups say federal

regulators’ review of the Shell exploratory drilling plan was cursory. “They approved this massive industrial undertaking — with two drill ships, 19 support vessels, helicopters, all operating in really important walrus habitat and habitat for bowhead and gray whales — on a 30-day, rushed timeframe, with just an environmental assessment and a conclusion that there would be no significant impact,” said Erik Grafe, an attorney for

Earthjustice, which is representing the groups. “The whole thing was rushed, and it’s not surprising that there are flaws in the analysis.” Shell spokesman Curtis Smith, reached by phone in Washington, D.C., said the lawsuit was not a surprise. “We expect all aspect of our plans, including our leases and permits, to be challenged in court by many of the same organizations that have historically See SHELL, Page A12

MONTREAL — At the Paris Air Show this month, the largest and oldest of its kind, Bombardier’s Alain Bellemare is going all out to display his newest jet — with plans to send one streaking through the French sky above the assembled aviation executives. It’s still going to be a tough sale. The chief executive officer’s challenge is wooing carriers that rely on Boeing or Airbus Group, and increasingly prefer planes

larger than Bombardier’s. The CSeries jet is more than two years late, orders trail forecasts and the few buyers are mostly tiny operators such as Iraqi Airways or AirBaltic. At stake is whether Bellemare, 53, can revive Montreal-based Bombardier after CSeries cost overruns led to a 2014 loss, the first in almost a decade at the maker of aircraft and subway cars. While Bellemare has moved to stabilize Bombardier since becoming CEO in February, now he has to kindle interest

By Anne D’innocenzio NEW YORK — Wal-Mart is raising starting wages for more than 100,000 U.S. department managers and workers in its deli and other specialized departments. The moves mark the next wave of pay raises by the nation’s largest private employer, which has been under pressure from labor-backed groups for the treatment of its workers. In February, it announced it was increasing minimum wages for entry-level and long-term hourly employees to at least $10 an hour by February. That increase affected 500,000 of its 1.3 million U.S. workers. The wage hikes are part of a $1 billion program at Wal-Mart that also includes improving training and offering employees more control of their schedules. The company is hoping that by investing in its workers, its customer service will improve, and ultimately that will encourage shoppers to spend more, helping to perk up sluggish U.S. sales. In February, Wal-Mart said it would be raising wages for its department managers but didn’t offer many details. Wal-Mart said late Monday that department managers of complex and service-oriented jobs in areas like produce, electronics and auto care, will start at $13 per hour and top out at $24.70 per hour, beginning next month. Starting next February, they will be paid at least $15 per hour. Previously, the pay range was from $10.30 to $20.09. Managers of less-complicated departments like clothing, and consumer products like paper towels, will earn from $10.90 to $20.71 per hour. Previously, they earned from $9.90 to $19.31.

A reportable keno win also could be lowered. The threshold for that game is now $1,500. As of Tuesday, the agency received more than 3,000 comments, many opposed to the change.

Bombardier: CSeries is 10 years, $5.4B in development From Page A11

Just getting to Paris would be a CSeries milestone after missing the 2014 European show in Farnborough, England. The test fleet sat parked in Canada, grounded for three months by an engine fire less than a year into flight trials. Bombardier has worked on the CSeries for about 10 years and expects development spending to be $5.4 billion, $1 billion more than it estimated a year earlier. The smaller version, carrying 108 to 125 people, lists for $63 million, while the 160-seater is $72 million. They are expected to

then use the repulsor to fire missiles, shoot beams and raise shields. Children must physically jump or hide to dodge incoming attacks in order to progress and earn points. Two sensor-laden base stations called “power activators” serve as stands for figurines, which pop off when they’ve sustained enough damage. The first so-called “smart figures” are miniature versions of Captain America and villain Iron Skull. Infrared and other sensors inside the armband and base stations help determine whether shots hit the target and if players dodged or hid successfully. If players fail to dodge well, a buzz inside the armband represents getting hit. For now, up to two players can go on missions together or play against each other. Adding further players to the system is being planned for the future.

enter service in 2016. For all of that time and money, Bombardier has booked 243 firm orders. That’s fewer than half as many planes as Boeing sold in a six-month period ended in April, and short of Bombardier’s target of 300 by the time the CSeries enters service in 2016’s first half. Only one of the 14 firm buyers, Deutsche Lufthansa AG, ranks among the world’s top 20 by passenger traffic. Lufthansa’s CSeries planes won’t even sport its livery. The airline will use them at its Swiss unit. The delays have meant

a loss of some sales. In March, Qatar Airways CEO Akbar Al Baker, who seven years ago predicted an eventual order of 20 aircraft, told Bloomberg News he had given up after too many delays. “You cannot wait for the CSeries indefinitely,” he said. Many investors have reached a similar conclusion since Bombardier committed to build the plane in 2008. The widely traded Class B shares have tumbled 55 percent, while a benchmark gauge of Canadian industrial stocks zoomed 79 percent. The new CEO’s appointment on Feb. 12 hasn’t

The suggested retail price for the initial package is $120. Another package going on sale in November features Hulk hands — where the action focuses on airpunching and throwing imaginary objects. “Star Wars” themed packages will roll out in 2016, after “Star Wars: Episode 7 — The Force Awakens” debuts in December. “Frozen” packages will go on sale in 2017. Walt Disney Co. worked on the game over several years and tapped staff from numerous divisions, including storytellers from Marvel Studios, theme park Imagineers, video game programmers from Disney Interactive and elsewhere. Toymaker Hasbro Inc. manufactured the physical pieces. The challenge in creating a new toy concept was to engage kids who expect toys to have an online component, while nevertheless keeping them active and not just staring at a computer or tablet screen, said Kareem Daniel, senior vice president of strategy and

business development for Disney’s consumer products division. “The way that kids are playing is evolving,” he said. “We wanted to make active physical play more exciting.” Jim Silver, the CEO and editor of toy review website TTPM.com who also got an early look, said the product was a “breakthrough” because of the way it integrated technology and classic play patterns. He said there was nothing like it, noting that wearables typically have focused just on fitness. “Kids are aspirational, they want to become the heroes,” he said. “Parents will love that it’s classic play.” Silver said the price of the initial package, even with add-on figurines for $15, was reasonable given the amount of play and that further missions could be downloaded in the future. “Parents don’t mind spending $100 or $200 if they see it’s going to be played with over and over and it’s the type of play they want.”

arrested the slide; Bombardier is down 4.5 percent since then. Bellemare is scheduled to brief analysts and investors at a June 15 lunch meeting at the air show, analysts said. With new engines and materials, the jet will cut operating costs by 15 percent compared with competing aircraft, according to the company. “They have so much riding on the CSeries,” said John Stephenson, CEO of Toronto money manager Stephenson & Co. “They clearly bobbled it.” The Paris forum is an opportunity to make a good impression on the

used legal maneuvers to delay Arctic exploration,” he said. Shell for eight years has pursued exploratory drilling off Alaska, and its plans are arguably the most scrutinized in North American history, Smith said. “We believe this most recent exploration play is robust and will withstand further legal scrutiny,” he said. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management spokesman John Callahan said the agency was aware of the lawsuit. “Other than that, we cannot comment on pending litigation,” he said by email. Under rules governing offshore drilling, requests for review of agency approvals are filed in federal appeals court. The lawsuit was filed in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. In the filing Tuesday,

thousands of aviation executives, consultants and analysts converging on Le Bourget airport to schmooze in corporate chalets and catch the daily fly-bys. It’s a time for planemakers to seal deals— or start talks. Bombardier predicts 7,100 new jets seating 100 to 149 passengers will be delivered in the 20-year period ending in 2033, representing combined revenue of $465 billion. The CSeries will capture about half that market, according to forecasts by Bombardier executives. That projection is “very debatable,” said George

the groups were required only to request a review. Briefs outlining specific flaws in the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management’s review would be required later. The parties could request an expedited schedule. The environmental groups also could ask for an injunction to halt drilling in 2015 before the issue is resolved. The U.S. Geological Survey estimates there are more than 26 billion barrels of oil in the Alaska outer continental shelf, a source that could be moved by undersea and overland pipe to keep the trans-Alaska pipeline vital as other fields diminish. Shell was the most robust bidder in a 2008 Chukchi Sea lease sale, spending $2.1 billion on leases. Exploratory drilling was delayed in part by a lawsuit that successfully challenged environmental work done by the federal government before putting underwater tracts up for auction. Shell estimates it has

Ferguson, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence. Bombardier faces not only entrenched competitors but may be trying to sell a plane in a market segment that is dwindling, he said. Carriers such as Southwest Airlines Co. that rely on small narrow-body jets are “upsizing”— shifting to planes that seat more than 149 people rather than replacing their existing models, according to Ferguson. “Airlines are looking to improve economies of scale by increasing both aircraft size and the number of seats on an airplane,” Ferguson said.

spent upward of $7 billion on its Arctic offshore drilling program in U.S. waters. But the company has yet to complete an exploratory well that could confirm oil in profitable quantities. Shell has staged a drill vessel and a support fleet in Seattle in anticipation of exploratory drilling during the open-water season this summer. Shell last drilled in the Chukchi and Beaufort Seas in 2012. The vessels were not allowed to drill into petroleumbearing rock because the required equipment to respond to spills was not on hand. The groups suing include the Alaska Wilderness League, Center for Biological Diversity, Friends of the Earth, National Audubon Society, Natural Resources Defense Council, Northern Alaska Environmental Center, Pacific Environment, Resisting Environmental Destruction on Indigenous Lands, Sierra Club and The Wilderness Society.

IN OUR VIEW | State budget talks

Close gap with capital gains tax With little to show after one special session, legislators in Olympia have started the second by at least making their latest budget proposals public. And House Democrats and Senate Republicans have shown an understanding of compromise, with the Republicans coming up a bit in spending and Democrats cutting back from the earlier proposals. It also helps that, under the direction of Gov. Jay Inslee, House and Senate leaders are meeting daily with the governor to further negotiations. What separates them now are about $500 million in spending and whether to include a new tax in the revenue mix. House Democrats, in their budget proposal released Monday, came down several hundred million in spending and have also whacked back their tax package from $1.47 billion to $570 million, dropping all but a capital gains tax on investment income.

The capital gains tax proposal, which is unchanged from the Democrats’ earlier budget, would levy a 5 percent tax on the capital gains from investment income above $25,000 for individuals and $50,000 for couples filing jointly. The tax, which would apply to about 32,000 state residents, would exempt profits from retirement accounts and the sales of primary residences and would exempt agricultural and timber producers. The tax often is criticized as being prone to fluctuations of the economy and markets, but the Democrats say they have planned for that volatility by putting the tax’s first $400 million of anticipated revenue toward K-12 education, leaving the remaining revenue for a dedicated higher education fund that can better absorb fluctuations. Senate Republicans have maintained from the start that the budget could be balanced without new tax revenue or increases, even in the face

of the mandate to fully fund K-12 education. Their position was only galvanized when the latest revenue report in May showed a $415 million windfall. But a closer look at the Senate Republicans’ budget reveals some decisions that shift money from necessary programs and some optimistic revenue assumptions. Among the Republicans’ rosier — or is that greener? — predictions is that the state can expect $88.5 million in revenue from the sale of marijuana for the 201517 biennium, almost double the $45.4 million projected for the current 2013-15 biennium. More money from marijuana sales may be likely as more business shifts from medical cannabis to recreational, but the Democrats’ projection of $41.1 million seems better grounded in reality. The Senate Republicans also rely on shifting money from various programs in the operating and capital budgets. The House Democrats’ budget

uses transfers, too: $96.7 million. But the Senate Republicans move around more than $290 million, almost half of which would be a hit that cities would have to absorb. It transfers $24 million in liquor excise tax distributions that won’t go to cities and again empties out $100 million from a public works assistance account from which cities in the past have obtained low-interest loans on short notice for street repairs and other utility work. The Senate Republicans also are seeking to divert $29 million in tax revenue charged on insurance bought on the state’s health insurance exchange. That revenue now supports operation of the exchange. With its diversion, the costs for administration would be passed on to the consumer. The Republicans may have been correct that a $1.5 million tax package wasn’t necessary, but in resisting any tax, a tax on 32,000 who can afford it, they are passing on hidden costs to more of us.

worked, as it seems to in our society. The rise of Christianity shifted the loyalty of the people from their own emperor to a new deity, weakening the unity that Rome had once enjoyed. And finally, the barbarians, who were simply people who had been pushed out of their homelands by the Huns, petitioned to join the empire as equal partners, and be granted a small amount of land, but the Romans, believing themselves to be “exceptional” (where have we heard that?) would not deal with them, so the “barbarians” sacked the Roman cities and hastened the end to the already crumbling empire. The parallels between Rome and the U.S. are abundant, but none of them had anything to do with sexual preference. I often exhort my middle-schoolers to do their homework. It would be nice if letter writers could do the same.

his family has enjoyed for generations? My hope is that his heart would be open and accepting that everyone, no matter where they fall on the sexuality spectrum, has the right to love and be loved. Mr. Fisher may have “learned a lot about being a young man,” but I, for one, believe that being a quality human being means not discriminating against others, period.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■BOY SCOUTS

Try rethinking assumptions Letter writer Gary from Lake Stevens wrote a heartfelt letter admonishing the appointment of Robert Gates to President of the Boy Scouts. The letter writer leads with the fear that a gay leader must also be a pedophile. We would ask the writer, does he believe that since he is sexually attracted to women, he must also be attracted to young girls? Why would a Scout leader be any more attracted to a young boy? Does the writer believe either he or a gay scout leader could possibly find a lifelong, committed partner among a group of children? We doubt it, yet the writer leads with that premise. The letter writer reveals his misunderstanding — perhaps purposeful — of what a “choice” is. Let’s call it what it is: an act of making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities. We have yet to meet a gay person who had to “make a decision” about being gay. Did the writer “decide” to be straight? One of us was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland. Our question regarding The Herald’s article on the vote to legalize gay marriage there was, “why only half a page?” We are proud that Ireland now treats equally all people in loving, committed relationships. Negativity about Irish people was rarely printed, and they are now treated with dignity and respect. I did hear everything the writer had to say. I’m guessing the Herald didn’t “edit it as they please.” It was a remarkable letter, and we have simply made our own heartfelt observations. Oh, and that guy who told the writer about the fall of the Roman Empire needs a simple history lesson. Or Google. Jeffrey Roy Karen Dunne Everett

■■ROMAN EMPIRE

History tells real, fact-filled story Regarding the letter, “Must rethink Gates, gay leaders”: “A guy” told the writer that gay lifestyles caused the fall of the Roman Empire. Now there’s a strong source of info. I am a history teacher. There were many causes to the fall of Rome. Here are a few: The empire had overextended, and could not effectively manage the amount of territory it had conquered. Military expenses

In addition, not enough Romans could be found to staff the huge expansion of the military, and so Rome resorted to hiring people from the provinces they had conquered to fill out the ranks. Loyalty became an issue. Military leaders waged civil war on each other to fight for the position of emperor, as soon as they could assassinate the current one. Naturally, the people’s confidence in their government was shaken by this. Too many imported slaves caused a huge unemployment problem, which drove poverty to 95 percent of the population. The wealthy attempted to distract the poor by presenting them with grandiose gladiatorial games. For a while that

■■BOY SCOUTS

Equality a value of our country Regarding the letter, “Must rethink Gates, gay leaders”: I am the proud aunt of a smart, talented and kind nephew, who happens to be gay. My belief is that this young man is free to partake in any profession he has worked hard to earn, can live wherever he pleases without harassment and discrimination, and can love anyone he wants to love. I challenge Mr. Fisher to ponder if he wants this same access, security and happiness for any of his relatives. If he had a smart, talented and kind son who happened to be gay, would he shame him by not allowing him to be part of the scouting tradition that

■■THE HERALD

Please follow WHL to the end It appears that, yet again, The Herald sports section has failed to report on major happenings in the WHL. For those who don’t have access to the NHL channel on Comcast, the Kelowna Rockets were defeated in overtime by the Oshawa Generals in the Memorial Cup final. Kelowna played fantastic hockey all season and, once the Silvertips were out of contention, we hoped they would proceed to the top and bring the cup, again, to the WHL. It was an exciting series and a joy to watch all of these young men work so hard. As Silvertip fans, we congratulate the Kelowna Rockets on a fine season. There are several thousand hockey fans now in Everett and the surrounding communities and that fan base continues to grow as more and more youngsters are taking up the sport. It would be nice if The Herald gave even half as munch print coverage to all levels of hockey as they do to a football player’s hangnail. Margo Faccini Lake Stevens

What if we set a maximum wage for CEOs?

t’s an ode to cognitive dissonance when pundits come out swinging (rhetorically) against a strong minimum wage or decent pensions for everyday working people but don’t even bat an eyelash at big-time CEOs who take home millions of dollars a year or outsource local jobs — especially when the economic evidence for the former, and against JOHN BURBANK the latter, is so strong. For example, Washington state has had the highest minimum wage in the nation for years, and yet the state’s unemployment rate is on par with the national rate. Seattle rolled out the first phase of an eventual $15 minimum wage, and King County unemployment is down to 3.3 percent. Anyone dismissing that as anecdotal evidence ought to review a recent study from the Center for Economic Policy Research which found across-theboard positive effects in 12 of 13 states that increased their minimum wage in early 2014. Or, take a look at the work of Michael Reich, an economics professor at University of California at Berkeley with a doctorate from Harvard, and a team of other well-credentialed academics, who compiled minimum wage and employment data from around the country from the past 25 years — research that paired every set of counties in the U.S. across state lines with different minimum wages. Their conclusions: Minimum wage increases resulted in higher incomes for low-wage workers, lower rates of job turnover and had no impact on the number of jobs in low-wage industries. Economy boosting jobs are ones that pay enough for people to maintain spending on the basics such as utilities, repairs, doctor visits and so on, boosting families, communities and local businesses in the process. So why do some CEOs seem to be intent on busting our economy instead? Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, according to just-released CEO compensation rankings, got $84 million in 2014 (over 2,000 times the $40,000 pay of a typical Washington worker). Mr. Nadella is presiding over the layoff of 18,000 workers, about 14 percent of the Microsoft workforce. Boeing’s Jim McNerney received a cool $23.5 million, or about 600 times the typical worker’s earnings. He’s overseeing a year of job cuts in our state, overturning the Boeing Machinists’ defined benefit pension, and, as a cherry on top, successfully bullying the Legislature for another $4 billion tax giveaway. Brian Roberts, Comcast’s CEO, received $26.5 million. Think about that when you are paying your monthly Comcast bill. The damage goes deeper than that. By hiding its profits in overseas tax havens, or setting up a store front in Reno to sell Microsoft products, Microsoft skips out on literally billions of dollars in taxes to our state and to the federal government. It is no wonder legislators are having a difficult time meeting the voters’ mandate to decrease class sizes in public schools, and have (until very recently) dramatically increased tuition at community colleges and public universities. Boeing has paid federal taxes just three times in the past dozen years, according to the Seattle Times, for a cumulative net $1.3 billion federal tax refund. That works out to an average tax rate in that period of close to negative 3 percent. If large corporations don’t pay their taxes, then funding for education, health and other public priorities is shifted to small businesses, kids, families and communities themselves. Funding for family leave insurance, which would enable parents to give their kids a stronger start in life, stays on the back burner; elementary-school students end up with larger classes and less personal attention; and college students go deep into debt to pay their tuition. Outsized CEO pay packages take from most of us — whether through higher prices at checkout, pushing down workers’ wages and benefits, or not paying taxes toward the common good — and redistribute the money to a privileged few. It doesn’t have to be this way. We have a minimum wage — why not a maximum wage? History might even guide us to a reasonable standard here. The average CEO-to-worker pay ratio was 20-to-1 in the 1950s, 42-to-1 in 1980, and 120-to-1 in 2000, so capping pay at 200 times the median wage would mean CEOs could earn up to $8 million a year, or about $3,846 per hour in our state. Not bad — even compared to Seattle’s $15 minimum wage! John Burbank is the executive director of the Economic Opportunity Institute, www.eoionline.org. Email him at john@ eoionline.org.

NOTICE OF ISSUANCE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT SNOHOMISH COUNTY 2015 GMA COMPREHENSIVE PLAN UPDATE Proponent and Lead Agency: Snohomish County Planning & Development Services 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, MS 604 Everett, WA 98201 (425) 388-3311 Proposed Action: Snohomish County (County) is updating its comprehensive plan consistent with the Washington State Growth Management Act (GMA), Puget Sound Regional Council’s (PSRC) VISION 2040, countywide planning policies (CPPs), and local community needs. Specifically, Snohomish County is updating all aspects of its comprehensive plan including: General Policy Plan (GPP), Future Land Use Map (FLUM), Transportation Element, Capital Facilities Plan, and Park and Recreation Comprehensive Plan, which is being reformatted into a Park and Recreation Element (PRE). The County is studying growth to a new 20152035 planning period consistent with the state Office of Financial Management (OFM)’s Medium Forecast resulting in 238,281 additional residents between 2011 and 2035, as well as new jobs. Location of Proposal: Unincorporated Snohomish County. Final EIS Issued: This Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) is a non-project programmatic document authorized under the State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA), WAC 197-11-442. The purpose of the document is to respond to public comments on the Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS). The DEIS was issued on September 8, 2014, and public comments were accepted until October 8, 2014. The DEIS evaluated three alternatives: Alternative 1 Vision 2040 County Council Adopted Initial Growth Targets - Allocates much lower growth in the unincorporated urban growth areas (UGAs) and rural/resource areas and directs this growth into the cities; about 92 percent of new population growth would go into the UGAs and about 8 percent in the rural areas. Within the UGAs, about 29% of the growth would go to the unincorporated UGAs and 71% to cities. Changes to policies and infrastructure plans (transportation, parks, capital facilities plans) are proposed to accommodate growth and plan for public services and infrastructure. However, no changes to land uses on the County’s FLUM are assumed, and growth would occur on lands based on the previously adopted land use pattern. Alternative 2 Snohomish County Tomorrow Recommended Growth Targets, No Action Alternative - This alternative includes t h e i n i t i a l p o p u l a t i o n gr ow t h t a r g e t s r e c o m m e n d e d by Snohomish County Tomorrow and assumes no changes to the land uses as shown on the County’s FLUM. About 90 percent of new growth would be in the UGAs and 10 percent in the rural areas. Within the UGAs, about 32% of the growth would go to the unincorporated UGAs and 68% to cities. Consistent with the Washington State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) - required no action alternative, no changes to policies are proposed. The Transportation Element for Alternative 2 was updated with the same transportation network as the other alternatives to simplify comparing the effects of growth distribution. The net effect of the changes is consistent with a no action alternative. Alternative 3 Snohomish County Tomorrow Recommended Growth Targets with Infill and Docket Proposals - This alter native includes the initial population growth targets recommended by Snohomish County Tomorrow. The alternative considers some land use and regulatory changes, as well as proposed docket amendment requests that would amend FLUM designations and UGA boundaries for the cities of Arlington, Everett, Granite Falls, Stanwood, and Sultan. Similar to Alternative 1, the County would update comprehensive plan policies and infrastructure plans to accommodate the proposed growth in a pattern supported by the amended land use plan. This Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) of the 2015 GMA Comprehensive Plan Update is issued on June 3, 2015. Document Availability: Copies will be available for review at the offices of the Department of Planning and Development Services, 2nd floor of the Robert Drewel Building, 3000 Rockefeller Avenue, Everett, Washington. The FEIS and future project updates will be available on the Snohomish County Web site: http://2015update-snoco.org Copies of the FEIS are available on CD-ROM from Snohomish County at no charge. To obtain a copy of the DEIS on CD-ROM, please contact Lori Lollis at Snohomish County: (425) 388-3311, Ext. 2206 or lori.lollis@snoco.org. Responsible Official: Clay S.

Happy Birthday: Satisfaction will be yours if you follow your heart and live your dreams. Getting involved in activities with the people you enjoy the most will help you gain confidence and put you one step closer to the life you want to live. Your numbers are 6, 19, 21, 29, 32, 35, 48. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take care of paperwork that is holding you back before someone discovers that you’ve left something incomplete. Make arrangements to do something exhilarating. �� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t be reluctant to try new things. A partnership will bring you good fortune. Express your intentions, but don’t embellish or you will have to backtrack. Keep your responsibilities simple, precise and doable. �� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll have plenty of options, but not all of them will be noteworthy. Do your homework and get the facts. Consider a new strategy to improve your money management. �� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Take what’s yours. If you give in to the demands being made, you will never reach your goals. A physical change will boost your morale and encourage you to try new things. Take time to deal with a partnership that needs an adjustment. �� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be the one to step out on a limb and initiate change. Your ideas are good and your positive attitude will win support and favors from influential sources. Your determination will not go unnoticed, and a leadership position will open up. ��

Klein Honda in Everett 2005 Honda CR-V Great Value Stk# 31529BL $7,695

ROY ROBINSON 2001 Chevrolet S-10 Stk 155140A $6,998

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t let what others do influence you. Size up your situation and act accordingly. An emotional matter will escalate if you let your temper get the best of you. �� LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The more you can fit into your day, the greater the benefits. Enjoy every moment by approaching whatever you are asked to do with positive energy and an open mind. �� SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Keep moving. Put your heart and soul into creative projects and personal enhancement. Focus on your home and making it an easy place for you to explore and develop your innovative ideas. �� SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Consider what the people you deal with want. Setting up incentives will make it easier for you to get what you want. Negotiate with everyone’s best interests at heart. �� CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t let unexpected changes cause uncertainty. Stick to what has always worked for you in the past and keep moving forward. A chance to improve an important relationship should take top priority. �� AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can make a difference that will result in a higher income and advanced position. Speak up and share your ideas. Your candor will be appreciated and a partnership will develop. �� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Take a step back and keep a watchful eye. Not everyone is on your side and someone will take pleasure in making you look bad. Avoid arguments and focus on self-improvement and doing the best you can. ��

Mariners go late

Thomas may join Sounders Saturday By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

TED S. WARREN / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson smiles as he stretches with teammates before an organized team activity on Tuesday in Renton.

Wilson remains patient QB states desire to stay with Seahawks, remains optimistic new deal will get done but OK playing season on rookie contract By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — Russell Wilson says he hopes to sign a new contract that will keep him with the Seattle Seahawks for “a long time.” He says nothing has discouraged him from believing that will happen. The agent for the two-time Super Bowl quarterback said last week he is “optimistic” he can get that deal done. Seahawks general manager John Schneider, the man heading the negotiations, has said how much the franchise wants Wilson for the long term. Coach Pete Carroll went even farther last month, saying: “We are so excited about getting Russell (an extension) and keeping him forever. We want to do all of that.” Sounds like all that’s left to do is...uh, finish the contract already. That’s essentially where the much-debated, long-awaited situation stands after Wilson on Tuesday declared, “I believe it’s going to work out. I want to be here for a long time.”

All parties sound agreeable. They’ve said the talks have been amenable. Yet Wilson also said he is prepared to begin training camp at the end of July and even the 2015 regular season without a new contract. His rookie one as Seattle’s third-round draft choice in 2012 ends after this coming season, for which he will earn $1.5 million in base pay. “Yeah, I’m prepared for that 100 percent — if that’s the case,” Wilson said, five days after his agent Mark Rodgers told Seattle’s 710 ESPN radio there was no deadline on getting a new deal done. “You know, I want to be here for a long time. But if that’s the case I’ve just got to get ready to play,” Wilson said. That was after he threw about a half-dozen touchdown passes to smiling, leaping and football dunking Jimmy Graham. The new tight end has already added new juice to Seahawks practices and their locker room; Seattle’s top-ranked defense couldn’t See SEAHAWKS, Page C2

Blatter says he will resign as FIFA president Stunning move comes days after re-election amid increasing pressure from corruption investigation. By Daniella Matar and Graham Dunbar Associated Press

ZURICH — The end for Sepp Blatter came suddenly, just days after he had seemingly solidified his hold on FIFA. The 79-year-old leader of the world’s most popular sport defied global animosity last

week to win four more years in office. But his re-election only increased the pressure from colleagues, sponsors, athletes and fans for Blatter to step down as FIFA’s president. At a hastily arranged news conference Tuesday, Blatter announced he would leave office within months and called for a fresh election to appoint a successor. “I cherish FIFA more than anything and I want to do only what is best for FIFA and for football,” said Blatter, who could still be a target of U.S. investigators delving into decades of corruption

and bribery accusations against FIFA officials. After generations under Blatter and his mentor, Joao Havelange, the announcement left FIFA without Sepp Blatter a leader and without a clear course forward. It sets off a global power struggle for control of the organization as a criminal investigation intensifies. A strained and serious Blatter read a six-minute statement in French before exiting without

taking questions. Blatter had been defiant and feisty in the same room on Saturday, fending off questions about FIFA’s battered reputation and the chance he could be arrested. His mood had changed in the 24 hours before his announcement, Blatter aide Walter Gagg told The Associated Press. A federal indictment last week detailed apparent bribes from a FIFA account totaling $10 million to senior officials for voting South Africa as the 2010 World Cup host. Late Monday, reports

TUKWILA — Brazilian midfielder Thomas signed with the Seattle Sounders on Monday and could be playing with them Saturday when up to four key starters could be missing from the squad. The Sounders know that when they visit Sporting Kansas City they will be without midfielders Brad Evans and Osvaldo Alonso, and they may also be without forwards Obafemi Martins and Clint Dempsey. Evans is away with the United States national team, and on Tuesday the MLS Disciplinary Committee announced a one-game suspension and undisclosed fine against Alonso for a “violent conduct” — kicking an opposing player — in the 83rd minute of the Sunday match against the New York Red Bulls. Coach Sigi Schmid also announced that Martins underwent surgery for a broken nose and could be unavailable this weekend. Meanwhile, Dempsey and his wife continued to await the birth of their fourth child. Schmid said with all of that, he sees Thomas “definitely in the 18” at Kansas City. That sounded good to Thomas, who had been training with the club pending completion of his international paperwork. “I’m very satisfied,” he said in Portuguese and translated through a Sounders employee. “I’m happy with the city. It’s a big city. Very green. Lots of thing to do. I’m also fitting in with the team. Everybody welcomed me very well. For that I’m very happy and looking forward to contribute as soon as possible.” The Sounders say they started tracking Thomas about three years ago, when he was 19. He was finally signed after 61 career appearances in the professional leagues of Brazil, including 19 with Flamengo in the Brazilian Serie A. “He can play anywhere in the midfield,” Sounders sporting director Chris Henderson said. “I think his strengths are probably coming out of wide midfield. So he’ll be in competition with the other guys who have been in good form this year. I think he’s willing to compete and work for playing time. I think in moments he’ll be dangerous going at players one-on-one.”

Bulls introduce Hoiberg as coach Associated Press CHICAGO — The Chicago Bulls made it official Tuesday, hiring Iowa State’s Fred Hoiberg to replace Tom Thibodeau. Hoiberg was long rumored as the replacement for Thibodeau, who was fired after five seasons. Hoiberg went 115-56 with the Cyclones, including four straight NCAA Tournament appearances and back-to-back Big 12 tournament titles. He takes over a team that fell short of expectations, struggling through injuries in a 50-win regular season and lost to Cleveland in the Eastern Conference semifinals.

By Howard Fendrich PARIS — Stumbling on his way to the net, Roger Federer dropped his racket and fell to his knees on the red clay. Hardly the sort of grace and precision the world has come to expect from the 17-time Grand Slam champion. There were other unusual sights in Federer’s 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (4) loss in the French Open quarterfinals Tuesday against his pal and Swiss Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka. “I made 30-something errors today. He, maybe, made one,” said Federer, exaggerating a bit. Rarely injured and appearing in a 62nd consecutive major, Federer received treatment on his right hand from a trainer. For years and years a dominant and confident force in tennis, Federer slumped in his changeover chair, head bowed, after falling behind two sets to none. And, according to the ATP, this was the first time since a fourth-round loss at the 2002 U.S. Open — back before he’d won a major trophy — that Federer failed to break an opponent’s serve once in a Grand Slam match. “I know that when I play good tennis, when I play my best tennis, I can play so heavy from both sides that it’s really tough for the opponent to play,” said the eighthseeded Wawrinka, who will play 14th-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga of France in the semifinals Friday. “That’s why Roger was struggling today. It’s because I was playing so well.” So long superior to the younger Wawrinka, Federer was defeated for only the third time in their 19 head-to-head matches, and for the first time in five meetings at Grand Slam tournaments. “I tried many things,” Federer said. “Obviously I was not going to leave the French Open without

cover him much Tuesday as Wilson kept throwing to him during the fifth organized team activity practice. Wilson was asked following the latest practice of these voluntary OTAs that began last week at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center how important it was for him to spend “a long time” — if not his entire NFL career — with one team. “That’s the ultimate, you know, thing I’ve always wanted,” he said. “I think it has to be the right situation, obviously. But I’ve always wanted to play in one city, especially like this that I love, a place that’s meant a lot to me. “I’ve moved around enough, honestly,” he said, chuckling. “I played (minor-league) baseball first. Came out to Pasco, Washington (for short-season Class-A ball while in college). It’s like deja vu. Then I went back to N.C. State and had to transfer to Wisconsin, a place that I never imagined going. It was kind of a crazy whirlwind. It worked out tremendously. And I always have confidence. No matter where I can I believe it will always work out. “In this situation, I hope that it’s here. And I hope that it’s here for a

FRANCOIS MORI

Stan Wawrinka returns a shot in the quarterfinal match of the French Open against Roger Federer at Roland Garros Tuesday in Paris. Wawrinka won in straight sets to reach the semfinals.

having tried everything out there.” During the eight French Opens from 2005 to 2012, Federer reached at least the semifinals seven times, including winning the 2009 championship to complete a career Grand Slam. But this is the third year in a row he exits Roland Garros in the quarterfinals or earlier. Give Wawrinka credit. Powering the ball from the baseline in Court Suzanne Lenglen on a windy day, he produced groundstrokes that cut through gusts topping 30 mph. “I’m a little bit surprised to win that match in three sets and the way I did,” Wawrinka said, “but it’s a great feeling.” Over at Court Philippe Chatrier, Tsonga’s 6-1, 6-4, 4-6, 3-6, 6-3 victory over No. 5 Kei Nishikori was interrupted for about 40 minutes when one person was injured after a 9-foot-long (3-meter-long) piece of metal paneling was blown off a giant TV screen and fell onto packed rows of spectators below. French Open organizers originally said three people were hurt, but tournament director Gilbert Ysern later said two were fine after

being checked at an infirmary. One went to the hospital for an injured wrist. When he finally defeated Nishikori, who was trying to become the first Japanese man to reach the French semifinals in 82 years, Tsonga knelt on the court, then rose and used the sole of his right shoe to write “Roland, je t’aime” — “I love you, Roland” — in the clay. Tsonga then got down on his back, with arms and legs spread apart, as 15,000 or so of his closest friends stood and roared their approval for their man’s second trip to the semifinals in Paris. “You’re going to be praised when you reach semis at Roland Garros, as if you had already won the tournament,” Tsonga said. “Whereas, in fact, well, to me it’s not over yet.” He’s a burly guy who can rip the ball as hard as just about anyone on tour, and he and Wawrinka have split six career meetings. As well as Wawrinka played Tuesday, he probably would have been just fine without the point conceded by Federer after a

very long time. I hope that I get to wear Seahawks blue and the No. 3 for a long time. We’ll see what happens.” Wilson missed last week’s first two OTA practices to attend funerals in Florida with Graham for the tight end’s mentor and close friend, then on Thursday for the father of teammate Cliff Avril. Wilson rejoined the team for Friday’s on-field drills and then Monday’s. Tuesday in his second practice with Graham, the quarterback looked sharp — considering it’s the first week of June. His throws were short on what was a day focused on red-zone drills inside the 20. Wilson mentioned his new work this offseason in San Diego with a new trainer, Ryan Flaherty, to get faster and stronger, especially in his legs. Though he gained a few pounds, up to 216, he wants to be faster getting away from the many defenders that have poured through Seattle’s offensive line in recent seasons. They are likely to again this season when that line has at least two new starters, at center and left guard. “Working on my legs has really helped my arm strength too, as well,” he said. But the focus Tuesday was on his contract situation, not his passing. Wilson spoke Tuesday about an hour after Carolina quarterback

Cam Newton, the league’s No. 1-overall draft pick the year before Wilson entered the NFL, signed a five-year contract extension reportedly worth $103.8 million with up to $60 million guaranteed. Asked about that deal, and about whether the much-discussed $20-million-per-year plateau is the start of what he’s seeking from the Seahawks, Wilson predictably avoided those queries like an oncoming defensive end. “I’m not going to talk about money,” he said multiple times in 15 minutes. “That’s a private matter.” But you can be sure he and his agent are noticing those numbers, especially the guaranteed money. Guaranteed cash is king for NFL players, who don’t have guaranteed contracts like those most lavishly in Major League Baseball. And guaranteed cash is likely the hurdle that is keeping Wilson’s deal from being done already. Meanwhile, the league’s market on quarterbacks isn’t waiting. Newton’s numbers may now be the new floor for Wilson’s deal with Seattle — especially given Newton is a career sub-.500 QB who has yet to reach the Super Bowl. Wilson is 42-14, the most wins in the first three years of a career by a quarterback in league history, with two Super Bowl starts already. And he is 4-0 against Newton in his career,

perhaps what happened in the last hours, this gave him the conviction,” Gagg, a long-time confidant of Blatter, told the AP in a telephone interview. “We had lunch with him yesterday (Monday). He was relaxed he was fine,” Gagg said. “I had a very good meeting with him early in the morning

PARIS — A look at the French Open on Tuesday: Men’s quarterfinal results: No. 8 Stan Wawrinka beat No. 2 Roger Federer 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (4); No. 14 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga beat No. 5 Kei Nishikori 6-1, 6-4, 4-6, 3-6, 6-3. Women’s quarterfinal results: No. 7 Ana Ivanovic beat No. 19 Elina Svitolina 6-3, 6-2; No. 13 Lucie Safarova beat No. 21 Garbine Muguruza 7-6 (3), 6-3. On court today: No. 1 Novak Djokovic vs. No. 6 Rafael Nadal, No. 3 Andy Murray vs. No. 7 David Ferrer, No. 1 Serena Williams vs. No. 17 Sara Errani, No. 23 Timea Bacsinszky vs. Alison Van Uytvanck. Associated Press

disputed call in the tiebreaker. “I played my best match in a Grand Slam tournament,” said Wawrinka, quite a statement considering he won the 2014 Australian Open, “and my best match on clay.” The other men’s quarterfinals are Wednesday: No. 1 Novak Djokovic against nine-time champion Rafael Nadal, and No. 3 Andy Murray against No. 7 David Ferrer. One women’s semifinal was set Tuesday: No. 7 Ana Ivanovic against No. 13 Lucie Safarova. Safarova, who eliminated defending champion Maria Sharapova in the fourth round, beat Garbine Muguruza 7-6 (3), 6-3 to reach the second major semifinal of her career. Ivanovic reached her first Grand Slam semifinal since winning the 2008 French Open by defeating Elina Svitolina of Ukraine 6-3, 6-2.

including January’s win over Carolina in the NFC divisional playoffs.

Extra points Graham was dynamic, almost wowing, in his second Seahawks practice. He punctuated each of his half-dozen touchdown catches with leaping spikes and dunks of the ball as teammates roared. At times WR Chris Matthews held the ball for Graham to dunk over the goalpost built into the netting beyond the indoor field’s end zone. “That’s what I do,” said Graham, for whom the league recently instituted a rule prohibiting celebratory dunks over the goalposts in games. At first defenders, chiefly noted woofer CB Richard Sherman, howled over Graham’s showmanship. But soon even the defense that couldn’t cover Graham most of the practice was celebrating with the star TE. Second-year LB Kevin Pierre-Louis intercepted a pass off the hands of rookie free-agent WR Deshon Foxx and ran the other way for a defensive “touchdown.” S Kam Chancellor then took the ball, leaped and spiked it like Graham was doing. ... All-Pro S Earl Thomas, recovering from surgery to repair a separated shoulder, put on his helmet and ran through some position drills, catching passes. That’s progress from last week, when he watched all the drills. During offense-versus-defense scrimmage, Thomas stood on the sidelines holding his helmet, obviously chafed and pacing anxiously like a caged tiger. ... The grieving Avril was still absent from the voluntary drills. DE Michael Bennett and LB Bruce Irvin were absent again, miffed over money. RB Marshawn Lynch was away, as he almost always is during the offseason.

(today). Then came the different information from the U.S. with this and that.” The South African angle threatens to tarnish memories of a bid campaign that brought Nelson Mandela to Zurich for the winning vote in 2004. At risk also is the legacy of a World Cup that was an organizational triumph for FIFA and South Africa, and bolstered Blatter’s reputation as a friend of Africa whose loyalty stood firm in Friday’s election. Even before the election, Blatter’s ability to travel to the U.S., or other countries where a Swiss national risked arrest and extradition, had become a distracting story. Blatter’s vigor in acclaiming his election victory — a 133-73 win over Prince Ali bin al-Hussein of Jordan — was gone by Tuesday. “This mandate does not seem to be supported by everybody in the world of

football,” Blatter said. “I will continue to exercise my function (until the new election).” Elections are expected to take place sometime between December and March. Prince Ali declined to say if he’d run again. “I am at the disposal of all the national associations who want a change, including all of those who were afraid to make a change,” Prince Ali said in an interview with CNN. Michel Platini, the president of European body UEFA, had called for Blatter’s resignation last week before the vote. On Tuesday, he praised Blatter’s decision to go. “It was a difficult decision, a brave decision, and the right decision,” said Platini, a former protege who planned a strategy meeting of UEFA members to discuss anti-Blatter tactics in Berlin later this week.

SEATTLE — If first impressions count for anything, right-handed reliever Mayckol Guaipe will be back in the big leagues before long. For now, though, Guaipe is heading back to Triple-A Tacoma on an optional assignment by the Seattle Mariners in order to clear space for lefthander Mike Montgomery on the 25-man roster. Montgomery made his major-league debut Tuesday night when he started against the New York Yankees at Safeco Field. He filled the rotation vacancy created last week when James Paxton suffered a finger injury. The Mariners also activated rookie left-handed reliever Tyler Olson from the disabled list and optioned him to Tacoma. He suffered a bruised knee in a May 2 outing at Houston. Olson, 25, was 1-1 with a 5.40 ERA in 11 games prior to his injury. The Mariners recalled Guaipe, 24, from Tacoma prior to Monday’s game to provide a fresh arm for a bullpen that worked 102⁄3 innings over the two previous games. Guaipe responded by retiring all seven batters over 21⁄3 innings in his major-league debut after replacing an ineffective Felix Hernandez in a 7-2 loss to the Yankees in the series opener. “He did a nice job for us,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “He’s got a nice future. You can’t play with 26.” Guaipe is the first pitcher in franchise history to record a

perfect outing of at least two innings in his big-league debut. He is also just the 17th pitcher over the last century to pitch at least 21⁄3 innings without allowing a runner. The corresponding move to add Montgomery figured to be a choice between two relievers: Guaipe and right-hander Dominic Leone, who had struggled before working two scoreless innings in Monday’s loss.

Plan for Iwakuma Injured right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma is just about ready to step back on a mound as the next step in his recovery from a strained back muscle — specifically, a strained right latissimus dorsi muscle. Plans call for Iwakuma to test his recovery Thursday in a bullpen workout. Tentative plans call for two more bullpen sessions, Sunday and next week, and at least one simulated game before he will be reevaluated for a possible departure to the minor leagues for a rehab assignment. Iwakuma is expected to make two or three rehab starts before rejoining the big-league rotation. He suffered the injury in his day-after throwing program following an April 20 start against Houston.

Flashing leather The Mariners, whatever their other problems, seem to have solved what appeared to be a surprisingly leaky defense over the season’s opening weeks. They entered Tuesday’s game with only nine errors over their last 27 games, which covers the span since committing a season-high three errors on May 2 in an 11-4 loss at Houston. The Mariners have a .991 fielding percentage in their 27-game lockdown, which is the best in the American League. Overall, their .986 fielding percentage ranks fourth in the league. Oddly, perhaps, the Mariners had a .986 fielding percentage a year ago — and led the league.

Minor details Right-hander Edwin Diaz, rated prior to the season as the organization’s top pitching prospect, continues to struggle since his May 13 promotion to Double-A Jackson. Diaz, 21, lasted just four innings Monday before exiting after throwing 85 pitches in a 5-2 victory at Mississippi (Braves). He is 0-3 with an 8.66 ERA in four starts since joining the Generals from Hi-A Bakersfield. That promotion occurred after Diaz opened the season by going 2-0 with a 1.70 ERA in seven starts at Bakersfield with 42 strikeouts in 37 innings. He permitted just 0.811 walks and hits per inning. The Mariners selected Diaz in the third round of the 2012 draft.

Looking back It was 14 years ago Wednesday — June 3, 2001 — that the Mariners set a franchise record by winning their 11th consecutive game in an 8-4 victory over Tampa Bay at Safeco Field. The previous record of 10 straight victories occurred from Sept. 12-21, 1996. The 2001 Mariners stretched their winning streak to 15 games, which remains a club record.

Short hops The Mariners have played 35 games decided by two or fewer runs — the most in the majors. ... The Mariners faced a left-handed starter Tuesday (CC Sabathia) for the first time since facing Toronto’s Mark Buehrle on May 23. They are not scheduled to face another lefty for at least five games. ... Robinson Cano needs to score two more runs to reach 900 for his career. ... Mike Montgomery is the 37th pitcher in franchise history to make his bigleague debut in a starting role. The last to do so was Roenis Elias on April 3, 2014 at Oakland. ... Montgomery is the fourth Mariners’ starting pitcher to make his debut against the Yankees. The others were Matt Young (April 6, 1983), Terry Taylor (Aug. 19, 1988) and Pat Rice (May 18, 1991).

Nats’ Strasburg has a strained left trapezius muscle

WASHINGTON — Stephen Strasburg was evaluated by team doctors on Monday and the results confirmed the Washington Nationals’ initial diagnosis. He is dealing with a strained left trapezius muscle, manager Matt Williams said Tuesday. Strasburg will not throw and must rest and receive treatment until the tightness subsides. The discomfort in the muscle, which stretches from the neck down into the upper back, forced Strasburg out of his last start in Cincinnati after 16 pitches. The Nationals placed Strasburg on the disabled list on Saturday officially with “neck tightness” and Williams described it then as a trapezius strain but the team was puzzled as to what was bothering the starter. Since spring training, Strasburg has dealt with a

Holliday’s on-base streak ends at 45 after ejection Associated Press ST. LOUIS — Matt Holliday of the St. Louis Cardinals was ejected for arguing a called third strike in the seventh inning of a 1-0 win over Milwaukee on Tuesday, ensuring the end of his National League-record 45-game streak reaching base safely to start the season.

Washington pitcher Stephen Strasburg throws in a game against Cincinnati on May 29.

sprained ankle, and stiffness behind his right shoulder blade and in his back. Any minor change in the body can cause a chain reaction in a pitcher’s mechanics.

“We’ve just got to calm the trapezius tightness down and get him back as quickly as possible,” Williams said. “So that’s kind of where they’re at right now, letting that muscle calm down. The medical staff is working on it hard. As soon as he feels good, then he’ll get back to throwing.” The Nationals aren’t sure when Strasburg will resume throwing. But Williams, ever the optimist, said “it could be within days.” Aside from the nicks to his body, Strasburg’s season has been baffling. He has never struggled this much for this long. He has a 6.55 ERA through 451⁄3 innings over 10 starts. He has pitched more than four innings only once in his past five starts, twice leaving with an injury. With runners on base, opponents are hitting .412 against Strasburg compared to .259 with none on.

Gallo sparkles for Rangers in ML debut Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Joey Gallo walked into the Texas Rangers clubhouse after his major-league debut carrying three baseballs. One was from his first hit, which came in his first at-bat. There was also the home run hit into the upper deck his next time up, and the double that ricocheted off the top of the wall in right-center field. “I definitely did not think this was going to happen the first game,” Gallo said. “I was just going to be happy to get on base the first game, so I definitely overachieved my goals there.” The top prospect in the Rangers organization had those three hits, set a franchise record for an MLB debut with four RBI, walked and even got a standing ovation after striking out with the bases loaded in the Rangers’ 15-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night. “That easy? For real, it’s that easy? Joey Gallo We lost one of the best players and we bring that guy from Double-A, and to perform the way he did was freaking awesome,” said Carlos Corporan, who had a career-high five RBIs. Gallo made the jump from Double-A Frisco for what is supposed to be a short stint while four-time All-Star third baseman Adrian Beltre is on the 15-day disabled list with a sprained left thumb. With the bases loaded in the first, Gallo hit a hard shot that got past Gold Glove first baseman Adam LaRoche. It was scored a “bad-hop single” that drove home the first two runs off Jeff Samardzija (4-3). When Gallo came up two innings later, he hit the first pitch into the upper deck in right field — an estimated 418 feet — for a 6-2 lead. “This is why I get to do what I do and why I love what I do. All the hype, incredible evening for a young man,” Rangers manager Jeff Banister said. “Really rarely do they come up and meet all of the expectations in their first night.” Gallo came oh so close to another homer in the fifth with a drive off the top of the wall. “The Natural” music played for home runs started briefly before being turned off. Even Gallo though he had homered again when he heard the music. He was starting to jog around first base until he saw the ball getting picked up in the outfield. Shin-Soo Choo and Corporan homered for the Rangers, who have won 11 of their last 13 games. Corporan entered the game in the third for starting catcher Robinson Chirinos, who had a bruised right hand after getting hit by a pitch. Colby Lewis (5-3) struck out four with no walks in seven innings and the only runs he gave up were on Adam Eaton’s tworun homer in the third — also in the upper deck in right but not as far as Gallo’s.

Peterson coming back to Vikings Associated Press MINNEAPOLIS — Adrian Peterson is coming back to the Minnesota Vikings, telling The Associated Press that he will participate in the team’s voluntary practice on Tuesday and still has love for his team after nine months away. Peterson sent an e-mail to the AP early Tuesday morning saying he’s excited to put on a uniform again after missing the final 15 games of last season while addressing child abuse charges in Texas. He also skipped the team’s voluntary practices last week while openly lamenting the fact that the final three years of his contract are not guaranteed. “I’ve been away from the game for an entire season,” Peterson wrote to the AP. “I wanted the chance to be around the players and coaches, the guys that really matter to me.” After skipping the three practices last week, Peterson tweeted that he was looking for more long-term security on a contract that has three years and roughly $45 million left on it, none of which is guaranteed. He told the AP that a family commitment caused him to miss the workouts, but also said “it’s normal procedure for any player in my position to want to secure his future.” Peterson’s agent, Ben Dogra, told The Associated Press they have received no assurances from the Vikings that changes to his contract are on the table. The relationship between the team and its franchise player has been tense dating back to September, when the child abuse allegations first surfaced. He spent much of the season on the commissioner’s exempt list while his case unfolded and he was angered by a perceived lack of support from some members of

the organization, namely COO Kevin Warren. Suddenly, Peterson says he’s ready to put all of that behind him. “I understand this is a business. Clearly there were a lot of emotions involved, but I will only be better from the situation,” Peterson wrote. “I have a role to play and the Vikings have one as well. It’s time to move forward and put my energy and focus on preparing for the season.” Peterson pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor for striking his 4-year-old son with a wooden switch while disciplining him, and his agents initially pushed for a trade once he was reinstated from his suspension. The Vikings maintained all along they had no plans to trade the former NFL MVP, believing that his presence could help turn a team that finished 7-9 last year into a playoff contender. Once the draft came and went last month without a deal, the focus shifted toward his contract. The 30-year-old Peterson will have his $12.75 million salary for 2015 guaranteed in Week 1, but all bets are off after that. The Vikings declined to comment on Peterson’s decision to return to the team.

Saints extend DE Jordan METAIRIE, La. — The New Orleans Saints and starting defensive end Cameron Jordan have agreed on a contract extension through the 2020 season. Jordan’s agent, Doug Hendrickson of Relativity Football, said the five-year extension, signed Tuesday, is worth up to $60 million with $34 million guaranteed. Jordan was New Orleans’ first of two first-round draft choices in 2011 and was entering the final season of his rookie contract. He has 29 sacks and five forced fumbles in his career, including a single-seasonhigh 12 1/2 sacks in 2013. Last season, his sack total dipped to 7 1/2 as New Orleans’ defense struggled as a whole, ranking 31st in the NFL.

Hynes hired as new Devils head coach Associated Press NEWARK, N.J. — John Hynes was hired Tuesday as coach of the New Jersey Devils, becoming the youngest coach in the NHL at 40 years old. General manager Ray Shero said under Hynes, the Devils will be a fast, attacking team that knows how to play defense. Nobody but Hynes was offered the job, Shero said. Financial terms of the multi-year contract were not disclosed. In conducting his month-long search, Shero said he wanted a coach who could teach, inspire and have discipline. He never had a big list of candidates and when he decided on Hynes, it felt right.

“I think John embodies all of that stuff and he has a presence,” said Shero, who was the Penguins general manager when Hynes was hired to coach at Wilkes-Barre/Scranton of the AHL, the Penguins’ top farm team. “I have seen him in development camps. He has a presence and he is a leader,” Shero said. Hynes coached Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton for five seasons. When asked about Hynes’ lack of NHL head coaching experience, Shero reminded everyone that Tampa Bay coach Jon Cooper has the Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final against the Chicago Blackhawks only two seasons after being hired away from his AHL job.

Leinart among 1st-timers on ballot for College HOF Associated Press Southern California Heisman winner Matt Leinart and former New Mexico star Brian Urlacher are among the players making their first appearance on the College Football Hall of Fame ballot. The National Football Foundation released on Tuesday the players and coaches being considered

for selection this year. The new Hall of Fame class will be announced Jan. 8 in Arizona, the site of the College Football Playoff championship game. Leinart won the Heisman and led the Trojans to the national championship in 2004. Urlacher was the Mountain West player of the year in 1999 before having a standout career with the Chicago Bears.

TIME TO START PICKING

By Dorie Greenspan Special to The Washington Post

I can usually predict how dinner at my Italian friends’ homes will end. There might be fresh fruit for a finish. Or there might be cheese. Or there might be fruit and cheese. But there’ll always be an apology. “I’m sorry,” my friends will say. “We Italians don’t really make desserts.” Untrue! Never mind all the wonderful crostatas, those beautiful fruit tarts. What about tiramisu? And how about panna cotta? If Italy had given us nothing but the last two, we’d still have a lot to thank the country for. Panna cotta has become a dessert many think of as “restaurant-only.” Inexplicable. Foolish. If you can make Jell-O, you can make panna cotta. I hate to think of them as being related, although they might be. But panna cotta is so much more delicious — and interesting.

Double-strawberry buttermilk panna cotta For the jam: 1 pint (8 ounces) fresh strawberries, hulled, rinsed, dried and thickly sliced 2 teaspoons honey 1⁄2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar For the panna cotta: 21⁄4 teaspoons (1 packet) unflavored gelatin 3 tablespoons cold water 1 cup heavy cream 1⁄4 cup sugar 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 1 cup whole or low-fat buttermilk, preferably at room temperature For the topping: 1 pint (8 ounces) fresh strawberries, hulled, rinsed, dried and cut into quarters 1 tablespoon sugar Freshly cracked black pepper or crushed pink peppercorns (optional) Make ahead: The individual panna cottas (with jam underneath) need to be refrigerated for at least 2 hours and up to 2 days in advance. Top with the fresh berries just before serving. Set heatproof dessert bowls, small tumblers or canning jars on a baking sheet or plate lined with paper towels, parchment or wax paper. (This makes ferrying the glasses in and out of the refrigerator safe and easy.) For the jam, stir the berries and honey together in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring, until the liquid that develops becomes syrupy, about 4 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar and stir for 1 minute, then remove from the heat. Divide evenly among the bowls, glasses or jars; freeze for about 30 minutes or only long enough to firm up the jam while you make the panna cotta. For the panna cotta, put the gelatin in a microwave-safe liquid measuring cup or spouted bowl that holds at least 3 cups. Pour in the cold water; let the mixture sit on the counter for about 3 minutes or until the gelatin is thoroughly moistened. Meanwhile, pour the cream into a small saucepan. Stir in the sugar and cook over medium heat just until the mixture boils around the edges. Heat the softened gelatin in the microwave on high for 15 seconds or just until it has liquefied. Pour the hot sweetened cream mixture over the gelatin, add the vanilla extract and stir to blend. (If your buttermilk is cold, first pour it into the hot saucepan and stir it around to temper it.) Stir in the buttermilk. Remove the bowls, glasses or jars from the freezer; divide the panna cotta mixture among them. Refrigerate until the panna cotta is set, at least 2 hours. For the topping, about 5 minutes before you’re ready to serve, mix the strawberries and sugar together in a medium bowl; let them sit for several minutes, just until the berries glisten and start to get juicy. Spoon the berries on top of each panna cotta, and, if you’d like, sprinkle with cracked black pepper or a pinch of crushed pink peppercorns. Makes 4 servings.

Siblings Hannah Shevitz (right) and Jakob treat themselves to a mouthful of freshly picked strawberries at Biringer Farms in Arlington last summer. Biringer Farms will host its free-admission Strawberry Festival on June 20 and 21. Top, Dianna Biringer shares a photo of her strawberry shortcake.

Great recipes to get an early strawberry season off to a tasty start By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — It’s already time to pick strawberries. Mother Nature usually cooperates with the end of the school year, so that berries are ripe by mid-June and ready for youpick when kids begin summer vacation. Strawberries are coming on two weeks early this year, said Dianna Biringer, whose family owns 17 acres of strawberries near Arlington. Biringer Farms

has the biggest strawberry crop in Snohomish County, which in the heyday was home to about 2,000 acres of strawberries. Smaller operations are open for picking this weekend as well, including the Bailey farm south of Snohomish and the Bolles farm south of Monroe. Don’t wait too long to get out there since most local growers focus on June-bearing strawberries only. “If we get hot weather, we could be looking at a three-week

season,” Biringer said. So what to do with those strawberries? Slice them into a spinach salad with goat cheese and almonds. Bake up the recipe on the Bisquick box for strawberry shortcake. Definitely freeze some whole on a cookie sheet and then bag them up for use later. At the Biringer house, strawberry season often coincides with daughter Melody’s birthday.

“The day she was born we had 400 pickers working, so my husband Mike couldn’t go to the hospital with me,” Biringer said. Melody’s birthday cake, which her mom says will hold 52 candles this year, is made each year of layers of angel food cake, vanilla pudding and sliced strawberries with whipped cream on top. Here are a few other ideas on how to use strawberries: See PICK, Page D2

Get the most out of strawberries; roast them

don’t need a calendar to tell me summer is almost here. As a lifelong Northwesterner, I have always marked the beginning of summer with the start of strawberry season. Little green pints of scarlet, seed-freckled berries appear just after the first whiffs of charcoal smoke but before the sharp smell of cold sprinkler water on sun-soaked pavement. Strawberries are an essential component of summer. There are as many ways to enjoy strawberries as there are days in the summer — probably more. My favorite is straight off the vine on a hot day. Midday sun bakes the water out of the berries concentrating their juices turning them nearly to syrup. Sun-baked strawberries have an in-yourface strawberry flavor that’s absent in less stressed coolmorning berries. I highly recommend visiting a strawberry field and picking the berries yourself. It is a bit of an effort to get down in the dust and harvest the fruit, but worth it to taste the hot caramelized juice at its source. If you are focused on picking it is easy to bring home boxes of berries to eat, freeze or turn into jam or pastries. Roasting strawberries mimics the hot sun baking them on the

ROSE McAVOY vine. The cooking process evaporates most of the water naturally present in the fruit leaving behind that same caramelized concentrated strawberry flavor but in morsels perfect for folding into baked goodies such as cookies, pancakes or strawberry scones. If you’re lucky you’ll be rewarded with glossy puddles of strawberry juice that dry into a sort of fruit leather. After everything cools, I set the roasted strawberries aside and nibble on these stained glass candies as quiet as a mouse so I don’t have to share with the kids. While developing this recipe I learned a fun fact about scones. Once they have been cut into their little wedges, just prior to baking, scones can be frozen. This was music to my ears. Recently I was preparing scones along with several other breakfast treats for a baby shower brunch. When the day of the brunch

arrived, I baked them from frozen and they were as light and pillowy as if I had made them from scratch that very morning. Give roasting strawberries a try. Swirl them into your yogurt or use them in baked goods. The sticky sweetness is like getting a sneak preview of the summer’s sun-drenched coming attractions.

Roasted strawberries 2 pounds of fresh strawberries washed and dried, stems removed, cut into 3⁄4 -inch pieces Lay the berries in a single layer on two parchment or silicone baking mat lined cookie sheets. Do not crowd the berries

or they will steam rather than roast. Bake the berries at 325 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. I prefer a lower temperature for a longer time to really concentrate the flavor of the berries. The berries will shrivel, reducing in size by up to 3⁄4 and the edges will dry out. Most of the liquid will leak out of the berries and puddle up around them. (Once the berries have cooled you can peel up the juice and enjoy it as a faux fruit leather.) Allow the berries to cool then scoop the roasted strawberries into a sealed container and refrigerate until you are ready to use. The chilled roasted strawberries should keep for a couple of days. Prep time: 20 minutes. Cook time: 45 minutes. Makes 1 cup of berries.

NOURISH | Ellie Krieger

Layers of flavor in a strata makeover A strata, also called a breakfast bake or casserole, is a savory, eggy bread pudding that is often served for a special-occasion brunch. If you have tried one before, chances are it was delicious but also laden with cream, meat and lots of cheese. This recipe takes the dish in a lighter, more healthful direction but enhances its celebratory appeal with a burst of colorful spring vegetables - sweet peas, asparagus and shredded carrot - plus umamipacked sun-dried tomatoes and a fragrant whisper of fresh tarragon. A touch of Parmigiano-Reggiano and mozzarella cheeses gives it a depth of flavor and rich texture without weighing it down. A quintessential make-ahead dish, a strata is ideally suited for serving guests. It needs to be prepared at least eight hours ahead (you typically make it the night before) so it can sit in the refrigerator, where the bread soaks up the seasoned egg-milk mixture. A little more than an hour before you are ready to serve, you simply uncover the strata and pop it into the oven. It comes out puffed and golden on top and almost soufflelike inside. While it’s definitely a dish that will wow guests, it also reheats well a scoop at a time in the microwave or covered in a 350-degree oven, which makes it perfect to have on hand for busy weekday breakfasts.

water to rehydrate if very dry 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves or 1 teaspoon dried tarragon 1 ⁄2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 ⁄4 teaspoon salt Make ahead: The assembled strata needs to be refrigerated for at least 8 hours and preferably overnight. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic; cook for 1 minute, then stir in the asparagus. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the asparagus is just beginning to soften, 1 minute. Stir in the peas, then remove from the heat. Coat a large (about 9 by 13 inches) baking dish with cooking oil spray. Arrange the bread cubes over the bottom. Whisk together the eggs, milk and mustard in a mixing bowl until well incorporated. Add the vegetable mixture, both cheeses, the carrot, sun-dried tomatoes, tarragon, pepper and salt, stirring to incorporate. Pour the mixture over the bread, then gently stir to evenly distribute the vegetables. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; refrigerate for at least 8 hours and preferably overnight. Most of the liquid will be absorbed. Remove the strata from the refrigerator, uncover and allow to sit at room temperature while you preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake until the egg mixture is set and the top forms a golden brown crust, 65 to 75 minutes. Serve warm. Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Roasted strawberry buttermilk scones 31⁄2 cups flour (suggested: 1½ cups whole wheat & 2 cups all purpose) 1 ⁄3 cup and 2 tablespoons raw sugar (may substitute white sugar) 4 teaspoons baking powder 1 ⁄2 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest 6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (cut into small cubes) 1 cup roasted strawberries (see previous recipe) 11⁄4 cups low fat buttermilk Soft and flaky scones studded with roasted strawberries. Just sweet enough to satisfy a morning pastry craving. These are best enjoyed within a few hours of baking. The entire batch is perfect for a brunch or large group. The prepared scones may also be frozen and baked a few at a time. Line two baking sheets with silicone baking mats or parchment paper. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large mixing bowl: use a fork to combine the flour, sugar, zest, baking powder, and salt. Use a fork, pastry cutter, or your fingers to blend the cold butter into the flour mixture until the butter is reduced to little pebbles and the flour looks like moist sand. Use a fork to fold the roasted strawberries into the flour so the strawberries are evenly distributed. Add the buttermilk to the flour in small portions. Begin with 1⁄2 cup and drizzle the

strain through a fine mesh sieve. Mix the strawberry and basil puree, lemon juice, simple syrup, water and ice, and enjoy. Makes 8 servings. Note: To make simple syrup: Simmer 1 cup water and 1 cup sugar over medium heat until the sugar has dissolved and chill before using. Source: Florida Strawberry Growers Association.

Chilled rhubarbstrawberry soup with black pepper ricotta For the soup: Scant 7 ounces (about 21⁄2 medium stalks) rhubarb, cut into 1⁄2 -inch pieces (11⁄2 cups) 14 ounces seedless cucumber 13 ounces strawberries, hulled and each cut in half 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1 ⁄2 cup filtered water Kosher salt For the balsamic reduction: 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons sugar Pinch kosher salt For the ricotta: 1 ⁄2 cup whole-milk ricotta cheese 1 ⁄2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper This chilled soup, the Spring Dining Guide’s Sous-Chef Challenge entry from Red Hen sous-chef Krystal Cripe, is perfect for serving in warm weather. She says the classic fruit pairing is something she grew up with, but it took a fair amount of experimentation for her to find the right balance between sweet and tart flavors. Make ahead: The soup can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2

remaining milk in a few tablespoons at a time — you may not need all of the liquid. Fold the buttermilk into the flour until the flour becomes a dough that just holds together. Use a fork or your hands to create the dough. Turn the dough onto a clean floured surface. Divide the dough into 3 equal portions. Form the portions into balls and gently pat into 1⁄2 inch thick circles. Cut each circle into 8 wedges and arrange the wedges onto the prepared baking sheets leaving about an inch between each scone. If you desire, sprinkle the tops with a tops with a pinch of sugar. Bake the scones in the hot oven for approximately 15 minutes. When fully baked the outsides should be firm and slightly golden with a soft flaky interior. Freezing the prepared dough: Scones are best when eaten within a few hours of baking. To make these in advance follow the recipe up to arranging the scones on the prepared cookie sheets. Instead of baking, place the pans into the freezer for 4 or more hours. Then place the frozen scones into a double layer of zip top bags. Be sure to squeeze all the air out of the bag when sealing. All wrapped up the scones can be stored in the freezer for several weeks. When you are ready to bake your scones, place the frozen pastries onto lined baking sheets and bake, from frozen, as directed above plus 35 additional minutes. They should come out as light and fluffy as if you had just prepared the dough. Optional: Additional coarse sugar to sprinkle on the tops prior to baking. Prep time: 20 minutes. Cook time: 15 minutes. Makes 24 petite scones.

days. For the soup, fill a large bowl with ice water. Fill a medium pot with water; add a generous pinch or two of salt and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the chopped rhubarb; cook for 1 to 11⁄2 minutes, just until tender, then use a slotted spoon to transfer the rhubarb to the ice-water bath. Let cool completely. Meanwhile, peel and coarsely chop all but 1 ounce of the cucumber (to yield 21⁄4 cups). Cut the remaining unpeeled cucumber into very small dice; reserve for a garnish. Drain the rhubarb and transfer all but a few pieces to a blender or food processor. Add the peeled, chopped cucumber, the strawberries, balsamic vinegar and water. Puree until smooth. Season lightly with salt; transfer to a lidded container and refrigerate until well chilled. For the balsamic reduction, combine the balsamic vinegar, sugar and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 1 minute, stirring until the sugar has dissolved and vinegar has barely reduced; watch closely so the mixture does not burn. Transfer to a small bowl to cool. For the ricotta, whisk together the ricotta and pepper in a medium bowl until well incorporated. Season lightly with salt. When ready to serve, cut the reserved pieces of rhubarb into very small dice. Ladle the chilled soup among individual bowls. Spoon a dollop of the black pepper ricotta at the center of each portion. Sprinkle the diced rhubarb and cucumber in each bowl, then drizzle with the balsamic reduction. Serve right away. Makes 4 servings.

GRANDPARENTING

How to make wars, sacrifices meaningful By Dee and Tom Hardie and Key Kidder Dear Grandparenting: I am watching my grandsons from my kitchen window playing soldiers outside with their toy guns. It brings to mind all the real soldier boys and Memorial Day when America honors fallen soldiers who died in the cause of duty to our nation. Memorial Day is one holiday that always chokes me up. I lost an uncle in World War II and two brothers six weeks apart in Vietnam. Judging by the attendance at the cemetery where I observe the Memorial Day services, it is my sad duty to report that Memorial Day seems to have lost a great deal of its meaning to Americans. Veterans used to hold a special place in our nation’s heart, but not much now apparently. Why is this so? Do you think my grandsons will ever pause to think about the sacrifices their ancestors made to keep America free? I doubt it. Kids today live in the moment. History means nothing. Sad Eyes, Lutherville, Maryland Dear Sad Eyes: We ruefully acknowledge that Memorial Day has become the gateway to summer instead of retaining its intended significance. Unless they

have a friend or relative who made the ultimate sacrifice, the great majority of Americans don’t know why it’s a federal holiday. As the last so-called “good war” that was World War II recedes into the past, our nation risks becoming still more detached. Americans are ambivalent about Vietnam and the recent spate of Middle East conflicts. When the draft ended in 1973 and America’s armed forces became 100% voluntary, many began to lose touch with what is means to be a soldier. Military service ceased to be a civic obligation that swept grandchildren up into uniform, ready or not. Less than 0.5% of the population serves today, compared to 12% in WWII. Sixty years ago, when everyone knew someone in the military, the urge to shop or party on the last Monday in May was suppressed. It was a time for remembering. Now there’s a growing divide between military and civilian worlds. Deployments increase, but not our interest or comprehension. We have become a nation of spectators who watch drones do the dirty work— maximum force with minimal public engagement. How do grandparents break through to grandchildren and educate them about the sacrifices

of past generations? Talking about it is a start but will have mixed results. Yet most children are keenly interested in their forebears, especially their accomplishments. A picture is worth 1,000 words. Supply photos of family in uniform and encourage grandchildren to create a collage or album with text explaining tours of duty, including medals and citations. Getting grandchildren to become actively involved placing flags and flowers on graves, visiting monuments and marching in parades gives their remembrance staying power. Grand remark of the week: Bumpy from Johnson City, Tennessee, was comforting granddaughter Mary Louise after her parents got into an argument about money. “They’ll kiss and make up,” Bumpy told her. “They have so much in common.” “I know one thing they have in common,” said Mary Louise. “They both say life’s gotten too expensive and don’t want any more kids.” Dee and Tom, married more than 50 years, have eight grandchildren.

Woman’s trust in boyfriend strained Dear Abby: I’m having a hard time getting over a secret my boyfriend, “Wayne,” kept from me. We have been off and on for 14 years, but back on for the past four. The problem is, he had a child with a woman in a different country. The child is now 9. Wayne didn’t mention it until four years ago, during our last breakup. It bothers me that he kept it from me. I have since met the woman and the child, but my trust in my boyfriend is strained. In the back of my mind I keep wondering what else he hasn’t told me. Wayne says he and the woman dated for only a few months, then broke up because he didn’t feel they were compatible. She told me their child was the product of a onenight stand. Now I don’t know who to believe. — Betrayed Out West Dear Betrayed: There is a reason why you and Wayne have been “off and on” for 14 years, and I’m guessing it’s because he has a problem with commitment. Now it appears he may also have a problem leveling with you. If you have to make a choice about whom to believe, I think you should believe the mother of his child. Dear Abby: My 85-yearold mother told me that upon her death she is leaving each of her children a letter expressing to them how they have hurt her throughout the years. Never once has she acknowledged how deeply she has hurt US. It affected our childhood and adulthood. I think if she feels we hurt her, she should say it to us while she’s living. It has always been about Mom’s needs, not ours. I, for one, plan to put her RIP HAYWIRE

Is demand pricing coming to Disney parks? Walt Disney Parks and Resorts may be considering charging more for high-demand days during summer, the Christmas holiday and spring break, and less for off-peak days, a survey the company sent to park visitors suggests. In an online survey sent to annual pass holders, the Walt Disney Co.’s theme park operation sought opinions on a pricing schedule for daily tickets to the company’s resorts in Orlando, Florida, and Anaheim, California. A three-tiered pricing system would mark daily tickets as Gold, Silver and Bronze. Gold tickets could be used every day of the year, according to the survey; Silver tickets could be used every day except peak days and popular holiday weeks. Bronze admission passes could be used only on offpeak weekends.

Under the scenario depicted in the survey, one-day, one-park admission prices for Disneyland would range from $115 for Gold tickets, $105 for Silver and $99 for Bronze tickets. Disneyland now charges a fixed price of $99 for one-day tickets that can be used any day of the year. The park would offer a volume discount for buying more than one ticket, under the scenario. A one-day ticket to visit both Disneyland and California Adventure would range from $155 to $170, according to the survey. The online survey seems to be an attempt to ease crowding at the park by charging higher prices for peak demand days. The survey asks the annual pass holders if they would visit more often or less often under the proposed pricing scheme. Disney officials downplayed the

survey, saying the company routinely seeks out the opinions of park guests on a wide range of topics. The pricing scenario outlined in the survey got mixed reviews on social media sites. “Not in favor of this,” wrote a visitor to the website Themeparkinsider. com. “To me, it just seems like a way for Disney to get more money out of visitors and is just an additional complication.” The survey comes as the company struggles with an overcrowding problem at the Anaheim park. During a 24-hour party to launch the 60th anniversary celebration at Disneyland two weeks ago, the park entrance gates were temporarily closed twice when the park reached capacity — an estimated 80,000 guests, according to park insiders.
