The five-way race for Snohomish County executive will be narrowed to two following Tuesday’s primary ballot by mail. Voters also have a spate of other decisions to make.

More than 20 Snohomish County block parties are planned Tuesday for this annual event to support anti-crime efforts and strengthen relationships between neighborhoods and police.

After 16 years, 19 Emmy Awards and more blistering one-liners than we can count, Stewart bids farewell Thursday (11 p.m., Comedy Central) to the fake newscast that gleefully skewered blowhards in the media and politics, and made an indelible mark on late-night TV.

OSO MUDSLIDE

Families still await buyouts “They won’t even promise us a date, so I can go on with my life,” one victim says, 16 months after the disaster.

By Rikki King and Noah Haglund Herald Writers

OSO — The wait seems endless, with dates that keep shifting and questions that

go unanswered.

Sixteen months after the massive mudslide, families who lost loved ones and houses aren’t sure when they might see federal buyouts. For some, that means the difference between dreams

of a new permanent home and putting plans on hold because too much is unknown.

It feels like a constant ulcer, chewing on them, said Tim Ward, who suffered lifechanging injuries and lost his wife and home in the slide.

“They won’t even promise us a date, so I can go on with my life,” he said.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency announced in June that it would award the county $6.6 million in grants for voluntary buyouts in the slide zone. That would pay for a first round of buyouts. The county and families hope more buyout See OSO, back page, this section

KAYAK POINT — Biologists and volunteers took to the beach last week to dig up, identify, measure and weigh clams at Kayak Point Park.

The Pacific Shellfish Institute and Stillaguamish River Clean Water District have partnered to study clam populations along that stretch of shoreline.

Research biologists with the shellfish institute are investigating whether Kayak Point could be seeded with clam larvae and eventually reopened for public digging.

They plan to have a feasibility study done by the end of the year.

The report will look at clam populations, public interest in digging, cost of seeding the beach and suggestions or concerns from the county, state and

The former Food Pavilion in downtown Arlington will house a Grocery Outlet and a Dollar Tree, and is expected to be open by year’s end.

By Kari Bray Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — More options are on the way for grocery shoppers in downtown Arlington as a former Food Pavilion gets remodeled for two new stores.

A Grocery Outlet and Dollar Tree are expected to settle into the building at the corner of Highway 530 and Broadway Street, city officials announced. The stores are on track to open by the end of the year. Contractors recently repaved the parking lot and are working on the interior of the building.

Grocery Outlet specializes in discount shopping, said Melissa Porter, vice president of marketing for the company.

In recent years, the stores have focused on the growing demand for natural, organic health foods, which has been very successful in Western Washington, she said.

The Arlington store will carry basics like milk, eggs, bread and butter, she said, but most other products tend to have short shelf lives because the company buys and sells seasonal or specialty items for low prices.

The Food Pavilion closed abruptly in October, leaving shoppers in the lurch. It was the second Arlington grocery store to close in 2014. The Haggen at 20115 74th Ave. NE shut down in June 2014 and the building remains empty.

People worried the buildings would end up like another former Food Pavilion, on Highway 531 in Smokey Point, which has been vacant since August 2005. The big beige building is spotted with faded marks from graffiti that’s been repeatedly scrubbed away.

“I think just about everybody was frustrated that we were pretty well limited to Safeway or Walmart,” said Stacie Roark, managing director of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce.

Clams: Beach is well loved From Page A1

with the state Department of Fish and Wildlife. The beach, pier and playground still are packed on sunny days.

Recreational clam digging seasons for beaches are determined by the estimated populations of Manila and native littleneck clams. Where local tribes have treaty fishing rights, the season is based on how many clams can be sustainably harvested divided by two — half for the tribes and half for public digging.

If there aren’t enough clams, there is no season. A sharp decline in the littleneck population sparked the Kayak Point closure, Speck said. It started with closures on alternating years in the mid-90s before closing to clam diggers completely.

The littleneck population went from declining to plummeting around 2001, said Aimee Christy, a biologist with the Pacific Shellfish Institute. The beach’s history of large harvests and an unusually bad freeze in November that year likely caused the drop, she said.

Kayak Point is an easy to access beach that’s close to cities, so it draws a lot of people. The 1995 clam season, one of the last before closures started, had 1,672 diggers, Speck said.

Popularity puts a lot of strain on clam populations, said Brady Blake, who works with Speck at the Department of Fish and Wildlife. It could cost

UW exchange student and Snohomish County Public Works intern Senait Gebreeysus (left) and EdCC student Valerie Chan (right) help EdCC student Skyler Elmstrom identify species of clams, just part of the challenge, which also involves weighing, measuring and recording the condition of all samples brought in by volunteer diggers from 48 marked sites, Thursday at Kayak Point Park beach.

$10,000 or more a year to seed the beach with manila clams, he said, and the season likely would be short because the beach is so well loved. Blake isn’t ready to say whether it would be possible to reopen the beach for clam digging.

“A decade ago, it was somewhat realistic,” he said. “We didn’t quite have the pressure on the resource that we have now.”

Kayak Point is one of the busiest beaches along Port Susan. The bay’s shoreline once was fertile ground for clam digging, but channelizations, diking of the lower Stillaguamish River in the 1940s and agricultural runoff did a lot of damage to shellfish beds close to shore, said Mike McHugh, shellfish program manager for the Tulalip Tribes.

The tribes have fishing rights in the area and harvest shellfish from Vashon Island up to the Canadian border. They have not developed a clam fishery in Port Susan because it’s not viable with the low shellfish populations there, he said. Many of the other beds are richer than those near Kayak Point.

There is some crab in the deeper waters of Port Susan, farther from the silted up mouth of the Stillaguamish River, McHugh said, “but as far as hardshell clams go, nothing is really there.”

The Pacific Shellfish Institute hopes to get specific numbers for Kayak Point to see whether the clam population is recovering, declining or stagnant.

Middleton and Christy led a group of 12 volunteers for the population survey.

They covered about 3,000 feet of shoreline, with plots set about 100 feet apart. Teams dug a foot into the wet sand at low tide and loaded clams into orange mesh bags.

The bags went into coolers.

Volunteers then identified each clam’s species, measured and weighed them, and recorded the data in a table. They counted varnish, Manila, macoma, butter clams and cockles along with littleneck clams.

After being examined, the shellfish were returned to the beach.

“You guys don’t have a lot of recreational shellfish beaches around here for public use, so we just want to see what it would take for this beach to reopen,” Middleton said.

Volunteers Bruce Henson, 59, and his 11-year-old grandson, Nolan, live in

Smokey Point and often visit Kayak Point Park.

Henson used to dig for clams around the bay but the research dig was Nolan’s first chance.

“There are very few opportunities in the area anymore,” Henson said.

“I just hope this research would eventually help with the clam population. There are a few, but it’s nothing like it was 30 years ago.”

Volunteers learned a lot about clams, Nolan said.

By the end of Thursday, the first day of the survey, the group had dug up, studied and returned about 200 clams.

“I think there’s not a lot of clams,” Nolan said. “But there are some big ones.”

Fire districts mull merger District 3 and District 7 will meet later this month to discuss “what the combined organization would look like.”

By Rikki King Herald Writer

CLEARVIEW — Two Snohomish County fire districts are talking about a merger.

This time, it’s a new pairing: District 3 in Monroe and District 7, with headquarters in Clearview.

The two share a border along the Snohomish River and together would cover 115 square miles.

“We have been working collaboratively together, looking at the finances and the efficiencies,” District 7 Fire Chief Gary

Meek said.

Options include signing a contract, merging or forming a regional fire authority. That’s a new government body that would collect taxes and provide emergency services. One also is being explored for Marysville.

Merger talks between fire districts are common across the county as agencies try to share resources and reduce duplication. The negotiations sometimes go on for months and months and then stall out.

District 7 spent years in such talks with District 1, based in unincorporated Everett.

District 1, which serves much of southwest county, now is courting Lynnwood to take over its city fire department. The firefighter unions from District 1 and Lynnwood issued a joint statement in June in support of the proposal.

At the same time, District 7 still is negotiating a new contract with Mill Creek. Its agreement with that city runs out next year.

As for the conversation between District 7 and Monroe, a joint board meeting is set for Aug. 17. Both chiefs and their assistant chiefs will go over “what the combined organization would look like,” Meek said.

It starts at 7 p.m. at Fire Station 71, 8010 180th St. SE. The districts earlier this month

already announced a new kind of partnership. Together with Lake Stevens firefighters, they’re funding a community paramedic program to serve all three agencies. A community paramedic visits frequent 911 callers to try to address problems before an emergency medical response is needed.

The success of that new partnership made them optimistic about working together, Meek said.

Consolidation often is more cost-effective, Monroe Assistant Fire Chief Steve Guptill said.

“Our administrations have been talking quite a bit recently,” he said.

Sultan seeks to save its past Mural memorializing firefighters hasn’t weathered elements well

Nature at root of new school Five Acre Farm Learning Center near Monroe has room for six students, who will split their time between the classroom and outdoors.

MONROE — At a new preschool here, kids will be listening to Mozart in a barn, collecting eggs from a chicken coup, feeding farm animals and tending a garden.

Teacher Korista Minney is putting an outdoorsy spin on early-childhood education with a program that combines daycare and preschool.

Five Acre Farm Learning Center is located about six minutes south of Monroe. It is set to open later this month once the six student spots are filled.

Minney, 24, worked as a nanny before studying early-childhood education at Central Washington University. But she decided she wanted to teach in a different See SCHOOL, Page A8

SULTAN — Volunteers here are working to save a mural that memorializes the city’s firefighters.

Donna Murphy is spearheading an effort to preserve the mural painted by well-known Monroe artist David Hose on the south side of the Sultan Post Office.

“It’s close to everybody’s heart and soul here in Sultan,” Murphy said.

People started raising $12,000 to commission the mural after Sultan’s centennial celebration in 2005. But it hasn’t weathered the elements well, Murphy said.

Now, volunteers are raising money to blow up a high resolution photo that was taken by Ray Coleman before the mural started to age. The photo will be put on a covered vinyl sign to go over the existing mural.

“It’ll be just as beautiful as the real deal,” Murphy said.

Steve Boek, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Sultan, owns the sign company that will be doing the work. He said he hasn’t had a chance to firm

Hose completed the mural in 2008 on the post office building, which previously housed the fire department. He painted the three-panel mural over the garage doors that were used for the fire trucks.

Hose said most of the firefighters in the mural are based on real people. He made up the man who is fixing a tire to make the mural a little more interesting, he said. The boy in the Cub Scout uniform also is fictitious.

The mural includes firefighter Dan Lohr, who was killed in the line of duty in 1986.

The other firefighters are Genevieve Jelinek, John Van Trojen, Andrew McLaurin and Ron Bertholf.

“The mural is part of the history of this community that is so well depicted by David Hose,” said Sultan Fire Chief Merlin Halverson, whose likeness is also on the mural. “It has firefighters from the past and some of us who are still here.”

Former fire chiefs on the mural are Roger Knowlton, Louie Jelinek and Deputy Chief Ken Hopkins. Louie’s wife, Doris Jelinek, also is on the mural.

So he painted a bowl of zucchini in front of Max in the mural.

There’s a story behind almost every detail of the mural. Hose said he gave the memorial such careful attention to give it meaning to the people of Sultan.

Hose has painted about 30 murals in Snohomish County public places during the past decade. He particularly enjoys painting memorials, such as the one for the Sultan firefighters.

“I’d be happy to keep working until I fall off my ladder,” Hose, 70, said. “At least I’ll have a smile on my face when I hit the cement.”

Me, I’m more annoyed by the mosquito bites.

From Page A3

Julie Moore, a spokeswoman with Lynnwood, talked to the city’s traffic engineer and responded: “In Washington state, U-turns are legal at signalized intersections when the driver has a green light, unless otherwise noted. They do have a responsibility to make the maneuver safely, ensuring they yield to other drivers.

Sometimes drivers that would be taking a right turn (to the U-turn driver’s left) have a green arrow.”

For the record, then, U-turns are legal at 200th and 44th — but not when oncoming traffic is making that protected right turn.

More broadly, state law allows U-turns pretty much anywhere as long as it’s safe to do so. U-turns are never allowed on a curve or when approaching the crest of a hill.

Snider raised a concern about the intersection of 172nd Street NE and 27th Avenue NE outside the Costco and Target complex at Smokey Point.

There are two lanes for right turns there.

“I live in Stanwood and head to northbound I-5 from that intersection, so am always turning right from the left-most right turn lane,” Snider wrote.

“Can I turn right on a red light from this inside lane?”

If she did, she noted she ran the risk of being dinged by oncoming traffic turning from westbound 172nd onto southbound 27th, which have no marking to guide their travel and tended to cross into the path she would take if she did attempt the turn.

So, she waited and the folks behind her honked incessantly.

Adding to the confusion are cars making U-turns there.

“A sign on the signal light and clear lane markings would make the traffic here flow easier and reduce some of the confusion that currently exists,” she said.

Street Smarts took her comment to the Washington State Department of Transportation, which in this case confirmed the wisdom of Snider’s urge to wait out the red light.

In fact, they decided to make it official.

If you haven’t noticed already, signs now bar right turns on red lights from the inside lane.

Peggy Marie (Thompson) Doph Peggy Marie (Thompson)

Doph passed away peacefully on July 30, 2015. We are all so grateful that every one of her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were able to say good bye with their individual expressions of love.

She was born March 28, 1926, to Joel and Zeta Thompson in Markham, Washington. Peggy grew up in Everett, Wash. spending time with her sisters, Vernis, B e r n i s a n d B e t t y. W h i l e growing up during the Depression years, the Everett Public Librar y was a great source of happiness in their lives. This inspired Peggy’s love of reading that continued her entire life.

Before Peggy graduated from Everett High School in 1944, she met the love of her life, on June 25, 1943.

It was love at first sight, and she and Bert were married on Januar y 5, 1945. Their 62 year marriage was a beautiful inspiration to their children, grandchildren, and all that knew them.

Armed with the inspiration from her father that “she could be the President of the United States or be anything that she put her mind to” she set on the path of becoming a successful woman. Peggy started her working years at Everett Trust and Savings Bank. In 1946 she put her career on hold so that she and Bert could start their family. Upon returning to work she became that successful woman by working up to the position of a Vice President. Peggy made a career change in 1982 founding the Peggy Doph Agency, a marketing and public relations firm.

Through the years, Peggy was known as a pillar and guide for many in the community. Some of Peggy’s interests included; The General Hospital Foundation, Hospice of Snohomish County, Ar ts Council of Snohomish County, Everett Community College, Edmonds Commun i t y C o l l e g e , Wa s h i n g to n Press Association, United W a y, a n d N a v y L e a g u e .

There are many more associations and committees that are too numerous to mention. In 1993 she was chosen as one of Everett’s “Centennial Citizens”.

She took great pride in providing a loving home life for Bert and their children. Activities that Peggy enjoyed included; gardening, sewing, canning, traveling (local and a b ro a d ) , c a m p i n g a t t h e o c e a n , b a k i n g , a t te n d i n g functions and sports events for their children and grandchildren, reading and dancing with Bert.

Peggy will be remembered for her tenacity, work ethic, quick wit, her love of the Arts and Music, attention to detail in ever ything she touched and her friendship and compassion for others.

Traffic in the far-right turn lane can still turn on red after first coming to a complete stop.

“In general drivers are allowed to make a right turn from the right lane on a red light after coming to a complete stop at any location, unless it’s posted otherwise,” Pearce added.

“That includes locations where there are two right turn lanes.”

Malaysia seeks aid in debris search

ACROSS THE U.S.

Wildfires continue to force evacuations

By Eileen Ng and Thomas Adamson Associated Press

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Malaysian officials said Sunday that they would seek help from territories near the island where a suspected piece of the missing Malaysia Airlines jet was discovered to try to find more plane debris.

A new piece of debris, meanwhile, found Sunday on the French island of Reunion in the western Indian Ocean turned out to be a “domestic ladder,” and doesn’t belong to a plane, Malaysian Director General of Civil Aviation Azharuddin Abdul Rahman told The Associated Press amid media reports that a new plane part was found.

Malaysian government officials will ask territories near Reunion to alert them if they find any debris that could be from a plane, a transport ministry official said on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to speak to the media.

A wing flap suspected to be from the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 was found Wednesday on Reunion. It arrived Saturday at a French military testing facility, where it will be analyzed by experts.

Air safety investigators, including one from Boeing, have identified the component as a flaperon from the trailing edge of a Boeing 777 wing, a U.S. official has said. Flight 370 is the only missing 777 and many are convinced the flap comes from the ill-fated jet.

The new piece of debris found on a beach near the town of Saint-Denis on Sunday morning had nothing to do with the investigation involving the missing Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, Rahman said.

“I’m the one leading the investigation in France for the analysis of the (wing flap) piece brought back. I read all over media it (the new debris) was part of a door,” he told the AP by phone from France. “But I checked with the Civil Aviation Authority, and people on the ground in Reunion, and it was just a domestic ladder.”

Malaysia’s transport ministry confirmed Sunday that the flaperon that was found has been identified as being from a 777, saying it had been verified by French authorities together with Boeing, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board and a Malaysian team.

Experts will try to establish whether the part comes from Flight 370, which disappeared on March 8, 2014, while en route from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing with 239 people on board.

A plume of steam billows from the coal-fired Merrimack Station in Bow, New Hampshire, on Jan. 20. President Barack Obama on Monday will unveil the final version of his unprecedented regulations clamping down on carbon dioxide emissions from existing U.S. power plants. The Obama administration first proposed the rule last year. Opponents plan to sue immediately to stop the rule’s implementation.

Doubling down on greenhouse gas Obama to require steeper emissions cuts from U.S. power plants.

By Josh Lederman Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Aiming to jolt the rest of the world to action, President Barack Obama moved ahead Sunday with even tougher greenhouse gas cuts on American power plants, setting up a certain confrontation in the courts with energy producers and Republican-led states.

In finalizing the unprecedented pollution controls, Obama was installing the core of his ambitious and controversial plan to drastically reduce overall U.S. emissions, as he works to secure a legacy on fighting global warming.

Yet it will be up to Obama’s successor to implement his plan, which reverberated across the 2016 presidential campaign trail.

Opponents planned to sue immediately, and to ask the courts to block the rule temporarily. Many states have threatened not to comply.

The Obama administration estimated the emissions limits will cost $8.4 billion annually by 2030. The actual price won’t be clear until states decide how they’ll reach their targets. But energy industry advocates said the revision makes Obama’s mandate even more burdensome, costly and difficult to achieve.

“They are wrong,” Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Gina McCarthy said flatly, accusing opponents of promulgating a “doomsday” scenario.

Last year, the Obama

administration proposed the first greenhouse gas limits on existing power plants in U.S. history, triggering a yearlong review and more than 4 million public comments. On Monday, Obama was to unveil the final rule publicly at an event at the White House.

“Climate change is not a problem for another generation,” Obama said in a video posted to Facebook. “Not anymore.”

The final version imposes stricter carbon dioxide limits on states than was previously expected: a 32 percent cut by 2030, compared to 2005 levels, the White House said.

Obama’s proposed version last year called only for a 30 percent cut.

Immediately, Obama’s plan became a point of controversy in the 2016 presidential race, with Hillary Rodham Clinton voicing her strong support and using it to criticize her GOP opponents for failing to offer a credible alternative.

“It’s a good plan, and as president, I’d defend it,” Clinton said.

On the Republican side, Marco Rubio, a Florida senator, predicted increases in electricity bills would be “catastrophic,” while former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush called the rule “irresponsible and overreaching.”

“Climate change will not be solved by grabbing power from states or slowly hollowing out our economy,” Bush said.

Obama’s rule assigns customized targets to each state, then leaves it up to the state to determine how to meet them.

Prodded by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., a number of Republican governors have said

they simply won’t comply. If states refuse to submit plans, the EPA has the authority to impose its own plan, and McCarthy said the administration would release a model federal plan that states could adopt right away.

Another key change to the initial proposal marks a major shift for Obama on natural gas, which the president has championed as a “bridge fuel” whose growing use can help the U.S. wean itself off dirtier coal power while ramping up renewable energy capacity.

The final version aims to keep the share of natural gas in the nation’s power mix at current levels.

Under the final rule, states will also have an additional two years — until 2022 — to comply, yielding to complaints that the original deadline was too soon. They’ll also have an additional year to submit their implementation plans to Washington.

In an attempt to encourage earlier action, the federal government plans to offer credits to states that boost renewable sources like wind and solar in 2020 and 2021. States could store those credits away to offset pollution emitted after the compliance period starts in 2022.

Twenty to 30 states were poised to join the energy industry in suing over the rule as soon as it’s formally published, said Scott Segal, a lobbyist with the firm Bracewell and Giuliani who represents utilities. The Obama administration has a mixed track record in fending off legal challenges to its climate rules. GOP leaders in Congress were also weighing various legislative maneuvers to try to block the rule.

2nd American allegedly hunted lion illegally Associated Press HARARE, Zimbabwe — Now there are two: Zimbabwe accused a Pennsylvania doctor Sunday of illegally killing a lion in April, adding to the outcry over a Minnesota dentist the African government wants to extradite for killing a wellknown lion named Cecil in early July.

Zimbabwe’s National Parks and Wildlife Management Authority accused Jan Casimir Seski, of Murrysville, Pennsylvania, of shooting the lion with a bow and arrow in April near Hwange National Park, without approval, on land where it was not allowed.

Landowner Headman Sibanda was arrested and is assisting police, it said.

Seski is a gynecological

oncologist who directs the Center for Bloodless Medicine and Surgery at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh.

He’s also an active big-game hunter, according to safari outfitters and bow-hunting sites where kill shots identify “Dr. Jan Seski” as the man standing next to slain animals including elephants, a hippo, an ostrich and antelopes such as an impala, a kudu and a nyala.

The Associated Press called and knocked on the door at Seski’s home, which is set back among some woods outside Pittsburgh. The AP also left a message with an answering service for his medical practice, with no immediate response.

One image on the Melorani Safaris Facebook page, since taken down, showed Seski posing with the body of a

small antelope in 2012, with a caption saying it was killed two days after he shot it with an arrow. Other captions described how his arrows penetrated organs and split bones.

“This Zimbabwe elephant is the sixth African elephant shot

by Dr. Jan Seski,” Alaska Bowhunting Supply claims in a caption dated September 2014, below a picture of the doctor posing above the dead beast’s trunk and tusks.

“The arrow was shot quartering into the elephant, penetrated a rib and one lung, lacerated the heart and liver, and was recovered in the gut.

The elephant went a short distance and died. With results like this, no wonder Jan is a firm supporter of our UltraMagnum Arrow System.”

Alaska Bowhunting Supply

didn’t immediately respond Sunday to a request for comment, and it wasn’t clear how the hunting supply company learned such details about the hunt.

Images of the doctor wearing camouflage and holding high-powered bows match those on Seski’s website, where he wears a suit or hospital scrubs. His address and other identifying information given by authorities in Zimbabwe matches those of U.S. medical authorities.

A handful of Seski’s neighbors said he mostly keeps to himself and that he’d been buying up the land around his property.

Ernest Hahn said Seski put up no-trespassing signs, breaking the rural area’s tradition of people feeling free to cross property lines to hunt.

LOWER LAKE, Calif. — Wildfires blazing in several Western states Sunday chewed up forests and threatened homes but were most numerous in Northern California where dozens are raging and setting off evacuations. The biggest California wildfire — raging in the Lower Lake area north of San Francisco — spread overnight to cover even more drought-stricken ground, expanding more than 30 acres in four or five hours, said California’s Forestry and Fire Protection Director Ken Pimlott.

The fast-moving blaze had charred 71 square miles by Sunday. The fire has destroyed 24 homes and 26 outbuildings and was threatening 5,000 homes.

Wildfires also are burning in Washington and Oregon. A lightning-caused fire in Central Washington has burned more than 9 square miles near Lake Chelan, growing thousands of acres between Saturday and Sunday. A fire burning in forestland in southwest Oregon has spread to more than 23 square miles.

About 35 families have been evacuated from their homes and another 100 families have been told to prepare to leave.

Tenn.: Officer fatally shot Tennessee police officials Sunday identified a suspect in the fatal shooting of a Memphis police officer, and an intense search for the man is underway. Tremaine Wilbourn, 29, faces a first-degree murder charge in the death of Officer Sean Bolton, 33, on Saturday night, Memphis Police Director Toney Armstrong said at a news conference.

Armstrong said Wilbourn was a passenger in a 2002 Mercedes Benz that was parked illegally in a southeast Memphis neighborhood on Saturday night.

Armstrong said Bolton saw the car and shined his squad car’s spotlight on the vehicle. Bolton then got out of his car and walked toward the Mercedes, Armstrong said. Wilbourn got out of the Mercedes, confronted Bolton, and they got into a physical struggle, Armstrong said. Wilbourn then took out a gun and fired it, striking Bolton multiple times, Armstrong said. The officer died at a hospital.

Fla.: NASA display NASA is offering up wreckage from the Challenger and Columbia for public view after hiding it from the world for decades. A new exhibit at Kennedy Space Center features two pieces of debris, one from each lost shuttle, as well as poignant, personal reminders of the 14 astronauts killed in flight. It is an unprecedented collection of artifacts — the first time that any Challenger or Columbia remains have been openly displayed.

NASA’s intent is to show how the astronauts lived, rather than how they died.

As such, there are no pictures in the “Forever Remembered” exhibit of Challenger breaking apart in the Florida sky nearly 30 years ago or Columbia debris raining down on Texas 12 years ago.

AROUND THE WORLD Nigeria: Camps destroyed Nigerian troops rescued 178 people from Boko Haram in attacks that destroyed several camps of the Islamic extremists in the northeast of the country, an army statement said Sunday.

Spokesman Col. Tukur Gusau said that 101 of those freed are children, along with 67 women and 10 men. The Nigerian Air Force reported killing “a large number” of militants in repelling an attack on Bitta village, 30 miles southwest of the army operations that took place around Bama, 45 miles southeast of Maiduguri city. Maiduguri is the birthplace of Boko Haram and the capital of northeastern Borno state. Sunday’s statements did not specify when the attacks occurred. Last week the army rescued 71 kidnapped people.

Qatar: Nuke deal concerns U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is in Qatar talks with Arab officials whose countries are wary of the nuclear deal world powers have struck with Iran.

Kerry arrived in the Qatari capital Sunday after visiting Egypt, where he also spoke in favor of the agreement reached with Iran last month in Vienna. The Sunni-ruled Gulf Arab states fear Shiite Iran’s increasing assertiveness in the region. In Cairo, Kerry acknowledged Iran’s negative role but said it would be easier to deal with if Tehran cannot develop a nuclear weapon. “Iran is engaged in destabilizing activities in the region — and that is why it is so important to ensure that Iran’s nuclear program remains wholly peaceful,” he told reporters at news conference with Egypt’s foreign minister.

Ready to take ATS to the next level

By Jim Davis The Herald Business Journal Editor

EVERETT — Aviation Technical Services is growing and expects to continue to grow. And to do so, the company needs experienced leadership.

That’s why Aviation Technical Services, more commonly known as ATS, tapped Brian Hirshman to serve as the company’s president.

He’s working with CEO Matt Yerbic to manage the Everettbased company that provides maintenance, repair and overhaul services for commercial airlines.

“What we’re talking about is my primary goal is really to help Matt and the team grow the company and take it to the next level,” Hirshman said. “We think there is a real opportunity in the marketplace.”

Hirshman, who joined ATS full time in May, will fill a key role for the company.

“We’re excited to have him on board for his depth of experience in the industry and, not unlike myself, he kind of worked his way up from the ground level at an airline and understands it deeply,” Yerbic said. “I think that’s an important part of our ability to understand our customers’ needs.”

The pair worked with each other 16 years ago at Alaska Airlines in Seattle where Yerbic was in charge of ground operations and Hirshman was in charge of the maintenance side.

“We always joke with each other,” Hirshman said. “You never know who is going to work for whom next so we have to be inherently nice to each other.”

With more than 1,250 employees, ATS is the second largest aerospace employer in the state and one of the biggest maintenance, repair and overhaul companies in the world. Some of its customers include Qantas Airlines, Southwest Airlines and Alaska Airlines.

As a company, ATS conducts regular maintenance for airlines and makes repairs when needed.

The company also overhauls planes for commercial airlines.

That could be as simple as changing out seats and painting a new livery on a used plane to as complex as replacing the back end to include a larger kitchen and more bathrooms.

The company works on about 30 planes in Everett each month and about 40 planes a month companywide. ATS has been around for 45 years starting under the name Tramco in Renton in 1970. In 2013, Aviation

DAN BATES / THE HERALD

ATS President Brian Hirshman pauses outside a Boeing 737 that ATS is restoring.

Technical Services was purchased by a group of investors led by Yerbic. Since then, ATS has expanded, opening a facility in Moses Lake in 2013. Last year, it opened a facility in Kansas City, Missouri, and, in December, it bought Texas Air Composites, a Fort Worth-based firm that specializes in composite materials.

All of those pieces allow the company to provide more services for airlines.

“We think there’s a real opportunity in the marketplace to consolidate some of these companies and expand our capabilities so we’re a more integrated supplier to our customers,” Hirshman said.

One of the reasons they believe there’s an opportunity to grow is the health of the major airlines in the country, Yerbic said.

“First of all, the business itself is tied very closely to the health of the airline business,” Yerbic said.

“In general, by most people’s estimation, I think the airline industry is as healthy as it ever has been.”

We think there’s a real opportunity in the marketplace to consolidate some of these companies and expand our capabilities so we’re a more integrated supplier to our customers.

— Brian Hirshman, Aviation Technical Services president

Hirshman still lives in Dallas, but keeps an apartment in Kirkland. He said he’s usually on the road traveling to meet with clients. He has been in the aerospace industry for 25 years, starting out as an aircraft mechanic for Northwest Airlines and eventually working his way into management for the company.

He worked for Alaska Airlines, then Oliver Wyman Consulting in Dallas, and then Macquarie Captial, also in Dallas. (He was part of Macquarie Capital

when it purchased ATS in 2007; that was the group that sold the company to Yerbic and his investors.)

Hirshman went back to airlines when he worked for Southwest Airlines from 2010 to 2014 as senior vice president of operations. He left the company last year and started consulting for ATS. “He uniquely has been on the bank side of the business, the airline side of the business and the consulting side of the business so he’s very rounded in terms of

how he views the world and the needs of all of those constituents,” Yerbic said.

In Europe, companies like Lufthansa Technik provide all of the services that an airline needs to acquire a plane and keep it flying safely in a one-stop shopping company.

ATS can be like that, Hirshman said.

“In the U.S., we think there’s opportunity to build that type of model and we think we’re very well-suited to do that,” he said.

To do so, the company needs to continue to expand. Part of that growth can be organic at existing facilities, Hirshman said.

ATS could add a second shift or start working seven days a week at the Fort Worth plant. It could also expand by acquiring more companies.

And that makes for an exciting time, Yerbic said.

“It’s time to make sure we have the resources we need to continue to grow a good company,” Yerbic said.

Hiring ex-offenders can benefit business, community

W

biz bits

ould you hire someone convicted of a felony to work in your business?

The instant answer from most employers is a resounding “No.” As the competition for workers continues to grow, however, companies willing to overlook mistakes of the past can tap into a large pool of skilled workers.

A Princeton University study estimates that 20 million adults in the United States have a felony conviction. Put another way, nearly one in 10 workers applying for a job has to face the prospect of being disqualified by a past conviction.

These numbers are the result of tough-on-crime policies from the 1980s and ’90s, which included mandatory prison sentences for minor drug offenses. President

Obama commuted the sentences of 46 drug offenders last week, and Congress is weighing the Smarter Sentencing Act, which could provide more sweeping relief.

After leaving the confines of prison, however, entering the doors of the workplace is a challenge.

Standard job applications ask blanket questions about criminal history, and employers often discard applications if a person “checks the box” that they have a criminal history. Many employers may not be aware that laws in Washington state place limits on what history can be considered. The Washington Human Rights Commission guidelines state that employers should not ask about convictions unless the

Randy Bolerjack has joined Washington State University North Puget Sound as the director of communications and public relations. Bolerjack spent five years as a public affairs and government relations consultant in Edmonds and Seattle, and most recently directed communications and public relations for the Mercer Island School District, winning statewide recognition for his work.

conviction is related to the job and occurred within the past 10 years. Additionally, employers who use credit-reporting agencies for background checks face additional federal regulations.

Failure to follow these guidelines may expose your business to civil liabilities.

Aside from regulatory compliance, being open to hiring a worker with a criminal history can benefit your business in several ways: Overlooked talent: Just because someone has a conviction does not mean they do not have strong skills your company may need. These skills may have been acquired during incarceration or through traditional education and experience. A mistake in the eyes of the law may

not invalidate someone’s capabilities in the workplace.

Better retention rates: Employee turnover is a costly proposition, and is especially hard on small businesses without dedicated recruitment and training for staff. A study by Johns Hopkins University found long term retention rates of more than 80 percent for ex-offenders, with less than 1 percent being terminated for cause. If an organization is willing to give someone a second chance, that employee is likely to feel a sense of loyalty and drive to help the business succeed and grow.

IN OUR VIEW | Election 2016

Move up presidential primary You may yet get your opportunity to help nominate Donald Trump or any other candidate among the Republicans and Democrats running for president in 2016.

Earlier this spring it appeared the state would skip a presidential primary, instead allowing the state parties to use the caucus system to allocate delegates for each party’s choice before the national conventions next summer.

Secretary of State Kim Wyman, a Republican, had proposed legislation this year that sought reforms to the presidential primary. It would have permanently moved the date up to the second Tuesday in March, a week after Super Tuesday, and it would have required each party to allocate “some” delegates to the national conventions based on the primary results rather than solely through the caucus system. “Some” was liberally

defined; one candidate based on primary results would have been sufficient, Wyman said.

The leverage Wyman and others used to win support for the reforms was the threat that the primary would be canceled if the legislation failed.

While the reforms passed in the Senate, they died in the House, and it appeared the primary was dead. Republicans were supportive, but many Democrats objected, concerned the primary would undermine the caucus system. But even as the reform bill failed, the Legislature still allocated the $11.5 million in the state budget that will be necessary to reimburse each county for its costs in running the election.

Wyman still wants to run the presidential primary, but only if she can convince representatives of both parties to move it up from May 24 to March 8.

Wyman plans to convene a

committee later this month of herself, the chairman and vice chairman of the state Republican and Democratic parties and the majority and minority leaders in the House and Senate. To win approval she needs a 6-3 vote.

The $11.5 million is worth spending, Wyman said in a recent meeting with The Herald Editorial Board, but only if the election is meaningful.

A week after Super Tuesday and the primary is meaningful with most candidates still in the running; by May 24, it could be all over ’cept the shouting. And the balloon and confetti drops.

If she can’t convince the panel to move up the primary’s date, she’ll ask the governor to call the Legislature to a special session to cancel the May 24 primary and save the state $11.5 million. Even if the primary returns, it will still be up to each party as to

how the results will — or won’t — influence the allocation of delegates.

We see two reasons to have the earlier presidential primary. First, as Wyman notes, the primary would have 10 times the public participation that the caucuses have.

Increasing turnout in elections and encouraging participation in the presidential campaign, as an early primary could do, is a worthwhile goal. Second, assuming the parties take some guidance from the results, the primary can help parties avoid what happened to the Republican Party in 1988 when its caucus system was manipulated and televangelist Pat Robinson was nominated for president, a result that Wyman considers “a national embarrassment.”

Besides, if we’re going to have to sit through campaign ads, we should at least get to mark a ballot.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■STATE REVENUE

The world over, taxes only grow Regarding the letter, “Income tax would always go higher”: Quote: “...no matter what direction we go, many of us know Washington state will never be satisfied...”

Over in Europe, the Norwegian government is stacking up enormous wealth from oil exploration/development but outside hapless taxpayers’ scrutiny.

And instead of keeping prices lower than in all of Europe — which would be affordable and make sense — politicians demand the highest gasoline price of the whole world. Negatively affecting transport cost and consumer prices.

Maybe Norwegians are advised to stay home? Car buying, for example, activates a 100 percent tax!

■■GAS TAX

Government loves the revenue When you purchase groceries or tires or most any other product from a local business you, receive a receipt. On this receipt is the sub-total or the amount you pay for the product. Then there is the tax, normally the amount and the rate is provided. In Marysville for instance, a receipt for taxable household goods at a local store would show about 8.8 percent. People should know how much of their money goes toward the goods and how much goes to funding the government.

There are several businesses, however, that do not show this tax rate. Gas stations for example, do not print the tax rate on their receipts. If you ask the attendant what the tax portion of your purchase is, most cases they will not know. This is not the businesses fault.

In the next two years our state will achieve the privilege of being in the top three most expensive tax states on gas. Every year, the federal, state and local governments seek to incrementally raise this tax. When gas prices go up the politicians howl like crazy about collusion and price fixing by “Big Oil,” when in reality, the government makes five to eight times more per gallon of gas than the oil companies.

Their howling is most likely because consumption may drop rather than

the price consumers pay.

When you purchase a gallon of gas in Marysville your tax rates (rounded) are 50 cents (state), 18 cents (fed) and about 2 cents (local). I can’t verify the local tax easily so it’s a low estimate.

Total that up and you have 70 cents per gallon or 24 percent based on $3 per gallon.

What would your reaction be if you bought other products and paid a 24 percent tax? I am willing to bet the howling would be in a different direction. Our local politicians however, think you will “like” the tax increase.

Don Thompson Lake Steven

■■CONGRESS

Support bill to help save lives Regarding the article, “ ‘A Full Life,’ Jimmy Carter at 90 remains a wise truth teller”: Jimmy Carter continues to be an inspiration for all of us.

One way to be the “champion of peace” and human rights he talks about is to pass the bill introduced by Sens.

Collins and Coons last week to “end preventable deaths of mothers, newborns, and young children in developing nations.” This bill will create a more efficient USAID that will transparently use allocated money to work on ending the nearly 17,000 daily

Duty to protect, not kill them When our Makers put us here, we were given the responsibility of protecting and sharing our world with many other species. Somehow our species became entitled and arrogant, greedy and just plain ignorant. We thought these creatures were ours to do with whatever we wanted to, so we began killing them off by the millions and millions.

Now we are sharing space with a mere fraction of the animals we were once meant to live in peace with. We have murdered them for adornment, for makeup, for meat, fur and for fun. The animals meant to be used for food are plentiful ... those who were not meant for food are suffering and being lost to us forever.

To think someone would rather see the decapitated head of a glorious animal on their wall rather than watching it live in the wild, flourishing and enjoying its life makes me sick inside.

Some rhinos now have 24-hour body guards ... our elephants are disappearing by the hundreds and now Cecil, a beloved ambassador for all lions, was senselessly murdered by an arrogant “big game hunter” from Minnesota. His name isn’t even relevant. Cecil’s name is. God bless you, Cecil, and all your wild brothers and sisters who have left this life at the hands of some ignorant trophy hunter. I long to see you

Susan Martin Everett

■■PRIORITIES

Wrong to value lions over people So Cecil the lion merits a name and a half page story about his “outrageous” death.

Perhaps we should assign a name to every baby that Planned Parenthood aborts, and then crunches to death in a special way so as not to harm the “important parts.”

Planned Parenthood receives approximately $500 million a year in taxpayer funds, which by federal law it cannot spend on abortions, but how can we know where such large amounts of taxpayer money is really being spent? Instead of thoughtful commentary, we get a stupid cartoon about a woman putting locks on men’s pelvic areas and a letter from a woman who does not know that Americans are the greatest adopters in the world, going out of their way to adopt children of every nationality and disability. In fact, our daughter and son-in-law adopted such a child, adding her to their already large family.

So let’s stop with the old saw about pro-lifers being unwilling to adopt the babies who would be available had they not been killed. Americans would be lined up for them, and you know it. And just for the record, I am not an old man, I am an old woman, and I have been furiously against abortion since I was a young woman. It is wrong to say that only men are against abortions, and even more wrong to denigrate them because they are.

Videos forcing an honest look at abortion

I

t took three videos showing Planned Parenthood doctors and executives discussing the culling and retailing of aborted baby parts, but Hillary Clinton finally managed to say that she found the videos “disturbing.”

For a professional politician like Clinton, whose every word is vetted by the vast right KATHLEEN PARKER lobe of her brain, “disturbing” in the vernacular of less-scripted folk would be something like “horrifying” or “vile.”

But Clinton, whose base includes supporters of Planned Parenthood (PP), as well as the mega-fundraising, pro-choice Emily’s List, tiptoed out on a limb. I wouldn’t go so far as to call it brave, but I also wouldn’t underestimate its significance. Even a passionately pro-choice presidential candidate has to pause at this juncture.

A tipping point may have already been reached, however, as people recoil from that which cannot be denied. Where once many could avert our eyes from the details of abortion, the details are now all we see and, thanks to the videos, hear.

In this excerpt from a fourth video, released Thursday, Dr. Savita Ginde, medical director and vice president of Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains; Jess, a PP medical assistant; and two actors posing as fetal tissue buyers discuss a product of termination: Jess: Head, arms, I don’t see any legs. Did you see the legs?

Ginde: I didn’t really look, but — A buyer: Yea, there it goes. Yup, you got all of them right there.

Jess: Another boy. Should I just put it ...

Ginde: Yea, just put it over here, I’ll wash it out. Yea, so you guys staying the night or are you leaving?

Buyer: Leaving ...

Ginde: Do you have a car?

Just another day in the baby parts biz.

Just another boy.

The videos, made clandestinely over a three-year period by an anti-abortion group, are being released incrementally for sustained effect. It’s working.

Planned Parenthood, faced with a renewed push for federal defunding (to the tune of a half a billion dollars), has begun a public relations campaign of its own. As of Friday, two ads had been released, each featuring a breast-cancer survivor who says she wouldn’t have survived without the health care she received at PP. But is this true? Negligibly.

Planned Parenthood offers only a manual breast exam that any woman can do herself — and performs no mammograms. Rather, they refer women to other clinics. Thus, the ads are at least exaggerated if not purposely deceptive.

Also deceptive is the claim that defunding Planned Parenthood would strip women of health care. In fact, a Senate bill to defund Planned Parenthood, coauthored by Rand Paul and Joni Ernst, specifically stipulates that all of its public funding be reallocated to federally qualified community health centers, which provide all women’s health care services except abortion, without regard to a person’s ability to pay.

In other words, Planned Parenthood would still be able to provide abortions.

And abortion opponents would no longer have to worry that their tax money was going to an abortion provider.

The Senate bill is expected to come up for a vote Monday evening. As of Friday afternoon, pro-life Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine were trying to cobble together an alternative to the defunding bill. Collins has expressed concern that defunding would deprive women in her state of health care. But would it, really?

Maine has four Planned Parenthood installations and 135 community health centers that could accommodate women’s basic health needs. Throughout the country, community centers vastly outnumber PP, totaling 9,059 to 669. It would appear that women could still get the health care they need.

In final ironies in this theater of the grotesque, PP doctors performing abortions often use sonograms so they can ensure that the imminently deceased baby’s organs aren’t damaged. Yet, Planned Parenthood has persistently fought “informed consent” laws requiring that women be shown their sonograms preabortion, arguing that abortion is hard enough without showing women what they’re about to destroy.

Some might even call it disturbing.

money is coming.

The FEMA Hazard Grant covers 75 percent of the cost, with the state Military Department and the county splitting the rest.

The county has received a Housing and Urban Development, or HUD, grant to cover its portion.

The County Council is scheduled to vote Aug. 19 on actions that would allow the county to begin the buyout process.

The March 22, 2014, mudslide killed 43 people.

Survivors now are being told that people who didn’t have flood insurance might see checks in October.

People who did have flood insurance might get word about their buyouts after that. FEMA wants to avoid duplicating any benefits from flood insurance.

The agency has implied there will be a second round of buyouts, but hasn’t provided specifics.

Ward expects to be in that second group. Like others, he received some compensation from the National Flood Insurance Program.

“It shouldn’t take months,” Ward said. He’s been staying in a rental home in Arlington, debating where to buy property and how to afford it. One of his former neighbors from Steelhead Drive is living in a travel trailer.

The buyout process — like many disaster relief programs — has been a complicated mix of federal, state and local agencies.

Away from those layers of bureaucracy, the debris field remains a place fraught with emotion.

Reports of trespassing and souvenir-collecting are a torment to survivors, who see the slide as a graveyard and as sacred ground.

The county’s next step for buyouts is to reach out to the property owners. For those who agree to a buyout, what follows should resemble a typical real

threatened by the blaze near the intersection of Old Pipeline and Woods Creek roads.

The state is working to extinguish the blaze from the air with a helicopter, she said.

estate deal, said Heather Kelly, the county official overseeing the long-term recovery.

“That will go through escrow and title, just like any other real estate transaction,” Kelly said. “It will take roughly six to eight weeks.”

Property titles must be clear, meaning the county can’t buy properties encumbered by liens or other restrictions. Some families still are dealing with banks that won’t forgive their mortgages.

FEMA sets the rules, not the county, Kelly said.

“We’re administering the grant, but it’s FEMA’s program and we have to follow their guidance and directives,” she said.

The Pszonka family lost six people in the slide. They want the buyouts to happen in hopes the state or federal government would better secure the debris field. Between April 9, 2014, and May 23, 2015, the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office received more than two dozen reports of trespassing and theft in the slide zone. Often, there was too little information to investigate or people were gone when deputies arrived.

Last week, some of the families set out painted rocks in the memorial peace grove planted at the slide. They do art projects together to heal. On any given visit to Oso, they see people walking around the dirt, Jessica Pszonka-Lutz said. Her family stays away on weekends for that very reason.

“It makes us physically ill,” she said.

Before the slide, her parents, Karen and Tom, had been planning to join her sister, Katie, in living on Steelhead Drive.

Karen and Tom Pszonka just recently moved in with Jessica in Silvana. They are trying to make a fresh start, not to forget their memories but to embrace new ones.

Karen owns a small blue notebook where she keeps track of her phone calls.

Since the slide, she has a hard time remembering names and dates. She still doesn’t sleep through the night.

They see friends from Oso struggling. The buyouts always come up at the weekly support groups, Karen said. The process feels like “13 million meetings,” plus the phone calls that go in circles, she said.

When she makes her calls, “the county points at the state and the state points at the county,” she said. A representative from the governor’s office kept telling her, “We’re doing the best we can.”

“Let’s start disbursing it and let these people get on with their lives,” she said.

“You get nervous.”

Her daughter, Katie, was a working mom and spoiled her two boys with Happy Meals. A friend of the family saw Happy Meal toys in the mud earlier this year, left them alone, and the toys later disappeared, she said.

“What could you possibly get out of taking items out of this area? I don’t get it,” she said. “That part’s really tough.”

For the first phase of buyouts, Snohomish County is authorized to buy out 62 parcels that FEMA has deemed eligible.

Under FEMA’s rules, the county could offer preslide values for the properties. Altogether, the county’s request involves 118 parcels.

The buyouts are separate from plans to commemorate the loss with a permanent memorial alongside Highway 530. For that memorial, the county has purchased 13 acres near Steelhead Drive.

The county is working with families on the design and location, Kelly said.

“It’s going to take time to make this the right memorial for the community for the next 50, 100 years or longer,” Kelly said.

building has had problems with vandalism and loitering. Those issues have been mostly cleaned up since September, when the Arlington Police Department opened a satellite station in Smokey Point, Roark said.

Still, it would be helpful to get a new business in the building, she said.

City officials agree.

The staff is trying to connect potential tenants with property owners, City Administrator Paul Ellis said.

The vacancy rate in Arlington is relatively low, he said, but the old Food Pavilion on Highway

531 has been chronically vacant “even after many attempts to help facilitate a match.” The location is good, Ellis said, but the details of lease negotiations are beyond the city’s control.

Owners of the Haggen building on Highway 9 have not spoken with city staff, he said. He’s not sure whether there are any plans for the property.

Calls to Seattle-based Merlone Geier Partners, which owns the former Haggen, were not returned.

Answers to homeschooling questions

DAILY CROSSWORD

W

ith increasing frequency over the past 10 years or so, parents have asked me various questions about homeschooling, all pretty much boiling down to “Should I homeschool my child?”

First, I am a proponent of homeschooling. (Full disclosure: I am on the board of parentalrights.org, which is an offshoot of the Home School Legal Defense Fund, and have spoken at numerous homeschool conferences). I believe it is the right of parents to direct and control their children’s education.

Second, homeschooling is not “one size fits all.” Some parents are more suited to homeschooling than others. That same statement also applies to children.

Homeschooling is not likely to be successful unless both parent and child are well-suited to the process.

Third, one of the biggest stumbling blocks in homeschool culture is the mistaken belief that successful homeschooling requires lots of involvement on the part of the homeschooling parent. That is simply not true, and I gather it irritates some homeschool moms when I say as much.

Homeschooling is a twoway process. A parent does not

JOHN ROSEMOND LIVING WITH CHILDREN have to be highly educated in order to homeschool successfully, but regardless of academic credentials, the motivation to further one’s self-education needs to be there. A parent who wants to turn their home into the most effective educational environment possible should tune the television to learning channels only (e.g. Discovery, History), read a preponderance of non-fiction, and read a lot. The more one knows about a broad range of topics and issues, the more one will be able to transmit.

I do not generally recommend attempting homeschooling if disobedience is a major discipline issue in the home. Behavioral issues of that sort are going to contaminate the process and need to be resolved before homeschooling is undertaken. The same applies to a child who does not want to be homeschooled. If there’s question

as to whether homeschooling is going to work, begin in early to mid-July. If for whatever reason or reasons it obviously isn’t going to be productive, the child can start “regular school” on time with his or her peers.

High involvement on the part of a homeschooling parent is likely to turn into micromanagement and create push-back from the child. First, there are homeschool curricula that do not require a high level of parental involvement. Second, the best homeschool structure involves the parent teaching for 10 to 15 minutes, giving a 30 minute class assignment which the child does independently, grading the paper (immediate feedback), then moving on to the next instructional module. Minimizing parent involvement maximizes student responsibility.

Maximum homeschool success is generally obtained within the context of a homeschool cooperative. A parent who wants to explore this education option should get in touch with their state homeschool coordinator, find a homeschool cooperative in his or her area, talk to other homeschooling parents, and attend a homeschool conference.

Lesbian mom’s son getting new siblings Dear Abby: I am a 22-year-old male and my brother, “Brian,” is 14.

When I was 9, our parents split up. After a year, Mom realized she was a lesbian. She is married now to a younger woman, and they are starting a family through in vitro fertilization. Mom’s wife is carrying twins — a boy and a girl.

When I first heard about their plans to conceive, I was devastated. After a few months, Mom and I were able to reconnect and talk about it. I’m happy they’re happy, but I’m still uncomfortable with the situation.

When the children are born, I am unsure how I will be known. Mom says Brian and I will have “a sister and a brother.”

Brian is excited that he will no longer be the youngest. But at my age, as a business owner and in a serious relationship, I prefer to consider Brian my sibling, not the twins. I will love the babies because they are connected to me, but I’m leaning toward being called their uncle or cousin because the twins will not be my blood relations.

I guess I’m “old school,” and with all the changes I’ve experienced in my life I’m not sure I want all of a sudden to say I have new siblings. Is this OK? — Finding My Way In Connecticut Dear Finding: I don’t think you have to announce anything when your mother’s children are born. As long as your relationship with them is a loving one, I don’t think the “label” matters.

Dear Abby: My boyfriend, “Patrick,” and I have been dating for a year and a half. He’s an incredibly sweet guy who treats me right. My family loves him RIP HAYWIRE

and his family loves me. I can’t see myself being with anyone else.

The problem is, he’s very stubborn about certain things — like his health.

It’s a constant battle to get him to go to the doctor or dentist. I worry about him sometimes when he is ill. When he insists he doesn’t want to see a doctor, it makes me feel like he doesn’t care about making sure he’s healthy enough to spend the rest of his life with me.

Patrick is my first serious boyfriend, so I’m not sure if this is just a “guy thing” or if it’s just HIS problem.

Am I wrong to be upset that he cares so little about his health, or should I let him be? — Proactive In Louisiana Dear Proactive: You appear to be wrongly attributing your boyfriend’s reluctance to see a doctor or dentist to a personal rejection. It may be a “guy thing” — or there may be other reasons. Have you asked him if he even has a health care provider he could contact, whether he has insurance to cover it, or whether he is afraid of doctors? Some people are — and the same goes for dentists. It’s important that you know what you’re dealing with. Until you understand the reason for his resistance, you won’t be able to help him resolve the problem.

East shifted to the jack of diamonds, and South had to fail.

Few players would call South’s taking the A-K of trumps a mistake — that play looked natural and normal — but South loses nothing by ruffing a spade at Trick Two, then leading to a high trump and ruffing a spade.

South next takes dummy’s second high trump. He ruffs another spade and cashes the A-K of clubs, A-K of diamonds and queen of clubs, as East must follow suit. South then leads dummy’s last club at the 12th trick, and whatever East does, South scores his

Dan Rather isn’t the retiring type

By David Bauder Associated Press

NEW YORK — At age 83, Dan Rather is starting over.

The veteran broadcaster has quietly shut down the “Dan Rather Reports” newsmagazine he’d been making since leaving CBS News a decade ago and opened an independent production company, with seed money from AXS-TV founder Mark Cuban in exchange for a series of interviews with entertainers. His “News & Guts” firm is even working on a scripted fiction series.

Rather has also signed on for reporting and analysis at the website Mashable, where his story urging people not to get too wound up about the early stages of the 2016 presidential campaign appeared this week.

Retirement? Not an option.

“I love to work,” Rather said. “I have my flaws and I’ve made a lot of mistakes, but I’ve always loved covering news and I have a passion for covering news.

I couldn’t see myself not doing it as long as I have my health.

“I’d much rather wear out than rust out,” he said.

Rather moves more slowly and speaks more softly than during his days as chief CBS News anchor.

A piece of paper with two of Cuban’s email addresses sits prominently on his desk; the Internet entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner has been Rather’s patron in his post-CBS years.

Although widely unseen, Rather’s newsmagazine

ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE

In this Oct. 5, 2011, photo, former CBS News anchor Dan Rather attends the premiere of “The Ides of March” in New York.

took on tough topics like underage prostitution, flaws in electronic voting, floating garbage dumps at sea and temporary housing that made many hurricane victims sick. AXS-TV, formerly HDNet, is available in less than half of the nation’s TV homes. While far more than when Rather started, the audience is a fraction of CBS’ “60 Minutes,” where Rather once figured to spend his last working years. The switch to the music-focused AXS-TV meant the newsmagazine was out of place.

Rather now hosts “The Big Interview,” a format that placed the hard-bitten former White House correspondent with personalities like Emmylou Harris, Trisha Yearwood, Don Rickles, Dolly Parton, Aaron Sorkin, Josh Groban and Weird Al Yankovic for hour-long programs. Interviews with Dwight Yoakam and Bob Weir are upcoming in August.

“We discontinued ‘Dan

Rather Reports’ because ‘The Big Interview’ was working so well,” Cuban said. “Dan is the best in the business and the quality of interviews he is doing is incredible. I wanted more of them.”

Watching the courtly Rather interviewing Jack White in Nashville, Tennessee, was a culture shock.

Rather dressed down — suit jacket and open-necked shirt — while the natty White was in a suit and tie.

One can imagine the White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army” booming from Rather’s office as he prepped for the piece. He described White as “one of the great guitar heroes of our time.”

Rather kept his questions simple and broad to make the interview appealing to those only generally acquainted with White’s work. The musician, who clearly respected Rather and his background, responded with interesting stories.

If Rather considers

the interviews as being beneath his former heights, he doesn’t show it.

“This is very meaningful work in that it keeps us in business while we look around for other things to do,” he said. “We also continue looking to find a home to do the kind of work that is deepest within me and deepest within the people here — and that is first-class, quality journalism and deep-digging investigative reporting.”

Rather’s exit from CBS was memorably ugly, stemming from his participation in a discredited 2004 story about President George W. Bush’s military service.

He stood by the story and sued his former employer for breach of contract, a case thrown out by New York courts after many bitter words exchanged and much money spent. With CBS’ corporate ownership intact, Rather doesn’t expect the relationship to be repaired.

“I would hope so, but I have to emphasize there is no empirical evidence anywhere that I can find that it’s likely to happen,” he said. “I don’t think about it much anymore. It was a long time ago.”

How much this drives a man who covered the Kennedy assassination, Watergate, the disputed 2000 election, the 9/11 attacks to continue to prove himself to CBS News, only a psychiatrist would truly know.

Rather said it’s too early to reveal specific series that News & Guts is working on, for fear some ideas might be stolen.

2015 SEAHAWKS TRAINING CAMP

DAVID J. PHILLIP / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Seahawks middle linebacker Bobby Wagner signed a $43 million, four-year contract extension with the Seahawks late Saturday night.

Seahawks do it again

Bobby Wagner, who after signing a contract Saturday night is now the highest-paid middle linebacker in NFL history, is another example of the Seahawks doing what the rest of the salary-capped league says teams can’t do.

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — From berated and doubted, poked and prodded before the draft to the highestpaid middle linebacker in NFL history.

It’s been an extraordinary, now-unprecedented three years for Bobby Wagner.

When Wagner was coming out of Utah State as a senior before the 2012 draft, he made the customary rounds of visits to NFL teams. His worst stop, by far: Seattle.

First came a sit-down with then-Seahawks linebackers coach Ken Norton. The threetime Super Bowl-champion linebacker and intimidating coach basically embarrassed the young Wagner, who didn’t figure out until later Norton was testing his mental toughness.

“He probably lowered my guard down,” Wagner said of Norton, now Oakland’s defensive

To be in this position right now, it’s truly a blessing.”

coordinator, following Sunday’s training-camp practice at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. “We watched probably 40 plays. The first five were the best plays I’ve ever seen at Utah State.

“The next 35 were THE WORST plays I had at Utah State.

“He just killed me. Every single play,” Wagner said.

“He’s a great dude. I appreciate him. I’ve got to thank him.

He definitely made me the player

that I am.”

Wagner now is the highestpaid middle linebacker in NFL history. He signed his $43 million, four-year contract extension with the Seahawks late Saturday night.

He’s the anchor of the league’s best defense two years running.

He is the second of the Seahawks’ top two priorities to sign before this regular season, part of Seattle’s wowing, $130.7 million weekend in which it signed quarterback Russell Wilson and Wagner to their deals 39 hours apart.

“I’m blessed,” Wagner said.

To think, he was almost bounced by the Seahawks. General manager John Schneider was concerned with Wagner’s kidney functioning before that 2012 draft.

“After that (not-so-fun meeting with Norton) I walked into John’s office and they’re telling me that See WAGNER, Page C2

RBI double keys three-run inning as Seattle wins 4-1

MINNEAPOLIS — Not this time.

Just when it seemed the Seattle Mariners were headed toward another excruciating walk-off loss Sunday, Logan Morrison delivered an RBI double that keyed a three-run 11th inning for a 4-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins.

Sore thumb and all.

“It doesn’t really hurt unless I get jammed,” Morrison said. “So, I’m glad I didn’t get jammed.

Morrison’s drive into the rightcenter gap broke a 1-1 tie. When Austin Jackson added a two-run single later in the inning, the Mariners finally had a sufficient cushion to gain a split in the fourgame series at Target Field.

The drama all came late after Hisashi Iwakuma and Minnesota starter Mike Pelfrey matched zeroes for eight innings. The first run came on Nelson Cruz’s two-out homer in the ninth inning against Twins closer Glen Perkins.

And it was a typical Cruz missile.

He jumped a 3-0 fastball from Perkins for a 442-foot bomb that caromed off the batters’ eye beyond the center-field wall. It was Cruz’s 29th homer of the year, and his eighth in 13 games.

Kelly wins Albert Lee Cup Herald news services SEATTLE — J. Michael Kelly and his Graham Trucking U-5 crossed the finish line in second place, but after a penalty was assessed on Jimmy Shane following the race, Kelly was named the winner of the Albert Lee Cup at Seafair on Lake Washington on Sunday.

Shane, driving the Oberto boat, passed Kelly on the next to last lap in turn two en route to the checkered flag.

But Shane was assessed a oneminute penalty for encroachment on the first turn of the final lap when his boat touched Kelly’s boat, bumping him to sixth place.

Race officials reviewed video footage before assessing the penalty.

Jean Theoret moved up to second place and Scott Liddycoat finished third.

Liberty tops Storm 78-62 Herald news services NEW YORK — Tina Charles scored 29 points and the New York Liberty pulled away in the third quarter to beat the Seattle Storm 78-62 on Sunday for their fourth straight home victory.

Up 36-35 at the half, the Liberty (13-6) outscored for Storm (5-16) 24-9 in the third quarter.

Epiphanny Prince and Essence Carson each scored 11 points for the Liberty.

Seattle’s Sue Bird, the first pick of the 2002 draft, was 3 of 7 from beyond the arc to score 14 points, becoming the first player in WNBA history to score 5,000 points and amass 2,000 assists.

The Liberty inducted former star Becky Hammon into the franchise’ Ring of Honor at halftime. Hammon joined the San Antonio Spurs last year as the first full-time paid female assistant coach in the NBA and coached the Spurs’ to a summer league title last month.

“I hope we get to the point in society that this is not news anymore,” Hammon said. “(It should be) we hired this person because they’re right for the job. All that other stuff doesn’t really matter.”

Seahawks release DT McDaniel

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — The Seattle Seahawks like what they see in Brandon Mebane’s return and Ahtyba Rubin’s debut.

That became apparent Sunday morning when Seattle released starting defensive tackle Tony McDaniel, a 10-year veteran, to help pay for the weekend’s $130.7 million splurge in contract extensions to Russell Wilson and Bobby Wagner.

The move saves the Seahawks about $3 million against this year’s salary cap.

McDaniel started 29 of 32 regular-season games in his two seasons with the team, including 14 last season as the “three-technique” tackle playing in the gap between the offense’s guard and tackle. That’s the job Rubin, a sixyear starter for Cleveland until Seattle signed him to a one-year, $2.6 million contract this spring, took over in practice on Sunday.

“Yeah Rubin, we’re really excited about him,” head coach Pete Carroll said following Sunday’s practice, the first in shoulder pads since camp started on Friday. “He’s a very physical guy at the point of attack. He moves right up into that role of the big guy who can stop the line of scrimmage. He’s an unusual player in pursuit for a big man; he chases the ball like crazy. So we have a really good alternative now as he steps up.”

Mebane is the 30-year old the Seahawks chose to keep. He’s been with the team since 2007, three years before Carroll and general manager John Schneider arrived. His salary cap charge for this year, the final one of his contract, is currently $5.7 million.

Mebane has spent the last two days full go inside as the nose tackle, his return from tearing his hamstring in November. He says he began feeling back to full health in April, and now feels like he is “25 or 24.”

“Thirty years old ain’t old, man,” Mebane said.

It was too old for McDaniel on Sunday.

“It is a significant loss. Tony has been a really good core player for us, and we really liked him and what he’s brought to our club,” Carroll said. “This decision sucks, but you know we had to do something.

“By the way, in case you guys missed it, Mebane was great.

tests on my kidneys,” Wagner said. “And I’m thinking between coach Norton and them finding out about my kidneys, I thought that they weren’t going to pick me.”

The Seahawks did, in the second round. Three and a half years, two Super Bowls and an NFL title later, Wagner is an indispensable part of Seattle’s young, championship core.

“To be in this position right now,it’s truly a blessing.”

It’s also a continuation of what those around the NFL say you just can’t do in this era of salary caps and parity. Teams aren’t supposed to be able to keep young, accomplished players who want more money after winning titles. Many league observers wrote as recently as Friday that the only way the defending two-time NFC champions would be able to keep Wagner now that Wilson had signed his $87.6 million extension (making him the NFL’s second-highest paid quarterback) was to give Wagner the team’s franchise tag and oneyear deal in 2016.

Those folks weren’t inside Seahawks headquarters. There, the front office was finishing Wilson’s deal with negotiations with Wagner’s agent already weeks old. The Seahawks knew what they could give Wilson and what

ELISE AMENDOLA / ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Seahawks released starting defensive tackle Tony McDaniel on Sunday, a move that will save the team about $3 million against this year’s salary cap.

As if their weekend wasn’t busy enough, the Seahawks acquired cornerback Mohammed Seisay from Detroit in a trade announced during Sunday morning’s practice. Seattle is sending a later-round draft choice in 2016 to the Lions for the second-year man from Nebraska.

The 6-foot-2, 206-pound Seisay was on his way to the Seattle area Sunday and is expected to be on the Seahawks’ practice field Monday.

He was undrafted last year before Detroit signed him as a rookie free agent in May 2014. The Lions put him on their practice squad Aug. 31 after their final preseason cuts, then added him to the active roster for their third game. He stayed with the team the rest of the year, appearing in 13 games and a playoff game at Dallas.

“We’re light at numbers in the DB

Strong safety Kam Chancellor finished the third day of his holdout,

meaning the team could fine him up to $90,000 and counting for staying away to protest a contract that is paying the thumping strong safety and team leader $4.45 million guaranteed this season. All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman was the latest teammate to say he fully supports Chancellor’s stance. ... Sherman cannot fathom fellow All-Pro Earl Thomas missing a real game. Yet many are speculating the free safety won’t be recovered from his shoulder surgery on Feb. 24 in time to play when Seattle opens at St. Louis Sept.

13. “That’d be a pretty crazy idea, in my opinion,” Sherman said. He noted Thomas has yet to miss any of 80 regular-season games or 10 postseason ones since entering the NFL as Seattle’s first-round pick in 2010.

“He just has an itch about him, to play this game. ... He’s not the kind of guy to want that to change.” ...

The first day in shoulder pads was heavy on situational team drills such as the two-minute offense. In that drill, wide receiver Douglas McNeil impressed for the second straight day. ... The biggest cheers of the day for another sun-splashed crowd of a couple thousand at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center came when running back Marshawn Lynch ambled to the railing separating the fans from the field following practice to sign autographs. He was wearing a blue team sweatshirt with the hood up on the 83-degree day. ... FB Derrick Coleman will miss at least a week with a hamstring injury, Carroll said.

that would leave Wagner. It was a two-step proposition for the last month.

Schneider, head coach/executive vice president Pete Carroll and the unsung hero of this heyday for the Seahawks’ franchise, chief contract negotiator and salary-cap guru Matt Thomas, have locked up Kam Chancellor, Earl Thomas, Richard Sherman, K.J. Wright, Marshawn Lynch, Cliff Avril, Michael Bennett, Doug Baldwin and now Wilson and Wagner to extensions over the last two years. That’s $369.7 million in re-signings, in a league whose salary cap is $143.28 million per team this year. Whose financial structure is specifically designed to keep teams from doing what Seattle is pulling off.

All that cash doesn’t count the $40 million contract of Jimmy Graham, the league’s most accomplished tight end the last three years. Schneider and Carroll traded for that in March, to drastically upgrade an offense that threw the ball fewer times than any other team last season.

How do they do it all?

Partly through taking flyers on cheap, undrafted free agents such as wide receivers Baldwin and Jermaine Kearse and now new left guard Alvin Bailey as starters around the big-bucks core.

And partly by shedding the contracts of veterans who may or may not have been in Seattle’s core, and if they were they weren’t young enough. That includes Red Bryant, Chris

Clemons, Max Unger (traded to New Orleans for Graham) and Percy Harvin, whose $7.2 million in prorated signing-bonus savings from 2015-17 helped fit Wilson’s and Wagner’s extensions under the cap.

It now also includes Tony McDaniel. The latest move to make these re-signings work came Sunday morning when the team released its starting defensive tackle to save close to $3 million against this year’s cap.

The 30-year-old McDaniel started 29 of 32 regular-season games in his two seasons with Seattle.

Carroll smiled Sunday when it was mentioned the Seahawks are doing what everyone says can’t be done.

“Conventional wisdom and me don’t get along very well,” Carroll said.

“Honestly, way back when, when we first got here (in 2010), we wanted to (see) if we could build a team around personalities that we really thought were the ones. And it’s happened, and we’ve been able to do that. It does call for us to be committed to young guys, which we’ve done all along ... young guys are going to have to fill in the spots to compliment the guys that we’ve been able to compensate.

“I kind of like it. This is the way we wanted to go with the team.

We wanted to go with a bunch of guys that connected and tied together, and see how far that can take us. In a time when people don’t talk that way, I like that. Matty’s been great, he’s a

real pro, a real pro. He and John have worked together beautifully. They’ve got their way they work off of one another, but Matt has demonstrated tremendous consistency, commitment to the plan. He’s been an integral part of what’s going on.”

So what’s next?

With Wilson and Wagner done, all the team’s efforts turn to getting Chancellor to end his holdout and report to training camp. The team finished its third practice of it Sunday.

“The focus had to be on (Wilson and Wagner); we were in the midst of these talks for some time, so we were still working with that,” Carroll said. “But our focus is never off of Kam. He is such an integral part of this team, and we love the guy so much.

“Now we really can get after it.

I’m hoping we can get back to it as soon as possible. We miss the heck out of him.”

Wagner said the same thing.

But something says, going by Schneider’s and Carroll’s track record, they’ll be able to move some money around some way to get Chancellor in camp sooner than later.

By the way, what it is about Wagner’s kidneys that had the Schneider and the Seahawks so concerned in 2012?

Wagner revealed Sunday “my kidneys don’t function as well as they should.”

Imagine how even better the richest middle linebacker in the league would play if they did.

Gosh, he’s come out flying. I think Brandon is probably in the best shape of his life.

“So he’s ready to play nose tackle and Rubin will play threetechnique for the most part. But both those guys could flip. There will be times when we might want to match up and we’ll do different things.”

Carroll mentioned David King, Jordan Hill and Demarcus Dobbs as others for whom opportunity is knocking now that McDaniel is gone.

Hawks acquire CB Seisay

area, and we have some young guys that are doing some cool things at the safety spots that we want to see, and we don’t want to have to mix those guys at corner,” Carroll said.

“This is a guy (Seisay) that we see something special in.”

“He’s long, he’s fast, and he’s very athletic. He’s young at the spot, so he’ll be a guy that we’ll try to build and we’ll see where he fits in.”

The Seahawks are without cornerback and nickel back Jeremy Lane indefinitely; he is recovering from a compound fracture in his arm and knee surgery from February. Lane is likely to begin the season on the physically-unable-to-perform list, which will keep him out at least the first six weeks of the regular season.

Seattle is also missing reserve cornerback Tharold Simon, a fill-in starter last season. Simon is rehabilitating a shoulder injury through which he played the latter part of last season.

The Seahawks will get extra, compensatory picks in the later rounds of the 2016 draft. That’s the flip side of losing in free agency this spring starting cornerback Byron Maxwell (to Philadelphia) plus left guard James Carpenter (to the New York Jets), linebacker Malcolm Smith (to Oakland) and defensive end O’Brien Schofield (to Atlanta). Detroit could be getting one of those comp picks, potentially ranging in rounds three through seven.

Extra points

Bills’ head coach Ryan names Incognito the team’s starting left guard Associated Press PITTSFORD, N.Y. — From being labeled an NFL bully to Buffalo Bills

starter: guard Richie Incognito took a big step in his return to football following a 15-month hiatus that placed his

career in jeopardy.

Three days into training camp, coach Rex Ryan named Incognito the team’s starting left

guard. Ryan made the announcement Sunday.

Incognito is one of three offensive linemen Ryan regards as starters.

“One thing’s for sure, Richie’s a starter,” Ryan said. “He looks about as good as any of them. He really does.”

Nuno to get spot start against Rockies MINNEAPOLIS — Long reliever Vidal Nuno mentioned recently that he hoped the Mariners would give him a chance to pitch as a starter.

That chance, it appears, will come Tuesday at Colorado.

Manager Lloyd McClendon confirmed Sunday that, “As of right now, it will be Nuno to pitch on Tuesday.”

McClendon then cautioned: “I would just say it’s a spot start. I’m not saying he’s in the rotation.”

Nuno fills the vacancy created by the trade that sent J.A. Happ to Pittsburgh. Nuno has a 2.11 ERA in 18 relief appearances over 21¹/³ innings since arriving June 3 from Arizona in a trade.

“I’m excited,” he admitted. “I can’t wait.”

The Mariners opted for Nuno instead of recalling lefty Roenis Elias from Triple-A Tacoma. Elias was 4-6 with a 4.27 ERA earlier this year in 13 big-league starts but has struggled since his demotion to the Rainiers. “ I don’t think you should promote kids to the big leagues for mediocrity,” McClendon said. “You’ve got to do well. That’s one of the things we’re trying to do here; we’re trying to change the culture.

“You have to perform. He’s got to pitch well down there to be promoted.”

Elias has allowed 24 earned runs and 40 hits in 272⁄3 innings over his last six starts at Tacoma. He gave up six runs in two-thirds of an inning Saturday in a 8-4 loss to Las Vegas (Mets) at Cheney Stadium.

While Nuno hasn’t pitched more than 3¹/³ innings in his 18 relief outings, the Mariners appear positioned for what amounts to a “bullpen day” because they are carrying seven other relievers.

“He can go five (innings) easy,” McClendon said. “He’s very durable, and he’s rested now. So he’s ready to go.”

Cano vows to return A still-slowed Robinson Cano is vowing to return to the field Monday when the Mariners open a three-game series in Colorado after nursing his strained abdominal muscle through the last two games as designated hitter.

The games in Colorado will be played under National League rules, which means no DH. “I’ll be in there (Monday),” Cano said. “Even on one leg, I’m going to play.”

The Royals Alcides Escobar is held back by coach Don Wakamatsu (22) as he gestures at Toronto Blue Jays pitcher Aaron Sanchez, who was ejected for hitting Escobar during Sunday’s game. Home plate umpire Jim Wolf who ejected Sanchez, right, looks on.

Tempers flare

Benches empty as Royals fall to Blue Jays

By Andy McCullough The Kansas City Star

TORONTO — A dramatic series between the Kansas City Royals and the Toronto Blue Jays turned ugly on Sunday afternoon, as Kansas City fell, 5-2, in the finale. Neither team appeared happy with the umpiring crew, as a series of hit-by-pitches escalated into an on-field confrontation.

The benches emptied in the top of the eighth, shortly after Toronto reliever Aaron Sanchez drilled shortstop Alcides Escobar with a 97-mph fastball. Umpire Jim Wolf ejected Sanchez from the game. It was not difficult to discern intent — there were two outs, and the Blue Jays were still smarting from the previous inning, when Troy Tulowitzki was hit with a pitch and Josh Donaldson was moved off the plate by another.

The two teams met by the pitcher’s mound. There were no fisticuffs, but the anger was obvious. Royals hitting coach Dale Sveum and firstbase coach Rusty Kuntz had to restrain Edinson Volquez, who had hit Donaldson earlier in the game.

When the dust settled, hitting Escobar proved to be a mistake.

Into the game came Toronto closer Roberto Osuna. He gave up a two-run home run to Ben

Mariners From Page C1

Iwakuma carried a one-hit shutout into the bottom of the inning, but he couldn’t close out his gem. He dodged one bullet when left fielder Seth Smith ran down Eduardo Escobar’s leadoff drive at the wall.

But Brian Dozier followed with a no-doubt home run to left that tied the score.

“I didn’t think it was a bad pitch,” Iwakuma said. “He just put a good swing on it.”

Dozier’s homer was the first earned run allowed by Iwakuma against the Twins in 41 career innings. When Iwakuma allowed a two-out single to Joe Mauer, the Mariners went to the bullpen for struggling closer Carson Smith.

Smith had suffered losses in each of his three previous outings and failed to hold a one-run lead in Saturday’s walk-off loss. This time, he struck out Miguel Sano and got the game to the 10th inning.

“Obviously, as a starter, you

Zobrist, his third in the past two games.

But the Royals (62-42) could not catch up, especially after Kelvin Herrera gave up two runs in the bottom of the eight.

Toronto took three of four this weekend.

The game’s first act belonged to Volquez and Donaldson.

For three days, Donaldson had tormented Kansas City pitching. He homered on Thursday, smashed two doubles and a walk-off single on Friday and added another homer Saturday.

In his first encounter with Volquez, Donaldson never saw a pitch to hit. Instead Volquez drilled him with a 94-mph fastball near his left shoulder.

The pair shared words as Donaldson walked to first base.

Catcher Salvador Perez shooed Volquez back to the mound.

It was not the last clash between Volquez and Donaldson. Two innings later, Volquez brushed back Donaldson with a pitch near the neck. Wolf had already warned both benches, but he let Volquez remain in the game. The pitch was a changeup. When Donaldson walked to end the plate appearance, he flipped his bat like he had swatted a drive 400 feet.

The reaction befit an occurrence in the next inning. After a leadoff single by designated

hitter Edwin Encarnacion, Volquez tried to bust first baseman Chris Colabello on the hands with a 95-mph fastball. Colabello muscled a two-run homer out to center field. Volquez shook his head as the drive disappeared from sight.

In the seventh, the Blue Jays came to life again. Royals manager Ned Yost removed Volquez for lefty Franklin Morales.

Morales gave up a leadoff single to second baseman Ryan Goins. In came Ryan Madson soon after.

Madson hit the first batter he faced, shortstop Troy Tulowitzki. The pitch appeared to connect with Tulowitzki’s wrist, which incited the crowd. He stayed in the game. Donaldson was the next batter, and he reacted with fury when Madson threw a 96-mph fastball inside.

Donaldson stomped around the batter’s box, unable to comprehend a pitcher might throw inside. Blue Jays manager John Gibbons left his dugout to argue, and was ejected from the game. Jose Bautista tried to calm down Donaldson, who eventually struck out.

But soon after, Bautista bashed an RBI double over center fielder Lorenzo Cain’s head, which expanded Toronto’s lead to three. In the eighth, things only got uglier.

want to finish up the game,” Iwakuma said. “Not being able to finish is a regret. But overall, I think I did a pretty good job.”

Ketel Marte opened the 11th with a walk against Kevin Jepsen, who was making his first appearance since joining the Twins in a trade just prior to last Friday’s non-waiver deadline.

Marte took second when Jepsen bounced a pitch to Kyle Seager. The Twins challenged the call, but a replay review let it stand.

“I was safe,” said Marte, who also had three of the Mariners’ nine hits. “That wasn’t even close. I was safe.”

Seager then battled for an 11-pitch walk that included five two-strike fouls, but Jepsen struck out Cruz on a full-count fastball.

Brian Duensing then replaced Jepsen to get a left-onleft matchup against Morrison, who entered the game in the ninth inning as a pinch-runner/defensive replacement.

This was Morrison’s second at-bat since leaving last Wednesday’s game because of

deep bruise on his left thumb.

Duensing came in with a slider.

“I put a nice, easy swing on it,” Morrison said, “and barreled it up. And it found a gap.”

The Mariners led 2-1.

An intentional walk to Seth Smith loaded the bases with one out and preceded another pitching change — to Casey Fein, for a right-on-right matchup against Jackson.

That didn’t work either. Jackson pulled a two-run single into the left field that boosted the lead to three runs.

“I mean, you understand why (they walked Smith),” Jackson said, “but you take offense to it a little bit.

Tom Wilhelmsen set down the Twins in the 11th inning for his second save of the season.

Fernando Rodney (4-4) got the victory after working around a leadoff walk in the 10th.

Jepsen (2-6) got the loss.

“Maybe earlier in the season,” Morrison said, “something like that would happen — Dozier hit game-tying home run — we’d fold. Not today. And it was good to see.”

Sox strand 10, fall 3-2 to Volcanoes Herald staff SALEM — The Everett AquaSox stranded 10 baserunners in a 3-2 loss to the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes in a Northwest League baseball game on Sunday.

Steven Duggar hit a two-out RBI double and Ronnie Jebavy followed with an RBI single as Salem-Keizer took a 2-0 lead in third inning.

The Volcanoes increased their lead to 3-0 in the fifth inning when Scott Price hit his first home run of the season.

The AquaSox cut Salem-Keizer’s lead to 3-1 in the top of the seventh on Conner Hale’s RBI single. An RBI-single by Everett’s Erick Mejia reduced the Volcanoes’ lead to 3-2 in the eighth inning, but the AquaSox left the bases loaded when P. J. Jones Jr. popped out to Salem-Keizer second baseman Richard Amion to end the inning.

In the top of the ninth the AquaSox loaded the bases with two out before Salem-Keizer’s Caleb Smith came in and earned the save by retiring Mejia on a fly ball to right field to end the game.

Rays’ Moore demoted after rough outing Associated Press BOSTON — The Tampa Bay Rays have decided the minors would be the best place for lefthander Matt Moore to continue his return from Tommy John surgery.

Moore will go to Triple-A Durham and pitch on a regular schedule, Rays manager Kevin Cash said Sunday.

“There’s a couple of factors: One, this is the first time that we’ve had a chance to go to a four-man rotation,” Cash said.

“It’s definitely not fair to ask Matt Moore to go to the bullpen.”

The Rays also said that outfielder Steven Souza fractured his left hand when he was hit by Joe Kelly’s fastball Saturday. Cash said Souza, who played at Everett’s Cascade High School, will be sidelined four to six weeks.

Mikie Mahtook was recalled from Durham on Sunday to replace Souza, who was placed on the 15-day disabled list. Souza was batting .214 with 15 home runs and 34 RBI.

Kenseth stretches fuel, steals win at Pocono Associated Press

LONG POND, Pa. — Joey Logano was the first leader to fade, his tank empty with three laps left.

Martin Truex Jr. struck E with two laps to go.

Kyle Busch knew his Toyota was about out, too, his shot at a fourth straight win tapped out on the last lap.

One by one, fuel woes cost the contenders. But the pain at the pump for drivers pushing toward the finish line was the break Matt Kenseth needed to coast past them all in the final thrilling laps Sunday to win the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Pocono Raceway.

The 400-mile race came down to fuel and which cars had it — and which ones didn’t.

“I couldn’t catch them anyway but I just wanted to get as close as I could in case they ran out,”

Kenseth said.

Once they ran out, Kenseth not only had enough left in the tank to win, he pulled off a celebratory burnout.

Kenseth’s win continued the sensational summer run for Joe Gibbs Racing, making it five wins in the last six races. Busch, who had the other victories, failed in his bid to become the ninth driver since 1972 and the first since Jimmie Johnson in 2007 to win four straight Cup races.

Busch had won three straight Cup races and four of five, swept the Xfinity and Cup races last weekend at Indianapolis and won the Truck Series event Saturday at Pocono. Busch remained outside the top 30 in points, the second marker he needs to hit to qualify for the Chase.

“I wish I had saved a little more,” Busch said. “I wish I had known (Logano) was that far

from making it. It’s a shame we couldn’t get it done.”

With a win, Busch would have had the points needed to at least crack the top 30, though he’d have to stay there for the final five races before the 16-driver field is set for the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“We got greedy,” Busch said.

“But that’s the position we’re in.”

Truex was 19th, Logano 20th, and Busch 21st.

“I was saving fuel just to cushion it,” Logano said. “I thought I was going to be good and then I started running out and knew we weren’t going to make it. We were so close. You are counting down the laps in your head thinking you are going to make it but just didn’t do it. “ Brad Keselowski was second, followed by Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Greg Biffle.

Kenseth had the only position

that mattered, winning for the second time this season and for the first time ever at Pocono.

“I never thought I’d win at Pocono,” he said.

Kenseth won the fuel gamble and survived a race that resembled a demolition derby: Cars, crews, walls, equipment, all took beatings over 400 miles.

Kasey Kahne kicked off a race stuffed with carnage when his No. 5 got loose, found the opening to pit road and slammed the inside pit road wall. Kahne’s hit buckled the wall, sent helmets flying and crew members scurrying for safety.

“I saw the people and I thought to myself that those guys need to take off running and get out of the way,” Kahne said.

The race was red-flagged for about 15 minutes while the wall was repaired. No one was hurt.

Pit road proved a dangerous

place.

Keselowski slid through his pit stall and took out three members of his crew. His tire changer and tire carrier both jumped on the hood and the team jackman was clipped by the left side of No. 2 Ford. One tire got free and rolled down pit road before it came to a dead stop.

Rahal wins IndyCar race LEXINGTON, Ohio — Graham Rahal won the IndyCar race in his home state of Ohio, and in the process made up considerable ground on series leader Juan Pablo Montoya with two events remaining in the season.

Rahal held off Justin Wilson on the final restart, on the 84th of 90 laps in the 203-mile race at Mid-Ohio. Montoya, who came into the race with a 42-point lead over Rahal, finished 11th.

Rahal now trails by only nine points.

The victory was the third IndyCar win of Rahal’s career and second of the season.

Anissipour brings spinal expertise to Everett

Dr. Ali Anissipour is Western Washington Medical Group's Orthopedic, Sports, Spine & Hand Center's newest spine surgeon.

complex or a disaster is shipped there constantly,” Anissipour explained.

That means he has had experience handling cases some physicians might not see in the course of a normal practice — everything from the worst of injuries to the worst of deformities.

Anissipour has even treated a few trauma cases that were shipped to Harborview from Snohomish County. Now he hopes to be able to

take care of those types of cases locally and not have them sent down to Seattle.

“The other thing that is unique for me is I had training in Chicago that also allowed me to learn and train in minimally invasive spine surgery,” Anissipour said.

It’s great news for Snohomish County patients. Minimally invasive spinal procedures allow for a faster recovery. That means a quicker return

to work or school. It also means smaller incisions, which is desirable from the patient’s point of view, and less blood loss is important from a health perspective.

There are many new and effective treatments available for neck and back problems. Anissipour hopes people who have been trying to live with old issues — or those with new issues — will come to have those problems re-evaluated. He is happy to offer second opinions.

He also advises patients not to put off seeing a specialist when certain symptoms arise. These include severe back or neck pain, pain shooting down the legs or arms, numbness or tingling in hands and fingers, imbalance when walking or weakness in the hands or limbs.

Any of these symptoms could indicate a serious problem that is not going to heal on its own. In fact, they could get much worse without treatment.

“One thing that is quite prevalent in our population now is adult scoliosis,” Anissipour said. “That is a growing epidemic.”

Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine and it is not just something found in adolescents. Adults can develop scoliosis too, and it can continue to progress over time causing problems so it is not something to be

ignored.

“Also, something called spondylolisthesis, or instability of the spine, is another type of adult deformity that we see a lot of,” Anissipour said.

Spondylolisthesis can be mild or severe and it also can get worse over time.

Another condition often overlooked is myelopathy or spinal cord injury. It is very important for patients to be vigilant about symptoms.

Anissipour explained, “You might see symptoms

like dropping items or difficulty with fine motor activity like difficulty buttoning your buttons or your handwriting starting to get worse.”

These types of weaknesses should be checked out right away and not left to progress.

Although Anissipour has not yet started practice at the Orthopedic, Sports, Spine & Hand Center, patients are welcome to make an appointment. Call (425) 317-9119.

estern Washington Medical Group’s Orthopedic, Sports, Spine & Hand Center is about to welcome a new fellowship-trained, board-eligible orthopedic and spine surgeon. Beginning Aug. 17, Dr. Ali Anissipour will begin seeing patients in Everett.

Anissipour comes to Snohomish County from a comprehensive spinal surgery fellowship with the University of Washington and Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

Prior to that he had an award-winning orthopedic surgery residency at Midwestern University in Illinois.

“Now I’m bringing my practice to Everett,” Anissipour said. “I’ll be the spine surgeon for the Western Washington Medical Group as well as helping to cover a lot of the spinal needs for Providence Regional Medical Center. Predominantly I’ll be specializing in comprehensive spinal surgery.”

At Harborview and the University of Washington, he saw and treated the worst of the worst in spinal injuries and issues. Any case that is deemed serious enough to require the equipment and expertise of Harborview and the University of Washington may be sent in from a region that is five states wide.

Park wins Women’s British Open, 4th different major

By Steve Douglas Associated Press

TURNBERRY, Scotland — As Inbee Park hunted down Jin-Young Ko in the final stretch of the Women’s British Open, it quickly became clear which South Korean was the.... rookie and which was the player about to add another chapter in golf’s record book.

The top-ranked Park picked up seven shots in her last 12 holes, pressured

her 20-year-old protege so much she finally lost her nerve, and completed a 7-under 65 at Turnberry to capture the trophy she thought she may never win.

Park won by three shots on 12-under 276 for a seventh major title, becoming just the seventh female player to win four different majors — after Louise Suggs, Mickey Wright, Pat Bradley, Juli Inkster, Karrie Webb and Annika Sorenstam.

“I don’t know what else to go for now,” said Park, who has won six of the last 14 majors to cement her status as the best player of her generation.

How about ending the debate about clinching the so-called career Grand Slam?

The LPGA Tour is calling Park’s achievement just that. However, Park hasn’t won the France-based Evian Championship since it was given the status of a fifth major in 2013. She did win the Evian in 2012.

The Evian is staged next month, when Park can complete definitively what some are calling the “Super Slam.”

“I feel like I’ve won all the majors in women’s golf,” Park said, attempting to put a stop to the discussion.

Ko is just at the start of her golfing journey.

Playing her first major, her first tournament outside Asia and with a temporary, locally born caddie giving her advice on every shot, Ko began the last round tied for the lead and pulled three shots clear of a bunched-up chasing pack containing Park after a 20-foot putt for birdie on No. 10. She had already eagled the par-3 No. 7 with a 25-foot putt and rolled in a birdie of similar length at No. 8.

Her composure was stunning, considering the uncharted territory she was in. Ko had never played links golf before this week.

That was when Park made her move. She rolled in an eagle putt from 20 feet at No. 14 to close to within one shot, Ko missed a par putt on No. 13 soon after for her first bogey of the day, and Park then holed a

4-footer for birdie at No. 16 to take the lead for the first time this tournament.

No. 16 wound up being the deciding hole. Twenty minutes later, Ko’s chances of reclaiming the lead virtually ended on that par 4 when she pushed her approach shot straight into a burn. She took her furlined puffy coat from her caddie and looked a beaten woman for the first time this week.

Park’s birdie putt on No. 18 lipped out, but it didn’t matter. She watched on a monitor in the scoring hut as Ko — playing two groups behind — failed to make birdie on No. 17, ensuring there would be no finalhole tension.

“I really thought she was going to play really good until the end,” Park said of her friend. “I just got lucky.”

A turning point came on

No. 12 when Park drove right, into thick rough. Park could barely see the ball when she approached it, but had a stroke of luck as it had settled on a drain. She was given a free drop and made par.

“That was a definite bogey there,” Park said. ....she needed to Park said produce her best display of putting in two years to overhaul Ko, who is the latest on a conveyor belt of talent coming from the South Korean tour.

Ko was bidding to become the third firsttime major winner from South Korea in the last five majors, after Hyo-Joo Kim at the Evian last year and In-Gee Chun at the U.S. Women’s Open last month.

“They are machines,” American player Cristie Kerr said of South Korean golfers. “They practice 10 hours a day.”

Tour title, closing with a 4-under 67 for a three-stroke victory over Rickie Fowler.

The victory came a day after Merritt took the lead with a tournament-record 61 at Robert Trent Jones Golf Club. He won in his 96th career start on the tour, finishing at 18-under 266.

Rickie Fowler, who started the day a shot off the lead, made a birdie on the final hole to claim second, and David Lingmerth was third, but both had up-and-down rounds.

Fowler shot a 69 that featured seven birdies and five bogeys, and Lingmerth’s 69 included five birdies and three bogeys.

On a day when no one shot better than 67, tournament host Tiger Woods

also provided some excitement, making birdies on five of his first 10 holes to get to 10 under long before the leaders got underway.

But Woods faltered with three back-nine bogeys and shot a 68 to tie for 18th at 8 under.

Perry wins 3M title BLAINE, Minn. — Kenny Perry successfully defended his 3M Championship title, shooting a 4-under 68 for a four-stroke victory over Bernhard Langer, Scott Dunlap and Kevin Sutherland.

After shooting a 61 on Saturday to take a four-stroke lead, the 54-year-ol Perry had six birdies and two bogeys in the final round to finish at 18-under 198. He became the first player to successfully defend a title in the tournament’s 23year history.
