Park closed for cleanup Everett’s popular Legion Memorial Park is completely shut down so crews can remove smelter-contaminated dirt.

By Dan Catchpole and Noah Haglund Herald Writers

EVERETT — A popular north Everett park is closing for several months starting Tuesday while work crews clear contaminated dirt left behind by a

long-gone smelter.

The south portion of American Legion Memorial Park shut down for cleanup earlier this summer and now the rest is set to go off-limits. That includes the picnic shelter, playground, restrooms, American Legion Hall and ballfields. Legion

Memorial Golf Course will stay open.

The whole park at 145 Alverson Blvd. should reopen next spring, but the job won’t be complete.

“We will need more funding to finish the work,” said Meg Bommarito, a project manager for the state Department of Ecology.

The smelter was located near the intersection of Broadway and East Marine View Drive,

just downhill from where Legion Park is today. It only operated from 1894 until 1912. After it closed, homes gradually filled in most of the area.

Arsenic-laden smoke particles had rained down on a one-square-mile area nearby.

The worst of the contamination was near the former smelter site.

Everything for sale at auction Backer of bankrupt MicroGreen Polymers trying to recover losses

Justin Standish labels equipment with lot numbers for the now defunct MicroGreen Polymers in Arlington on Aug. 14.

Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — Justin Standish could barely move around the defunct factory in Arlington when he first stepped inside on another hot summer day.

It was packed with industrial machines and spare parts, stacks of undelivered plastic cups, bags of raw plastic resin pellets, assorted shop tools, garbage and foam balls for toy guns.

“There were a lot of Nerf balls and guns around,” he said. “I guess they had that startup mentality — play hard, work hard.”

up the place, figure out what was there, price it and get it ready to sell at public auction later this month. The creditors of the defunct company, MicroGreen Polymers, had hired his company, the Brandford Group, to sell anything that could be sold.

The goal was to wring out as many dollars as possible from the debris left in the wake of the greentech company’s sudden and dramatic crash earlier this year.

MicroGreen Polymers had rapidly grown in recent years.

To outsiders, it appeared poised to upend the food packaging industry. But while company leaders publicly talked about getting bigger, MicroGreen

internally was in a downward spiral sped by poor cost control and a string of bridge loans with crushing interest rates.

In short, everything was great — until it wasn’t.

MicroGreen Polymers went bankrupt in April, putting more than 150 people out of work.

The company’s primary financial backer, the Confederated Tribes of Grande Ronde in Oregon, had decided to cut its losses and foreclosed on MicroGreen’s secured debt.

Foreclosing meant the tribes would never get back most of the tens of millions of dollars invested in the startup.

So it is auctioning off everything that can be sold at

He was always there for kids Greg Gelderman, who was hit and killed while out for a ride, is belovedly remembered by his children and education colleagues.

By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

EVERETT — To his two children, Greg Gelderman was the dad who was always there for every sports meet and practice.

His daughter, Suzanne Rivera, remembers him driving to Snohomish, standing on a hill and waving as she glided through the water as part of a crew with the Everett Rowing Association.

“It’s not a thing parents come to watch — crew Greg practice,” she Gelderman said. “I don’t think I ever saw another parent there.”

To his education colleagues, where he worked as a principal in the Everett and Mukilteo school districts for a total of 15 years, he is remembered as someone with a fiery commitment to serving each child and his ability to inspire teachers.

“Every staff meeting was like a master class in teaching,” said Lynn Watson, a fourth-grade teacher who worked with him at Everett’s Cedar Wood Elementary School. “He made me a better teacher. It was an opportunity of a lifetime to work with someone like that.”

Gelderman, 62, died Sept. 1 while on vacation with his family in Grant County. He was out for a morning bicycle ride near Mattawa when he was struck by a car. He died at the scene.

The accident was blamed on the 38-year-old driver being temporarily blinded by the sun. A memorial service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Sept. 12 at Westgate Chapel, 22901 Edmonds Way in Edmonds.

Gelderman was a principal at Mukilteo’s Horizon and Endeavor elementary schools from 1992 to 1999 and at Everett’s Cedar Wood Elementary School and Heatherwood Middle School from 1999 to 2007. He always was on the lookout to help kids whom he felt needed it the most, whether See ALWAYS, back page, this section

Italy’s top court Auction raps Knox case From Page A1

By Frances D’emilio Associated Press

ROME — Italy’s top criminal court has scathingly faulted prosecutors for presenting a flawed and hastily constructed case against Amanda Knox and her former Italian boyfriend, saying Monday it threw out their convictions for the 2007 murder of her British roommate in part because there was no proof they were in the bedroom where the woman was fatally stabbed.

The Court of Cassation issued its formal written explanation, as required by Italian law, for its March ruling — vindicating the pair once and for all in the murder of Meredith Kercher in the apartment the two women shared while students in Perugia, Italy.

It wrote there was an “absolute lack of biological traces” of Knox, an American, or of co-defendant Raffaele Sollecito in the room or on the victim’s body.

It slammed the quality of the prosecution’s case from the start.

The path of the case took was “objectively wavering, whose oscillations are ... the result

also of stunning weakness or investigative bouts of amnesia and of blameworthy omissions of investigative activity,” the court wrote. Had the investigation not been so shaky, “in all probability” the defendants’ guilt or innocence could have been determined from the earliest stages, the panel said.

Media clamor was also a factor in what was ultimately a flawed case, the high court concluded.

“The international spotlight on the case in fact resulted in the investigation undergoing a sudden acceleration,” the judges wrote.

In March, the high court declared that Knox, now 28, and Sollecito, now 31, didn’t murder 21-year-old Kercher.

Had the Cassation Court upheld 2014 appeals court convictions of the pair, Knox would have faced 28½ years in an Italian prison, assuming she would have been extradited from the United States, while Sollecito had been facing 25 years.

Knox and Sollecito had served nearly four years in Italian prison after a first, lower court conviction by a Perugia court.

Standish has run auctions on nearly every continent for the Brandford Group. He’s used to parachuting into a new site in a different time zone.

Preparing an auction often takes weeks; he spent five weeks prepping MicroGreen. Not surprisingly, he is unmarried.

Standish is outgoing and quick to laugh. He has the sort of easygoing manner that whips up personal connections seemingly out of thin air. In between drags off the American Spirit cigarettes he smokes, he can deliver a quip in a way that seems like he shared something intimate.

While he can tell stories about partying on New Year’s Eve in Singapore, he is modest. Talking about how he got into his line of work, he will tell you he went to grad school in New Haven, Connecticut. That’s because he doesn’t want to say he got a master’s degree from Yale University.

Some assignments are for companies that have closed, such as MicroGreen. Other times, he is helping a business sell older equipment.

“Every deal is a little different,” he said. “Some jobs are very pleasant, some are scary.”

He’s been welcomed with open arms, and, on at least one job, he’s been threatened by workers who seemed to blame him for their Middle America factory jobs being moved to China, he said.

In Arlington, “it’s been nothing but pleasant,” he said.

With the plant in such disarray, Standish started clearing out one corner of the building and methodically made his way across.

At night, he often cooked dinner on a nearly new propane grill that he found at the plant.

Like almost everything at MicroGreen, the grill will be up for sale at the auction, which runs Sept. 29-30.

He filled seven dumpsters as big as shipping containers and two 18-wheeler trailers with scrap metal.

He hauled away about six dumpsters’ worth of trash.

He also had to dispose of 10-foot-tall rows of collapsed

cardboard boxes and other shipping materials. There were hundreds of bags of raw plastic resin pellets that weighed up to 1,500 pounds.

With room to work, he could start taking stock of exactly what was on site and calculate where bidding should start. Sometimes that was straightforward, such as with the 16 red tool chests filled with torque wrench sets, knee pads and other shop tools.

“If this place had been in Connecticut, these tools would be in my garage, and my tools would be for sale,” he said jokingly.

Standish left the tools in the tool chests. Usually, he would sell them separately, but this time, there were simply too many items.

“They’ll probably start at $100” for each tool chest, he said. “Somebody will get a deal.”

Other items required more work, such as with some of the production machines.

Standish has been running industrial-equipment auctions for a couple of

September 11 12 13 2015

decades and can figure out what most things are, even if he has never before seen that exact machine. Sometimes he calls up a dealer to help him price and describe the item for auction.

“The one thing you can’t be is afraid to ask questions,” he said.

As much as possible, Standish grouped similar items into lots, often piled together on a wood pallet.

He numbered each lot, and then, walking from lot to lot with a voice recorder in his hand, he meticulously described each offering.

“Lot 325,” he said as he squatted beside an orange pallet bearing several black cylinders. “Lot 325 is one lot of seven Yates — Y-AT-E-S — black, pneumatic cylinders — comma, space — and six Yates —” he paused, eyeing the items, “I’ll go 7-inch pneumatic cylinders.”

That is how he made his way through the 677 lots in the auction catalog.

He uses a mix of market value and psychology to price items, he said.

“It’s simple with something like a forklift,” he said.

Four forklifts will be up for auction.

“Everybody needs a forklift. The value is a dollar a pound. If it’s a 4,000-pound

forklift, OK, it’s worth $4,000,” give or take.

People often come to auctions looking for deals, especially on run-of-themill items such as a forklift.

So the bidding often has to start below market rate.

Otherwise, it will be a very quiet auction, he said.

Pricing MicroGreen’s customized production machines was trickier.

Lot 170 is a towering machine for converting raw material into plastic resin using MicroGreen’s cutting-edge process.

“There’s only one of those in the world,” he said, pointing at the machine, which stands more than 20 feet tall and has a flight of stairs to a wrap-around catwalk.

“How many people need that exact machine? How are you going to price it?”

It was a rhetorical question. But one that Standish has to answer before an auction begins.

The Brandford Group also is offering to sell everything in one bundle as a turnkey operation.

That would eliminate a lot of paperwork, if nothing else.

The company’s visionary co-founder, Krishna Nadella, visited the site in mid-August.

He declined to say if he is trying to put together investors to buy the company as a bundle.

A few potential turnkey buyers have expressed interest, Duncan said.

However, selling everything in one shot happens very rarely, he said.

There already 20 are people registered for the auction.

And Standish has hired a caterer for the two-day event.

“Once you’re here, I don’t want you leaving,” he said.

Man gets 5-year sentence for sword attack

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

EVERETT — Brandin Ayling blamed illicit drugs for last year’s sword attack on his grandmother, roommate and friend.

A Snohomish County Superior Court judge last week ordered the Lynnwood man to be evaluated for a drug addiction after she sentenced him to five years in prison. Judge Anita Farris also

ordered Ayling to undergo a mental health evaluation.

She banned Ayling, 25, from possessing any guns or knives.

Police found multiple knives, swords and daggers inside his house while investigating the assaults. Ayling used a two-foot sword with an 18-inch blade to attack the victims.

They said Ayling “freaked out” after using drugs. He attacked one man, striking his hands and

back. Ayling’s roommate was struck as Ayling swung the sword at the other man.

His grandmother heard the commotion from her duplex next door.

She confronted her grandson and asked if he’d cut somebody.

He swung the sword at her, striking her arm.

She ran to call 911. Ayling yelled after her, “You wouldn’t call the cops on your own grandson,

would you, Grandma?”

Ayling was wearing the sword on his hip when he was confronted by police.

He was convicted last month of three counts of second-degree assault.

Ayling didn’t admit any wrongdoing but conceded that a jury likely would convict him.

In court documents, Ayling said he never intended to harm anyone but he was under the

influence of “heavy narcotics.”

Ayling didn’t have any prior felony convictions. He was arrested for a knife-related offense in 2011, and for another sword attack in Arlington in 2010, court records show.

In the 2010 case, Ayling, then 20, was accused of threatening his mother’s boyfriend with a sword and poking the man in the chest with the weapon. That case later was dismissed.

Eryn Byrd-Peterson leads her cow, Lollipop, a 1½ year-old red Holstein, out for a short walk in the dairy cattle barn at the Evergreen State Fair on the fair’s final day Monday.

On the path to veterinary school

By Amy Nile Herald Writer

MONROE — It was a cow named May-Berrie that helped her turn her life around.

Eryn Byrd-Peterson, 17, is a senior in the FFA program at Monroe High School. She earned three blue ribbons this year for her work with cows at the Evergreen State Fair, which closed Monday.

She also received multiple honors at the state FFA competition this year.

But Eryn’s successes didn’t come easily.

She had a rocky childhood with a father who was not around and a mother who had trouble making ends meet. Eryn was placed into foster care at age 11 and was shuffled among three different homes.

At 14, she was adopted by Jessica and Russ Peterson, of Monroe.

When Eryn started at Monroe High as a freshman, she said, she was a “D” and “F”student.

That’s when she met teacher and FFA leader Anne Lowe.

“She kept ranting about this program with cows,” Eryn said.

So she decided to give it a shot.

Eryn started working in an FFA program at the Groeneveld Dairy near Sultan. Owners Chris and Anna Groeneveld allow students to adopt animals and work with them at the farm.

They learn animal husbandry and have opportunities to help the Groenevelds manage the dairy.

“The experience is more than just the animals,” Lowe said.

Beyond agricultural abilities, students pick up skills and qualities that can be used in any career, such as communication, responsibility, time management and integrity.

County tests new paving treatment

EVERETT — Snohomish County is taking the lead on a new approach to paving that could result in cheaper, faster and better upgrades to local roadways.

It’s called “ultra thin bonded wearing course” — and while

it won’t do any heavy lifting, it’s already been put to use on roads needing minor fixes for cracks and raveling.

“We’ve been investigating ways to stretch our preservation dollars for quite a number of years now, and this is one of the methods that we thought showed a lot of promise,” said Doug McCormick, a Snohomish

Power outages should be reported to the Snohomish County Public Utility District at 425-783-1001 or toll free at 877-783-1001.

The use of 911 should be for life-threatening incidents or emergency hazards, such as a power line or tree across a road.

And it is, in theory, a more durable and longer-lasting alternative than the more frequently used methods of hot-mix asphalt overlays.

EDMONDS — Police believe a former renter stole her landlord’s identity and used it to pocket roughly $30,000.

The suspect, 57, was arrested last week and booked into the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of theft and identity theft.

The case should serve as a cautionary tale, police said.

The victim, 70, contacted Edmonds police in June to report that somebody had taken out several credit cards, a bank account and a bank loan using her personal and financial information without her knowledge, according to a police report.

She became aware of the fraud when a collection agency called her about an overdue $4,500 loan in her name.

She also found out that someone had tried to open a Discover credit card account using her information. She remembered getting a credit card in the mail from Discover that had her name as well as a business name of “Golden Cleaners” on it. She threw it away.

She told police that a former renter in her home had owned a dry cleaning business in Kingston.

Police could not find the name the renter had given the Edmonds woman. They were able to find her identity by tracing the business, which was not registered with the state Department of Revenue or Secretary of State..

The victim’s credit report showed that someone had been using her identity for about two years.

Police believe the suspect was using a credit card in the victim’s name to filter checks through her dry cleaning business. A $25,000 American Express credit card balance was found under the victim’s name as well as the $4,500 small business loan.

The suspect allegedly was recorded on ATM video cashing checks through the fraudulent bank account. She was arrested Wednesday while aboard the ferry from Edmonds to Kingston.

Edmonds police Sgt. Shane Hawley said the case is a good reminder for people to take advantage of getting a free annual credit report.

He also said people opening their homes to renters should take the precaution of locking up private documents and credit card information.

“Keep them in an area that is only accessible to you,” he said.

Roads: Quieter, drier ride From Page A3

NovaChip name) on a section of Highway 17 in Soap Lake. A six-year study of its effects showed the treatment was effective in reducing both the frequency and severity of cracking. And it made for a smoother ride, too.

But not much has been done with the process since then.

Snohomish County believes its efforts this summer — in conjunction with the cities of Mill Creek, Mukilteo and Marysville — is a first for the region.

It’s a small start. In all, 6.5 miles of roadway received the new treatment, out of 105 miles of summer road repairs.

“It’s a new technology, new method we’re trying to introduce to the area,” McCormick said.

The method was developed in France in 1986, according to a Federal Highway Administration brief. In the United States, use dates to the 1990s but didn’t pick up for another decade.

Research from other

Cows From Page A3

Eryn first chose to care for a black-and-white Holstein calf named MayBerrie. The girl and her cow became quite close.

“Going to the farm, I could be myself instead of thinking of all the things that were going on around me,” Eryn said. “I could just worry about me and my cow and what we were doing right there.”

states indicate pavement life expectancies of between five and 12 years depending on what the treatment is covering up and local conditions, such as weather.

The treatment results in reportedly quieter pavement, and it also drains better, meaning less spray kicked up by tires.

And, yes, it is “ultra thin.”

Part of the cost savings comes in less material. The “ultra thin” overlay is threequarter-inch thick, while a normal overlay depth in Snohomish County is 2 inches.

Savings also come in the quick turn-around, thanks to special machinery that applies a finishing coat immediately after a first tack-like coat.

“The road is open back to traffic fairly quickly — like 20 minutes — where with a typical overlay you’re talking 2 hours,” McCormick said. That means less traffic control and flagging expenses.

The apparatus wasn’t available locally, which added some costs to the county’s initial foray.

But the county still expects savings overall.

Estimates put cost savings at about $10,000 per mile compared to a more typical overlay, said Joyce Barnes, a pavement management engineer with the county.

“Right now we fully expect to use it again,” McCormick said.

The future could see other experiments.

There’s a method that involves recycling part of the old roadway. The hot-in-place method “removes a portion of the existing asphalt roadway surface and mixes it with new emulsion (the sticky black stuff) to rejuvenate the material and then places it back down on the roadway,” McCormick said.

There’s also a warm mix asphalt method that lowers the temperature of the asphalt as it’s placed, leading to fewer emissions and better compaction, Barnes added.

The machinery used for both methods, however, is even more cumbersome than that needed for an “ultra thin” overlay. And

like the “ultra thin” application, only certain roads would be candidates.

For a list of roads that

received the “ultra thin” treatment this summer, see the Street Smarts blog at www.heraldnet.com.

May-Berrie, now 2, is milking but she still comes when Eryn calls her name.

The Holstein is pregnant and Eryn is hoping to show her heifer at the fair next year.

After raising May-Berrie, Eryn turned her attention to 2per, another Holstein.

“It’s short for two percent because that’s my favorite kind of milk,” Eryn said.

She worked with 2per, now 1½ , on showing techniques and helped get the animal used to being handled so she can transition into a working dairy

cow more easily.

“I’m close to my animals.

They’ll let me pet and love on them,” Eryn said. “Cows are cool.”

Eryn showed 2per at the fair this year. They were awarded two blue ribbons.

She also showed a red Holstein called Lollipop, earning a third blue ribbon.

The partnership between Monroe High’s FFA program and the Groeneveld Dairy allows students like Eryn, who wouldn’t otherwise have access to farm animals, to learn about

them. There are about 90 members in FFA at Monroe High.

Eryn credits her time with the cows on the farm with improving her selfesteem and her ability to approach people and talk about her work.

“Now, I can express myself,” she said. “Instead of, ‘I don’t know, I don’t care about school,’ I tell people I want to be a bovine veterinarian.”

Eryn now maintains a 3.5 grade point average.

She wants to study in the veterinary program at

Washington State University next year.

She also has also taken on commitments beyond FFA to help reach her goal of becoming an animal professional.

She joined the Junior Holstein Association and has worked with animals from other farms.

“FFA has made me a better person,” Eryn said. “The ag program gave me direction for where I was going in life.”

moving from place to place.

She says they’re different than a traditional homeless population.

Piercy said she wrote the message to prompt discussion among council and city staff about the topic, which could lead to a conversation with the public.

It’s unclear what Eugene could do to prevent people from sitting in public places.

Local ordinances prohibit people from blocking sidewalks, but courts have

ruled as unconstitutional local laws that ban loitering, panhandling and other behaviors common among homeless people and travelers.

Downtown has been a magnet for transients, generating complaints from store owners and others. Civic leaders hoped redevelopment of the city center would bring more activity and residents to the area, shrinking the portion of city-center occupants who were transients.

To discourage loitering on sidewalks and plazas, the city has removed public benches and walls that transients formerly sat or slept on, she said.

Downtown is “very different than it was before,” she said. “But we still have the issue of travelers in our communities, people who go up and down the I-5 corridor” and stop in Eugene and other cities.

The council was split on whether the issue was one it should take up.

EUGENE, Ore. — Eugene Mayor Kitty Piercy says she wants the city to have a conversation about young vagabonds occupying public spaces downtown.

The mayor sent an email to the city manager and council members saying she doesn’t want so-called “travelers” taking over public spaces. She said she’s

not judging people by their looks or lifestyle but wants public spaces to be for everyone to use.

“I don’t want travelers actually controlling, living on our corners, our plazas, our public spaces,” she wrote. “I welcome them to use them as I would expect everyone else to do. And I want benches and inviting places for all the public to freely use.”

Piercy told The RegisterGuard that the travelers have chosen a lifestyle of

Deer dine on Oregon hemp Associated Press MURPHY, Ore. — Deer got the munchies at an industrial hemp crop in southern Oregon.

The deer got by barbed-wire fencing a couple weeks ago and went through the hemp plants like high-powered mowers, the Grants Pass Daily Courier reported.

“Generally, I don’t think they like cannabis.

They liked ours, though,” said Cliff Thomason, a real estate agent who is the steward of the first industrial hemp crop in Oregon, which was planted near Murphy by Thomason and his partners with Orhempco.

The company planted roughly 1,000 plants in the section the deer got into, and Thomason said there are only about 40 left.

Industrial hemp has a low level of THC, the psychoactive property of marijuana. Kit Doyle, another partner in Orhemco, said it’s high in protein and that’s likely why the deer went on a binge.

Orhempco has several crops of industrial hemp — each planted at a different time and is in a different stage of maturity.

Doyle said the group expects to have other plants go to harvest that will produce hemp seed for sale.

The land is owned

by Josephine County Commissioner Cherryl Walker and her husband, Martin Hill.

Fellow county Commissioner Simon Hare also is a partner.

Only some of the crop is protected by the very tall fencing needed to thwart deer.

Doyle said a reason some crops were left vulnerable was because of the uncertainty surrounding the program.

A bill in the Oregon Legislature would have put Orhempco out of business had it passed the Senate.

Migrants defy police, march north Associated Press ROSZKE, Hungary — Hundreds of angry and frustrated asylum-seekers broke through police lines Monday near Hungary’s southern border with Serbia and began marching north toward Budapest, while Britain and France pledged to take in tens of thousands more refugees to try to ease the crisis.

As European leaders debated how to share responsibility for the more than 340,000 people from the Middle East, Africa and Asia who are already seeking refuge, Germany promised to spend billions of euros in extra aid for those already there and those yet to arrive.

France weighed whether increased airstrikes against Islamic State militants would help to stem the flow of those fleeing Syria.

But the Hungarian prime minister scoffed at a proposed quota system for refugees in the 28-member European Union, saying it wouldn’t work unless Europe first secured its borders.

Hungary’s inability to control the flow of people across its southern border with Serbia was on graphic display Monday. Crowds who had grown tired of waiting for buses at Hungary’s first migrant holding center near the border village of Roszke tore down flimsy police tape walked around and through rows of police trying to block them.

Police shoved individual migrants and fired jets of pepper spray, but it had little effect as about half of the 500-strong crowd reached the M5 highway that connects Serbia and Hungary. They headed north along the shoulder, chanting, “Germany! Germany!”

Police walked beside them as a lone helicopter monitored the marchers’ progress north as darkness fell. The highway was blocked for nearly 30 miles as a precaution. A few hours later, as the marchers paused by the roadside to try to sleep in the cold on the pavement, police delivered buses and requested they board for delivery to a refugee camp. Most refused.

The northward march mirrored Friday’s surge of people down Budapest’s motorway toward Austria, which forced Hungary to concede defeat and bus thousands to the Austrian border. Germany’s rail company said Monday it had

Syrian refugees react as they arrive at Lesbos, Greece, on Monday after crossing the Aegean Sea aboard a dinghy from Turkey. Greek officials said at least two-thirds of the 15,000 migrants on the island would be ferried to mainland Greece this week.

carried 22,000 asylum-seekers over the weekend on more than 100 trains, a number boosted by the fact that Hungary again has dropped visa checks on foreigners buying train tickets for the wealthier countries to the west.

Following an overnight Cabinet meeting, Germany said it would set aside 6 billion euros, or $6.6 billion, to boost aid for asylum-seekers and hire 3,000 more federal police. It also planned to make it easier to build refugee housing and for non-German speakers to hold jobs.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel reflected on what she called “a moving, in some parts breathtaking weekend behind us,” when Austria and Germany threw open their borders for thousands of asylum-seekers trying to get out of Hungary.

She said all EU countries could help accommodate the families fleeing war and poverty.

Britain and France, seen as less generous than Germany so far, overcame reluctance and stepped up their commitments Monday. British Prime Minister David Cameron said his country would resettle up to 20,000 Syrians from camps in Turkey, Jordan and Syria over the next five years.

French President Francois Hollande said his country would take in 24,000 refugees over the next two years. To relieve the burden on Germany, he told Merkel that France would take in 1,000 of the migrants who have just arrived from Hungary. Most say they are fleeing the 4-yearold civil war in Syria.

Saying France has to target “the causes of these horrors,” Hollande announced possible airstrikes against Islamic State targets in Syria, an idea he previously had resisted.

France will send reconnaissance flights over Syria starting

Tuesday, he said, and “we will be ready to strike.”

Calm returned Monday to the main Austrian-Hungarian border point, where thousands crossed over the weekend by foot, bus, train and car after complaining of neglect and human rights violations in Hungary and refusing to stay in refugee camps there.

Austrian Chancellor Werner Faymann and other EU leaders said Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban bungled Hungary’s intake of migrants so badly that it left Austria and Germany no choice but to open their borders Saturday.

Orban compared Hungary to a “black sheep” representing a voice of reason in the European flock of countries. He argued that the EU first must focus on security measures to force those from troubled lands to seek asylum in neighboring countries, not in the heart of Europe. He said the current discussions on a new quota to handle 120,000 migrants soon would lead to discussions on hosting millions more.

Migrants trying to reach the heart of Europe via Turkey, Greece, the Balkans and Hungary have faced dangers, difficulties and delays on every link of the journey.

Scuffles broke out Monday near Idomeni on Greece’s northern border with Macedonia, where police angered a 2,000-strong crowd by permitting only small groups to cross every half hour. Tensions eased when larger groups were allowed to proceed.

Greek Migration Minister Yiannis Mouzalas estimated that at least two-thirds of the more than 15,000 travelers stranded on the eastern Aegean island of Lesbos would be ferried to mainland Greece in the next five days. Lesbos bears the brunt of the refugee influx from nearby Turkey, with more than 1,000 arriving daily on small boats in often dangerous conditions.

Germany has an open-door policy for asylum seekers, particularly from Syria, but also wants to send back travelers who are only job-seekers, not war refugees.

In a late-night meeting that lasted until early Monday in Berlin, the German government decided to make it easier to deport people from stable nations such as Montenegro, Kosovo and Albania.

Clinton on email: ‘What I did was allowed’

By Catherine Lucey Associated Press

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday she does not need to apologize for using a private email account and server while at the State Department because “what I did was allowed.”

In an interview with The Associated Press during a Labor Day campaign swing through Iowa, the front-runner for the Democratic presidential nomination also said the lingering questions about her email practices while serving as President Barack Obama’s first secretary of state have not damaged her campaign.

“Not at all. It’s a distraction, certainly,” Clinton said. “But it hasn’t in any way affected the plan for our campaign, the efforts we’re making to organize here in Iowa and elsewhere in the country. And I still feel very confident about the organization and the message that my campaign is putting out.”

Clinton played down how the controversy has affected her personally as a candidate.

“As the person who has been at the center of it, not very much,” Clinton said. “I have worked really hard this summer, sticking to my game plan about how I wanted to sort of reintroduce myself to the American people.”

As she has often said in

CHARLIE NEIBERGALL / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton speaks during an interview Monday in Cedar Rapids, Iowa.

recent weeks, Clinton told AP it would have been a “better choice” for her to use separate email accounts for her personal and public business.

“I’ve also tried to not only take responsibility, because it was my decision, but to be as transparent as possible,” Clinton said.

Part of that effort, Clinton said, is answering any questions about her email “in as many different settings as I can.” She noted she has sought for nearly a year to testify before Congress about the issue, and that she is now scheduled to do so in October.

The one-on-one interview with AP was the second for Clinton in the past four days.

On Friday, she did not apologize for using a private email

system when asked by NBC. Asked Monday by the AP why she won’t directly apologize, Clinton said: “What I did was allowed. It was allowed by the State Department. The State Department has confirmed that.

“I did not send or receive any information marked classified,” Clinton said. “I take the responsibilities of handling classified materials very seriously and did so.”

Clinton’s efforts to address the email issue comes as her chief rival for the Democratic nomination, independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, exits the summer surging in still-quite-early public opinion polls and drawing massive crowds to his rallies and events.

Asked for an example of how

she differs with Sanders on policy, Clinton demurred. “I’m going to keep laying out what I would do as president, what I stand for. ... I’m very much looking forward to the debates that we’re going to have and we’ll have plenty of time to draw those contrasts.”

Last year, Clinton turned over roughly 55,000 pages of emails to the State Department that she sent and received using a home-brew email server set up at her New York home serving as secretary of state from 2009 to 2013.

Clinton has said she set up her own system instead of using a State Department account for the convenience of using a single hand-held email device.

The State Department is currently reviewing and publicly releasing those emails, some showing that Clinton received messages that were later determined to contain classified information, including some that contained material regarding the production and dissemination of U.S. intelligence.

“There is always a debate among different agencies about what something should be retroactively (marked classified),” Clinton told the AP on Monday. “But at the time, there were none. So I’m going to keep answering the questions and providing the facts so that people can understand better what happened.”

ACROSS THE U.S.

Obama grants paid leave to contractors BOSTON — Courting unions on Labor Day, President Barack Obama denounced Republicans for a “constant attack on working Americans” and said he was using his executive power to force federal contractors to give paid sick leave to their employees.

Obama was met with applause at a major union rally in Boston on Monday when he said he had signed the executive order. The Labor Day gesture came as Obama works to smooth over tensions with the labor movement over his trade agenda. Major unions are opposing Obama’s push for new trade deals with Asia and Europe, with some threatening to work against congressional Democrats who voted to support those talks. Unions say the deals could lead to the widespread job elimination.

Illinois: Slain officer buried Several hundred police officers from around the country attended a funeral Monday for a suburban Chicago lieutenant shot and killed last week. Charles Joseph Gliniewicz, who was 52 and on the cusp of retirement after more than 30 years with the Fox Lake Police Department, was shot and killed shortly after he radioed in that he was chasing three suspicious men on foot. His funeral procession wound through small-town Fox Lake and lakeside forests that were the focus of a manhunt for the still at-large suspects.

N.Y.: Gov. Cuomo aide shot The West Indian Day Parade, a celebration of Caribbean culture, rolled through New York City’s streets Monday but was marred by violence that left one man dead and an aide to Gov. Andrew Cuomo in critical condition. Cuomo identified the wounded staffer as Carey Gabay, a first deputy general counsel.

Gabay was walking with his brother near the Brooklyn parade route at 3:40 a.m. when he was caught in the crossfire between two gangs, according to police. The shooting was one of several outbursts of violence in the neighborhoods surrounding the parade, which included the stabbing death of a 24-year-old man at 2 a.m. near Grand Army Plaza. No arrests have made been in either incident, police said.

AROUND THE WORLD Moldova: Protesters camp Protesters have put up tents in Chisinau, the Moldovan capital, demanding a probe into the disappearance of up to $1.5 billion from three Moldovan banks last year. Organizers from non-governmental groups erected about 40 small tents Monday in a main square, a day after tens of thousands joined a demonstration calling on the government, the central bank governor, the general prosecutor and others to resign. An unpublished parliamentary report said some of the money was transferred to Russian banks.

Syria: UK drone kills 3 British Prime Minister David Cameron revealed Monday that British forces had used a drone strike in the Syrian city of Raqqa on Aug. 21 to kill three Islamic State fighters, including two Britons. He told Parliament that the attack was legally justified because the militants were plotting lethal attacks against Britain and the fighters could not be eliminated any other way.

Canada: Urination video Jerry Bance, a Toronto businessman running for Parliament with Conservative Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s party has been dropped by the party after being caught on video urinating in a coffee cup. Bance was recorded by the Canadian Broadcast Corp.’s hidden cameras in 2012 as he was peeing into a cup and pouring it down the sink while on a service call. The homeowner was in the next room. Bance runs an appliance repair company, and the CBC was reporting on home repair companies.

Russia: Military drills Russian military units have been scrambled from their bases as part of snap drills ordered by President Vladimir Putin, the latest in a series of Russian war games amid tensions with the West over Ukraine. The Defense Ministry said the maneuvers that began Monday will last for five days and involve forces from the Volga River all the way to eastern Siberia.

Collars monitor pets for pain

Inslee to decide fate of casino

By Sue Manning Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — You can use wearables with GPS to keep track of wandering dogs. Others help you track animals’ physical activity.

Now, two companies have the latest in wearable pet technology: collars that can check for a fever, monitor pulse and respiration, and even indicate if your pet is in pain.

PetPace, based in Burlington, Massachusetts, has a medical collar that can measure a dog’s vital signs and other information to look for signs of pain. Irregularities trigger a notice by phone, text or email.

Voyce, created by I4C Innovations Inc., and based in Chantilly, Virginia, has a consumer version that tracks similar information.

Both smart collars can be programmed to monitor for a pet’s specific illness. Dogs and cats over 8 pounds can use them.

Kenneth Herring, who lives outside Detroit, uses PetPace to monitor his 5-year-old dog, Jack, as part of a test case to see how effective the collar is in helping detect epilepsy. When Jack has a seizure, he keels over on his side, drools and may lose consciousness, Herring said. So far, his twitching limbs and lack of motion have been enough to

trigger an alert, and PetPace plans to use what they learn from Jack to tailor the collar to other dogs with epilepsy.

Michelle Saltzman, of Bedford, Massachusetts, uses PetPace for Lucas, a 10-year-old beagle she adopted in October. Lucas has a heart murmur and suffers from fainting spells, and the monitor

allows Saltzman to leave the dog home alone without worrying.

Herring said the smart collars do have limitations, including batteries that last anywhere from two days to eight weeks, depending on how much data they are asked to measure and deliver. Some of Jack’s vitals are checked every two minutes and some are checked

every 15 minutes, so the batteries drain in two days and it takes two hours to recharge — time when Jack does not have the collar on, Herring said.

One of the reasons PetPace did not put GPS on its smart collar was to save on battery power, said Dr. Asaf Dagan, PetPace’s chief veterinary scientist and co-founder.

Boeing dud is hottest used jetliner

By Julie Johnsson Bloomberg News

Nine years after production ended for Boeing Co.’s 717 jetliner, the former sales dud is one of the most sought-after aircraft in the world.

Boeing built just 155 of the 100-seaters, and most are near the age when airlines start thinking about a trade-in. But valuations and lease rates are soaring thanks to a mix of cheap fuel, Boeing’s $1.5 billion bet on ensuring the model stays in service and Delta Air Lines Inc.’s decision to use the plane as a replacement for its smallest regional jets.

Delta, Hawaiian Holdings Inc., Spain’s Volotea and Australia’s Qantas Airways are all ready to pounce if a used 717 comes onto a market that now has none to buy or rent. Their only current prospect: a plane parked in Turkmenistan,

according to FlightGlobal’s Ascend database.

“Everyone’s in them for the long haul,” said Daniel Pietrzak, Delta’s managing director for fleet transactions. “They look brand new.

They’re great.”

The 717’s surprise resurgence bucks the usual trajectory of orphan aircraft, which rarely gain popularity once assembly lines shut down. Instead, global demand has outstripped supply since Delta started assembling a large and growing fleet in 2012, taking advantage of favorable rental terms and a drop in jet-kerosene prices that makes older planes attractive.

“They’re kind of the marketmaker,” said Robert Agnew, president and chief executive officer of aviation consultant Morten Beyer & Agnew Inc. “If Delta weren’t there, the airplane might be struggling.”

Values have risen more than 17

percent this year, to range from $7.5 million to $10.5 million, while lease rates soared 22 percent after bidders jumped in when Sweden’s SAS put nine planes on the market, according to Ascend. Delta got three, Qantas snagged two and four went to budget carrier Volotea.

Once known as the MD-95, the 717 was the last jetliner developed by McDonnell Douglas Corp. before Boeing acquired the company 18 years ago. By the time the plane debuted in 1999, airlines were tilting away from 100-seaters for short-haul flying in favor of bigger jets packing in more travelers.

“It’s a very good aircraft,” said Jonathan Bogaard, a shareholder at Vedder Price and a founding member of the law firm’s global transportation finance team. “It just never caught on.”

Boeing still provides 717 engineering and spare-parts support, which is common. More unusual:

It owns 103 of the aircraft and holds operating leases worth about $1.5 billion, filings show. The Chicagobased company has helped find new homes for 717s as operators such as SAS’s Blue1 dropped the model.

Carriers like the 717’s performance on shorter flights, while the five-abreast cabin layout is favored by travelers because there’s only one middle seat per row. The plane’s revival signals that the 100seat segment of the jet market “is more robust than many believe,” Addison Schonland, an analyst with AirInsight Inc., said in a note to clients Friday.

The 717 didn’t become a hot commodity until Delta — known for spotting value in little-loved used planes — decided the model could replace cramped, 50-seat regional jets. It’s flying them between Los Angeles and San Francisco, among other routes.

Readers ask about finding right financial path

A

lthough I can’t answer all the questions during my online discussions, I try to get to some that are particularly interesting.

Many people are trying to follow the right path to pay off student loans. Or they are dealing with family and financial issues that can strain a relationship. Or they struggle with whether they should follow their passion or the money.

Let me start with student loans: “My current student loan balance is $48,233,” one reader wrote.

“I plan to stop putting money into my savings account, which currently has a balance of about $29,000. I then plan to pay off the remaining balance, which will be about $21,000, give or take, in one large lump sum. Can you give me some advice as to whether this is a good plan?”

The person has an extra $2,500 to $3,000 a month to put toward the loan balance.

There was one key piece of information that makes this aggressive debt reduction a good plan: The reader has some savings.

Readers often ask if they should

save pay

or

MICHELLE SINGLETARY down debt. You need to do both. If you have no savings and an emergency comes up, you’ll likely push yourself further into debt trying to resolve that financial crisis. But at some point when you have a solid savings balance, which this person has, you can stop saving and focus on paying down the debt.

If you have job security, or as good as that can get these days, I’m OK with taking a significant amount of the emergency-savings money and finishing off the debt.

But once the debt is erased, immediately go back to building up the emergency pot using the money you had been devoting to your loan.

Program for Investment in Microentrepreneurs. Ventures will use its award to provide training and technical assistance for low-income and very low-income entrepreneurs with household incomes at or below 80 percent of the HUD area

Another common concern for people is dealing with a relative who is financially irresponsible.

Some will argue that you should let such a person suffer if he or she digs a deep hole, so that a lesson might be learned.

But what if it’s your beloved parents?

This is the case with another reader, who wrote: “My parents live above their means. My mom quit her job to care for my nephew. They are too young for Social Security but don’t want to work anymore. Their house isn’t worth enough to support them in retirement, and even now with my dad still working, their credit card bills are getting bigger, not smaller. I’ve tried to set them up with budget software, but my mom keeps spending and won’t use it because she’s ‘afraid to look.’

I know what they need to do but can’t make them do it. What’s my responsibility as I watch this train wreck?”

In this case, it means, despite your having the knowledge to help and the foresight to see what your parents can’t, they won’t listen to you. I’ve experienced this myself with some family members.

Maybe your parents won’t accept your assistance because they still see you as a child. Sometimes friends or relatives won’t heed advice because they need to hear it from an outsider. Whatever the reason, it can be very frustrating for the person who is trying to help.

So what’s your responsibility when relatives are reckless with their money?

If you haven’t co-signed on any of their debt, you aren’t accountable for their mistakes. As long as they are legally competent — even if they are financially incompetent — you can’t take over. I know it’s wearisome to watch their financial lives crumble. Love them but don’t you go broke cleaning up their money mess. And when or if they crash, maybe then they will listen.

AIRWAY HEIGHTS — In some ways, Gov. Jay Inslee controls the economic future of the Spokane Tribe of Indians.

Inslee has the final say on whether the tribe can build a big casino resort complex in a suburb of Spokane.

The federal government has approved the off-reservation project, but it is strongly opposed by many Spokane business leaders and by the Kalispel Tribe, which already operates a lucrative casino in Airway Heights.

Inslee is weeks, if not months, away from making his decision, the governor’s office said. He has until June 2016 to decide.

Inslee’s office declined to say if the governor was leaning in a particular direction.

Meanwhile, the Spokane Tribe is using the time to prepare a case for building the $400 million casino resort, which it predicts will support 5,000 jobs and provide a major economic boost to the impoverished tribe.

“It will really help with high unemployment among tribal members,” said Carol Evans, the first female chair of the tribe. “The revenue will help with health care, scholarships, elder programs and cultural programs.”

Unemployment among members of the Spokane Tribe has been more than 30 percent for years. Tribal members also make only about two-thirds of the per capita income of other Stevens County residents.

The tribe, which has about 2,900 members, purchased land in the suburb of Airway Heights and petitioned the federal government for a rarely granted exemption that would allow it to open a casino away from its reservation.

The Kalispel Tribe, which more than a decade ago won just such an exemption in order to open the Northern Quest Casino in Airway Heights, objected to the proposal. The Kalispels, who have about 400 members, were joined by Spokane business leaders who object to additional casinos in the area, and fear the new project might help lead to the closure of Fairchild Air Force Base.

Much of the opposition to the proposed casino involves its location, only about a mile from the gates of Fairchild, which is the largest single employer in the Spokane area. Some business leaders contend that the new casino would encroach on Fairchild, which could prompt the Air Force to close the base in the future.

Several state politicians have also spoken out against the casino proposal, fearing an explosion of off-reservation casinos, especially in the Seattle area.

IN OUR VIEW | Supreme Court’s charter schools ruling

What public funding requires Yes, the timing could have been better.

The state Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling that found unconstitutional the citizen initiative that allowed for the establishment of charter schools came late Friday afternoon, before the Labor Day weekend and just days into the school year for the handful of charter schools in the state.

The ruling means those eight fledgling charter schools, which serve about 1,200 kindergarten through 12th grade students in Spokane, Tacoma, Highline and Seattle, are ineligible for state funding.

The court’s majority, in an opinion written by Chief Justice Barbara Madsen, found Initiative 1240, which created the schools, unconstitutional because it shifted funds meant for the state’s “common schools,” to schools that were not subject to the oversight

of voters through an elected school board. Instead, while receiving public funding, the initiative allowed that charter schools would be administered by an appointed board and would be free from many of the state regulations and school district policies that govern public schools. The majority, in its ruling, cited a 1909 precedent that clearly found that only the voters, through those they elect, had the authority to administer publicly supported schools.

While the initiative passed in 2012 with a slim majority — just 50.69 percent — the court’s decision offers the reminder that the voters’ will remains subject to the state constitution and that the initiative process cannot be used to amend it.

The high court didn’t specify what should happen with the existing charter schools and their school year, instead

sending the case back to the King County Superior Court for those decisions.

Charter schools may represent a laboratory for innovation, discovering methods that better educate students who aren’t always served well by traditional public schools.

But if public funds are going to be used, then there has to be more accountability to voters.

Supporters of the charter schools have called for immediate action. The Washington State Charter Schools Association, the Washington Policy Center and the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools asked Gov. Jay Inslee to call an immediate special session to find a solution that keeps the charter schools open.

We can appreciate that charter school supporters see some urgency to the issue.

Without public funding those charter schools will either

have to find another source of support or close, sending their students back to public schools. But this case was heard by the state Supreme Court in October. With a decision pending throughout this year, those running the charter schools must have know there was a risk in assuming the court would find in their favor. Waiting for the court’s ruling would have avoided a lot of the scrambling now faced by the charter schools and public schools, which may now have to find room for additional students.

And that urgency now expressed for 1,200 students yet seems lacking for the more than 1 million public school students in Washington state who are waiting for the Legislature to show an achievable plan for how it will meet its constitutional mandate to amply fund K-12 education.

daily. Many families are upset about this. The roadway is actually painful, and also makes for upset stomachs.

I don’t know if the school can afford to fix this. I was told their maintenance department is who it falls on.

However, all they do is very, very minor pothole dabbling.

There have been no improvements whatsoever!

We are hopeful there is some real help for this hazard affecting the public high school and its attendees. I appreciated your attention regarding this concern.

this street gets even heavierthan-usual traffic when the freeway north is backed up.

Several months ago an Everett police car would park in front of an apartment building in the 3400 block once or twice a week and would pull over cars as they raced by. Every 10 minutes or so he would ticket someone. I realize that the police have a lot on their plates most of the time, but this area is getting very dangerous, especially with people trying to cross the street with no crosswalks in sight.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■MPHS

School roadway needs real work I am concerned with the terrible roadway conditions around Marysville Pilchuck High School. I don’t know why it has been so neglected, but many of us parents feel it is almost a crime that it’s in such an awful state.

While I realize not much can be done about the use of perhaps too many speed bumps, the roadway desperately needs to be completely repaved.

The worst portion is after you pass where buses load, and drive along the west side, through the trees to reach the shop program area on the north side.

It literally has about 10 or more bad potholes and dips in the pavement. This, combined with three or four more speed bumps, makes for some very rough terrain.

Once you reach the shop area, you can head east to another large parking lot, which numerous cars do during the day.

When taking a student to and from this area, one must go over and back over 35 bumps and/or holes and rough terrain

GUEST COMMENTARY | K-12 standards and testing

Common Core sets the bar for education

By Michael J. Petrilli and Robert Pondiscio

F

ive long years ago, Washington and more than 40 other states adopted the Common Core standards in reading and math, setting dramatically higher expectations for students in our elementary and secondary schools. Now we’ve reached a critical milestone in this effort.

Washington parents just received for the first time their children’s scores on new tests aligned to the standards, and taxpayers got a look at results statewide. The news was sobering, and surely came as a shock for many. In five of the seven tested grade levels, for instance, fewer than half of the students are on track in math. The reading results weren’t much better. Let us explain why parents and taxpayers shouldn’t shoot the messenger.

First it’s important to remember why so many states started down this path in the first place. Under federal law, every state must test children every year in the third through eighth grades to ensure they are making progress. That’s a

good idea. Parents deserve to know if their kids are learning, and taxpayers are entitled to know if the money we spend on schools is being used wisely.

But it is left to states to define what it means to be “proficient” in math and reading. Unfortunately, most states, including Washington, set a very low bar. They “juked the stats.” As late as 2013, Washington was reporting that 70 percent of its fourthgraders were “proficient” in reading, whereas the federal government put the number at 40 percent—an enormous 30-point gap.

The result was a comforting illusion that most Washington children were on track to succeed in college, carve out satisfying careers and stand on their own two feet. To put it plainly, it was a lie. Imagine being told year after year that you’re doing just fine, only to find out when you apply for college or a job, that you’re simply not as prepared as you need to be.

Such experiences were not isolated cases. Every year, more than half of Washington’s community college students must

take remedial courses when they arrive on campus. Many of those students will leave without a degree, or any kind of credential. That’s a lousy way to start one’s life.

The most important step to fixing this problem is to stop lying to ourselves — and to parents — and ensure our children are ready for the next grade, and when they turn 18, for college or work. Several national studies, including analyses of the National Assessment of Educational Progress show that just 35 percent to 40 percent of high school graduates leave our education system at the “college prepared” level. Considering that 20 percent of our children don’t even make it to graduation day, that means that maybe a third of our kids nationally are getting to that college-ready mark. (Not coincidentally, about a third of young people today complete a four-year college degree.)

The Common Core should help to boost college readiness — and college completion — by significantly raising expectations, starting in kindergarten. But we shouldn’t be surprised that Washington

found that less than half of its students are “on track” for college. In fact, that’s what we should expect. Washington parents, in other words, are finally learning the truth.

This is a big shift, and a painful one, from the Lake Wobegon days, when, like in Garrison Keillor’s fictional town, all the children were above average. But parents and taxpayers should resist the siren song of those who want to use this moment of truth to attack the Common Core or the associated tests.

They may not be perfect, but they are finally giving parents, educators and taxpayers a much more honest assessment of how our children are doing — a standard that promises to end the lies and games with statistics.

Almost all kids aspire to go to college and prepare for a satisfying career. Now, at last, we know if they’re on track to do so.

Michael J. Petrilli and Robert Pondiscio are president and vice president, respectively, of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, edexcellence.net, and are fathers of school-aged children.

With a year to go, president hits his stride

A

ttention has been focused on who becomes our next president, but meanwhile the incumbent is on quite a roll.

Throughout his tour of Alaska, President Obama looked full of his old swagger. He took photos of Denali — the former Mount McKinley — through the windows of Air Force One and shared them via InstaEUGENE ROBINSON gram. He used melting glaciers as a backdrop to talk about climate change, posed with small children and large fish, and became the first sitting president to venture north of the Arctic Circle.

He seemed to smile throughout the trip, and why not? The nuclear agreement that Secretary of State John Kerry negotiated with Iran is now safe from congressional meddling. U.S. economic growth for the second quarter was a healthy 3.7 percent.

Unemployment has fallen to 5.1 percent, according to figures released Friday. Saudi King Salman — portrayed by Obama’s critics as peeved with the president — dropped by the White House on Friday for a chat. And later this month, Chinese President Xi Jinping is scheduled to arrive for what promises to be the most important state visit of the year.

Obama gives the impression of having rediscovered the joy of being president.

Maybe he is beginning to see some of his long-term policies finally bearing fruit — and his legacy being cemented.

Watching him now is a useful reminder that there is no such thing as the “twilight” of a presidency. Until the day his successor takes office, Obama will be the leading actor on the biggest and most important stage in the world.

It is useful to recall that George W. Bush practically had one foot out the door when the financial system threatened to collapse in 2008. It was Bush and his advisers who put together a massive $700 billion bank bailout and managed to sell it to Congress. Bush signed the rescue bill into law on Oct. 3 — barely a month before his successor would be chosen.

The banks were saved, but nothing could stop the economy from falling into its worst slump since the Great Depression.

I believe historians will conclude that one of Obama’s greatest accomplishments was bringing the economy back to real growth and something close to full employment — more slowly than Americans may have wished, perhaps, but steadily.

The Iran deal, in my view, is another remarkable achievement. Beyond the fact that it definitively keeps Tehran from building a nuclear weapon for at least 15 years, the agreement offers Iran’s leaders a path toward renewed membership in the community of nations. The mullahs may decide to remain defiant and isolated, but at least they now have a choice.

Obama’s White House has often been clumsy at inside-the-Beltway politics, but the handling of the Iran deal has been adroit. The drip-drip-drip of announcements from Democratic senators who favor the agreement has created a sense of momentum and inevitability. Now Obama knows that if Congress passes a measure rejecting the deal, he can veto it without fear of being overridden. The question, in fact, is whether a resolution of disapproval can even make it through the Senate. If Obama convinces 41 senators to filibuster the measure, it dies.

All is not sweetness and light, of course.

The Syrian civil war is a humanitarian disaster of enormous and tragic proportions, as evidenced by the heartbreaking refugee crisis in Europe. I don’t believe there is anything the United States could have done to prevent the war, but all nations bear a responsibility to help ease the suffering. The fact that some nations refuse to do their share does not absolve us from doing ours.

Domestically, the good economic numbers ignore the fact that middle-class incomes remain stagnant. Even without healthy wage growth, an economic recovery feels better than a slump — but only in relative terms.

All in all, though, it looks like a good time to be President Obama. The Affordable Care Act, as he had hoped, is by now so well-established that no Republican successor could easily eliminate it. Industries are already making plans to accommodate new restrictions on carbon emissions. Oh, and despite what you hear from all the Republican candidates, the border with Mexico is more secure than ever before.

Obama’s legacy will have a few blemishes. But he has good reason to smile.

Park: $188 million in settlement money is running out From Page A1

The state started decontaminating the area after tests in the 1990s showed problems with the soil. The cleanup was on and off until 2009, when the state received a $44 million environmental settlement from Grupo Mexico, the company that acquired former smelter owner Asarco. In all, the company paid $188 million to cover costs at several sites in Washington.

Now the settlement money is running out.

The state has enough money for at least another year of removing contaminated soil and sampling, Bommarito said. The areas most contaminated with lead and arsenic from the smelter already have been addressed.

The project was supposed to have started a year ago, but was delayed.

To get it done, the state has contracted a company

with experience doing environmental excavation, 3 Kings out of Battle Ground.

To date, the state has cleaned about 300 homes, but at least that many more might remain. Sampling will determine the exact number.

There is no immediate health hazard for people living in the area, officials say. Over the long term, however, ingesting dirt or dust containing arsenic can increase the risk of

To be safe, people should take extra care to wash their hands, especially after working or playing outside.

Other recommendations are using raised garden beds, wiping off pets’ paws when they come indoors and taking off shoes before

entering a house.

“They’re really easy things people can do,” Bommarito said.

Crews closed the southern portion of the park, which includes the arboretum, July 20.

Extreme winter weather could push back next year’s

reopening date.

Everett parks staff are working with state officials on plans to decontaminate two other nearby parks with elevated arsenic levels, city spokeswoman Meghan Pembroke said.

No closures are expected until next year at Wiggums Hollow Park or Viola Oursler Overlook.

it was visiting their parents in their home or staying after school to work with them, Rivera said. “He was very invested in the kids he worked with.”

He would shoot hoops with students at recess and signed up each year for a rotation at a dunk tank during school fundraisers, “so middle-schoolers obviously loved him,” Rivera said.

In 1996, he was selected as a “Washington State Distinguished Principal” for the Snohomish Region by the Elementary School Principals Association of Washington. He was one of 13 principals in the state chosen for the award that year.

Gelderman received his doctorate in education in 2004 from Seattle Pacific University. He retired from the Everett School District to work first as an adjunct faculty member at SPU beginning in 2004 and later as a certification officer helping graduate students who wanted to become school administrators.

Even while working at SPU, he was the person

Greg Gelderman was active in sports, including water-skiing.

Everett School District officials turned to when they had an unexpected need for a fill-in principal at North Middle School from April until June 2013.

“He went to his bosses and took a leave to help a middle school,” said Joyce Stewart, an Everett associate superintendent. “It shows you the extent he would go to help his former

colleagues and Everett Public School students.”

This commitment remained until the end of his life. On the evening of Aug. 28, when he heard that the district had reached a tentative agreement with its teachers on a new contract, Gelderman sent a text of congratulations saying, “It’s great to get school started for kids,”

Stewart said.

Gelderman and his wife, Beverly Gelderman, celebrated their 38th wedding anniversary in June. They have two children, daughters Suzanne Rivera, 35, of Denver, and Stacey Babcock, 32, of Walla Walla, and four grandchildren.

In 2006, Gelderman was treated for testicular

cancer. He was active in sports, from jogging to water-skiing. He took up bicycling after hip replacement surgery in 2007, Babcock said. In July, he completed the 206-mile Seattle-to-Portland bicycle race in a single day.

The next day, he and his wife rose early to travel to Walla Walla to be at the first Sunday service for Babcock and her husband, Matthew Babcock, as senior pastors at the New Joy Foursquare Church.

Rivera said that when her family moved into a new home in Colorado in May, her dad asked if he could join his wife at her home to help with chores while she was on a business trip.

When she returned, she found that not only had the moving boxes been unpacked but shelves had been built in the garage.

She remembers her father never missed an opportunity to tell his daughters how much they meant to him. “He never hesitated to say, ‘I love you,’” she said. “I would get letters in the mail saying, ‘Suzanne, thinking of you and wanted to let you know

Dreams of

Cadence Whittle MUKILTEO

W

hittle, 19, recently moved to Hollywood to pursue her acting dream at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles.

The Kamiak High School graduate started acting at age 12. She studied at Shoreline Community College and Freehold Theatre while working at Mukilteo Diamond Knot Brewery and performing slam poetry at Red Cup Café. She stars in Thornbrook, a Victorian-era web series mostly shot in Kitsap County that debuts online at the end of the month.

See more about Whittle at www. cadencewhittle.com; www.thornbrookseries.com and facebook. com/thornbrookwebseries.

Describe “Thornbrook”: “Thornbrook” is a Penny Dreadful, Victorian-era web series by Monoculus Films, which also has a dash of supernatural along with notes of Jane Austen. There will be six total episodes, each one revealing the mysteries that linger in the town of Thornbrook.

What’s the funniest or craziest thing anybody ever said to you?

OK, when I first arrived in L.A., I was walking down Melrose Avenue with my hair straight and sunglasses on, and I went into one of the thrift stores there. I’m looking through some clothes I needed for costuming at school, and I hear a gasp from behind me, and a woman yells, “LINDSAY LOHAN!?!?” I looked up in an excited, starstruck whirl, glanced around to see where Lindsay was, and then discovered a young woman clinging onto her coat hangers, staring at me. I don’t know who was more disappointed in me not being Lindsay Lohan, me or her.

What are you wearing?

I’ve currently got on some shorts that look like they’ve been through some serious battles, a dark green tank top and some bacon socks.

Because bacon’s good on everything, right?

If you could share the stage with anyone alive or in history who would it be?

Definitely Kevin Spacey. He’s what we call an “actor’s actor,” meaning that every actor fangirls over how amazing he is.

What is your dream role?

I’ve always wanted to play

someone absolutely insane. I’m fascinated by humankind, how we interact with one another, why we think the things we do, etc., so when I saw Carrie (the 1976 version with Sissy Spacek), and Rosemary’s Baby, I was in awe of them.

Biggest on-stage fear?

I hate flying bugs. They terrify me. I’ve always feared that I’ll be on a big-budget set, shooting an outside scene in like the middle of the Mojave Desert or something, and a giant moth or beetle or something will come and attack me while we’re filming. I know that if that ever does happen, my acting teachers always tell me to “stay in the moment,” so ... I guess I’ll just let that little guy stay along for the ride and get some screen time.

People would be shocked to know ...

I wanted to be in the medical or crime field prior to acting. Forensics has always been a fascinating thing to me. I remember one year for Christmas I got this detective kit thing from my parents so I could start finding “clues.”

One thing you (and others) wish you’d stop doing/saying.

I very strongly dislike the word “bae.” It’s this silly word that’s spread through social media, and it means “before anyone else,” and used as if it were “babe” or “baby.”

Well, me and my friends jokingly started saying it, and now sometimes it just inevitably spurts out of my mouth.

Best thing about growing up in Mukilteo?

The cemetery. Oh, I miss that cemetery. I’d go there and read a book, write, play guitar, or just watch everything on that bench with the beautiful view of the beach, water, ferries ... everything. You never really realize how fortunate you are until you move away from Washington.

Three movies/TV shows in your Netflix queue: So, I love Kevin Spacey, but politics is like another language to me ... yet, “House of Cards” is totally on my Netflix queue. I’ve watched the first two episodes and it’s beautiful! I’ve also got a film called “Snowpiercer” on there, which I heard was a great film. Then I’m also slowly but surely making my way through a TV series called “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” and it’s hilarious.

Guilty pleasure?

I have a lot of musical guilty pleasures. I love pop-punk. It’s so weird.

Like the ’90s punk: Blink-182, The Offspring, Screeching Weasel, the list goes on. I have no idea why I like it, it’s not like my parents listened to it or my brother did ... I just started listening to it and was like, “This is so angsty. I’m 16 and I’m so angsty all the time. It’s perfect.”

Forty bucks buys a small rooster. The popular 6-foot rooster is $325. A 12-to-15 footer is $1,400.

Sure, they’re adorable, in a cocky way. But where do you put these kooky birds?

You name it. Gardens. Foyers.

Those expressive faces are hard to resist, but shipping can cost more than the bird.

Their ankles are cable-tied to sandbags should they get any ideas of fleeing or flying and to prevent them from being rooster-napped.

Daughter’s dog allergy raises issues

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Hi Carolyn: When my daughter was first born, my husband and I decided that if we should perish, my brotherin-law and his wife would raise her.

They agreed to this.

However, over the last few years, we discovered that my daughter, now 5, has a severe dog allergy (read: asthma attack, hospital level), and her aunt and uncle have two dogs. The allergy is so bad that she cannot even visit their house. So now we have no real plan in regard to her care.

I feel we should ask them if they would give up their dogs if they ever needed to raise our daughter — but how do we ask that, in a way that allows them to answer honestly?

It seems it would be quite hard for someone to say, “I would choose my dogs over your daughter,” to our faces — but we have to know if we can rely on them if needed, or find another option for her care. They really are the very best option, sans dogs. How should we approach this?

— Delicate Question “The dog allergy has me worried about our guardianship plan.

Would you like us to choose someone else?” That allows them to say either, “Yes, that’s probably a good

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT idea” or “Yikes, no, if it came to that of course we’d find new homes for the dogs.”

Even more important than the phrasing, though, is your attitude: If you’re going to pose this question, then you have to be ready to hear either answer without losing your composure.

There is another option, though, one I would take if I were in your position: Trust the aunt and uncle to do the right thing should this very unlikely thing happen. I mean, if you really thought it was possible they would either risk your daughter’s life by expecting her to live with dogs, or prioritize the dogs and pack her off to be raised by someone else, then you didn’t pick the right guardians in the first place.

Re: guardianship: Or, another option: Decide that giving up their pets is too much

to ask of anyone and find a new guardian.

I probably would be one of the few who really would say, flatly, “You’re right, I’m not the right choice,” but sometimes the most loving thing you can do is not put someone you love in the position to make such a wrenching decision.

It’s probably clear that I’m in the pets-are-family camp, huh?

— Anonymous So am I, but, seriously?!

It’s a wrenching choice, yes, but we’re talking about the adult pain of potentially surrendering an animal versus the needs of a freshly orphaned child. Sparing the feelings of a pet-owning adult is not the “most loving thing you can do”!

That distinction belongs to choosing to take in a child who just lost both parents even though it means finding new homes for two beloved dogs.

I don’t believe anyone is obligated to do this, nor do I believe refusing to do this makes someone a bad person, but let’s not equate things that simply are not equal.

And I’m talking about actually carrying out such a choice; the letter is just about hypotheticals.

An adult can certainly handle that conversation. (c) 2015, Washington Post Writers Group

Mom’s surprise pregnancy is not pleasant one for her girls Dear Abby: I am 44 and my husband of 20 years is 48. On a recent second honeymoon trip to Sweden, I became pregnant.

We already have two beautiful, intelligent daughters, 17 and 14. One started university this fall while the other’s a high school sophomore.

My problem is not so much the high-risk pregnancy, but rather that both of my girls strongly oppose the idea of us keeping the baby. Not only were they not thrilled when I broke the news to them, but they also cried.

My younger daughter is now giving me the cold shoulder. She doesn’t like change and thinks having a sibling will disrupt our life. My older girl said she is glad she will be at the university so she won’t have to have anything to do with the baby.

I am deeply hurt by their reactions. I need help to talk to them. Please give me some advice. — Expecting In Canada Dear Expecting: Far more important than how your immature and selfcentered daughters feel about your pregnancy is how you and your husband feel about it. Teenagers don’t like to consider their parents as sexual beings, which may be part of the reason for their reaction.

Not knowing your girls, I’m not sure what they need to hear other than you love them and hope at some point they will become mature enough to accept the situation. But do not allow them to put you on the defensive. You don’t owe them an apology. As a matter of fact, they owe you and their father one.

my husband takes her food shopping and wherever else she has to go. She has made no effort to buy a new car. She’s content with calling him for every need.

She wasn’t injured and she isn’t disabled. If she doesn’t want to do something, her excuse is, “I’m an old lady. I can’t do it.”

She makes us feel like our family has to do everything for her — while she claims she’s “independent.” I think she needs a man so I can have my husband back. What do you think?

— Over It In Philadelphia Dear Over It: From the tone of your last remark it’s clear you and your motherin-law aren’t close and probably never were. Philadelphia has a very large transit system. Surely there is alternate transportation for her — buses, taxis, Uber and Lyft come to mind. If she was so traumatized by the accident that she’s afraid to get behind the wheel again, she may need a therapist to overcome it.

Whatever the reason, this won’t stop until you and your husband quit enabling her. Give her a list of what’s available and “suggest” she use it the next time she calls wanting a ride. If she needs groceries, offer to order them online for her yourself if she isn’t computer literate.

And your husband should also offer to help her find a new car.

Iron Maiden frontman talks about his cancer

Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson credits his grandfather with getting him through his recent battle with cancer.

Late last year, doctors discovered a small cancerous tumor on his tongue.

Dickinson, 57, waited until after his radiation treatment was complete to make a statement, and found the hardest part was people dumping their fears on him.

“They’re like, ‘Oh my God, don’t die.’ And I’m like, ‘I’m not making any plans to die. Leave me alone. I’m trying to get better,” Dickinson said.

Now the singer is cancer-free and the band is ready to embark on a sixcontinent world tour.

Associated Press: How did your grandfather inspire your courage?

Bruce Dickinson: I was brought up by him. I always remember a day

hurricane that killed an estimated 8,000 people.

In 1945, Bess Myerson of New York was crowned Miss America in Atlantic City, New Jersey, becoming the first Jewish contestant to win the title.

In 1954, the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO) was founded in Manila by the United States, France, Britain, New Zealand, Australia, the Philippines, Thailand and Pakistan.

In 1966, the science-fiction TV series “Star Trek” premiered on NBC. In 1974, President Gerald R. Ford granted a “full, free, and absolute pardon” to former President Richard Nixon covering his entire term in office.

In 1985, Pete Rose of the Cincinnati Reds tied Ty Cobb’s career record for hits, singling for hit number 4,191 during a game against the Cubs in Chicago.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Tuesday, Sept. 8, the 251st day of 2015. There are 114 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight: On Sept. 8, 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long, D-La., was shot and mortally wounded inside the Louisiana State Capitol; he died two days later. (The assailant was identified as Dr. Carl Weiss, who was gunned down by Long’s bodyguards.)

On this date: In 1565, a Spanish expedition established the first permanent European settlement in North America at present-day St. Augustine, Florida.

In 1761, Britain’s King George III married Princess Charlotte of MecklenburgStrelitz a few hours after meeting her for the first time.

In 1892, an early version of “The Pledge of Allegiance,” written by Francis Bellamy, appeared in “The Youth’s Companion.”

In 1900, Galveston, Texas, was struck by a

when I got beaten up at school. I was a little guy, only about this big (holds his hand).

Bruce He was a Dickinson miner, so he said, “This kid beat you up,” and I said “Yeah.” So he says, “All right, make a fist. Now hit my hand.” So I did the Rocky thing with it. “Now go out there and sort him out.” Kind of a blue-collar sort of thing to do so I did.

Then I was escorted home by teacher. I remember he opened the door and ....there in his vest standing and pants, he said, “I’ll take care of it.” He asked me what happened and told me the ground rules.

He said, “You never hit a woman. You never hit somebody smaller than you, and you only hit them

if they really deserve it. But you never back down and you never give up.”

AP: You’re the frontman of the biggest metal band and also fly the band’s private plane, a 747. Take me though that?

Dickinson: I was working as an airline pilot. I had a regular job for 10 years, and at the same time, I was in Iron Maiden. We used to tour for like two or three months a year, and I would get unpaid leave to tour. ... How crazy is that? ... I went to my manager and I said, “Look, I’ve got this crazy idea. How’d you fancy going out in a 747 on the next tour?” He went, “Oooh ... that would be major.” ... I’m training for the 747 license now at a simulator in Cardiff.

AP: Not many bands’ release double albums these days.

Dickinson: It’s something that most people

don’t do now. It’s something we have never done.

But we didn’t do it to prove a point. We did it because we ran out of space on one CD. We got to six songs and filled it up. I said, “Guys, either we stop now, or this is going to be two albums.”

AP: What do you think of the tribute bands?

Dickinson: I think it’s a great. There’s a female tribute band, “The Iron Maidens” and they all dress up like us. We saw them in Mexico, sneaked in the back. Me and Steve were there and I went, “Go on, do you fancy yourself?” (laughs) That’s too weird...

The crucial thing for us is that we don’t become our own tribute band. There’s that subtle distinction. The new music is what makes us not our own karaoke band.

Sonic Youth’s Gordon leaves town: A road diary It was time to go.

“The memories I have, and the house I still own are both filled with stuff adorning a life I no longer live, feelings that I no longer have,” Kim Gordon wrote in her powerful and poetic memoir, “Girl in a Band,” of Northampton, Massachusetts, where she and her Sonic Youth bandmate-slash-husband Thurston Moore moved locally owned and operated

in 1999. The marriage collapsed, (in her words) “a cliche of middle-aged relationship failure,” the band died with it and daughter Coco headed off to college.

So on a Sunday morning this summer, Gordon hopped into her Subaru and headed west.

Over six days, Gordon and a friend, Emma Reeves, traversed the country for their final destination: L.A. And she was kind enough to provide a

running commentary, via her iPhone, in pictures and words.

Don’t pretend this is just any move. As indie rock’s uber-cool first family, Gordon and Moore collaborated with local musicians, held secret gigs and just lived.

“The end of an era,” said Byron Coley, the writer, music historian and owner Feeding Tube Records, near Northampton. Playfully called Portland East,

the region has been home for a slew of musicians over the years, everyone from the Pixies’ Charles (Black Francis) Thompson, Dinosaur Jr.’s J. Mascis to alterna-mopester Ray LaMontagne and NRBQ’s Terry Adams.

“I’m really going to miss having her around,” Coley said, “but I think it’s going to be good for her to be gone.”

College football No. 1 Ohio State beats Virginia Tech 41-24, C3

TUESDAY, 09.08.2015

Jackson happy to be a Hawk Veteran running back Fred Jackson, who was released by the Buffalo Bills before signing with the Seahawks, is looking to go to the playoffs for the first time in his career.

By Nick Patterson Herald writer

double play ball to short, but the Tri-City second baseman’s throw to first was also wide which allowed Simpson to score for the 1-0 lead.

The Dust Devils drew even with some clutch two-out hitting in the seventh. Carlos Belen led off with a single, stole second, went to third on a passed ball and scored when Kodie Tidwell’s line drive to left eluded the leaping Jackson at short.

Everett stranded six runners through the first 10 innings, including two in the eighth. The AquaSox also were unable to capitalize on leadoff doubles

RENTON — Leave it to Richard Sherman to get to the crux of a situation.

Monday was Fred Jackson’s first day as a member of the Seattle Seahawks, as the former Buffalo Bills running back was officially signed by Seattle on Monday morning. And it was Sherman, Seattle’s All-Pro cornerback and resident trash Seattle talker, who head coach noted JackPete Carroll said son’s lack the Seahawks of playoff aren’t interexperience.

“Richard ested in talking to teams about trad- Sherman joked ing Kam Chancel- with me, he was like, ‘You lor. Page C3 haven’t played in the playoffs?’” Jackson said Monday following practice at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center, as he addressed the local media for the first time. “I was like, ‘We haven’t all been that fortunate.’”

Changing that playoff bagel is the primary reason why Jackson is in Seattle.

Jackson, an eight-year veteran, spent all eight of those seasons in Buffalo. Not once in those eight campaigns did the Bills advance to the playoffs, and rarely were they even close. Buffalo’s record in those eight seasons was 51-77, and the Bills finished in the basement of the AFC East in six of those.

When Jackson was unexpectedly released by Buffalo last Monday, his first choice was to seek out the team that appeared in each of the past two Super Bowls.

“It was the No. 1 (motivating factor for signing with Seattle),” said Jackson, who will serve as the Seahawks’ No. 2 running back behind Marshawn Lynch. “You want to go somewhere where they know how to win and have had some success. That’s the No. 1 reason I’m here in Seattle. They know how to do it. They’ve been to two straight Super Bowls and it’s something I want to be a part of.”

Jackson, 34, was a fan favorite

Everett and Tri-City were tied 1-1 in the 13th inning when The Herald went to press Monday night

By Jesse Geleynse Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Everett AquaSox and Tri-City Dust Devils were tied 1-1 in the 13th inning of the first game of their best-of-three Northwest League North Division playoff series Monday before 1,054 fans when The Herald went to press.

The series shifts to Pasco tonight, where the second half champion AquaSox will take on the first half champion Dust Devils at 7:15 p.m. The series winner will play either Hillsboro or Salem-Keizer of the South Division in the league championship series later this week.

Salem-Keizer defeated Hillsboro 4-2 in the first game of that series Monday.

Playing in its first playoff game since 2013, Everett (42-34 regular season, 20-18 second half) struck first against Tri-City (4234, 20-18).

The AquaSox broke through in the bottom of the fifth despite a baseball not leaving the infield.

Corey Simpson worked a oneout walk, and Jordan Cowan followed with an infield single that the Tri-City shortstop threw past the first baseman. Simpson and Cowan wound up on second and third, respectively.

Drew Jackson then hit what appeared to be a tailor-made

40 was the magic number for Huskies’ King Tyler King, a 2011 graduate of Coupeville High School who is a member of the University of Washington cross country team, begins his senior season after earning All-America honors as a junior.

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON

Tyler King was one of two Washington cross country runners to earn AllAmerica honor in 2014.

SEATTLE — Finishing 40th in a cross country race might not seem like a great accomplishment. But for Tyler King, a 2011 graduate of Coupeville High School, 40 was the magic number at last November’s NCAA Division 1 Championships in Terre Haute, Ind. King, then a junior, was competing in his first nationals for the University of Washington. He was about 45th midway through the 10,000-meter race, and UW coaches in various places around the course were urging him to move up and get into

the top 40, the threshold for AllAmerica recognition.

As the finish line came into view, King knew he was close.

With about 150 yards to go he was chasing one last runner, and with a strong surge he managed to slip by and then hold on, beating the other runner by about a second.

A nervous wait followed.

But 10 minutes later it was announced that King had indeed finished 40th, becoming one of two UW All-Americans in 2014.

“It was kind of surreal,” said King, recalling the emotions of that day. “You work hard for eight or 10 years toward some end and you’re not quite sure

Huskies, C3

what that end is going to be. ...

But when you put your whole self into something — your heart, your soul and everything — good things happen.”

UW coach Greg Metcalf broke the news, “and to tell him he was top 40 and to see his reaction, that was a great moment for a young man, a great moment for a coach and a great moment for a program.”

Given the many hundreds of collegiate cross country runners every year, “being one of the top 40 is a huge deal,” Metcalf added.

“Yes, it’s signified by a piece of paper, but it’s a tremendous honor and testament to everything that goes into being a great

collegiate distance runner. ... A lot of guys are capable of (being an All-American), but very few actually manage it.”

King started running in middle school, taking after older sister Brianne and older brother Kyle, who had also been distance runners. In high school Tyler King went to state four times in both cross country and track (because Coupeville did not have a cross country team, he ran for nearby Oak Harbor his first three years), and he won Class 1A state track championships as a junior in the 1,600 and 3,200, and in cross country as a senior.

King took college recruiting visits to Washington, Portland,

The Rangers’ Rougned Odor beats Mariners catcher John Hicks to home plate to score a run on a wild pitch during the seventh inning of Monday’s game.

M’s win streak ends Texas wins 3-0 to snap Seattle’s run of 5 wins in a row

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — No Labor Day six-pack for the Seattle Mariners. Their winning streak ended at five games Monday in a 3-0 loss to the Texas Rangers at Safeco Field.

The loss also put a crimp in the Mariners’ budding hopes of climbing back into the postseason hunt. They now trail the Rangers, who hold the American League’s final wild-card spot, by seven games with 24 to play.

So not a good day.

Some specifics: The Mariners started the game with a pair of base-running mistakes.

“We ran ourselves out of the first inning,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “It’s something that’s plagued us. It’s something we’ve talked about and worked on. For some reason ... it’s very frustrating.”

The Mariners also saw their fans interfere with an opportunity for first baseman Logan Morrison to make a catch along the wall in foul territory during Texas’ two-run sixth inning.

And they watched reliever Rob Rasmussen permit an inherited runner to score from second base by throwing two wild pitches with two outs in the seventh inning.

Beyond that, the Mariners wasted a strong outing from lefty Roenis Elias (4-8) because they mustered little against Yovani Gallardo (12-9) and the Texas bullpen. Shawn Tolleson pitched the ninth for his 30th save.

The game was scoreless into the sixth inning.

That ended after Elias issued a one-out walk to Delino DeShields, after being ahead 0-2 in the count, by missing on a close full-count curve.

“There was a pitch in there (I thought was a strike) that was called a ball,” Elias said. “The

in both the second and third innings. Everett was 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position during the same span.

Tri-City starter Brett Kennedy had a part in that. Kennedy fanned seven Everett hitters in his four-inning stint, including three straight in the second to

walk just happened after that.”

It then slipped away in a hurry. DeShields went to second when Shin-Soo Choo grounded a single up the middle.

When Elias nicked Prince Fielder with a 2-2 pitch, the Rangers had the bases loaded with one out for Adrian Beltre, who lined a full-count fastball into right field for a two-run single.

“In that situation,” Elias said, “he tends to swing on 3-2. So I tried to throw the ball a little bit outside and up and away. But he put a good swing on it and got the hit.”

It got worse.

Multiple fans with gloves along the right-field line interfered with an attempted by Morrison to make a catch along the wall on Mike Napoli’s pop.

The ball fell for no play.

Napoli cashed the reprieve by serving a soft liner into right that Shawn O’Malley appeared to lose in the sun. The ball fell for a single that loaded that bases.

Mayckol Guaipe replaced Elias and ended the inning — thanks to a sparkling play by shortstop Ketel Marte that started a double play. Want a Mariners’ highlight from Monday? That was it.

“When (Elvis Andrus) made contact,” Marte said, “I never saw the ball. I saw the ball at the last second.”

Texas stretched its lead to 3-0 in the seventh after Rougned Odor led off with a single against Guaipe and went to second on Bobby Wilson’s sacrifice.

When Texas inserted Will Venable as a pinch hitter, the Mariners countered by bringing in Rasmussen. That worked fine initially; Rasmussen struck out Venable.

But Rasmussen threw two wild pitches in the course of a walk to DeShields, which permitted Odor to score. Another wild pitch allowed DeShields to

reach second.

“A couple of them got away,” Rasmussen said. “I was maybe trying to do too much. Trying to be too fine, especially after getting to 0-2 on DeShields. I threw two pretty good first pitches.”

DeShields then tried to steal third, was thrown out and suffered a sprained left knee on the slide and left the game.

Now ... about the Mariners’ first inning: The first three batters reached safely against Gallardo, but they failed to turn the opportunity into runs.

Marte led off with a single but was thrown out stealing. Kyle Seager swung through a pitch, but it was a straight steal that failed.

“They gave me the green light,” Marte said, “and I thought I had a good jump. I went and nothing. Out.” Seager then walked and went to second on Mark Trumbo’s single. Robinson Cano took a third strike and, with Seth Smith batting, Seager got picked off second and was tagged out when he broke for third.

“I’m trying to get an aggressive secondary (lead) to score on a hit,” Seager said. “I got a little too much (of a lead). My momentum was going the wrong way, and he picked me off.”

So: four batters, two hits, one walk, inning over.

The Mariners didn’t threaten again until the fifth inning, when Brad Miller lined a one-out triple past a diving DeShields in center.

Texas shortened its infield and got exactly what it needed when John Hicks hit a roomservice grounder to short.

The Rangers trapped Miller between third and home, but he stayed alive long enough for Hicks to reach second.

O’Malley walked, but Marte took a borderline strike on a 2-2 fastball from Gallardo. The game remained scoreless. Until the Texas sixth.

strand Alex Jackson, who led off with a double.

Jordan Cowan led off Everett’s third with a double the opposite way down the left field line. He stole third, but was doubled off on Erick Mejia’s soft liner to short to end the inning.

Everett starter Andrew Moore allowed a one-out walk followed by a hit in the second, but struck out one hitter and induced a foul popup to end

the inning. He stranded two more in the third with a tapper back to the mound and a strikeout.

Source: Injured Jason Pierre-Paul meets with Giants Associated Press EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Two months after injuring his right hand in a July 4 fireworks accident, two-time Pro Bowl defensive end Jason PierrePaul has reported and met with the New York Giants.

A person with knowledge of the meeting told The Associated Press on Monday about the meeting. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the team has not confirmed Pierre-Paul’s arrival.

Eugene Parker, Pierre-Paul’s agent, did not return an email

seeking comment on the meeting.

Coach Tom Coughlin refused to say much about Pierre-Paul after practice because he had no knowledge that the player had arrived at the team’s headquarters. Teammates were expecting him.

Despite missing all of training camp, Coughlin would not rule out Pierre-Paul for the season opener in Dallas on Sunday night — provided the doctors clear him to play and he is fit.

Pierre-Paul has not practiced in the new defensive system, and team doctors will

be getting their first look at his hand. Because he had not signed his contract after the team tagged him as a franchise player, he refused to let the Giants examine his hand.

Team doctors are sure to be cautious; Pierre-Paul comes with a $14.8 million salary this season. It’s a price tag that might change if the player and the team work on a new contract.

The Giants can put PierrePaul on the non-football injury list if they don’t think he is ready. He would not have to be paid until he passes their physical.

Bird’s homer lifts Yanks over Orioles Associated Press NEW YORK — Greg Bird watched Baltimore manager Buck Showalter take the ball from Jorge Rondon and signal to the bullpen for the left-hander.

While Brian Matusz trotted in with two on, no outs and the score 5-all, Bird darted into the video room behind the Yankees dugout and asked for video coordinator Anthony Flynn and baseball operations assistant Brett Weber to show him a fastball and slider from the reliever.

Bird wanted to see “just kind of I guess what it’s sort of going to look like,” he explained. “Scouting reports don’t necessarily do it justice. I’m big on seeing and feeling what it’s like in the box.”

Less than 21⁄2 minutes later, Bird was in the batter’s box. Three pitches later, he was the Yankees’ Big Bird, hitting a three-run homer that bounced off the back of New York’s bullpen in right-center.

Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller held on for an 8-6 Labor Day win Monday that pulled the Yankees within a half-game of AL East-leading Toronto, which lost for just the eighth time in 36 games, 11-4 at Boston.

“It’s nice to see them lose games,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said.

Alex Rodriguez and John Ryan Murphy also homered for the Yankees (77-59), who overcame a 4-1 deficit and improved to 18 games over .500 for the first time since 2012. With his 29th homer this season, A-Rod got his 3,054th career hit and passed Rod Carew for sole possession of 22nd place.

A 22-year-old who made his big league debut on Aug. 13, Bird is hitting .263 with five homers and 17 RBI.

No. 1 Buckeyes top Hokies

By Marla Ridenour Akron Beacon Journ

BLACKSBURG, Va. — The drama that dragged on for months was all about who should be Ohio State’s starting quarterback.

But it was the man who held that job before J.T. Barrett or Cardale Jones who dazzled as No. 1 OSU opened defense of its national championship with a 42-24 victory over Virginia Tech in a nationally televised game Monday night before a sellout crowd of 65,632 at Lane Stadium.

The Hokies handed the Buckeyes their lone loss in 2014.

Braxton Miller, who felt his shoulder wasn’t strong enough after two surgeries to battle Jones and Barrett in the most hyped competition in college football, put on a performance in his first game at wide receiver/H-back.

Miller nearly finished the Hokies by himself in the second half.

On OSU’s first possession, he caught a 54-yard TD pass from starter Jones. That play put Ohio State back on top 21-17 less than two minutes into the third quarter.

Then with 2:05 left in the same period, Miller drew oohs and aahs with a stunning spin move on a 53-yard touchdown run that gave the Buckeyes a 28-17 lead.

Even Miller’s first catch was above average, as he dove for a low pass from Jones for a 24-yard gain.

With Miller’s passing ability limited, his appearance in the Wildcat formation seemed predictable, at least until his 360-degree whirl into YouTube infamy.

Virginia Tech’s attack suffered a major blow when senior quarterback Michael Brewer was knocked out of the game with 11:36 left in third quarter.

On the Hokies’ first possession of the second half, the OSU defense made Brewer pay for a comment shown by an ESPN camera in the locker room at halftime.

“It’s going to take a helluva lot more than that to get me out,” Brewer said, presumably referring to the two sacks OSU notched in the first half.

On a third-and-4, Brewer was hit head on by 290-pound OSU defensive tackle Adolphus Washington as he let go an incomplete pass intended for tight end Ryan Malleck. Brewer was taken to the locker room and emerged minutes later with his arm in a sling. Brewer told ESPN sideline reporter Heather Cox that he suffered a broken left collarbone that will require surgery.

Ohio State coach Urban Meyer surprised some by electing to start Jones over Barrett. Barrett led the Buckeyes to an 11-1 record and set or tied 17 school

RENTON — Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll confirmed Monday that the team has received calls from other teams regarding the availability of Pro Bowl safety Kam Chancellor.

He was also clear about what Seattle’s reaction has been to those inquiries: No thank you.

Chancellor’s holdout reached day 39 Monday with no end in sight. However, despite rumors swirling about the possibility of a trade, Carroll said that’s not something the Seahawks are considering at this point.

“There have been a couple phone calls from other teams, people kind of wondering what’s going on,” Carroll acknowledged following Monday’s practice at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center.

“We’re really not interested in talking to

in Buffalo, where he embodied the Little Engine That Could. The 6-foot-1, 215 pounder played collegiately at tiny NCAA Division III Coe College, then spent three years kicking around the arena leagues and Europe. He received a tryout from the Bills in 2006 because then-Buffalo general manager Marv Levy was a fellow Coe graduate. Jackson caught on with the Bills and from 2007-14 he amassed 5,646 yards on 1,279 carries, adding 322 receptions for 2,640 yards.

When Jackson was unexpectedly cut by the Bills last Monday in a salary-cap move — Jackson was due to make $2.35 million — the Seahawks pounced. Seattle flew Jackson in the next day for a visit and a physical, then waited until after the final preseason game before signing him.

The Seahawks even cleared out two other running backs, placing Robert Turbin on injured reserve and shipping Christine Michael to Dallas, in order to make room for Jackson.

Seattle coach Pete Carroll said that although Jackson’s first practice with the team was Monday, he will get ample

Run game is No. 1 concern for Huskies The News Tribune

records before breaking his ankle against Michigan. Under Jones, OSU went 3-0, beating Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship game, No. 1 Alabama and No. 2 Oregon in the College Football Playoff.

But Meyer also stuck to his promise from last week that both would play this season, inserting Barrett with 10:43 remaining.

If part of Meyer’s rationale in going with Jones against the Hokies was Jones’ success in big games, he kept alive his magic from January. The Buckeyes jumped out to a 14-0 lead with 6:39 remaining.

The Buckeyes marched 64 yards on their first series and Jones hit Curtis Samuel for a 24-yard scoring pass.

The next time the Buckeyes touched the ball, running back Ezekiel Elliott repeated his dazzling run against Alabama, dashing 80 yards for a touchdown. The big block was by right guard Pat Elflein 10 yards downfield as Sullivan Award winner Elliott had to elude only one defender,

then angled left toward the end zone.

In the first quarter, Jones completed 6-of-9 passes for 95 yards and ran five times for 29 yards.

But the Hokies, who came in with an .820 winning percentage at home dating back to 1995, refused to be buried by the onslaught.

Virginia Tech drove 74 yards in six plays, with Brewer tossing a 51-yard TD pass to fullback Sam Rogers, who juked cornerback Eli Apple near the 15-yard line. On its next possession, Virginia Tech’s Joey Slye connected on a 46-yard field goal to cut the gap to 14-10 with 7:05 left in the half.

Ohio State’s ongoing search for a punt returner for the past two years continued to be an issue. Elliott fumbled one away with 1:30 remaining in the second quarter and Anthony Shegog recovered at the OSU 38. The Hokies scored in four plays, with Brewer finding Malleck for a 1-yard scoring pass that gave them a 17-14 halftime lead.

them about that, so we don’t.”

Though Carroll dismissed trade possibilities, he said there were no new developments in Chancellor’s holdout.

Captains picked Seattle’s players voted Monday on their captains for the 2015 season. The captains are quarterback Russell Wilson on offense, linebacker Bobby Wagner on defense and punter Jon Ryan on special teams.

“Three really good guys who really stand for everything we’re all about,” Carroll said.

“They’re tough competitors and good leaders in every way, so we’re lucky to have those guys chosen.”

Wilson and Ryan are repeat captains from last season. Wagner takes over on defense for Chancellor.

season opener at St. Louis. He also said backup quarterback Tavaris Jackson (ankle), who is throwing in practice, should be available Sunday.

The Seahawks are still waiting to find out whether tight end Cooper Helfet (ankle) will be able to go Sunday. Linebacker Mike Morgan (hamstring) is unlikely to play against the Rams.

Practice squad additions Seattle filled out its 10-man practice squad Monday with the signing of three players who were released by other teams. Cornerback Justin Coleman, a rookie free agent from Tennessee, was released by New England; cornerback Kevin Short, a rookie free agent from Fort Scott CC, was released by Kansas City; and defensive end Robert Thomas, a rookie free agent from Arkansas, was released by Washington. They join the seven players signed Sunday who were in training camp with the Seahawks.

Carroll confirmed Monday that starting free safety Earl Thomas, who didn’t play during the preseason as he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery, will be ready for Sunday’s

playing time in Sunday’s season opener at St. Louis.

“He’ll play a lot,” Carroll said. “He ran the whole offense today. I don’t know how he got it all done, but he got it down today.

I would think he’ll be ready to go.

“This team is made up of a bunch of guys who came to prove something,” Carroll added. “He comes from Coe College, he’s been battling his whole life to prove it.

I think he’s a guy who really fits in with the makeup of this team.”

During his years with the Bills Jackson became close friends with Lynch, as the two were teammates from 2007-10. Jackson’s relationship with Lynch played a big part in facilitating Jackson’s signing with Seattle.

“As soon as I got released I got on the phone with (Lynch),” Jackson said. “I said, ‘I just got released, I wouldn’t mind if you put a bug in the coaches or GM’s ear and let them know I’d like to come out there and play. He did that for me, and as soon as I hit the waiver wire I got that phone call (from the Seahawks). I think he has a lot to do with me being here.”

Carroll was coy about how Jackson would be used in the offense, but Jackson’s profile suggests he’s a perfect fit as a third-down back. Last season he caught 66 passes for 501 yards — the 66

receptions would have tied Doug Baldwin for Seattle’s team lead last season — and has the reputation as one of the best passblocking running backs in the NFL. “I’ve always prided myself on being one of the better pass-protecting backs in the league,” Jackson said. “I think you have to be able to do that and it’s something I take pride in. Catching passes out of the backfield is also something I take pride in. I think that’s something I can definitely bring to the table.”

That willingness to do the little things is one of the reasons why Jackson thinks he’s still contributing, despite being the oldest running back in the league and being of an age when most running backs are washed up.

“There are a lot of running backs in the league who are gifted runners,” Jackson said. “Not all of them want to pass protect or run routes out of the backfield. That’s something I took to heart and wanted to get done, and it’s allowed me to have a long career now.”

A career that’s now moved to Seattle, where he hopes he’ll finally discover what the playoffs are all about.

SEATTLE — How bad was the Washington Huskies’ offense against Boise State on Friday night?

So bad that their longest rush from scrimmage — a 12-yard scramble for a first down by quarterback Jake Browning — actually suggested failure from both the running and passing games: If Browning had adequate time to throw, or an open receiver, he wouldn’t have had to scramble. And if the Huskies had run the ball in any kind of productive way, that 12-yard gain wouldn’t have been the highlight.

But it was, and that’s the primary reason the Huskies lost 16-13 in their season opener. They finished with 29 yards rushing on 22 carries — and just 179 yards of total offense — which marked just the 11th time since 1996 that the Huskies finished a game with fewer than 30 yards on the ground.

With Big Sky conference member Sacramento State visiting Husky Stadium on Saturday — a considerably lesser foe, to be sure — priority No. 1 for this young Huskies team will be developing a rushing attack that can actually keep the offense on the field. And take some pressure of Browning, a true freshman who was mostly limited in his first career start to short passes, scramble attempts and throwing the ball away.

“It was certainly very concerning — probably the No. 1 thing on offense,” UW coach Chris Petersen said of the running game at his Monday press conference. “And it was a little thing here and a little thing there that made it kind of look bad. “... It’s nothing we didn’t anticipate and see, it just happened a lot faster. So there’s a lot of those little things. We’re going to have to get our run game better for us to progress, without question.”

The Huskies relied heavily upon their run game last season, when sixty percent of their total plays were runs (607 carries for 2,640 yards) and they struggled to pass the ball downfield consistently under the direction of quarterback Cyler Miles.

Petersen described the Huskies’ offense in the first half of Friday’s game as “very, very poor,” and again emphasized the need to stretch the defense by taking more shots downfield. Browning completed 20-of-35 passes for 150 yards, a paltry average of just 4.3 yards per attempt. By comparison, Miles, who was often criticized for his inability to complete longer throws, finished last season with a passper-attempt average of 7.3.

“We need to see more of that, without question,” Petersen said of the vertical passing game. “I think we’ve got to take some chances and be able to do that.

Sometimes it’s coverage-predicated. Boise is a shot team as well, and they got one off on us that they should have hit, and that has to do with coverage — taking them out of their shots as well.

“But we’ve got to design things where we’ve got chances to take some shots. And we will.”

Pettis honored Sophomore receiver Dante Pettis, the player who scored UW’s only touchdown on Friday, was voted the Pac-12’s special teams Player of the Week by media.

With UW trailing 16-3 late in the third quarter, Pettis returned a punt 76 yards for a touchdown to put the Huskies in the end zone for the first (and only) time.

It was the second punt-return touchdown of Pettis’ career, the first coming Nov. 1 last season at Colorado.

“He’s a guy that I’ve had extremely high expectations for, really, since he’s been here,” Petersen said. “One, because we made him the punt returner. Two, because he played as a true freshman, and he’s very smart and he’s really talented athletically.”

Pettis is the first UW player to return two punts for touchdowns in a career since Charles Frederick, whose touchdown against Oregon State in 2003 stood for 11 years as the Huskies’ most recent punt-return score.

Notes Browning is now listed by himself as the team’s starting quarterback, after being listed alongside Jeff Lindquist and K.J. Carta-Samuels prior to the Boise State game. ... A minor ankle injury kept Lindquist from playing quarterback on Friday — he and Carta-Samuels each have brief packages of plays designed for them — but Petersen said Lindquist is “a lot better than he was last week, so we’ll just see.” ... Sixth-year tailback Deontae Cooper traveled to Boise but didn’t suit up due to what Petersen described as an injury that’s “nothing serious at all.” But he remains week-to-week. “Sometimes these guys just take a minute,” Petersen said. “I was surprised he was as set back as he was for this game. I thought he would be more ready to go. So we’ll just see.” The injury is not kneerelated. ... Asked about Browning’s “pissed off” demeanor immediately following the Boise State game, Petersen said he liked it. “I think our guys should be pissed off. I really do.

That’s what you want. You don’t want guys feeling sorry for themselves and moping around.

That’s what most people do. I think the true competitors are really irritated about it and trying to figure out how to fix it. Most people think they’re competitors and they’re not. They’re mopers. That (intensity) is in his nature and that’s what the rest of our guys need to continue to develop.”

King From Page C1

Boise State and Colorado, and he chose the Huskies largely because of his relationships with Metcalf and assistant coach Jason Drake.

“I just really hit it off with them,” King explained. “With the energy they brought and the connection we had, I just felt like I was going to be successful. In cross country, one of the most important things is the connection you have with your coach, and I felt like I’d have that here.”

Under the guidance of Metcalf and Drake, and with a lot of hard work, King began showing significant improvement.

By his third year in cross country (he was a sophomore in eligibility, having redshirted as a freshman) he finished 22nd at the Pacific-12 Conference championships.

“That was exciting,” he said. “At that moment it was like, ‘OK, what I’m doing is working.’”

Still, there were sometimes difficult days, too.

Midway through last season he was lagging enough that Metcalf called him in for a heartto-heart chat.

“I knew what Tyler was capable of doing ... and he wasn’t doing the things I believed he could,” Metcalf said. “So I said, ‘You can be better. You can train harder. You can take better care of yourself and take better care of your world.’ ... He’d got off course a little bit, so we sat down and I challenged him.”

That conversation “helped me become more purposeful in everything I did,” King said. “I took care of my schooling so that when it came to training I wasn’t stressed out about school. And I made sure I got enough sleep. Everything in my life became a lot more purposeful that it’d been.”

The new approach was soon paying off. King finished 12th at the Pac-12

Volleyball n The City of Edmonds is accepting registration for its Women’s 4’s Volleyball Leagues on Thursday nights at Edmonds Community College. Play starts Sept. 17.

championships and went on to an All-America finish at nationals.

As he heads into the new season, King has ambitious goals for himself and his team. Though “I’d obviously love to be an All-American again, I’m at my best when I’m invested in something that’s bigger than myself,” he said. “And I’m better when I’m investing in our team.”

If the Huskies qualify for nationals again, “and if I could be our fifth guy and finish in 41st place, I’d be more happy about that than being our second guy and finishing in 40th place. I’d rather be holding a big (team) trophy than a little (individual) medal,” he said.

Wanting the best for his last collegiate cross country season, King has boosted his training from 80-85 miles a week a year ago to 85-90 miles a week this year. He runs seven days a week, sometimes twice a day, and the regimen leaves little times for anything else beyond school and sleep.

And, yes, those workouts take a physical toll. “I joke that I limp 22 hours a day, and the two hours when I’m not limping are the two hours when I’m running,” he said.

“Walking down the stairs the morning after a hard workout is the worst.

“Honestly, if I didn’t love it, it’d be really hard.

It’s hard to put in the amount of work it takes to be successful if you’re not enjoying the training itself, and I think a lot of college kids struggle with that. Part of (being successful) is just enjoying the process.”

Indeed, as King has proven, and as Metcalf likewise understands and appreciates, every great accomplishment begins with a great attitude.

“Tyler’s a hard-working, blue-collar kid,” Metcalf said. “He’s had some ups and downs ... but I love how hard he’s worked. He’s a great competitor and a great young man, and I love everything about him.”

Anderson knocks out Murray Serena knows her next U.S. Open glance foe, Venus, is her toughest

By Howard Fendrich Associated Press

By Jeff Williams Newsday

Now comes the match that Serena Williams didn’t want to play.

As she plows forward toward a fourth consecutive U.S. Open title and a calendar year Grand Slam, Williams runs into the player whom she considers to be the best in the tournament in the quarterfinals Tuesday night, the one player who might have the best shot at beating the No. 1 player in the world.

That would be her sister, Venus.

“For me, I’m playing the best player in the tournament, and that’s never easy,” Serena said. “She’s beaten me so many times.

I’ve taken a lot of losses off her, more than anybody.

She knows how to win, knows how to beat me, and knows my weaknesses better than anyone.”

This will be the 27th time the sisters have played each other. That figure is extraordinary not only because they are the most successful sister-sister act in the history of sport, but they are also the oldest players in the women’s draw.

Venus is 35, Serena 33 and will be 34 this month. Their rivalry in championship tennis goes back to the 1998 Australian Open, a match won by Venus. Their all-time head-to-head record is 15-11 in favor of Serena, and Serena holds a 6-2 advantage in Grand Slam finals.

Serena Williams has won 21 major singles titles and if she wins the Open, she will tie Steffi Graf’s total of 22 and be two behind the record of 24 set by Margaret Court. Venus has seven

Grand Slam titles, and beat her sister in the 2001 Open final, the first Saturday night final at the Open.

But all these numbers mean little to both of them as they prepare to face each other. Now, it’s only about holding serve or breaking it, hitting winners or making errors, toughing it out to the bitter end, something that both sisters are supremely accomplished at.

Asked to match up each other, Serena responded concisely: “She’s fast, I’m fast. She hits hard, I hit hard. She serves big, I serve big.”

In the galaxy of women’s tennis, of big, strong, physically tuned athletes, Venus and Serena Williams, at the combined age of 68, remain the most powerful players in the game. When you consider that Venus battles not only much younger opponents, but also her own body, her accomplishments stand out beyond the winning of matches and titles.

At the Open four years ago, Venus withdrew and announced she had Sjogren’s syndrome, an autoimmune disorder that causes fatigue, dryness and glandular problems.

She has never used it as an excuse for failing to win and is reticent to even talk about it.

“I believe everybody has their challenges,” Venus said. “I have mine. I put my best foot forward, whatever foot that is. So left, right, whatever. I’m definitely not here to talk about what’s wrong or what’s not wrong.

Everybody’s got problems.

You get out here and play.

If it doesn’t work out, you

go and work harder or go home. That’s it.”

Venus’ road to the quarterfinal has been considerably more difficult than Serena’s, starting with a first-round match against Monica Puig that went three sets and took 2:40.

She also defeated rising Swiss star Belinda Bencic, a convincing two-set victory that seemed to prove she was at the top of her game, as well as being at the top of her age bracket.

Serena had to beat Venus in the round of 16 at Wimbledon in July on the way to winning the championship. That said, she generally would defer to her big sister.

“She knows how to win, knows how to beat me and knows my weaknesses better than anyone,” Serena said. “I would rather lose to Venus as opposed to anyone else.”

But? “I, in general, don’t like to lose.”

As young girls growing up in Compton, California, under the tutelage of their father, Richard, Venus was older and bigger and completely dominant. During their professional careers, Serena has risen to the heavenly heights, and it’s the rivalry with her sister that’s helped get her there.

“I think she helped create me, for sure,” Serena said.

Still, from the baseline of life, they remain sister-sister.

“I feel like Venus and I have definitely proven that you can be friends and you can be sisters,” Serena said.

“You can be enemies on the court, and you can be friends and sisters off the court.”

NEW YORK — Andy Murray watched a 130 mph ace zoom by to create a two-set deficit at the U.S. Open, and then sat in his changeover chair and cursed at himself, over and over and over.

A little later, Murray cracked his racket against the court once, breaking the frame, and went to the sideline and mangled his equipment even more, before meandering over to hand it to someone in the stands.

Often able to spur himself by letting out some anger, the two-time Grand Slam title winner only briefly managed to get into this match. The third-seeded Murray lost before the quarterfinals at a major for the first time since 2010, beaten 7-6 (5), 6-3, 6-7 (2), 7-6 (0) by 15th-seeded Kevin Anderson of South Africa in the fourth round at Flushing Meadows on Monday.

"Disappointing to lose because of that," Murray said about his earlier-than-usual exit.

"Obviously that's many years' work that's gone into building that sort of consistency."

For the 6-foot-8 (2.03meter) Anderson, known mainly for a booming serve but terrific off the ground in this 4-hour, 18-minute victory, it marked a real breakthrough: He entered with an 0-7 record in fourthround matches at majors, including when he had a two-set lead against Novak Djokovic before losing at Wimbledon two months ago.

This time, Anderson held it together, with the help of 25 aces and 81 total winners.

A look at Monday’s play at the $42.3 million U.S. Open tennis championships: Men’s winners: Fourth Round: No. 2 Roger Federer, No. 5 Stan Wawrinka, No. 12. Richard Gasquet and No. 15 Kevin Anderson.

Men’s losers: No. 3, Andy Murray, No. 6 Tomas Berdych, No. 13. John Isner and Donald Young.

Women’s winners: Fourth Round: No. 2 Simona Halep, No. 5 Petra Kvitova, No. 20 Victoria Azarenka and No. 26 Flavia Pennetta.

Women’s losers: No. 22 Sam Stosur, No. 24 Sabine Lisicki, Varvara Lepchenko and Johanna Konta.

"I'm a little lost for words right now," the 29-year-old Anderson said. "I just managed to keep my composure throughout."

Murray, meanwhile, reached at least the quarters at his previous 18 Grand Slam tournaments, a streak that included championships at the U.S. Open in 2012 and Wimbledon in 2013, along with four runner-up finishes.

His last loss this soon also happened in New York, in the third round five years ago.

Adept at comebacks — in the second round, he recorded his eighth victory in a match after dropping the opening two sets — Murray did push Anderson to a fourth set, but that was the extent of the rally this time.

Still, Murray kept trying to rile up himself — and his backers — as the fourth set carried on, even reaching over to slap the extended palm of a frontrow spectator.

"I was trying to use the energy of the crowd as much as I could to help me," Murray said.

Anderson limited his signs of emotion to one uppercut after winning one point by tracking

down a lob and conjuring up a sky-hook winner from the baseline.

And he was perfect at the end, hitting one ace at 135 mph, another at 138 mph, while Murray couldn't get his strokes to land in the right spots.

"I wish," Anderson said, "I could play every tiebreak like that."

In Anderson's first major quarterfinal, he will face yet another twotime major champion, Stan Wawrinka, who eliminated 68th-ranked American Donald Young 6-4, 1-6, 6-3, 6-4.

Roger Federer shut out John Isner in a tiebreaker — something that had never happened to the big-serving, 6-foot-10 American in an official, tour-level match — and won their fourth-round U.S. Open match 7-6 (0), 7-6 (6), 7-5.

Federer broke in the last game, ending Isner’s streak of 110 consecutive service holds at Flushing Meadows over the last two years.

Federer has not dropped a set on the way to a quarterfinal against No. 12 Richard Gasquet, who got past No. 6 Tomas Berdych 2-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-1 earlier Monday night.
