Haggen seeks bankruptcy One analyst says the chain’s massive expansion plan, in which it grew to 164 stores, was doomed from the start.

By Jim Davis The Herald Business Journal

BELLINGHAM — Haggen has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, just months after acquiring 146 stores from Albertsons and Safeway.

The Bellingham-based grocer

filed the petition Tuesday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Delaware.

The company plans to reorganize around its core profitable stores and has received commitments for up to $215 million in financing from existing lenders to maintain operations and the flow of merchandise to its stores.

The company has hired Sagent Advisors to explore the market for the sale of some of its stores.

“The action we are taking today will allow us to continue to serve our customers and communities while providing Haggen with a process to re-align our operations to be positioned for the future,” John Clougher, Haggen’s CEO, said in a statement.

Also, Clougher said in an email that Haggen Southwest

CEO Bill Shaner, who was hired last year to lead the company’s southwest region, is no longer with the company.

Haggen’s expansion was doomed from the start, said David Livingston, who owns DJL, an independent supermarket research firm based in Milwaukee.

Fair attendance drops 4% The decline, after four years of growth, is blamed on bad weather

MONROE — Wind and rain are being blamed for breaking a four-year stint in attendance growth at the 2015 Evergreen State Fair, which closed Monday.

This year, 321,322 people came to Snohomish County’s largest annual event at the fairgrounds along U.S. 2 in Monroe.

That’s down about 4 percent from the average fair attendance during the past five years.

who come here,” fair manager Hal Gausman said. “We’re very dependant on the weather.”

Until this year, the number of fairgoers in Monroe had increased by about 2 percent every year since electronic ticketing was implemented in 2011, Gausman said. In 2014, 348,628 people visited.

The 2015 fair started with nice weather and two days of record attendance. On Aug. 27, opening day, 30,827 people showed up, followed by 27,059 the next day.

But attendance dropped to 18,833 with the windstorm and

rain Aug. 29, Gausman said.

That’s well below the average of about 30,000 people on a Saturday, Gausman said.

“We survived the storm of the summer,” he said. “I was surprised we had the attendance we did ... Some people were calling to ask if we had power because they wanted to eat something warm.”

However, Gausman said, he believes power outages in many communities and fallen branches on the roads caused fewer people to come out.

consequently the fair came later this year, families getting kids ready to go back to school may have contributed to the decreased attendance, Gausman said. Last Thursday, “kids day,” had the fewest fairgoers, with 13,955 visitors.

When the weather improved the fair saw the highest number of people ever with a record 52,095 in attendance Saturday.

The previous record was set in 2014 with 46,273 fairgoers.

He faces two counts of first-degree assault and is charged as an adult for the attack on a boy he believed was a member of a rival gang.

EVERETT — An Everett teenager allegedly admitted he shot another boy three times because he thought the boy was in a rival gang.

Sylius St. Amie, 16, also told police he was angry because he and his girlfriend had been fighting.

Prosecutors on Wednesday charged St. Amie with two counts of first-degree assault. He is charged as an adult because of the serious nature of the crime.

St. Amie turns 17 next week.

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Craig Matheson said that St. Amie is a extreme risk to the community and asked that the boy be held on $1 million bail. The violence Sept. 3 was unprovoked and the defendant admitted that he’s in a gang, Matheson wrote.

His gangs ties are “directly responsible for the motive to shoot (the victims),” the deputy prosecutor added.

The victim, 17, isn’t in a gang.

He and his sister, 14, were walking to Discovery Elementary School, where they planned to practice dance steps for the girl’s upcoming quinceanera, a traditional celebration to mark a girl’s 15th birthday.

They and a friend were on the path between the elementary school and Voyager Middle School when they encountered St. Amie and three girls. Witnesses say St. Amie, dressed in red, asked the other boy if he was “repping blue.” In other words, the defendant wanted to know if the other boy, who was wearing blue shorts, was part of a rival gang.

Some witnesses said the boy didn’t answer. Others remembered him saying, “no.”

Whatever his response, St. Amie became enraged, Matheson wrote. He opened fire, striking the teen three times. The boy received through-and-through wounds to his left arm and right shoulder. He also was hit in the chest.

about $2.5 million annually to put on the fair. In 2014, it ended up with about $1.1 million in revenue after covering costs of running the fairgrounds year-round. That money goes to improvements on site.

Gausman said staff will be crunching the 2015 fair numbers for the next few days. Despite the lower attendance, he expects to have some money after expenses are covered to complete upgrades to the grounds.

The Evergreen State Fair is preparing to compete with the Washington State Fair in Puyallup in 2016.

The Monroe fair has long been held during the 12 days leading up to Labor Day. But beginning next year, Puyallup will kick off its fair on the Friday before the holiday weekend and continue through Sept. 25.

Organizers are adding extra days after a study showed other major fairs had successfully extended their runs, according to information about the change posted on the Puyallup event’s website.

Gausman said many longtime Evergreen vendors will not be able to return to Monroe in

LOCAL BRIEFLY

2016 because of Puyallup changing its dates.

The Monroe fair still has a long list of vendors wanting to sell food and products, he said.

Fair staff also is considering offering vendors shorter contracts in hopes of retaining some of them for at least part of the fair.

Organizers also are working with the Monroe Police Department to find ways to alleviate traffic on U.S. 2 by improving the way the fairground’s parking lots are managed. If the fair were easier to get to, perhaps more people would come, Gausman said.

The staff is not considering changing dates of the Monroe fair because it has traditionally been a 12-day event, ending on Labor Day, he said.

Instead, Gausman plans to give Puyallup a run for its money with increased marketing and more attractive entertainment in Monroe.

He wants the Evergreen State Fair to continue its agricultural focus and ensure it doesn’t become overly commercial.

“We’re trying to protect the character of our fair,” Gausman said. “We’re going to see how next year goes.”

Man killed in pursuit I.D.’d SNOHOMISH — Officials have identified an 18-year-old Everett man who died during a police pursuit on Monday.

He was Pierce L. Milton, according to the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office. His age was misstated in earlier police reports.

Milton was on Cathcart Way in a 1994 BMW sedan, which Snohomish County sheriff’s deputies believed had been stolen, when he was pursued shortly after 9 p.m. The car belonged to Milton’s parents, police confirmed Wednesday.

He reportedly drove across Highway 9 and crashed off the road after a brief pursuit. The car caught fire, and rescue

was a small grocery store chain that had closed 10 stores in the two years before the expansion.

“They didn’t have the wherewithal to do this deal,” Livingston said.

“They were pretty much set up by Albertsons. Albertsons was able to pick exactly who they wanted to take over their stores and they picked the weakest competitor. Were they duped? Yeah, no one argues that.”

The Haggen deal was first announced in December when Albertsons sought to get Federal Trade Commission approval for its merger with Safeway. The FTC ordered Albertsons to shed stores because of anticompetition concerns and Haggen agreed to buy the lion’s share of the locations.

The FTC should have stayed out of the AlbertsonsSafeway merger, Livingston said. He said the grocery store business is competitive

Investigators believe that Donna C. Larsen, 59, of Lynnwood, ran a stop sign before her Buick Skylark was struck by a Ford F350 pickup truck. She died from her injuries.

It happened in the early afternoon at the intersection of 61st Avenue SE and 64th Street SE. The other driver was not seriously hurt.

An off-duty police officer who happened to be in the area made the arrest. A sheriff’s deputy suffered minor cuts during the incident.

in the West Coast without intervention from the FTC. “In those markets, you have Walmart, WinCo, Costco, Whole Foods,” Livingston said. “The competition is endless.”

The FTC approved the deal after reviewing Haggen’s business plan, financial projections and sources of capital, said Dan Ducore, assistant director of the FTC’s Bureau of Competition, last month.

He said the FTC was satisified with the deal.

With the expansion, Haggen went from 18 stores with 2,000 employees to 164 stores with 10,000 employees across the West Coast.

Problems started surfacing almost immediately.

Newspapers in California and Arizona reported that customers complained about the cost of Haggen items compared to other grocery stores.

Last month, Haggen announced that it would close or sell 27 stores in California, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. Last week, the company filed a $1

billion lawsuit against Albertsons.

Haggen said it didn’t get the support from Albertsons that the purchase agreement or the FTC required.

Haggen alleged that Albertsons used confidential information to ramp up competition with Haggen as its stores opened. Boisebased Albertsons used the confidential store conversion schedule to place well-timed advertisements, coupons and deals to draw customers away from Haggen, according to Haggen’s complaint. Also, Albertsons didn’t carry on businessas-usual up until handing over the keys to Haggen, as required by the FTC and the purchase agreement, Haggen said.

Haggen further accused Albertsons of purposefully running out of some items, overstocking perishable items — including loading meat freezers at one store with 256 cases of frozen turkeys — and diverting stock away from soon-to-be-closed stores before store conversions, all of which violated the

purchase agreement.

But Haggen also is facing several lawsuits related to the expansion.

Albertsons sued Haggen for $41 million for failing to pay for inventory, a worker sued for wrongful termination and a Los Angeles County retail union filed grievances with both Haggen and Albertsons for violating collective bargaining agreements.

In its bankruptcy filing, Haggen’s biggest creditor is listed as United Grocers, a wholesale distributor to which it owes $14.8 million. The paperwork lists 30 total creditors. Others are supermarket service and IT providers, construction firms, former CEO Dale Henley, and vendors including Pepsi, Charlie’s Produce and Frito-Lay. Haggen has seven locations in Snohomish County — in Everett, Marysville, Monroe, Lake Stevens, Snohomish, Clearview and Stanwood.

They eventually told police that St. Amie was hiding in a house on 115th Street SW. A SWAT team attempted to get the teen to surrender. He refused and several hours later tear gas was fired into the house.

Deputies found him lying on a shelf in a closet.

The also found a .22-caliber handgun in the house.

The gun was reported stolen May 11.

St. Amie is expected to be arraigned Friday. He doesn’t have any prior felony convictions.

Gang crimes are on the increase in Snohomish County. The day of the shooting another suspected gang member was in a Snohomish County

Superior Court answering to allegations that he shot a 15-year-old boy last month in south Everett.

Juan Beteran Monrroy pleaded not guilty to firstdegree assault and drive-by shooting. He was being held on $500,000 bail.

Prosecutors allege that Beteran Monrroy, 18, opened fire on a pickup truck using a military-style assault rifle. His targets are believed to be connected to a rival gang.

The victim was struck in the armpit. The bullet perforated his heart but the teen is expected to recover, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Bob Langbehn wrote.

Police were told that on Aug. 16 the boy and three other gang members were riding around looking for

Beteran Monrroy with the intent to beat him up. They were stopped at a light and noticed him beside them in a Honda.

Beteran Monrroy allegedly placed the rifle on top of his car and pointed it at the victims. They threw a metal bat and a knife at him and then sped away.

He gave chase and allegedly fired several rounds at the pickup truck.

Deputies found bullet holes in the pickup’s tailgate, back window and backseat.

Monrroy was arrested at a nearby apartment complex. They found a rifle in the car. Police also found a revolver under the front passenger seat.

Lake Stevens teen struck by car identified Herald staff LAKE STEVENS — A high school student who was struck by a car and died Tuesday has been identified as William L. ArroyoRamirez, 17, of Lake Stevens.

His name was released

Wednesday by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office. The crash happened just after 6 a.m. Tuesday on Highway 9 near Hillcrest Elementary School and Fourth Street SE. Arroyo-Ramirez attended Crossroads High School in

Granite Falls. The school held a moment of silence Wednesday in his honor.

“He was a sweet kid who always had a smile on his face,” Principal Bridgette Perrigoue said.

The Granite Falls School District is helping organize a

spaghetti-feed fundraiser for the boy’s family from 5 to 7 p.m. Saturday at the Eagles club, 402 N. Granite Ave., Granite Falls.

The Lake Stevens Haggens store, where he worked, is donating the food for the fundraiser.

An online fundraiser and

details of a memorial service may be announced at a later date.

Lake Stevens police continue to investigate. The driver of the silver Chevrolet Cobalt was a Monroe-area man in his early 40s. He stayed at the scene and cooperated with detectives.

Perry Gilberts, of Oso, looks at historical photos placed on the side of the Nakashima Barn on Highway 9 north of Arlington. The Centennial Trail, popular with walkers and cyclists, begins at the barn and continues 30 miles south to Snohomish.

History peppers Centennial Trail The Snohomish County Historic Preservation Commission is hoping to take you back in time.

By Kari Bray Herald Writer

MACHIAS — People can take a stroll back in time during the Centennial Trail History Walk this weekend.

The event goes from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday at four main locations along the trail: the Machias trailhead off South Machias Road; the Bryant trailhead on Highway 9 north of Arlington; the Nakashima Barn at the far north end of the trail near the Skagit County line; and in Snohomish at the corner of Pine and Maple streets.

The 30-mile Centennial Trail follows old railroad lines running north and south across the county.

Fred Cruger, a volunteer with the Granite Falls Historical Museum, plans to be at the Machias trailhead Saturday with information and artifacts related

to the history of railroads in Snohomish County. Gold in the mountains at and around Monte Cristo lured railway developers to the area and the railroads were booming by the early 1900s.

Large maps that show railroad routes from that era are set to be on display. One map lays the routes on top of modern aerial photos so people can find where the railroad was in relation to their homes, businesses or schools.

“We realize people are on the trail and they maybe won’t want to stop for long, but I think it will suck a few people in,” Cruger said. “It’s going to be a combination of unusual tools, pictures people have probably never seen and maps on a grandiose scale.”

People can see and touch old railroad equipment like railroad spurs, mauls and picks from the museum, too. There also are photos of the old railway cars and railroad work.

The three other locations on the trail will have different information and displays.

A storyteller from the Tulalip Tribes is scheduled to be at one, a woman demonstrating

traditional basket weaving at another and the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Museum will be represented at the third.

Specific locations are being finalized.

The Snohomish County Historic Preservation Commission is putting on the walk and came up with the idea, said Wendy Becker, the county’s economic and cultural development officer.

Public lectures and presentations in the past have been hit and miss in terms of attendance, she said. It makes sense to go where the people are.

The Centennial Trail offers landmarks that mix modern recreation and historic information, she said. Along with the history of railroads and gold mining are traces of small communities that no longer exist and families who made a lasting mark on the county.

The Nakashima Farm site highlights land that was “sold for pennies” after the owners were forced into Japanese internment camps during World War II, Becker said.

The Machias trailhead has a small building that is a replica of

the original 1890 railroad depot there. The trailhead in Snohomish can connect people to the city’s expansive historic district.

“This popular asset that we have in Snohomish County is so rich in history,” she said.

“Hopefully people will respond to (the walk) and we can make it bigger next year. It would be cool if it could become a big annual event.”

Coordinators plan to have children’s activities along with the speakers, interactive exhibits and historic items. The event is free.

“People can come to the trail specifically to learn about their local history, or if they’re just out getting their exercise they can stop and see,” Becker said.

The Centennial Trail was created by the county in 1989 while Washington was celebrating a century of statehood. The county parks department estimates 520,000 people use the trail each year.

More historical information and trail maps are online at www. centennialtrail.com.

EDMONDS — After years of work, the 9/11 memorial park in Edmonds is expected to be completed soon.

An opening ceremony is planned for 9:11 a.m. Friday, and marks 14 years since the terrorist attacks on U.S. soil.

The event, one of several remembering 9/11 in Snohomish County this week, is organized by the firefighters union, Local 1828.

The centerpiece of the memorial park near Fire Station 17, 275 Sixth Ave. N, is a one-ton steel beam that was recovered from the site of the New York attacks. The rusted, dented beam is upheld by two stainless steel towers designed to look like the World Trade Center, firefighter Dave Erickson said.

“You will have the image of the stainless towers bright and shining in the sun just like we remember them from the New York skyline,” he said.

A stained glass memorial wall at the park has more than 3,000 panels. Red panels represent firefighters killed in the attacks, with blue for police officers.

“They will form the shape of a unfurling American flag,” Erickson said. “That whole wall will be transparent. Like a stained glass wall, it will light up when the sun comes up in the morning.”

The 9/11 memorial project was paid for with about $50,000 in donations. Much of the labor was donated, Erickson said. A separate sculpture at the park honors local firefighters who have died in the line of duty.

The Fire District 1 Honor Guard will play “Amazing Grace,” followed by taps performed by Debbie Dawson, the senior animal control officer for the Edmonds Police Department.

Some of the smaller pieces in the park — plaques, signs and paving stones — will be added later, Erickson said.

Because it’s highly probable the court won’t change its mind, the state’s attorneys also will ask justices to provide enough time for the commission to extricate the public’s fingers from these operations.

That also will give founders of the schools a chance to take their next step, which presumably will be to become private schools for the foreseeable future.

On that point, the Washington State Charter School Association, a private group that raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to assist the schools, is making sure money won’t be an issue. Its leaders vow

said before the meeting.

“These are real schools.

These are real kids that are being impacted by the decisions made by adults.”

Conversations already are occurring on how to keep schools open and fix the law.

But first, the Attorney General’s Office and lawyers for initiative backers will try to convince the Supreme Court — or at least a majority — to reconsider and retreat from its original decision. That motion must be filed within 20 days of the ruling.

to drum up the estimated $14 million needed to keep every school open through June.

Meanwhile, figuring out how to legitimize charter schools will be much harder as it will require action by lawmakers.

Republicans in the House and Senate want to move swiftly to carve out a spot in state law for charter schools and spell out where funding for them will come from.

Seattle Rep. Eric Pettigrew wants to act quickly along those lines as well.

In Lake Stevens, the local ceremony was first held in 2010 and has continued every year, said Tom Thorleifson, a spokesman for the Lake Stevens American Legion Post 181. Legion members partner with the city and the police and fire departments, he said.

“We knew we needed to do this,” Thorleifson said.

“It’s something that should be in every community. We do it for the community.”

Marysville has hosted an annual 9/11 memorial service, Fire Marshal Tom Maloney said. Mayor Jon Nehring will speak at Friday’s event. The Marysville service also remembers local fire Lt. Jeff Thornton, who died from cancer in 2001.

chambers have been silent on the situation, too.

Without their buy-in, it’s a cinch this will be a debate left for the 2016 legislative session.

Jim Spady, a charter school supporter who has been on the front lines of this civic war since 1994, vowed the court action won’t be the last word.

“We are going to do whatever it takes,” declared Spady, an executive of Dick’s Drive-in. “We are having charter schools in Washington state. They are here. They are working. We haven’t come this far to be sidetracked,” Spady said.

Alzheimer’s may be transmittable The Washington Post A new study suggests that the precursor of an abnormal protein that triggers Alzheimer’s disease could perhaps be transmitted from person to person through the transfer of tissue or certain specialized medical or surgical procedures, its authors said.

Just as some rogue proteins can cause additional rogue proteins to form in the brain, such as the prions that produce mad cow disease, the new findings suggest that there may be a seed that carries the abnormal protein that drives Alzheimer’s disease. The paper was published Wednesday in

the journal Nature.

However, the study’s lead author took pains to emphasize that the findings do not mean that Alzheimer’s disease is contagious.

John Collinge, a professor of neurology at University College London who was the study’s lead author, emphasized that the observational study focused on a small group of people who were unwittingly infected with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease when they were given contaminated, human-derived growth hormone as children.

Prior to 1985, the growth hormone was manufactured from extracts of tissue taken

from the pituitary glands of cadavers, many of which were infected with prions that cause CJD, which steadily destroys brain tissue.

In examining the brains of several of those people who later died of CJD, the scientists were startled to find that many of them also had buildups of amyloid beta, an abnormal protein that can set the process of Alzheimer’s in motion.

The deposits of amyloid beta were striking, given that the people had died at relatively young ages, Collinge said. His team concluded that a plausible explanation for the buildup was that the seeds of beta amyloid had been transmitted

along with the fatal prions of Creutzfelt-Jakob disease.

His team’s work suggested that further research is needed to explore the possibility that the rogue protein that triggers Alzheimer’s disease could be transmitted through extracts of human tissue, certain kinds of transplants or perhaps improperly sterilized surgical instruments.

“I don’t think there needs to be any alarm that we’re saying any way that you can catch Alzheimer’s disease,” Collinge said. “It’s simply referring to the induction of this pathology in the brain following these injections of tissue extracts.”

A ‘flawless’ response The Boeing 777 was accelerating for takeoff in Las Vegas when one of its engines caught fire.

WASHINGTON — Federal scientists said Wednesday they expect nuisance flooding to increase in many places along the nation’s coasts in coming months.

A combination of sea level rise from human caused global warming and the giant El Nino will likely combine to increase the type of minor street flooding that causes much inconvenience but no major damage, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

In 10 of the 27 coastal communities that NOAA examined, scientists predict the number of nuisance flood days to increase 33 percent to 125 percent with the current large El Nino. And it’s likely to be the worst in the Mid-Atlantic region where nuisance floods could happen

WASHINGTON — Hillary Clinton issued a hardline warning to Iran on Wednesday that as president she would “not hesitate” to take military action to stop the country from acquiring nuclear weapons. Casting herself as a key player in talks that led to the landmark agreement to control Iran’s nuclear program, Clinton praised the accord as part of a larger Middle East strategy even as she stressed that it is not a step toward normalizing relations. “We should anticipate that Iran will test the next president,” she told a Washington thinktank. “They’ll want to see how far they can bend the rules.”

National Geographic is sold The 127-year-old nonprofit National Geographic Society has struck a $725 million deal that gives 21st Century Fox a majority stake in National Geographic magazine and other media properties, expanding an existing TV partnership.

The agreement announced Wednesday will give the company controlled by Rupert Murdoch’s family a 73 percent stake in the new National Geographic Partners venture. The society retains 27 percent ownership. The move shifts the longtime nonprofit flagship magazine into a for-profit venture.

A Texas man admitted Wednesday in federal court that he acted as a secret agent for the Russian government and headed an operation over about 10 years to export military technology to that country. Alexander Fishenko, a naturalized U.S. citizen and owner of Houston-based Arc Electronics Inc., pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Brooklyn to numerous crimes, including money laundering, obstruction of justice and acting as an agent of the Russian government in the United States. A sentencing date hasn’t been set.

City plans first salt warning ERIC HAYS / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Smoke billows out from a Boeing 777-200 that caught fire at McCarren International Airport on Tuesday.

This is a highly unusual event to have an engine failure of this magnitude.

— John Cox, aviation safety consultant

anywhere from 40 to 100 mph, the pilot brought it to an abrupt halt. “Mayday, mayday,” said the calm, deliberate voice from the plane’s cockpit to the air traffic control tower, requesting help with a fire.

“We are evacuating on the runway. We have a fire. I repeat. We are evacuating,” the voice said.

From the fire’s start to its quick end — and an evacuation in between — the whole dramatic scene lasted five minutes.

Fire officials and airline observers described the response as flawless, the result of daily training that made the

airliner’s rare blown engine seem routine. They also noted the number of passengers on the plane was far below its capacity of 275.

No one knows yet what caused the blaze, but investigators have arrived in Las Vegas to find out.

“We’re interested in the exact chain of events,” said National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Eric Weiss.

Terrorism is not suspected; airport director Rosemary Vassiliadis said Wednesday there was “no indication whatsoever” it was a factor.

The plane had two GE90 engines made by GE Aviation,

and the company said heat distress was evident on the left side’s engine and fuselage.

The large plane was built in 1998 and registered to British Airways a year later. By the end of 2013, it had been flown for 76,618 hours, according to the British Civil Aviation Authority.

That’s about average for that model aircraft, said John Cox, an aviation safety consultant and a captain with U.S. Airways for 23 years.

“It has a remarkably good safety record,” he said of the 777 model, first introduced in 1994.

“This is a highly unusual event to have an engine failure of this magnitude.”

Las Vegas’ airport is the ninthbusiest in the U.S. and had nearly 43 million passengers last year. The airport has been taking steps to accommodate more international travelers seeking direct flights to Europe and Asia, including adding new gates to accommodate wide-body double-decker jets.

Clinton threatens Iran with attack

New York: Russian agent

Associated Press LAS VEGAS — Passengers saw flames, heard blasts and smelled burning rubber on the runway. Some were already settled in for the long flight to London and didn’t wait to grab their shoes before dashing toward the inflatable slides.

British Airways Flight 2276, a Boeing 777-200, was accelerating for takeoff Tuesday when one of its engines caught fire, forcing the plane’s 157 passengers and 13 crew members to escape on emergency slides.

They then rushed across the hot tarmac, unsure if they were fleeing a bomb or a blown tire.

“Everyone was screaming, ‘Just keep on running!’ ” said passenger Karen Bravo, a 60-year-old Las Vegas resident who abandoned her flip-flops on the plane.

When they finally stopped running and turned around, they saw black smoke and flames.

“It was like a scene out of ‘Die Hard,’ ” Bravo said.

As bad as it looked, it could have been much worse. The airplane came to a screeching halt, firefighters responded quickly and the flames didn’t reach the plane’s full fuel tank or breach the cabin.

The passengers and crew all made it off the plane, and any injuries were minor — a result of the bumps, bruises and scrapes from sliding from an airplane. The 27 people sent to a hospital were treated and released the same day. They included all 13 crew members.

The ordeal began as the plane sped down the runway for takeoff.

ACROSS THE U.S.

about once a week from New Jersey to North Carolina. The nuisance flood season runs mostly from fall to early spring.

NOAA oceanographer William Sweet examined data going back to 1920 in some cases and found the flooding is not only increasing with climate change and rising seas, but “some of these areas you can get it with no rain at all — high-tide flooding.”

These “sunny day flooding” events are becoming more common. For example, Wilmington, North Carolina, used to average one day of nuisance flooding a year in 1960 but between May 2014 and April 2015, that city had 71 such flood days, according to NOAA data. Annapolis, Maryland, went from four to 41 flood days and Sandy Hook, New Jersey, jumped from two to 21.

El Nino — a general warming of parts of the Pacific that

changes weather worldwide — brings nuisance flooding to a new level. That’s because in the Pacific, the ocean is warmer and warm water expands, Sweet said. In the Atlantic, the phenomenon brings more coastal-hugging storms and winds.

“Expect that sea level rise will progress like steps of a kitten, punctured by swipes of a lion,” said Donald Boesch, president of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science.

Sweet is forecasting that with El Nino, Norfolk, Virginia, to go from about eight flood days to 18 this fall, winter and spring.

Washington is forecast to jump from 33 to 53 nuisance floods days. Sandy Hook should get about 40 such days and Baltimore is likely to jump from two weeks of nuisance flooding to three weeks.

Sweet looked at increased

nuisance flooding in Boston; Providence, Rhode Island; New London, Connecticut; Battery Park, Kings Point, and Montauk, New York; Atlantic City and Sandy Hook, New Jersey; Philadelphia; Lewes, Delaware; Baltimore and Annapolis, Maryland; Washington; Norfolk, Virginia; Wilmington, North Carolina; Charleston, South Carolina; Fort Pulaski, Georgia; Fernandina Beach, Key West and Mayport, Florida; Port Isabel and Galveston, Texas; La Jolla, California; San Francisco, Seattle and Honolulu.

NASA oceanographer Bill Patzert said the NOAA forecast “shows that the natural hazards don’t necessarily have to be catastrophic like (hurricanes) Katrina or Sandy. They can creep up on you today. What is a nuisance today in a couple decades will be a serious problem for some communities.”

Salty fare from sandwiches to salads will soon come with a first-of-its-kind warning label at chain restaurants in New York City. The city Board of Health voted unanimously Wednesday to require chain eateries to put salt-shaker symbols on menus to denote dishes with more than the recommended daily limit of 2,300 milligrams of sodium.

That’s about a teaspoon. New York is the first U.S. city with such a requirement, which comes as officials and experts urge Americans to eat healthier. It furthers a series of novel nutritional efforts in the nation’s biggest city.

AROUND THE WORLD Egypt: ISIS holds hostages The Islamic State group Wednesday claimed to be holding a Norwegian man and a Chinese consultant hostage and demanded ransom for their release. The extremist group posted pictures of the two men wearing yellow prison outfits in the latest issue of its online magazine Dabiq. The magazine lists a telegram number for “whoever would like to pay the ransom for his release and transfer.”

Iran: Russian air rights The government opened its airspace to Russian military planes flying into Syria after the denial of overflight permission by NATO countries in the region, a Russian diplomat in Tehran told the Tass news agency Wednesday. The move by Iran allows Russia to continue flying humanitarian aid to Syria, one senior Foreign Ministry official said, and another noted that Russia “has never made a secret” of its arms sales and military collaboration with the government of Syrian President Bashar Assad. U.S. intelligence sources said last week that satellite imagery shows a significant buildup of Russian arms and equipment in Syria.

Britain: Queen tops record It was a day for the history books. But it was not in her majesty’s temperament to make much of a fuss. On Wednesday, at about 5:30 p.m., Queen Elizabeth II became the longest reigning monarch in Britain’s proud and often turbulent history, dating back more than a millennium to the days when kings and queens enjoyed absolute power. Serving as sovereign for 23,226 days (about 63 years and 7 months), according to Buckingham Palace, Elizabeth surpassed Queen Victoria, her great-great-grandmother, a woman so powerful that she stamped an era with her name.

Boeing 767 output to rise The number of workers on the program will likely increase slightly.

By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

EVERETT — Boeing is ramping up work on its 767 assembly line in Everett from the current 1.5 airplanes a month to 2.5 a month by the end of 2017.

Demand has picked up for the twin-aisle airplane thanks to two customers; FedEx and the U.S. Air

Force.

In July, FedEx placed the biggest single order for 767s in the program’s history, ordering 50 freighters. Also, Boeing expects to build 179 KC-46 aerial refueling tankers based on the 767 for the Air Force.

That gives the program a “healthy backlog extending midway into the next decade,” Boeing said in an announcement sent to employees Wednesday morning.

The rate increase will happen in the fourth quarter of 2017, the announcement said.

Boeing already plans to increase the rate to 2 a month in 2016.

“This is exciting news for the program and a testament to how the reliable and versatile 767 has evolved to continue to meet changing market needs,” said Brad Zaback, the 767 program’s general manager. “Today’s 767 Freighters are the best they’ve ever been.”

The company continues “to invest in the production line and the airplane to improve its capability,” he said.

The number of workers on

the program will likely increase slightly as the 2017 rate increase approaches, he said.

In addition to its 50 firm orders placed in July, FedEx also has options for another 50 767 freighters.

FedEx now accounts for the program’s entire nonmilitary backlog.

In all, it has 79 unfilled 767 orders, according to Boeing’s website.

Apple shows off its latest lineup The company unveils its latest iPhone, a bigger iPad and a revamped TV box.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Apple CEO Tim Cook discusses Apple TV product advancements during the Apple event at the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium in San Francisco on Wednesday.

For now, however, the iPhone is still Apple’s most important product. Sales of the iconic smartphone contributed more than two-thirds of the Cupertino, California, company’s $107 billion in revenue during the first half of 2015.

Apple announced Wednesday that it will sell two new iPhone models, dubbed the 6s and 6s Plus, starting Sept. 25. They’re roughly the same size and will cost the same as the recordselling 6 and 6 Plus models introduced last year, which will now sell for $100 less.

The new iPhones will have more memory and faster processors, along with a new 12 mega-pixel camera.

Perhaps the most noticeable

upgrade, however, is the addition of “3D Touch,” a feature that uses added screen sensors to detect the difference between a light tap and extended finger pressure, triggering different menus and functions for apps made by Apple and outside developers.

“No matter what you like to do with your phone, 3D Touch makes it better than ever,” boasted Apple Senior Vice President Craig Federighi.

Some analysts have questioned how compelling the new features will be. Apple sold more than 183 million iPhones since the last models were introduced in 2014, which is 40 percent more than it sold in the same period a year earlier. But the company may be hard-pressed to show more

The number of available jobs jumped sharply in July to the highest level in 15 years, evidence that confident employers sought to step up hiring to meet greater demand for their goods and services. Job openings soared 8 percent to 5.75 million, the most since records began in 2000, the Labor Department said Wednesday. Yet overall hiring slumped, suggesting that employers are slow to fill the jobs they have advertised.

The big jump in openings in July would typically point to greater hiring in the months ahead. The sharp rise could lead to larger paychecks. As more employers compete to fill available jobs, they may be forced to raise wages to attract candidates.

The maker of the Egg McMuffin is taking a stand, and it could drastically change the eggs Americans eat. McDonald’s announced Wednesday that it will begin working toward eliminating all eggs purchased from farms that cage their hens, in both the U.S. and Canada. The phaseout, which could take as long as 10 years, is in line with the company’s recent shift toward cage-free eggs in the European Union and Australia. It also comes on the heels of McDonald’s move away from chicken treated with antibiotics — a move seen as important to human health.

growth, especially when smartphone sales are slowing.

“That’s one big concern about Apple, that it’s so dependent on the iPhone,” said Jerry Kim, a Columbia University management professor.

Cook, while insisting there is room for iPhone sales to grow, has begun pushing into new product categories. In addition to the Apple Watch, introduced earlier this year, executives spent a large part of Wednesday’s event showing off the new Apple TV. The new TV box is a significant upgrade from older versions the company has sold since 2007. It has a more powerful processor and updated software for running See APPLE, Page A8

Old school business being put to bed Even as online shopping has exploded, the process of buying a mattress has remained remarkably — even stubbornly — consistent: Trek to a department store or a strip-mall shop.

Now a nascent but potentially serious threat to that old-school business model has arrived, and it’s showing up on shoppers’ doorsteps in a box that’s about the size of a mini-fridge.

Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO — Apple staked a new claim to the living room Wednesday, as the maker of iPhones and other hand-held gadgets unveiled an Internet TV system that’s designed as a beachhead for the tech giant’s broader ambitions to deliver a wide range of information, games, music and video to the home.

CEO Tim Cook and other executives also showed off two new iPhone models, a plus-sized iPad with detachable keyboard and updated software for the Apple Watch during an exhaustive, twohour event in San Francisco’s Bill Graham Civic Auditorium.

Apple is counting on sales of the new iPhones to maintain its position as one of the most profitable, and valuable, companies in the world.

But it’s the new Apple TV system that some analysts point to as an important step for the company as Cook attempts to build a business that doesn’t rely so heavily on the iPhone.

“Apple is laying the groundwork for a broader living-room strategy” said Ben Bajarin from the research firm Creative Strategies. Apple wants to make the already-important TV screen into an essential hub for communication and entertainment, he said.

“TV plays a huge role in our lives and it occupies an important place in our homes,” Cook said.

He added that Apple believes “the future of television is apps” that deliver streaming video, games and other services.

Indiana firm wins big Army contract AM General, which two weeks ago lost out on a major Department of Defense contract, has been awarded a $428 million contract by the Army to build Humvee ambulances for domestic disaster relief efforts by the Army, Army Reserve and Army National Guard. The company said Tuesday it will receive $89.5 million to build 654 vehicles for the National Guard under the initial phase of the multiyear contract. The vehicles will be produced at AM General’s plant in Mishawaka, about 10 miles east of its headquarters in South Bend, Indiana.

The company didn’t say if the contract would lead to an expansion of its workforce.

France plans to close oldest nuclear plant The French government said it will close the nation’s oldest nuclear plant no later than 2018 as part of a plan to reduce dependency on nuclear power. A spokesman said Wednesday the government will issue a decree that will start process of closing the nuclear plant of Fessenheim at the beginning of 2016. At that point, he said “the process will be irreversible.” Close to Germany’s border, Fessenheim has become a symbol for antinuclear campaigners who say it is unsafe. France passed a law in July to reduce the share of nuclear power to 50 percent by 2025 from the current 75 percent, which is greater than in any other nation.

STOCK MARKET SUMMARY

U.S. stocks slumped Wednesday after an early rally fizzled. The declines were led by energy stocks as the price of crude oil fell sharply. Traders also worried that a report showing that the number of available jobs soared in July could convince Federal Reserve policymakers to raise interest rates.

wholesale shipments last year, according to trade publication Furniture Today. About half of the industry’s revenue growth in 2014 came from price increases, the trade group International Sleep Products Association said.

As these mattress newcomers try to reinvent this utilitarian purchase, they join a groundswell of e-commerce players that are each trying to break open a shopping category that has largely been defined by a bewildering or just plain outdated shopping experience.

There’s Warby Parker, which is offering relatively cheap, stylish eyeglasses that it designs in-house and sells directly to customers (all while making monthly donations to nonprofit groups that aim to increase access to glasses in the developing world). Harry’s, a subscription razor company, bought its own factory in Germany, which it says lowers the cost of its highquality razors. Primary, a new kids’ clothing site, is trying to make it easier and cheaper to replace pieces for fast-growing little ones by making only a limited number of low-cost basics for newborns up to elementary schoolers.

Investors and experts see vast potential in these online mattress purveyors, betting that their convenience and their evangelism about gimmick-free pricing will be welcomed by shoppers in an industry that is notorious for confusing pricing tactics.

Videos of customers “unboxing” their Caspers — and showing the mattress going from rolled up to unfurled and ready for use­— have garnered tens of thousands of YouTube

Internet apps and games on TVs, along with streaming music and video. It will start at $149 and will be available in late October.

An integral part of Apple’s system is a handheld remote that can be controlled with a touch screen and voice commands, allowing users to request information and search for music, movies or TV shows by using Apple’s electronic assistant, Siri.

Apple Inc. isn’t alone in its ambitions for the living room. It’s entering a market where rivals such as Roku, Amazon and Nvidia already sell voice-activated TV systems at prices ranging from $100 to $250.

Google makes a streaming video device, Chromecast, that sells for $35.

Still, even competitors say Apple’s clout could change the landscape of the living room.

Apple’s popularity will make more consumers aware of the streaming technology, while encouraging developers to build more games and apps for TV screens, said Matt Wuebbling, general manager for Nvidia’s Shield system.

Apple TV is unlikely to hurt sales for gaming consoles like the Xbox and PlayStation, however. For now, at least, analysts say those consoles still provide “hard-core” gaming enthusiasts with more elaborate effects and faster processing speeds than what’s generally been available over the Internet.

Cook and his top lieutenants on Wednesday also showed off a new iPad Pro with a 13-inch screen, attachable keyboard and a stylus, which the company hopes will help turn around a two-year slump in iPad sales. Earlier full-sized iPads have had 10-inch screens.

views.

“If the major sellers are not worried about it, they perhaps should be, especially because of the rising tide of millennials buying homes and furnishings,” said Ed Perratore, senior editor at Consumer Reports who covers the mattress industry. “I don’t think that they have the patience for this.”

Casper sold $30 million in mattresses in its first year in business, a solid start that led investors to give it a fresh infusion of $55 million in June to help it expand further.

Still, for now, these online-centric start-ups are selling only a tiny fraction of the number of mattresses that are sold each year by their legacy competitors: Tempur Sealy, a public company that includes upscale memory foam brand Tempur-Pedic as well as the more value-oriented Sealy; and Serta Simmons, a private-equity owned entity that houses the Serta and Simmons brands.

And retail experts say that these older brands’ enduring strength may be a sign that it’s going to be hard to persuade people to make such a big-ticket purchase without laying on it first.

“Comfort is subjective, and testing is one of the key ways of evaluating comfort,” said Jessica Schoen Mace, an analyst at Nomura Securities who covers the mattress industry. “So I do think having

physical stores will be an advantage.”

But the upstarts say the status quo has not been good for consumers and has helped contribute to a frustrating shopping experience.

“You’re just overwhelmed by a sea of off-white options that all kind of look the same and sound the same and feel the same, but range in price from a few hundred bucks to $10,000,” said Phillip Krim, Casper’s chief executive.

It doesn’t help that big manufacturers make exclusive mattresses that are sold only at a single retailer.

“It’s quite deliberate by the mattress industry that they have created models that you can’t actually compare so that people can’t price match,” said Laura Manes, principal management consultant at retail consultancy Jackman Reinvents.

Because the original ticket price at a traditional mattress store is almost never the price a customer actually pays, it’s generally hard to know how the prices at those chains stack up against Casper’s $850 queen-size mattress or Leesa’s $890 product of

the same size.

Casper and other startups are attempting to do things differently than the legacy competitors. The newcomers say they are slashing costs on their mattresses by eliminating retail partners and real estate expenses, and none offers “40 percent off”-type specials because they think consumers will respond better to more straightforward pricing.

Indeed, that was part of the appeal of a Casper for Aspa Clark, a Charleston, South Carolina, resident who purchased a twinsize mattress for her guest room in January.

She had browsed at local mattress stores and warehouse clubs, but, Clark said, “I just found it was not all that transparent, all the costs that might be associated.”

At the mattress store, Clark found the store employees were often busy helping several customers, and so, she said, “I couldn’t ever get enough time and enough understanding of, did the price include a box spring? Did it include delivery? It just wasn’t that clear to me.”

The mattress startups are also aiming to distinguish themselves

with feel-good promises: Casper and Keetsa tout their “eco-friendly” supply chains; Leesa stresses that its product is American-made.

Each of these mattress start-ups also has opted for a very narrow range of product offerings: Casper, Leesa, Yogabed and Tuft & Needle have just one mattress that is available in twin, queen, king and other sizes.

The rationale is this: “There is a universal feel that is right for about 95 percent of the people,” said David Wolfe, chief executive of Leesa. “And if you get the feel right, then you’ll find a very, very small percentage of people find the mattress too firm or too soft.”

Still, the traditional mattress industry is not convinced that Casper and its e-commerce rivals offer a better shopping experience.

“Mattresses are not one size fits all,” said Tim Thomasson, store manager at Mt. Vernon Sleep Galleries in Fredericksburg, Virginia. “I have done this for 16 years, and I’ve seen people who can literally sleep on anything, but that’s not the majority of people.”

IN OUR VIEW | Every Kid in a Park

Creating parks’ new stewards Don’t stow the camping gear and hiking boots just yet.

As we move into fall, good weather may inspire some to stretch the camping season, and autumn can offer the most colorful time to take a walk in the woods.

And there’s another incentive, particularly for those families whose fourth-graders have just returned to class.

President’s Obama’s Every Kid in a Park offers free National Park admission passes to fourth-graders and their families, as Herald Writer Jessi Loerch reported in The Herald’s Explore NW blog this week. The potential savings are not insignificant, considering this year’s fee increase for most national parks, and it’s especially helpful for those families on a budget. Admission to Mount Rainier and Olympic National Park, for example, is now $20 for a vehicle, driver and passengers.

Registration for the passes is simple: Children in the fourth-grade and their parents

or guardians can sign up for the free passes, good between now and Aug. 31, 2016, at www.everykidinapark.gov.

The website also offers help for planning trips and lesson plans for educators.

The opportunity for students and their families to visit our national parks comes during what will be an eventful year.

Although the first national park, Yellowstone, was created in 1872, the National Park Service was inaugurated by President Woodrow Wilson on Aug. 25, 1916, meaning the park service will celebrate its centennial next year. Along with a chance to experience the natural and geographical world around them, the next year will also offer a living lesson in American history about the events and people, including naturalist and “Father of the National Park Service” John Muir and President Teddy Roosevelt.

Even if the camping gear has been stowed for the season,

fourth-graders can still talk their parents into weekend day trips, not just to Rainier or the Olympics, but to other national park sites in Washington state, some of which are already admission free, including the North Cascades National Park, Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve on Whidbey Island, the San Juan Island National Historical Park, the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park in downtown Seattle and the national recreation areas at Lake Chelan and Lake Roosevelt.

The free admission to national parks, of course, offers benefits for fourthgraders and their families, an opportunity for exercise, clean air, education and an appreciation for the world around them. But there’s also a benefit for the parks themselves.

With Congress back in session, one of the pieces of legislation now up for consideration is renewal of the Water and Land Conservation Fund, which provides grants

and other funding for local, state and national parks and preserves. The fund, now in its 50th year, is supported exclusively by royalties from offshore oil-drilling leases. Congress has only until Sept. 30 to reauthorize the program. Public support of the fund will be crucial to its continued existence.

Every Kid in a Park also is important because it endeavors to create new stewards for our public lands, teaching children and reminding adults that places like Rainier and Ebey’s Landing and other parks not yet created need to be preserved for themselves and for their children by showing them how they are already linked to these places.

A few years before his death in 1914, John Muir wrote: “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the Universe.”

By being good stewards of our parks and public lands — by saving them — we save ourselves.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■ARLINGTON

Tolbert makes city better place I am writing you today about Mayor Barbara Tolbert. I met Barbara in 2011, when I was one of the Board of Directors with the Arlington SmokeyPoint Chamber of Commerce.

What I truly like about her, is that she is approachable, very easy to talk with, and seems to be a very down-to-earth type of person with great leadership skills. The more I got to know her, I became very impressed with her wisdom, her organization skills and the great love she has for the city of Arlington.

The countless hours she put in when the tragedy at Oso occurred were staggering.

Making sure all the families and volunteers were taken care of during this terrible time of need. I truly believe she has made a huge difference to the quality of life to the city of Arlington.

She has my full support, admiration and endorsement for mayor of Arlington , and I am very proud to call her friend.

■■WASHINGTON

Top two primary unfair to GOP I have commented before about the stranglehold left wing Democrats have on the politics and politicians in the state of Washington and especially Western Washington. A major reason for this is the “top two” primary system that was foisted upon us some years ago by the Democratic majority in Washington. The end result is that we end up with a choice between a liberal Democrat and a more liberal Democrat for most political races in the general elections.

Any voter who is an independent or a Republican is for all practical purposes disenfranchised when it comes to voting in the general elections. Any candidate who is not a Democrat has the deck stacked against him or her which is why most Democratic candidates have little or no real challengers in local elections.

Now we see our state Supreme Court, which is owned and operated by the labor unions and teachers union (which is why the state Supreme Court recently ruled against charter schools that were approved by the

electorate recently), and the vested interest groups that want a state income tax. The Supreme Court has stepped way beyond their scope of responsibility to make laws instead of interpreting laws in their recent rulings regarding funding for education.

Their rulings are a blatant attempt to force us into a state income tax to allegedly fund education (even though the people of Washington have voted against a state income tax numerous times.) It is my understanding that there is a movement to recall all of the Supreme Court justices. Count me in!

The amazing thing to me about all of this is that the people in this region (and the local media) seem to be OK with all of this. As long as this is true, we will continue to elect people like the loons who run Seattle and the tax-and-spend politicians who run this state

■■PROVIDENCE

Hospice blessings benefit so many I could not agree more with your Monday editorial, “Hospice growth a true gift.”

We experienced that firsthand in August when my wife spent her final days at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett, and her last two days in in-patient hospice care. The kind folks who came around us answered our questions in full and we agreed that my dear wife and kids, grandkids and spouses would benefit from hospice care.

Oh, what a gift.

The hospice blessings were many and included some unexpected ones. My wife was allowed to stay in her regular hospital room in the beautiful D Wing. Our young grandchildren were offered grief counseling in regard to their beloved grandmother’s passing. Funeral options and providers were explained to us, including the economics of our decision, which enabled us to find arrangements at reasonable cost and of a type in keeping with my wife’s wishes.

Health insurance picked up the bulk of our hospice care.

We stayed with the same caring and professional hospital staff, who were also hospice-trained. They stood by us, preserved our privacy, wept with us, put up with our many and sometimes noisy family members, and helped us accompany our beloved to her last breath with dignity, love and compassion. They treated my wife as I imagine

■■NIKKI HALEY

Union stance unsupportable In his Sunday column, “Nikki Haley may be the cure to what ails the GOP,” Dana Milbank points to the governor of South Carolina as a viable vice presidential candidate on next year’s Republican ticket. Among other accomplishments, Milbank lauds Gov. Haley for her leadership in the effort to remove the Confederate flag from the state capitol grounds. In a deeply red state, her stance on the flag issue, was one that took great political courage and one that earned the governor respect from many, including this writer, who informed her so, by way of e-mail.

While Nikki Haley has, no doubt, shown a positive side in her public career, let’s not forget that this is the same governor who promised boldly, to keep the unions out of Boeing in her state. While corporate profits are soaring and working families are trying to get by on stagnant and even falling (in real terms) wages, this is not the time to be considering an avowed union buster for a job that’s just a heartbeat away from the Oval Office.

Cheney’s Iran objections a bit too familiar

E

arly signs indicate Dick Cheney is leaning against the Iran nuclear deal.

“It is madness,” the former vice president announced Tuesday.

“The results may be catastrophic,” he inveighed.

“This deal gives Tehran the means to launch a nuclear attack on the U.S. homeland.”

The deal DANA MILBANK “strengthens our adversaries, threatens our allies and puts our own security at risk.”

Cheney hyperbolized, hyperventilated and gave rein to hyperactive imagination — “desperation ... cave ... neutered” — and the audience at the normally sedate American Enterprise Institute was riled. When Michaela Anang, a student from Boston with the liberal group Code Pink attempted to heckle the “war criminal” Cheney, Marc Thiessen, the moderator (and online columnist for The Washington Post), leaped up to block her, audience members shouted “get out of here!” at her, and one man, in jacket and tie, engaged her in a violent tug of war to confiscate her banner.

Supporters of the Iran deal are probably saying the same to Cheney. They are probably more grateful still that applauding Cheney from the front row were Paul Wolfowitz, a principal architect of the Iraq war, and Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, author of the Senate Republicans’ letter to the ayatollahs attempting to kill the deal during negotiations.

Surely, those who would like to see Congress undo the nuclear agreement can’t expect that rolling out Cheney is going to save the cause. When it comes to dire predictions based on scary intelligence, the former vice president wouldn’t seem to have the best track record.

Moments after Cheney’s speech came reports that the number of Senate Democrats supporting the Iran deal had climbed to 41 — more than enough to sustain a presidential veto of any congressional disapproval of the deal. This came despite an all-out campaign by the once-feared American Israel Public Affairs Committee and its affiliates, which spent tens of millions of dollars to rally opposition. The deal’s survival also suggests Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s extraordinary meddling in American politics backfired.

And now comes Cheney — angrily questioning “the veracity of the president’s claims” about the deal and labeling several Obama assertions “simply false.”

A lecture on veracity and falsehood from the man who asserted before the Iraq invasion that Saddam Hussein had reconstituted nuclear weapons? The man who said hitting Iraq would strike “a major blow right” at the base of the 9/11 terrorists? The man who claimed that Iraq had “long-established ties with al-Qaida” and that it was “pretty well confirmed” that 9/11 mastermind Mohamed Atta met with senior Iraqi intelligence officials?

Most everybody has come to acknowledge that, given the absence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, the United States should not have gone to war in 2003. But not Cheney.

He unabashedly made allegations against Iran on Tuesday that he once made against Iraq, citing evidence of “an agreement between the Iranian government and al-Qaida.” Echoing the old warnings about Iraq’s “mushroom cloud,” he noted that a nuclear Iran could kill 6 million Jews in a day. He acknowledged that intelligence failed to predict the North Korea nuclear test when he was in office — but only to argue that there should be “serious concern” about Obama’s claim that it would take Iran a year to produce nuclear weapons.

There should be concern about Obama’s claims — but there should be even more about Cheney’s. He said that the deal “threatens the security of Europe” without acknowledging that European powers negotiated it. Dropping his longstanding quest to expand executive power, he said Congress should have seized the authority to ratify the deal.

Cheney said it’s a “false choice” to claim the alternative to the deal is war. But he went on to say that unless Iran makes greater concessions, “they must understand that the United States stands ready to take military action ... Iran will not be convinced to abandon its program peacefully unless it knows it will face military action if it refuses to do so.”

And this isn’t war? In the immortal words of George W. Bush: “You can’t get fooled again.”

No charges in police killing of immigrant

By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

PASCO — Three police officers who fatally shot a rock-throwing Mexican immigrant in February will not face criminal charges, a prosecutor announced Wednesday, saying there was no evidence the officers acted with malice.

The death of Antonio Zambrano-Montes, 35, was captured on cellphone video and sparked months of protests in Pasco, an agricultural center in eastern Washington. Witnesses said Zambrano-Montes fought with an officer, threw rocks and repeatedly told officers to kill him before they opened fire.

At a news conference repeatedly interrupted by protesters Wednesday, Franklin County Prosecutor Shawn Sant said the evidence showed that the officers used legal force as they tried to arrest a man who had assaulted them and was threatening to attack them further.

Sant said he could not meet the high bar for criminal prosecution under Washington state law, which requires a showing that the officers acted with malice

ANDREW JANSEN / TRI-CITY HERALD

Pasco police officers investigate the scene of the shooting by police of Antonio Zambrano-Montes on Feb. 10.

and without good faith that their actions were justified.

“The officers used legal force to prevent injuries to themselves and others,” the prosecutor said.

“Certainly there is no evidence of malice.”

The shooting occurred Feb. 10 in a busy intersection, as Zambrano-Montes, high on meth, threw rocks at police. They tried unsuccessfully to subdue him

with a stun gun, then, after he threw a rock at an officer’s head, Officer Adam Wright shot, striking him in the arm, Sant said. The three officers then chased him across a street.

Video of the shooting showed the officers following ZambranoMontes, then firing a second volley of shots as he turned to face them. Wright told investigators the man was transferring

a rock from his left hand to his right, apparently preparing to throw again. At least one video shows movements consistent with that description, and investigators said a rock weighing nearly 3 pounds was found by Zambrano-Montes’ body.

The shooting helped fuel a national debate over police use of force following several high-profile killings by police.

Protesters expressed outrage that the officers had fired 17 times in an effort to stop a man who was armed only with a rock, and who appeared to be suicidal and under the influence of drugs.

The Pasco Police Department said Wednesday it has nearly completed an internal review of the shooting, which prompted it to increase crisis-intervention training for its officers, launch efforts to recruit more Spanishspeaking officers and improve its communication with the local Hispanic community.

Zambrano-Montes was an out-of-work orchard worker who was in the country illegally and who had had several run-ins with police. In one case, he cut his forehead with a knife and asked

officers to kill him. In another, just weeks before his death, Wright — the same officer who shot him — dragged him away from a fire at his small rental home.

Gov. Jay Inslee immediately asked Attorney General Bob Ferguson to review the charging decision, saying he would have wanted the decision reviewed whichever way it went.

George Trejo Jr., a lawyer for Zambrano-Montes’ wife and children, this month filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the city and the three officers.

“His claim that there is insufficient evidence to establish any crime beyond a reasonable doubt is a pretext for his decision to protect law enforcement from the very beginning of this case,” Trejo wrote in an email. “We are not surprised by this decision but disgusted and disappointed. This is precisely the reason why we continually asked for an independent criminal investigation.”

One of the officers, Ryan Flanagan, has resigned to take another job in a move his lawyer said was unrelated to the shooting. The other two, Wright and Adrian Alaniz, remain on paid leave.

Seattle teachers go on strike on 1st day of school

By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — Thousands of Seattle teachers marched on picket lines Wednesday, striking for the first time in three decades amid increasing complaints that their salaries have not kept up with the city’s booming tech economy.

The walkout, which began on what was supposed to be the first day of school, comes as teachers in Seattle have gone six years without a cost-of-living increase, and many say they are scrambling to afford housing in a city where living expenses are rapidly increasing.

The strike adds to other education crises in Washington.

Lawmakers are facing increasing pressure to boost funding for K-12 education after the state Supreme Court said they failed to adequately pay for schooling for 1 million children.

Justices are fining the state $100,000 a day until it comes up with a fix. The court has also ruled that the state’s charter schools are unconstitutional.

Seattle Public Schools spokeswoman Stacy Howard said Wednesday they’re still at an impasse and there will be no school Thursday for the district’s 53,000 students.

They plan to be back at the negotiation table on Thursday morning, she said.

Both sides were far apart on pay raises, teacher evaluations

and the length of the school day.

“It’s really the younger generation that is having issues with having a place to live in the city,” said teacher Janine Magidman, who was walking the picket line at Roosevelt High School. “The cost of living is just ridiculous.”

Teacher salaries range from about $44,000 to more than $86,000 for more experienced educators with advanced degrees, according to the district.

Seattle Public Schools has offered a pay increase of nearly 9 percent over three years, and the union countered with a 10.5 percent increase over two years. Phyllis Campano, the union’s vice president, said the district came back with a proposal that the union “couldn’t take seriously.”

The strike could be a test case for educators across the country, a national union leader said.

The teachers are fighting for reasonable testing policies, a fair discipline policy and the time to prepare for class each day, said Lily Eskelsen Garcia, president of the National Education Association.

“These are issues that every educator in the country is grappling with right now,” she said.

“If they can get some traction and are taken seriously as professionals, it will give hope to the rest of the 3 million other educators in the country.”

Teachers at West Seattle Elementary School walk a picket line Wednesday morning after last-minute negotiations over wages and other issues failed to avert a strike in the state’s largest school district.

in eastern Washington have voted not to return to the classroom despite a court order to end the walkout in a dispute over pay and curriculum in the 17,000-student district.

Rich Wood, a spokesman for the Washington Education Association, said the strikes were mainly about local issues not tied to the larger state debate about education funding.

The strikes are happening as critics accuse state lawmakers of failing the education system.

Although they have allocated billions of dollars toward public schools, critics say that’s not enough to meet the requirement in the state Constitution that education be the Legislature’s “paramount duty.”

Charter school panel prepares to close 4 dead in

By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — The state commission overseeing Washington’s fledgling charter schools began shutting itself down Wednesday in response to a Supreme Court ruling that the schools are unconstitutional.

In a telephone conference call, the Washington State Charter School Commission directed the executive director, Joshua Halsey, to begin the wind down process for the commission, and also passed a motion to have him work with the Attorney General to explore legal remedies that could give charter schools more breathing room. The commission also directed Halsey to develop an official position on the court ruling that it can adopt and use in its efforts.

Steve Sundquist, the commission’s chairman, said that he was “deeply disappointed” by the court ruling.

“We’re very supportive of the families affected, the schools

affected,” he said during the call.

“And that’s where we find ourselves, in a very tough spot.”

The move by the board comes a day after the chief executive of the charter schools association, a separate advocacy group for the schools, said that all nine current schools have committed to remaining open for the year, even if that means relying on private donations. The state had been expected to spend about $14 million a year to operate the schools, which are in Spokane, Tacoma, Kent, Highline and Seattle.

In a 6-3 ruling issued late Friday afternoon, the high court said that the privately operated, publicly funded charter schools that were created under a voter-approved initiative do not qualify as common schools under Washington’s Constitution and thus cannot receive public funding.

The decision, which came nearly a year after oral arguments in the case and just after eight new charter schools

opened, did not specify what will happen to the schools or the students who attend them.

Instead, the justices sent the case back to King County Superior Court “for an appropriate order.”

The high court’s opinion takes effect later this month, barring any reconsideration by the court.

The charter schools association has said it would ask the court to reconsider its ruling and, failing that, lobby Gov. Jay Inslee to call a special session of the Legislature.

David Postman, a spokesman for Inslee, said Wednesday that the governor had no comment on the charter school issue.

Initiative 1240 passed with 50.7 percent of the vote in 2012, making Washington the 42nd state to approve charter schools.

The measure provided for the opening of as many as 40 charter schools within five years. The first opened last fall. This school year, eight more have opened, with classes beginning over the past few weeks.

The state teachers union and the League of Women Voters were among the groups that challenged the law. They argued charter schools were siphoning money that would otherwise go to traditional public schools.

Washington is facing sanctions from the Supreme Court, in a separate case known as the McCleary lawsuit, for failing to adequately pay for those schools, which serve 1 million schoolchildren.

In her majority opinion, Chief Justice Barbara Madsen cited precedent from 1909 in ruling that charter schools are not common schools because they are controlled by a charter school board — not by local voters. She further rebuffed an argument from the state that the charter schools could be paid for from the general fund rather than money specifically intended for public schools, because the state doesn’t segregate the funds and thus doesn’t have a way to ensure restricted money isn’t spent on charter schools.

Manson Associated Press

MANSON — Officials now say four people have been found dead in this Chelan County town.

KPQ-AM radio in Wenatchee reported that Benito Sedano Sr. had been due to appear in court for a change of plea hearing Wednesday in a kidnapping case from last year.

Instead, Chelan County Prosecutor Doug Shae said Sedano was found dead overnight, along with a woman.

Two other people were found shot to death Tuesday in the Manson area on the north shore of Lake Chelan. Investigators executing a search warrant found Sedano and the woman.

Sedano was being prosecuted in the kidnapping and robbery of Ignacio Ramirez and Jesus Blanco Delgado in December.

Ramirez’s body was later found but Sedano had not been charged in the homicide.

Time running out to make impression

2015 SEATTLE SEAHAWKS SEASON PREVIEW, PART II

SEAHAWKS’ IDENTITY New-look ‘Legion of Boom’ has tall task to equal those that came before it

By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

Silvertips’ staff will likely use this weekend’s preseason tournament to make final roster decisions.

For four years it’s been the source of the Seattle Seahawks’ identity.

The Legion of Boom. The most intimidating secondary in the NFL. Big, strong, lengthy, hard hitting. It’s the unit that provided the swagger which propelled the Seahawks to each of the past two Super Bowls.

But will the 2015 version of the Legion of Boom be equal to the ones that came before?

That’s the $64 question as the Seahawks head into the regular season. A combination of injuries, holdouts and defections meant Seattle’s vaunted secondary was nowhere to be found during the preseason. Will they be able to bring it back around now that the games count for real?

“We’re still the same team,” All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman said. “We’ve been playing 11-man football and we’ll continue to play 11-man football. I guess we can show you better than I can tell you.”

Seattle’s defense led the NFL in both fewest points allowed and fewest yards allowed each of the past two seasons, becoming just the fourth team in league history to accomplish that feat. The secondary played a massive role in that stinginess.

However, that secondary has yet to be seen. Cornerback Byron Maxwell signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia Eagles and is gone for good, while nickel back Jeremy Lane is on the physically-unable-to-perform list with arm and knee injuries sustained during the Super Bowl.

That still leaves the three core members of the Legion of Boom, Pro Bowlers Sherman, Earl Thomas and Kam Chancellor.

However, even they were absent

By Jesse Geleynse Herald Writer

The Everett Silvertips drew a pair of early starts Thursday and Friday at the Tri-City Americans preseason tournament in Kennewick.

The puck drops at 11 a.m.

Thursday at the Toyota Center, where the Silvertips play Prince George. On Friday, Everett faces Portland at 11 a.m.

The Silvertips (3-0 in the preseason) are coming off an undefeated showing at last weekend’s Holiday Inn Classic at Xfinity Arena in Everett. The two wins included one-goal victories over Victoria and Portland, and a decisive 4-0 win over Spokane.

Everett will be without four players who played in last weekend’s preseason games as defensemen Noah Juulsen and Kevin Davis, forward Carson Stadnyk and goaltender Austin Lotz will be at NHL Kevin training camps. All Constantine the other teams are in the same situation, however, and Everett head coach Kevin Constantine said that means the competition level will be comparable to the Holiday Inn Classic.

“It just means you’re learning a lot about guys in roles they might have to fill at some point this season,” Constantine said.

This also serves as the final weekend for players to make a lasting impression on the coaching staff.

“After this weekend, you really want to use the next two exhibition games as season prep,” Constantine said. “You don’t necessarily want to use it as a tryout. In some ways this is the last tryout weekend and guys have to make an impression.”

There are still 29 players in camp, and the roster must be pared to 23 by the first regularseason game on Sept. 25.

Bigger, stronger, faster Lake Stevens senior linebacker Sam Burke is back from injury and better than ever

By David Krueger Herald Writer

L

AKE STEVENS — Sam Burke still isn’t completely sure what happened.

It’s been almost a year since the Lake Stevens senior linebacker broke his tibia and fibula in the Vikings’ 43-40 loss to Newport in the first round of the 4A state tournament last season.

One thing Burke is certain of, however, is that he wasn’t going to let his injury slow him down.

Burke returned to the Vikings bigger, stronger and faster than he was before his injury. The linebacker and running back’s work ethic is so high that the Lake Stevens coaching staff, which normally selects two additional captains after the

players select two, chose Burke as one of the Vikings’ top leaders in a pretty competitive and strong group of seniors.

“Mentally, it’s just tough,” said Lake Stevens head coach Tom Tri. “You break both your tibia and fibula, your junior year is over and now you’ve got nothing but down time. That can be tough on a kid, realizing how much of an uphill battle it is: months of rehab, months of physical therapy.

“Sam made up his mind that he was going to come back bigger and stronger and faster and that’s really what he’s done, just through hard work in the offseason, and just being determined that this is what he’s going to do his senior year.”

Unlike Burke, Tri remembers more about the play that saw

one of his defensive leaders go down. There was just a few seconds remaining in the second quarter of the Vikings’ playoff game. It was fourth and long — “about 15 or 16 yards” — and Newport running back Paul Wells got the ball and ran to the outside. A Lake Stevens lineman fell down, forcing Burke and a teammate to change their angles. Burke reacted before his teammate and the pair collided.

Burke had to be taken off the field on a stretcher and left the stadium in an ambulance. The Vikings, meanwhile, returned to the field after a 20-minute delay for the PAT attempt, and then headed to the locker room.

“It happened so fast it was ridiculous,” said Burke, who had never broken a bone before that game. “...I just remember looking down and going, ‘Wow. That’s really messed up. That is not supposed to look that way.’

Prizes are $10,000, $5,000, $2,500, $1,000 and $500 for first through fifth place, respectively.

The Mystery Fish Weight offers a Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 (the pickup is harder to win than it sounds; read the rules); the Average Fish Weight winner gets a $250 gift certificate at Performance Marine; and the Grand Prize Raffle awards $2,000 and $1,000 cash. Youth prizes are $300, $200, and $100.

The team competition is open to up to four members per team, and prizes are awarded according to total weight (see the web site for rules). Proceeds from the Beer Garden go to Salmon for Soldiers.

Participants in the derby are eligible for the Northwest Salmon Derby Series prize drawings, and local rivers are included in derby waters, if open to fishing under state Fish and Wildlife Department rules. For more information, go to www.everettcohoderby.com.

Last year’s derby drew just under 2,000 participants, plus 250 youth division young people with free tickets. First place went to Gary Hamlin of Marysville, with a coho of 11.9 pounds taken in deep water off Mukilteo, on

I knew right away my leg was broken.

“I wasn’t worried at all about myself. I was just really worried about my team. I wanted to win that game more than anybody. I just really wanted to be able to stay in and play in the second half and win.”

Burke was taken to the hospital and had a four-hour surgery to put a metal rod through his tibia and two screws at the top and bottom of it. He spent most of the next two weeks in bed as his teammates came to visit, check up on him and bring food.

For the next two months, Burke could move around on crutches.

The football player uses the Super Bowl in early February as the approximate point he could walk around with a cane.

However, Burke said he wasn’t 100 percent until late June, with the senior-to-be even “feeling a little pain through our spring camp in June.”

Still, he was determined to return to the football field for his final year at Lake Stevens.

“I could never say I was hesitant.

As soon as I was in the hospital I was thinking about next year as soon as I found out we lost to Newport,” Burke said. “I was bummed, but I was also inspired to come back. I know people who have come back from way worse injuries. I was lucky it wasn’t an ACL (injury) or a knee or anything.

There’s definitely times when I was low on myself for sure. But I always knew I’d play football again. I knew it’d be a lot of hard work but I knew I’d come back and I’d be better than ever.”

PICK OF THE WEEK | Edmonds Coho Derby

Colorado 7:10 p.m.

ROOT

One of the best things about the annual Edmonds Coho Derby is that the fish are usually waiting at the back door. Many of the derby entries, including, often, the $5,000 first-place coho, are caught right out in front of Edmonds, or just up the shoreline at the “shipwreck.”

Saturday’s 2015 edition of the event probably will follow the pattern, said All Star Charters owner/ skipper Gary Krein of Everett.

“Stay out toward the shipping lanes, be on the water before the sun comes up, and start at a depth of 30 to 50 feet,” Krein said. “A standard rig would be a white or spatterback green squid, 28 to 32 inches behind your flasher.”

a purple haze flasher/squid setup. Roughly 800 total fish were weighed in.

Derby chairman Mark Spada is a river coho specialist, and he said if he could enter his own derby, he would be fishing the upper Snohomish River, probably above Crabb Bar, drifting and casting a Dick Nite spoon in 50-50, green or chartreuse. Note that the Stillaguamish has been taken off the list of drought-caused river closures in Western Washington.

Anglers in both derbies should find plenty of local coho, according to Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood.

“Coho fishing has been pretty good the last few days,” Chamberlain said. “We’re past the peak of the humpy run and the silvers are moving in to take up the slack.

They’re a little smaller than usual, at 4 to 6 pounds with a few in the 10- or 11-pound range, and scattered all over the area.”

Chamberlain says a basic coho rig would be a Gibbs or Hot Spot 11-inch flasher, 28 to 36 inches of leader, and a glow green, glow white or chartreuse squid. Grand Slam Bucktails and Ace Hi flies are also popular he said. Start at a depth of 25 to 35 feet at daylight, and go a little deeper later, depending on success or lack of it up high. If you’re doing everything right and still not catching fish, Chamberlain says the most common cure is to shorten your leader.

State Fish and Wildlife catch sampling over the weekend showed good success rates. Saturday at the Port of Everett ramp showed 532 anglers with 220 coho and 265 pinks. At Olson’s Resort in Sekiu on Saturday, 165 anglers had 232 coho and 16

Nearly 1,000 anglers fished the derby last year. The first-place fish weighed 11.5 pounds and was caught by Daniel Lejnieks.

Full rules and tickets, at $30 a copy, are available at most area tackle shops and marinas. The event operates out of both the Port of Edmonds, and Bayside Marine adjacent to the Port of Everett ramp. It includes a separate kids’ division, and all entries qualify for a chance at the Salmon Derby Series boat/motor/trailer drawing.

pinks, and at Van Riper’s, also in Sekiu, 79 anglers had 119 coho.

Even beach fishermen were catching silvers. State checks at Point Wilson, near Port Townsend, showed 30 beach casters with eight coho, and at Marrowstone Island, 43 had 24 coho. Anglers working the beaches on the west side of Whidbey Island were also doing well.

Kevin John at Holiday Sports in Burlington said the Skagit cleared up from recent rains late last week and that action was good over the weekend for both pinks and early coho. Both were running a little smaller than usual, John said — the pinks at 3 or 4 pounds and the coho at 4 to 6 pounds. Fishermen working the hole at Deception Pass, however, were reporting more silvers in the 7- or 8-pound range, and headed for the Skagit.

Jigs have been the hot lure, John said, in pink or red for humpies and green or chartreuse for coho. Both can be caught on the same rig, he said, but if you’re targeting both, go with the green.

Best fishing on the Skagit has been from the spud house, below Mount Vernon, up to Gardner Road just above Burlington, and again up around the Highway 9 bridge at Sedro-Woolley.

Mike Chamberlain said humpy action on the Snohomish has been spotty, but generally good numbers on an incoming tide in the lower river. The Thomas’ Eddy area has also been producing pinks, Chamberlain said, but that far up the river the fish are starting to take on some color.

year, has been a standout player for the Vikings since he arrived. That didn’t change when he got injured, and was in the weight room doing upper-body workouts by Christmas — about a month after his injury.

As a junior, Burke ran a 4.8 40-yard dash. When Lake Stevens opened up football practices Burke was clocked at 4.7.

“He’s faster and bigger than he was last year. He’s going to be a lot of fun to watch,” Tri said. “He transferred in sophomore year and has just been such a pleasant surprise, right from the get-go.

From that point on, I think Sam’s missed maybe two or three workouts, and that includes the fact that he had to rehab a broken leg in the offseason.”

Burke and Lake Stevens are eager for another shot at Newport, which has ended the Vikings’ season each of the past two years.

“Absolutely,” Burke said. “I think about that every single night: playing Newport again.”

However, before the playoffs begin, Lake Stevens — currently ranked No. 2 in the Associated Press 4A prep football poll — has to navigate Wesco 4A and Friday’s non-conference game against top rival Marysville Pilchuck, which is ranked fifth in 3A. Aside from Newport, the Tomahawks are the only team in the state to beat Lake Stevens in each of the past two seasons.

“The fact that they’re six miles away, it’s a rivalry,” Tri said. “They were our league rivals forever and ever and if they didn’t win the league championship it was us — or Snohomish. We recognize the fact that they’ve gotten us the last two years and we’re not looking past them at all. This is all about Marysville Pilchuck.

“It’s a neighborhood rivalry. It’s a backyard brawl.”

“I’ve never once beat Marysville,” Burke added. “That’s kind of on my bucket list.”

Wednesday’s Game Mariners 6, Rangers 0

By Aaron Lommer Herald Writer

BOSTON — David Ortiz hit his 498th career home run, a three-run shot to cap a four-run third inning, and the Boston Red Sox beat AL East-leading Toronto 10-4 on Wednesday night, sending the Blue Jays to just their second series loss since late July.

Ortiz drove a 2-0 fastball from Drew Hutchison (13-4) into the bleachers in center field. It was his 32nd home run of the season, and 59th in his career against the Blue Jays, most by any opponent.

He’s looking to become the 27th player all-time with 500 homers.

“A bad count and missed a spot with Ortiz, and he hit it,” Hutchison said. “It just comes down to him not being able to execute a pitch with two outs.”The 39-year-old Ortiz is looking to become the 27th player in major league history with 500 homers.

Earlier on this homestand, Ortiz set a club record by reaching 30 homers in a season for the ninth time with Boston. Hall of Famer Ted Williams owned the previous mark with eight.

Red Sox third baseman Pablo Sandoval left the game before the sixth inning with midback tightness.

Mariners blank Rangers

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — The winless drought ended Wednesday night for lefty swingman Vidal Nuno. And it ended in a dominant performance.

Nuno limited Texas to one hit over seven shutout innings before the Mariners closed out a 6-0 victory at Safeco Field — and then tried to share as much credit as he could.

“Everyone contributed,” Nuno insisted. “We set the tone early. We got on the board in the first inning, and we just went on from there.

“Steven (rookie catcher Steven Baron in his major-league debut) called a great game for me. We were connecting on every pitch and didn’t make any mistakes today.”

OK ... yes, the Mariners backed Nuno with a nine-hit attack that included big contributions from Kyle Seager and Mark Trumbo. Both had four hits, including a two-run homer.

But this night belonged to Nuno, who entered the game at 0-11 over his last 44 appearances — including 0-10 in 20

starts. His last victory was June 27, 2014 against Boston while pitching for the New York Yankees.

The drought covered all 17 of Nuno’s appearances (14 starts) at Arizona and his previous 26 outings (five starts) after coming to the Mariners in a June 3 trade.

“The pace of play when he pitches is exceptional,” said Trumbo, who arrived with Nuno in a June 3 trade with Arizona. “You love playing defense behind him. He throws strikes, and you have some really quick games.”

Not in the beginning. Nuno (1-2) was at 47 pitches through two innings, but he needed hist 59 pitches over the next five innings. He finished with a career-high 10 strikeouts while walking two and permitting just one hit.

“I was telling Trent (Jewett, the bench coach) that we’ve got to find out who’s going to pitch the sixth,” manager Lloyd McClendon said, “because he’s not going to last.

“You look up in the seventh, and he’s still going strong.”

That one hit was clean: Prince Fielder lined a two-out single into center in the first

Silvertips From Page C1

Constantine said the coaching staff was able to “touch on 75 percent of what we want to put in place” prior to last weekend’s classic.

“It doesn’t mean that 75 percent is being executed the way we need to once we get repetitions, but we at least had talked about 75 percent of the details of how we wanted to play,” Constantine said. “We’re up around 95 percent now. So now we just continue to try to get repetitions of we want to do well when those situations arise.”

Yan Khomenko led the Silvertips offense last weekend. He scored three goals and had two assists. Tristen Pfeifer added three assists in Everett’s victory over Portland on Sunday.

Prince George (0-2) was scheduled to

inning. Nuno set down the last 14 batters he faced.

“Seemed like he had all his pitches in play,” Texas manager Jeff Banister said. “He really utilized his secondary stuff. We knew that is where he would go and it looked like he had terrific movement.”

Danny Farquhar and Carson Smith completed the one-hit shutout.

Nuno attributed much of his success to tweak in his delivery, which he believes turned his changeup into a much more effective pitch.

“They didn’t see that on film,” he said. “It worked out. Everything clicked today.”

Although James Paxton is tentatively scheduled to rejoin the rotation Sunday, McClendon acknowledged it will be tough to send Nuno back to the bullpen as a long reliever as Wednesday’s performance.

“He is so valuable to this ballclub because of his ability to swing back and forth,” McClendon said. “To come out and do what he did tonight, you don’t expect him to be too sharp…

“I highly doubt he’ll come out of the rotation right now.”

play Portland (2-1) Wednesday night in Kennewick. The Cougars have five players who have scored once during the preseason.

Portland (2-1), which fell 4-3 to Everett on Sunday, is led offensively by Alex Overhardt (three goals) and Dominic Turgeon (two goals).

Notes The Silvertips announced Wednesday that they have signed 17-year-old forward Devon Skoleski to a Western Hockey League standard player agreement. Skoleski scored 25 goals and had 31 assists in 44 games last season for the Eastman Selects of the Manitoba Midget Hockey League. Skoleski was a free-agent invite to camp. … Everett also announced that it has released defenseman Tyler Fraser and left wing Nik Malencia. … Montana Onyebuchi, Everett’s third-round pick in this year’s WHL Bantam Draft has been assigned to the Eastman Selects for his 15-year-old season.

The News Tribune SEATTLE —Outfielders Nelson Cruz and Franklin Gutierrez remained absent from the Seattle Mariners’ lineup because of lingering ailments. If healthy, both would have started Wednesday against Texas lefty Martin Perez.

Cruz appears further along and, at one point, appeared likely to start Wednesday as the designated hitter. But he remains slowed by a strained right quadriceps muscle suffered Sept. 2 at Houston.

Gutierrez left last Friday’s game at Oakland because of a recurrence of his chronic joint issues.

Edmonds-Woodway senior Madison Schultz will not play soccer for the Warriors this season. She informed the team of her decision a few weeks prior to the start of the season.

Schultz, who has committed to play soccer at the University of North Carolina, one of the most prestigious women's soccer programs in the country if not the world, is focusing on graduating from high school early so that she Madison Schultz can enroll in second semester classes at UNC and start working out with the team.

Schultz's decision is similar to the one Lake Stevens quarterback Jacob Eason made. Eason, who is one of the highest ranked college recruits in the country, will play football for the Vikings this season, but won't play basketball or baseball as he has in previous years of high school. Instead, Eason will graduate from Lake Stevens in January and enroll at the University of Georgia. Eason announced his commitment to play football at the University of Georgia in 2014.

Schultz is just as decorated as Eason. She has represented her country on the soccer field and helped the Warriors win the 3A state championship as a junior last season.

Edmonds-Woodway head coach Bill LeCompte said he is excited for Schultz and supports her as she does what is best for her future.

"She loved her time playing for her friends and with her friends," LeCompte said. "She's working on setting herself up for the next level and what that may bring."

Huskies look for answers in run game

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — As Washington Huskies offensive coordinator Jonathan Smith explained Wednesday afternoon, Boise State didn’t exactly stack the line of scrimmage to stop UW’s rushing attack during Friday’s season opener.

The Broncos, Smith said, were content to remain in Cover 2 — a simple coverage in which two safeties drop deep — until the Huskies forced a change.

Twenty-two rushing attempts and just 29 yards later, no defensive adjustment was necessary.

“They were going to live in Cover 2 until we proved we could run the ball,” Smith said. “Well, they were playing Cover 2, and we couldn’t run the ball.”

The responsibility for such failure, Smith said, is shared.

“We definitely need to create more of a crease for the back, but at the same time, we’re not going to be able to block everybody,” Smith said. “The back needs to be able to make some guys miss, and we’ve got some guys that can do that.”

One of them is Dwayne Washington, the fourth-year junior who led the team in 2014 with 697 yards rushing and nine touchdowns — five of which came on runs of 51 yards or more.

He entered the season as the team’s No. 1 tailback but finished the Boise State game with just eight carries for 14 yards with a long of five yards (though he led the team in receiving with seven catches for 53 yards).

It wasn’t just him: UW’s other runners — Myles Gaskin, Lavon Coleman and receiver Chico McClatcher — the Federal Way grad who had two carries — combined to net just nine yards on eight attempts.

“It was kind of a disappointment, but you’ve just got to move on,” Washington said after Wednesday’s practice. “As a running back group, after watching the film, we’ve just got to be patient, be more explosive and just play football. At the end of the day, all you can do is just play football and know your assignment as an individual.”

Washington said he’s striving to build off his strong finish to the 2014 season and become the Huskies’ lead back. Saturday’s 11 a.m. game against Sacramento State presents another opportunity to evolve.

“I always want to be that No. 1 guy, especially as a running back,” Washington said. “The way that this offense works, it’s a lot of rotation here and there. You’ve just got to build trust with your position coach.

You want it to where they feel like they can’t take this guy out of the game. That’s what I’m working toward.”

To get there, he said, he needs to “just keep getting in the playbook, keep running hard, learning my assignments and just move on.”

The running game needs to improve before the Huskies can adequately stretch the field with their passing game, though Smith did say he called four or five “shot” plays that didn’t end up being thrown “for whatever reason.”

“A little bit of that was the coverage we were seeing, but we need to be able to show that we’re going to do that,” he said, also acknowledging that they should make more of those calls.

“We have the players to do it,” receiver Dante Pettis said. “We have everything lined up. We’ve just got to get a little more detailed. ... Protection will break down, or something like that, (or) we don’t see a coverage correctly.”

Still ...

“Everything’s easier when you’re running the ball, there’s no question,” Smith said. “But at the same time, you can’t just bang your head into some walls, and if that’s not being effective, you’ve got to find some other answers. That’s part of the role I’m in, is finding some other answers, and that’s what we’re trying to do. “... We’ve got to get them all together — from backs to the O-line to coaches to calls. We’ve got to get better.”

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham (13) became an instant-celebrity after making a one-handed catch for a touchdown against the Dallas Cowboys in a game in the 2014 NFL season.

Look Ma, no hands

Gloves are having a major impact on how the game is played in the NFL. According to Hall of Fame coach John Madden, “Pretty soon, these gloves are going to be able to catch a ball without a hand in them.”

By Sam Farmer Los Angeles Times

Odell Beckham Jr. was a rookie when he leaped, a superstar when he landed.

The New York Giants receiver made one of the signature plays of the 2014 NFL season with his 43-yard touchdown catch against Dallas, jumping and bending his body Matrix-style, then somehow securing the football with just three fingers.

In the aftermath of what some people called the most athletic catch in league history, Beckham acknowledged he had a small assist on the play — the red-andwhite XXL Nike Vapor Jet 3.0 gloves he was wearing. But he wasn’t the only one to give some love to the gloves.

“You have to be careful about the way you analyze that play because you don’t want people calling you a hater or whatever,” said Tim Brown, a Hall of Fame receiver. “But you can’t make that play without those kind of gloves. It’s just impossible.

“The guy’s a freak of nature, no doubt about it, I’ll give you that. He has the big hands and all that. But those gloves are so ‘tackified’ these days that that’s part of the reason you see guys making those kinds of catches.”

Said former NFL receiver Cris Collinsworth, now color analyst on NBC’s “Sunday Night Football”: “I think if they took the gloves completely away from the guys, including the quarterbacks at this point, it would have a major impact on what the game looked like on the field.

And not for the better.”

While the topic of slightly deflated footballs has sparked countless debates in recent months, the growing popularity of gloves that almost adhere to the ball has largely gone unnoticed — and unregulated.

“No one looks at those gloves,” John Madden said. “I saw them when I was at a meeting in Indy. They passed them around and somebody made the comment that, ‘Pretty soon, these gloves are going to be able to catch a ball without a hand in them.’”

Atlanta Falcons President Rich McKay, chairman of the league’s competition committee, said the group has talked extensively in recent years about whether the NFL should come up with new regulations for gloves. Although no decisions are imminent, he said, it’s a subject expected to come up again.

Various companies make the gloves — Nike, Adidas, Under Armour and Cutters among them — and the products have similar qualities, namely special surfaces (sometimes leather, sometimes rubber) on the palms, fingers and thumbs that allow a lock-down grip on the ball.

“I think it’s time to go back and look at the gloves and see if, with what’s going

The Broncos’ Peyton Manning is one of the quarterbacks in the NFL who has been known to wear a glove on his throwing hand.

on here with sports science in the past 10 years, if there isn’t too much of an advantage being gained,” McKay said.

Gloves essentially have become part of the uniform, even forming the team logo when positioning the palms together. It isn’t just receivers who are wearing gloves these days. Virtually everyone wears them, including quarterbacks.

“You know something’s up when guys like Tom Brady and Kurt Warner and Peyton Manning are wearing gloves to throw a football,” former NFL quarterback Rich Gannon said. “You’re starting to go, ‘Wait a second here.’ Guys for years dreaded bad weather, cold weather, and they didn’t want to have anything that would take their hands off the football. Now guys are like, ‘These gloves are better than the human skin.’”

But not everyone whose job depends on hanging on to the football thinks the cutting-edge gloves provide an unfair advantage.

“You don’t catch the ball with your hands, you catch it with your eyes,” Philadelphia tight end Zach Ertz said. “So to say that anybody can go out there and catch a football with a million guys running around, it’s different.”

Coby Fleener, tight end for the Indianapolis Colts, said there are pros and cons to the gloves, which he began to wear at Stanford, where he was a teammate of Ertz.

“There are some aspects where they really help you, but some aspects where they hinder you,” he said. “To be able to feel the ball when it hits your hands, it makes it more difficult when the gloves are on. I wear them as much for blocking as I do for receiving, because it gives you

that extra layer of protection.”

NFL players used to slather their hands with Stickum, a gooey adhesive that also came in a spray form, reasoning that would give them a better grip on the ball.

That substance was outlawed in 1981.

Soon after, some players — receivers, mostly — began trying different types of gloves. The styles ranged from thin leather versions not unlike the ones golfers wear, to neoprene scuba gloves, which kept hands warm but took away any feel of the football.

Quarterback Doug Flutie, who spent part of his career in Canada, used rubberized glass-cutter gloves, which were ill-fitting by today’s standards but gave him a grip in all weather conditions.

By the mid-1980s, Neumann began selling gloves with “tackified” fingers and palms that gained wide popularity. Some barehanded quarterbacks said those transferred a slight residue onto the ball that was actually beneficial.

“I remember playing catch with guys who would wear them,” Gannon said.

“The ball would come back and it would be kind of easier to throw.”

The NFL made changes to address that.

The league’s uniform code says that “adhesive or slippery substances on the body, equipment, or uniform of any player” are prohibited. Tackified gloves are allowed, though, provided “such tacky substance does not adhere to the football or otherwise cause handling problems for players.”

Although the NFL doesn’t have more specific standards for gloves, such regulations do exist and were developed by governing bodies of high school and college football. The Sports & Fitness Industry Association oversees the third-party testing of gloves to make sure the products meet but do not exceed specifications for adhesiveness and other qualities.

The difference now, Madden said, is receivers can confidently go up for a ball with one hand and inconspicuously bend the rules with the other hand.

“I’ve been watching preseason games and I see this,” he said. “When you can catch the ball with one hand, or even start to catch the ball with one hand, that frees up your other hand to push off. You can get real subtle about that.”

Collinsworth said the use of gloves has forever changed the game.

“Before these gloves, I’d never seen anybody make an overhand catch — when their fingers point toward the ground — below the waist, but now I see guys make those catches below the knees,” he said.

“They’re brilliant catches, and brilliant players, I don’t want to take anything away from them. But if you played before gloves, you had to slide or dive to make that catch. Maybe somebody could make the ball stick in their hands like that, but I had never seen it.”

NFL gets back to business: Brady vs. Roethlisberger in tonight’s opener

By Sam Farmer Los Angeles Times

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — After months of accusations, depositions, investigations and two kinds of courtrooms — federal and those of public opinion — a reminder arrives: The National Football League is also about football.

That will be on display Thursday night when the defending Super Bowl champion New England Patriots play host to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the league’s

annual kickoff opener at Gillette Stadium.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell does not plan to attend the opener, which traditionally takes place on the home field of the previous season’s Super Bowl winner.

The Patriots are simultaneously feeling vindicated and under siege, as days after a federal judge stunned the NFL by wiping out the four-game suspension of star quarterback Tom Brady, ESPN and Sports Illustrated published lengthy

investigative stories that painted coach Bill Belichick and his staff as incorrigible cheaters.

“Things are going to be written, things are going to be said, but it’s up to us as a team to ignore the noise and just focus on the Pittsburgh Steelers,” New England receiver Matthew Slater told reporters. “Simple as that.”

New England is 15-1 on its home field the past two seasons, and has won 11 of its past 12 openers.

It’s time for me to do my job,” said Brady, whose franchise will

raise its Super Bowl XLIX banner at the game. “Anything that’s happened over the last seven months really wasn’t my job.”

U.S. District Judge Richard Berman ruled last week that the NFL overreached in its punishment of Brady for his involvement in an alleged football-deflating scheme and wiped out the penalty. When Brady’s suspension was lifted, the projected point spread favoring the Patriots increased from two to seven points.

The game remains the suspension bowl, as Pittsburgh will be

without All-Pro running back Le’Veon Bell and receiver Martavis Bryant, whereas running back LeGarrette Blount will be sitting for the Patriots.

The Steelers, who have made defense a cornerstone of their franchise, have slipped in that department. This off-season they swapped defensive coordinators, from the legendary Dick LeBeau to longtime linebackers coach Keith Butler. The plan now is to take advantage of the youth and speed Pittsburgh has on that side of the ball.

Seattle free safety Dion Bailey (37) tackles San Diego Chargers running back Melvin Gordon in the first half of a preseason game on Aug. 29 in San Diego.

Key performer: Dion Bailey Bailey has the unenviable task of replacing three-time Pro Bowl strong safety Kam Chancellor , who is in the midst of a contentious holdout.

The hard-hitting Chancellor is the player who puts the boom in the Legion of Boom.

Bailey, who was recruited to USC by Seahawks coach Pete

Carroll, has little pedigree to fall back upon — he was an undrafted rookie free agent last season who was part of Seattle’s practice squad, and he has yet to suit up in a regular-season NFL game. But Carroll is quick to describe Bailey as a defensive playmaker.

Seahawks: Carroll excited about both Williams and Bailey From Page C1

during the preseason. Thomas, Seattle’s bulldog of a free safety, didn’t play a single snap as he recovered from offseason shoulder surgery. Sherman, who locks down the left side of the defense at corner, played sparingly in one game as he nursed a hip-flexor injury.

Then there’s Chancellor. The physical intimidator of Seattle’s secondary is in the midst of a contentious holdout that reached 42 days Thursday — far longer than anyone imagined when he failed to show up for the first day of training camp. Seattle coach Pete Carroll said Wednesday that Chancellor will not play in Sunday’s opener at St. Louis, even if he returns later this week, so no matter what Seattle’s secondary will look different.

“Everybody’s disappointed,” Sherman said about Chancellor’s holdout.

“You expect to have him, but we have to go with the guys we have.”

Two of those guys are as good as it gets. Between them Thomas and Sherman have been to six Pro Bowls, and both were named first-team All-Pro last season. While injuries limited both during the preseason, both are now practicing at full speed and should be 100 percent come Sunday. Those two provide a base any secondary would love to begin with.

But the rest of the secondary is new to the Legion of Boom. Cornerback Cary Williams traded places with Maxwell, signing as a free agent with Seattle after spending the past two seasons as a starter in Philadelphia.

He brings decent size to the position (6-foot-1, 190), but not as much as his predecessors opposite Sherman. Meanwhile Dion Bailey, an undrafted free agent who spent last season on Seattle’s practice squad, is charged with replacing Chancellor. Bailey, at 6-foot and 211 pounds, is dwarfed by the massive Chancellor (6-foot-3, 232), who forced receivers running routes over the middle to keep their heads on a swivel.

With Thomas and Sherman unavailable for most of the preseason, Seattle’s secondary had its struggles. That was particularly true in the preseason finale against Oakland as Raiders third-string quarterback Matt McGloin moved the ball effectively through the air.

However, Carroll expressed full confidence in his retooled secondary.

“We’ve worked really hard with our guys,” Carroll said. “It’s great to have Earl back. Our depth at corner helps us. Dion Bailey has had a great offseason and camp. He’s been in the position with us for quite a while where we’re

He’s a playmaker and a very aggressive tackler, so we’re going to count on him to do the things he does well and hopefully fit him in with this group. “(Williams) has done quite well,” Carroll added. “I think he’s great, he’s totally ready to go for the season. He had a good preseason, we worked him a lot, we used our best guys as much as we could and we tested him in every way. He’s consistent and confident and he’s a big guy out there who knows how to play the way we want to play, putting hands on guys and all that. I’m really excited to see how he does.”

What it may come down to for Seattle is this: Do the players make the Legion of Boom, or does the Legion of Boom make the players?

“What a lot of people don’t understand about this secondary is that it’s not about the personnel, it’s about the attitude and the philosophy,” Bailey said. “The LOB has no numbers attached to it, it’s just a philosophy and a way of thinking. You go out there and you play fast and physical, no matter who’s out there. (Brandon) Browner was out there and he’s a Pro Bowler, he was gone. Maxwell came out there and what did Maxwell do? I plan to just keep up the standard they upheld since they came into this organization.”

And that’s what Seattle’s defense is banking on.

RENTON — Three truths have emerged about Kam Chancellor’s holdout.

1. Pete Carroll’s tone has definitely changed, 41 days in. The coach sure doesn’t see Chancellor as an “awesome Seahawk” right now, as he did when this saga began July 31.

2. Things are moving on the impasse for the first time in a month. Chancellor came out of his dug-in silence Wednesday to paint the differences with the only NFL team he’s ever known to NFL Network as “petty.” It was more than coincidental Chancellor broke his silence a couple hours after Carroll said how disappointed — “very much so” — he and the Seahawks were in their team leader’s absence.

3. His fill-in as starting strong safety is mighty confident about his pro debut Sunday, Seattle’s opener at St. Louis.

Carroll struck first on Wednesday with a tone that was noticeably perturbed before the first full practice of 2015’s initial game week.

The coach barely hid his disdain for this ordeal even existing into August, let alone September.

“He’s not here, and he’s not playing,” Carroll said, sounding as flat as a billiards table.

“He’s not here right now, so he’s not playing. That’s it.

Today’s Wednesday.”

If Chancellor doesn’t report to the team before Sunday’s game, he will lose one game check. That’s $267,647 — 1/17th of his $4.55 million salary for 2015.

Wednesday night NFL Network reported Chancellor said this difference between his stance and the Seahawks’ is small.

“I exchanged messages with Kam Chancellor earlier today. He told he feels this whole thing could be over by now,” NFL Network anchor Dan Hellie reported. “Kam said he’s been willing to meet the Seahawks halfway; he said the two sides (are) less than $1 million apart at this point. He actually used the term ‘petty.’

“So in a nutshell, he told me that he’s not asking for more money. He wants the money to be moved from the 2017 season to next year with no additional money this season.”

There’s two sides to that point alone.

There are times between games he can barely walk yet still plays, and he played his last game, Super Bowl XLIX in February, with a torn medial collateral ligament in his knee.

Chancellor likely isn’t sure his older-than-27-yearsold body will be able to play the three seasons that are remaining on the $28 million extension he signed before the 2013 season. He was the first of the Seahawks’ core players to get an extension.

Conversely, that’s the same reason the Seahawks didn’t guarantee him any years beyond this one at $4.55 million ($4.45 million of which is guaranteed). He is under contract for 2016 at a non-guaranteed $5.1 million and a non-guaranteed $6.8 million in ’17, and now tells NFL Network he wants more like $9 million in ’16 and 2017 might as well be 2047 to him right now.

Yet the Seahawks don’t want to set the precedent of re-doing in any way a contract that has two seasons beyond this one remaining on it. General manager John Schneider knows if he does that for Chancellor, a conga line of veterans could justifiably line up outside the GM’s door wanting the same,

early cash. The first in line would be defensive end Michael Bennett. He isn’t happy his deal is no longer among the league’s richest at his position, either, yet he’s with the team practicing and playing.

“I said, ‘Kam, what about re-doing a contract that still has three years left?’”

Hellie relayed on NFL Network Wednesday. “He told me he doesn’t want to wait until he’s almost 30.”

That’s the crux of this: Chancellor wants to earn all he can now and perhaps next year before he may not want — or be able — to play Kam anymore.

Chancellor Carroll was asked if the thumping strong safety and team leader decided to show up, say, Thursday, or as the bus to the airport is leaving for the team’s trip to St. Louis on Friday, or if Chancellor showed up next Monday, is there a too-late day for him to play in a game that week?

“I don’t know,” Carroll said, his tone still stern. “This is Wednesday.

We’ll see what happens next. If this is Wednesday, I’m probably going to be speaking the same way next week.”

“Yeah, I am disappointed in this. Very much so. I think everybody should be, because he’s been such a great part of this team. It’s unfortunate that it’s come to this and he’s not here.”

Contrast that stern tone with this, what Carroll said about Chancellor on day one of his holdout, when training camp began July 31: “Kam Chancellor is an amazing Seahawk, part of this team. We love him in every way,” Carroll said then. “He stands for exactly what we want about this game, being a Seahawk, playing for us. And we want to make something happen. We’re going to try to figure it out as we go through it.”

On July 31 Carroll said that one day of Chancellor’s holdout was not disruptive.

It’s beyond disruptive to Carroll and the Seahawks now, four days before the real games begin.

“Dion Bailey ... we are going to count on him to do the things that he does well (in Chancellor’s starting position),” Carroll said Wednesday.

“We are moving. We are ready to go.”

This time last year Bailey was an undrafted fourthyear junior linebacker out of USC, injured and on his way to an entire season on Seattle’s practice squad.

Now he’s going to be starting in the middle of what has been the league’s top-ranked defense the last two seasons, filling in for a three-time Pro Bowl strong safety.

He’s not exactly daunted.

Asked what he would do on Sunday if he were the Rams and quarterback Nick Foles, Bailey smiled.

“I hope they plan to come at me. I mean, it would make my coming-out party a lot more exciting,” he said, beaming like the square diamond in the lobe of his right ear.

“The more opportunities to make plays, the more play I’ll make.

“So if they plan to come at me, I hope they are just ready for the possibilities of that plan.”

RB Turbin released Seattle released Robert Turbin after reaching an injury settlement with the backup running back. Turbin was expected to be out at least five weeks with a high-ankle sprain and was placed on injured reserve over the weekend.

Turbin is now a free agent.

Federer, Wawrinka set up all-Swiss semifinal

By Howard Fendrich Associated Press

NEW YORK — Roger Federer is back in the semifinals of the U.S. Open for the 10th time. To get back to his first final at Flushing Meadows in six years, he’ll have to beat someone he knows quite well: Swiss Olympic and Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka.

The No. 2-seeded Federer and No. 5 Wawrinka both won quarterfinals about as handily as can be Wednesday night.

Federer never faced a break point, compiled a remarkable 50-8 advantage in winners, and needed less than 11⁄2 hours to dismiss 12th-seeded Richard Gasquet of France 6-3, 6-3, 6-1 in Arthur Ashe Stadium.

“No doubt about it: I think I played a very good match,” Federer said. “I felt the ball great.”

BASEBALL

He won five consecutive titles at the U.S. Open from 2004-08, then lost in the 2009 final — and hasn’t been that far again since.

Forced to play in Louis Armstrong Stadium because of two lengthy women’s quarterfinals plus a 11⁄2-hour rain delay earlier, Wawrinka eliminated 15th-seeded Kevin Anderson of South Africa 6-4, 6-4, 6-0. The match took 1 hour, 47 minutes in all, but the third set, in particular, was about as lopsided as possible: Wawrinka won 24 of the 29 points.

Wawrinka solved the 6-foot-8 Anderson’s serve, converting 5 of 8 break points. Anderson had been broken a total of four times through his first four matches combined.

“For sure,” Wawrinka said, “the best match of the tournament for me.”

Most of his career, Wawrinka

U.S. Open glance A look at Wednesday’s play at the $42.3 million U.S. Open tennis championships: Men’s quarterfinals: No. 2 Roger Federer beat No. 12 Richard Gasquet in the night session in three sets, and No. 5 Stan Wawrinka topped No. 15 Kevin Anderson in straight sets.

Women’s quarterfinals: No. 5 Simona Halep defeated Victoria Azarenka in three sets to advance to her first U.S. semifinal. No. 26 Flavia Pennetta advanced to her second U.S. Open semifinal in three years, defeating No. 5 Petra Kvitova in three sets.

Thursday: Women’s semifinals: No. 1 Serena Williams vs. Roberta Vinci, No. 2 Simona Halep vs. No. 26 Flavia Pennetta. has lived in the shadow of his older — and far more successful — countryman, Federer. While Federer owns a record 17 Grand Slam singles titles, Wawrinka didn’t break through with his first until the 2014 Australian Open.

But Wawrinka added No. 2 this year at the French Open, beating

Federer in the quarterfinals along the way.

Still, that was only Wawrinka’s third victory in 19 career matches against Federer.

Asked whether he expects a vast majority of spectators to be pulling for Federer on Friday, Wawrinka replied: “Everybody loves Roger.

He’s the best player ever.”

In Friday’s other men’s semifinal, No. 1 Novak Djokovic of Serbia will play defending champion Marin Cilic of Croatia.

Djokovic has won all 13 of their previous meetings.

The women’s semifinals are Thursday night: No. 1 Serena Williams of the United States vs. unseeded Roberta Vinci of Italy, and No. 2 Simona Halep of Romania vs. No. 26 Flavia Pennetta of Italy.

It’s the first time two Italians reached the semifinals at the same major tournament.

Halep and Pennetta advanced Wednesday by beating twotime major champions. Halep rested up and composed herself after the third-set rain break and defeated Victoria Azarenka 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, while Pennetta edged Kvitova 4-6, 6-4, 6-2.

SHADES OF LIGHT

The pattern is called Carnival Wonderland, but the handpainted drum shade has the vibe of a pastel ethnic Suzani. It’s 16 inches and $125.

Have it made in the shade Tips for choosing fun new toppers for your tired old lamps and chandeliers

By Elaine Markoutsas and Cindy Dampier Chicago Tribune

If you find yourself wishing your tired lamps and chandeliers could stay a bit more in the shadows, perhaps it’s time to replace them.

The shades, that is. Lamps are often described as the jewelry of the room — the accessory that sets your style statement. Modern lamps can put an instant, contemporary spin on more traditional furniture, glamorous lamps add a dressed-up element to casual rooms, and vintage pieces can contribute everything from industrial edge to sweet ’70s style.

But the shade is the detail that lets your lamp find its voice: It determines whether the lamp fits the space, the purpose, and the style you have in mind. Thus, a quick (and usually inexpensive) change of shade can completely transform the same old lamps into fresh style for your same old room. A few things to consider when switching shades: Get the proportions right.

Pairing the right size and shape shade with a lamp is key, and there are a few rules that help you get it right. Most importantly, hardware should be covered by the shade, which means you may need to replace the harp that the

shade stands on as well, to lower the new shade over the switch and socket. Measuring your lamp ahead of time can help you choose the size you need, (www. shadesoflight.com has a good online guide to lampshade size and measurements), but your best bet is to bring your lamp to a store and try on shades. A lighting store that sells shades can offer expertise and more options, but bringing your lamp along to a big box store isn’t out of the question, either. In the end, when you see the right look, you’ll know.

Consider size carefully. Know the space you want the lamp to go into and how much room

there is for a shade. If you’re bumping the lampshade every time you put your keys down on the hall table, the shade will end up bent, and you’ll end up annoyed. Will a larger shade fit underneath those shelves above?

Will it obstruct a view? Will the shape complement the table it sits on? All questions to consider, and worth time spent with your tape measure to be sure. Check websites for exact dimensions of the shade you’re considering buying.

Allow for light. Color and opaqueness vary greatly from shade to shade, so remember to choose yours not only for the

color you’d like to see in your room but also for the amount of light you’ll need the lamp to produce. Tole shades and some dark, lined shades allow light to be cast only vertically, while lighter shades allow for more ambient light in a room.

Try on everything. Once you’ve got your lamp in the store, be open to different shade shapes, sizes and colors. Like trying on clothes, sometimes the unexpected choice is actually the one that makes the look come together. And a perfect shade can elevate any lamp, from that splurge-worthy favorite to a garage sale find.

BERTOIA AUCTION

Ford Motor Company made the large Fordson Tractor in the early 1930s, when this 53⁄4-inch-high toy was made. It sold last year at Bertoia’s Auction in Vineland, N.J., for $185.

oys are fun to use, but they also are learning tools.

What child wouldn’t want a toy tractor that looked exactly like the big one used on the farm?

Cars, trucks, trains, airplanes and other toys can be dated by looking up the history of the adult version. A toy Fordson tractor sold at a Bertoia Auction in 2014 for $185.

It is marked with the name of the maker, Arcade.

It’s easy to find the history of this toy. Ford made tractors and trucks with the brand name Fordson from 1917 to 1964. Arcade Manufacturing Company worked from 1902, but the first farm toy it made was the Fordson Tractor in 1922. There were different versions of the tractor, one with W&K tires, and one with steel wheels. But watch out. Many reproductions have been made.

Delores figurine in my mother’s attic. It’s a woman in a rose-colored dress, with a bonnet, shawl and gloves. It’s 8 inches high. What is it worth, and what’s the best way to try to sell it?

A: Florence Ward began making figurines in her garage in Pasadena, California, before establishing the Florence Ceramics Co. in the 1940s.

She designed all the figurines and other giftware items made by the company. The company was sold to Scripto in 1964 and different products were made. That company went out of business in 1977.

The Delores figurine was made in several different colors, including moss green, pink, teal and yellow.

Your figurine’s rose-colored dress probably is what is called “pink.”

Delores in a yellow dress is rarer than the others. There has been a big drop in the price of figurines

Q: I have a set of yellowish Depression glass dishes and wonder how to research them. I have provided a rubbing of a dish to show the design. What is their value?

A: Your dishes are “Madrid” pattern, and the color is called “amber,” not “yellow.” Madrid was made by the Federal Glass Co. of Columbus, Ohio, from 1932 to 1939. Madrid was made in green, amber and crystal (clear). Blue (“Madonna” blue) and pink pieces were made for a limited time.

Beware of reproductions. In 1976, Federal reworked the molds and made amber sets called “Recollection.” There is a small “76” worked into that pattern. Recollection was See KOVEL, Page D3

What feelings make you feel like fall has arrived?

T he whole concept of “fall” is something so much more than the relative hours of daylight and darkness. Fall is a feeling, a sense of change, and there are different things that trigger that feeling in us.

For me the fall season begins when the school buses start rolling again.

It’s the time of year when the moles become active and you can drive down most any neighborhood and see their destructive evidence everywhere. It’s a cool crisp Friday evening where, if you listen carefully, you can hear the announcer at the local high school football game.

Fall is the return of my clump of Cyclamen

pink blooms of Japanese anemones.

I would be remiss not to mention my little patch of toad lilies, Tricyrtis formosana, that bear 1-inch purple spotted orchid-like flowers on arching stems.

The name Toad Lily doesn’t STEVE SMITH THE WHISTLING GARDENER really do them justice.

These are just a few things that come to my hederifolium that has been mind when I think of fall. dormant all summer and Since everyone is different, is now in full bloom. Or my I decided to ask my staff Schizostylus coccinea, a and find out what makes lovely iris relative, that has them think of fall. finally come into bloom Mary marks the beginwith gladiola-like star ning of fall by the fall colors shaped flowers in shades of of her Oxydendrum, the salmon and pink. Fall is the harvesting of her gardark gentian blue flowers den, picking the last of of Ceratostigma plumbagi- the blackberries and the noides and the white and color orange. She likes

the morning fog, spiders everywhere, Halloween decorations, apples and taking drives to see the fall colors. Fall for Mary means mildew on the roses and zucchini and rust on the hollyhocks and monster slugs. Also she gets to clean up the garden and cut back perennials, rake leaves and generally tidy up.

And finally, fall for Mary is a carpet of yellow birch leaves all over her lawn.

Chris knows fall is here when she sees dew on the lawn in the morning.

Monday Night Football and Halloween candy in the stores are sure signs summer is over and fall has arrived. Rudbeckia (Black Eyed Susan) in full bloom

and Pee Gee hydrangeas turning pink are her indicators of fall. The smell of the fresh, clean air in the morning with a hint of wood smoke in it and, of course, spiders everywhere are all indicators to Chris that it is fall.

Mary Ann notices the birds: flocks of starlings in the trees at night; crows gathering at their evening nesting grounds; bushtits returning as regular visitors to her garden; and hummingbirds getting resourceful with what they find to eat. Fall is for planting garlic and eating chanterelles. Fall means she has to move farther east in her backyard to catch the sun’s rays. The

fall colors of sweetgums and maples are early indicators that fall has arrived as are fall blooming crocus, Colchicums to be correct, Black Eyed Suzies and asters. Oh, did I mention spiders everywhere?

Fall evokes all sorts of emotions from gardeners and I’m sure you have your very own list of fall triggers. Take a minute to reflect on what makes you feel like fall has arrived and share those thoughts with your fellow gardeners. You might be surprised what they have to say.

GREAT PLANT PICK What: Alpine totara is an extraordinarily adaptable evergreen shrub. Brought into cultivation from the high elevations of New Zealand, this underused conifer is a great addition to our region.

Its dark green needles have a slight bluish cast and hold well on a dense and bushy plant. It thrives in the full range of hot full sun to full shade. Plant it at the top of rockeries so the branches can tumble down in a graceful manner. Its small stature makes it perfect for small city gardens. Alpine totara responds well to pruning and can be maintained easily as a low hedge, either in an informal or formal manner. Its horizontal growth habit makes it a good weaver in

the garden, growing around taller plants and filling empty spaces. Once established it tolerates considerable drought and can go though a typical summer without additional water. Occasionally it produces a few bright red fruit, but fruiting is very sporadic and generally not heavy enough to make an ornamental effect.

Where: Plant this useful evergreen in full sun to dappled shade. It prefers a well-drained or sandy soil. Once it is established it is drought tolerant. It will respond well to pruning and can be sheared to make a tight low hedge.

Size: Reaches a height of 3 feet with a spread of 6 feet.

Smart homes help make homeowners wise Smart home

Steve Lee knows when his mother gets up in the morning, walks into the living room, opens the front door to get the paper and takes her medications in the kitchen. Nothing unusual about that except that he lives an hour and 10 minutes away from her.

Lee’s 80-something mother lives alone in a smart home.

“I put a small system in her house that enables me to keep an eye on her,” said Lee, the director of technical services at Universal Devices in Encino, California. “If I don’t see any motion and she hasn’t opened the refrigerator by 8:30, then I know I need to check on her right away.”

Smart homes are becoming more common as people push the boundaries of digital technology to help them look after their health and security, control their carbon footprint and make living easier.

The Lauterette home in Northern Virginia is a textbook example of how to live digitally.

“I have over a hundred switches connected to appliances,” said Jeff Lauterette, director of technology at the National Petroleum Council, who lives with his wife, Cassie, and two children in a three-level, 6,000-squarefoot house. They get phone alerts ranging from the playful (the boys are clowning around after bedtime) to the serious (an unknown car or person is on the driveway).

A few weeks ago, a vehicle suspected of being involved in a Leesburg

made in crystal in 1982.

Later, blue, crystal and pink pieces were reproduced by Indiana Glass Co., which removed the date from the molds, creating identification problems between old Madrid and newer Recollection. Collectors aren’t as interested in Depression glass as they were in the 1970s, but Madrid is a popular pattern. Current prices for some amber Madrid pieces: dinner plate, $50; luncheon plate, $10; platter, $18; cup and saucer, $15; flat salt and pepper shaker set, $50; and pitcher, $35.

Q: I have a toy castle that was my uncle’s in the 1920s.

It’s made of wood and metal, and it’s raised on a “mountain” that resembles rocks with a trap door. It has four other pieces — a tower, two different buildings and a 6-inch wall — with painted brickwork, doors and windows. The base is wood, 11 by 14 inches, and has a hinged storage space for pieces. Any information about the maker and value?

Cassie Lauterette and her son, Ashton, 4, are illuminated by the glow of the tablets that control many of their home’s functions.

hit-and-run accident ended up behind the Lauterette house, captured on the video camera installed in their back yard.

“It was dark when we got home at night so we didn’t see it,” Jeff Lauterette said. “But in the morning we saw a wrecked and bloodied truck in the backyard. We looked at the footage on our video and called the police.

They came, processed the crime and identified the suspect. Because of that, he turned himself in. Our video helped the police catch him.” (The suspect was arrested and charged with a felony hit and run, according to Leesburg police.)

One key to an immersive digital lifestyle is an automation system that resides in your home. Universal Devices makes a black box that looks like a cable box, called the ISY (Intelligent System). It connects to a home network and power lines, and to a smartphone, tablet or computer.

Not all automation systems are black boxes. Some are built into security systems; some are built into a

home during construction; some are in the cloud.

About a dozen apps on the market use the ISY, which works with controllable outlets, light switches, multi-button keypad switches, motion detectors, door contacts, ceiling fan controls and many other devices, Lee said.

You log into the ISY Web site on your computer and create programs to turn things on and off at certain times.

“It’s a simple process.

You don’t have to be a programmer,” Lee said.

“The brilliance of the ISY system is the flexibility it offers. This isn’t just turning on and off lights,” Lauterette said.

You can program by the day, season or your vacation schedule. The ISY uses if-then statements to function. Meaning, if this happens, then do this. For example: ■ If it is raining, then do not turn on the sprinklers.

■ If it is Monday at 1 p.m., then open the garage door to let the gardener in.

■ If it is 6:30 p.m., then turn on the air conditioner.

Lauterette said that he

“I’ve opened the garage door from Florida to let in a deliveryman,” said Cassie Lauterette, owner of Mid Atlantic Consulting, which assists with smart home set-ups.

“We watched him drive up. Then we opened the garage door, and he put the package inside,” Jeff Lauterette said.

Short-term programs can be written for a specific time period, such as a

program to turn lights on at varying times to make it look like people are home when they are not.

The ISY also enables virtual on-off switches. You can put a keypad switch on the night table, turn on the bathroom lights before you get out of bed and turn them off when you get back in. You also can turn on the coffee pot when you wake up.

Even without a dedicated automation system, you can still have remote capabilities, because many companies make Smart appliances that have their own app.

Cassie Lauterette cooks a roast in a slow-cooker via phone. “I can put in vegetables, potatoes and frozen meat in the morning. If I want it to cook four hours I turn it on at 2 o’clock wherever I am, and when I walk in the door at 6, it’s ready,” she said.

Q: I have a Schrader valve with a leather case.

It was manufactured by A. Schrader’s Son Inc. in Brooklyn, New York. It has three patent dates, March 28, 1916; Feb. 14, 1922; and April 10, 1923. It’s marked “Ford Motor Co. for Model A.” How much is it worth?

A: August Schrader received his first patent for a valve in 1893.

Today Schrader valves are still used on most pneumatic (inflatable) tires on bicycles, cars and motorcycles. August Schrader emigrated from Germany and opened a machine shop in Manhattan in 1844. He made valves for life preservers, diving

equipment, air pillows, and other inflatable rubber items and held several patents. The company moved to Brooklyn before 1900.

After his son George joined the business, it became A. Schrader’s Son. Ford made the Model A from 1927 until 1932. You might find interest in your valve at a classic car show or at the Model A Ford Collectors Club (www.mafca.com).

Your valve might appeal to an owner of a Model A Ford, and the leather case might add value.

Tip: Pen marks can be removed from leather with a clear gum eraser, not a pink one.

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: My friends and I are at a loss for how to help our good friend chill the hell out about finding a partner. It occupies an inordinate amount of her considerable brain space, and it shows.

She’s had two short but serious relationships in the 10 years I’ve known her and they’ve both been with mean man-babies. But she has had thousands of micro-relationships in her head with any guy who enters her orbit. There are new prospects every week, and she checks what little she knows about them against her spreadsheet of desired qualities in a guy. Her deal-breakers go way, way beyond what one typically applies to that term.

When she isn’t rejecting guys who might take longer to show themselves, she’s alienating others with her cloud of desperation.

This has been confirmed several times by men through back channels, but none have said so to her face (that I know of ).

Her roommate, along with my husband (who, as her primary co-worker, bears the brunt of her stress about this issue) and I, have each taken our turn at bat, gently or not-so-gently

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT encouraging her to stop seeing men as matrices of data and projecting marriage and kids onto them before the first date’s even done. Sometimes she seems receptive to advice, but more often she just has an answer for everything and gets really defensive. This is a very serious endeavor for her, a code she needs to crack, and she doesn’t know how to let go.

Have I mentioned that she is beautiful, smart, driven, delightful, kind, and a pure ray of sunshine to everyone she meets outside of a dating context?

How do we, her friends, continue to watch her sabotage herself? No one has gone so far as to say, “You’re desperate, and it shows, and it’s hurting you.”

itself for one of you to go exactly that far and just say it, in a loving way. The moment I have in mind is when she is seeking and plainly receptive to a hard truth, and counting on a friend, one on one, to speak it.

Short of that, though, I urge you (all of you, if I have the others’ attention too) to stop giving advice and stop hoping she’ll calm down and stop just being part of her terrible selfdestructive drama. Giving advice fuels it, validates it even, as does responding to details of the latest person in her sights. It’s all attention and therefore an emotional and social reward for her behavior.

Change the subject where you can, say something general when asked to respond — “I don’t know, I guess it has to run its course” — and stay faithful to the cause of not getting sucked in.

It might seem like you’re turning your back on her, but you’re not; you’re there for her as you’ve always been. What you aren’t doing anymore is treating her micro-relationships and matrices as legitimate topics of advice and conversation. It’s “chill the hell out” via actions, not words.

Dear Abby: At what point does a parent no longer have the right to know who their child’s friends are?

I have three grown daughters, all on their own, living on the other side of the country. During a recent visit home, I asked each of them to give me all of their friends’ phone numbers, in case I couldn’t reach them. I also wanted to know who they were exactly, how well they knew them, etc. I was simply thinking of their safety. If I can’t reach my girls, I want to know who might have seen them last and, if need be, give that information to the police.

Abby, all three of them told me NO! They say they are adults, and that we (their dad and I) no longer have the right to “dictate” who they are friends with.

I say I’m their mother and no matter how old they get, I will ALWAYS have the right to know who they are friends with. I would appreciate your thoughts.

— Renee In Oregon Dear Renee: If you were less overbearing, perhaps your adult daughters would be living closer and would answer their phones when you call. You should apologize for giving them such a heavy-handed third degree.

Dear Abby: My wife and I had dinner with some other couples at an elegant, white linen tablecloth restaurant. After the meals were brought to the table, someone said, “We need to pray.” In this quiet, candlelit setting, a “Bless us, oh Lord ...” was spoken aloud by most of the people in our party, causing heads to turn at a number of nearby tables. Undoubtedly, the din sounded like chanting.

I was embarrassed.

Please understand, we are religious and we pray RIP HAYWIRE

aloud in church, but not in restaurants. I have seen people bow their heads and pray privately, which seems more appropriate.

Is there a rule of etiquette about praying in a restaurant? — Silently Praying For Advice Dear Silently Praying: Yes, there is. In restaurants, praying should be done quietly and inconspicuously to avoid distracting other diners.

Dear Abby: I love my friends and enjoy going out to dinner, and attending plays and movies with them. However, something really annoys me. My husband and I are usually early, and when we go to the movies, our friends ask us to pick up the tickets if we arrive first. After the movie we’ll grab a bite to eat and at the end of the evening say goodbye.

The question is, how do we ask them for the money we laid out for the tickets if they forget to offer it? This has happened three times with different friends and we’re out the money. — Annoyed In Teaneck Dear Annoyed: There are a couple of ways to do it: As you hand the tickets over, you might say, “That’ll be $20, please.” But if that’s uncomfortable for you, the following day, you or your husband should call these “forgetful” friends and ask them to send you a check.

You have questions. I have some answers.

Q: I am a great fan of “Rizzoli and Isles,” but am somewhat confused regarding the story that introduced Maura’s father. I remember a story line a few years ago where Maura’s father was a mobster and she testified against him in court, donated a kidney to her sister and met her doctor mother. Can you clear this up for me?

A: The biological parents of Maura Isles (Sasha Alexander) are the mobster Patrick Doyle (John Doman) and Dr. Hope Martin (Sharon Lawrence).

But she did not meet them until she was an adult. To protect her from his enemies, Doyle claimed baby Maura died and had her adopted by another couple. That was Constance and Arthur Isles, played by Jacqueline Bisset and — you finally saw recently — David Ogden Stiers.

In 1919, New York City welcomed home Gen. John J. Pershing and 25,000 soldiers who’d served in the U.S. First Division during World War I. In 1935, Sen. Huey P. Long died in Baton Rouge, two days after being shot in the Louisiana state Capitol, allegedly by Dr. Carl Weiss.

In 1945, Vidkun Quisling was sentenced to death in Norway for collaborating with the Nazis (he was executed by firing squad in October 1945).

In 1963, 20 black students entered Alabama public schools following a standoff between federal authorities and Gov. George C. Wallace.

Q: My husband and I recently finished watching all six seasons of “HeartLand,” a Canadian-made series. We enjoyed it so much, but were disappointed in the last episode. It left a lot of questions unanswered. Will there be more episodes of this?

A: There already are. You must have been watching the show on Netflix, which has six seasons. A seventh and eighth season have also been made, and aired on UP TV, the self-described home of “uplifting entertainment.” The seventh season is now on DVD and the eighth is, at least for a time, on demand. (Check your local service provider.) A ninth season will begin airing in Canada in October, but I do not yet know where and when it will run in the United States.

Q: I read that “Longmire” would be returning. I have been watching the TV schedules for this but have not seen it yet. Any info?

Q: Will “Grimm” be coming back?

A: Yes. The NBC horror drama begins its fifth season Oct. 30.

Q: Will there be a new season of “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire” in the fall?

A: Yes, although it won’t be everywhere you’ve seen it in the past. If you do see the show, though, you will find another new host, Chris Harrison of “The Bachelor”/”Bachelorette.”

He succeeds Terry Crews, who after a single season is reportedly focusing on other projects, both as an actor and a host. And, according to numerous reports, the format is getting changed — going back to the classic “ladder” approach to questions, where their value increases with each new question, instead of the random shuffling of values used more recently.

Williams returning to Miss America three decades after nude pix scandal

Alexie defends use of poem in anthology

More than 30 years after she was forced to relinquish her title because of a nude photo scandal, Vanessa Williams, 52, will be serving as head judge for the Miss America pageant ceremony, according to an announcement Tuesday from the Miss America foundation.

In September 1983, Williams was crowned Miss America, winning the competition while representing New York and making history. But months later, the pageant’s executive committee voted unanimously to request that she resign after Penthouse magazine published nude photos she’d taken several years earlier, despite the fact that Williams was reportedly the most widely booked Miss America winner in the pageant’s history up to that point.

Williams remains the only titleholder who was given a request to resign in the pageant’s 94 years of existence.

Despite the setback, Williams more than rebounded. She went on to enjoy a long and fruitful career as an actress and singer, co-starring opposite Arnold Schwarzenegger in “Eraser.”

She’s netted 17 Grammy

Seattle writer Sherman Alexie is defending his decision to include a poem by a white man writing under a Chinese pen name in the “Best American Poetry” anthology for 2015.

Alexie, an award-winning poet and fiction writer, wrote a long blog post over the weekend in which he acknowledged his anger and embarrassment upon learning that Yi-Fen Chou’s “The Bees, the Flowers, Jesus, Ancient Tigers, Poseidon, Adam and Eve” was in fact composed by Michael Derrik Hudson.

Alexie, who was told of Yi-Fen’s real identity by Hudson himself, wrote on blog.bestamericanpoetry. com that personal embarrassment would have been the only reason for removing the poem.

Hudson acknowledges in the book’s biographical notes that he called himself Yi-Fen Chou because the poem had been rejected 40 times under his own name.

Is your home ready for the winter?

Fall doesn’t just involve colorful leaves, rainy days and halloween candy; it’s also the time to close the pool, caulk windows, clean gutters and the list goes on. In fact, preparing for fall involves a great many jobs. Here are a few of them.

Put away deck furniture and barbecue, unless it’s set up to be used year round. Drain and store garden hoses and turn off any outside taps.

Clean gutters and make sure they drain properly.

Inspect the roof. Make sure skylights, roof shingles and seals on chimneys or vents are in good condition. Do any necessary repairs.

Have your chimney cleaned and your fireplace inspected to prevent fires. Make sure smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are working well, and then change the batteries (they should be replaced every year).

Examine the foundations and the exterior siding, and fix any cracks to prevent water or air infiltration.

Check the slope of the ground and make any modifications to ensure rainwater drains away from your home. Check the sump pump to avoid any unpleasant surprises during heavy rainfall or the spring melt.

Check your deck or balcony. Make sure railings and

steps are safe, and replace rotten or damaged planks.

Check if the deck is adequately lit and take advantage of the mild weather to replace bulbs in outdoor fixtures.

Inspect doors and windows. To keep cold and damp from entering the house, replace damaged seals and weather stripping. Remove window air conditioners.

Remove bug screens to prevent condensation and maximize the amount of winter sunlight entering your home.

Check all outlets (central vacuum, drier, range hood, etc.) and make sure the vent covers close properly.

Clean the filters of your air exchanger and heating system. Vacuum inside any furnace registers. Verify that the heating system is working properly. In fact, fall is the perfect time to have it checked out by a professional.

Improve the air quality in your home by vacuuming the baseboard heaters, carpets, curtains and fabriccovered chairs.

Test your water if you have a well.

Clean the garbage floor catch basin. If it connects with the house plumbing, make sure the automatic valve closes properly.
