Everett Clinic, Fortune 500 firm to merge Denver-based DaVita HealthCare operates physician groups in six states and has more than 2,000 kidney dialysis centers nationally.

By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Everett Clinic, with 318,000 patients in

Snohomish and Island counties, announced plans Monday to merge with Denver-based DaVita HealthCare Partners. The Fortune 500 company operates physician

groups in six states and has more than 2,000 kidney dialysis centers nationally.

The Everett Clinic will keep its name and continue to be led by a physician board, said Rick Cooper, the clinic’s chief executive.

Patients will notice little change, he said, either in dealing with a physician or with insurance

issues. “It will be business as usual,” he said.

No details of the financial deal between the two organizations were disclosed. Final approval could come early next year. It must first be approved by The Everett Clinic’s 250 physician shareholders, Cooper said.

EVERETT — Jane Reno knew she was losing her vision, but when the doctor confirmed it, she still got upset. She thought about her choices. There had to be support available, people who were going through the same thing.

On Monday, she attended the monthly support group for the visually impaired at the Carl Gipson Senior Center in Everett.

This month’s topic was dealing with medication, prescription bottles and pharmacists.

Riley attended one of the support groups in 2014 and went back for one in January.

She was told the former leader had died. The senior center director asked Riley if she could lead the group. Her February group had two people attend. August’s meeting had 14. They talked about devices that can help visually impaired people with chores. Someone brought a scale with an electronic voice that reads out the weight. They laughed about that: Who wants their weight read aloud?

Jane Reno, of Everett, tries on a pair of glasses designed to replicate visual impairment during a monthly support group meeting for the blind and visually impaired at the Carl Gipson Senior Center in Everett on Monday. The group, open to anyone with a visual impairment regardless of age, discusses topics ranging from technology designed to make everyday tasks easier to navigating interactions with others who may not fully understand blindness.

SEATTLE — A federal jury is expected Tuesday to hear from the first witnesses in the case against a Tulalip man whose teenage son shot five of his friends at Marysville Pilchuck High School.

Raymond Fryberg faces six counts of illegal gun possession. He was indicted earlier this year in U.S. District Court in Seattle and faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

Prosecutors Raymond allege that RayFryberg mond Fryberg wasn’t legally permitted to own the Beretta pistol Jaylen Fryberg used to murder four of his classmates and wound a fifth.

The moms of two of the victims attended Monday’s court proceedings.

Judge James Robart made it clear to prospective jurors that Raymond Fryberg isn’t charged with any crimes related to the school violence.

“This is not a trial about the shooting. This is about the gun,” Robart said.

The defense last week tried to convince Robart to move the trial to a different location, citing extensive publicity about the killings. The judge declined but ruled that any statements Fryberg made to police in March about his son’s actions should be redacted from transcripts provided to the jury.

Lawyers on Monday carefully questioned jurors who said they had heard about the school

National Parks’ welcome mat out for families, kids

By Jill Schensul If your family includes a fourth-grader, you’ve got your ticket to the national parks for this year. The annual pass, which would otherwise cost a family $80 (unless the family includes a senior citizen or member of the military) is the latest in the National Park Service’s efforts to introduce a new generation to all that is amazing about the park system.

While park visitation hit a record 292.8 million people last year, the number of visitors under the age of 15 has fallen by half the last decade. The overall average age of park visitors has increased, particularly at the big parks out West: According to a new report, the average age of visitors to Denali in Alaska is 57; at Yellowstone, it is 54.

Park officials have begun to worry that interest in and support for the parks will dwindle, if the parks don’t become relevant to

Several prospective jurors were excused after they said they weren’t sure if they could give Raymond Fryberg a fair trial because of what they know about the shootings. One man said he might have a hard time convicting Fryberg “after all he’s been through.” A woman was excused after she said she believed the killings wouldn’t have happened if Fryberg hadn’t owned the gun.

younger generations. That’s especially crucial with 80 percent of Americans living in urban settings, and the only forests they may ever see are on the wallpaper samples for their iPads.

So officials have been brainstorming and coming up with new programs for kids. The free passes for fourth-graders are available at the new website everykidinapark.gov. To get the pass, fourth-graders need to answer a few questions about outdoor adventures.

Then, yes, there’s instant gratification: you can print

out a pass at home, or trade it in for a more credit-cardlike plastic pass.

The site lets kids start planning a trip into nature, depending on what appeals to them. They can see rare animals, explore the woods, visit a national park or find other places to play.

It’s not just fourth-graders who are being courted.

At nationalparks.org, the National Parks Foundation, which promotes and provides private support for the parks, you can download a free guide with 35 park adventures for kids

of all ages. The parks have also joined forces with two icons of childhood to help get the word out.

The first is with Sesame Street. A new online series, “Sesame Street Explores National Parks” (sesamestreet.org/parks), features Muppets Elmo and Murray visiting Gateway National Recreation Area in New York and Grand Canyon National Park in Arizona in six short videos as well as accompanying hands-on activities; the videos teach young people about habitats, seasons, plants and animals.

They can also learn how to conduct an animal survey, look for nests, identify migration patterns and even listen to the sounds of nature.

The second effort is with Disney, in which a public service announcement that features Disney Channel star Caroline Sunshine encourages exploration of the outdoors.

The announcement was a good match for the theme

the judge she is a strong advocate of gun rights and felt that there are people who want to hold someone accountable for the shootings. “Only his son is responsible,” the woman said. Another man was excused after he told the judge no one should own guns. One woman was let go because she works for the Marysville School District.

Jaylen Fryberg, 15, invited his friends and cousins to lunch Oct. 24. Witnesses told police the freshman didn’t say anything before he stood up, pulled a gun from his backpack and opened fire in a school cafeteria. He killed himself before a social studies teacher could reach him.

The investigation found that Jaylen took his father’s gun from the center console of the family’s pickup truck. Detectives also concluded that the Tulalip boy planned the shooting at least a day or two before.

Investigators weren’t able to determine a concrete motive.

Records show that the boy was upset about the recent break-up with his girlfriend and threatened suicide when she wouldn’t return his text messages.

Prosecutors allege that Raymond Fryberg was prohibited from owning any firearms. In 2002, his exgirlfriend and the mother of one of his children was granted a no-contact order by the Tulalip Tribal Court.

In 2012, Fryberg pleaded no-contest to allegations that he violated the order.

He was given a six-month suspended sentence.

Prosecutors allege that in court paperwork Fryberg acknowledged that he violated a valid order and as part of his sentence he agreed to comply with the protection order.

Fryberg’s attorneys say their client was never properly notified in 2002 that the court had issued a temporary protection order against him. He was not present at the hearing when a tribal judge imposed the permanent order because he hadn’t been served, his attorney John Henry Browne said.

park giant, whose Disney Friends for Change and Disney Worldwide Conservation Fund programs were created to connect kids and families to nature.

Of course, the national parks have always had programs for young people — the Junior Rangers is a longstanding effort — in place at most parks. Though they vary slightly by location, most encourage kids to become outdoor stewards.

Youngsters may get a free booklet filled with activities or worksheets on spotting local wildlife or be able to take classes or visit exhibitions on everything from history to safety issues.

At the Grand Tetons, for example, kids learn how to keep food locked up to prevent bears from coming into campsites. At Yellowstone, a display at Old Faithful teaches kids about geysers. You also can download booklets and a variety of educational materials at nps.gov/kids/ jrRangers.cfm.

In its trial brief, the defense also attacked the order, saying Fryberg’s exgirlfriend filed motions to dismiss it and “admitted she falsified the original petition.”

The defense claims that Fryberg’s interactions with law enforcement led him to believe that he could legally own guns. Fryberg purchased several guns between 2012 and 2014 at the Tulalip Cabela’s store.

Prosecutors say he didn’t disclose that he was the subject of a protection order.

The protection order never was entered into a state database, allowing Fryberg to purchase the guns and obtain a concealed weapons permit.

Eyman misused funds, state report says

Supporters of Mukilteo initiative creator say timing of PDC probe is politically motivated

By Jerry Cornfield Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — Initiative promoter Tim Eyman secretly moved money among two ballot measure campaigns in 2012 and pocketed tens of thousands of dollars in the process, according to findings of a three-year state investigation released Monday.

Eyman, of Mukilteo, allegedly took money received for one initiative and funneled a

portion through a Virginia group in support of another measure he backed, staff of the state Public Disclosure Commission concluded in its report.

The money, about $308,000, came from the signaturegathering firm Eyman hired for both initiatives. Eyman kept a large chunk for his personal living expenses in violation of campaign laws, the report said.

PDC staff Thursday will ask the commission to refer the case

to Attorney General Bob Ferguson because the commission’s penalty authority is inadequate to address the “seriousness of the apparent Tim Eyman violations.”

The commission can impose fines up to $10,000 per violation while the state can triple the amount and impose other restrictions.

Neither Eyman nor his attorney, Mark Lamb of Bothell, is expected to attend Thursday’s meeting.

In a prepared statement, Lamb said “the report omits and mischaracterizes evidence. To this day, my client believes all required information was reported.”

Lamb also questioned the timing of the report’s release. It comes as voters are weighing the merits of Eyman latest anti-tax measure, I-1366, on this November’s ballot.

The healing power of music

“My client firmly believes it is not a coincidence that an investigation which lay dormant for so long suddenly sprang to life shortly after opponents failed to block a vote on the latest tax initiative,” Lamb said. “Regardless, because of the recommendation that this matter proceed to litigation, we will not have additional comment at this time.”

County courthouse plans continue to evolve

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — When it comes to Snohomish County’s stalled courthouse project, political leaders can agree on one thing: their exasperation.

Beyond that, there’s little common ground.

County Council Chairman Dave Somers on Monday

proposed the latest turn in what had been a project to build an eight-story, $162 million courthouse until the groundbreaking was canceled last month.

Somers wants to take another look at remodeling the existing 1967 courthouse and adding a new wing with three or four stories.

“It’s less expensive than the $162 million option, it seems

feasible, (but) the level of detail we need to make a final decision isn’t there yet, so that’s the intent,” Somers said during a council meeting.

That’s similar to the plans the county started pursuing in 2012 that Somers opposed. Instead, the council decided in 2013 to build a brand-new courthouse and later settled on an option that cost more than double

the option to remodel the old building and add a new wing.

Somers and his colleagues decided Monday to wait at least a week before exploring a new direction on the project. The pause should allow court officials a chance to consider the idea and make a recommendation on whether it’s worth their See COURTHOUSE, Page A4

EVERETT — Commuters heading to Seattle and other points south of Everett should expect heavier-than-normal traffic along I-5 Tuesday morning.

China President Xi Jinping is arriving at Paine Field for a three-day visit to Washington and will be taken to the Westin hotel in downtown Seattle for meetings with local leaders.

Xi’s plane is expected to land at 9:30 a.m., but aside from that, which route his motorcade will take to Seattle and other locations in the region is unknown, said Harmony Weinberg, a spokeswoman for the state Department of Transportation.

Security for the visit is being coordinated by the U.S. Secret Service, with support from local police.

On Wednesday, Xi is expected to tour the Boeing factory in Everett and to visit to Microsoft in Redmond. On Thursday, he flies from Paine Field to Washington, D.C. The transportation department is urging drivers to plan ahead and leave early, or to stay home if they can.

“Most of all, don’t be surprised,” Weinberg said. “Be prepared for anything.”

most ardent critics hopes the attorney general gets the case.

“At long last, Tim Eyman’s misdeeds are catching up to him,” said Andrew Villeneuve of the Northwest Progressive Institute in a statement. “The day of reckoning has come. The wrongdoing detailed in these findings is part of a pattern of behavior that stretches back to nearly the beginning of Eyman’s career.”

The genesis of the investigation is a complaint filed in April 2012 alleging that some of the money Eyman raised in support of Initiative 1185 was improperly used for the gathering of signatures for Initiative 517.

I-1185, which required any tax increase be passed by a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate, was approved by voters in November 2012. It has since been struck down by the state Supreme Court.

I-517, meanwhile, proposed sweeping changes to the state’s initiative and

referendum process. Eddie Agazarm, a co-founder of Citizen Solutions, was its chief backer. Voters turned it down in November 2013.

PDC staff focused on transactions involving Eyman, his political committee Voters Want More Choices and the firm that gathered signatures for both initiatives, Citizen Solutions.

The firm earned nearly $1.2 million for its work on I-1185. Voters Want More Choices paid $623,325 with the rest coming from the Association of Washington Business and Association of Beer and Wine Wholesalers.

On July 11, 2012, a few days after Eyman turned in I-1185 petitions, Citizen Solutions wired $308,000 to Eyman through his company, Watchdog for Taxpayers.

Then, over the next few weeks, Eyman loaned $190,000 to Citizens in Charge, a Virginia organization that supports initiatives around the country. The group turned around and sent $182,000 to Protect Your Right to Vote on Initiatives, the political committee behind I-517. It hired Citizen Solutions to gather its signatures.

Neither the payment to Eyman nor the loan was reported to the Public Disclosure Commission.

PDC staff alleges both should have been as they represented the expenditure of funds for political purposes.

Eyman told PDC investigators that Citizen Solutions paid him to help find new clients for the firm and he could use it as he wished. He said when he

made the loan he wanted to support Citizens in Charge but denied knowing how it would be spent.

Citizens in Charge executive director Paul Jacobs “said he had many projects going on nationally and that if additional funds came in, they would be in a position to be able to help Initiative 517,” Eyman told PDC staff. “But once I made the loans, I didn’t have any knowledge or understanding of whether or not my loans went to his other projects or whether or not he used those funds specifically for 517. I believe to this day that everything was done correctly.”

Out of the $308,000 from Citizen Solution, Eyman kept $108,000 for personal use. With loan repayments, Eyman’s earned about $170,000 — all of which the PDC staff contend are required to be reported and have not been.

And there could be earnings from Citizen Solutions in other years that Eyman should have reported as well.

Agarzam told PDC staff that since 1998 the firm has paid Eyman a consulting fee of $5,000 to $100,000 for business he brought in — including his own initiatives. Those fees have not shown up on any reports filed with the commission.

This isn’t Eyman’s first run-in with PDC. In 2002, he tearfully confessed to not reporting that he was taking money for salary that went to his political committee. That resulted in roughly $55,000 in fines.

WOODINVILLE — Three men were injured Sunday morning when a pipe bomb exploded in a shed in south Snohomish County.

The men were working on the bomb at the time, Snohomish County

sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. The explosion was reported at 5:15 a.m. along 106th Drive SE, in an unincorporated area of Snohomish County near Woodinville.

One man, 34, lost a hand in the explosion. He was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.

He also had a warrant for his arrest from the Department of Corrections.

Two other men, 42 and 52, suffered leg injuries.

At least one of them was hospitalized.

The sheriff’s bomb unit is investigating, Ireton said Monday. No other information was available.

Marysville motorcyclist killed in crash Herald staff MARYSVILLE — A 41-year-old Marysville man died Sunday after crashing his motorcycle.

The crash was reported just after 1 a.m. in the 5800 block of Sunnyside Boulevard, Cmdr. Robb

Lamoureux said.

The man’s family had been part of a multi-car caravan when his motorcycle left the road and struck a tree, Lamoureux said.

Family members and medics were unable to revive the man, who died

at the scene.

A crash investigation is ongoing. The man’s name was not made public Monday.

Anyone with information about the crash is asked to contact detective Paul McShane at 360-363-8350.

Lynnwood man is victim of homicide Herald staff LYNNWOOD — A man whose body was found Sunday in a Lynnwood apartment is the victim of a homicide.

The Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office did not release the man’s name or age Monday.

The office also didn’t say how he died. Officers discovered the man’s body

Sunday morning after they were asked to check on someone in an apartment in the 19300 block of 36th Avenue W. Lynnwood police did not release any other details on Monday.

Dunshee to chair appropriations committee Associated Press OLYMPIA — The state House of Representatives has chosen Rep. Hans Dunshee to be the new chair of the House Appropriations Committee.

Dunshee is the long-time chair of the Capital Budget Committee, which writes

the state’s construction budget.

The Democrat from Snohomish said his experience working closely with Republicans on the construction budget will be useful when he begins negotiating with Senate Republicans on the state budget.

Dunshee replaces the

time, something many officials clearly doubt.

If the county follows up with a detailed study it’s likely to take a couple of months and cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, facilities director Mark Thunberg said.

Somers’ proposal counters recommendations that County Executive John Lovick made about the courthouse earlier this month.

The council chairman is challenging Lovick for the executive’s job in the Nov. 3 election.

Lovick issued a press release Sept. 1 announcing he no longer supported building a new downtown courthouse.

He blamed Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson and the Everett City Council for failing to work with the county to solve parking concerns.

Lovick suggested looking for other potential locations beyond downtown Everett and directed

staff to seek bids for the work.

Somers’ motion would stop any further work on scouting other areas farther from the county jail and legal services clustered downtown.

Lovick also recommended returning to taxpayers a portion of the property taxes raised for courthouse construction but now may not be used for that purpose.

That amounts to about $4 million annually. The executive wanted to use some of the remaining dollars to address safety issues within the current building, replace elevators and abate hazardous materials such as asbestos.

The executive also suggested retiring unused portions of the $75 million in bonds taken out for courthouse construction as a way to save money.

Somers said he wants to settle on a plan before deciding what to do about the bonds. His

previous budget chair, Rep. Ross Hunter, who left the Legislature to become director of the state’s Department of Early Learning.

Dunshee acknowledges the biggest priority of the Legislature right now is finding more money for public schools.

proposal would reserve the courthouse-related tax increases solely for future courthouse needs until details for a cheaper alternative emerge.

The assistant presiding judge for Snohomish County Superior Court, Linda Krese, reminded council members Monday that court officials didn’t start the discussions about rebuilding or remodeling the old courthouse. They work with other branches of government to let them know what plans are best for the public and staff.

Krese said the remodeling proposal doesn’t appear to meet those needs.

“We do not necessarily think that money should be spent to do something inadequate,” she said.

If the courts remain in the old building, Krese said, the county needs to fix the elevators, since there aren’t enough to begin with and one has been broken for months.

OBITUARIES AND MEMORIALS

Washington begins rule process to cap carbon pollution Associated Press SEATTLE — The state Department of Ecology on Monday proposed capping greenhouse gases from the state’s 35 largest emitters, rolling out a new rule-making process months after Gov. Jay Inslee failed to get legislation passed on his ambitious cap-and-trade plan.

The agency began writing a rule to limit — and reduce over time — the amount of heat-trapping gases from the state’s largest industrial facilities, including power plants, refineries and landfills.

“The governor asked us to take action because we have too much at stake,” Ecology Director Maia Bellon said in a call with reporters. She cited drought and devastating wildfires as “sobering examples” of what will happen if the state fails to act.

Ecology officials said the rule would apply to facilities emitting 100,000 metric tons of greenhouse gases a year, which would capture about 60 percent of the state’s overall carbon emissions. Those that don’t comply could face penalties like those used to enforce other regulations.

After state lawmakers failed to act on Inslee’s plan to charge emissions from oil refineries, power plants and fuel suppliers, the governor said he

would use his executive authority to develop a regulatory cap under the state’s Clean Air Act. In July, he directed Ecology to come up with a binding cap.

Unlike legislation Inslee sought earlier this year, this proposal won’t charge emitters for carbon pollution. Inslee had pitched his plan as a way to raise more than $1 billion a year for schools and other programs. His proposal was strongly opposed in the Republican-controlled Senate; it also never came up for a floor vote in the Democrat-controlled House.

Many of the details will be worked out as the agency gets input from the public in coming months.

A formal draft rule is expected by December and a final rule should be completed by June, Bellon said.

Ecology’s proposal would apply to fewer facilities — just 35 compared with about 130 facilities that would have been affected by Inslee’s initial cap-and-trade proposal.

The facilities affected by the Ecology Department’s proposal include Nucor Steel in Seattle, the Weyerhaeuser pulp and paper mill in Longview, Alcoa Intalco Works in Ferndale, McCain Foods in Othello, Frederickson Power in Tacoma, Boise Paper in Wallula, and several Puget Sound Energy plants.

Seattle IRS agent charged with bribing pot shop owner Associated Press SEATTLE — An Internal Revenue Service agent has been arrested on charges related to soliciting a bribe and accepting payment from a Seattle marijuana business owner.

Paul G. Hurley of Seattle was charged Monday in U.S. District Court with soliciting and agreeing to receive a bribe by a public official and two counts of receiving a bribe by a public official.

Court records say

the 42-year-old Hurley reportedly asked for $20,000 cash from the business owner in exchange for giving lenience in an audit although the owner never requested it.

Seattlepi.com reported that Hurley said he was living paycheck to paycheck and was saving the owner over $1 million in the audit.

Hurley appeared in court Monday and was released on his own recognizance pending future hearings.

Goldmark to run again Associated Press WENATCHEE — Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark has announced he’ll run for a third term in 2016. Goldmark said in a news release he announced his run for re-election at a weekend meeting of Washington State Democrats.

As commissioner, Goldmark has been the leader of the Washington state Department of Natural Resources since defeating

Republican incumbent Doug Sutherland in 2008.

Goldmark oversees the state’s largest firefighting force and manages over 5.7 million acres of stateowned land on behalf of Washington residents.

Goldmark said he’s running again to find sustainable solutions to managing climate change and wildfires and to fix education funding. He was re-elected in 2012 with 59 percent of the vote.

Walker quits 2016 race Associated Press MADISON, Wis. — Warning the GOP’s presidential race has become too nasty, Scott Walker suspended his 2016 campaign Monday and called on some of his Republican rivals to do the same, citing an urgent need to “clear the field” to help defeat GOP front-runner Donald Trump.

“Today, I believe that I am being called to lead by helping to clear the field in this race so that a positive conservative message can rise to the top of the field. With that in mind, I will suspend my campaign immediately,” Walker said.

“I encourage other Republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same so the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive conservative alternative to the current front-runner,” Walker continued. “This is fundamentally important to the future of the party and more importantly to the future of our country.”

The announcement marked a dramatic fall for Walker, who

MORRY GASH / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker announces Monday that he is suspending his presidential campaign.

was struggling to generate fundraising and enthusiasm after surging into the race’s top tier earlier in the year. He will return to his job in Wisconsin as governor, where his term runs through 2018.

One of the last Republicans to enter the race, Walker joined former Texas Gov. Rick Perry as one of the first to leave it, unable to adjust to the popularity of Trump or break out in either of GOP’s first two

debates. Both candidates warned of the billionaire businessman’s influence on the GOP as they exited, although neither called him out by name.

“Sadly, the debate taking place in the Republican party today is not focused on that optimistic view of America.

Instead, it has drifted into personal attacks,” Walker said. “In the end, I believe that voters want to be for something and

not against someone. Instead of talking about how bad things are, we want to hear about how we can make them better for everyone.”

Walker’s fall was in many ways more dramatic than Perry’s. He was thought to be a leader in the crowded field for much of the year and built a massive national organization with paid staff spread across the country that dwarfed many of his rivals in scale and scope.

“I’m not sure what went wrong,” said Iowa state Sen. Mark Costello, who endorsed Walker earlier this year. “I think all the more provocative statements some of the candidates made got them more press.

Walker, 47, tried to appeal to religious conservatives, tea party conservatives and the more traditional GOP base. He tried to cast himself as an unintimidated conservative fighter who had a record of victories in a state that hasn’t voted Republican for president since 1984.

Like Perry, however, Walker found little room for such a message in a race dominated

by Trump.

American trash tops estimate Landfill reports indicate we throw away twice as much as previously thought.

Associated Press WASHINGTON — Americans are sending more than twice as much trash to landfills as the federal government has estimated, according to a new study.

It turns out that on average America tosses five pounds of trash per person per day into its landfills, according to an analysis of figures from the same study, which is based on actual landfill measurements instead of government estimates.

For years, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency relied on estimates to determine how much trash was being sent to landfills. But in 2010, the agency required most municipal landfills to measure and report how much trash was heading into the dumps, as part of an effort to lower heattrapping methane emissions.

Researchers at Yale University looked at the records for more than 1,200 landfills and calculated amounts, predominantly based on weights.

They figured it was 289 million tons in 2012, according to a study published Monday in the journal Nature Climate Change. For the same year, EPA estimated the figure to be 135 million tons.

The Yale team calculated that

California wildfire destroys 1,000 homes SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The scope of devastation from a destructive wildfire is becoming clearer and so too is the size of the need in one of the state’s poorer counties. Gov. Jerry Brown requested a presidential disaster declaration Monday, noting that more than 1,000 homes had been confirmed destroyed, with the number likely to go higher as assessment continues in Lake County, north of San Francisco. Many others are damaged or don’t have power, leaving thousands in need of shelter. “The biggest challenge is there aren’t enough hotel rooms in Lake County,” a county supervisor said Monday. He lost most of his 1,700-acre ranch to fire but kept his house.

Illinois: Apples are chosen Skip the acai berries and pass on the pomegranate juice. When it comes to fruit, American kids prefer apples — by a long shot. On any given day, apples account for 29 percent of the fruit consumed by U.S. children and teens, according to a study published Monday by the journal Pediatrics. About twothirds of that is eaten as whole apples, and one-third is sipped as 100 percent apple juice. Kids of all ages rely on apples to fulfill government recommendations to consume up to two cups of fruit per day.

New York: Academy closes The 126-year-old New York Military Academy — once attended by Donald Trump, Stephen Sondheim and John Gotti — has closed its doors and is up for auction. The school, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in March, will be auctioned off at the end of the month for a minimum bid of $9.5 million. The new buyer of the 113-acre property in the Orange County village of Cornwall-on-Hudson isn’t required to maintain a school on the land. A deal to sell the school to a group of California-based investors fell through when a down payment of $1.3 million wasn’t delivered earlier this month.

Ohio: Campus sex assaults

Trash is compacted at a landfill in Moretown, Vermont.

The Environmental Protection Agency used to rely on estimates to determine how much trash was being sent to landfills. in 2013, waste sent to landfills rose to 294 million tons. With 316 million people, that comes to 1,871 pounds per person in that year, the last for which there are figures.

Jon Powell at Yale’s Center for Industrial Ecology said the amount is different because of the way his team calculated it: Adding up actual measurements instead of estimates based on what businesses told government indirectly. The EPA partially funded the study.

Three outside experts said they trust the Yale numbers more than the EPA’s. However, Thomas Kinnaman, a Bucknell University professor who studies the economics of solid waste and recycling, added the findings don’t matter much, because landfills have plenty of room to expand. Powell found that for every year’s worth of trash filled on average in the United States, landfills add 2.7 years’ worth of capacity.

If Powell’s data is correct,

ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE

Americans aren’t recycling as much as authorities thought.

EPA estimated that Americans recycled 34.5 percent of their waste in 2012, but if the amount of trash matches Powell calculation, the recycling rate would be 21.4 percent.

But the data may not match up well, Powell cautioned.

Americans don’t seem to generate more trash than other cultures, Bucknell’s Kinnaman said. And not all of the waste is from homes. Powell said a sampling, which may not be representative nationally, showed that 12.8 percent of the material that flowed into the landfill was construction and demolition debris.

Peanut boss gets 28 years for deaths The Washington Post Former peanut executive Stewart Parnell was sentenced Monday to 28 years in prison for his role in a nationwide salmonella outbreak that killed nine people and sickened hundreds more in 2008 and 2009.

Parnell, who for decades ran the Virginia-based Peanut Corporation of America, is likely to serve only several years of that sentence. Prosecutors had argued that he deserved life in prison for his crimes.

U.S. District Judge Louis Sands said such a sentence would be “inappropriate,” even as he said Parnell’s actions “were driven simply by the desire to profit and to protect profits ...

This is commonly and accurately referred to as greed.”

Monday’s sentencing

ACROSS THE U.S.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Stewart Parnell arrives at court in 2009.

hearing in a federal courthouse in Albany, Georgia, overflowed with emotion on both sides.

Families of victims poisoned by salmonella after eating

products from Parnell’s company urged a judge to impose the stiffest possible sentence.

Jacob Hurley, only 3 when he got seriously ill after eating peanut butter crackers, said it would be OK with him for Parnell “to spend the rest of his life in prison.” Jeff Almer, whose 72-year-old mother died as a result of the outbreak, felt the same. “You took my mom,” he told Parnell.

Others showed up to defend Parnell’s character.

Toward the end of Monday’s hearing, Parnell himself spoke in court.

“First I want to apologize to all of our consumers,” he said adding the he was “truly sorry” for the unsanitary conditions at the company’s Georgia plant that led to the outbreak and the massive recall that followed.

Parnell also addressed victims

and family members of victims, saying “I think about you guys every day.”

Parnell’s attorneys said he never had intended to harm anyone by his actions, careless as they might have been. They asked that the judge factor in that lack of intent when considering his sentence.

Seattle food safety lawyer Bill Marler, who has followed the case closely and filed numerous suits against the company, said the fact that Parnell was prosecuted at all represents a victory for consumers and should serve as a deterrent to other executives.

“Although his sentence is less than the maximum, it is the longest sentence ever in a food poisoning case,” Marler said. “This sentence is going to send a stiff, cold wind through board rooms across the U.S.”

Nearly a quarter of undergraduate women surveyed at more than two dozen universities say they experienced unwanted sexual contact sometime during college, according to a report released Monday. The results of the Association of American Universities Campus Climate Survey come at a time of heightened scrutiny of the nation’s colleges and universities and what they are doing to combat sexual assault. About 150,000 participated in the online questionnaire. The results were generally in line with past surveys on sexual assault and misconduct on college campuses.

AROUND THE WORLD Israel: Russian air pact Israel and Russia agreed Monday to set up a mechanism to avoid inadvertent confrontations between their air forces over Syria in the latest measure of the growing complexity of the crisis in Syria. The accord reached in Moscow between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Russian President Vladimir Putin came as the Kremlin’s military buildup in the war-torn country showed no sign of slackening. At least two dozen Russian aircraft capable of supporting Syrian army ground operation arrived in Syria over the weekend.

Burkina Faso: Tanks move Dozens of tanks were seen moving Monday toward the capital, Ouagadougou, as the army said it had decided to put an end to a coup by the presidential guard. Witnesses said the tanks were coming from army bases in other parts of the country. An army communique called on the presidential guard to lay down its arms, promising that its members would not be harmed. The army has decided to “liberate the Burkinabe people,” a local radio station reported.

Germany: Nazi SS trial Prosecutors said they’ve charged a 91-year-old woman with 260,000 counts of accessory to murder on allegations she was a member of the Nazi SS who served in the Auschwitz death camp complex. A Schleswig-Holstein prosecutors’ spokesman said Monday the woman is alleged to have served as a radio operator for the commandant from April to July 1944. Prosecutors said she can be charged as an accessory because she helped the camp function.

VW rocked by emissions scandal The company has “broken the trust of our customers and the public,” chief executive says.

Associated Press BERLIN — Volkswagen’s chief executive was under withering pressure Monday as an emissions-testing scandal erased more than $15 billion from the company’s market value in a single trading session.

The stock plunge followed

revelations that the German carmaker had rigged U.S. emissions tests for about 500,000 diesel cars. VW CEO Martin Winterkorn apologized, acknowledging that his company had “broken the trust of our customers and the public.”

But saying sorry wasn’t enough for investors digesting the financial and reputational implications of the scandal on the world’s topselling carmaker.

Volkswagen’s share price plunged a stunning 17.1 percent Monday in the first trading since the U.S. Environmental

Protection Agency announced the violations, reaching a near three-year low of 133.70 euros, after tumbling more than 20 percent earlier in the day.

VW has halted U.S. sales of the affected vehicles and pledged to cooperate with regulators in an investigation that could potentially lead to $18 billion in fines against the company.

This case also could test the U.S. Justice Department’s initiative, announced Sept. 9, to hold individual executives accountable for corporate wrongdoing.

“We will be working closely

with DOJ throughout this investigation,” EPA spokeswoman Liz Purchia said. Separately, a VW official confirmed that the Justice Department has contacted the company about the case.

The EPA warned VW that it may refer the case to Justice for enforcement, and noted that in addition to corporate fines of up to $37,500 per vehicle, individuals could be fined $3,750 per violation of the Clean Air Act, which could theoretically add up to $1.9 billion, given that half a See DIESEL, Page A8

Budget threatens tanker A funding impasse in Congress “puts everything at risk” for the Boeing-made KC-46s, Sen. Patty Murray says.

The News Tribune

MATT YORK / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Employees walk past retired Boeing KC-135R Stratotankers on May 14 at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Tucson, Arizona. The Arizona “boneyard” is the world’s largest aircraft storage and preservation facility.

it’s considered favorable to the Air Force because of hard caps on spending that the company agreed to during the decade long competition. That deal has Boeing eating cost overruns, which Air Force officials estimate top $1.2 billion so far.

Breaking the contract could mean going back to the negotiating table with a weaker hand, Murray said.

“The real effect is the Air Force would break the contract and that means more expense to the Air Force and to taxpayers,” she said.

Members of Washington’s congressional delegation recently have warned that a government shutdown could fall later this year. Republicans and Democrats have been sparring over funding for Planned Parenthood, whether

to lift the forced federal spending cuts known as sequestration and how to pay for the defense budget.

Another option that Congress could choose is passing a shortterm deal to keep the government running after Oct. 1. Such an agreement would not harm civilians who work for the military or the plan to purchase new Air Force tankers. It would delay decisions that would impact both the military’s workforce and the Air Force’s procurement of new jets.

Six military and defense industry advocacy groups sent letters last week to leading lawmakers pleading for a comprehensive budget deal that would allow the Pentagon to create a dependable budget. The letter warned that

the kind of fix that would restrict KC-46 production also would ripple out across the services and cut other programs.

“Please come together again in a bipartisan fashion and strike a multiyear budget deal that will create stability and efficiency in our spending,” said a letter signed by officials from lobbying groups for the Air Force, Navy, National Guard and three defense industry groups.

Boeing has been flying a test plane similar to the KC-46 at Boeing Field south of Seattle since May. Next Friday, Boeing is expected to fly an actual KC-46 for the first time, the Air Force announced last week.

Time is a financial gift that kids shouldn’t waste

eople are always trying to find the secret to financial success. But I’d like to address the young folks who ask me how to get rich.

If you’re young, you have something we older folks will never have as much of — time.

It’s an advantage you shouldn’t waste.

Start saving in your 20s, and you’ll have time for your money to grow. You’ll have time to enjoy the fruits of compound interest.

You’ll have time to weather stockmarket volatility. The earlier you start saving, the less you’ll have to save over time.

U.S. airlines have best profits since 2007 Lower fuel costs and steady travel demand continue to boost U.S. airlines, which enjoyed the most profitable quarter since 2007. Commercial airlines reported net income of $5.5 billion for the three months that ended in June, a 53 percent increase over the same period last year, according to financial data released Monday by the U.S. Department of Transportation. That’s the highest net income since the carriers collected $5.9 billion in the same period in 2007.

The most profitable airline in the second quarter was Delta Air Lines, with net income of $1.5 billion, up nearly 85 percent compared with the same period last year, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.

By Adam Ashton The latest budget impasse in Congress has civilian workers at Joint Base Lewis-McChord bracing for a possible government shutdown and the Air Force raising an alarm about a threat to a $51 billion tanker program Boeing is developing in the Puget Sound region.

The Air Force’s plan to field new Boeing-made KC-46 refueling tankers would take a serious blow if Congress keeps the government running for a year at restricted levels based on 2015 spending.

That kind of agreement, called a long-term continuing resolution, is an option that’s reported to be on the table among senior Republican lawmakers.

It also would slash the number of tankers Boeing must deliver in the next two years and effectively break the Air Force’s contract with the company, Air Force officials told lawmakers last week.

“It puts everything at risk,” said Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., who met with Secretary of the Air Force Deborah Lee James last week. “From a military standpoint, we need to have tankers that are safe and reliable.”

The Obama administration’s original 2016 budget request included $2.4 billion to buy 12 KC-46 jets from Boeing.

Boeing’s contract, awarded in 2011, was the result of a hardwon fight against European rival EADS. Though expensive,

overburdened with debt that they feel they can’t afford to save.

The nonprofit Investor Protection Institute did an online poll of more than 1,000 millennials and not surprisingly found that 49 percent had student loans — including 13 percent with $50,000 or more in college debt.

But it was this statistic that is especially troubling: 34 percent of those surveyed said that their debt is delaying their ability to start saving for retirement or that they haven’t been able to save as much as they had hoped. Don Blandin, president and chief executive of the IPI, said the survey results should help reinforce advice often given to young adults to save as early as possible.

Then he thought of the audience and said, “No, wait, guess that would be we sound like a damaged vinyl that is back in style. But what we want to do is help them learn that it’s so important to start early.”

Apple Inc. has removed some applications from its App Store after developers in China were tricked into using software tools that added malicious code in an unusual security breach. Apple gave no details of which companies were affected. But Tencent Ltd. said its popular WeChat app was affected and the company released a new version after spotting the malicious code. Chinese news reports said others affected included banks, an airline and a popular music service. The malicious code spread through a counterfeit version of Apple’s Xcode tools used to create apps for its iPhones and iPads, according to the company.

Photo printing market declines Photography is more popular than ever thanks to smartphones. But Walgreens and other retailers that offer low-cost photos confront a hard reality in the Internet age: Americans are printing fewer of their digital memories. An estimated 12.3 billion 4-by-6 photos will be printed in 2015, down from 15.2 billion in 2011, according to InfoTrends, a Boston-based market research firm for the digital media industries. The firm expects the print market to decline 3 percent a year through 2019.

Some people just don’t print photos — or stopped printing them — because they share them on Facebook, Instagram and other social media.

Macy’s plans holiday hiring Macy’s Inc. plans to hire about 85,000 seasonal workers for temporary jobs ahead of the holidays to meet expected higher demand.

That is about the same as a year ago. The positions will be filled at Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s stores, call centers, distribution centers and online fulfillment centers nationwide. Specifically, about 12,000 of the 85,000 total seasonal positions will be based in direct-to-consumer fulfillment facilities that support sales generated by the company’s omnichannel business strategy.

Clarify new law on cannabis offense that previous to the passage of Senate Bill 5052 earlier this year, would have been a misdemeanor with a maximum sentence of 90 days in jail.

Depending on who you talk to among those involved in writing and approving the legislation, the result was intended, unintended, or not even what’s actually outlined in the legislation.

At least one legislator, Sen. Ann Rivers, R-La Center, said the felony charge was the intention, the Associated Press reported, a tougher penalty designed to discourage the use of marijuana by minors at a time when cannabis was being made more accessible to adults. The only exception in the law for minors was for use of medical marijuana with the consent of parent or guardian and the minor’s doctor.

But a spokeswoman for

Gov. Jay Inslee said Friday that saddling minors with felony records for marijuana possession wasn’t the governor’s intention as he worked with lawmakers. Keeping marijuana out of the hands of minors was a priority, “but there are other ways of doing that without charging them with felonies,” Inslee spokeswoman Jaime Smith, told the Associated Press.

The confusion crops up in the exceptions the legislation makes, as was pointed out by reason.com’s Hit & Run blog: SB 5052 makes it unlawful for those under 21 to possess, manufacture, sell or distribute marijuana, and does list it as a class C felony, but it makes an exception under existing law to consider possession under 40 grams — about 1.4 ounces — a misdemeanor.

With that clarification and after consulting with the Washington Association of

Prosecuting Attorneys, Asotin County Prosecutor Ben Nichols told the Lewiston Tribune in neighboring Lewiston, Idaho, that he planned to amend the three teens’ charges to misdemeanors.

But that leaves us with an apparent disagreement among lawmakers and the governor’s office as to what was intended and with legislation that should be clarified to avoid the potential for other minors to be charged with a felony for simple possession of a small amount of marijuana.

We don’t want minors using cannabis, any more than we want them to be drinking alcohol. The current maximum penalty for underage drinking is up to two months in jail and a $500 fine. That would seem to be enough of a consequence to discourage underage use of marijuana without needlessly burdening youths with a felony record.

What an absolute thrill I had when I unrolled my paper this morning and saw Art Thiel on the Sports front page! Before moving to Everett over 20 years ago I was a lifelong P-I girl. I had all of my favorite reporters and features. Art Thiel was one of those. He can be counted on to tell a good story and make any sporting event feel as though you are there.

His Seahawks commentary on KZOK is a testament to that.

I so enjoy my morning Herald, and will now enjoy it even more. Welcome to Everett, Mr. Thiel. I’m so looking forward to spending my morning with you and my other favorite Herald writers.

The editorial, “Taking the path to shutdown” made my blood boil. Regardless of how you feel about abortion, regulation, or social services (not wanting to get into that debate) our politicians appear to handle these issues straight out of “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.”

My thinking merely symbolic of their decision making.

I consider myself an average citizen. A job since I was 14, some education, and smart enough to manage my life successfully — average. But since I’ve been a kid from the 70s, I’ve witnessed our politics degrade into the most ridiculous and hopeless institution of our nation.

Politicians appear to have little interest in “the people” and more interest in “the money.” They appear to be psychopathic, greedy, dysfunctional yahoos who aren’t worth voting on, Democrat or Republican.

I know I’m being an armchair critic here, but the thing is, I’m worried about the future of our country. We have serious issues to deal with in the hands of people that seem least capable of dealing with them. All I see from the perspective of this under-educated, not so stupid, average citizen is that all of us are spiraling into this abyss that, so far, no one has stepped up to change the direction of. From my perspective this can’t end well. I just hope it doesn’t all implode in my lifetime.

Maybe we should all vote for “The Donald”. How much worse can it get. At least he’s amusing. I’ll laugh myself all the way to my refrigerator box.

Living in an “old school” household (some will argue “just old”) where the “printed” word is still appreciated and the morning newspaper (OK — sports and comics; what else is there?) is a ritual — ink on my fingertips and the smell of print in the morning reminds me of ....

Anyway, it pleases me no end to read Art Thiel has been added to your newspaper.

We appreciate a newspaper’s view on the world and subscribe to the Everett Herald because we value the editorial content. Newspapers are not the same. The news is the same; however, the presentation, the “slant” varies greatly. (Hello folks, Fox News is not news. It’s propaganda with a conservative slant of idiocy.) Adding Art Thiel as a sports columnist re-affirms our selection of the Everett Herald and want you to know that we have ties to his columns from his Seattle P-I days. (Gasp!)

Last century is all we’ll admit to.

Art’s take on sports will enrich sports readers with his diverse knowledge and perspectives. We may not always agree; however, we sports readers will look forward to his insights. I know I do. He’s one of the best sports/editorial type columnists around and recall fondly meeting Art at a PTA meeting (Arrowhead Elementary) lo these many years ago!

I’ll look forward to his ink on my fingers frequently in the future. Welcome Art, we love ya, man!

Now, about those comic strip selections ....

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■I-405 HOV LANES

Claims by DOT can’t be believed The letter in Sunday’s Herald from the gentleman representing DOT and extolling the “partnership with the State Patrol” was in my opinion, pure fabrication. (“DOT worked closely with WSP.”) The coming toll lane disaster has nothing to do with the management of solutions for our congested roadways. This is simply a grand plan to extract even more money from taxpayers and disguise it as traffic management.

I do not believe the letter writer at all. The inability of DOT is far too well documented.

I have no reason to disbelieve the commentary written by Jeff Merrill, “Problems ahead for I-405 HOV toll lanes,” and many reasons not to believe DOT. Credibility is earned not declared.

Fender-benders now good to go Will be interesting to see how many fender-benders are caused by HOV Good-to-Go Lane drivers trying to exit the Woodinville and I-5 north exits by crossing two or three lanes.

■■DUI

Impound car when stopped For a long time, as disgusted as I get with the number of drunk drivers, I have not written with my suggestion about how to deal with this problem.

We need to get these people out of cars, and the only way I see for that to happen is to impound their cars, when first stopped. I wish someone would draft a new law.

First offense, impound their car for at least a week. Second offense, for at least a month, and increase the penalty for repeat offenders. And this would apply to whoever’s car they were driving. Higher penalties in case of DUIs causing property damage, and even more harsh in cases causing personal injuries. If a license is suspended, the car driven will be forfeit. Even if it is someone else’s car. Who will loan a car to a DUI offender? In the case of a stolen car, that should automatically bring license

revocation, as well as other provided penalties.

Another aspect has to do with insurance. We have a problem with uninsured drivers. I don’t understand how in this digital age, we can’t require proof of insurance for a driver to get a license, and even to renew a car license. Let’s get serious about stopping the carnage.

IN OUR VIEW | Underage marijuana use

Confusion over language in the recent rewrite of the state’s medical marijuana laws may have made possession of a small amount of marijuana by minors a felony punishable by up to five years in jail and a $10,000 fine.

That’s a heavy punishment, the significance of which seemed to escape most when the bill was passed and signed into law by the governor in April. A felony charge prevents the possibility for any diversion programs usually available to juveniles. A felony conviction for a minor means a permanent mark on his or her record that would make it exceedingly difficult to find work or get a student loan for college.

Last week, the prosecutor in Asotin County in Washington’s southeast corner charged three teens, 14, 15 and 17, with felonies for possession of marijuana, an

Anti-Muslim rhetoric would appall founders

T

he founders of this nation recognized Islam as one of the world’s great faiths. Incredibly and disgracefully, much of today’s Republican Party disagrees.

Thomas Jefferson, whose wellworn copy of the Quran is in the Library of Congress, fought to ensure that EUGENE ROBINSON the American concept of religious freedom encompassed Islam.

John Adams wrote that Muhammad was a “sober inquirer after truth.” Benjamin Franklin asserted that even a Muslim missionary sent by “the Mufti of Constantinople” would find there was “a pulpit at his service” in this country.

Indeed, the Constitution states that “no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.” Some of the GOP candidates for president, however, simply do not care.

Ben Carson said Sunday that he believes Islam to be inconsistent with the Constitution and therefore he could not support a Muslim candidate for president. “I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation,” he told NBC’s Chuck Todd. “I absolutely would not agree with that.”

Carson is dead wrong, but at least he seems sincere about it. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said he could only support a Muslim candidate “who will respect the Judeo-Christian heritage of America.” Sen. Rand Paul said a president’s faith should be irrelevant, but he understood many people felt otherwise because “we were attacked by people who were all Muslim.”

And front-runner Donald Trump, when asked about the possibility of a Muslim president, wisecracked, “Some people have said it already happened” — a reference to oft-repeated lies about President Obama’s faith.

I was ready to offer rare praise for Sen. Ted Cruz, who rejected Carson’s outrageous view by pointing to the Constitution’s prohibition against religious tests.

But then Cruz went on to say the United States should accept Christian refugees from the Syrian civil war but not Muslims, who might, after all, be terrorists.

There is an ugly undercurrent of antiMuslim bigotry in this country, and the Republican Party panders to it in a way that the Democratic Party does not.

This rancid sentiment was on display at Trump’s town hall meeting in New Hampshire last week, at which a questioner began by stating a premise: “We have a problem in this country, it’s called Muslims. We know our current president is one. You know he’s not even an American.”

The man went on to say that these problematic Muslims “have training camps growing where they want to kill us.

That’s my question, when can we get rid of them?”

Trump should have showed some backbone and told the man his worldview was based on paranoid fantasy. Instead, he made vague noises of agreement, or at least non-disagreement — “A lot of people are saying that. ... We’re going to be looking at that and plenty of other things” — which kicked off a round of criticism from his campaign rivals.

But where were these high-minded, allembracing Republicans when their party became a refuge for extremists spouting the worst kind of anti-Muslim rhetoric?

After the 9/11 attacks, George W. Bush did an admirable and important thing: He made clear that blame for the atrocity should not be ascribed to Islam itself but rather to a small group of radical fundamentalists.

Going forward, however, his administration was neither specific enough nor consistent enough about culpability for the terrorist strike. Warmongers found it politically useful to suggest involvement by Iraq, which had nothing to do with the attacks.

Meanwhile, officials downplayed the fact that most of the attackers came from Saudi Arabia, considered a valuable ally.

This fuzziness, I believe, helped give some Americans the impression that the United States was at war not with small and vicious bands of jihadists but with Muslims more broadly. Democrats almost invariably pushed back against this dangerous misimpression. Republicans far too often did not.

On the campaign trail, GOP candidates are touting their own Christian faith in what can only be described as a literal attempt to be holier than thou. They should reread the Constitution, which says “no religious test” — not “only the religious test that I can pass.”

DaVita has 65,000 employees. It began as a company providing kidney dialysis and now operates 2,210 outpatient dialysis centers nationally.

Big expansion came in 2012 when DaVita paid $4.42 billion for the physician group HealthCare Partners, in what The Wall Street Journal characterized as part of a trend of large health care organizations providing multiple services to patients while managing costs.

Bloomberg Business reported that DaVita, a publicly traded company, had more than $11 billion in revenue last year. On Monday its stock-market capitalization was more than $16 billion.

past several years, Snohomish County’s three independent hospitals — in Edmonds, Monroe and Arlington — joined with larger health-care organizations. Two of the largest health care organizations in the Puget Sound region, former rivals Swedish Health Services and Providence Health & Services, in 2011 announced plans to join forces. At the time, their combined revenue was $3.4 billion.

Cooper said his organization didn’t make the move under financial pressure. “Our profitability notched up a bit this year over last year,” he said.

Rather, consideration of joining another organization came as the clinic developed a five-year business plan.

“We believe there’s an opportunity for The Everett Clinic to double in size by 2020,” he said. That includes moving into new markets, such as Shoreline and Mountlake Terrace, and expanding in areas it now serves.

“I’m not even talking about other markets we’re considering,” he said. “This is the first wave.”

One of the first steps in the expansion plan, he said, is building a new clinic on the former Emery’s Garden site on 164th Street SW in Lynnwood.

What’s envisioned are services similar to those now offered at the Smokey Point office. The $24.6 million, 60,000-squarefoot building there, The Everett Clinic’s largest satellite office, opened in 2012. Cooper said details of a new satellite office in Lynnwood will be announced later.

“Given our ambitious business goals, it would be very challenging for us to be successful going it alone,” Cooper said.

Marcy Shimada, chief executive of Edmonds Family Medicine, said competing clinics may have expansion plans of their own. UW Medicine already has a clinic on 205th Street in Shoreline.

“I wouldn’t be surprised if they come in there in a big way,” she said.

Demand for health care will increase, both as the population grows in Snohomish County and with the aging baby boomer population. “The medical landscape right around us will change in the next couple of years with the largest systems feeling like they need their own presence here,” Shimada said.

The Everett Clinic’s proposed merger is expected to be reviewed by the Federal Trade Commission to see if it raises antitrust issues. The state Department of Health might take a look as well to see if any additional licenses are needed.

The Everett Clinic initially had proposals from about 16 businesses on how they might work together. That was later narrowed to three national and regional organizations.

More problems at state’s first charter school

By Donna Gordon Blankinship Associated Press

SEATTLE — The state auditor has found sloppy bookkeeping, cash flow problems and a host of other issues at Washington’s first charter school.

The report comes on the same day that the Washington Supreme Court said it will allow more time to file a motion asking the justices to reconsider or clarify their recent ruling that the voter-approved law allowing charter schools in the state is unconstitutional.

In the report issued Monday, the auditor says First Place Scholars needs to do a much better job of following state laws and tracking how taxpayer dollars are spent. The audit

was requested by the charter commission, which has been tracking problems at the school since it opened its doors in fall 2014.

The audit is just the latest in a series of challenges for charter schools in Washington state.

Acting State Auditor Jan Jutte says most of the problems at First Place were related to inexperience in following state laws. But some were deeper financial problems.

Jutte characterized the problems as sloppiness, but said they were not unusual for a startup organization.

Among the problems identified, included: Teachers without proper certification at the beginning of the school year.

Inadequate record keeping on revenues and expenditures.

Confusion over what money was spent by the school and what was spent by the nonprofit that supports the school and whether the charter school used public dollars for nonprofit expenses.

Cheryl Thresher, the schools program auditor manager, saw evidence that the school didn’t understand some state rules.

“They weren’t aware of some of the responsibilities that went with receiving public funding,” Thresher said.

A call to First Place asking for comment on the audit was not immediately returned Monday.

Eight more charter schools opened their doors this fall. Jutte said the lessons learned by First Place could help the other schools.

The audit was completed before the Washington Supreme Court decided Sept. 4 the voter-approved charter school law is unconstitutional.

It’s funny to see people’s expressions. Like, ‘How old is your baby?’ Or, ‘Is that real?’

the chat

— Ashley Berry, daughter of doll artist Laura Berry

Laura Berry holds Kyle, a realistic reborn doll she made at her home in Marysville. She has made close to 40 dolls over the past two years. Some are custom made to look like babies.

Labor of love

Marysville woman crafts realistic dolls as part of growing trend

N

ap time is over for the ruddy-cheeked infant.

Laura Berry picks up baby Kyle from his bouncy chair. His chubby arm stretches as she cradles his body and covers his tiny, curled toes with a blanket.

She puts a pacifier in his mouth and smooths his wispy hair.

“Everyone loves Kyle,” she says, adoringly.

Want him? He’s up for grabs on eBay. “He has to go. He can’t stay here forever,” Berry said. “He needs a new mom.”

He’s not her flesh and blood, he’s her craft.

The Marysville doll artist crafted him from a kit. His perfect skin comes from being baked numerous times in the oven to set the paint, his hair from repeated pricks into his scalp with a sewing needle.

Berry, 43, is part of the craze for “reborn” dolls that resemble a human baby as much as possible. It’s a realm where make-believe toys take on real identities. Berry even hand signs a birth certificate for her dolls.

It can be loosely compared to using a model kit to make a car. Reborn doll crafters assemble, paint and accessorize doll forms and parts made by sculptors using molds or live body scans.

The result are dolls that look and feel so real it’s freaky. We’re talking blue veins, mottled complexion, blistered lips, floppy necks, runny noses and beating hearts.

Berry’s dolls, selling for $200 to $500, come with a warning not to leave the baby unattended in public. Recently in California, bystanders busted windows in a parked car to rescue a reborn doll in a car seat on a hot day.

Custom orders are the mainstay of Berry’s home business, Forever Angels Reborn Dolls. An online search found a few other reborn doll vendors in Snohomish County.

Buyers include mothers who have lost babies “and are memorializing them in some way,” Berry said. “Some are doll collectors or moms of grown kids. You get a baby fix.”

Berry got started four years ago when, intrigued by the realness of the dolls and sentimental that her kids were no longer babies, she ordered a reborn doll. It arrived with a defective magnet inside the mouth to latch a pacifier. The seller gave her instructions how to repair it.

“She walked me through how to reassemble and fix it,” Berry said, “and it dawned on me that I could do this.”

The stay-at-home mom has plenty of company while her husband Mark is at work at Boeing and her two real kids, Ryan, 10, and Ashley, 12, are at school.

WHAT’S UP WITH THAT

BY ANDREA BROWN More: www.heraldnet.com/ whatsup.

Ideas? abrown@heraldnet.com, 425-339-3443 shared by three snoozing baby girls, strollers at the ready. A work desk is splayed with infant body parts.

“This is for a lady who lost her child who would be 9 years old,” she said of a work in progress.

She uses a kit that best matches the features from the pictures of the baby.

Drawers hold components and stuffing.

“I try to give them the weight of a real baby. I put them on the scale and weigh them,” Berry said.

Babies can come anatomically correct, baby powder scented, whatever the customer wants.

Clothes are the finishing touch.

“I take them to the mall when I’m looking for outfits. I like to find the right outfit,” Berry said.

Her daughter, Ashley, takes it in stride.

“It’s funny to see people’s expressions,”

Ashley said. “Like, ‘How old is your baby?’

Or, ‘Is that real?’ ” She doesn’t flinch when her mom pulls a tray of baby body parts from the oven.

The heat bakes on the layers of the paint to enhance skin tones and details; a doll might require 20 trips to the oven.

“At first it was kind of creepy, but I kind of got used to it. I’m like ‘whatever,’ ” Ashley said. “It is kind of cool because it is almost like real, like, ‘Whoa!’ ” She warns her friends about her mom’s peculiar nursery before they come to her house the first time.

The handiwork isn’t limited to infants.

“Now she’s making one that looks exactly like me when I was a toddler,” Ashley said.

Berry plans to make a dolls of her son as a baby.

Creating the dolls is a tedious, hands-on process.

“I start off with the veins and then I do the skin then the mottling and the blush colors and the tiny fingernails, then the hair,” Berry said. “The hardest part of doing the doll is the hair. It is micro-rooted with a small needle, strand-by-strand.”

She tells about the time she was doing the hair on a doll’s finished head at her son’s taekwondo class at the YMCA. “This lady had this horrific look on her face. It’s too much realism to be poking needles in babies’ heads in public, so now I keep it at home,” she said.

Her husband pitches in as needed. “He helps me drill the noses open,” she said.

“That to me is more disturbing than anything. The other day we were doing one and I had to walk away, but it’s part of the process.”

Berry takes the dolls to retirement centers for residents to hold.

“They tell me about their kids and what it was like when they were a baby,” she said.

“I’ve gotten in trouble from some of the elderly people who say, ‘How dare you bring this baby in here, they’re going to get a cold or sick.’ ” Berry, a former Air Force Reservist, grew up in a house with a different genre of dolls.

“My mother was a ventriloquist,” she said.

“She had a custom dummy made to look like her.”

Berry doesn’t plan to make replicas of adults. She limits it to little ones.

“I don’t want people to have the perception I’m the freaky doll lady,” she said.

“These are pieces of art and made with love.”

Hume, 83, founder of Ed Hume Seeds, has been pulling weeds and sowing seeds in front of a camera since 1962. He has hosted the TV show, “Gardening in America,” for 50 years.

His wife, Myrna, and their sons, Jeff and James, were born in Everett. His first gardening columns were in The Herald almost 50 years ago. Hume received the Gold Circle induction into the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences and was inducted into the Garden Writers Association’s Hall of Fame. More at www.humeseeds.com.

He will give a free talk, “Things I Have Learned in 65 Years of Gardening,” at 10 a.m. Sept. 26, at the VOA Building, 16300 Motor Place, Lynnwood.

What are you wearing?

I wish my answer could be Speedos. But, my favorites are 527 Low Butt jeans and a long sleeve shirt with the sleeves rolled up.

If you could share a garden with anyone in history who would it be?

Mahatma Gandhi. After his fast, I would want him to have fresh food from the garden.

Favorite flower?

One of my favorites is the Washington state flower, the rhododendron, because it comes in various growing sizes, shapes, flower colors and leaf textures.

People would be shocked to know ...

I am 83 years old and still work 40 hours a week and love what I do.

Funniest or craziest thing anybody ever said to you?

In front of my wife a TV viewer came up to us and in a sexy voice said: I have coffee in bed with you every Sunday morning.

(Of course, my TV show aired Sundays.)

Most proud moment: 57 years ago when I asked Myrna to marry me ... and she said yes!

One thing you (and others) wish you’d stop saying?

I get teased all the time about mentioning the plant “Dusty Miller” too often. One lady wrote me and said: “If you mention Dusty Miller again this Sunday I will never watch your show again.”

Pet peeve: Trying to keep moles and voles out of the lawn.

Guilty pleasure: Occasionally going to casinos to see the shows and do a little gaming.

Do people ever get you mixed up with Ciscoe?

Yes, all the time because we both are so handsome, are the same height, the same age and we have the same amount of hair.

The only difference is he talks faster then me.

You have visited many countries. Got any favorites?

For 35 year we took Northwesterners — including a few Herald readers — on tours to about 80 different countries. Must admit we love this area the most, but have also really enjoyed the South Pacific, countries of New Zealand, Fiji and Australia.

— Andrea Brown, Herald writer Do you know someone we should get to know better?

Woman wants to savor time left with dying sister

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Dear Carolyn: My dear younger sister has a fatal condition, a 50 percent chance to be alive in one year and a 99 percent chance to be dead within five. She still has a realistic, positive, great attitude.

Me, I’m a puddle of tears. Please help me get through my remaining time with her and actually enjoy it, instead of crying. On one hand, I want my “pre-grief” to last a long time, which would mean my sister is still alive; on the other hand, it’s “killing” me. (She would laugh and say, “No, it’s killing me!”)

After she passes, I can give my grief all the time it will need, but right now, I want to put my “pregrief” aside. I am impatient to get around this and back to enjoying my time with her.

— Family Oh. I’m sorry.

Your impatience “to get around this” implies that grief is an obstacle in your path to be removed. It’s not. It is your path now, one that will feel overwhelming and impossible at some times and manageable, even comforting at others. The progression isn’t linear either: You will think you’re through the worst, then get hit with huge sobs over some trigger

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT you were able to shrug off only yesterday. It’s just the way it is.

I lived this during my mother’s terminal illness, and still do after her death. To get through this difficult phase you’re in now — where you want to savor every moment with someone just as your ability to enjoy anything has gone AWOL — I found places away from Mom to take my grief, and visited them frequently so I could focus on Mom when I saw her, versus on myself. One outlet was talking to a therapist weekly. Another was taking day- or overnight trips to see friends (selected for their restorative effect on me; I was not concerned with fairness). Another was exercising. Another was keeping in e-touch with friends who got it but weren’t within visiting range.

Re: Family: I wrote into your chat in 2014 about my stepfather’s terminal cancer. We knew that any moment Could Be It. I stayed home the first semester of college after his diagnosis to take care of my family — but also went back to graduate after that, then moved to another city, adopted a cat, got my first job, met my now-husband, adopted another cat. It felt like a roller coaster of good and bad, but life kept on moving in real time.

I grieved tremendously during the seven years I had with my dad, and it did not prepare me for when he passed, or for the grief that still sometimes reduces me to a blubbering mess at my desk on a Tuesday afternoon.

Spend time with your sister as those moments come. Be gentle with yourself, rest, enjoy what you can, and also give yourself permission to lie on the living room floor in your sweatpants if you just need to.

Woman in toxic relationship will need cousin’s support Dear Abby: I have a very close cousin (and friend) who is in a toxic relationship with a man who breaks up with her repeatedly, manipulates and abuses her emotionally, and probably cheats. It has made me sad to see her go through the same pattern with him for so many years.

They were supposed to be married soon, but are having the same problems again. She’s unsure what steps to take, even though family and friends are advising her against marrying him. I don’t support the idea either, but I don’t want to create a rift with my cousin.

If the wedding takes place, can I decline to be part of the wedding party?

Is there anything I can do to make her “see the light”? It’s hard to watch a good person go through this. I know it’s her choice, but it’s wearing on our relationship as well.

— Concerned Cousin In Wyoming Dear Cousin: Have you been asked to be in the wedding party? If it hasn’t happened yet, you may be putting the cart before the horse.

Because you haven’t been able to get your cousin to see the light before this, I doubt anything you can say will accomplish it now because love is blind and often deaf. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t tell her you think she deserves better than what she’s getting, and that it pains you to see her hurt the way she has been. However, at the same time, let her know that whatever she decides, you love and support her and will be there for her, because if he actually marries her — which he may not — she’s going to need it.

DEAR ABBY co-worker in particular has contributed to that. He’s a tall, handsome man with a great personality. We get along wonderfully, socialize outside of work, and we flirt ... a lot. We have briefly talked about being friends with benefits, but I’m not sure how I feel about it. I have never been FWB with anyone before, and I am very nervous about the possible downside.

I am very attracted to this co-worker, but I also consider him a great friend who could potentially someday be even more than a friend.

I am scared that being FWBs would ruin our friendship and any possible future we may have. Should I accept being an FWB and enjoy it while it lasts, or decline and explain to him why? — Friends Without Benefits In Virginia Dear Friends: If I were you, I’d enjoy the flirtation for as long as it lasts and pass on being his FWB. While “friends with benefits” may seem enticing, what it really stands for is “sex without commitment or responsibility,” and in the majority of instances it leads to — nothing. Couple that with the fact that if you do, and someone else attracts his attention, you will not only have to cope with hurt feelings, but also the embarrassment of still having to work with him. So start thinking with your head, and don’t do anything you might later regret.

Building the sci-fi world of ‘The Man in the High Castle’ — when America lost WWII Alyssa Rosenberg The Washington Post

Television showrunners are so fond of describing their settings as characters in series that it’s become something of a cliche. But in some cases, the way a television show sketches in a fictional world is just as important as the choice of lead actors or the writing staff’s faculties for pulling off nervy cliffhangers.

While it’s one thing to imagine the future, it’s another task entirely to try to rewrite the past.

That was the task before the executive producers of “The Man in the High Castle,� Amazon’s forthcoming adaptation of Dick’s alternate history about an America that lost World War II, and is occupied by Nazi forces on the East Coast and imperial Japan on the West Coast. “Obviously, we started with an alternative history that is in the novel.

And, then, honestly, the biggest challenge was finding the visual alternative history, and that was something the pilot director, David Semel, confronted, because we knew from the pilot on we were establishing the rules of this world and we needed to honor them however many years this show went forward,� executive producer Frank Spotnitz explained at the TCA press tour. “So that does come down to hairstyles, wardrobe, types of vehicles.

You know, there’s a very big shot of Times Square very early in the pilot episode. Well, what would Times Square look like if we didn’t live in a corporate capitalist society?

What would it look like if the Nazis had proceeded for another 17 years ruling the world? What would their values be? What would their commercial values be? Would there be cars with fins? Would you have a kind of space age optimism in the design of home appliances?�

Though Spotnitz and his colleagues were interested in the way American history and culture would have developed differently under occupation, the spirit of Dick’s novel suggests that some of the same developments might have taken place. “We even get in arguments about, well, you could question who, or what music may have resulted during that time under the authority of the Nazis or otherwise, but even music that you may agree could exist, might well have come into fruition earlier,� producer David Zucker said. “Should we be, well, orthodox about ‘Well, it wasn’t actually published until 1964 (when the show refers to a piece of pop culture.) Does that mean in our world, it couldn’t have been published sooner?’ So the debate sort of rages and gets quite specific. But I wouldn’t say you end up with consensus as much

as you end up with a certain affirmative comfort that everyone gets to when you come to these questions. But it’s deep dives you take.�

And pop culture has a larger effect on society.

If Elvis and the Beatles don’t happen, what about the rise of a rock-centric youth culture and the accompanying sexual and social changes that go along with it? Fashion and the prevailing environment play out in details as small as how the actors hold their bodies. “The physicality in a world in this world — I mean, this is a world that never existed in the past, like, especially in San Francisco. Like, we are deferential to the Japanese. Like, how to you greet a Japanese person on the street?� actor D.J. Qualls asked at the show’s panel. “Also, it’s, like, how do your arms work in a world that never existed in the past? It’s like your whole being, your physicality, changes.�

And while “The Man in the High Castle� is closely focused on the experience of a few characters, the richness of Dick’s world and the detail Spotnitz and his colleagues have added to it aid in the transition from a fairly short novel to a television show with no fixed endpoint. “This world is so enormous,� Spotnitz said of the possibilities of his alternate history. “You literally have the entire planet to tell stories.�

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Explore different options, but be secretive regarding your intentions. Try not to get into overly emotional discussions if you want to come out on top. Change is heading your way, and the manner in which you handle matters will determine how well you will do. Your numbers are 4, 10, 17, 21, 28, 37, 40.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t let emotions block your ability to get things done.

Share little, but listen to what’s being said. The information you acquire will be valuable at a later date. Put more into upgrading, updating and improving your appeal and social life. ★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Protect against injury and the challenges you aren’t yet ready to deal with. Put more time into preparation and expanding your knowledge and experience. Try to be clear about what you are and what you are not capable of doing. ★★★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Make alterations to the way you live. It’s important to put your personal affairs first and to nurture the relationships that are important to you. Don’t deny yourself a treat that will boost your confidence or your appearance. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Choose your words carefully. Emotions must not be allowed to take over, causing a rift between yourself and someone you love. Look for practical solutions and you will find a way to move forward. Don’t be afraid to do things differently. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Hold a discussion with someone who can offer you insight into a vocation or destination that you might like to experience. Do your best to bring about a change to your current position or location.

Romance is encouraged. ★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t get caught up in who does what or why. Look at what you

Chris Scanlon carries the team flag as the Kamiak football team takes the field for a game against Edmonds-Woodway at Edmonds Stadium earlier this season.

A Knight’s Tale

Chris Scanlon has a developmental disability, but that hasn’t stopped the 33-year-old from carrying Kamiak’s flag at the Knights’ football games and becoming an inspiration to the team’s coaches and players.

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

E

DMONDS — Like the Kamiak High School players and coaches, Chris Scanlon gets fired up for every Friday night football game. He has a job to do, and it is important to the team and its fans — not to mention Scanlon himself — that he does his job well.

Scanlon carries the purple Kamiak flag with the big white K at every football game, home and away. Clad in a purple Kamiak windbreaker and a purple hat, he leads the team onto the field before the opening kickoff and then again when the Knights return after halftime. He holds

the flag near the Kamiak bench during the game, and if the Knights score a touchdown he parades in front of the team’s cheering section.

“It’s pretty fun,” he said with a grin. The best part of carrying the flag “is helping the team,” he added. “And I love doing it.”

Though not a Kamiak graduate himself — the 33-year-old Scanlon attended Lynnwood High School, class of 2003 — he is an adopted member of the Knights family. His father, John Scanlon, knew someone whose son played for Kamiak back in 2000 and the boys became friends. It led to Chris Scanlon attending games, getting acquainted with the coaches and players, and then

about eight years ago becoming the team’s flag bearer.

Chris Scanlon has a developmental disability, but that matters little to the good people at Kamiak. As head coach Dan Mack explained, “He’s truly a legend in our football program. He comes to our games and to our events. There’s even been times he’s wanted to talk to the team, and at appropriate times I’ve had him give a one- or two-word pep talk.

“He is,” Mack added, “one of those kids you kind of fall in love with. He has a way of stealing your heart.”

Browning looks comfortable, confident Washington’s freshman quarterback has had back-to-back 300-yard passing games

By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

RENTON — Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, in assessing his team’s current situation, reached into his bag, pulled out his copy of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, then proceeded to repeat the famous sci-fi novel’s mantra: Don’t panic.

Carroll was pumping the brakes on the rising concern over Seattle’s 0-2 start to the season during his Monday press conference at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center.

Seattle’s 27-17 loss at Green Bay on Sunday night, coupled with the team’s opening day 34-31 overtime loss at St. Louis, means the two-time defending NFC champion Seahawks are 0-2 to start the season for the first time since 2011. That’s the last time the Seahawks failed to make the playoffs.

But Carroll emphasized there’s plenty of time for the Seahawks to recover.

“I’m not really concerned about that at all,” Carroll said about starting 0-2. “I’m concerned about See SEAHAWKS, Page C4

M’s Farquhar bounces back

MARINERS | Update

The News Tribune

Seattle at Kansas City, 5:10 p.m.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Don’t overlook reliever Danny Farquhar in the coming days when compiling the long list of what-ifs in the Seattle Mariners’ disappointing season.

Oh, Farquhar isn’t at the top, certainly.

There were bigger puzzles, such as Robinson Cano’s inexplicable six-week crash from late April to mid-June, a maddening lack of productivity with runners in scoring position and Fernando Rodney’s ruinous decline.

Mike Zunino’s regression.

Injuries to Hisashi Iwakuma, James Paxton and Charlie Furbush. And a lot more. It’s a long list.

But Farquhar might best exemplify these Mariners.

Like the club as a whole, he endured a miserable start amid heightened expectations and labored through a long stretch of inconsistency before putting it together in the closing weeks.

“I think there was an issue with my arm slot,” Farquhar said. “That’s what the consensus is. I’m just going to keep throwing from where I’m at right now.”

The “right now” shows Farquhar, 28, on a run of eight scoreless outings since his Sept.

7 recall from Triple-A Tacoma.

He has allowed one hit and one walk in 81⁄3 innings while registering 11 strikeouts.

“In my mind,” manager Lloyd McClendon said, “I think he’s back. It’s really nice to see. You try not to think about what-ifs.

It’s nice to see him throw the ball the way he’s capable of throwing the ball.”

It was that Farquhar who entered the season projected as one of the club’s top setup relievers.

He was former closer — 16-for-18 in save opportunities over the final two months in 2013 — who shifted roles last season, after the

Probable starting pitchers: M’s righthander Hisashi Iwakuma (8-4, 3.90) vs. right-hander Jeremy Guthrie (8-7, 5.55)

TV: ROOT (cable) Radio: ESPN (710 AM)

Hicks, Baron hit a combined .029 While former starting catcher Mike Zunino seeks to hone his swing in the Instructional League, his two rookie replacements continue to pile up outs.

John Hicks is 1-for-26 with one walk and 15 strikeouts in 11 games, while Steven Baron is hitless in nine at-bats in three games. That’s a combined 1-for-35 and an .029 average.

The news isn’t all bad, though.

Backup Jesus Sucre is perking up since gaining additional playing time. He was 2-for-4 with a sacrifice fly in Sunday’s 9-2 victory at Texas and is 8-for-35 (.235) in 14 games since Zunino’s Aug. 28 demotion.

STEPHEN BRASHEAR / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Reliever Danny Farquhar was shuttled beween Class AAA Tacoma and the Mariners four times this season.

Mariners acquired Rodney, and responded with a 2.66 ERA and 13 “holds” in 66 appearances.

That Farquhar was nowhere in evidence over the early weeks. He had a 6.46 ERA through 20 games when the Mariners optioned him on May 25 to Tacoma.

His key pitch, his cut fastball, wasn’t cutting. Farquhar, at the time, believed he was close to a fix — “I think I’m not too far off” — but the Mariners were already eight games out of first and their bullpen was a mess.

They needed help now.

“It’s hard for any pitcher to try to make adjustments here in the big leagues,” McClendon explained. “It gives Danny a chance to step back and work on the things he needs to work on.”

The move didn’t pay immediate dividends for the club or player. For Farquhar, it marked the start of a 15-week odyssey that saw him shuttled four times between Tacoma and the big leagues.

“It sucks, obviously, going up and down,” he admitted at one point, “but I’ve been in way

busy with various outside activities. He works as a courtesy clerk at an Edmonds grocery store and also at his father’s shop as a warehouse manager. He participates in Choices and Special Olympics, both programs for individuals with special needs.

He volunteers at civic events during the year, including the Edmonds Arts Fair, the Taste of Edmonds and the Wenatchee Youth Circus. He also attends North Sound Christian Church.

But his big thing in the fall is Kamiak football.

“He just loves the Kamiak Fighting Knights,” John Scanlon said. “He’s waiting for the season to start in April.

“I can’t even put into words what that program has meant to him. It’s just been huge. When he got involved in Special Olympics we noticed a big bump in

worse situations. You’ve just got to be mentally tough and deal with what happens.”

The pieces began to fall into place at Tacoma just after the All-Star break, when he put together a strong 10-game stretch that prompted another big-league recall.

Farquhar pitched well in four outings before an Aug. 22 clunker against the White Sox (four batters faced, none retired, three runs) resulted in another demotion to Tacoma.

That outing against Chicago now looks like an outlier. Farquhar hasn’t allowed a run since: five scoreless outings for the Rainiers before his current eight-game run in the big leagues.

He offers a simple explanation.

“I’m throwing my cutter for strikes,” Farquhar said.

“I’m locating it down, and in and out. It’s a huge key to my success.”

The Mariners are 12-7 in September. Their bullpen leads the majors in that span with a 1.74 ERA. It isn’t solely because of Farquhar, but ... what if?

his self-esteem almost immediately, and this is kind of right up there with that. He just feels like he belongs and that he’s part of the Kamiak family.”

Carrying the flag “has given Chris a chance to show the spirit that lives inside him,” said Rose Marie Scanlon, his mother. “He just lives for these games. He talks about it all through the week, about rooting his boys on.”

Still, his contributions come with a cost. Given his level of disability, it is difficult for Chris to run while carrying the flag. A neurologist told the family “that the energy it would take for one of us to run a tightrope, that’s the energy it takes Chris just to walk,” Rose Marie Scanlon said.

“So it’s no small thing. (Game nights) take a lot out of him. He’s exhausted for two days.

“But when he’s determined to do something, he gives it his all.

And it just shows how much he loves doing this and how much he loves people and that he’s

Updated odds The Mariners entered Monday’s open date at 73-77 with 12 games remaining.

They were six games behind Houston in the race for the American League’s final wild-card spot.

So the math isn’t good.

Baseball Prospectus and FanGraphs each rated the Mariners as having a 0.3 percent chance of reaching postseason.That’s three chances in 1,000. ESPN was less optimistic in giving them a 0.1 percent chance.

Short hops Felix Hernandez needs 41⁄3 more innings to reach 200 for an eighth straight year.

Jamie Moyer is the only other pitcher in club history with seven 200-inning seasons, but they weren’t consecutive. ... Hernandez needs 15 more strikeouts to reach 200 for a seventh straight year. Randy Johnson is the only other pitcher in club history to post seven 200-strikeout seasons, but they weren’t consecutive. ... Kyle Seager’s two doubles in Sunday’s 9-2 victory at Texas boosted his season total to 35, which matches a career high previously achieved in 2012…Ketel Marte has reached base safely at least twice in seven straight games and has a .467 on-base percentage in that span.

willing to pay that price.”

Indeed, he has fallen at times, suffering scrapes and bruises, and once a sprained ankle. But he always bounces back, much to the approval of the Kamiak players who have awarded him plaques over the years as “The Best Flag Carrier in Wesco.”

For the Scanlons there are other meaningful and sometimes heart-swelling moments.

At Marysville Pilchuck a few years ago, and as he waited for the team to emerge from the halftime locker room, Chris pitched in to help some women with the Tomahawk booster club carry items to a storage area.

After that game, John Scanlon said, “a security guard came walking toward me and asked, ‘Is that your son?’ And I’m (thinking), ‘Uh-oh, what’d he do now?’” But the guard explained Chris’ willingness to help and then concluded “by telling me, ‘You have the nicest young man I’ve ever met in my life.’”

Others would no doubt agree.

“Chris’ passion,” Mack said, “is inspiring to myself, my coaching staff and my team. It’s infectious in so many ways.

“Our kids just love him,” he went on. “And they need to see him. They need to be around people that have overcome obstacles in their lives. Because this young man has been down a road not many of us have, and it’s important for them to see the resilience he has and the love he displays to so many people and the joy he brings to a stadium or a locker room.

“I can almost get emotional talking about this kid,” Mack said. “He’s been an incredible blessing to me, the staff and the players of our program for so many years. We can lose and we can win, but his perspective is always the same. He’s happy and he’s thankful, and isn’t that what sports is all about? You compete, you do your best, you win with humility and you lose with grace. And in that way Chris is perfect for our program.”

Cougars will work during bye week

Hogs’ Bielema fires back at Kingsbury

HUSKIES | Notebook

By Jacob Thorpe

By Kurt Voigt

The Spokesman-Review

PULLMAN — Fans of Washington State football can take a break this week. The team has a bye week and that means next Saturday can be spent catching up on honey-do lists and cartoons.

Joe Fan can take a break. The Cougars, well they’ll be busy.

“We’ve got a lot of work to do, there’s no question,” head coach Mike Leach said. “I think the biggest thing is we’ve got to become more cohesive on all sides of the ball. Not so much on an individual level but playing together.”

While the WSU coaches will spend a few days during the week recruiting, the Cougars will also take advantage of the week to fit in some extra practices before facing their next opponent, California, in their Pac-12 opener.

Having a bye week is no guarantee that the team will improve significantly relative to the teams that will play this week. Last year, the Cougars had a bye week and were subsequently crushed by Arizona and Arizona State. In 2013, a bye week came prior to a game against ASU in which the visiting Sun Devils immediately took a big lead and cruised to a 55-21 win.

After that loss to ASU, the Cougars had another week off, however, and the extra preparation likely contributed to a 24-17 win at Arizona in their next game.

Dealing with injuries should not be a factor during the bye week.

While safety Isaac Dotson missed two practices last week and did not play against Wyoming, the extra week will be more about getting fresh than healing.

“We’re all pretty healthy” said linebacker Peyton Pelluer. “But we’re definitely going to use this bye to get into conference play 100 percent.”

There is also the possibility that the bye week will allow the first-year players whose playing time is steadily increasing to shore up their roles. Junior college transfer cornerback Treshon Broughton joined the team late and saw his first action Saturday. Safety Hunter Dale and defensive tackle Ngalu Tapa also made their on-field debuts against the Cowboys.

The Cougars will doubtlessly drill special teams this week and the defense still isn’t off the hook despite heading into the bye on a run of three shutout quarters. But the bye week will have been best spent if the team can overcome its propensity to play at a level similar to that of its opponent, regardless of who is standing on the opposing sideline.

“I think it’s more a mindset,” said linebacker Jeremiah Allison. “We don’t’ have any room to relax. I think we just ease off the gas pedal sometime. We can’t do that with any team, we don’t have room to ease off the gas pedal.”

Washington quarterback Jeff Lindquist fumbles the ball as he is tackled by Utah State’s Ricky Ali’ifua (left) and Kyler Fackrell in the second half of last Saturday’s game.

Lindquist has ‘unique role’

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE – Despite a fumble on Saturday that led to a Utah State touchdown, Washington Huskies head coach Chris Petersen said reserve quarterback Jeff Lindquist will continue to “have a unique role with us.”

The specifics of that role, however, are unclear.

Petersen didn’t rule out the possibility on Monday of continuing to use Lindquist as a runner in situational packages, despite the relative ineffectiveness of such plays during Saturday’s 31-17 victory.

The Huskies (2-1) host California (3-0) in their Pac-12 opener at 2 p.m. Saturday at Husky Stadium (Pac-12 Networks).

Lindquist carried seven times for 16 yards against Utah State, with a long of eight. But his five red-zone carries gained a total of just six yards, and his final carry, which came at the Utah State 1-yard line with UW leading 31-10 in the fourth quarter, resulted in a fumble and a 97-yard return for a touchdown by the Aggies. He has also yet to attempt a pass.

At 6-foot-3 and 245 pounds, Lindquist, a fourth-year junior, is indeed a unique option as a ballcarrier. He rushed 16 times last season for a net of 63 yards and two touchdowns, and Petersen has made it clear that he wants Lindquist to have some kind of role on the team despite not being the starting quarterback.

But with freshman starter Jake Browning already impressing in his first three collegiate games — he threw for 368 yards and two touchdowns

on Saturday, and is averaging 9.5 yards per pass attempt — it’s worth wondering if the Huskies are ever better off with him on the sideline, considering Browning was a big reason UW was able to move the ball into the red zone in the first place.

“You know, we’ve got to be able to use all of our people in creative ways,” Petersen said Monday. “I thought (offensive coordinator) Jonathan Smith did a great job of being really creative with our offense. We had a really difficult, blitzing team that throws a lot of different blitzes at you, and he did some things to keep those guys off balance, and made our passing game explosive.

“So it’s going to be continually, how do we use our people to keep people off balance?

Whether that (Lindquist package) continues or not will kind of be week to week.”

Browning’s performance, it seems, isn’t necessarily a factor in such decisions.

“It depends what play we’re calling,” Petersen said. “Jake’s not better than some of our other guys at some of the plays, so we’ll try to put our best personnel out there.”

With Lindquist, Petersen said on Saturday, “I don’t really want to say exactly what (his role) is because one day we’ll do this and the next we’ll do that. I think we can be creative with him.”

Injury update Petersen did not offer a specific update on the injury status of star safety Budda Baker or left guard Jake Eldrenkamp, saying only that each player is “week to week” and that neither player’s ailment is thought to be season-ending.

Baker, a sophomore, led the

team in total snaps played as a true freshman in 2014, and is also the team’s primary kick returner. He sustained an ankle injury on the third play of Saturday’s 31-17 victory over Utah State when an Aggies offensive lineman fell into the back of his legs.

Eldrenkamp started the first two games at left guard but did not play on Saturday after he was injured during practice. As a result, the Huskies started true freshman Trey Adams at left tackle and moved third-year sophomore Coleman Shelton inside to left guard. The Huskies also started redshirt freshman Kaleb McGary at right tackle and redshirt freshman Jesse Sosebee at right guard.

Petersen praised Shelton in particular, noting that he “played the entire game at left guard, and he’s played there two days in his entire life.”

“I thought they did a good job for their first time all out there together,” Petersen said. “Can we improve? Absolutely. Do we need to improve? For sure. But I thought the first time out of the gate, they were pretty good.”

Extra points After rushing for just 74 yards on 35 carries against Utah State, the Huskies rank 114th nationally in yards-per-carry at just 3.45. “We definitely need to run the ball better than we have,” Petersen said. “I could be a broken record all year.

If we don’t run the ball better, I’m going to be saying the same thing.

And so we’ll continue to work hard on it and continue to try to come up with answers for our guys and give them a chance to be successful.

There’s no question it needs to get better.” ... Petersen said he’s “not really exactly sure” who the backup quarterback would be if Browning couldn’t play. ... Of Cal junior quarterback Jared Goff, considered one of the best quarterback prospects in this year’s NFL draft class, Petersen said: “He’s really, really good. He gets it out really fast. He’ll hang in the pocket and sit on his back foot.

That guy can throw it down the field 40 yards on his back foot, I mean, on a line.”

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Arkansas coach Bret Bielema fired back at Kliff Kingsbury on Monday, suggesting the Texas Tech coach had done something “very, very weird” by bringing up old comments following the Red Raiders’ win over the Razorbacks.

Texas Tech beat Arkansas 35-24 on Saturday night in a matchup of former Southwest Conference rivals, after which Kingsbury delivered a sharp rebuke to what he said was Bielema’s criticism of spread offenses during a Texas high school coaches’ convention over the summer.

The Red Raiders coach and former quarterback, a believer in his school’s “Air Raid” offensive system, noted Arkansas’ losses to Toledo and Texas Tech by saying Bielema “just got his (butt) kicked twice in a row and probably next week by (Texas) A&M as well.”

On Monday, Bielema said he was “shocked” by the tonguelashing. The third-year Arkansas coach also said he hadn’t spoken with Kingsbury following their “quick” postgame handshake.

“No, we weren’t talking before and probably won’t talk now,” Bielema said.

He said he never directly called out Texas Tech’s offense at the summer clinic, and only intended to state his belief in a pro-style system when facing off against spread teams.

“If we start digging into what people say at coaches’ clinics, and trying to use that as motivation, it’s going to be a very, very weird world,” Bielema said.

Kingsbury turned the indirect conversation between two of college football’s most outgoing and outspoken personalities into a personal one on Saturday by following his original criticism with, “(Bielema is) a prideful guy, and he says what’s on his mind, but it just hasn’t worked out for him (at Arkansas).”

Kingsbury turned down a chance to discuss the incident on Monday.

The Razorbacks are 11-17 in their third season under Bielema, who arrived from Wisconsin following the 2012 season. Their 1-2 start to this season comes after a summer of lofty expectations following three of four wins to end last season, including a dominating 31-7 win over Texas in the Texas Bowl.

One of those eleven wins was a 49-28 romp at Texas Tech a year ago, a point Bielema mentioned on Monday.

“If (Saturday) was (a butt)-kicking, I’d love to see what last year was,” Bielema said.

Bielema took one final parting shot at Kingsbury, who is 15-13 in his three seasons with the Red Raiders.

“I’m happy he got to vent and feels a lot better,” Bielema said.

“You know, as a coach who’s been in it for 10 years, I know better than to worry about somebody that’s been (around) for a couple that are .500.”

showing the look of the next great passer to come through Washington’s program. After an expected slow start in the season opener at Boise State, Browning has rebounded with consecutive 300-yard passing games as the Huskies (2-1) head into Pac-12 Conference play on a high note.

Browning threw for 368 yards and three touchdowns in Washington’s 31-17 win over Utah State last Saturday. Browning threw an interception on his first pass of the second half then completed his next 12 throws, including a pair of touchdowns. It was the most yards passing by a freshman in Washington history.

“That’s the thing, he has progressed. He’s looking more and more comfortable and confident out

there,” Washington offensive coordinator Jonathan Smith said. “Been kind of impressed he’s been able to extend the plays a couple of times. I thought that would have been an issue, but he’s escaped so far.”

Browning will never be considered a dual-threat quarterback. He’s a traditional passer from the pocket and was recruited by the Huskies for his pure passing ability. But his ability to extend plays by moving in the pocket or sometimes scrambling away from trouble before making the throw has caught his coaches by surprise.

Browning did just that for two of his touchdowns against Utah State. On his 81-yard touchdown to Dwayne Washington, Browning scrambled to his left and went through his progressions before dropping the pass off to Washington and letting the running back use his speed

to race down the sideline for the score.

The 3-yard TD pass to Drew Sample was even more impressive. Browning spun away from the pass rush and rolled to the sideline before flipping the pass to Sample, who wasn’t even supposed to be an

option on the play.

“I don’t think that’s necessarily what we thought of as being one of his strengths,” Petersen said. “I think anytime a guy can get some things done with his feet, especially when you know he’s a pocket passer, it’s always going to be a benefit.”

Philbin: Suh wasn’t freelancing

Seahawks From Page C1

this game coming up (next Sunday against Chicago) and getting going.

There’s a lot of games left. I know you like to see everything go perfectly as you roll through this thing, but it isn’t like that and there are great challenges to it. We were 3-3 last year and everybody was wondering, ‘Where are we, what’s going on?’ We hadn’t found our stride yet. Here we are two games, we have to see what happens.”

One would think the numbers would inject a certain measure of urgency into the Seahawks. Seattle has aspirations of reaching the Super Bowl for a third consecutive season, but recent history suggests starting the season 0-2 makes that a difficult proposition. The last team to reach the Super Bowl after starting the second with back-to-back defeats was the New York Giants, who won the big game in 2007.

But starting the season 0-2 isn’t fatal. There are teams that reached the playoffs each of the past two seasons after starting 0-2: Carolina in 2013 and Indianapolis last season. In 2008 three teams made the postseason after starting 0-2 (Miami, Minnesota, San Diego).

Seattle also had a chance to win both its games, holding a fourth-quarter lead in each.

Add in the degree of difficulty of said games — a road contests against a St. Louis team many consider on the rise, followed by a road game against a Green Bay team that was undefeated at home last season and still fuming from losing to the Seahawks in last season’s NFC Championship contest — and Carroll had his finger pointed everywhere but the panic button.

“To play at the level that we’ve played at for the last three years we’ve done a lot of things really well,” Carroll said. “To play at that level you have to, because you’re challenged at every turn. There’s a lot of fine tuning to get that done. There’s a lot of teams that almost get on top, but it’s very challenging. We’re in the fine tuning of it.

“Not getting started well doesn’t mean we’re not going to finish well,” Carroll continued. “We didn’t start well in that game (against Green Bay), then we we’re back in that game. We know better. It’s staying true to the core beliefs we have until they show up and take over. It’s exactly what happened last year and it’s happened in every season I can ever remember when you do have a good year.”

Carroll said he thought the team made some significant strides on offense Sunday. He said the Seahawks’ offensive line did significantly better in pass protection against Green Bay than it did against St. Louis, which allowed quarterback Russell Wilson to get into a rhythm during a third quarter in which Seattle turned a 13-3 deficit into a 17-13 lead.

Carroll also thought his defense did what it could against Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Seattle stayed in its nickel defense the entire game in an effort to limit the reigning NFL MVP, and for three quarters the bulk of the damage Rodgers did came from his hard count, which drew Seahawks defensive end Michael Bennett offsides three times and allowed Rodgers free plays. But Rodgers led the Packers on two lengthy fourth-quarter scoring drives.

Ultimately, Carroll found himself lamenting the Seahawks’ inability to finish out either of their first two games, and now Seattle finds itself needing to dig out of an 0-2 hole.

“It’s a difficult 0-2 start for us, but one that challenges us,” Carroll said.

“There’s a lot of speculation about it, but I feel we have a lot of good football in us, a lot of good stuff ahead, and we’re very close to doing some really good things. We’re looking forward to coming home, trying to get settled this week and getting started to do this thing all over again.”

Extra points It appears as though the Seahawks will be facing a backup quarterback in their home opener next Sunday. Multiple outlets reported Monday that Chicago Bears starting quarterback Jay Cutler will miss at least two weeks because of a hamstring injury. If Cutler can’t go Sunday, then Jimmy Clausen would get the start. ... Carroll said the Seahawks emerged relatively unscathed from Sunday’s game with regards to injuries. Back-up free safety Steven Terrell suffered a hip-flexor injury, but otherwise Seattle made it through healthy. ... Carroll said nothing has changed with regards to the holdout of Pro Bowl strong safety Kam Chancellor. Chancellor’s holdout reached 53 days Monday with no end in sight. DeShawn Shead played in Chancellor’s spot against Green Bay after Dion Bailey started for Chancellor against St. Louis.

Bears quarterback Jay Cutler (6) suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday’s game against the Cardinals.

Report: Bears QB Cutler could miss at least 2 games

By Dan Wiederer Chicago Tribune

Chicago Bears head coach John Fox seemed to have at least a shred of good news to share Monday afternoon at Halas Hall. The hamstring injury that quarterback Jay Cutler suffered late in the first half of Sunday’s blowout loss to the Cardinals was, in Fox’s words, “not real severe.”

Cutler’s hamstring was strained, Fox announced.

And the next official progress report will come after the Bears’ next practice Wednesday in Lake Forest.

“We’ll just evaluate it going forward,” Fox promised.

Hours later, however, an ESPN report indicated Cutler will miss at least two weeks.

Which means the 0-2 Bears seem increasingly likely to start Jimmy Clausen at quarterback on Sunday in Seattle against the two-time defending NFC champion Seahawks.

Per Fox’s philosophy, the Bears will attempt to keep a shroud of secrecy around Cutler’s status this week, believing it creates a competitive advantage. Yet no matter who starts at quarterback Sunday, the Bears will be a massive underdog, seemingly headed for their first winless September since 2003.

When asked whether Cutler had an MRI on Monday morning as part of his medical evaluation, Fox steered away from offering specifics.

“I’m not going to get into all the tests,” he said. “But that could have been one of them.”

Pressed on whether he thought Cutler would be able to practice Wednesday as the Bears elevate their preparation for the Seahawks, Fox shrugged.

“Is (the coin flip) going to be heads or tails on Sunday?” he asked. “I don’t know.”

Fox also had little patience for a question on how close wide receiver Alshon Jeffery came to being ready for Sunday’s game against the Cardinals. Jeffery was declared inactive 90 minutes before kickoff with a hamstring injury.

“It’s a fairly black-andwhite thing. Either he’s ready or he’s not,” Fox said. “So how close? I don’t know. He wasn’t able to play.”

As the Bears flip the page to Week 3, they find themselves in an uncomfortable predicament — winless, increasingly banged up and understandably unsettled.

And with yet another significant injury to track, they are now working through contingency plans at their most important position.

Fox asserted it wasn’t mandatory that Cutler practice on Wednesday in order to start Sunday. But the Bears would certainly hope to see their starting quarterback on the field later in the week before giving him a green light to play.

“You hate to individualize something,” Fox said. “I’ve seen guys not practice all week and play pretty good on Sundays.”

Cutler left Sunday’s loss 2 minutes, 59 seconds before

halftime, his hamstring injury occurring as he attempted to tackle Cardinals safety Tony Jefferson after an interception. Jefferson stiff-armed Cutler to the ground, raced 26 yards to the end zone and the Bears quarterback left the field immediately after.

That left the offense in Clausen’s hands. And any rhythm the Bears established during first-half touchdown drives of 89 and 80 yards was interrupted.

On three first-half possessions with Clausen, the Bears netted 31 yards and picked up just two first downs, one coming via a third-down encroachment penalty.

And after the Bears created two takeaways inside the Cardinals’ 25, Clausen and the offense twice failed to move the chains, instead settling for field goals.

Things didn’t improve much after halftime with an early Clausen interception plus a trio of three-and-outs.

Said tight end Martellus Bennett: “There’s always a letdown when you lose your starting quarterback. That’s your guy, the guy everyone’s been working with all week, listening to in the huddle. So you want him to be out there with you. ... We don’t catch a lot of balls from Jimmy during the week. We don’t run a lot of routes with him. So he has to get familiar with our timing.”

With Cutler’s status in doubt, the Bears may have more opportunities to work with Clausen this week. And the unrest of an 0-2 start will heighten the pressure.

Cowboys QB Romo to miss at least two months Associated Press IRVING, Texas — Tony Romo won’t be back for at least two months because of a broken left collarbone, and maybe closer to three with the way the schedule falls for the Dallas Cowboys.

His All-Pro receiver, Dez Bryant, will be sidelined perhaps through the end of October because of a broken

right foot.

The defending NFC East champions are alone atop the division at 2-0 after a 20-10 victory at Philadelphia that cost them their quarterback a week after Bryant’s injury in the opener.

Coach Jason Garrett said Monday that tests revealed no ligament damage for Romo after the second broken collarbone of his career.

The other was in 2010, when he missed the final 10 games of the season. However, Dallas was out of playoff contention before he could have returned.

Now the Cowboys have to decide whether to clear a roster spot by putting Romo on the injured list with a designation to return, which would sideline him for seven games over eight weeks.

Defense leads Jets to 20-7 victory over winless Colts Associated Press INDIANAPOLIS — The New York Jets’ suddenly opportunistic defense did it again Monday night.

Calvin Pryor intercepted one pass to set up a touchdown, Darrelle Revis snuffed out a scoring chance by recovering a Colts fumble in his own end zone as New York Jets confounded Andrew Luck most of the night and held on for a 20-7 victory at

Indianapolis.

New York, 2-0 for the first time since 2011, already has 10 takeaways this season and has turned them into 31 points— a stark contrast from 2014 when New York scored 20 points off turnovers the entire season.

Revis continued his mastery of the Colts by recovering two fumbles and grabbing one of Luck’s three interceptions, and between the Jets’ suffocating defense and a

steady stream of costly penalties, the Colts never could really get in sync.

Ryan Fitzpatrick finished 22 of 34 for 244 yards with two touchdown passes and one interception — getting his first career win at Lucas Oil Stadium. Fitzpatrick became the first player since 1950 to start five consecutive road games against one team while playing for five different teams. He was 0-4 in the previous starts.

Miami Dolphins coach Joe Philbin said Monday that he watched the game film from Sunday’s 23-20 loss at Jacksonville, and he concluded that Pro Bowl defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh didn’t freelance and stray from the defensive gameplan.

“There’s a report that Ndamukong Suh was freelancing out there on the field,” Philbin said, referring to a story from the Miami Herald.

“I just watched the entire tape with the entire defensive staff. I didn’t see anything of the sort, so I’m not sure where that came from.”

Three defensive players also said Suh hasn’t been freelancing.

“That’s not the chatter in the locker room,” a defensive back said.

“It’s nothing,” said a defensive lineman.

“I haven’t seen that,” a linebacker said.

Defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle, like Philbin and the players, denied that Suh has been freelancing.

“That’s not an accurate report,” he said.

Suh has just three tackles and no sacks through two games, and Philbin said a reason for his lack of production could be because Washington and Jacksonville avoided the big defensive tackle.

“A lot of times they’ve been running away from him a lot,” Philbin said. “That’s certainly been the case for a couple of weeks. He was actually, I thought, closer to plays this week than last week. He made some improvements in that area.

“They’re going to come. I’m positive of that. There will be more plays to be made.”

Suh, regarded among the best run-stuffers and inside pass rushers in the NFL, lived up to his lofty billing during training camp and preseason. No one could block him. And he was making plays from all over the field, including once running across the field to track down speedy running back Lamar Miller from behind on a screen pass during an intrasquad scrimmage.

But that hasn’t been the case in the regular season for Suh, who had 8.5 sacks last season for Detroit.

In the 17-10 season-opening victory at Washington, a game in which Suh was subjected to numerous cut blocks, he totaled just two tackles.

In Sunday’s 23-20 loss at Jacksonville, Suh had one tackle.

Philbin said stats don’t tell the entire story.

“I think you have to take into account when you watch the film, you have to look at what’s happening in the bigger picture of things,” he said.

“It definitely isn’t about one player, it’s about 11 players. To say he’s going to have ‘X’ amount of tackles or ‘X’ amount of sacks every game, you have to watch the tape. Are they sliding the center that way every time? Are they double-teaming every time?

“That’s going to inhibit a guy’s ability to make plays. You just can’t look at the stat sheet and say, ‘That’s a good game, that’s a bad game.’ “ Philbin said he isn’t sure whether Suh has ever gone through a two-game stretch in his previous five-year career in which he’s totaled just three tackles and no sacks.

“I don’t play the comparison game,” he said. “I have to base it on the two games that I’ve seen, the video that I’ve watched, how teams are attacking us, and so forth.”

Vikings reinstate Price Associated Press EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — The Minnesota Vikings have reinstated cornerback Jabari Price to the active roster, after he served his two-game suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy.

PREP BOYS TENNIS PREVIEW

‘Going to be a great battle’ With Jackson’s stranglehold on the conference title loosened, the Wesco 4A appears to be a three-team race this season

By Brian Adamowsky Herald Writer

Just over a week into the 2015 boys tennis season, it is already clear that the echoes of Kamiak’s defeat of Jackson and subsequent sharing of the 2014 Wesco 4A title with the Timberwolves last year are still being heard around the conference.

Jackson has dominated Wesco 4A to a staggering degree over the past decade, winning eight conference titles in that span and compiling a 97-match winning streak that ended with Kamiak’s 4-3 hammer blow in the Oct. 16, 2014, regular-season finale.

The streak included parts of six seasons, and the Timberwolves won all six district championships following those campaigns.

Kamiak served notice that the rest of the region is closing the gap on Jackson last season. Then both teams found out just how far other programs have come when each lost its 2015 season opener to Wesco 3A squads — Shorewood and Glacier Peak, respectively.

It’s the sign of an atypically exciting year in Wesco 4A, with Jackson and Kamiak both showing signs of vulnerability and Snohomish — having passed its opening-day test against Edmonds-Woodway — on the ascent.

“It’s a three-horse race,” said Kamiak coach Vic Alinen, whose shared 2014 conference title was the third of his 22-year career.

“This year is going to be a great battle.”

Even for all of its ownership of the conference of late, Jackson’s defeat last week might have been a bit easier to understand than Kamiak’s in light of the fact that Timberwolves coach David Hutt has just four upperclassmen (two seniors, two juniors) on his roster.

“I have very strong players, but we’re young,” Hutt said after the loss to the Grizzlies. “Kamiak has six or seven seniors and all four of Snohomish’s players are juniors.

We had seven starting seniors last year. Hopefully we’ll learn from it. We just need a little more patience.”

Make no mistake. The Jackson lineup has plenty of talent — it’s just untested.

exceed 100 miles per hour.

“It’s pretty impressive when he hits it,” Hutt said of Vimawala.

“He can be as good as he wants to be. Right now, Bence and Alex can beat him, but by the end of the year he might be better.”

The issue for Jackson lies in the length of its lineup. After graduating four seniors from the doubles lineup, the ranks have been depleted a bit, and the learning curve will be steep.

Alinen certainly seems to believe that any reports of Jackson’s demise have been exaggerated and expects to be in for a typically tense matchup when the Knights and Timberwolves square off Sept. 28 in Mukilteo.

“I don’t think the apple has fallen off the Jackson tree,” Alinen said. “I just think that we had a fantastic team (last year) and we battled. Jackson has been our

Jimmy Hua

Kamiak | Senior The returning All-Wesco first-teamer and Class 4A state-placer has shored up his ability to play at the net this offseason, making his game as complete as that of anybody in the region.

“He’s learned how to stay at the net and volley on the short ball, and that’s been his Achilles’ heel,” Kamiak coach Vic Alinen said of Hua. “He went to state and finished eighth, but he has a lot higher expectations this year.”

Alinen credits Hua’s ability to learn from players who have beaten him, which fed into his desire to improve his volleying game.

“He saw all the top players at state being able to volley,” Alinen said. “He’s a very smart young man in playing the game. He knows how to stay in points and is mentally tough.”

Kincaid Norris Snohomish | Junior

Snohomish coach Dick Jansen views Norris as a late physical bloomer, and the impact of that development should be evident in the returning All-Wesco first-teamer’s junior campaign.

“His increase in physicality and his growth have created more strength and consistency in general,” Jansen said. “The biggest difference in him is his ability to recreate strokes. He hits every ball the same way. He has real good feet and is in the right position all the time.”

Jansen said Norris’ serve has been the weakest point of his game, both in terms of power and accuracy, but that has improved.

“I wouldn’t call it a weapon, but it’s not a weakness,” Jansen said. “He gives people different looks. He’s definitely a package, and he’s

nemesis forever; it’s been that way for several years, and it’s going to be that way this year.”

Senior Jimmy Hua fronts a Kamiak lineup that also has some work to do to shore up the doubles portion of its order.

“If our doubles teams learn how to play together, we’ll be extremely competitive,” Alinen said. “To win championships in Wesco you have to have great doubles play.”

Longtime Snohomish coach Dick Jansen said that, for the first time in a while, his Panther lineup has the talent to match Jackson and Kamiak up top and throughout the order. The Panthers fired an early salvo in their chase for a conference title, beating Kamiak 4-3 in Mukilteo on Sept. 18.

Junior Kincaid Norris led the charge in the win over Kamiak, by

beating Hua in straight sets.

“Other areas have more tennis players than us, more kids involved in club tennis than we do, but we have worked hard to develop players and develop depth,” Jansen said. “Kincaid can duke it out with the top guys, and we can spread our talent around.

I’ve really liked the attitude of our kids and the looks of our kids in practice. They practice really hard, and they’re really improving.”

Alinen, Hutt and Jansen all agree that the increased parity in the league is a good thing for all the Wesco 4A teams and seeing talented players throughout the regular season can only help in the postseason.

Boys tennis district tournaments are in October, but the state tournaments are in the spring.

“For six years it was pretty much, ‘Jackson’s going to win it.

Who might come in second?’”

Hutt said. “We’ve been very spoiled. It’s been a while since there have been three teams in the race.”

Jansen agreed that a rising tide lifts all boats.

“It’s better for all of us to have the Yankees and the Patriots of the world,” he said. “At the end of the day we’re all trying to get better.”

Ulises Aceves-Castaneda Everett | Senior

Everett singles coach Jim Conner is used to the oohs and aahs when Aceves-Castaneda plays. He just tunes them out.

“He moves really, really well. Hardly ever a match goes by where people don’t wonder, ‘How did he get to that ball?,’” Conner said. “(Against Edmonds-Woodway) he got to two or three balls that I didn’t think were humanly possible. But I’m getting jaded and used to it.”

As talented as Aceves-Castaneda is, Conner says he’s also the most hard-working member of the Seagulls’ roster. “He’s an exemplary athlete, but he’s put in more hours of work than anyone else on the team combined,” he said.

Conner said the experience Aceves-Castaneda gained from playing at the Class 3A state tournament last year benefited him tremendously, and the coach is confident about a return trip.

“We haven’t ordered a room for state, but we’re close,” he said.

Bence Dare

Jackson | Senior Dare has been well-prepared for the No. 1 singles role atop the Timberwolves’ vaunted lineup after serving as an apprentice to Ben Mietzner last season.

“He learned a lot being around Ben, especially that you don’t get many days off at one-singles,” Jackson coach David Hutt said. “He wants to be a top player, and he’s developing the composure and calmness to his game that he saw when he went to state as an alternate last year.”

Hutt said Dare has a firm serve and is confident enough in it to put more into his second serves than many of his counterparts.

“His freshman and sophomore years he’s been more of a baseliner, but he’s working on coming to the net more,” Hutt said, “which you have to do if you want to be one of the top players in our league.”

Cherniak said Kolomiyets played in USTA events over the summer to hone his craft against other top players and has taken lessons at Columbia Athletic Club in Everett.

“Tennis is his only sport, so he focuses on it 12 months of the year,” Cherniak said. “As he’s maturing, he’s developing into a power player.”
