Lovick offers 2016 budget Highlights of the $228M proposal include refunding property taxes that were earmarked for a new courthouse.

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — Snohomish County Executive John Lovick on Wednesday recommended a 2016 budget with few sacrifices

and a $4 million property-tax refund.

The executive’s proposed operating budget of $228 million and 2,817 employees would add more than $2 million and 27 positions to the current budget.

Total revenue, including county fees and grants, would top $842 million.

“This budget reflects those values we hold dear,” Lovick said. “It reaches out to those who need our help the most.

It strengthens our neighborhoods and communities. And it holds us accountable to the people we serve. It is a solid

budget — compassionate, courageous and financially sound.”

Lovick spoke at noon to a roomful of about 150 people, mostly county employees, assembled in the county’s Robert Drewel Building.

Jerry McClain, 80, sings on the corner First Street and Avenue A in downtown Snohomish on Sept. 23. McClain, who suffers from Alzheimer’s disease, has become a fixture of the Snohomish city scene.

OLYMPIA — Washington residents are spreading their dough around to all the contenders in the wide-open race for president.

White House hopefuls hauled in $1.33 million from donors in this state in the first half of 2015 including a $250 contribution to a Republican long shot and nearly three-quarters of a million dollars to the Democratic Party favorite.

Washington’s total is about 1 percent of the $125 million raised nationally by Democratic and Republican candidates through June 30, according to reports compiled by the Federal Election Commission.

And, as is the tradition, Washington residents provide more dollars for Democrats than Republicans.

Democratic Party front-runner Hillary Clinton garnered the most money, $738,490, and fellow Democrat U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose surging candidacy has Clinton on her heels, hauled in the next largest sum, $185,235.

Among Republicans, Ben Carson topped the field with $94,205 followed by Sen. Marco Rubio ($84,810), Sen. Ted Cruz ($72,257) and Jeb Bush ($69,800).

Sen. Rand Paul tallied up $47,134 and Carly Fiorina netted $15,123.

In all, three Democrats and 10 Republicans received contributions from residents in Washington, according to federal records.

Donald Trump, the leader in the battle for the GOP nomination, isn’t on the list because he’s using his own money to pay for his campaign. He did set up a campaign committee in late June and received some donations, though none from Washington residents, according to federal records.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie isn’t either because he entered the race June 30, and neither is Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker who got in, and out, since July 1.

He has even been known to sing at City Council meetings. It’s in the town’s public minutes: “Jerry McClain sang ‘Unchained Melody’ for the Council and audience.”

Elaine said he gets depressed if he doesn’t go out to sing several hours a day. “Music soothes his soul and activates a part of the brain and that keeps the other parts of the brain healthier,” she said. “It is so healing.”

It’s a crucial social outlet for her as well.

Jerry didn’t start singing publicly until after the couple moved to Snohomish from Arizona four years ago to be closer to their daughter and three grandchildren in Woodinville.

In Snohomish, they not only found affordable senior housing, they also found a home.

The birthday party is to thank the town for making them feel so welcome.

The feeling is mutual.

“They add so much to the street life in the city,” Snohomish Mayor Karen Guzak said. “Both are such radiant, positive people.”

Jerry’s usual singing corner is by Joyworks, a vintage shop on First Street that provides the electricity. His melodies drift inside.

family, Elaine said, adding that later he counts every penny, over and over.

His voice is soulful and resonant, almost gospellike as he lingers over long notes and hits the high ones with gusto.

“It’s beautiful,” said Patty Monteith, of Marysville, on an outing with her elderly mom. “We were just walking down the street and what a gift. We’ve been here for half an hour.”

Between songs, Jerry chats and jokes with people. He takes requests.

No tip necessary, though a mention of his medals is valued.

“I really appreciate it when people notice them,” he said.

Elaine said Jerry was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s five years ago, but there were earlier signs.

“He’d leave the water on, the burners on, the doors open,” she said. “I couldn’t leave him alone.”

Elaine, 64, sometimes brought him to school with her during her last year of teaching second grade in Phoenix before moving to Washington.

“Since he has been out there singing I have not noticed any decline,” she said. “It’s more about confusion than memory.”

The dementia isn’t readily obvious and Elaine doesn’t want people to mention it in front of him.

“He’d be really embarrassed,” she said.

She rarely leaves his side.

When he sings, she runs her fingers over his arm.

He knows something is up.

“She ordered a caretaker for me,” he said.

She interjects: “We’re looking into someone being able to come in and help with the chores.”

The couple met in 1974 in Indiana when she was a night-shift waitress and he a day cook. After marrying, they operated restaurants in Montana, Oregon and Idaho.

His specialties: “Steak and lobster,” he said. “And Cajun food from Louisiana, because that’s where I was born.”

Long before Elaine, he was a chef at a Hollywood studio.

“I sang with Elvis,” he said. “He was always in and out of there. I remember every song he’s ever written.”

Gipson denies harassment allegations

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — City Councilman Ron Gipson hosted an event Tuesday to deny allegations that he sexually harassed women he works with at the Denney Juvenile Justice Center.

Gipson two weeks ago returned to work as a juvenile corrections officer after spending 19 months on paid leave. He said he’s been given a 30-day suspension

without pay for allegedly making inappropriate sexual comments.

“I want to be very clear: I did not sexually harass or make any (inappropriate) comments to my co-workers,” Gipson said.

Gipson said he’s contesting the findings against him through workplace arbitration. He took responsibility for “making locker room talk with my male co-workers.”

Superior Court administrators, who oversee Denney, initiated

the personnel investigation in early 2014. It has cost taxpayers more than a half-million dollars.

The county also paid $750,000 to settle a lawsuit that focused on Gipson’s behavior toward three women who work with him.

The county hired Mill Creek attorney Marcella Fleming Reed’s law firm to look into claims of wrongdoing about Gipson and 21 other co-workers.

Investigators concluded that Gipson made inappropriate

sexual and racial remarks at work.

They were unable to substantiate more serious allegations. The Daily Herald obtained a copy of the findings through a public records request.

“Mr. Gipson knew his conduct violated county policies and ignored (a supervisor’s) instructions to stop the behavior,” the report states. “Mr. Gipson’s conduct constitutes sexual harassment and violates Superior Court policy.”

Where fog likes to linger

Gipson called the law firm’s findings “inadequate and incomplete.”

About 50 people gathered Tuesday evening at the Everett Firefighters Hall on Hewitt Avenue to hear him speak. They included family members and supporters, but also people who objected to what Gipson was saying.

to undermine the case.

“The point was for me to step in it,” she said.

Mestel insisted he hid no traps. He blamed lack of progress in reviewing the records on computer problems and his busy schedule.

The more than 6,000 emails are part of the trove of records seized when search warrants were served on Martinez’s computers and email accounts.

The former Monroe School Board member is accused of instigating a sexual relationship in 2003 with a then-14-year-old girl.

MARYSVILLE — Like the detectives investigating the tragedy, the lone survivor of the Marysville Pilchuck High School shootings last fall doesn’t know exactly why Jaylen Fryberg fired at him and killed his best friends and then himself.

On Jan. 28, three months and four days after the shootings, Nate Hatch shared his observations with detectives.

A redacted transcript of the 15-page interview was made public Wednesday. The document inadvertently had been omitted from some 1,600 pages of investigative records released in early September, officials said.

Nate was accompanied by his mother and grandfather during the 34-minute interview. He’d spent nearly two weeks at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle after being shot in the jaw and left for dead in the high school cafeteria on Oct. 24.

Nate described his friendship with Jaylen and speculated that a breakup with a girlfriend may have led Jaylen to shoot five companions and kill himself.

Nate had known Jaylen, his second cousin, since kindergarten. They became close friends in middle school, where they played football and wrestled together.

Nate considered his cousin and next-door neighbor, Andrew Fryberg, his best friend.

“He was pretty much a brother to me,” he said, reportedly fighting back tears.

Andrew Fryberg, Gia Soriano, Zoe Galasso and Shaylee Chuckulnaskit all died after being shot in the head. Nate spent nearly two weeks in the hospital.

Charges against officer could be dismissed

By Scott North Herald Writer

EVERETT — A prosecutor’s recent clicks with a computer mouse may have put in jeopardy the case against a former Monroe police sergeant accused of sex crimes with a girl he met long ago while teaching a drug-education class.

Carlos Alberto Martinez, 61, was scheduled to be on trial this week, facing multiple counts of child molestation and other offenses.

Instead, he won a victory Wednesday in Snohomish County Superior Court, one that raises the possibility that charges could be dismissed.

Longtime Everett defense attorney Mark Mestel contends that Martinez’s constitutional right to legal counsel was violated by Lisa Paul, an equally seasoned deputy prosecutor.

At issue are emails Paul reviewed Sept. 10, including some that were between Martinez and a civil attorney who represented the defendant in a 2010 divorce.

Viewing those records violated attorney-client privilege, and dismissing the charges is the appropriate remedy, Mestel contends.

The criminal charges against Martinez were filed in 2013.

Paul presented Judge Michael Downes with declarations and

emails that document her concerns over the years about respecting attorney client confidentiality in the case. The pleadings also show she and her staff made repeated, collegial attempts to get Mestel to review the emails and flag any concerns.

The defense attorney never identified materials she should avoid. Paul said she didn’t anticipate a problem until Mestel complained and moved for dismissal on the eve of trail.

She told the judge she had believed the defense’s actions over time had amounted to an implied waiver of attorney-client privilege. She’s since come to suspect it was part of a strategy

papers said. He left the Monroe Police Department in 2009 because he was about to be fired after being accused of assaulting his wife. That same year, Martinez separated from his wife and moved to Texas with the girl. She went to police in Texas in 2011.

At Wednesday’s hearing, Downes said he was not persuaded the defense had waived attorney-client privilege. Further, he didn’t believe there was evidence of a defense attempt to trap the prosecution.

He said the concerns

The proposed budget he unveiled Wednesday touched on those themes.

In it, he seeks to cut taxes and boost reserves while expanding some human services and criminal justice programs.

What Lovick doesn’t want to do is make a big deal that he’s the incumbent and the Democratic Party’s chosen one who’s endorsed by Gov. Jay Inslee, U.S. Reps. Rick Larsen and Suzan DelBene, and pretty much the entire tribe of Democratic officeholders in Snohomish County.

While those are facts Lovick definitely wants Democratic voters to know by the time ballots arrive, he’s hoping the voters he’s courting in the GOP never find out.

Somers also plans to tailor his campaign message to incorporate themes important to Republicans such as a commitment to better managing county government and

has been conducting that effort.

Mestel, meanwhile, said he may want to question the prosecutor under oath.

“Until we know what she reviewed — or will never know what she reviewed — it is hard to take the next step,” Mestel said.

The controversy needs resolved before moving ahead, the judge said.

“The whole thing could have dramatic impact on the case,” Downes said.

responsible spending of tax dollars.

Not being the incumbent or wearing the official party collar may prove the biggest plus in his pursuit.

Already Somers has done a better job corralling public and private support of familiar names in the county GOP. He is backed by Carolyn Eslick, the Republican mayor of Sultan who lost to Lovick in the 2014 election. Former Snohomish County Sheriff Rick Bart is on board as well.

Somers said he is backed by one primary opponent, conservative Republican Norm Nunnally. And he’s been trying for another, Robert Sutherland, who received 25,033 votes en route to finishing third in the August primary.

And Somers has received roughly $18,000 in campaign contributions from GOP stalwart Hank Robinett, his lawyer son, Marty, and their network of family members and businesses.

They’ve backed Somers in his last couple elections which could impress Republicans as much as it may offend Democrats.

But inasmuch as Democratic voters may not be the ones deciding this race, it may not matter.

By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — State regulators have filed a formal complaint against a Seattle tour company after one of its amphibious vehicles swerved into an oncoming charter bus last week, killing five people and injuring dozens of others.

The Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission filed the complaint late Tuesday, a day after it suspended operations of the repurposed military “duck boats” owned by Ride the Ducks of Seattle until an investigation of the accident is complete.

The complaint by commission staff was expected. It alleges that at least one of the company’s vehicles, “Duck 6,” was operated in an unsafe manner.

“While the cause of the accident has not been identified, any number of factors may have contributed to it, including the company’s maintenance of its vehicles, driver safety, or other operational issues,” the complaint says, noting that until the commission’s staff completes a full investigation of the company’s safety practices, the “scope of potential safety issues cannot be established.”

The complaint, which will be presented during a commission hearing Thursday, says that an

area of concern is federal investigators’ contention that that the duck boat involved in the crash did not have an axle repair that was recommended two years ago for such vehicles.

Authorities have been looking into whether axle failure caused the crash.

The vehicle’s front left axle was found sheared off, but it’s not clear if it broke before the collision or during it. The National Transportation Safety Board has said it could take a year to determine the cause of the crash.

Four international college students died at the scene, and a fifth — a 20-year-old woman — died Sunday. They were among about 45 students and staff from North Seattle College who were on the charter bus when the tourist-carrying duck boat swerved into it on the Aurora Bridge, a six-lane span with no median barrier.

More than 50 people were taken to hospitals, and 10 remained hospitalized Wednesday.

During Monday’s meeting of the state Utilities and Transportation Commission, state investigators said it appeared that despite a service bulletin Ride the Ducks International had issued in 2013, the Seattle affiliate had not repaired axles on any of its vehicles.

Brian Tracey, owner of Ride the Ducks of Seattle, said earlier this week that

he agreed with keeping the boats parked pending the inspections, but he did not address whether he had known of the 2013 bulletin before the crash.

Phone and email messages left with Tracey’s spokesman Wednesday were not returned.

In a joint stipulation filed Wednesday by commission staff and Ride the Ducks of Seattle, both parties said that if possible, their objective is to allow “Truck Duck” vehicles, which have a different chassis and axle system than the “stretch duck” vehicle involved in the Sept. 24 accident, to return to the road within 30 days if they pass a regulatory inspection.

Atlanta-based Ride the Ducks International refurbished the 1945 Army surplus vehicle involved in the crash and sold it to Ride the Ducks of Seattle, an independently owned licensee, in 2005. It said in a written statement Monday that it warned its customers in 2013 about potential failure of the front axle housing assembly on 57 vehicles in service around the country, and it recommended specific inspections and repairs to reinforce the housing.

Its other affiliates and licensees — in Philadelphia; Stone Mountain Park, Georgia; Branson, Missouri; and Newport, Kentucky — had all complied, the company said.

Marysville road closure for track work set for Oct. 9-11 Herald staff MARYSVILLE — The north end of State Avenue will be closed the weekend of Oct. 9-11 so a BNSF Railway crew can make track improvements on a spur where it crosses the roadway.

The work, which is

related to the city’s project to widen State Avenue, will entail closing the road between 116th Street NE and 136th Street NE between 6 a.m. Oct. 9, and 6 p.m. Oct. 11.

Drivers will be detoured onto 34th Avenue NE and Quil Ceda Boulevard west of I-5.

Local traffic will be able to use State Avenue to get to shopping centers or neighborhoods, but drivers will not be able to go through the work zone.

The shootings occurred as Nate sat at the table in the school’s large cafeteria with Jaylen and their friends. He was playing a game on his phone when the gunfire began.

Detectives asked Nate why he believes Jaylen shot him.

“Because I’m one of his best friends and he wanted me to go with him,” he said.

A U.S. District Court jury convicted Fryberg, 42, on all six counts of illegal firearm possession.

Raymond Fryberg was the subject of a 2002 protection order in Tulalip Tribal Court that forbade him from owning guns.

His sentencing is scheduled for Jan. 11.

Secret Service retaliation?

Report: Agents investigated congressman who investigated them

By Alicia A. Caldwell Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Scores of U.S. Secret Service employees improperly accessed the decade-old, unsuccessful job application of a congressman who was investigating scandals inside the agency, a new government report said Wednesday. An assistant director suggested leaking embarrassing information to retaliate against Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, chairman of the House oversight committee.

The actions by the employees could represent criminal violations under the U.S. Privacy Act, said the report by the Homeland Security Department’s inspector general, John Roth. “It doesn’t take a lawyer explaining the nuances of the Privacy Act to know that the conduct that occurred here — by dozens of agents in every part of the agency — was wrong,” the report said.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson personally apologized to Chaffetz again Wednesday, the congressman told The Associated Press. Johnson did not disclose whether any employees had been punished. “It’s intimidating,” Chaffetz said. “It’s what it was supposed to be.”

Johnson said in a statement Wednesday that “those responsible should be held accountable” but did not provide further details.

“I am confident that U.S. Secret Service Director Joe Clancy will take appropriate action to hold accountable those who violated any laws or the policies of this department,” Johnson said.

It’s intimidating.

It’s what it was supposed to be.

— Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah

“Activities like those described in the report must not, and will not, be tolerated.”

Clancy also apologized Wednesday for “this wholly avoidable and embarrassing misconduct” and pledged to hold those responsible for the data breach accountable.

Employees accessed Chaffetz’s 2003 application for a Secret Service job starting 18 minutes after the start of a congressional hearing in March about the latest scandal involving drunken behavior by senior agents. Some forwarded the information to others. At least 45 employees viewed the file.

Chaffetz applied to join the Secret Service through a field office and was rejected and labeled “Better Qualified Candidate” for unknown reasons.

Chaffetz said he never interviewed with the agency and does not know why his application was declined.

One week later, Assistant

“Wholly avoidable and embarrassing misconduct.”

— Joseph Clancy, director of the Secret Service

Director Ed Lowery suggested leaking embarrassing information about Chaffetz in retaliation for aggressive investigations by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee into a series of agency missteps and scandals, the report said.

Days later, on April 2, the information about Chaffetz unsuccessfully applying for a job at the Secret Service was published by The Daily Beast, an Internet publication.

“Some information that he might find embarrassing needs to get out. Just to be fair,” Lowery wrote March 31 in an email to fellow Assistant Director Faron Paramore.

Lowery, who is in charge of training, told the inspector general he did not direct anyone to release information about Chaffetz and “believed it would have been inappropriate to do so,” the report said.

He told Roth the email was

“reflecting his stress and his anger.”

Lowery declined to comment.

Chaffetz told the AP that Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., would conduct any congressional oversight hearings into the matter.

The inspector general said that under U.S. law and Secret Service rules, employees were required to report such behavior to supervisors.

The investigation found that 18 supervisors or members of the agency’s senior executive service knew or should have known that employees had improperly accessed Chaffetz’s job application, but only one person attempted to inform the Secret Service director, Joseph Clancy.

Clancy said he was not aware of what was going on until April 1.

During the March hearing, Clancy testified for the third time about an incident weeks earlier in which two senior agents were accused of drinking for several hours at a bar before driving a government vehicle into the White House complex, as on-duty personnel were investigating a suspicious item dropped on a roadway near the White House.

It was the latest in a string of embarrassments, missteps and security breaches for the agency charged with protecting the president.

Clancy took the helm of the agency late last year after then-Director Julia Pierson was ousted after the disclosure of two security breaches, including an incident in which a man armed with a knife was able to scale a White House fence and run deep into the mansion.

Russia begins airstrikes in Syria Putin says they are targeting the Islamic State group, but the West casts doubt on that claim.

By Nataliya Vasilyeva and Jim Heintz Associated Press

MOSCOW — Russia launched airstrikes Wednesday in Syria, sharply escalating Moscow’s role in the conflict but also raising questions about whether its intent is fighting Islamic State militants or protecting longtime ally, President Bashar Assad.

President Vladimir Putin called it a pre-emptive strike against the militants, and the Russian Defense Ministry said its warplanes targeted and destroyed eight positions belonging to extremists from the IS group, also known as ISIL or ISIS. It did not give specific locations.

But French Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian told lawmakers in Paris: “Curiously, they didn’t hit Islamic State. I will let you draw a certain number of conclusions yourselves.”

U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter also said the Russians appeared to have targeted areas that did not include IS militants and complained Moscow did not use formal channels to give advance notice of its airstrikes to Washington, which is conducting its own airstrikes in Syria against the Islamic State group.

He said the Russians should not be supporting the Assad government and their military moves are “doomed to fail.”

Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov dismissed charges that Russian airstrikes in Syria targeted positions of the Syrian opposition. Speaking to journalists on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly, he said that the Russian Air Forces are cooperating with the Syrian pro-government military

ACROSS THE U.S.

Obama gets, signs stopgap measure WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama has signed a short-term spending bill that averts a government shutdown and gives Congress and the president about 10 more weeks to fashion a longer-lasting budget deal.

The House and Senate each voted to approve the bill earlier Wednesday.

The legislation finances the government through Dec. 11, providing 10 weeks to negotiate a more wide-ranging budget deal that would carry past the 2016 presidential election. The administration is seeking to boost spending on defense and domestic programs, while many conservatives want to block spending increases, or limit them to defense.

Hacking attempt on Clinton Newly released emails show Russialinked hackers tried at least five times to pry into Hillary Rodham Clinton’s private email account while she was secretary of state. It is unclear if she clicked on any attachment and exposed her account. Clinton received the infected emails, disguised as speeding tickets, on Aug. 3, 2011. The emails instructed recipients to print the attached tickets, which would have allowed hackers to take control of their computers.

Calif.: No charges for Jenner Prosecutors declined to charge Caitlyn Jenner on Wednesday in a car crash that killed another driver, citing insufficient evidence to support a case.

Authorities said Jenner was towing an off-road vehicle behind a Cadillac Escalade on Feb. 7 when she crashed into two cars, pushing one into oncoming traffic. Kim Howe died when her Lexus was hit by a Hummer in Malibu. Sheriff’s investigators previously determined there was enough evidence to support a vehicular manslaughter charge.

S.D.: School shooting The principal of a high school in Harrisburg was shot and lightly wounded Wednesday at the school. School officials said a student suspected in the shooting is in custody and no students were reported hurt.

Okla.: Execution delayed Gov. Mary Fallin postponed at the last minute Wednesday the execution of an inmate after prison officials said one of the three drugs they had received to carry out the lethal injection didn’t match state guidelines. Fallin said prison officials received potassium acetate for use in Richard Glossip’s execution, but Oklahoma’s protocols call for the use of potassium chloride. She reset the execution for Nov. 6.

AROUND THE WORLD U.N.: Abbas ends Israel pacts

Smoke rises after military jets strike targets Talbiseh in western Syria on Wednesday.

to target “exclusively” Islamic State targets.

“Rumors that the targets of these strikes were not IS positions were groundless,” he stressed, adding that the Russian Defense Ministry has clearly stated on its website the targets and objectives of Russian airstrikes in Syria.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Washington was prepared to welcome Russian military action in Syria as long as it is directed against IS and other al-Qaida affiliates, but would have “grave concerns” if it conducted strikes against other groups.

The U.S. and Russia both agree on the need to fight the Islamic State but not about what to do with Assad. The Syrian civil war, which grew out of an uprising against Assad, has killed more than 250,000 people since March 2011 and sent millions of refugees fleeing to other countries in the Middle East and Europe.

Russia’s first airstrikes in Syria came after Putin met Monday with President Barack Obama on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly in New York, where they discussed Moscow’s military buildup in

the country. Obama had said the U.S. and Russia could work together on a political transition, but only if the result was Assad’s departure.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said the Russians’ new action “calls into question their strategy, because when President Putin and President Obama had the opportunity to meet at the U.N. earlier this week, much of their discussion was focused on the need for a political transition inside Syria.”

Putin, Assad’s most powerful backer, justified the airstrikes as a move to not only stabilize Syria, but also help stifle global terrorism. “If they (militants) succeed in Syria, they will return to their home country, and they will come to Russia, too,” Putin said at a government session.

According to a statement from Assad’s office, the Syrian leader had asked Putin for the support.

Kerry said Russian operations must not support Assad or interfere with those of the U.S.-led coalition that is already attacking Islamic State targets. He called for an urgent start to military-to-military

HOMS MEDIA CENTRE

talks to prevent any kind of conflict between Russia and the coalition.

Russia targeted positions, vehicles and warehouses believed to belong to IS militants, Defense Ministry spokesman Igor Konashenkov told Russian news agencies.

A senior U.S. official, however, said the airstrikes don’t appear to be targeting IS, because the militants aren’t in the western part of Syria, beyond Homs, where the strikes were directed. It appears the strikes were directed against opposition groups fighting Assad, according to the official, who wasn’t authorized to discuss the Russian airstrikes publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Syrian state TV quoted an unidentified military official as saying that Russian planes targeted IS positions in central Syria, including the areas of Rastan and Talbiseh, and areas near the town of Salamiyeh in Hama province.

Khaled Khoja, head of the Syrian National Council opposition group, said at the U.N. that Russian airstrikes in four areas, including Talbiseh, killed 36 civilians.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas declared before world leaders Wednesday that he is no longer bound by agreements signed with Israel and called on the United Nations to provide international protection for Palestinians, in the most serious warning yet that he might walk away from engagement with the Jewish state. Abbas, however, stopped short of accompanying his threat with a deadline or giving any specifics, leaving room for diplomatic maneuvers.

Mexico: Drug extraditions Mexico extradited 13 people to the United States on Wednesday, including two top drug lords and several suspects in two high-profile 2011 crimes involving Americans — an attack on immigration agents in San Luis Potosi and the killing of consulate workers in Ciudad Juarez. The move was part of a new coordination effort between Mexico and the U.S. to fight organized crime, the U.S. Justice Department said.

Afghanistan: U.S. strikes Afghan troops backed by U.S. airstrikes massed Tuesday outside a key northern city seized by the Taliban in the buildup for what is likely to be a long and difficult campaign to drive out the insurgents. Despite the overnight U.S. bombing of Taliban positions, the militants extended their grip on Kunduz, forcing government forces to retreat from a strategic fortress hilltop and giving the insurgents a vantage point overlooking the city..

Study: 100 years until job equality Associated Press Gender equality in Corporate America is happening so slowly that it could take more than a century for women to have the same number of top executive jobs as men, according to a new study.

The organizations behind the study, nonprofit LeanIn.org and management consulting firm McKinsey & Company, said women still face more barriers to advance up the corporate ladder. The women surveyed were three more times likely than men

to say that they missed out on an assignment, promotion or raise because of their gender.

The study collected research from 118 companies and surveyed nearly 30,000 employees.

Here’s a look at some of the results from the report released Wednesday: Inequality at home: Women said they are doing more chores at home and taking care of children more than their partner or spouse is. In households where both partners work full time, 41 percent of women said they do more child care than their

partners and 30 percent report doing more chores.

Networks are not diverse: One reason why women may be held back, according to the study, is that they are mostly networking with other women.

Since men are more likely to hold top jobs, women are not networking with men who may be able to help them advance to bigger roles. The men surveyed said their professional networks were mostly made up of other men.

Unhappy at the top: Women in senior-level jobs were less satisfied with

their careers than men. About 28 percent of senior-level women said they were very happy with their careers, compared with 40 percent of men.

Afraid to take time off: More than 90 percent of women and men said they believed that taking extended family leave would hurt their careers. And even though most companies offer flexibility and career-development programs, most employees do not participate, the study said. The only benefit workers were willing to take was telecommuting, the study said.

By Candice Choi NEW YORK — Whole Foods will stop selling products made using a prison labor program after a protest at one of its stores in Texas.

The company said the products should be out of its stores

by April 2016, if not sooner.

Whole Foods said it has sold tilapia, trout and goat cheese produced through a Colorado inmate program at some stores since at least 2011.

Michael Silverman, a Whole Foods spokesman, said the company had sourced the products because the program was a way to “help people get back on their feet and eventually become contributing members of society.”

But he said the company decided to end the practice because some customers were uncomfortable with it.

The tilapia, trout and cheese in question come through Colorado Correctional Industries, a division of Colorado’s department of corrections. On its website, CCI says its mission is to train inmates with skills and work ethics that help them secure employment after release.

Dennis Dunsmoor, director of the program, said the program doesn’t provide goods directly to Whole Foods, but that its partners do. He said inmates who volunteer for the program are paid 74 cents to $4 a day, and are eligible for performance bonuses.

Inmate work is typically used for government needs, such as the production of license plates or office furniture for state agencies, said Marc Mauer, executive director of The Sentencing Project, a criminal justice research and advocacy group. But he said several states have programs where prisons contract with private companies.

Mauer said the programs can benefit inmates by giving them productive work and training in useful skills, but that there’s potential for exploitation, since companies typically pay far less for prison labor than they otherwise would.

Data centers’ big breaks

Some states are offering lucrative incentives to attract the Internet’s brain centers.

By David A. Lieb Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The former limestone mine seemed perfect for a large computer data center. The air was cool. The rock walls provided a defense against natural disasters. And the tunnels bored into a Kansas City hillside had access to abundant electricity and fiber-optic cables.

But the mine lacked something important: tax breaks. Without them, several companies chose instead to locate their data centers in neighboring Kansas. At least one major project opted for North Carolina.

“There were people who wouldn’t even come and look,” said Ora Reynolds, president and chief executive of Hunt Midwest

Enterprises Inc., which has been marketing its SubTropolis caves.

Financial incentives, she learned, were “absolutely crucial.”

Similar competitions for business are playing out across the country as states increasingly offer lucrative tax breaks to attract the data centers that function as the brains of the Internet.

An Associated Press analysis of state revenue and economicdevelopment records shows that government officials extended nearly $1.5 billion in tax incentives to hundreds of data-center projects nationwide during the past decade.

The actual cost to taxpayers is probably much higher because some states, including Washington, refused to disclose the amount of taxes they waived, citing confidentiality laws. In many cases, cities and counties sweetened the incentives by forgiving millions more in local taxes.

The benefits are debatable.

Although they cost hundreds of millions of dollars to build and equip, the centers employ relatively few workers. That means they produce little in the way of new income taxes but could provide a surge in property and sales taxes — if governments don’t waive those taxes, which many do.

Some officials doubt the tax breaks are worth it because they typically benefit a single community while depriving the state budget of money that might otherwise help schools, lower the cost of college tuition or pay for roads and other infrastructure.

“Does it make sense to pick winners and losers for a massive statewide subsidy for, in effect, one county?” said Washington state Rep. Reuven Carlyle, who leads the House Finance Committee and voted against an extension of the data-center sales See DATA, Page A8

Town of Quincy sees its revenue soar

By Rachel La Corte and David A. Lieb Associated Press

OLYMPIA — Until about a decade ago, the rural central Washington town of Quincy was perhaps best known for its apples and potatoes.

Then Microsoft and Yahoo began building computer data centers there, drawn partly by the affordable hydropower from the Columbia River. They came, even though the local government provided no property tax breaks.

Soon, other states began trying to lure large data centers, offering to waive sales taxes on the expensive computer equipment and exempt them from property

taxes. To keep pace with the competition, Washington lawmakers responded by passing a sales tax exemption for data centers, which it extended again this year.

Quincy, a town of roughly 7,300 people, now also hosts data centers for technology firms Dell and Intuit as well as developers Sabey and Vantage.

Washington is among several states that declined to disclose to The Associated Press how much tax revenue it has forgone because of its incentives to data centers, but local officials are tracking their gains.

Amtrak bag fees Amtrak is boarding a baggage fee bandwagon that has generated billions in revenue for the airline industry. The passenger train operator will on Thursday start charging $20 to passengers who exceed limits for carry-on and personal items. An Amtrak spokesmani said the fees will help enforce the company’s established polices, preserve space on crowded trains and reduce safety concerns created by items that are too heavy.

State minimum wage Washington’s minimum wage will not increase next year, and the state will no longer have the highest statewide minimum wage as of January. State officials announced that the current minimum wage of $9.47 an hour will not increase because inflation, as measured by the national Consumer Price Index, did not increase over the past year.

That index decreased 0.3 percent. On Jan. 1, California and Massachusetts will reach $10 per hour.

“Are companies doing it out of the goodness of their hearts, or because it’s cheap labor?” Mauer said.

Michael Allen, a prison reform advocate, said Whole Foods told him of its change in policy after he organized a protest at one of the company’s stores in Houston this weekend. Whole Foods Market Inc. is based in Austin, Texas.

Although other companies sell products made by inmates, Allen said he thought it was hypocritical of Whole Foods to do so.

“They say they care about the community, but they’re enhancing their profit off of poor people,” Allen said, noting the pay that inmates receive for such work.

Haystack Mountain Goat Dairy, which uses milk from herds managed by inmates, sells to markets, restaurants and cheese shops, said John Scaggs, the company’s director of sales and marketing.

Scaggs said that the prison system needs improvement, but that CCI is a “model program” other states should look to in helping inmates. He said Haystack has a contract with CCI and pays a “fair market price” for the milk supplied.

Quixotic Farming, which sells tilapia and works with Colorado Correctional Industries, said the majority of its tilapia is raised on Missouri farms using civilian workers. But it said it is proud of its work with CCI to help inmates there learn a job skill they can use when released.

In its 2014 annual report, Colorado Correctional Industries said it employed more than 1,800 inmates, with the goal of doubling the program over the next decade.

Although invisible to most people, data centers are a part of everyday life. Every time consumers shop online, stream a movie or tap an app on their smartphones, they make use of a highly secured data center that stores and processes vast quantities of information in long rows of computer servers and hard drives.

Firms such as Apple, Amazon, Google, Microsoft and Yahoo often run their own data centers. Others function like landlords, renting space on their computer racks to financial institutions, health care companies and other businesses.

At least 23 states now have specially tailored incentives for data centers, most of which have been enacted or updated in the past five years, the AP review found.

At least 16 others have used general economicdevelopment programs to offer them incentives.

The subsidies appear likely to grow along with demand for data centers fueled by cloud computing and a reliance on outside firms to provide computer infrastructure for businesses.

offered a lot of exemptions for manufacturing,” said Randy Hilger, a principal at the tax services firm Ryan LLC. “But as we become more and more of a service economy, you’re seeing states react with their exemptions.”

The SubTropolis facility finally got its first data center last year when LightEdge Solutions Inc. opened with the help of a projected $15.5 million in sales, income and property tax breaks.

Now it’s looking to expand with the aid of a new Missouri law offering data centers a sales tax exemption on computers, equipment and utilities.

A state analysis projected that LightEdge could produce $24 in new gross domestic product for Missouri’s economy for every $1 of state incentives over a decade. But most of its incentives come from local governments, and officials at the city and county economic development entities said they had no cost-benefit analysis for the project.

It’s hard to know whether the incentives ultimately will pay off.

Since opening in April 2014, LightEdge has filled about three-fourths of its initial 22,000 square feet of space. At any given time, it has three or four people working there.

The LightEdge Data Center’s underground entrance stands in contrast to more drab cave walls at the company’s facility in Kansas City, Missouri. LightEdge Solutions Inc. opened the facility in an underground cave complex with the help of a projected $15.5 million in sales, income and property tax breaks.

built without incentives near technology hubs such as California’s Silicon Valley. But the spread of high-speed Internet connections across the country has cleared the way for them to be built almost anywhere that offers cheap, abundant electricity — or enough tax breaks to make it worthwhile. For example: ■■Amazon subsidiary Vadata Inc. is investing about $1.1 billion to build three data centers in suburban Columbus, Ohio, lured partly by $81 million in state incentives and nearly $20 million of local incentives, including free land at one site.

■■Alabama, which passed a law in 2012 offering special tax breaks to data

centers, landed its first blockbuster recruit this summer: a $600 million Google data center to be built at the site of an old coal-fired power plant with the help of $81 million of incentives.

■■Nevada announced an even bigger deal, awarding an estimated $229 million of sales and property tax breaks for data center developer Switch to get started on $3 billion of expansions at sites in Las Vegas and Reno, one which the company claims will become the world’s largest data center.

Switch’s vice president of government and public affairs, Adam Kramer, calls the company’s data centers “an economic magnet” that attracts other

businesses.

Some officials have mixed views on the merits of data centers.

In Oregon’s rural Morrow County, for example, Vadata received a 90-plus percent property tax exemption last year, waiving an estimated $5.4 million in taxes, according to public records. That tax break could double this year as Vadata’s newly expanded facilities are projected to be 97 percent tax-exempt.

“I don’t believe it’s fair,” said Morrow County Assessor and Tax Collector Mike Gorman. “It’s just kind of a loophole in the system that may allow them to continue on into perpetuity” without paying much tax.

and losers is almost always bad economic policy,” he said.

Earlier this year, Carlyle voted against a bill that had more than a dozen tax exemptions in it, including an extension of the data center one.

“The state taxpayer is better served by investing in education and public infrastructure that enables high value economic

activity,” he said. “Data centers are a commodity, and the political race to the bottom of chasing a handful of jobs for millions of dollars is questionable.”

Employment in Grant County has risen from 36,100 in 2006 to 41,230 last year. It’s unclear exactly how many of those jobs are connected to data centers, but local officials are convinced that

the state tax breaks are essential to keeping their economy growing.

When Washington’s tax breaks for data centers temporarily expired in mid-2011, “the building just stopped,” said Curt Morris, a commissioner for the Quincy Port District. “And then we re-established the tax incentives, and it started again.”

Get ready for November vote on registering by mail or in person at county elections offices.

You’re eligible to vote if you: ■■Are a U.S. citizen and a Washington state resident; ■■Are at least 18 years of age by election day; ■■And aren’t under the authority of the Department of Corrections and not disqualified from voting by a court order.

If you’re wondering how the state identified those who appeared eligible to vote but hadn’t registered, the list was generated for the state by the Electric Registration Information Center, a nonprofit organization of member states that is working to improve the accuracy of voter registration lists. The group uses information from state licensing departments and voting records that include name, address, date of birth and the last four digits of one’s Social Security number.

Sensitive data, including date of birth and the partial Social Security number are anonymized using encryption to

protect privacy.

ERIC uses the data to identify voters who have moved within or outside a state, those who have died, those who have duplicate registrations and potential voters who haven’t registered.

The Secretary of State’s office has been mailing the postcards — at a cost of 23 cents each; about $50,000 this year — for four years. This is the largest such mailing since the program’s first year in 2012 when 1 million potential voters were notified.

“We want every eligible person, including our new 18-year-olds, to get registered and then to vote,”Wyman said in a release. “We truly believe that ‘Your vote is your voice.’ ” That encouragement to register and vote is needed.

For the most recent election, August’s primary, less than 1 in 4 registered voters cast a ballot in Snohomish County and statewide. The numbers are generally better for general elections, but, except for presidential election years, still pretty bleak. For the general

District 21 Commissioner.

Do you realize that from south of Arlington we supply 45.6 percent of the revenue for Fire District 21, and yet 100 percent of the appreciating assets are located in Arlington Heights for the people of the Heights to enjoy?

I have spent years at the commissioner level and as a concerned informed taxpayer trying to pique some kind of interest in correcting this disparity. It is unhealthy for us to continue investing in the future of the Height’s fire protection and not having any growth in our own protection.

We have got to stop that. Have you ever wondered why your fire insurance rates are so high out here south of town?

The good news is this: We have the attention of the current commissioners and the fire

chief, who are trying to fix this disparity in our investment.

My informed recommendation is this: Retain the current commissioner group and give them a chance to finish what they have started. Retain Dan Britton as Fire Commissioner and support Fire Chief Hots and his very knowledgeable efforts.

Giving them a chance to finish the job is the wisest course of action, although if the opposition is too great to fix the disparity we should consider taking control of our tax money. We have given to Fire District 21 for over 40 years, and we have nothing in the form of appreciating assets to show for it.

election in 2014, the turnout was 51 percent in the county and 54 percent statewide and was as low as 41 percent in the county and 45 percent statewide in 2013. Turnout for the last presidential election in 2012 was about 80 percent in the county and the state.

Like 2013, this is an offyear election with no state or national races to attract attention. But don’t buy into the argument that this year’s election isn’t worth your time.

On the ballot will be statewide initiatives on taxes and wildlife protection, transportation and other levies and offices for the county executive and other county officials, city councils and mayors, school boards and fire districts, the offices and issues that most directly effect you as a resident of Snohomish County and Washington.

If you’re not registered, as the postcard advises, “Three minutes. Click. You’re done.” If you’re registered to vote, mark your ballot when it comes in the mail later this month and return it.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■EVERETT

Here’s hoping for safer streets It was with unbridled glee that I read Wednesday’s story on the front page of the Herald regarding Mayor Ray Stephanson and company’s new initiatives for combating street nuisance. It was so overflowing with common sense that I had to look out my window in order to see a 30-year-old man with a beard and no shirt riding down the street with a backpack on a BMX bicycle meant for a 12-year-old, to know that I was still in Everett.

However, I’m more optimistic about still being in Everett than I have been for a long time and I want to thank the mayor and all those who have helped him to work on these excellent ideas in order to make going to the grocery store feel safe again, while at the same time getting homeless people the help they deserve if they’re willing to accept it.

GUEST COMMENTARY | Curbing violence

We must work together against violence

By Jeff Swanson

W

hat is going on in America over the last few decades? What have we turned into?

We have become a society that is saturated in violence, and Americans are killing other Americans, day after day. This is not a pessimistic viewpoint, these are straight facts. Murders continue to rise every year with no end in sight, and quite frankly, it is becoming very distressing, scary and discouraging.

Not the example that needs to be sent to our younger generations.

I know some folks have a multitude of theories of why

murders and violence in general are on the rise. Violent movies? Violent video games?

Wars happening all over the globe? Violent extremists committing senseless acts of violence seemingly everyday?

I think these points all have a certain level of validity to them, but people in general know, and have for a very long time, that killing another human being is wrong.

With all that said, where do we go now as a country? That is the million-dollar question. I don’t think anyone has an answer for that, because the answer isn’t out there.

Nothing is working, and the instances of mass violence or single murders just continue

to rise and rise in numbers.

When I think of the name of our country, it sure doesn’t seem to ring true. We are not the United States of America, we are the divided states of America. That is not a pessimistic view of things, it is a realistic viewpoint. We have to admit that to each other before any positive differences are made. But I don’t see people admitting that, and I just don’t understand that because it is clear as day.

The question is, how many of these violent acts and senseless murders are we going to tolerate before things change for the better? How many lives are we going to lose? How many, America?

IN OUR VIEW | Registering for election

Three minutes and you’re done.

That’s the message the Secretary of State’s office has sent out to 218,000 potential voters in Washington who appear eligible to vote but haven’t registered yet, including 21,077 in Snohomish County and another 2,338 in Island County.

While registering to vote doesn’t take long, you don’t have much time remaining to do so and be on the rolls to vote in the Nov. 3 election. If you register online or by mail, you have until Monday. Miss that deadline and you’ll have to register in person at the county elections office before Oct. 26.

Last week, Secretary of State Kim Wyman sent out postcards, reaching out to nearly a quarter-million state residents who aren’t registered to vote, asking them to go online to www.sos.wa.gov/elections/ myvote/olvr.html. All you need is a Washington state driver’s license or a state identification card. The website above also offers information

What is going on in this nation is deplorable, and is embarrassing and sad at the same time. We are better than this, but we can’t be better than this or defeat this epidemic without having dialogue.

Far too many individuals have become accustomed to this way, and that needs to change. If we all unite in some way, shape or form then I finally see changes occurring. I’m still waiting on that like many others. But I have serious hope deep down. I have to. Without hope for that, without optimism and without positivity for this, all is lost.

GOP toasts Boehner’s exit with weak tea

T

he Republican Party’s “Freedom Caucus,” which has several lesscharitable nicknames on Capitol Hill, is the dog that caught the car.

Now what?

Having (sort of) unseated Speaker John Boehner, these 37 or so uber-conservative House members are now scrambling for “a real leader.”

Except that they aren’t really because they have no one with the skills, experience KATHLEEN PARKER or legislative record to offer. The “brat pack,” as they are also known, had a leader in Boehner but were too self-obsessed to recognize it or to see much beyond their own immediate gratification and pontifical aspirations.

They came to Washington not to govern but to fight. But what does one make of a little boys’ club with nothing to show for themselves other than a record of disruption and a talent for tantrums?

“These are the guys who couldn’t get a prom date,” one House member said to me privately, “They’d rather rape and pillage than do the hard work. They can’t get to first base much less hit a home run.”

This person is plainly not a fan, but nor are other Republican congressmen who roll their eyes when caucus members lecture them about the Constitution and rant about the debt. “Oh, thanks for telling us, moron,” says my hilltop muse. “We didn’t know.”

Now they can brag that they’ve deposed the speaker himself, which isn’t really true.

Boehner probably could have prevailed in getting re-elected, but what for? His leadership style has always been to lead where his members want to go. Unfortunately, this led to the shutdown of 2013 and he wasn’t willing to lead them there again — especially not over, of all things, defunding Planned Parenthood. The most pro-life speaker in history knew this was the wrong battle at exactly the wrong time.

The opposition “won” not because of superior skills or strategy but because Boehner is far more principled than they. He just plays a longer game and understands what these pretenders are incapable of seeing. Shutting down the government hurts Republicans — and it will hurt the GOP’s chances of winning the White House next year. Meanwhile, the narrative that Boehner was an ineffective leader, a storyline long advanced by the Freedom Caucus and beloved by President Obama (hint, hint, boys). Only a conservative could love Boehner’s record, which included cutting $2.4 trillion from the deficit mostly from the spending side and without tax increases. Boehner has been a leader in free trade and is the only speaker to successfully sue the president over separation of powers. Finally, and ironically, he was a tireless campaigner and fundraiser — even for his persecutors.

Boehner’s successor will almost certainly be Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, who was one of the self-declared “young guns” of the House, a posse that also included House Ways and Means Chairman Paul Ryan and former Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia. Cantor, the thenmajority leader, was defeated in 2014 by economics professor and now-Freedom Caucus member Dave Brat.

The No. 2 position of majority leader is also up for grabs among Majority Whip Steve Scalise, known for having once spoken to a white supremacist group and Georgia Rep. Tom Price, who has received the powerful endorsements from Ryan and Texas Rep. Jeb Hensarling.

Missing from the contest is the lone woman in the GOP leadership, Cathy McMorris Rodgers, who considered running but announced Monday night that she would not. Currently the chair of the House Republican Conference, she would have been the first female majority leader in history.

There is a sense among many women on the hill that the boys won again, as in, we’ve got a girl in the No. 4 job, we don’t need her in No. 2. Although this may be true to some extent, others see an alternative scenario — a long-game strategy in the Boehner tradition. Rodgers is well liked and may have elected to bide her time. She’s a steady presence and a leader to be reckoned with — and she’s not going anywhere.

The Freedom Caucus, alas, isn’t either, thanks to gerrymandering that makes their jobs secure except from an even more-conservative Republican challenger.

One hopes for sanity’s sake that voters in the relevant districts will begin to see that though they love a fighter, they need one who has something to offer upon winning, other than whining.

Budget: County last year just managed to avoid shutdown From Page A1

The executive’s mostly upbeat message met with skepticism from County Council Chairman Dave Somers, who will have a lead role crafting the council’s version of the budget over the next couple of months. Somers is challenging Lovick for the executive’s job in the Nov. 3 election.

“I want to give it a fair chance, but it doesn’t add up to the numbers I’ve been given,” he said.

Somers and other council members have talked

for months about a host of looming financial issues.

Immediate concerns include projections that the county will overspend its 2015 operating budget by at least $4.5 million and revenues through midyear coming in $2.7 million below estimates.

Lovick underlined the county’s strong credit rating, but Somers pointed instead to concerns that those same agencies expressed over the county’s cash reserves falling too low.

The county’s elected leaders last year managed

to adopt the current $226 million operating budget after a difficult process. A divided council made significant changes to Lovick’s recommendation, which the executive vetoed. It took the sides until Dec. 17 to reach a compromise to avert the first county-level budget shutdown in Washington’s history.

Highlights from Lovick’s proposed 2016 budget include: ■ Refunding $4 million in property taxes destined for the $162 million courthouse project in

I want to give it a fair chance, but it doesn’t add up to the numbers I’ve been given.

■ Using some of the $75 million in courthouse bonds already purchased to make “life support”

■ Avoiding cuts to sheriff or jail operations; maintaining school resource officers.

■ Increasing to $1.5 million

support for a program to build sidewalks and other pedestrian-safety improvements around elementary schools — a 50 percent bump.

■ Using $400,000 to support First Steps, a social services program for young mothers.

■ Adding $200,000 and two employees to the Risk Management Division to help respond to public records requests.

Money: Residents of Snohomish County donated to all They could show up in the next round of fundraising totals due out in a few days.

Wednesday was the end of the current reporting period. Candidates will tally their contributions from July 1 through Sept.

30 and turn them in to the FEC, which will make them public in mid-October.

Bush, Rubio, Cruz and Paul will see their totals rise for certain as each has held a fundraiser in Washington in the past three months. And Sanders held a rally in Seattle in August that drew 12,000 people and should have stimulated donations to his campaign.

In the meantime, all the activities of candidates should provide collateral benefit to their political parties, which are always looking to amass money in advance of a busy 2016 election season.

“There is an effect. I think the excitement for the presidential campaign is helping,” said Jamal Raad, state Democratic Party spokesman. “I think the attention for the Republican presidential (candidate) debates has gotten more people interested, active and willing to give to our emails.”

For Republican candidates, the state’s presidential primary in May is shaping up to be an important source of delegates.

That might push GOP hopefuls to make several forays into Washington in the coming months to raise money and win votes.

“Our priority is the voice of the voters,” said Steve Beren, spokesman for the state GOP. “The presidential primary is vitally important, and the Democratic Party deserves condemnation for blocking an early primary. Our focus is on carrying the state for whoever wins the GOP

presidential nomination.”

Parsing through pages of contributions, names of Snohomish County residents appear on the list for most candidates in both parties.

Clinton, for example, received $2,700 each from the Tulalip Tribes and Clay Siegall, of Woodway, the president and chief executive officer of Seattle Genetics, a biotechnology company researching cancer therapies.

She received similar amounts from a slew of executives of Microsoft, Starbucks and Costco. But there also are multiple contributions less than $100 from residents of Monroe, Lynnwood, Everett and Edmonds.

Sanders garnered financial support from those living in Snohomish, Smokey Point, Lake Stevens and Mill Creek as well as Everett, Edmonds and Lynnwood.

He got his largest

contribution in the state from Alex and Jeannette Golitzin, of Snohomish, owners of QuilCeda Creek Vintners. They each gave $5,000. Under federal law, an individual can give a maximum of $5,400 per election cycle.

On the Republican side, most of Carson’s money came from residents of cities east of the Cascades like Spokane, Pasco and Kennewick. However, he did record contributions from four residents of Snohomish County.

Rubio’s donors, by comparison, are scattered on the east and west side of the state, including a half dozen in the county.

Topping the list is David Barber, of Edmonds, president of the Bartell-Barber Family Council, who gave the maximum $5,400.

Cruz took in roughly $4,000 from county residents, of which $342 came from Janice Buckley, of Snohomish, founder of the

nonprofit Heartbeat Serving Wounded Warriors.

Bush’s total includes $750 from two county residents. Most of his money came in the form of $2,700 checks written by attendees at private events in April hosted by, among others, commercial developer Clyde Holland and cellular technology exec Craig McCaw. Paul pulled in roughly $2,000 from five residents while no one in Snohomish County gave to Fiorina early in the year, according to the records.

Meanwhile, Democratic candidate Martin O’Malley, the former Maryland governor, collected $5,400 from venture capitalist Nick Hanauer and his wife, Leslie.

On the GOP side, longshot Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal received $250 from a Seattle man while former Texas Gov. Rick Perry — who withdrew from the race this summer — got $500 from a Vancouver man.

Lawsuit filed over green cards Immigrants say about-face on visas has cost them millions.

By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — A sudden aboutface by the State Department has left tens of thousands of highly skilled immigrants unable to apply to become legal permanent residents as they had expected to Thursday, even though many have already paid expensive legal and medical fees to get their applications ready, according to a new lawsuit.

The affected immigrants are mostly from India and China, and many have advanced degrees and work at top tech companies or in medical firms.

They say they’ve spent thousands of dollars apiece — at least $2 million in all — and the government also has jerked them around emotionally, forcing them to cancel trips, miss weddings and funerals, and take time off work, all for nothing.

The State Department issued a bulletin Sept. 9 detailing which categories of people in the U.S. could file their final green card paperwork Thursday. The move came in response to an executive order last year from

President Barack Obama seeking to improve and simplify the nation’s immigration system.

The bulletin thrilled many of the workers who are here on petitions for employment visas, as it was expected to help clear up a years-long backlog of applications by immigrants from China and India. Many immediately started preparing to file by getting their paperwork in order, paying lawyers and obtaining required medical exams and vaccinations.

But on Sept. 25, the government revised that notice without explanation, severely curtailing who could apply. The State Department issued no word as to when those left out might be allowed to file.

Shashi Singh Rai, 32, of Gurnee, Illinois, said her husband, a systems engineer at a pharmaceutical company, has had to put off obtaining a master’s degree in business administration for the past five years and has had to turn down promotions as he waits for his green card, because his visa petition is job-specific, she said.

When the State Department issued its initial bulletin, she said, they excitedly called their parents in India. The couple spent $600 obtaining their birth certificates, Rai said, but her

disappointment wasn’t about the money.

“All our dreams are on hold for this. We have waited patiently,” she said. “We have been just hanging by a thread, and that thread has been cut.”

Swaroop Venumbaka, 33, a software engineer in Tysons Corner, Virginia, said he took three days off work to prepare his application and had more than $2,600 in legal and medical bills.

He said he hasn’t returned to Hyderabad, India, in the past three years because of the complications of traveling without a green card.

When the initial bulletin came down, his immediate thought was about his 6-month-old son.

“I was excited to take him back to my parents and extended family,” he said.

Now, he expects his wife to take the boy without him later this year.

The federal agency declined to comment Wednesday, saying it does not discuss litigation. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which is also named as a defendant, also declined.

Some immigrants said they might be able to get money back from their lawyers, but the medical exams are only valid for a year.

“This case is about what happens when thousands of

law-abiding, highly skilled immigrants spend millions of dollars preparing to apply for green cards in reasonable reliance on an agency’s binding policy statement, only to find out at the last minute that a hapless federal bureaucracy has abruptly, inexplicably, and arbitrarily reneged on its promise,” said the lawsuit, filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Seattle.

The lawsuit was filed on behalf of 15 named plaintiffs by attorneys R. Andrew Free, of Nashville, Tennessee; Gregory Siskind, of Memphis, Tennessee; and Robert Pauw, of Seattle.

It seeks class-action status; the lawyers estimate 20,000 to 30,000 immigrants were affected by the decision.

Two California Democrats, U.S. Reps. Zoe Lofgren and Mike Honda, issued a statement slamming the State Department and asking that it fix the problem.

Both represent the Silicon Valley area of California, a tech hotspot.

“This revision seriously undermines the stability and predictability of our immigration system,” they said. “In a time when this country has to compete harder than ever with the rest of the world for high-skilled workers, a confounding and sudden change such as this is unacceptable.”

Port, pipeline get environmental OK

By Jeff Barnard Associated Press

GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Federal regulators granted final environmental approval Wednesday for building a pipeline and port facilities for shipping Rocky Mountain natural gas to Asia via the Oregon coast.

The final environmental impact statement prepared for the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission found that building and operating the gas terminal and pipeline would cause some environmental damage However, it noted the problems would be reduced to less than significant with mitigation measures proposed by project developers.

The Jordan Cove liquefied natural gas terminal at Coos Bay would be the first LNG port on the West Coast and would be linked to existing pipelines by construction of the Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline across southwestern Oregon.

The $7 billion project is led by Calgary, Alberta-based Veresen Inc. Final commission approval is expected by the end of this year, with a notice to proceed from the commission by the middle of next year. Developers have said gas is not likely to begin flowing until 2019.

The projects were initially envisioned for importing natural gas into the U.S., but development of gas deposits in the Rockies created an abundance of the fuel that pushed the projects to switch to exports.

Veresen President and CEO Don Althoff said in a

PENDLETON, Ore. — Wildlife officials won’t allow people to kill wolves in Eastern Oregon’s Mount Emily pack despite five confirmed attacks on a sheep herd this summer.

Jeremy Bingham of Utopia Land and Livestock formally requested permission to kill the animals that he says are “massacring” his sheep, but the department turned him down, The East Oregonian reported.

The pack killed at least seven sheep and a guard dog in June and August, but the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife said nonlethal control measures

Review board says officer didn’t violate policies OLYMPIA — An Olympia police officer did not violate department policies when he shot and injured two young men in a May encounter that sparked protests, a five-member shooting review board announced Wednesday.

Officer Ryan Donald, who has been on administrative leave since the May 21 shooting, will return to work in the next few weeks after the board unanimously found he acted within policy when he fired his gun and that his actions did not precipitate the use of force. The board sent its findings to Olympia Police Chief Ronnie Roberts, who agreed with them.

Donald, who is white, encountered the two half-brothers, who are black, after responding to a report that two men carrying skateboards tried to steal beer from a grocery store. Donald reported he was being assaulted with a skateboard before the shooting. Police officials have said race was not a factor, but the shooting set off a series of protests in Olympia.

“Because of the trauma of the event and the length of his absence, the department has a plan to reintegrate Officer Donald before assigning his routine duties,” the board noted.

In early September, Thurston County Prosecutor Jon Tunheim said he won’t seek criminal charges against Donald. The two men who were injured in the shooting — Bryson Chaplin, 21, and Andre Thompson, 24 — have been charged with felony assault against the officer. They pleaded not guilty at a court hearing last week. A message left with their attorney seeking comment was not immediately returned. The review board included a community member, a deputy city attorney, an officer and two police managers.

statement that the final environmental report was a significant milestone and represented three years of work.

Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyoming, urged the U.S. Department of Energy to quickly approve the project. “The administration has given communities along the Gulf Coast and East Coast the opportunity to access overseas markets,” Barrasso said in a statement. “It must not leave the West behind.”

The 230-mile pipeline route from the farming town of Malin east of the Cascade Range just north of the California border to Coos Bay has been opposed by private landowners and conservation groups. It crosses rivers,

mountain ranges and a mix of private and public lands.

Lesley Adams, head of the Rogue Riverkeeper conservation group, said the state of Oregon still has to decide on a Clean Water Act permit for the pipeline, and if FERC approves the projects, a coalition of landowners and conservationists plan to take legal action to reverse it.

“It’s clear to us there are adverse impacts to forests, streams and species,” she said.

“One of the big problems with the project is water — raising temperatures and sediment impacts on fish.”

The port facilities to be built include a shipping channel, berths for LNG tankers and

AMANDA LOMAN / THE WORLD

tugboats and refrigeration facilities to turn the gas into a liquid.

Scientists say the site could someday be subjected to a magnitude-9.0 earthquake and a 50-foot tsunami from the Cascade Subduction Zone.

Federal regulators said the port facilities must be built to withstand earthquakes and tsunamis, limit ship traffic, and provide mitigation for lost wetlands and erosion along the pipeline route.

The commission must negotiate with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and NOAA Fisheries Service over how the projects might harm protected species, such as the northern spotted owl and salmon.

Oregon officials won’t allow killing wolves Associated Press

NORTHWEST BRIEFLY

have worked since the last attack, according to department spokeswoman Michelle Dennehy.

Although the state wolf recovery plan allows “lethal control” of wolves after two confirmed livestock losses, nonlethal measures must prove unsuccessful before killings are authorized. In this case, wolves have not killed any livestock on the property since the end of August, Dennehy said.

Bingham did not request lethal control until nearly a month after the last livestock attack, she added.

The wolves also have to be present routinely on the property and propose a significant risk to livestock for the state to authorize killing them. In this

case, Dennehy said, the wolves have moved to the central and southern part of the range, and the sheep are in the northeastern edge.

In addition, Dennehy said, the seasonal use on the rancher’s grazing allotment ends Oct. 19, so the sheep will be gone from the range in a couple of weeks.

The department hasn’t authorized killing any wolves since there were two in 2011.

“We are sorry your experience with Oregon’s forest lands has been problematic this year,” wildlife biologist Mark Kirsch wrote in a letter the department sent to Bingham. “It is our hope you complete your grazing season

with no further loss.”

Bingham does have the right to use lethal force if a wolf is caught in the act of biting, wounding, killing or chasing his sheep or dogs. This does not require a permit from the state.

Bingham called the officials dishonest and told The Capital Press that “the only interest to them is that the wolves eat the economy of Eastern Oregon.”

He said he’s followed the state guidelines even while losing an estimated 100 ewes to wolves over the past two years. In addition to the guard dog killed this year, two were injured last year and another disappeared and is presumed dead.

A Seattle hearing examiner says city officials erred when they told the Port of Seattle it couldn’t host Shell’s Arctic drilling fleet under its current permit. Hearing Examiner Anne Watanabe ruled Wednesday in favor of the port and Foss Maritime, whose client is Shell, in their appeals against the city. In May, Mayor Ed Murray said the port needed a new permit before it could host Shell’s drilling fleet at Terminal 5. City planners had determined the proposed activities weren’t allowed under the current permit for a cargo terminal. Watanabe said the city’s interpretation is “clearly erroneous” and said the activities are cargo terminal uses. Murray said in a statement that he’s disappointed but will respect the ruling. The port and Foss both said they were pleased with the decision. Earthjustice, which represents several environmental groups, said it is considering whether to appeal.

Shell decided this week to abandon its quest for oil in the Arctic waters off Alaska.

Downtown agency investigating fatal fight Seattle’s Downtown Emergency Service Center is launching an internal investigation into a fatal fight over the weekend at a supportive-housing facility. The Seattle Times reported that the initial police report about the incident shows staff at the facility waited hours to report the fight to police and call for medical aid. DESC spokesman Greg Jensen said that isn’t true and that employees called medics as soon as it was apparent the 47-year-old man was injured Saturday. He said the man declined medical assistance.

M’s shut down Felix for rest of season Not wanting to stress Hernandez’s arm any more, McClendon will sit Seattle’s ace for the final series.

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — The King’s Court will remain in recess until next season.

Manager Lloyd McClendon announced Wednesday that ace right-hander Felix Hernandez won’t pitch this weekend when the Seattle Mariners conclude their season with three games against Oakland at Safeco Field.

“Felix has given me his heart and soul this year,” McClendon said. “I just don’t Astros want to stress rally past him any more M’s 7-6, C5 than I have to.

This is the right thing to do, much like I did (in shutting down) Taijuan Walker.”

Hernandez, 29, battled elbow stiffness in recent starts but insisted he is healthy and that he wanted to pitch.

“Like I told Lloyd,” he said, “‘I’m fine to go out there to win a ballgame.’ He said, ‘I can’t let you go out there to pitch.’

“I said, ‘Can I pinch-hit at least?’ He said, ‘Maybe you will.

But you’re not going to pitch.’ I want to do that. I’m going to be bored the last four days. I won’t know what to do.’”

The Mariners will start Hisashi Iwakuma, Roenis Elias and Vidal Nuno in their final three games.

Hernandez finishes at 18-9 with a 3.53 ERA in 31 starts.

“I don’t make the decisions here,” Hernandez said. “I want to pitch.

They said, ‘We’re not going anywhere,’ so they decided to rest me.

The Silvertips’ Sean Mallonee (center) listens to his coach during practice with the team at Xfinity Arena on Wednesday.

PRODUCT OF THE

PROGRAM

17-year-old Mallonee is first member of Junior Silvertips AAA program to reach WHL

By Jesse Geleynse Herald Writer

EVERETT — Sean Mallonee had already performed the mental and physical repetitions many times over when he stepped on the ice for the Everett Silvertips Sunday in Prince George, B.C. But this time it was different.

This time it was for real.

“I pictured that a million times before and to actually go out there and do it in real life was awesome,” said Mallonee, who skated in his first WHL regularseason game against the Prince George Cougars on Sunday.

Perhaps even more special for Mallonee and the greater Silvertips family is the fact that he is a product of the 16-U Junior Silvertips AAA program, which is in its second year since the Everett Silvertips took over Everett Youth Hockey, and the first to reach the WHL. A Kennewick native, Mallonee spent two years with the Arizona Bobcats AAA Midget program. It is normal for players of his caliber to leave home to find a level of competition suited to their continued development.

But the Junior Silvertips now offer local players a chance to

find that level of competition much closer to home.

“It was a no-brainer to come here,” Mallonee said. “That was one of the pros of being here — just being closer to home and my parents can come and watch me play more often.

Everett was a good place to come I thought.”

The 17-year-old center scored five goals with 12 assists in 19 games for the Junior Silvertips last season. That performance allowed him to catch the attention of the Everett Silvertips brass.

“We were in front of good eyes all the time,” Mallonee said. “(Silvertips general manager)

Garry (Davidson) would come and stop in at our practices and watch us play, so that was a huge reason why I came.”

At 5-foot-10 and 180 pounds, Mallonee isn’t particularly big for a hockey player. What really stood out to the Silvertips coaching staff, however, was something else Mallonee possessed.

“The No. 1 thing we saw in Sean was a really passionate athlete,” Tips head coach Kevin Constantine said. “That’s the best way to describe it. Whenever we talked to him last year we just saw passion coming out of his speech and his body language and his play on the ice.

That left such a strong impression on us last year.”

Mallonee, whom the Tips acquired as a listed player, signed his WHL standard player agreement in early September along with fellow forwards Connor Dewar and Riley Sutter.

He tallied an assist while appearing in five preseason games this year and earning his way onto the opening-day roster. On Sunday he formed part of Everett’s fourth line — which

Relentless Eagles finally break through Olivia Larson scores in the 56th minute and Arlington hangs on to beat Stanwood 1-0.

By David Krueger Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — Sooner or later, the Arlington girls soccer team figured a ball had to go in.

After dominating possession for most of the game, Olivia Larson and the Eagles finally broke through with a goal in the 56th minute to lead Arlington to a 1-0 victory over Stanwood in a Wesco 3A contest Wednesday night at Arlington High School.

“I thought we had great possession tonight,” Arlington head coach

Nathan Davis said. “It was a little bit frustrating that we had so many chances — I think the girls were getting a little frustrated, too. But man, we were really possessing the ball well. I think we had like 90 percent of the possession so you get a little frustrated that one won’t go in.”

Both teams had scoring opportunities in the first half, although the Eagles led Stanwood with eight shots on goal to the Spartans’ three. Perhaps Arlington’s best chance in the half came in the 14th minute when Stanwood goalkeeper Kaitlin Larson saved one shot that deflected to another Eagles forward who saw her shot sail just high of the goal.

In the second half the Eagles finally got one in the back of the net.

collected the ball, dribbled and fired it past a very busy Kaitlin Larson.

“We just talked about not overstriking the ball,” Davis said. “You don’t have to kill it. We’re just trying to put a ball away. ... That was a great combination between McKenzie and Olivia. That was sweet.”

With their Stilly Cup rivals continuing to battle, Davis and the Eagles fought for an insurance goal in the game’s final 30 minutes. But once again, neither team could score as Arlington hung on to clinch the victory.

“When you’re playing a rivalry game you know it’s always going to be intense and you finally get that one and it’s a little bit of relief,” Davis said. “But 1-0 in a soccer game is

he upside is that marine areas 8-1 and 8-2 put out a lot of crab for recreationists during the summer season, and there’s nothing to suggest they won’t continue to produce during the fall/winter season.

The downside is that commercial crabbers are also well aware of that.

The late crab season opens today in the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound, with the exception of Marine Area 10 (Seattle, Bremerton). The winter season is usually not as well attended as the summer fishery, but perhaps it should be, according to state Fish and Wildlife Department shellfish biologist Don Velasquez in the agency’s Mill Creek office.

There’s a lot more elbow room and plenty of crab remaining from this summer’s blue-ribbon event — especially in local waters, he said.

“Marine areas 8-1 and 8-2 (Port Gardner, Port Susan, Saratoga Passage and Skagit Bay) fished really well this summer,” Velasquez said. “Lots of limits taken, and they should also be the best choices during the late season.”

He said Area 7 (San Juan Islands) was about average; Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) was good; Area 11 (Tacoma) was slow; and southern Hood Canal did not produce well, but the north end of the Canal was pretty good.

Compliance with crab regulations, often a sore spot in the fishery, was similar to recent seasons, Velasquez said, except for perhaps a small increase in the number of recreationists cited for not entering their catch on record cards immediately.

Each area will be open seven days a week through the end of December, and crab must be reported on winter catch cards, free to those with crab endorsements at license vendors

PICK OF THE WEEK | Lake Stevens Kokanee

Outdoor calendar

There’s only a week or so left in the Lake Stevens kokanee season before the fish swing into full spawning mode, according to Greg Rockenbach at Greg’s Custom Rods & Tackle in Lake Stevens. A fisherman last week checked in with a limit, and only one fish was colored, Rockenbach said. Cooler temperatures have brought the fish up to the 35- to 45-foot range.

Kokanee are running a little smaller than the past couple years, averaging maybe 14 inches, but nice, fat fish. Pull a Dick Nite spoon or a small dodger with a Wedding Ring spinner tipped with a kernel of white corn. Marinat-

statewide. Winter catch reports are due to WDFW by Feb. 1, 2016. For more information on catch cards, go to www.wdfw. wa.gov/fishing/shellfish/crab/ crc.html.

Coho A surprisingly strong coho fishery continues in saltwater, for both boaters and beach anglers, with more fish still coming down the Strait.

State checks Saturday showed 424 anglers at the Port of Everett ramp with 331 coho, and at the Edmonds Marina, 79 anglers with 86 coho.

Granted, the fish are on the smallish side, but reports are that the number of larger silvers in the catch is increasing.

At Olson’s Resort in Sekiu on Sunday, 169 anglers had a whopping 268 coho.

Checks of beach fishermen at Point Wilson, near Port Townsend, showed 24 with seven fish, and Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood said the beaches on the west side of Whidbey Island are also putting out coho. “Guys at the Bait Box, on the southeast end of the island, are having a phenomenal season fishing herring under floats from the beach,” Chamberlain said.

The Snohomish River to this point has been pretty good but not great for coho, according to Chamberlain.

Trollers on the tidal (lower) portion of the river are pulling Brad’s Wigglers, Wicked Willies, or Mag Lips in fluorescent red, red with herringbone, or fire tiger patterns. Bank fishermen and upriver boaters are casting Dick Nite spoons in 50-50, nickel/frog, and silver/chartreuse patterns to the deeper holes and retrieving slowly.

Other popular setups, Chamberlain said, include floats/eggs, twitching jigs, and various spinners.

“If I have one word of advice for coho fishermen on the river,”

ing the corn in Pro Cure’s “Bloody Tuna” oil really ups your odds, according to Marci Rockenbach, the co-owner of Greg’s Custom Rods & Tackle.

Lake Cavanaugh also is producing kokanee to 13 inches or so, along with smallish cutthroat. Troll a small Dick Nite in red/orange and chartreuse, or a string of small blades with a snelled bait hook and a piece of nightcrawler. Put a quarter-ounce slip sinker above the swivel on both rigs.

The best area has been the middle of the lake, up toward the islands on the lake’s northwest end.

Chamberlain said, “It would be perseverance. Put in your time on the water and don’t get discouraged.

Ten minutes after you wrap it up and head for the car, all those fish out there will go on the bite. Coho in fresh water are probably the most temperamental species we have in the state.”

Farther north, Kevin John at Holiday Sports in Burlington said the Skagit River pink run is winding down and that coho fishing has picked up to the “pretty decent” level. Lots of small fish, he said, but a few in the 8- or 9-pound range for boaters and bank fishermen drifting Dick Nites, Wicked Willies, and Vibrax or Mepps spinners in chartreuse and green colors. Bank fishermen are concentrating around Burlington, Sedro-Woolley, and the Highway 9 bridge, while anglers at North Beach on Deception Pass are doing well fishing herring/float combinations.

On saltwater, John said, trollers are scoring in “the hole” at Deception Pass with dodger, herring and 4 ounces of lead.

Hanford Reach kings Action’s hot for big fall chinook on the Hanford Reach portion of the Columbia River, according to creel checks by WDFW last week. In the Tri-Cities area, anglers averaged a fish per boat; at the Vernita Bridge launch, a fish and a half per boat; and at both Ringold and White Bluffs, about two per boat. That’s pretty good fishing for chinook averaging 15 to 20 pounds, with a 30-pounder or better always a possibility. State biologist Paul Hoffarth in Pasco said bank anglers at Ringold Springs hatchery nailed 71 kings last week as well.

Hoffarth said boaters are trolling, upstream or down, with Super Baits filled with tuna and scent, drifting eggs, or working diver/eggs combinations.

Items for the Outdoor Calendar can be submitted by e-mail (sports@heraldnet.com), by fax (425-339-3435) or by mail (P.O. Box 930, Everett, Wash.).

The deadline is noon Monday.

The latest in-season run size update predicts 195,620 adult fall chinook returning to the Hanford Reach, with mid-October the rule of thumb peak of the season. The longterm average run size is 153,000.

Duck tour The Northwest Chapter, Washington Waterfowl Association, presents a free, open to the public, tour of boat-accessible portions of the Skagit Wildlife Area this Saturday, including waterfowl hunting hot spots such as the “farmed island” and “headquarters” sites. The club will also have state personnel on hand to walk the group around the island, explaining the plantings and showing some of the blind locations.

Meet at the Headquarters boat launch at 9 a.m., dressed for the weather and including muck boots. The tour is expected to end about 2 p.m.

To get there, take I-5 to Exit 221 (Conway exit) south of Mount Vernon. Go west a short distance from the freeway and turn right onto Fir Island Road, following the sign for Conway/La Conner. Cross the bridge and in 1.8 miles turn left onto Wylie Road and follow for 1 mile to a “T” intersection and a WDFW sign.

Turn left and follow the signs to boat launch.

Serena Williams may take rest of year off from tennis

By Cindy Boren The Washington Post

The big tennis tournaments are over. She just turned 34 and there are clothes to be designed, HSN shows to shoot and those Drake restaurants aren’t going to open themselves, are they?

And, besides, just what does Serena Williams have left to prove after her quest for a calendar year Grand Slam ended in a stunning U.S. Open semifinal?

All are good reasons to just take the rest of the year off and her coach, Patrick Mourtoglou, hinted that she may do just that.

Williams has won 21 career Grand Slam titles, one shy of Steffi Graf’s Open Era record and three off the all-time record set

by Australian Margaret Court.

“I don’t doubt she will have the motivation to win more Grand Slams and reach records,” Mouratoglou said (via ESPN W).

“I’m just thinking about the end of the season, and I don’t know how high the motivation is, and I don’t think she should go play competitions if her motivation is not high enough.”

Williams has the world’s No. 1 ranking in the bag and is scheduled to play in the China Open next week and in the WTA Finals in late October in Singapore. Mourtoglou hinted at just how awful the Open loss was for her.

“She was two matches away from something really big, so it was very painful,” Mouratoglou said of her mindset. “Any loss is very painful for her, but this one even more than usual.

So it just takes time to recover from it, and when the motivation comes back, which I don’t doubt it will, then it will be time to start tournaments again.”

JULIO CORTEZ / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Serena Williams reacts after losing a point to Italy’s Roberta Vinci during a semifinal match at the U.S. Open on Sept. 11 in New York.

After a grueling year, why not rest up and think about 2016?

She’s at the top of her game even if she has decades of pro tennis behind her.

“I have no doubt the motivation will be there and no doubt she’ll be the same Serena,” he

said. “She just won four Grand Slams in a row and got to the semifinals of a fifth. It’s not time to doubt whether age will affect her. She has a lot of time left.”

As for Serena’s thinking, she left a cryptic message on Instagram: “Stay tuned.”

Silvertips From Page C1

also included Sutter — in a 5-1 loss at Prince George.

Unlike many of his teammates, Mallonee — one of just three Americans on the current roster — doesn’t come from a hockey background. The extended Mallonee clan leans toward baseball, but Sean was hooked on hockey since he first tried the sport at age 6.

“He’s coming from a bit of a western United States naiveté in his hockey so I think there’s stuff to learn, but I think he will become the player we saw last year which is a passionate athlete,” Constantine said. “I think it will take a little bit of time because everything is so new for him. But if you know the human being behind the athlete, we really have great confidence that he’s going to be a really good player.”

Mallonee says the mental part of the game has been his biggest adjustment thus far.

“There are a lot of things you need to go through, just mental reps, (and) thinking,” he said.

“You have to think quicker. It’s a quicker game and it’s fasterpaced. That’s definitely a huge difference from AAA to the WHL.” The goal of all those reps is for things to become automatic. And for Mallonee and the Silvertips the hope is for the game to slow down enough for him to allow for more moments of dream fulfillment like he experienced Sunday.

Note The Silvertips announced Wednesday that they have reassigned 17-yearold right wing Gunnar Wegleitner to the Merritt Centennials of the BCHL. “We feel like that’s a good spot for him to get a lot of ice time and hopefully he can come back later in the season for us,” Davidson said. Wegleitner, a Vancouver, B.C., native, scored one goal in 43 games last season with Everett.

By Rustin Dodd The Kansas City Star

In the ongoing and contentious fight over compensation for college athletes, the NCAA scored a narrow split decision in federal appeals court Wednesday.

The Ninth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled NCAA schools must compensate student-athletes only for the full cost of attendance, striking down a proposal that would have paid athletes an additional $5,000 per year in deferred compensation for use of their likenesses. The ruling stated that cost of attendance was sufficient.

The decision upheld a federal judge’s ruling from last year, which said the NCAA’s use of college athletes’ names, images and likenesses violated antitrust laws.

But the latest outcome in what has become known as the O’Bannon Case can be seen as a victory for the country’s biggest athletic conferences and those that seek to protect the collegiate athletic model and limit compensation for athletes.

“Today, we reaffirm that NCAA regulations are subject to antitrust scrutiny and must be tested in the crucible of the Rule of Reason,” a three-person appeals panel wrote.

The panel continued: “In this case, the NCAA’s rules have been more restrictive than necessary to maintain its tradition of amateurism in support of the college sports market. The Rule of Reason requires that the NCAA permit its

Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby, addressing attendees to the conference’s football media days in July, has been an outspoken critic of student-athlete compensation.

schools to provide up to the cost of attendance to their student-athletes. It does not require more.”

Immediately following the ruling, NCAA president Mark Emmert said in a release: “We have not completely reviewed the court’s 78-page decision, but we agree with the court that the injunction ‘allowing students to be paid cash compensation of up to $5,000 per year was erroneous.’ Since Aug. 1, the NCAA has allowed member schools to provide up to full cost of attendance;

however, we disagree that it should be mandated by the courts.”

The decision comes after years of legal wrangling in the case, which is formally known as “O’Bannon v. NCAA.” A lawsuit over antitrust laws, the O’Bannon case has come to symbolize the greater fight over increased compensation for student-athletes.

The lawsuit, which began after former UCLA basketball star Ed O’Bannon saw his own likeness used in an NCAA basketball

video game, has sparked a wave of change in NCAA athletics, including greater autonomy for members of the so-called “power five” conferences. Earlier this year, that autonomy led schools from the power five conferences to offer full cost of attendance to student athletes, which essentially amounts to enhanced scholarship in the neighborhood of $2,000 to $5,000 per year, depending on the school.

Those payments will continue.

But while the NCAA has adopted “cost of attendance” scholarships for some schools, college sports leaders have dug in their heels and fought for every inch in the battle over student-athlete compensation. Among those voices resistant to change: Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby, who has said that the loss of the collegiate model could cause irreparable harm. Others have sounded similar warnings.

“I think you’ll see men’s Olympic sports go away as a result of the new funding challenges that are coming down the pipe,” Bowlsby said last year. “I think there may be tension among and between sports on campus and institutions that have different resources.

It’s really unknown what the outcomes will be.”

From that viewpoint, Wednesday’s ruling could save college athletic departments millions over the coming decade. But the legal fight over college athlete compensation is just beginning.

Rose to be out 2 weeks following eye socket surgery

By Andrew Seligman Associated Press

CHICAGO — The Chicago Bulls find themselves in a familiar spot, waiting for Derrick Rose to return from surgery.

This time it is his left eye socket on the mend and not one of his troublesome knees. And his time away

should be much shorter.

Rose had surgery to repair a left orbital fracture Wednesday, one day after he was elbowed in the face by during practice.

Coach Fred Hoiberg said the operation at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago “went as expected” and the team said Rose should be able to resume

“basketball activities” in two weeks — about two weeks before the Oct. 27 opener against Cleveland, “It’s unfortunate that he won’t be able to be a part of most of training camp and preseason,” Pau Gasol said. “It’s useful time for any team, to get teams on track, set the foundation for the new season — especially

with a new philosophy, new coach.”

Hoiberg said Rose will be able to attend practices and run, and he should be able to pick up the offense under his new coach simply by observing.

“We don’t know how much he’ll be able to do even while he’s in recovery mode, but he still will

nothing. It’s like you’re still tied — or down — almost. You have that panic feeling where you’re rushing.”

Stanwood head coach Lori Stunz said her young Spartans squad had their hands full with Arlington. Unlike the experienced Eagles side, which features just two sophomores on the roster with the rest being upperclassmen, Stanwood lists just three seniors and six juniors.

“They’re always hard-fought games (against Arlington),” Stunz said. “Nathan puts together a good squad. Looking down his roster (it’s) 11 seniors, nine juniors and two sophomores.

“Looking down our roster we’re a little diaper squad (with) teenytiny babies,” Stunz added with a smile. “We’ll get there.”

Stanwood was not at full strength in the match, with several players out do to illness. The Spartans were also without one of their biggest offensive weapons in Espy Sanchez, who injured her ankle in

be here, learning,” Hoiberg said. “So we’ll go as expected as far as putting our stuff in.

We added a few new actions today and guys seemed to be picking things up well.”

Hoiberg said the 2011 NBA MVP was injured after making a “great baseline drive” and passing to the corner during Tuesday’s practice.

Senior defender Lisette Vargas and midfielder Camryn Cross help lead the younger Spartans, as did Larson, Stanwood’s sophomore goalkeeper.

“We’re really young,” Stunz said.

“We graduated three seniors out of our backline last year, so we’re just kind of playing around with some different combinations in the back and are slotting in a few freshmen back there to get them some minutes.”

Senior goalkeeper Kat Sanchez recorded the shutout in goal for Arlington (3-2-0 league, 6-3-0 overall). Davis said getting the win over Stanwood (3-1-1, 5-2-2), which remains ahead of the Eagles in the standings, was crucial in the Eagles’ goal of battling to qualify for the district tournament and make another deep postseason run.

“It’s huge,” Davis said. “They’re ahead of us in the table. You’ve got to win on your home field in a game when they’re up on us (in the standings). Hopefully it gives us some energy going into the second half (of the season). Our goal is to get to districts and advance to where we were at — state — last year.”

Cardinals clinch third straight NL Central title

HUSKIES | Notebook

Huskies work on tackling

Associated Press

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — First, Taniela Tupou recounted all that went right.

Despite Washington’s 30-24 loss to California on Saturday, and despite allowing 481 total yards on 92 plays, the Huskies were encouraged by their defensive resiliency. By the way they responded after each of UW’s five turnovers. By the goal-line stand on which they stuffed Cal on four consecutive plays from UW’s 1-yard line.

But then ...

“Tackling,” said Tupou, a fifth-year senior defensive lineman. “There were a lot of missed tackles.”

There were 30 of them, to be exact, according to defensive line coach and special-teams coordinator Jeff Choate, who said after Wednesday’s practice that he dedicated that morning’s special-teams meeting to reiterating proper tackling technique.

And it will continue to be an emphasis throughout the Huskies’ bye week.

Thirty missed tackles, Choate said “is a high number for us, so we were very disappointed in that.

A lot of that had to do with really where we were targeting. We were targeting too high, and that’s a huge part of the rugby concept ... lowering our target level, taking the engine of the ballcarrier away, which is his legs, and doing a better job of wrapping up.”

That rugby concept, a style Seattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has advocated since he was head coach at USC, emphasizes a lower target zone that promotes safety by removing the head from the tackling process.

Against Cal, the Huskies got away from that, especially when trying to bring down Vic Enwere, Cal’s 6-foot-2, 230-pound running back. He was responsible for a good chunk of those 30 misses.

Choate said the Huskies analyze not only the number of tackles they miss, but also the manner in which they miss them.

Then, in addition to their standard tackling drills — pit tackle, gator-roll tackle — they try to simulate the kind of plays that gave them problems.

“Sometimes you’re almost even inventing a drill that tries to simulate what happened in the game,” he said. “But I think that’s really important as you look at, not just doing drills because they’re drills, but, ‘OK, we had two-foot takeoffs in these situations. How do we reinforce not getting that? We lost leverage on the ballcarrier in this situation. How do we simulate that so that we can maintain our leverage and own our leverage a little bit better?’”

Said Tupou: “Coach Choate and our whole defensive staff have bought into the Seahawks’ tackling, the rugby-style tackling, taking out the legs and stuff.

There’s a lot of cool little drills that we’ll do, tackling on the mat, trying to simulate live situations.”

No reprimand for Victor According to a report by the San Francisco Chronicle, Cal coach Sonny Dykes submitted a report to the Pac-12 office about a hit Huskies linebacker Azeem Victor made on Bears receiver Kenny Lawler in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s game.

On a play near UW’s sideline, Lawler’s helmet came off while he was on the ground, and Victor’s elbow struck his helmetless head. No penalty was called, but Lawler reportedly needed stitches later to close a cut on his chin.

A Pac-12 spokesperson said Wednesday that “the Pac-12 has not issued a public reprimand” for Victor’s hit. But linebackers coach Bob Gregory said during an interview with Dawgman.com after Wednesday’s practice that the play was “inexcusable.”

“We’ve got to be very conscious of the head,” Gregory told Dawgman.

“Azeem said he tripped and he fell on him, but you can’t brace yourself with your elbow, that’s for sure.”

Extra points Wednesday marked the first day of fall quarter classes at UW. ... Lawler appeared to get away with offensive pass interference on Saturday when he pushed Huskies cornerback Sidney Jones in the back before making a reception that gained 52 yards. Asked Wednesday about the play, UW defensive backs coach Jimmy Lake said: “I want to keep my paycheck intact. I’m not going to say anything.” He added: “You guys saw the play. The 60,000 in attendance had their opinion about it.”

Astros edge M’s 7-6

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — On a night when the Seattle Mariners, out of necessity, trolled through much of their bullpen, the game turned on a slip-andslide tumble by right fielder Brad Miller with the game tied in the seventh inning.

The season, really, should have ended Wednesday for the Mariners in this 7-6 loss to the Houston Astros at Safeco Field.

This was a perfect metaphor for a season that saw spring hopes fade slowly into harsh disappointment.

It was 6-6 with one out in the seventh when Evan Gattis sent a fly to right field. It should either be caught or, maybe, fall for a single. But Miller lost his footing as he charged toward the ball.

The result was a triple. (Miller overthrew the relay man, but Gattis would likely have reached third in any event.)

After Jonathan Villar replace Gattis as a pinch-runner, the Mariners shortened their infield — which meant Colby Rasmus’ soft bloop against Danny Farquhar (1-7) landed

beyond a retreating Ketel Marte from short.

There was more, of course, including a brutal outing by Mariners reliever JC Ramirez after he inherited a 6-3 lead in the sixth inning.

Also, credit the Astros, fighting to reach postseason as part of a remarkable turnaround, for overcoming deficits of 2-0 and 6-3. They now lead the Los Angeles Angels by one-half game for the final wild-card berth.

Tony Sipp (3-4) got the victory when Luke Gregerson pitched a scoreless ninth for his 31st save.

For the Mariners, this was the seventh loss in eight games in a season that concludes this weekend with three required games against Oakland’s even more disappointing Athletics.

Let’s reset: The Mariners had just surrendered a 2-0 lead when Houston scored three runs in the fifth when they muscled up a four-run answer.

One-out singles by Jesus Sucre and Ketel Marte put runners at first and third before Kyle Seager jumped

a high slider from Houston starter Scott Kazmir for a 409foot homer to right-center field.

The Mariners led 5-3.

Nelson Cruz followed with a similar drive to right-center for his 44th homer of the season — one behind Baltimore’s Chris Davis for the majorleague lead.

When Robinson Cano lined a single to left, the Astros finally went to their bullpen for former Mariner Josh Fields, who ended the inning without further trouble.

The Mariners turned to Ramirez with a 6-3 lead in the sixth.

He was a disaster.

First, Ramirez failed to handle a bunt by Carlos Gomez, which turned into single. Next, Ramirez ignored Gomez, who stole second without throw.

Then came a walk to Luis Valbuena.

Finally, Ramirez jumped ahead 0-2 on Chris Carter before putting a slider on a tee.

Carter drove it 418 feet to left for a game-tying homer. That was it for Ramirez.

In came Joe Beimel, who retired the next three hitters.

Sounders’ Marshall injured during practice

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

Seattle Sounders central defender Chad Marshall was taken from Starfire Sports Complex by ambulance Wednesday after suffering an undetermined injury during training.

“He fell, hit his head, we’re obviously taking all the precautions,” coach Sigi Schmid said.”... You’re always going to err on the side of being conservative in a situation like that — anytime it’s a head or a neck — and that’s what we’ve done, and we’ll know more later.”

Marshall is the reigning MLS defensive player of the year, an award he has won three times. He joined Seattle in 2014 after 10 seasons with the Columbus Crew.

The Sounders have an off-day from training Thursday. They will return Friday, preparing for their Sunday home match against the league-leading Los

Angeles Galaxy.

Seattle already has lost starting central defender Roman Torres for the season following a knee injury Sept. 12 at San Jose.

The Sounders’ top remaining options are central defense are Brad Evans and Zach Scott.

Zakuani joins Stars Former Seattle Sounders midfielder Steve Zakuani has joined the Tacoma Stars as an assistant coach for the coming Major Arena Soccer League season.

Zakuani was the Sounders’ first college draft pick before their expansion season, and he played with the club through 2013. After spending 2014 with the Portland Timbers, he announced the end of his playing career, which was shortened by a series of health problems following a dangerous tackle by Colorado’s Brian Mullan in 2011.

Since then, he has appeared as an analyst on Sounders’ broadcasts, and now has decided to add coaching duties.

“I’m excited to continue my in-

volvement with soccer in the region,” Zakuani said in the Stars’ announcement. “Working with young players is a huge passion of mine and this is a great chance for me to learn from (head coach Darren Sawatzky) in a professional environment as I try to give back to a sport that gave me so much.”

Zakuani was raised in London, played with the Arsenal Youth Academy, and went on to the University of Akron before becoming the first overall pick of Major League Soccer’s 2009 SuperDraft.

Since retirement, he also has established Kingdom Hope, a charity that provides scholarships to young athletes in the region.

“Adding Steve to our coaching staff is incredible for the young players looking to work their way up the professional ladder,” Sawatzky said. “He brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience from the highest level that you only gain by playing there.”

The Stars will begin their MASL season Oct. 24 at Dallas. Their home opener will be Nov. 6 against the Sacramento Surge at ShoWare Center in Kent.

PITTSBURGH — The celebration has become a fall ritual for the St. Louis Cardinals. The champagne showers. The rowdy sing-alongs. The giddy clubhouse joy.

Yet it doesn’t get old. Not for this group. Not after an emotionally draining season in which they somehow powered themselves to a third straight NL Central title, the clincher coming in an 11-1 dispatching of Pittsburgh in the second game of a doubleheader on Wednesday night that served as an exclamation point on a year unlike any other.

“Tell me another team that is going to lose their ace and their three-hole hitter and is going to win 100 games?” third baseman Matt Carpenter said, his eyes dripping with celebratory booze.

“It’s just not going to happen and we found a way to do it.”

Jason Heyward’s third-inning grand slam led the way and Tyler Lyons (3-1) did the rest, shutting down the Pirates for seven innings in a spot start that exemplified the attitude the Cardinals have adopted during a turbulent summer in which they somehow grew stronger even as their stars went down.

“Obviously we have bigger plans,” said Lyons.

Mariners From Page C1

“I understand. We’ve been talking the last few days. Been talking to the doctors, and I think that’s why I’m not pitching. I said, ‘OK. Whatever you guys think.’”

McClendon decision means Hernandez will finish nine strikeouts shy of recording a seventh consecutive season with 200 innings (he has 2012⁄3) and 200 strikeouts.

Hernandez admitted it was a disappointment to fall short.

The major-league record is nine straight seasons by Tom Seaver.

The only other pitchers with more than six are Walter Johnson and Roger Clemens.

McClendon admitted it would have been “tougher” to shut down Hernandez if the Mariners were playing a postseason contender instead of the Athletics, who have the American League’s worst record.

“You’re talking about the integrity of the game,” McClendon said. “That would be awfully tough to do.”

Hernandez characterized his season as a disappointment.

“One time, I was good,” he said. “Then not good. I had some really bad games this year like I’ve never had before. I gave up 10 runs in Boston. I gave up eight in Houston with (only getting) one out. That’s not me.

“I don’t know how many homers I gave up, but I think I gave up a lot of homers. (He matched a career worst in giving up 23.) I was up in the zone. When I made a mistake, they hit it.

“We’ll see what happens next year. I think I’ll be better next year.”

The Mariners open the 2016 season on April 4 at Texas.

Lions’ Tate: Comments weren’t shots at offensive coordinator

By Dave Birkett Detroit Free Press

Golden Tate said his comments about opposing defensive players knowing what plays the Detroit Lions are running were not meant as veiled shots at offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi nor anyone else, and the Pro Bowl receiver insisted that he hasn’t lost faith in the struggling offense, despite the team’s 0-3 start.

“I think Joe’s a heck of a coach,” Tate told the Free Press Wednesday. “I can’t sit here and speak ill about a guy who helped take us to the playoffs and also a guy who helped me have a career year, who also put his tail on the line to get me here in this offense. He’s one of the first guys I met with when I came on my trip, so I have nothing but great things to say about him and I’m super, super appreciative for him.”

Tate told WMGC-FM (105.1) in his weekly interview Tuesday

that the Lions’ offense had become predictable to that point that opposing defensive players “called out” plays during each of the season’s first three games.

“I’ve had a couple occasions in literally each game, where they called out our play, for one, and then afterwards been like, ‘Hey, we knew what you guys were doing,’” Tate told the station.

“I don’t know how they know or which film they’re watching that we’re giving away. And that’s something we need to go back and watch our tendencies to figure out where we line up or how we line up or what formation — whatever it may be, we’ve got to figure it out, because we’re clearly giving away. I mean if three weeks, a player’s come up to me and said, ‘We knew what you were going to do,’ that’s bad.”

Denver Broncos safety David Bruton, who played two seasons with Tate at Notre Dame, told reporters Monday that he jumped a Matthew Stafford pass

to Calvin Johnson for a gameclinching interception after he recognized which play the Lions were running by the formation they used.

The Lions lost to the Broncos on Sunday Night Football, 24-12.

Tate declined to identify which players told him that the Lions’ offense was tipping plays, but he said one of the exchanges happened after a game.

“I don’t want to open this box up anymore,” Tate said. “I just wanted to clear it up.”

The Lions are off to their worst start since 2010, and they have a difficult schedule ahead with games against two of the best teams in the NFC the next two weeks. They visit the defending NFC champion Seattle Seahawks on Monday night and host the undefeated Arizona Cardinals the following Sunday at Ford Field.

Despite having Tate, Matthew Stafford, Calvin Johnson, Eric Ebron and Ameer Abdullah — all first- or second-round picks

— playing key roles on offense, the Lions rank 27th in the NFL in total offense, last in rushing offense and are averaging just 14 points per game the last two weeks.

They’ve been outscored, 80-35, since jumping out to a 21-3 lead at the start of a Week 1 loss to the San Diego Chargers.

“When I made that comment about other players (saying we’re) predictable, it was just me answering a question with no subtle punches at anyone,” Tate said. “I think we have a great offense, and this is the same offense that the Saints won a Super Bowl with, with Joe Lombardi there, so it definitely works.

“I think we all just need to be accountable. To get this problem fixed, we all need to be accountable. Coaches, players, scouting department, the people in the cafeteria making the food, our media, our fans. We all just need to be a little bit better, and I have no doubt, the personnel that we have, we will get on track.”

Stewart will retire from Cup racing after 2016 Associated Press KANNAPOLIS, N.C. — There was no final straw, no outside influence, no personal trauma that led Tony Stewart to set an expiration date on his NASCAR career.

Instead, the three-time NASCAR champion simply decided enough was enough.

“I think deep down you know when it’s time to do something to make a change,” Stewart said Wednesday in announcing he will retire from Sprint Cup racing following the 2016 season to wrap up a storied 18-year career

in NASCAR’s top tier.

If there was any doubt Stewart was at peace with his decision, he proved otherwise with a wide smile and his usual self-deprecating humor during a news conference that lasted nearly an hour at Stewart-Haas Racing.

He called the decision “100 percent” his choice, said the only pressure he received was from those trying to talk him out of it and he dismissed the idea that his personal struggles the last three years factored into his choice.

Stewart also tried to ward off any sort of retirement tour in 2016 like

the one currently going for fourtime series champion Jeff Gordon.

Gordon is feted at nearly every track with gifts to commemorate his career, and he visits with reporters almost every week to answer questions about this farewell season. Stewart isn’t interested in the same treatment.

“Let’s establish this right now: I will not be coming to the media center every week to talk about it,” he said. “You can save your gifts.

I’ve got enough rocking chairs at home. I’m not really that kind of guy. I’m content to go race and be around the racing community and

the racing family and be around our fans. They can just send me a note from the track president and say, ‘Hey, thank you,’ and that’ll be sufficient for me.”

Stewart, who deeply loves dirt track racing, isn’t getting out of the car for good, though. He said he will still race in some capacity after 2016, and with a soft smile answered, “Maybe. Probably,” when asked if he’ll get back into a sprint car. Stewart has not raced a sprint car since August 2014, when his car struck and killed a young racer, Kevin Ward Jr., at a dirt track in upstate New York.

His planned departure is not a surprise. Stewart will be 45 next season, he hasn’t won a race in over two years and has been privately working on finding a successor for the No. 14 Chevrolet all year.

Clint Bowyer, released from his contract with Michael Waltrip Racing because the team is folding at the end of the season, will replace Stewart in 2017. Bowyer has been looking for a one-year deal while Stewart runs his 18th and final Cup season. SHR also fields cars for reigning series champion Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch and Danica Patrick.

TOP TWO PHOTOS BY COLORBLENDS

As predecessors to today’s bold hybrids, dainty species tulips are being grown and sold for their nostalgia and adaptability. Try them in a rock garden or along a border. Pictured is Tulipa clusiana “Tubergen’s Gem.” It hails from Afghanistan and Tibet.

“Beauty of Apeldoorn” tulips are a vivid yellow with dramatic streaks of red.

BOTTOM THREE PHOTOS BY BRENT AND BECKY’S BULBS

Miniature bulbs are ideal for filling spring containers. Plant them now, and let them overwinter until spring. Pictured at far left is “Golden Echo.” It’s 12 to 16 inches tall and very fragrant.

Snowflakes (center) are great performers throughout the country and can tolerate many conditions, including damp areas and some shade. Pictured is “Gravetye Giant,” but its size is relative: It is 11⁄2 to 2 feet tall. Consider unconventional daffodil colors, not just yellow. Pictured at right is the white and pink Katie Heath. The hybrid is named for co-owner Brent Heath’s mother.

Spring bulb surprises Consider these new and underused picks to plant now for a colorful show later

By Teresa Woodard Chicago Tribune

It’s easy to dream of spring bulbs amid the drudgery of fall leaf raking and garden cleanup.

Luckily, now is the time to purchase and plant spring-flowering bulbs for a colorful show.

With thousands of varieties available, the choices seem endless. Whether you buy bulbs at garden centers or through catalogue and online sources, remember to plant them before the ground freezes. They need

with planting bulbs, >> Along Steve Smith goes over all of

the tasks gardeners need to do this October, D3 time to develop roots and be prepared for the required chilling period. Most bulbs need to be planted in holes two to three times their height in sunny, welldrained locations. Plant them generously for the biggest show.

We talked to two pros — Brent Heath, co-owner of Brent and Becky’s Bulbs in Gloucester, Virginia, and Christian Curless,

horticulturist at Colorblends of Bridgeport, Connecticut — who offered these suggestions for new and underused bulbs to try.

Beyond yellow daffodils: Consider unconventional colors like green and pink. “While there’s nothing wrong with yellow or white daffodils, the daffodil world is deep and wide in colors,” says Curless, pointing to the green-tinted daffodil “Pistachio.” Heath also suggests the coral-pink-and-white “Chromacolor,” as well as “Dallas” and “Green-Eyed Lady,”

two varieties that are white with green centers.

Technicolor tulips: In the colorful tulip world, Curless gushes over the multicolored “Beauty of Apeldoorn,” a yellow tulip with surprising streaks of red, and “Moris Gudanov,” a double version with similar color markings.

“At Colorblends, blending different tulip combinations is our thing, so we’re always looking for varieties that are multicolored,” he says. Green hybrids (“Madonna” and “Spring Green”) are relative newcomers.

Critter-resistant bulbs: Critters can quickly devour tulip and crocus plantings, but Curless says there are several deer- and rodent-proof bulb options in the amaryllis family, including daffodils and alliums; these bulbs contain a bitter, poisonous substance called lycorine that mammals won’t eat. Other bulbs such as alliums, grape hyacinths and squill have a smell or flavor that’s undesirable to deer and rodents.

Collectible silverware can be had at a bargain S

RAGO ARTS

Catfish with whiskers are swimming around this silver water pitcher made by Tiffany & Co. It sold for $18,750 last year at Rago Arts auction in Lamber.

ilver tea sets, vases, jewelry and other objects can be sold at many jewelry stores and antiques shops for the meltdown value. Sterling silver has been about $21 an ounce, but in mid-2015, it was down to about $14 to $15.

Of course, most collectible silver in good condition is worth more than when it’s melted down, and pieces made by important companies like Tiffany or Georg Jensen will sell for many times the scrap value. But as older collectors downsize and young buyers search for useful furnishings for new homes, some things have gone down in price.

silver tea set or even a set of silverware, so those pieces are selling at bargain prices. It is the lucky couple that inherits a sterling water pitcher by Tiffany & Co. Even luckier are those who get Tiffany silver in Art Nouveau patterns.

A water pitcher with raised catfish on a hammered background was estimated at $2,500 to $4,500 at a Rago auction in Lambertville, New Jersey. There were dents, lost patina, a repair and a monogram, all damage that lowers the value.

The unusual pitcher, 81⁄2 inches high, sold for $18,750 because of the fine workmanship, unique design and fame of the maker.

antique Conrey & Birely claw foot table. It’s a smaller table and has a sticker that reads “patented sept 29, 1896, no 568397.”

A: The Conrey & Birely Table Co. was founded by Jacob A. Conrey and Charles Birely in Shelbyville, Indiana, in 1885.

The company was also listed in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The patent was granted to Charles Birely for a method of attaching legs to a table or other furniture.

The company was reorganized in 1901 and became Conrey-Davis Furniture Co. Your table, made before 1901, is worth about $200, depending on size and condition.

Q: I have old Popeye and Olive Oyl toys that were given to me

Dear Abby, 5

when I was about 5 years old, in 1934 or ’35. I have no idea who made them. When new, they squeaked when squeezed. But after more than 80 years, the rubber has dried out and the toys are brittle. Plus, Popeye’s pipe has broken off and both of Olive Oyl’s arms and head have broken off, but have been saved. They could be glued back on, but I don’t want to touch them until I find out more about what should be done. Each figurine is about 8 inches tall and 6 inches wide.

I am wondering if they have any value today, or if they’re just not worth saving.

It’s an opportunity to learn more about Everett’s neighborhoods and take a look at nearly 40 great homes, said Wendy McClure, the city’s coordinator in its Office of Neighborhoods.

It’s inspiring, too.

Some of the winners

have come through our hot, dry summer without watering much and now have lawns that are turning green again.

Awards are given in three categories: Rejuvenation and Transformation, Pride of the Neighborhood and Neighborhood-Friendly

Business. Each winner receives a plaque for the exterior of the home or business.

In addition, the city’s Marian Krell Award will be presented to former Monte Cristo award winners Sue and Jay Isaacs, who live in the Cascade View

neighborhood, for their care on an ongoing basis.

A committee of Everett residents, many of whom serve on the Council of Neighborhoods, made the final award selections.

Come clean on washing machine mistakes

U

nless you possess a never-ending supply of money and never wear the same outfit twice, laundry is an essential part of life. While the sudsy concept might seem simple enough, some of us make small mistakes that might hurt the washing machine over time.

Prevent premature calls to appliance repair technicians by avoiding these user errors.

Not emptying your pockets. Think that destroyed $20 bill is the only reason it’s a bad idea not to empty your pockets before doing laundry?

Think again. Non-clothing objects in the washer can clog the water drain. Accidentally leave a piece of

gum or tissue behind, and you’ll have twice the mess to clean, not to mention the damage it can do to the inner workings of the washer.

Overloading the washer. While you might think jamming just one more pair of jeans in with that full load won’t hurt anything, overstuffing your washer makes the machine work too hard.

Overloading the washer puts unnecessary wear on it and eats up energy.

In top-loading machines, the central agitator needs room to do its job. Plus, if you pack too many clothes into the machine, some detergent residue could be left behind — which will attract more

dirt next time you wear the clothes.

Forgetting to clean out dispensers. When you’re finished washing a load of laundry, wipe down the detergent and fabric softener dispensers. If you don’t, the build-up could cause a clog.

Using too much detergent. More is not always better. Not only will using excess soap leave your clothes sudsy and stiff, it will also wear on your machine. Plus, using too much soap leads to more suds, which could cause your washer to overflow.

Have a high efficiency washer? They require even less soap to wash clothing properly, so be sure to skimp on the

detergent and only use soaps marked safe for HE washers.

Not taking clothes out right away. Forgetting your clothes in the washing machine overnight or waiting a while to transfer them to the dryer or line might seem harmless, but lingering moisture provides the ideal environment for mold and mildew to grow and will lead to a foul-smelling machine and laundry.

It’s also a good idea to leave the washer lid open after you unload it, so the inside can dry out.

PLANT OF MERIT WHAT: Kalette This new hybrid is a cross between two very popular vegetables, kale and brussel sprouts, a plant of extraordinary beauty. Large grey-green ruffled leaves seem to float on thick bright purple stems. Kalette is the first “new” vegetable to be introduced since the creation of broccolini in 1993. Kalette enjoyed quite a buzz upon its arrival in the U.S. in 2014, being named one of the trendiest vegetables in 50 years by Bon Appetit Magazine, and featured on “The Ellen Show.” The edible part of this vegetable grows at the base of the leaves near the stem and appears to be tiny rosettes. A few specialty

grocers carried this new vegetable in 2014, but its ornamental qualities are not to be understated and it is being test-grown in our area.

Note that seeds are available from Johnny’s Selected Seeds www. johnnyseeds.com or from Jet at jet.com.

SUN OR SHADE: Kalette prefers full sun.

SIZE: Mature height is 3 feet with a spread of 3 feet.

SEE IT: In the WSU Snohomish County Master Gardener Demonstration Garden near the entrance and in the raised vegetable bed; at Jennings Memorial Park, 6915 Armar Road, Marysville.

Winter’s coming so it’s time for October’s to-do list I t is official. As of Sept.

23, the days are now shorter than the nights and will continue to be so for the next six months.

While that might sound depressing, the fact is that Mother Nature doesn’t seem to be bothered by it at all. In fact, there are actually plants that seem to wake up in the winter, bloom and set fruit while the rest of us are hunkered down in our homes.

Go figure.

Last year the fall season was dry and warm, with the exception of that nasty week in early November.

The same is forecast for this fall, which means that we

STEVE SMITH THE WHISTLING GARDENER should be able to get everything done before winter sets in for good and have a jump on spring 2016.

Here are the high points to consider: Watering. Despite the scattered rains we have received, the ground is still very dry. Get out the hose and soak the beds

and lawn at least one time this month. Just trust me on this, it’s worth the effort and expense.

Lawns. This is the last month to overhaul or plant a new lawn. Applying an organic fertilizer like EB Stone Organic’s Nature’s Green Lawn Food 10-1-4 will help keep your lawn green all winter and into early spring. Red thread can sometimes be a problem in the fall and Bonide’s Infuse will help control it in one easy application.

Roses. Stop fertilizing and leave a few finished blooms to form hips. Don’t do any hard pruning, just a little sniping to tidy them up.

Once the nights get into the 30s we can do some serious mulching and pruning.

Perennials. There are still some late bloomers that look great: asters, mums, Japanese anemones, cone flowers, Russian sage, sedum and toad lilies.

Ornamental grasses are just spectacular right now.

Enjoy the last blooms of the season and don’t rush to tidy things up. There are a lot of seeds in those old flower heads that the birds will enjoy. Wait until the first frost to really start cleaning up the perennial beds. In fact, you can even wait until mid- to late February to do it.

Containers. It’s time to clean out your containers of summer color and replant with hardy perennials, ground covers and even shrubs for the winter. For color, of course, nothing beats pansies and violas. Try some E.B. Stone Organic’s Pansy and Fall Flower Food, which contains seabird guano, a more readily soluble form of organic nitrogen.

Bulbs. This is the month to get serious about planting bulbs. (See D1. ) With some careful planning, you can have blooming bulbs from January until June, sometimes all in the same pot. Don’t forget to add

some E.B. Stone Organic’s Bone Meal, which contains 15 percent phosphorus, an ingredient that bulbs love.

Vegetables. Plant fall crops now and control winter weeds by either laying a 1-inch layer of compost or planting a cover crop.

Building a cloche (a temporary greenhouse-type structure) will also help to produce a successful winter crop. Root and leaf crops can both be planted this month. Garlic must be planted in the fall.

A: Your rubber Popeye figures were products sold

by N. Shure and Co., a wholesaler and importer of toys and novelty items that operated in Chicago from 1888 until 1967. The company claimed to be the World’s Largest Novelty House, and sold popular items such as china tea sets, magic sets, Lincoln Logs, metal clamp-on roller skates, plush toys and toys related to Shirley Temple, Flash Gordon, Dick Tracy, the Dionne Quintuplets, Popeye and many other others. Rubber toys deteriorate. Your figures are from 1935 and can’t be fixed, so you should just throw them away. They’re not rare, and are not worth much in good condition.

Stoneware was out of favor by about 1910, after the inventions of canning in glass jars and refrigeration.

Now collectors consider salt-glazed stoneware folk art. Prices are determined by rarity, unusual decoration or known maker. Your jug is worth about $80 to $100.

Q: I have an old RCA Victor 78RPM record with “When I Grow too Old to Dream” on one side and “Home on the Range” on the other. The label reads that it’s by Dick Leibert, who played the Music Hall Organ at Radio City in New York. Is it worth anything?

A: Dick Leibert started his career as an organist at Loew’s Palace Theater in Washington, D.C. He moved to New York City and became the

first organist at Radio City Music Hall when the organ was installed in 1932. He retired in the 1970s. Leibert also played the organ for radio shows and radio soap operas. He made many recordings for RCA and Westminster. Most old records sell for $5 or less. Rock ’n’ roll, jazz, and rhythm and blues records from the 1950s and ’60s sell for about $10 if in good playable condition. Records by some well-known musicians sell for more than $100. A used record dealer can tell you what your record is worth.

Tip: Never steam-clean an old Oriental rug. It will remove the natural lanolin in the wool. Wash the rug with mild soap and water.

Returning Darwin Hybrid tulips: Although, Curless says, “Tulips aren’t very good perennials,” he suggests the Darwin Hybrids as offering the most promise for a repeat season of spring blooms. For best results, Heath recommends planting these Darwins deep (8 to 10 inches), then later breaking off the blooms’ old seed heads to help plants conserve energy and prevent disease for the following season.

After-April alliums: Extend the spring bulb show with bulbs that will bloom from May to early June. Alliums, ornamental onion bulbs, are hardy, long lasting and lovely.

Heath recommends “Gladiator” for its softballsize blooms and strong stems; it’s 3 to 4 feet tall. He cautions gardeners not to overwater these and other alliums. “After blooming, they like to sleep in a dry bed during their summer dormant period,” he says. For a smaller, more affordable option, Curless suggests Moly alliums.

Container minis: Pot up some miniature bulbs for spring containers. Heath’s

Spanish bluebells (Hyacinthoides hispanica) and summer snowflakes (Leucojum aestivum), two underused, deerresistant treasures. For Spanish bluebells, Heath prefers “Excelsior,” which is considered the king of Spanish bluebells, with its supersized blossoms. He suggests planting these bulbs in river-like swaths in either shade or sun if you have the room. Curless says snowflakes are great performers throughout the country. “They tolerate most conditions, even damp areas and some shade,” he says. “Plus, they are showier and less invasive than lily of the valley.”

Wild tulips: Plant ancient tulip varieties discovered in far-off places such as Turkish alpine meadows or Asian mountainsides. “In spring, many people want brash color, but several species tulips like “Tinka” are charming and delightful,” Curless says. As predecessors to today’s bold hybrids, these dainty varieties are being grown and sold for their nostalgia and adaptability. Try them in a rock garden or along a border.

Getting over ‘not-pretty-enough’ putdown

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion.

Hi Carolyn: My first boyfriend (first real relationship, first sex, first I-loveyou) told me I “wasn’t pretty enough,” and though I’ve worked through it in therapy, I find it loitering around in there like some bad influence in front of the town Wal-Mart. I do yoga all the time and work out and so on.

Your advice (on feeling unlovable for being overweight) made me realize how much I’ve still had that hateful piece of toxicity rumbling around my head, informing things. What’s the best way to get it out?

— Body Stuff Wow — what a nasty thing to have haunting you, I’m sorry.

What amazes me is how we tend to allow these things into our consciousness as Truth, instead of calmly and convincingly impeaching their source. Maybe it sticks when it fits the way we already see ourselves?

I saw two things immediately as I read your post: (1) Maybe you weren’t “pretty enough,” but he wasn’t kind, and of the two supposed shortcomings here, his was the one a person can control. Plus, over time we become immune in a way to a person’s appearance, familiar to the point of not seeing, but true warmth and kindness

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT never get old.

(2) Could he possibly have done a better job of exposing himself as a “me” guy, in so few words, than he did with, “You’re not pretty enough”? In four words (five for word nerds who count a contraction as two), he not only declared himself good-looking and therefore deserving of good-looking women, a specious connection unto itself, but also implied that he was somehow an objective judge of looks.

We all on some level know, of course, that a random passerby might find your looks appealing and his kind of meh, because that’s exactly the kind of room subjectivity leaves. Nevertheless knowing this never seems to prevent a negative review of our appearance from arriving with the force of a worldwide consensus.

Re: “Not pretty enough”: .. is pretty much by-the-book emotional manipulation. My first love/sex/whole-nine-yards boyfriend did all the same to me, without the kindness to leave the “and I’m attractive enough to get anyone I want, so you’re lucky to have wonderful me” as an unsaid implication. I will echo Carolyn when I say that will mess you up in a big way, and it is very, very hard to let go of that. My following two relationships were gems like, “You know, you’d be really pretty if you lost some weight!” and, “Well, maybe no one else will think you’re beautiful, but ... ,” so I am still getting used to my relationship now where my partner actually seems to believe the nice things he says about me. You’re not alone, letter-writer, and there are lots of us Not Pretty Enoughs rooting for you.

Man frets over ailing ex, pregnant girlfriend Dear Abby: My situation is upsetting and I don’t know what to do anymore.

My girlfriend, “Dana,” is pregnant. My ex-wife showed up at our door with terminal cancer and nowhere to go. When I told her she could stay with us, Dana moved out.

There is no one that my ex can rely on except me.

I am torn. I love Dana and don’t want to lose her, but I can’t turn my back on someone who has no one in her life who cares. I wish Dana could understand what I’m going through. — In Turmoil In Wisconsin Dear In Turmoil: Are you absolutely certain about your ex-wife’s prognosis?

Have you verified it? Why is she your ex-wife? Why are you the only one in her life who cares? Has she burned all her other bridges?

Without more information, your question is a tough one to answer. But if you love Dana, then the wrong woman is living with you. While you don’t have to turn your back on your ex if she truly is terminal, you should absolutely find her other living arrangements.

Dear Abby: I am five years older than my fiance.

He has never been married and has a daughter. We have been together for a few years, and something has happened to make me wonder about him.

I thought it was funny that he bought Cosmopolitan magazine every month and talked about his flat belly. But I recently found my Victoria’s Secret catalog hidden in his toolbox. I have also seen him look at other, much younger women. Am I making something out of nothing?

men “look.” It goes along with being male. As to his having stashed your lingerie catalog in his toolbox, that’s rather chaste considering the number of men who buy Playboy, Hustler and watch online videos.

I don’t know what conclusions you’re jumping to, but you’ll be better off clearing the air with your boyfriend rather than stewing about it. If you do it good-naturedly, it shouldn’t make him defensive, and you’ll get the answers you’re looking for.

Dear Abby: I’m 16 and lead a pretty good life. I attend a fantastic school, do well, have lots of friends and am overall happy. I have siblings and a mom who love me. The thing is — I don’t love her. It’s not because of “teenage angst”; I just don’t like her as a person. I’m polite to her and she doesn’t know how I feel. How should I handle this? — Concerned Daughter In San Francisco Dear Concerned Daughter: I think you should “handle it” by keeping your trap shut. Not every mother likes/loves her daughter all the time either, but the feeling usually passes. Consider this: Because you have so many positive things going on in your life, your mother may have had something to do with it, so try to be a little less judgmental.

The Who reschedules tour dates

Lady Gaga is Billboard’s woman of the year

NEW YORK — The Who have announced the rescheduled dates for their axed fall tour, now kicking off in February 2016.

The band said Tuesday that “The Who Hits 50!” tour will start Feb. 27 in Detroit. The band’s fall tour was canceled this month as lead singer Roger Daltrey recovers from viral meningitis.

Daltrey said in a statement that “I am now on the mend and feeling a lot better.” Guitarist Pete Townshend added that the band “will be coming back stronger than ever!”

Tickets for the originally scheduled shows will be honored at the new dates.

The tour, celebrating The Who’s 50th anniversary, also will visit New

NEW YORK — Lady Gaga is the woman of the year, according to Billboard magazine.

Billboard announced Tuesday that the pop star will be honored at its Dec. 11 Women in Music event in New York City. The decadeold event will be televised for the first time, Lady Gaga on Lifetime on Dec. 18.

Gaga released the collaborative jazz album, “Cheek to Cheek,” with Tony Bennett last year. It won a Grammy Award, and the duo performed songs from the album on a 36-date tour.

Gaga also plans to release an album next year and will star in FX’s “American Horror Story: Hotel,” which premieres Oct. 7.

The Women in Music event also honors the year’s 50 most powerful female executives in the music industry.

Catherine Coulson, who played Minaj gets TV sitcom; Log Lady in ‘Twin Peaks,’ dies 50 Cent inks Starz deal ASHLAND, Ore. — Catherine E. Coulson, an actress best known as the quirky Log Lady in the TV series “Twin Peaks,” has died.

Amy Richard with the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, where Coulson appeared in plays over the course of 22 seasons, said Coulson died Monday

at her home in Ashland, Oregon. Coulson was 71 and had been battling cancer.

Richard said Coulson met “Twin Peaks” director David Lynch in the early 1970s at an acting workshop at the American Film Institute in Los Angeles, and he cast her as a nurse in his movie

“Eraserhead.”

She also served as assistant director, still photographer and special effects technician on the film.

In 1990 Lynch cast her as Margaret in “Twin Peaks,” a mysterious woman who carries around a log.

Is your home ready for the winter?

1400391

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

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

Clean gutters and make sure they drain properly.

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

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

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

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

Check your deck or balcony. Make sure railings and

SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER

GET READY FOR WINTER Spring isn’t the only time of year to do a thorough cleanup; preparing your home for the winter also requires some cleaning chores.

Hardware

steps are safe, and replace rotten or damaged planks.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Test your water if you have a well.

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