EVERETT — After three years of dramatic growth, Aviation Technical Services is still looking to expand. And it has a new investor that can help cover the costs. A New York-based private equity firm, JLL Partners, bought into the company, replacing some shareholders looking to divest. The deal did not affect the company’s ownership structure, said ATS CEO Matt Yerbic, who is still the largest shareholder. “The management team hasn’t changed.” That team has led the company through rapid growth. ATS has opened or bought facilities in Kansas City, Missouri, Moses Lake and near Dallas. “We’ve effectively doubled the business in the last three years” in terms of employees and revenue, he said. The privately held company does not disclose its revenue. It has about 1,500 workers in Washington — at Paine Field and Moses Lake — and about 400 in Missouri and Texas. Yerbic led a group of local investors who bought the company from a Sydney, Australia-based investment bank, Macquarie Group, in 2013. The new owners included Yerbic, other individual investors, Wells Fargo, NewSpring Capital of Radnor, Pennsylvania, and Greenpoint Technologies of

folks should be scared of applying. The bare minimum requirement isn’t too rough: You need to have a bachelor’s degree in science, math, engineering, or some other technology field — and on top of that, you need either three years of related career experience or 1,000 hours of time logged piloting a jet. So hey, nerds: Apply! Nothing is stopping you. If you’re considered

highly qualified — which likely requires at least one advanced degree or a lot of piloting experience — you’ll be brought in for an extensive interview, examination, and physical testing process. Of course, the selection process is going to be pretty rigorous. Lots of people are going to apply, and NASA has only ever had about 300 astronauts — total. When NASA put

out a call for applications in 2011, they received more than 6,100 applications and only selected eight as potential future astronauts. That’s an acceptance rate of just over 0.1 percent. Not to mention the fact that you still have to get through training after making the cut. But a 0.1 percent chance is better than a 0 percent chance, which is what your odds of becoming an astronaut are if you just sit around moping. Just think: In a few years, your poop could be burning up like a shooting star. Dream big.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A mysterious, submarinelike vessel appeared off the coast of Highland Beach just over a week ago, and its discovery has officials and beachgoers wondering exactly what it is and how it got there. The Coast Guard confirmed they investigated the object, but they don’t know what it is. Mark Engelhardt, of Austin, Texas, was in town visiting his parents when he found a 20-footlong steel vessel shaped like a submarine beached about 150 yards off the coast. The bright orange tail of the vessel caught his eye from the beach, as it is clearly visible above the water from shore. The vessel is sunk at a 45-degree angle. Engelhardt, 52, said he and other beachgoers were curious about what it was, so on Oct. 26 he put on his goggles and started swimming. What he found shocked him. “We thought it was a buoy or something that fell off a ship,” he said. “But it’s definitely not that.”

( It’s big! ) 1447212

Here’s how he described it: It’s a cylindrical steel vessel that appears to be welded together. Inside, there’s a 6-cylinder engine and a battery. Outside, there are two hatches that appear to allow someone to get in and out. The tail is painted bright orange, and the front is pointed. He estimates it’s about 3 ½ feet in diameter. “I come from Texas three times a year to see my parents, to catch some sun, hang out by the pool and then this happens,” he said. With an underwater camera, Engelhardt snapped some shots and notified authorities. Coast Guard officials described it as an “obstructive” object in the water and plan to investigate whether there are any signs of who built it, where it came from or if it belongs to anyone. Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Teri Barbera confirmed that the Sheriff’s Office checked out a submarinelike vessel in the water, but is not investigating any further. In the meantime, Coast Guard officials said they issued a warning to mariners and put a light on the tail to alert boaters. They don’t plan to tow it, officials said. Engelhardt said while he can’t be entirely sure it’s a submarine, he said it’s the spitting image of one. He and his parents theorize it was used to smuggle drugs or other nefarious objects ashore, but officials haven’t confirmed that. “What else could be in something like that?” Engelhardt said. “This is crazy. This is like, whoa.” ENDS THURSDAY @ 7PM!!

STOCKHOLM — Aviation officials said a solar storm knocked out the air traffic control systems in Sweden on Wednesday, prompting them to close the country’s airspace for more than an hour. The civil aviation authority said the solar storm created disturbances in the Earth’s magnetic field, which affected radar installations in southern Sweden. No such problems were reported in neighboring countries. Agency spokesman Per Froberg said flights disappeared from radar screens in Swedish air traffic control towers during the blackout, which lasted about an hour until 5:30 p.m. Froberg said it was unclear why the impact was so severe, adding the last time something similar happened in Sweden was in 1999. “We’re working on sorting out the delays.

Landlord, state agree to settle bias claims By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — The owners of an Everett apartment building have entered into an agreement with the state Attorney General’s Office to settle racial discrimination claims. The agreement, called an “assurance of discontinuance,” states Renton-based DSB Investments LLC admitted to engaging in unfair real estate practices and employed discriminatory terms and conditions in connection with its management of

the Glacier View Apartments in Everett. As part of the agreement between the state and the company, the company’s admission of wrongdoing “shall not be considered as an admission of violation for any purpose,” and that no further penalties would be assessed if the company keeps its end of the bargain. According to the agreement March 11, the managers of Glacier View, located at 5904 Highway Place in Everett, towed cars owned by African American tenants while allowing other cars

to remain on the property. Managers also made statements about cars owned by black tenants as devaluing the property, and refused to perform or delayed necessary maintenance or repairs to units because the tenants had previously exercised their fair housing rights. Joshua Alhadeff, managing partner and asset manager of DSB Investments, did not return a call for comment, and Jeana Poloni of the Loeffler Law Group, which represents DSB Investments, declined to comment on the case.

Tina Lewis, an African American tenant whose vehicles were towed, also provided a signed statement releasing DSB from all claims related to the towing of her cars. According to the agreement, DSB will stop those unfair practices, adopt a nondiscrimination policy covering all of its residential properties, and have all staff and officers of DSB involved in property leasing and management undergo fair housing training by an independent third party approved by the Attorney General’s office.

DSB also is required to maintain all records regarding vehicle towing, maintenance requests and complaints regarding the nondiscrimination policy for inspection by the Attorney General’s office. DSB also will pay $657.38 in towing expenses incurred by a tenant, plus $1,250 in attorney’s fees. The agreement was approved by a King County Superior Court judge Tuesday.

of boardwalk. “We solved a 10-year problem and people are very excited,” Snohomish County Parks Director Tom Teigen said. Despite the wet walkway, it remained popular. The county estimates that 52,427 people strolled along the path in 2014. This year, more than 37,000 have hoofed it, so far. “It’s one of the few places in the area you can walk through a wetland on a floating boardwalk with an up-close view of wildlife and plants,” county park planner Kevin Teague said. “It’s pretty special.” The city of Mill Creek eventually wants to extend the North Creek Trail to connect with the boardwalk, Community and Economic Development Director

EVERETT — A former Monroe police sergeant was described as both a cunning manipulator and a well-meaning fool as lawyers made their final pitches Wednesday as his trial on sex crimes came to a close. A Snohomish County Superior Court jury was scheduled to begin deliberating Thursday morning the case against Carlos Alberto Martinez. Martinez, 61, is charged with voyeurism and possession of depictions of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct, both felonies. Jurors listened to more than two weeks of testimony about his connection to a young woman whom he met when she was 10 and a student in his drugabuse resistance class. Now 26, she eventually moved to Texas where she became his live-in girlfriend. When the relationship dissolved in 2011, she went to police with videos that Martinez made of her showering at his Monroe home in 2004. At the time, she was 15 and the family babysitter. The evidence is clear that Martinez not only created the videos without the young woman’s consent but he did so for his sexual gratification, deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul said in closing arguments. Along the way Martinez preyed on the former babysitter’s trust and affection, touching her sexually when she was still in her early teens and encouraging her

Walking on water in Mill Creek By Amy Nile Herald Writer

MILL CREEK — Steve Beatty has remained steadfast in taking his soggy stroll, true to the sodden style of the Pacific Northwest. Rain or shine, the 66-year-old has sauntered along the sinking boardwalk at North Creek Park almost every day for years. The wooden path through the 81-acre park is supposed to float on a marsh. But, until recently, the boardwalk was sagging into the water in spots. Snohomish County has finished $552,726 worth of repairs to the three-quarter mile pathway, south of 164th Street SE, just west of the Bothell-Everett Highway. The boardwalk was built in 1997, giving people an panorama of a bog nestled in suburbia. But

within a couple of years, some of the floats began to fail. Sections of the path started get stuck in the mud and were covered with water. Many people, including Beatty,

schlepped on, getting soaked along the way. Others turned back. In 2011, the county started fixing the worst spots. It has since repaired 364 sections

counties. It was losing in King County where the largest mass of pro-tax voters lives, so the final outcome is sure to be closer. Regardless of the ending margin, Eyman said the results show when it comes to taxes, most voters would like to see them go down if they can and make it harder for them to go up if

they can’t. Eyman celebrated this political touchdown with a little extra step in his victory dance. He obviously enjoyed repelling foes who contended the measure amounted to blackmailing lawmakers with the loss of billions of sales tax dollars for schools and state programs if they didn’t pass the tax-limiting constitutional amendment.

attention, she said. The experience “chained her to him, not literally, but emotionally and psychologically,” Paul said. She described the young woman as “not so much a witness in this case as a human exhibit” of the harm that is done by adults who groom teens for sex. Martinez’ attorney, Mark Mestel, said the evidence is clear his client was pursued by the former babysitter and that they did not

engage in sex until she was an adult. Evidence shows she’s somebody who lied to her family about why she was living in Texas, told differing stories to detectives about what happened to her over the years, and that she knew about the tapes long before she went to police, Mestel said. The attorney said he did not enjoy asking questions that made her cry or confronting her with explicit videos, but said it was necessary to get to the truth.

Police seek crash witnesses Herald staff DARRINGTON — Detectives are looking for witnesses to a collision between two vehicles that resulted in the death of Austin Hooper, of Darrington. The crash occurred near the 30800 block of Swede Heaven Road around 2 a.m. Oct. 28. It involved a small, darkcolored Mazda 3 and a dark-colored Ford F-250

pickup truck. Hooper, 21, was the driver of the truck. Detectives with the Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office are hoping to speak with anyone who may have witnessed the behaviors of either driver up to the point of the collision. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the sheriff’s office anonymous tip line at 425-388-3845.

Eyman also relished that most voters apparently didn’t give a hoot he was the driving force behind the initiative, though opponents strived to disparage the measure by tying his name to it. This could have been a year for such a tactic to work. Eyman is under investigation by Attorney General Bob Ferguson for allegedly breaking a bunch of election laws in 2012 in order to pass his previous anti-tax measure. He’s been publicly accused of secretly moving

hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign contributions between two initiative campaigns and failing to disclose making $300,000 for himself in the process. “They threw everything they had at us,” Eyman said. Now, in an ironic twist, before Ferguson begins prosecuting Eyman for any past electoral hanky-panky, he could be defending the legitimacy of the initiative entrepreneur’s latest undertaking. Opponents vowed

The young woman “has no credibility,” he said. “It is sad. It is sad to anybody who has a shred of human compassion.” As for his client, Mestel said it’s clear that Martinez is a womanizer who was “camera crazy” and liked to create a visual record of his sex life — especially with the young woman. But Mestel said the evidence also shows Martinez cared for her well-being when she was a teen and decided to secretly record her taking showers because he was worried she was cutting herself. It was “an extremely poor exercise in judgment,” but

not sexually motivated, Mestel said. There were other ways Martinez could have addressed his concerns without resorting to surveillance cameras, Paul countered. They included going to the girl’s parents with concerns, or seeking help from school counselors, child social workers and other police officers. Instead, Martinez told no one about his recordings. “It was secret and it was secret for a reason,” Paul said. Scott North: 425-3393431; north@heraldnet.com. Twitter: @snorthnews.

Tom Rogers said. The two-segment trail starts at McCollum Pioneer Park in south Everett and winds its way 2.5 miles through Mill Creek. It stops short of the boardwalk at North Creek Park, creating a break in the trail before it picks up north of Bothell. Mill Creek is considering improvements to the north end of the path. It wants

to add art, put in amenities and promote it to draw people to the nearby Town Center and other businesses, Rogers said. Snohomish County is working to link the trail’s two segments. It is investing almost $1 million into that project, said Teigen, the parks director. The southern section of existing trail starts north of Bothell at 214th Street SE. It stretches 5 miles south

Eyman figured this might happen. “We knew where the legal landmines were and designed the initiative in a way to not step on any of those landmines,” he said. If he’s right, any explosions this measure sets off will be in the Legislature and on the 2016 campaign trail. Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet. com.

Trudeau sworn in as new prime minister By Rob Gillies Associated Press

TORONTO — Justin Trudeau was sworn in Wednesday as Canada’s new Liberal prime minister, and his new Cabinet ministers vowed to honor campaign pledges to settle 25,000 Syrian refugees by the end of the year. Trudeau, the son of the late iconic Liberal Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, also promised a less controlling style of “government by Cabinet” after almost 10 years of Conservative rule under Stephen Harper. “Government by Cabinet is back,” Trudeau said, vowing to have an open and transparent government. Power in Harper’s government was centered around his office. The Cabinet held its first meeting Wednesday and then faced the media — a departure from the Harper era. Harper Cabinet meetings were held in secret and ministers never spoke after them. Immigration Minister John McCallum said it remains the new

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau speaks to the media as he leaves Rideau Hall in Ottawa on Wednesday after being sworn in as prime minister. The 43-year-old son of late Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau became the second youngest prime minister in Canadian history.

government’s “firm objective” to settle 25,000 Syrian refugees in Canada before the end of the year. “I think we will find a great desire across the country to help us achieve this objective,” McCallum said. “I will be working very hard to achieve that goal.” Harper had declined to resettle more Syrian refugees, despite the haunting image of a drowned 3-yearold boy washed up on a Turkish beach that focused global attention on the

migrant crisis stemming from the civil war. The boy had relatives in Canada. Judy Foote, the new Minister of Public Services and Procurement, also said the Trudeau government will honor its campaign pledge not to buy the next generation F-35 fighter jets from Lockheed Martin’s troubled Joint Strike Fighter program. The F-35 is the Pentagon’s most expensive weapons program, aiming to replace a wide range

of existing aircraft for the U.S. and several partner countries. Canada had previously talked about buying 65 jets from the program, but Trudeau has said he wants a cheaper option. The 43-year-old Trudeau, a former school teacher and member of Parliament since 2008, became the second youngest prime minister in Canadian history. His father served as prime minister from 1968 to 1984 with a short interruption and remains one of the few Canadian politicians known in other countries. “I think of my father and how pleased he must be that Canada so firmly came together around an ambitious vision for the country that we presented,” Trudeau said. “But my thoughts today, sorry Dad, aren’t mostly on him, but with my own kids and the kids across Canada. We are going to work very hard to ensure we have a better future.” The new prime minister now has the chance to restore his father’s Liberal

legacy, providing a generational change in the party’s leadership. Most of Trudeau’s Cabinet members are between the ages of 35 and 50. He said he’s appointed a Cabinet that looks like Canada. Former failed Liberal leader Stephane Dion, who lost an election for the party previously, is the new foreign affairs minister while Toronto businessman Bill Morneau is the new finance minister. Harjit Sajjan, a former Canadian soldier, Afghanistan war veteran and police officer, is the new defense minister. Chrystia Freeland, a former media executive and author, is the new trade minister. Women make up half of the Cabinet. Asked why gender balance is important, Trudeau said: “Because it’s 2015.” Trudeau talks often about “sunny ways” and ran a campaign with an optimistic theme. His youthful demeanor and enthusiasm also provides a sharp contrast with the sober and dour

Harper, who stepped down as prime minister just ahead of the swearing-in ceremony. Trudeau’s victory should improve Canada’s ties with the United States. Harper was angered by President Barack Obama’s reluctance to approve the Keystone XL pipeline from Alberta to Texas and it damaged relations. Although Trudeau supports the pipeline, he argues relations should not hinge on the project. Harper, one of the longest-serving Western leaders, fought hard to reverse the image of a liberal Canada, cutting corporate and sales taxes and removing Canada from a climate change agreement. Trudeau, by contrast, tapped into an appetite for change with a plan to reject austerity and spend billions on infrastructure, running deficits for three years to do so. Trudeau has a busy agenda ahead with four global conferences to attend, including the G-20 summit in Turkey and the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Paris.

The company opened a new facility in Moses Lake in Central Washington in 2013. Last year, it opened a Midwest location in Kansas City and it bought Texas Air Composites, which specializes in working with composite materials. “Right now, we have plenty of things to think about,” Yerbic said. That includes getting the Kansas City operation completely up and running. After that, “we’re actively considering areas where our customers need support,” he said.

Election: Community Transit sales gains more votes From Page A1

“You run to win in this business and that’s what I did. I’m OK with it,” he said. “I have to hand it to Dave. He did a great job of sticking to his message.” In breaking down his defeat, Lovick said Somers’ made the county’s challenges with its budget and the courthouse project “look they were my problems.” And, he said, even if he had run the perfect campaign, he couldn’t survive the onslaught of mailers from Master Builders Association of King and Snohomish Counties and robocalls featuring County Auditor Carolyn Weikel and others slamming his record. “It is the playbook for

how to do it,” he said. But Lovick hinted it might not be the last time his name appears on a ballot. “Don’t write my obituary quite yet,” he said. Meanwhile Wednesday, County Councilman Brian Sullivan’s fortunes brightened as he edged in front of challenger Greg Tisdel in the latest round of ballot counting completed Wednesday. Sullivan, who trailed by 98 votes on election night, found himself leading Tisdel by 52 votes Wednesday in the all-Democratic contest for the 2nd District seat. Sullivan’s vote percentage stood at 49.8 to Tisdel’s 49.3. “No surprise,” Tisdel said Wednesday. “I think it’ll

flip-flop all the way to the end.” Meanwhile, the margin of support for a sales tax hike sought by Community Transit grew in the latest round of ballot counting. Proposition 1, which is a 0.3 percent sales tax increase sought by Community Transit, was passing with 51 percent of the votes. The 1,067-vote margin between supporters and opponents was 300 votes more than election night. “It’s obviously good news,” CT spokesman Martin Munguia said. “We’re being cautiously optimistic. We don’t know how many votes are left to count in the district. It’s definitely a good trend.”

The measure would add about 3 cents to a $10 purchase within the boundaries of Community Transit’s taxing district, starting in April 2016. The district includes most of the county’s urban areas, except Everett, which is served by Everett Transit. Much of the Highway 9 corridor is also excluded. Community Transit hasn’t lost a countywide ballot measure since it was established almost 40 years ago. Voters approved three previous 0.3 percent tax increases to pay for bus services in 2001, 1990 and 1976. In the city of Snohomish, Mayor Karen Guzak clung to a slim 22-vote lead over challenger Larry

Countryman while newcomer Zachary Wilde led City Councilman Paul Kaftanski by just 23 votes. Guzak is a two-term incumbent who has served as mayor for six of her eight years on the City Council. Business owner Countryman previously served 12 years on the council. He wants back on because he said he’s concerned about the direction the city has taken. Kaftanski, the parks director for the city of Everett, is completing his first term on the council. Wilde, a Boeing project manager, said he entered the race because neighbors told him the City Council wasn’t listening to people and making rash decisions.

And something odd might be developing in Index. Chuck Davis is seeking to retain his seat on the Town Council and no one filed to run against him. But as of Wednesday his victory wasn’t certain because there were 24 write-in votes and he had received only 19 votes. Garth Fell, Snohomish County elections manager, said once all ballots are tallied election officials will determine who received those write-in votes. If a person qualified to hold a council seat winds up with more votes than Davis, they would be declared the winner, he said. Jerry Cornfield: 360-3528623; jcornfield@heraldnet. com

collected in 2017, $12.6 million in 2018, $13 million in 2019 and $13.5 million in 2020. District officials are assuming there will be no change in statewide taxing limits, increases in property values each year and no substantial financial effect

from declining enrollment, according to board documents. The district does not have any outstanding bonds for major construction. There is one other levy on the books through 2017 for upgrades to school buildings and technology. The tax rate for that levy is set to drop

about 90 percent — from $1.44 per $1,000 assessed value to 15 cents per $1,000 — in 2018, when it will fund technology but not building improvements, Platt said. Until then, a maintenance and operations renewal combined with the outstanding facilities and technology levy

would total about $3.72 per $1,000 assessed value, or about $1,116 per year on a $300,000 home. “We have already conducted over 50 meetings with local community groups (and) clubs,” Platt said in an email Wednesday. “Any future public discussions of the replacement

levy will be held during regularly scheduled board meetings.” Officials plan to mail a flier about the levy by the end of the month. The Stanwood-Camano School Board does not have any other measures for the February ballot, Platt said. A chart of existing

and planned school tax measures shows voters renewing the maintenance and operations levy again in 2020 and 2024. The district also is looking at building a new high school and might seek voter approval in 2017 for a bond measure. Kari Bray: 425-339-3439; kbray@heraldnet.com.

Lawsuit aims to reinstate Oregon driver cards law By Gosia Wozniacka Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — An Oregon nonprofit filed a lawsuit Wednesday seeking to reinstate a state law that would have allowed people to get driver’s cards if they can’t prove they are in the U.S. legally. The law was approved by the Legislature in 2013 then overturned by voters the following year in a referendum. In its lawsuit, the Oregon Law Center says it’s illegal for Oregon to enforce Measure 88 because it was motivated by a desire to regulate immigration laws and that’s the job of the federal government. The group says the measure took driving privileges away from immigrants who lack legal status for reasons that have “no rational relationship to traffic safety or any other state interest that is legitimate.” The lawsuit also says the measure was driven by animosity and the desire to punish or to avoid rewarding a politically unpopular minority, and targets a group of people for unequal treatment based

on their Mexican and Central American national origin. As a result, it is discriminatory and violates the U.S Constitution, the suit says. The lawsuit does not question the general validity of Oregon’s citizen initiative process. Defendants targeted in the lawsuit include Gov. Kate Brown, the director the state Department of Transportation, several Transportation Commission members, and the administrator of the Oregon DMV. State Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum’s spokeswoman Kristina Edmunson said the Oregon Department of Justice will represent the defendants. Edmunson declined to comment on the litigation. About 120,000 immigrants in Oregon lack legal status, according to the Pew Research Center. They make up about 3 percent of the state’s total population. More than 80 percent have lived in the country for more than five years and many have U.S. citizen children. The complaint was filed in the name of five

anonymous immigrants who would have qualified for the driver’s cards and two organizations that serve Latinos and are affected by their inability to drive. The suit seeks to be certified as a class action that includes all residents who have lived in the state for more than one year and are denied driving

privileges solely because they are unable to prove legal presence. The state estimated that, were it not for the passage of Measure 88, it would have issued about 84,000 driver’s cards in the first year after the law took effect. Many would have been issued to immigrants who were long time

residents and whose driver’s licenses had expired, according to a state analysis. In the past, Oregon allowed state residents to get a driver’s license regardless of legal status. But in 2008, to make licenses compliant with the federal REAL ID Act, legislators enacted a law

that required Oregonians to show proof of legal presence in the U.S. to obtain a license. The state reversed course in 2013, joining seven other states in granting driving privileges to immigrants lacking legal status. Oregon voters, by a margin of 66 percent to 34 percent cancelled that law before it went into effect. Proponents of Measure 88 — mostly represented by the group Oregonians for Immigration Reform — said granting the driver cards would lead to more immigrants without legal status moving to Oregon, taking jobs and pushing up crime rates. Andrea Miller, director of the Oregon immigrantrights group Causa which pushed for the driver card law, said Measure 88’s invalidation of the law has led to a crisis in the Latino community. “Mothers and fathers are struggling to take their kids to school, workers in the field are struggling to get to work, and children who come of age have to drive their family around to take care of basic needs,” Miller said.

Lawmakers, historians and tribal members came to a solution by spending months — described as painful Wednesday — working on appropriate explanatory language to post on plaques under the murals to offer historical context to the images. However, now that the law school is occupying the building, the debate has resurfaced. “Covering the murals is not erasing history,” said Mark Adams, dean of the university law school. “The display of the murals says, particularly to our Native American and African American students, that people like you are not welcome here.” Ty Simpson, a member of the Nez Perce Tribe, echoed support for covering the murals. “I don’t see a vibrant history in the mural. I see pain. I see genocide that has longreaching impacts on our people today,” Simpson said.

BOISE, Idaho — Two murals depicting the lynching of an American Indian in a former Idaho county courthouse are once again at the center of a disagreement over whether they should be displayed or covered up as offensive. Historic preservationists and members of Idaho’s tribes oppose covering the 75-year-old murals that were commissioned as part of a Depression-era program to help put artists to work, arguing that the public can learn from history’s mistakes. However, the University of Idaho — currently leasing the building as a satellite campus of its law school — contends the murals create a negative learning space. State officials held a public hearing Wednesday to gather public input as they consider weighing in on the issue. The murals have been covered ever since the

Twenty-six murals were painted in southern California and mounted in the former Ada County courthouse in 1940. Because the murals are installed as part of the historic building’s staircase wall, the state is banned from tampering or destroying the paintings. “The history of art is the history of humanity in all of its complexity,” said Michael Faison, executive director of the Idaho Commission on the Arts. “The murals should be displayed with the proper contextualized plaques.” Much the same arguments about the murals were repeated nearly nine years ago when lawmakers began preparing to move into the courthouse while the Capitol underwent renovations.

States link student learning to teacher reviews Associated Press

Eighth grade algebra students line up to speak to teacher Mark Olsen in his classroom at Thomaston High School in Thomaston, Connecticut.

parents who worry about over-testing. “Student outcomes should be determined in a far more robust way than mainly using test scores, such as through student grades, projects, other student work and regular observations,” Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers said Wednesday. “Rather than test-and-punish systems, we need teacher evaluations that will help support and improve teaching and learning.” Parents, too, have registered concern. A recent Gallup Poll found 55 percent of those questioned opposed linking teacher evaluations to their students’ test scores. Among those with children in public schools opposition was stronger, at 63 percent. States bucking the national trend on linking student performance to teacher reviews were California, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska and Vermont. The report said those states have no formal state policy requiring teacher evaluations consider

Half of black millennials know of abuse by police Associated Press WASHINGTON — Long before the deaths of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Freddie Gray, more than half of African-American millennials indicated they, or someone they knew, had been victimized by violence or harassment from law enforcement, a new report says. The information, from the “Black Millennials in America” report issued by the Black Youth Project at the Study of Race, Politics and Culture at the University of Chicago, reflects starkly different attitudes among black, Latino, Asian and white millennials when it comes to policing, guns and the legal system in the United States. Researchers, who have surveyed millennials several times during the past decade, point out that the disparities existed well before the “Black Lives Matter” movement began. In the 2009 Mobilization and Change Survey, 54.4 percent of black millennials answered yes to the question “Have you or anyone you know experienced harassment or violence at the hands of the police?” Almost one-third of whites, 1 in 4 Latinos and 28 percent of Asian-Americans surveyed said yes to the same question. The study, released Wednesday, comes as the United States grapples with concerns over policing in minority communities following the deaths of Martin, 17, in Florida three years ago, Brown, 18, in Ferguson, Missouri, last year and Gray, 25, in Baltimore earlier this year. Their deaths, as well as

those of other black men and women, have inspired nationwide protests under the “Black Lives Matter” and “Say Her Name” monikers. But even while being the wellspring of those movements, a clear majority of black millennials — 71 percent — said in that same survey they believe police in their neighborhood were “there to protect you.” Eighty-five percent of whites, 76 percent of Hispanics and 89 percent of Asians also said police were in their neighborhood to protect them. “We know that young blacks are more likely to be harassed by the police. We know that they are more likely to mistrust their encounters with the police,” said Cathy Cohen, chair of the political science department at the University of Chicago and leader of the Black Youth Project. “But we also know from actually collecting data that a majority of them believe that police in their neighborhood are actually there to protect them, so I think it provides us with more complexity.” Another survey done by the project in 2013, the Black Youth Project Quarterly Survey, showed that the percentage of blacks and Latinos who said they knew people who carried guns had declined, but more of them knew someone who was the victim of gun violence. Twenty-four percent of blacks and 22 percent of Latino millennials said they or someone they knew “carried a gun in the last month.” Almost half of white millennials — 46 percent — said they knew of someone who

carried a gun. However, 22 percent of black millennials and 14 percent of Latino millennials said they or someone they knew were the victim of gun violence in the last year, compared with 8 percent of white millennials. It’s not surprising that young blacks and whites feel differently on these issues, given the different experiences the groups are reporting, said Jon Rogowski, an assistant political science professor at Washington University in St. Louis. For example, white millennials don’t report having to explain themselves to police, while millennials of color report that officers stopped them simply to question them about what they were up to, he said. “We see story after story about how this leads into a more combative situation which has escalated and led to, in some instances, tragic outcomes,” said Rogowski, who co-authored the Black Millennials In America report. “So the experiences that these different communities have had based on where they live and the kinds of policing procedures that are in place there, we would argue, lead to these different patterns.” After arrest, black millennials also don’t believe everyone gets fair treatment from the legal system in the United States. They’re not alone in this feeling, with only 38 percent of all millennials agreeing with the statement that “the American legal system treats all groups fairly” in the 2014 Black Youth Project survey.

the class is gaining anything, then something is off.” For 16 states, including Colorado and Connecticut, student growth is the key factor in teacher evaluations. In Washington, D.C., several hundred teachers have been fired since 2009 over poor performance reviews. Test scores made up 35 percent of evaluations for those teaching students in tested grades and subjects. But last year, the D.C. public school system suspended the practice of linking test scores to teacher evaluations while students adjust to new tests based on Common Core standards. The moratorium will be lifted next school year, according to the press secretary for schools Chancellor Kaya Henderson. The council’s Jacobs says no state considers student achievement as the sole criteria for judging teachers. Other measures, such as classroom observations and student surveys, are considered. The emphasis on test scores has long been a contentious issue with teachers’ unions and even

teachers,” said Minnich. According to the report, principals also are getting grades on student performance. The report said 18 states and Washington, D.C. use student growth as the key measure of how well their school chiefs are doing. In three states, Georgia, New Jersey and Ohio, the weight of student growth in principal evaluations is usually larger than in teacher evaluations, said the report. In New Jersey, for example, the weight of student growth counts for 50 percent of principal ratings. For teachers, the range is 30-50 percent.

WASHINGTON — The vast majority of states now require that teachers be evaluated, at least in part, on student test scores — up sharply from six years ago. And in many states, those performance reviews could lead to a pink slip. The comprehensive state-by-state analysis released Wednesday by the National Council on Teacher Quality shows 42 states and the District of Columbia have policies on the books requiring that student growth and achievement be considered in evaluations for public school teachers. In 2009, only 15 states linked scores to teacher reviews. In 28 states, teachers with “ineffective ratings are eligible for dismissal,” said the report by the Washington-based think tank. A majority of states adopted performancebased teacher evaluations as part of the Obama administration’s Race to the Top initiative, which has awarded $4 billion in grant money to states that promised reforms such as linking test scores to teacher reviews and adopting higher academic standards such as Common Core. Other states have been pushed to adopt reforms in exchange for administration waivers giving states a pass on some of the requirements of the Bush-era No Child Left Behind education law. More than 40 states have received waivers since 2012. “The bottom line of teaching is whether or not students are learning,” said Sandi Jacobs, the council’s senior vice president of state and district policy. “If you stand up in front of a classroom every day and deliver great lesson after great lesson but no one in

Hampshire and Texas have policies that exist on paper, in the form of waivers granted by the Education Department. But Jacobs says the council’s research turned up little evidence those states are linking teacher ratings to student achievement. Chris Minnich, executive director of the Council of Chief State School Officers, says most states recognize that how students are doing in the classroom is a critical part of the teacher’s role. “There were many factors that led to this shift — federal policy, state policy, however, the most basic reason for this shift was to make sure students are at the center of these conversations with

Bomb may have downed jet Associated Press LONDON — British and U.S. officials said Wednesday they have information suggesting the Russian jetliner that crashed in the Egyptian desert may have been brought down by a bomb, and Britain said it was suspending flights to and from the Sinai Peninsula indefinitely. Intercepted communications played a role in the tentative conclusion that the Islamic State group’s Sinai affiliate planted an explosive device on the plane, said a U.S. official briefed on the matter. The official and others said there had been no formal judgment rendered by the CIA or other intelligence agencies,

and that forensic evidence from the blast site, including the airplane’s black box, was still being analyzed. The official added that intelligence analysts don’t believe the operation was ordered by Islamic State leaders in Raqqa, Syria. Rather, they believe that if it was a bomb, it was planned and executed by the Islamic State’s affiliate in the Sinai, which operates autonomously. Other officials cautioned that intercepted communications can sometimes be misleading and that it’s possible the evidence will add up to a conclusion that there was no bomb. British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond said there

was a “significant possibility” the crash was caused by a bomb, and Britain was suspending flights to and from the Sinai resort of Sharm el-Sheikh indefinitely. After a meeting of the British government’s crisis committee, COBRA, Hammond said Britain was advising its citizens not to go on vacation to Sharm el-Sheikh, which is visited by hundreds of thousands of Britons a year. Meanwhile, Russian and Egyptian investigators said Wednesday that the cockpit voice recorder of the Metrojet Airbus 321-200 had suffered substantial damage in the weekend crash that killed 224 people. Information from the flight data recorder has

been successfully copied and handed over to investigators, the Russians said. Prime Minister David Cameron’s office said British aviation experts had been sent to Sharm el-Sheikh, where the flight originated, to assess security before British flights there would be allowed to resume. Several British flights due to leave Sharm el-Sheikh for the U.K. Wednesday were grounded, leaving hundreds of tourists stranded. Cameron’s 10 Downing St. office said late Wednesday that the team’s preliminary report “noted that the Egyptian authorities had stepped up their efforts but that more remains to be done.”

deputy and the ranking American civilian at NATO, said at last month’s official opening of Trident Juncture at Trapani air base in Sicily. On Wednesday, more than 500 paratroopers from the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, parachuted onto a military training ground in northeastern Spain after a nine-hour flight aboard C-17 Globemaster IIIs from their home base at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. “High ceiling, low winds, bright sky — it’s a beautiful day to be a paratrooper,” said Master Sgt. Patrick Malone, 31, of Stow, Ohio, a member of the

brigade’s advance party Earlier in the day, also as part of Trident Juncture, 1,800 troops from 12 NATO nations, backed by helicopters and tanks, simulated an attack against an imaginary enemy holed up in a mock village at the San Gregorio training ground near the Spanish city of Zaragoza. The displays are meant to showcase the alliance’s military muscle and the transAtlantic bond it was founded to safeguard. And NATO has said it wants other countries to witness what it’s doing. It said three Russian inspection teams arrived in

late October to examine Trident Juncture activities in Italy, Portugal and Spain, and that “in the interest of promoting transparency,” observers from 11 other countries, ranging from the United Arab Emirates to Mexico, have also been invited. So far, the Russians appear unpersuaded. They stayed away from Wednesday’s events at the San Gregorio training grounds, according to German Army Gen. Hans-Lothar Domroese, Trident Juncture’s commander. On Monday, Alexander Grushko, Moscow’s permanent representative to NATO, told the Rossiya-24 television channel that the “key process under way” at NATO these days is military planning that he said indicates the U.S.-led alliance is moving “from the policy of partnership to the policy of containing Russia.” The exercises, which end Nov. 6, will test the new, ultrafast-response “spearhead force” of 5,000 ground troops that has been created to reinforce NATO allies under threat in as little as two days. The war games, which took two years of planning, were rejiggered to add areas where many NATO officials say the alliance has been deficient, including defending against cyberattack.

Dolphins die after Navy uses sonar Associated Press HONOLULU — The National Marine Fisheries Service on Wednesday said it was investigating the death of two dolphins found washed ashore in California shortly after Navy ships were using sonar in nearby waters. Necropsies have been conducted, and the animals are being analyzed to try to determine what caused them to be stranded, agency spokesman Jim Milbury said. The dolphins were common bottlenose dolphins, Navy

Salt Lake City may have gay mayor SALT LAKE CITY — Vote tallies indicated Salt Lake City was poised to narrowly elect its first openly gay mayor in what would mark another milestone for the LGBT movement in the conservative state with a history of hostility toward gays and lesbians. Former state lawmaker Jackie Biskupski was leading two-term incumbent Ralph Becker by 1,450 votes, according to election results released late Tuesday. Nearly 24,000 county-wide ballots remained to be counted, but it was not yet known how many involved the mayor’s race, Salt Lake County Clerk Sherrie Swensen said. By state law, no more results will be released until the final canvass Nov. 17.

Kansas: Air rage incident A passenger who threatened to bring down an American Airlines flight was charged in federal court Wednesday after an inflight dispute that escalated after he was forbidden to smoke an e-cigarette. Jason Baroletti, 38, of Holbrook, New York, faces one count of interfering with the performance of a flight crew, a court filing shows. An FBI affidavit filed with the criminal complaint recounted witness statements alleging that Baroletti started smoking an electronic cigarette about 10 minutes after takeoff. He then asked for a beer to help his anxiety. Flight attendants refused to serve him alcohol, and he then allegedly told them he was “going to take the plane down.”

California: Train hero

Associated Press ZARAGOZA, Spain — NATO is putting on its most fearsome display of military might in over a decade, a choreographed large-scale movement of soldiers, ships and planes meant to hone its capabilities as well as transmit an unmistakable signal to Russia and other possible foes. The U.S.-led alliance’s aim is to train and exercise, but it is also “sending a very clear message to our nations and to any potential adversary,” NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday. “NATO does not seek confrontation,” Stoltenberg said. “But we stand ready to defend all allies.” For three weeks starting Oct. 21, more than 36,000 personnel from all 28 NATO allies and eight partner nations, as well as more than 160 aircraft and 60 warships, are taking part in exercises across a broad swath of southern Europe stretching from Portugal to Italy. The No. 1 objective of the maneuvers, code-named Trident Juncture, is to ensure NATO’s beefed-up Response Force is up to the job, and that the United States and its allies can respond promptly and in unison to a crisis. For more than a year, the alliance has been in the throes of a major makeover, largely in response to Russia’s 2014 annexation of Crimea and support for a pro-Russia separatist insurgency in eastern Ukraine, but also to better meet the new types of security threat represented by Islamic State and other armed extremist organizations. “The last time NATO regularly held exercises of this magnitude, we were in the midst of the Cold War, facing the Soviet threat,” Alexander Vershbow, Stoltenberg’s

spokeswoman Lt. Julie Holland said. They were found Oct. 21 at Imperial Beach and at Silver Strand beach in San Diego. Two Navy ships were using mid-frequency active sonar 80 nautical miles away from where the dolphins were found, Holland said. They used the sonar for slightly more than an hour over two days from Oct. 19. Other ships were conducting an amphibious exercise in the area at about the same time, but these ships don’t have sonar capabilities, Holland said. Explosives weren’t used

in this exercise either, she said. Navy ships use sonar to search for submarines in the water. The ships pump sound through the water and listen for objects from which the sound bounces off. Sonar can disrupt marine mammal feeding and communication from a great distance. It can cause deafness or death in marine mammals when used closer. The fisheries service notified David Henkin, an Earthjustice attorney representing environmental groups, of the deaths as part of a settlement reached over a lawsuit challenging

sonar use. It also posted a notice on its website. Under the terms of the settlement, the fisheries service has six months to decide whether the incident requires it to modify the circumstances in which the Navy may use sonar. Henkin said he appreciates that the agency is notifying the public and is investigating. He said he didn’t want to prejudge the outcome of the investigation, but the news “reinforces the concern about these types of activities in marine mammal habitat.”

A tip led police in Sacramento to arrest a 28-year-old man Wednesday in the stabbing of a U.S. airman who was hailed as a hero for helping thwart a European terror attack. Air Force Staff Sgt. Spencer Stone was knifed Oct. 8 in a fight near a bar, shortly after nightclub patrons applauded the 23-year-old for his role in tackling a gunman with ties to radical Islam on a Paris-bound passenger train in August. James Tran is considered the instigator in the brawl that led to the stabbing, police said. He was charged with attempted homicide.

Vote set on porn condom use Voters are set to decide next year whether to require actors in pornographic movies to wear condoms, taking up an issue that could affect the future of California’s multibillion-dollar adult film industry. The initiative qualified for the November 2016 ballot Wednesday after supporters gathered the nearly 366,000 valid petition signatures they needed, the Secretary of State’s Office said. The measure would require movie actors to wear condoms when filming scenes of sexual intercourse.

AROUND THE WORLD Malaysia: Visit to carrier In a symbolic swipe at China’s muscular moves in the South China Sea, U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter was flying Thursday onto an American aircraft carrier in the disputed waterway. Carter, who was in Malaysia for two days of talks with Asian defense ministers, is using the visit to the USS Theodore Roosevelt to amplify the U.S. view that China is making excessive claims that nearly all of the South China Sea is its territory. He was to fly aboard the carrier in a V-22 Osprey.

Indonesia: Volcano erupts Thousands of tourists are stranded on three islands after ash from an erupting volcano forced the closure of airports and blanketed villages and farmlands. Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island blasted ash and debris 11,480 feet into the air Wednesday, a disaster agency spokesman said. The eruption shut down flights at the Ngurah Rai international airport in Bali and the Selaparang airport in Mataram on Lombok Island. Later, the Blimbingsari airport on Java Island also was closed, officials said.

India: New Delhi pollution The air pollution meter buzzed and spat out a stunning result: levels of PM2.5 — tiny, toxic particles that lead to respiratory diseases — were 27 times the safe limit near the parliament in New Delhi on Wednesday. The reading of 675 micrograms per cubic meter of air recorded by Bloomberg News exceeded the highest measured this year in Singapore, where PM2.5 levels touched 471 in October as Indonesian plantation fires led to some of the murkiest haze the city state has seen.

Feds back free retirement plan Thirty-one percent of U.S. workers have no pension or retirement savings. By Jonnelle Marte The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Starting this week, people who don’t have access to a retirement savings plan at work will have an easier time setting aside cash. The myRA program, a government backed retirement plan first announced by President

Barack Obama in 2014, has now launched nationally, the Treasury department said Wednesday. The myRA is a form of Roth IRA, which allows workers to save their after-tax dollars for retirement. It’s aimed at overcoming some of the obstacles that keep some workers from saving for retirement, especially those who are low-income or who lack retirement benefits: The myRA charges no fees, is low-risk and convenient. By allowing people to set up automatic contributions, the program is meant to make it easier

for people to save, officials said. And contributions can be small, even as little as a few dollars. The accounts have no minimum balance. “One thing we know is that when people start saving, they’ll continue,” Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew said. “The challenge is to create the habit of saving in the first place.” People also don’t need to worry about losing money because their savings would be stored in an account where their principal is backed by the U.S. government. The plans will store people’s

savings in low-risk investments where the money can grow at a conservative interest rate. Since last year, the government has been testing the program quietly through a pilot that allowed people to set up automatic deductions from their paychecks. But in the official rollout, the government is also letting people contribute from their checking or savings accounts and even from their tax refunds. Like a regular Roth IRA, workers contribute up to $5,500 a See MYRA, Page A10

Scrap metal market cools “It’s a cyclical market. No one can really see where the bottom’s at.”

David Cauble, vice president of Cimco Recycling in Milwaukee, says the scrap metal market is cyclical.

It’s getting to the point where you almost have to charge people,” to haul it away. — John Marty, Anything Goes Salvage

nickel and other materials have slid. Steel mills that paid about $330 a ton for steel scrap in January, paid $165 in October. “To say that the ferrous scrap metal market has collapsed, from a pricing standpoint, would not be hyperbole,” Isroff said. The scrap metal industry isn’t going away, but individual businesses have closed or consolidated with others. Prices are likely to get worse before they get better, according to industry experts who say they don’t expect much of an improvement until 2017. “It’s a cyclical market. No one can really see where the bottom’s at,” said David Cauble, vice president of Cimco Recycling, in

Milwaukee. “This is a difficult time. You have to be smart and manage your money ... and realistically, if you are just starting to do that today, it’s too late,” Cauble said. Some businesses have stored scrap material while they wait for the price to rebound. That’s almost like trying to predict stock market prices, however, and most businesses can’t afford to store material for too long. Cimco has eight scrap metal yards. Cauble says the company has learned to weather the downturns that come periodically. “We know that if we get metal in, and ship it out, we make money every month,” he said. Some scrap metal businesses say they were getting about three

times more for the material a year ago, and now they’re hesitant to spend much time and money on cleaning up yards filled with scrap metal. “It’s getting to the point where you almost have to charge people,” to haul it away, said John Marty, co-owner of Anything Goes Salvage, in Waterloo, Wisconsin. While the prices are down, he’s spending more time buying and selling old tractors and parts for tractors, including sales on eBay. As for scrap metal: “If you can buy it cheap, then it’s all right,” Marty said. People who make a living scavenging scrap metal are also struggling, sometimes getting about $20 for a pickup truck load of material they gathered from the trash. “It seems like there are fewer ‘scrappers’ out there. I have heard guys talking about the prices being off, and that has made it less worth their time,” said Tim Nelson, a pastor at Transformation City Church, in Milwaukee, who knows metal collectors in his neighborhood.

U.S. firms add 182,000 workers, ADP reports Companies added 182,000 workers in October, signaling steady improvement in the U.S. job market, according to a private report based on payrolls. The increase in employment followed a revised 190,000 rise in the prior month, figures from the ADP Research Institute in Roseland, New Jersey, showed Wednesday. The median projection of economists surveyed by Bloomberg called for an advance of 180,000. Goods-producing industries, which include manufacturers and builders, increased headcounts by 24,000, the ADP report showed. Hiring in construction climbed by 35,000, while factories cut 2,000 jobs.

U.S. trade deficit drops in September

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel MILWAUKEE — Ron Loos says he recently received $112 for a bin full of scrap metal that, not long ago, would have sold for about $600. Loos said if the price drops much more, he might have to pay someone to haul away the scrap material from his business, Quality Tool & Die, based outside Milwaukee. “It’s a big change from a couple of years ago,” he said, when people were stealing all kinds of metal because it was so valuable. Scrap metal is a key ingredient in the manufacturing of new products. A global clamor for it has resulted, at times, in high prices and extreme actions — such as the theft of cars for their metal value. Now, with a slowdown in the global economy, scrap metal prices have plummeted. Material that sold for $220 a ton in January, for example, now sells for about $80. A few years ago, scrap metal from the United States was one of the top exports to China, where it was melted and manufactured into new products. Now that China’s economy has slowed and industrial activity is down in other parts of the world, there’s less demand for raw materials. “It’s a world economy now. What goes on in China affects what happens in Milwaukee,” said Jeff Isroff, CEO of United Milwaukee Scrap, a metal recycler in Milwaukee. The strength of the U.S. dollar, relative to foreign currencies, has made the situation worse for scrap-metal businesses. “But probably the biggest factor has been supply and demand. The fact of the matter is the supply has outpaced the demand worldwide,” Isroff said. Prices for aluminum, copper,

The U.S. trade deficit declined in September to the lowest level in seven months as exports rebounded while imports shrank, reflecting the smallest monthly foreign oil bill in more than a decade. The Commerce Department said the trade deficit narrowed to $40.8 billion in September, down 15 percent from a $48 billion deficit in August. Exports rose 1.6 percent to $187.9 billion, helped by stronger sales of commercial airplanes and jet engines. Imports contracted 1.8 percent to $228.7 billion. The big drop in oil prices sent petroleum imports down 8.3 percent to $13.8 billion, the lowest level since May 2004.

Advertising boosts Facebook’s earnings Boosted by a surge in advertising, Facebook posted strong third-quarter financial earnings that beat analysts’ estimates, the company said Wednesday. The social media giant said revenue was up 12.5 percent from a year ago to $4.5 billion. Earnings per share came to 57 cents, up 33 percent from the same period a year earlier. Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters predicted revenue of $4.36 billion and earnings of 52 cents a share. Facebook said advertising revenue grew 45 percent from a year ago to $4.29 billion. About 78 percent of it was through mobile advertising, up from 66 percent in the third quarter of 2014.

Maersk Line plans to trim employment Maersk Line, the shipping branch of Danish conglomerate A.P.

Maersk Line said it was speeding up already announced plans to simplify the organization in the light of lower demand. Company CEO Soeren Skou said Wednesday the decisions were “necessary steps to transform our industry.” Maersk Line currently has 23,000 land-based staff globally.

STOCK MARKET SUMMARY

myRA year, or $6,500 a year for people age 50 and up. Thirty-one percent of workers have no pension or retirement savings, according to a report released earlier this year by the Federal Reserve. And only about half of all workers participate in a retirement plan, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. For many workers, the biggest obstacle is gaining access to a retirement plan. Only 31 percent of workers earning the lowest wages had access to a retirement plan through work this year, compared to 90 percent of the highest earners, according to the bureau. And 38 percent of part-time workers had access to retirement benefits through work, in contrast to 80 percent of full-time workers who did. The myRA program is intended to help close that gap. But the accounts, which officials described as “starter accounts” for people who aren’t saving for retirement, don’t offer a long-term solution. Savers can only set aside a maximum of $15,000 in a myRA before the cash needs to be rolled over to a private sector Roth IRA, where they would find more options for investing their money. And people can’t use the accounts indefinitely. They need to roll the money over to a Roth IRA after being in the program for more than 30 years. (The option of transferring savings to a privatesector Roth IRA is available at any time.) As with a traditional Roth IRA, people must be earning taxable income if they want to use the accounts, which are available to workers earning less than $131,000 a

year or married couples earning less than $193,000 a year. People can sign up through myRA. gov. Savers can withdraw the cash they put in tax-free and penaltyfree at any time. But interest earned is subject to the same restrictions as Roth IRA accounts, which allow savers to withdraw money tax-free and penalty-free if the account has been open at least five years. And workers can carry the plan from one

employer to the next if they change jobs. Because of their conservative nature, people saving for retirement with these accounts may not experience the investment potential needed to help their savings grow substantially over time. But Lew said the myRA is meant to get people to begin saving now, which may encourage them to save larger amounts later on.

we’ve always held — in other words, no humans reading your email,” the company said. One hurdle Google’s engineers faced in developing the software was making the suggested replies less, well, touchy-feely. Google Senior Research Scientist Greg Corrado said: “Some analysis revealed that the system was doing exactly what we’d trained it to do, generate likely

responses — and it turns out that responses like “Thanks,” “Sounds good,” and “I love you” are super common — so the system would lean on them as a safe bet if it was unsure. For the real version of the program, which will roll out to iOS and Android Inbox users over the next week, engineers have toned down the affection to make the software a bit more work-appropriate.

IOWA CITY, Iowa — Kraft Heinz will close seven plants in the U.S. and Canada as part of a downsizing that will eliminate 2,600 jobs, or roughly 14 percent of its North American factory workforce, the newly-merged food company announced Wednesday. The company said the reduction, which will take place over the next two years, is part of a plan to save $1.5 billion in operating costs by the end of 2017. The plants slated for closure are in California, Maryland, New York, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Ontario. Among the hardest hit cities will be Madison, Wisconsin, where a nearly century-old Oscar Mayer plant that employs 700 production workers will close. Kraft Heinz also said it would move about 250 corporate jobs from Madison to Chicago, the company’s co-headquarters along with Pittsburgh. One of the plant’s workers, 46-year-old Rick Schroeder, said he was stunned to hear about the closing through news reports rather than from the company. He said his father also worked at the plant for 35 years and operated a pig farm, and remembers going with his father to deliver pigs to the plant. “They always say when one door closes, another opens,” said Schroeder, a janitor at the plant. “Gotta have faith. Move on, that’s all you can do. Sad day in Madison.” The company said it would also close plants in Fullerton and San Leandro, California; Federalsburg, Maryland; St. Marys, Ontario, Canada;

Campbell, New York; and Lehigh Valley, Pennsylvania. The plants make a wide range of products, including cold cuts, salad dressing, macaroni and coffee. The company also will close its Oscar Mayer plant in downtown Davenport, Iowa, and move its meat production to a planned $203 million plant that will be built several miles away. That move is expected to eventually cut hundreds of jobs, even as city and state leaders consider millions of dollars in financial incentives to support the new plant. City and state officials said the plan will retain at least 475 jobs, compared to more than 1,200 jobs at the existing plant that dates to the 1940s and is touted as the world’s largest bologna factory. “Our members are scared of the unknown,” said Jerry Messer, president of the Davenport chapter of the United Food and Production Workers, which represents plant workers. But he said he was glad that no jobs are expected to be cut for at least two years, and he hopes the new factory will eventually bring growth. The company said it would also move some of its cheese production away from its plant in Champaign, Illinois. The company formed from the merger of Kraft and Heinz earlier this year. After the facilities close, Kraft Heinz will have 41 plants in North America that employ about 18,000 people. “Kraft Heinz fully appreciates and regrets the impact our decision will have on employees, their families and the communities in which these facilities are located,” said Michael Mullen, a senior vice president.

Come to aid of teacher aides often paraeducators are left to fend for themselves without the benefits of training and development support. But the standards and support for paraeducators haven’t kept up with that role’s demands and expectations. With the exception of guidelines for those working alongside special education teachers, in Washington state there are no educational qualifications or license requirements for paraeducators. What training that is offered, often workshops or seminars, are left for individual school districts to provide. The need hasn’t been ignored in the Legislature. Earlier this year, both the House and Senate passed versions of Senate Bill 5179 that would have established minimum employment standards for paraeducators, created a committee to develop standards for training and development of

paraeducators, require community and technical colleges to incorporate the standards into their training programs and set up pilot programs to guide implementation. But neither House nor Senate could agree on amendments to the legislation, and the proposals were left for the coming session that begins in January. There’s one advantage to the delay. In 2014, the Legislature directed the state’s Professional Educator Standards Board to assign a workgroup to design training and development standards. The workgroup’s final report is due Jan. 10 and should help guide the discussion. As the Legislature returns to its work to satisfy the state Supreme Court’s McCleary mandate that it amply fund basic education, setting standards and providing training for paraeducators could provide a cost-effective tool for school districts.

Among the sticking points that prevented passage of legislation agreeable to both House and Senate this year was the lack of specified funding. As the state takes on full responsibility for funding basic education, school districts won’t be eager to absorb the costs of training and development for paraeducators as well as their compensation. The case can be made that the teaching support that paraeducators provide should be considered basic education and the state’s responsibility, not something for school districts to fund through property tax levies. While details are worked out, the state should at least be responsible for fully funding the pilot programs in school districts that volunteer to host them. “We have to raise the standard for paraeducators,” Doser said, “so students get the education they deserve.”

(which would apply to the Hilltop area, as it currently is arranged), yet they left a pocket that is in the neighborhood of the new school AND across two major streets from its assigned school. And their reasoning for leaving that pocket? They didn’t want to disrupt too many students. Yet they are willing to take away diversity and community stability from Discovery. It is a great school with dedicated teachers who go the extra mile for the kids. I know that the excellent staff and teachers will continue, but I worry for all of the things that will NOT continue if Hilltop is moved from Discovery. At this stage the changes are just a proposal I am hopeful that Superintendent Marci Larsen and the boundary committee will make the right choice for the good of the children.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■PACIFIC RIM TRADE

We don’t know details of pact I’m wondering about the point of Tuesday’s front page article on “TPP Opportunities.” The first part (on Page A1) focuses on a local company and how the new Trans-Pacific Partnership will improve its business by lowering trade barriers. Yet, later the article states that “The TPP was negotiated behind closed doors, and the text has not been made public. So, no one knows exactly what the agreement says.” Much of the “news” about the TPP over the past few years has been about who’s for it, who’s against it, how great it will be, how devastating it will be. I have read many articles and opinion pieces about this agreement, most of them negative and some of them downright scary. But the quote from your article sums it up: “No one knows what it says.” I’m hoping as the text becomes available that your paper will help educate us all about what’s really in this “trade deal.” Then we can see for ourselves whether it is in our best interest or not.

Box 930 Everett, WA 98206 Very few newspapers in the state of Washington would have run a story showing the positive aspects of gun ownership and training youth to handle guns.

Border change hurts Discovery Mukilteo School District is revising boundaries to accommodate a new elementary school. Great news for all of us in the district, but not all of the changes are welcome. They are proposing to move the “Hilltop” area to the new Lake Stickney School. The schools are equally distant from the Hilltop area, and a brand new school certainly has some allure. That is, until you consider that to remove this area from Discovery Elementary will: remove essentially all of the active P.T.O. members, leave Discovery at approximately 90 precent poverty, and remove almost all of the “white” population from the school (diversity goes both ways). They claim that they want to eliminate “pocket borders”

GUEST COMMENTARY | Medicare open enrollment

Help available to weigh Medicare options By Jeff Underwood

arlier this year, Medicare celebrated its 50th anniversary. For a half-century, older Americans and other beneficiaries have set out each autumn to choose their Medicare coverage for the year ahead. Nearly 289,000 people here in the Seattle-Everett area are part of this annual rite of passage for Medicare beneficiaries. Over the summer, we asked 1,000 older adults to share their perspectives on the milestones in Medicare’s evolution that have been the most meaningful as part of a survey called the Medicare Made Clear Index. Their top

three milestones? The addition of coverage for preventive services and annual wellness visits was the most popular choice, selected by 17 percent of respondents. Prescription drug coverage was the runnerup, chosen by 14 percent of survey respondents, with the ability to access Medicare coverage through private health plans coming in a close third at 13 percent of respondents. The more than 19 million Americans who were the first to enroll in Medicare in 1965 had just one simple choice to make — to sign up or not. The open enrollment experience is vastly different for today’s beneficiaries, who have many options to consider, thanks in

large part to those milestones that broadened the scope of plans, benefits and services available to people enrolled in Medicare. While the options mean that beneficiaries are able to select a plan or combination of plans that’s well-suited to their unique health and budget needs, navigating through them during the Open Enrollment Period can sometimes feel overwhelming. People should know that resources are available to make the process of shopping for Medicare coverage easier to manage. For example, the Plan Finder on www.Medicare.gov is a great tool that can help beneficiaries compare plans

IN OUR VIEW | Paraeducator training

We’re past the days when teacher aides just kept the classroom bulletin board current and watched over kids during recess. For one, they’re now called paraeducators. And they now handle greater responsibilities, such as providing additional academic support for students in reading, writing and math; helping students who are learning English as a second language; or assisting those with special education needs. “The paraeducator’s job has become a teaching position,” said Reen Doser, a paraeducator for the Lake Stevens School District for the past 20 years and president of Public School Employees of Washington. Frequently paraeducators work with small groups of children, or even individually, helping to explain and complete class assignments while the teacher leads the rest of the class, Doser said.

available in their area. As Medicare celebrates its golden anniversary this year, I encourage beneficiaries to pay tribute to this important program by taking full advantage of the Open Enrollment Period. From now until Dec. 7, they should explore their options and choose Medicare coverage that will support their health and financial goals in 2016. Jeff Underwood is the CEO of UnitedHealthcare Medicare & Retirement in Washington state. UnitedHealthcare serves nearly 1 in 5 Medicare beneficiaries, including nearly 1.2 million in Washington state.

Seniors’ costs not reflected in monthly checks

he 121,000 people who receive Social Security benefits in Snohomish County will be getting a rude non-surprise on Jan. 1. That’s because they will not see any COLA increase in their Social Security checks. Why not? The COLA, the annual cost-of-living adjustment, accounts for inflation through the consumer price index. That index has shown no increase in the past twelve months, so no COLA. But senior citizens purchase JOHN BURBANK different proportions of services than younger people. Consider medical expenses: Inflation for medical care has gone up 2.5 percent. But that extra expense for the elderly is not factored into the consumer price index to determine the COLA. In 2010, when inflation was zero, Social Security recipients received an emergency payment of $250 as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act stimulus bill. So here we are with 2016 around the corner, and again, no COLA. That doesn’t mean that elderly citizens are any better off. The average Social Security payment is $1,335 a month. Twothirds of seniors rely on Social Security for the majority of their income. For one quarter of seniors, Social Security is their sole source of income. So it makes sense to figure out how to increase Social Security checks. There is a way to measure the price changes the seniors face. It’s called the CPI-E — the E is for elderly. If the Social Security Administration were to use that measure to calculate COLAs, Social Security checks would increase to keep pace with the price changes that the elderly face. If seniors are getting the short end of the stick, who is running away with the long end? According to data from the top 350 corporations in the U.S., average CEO pay rose 3.9 percent in 2014, to $16.3 million — a $612,000 increase in one year. How about if we also increase the average Social Security payment by 3.9 percent? That would be a $580 one-time emergency benefit. And since every dollar of Social Security benefits generates about $2 of economic output, that increase would be worth about $300 million in new economic activity in Snohomish County alone. Washington state would see benefits totaling more than $3.1 billion! How would we pay for it? From a policy point-of-view, that’s a relatively easy problem to solve. Buried in the federal tax code is a provision that enables corporations to fully deduct components of executive compensation that are “performance-based.” So corporations can pay their executives tens of millions of dollars, and at the same time write off those costs from their taxable income — with billions in lost tax revenue in the process. Closing this loophole would generate would generate about $51 billion a year. That’s $10 billion more than needed to pay for the one-time $580 emergency benefit for all Social Security recipients. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Massachusetts, is proposing just this trade-off. She is introducing a bill this week to give all Social Security recipients and Supplemental Security Income recipients a $580 one-time payment in 2016. She’ll close the corporate executive performance loophole to pay for this. Sen. Warren’s proposal, the Seniors Before CEOs Act, has another benefit: Since the loophole closure is permanent, future revenue will go into the Social Security Trust Fund. That would help make increased Social Security payments possible in the future, such as switching to the CPI-Elderly, which takes into account what older people purchase. That is the CPI-E proposal that Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Washington, introduced in 2005 in the U.S. Senate. It made sense then, and it makes sense now. So one step at a time: First Sen. Warren’s legislation and then Sen. Cantwell’s CPI-E bill. Two-thirds of seniors rely on Social Security for the majority of their income. After decades of work, they should be able to stay out of poverty, and gain a bit more, not having to worry about running out of money at the end of each month.

SPOKANE. — In the wake of a federal court lawsuit, Hispanic candidates have for the first time been elected to the Yakima City Council. Two Latina candidates won council seats Tuesday and a third was leading her opponent. This was the first election since the American Civil Liberties Union of Washington sued the city under the federal Voting Rights Act, demanding that the community’s election system be changed to give Hispanics a better chance of winning elections.

Salmon farms target of lawsuit

Yakima, which has about 90,000 residents, is about 40 percent Hispanic. The agricultural community is 140 miles east of Seattle. “The ACLU’s voting rights case was intended to give Latinos in Yakima their rightful voice on the City Council, after decades of being shut out from representation,” said Kathleen Taylor, executive director of the group. “We are thrilled with this historic election that ensures the Latino community will have seats at the table when decisions are made.” The state Democratic Party also praised the outcome. “A Latino will sit on the City

Council for the first time in Yakima’s history,” said Jaxon Ravens, chair of the Washington State Democratic Party. “Largely due to the Voting Rights Act, a community that had been disenfranchised will now have a voice in their local government.” The number of Hispanic residents has exploded in central Washington in recent decades, with some communities becoming majority Hispanic. But political clout has not followed the population gains. Yakima’s Hispanic population quadrupled from 1990 to 2010, with many new residents drawn to work in the region’s agriculture

and food-processing industries. In 2012, the ACLU filed a lawsuit in federal court on behalf of two Latino residents, alleging that Yakima’s hybrid of district and atlarge voting for City Council races was suppressing that group’s voice in public representation. U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Rice ruled in favor of the ACLU and in February ordered that an all-district system be adopted. Several of the districts contained a majority of Hispanic residents. The city has appealed that ruling to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. On Tuesday, Latina candidates Dulce Gutierrez and Avina

Gutierrez were easily winning election in two City Council districts. In a third race, candidate Carmen Mendez held a narrow lead over Kelly Rosenow. Gutierrez, who has a degree from the University of Washington and works for Yakima Valley Hops, said she never imagined she would one day represent northeast Yakima, where she grew up. “No one ever door-belled my neighborhood,” Gutierrez, 26, told the Yakima Herald-Republic on Tuesday night. “No one was ever coming around to put that idea in our heads that we could serve in city government.”

Say hello to the white stuff

By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — The Wild Fish Conservancy filed a lawsuit Wednesday against federal environmental and fisheries managers for allowing commercial salmon farms in Puget Sound. The lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Seattle claims that infectious viruses in salmon farms are threatening wild fish in the region. The National Marine Fisheries Service and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency concluded in 2011 that commercial salmon farms are not likely to have an adverse effect on wild salmon, the lawsuit said. But the following year, it said, there was an infectious virus outbreak at a commercial salmon farm at the south end of Bainbridge Island in Puget Sound. The outbreak occurred while wild juvenile salmon were migrating through the area and likely had a significant impact on the wild fish, the group said. The lawsuit seeks an injunction that would force federal officials to reconsider commercial salmon farms in Puget Sound in light of the outbreak. A spokeswoman with the EPA did not immediately have a comment on the lawsuit. Katherine Brogan, a spokeswoman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, fisheries division, said in an email that the agency does not discuss ongoing litigation. The Puget Sound Chinook salmon and the Hood Canal summer-run chum salmon are listed as endangered species and federal fisheries managers have designated critical habitat for these species, the group said. Commercial salmon farms keep fish in floating net pens. At present, eight Atlantic salmon net pen facilities are operating in Puget Sound. They produce more than 10 million pounds of salmon annually, the lawsuit said. Three are located near Deepwater Bay of Cypress Island north of Anacortes; three are south of Bainbridge Island; one is northeast of Port Angeles Harbor and one is in Skagit Bay. The facilities are considered “point sources of pollution” under the Clean Water Act, and therefore require permits to operate. All eight of the Puget Sound farms have secured these permits. The farms are operated by Icicle Seafoods. The company declined to comment on the lawsuit.

Protecting Oregon’s iconic Haystack Rock Hands off, please: Group wants beachcombers to resist touching or climbing the 235-foot-tall protected rock. By Dani Palmer Daily Astorian

CANNON BEACH, Ore. — Haystack Rock is an iconic symbol of Cannon Beach that draws thousands to the small coastal town each year. But members of the Haystack Rock Awareness Program want the public to know the 235-foot-tall rock — protected as an Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuge and Marine Garden — is more for looking than for touching. Haystack Rock is what drew Jason Phelps, 35, of Vancouver, British Columbia, and his girlfriend, Abbey, to Cannon Beach during a trip to Oregon. “We’ve seen tons of photos and had to stop by to see it for ourselves,” Phelps said. “She’s a big fan of ‘The Goonies,’ too, so that’s a plus.” Like Phelps, visitors come for that adventure; others are there for a wedding or senior pictures. But a few just can’t resist an urge to reach out and touch, or even climb. “Sometimes they get tunnel vision,” Program Coordinator Melissa Keyser said. “It’s just not an environment they’ve been in before. They want to check it out.” “A lot of times it’s an honest mistake,” she added, but she also believes people should know the rules of the places they visit. Even with the presence of program staff, signage and

information, the number of people climbing the rock is high, she added. From February to September, Haystack Rock Awareness Program staff intercepted more than 1,200 people trying to climb the rock. That was just during beach shifts, each a few hours a day. Haystack Rock was incorporated as a national wildlife refuge in 1968 and became a marine garden in 1991, one of seven protected intertidal areas along the Oregon coast. Everything above the high tide line is a part of the protection, meaning it can’t be climbed or walked on, and animals should not be touched, Keyser said. Visitors may take shells, but HRAP staff encourage them not to. The shells can provide habitat for animals. The designations are meant to guard the animals and plants that call Haystack Rock home. They also shield Haystack’s visitors, Keyser added. This summer,

a “huge rock” fell from the center that could have injured a climber. She noted rock falls occur daily. The number of climbers intercepted rose from last year, but Keyser noted that the data also reflects increased beach shifts and more volunteers. There’s a counting device at each beach shift site and those who interact with program staff or volunteers are counted. This year, they had more than 17,000 interactions. That doesn’t include the thousands who don’t stop to talk to Awareness Program members. Keyser said the majority of people staff and volunteers talk to are interested in doing what they can to protect the rock, as it is a place where “people can experience beauty and animals others are losing.” Some don’t get what Haystack Rock Awareness Program is doing or want to climb the rock “because they see it as their own,” Keyser added.

Education rather than enforcement is the focus, but program staff have had to call the police a few times this year because a person became extremely upset. Thankfully, those people are “so few and far between,” Keyser added. Cannon Beach sees people from all over the world, and Portland residents flooded the coast to escape the heat this summer. Haystack Rock is the top Instagrammed location in Oregon. Program staff and volunteers hand out informational brochures and try to use universal signage at the rock. There are signs posted that say “Do Not Enter” or “Area Beyond This Sign Closed,” but Keyser said they need to consider replacing or cleaning them. Some are covered in barnacles, others get washed out during a storm or king tide. Signs posted near the rock provide “Keep off” warnings, but do not provide the rationale. However, interpretive signs at beach access points do provide information about the rock’s protected status. Keyser said they are examining options to expand that message next season. Staff are also planning to extend the program’s season into October. Unfortunately, Keyser noted, even those who live nearby don’t always know the importance of the rock as a protected national wildlife issue. Sam O’Shields, 24, of Astoria, was a visitor, not a climber. Even so, she said she was unaware of the rock’s status as a protected national wildlife refuge. “But I can understand why it would be,” O’Shields said. “It’s a beautiful area. I don’t know why people wouldn’t want to protect it.”

Truck hauling frozen blood crashes

Engineer, 23, poised to lead Aberdeen Associated Press ABERDEEN — A 23-year-old engineer is poised to become the next mayor of the city of Aberdeen on the Washington coast. Erik Larson appears to be defeating opponent Jack Micheau, an attorney and former Aberdeen City Council member. In early

results Tuesday night, Larson led with 72 percent of the vote. Larson grew up in Aberdeen and returned to the city after graduating from Washington State University. He said Wednesday he wants to improve housing for younger families, revitalize older homes in the area and address

flooding issues. Messages left with Micheau were not immediately returned. Current Mayor Bill Simpson, who was elected in 2008, was edged out in the August primary. The mayor of Aberdeen manages a $47 million annual budget in the city of about 16,000 people. It’s a part-time job.

Associated Press OAKRIDGE, Ore. — Police say two truck drivers from Texas were injured when their truck hauling frozen blood crashed over an embankment on a rural Oregon highway. Oregon State Police said the men were taken to a hospital in Springfield after

the crash early Wednesday morning. Both are expected to recover. Police said the truck was pulling a refrigerated box trailer carrying 30,000 pounds of frozen blood and plasma being transported for medical purposes. Hazardous materials teams responded to the scene, and the road was

closed for more than six hours. Police say the truck was traveling eastbound on Highway 58 near Oakridge when the driver drifted off the roadway. Authorities identified the driver as Kent Osgood, of White Settlement, Texas, and the passenger as Manuel Rodriguez, of San Antonio.

low them to. Stay busy and you will avoid being dragged into situations that are uncomfortable and unlikely to help you excel. ★★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Put your time and effort toward projects that count. Listen, learn and gain experience from someone who has knowledge and information that you can benefit from. Don’t alter your life because you are bored. Make sure your motives are worthwhile. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’ll attract a lot of attention personally and professionally.

Go it alone and make the changes that suit your needs. ★★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t take on someone else’s responsibilities or dealings with institutions. You don’t want to miss out on the opportunity to do your own thing. Explore a personal relationship with someone who shares your interests and concerns. ★★★

Midseason signings add playoff boost for Sounders

s to Thing about know son the sea

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

TUKWILA — Three international players the Seattle Sounders brought in at midseason are making their marks in the postseason. In a quick cluster of summer moves, Seattle welcomed midfielder Erik Friberg on June 29, midfielder Andreas Ivanschitz on Aug. 4 and forward Nelson Valdez on Aug. 7. Each directly helped extend the Sounders’ season during a 3-2 win over Los Angeles in a Western Conference play-in game this past Sunday. Valdez scored Seattle’s second goal, assisted by Ivanschitz. Then Friberg scored the game-winner. In the first leg of the ongoing Western semifinal, Ivanschitz scored the equalizing goal in what eventually became the 2-1 advantage the Sounders will take to FC Dallas for the resolution match Sunday. “They’ve all fit very well,” coach Sigi Schmid said. “Obviously with Erik Friberg, he had been here before, he knew some of the guys on the team. So for him to transition to the group was much easier. Valdez and Andreas Ivanschitz are just good guys ... and they fit in and meshed with the group very quickly. So from that standpoint of the chemistry and the locker room, those guys have all been great.”

Inexperienced but athletic, the Huskies return just two rotation players and have seven freshmen By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Dejounte Murray scored hundreds of points for the powerhouse boys basketball team at Rainier Beach High School. He grabbed a lot of rebounds, too. And threw down a lot of dunks. Once, he scored 52 points in a game. But what the 6-foot-41⁄2 guard never did, and what he had to learn to do with strict regularity when he arrived for his first summer at the University of Washington, was lift a weight. Maybe once or twice as a kid, just messing around. But never as a high-schooler. So when UW strength and conditioning coach Daniel Shapiro gave Murray a workout plan to start prior to his arrival at UW, the freshman relented. “I was supposed to do some stuff before I got here, like lifting and stuff,” Murray said, “and I didn’t take that too serious. But when I got here, it was like, no choice. I had to do it.” He stuck with it, and started eating more, too — “here,

you’re getting three meals plus,” he said — and says he gained about 20 pounds as a result. And he will need the extra muscle if he is to help carry this Huskies team the way many hope. Washington’s 2015-16 season doesn’t officially begin until Nov. 13, when the Huskies fly all the way to Shanghai to face Texas in the first regular-season U.S. basketball game ever played in China. But on Thursday, the Huskies will at least put on uniforms and play against another team, as they host Division II Seattle Pacific in a 7 p.m. exhibition game at Hec Edmundson Pavilion (no TV, no radio). It will be the first chance for the public to see a UW roster that includes just two returning rotation players — fifth-year senior point guard Andrew Andrews, the team captain, and sophomore Donaven Dorsey — plus seven freshmen and a junior-college transfer. Murray might be the most touted newcomer. Freshman forward Marquese Chriss has

impressed in practice, too, most notably scoring 40 points in UW’s recent intramural scrimmage. That’s never happened before, coach Lorenzo Romar said. Romar’s 2015 recruiting class earned mostly plaudits from recruiting analysts, and it ranked among the nation’s best. The Huskies should be talented, and coaches and players tout their improved athleticism and eager chemistry. But there is a reason they were picked by media to finish 11th in the Pac-12 standings. This is by far the youngest team Romar has ever coached, and that experience could be exposed by more seasoned opponents. Against SPU, Romar said, he simply wants to see “how long we can sustain our effort. That’s going to be big for me.” Also: “How well we communicate on the floor. A number of things under the defensive topic I’m going to be looking for. Sharing the basketball.”

ELAINE THOMPSON / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington running back Dwayne Washington carries the ball against Arizona during a game this past Saturday in Seattle. The Huskies won 49-3.

INSIDE: Outdoor Outlook, C2

SEATTLE — After he caught a touchdown pass and ran for another in Washington’s 49-3 blowout of Arizona on Saturday night, Dwayne Washington had a conversation in the tunnel outside the Huskies’ locker room. He had a couple conversations, in fact: One with a reporter, and another one, simultaneously, with his girlfriend and newborn daughter, Nori, using his iPhone. “I’m actually on FaceTime with her right now,” the fourth-year junior running back said, smiling, gesturing to the screen on his phone. Nori was born Oct. 9, and Washington says “it’s the best feeling in the world, honestly. I wouldn’t ask for nothing else but my little princess.”

He’s feeling OK on the field, too, despite receiving fewer carries behind freshman star Myles Gaskin. Washington’s role is a little different this year — he has just 41 carries in eight games (though he was slowed some by a minor knee injury), but ranks second on the team in receiving yards with 307, and is third in receptions with 23. His three touchdown catches lead the team.

For comparison, Washington, who played receiver in high school, finished the 2014 season with just 15 catches for 91 yards. “I think the biggest thing that has helped him this year, as far as catching the ball out of the backfield, is just really taking the time to work on it and do a good job and focusing his eyes and his hands on the football,” running backs coach Keith Bhonapha said. “And he just continues to progress. It’s a simple strategy: if you work at it, you get better.” The wheel route seems to suit him. Against Arizona, Washington caught a 36-yard pass up the sideline from Jake Browning to move the Huskies into the red zone, then capped the same drive with a 13-yard catch on another wheel.

ost local saltwater anglers know by now that salmon managers with the state Department of Fish and Wildlife have decided how to deal with the very large concentration of sub-legal chinook in Marine Area 9 (Admiralty Inlet) versus a limited number of “encounters” (chinook caught or released) available to the recreational fishery. The decision was to open Area 9 to chums only, Nov. 1-30 and Jan. 16 through April 15, but let Marine Areas 8-1 and 8-2 remain under their existing schedule for the winter blackmouth season. Area 9 had been scheduled to open for hatchery blackmouth on Nov. 1, but that fishery was postponed to protect wild chinook “shakers” from incidental catch-and-release mortality. Areas 8-1 (Deception Pass to Camano State Park) and 8-2 (Camano State Park to Possession Point) are now open to fin-clipped legal chinook, the first directed chinook opening in those two marine areas since last spring. A similar situation occurred earlier last month in Marine Area 10 (Seattle-Bremerton), where the chinook encounter guideline was met quickly and the fishery closed early. Puget Sound salmon manager Ron Warren said the department will continue to monitor Marine Area 9 and, depending on the sub-legal population and the encounter rate, could open a short finclipped chinook fishery, perhaps over the Thanksgiving weekend. Warren said in an agency release that “This (chums only) action should allow us to keep the winter chinook fishery going longer, when it reopens in January.” That’s a tight rope to walk, however. Blackmouth fishermen know that feeder chinook tend to start out-migrating toward the end of the scheduled winter season, and the possibility certainly exists that the “shaker closure” will continue so long that anglers will be left holding unused encounters with larger blackmouth, even if the season is extended. The agency also warns that Marine Area 9 is not open for catch and release fishing for other species. If that starts happening, the state’s recourse would likely be to close the area

PICK OF THE WEEK Squid jigging |

Mike Chamberlain, owner of Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood, has been in business there for 35 years, and he says “this is one of the best squid years I’ve seen in that entire time.” Recreational squidding has been very good from Edmonds all the way to Tacoma, on the Kitsap Peninsula, and in a lot of other places. The Edmonds fishing pier is our local hot spot, and Chamberlain said it’s been “exceptionally good.” There are so many squid in the area, that although it’s generally a night fishery, some are being taken even during daylight hours. That’s unusual, Chamberlain said. Silver Horde jigs with a glow body and decorated with a wide range of pinks, reds, blues and greens are a popular lure, and you’ll need a state shellfish license. The best time would be an early-evening incoming tide, and prime time would be the last couple hours of the tide, through high slack. Chamberlain said, however, that if the tide series isn’t moving much water, it makes little difference when you fish. Squid can be anywhere from the surface to the bottom, and jiggers work various depths until they know where the squid are holding. Cast out, let the jig drop, and work it

back in a gentle jigging movement. Gentle, because it’s important to learn to feel the very light “take” as a squid climbs aboard your jig. “Watch other folks who are doing well,” Chamberlain said. “When they cast, count down until they start retrieving the jig. That should give you some idea of the right depth.” Use a soft-action rod, maybe 9 feet with a light tip. Fly rods are a good bet, Chamberlain said. — Wayne Kruse

Krein said there are a couple of choices. One would be to drift and cast quarter-ounce twitching jigs off Point No Point, 50 or 60 feet deep or less, over not more than 100 feet of water. Another would be to troll a light green squid behind a chartreuse flasher in the same area, or try mooching bait on the southwest corner of Possession Bar. There’s also the chance at a marine mammal show, Krein said. Three humpback whales and several orcas were seen Monday on Possession Bar, off Edmonds, and at other times as far south as Shilshole Marine in Seattle.

Fly fishing in Africa The Sky Valley Chapter of Trout Unlimited will host local fish biologist Dan Eastman at 7 p.m. on Nov. 10 at the Qualco Energy building on the old prison honor farm in Monroe (18117 203rd St. S.E.). He will be giving a presentation on fly fishing in South Africa. According to chapter spokesman Gary Bee, Eastman knows fly fishing in Zambia, Botswana, and Namibia, including fishing for tigerfish in the Okavango Delta. The presentation is free and open to the public. For more information contact Bee at nshore@nwlink.com.

Wild Steelhead to all salmon fishing. Jeff LaLone said the new situation will not affect the Everett Bayside Blackmouth Derby, scheduled to go Saturday and Sunday. “This is our 24th derby,” LaLone said, “and we’ve seen regulation changes before. It’s not like we’ve never moved borders.” LaLone said he expects blackmouth from areas 8-1 and 8-2, and probably a few chums from 9. Blackmouth and coho are eligible for top money, he said, including $2,000 for first place. The biggest chum will take home a special prize of $50. In 2014, the derby sold 213 tickets and weighed 81 fish. First place went to Joe Stephanson at 14.04 pounds, second to Daniel Crawley at 13.07 pounds and third to James Davis at 12.76 pounds. Tickets, at $30 a copy, are available at Bayside, John’s Sporting Goods, and Harbor Marine. For more information visit www. baysidemarine.com. Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center said there is a scattering of chums caught in Area 9 most seasons, with the bulk of the catch coming from Point

No Point and south to Kingston. A good system, he said, is to troll a small plug cut herring or anchovy, alone or with a flasher, very slowly, watching for jumpers. Chums this year seem to be falling into one of two year-classes, Chamberlain said, going 7 or 8 pounds, or 12 to 20 or better. Commercial trollers, he said, often use a Hot Shot flasher with a very small squid in cerise, purple, or purple/black. Gary Krein of All Star Charters in Everett fished Elger Bay on Tuesday, marking a lot of bait but finding few legal blackmouth. He said he had reports of a legal caught off Hat Island on Monday, and another out of Elger Bay. Other traditional blackmouth water in 8-1/8-2 includes Columbia Beach, Baby Island, Greenbank and Onomac Point. Krein said water in Saratoga Passage was colored from recent rains, keeping bait at 50 feet or less, and that even pulling plugs and larger spoons, he was still bothered by shakers. Mother of pearl would be a good plug color, he said, and green, white or black/white for the spoons. Looking for chums in Area 9,

There’s a contentious issue at play concerning the north coast rivers, where it has long been legal to keep one wild steelhead per season — the only rivers in the state where that has been the case. So contentious, in fact, that several members of the state’s North Coast Steelhead Advisory Group refused to put their names on the final draft, according to state biologist Mike Gross. The rivers include the Hoh, Clearwater, and the Quillayute system (Bogachiel, Dickey, Sol Duc). The Quinault was not on the formal list, Gross said, but probably would fall in line if the package is adopted by the state. The package would: n require release of all wild steelhead n limit the use of bait only at times and locations hatchery steelhead return n require barbless hooks at all times. n prohibit floating devices on the Hoh. n prohibit floating devices with internal combustion engines on all north coast rivers. The state is soliciting comment on the recommendations submitted by the advisory group, by Nov. 12. To review and comment, visit http:// wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/regulations/ rule_proposals/.

Heat’s Green hospitalized after incident at residence By Barry Jackson Miami Herald

Heat guard Gerald Green was hospitalized for undisclosed reasons on Wednesday after an incident in which police were summoned to his residence. Green, 29, was not arrested, according to the city of Miami police department. Police call logs show that police were summoned to the Marquis Residences Condominium, at 1100 Biscayne Blvd., at 10:46 a.m. Wednesday because of a “male down.” According to a source, MiamiDade Fire and Rescue requested assistance because of a “combative patient” at that address, where Green lives. Police assisted but did not write up a report and nobody was arrested at the condominium, according to a police department source. Multiple witnesses at the condo told TMZ that Green “was

acting strange in the lobby of the condo ... screaming at the top of his lungs.” TMZ said it was by told by several people “that there was a huge commotion and it took several people — including emergency personnel — to restrain Green and get him on a stretcher and into an ambulance.” Heat guard Mario Chalmers, who lives nearby, was at the scene, tried to help and accompanied Green in the ambulance to the hospital, according to TMZ. The Herald has confirmed that Chalmers was with Green at the hospital on Wednesday afternoon. “This morning we were informed that Gerald Green was admitted into the hospital,” the Heat said in a statement. “Right now our concerns are with Gerald and we have no further comment at this time.” Bill Duffy, one of Green’s

agents, did not respond to a call seeking comment. Green was inactive for

Tuesday’s game against the Hawks with an undisclosed “illness.” Green has never been suspended by the NBA for an off-court incident, and there is nothing documented in his past to suggest anything related to mental illness. During the summer, the Heat signed Green to a one-year, $1.4 million contract, which was considered a bargain for a player who has averaged 10.2 points in his career and was fourth in the NBA in 3-pointers two seasons ago. He led the Heat in scoring in preseason and averaged 10.3 points on 32.3 percent shooting in the Heat’s first three regularseason games. The Heat did not practice Wednesday and flew to Minneapolis on Wednesday afternoon to begin a two-game road trip that begins Thursday in Minnesota and ends Friday at Detroit.

Cavaliers’ James stands up for Lakers’ frustrated Bryant By Marissa Payne The Washington Post

Kobe Bryant is going through tough times right now and he knows it. “I suck right now,” he said earlier this week, and since then he’s been living up to his words. On Tuesday night, Bryant missed a couple of three pointers in a row during the Lakers’ 120-109 loss to the Nuggets -- their fourth loss in four games. One of Bryant’s misses was a particularly ugly air ball that left the 37-year-old so frustrated

that he seemingly forgot to play defense. But Bryant has at least one very famous friend on his side and that’s Cavaliers star LeBron James. “He knows he don’t suck,” James told the Akron Beacon-Journal’s Jason Lloyd on Tuesday. “C’mon man, it’s Kobe Bryant.” James added: “What I see is a challenge to himself. It has zero to do with his age. Zero. I think at one point in my career, in my 20s, I felt like I sucked. It’s all a personal challenge. I know him.

... That’s all that is.” While James, 30, is certainly attempting to be friendly, his words might also be predictive of what could become of his own future. Bryant’s and James’s career trajectories are not dissimilar. Both came to the NBA straight out of high school and both have taken basically no time off to rest their bodies. If they’re not playing professionally, they’re playing for Team USA. Those kinds of minutes on the court are not easy on a player at any age, but are especially

compounded when you don’t give your body any real rest periods year after year. Bryant, who was forced to sit out the majority of the last two Lakers seasons due to injury, has started all four games this season. He’s shooting 32.3 percent from the field and 20.6 percent from beyond the arc. James, meanwhile, has also started in all four games. He’s landing 52.1 percent of his field goal attempts, but a dismal 7.7 percent from beyond the arc. Of the 13 three pointers he’s attempted, he’s only drained one.

SEASON | Capsules

Washington Last season: 16-15, finished 11th in the Pac-12 Conference. Coach: Lorenzo Romar. Season opener: vs. Texas on Nov. 13 in Shanghai, China. Key returners: Andrew Andrews is really the only returner for the Huskies. Washington has nine new faces on its roster and will lean heavily on Andrews for leadership and scoring. Andrews averaged 15 points per game last season, second on the team. Swingman Donaven Dorsey also returns, having dropped weight and hopefully being more consistent shooting from the perimeter. Dorsey was third on the team with 30 3-pointers last season but needs to be less of a liability defensively to stay on the court. Who left: Nearly everyone is gone. Leading scorer Nigel Williams-Goss transferred to Gonzaga. Oft-injured forward Jernard Jarreau transferred to Tulane. Robert Upshaw was kicked off the team midway through last season. Shawn Kemp Jr. and Mike Anderson are also gone. The skinny: No team in the Pac-12 had more turnover than the Huskies and that leaves them very much an unknown going into the season. Will the young freshmen, led by Dejounte Murray, flourish playing a high-paced, pressure tempo more akin with Romar’s teams of the past? Or will they experience the expected growing pains that come with relying on so much youth and little experience around them? No one questions Washington’s talent, but whether it shows this season is the big unknown.

Washington St. Last season: 13-18, lost in first round of Pac-12 tournament. Coach: Ernie Kent. Season opener: vs. Northern Arizona on Nov. 13 in Pullman. Key returners: Josh Hawkinson, with 14.7 ppg and 10.8 rpg, was Pac-12’s most improved player last season; Ike Iroegbu, 8.9 ppg. Who left: Leading scorer DaVonte Lacy, 16.9 ppg; Jordan Railey, 6.6 ppg; Dexter Kernich-Drew, 6.6 ppg. The skinny: Washington State lost leading scorer Lacy to graduation, but doubledouble specialist Hawkinson is back for a team that is picked by media to finish last in the Pac-12.

Gonzaga Last season: 35-3, advanced to Elite Eight of NCAA Tournament. Coach: Mark Few. Season opener: vs. Pittsburgh on Nov. 13 in Okinawa, Japan. Key returners: Kyle Wiltjer, last year’s leading scorer, averaged 16.8 points per game; 7-footer Przemek Karnowski is back after averaging 10.9 ppg and 5.8 rpg; Domantas Sabonis, the team’s top pro prospect, returns after averaging 9.7 ppg and 7.1 rpg as freshman. Who left: Four-year starting back court of Kevin Pangos and Gary Bell Jr., who combined for 137 3-pointers last season, graduated. Byron Wesley, a graduate transfer from USC, exhausted his eligibility after averaging 10.6 ppg last season. The skinny: Gonzaga returns perhaps the nation’s best front court and is expected to win another West Coast Conference title and make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Associated Press

Zags unsettled at guard

Cougs reject prediction of last place

9th-ranked Bulldogs have questions in back court, front court set

By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

SPOKANE — Ninth-ranked Gonzaga enters the season set just about everywhere except at guard, a position of stability for years that now raises questions. Not that coach Mark Few is without potential answers. Four-year starting guards Kevin Pangos and Gary Bell Jr. graduated along with senior transfer Byron Wesley, leaving the Zags looking for the right back-court combination among a host of talented options as they seek another deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Freshman Josh Perkins, who is a candidate to replace Pangos at point guard, said practices have been intense as he battles with fellow guards Kyle Dranginis, Eric McClellan and Silas Melson to catch the eye of coaches. “We are all playing for minutes,” Perkins said. “We’re going to push each other.” Gonzaga’s situation is settled elsewhere. The Zags return the talented front court of Kyle Wiltjer, Domantas Sabonis and Przemek Karnowski to a team that reached the Elite Eight last season, though Few said “this team is a little void of leaders.”

The schedule Gonzaga plays its typical killer nonconference schedule, designed to make up for playing in the modest WCC. This year they open against Pittsburgh in Okinawa, Japan, play Washington in the Bahamas, play host to No. 12 Arizona and UCLA in Spokane, play Tennessee in Seattle and SMU in Dallas.

The Great Karnowski Przemek Karnowski, who goes by Shem, is on the Kareem Abdul-Jabbar Center of the Year watch list. The native of Poland clogs up the middle with his bulky frame and shot .622 from the field last year. Karnowski

Huskies From Page C1

Andrews, the team’s second-leading scorer last season at 15 points per game, will move to point guard after spending most of his career as a two guard. He’ll lead an offense that Romar hopes will play fast and free, like his better teams of old. “The other day in practice,” Andrews said, “he grabbed me aside and told me I’m pushing the ball too slow up the court. And for me, I was thinking, like, ‘man, I’ve been pushing the ball pretty fast,’ but he wants me to go as fast as possible, all the time.” The Huskies traveled

Gonzaga’s Kyle Dranginis steals the ball against North Dakota State in an NCAA tournament game this past March. Gonzaga won 86-76.

“This is very much a team that will hopefully be on a growth trend all year,” Few said. “We are trying to hit the Zags standard.” Much of Gonzaga’s success will depend on the three big men, who are all considered pro prospects. The 6-foot-10 Wiltjer led the Zags in scoring at 16.8 points per game last season and added 6.2 rebounds. “Kyle is as skilled a player as there is in college basketball,” Few said. “As skilled as I’ve ever coached.” Sabonis, the 6-11 son of former NBA center Arvydas Sabonis, averaged 9.7 points and 7.1 rebounds per game as a freshman off the bench. “With Domas, you get the heart of a lion,” Few said. “The guy is so physical, tough and aggressive

Wiltjer doesn’t wilt Forward Kyle Wiltjer was named the CBS Sports Preseason Player of the Year. Last season he led the team with 16.8 points per game

to California two weeks ago to play a closed scrimmage against Saint Mary’s, an exercise that Romar said “pretty much just showed us all of our warts.” “I think it served as just kind of a mirror, so to speak, so we could really see what we’re about at this point,” Romar said. “Our guys came back afterward and realized we still have some work to do, even though there were stretches where we did really well.” Lengthening those stretches is the priority against SPU. “We don’t want to go out there and not take it as a real game and not be serious,” Murray sad, “so we’re taking it serious, and I’m just really excited.”

and yet has a good feel for the game.” The 7-foot-1 Karnowski averaged 10.9 points and 5.8 rebounds per game and blocked 39 shots. “Shem is the unsung hero in all this and a guy I think will be a solid NBA guy for years,” Few said. “An excellent passer, great footwork and a high-level defender.” The Zags posted a 35-3 record last season, losing to eventual national champion Duke in the Elite Eight. They were 17-1 in the West Coast Conference, losing only at home to BYU. WCC coaches have picked the Zags to win their fourth straight league title and 15th in the past 16 years. They have played in 17 straight NCAA tournaments, one of the longest streaks in the nation. and shot a team-best .466 from behind the arc while making 68 3-pointers. Wiltjer played two years at Kentucky, where he won a national title. Last year was his first with the Zags, and he was named an AP Third-Team All-American.

Reloading The cupboard is never bare at Gonzaga. This year they have three transfers sitting out who become eligible next season. They include Nigel Williams-Goss, who led Washington in scoring last season, plus Johnathan Williams from Missouri and Jeremy Jones from Rice.

Washington State coach Ernie Kent isn’t buying the media prediction that his Cougars will finish last in the Pac-12 this season. “If we’re the last-place team, this conference is going to be a really, really good conference,” Kent said at Pac-12 media day. The Cougars finished eighth in the Pac-12 in Kent’s first season at the helm, and lost leading scorer DaVonte Lacy to graduation. This year’s team has three returning starters, led by Josh Hawkinson, who averaged 14.7 points and 10.8 rebounds per game last season. He led the Pac12 in rebounds and the nation in defensive rebounds per game. The 6-foot-10 Hawkinson, a Shorewood High School alum, is the team’s go-to guy, but should have more help from a deeper team this year, Kent said. “I know there’s going to be a lot more guys behind you that can back me up and have the same type of production,” Hawkinson said. “I’m not worried about trying to increase what I’m doing or do too much. I’m just trying to stay even keel.” Other returning starters are guards Ike Iroegbu, who averaged nearly 9 points last season, and Ny Redding, who averaged 3.3 assists per game. Other returning contributors are Brett Boese, Que Johnson and Junior Longrus. Kent welcomed seven new players, including four junior college transfers. He called this the best group of big men he has ever coached. “I’ve got two 7-footers that are pretty big basketball players that are going to help us,” Kent said. “I’ve always had really good guards.”

Things to know about the season

Improvement In Ernie Kent’s first season, Washington State (13-18, 7-11 Pac-12) won four more Pac-12 games than the season before.

ability to push tempo should help the Huskies get more shots but finding another scorer to go along with Andrews is critical.

Things to know about the season

Head coach Lorenzo Romar can’t wait to see the Huskies’ athleticism on display. Not offensively, but at the defensive end. “I think we have the ability to pressure the basketball more than we have in the last two or three years,” Romar said. Once known for its pressure defense, forcing turnovers and pushing the pace, Washington has been passive in recent years and more reactionary at the defensive end. That should change because of the athleticism and depth of the roster. Washington forced just 11.2 turnovers per game last season, the fewest of Romar’s tenure.

Find scorers Andrew Andrews was Washington’s second-leading scorer last season, but the Huskies averaged just 68.6 points per game. That was second-lowest with Romar in charge and ninth in the Pac-12. The

Seattle connection Washington’s best success under Romar has come with Seattle-area players at the core. There’s a definite Seattle presence on this roster with six scholarship players from the area.

Greinke opts out of contract with Dodgers

49ers decide Kaepernick needs a break

Herald news services

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The most celebrated pitching tandem in baseball was broken up Wednesday — at least temporarily — when Zack Greinke exercised a provision in his contract to become a free agent. Greinke could still return to the Dodgers and resume his partnership with Clayton Kershaw, but that would almost certainly require the team’s front office to do something out of character and offer a long-term deal to a pitcher who turned 32 last month. Greinke forfeited a guaranteed $71 million over the next three seasons to venture back into the open market, where he is expected to land a nine-figure deal. The top pitcher on the market last year, Max Scherzer, signed with the Washington Nationals for $210 million over seven years. Jon Lester landed with the Chicago Cubs for $155 million over six years. Greinke is older than Scherzer and Lester were last winter — Scherzer and Lester were 30 — but he is coming off a dominant season. The co-favorite for the National League Cy Young Award alongside Jake Arrieta of the Cubs, Greinke was 19-3 with a major league-leading 1.66 earned-run average. The last time a pitcher had an ERA that low was 1995, when Greg Maddux of the Atlanta Braves had a 1.63 ERA. As a right-handed complement to the left-handed Kershaw over the last three seasons, Greinke started 92 games for the Dodgers, posting a 51-15 record with a 2.30 ERA. Mark Walter, the Dodgers’ controlling owner, has said he would leave the decision about Greinke to Andrew Friedman, president of baseball operations, and Farhan Zaidi, general manager. Neither club executive has commented publicly on the club’s plans. “If this is Zack’s last season with us, I’ve had a great time playing with him,” Kershaw said last month. “Definitely some of the most fun I’ve ever had watching someone pitch every five days. I hope it’s not the last one.” But Greinke’s performance made his decision Wednesday entirely expected. When Greinke signed a sixyear, $147 million contract leading up to the 2013 season, the Dodgers included the opt-out provision as a compromise for their refusal to grant him a notrade clause. The Dodgers could now pay for that decision. Their only healthy starting pitchers under contract are Kershaw and Alex Wood, a midseason acquisition who was 5-6 with a 4.35 ERA in 12 starts for them.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Three years after Colin Kaepernick took over as starting quarterback and led the San Francisco 49ers on a Super Bowl run, coach Jim Tomsula decided that his struggling quarterback needed a break and his dormant offense needed a change. Tomsula officially announced Wednesday that Blaine Gabbert will take over the starting role at quarterback from Kaepernick this week as the Niners look for any kind of spark they can get after failing to score a touchdown three times in the past five games. “In no way is 2-6 all on Colin Kaepernick,” Tomsula said. “That’s all of us. OK. That’s all of us. Everybody here on the Niners. We all take a big chunk of that. That’s a concerted effort that needs to change. This was just a decision that I wanted Colin to step back and breathe and look at things through a different lens.” Tomsula did not commit to a long-term change, saying only that Gabbert will start this week against the Falcons. The 49ers have a bye next week and then travel to Seattle on Nov. 22. Gabbert, a former first-round pick by Jacksonville, has not started a game in more than two years and has thrown just seven passes the past two years as Kaepernick’s backup. But he said he feels more prepared for the challenge than he did as the starter for the Jaguars. “When I got in the league as a 21-year-old, you haven’t seen really anything,” he said. “Going into my fifth year, just the experiences that I’ve had preparing for games, playing in games, starting games, being a backup quarterback. It’s valuable over time to have those repetitions in practice and on the game field.” Tomsula hopes that time away from playing can be beneficial to Kaepernick. After making a rapid rise from backup to Alex Smith to Super Bowl quarterback in his second season in 2012 under former coach Jim Harbaugh, Kaepernick’s career has been on a decline the past two seasons. This year, he’s bottomed out. He took the 49ers back to the NFC title game following the 2013 season, but his performance dropped off last year and was abysmal for the first half of this season. He was completing 59.9 percent of his passes for just 6.6 yards per attempt, with six TDs, five interceptions and a careerlow 78.8 passer rating. “It’s not all Kap’s fault,” receiver Torrey Smith said. “This doesn’t fall 100 percent on Kap. Unfortunately at the quarterback position, when things aren’t going well, you’re going to be the person that’s evaluated the most and the hardest. It’s on us now to try and continue to grow and change and see if it adds a spark.”

Royals’ Gordon opts out After a decade as a Kansas City Royal, Alex Gordon will test the open market. Gordon, the longest-tenured Royal, declined his $14 million player option for 2016. He can sign with any team starting Friday as a free agent. The Royals would like to re-sign Gordon. Gordon would like to remain a Royal. The only thing standing between both sides finding a happy resolution is a contract larger than the Royals have ever before granted in free agency. The market for Gordon is expected to be sizable, with teams such as Baltimore, Boston and Houston, among plenty of others, speculated as possible landing spots. Gordon could command a fiveyear contract worth as much as $20 million per season, according to rival executives. The Royals would prefer a shorter deal, in deference to both Gordon’s age (he turns 32 next season) and the rising costs of teammates Eric Hosmer, Lorenzo Cain and Mike Moustakas.

Chisox decline option on Ramirez CHICAGO — The White Sox have declined a $10 million option on shortstop Alexei Ramirez and owe the former All-Star a $1 million buyout. The 34-year-old Ramirez has played his entire career with Chicago after leaving Cuba and is a .273 hitter with 109 homers and 542 RBI in eight seasons. He was an AL All-Star in 2014 but batted a career-low .249 this year with 10 homers and 62 RBI.

Angels decline option on Murphy ANAHEIM, Calif. — The Los Angeles Angels declined their $7 million contract option for next season on outfielder David Murphy, making him a free agent. Murphy gets a $500,000 buyout. Los Angeles acquired Murphy from Cleveland in late July.

New England quarterback Tom Brady has thrown 20 touchdown passes for the 7-0 Patriots.

Making a run at 16-0 Patriots, Broncos, Bengals and Panthers are 7-0 By Mark Maske The Washington Post

The NFL has four teams at 7-0 for the first time ever, making a league known for its any-given-Sunday parity perhaps the most top-heavy it ever has been. So as the season reaches its midway point for those unbeatens, the New England Patriots are not the lone threat to go 16-0. What if it is, instead, the Denver Broncos, Cincinnati Bengals or Carolina Panthers who make the most sustained run at an unblemished regular season? “In the league we try to create parity as much as we can,” said Steve Mariucci, the former coach of the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions. “But boy, oh boy, it seems like the good teams are staying pretty good and the poor teams are having a hard time building it back up for some reason. But the Patriots look like they have a chance to go undefeated now and so do the Broncos. Peyton Manning looked great the other night. That defense is incredible. How they destroyed the Green Bay Packers, I didn’t see that coming.” It is a highly unusual circumstance. The NFL never before had more than two teams reach 7-0 in the same season. That last happened in 2009. The Patriots, in the season after DeflateGate, are the most obvious choice to duplicate their 16-0 regular season in 2007, when they steamrolled the rest of the league in the aftermath of the Spygate scandal. Those Patriots upped their record to 18-0 before being upset by the New York Giants in the Super Bowl, falling one agonizing step shy of joining the 1972 Miami Dolphins (who went 17-0) as the only perfect NFL teams. Patriots quarterback Tom Brady again is having a most valuable player-caliber season with 20 touchdown passes, one interception and a passer rating of 115.8. He had 50 touchdown passes, eight interceptions and a 117.2 passer rating in the 16-0

season in 2007. But the Bengals, with Andy Dalton, and the Panthers, with Cam Newton, also have quarterbacks who are in the league MVP conversation. Dalton has 15 touchdown passes, four interceptions and a 107.6 passer rating. Newton’s throwing numbers aren’t as dazzling with his 11 touchdowns, eight interceptions and a passer rating of 78.1. But he has run for 286 yards and four touchdowns. He has played with a recklessness that has stunned onlookers. Analyst Jon Gruden marveled during ESPN’s telecast of the Panthers’ overtime win Monday night over the Indianapolis Colts at the jarring hits absorbed by Newton while the quarterback showed a willingness to run over as well as around defenders. Manning’s early-season struggles for the Broncos have been well documented. He has thrown 11 interceptions to go with his seven touchdown passes. But he is an all-timegreat quarterback. And he summoned some of that greatness when he threw for 340 yards Sunday night in Denver as the Broncos knocked the Packers from the ranks of the unbeaten with a 29-10 triumph. That is the sort of assistance that Manning must continue to provide to a Denver defense that is ranked first in the league. The Panthers also are ranked in the NFL’s top 10 in total defense, at 10th. The Patriots are 12th and the Bengals are 22nd in total defense. But Cincinnati and New England both are in the top-10 in scoring defense. The Patriots and Bengals are in the top-six in total offense, while the Broncos are 17th and the Panthers are 19th. But Carolina is ranked fourth in the league in scoring offense. So the Denver offense, potentially just bolstered by this week’s trade for tight end Vernon Davis, is the only noticeable weak link among the offensive and defensive units of the undefeated teams. Making a run at 16-0 also brings schedules, motivation

and luck into play. The Patriots must play at Denver on Nov. 29. The Bengals play at Arizona later this month and at Denver on Dec. 28. The Broncos, in addition to hosting the Patriots and Bengals, play at Pittsburgh on Dec. 20. The Panthers host the Packers this Sunday. Carolina also must play at New Orleans in December and still faces the Atlanta Falcons twice. So there is plenty of sorting-out to be done with the now-unbeaten teams playing each other and facing other difficult opponents, not to mention the possibility of lurking upsets. There also will be the question late in the season of what will — or won’t — be at stake if a team is closing in on 16-0 but already has wrapped up its playoff seeding. Not every coach would make the same choice that the Patriots’ Bill Belichick did when he played his starters against the Giants in a memorable 2007 regular season finale at the Meadowlands that set the stage for those teams’ Super Bowl rematch. “It won’t happen,” one NFL coach said recently of a 16-0 season, “because it doesn’t matter to most teams. It’s not the ultimate goal.” So even with four NFL teams sitting at 7-0, it remains a long shot that any will go 16-0. But it at least creates some intriguing possibilities. “This is going to be really interesting with the Patriots going out in Week 12 to play the Broncos because both teams look like the real deal right now and of course, that’ll come to a head,” Mariucci, an analyst for the NFL Network, said in a conference call with reporters this week. “I mean, even these Cincinnati Bengals who are undefeated, when you look at their schedule, they look like they can go on a little bit of a run. They will play at Arizona in a couple of weeks and then they will play at Denver in Week 16. But the undefeated teams right now have a chance to have great records, great records going in there.”

Fitzpatrick to start for Jets FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — It’s a thumbs-up on Ryan Fitzpatrick starting Sunday for the New York Jets. Coach Todd Bowles announced Fitzpatrick will be under center against the Jacksonville Jaguars after being a full participant at practice despite dealing with a torn ligament in his left thumb. “No limitations today,” Fitzpatrick said. “Really, just kind of a trial run to see how it was going to feel and what the best way to do (things) going forward would be in terms of using it or not using it and all that. Today was a pretty positive day in that regard.” The right-handed Fitzpatrick wore what he called “a special glove” over his left hand after tearing at least one ligament in his thumb that will require surgery at some point. He was hurt on the first drive of the Jets’ 34-20 loss at Oakland last Sunday. “Well, it’s painful enough to get me out of changing diapers,” said the father of five. “That’s been the one positive.” Fitzpatrick will “probably” wear the glove during the game against the Jaguars, and added he’s “extremely confident” he’ll be able to play through the injury the rest of the season.

Manziel to start for Browns CLEVELAND — With starting quarterback Josh McCown unable to play because of a painful rib injury, Johnny Manziel will start Thursday night’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, who treated him so rudely as a rookie on the road last year and now get him on their home turf. McCown was unable to practice Tuesday because of his ribs — and sore shoulder — and Browns coach Mike Pettine announced the decision to start Manziel on Wednesday before the team left for Cincinnati.

Sounders: 3 additions have scored in playoffs Murphy wins two From Page C1

Midseason signings often do not pay immediate dividends in Major League Soccer. Even accomplished veterans can take a while to adjust to the physicality of MLS. And then there’s the many more miles of travel than anything most had previously endured. The challenges can be compounded if the players don’t speak English — although Friberg, Ivanschitz and Valdez do. Still, they had their ups and downs. Valdez managed a goal and an assist over seven regular-season appearances, Ivanschitz a goal and an assist over

Football From Page C1

Both throws, offensive coordinator Jonathan Smith said, were dictated by coverage. On the first, UW sent a player in motion, which led to “a little bit of bad eyes” by the Arizona defender who should have

six, and Friberg no goals and two assists over 13 matches. “I think you also saw the difficulties of midseason signings, where Andreas took a while to kind of get up to speed and ready and get his sharpness back,” general manager Garth Lagerwey said. “Again, it’s not surprising, considering he didn’t play from May until September. With Valdez, you had a little bit of the opposite probably where you had him playing straight through Copa America and kind of being banged up and have a harder time recovering because he really didn’t have a break. ... I

can’t say that we learned anything that we didn’t expect with these guys, but the good news is that they are coming through as we thought they might be able to in the context of helping us win some big games.” From the start, the players provided an infusion of talented depth that has given Schmid options when injuries and international call-ins have taken players such as Clint Dempsey, Obafemi Martins, Marco Pappa and others from the game-day roster. That could come in handy again this weekend in Dallas, when Evans, Osvaldo Alonso and Leo

Gonzalez all remain questionable with injuries. “It’s made a huge difference,” Schmid said. “Marco Pappa had a little bit of a hamstring, and Andreas has stepped in and played all those games. Valdez has been in and out a little bit with the calf thing, but he’s been able to contribute major minutes for us as well. And their ability to raise the game: Those guys have been in big games, and so Andreas and Valdez and Friberg, they’re able to raise it, they know what’s at stake.” The Sounders are off Thursday. They will return to training Friday morning before flying to Texas in the afternoon.

picked up Washington. On the second, Arizona pressured, and Washington sprinted right past the outside defender. Gaskin leads the team with 655 yards rushing on 108 carries, and is very much the team’s lead back. But Washington can still tote it, too — he ripped off a 69-yard touchdown run on Saturday — and

his skills as a receiver have made him an intriguing weapon in the passing game. “I just think he gives you a little more versatility with his size and speed,” Bhonapha said. “Especially when you’ve got a back that you can pretty much count on catching the ball out of the backfield, it definitely makes

himself a threat and really adds another element in the offensive strategy, week to week.” Said Smith: “We’ve got a few things that we know specifically he’s going to be in, and those are a little bit designed to go his way. Again, coverage is going to dictate a lot of times where that ball goes, and that’s how it’s played out.”

to earn state berth Herald staff SHORELINE — Archbishop Murphy swept both Bellingham and Anacortes in the 2A District 1 tournament Wednesday to advance to the championship match and earn a state playoff berth. In the first match, junior Sam Hayward’s 24 kills paced Archbishop Murphy over Bellingham by set scores of 25-16, 25-19, and 25-19. Sophomore Natalie Hayward added 33 assists. In the semifinal, Hayward again led the Wildcats with 17 kills in a 25-18, 25-14, 25-13 win over Anacortes. The Wildcats will face Burlington-Edison at 7 p.m. Saturday at Shorecrest High School in the district championship match. “It was an unbelievable night,” Archbishop

Murphy second-year head coach Brandon Jones said. “It was one of those nights when you think about it days before and it works out even better. Before the match they played duck-duck-goose ... Nothing bothers this group. ... They take each game all the same. I’ve never had a team like this in my 20 years of coaching, they are amazing.” Last year the Wildcats went 1-2 in the state tournament losing in a five-set match with eventual state winner Tumwater. “Our seniors are invaluable, (Lauren Braswell and Megan Ehlegracht) are tremendous positive leaders. This group does the fundamentals so well and all those little details add up to doing the big things well. These girls just really love playing volleyball together,” Jones said.

ain gardens do triple duty. They provide an attractive habitat for you and the neighborhood wildlife to enjoy and use. They can prevent basement flooding and “bog yard” by directing runoff away from your lawn and house foundation during the rainy season. And perhaps most important, they improve the health of the Salish Sea and other waterways in Snohomish County by reducing the amount of stormwater flowing into storm drains. Runoff from roofs, driveways and

other impermeable surfaces carries toxins and pollutants; a rain garden captures that excess water, filters out the pollutants and uses the water to sustain an attractive, low-maintenance garden. The rain garden example here uses mostly native plants, but you can select plants to create a pollinator garden (to attract bees, butterflies and hummingbirds), a four-season-interest garden, a color-themed garden, or almost any design you like. A well-designed rain garden will be very low-maintenance, once it’s established.

Ponding area Soil/compost mix Compost is a very important part of the system. 12 inches to 24 inches of soil/compost mix on top of existing soils is needed in the bottom of the ponding area.

Side slopes Gradually sloping sides (2:1 maximum) allow plantings to take hold and a measured water flow to prevent erosion.

Ponding depth to allow six to 12 inches of standing water is typical. The size and depth of the garden depends on your soil type and the amount of runoff the garden needs to handle.

Lined with rocks. This is where the water is directed into the garden. (An outflow trench should be at the other end). Water can come to the inflow area via a rock-lined swale or a pipe.

NOTE: The best time to build and plant is in fall or spring, when soils are moist. You can plant in summer, but keep new plantings watered the first year to get them established. Avoid winter construction. Contact Washington State University Extension for the “Rain Garden Handbook for Western Washington.” It has detailed information on how to plan, design, build, plant and maintain a rain garden. The handbook includes plant lists for the three zones suitable for our area; how to test your soil for drainage rate; how to determine the best location; a list of experienced contractors, if you need some help with the construction; and a step-by-step guide to creating a thriving, useful rain garden. Website: raingarden.wsu.edu

Sandy soil drains quickly. Clay soil drains very slowly. You can test the area where you want to put the rain garden to see how fast it drains and calculate how much soil to excavate.

Buster Brown items can fetch lot of green

JAMES D. JULIA INC.

Buster Brown and Tige have been the faces in ads for Buster Brown shoes since 1904. This tin sign, made to rock on a store counter, auctioned for $1,778 in 2015.

INSIDE: Great Plant Pick, 2

uster Brown first appeared in a comic strip in 1902. He and his dog, Tige, were characters in the very popular strip, but they became even more famous as a trademark for many products. The creator of the strip, Richard F. Outcault, went to the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair and sold the rights to use his cartoon characters to about 200 companies. Three companies still use the character and the name: Brown Shoe Company, Buster Brown Apparel Inc. and Gateway Hosiery, makers of Buster Brown socks. There was a Broadway show featuring Buster Brown in 1905. Although the strip was discontinued in 1920, there were movies with live actors from 1925 to 1929. Then Buster went on to sponsor a radio show from 1943 to 1955 and a TV show from 1950 to 1956. He was given a more up-to-date

look for his advertising in the 1980s and ’90s, but the hat and Tige remained. Collectors want all sorts of memorabilia from toys and games to advertising signs. A vintage 91⁄2-inchhigh Buster Brown die-cut tin sign was sold at a Maine auction for $1,778 in June 2015. It was made with a curved bottom so it would rock on the store counter and attract attention. Q: I have a tea infuser marked on the edge “Tiffany and Co 20085 Makers 25884 Sterling B25 1008 7K.” What is it worth? A: Tiffany & Co. tea infusers sell for about $100. The company started in 1837 when Charles Lewis Tiffany and John B. Young opened a “stationery and fancy goods” store. The company began making silver hollowware in 1851 and was the first American company to adopt the British silver standard, .925 parts of silver out of 1,000 parts. It became famous for its

silver hollowware and flatware and also for jewelry. When Charles Lewis Tiffany died in 1902, his son Louis Comfort Tiffany became the company’s first art director. He started his own business and made stained glass, lamps and many types of art glass. Tiffany & Co.’s flagship store is on Fifth Avenue in New York. Q: A few months ago your column included a picture of a bookcasecabinet that sold for more than $5,000. We have a similar one in black walnut with a lot more detailing on it that belonged to my mother-in-law and father-in-law, but they always called it a “secretary.” What is the difference? A: A secretary is a desk with a bookcase top. Most of them have slant-front desks with drawers below. The auction house described the piece in our column as a bookcase See KOVEL, Page D2

Ilex crenata “Mariesii,” columnar Japanese holly

What: Unlike most other Japanese hollies, which are mounding or spreading shrubs, “Mariesii” heads straight for the sky, creating a dark green exclamation point in the garden. Crowded on its erect, green-maturing-togrey stems are tiny, round, glossy, evergreen leaves. At their outward edges they often have three even tinier spines. “Mariesii” is a female clone from Japan that has been cultivated outside of Japan since about 1880. If pollinated, its flowers develop into black fruits. columnar Japanese holly is the perfect accent plant for setting off shrubs with rounded forms and larger leaves. It makes a strong enough statement to be a focal point, either in the garden or in a container. Where: This Japanese holly is easy to grow in full sun to light or open shade. It will grow best in well-drained soil, but will tolerate sandy sites or clay if the drainage is adequate. It is drought tolerant once established. Light pruning will help it to keep a tight upright form Size: Reaches a height of 3 feet with a spread of 1 foot. GreatPlantPicks.org

and cabinet. It had a dropfront that looked like a drawer but opened up and became the desktop. The drawers below were closed off by doors, similar to a cabinet. Q: We inherited a C19 Chippendale Edison Diamond Disc phonograph. It’s in excellent condition and has a full rack of records in the cabinet. We also have the key that locks the top lid and bottom door. We don’t want to sell it, but are wondering what it’s worth. A: Although Thomas Edison invented the phonograph, his company was one of the last to switch from cylinder recordings to disc records. The first Edison Diamond Disc phonograph, so named because it had a diamond stylus, was made in 1912. Several models were made until 1927. There are not a lot of collectors for these. In excellent condition it’s worth about $300.

We have many pieces and are trying to decide whether to sell them or buy more to complete the set. A: Porcelain was made in Sarreguemines, Lorraine, France, beginning about 1775. Transfer-printed wares and majolica were made in the 19th century. The 19th-century pieces, most often found today, usually have colorful transfer-printed decorations showing peasants in local costumes. Used

dinnerware is difficult to sell. Some resale shops won’t even take it. If you decide to add to your set, you should look online for a china-matching service. Q: What is an antique music box in excellent running condition worth? It’s marked inside “Jacot’s ‘Safety Check,’ Patented April 10, 1883 and Sept. 22, 1886.” It plays eight songs and is 221⁄2 inches wide by 7 inches high. A: Jacot and Sons was an importer in New York City that held patents for a device that “checked” the music box cylinder and kept it from spinning too

fast and damaging the pins and teeth of the combs. Most of the boxes with Jacot’s Safety Checks were made by Mermod Freres of Ste. Croix, Switzerland. In working condition it could sell for as much as $900. Q: I went to an estate sale that had a great collection of vintage lipstick tubes. These were ornate lipstick tubes, even mini works of art in gold, silver, wood, bakelite, celluloid and enamel. There were at least 250 of them. Each tube had a piece of paper rolled inside with the date it was purchased, from the 1920s through the 1940s. I bought

several tubes but regret not buying the lot. Was there any monetary value to this collection? A: A collection is worth about 25 percent more than the total value of the individual tubes. The lipstick tubes you bought are not worth what you paid even if they are no longer part of a large collection. Lipstick tubes by famous designers in 18-carat gold or precious jewels sometimes sell for several thousand dollars. A Van Cleef & Arpels 18K gold ladies’ lipstick tube case sold recently for $2,460. Ordinary tubes by an unknown maker sell for $5 or less. Some special tubes for popular brands also are popular. Tip: An early knife with a pointed end was used to get food to your mouth. Forks were invented in the 18th century and after that table knife ends were rounded.

My dogwood is blooming and other random thoughts

ormally at the first of each month I dispense my gardening wisdom in the form of a monthly to-do list, something I suspect many of my readers loathe because of the ensuing guilt they feel knowing they won’t get half of it done. Considering that last week I wrote about putting the garden to bed for winter, there’s no point in beating the same information into the ground a second time. Several customers have shared with me recently that some plants in their yards are all of a sudden blooming out of season and they want to know why and if they should be concerned. It is not uncommon for plants to

STEVE SMITH THE WHISTLING GARDENER sport a few blooms in the fall and it is usually caused by the simple fact that fall weather and day lengths are similar to spring. The likely reason we might be seeing more of this behavior this fall is because of the hotter summer weather and prolonged drought, which forced some plants into a pseudo state of dormancy. When the cooler temperatures and moisture

returned, they woke up again, thought it must be spring and sent out some blooms. It is nothing to worry about and the worst thing that will happen is that the plants will have fewer blooms come spring. Since this kind of reaction is often stress related, it would be a nice gesture to give blooming plants a treat of some organic fertilizer this fall along with a top-dressing of mulch to hold in the moisture and keep the weeds down over the winter. Finally, if ever there was the perfect time to plant bulbs it would be this month. Nothing could be easier than digging a hole, dropping in a handful of bulbs, covering them back up and forgetting that you

Dreamy boho bed requires conscious effort Decorating is about two things: style and comfort. Nowhere in your house are these two considerations more important than in the bedroom. Comfort in the bedroom means getting a good night’s sleep, which is why having the right pillow is essential. Achieving success in style and comfort is challenging for most; all of the decisions — color, pattern, design, shape and feel — can leave you overwhelmed. One such overwhelmed friend of mine called me the other day to help her style her daughter’s new bed. Everything else in the room — the paint, lighting and furniture — had been completed. All that was left was buying the bed linens, which, given that all other

decisions had been made, should have been the easiest part finishing the room. Not surprisingly, however, her 18-year-old had a strong opinion of what she wanted: a cool mix of textures, colors and patterns, a bed that matched her breezy “I don’t really care very much, but I look good anyway” style. Although companies such as Anthropologie have perfected this one-stopshopping Bohemian look, my friend did not want to take the easy route; she wanted the bed to be truly eclectic, as though she and her daughter had traveled the world collecting blankets from bazaars and pillows from exotic peddlers — a layered look that is harder to achieve than the haphazard way it appears. I gave my friend the same advice that I give people

when they are assembling fabrics for their rooms: In any given space you want a mix of patterns, textures and colors that complement each other but that don’t look too matchy. I always suggest you begin by choosing the boldest, most decorative pattern first. A large-scale floral, damask, tribal textile or embroidery — any of these would work. Whether this item features big or small on the bed — throw pillow, quilt, or sheet — it will be your primary print, from which all other selections are made. Next, layer in a solid or semi-solid fabric. Choose one of the colors from your primary print and find a solid fabric with texture, such as alpaca, velvet, leather, Mongolian lamb, linen or a beaded textile in that hue. This will act as a

helpful grounding fabric. Sustainable Gardening Then pick one or two more complementary patterns in different scales.

Note to mom: Focus on grown son’s needs

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion. Hi, Carolyn: My 32-year-old single son announced last night that he won’t be joining the family for Thanksgiving dinner. He feels our gatherings are forced and if he came he would be bad company. Our small family has its quirks like most. We are all local and I reminded him that it’s only two hours to offer. He has usually been the more demonstrative of my sons so this disappoints me. I suggested that someday he’ll recognize the importance of family. I think he already does, but is dealing with his own disappointments in “loves lost,” masking it with declarations of emotional independence. I’m prepared to not make a big deal of this and let him realize (or not) on his own. Any thoughts? — Turkey’s Mom My first thought is to wish you’d approached this in terms of what your son is feeling about himself instead of what he’s taking away from you. Doesn’t tending to his needs also count as “recogniz(ing) the importance of family”? Holy guilt trip, Mom. And tell me you didn’t just call him a turkey. It’s just two hours, yes — so not

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT making a big deal of it is a no-brainer. But your son’s unhappiness might be a huge deal, depending on how deep it runs and how well-equipped he is to address it. I suggest you find it in you to recognize that you reacted badly, then apologize to him for that. Say you let your disappointment crowd out what should have been concern for his present mood. Ask what you can do. And some pre-emptive advice, just in case: If you’re making a big deal out of the “single” part (“My 32-year-old single son”), then stop doing that, too, since that alone can make two hours seem like an eternity. Treat him as whole. Listen to him. Follow his lead. Re: Thanksgiving: I’m a 32-year-old single daughter who likes and loves my family. I haven’t missed a Thanksgiving,

but I do usually get a twinge of ... sadness, I guess, at not having someone to bring home with me (or go home with). Not something I spend a lot of time dwelling on usually, but I can easily see how, if I were coming off of recent “loves lost” or otherwise feeling lonely, I might take a pass for the year. Please give your (adult!) son some room to do that. Plus, you’re local and it sounds like you’re having dinner regularly, so you and your son can still get plenty of family time on a less loaded day. Also, and at the risk of piling on, please don’t write off his declarations of emotional independence as a “mask.” That’s what coming to terms with yourself as a single adult can look and sound like. It’s OK. — Anonymous Well-argued, thank you. Re: Thanksgiving: Please realize that when you ask a loved one to just suck it up and show up (even if you use more tactful words), you’re saying that you don’t care whether this person you love enjoys the holiday or not.

Exhausted daughter avoids mom’s calls Dear Abby: My mother calls me all the time. I answer sometimes, but sometimes I don’t because I feel she wants to know too much about my life. I work full time with the public. When I get home, I’m tired. I have talked to people all day long, and I really don’t feel like entertaining her. My mother tends to be negative, snotty and, most of the time, offensive. If there’s a storm or an accident on the news, she calls me repeatedly until I call back. Who wants to call someone back who acts that way? I try to be positive and upbeat. Sometimes she drains my energy. — Put Off In The Pacific Northwest Dear Put Off: Explain to your mother that at the end of the day you don’t have the energy to carry on a lengthy conversation with her. It wouldn’t be rude; it’s the truth. If she calls because she’s worried that the bad news she hears in the media could be about you, tell her that you have her listed as someone to contact if there is an emergency. Continue to be positive and upbeat, and stop hiding from your mother. Dear Abby: Would you PLEASE say a few words to those discourteous individuals in the gym who, even at 6 a.m., think it’s all right to sit on a piece of exercise equipment, texting, while others wait to complete their weight-training workouts and get to work? — Ted On The East Coast Dear Ted: The first rule of basic etiquette ANYwhere is to show consideration for the people around you. This applies not only to gym-goers who hog the equipment while texting, but also to the ones who RIP HAYWIRE

Dear Abby: I am 13 and the only job I have is baby-sitting. My brother and his girlfriend ask me to baby-sit their two kids, ages 9 and 6. They haven’t paid me for the last five times I’ve watched them. They say I should do it for free because it’s my niece and nephew. Shouldn’t I get paid? What should I do? Shouldn’t they pay me for the other times before I watch them again? — Working Teen In Iowa Dear Teen: If you had another way of earning money, I would say that, yes, you should watch your niece and nephew occasionally without charging. However, if your brother and his girlfriend agreed to pay in the past and have stopped, they are taking advantage of you. If that’s the case, you have the right to deny your services until you receive what they owe. Universal Uclick

grad Anna Faris) is eager to meet her. 9 p.m. Thursday, CBS Season 4 of “Elementary” finds Sherlock (Jonny Lee Miller) under increased scrutiny, thanks to his recent relapse. Arriving to check up on him is his estranged father, Morland (John Noble). Don’t expect a joyful reunion. 10 p.m., CBS. “I Love Kellie Pickler”: If you do, this new show might be for you. 10 p.m., CMT. From Herald news services

Less than three months after signing off from “The Daily Show,” Jon Stewart has signed an exclusive four-year production deal with HBO, the network announced Tuesday. The partnership will find Stewart developing “timely short-form digital content” for HBO Now, the network’s over-thetop subscription video service. The content will be refreshed multiple times throughout the day and will “view current events through his unique prism.” It will be produced with the assistance of cloud graphics company OTOY.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday, Nov. 5, the 309th day of 2015. There are 56 days left in the year. Today’s highlight: On Nov. 5, 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt won an unprecedented third term in office as he defeated Republican challenger Wendell L. Willkie. On this date: In 1605, the “Gunpowder Plot” failed as Guy Fawkes was seized before he could blow up the English Parliament. In 1781, the Continental Congress elected John Hanson of Maryland its chairman, giving him the title of “President of the United States in Congress Assembled.”

In 1872, suffragist Susan B. Anthony defied the law by attempting to cast a vote for President Ulysses S. Grant. (Anthony was convicted by a judge and fined $100, but she never paid the penalty.) In 1912, Democrat Woodrow Wilson was elected president, defeating Progressive Party candidate Theodore Roosevelt, incumbent Republican William Howard Taft and Socialist Eugene V. Debs. In 1935, Parker Brothers began marketing the board game “Monopoly.” In 1942, American showman George M. Cohan died in New York at age 64. Associated Press

Jon Stewart has signed on with HBO in an exclusive four-year production deal.

The content will also be available on HBO GO, the network’s streaming portal, and other platforms. The deal also includes a

of content every now and again,” Stewart joked. With his move to HBO, Stewart is following the footsteps of former “Daily Show” correspondent John Oliver, who scored his own show, “Last Week Tonight,” at the network following a well-received run as Stewart’s fill-in. The Stewart collaboration is the latest in a string of programming coups for the premium-cable giant, including partnerships with the producers of “Sesame Street” and former ESPN commentator Bill Simmons.

‘Hello’: Did Adele rip off Tom Waits’ song? Well, that didn’t take long. The inevitable Adele backlash has arrived less than two weeks after the English songstress initiated her messianic return with the release of her first single, “Hello.” Tom Waits fans claim that “Hello,” now the fastest-selling digital record ever, is a derivation of the 1973 Tom Waits song “Martha.” Unlike D.R.A.M.’s issue with Drake’s “Hotline Bling,” Waits fans aren’t piqued about the melody. They think Adele pinched Waits’s

lyrics. Both songs are about reaching out to lost lovers through the telephone. So what is the net result of this? Tom Waits’s fandom reveals itself to be just as self-serious as we suspected it was. The first few bars of “Hello” are also reminiscent of Lionel Richie’s “Hello.” If you just want to be a music grinch, you’re better off referencing Blur/ Gorillaz frontman Damon Albarn, who worked with Adele on “25” and called her “middle of the road” in

thing was that I was such a big Blur fan growing up. But it was sad, and I regret hanging out with him.” As Albarn predicted, Adele declined to use anything from their failed attempt at a collaboration. “None of it was right. None of it suited my record. He said I was insecure, when I’m the least-insecure person I know. I was asking his opinion about my fears, about coming back with a child involved — because he has a child — and then he calls me insecure?” Soraya Nadia McDonald The Washington Post

Will she use any of the stuff? I don’t think so. Let’s wait and see. The thing is, she’s very insecure. And she doesn’t need to be, she’s still so young.” Adele responded in a Rolling Stone profile,which was released Tuesday. “It ended up being one of those ‘don’t meet your idol’ moments,” she told the magazine. “And the saddest

Talk to specialist retailers to find one whose price falls within your budget and that will meet your home heating needs. 4. Stove or fireplace A variety of inexpensive and eco-responsible stoves and fireplaces are available on the market as primary heating sources or for providing extra heat. Whether they’re powered by electricity, propane or pellets, they add warmth to your decor, both literally and figuratively. 5. Heated floors There’s no doubt that heated floors provide the ultimate in even heat. This type of radiant electrical system has to be installed under stone, cement or ceramic tile floors. Heated floors also ensure a uniform temperature from floor to ceiling and are completely invisible and silent. Appealing, isn’t it?
