Jail might house Seattle inmates But Everett’s mayor wants more assurance that they won’t end up wandering the streets after they are released.

By Scott North and Diana Hefley

Seattle inmates each day under a proposed contract that Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson contends is irresponsible “and unfair to this community.”

The mayor on Tuesday wrote the County Council, urging it to send

Herald Writers

EVERETT — The Snohomish County Jail might soon resume locking up as many as 100

back for revision an agreement negotiated by the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office with the city of Seattle. The mayor wants more written assurance that people sent by Seattle to serve their time here won’t wind up wandering Everett streets upon release.

Sheriff Ty Trenary said the proposed contract already provides multiple ways to return inmates

to Seattle and that Everett’s worries are unfounded.

“We are really concerned there is a lot of fear for no reason,” the sheriff said.

Trenary has led reforms to make the jail safer to operate, including reducing its use as a place to warehouse people living with mental illness and addiction who are arrested for nonviolent

offenses, including petty thefts and illegal camping.

The sheriff insists he’s not about to now contract for trouble — inside or outside the lockup.

“I will absolutely cancel this contract with Seattle if we see an influx of homeless people” downtown linked to the change, Trenary said.

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

EVERETT — Marysville Police Sgt. Peter Shove waited in the back of the courtroom Tuesday until the man who shot at him and left him with nightmares was led away in handcuffs.

The patrol sergeant had asked Snohomish County Judge Ellen Fair to sentence Hans Hansen to the maximum for last year’s shooting spree that targeted police in three cities. Shove’s colleague, police Sgt. Jim Maples, was shot in the

Hansen fired a rifle at Shove as the officer attempted to stop him. Other police officers were pinned down by gunfire before Hansen was shot in the head and crashed his truck.

“Feel no pity for Mr. Hansen.

He bought and paid for this with every pull of the trigger,” Shove told the judge Tuesday.

Hansen was sentenced to 71 years in prison. At 44, the Lake Stevens man can expect to spend the rest of his life behind bars.

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE — Premera Blue Cross is eliminating jobs, but the company won’t put a number on how many or release other details.

Premera, one of the largest health insurers in the state, has been fielding questions this week from reporters about layoffs, said Eric Earling, the company’s director of communications.

He acknowledged that the company is cutting jobs, but he declined to say how many. He also objected to the word “layoff,” calling it a loaded term.

“Let’s be really clear, I’m telling you rumors about widespread layoffs are simply not accurate,” Earling said. “I want to be fair. We’re like any other large business. At times, Premera makes changes in a highly competitive and changing environment.”

He said he’s also fielded questions about the Mountlake Terrace-headquartered insurer withdrawing from parts of its business, such as the individual market, where people purchase health insurance on their own.

He said those rumors are also false.

“They’re just flat wrong,” Earling said.

Premera, which employs 3,800, provides health, life, vision, dental, disability and other types of insurance. The company’s management has been sorting through the rumors to “make sure we can give as accurate information as possible, as some of the rumors have been rather troublesome in their gross inaccuracy,” he said.

So, a turkey wants into a church ... the buzz Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — Days before Thanksgiving, a wild turkey chose an opportune time to show up on the doorstep of an Orlando church, appearing to seek shelter.

The large fowl appeared early Friday and spent the day pacing outside of St. Luke’s United Methodist Church, gazing into its dark

glass doors, media outlets in Orlando reported.

Church spokeswoman Dawn Fleming said the animal, now known as the St. Luke’s Turkey, wasn’t aggressive.

“It was like he really wanted to get in,” Fleming said.

Staff posted about the turkey on social media.

Fleming said that by Monday, a Facebook post had

reached more than 30,000 people and media outlets as far away as Norway had picked up the story.

“The St. Luke’s Turkey has gone global,” Fleming said.

Some online posters speculated that the turkey was at the church seeking pardon and protection from the Thanksgiving table. Others theorized that divine providence had

Special delivery

delivered the congregation a turkey dinner. “(P)ardon for sin and PIECE that endureth..I’ll take a dark piece please,” the Rev. Jennifer Stiles Williams, lead pastor at St. Luke’s, wrote on Facebook.

The turkey went on its way after Fleming said staff members were unable to find an animal rescue organization to pick it up.

That’s free with Prime, right? Amazon founder Jeff Bezos’ commercial aeronautics company, Blue Origin, has successfully landed a rocket upright, a key step in developing reusable rockets that can deliver payloads and people into space. During the test flight, the New Shepard capsule was sent 62 miles high before falling back to earth and landing at 4 mph (Page A9).

Good to know that if this drone thing doesn’t work out for Amazon, Bezos can still deliver your dog treats by booster rocket.

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Ed Stemler also alleged that Hansen is responsible for at least $98,000 in damages.

Hansen declined to say anything Tuesday before Fair handed down the sentence.

His attorney argued throughout the trial and again Tuesday that Hansen was a desperate man Oct. 15, 2014, suffering from severe depression. He wanted police officers to kill him.

The officers “know what Hans did but they don’t know Hans,” public defender Jon Scott said.

faced financial ruin and a significant health condition. His life was crumbling around him and he was hopeless and helpless, the defense attorney said.

But the defendant’s troubles don’t excuse his actions, Fair said. Plenty of people suffer from mental health issues and addiction and there is help available.

The defendant chose not to seek help, the judge said.

“On that night (Hansen) targeted, terrorized and traumatized not only police officers ... but the communities as well,” Fair said.

His actions went beyond trying to force police to end his life, the judge said.

He put countless people in danger and it’s lucky no one died, she added.

A Snohomish County jury earlier this month convicted Hansen of multiple counts of first-degree assault and drive-by shooting. Jurors

couldn’t reach a unanimous decision on whether Hansen committed attempted first-degree murder when he shot at Maples and Marysville police officer James Tolbert.

After shooting at police stations in Granite Falls and Lake Stevens, Hansen fired an AK-47 at least 33 times at Tolbert and officer Bronwyn Kieland.

Stray bullets struck homes.

Maples was next. Hansen fired more than a dozen times at the sergeant’s patrol car. He was struck in the leg and took shrapnel in the thigh.

ELECTION 2015

Tight Lynnwood race up for recount

By Jerry Cornfield and Rikki King Herald Writers

EVERETT — You can put the 2015 general election in the books, though it isn’t quite finished in Lynnwood.

Snohomish County officials on Tuesday certified the final vote

totals for the Nov. 3 election but still must conduct a recount to settle a contest for a Lynnwood City Council seat.

In that race, Position 5 incumbent Benjamin Goodwin had 2,745 votes, or 49.94 percent, while challenger Chris Frizzell had 2,726 votes, or 49.59 percent.

Because the tallies are within a

half-percent difference, a recount is required, Snohomish County elections manager Garth Fell said. Recounts are common in odd-year elections with lots of local races, he said.

Officials plan to separate out the Lynnwood ballots Monday, with a machine recount scheduled for the afternoon of

Dec. 3. They expect unofficial results from the recount that day and certified results to follow Dec. 7, Fell said.

Overall, this election didn’t excite most of the county’s registered voters.

Only 34.8 percent of them cast ballots, the lowest percentage since 1971, Fell said.

“It’s discouraging,” Snohomish County Auditor Carolyn Weikel said. “There clearly were important races and important measures on the ballot.”

The marquee match-up produced a new leader for Snohomish County.

Police: Prime time for ‘porch poaching’ A package-theft arrest in Marysville prompts warnings and recommendations to thwart thieves.

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — It’s known as “porch poaching” in the delivery business.

And the poachers are on the prowl these days.

“During the holiday season there is definitely a spike in package thefts,” said Jeremy Leder, an inspector with the U.S. Postal Service in Seattle.

At this time of year, thieves know that they’re likely to be stealing gifts, which can be more valuable than boxes they might

pilfer at other times of the year.

On Monday, Marysville police caught up with a suspected package poacher. They arrested the Lake Stevens woman, 31, for investigation of theft, possession of stolen property and narcotics possession.

The victim reported the theft of the package to police late Monday morning. He discovered it while reviewing home security video. The theft occurred Nov. 16 from his front porch. The thief was a blond haired woman driving a small white sport utility vehicle.

A Seattle television station aired the footage, which led to a tip. On Monday night, Everett police notified Marysville police they had detained the suspect in the Everett Mall parking lot while investigating a package theft in that city earlier in the day.

The suspect’s SUV was impounded while police were seeking a search warrant.

“It’s truly unfortunate, but the Christmas season brings about an increase in package thefts,” said Marysville police Cmdr.

Robb Lamoureux. “People definitely need to be wary of what valuables they are having delivered and left on their porch.”

Leder, of the U.S. Postal Service, recommends finding

alternatives for those who know a package will be arriving while they are gone.

Those options include having packages mailed to a work address, having them sent to a friend who is home during the day or having a neighbor pick them up. Calls also can be made to local post offices to hold packages for a later pickup.

Neighbors who spot anything suspicious should call police, he said.

This is a particularly busy time for the Postal Service. From Thanksgiving to Jan. 1, it expects to deliver more than 590 million packages.

SEATTLE — Nineteen people in seven states, including Montana, Utah and Colorado, have contracted E. coli in an outbreak linked to chicken salad bought at Costco, federal health officials said Tuesday.

People who bought chicken salad at any U.S. Costco store on

or before Friday were advised to throw it away, even if no one has gotten sick.

The strain of Shiga toxinproducing E. coli can be life-threatening, but no deaths have been reported in the current outbreak. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said five people have been hospitalized and two have developed a type of kidney failure.

The outbreak is not related to a recent case involving Chipotle restaurants in which more than 40 people were sickened. That strain was identified as E. coli 026.

The current strain has been identified as E. coli 157, which the CDC said is more likely to be life-threatening, especially in

EVERETT — A homeless man pleaded guilty last week to a knife attack that injured two people at a Lynnwood RV park.

Einar Hansen II faces nearly seven years in prison when he is sentenced next month. Hansen, 42, must undergo an evaluation for addiction to drugs or alcohol.

Prosecutors alleged that Hansen was intoxicated and high on methamphetamine June 19 when he began yelling that his motorcycle was stolen.

He confronted a man standing outside a motorhome and the two came to blows. Hansen was knocked to the ground and the other man went inside a friend’s motorhome. A woman tried to calm Hansen down after the scuffle. Hansen took a knife from his pocket and chased after the man, according to court documents.

He entered the motorhome and stabbed one man in the back. That man wasn’t involved in the earlier fight. He’d only come outside after hearing the commotion.

Hansen pushed past that man and stabbed the other man several times. The woman eventually persuaded Hansen to stop the attack.

Hansen tried to hug one of the injured men and apologized.

He jumped a fence before police arrived. A Snohomish County sheriff’s deputy and his dog found Hansen in some brush on 164th Street SW. The police dog was sent in when Hansen refused to surrender. He was taken to a hospital to be treated for dog bites.

His blood-alcohol level was .27 and he tested positive for meth.

Witnesses said Hansen frequently yelled as he walked around the RV park. Deputies located a motorcycle outside the park. It was listed as stolen.

Hansen pleaded guilty to two counts of second-degree assault.

Marysville: Bond rating upgraded Marysville’s bond rating has been upgraded from Aa3 to A1

The upgrade will allow the city to borrow money on more favorable terms and refinance existing debt. The increase reverses a downgrade five years ago.

Some of the strengths Moody’s identified during its financial review included strong rebounds in the city’s assessed property values, rapid job growth and economic expansion in the area, and availability of affordable land for residential and industrial development.

More information about the city’s financial status is online at marysvillewa.gov/123/Finance.

Sullivan will now begin a third term representing District 2, an area that stretches almost from Picnic Point to Kayak Point, including Everett, Tulalip, Mukilteo and nearby unincorporated areas. Because of term limits, this will be his final term.

Change is coming to Lynnwood regardless of the outcome of the recount.

Community Transit won big this election when voters approved a 0.3 percent increase in the sales tax within the district’s boundaries. The increase will take effect next April.

And with the final results, membership on the 15-member Charter Review Commission is now set.

LAKE STEVENS — A man remains in jail for a Nov. 12 shooting in Lake Stevens.

He was being held Tuesday on $50,000 bail for investigation of second-degree domestic violence assault, according to Lake Stevens police.

The shooting happened about 6 p.m. near the McDonald’s at Frontier Village. A husband and wife who are going through a divorce were having a custody exchange of their two children, both younger than 5, detective Dean Thomas said.

Witnesses saw the man firing a gun in the woman’s direction.

Reports varied on whether he was trying to hit her. No one was injured. He was arrested and booked.

A 12-inch pipe failed underneath the asphalt Nov. 1, just east of 60th Avenue W. Seven homes lost water, and about 300 feet of roadway buckled.

Work on the temporary fix is wrapping up, City Engineer Jeff Elekes said Tuesday. A temporary water line was set for the affected homes and isolated the area of damaged pipe. Damaged asphalt was removed and new paving was installed.

Crews may have to dig back into the road in the near future, so final paving has not been scheduled. That’s likely to occur in the spring, after it’s decided what to do with the water line, Elekes said.

The affected stretch of the water main is part of the last 1,000 feet of asbestos-lined concrete piping in Lynnwood. All of it may need to go. Engineers were working Tuesday to determine the options and the potential costs.

The Lynnwood-Mountlake Terrace city limits splits the street

Opponents of I-1366 file new suit in King County

By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — Opponents of Tim Eyman’s latest taxlimiting initiative filed a new lawsuit this week seeking to have the law invalidated.

The complaint against Initiative 1366 was filed late Monday in King County Superior Court. It says the measure, which was passed by voters earlier this month, is unconstitutional and is asking the court to throw it out.

I-1366 gives lawmakers

a choice: let voters decide on a constitutional amendment that, if passed, would require a two-thirds majority in the Legislature to raise taxes, or see a cut in the state sales tax on April 15. Currently, taxes can be raised through a simple-majority vote of the Legislature.

The complaint says the measure is unconstitutional for several reasons, including because it attempts to change the state constitution via initiative and because it exceeds the scope of the initiative power

as well as rules that prohibit initiatives from covering more than one subject.

Washington’s Office of Financial Management has estimated the initiative would reduce revenue to the state budget by $8 billion through the middle of 2021, if its tax-cut element becomes law. Opponents have said such a cut would be devastating in the face of court-ordered mandates for the state to put more money into education and mental health.

“Where the legislature has already been held in

contempt for failing to fully fund public education, the impacts of such a significant reduction in state revenue will be particularly devastating on essential state programs, infrastructure and services, including basic education,” the lawsuit reads.

Previous voter-approved initiatives sponsored by Eyman required a supermajority vote on taxes, but the state Supreme Court struck down that requirement in 2013, saying it was unconstitutional.

The group suing now,

which includes two Democratic lawmakers and the League of Women Voters of Washington, also sued during the summer to keep the measure off the ballot, arguing it overstepped the powers granted to the citizen initiative process.

In August, King County Superior Court Judge Dean Lum found that I-1366 appeared to do just that. The state Constitution cannot be amended by initiative, he said, nor can the process of amending the Constitution be proposed by initiative.

Instead, amendments must

originate in either house of the Legislature.

Nevertheless, Lum declined to block the initiative from the ballot. The Supreme Court agreed that the measure shouldn’t be blocked from the ballot, but opened the door for opponents to continue their legal efforts against the measure.

In an email, Eyman called the newest legal effort a “sore loser response” and wrote that I-1366 was “carefully drafted to avoid any political and legal landmines.”

WWU cancels classes over hate speech on social media Associated Press

PHILIP A. DWYER / THE BELLINGHAM HERALD

The threats came days after some student leaders suggested that the mascot is racist. The posts did not mention a specific action against the students.

Most of the online comments contained racist language and profanity, making fun of the mascot debate and the students who proposed it. One post called black students crying babies and another complimented the school for having an “overtly Aryan” mascot.

The university of about 15,000 students boasts that nearly a quarter of its enrollees are from minority groups. The campus is known for its environmental education program.

The college also sends more graduates into the Peace Corps than any other

midsized university in the nation.

Law enforcement officials do not believe there is a threat to general campus security, but Shepard said a threat to any Western student is an attack on the whole college community. The decision to cancel classes was precautionary and to make sure students were safe, he said.

The school’s Thanksgiving break officially begins Wednesday.

“We take the feelings of safety of our students very, very seriously,” he said.

Even with more debate and protests about racial issues sparking at colleges across the nation, such as the University of Missouri and Yale University, heated discourse is not common on this campus.

“With disturbing social media content continuing through early this morning, students of color have advised me of their very genuine, entirely understandable, and heightened fear of being on campus,” Shepard said in his letter.

At Missouri, posts were made on social media threatening to shoot black people after protests about racial issues on that campus. The posts followed the resignations of the University of Missouri system president and the chancellor. A white college student at a sister campus was later

“The idea of having a critical conversation about our mascot and the reaction to that is a great illustration of the problem we have not just in our university, but in society,” said Eckroth, who is a member of the student government but said he was speaking personally, not as a student leader.

SEATTLE — After a racist thread on social media sparked outrage on a quiet college campus in Bellingham, college officials sent students home a day early for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Western Washington University sent out an alert cancelling classes and an email to students just after 6 a.m. Tuesday from President Bruce Shepard. It is unknown if the people who posted the threats are students at the state university in Bellingham, but the posts were made from a phone located within 10 miles of campus, Shepard said.

“I need to be very clear here: we are not talking the merely insulting, rude, offensive commentary that trolls and various other lowlifes seem free to spew, willy nilly, although there has been plenty of that, too.

No, this was hate speech,” Shepard wrote in an email posted on the university website.

A series of threats against minorities were posted over the weekend on Yik Yak, an anonymous social media platform popular among college students.

The posts mentioned almost every ethnic group, including blacks, Muslims, Jews and American Indians, blaming them for an effort on campus to debate changing the university’s mascot, a Viking.

arrested for making a terrorist threat.

Shepard said debate about the Western Washington’s mascot has come up on occasion and he welcomed the discussion.

Some students do not believe a white European man is a good representation of their school, but Shepard, who is retiring at the end of this academic year, said he doesn’t plan to change the mascot.

Patrick Eckroth, a senior from Port Orchard, said there is a problem with

Jail: Would bring in $3 million a year From Page A1

I will absolutely cancel this contract with Seattle if we see an influx of homeless people.

Seattle officials approved the contract this week. The County Council is scheduled to weigh in Monday.

The agreement is expected to bring in about $3 million a year to help pay for the county’s day-to-day expenses.

The county for years had jail contracts with the state Department of Corrections and nearly a score of cities and counties around the Puget Sound region.

Then a string of in-custody deaths, many under Trenary’s predecessor, led him to closely scrutinize how the lockup was being used.

Built to house up to 1,200 inmates, the jail routinely contained 1,300 people, many of them sleeping on portable plastic beds.

In keeping with recommendations from federal corrections experts, Trenary took steps to dial back the jail population and improve inmate screening. He imposed booking restrictions to make it tougher to jail people arrested for nonviolent misdemeanors and for those whose health issues can’t be safely addressed behind bars.

The jail’s average daily population is now down to about 750 inmates.

That reduction is seen everywhere in the lockup, except for units equipped to care for inmates living with mental illness and those detoxing from

substance abuse, particularly heroin.

The County Council earlier this year encouraged Trenary to examine whether enough progress had been made to again allow for contracting. The review suggested the jail might operate best with an average daily population of about 900, Trenary said.

Seattle always had been a good partner, and was interested in again sending some of its inmates to Everett, sheriff’s Bureau Chief Tony Aston said.

The contract specifies that Seattle may only send inmates to the Snohomish County Jail who are serving sentences for misdemeanor convictions.

The county can reject any inmate it deems to have a medical or psychiatric condition that would present a safety risk or create an “extraordinary care

burden.” Examples include people detoxing from drugs or alcohol, insulin-dependent diabetics, inmates who use wheelchairs and those requiring specialized mental health housing.

Inmates from Seattle who would meet the contract criteria historically have been people who don’t create trouble, want to serve their time and often have families waiting for them upon release, Aston said.

“This is not an illegal camper sleeping on a sidewalk,” Aston said.

Stephanson, however, wrote in a letter to the County Council on Tuesday that there is a concern that “many inmates are released from the jail into homelessness.”

The city’s Streets Initiatives Task Force unanimously agreed that it should be a top priority to return inmates to the communities where they lived before being jailed. Everett, like many cities around the county, is struggling with what appears to be a growing homeless population.

Stephanson is concerned that Seattle’s inmates will add to the street population here.

He is urging the County Council to change language in the proposed contract to assure that Seattle’s inmates are not released onto Everett streets.

The contract already specifies that the jail will transport up to 10

Seattle inmates back to King County three to five times a week. Inmates also will be moved down to Seattle on the regular transportation cooperative already in place.

The contract also calls for Seattle to provide its inmates with bus vouchers to return home.

Everett’s proposal goes further. It wants the two agencies to “make every effort” to return Seattle’s inmates to King County.

It suggests that inmates could sign a waiver to stay in custody until transportation can be arranged.

“We ask that you reject the contract as written and approve it only with strong assurances that every possible measure will be taken to ensure Seattle’s inmates” are returned to King County, Stephanson wrote.

“To do otherwise would be irresponsible, and unfair to this community,’’ he added.

Sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said there is no data that supports the assertion that inmates released from the jail stay in Everett if they lived elsewhere before incarceration. Trenary plans to ask the County Council to support a study to determine whether changes in jail operations are creating challenges in Everett.

“If there is impact of people being released into the community, we’ll fix it,” Ireton said.

Premera From Page A1

He said no one else at the company was available to talk about the job cuts, including CEO Jeff Roe. Companies are required to report layoffs of 500 or more workers to the state 60 days before those layoffs occur, said Janelle Guthrie, communications director with the Washington Employment Security Division. Some companies voluntarily report smaller layoffs, because it may result in additional benefits for their workers.

Earling said the number of job cuts did not require the company to send a notice to the state.

Premera has experienced positive growth in terms of members. But insurers are under competitive pressure from businesses to keep costs low.

“We’re actually finishing the year with record membership,” Earling said. “We’re up to 2.1 million members.”

Premera made news earlier this year when the company announced that computer hackers had accessed confidential information for 11 million patients.

The company said the breach occurred May 5, 2014, but was not discovered until Jan. 29. Six weeks later — on March 17 — the company publicly acknowledged the cyber attack.

The breach could have exposed members’ names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers, mailing and email addresses, phone numbers, member ID numbers and bank account information.

The information dates as far back as 2002 and affects users of Premera Blue Cross, Premera Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alaska, and Vivacity and Connection Insurance Solutions.

OBITUARIES AND MEMORIALS one that is dear to you that you love them…right now…it just might be your last chance...

Mary Vaughn Armstrong

Kathy Burton To my everlasting love and best friend, Kathy Burton

“Oh my goodness…Roger

Burton…you are as cute as ever…so much fun to see all the old friends from high school on Facebook.” Kathy

That one simple sentence

on Facebook four years ago has changed so many l i ve s … i n s u c h a p o s i t i ve …and tragic way…forever.

My newlywed wife of three

and a half months, Kathy Burton, passed away after a brief, but brave struggle with medical failure issues. God must have seen how truly great of a woman she was to everyone she touched in life that He lessened her pain by having the greatest s e t o f d o c to r s a n d s t a f f members at Cascade Valley Hospital to take care of her right to the end. I know without a doubt that she’s already in heaven.

Kathy McRae was born in 1964 to parents, Ron and Claire McRae and grew up in Marysville, Wash. Kathy was one of the more popular girls (in a good way) at MarysvillePilchuck High School as she was nice to everyone. Kathy lettered in Tennis and Softball and was a MPHS Cheerleader. Several years prior she suffered a massive blow when her Dad passed away unexpectedly. To this day she’d never gotten over losing him…but her stories about him sure brought him to life. In addition, her brother, Mark also passed away and Kathy never forgot all the memories of him. Kathy was also a Wrestling Cheerleader in high school and lo and behold, since I wrestled, that’s how I got to know her.

She was so perky and nice to be around that I never forgot her.

Af ter graduating high school in 1982 Kathy followed in her older sisters footsteps, Marta and Judy, and went off to WSU where at the age of 20 she earned her Education Degree “and” got her first teaching job all in the same year. Kathy also carried a K thru 12 teaching Certificate which is very rare nowadays.

During this time she was married to Brian Cayton and had two loving and caring daughters, Maris and McRae. She taught and coached Softball in Federal Way and later on when her family moved to California where she was hired as a PE Teacher at Alamitos Intermediate School in Garden Grove, CA. There, she taught PE alongside one of h e r l i fe l o n g b e s t f r i e n d s Brodt. Three and half years ago I helped pack her up and move back up to Marysville. Kathy has been a Substitute Teacher for the last several years in Snohomish County. Kathy also got to be around her sister, Judy and brother-in-law, Randy, along with all her nephews and niece and friends.

A Celebration of Life will be on December 5, 2015, at 1 p.m. at the Evergreen Unitarian Church Hall at 1607-4th St., Marysville, WA 98270 (old Methodist Church) with snacks and cof fee. Debby Estes and Kelly Sparks will be coordinating the events on Facebook.

W a l t e r w a s b o r n i n Aberdeen, Wash., growing up in Westport and Mukilteo, Wash. He was the oldest of W a l t a n d Ta n a ’ s f o u r children.

Walter followed in his father’s footsteps and enjoyed commercial fishing in Bristol Bay, Alaska.

Spending the summers f i s h i n g w i t h h i s f a m i l y, especially with his nephews, was something Wally really enjoyed. Walter loved spending time with his mom and one of his favorite memories was driving her around the U.S. Wally’s other passions included art, ceramics, woodworking, drawing, photography, Husky football, and being a proud member of “12’s”.

Wally will be sadly missed by h i s p a r e n t s , Wa l t a n d Ta n a ; b ro t h e r, M a r k ( K r i s te n ) , b ro t h e r, G l e n n ( Tr ev a ) , s i s te r, J e n ; n e p h ew s , Ky l e , C o l to n , Ethan, and Jack; aunts Candy and Miz; and his furry friend, Sally.

2nd Paris attack was planned Associated Press PARIS — The man believed to have planned the Nov. 13 Paris attacks that killed 130 people and wounded hundreds more had likely planned to carry out another suicide bombing days later in the French capital’s business district, the Paris prosecutor said Tuesday.

Abdelhamid Abaaoud and an accomplice are believed to have been planning to attack La Defense on Nov. 18 or 19, Paris prosecutor Francois Molins said.

Abaaoud was among three people killed during a police raid on an apartment in a northern Paris suburb in the early hours of Nov. 18. His female cousin, Hasna Ait Boulahcen, died of asphyxia apparently from the explosive

vest detonated by a third person, who hasn’t been identified, the prosecutor said. The explosion led to part of the apartment collapsing.

Molins said the third person is believed to have been the accomplice with whom Abaaoud would have carried out an attack on La Defense, the high-rise district that is headquarters to major companies on the western edge of Paris.

The prosecutor said he “can’t be, and doesn’t want to be more precise” on the details suggesting such an attack had been planned. Information obtained Nov. 19 suggested “that the two attackers — Abaaoud and the man we found by his side in the apartment — were planning an attack consisting of blowing themselves up at La Defense either Wednesday the 18th or

Thursday the 19th,” Molins said.

The Nov. 13 attacks in Paris, claimed by the Islamic State group, targeted people enjoying a Friday night out at a packed concert hall, a restaurant terrace, a cafe and a friendly soccer match between France and Germany. In the hours after the killings, Abaaoud is believed to have returned to the sites of at least some of the attacks, including the Bataclan concert hall, even while special police forces were still there.

“The geolocalization of Abdelhamid Abaaoud’s alleged phone between 22:28 p.m. and 0:28 confirms a presence in the 12th, 11th, and 10th districts, and notably near the Bataclan concert hall,” Molins said. “This allows us to think that Abdelhamid Abaaoud returns to the crime scenes following the

attacks on terraces of the cafes and restaurants of the 10th and 11th districts while (special police) were still taking action at the Bataclan.”

On Tuesday, a judge also handed down terrorismrelated charges to Jawad Bendaoud, the only person so far in France known to be facing such charges directly linked to the Nov. 13 attacks.

He was charged with criminal association and detention of incendiary or explosive substances linked to a terrorist enterprise.

Bendaoud acknowledged in a television interview giving shelter to two people from Belgium in his home in SaintDenis but said he didn’t know who they were. The prosecutor differed and said his suspected links with the attackers were being investigated.

Attack escalates crisis Turkish F-16 fighter jets shoot down a Russian attack aircraft near the Turkey-Syria border.

WASHINGTON — The National Safety Council said 433 people will die in car crashes over the Thanksgiving holiday and another 52,300 will be seriously injured. It’s safe to assume that some of the dead and injured will be back-seat passengers who don’t wear seat belts.

The council’s holiday projections coincide with a report that says 883 back-seat passengers who weren’t wearing seat belts died in car crashes in 2013. And a third release of data — this for 2014 — says that 10,300 people who died either in the front or back seat were not wearing seat belts.

“Seat belts save lives,” said

CHICAGO — A white Chicago police officer who shot a black teenager 16 times last year was charged with firstdegree murder Tuesday, a day before the deadline for the city to release a video of the killing that many people fear could spark unrest. City officials and community leaders have been bracing for the release of the video, fearing the kind of unrest that occurred in cities such as Baltimore and Ferguson, Missouri, after young black men were slain by police or died in police custody.

As they prepared to share the dash-cam footage with the public, the mayor and the police chief appealed for calm.

D.C.: Former spy released A former National Security Agency employee convicted of selling defense and communication secrets he gained during his career has been released from federal custody 30 years after his arrest.

The sentence for Cold War-era spy Ronald Pelton, 74, ended Tuesday. He had been placed on home confinement several months ago to serve out the final stretch of his sentence and was released Tuesday from the custody of the Bureau of Prisons, aspokesman said.

VLADIMIR ISACHENKOV / ASSOCIATED PRESS

A Russian Su-24 takes off on a combat mission at Hemeimeem airbase in Syria on Oct. 22.

but said Turkey had the right to defend its airspace.

Turkey’s military said the Russian jet was warned multiple times before it was targeted by two F-16 fighter jets in the border zone in western Syria in mountains not far from the Mediterranean coast.

Turkey called for an emergency NATO session to discuss the incident but has not invoked alliance provisions that would involve other members in its defense.

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said after the meeting that NATO allies with intelligence assets near where Turkey shot down the Russian warplane had confirmed Turkey’s version of events and rejected Russia’s claim that its aircraft was flying over Syria and had not crossed into

Turkish airspace.

“The information we have from other allies is consistent with what we have got from Turkey,” Stoltenberg said in Brussels.

“This is a serious situation” that calls for prudence and de-escalation, Stoltenberg said. “We have to avoid that situations, incidents, accidents spiral out of control.”

A U.S. military spokesman confirmed that Turkish pilots issued 10 notifications to their Russian counterparts warning that they were in Turkish airspace and that the Russians did not respond.

“On the radio ... we were able to hear everything that was going on,” said Col. Steve Warren, spokesman at the Baghdad headquarters for U.S. forces operating in Iraq and Syria.

Last month, NATO decried a “troubling escalation” by Russian forces in Syria and raised concerns about attack missions within sight of the Western alliance’s borders.

Although Turkey and the United States oppose Assad, their warplanes have avoided the Syrian leader’s military and are instead bombarding the ISIS militant group, which controls parts of Syria and Iraq.

Russian aircraft have primarily hit non-ISIS rebels, including some groups that are backed by the United States and Turkey.

The fallout could complicate a diplomatic push to bring greater international coordination to the fight against the Islamic State. The radical group has claimed responsibility for the Nov. 13 Paris attacks that killed at least 130, as well as the Oct. 31 downing of a Russian passenger plane over Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula that killed all 224 aboard.

French President François Hollande met with Obama in Washington on Tuesday to discuss strategies against the Islamic State and parallel efforts to seek a negotiated end to Syria’s nearly five-year civil war.

Hollande is expected to meet later in the week with Putin and other world leaders.

Chicago cop charged in slaying of teenager

Four crew members on an Army helicopter were killed when it crashed Monday evening at Fort Hood, officials said. The UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter went down sometime after 5:49 p.m. in the northeastern part of the massive Army post. Emergency crews conducted “an extensive search” and reported that all four crew members were found dead. The Army said the crew was on a routine training mission.

The Washington Post NATO faced being thrust into a new Middle Eastern crisis Tuesday after warplanes from member state Turkey shot down a Russian jet that Turkish officials said had violated their country’s airspace on the border with Syria.

The incident marked a serious escalation that is likely to further strain relations between Russia and the NATO alliance.

Russian officials confirmed that a Russian Su-24 attack aircraft was shot down Tuesday morning but insisted it had not violated Turkey’s airspace.

Russia’s Defense Ministry said one of at least two pilots probably died during the incident, and a marine also was killed by apparent Syrian insurgent fire during a helicopter rescue operation to retrieve the downed airmen.

The downing brings renewed attention to a scenario feared for months by the Pentagon and its partners: a potential conflict arising from overlapping air missions over Syria — with Russia backing the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and a U.S.-led coalition conducting airstrikes against the Islamic State.

Turkish officials have accused Russia of repeated airspace violations since it launched airstrikes against Assad’s armed opposition in late September.

Russian President Vladimir Putin had strong words for Turkey, calling the incident a “stab in the back.”

In Washington, President Obama called for de-escalation

ACROSS THE U.S.

Mark Rosekind, administrator for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. “It’s the number one safety technology we have available. It doesn’t matter where you are in a vehicle, you should wear your seat belt.”

An estimated 87 percent of Americans now wear seat belts, but the number of people who wear them when riding in the back seat drops by nine percentage points, according to a study released this week by the Governors Highway Safety Association. People seem particularly prone to ignore the belt when riding in taxis.

“Too many adults mistakenly believe that they are somehow magically protected in the

back seat when they get into a for-hire vehicle,” said Jonathan Adkins, executive director of the GHSA, an organization of state highway safety officials.

“Convincing adults to buckle up, every trip, in every seat, will require a concerted effort among lawmakers and highway safety professionals.”

The GHSA report was authored by James Hedlund, a former NHTSA official.

“Families traveling together at the holidays often means adults sitting in the rear seats, where they might not be accustomed to buckling up in the same way they are when they get in the driver’s seat,” Hedlund said.

In making its grim forecast

of deaths and injuries during the four-day holiday weekend, the NSC estimated that 164 lives may be saved this holiday because of seat belt use.

The GHSA report points to two high-profile cases in which back-seat passengers died when not belted. CBS newscaster Bob Simon died this year when a riding in a limousine in Manhattan, and Nobel Pride winner John Nash and his wife were killed when thrown from a taxi in a crash in New Jersey.

In reviewing the 2013 fatal crashes in which unrestrained passengers were killed, GHSA found that 473 involved cars, 244 were in SUVs, 68 in vans and 98 in pickup trucks. Two were in taxis.

The horns and body of Nola, the northern white rhino who died Sunday at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, are being sent to the Museum of Natural History at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington to assist researchers.

Nola’s death leaves only three northern white rhinos in the world — all in the Ol Pejeta Sanctuary in Kenya. At 41, Nola was in rapidly declining health; zookeepers Sunday opted to euthanize her.

Nola arrived at the Safari Park in 1989 from a zoo in what is now the Czech Republic and quickly became a favorite of zookeepers and visitors.

AROUND THE WORLD Israel: Pulling citizenship Governments around the world seeking to strengthen their defenses against terrorism are threatening to revoke the citizenship of those joining the Islamic State or other militant groups training in the Middle East for global jihad. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday became the latest leader to call for stripping those defecting to extremism of their passports. He joins French President Francois Hollande and leaders in Belgium, Norway, Australia, Britain and Canada in proposing sweeping changes to constitutional protections to prevent those radicalized from returning to wage attacks in their Western home states. “Whoever joins ISIS will not be an Israeli citizen,” Netanyahu said.

Tunisia: Bomb on bus A powerful explosion tore through a bus carrying security guards for Tunisia’s president in the heart of Tunis, authorities said Tuesday, killing at least 11 people in what appeared to be the latest militant attack in the North African country. The blast hit the bus at rush hour on a main thoroughfare, officials said. The carnage was likely caused by a bomber who detonated explosives while on board the bus, Reuters reported. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, though ISIS militants targeted Tunisia twice this year.

Liberia: New Ebola death A boy died of Ebola on Monday, the first death from the disease since the country was declared Ebola-free in September. The 15-year-old died Monday in a hospital near Monrovia after testing positive for the disease last week.

His father and brother are being treated for Ebola, too. The September declaration was the second time it received such a designation this year. Liberia was deemed free of the disease in May, but new cases surfaced a month later. The virus can survive in semen, the eyes and other parts of the body long after it appears to be out of the bloodstream.

U.S. economy tops estimates Los Angeles Times WASHINGTON — The U.S. economy grew at a faster pace over the summer than initially estimated, a positive sign that could help convince Federal Reserve policymakers to raise a key interest rate next month.

Total economic output, also known as gross domestic product, increased at a 2.1 percent annual rate from July through September, the Commerce Department said Tuesday.

The figure was up from the initial estimate of 1.5 percent annual growth in the quarter, which had reflected a sharp cutback by businesses on their inventories in the face of a global

economic slowdown.

The economy grew at a 3.9 percent annual rate in the second quarter.

New data showed that the reduction in inventories in the third quarter wasn’t as severe as first reported.

Businesses reduced their inventories by $23.3 billion in the third quarter, compared with the earlier estimate of a $56.8 billion drop, the Commerce Department said.

Economists had expected third-quarter growth to be revised up to 2.1 percent.

Ian Shepherdson, chief economist at Pantheon Macroeconomics, said the new data shows the government “hugely

underestimated” how much retailers and wholesalers did to restock their shelves in September.

He forecast that fourth-quarter growth would be 3 percent, a bit lower than he earlier had expected, because the inventory revision means businesses would not have to do as much catching up at the end of the year.

Consumer spending in the third quarter was solid, growing at a 3 percent annual rate, which was revised down 0.2 percentage points from the initial estimate.

And a measure of business investment was revised up to 2.4 percent after increasing 4.1 percent in the second quarter.

Following a very weak first

quarter, the economy is on pace for annual growth this year of about 2.4 percent. That would be the same as last year.

The improved third-quarter figures add to the positive economic data, including a strong October jobs report, pushing Fed officials to signal an interest-rate hike could come next month.

The so-called federal funds rate has been near zero since late 2008 in an attempt to stimulate the economy.

Fed policymakers have said they could raise the rate slightly in December if the jobs market continues to improve and inflation appears to be increasing toward the central bank’s 2 percent annual target.

Bezos firm lands rocket The gentle, upright touchdown means the booster rocket could be used again.

Associated Press NEW YORK — A private space company announced Tuesday that it had landed a rocket upright and gently enough to be used again, a milestone in commercial aeronautics.

Reusing rockets, rather than discarding them, would be a big step toward making space flight less expensive.

The achievement produced “the rarest of beasts: a used rocket,” said Jeff Bezos, founder of the company Blue Origin. He is the CEO of Amazon.com Inc. Another private company, SpaceX, has tried to land boosters upright on a barge in the ocean but so far has failed.

Blue Origin said the unmanned flight took place Monday morning at its site in Van Horn in West Texas. The secretive company, based in Kent, did not invite reporters to attend. Its first test flight happened in April.

Its New Shepard vehicle consists of a capsule that is designed to take people into space for suborbital flights someday, and a booster. In Monday’s flight, the booster soared about 62 miles high and released the capsule, which parachuted to the ground.

After the separation, the booster began falling back to Earth. It slowed its descent by firing its engine, starting at about 4,900 feet above ground. It was

Japan launches commercial rocket The first Japanese rocket with a commercial payload headed into space Tuesday in a bid by Japan to enter the market for satellite launches.

The Mitsubishi Heavy Industries rocket took off at 3:50 p.m. from the Aerospace Exploration Agency launch pad on the island of Tanegashima.

It was carrying a telecommunications satellite for Canadian company Telesat. The rocket is an improved version of early models that Japan hopes will make it more competitive in the satellite launch market.

EVERETT — The Boeing Co. announced large orders from two Asian customers Tuesday.

EVA Airways ordered twinaisle airplanes worth more than $8 billion at list prices, though sales prices are typically negotiated down by as much as 40 to 50 percent. The Taiwanese airline ordered up to 24 787-10 Dreamliners and two 777-300ERs. Both are the biggest versions of their respective models.

The 787-10 will “support our growth well into the future,” EVA Airways President Austin Cheng said. “We believe the future of the airline industry will be built on fuel efficiency and cabin comfort,” he said. “The new Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner’s high fuel efficiency and long-range flying capabilities meets these requirements and our operational needs.”

The 787-10s are so big that Boeing plans to assemble them in North Charleston, South Carolina, where several fuselage sections are made.

The partially-assembled fuselages are too long to fit in the huge cargo planes that Boeing uses to ferry 787 parts to its assembly plants in South Carolina and Everett.

EVA Airways is in the process of replacing its older airplanes and expanding its fleet by 100 airplanes.

Aircraft lessor BOC Aviation has ordered 22 737s to keep up with expected customer demand. The Singaporebased company split its order between 11 Next-Generation 737-800s and 11 737 MAX 8 airplanes. BOC Aviation, which is owned by the Bank of China, ordered 80 737s last year.

Although NASA space shuttles also were reusable after returning to Earth safely, they were far more expensive than rockets, he noted.

“The goal here is low-cost reusability,” Logsdon said.

U.S. home prices rose in September from a year earlier at the fastest pace in 13 months as a lack of houses for sale has forced buyers to bid up available properties. The Standard & Poor’s/Case-Shiller 20-city home price index, released Tuesday, increased 5.5 percent in September compared with a year ago, the largest annual gain since August 2014. Steady job gains and low mortgage rates have propelled a solid rebound in home sales, which are on track to reach the highest level since 2007. Borrowing costs have ticked up but remain below 4 percent, a low level historically.

Layoffs cut into Microsoft diversity Microsoft is getting more male, and slightly more racially diverse, according to workforce data the company released Monday. Women made up 26.8 percent of Microsoft’s global workforce at the end of September, the company said, down from 29 percent a year earlier. That’s largely because of big layoffs that hit phone manufacturing units Microsoft acquired from Nokia, the company’s general manager of global diversity and inclusion said. Those factory floors and other units Microsoft shuttered were staffed by a larger proportion of female workers than the rest of the business, she said. “This is a decline we are not satisfied with,” she said.

“We know we can do better.”

ISIS sparks $50 billion Europe defense boost Bloomberg News LONDON — Europe’s defense industry is set to reap a $50 billion windfall as the Nov. 13 terrorist attacks on Paris prompt governments to ramp up spending on military capabilities spanning cyber security to fighter jets, armored vehicles and drones in an effort to defeat

Islamic State.

France, where Dassault Aviation’s Rafale fighter jet is made, has halted plans to cut almost 10,000 military personnel, while Germany will spend an extra 8 billion euros on defense and Britain has earmarked a further 12 billion pounds, benefiting companies including BAE Systems.

Italy said Tuesday it would devote 1 billion euros more to security, after the draft budget called for 2 billion euros of reductions.

European governments are rethinking their defense policies after years

of cuts tied to the draw down in Afghanistan and Iraq and austerity programs imposed after the global slump. The spending commitments will swell budgets that had already begun to revive amid heightened tensions with Russia after last year’s annexation of Crimea, with Britain committing in August to spending 2 percent of GDP on defense.

“Over the 2015-2019 period, an extra $50 billion will be added to Western European defense spending as a result of changes implemented this year,”

All Sales will be payable by CASH or CASHIER’S CHECK ONLY (made out to Snohomish County Treasurer) at the time of successful voice bid.

said Fenella McGerty, senior analyst for defense budgets at IHS Jane’s.

There’ll be an $11 billion uplift this year, she said, driven by adjustments in France, Germany and Britain that began with the Jan. 7 assault on the Paris offices of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

The most immediate response to this month’s attacks saw France join air strikes against Islamic State positions in Syria, with bombing sorties led

by Dassault’s Rafales, further burnishing the combat credentials of a warplane that’s enjoyed a string of overseas order successes after deployment in Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Mali and the Central African Republic since 2007.

Britain may follow suit, extending its anti-ISIS campaign from Iraq to Syria, after an announcement from Prime Minister David Cameron later this week.

While recent British bombing missions have been undertaken by aging Panavia Tornado aircraft designed for the task, Cameron confirmed in Monday’s defense statement that Royal Air Force Eurofighters, built by BAE, will get

enhanced ground-attack capability, allowing them to play a more active role, and a 10-year life extension that will effectively create two extra squadrons.

Britain will also take all 138 Lockheed Martin F-35 fighters initially ordered and triple the pace of deliveries to 2023, allowing deployment of two new aircraft carriers with a full roster of planes. BAE is an F-35 partner and RollsRoyce Holdings Plc helps make the engines, as it does on Eurofighter.

Cameron also reiterated a commitment to an Anglo-French venture for the development of military drones. Under an agreement signed last year, BAE and Rolls-Royce are working with France’s Dassault, Selex ES, Thales and Safran on a model along the lines of General Atomics Aeronautical Systems’s Predator. Thales also has a 25 percent stake in the Rafale.

Maps transforms into an X-Wing pilot or a Stormtrooper. Choosing between light and dark also creates a profile picture with a side-appropriate theme that you can share on social media.

According to a tracker on Google’s “Star Wars” page, its users appear to be stronger with the dark side of the Force, though by a fairly thin margin.

Before you jump into the fray yourself, though, there is one thing you should know: There have been some complaints

reconnaissance upgrades to its A400M military transport and A330 airborne tanker models, providing operators with a “cheap and simple” option for boosting intelligence gathering, according to Fernando Alonso, head of its military aircraft arm.

Germany’s Defense Ministry said in June it would purchase the proposed European-led air-defense system known as MEADS and opened bids for a new multi-purpose combat ships as part of a force modernization.

U.S. companies also stand to benefit from Europe’s rearmament, with two of three major new spending commitments announced by Cameron involving transAtlantic deals. Boeing Co. won a contract for nine P8 torpedo-fitted maritime patrol aircraft, and 600 Scout armored vehicles built by General Dynamics Corp. will form the core of new “Strike Brigades” due by 2025.

that signing up to get “Star Wars”-themed designs on Google products also put events on users’ calendars without their knowledge.

Google does say on its frequently-asked-questions page that “Star Wars events are automatically added to your calendar so you can keep up with the big events.” And, the company adds, those events may be visible to everyone if you have your calendar settings set to public.

While it’s true that people using a light- or dark-sidethemed profile pictures probably aren’t going to be shy about sharing their “Star Wars” enthusiasm, it’s still something to think about before you declare your allegiances.

IN OUR VIEW | Small Business Saturday

Reasons to shop on Saturday Despite announcements by several retailers that are bucking the trend of stores opening on Thanksgiving for the start of the holiday shopping season, including REI, Nordstrom and Costco, it can seem like a losing battle when Macy’s, Sears, Target, Walmart and other major retailers no longer are interested in waiting for Black Friday.

And it’s tough to argue that Thanksgiving’s focus be kept on family togetherness when part of the family splits off after the meal to watch football and/or nap. Might as well go shopping.

Thanksgiving now marks the start of a multi-day consumption blitz that includes Black Friday and Cyber Monday, when online shoppers skip the lines and do their shopping at the office. To get a sense of how much we spend online and at retail stores, an online coupon website,

couponbox.com, offers a page that estimates what Americans are spending in real time at Amazon, Walmart and Macy’s and for specific items.

It’s a little mesmerizing to watch the numbers roll up, and intriguing to see what we spend our money on. We spend more on beer than at Starbucks. Even though cigarette use has fallen among adults, we still spend about five times on tobacco what we spend on books. On the positive side, what we give to charity amounts to more than six times what we spend on the lottery.

But in between Black Friday and Cyber Monday, there’s a relatively new shopping holiday that deserves some promotion. Small Business Saturday began in 2010, a promotion by AmericanExpress, to encourage holiday shoppers to patronize the small businesses in their communities.

In previous years, the credit company has offered $10 to $25 credit statements for items bought at small businesses. AmEx isn’t offering that promotion this year, but has continued its sponsorship and advertising in the program. It’s website, tinyurl.com/ SmallBizSaturdayAmEx, offers tools for shoppers and small businesses.

The program appears successful in promoting small businesses. Last year’s Small Business Saturday generated about $14.3 billion in sales at independent shops across the nation, AmEx reports.

Our economy does depend heavily on consumer spending. As much as possible, many of us try to buy American-made goods and services because it supports U.S. jobs.

Likewise, shopping in our own communities, supports the jobs at those businesses. As of 2010, there were an estimated

27.9 million small businesses in the U.S., providing about half of the nation’s privatesector employment, the Small Business Administration reports. Local businesses, in turn, use the services of other local businesses, and often sell goods that have been made or grown in the area, supporting more local jobs.

But Small Business Saturday shouldn’t been seen as an act of charity. Shopping locally supports jobs in your community, but often the items and services for sale are of better quality and value than you might find at a major retailer and might even make a more thoughtful gift. Add to that fewer lines, smaller crowds, less jostling and maybe better cheer.

No doubt, there are deals to be had on Thanksgiving, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, but Small Business Saturday is a good deal for everyone.

I found the letter writer’s remarks inappropriate. Is she telling me I should look for news of Snohomish County on Page 299 of my copy of The Wall Street Journal?

revenue by raising the burden on renters.

Property taxes already are too high in Snohomish County. Enough is enough.

The taxing districts need to live within their means.

Chief Widdis’ scheme should be stopped in its tracks — DOA.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■REFUGEES

We can afford to help, and should After reading Sunday’s letter adamantly expressing what we should and shouldn’t do about refugees, it would be interesting to hear just what being that beacon of light means to the author. (“We can’t afford them, in any way.”) It might prove illuminating but with all her fears, maybe searchlight towers would be more fitting.

Historically, predisposed fears of “them” give way to and feed the mob mentality, which always turns out badly.

We should take to heart the examples the people of Paris and Charlotte, N.C., have shown in standing against the terror and hate by refusing to live in fear and change who they are and what they believe in.

Of affordability, consider trying to defend one of the richest nations and the world leader for freedoms declining to help because … it’d cost too much? We don’t always get to choose our moments, but it’s those moments that define us.

Dennis Doolittle Arlington

■■OBSCENITY

Definition differs by individuals Regarding the Oct. 6 letter, “Wrong to print obscene cartoon”: I got my copy of that day’s paper out of the recycle bin and looked at the two editorial cartoons. Which cartoon is the writer referring to — the one showing a corpulent Hillary Clinton bursting out of her clothes or the one with assault rifles on a weather map?

If you print letters complaining of the inappropriateness of something in the paper or society, make sure they are specific in what they are offended by.

Michael Koznek Snohomish

■■THE HERALD

Paper right to put local news first Regarding the letter, “Paris attacks underplayed”: Please come to reality and give The Daily Herald recognition for what it is: A valuable, trustworthy and competent local daily newspaper, serving Snohomish County first.

of Lynnwood, I have come to treasure and respect this local news organ (it is the first read of the two dailies to which I subscribe.) For example: In the Nov. 20 paper, I am gratefully informed, thanks to reporter Chris Winters, Buzz writer Jon Bauer, and Shirley Morales-Mora, my current Herald carrier, et al, of the Page 1 article, (where it belongs), “PUD still at work on power.”

Currently, I’m planning to celebrate Thanksgiving with in-laws who are yearslong residents of Monroe.

The above-mentioned article includes a notice of the passing of Grant Strinden, 23, who was killed when his vehicle was crushed by a falling tree. News, via The Herald, will enable me to empathize with my in-laws’ loss of a fellow citizen. This same article quotes Sultan Fire Chief Merlin Halverson saying, “I’m extremely proud of the people who work here.”

■■SNOHOMISH

Fire district plan is a non-starter Regarding Monday’s front page article, “Literally, no room for a change on fire district’s tax bills”: I have to take issue with the article’s statement “that means owners of commercial buildings and apartment complexes would pay more than single-family homeowners.” Well, they already pay more.

The current property tax system in Snohomish County is based on “assessed value.”

For example, a million-dollar apartment complex pays five times the taxes of a single-family home valued at $200,000.

The current system is fair and equitable, favoring neither homeowners nor renters.

This new scheme District 1 Fire Chief Ed Widdis is proposing reminds me of the Metropolitan Parks District, recently repudiated by 70 percent of the Snohomish electorate. Proponents cited Tacoma and Seattle as adopting the model. Snohomish County is not Pierce or King County.

It is ironic there is no room on Kirke Sievers’ tax form for this proposed “benefit” scheme.

In my opinion, this is just another stealth attempt to increase overall property tax

Morgan Davis Snohomish

■■OPINION PAGE

Cartoons aren’t varied enough I see the Opinion Page opted to display some cartoons in Saturday’s “The Drawing Board” which put down the party that is closest to supporting my beliefs.

Any chance that your employee will sometimes pick cartoons against the political party that believes in a way of life which I do not believe in?

Tom Markley Greenbank

■■PREP SPORTS

Wrong to run photo of player What is the explanation for the Herald printing the picture and name of Michaela Danyo on the front page of the sports section on Nov. 21 in her moment of grief after losing her soccer game?

The editor showed a very heartless and callous attitude toward a young woman in her moment of grief.

Shame on the Herald for printing the picture and owe the young woman an apology and maybe let the people responsible spend a week off work to contemplate this error in judgment.

Phillip Beardsley Lake Stevens

Our values are our best weapon against ISIS

O

ne difference between ISIS and those American preachers who claim the Bible requires murdering homosexuals: none of our presidential candidates have attended an ISIS convention. (Policy. mic: tinyurl. com/theylove-to-hate) The pastors represent Christianity the same way ISIS represents SID SCHWAB Islam; that is, for zealots who interpret their holy book literally, to whom progress is anathema and otherness intolerable, they absolutely do. At the fringes of humanity there have always been people whose projection of their own secrets and fears leads to attacking others. ISIS takes it to sickening, but not unprecedented extremes.

The mindset that leads Ben Carson to call evolution a lie planted in Charles Darwin’s head by the devil, or to Ted Cruz saying that we must never have a president who doesn’t begin each day on his Christian knees, is merely a less fully devolved form of the self-righteous certainty that leads ISIS to do what they did in Paris. If preachers haven’t murdered here, they’ve fomented it in Africa (L.A. Times: tinyurl.com/qcm74c6). And danced, ugly, on the graves in Paris (Daily Beast: tinyurl. com/dancing-on-graves). “Conservatives” demand that Muslims speak out against “their” terrorists. When their would-be leaders genuflect before homicide-justifying Christian homophobes, they’re silent.

Now, just as we refused entry to Jews during WWII, Republican candidates and Congress dwellers, along with, sadly, some Democrats, demand we stop admitting Syrian refugees. Are Japanese-American style internment camps unthinkable? Not to everyone. (USA Today: tinyurl.com/ round-them-up). Forced wearing of special I.D.? Jawohl! (Raw Story: tinyurl.com/ herr-trump) Between childish insults of his competitors because that’s what makes America great, Donald Trump claims that if Parisians had been weaponized, the attacks wouldn’t have happened. Right. A fanatic wearing a suicide vest would see an armed concert hall and say, “Geez, a guy could get killed in there.” Far from turning off his followers, Trump’s bombast has increased support among brave American exceptionalists, abandoning our values with astonishing ease. They call Obama “weak.” What is it when they cave on our most basic principles? Claiming patriotism, they deny the power of America’s ideals.

Terrorism won’t stop anytime soon, nor will terrified reactions to it, including discarding the standards that have actually made our country great, Mr. Trump.

Turning our backs on all Muslims is exactly what ISIS wants from us (Thinkpol: tinyurl.com/q3bz9ac). Against those governors, Republican patriots all, afraid of welcoming women and children, they’ve already won. (Vox: tinyurl.com/governing-by-fear) These are people fleeing horrific fanaticism, people who fear ISIS more than we do. Screening is already rigorous (Joe Biden: tinyurl.com/tell-it-Joe), and not just, per Jeb and Ted, ironically (tinyurl.com/bible-lesson), for Christians.

Here’s a braver response, from the husband of a woman murdered in Paris: (BBC News: tinyurl.com/bravery-personified).

It puts us and our politicians to shame.

So does this: (Willie Nelson: tinyurl.com/ sing-it-willie). These ill-informed, fully Foxolimtrumpified Texan bullies disgrace us all: (Dallas Morning News: tinyurl. com/texas-toughguys).

For its depth and detail, this comprehensive article about what ISIS wants is worth your time (The Atlantic: tinyurl. com/some-ISIS-info). Because their goal is to maintain a caliphate, holding territory is critical to their movement, which means that taking back their land is, indeed, of strategic importance. But done by whose troops? Not ours, the article suggests; our presence in Iraq spurred the creation of ISIS, after all. ISIS sees their deaths, along with ours, in war, on a battlefield convenient to their land. Which raises the central question: Would American troops in Syria really prevent people from exploding their suicide vests here? Maybe the answer lies in recalling the results of our invasion of Iraq in the first place.

In the end, it’s a battle of ideas. When we divest ourselves of our beliefs that might properly be called exceptional — religious freedom, diversity, education, generosity, our Constitution — we lose not just ourselves, but the very war we’re fighting. Letters to the editor, of late, display fear and claims that our president, choosing smarter ways to fight terrorism, is a traitor. We’ll never learn.

A summary of the ordinance is as follows: ORDINANCE NO. 15-090 MAKING A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION IN THE AIRPORT OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE FUND 410, THE SURFACE WATER MANAGEMENT FUND 415, THE EQUIPMENT RENTAL AND REVOLVING FUND 502, AND MAKING A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION AND BUDGET TRANSFER IN THE LIMITED TAX DEBT SERVICE FUND 215 TO PROVIDE EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY FOR THE PROCEEDS OF THE LIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION REFUNDING BONDS, 2015, TO REFUND AND PAY ALL OR A PORTION OF THE OUTSTANDING LIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS 2005A, 2005B, AND 2006, AND THE COSTS OF ISSUANCE OF THE 2015 REFUNDING BONDS Section 1. The County Council makes the following findings of fact: a supplemental appropriation in the 2015 budget year is necessary in the Airport Operation and Maintenance Fund 410 in the amount of $7,782,565, the Surface Water Management Fund 415 in the amount of $63,191, in the Equipment Rental and Revolving Fund 502 in the amount of $4,706,792, and in the Limited Tax Debt Service Fund 215 in the amount of $39,030,127, to advance refund and pay the principal of all or a portion of the 2005A Bonds, the 2005B Bonds and 2006 Bonds and to pay the costs of issuance of the Bonds.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Start taking your life more seriously and focus on getting ahead by following through with your plans. Look for the opportunities that will help you improve your qualifications, and use your knowledge to gain leverage over any competition that comes along. Your numbers are 7, 16, 21, 28, 33, 39, 47.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Take a look at your financial situation and make adjustments that will help you save for the future. A change in an important relationship should be examined before you lose something special. Tolerance and understanding are the keys. ★★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Generosity isn’t always the answer. Someone who is asking for your help is not being completely honest.

Listen and offer suggestions, but don’t pay for someone else’s mistakes. Take charge of whatever situations you face and don’t get taken advantage of. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’ll have trouble containing your feelings. Try not to let your personal problems spill over into work. You can keep the peace and smooth things over with your loved one if you offer a romantic solution that is within your means. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): There will be trouble if you can’t make up your mind or if you get into an argument. Consider what you want and show confidence in the decisions you make. Indecision will lead to a lack of control. ★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your assistance and enthusiasm will help position you for greater opportunities. A short trip will lead to talks that will give you something to look forward to. The incentives you receive will help you make up your mind and change your life. ★★★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Make changes for the right reasons. Not all the choices you are

given will be right for you. Someone may be convincing, but without proof it’s best to take a conservative approach to what is being offered. ★★ LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Emotional spending won’t lift your spirits. Instead, try to make changes that will ease your stress and introduce you to new people and places. Self-improvement and working to improve relationships should take top priority. ★★★ SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Be receptive to new ideas and different ways of doing things.

Taking a unique approach to the way you help others or run your household will bring good results. Limit how much you spend on nonessential items. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll be tempted to make changes that will affect your home and your status. Careful consideration will be necessary if you don’t want to end up having regrets. Romance will be enticing, but the outcome will be less inviting. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can’t save the world. Put a greater emphasis on your home, family and protecting what you’ve worked so hard to acquire. Avoid getting involved with questionable ventures or untrustworthy people. Don’t believe everything you hear. ★★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be insightful when it comes to money matters and vocational choices. Change is upon you, and the chance to move into a new phase of your life looks promising. Turn what you enjoy doing into a lucrative pastime. Romance is encouraged. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A secretive approach will help you bypass interference. Emotional matters will escalate if you partner up with someone who doesn’t think the same way as you. Go it alone and aim to do things your way. ★★ Universal Uclick

COMMENTARY Apple Cup matchup pits Cougars’ strength versus Huskies’ strength Keeping Falk on sidelines

in Apple Cup a no-brainer

UW’s stout pass defense looks forward to ‘fun’ challenge against WSU’s prolific passing offense.

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Praise doesn’t come much more effusive than when opposing defensive coaches are asked to evaluate Washington State’s offense.

Under fourth-year coach Mike Leach, the Cougars throw the ball a bunch, and they’ve become pretty good at it: they rank fourth nationally in touchdown passes (38), second in completion percentage (69.4), and first in total passing yards — all numbers that have helped them to an 8-3 record and a No. 20 national ranking.

So, too, have receivers Gabe Marks (1,067 yards, 14 touchdowns) and Dom Williams (950 yards, 10 touchdowns), and quarterback Luke Falk (4,622 passing yards, 36 touchdowns), though his status is uncertain after he suffered

an apparent head injury last week.

Regardless, Huskies defensive backs coach Jimmy Lake knows that his players might have to defend 60 or 70 passes

during Friday’s Apple Cup game at Husky Stadium.

Which is just fine with them.

See APPLE CUP, Page C6

ecause Washington State coach Mike Leach keeps a steadfast policy against discussing the health of his players, quarterback Luke Falk’s status for the Apple Cup remains questionable.

What nonsense. Why is the possibility Falk will suit up Friday against Washington even a question?

A week ago Saturday, Falk’s head was hit so hard it bounced on the Rose Bowl turf. Somebody who knows more about concussions than I do gave him clearance to stay in the game.

Last Saturday, after taking another blow to the head midway through the third quarter, he was removed from the field on a cart and didn’t return. To insist the second injury had no connection to the first requires a remarkable kind of stupidity.

And to think: Cougars athletic director Bill Moos told those

listening to his Spokane-area radio segment Monday that he’s hopeful Falk can play against the Huskies.

READY FOR REDEMPTION Glacier Peak using last season’s state regional loss to Cleveland as motivation

By David Krueger Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — While their conference rival was in the Tacoma Dome winning the 3A state championship last March, Brian Hill and the Glacier Peak Grizzlies basketball team couldn’t bring themselves to head to the dome to watch.

After a strong campaign that saw Glacier Peak, the No. 2 team out of District 1, reach the regional round of the state tournament with a 20-3 record, the Grizzlies were rewarded with a matchup against two-time defending state champion Cleve- INSIDE land. Glacier Peak ✓ 5 players took an early lead to watch, C5 before eventually ✓ Preseason losing, 62-52.

The loss stuck coaches polls, C5 with Hill, who didn’t make his usual trip to the Tacoma Dome to watch the state tournament, where Cleveland lost to Glacier Peak’s Wesco 3A South rival Lynnwood in the state title game.

“It took a long time to recover from losing to Cleveland,” Hill said.

“I couldn’t go down to state like I usually do. I thought we should be there.”

Glacier Peak has made it to the regionals the past five seasons and advanced to the the Tacoma Dome twice. But the 2015 game against Cleveland really hurt.

“I don’t know that I’ll ever get over that game,” Hill said. “We had a really great team and a really great group of girls. They loved each other, they played hard for each other. It wasn’t about any one particular person.

It was about a team effort. Always.

That’s what we’ve got to try to get KEVIN CLARK / THE HERALD

Dawgs, Zags tangle in Bahamas

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

The Washington men’s basketball team jumped and bounced and dunked its way past a pair of overmatched nonconference opponents last week. The Huskies scored 204 points in two games, won by margins of 33 and 37 points, and looked like the fresh, athletic bunch that coach Lorenzo Romar said they would be.

But games against Mount St. Mary’s and Pennsylvania can only reveal so much of a team’s true identity. Washington’s next venture will tell far more.

The Huskies don’t renew their annual home-and-home series with the Gonzaga Bulldogs until next season, but they will face each other on Wednesday morning in the Bahamas, on Paradise Island, in the first round of the Battle 4 Atlantis tournament.

Each team is guaranteed three games. The Huskies will face either Texas or Texas A&M in the second round, in addition to one more game against one of the four other teams in the field — Connecticut, Michigan, Charlotte or Syracuse.

But the highlight for many in-state basketball fans will be Wednesday’s game against No. 10 Gonzaga. The teams haven’t met since the 2006-07 season, after which the annual series was discontinued.

Speculation varied about why the teams stopped playing each other. It has been reported that it was Gonzaga coach Mark Few who turned in former Huskies assistant Cameron Dollar for violating NCAA rules while recruiting Josh Heytvelt, who wound up signing with Gonzaga. Many believe

TODAY’S GAME

Washington vs. Gonzaga, 9 a.m.

that tiff, and a corresponding deterioration of the relationship between the programs, led to UW’s decision to halt the series.

A proposal by UW in October 2009 to resume the series as an annual game at KeyArena gained no traction after Few said publicly that the odds of Gonzaga agreeing to such an arrangement were “about the same as Bigfoot having my baby.”

The programs apparently reconciled, reaching an agreement last year to play a four-year, home-and-home series beginning in 2016-17.

It’s what local hoops fans have wanted to see for nearly a decade. On Wednesday, they can see the precursor.

“If you’re a fan of the state of Washington basketball situation, it’s kind of a bonus,” Romar said. “Maybe we get to play a little early before we start it, but for me, it kind of feels the same way. We play in a field like this, you don’t know who you’re going to play. We knew we were going to play a good opponent, and it happens to be a good one in Gonzaga, so I’m not upset.”

Impressive as they’ve been in winning their first three games, the young Huskies could probably use the extra year to

Associated Press PULLMAN — Conor Clifford led a balanced Washington State offense with 18 points as the Cougars rolled to a 74-57 win over Cal State-Los Angeles on Tuesday night.

Que Johnson added 15 points for the Cougars (3-0) at Beasley Coliseum. WSU played without leading scorer and rebounder Josh Hawkinson, who sat out with a groin injury.

Joshua Munzon led the Golden Eagles (0-5), an NCAA Division II team, with 24 points. Munzon sank 11 of 13 shots from the field.

The Eagles shot 42.3 percent from the field, compared to 53.8 percent for Washington State.

four games in five nights so obviously we were a little tired. But it was good to see that we came out every night and competed, and are paying the price to win.

Even though we didn’t get the result we wanted, I thought we played a solid few games.”

Constantine has generally been pleased with the consistency of the effort put forth by his team. Last Wednesday’s 4-3 loss at Lethbridge was the lone exception on the road trip. The games in which Everett’s effort isn’t where it needs to be generally depends on the team’s health, Constantine said.

Everett has been without captain Dawson Leedahl for several games this season including the Lethbridge game. Key defensemen Cole MacDonald (injury) and Noah Juulsen (NHL training camp) also missed several games early in the season.

“When we dress our healthy lineup we’ve been pretty steady, but we would be a team that’s vulnerable to injuries at key

prepare for their reunion with their nationally-ranked cross-state rivals. Gonzaga remains a West Coast Conference power, and the Bulldogs are coming off an Elite 8 appearance.

They return one of the NCAA’s most imposing frontcourts — preseason AllAmerican forward Kyle Wiltjer and 7-foot-1 center Przemek Karnowski start, with 6-11 sophomore Domantas Sabonis coming off the bench — though their starting backcourt is less seasoned.

“We have to go out and play Husky basketball,” Romar said. “Obviously, they’re huge.

Their front line is huge. Probably the biggest front line in the country, one of the best front lines in the country. We feel we have good quickness and some guys that aren’t going to back down.”

UW guard Dejounte Murray, a freshman who was recruited by Gonzaga, said he’s glad to see the teams play each other again.

“Growing up, I used to watch this game,” Murray said, “and I know how big the rivalry is. So it’s just a good feeling that I’m going to be playing in the game, so I’m looking forward to it.”

At a press conference Tuesday in the Bahamas, senior guard Andrew Andrews said he views Gonzaga as “another opponent. Although it is Gonzaga — I know it’s a big rivalry — if you look at it as bigger than what it is, we’ll kind of get carried away and come out not playing how we’re supposed to play. So I think if we just look at it as a regular game, just another opponent in the way, then we’ll come out with our same focus, try to prepare the best and play a good game.”

positions,” Constantine said.

“I’m not sure that we’re deep enough to be able to conquer that on a regular basis.”

So far, so good. All 24 players fully participated in Tuesday’s practice, including Dario Winkler (illness) and Brian King (lower body injury), who were each listed as day-to-day on the WHL’s weekly injury report released Tuesday. Winkler and King both were scratched for the game at Calgary.

Wednesday the Tips take on the Tri-City Americans beginning at 7 p.m. at Xfinity Arena.

The homestand concludes with a 7:35 p.m. Black Friday game against Moose Jaw, and Everett wraps up the weekend Sunday at 5 p.m. at Spokane.

Entering Tuesday’s game against Moose Jaw, the Americans (9-13-1-0, 19 points) are last in the five-team U.S. Division, but knocked off then-Western-Conference-leading Victoria 6-5 in overtime Saturday. Tri-City has been beset by numerous injuries this season, but recently got star defenseman Brandon Carlo back.

Parker Bowles (11 goals, 17 assists), Jordan Topping (nine

goals, 10 assists) and Beau McCue (eight goals, nine assists) are the top scorers for the Americans.

Defensemen Parker Wotherspoon (three goals, 13 assists) and Juuso Valimaki (three goals, 12 assists), and forwards Vladislav Lukin (seven goals, seven assists) and Michael Rasmussen (six goals, eight assists) are also key contributors.

Evan Sarthou (8-12-1-0, 3.66 goals-against average, .878 save percentage) has played 22 games in net for the Americans.

The Silvertips have weathered tough stretches before, including a stint that included four loses in five games during the latter part of October. The trick now is to not let the three-game skid extend longer.

“One of the secrets to having a decent record at the end of the day — certainly like last year, winning the (division) title — you just can’t have a prolonged down period that just goes on and on and on,” Constantine said. “Your ability to have a little bit of something negative happen and get right back into the next game and get focused on the next event — those are important events during the course of a season.”

Steelers struggle on West Coast

By Will Graves Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — David DeCastro majored in management sciences and engineering at Stanford, which according to the school’s website prepares students “to plan, design and implement complex economic and technological management systems.”

It sounds complicated. And the Pittsburgh Steelers guard will politely tell you it was if asked. The dynamics around his team’s struggles when heading out to the West Coast, however, are far simpler.

It’s just different when you go across the country. DeCastro dealt with it when the Cardinal would occasionally fly east and he’s dealt with it when the Steelers head in the other direction, with uneven at best results. Pittsburgh is 5-9 in games in the Mountain and Pacific time zones since 2005 and hasn’t won in Seattle — where the Steelers (6-4) visit on Sunday — since 1983, a good seven years before DeCastro was born.

“It’s hard,” DeCastro said. “I’m not going to lie and say it isn’t.”

Regardless of the quality of opponent.

Pittsburgh’s losses out west of Kansas City over the last decade include a pair of pratfalls against the Raiders in 2012 and 2013, and an overtime defeat in the playoffs against the Denver Broncos four years ago when Tim Tebow — yes, that Tim Tebow — stunned them on the first play of the extra period.

While the Steelers picked up a rare win in California last month at San Diego, it took a last-second lunge across the goal line by Le’Veon Bell in a stadium filled with so many Terrible Towels it may as well have been Heinz Field West.

Now the Steelers have to face the two-time defending NFC champions, who just happen to have one of the best home-field advantages in all of sports. No pressure or anything.

Besides, it’s no different than what the West Coast teams face when they travel east. Half of Pittsburgh’s six victories came in early afternoon home games against Oakland, Arizona and San Francisco.

“We have to be on point with what we’re doing and not focus on the flight, the time change and all the other stuff,” guard Ramon Foster said. “We have to be sharp. No false starts. No mental mistakes.”

Something Pittsburgh has often been unable to avoid the closer it gets to the Pacific Ocean. The 2013 loss to the Raiders, who won only four games all year, included a 93-yard sprint by Oakland quarterback Terrelle Pryor on the first offensive snap. A 2006 defeat in San Diego by the defending Super Bowl champion Steelers included a pair of second-half interceptions by quarterback Ben Roethlisberger the Chargers turned into points.

While coach Mike Tomlin is well aware of the way Seattle’s “12th Man” tries to upset the opponent’s timing, he’s also not much for excuses.

“If we are playing well, if we minimize negativity, it will aid our efforts in terms of making that a variable that’s less significant than it can be,” Tomlin said.

At least the Steelers will make the 2,500-mile trip relatively healthy.

Roethlisberger’s sprained left foot appears to be healing nicely coming off a bye week, though Tomlin cautioned labeling any player as 100 percent heading into Thanksgiving as “a slippery slope.”

Yet Tomlin remains optimistic with his team in the mix for a postseason berth even with Roethlisberger missing a handful of starts, and Bell, left tackle Kelvin Beachum and center Maurkice Pouncey all out with injuries.

Pittsburgh has the top wild-card spot with six weeks to go and chasing down the suddenly catchable Bengals for first place no longer seems out of the question.

“We are in the thick of things,” Tomlin said. “We understand that.

We are not what we desire to be. We could be better. We could be worse.

The reality is we know enough to know that we need to be focused on the task at hand. We don’t have to look outside the stadiums.”

RICHARD SHOTWELL / INVISIONASSOCIATED PRESS

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and singer Ciara pose for photographers at the ESPY Awards in July in Los Angeles.

‘Nothing changed’ Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who signed a contract that guarantees him $61 million, says money has not changed him.

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — Say you were earning $60,000 annually per year. Then you get a raise … to more than $5.5 million, guaranteed.

Might that change you a bit?

That is the real-world equivalent to what’s happened to Russell Wilson over the last 10 months.

At the end of the 2014 season the Seahawks’ trigger man was sports’ biggest bargain: A twotime Super Bowl quarterback and 2013 NFL champion making $662,000 in base salary on his rookie contract as a third-round draft choice. Then hours before Seattle’s training camp began July 31, Wilson signed an $87.6 million extension that includes $61 million guaranteed. That guarantee is 92 times more than his base pay was last year.

His coach thinks that, um, raise has inevitably changed the dynamics between Seattle’s leader and his teammates.

“I think when guys sign their contracts, and it’s their time, it’s recognized by the players around them as well that they just got paid,” Carroll said Monday, obviously interested in the issue. “And how they handle that and how they deal with it, the players are going to watch them and they see them. Not that they’re trying to find out something wrong, but the dynamics shift.

“So there’s a responsibility on both ends of that: For the player who just got paid to understand, OK, you’ve done something that a lot of other guys wish they could do, too; and then for the players that haven’t had their opportunity, to respect the guy and his good opportunity and good fortune that came his way.

So there’s a lot to that.

“And you don’t always know how that’s going to work out.”

Wilson’s last year has not just included his contract. It’s had his high-profile relationship with singer Ciara — she’s been with him after practices and games, on his weekly Tuesday visits to Seattle Children’s hospital, plus in social-media postings of photos with them as Batman and Catwoman at Halloween then on a beach in Mexico during the Seahawks’ recent bye week.

It has also included Wilson at the White House multiple times as a guest of President Barack Obama. Wilson has the highest national profile for a Seattle athlete since at least Ken Griffey Jr. in the 1990s, if not ever.

Wilson’s 2015 has thus had more scrutiny. It started with the

interception he threw at the goal line at the end of Super Bowl 49 that cost Seattle its second consecutive title. It intensified last week when offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said Wilson needed to “give guys a chance” on some throws. That was after Wilson’s 14-for-32 passing night in the loss to Arizona that essentially ended the Seahawks’ chance for a third straight NFC West championship.

Wilson responded last weekend with his most accurate passing of his career: 24-for29 with three touchdowns as Seattle’s offense rolled up 500 total yards for just the third time under Carroll in the 29-13 win over San Francisco. It got the Seahawks to 5-5 and one game out of a wild-card playoff spot entering Sunday’s next test at home against Pittsburgh (6-4).

“I ignore the noise,” Wilson said.

He must. He says nothing’s different this year.

“I don’t think it’s changed at all,” he said. “I think that, ultimately, it comes down to how you prepare. Like I always say, the separation is in the preparation. It comes down to getting here early, loving your teammates in terms of getting ready and having fun getting prepared.”

Carroll speaks from his and general manager John Schneider’s recent experiences of giving huge raises to the Seahawks’ core players such as Kam Chancellor, Earl Thomas, Richard Sherman, Cliff Avril, Bobby Wagner and Michael Bennett.

“There’s a lot of guys — I know in baseball — that get paid hitting .320 and then they never see .300 again. It happens. So hopefully our guys can make it

through it,” Carroll said. “I think it does take a lot of support, and direction, and counseling to deal with that well. Because the last thing we want to do is have a guy get a big contract and then he can’t play very well anymore.”

Wilson, a former minor-league baseball second baseman, isn’t exactly hitting below .200 in a football sense since he signed his extension. Despite being sacked more than any other NFL quarterback, he has a completion rate of 67.5 percent this season, highest of his career. He’s coming off his first game with three touchdown passes since last January’s divisional-playoff win over Carolina.

Carroll said how Sherman responded last year in the months after he went from $555,000 in 2013 to a signing a four-year, $56 million extension with $40 million guaranteed is exactly how a coach hopes a star handles such a windfall.

Sherman became an All-Pro cornerback for the third consecutive season.

“When Richard did his deal and then came back and had an incredible year that same year, I recognized his focus and his attention to detail,” Carroll said, meaning recognized it in front of the entire team. “I used to talk about how he was practicing. He’d created habits in that year that surpassed the habits that had gotten him to that point.

And he continues to do that now.

“I think that’s a great mark of a guy recognizing the good things that have happened and then capitalizing on that opportunity by really going for it and applying himself in the best way. As opposed to, ‘OK, I made it,’ and sitting back and going otherwise.

“We’ve had very good

response from our guys. If you do a good job of choosing the players that you reward, and I think that’s very important. How are they going to handle it? Will they do well with it? Then you can have some good fortune with it.”

Wilson said Carroll talked to him “a little bit” after he signed his contract about the need to do more in front of his teammates.

“But we didn’t really focus on it,” Wilson said.

“You’ve worked so hard your whole life, sometimes we forget that. You work your whole life to get an opportunity, to seize that opportunity, to make it in the National Football League or whatever profession it may be. If you’re trying to be the CEO of a business or a doctor, or a teacher, or whatever it may be, to accomplish that point, there’s still more to go.

“I know my focus is I want to do the best that I can, continue to study, continue to learn as much as I can, and just grasp that sense of knowledge as much as I can.”

So, no, Wilson doesn’t feel any additional responsibility since signing one of the largest contracts in the NFL. “I don’t think any more than what it’s been in the past,” Wilson said. “I think that ultimately, I always look at it, even since my rookie year, I’ve always looked at it as an amazing opportunity to step up and lead and encourage and win games. ... I try to lead in the same way, try to be clutch when I need to be and just try to put us in a great position to win every week.”

Really? Getting guaranteed 92 times more money hasn’t changed Russell Wilson in any way?

“No,” he said flatly and with a straight face.

“Nothing changed.”

Extra points As they awaited word from a specialist in Philadelphia on Marshawn Lynch’s visit there Tuesday for his abdominal injury, the Seahawks added running-back depth. They re-signed Bryce Brown. Seattle had released the former Eagle and Bill last weekend after he’d been inactive for two games since joining the team midseason. ... The Seahawks also resigned often-shuttled wide receiver B.J. Daniels from the practice squad. ... Special-teams linebacker Nick Moody went on injured reserve after getting hurt during last weekend’s game on a punt. ... The Seahawks released defensive tackle A.J. Daniels, one week after signing the part-time Uber driver off waivers from Miami. ... The team put OT Terry Poole on its practice squad/injured-reserve list and signed running back DuJuan Harris and wide receiver Tyler Slavin to the practice squad.

GM Dipoto isn’t done overhauling M’s roster

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Say this for new Seattle Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto: He promised a busy off-season, and he wasn’t kidding.

The calendar hasn’t yet hit Thanksgiving and, already, the Mariners have added 11 players to their 40-man roster through trades, signings and waiver claims.

And they’re not done.

“We’d like to get deeper in terms of our pitching,” Dipoto said. “That is likely to happen at this point in addressing bullpen needs. As we get into the month of December, we’ll determine whether that’s going to be via trade or free agency.”

On Monday, in discussing the signing of free-agent catcher Chris Iannetta, Dipoto cited the ongoing efforts to retain free-agent pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma as the “obvious” focus.

But Dipoto said the Nov. 5 trade that netted right-hander Nathan Karns from Tampa Bay eased the urgency in addressing the rotation and seemed to suggest the bullpen as a rising priority.

That unit will already have a new look.

The Mariners acquired veteran Joaquin Benoit, lefty C.J. Riefenhauser and righty Anthony Bass in various trades while dispatching Tom Wilhelmsen and Danny Farquhar.

Further, the club jettisoned Logan Kensing and JC Ramirez off their 40-man roster.

Since Wilhelmsen ended the season as the Mariners’ closer, the question arises: Does Dipoto believe he has a replacement on the current roster? He hedged in responding.

“Those are confidence roles,” he said, “and we’ll see where that goes.

Carson Smith is on our roster and had some small level of experience in pitching the ninth inning. He had an outstanding year as a set-up man.

“Joaquin Benoit has had closing experience in the past on two different occasions and has done an excellent job when been asked to do that. He’s also been an excellent setup man.

“Between the two, I feel like we do have options in-house and there is a

The Mariners are expected to re-sign free-agent starting pitcher Hisashi Iwakuma because other teams are expected to shy away from topping Seattle’s offer and surrendering a high draft pick.

lot of off-season yet to go. So it’s TBD on who will pitch the ninth inning on opening day.”

Regarding Iwakuma, the general view within the industry remains unchanged: the Mariners will eventually reach a deal because competitors will shy away from topping their bid and surrendering a high draft pick.

Even so, several clubs have been linked in possible interest, including the Tigers, Yankees, Dodgers and Giants.

One top official from a rival club said: “Iwakuma could probably get three years on the open market at $40-45 million. I hear the Mariners only want to go two years.

“If they stick to two years, another

team might top a two-year offer and give up the draft pick. Maybe. Maybe not. But I think that’s the only way they lose him.”

Dipoto appears willing to let the situation play out a while longer.

“Part of the appeal of acquiring Nate Karns so early in the offseason,” he said, “is that among Taijuan Walker and James Paxton and Nate Karns and (Roenis) Elias and (Vidal) Nuno, it gave us a modicum of depth behind Felix (Hernandez) that we didn’t have to panic.

“We knew we could go out there and throw innings. Now all we need to do is focus on guys who get a little bit closer to the top of the rotation.

Obviously, (with) Kuma, we’d love to have him back.

Iannetta’s deal with M’s contains performance bonuses

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — More details surfaced Tuesday on free-agent catcher Chris Iannetta’s contract with the Seattle Mariners, which provides the opportunity for him to earn far more than his one-year guarantee for $4.25 million.

The deal includes $1.75 million in performance bonuses along with a club option for $4.25 million in 2017.

The option can vest into a guaranteed year at $6 million based on the number of games that Iannetta starts in 2016.

Rule 5 risk Triple-A Tacoma outfielder Jabari Blash ranks among the top candidates for selection in the upcoming Rule 5 Draft, according to Baseball America.

The Mariners chose to expose Blash to the Dec. 10 draft when they didn’t add him to their 40-man roster prior to last Friday’s deadline.

Blash, 26, batted .271 last year in 116 games at Double-A Jackson (60) and Tacoma (56) with 32 home runs and 81 RBI. He was available, but went unselected, in last year’s draft.

“Blash doesn’t run as well as he did a few years ago,” Baseball America reported, “but he has prototypical right field tools and now he has upper-level minor league production as well.”

Players are eligible for the Rule 5 Draft if not placed on a club’s 40-man roster after four or five pro seasons. (Four years for players 19 or older when they signed their first contract; five years for those who were younger.)

Dream School Robinson Cano’s RC22 Foundation opened its first Dream School — a Montessori School — on Tuesday in his hometown: San Pedro de Macoris, Dominican Republic.

The school will serve 100 youth, ranging in age from three to eight, and offer holistic community and employment training programs for residents.

The RC22 Foundation seeks to “expand opportunities for improved outcomes in the areas of youth development and community healthcare.”

Ex-M alert Former Mariners outfielder Eric Thames, 29, was picked as the Most Valuable Player in the Korean Baseball Organization after batting .381 with 47 home runs and 140 RBI in 142 games for the NC Dinos.

Thames, who now plays first base, also had 40 steals in becoming the first 40-40 (home runs/stolen bases) player in KBO history.

Further, he won the slash triple crown (batting average/on-base percentage/slugging percentage) at .381/.497/.790.

The Mariners acquired Thames from Toronto in a June 30, 2012 trade for pitcher Steve Delabar. Thames batted .220 in 40 games over the remainder of the season with six homers and 14 RBI. Thames batted .295 in 57 games for Triple-A Tacoma in 2013 with seven homers and 33 RBI before a June 30 trade sent him to Baltimore for utilityman Ty Kelly.

Looking back It was 31 years ago Tuesday — Nov. 24, 1984 — that first baseman Alvin Davis became the first Mariners player to win a BBWAA award when selected as the American League Rookie of the Year.

Davis garnered 25 of the 28 first-place votes.

His teammate, left-handed pitcher Mark Langston, got the other three firstplace votes and finished second.

The 1984 AL rookie class also included Minnesota outfielder Kirby Puckett (who finished third) and Boston right-hander Roger Clemens (who finished sixth).

Rockies’ Reyes pleads not guilty to allegations of abusing wife Associated Press WAILUKU, Hawaii — Colorado Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes is pleading not guilty to allegations of abusing his wife at a Hawaii resort.

Maui police arrested Reyes after an argument Oct. 31 with his wife that allegedly turned physical at the Four Seasons Resort.

Reyes didn't attend his arraignment Tuesday on Maui. According to court records, defense attorney David Sereno entered the not guilty plea on Reyes' behalf to a charge of abuse of a family or household member.

According to a recording of the 911 call released by police, a hotel

security guard reported that the woman had injuries to her left leg and scratches on her neck.

Reyes was arrested and then released after posting $1,000 bail.

Braves sign right-hander Carpenter ATLANTA — Right-hander David Carpenter has agreed to a minor league contract with the Atlanta Braves.

The 30-year-old spent the 2013-14 seasons in Atlanta’s bullpen, going 4-1 with a 1.78 ERA in his first season, and had a 4.01 ERA in 30 appearances this year with the New York Yankees and Washington Nationals.

Atlanta said it also had agreed to minor league deal with right-handers Chris Volstad and Madison Younginer; catchers Willians Astudillo, Matt Kennelly, Ryan Lavarnway and Braeden

Schlehuber; infielders Reid Brignac and Chase d’Arnaud; and outfielder Matt Tuiasosopo.

Marlins fire TV analyst Hutton MIAMI — The Miami Marlins have fired Tommy Hutton, their TV analyst for 19 years.

The team said it decided to go in a different direction and didn’t elaborate on its decision.

Hutton has spent 51 years in professional baseball. He played in the majors from 1966 to 1981.

Chisox acquire Kahnle from Rockies CHICAGO — The Chicago White Sox have right-hander Tommy Kahnle from the Colorado Rockies for minor league pitcher Yency Almonte. The 26-year-old Kahnle is 2-2 with a 4.41 ERA in 90 relief appearances over two seasons with the Rockies.

Arlington guard Gracie Castaneda shot 59 percent from 3-point range last season as she helped lead the Eagles to the Class 3A state tournament.

Gracie Castaneda Arlington | Guard

Castaneda, a senior and a three-year starter, was a first-team All-Wesco 3A North selection last season and was named to the All3A State Tournament second team.

Castaneda shot 55 percent from the field and 52 percent from 3-point range as a junior and is the leadingreturning scorer for the Eagles, who have made it to the state tournament the past three seasons.

Castaneda and fellow threeyear starter Jayla Russ are being counted on to lead the Eagles this season as they try to continue that run of success.

“Gracie and Jayla have been a huge part of the success we’ve had over the past three seasons,” Arlington coach Joe Marsh said. “… As anybody who knows her will tell you, Gracie is a unique individual. She has this great, goofy personality, but when she steps on the court, she is one of the most intense competitors I’ve ever had the pleasure of coaching. I also love her versatility. She usually defends the opposing team’s best offensive player and is arguably our best allaround offensive player.”

Lynnwood’s Mikayla Pivec averaged 20.4 points and 12.4 rebounds per game last season.

Jordyn Edwards

Mikayla Pivec

Edwards, a senior, was one of the top defenders in Wesco 3A a year ago, averaging 3.6 steals per game to go along with 10.1 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.8 assists.

She was a first-team allconference selection and, along with teammate Mikayla Pivec, was named to The Herald’s AllArea team. The Royals made it to the regional round of the state tournament when Edwards was a freshman and followed that up with a third-place finish at the 4A tournament in 2014 and a 3A state championship last season.

She has signed to play at Colorado State next season.

Pivec, a senior, isn’t just the best player in Washington state, she is one of the best in the country. The 2014-15 Gatorade Washington Girls Player of the Year, who recently signed with Oregon State, is ranked as the No. 24 recruit in the nation

by ESPNW. All she did last season was average 20.4 points, 12.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 3.5 steals per game to help lead the Royals to their first state championship. She had one of her best games of the season in the Class 3A state championship, scoring 31 points and grabbing 17 rebounds in the Royals’ 54-42 victory over Cleveland.

I couldn’t be prouder of Jordyn and Mikayla. ... It’s difficult to speak about them individually because they share the same DNA. They strive for excellence in all their endeavors while still being very humble.

GENNA MARTIN/THE HERALD

Madeline Smith (30) averaged 15.2 points per game for Snohomish last season.

Madeline Smith Snohomish | Forward Smith, a senior, averaged 15.2 points and 10.1 rebounds per game as a junior, helping lead the Panthers to the Class 4A District 1 championship with a win over topseeded Lake Stevens.

Smith, who has signed to play at Montana State, shot 57 percent from the field and averaged two blocks per game last season. She has led Snohomish in scoring and rebounding the past three seasons.

In Smith and fellow senior Madison Pollock, who has signed to play next season at the University of San Diego, the Panthers have two of the top players in the area.

“Madeline had several games last year where we were only able to take her out for two to three minutes or less,” Snohomish coach Ken Roberts said. “… Madeline makes everybody on our team better. Other teams have to focus on her, which leaves other players open. Madeline is not your typical post/forward. She was our best free-throw shooter as far as percentage last season and she often helps bring the ball up against pressure.”

Daylee Hanson King’s | Guard

Hanson, a senior, is a two-year captain for King’s and helped lead the Knights to the Class 1A state championship last season. A University of Idaho recruit, Hanson has been a starter since her freshman year and averaged 11.8 points, 2.5 assists and 3.5 steals per game last season.

Cascade Conference selection last season, will be taking over the point-guard duties from her sister Savanna, who graduated last season and now plays at Santa Clara University. “(Daylee) is one of the most competitive athletes that I’ve ever coached in any sport,” King’s head coach Dan Taylor. said “I knew she would be a

special player when she hit a contested left-handed layin as a freshmen in the state quarterfinals at the buzzer to beat the defending state champs and put us in the semifinals. Her teammates love her because she is one of their biggest cheerleaders and provides great leadership spiritually on and off the court.”

Grizzlies: Team returns all but two players from last year From Page C1

back to this year. I thought we were a championship team. We know what it takes to be at that level and it’s my job to get us back there.”

The Grizzlies return all but two players from last year’s squad: Sadie Mensing and Kianna Garner. The pair were key to last year’s success for Glacier Peak but several returners — including senior Natalie Rasmussen and juniors Samantha Fatkin, Paisley Johnson and Kayla Watkins — have high hopes for this season.

“We’re just picking up where we left off last year,” Rasmussen said. “We have a little chip on our shoulder. We’ve been waiting for (the season to start) all year, ever since the season ended last year.

We’ve been counting down the days until we get another shot.”

Added Fatkin: “It was a really hard game to get over. But I think it’s a good experience and we’re not going to let it happen again.”

The Glacier Peak players say they’ve noticed a change in Hill this season. There’s a greater sense of urgency from the head Grizzly.

“I definitely see a difference with how he’s acted just in these past couple of days, with how focused he is in practice,” Johnson said. “Last year, he was focused but it was more relaxed. But now, it’s not like we have a lot on the line but he’s like, ‘It’s time.’”

Hill admits he expects a lot from this team.

“I tell them all the time, ‘I’m the hardest person to please,’ because if you’re playing offense

We have a little chip on our shoulder. ... We’ve been counting down the days until we get another shot.

and you score, than I’ll be yelling at the defense,” Hill said with a laugh. “If you’re on offense and you don’t score, I’ll be yelling at the offense because the defense is doing a great job. I’m never happy. There’s always something to fix.”

The early-season practices have Glacier Peak working hard, but the Grizzlies don’t mind.

“I think from that game, practice is harder now,” Watkins said.

“We’re pushing harder in practice now. We’re coming back, not as a new team, but as one that works

harder. Our practices right now are really intense.”

“We hold a high standard for everybody on the team,” Johnson said. “Everybody should be working hard. Every practice has to be good.”

Hill is looking to Rasmussen, one of four seniors on the roster, as well as Fatkin, Johnson and Watkins — a 6-foot-1 post — to lead the Grizzlies this season.

“Looking at the nucleus of what Glacier Peak has, they have a very good group of kids,” Lynnwood coach Everett Edwards said. “And

they’re still young. They have Rasmussen, who’s a senior. They have a good group of juniors with Samantha Fatkin, Paisley Johnson and Kayla Watkins. They are a very competitive group of kids who are very well-coached. I can say that they are our toughest rival at this point in Wesco.”

Getting to the state quarterfinals at the Tacoma Dome won’t be easy for the Grizzlies.

In fact, regionals is not a guarantee. Glacier Peak plays in the same conference as Lynnwood, and in a district tournament that

features several strong 3A teams, including Arlington, EdmondsWoodway, Shorewood, Stanwood and Ferndale.

“We have a great league,” Hill said. “All of these teams push us and hopefully we’ll push them.

Our league is tough. Just to make it to regionals again is a big accomplishment.”

However, reaching the regionals is not the Grizzlies’ goal.

“We’ve been to regionals five times in a row and we’ve been to Tacoma twice. For as good as our teams have been we don’t have a lot to show for it,” Hill said.

“We’ve got two district titles and a couple league titles and that’s really about it. I would love to put a glass trophy in the case. A state trophy of some sort would be great.

“The ultimate goal is to get something that the girls can come back 20 years later and say, ‘Hey! I helped put that in there.’”

Apple Cup From Page C1

“They’re excited,” Lake said Tuesday. “From a DB perspective, we’d definitely rather play an offense like this than play an Air Force or a Georgia Tech, that’s for sure.

That’s an unbelievable challenge there, those two teams.

But from a DB perspective, this is fun. It’s challenging.”

And it should be fun for anyone who watches, too, because this could be one of the most competitive offense-versus-defense matchups in the Pac-12 this season — few teams pass the ball as often and as well as the Cougars, and few teams defend the pass as well as the Huskies.

Washington ranks second in the Pac-12 in pass defense efficiency rating, second in completion percentage allowed and second in passing yards allowed per game, and the Huskies have allowed fewer touchdown passes (eight total) than any conference team.

Starting a secondary that included Budda Baker and Kevin King at safety, and Sidney Jones and converted receiver John Ross III at cornerback, the Huskies held WSU scoreless for 50 minutes in last season’s 31-13 victory in sub-freezing Pullman temperatures.

It was coach Chris Petersen’s first Apple Cup, and it was never close in the second half. UW led 31-0 in the fourth quarter. Huskies coaches credited the team’s pass rush, which sacked Falk four times and otherwise hurried him.

That component will be key again on Friday. WSU has allowed more sacks (35) than all but nine FBS teams, though the Cougars have also attempted more passes than any team in the country. They also might again play without starting left tackle Joe Dahl, who has missed WSU’s past three games with an apparent injury. Starting center Riley Sorenson missed last week’s game against Colorado, and his status for Friday is also uncertain.

The Huskies could be aided by the return of sophomore nose tackle Elijah Qualls, who has missed the team’s past three games with an ankle injury.

UW defensive line coach Jeff Choate, a former assistant under Leach at WSU, said Tuesday that Qualls has been practicing, “and I think you’re going to see him in the game.”

He also hopes to see an effort similar to last season’s game against WSUs wide splits on the offensive line.

“When they’re in their vertical pass sets, you’ve got to resist the temptation to do a whole lot of dancing,” Choate said. “I tell our guys all the time, ‘don’t cha-cha.’ We’ve just got to get into our man and hit our fit. Don’t worry about being fancy in pass rush. It’s just about collapsing the pocket and doing a good job of keeping it dirty.”

And Lake said nothing changes for UW’s defense if Falk can’t play and is replaced by backup Peyton Bender, a redshirt freshman who has appeared in four games this season. He threw for 133 yards, a touchdown and an interception in place of Falk last week.

“If Falk plays, he’s going to try to throw for a billion (yards),” Lake said. “If he doesn’t, we’re fully expecting this other guy, Bender, to come in there and just pick up where the last quarterback left off. It’s a really great scheme. They do an awesome job of coaching those guys. It’s going to be a big challenge.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL | Notebook

WSU’s Falk a finalist for Burlsworth Trophy Associated Press Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield, Penn State defensive end Cal Nassib and Washington State quarterback Luke Falk are the finalists for the Burlsworth Trophy, given to the most outstanding college football player to begin his career as a walk-on.

Mayfield walked on at Texas Tech before transferring to Oklahoma and is now a Heisman Trophy contender for the fifth-ranked Sooners.

Nassib leads the nation in sacks (15.5) in his first season as a starter.

Falk leads the nation with 4,266 passing yards.

The Burlsworth Trophy honors the late Brandon Burlsworth, a walk-on at Arkansas who became a threeyear starting offensive lineman. He was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts in 1999, but was killed in a car accident 11 days later.

A film about Burlsworth called “Greater” will be released Jan. 22.

suffered a week apart are much more likely to damage a brain than concussions suffered, say, a decade apart.

Again, I don’t have the medical credentials to identify Falk as a recent concussion victim. All I know is what I watched on TV: The back side of his skull bouncing on the ground on Nov. 14, and his valiant thumbs-up gesture as he was carted off the field on Nov. 21.

Concussion-protocol guidelines now are implemented for every sport, at every level. This represents progress. Not so long ago, when a woozy football player needed assistance to the sideline, broadcasters referred to the injury as “getting a bell rung.” No big deal. The bellringing brought over a trainer who held three fingers up and asked the athlete to identify how many fingers he saw. If he saw three, he was good to go.

This explains why thousands of football players — guys with the ability to perform back flips when they were 20 years old — are unable to remember why they’ve stumbled into the kitchen at the age of 50.

So, yes, I’m a proponent of concussion-protocol guidelines. I’m just more of a proponent of common sense. Putting Luke Falk in the most

vulnerable football position there is Friday mocks any notion of common sense.

Beyond the sheer satisfaction of beating the Huskies, the short-term benefits of allowing Falk to participate in the Apple Cup hinge on a better chance of a 9-3 team traveling to the Foster Farms Bowl instead of an 8-4 team traveling to the Sun Bowl.

Or maybe it’s the other way around. Maybe the Sun Bowl is the

will transition into a senior associate director of athletics position at the school after nearly 23 years of leading the Black Bears.

The university announced a national search for a head football coach will start immediately.

Cosgrove, named Maine’s head coach on Feb. 22, 1993, has the most wins (129135) in the history of the football program.

Under Cosgrove’s leadership, the team has won three conference championships and made five NCAA postseason appearances.

After graduating from Maine in 1978, Cosgrove spent two years as a graduate assistant with the Black Bears. Following a two-year stint at Boston College, he returned to UMaine in 1987.

intended destination, and the Foster Farms Bowl is Plan B. In any case, the urgent stakes for the Cougars are not self-evident.

And the long-term liabilities of allowing Falk to participate in the Apple Cup? The consequences are serious.

Anchored by linebackers hardwired to collide with a purpose, the Huskies defense is the real deal. If Falk is sacked, there’s a chance he endures another blow to the head, for the third time in three weeks.

A redshirt sophomore primed to set career passing records in the Pac-12 Conference — heck, he might even set NCAA career passing records — Falk has potential that’s off the charts.

If I’m the head coach, I’m not taking the risk. I’m not following dubious concussion-protocol guidelines.

I’m trusting quarterback Peyton Bender, a redshirt freshman from Florida who was widely recruited and has appeared nonplussed when called upon to relieve Falk, can operate his team’s go-for-thegusto offense with efficiency, if not flair.

Seems like a simple conclusion, doesn’t it? The quarterback who has been knocked into Palookaville twice in two weeks stays on the sideline, and his capable backup takes the reins in a game that doesn’t exactly scream “must win.”

This is not brain surgery.

Yet.

A love song to the

Pacific Northwest New cookbook ‘Sea and Smoke’ puts a spotlight on Lummi Island’s The Willows Inn and acclaimed chef Blaine Wetzel

By Erin Pride

A

Special to The Herald

s much as I’d like to say that “Sea and Smoke: Flavors from the Untamed Pacific Northwest,” the new cookbook on The Willows Inn and head chef Blaine Wetzel, gripped me from the start, I can’t, because it didn’t. The book sat on my shelf unopened for several weeks before I really took a look.

“All right. What do you have to offer?”

I asked.

No answer.

I dreaded the possibility that not only would I not like the book, but that this dislike would take on a personal note.

This is, after all, a book inspired by a love of the Northwest, more specifically an area less than 20 miles from my home.

Afraid of disappointment, pretension and unapproachability, I worried this was an aspirational cookbook reserved for those few fortunate enough to have eaten at The Willows Inn on Lummi Island. I was also biased by the ethereal quality of another cookbook I’d seen: “Noma: Time and Place in Nordic Cuisine.”

Wetzel came to Lummi from Noma, a Copenhagen restaurant that is considered one of the best in the world, and I associated what little I knew of Noma’s food style to that of Wetzel’s. This isn’t the first time I’ve come with assumptions to a cookbook or chef, but this is certainly the most wrong I’ve been. “(Blaine) started as a fry cook in a steakhouse in a Wal-Mart parking lot,” said Joe Ray, co-author of “Sea and Smoke.” “He worked his way through every station. Then moved to a nicer restaurant and then a nicer one. And yes, he eventually moved to Noma, but he didn’t want to just re-create Noma. You want to have your own recipes, your own ways.”

I recently sat down with Ray to talk

about his experience writing “Sea and Smoke.” More than anything I drew from what he said as we sat and shared lunch at Le Pichet in Seattle, was that the book is personal — to Ray, Wetzel, photographer Charity Burggraaf, The Willows Inn and nearly anyone this book touched during its creation.

for years in Paris as the English-speaking Paris restaurant critic for the website of Francois Simone, the French critic who inspired the snarling food critic, Anton Ego, in Pixar’s “Ratatouille.” Ray said he was lucky to be one of the first journalists to visit The Willows and meet Wetzel.

“Very quickly you could see he was headed in a certain direction.” said Ray. “Eventually I started thinking of writing a book. I liked him and I like the food and it was something new for me out here.

And he was game.”

Ray and his wife were married at The Willows in 2012. He asked Wetzel about the book a month later. By spring 2013, Ray and his wife moved from Brooklyn, New York, to tiny Lummi Island, where they rented a home and he started the process of writing.

Before reaching out to Ray, I set aside an evening, made tea and curled up to read the book. I say “book,” because “Sea

and Smoke” is one of those that toes the line between coffee table book and cookbook. It leans toward the former, but don’t discount the recipes just yet. They are not without purpose.

I meant to read it in sections, as I usually do with a cookbook that has a lot to say, but Ray’s voice drew me in, and by the chapter on reefnetting fisherman Ian Kirouac and his team, I found myself falling in with the emotion and urgency of a day’s catch.

I’ve never dined at The Willows, nor met Wetzel, but it’s clear that “Sea and Smoke” has a story for me, one that’s as familiar as my own backyard.

I discussed the recipes with Ray, specifically his days spent in the kitchen learning each dish.

“I wanted the challenge of writing the recipes,” said Ray, “These are to the letter how they do it in the kitchen.”

For a year, Ray spent Fridays in the kitchen, working all day with one person on one recipe — they even carved out a special place for him to stand so he wouldn’t be in the way. Afterward, he’d review and describe the technique. There See SEA AND SMOKE, Page D2

is little written down at The Willows and Ray is one of the only sources of written documentation of a dish’s process. “(The Willows’) most famous dish is the salmon and it’s right there,” Ray said, pointing at the cookbook. “You want to make that, you can. It’s hard work, but this is the effort it takes to make the best restaurant food in the world.”

I’m not near the caliber of chef that Wetzel is, hardly anyone is, so what on earth could I do with a recipe from him?

These creations take hours of work, sourcing, diligence, trial and repetition.

When I was in art school as a painting major I was required to copy the masters — anyone from Leonardo to Matisse.

“Be careful who you choose to copy,” my mentor said, “some can’t lead you anywhere new. They’ve done all that’s to be done, they’ve exhausted the vocabulary. Best to go back to the master who inspired their work.”

Cooking from Wetzel is like imitating a master. I don’t have his ability or creativity, and Wetzel’s work isn’t a starting point, it’s a pinnacle. I can still learn from him, but I’m not going to get as much from trying to exact his efforts as I would from looking at his process, and this is what “Sea and Smoke” provides.

“This book is an attempt to show you my process and how this rich island changed my perspective.” writes Wetzel, “The basis for most of these recipes is incredible ingredients that speak to you.”

As I write this I’m trying to stop eating what is actually a failed attempt at Wetzel’s milk jam. I cooked it at too high a heat, cut the recipe and didn’t factor the changes correctly. I’m used to a bit of wiggle room, but there’s none to be had here. As Ray put it: “There’s nothing said about scaling back the recipes. What’s the point.”

This is an opportunity to watch Wetzel work from the same ingredient palate available to me. To see him push hyper-local ingredients to their greatest realization. What Weztel is doing at The Willows is not only art, but something so unique that chefs around the world are clamoring to replicate.

“The setup he has any chef would kill for,” Ray said. “He’s got a farm right down the road that grows vegetables for him. He’s got reefnetters a mile down the road. There are literally times he has to wait for rigor mortis to pass through a fish before he can start using it.”

That’s just it. Only we in the Pacific Northwest have these specific items.

It’s not that other locations in the world don’t have mussels or salmon or woodruff, but Wetzel’s food isn’t about just any ingredient, but rather those available to him in a specific season, week, day. Although I can’t translate what I see around me just as he has, this is a spirit I can emulate.

So I did. Or at least I tried.

Several recipes call for fresh milk — it’s safe to assume all recipe items are intended to be fresh, as in picked at their peak and used not more than a day later, so I asked my friend if I could milk her goat. Instead, she brought me a quart of sweet raw goat milk fresh from that morning. I raided friends’ yards

for plants still flourishing in November’s cold. I foraged for madrona bark along Chuckanut Drive, and asked Taylor Shellfish Farms for live Fanny Bay scallops.

Here, I encountered my first tangible understanding of the transitory quality of the recipes in “Sea and Smoke.” Taylor Shellfish can no longer get live scallops, not only that, but Wetzel was one of the only ones to receive the Fanny Bay scallops when they could be harvested.

I mentioned the book and was asked, “Is there a picture of live razor clams in there? We gave Blaine the only ones we had.”

Yes, there is a picture of fresh razor clams in the book. And again, I’m brought to the connection each person has in this process going on at The Willows restaurant.

Fresh milk is now simmering for a second time on the stove, since that first batch of milk jam became more milk candy. Surprisingly, the slightly burnt caramelized curds are delicious and I’ve learned something new that fresh milk and heat can create together.

It’s nowhere near what Wetzel’s recipe intended, though, so back to the stove more fresh milk goes.

If you’re going to cook from “Sea and Smoke” — and here I must tell you of the shocked responses I get when I say I am actually cooking these recipes — Burggraaf’s photographs are an essential tool.

In my opinion, Burggraaf is the uncredited third author of “Sea and Smoke.”

Her photo documentation of not only the year in which Ray writes, transports you to Wetzel’s inspiration.

Sent on a photo assignment to The Willows, Burggraaf met Wetzel in fall of 2011. She was wowed by what she saw and the staff’s enthusiasm and chemistry.

“We had a great day shooting,” she said, “and afterward they invited us to join them for a beach bonfire and oyster roast … Never, had I ever experienced anything like it. A bonfire right on the beach, under a clear star-filled sky, eating some of the best oysters that I’ve ever tasted — they had this tequila sauce, it was fantastic. I felt so connected to this group of guys that I had only just met that day.”

“Sea and Smoke” tells a unique story, and its recipes show the careful process of Wetzel’s artistry. Burggraaf’s photography lends that “coffee table” appeal and Ray’s writing illuminates what makes The Willows and Wetzel such rarities in the culinary world. But it’s the spirit of Wetzel’s endeavor that carries the book.

“It’s a love song to the Pacific Northwest.” Ray said.

And this is a tune I can understand.

Who should buy this: Those with a love of Lummi Island and surrounding area. Anyone who has dined or plans to dine at The Willows Inn. Brave home cooks who love a hefty challenge. Chefs who want to learn from a master.

Note: Due to the sort of cooking this book requires, I think it’s best to note that several recipes contain incorrect reference pages for accompanying recipes.

The publisher is aware of these errors and plans to make corrections at reprint.

Smoked sockeye salmon For the salt brine 1 cup kosher salt For the glaze 1 ⁄2 cup high-quality unsalted butter 1 ⁄2 cup plus 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar 1 ⁄4 cup verjus Salt For the salmon 2 Lummi Island wild sockeye salmon fillets, pin bones removed In a large resealable container, whisk the salt into 1 quart of hot water until it’s completely dissolved, then store the brine in the refrigerator until cold.

For the glaze, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Once the butter begins to foam, whisk the brown sugar in slowly. Let it heat for 5 minutes to ensure all of the sugar has melted. Whisk in the verjus and add salt to taste, then cover the pan and reserve in the refrigerator.

For the salmon, trim the collar, belly, and tail end to create a form that’s rectangular seen from above and a uniform, flattened “D” shape from the side.

About a third of the fillet will be trimmed away as scrap.

Cut individual portions that are about 3⁄4 inch wide and place them in the container with the salt brine. Cut a sheet of parchment paper to fit the inside of the container, then lay it on top of the water to keep the salmon out of contact with the air.

Brine for 37 minutes, then drain and quickly rinse with fresh water.

Line a half-sheet pan with a double layer of kraft paper. The fish will smoke right on the paper, so make sure that the paper is cut small enough to fit inside the smoker. Set the fish on the pan, skin-side down, making sure each piece is positioned squarely upright and allowing plenty of space for air to circulate between each portion. Place the fish, uncovered, in the refrigerator to dry overnight, as close to the fan as possible.

The following day, start the smoker and set the salmon, still on the kraft paper but without the tray, into the smoker and away from the heat. As it smokes, make sure the fish is not sweating too much or drying out. (If it is, remove the salmon from the smoker until the smoker is cooler.) It should become slightly taut on the exterior, and the color will intensify while the cut edges become slightly white and translucent.

After about 21⁄2 hours, warm the glaze over low heat until it reaches 150 degrees — a temperature that’s just warm enough to spread thickly, but not so warm that it cooks the fish. Remove the salmon from the smoker and allow it to cool to room temperature, then apply a thick layer of glaze with a basting brush.

Smoke the fish for another hour, then remove the salmon from the kraft paper using a small offset spatula, sliding the spatula blade between the flesh and the skin, leaving the skin on the kraft

Scallops from Fanny Bay 4 live Fanny Bay scallops (about 1 pound, 3 ounces) 1 ⁄4 cup very fresh whole milk Dill oil (recipe at bottom) 1-inch piece fresh horseradish root Flake salt 4 teaspoons finely chopped dill stems 1 cup grapeseed oil 1 pound plus 5 ounces herb leaves At the height of winter, the live scallops that we buy arrive at the restaurant literally clapping their shells. We keep them alive until the moment before they are served, when we gently remove the top shell, clean away the skirts and any organs, and scrape out portions from the still-quivering adductor muscle using the top shell.

Just-harvested raw scallops have a very clean flavor, and we use very fresh milk to accentuate their creamy sweetness.

Gently take off the top shell of the scallops using a palette knife. Remove the skirts, roe, and any viscera.

Use the top shell to scrape the adductor muscle into small pieces (like a tartare), adding the milk as you go. (This dish is served in the lower half of the shell.) Drizzle a few drops of dill oil over the scallop, followed by a grating of horseradish, a sprinkle of salt, and a teaspoon of dill stems.

Now to make the flavorful herb oils: These herb oils, the recipe makes 1 quart, have the flavor of a fistful of just-picked leaves in every drop. We use them in some recipes instead of other fats or fresh leaves, keeping the menu light but full of flavor. It is key to blend the herbs with the oil until steam bellows out of the top of the blender and the emulsion is visibly separated.

These super-potent herb oils hold the bright flavor of fresh herbs throughout the year, essentially extending their season by months. This recipe is a real blender breaker, but it is well worth the occasional burnout and the unbelievable racket of hours of continuous high-speed blending.

Heat the oil to 140 degrees. Put the hot oil in a heavyduty blender, add the herbs, and blend on high for 15 minutes, which will both cook the herbs and evaporate the water they contain. Crack open the blender lid slightly to let steam escape. Pour the liquid into a saucepan over ice to stop the cooking, then strain the liquid through cheesecloth (don’t squeeze or the solids will be pushed out), tying the ends together and suspending the cloth over a bowl in the fridge overnight to extract as much oil as possible.

paper.

Brush the top of each portion with a second coat of glaze.

To serve, plate and serve immediately. If not serving the fish straight from the smoker, preheat the oven to 200 degrees and warm the salmon in the oven for 4 minutes before serving.

The process for our smoked cod (and the other fish we smoke) is very similar. We use a 11⁄4 -pound black cod fillet, slicing the portions on the bias. The brining time should be shorter — about 6 minutes — and the fish should only smoke for about 3 hours on individual 6-by-6-inch sheets of kraft paper. The pin bones are more easily removed after smoking, and there’s no glazing.

Makes two whole fillets.

A part of the turkey’s stomach contains tiny stones that the bird has previously swallowed. This organ has strong muscles and uses the stones to grind up food. Color the spaces with one dot to see what it is called.

The head of a turkey has very few feathers. But, it does have a snood and a wattle!

The snood is a fleshy body part that hangs over the turkey’s beak. The wattle is the fleshy area on the turkey’s throat.

When a turkey becomes frightened, agitated, excited or ill, the snood and wattle can change from their usual pale pink or bluish gray color to red, white, or blue.

Turkeys can run at speeds up to 25 miles per hour and can fly as fast as 55 miles per hour!

DAILY CROSSWORD

GRANDPARENTING | Tom and Dee Hardie with Key Kidder

Thanksgiving’s always such a hassle Dear Grandparenting: I envy families who come together at Thanksgiving and seem to have a wonderful time without breaking a sweat. Mine hasn’t figured that out. Thanksgiving is the hardest holiday and I don’t care what anybody else says. I speak from years of experience. Thanksgiving is supposed to be all about the whole family joining hands and giving thanks for their blessings.

That’s not what happens. Not everybody gets along. Someone usually drinks too much. People get their feelings hurt. I can count on someone showing up with dietary restrictions who needs a special meal and makes a production out of preparing whatever it is they are eating this month. Last year my niece started an argument when she made a big deal about how free-range turkeys tasted best.

You can tell that I’m already worked up and Thanksgiving isn’t even here yet. I am extra nervous because I’m the hostess this year and all 11 of my grandchildren are coming. It will be just the 2nd time they are all together. It’s hard enough to keep the adults in line.

How in the world do I handle my

grandchildren? I don’t want them running around going crazy and causing a disturbance. My house is big enough but I cannot keep an eye on everyone. Your brilliant or semi-brilliant ideas would be most welcome.

Bell, Waynesboro, Pennsylvania Dear Bell: For a major family production like your Thanksgiving, you certainly need a plan. The first order of business is to designate some deputies to help you ride herd over your clan. By tasking the mothers of your grandchildren with specific responsibilities, you’ll keep your head above water.

Give your grandchildren a way to be included, within limits. We’d insist all grandchildren be front and center to mingle with relatives for 30-40 minutes before the turkey is served. Provide paper and crayons for youngsters to make place cards for all your dinner guests. Consider renting or borrowing three or four card tables to seat the grandchildren. Divide them into groups of four according to age or interests and set the card tables in an adjoining room, close enough to keep an eye on

he grandchildren but not so close they interrupt the more civilized proceedings at the main dinner table. Your other guests will appreciate the grandchildren being segregated during mealtime.

Now the final phase of your planning kicks in. Kids don’t want to be trapped after they finish eating. They become restless and whiney. So set them free and give them something to do while the adults linger over their meal.

Ask their mothers to bring board games or videos to entertain the munchkins and prevent meltdowns. With your Thanksgiving rolling out so smoothly, don’t forget to count your blessings Ð all 11 of them.

Grand remark of the week Matty from Kingsport, Tennessee, is retired, “but I have a part-time job spoiling my grandkids.”

The Daily Herald

Wife yearning for hubby’s support must rely on own Dear Abby: While I was nine months pregnant with my first child, I asked my husband what he would say if I had any problem during my delivery and he was asked to choose between me or the baby. His answer was, “Of course I’d pick the baby because you can never replace the baby.” His answer broke my heart.

Four days later, my water broke at 36 weeks, and I thank God for giving me a healthy little boy.

While in labor, I was terrified because I had some complications with my health at the beginning of my pregnancy. I can’t get it out of my head now, because I feel like my husband doesn’t love me. I have tried to talk to him about how it hurt me, but his answer is that this is his belief and I can’t change that. Was I wrong for asking him? — Mother In Amarillo, Texas Dear Mother: I don’t think so. You were asking for his reassurance, and I’m sorry you didn’t get it. If a child is delivered in a Catholic hospital, the policy is to save the child if a choice must be made.

It appears this is also your husband’s belief.

My advice is, dry your tears and remember that what he implied about wives being replaceable can also be said about husbands. Perhaps it’s time to give serious thought to drawing up a health care directive so that, in the event you should become unable to make decisions for yourself in the future, your wishes are clearly known.

Dear Abby: When I was in my 20s and out on my own, my father left my mother for his secretary, “Doris.” They married RIP HAYWIRE

BRIDGE Many of my readers enjoy duplicate competition.

Matchpoint duplicate is challenging; the strategies differ from rubber or party bridge.

To improve their scores, duplicate players can try “Winning Duplicate Tactics”

by David Bird, or “Matchpoints” by Kit Woolsey, a classic book recently updated.

In today’s deal from “Matchpoints,” West leads the king of clubs against four spades.

East wins the next club and gives West a club ruff, and West exits with a trump.

soon after. She is a nice enough person, but she can be a little pushy. I have had to work on setting boundaries with her.

Every time we talk or visit — maybe once a month — Doris makes a point of telling me she loves me, and it’s clear she’s hoping I will reciprocate. I’m happy we are on good terms. I’m glad she’s married to my dad because he seems happy with her. I’m comfortable with my daughter calling her Grandma. But I can’t bring myself to tell her I love her because I don’t feel that way about her.

I hoped Doris would get it when I responded with things like, “It’s great to see you, too,” but it hasn’t happened. She’s estranged from her own daughter, and I think she wants to feel like she’s my mom, which I’m not comfortable with.

Dad refuses to talk about anything related to his wife, so he is of no help. How can I get my stepmother to back off without hurting her feelings? I want to remain on good terms. — On Good Terms In Illinois Dear On Good Terms: Try saying this: “You’re loved, too, Doris.” It’s not a lie because your dad does love her, and it may satisfy her if she doesn’t see this column.

Today is Wednesday, Nov. 25, the 329th day of 2015. There are 36 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight: On Nov. 25, 1915, a new version of the Ku Klux Klan, targeting blacks, Jews, Catholics and immigrants, was founded by William Joseph Simmons, who proclaimed himself the Imperial Wizard of the group as he staged a cross-burning on Stone Mountain outside Atlanta.

On this date: In 1783, the British evacuated New York, their last military position in the United States during the Revolutionary War. In 1864, during the Civil War, Confederate agents set a series of arson fires in New York; the blazes were quickly extinguished.

In 1908, the first issue of The Christian Science Monitor was published.

In 1920, radio station WTAW of College Station, Texas, broadcast the first play-by-play description of a football game, between Texas University and the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas. (Texas
