Airbus has chosen Nova-Tech Engineering to design and build a final assembly line in Germany for its A320 jet.

By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

LYNNWOOD — Airbus Group has turned for help to a 100-person engineering firm in Lynnwood as it ramps up A320 production to breakneck rates.

The European airplane maker tapped Nova-Tech Engineering

75¢ (HIGHER IN OUTLYING AREAS)

to design, build and install a new final assembly line for its popular single-aisle airplane in Hamburg, Germany.

A person familiar with the project confirmed the deal.

He spoke on the condition of anonymity out of concern that publicly discussing the matter could cost him his job. The

contract amount could not be determined Thursday; Airbus and Nova-Tech declined to comment.

The two companies discussed possible A320 work during a meeting at last year’s Paris Air Show, Bill Bigot, Nova-Tech’s vice president of business development, told The Herald in an interview last June.

Airbus and Boeing have been fiercely fighting to sell more single-aisle airplanes for years. The

efficient, flexible, utilitatarian airplanes — Boeing’s 737 and Airbus’ A320 — are the workhorses of commercial aviation around the world, and make up most of the new airplane deliveries.

In 2015, Airbus delivered 491 A320s — 77 percent of all deliveries. Boeing had similar numbers. It delivered 495 737s — 66 percent of all deliveries.

Big deal for Lynnwood firm

Herald Writer

OLYMPIA — Drivers frustrated by experiences with the express toll lanes on I-405 between Lynnwood and Bellevue urged lawmakers Thursday to make them work better or get rid of them.

“This is a disgusting, appalling use of taxpayer dollars,” Mike Arntzen, of Bellevue, told the Senate Transportation Committee. “This is like a cancer that needs to be eliminated.”

But other motorists praised the lanes for improving travel on the often-clogged interstate and hoped legislators steer clear of ordering any significant changes.

“I’ve not encountered any problems,” said Duncan Milloy, of Mill Creek. “Paying a modest toll is well worth it to reduce my time on the road.”

Fourteen people testified to the committee on Senate Bill 6152, which would reduce the number of lanes, open them to all vehicles at night for free and erase the double white lines to enable easier access to and from the lanes.

“Right now it is not working and anyone who drives that corridor will tell you that,” said Sen. Andy Hill, R-Redmond, the bill’s sponsor. “I think we need to fix it.”

Rep. Mark Harmsworth, R-Mill Creek, who introduced an identical bill in the House, told senators he had heard “literally thousands and thousands of complaints” about the lanes since they opened on the 17-mile stretch.

He called it a “failed experiment” and said the bills offer “a moderated approach” to improve travel for drivers.

The express toll lanes opened to traffic Sept. 27. Under existing law, they are allowed to operate for two years before lawmakers could consider axing them.

Today, there are two toll lanes in each direction from NE 6th Street in Bellevue to just south of SR 522 in Bothell, and a single lane in each direction from SR 522 to Lynnwood.

Alan Rickman, star of stage and ‘Harry Potter,’ dies

By Jill Lawless Associated Press

LONDON — British actor Alan Rickman, a classically trained stage star and sensual screen villain in the “Harry Potter” saga and other films, has died.

He was 69.

Rickman’s family said that the actor died Thursday in London of cancer.

Daniel Radcliffe, who played opposite Rickman in eight “Harry Potter” films, said Rickman was “undoubtedly one of the greatest actors I will ever

work with.”

Born to a working-class London family in 1946 and trained at Alan Rickman the prestigious Royal Academy of Dramatic Art, Rickman was often cast as the bad guy; with his rich, languid voice he could invest evil with wicked, irresistible relish.

His breakout role was as scheming French aristocrat the Vicomte de Valmont in

an acclaimed 1985 Royal Shakespeare Company production of Christopher Hampton’s “Les Liaisons Dangereuses.”

Film roles included Hans Gruber, the psychopathic villain who tormented Bruce Willis in “Die Hard” in 1988; a deceased lover who consoles his bereaved partner in 1990’s “Truly Madly Deeply”; the wicked Sheriff of Nottingham in “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves” in 1991; and a wayward husband in 2003 romantic comedy “Love Actually.”

Millions know him from the Potter films, in which he played Hogwarts teacher Severus Snape, who was either a nemesis or an ally — possibly both — to the titular teenage wizard.

Rickman’s villains were memorable, and included an Emmy-winning turn as “mad monk” Rasputin in a 1996 TV biopic. But Rickman’s screen roles were remarkably varied, and included the upright Col. Brandon in Ang Lee’s 1995 film version of “Sense and Sensibility” and Irish

politician Eamon de Valera in 1996 historical drama “Michael Collins.”

He appeared onstage, earning Tony Award nominations for “Les Liaisons Dangereuses” in 1987 and Noel Coward’s “Private Lives” in 2002.

Rickman was also a filmmaker, directing and co-starring opposite Kate Winslet in the 2014 costume drama “A Little Chaos.” Seventeen years earlier, he’d directed Emma Thompson and her mother Phyllida Law in “The Winter Guest.”

In 2005, he directed “My Name is Rachel Corrie,” a play based on the diaries of an American pro-Palestinian activist killed by an Israeli bulldozer in the Gaza Strip.

Rickman is due to appear in two yet-to-bereleased films: “Eye in the Sky,” with Helen Mirren and Aaron Paul; and the animated “Alice Through the Looking Glass.”

Rickman is survived by his partner of 50 years, Rima Horton, whom he married in 2012. Funeral details weren’t available.

‘Revenant’ tops Oscar nominations with 12

By Jake Coyle Associated Press

The brutal 1820s frontier revenge thriller “The Revenant” landed a leading 12 nominations for the 88th annual Academy Awards, while the acting categories were again filled entirely by white performers a year after the Oscars came under withering criticism over its lack of diversity.

The strong showing Thursday for “The Revenant,” including a best actor nod for Leonardo DiCaprio and best supporting actor for Tom Hardy, follows its win at the Golden Globes. It sets up director Alejandro Inarritu for a possible back-to-back win following his sweep of best picture, director and screenplay for “Birdman” last year.

George Miller’s post-apocalyptic sequel “Mad Max: Fury Road” followed with 10 nominations, including best picture and best director for Miller. Ridley Scott’s sci-fi epic “The Martian” landed seven nominations, including best picture and best actor for Matt Damon, but, surprisingly, no best director nod for Scott.

Eight out of a possible 10 films were nominated for best picture. The other five were: Tom McCarthy’s investigative journalistic procedural “Spotlight,” Steven Spielberg’s Cold War thriller “Bridge of Spies,” Adam McKay’s Michael Lewis adaptation “The Big Short,” the mother-son captive drama “Room” and the ‘50s Irish immigrant tale “Brooklyn.”

The acting nominees, which notably omitted Idris Elba for “Beasts of No Nation” and Benicio Del Toro for “Sicario” — both of whom were predicted by many handicappers — gave the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences an awkward repeat of the “OscarsSoWhite” backlash that followed last year’s acting nominees.

Alongside DiCaprio and Damon, the best actor nominees are: Michael Fassbender (“Steve Jobs”), Eddie Redmayne (“The Danish Girl”) and Bryan Cranston (“Trumbo”).

The best actress field is led by favorite Brie Larson for “Room,” along with Jennifer Lawrence (for “Joy,” making her, at 25, the youngest four-time nominee), Cate

Blanchett (her seventh nod, for “Carol”), Saoirse Ronan (“Brooklyn”) and Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years”).

“Spotlight” landed six nominations including best director for McCarthy, best screenplay for McCarthy and Josh Singer, best supporting actress for Rachel McAdams and best supporting actor for Mark Ruffalo.

Sylvester Stallone, reprising his role as Rocky Balboa in “Creed,” looms large in the supporting actor category. His stiffest competition is seen as Mark Rylance, best known for his stage work, for “Bridge of Spies.” Also nominated were Tom Hardy (“The Revenant”) and Christian Bale (“The Big Short”).

Nominees for best director shunned not just one filmmaking legend in Scott, but also Spielberg. Instead, Lenny Abrahamson for “Room” was the unexpected addition along with Adam McKay, known best for his broader Will Ferrell comedies, for “The Big Short.”

Along with Mara and McAdams, the best supporting actress nominees were Alicia Vikander (“The Danish

Girl”), Jennifer Jason Leigh (“The Hateful Eight”) and Kate Winslet (“Steve Jobs”), her seventh nod.

As expected, Pixar’s “Inside Out” landed a best animated feature nod, as did the Charlie Kaufman-penned stop-motion animation “Anomalisa,” “Shaun the Sheep Movie,” “Boy and the World” and “When Marnie Was There.”

The foreign language category drew films from Hungary (“Son Of Saul”), France (“Mustang”), Jordan (“Theeb”), Denmark (“A War”) and Colombia (“Embrace the Serpent”).

The box-office behemoth “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” failed to land a best picture nomination.

It instead scored five technical nods for editing, score, visual effects, sound mixing and sound editing.

Netflix again broke into the documentary category with “What Happened, Miss Simone?” and “Winter on Fire: Ukraine’s Fight for Freedom.” The other nominees were “Amy,” “Cartel Land” and “The Look of Silence.”

The defendant will remain behind bars while await- John Alan ing trial. A decade Whitaker and a half ago, he was part of a group that called itself the “Northwest Mafia.” They specialized in homeinvasion robberies of Snohomish

County drug dealers and adopted nicknames in an homage to the fictional thugs in Quentin Tarantino’s violent crime thriller “Reservoir Dogs.”

One member of the group, Burkheimer’s jealous ex-boyfriend, John Phillip “Diggy” Anderson, decided she needed to die. He lured her to a south Everett duplex where she was bound and beaten.

Later, she was stuffed into a duffle bag and driven to the hills outside Sultan. Her killers dug a

grave. Anderson shot her.

The group’s members turned on each other once detectives began investigating the Marysville teen’s disappearance. Investigators were led to her grave. Most of the eight involved in the crime cut deals, exchanging testimony against codefendants in exchange for lighter punishment.

Woman accused of stealing Christmas donations

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

EVERETT — It really wasn’t in the spirit of the season.

An Arlington woman has been accused of stealing hundreds of dollars that had been collected from Salvation Army donation buckets in the week before Christmas.

The suspect, 26, once worked

on behalf of the nonprofit organization and knew how the money was collected, according to an Everett police report.

Police allege that on Dec. 17 she passed herself off as a current Salvation Army employee and was able to get a key to the money collection pots at an Everett Fred Meyer store. She then replaced the full pots with empty ones.

Police estimate that she stole

about $400 that day.

She reportedly tried the ruse again two days before Christmas at a north Everett QFC. “This time the bell ringers had been warned that someone was pretending they worked for Salvation Army and not to release the collection pot to anyone unless they had proper identification,” the police report said.

She reportedly told them that

she forgot her identification and eventually left.

Police showed up at the woman’s doorstep Wednesday. She allegedly confessed.

She was booked into the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of criminal impersonation with the intent to defraud.

Senate panel to seek subpoena in early release of inmates

By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

front porch

OLYMPIA — Expressing concern about an ongoing state investigation into the early release of thousands of prisoners in Washington state over a 13-year period, Republican leaders of a Senate committee said Tuesday they are seeking subpoena power in order to conduct their own investigation.

Senate Law and Justice Committee Chairman Mike Padden and Vice Chairman Steve O’Ban, joined by Senate Majority Leader Mark Schoesler, told reporters at a news conference

that they had concerns about the independence of the investigation currently being done by two retired federal prosecutors. Democratic Gov. Jay Inslee hired the investigators to lead a probe into why a software coding error that miscalculated prison sentences occurred and then went unfixed for so long.

The error, disclosed Dec. 22, has led to the early release of up to 3,200 prisoners since 2002. At least two deaths have been tied to the early releases.

The pool at McMenamins Anderson School in Bothell is closed until further notice while additional ventilation is installed to reduce a thick fog that makes it difficult to see people in the water.

During a Jan. 4 inspection by the King County Public Health Department related to three cases of minor food poisoning, an inspector noticed a thick fog over the North Shore Lagoon.

McMenamins Pool Manager Debra Shelton said her department was already aware of the problem and planning on closing the pool independently. The thick fog created a situation where lifeguards were unable to clearly see the pool.

“We’re working with the Health Department to take care of the fog that sets up in our pool area,” she said. “We’re working on a very prompt solution. I know the engineer has already been in.”

The open air skylights in the pool chambers, designed to keep the room from becoming too humid, were drawing in cooler winter air, which turned to fog by hitting the pool’s 90 degree water, Shelton said.

“The water is perfect, the chemicals are perfect, it’s just the fog that’s created by our open air skylights,” she said. “We just need better ventilation to get the steam out of there.”

The pool could be reopened in a few weeks, though no specific date was available. Updates will be posted on the company’s website, at www.mcmenamins.com/ AndersonSchool.

When McMenamins purchased the property, it agreed to let Bothell residents use the pool for free.

of the governor as the chief executive of our state who oversees the Department of Corrections investigating himself,” said O’Ban, R-Tacoma. “We are in this unfortunate position as a co-equal branch of government that has the duty, the responsibility, to provide accountability to the administrative branch.”

Padden and O’Ban notified Democratic Inslee of their intentions in a letter late Wednesday night, though Inslee on Thursday noted that the press was notified before his office was.

Inslee told reporters that if lawmakers had specific questions, all they had to do was to ask him or his staff.

“We all want to get to the bottom of this,” he said, and stressed the independence of the investigators’ work.

“I am not controlling or directing this investigation, and that’s important,” Inslee said, saying that implications otherwise are trying “to make this some kind of political partisan thing.”

“If you ask people who is more likely to get to the bottom of this fastest, it’s probably two prosecutors instead of one political party in an election year,” he said.

The Department of Corrections was first alerted to the error — which started in 2002 — in December 2012, when a victim’s family learned of a prisoner’s imminent release. The family did its own calculations and found he was being credited with too much time.

However, even though the agency consulted with attorneys regarding the error the same month and scheduled a fix for the program, it was repeatedly delayed and ultimately, never done.

Department of Corrections Secretary Dan Pacholke said he didn’t learn of the error until the middle of last month, and the governor says he didn’t learn of the issue until that same time, when corrections’ officials notified his staff.

The committee’s move comes after Padden,

R-Spokane Valley, said too many unanswered questions remained following a committee hearing earlier this week. At the Monday hearing, Pacholke was unable to answer several of Padden’s questions, including why it took more than a month for the head of the agency’s technology department to notify senior officials in about the problem, even though Padden said his questions for Pacholke were submitted in advance. Padden also said that lawmakers’ efforts to obtain records from the governor’s office and the Department of Corrections have been delayed.

Inslee spokeswoman Jaime Smith wrote in an email that the requests were being “handled properly and in accordance with the public records act.” She wrote that neither Padden nor his staff has requested one of the documents cited in his letter, a contract between the state and the investigators, but the office would have “been happy to give it to him if he had asked our office for it.”

“From the start, our administration has cooperated fully with the Legislature and we will continue to do that,” Smith wrote.

The Senate committee plans to start the subpoena process next week by passing a resolution seeking all documents from the Department of Corrections and the governor’s office pertaining to the erroneous early releases.

“This is something that was thrust upon us and we have an obligation to get to the bottom of it,” Padden said.

According to state records, the last time a legislative committee sought subpoena power was in 1988, when the Senate Rules committee authorized the Senate Law and Justice Committee to get records regarding alleged child abuse by a superior court judge that were held by the state Judicial Conduct Commission. The state Supreme Court quashed the subpoena, saying that that legislative subpoena power could not be used to compel violation of the commission’s confidentiality rules.

Bomb threat in ‘kid print’ at Snohomish school Herald staff CATHCART — An unsubstantiated bomb threat was reported Thursday at Little Cedars Elementary School.

It was in red ballpoint pen.

“It was kid print, a younger kid,” School District spokeswoman Kristin Foley said.

Kids were cleared from buildings and told there was a fire drill “so as not to alarm them,” Dickert wrote.

upheld on appeal in 2006, but a ruling in a separate case opened the door for him to seek another trial.

During Whitaker’s 2004 trial, the courtroom was briefly closed to spectators while six prospective jurors were questioned individually about their ability to hear evidence in the case. Whitaker’s attorneys successfully argued that breach deprived their

client a public trial.

There are challenges in preparing for the new trial, one of Whitaker’s attorneys, Cooper Offenbecher, of Seattle, told the judge.

Among other things, it has been difficult arranging interviews with Whitaker’s former associates. Many of them are in prisons around Washington and some have since retained lawyers of their own, he told the judge.

The passage of time also has been a complication, deputy prosecutor Edirin Okoloko said. A forensic scientist who testified in the earlier trials has since died. On Thursday, the prosecutor got the judge’s permission to submit evidence he’d earlier tested to a fresh examination by another expert.

The trial is expected to take up to five weeks.

After fatal crash, ‘Duck’ tours resume Friday Associated Press SEATTLE — A Seattle tour company involved in a deadly crash in September will resume passenger tours in its amphibious vehicles.

Ride the Ducks of Seattle officials made the announcement Thursday, saying passenger service will be relaunched at 11 a.m. Friday.

Online and phone reservations opened Thursday morning. The

first two tours are already sold out, Ride the Ducks spokesman Mark Firmani said.

A crash Sept. 24 killed five international college students and injured dozens of others when a repurposed military “duck boat” swerved into an oncoming charter bus on the Aurora Bridge, a sixlane span with no median barrier.

The company’s operations were suspended by the commission days after

the accident.

The National Transportation Safety Board in a preliminary report determined that a defective axle on the Duck vehicle caused the crash.

Although Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission staff found 442 violations when they investigated the company, most were related to record-keeping.

Earlier this week, Brian Tracey, president of Ride the Ducks Seattle, said

he came to an agreement with Seattle Mayor Ed Murray’s office regarding their route and operation on city streets and waterways.

The agreement stipulates that the company will add a tour guide to every tour, allowing the captain to focus on vehicle operation, and that the tour route will not include the use of the Aurora Bridge.

The tours instead will travel on the nearby Fremont Bridge.

Armed group’s plan to tell locals when they will leave Oregon wildlife refuge in ‘limbo’

By Keith Ridler Associated Press

BURNS, Ore. — The leader of an armed group occupying a national wildlife refuge said Thursday that they may not have a meeting with local residents because the group can’t find a place for the gathering.

The group protesting federal land policies had planned to hold a meeting Friday evening in Burns to explain themselves and tell residents when they will leave.

Leader Ammon Bundy told reporters the meeting is now in doubt because Harney County officials won’t let them use the

fairgrounds, as they had hoped.

“It’s still in limbo,” Bundy said. “We’re still going to have it. It’s just a matter of when and where.”

Officials in Burns, about 30 miles from the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, said the meeting can’t be held at the Harney County fairgrounds or any other county facility.

On Wednesday, the county fire chief — a sympathizer of the armed group — resigned over the county’s refusal to host the meeting.

Chris Briels, a member of the Harney County Committee of Safety, announced his resignation surrounded by the cheering anti-government activists. The safety committee, which had previously asked the armed men to leave town, has now offered to take on the cause of the occupiers after

they depart. That cause includes turning control of federal land over to local ranchers.

Briels, who said he does not condone violence but agrees with the armed men’s mission, has been fire chief in the community for over 20 years. He said he resigned because he feels intimidated and betrayed by local officials.

Earlier this week, several members of the group occupying the wildlife refuge traveled to neighboring Grant County to ask the sheriff there to travel to Harney County to voice his support.

According to the East Oregonian, Sheriff Glenn Palmer declined. Though Palmer did not directly approve of the occupation, he described the armed men as “patriots” and commended them for bringing government land management issues to light.

On Thursday, the Oregon State Sheriff’s Association issued a statement in support of Harney County Sheriff David Ward, who has been the face of the local response to the occupation.

Ward has listened to residents at community meetings and has met with Bundy to ask the armed men to leave the refuge. He even promised the group he’d escort them to the county’s boundaries.

Bundy has previously said the occupiers would not leave until a plan was in place to turn over federal lands to local authorities.

They also want the release of Dwight and Steven Hammond, father-andson ranchers convicted of arson who returned to prison earlier this month to serve longer sentences.

The Hammonds’ case set off the occupation on Jan. 2, but the two ranchers have distanced themselves from the armed group.

Federal, state and local law enforcement are monitoring the occupation but have not taken action to remove the armed group.

Meanwhile environmental groups have announced they’ll hold rallies in Oregon and Washington to support national public lands and federal workers who oversee them.

How Congress voted on 24 key issues in 2015

By Richard G. Thomas Voterama in Congress

WASHINGTON — Here are summaries of 24 of the most important votes in Congress in 2015:

In the House

1. Keystone XL Pipeline, Reality of Climate Change: By a vote of 270-152, the House on Feb. 11 passed a bill approving construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline between the Canadian border and Steele City, Neb., while declaring “climate change is real and not a hoax.” A yes vote was to send the legislation (S 1) to President Obama, who vetoed it.

2. Steps to Foil Cyber Attacks: The House on April 22 passed, 307-116, a bill encouraging companies struck by cyber attacks to voluntarily share sensitive data on the incident with U.S. agencies in real time so that broad defenses can be quickly mounted to protect the government and private sectors. The bill largely immunizes companies submitting data from lawsuits based on privacy violations. A yes vote was to send the bill (HR 1560) to the Senate. The president signed a similar bill into law (Issue #21, below).

3. Government Spy Powers: The House on May 13 voted, 338-88, to bar the National Security Agency (NSA) from collecting bulk data on Americans’ telephone calls and other telecommunications under laws including the USA Patriot Act. The prohibition was added to a bill that renewed three sections of the Patriot Act that were due to expire June 1. A yes vote was to send HR 2048 to the Senate.

4. Authorization of Force Against ISIS: The House on June 11 refused, 196-231, to require Congress to formally authorize America’s military efforts against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) forces by March 2016. A yes vote was to push Congress toward passage of a war authorization that would supplant the 2001 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF) as the main legal basis for the current campaign against ISIS. (HR 2685) 5. Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership: The House on June 18 passed, 218-208, a bill (HR 2146) that would allow the proposed Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership to move through Congress without amendments or filibusters.

The fate of the agreement de-

pends on future House and Senate votes. A yes vote was to send the Senate a bill setting fast-track rules for later debates on the Pacific trade pact.

6. Defunding Planned Parenthood: The House on Sept.

29 voted, 236-193, to allow states to deny payments to medical providers including Planned Parenthood for health services provided to Medicaid recipients.

The effort to cut off payments to Planned Parenthood reflected longstanding conservative opposition to the organization’s providing of abortions using non-federal funds. Though the Supreme Court ruled in Roe v.

Wade that women have a right to choose to have abortions, current law prohibits federal funding of the procedure. A yes vote was to send HR 3495 to the Senate, where it has not advanced.

7. Fiduciary Standards for Financial Advisers: The House on Oct. 27 voted, 245-186, to sidetrack a proposed Department of Labor regulation that would require those who sell financial advice to retail investors to adhere to fiduciary standards obligating them to put clients’ interests ahead of their own profits.

A yes vote was to send HR 1090 to the Senate, where it has not advanced.

8. Added Screening of Syrian Refugees: The House on Nov. 19 voted, 289-137, to require the secretary of Homeland Security, FBI director and director of national intelligence to clear each refugee applicant from Syria or Iraq. A yes vote was to pass a bill (HR 4038) that added several steps to the current two-yearlong vetting process for such individuals. The bill later stalled in the Senate.

9. To Kill Rule on Carbon Emissions: Voting 242-180, the House on Dec. 1 adopted a GOPdrafted measure that would kill a new Environmental Protection Agency rule designed to limit carbon emissions from existing coal- and gas-fired power plants. A yes vote was to send the measure (SJ Res 24) to President Obama, who vetoed it.

10. To Tighten Visa Rules: The House on Dec. 8 voted, 407-19, to tighten the Visa Waiver Program, which allows nationals of 38 countries, mostly in Europe, to enter the United States visafree for up to 90 days. In part, the bill would exclude from the program those who have traveled to Iraq or Syria during the preceding five years, or who have dual citizenship with Iraq, Syria, Iran

or Sudan. A yes vote was to send HR 158 to the Senate, which has not acted on the measure.

11. Guns, Explosives, Terror Watch List: The House on Dec. 10 blocked, 242-173, a Democratic motion to force an immediate floor vote on a bill stalled in the Judiciary Committee that would bar the sale of firearms or explosives to individuals on the FBI’s terrorist watch list. A yes vote was to block a floor vote on the gun-control bill (HR 1076).

12. $622 Billion in Tax Breaks, Deficits: The House on Dec. 17 voted, 318-109, to extend several dozen tax deductions and credits that benefit families, individuals, businesses and other parties. The bill, which did not include offsetting revenue measures, would add $622 billion to the national debt over 10 years, or more than $700 billion when Treasury borrowing costs are factored in. This bill was later combined with a $1.15 trillion spending measure (HR 2029), passed by the Senate and signed into law by President Obama.

In the Senate

13. New Rule for Union Elections: The Senate on March 4 voted, 53-46, to disapprove of a new National Labor Relations Board rule that would quicken the pace of union elections. In part, the rule bars lawsuits filed mainly to delay the election process, and allows forms to be filed electronically with the NLRB instead of by regular mail.

A yes vote was to send SJ Res 8 to the House, which passed the measure. It was vetoed by the president.

14. Student-Loan Refinancing: The Senate on March 25 refused, 46-53, to establish authority for student-loan refinancing in the Republican budget plan for fiscal 2016 and later years (S Con Res 11). A yes vote was to allow tens of millions of borrowers to refinance their student loans down to interest rates that prevailed during the 2013-2014 school year.

15. To Provide LGBT Protections: The Senate on April 22 failed, 56-43, to reach 60 votes needed to adopt a Democraticsponsored measure that would renew the Runaway and Home-

less Youth Act with explicitly stated anti-discrimination protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) individuals. A yes vote was to adopt an amendment to S 178 containing LGBT protections.

16. Government Spy Powers: Voting 67-32, the Senate on June 2 gave final congressional approval to a bill (HR 2048) to end the National Security Agency’s collection and storage of bulk data on Americans’ telecommunications under Section 215 of the USA Patriot Act. The logs would remain with telephone companies, and the government would need court approval to gain access to specific records in the form of metadata. The bill also would renew three sections of the USA Patriot Act that were soon to expire, A yes vote was to send the bill to President Obama, who signed it into law.

17. Trans-Pacific Trade Partnership: Voting 60-38, the Senate on June 24 sent President Obama a bill (HR 2146) allowing trade deals including the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership to move through Congress without amendments or filibusters.

A yes vote was to set fast-track rules for trade debates over the next six years. The president signed the measure into law.

18. Defunding Planned Parenthood: The Senate on Aug. 3 failed, 53-46, to reach 60 votes needed to advance a GOP-drafted bill that would end federal grants and Medicaid payments to the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, a non-

the government and private sectors. The bill largely immunizes companies submitting data from lawsuits based on privacy violations. A yes vote was to pass a bill that President Obama later signed into law.

22. Clean Water Dispute: The Senate on Nov. 3 failed, 57-41, to reach 60 votes needed to advance a Republican bill that would kill a new Environmental Protection Agency rule giving protection under the Clean Water Act to waters such as wetlands and tributaries upstream of navigable waters. A yes vote was to advance S 1140 to full debate.

23. Guns, Explosives, Terror Watch List: By a vote of 45-54, the Senate on Dec. 3 defeated an amendment that sought to add a new prohibition against the sale of firearms or explosives to individuals on the FBI’s terrorist watch list. The amendment was offered to a bill (HR 3762) that would repeal the 2010 health law. A yes vote supported the gun-control amendment.

24. Elementary and Secondary Education: Voting 85-12, the Senate on Dec. 9 passed a bill extending elementary and secondary education programs for four years while devolving considerable authority to states and localities. The bill would continue reading and math testing started in 2002, but would allow local authorities to develop their own measures for responding to test scores. A yes vote was to send the conference report on S 1177 to President Obama, who signed it into law.

Rene Angelil, husband of Celine Dion, dies Singer Celine Dion and her husband, Rene Angelil, arrive for press interviews to promote her album “A New Day Has Come” in New York.

By Sally Ho and Nekesa Mumbi Moody Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Rene Angelil, Celine Dion’s husband and manager, who molded her from a French-speaking Canadian ingénue into one of the world’s most successful singers, died Thursday after a long battle with throat cancer, officials and family members said.

The 73-year-old Angelil died in the suburban Las Vegas home in Henderson he shared with Dion and their three children.

Angelil died of natural causes under the care of a

ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE, MARCH 26, 2002

doctor, Clark County Coroner John Fudenberg said.

No further investigation was expected.

A post on Dion’s Facebook page said: “It is with deep sadness that we announce that René Angélil, aged 73, died this morning at her residence in Las Vegas after a long

and courageous fight against cancer. The family wishes to live the mourning in privacy.”

U.S. Sen. Harry Reid, of Nevada, issued a statement saying he has always appreciated the couple’s support because they took a risk on Las Vegas when Dion began her residency

in 2002 at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace.

“As a result, we in Las Vegas feel Céline Dion is one of ours,” Reid said.

“She has brought so much positive attention to our city. Her love affair with René and her family was something that was so admirable.”

Calling Angelil an amazing showman and businessman, Caesars President Gary Selesner said it was impossible to overstate the impact he and Dion have had on the history of entertainment in Las Vegas and at Caesars Palace.

Dion’s shows Saturday and Sunday were canceled.

Jail: Sex was traded for information From Page A1

including evidence of the deputy repeatedly abusing his position of trust and the amount of money involved in the illegal activity.

O’Neill came under investigation after baristas in Kent began talking about a “dirty cop” in Snohomish County who reportedly was supplying their boss with confidential police information.

The “boss” was Carmela Panico, who then owned the Java Juggs and Twin Peaks chains in Snohomish and King counties. Prior to entering the coffee business, the former exotic dancer had for years worked for the Colocurcio family, helping to run strip clubs in Washington. Those businesses, including the notorious Honey’s north of Lynnwood, were shut down by federal prosecutors who proved the clubs were being used as prostitution fronts.

The coffee hut investigation by Everett police and the FBI found Panico

was raking in multimillion-dollar profits in her new venture. She installed stripper poles and hired former nude dancers to serve up sex along with coffee drinks.

Workers were paid in tips, and she took her cut. She also kept a separate set of books to hide her profits — a strategy that had been part of the Colocurcio business model, too.

In addition to tipping off stand workers about undercover investigations, detectives found O’Neill’s electronic fingerprints on dozens of license-plate checks, including on vehicles used by undercover officers or driven by their spouses, and the cars used by baristas and their friends.

O’Neill later told investigators it all started because he was bored and, in his words, “stupid.” He struck up a friendship with Panico that over time grew into an infatuation and a type of intimacy.

When the arrests came

in June 2013, however, O’Neill was on his own.

Panico and one of her managers reported trading sex for information from the deputy.

O’Neill at first repeatedly denied any inappropriate behavior. His story changed during a day of questioning, however, as he was confronted with phone records showing repeated calls with Panico and video of him, in uniform, in intimate embrace with coffee hut employees.

Both Panico and her former manager cut deals and agreed to testify for the prosecution.

On Monday Panico was given a first-time offender waiver. That spared her any time behind bars other than the two days she served in jail when the stands were raided in 2013. As part of her agreement to plead guilty to promoting prostitution and money laundering, the former Snohomish woman also gave up her bikini espresso stand business

and abandoned her claim to $250,000 in cash seized by investigators.

Sentencing for Panico’s former manager is set for next week.

On Thursday, defense attorney Mark Mestel told the judge he wasn’t excusing his client’s misbehavior, but he believed O’Neill shouldn’t be jailed when Panico largely avoided serving time behind bars.

Judge Judge was unmoved by that argument. Investigators talked with stand workers who reported how O’Neill had groped them, pulled aside their clothing and took other liberties. The young women said they didn’t object because it was understood the “dirty cop” who hung out around the stands at all hours was in tight with the boss, records show.

O’Neill exploited those women, the judge said.

“He used his position which he only was in because he was a police officer,” she said.

Deal: Rivals racing to meet demand From Page A1

All 737s come out of Boeing’s Renton plant, which has three final assembly lines.

Single-aisle airplanes make up a huge portion of both companies’ order backlog — 76 percent of Boeing’s 5,795 unfilled orders and 82 percent of Airbus’ 6,787 order backlog.

The rivals are racing to raise production rates to

meet demand. In 2010, Airbus made 36 A320s a month. Last year, it turned out 42 a month. That rate is going to 44 by March, 46 by mid-year and 60 by mid-2019. Six years ago, Boeing made 31.5 737s a month. The rate now is 42 a month and rising — to 47 in 2017, 52 the following year, and likely to 60 or 63 after that.

Airbus churns out A320s from its seven final assembly lines: one in Tianjin,

China; one in Mobile, Alabama; two in Toulouse, France; and three in Hamburg, Germany.

The new line in Hamburg is critical to Airbus’ planned rate increases.

Nova-Tech is opening a Hamburg office to support its work on the new line, which is slated to start assembling airplanes in July 2017, the person familiar with the project said.

The work is a prime

opportunity for Nova-Tech to get new business in Europe. The firm has delivered assembly machines and tooling before, but the A320 project will be bigger than any similar work it’s previously delivered.

In November, Brazilian planemaker Embraer named Nova-Tech its top supplier in 2015.

I-405: Several issues with the lanes From Page A1

They are separated from regular traffic by those double white lines, which are illegal to cross.

Access to the toll lanes is limited to direct-access ramps and to designated entry and exit points marked by dashed white lines.

SB 6152 would allow only one express toll lane in each direction. That would mean the second toll lane now between Bellevue and Bothell would become a general purpose lane.

The bill also would open toll lanes in both directions to any driver at no cost between 7 p.m. and 5 a.m. daily, and on state holidays. And the double white lines would be removed except in places where it might present a safety problem.

And under Hill’s bill, the toll lanes would be terminated in two years if average speeds of 45

miles per hour are not occurring 90 percent of the time in peak travel periods.

Since opening, the Department of Transportation has confronted several challenges with the lanes. Traffic is backing up in places where it didn’t before because of the design. Tolls hit the maximum $10 on six occasions in the first three months, which no one expected. And there have been foul-ups in collection of tolls resulting in refunds to thousands of drivers.

Transportation officials also note that more than 1 million drivers are using the toll lanes each month. And, on average, they are saving 14 minutes in their trips, according to DOT figures.

At Thursday’s hearing, opponents complained of those high tolls, increased congestion and great difficulty getting in

and out of the lanes.

Representatives of the Washington Trucking Association said drivers estimate their trips along that stretch of I-405 are taking 30 minutes longer. A lobbyist for the statewide motorcycling association talked of the excruciating experiences members experience in being allowed to drive for free in the lanes.

“Anyone claiming the 405 toll lanes are working is peddling fiction,” said David Hablewitz, of Bothell, a founder of Stop405Tolls.org, which has collected 28,000 signatures on petitions to eliminate the lanes altogether.

But providers and supporters of transit services lauded the lanes for enabling bus riders to reach their destinations with greater speed and reliability.

“There have been hiccups along the way,” said Bryce Yadon, state policy

director for Futurewise.

“They are doing what they are intended to do.”

Michael Zachary, a Mill Creek resident and member of Snohomish County Committee for Improved Transportation, said toll lanes provide him with better certainty when he gets on the road.

“Paying 75 cents to $5 is worth my peace of mind,” he said.

Afterward, Hablewitz said the message is getting heard in Olympia. He cited transportation officials’ acknowledgement they are making adjustments based on drivers’ concerns.

“This is a first step.

We’ve got them listening,” he said. “We’ve got the attention of the Department of Transportation. We’ve got the attention of leaders to take action.”

Angelil was born in Montreal to a Canadian mother and Syrian father.

He became the love of Dion’s life and the linchpin for her huge success, guiding her career for most of her life.

Angelil was a former singer-turned-manager when he received an audio tape of Dion, then 12, from her mother.

“At that time I had been in the business for 20 years,” Angelil recalled in a 1991 interview with The Associated Press. “In those 20 years, I had never heard or had a feeling come out of someone like this little girl I had in front of me. I had shivers all over,

you know.”

Dion has said he mortgaged his house to finance her first album. In time, Dion’s voice would become one of the most popular in the world, recalling big-voiced singers such as Barbra Streisand and Whitney Houston.

By the late 1990s and 2000s, her soaring voice had become dominant on the radio. The theme from “Titanic,” the smash “My Heart Will Go On,” has been her defining hit.

She and Angelil married in 1994 in an elaborate ceremony at Notre Dame Basilica in Montreal. He was constantly seen by her side.

OBITUARIES AND MEMORIALS

James “Gary” Haga Born in Arlington, Wash. on June 29, 1951 and went to be with his Lord December 13, 2015.

Fo r m a ny ye a r s h e wa s k n ow a s j u s t G a r y to h i s friends and family. But the last three and a half years or so he began being known as “The Sign Guy” In August an ar ticle was written in the Arlington Globe about Gar y called “Quiet, walking evangelist finds out h un dreds h ave h ea rd h i s message”. Gar y was so blessed that his message was getting to the people.

In the Everett Herald on D e c e m b e r 1 8 , 2 01 5 , a n article was written about him saying he was “The Street side Evangelist”. He would have loved that. To know he was touching so many for the Lord. He had taken his final walk home with Jesus five days before. I’m sure the Lord has been happy with his obedience, through the rain, the storms, and wind. He came home after a windy walk one day and told us he needed to make some changes to his signs. The front sign was not connected to the back sign. When the wind would whip around him e i t h e r t h e f ro n t o r b a c k would fly up and hit him in the head front or back. Quite startling I would say.

He could no longer do his eight-mile walks (four miles twice a day). His signs were getting too heavy and he was star ting to take falls.

He tried hooking his signs to a wagon but he then began to trip on the wagon. The bruises became noticeable.

Islamic State claims attack

Two are arrested after bombs, gunfire rock busy central Jakarta

By Richard C. Paddock and Shashank Bengali Los Angeles Times

JAKARTA, Indonesia — Suicide bombers and grenade-wielding gunmen affiliated with Islamic State caused mayhem in the world’s most populous Muslim nation Thursday by setting off a series of midmorning explosions in the heart of Indonesia’s crowded capital, but fell short of inflicting the extensive death toll witnessed in other attacks.

Two civilians were killed along with five assailants, who detonated suicide bombs and lobbed crude grenades near the Sarinah shopping mall, police posts and a Starbucks in central Jakarta. Officials said two attackers blew themselves up and three others were killed in gun battles with police.

At least two surviving attackers were arrested, police said.

Islamic State, the militant organization based in Iraq and Syria, claimed responsibility for the attack in an online statement, saying its operatives targeted citizens of a “crusader alliance” — an apparent reference to Western countries, according to Rita Katz, director of the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors extremist organizations.

Jakarta Police Chief Tito Karnavian said at a news conference that the attack was carried out by a network with “links to Islamic State.”

Officials said a Canadian national was killed and about 20 people were injured. But the toll could have been much higher, analysts said.

“They could have gone inside the mall and started

shooting,” said Yohanes Sulaiman, an Indonesian political analyst. “Instead they decided to attack the police post, which is pretty stupid when you think about it.”

By comparison, 130 people died in the Nov. 13 attack in Paris that was carried out by at least seven heavily armed gunmen and suicide bombers loyal to Islamic State. Nasir Abbas, a former terrorist who

now assists Indonesian police, called the Jakarta assault a “copycat” of the Paris attack.

Still, the first significant terrorist attack in Jakarta in seven years brought to life the fears of officials in this moderate Muslim nation that Islamic State backers would launch attacks here. Security experts have warned that Indonesian citizens who left to join Islamic State could return home and

carry out attacks, just as some Indonesian extremists did after enlisting with al-Qaida in the 1980s in Afghanistan.

It also raised concern about the widening reach into southern Asia of radicals who are inspired by Islamic State, even if not directly connected to the group. Loyalists have claimed responsibility for deadly attacks in recent weeks in Bangladesh and Afghanistan.

Authorities named the mastermind of the Jakarta attack as Bahrun Naim, an Indonesian in Syria with Islamic State.

The attack came after authorities arrested nearly two dozen suspected Islamic State supporters in December and January, saying they were planning coordinated attacks on New Year’s Eve. Before that, Islamic State had threatened the lives of top police officials.

Witnesses reported about five explosions, including near the Starbucks and in front of the Sarinah shopping mall, around 10:40 a.m. Both are located in the center of a normally buzzing business district in this city of 9 million.

Indonesian President Joko Widodo called for calm and said “the state, nation and people should not be afraid of such terror acts.”

The country’s deadliest attack occurred in 2002, when a car bomb exploded outside nightclubs in Bali, killing 202 people, mostly foreigners.

Bombings of luxury hotels followed in 2003 and 2009. But a security crackdown had largely kept the extremist movement in check. The bombings were carried out by Jemaah Islamiyah, a Southeast Asian network affiliated with al-Qaida.

Fewer than 100 Guantanamo prisoners left

By Ben Fox Associated Press

MIAMI — Ten prisoners from Yemen who were held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, have been released and sent to the Middle Eastern nation of Oman for resettlement, officials said Thursday, portraying it as a significant milestone in the long-stalled effort to shutter the detention center.

The release, among the largest on a single day under President Barack Obama, puts the prison population below 100 for the first time since shortly after it opened in January 2002 to hold men suspected of links to al-Qaida and the Taliban. There are now 93 held.

Lee Wolosky, the State

Department’s special envoy for Guantanamo Closure, said the U.S. expects to transfer the remaining prisoners who are cleared to leave, about a third of the total, by summer.

Guantanamo held nearly 680 prisoners at its peak in 2003 and about 245 when Obama took office, pledging to close it as a symbol of overreach in the war against terrorism and a propaganda symbol for enemies of the United States.

Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced the release of the Yemenis at a change-ofcommand ceremony in Miami at U.S. Southern Command, which oversees Guantanamo.

He said the administration would submit a plan to Congress, where many want to keep the prison open, to move

those who can’t be freed to a facility within the United States.

“Not everyone in Gitmo can be safely transferred to another country, so we need an alternative,” Carter said, using a common abbreviated name for the base on the southeastern edge of Cuba.

A White House official confirmed that Obama’s national security team recently received a new version of the plan and was making final revisions.

The 10 men who left Guantanamo late Tuesday were among several dozen men from Yemen who could not be sent back to their homeland, which is embroiled in a civil war.

All were deemed low-level enemy combatants and cleared

for transfer since at least 2010.

The prisoners included one who was 17 when captured and another the government conceded had only briefly served as a Taliban medic. None were ever charged.

David Remes, a lawyer for three of the men, said two, Mukhtar al Warafi and Saeed Hatim, got down on their knees and prayed in December when they learned they would be released.

The third, Fahmi Ahmed, at first wasn’t sure whether to believe it and wanted proof when he got word this week.

“The men learned to lower their expectations and indeed to have no expectations so that everything good is a surprise,” Remes said. “But this was a joyful surprise.”

Trump, Cruz go at each other in debate

By Julie Pace and Bill Barrow Associated Press

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. — Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump and Ted Cruz clashed Thursday night over the Texas senator’s eligibility to serve as commander in chief and the businessman’s “New York values,” ending months of civility between fiery contenders seeking to tap into voter anger and frustration.

In the two hours of primetime argument the candidates warned of dire risks to national security and challenged claims of recent economic gains for the middle class.

The heated exchanges between Trump and Cruz dominated much of the contest, with the real estate mogul saying the senator has a “big question mark” hanging over his candidacy given his birth in Canada to an American mother.

“You can’t do that to the

party,” Trump declared.

Cruz suggested Trump was only turning on him because he’s challenging Trump’s lead, particularly in Iowa, which kicks off voting Feb. 1. The senator also was on the defensive about his failure to disclose on federal election forms some $1 million in loans from Wall Street banks during his 2012 Senate campaign, saying it was little more than a “paperwork error.”

Cruz also renewed his criticism of Trump’s “New York values,” a coded questioning of his rival’s conservatism. But the biting barb appeared to backfire, eliciting an unexpectedly emotional response from Trump about his hometown’s response to the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

“No place on Earth could have handled that more beautifully, more humanely than New York,” Trump said. “That was a very insulting statement that Ted made.”

At times, the contest between some of the more mainstream

candidates was just as fiery, particularly between Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

Rubio likened Christie’s policies to President Barack Obama’s, particularly on guns, Planned Parenthood and education reform — an attack Christie declared false. Seeking to undermine Rubio’s qualifications for president, Christie suggested that senators “talk and talk and talk” while governors such as himself are “held accountable for everything you do.”

Trump stuck with his controversial call for temporarily banning Muslims from the United States because of fear of terrorism from abroad.

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush urged the front-runner to reconsider the policy. “What kind of signal does that send to the rest of the world?” said Bush, who has struggled to gain any momentum in the race.

On the economy and national security, the

candidates offered a sharp contrast to the optimistic portrait of the nation Obama outlined in his State of the Union address and warned that sticking with Democrats in the November election could have dire consequences.

Cruz accused Obama of painting a rosy picture of the country’s economic situation while working Americans are being “left behind,” and said Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton would continue the same policies. Bush suggested the country was less safe under Obama and declared Clinton would be a “national security disaster.”

Rubio went even further, saying Clinton was “disqualified for being commander in chief,” accusing her of mishandling classified information and lying to the families of Americans killed in the 2012 attacks in Benghazi, Libya.

Ben Carson generated laughs after joking about having to wait nearly 15 minutes to get his first question.

The winners of the world-record jackpot overcame odds of 1 in 292.2 million to land on the numbers drawn Wednesday night, 4-8-19-27-34 and Powerball 10. They can take the winnings in annual payments spread over decades or a smaller amount in a lump sum.

N.Y.: Anglican Communion suspends Episcopal Church For the first time, the global governing body of Anglicans has punished the Episcopal Church, following years of heated debate with the American church over homosexuality, same-sex marriage and the role of women. The Anglican Communion’s announcement Thursday that it would suspend its U.S. branch for three years was seen as a blow to the Episcopal Church, which this summer voted to allow its clergy to perform same-sex marriages. It was also seen as a victory for conservative Anglicans, especially those in Africa, who for years have been pressing the Anglican Communion to discipline the U.S. body.

The Episcopal Church will vote on its response to the suspension three years from now at its denomination-wide meeting. Observers say it is unlikely that the U.S. church will reverse its position on same-sex marriage.

D.C.: April 18 tax date Taxpayers nationwide will get a few days’ grace this year to file their returns thanks to a little-known holiday in the nation’s capital. And the head of the IRS promises 1,000 more customer services representatives will be available to ease waiting times on information lines. IRS Commissioner John Koskinen said Thursday that taxpayers will have until April 18 to file their returns. That’s because April 15 is Emancipation Day, a public holiday in Washington, D.C. Taxpayers in Maine and Massachusetts will have an additional day because of Patriot’s Day.

AROUND THE WORLD Turkey: Artillery hits IS Turkish tanks and artillery have attacked Islamic State group positions in Iraq and in Syria in retaliation for the suicide bombing in Istanbul that killed 10 tourists, Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Thursday. Close to 200 extremists were “rendered ineffective” — the government’s term for killed — in the past 48 hours, Davutoglu said. He spoke a day after Kurdish rebels detonated a car bomb at a police station in southeastern Turkey, then attacked it with rocket launchers and firearms.

Six people were killed, officials said.

The country is grappling with both the Islamic extremists and the rebels who have intensified attacks in the country.

Switzerland: Ebola halted The World Health Organization declared an end to the deadliest Ebola outbreak ever Thursday after no new cases emerged in Liberia, though health officials warn that it will be several more months before the world is considered free of the disease that claimed more than 11,300 lives over two years.

Thursday’s success comes after a harrowing toll: Nearly 23,000 children lost at least one parent or caregiver to the disease. Some 17,000 survivors are trying to resume their lives though many battle mysterious, lingering side effects.

Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea were epicenters of the latest outbreak.

Iraq: Kurds’ financial crisis Iraqi Kurds, who field one of the most effective ground forces fighting Islamic State militants, are urgently asking the U.S. to help ease their budget crisis made worse by slumping oil prices and 1.8 million people who have fled fighting in Iraq and Syria. Officials from the Kurds’ semiautonomous region of northern Iraq said Thursday that without help from the U.S. or its allies, the Kurds’ fighting force will be hampered in their fight against IS.

U.S. income gap begins at bottom

By Josh Boak Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The income gap in major U.S. cities goes beyond the trend of rising paychecks for those at the top: Pay has plummeted for those at the bottom.

Many of the poorest households still earn just a fraction of what they made before the Great Recession began in late 2007.

Even as the recovery gained momentum in 2014 with otherwise robust job growth, incomes for the bottom 20 percent slid in New York City, New Orleans, Cincinnati, Washington and St. Louis, according to an analysis of Census data released Thursday by the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank.

“It’s really about the poor losing ground rather than these upper-class households pulling

It’s really about the poor losing ground rather than these upper-class households pulling away.

away,” said Alan Berube, a senior fellow at Brookings and deputy director of its metropolitan policy program.

Consider Cincinnati, home to such major companies as Procter & Gamble and Macy’s that are associated with middle class prosperity. Its bottom 20 percent earned just $10,454 in 2014. After inflation, that’s 3 percent less than what they earned in 2013 — and 25 percent below their incomes when the recession

started eight years ago.

Cincinnati’s top 5 percent of earners made at least $164,410 in 2014, a figure that has increased since 2013, though it remains 7 percent below pre-recession levels.

The consequence is a widening income gap. The top 5 percent earned 15.7 times what the bottom 20 percent did in Cincinnati.

Nationally, this ratio was 9.3 — the same as in 2013. Before the recession, the ratio was 8.5.

The poorest have clawed back some of their earning power since the economy officially began to recover 61/2 years ago.

But the analysis suggests that strong job growth and modest pay raises have failed to pull millions of Americans back up the economic ladder.

The findings also complicate plans by presidential candidates to combat inequality because it’s unclear how tweaking tax rates on the wealthy — the Democrats largely favor increases, the Republicans cuts — will boost pre-tax incomes for the poorest.

Congressional Republicans have discussed increasing tax cuts for low-income workers without children as a way to address the absence of wage growth. It’s a plan, President Barack Obama said in his State of the Union See INCOME, Page A10

LOS ANGELES — The utility whose leaking natural gas well has driven thousands of Los Angeles residents from their homes has publicly understated the number of times airborne levels of the cancercausing chemical benzene have spiked over the past three months, the company’s own data suggests.

In trying to reassure the public there’s no long-term health risk from the leak, Southern California Gas Co. has said in news releases and FAQs on its website that since the crisis began, just two air samples briefly showed elevated concentrations of the substance.

But a closer look at the online data by The Associated Press and outside experts actually shows that a dozen samples from the Porter Ranch community contained at least twice the amount of benzene that Southern California air regulators consider the normal background level.

Federal government developing policies for self-driving cars

By Dee-Ann Durbin Associated Press

DETROIT — The federal government will propose best practices for safely operating autonomous vehicles within six months.

U.S. Department of Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said Thursday that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also will develop a model policy for states to follow if they decide to allow autonomous cars on public roads. That policy — which will be developed within six months — could help form the basis of a consistent national policy. Right now, individual states like California and Nevada have their own regulations for autonomous vehicle testing.

Foxx made the announcements Thursday during an appearance at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit.

Foxx also said President Barack Obama’s budget would provide $4 billion over the next decade for programs to test connected vehicles. Some vehicles already on the road can communicate with each other, or with traffic lights or stop signs, through cellular signals.

Eventually, the technology could prevent accidents, since vehicles could warn each other before they crash at an intersection.

Autonomous cars are rapidly advancing and are already being tested on public roads in some states. The government wants to encourage their deployment to improve safety, but says it needs

to make sure there are standards in place to ensure that the cars themselves are safe.

Foxx understands the need to act quickly. Speaking to a conference of transportation researchers earlier this week, Foxx said he’s concerned that the federal regulatory process can’t keep up with the fast pace of the technology that is making selfdriving cars possible.

“I don’t want to be stuck in a place where a given technology is put through our paces in a 3or 4-year window, because you can be two or three generations into that technology in terms of its capability by the time the first generation enters the marketplace,” he said. “We have to get faster, and we’re working through what that looks like.”

State of Union raises questions that need answers

JAMES McCUSKER

Energy stocks led a broad rally in U.S. stocks Thursday, giving the market its biggest gain in over a month. A recovery in crude oil prices helped put stocks into rebound mode a day after the market had its worst drop since September. Investors also welcomed some encouraging company earnings.

Chevron and Exxon Mobil each jumped about 5 percent, by far the biggest gains in the Dow Jones industrial average. It was a reprieve for the energy sector, which has been battered in recent months as crude oil prices plunged.

U.S. crude oil rose 2.4 percent Thursday.

The global economy faces a growing array of risks, the largest of which is climate change, according to experts polled by the World Economic Forum, which organizes the gathering at Davos. In a bleak assessment published Thursday ahead of next week’s meeting, the survey found that a failure to deal with and prepare for climate change is potentially the most costly risk over the next 10 years, ahead of weapons of mass destruction, water crises, large migration flows and energy price shocks.

Environmentalists say the California natural gas leak is the worst environmental disaster since the 2010 BP oil spill.

The possible reason for the discrepancy: SoCalGas apparently uses a different background level.

The company was given repeated opportunities to explain its conclusions but couldn’t.

“I don’t know what would explain it,” spokeswoman Melissa Bailey said.

Public health officials have sided with SoCalGas in saying they do not anticipate any long-term health problems. But some outside experts say the data is too scant to say that with any certainty. For one thing, it is unclear whether the benzene persisted long enough to exceed state exposure limits.

Seth Shonkoff, executive director of the energy science and policy institute at University of California, Berkeley, said he is surprised officials were so quick to discount the health risks.

“I have not seen anything convincing that it’s been proven to be safe,” Shonkoff said. “I’m not going on record as saying this is absolutely an unsafe situation; I’m saying there are a number of red flags.”

The leak at the biggest natural gas storage facility west of the Mississippi River was reported Oct. 23. The cause is unknown, but the leak has spewed huge amounts of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, and occasionally blanketed neighborhoods about a mile away with a sickening rotten-egg odor.

SoCalGas has run up more than $50 million in costs so far in trying to contain the leak and relocate families. Gov. Jerry Brown has declared an emergency, and some environmentalists are calling it the worst environmental disaster since the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010.

Health officials and SoCalGas have said most of the gas has dissipated, though the odor from the chemical additive that

Realities such as economics and public finance do not generally play a big part in State of the Union scripts, except in those years when market crashes, recessions, or financial disarray demand hand-onthe-wheel reassurance and restoration of confidence.

The annual State of the Union report is a constitutional requirement, even though the speech is not.

Separately though, the Employment Act of 1946 requires the president to provide Congress with an annual report on the state of the economy. Over time this report, which is not televised, has suffered from an apparent decline

in presidential interest and a consequent weight loss of its audience — which is now mostly made up of congressional committee staffers, economists, and policy wonks.

It makes sense not to make too much of the economy at this time.

While the economic recovery has an upbeat side, most of its positive achievements should have asterisks after them. Like some sports records and statistics, which can be affected by the number of games played or the structure of championship competitions, our economy has changed so much that the statistics aren’t what they used to be.

makes the gas detectable is blamed for nausea, headaches and nosebleeds.

Natural gas also contains smaller amounts of other compounds, such as benzene, which is of greatest concern because it causes cancer as well as anemia and other blood disorders.

In the Los Angeles area, benzene is typically detected in minuscule levels between 0.1 and 0.5 parts per billion, according to the South Coast Air Quality Management District. But SoCalGas says on its website that typical community levels are 2 parts per billion.

Apparently relying on that standard, SoCalGas said that benzene was found in amounts slightly higher than background levels in just two samples, both on Nov. 10, and returned to normal the next day.

The suspect readings were 5.6 parts per billion in one gated development near the facility and 3.7 parts per billion in the Porter Ranch Estates neighborhood of 1,100

homes.

However, a more detailed look at the data shows 10 other instances over seven days in November when benzene exceeded 1 part per billion. The clean-air agency also detected a reading of 3 parts per billion on Oct. 26.

Dr. Cyrus Rangan, a medical toxicologist from the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health, said the gas company’s website was incorrect.

“Don’t take cues from the gas company website of where the monitoring is and what the health risk is,” Rangan said.

The World Health Organization and U.S. government classify benzene as an undisputed cause of leukemia and other cancers. “No safe level of exposure can be recommended,” according to WHO. More comprehensive testing by the state is under way. Not as much gas is being released because the pressure inside the field has subsided as the volume has dropped.

but because the economy has changed it is a different dimension of reality from what we had gotten used to. Formerly brag-worthy levels of unemployment, for example, now need asterisks to explain how they have been affected by declining labor force participation or the spread of part-time jobs.

In its current form, a State of the Union speech is not the place to list the number of things we don’t understand about the current economy. There are no applause-seeking lines in a litany of what we don’t know.

One thing we don’t know enough about involves the role of entrepreneurs and technology in our economy. For example, as we began to recover from the darkest days of the crash and recession, many

economists were waiting for the expected “kick” that smaller businesses and entrepreneurial ventures would usually give to our output. It never arrived.

The U.S. Census Bureau’s Center for Economic Research (CES) recently put together a small, inter-agency posse to track down what happened to the missing “kick.” Their report, titled, “Where Has All the Skewness Gone?

The Decline in HighGrowth (Young) Firms in the U.S.,” has recently been published by the Census Bureau as a research paper (CES 15-43).

The chronology revealed in their analysis pretty much takes partisan politics out of the picture. As they report, “The pace of business dynamism and entrepreneurship in the U.S. has declined over

address Tuesday night, that “we can all support.”

Brookings found that the income gap was highest in Boston, where the top 5 percent made 17.8 times what the bottom 20 percent did. But that gap appears to reflect the large population of college and graduate students in a city containing Harvard University and other leading institutions of higher education.

New Orleans, where pay for the bottom 20 percent also declined, had the second-worst ratio at 17.7. Atlanta came in third-worst at 17.5 and Cincinnati fourth.

At the other extreme, incomes for the bottom 20 percent of earners jumped in Provo, Utah, where the ratio is a low 7.8. They also improved sharply in Denver despite above-average levels of inequality in that area.

recent decades.” But they found that “the character of that decline changed around 2000.” The term, “business dynamism” in this report is used by the authors to measure the flow of new firms entering and old firms dropping out.

The boost in new jobs created by entrepreneurial, young businesses that we had seen in previous economic recoveries had been provided by a relatively small number of firms. And for some reason, after 2000 these firms became harder and harder to distinguish from the rest of the pack.

Their once-outstanding rates of growth in productivity and job creation began to converge on the average growth rate for the group.

Why, exactly? We don’t know yet. It might be

Persistent income disparity has become increasingly visible in the housing market.

Brookings found that the bottom 20 percent of residents in the Washington, D.C., area — who earn just $21,230 — would need to spend nearly half their income on housing.

That analysis dovetails with findings released Thursday by the housing nonprofit Enterprise Community Partners.

Its “Make Room” campaign found that 11.4 million families — about 26.4 percent of all renters — devoted at least half their income to rent and utilities, a share that has steadily increased over the past decade.

A surge in apartment construction has done little to help address this problem because in many metro areas, a large proportion of new apartments are concentrated at higher-income levels, according to a report released in December by Harvard’s Joint Center for Housing Studies.

changes in the business models used by young, innovative firms. It might be that the nature of technological innovation has changed, causing shifts in time-lines and consequent changes in financing. This seems to be the case in the pharmaceutical area, for example. And the roles of intellectual property rights, universities, government, and Wall Street cannot be ignored.

One thing is certain, though. If we want to get our economy’s kicking game back there are some things we need to do. One of them is to find answers to the questions raised by this report.

Levy full fine for 911 failure only 770 emergency calls reached 911 dispatchers, 4,500 calls seeking help for domestic violence, assault, motor vehicle accidents and medical emergencies went unforwarded and unanswered.

This is not CenturyLink’s first 911 outage. Following a 10-day outage in the San Juan Islands in 2013 after an underwater cable was severed, the state Utilities and Transportation Commission last year ordered the company to credit customers $271,000, fined it $50,000 and is requiring nearly $3 million in equipment repairs and improvements.

The 2014 failure hasn’t gone unpunished. The Federal Communications Commission, following its investigation, criticized the companies for failing to live up to their obligations and for undermining the public’s trust in the 911 system. The FCC fined CenturyLink $16 million and Intrado $1.4 million.

CenturyLink must also answer to the state of Washington, but there is now disagreement between agencies as to the appropriate price

for CenturyLink to pay.

The UTC, following its investigation, initially proposed a settlement agreement in September that would require the phone company to pay the state $2.85 million.

The Office of the Attorney General is now pressing the UTC to impose the maximum fine, $11.5 million, which is based on the full penalty allowed for each unanswered call for help.

“The proposed settlement is woefully inadequate,” Attorney General Bob Ferguson said.

The UTC’s commission held a hearing Tuesday regarding the proposed settlement. A decision is expected later this year. During the hearing, Mark Reynolds, the company’s vice president for governmental affairs, said CenturyLink was not aware of the outage at the time, though he admitted the outage was foreseeable and preventable, SeattlePI. com reported Wednesday. An Intrado official also told UTC commissioners that “alarms” that might have alerted employees to the problem were not set at an easily

Therefore, I am acutely aware of maintenance and replacement needs across the district. A fundamental value of MEA is to keep our buildings secure, safe and well-maintained for our staff and students. For this reason, I encourage our voters to vote “yes” on the Capital Projects Levy on Feb. 9.

The Capital Projects Levy would provide needed funding to maintain and modernize school buildings,

improve playgrounds and HVAC systems, update security systems, replace boilers and update plumbing, and improve classroom technology. And, if approved by voters, the new levy would not increase property taxes; our tax rate will be the same or lower than the existing levy.

noticeable level.

But emergency communications staff at many of the dispatch centers in the state had noticed they were receiving fewer calls than normal and attempted to alert CenturyLink to a potential problem.

Instead of listening to the concerns, CenturyLink assured dispatch staff there were no problems, Ferguson said.

The UTC’s own investigation, the AG’s office noted, found emergency call centers were not properly notified of the failure and “were essentially left to their own devices to get the word out within the public safety community about the 911 outages.”

Limiting the fine CenturyLink should pay to a fourth of the maximum penalty doesn’t go far enough to impress on CenturyLink the severity of its failure to its customers to deliver a crucial lifeline to emergency responders.

“I don’t understand how a whole state could be without 911 access,” Cappola told HuffPostLive. “That just seems completely ridiculous.”

A $2.8 million fine is equally ridiculous.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■CLIMATE CHANGE

Population control necessary If, as they say, humans are responsible for climate change then they are the cause. Governments always try to tackle the results of problems rather than deal with the causes. In this case carbon emissions, etc.

It is time to face facts here and deal with the population explosion, 4 billion in the 1950s, 7 billion now. There are certain groups of people who for some reason want to breed as much as possible. These people must be exposed and pressured to reduce to twochild families.

The world cannot continue with the stress of such population expansion and until that fact is faced nothing will ever change.

GUEST COMMENTARY | Climate change

Who do we believe: Big Oil or scientists?

By Larry Gilmore

I

read with great interest Mr. Rash’s guest commentary in Saturday’s Herald, “There are no climate deniers, only skeptics of doomsayers,” and it raised a lot of questions for me that maybe he could answer.

He cites the little ice age and the medieval maximum as proof for his argument. The question here would be “what was the temperature in Los Angeles during that period?”

What’s that? You don’t know?

So what you’re claiming is weather for a “region” represents “global” facts. Sort of like looking out your window and seeing snow and deciding it’s that way everywhere.

He also mentions the Jurassic period and how carbon dioxide was five times what it is now. The Jurassic period was what 54 million years long? During that time plant life could evolve to handle that level of carbon dioxide. Currently on the planet, no plant life exists that could handle five times the level of carbon dioxide.

I make no claim that the climate on earth doesn’t change up and down, it’s a matter of how fast it does. Man does not cause climate change, but we effect the speed of climate change. We are squeezing millions of years into centuries and simply it’s a question of can the planet keep up?

The people who actually study this subject say “no, the planet cannot keep up,” people like Mr. Rash don’t believe them because they’ve been told these scientists are just trying to keep their jobs.

It must be one heck of a secret society when an overwhelming majority of those scientists worldwide are saying the same thing. It’s a good thing we have those billionaires in the fossil fuels industry to protect us from those thousand-aires scientists. For more than 50 years people were convinced that cigarettes were harmless. Not because the facts weren’t there, but a little money placed in the right pockets raised doubt.

IN OUR VIEW | CenturyLink 911 outage

Among the 6,600 missed calls to 911 that occurred in Washington and five other states during a six-hour period in April 2014, were those of an Everett woman who repeatedly called for help as an intruder menaced her and her young children in their home.

Alicia Cappola, in an interview with HuffPostLive following the outage, said she heard a banging at her front door at 1:45 a.m. and saw a man demanding to be let in.

Cappola made repeated calls to 911 but each time heard only a busy signal. When the man then attempted to come in through an unlocked window, Cappola grabbed a kitchen knife and confronted the intruder, who soon left.

In all, Cappola, attempted 37 times to reach a 911 call center; 37 times she heard a busy signal.

CenturyLink and its 911 vendor, Intrado Communications, later traced the problem to software at a facility in Colorado that bottled up the calls without forwarding them to the proper call centers. In Washington state, 127 dispatch centers were affected;

The fact is worldwide the temperature is rising, even with dips and doodles here and there, overall the temperature is rising quickly. How fast is too fast? Do we really want to wait to find out, or do we want to slow down our influence on the change?

So far the by-products of trying to move to a greener world seem to be cleaner air and water. Those certainly are terrible things.

Remember climate is worldwide numbers, weather is out your window, your state, your region and so on till it hits worldwide. Then it becomes climate. Thanks.

Obama has little to show for his 2 terms

P

resident Obama’s Tuesday night address to Congress was less about the state of the union than the state of the presidency. And the state of this presidency is spent.

The signs of intellectual exhaustion were everywhere.

Consider just three. After taking credit for success in Syria, raising American stature abroad and prevailing CHARLES against the KRAUTHAMMER Islamic State — one claim more surreal than the next — Obama was forced to repair to his most well-worn talking point: “If you doubt America’s commitment — or mine — to see that justice is done, just ask Osama bin Laden.”

Really? Five years later, that’s all you’ve got?

Indeed, it is. What else can Obama say?

Talk about Crimea? Cite Yemen, Libya, Iraq, the South China Sea, the return of the Taliban?

“Surveys show our standing around the world is higher than when I was elected to this office,” Obama boasted. Surveys, mind you. As if superpower influence is a Miss Universe contest. As if the world doesn’t see our allies adrift, our enemies on the march and our sailors kneeling, hands behind their heads, in front of armed Iranians, then forced to apologize on camera.

On the domestic side, Obama’s agenda was fairly short, in keeping with his lameduck status. It was still startling when he worked up a passion for a great “new moonshot”: curing cancer.

Is there a more hackneyed nationalgreatness cliche than the idea that if we can walk on the moon ... ? Or a more hackneyed facsimile of vision than being “the nation that cures cancer”? Do Obama’s speechwriters not know that it was Richard Nixon who first declared a war on cancer — in 1971?

But to see just how bare is the cupboard of ideas of the nation’s most vaunted liberal visionary, we had to wait for the stunning anachronism that was the speech finale. It was designed for inspiration and uplift. And for some liberal observers, it actually worked. They were thrilled by the soaring tones as Obama called for, yes, a new politics — a post-partisan spirit of mutual understanding, rational discourse and respect for one’s opponents.

Why, it was hope and change all over again. You’d have thought we were back in 2008 with Obama’s moving, stirring promise of a new and higher politics that had young people swooning in the aisles and a TV anchor thrilling up the leg — and gave Obama the White House.

Or even further back to 2004, when Obama electrified the nation with his Democratic convention speech: “There’s not a black America and white America and Latino America and Asian America; there’s the United States of America.”

Tuesday night, Obama did an undisguised, almost phrase-for-phrase reprise of that old promise. Earnestly, he urged us to “see ourselves not, first and foremost, as black or white, or Asian or Latino, not as gay or straight, immigrant or native born, not as Democrats or Republicans, but as Americans first.”

On cue, various commentators were moved by this sermon summoning our better angels. Good grief. I can understand falling for this 12 years ago. But now? A cheap self-quotation, a rhetorical mulligan, from a man who had two presidential terms to act on that transformative vision and instead gave us the most divisive, partisan, tendentious presidency since Nixon.

Rational discourse and respect for one’s opponents? This is a man who campaigned up and down the country throughout 2011 and 2012 saying that he cares about posterity, Republicans only about power.

In a final touch of irony, Obama included in his wistful rediscovery of a more elevated politics an expression of reverence for, of all things, how “our founders distributed power between ... branches of government.” This after years of repeatedly usurping Congress’ legislative power with unilateral executive orders and regulations on everything from criminal justice to climate change to immigration (already halted by the courts).

There is wisdom to the 22nd Amendment. After two terms, presidents are spent. Nothing shows it like a State of the Union valedictory repeating the hollow promises of the yesteryear candidate — as if the intervening presidency had never occurred.

2016 GMC Terrain Denali: strong design, professional grade precision ROAD TEST

by Larry Lark Herald Special Sections Writer

I

t’s easy to forget that GMC has been in the truck business since 1902. I can remember riding shotgun in my grandpa’s early 60’s GMC pickup truck with three-on-the-tree and thinking I was sitting on top of the world.

Fast forward some 50-odd years and I was behind the wheel of GMC’s 2016 Terrain Denali all-wheel drive, compact sports utility vehicle, which also comes in SL, SLE and SLT versions.

The Terrain seats five adults, provides all-wheel drive functionality and includes GM’s exclusive “MultiFlex” sliding rear seat. It offers 31.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seat and 63.9 cubic feet when the rear seat is folded down.

Let’s just say the Terrain Denali was a welcomed addition in the driveway during the week of Christmas, toting five passengers and plenty of gifts over the fields and through the woods to grandmother’s house we went. In reality, it was more like the Mukilteo Speedway, Boeing Freeway and Airport Road – but you get the picture.

First introduced in 2010, the Terrain is in its sixth

year of production and is GMC’s second-best selling vehicle behind only the Sierra pickup. New features for 2016 include front and rear fascias, new grille designs, LED daytime running lights and a power dome hood.

Blind-zone alert and rear cross-traffic alert are now offered on the SLE and SLT models.

“The updates for the 2016 Terrain make one of the strongest designs in the compact SUV market even more compelling,” said Helen Emsley, executive director, Global GMC Design. “They create a more contemporized appearance rooted in GMC’s professional grade precision.”

The Terrain Denali offers unique exterior and interior appointments, exclusive 19-inch aluminum

wheels, and design cues to set it apart from competitors. Dual-flow dampers are exclusive to the Terrain Denali’s suspension system, providing a smoother ride and improved handling by controlling suspension dampening across a broader range of driving conditions.

The standard Ecotec 2.4-liter direct-injected engine delivers an EPA-estimated 23 mpg on the highway (FWD models). A direct-injected 3.6L V-6 is available and delivers best-in-class 301 horsepower and 272 lb.-ft. of torque. The V-6 engine also enables a trailering capacity of up to 3,500 pounds.

Available GMC Intellilink offers OnStar with 4G LTE connectivity and a built-in Wi-Fi hotspot. It provides

a mobile hub for drivers and passengers to stay connected. The hotspot is on whenever the car is on and comes with a three-month/3GB data trial (whichever comes first).

Other goodies include a navigation system, AM/ FM/XM stereo system, heated and power seats including lumbar support for the driver, USB port and more.

Terrain also offers a programmable power lift-gate (standard on Denali, available on SLT), with a memory function that stops the lift-gate at a chosen height to help shorter drivers or accommodate low garage heights.

The Terrain Denali offers additional safety features including features rear-park assist, forward-collision alert and lane-departure warning. Q

Honda Civic:

From plain vanilla to hot adrenalin

By FRANK A. AUKOFER

U.S. turbocharged engine from Honda, a 170-hp, 1.5-liter four with 162 lb.-ft. of torque and city/highway/combined mpg of 31/42/35. Unfortunately for now, that engine is available only with Honda’s continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), which despite its contribution to fuel economy may turn off some enthusiasts.

A CVT, unlike a conventional automatic transmission, has no shift points. It uses internal belts and pulleys that seamlessly change gear ratios. Under hard acceleration, to some ears, the CVT sounds as if the transmission is slipping. That’s more obvious in the new Civic when the Sport mode is selected for quicker response.

However, in Drive it is mostly unobtrusive.

Though Honda officials dodged the question of whether there would be other Civics with manual gearboxes, it seems obvious that they will proliferate, depending on the demand. The Si and R Type will almost certainly offer them.

Honda’s Civic dates back to its introduction to 1973, when the company delivered a tiny two-door economy car.

Where the new 10th-generation model especially shines is in its chassis rigidity and handling accuracy: The steering has a firm,

AutoWriters Associates

A

t the Olympics, a floor assistant raises the bar for pole vaulting and the high jump. The 2016 Honda Civic sedan does the same thing for compact sedan buyers. And that’s just the beginning.

The all-new Civic, which was benchmarked against high-performance European sports sedans from BMW and Audi, promises to deliver other variations with even better capabilities for 2016, including a sleek hatchback sedan that resembles the Audi A7, plus a coupe, an Si sport model, and even a new Type R that Honda says raise the adrenalin level even higher.

Rarely has a car been so transformed between model years; in this case morphing from a plain and reliable compact family car to an exciting roadrunner.

It does all this at prices that are lower than the average price of many new cars sold today. Even the base trim, the LX, with a sticker price well below $20,000, tempts the enthusiast with a fluid-shifting six-speed manual gearbox mated to the base 158-horsepower, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine.

That powerplant is new, as is the first

precise feedback and feel not unlike that of a Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan.

At speed on twisting mountain roads, the Civic takes an accurate set around curves, corners flatly with negligible body roll, and delivers a taut but supple ride.

The brakes complement the athleticism with a solid pedal feel.

This sophisticated chassis engineering comes with every Civic, starting with the entry-level model. All the rest is frosting and there’s plenty of it.

Five variants start with the 2.0-liter LX manual and automatic models. Though they come with steel wheels and attractive-though-plastic wheel covers, they are anything but bare bones. All Civics come with full safety equipment, automatic climate control, and an electronic parking brake; this last feature facilitated the design of an unusually functional center console.

The instrument panel, with a pleasant design and quality materials, is the same across the lineup. Higher-priced models have leather-wrapped steering wheels but the lower-priced vinyl-covered variants have their own satisfying texture and feel.

Next up are the EX, EX-T, and EX-L, which mark the dividing line between

the base 2.0-liter engine and the 1.5-liter turbo. The EX comes with the 2.0 and the EX-T and EX-L both have the 1.5-liter standard. All are equipped with the CVT. At the top of the line is the Touring model with all the goodies Civic has to offer.

That includes forward collision and lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, automatic emergency braking, road departure mitigation, and adaptive cruise control. Civics do not offer blind spot warning because all models (except the base LXs) come with Honda’s innovative LaneWatch, which displays a panoramic view of the right rear area on the center screen when the right turn signal is activated.

Inside, the Civic delivers long-distance comfort for four. Front seats are supportive and comfortable, though with limited adjustments on the manual seats. Even the center rear seat, usually a punishing perch in most cars, is almost tolerable. There’s plenty of head and knee room, and the trunk, with 15 cubic feet of volume, is large for a compact car. The rear seatback folds almost flat for extra cargo.

There are plenty of clichĂŠs available to describe the 2016 Honda Civic. They are not needed: It is now the class of the class.

T

he 2016 Chevrolet Volt Extended Range Vehicle displays an all-new sleek exterior design, weighs less, is 12 percent more efficient, and provides more range (53 miles EV city and 420 miles with combined EV and gas engine based on a full charge and full 8.9 gallon gas tank).

Top speed is electronically limited to 98 mph, it is capable of zipping from 0-60 mph in 8.4 seconds, and the Volt now accommodates five passengers, with available heated seats. Battery capacity has been increased to 18.4 kWh utilizing 192 cells (a reduction of 96 from the outgoing model) with a weight reduction of more than 20 pounds.

The hatchback is available in two trim levels: the base 2LT and Premiere 2LZ. Now weighing in at 3,543 pounds, its weight loss is due primarily to the reduced size and weight of the electric drive motor system. The Volt rolls on Michelin Energy Saver A/S 215/50 R17 allseason tires mounted on five canopener-bright-spoke alloy wheels with painted pockets.

The Volt’s extended-range propulsion comes from a front transversely mounted 1.5-liter (up from 1.4-liters), DOHC, 16-valve cast aluminum inline four-cylinder gas engine with continuously variable intake and exhaust cam phaser, direct injection, and elec-

tronic throttle control, combined with a 110 kW Voltec electric drive twin motor system that produces a total of 111 kW/149 horsepower and 294 lb.-ft. of torque.

Visually, the new Volt’s exterior presents an all-new, athletic persona, incorporating windtunnel-refined, Chevrolet performance vehicle DNA-inspired cues, while active grille shutters balance design with functional efficiency. The shape is one of flowing dynamicism, sporting gracefully carved body sides and fenders that blend harmoniously into the hood, while the frontal look retains Volt’s iconic identity, featuring bright sculpted upper and lower grille elements.

Inside, the Volt exudes a more inviting and upscale feel, with controls and switchgear positioned intuitively for operational simplicity, accented by blue ambient lighting. Volt retains its signature dual digital color displays with an 8-inch diagonal reconfigurable screen in the instrument cluster. An additional 8-inch diagonal touchscreen, located in the center of the instrument panel, controls the new Chevrolet MyLink system, which is compatible with Apple CarPlay. This connectivity system puts iPhone features (iPhone 5 and later) on the display, allowing drivers to make calls, send and receive messages, and enjoy music right from the touchscreen or by voice via Siri. Chevrolet’s 4G LTE Wi-Fi is also available.

New safety features for 2016

2016 Chevy Volt:

53 miles electric drive range include available lane-keeping assistance, rear cross-traffic alert, and forward-collision alert with automatic front braking.

My test 2016 Volt was in 2LZ trim and wore an exterior finish of Bright Silver metallic, complemented by a two-tone Charcoal and Warm Brandy leather interior. The base price was set at $33,145, while the as-tested sticker totaled $33,995. This price does not factor in a federal tax credit of $7,500 or any other state, regional, or local tax credits that may be available.

I was a fan of the first-generation Chevrolet Volt when it bowed as a 2011 model. There was some initial controversy regarding its categorization; some referred to it as a hybrid, while some called it an electric vehicle. In reality, it was always a vehicle capable

of operating on pure electricity, while offering added security and range from its supplemental gas engine. It still is, but with major improvements realized in the 2016 second-generation models.

While looks are also always a consideration in a vehicle’s appeal, the real test of any vehicle, of course, is how it performs.

This latest iteration Volt gets high marks on both counts. On a drive from beneath California’s iconic Golden Gate bridge, up the coast to Point Reyes, over to Petaluma, and back to our Cavallo Point base, the car performed flawlessly, running exclusively in electric mode for the first 53 miles and then switching over seamlessly to the gas engine.

Acceleration is now quicker; handling is more agile and stable, with excellent steering feedback.

The ride quality is also more comfortable with a vast improvement in the seating support. The Volt is quieter as well. And, although now billed as a five-passenger vehicle, the middle rear passenger is forced to straddle the T-shaped battery pack that runs aft through the middle of the car.

Charging options are now improved as well, with GPS location-based technology. The 120-volt portable charging cord is now longer, easier to use and store, and may be padlocked in while charging. Charge port illumination is available for easier nighttime charging. Charge time is 13 hours at 120V/12 amps or 4.5 hours on 240V. The new, improved Volt is lovable even if you weren’t a fan of the original, and it costs less now than before.

SNOHOMISH COUNTY COUNCIL Snohomish County, Washington NOTICE OF ENACTMENT NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that on Monday, January 11, 2016, the Snohomish County Council enacted Ordinance No. 15-102.

A summary of the proposed ordinance follows: ORDINANCE NO. 15-102 RELATING TO REGULATION OF STORMWATER; AMENDING AND REPEALING PORTIONS OF CHAPTER 30.63A OF THE SNOHOMISH COUNTY CODE (SCC) AND REPEALING CHAPTER 30.63C SCC IN RESPONSE TO THE COUNTY’S 2014 NPDES PERMIT Sections 1-2. Adopt recitals, findings of fact, and conclusions, and states the Council bases its findings and conclusions on the entire record of the Council.

Section 3. Amends SCC 30.63A.010 to clarify that the purpose of the chapter is to regulate stormwater discharges from all new development and redevelopment to prevent and control adverse impacts of drainage and stormwater on the public health, safety, and general welfare, consistent with the provisions of the Federal Clean Water Act; and to require the use of LID BMPs where feasible, as defined in the Drainage Manual.

Section 4. Amends SCC 30.63A.100 to update citations to the code chapters, manuals and standards that constitute the county’s stormwater regulations.

Section 5. Amends SCC 30.63A.110 to remove reference to chapter 30.63C SCC and the 2005 Depar tment of Ecology Stormwater Management Manual for Western Washington.

Section 6. Amends SCC 30.63A.120 to remove citations to chapter 30.63C SCC. Section 7. Amends SCC 30.63A.140 to clarify that use of the state’s Highway Runoff Manual, as deemed equivalent by Ecology to the 2014 Ecology Stormwater Manual, may be used to meet the requirements of chapters 30.63A and 30.63B SCC for public road construction projects.

Section 8. Amends SCC 30.63A.150 to remove citations to chapter 30.63C SCC and update reference to the County’s Engineering Design and Development Standards (EDDS).

Section 9. Amends SCC 30.63A.160 to remove reference to chapter 30.63C SCC and update reference the EDDS. Section 10. Amends SCC 30.63A.170 to clarify that modifications and waivers from the stormwater-applicable requirements of the EDDS shall be processed under SCC 30.63A.830 through SCC 30.63A.842.

Section 11. Amends SCC 30.63A.200 to update code citations, to replace the term “impervious surface” with the new term “hard surfaces,” and to clarify that road maintenance projects exempt from the stor mwater requirements may include pavement maintenance activities provided that the road prism is not expanded.

Section 12. Adds a new section, SCC 30.63A.210, to provide an exception from the requirements of SCC 30.63A.525 relating to onsite stormwater management feasibility analysis and on-site stormwater management BMPs, from the recording of drainage easements for on-site stormwater management BMPs pursuant to SCC 30.63A.595, and from the requirements related to operation and maintenance manuals for on-site stormwater management BMPs in SCC 30.63A.575(4). This exception applies to new development or redevelopment activities that result in less than 10,000 square feet of new, replaced, or new plus replaced hard surfaces where no portion of the project site will drain, either directly or indirectly, to any existing or planned municipal separate storm sewer system (MS4) provided that the proposed project occurs outside of all critical areas (except for floodplains and aquifer recharge areas), buffers and setbacks from critical areas.

Criteria that must be met to demonstrate that a project site does not drain, either directly or indirectly, to any existing or planned MS4 are described therein.

Section 13. Amends SCC 30.63A.300 to update code citations, to replace the terms “impervious surface” with the new term “hard surfaces” and “pervious surface” with “vegetation areas,” and to recognize the exception provided in SCC 30.63A.210 when assessing drainage review thresholds and determining which minimum requirements apply to new development.

Section 14. Amends SCC 30.63A.310 to update code citations, to replace the terms “impervious surface” with the new term “hard surfaces” and “pervious surface” with “vegetation areas,” to delete a por tion of subsection (4) concerning sizing of stormwater treatment facilities, and to recognize the exception provided in SCC 30.63A.210 when assessing drainage review thresholds and determining which minimum requirements apply to redevelopment.

The director may allow the minimum requirements to be met for an equivalent area of flow and pollution characteristics within the same site.

Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest Snohomish County, WA Sultan Roads Decommissioning and Improvement Project The Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) for the proposed Sultan Roads Decommissioning and Improvement Project is now available for public review and comment. The agency is seeking comments that the final EA should address. The project would improve and put in storage approximately 0.5 miles of system road.

Approximately 4.1 miles of system and non-system roads would be decommissioned. These roads are not currently accessible to the public. An alternative to the proposed action would convert 2 miles of non-system road to a trail for Snohomish County PUD to use and maintain under a special use authorization. The legal description of the project area is: T29N, R8E, Sec. 22, 23, and 25-28; and T29N, R9E, Sec. 30, W.M.

Comments may submitted by letter, telephone, email, fax, or office visit. Emailed comments are preferred: comments-pacificnorthwest-mtbaker-snoqualmieskykomish@fs.fed.us.

Comments received in response to this notice, including names and addresses, will be part of the Project Record and available for public review. Email comments must be in email message, .txt, .doc, .rtf, or .pdf format. The publication date in the newspaper of record is the exclusive means for calculating the comment period.

WIAA reclassification affects Silvertips look to continue number of local high schools winning ways on the road Glacier Peak, Snohomish, and Mountlake Terrace are among those changing classification for the next cycle.

By David Krueger Herald Writer

Glacier Peak is moving up, while its crosstown rival is moving down.

Glacier Peak was the final high school to make the cut for 4A according to enrollment figures for the 2016-20 classification cycle released Thursday by the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association.

The classifications are used to determine which district, regional and state tournaments a school is eligible for.

A school’s classification is based on enrollment numbers in grades 9-11 as reported to the Office of Public Instruction (OSPI) for the months of January, February, March, April, May, October and November.

The figures were released to WIAA members in November, and each of the 384 schools was given a month to review them and decide if it wanted to opt up by the Jan. 13 deadline.

“We said we were going to stay where we fell, and (4A is) where we fell,” Glacier Peak athletic director Mark Albertine said. “In

the end, we fell where I thought we were going to fall.”

Glacier Peak, which averaged 1,343.29 students over the seven-month period, narrowly edged out Redmond (1,343.16) as the final 4A school. Other than the 22 schools that chose to opt up, Glacier Peak will be the smallest 4A school in the state.

“The majority of coaches wanted to opt up and be 4A anyway,” Albertine said. “However, it wasn’t a super majority, which we all felt was necessary for us to agree to our decision. So we decided that we’d play were we fell.”

EVERETT — The Everett Silvertips insist they don’t prepare differently for road games than for those played at Xfinity Arena.

Still, you can’t help but notice the recent swath of success the Tips have cut across other venues going back to the very end of November. Including their Nov. 29 victory at Spokane the Tips are 9-11-0 in their last 11 road contests.

“We don’t do one single thing different because we’re playing on the road — not one strategy changes,” head coach Kevin Constantine reiterated Thursday.

“What we try to do is take pride in doing exactly the same things on

Perhaps it is simply a matter of the Tips (24-12-2-2, 52 points) getting hot at the same time they were scheduled for a number of games on the road. Yet the Tips are just 2-4-1-0 in seven home games following the Nov. 29 win at Spokane. If you include the See SILVERTIPS, Page C6

Mariners ink Martin to 1-year contract

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — The Mariners avoided a possible salary-arbitration hearing with outfielder Leonys Martin by reaching a one-year deal for $4.15 million Thursday.

The Mariners obtained Martin with pitcher Anthony Bass from Texas in a Nov. 16 trade for reliever Tom Wilhelmsen, outfielder James Jones and utilityman Pat Kivlehan.

Arizona forward Ryan Anderson (12) vies for the ball with Washington forwards Matisse Thybulle (4) and Marquese Chriss during the second half of the Wildcats’ 99-67 victory over the Huskies on Thursday in Tucson, Ariz.

Arizona thumps UW Huge second half propels Wildcats

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

TUCSON, Ariz. — For 20 minutes, the Washington Huskies implied that Thursday night’s game at the McKale Center might be another classic, a tit-for-tat reminder of how these affairs against the Arizona Wildcats used to go.

Then the second half started, and it was a reminder, indeed. A reminder that the gap between 18th-ranked Arizona and these Huskies, resilient as they were in three victories to begin the Pac-12 schedule, might still be about as expansive as the desert that borders either side of Interstate-10.

The Huskies were glad to traverse that path back to Tempe, where they will reboot and hope for a split of this road trip on Saturday at Arizona State.

They didn’t seem to know what hit them in the second half of this 99-67 trouncing, which Arizona achieved by outscoring the Huskies 55-26 after halftime with an unrelenting torrent of dunks, 3-pointers and more dunks.

Do the math: the Huskies trailed just 44-41 after the first half.

Then …

Arizona scored the first seven points of the second half.

Arizona scored 14 of the first 20 points of the second half.

Arizona scored 26 of the first 33 points of the second half, and the game was over.

Well, not actually over. They let the teams keep playing until the final buzzer. And at no point before that did the

Wildcats stop attacking the rim, stop dunking, stop drawing fouls, stop scoring and scoring and scoring against a helpless UW defense.

In the end, UW coach Lorenzo Romar identified a single bright spot: “That it ended.”

“They just did whatever they wanted in the second half,” Romar said.

“We didn’t think we were going to come out flat like that,” said UW forward Marquese Chriss, who scored 11 of his 13 points in the first half.

“They just had way more energy than us,” said senior guard Andrew Andrews, the Pac-12’s leading scorer who managed only nine points, his first single-digit output in the last 27 games. “I felt like we came out, we were trying to play hard, do the right things, try to get stops, but they just made so many plays.”

And the Wildcats made 70.4 percent of their second-half field-goal attempts — 19-of-27, and 7-of-9 from 3-point range — and made 60.3 percent for the game.

Ryan Anderson led with 21 points and nine rebounds.

Kaleb Tarczewski raged inside for 16 points and 13 rebounds, and might have had the play of the game when he drew Chriss’ fifth foul on a two-handed dunk atop the freshman’s head. Mark Tollefsen, starting in place of injured guard Allonzo Trier — who, by the way, is Arizona’s leading scorer — had 11 points, including a pair of 3-pointers on consecutive possessions in the second half that gave Arizona a 64-47 lead, its largest of the game at the time.

Even in the first half, Arizona attacked UW’s interior, and forced Chriss, Noah Dickerson and Malik Dime into

foul trouble. Still, the Huskies trailed by only three points at halftime, and figured they would continue competing thereafter.

Then, they didn’t. Washington made only 30.3 percent of its second-half field-goal attempts after making 51.5 percent in the first half, and Romar thought that might have contributed to the Huskies’ defensive slippage.

Arizona (14-3, 2-2 in Pac-12) finished with nine dunks, 12 layups, 50 points in the paint, and outrebounded the Huskies 43-26.

“As we came down, possession after possession, ball not going in the basket, you could see us slowly, defensively, start to break down,” Romar said.

“But they had a lot to do with that too. They created some really good mismatches against us, and with us in foul trouble, there wasn’t a whole lot we could do.”

It didn’t help that Andrews appeared to sprain his ankle late in the first half and was hobbled a bit in the second, though he finished the game.

Romar said he thinks the senior guard will be OK for Saturday’s game at ASU, and Andrews, limping some as he walked toward his postgame interview, said the same.

There’s probably a metaphor in there somewhere. But the Huskies (11-5, 3-1) swear they won’t let this stinker seep into their next task.

“We don’t have that type of team,” Andrews said. “Our team is built around high-character guys, high-will guys. We just dropped a big one and we got embarrassed, so we’ve got to come out with some passion and fire at Arizona State.”

For 40 minutes, this time.

BYU heroics sink Gonzaga

By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

SPOKANE — The deep front line that No. 25 Gonzaga was counting on this season was not there on Thursday night, and the Zags suffered a rare home loss, 69-68 to BYU. Center Przemek Karnowski is out for the season with a back injury. Against BYU, forward Domantas Sabonis was in foul trouble the entire game and limited to five points. Forward Kyle Wiltjer tried to carry the team himself, scoring 35 points and grabbing 10 rebounds, but it wasn’t enough as Gonzaga (13-4, 5-1 West Coast Conference) saw a seven-game winning streak snapped.

“Domas got into foul trouble and we had to pull him out,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said.

“He’s a huge part of what we are.”

As a result, BYU outscored Gonzaga in the paint 40-20, and won the rebound battle 41-39.

It was the second straight year that BYU beat Gonzaga in Spokane, dealing the Zags a rare home loss in a West Coast Conference game.

BYU was having a poor game shooting, and trailed Gonzaga for much of the game.

Then the Cougars got hot

late, and freshman guard Nick Emery hit a 3-pointer with 1:38 left that provided the winning points. It was his only basket of the game.

Kyle Collinsworth scored 20 points and Chase Fischer added 18 for BYU (13-5, 4-1).

“We just stayed positive and kept fighting,” Collinsworth said.

Picking up a rare victory at Gonzaga last year — it broke the Zags’ 41-game home winning streak — gave them confidence they could do it again, even as BYU spent most of the game shooting in the 30 percent range, according to Collinsworth.

The confidence extended to Emery, he said.

“Nick just stayed in the present,” Collinsworth said. “As soon as he had that ball he just knocked it down.”

BYU missed its first 12 3-point attempts of the game, but made three in the final 8 minutes, including the game-winner.

“Our effort and energy was there the whole game,” Collinsworth said. “We are playing better as the season goes on.”

Wiltjer is the leading scorer in the WCC at 21.5 points per game and has reached 20 points 11 times this season.

But he missed a free throw with 8 seconds left that would have tied the game.

“It was really disappointing,” he said of the loss. “We really couldn’t get stops” late in the game.

Neither team shot well from the field, with BYU hitting 41 percent and Gonzaga just 36.8 percent.

Fischer’s 3-pointer, the first of the game for BYU after 12 misses, brought the Cougars within 56-54 with 8:33 left.

Wiltjer replied with a 3-pointer and a long jumper to keep the Zags ahead.

Collinsworth hit three straight baskets as BYU got within 63-61 with 3:40 left.

Fischer completed a threepoint play to put the Cougars ahead 64-63.

Kyle Dranginis scored on a long jumper to put Gonzaga up by one, but Fischer scored again to put BYU ahead.

After Eric McClellan hit two free throws for Gonzaga, Emery made his 3-pointer to put BYU ahead 69-67 with 1:32 left.

The BYU defense buckled down and Gonzaga could not get a clean shot. Wiltjer made one of two free throws with 8 seconds left to close the scoring and BYU’s Nate Austin blocked a shot in the final seconds.

Arizona St. defeats WSU Associated Press TEMPE, Ariz. — Tra Holder scored 20 points, helping Arizona State and coach Bobby Hurley pick up their first Pac-12 win of the season with an 84-73 win over Washington State on Thursday night.

Kodi Justice scored 11 of 16 of his points in the second half for ASU (11-6, 1-3 Pac-12) and Willie Atwood added 15.

Ike Iroegbu led the Cougars (9-7, 1-3) with 18 points and Josh Hawkinson, the Pac-12’s leading rebounder, added 15 points and 12 rebounds after being saddled with three fouls in the first half.

WSU has lost 5 of its last 7 games.

Arizona State took advantage of a Washington State scoring drought that lasted more than eight minutes of the first half.

The Cougars went from a 13-10 lead at the 13:52 mark to a 27-13 deficit after a pair of free throws from Holder with 5:43 to go until halftime.

Holder also hit a pair of 3s during that stretch. He became the ASU first player since James Harden in 2007-2008 to score 20 points in five straight games.

The Sun Devils led by as many as 17 points in the first half, taking advantage of 15 fouls in the opening 20 minutes by the Cougars.

ASU made 14 of 18 free throws.

The Cougars, down 40-25 at halftime, scored the first 10 points of the second half after season lows for first-half points, field goals made (9) and made 3s (0 for 3).

They made their first two 3s of the second half by Iroegbu to cut ASU’s lead to 40-35. But the Sun Devils responded with an 8-0 run to take control again. Goodman tipped in a miss after Justice hit a 3, and Arizona State was able to stay in command for the rest of the way.

WSU couldn’t cut in to the lead much, and Atwood threw down a dunk with 8:05 left after Justice stole the ball and passed ahead to Atwood for a 63-52 lead.

Atwood drilled a baseline 3 for a 73-56 lead with just over five minutes left.

Oregon 77, Utah 59 SALT LAKE CITY — Dillon Brooks had 23 points and eight rebounds while Casey Benson scored a careerhigh 15 points to power the Oregon Ducks past Utah on Thursday night.

The Ducks(14-3, 3-1 Pac 12) never trailed in notching their third straight conference win after dropping their league opener to Oregon State.

Brandon Taylor led Utah (12-5, 1-3) with 12 points as the Ducks neutralized the Utes’ interior offense. Sophomore center Jakob Poeltl made just one field goal and had seven points in Utah’s first home loss of the season.

The Ducks shot 55 percent for the game while the Utes connected on just 34 percent of their shots, though many came from close range.

The Utes made their first four shots of the second half to trim the Ducks lead to six points. Jordan Loveridge’s 3-pointer made it 50-44 with 17:20 left in the game.

From there, the Ducks held Utah scoreless for almost eight minutes.

Stanford 77, California 71 STANFORD, Calif. — Marcus Allen scored 10 of his 16 points over the final 5½ minutes — all on free throws — and Stanford held on to beat California on Thursday night.

Rosco Allen had 22 points and 10 rebounds for the Cardinal (10-6, 3-2 Pac-12), who have won four straight against their Bay Area rivals. Dorian Pickens scored 14 points and Marcus Sheffield added 11.

Stanford, which went into the game shooting only 66.8 percent from the free throw line, scored its final 13 points from the stripe to complete a comeback after falling behind early in the second half.

rushing among quarterbacks, and he scored another 10 TDs with his legs.

Even Wilson was impressed with Newton’s season.

“I think when it comes to MVP, he probably deserves it,” said Wilson, who told Carolina media earlier this week that if he had an MVP vote he’d vote for Newton. “They’re 15-1, that’s hard to do. I think he’s had a great year. There’s been a lot of great players this year, but they asked me a question and I think he probably deserves it.”

But while all the MVP momentum seems to be swinging Newton’s way, the numbers may actually back Wilson.

Wilson had a career season of his own.

He went 329-for-483 for 4,024 yards and 34 touchdowns versus eight interceptions. More importantly, he had significant edges on Newton in completion percentage (68.1-59.8), yards per attempt (8.3-7.8) and passer rating (110.1-99.4).

Based on pure numbers, Wilson had the better season throwing the football.

While Newton also can point to his running numbers, it’s not like Wilson is far behind in that regard. Wilson finished third in the league in rushing among quarterbacks with 554 yards, and he actually gained more yards per attempt than Newton (5.4-4.8), though he scored only one touchdown to Newton’s 10.

“For sure,” Seahawks receiver Doug Baldwin answered when asked is Wilson deserves MVP consideration. “Russell Wilson is playing at a very high level, he’s been playing at a very high level. I think he would definitely garner some attention for that.”

But regardless of how the MVP voting turns out, both teams know they have their hands full this Sunday with the opposing quarterback.

Newton presents a challenge just in terms of his sheer size and speed. It’s one thing trying to bring down a standard NFL quarterback when he runs the ball, it’s another thing trying to bring down one who’s built like a linebacker and runs like a receiver.

“He’s just a bigger Russell Wilson, I think, which makes him a little more difficult to tackle, I guess,” Seahawks defensive end Cliff Avril said about Newton. “He’s just a big guy, a big guy who can do a lot of different things. He’s a heck of an athlete, he presents a lot of issues. When you think you have him, what you’d do with a normal quarterback, you’ve got to actually bring your hips through with that big guy. He presents a lot of different problems.”

Meanwhile, the Panthers are also concerned with Wilson’s running ability. Of late Wilson has done most of his damage throwing from the pocket. But throughout his first four seasons Wilson has made a living by eluding the rush, getting outside the pocket and improvising throws downfield. That was never more evident than in last Sunday’s 10-9 victory at Minnesota in the wild-card round. His 35-yard pass completion to Tyler Lockett, which came after the ball was snapped 15 yards behind him, led to the game’s only touchdown and was largely responsible for the Seahawks winning.

“This is a guy who’s been a very elusive player, he’s made a lot of plays,” Panthers coach Ron Rivera said when addressing Carolina media this week. “And I’ve said it before, I think he’s one of the better quarterbacks in this league in terms of winning. To me it’s really about winning, and he’s proven that.”

Both players got better as the season progressed, too. Over the final seven games Wilson received a lot of attention for throwing 24 touchdowns with just one interception. But Newton was nearly Wilson’s equal, throwing 20 TDs against one interception over the same span.

Now they get the chance to settle the MVP debate on the field, mano a mano.

“Seattle doesn’t owe us anything, we don’t owe Seattle anything,” Newton said. “It’s going to be a hard-nosed game. They’re a physical team, that we know. Playing those guys a lot in the last couple years, we know that it’s going to be a game to watch.”

And no one will be worth watching more than the quarterbacks.

But the Seahawks beat the Cards 36-6 on Jan. 3. The luster will be off; it won’t be the same as Carolina, which beat the Seahawks 27-23 Oct. 18 upon the sacred rug of the Clink.

The AFC usually has a case with New England that every postseason game is a Super Bowl equivalent. But the defending champs, damaged by injuries, have lost four of their previous six games.

Even coach Bill Belichick had a black eye this week.

The rest of the AFC field has more question marks than exclamation points.

Carolina and Seattle are the best teams. That’s it. Move the Super Bowl’s hyperventilated halftime show across the country, and let’s get it on.

The edge for this game was set with Carolina’s win over Seattle. It looked to some then to be the final blow to the teensy dynasty begun by the Seahawks under coach Pete Carroll.

Wagner key against Panthers’ ‘challenging’ rushing attack

Carroll on Rams move

RENTON — When the Seattle Seahawks take on the Carolina Panthers on Sunday in the NFC divisional playoffs, they’ll be facing what Seattle coach Pete Carroll described as the most diverse running game in the NFL. Therefore, it will be good for the Seahawks that they’ll have their No. 1 run-stopper available this time around.

Seattle middle linebacker Bobby Wagner did not play when the teams squared off in Week 6, a game won by Carolina 27-23. The Seahawks are hoping the presence of Wagner, who sat that game out with a pectoral injury, will help tilt the scales.

“It’s going to be great,” Wagner said about being able to face Carolina this time. “I’ve got an opportunity to actually make plays in the game. Last time I had to watch and it’s definitely hard to watch your brothers out there. I wanted to help them, but you can’t, so I’m going to be able to get out there and help them.”

With Wagner, who finished second on the team with 114 tackles and received his second Pro Bowl nod, available, the Seahawks will be back in their normal configuration. In Week 6 against the Panthers, weakside linebacker K.J. Wright took Wagner’s normal spot in the middle, with Kevin Pierre-Louis playing in Wright’s position. That meant the Seahawks essentially had back-ups at two of their three linebacker positions. Everyone will be back in their normal spots Sunday.

That’s good news for Seattle, as the Seahawks will need all hands on deck to deal with Carolina’s rushing attack. It all begins with quarterback Cam Newton.

Newton led the NFL in rushing among quarterbacks, gaining 636 yards on 132 carries and scoring 10 touchdowns.

The Panthers are also expecting running back Jonathan Stewart back Sunday. Stewart, a native of Lacey, missed Carolina’s previous three games because of a foot injury. However Stewart, who gained 989 yards in route to being named to the Pro Bowl, has

returned to practice and should be able to play against the Seahawks.

Add in Pro Bowl fullback Mike Tolbert and you get a Panthers running game that finished second in the league in rushing at 142.6 yards per contest.

“There’s nobody that does more stuff, and it’s basically because the quarterback is such a dynamic part of it,” Carroll said. “They’re willing to run the quarterback inside, outside, lead plays, powers, all of the read stuff as well. This is the most difficult offense that we face, and it’s really because Cam is such an adept player. A lot of teams have some plays that they use, but nobody relies on the quarterback to run like they do. He’s got 10 touchdowns rushing this year, and those aren’t quarterback sneaks at the goal line. They’re from all over the place. It’s the most challenging.”

The Panthers ran for 135 yards against the Seahawks in Week 6, which is 53 more yards than Seattle allowed on average this season. The Seahawks are hoping having Wagner back helps

The NFL’s owners voted Tuesday to approve the Rams’ relocation from St. Louis to Los Angeles beginning next season. Carroll, who has ties to the Los Angeles area from his time coaching at USC, sounded pleased about the move.

“I think it’s an exciting thing,” Carroll said.

“It’s an exciting time for the people in Southern California, for one. I’m sure people are excited for the future of the franchise and all that. It’s an extraordinary transition that they’re going to make, and not knowing the next level of it, too, it’s still fascinating. I think it’s an enormous challenge, we’ll watch and see how that goes.

“For us, I think it’s great,” Carroll continued. “I love that we’re playing in the West, and for all of the California guys it’s fun to have a chance to play down there in our division. We’ll enjoy that part of it. It’s been coming for so long, they needed to just get it done. It’s been 20 years or something it’s been out there. It’s amazing that it’s finally come all the way through it. It sounds like an incredible plan that Mr. (Stan) Kroenke has going. It’s going to be enormously valuable for the area, too, for jobs and people working, all that kind of stuff. It’s a really big, big thing. It’s unfortunate for the people of St. Louis, I’m sure.”

Injury update Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch was a full participant in practice for the second straight day. Lynch has missed eight straight games because of an abdominal injury that required surgery. He practiced in full all last week, but unexpectedly did not make the trip with the team when it traveled to play Minnesota this past Sunday. The team is describing Lynch as day-to-day. The only Seattle player who didn’t participate in practice Thursday was fullback Will Tukuafu (hamstring).

Carolina, meanwhile, is also relatively healthy. Cornerback Charles Tillman had to be placed on injured reserve after suffering a torn ACL in his knee during the Panthers’ season-ending 38-10 victory over Tampa Bay. However, in addition to Stewart, Carolina is also expecting to get receiver Ted Ginn (knee) and safety Kurt Coleman (foot) back from injuries. Back-up running back Fozzy Whittaker (ankle) is the only player listed by the Panthers with an injury.

San Francisco hires Chip Kelly as new head coach Associated Press SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Chip Kelly is the offensive-minded, experienced head coach the San Francisco 49ers have long sought, and now he needs to win — right away.

The 49ers hired the former Eagles coach on Thursday, finding the leader CEO Jed York is counting on to turn things around for his once-proud franchise.

Kelly faces the daunting challenge of transforming the Niners into an immediate contender again.

“We are thrilled to announce Chip Kelly as the new head coach of the San Francisco 49ers,” York said in a statement.

“Chip has a proven track record at both the college and NFL levels that

Nice run — his eight postseason wins are one more the franchise accumulated in its history before his arrival — but at 2-4 this fall, the Seahawks season looked cooked.

Especially after Panthers QB Cam Newton directed four scoring drives of 80 or more yards, including two in the fourth quarter. You know, the-king-is-deadlong-live-the-king medieval succession model.

“They had some great plays,” said DE Michael Bennett, attempting to explain what happened that day. “That’s a 15-1 team. They’ve got great players. We learned from our mistakes. We’re not the same team we were.”

Bennett begs to differ about whether there has been a change in NFC leadership.

“You can never count anybody out in the NFL, especially at midseason,” he said. “At the beginning of the season, everybody seems like a Super Bowl contender.

Got to let the season unfold.

When you do, you see the same teams back every year.

It’s not a surprise.

“Those teams seem to

take hold of a season as it goes. I think we’re one of those teams that develop.

We keep going on and on.”

Bennett is right about Seattle’s single-season evolution.

Coach Pete Carroll admitted recently that getting over the devastating loss in the Super Bowl took a long time. Equally vexing was the inexplicable contract holdout of SS Kam Chancellor, who missed the first two games.

Because of injuries, FS Earl Thomas missed the entire preseason. And Bobby Wagner, who joins Carolina’s Luke Kuechly as the game’s best middle linebackers, missed the Panthers game with injury.

Those travails explain much of why the Seahawks defense in the early season gave up 34 points to the Rams, and 27 each to the Packers, Bengals and Panthers.

Because those matters are resolved, and Jeremy Lane has returned to health to fix the weakest defensive position, the cornerback spot opposite Richard Sherman, the Seahawks make the

speaks for itself. We believe strongly that he is the right man to get this team back to competing for championships. I look forward to watching Trent (Baalke) and Chip work closely to build a team that will make us all proud.”

Kelly, who had personnel control with the Eagles and frustrated some of his players, won’t be introduced in a news conference until next week at Levi’s Stadium based on scheduling conflicts and Kelly working to immediately build his staff.

Giants tab McAdoo EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Ben McAdoo needed two seasons to fix the New York Giants offense.

“Those guys are critical pieces to who we are,” said defensive coordinator Kris Richard Thursday. “It’s the relationships, the camaraderie, the experiences and what they’ve been taught over the years — you lose a little of that each time they’re not out there.

“Sure (their absences) made a difference. Now that we’re all here, it matters nothing.”

Well, it did matter for playoff seeding. The Seahawks’ 2-4 start cost them a shot at the division championship, meaning no home postseason games and no bye, big advantages they had the two previous seasons. So they have to win three road games in a row to reach the Super Bowl, after winning just two road playoff games in the 39 previous years of the franchise’s existence.

But after barely surviving the most frigid game in the history of Minnesota, where cold was invented, the Seahawks see a trip to North Carolina and think

That, plus the fact that they have won six road games in a row, as well as the past three games they’ve played in Charlotte, suggests that they are not intimidated by surroundings or circumstances.

Woodard and Holland lead E-W over GP

By David Krueger Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — The Glacier Peak and EdmondsWoodway boys basketball teams squared off three times last season and the Grizzlies were victorious in every contest.

The Warriors haven’t forgotten.

Edmonds-Woodway got a little bit of revenge — and kept its strong 2015-16 season rolling — with a 74-63 victory over the Grizzlies in a Wesco 3A South game Thursday night at Glacier Peak High School.

“Psychologically, three games last year GP got us,” said Edmonds-Woodway head coach Robert Brown.

“They’re good, they do what they do and they do it real well. For our guys to get over that hump helps.”

Edmonds-Woodway, which currently sits alone atop the Wesco 3A South standings at 5-1 (and 12-2 overall), pulled away from Glacier Peak late thanks, in large part, to its defense. The Warriors’ full-court pressure caused several turnovers that Edmonds-Woodway was able to convert into points.

Really, the only thing that could slow down the Warriors’ pace was the numerous

foul calls.

“We just don’t like stoppage,” Brown said. “I try to tell the guys, ‘We’ve got to stop fouling because we keep stopping the game.’ We’re 11 deep, and the more people we can play and rotate the more we wear other people down. The fouls just throw us out of a rhythm.”

Edmonds-Woodway senior David Woodard was in rhythm, with the senior netting 23 points in the contest. Woodard scored nine points from the free throw line in the second half and added seven rebounds.

Tre Holland scored 17 points and Brady Edwards came off the bench to add 10 for the Warriors, who had a one-point advantage going into the fourth quarter before outscoring Glacier Peak 21-11 in the final period.

“That’s a Metro (league) talent team,” said Glacier Peak head coach Brian Hunter.

“That’s not a traditional Wesco talent team. I thought our kids played really, really well. We just had some stretches where we didn’t get shots and they got shots.

“I think it was a fairly highquality Wesco game tonight,” Hunter continued. “I think both teams made plays. I was proud of our kids for some of the plays that they made.”

Glacier Peak’s Zach Hatch helped the Grizzlies keep pace with 22 points in the contest.

Bobby Martin scored 18 — 10 of which came in the first half — and Brendan Tetrault had 11 for Glacier Peak (2-4 league, 8-6 overall).

“I thought Bobby Martin played a solid, strong game,” Hunter said. “It was good to see Bobby do that. I thought Zach Hatch had some moments where he started to feel like himself.”

The win over the Grizzlies completed the first round of league games for EdmondsWoodway, which suffered a two-point loss to Mountlake Terrace in its only league defeat. Brown knows that the Wesco 3A South teams are going to be coming after Edmonds-Woodway as the season goes down to the wire.

“The Wesco South is so much better this year,” Brown said. “It’s so much older and more experienced. Every game is important because every game is a fight. It’s just such a better game, every game, this year. There’s no easy games.

“This is the first leg of league. We’ll have everybody else again. I told the guys today that we’re wrapping up the first leg, but we’re going to see everybody again and it’s going to be that much harder.”

WIAA From Page C1

Glacier Peak didn’t know where that would be until the deadline at 4 p.m. Wednesday. In fact, GP was a 3A school at one point Wednesday, before Spanaway Lake and Bethel rescinded their opt-up requests, pushing the Grizzlies and Olympia back to 4A. “It was an interesting ride,” Albertine said.

While Glacier Peak is moving up, its crosstown rival, Snohomish, is moving down. With an enrollment of 1,283.09, the Panthers drop from 4A to 3A. Cascade was one of the 22 schools that opted up to 4A, part of one of the largest group of schools to opt up in the WIAA’s history. Thirteen schools opted up to 3A, one to 2A (Archbishop Murphy), eight to 1A and

four to 2B. Of the 384 total member schools, there will be 65 schools in the 4A, 3A, 2A and 1A classifications and 62 in the 2B and 1B classifications for the 2016-20 classification cycle.

The numbers remain unofficial until the WIAA’s Executive Board meets Jan. 24-25. Schools have until Jan. 19 to file a classification appeal petition.

Albertine said there are several reasons a school might opt up, particularly this time around, as the WIAA switches from a twoto a four-year classification cycle.

“Transportation and travel was mentioned by some other schools,” Albertine said. “They (also) were worried about what league they were going to be in.”

Snohomish was on the cusp of being a 4A team, but the large number of opt-ups bumped the Panthers to 3A, where they elected to stay.

“When the numbers came out at first before all the opt-ups, we knew that we were going to end up on the bubble or close,” Snohomish athletic director Mark Perry said. “Then the opt-ups started hitting and officially last week we were called by the WIAA office and told we were now below the line and did we want to opt up or not? As a coaching staff, the coaches voted to go where the numbers put us.”

It’s still to be determined how the reclassifications will shape the three Wesco leagues. It’s possible that Snohomish and Glacier Peak could switch places, with Glacier Peak going to the Wesco 4A and Snohomish to the Wesco 3A South.

However, Perry and the Panthers would prefer to be in the Wesco 3A North because of historic rivalries with teams such as Marysville Pilchuck and Everett.

with the athletic directors to start to make some of those decisions on which schools will go north and which schools will go south,” Perry said.

Everett and Snohomish are the two border schools, Perry said, and it’s possible both could be in the Wesco 3A North. Either way, Snohomish’s non-league rivalry games with Glacier Peak will continue.

There also will be changes in the Wesco 3A/2A South.

The league will still have one 2A member, but that school has changed. Shorecrest, which has been a 2A team competing in a 3A league, will move up to 3A next season and Mountlake Terrace, a bubble 3A team the past couple cycles, will drop to 2A. As a result, the Hawks plan to join a new 12-team, football-only 2A league that will include two divisions, Terrace athletic director Kim Stewart said.

Other schools in the proposed league include Cascade Conference members Archbishop Murphy, Cedarcrest, Granite Falls and Lakewood, as well as Northwest Conference members Lynden, Sehome, Sedro-Woolley, BurlingtonEdison, Blaine, Anacortes and Bellingham.

The proposed league will be discussed at an athletic directors meeting on Friday.

“One of the things I think that’s cool about this football league is they’re going to take the four football teams that are usually pretty strong and split them up two each in each division,” Stewart said. “The rest of us will be drawn randomly. There won’t be a north-south type of thing.”

Stewart said that contrary to what many people think, Mountlake Terrace did not opt up to 3A for the current cycle. The Hawks were near the bottom of the 3A

enrollment list. “(After the last enrollment numbers were out) we got a call from the WIAA asking us if we wanted to opt down and the principal and I said we were going to follow the WIAA guidelines and we’ll land where we land,” Stewart said. “This year where we landed was in 2A and so that’s where we’ll go. We’ve been one of the smallest 3A schools for years. Instead of being the bottom of the heap as far as enrollment figures we’ll be one of the biggest (2A schools).”

The 2A and 1A teams in the Cascade Conference remain unchanged, with Archbishop Murphy opting up to 2A. Granite Falls, with an enrollment of 461.25 students, was the cutoff for 2A schools. Connell (461.13) was the start of the 1A schools, which include King’s, Cedar Park Christian-Bothell, South Whidbey and Sultan.

Sounders trade top SuperDraft pick for left back Jones

By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

The Seattle Sounders traded their top pick in the MLS SuperDraft to the Chicago Fire for left back Joevin Jones. And with that move, general manager Garth Lagerwey believes the club filled the final major hole in its roster heading into the

new season.

“You’ll see us add more bodies in midfield potentially, but I believe we have a potential starting lineup intact,” Lagerwey said. “But I want to stress that we want competition for positions everywhere all over the field. ... But I’ll say this: I think we have some guys with the potential and the

capability of starting. ... I think we’re pretty much covered on a positional basis all over the field.”

Lagerwey agreed he couldn’t have said that Thursday morning. Left back had been a position of need since the postseason parting of ways with longtime starter Leo Gonzalez.

Holdover Dylan Remick

failed to gain the club’s confidence as the logical heir, and 2015 draft pick Oniel Fisher is seen as a more natural fit at right back.

The Sounders moved to fix that by shipping the No. 15 overall pick and allocation money to Chicago for Jones, 24, who started 26 MLS games last season. That followed a five-year career in Trinidad & Tobago and Finland. He also has 37 appearances with the Trinidad & Tobago

Silvertips

two home games immediately preceding that win at Spokane, however, the record jumps to a more respectable 4-4-1-0.

The biggest difference the players notice is whether or not the Silvertips fans are there to ring their cowbells.

“It’s a little different because you have to travel, but once you’re all settled in it’s exactly the same thing as playing at home,” Silvertips forward Carson Stadnyk said. “We just don’t have the fans there and we don’t have the atmosphere.

“You have to feed off each other and feed off each other’s energy (on the road),” he added.

The Silvertips traveled approximately 1,200 miles during last weekend’s three-game road trip. Friday night’s jaunt is short by comparison — just up I-5 to Vancouver for a thereand-back day trip.

You might be wondering about Everett’s lone regulation loss during the 11-game span. It came to these same Vancouver Giants, who upended the

national team.

“Joevin is a player with speed and versatility that can come in and help our team,” coach Sigi Schmid said in a news release. “He played well for Chicago this past season, and we look forward to seeing what he brings.”

The trade left Seattle with two second-round picks. The club used the 27th overall pick to select Cal State Dominguez Hills central defender Tony Alfaro, and the 35th pick to

take Duke midfielder Zach Mathers.

The draft began with Chicago’s selection of Wake Forest midfielder Jack Harrison, who was then traded to New York City FC. With the 17th pick, FC Dallas selected goalkeeper Ryan Herman out of the University of Washington and Sounders FC Academy.

Overall, 41 selections were made Thursday, representing 29 colleges and 10 nations.

Tips 4-2 at Pacific Coliseum on Dec. 27. The Tips haven’t lost during regulation in the seven games since.

The Giants (17-21-32, 39 points) lost 17 of 19 during a stretch that encompassed most of October and November.

Vancouver appears to have righted itself in the interim and comes in with the Western Conference’s best record (7-2-1-0) in its last 10 games.

The Tips hold a 3-2 edge against the Giants this season, but Vancouver has won two straight.

“They’ve beaten us a couple times, and they’re playing well, and we have to be on top of our game,” Constantine said. “There will be little things we know about them and we’ll talk about that (Friday) as we prepare for the game. They have a very dynamic group of forwards that we have to be respectful about.”

Among those dynamic forwards are potent goalscorers like Ty Ronning (25 goals, 13 assists), Chase Lang (16 goals, 26 assists), Alec Baer (14 goals, 15 assists) and Carter Popoff (11 goals, 17 assists).

However, presumptive first-round NHL draft pick Tyler Benson (eight goals,

18 assists) is likely out after being listed as week-toweek with a lower body injury on the WHL weekly report. Trevor Cox (seven goals, 25 assists) is also listed as day-to-day.

“You gotta be aware of where they are,” Stadnyk said. “They have pretty skilled guys who can put the puck in the net and make plays. You just have to have an extra sense of when they’re out there and not go too over the top against them — don’t make the pretty plays, just make the simple plays and you should be fine.”

Six different goaltenders have played for the Giants this season, but Vancouver seems to have found an answer in Ryan Kubic (1211-2-0, 2.99 goals-against average, .909 save percentage). Kubic, though, is listed as day-to-day on the injury report.

The Tips return home for a 7 p.m. start on Saturday against Seattle, and face Saskatoon in a Monday matinee at 2 p.m.

Then Everett embarks on its second and final swing to the Central Division with games at Kamloops, Edmonton and Red Deer.

Sultan’s dog and people park Bernie Swaim wants to expand off-leash area for the good of the community

By Amy Nile Herald Writer

SULTAN — A new off-leash dog park has opened here.

Volunteers helped the city kick off the project by gathering donations and putting fencing around an area just north of the Sultan Food Bank at Osprey Park.

Now, dogs can run around the grassy area during daylight hours.

Volunteer Bernie Swaim said he saw the need for a dog park in Sultan. He often noticed people were letting their dogs run wild while he was filling containers with dog-waste bags as a volunteer for the city parks department.

In August, Swaim, 59, took on a new role, drumming up

support for the dog park. Swaim encouraged people to volunteer and donate supplies.

“Dog parks build community,” he said. “People get out and talk to each other while the dogs play.”

Leo Moreno, a Sultan business owner, donated building materials. He encouraged workers at his construction company to lend their expertise by volunteering to work on the project.

“If you can’t help, you’re part of the problem,” said Moreno, who plans to take his chocolate Labrador, named Mocha, to the park.

Moreno, 47, sees the dog park as the first of many new recreational opportunities in Sultan.

He hopes to offer dog training and agility classes at the park.

Moreno has other ideas too.

He wants to provide tubes for people to float the river and build a skatepark and a frisbee golf course.

“The town needs a new face,” Moreno said. “The dog park is a great start.”

The city is now working to extend the fenced park west so the dogs have more room to play. It plans to have that done by spring.

The city is seeking donations of chain-link fencing, fence posts and concrete and more volunteers.

Eventually, the hope is to expand the dog park to 20 acres, said Sultan Project Manager Victoria Forte. The city does not have a timeline for when that work will be completed.

For specific information on

How to help A new off-leash dog park is taking shape in Sultan, north of the food bank at 703 First St. Donations are needed — including chain link fence, posts, gates, bags of concrete — as well as volunteers for doing the work.

VA ‘presumption’ reg could help up to 15,000 Lejeune vets

T

he Department of Veterans Affairs expects up to 15,000 seriously ill veterans who served at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, before 1988, when base drinking water was contaminated, to be helped by a faster-track compensation process proposed last month.

But the promised acceleration in VA disability awards can’t begin until the proposed regulation becomes final, which could take at least another year to complete, VA officials said in an interview Tuesday.

In this case, time is money.

Every month that passes before a final regulation takes effect is a month of compensation lost to ailing veterans of an older generation, most of them Marines.

VA Secretary Bob McDonald announced in mid-December that eight medical conditions afflicting vets who served at Lejeune from August 1, 1953, through Dec. 31, 1987, are to be presumed the result of exposure to carcinogens and other harmful chemicals that fouled base water systems.

The proposed “presumptive” diseases are: kidney cancer, liver cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, multiple myeloma, scleroderma, Parkinson’s disease and aplastic anemia/myelodysplastic syndromes.

Making ailments presumptive moves compensation awards nearer to automatic. Diagnosed veterans still must file claims but they only need to show they served at Lejeune during the 34-year span for a necessary length of time. A minimum of 30 days is likely although officials won’t confirm that until a

TOM PHILPOTT MILITARY UPDATE proposed regulation is published, which is expected by mid-2016.

Without presumption, claims are adjudicated more slowly, with each claimant having to show a nexus between their disease and their service.

The Navy Department estimates that 900,000 active duty and reserve component personnel were assigned to Lejeune while water was being contaminated by nearby storage tanks and a dry cleaning business.

Roughly 500,000 of these veterans are believed still alive.

Based on the prevalence of such illnesses in a population of that size, VA estimates fewer than 15,000 vets will qualify for compensation under the proposed regulation. Also, 5000 survivors of deceased veterans are expected to qualify for death benefits due to these presumptive illnesses.

Three senators rightly claim some credit for this. Last July Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Georgia, chairman of the veterans’ affairs committee, and Sens. Richard Burr and Thom Tillis, Republicans of North Carolina, met with McDonald and the director of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry. Work by the

ATSDR has confirmed harmful levels of exposure at Lejeune to trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, vinyl chloride and benzene.

After listening to senators and reviewing the science, McDonald that day told participants he wanted to create a list of presumptive illnesses linked to long-ago service at Lejeune to speed the claim process.

Brad Flohr, senior advisor for compensation services at the Veteran Benefits Administration, attended the meeting. When asked, Flohr advised McDonald and senators that a regulation establishing new presumptive ailments typically takes two years to produce. McDonald said that was too long. So VA is striving to compress the process by six months or more. It did so once before, in 2009, when then-Secretary Eric Shinseki added heart disease, Parkinson’s and B-cell leukemia to the VA list of illnesses presumed caused by Agent Orange exposure in Vietnam, Flohr said.

“The secretary has pledged we will do the same with this,” Flohr said.

Since January 2011 more than 20,000 veterans have filed claims citing environmental hazards at Lejeune. Of the 13,213 veterans given decisions through November last year, only 864, or 6.5 percent, were granted compensation for illnesses tied to having served at Lejeune.

Almost 8000 of these veterans are receiving VA compensation already for other service-connected conditions. So many Lejeune claims have been denied, Flohr said, because ailments claimed are not linked to

the pollutants.

“Over 90 percent of claim issues are conditions that have nothing at all to do with the contaminants in the water,” Flohr said. “They claim hearing loss.

They claim tinnitus. They have some idea they should file a claim for anything they have.”

What has angered veterans and lawmakers, however, is the number of claims rejected for conditions has linked to Lejeune’s water. Senator Burr complained that the VA was making “ridiculous” use available science.

VA has tracked claim outcomes for six of the eight diseases on the proposed presumptive list.

Of 2039 claims filed so far, only 311, or 15 percent, have been approved. When the proposed regulation takes effect, the approval rate for these conditions should jump toward 100 percent.

Jerry Ensminger, a retired Marine Corps master sergeant who has led the fight for compensation and care of those exposed to poisons at Lejeune, criticized the proposed list of presumptive illnesses for excluding bladder cancer. The ATSDR gave VA a report last October, he said, that found “sufficient evidence” water at Lejeune caused a higher incidence of bladder cancer, just at it found evidence of causation for kidney and liver cancer.

Perhaps it’s no coincidence, Ensminger asserted, that among cancer claims filed by Lejeune vets, bladder cancer leads all others with 885 cases.

But Dr. Ralph L. Erickson, director of Pre-9/11-era PostDeployment Health for the Veterans Health Administration,

said VA is obligated to look at more than ATSDR findings to decide on presumption. He noted two recent mortality studies that “failed to identify an increased risk of bladder cancer mortality” in Marines or in civilians at Lejeune during the period of contamination. One found Lejeune Marines 23 percent less likely to die of bladder cancer than Marines never assigned there, Erickson added.

Erickson, a physician trained in preventive medicine and public health over a 32-year active duty Army career, came to VA two years ago. After the July meeting, he led a VA technical work group that recommended the list of presumptive diseases for McDonald.

The group, he said, “felt that the weight of the evidence was not sufficiently strong to recommend a presumption for bladder cancer at this time,” but more research is needed. “Our secretary,” Erickson said, “wanted his proposal for these new presumptions to be well-rooted in evidence.”

VA concurred on much of what the ATSDR reported, he said. But with a few ailments VA had “a professional difference of opinion as to the strength of the data.”

More information for Lejeune veterans and survivors is online at: www.publichealth.va.gov/ exposures/camp-lejeune/. VA continues to review Lejeune claims. However, for claims that would be denied under current regulations, decisions are being stayed until new regulations are made final.

Priceline airfare offer was faulty

DAILY CROSSWORD

Q: I recently purchased roundtrip tickets from Istanbul to Minneapolis using Priceline. The company confirmed my booking, sent me the itinerary, charged my American Express card and sent me the confirmation. A few hours later, Priceline called and said there was a problem with the ticket and that it could not honor the price. It refunded the charges.

I emailed the executive offices many times, and they sent me fluff letters saying, “Thank you for contacting us about your ‘unconfirmed’ trip.” They also told me to start a new search and advised me not to use the “back” button on my browser. Duh! After several more emails to them, they told me to try to book it again. I realized they were not listening to me, and I contacted a Delta Air Lines agent, who was so helpful. She researched the problem and discovered that the flight “deal” I tried to book was not valid from Istanbul to Minneapolis — only from Minneapolis to Istanbul. So even if I had tried to book the flight again, Priceline wouldn’t have honored that price either.

I booked tickets directly with Delta. If Priceline would have tried to fix the problem, or find out why I was having problems, I wouldn’t have gotten irritated. I

checked Priceline’s site, and it still is offering the incorrect price, almost two months later! I would like Priceline to remove this faulty offer from its webpage and reimburse me the $556 extra that I had to spend to book my flights with Delta.

— Sherry Brenneman, St. Paul, Minnesota A: Priceline’s deal should have been honored. Period. If it wasn’t available, the online travel agency should have removed it from its site promptly. There’s no telling how many other travelers were given the same false hope of a special fare, only to have it withdrawn after receiving a confirmation.

I’m also unhappy with the many tone-deaf form emails Priceline sent to you, even after

you contacted its executives. It’s possible that you reached out to the wrong managers. I publish a list of the right Priceline executive contacts on my consumer-advocacy site: http://elliott.org/ company-contacts/priceline/.

As for the offer itself, airlines often impose restrictions on their specials. It’s not that unusual to find sales that go only one way — Minneapolis to Istanbul, but not Istanbul to Minneapolis. But it is unusual to find an uncorrected error on a major agency site. My Priceline contact told me that this is the first time he’d ever seen anything like it. That makes two of us.

Priceline investigated the unavailable fare, and that’s where things got even weirder. Turns out the fare was available both ways, but the sale ended in March.

You were trying to book a ticket in June. Priceline suggested that the airline had loaded the wrong dates.

“We will be contacting her to explain what happened and offer our apologies, and give her an additional $50 as a thank you for bringing this to our attention,” a representative told me.

Thanksgiving guest took self-guided tour of home Dear Abby: I lived with my mother, who passed away recently. I invited my cousins over to the house for Thanksgiving. One of them invited a cousin-inlaw I had never met.

When I woke from a nap, the cousin-in-law was here and asked me about our walk-in bathtub, which means that while I was asleep on my mother’s bed, she had entered my mother’s bedroom and private bathroom. I was flabbergasted.

She also asked to keep a program I showed her from Mom’s service. I wanted to refuse (I still haven’t sent programs to out-of-state friends and relatives and am unsure how many I may need), but I let her keep it.

Should I say something to let her know how inappropriate it was for her to give herself a tour of my home before she even met me? — Invaded In California Dear Invaded: No, but you should absolutely say something to the cousin who invited a stranger to your Thanksgiving dinner without permission, and compounded it by leaving that person unsupervised while you slept.

Dear Abby: I’m a 31-year-old nail biter and have been one for as long as I can remember. As an adult, I’m now attacking my cuticles to the point that they bleed.

If I feel a hangnail, I have to push it down or rip it out. It may be stressrelated, but sometimes I don’t even realize I’m doing it.

Do you have any thoughts on when to tell a man I’m dating that I’m still a virgin? Should it be on the second or third date, when we become exclusive, or after that?

Did Gervais kill the cringe comedy trend?

‘Sesame Street’ now brought to you by the letters HBO

By Stephanie Merry The Washington Post

Are we done with cringe comedy yet? It would appear that way after Ricky Gervais’ ho-hum performance at the Golden Globes. The patron saint of squirm-inducing quips ridiculed Mel Gibson, Charlie Sheen, Donald Trump and Ben Affleck, among others.

Jaws were dropping, but mostly to yawn. Viewership was down 4 percent compared to last year, during Tina Fey and Amy Poehler’s comparatively good-natured show. And those who did tune in weren’t exactly rolling on the floor.

Gervais’ monologue was “proof that jokes about transgender people ... have lost most of their potency,” The Washington Post’s Hank Stuever wrote. According to the New York Times, Gervais “risks becoming a Ricky Gervais tribute band dutifully smashing his guitar on cue.”

“When was the last time the Globes were this painful to watch?”

Entertainment Weekly wondered.

The reaction shows that comedy that induces discomfort has become passe. In its place, a new trend has sprouted: jokes that make you ponder rather than wince. Practitioners include buzzy names like Amy Schumer, Aziz Ansari, Issa Rae, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele.

We didn’t used to mind being tortured by our entertainment. “Curb Your Enthusiasm” debuted in 1999, two years before Gervais’ breakout hit “The Office.” Sacha Baron Cohen’s “Da Ali G Show” first arrived on screen in 2000, paving the way for more gotcha-fueled humiliation with “Borat” and “Bruno,” and the roving correspondents of “The Daily Show” have been prompting nervous laughter from the start.

But “The Office” pushed

By Frazier Moore Associated Press

With the extension of “Sesame Street” into a high-price neighborhood — HBO, where it premieres Saturday morning — it has signaled significant urban renewal.

“Sesame Street” grew out of the socially progressive ethos of President Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society of the 1960s. Premiering on public television as a breakthrough in children’s TV on Nov. 10, 1969, it was conceived primarily to help prepare underprivileged preschoolers for their entry into the classroom.

And this “Street” could be visited toll-free.

Needless to say, the Sixties are long gone.

Now “Sesame Street” is setting off for its 46th season of making kids “smarter, stronger, kinder” (the show’s motto) at its new HBO address.

Those 35 new half-hours won’t begin rolling out on PBS until fall.

In the meantime, the continuing PBS version of “Sesame” has been retrofitted from its traditional hour’s length to “best-of” half-hours drawn from the past few seasons (check local listings for air times).

The five-season deal with HBO, which provides the program with what its producers have called “critical funding,” will make the show available on HBO and related platforms, including HBO GO and HBO on Demand, in both English and Spanish.

The changes afoot reflect the current flood of children’s programming (by contrast, “Sesame” originally filled a niche almost no other kids’ show even recognized), as well as the new ways this umpteenth generation of “Sesame” fans practices viewing habits vastly different from decades ago.

“Sesame” will premiere on HBO at 9 a.m. Saturday with two new half-hours.

Episodes will air simultaneously on HBO Latino, and an hour of repeats will air on HBO Family daily at 8 a.m.

This new “Street” represents the “boldest” changes in the program’s history, says Sesame Workshop.

Based on the first two

Ricky Gervais

the trend mainstream, as the British version of the show won Golden Globes in 2004, beating out the likes of “Arrested Development,” “Sex & the City” and “Will & Grace.” The American version, starring Steve Carell, debuted the following year and went on to become one of NBC’s highest rated shows.

Humor has evolved.

Where cringe comedy takes everyday situations and transforms them into demoralizing nightmares, the new jokesters make shameful experiences a little less mortifying.

Take, for example, the first episode of Aziz Ansari’s Netflix series “Master of None.” The show starts with Ansari’s character Dev accompanying a one-night stand to the drug store to buy a Plan B pill after a condom mishap. Rather than revel in discomfort, Dev acts like it’s no big deal. He diffuses the situation with a few light jokes and an effervescent appreciation for Martinelli’s apple juice.

The new crop of shows also use comedy to demystify life experiences. In the “Master of None” episode “Ladies and Gentlemen,” the show describes what it’s like to be a woman walking home alone late at night by showing just such a lady, who fearfully walkjogs over horror movie music, and juxtaposing that with Dev and his best friend doing the same thing to the tune of “Don’t Worry, Be Happy.”

The objective is connectivity — getting people to understand each other’s experiences. The humor is also cathartic for the people who know those struggles well.

episodes available for preview, those changes go beyond the added media outlet and scaled-down length. The show, perhaps more beautifully produced than ever, is now efficiently packaged in a single theme per episode, rather than the magazine format of its past.

One of this week’s shows addresses “Exploration” (including a sequence with actor Alan Cumming as Mucko Polo, a “grouch explorer” who leads Elmo and fellow Muppets on escapades using their five senses to track down yucky things).

The other episode’s theme is “Bedtime,” as Elmo and Abby Cadabby get help in adopting a calm-down bedtime routine from a new human character, Nina (played by the enormously appealing Suki Lopez).

Expected elements remain Elmo’s Letter of the Day (“B” is for Bedtime) and the Count saluting his Number of the Day. Cookie Monster has a brand-new feature, “Smart Cookies,” where he and a team of crime-fighting cookie friends thwart the efforts of the villainous Crumb.

As always, star turns are part of “Street” life. Besides “The Good Wife’s” Cumming, bold-face names include Sara Bareilles, Ne-Yo, Tracee Ellis Ross and Gina....

Rodriguez.

But the biggest star, by far, remains Elmo, who headlines most of the segments and, joined by legions of his fellow Muppets, dominates to the near-exclusion of any human “Sesame” inhabitants. And even moving

beyond the physicality of puppets, the episodes make generous use of digital imagery in a seamless abstract integration.

Bottom line: The easygoing pace in the neighborhood of old seems to have fallen prey to a newly revved-up virtual world. A dazzling new opening is set (for the first time) on Sesame Street itself, but in the action that follows, this precious urban retreat is more a state of mind than onscreen real estate.

Even so, it’s hard not to get caught up in the lively, trippy antics of this newly Street-wise show, such as when Elmo performs a musical tribute to guacamole alongside a singing, dancing nose.

And grown-ups sneaking a peek with their kids can still learn from the show they grew up with. By now, have you maybe forgotten what a rhombus is? This week’s “Sesame Street” will school you. If you have HBO.

Today is Friday, Jan. 15, the 15th day of 2016.

There are 351 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight: On Jan. 15, 1976, Sara Jane Moore was sentenced to life in prison for her attempt on the life of President Gerald R. Ford in San Francisco.

(Moore was released on the last day of 2007.)

On this date: In 1559, England’s Queen Elizabeth I was crowned in Westminster Abbey.

In 1929, civil rights leader Martin Luther King, Jr. was born in Atlanta.

In 1943, work was completed on the Pentagon, headquarters of the U.S. Department of War (now Defense).

In 1947, the mutilated remains of 22-year-old Elizabeth Short, who came to be known as the “Black Dahlia,” were found in a vacant Los Angeles lot; her slaying remains unsolved.

In 1967, the Green Bay Packers of the National Football League defeated the Kansas City Chiefs of the American Football League 35-10 in the first AFL-NFL World Championship Game, known retroactively as Super Bowl I. In 1981, the police drama series “Hill Street Blues” premiered on NBC. In 2001, Wikipedia, a web-based encyclopedia, made its debut.

In 2009, US Airways Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger ditched his Airbus 320 in the Hudson River after a flock of birds disabled both engines; all 155 people aboard survived.

‘Anomalisa’: Puppets tell a very human story ROBERT HORTON

“S

crambled is my favorite eggs style. What about yours?” The speaker is Lisa, a lonely, sincere, somewhat vapid woman sharing breakfast with a well-regarded expert on customer service, Michael Stone.

The line is vintage Charlie Kaufman: The Oscar-winning screenwriter has an uncanny ear for small talk and eager inanities — the chintzy conversation of the 21stcentury mall-dweller.

Kaufman risks the acid reflux that can result from writing these characters; there’s a fine line between the despair he conveys over the way we live today and out-and-out contempt for it.

But his dialogue is so sharp you can’t help appreciating these people despite themselves (or you’ll be so impressed by the moviemaking experiment — the fact that “Adaptation” becomes exactly the kind of movie the on-screen Kaufman doesn’t want it to become, for instance — that liking the characters won’t matter).

“Anomalisa” is lemonsucking sour, but there are enough gimmicks — and enough lacerating humor — to make the film memorable. Michael Stone is in Cincinnati for a one-day conference. His trek from airport to hotel is ordinary, yet fraught with the

David Thewlis voices Michael Stone and Jennifer Jason Leigh voices Lisa Hesselman in the animated stop-motion film, “Anomalisa.”

nightmare of social interaction, customer service, ironically enough.

Kaufman makes talking to cabbies and desk clerks a circle of hell; everywhere Michael is reminded that Cincinnati chili is not to be missed. (I went to Cincinnati once. They never stopped talking about the chili.)

Already depressed, Michael collapses completely when a call to a former girlfriend ends badly. Only a chance encounter with Lisa — staying at the Fregoli Hotel for the same conference — seems to offer a ray of sunshine, and an intimate encounter for the night.

This is all in stop-motion animation. Kaufman codirected “Anomalisa” with animator Duke Johnson, and they’ve created a detailed puppet-world set mostly inside the featureless hotel.

The puppets allow Kaufman to pursue one of his central ideas: That

to the depressed Michael (voiced by David Thewlis), everyone in the world looks and sounds the same. There’s an actual condition describing this — the Fregoli Syndrome — but Kaufman is interested in existential problems, not psychiatric issues.

They wear different clothes and sport different hair, but all the puppets have the same interchangeable face, pinched and hollow-eyed. (If, like most sane people, you find puppets creepy, these will quickly get under your skin.)

They are all voiced by the distinctive character actor Tom Noonan, who perfectly captures a kind of chipper blandness in every man, woman, and child he articulates. The exception is Lisa, given voice

by Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Michael picks up Lisa and her good-time friend at the hotel, and he clumsily propositions Lisa after they’ve had a few belts.

Lisa is frumpy and her conversation is littered with childlike observations, but the fact that her voice rings out like a human presence in a world of sameness explains Michael’s fascination with her. At one point she sings a song — Jennifer Jason Leigh’s second show-stopper of the season, along with her ballad in “The Hateful Eight” — and for a moment Kaufman’s horror and pity for the human condition seem to merge into one super-focused vision.

Kaufman’s first film as director was “Synecdoche, New York,” a mind-spinning Chinese box of a concept. Impressively brainy as it was, I thought the film lacked the nimbleness brought by the directors of Kaufman’s previous screenplays, Spike Jonze (“Being John Malkovich”) or Michel Gondry (“Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless

Mind”). “Synecdoche” lumbered by contrast.

“Anomalisa” has a similarly plodding pace, although here it feels more appropriate to Kaufman’s goal of capturing the drawn-out experience of social torture. (A box set of his films might be titled “Cringe Along with Me.”) Just getting Michael from the front desk of the hotel to his room is a death march, as he must navigate the pep talk from his bellhop: “Nice weather we’re having. Yes. The weather is very good.

Very…very…very very good. (pause) 68 degrees Fahrenheit.” No wonder Michael is ready to clutch at the first sign of something different.

It can’t end happily; whether you think Kaufman justifies his bittersweet ending will depend on your tolerance for these desperate people. “Sometimes there’s no lesson,” Michael

PARAMOUNT PICTURES

“Anomalisa” ★★★ Sardonic screenwriter Charlie Kaufman (“Being John Malkovich”) directs this sour but brutally witty tale of a depressed man (voice

by David Thewlis) who meets a woman (Jennifer Jason Leigh) during a business conference.

The movie’s in stop-motion animation, which perfectly suits Kaufman’s view that most people in the world look and sound exactly the same.

Rating: R, for language, nudity Showing: Guild 45th muses. “That’s a lesson in itself.” There’s Kaufman stating his philosophy, which isn’t quite enough to mask the vinegary aftertaste of this very, very smart film.

cheapo animated feature is hard to guess. The fact that “Norm” carries an environmental message doesn’t cut it any slack, either.

Norm (voiced by Rob Schneider) is a polar bear, born with a rare genetic anomaly that allows him to speak English. He prefers singing and dancing to hunting seals, a tendency that is welcomed by seals and visiting tourists alike.

But when Norm gets a chance to visit New York City, he forgets about playing Broadway. Instead, he delivers a message on the over-development of the Arctic, in hopes of staving off a greedy real-estate mogul (Ken Jeong from the “Hangover” movies, completely manic here).

Not a real fun story line.

So Norm is given some lemmings as sidekicks, who do not at all resemble the penguins from the “Madagascar” movies or the minions from the “Despicable Me” franchise.

The movie tries to

Everett Daily Herald, The

“Norm of the North” ★ A cheapo animated film about a polar bear (Rob Schneider) who can speak English. He goes to New York City to deliver an environmental message, taking his oh-somarketable lemmings in tow. A flabby movie.

Rating: PG, for subject matter Showing: Alderwood Mall, Everett Stadium, Marysville, Meridian, Woodinville, Cascade Mall deflect the obvious tie-in when a real estate agent (Heather Graham) spots the lemmings and notes how “marketable” they are.

That’s for sure.

The lemmings don’t speak English — I mean they’re lemmings, not polar bears, duh — but

they do a lot of tumbling and chirping. They also let loose plenty of flatulence gags, which are always good for a laugh, as Shakespeare noted.

Well, maybe not always.

Not the 10th time, anyway.

“Norm” is drawn up like a mathematical formula: There’s Norm’s crusty grandfather (Colm Meaney), and a wise seabird (Bill Nighy) with an English accent. There’s quite a bit of “Happy Feet,” and a touch of “How to Train Your Dragon,” too.

The film’s visual style is extremely basic, and the lame jokes and scattered storytelling make you appreciate how focused the best animated films are. Cartoons have to be trimmed down — stray plot lines and overwritten dialogue is too expensive to animate, so scripts tend to be much tighter than live-action films. Compared to the best animated movies, “Norm” has a lot of blubber.

People love to say of great actors, “I’d listen to him/her read the phone book.” The odd new essay film “Dreams Rewired” offers more than the phone book, but it does prove the adage correct.

The actor here is the glorious Tilda Swinton, the Oscar-winner whose range has taken her from “Snowpiercer” to “Trainwreck” to “The Grand Budapest Hotel” — and that’s just in the last couple of years.

Swinton isn’t seen in “Dreams Rewired,” but she reads aloud a torrent of words. What we see on screen is a film-clip compilation of the earliest days of cinema, from the late 19th century to the mid-1930s.

The focus is on technical innovation, so there are references to the invention of the telephone, the radio, the television. These are loosely gathered, not lined up as an informational documentary.

Instead, the narration, written by the German and Austrian filmmakers Manu Luksch, Martin Reinhart, and Thomas Tode, gives a dreamy account of what all this might mean. High-falutin’ academic rhetoric mixes with 21st-century lingo, for reasons that are not always evident.

One line — ”Every age thinks it’s the modern age” — might hold the key to this mixing and matching. It’s true; as we watch these apparently antiquated images from a century ago, we remember that every era is cutting edge at some point.

“Dreams Rewired” ★★½ A curious compilation of film clips — mostly arranged around the theme of technical breakthroughs — drawn from the earliest decades of cinema. The entertaining Tilda Swinton narrates, from a high-falutin’ academic script, but it’s the images that provide the fascination.

Rating: Not rated; probably PG Showing: Grand Illusion theater Swinton has fun inhabiting various voices and moods. She’s so good she can make even this heavy verbiage come to life.

The images are the main thing, though, and they are great to see, even if the point of it all remains obscure.

The only film specifically identified, for some reason, is “Battleship Potemkin,” Sergei Eisenstein’s celebrated work of propaganda art.

Some other famous classics are identifiable: “The Man with the Movie Camera,” Charlie Chaplin’s “Modern Times,” the futuristic “Things to Come.” But film history is not the point here. Creating a flow of ideas is the point.

If you love the early years of movies, you might enjoy the flow — the excerpts are not only from features, but also from newsreels, scientific films, and industrial films. There’s some cool stuff unearthed here.

The sequel to “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” will open 18 months after the current blockbuster. That’s half the time George Lucas took between his installments of the franchise.

Let’s hope a year and a half is enough, because good sequels need time.

Case in point: “Ride Along 2,” which opens exactly two years after the first “Ride Along.”

That first movie was funny and peppy, and it confirmed Kevin Hart’s star status. But the sequel feels rushed and barely sketched-out, written with no sense of where to find comedy in a buddy-cop movie.

The diminutive Hart returns as Ben Barber, a hyper counterpart to veteran Atlanta police officer James Payton (Ice Cube), whose sister (Tika Sumpter) plans to marry Ben. The first film established that — much to James’s chagrin — Ben was a great enthusiast of police work.

In “Ride Along 2,” Ben is actually a trainee on the force, and screenwriters Phil Hay and Matt Manfredi let him tag along with James on a case in Miami. Pretty much the same set-up, in other words, but this time with palm trees.

The good thing about the first movie was that most scenes set up Kevin Hart to riff on some absurd situation while Ice Cube stood around stonefaced. If the comedian is inspired enough, that can be enough to justify a movie.

But oh boy, not this time. For one thing, there’s too much plot,

UNIVERSAL PICTURES

about a Florida shipping magnate (Benjamin Bratt) receiving — I don’t know, an illegal shipment, or something. Nobody cares what the plot’s about in a movie like this, so it makes you wonder why this one is so complicated.

“Ride Along 2” brings in “Hangover” regular Ken Jeong as a nerdy hacker; I guess he’s supposed to be what Joe Pesci was in the “Lethal Weapon” sequels.

Another addition is Olivia Munn, as a serious Miami cop. She’s given just about nothing to do.

150

The isolated laughs can’t disguise the long patches of tedium. As though drawing plot twists from a jar, director Tim Story throws in an alligator attack and a video-game sequence at random moments, while finding time for Ben to be whacked in the head by a ceiling fan.

Actually, the ceiling fan gag is kind of a high point. Time to let this franchise fade away, while Kevin Hart goes in search of greener, and funnier, pastures.

Located Right Behind Fred Meyer

Everything in director Michael Bay’s cinematic vocabulary — the glamorizing slo-mo, the falling bomb point-of-view shots, the low-angle framing of his heroes with blue sky, fireballs or an American flag in the background — suggests not real life, or the way things might have happened, but a Michael Bay movie.

It’s true of the “Transformers” movies and it’s true of “13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi.” Bay’s latest is a mixed-up blend of truth and distortion. Parts of it deliver a punch, and a jolt, and ripples of earnest (and even complicated) emotion. Then the characters, some of them composites or fabrications, start talking again. The cliches tumble out. And Bay gets preoccupied with delivering audience-baiting “kill shots,” engineered to appease our bloodlust and avenge our enemies.

At such moments “13 Hours” becomes less convincing in its interpretation of what happened Sept. 11-12, 2012, when terrorists attacked two Central Intelligence Agency compounds (one official, one unofficial) in Benghazi, Libya. The key figures here, the men who helped Mitchell Zuckoff write the account on which Bay’s film is based, are members of the CIA’s sub-contracted GRS, or Global Response Staff.

Six members of what was known as the Annex Security Team were hired to protect CIA staffers at the compounds.

Photographed in Malta, doubling for Libya, “13 Hours” begins with the usual introductions of the six GRS security personnel

“13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi” ★★½ During the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. diplomatic compound in Libya, elite ex-military operatives fight back when plans go awry. With James Badge Dale, John Krasinski, Max Martini, Pablo Schreiber, Toby Stephens.

Rated: R, for strong combat violence throughout, bloody images, and language Showing: Alderwood, Cinebarre, Everett Stadium, Galaxy Monroe, Marysville, Pacific Place, Thornton Place, Woodinville, Cascade Mall soon to be under siege.

John Krasinski of “The Office” plays Jack Silva, the most amiable of the guys, who has left a wife and children behind to make a living, keep the adrenaline going and serve a higher cause in a dangerous place. James Badge Dale portrays the stalwart Tyrone “Rone” Woods, a natural leader and a bullheaded adversary to the sniveling CIA base chief (David Costabile) who symbolizes everything wrong with foreign policy, in Bay’s eyes, under the Obama administration. Screenwriter Chuck Hogan (“The Town”) leaves nothing to chance, as Costabile’s softbellied Ivy League punk looks one of our protectors straight in the eye and says: “You’re not a first responder. You’re the last resort.” Such moments push “13 Hours” far, far into movieland.

But of course “13 Hours” is a movie, and movies owe their subjects and the audience something larger than the facts. The characters refer to other films: “Black Hawk Down,” “The Bourne Identity,” “Tropic Thunder.” At his shrewdest, Bay handles the action swiftly and well.

The compound assaults; the perplexing array of Libyan militia fighters (never humanized, barely

dramatized) working with, or against, the U.S.; the physical spaces in which the battles take place and the bodies fall, often video-gamer style, with little poofs of red blood hitting the air after the bullets hit the targets’ skulls.

Fox News and other conservative outlets are all over “13 Hours” and, judging from many early reports, loving it. Early in the film President Barack Obama is heard in voiceover, praising “a new and democratic Libya” in the wake of the post-Gadhafi era. It’s a “what-an-idiot!” moment, disproven immediately by a quick montage of chaos and destruction. The other off-screen villain of the movie, thenSecretary of State Hillary Clinton, will no doubt be answering question after question on the campaign trail about the film’s inference, largely supported by the historical record, that the U.S. underestimated security concerns before and after the terrorist attacks in Benghazi.

“13 Hours” says one thing — “You can’t tell the good guys from the bad guys” — and shows you quite another. Bay and company have no trouble telling the good guys from the bad guys. We are only meant to care about certain deaths, not the vast majority.

Exploring the French-Vietnamese culinary connection

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

1494374

The French colonial period in Vietnam left its culinary mark on the Asian country.

Chris Lee and his brother Dennis, from an immigrant Vietnamese family, make the most of that food heritage. The names of their restaurants honor their grandfather, who cooked for them.

They share the French bakery Chez Grand-Pere in Mountlake Terrace.

Along with delicious pastries for the bakery, the brothers also bake the demi-baguettes used for banh mi sandwiches sold at Yeh Yeh’s (grandpa’s) in Lynnwood. Chris owns the sandwich place.

The bakery, not quite two years old, was born of the need for those fresh baguettes. But according to the bakery’s website, the Lee brothers GOURMET BURGERS! WRAPS! SALADS!

are “passionate perfectionists of French baking,” so croissants also are baked fresh each morning as well.

The Lee family emigrated from Vietnam in 1980.

On Yeh Yeh’s website: “We were reminded of the memories of our own grandpa and the great food he made us when we were children. We always looked forward to going to our grandpa’s house for wonderful food. We hope that we can share our experiences with you and have you look forward to coming back to enjoy the same great food from our family’s recipes.”

So that is the intent.

At both places, the Lee family succeeds.

On a recent morning I met my daughter Emilie and granddaughter Paige at Chez Grand-Pere for breakfast. The bakery is located on the south side of town in a building that used to house a printing business.

Emilie and I have been to France, so we are picky about French pastries. Got to say, these were the best we have eaten in the Puget Sound area, hands down.

Here’s what we tried: A small, round creamy quiche was $2.75. Pate chaud (or banh pate so) — a savory, warm puff pastry filled with pork with Continental/Asian flavors that are almost sweet — was $4.

Together they made for a substantial breakfast.

My 2-year-old grandkid liked her bite of the tasse de creme (a caramel custard pastry) as well as the fresh blueberry Danish (both $3.25) but she started grinning and swinging her legs while she ate a piece of the pain au chocolat (a chocolate croissant for $3.50). So buttery, so creamy, such good chocolate.

The most popular item on the menu is the huge almond croissant ($3.85), and there is a reason for

that. It is amazing, plain and simple. The real taste test, however, came with the plain croissant ($3), which, again, we determined was the best around.

Cafe au lait, drip coffee and other drinks are available, and customers are free to sit, read, go online, sip and savor.

We were given a nice pastry box in which to take home the leftovers. We could have eaten all of it, but we had more dining to do.

Near Edmonds Community College is Lynnwood’s Gold Park and across the street from the park is Yeh Yeh’s.

It doesn’t look like much from the outside, but inside it smells great. It’s packed with lunch customers and one can tell that the kitchen is rockin’.

We ordered a grilled pork banh mi sandwich for $4.15, a bowl of Hu Tieu Mi My Tho, about $7, and a spring roll with chicken for $3.50. The roll came with a nice sweet and (slightly) sour peanut sauce.

Vietnamese coffee and bubble tea are available, along with other beverages.

The sandwich starts with

Chez GrandPere Bakery

one of those fresh demibaguettes from the bakery.

This bread is perfectly crispy on the outside and super soft on the inside.

The sandwich was loaded with tasty marinated grilled pork, fresh julienned and quick-pickled vegetables, cucumbers, onions, cilantro and jalapeno slices. (Still good without the pepper, in case you don’t want super spicy.) The slight sweet and sour flavor of the veggies offers a refreshing balance to the meat and bread. Banh mi are made and toasted to order.

Other sandwich fillings include brisket, chicken, beef, salmon, tofu, ham, pastrami and even Philly cheese steak, and the price doesn’t go above $6.25.

The vermicelli salad looked tasty and generous, also for $6.25.

Pho ($6.25) is available daily, but the family’s specialty pork soup, Hu Tieu Mi My Tho, is served only at the end of the week.

The recipe comes from the family’s native city, My Tho, in south Vietnam. Get both the hu tieu (rice noodle) and the mi (egg noodle). The stock is

Heart by Heart ‘riding the wave’ to Everett

By Gale Fiege

If you go

Herald Writer

EVERETT — Heart by Heart isn’t really a cover band. It’s a spin off from Heart, one of the Northwest’s most famous stadium rock bands.

Bassist Steve Fossen and drummer Mike Derosier were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2013 along with other members of Heart.

And now they lead this spin-off, which has fast become one of Snohomish County’s favorite bands.

Heart by Heart plays Saturday evening at the Historic Everett Theatre and on Jan. 31 at “A Taste of the Taste” at the Edmonds Center for the Arts.

The rest of the band includes well-known Hendrix-style guitarist Randy Hansen, keyboards and guitar player Lizzy Daymont and lead vocalist Somar Macek, who by the way is Fossen’s fiance.

Keyboardist Bob Rivers had to retire from the group in November following some medical issues.

Fossen, 66, often talks about how his band honors the legacy of Heart.

What matters most, however, is that he still loves the music from the 1970s and ’80s.

“I appreciate the nostalgic experience shared by our fans and the history we bring to the stage when we play,” he said.

“Heart did something that translated to a lot of people, and we still play the same way we did then.”

Fossen and Derosier have known Hansen for decades. They met Macek in 2008, and she and Fossen formed a duet that

played for dinner parties.

“Word was getting out

that some of us were performing together. We

got a call asking Mike, Randy, Somar and me to open for Dwight Yoakam in Anchorage back in 2009,” Fossen said. “We rehearsed and relearned a bunch of Heart material.

Well, Yoakam canceled, but, hey, we had a band.

It was fun, so we kept rehearsing.”

After a benefit concert at the Everett Station transit center, the word about the band kept spreading.

A gig at the Canoes Cabaret at the Tulalip Resort Casino led to the group’s meeting with Daymont.

“Lizzy opened for us and then stayed to sing with us. We enjoyed it and then found out she was interested in joining the band,” Fossen said.

“Good thing, because my vocals were not what they needed to be. The first time Lizzy and Somar sang together, I thought I was going to cry. Oh, that was cool.”

Rivers also joined the

band about the same time.

“We miss Bob, but you can’t mess around with health.”

Heart by Heart has perfected the hit Heart singles that remain standards of rock radio including “Magic Man,” “Crazy on You,” “Heartless” and “Barracuda.”

For a time, original Heart guitarist Roger Fisher, who lives in Monroe and still performs, sat in with the band, too.

“But Rog had other things he wanted to do, and we started to get on a regular schedule,” Fossen said.

Fisher and Fossen are longtime friends.

They, along with Fisher’s brother Mike, were the founding members of the band (while they were students at Inglemoor High School) that eventually became Heart, including Derosier, Ann and Nancy Wilson and

Howard Leese.

“During the past five years, Heart by Heart has gained new fans, played on the East Coast and we have gigs booked in California,” Fossen said. “It just keeps going and we are riding the wave.”

The band is looking forward to playing at the old Everett theater, which is managed by one of Fossen’s former Inglemoor school mates, Curt Shriner.

“It’s a neat venue with a lot of history. I love history,” said Fossen, who is a member of the Monte Cristo Preservation Association. “I grew up in Lake Forest Park, but I spent a lot of time in Snohomish County and I still do. It’s a great community for us right now.”

Seattle tavern hosts Vanessa Carlton tonight

By Andy Rathbun

the songs were pretty solid — helped turn Oh Wonder into a small viral success.

The act’s efforts, which put the spotlight on the overlapping vocals of the male-female duo, were collected on its self-titled debut, which saw release in September.

Tickets are $15 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849.

Special to The Herald

The biggest show of the week is also one of the smallest.

Pop star Vanessa Carlton will sneak into Seattle’s Tractor Tavern for an intimate show at 9 tonight.

Carlton is best-known for her pop hit “A Thousand Miles,” which topped the pop charts back in 2002 and remains a favorite today, racking up more than 50 million plays on Spotify so far.

The song set the template for Carlton’s music, a more approachable version of the piano-driven heart-on-sleeve songwriting of women like Fiona Apple and Tori Amos.

She hasn’t approached the same levels of success that she enjoyed with her early hit, although singles like “White Horses” and “Hands on Me” nonetheless made a mark on the charts. And her output has never truly wavered.

She’s touring now behind her fifth album, “Liberman.”

Tickets for the 21-andover show are $25 at ticketweb.com.

Langhorne Slim & the Law also will bring its earthy alt-country to Seattle in the days ahead, playing Neumos at 8 p.m.

Tuesday.

Slim’s sound has gotten a boost in recent years, with the track “The Way We Move” in particular gaining traction — the gritty and upbeat song was featured in the Paul Rudd/Tiny Fey comedy “Admission” and a Microsoft commercial.

That song was featured on the album of the same name, which saw release

became the group’s first to nudge onto the Billboard 200, reaching No. 194.

Tickets are $16 at etix. com.

Langhorne Slim & the Law play Neumos in Seattle on Tuesday.

in 2012. Since then, the act has released a fifth

album, “The Spirit Moves,” which again melded a

bluegrass feel to its brand of indie rock. The album

A pair of shows also will keep the Neptune Theatre in Seattle busy next week.

First up is a stop from Oh Wonder, which will play the Neptune at 8:30 p.m. Monday.

The duo, made up of Anthony West and Josephine Vander Gucht, has earned an audience on both sides of the Atlantic with atmospheric R&Bindebted pop.

The act made waves by putting its self-titled debut together in unique fashion. The pair set out to release a single a month for one year straight. The gimmick — along with the fact that

Then, at 8 p.m. Thursday, Ty Segall and the Muggers will play the Neptune.

Quickly becoming an indie-rock heavyweight, Segall has amazed fans and critics alike with his ability to funnel 1960s pop through a fuzzed-out garage rock sound.

That sound has become a steady presence thanks to Segall’s amazing production rate. In 2012 alone, he released three albums, and seems to be constantly partnering with like-minded rockers like Mikal Cronin or playing a part in another act as a side project.

He’ll hit Seattle just weeks before the release of “Emotional Mugger,” his first proper solo album since 2014’s successful “Manipulator.”

Tickets are $18.50 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849.

And finally, Tribal Seeds will bring its reggae-rock to the Showbox at 8 p.m. Thursday.

The San Diego-based act has been releasing albums for a decade now, with hit singles like “Dawn of Time” drawing on the feel-good vibes of Jamaica.

Tickets are $18 at showboxonline.com or 888-929-7849.

Artist calls brain scans ‘a kind of self-portait’

By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

EVERETT — The thing about art shows at Snohomish County’s community colleges is that you’re more likely to see documentary, educational and groundbreaking work than you would in neighborhood art galleries.

Don’t miss the current exhibit at The Russell Day Gallery in the student union building at Everett Community College.

In the show “Deterioration,” up until Feb. 5, artist

Daisy Patton has digitally altered and colored her MRI brain scans into an ongoing series (currently at 35 pieces) she has printed since 2010, when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Patton earned her master of fine arts degree from The School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston/Tufts University and is now participating in a two-year residency at RedLine, an arts organization focused on community, social justice and arts education in Denver.

“A scan of the deterioration of my brain is turned into a beautiful object, a decorative relic, which is a choice I’ve made as to how to represent this aspect of my body,” Patton said. “Each scan set has its own color scheme.

Red appears as part of the design in scans that have new lesions, which denotes the progression of the disease.”

It may sound scary, but Patton, a beautiful young woman of 33, is first an artist. She works in a variety of media, including photography and

painting.

The artist refuses to be defined by her degenerative disease, though she has educated many people about MS over the years. An invisible illness, it eventually could decrease Patton’s cognitive and physical abilities.

For now, a monthly infusion of medication has mostly slowed the deterioration, and staying out of the heat keeps her feeling better.

“My husband and I are looking at moving to the Northwest,” she said. “I like the rain.”

Patton’s neurologists supply her with CDs of her periodic brain scans, and the doctors have taken an interest in her

work, which includes views from various angles.

“I like the tension created by the unsettling reality of the disease and the beauty of the prints,” she said. “These brain scan prints are kind of self-portraits, but I am much more detached than I would be if they were prints of my face.”

As time goes on, the series component of the work will become richer, Patton said.

“Digital manipulation of these scans is a way of exerting some control over this slowly debilitating illness.”

Historic Flight Presents: The History of Trans World Airlines The Trans World Airline story plays out against a backdrop of intense entrepreneurship in the 1920s, fiercely competitive and deeply political 1930s, and the crash that killed Notre Dame coach Knute Rockne. TWA encouraged design of and became the lead customer for airplanes like the DC-1 and DC-2, and pioneered high altitude flight with the first pressurized airliner, the Boeing 307. Barry Latter presents the fourth installment in Historic Flight Foundation’s Airline History Series.
