Displaced attorneys want to buy land back

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — One set of attorneys displaced by Snohomish County’s mothballed courthouse project wants the chance to buy back their old building.

Melissa and Brian Sullivan’s former practice on Rockefeller

Avenue has remained vacant in the year-plus since the county bought it and five other properties using eminent domain. The county’s elected leaders had been preparing to build an eight-story courthouse on the site, which also includes a county-owned parking lot. They pulled the plug over the summer, citing budget

concerns and Everett’s requirements for more parking.

“We submitted to the government’s demand that we vacate our premises based on the county’s assurance that they had done their due diligence and that the project would break ground within months,” the Sullivans wrote in their Jan. 8 letter. “In the end, our

concerns had been spot on. The lack of sufficient parking would be an issue that would eventually scuttle the entire project.”

The Sullivans, a husband and wife who are no relation to County Councilman Brian Sullivan, received $705,000 for their building, land and moving expenses. They say they’ve seen

Public restrooms planned in Edmonds A downtown business group will pitch in $10,000 of the $300,000 needed to build the facilities, which could be completed for the busy summer season.

One other factor helped speed the project’s completion. Soil sampling for contaminants under the pier “came back clean,” McIntosh said. “So that was also a savings in time and money.”

Before the demolition project began, 60 sea stars were removed from the site and taken the Seattle Aquarium.

EDMONDS — Visitors may soon be able to linger longer in the downtown shopping district.

The city plans to have new public restrooms installed by this summer, the busiest season for local merchants.

“Public restrooms are one of the top issues for businesses in downtown Edmonds,” said Cadence Clyborne, president of the Edmonds Downtown Alliance. “People don’t stay as long as they could.”

For years, local shops also have been serving as the de facto public restrooms. “If someone comes in with a small child in tow, they’re not going to turn them away,” Clyborne said. But maintaining restrooms used by the general public, as well as by customers, is an additional expense for local businesses, she said.

“It’s nice if you can point them to another option.”

The modular restrooms would be installed in a city-owned parking lot south of City Hall, close to downtown shops and restaurants.

Site preparation for ferry dock also could come in under budget Herald Writer

MUKILTEO — Demolition of a 1950s-era pier at a former military fuel storage site — the first step in building a new $129 million ferry terminal — is nearly complete. The work is expected to be wrapped up next month, a year ahead of schedule.

All that’s left to remove are a few rows of pilings near the

shore, said Nicole McIntosh, director of terminal engineering for the Washington State Ferries. “They should be out by early February.”

The pier removal project began in July and was scheduled to continue until next month. A six-month pause was scheduled in the work timetable so it would not interfere with migrating juvenile chinook, steelhead and bull trout.

Plans called for work to resume in August and be completed in February 2017. But the pier removal went smoother than expected, McIntosh said.

The contractor, Seattle’s Pacific Pile & Marine, “had the right equipment at the right time,” she said, “and the pilings came apart easier than we all expected.”

That allowed the contractor to complete the project a full year early, she said.

is an open question. It’s to the north across Wall Street and a block east of the existing 1960s-era courthouse that county leaders hope to replace because of safety issues and maintenance headaches.

Although the final figures aren’t yet in, the pier demolition project also is expected to come in under budget, at around $9.5 million. The demolition initially was estimated to cost about $11 million.

Completion of the pier removal project makes way for construction of the new ferry terminal in a city that’s home to the busiest route in the state ferry system.

Last year, the MukilteoClinton route was used by 2.23 million cars and trucks, accounting for 21.3 percent of the ferry system’s vehicle traffic, said Ian Sterling, ferry service spokesman Ian Sterling.

recommendations to the County Council this spring.

Leaders from the county and Everett city government also are promising better communication this time around.

Somers has said he’s not sure how things will shape up, but he hopes to see a proposal that’s less expensive than the $162 million plan that evolved under his predecessor, John Lovick, and was approved by the County Council. Council Chairman Terry Ryan favors a project that’s also nearer to the existing courthouse on the south side of Wall Street.

The owner of another

was second busiest, with 20.3 of all vehicle traffic and Seattle-Bainbridge was third, with 18.7 percent of all cars and trucks boarding the state’s ferries.

Even though the pier removal project was completed ahead of schedule, it doesn’t mean there will be a quicker completion of the new ferry terminal.

“They’re two separate projects,” McIntosh said.

The design of the new terminal will be about 60 percent complete by the end of February. Construction won’t begin until the middle of next year, McIntosh said. The new terminal is scheduled to open in mid-2019, replacing the current 60-year-old terminal.

The recently demolished pier was built in 1951. It served the U.S. Air Force’s bulk fuel

former law office on Rockefeller Avenue in October filed a damage claim against the county, a precursor to a lawsuit.

The owner of a third law office purchased through eminent domain is contemplating legal action.

Royce Ferguson, who was forced from a building where he’d practiced law for more than 20 years, said he recently abandoned a $2 million claim against the county over his personal losses. Ferguson, however, intends to pursue another part of his damage claim on behalf of all Snohomish County taxpayers.

To pay for courthouse

storage tanks, which closed in 1989.

The pier’s removal was complicated by debris on its surface which also had to be disposed. This included 12,000 feet of fuel lines, 800 40-gallon bags of asbestos, several tons of grass and other organic material that grew on the pier during the 26 years since it was closed, as well as railings, catwalks and mercury-filled lights.

The pier’s wooden pilings contained an estimated 7,000 tons of toxic creosote, about 4 percent of all the creosote left in Puget Sound, according to the ferry system. It was sent to a regional disposal site in Klickitat County.

Although the dilapidated pier was an eyesore, the removal project came under fire from some Mukilteo neighbors last

construction, the County Council in 2013 approved a property-tax hike then estimated to cost the average homeowner an extra $20 per year.

Ferguson is asking the county to refund those taxes and for the courts to prohibit the county from using the money for other programs.

“That is still a viable and possible lawsuit, for which I would have the extra time and energy to pursue, depending upon what the new administration does about correcting the courthouse mess and addressing the tax increase imposed upon taxpayers,” Ferguson

summer. Unusually hot temperatures caused fumes from the pier’s creosote-soaked pilings to periodically be pushed by winds into nearby neighborhoods. Some residents complained that it gave them headaches and made them nauseous.

A system to mist the air as the wooden pilings were removed was also used to try reduce odors, costing about $5,500, according to the ferry system.

Mukilteo Mayor Jennifer Gregerson said in an email that completing the pier removal work ahead of schedule meant work wouldn’t have to resume again in August. “It lessens the impact on our neighborhoods, which is a relief,” she said. “It’s definitely amazing that the project has gone so quickly.”

From Page A1

The project is expected to cost about $300,000, said Patrick Doherty, director of the city’s Economic Development and Community Services. The City Council has approved spending $260,000. The Edmonds Downtown Alliance pledged .... $10,000, roughly 10 percent of its annual budget, Clyborne said.

That still leaves about $30,000 to be raised, but city officials are optimistic it can happen.

“I can’t see any reason it can’t be in the summer, if not before summer,” Doherty said of when the project could be finished.

That would coincide with the increase in crowds that come to stroll the streets when the Edmonds Farmers Market opens in June.

“Weekends in the summer are extremely busy,” Clyborne said.

The city’s maintenance costs on the restrooms are expected to be about $30,000 a year, Mayor Dave Earling said.

“It’s a public service we should be providing,” he said. “It’s been a long-time problem.”

Ex-Monroe cop could get 14 months

By Scott North Herald Writer

EVERETT — A former Monroe police sergeant could be headed to prison after being convicted of sex crimes involving the teenage babysitter who watched his

children a dozen years ago.

Carlos Alberto Martinez, 61, should receive 14 months in prison, the top punishment he’s eligible to receive under state sentencing guidelines, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Lisa Paul said in court papers filed

last week.

Martinez is scheduled Thursday to be sentenced by Superior Court Judge Michael Downes.

A jury in November found Martinez guilty of voyeurism and possession of depictions of a minor engaged in sexually explicit

conduct. Both felonies stem from the his secretly videotaping a 15-year-old babysitter while she took showers in the bathroom of his former Monroe home in 2004.

He met the girl when she was 10 and he was teaching her drugabuse resistance class.

Martinez maintained the videotaping was legal and devoid of sexual motivation. He testified that he was looking for signs the girl was harming herself. He also told jurors that he did have a See SENTENCE, Page A8

Beneath the towering peak of Whitehorse, Alfred Mugho is making the most of his senior year at Darrington High School. Mugho moved to Darrington from Kenya in 2012, and is a leader at school and helps out on local civic projects.

Dedicated to Darrington

By Kari Bray Herald Writer

DARRINGTON — Alfred Mugho, 17, is a senior at Darrington High School. He moved to Darrington from Mombasa, Kenya, and is interested in science and technology. He’s a student leader at the high school and keeps up with sports, academics and volunteer work while preparing for college and staying in touch with his family overseas. He made it to state in wrestling last year, is president of the Associated Student Body this year and volunteers on projects like fixing up Old School park and creating murals or signs.

Question: Where are you from?

Answer: Where I’m from is a

long story. My parents are from Kenya. My dad moved over here for college and work, and then he moved back and met my mom. Then he moved back here again and now he’s in Nairobi, the capital (of Kenya). It’s just one of those amazing stories.

He actually broke out from the line of poverty because he came from a really poor tribe in Kenya and he ended up having a Ph.D. I moved here in 2012 with my aunt and uncle after I attended the Aga Khan Academy of Mombasa. I lived with them for about a year and then they had to move back to Kenya, too, so I was looking for a place to live and my friend helped me out.

He let me stay with his family.

Or I should say, his family let me

stay with him. I’ve been there ever since and I’ve been doing great. I love it.

Q: What made you decide you wanted to stay here in Darrington?

A: Well, first off I love how it’s a small school, a small community.

Everything is close-knit. And I love the environment. I love the surrounding area. It’s really the first place I came to when I got here and that always kind of gave it a special meaning to me. Plus I’ve made so many great friends.

Q: Were you born in Kenya?

A: I was born in Atlanta, Georgia. I’ve lived in Florida, too.

That’s where my sister was born.

I’ve lived all over.

Q: Are you able to stay in touch with you family very often?

A: I talk to my family over social media and stuff and they call me about once a week. My sister actually recently moved here, too. She’s in ninth grade. My dad came to visit in November. It was his first time back in 12 years.

He came to visit my host family because he’d never met any of my friends. He visited the school and everyone around town because we’re a small community. Everyone was really excited to meet him. I try to keep in touch with my family but it’s hard sometimes ... I used to go (to Kenya) every summer after school. I didn’t go last summer because it’s so expensive. It’s a few thousand dollars for a couple months. This was See SUPER, Page A4

Sky Valley logging plans draw criticism

By Amy Nile Herald Writer

front porch

GOLD BAR — Three sites slated to be logged near here have drawn the ire of conservationists.

Concerns about forest practices and the state selling timber to be cut by the highest bidder have spurred a new nonprofit.

Inessa Pearce, of Startup, has been talking to neighbors and voicing concerns to city and state leaders. She had the Skykomish Valley Environmental and

Economic Alliance registered as a nonprofit last month.

Pearce drummed up support from almost 300 people with an online petition to stop what she calls excessive logging near Wallace Falls State Park.

Jean Fike, manager of the Northwest region for the Department of Natural Resources, said logging might seem concentrated in the Sky Valley but there are limits on how much timber can be cut in one area.

“It’s important to understand

Overnight I-5 closures I-5 will be closed overnight this week for construction crews doing girder work on the 116th Street overpass in the MarysvilleTulalip area. The 116th Street off-ramps and on-ramps in both directions will be usable as a bypass during the closure periods.

these harvests are not on park land,” she said. “Trust lands are designated to earn money for the public.” The three sites to be harvested near Gold Bar are part of almost 3 million acres of state trust land the department manages. It is legally obligated to generate revenue for counties, schools, hospitals, libraries and other public agencies with its trust lands. The money from the planned timber harvests would benefit Snohomish County, local taxing districts and the state.

Southbound I-5 will be closed from 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. Wednesday to Thursday and Thursday to Friday. More information is wsdot. wa.gov/Northwest/Snohomish/ Construction.

Financial aid advice: The Lake Stevens School District is hosting a financial aid night for students and parents Thursday in the Lake Stevens High School Performing Arts Center, 2908 113th Ave

Pearce, a Russian translator for the Monroe and Northshore school districts, said the benefit doesn’t outweigh the damage to the local economy from the loss of tourism. She also rents cabins to travelers at her place along Sultan Startup Road, near a now barren hillside that was logged a few years ago.

“There’s a lot of logging going on and tourists don’t like it,” she said.

A guest from Everett Community College plans to talk about the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). High school counselors will be on hand afterward to help families fill out the student aid forms. Parents and students should bring tax information from 2014 and 2015.

Everett seeks grant applications: Everett is accepting Hotel Motel

here are construction tools on Miller Road near Stanwood. Could it be…?

Well, no.

Nancy Ross, of Stanwood, writes: “I am wondering about the Miller Road in Stanwood. It has been closed for years, but I have noticed the last few times I have driven by there that they are doing some work on it. Does this mean it will reopen sometime soon? That would be wonderful!”

Unfortunately, nothing has changed since we last discussed Miller Road in Street Smarts back in 2013.

Owen Carter, deputy director of Snohomish County Public Works, responds: “As Ms. Ross stated, Snohomish County is performing construction in the Miller Road vicinity. However, this work is to stabilize Pioneer Highway from sliding at this location through a technique called spiral soil nailing. This process requires a contractor to drive long steel rods (nails) through the top loose material and into the underlying hard material to stabilize Pioneer Highway.

“We are using the Miller Road roadway surface as a staging area to drive the spiral nails from.

Once this work is completed, plans are to reopen Miller Road this summer for pedestrian and bicyclist use only.

“As was stated in the July 1, 2013, Street Smarts column, Miller Road has been closed since it was damaged in March 2011. The road had a low volume of vehicles using it and at this time Snohomish County does not have funds to reconstruct it.”

A project website about the embankment repair work has been updated to reflect the latest information.

New pavement on 196th coming in March Joanne Davis, of Lynnwood, writes about a rough ride on westbound 196th Street SW (Highway 524) in Lynnwood, particularly at the intersection with Scriber Lake Road. A new signal was installed there, one of the Transportation Benefit District projects.

OBITUARIES AND MEMORIALS

From Page A3

the first time I saw my dad in a year and a half, so it was nice. He won’t be able to make it to my graduation, probably. I mean, maybe he can, but it’s not likely. But that’s OK. There will be positive times in the future for him to see.

Q: What are your favorite subjects in school?

A: I really love civics. I love knowing about the world and stuff. And I enjoy math and I love science. Science by far is my favorite. Science and technology.

Q: What is it about science and technology that appeals to you?

A: I’ve always been really into cars. I always dreamed of growing up to be a car designer or something. That stemmed into me really enjoying technology in general. I love computers. I love understanding and knowing how things work and being creative.

Q: Do you plan to go to college?

A: I’ve applied to the University of Washington, the University of Washington-Bothell and I plan to apply to Western Washington, too. I’m thinking about studying computer management information systems or possibly mechanical or civil engineering. That’s just for my major. For my minor I’m planning on having business or marketing or something that complements it.

Q: What’s your goal after school?

A: My ideas have changed a lot over the last two year. My ultimate goal is just to change the world in some positive way, to make an impact on it, and to give back to all those people who have given to me. So my community here in Darrington, my family that’s done so much for me, my friends who have helped me out with places to stay. My goal is just to improve the world and improve the state of humanity, I guess, in whatever way I might do that. Maybe one day I’ll make a car that solves the fuel crisis. Somehow, I want to do something good for the world.

Prisoners freed; new sanctions Obama issues new punishment for Iran after ballistic missile launch

By Julie Pace and Kevin Freking

Utah: Uber copter rides

JAKE MAY / THE FLINT JOURNAL-MLIVE.COM

A teary-eyed Rep. Dan Kildee, D-Mich., watches an address by President Barack Obama regarding the release of American prisoners from Iran, including Marine and Flint Central High School graduate Amir Hekmati, on Sunday in Flint, Michigan. Kildee was to travel to Germany on Sunday with members of Hekmati’s family to see him for the first time in more than four years.

MARTIAL TREZZINI / KEYSTONE

Unidentified people stand next to a Dassault Falcon jet of the Swiss army air force at Geneva airport in Switzerland on Sunday. A U.S. government plane waits nearby to bring back the men freed in Iran the day before.

sentences or awaiting trial were being granted clemency. He emphasized that they were not charged with terrorism or any violent offenses.

“They’re civilians, and their release is a one-time gesture to Iran given the unique opportunity offered by this moment and the larger circumstances at play,” Obama said.

Obama said the U.S and Iran had also resolved a longstanding dispute over money Iran used to buy military equipment from the U.S. before the two countries broke ties. Iran will get more than $400 million, plus $1.3 billion in interest.

The White House said its lawyers assessed that the U.S. could have faced a “significantly higher judgment” if the

case continued.

“There was no benefit to the U.S. is dragging this out,” Obama said.

Obama used his Sunday morning statement from the White House to speak directly to the Iranian people: “We have a rare chance to pursue a new path — a different, better future that delivers progress for both our peoples and the wider world.”

Obama said Iran has a vibrant culture that has so much to contribute to the world in commerce, science and the arts, but “your government’s threats and actions to destabilize your region have isolated Iran from much of the world.”

The Obama administration

said it was prepared to test whether additional cooperation with Iran was possible, most notably in resolving the civil war in Syria.

White House officials said during a briefing held after the president’s address that Iran could play a significant role in resolving the Syrian civil war, but profound differences exist.

They said Iran needs to understand the fighting won’t be resolved as long as Syrian President Bashar Assad remains in power.

The officials said they know Iran is not going to dramatically change its actions in the next year or two.

“If Iran does act in a more constructive fashion, it would be a positive development in resolving difficult issues,” the White House officials said. “If they don’t, we will continue to enforce our sanctions and continue to have very strong differences.”

Three of the four American detainees — Washington Post reporter Jason Rezaian, former U.S. Marine Amir Hekmati and pastor Saeed Abedini — arrived in Germany en route to a U.S. military hospital. They will return home after medical evaluations.

The fourth, Nosratollah Khosravi-Roodsari, opted to remain in Iran, officials said.

A fifth American, student Matthew Trevithick, who had been detained in Iran for roughly 40 days, was released separately.

Clinton, Sanders spar over guns, health care

By Lisa Lerer and Nancy Benac Associated Press

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Turning up the temperature, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders tangled repeatedly in Sunday’s presidential debate over who’s tougher on gun control and Wall Street and who’s got a better vision for the future of health care in America. It was the last Democratic matchup before voting begins in two weeks, and both sides were eager to rumble as polls showed the race tightening.

Clinton rapped Sanders, the Vermont senator, for voting repeatedly with the National Rifle Association, and then welcomed his weekend reversal of position to support legislation that would deny gun manufacturers legal immunity. She rattled off a list of provisions that she said Sanders had supported in line with the NRA: “He voted against the Brady Bill five times. He voted against what we call the Charleston loophole. He voted to let guns go on Amtrak, guns to go into national parks.”

Sanders, in turn, said Clinton’s assertion that he kowtowed to the gun lobby

Allegiant Air exec to step down LAS VEGAS — The chief operating officer of Allegiant Air is resigning.

KTNV-TV reported that Steve Harfts, 52, is leaving after serving in the position for about a year.

His resignation follows questions about the airline’s safety record and several incidents involving emergency landings and mechanical issues. The airline recently ordered additional training for pilots and dispatchers after a plane had to land because it was low on fuel.

Allegiant said in a statement that the leadership change will allow the airline to refocus on operational needs.

Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The United States on Sunday imposed sanctions over Iran’s ballistic missile testing even as President Barack Obama hailed the release of five Americans from Tehran’s custody and the implementation of a nuclear deal he hopes will stand among his lasting foreign policy achievements.

Obama pledged to counter vigorously Iran’s “destabilizing behavior” across the Mideast even while the U.S. engages with the Islamic Republic. After the Americans had been freed, Obama announced economic sanctions against 11 individuals and entities as a result of a ballistic missile launch in October.

“We’re not going to waver in the defense of our security or that of our allies and partners,” Obama said.

With the sanctions announcement, Obama also sought to counter criticism from GOP lawmakers and presidential candidates that his actions had appeased a nation that has aided the spread of Islamic extremism.

“It reflects a pattern we’ve seen in the Obama administration over and over again of negotiating with terrorists and making deals and trades that endanger U.S. safety and security,” Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas said on “Fox News Sunday.”

“Our enemies now know that if you can capture an American, you can get something meaningful in exchange for it,” Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

But Obama said he decided “that a strong confident America could advance our national security by engaging directly with the Iranian government.”

Democratic lawmakers who supported the agreement applauded the sanctions announced Sunday.

Five Democratic senators said in a joint letter to Obama that failure to impose the restrictions could encourage Tehran to violate international obligations with impunity.

The Obama administration worked for nearly 14 months behind the scenes to negotiate the prisoner trade. Iran also agreed to work to locate American Robert Levinson, who vanished during a trip to Iran in 2007.

In a reciprocal move, Obama said that six Iranian-Americans and one Iranian serving

ACROSS THE U.S.

was “very disingenuous” and pointed to his lifetime rating of a D- from the NRA. On health care, Sanders released his plan for a government-run single-payer plan just hours before the debate, and used his opening statement to call for health care “for every man, woman and child as a right.” Clinton, by contrast, urged less sweeping action to build on President Barack Obama’s health care plan by reducing out-of-pocket costs and control spending on prescription drugs.

Clinton suggested Sanders’ approach was dangerous — and pie-in-the-sky unrealistic.

“With all due respect, to start over again with a whole new debate is something that would set us back,” Clinton said.

The two tangled over financial policy, too, with Sanders suggesting Clinton won’t be tough enough on Wall Street given the big contributions and speaking fees she’s accepted from the financial sector.

Clinton, in turn, faulted Sanders’ past votes to deregulate financial markets and ease up on federal oversight.

Then, she took a step back to put those differences in a different perspective.

“We’re at least having a vigorous debate about reining in Wall Street,” she declared. “The Republicans want to give them more power.”

Gun control has emerged as a central theme in the race, with Clinton citing the issue as one of the major differences between the candidates.

On Saturday night, Sanders announced his support for legislation that would reverse a 2005 law he had supported that granted gun manufacturers legal immunity.

His changed position came in a statement after days of criticism from Clinton, who had attempted to use his previous vote to undercut his liberal image. Clinton cast the latest move as a “flip-flop.” Sanders said he backed the 2005 law in part because of provisions that require child safety locks on guns and ban armor-piercing ammunition.

Turning to national security, both Sanders and Clinton voiced strong support for Obama’s diplomatic overtures to Iran and opposition to sending U.S. ground troops into Syria. Clinton defended her outreach to Russia early in her term as secretary of state, but hesitated when asked to

describe her relationship with Vladimir Putin, whose return to the Russian presidency heralded the worsening of U.S.Russian relations.

“My relationship with him — it’s interesting,” Clinton said to laughs in the debate hall.

“It’s one, I think, of respect.”

But she added it was critical to constantly stand up to Putin, describing him as a bully who “will take as much as he possibly can.”

Sanders was asked about his previous criticism of Bill Clinton’s past sexual behavior. He called the former president’s behavior “deplorable” but said he wants to focus on issues “not Bill Clinton’s personal life.” Clinton maintained a tight smile throughout that exchange.

The third participant in the debate, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, tried persistently to insert himself into the conversation.

He focused on his record as Maryland’s governor and accused both Clinton and Sanders of being inconsistent on gun control The debate was sponsored

by NBC, YouTube and the Congressional Black Caucus Institute.

European aerospace giant Airbus will cooperate with U.S. ride-hailing service Uber Technologies to provide on-demand flights with its H125 and H130 helicopters, Airbus chief executive Tom Enders said. The service will be first tested at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, which opens Thursday, Enders told a technology conference in Munich on Sunday.

The cooperation with Uber comes as Enders seeks to push innovation at the Toulouse, France-based company that makes everything from civil airplanes to military transporters.

Hawaii: Search continues The search for 12 Marines missing after two helicopters crashed off Oahu entered its third day with no plans Sunday to call off or suspend the massive effort, the Coast Guard said.

While high surf complicated the mission for rescuers on the water, a green laser off Haleiwa Beach Park on Saturday night struck a Coast Guard plane, forcing crew members to alter search patterns. The crew of the HC-130 plane wasn’t exposed, but they changed their search pattern to avoid being hit again.

Rescuers have been searching roundthe-clock since the Coast Guard was notified late Thursday of the crash by a civilian who saw the aircraft flying and then disappear and a fireball. The CH53E helicopters were carrying six crew members each.

AROUND THE WORLD Yemen: 7 die in attack Seven people were killed Sunday in a suicide bomb attack targeting the head of security in President Abd Rabu Mansour Hadi’s temporary capital of Aden, witnesses said. Aden security chief Shalal Ali Shayea was not injured in the attack on his house. Two of the security chief’s guards and five passers-by were killed in the attack, carried out by a bomber in an explosive-rigged car, eye witnesses said. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, although the bombing bore the hallmarks of Islamic State.

Iraq: 3 Americans missing U.S. and Iraqi authorities are searching for three Americans reported missing in Baghdad, officials said Sunday. At least one report said the Americans had been kidnapped by gunmen, but it could not be confirmed.

“We are aware of reports that American citizens are missing in Iraq,” said John Kirby, a State Department spokesman.

“The safety and security of American citizens overseas is our highest priority.

We are working with the full cooperation of the Iraqi authorities to locate and recover the individuals.”

A senior Iraqi security official told CNN that the Americans, apparently contractors, had gone missing two days ago. A spokesman for Baghdad’s Joint Operations Command said Sunday that the three missing persons were Iraqis who had acquired U.S. citizenship. That information also could not be confirmed.

Burkina Faso: National mourning period begins Burkina Faso began three days of national mourning Sunday and President Roch Marc Christian Kabore said security would be stepped up in the capital and the country’s borders after al-Qaida militants from neighboring Niger killed at least 28 people in an attack on a hotel and cafe popular with foreigners. Kabore also announced on the national broadcaster, Burkina 24, that security forces would be stepping up their efforts to thwart future attacks.

Fitness with a breath of fresh air The Experience Momentum gym focuses on the whole person

By Patricia S. Guthrie For The Herald Business Journal

Turns out converting a former auto body shop into another kind of body business enhances local air quality.

“Most gyms have no windows so there’s no fresh air. Here we can roll up the sides because it was a garage. It sure helps with what I call gym breath,” jokes Kelly Tysland as she gives a tour of Experience Momentum, a fitness, nutrition and rehabilitation facility in Lynnwood that she owns with her husband, Shanon Tysland.

Both have impressive sports credentials; she is an Olympic bronze medalist, he is a triathlete.

Both are personal trainers.

A love of sports and physical fitness and concern for the environment brought the couple together in 2005. Two years later, they decided to act on their mutual desire to help others pursue their “better selves” by opening a wellness center focusing on physical therapy, nutrition and fitness for all, from the average out-of-shape slug to the elite endurance athlete.

“We’re here to treat the whole person,” Shanon Tysland, 40, said. “Someone might come in for physical therapy because their hip hurts. But we’ll also ask, ‘How’s your nutrition? Tell me about it.’”

The first Experience Momentum space in Lynnwood measured 3,000-square feet.

Now, there’s more than triple the room — 10,000 square feet at 4030 Alderwood Mall Blvd. — to stretch, sweat, bend, balance, relax, recover, revive.

In a small room downstairs, yoga classes are under way. In the front room, physical therapists work on people with sports- or work-related injuries. Behind a half-dozen closed doors, sports massages are given and nutritionists confer with clients. In the back, a huge empty gym awaits the popular afternoon CrossFit crowds.

One wall is lined with mats, weights and medicine balls while another is scrawled with directions for “WOD,” or Workout of the Day. In a back enclosed room, 20 stationary bikes and slots for people’s own bicycles are ready for CycleFit classes.

Bearing no resemblance to its former bent and dent body banger self, the interior is white, wide and welcoming with earth-tone accents and a large proclamation stating

the business is part of a global partnership called “One Percent for the Planet.” Shanon said that 1 percent of revenue is given to environmental nonprofits, such as the Washington Water Trust, Nature Conservancy and Plant with Purpose. More than a dozen Experience Momentum employees recently traveled to the Dominican Republic to help replant trees on farms.

The facility has more of a friendly, intimate feel to it than the typical warehouse-size workout centers. Instead of a long line of treadmills, bicycles and

elliptical machines filled with silent, sweating men and women plugged into their own worlds and individual routines, Experience Momentum emphasizes group fitness through classes that run from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Word has gotten out about Experience Momentum’s antigravity treadmill, which is used by people in need of rehabilitation after surgery or marathoners who need to work out without the pressure of pounding pavement.

The machine mimics the weightlessness experienced by

astronauts but keeps a person’s feet on a treadmill. After being zipped into a clear plastic sealed skirt, a person’s weight is measured. Then, in small increments, the machine is calibrated to reduce a person’s weight by 20 percent, 30 percent, 50 percent.

After a few bursts of a strange sensation of pressurized air filling the enclosed skirt, life as you know it gets lighter.

“It really helps with people who’ve had joint surgery and need to get stronger but can’t put full weight on their legs,” Shanon Tysland said. “We reduce

their weight and they can run on the treadmill. It’s when you step off the machine and walk a few steps when you can really feel the difference.”

Kelly Tysland, a native of Shoreline, participated in the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy as part of the U.S. women’s ice hockey team that won a bronze medal. She was on the University of Minnesota’s women’s ice hockey team that won back-to-back national championships.

It was in fourth grade, when she was Kelly Stephens, that she first stepped onto the ice. In high school, she moved to Langley, British Columbia, to attend Delphi Academy, a school with 160 students, only five of them girls but one that wanted her to play on the boys hockey team.

Kelly Tysland later was certified as a massage therapist and personal trainer. The couple met in 2005. They decided to get married and open their fitness business in the same month, September 2007.

“Don’t really recommend that as a business model,” Shanon Tysland joked.

It was just the two of them when they first opened their doors, wondering if anyone was going to check out the new fitness center in town.

Now, there’s more than 35 employees, and between 350 to 400 people every week taking dozens of classes. Their family has grown as well. The couple now has two young children, ages 5 and 2. “My grown-up job now is mom,” Kelly Tysland, 32, said. “But I’m still interested in training female athletes and encouraging girls in sports.”

Shanon and Kelly said they chose the name Experience Momentum for their business because it sums up their philosophy.

“Really, it’s all about providing a space to create breakthroughs in people’s lives,” Shanon Tysland said. “And here’s my secret. We try and trick people into pushing themselves.”

So if you show up at Experience Momentum with an appointment to have your sore back treated, or your diet tweaked, expect a question like: What are your thoughts on trying a triathlon?

“It’s something they had never thought of,” Shanon Tysland.

“But now they are a triathlete. We try and introduce new possibilities and get people lit up about living life.”

What to do when business pressures seem out of control

D

o you ever feel like you lose control over what is happening with your business? At times you are like a boat in the ocean being pushed around by the wind and the waves?

I sure did.

In the beginning with my business, I was slow to recognize the importance of drawing a line between what you can control and what you cannot. It is one of those critical lessons all entrepreneurs need to learn. I wasted valuable time, energy and money trying to fix things totally out of my control.

I often felt the loss of control with external factors such as dealing with suppliers and the

ups and downs of the economy, managing teenage employees, marketing against much larger competitors and navigating government regulations.

Specifically, for me, it meant struggling with my main food service supplier that would too often not load an important item on the truck when delivering product to my store.

Or managing the bottom line when cheese prices would skyrocket 15 to 20 percent in just one day based on the commodity traders in Chicago anticipating the impact of a heat wave in the Midwest on milk production.

Or working with one of my best employees having significant difficulties outside of work

Or trying to effectively market to potential customers when my two top competitors have an advertising war to see who could offer a pizza for the lowest possible price.

Here is what I have learned:

fix everything.

Develop strategies to minimize the impact of negative external factors, but also recognize it’s easy to get sidetracked dealing with these factors without much benefit to business success.

Operate with uncertainty Because you can’t control all aspects of your business, work to get comfortable with the uncertain nature of being an entrepreneur.

You absolutely, positively must develop the skills to operate in the gray areas with incomplete, inaccurate and untimely information. Critical decisions are often not black

The development of this skill set will take time and patience if this isn’t one of your strengths.

IN OUR VIEW | Life-saving gift

Organ donation on increase Here’s some encouraging news: For the first time, more than 30,000 organ transplants were performed in the United States in 2015, according to data from the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (which is part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.) That’s a 4.9 percent increase over 2014, and continues a three-year trend of annual record numbers.

Approximately 81 percent of the transplants (24,982) involved organs from deceased donors, who can donate multiple organs. Nineteen percent (5,986) were made possible by living donors.

Because organ donations are so greatly needed, and because they save lives, the increased

numbers are a real cause for appreciation, and hope.

“This landmark achievement is a testament to the generosity of the American public to help others through donation, and their trust in the transplant system to honor their life-saving gift,” said Betsy Walsh, J.D., president of OPTN and United Network for Organ Sharing.

Despite this good news, the need, which continues to grow, still far exceeds the supply. Here are some facts: In the U.S., 121,756 people need a lifesaving organ transplant (total waiting list candidates). Of those, 78,252 people are active waiting list candidates.

Every 10 minutes, someone

is added to the national transplant waiting list.

On average, 22 people die each day while waiting for a transplant.

One organ donor can save eight lives.

Education and outreach remain the key to increasing the number of organ donations. Surveys have shown that most Americans support organ donation, but only about 40 percent of the adult population register as organ donors. Social networks like Facebook, and most recently, Tinder, allow users to identify themselves as organ donors, so family and friends are aware of one’s wishes, in addition to the needed donor card.

To encourage live donations,

California has created a live donor registry for kidneys, and locally, Swedish Medical Center’s Organ Transplant and Liver Center includes a Benevolent Community Donor Program, which allows people to anonymously give a kidney to a patient who is on the Swedish waiting list.

The logistics around the extraction, transportation and transplanting of an organ has greatly improved — to the extent that virtually no organs are refused or thrown away due to logistical reasons, Time reported.

Sign up to be an organ donor. Make sure your family and friends are aware of your wishes. And encourage them to sign up as well.

We urge you to vote on Feb. 9.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■ARLINGTON

Replacement levy is not a new tax We have asked you to vote on the Feb. 9 Educational Programs and Operations Levy (formerly called a M&O levy) for the Arlington School District. As your elected representatives, we do not take this action lightly. We understand the fiscal responsibility that is placed squarely on the shoulders of each board member.

While we realize any kind of tax is a burden, we also must acknowledge that the state does not fully pay for all of the programs that it mandates, nor that our community has determined that we need. In order to fund all of our day-to-day operational expenses, we are forced to ask our local voters to fund 24 percent of our current educational programs.

We want to stress to the Arlington School District voters that this is a replacement levy — not a new or additional tax. The $3.56 per thousand will replace the rate that you are currently paying.

We want to also assure you that, if the Legislature finds a way to reduce the need for local levies, we will roll back the amount collected accordingly.

What does this money do?

It pays for 35 percent of our school transportation costs, 30 percent of our staffing needs, and 100 percent of all extracurricular activities. It also funds technology, special education, and teaching materials.

CLARIFICATION

Wednesday’s editorial in The Herald regarding the state Open Public Meetings Act referred to an executive session of a House committee and said the meeting was closed to the public. While for most government boards and public agencies, executive sessions are those that can be closed to the public, the term in the Legislature refers to sessions where bills are to be voted on. Those sessions are open to the public.

COMMENTARY | Teen driving

Smartphones may keep teens off the roads

By Peter Orszag Bloomberg View

O

ver the winter break, my teenage children observed, based on their friends and acquaintances, that young adults are much less eager to get their driver’s licenses than they once were, and that in general fewer young people have them. I was skeptical at first, but it turns out they’re right. In 1983, 92 percent of Americans aged 20 to 24 had a driver’s license. In 2014, just 77 percent did. Were it not for that decline, 3.5 million more young people would be drivers today.

The change is occurring across young age categories, with sharp drops among teenagers. The share of 17-year-olds with driver’s licenses, for example, was down to 45 percent in 2014,

As Americans increasingly live in cities, it’s easier to get by without a driver’s license.

from 55 percent in 2001. And the rates are falling for young men and young women alike.

Total vehicle miles driven by young drivers have plummeted, not only because a smaller share of them are driving but also because miles per young driver have also declined. In 1990, each driver aged 16 to 19 drove an average

of almost 8,500 miles per year.

In 2009, it was less than 6,500.

Thanks to this and to safer cars, fatal car accidents involving teenagers are falling sharply, even though they remain the leading source of death in that age category. And fewer drivers also generally means less greenhouse gas emissions.

Why is this happening? One factor is the rise of laws that limit teens’ ability to drive by themselves, which might make getting a license as soon as you can less appealing. A related possibility is that the changes in the driving laws are causing faulty measurement.

Yet these things can’t explain the decline among 20- to 24-year-olds.

So we are left with three explanations. One, favored by researchers at the University of Michigan, is the rise of social media. If you can connect with

friends over Snapchat and Instagram, “there’s less of a need to get together by driving to popular hangouts or by cruising.” The second is economic.

Teenagers asked why they don’t have a license often cite the expense; parents are often concerned about the additional cost to insurance. A final possibility is ongoing urbanization; as Americans increasingly live in cities, it’s easier to get by without a driver’s license.

Whatever the causes, the change since my generation came of age is stark. For many young people today, there’s a new rite of passage that’s bigger than learning to drive: getting your first phone number.

Peter Orszag, a Bloomberg View columnist, was formerly President Obama’s director of the Office of Management and Budget.

Trump’s appeal to some easy to understand

G

od help me. I have come to appreciate why some Republican voters like Donald Trump. It’s because he embodies New York in all its ostentation and swagger. When punched, he punches back. He owns his anger. He looks as if he is having a blast.

At Thursday night’s Fox Business Network GOP debate, Trump readily admitted that he had DEBRA J. SAUNDERS begun to question whether rival Sen. Ted Cruz is a “natural born” citizen because Cruz was closing in on Trump in Iowa polls. He’s shameless, yet you cannot help but admire someone who butts heads with the way politics usually works and who leaves the political establishment woozy and seeing stars while he happily straightens his tie.

Don’t get me wrong; I think Trump’s sound-bite policy about banning Muslims from entering the country runs contrary to the national interest. As former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush noted, the next president will need a coalition of Sunni Muslims and Kurds to destroy the Islamic State group.

Trump’s remarks about Mexican immigrants — many being “criminals, drug dealers, rapists” — should come back to haunt him if he wins the GOP primary.

But you have to hand this much to Trump: He’s lively, even if he doesn’t win every round. When Trump debates, it is not a rehearsed exchange of talking points.

On the stage, Cruz bested Trump when he recalled that his “friend Donald” had lawyers who vouchsafed for Cruz’s qualified citizenship credentials in September.

“Now, since September, the Constitution hasn’t changed,” Cruz said to laughter and applause, “but the poll numbers have.”

When Trump counterpunched, the audience booed. The New York Times — so excoriated by Cruz during the debate — reported, “Cruz did not just dominate much of the Republican debate, he slashed, he mocked, he charmed and he outmaneuvered everybody else onstage — but none as devastatingly and as thoroughly as this campaign’s most commanding performer, Donald J. Trump.”

Some pundits breezily pronounced Cruz the winner of the “birther” round.

They forget that Trump is a master at sowing seeds of doubt. In 2011, birtherism grew stronger around doubts about President Barack Obama’s birthplace. This time, Trump is questioning the “natural born” credentials of Cruz, who was born in Canada to an American mother. Cruz argued that it has been a long-standing practice to consider the children of American citizens to be “natural born” wherever they are born. Though that may be a standard interpretation, the law is not settled.

Trump has uncertainty on his side.

Later, The Donald struck back. Moderator Maria Bartiromo asked Cruz just what the senator meant when he said Trump “embodies New York values.” This is where Cruz should have backed off and said that though New York is not a particularly conservative town, he sees much to admire in the city’s people and their vitality after 9/11. Instead, Cruz stood by his Big Apple-bashing. Trump riposted, “When the World Trade Center came down, I saw something that no place on earth could have handled more beautifully, more humanely than New York.”

People who rarely agree with Trump were cheering him from their living rooms.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was fiery and counterintuitive. His strongest moment of the night came when he pushed back against Sen. Marco Rubio’s charges that the Jersey guy had flipped on Common Core curriculum, gun control and more. Christie likes to contrast the obstacles he faces as a governor to the easy road of a headline-seeking senator.

He concluded by noting that Rubio once had good things to say about him. “I like Marco Rubio,” said Christie in a tone more in disappointment than in anger.

But Rubio put himself next in line behind Cruz when he tossed out a list of areas in which Cruz has flip-flopped. For example, Cruz once supported legislation to double the number of green cards for immigrants and increased H-1B visas for skilled foreign workers by 500 percent. No more. Most recently, Cruz flipped from praising NSA leaker Edward Snowden for his “considerable public service” in 2013 to branding Snowden a “traitor.” In an email, veteran GOP strategist Tucker Eskew described Rubio’s attacks as “energized and very effective.”

This primary has been haunted by one big question: Which candidate can beat Trump? Can anyone?

“I realize there was a project and digging up was part of that but my issue is the poor paving job,” Davis writes. “It’s terrible. I have to practically stop to go through the intersection.”

Thankfully, this is not anyone’s idea of a final paving job.

Another project in the area has crews working on the roadway. New pavement is several weeks off.

“The construction and pavement disruption she is referring to is in connection to our new Lift Station and Force Main 16 project,” said Julie Moore, a spokeswoman for the city. “Finishing the project is weather dependent. They need to have a stretch of weather above a certain threshold for the new pavement, so we are anticipating to get this completed in March.

“Our contractor can go in and make some temporary improvements to help with drivability, but for now drivers should use caution when traveling this area,” Moore said.

OK for trucks to unload in turn lanes Carmen Carpenter, of Lynnwood, asks: “Why are the car dealerships allowed to park their trucks in the turn lanes along Highway 99 (between 164th and 188th) in order to unload vehicles? Shouldn’t this be done on their own property? It seems to cause a bit of confusion on

a regular basis. Isn’t this considered a no parking area? Or does it depend on how much money you are worth or the size of your company?”

Julie Moore, a spokeswoman for the city, responds: “At this time, the city does not have a policy or law against car dealerships unloading vehicles along Highway 99. Our traffic engineer, Paul Coffelt, currently asks that car dealerships use the proper traffic control devices such as cautionary signs to alert drivers that there is work being done ahead. At this point we are asking for voluntary compliance from our local dealerships.”

Toll rates now posted online You can now check toll rates for the I-405 express lanes before you head out the door. The same rate information that appears on electronic reader boards is now fed to an online map, at tinyurl. com/405tollrates.

Keep in mind, though, that toll rates are calculated every 5 minutes, so the rates could change by the time you get to the on-ramp. The online map also lags the information posted over roadways by up to 5 minutes.

Customers are charged the rate that is on the roadway sign when they enter the express lanes.

sexual relationship with the former babysitter, but that didn’t start until she was 18, and well beyond the age of consent. At the time, she was a senior in high school and Martinez was married and 52.

The young woman wound up as Martinez’ live-in girlfriend in Texas, but the decision to move away with him “was borne

out of years of manipulation and grooming by the defendant,” Paul wrote.

“When she ultimately got the courage to leave the relationship, the defendant followed and harassed her.”

Although jurors found Martinez guilty of voyeurism, they also determined prosecutors had not proven the young woman learned she was spied upon within the statute of limitations necessary for

presumed dead. A woman’s body was found in the burned-out house.

The Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office on Sunday had not yet released her name or cause of death. The case is being investigated by major crimes detectives from the

filing the case in 2013. That didn’t erase the conviction, Paul wrote, it just means it can’t be factored into his sentence.

His punishment, then, rests solely on his keeping the secret tapes of the then-teenage girl. Those recordings were something he “coveted” and kept for his sexual gratification, Paul wrote.

In addition to the prison time, she asked that Martinez’ sentence require him to register as a sex offender, that he be ordered to stay away from the woman for

the next 10 years, that he undergo a sexual deviancy evaluation, and that he follow through on any treatment recommendation while on community supervision. That monitoring should last for up to four years after confinement, Paul wrote.

Martinez plans an appeal. Attorney Mark Mestel earlier asked Downes to allow his client to remain free on bond. That’s an issue yet to be decided.

Log: Public comment until Tuesday From Page A3

Pearce wants the state to leave more trees when it thins forests.

The state is taking public comment on a 116-acre timber harvest known as the “Dyno” sale until Jan. 19. The proposed site is 2 miles east of Gold Bar. The estimated value for the timber has yet to be determined, said Bob Redling, Department of Natural Resources spokesman.

Another 187-acre timber harvest, known as the “Singletary” sale, was approved in 2014. The auction was delayed after conservation groups and county officials shared their worries about preserving Wallace Falls

and the state park, and protecting trails that are being built in the Reiter Foothills Forest area.

Fike said the state plans to move forward with the sale. The timber was appraised at $1.8 million in 2014, but that figure is likely to change by the time it is auctioned, she said.

The state doesn’t have an estimate of when that might happen. It is waiting for a permit from the county to build a bridge over May Creek before proceeding with the sale.

The state auctioned timber on a 129-acre site known as “Moonbeam” in April for about $422,000.

The buyer has until Sept.

30, 2017 to cut the timber

on the property, located about 3 miles northeast of Gold Bar. Pearce is also concerned about the use of pesticides.

She sent a letter dated Dec. 29 to state, county and city officials and a timber company protesting spraying of chemicals in Sky Valley.

She’s been worried about her well water and pollution since the state allowed the timber company Springboard Wallace Falls to use a helicopter to spray pesticides over about 1,000 acres near her home in September.

Stephen Bernath is chairman of the Forest Practices Board, which regulates the spraying of pesticides along with other state and federal

agencies. He said strict rules are in place to make sure public health is not “significantly damaged” when chemicals are used.

Bernath pointed out that the chemicals Pearce is concerned about are all approved pesticides and they were applied in compliance with the law.

Chemicals that seep into groundwater are not used in areas where that might be a problem, he said.

There’s a state Senate workshop on the use of pesticides and herbicides on state lands at 1:30 p.m.

Wednesday in Olympia.

Pearce and officials from the Forest Practices Board plan to take part in the meeting.

Disrespectful teen can pose harm to mom

DAILY CROSSWORD

Q: My ex-husband and I have pretty much 50-50 custody of our 15-year-old son, who has become infected with his father’s disrespect for me. When he’s with me, he makes it very clear that he does not want to be here. He refuses to do anything I tell him to do or accept any attempt at discipline from me, curses at me, and has even pushed me on a couple of occasions. I believe his father is a very bad influence, which is the only reason I continue to exercise my custody rights. Is there anything I can do to remedy this situation?

A: I seriously doubt it. That very blunt answer is based on lots of experience serving as a courtappointed expert in custody and visitation disputes as well as a good amount of experience doing post-divorce counseling with parents.

If your son was at least five years younger, you might be able to exercise a reasonable amount of effective discipline over him while he was with you and “counterbalance” your ex-husband’s influence in the process. But I give that zero chance of happening with a 15-year-old who — assuming you are representing matters

JOHN ROSEMOND LIVING WITH CHILDREN accurately — is being successfully manipulated by his father into being used as a weapon against you.

A 15-year-old who is cursing and pushing an adult female qualifies as an abuser. Be very clear, please, that you have done nothing to justify that sort of treatment. Furthermore, your son has a high likelihood of transferring that abusive attitude and behavior into future relationships with females. More immediately, however, he is also likely to escalate his mistreatment of you as time goes on. Given that you describe a father who is encouraging his son’s disrespect, you are already at significant risk of physical harm from your son.

You need to protect yourself.

The only way to do that, I’m sorry to say, is for you to do what your

son wants you to do: stop requiring him to spend time with you.

He has, after all, surpassed the age at which most family courts would allow him significant voice if not final say in the issue of his custody.

In light of his anger toward you, I encourage you to pull back completely. Give him plenty of time and space to cool off, but don’t expect that to happen any time soon. Don’t even call him. Simply tell him that you love him and are going to always be there for him if he should ever, in the future, want a relationship with you.

The problem, of course, is a father who is not teaching that one of the primary virtues of valid masculinity is respect for women.

The reality is that your son’s attitude toward you is not likely to improve until he’s old enough to understand that he’s being manipulated.

I give that advice knowing that for you to follow it will involve considerable pain, even guilt. If my experience serves me well, however, it will involve far less pain than if you continue to try to take responsibility for something that’s not your doing and fix something only your son can fix, if he ever decides to fix it.

Couple’s boozing threatens friendship Dear Abby: My wife and I have been friends with another couple, “Bill” and “Emily,” for 20 years.

We usually have dinner together once every four to six weeks.

In the past, everyone enjoyed a cocktail or a glass of wine with dinner and nobody overdid it. But over the last year or so, it is clear that they have started drinking earlier in the day, before we arrive. They each consume multiple drinks while my wife and I are still on our first. Emily often is noticeably drunk within the first hour and excuses herself to go to bed while Bill continues drinking.

Often dinner plans at their house or at a nearby restaurant must be canceled because of this behavior.

How do we tell these otherwise nice friends that they drink too much? — Unwilling Bartender In Arizona Dear Bartender: The next time Bill and Emily come to your home for dinner, make sure your liquor is locked up and don’t serve any. If you are asked about the omission, you and your wife should tell them that YOU have decided to “cut back” on your alcohol consumption because it will enable you to enjoy their company more. (I wish you could videotape their reaction.)

It will be interesting to see if you still enjoy their company when they are sober, and vice versa. If they take offense and decide to socialize with you less often, don’t take it personally. Realize that alcohol now rules their lives.

I do not think you should try to perform an “intervention” because it doesn’t appear you are close enough to them to do it RIP HAYWIRE

Dear Abby: I was married for 27 years before my divorce. The ending of my marriage was both painful and unexpected. I was in therapy throughout the divorce and for some time after.

Later I moved to another state so I would no longer have to risk running into him. But just when I think I have moved on, something is said or something happens that brings my pain and anger back to the surface.

I heard once that when one is in a serious relationship, that it can take twice as long to get over it. Is this the same for a marriage?

Can I expect it to take 2 times 27 years before I am finally over my ex and my divorce? — Unexpected Divorce Dear U.D.: There is no set timetable for “getting over” a divorce. Much depends on the reasons for it. Some people hang onto their pain and anger for the rest of their lives. Others grow beyond the experience and are able to move on. They cultivate new friends and interests, and sometimes find a romance to replace the one that was lost. I predict you will move beyond your pain and anger when you are ready for another relationship.

Actors learn to love their ‘X-Files’ characters PASADENA, Calif. — Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny say they learned to appreciate being known for “The X-Files” characters that made them sci-fi sex symbols more than 20 years ago.

“It took me a long time to embrace it after we were done with the series,” Anderson said Friday, joining Duchovny and series creator Chris Carter at a TV critics’ meeting to promote the upcoming six-episode reboot of the Fox series.

“It took a good decade for me to start thinking of it as the gift that it was and appreciate the opportunity I had and how fortunate I was to play a great, iconic character in a show that was iconic in itself,” said Anderson.

Duchovny, who played FBI agent Fox Mulder to Anderson’s agent Scully in the 1993-2002 drama, said that perspective was key to revisiting it. “The X-Files” debuts Jan. 24 on Fox. Both followed the “X-Files” and its two

follow-up movies with very different work. Duchovny starred in Showtime’s “Californication” and branched into writing books and music. Anderson appeared in a variety of stage and screen projects that included classics “Bleak House” and “Great Expectations,” both for TV. The actors were asked to discuss the on-screen chemistry they shared in “X-Files” as their characters waded through

government plots and crimes with bizarre twists.

“There is something extra, and I don’t know what that is. It seems like it’s separate from us,” Anderson said.

“You can feel it right now,” Duchovny said, drawing laughs. “But I think at this point, having known each other and worked together so much for the last, over 20 years, we’ve gone beyond chemistry to history, which is a really

cool thing to play as well.”

“We have chemistry and history, and we’re going try to get biology,” he added with a smile.

Carter said the limited run will include “mythology” episodes, such as those in the original series that focused on Mulder’s effort to prove a government cover-up about aliens on Earth. There’s also a comedic-slash-horror episode, which also harkens back to the original “X-Files” formula.

The Lone Gunmen conspiracy-theory trio also will be back, although they did “meet their maker” in a previous season, Carter said, explaining that “they’re actually back in a fantasy.”

“Scully’s fantasy,” Anderson said, smiling.

Whether more “X-Files” episodes are ahead remains to be seen.

“I’m waiting for Fox to come back and say we want more of these,” Carter said.

Bill Maher wants Obama appearance on ‘Real Time’ Bill Maher is hoping for a visit from President Barack Obama for his 60th birthday.

The HBO “Real Time” host said he’s launching a petition campaign for his fans to urge the White House to schedule a presidential appearance on his show. He said Friday that

it wouldn’t bother him if not for the fact that “this president has done virtually every other show in the known universe.”

He referenced Obama appearances with comic Zach Galifianakis on “Between Two Ferns,” giving his NCAA basketball tournament picks on ESPN

and talking about hair on “Live with Kelly and Michael.”

Maher, who turns 60 on Wednes- Bill Maher day, said he couldn’t understand why efforts to

get the president on have borne no fruit, pointing out that he agrees with Obama on most things.

“There could be no better audience for this president,” Maher said. “Our viewers are informed, they’re engaged, and they’re smart enough to steal cable.”

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Don’t look back — it’s full speed ahead. Your race to the top can only be matched by your desire and willingness to do whatever it takes to get there. Whether your goal is personal, financial, medical or emotional, you can achieve whatever you set out to do as long as you are persistent and use your intuition to guide you. Your numbers are 5, 13, 22, 25, 31, 37, 49.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t let laziness set in or depend on others to do things for you. The more aggressive your pursuits, the less complaints and annoyances you will face.

Inspire others to pitch in and help. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Take time to listen to the opinions of friends or relatives.

Do your best to think of everyone’s needs and ensure that you keep your relationships with others healthy. A professional opportunity will enhance your reputation. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): A lack of understanding or trust will develop between you and your lover, a good friend or a family member.

Be ready to offer an explanation and ask direct questions in order to clear the air. Re-evaluate your lifestyle choices. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Charity begins at home, so don’t make an impulsive donation just to impress someone. If you have to overspend to get someone’s attention, it’s probably not worth your while. Make your own life better, not someone else’s. ★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be careful how you present what you have to offer. If you exaggerate, you will end up looking bad. Focus more on truth and bringing about positive changes, and you will make a good impression. Romance is encouraged. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Problems at home will develop if you don’t take care of your

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll speaks with linebacker K.J. Wright on the sidelines during the first half of Sunday’s game.

HARLOTTE — Jarring as a smashed window in a new car, the Seahawks season was in unexpected pieces. Tight end Luke Willson groped to explain.

“As arrogant as it sounds,” he said, “since I’ve been here, I’ve never not been to the Super Bowl.

“I don’t know what I’m going to do next week.”

A empty feeling shared by exactly everyone who goes, at least part-time, by the nickname Twelve. For all but the champion’s, a season always ends with cruel abruptness. The Seahawks were particularly ART THIEL attuned to that from a year earlier, when one magnum gaffe in the final moments denied them a second Super Bowl triumph in a row.

Sunday’s 31-24 loss at Bank of America Stadium was different. Rather than drifting into the familiar high-wire episode in the final minute, this game was See THIEL, Page C5

hat made Rocky Balboa so admirable?

It wasn’t because the fictional boxer was the heavyweight champ. It wasn’t because of the shiny metallic belt he wore around his waist.

What made Rocky a movie icon was no matter how many times he got knocked down, no matter how many devastating punches he took to the head, he always pulled himself back off the canvas and got back on his feet.

Much like Rocky’s first fight with Apollo Creed, the Seattle Seahawks may not have won Sunday. However, they were worth every bit of the crowd’s adoration.

It takes a special set of circumstances for a team that’s been to two straight Super Bowls to do itself credit NICK PATTERSON with a loss. But while the Seahawks fell short of their goal of reaching their third straight NFL championship game by losing 31-24 to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, they can hold their heads high from refusing to succumb to repeated knockout blows.

This was a Seahawks team that

had to be punch drunk when it stumbled into the locker room at halftime. Seattle trailed Carolina — the team which finished with the best record in the NFL at 15-1 and beat the Seahawks in Week 6 — by the absurd score of 31-0.

Seattle found itself in a 14-0 hole before four minutes had elapsed.

Had Mills Lane been the referee instead of Tony Corrente, this one would have been stopped in the first round to prevent anyone from ending up in the hospital.

But the Seahawks are renown for their stubbornness. Going into Sunday’s game Seattle trailed by nine or more points in

EVERETT — Hockey players and coaches are used to routine.

The Everett Silvertips don’t have that luxury today when the Saskatoon Blades visit Xfinity Arena for a rare 2:05 p.m. weekday start on Kid’s Day. The Silvertips do have some recent experience with early start times. Their first game following the week-long Christmas hiatus was a 2 p.m. start at Vancouver, and Everett also played a 2:05 p.m. game at home against Kelowna on New Year’s Day. That game at Vancouver, by the way, was the last contest in which the U.S. Division-leading Tips did not earn at least a point in the standings.

Saskatoon (17-25-3-0, 37 points) is in 10th place in the Eastern Division and is four points back of the Edmonton Oil Kings for the final playoff spot in the

conference.

Saskatoon is 4-6-0-0 in its past 10 games and is coming off a 3-1 win at Portland on Saturday. The Blades have played five in a streak of seven consecutive road games — a stretch that wraps up Tuesday at Seattle.

Cameron Hebig (20 goals, 27 assists) and Connor Gay (15 goals, 31 assists) are the top point producers, although Hebig is listed as day-to-day with an upper body injury on the Western Hockey League’s weekly report and didn’t play in Saturday’s game.

Nick Zajac (11 goals, 20 assists), Wyatt Sloboshan (12 goals, 17

assists) and Ryan Graham (11 goals, 16 assists) are also key offensive performers.

Blades goaltender Brock Hamm turned aside 38 shots as Saskatoon defeated the Winterhawks despite being outshot 39-25. Hamm has a record of 13-14-2-0 with a 3.83 goals against average and an .884 save percentage in 34 games.

The game will be a chance for current Silvertip Brycen Martin to see his former team. The Everett defenseman scored three goals and had 21 assists for Saskatoon before he was dealt to the Tips in early December.

Everett (26-12-2-2, 56 points) holds a five-point lead over Seattle in the U.S. Division standings and boasts a 7-1-2-0 mark in its past 10 contests. That is the best record in the Western Conference over the past 10 games.

Remi Laurencelle (25 goals, 21 assists) continues to pace the Silvertips offense, while Carson

Stadnyk (11 goals, 23 assists), Martin (four goals, 27 assists), Patrick Bajkov (10 goals, 18 assists) and Matt Fonteyne (10 goals, 16 assists) add offensive depth.

The Everett defense leads the league in fewest shots allowed per game (26.17) and fewest goals allowed per game (2.14).

One reason the Tips allow so few goals is because they boast one of the top goalies in the WHL in 17-year-old Carter Hart. The Alberta native leads the league in wins (25), shutouts (six) and goals against average (1.95), and is second in save percentage (.926).

Following today’s game the Tips embark on a three-game road swing that begins Wednesday at Kamloops. Everett finishes the swing with games at Edmonton on Friday and at Red Deer on Saturday.

Serena wins at Aussie Open Associated Press MELBOURNE, Australia — Serena Williams made a bright start to her Australian Open title defense, holding up one finger and twirling in her neon yellow two-piece outfit to mark victory No. 1 after advancing with a 6-4, 7-5 win over Camila Giorgi on Monday.

Williams withdrew from a warmup tournament because of inflammation in her left knee, so the win over Giorgi was her first completed match since her bid for a calendar-year Grand Slam ended in a semifinal loss at the 2015 U.S. Open.

The 21-time major winner was troubled initially by the bright sun while serving from one end of Rod Laver Arena, but otherwise didn’t show too many signs of discomfort as she beat the No. 34-ranked Giorgi in a challenging opener.

Williams dropped one service game in the match, and Giorgi struggled with 12 double-faults, including one on the decisive breakpoint in the 11th game of the second set.

Williams fired two aces and a service winner to finish it off.

Washington’s Kelsey Plum (10) dribbles against USC during the first half of their Pac-12 women’s basketball game on Sunday in Seattle. Plum led all scorers with 32 points.

Weekend sweep The Washington women best USC 69-60 for their second victory over a ranked team in three days Herald news services

SEATTLE — It was quite a weekend for the University of Washington women’s basketball team.

Junior guard Kelsey Plum scored 21 of her 32 points in the second half, Chantel Osahor had a double-double and the Huskies dominated the second half in a 69-60 win over No. 25 Southern California on Sunday.

It was Washington’s second win over a ranked team in three days. The Huskies defeated No. 17 UCLA on Friday night.

Sunday’s win moved the Huskies into third place in the Pac-12

and gives Washington (14-4, 5-2 in Pac-12 play) a chance to move into the Associated Press Top 25 for the first time since March 3, 2003. This week’s poll will be released Monday.

Osahor had 14 points and 11 rebounds for the Huskies.

Washington made seven of its 11 3-point attempts, and shot 64 percent from the floor (14-for22) in the second half.

Before the Trojans (14-4, 2-4) scored 10 points in the last 75 seconds, capped by Courtney Jaco’s 3-pointer in the closing seconds — her first in 12 attempts — Plum outscored the Trojans, who led 34-24 at the

Utah rallies for a victory after Oregon State player trips ref Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Oregon State’s Jarmal Reid tripped a referee and was ejected with 2:56 remaining, igniting a Utah rally that led to the Utes’ 59-53 victory Sunday night.

After stealing the ball from Utah’s Jacob Poeltl, who was driving to the basket, Reid tried dribbling upcourt. But a lunging Poeltl seemed to bump Reid and the Oregon State forward fell to the floor.

Reid complained that there was no foul call and while getting up it appeared he made eye contact with referee Tommy Nunez and stuck his right leg out. Nunez tripped and stumbled to the court.

Reid was assessed a Flagrant 2, and Brandon Taylor made the free throw to give Utah a

53-52 lead.

The Beavers were outscored 6-1 the rest of the way.

Oregon State sprinted out to an 11-2 lead in the first half and pushed it to 21-8 thanks to three baskets apiece from Malcolm Duvivier and Stephen Thompson Jr. The Utes responded with a 15-10 run, due in large part to seven free throws. But the Beavers led 34-23 at halftime.

The Utes shot just 33.3 percent from the floor and 16.7 percent from behind the arc as they struggled with the Beavers zone in the first half.

Oregon State shot 46.4 percent and connected on 4 of 5 3-pointers before the break.

Poeltl led the Utes with 15 points. Gary Payton II finished with 11 points and Tres Tinkle added 11 for Oregon State.

Manning leads Broncos past Steelers 23-16 Associated Press

ASSOCIATED PRESS

Denver quarterback Peyton Manning (right) greets Pittsburgh defensive back Brandon Boykin after the Broncos defeated the Steelers 23-16 on Sunday.

AFC’s top two seeds, both 13-4.

“We’ll enjoy this one tonight. I think you knew that answer was coming. To kind of quote Bill Belichick, we’ll be on to New England. But I’ll be talking about them on Wednesday.”

Football fans certainly won’t wait that long.

Brady has won 11 of the 16 meetings against Manning, but they’re 2-2 in the playoffs, including Denver’s 26-16 win in the conference championship game

Patterson: Despite huge deficit, Seahawks didn’t quit From Page C1

a playoff game seven times since 2010. In five of those games the Seahawks came back to win.

And on Sunday, just like Rocky, Seattle refused to stay down.

It would have been easy for the Seahawks to take their 10 count and quietly capitulate after the way they were knocked into next week in the first half.

Only one time in NFL history has a team come back to win after trailing by as many as 31 points — the legendary playoff game between the Buffalo Bills and Houston Oilers in 1993, when the Frank Reich-led Bills overcame a 35-3 second-half deficit in what’s universally considered the greatest comeback in NFL history.

It’s not like Carolina’s 31-0 lead was deceiving.

The Panthers stomped the Seahawks in every conceivable aspect of the game in the first half. Seattle’s supposedly-improved offensive line was no match for Carolina’s defensive front, with Panthers pass rushers teeing off on Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Seattle’s run defense, which ranked first in the NFL in allowing just 81.5 yards per game, gave up 59 on the first play from scrimmage and 118 in the first half alone. When Carolina made it 31-0 the Panthers had outgained the Seahawks 213-17. Had this been a high school game the coaches would have agreed to using a running clock in the second half just to get the game over with.

But instead of mailing in the second half, the Seahawks decided to go for it.

Wilson, a liability in the first half by throwing two interceptions, including a pick-six, came out on a mission. Wilson’s second-half performance — 21-for-31 for 255 yards and three touchdowns — was a snapshot of what he’d done throughout the second half of the season to make himself an MVP candidate. Meanwhile, Seattle’s receivers continued to make a mockery of the “average” label slapped on them in the past, with Jermaine Kearse, Doug Baldwin and Tyler Lockett all making bigtime catches, despite the

Panthers knowing the ball would be in the air on every down. These Seahawks, despite the damage taken, were still able to throw some roundhouses of their own.

After Carolina found the openings in Seattle’s defense in the first half to put the Seahawks against the ropes, Seattle easily parried every tepid punch the Panthers threw in the second half as Carolina attempted to see out the fight and win on points.

The Seahawks, who allowed 220 yards in the first half, surrendered just 75 in the second half and forced four straight punts to give the offense a chance.

In order to pull off the improbable comeback the Seahawks needed to score on every single one of their second-half drives, while stopping the Panthers on every single one of its second-half possessions. Seattle went 5-for-5 on defense, but just 4-for-5 on offense.

And unfortunately for the Seahawks, unlike last year against Green Bay, there was no miracle onside kick toward the end of regulation this time.

“There wasn’t a guy in the locker room who didn’t think we were going to win the football game,” Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said. “There wasn’t a word in that direction for a moment. The demonstration of what happened in the second half proved it.

These guys totally believed that they can do whatever they’ve got to do, they believe in one another, they love each other, they care about it so much they would do stuff like that.

They showed who they were and what they’re all about.”

No, the Seahawks won’t be booking their trip to Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, for Feb. 7. Seattle won’t be the first team since Buffalo from 1991-94 to reach three straight Super Bowls.

But the kind of attitude displayed during the second half Sunday is why the Seahawks, just like Rocky, should get their shot at another title bout.

two years ago.

The 17th chapter was slated for November before Manning went out with a foot injury that pushed longtime backup Brock Osweiler into the starting — and starring — role.

Osweiler led the Broncos back from a two-touchdown, fourthquarter deficit against New England on Nov. 29 in a game Denver won 30-24 in overtime.

Manning had just gotten out of his cast and watched that game

Toussaint, who scored his first career TD in the first half, took it hard and blamed himself.

“This is not all on him by any means,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s on all of us.”

After Toussaint’s fumble, Manning went to work, driving Denver to its only touchdown, a 1-yard run by C.J. Anderson, followed by Demaryius Thomas’ catch on the 2-pointer that put Denver ahead 20-13 with three minutes left.

That was Manning’s 55th game-winning drive in the fourth quarter or overtime, extending one of the dozen NFL records he owns.

Ware’s sack ended Pittsburgh’s next drive and McManus kicked his fifth field goal, joking it was such a tricky crosswind that he just kept aiming “at the guy holding the beer in the top left corner.”

Boswell made a 47-yarder with 19 seconds left, but Anderson recovered the onside kick.

Roethlisberger completed 24 of 37 passes for 339 yards despite playing with a sore right shoulder and missing his top receiver, Antonio Brown, and top rusher, DeAngelo Williams. Martavis Bryant had nine catches for 154 yards.

Manning completed 21 of 37 passes for 222 yards.

DENVER — Peyton Manning gets to face his biggest nemesis for one more shot at glory.

Get ready for Brady-Manning XVII. The NFL’s only five-time MVP earned one more — and possibly final — game against his rival by leading the Denver Broncos to a come-from-behind 23-16 win over Ben Roethlisberger and the Pittsburgh Steelers on a blustery Sunday.

That set up an AFC championship game next weekend in Denver against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

What a fitting feature to an 18th season for Manning that’s been equal parts trying and triumphant, filled with injuries and insults, rehab and redemption.

And yet another rescue.

Manning and Brady have squared off 16 times before, a full season’s worth of matchups between the two quarterbacks whose careers are so intertwined that a conversation about one almost has to include the other — like Bird vs. Magic or Ali vs.

Frazier.

“It’ll be the Broncos vs. the Patriots,” Manning said of the

from the locker room after shaking Brady’s hand in pregame warmups.

He returned to action in the season finale, his cameo propelling the Broncos past San Diego and into the AFC’s No. 1 seed that ensures Brady & Co. will have to play at altitude in their fifth consecutive trip to the conference championship game.

Just before kickoff Sunday, a strong wind blew over the Rocky Mountains, wreaking havoc on passes and kicks alike, although Denver’s Brandon McManus tied an NFL playoff record by converting all five of his field-goal attempts and Chris Boswell made all three of his.

Manning’s teammates dropped seven passes but also came through in crunch time. Denver is 10-3 in games decided by seven points or fewer, and Manning said being battle-tested helped them on this blustery night With Denver down 13-12 with less than 10 minutes remaining, cornerback Bradley Roby, burned time and again, punched the ball from Fitzgerald Toussaint’s arms and teammate DeMarcus Ware recovered at the Denver 35-yard line.

“Perfect timing,” Roby said.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Tyler Lockett is a tough grader.

The wide receiver made it to the Pro Bowl in his rookie season, and tacked on another impressive game Sunday in the Seattle Seahawks’ 31-24 playoff loss to Carolina.

Lockett made four catches for 75 yards and a touchdown against the Panthers, and averaged more than 30 yards on three kickoff returns.

“It could have been better,” Lockett said after the game, when asked to sum up his season.

“Regardless of how anybody else looks at it, I know I could have done a lot better and contributed a lot more. Those are some things I’m going to keep working on as I get ready for the next year.”

Lockett showed remarkable concentration while pulling in a 33-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter while under tight coverage. An even better catch came in the fourth quarter, when he managed to drag his toes inbounds as he made a diving reception far out of bounds.

The catch was good for 27 yards, and the

season behind them, quarterback Russell Wilson’s and fellow Seahawks’ heads stayed high.

They are proud of their comebacks this season, and in this 31-24 loss to Panthers at Bank of America Stadium.

But they will remained pained into the summer by their starts.

Those ruined Seattle’s reign atop the NFC. Jonathan Stewart ran for 59 yards on Sunday’s first play from scrimmage, running past defenders slipping so much on new sod they had to then change to longer cleats, and Carolina’s romp was on. Wilson threw two interceptions, one of which Carolina linebacker Luke Kuechly returned 14 yards for a touchdown on the Seahawks’ first offensive series. And Seattle trailed 31-0 before this divisional playoff game was even a quarter and a half old.

“We made a mess of it in the first half,” Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said. “We look at this game as a microcosm of the season. We struggled so much early in the season to get going, and it took us a long time. When we finally did, we caught fire, and got rolling. Everyone in here just feels like we ran out of time.”

Ultimately Wilson’s excellence, the defense pitching a shutout for the final 21⁄2 quarters and the Seahawks (11-7) at their most-resilient best couldn’t overcome being down 31 points.

Wilson’s 366 yards passing

Panthers challenged the play, probably out of the belief that nobody could have pulled it in legally.

A third-round draft pick out of Kansas State, Lockett was expected to be a game-changing returner. And he demonstrated that in the second half, returning a kickoff 50 yards.

But his performance as a receiver has come as a surprise. He finished the regular season with 51 catches for six touchdowns, and also scored on a kickoff return and a punt return.

“I can’t say enough about Tyler Lockett and his mentality and his work ethic, and the way he approaches the game,” veteran Seahawks receiver Doug Baldwin said. “He bought into our mantra as a receiving corps, and the standard we set in our room. He’s raised the bar for any rookie who wants to come in here. I’m excited for his progress and his future because it’s very bright.”

Lockett said he thought the way the Seahawks rallied for 24 points after trailing 31-0 at halftime “showed our character to fight back and never give up. Unfortunately, we ran out of time.

“We knew it was going to be a fight and we would have to have things go our way. We just ran out of time toward the end, but we got really close.”

and three touchdowns in the second half, his 31 completions in a career-high 48 passes, frantically rallied the Seahawks to within seven points, 31-24. But a final onside kick failed with just over a minute remaining.

“If we had one more drive we would have won it,” Wilson said.

“We didn’t start the way we wanted to,” said the Seahawks quarterback. “But the best part about our football team showed up — and we’ve been doing it all year ... our resilience. We were down and out early in the year.

But we kept believing.

“We were mentally strong. ...

We are going to come back stronger. ... You can’t find anybody that would fight the way we fight.”

The problems with pass protection by the offensive line ruined the first half of the season and ultimately had Seattle on the road as a wild card for these playoffs. Those issues returned Sunday. Wilson got hit 14 times and sacked five times by the Panthers. Carolina’s Mario Addison ripped left tackle Russell Okung’s arm out of its shoulder socket on his way to the hit that forced Wilson’s second interception of the first half. Okung did not return.

“It was my fault,” Wilson said.

“We got behind, and I take the blame for that.”

Yet Wilson’s 31 completions were one short of his career high set in another rally that begin this schizophrenic Seahawks season, in September’s overtime loss at St. Louis.

Marshawn Lynch returned from abdominal surgery to play for the first time since Nov. 15.

But his part in the game plan

disappeared within the abyss the Seahawks fell into immediately.

Wilson’s interception that Kuechly returned for a TD made it 14-0 Carolina after just two offensive snaps by the Seahawks.

Wilson’s throw to Lynch came so quickly because the quarterback was getting hit by Kawann Short, Carolina’s leading sack man.

Lynch never got his head around to see the hurried pass over the middle behind him into Kuechly’s arms.

Lynch finished with 20 yards on just six carries.

With 6 minutes left in the first half the total yards were Panthers 213, Seahawks 17. Carolina had 14 more points than Seattle had yards and led 31-0.

But then, as Carroll said, “sometimes halftime is the best thing to happen to us.”

Forced by the huge deficit to throw on just about every down, Wilson found Jermaine Kearse for a 13-yard touchdown 93 seconds into the third quarter. He found rookie Tyler Lockett for a 33-yard touchdown midway through the third quarter. And with 6:04 to play Wilson scrambled on third and goal from the 3. He twisted, reset his feet then lofted a jump ball just over Carolina star cornerback Josh Norman’s leap into Kearse’s outstretched hands.

Incredibly, Carolina’s lead was down to 31-21 with 6:04 to go. The largest deficit overcome to win in team history, down 21-0 on Nov. 3, 2013, against Tampa Bay, was improbably within reach.

Seattle got the ball back at its own 22 with 2:49 left after yet another defensive stop. On third down

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Jonathan Stewart’s 59-yard run on a counter play to begin the game was the first of the Carolina Panthers’ many punches to the Seattle Seahawks’ mouths in the runaway first half.

Stewart’s romp was also why middle linebacker Bobby Wagner and many other Seahawks changed the cleats on their shoes to longer, detachable cleats after Carolina’s first drive.

Wagner, fellow linebacker K.J. Wright and others slipped out of their gaps and on their pursuits of Stewart on that run.

“You watch the first play, a lot of guys slipped on the play,” Wagner said. “So I feel like once we settled down we started tackling better, started making plays. But we just didn’t make enough.

“Once we put on other cleats, we were fine.”

The Panthers re-sodded their field a little less than two weeks ago following the end to their regular season and through their bye last week. The field was covered Saturday, then uncovered Sunday morning. The new, thin sod got rain and wet snow on it a few hours before the game, before skies cleared in the afternoon.

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson said he changed into longer spikes after noticing during pregame warmups the grass was loose.

Carroll was quick to dismiss the field as being a factor in the game’s outcome — “No. Both teams,” he said.

Okung injured Left tackle Russell Okung left the game after Seattle’s first play of the second quarter after Carolina’s Mario Addison pulled Okung’s arm from his shoulder on a pass rush. Okung crumpled as Addison sped in to hit Wilson as he threw an interception to Cortland Finnegan. That set up a Panthers field goal to give Carolina a 24-0 lead.

Carroll said Okung dislocated his shoulder.

Okung was Seattle’s sixth-overall draft choice in 2010. He just finished the final year of his contract that paid him $4.8 million this season and counted a hefty $7.28 million against the salary cap.

Okung is one of 25 players whose contracts ended Sunday. The list also includes: defensive tackle Brandon Mebane, linebacker Bruce Irvin (who spent much of Sunday on the sidelines apparently not injured while Mike Morgan played for him), defensive tackle Ahtyba Rubin, wide receiver Jermaine Kearse and guard J.R. Sweezy.

Wilson completed another throw while getting nailed yet again, to Baldwin. Seattle was at the Carolina 13 with 90 seconds to play.

On third and 15 Wilson overthrew Kearse in the end zone; he didn’t jump because, the receiver complained in vain, he’d been held down by the waist.

Hauschka kicked a 36-yard field goal to make the score 31-24 with 1:12 to play.

Hauschka’s onside kick bounded into the arms of Carolina Pro Bowl linebacker Thomas Davis. Davis held on to the ball as Seattle’s Derrick Coleman took his legs out from under him.

The Panthers (16-1) advanced to next week’s conference title game here against NFC Westchampion Arizona (14-3).

Wilson finished his fourth season. He’s just 27 years old. Pro Bowl cornerback Richard Sherman said, responding to those who say the Seahawks’ run is now over, “People get confused.

They think our quarterback is 38.

“We are going to be special for a long time.”

Wilson’s played in two Super Bowls already, winning Seattle’s first one two seasons ago. Yet he said this season in which he became the first NFL player to throw for 4,000 yards, rush for 500 and throw at least 30 touchdown — when his Seahawks went from buried to brilliant to ultimately beaten by too much too quickly at Carolina — was his most enjoyable season yet.

“Honestly, my most fun year,” Wilson said. “Just because of the leadership on the team. And the fact that the overcomers that we have are pretty special.”

Report Card

From Page C1

Here’s how the Seattle Seahawks grade out in their 31-24 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Sunday’s divisional playoff game:

not only over in the first six plays, it was finished last week.

While the Seahawks were off doing winter-survival drills in the sub-zero Midwest, the Panthers were here at home in a bye week, dissecting game films to discover how to convert the Seahawks of the season’s second half into the Seahawks of the first half.

They did it.

The result was why head coach Pete Carroll puts such importance on winning the division title and its chance for a bye, which they had the past two seasons.

It’s not everything. But it’s a lot.

The Panthers’ well-regarded front seven blew past the Seahawks’ under-invested offensive line for five sacks and 14 quarterback hits of Russell Wilson. On offense, the Panthers turned the Seahawks’ hyperaggression against them, waiting for defenders to over-run their assignments.

“They had a great game plan,” said linebacker Bruce Irvin. “They came out faster.

We came out flat. Unfortunately, they were the better team today.”

Plain and simple — the Panthers were the better team. No excuses about a slippery field, or burdensome travel or re-integrating running back Marshawn Lynch into the offense.

The Panthers were the better team starting in the fall. They were the better team when they beat the Seahawks in Seattle in October, 27-23. They were the best team in the NFL at regular season with a record of 15-1, and they are the best team among the final four that play Sunday for the conference championships.

The Quest for the Lost Yard is over. It was too difficult; no team in NFC history has been to three Super Bowls in a row, and only two in the AFC. The Seahawks took some solace from their stout comeback in the second half, a 24-0 run that pushed them to the outskirts of one of the most preposterous comebacks in NFL annals. And while they played well, the major impetus for that was that the Panthers, in the words of their quarterback and the NFL’s likely MVP, Cam Newton, played “butt-tight.”

The priority on avoiding turnovers or other errors caused Carolina to play cautiously, which allowed the Seahawks back in. The Seahawks like to flatter themselves that they “ran out of time,” when the more salient point was they had been run out of town in the first half.

The two quick early strikes — the 59-yard run by running back Jonathan Stewart that keyed the opening 80-yard touchdown drive, and a pick-six by All-Pro linebacker Luke Kuechly — induced mayhem in the normally poised Seahawks.

“When you’re down, a bunch of stuff is happening,” said free safety Earl Thomas.

“The energy is very weird. We’re not ourselves. Lack of communication.

“It’s chaos.”

Carroll was stunned.

“We don’t ever play like that,” he said.

“You never see us like that.”

Certainly, it has been rare for the Seahawks. But it is hardly rare in football.

Do you know who the Seahawks looked like in the first half? The Denver Broncos in the first half of Super Bowl XXVIII in New York.

The young, overlooked NFC champion Seahawks — the Panthers in roster profile look very similar — stunned a very good Broncos team with a 22-0 halftime lead en route to the 43-8 rout.

Following Sunday’s stark take-down, those heady times for the Seahawks seem a bit distant. The Seahawks management, coaches and players made a valiant four-year run with a formula that had way more hits than misses. It’s not necessarily at an end.

But it will certainly end for some players, who will move on in free agency or be cut. That reality was apparent in the locker room. Lynch made a point of seeking out the offensive linemen for handshakes.

Hugs were plentiful. Among the melancholy was Irvin, the former first-round draft choice whose option was not picked up in the summer by the Seahawks.

As he sat shirtless in front of his locker, Irvin talked about how, if this was to be it, they weren’t going to let the 31-0 deficit stand as the tombstone.

“We said we’re not going out like this,” Irvin said of the halftime conversation.

“Some of these guys, including me, it might be our last time together.

“I’m thinking about it now. That’s why I don’t want to take my (uniform) pants off.”

As with most of the rest of his teammates, he knows the Seahawks have created a rare environment for success, Sunday notwithstanding.

“If it is (over), it’s been a great four years,” he said. “I would love to come back to Seattle, but I understand the business side of it. I’ll handle it when the time comes.

“We faced a lot of adversity. We continued to fight. We didn’t reach our goal this time. It will be different next year.”

Certainly a noble sentiment after a defeat. But being different is a guarantee every year in the NFL with its unsentimental salary cap.

That question of the offseason? Getting better.

Offense

It was a tale of two halves.

CQuarterback Russell Wilson, who was under all kinds of pressure, put Seattle in a hole in the first half with a pair of interceptions, including a pick-six. Then Wilson nearly pulled the Seahawks back out with three TD passes in the second half.

But Seattle, in falling behind so quickly, was never able to utilize its running game. Marshawn Lynch, in his return from injury, had just six carries for 20 yards.

Seattle stopped Carolina C+ just once in five drives in the first half, allowing long touchdown

Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse catches a 3-yard touchdown pass despite the efforts of Panthers cornerback Josh Norman during the fourth quarter.

Kearse has career day Seahawks wide receiver Jermaine Kearse, who is due to become an unrestricted free agent in March and does not know if he will return to Seattle, catches 11 passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns in playoff loss to Panthers.

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The tears welling in Jermaine Kearse’s reddened eyes told how much he wants to remain a Seattle Seahawk.

So did the words spoken by the Lakewood native and former star at Lakes High School and the University of Washington on Sunday afternoon.

Seattle’s No. 2 wide receiver caught two touchdown passes in the second half during a 31-24 playoff loss to the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium. He ended up with a career-high 11 receptions, 10 after halftime, on 15 targets. He tied his careerbest with 110 yards receiving.

“He was lights out,” quarterback Russell Wilson said. “Jermaine Kearse has done an unbelievable job all four years. He’s just made play after play after play. His determination, work ethic, his passion for the game, his poise ... he’s got great hands.

“He’s clutch, as clutch as it gets.”

Now he is due to become an unrestricted free agent in March.

Sunday’s scores were the fifth and sixth touchdowns in 10 career postseason games for Kearse. That includes the one in overtime 12 months ago that beat Green Bay in the NFC championship game and sent the Seahawks into their second consecutive Super Bowl.

In that Super Bowl 49 last February, Kearse made the mind-boggling, juggling catch while on his back on the sideline late in the game. But many forget that because his catch set up the most famous play call in Super Bowl history, Seattle’s choice to have Wilson throw from the 1-yard line in the final seconds. The resulting interception and New England’s win overshadowed Kearse’s catch.

In all, not too shabby for a former undrafted free agent in 2012.

Kearse has been catching throws from

Wilson since he was an undrafted free agent scrapping to get noticed in a May minicamp in 2012 and Wilson was a third-round draft pick trying to prove himself, too, that spring.

Seattle has already re-signed Kearse once, as a restricted free agent last spring for the 2015 season at $2,356,000. He turns 26 next month. Last summer he got married to Marisa Ventura.

He wants nothing more than to return with another new deal, to keep him and his new bride in Western Washington.

“I mean, in this moment right here I just kind of focused on that task at hand,” Kearse said. “Obviously there’s some decisions that are going to have to be made in this offseason. So I am just going to try to take it like that, like this season, just take it one day at a time and see how it goes.

“I mean, I grew up in the state of Washington. I would love to be here. But there are going to have to be decisions that are going to have to be made, and we are just going to have to see when that time comes.”

Kearse said the thought he won’t be back has entered his mind “a little bit.” Seattle already has No. 1 receiver Doug Baldwin under contract for one more season at $4 million for 2016. Baldwin set a Seahawks record with 15 touchdown catches this season. That tied for the league lead.

Rookie Tyler Lockett impressed all season as a Pro Bowl kick returner and No. 3 wide receiver. The trust he gained with Wilson and the coaches set him up for an even bigger 2016.

Plus, the Seahawks expect to have prized tight end Jimmy Graham back in their starting lineup for the start of next season; knee surgery ended his Seattle debut season in late November.

“I’m not oblivious to the situation that I am going to be coming towards this offseason,” Kearse said. “I just try to not focus on that and try to just focus on this team and just giving everything I can on this team.”

drives on each of the Panthers’ first two possessions. However, the Seahawks tightened up after that, Carolina’s final two scoring drives coming on short fields. With Seattle needing to stop the Panthers on every drive in the second half to have a chance, the Seahawks held the Panthers to 75 yards and zero points.

Special teams

The second-half special B+ teams played a big role in Seattle coming back. Tyler Lock-

ett’s 50-yard return on the opening kickoff of the second half set the tone. The Seahawks also pulled off a perfectly-executed fake punt, snapping the ball directly to DeShawn Shead for a 17-yard gain to keep a drive alive. It was a high degree of difficulty kick, but the Seahawks really could have used that 55-yard field goal as time expired in the first half.

Coaching

Whatever the coaches said at Chalftime did the trick, as the Seahawks adjusted extremely well.

However, it’s also the responsibility of the coaches to have the team ready for the start of the game, and that wasn’t the case Sunday.

Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said afterward he regretted the decision to go for it on fourth-down with the team in the red zone late in the second quarter, rather than taking a field goal to get on the scoreboard.

Overall

If ever there was the need for C semester grades, this was the game. The Seahawks deserved an F

in the first half, then merited an A in the second half. It’s hard to imagine a game changing more dramatically at halftime. However, Seattle dug itself too big a hole in the first half, and the Seahawks didn’t have enough magic left to pull themselves out in the second and keep their season alive.

Has Lynch played his final game with Seahawks?

By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Marshawn Lynch grabbed his shoulder bag. As teammates answered questions all around him, Lynch walked alone out of the locker room and into his uncertain offseason and future.

Lynch’s departure from Bank of America Stadium following the Seattle Seahawks’ 31-24 loss to the Carolina Panthers in the NFC divisional playoffs Sunday was the exit he always makes: Without saying anything. And on his own, unique terms.

Now the Seahawks’ biggest offseason question looms: Was this Lynch’s final game for Seattle? Or in the NFL? He played in just seven regular season games because of injuries. His abdominal surgery Nov. 25 was the first operation and major injury of his nine-year career. His contract from the two-year extension he signed before this season calls for him to count a prohibitive $11.5 million against Seattle’s

2016 salary cap.

That’s seemingly far too costly for a running back that turns 30 in April coming off a season with a career-low 417 yards and just three touchdowns. The recent foundation to the Seahawks’ two consecutive Super Bowl runs, the five-time Pro Bowl selection and 2012 All-Pro, is coming off a playoff game in which he was reduced to a pass blocker. Seattle fell behind 31-0 and Lynch had just 20 yards on six carries Sunday, his first game since Nov. 15.

“He didn’t get much of a chance,” head coach Pete Carroll said Sunday.

If the team has interest in keeping him, Seattle would almost certainly ask Lynch to renegotiate his deal down from a scheduled base salary of $9 million, not guaranteed, for next season. Lynch has done the opposite of agreeing to pay cuts the last two offseasons.

If Lynch were to say no to any renegotiation, the Seahawks may be faced with a decision on whether to release a player

whose legacy in Seattle will always be thunderous runs with opponents falling at his feet. His production and style spawned the best three years the Seahawks franchise has ever had.

“I’ll remember him being a beast, ‘Beast Mode’ — it’s trademarked now,” Pro Bowl cornerback Richard Sherman said, when asked if this is Lynch’s last game how he’d remember about him. “He’s the workhorse.

He’s the guy that’s going to be out there, if he’s strapping up his pads he’s going to give you everything he’s got, 100 percent. ... That’s what you can appreciate. Outstanding teammate. Outstanding guy, on and off the field.

“You are going to remember him as a phenomenal person who would give you the shirt off his back.”

Asked if he had any sense if Sherman would play or not, Sherman smiled.

“I do not,” Sherman said. “That is up to him.

“If I could read Beast Mode’s mind people would pay me a lot of money to tell them that.”
