Weekend I-5 work could snarl traffic Expansion joint replacement work on two bridges between Everett and Marysville will begin Feb. 26 and last through late April.

By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — A weekend drive could soon feel like a weekday commute if you’re

traveling I-5 between Everett and Marysville.

Freeway drivers should brace for eight weekends of major lane closures starting Feb. 26 as state contractors replace expansion

joints in northbound and southbound lanes.

The work will involve sections of I-5 over Ebey and Steamboat sloughs — the two bridges immediately south of Marysville. Crews are scheduled to work most weekends from late February through late April.

Expansion joints are essential components — steel bars and rubber seals that allow bridges

to flex with changing traffic volumes and weather. The ones on the Ebey and Steamboat slough bridges are up to 30 years old.

Problems include protruding or missing bolts, torn seals that allow water to seep in and missing concrete around the joints.

“The reason we’re replacing them now is because we consider them the worst of the worst,” said Kris Olsen, a spokeswoman

for the state Department of Transportation.

More than 130,000 vehicles travel that stretch of I-5 each day.

Traffic engineers hope that 30 percent of the drivers can find other ways to travel through the area to avoid major delays during those weekends.

That includes carpooling, using See I-5, Page A2

Gains, losses seen on homeless front Herald Writer

EVERETT — A year and a half ago, Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson convened the city’s Streets Initiative Task Force to tackle homelessness and the associated problems of substance abuse, mental illness and street crime.

The city has since taken up a variety of issues. The most significant is a commitment to provide low-income housing to chronically homeless people.

Stephanson took to the stage at the Historic Everett Theatre on Monday to make a few announcements about the city’s progress on plans to find housing for 20 people in the first half of the year, and five of them in the first 60 days.

“With the help of YWCA, by Wednesday we’re going to have housing provided for those first five individuals,” Stephanson told the crowd, which included Snohomish County leaders and Gov. Jay Inslee.

He also said the city hopes

The second forum, on Monday, came on the heels of the county’s annual Point In Time count of homeless people.

ANDY BRONSON / THE HERALD

OLYMPIA — Tales of abuse of Washington’s public records law are piling up in cities, counties, schools and other local government around the state.

So, too, is the tab for taxpayers, compelling civic leaders to once again press lawmakers for help.

But like similar attempts the past few years, lawmakers are struggling to find that legislative sweet spot, where abusers of public records laws can be deterred without undermining Washington’s sacred doctrine of open government.

“There are solutions. The reasons we haven’t really attacked it is because it would be a really extreme thing to remedy the situation,” said Rep. Sherry Appleton, D-Poulsbo, chairwoman of the House Local Government Committee where the debate is playing out this session.

“Maybe in the future if we don’t find any relief for all of these massive requests we’ll have to repeal the Public Records Act and start all over again,” she said. “I am not proposing that. I don’t think that’s going to happen but I don’t see any other way to help them.”

Concern is bipartisan.

“It is no longer just about Gold Bar,” said House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish, referring to the small town in his district that’s reported being nearly bankrupted by the cost of paying workers to respond to records requests.

“The problem’s been acknowledged by a much broader group than it’s ever been,” he said. “I don’t see a way to solving the whole problem. Can we start chipping away at it? The difficult

together a panel of people who have been working in providing housing and social services for years.

All their agencies are moving toward a Housing First model, which emphasizes stable housing without most restrictions while making necessary social services available on site.

It’s a change of thinking that is rapidly being embraced.

Rob McCann, the executive director of Catholic Charities Spokane, said that years ago the nonprofit had to fight local government to

public transportation or adjusting travel times.

Alternate routes include Highway 529 between Marysville and Everett as well as Highway 9 and U.S. 2.

“Unless drivers do something different, it’s likely we’ll see weekend commutes that are very similar to a morning or evening commute during the week,” WSDOT traffic engineer Mike Swires said in a press release.

Swires said it’s been years since I-5 in Snohomish County had a comparable closure.

Keeping up with aging expansion joints is an ongoing chore. There are 188 state bridges to maintain in Snohomish and King counties alone.

build housing for homeless people in that city’s downtown. Everyone told him not to do it, warning that the housing would become a magnet for crime, prostitution, drug dealing and the like.

A couple of years later, the feared outcome had not materialized. Catholic Charities now owns and manages more than 1,000 units of supportive housing across Eastern Washington.

“Now the same people who said, ‘Rob don’t you dare,’ are saying, ‘Rob how many more can you build and how fast?’ ” McCann said.

Between work completed in late 2015 and what’s expected later this year, WSDOT plans to replace 41 expansion joints.

The upcoming weekend work will replace 10 joints on the northbound Ebey Slough bridge. It also will entail swapping out four more joints on the northbound and southbound Steamboat Slough bridge.

Expansion joints on those bridges are long, ranging between 48 and 71 feet. Because of their size, they can only be replaced during weekends, when there’s more time available, Olsen said. Workers have to chip about a foot back from the joint and about six inches down.

“The concrete alone takes 12 hours to cure, so there’s not enough time during an overnight closure for these expansion joints,” she said.

Panel members answered questions from the audience on everything from how tenants were screened (by need, usually), whether families with children could live in new Housing First developments (generally no), whether tenants could keep pets (often yes) and how neighbors were convinced to to allow such facilities in their communities.

Kelli Larsen, director of strategic initiatives for Seattle-based Plymouth Housing Group, said the degree of support from neighbors, businesses and local government often goes up and down but that the key is keeping channels of communication open.

“We do believe the

Narrower-than-usual lanes will result in a reduced speed limit of 40 mph.

Weather could affect the schedule.

Another 17 expansion joints on southbound Ebey Slough require less time.

Crews expect to replace them Monday through Thursday nights, between the weekend closures, Olsen said.

During an earlier phase of work between September and the end of 2015, crews replaced 10 expansion joints on both directions of the I-5 Union Slough bridge.

The upcoming work is projected to cost $5.3 million in state transportation dollars. PCL Civil

community is better overall for people to be in housing rather than on the streets,” Larsen said.

Leaders from government, nonprofits and churches joined panelists in talking about projects and looking for ways to work together.

Inslee said that during the recession, social services were cut to save money for education. That can’t happen any more, the governor said.

“We can’t solve our schools problem by taking funding from housing and mental health. We cannot sacrifice one for the other,” Inslee said.

Guilty verdict in sexual abuse of daughter, 6

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

EVERETT — A Snohomish County jury took less than three hours Tuesday to convict a Marysville mother of more than a dozen sex crimes involving her 6-year-old daughter.

Jurors were told that the woman and her husband solicited customers through Craigslist to sexually assault the girl in their home. Detectives uncovered at least one video of the girl being abused by an unidentified man while her mother watched. She

was texting another potential customer at the time, jurors were told.

Snohomish County sheriff’s detectives also found multiple sexually explicit photographs of the girl that were shared between husband and wife.

The Herald isn’t publishing the parents’ names to protect the identity of the victim and her younger brother. Child Protective Services removed the children from the home after the couple was arrested in 2014.

The woman faces up to 26 years in prison when she is sentenced in March. Snohomish

County deputy prosecutor Elise Deschenes has indicated that she will ask for more time based on the multiple crimes.

The woman was convicted of child rape and molestation and promoting the commercial sexual abuse of a minor. The jury also found her guilty of multiple counts of dealing in child pornography. Jurors acquitted her of one child pornography charge.

The defendant, 35, kept her head bowed and wiped at tears Tuesday as the verdict was read.

She plans to appeal the conviction, her attorney told Superior

Court Judge Thomas Wynne.

The woman testified that she was abused by her husband, 57, and forced to engage in sexual contact with her daughter. The woman, who isn’t a U.S. citizen, was concerned that she would be sent back to Tonga if she didn’t cooperate with her husband’s demands, jurors were told.

Deschenes argued that the woman never told detectives that she was a victim of domestic violence. She came up with the story when she realized that she was facing serious criminal charges, the deputy prosecutor said.

“The defendant saw her child, her 6-year-old daughter, as her plaything for her own sexual gratification,” Deschenes said in closing arguments.

The girl also was her “cash cow.”

The defendant’s husband pleaded guilty in June to firstdegree child rape and child molestation and possession of child pornography. He was sentenced to 27 years in prison.

Once they serve their time both defendants will have to convince the state’s Indeterminate Sentence Review Board they are safe to be released.

Sky Valley ed center on sick list

By Amy Nile Herald Writer

MONROE — An alternative school here is being checked after some students and staff suspected that something in the building made them sick.

Nine people have complained of headaches, upset stomachs, eye irritation and respiratory troubles after being in certain classrooms at the Sky Valley Education Center since the start of the school year, said Monroe School District spokeswoman Rosemary O’Neil.

The district has hired an environmental firm to look into the concerns, figure out what’s causing them and come up with a fix.

Another company is checking the ventilation system, O’Neil said.

“They’re just looking into it,” she said, noting a previous test found no contamination. “We’re just double, triple, quadruple checking.”

In the meantime, the school is running normally. Students have not been moved out of six classrooms that seem to be at the heart of the complaints.

The building at 351 Short Columbia St. has been blamed for similar problems in the past.

The district received eight complaints about illnesses potentially linked to air quality from 2001 to 2015.

The campus housed Monroe Middle School until it closed and Sky Valley Education Center took the space in 2011. Now, the K-12 alternative school serves more than 850 students.

After three complaints were made in October 2014, the district decided to test the building.

O’Neil said no contaminants were found in the school but the ventilation system was adjusted.

The fix stopped complaints until this past fall, she said.

During winter break, O’Neil said, the carpet was torn out of some classrooms in case it was contributing to poor air quality.

I didn’t need to make the Lynnwood-to-Bellevue drive when I-405 express toll lanes first opened in September.

Week after week, I’d hear morning traffic reports, which now include the changing prices of life in the I-405 fast lanes. I would read about drivers’ frustrations. Pay-to-go is only part of the system. It also hiked from two to three the number of people needed in a car for free use of the lanes.

Then came December and January, when I made several trips to Eastern Washington on I-90. Most of my drives started on Saturday mornings, with returns on weekend evenings. Rather than go into Seattle to access I-90, I took I-405.

What I saw was a ridiculous waste of two lanes. Nearly all the traffic was crammed into the general purpose lanes. Every now and then, I’d see a car in a toll lane. On Saturdays and Sundays, tolls were mostly 75 cents per trip.

Then came last Wednesday. I had a 10 a.m. appointment near Yakima. Despite a drive likely to be slow due to winter weather through Snoqualmie Pass, I had to go. Allowing for an extra hour on a typically two-and-a-half to three-hour drive, I left at 6 a.m.

No surprise, traffic was already heavy from Everett to Lynnwood.

I expected that. For years, I drove in carpools when my older kids attended Catholic high schools in Seattle. Having never made the weekday morning commute to Bellevue, I didn’t expect what I saw soon after exiting I-5 for I-405 — brake lights and more brake lights.

With speeds from dead-stop to 10 miles an hour, I looked for the express toll lane entry point.

I saw the price tag — $8.50 at the time — and made a quick decision. It was either get in or add an extra hour to a long trip.

Deputy won’t be charged in fatal Monroe incident

EVERETT — Snohomish County Prosecutor Mark Roe has declined to file criminal charges against a sheriff’s deputy who shot a suicidal man last year near Monroe.

The deputy put his spotlight on Tallant, who reportedly said his gun was in his pocket, and asked “what are you going to do about it?,” Roe wrote.

day when I had to be out early and on time, it was worth the cost.

There’s action in Olympia on improving the I-405 system, but not as much change as critics want.

On Tuesday, House Democrats announced changes developed with the state Department of Transportation to improve I-405 safety and congestion. The improvements include: lengthening access to the toll lanes where entry and exit has been difficult; making merging at the north and south end points easier and safer; and using signs to more clearly show when and how tolls are processed.

Those planned changes followed last week’s I-405 work session in the House Transportation Committee. It included state transportation officials, local governments, and a leader of a grassroots group that has gathered signatures on a petition to stop tolling.

In a letter to state officials, Transportation Committee members and lawmakers representing people along I-405 called for ongoing monitoring of the system. They also want toll lanes open to everyone on evenings,

weekends and holidays.

Also Tuesday, the leadership of the Stop405Tolls group expressed dissatisfaction that there won’t be a hearing on proposed legislation aimed at incrementally eliminating 405 toll lanes. House Bill 2312 was written by Rep. Mark Harmsworth, a Mill Creek Republican.

On Friday, Rep. Judy Clibborn, a Mercer Island Democrat and Transportation Committee chairwoman, said she wouldn’t schedule a hearing on the bill, nor on any companion version in the Senate.

“It is incredibly disturbing to know Rep. Clibborn carelessly ignores the unmistakable message of the collective voice of, at the present time, 30,000 frustrated commuters and taxpayers who have signed our anti-toll lane petition,” Cynthia Ulrich, one of the Stop405Tolls group founders, said Tuesday in a press release.

From behind the wheel, I’ve seen why petition signers are frustrated. Yet on one recent morning, the toll lanes were a huge help.

I see both sides. And I wasn’t going to do it, but I may get a Flex Pass.

1939-2016

June 9, 1992 - January 26, 2016

Born in 1939 in Yakima, Washington to George (Gus) a n d L o t t i e E l ke , d i e d o n J a n u a r y 2 5 , 2 016 i n a house fire in his home.

The family had moved from Yakima to Everett, Wa s h i n g t o n i n t h e e a r l y 1940’s, when his dad got a job in the naval shipyard in Everett during World War II. He attended Rosehill School in Mukilteo, Washington, first grade through the nineth grade.

Attended Everett High School until graduation in 1957.

Mike then joined the National Guard serving six months active duty in California, then five and a half years inactive at home.

He attended Everett Community College for two years, at which time he took up his Electrician Apprenticeship at The International Brotherhood of E l e c t r i c a l Wo r ke r s L o c a l Union 191. After achieving his Journeyman’s Electrical License, he then attended U n i ve r s i t y o f Wa s h i n g to n until he received his degree in Electrical Engineering.

Mike, from there, went to work for General Electric Co. as a field engineer, covering many of the west coast states including Alaska and Hawaii, until his retirement in the early 1990’s.

Retirement did not slow h i m d ow n , j u s t g ave h i m more time for his hobbies, which included model airplane and model ship building, hunting, fishing and trap shooting. He was a life member of the National Rifle Association and the Pacific International Trapshooting Association and the Amateur Trapshooting Association Mike never met anyone he didn’t like and had a heart as big as all outdoors.

Generously donating time and money to dif ferent groups, like to many youth oriented associations.

H e e s t a b l i s h e d a scholarship approximately 20 years ago to benefit U n i ve r s i t y o f Wa s h i n g to n students in the Electrical Engineering field.

Mike was preceded in d e a t h by h i s m ot h e r a n d father.

He survived by his younger brother, Steven (Steve’s wife Ellen) Elke of Everett; and by many friends, neighbors and family.

Per his request there will be no services, but, a memorial is being planned for later on this year.

Michael’s thought was “ W h e n s ay i n g g o o d b y e , always to tell loved ones “I L o v e Yo u ” a s y o u n e v e r know that it may be the last t i m e yo u c a n s ay t h a t to them”.

J e r e my D av i d O j a l e h t o , affectionately known as “G,” passed away Januar y 26, 2016 in Monroe, Washington at the age of 23.

G was born June 9, 1992 in Monroe, Washington. A 2010 graduate of Monroe High School, he completed three years at Cornell Univer sity in Ithaca, New Yo r k a n d h a d r e c e n t l y transferred to the University of Washington.

I t wa s G ’ s s t ro n g l y fe l t purpose to know and love the world. He was always looking around the next corner for new ideas and projects. He loved reading, and was rarely seen outside the company of a book, his journal, or headphones for an audiobook. His love for intellectual conversation and debate was matched by an uncommon ability to f ind deep connection with all those who came into his life.

He was the frat brother who initiated reading groups at the arboretum and the little brother who chopped firewood to keep the house warm. In all his wide-ranging work, G managed to combine a thriving wit with an infectious love for small details, equally enthused by pursuits in the library, in the lab, or in the garden.

I n O c to b e r, 2 01 3 , G suffered a Traumatic Brain Injury, initiating a long-term battle with mental illness. In the final years of his life, he found joy in hiking, spending time with family and friends, and especially playing with his nephews. His selfless courage fueled his struggle, making possible the i m m e a s u r a b l e g i f t to h i s family and friends of the last two and a half years of his life. These years remain an unspeakable expression of his devotion to ser vice, sacrifice, and care for those he loved.

He is survived by his father and stepmother, Hans and Susan Ojalehto; mother and stepfather, Laura and Steve Johnson; grandparents, Karl and Saima Ojalehto and Ruth Davison; siblings, Br yce and Trina, Troy and A l y s s a , B e t h a ny, H o l l y, Emilie and Blaine, and Heidi; s te p - s i b l i n g s , N i c o l e a n d Arthur and Melissa; nephews, Jeb, Wyatt, Malachi, Wynn, Max, Charlie, and William; and many beloved aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

A special thank you to Samantha and all the doctors and nurses, friends and family who supported us on this journey.

G’s life will be celebrated in a ceremony on Tuesday, February 2, 2016 at 11 A.M. at Cascade Community Church, 14377 167th Ave. SE, Monroe, WA.

Doug joined the Everett Fire Department in November 1962, was appointed Everett’s Fire Chief in June 1980, and retired as Fire Chief following a successful career in January 1990. In what may be an unprecedented career in fire service, Chief McNall was a prominent leader throughout his career and exemplified unselfish dedication regarding matters involving firefighters.

During his meritorious service, Doug was honored to serve as PresidentEverett Firefighters Local 350; President-Everett Firefighters Association; President-Washington State Council of Firefighters; and PresidentWashington Fire Chiefs Association.

Gardner Perry (Pete) Hawkins G a r d n e r P e r r y H aw k i n s

“Pete” – entered into his final rest on Thursday, Januar y 28, 2016, in Olympia, Washington.

Pete was born in Stanley Basin in rural Idaho, June 5, 1921, the first child of the marriage of Gardner Perr y “Doc” Hawkins and Hallie Gertrude Chapman. He had two older half-siblings (now deceased), Lancelot and Lillian Hawkins, as well as a y o u n g e r s i s t e r, t h e l a t e Grace (Hawkins) Benef iel and a younger brother, V. A. “Jack” Hawkins of Spokane, Washington.

Pete lived in Idaho only for his first year as the family relocated to Kansas City, Mo., and then to Houston, Mo. Pete recalled the trip across Missouri in a wagon pulled by mules; his mother baked Grace a cake for her fourth birthday on the trip.

His family lived through extremely hard times during the dust bowl years. He joined the Civilian Construction Corps at age 16 and afterwards worked as a hired hand and as a shor t-order cook. In St. Louis, he met and married his first wife, Oly; but when he joined the Navy in the spring after Pearl Harbor the marriage didn’t sur vive. A son, Gardner Leroy Hawkins, was the product of this marriage. Leroy was adopted away to a family Pete knew well, and though they always kept in touch Pete’s life was always a f fe c t e d b y h i s fe e l i n g s about this decision.

Pete became a Navy cook a n d w a s p r e s e n t fo r t h e invasion of Africa, serving near Safi and Casablanca, Morocco.

He loved sharing that while there, actress Martha R aye a p p e a r e d i n a U S O show, and he baked her a cherry pie. She came to his kitchen to personally t h a n ke d h i m fo r t h e p i e , w h i c h s h e p ro c l a i m e d a s “wonderful.” Injured in an air raid, he was sent home to t h e U S A fo r s u r g e r y, a n d then remained in the Navy to make seven convoys across the Atlantic. He was in London on convoy for the victor y i n E u r o p e .

Returning home, he met and married Eileen Harris ( n ow N e l s o n , o f S e a t t l e , Wash.) in 1945. They lived in St. Louis and produced three children there: Gale C y p h e r ( O l y mp i a , Wa s h . ) ;

Gwen Shapiro (Durham, N.C.); Gardner Perry Hawkins III (Olympia). Moving to Seattle, Wash. in 1955, they had three more children: Gerald (Santa Clara, Calif.); Gregory (Lake Stevens, Wash.); and Geni (Auburn, Wash.). Pete and Eileen divorced in 1960.

Pete remarried in 1966 to the late Alta (nee Peterson) Shielee. This union brought several young step-children that Pete accepted as his own: Wayne Shielee (Gresham, Ore.), the late Robert Shielee, and Elaine (Shielee) E g g i n k ( L a s Ve g a s , N ev. ) and their older sister, Joan Marshall. Pete had ten grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren, and he added to that Wayne’s three children and their families and Joan’s daughter.

Pete worked as a taxi driver and dispatcher, and later drove buses for Seattle Transit and the Northshore School District. Settling in Bothell, Wash. in 1962, he worked for Northshore until his retirement in 1983, as b u s d r i v e r, c u s t o d i a n , m a i n te n a n c e wo r ke r a n d warehouseman.

Pete was an avid fisherman a n d h u n te r i n h i s a c t i ve years. He played league softball for Seattle Transit and won a number of trophies at table tennis. He was also an avid pool player and bowler for many years. Pete always enjoyed being busy and kept a garden, building his own greenhouse to enable him to have fresh tomatoes. He enjoyed using a variety of CB and other two-way radios. He was quite active in the American Legion, and was Post Commander of the BothellWoodinville post.

Pete wa s k n ow n fo r h i s smile and the twinkle in his eyes. He enjoyed telling stories and tall tales. He loved watching baseball and was a proud St. Louis Cardinals fan until the Mariners came to Seattle and his loyalties moved to them. He enjoyed meeting famed announcer Harry Caray at a spring training game and they spoke about Caray’s broadcasts of the Cardinals games in the early 1950s.

Pete developed COPD around the age of 80, and the need for oxygen began to limit his mobility. He later developed a severe aor tic aneurysm, and that condition further restricted his activities. Pete kept his mental faculties throughout his late life, until a broken bone in his hip joint required surger y, from which he never fully recovered. Pete had the constant attention of family through his declining health.

He was also helped in the final weeks by the Cassidy Family Home of Olympia.

$5.4 billion spent on legal pot The Washington Post Americans spent $5.4 billion on legal recreational and medical marijuana last year, according to new estimates from ArcView Market Research and New Frontier Data, two marijuana industry market research groups.

The total includes more than a half-billion dollars in sales in Washington state, over $1 billion in medical marijuana sales in California and nearly $1 billion in legal marijuana sales in Colorado.

To put that $5.4 billion number in perspective, that’s more money than Americans spent on Doritos, Cheetos and Funyuns combined in 2015, according to market research

firm Euromonitor.

With $5.4 billion, you can get America legally stoned for a year. Or you could have used the money to send the New Horizons probe to Pluto, the Curiosity rover to Mars, and had enough money left over to purchase the entire output of the Cheescake Factory for a year.

Keep in mind that $5.4 billion represents only legal marijuana sales. Illegal sales still account for considerably more than that, although it’s hard to know just how much.

In 2012, drug policy experts Jonathan Caulkins, Angela Hawken, Beau Kilmer and Mark Kleiman estimated the total market value of legal and illegal marijuana sales to be in

the $15 billion to $30 billion range.

ArcView estimates that the legal sales are going to grow at an approximately 30 percent annual rate over the next five years as more states jump on the legalization bandwagon.

Vermont may be the next to do so if its legislature passes a legalization bill this year. Voters in California, Nevada, Massachusetts and a handful of other states will decide whether to legalize marijuana this fall.

A 30 percent annual growth would put the legal marijuana industry at something like $22 billion in annual revenue by 2020, according to ArcView.

The group is encouraging investors to jump in: “Legalization of cannabis is one of

greatest business opportunities of our time, and it’s still early enough to see huge growth,” they write in the introduction to their report.

But as they also note, plenty of challenges to the industry remain. First and foremost is the vast and growing disconnect between federal policy, under which marijuana is 100 percent illegal, and laws in the states that have legalized it.

Because of federal restrictions, marijuana businesses still don’t have access to banks. They can’t take advantage of the tax breaks other industries enjoy. The threat of raids by overzealous drug cops is ever-present, despite congressional efforts to curtail these actions.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Hillary Clinton narrowly won the Democratic caucuses in Iowa, outpacing a surprisingly strong challenge from Bernie Sanders to claim the first victory in the 2016 race for president. The former secretary of state, senator from New York and first lady edged past the Vermont senator in a race the Iowa Democratic Party called the closest in its caucus history. The Iowa Democratic Party said Tuesday that it would not do any recount of the results, and a spokesman for the Sanders campaign said it does not intend to challenge the results of the caucuses.

New York: Caucus viewers The 2016 race for the White House is the ratings gift that keeps on giving for cable news. Fox News Channel, CNN and MSNBC all saw their largest audiences ever for coverage of the Iowa caucuses Monday, as Sen. Ted Cruz was victorious on the Republican side and Hillary Clinton squeaked out a victory over Sen. Bernie Sanders in her quest for the Democratic nomination. Fox News Channel led on the night with 4.46 million viewers from 8 to 11 p.m. Eastern time, up 81 percent from the 2.63 million viewers who watched its Iowa caucuses coverage in 2012, the previous high.

A small earthquake served as a wakeup call Tuesday for sleeping residents in Eastport, the easternmost city in the U.S. The magnitude 3.3 earthquake, among the smallest generally felt by people, was recorded just before 7 a.m. in the waters between Maine and Canada, and about 6 miles northeast of the city, the U.S. Geological Survey said.

Some residents in the city of about 1,300 people reported waking to booming and rumbling sounds, but officials say there were no damage reports.

isolated reports of transmission through sexual activity.

But if the virus is shown to be transmitted readily through sexual contact, it could only further complicate efforts to halt Zika’s spread.

The CDC is now saying that the best way to avoid Zika virus infection is to prevent mosquito bites and for sexual partners to wear condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections.

“We do not have definitive information on the infectious time period, and will provide more guidance for individuals and clinicians as we learn more,” the agency said. “Sexual partners can protect themselves by using condoms to prevent spreading sexually transmitted infections. People who have Zika virus infection can protect others by preventing additional mosquito bites.

CDC said it will issue guidance in the coming days on prevention of sexual transmission of Zika virus, with a focus

on the male sexual partners of women who are or who may be pregnant.

Until more is known, the agency said, the CDC continues to recommend that women and women trying to become pregnant postpone travel to the areas where Zika virus transmission is ongoing. Pregnant women who live in or travel to one of these areas should talk to their doctor or other healthcare professional first and strictly follow steps to avoid mosquito bites during the trip.

Pregnant women should also avoid exposure to semen from someone who has been exposed to Zika virus, the agency said. Women trying to become pregnant should consult with their health-care professional if their partner has had exposure to Zika virus.

Health experts said the Dallas case raises new questions about how the virus is spread.

“It looks like a pretty well documented case of sexual transmission,” said Anthony

Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases.

“Obviously, this adds a new dimension that needs to be addressed,” he said, noting CDC’s plans to update its guidance on the subject.

For medical confidentiality and personal privacy reasons, Dallas health authorities said they are not providing additional identifying information.

“Now that we know Zika virus can be transmitted through sex, this increases our awareness campaign in educating the public about protecting themselves and others,” said Zachary Thompson, DCHHS director. “Next to abstinence, condoms are the best prevention method against any sexually-transmitted infections.”

The World Health Organization designated the Zika virus and its suspected complications in newborns as a public health emergency of international concern Monday.

Blast forces an emergency landing Associated Press MOGADISHU, Somalia — An explosion and fire blew a gaping hole in a commercial airliner, forcing it to make an emergency landing at Mogadishu’s international airport Tuesday, officials said.

The pilot said he thought it was a bomb. An aviation expert who looked at photographs of the hole in the fuselage said the damage was consistent with an explosive device.

Two people were slightly injured as 74 passengers and crew of the plane were evacuated after the plane made a safe landing, Somali aviation official Ali Mohamoud said. It was not certain if all the passengers were accounted for.

The plane, operated by Daallo Airlines and headed to Djibouti in the Horn of Africa, was forced to land minutes after taking off from

Clinton takes Iowa, beating back Sanders

Maine: Quake rocks town

The Washington Post Dallas health officials said Tuesday that a local resident was infected with the Zika virus by having sex with a person who contracted the disease while traveling in Venezuela.

The Centers of Disease Control and Prevention said the traveler and the sexual partner tested positive for Zika virus, which has been linked to birth defects in Brazil.

This represents the first case of someone being infected while in the U.S. during this outbreak, the CDC said Tuesday. The other Zika cases in the U.S. have all involved people who have returned from Zikaaffected regions. The CDC is now urging sexual partners to wear condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections.

“CDC has confirmed through laboratory testing the first case of U.S. Zika virus infection in a non-traveler in the continental United States,” the agency said.

“According to a Dallas County Health Department investigation, a person who recently traveled to an area with Zika virus transmission returned to the United States and developed Zika-like symptoms. The person later tested positive for Zika, along with their sexual partner, who had not traveled to the area. In this instance there was no risk to a developing fetus,” the CDC said.

Public health officials have stressed that the Zika virus, which has now spread to nearly 30 countries and regions, is transmitted primarily by mosquitoes. There have been

the Mogadishu airport, said Mohamoud.

“I think it was a bomb,” said the Serbian pilot, Vladimir Vodopivec. “Luckily, the flight controls were not damaged so I could return and land at the airport. Something like this has never happened in my flight career. We lost pressure in the cabin. Thank god

it ended well,” the 64-year-old pilot said.

Awale Kullane, Somalia’s deputy ambassador to the U.N. who was on board the flight, said on Facebook that he “heard a loud noise and couldn’t see anything but smoke for a few seconds.”

When visibility returned they realized “quite a chunk” of the

plane was missing, he wrote.

Kullane, who was going to Djibouti to attend a conference for diplomats, also posted a video showing some passengers putting on oxygen masks inside the plane. The post was later removed from his Facebook page.

“We don’t know a lot, but certainly it looks like a device,” said John Goglia, a former member of the U.S. National Transportation Safety and aviation safety expert. There are only two things that could have caused a hole in the plane that looks like the one in photos circulated online — a bomb or a pressurization blowout caused by a flaw or fatigue in the plane’s skin, Goglia said.

The photos appear to show black soot around the aircraft skin that is peeled back, said Goglia. A pressurization blowout wouldn’t create soot, but a bomb would, he said.

N. Jersey: Elevator tumble Federal authorities said an elevator repair worker fell seven stories to his death down a shaft. An Occupational Safety and Health Administration spokeswoman said it happened Tuesday at the Galaxy Towers in Guttenberg.

The condominium complex is composed of three octagonal towers that each rise 415 feet over the banks of the Hudson River. OSHA said the worker was employed by Slade Elevator, which has offices in Mountainside and New York City. The worker’s name and the circumstances of the accident have not been released. OSHA is investigating.

AROUND THE WORLD N. Korea: Satellite launch The government said Tuesday it planned to launch a satellite-carrying rocket as early as next week, a move that also could showcase potential advances in military-use technology less than a month after an apparent nuclear test.

A rocket launch — despite the North’s claims of a peaceful space program — would likely stir further alarm in the West and across Asia as another act of defiance by Pyongyang. In Washington, the State Department official in charge of East Asian affairs said the purported plans “argue even more strongly” for tougher U.N. sanctions on the North.

Malaysia: Ship hijackings A global maritime watchdog said Tuesday that ship hijackings declined in 2015 from a year earlier, while sea piracy incidents increased slightly but consisted mostly of low-level theft. The International Maritime Bureau said in its annual piracy report that 246 piracy incidents were recorded worldwide, one up from 2014. It said pirates hijacked 15 vessels and held 271 hostages, down from 21 ships and 442 hostages in 2014.

It attributed the drop in hijackings to a fall in attacks against small fuel tankers around Southeast Asia’s coasts, the last of which occurred in August.

Italy: Smoking limitations Smokers are now facing fines of up to $600 if they light up in a car with a child or pregnant woman — or if they toss a cigarette butt on the street — after new health and environmental laws went into effect Tuesday. The smoking prohibitions extend bans on smoking in offices, restaurants, cinemas and other public places to the more private sphere of a car. The measures are in a new law aimed at dissuading young people from taking up the habit.

Feds probe drug-price boosts Documents reveal how firms bought existing drugs, then jacked up their prices.

Associated Press Federal lawmakers have released excerpts from thousands of documents detailing how two drugmakers hiked prices to squeeze more revenue from some live-saving medicines, a practice that has recently sparked

public outrage.

The congressional review of more than 300,000 pages from Turing Pharmaceuticals and Valeant Pharmaceuticals highlights the internal strategies the companies used to dramatically raise prices of drugs for patients with heart problems or conditions such as AIDS. The new documents were released Tuesday by Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Maryland, ahead of a hearing Thursday to examine spikes in prices for several

drugs. Cummings has used his ranking position atop the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform to investigate several companies that have bought previously low-cost drugs and jacked up their prices many times over.

Cummings said the documents show “that many drug companies are lining their pockets at the expense of some of the most vulnerable families in our nation.”

The document release comes after Turing’s former CEO

Martin Shkreli last year became the poster child of pharmaceutical-industry greed after hiking the price of a life-saving drug called Daraprim by more than 5,000 percent. Daraprim is the only approved drug for a life-threatening parasitic infection called taxoplasmosis, which mainly strikes patients with weakened immune systems, including those with cancer and AIDS. The patent on the drug expired decades ago.

Private air traffic control?

from the billions of dollars spent on modernization.

The agency’s case hasn’t been helped by reports from the department’s inspector general that say system costs have doubled over two decades while productivity declined, and improvements ordered by Congress were ineffective. Some of the nation’s busiest air traffic facilities don’t have enough controllers while others have too many.

Under Shuster’s plan the system would still be financed with taxes on plane tickets, aviation fuel and other fees. The private corporation that directs it would use the money to float bonds to help pay for long-term modernization, free of worry about

whether Congress would approve its budget. The FAA would continue to enforce air safety rules.

“The FAA suffers from an unstable procurement system and an unpredictable federal funding structure that hampers the agency” and keeps it from staying current with new technology, said David Grizzle, a former head of FAA’s air traffic organization and a proponent of the plan.

U.S. airlines, with the notable exception of Delta, are the lobbying muscle behind Shuster’s proposal. They’ve been pushing the idea since at least the mid1990s, but it hasn’t taken off in part because of solid opposition from the air traffic controllers union and its Democratic allies in Congress.

Now, that may be changing.

Paul Rinaldi, president of the National Air Traffic Controllers Association, has said he’s withholding judgment on privatization until he sees the details of Shuster’s plan.

Congressional money spats unrelated to air traffic control shut down the FAA briefly in 2011, and similar infighting led to controllers being temporarily furloughed in 2013, snarling air traffic across the country. Union officials now say removing air traffic operations from Congress’ oversight might provide greater stability.

U.S. whiskey producers toast strong sales Associated Press

FRANKFORT, Ky. — Producers of Kentucky bourbon and Tennessee whiskey are toasting another year of strong sales and revenue growth, led by consumers increasingly ordering high-priced, super-premium brands.

Combined U.S. revenues for bourbon, Tennessee whiskey and rye whiskey shot up 7.8 percent to $2.9 billion in 2015, up $210 million from the prior year, the Distilled Spirits Council said Tuesday.

Domestic volume rose 5.2 percent last year to 20.4 million cases, the distilled spirits trade group said.

Iran will buy 20 new planes from ATR Iran’s national carrier has signed an agreement to buy 20 new passenger airplanes with an option for 20 more from French-Italian aircraft manufacturer ATR, Iranian media reported Tuesday. The deal is reportedly worth $1.08 billion. The purchase comes a week after Iran Air signed a deal to buy 118 planes from the European consortium Airbus, signaling a major effort to develop the civilian aviation sector now that international sanctions have been lifted under a landmark nuclear deal. Iran also has expressed interest in buying passenger aircraft from Boeing.

Feds to widen probe of Chipotle

U.S. airlines, with the notable exception of Delta, are the lobbying muscle behind the proposal.

WASHINGTON — The air traffic control system that choreographs the roughly 7,000 aircraft in U.S. skies at any given moment is the most complex, but also one of the safest, in the world — and rarely a thought in the minds of the millions of travelers who rely on it.

A Republican House committee chairman is launching a push this week to take away control of that system from the government and hand it to a nonprofit corporation directed by the airlines, airports, labor unions, business aircraft operators and private pilots, among others. The idea is already generating turbulence as lawmakers and lobbyists line up for and against it.

House Transportation committee chairman Bud Shuster, R-Pa., said last summer when he announced his idea that the U.S. is lagging behind other nations in the transition from a radar-based system to one based on satellites.

It’s questionable whether the present system is capable of sustaining current demands, let alone future growth, he said, arguing that delays already cost passengers and the economy $30 billion a year.

The Federal Aviation Administration, which operates the present system, has been working on its “NextGen” modernization program for more than a decade and said much progress has been made. But airlines say they have yet to see significant benefits

Chris Morris, master distiller at Brown-Forman Corp., producer of Woodford Reserve and Old Forester bourbons. “We’re hitting our numbers as we had predicted.”

Bourbon and Tennessee whiskey revenues and volumes outpaced the overall distilled spirits sector, the council said in its annual report. Rye whiskey amounts to a sliver of those overall revenue and volume figures, but it’s a fast-growing part of the segment.

The popularity of top-tier products spread across the whiskey category, with double-digit gains for super-premium Scotch, Canadian and Irish whiskeys as well, the council said.

sales from producers or suppliers to wholesalers.

Meanwhile, bourbon and Tennessee whiskey exports topped $1 billion for the third straight year, despite challenges caused by a strong dollar, the trade group said. A strong dollar makes U.S. goods less competitive.

Overall U.S. spirits exports have more than doubled in the past decade, from $743 million in 2005 to a projected $1.56 billion last year, the council said.

Chipotle said the scope of a previously disclosed federal criminal investigation has widened beyond a single restaurant in California. The Denver company said it has been served with another subpoena requiring it produce documents related to company-wide food safety dating back to the start of 2013. Previously, it had said it was served a subpoena in relation to a California restaurant, where there was a norovirus outbreak over the summer. Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. also confirms its sales sank 14.6 percent at established locations for the fourth quarter after an E. coli outbreak and a separate norovirus incident sickened dozens of people.

Comcast plans for gigabit service With Google Fiber and AT&T rushing into the superfast gigabit market for online streaming, Comcast Corp. disclosed plans Tuesday for gigabit services in Atlanta, Detroit, Chicago, Miami and Nashville, Tennessee. The turbo-charged Xfinity Internet service will first be available in early 2016 in Atlanta and Nashville. Detroit, Chicago and Miami will follow later in 2016. Comcast did not release pricing. Most Comcast Internet customers today purchase a 50-megabit-per-second service that’s one-twentieth the speed of a gigabit. The Philadelphia area, where Comcast is based, is not part of the company’s initial gigabit rollout.

UPS nearly triples fourth-quarter profit UPS nearly tripled its fourth-quarter profit and seemed to avoid many of the holiday package-delivery breakdowns that it suffered a year earlier. The company said that through greater use of automation and working with retailers, it was able to smooth out some of the spikes that overwhelmed its network in late 2014. Executives said the peak holiday season was a success. UPS expects 2016 earnings of between $5.70 and $5.90 per share, which would be an increase of between 5 percent and 9 percent over 2015 and stronger than Wall Street expected. Analysts were forecasting $5.72 per share in 2016, according to a FactSet survey.

Company presentations released Tuesday show that as early as last May, Turing planned to turn Daraprim into a $200-million-ayear drug by dramatically increasing its price. Turing purchased the six-decadeold drug from Impax Laboratories in August for $55 million and promptly raised its price.

Shkreli said in an email to one contact: “We raised the price from $1,700 per bottle to $75,000. Should be a very handsome investment for all of us.”

House staffers said they received more than 250,000 pages of documents from New York-based Turing as part of its investigation.

In addition, the committee reviewed more than 75,000 pages of documents from Canadian drugmaker Valeant and says they show that CEO Michael Pearson decided to buy two life-saving heart drugs, Nitropress and Isuprel, to dramatically increase prices and drive up his company’s revenue and profit.

Laval, Quebec-based Valeant Pharmaceuticals International Inc. bought the drugs for $350 million from Marathon Pharmaceuticals about a year ago and then tripled the price for one and increased the other six-fold.

The memo also said Valeant identified revenue goals first and then drug prices to reach those goals.

of fixing a problem that doesn’t exist,” Nelson said.

DeFazio has said he plans to offer a counterproposal that attempts to protect the FAA from the funding vagaries of Congress but stops short of privatization.

There’s also bipartisan opposition to privatization from the top members of the Senate and House appropriations committees and their transportation subcommittees, who would lose some of

their legislative turf if the FAA budget were removed from their control.

“We have concerns about any proposal that would transfer all decisions on financial investments and fees — on airlines and the public — to an independent entity that is not accountable to the people we serve,” the senior GOP and Democratic members of the House Appropriations Committee said in a letter to their party leaders released Tuesday.

Other anti-privatization arguments are coming from businesses that use their own planes to fly employees around, private pilots and air taxi services that fear airlines and the large airports that serve them will dominate the new corporation’s board.

Airlines could push those smaller services out of large airports to make room for more airliners, or force them to pay a bigger share of the system’s costs, they said.

Cummings first requested documents from Valeant and Turing last August and September, respectively. Both companies initially refused to comply, prompting Cummings and other Democrats to request that their Republican colleagues issue subpoenas for the information.

Earlier this month, Republican Chairman Jason Chaffetz of Utah signed a subpoena for Shkreli and invited Valeant’s interim CEO Howard Schiller to testify.

On Thursday, the House Committee is scheduled to hear testimony from Turing’s chief commercial officer, Nancy Retzlaff and Valeant Pharmaceutical’s interim CEO, Howard Schiller. Schiller was appointed to the position last month after Pearson was hospitalized with severe pneumonia.

IN OUR VIEW | Low-barrier housing for homeless

Building on success of others The news isn’t good, but the timing of the City of Everett, Snohomish County and others is.

Last week’s Point in Time survey of homelessness in Snohomish County found a significant increase over the previous year, as reported Tuesday by Herald Writer Noah Haglund. The one-day tally last week found 481 without shelter, a 54 percent increase from 2015’s 312.

Most are single adults, but the number of homeless families also has jumped, more than doubling to 35 this year from last year’s count of 16.

That news came out the same day as two forums brought together county and city officials, advocates for homeless services programs and others in the county to downtown Everett, as reported today by Herald Writer Chris Winters. Updating afternoon and evening forums regarding what is now a centerpiece of Everett’s Streets Initiative programs, Mayor Ray Stephanson announced that the city is working with the YWCA to provide low-barrier housing to five chronically homeless individuals deemed to be most in need based on their frequent and costly use of public services.

The YWCA and Everett plan to find housing for 15 more this

year. With a pledge of $1 million each from the city and the county and hopes for $2 million from the state, Everett is in talks to purchase and refurbish a property to provide some 60 units of low-barrier housing.

While low-barrier housing, also known as “housing first” may be new to many in the county, the practice is becoming more common across the country and Washington state.

Previously, Everett brought Lloyd Pendleton, director of Utah’s Housing First program, to speak at a November forum.

Monday’s forum featured three advocates whose agencies offer low-barrier housing in Seattle and Spokane, each offering advice as Everett and other communities in Snohomish County consider and begin similar programs.

Recognizing that many of those chronically homeless are suffering with issues of addiction and mental illness, the goal is to use housing as a gateway to needed services, rather than as coercion to change behaviors, said Daniel Malone, executive director for DESC in Seattle.

Everett can expect some push-back on the idea, said Rob McCann, executive director of Catholic Charities Spokane. But what has earned his community’s support,

he said, was the opportunity to prove that it works, that it provides stable housing and an opportunity to connect with services. Since its Father Bach Haven opened in 2013 with 50 units, 80 percent of its residents remain in stable housing. Where the Spokane region was spending as much as $200,000 annually for police, aid, hospital and other services for each chronically homeless person, the cost of housing and services is now only $11,000 per person.

McCann and Mary Jane Brell Vujovic, director of Snohomish County Human Services, also argued against the myth that providing lowbarrier housing would attract homeless people from outside the area. An intake survey of homeless in Spokane found 90 percent were born and raised within 40 miles of downtown Spokane, McCann said. That echoes what the most recent Point in Time survey in the county found, Brell Vujovic said, that those who are coming from outside the area are not coming for services but for job opportunities that aren’t always there.

McCann, Malone and Kelli Larsen, with the Plymouth Housing Group in Seattle, also urged that necessary services be located in the building with

cable news alternatives are having a far-reaching and positive effect on bringing truth to media that often have a great aversion to it. Americans are going to take their country back despite the great efforts of those who would stand in the way to protect their own power and influence.

would tolerate this tactic from the Republicans.

residents or at least nearby, that expectations for residents’ behavior are articulated and that organizations administering the housing be responsive to neighbors and act quickly to address any concerns.

The chronically homeless are not the only homeless population that needs assistance, as the increase in homeless families shows. The pending loss of the Everett Housing Authority’s Baker Heights units and the federal government’s move away from federal housing to vouchers and an increase in rental costs, poses a different problem for Everett and other cities in the county that also must be addressed by increasing the inventory of affordable housing.

But finding stable housing for those most vulnerable to crime, addiction and untreated mental illness will improve lives and the community. Everett is following the right path in providing and raising the capital to build facilities that can be operated by partners in the community who have experience in providing services.

“How it gets done,” said Larsen, to a nearly full house at the Historic Everett Theatre on Monday night, “is by having all these people in a room who care.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■IMMIGRATION

GOP earlier discounted wall I think the Republicans invented the phrase “flip flop” and the biggest one ever is taking place right now. The Republican front runners have made it clear if elected, what they would do to any illegal immigrants in the U.S. George W. Bush in 2004, running for re-election, went on the Bill O’Reilly TV show.

The question was asked what would he do about the flood of illegal immigrants coming into the country. They are just poor people making $1 an hour in Mexico; they come here and make $5 an hour and have a better life. No, I don’t plan on doing anything about it.

Without a doubt, that statement was an open invitation to cross the border.

■■PRESIDENTIAL RACE

Establishment needs reckoning The current populism for Donald Trump has absolutely zero to do with Trump himself. It has everything to do with an angry American populace tired of being lied to, victimized, and stolen from by career politicians who go along to get along, always catering to donors while essentially flipping the bird to average American taxpayers. Well, Americans have had enough. If you are one of those “establishment” politicians who have long wallowed in the cesspool of Washington politics, you are persona-nongrata this election cycle.

Americans have wised up and are willing to elect anyone who is not establishment.

If ever there was a time to enact term limits, now would be it. The stench has finally overcome the masses and there is a revelation that “We the People” still matter. The mainstream media is late to the party in recognizing this, but that is no real surprise as they have run roughshod over our country for far too long.

Honest journalism died long ago, but social media and

Trump would get GOP to do right I remember President Obama had a budget to put money into fixing and improving this country’s infrastructure. Roads, bridges, flood control, etc.

This would have benefited corporations, small businesses, workers and their family, children, the elderly and all across this country’s population spectrum.

This bill was killed by the Republicans. It was killed not because they had a better plan or a legitimate reason to oppose it, but because if they voted for it and it succeeded it would make President Obama look good. This will happen if Hillary Clinton or Bernie Sanders is elected. I don’t believe that Donald Trump

■■RELIGION

The point is to not impose it Most of us have the decency to respect religious views. Especially those of us who value our churches. But many with religious ideas seem hell-bent on disrespectfully imposing their views on society. They rant about an imaginary war on Christianity. And any idea is ethical as long as it comes from the Bible.

But according to the Bible, women who are unfaithful to their husbands should be stoned. Those who have feelings for the same sex should deny those feelings lest God condemn them for eternity.

God is also in favor, according to the Bible, of annihilating whole populations of unbelievers, women and children to be specific. This must be the same God that spoke to George W. Bush. And, my all time favorite: slaves should just buck up and show their masters respect.

Excuse my sarcasm but I feel I’m just being honest. No sacred book deserves a free ride. Millions of Christians believe that fundamentalists, who seem unable to process

these contradictions in the Bible, often have a political/ social philosophy that lacks basic human empathy to say nothing of the type of love Christ proposed. They talk like they have never even read the Sermon on the Mount. As Gandhi said: Everyone knows what Christ said, except Christians. The Bible calls Christ the Word of God. The concept that the Bible is the inerrant Word of God is, and always has been, patently absurd. I think that, regardless of their religious inclinations, voters should categorically reject any politician, particularly Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin (the Christian bookstore darling), who call for values that usually result in a world the majority of us just don’t want.

Rick Walker Snohomish

Not how GOP, Fox or Bundys planned things

P

op. Sploosh. That sound you DON’T hear is exploding heads of Trump supporters.

After decades of purposeful preparation, holding incompatible thoughts has become stress-free, making it effortless to reconcile their love for him with his attacks on their most sanctified source of “news.” If nothing else, the audation of The Donald reveals the cyniSID SCHWAB cism — and undeniable success! — of plans hatched well before the ascendency of Newt Gingrich, furthered by right wing radio and, ironically, perfected by Fox “news.”

Decades past, Republican leaders concocted a brilliant way to produce voters who’d elect representatives ready to enact their dream of unregulated plutocracy: distract them with objects of anger, fear and resentment. Play to religious paranoia.

Devalue education and expertise. Bankrolled by the Koch brothers, up sprang the tea party as the vehicle for getting there, and now, like Dr. Frankenstein, the powermad geniuses must contend with their uncontrollable creation. Trump and Cruz, the concepti of Gingrichorovian impregnation of the party, have turned to patricide.

To a cynic like me, the rarity of such karmic poetry makes it all the more satisfying.

But if it’s entertaining, it’s also scary.

Whatever else is true of those two vainglorious demagogues, they’re nothing like the thoughtful conservative counterbalance that a functioning democracy requires. Neither are their indiscriminately angry adherents. Trump is a thin-skinned egotist given to childish insults and substance-free declarations, having only shallow political ideas like building a wall (illegal immigration has dropped dramatically on Obama’s watch) and banning Muslims. Cruz is an incendiary Bible-thumping claimer of, as his daddy just confirmed, Christ-like martyrdom, which somehow excuses his fabrications from the Mount. Caught being untruthful, Democratic candidates try to wiggle. Republicans high-five.

I chuckle over the heartburn Trump is causing Republican Party leaders; at Cruz and his self-righteous religious zeal, I shudder. He’s Elmer Gantry, suffused with Torquemada and Jim Jones. Now that he’s the front-runner out of Iowa, let’s hope he’ll go the way of prior winners there, Huckabee and Bachmann.

Speaking of laughing while cringing, how about the wildlife at Malheur? I don’t know if the FBI had guidance from the White House, but it seems pretty Obama-like to have refrained from rushing in with guns blazing, waiting instead for the militiamen to become laughing stock over their own ineptitude. (Not that ISIS is as incompetent as they are, or that solving the Middle East is comparable to shutting down a bunch of self-absorbed misunderstanders of the Constitution. But the initial restraint is familiar.)

It was worth the frustration of seeing those guys do their dance without any evident push-back, ultimately to witness their quick capitulation in the face of what appears to be a well-planned trap. I’m sorry for the man who lost his life, no matter his stated intentions. With their hoped-for martyr, the militia movement will live on.

Their misdirected fury is as much a part of the fabric woven by the aforementioned right-wing manipulators as are Trump and Cruz and those citizens in their thrall.

Absent compelling alternatives, “establishment” Republicans seem to be counting on the resurrection of Marco Rubio, who so far hasn’t figured out which persona to inhabit: standard issue religious regressive and political prevaricator, or the hoped-for new voice. Handsome, young, a facile speaker, he seems unable or afraid to try anything but time-tested boilerplate flogging of resentment (Esquire. com: tinyurl.com/real-rubio). Obama has done “incredible damage” to the U.S., he declared on Fox “news” the other day. If that isn’t stooping to conquer, what is?

And what is this disaster of which he speaks? Employment? Medicaid? The auto industry? Budget deficits, the stock market, energy dependence, gas prices?

Corporate profits, the Koch brothers’ wealth? Or is it the carnage in the Middle East uncorked by his predecessor and still confounding containment? Because that, at least, is true. Rubio, though, and Trump, and Cruz and all the other Republican candidates have assured us that they’ll fix it right up, by sending in more troops and pounding the hell out of the region.

History tells us something about that but I seem to have forgotten what it is.

This year’s attempt at reform is House Bill 2576, authored by Rep. Joan McBride, D-Kirkland, a former Kirkland City Council member. It has 15 co-sponsors, including Rep. Cindy Ryu, D-Shoreline.

Appleton conducted a hearing on it last month and the Local Government Committee could vote to pass it as early as Wednesday.

“This is a very modest bill and a good, elegant first step in dealing with that 1 percent of records requests that are harassing,” McBride testified at the Jan. 28 hearing.

It would let cities, counties and other local government bodies limit how much time its staff spends responding to public records requests each month, subject to certain conditions, including

making more information about budgets and spending easily available for public inspection.

It also would allow governments to prioritize the handling of requests based on the volume of records sought and the number of requests the requestor has made in the preceding 12 months.

Supporters contend this provision would enable demands from serial requesters and data mining firms to be put behind those from individuals, noncommercial entities and the media. A government body would be required to conduct a public hearing on any proposed rules before adopting them.

The bill also would establish a new fiveperson Public Records Commission to help resolve disputes between those seeking documents and public agencies.

And it would allow higher fees to be collected from an individual or company that intends to sell or resell the information for profit. Existing law limits agencies to recouping only

the cost of copying and providing the documents.

Rowland Thompson, executive director of Allied Daily Newspapers, and Toby Nixon, president of the Washington Coalition on Open Government oppose the bill as written.

“It is a grab bag of the good, the bad and the ugly,” Thompson said Tuesday. (The Daily Herald is a member of the organization.)

Finding a way to handle vexing requesters is good, he said. But the bad and ugly in the bill would enable requesters to be asked why they want the records. That could have a chilling effect on whistleblowers, journalists and anyone wanting to keep their reasons and identity private, he said.

State law generally does not allow governments to pick and choose how to respond to individual records requesters. In 2011, legislators tweaked the law to impede the ability of inmates to collect fines in records cases and set up a means to enjoin people serving a criminal sentence from using records laws to

harass or intimidate others.

“There is nothing in this bill that gets at the giant requests directly,” Nixon said, adding he thinks cities would like to see those prisoner provisions universally applied. He said the group’s legal committee is trying to craft different language for the bill.

This year’s debate on the Public Records Act comes after a few huge requests, including several whoppers from Tim Clemans, of Seattle.

Clemans sought millions of records from the University of Washington in January 2015 and then sought millions more from all state-level agencies the following month.

Both requests were denied because Clemans requests didn’t comport with the Public Records Act by seeking identifiable records as the law requires.

Undeterred, Clemans made more headlines by filing similar requests at dozens of King County cities. He’s also made thousands of records requests in Seattle by “bot,” writing computer code to repeatedly submit demands

for records.

Snohomish County has struggled with several big demands, too, Sara DiVittori, a deputy prosecuting attorney told the legislative committee last month.

She talked about a request that sought all emails and documents generated by all county workers. It was estimated there would be 12 million records responsive to the request and it would take 56 years to fill it at a rate of 1,100 pages a day, she said.

Within four days the county spent $17,000 to rebuild an old server to store all the responsive documents. They prepared to spend another $83,000 for equipment to retain the material for all those years and roughly $5 million on staff to work solely on the request.

The person withdrew their request one week after submitting it, she said, but the county had already spent the $17,000.

Stories like these are why Rep. Terry Nealey, R-Dayton, one of the bill’s co-sponsors, said advocates for open government and the media should

back the legislation now proposed.

“They should be on our side,” he said “This bill helps them. It attempts to fix the problem of not tying up local government so they don’t get caught in the long line behind what I call improper requests.”

The bill is heading in the right direction but not there yet, Nixon said.

“I think we’re making progress,” he said. “The more we work, the closer we get to something we’re willing to try.”

He and Thompson suggested a task force be formed to work on language in the interim.

Also, in August, the state Auditor’s Office is expected to release a report on how much money local governments spend fulfilling public records requests and how the nature and volume of records requests affects their operations.

“We need to do something,” Appleton said. “I just don’t know what the answer is. I don’t think anyone does. The only way to keep the conversation going is to keep the bill moving.”

LOCAL, NORTHWEST BRIEFLY

Marysville girl missing after falling into ocean PORTLAND, Ore. — Oregon State Police identified a girl who has been missing since falling into the Pacific Ocean as Megan Owens, 17, of Marysville.

Lt. Steve Mitchell said the girl was one of four youths climbing Monday at Cape Kiwanda in Tillamook County. She fell off rocks into an area known as the Punch Bowl.

The Coast Guard sent helicopter crews, boat crews and rescue swimmers to search for the teenager, to no avail. As seas got rougher, two local fire and rescue workers who were searching on their own watercraft fell into the water. One of the helicopter crews hoisted them out. One searcher was taken to Lincoln City for treatment and the other was returned to the beach.

Mitchell said the Tillamook County

Sheriff’s Office will continue the search.

Owens attended elementary and middle school in Marysville and played basketball and soccer at Marysville Pilchuck High School. She left the school in December of 2014, according to school district records.

There is counseling support available at Marysville Pilchuck to anyone who needs it, Marysville School District spokesman Craig Degginger said.

Seattle: Home could be sold An embattled Everett-based real estate developer could lose one of his two Bellevue homes if a court-appointed receiver gets his way. The receiver, Michael Grassmueck, asked U.S. District Judge James Robart for permission Tuesday to sell developer Lobsang Dargey’s $2.5 million house in the upscale suburb’s Bellewood Farms development.

The house, like all assets belonging to Dargey and his myriad businesses, were frozen after the U.S. Security and Exchange Commission sued the Tibetan-born man for allegedly defrauding foreign investors out of tens of millions of dollars.

All of that money was supposed to go to development projects in Everett and Seattle. However, Dargey allegedly used the money to bankroll other developments and for personal use, including to partially pay for the Bellewood Farms house, according to the SEC. Dargey paid $2,473,500 for the Bellevue home in late 2014.

Bid for later school starts A state Senate committee Tuesday discussed a bill proposed by students from Snohomish County that would move the start time for public schools one hour later next year. The Senate Education Committee

also talked about cursive writing and more money for career and technical education supplies. And the committee passed a measure that would give student journalists more editorial freedom. Testimony on the start-time proposal known as the “Sandman Act” included information from the granddaughter of the bill’s co-sponsor, Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe, D-Bothell.

Olivia McAuliffe and two other students from Snohomish High School shared the current research on teen sleep deprivation. They said learning will improve while tardiness and student car accidents will go down if schools start later.

Sen. Bruce Dammeier, R-Puyallup, said he is concerned about taking this decision out of the hands of local school boards. Another student, John Lynch, expressed a willingness to soften the bill. “It wasn’t intended to come off as forceful,” Lynch said.

Super (healthy) Bowl

Game day nosh that won’t supersize your waistline

CHICAGO TRIBUNE

Sizing baked Alaska as individual servings updates the retro dessert. Using purchased pound cake and ice cream means fast assembly.

Baked Alaska made easy

ROSE McAVOY

S

uper Bowl parties can be a buffet of obstacles for those of us watching our calories.

There may be a vegetable tray shoved to the back of the table, but what happens when you get hungry? In my experience, my best intentions get kicked to the sidelines when my stomach is growling and everyone else is digging into bean dip, pizza and piles of chips.

Fortunately, I have a solution.

Have you seen the trays of pinwheel sandwiches in the grocery store deli? Did you know they are really easy to make? Best of all, you can use a variety of fresh ingredients so you won’t fumble your healthy eating goals. It doesn’t matter if you go gourmet or stick to simple sandwich fillings, the pinwheels will look irresistible once they are lined up on a serving tray.

I’m not a die hard fan (as you probably guessed from my terrible use of football puns), but I do enjoy a big game. Sadly, we won’t be watching The Hawks play this year. It sure was fun to watch them play the last two years.

Their absence won’t stop my family from enjoying Super Bowl 50 with the rest of the country.

We’ll tune in to see the Broncos and the Panthers take the field, watch the commercials, and — because I love any excuse to make a meal out of snacks — we will be enjoying a buffet of mostly healthy finger-foods throughout the game.

My youngest was about 2 years old the first time he pointed at the television and yelled “football!” His exclamation didn’t actually sound like “football” but in context it was clear what got him so excited. In many homes, this is a celebrated rite of passage, baby’s-first-moment-in-sports. In our house it was a surprise. Mike and I are not opposed to professional sports (contrary to our reputation among certain family members) but we aren’t regular followers of any particular game — except Formula 1 racing, but that is a subject for another day.

In the months since the first football shout-out, my youngest started specifically reacting to

home-team gear. I wasn’t certain he was identifying the logo on his own until New Years Day. It was a beautiful sunny day. We took advantage of the mild weather and spent the afternoon strolling around Edmonds. At one point, a beanie clad man passed us on the sidewalk. From his perch on Mike’s shoulders, our little fan perked up and pointed. “He’s wearing a Seahawks hat!” (He pronounces the name with an unfortunate “c” instead of an “h.”)

Well, that did it; I was convinced.

We officially have a football fan in the house and he is a Twelve.

Whoever you cheer for, and whatever is on the menu, I hope you enjoy the game, the food,

and the spectacle of Sunday’s Superbowl.

Pinwheel sandwiches These pinwheel wraps are fun to make and easy to customize. Follow the step-by-step instructions for the general method. Then choose ingredients that suit your taste or dietary preferences — such as low carb tortillas, light Laughing Cow cheese, meat or vegetarian fillings.

Use a less-is-more approach to the fillings. Over stuffed pinwheels are hard to roll and frequenly fall apart.

Start with a large tortilla (at least 8-inch diameter).

Cover the tortilla with thin layer of cream cheese or hummus. Work all the way to the edge. The spread holds the pinwheel closed when you roll it. Tip: Up your pinwheel game by sprinkling

a little feta or blue cheese over the spread before layering on the remaining ingredients.

Lay one or two slices of deli meat in the center of the tortilla. Leave a wide margin on either side and keep to one slice thickness.

Place thin slices of vegetables in a column down the center of the tortilla.

Suggested veggies: cucumber sliced long and thin, bell pepper strips, roasted red pepper, tomato slices, green onion and spring greens.

Finally, roll the tortilla so it is snug and the edges stick down. Slice the roll into 2-inch pinwheels (four to six per roll depending on the size of your tortilla) and arrange on plates or trays. Tip: Clustering the pinwheels together on a plate will help keep them rolled.

Pound cake (buy this) Ice cream (buy this) Meringue (make this) Meringue: In the bowl of an electric mixer, briefly whisk 4 egg whites and 1 cup sugar. Set the bowl over a pan of simmering water and whisk until whites reach 165 degrees. Pull pan off the water. Use the whisk attachment of the mixer to whip to billowy, glossy peaks.

Cut: Tip the pound cake on its side and slice into 1⁄2-inch thick planks, starting from the side that was originally the bottom. Use a biscuit cutter to cut eight 3-inch circles from these planks. Line up the circles on a baking sheet.

Freeze: Drop one classic dome-shaped scoop of ice cream on each circle, leaving 1⁄4-inch cake border bare. Freeze 1 hour or, covered with plastic, up to 1 day.

Cover: Smooth meringue all over the ice cream, leaving the cake sides bare. Go ahead and lavish with swirls and spikes — this is the fun of meringue. Feel free to freeze (uncovered) for several hours or move on to the next step.

Bake: Slide the baking sheet into a 500-degree oven just until the meringue turns golden brown, about 3 minutes. (Alternatively, use a kitchen torch.) Enjoy right away.

Prep: 30 minutes. Makes 8 servings.

The biggest religious holidays in America, it has often been noted, are Christmas, Easter and the Super Bowl. Nothing brings us together like Super Bowl Sunday. And as with most religious holidays, food plays an important part of our national celebration. With that in mind, here are some offerings to keep everyone well fed while they watch the game. And the commercials.

These snacks are easy to make and each can be eaten with your fingers, which is perhaps the most important aspect of party food. Most important of all, they go well with beer and football.

Instead of takeout, make your own Super Bowl pizza

By Judyrae Kruse Herald food columnist emeritus

From a column originally published Feb. 1, 2013

I

f you’re still in a dither about food for Super Bowl Sunday, think pizza.

This one’s fresh and homemade by you, and it’s made with a lager-infused crust.

It goes together like this:

Lager-infused pizza crust 1 12-ounce bottle of lager beer warmed up to 120 degrees About 3 1⁄2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting 1 packet quick highly active or bread machine yeast 1 tablespoon fine salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing rising container and oiling cookie sheet or pizza pan.

Sauce: any favorite Toppings: any favorites

Warming the beer properly means yeast will

activate properly. Warm the bottle in a bowl of very warm (not boiling) water or by running it under hot water from the tap.

In a 5-quart or larger bowl, combine flour, yeast, salt and oil.

Add beer to flour mixture, and stir with a fork (not with your hands just yet — it’s too sticky at first) until the dough is lumpy.

Then go in with your hands. The dough will now still be a little sticky, so gradually add flour as you knead to the point

that the finished dough should be just slightly tacky and elastic. To tell when the dough is done, periodically poke it and when the dough gently springs back after you poke it, it is done. Don’t worry if it is not perfectly smooth. You don’t want to overknead it.

Your finished dough, if you have a scale, will weigh right around 2 pounds — 30 to 34 ounces.

Break into 2 equal pieces — use a scale or eyeball it.

Ball each piece up and

place each in a separate airtight container lightly greased with olive oil.

Each container needs to be at least a quart in size to allow for each dough ball to double in size (deli quart containers work great for this).

Set dough aside to rise in a warm location — about 70 to 80 degrees is good. After dough has expanded about double in size — 1 to 2 hours — gently remove from container and stretch to fit on a lightly greased 12- or

14-inch cookie sheet or pizza pan.

Spread dough with your sauce, then cover with your choice of toppings. Bake in a preheated 500-degree oven until the crust and toppings are to your desired doneness, 10 to 15 minutes.

Allow pizza a few minutes to cool. Then cut, serve and enjoy. Makes 2 crusts.

Note: For a thicker crust, stretch to 12 inches.

For a thinner crust, stretch to 14 inches.

A restaurant-quality polenta dish you can make at home

By Amy Scattergood Los Angeles Times

Sometimes, it’s easy to predict the dishes that will achieve cult status on restaurant menus.

They can be flashy, engineered around ingredients that have themselves achieved cult status — marrow bones, foie gras, kale.

Then there are the dishes that come in under the radar, composed of humble ingredients or made with under-appreciated techniques, and operate more like a restaurant’s secret handshake.

This is what the polenta at Union, Bruce Kalman’s restaurant in Pasadena, California, has become for locals.

It is a comforting dish, and here’s how to make it yourself.

Creamy polenta with mushrooms POLENTA 1 pint heavy cream 1 quart milk 1 1⁄2 cups polenta 3 tablespoons butter 1 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (grated using a microplane and loosely packed) Kosher sea salt Freshly ground black pepper In a medium, heavy-bottom saucepan, combine the cream and milk and bring to a simmer.

Slowly whisk in the polenta and reduce the heat to low. Cook, stirring every few minutes or so, making sure to scrape the bottom of the pan so the polenta does not burn. Cook the polenta until it is creamy, about 30 minutes, adding additional milk if the polenta thickens too quickly before it is tender.

Remove from heat, cover and set aside for 20 to 30 minutes.

Whisk in the butter and grated cheese, then taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper.

TOPPING 1/4 cup olive oil 3 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary 1 tablespoon minced fresh sage 1 pound mixed mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, oyster and chanterelles Kosher sea salt Freshly ground black pepper 1 teaspoon thinly sliced garlic Pinch red chile flakes 1 ⁄4 cup dry white wine 1 ⁄4 cup vegetable broth 1 tablespoon sherry vinegar, preferably Pedro Ximenez Prepared polenta in a large saute pan, heat the oil, butter and herbs over medium heat, cooking until the herbs are crisp and the butter begins to brown, 4 to 5 minutes.

Add the mushrooms and season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper, or to taste. Toss, coating the mushrooms with the fat and increase the heat to high, cooking until the mushrooms brown a little, 3 to 4 minutes.

Reduce the heat to medium.

Make a well in the center of the pan and add the garlic and chile flakes. Stir the garlic until it is cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes, then combine it with the mush-

rooms. Add the wine and broth, then remove from heat and add the vinegar. Taste, adjusting the seasonings as desired.

To serve, fill a serving dish

with polenta, then top with the mushrooms.

My Pet Octopus

© 2016 by Vicki Whiting, Editor Jeff Schinkel, Graphics Vol. 32, No. 8

St. Mary Magdalen School

Mrs. Stemerick’s 3rd Grade Class Miss Wisolek Substitute

In 1999, biologist Sonke Johnsen discovered a deep-sea octopus called Stauroteuthis syrtensis that has developed glowing suckers on its tentacles.

This species lives about 2,500 feet down in the Atlantic Ocean. Scientists in a research submarine were able to capture several of these small octopuses which are about the size of a fist.

Mrs. Houghton’s 3rd Grade Class

In the laboratory, away from the sub’s bright lights, they saw the tentacles glow blue-green.

There are more than 150 species of octopus, all with eight tentacles. These soft-bodied invertebrates (animals without a backbone) range in size. One species is no bigger than your thumb, while the Pacific giant octopus grows to be ten or more feet from the tip of one tentacle to another and can weigh up to 50 pounds.

The life of an octopus is one of constant peril. Crabs and small fish like to dine on their eggs and young.

A grown octopus must always watch out for other predators in the sea.

To escape from a predator, an octopus will squirt out a cloud of ink. Thousands of feet down, where the sea is already inky black, they squirt a glow-in-the-dark ink.

If I had a pet octopus I would train it to play splatoon! I would name him Octo.

If I could take Octo for a walk I would put him on a wagon in his tank. My parents would cook fish and squid for him. Last when Octo is asleep, turn of (off) his light. By Matthew If I had a pet octopus I would name him Oli. I would give him a huge fish tank to live in. I would give him treats like squid or shrimp. I would put some colorful rocks in his tank. I would also get scuba diving gear on and swim with him. I think having a pet octopus would be a lot of fun! By Natalie

“It would be as if your hand turned into a light bulb,” Johnsen says.

Why did suckers turn into light bulbs? Adapting to the deep ocean is the most likely cause of the change. Blue-green light travels the farthest through water and is useful for attracting prey and mates.

One day I adopted an octopus from the aquarium and named it Brian. I built wings for Brian, then I trained it to fly high in the skies. In return Brian built me an underwater breathing set. Sometimes Brian and I would visit the three stars in Orion’s belt. We would have a good time. By Nicholas One day I bought (brought) a octopus home. Then I trained him a lot. We both got ice cream at the park. A lot of kids wanted to see it. I went to the swimming pool, he’s a good swimmer.

Then we went to the fair and we had a lot of fun. Finally we went home and had cocoa. By Rylee

Emerson Elementary

Mrs. Moritz’ 3rd Grade Class If I had a Octopus I whod (would) go to the ocean every morning. And I whod have to go to the doctors. And I whod git (get) a qiuck (quick) hug every day.

By Brooklyn Oh hi! I bet you wonderd (wondered) why I have a pet octopus. Yes? Okay! I won’t take (talk) because that’s not real but I will train it. And put it in a tank with water in it. And I will name it Keny. I will say hi everyday. By Ben

The octopus can change color whenever it wishes. Danger causes it to turn pale and excitement causes it to “blush.” Its skin is covered with bumps and warts. To hide, an octopus can not only change its skin color, it can also raise and lower its bumps to make itself warty or smooth.

Look through the newspaper and cut out pictures of feet, heads, arms and bodies. Put the pictures back together in new ways to make silly creatures.

Certain kinds of octopus can become almost transparent and nearly “disappear” from a predator.

How many octopuses can you find hiding here?

What’s Missing?

Find the words in the puzzle, then in this week’s Kid Scoop stories and activities.

The most deadly predator is the moray eel.

It can slip into the same crevice where the octopus hides. Its strong jaws can tear off an octopus’ tentacle!

I would not take my octopus for a walk…who does that… but anyway I will keep it in a big tank filled with water in my house. By Tom K. I have a pet octopus named Octo. Octo is specaily (specially) trained by me. He has a giant tank on wheels that also has no top. He know how to hit targets with ink. He knows how to read, he knows human langage (language), all human langage (language), he knows self defence (defense), and he also knows a lot more stuff. Octo eats food that I invented, it keeps him very healthy. Octo is a great pet. By Max M.

Mr. Guthrie’s 5th Grade Class If I had a pet Octopus I would take him for walks in a wagon. His tank would be under my bed mattrats (mattress), and train him to not crowl (crawl) on it.

GRANDPARENTING | Tom and Dee Hardie with Key Kidder

Helping grandkids deal with puppy love Dear Grandparenting: Kids grow up fast today. My grandchildren are not old enough to do much of anything except keep up their active social life. It is all about who is cool and who is not and who is hanging out together. They can get in these dating like relationships. That is what happened with my grandson, Marc. He is 13. Marc was like any other kid that age. He was kind of goofy and sweet. Then he met Lisa.

I did not meet Lisa. That will not be happening. Lisa must be a small witch. Lisa played games with Marc’s head. Now she is gone.

Marc is miserable. I know how love hurts. I am not big on handing out advice. If I made an exception do you think anything good might come of it?

Elias York, Chicago Dear Elias: You say love, but we say puppy love. Either way, we well remember the intense feelings that accompanied our first romantic impulses. Infatuations can become all consuming, and then sooner or later you’re on Heartbreak Hill.

But we recover, right? There will be others. Most of us careen through a series of romantic entanglements before we’re done.

Yet somehow the first ones stay with us long after they’re gone.

The shock and awe of discovering the joys of the opposite sex is not readily forgotten.

Many families will no doubt dismiss puppy love as inconsequential. But recent research indicates there is a positive payoff when grandparents dispense dating advice to their youthful grandchildren. When older family members make themselves available to talk things over, grandchildren go on to enjoy quality romantic relationships marked by less conflict than families who sit idly by, according developmental psychologist Stephanie Madsen.

The trick, she says, is for adults to be non-judgmental and good listeners, capable of withholding their advice until it’s asked for.

A study published in the journal Child Development that was called “striking” by researchers corroborates the value of adult

advice in helping grandchildren as young as 10 years old to make better romantic decisions. From middle school on, the choice of romantic partners impacts a grandchild’s mental and social health. Clearly, this situation is just one more good reason for grandparents to build and nurture open lines of communication with their grandchildren.

Grand remark of the week “Not Older, Just Better” from Reading, Pennsylvania, was talking to granddaughter, Annie, about the girls in her school.

After Annie had ticked off the names of her friends, “Not Older” asked who was popular.

“That’s easy,” said Annie. “Everyone likes Alex. She makes the best faces. She can even cross her eyes!”

Woman on egg donor list need not volunteer status

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Abby: I recently decided that I wanted to help an infertile couple conceive by becoming an egg donor. I am now part of a registry, and I could be selected for a donation at any time.

Like other young women, I am dating. However, I am conflicted about whether to tell my dates about my involvement with egg donation and if so, how. Can you advise? — Helping Out In Baton Rouge Dear Helping Out: I do not think it would be appropriate to share this information with any man you are seeing casually.

However, if a relationship becomes serious, you should discuss it. A way to start the conversation would be to say, “It’s said that the most meaningful gift a person can give is a gift of self.

Well, I have taken it literally.”

5 Big ray 10 At the home of,

Dear Abby: My 22-yearold daughter, a recent college graduate, is back living at home. She has been bringing her boyfriends home and having sex in her room. I have a real problem with it. There are younger children living here. My husband is not aware of what goes on behind her closed doors at night. How should I handle this? — Still Under My Roof Dear Still: If you prefer not to involve your husband in this, have a private chat with your daughter and tell her you are not comfortable with her entertaining her boyfriends in your home in the manner you have described. Tell her that if she wants to have sex, she should do it elsewhere — but not under your roof with younger children nearby.

Because it’s your home, your rules should apply.

Dear Abby: My girlfriend of two years was offered RIP HAYWIRE

15 16

the opportunity to travel to Nepal for a month-long stay. Leading up to the trip I tried not to be jealous, but I did say some childish things like, “You’re leaving me for a mountain?” However, before she left, I told her I knew it was a great opportunity and that she should enjoy herself.

She emailed me a couple of nights ago about how she and two of her male guides went to a bar together where she got drunk. They plan on going to the club again later during the trip.

I trust my girlfriend, but I can’t help but worry that she may be taken advantage of. I didn’t mention my concerns and even encouraged her to go and have fun. But am I wrong to feel worried? Am I being insecure? — Left At Home In Florida Dear Left At Home: You’re not wrong to feel worried. Under the circumstances, it’s only normal.

Does your girlfriend drink at home? And if she does, how does it affect her? At high altitudes the effects of alcohol can be magnified.

It’s one thing to be openminded and quite another to be so open-minded your brains fall out. Rather than encourage her, you should have warned her to be careful because what she did was risky. As for feeling insecure, at this point you’re entitled to feel that way.

Following the Open House, an online survey will be released for those unable to attend.

Attend the open house to: • View and comment on proposed pedestrian and bicycle routes • View and comment on street designs and pedestrian amenities • Provide comment on implementation policy For additional information contact Patricia Love, Community Development Director (425) 263-8041, or email at plove@ci.mukilteo.wa.us.

We want your feedback!

Jackson Board Room, 8th Floor, Rober t J. Drewel Building M/S 609, 3000 Rockefeller, Everett, Washington to consider the following Ordinance.

ORDINANCE NO. 16-008 RELATED TO THE 2016 BUDGET; MAKING A SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION IN GENERAL FUND 002 TO PROVIDE EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY TO THE SHERIFF’S OFFICE RELATED TO CODE ENFORCEMENT BE IT ORDAINED: Section 1. The County Council makes the following findings of fact: A supplemental appropriation in the General Fund 002 for the budget year 2016, in the amount of $256,972, is necessary to provide expenditure authority to the Sheriff’s Office for the costs associated with providing two FTE enforcement positions to the S o l i d Wa s t e D i v i s i o n o f P u bl i c Wo r k s t o i n c r e a s e c o d e enforcement activity related to the prevention of illegal solid waste hauling and the subsequent loss in County revenue. These FTE’s are funded by revenue received from the Solid Waste Management Fund 402.

Section 2. The unit and allocation detail for the supplemental appropriation described in Section 1 are as follows: EXPENDITURE: 002 General Fund 530 132 1011 Salary $107,813 530 132 1012 Overtime $11,797 530 132 1016 Longevity $12,045 530 132 2013 Benefits $44,852 530 132 2027 Social Security $1,551 530 132 2300 Uniforms $12,349 530 132 3101 Supplies $43,050 530 132 4205 Cellular Phone $1,587 530 132 9503 ER&R $20,428 530 113 4114 Professional Services $1,500 Total Supplemental Appropriation $256,972 REVENUE: 002 General Fund 330 113 3823 Interfund Services-PW $256,972 Total Revenue $256,972 Section 3. The County Council further finds that there is a need for such supplemental appropriation authorized by this ordinance because the funds that support the increased law enforcement activity were unanticipated at the time of adoption of the 2016 budget and have not been previously appropriated.

At said time and place anyone interested may be heard either for or against the above-described matter.

SNOHOMISH COUNTY COUNCIL SNOHOMISH COUNTY, WASHINGTON NOTICE OF INTRODUCTION OF ORDINANCE and NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN, that the Snohomish County Council will hold a public hearing on Wednesday, February 17, 2016 at the hour of 10:30 a.m., in the Henry M. Jackson Board Room, 8th Floor, Rober t J. Drewel Building M/S 609, 3000 Rockefeller, Everett, Washington to consider the following Ordinance.

ORDINANCE NO. 16-007 MAKING AN EMERGENCY APPROPRIATION IN THE SOLID WASTE FUND 402 TO PROVIDE EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY RELATED TO THE ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM BE IT ORDAINED: Section 1. The County Council makes the following findings of fact: An emergency appropriation is necessary in the Solid Waste Fund 402 to aid the Solid Waste Division’s Administration program.

It has been determined there is a need to reestablish two enforcement positions to prevent lost revenue by illegal hauling activity. This decision was made after the 2016 Budget was formally adopted.

Section 2. The appropriation unit and allocation detail are as follows: 402 Solid Waste 5067009101 Administration $256,972 Total Emergency Appropriation $256,972 REVENUE: 402 Solid Waste 3064010800 Fund Balance $256,972 Total Revenue $256,972 Section 3. The County Council finds that there is a need for such emergency appropriation because the decision to reestablish enforcement fte’s, was not made prior to adoption of the 2016 bu d g e t . T h e C o u n t y C o u n c i l f i n d s t h a t t h e n e e d fo r t h e appropriation constitutes a public emergency that could not reasonably have been foreseen at the time of budget approval and appropriation for the year 2016, and hereby authorizes the appropriation.

At said time and place anyone interested may be heard either for or against the above-described matter.

Accommodations for persons with disabilities will be provided upon request. Please make arrangements one week prior to the hearing by calling Randy Reed at (425) 388-3901, 1(800)5624367, or TDD # (425) 388-3700, or e-mail to randy.reed@snoco.org.

By Philip Marcelo Associated Press

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.

— Actors Ali MacGraw and Ryan O’Neal rolled onto the Harvard campus Monday in an antique convertible similar to the one used in “Love Story” and reminisced about the film that made them household names nearly half a century ago.

Both actors said in a discussion with students that the movie, which was partly shot on campus, has special meaning now that they’re in their 70s and in twilight of their careers.

They are co-stars in a national tour of the play “Love Letters,” which has a one-week run in Boston starting Tuesday.

MacGraw said being at Harvard brought back fond memories that few of her subsequent experiences in film ever matched.

“It was a wonderful, wonderful adventure that was followed by some pretty dramatic stuff in my private life,” she said.

MacGraw, who lives in New Mexico, walked away from acting in the years after her breakout role and has written about her struggles with addiction.

O’Neal noted cancer, like in the movie, played a big part in his life. He recently battled leukemia, which he says is now in remission. He also alluded to the

Alana Davitt, a freshman from Virginia, said the film is iconic, even for students of her generation.

She noted that the university’s Crimson Key Society, a student group, hosts a screening of the movie each year as a sort of rite of passage for incoming freshman.

Some students even wore black “Camp Tuckahoe” T-shirts, a reference to the summer camp where MacGraw’s character in “Love Story” worked as a counselor.

The two actors said “Love Letters” also has special meaning for them.

The play is about two people who take very different paths in life but still maintain contact through notes, cards and letters for more than 50 years.

It was a huge box office success that received seven Academy Award nominations and gave pop culture an oft-quoted line: “Love means never having to say you’re sorry.”

Both actors admitted they haven’t seen the movie in years. They also said they had a crush on each other during filming, though both were married at the time.

“Ryan and I clicked immediately,” said MacGraw. “We just had a chemistry.”

“Love Story” also has a special place in Harvard tradition.

On this date: In 1865, President Abraham Lincoln and Confederate Vice President Alexander H. Stephens held a shipboard peace conference off the Virginia coast; the talks deadlocked over the issue of Southern autonomy.

In 1913, the 16th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, providing for a federal income tax, was ratified.

In 1924, the 28th president of the United States, Woodrow Wilson, died in Washington, D.C., at age 67.

In 1930, the chief justice of the United States, William Howard Taft, resigned for health reasons. (He died just over a month later.)

Freshman Green earns more playing time for UW The guard’s minutes have steadily increased as his defense and confidence have improved during Pac-12 play.

By Christian Caple The News Tribune

17 points in the third quarter and six in the final period.

The two free throws by Gotell late in the contest gave Cascade its first lead since early in the second quarter.

“Oh my gosh, he’s huge,” Cascade head coach Darrell McNeal said of Gotell. “It’s hard to guard him. He can find a way to get to the rim, he’s long, he’s quick.

When he’s really commanding the ball he’s going to finish and do some things for us. “... Credit to him because he definitely wanted the ball down

SEATTLE — Dominic Green sat on the bench, waiting his turn, wondering what he needed to do differently to become a part of the Washington Huskies’ regular rotation.

The freshman from Renton barely played during the nonconference season, registering double-digit minutes just twice, in a pair of blowouts. He played four minutes in a double-overtime game against UCLA, four minutes two days later against USC, and one minute in an overtime game at Washington State.

Given how frequently the Huskies were in foul trouble in those games, it didn’t seem an encouraging sign for Green that he still wasn’t able to get on the floor.

It was during that early portion of the season that Green, Hazen High School’s all-time leading scorer, met with UW coach Lorenzo Romar to ask what he should work on.

“It was just finding things that I can do to improve,” Green said after Tuesday’s practice, a day ahead of UW’s 8 p.m. Wednesday home game against Arizona State. “Defense was one of the things he told me I needed to try

Gotell’s clutch free throws lift Cascade over Jackson 46-45

By David Krueger Herald Writer

EVERETT — Isaiah Gotell said he’s struggled making free throws this season.

Tuesday night that was not the case.

Gotell was 10 of 11 from the free-throw line, including two with 7.4 seconds remaining in the game, to lead Cascade to a 46-45 come-from-behind win over Jackson in a Wesco 4A game at Cascade High School.

The win clinches at least a share of the league title for the Bruins, who can clinch it

outright with a win in one of their final two games against Mariner or Kamiak.

“It’s probably one of the most stressful times,” Gotell said of the two late free throws. “You step up and you’ve got both crowds yelling and cheering and it can go either way. I’ve been struggling this year with free throws so I was just happy I could make both for the team. It’s a scary time.

“I’m just happy I made the shots. It all worked out.”

Gotell finished with a gamehigh 26 points for Cascade. The senior led the Bruins’ secondhalf charge with 14 of Cascade’s

Broncos’ Phillips is cut from same cloth as his dad

By Eddie Pells Associated Press

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — A few weeks ago, Broncos defensive coordinator Wade Phillips went to great pains to describe glowingly a certain coach with the initials “B.B.” — a coach he would go on to out-scheme and beat a few days later to punch his ticket to the Super Bowl.

“I’ve said it before,” Phillips said. “He’s a great coach because he can take his guys and beat yours, but he can also take your guys and beat his.”

If that sounded familiar, it was a de-Texas-ized version of his dad Bum’s old homage to Don Shula: “He can take his’n and beat your’n, and take your’n and beat his’n.”

Though Wade may be missing the 10-gallon hat and the cowboy boots, the coach with the Twitter

No magic to it, he insists, as he gets ready for the season’s biggest challenge — stopping Cam Newton and the Panthers. Essentially,

Phillips says, the key to coaching — the key to life, really — is to keep things simple. And stay aggressive. And never forget, first and foremost, this is a game about connecting with people.

“My dad was my hero, not just my dad,” Phillips said. “Everything I learned about football and about people, and about how to work with people, is from him.”

The testimonials from his current players are consistent.

“He’s hilarious. He’ll dance and goof around,” defensive lineman Derek Wolfe said. “But then when it’s time for business, it’s time for business. We take on that personality as a team.”

It’s possible that the close, personal connections he builds with players is the sort of thing that make a guy a great assistant but not so great as the head coach.

HOUSTON — The NBA suspended Rockets center Dwight Howard for Tuesday night’s game against Miami for touching an official during a loss over the weekend.

The league said the onegame suspension without pay was for “striking the arm of a game official” late in Saturday’s 123-122 home loss to Washington. Houston coach J.B. Bickerstaff was also fined $10,000 for public criticism of the officiating after the game.

Howard was ejected after getting his second technical of the night with 8:08 left in the fourth after pushing Nene while the two tangled under the basket.

Nene was also ejected for a double technical foul on the play.

Howard was whistled for his first technical after putting his hands on the back of Chris Dudley’s neck following Dudley’s flagrant foul in what appeared to be a joking

Herald news services SEATTLE — The Seattle Storm have re-signed veteran forwards Alysha Clark and Jenna O’Hea. The WNBA team announced the signings Tuesday.

“Bringing back Alysha and Jenna was one of our top priorities,” Storm President and General Manager Alisha Valavanis said. “They have a strong connection with our fans, are both role models in the community and will continue to be important leaders on the team.”

Clark, 5-foot-10, was inserted into the starting lineup just two

“These referees need to be held accountable for letting people attack Dwight and be that physical with him,” Bickerstaff said afterward. “And dirty. It’s not physical. If they

let Dwight be physical and the game be clean, that’s one thing. But, they’re not clean with the way they play. We don’t mind being physical.

We’re not afraid of that, but cheap is one thing. Playing to grab somebody’s shoulders.

Grab somebody’s arms. That’s not clean basketball.”

Just 7

games into the 2015 regular season and averaged 6.9 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game.

“Alysha has become one of the most efficient and versatile players in the league, mastering the things that do not show up in stat sheets but lead to team success,” Storm head coach Jenny Boucek said. “Her work ethic, toughness, team-first mentality and basketball IQ make her a strong leader and role model for our franchise.”

The 6-1 O’Hea appeared in all 34 of Seattle’s regular-season games in 2015, starting 14. She posted averages of 5.9

points per game and 2.4 assists per game, both career-highs, and averaged 1.9 rebounds per game. The five-year WNBA veteran spent three seasons with Los Angeles (2011-13) before being traded to Seattle prior to the 2014 campaign in exchange for a 2015 second-round draft selection.

“Jenna brings an elite work ethic, toughness and professionalism along with second-to-none humility and loyalty,” Boucek said. “She has expanded her game into a legitimate play-making threat on the wing and we are thrilled to have her back in Seattle.”

The development of Washington’s Dominic Green has helped the Huskies lengthen their lineup this season.

percent) during Pac-12 play. And, at 6-foot-6 with long, skinny arms, he’s become reliable enough within UW’s defensive scheme to be trusted with more minutes.

“He’s such a good scorer with a scorer’s mindset that a lot of times, he would go and begin to hunt his shot, and maybe the ball would stop at times,” Romar said. “Now, he is understanding a lot more of the team concept.

And he wasn’t doing it because he was selfish. He’s just been successful doing it. And again, he’s a scorer. In his mind, he was going to show why he belonged

on the floor.

“Well, while that was going on, he still wasn’t where he needed to be defensively. We are aware he was a scorer. We knew we recruited him to score. But once he began to take his time a little more offensively and began to defend and do some things that way, then he naturally got his opportunity.”

His attitude helped, too.

“He is determined to do things the right way,” Romar said. “He comes out every day in practice, and you can see he’s really trying to learn. He’s really trying to

focus and pick things up. That’s one of the reasons he was rewarded with playing time.”

Green said playing against ASU (12-10, 2-7) revives no special feelings, only that “it’s just another game that we’ve got to win.” He liked ASU and was set to play for the Sun Devils before the school fired Sendek and hired Bobby Hurley, with whom Green met once before deciding he’d be better off elsewhere.

UW began its recruitment of Green late, Romar said — in July 2014, when Green was starting to turn some heads on the AAU circuit — so the Huskies didn’t have much of a chance when Green originally decided on ASU. But UW quickly became the frontrunner after he was released from his letter of intent, and the Huskies officially signed him in late April.

“It was just close to home,” Green said, “and I knew a lot of the players.”

Green’s ability to score, UW senior guard Andrew Andrews said, has always been apparent in practice. But Andrews said he can tell Green has become sharper mentally, and because of it, the Huskies have a deeper, more versatile rotation.

“It gives us that small lineup that we’ve kind of been accustomed to playing throughout the year,” Andrews said. “Whenever he’s in the game, we go four out and we have shooters on both sides and it makes my job a whole lot easier getting into the paint, (because) I can find him. It makes the defense’s job a whole lot harder trying to figure out who to cover when they’re guarding us. And then defensively, since we switch everything, it puts another guy on the perimeter who can guard any guard (and) have backside help. We just have a lot more speed when he’s out there.”

STANFORD, Calif. — Erica McCall had her 12th doubledouble of the season, and Karlie Samuelson hit three 3-pointers and finished with 15 points to help the No. 15 Stanford women beat Cal 53-46 Tuesday night for its ninth-straight home victory.

McCall had 11 points and 13 rebounds.

Lili Thompson added 11 points and Kaylee Johnson grabbed 15 rebounds for Stanford (18-5, 8-3 Pac-12).

A pair of free throws by Kristine Anigwe pulled Cal (11-11, 2-9) within one, 37-36, with 8:23 to play, but Thompson made back-to-back layups during a 15-4 run that gave Stanford a 12-point lead — the largest by either team — with 36 seconds left.

The Golden Bears opened up a 15-7 lead with 49 seconds left in the first quarter, but made just 10 of 41 (24.4 percent) field-goal attempts thereon.

Anigwe scored 17 and Courtney Range added 15 points for Cal.

the stretch and he was going to make something happen. And he did.”

Despite coming into the game undefeated and ranked No. 3 in the latest Associated Press 4A poll, McNeal said Cascade (12-0 league, 18-0 overall) considered itself the underdog against perennial league champion and Everett School District rival Jackson (9-3, 12-6).

“I don’t care what our record is, (Jackson head coach) Steve Johnson does an amazing job with his crew over there. They come out and play and they fight hard,” McNeal said. “We’re the underdogs.

I truly believe and say that because we haven’t been there year in and year out like they have.”

offenses struggled in the first half, Jackson ended the second quarter with a 7-0 run to take an 18-13 lead into halftime.

Cascade and Jackson found more success offensively in the third quarter, with Jackson again jumping out to a lead with a 7-0 run after the Bruins initially closed the gap.

“They came out in the closing seconds of the first half and they kind of punched us,” Gotell said.

“For us to come back in the third quarter and give them a little fight — a little run for their money.”

Two big 3-pointers from Trevon Blackmon and Cameron McGrath — who finished with nine points — got the Bruins to within three points, and a drive and basket by Cascade captain Brennen Hancock cut the Jackson lead to one and set up Gotell’s gamewinning opportunity.

Let’s make some adjustments — we’ll put Isaiah in the post — let’s move the ball a little bit more, see if we can get a couple mismatches and go from there.’

“We came back and did a better job of executing and moving the ball and getting the right guys the ball. We cleaned it up in the second half.”

Jackson lost more than just the game Tuesday night.

Timberwolves senior post Colton Faddis, who had eight points and seven rebounds, fell to the floor after battling for a rebound with 2:46 remaining in the game. Faddis had to be helped off the floor and was seen with the trainers

The Seattle Sounders and Vancouver Whitecaps have enough early training-camp issues that they’ve decided to extend their season-opening friendly to 135 minutes.

The clubs have agreed to play three 45-minute periods in their first Desert Friendly, scheduled for 4 p.m. Wednesday in Tucson, Arizona. The match will be streamed live at SoundersFC.com.

The extra time should allow more work for a Sounders roster that has grown to 40 players. That includes Panamanian central defender Roberto Chen, who joined the camp Monday but remains unsigned.

“We’re happy to have Roberto here,” coach Sigi Schmid said on the club website. “He’s a player that we’ve had our eye on for a while. … We’ll see how he does this week and then make a decision.”

Chen, 21, made his debut with the Panama senior national team in

Johnson didn’t want to speculate on his senior’s injury, but was hopeful he could return sometime in the postseason.

“We probably would have gone right back to him,” Johnson said of Faddis, who had back-to-back baskets in the fourth quarter. “That’s life. I don’t expect anyone to feel sorry for us. We’ve just got to move on. Hopefully, he’s able to come back soon.”

The Jackson head coach was pleased with his team’s effort and resolve in competing with undefeated Cascade until the end.

“Our kids really competed and battled. We proved we could play with the best team in the league and hopefully that bodes well for the playoffs,” Johnson said. “A play here, play there — if a couple things go our way — we have a win.”

Other central defenders in camp include incumbent starter Chad Marshall and recently re-signed veteran Zach Scott. Projected starter Roman Torres, also of Panama, is expended to return from a knee injury around midseason.

An unexpected addition to the Arizona roster is central defender Brad Evans who on Monday was returned from the United States national team after suffering tightness in his hamstring after the 3-2 win over Iceland on Sunday.

Recently signed homegrown forward Jordan Morris will remain with the national team in California through its Friday friendly with Canada.

Seattle’s Desert Friendlies continue with a 6 p.m.

Saturday match against the Portland Timbers and conclude at 6 p.m. Feb. 9 against Mexican side Celaya FC.

Associated Press CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Three-time NASCAR champion Tony Stewart was hospitalized Tuesday with a back injury and Stewart-Haas Racing said the team was unsure of the extent of his injuries just a week before he is expected in Daytona to prepare for his final season in Sprint Cup. The 44-year-old Stewart was injured Sunday during an accident while he was riding an all-terrain vehicle somewhere on the West Coast, SHR spokesman Mike Arning told The Associated Press.

He was being evaluated at an undisclosed hospital and was able to move all extremities.

Arning indicated Stewart’s condition will not be updated again until Thursday. Stewart was in Arizona on Saturday night at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale and was interviewed on live television from the event.

Stewart is retiring at the end of this NASCAR season, and he was due to report next week to

Daytona International Speedway to begin preparing for the Feb. 21 Daytona 500.

“We have received word from StewartHaas Racing of Tony Stewart’s accident and injury,” NASCAR chairman Brian France said in a statement. “On behalf of everyone at NASCAR, I wish Tony a full recovery and look forward to seeing him back in our sport when he’s ready to return.”

Stewart turns 45 in May and missed a third of the 2013 season with a broken leg he sustained in a sprint car accident. A year later, his car struck and killed a fellow driver at a dirt track in New York.

Stewart was cleared of any criminal wrongdoing, but faces a civil suit from the family of Kevin Ward Jr. Stewart spoke last month of his excitement over his upcoming final season, and said he’d likely return to racing in nonNASCAR events upon his retirement. He has not competed in anything out of a Sprint Cup race since Ward’s death in 2014.

ESPN reporter Rowe undergoing surgery to remove tumor in chest Associated Press BRISTOL, Conn. — ESPN reporter Holly Rowe says she is undergoing surgery to remove a tumor.

Rowe had surgery in May to remove a tumor in her chest, and she said in a statement released by the network Tuesday that a new tumor had recently been found.

Rowe said she is having surgery Tuesday and “in the coming days, I will

know more about what potential additional steps I may take to address this situation.”

She thanked colleague Shelley Smith for her guidance after Smith went through her own cancer treatments. Rowe adds: “I hope to be back at work soon doing what gives me so much joy in life.”

Rowe joined ESPN on a regular basis in 1998 and primarily covers college football, college basketball and softball.

Browns tired of Manziel’s antics, hint to release coming in March Associated Press CLEVELAND — The Browns are about to throw Johnny Football away.

The team issued a strong statement Tuesday, condemning quarterback Johnny Manziel’s actions and pointing to his release in March, a move that has seemed inevitable for months.

The conduct by the 23-year-old player — rampant partying, two domestic incidents and a general lack of commitment — have been a major problem almost from the day Cleveland drafted the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner in the first round two years ago.

Last weekend, Manziel was involved in a disturbance with his exgirlfriend in Dallas that is being investigated by police and the NFL. “We’ve been clear about expectations for our players on and off the field,” said Sashi Brown, the team’s vice president of football operations.

“Johnny’s continual involvement in incidents that run counter to those expectations undermines the hard work of his teammates and the reputation of our organization. His status with our team will be addressed when permitted by league rules.”

The Browns, who drafted Manziel with the No. 22 overall pick in the 2014 draft, can release him as early as Monday, the day after the Super Bowl.

But salary-cap implications point to the move happening March 9, when the league’s new year begins.

DAVID RICHARD / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Browns quarterback Johnny Manziel walks off the field at halftime of a game against the Bengals on Dec. 6.

The expected end to his run in Cleveland will conclude two turbulent seasons for the electrifying college star known as Johnny Football, whose arrival with the Browns prompted enthusiasm and a belief by some fans that he could bring the Browns back to respectability.

Instead of excitement, however, Manziel mostly delivered disappointment.

He spent most of his rookie season behind Brian Hoyer before getting his first career start late in the season against Cincinnati. Manziel played poorly in a 30-0 loss to the Bengals and the following week he injured his hamstring. Manziel was then fined when he didn’t show for the final walk-through practice before the finale at Baltimore.

Manziel said he regretted not working harder in his first season and vowed to change. That admission was followed by him checking into a drug and

alcohol treatment center in Pennsylvania, where he spent 73 days.

Manziel returned for his second season eager to show he had learned his lessons. The Browns raved about his work ethic and it appeared he had turned the corner.

But once again, Manziel couldn’t stay out of trouble.

In October, Manziel was questioned by police in Avon, Ohio, after a witness reported a roadside confrontation. Manziel and then-girlfriend, Coleen Crowley acknowledged drinking alcohol before their argument. Crowley told police Manziel struck her and pushed her head into the car window.

Manziel was not arrested and he was later cleared of wrongdoing by the NFL, which investigated whether he had violated its personal-conduct policy.

Not long after, Manziel was stripped of his starting

job by former coach Mike Pettine after the quarterback had promised he would not be a distraction during the team’s bye week. Manziel’s appearances on social media videos also bothered the Browns, who were caught between being supportive of him while also appearing to be letting him off easy.

Manziel got his job back after Josh McCown broke his collarbone, but he was ruled out of the season finale with a concussion. Manziel then failed to report to a scheduled medical treatment on Jan. 3 at the team’s training facility while his teammates played Pittsburgh. The Browns were not certain of Manziel’s location that day as a report surfaced he was in Las Vegas.

On Saturday, police were called to an apartment complex where a woman identified as Manziel’s ex-girlfriend said she had been in a disturbance with Manziel, who was not at the scene. The woman said she was concerned about Manziel’s wellbeing. That prompted police to use a helicopter to find Manziel, who was deemed “safe and in no danger.”

Police in Fort Worth and Dallas are still trying to determine if Manziel assaulted his ex-girlfriend.

Before this latest matter, Browns owner Jimmy Haslam said last week he believed the team’s strained relationship with him could still be fixed.

But in light of yet another embarrassing episode, it appears the Browns will move on without him.

Dodgers hire Maddux, Ibanez as special assistants Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The Dodgers have hired Hall of Fame pitcher Greg Maddux and 19-year veteran Raul Ibanez as special assistants to Andrew Friedman in the team’s front office.

The team said Tuesday that Maddux and Ibanez will help Friedman, who is president of baseball operations, while also working in scouting, player development and

Silvertips From Page C1

“We don’t take a lot of penalties, but we’re hard to play against,” Everett forward Spencer Gerth said. “When you combine those two things I think it’s a big (reason) for our success and teams start to get frustrated when there’s not a lot happening against us offensively. When we’re blocking shots, when we’re hitting, they don’t have a lot of time and space to do stuff.”

To head coach Kevin Constantine, playing with discipline takes both mental acuity and positioning on the ice.

“You have to really be in control of your emotions to be disciplined,” Constantine said. “If you’ve got position on your guy you’re going to take (fewer) penalties than if you lose position and have to reach out and hold a guy, or grab his arm or something like that. One key to being disciplined is your mind, and one key to discipline is positioning on the ice.”

The Silvertips have just 425 penalty minutes in 49 games this season. That is

interacting with players at the major and minor league levels.

Maddux spent the last four years as special assistant to Texas general manager Jon Daniels in the Rangers’ organization, where his brother Mike was the pitching coach. Before that, he was an assistant to Cubs GM Jim Hendry in 2010. The 49-year-old, four-time NL Cy Young Award winner pitched for the Dodgers in 2006 and 2008.

WASHINGTON — Infielder Brendan Ryan agreed to a minor-league contact with the Washington Nationals and will report to big league spring training.

Ryan was with the New York Yankees from September 2013 through last season and previously played for the Seattle Mariners and St. Louis Cardinals during his nineyear big league career. Ryan was traded by the Yankees

nearly 100 fewer than the 519 put up by Kamloops, the second least-penalized team in the league. Everett averages a paltry 8.7 minutes per game while only the Blazers (10.6) and Swift Current (10.8) average fewer than 11.

It’s a matter of practicality for Constantine.

Teams average about 80 percent on the penalty kill, so “every fifth penalty is a goal,” he said.

For the Silvertips, who are 18th in penalty killing at 77.1 percent, the metric becomes all the more important.

“Positioning around the ice gives you a chance to win, and then you don’t have to do quite as much as far as the skill side to win,” Constantine said.

“We’re trying to combine all those things, but part of our culture and foundation is (to) not beat ourselves, and bad penalties would be beating yourself.”

Yet hockey is a physical sport that allows plenty of contact. Players need to remain aggressive without being so aggressive that it leads to penalties. “(You have to) find the peak of your performance and play that,” Gerth said. “(You have) to find that

peak that you’re so into it that nothing else matters.

That’s kind of where you have to play, but you can’t go over the top, meaning you don’t take bad penalties and stuff like that.”

The Silvertips don’t boast a lot of size, but those who do possess it — among them forwards Gerth, Brandon Ralph and Dawson Leedahl, and defensemen Noah Juulsen, Brycen Martin and Tristen Pfeifer — use it to their advantage physically.

“We’ve been in the box a lot lately and I think we need to cut that out of our game in order to win,” Juulsen said. “You gotta play physical, but you have to play disciplined. You have to take the hits when they’re there, but you can’t do anything stupid to get a penalty.”

Taking penalties has had consequences at times this year. The Tips were assessed a half-dozen in a home game against Portland on Dec. 9, and allowed four power-play goals as a 5-2 third-period lead morphed into a 7-5 loss to the Winterhawks.

Then there was the Dec. 4 home game against Prince George during which the Tips were

to the Chicago Cubs in December, then was released by Chicago.

The 33-year-old is a career .234 hitter with 203 RBI in 879 games. Ryan is a strong defender with considerable experience at second base, third base and shortstop.

goaded into four fights and nine penalties as the Cougars prevailed 3-0.

And the fallout from Saturday’s game is still to be determined. Everett leading scorer Remi Laurencelle was given a two-minute roughing penalty, a five-minute major penalty and a 10-minute game misconduct penalty for his third-period hit on Seattle’s Jerret Smith.

Laurencelle was suspended for Sunday’s game against Portland and the league is evidently waiting for Smith’s prognosis before announcing the length of Laurencelle’s suspension.

The fact that Laurencelle’s absence is so acutely felt underscores how rare it is for a Tips player to be suspended.

The overager is the first Everett player suspended this season.

The Silvertips (29-16-22, 62 points) are back in action Wednesday, without Laurencelle, against Portland (25-23-3-0, 53 points) for the first time since that 7-5 loss nearly two months ago. The puck drops at 7 p.m. at Xfinity Arena.

SUPER BOWL | Notebook

There’s no emulating Newton

From Page C1

Assocaited Press SAN FRANCISCO — Denver has pretty tall backup quarterbacks in Brock Osweiler at 6-foot-8 and Trevor Siemian at 6-3. So they can replicate the challenges that 6-5 Cam Newton presents as the Broncos prepare to play the Carolina Panthers in the Super Bowl on Sunday, right?

Not quite.

“Of course everyone knows about speed, him being fast, strong and tall and all that stuff,” said Broncos linebacker Von Miller, like Newton an All-Pro this season. “His ability to make others play to a level that they would not normally play at is what I think is his greatest attribute.”

Newton’s ability to run, whether powerfully or swiftly, is not something Osweiler nor Siemian truly can emulate in practice. So, Miller said, the Broncos have tried another approach.

“You can’t simulate that speed,” Miller said. “You can the size somewhat, but that’s all. So we figured maybe put a running back back there. Stick anybody who has speed.”

Miller said the coaches have used several running backs and even cornerback Taurean Nixon, all with one thing in mind.

“Speed, speed, speed,” Miller said. “It happens so fast with Cam.”

Level playing field No Super Bowl hitches so far for NFL field director Ed Mangan at Levi’s Stadium.

The turf is ready, the end zones are painted and the grass is being cut daily to three-quarters of an inch.

“Weather like this is outstanding,” said Mangan, also the Atlanta Braves’ field director and working his 27th Super Bowl. “There’s been no real hitches.”

He was referring to the sunny skies Tuesday in Santa Clara, crossing his fingers the weather holds as expected.

The field was covered with a lighter tarp overnight Sunday into Monday in case of frost.

Also Tuesday, the company View — a leader in dynamic glass — announced that its smart windows have been installed at Levi’s Stadium to enhance the fan experience. View Dynamic Glass said that it “maximizes natural light and provides unobstructed views while reducing heat and glare.” There had been issues since the opening of the $1.3 billion stadium in 2014 of fans on one side becoming too hot under the glare of the sun.

Byron White Award Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis is one of the finalists for the NFL Players Association’s Byron “Whizzer” White Award.

The award annually recognizes players who go above and beyond to perform community service in their team cities and hometowns.

Giants running back Rashad Jennings, Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch, Saints tight end Benjamin Watson and Titans tight end Delanie Walker are the other finalists.

The winner, who will receive $100,000 for his foundation or a charity of his choice, will be announced on Feb. 4 at the NFLPA’s annual Super Bowl news conference.

Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning won the award in 2005 and Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway won it last year.

The award is named after former NFL running back and Supreme Court Justice Byron Raymond “Whizzer” White.

No language barrier Excitement transcends all languages, and Panthers quarterback Newton had a good quip when asked Tuesday about the popularity of the team’s Spanish language radio broadcasters.

“Well I’m trilingual myself,” Newton said. “I am. I know how to speak Spanish, English obviously, and I speak pretty good Ebonics.”

Newton said the Panthers hear lots of the play-by-play from the team’s Spanish-language broadcasters along with highlight videos before upcoming games. He said it’s kind of weird to hear their calls with the Panthers not really sure what the broadcasters are saying. So they often ask coach Ron Rivera to help translate.

“I know they’re screaming and their tone, and I think that’s the great thing about language as a whole,” Newton said. “You don’t necessarily have to know what they’re talking about to hear their tone and notice that they’re excited about whatever they’re saying.”

BOB LEVERONE / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly (59) moves in to tackle Packers running back James Starks (44) during the second half of a game Nov. 8 in Charlotte, N.C.

The ‘Animal’

Carolina’s nice guy LB Kuechly has ‘alter ego’

By Steve Reed Associated Press

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Luke Kuechly strolls happily through the Carolina Panthers locker room smiling and addressing teammates as he passes.

He stops at defensive tackle Dwan Edwards’ locker first and shares a laugh before moving up the carpeted, rectangular room and sitting with a group of running backs to chat.

He talks. He laughs. He leaves people in a better mood as he departs.

The Panthers seem to agree that Kuechly is, as safety Roman Harper describes him, “the nicest guy I’ve ever met in the world.”

“Definitely,” adds Edwards.

But they also know about Kuechly’s “other side” — the moment when the All-Pro linebacker steps on the football field, things change quickly.

“He has this alter ego he manages to control. In the locker room he’s so jolly, like, ‘Hi Cameron,”’ said quarterback Cam Newton, raising the pitch in his voice at the end to simulate Kuechly’s cheery voice.

“And then on the field he’s like ‘Arrrrgh!”’ Newton said, his voice turning more intense.

The QB shakes his head, “It’s crazy.”

“On the field he turns into something else — like Captain America saving everybody and everything,” cornerback Josh Norman said. “He has a switch.

Some players got it and some

players don’t — he definitely has one.”

Whatever switch Kuechly has, it certainly works.

He has more tackles than any player in the league since being selected by the Panthers in the first round out of Boston College in 2012. He has more interceptions (11) than any linebacker during that span and was named NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2013.

The Panthers are 44-24-1 since his arrival and will play in the Super Bowl on Sunday against the Denver Broncos.

Coach Ron Rivera said he sometimes has to remind himself that Kuechly is only 24.

“What more could you ask for than a guy to come in and take the league by storm?” tight end Greg Olsen said. “There is that expectation of what more can he do year-in and year-out?

He seems to top himself. He’s a special player.”

“He’s my favorite football player ever,” said running back Jonathan Stewart.

The humble Kuechly gets bashful, almost embarrassed, talking about himself — particularly when it comes to his fiery demeanor on the field.

The 6-foot-3, 240-pound Kuechly says he lives by the simple motto of treating other people the way you want to be treated, but acknowledges that kind of goes out the window on game day.

“You can be one guy off the field, but when you get on the field the competitive aspect of

who you are takes over,” Kuechly said. “It doesn’t matter who it is, everyone wants to compete, everyone wants to win and you have to do your best because if you let up for one second something bad will happen to you.”

Broncos tight end Owen Daniels calls Kuechly “an animal” on the football field.

“He’s sideline-to-sideline, flying around, passing guys, his own teammates, to make tackles,” Daniels said. “You see all that stuff on film and it’s really impressive.”

Then he laughs and says, “Good to know he’s a nice guy off the field.”

Kuechly has 19 tackles, three pass breakups and two interception returns for touchdowns already this postseason.

Newton never misses a chance to playfully poke a little fun at Kuechly’s humble, nice-guy persona. He was the one that dubbed the seemingly too-good-to-be-true Kuechly “Captain America,” in part, to pick on him.

But when the teasing ends, he wants Kuechly on his team.

“Being around Luke makes me better,” Newton said. “I haven’t been around a lot of people that I can say their preparation, their play, their skillset brings the best out of me. When I see Luke and the work that he puts in from working out to preparing in the classroom and for it to come out on the field, it makes a person like me want to be better.”

Eugene Robinson to Panthers: Don’t do what I did at Super Bowl

By Steve Reed Associated Press

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Before the Carolina Panthers went to California for the Super Bowl, team broadcaster Eugene Robinson had a message for the players: Don’t mess up like I did.

Robinson was a Falcons safety in 1999 when he was arrested the night before the Super Bowl for solicitation of a prostitute, while his wife and children were in a nearby hotel.

Robinson played in the Super Bowl the following day, but gave up an 80-yard touchdown pass and missed a tackle on a long run as Atlanta lost 34-19 to the Denver Broncos.

“It was just to tell these guys, don’t mess this up,” Robinson said Tuesday. “... I can be a living example — don’t mess this up.”

Panthers coach Ron Rivera said the speech seemed to resonate with players, who gave Robinson a standing ovation.

“I think it is one of the bravest things I have ever seen a guy

I can be a living example — don’t mess this up.

— Eugene Robinson Panthers broadcaster

do,” Rivera said. “... For him to step up and relive that, to tell the guys he was wrong and (forgot) the reason he was there, that is a huge message. And I think that’s a great message.”

Robinson, who played 11 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks from 1985-95, remains married to his wife of 30 years. She has forgiven him for the mistake, but Robinson said it is something he will have to live with the rest of his life.

Robinson, who had won the Bart Starr Award for high moral character just days before the arrest in Miami, said to hear the word “solicitation” is still

extremely painful to him.

“It was painful. I cried the entire night,” Robinson said of the night before the Super Bowl. “I was like, ‘How did I get so far over here when I was way over there? It’s easy to lose your way when you’re selfish and you’re only thinking about yourself. That’s what I did.”

Tight end Ed Dickson said Robinson chose the right time to talk to players.

“My heart goes out to him and everything he had to deal with then, but if you can reach one player and they don’t make the same mistake that you make, that is critical,” Dickson said. “I applaud him for doing it and I thought it was courageous for him to tell that story and to open up that wound again.”

Robinson said he spoke to Rivera about approaching the players, and the coach agreed.

“I want my guys to know that you have a great opportunity and seize the moment — and don’t be like me,” Robinson said.

Phillips has been fired from both positions more times than he can count.

Over the decades, he has been shoehorned into this classification: great defensive coordinator, but someone who cannot hold down the top job.

This season’s Broncos are No. 1 in yards allowed, passing yards allowed and sacks. But Phillips’ head-coaching record is 82-61, and he has a grand total of one playoff win. Of his three head-coaching stints, in Denver, Buffalo and Dallas, none lasted longer than four seasons.

He’s learned to live with that, and it eventually led him to what is, officially, his third job with the Broncos.

He was defensive coordinator from 1989-92, when Dan Reeves was winding down a stint that included three Super Bowls.

Then Phillips became head coach when Reeves got fired. Then, six jobs later (eight if you count two of his stints as interim head coach), he returned at age 68 to become the defensive coordinator again, this time working for John Elway and Gary Kubiak.

“He said, ‘My goal is to be the greatest defensive coordinator in the history of the NFL,” Elway said. “I liked that statement.”

Phillips says he learned the most in Houston, where he teamed up with his dad in the late ‘70s to form one of the best teams in football. But the Oilers had the bad luck of being good when Pittsburgh was putting the finishing touches on a dynasty.

They lost two straight years to the Steelers in the AFC title game.

After the second one, came what might have been Bum’s finest moment.

“One year ago, we knocked on the door. This year, we beat on the door. Next year, we’re gonna kick the son of a (expletive) in,” he said during a rally in front of 70,000plus ‘Luv Ya Blue’-singing fans at the Astrodome.

But the next year, the Oilers lost in the wild-card round to the Raiders, who also went on to win the Super Bowl. By New Year’s Eve of 1980, both Wade and his daddy were out of jobs.

“That’s when I realized that you’ve just got to coach as hard as you can, do the best you can,” Wade Phillips said. “Someone will recognize it if they want.”

They’re recognizing it now.

The plan Phillips concocted against Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and the Patriots two weeks ago is being widely hailed as a stroke of genius. Mr. Aggressive threw off the Pats by often rushing only three players, lining up defensive linemen and linebackers in awkward spots and keeping Brady off-balance. The Broncos hit Brady 23 times, one short of double the most he had been hit all year.

Asked if that was his best game plan ever, Phillips demurred. He recalled other great plans that worked but came up short.

“Just winning is the big thing,” he said.

If he can hatch something to stop Newton, Phillips will win his first Super Bowl ring. That missing piece would draw him one step closer to the career goal he articulated to Elway: best defensive coordinator in history.

Won’t be easy.

“It’s different with every quarterback,” Phillips said of the challenge of stopping Newton.

“But he is different than any quarterback.”

The old man couldn’t have said it any better.
