Ex- Reardon aide sentenced 24 pot By Noah Haglund and Scott North Herald Writers

ARLINGTON — A onetime aide to Aaron Reardon, the former Snohomish County

executive, will pay a $1,500 fine and serve five days on a Skagit County work crew for tampering with evidence during a criminal investigation. Kevin Hulten received that sentence Monday after pleading

guilty to the gross misdemeanor. If Hulten for some reason can’t serve on the work crew, Cascade District Court Judge Jay Wisman said he must return for a new sentencing hearing. Hulten also was ordered to pay nearly $2,000 in court costs and fees. Wisman said Hulten’s behavior was “reprehensible.” Hulten, 35, now lives in California. As part of a plea

agreement he admitted that he downloaded a data-wiping program onto a county-owned laptop in March 2013. That was evidence tampering because Hulten knew he was under investigation by King County detectives. They planned to examine the computer as part of an effort to See AIDE, Page A2

Taking a stand in Stanwood Students team to rid Church Creek Park of vandalism, drug use

STANWOOD — The mural is about transformation. It’s about overcoming struggle. It’s about finding a voice. That’s how seven Stanwood teens describe “Project STAND,” their work painting a mural for Church Creek Park at 27116 72nd Ave. NW. The teens and other volunteers are working with Stanwood police to clean up the 16-acre park, where vandalism, damaged play equipment, and drug and alcohol abuse have led to prolonged closures, especially during school hours.

When Police Chief Rick Hawkins visited the park last fall, the gate was locked, closing off the entrance, and young people were hanging out inside. At the sight of him, they scattered into the bushes. He waited them out. They all got to talking. He asked them for ideas to make the park vibrant again. As chief, Hawkins didn’t like the idea of a park being closed because of a few people committing crimes there, he said. “We’re supposed to prevent that,” he said. “Let’s stop the damage and criminal activity and get it fixed up and cleaned up, where people want to be a

part of it.” Around the same time the chief was thinking about the problems at the park, Krystal Roig, 32, stopped by the police station, to report issues with graffiti at a local grocery store. She’d recently moved to Stanwood from Florida. She and the chief talked. When people have problems, he likes to hear their ideas for solutions, he said. Hawkins learned that Roig has a master’s degree in criminal justice, and she had experience working with young people. Hawkins asked her for help with the park. That’s how the project got

started: “STAND,” for Stereotypes Alternatively Defined. Church Creek Park has a negative stereotype, Roig said. She assembled a team of teens who volunteered from Lincoln Hill High School, an alternative campus in town. “They put a lot of hours into this, since the beginning of February,” Hawkins said. The teens created a mockup for the mural. They recently presented it to the school board, and are now painting the final piece, a 10-by-4-foot two-piece plank of plywood, at the Community Resource center. See PARK, back page, this section

A retail marijuana outlet in Smokey Point is scheduled to open Sunday, and stores are coming to Camano Island and Langley.

SEATTLE — Washington state issued its first retail marijuana licenses Monday with a middle-of-the-night email alerting bleary-eyed pot-shop proprietors that they’ll finally be able to open for business. “We’re pretty stoked,” said John Evich, an investor in Bellingham’s Top Shelf Cannabis, in a 2:30 a.m. interview with The Associated Press. “We haven’t had any sleep in a long time, but we’re excited for the next step.” Randy Simmons, the state Liquor Control Board’s project manager for legal marijuana, said Sunday night that the first two dozen stores were being notified so early to give them an extra few hours to get cannabis on their shelves before they are allowed to open their doors at 8 a.m. today. The store openings are expected to be accompanied by high prices, shortages and celebration. The state licensed 14 stores in western Washington and 10 in eastern Washington. Snohomish County’s first marijuana retailer in Smokey Point is scheduled to open at 11 a.m. Sunday, while Island County is get its initial stores in Camano Island and Langley. Elsewhere, Spokane has three stores. Vancouver, Tacoma and Bellingham each have two. Seattle and the other cities on the list have one each. The issuance of the retail licenses marked a major step that’s been 20 months in the making. Washington and Colorado stunned much of the world by voting in November 2012 to legalize marijuana for adults over 21, and to create state-licensed systems for growing, selling and taxing the pot. Sales began in Colorado on Jan. 1. It remained unclear how many of the pot-shops being licensed in Washington planned to open today. Officials eventually expect to have more than 300 recreational pot shops across the state. At Cannabis City, which will be the first and, for now, only recreational marijuana shop

determine whether he’d broken any laws in a shadowy effort that for months had targeted Reardon’s political rivals with records requests made using various aliases, spoof emails and Web hit pages. The detectives recommended an evidence tampering charge. A Snohomish woman at the hearing on Monday told Wisman that she was unhappy with the case’s outcome and that she believed Hulten should have faced a felony charge for destroying public records. Skagit County’s work crew program allows inmates to serve their time picking up trash or performing other assignments that corrections officials believe will benefit the community, deputy prosecutor Paul Nielsen said. Unlike Snohomish County’s work-release program, Hulten won’t be required to sleep at the jail. Skagit County prosecutors decided what to do with the case to help

Snohomish County prosecutors avoid a conflict of interest. “We can only prosecute the facts that we have, not assumptions or hurt feelings,” Skagit County deputy prosecutor Sloan Johnson said after the hearing. In court papers, prosecutors said they were unable to determine what data Hulten deleted from the laptop. Forensic examination of other Snohomish County computers he used, however, yielded hundreds of records documenting years of political campaigning and digital mischief in support of Reardon. The activity started the day Hulten joined the office in January 2011. The county paid him about $60,000 to be Reardon’s legislative analyst. Reardon weathered scandals during his nine years as executive, including a Washington State Patrol investigation into his use of public money while pursuing a years-long affair with a former county social worker. Reardon announced his resignation a week after The Herald unmasked Hulten’s activities. He has since moved to California. In his ruse, Hulten often

Most of the records “Edmond Thomas” sought were for people who had cooperated with the State Patrol investigation of Reardon. Using the pseudonym, Hulten threatened to sue the county if his demands weren’t met. He initially denied involvement. His story then morphed to claims that he was a government whistleblower set on rooting out a supposed conspiracy against Reardon involving Herald investigative reporters and county prosecutors. The county spent nearly $35,000 on an independent attorney to investigate Hulten’s claims and determined they were baseless. He resigned from his county job a few weeks before Reardon left. At the time, Hulten was in the process of being fired for using county computers to view and store pornography and sexually explicit images of himself and a girlfriend.

The materials were found as part of the investigation into Hulten’s “Edmond Thomas” activities. The same investigation turned up hundreds of records that had been earlier deleted, detailing political work Hulten did for Reardon while on the county’s time. The information was partially scrubbed from county computers in 2011 after The Herald made several public records requests about the aide’s involvement in Reardon’s campaign for a third term as executive. Reardon claimed he had no knowledge of Hulten’s campaign activities on county time, despite the aide’s work on his election website. Reardon also defended Hulten’s use of anonymous public records requests to harass people in other branches of county government. Hulten and Reardon remain under investigation by the state Public Disclosure Commission for alleged misconduct during the 2011 campaign. The commission can levy fines for wrongdoing. It is unclear when that investigation will be complete. Noah Haglund: 425339-3465; nhaglund@ heraldnet.com.

Kevin Hulten, the former aide to former county executive Aaron Reardon, was fined $1,500 and ordered to work five days on a work crew following his guilty plea for evidence tampering.

Woman held for alleged assault By Eric Stevick and Diana Hefley Herald Writers

LYNNWOOD — A Lynnwood area woman who police believe might suffer from mental illness was arrested late last week after allegedly tossing her 1-year-old

nephew out of a second-story window. The boy’s skull was fractured and he suffered brain injuries, police reported. An update of his condition wasn’t immediately available. His aunt was booked into the Snohomish County Jail for

investigation of first-degree domestic violence assault. Beteha Kebede, who is from Ethiopia, told Snohomish County sheriff ’s deputies that “they” are trying to kill her, but she was not able to articulate who “they” were. She reportedly said that she threw the

child out the window, believing that her actions would prevent “them” from killing her and her children. Detectives were told that Kebede, 38, had her own children removed from her care See ASSAULT, Page A5

The new aerial performance incorporates airplanes and pyrotechnics, with fireworks set to launch from two planes, giving them tails of sparks as they loop through the sky after the sun goes down Saturday. The second new show features the Seattle Cossacks Motorcycle Stunt and Drill Team riding vintage motorcycles. It’s set for 5 p.m. Friday. The Fly-In is scheduled to run Thursday through Saturday at Arlington Municipal Airport.

‘A way to give back’

By Amy Nile Herald Writer

He worried the broadcast production skills he’d been honing wouldn’t be very useful in recovery efforts. Then he heard about a WSU internship opportunity with the city of Arlington. The university sought students interested in Oso recovery efforts, then tried to match areas of interest and expertise with community needs in Darrington, Arlington and elsewhere in Snohomish County, said Michael Gaffney, associate director of WSU’s Division of Governmental Studies and Services.

MILL CREEK — The city has a piece of land here that could potentially be used as the home of a new Boys & Girls Club. But it takes work, time and money to get one up and running, said Bill Tsoukalas, executive director for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Snohomish County. Mill Creek officials are exploring the possibility of leasing a 10-acre property next to Freedom Field at the Mill Creek Sports Park to the club for a nominal fee, such as $1 a year. In exchange, the Boys & Girls Club would build a recreation center and offer activities for young people. The city could then piggyback on the effort and build a new all-season sports field nearby. Tsoukalas plans give officials a realistic idea of what needs to happen to bring a new club to Mill Creek at the City Council

Summer gigs have added importance for a pair of WSU interns from Arlington By Kari Bray Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — Hannah Hoffman had just returned to Pullman after spring break when she saw the first headlines pop up on the Internet. The Arlington native remembers reading the words “mudslide in Oso.” “Nobody knew where Oso is,” she said. “So to see this big headline, I thought, ‘Oh gosh, what happened?’ ” During the next few weeks, the 20-year-old Washington State University student checked a growing list of the names of those confirmed

dead in the March 22 slide. She was afraid to see one she recognized. She never did. But she knows others who were not so lucky. The Oso mudslide claimed 43 lives. Hoffman, who studies natural resource sciences at WSU, wanted to do something to help. When Washington State University announced a summer internship program geared toward aiding the cities of Arlington and Darrington, she applied. Josh Robinson, another 20-year-old WSU student who grew up in Arlington, was packing his bags to head

back to Pullman when he first heard about a mudslide up the highway. “It was hard to pack up and leave,” he said. “This is a pretty small community. But at first, I don’t think anyone thought it was that magnitude.” When he came to Arlington for a visit a few weeks later, he drove by command centers bustling with activity. That’s when it hit home, he said. Robinson found out that his younger brother had lost a friend to the mudslide: 13-yearold Jovon “JoJo” Mangual. “From the beginning, I wanted to find a way to give back,” Robinson said.

“We want to be a resource for locally driven recovery, not someone coming in from outside and deciding what to do,” he said. Hoffman and Robinson are two of 12 students participating in the nineweek program. Hoffman is researching Arlington’s water resources in preparation for any future disasters. The bulk of her job involves recording data from city records so Arlington can map access points for its water system. After the mudslide, the city turned off its municipal water supply and relied on the Snohomish County Public Utility District until Arlington water could be checked for contaminants. Hoffman’s research will help the city develop a better emergency water plan, she said. Robinson is filming and producing two promotional videos for the city, one for the police department and the other for the fire department. The city intends to use them for professional and volunteer recruitment, he said. Nine of the WSU interns are from Arlington, one is from Snohomish and two are not from the area, said Sylvia Kantor, communications coordinator for the WSU College of Agricultural, Human, and Natural Resource Sciences. Most of the Arlington students in the internship program are also receiving tuition waivers for the coming school year, she said. Three of the interns are working with the city of Arlington, two with Darrington, one with Snohomish County and six with the university, either in Pullman or at its Snohomish County extension. Hoffman and Robinson

agree that the most eye-opening experience during their internships has been hearing from first responders. “This was a huge impact on our small community,” Hoffman said. “Hearing about it was a big impact on me.” Robinson said the scope of the slide was impossible to grasp until he saw it in person. “I don’t think pictures do it justice,” he said. “It doesn’t come close to the reality.” The interns are learning practical skills, Gaffney said, but are gaining a deeper sense of community and service that he hopes will last long beyond the internship. “They are learning about resilience and sacrifice and, some of them, about heroism,” he said. “They’re seeing what a disaster can do to a community and how a resilient community can react to a disaster.” Washington State University has made a two-year commitment to aid recovery efforts in Arlington, Darrington and Oso, Gaffney said. So far, WSU plans a fundraising banquet in Pullman on Sept. 5, along with a community service week in Darrington this fall. WSU Snohomish County Extension also hired Judy Pendergrass of Darrington as a fulltime community and economic development coordinator for the city through 2016. “We’ve been really deliberate about making ourselves available but not promising that we know all the answers or even have all the right questions,” Gaffney said. “Those interns are just the tip of the iceberg, and we don’t know what the rest of the iceberg will look like yet.” Kari Bray: 425-3393439, kbray@heraldnet. com.

EVERETT — Two teens who allegedly tried to shoplift booze in June from an Everett Safeway while armed with a pellet gun are now facing felony robbery charges. One boy, 17, was on probation at the time for stealing alcohol from Target and assaulting the store security guards who tried to stop him. His buddy, 18, also has prior convictions, including breaking into a school while he was drunk. This is the first time the teens face adult felony charges. If convicted, a first-degree robbery charge is a strike under the state’s persistent offender law. Both teens were being held on $50,000 bail. The robbery happened June 27 outside the Safeway in the 11000 block of 19th

Avenue SE in south Everett. Grocery stores, such as Safeway, began selling hard alcohol in 2012 after voters approved privatization of liquor sales. The store manager told police that while monitoring security cameras he saw two young men take three bottles of alcohol off a shelf and hide them in their clothes. The suspects, later identified as William Broady and Malachi Morrissey, tried to leave the store without paying, court papers said. The store manager stopped the teens before they left, extending his arms in an attempt to block their exit. Broady reportedly said “don’t make me shoot you, fool.” Morrissey allegedly shoved the manager out of the way and the teens left. The manager followed the two outside and told them to stop. Broady

allegedly turned to face the man and was holding what appeared to be a semiautomatic handgun. The manager, fearing he was going to be shot, backed off and called 911. Broady reportedly dropped the gun, then picked it up. He and Morrissey ran off. Everett police officers already were in the area and chased after the teens. The officers found three bottles of liquor and a pellet gun near where they caught the suspects, Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Craig Matheson wrote in charging papers. The store manager identified the two as the teens who shoplifted the booze and pulled a gun on him. A week before the incident, a judge ordered Morrissey’s arrest for failing to comply with probation. Morrissey pleaded guilty

in May in juvenile court to theft and assault. That conviction stemmed from an incident in January at the Target in Everett. Morrissey hid alcohol in his clothes and then fought with security officers who tried to stop him from leaving the store with the booze. At the time of that incident Morrissey had a warrant for his arrest in connection with a theft case from August 2013. Morrissey grabbed a man’s cell phone as he was getting off a bus and ran off. Police caught up with him and found the phone in his shorts. Broady also has numerous criminal convictions. He spent nearly a year in juvenile lock up for a burglary in 2012. About two months after being released he broke into Highland Christian School and broke out windows.

in Seattle, owner James Lathrop worked into the night Sunday placing noparking signs in front of his building, hoisting a grand-opening banner and hanging artwork before he turned his attention to his email — and the official notification that he was a licensed marijuana dealer. “I’ve had a long day. It really hasn’t sunk in yet,” he said early Monday. He planned to hold off on opening his store until today at noon. “Know your audience; we’re talking stoners here,” he said. “I’d be mean to say they need to get up at 5 a.m. to get in line.” With the emailed notifications in hand, the shops immediately worked to place their orders with some of the state’s first licensed growers. As soon as the orders were received,

The final days before sales have been frenetic for growers and retailers alike. Lathrop and his team hired an events company to provide crowd control, arranged for a food truck and free water for those who might spend hours waiting outside, and rented a portable toilet to keep his customers from burdening nearby businesses with requests to use the restrooms. At Nine Point Growth Industries, a marijuana grower in Bremerton, owner Gregory Stewart said he and his director celebrated after

they worked through some glitches in the pot-tracking software early Monday and officially learned they’d be able to transport their weed 24 hours later, at 2:22 a.m. today. “It’s the middle of the night and we’re standing here doing high-fives and our version of a happy dance,” he said. “It’s huge for us.” Pot prices were expected to reach $25 a gram or higher on the first day of sales — twice what people pay in the state’s unregulated medical marijuana dispensaries. That was largely due to the short supply of legally produced pot in the state. Although more than 2,600 people applied to become licensed growers, fewer than 100 have been approved — and only about a dozen were ready to harvest by early this month. Nevertheless, Evich said his shop in Bellingham wanted to thank the state’s residents for voting for the law by offering $10 grams of one cannabis strain to

the first 50 or 100 customers. The other strains would be priced between $12 and $25, he said. The store will be open at 8 a.m. today, he said, but work remained: trimming the bathroom door, cleaning the floors, wiping dust off the walls and, of course, stocking the shelves. In Seattle, among those who planned to buy some of the first pot at Cannabis City was Alison Holcomb, the lawyer who drafted Washington’s law. She said it was a good opportunity to remind people of the big-picture arguments for ending nearly a century of prohibition and displacing the black market, including keeping nonviolent, adult marijuana users out of jail; redirecting profits away from criminal groups; and ending racial disparities in who gets busted. “No one thought legalization could happen in our lifetime,” she said. “I think this is going to be a little overwhelming for me.”

Q&A about Washington’s pot sales By Gene Johnson Associated Press

SEATTLE — Washington state’s first recreational marijuana stores open for business this week, more than a year and a half after voters decided to legalize, tax and regulate pot. Some questions and answers about the industry: Q: When can I buy legal weed? A: The state’s Liquor Control Board plans to issue the first 15 to 20 retail marijuana licenses on Monday, and stores can open at 8 a.m. today if they’re ready — but they might not have any cannabis on the shelves right away. Once stores get their licenses, they can place their orders with the state’s licensed growers, who have to wait 24 hours before they ship the marijuana, and there’s travel time to account for, too. But two licensed growers and a hopeful retailer said Sunday that they expected the licenses to be issued electronically at 1 a.m. Monday. If all goes according to plan, that should leave time for product to be available in at least some stores by Tuesday morning. Q: Where can I buy legal weed? A: The board hasn’t identified the stores that will get their licenses Monday, but

some of the shops have told reporters they’ve paid their fees, passed their inspections and are ready for their golden tickets. The board said a few stores were prepared in Spokane, Tacoma, Bellingham and Vancouver, but only one is expected to open in Seattle. Q: Will it be expensive? A: Yes. Although some stores say they plan to sell some of their supply for as little as $12 a gram — comparable to what it sells for at the state’s unregulated medical dispensaries — others expect it to go for $25 or more. The issue is mainly supply. Relatively few growers have harvested — the pot being offered for sale in the coming days was grown by only about a dozen producers statewide. According to the two labs certified to check the pot for mold and other impurities, the samples they had tested by last Thursday represent a maximum initial statewide harvest of about 440 pounds. Some growers are asking $4,000 per pound wholesale. The marijuana is heavily taxed — 25 percent at wholesale and 25 percent at retail, at least, not to mention additional sales taxes. Officials don’t expect prices to stabilize until after many more growers begin harvesting. Q: How much can I buy?

A: State law allows the sale of up to an ounce of dried marijuana, 16 ounces of pot-infused solids, 72 ounces of pot-infused liquids or 7 grams of concentrated marijuana, like hashish, to adults over 21, whether you’re a Washington resident or not. But there isn’t expected to be any infused food or drink available right away: As of last week, the Liquor Control Board had not issued any licenses to processors of those products, or approved any edibles for sale. Some stores are talking about limiting customers to one 2-gram package apiece to make sure there’s enough for everyone to buy some. Q: What took so long to get the stores open? A: Colorado already had a regulated medical marijuana system, making for a smoother transition when it allowed those dispensaries to start selling to recreational pot shops on Jan. 1. Washington’s medical system is unregulated, so officials here were starting from scratch as they immersed themselves in the pot world and tried to come up with regulations that made sense for the industry and the public. The regulations include protocols for testing marijuana, what types of edibles should be allowed,

requirements for childresistant packaging, how much criminal history is too much to get a license, and what types of security systems pot shops and growers should have. Ultimately, though, much of the delays can be attributed to overwhelming interest: The liquor board received nearly 7,000 applications from people who wanted to grow, process or sell marijuana. Each of them needs to be vetted, with criminal and financial background checks, reviews to ensure they’re not too close to a school or daycare, and approval of their business and security plans. It’s time consuming work, and the board’s 18 licensing investigators have been swamped. Q: Where does the tax money go, and who’s paying for programs to prevent problems? A: The measure voters passed in 2012 directs some marijuana tax revenue to the state Health Department for public health programs. But tax revenue hasn’t come in yet. With sales about to start, the department scraped together $400,000 for a new radio and online advertisement campaign urging parents to talk to their kids about marijuana and visit www.learnaboutmarijuanawa.org .

LOCAL BRIEFLY

Brush fire still smoldering SNOHOMISH — Crews continue to monitor a Snohomish-area bog where a stubborn brush fire burned over the weekend. The fire, which first burned late Saturday evening, kicked back up on Sunday and burned again for about three hours, Snohomish Fire Chief Ron Simmons said. The blaze initially covered about an acre west of the city, in the lowlands around Ebey Slough near Fobes Road. State wildland firefighters were called to help. The fire was extinguished again about 5 p.m. Sunday. The cause of the fire remains under investigation, but fireworks are suspected, officials said. That area is covered in soggy ground and drainage ditches and can only be accessed on foot, Simmons

said. Firefighters will be watching the area for hot spots for at least a few days.

Everett: No one hurt in house fire No injuries were reported after a house fire in the Lowell neighborhood of Everett on Monday morning. The fire was reported at 7:32 a.m. in the 5600 block of South Third Street. The family had left for the day, so no one was home, officials said. The family of four was displaced. The house is believed to be a total loss. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Loan program for homeowners A Snohomish County program has loaned 360 homeowners money to pay

for efficiency-related home improvements, the county reports. Work through the Energy Smart Loan program over the past two years has saved 6 billion BTUs — enough power to serve 166 homes for an entire year, the county said. An average homeowner stands to save about $500 per year. Overall investment was more than $3.6 million, or a little over $10,000 on average for each project. The county launched the program in 2012 using federal stimulus dollars with Puget Sound Cooperative Credit Union as a partner. The county has used its original $644,000 federal grant to help guarantee loans extended through the credit union. The county expects the program to cover $12 million in lowinterest loans through 2018. For more info, contact Lisa Dulude, county energy and sustainability manager: 425-388-3965 or lisa.

Marysville: Crash investigation A crash that was caused when a man jumped from a moving car near Marysville on Saturday is still under investigation. The threecar accident was reported about 12:30 a.m. Saturday along Highway 9. According to the Washington State Patrol, the 27-year-old Marysville man was a passenger in a northbound Chevrolet Tahoe driven by a 16-year-old Stanwood girl. Ten people were in the Tahoe at the time. Police say the man was arguing with his wife, who was also in the car, when he opened the door and jumped. A Chevrolet Blazer struck the Tahoe while swerving to avoid the man in the road. A Ford Mustang then swerved to miss the Blazer and also struck

the Tahoe. The man who jumped was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with head injuries. He was listed Monday in serious condition in the intensive care unit. A 66-year-old Granite Falls woman, who was a passenger in the Blazer, had a broken leg and was taken to Cascade Valley Hospital. No other serious injuries were reported. The driver of the Tahoe was believed to have been high on marijuana at the time of the crash, troopers said. She was arrested for investigation of driving under the influence and vehicular assault, and later released into her parents’ custody. There is no specific state law that prohibits people from jumping from moving vehicles, trooper Mark Francis said Monday. However, doing so causes serious safety and traffic concerns and in some cases may be considered disorderly conduct, a

misdemeanor. The investigation will be forwarded to prosecutors for review, Francis said.

Skykomish: 2 hurt in U.S. 2 crash An early-morning crash on U.S. 2 near Skykomish on Monday sent two people to the hospital. An Everett man, 23, was westbound in a Ford F-350 when he drove off the road into an embankment, according to the Washington State Patrol. The crash was reported just before 2:30 a.m. The man and his passenger, a 31-year-old Everett woman, were taken to local hospitals. Their injuries turned out to be less serious than first thought, trooper Mark Francis said. The crash is being investigated as a potential case of driving under the influence and vehicular assault, Francis said. From Herald staff reports

because of her mental illness and refusal to take medications, court papers said. Kebede “sees things, hears things and is very paranoid,” family members reportedly told police. A downstairs tenant reportedly found the injured boy on the concrete in front of the home in the 14500 block of 36th Avenue West. She told police she was smoking on her porch when she heard a thud. She saw the boy lying on the ground, limp. He was bleeding from the mouth. She looked up and noticed that the second-story window was slightly open. She didn’t think the opening was large enough for a child to fit but she assumed that the boy fell, according to court papers. She told detectives she picked up the boy and carried him upstairs to the family. The child’s parents weren’t home. Various relatives were inside and called 911. Kebede had left shortly before the neighbor brought the boy upstairs. As paramedics were responding to the home Kebede reportedly tried to tell a nearby business owner that she had a

problem. The shop owner couldn’t understand the woman and called 911. A deputy found Kebede who reported that someone was trying to kill her. The deputy called for paramedics, concerned that the woman was suffering from a mental health crisis. She reportedly told the deputy that she had thrown her nephew out of the house. She later pointed to a nearby home, where the deputy could see aid cars, and allegedly said she had “thrown the baby” out of a window, detectives wrote in an affidavit filed Monday in Everett District Court. A witness told detectives that Kebede was alone with the child for a long time before she quickly left the home. No one heard the boy cry or any kind of disturbance. Kebede doesn’t live in the home. She allegedly told detectives she was talking to someone on the phone from California. She said that after the calls she believed “they” were going to kill her. Detectives reported that Kebede reenacted how she tossed the child out the window. “She did not show any emotion or remorse for her admitted actions,” sheriff’s detective David Fontenot wrote in the affidavit.

This year’s Fly-In includes two themed days. Thursday is kids day, with face painting and a bouncy house, among other activities. Friday is vintage day, featuring airplanes and cars from the 1920s and 1930s. Volunteers at Camp Adams, a section of the Fly-In that is set up like a military camp, plan to showcase vintage tanks with mock battles at 1 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, Tolbert said. A hot air-balloon glow also is expected to light the sky on Friday night, weather permitting.

Obama backs off on border plan By Erica Werner and Jim Kuhnhenn Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama is holding off for now on seeking new legal authority to send unaccompanied migrant children back home faster from the Southern border, following criticism that the administration’s planned changes were too harsh. Instead, when Obama formally asks Congress for more than $2 billion in emergency spending today to deal with the border crisis, the request will not be accompanied by the policy changes that the White House had indicated it planned to seek, according to two congressional aides. The

aides spoke Monday on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak about the matter by name ahead of the announcement. White House officials said they still intend to pursue additional authorities to speed the return of the children who’ve been arriving by the thousands, mostly from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. But for now the White House request will focus on additional money for immigration judges, detention facilities, legal aid and other items that could address the situation on the border, which the administration has termed a humanitarian crisis. The new approach comes after the White House told Congress last week that it

would seek “additional authority” for the Homeland Security secretary to quickly return the minors back home. Immigration advocates understood this to mean that the children, who currently have the right to a hearing before an immigration judge, would lose that right and instead would have to make it through an initial screening with a Border Patrol agent. The immigrant advocacy community responded angrily, with more than 200 groups signing onto a letter last week calling on Obama to reconsider the changes. “It would take away their right to counsel, right to proper screening. ... It would undermine completely due process,” Leslie Holman, president of the

American Immigration Lawyers Association, said Monday. Some congressional Democrats also voiced concerns. The controversy looks set to dog Obama this week as he travels to Texas, primarily to raise money for Democratic congressional candidates. White House press secretary Josh Earnest reiterated Monday that Obama had no plans to visit the border, but Obama faced renewed criticism from Republicans over that decision. “President Obama needs a wake up call — and visiting the border and seeing firsthand the severity of this ongoing crisis is that wake up call,” Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said in remarks prepared for delivery on the Senate floor.

Gaza militants fire rockets at Israel JERUSALEM — Militants in the Gaza Strip unleashed dozens of rockets on southern Israel late Monday, setting off air raid sirens and forcing hundreds of thousands of Israelis indoors as the military rushed more forces to the border and warned that even heavier fighting looked likely. The latest violence came as Israel pressed forward with its investigation of six Jewish youths suspected of abducting and burning to death a Palestinian teenager, and Israeli leaders sought to calm an emotional debate over whether the country’s politically charged atmosphere led to the gruesome crime. Tensions have been high since three Israeli teenagers kidnapped June 12 in the West Bank were later found dead, followed by last week’s slaying of the Palestinian youth in what many suspect was a revenge attack. Throughout the unrest, Gaza militants have launched more than 200 rockets and mortars into Israel. Israel has responded with dozens of airstrikes, but has not been able to halt the attacks. Eight Palestinian militants were killed in fighting Monday, the highest death toll yet. Dozens of rockets were fired Monday, including 40 launched in a single hour after nightfall. Twelve rockets were intercepted by rocket-defense batteries, it added, while the others landed in open areas. Among the dead were six Hamas militants who Israel said were killed in an accidental blast in a tunnel packed with explosives. Hamas, the Islamic militant group that controls Gaza, vowed revenge, saying “the enemy will pay a tremendous price.” Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, an Israel Defense Forces spokesman, said the army was moving two infantry forces to the Gaza border and had received authorization to mobilize up to 1,500 reservists. The increased rocket fire followed the killing of Mohammed Abu Khdeir, a 16-year-old Palestinian boy from east Jerusalem who was abducted and

A tipping point for some members was Duncan’s statement last month in support of a California judge’s ruling that struck down tenure and other job protections for the state’s public school teachers. Before that, teachers’ unions — historically a steadfast Democratic ally — have clashed with the administration over other issues ranging from its support of charter schools to its push to use student test scores as part of evaluating teachers.

McCarthy said Monday investigations were continuing but that officers who fired their weapons all appeared to be justified.

Ariz.: Immigrant licenses An appeals court sided with advocates for young immigrants who argued that Arizona’s policy of denying them driver’s licenses even though they had work permits under an Obama administration policy violated their equal protection rights. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals agreed the young immigrants were harmed by unequal treatment by the state and blocked Arizona’s policy in its ruling Monday.

Palestinian relatives of Abed Rahman al-Zamli, 24, a member of the Ezz Al-Din Al Qassam brigade, the military wing of Hamas, gather around his body at the morgue of the Najar hospital in Rafah, southern Gaza Strip, on Monday. Several of members of the group were killed in an Israeli airstrike Monday.

killed last week. Israeli officials Sunday announced the arrests of six Jewish youths, including some minors, in the killings. Abu Khdeir’s death triggered several days of violent protests in Arab areas of Jerusalem and northern Israel as Palestinians accused Israeli extremists of killing the boy to avenge the deaths of the Israeli teens. Israel’s Shin Bet agency, which handles top security cases, imposed a gag order, blocking key details, including the identities and backgrounds of the youths, as well as most of the evidence from being made public. An Israeli official said three of the youths had confessed to the crime and even re-enacted it for authorities. The official spoke on condition of anonymity due to the gag order. The official said the suspects included two brothers, and that one of the suspects is the son of a rabbi. Three minor suspects were allowed to meet with lawyers Monday, while the primary suspects were not. Despite the gag order, some details have begun to emerge. Israel’s Channel 10 TV said

New York City police said they are searching for a woman who abandoned a baby at a Manhattan subway station. Police said the woman pushed the baby’s stroller onto the platform when the northbound No. 1 train arrived at the Columbus Circle station on Monday. Then she got back onto the train. The baby is thought to be about 10 months to a year old. Police say there were no apparent signs of trauma.

the suspects were the son and five grandsons of a prominent rabbi in Jerusalem, without further identifying him. It said that a Jerusalem district court presented its suspicions Monday against the suspects, including “belonging to a terror organization.” It did not elaborate, and Israeli officials did not confirm the details in the report. The news that the suspects were Jewish set off nationwide soul-searching over how Israelis could possibly carry out such a gruesome crime. A preliminary autopsy found that Abu Khdeir was still alive when he was set on fire.

“I am ashamed on behalf of my nation and grieve with you,” President Shimon Peres told Abu Khdeir’s father, Hussein, in a phone call. “The only thing left for all of us to do is to ensure that no more children are murdered, and no more tears are shed by mothers.” Also Monday, Israeli police said a border policeman had been temporarily suspended and transferred until the completion of an investigation into the apparent police beating of Tariq Abu Khdeir, a Palestinian-American teenage cousin of the murdered Palestinian boy.

And I humbly ask forgiveness,” Francis said. “I beg your forgiveness, too, for the sins of omission on the part of church leaders who did not respond adequately to reports of abuse made by family members, as well as by abuse victims themselves,” the pope said. “This led to even greater suffering on the part of those who were abused, and it endangered other minors who were at risk.” One of the six, Marie Kane, 43, who was abused by a priest for three years while a teenager in Ireland, said she asked

Francis to remove an Irish cardinal, Sean Brady, from his post because of how he handled abuse allegations. Kane told The Irish Times that she told Francis a “coverup is still happening, and you have the power to make these changes.” She quoted him as replying, “It was difficult to make these changes.” Francis acknowledged that the abuse drove some victims to addiction and even suicide and said the deaths “weigh upon the heart and my conscience and that of the whole church.” Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said the six first met with the pope Sunday during dinner at the Vatican.

How GM switch redesign went wrong Responding to complaints from customers about ‘cheap-feeling’ switches, General Motors worked to develop new ones, which led to at least 13 deaths. By Tom Krisher Associated Press

DETROIT — General Motors’ deadly ignition switch flaws emerged from an effort to improve its cars. As the company began developing new small cars in the late 1990s, it listened to customers who complained about “cheapfeeling” switches that required too much effort to turn. GM set about making switches that would work more smoothly and give drivers the impression that they were better designed, a GM switch engineer testified in a lawsuit deposition in the spring of 2013. The switches, though, were too loose, touching off events that led to at least 13 deaths, more than 50

crashes and a raft of legal trouble for the Detroit automaker. Former U.S. Attorney Anton Valukas, hired by GM in March to investigate the switch problems, told a congressional subcommittee last month that GM wanted each small-car ignition to “feel

like it was a European sports car or something.” After years of lagging behind the Japanese, GM was eager to make better, more competitive small cars. But as it turned out, the new switches in models such as the Chevrolet Cobalt and Saturn Ion

can unexpectedly slip from “run” to “accessory,” causing engines to stall. That shuts off the power steering, making cars harder to control, and disables air bags in crashes. GM says the problem has caused at least 13 deaths, but some members of Congress put the death toll near 100. The problem led GM to recall 2.6 million small cars in February, and forced the company to admit it knew about the switch troubles for more than a decade before taking action. It has touched off federal investigations and prodded GM to review other safety issues, leading to 54 recalls this year covering 29 million vehicles. The Associated Press traced the history of the problem using Valukas’ report as well as a deposition of GM switch engineer Ray DeGiorgio that was released by a House subcommittee. The deposition was also released by lawyers suing GM, but DeGiorgio’s comments were redacted in that version. In a wrongful death case in Georgia, DeGiorgio testified that he started out trying to make the See GM, Page A8

First fuselage pulled from river Associated Press MISSOULA, Mont. — A Montana Rail Link spokeswoman said it took about 12 hours to remove the first of three commercial airplane bodies that fell into the Clark Fork River after a train derailed. Spokeswoman Lynda Frost said Monday that specialized machines are pulling the 20-ton fuselages attached to 50-ton flatbed cars from the embankment one at a time at a rate of 20 feet per hour. Frost said the most difficult fuselage to retrieve was removed safely Sunday. Crews worked on the second fuselage Monday and plan to remove the third by today. Frost said crews are attempting to remove the fuselages and their flatbed cars without causing any additional damage. Three other Boeing 737 fuselages fell off the train during Thursday’s derailment 50 miles west of Missoula. Boeing is deciding what to do with the six newly manufactured commercial airplane bodies. Experts from Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems, which built the fuselages, are at the site of the derailment, spokeswoman Dina Weiss said in a statement. “Once we have completed our assessment of damages and determined our next course of

action, we will decide what to do with the fuselages,” she said. She said that other Boeing 777 and 747 airplane parts on some of the 19 cars that went off the tracks appear undamaged and will be shipped to the company’s Everett assembly plant. Weiss said it was not immediately clear whether the fuselages were 737-700s, which are relatively short at 110 feet from nose to tail, or the longer 737-800s or 737-900s, which are more than 133 feet long. The fuselages were being shipped from the Spirit AeroSystems plant in Wichita, Kansas, to a Boeing facility in Renton to be assembled into airliners. The huge blue-green fuselages are a common site on railways along the 2,000-mile trek from Kansas to Washington. Ken Evans, senior manager for Spirit AeroSystems, said the company ships 42 of the 737 fuselages each month. Spirit AeroSystems has been designing, building and shipping the fuselages by rail from Wichita since 1968, he said. The cause of the derailment had not been determined as of Sunday, and Frost did not return a call or email for comment Monday morning.

ATLANTA — More American households are ditching their old telephones: 4 out of 10 only use cellphones, a government survey shows. That’s twice the rate from just five years ago, although the pace of dumping landlines seems to have slowed down in recent years. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been tracking phone use for a decade,

and the number of households only using cellphones had been rising by about 5 percentage points each year. Lately, the increases have been smaller and last year it only went up 3 percentage points to 41 percent of U.S. homes. Why the slight leveling off? Experts could only speculate.

switches easier to turn. But from the beginning he was consumed by electrical issues in the switch, not its mechanical parts. When the switch supplier, Delphi, pointed out tests showing the switches turned too easily, DeGiorgio told Delphi not to change them because he was concerned mechanical alterations would harm the switch’s electrical performance, according to Valukas. Delphi spokeswoman Claudia Tapia said the company isn’t commenting on the details of GM’s recall. In the end, DeGiorgio approved switches that were far below GM’s

because it is part of their Internet and cable TV package. Or it could mean that we’re hitting a ceiling for those people willing to completely abandon landlines, said John Palmer, a researcher at the Autonomous University in Barcelona, Spain, who was not involved in the report. The CDC survey released Tuesday is based on

specifications for the force required to turn them. The result was a smooth-turning key, but also one that could slip out of position. Several years later, DeGiorgio signed off on a design change that fixed the problem, but he didn’t change the part number, which stymied later attempts to figure out what was wrong with the cars. Repeated efforts to reach DeGiorgio have been unsuccessful. He was one of 15 employees dismissed by the company last month due to the recalls. At a House subcommittee hearing last month, GM CEO Mary Barra didn’t mince words when lawmakers asked her about DeGiorgio’s statements to Valukas and

in-person interviews in more than 21,000 homes during the last half of 2013. The researchers found: ■■Not all homes have phones: About 3 percent have no landline or cellphone. ■■About 9 percent have only landlines, and about 48 percent have both. Five years ago, 17 percent had only landlines, and about 60 percent had landlines and cellphones. ■■Younger people rely more on cellphones: Nearly two-thirds of people in their late 20s live in

Only 14 percent of people 65 and older use only cellphones. ■■Men are a bit more likely to shun landlines than women. ■■Poor adults are much more likely than higherincome people to have only cellphones. ■■The Midwest is the most wireless region: About 44 percent live in cellphoneonly homes.

BNSF reports drop in oil train shipments Associated Press SEATTLE — The latest disclosure from BNSF Railway shows a drop in the number of volatile oil train shipments that moved through Washington in a single week. State officials released the information Monday in

response to a request from The Associated Press. BNSF Railway previously told the state that as many as 19 trains of Bakken crude oil traversed the state during the week of May 29 to June 4. The recent data shows many as 13 oil trains during

the following week. On average, however, BNSF said a weekly high of 18 trains and a low of nine trains move through Washington. Railroads are required to tell state officials if oil train traffic changes by 25 percent.

GM spokesman Greg Martin said Valukas’ report cites several opportunities

that the company missed to fix the problem before the switches went into production. “It should never have happened regardless of what the reasons for changing the initial specifications for the switches were,” he said. Subsequent safety reviews also found ignition switch troubles in other cars. The company has issued five recalls for 17.1 million cars with switch problems this year. Among the recalls are 3.4 million large cars like the Chevrolet Impala, which had switches DeGiorgio worked on. GM says the combined force of a large bump and a swinging key chain can cause those switches to slip and stall the engine. GM is changing

the key hole from a slot to a small circle to limit how much key chains can swing and tug on the ignition. Unlike the Cobalt and Ion switches, GM says the ignition switches on the large cars meet its specifications, and the key design is the problem. GM says it conducted eight different driving tests with the new key and the ignition didn’t move out of the “run” position in any of the tests. But some experts believe the switches can still slip out of “run” too easily. “They’re finding that it’s still possible for it to happen,” said Erin Shipp, a mechanical engineer who helped uncover the small-car ignition switch problems while working for attorneys suing GM.

Strike: Cargo still moving From Page A7

wage once the cost of renting and maintaining a truck is factored in, and have filed lawsuits and complaints with state and federal labor agencies to change their status. Companies counter that pay is good and those picketing do not represent the majority of drivers. On Monday, 120 drivers went on strike against Green Fleet Systems, Total Transportation Services, Inc. and Pacific 9 Transportation, Inc., according to Barb Maynard, a spokeswoman for a campaign to organize truckers. The three trucking companies have approximately 400 trucks registered at the Port of Los Angeles — about 10 percent of those that operate on a regular day, port spokesman Phillip Sanfield said. Both Sanfield and Ports

of Long Beach spokesman Lee Peterson said cargo was moving normally, though several terminals were closed to honor a holiday that commemorates the killing of several dockworkers during the 1930s, when organizers succeeded in forming what has become a union with huge leverage at the West Coast’s 29 ports. Members of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union are currently working without a contract — their six-year deal with the association representing shipping lines and West Coast port terminal operators expired July 1. There were no formal contract talks Monday and none expected for the next few days. Both the union and the Pacific Maritime Association have said they do not want a disruption in the flow of goods.

That could be a challenge if truckers picket dockside terminals, as Maynard said would happen if trucks from the three companies make those runs. During past trucker strikes, dockworkers stopped working in solidarity but quickly returned when an arbitrator ruled the job action was not permissible under their contract. With no contract in place, the arbitration process is not in effect. If dockworkers walk, their employers can’t force them back to work. International Longshore and Warehouse Union spokesman Craig Merrilees would not speculate over what dockworkers might do if picketers set up outside marine terminals. A spokesman for the maritime association had no comment.

IN OUR VIEW | RETAIL MARIJUANA STORES

Pot genie is out of the bottle Prohibition didn’t work, or so lawmakers learned more than 80 years ago. But the parallels between America’s puritanical experiment with the Eighteenth Amendment and the legal sale of marijuana likely end there. Today, Washington gets into the weeds (pun intended). The serpentine bureaucracy, the reams of regulations. Cannabis has met the enemy, and he is us. For some in law enforcement, jaded by trivial marijuana busts, it’s a longtime coming. Former Seattle Police Chief Norm Stamper, an advisory board member of the organization “Law Enforcement Again Prohibition,” issued a sanguine

prediction. “Washingtonians know that, as in Colorado, governments both foreign and domestic will be watching to see how legalization progresses in the state,” he said. “And I imagine that, as in Colorado, lower crime rates, increased tax revenue, thousands of new jobs and continuing public support will indicate legalizing and regulating marijuana is one of the simplest ways to improve not just our criminal justice system, but our state governments generally.” Thousands of jobs and improved government? Both “Reefer Madness” alarmists and pot-Valhalla enthusiasts embrace hyperbole. Data will give us the good, the bad and

the predictable. First, the bad: There are more people driving stoned, according to the Washington State Patrol. In the first six months after Initiative 502 took effect, 745 drivers pulled over by cops tested positive for THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. More than half of those surpassed Washington’s intoxication threshold of 5 nanograms per milliliter of blood. In each of the last two years before legalization, the number was around 1,000. Experts will quibble: Are there more stoned drivers or more cops attentive to the signs? There will be pot revenue and, much to the surprise of skeptics, the feds will allow the state to collect it. According to

the Economic and Revenue Forecast Council, the figure is $51 million for the 2015-17 biennium and $138.5 million the following biennium. That’s real money, but it’s just a blip in fully funding K-12. Legal dope or no, human nature remains unchanged, which means bird-dogging profit-oriented retailers is essential. Hefty costs may fuel the existing black market. There will be bumps along the way. Most Northwesterners don’t smoke pot, but those who do are mostly white. The disproportionate number of people of color prosecuted for weed will now, we assume, plummet. The data will tell us. The pot genie is out of the bottle.

Give salaries to health district There’s an interesting sequential coincidence in the Local section of the Sunday Herald. Following the article about the raises of the elected county officials, is Dr. Goldbaum’s guest commentary about the importance and financial desperation of the health district. I can’t imagine why the County Council and executive are deserving of such large salaries to begin with, and would suggest that they either contribute at least half of their salaries to the health district, or to the cost of the lawsuit pending on the new courthouse.

■■SNOHOMISH COUNTY

Tax news should halt pay raises Sunday’s Herald reports Snohomish County has begun refunding $5 million in property taxes already collected; $106 million in current taxable properties will be removed from the tax rolls. School and fire districts will experience resultant shortfalls, and pay raises for county officials have been recommended. Previous Herald reports state the county is proceeding with a new courthouse. Owners of taxable properties still on the tax rolls will, no doubt, be required to make up refunds and shortfalls, and will be required to fund a new courthouse and any county pay raises. Seems to me that the county should scrub proceeding with a new courthouse and pay raises until after recovery from refunds, shortfalls and tax roll/ digest adjustments. If I am mistaken, an explanation as to how and why would be appreciated. Succinct deductive reasoning would be a big plus. Ed Pearce Marysville

The following insights were offered in the Sunday letter titled “His blame game harming the country”: 1) “Every time I look in my paper or listen to the news, I see another crisis engineered by the current occupant of the White House, so he can have something else to blame on the Republicans. 2) “It is obvious that he is doing his very best to destroy the country.” It seems extremely improbable (and impractical) to me that the president has “engineered” any crisis.

Killing of Jewish boy wasn’t news? An ugly dog wins a contest. That’s news. A wolverine spotted in Utah is news. Police look for DUIs is front-page news! An adorable, freckled-faced 16-year-old redhead with braces from Brooklyn is murdered in cold blood by Arab terrorists. Not one line in the Herald. If it were an Arab teenager killed by an Israeli you can bet it would make the paper. If Israel retaliates for the murdered American teenager and his two Israeli friends kidnapped on their way home from school and mercilessly slaughtered for no other reason but that they were Jews, you’d be calling the Israelis Nazis or worse. If Israel ever did adopt Nazi tactics and destroyed one Arab village for every Jewish life lost, then maybe, unlike Rodney Dangerfield, they’d finally get some respect. At least they’d get news coverage from the Everett Herald. Jewish life has always been cheap. I’m not so much disturbed by the press’s anti-Israel attitude. After all anti-semitism has been alive and well for over 2,000 years. It’s not the journalistic hostility towards Israel that enrages me, it’s the utterly callous indifference!

■■NORTH EVERETT

Nuisance motels need addressing This letter is being written partially in sadness and partially in disbelief in my city. I have lived in north Everett all of my 51 years. I take pride in my home, neighborhood and city. I do not take pride in what I see happening, however. North Everett is home to the highly regarded EvCC and state-of-the-art Providence hospital. However, driving down Broadway to get to these institutions, you pass by two motels boarded up and closed due to drug and prostitution activity. On 13th street, you see another motel that has constant drug activity, resulting in daily visits from the Everett Police department. Friday night, there was a tremendous fire at this motel due to illegal fireworks being set off in their parking lot. We had to run out to quickly move our vehicles due to burning embers coming across the street. The owner of this business was, and is, well aware of the illegal activities, and has told the neighbors that “it’s his property, he can do what he wants.” Hmm, seems how this is a business using my tax dollars to fund the many police and fire calls there, isn’t this my business? Isn’t it the city of Everett’s business to make all neighborhoods safe? I plead to our mayor, city council and Everett residents to take care of these issues. We’re all in this together.

NSA’s haystack

ASHINGTON — Even those who believe the National Security Agency’s vacuum-cleaner surveillance of electronic communications does not trample privacy rights should be troubled by this practical implication: If you try to know everything, you end up knowing nothing. An investigation by The Washington Post, which examined a cache of intelligence reports provided by fugitive NSA contractor Edward Snowden, illustrates my point. The agency is gathering and warehousing enormous amounts of private information, most of it irrelevant because it concerns innocent individuals — mostly foreigners, but some U.S. citizens as well. By “innocent,” I mean the NSA is convinced these people have no involvement with any activity that poses a threat. But the agency keeps their information anyway. Reporter Barton Gellman, researcher Julie Tate and security consultant Ashkan Soltani spent four months analyzing more than 160,000 text messages, emails, social network exchanges and other communications sucked in by the NSA’s programs. The material Snowden provided was associated with roughly 11,400 individuals, perhaps half of them Americans. Of those whose EUGENE ROBINSON lives were rummaged through, only 11 percent are identified by the NSA as targets who warrant surveillance. This means that about nine out of 10 just happened to be snagged in the NSA’s net. It is important to clarify that I’m not talking about content-free metadata, such as the NSA’s controversial log of domestic calls. These are actual emails, texts, conversations and social media posts that the NSA gathered under programs known as PRISM and Upstream. The Post reported that the content includes “stories of love and heartbreak, illicit sexual liaisons, mental-health crises, political and religious conversions, financial anxieties and disappointed hopes.” It’s also important to note that the 11 percent deemed legitimate targets included some people I definitely want our spies to be watching. The Post said the surveillance records it examined included information that led to the captures of a Pakistan-based terrorist bomb-maker and a suspect in an Indonesian bomb attack. Other successes were withheld by government officials’ request. Perhaps these cases could have been cracked by means other than mass surveillance. Perhaps not. My point is not that this surveillance is incapable of helping authorities apprehend genuine terrorists. I just believe the snooping should be more targeted — and clearly irrelevant information about innocent people should be quickly erased. The NSA seeks something like omniscience regarding electronic communications. But it is not enough to have a crucial tidbit of information stored on a server somewhere. For that information to be useful, it has to be identifiable and accessible. The more indiscriminately you amass data, the harder it is to find the relevant bits. The NSA’s position is essentially that the bigger the haystack it can gather, the more needles it can find. But given the ever-increasing volume of electronic communications around the world, what sense does it make for the NSA to clutter its data banks with information about people — foreign and domestic — who pose no threat? Retaining this material, apparently for up to five years, is not just an invasion of the targets’ privacy but also a waste of the NSA’s capacity for storage and analysis. If NSA officials are so confident they can manage the unimaginably vast quantities of data the agency is assembling, then why have they repeatedly given public assurances that Snowden — whom they frequently describe as a lowly analyst — had no access to the kind of sensitive data he gave to the Post? Does the agency really have any idea of what is already in its databases? Does the NSA know who might be sifting through this material? And for what purposes? These NSA programs are designed to snoop on foreigners. Snowden has expressed the view that citizens of other countries have privacy rights, too. You don’t have to agree with him to wonder why the emails of, say, a German college professor or an insurance salesman in Brazil should not be purged once the material is determined irrelevant. Snowden also believes there are threats. He gave the information to the Post with the understanding that nothing would be published that could harm U.S. national security or endanger lives. Indeed, the paper withheld details about “a secret overseas nuclear project, double-dealing by an ostensible ally, a military calamity that befell an unfriendly power, and the identities of aggressive intruders into U.S. computer networks.” Investigate that stuff, NSA. Stop wasting time and effort on people who mean us no harm.

Park From Page A1

“I have a trunkful of donated paint,” Roig said. Last week, Mayor Leonard Kelley stopped by to check in. If the project is successful, the city may approve a similar mural for another park, he said. The depth of the work is slowly emerging on the plywood. There is a heart made of curlicues, an imposing dragon, flowers and finches, turtles and angels. Each teen contributed to the design, their earlier sketches lined up on poster boards set on chairs. On July 2, Natasha Wilcoxen, 15, was filling in the details of a tree, its bark the gray of a stormy sea. Her sketches included a “big sister,” a robot-like guardian to protect children, playing on a swing. She drew a lantern, to light up darkness.

Kayli Rodgers, 17, worried about her yellowand-purple finch, if the wings matched the body in size. She sketched elaborate hummingbirds, poised over petals. Her work is delicate, like her subjects. “I really like drawing flowers and animals and nature and swirly things,” she said. Nick Platt and Ellie Nowak, both 18, just graduated high school. Platt helped the other students decide which cans of paint to open and mix. “I just think it was a wonderful opportunity to get involved with the community,” Platt said. “It was positive and uplifting.” A murmur of excitement crossed the room when some of the girls found glitter paint. The dragon’s scales, they whispered. Platt is tasked with the dragon’s head. Together, the teens brainstormed the theme of the mural, with concepts of strength and personal growth, Platt said. “It’s going through struggles and getting up to a point where you realize

you have self-empowerment, and you go through a transformation,” he said. “At the end of the mural, you have a voice. You can say what you want. You have an opinion.” Nowak kicked off her shoes. She’s drawing hands that curl out from the gnarled tree. She likes drawings hands. It challenges her. “It’s a realistic thing. It can go so easily wrong,” she said. “Proportions are everything, or it’s not going to look like a hand.” The design in the mural moves from black-andwhite into color, from left to right. “It represents confusion, and how you have not yet found the color within yourself,” said Jordyn Corey, 17. “It shows the starting point in your life, the blacks and whites fading into these bright, vibrant colors you create for yourself.” Meanwhile, volunteers have work parties planned at Church Creek Park in July and August. They are going to weed and clean. City crews also are working

on the park. The mural unveiling is set for Aug. 16. The time is not final, yet. One of the young people has suggested live music for the event, Hawkins said.

The resource center has a portable stage the volunteers can borrow. Hawkins figures if the community can be involved and take part in something like a park cleanup, they will

feel pride and ownership in the work. That makes others less likely to want to cause damage. The mural is not a cureall, the chief said. It’s a first step.

Youth club: ‘The city would get a lot out of a partnership’ From Page A3

meeting tonight. The council is expected to decide whether to continue exploring the option. The club tailors the type of activities it provides for young people to the needs in each community. Because Mill Creek has a strong youth baseball program, its club would likely offer different activities. “They tend to try to compliment or supplement what the local community provides rather than compete with it,” City Manager Ken Armstrong said. “They do provide a very valuable service, especially when both parents are working.”

The other cities and nonprofits that have partnered with the Boys & Girls Club of Snohomish County have brought land, money or a building to the table, Tsoukalas said. Mill Creek is off to a good start with the land offering, he said. The property west of the Bothell-Everett Highway is some of the last remaining undeveloped space in the central part of the city. Armstrong intends to caution the City Council to consider the best use of the land before giving the club a go. Other options include selling the property for residential or commercial development and expanding the existing sports complex, he said.

If the Boys & Girls Club gets the green light, the nonprofit would likely build a new recreation center in Mill Creek. The city does not have an existing building the nonprofit could use. Unless a private partner steps up with space, the club would have to build a clubhouse. The nonprofit’s buildings typically boast at least 18,000-square-feet. Boys & Girls Clubs usually include a gymnasium, a teen center and multipurpose areas, Tsoukalas said. Because the nonprofit is a private organization, it is able to build at lower cost than the city. Tsoukalas estimates the Mill Creek club would cost

$1.5 million to $2 million, depending on the size and the equipment inside. “The city would get a lot out of a partnership,” Armstrong said. “There’s definitely an efficiency that can be realized by having the private sector involved.” If the Boys & Girls Club decides to build in Mill Creek, Armstrong said, the city could build a lighted, multi-use, all-season sports field nearby. That way, the nonprofit could help cover costs for features, such as a parking lot, concession stand and restrooms. The price of building a field remains unclear, Armstrong said. Several years ago the city got an estimate

of about $9 million to build two fields. Since then, it has been talking about splitting the cost of a $2.4 million synthetic-turf soccer field at Jackson High with the Everett School District. But the project has taken a backseat since voters turned down the district’s bond measure twice this year. “We’re pretty content to let it sit on the backburner for now,” Armstrong said. “Exploring this option with the Boys & Girls Club needs to run its course.” The nonprofit has to have pledges for donations before it can begin construction. Other Boys & Girls Club projects, including those in Mukilteo and

Arlington, have faced long wait times. Tsoukalas said it usually takes one to two years to raise the money, and another year to build a club. The Snohomish Boys & Girls Club, however, was done in about a year. “It depends on the community and how quickly they want it to happen,” Tsoukalas said. “We don’t have a pot of gold.” Most of the money comes from donations from individuals, he said. Corporate and foundation support follows. “Most people think it’s the other way around,” Tsoukalas said. “It used to be but it’s not anymore.” Amy Nile: 425-339-3192; anile@heraldnet.com.

Test your nutrition label IQ

ating a healthy diet can help you ward off heart disease, cancer and other ailments. The nutrition facts panel on food labels provides a lot of information you can use to choose healthier products. But how much of the nutritional fine print do you actually need to understand? Well, I think it certainly helps to know the basics. For instance, maybe you’re interested in the salt content of canned tomatoes you use to make your favorite soup or pasta sauce. Or perhaps you’re concerned about the fat content of frozen pizza you bake for a party. Either way, having the ability to navigate the food label helps you quickly compare different brands. Looking on the back or side of each product’s package is usually the best place to start. Learn how knowledgeable you are about food labels with this quiz. 1. A nutrition facts panel is required on all these items in your shopping cart except for which one? a. A bag of baked bread b. A box of raw pasta c. A tin of canned tuna d. A bag of raw carrots 2. What is the first thing you should look for on a food label? a. Number of servings b. Serving size c. Calories d. Total fat 3. The total number of calories are displayed on every package. True or false? 4. What does the “Daily Value” of a nutrient on a food label mean? a. Amount of nutrient recommended each day b. Amount of nutrient consumed each day c. Serving size of each nutrient d. Serving size of recommended nutrients 5. Ingredients on a food label are listed in descending order by weight. True or false? Answers 1. d. A nutrition facts panel must be displayed on the label of packaged and canned foods sold in grocery stores. Exceptions include raw fruits, vegetables, meat, poultry and fish, which are not required to provide nutritional information. 2. b. The serving size is based on the amount people commonly eat of that food. It’s usually fairly similar among products in the same category. The importance of serving size is that amounts for calories, fat and other nutrients listed on the nutrition facts panel are all based on a single serving. So, for example, if you’re planning to eat two servings, you will need to multiply the nutrient amounts by two. 3. False. The calories listed are for a single serving. If a single serving contains 150 calories, and the package contains two servings, eating the entire package will give you 300 calories — not just the 150 calories you thought you consumed. You will find the servings per container located near the top of the nutrition See SMOOTS, Page B5

The pool quandary When is the right time to teach children to swim? By Jill U. Adams Special To The Washington Post

Playing in the water is a great way to beat the heat. And yet every year, kids drown. From 1999 to 2010, nearly 14,000 Americans age 19 and younger drowned, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Forty percent of those cases were among children ages 1 to 4, and at least half of those deaths occurred in swimming pools. The good news is that the rate of accidental drowning has decreased in recent decades. This trend may reflect the more widespread adoption of preventive strategies such as pool fencing and swimming lessons. But as swimming programs — including those for children as young as 6 months — proliferate, a difficult question remains: At what age is it ideal for children to take swim lessons? Kids won’t really become competent swimmers until age 6 or 7, says Terri Lees, who is a Red Cross instructor trainer and sits on the organization’s Scientific Advisory Council. But it’s a slow progression, she says. “Just like a child slowly progresses from immobile to walking over

Show your true colors at Lake Stevens fun run By Andrea Brown Herald Writer

Come in your pajamas. Don’t worry, be happy. Go at your own pace. The rules of this 5K fun run are to dye for. Saturday’s Run or Dye in Lake Stevens, billed as a celebration of life, friendship and fitness, is for all walks of life. Runners become part of the rainbow. Through the course, they get showered in cornstarch-based powdered dye and cross the finish line in the middle of a color storm. The first wave of color-blasting begins at 9 a.m. in downtown Lake Stevens, 1812 Main St., with participants taking off in waves over the next 45 minutes. There is a shuttle station at Lake Stevens

months,” so starting at 4 or 5 can be helpful, she says. Also, parent-and-baby classes offer the opportunity for parents to hear water safety messages that may help protect their children. Concerns have been raised that kids who take lessons too early might develop a false sense of security around water and therefore be more in danger of drowning than kids who don’t. The American Association of Pediatrics says children can safely take swim lessons as early as age 1. Until 2010, the AAP had specified this number as age 4, but when research showed a reduced risk of drowning in preschoolers who had taken swimming lessons, the organization amended its advice. Survival programs such as the Infant Swimming Resource and Infant Aquatics promise to teach children as young as 6 months how to maneuver themselves so they are floating on their backs. You can watch babies doing just this on the companies’ Web sites. The videos can be disturbing to watch, if only because seeing babies underwater is unsettling. See SWIM, Page B5

Raising kids who aren’t bullies

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion. Dear Carolyn: With all the bullying in the news these days, I’m wondering (as the mom of a 15-month-old) if you have any advice for raising children who don’t bully, and don’t allow others to bully them. — Wondering Sure, I’ll dash that off in 500 words. It’s a great and sweeping and relevant question, so I’ll try to assemble a couple of coherent thoughts. (1) Even if we figure out the exact answer, your child will be on the giving and receiving end of meanness. There’s no avoiding it altogether. “Best Friends, Worst Enemies,” Thompson/ O’Neill-Grace/Cohen, which I recommend often, is very clear and reassuring on this. Kids have to learn how to get along just as they have to learn to walk, and the process isn’t pretty sometimes. (2) How are you at tightrope walking? To raise kids who don’t bully, you need to supervise carefully and correct as needed, like when they say mean things to people’s faces or behind their backs: “Hey — how would you feel if someone said that to/about you?” To raise kids who don’t allow others to bully them, you need to teach your kids to assert themselves instead of your doing it for them all the time. It’s a

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT constant balancing and rebalancing act as they grow, but it hinges on learning to step in only when their own defenses aren’t strong enough to protect them (with abusive relatives, for example). Bonus, you don’t know whether you’ve gotten it right till it’s almost too late to do anything about it. And, different kids/temperaments/personalities need different balances. (3) Another kind of balance matters, too — between their feeling important to you, and their not being misled into thinking they’re the center of the earth. Your home needs to be a safe place for them to express their feelings and try new things (which will include trying on the idea of being mean to you — good times) and to be significant, but you also need to be the boss. And, the wide wide world, where they are but a small speck, also needs to feature in their education. They need to get out, see others unlike them, give of themselves

Re: Bullying Also important is the behavior you model for your kids. There are so many subtle ways people “bully” others. Many families have a member who is “teased” constantly.

Scrapbooks will be cherished by friends

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Abby: May I comment about the question from “Unsure in the West” (April 6), who wanted to create scrapbooks out of all the cards and letters she received over the years? My generation (30s) is all about social media. “Unsure” mentioned that all the items she wanted to include were pre-Facebook. I am a bit old-fashioned (or maybe stubborn) so I don’t do Facebook or Twitter, and I don’t understand the importance of a “hashtag.” I have no idea how to Skype, nor do I pay my bills online. I think the scrapbook idea is wonderful. There is something special about having tangible items to go along with important milestones and memories. Even if the gifts themselves don’t strike a chord with her friends, surely the consideration and time she puts into the scrapbooks will make her loved ones realize how important they are to her. I say, proceed with confidence. Your friends are lucky to have you. — L.K. In The Midwest Dear L.K.: Like you, readers overwhelmingly support “Unsure” in her efforts to create scrapbooks of memories for her friends. Read on: Dear Abby: I have also saved cards, letters, wedding photos and pictures of newborns, etc., for several decades. A few years ago, I simply returned them to the people who had sent them. Nearly all of the recipients squealed with delight as they thanked me, having realized I had gifted them with “time capsules” of their lives. Only one friend was offended that I had returned her items. She said she was “appalled” that I didn’t

DEAR ABBY cherish them myself. The joy expressed by the others superseded the angry friend. “Unsure,” return those items to the senders! — Linda In Indiana Dear Abby: I did the same thing with photos. But instead of returning them to the person(s) who gave them to me, I gave them to the children who were pictured in the photos. Others I saved and presented to the nowgrown child’s spouse as a wedding gift. So far they have been well-received. Most people are surprised to learn that I actually kept all these photos of them or their children for so long and appreciated the effort I put into the scrapbooks. — Memory Keeper Dear Abby: I am not a crafter and I’m not very sentimental. I don’t enjoy what I consider clutter. As I’ve grown older, I have done my best to pare down and eliminate things I no longer have use for. I have embraced technology. If “Unsure” were my friend, I would appreciate it more if she scanned anything she wanted to give back to me. Either way, I would probably view the scrapbook or e-book, and then deepsix it after the viewing. It crossed my mind that perhaps “Unsure” is cleaning out, and this is her way of getting rid of her “clutter.” — Maureen In Florida Universal Uclick

Lynnwood man competes on TV dance show By Gale Fiege Herald Writer

Casey Askew played a lot of sports as a child. You can see it in the athleticism of his contemporary dance style. Askew, 19, of Lynnwood, is among this summer’s top 20 contestants on Fox TV’s 11th season of “So You Think You Can Dance.” The show airs at 8 p.m. Wednesdays. Between rehearsals last week, Askew took a few minutes to talk on the phone. The Meadowdale High School graduate began dancing at age 8, studying first at the former Camille’s Dance Edge studio in

Lynnwood. “I think having played sports as a kid actually helped me in my dance career,” Askew said. “Strength training is definitely part of it.” By the time he was in high school, Askew was flying to Los Angeles each weekend to study dance. “It was really hard to fly

out on Friday evenings and fly back early on Mondays with just enough time to make it to class,” Askew said. “I did a lot of homework on those plane rides and I missed out on a lot of things that most people enjoy about high school.” But the effort was important, Askew said. The stint on Fox this summer isn’t his first TV show. Askew appeared previously on a Disney channel dance competition as well. Askew said he has an ability to physically connect to music in a way that some other dancers do not. He is trained in hip hop, ballet, jazz, lyrical and ballroom dance. “For ‘So You think You

Choreographed by Travis Wall, their routine was set to the John Legend song “All of Me.” It drew praise from judges Mary Murphy and Nigel Lythgoe as well as guest judge Jason Derulo. This week, one woman and one man will be eliminated from the dance competition. “Keep watching,” Askew said. “I hope everyone back home will keep watching.” Gale Fiege: 425-339-3427; gfiege@heraldnet.com.

Pool: How to choose the right program for your child From Page B1

The lessons can present an emotional hurdle for parents, says Michael Middleton, a pediatrician in Orlando. Hundreds of his patients have taken survival swimming lessons, as have his own children. â€œThis is not water enjoyment. The child is being forced to do something theyâ€™re not comfortable

facts panel. 4. a. After each nutrient, a â€œPercent Daily Valueâ€? is listed. This number tells you the percentage of the recommended daily amount of a nutrient that is contained in a single serving of that food. Itâ€™s calculated based on the needs of an average adult on a 2,000 calorie diet. For fiber, vitamins and minerals, most people will benefit from foods with a high Percent Daily Value. For fat, saturated fat, cholesterol and sodium, most will want to choose foods with a low Percent Daily Value.

doing,â€? Middleton says. But itâ€™s worth it, he says, especially in places where water is ubiquitous. When to start swimming lessons depends in part on your child and your family, says Julie Gilchrist, a medical epidemiologist with the Centers for Disease Control and Preventionâ€™s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control.

Is your child emotionally and physically ready for swim lessons? Does your family spend a lot of time near water or on a boat, or is there a pond on your property? Choosing a program comes with its own set of questions, beginning with a look at pool temperature and quality. One risk of swimming is what the professionals

call recreational water illness. Children who swim are exposed to a host of pathogenic germs, and babies in particular tend to swallow the water theyâ€™re swimming in. Also, water that is too cold is not good for babies, Gilchrist says. â€œYou have to watch out for hypothermia.â€? Class size and level of supervision also is

important. American Red Cross lessons have no more than 10 students per instructor, Lees says. With younger children or less experienced instructors, a lower ratio is better. A lifeguard should be on duty during a class, she says. â€œThe teacher cannot also act as a lifeguard.â€? As for teaching style, look for encouragement, not pressure or coercion,

Gilchrist says. â€œAre kids pushed to do things they donâ€™t want to do?â€? Lessons for kids too young to swim should include safety skills such as controlled breathing and floating on oneâ€™s back, Gilchrist says. Also, parent-and-baby classes should cover risk awareness and safety measures that parents can take to keep their kids safe.

Nutrition: Magicâ€™s in ingredients From Page B1

Iâ€™m not a baker,â€? he said as he placed two handfuls of stemless carrot leaves and one handful of parsley into a food processor. â€œItâ€™s about a two to one ratio. And throw in as much garlic as you like.â€? Into the whirling mixture, he drizzled olive oil. Then a small handful of cashew nuts. Cashew nuts in pesto? â€œYou can use any kind of nut you have on hand,â€? he explained. I like this guy. After adding freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a dash of salt for

seasoning, we watched intently as he gently spread the bright pesto onto a thin slice of just-toasted French bread. Next came a dollop of creamy soft burrata cheese (â€œricotta-stuffed mozzarellaâ€?) topped with two halves of oven-roasted baby tomatoes. A blingbling of mellowy-sweet balsamic vinegar and we were all in love. On to grilled Romaine lettuce wrapped with prosciutto ham and garnished with a tapenade of scallions, olives and tomatoes. Then fennel soup, made creamy and smooth with pureed chick peas (garbanzo beans). Yum.

â€œNow we are going to do a really weird dish,â€? he announced as he wrapped softened Swiss chard leaves around a garlic-stuffed, mushroomentombed lamb chop. He held his creation together with â€œcaul fatâ€? â€” a thin stretchy membrane from a cowâ€™s stomach that bakes off in the oven. â€œI call it â€˜chefâ€™s duct tape,â€™â€? he explained. This elegant dish was served with â€œsquash ballsâ€? â€” zucchini scooped out with a melon baller and lightly sauteed in olive oil. Garnished with pureed â€œTruffled Carrot Coulis.â€? For dessert,

rosemary-infused honey yogurt with flambeed strawberries. Mama mia. â€œGourmetâ€? is described as â€œfood of the highest quality and flavor, prepared well and presented in an artful manner.â€? Yes, it was. To all his praises, Chef Colin humbly concluded, â€œA note about perfection: Itâ€™s all in your head.â€? And in really good ingredients.

Yedlin’s time with Sounders coming to an end

“My dream is to play pro baseball on the highest stage and to do it successfully,” he said. “And they say that if you have a jersey in the minor leagues, you have a chance.” Wolfe’s UW career ended back in early June when the Huskies were eliminated from the NCAA tournament at a regional in Oxford, Miss. Five days later he was chosen in the 20th round of the baseball draft by the Los Angeles Dodgers. An outfielder and first baseman, he signed his contract and was assigned to Ogden, where he arrived seven days after the draft. “In one week,” he said, “I went from being a college student-athlete to moving out of my apartment and getting it all cleaned up, and then to living in a new state.” Wolfe, who got a signing bonus of “a few thousand (dollars),” now lives in the basement of a host family’s home. “It’s a nice setup,” he said. “And the family is great.” The players typically arrive at the ballpark early in the afternoon and work out for several hours before playing that night. “Each game is kind of like an all-day event,” he said, “and that’s kind of where the grind comes from.” Though Wolfe was an offensive force for the Huskies — he batted a league-best .383 in Pac-12 games, and was an all-conference

UKWILA — As he sat at the CenturyLink Field Events Center watching the U.S. national team lose to Belgium last week, Sigi Schmid watched the World Cup game primarily as a fan. The Sounders coach also watched the game, and in particular the standout play of young right back DeAndre Yedlin, and had something of an “Uh-oh” thought pop into his head. As quickly as Yedlin was running past Belgians up the right flank, he was also accelerating the timeline on what now feels like an inevitable departure from Seattle. “The thought sort of briefly went through my mind,” Schmid admitted. Yedlin was back practicing with the Sounders on Monday, but now you can’t help but wonder how much longer he’ll be wearing rave green. Reports out of both Italy and the U.S. have the Sounders close to a transfer deal with AS Roma that would send Yedlin to the Italian club after the 2014 season. While both Yedlin and the Sounders aren’t confirming any move, nobody is saying it isn’t happening. In fact Schmid at one point talked as if Yedlin was already leaving when discussing why a young MLS star would head overseas. “Why does Pau Gasol play in the NBA, why does (Manu) Ginobili play in the NBA? Because the league is better than their leagues in their home countries,” Schmid said. “There are going to be certain players where the right thing to do is to go overseas, because they can deal with that opportunity. Players have done it in the past — Clint Dempsey has done it and Michael Bradley has done it, and now they’ve come back, and at some point he’ll come back as well. It just means the opening he creates means somebody else will be able to take advantage of an opportunity. You have to do what’s right for the player, and the player is always trying to play at the highest level he can play at.” Maybe it was just a slip-up by Schmid to say “at some point he’ll come back” as if Yedlin was already gone, but it could also be that the Sounders coach

Brian Wolfe, who played at Snohomish High School and the University of Washington, was a 20th-round draft pick by the Dodgers in the June draft and after signing, was assigned to the Ogden Raptors of the Class A Pioneer League.

Life in the minors

Wolfe makes the adjustment from college to pro baseball By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

A few weeks ago, Brian Wolfe was enjoying the good life as a member of an elite college baseball program. Among other things, Wolfe’s University of Washington team traveled by air on road trips around the Pacific-12 Conference and elsewhere in the country. Then Wolfe signed a professional baseball contract and, well, life changed. These days, Wolfe plays for the Ogden Raptors of the eight-team Class A Pioneer League, which includes teams in Montana, Idaho, Colorado and Utah. After a recent 14-inning game in Grand Junction, Colo., the Raptors boarded their bus at midnight for the five-hour drive back to Ogden. Unable to nod off in his seat, “I just laid on the floor of the bus and tried to sleep,” Wolfe said. Ah, such is life in baseball’s low minor leagues. As Wolfe pointed out, “it’s not nearly as fancy or as glamorous as a Division I Pac12 school. It’s definitely an adjustment. But the game’s still the same. It’s still baseball.” For Wolfe, a 2009 graduate of Snohomish High School, the deprivations and occasional hardships are simply part of a journey that will, perhaps in time, help him realize a dream. Like hundreds of other young ballplayers around the country, including a few

Judge approves NFL concussion settlement Associated Press A federal judge on Monday granted preliminary approval to a landmark deal that would compensate thousands of former NFL players for concussion-related claims. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Anita Brody in Philadelphia came about two weeks after the NFL agreed to remove a $675 million cap on damages. Brody had previously questioned whether that would be enough money to pay all claims. “A class action settlement that offers prompt relief is superior to the likely alternative — years of expensive, difficult, and uncertain litigation, with no assurance of recovery, while retired players’ physical and mental conditions continue to deteriorate,” Brody wrote. More than 4,500 former players have filed suit, some accusing the league of fraud for its handling of concussions. They include former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Dorsett and Super Bowl-winning Chicago Bears quarterback Jim McMahon, who suffers from dementia. The settlement is designed to last at least 65 years and give $1 million or more to retirees who develop Lou Gehrig’s disease and other profound neurological problems. “This is an extraordinary settlement for retired NFL players and their families — from those who suffer with neuro-cognitive illnesses today, to those who are currently healthy but fear they may develop symptoms decades into the future,” plaintiffs’ attorneys Sol Weiss and Christopher Seeger said in a statement. NFL senior vice president Anastasia Danias said in a statement that the league was “grateful to Judge Brody for her guidance and her thoughtful analysis of the issues as reflected in the comprehensive opinion she issued today.”

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig signed his six-year, $42 million deal when he was 21. Now, the most the Dodgers will pay him in any single season is $9.2 million for 2018. Puig was named to the National League All-Star team on Sunday.

The price is right Contracts of All-Stars Trout, Puig and Altuve rank among MLB’s best values By Barry Svrluga The Washington Post

ans always seem to act as if their favorite team is spending their own money when they sign players to lucrative long-term deals. In a way, that’s not crazy, because bad deals extended over a period of years can cripple franchises from pursuing more talent or locking up their own players. It’s someone’s money, and there’s always a limit to it. So we have here, in this week leading up to the All-Star Game, a look at some of the “best” contracts in baseball — in a world in which “best” is loosely defined as “team-friendly,” because a good player signed for cheap allows that team to pursue more good players. This isn’t a science, and we’re not just picking the lowestsalaried, good player at each position. Venturing into these waters requires some understanding of baseball’s salary structure. Generally, during a player’s first three years in the majors, the team simply assigns a player his salary — usually the minimum of $500,000, with slight bumps for service time each year. Players are eligible for arbitration in years four through six, and barring signing a long-term deal can become free agents after six major league seasons. So the choices here are skewed toward those players who signed long-term deals long before they were eligible for free agency — and in some cases, long before they were even eligible for the major raises that come through the arbitration process, when players are paid salaries directly in line with those who have comparable stats and service time. The players listed here generally traded the potential for millions of (more) dollars in the future for security, protecting against injury and poor performance. And their teams have enjoyed plenty of bang for their bucks.

C Jonathan Lucroy, Brewers Milwaukee signed its 28-yearold backstop to a five-year, $10.28-million deal following his first full season in the majors. Now, given that Lucroy has 30 doubles in 2014 and leads all catchers with a .333 average and .924 OPS, it looks like a steal for the Brewers.

1B Paul Goldschmidt, D-backs Goldschmidt is making $1.1 million in the second season of his five-year, $32-million deal, signed following his rookie year. For this Arizona gets a

league-leading 32 doubles, a .306 average and a .938 OPS that is tops among N.L. first basemen. Even when the deal maxes out — Goldschmidt will make $11.1 million in 2017, his sixth full major league season — it figures to be a bargain for the Diamondbacks, as long as Goldschmidt remains healthy.

2B Jose Altuve, Astros Houston has been at the forefront of trying to tie up prospects to long, club-friendly deals that offer, in return, security for players even if they get injured or don’t produce. Their four-year, $12.5-million pact with Altuve, signed last July, led the way. Now, the 24-year-old leads the AL with a .338 average and 38 stolen bases in a season in which he’s making $1.25 million. Yes, that’s two seasons before he would have become eligible for arbitration had he not signed his deal.

3B Todd Frazier, Reds The best young performers at this position — Frazier, the Athletics’ Josh Donaldson, the Indians’ Lonnie Chisenhall — haven’t yet signed extensions, so this is a bit of a cop-out. Frazier is making $600,000 on his one-year, team-dictated contract and won’t be eligible for arbitration until next season. But he’ll be due a big raise then. His .854 OPS leads all NL third basemen, as do his 17 homers.

SS Starlin Castro, Cubs Given Chicago’s trade with Oakland for shortstop prospect Addison Russell, how long Castro remains a Cub may be up for debate. But why would he be tradable? Because he is owed $43 million from 20152019, with a club option of $16 million for 2020, when he’ll be just 30. That’s a reasonable price for a player who appears to have bounced back from a subpar 2013 (.245/.284/.347) with 50 RBI already, having moved lower in the lineup.

LF Nelson Cruz, Orioles Yes, he serves as the designated hitter a lot. But this is actually an easy choice. Cruz received his one-year, $8-million deal from Baltimore only because he was damaged by his 50-game suspension following the Biogenesis fiasco last year. The return on that investment: an AL-leading 27 homers and 70 RBI. Think it’s a bad contract because Cruz will walk after this season? “I wish they were all one-year contracts,” one GM

said. The reason: Flexibility.

CF Mike Trout, Angels It is a measure of the respect Trout has engendered in just his third full major league season that he could be scheduled to make $33.25 million annually over the final three years of his contract — and people could still believe he will be underpaid. The full package: six years, $144.5 million. It sounds like a lot, and it is. But in his first two major league seasons, he has been the runner-up for the MVP award — to the dismay of the SABR community, who believe his 2012 and ‘13 were nothing short of historic.

RF Yasiel Puig, Dodgers This is a bit of an interesting one, because Los Angeles paid Puig $3.7 million to play in the minors for all of 2012. But Cuban free agents, of which Puig is one, are a different commodity. Unlike those from the rest of Latin America, they don’t sign at age 16. They are more fully formed, and when Puig defected to sign his six-year, $42 million deal, he was 21. Now, the most the Dodgers will pay him in any single season is $9.2 million for 2018. It’s hard to imagine that not being the best deal in baseball for a player who will be in his prime — and then they’ll still have a year of arbitration remaining for a player whose OPS in his first 187 major league games is .918.

SP Johnny Cueto, Reds Cincinnati signed the unique right-hander to a four-year, $27-million deal in 2011, buying out all three of his arbitration seasons and one year of free agency, which happens to be 2014, when he is earning $10 million. Considering he is leading the NL in innings pitched and WHIP (0.868) to go along with a 1.99 ERA that is better than everyone not named Adam Wainwright (2014 salary: $19.5 million), this is a good deal for the Reds. But even better: Cincinnati holds a club option for 2015 at the same number, $10 million.

RP Sean Doolittle, Athletics There is no more volatile commodity in baseball than relief pitching, and there may be no more complicated deal than Doolittle’s five-year extension signed before this season. When that happened, Jim Johnson was supposed to be the closer in Oakland. But Johnson flamed out, and left-hander Doolittle now has 12 saves for one of baseball’s best teams. He also is guaranteed just $10.5 million from 2014-18.

PHOENIX — Bronson Arroyo had been one of baseball’s most gutsy pitchers, finding a way to take the mound no matter what was ailing him. Even after suffering a severe elbow injury in May, the Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander kept taking the ball, making six starts while fighting through the pain. When an MRI revealed a ligament in his elbow had torn away from the bone, Arroyo still tried to keep pitching before finally giving in. A player who had never been on the disabled list prior to this season, Arroyo will have Tommy John surgery within the next week or so, becoming the third Diamondbacks pitcher to undergo the ligament-replacement procedure this year. “I wanted to see if I could pitch on it without the ligament, because a few guys have done it,” Arroyo said on Monday. “Most of the guys were bullpen guys, so it was going to be tough to do. I fired it up the last three days, and I could throw 120 feet and I could probably go out there and pitch, but it just won’t come back fast enough. So I’d have to pitch every 10 days and take nine days to get it healthy. It just wasn’t going to work.” Signed by Arizona during the offseason, Arroyo had been one of baseball’s most durable pitchers, making 369 consecutive starts during 15 seasons with four teams. The 37-year-old got the season off to a slow start after suffering a back injury in spring training, but had seemingly rounded into form over the last month, pitching well despite the elbow injury. He was 7-4 with a 4.08 ERA in 14 starts. Arroyo said he believes the ligament tear came during a start against Washington in May, when he outpitched Stephen Strasburg in a complete-game victory. He continued to pitch after that and was still effective, using medication to fight the pain and deception to fight off hitters. Despite pitching with a torn ligament, Arroyo went 3-0 with a 2.95 ERA over his final three starts before going on the disabled list on June 16.

Bourn could miss a month CLEVELAND — Indians center fielder Michael Bourn could miss one month with a strained left hamstring. The team said an MRI taken on Monday confirmed a “mild to moderate” sprain and Bourn will miss at least three weeks. Bourn has had issues with the hamstring all season. He was placed on the 15-day disabled list Sunday. Bourn had surgery on the hamstring in October following his first season with Cleveland. He began this year on the DL after having a setback in spring training. Bourn was pulled from Saturday’s game against Kansas City after he reinjured his leg while scoring from second base in the eighth inning. He’s batting .267 with seven stolen bases and 37 runs scored in 66 games. Jason Kipnis will likely bat in the leadoff spot while Bourn is sidelined. Bourn signed a four-year, $48 million contract before last season.

Rangers make flurry of moves ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers sent struggling rookie outfielder Michael Choice to Class AAA Round Rock and preparing to use their 12th starting pitcher this season. Choice, who had a .177 average with eight homers, was demoted and infielder Donnie Murphy was designated for assignment Monday. The Rangers brought up righthanded reliever Roman Mendez and outfielder Jake Smolinski from Round Rock, and both had a chance for their major-league debut in the series opener against Houston.

Twins’ Nolasco injured SEATTLE — Twins right-hander Ricky Nolasco was sent back to Minnesota because of a sore right elbow. Nolasco is scheduled to have his elbow examined today and undergo an MRI. Twins assistant general manager Rob Antony said Nolasco (5-7) met with manager Ron Gardenhire on Monday before the series opener against the Seattle Mariners and told him he had felt pain all season. Antony said Nolasco believed he could pitch through the soreness, but he couldn’t get loose on Sunday and then allowed six runs in two innings against the New York Yankees. Nolasco, who agreed to a four-year contract with the Twins before this season, is 5-7 with a 5.90 ERA in 18 starts this season. Gardenhire said the Twins won’t make adjustments to the rotation until after Nolasco’s exam.

M’s Seager added to AL All-Star team By Todd Dybas The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Kyle Seager was leaving Babies R Us on Monday with his son, Crue, in one arm and a large package of diapers in the other, when his manager called. Down went the diapers. Seattle Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon wanted to be the first to inform Seager he would be participating in his first All-Star game July 15 at Target

Field in Minneapolis. Toronto third baseman Edwin Encarnacion landed on the 15-day disabled list because of quad strain over the weekend, opening a spot for Seager. “I was pretty excited,” Seager said of receiving the call. “It’s a dream come true. Everybody grows up ... you want to play in the big leagues, you want to be an All-Star. For that to happen is pretty special.” Boston manager John Farrell

selected Seager as the replacement, giving the Mariners three All-Stars. Seager joins second baseman Robinson Cano and starting pitcher Felix Hernandez as Seattle All-Stars. Seager’s All-Star nod comes from another sturdy season at the plate and in the field. After a woeful April when he hit .225, Seager has been able to raise his average to .274 going into Monday’s game. He has 13 home runs and 59 RBI, putting him on pace for

career-highs in each category. The last time the Mariners had three All-Stars in one season was 2011, when Hernandez was joined by rookie right-hander Michael Pineda and closer Brandon League. Neither Pineda or League are still with the organization. The last time Seattle had two All-Star position players in the same season was 2006 when Jose Lopez and Ichiro Suzuki received the honor.

TORONTO BLUE JAYS

Seager is just the third Mariners’ third baseman to be named an All-Star. Edgar Martinez was an All-Star in 1992 at the position, and Jim Presley made the team in 1986. This is the fifth time Hernandez has been named to the team. It’s the sixth time for Cano, which leaves Seager a couple veterans to tag along with. “I can basically be there like I am here: just kind of follow Cano around,” Seager said. “So, it will work out well.”

Morales didn’t want to return to Mariners By Todd Dybas The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Out for early batting practice Monday with the Minnesota Twins, former Seattle Mariner Kendrys Morales joked around with some of the Seattle bullpen. The Mariners tried three times to make Morales a member of this year’s team. Each time, it didn’t work. Seattle first offered Morales a three-year, $30 million contract last September. When that was declined, they offered the 2014 league-wide one-year qualifying offer of $14.1 million, which would tie his free agency to draft pick compensation. As did all of the free agents made qualifying offers last offseason, Morales turned it down. Morales eventually signed a one-year, pro-rated $12 million contract with Minnesota on June 8, despite the Mariners coming back at him again. “I knew it was going to be tough to look for another offer, or another job, but in my heart I just didn’t really want to come back here and be in the same spot ... I was taking his chances to see if something was better,” Morales said of hitting the open market through interpreter, and Twins bullpen coach, Bobby Cuellar. When asked why he declined the three-year offer, Morales didn’t get specific. “There really was a little bit of talk, but there wasn’t really any real discussion,” Morales said. As for the Mariners’ final push to sign him, Morales said there was a snag. “They were talking to me, but unfortunately my agent and whatever Seattle was talking about, there was some ... misunderstanding in the negotiation,” Morales said. The switch-hitting Morales had a hot start for Minnesota, but came into Monday with a .216 batting average and one home run in 102 at-bats. He hit .277 with 23 home runs and 80 RBI for the Mariners last season. Seattle is still in search of a right-handed power bat.

Derek Jeter, who spent summers with his grandparents in West Milford, N.J., grew up a Yankees’ fan.

Five teams passed on Jeter How the shortstop ended up with the Yankees By Steven Marcus Newsday

Derek Jeter’s yearning to wear pinstripes was born of childhood summers watching the New York Yankees. Though raised in Kalamazoo, Mich., Jeter spent much of the baseball season with his grandparents in West Milford, N.J. Jeter’s grandmother, Dorothy Connors, nurtured the child’s love of the team by making Yankee Stadium a frequent destination. Jeter’s dream reached fruition on June 1, 1992, when the Yankees selected the high school shortstop with the sixth pick in the first round of the amateur draft. Yes, five teams passed on Derek Jeter. And that was fine by him. “It’s all I’ve ever wanted,” he said this past week, “so I couldn’t picture anything else. It was perfect for how it worked out.” The Yankees held their collective breath 22 years ago, knowing they were sixth in line for the player they had targeted. “We were like, ‘Oh, God, if we feel this way about him, I’m sure other people do, too,’ “recalled Bill Livesey, the Yankees’ scouting director in 1992. More than two decades later, decision-makers from the teams that passed on the future Hall of Fame player looked back on that draft.

Short hops

They have a few regrets

Felix Hernandez has recorded 10 consecutive starts where he has pitched at least seven innings and allowed two or fewer runs. The streak is the second-longest by an American League pitcher dating back to 1974 when Gaylord Perry had an 11-start streak for the Indians. Left-handed start James Paxton (strained back muscle) will throw two innings in a simulated game today. ... The Mariners came into Monday 10-1 in Monday games. ... Mariners catcher John Buck turned 34 Monday.

“Five of us geniuses passed him over,” former Astros general manager Bill Wood said. Wood’s team had the first overall pick in 1992 and, despite the strong protestations of Astros scout and Hall of Fame pitcher Hal Newhouser, the Astros chose outfielder Phil Nevin. “Jeter is the story that never goes away,” Wood said. “God bless him, I love the career he’s had.”

Looking back July 8, 1994: Alex Rodriguez made his Major League debut as the starting shortstop against Boston. Rodriguez was 18 years, 11 months and 11 days old at the time. Later that night, the Mariners hit into the ninth unassisted triple play in major league history.

Picked before Jeter No. 1 Phil Nevin: Had a 12-year career but played in only 18 games for the Astros. “There are very few can’t-miss guys,” Nevin said. “And a lot

of those can’t-miss guys seem to miss all the time. I can sit down now and tell my kids I was drafted in front of a Hall of Famer.” No. 2. Paul Shuey: The Indians had the second pick and chose the University of North Carolina pitcher. “When I saw Derek Jeter, he had hurt his ankle pretty badly,” said former scouting director Mickey White, who had previously signed Manny Ramirez and Rob Dibble. “While I liked (Jeter), Shuey for me was kind of what we needed.” White added, “I wished I had seen Derek healthy.” No. 3: B.J. Wallace: The Montreal Expos took the Mississippi State and Barcelona Olympics star pitcher with the third pick. He had arm problems and never made it to the majors. No. 4. Jeffrey Hammonds: With the fourth pick, the Orioles took the Stanford outfielder. Then-Orioles scouting director Gary Nickels said, “We had had such great success with college players — Mike Mussina, Pete Harnisch, Ben McDonald — we were more orientated toward college people at that time. Jeter was our highest high school player at the time, but we liked Jeffrey Hammonds.” Nickels, now a scout with the Dodgers, might have picked himself a future Hall of Fame pitcher with the drafting of Clayton Kershaw seventh in 2006. Said Nickels, “You could go to any of those six teams and ask, ‘Do (you) feel anything?’ “ No. 5. Chad Mottola: The Reds had the fifth pick and it appeared everyone but the final decision-maker wanted Jeter. Gene Bennett, the scout who had discovered stars Barry Larkin, Paul O’Neill, Chris Sabo and Eric Davis was the most unnerved by the Reds bypassing Jeter. Bennett said he wanted Jeter and no one else, but the Reds chose outfielder Mottola. “I felt like I was going to have a heart attack,” Bennett said. “I was shocked when we didn’t take him. There were no words to use. The damage was done.” Bennett said he had Jeter work out as an outfielder in a

predraft gathering. “I’m telling you he looked like Willie Mays going after the ball,” he said. “Derek could have been a Hall of Famer in center field.” Bennett said Jeter told him he would play center if the Reds wanted Larkin to remain at shortstop. Bob Quinn, the Reds’ general manager at the time, said he left it up to scouting director Julian Mock to make the selection. “When the higher-ups start messing with the draft, they can mess it up royally,” Quinn said. “You have to leave it up to your scouting director and your scouts.” He said owner Marge Schott was not involved. “Marge,” he said, “wouldn’t have known a baseball player from a pogo stick.” Mock, 85, said, “Well, we had a Hall of Fame shortstop in the making (Larkin). We needed a power outfielder and that’s the reason we passed on him. As I look back now, I don’t know that (Jeter) would have ever made the big leagues with the Reds because he made quite a few errors (in the minors). A lot of people would bury a guy like that.” In Class A, Jeter made a South Atlantic League-record 56 errors in 1993. Jim Bowden, who was about to become the Reds’ new GM, added, “It was a bizarre twist of power. Marge Schott had Julian Mock report to her rather than to Bob Quinn. It was Julian’s draft. The decision was his. He had full power. Had she hired Gene Bennett as scouting director, Jeter would have been a Cincinnati Red.”

Final season Now, at the age of 40 and in his final season, the owner of five World Series rings has come full circle. Just as he was drafted sixth overall, he needs only 31 hits to move into sixth place on the career list after producing 3,400 of them through Sunday’s game. Jeter was asked if his career would have been the same if he had played elsewhere. He replied, “If I didn’t come here, would it be the same Yankees?”

Morales lumbered to third on Oswaldo Arcia’s double in the right-center gap. Chris Parmelee replaced Morales as a pinchrunner but had to hold on Chris Colabello’s grounder to third. Iwakuma stranded runners at second and third by striking out Sam Fuld on a full-count splitter. That prompted Iwakuma’s glove-pound. It was also his 10th strikeout, a season best. He allowed four hits and didn’t walk a batter while throwing 105 pitches. Saunders’ homer was a twoout drive to center in the seventh and came spiced with drama. Fuld made a leaping attempt at the wall — and it wasn’t initially clear whether he caught the ball or not as he fell to the ground. There was no signal, either, from second-base umpire Gabe Morales as Saunders hesitantly circled the bases. Eventually, though, Fuld got to his feet ... without the ball. Zunino’s homer, his 13th, was a one-out bomb in the second inning. Other than that, not much. James Jones snapped a 0-for-12 skid with a one-out single up the middle in the first inning. Correia then walked Robinson Cano on four pitches. It came to nothing. Corey Hart popped out, and Kyle Seager, in his first at-bat since being added to the American League All-Star team, struck out on three pitches. The Mariners took the lead the following inning when Zunino tagged a full-count fastball for his 13th homer of the season. The ball was a no-doubter to left from the moment of contact. The chance for more beckoned when Dustin Ackley singled, and Brad Miller walked. But Correia retired Saunders on a fly to left and Jones on a grounder to second. The Mariners missed another chance in the fifth after Saunders drew a one-out walk and went to third on Cano’s sharp single through the right side. Correia kept it 1-0 by retiring Hart on a grounder to short. That left the Mariners 0-for-18 with runners in scoring position since Miller’s game-winning double Saturday against the White Sox.

Buck designated for assignment After Monday’s win, the Mariners designated backup catcher John Buck for assignment. They now have 10 days to trade, release or outright Buck. Buck was hitting .226 in limited duty as the backup catcher. A corresponding move — likely the call-up of catcher Jesus Sucre from Tacoma — will be made today.

Mill Creek Little League teams win district titles Herald News Services Mill Creek Little League captured two District 1 All-Star championships, winning the majors softball title last month and the age 9-10 baseball division this past weekend. Both teams qualified for their respective state tournaments. The Mill Creek majors softball team, made up of players ages 11-12, won all four of its tournament games, outscoring its opponents 55-14 at Phil Johnson Fields in Everett. Pitchers Alana Walkush, Taylor Harrington and Samantha Warren led Mill Creek. Katie Aydelott, Haley Balestreri, Kassidi Dean, Laina Delgado, Jillian Hampson, Dominique Kirton, Sheridan Lahn, Molly Jo Myers, Macy Tarbox and Kiana Zellmer all contributed to the offense and defense. The team was managed by Jeff Hampson. He was assisted by coaches Loren Dean and Matt Harrington. Mill Creek began the state tournament Saturday in Oak Harbor, winning its first game and losing its second in the double-elimination tourney. The statechampionship game is scheduled for Thursday, with an additional game on Friday if necessary. Meanwhile, the 9-10 Mill Creek baseball team posted a 4-0 record in the district tournament held in Snohomish. Mill Creek outscored its opponents 52-11, including a 5-2 victory over South Everett in Sunday’s championship game. South Everett led the game 2-0 until Mill Creek’s starting pitcher, Mitchell DeGard, tied the contest with a two-run double and scored the go-ahead run on Dominic Hellman’s infield single. Isaiah Halim recorded three hits for Mill Creek. Other members of the team included David Barr, Carson Burns, Cameron Gumke, Anthony Kodama, Aiden Lundquist, Kellen Mathis, Darren Melville, Braden O’Donnell, Brendan Sandico and Justin Vickery.

Ace earns golfer a truck CAMANO ISLAND — Corey Westerman of Camano Island won a new truck Friday when he recorded a hole-inone during the SCIS Golf Classic V at Camaloch Golf Course. Westerman, 28, aced the 167-yard, No. 9 hole. He used a 6-iron. The tournament was a fund-raiser for Stanwood-Camano Incident Support (SCIS) and drew 126 golfers. Blade Chevrolet of Mount Vernon helped sponsor the event and offered a 2014 Silverado pickup truck to anyone who made a hole-in-one on the ninth hole. “It hasn’t really sunk in,” Westerman, a firefighter, said in a press release, “because I haven’t seen all the tax forms yet.” SCIS is a non-profit organization headquartered in Stanwood. Its 14 volunteer chaplains provide support to city and county first responders. For a photo of Westerman and his truck, visit www.heraldnet.com/communitysports.

English club that’s popular enough to merit the U.S. tour that stops in Seattle later this month, lost its best player, Gareth Bale, to Real Madrid last year because the Spanish club made an offer that was too good to refuse.

confidence, buoyed in large part by his strong Christian faith. “It will be extremely challenging, but I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t believe in myself,” he said. “I firmly believe I have the ability. And if (the big leagues) is where God wants me to be, then I’m going to get there. “My dream is to play this great game and glorify God while I’m doing it.

understands just how unlikely it is that Yedlin stays in Seattle if Roma or some other big European club comes calling. As much as Major League Soccer has improved, and as much as MLS players demonstrated that in this World Cup, a young American player with Yedlin’s athletic gifts isn’t likely to stay home forever. That was true even before Yedlin was a surprise inclusion on the 2014 World Cup roster, and before his very impressive performance against Belgium. Yedlin has the type of rare speed that stood out even against the best competition in the world in Brazil, he’s young, and now he has valuable World Cup experience under his belt. “How many 21-year-old right backs have three World Cup games under their belt?” Schmid said of Yedlin, who turns 21 Wednesday. “That’s a very exclusive market.” While the reasons for Yedlin’s likely departure are obvious — with Roma he would play in one of the top leagues in the world and make significantly more money while playing for a team that qualified for the 2015 UEFA Champions League competition, arguably soccer’s biggest tournament other than the World Cup — Yedlin acknowledges that he needs make sure any move he makes is right for him. MLS has sent plenty of young promising players to Europe only to have them get stuck on the bench before eventually returning worse off for their trip across the pond. While playing in one of Europe’s top leagues is undeniably a step up, riding the pine in Europe can be worse that staying in MLS and playing every week. That’s why Yedlin says that while he has the goal of playing in Europe, MLS is still a viable option as well. “The MLS is such a growing league,” he said. “The MLS is really getting up there and it’s becoming one of the top leagues in the world, so obviously that shifts a little bit as the MLS gets better and better.” Yedlin admitted that the timetable on pretty much all of his goals has been accelerated by recent events. Last spring, he was a teenage rookie who turned into a surprise starter for Seattle. Since then he’s been an MLS All-Star, been a surprise pick on Jurgen Klinsmann’s World Cup roster, and then played well enough in Brazil to make a name for himself to the point that he did a national talk-show blitz in New York on his way home. Despite his newfound fame, Yedlin says for now nothing changes. He’s a Sounder now, and likely for the rest of the season, though beyond that seems unlikely now. “I’m letting my representatives take care of that right now, and they’ll obviously get back to me with that information,” Yedlin said. “But right now I’m just focused on Seattle, focused on hopefully winning the MLS Cup, and just looking to come back and do well.” And staying focused on the Sounders, even with all this newfound fame and rumors of a move to Europe won’t be hard, Yedlin says: “No, not at all. I love this team; it’s easy to focus on a team when you love them. It’s very easy to do actually.” As for what a Yedlin transfer would mean to the Sounders, it’s less black-and-white than the reasons for Yedlin to leave. The Sounders would lose one of their best young players, as well as a marketable, homegrown star, but they’d also reap significant financial benefits from selling Yedlin’s rights. Both in terms of money they could spend on anything from facilities to investing in the very academy program that helped develop Yedlin, and also in the form of allocation money that would help the team with salary cap concerns in future years. The move would also represent a big step, in a sense, for the Sounders and MLS in that they produced a homegrown player who went from their academy system to one of Europe’s top leagues in so little time. Someday it should be the goal See YEDLIN, Page C4

A ‘brutal’ game?

Germany’s coach is worried about Brazil’s tackling By Nesha Starcevic Associated Press

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil — Germany coach Joachim Loew is worried about Brazil’s “brutal” tackling in recent games, and appealed to the referee of their World Cup semifinal to be on the lookout for such tactics. Germany and Brazil play today in Belo Horizonte, with Mexican referee Marco Rodriguez in charge of the match. Loew was one of many observers who took note of the bruising quarterfinal between Brazil and Colombia, and said that tackling by both sides was often “brutal and almost over the limit.” “My hope, or what I expect, is that the referee Rodriguez keeps an eye on these things,” Loew said. “In Europe there would not be 22 players on the pitch at the end. There were many hard fouls from behind, from the side. You have to see that this brutal and robust physical side is stopped because then you won’t have

a Neymar, Messi ... but other players who destroy the game.” Neymar, Brazil’s biggest star, fractured a vertebra late in that game after taking a knee in the back, an injury that ruled him out of the rest of the World Cup. Loew began the news conference by once again expressing regret that Neymar will miss the match. Brazil captain and defender Thiago Silva is also out because of a suspension. “A top player missing means other layers will take responsibility and I am sure they will play for Neymar and for Thiago,” Loew said. “No one should think that Neymar’s absence or Thiago Silva’s is a disadvantage, with Dante playing you can’t expect him to play badly, especially against Germany.” Center back Dante, who is expected to replace Silva, plays for Bayern Munich and is a teammate of many Germany players. Loew said Brazil was sure to take commitment, passion and emotion and the “backing of

200 million” into the semifinal, but that Germany should not adjust to its opponent and will try to play its own game. “We are confident and if we manage to play to our abilities, our hopes of reaching the final are not all that bad,” Loew said. Loew said that all 22 players remaining in his squad are fit and ready to play. Defender Shkodran Mustafi is out with a leg muscle injury. Loew said Brazil was the favorite despite the absence of top stars. “Such semifinals are a special occasion, the fight of the two continents, two European teams against two South American teams,” he said. In the other semifinal on Wednesday, Argentina plays the Netherlands in Sao Paulo. Germany, a three-time champion, is playing in its fourth straight semifinal and hoping to reach its first final since 2002, when it lost to Brazil in the only previous World Cup match the two nations have played.

The buzz Brazil, a five-time champion and playing at home, meets Germany, whose three titles are second-most in the tournament’s modern era. Both teams are unbeaten, but the matchup lost much of its luster when a hard tackle from Colombia’s Juan Zuniga knocked Brazilian star Neymar out of the tournament with a cracked vertebra. Brazil will also be missing captain and central defender Thiago Silva after his second yellow card of the World Cup. Chelsea midfielder Willian is expected to make his first start for the national team as Neymar’s replacement while Silva’s place probably will be taken by Dante, who has played six years in the German Bundesliga, most recently with Bayern Munich, also home to seven members of the German World Cup team. But the burden of making up for those absences will fall most heavily on midfielder Oscar and defender David Luiz. Luiz probably will inherit the captain’s armband, since he’s been Brazil’s best player so far in this World Cup. Brazil is under enormous pressure to win at home, a big reason why the team has been visited by a psychologist at least twice in the last week. Germany is also feeling heat from its fans. The only country to reach the semifinals in four consecutive World Cups, Germany hasn’t won a title since 1990, its longest drought since World War II. Germany has looked far more composed in its five games here than Brazil, but it has grown tentative in front of the net, scoring four goals in the opening game and just four more in regulation time in the four games since. Although Manuel Neuer has been overshadowed by spectacular performances from Tim Howard of the U.S., Mexico’s Guillermo Ochoa and Costa Rica’s Keylor Navas, the German goalie has been the best keeper in the tournament, pitching three shutouts and allowing just two goals in regulation. Meanwhile, Thomas Mueller, tied for second in this World Cup with four goals, hasn’t found the back of the net since group play. Kevin Baxter, Los Angeles Times

Hospitality exec arrested in World Cup ticket probe Associated Press RIO DE JANEIRO — A senior executive with the official World Cup corporate hospitality provider was arrested Monday in the plush beachside hotel where FIFA President Sepp Blatter is staying, as part of a Brazilian police investigation into illegal ticket sales. Ray Whelan, a director of MATCH Services, was arrested at the Copacabana Palace in Rio de Janeiro, the hotel used by senior FIFA officials during the World Cup. Whelan was detained as part of a larger police investigation dubbed “Operation Jules Rimet.” He was characterized by police investigator Fabio Barucke as being the “facilitator” who

allowed a large ring of scalpers to have access to tickets. In an emailed statement, police said Whelan was heard on wiretapped phone calls negotiating ticket prices with Algerian national Mohamadou Lamine Fofana, who they accuse of being the ringleader of the scalpers. Whelan was arrested inside his luxury suite Monday afternoon, where police said they confiscated 82 tickets for upcoming matches, along with Whelan’s computer, cellphone and other unspecified documents. Under Brazilian law, the 64-year-old Whelan may only be charged by prosecutors after they receive the complete police investigation, which officers have 30 days to complete. Investigators said Whelan was still

being questioned inside a precinct Monday evening — and that he would spend the night in jail. A spokesman for MATCH Hospitality, the subsidiary in the MATCH group of companies implicated in the investigation, didn’t immediately reply to requests for comment. Re-selling World Cup tickets for profit is illegal in Brazil and against FIFA rules. Police arrested 11 people, including Fofana, and seized 131 game tickets last week — at least 70 of them for corporate hospitality. Police said then that Fofana had connections to FIFA or MATCH, and the original source of the tickets to be sold at hugely inflated prices was “someone higher up.” Police said they had

information from 50,000 phone calls they tapped during their scalping investigation and Fofana had access to restricted areas at the Copacabana Palace. MATCH Hospitality is the main provider of hospitality packages for the World Cup and paid $240 million for the exclusive rights to sell corporate hospitality at the 2010 and 2014 World Cups. Blatter’s nephew, Philippe Blatter, is the president of a company which is a shareholder in MATCH Hospitality. Of the more than 3 million purchasable tickets for the tournament, 445,500 were allocated to MATCH Hospitality, according to FIFA. Any unsold or unused corporate hospitality tickets should be returned to FIFA to be made available to the public.

He added London glory to his record after also winning on the Champs-Elysees in Paris, in the Tour finale last year. His job in the sprints got a lot easier after Britain’s Mark Cavendish pulled out of the race after injuring his shoulder in a crash in Saturday’s Stage 1. “It’s one big opponent that is not in the race anymore,” Kittel

Kittel wins final Tour stage in U.K. LONDON — Germany’s Marcel Kittel showed he may be the sprinter to beat at the Tour de France, speeding to his second stage win this year in Stage 3 on Monday as cycling’s biggest race entered London before leaving England for France. Rain in the City of London doused riders at the end of the 155-kilometer (96-mile) ride from the university town of Cambridge to a dramatic finish past landmarks Big Ben and Westminster. Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali retained the overall leader’s yellow jersey with a 2-second lead over the most likely contenders to win the three-week race in Paris on July 27. Kittel, led out perfectly by Giant-Shimano teammates, made it look easy as he sped down a final wide approach on The Mall with Buckingham Palace behind him. Peter Sagan of Slovakia was second and Australia’s Mark Renshaw was third. “I’m really really happy I could win in front of Buckingham Palace,” said Kittel, who won four Tour stages last year. “It was one of the greatest finishes I’ve

said. “Of course, that changes things for me, but also for the team.” Kittel is no threat for the yellow jersey. Like many sprinters, he struggles on climbs and fell nearly 20 minutes behind Nibali in the overall standings in an up-and-down ride on Sunday through the hills and dales of Yorkshire. Nibali’s biggest challengers for the prized leader’s shirt remain title-holder Chris Froome of

Britain and Spain’s Alberto Contador, who finished with the Italian in the 83-rider bunch behind Kittel. On Monday, the pack cruised nervously and let two breakaway riders go free on Monday. The duo was caught with about 6 kilometers (4 miles) left. The first three stages in England have been a runaway success with fans — notably through Yorkshire’s hills and dales — with many Britons waving French flags and Union Jacks. But the teeming curbs, sidewalks and roadsides again caused trouble for the riders. With about 30 kilometers (19 miles) left, 2010 Tour winner Andy Schleck of Luxembourg was among riders who crashed briefly, and French TV showed a fan on the ground. Schleck, who gingerly returned to the race, said he didn’t hit a spectator. “I guess it was my own fault,” said Schleck, who collided with another rider and hurtled over his handlebars. Riders were flying across the English Channel for today’s Stage 4 — a 163.5-kilometer (105-mile) ride from Le TouquetParis Plage to Lille Metropole on the border with Belgium.

Sterling trial gets underway after delay, Donald absent Heat agree with pair Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The legal battle over the $2 billion sale of the Los Angeles Clippers finally got underway Monday after lawyers for owner Donald Sterling lost a bid to move the case to federal court. A federal judge rejected Sterling’s motion. In the afternoon, Sterling was called to the witness stand in Los Angeles County Superior Court but he wasn’t there, prompting yet another delay. Sterling’s estranged

wife, Shelly, has struck a deal to sell the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer after her husband’s racist remarks to a girlfriend were publicized and the NBA moved to oust him as team owner. The non-jury trial will determine whether Shelly Sterling had authority under terms of a family trust to unilaterally negotiate the deal. She had two doctors examine her 80-year-old husband and they declared him mentally incapacitated and unable to act as an administrator of the Sterling

Family Trust, which owns the Clippers. The court must find that Sterling’s wife acted in accordance with the trust and that the deal still applies — even though the trust has since been revoked by Donald Sterling — for the sale to proceed. In seeking a move to federal court last week, Sterling’s attorneys argued that their client was induced to undergo mental examination under false pretenses and that his private, personal medical records were given to his wife’s

“handpicked” doctors in violation of federal medical privacy laws. His wife’s lawyers claim Donald Sterling’s legal maneuvers were just a tactic to run out the clock on the Clippers sale. NBA owners are scheduled to vote on the deal on July 15. It’s also the day that Ballmer’s offer is set to expire — and there is no deal without the judge’s approval of the sale. If the sale isn’t completed by Sept. 15, the league said it could seize the team and put it up for auction.

Associated Press MIAMI — While waiting for LeBron James, the Miami Heat are apparently giving him some more options to think about. The Heat announced Monday that they intend to sign forwards Danny Granger and Josh McRoberts when the NBA’s moratorium on deals being formally struck ends later this week. Granger has agreed to sign a two-year deal, with an option for the second of those seasons. McRoberts agreed to a four-year contract, the last year also being an option, in a deal that could be worth about $23 million. Heat President Pat Riley is planning to meet with James later this week, in an effort to convince him to stay in Miami. James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh are all free agents, and none have said where they will be playing next season and beyond.
