OSO MUDSLIDE

Resolutions in tragedy Searchers believe last victim found

Geologists find no single cause behind slide

By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

OSO — Searchers believe they have found Kristine “Kris” Regelbrugge, the final missing victim of the March 22 Oso mudslide. Regelbrugge was among 43 people buried in the slide. She was 44. Persistence, with a little luck, paid off. Clues led searchers to the rubble of Regelbrugge’s garage, buried under about 18 feet of debris, Sheriff Ty Trenary said at a press conference Tuesday afternoon. “She was much deeper... Kris Regelbrugge than we expected her to be,” Trenary said. Although forensic confirmation by the Snohomish County Medical Examiner is necessary, sheriff ’s officials are confident it was Regelbrugge they found about 8 a.m. Tuesday. “Four months ago, I never imagined we would be where we are today,” Trenary said. The Oso slide is the deadliest in U.S. history. It buried a squaremile area of the valley under a deep blanket of mud, clay, trees and flood waters. In the days afterward, Trenary’s deputies consulted with sheriff ’s offices in counties in Colorado where widespread flooding last fall resulted in multiple deaths. Several of the bodies in that disaster were never found. See REGELBRUGGE, Page A2

By Chris Winters Herald Writer

OSO — The March 22 mudslide that wiped out a neighborhood and killed 43 people was largely triggered by a previous landslide in the same area in 2006. This “remobilization” of the 2006 slide was far more dramatic and devastating than previous slide activity, and as a new report released Tuesday makes clear, there is no clear cause of what made that old slide come back to life, aside from the presence of water in the soil. The report, released Tuesday morning, is published by the GEER Association. GEER,

which stands for Geotechnical Extreme Events Reconnaissance, mobilizes teams of geologists and engineers to the sites of natural disasters that damage infrastructure. While the county is facing multiple lawsuits from people saying they should have been warned about the landslide risk, the report also notes that there are no national or state guidelines concerning levels of risk due to natural landslides that warrant government action. The goal of GEER is to gather as much data as possible as quickly as possible, before natural geological forces begin to obscure evidence of the disaster, and then release its findings publicly to spur on further research.

The report said that logging on the Whitman Bench above and behind the slope that collapsed might have led to increased groundwater in the slope. But that was just one possible factor among many others contributing to the slide, and it was not the most significant factor even to the amount of groundwater in the slope, the experts said. More significant to triggering the catastrophe was the large amount of rainfall in the weeks leading up to the slide, and many other factors that created conditions ripe for the slope to fail.

Council members said they

Regelbrugge From Page A1

“Here in Snohomish County, we had to prepare ourselves for a similar fate,” Trenary said. Gov. Jay Inslee said the work done to find all of those who died in the mudslide was extraordinary. “This is hopefully going to bring some relief to the family,” he said. “It’s one of those things you can’t consider a blessing; you might consider a balm.” Sara Regelbrugge, one of the couple’s daughters, said Tuesday that the family is reserving comment until more details are known. The family doesn’t want to get its hopes up until there is medical confirmation, she said. Navy Cmdr. John Regelbrugge III, 49, also died in the slide. His body was found by two brothers and two sons in March. The couple were at their home on Steelhead Drive when the slide hit. They were the parents of five grown children. John Regelbrugge was the officer in charge of the Everett maintenance detachment of the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. He was two years from retirement. He served 32 years in the Navy, including 13 overseas deployments, the last in 2013.

Snohomish County sheriff ’s search and rescue personnel, working with others, made Tuesday’s discovery on the west side of the slide, south of Highway 530. Her body was about 100 yards from where John Regelbrugge was recovered. Personal items believed to belong to the Regelbrugge family recently found in the area became a trail of clues. Trenary had particular praise for Sgt. Danny Wikstrom and deputy Glen Bergstrom, who lives in Oso. The pair have worked search and rescue in the county for years, and were involved in the mudslide response from the outset. “I’m humbled and honored that we are able to return Kris to her family,” Trenary said. “I’m also extremely grateful to the communities of Oso, Darrington and Arlington who stood beside us these past four months in our efforts to recover all of the missing victims.” Search and rescue crews used evidence-based techniques often employed by police in missing persons cases to aid them in their search. The knowledge, support and pressure from the community pushed searchers to not give up. It has been two months since the 42nd mudslide

victim was recovered. Steven Hadaway, 53, of Darrington was found May 22. The morning of the mudslide he’d been installing a satellite dish on the roof of Amanda Lennick’s Steelhead Haven house. She also perished. His brother, John Hadaway, cried when he learned that the sheriff ’s office was confident it had found Kris Regelbrugge. “It’s a very emotional day. It’s tears of joy,” Hadaway said. “On the other hand, it’s just so, so sad.” Hadaway spent time in the debris fields searching for his brother. He knew the odds were against finding everyone, but also felt that the community would “never, never, never” give up. “Finding one person is a miracle, but 43 out of 43, I don’t think there are words in the dictionary for that.” Each of the victims identified so far died from multiple blunt force injuries, according to medical examiner reports. For more than a month after the slide, up to 1,000 searchers crawled over the site, looking for victims. The active search was suspended in late April, but spotters have stood watch, first as crews with heavy equipment excavated Highway 530 and, lately, as the debris piles are broken down. Since April, the sheriff ’s office quietly deployed people back to the slide area on more than a halfdozen occasions. Their mission was to follow up

on what were considered promising clues about Regelbrugge’s location, often suggested by locals. Searchers last week found items belonging to the couple and focused their efforts in that area. The Regelbrugges are survived by two daughters, Sara and Shante; three sons, Kyle, Scott and Brian; and two grandchildren. “It is a testament to the persistence of the sheriff ’s office that today, four months after the slide, we recovered the final victim,” said Snohomish County Executive John Lovick. “The sheriff ’s search and rescue teams are true professionals. I am honored and humbled by their dedication and commitment to this community.” Meanwhile, a special county-state panel will soon begin examining circumstances preceding the landslide and the emergency response when the hill gave way. Inslee and Lovick had been expected to launch the commission Tuesday but the announcement was postponed. “There are a few lastminute pieces that had to be worked out,” said Jaime Smith, spokeswoman for the governor. “People have a lot of questions and (we) want to try to answer those before we announce.” Jerry Cornfield contributed to this report Eric Stevick: 425-3393446; stevick@heraldnet. com.

Those whole paychecks are missing something: A ranking of 401(k) retirement savings plans at the nation’s 250 biggest companies found that one of the least generous is the one offered by Whole Foods (Page A11). The natural foods grocer contributes only $152 a year to its employees’ retirement, which means that Whole Foods retirees will have to subsist on cat food — just not the fair-trade artisanal kind. The teeming, filthy rich masses: More than 1 in every 25 New Yorkers is a millionaire, according to a study

released Tuesday (Page A12). That explains why Mitt Romney was seen wandering around the Lower East Side recently, muttering to himself, “For Pete’s sake, why didn’t these people vote for me?” Not again: An economist who warned in 2004 that the housing bubble would soon burst now says the U.S. is likely to fall into a recession next year triggered by slumps in other countries (Page A11). If he’s right, boomers better start stocking up on cat food — maybe even the fair-trade artisanal kind.

Contractor could avoid jail Everett James Platt, who was convicted of stealing from clients, must complete 240 hours of community service. By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

EVERETT — A Monroe contractor convicted of stealing from

clients won’t see the inside of a jail cell if he completes 240 hours of community service. Snohomish County Superior Court Judge George Appel on

Tuesday agreed to spare James Platt, 66, a jail sentence in large part because the defendant paid off the $450,000 settlement reached in the civil lawsuit filed by the victims in 2008. “I will tell you if were it not for the payment, I would put you in jail today,” Appel said.

Platt faced up to 60 days behind bars. He pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of seconddegree theft. Platt didn’t admit any wrongdoing as part of his plea but acknowledged that a jury likely would convict him. See CONTRACTOR, Page A4

Parking a perennial problem Popular Lighthouse Park offers visitors beaches, views and a market By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

MUKILTEO — Getting a parking space at Lighthouse Park can feel like winning the lottery. On sunny summer days, other drivers aren’t so lucky. Many circle the parking lot over and over so they can spend time at a park that has just about everything — sandy beaches, a boat launch, picnic shelters, a wedding circle and stunning views of Possession Sound and the Olympic Mountains. Last week, one driver cut to the front of a line of five cars waiting for a spot in the designated parking for the farmers market.

It’s been a very, very sore subject. It’s a bottleneck down there. It’s been a bottleneck for 40 years. — Anna Tink, a market volunteer

“Hey!” exclaimed Nancy Scherrer, of Mukilteo, who could only sigh in frustration. Drivers also have been known to double park, illegally use handicapped parking spots or park in fire lanes or spots set aside for boat trailers. On the weekend of July 12 and

13, the city handed out 93 tickets for parking violations at the park, said Chuck Macklin, the city’s acting police chief. Drivers typically end up paying a $40 fine. That can balloon to $125 for parking in a fire lane and $450 for parking in a handicapped parking spot without a permit.

Major remodeling projects at the park in 2008 and 2010 added amenities like more restrooms and a picnic shelter, but took away some parking spots. That created high demand for the 280 that are left. Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays during the summer are the toughest times to get parking, Macklin said. The city hired a parking lot attendant last week to work on those days, posting a sign when the lot is full and directing people to look for parking elsewhere. “They’ve created a real gem at the end of the Mukilteo See PARKING, Page A5

EVERETT — The first of a series of eight public workshops to address homelessness and loitering will be held Thursday. The Everett Streets Initiative is a task force launched by Mayor Ray Stephanson to address street-level nuisances in the city, including homelessness, mental health, addiction, public safety, use of public spaces and commercial streetscapes. The task force comprises 23 people from local nonprofits and businesses, with five more city and Snohomish County officials providing administrative support. A professional facilitator will help run the meetings, city spokeswoman Meghan Pembroke said. “We hope the task force will come up with some recommendations for the community,” Pembroke said. The focus will primarily be on the city’s commercial core zones: downtown, BroadwayEvergreen Way, and the area near 41st Street and the Everett Clinic. The task force is jointly led by Everett Planning Commission chairman Chris Adams and Sylvia Anderson, CEO of the Everett Gospel Mission. Arriving at a solution to homelessness and other social problems won’t be easy, and Adams admits that there are areas where he will need to learn more. “The hard thing is that we need to go through the education process at the beginning of the task force process,” Adams said. Task force member and community activist Megan Dunn said she’s been preparing by reading up on homelessness, such as the United Way’s 2006 report “Everyone At Home Now” report. “I’m anxious to hear more about what measures are being taken right now and use that to understand what’s missing and what can be done,” Dunn said. Co-chair Sylvia Anderson said she hopes the task force members will want to find solutions and not point fingers or otherwise assign blame. See SAFETY, Page A4

LOCAL BRIEFLY Pilot rescued after helicopter crash near Oso OSO — A pilot was rescued Tuesday afternoon after his helicopter crashed north of Highway 530 near a logging operation. Bystanders reportedly pulled the man from the wreckage, located near Larch Lake in Skagit County. Oso fire personnel reported that the man, believed to be in his 60s, was conscious. An update of his condition was not

immediately available. A Snohomish County sheriff’s helicopter crew lifted the man from the site. He was flown to a local hospital, sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. No one else was believed to be onboard the Hughes helicopter. The Skagit County Sheriff’s Office will handle the investigation along with the Federal Aviation Administration. Federal records indicate that the helicopter is owned by Olympic Air Inc. out of Shelton, Wash. A National Transportation Safety Board report

indicates that the helicopter was damaged during a hard landing in 2003. In that incident, the helicopter ran out of gas mid-flight during a logging operation, forcing the pilot to land the aircraft on a dirt road. Investigators found that the helicopter’s fuel indicator and low fuel warning light had failed because of improperly secured equipment. Federal records also show that the helicopter was involved in a crash in 1996, also during a logging operation. Investigators found that fuel had been contaminated.

Snohomish: Explosive devices found in car

A bomb squad was called to Snohomish on Tuesday after two explosive devices were found in a recovered stolen car. The car was parked at an impound lot along Bonneville Avenue when a tow truck crew found the devices, including a pipe bomb, Snohomish County sheriff’s spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. The car had been recovered last week, and the suspect arrested.

The bomb squad collected the devices on Tuesday and detonated them at a safe location.

Filming will shut down part of road Lowell-Snohomish River Road is to shut down intermittently this week for the filming of a movie. The closures are expected between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. through Friday as crews shoot “Captain Fantastic.” Viggo Mortensen, known for his role as Aragorn in the “Lord of The Rings” trilogy, plays a father who must

return to his six children and society after a decade of living off the grid in the Pacific Northwest’s forests. The Snohomish County Department of Public Works said Square Planet has permission to shut down Lowell-Snohomish River Road west of Airport Road for up to 10 minutes at a time for filming. Offduty deputies are expected to control each end of the closure. There is a plan for emergency vehicle access.

Contractor: Accused of inflating bills, forging invoices From Page A3

His plea didn’t sit well with the victims, a husband and wife who hired Platt to build a house in the Kellogg Lake area in east Snohomish County. They urged the judge to send Platt to jail, saying he hasn’t show any remorse. “He is not a man who believes the rules apply

to him,” the woman said Tuesday. Platt’s attorney, Mark Mestel, of Everett, explained to Appel it was under his advice that his client entered the plea as he did. He was concerned that more civil litigation would follow if Platt admitted any wrongdoing. “He’s always believed his interpretation of the

contract was right,” Mestel said. Prosecutors alleged that Platt inflated bills from subcontractors and forged invoices to justify the overbilling. Investigators found that Platt and the couple in 2006 signed a contract that included a 17 percent supervision fee for Platt on top of what the subcontractors billed.

Construction began and the first bill was submitted in January 2007. Prosecutors allege Platt overinflated what subcontractors actually charged and based his fee on the bogus bills. He is accused of taking more than he was entitled from an escrow account. When he was questioned by the couple about the bills, the defendant

forged invoices, court papers said. The unhappy customers sued Platt and a settlement was reached about three years later. Initially, Snohomish County sheriff’s deputies spoke with the customers in 2010 about the case. At that time, the couple said they were concerned a criminal investigation would

jeopardize their lawsuit, court papers said. Prosecutors spoke with the couple in 2012 and decided to move forward with filing a criminal charge. Platt has 10 months to complete his community service or he’ll face going to jail for up to 30 days. Diana Hefley: 425-3393463; hefley@heraldnet. com.

Parking: It’s a longtime problem with no easy solution From Page A3

Speedway,” Maklin said. “There’s not enough parking spots for the demand.” Shanita Duke, a community service officer with the Mukilteo Police Department, said conflicts often arise from passenger cars parking in spots reserved for boats and trailers. Visitors sometimes try to reserve spots for other people joining them at the park, she said. “There’s a lot of frustration and I get it.” If drivers go to the nearby waterfront business district, they need to

ensure they don’t park in spaces reserved for local businesses, Macklin said. “They could get ticketed or towed.” There’s parking along Second Street in lots not reserved by nearby restaurants. But that means about a 12-minute walk to the park. People have to cross the State Route 525 bridge, often bound up by a long line of idling cars queued up for the Mukilteo-Clinton ferry. Parking is available the Rosehill Community Center when other events aren’t scheduled there. Visitors also have the option of parking along

Mukilteo Speedway and taking the bus to the park. On Wednesday evenings, a free farmers market shuttle, paid for by the market’s vendors, is available at the corner of Third Street and Lincoln Avenue to transport shoppers, said Anna Tink, a market volunteer. Forrest Wetzel, a shuttle bus driver, said that ridership was so great one recent evening that he had to make an extra, unscheduled trip to pick up the last remaining shoppers. On busy days, as many as 3,000 people come to the market.

“That beach does bring in a huge draw,” Tink said. Over the years, the market has been at three locations, she said. “This by far has been the best sales for us.” They city has been working hard on trying to find solutions, she said. “It’s been a very, very sore subject. It’s a bottleneck down there. It’s been a bottleneck for 40 years.” Adele Daniels, owner of Pop’s Carmel Corn, one of the market’s vendors, said she thinks that parking issues can keep people away from the market. “I’ve been doing the

market for many years,” she said. “There is a parking issue and has been for some time.” Traffic problems are caused not just by the park but by ferry traffic, she said. If the farmers market were moved to another location along Mukilteo Speedway, it might provide more parking, but the setting wouldn’t be the same. “When the beach is nice, they want to be there,” she said. “I don’t know what the resolution is.” Ashley Phaysith, of Shoreline, and her friend Vivian Lee, of Lynnwood, went to the park last week

to play volleyball. They had to circle the park five times to find parking. “More parking would be nice,” Phaysith said. It took two trips for Scherrer, who lives in Mukilteo, to get to the market last week. The first time, she got stuck in traffic in the park’s roundabout. “I had to scrap it,” she said. “I probably should have walked. “They could have more people — a lot more people — if it was accessible,” she said.

allure of a largely cashonly business for robbers and burglars; illegal sales “out the backdoor” of a licensed retailer; and mixed messages to youth about drug use. Election results show that a slight majority of

Stanwood voters were against legalizing recreational marijuana. Out of 2,774 people, 1,401 voted against Initiative 502 and 1,373 voted in favor. Depending on the outcome of Thursday’s hearing, council members could postpone their final vote on the ban by

extending the current moratorium, Larsen said. “Something’s going to happen,” he said. “They’re either going to pass the ordinance or extend the moratorium.” A ban on recreational shops would not affect Fresh Alternative Medicine, Stanwood’s only

medical marijuana provider, he said. Two of the state’s first legal recreational marijuana retailers are within 12 miles of Stanwood City Hall. Cascade Kropz is located at 19129 Smokey Point Blvd. in Arlington and the Bud Hut is on Camano Island at 1123

Highway 532. As of Monday, no one interested in opening a recreational pot business in Stanwood had filed for a business permit or contacted the city, Larsen said. Kari Bray: 425-339-3439; kbray@heraldnet.com.

Wildfire crews make gains

Cause From Page A1

“It was really on the edge, and it doesn’t take a lot to set it off,” said Joseph Wartman, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at the University of Washington who co-led the team with Jeffrey Keaton, principal engineering geologist with AMEC Americas in Anaheim, Calif. The team found that the March 22 slide took place in two stages. The first stage started lower down the slope on Hazel Hill and was the more devastating of the two. Stage 1 was the reactivation of the 2006 slide, sending soil and debris downhill, across the North Fork Stillaguamish River

acres, the Carlton Complex is larger than the 1902 Yacolt Burn, which consumed 238,920 acres in southwestern Washington and was the state’s largest recorded forest fire, according to HistoryLink. org, an online resource of Washington state history. The fire is being blamed for one death. Rob Koczewski, 67, died of an apparent heart attack Saturday while he and his wife were hauling water and digging fire lines near their home. Koczewski was a retired Washington State Patrol trooper and U.S. Marine. The number of homes

and through the Steelhead Haven neighborhood to wash up the slopes on the south side of the valley. The second stage came a few minutes later, triggered most likely by the loss of support provided by the slope lower down, and involved the collapse of the main scarp of the hillside, causing it to drop 350 feet down, and pushing more debris across the newly exposed slope to hit the trailing edge of the first stage of the slide. What triggered the initial collapse of the first stage, however, is not clear. “The fact that we identified so many factors instead of just one just points to how many threats there were to that slope,” Wartman said. Those contributing factors all point to a complex system in the Stillaguamish River valley, he said. Some of the identified factors might have contributed to the initiation of the slide, others to how the slope collapsed afterward, and others still to how the debris ran out across the valley, he said.

destroyed in the Carlton Complex fire remained at 150, Payne said. Two structures, an outbuilding and a seasonal cabin, were confirmed destroyed Tuesday in the Chiwaukum Creek Fire near Leavenworth, she said. More than 2,100 firefighters and support crew are involved with fighting the fire, Payne said. She said firefighters have had success with fire lines on the east side of state Highway 153 between Carlton and Twisp, and they would be burning lines around Pearrygin Lake on Tuesday.

The team identified 10 possible triggers for the initial stage of the slide: ■ Three weeks of intense rain preceding the slide. ■ Groundwater entering the slide zone from the Whitman Bench, the top of the hill, which may have been affected by past logging activity. ■ More groundwater coming in from the Headache Creek basin. ■ The gradient of the hillside after the 2006 slide was flatter, and surface drainage less effective, allowing more groundwater into the area. ■ The 2006 deposits could have been loose enough to be subject to liquefaction, in which the soils are compacted so much they lose their surface coherence and can flow like a liquid. ■ Subsurface soil deposits consolidating and leaving voids that allow more water to seep in (a process called dilation). ■ Loss of soil strength on the shear surface of the 2006 slide. ■ Soil piping, in which denser soil deposits tend to push ground water through

David Montgomery, a professor of Earth and Space Sciences at the University of Washington who was on the team. The team was comfortable in ruling out other possible effects of logging, such weakened roots of vegetation left on the slope, Montgomery said. Further analysis of the effects of logging, and indeed of any larger scale studies to pinpoint causes, would take much more than the four days of field work and budget of less than $10,000 that GEER provided, he added. The team also considered — but deemed unlikely given the evidence they found — that the entire slope collapsed in one massive event, or that the slide started at the top of the hill with a failure of the Whitman Bench. With the publication of the report, it may be that other organizations will pick up where GEER left off, Wartman said. One gap in the team’s knowledge is what was going on below the surface, because GEER was not able to do any drilling on or in the vicinity of the slide. The study also listed conclusions that have more policy ramifications, such as considering past slide zones when mapping areas for zoning, considering both cumulative amounts and short-duration intensities of rainfall in assessing the likelihood of a slide, and revisiting the methods by which potential runout zones are calculated. When standing on the site of the Oso landslide, it’s easy to believe that the

slide’s runout across the entire valley could not possibly have been predicted, Wartman said. But when comparing it to the record buried in the ground, the March 22 slide was within the scale of previous slides, he said. “When you actually look at the numbers, you see that it actually does lay out,” Wartman said. One final lesson for policy makers is an emerging distinction between landslide hazards and landslide risk. Landslide hazards would determine how likely a slide is to occur in a specific area. Landslide risk would determine possible impacts to human life or property. The Stillaguamish River valley is full of landslide hazards, Wartman said, but Oso also was a highrisk location because people lived there. About 25 homes below the slide were occupied full-time; another 10 were vacation spots. All were in compliance with county codes requiring setbacks from landslide zones, the report noted. “Studies conducted in the decades preceding the Oso Landslide clearly indicated a high landslide hazard at the site,” the report said. “However, these studies were primarily focused on the impacts of landslides to the river versus the impacts to people or property. “In addition, it does not appear that there was any publicly communicated understanding that the debris from a landslide could run-out as much as one kilometer, as it did in the 2014 event.” Implementing more risk-based landslide policies may lead to a clearer understanding of natural hazard danger, even years or decades into the future after a major event has faded from recent memory. “Landslides won’t always behave in the future the way they’ve behaved in the past,” Montgomery said. “That plays into public perception of both likelihood and risk. That’s the key lesson,” he said. Chris Winters: 425-3744165; cwinters@heraldnet. com. Twitter: @Chris_At_Herald

SEATTLE — Amid a swirl of foreign and border challenges, President Barack Obama is embarking on the one mission that has regularly proved a winner for him — raising money for his fellow Democrats.

looser deposits. During periods of rapid infiltration (such as heavy rains), that can destabilize the slope. ■ The 2006 slide deposits below the surface had still not achieved equilibrium and were therefore more easily destabilized. ■ The toe of the initial slide incorporated river water and saturated river valley soil, giving the slide more fluidity. Some of the possible contributing factors were supported by discoveries of interesting phenomena in the field. The team found sand boils on the site, for example. Sand boils are an occurrence when underground water pressure pushes sandy soil up to the surface in a way that looks like a small volcano. They are evidence of liquefaction happening below the surface. They found evidence of 15 other large slides in the valley over the past 6,000 years, and through carbon dating of tree bark in deposits and other means, calculated their frequency at anywhere from 400 to 1,500 years apart. Though the scope of the report did not extend to analyzing how logging activity over the years might have contributed to the slide, it did find that its role would be primarily limited to contributing to increased groundwater in the slide area. Even then, its role was secondary. “The place we saw the strongest effect of groundwater contribution was actually groundwater seeps coming in from the Headache Creek basin,” said

OLYMPIA — Firefighters were making progress Tuesday in their efforts to get the largest wildfire in Washington state’s history under control, with wetter weather bringing some relief but also raising concerns about flash flooding. The Carlton Complex of fires, which has burned nearly 400 square miles in the north-central part of the state, was 16 percent contained as of Tuesday, fire spokeswoman Jessica Payne said. A day earlier, the fire was just 2 percent contained.

Firefighters and local authorities have been heartened by forecasts that call for cooler temperatures and higher humidity. But even though wetter weather has moved in, they worry that lightning strikes could ignite more fires. Rain also brings worries about the potential for flash flooding because so much ground vegetation has been burned away. The National Weather Service issued a flood watch from Wednesday morning through Wednesday evening because of expected heavy rainfall. At more than 250,000

‘Little Big Man’ author dies NEW YORK — Thomas Berger, the witty and eclectic novelist who reimagined the American West in the historical yarn “Little Big Man” and mastered genres ranging from detective stories to domestic farce, has died at 89. Berger’s literary agent, Cristina Concepcion, said Monday that he died in Nyack Hospital on July 13, just days before his 90th birthday. He had been in failing health, she said. One of the last major authors to have served in World War II, Berger wrote more than 20 books, including the autobiographical “Rinehart” series, a “Little Big Man” sequel and “The Feud,” about warring families in a 1930s Midwest community. “The Feud” was recommended for the 1984 Pulitzer Prize by the fiction jury but was overruled by the board of directors, which awarded another Depression-era novel, William Kennedy’s “Ironweed.” Berger’s biggest mainstream success was “Little Big Man,” published in 1964 and an ultra-wry tale of 111-year-old Jack Crabb, who alleges that he was abducted by Indians as a young boy and later fought with the Cheyenne in the Battle of Little Big Horn. The novel was

responsibility to hire, evaluate and fire employees is mine.” Liias said that he will take unpaid leave during the time the Legislature is in session. The salary he will make this year for his city job, which started in May, will be $39,187. Next year, it will be $46,113, he said. He is paid $42,106 as a state senator. After Liias started his city job, one of the first political salvos was fired by Christine Schmalz, wife of Councilman Steve Schmalz, who ran for mayor last year. She called the hiring “cronyism at its finest.” During Monday night’s meeting, she acknowledged that Liias’ hiring was legal but told the council: “It just stinks. It’s unethical. It’s the mayor hiring her best friend for a job.” Another resident, William Boyce, told the council that he felt the city would be well served have a state legislator working for the city. “He’ll be able to figure out things in the Legislature that will benefit our city,” he said. Liias said he feels his background, which includes a bachelor’s degree in foreign service from Georgetown University and graduate courses at the University of Washington’s Evans School of Public Affairs, are good qualifications. Last month, Lord told the mayor that he would give her 30 days to consider her options, including asking Liias to resign. He asked that the

adapted into a 1970 movie of the same name, starring Dustin Hoffman and directed by Arthur Penn. American Indian writer Sherman Alexie, would cite “Little Big Man” as an influence on his screenplay for the 1998 movie “Smoke Signals.” Never as famous as such contemporaries and fellow veterans as Norman Mailer and Kurt Vonnegut, Berger became the kind of writer who made fans feel special just for knowing about him. Admirers regarded him as unique and underappreciated, a comic moralist equally attuned to the American past and present. “Berger’s books are accessible and funny and immerse you in the permanent strangeness of his language and attitude, perhaps best encapsulated by Berger’s own self-definition as a ‘voyeur of copulating words,’ ” Jonathan Lethem wrote in a 2012 essay. Berger worked in libraries as a young man and for a variety of publications, from The New York Times Index to Popular Science Monthly. At a workshop at The New School for Social Research, Berger met such fellow students as Jack Kerouac, Mario Puzo and William Styron and a painter, Jeanne Redpath, who became his wife.

issue be added to Monday night’s City Council agenda. Lord on Monday said he doesn’t doubt that Liias could do a good job either in his role with the city or as a state senator, but not both. Councilman Ted Wheeler called the conflict “a sticky situation” for both the mayor and Liias and asked if Liias, who was in the audience, wanted to the opportunity to say anything in response. Gregerson said she didn’t want city employees called before the council to defend their jobs, but Liias could respond to any questions the council might have. None were asked. Liias did not speak during the meeting but said afterward that if there had been specific questions about his job as a policy analyst, he would have been happy to answer them. “We’re getting some good things done on behalf of the council and for the people,” he said “I’m really thrilled to work for the city and I’m grateful the mayor gave me the opportunity to to join the team.” The initial 15 applicants for the policy analyst’s job were reviewed by a human relations director for the Mukilteo School District with the names redacted. Four candidates were interviewed by two city staff members and two people from outside the city. The final interviews with the two top candidates were conducted with Rex Caldwell, the city’s acting management services director, and Gregerson. Sharon Salyer: 425-3393486; salyer@heraldnet. com.

Q&A on health care law rulings

ACROSS THE U.S.

Perdue defeats Kingston in Georgia Senate runoff

By Tony Pugh McClatchy Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — Contrary rulings Tuesday on a key element of the Affordable Care Act by two separate federal appeals courts raise a variety of questions. Q. What happened? A. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit decided 2-1 that tax subsidies available to help people pay for health coverage through the Affordable Care Act can only be used in the 14 states and in D.C., that run their own insurance exchanges without any help from the federal government. But in a unanimous decision on a similar case a short time later, the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, Va., ruled just the opposite. Q. Who’s eligible for the tax subsidies? A. Individuals and families who earn between 100 percent and 400 percent of the federal poverty level. For those who enrolled this year, it includes individuals earning $11,490 to $45,960, and a family of four earning from $23,550 to $94,200. Q. Does the D.C. court’s decision mean that consumers in the 36 states that use the federal marketplace will lose their tax credits going forward? A. No. The tax credits remain available. The federal government is appealing the decision to the full 11-member U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit. That ruling will supersede Tuesday’s decision. Q. Are there other similar court cases out there? A. Yes. A U.S. District Court in Oklahoma is hearing the case of Pruitt v. Burwell, in which Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt argues that providing tax credits to state residents is illegal. Another, Indiana v. IRS, will be heard in a federal court in Indianapolis. Q. Will this case end up before the Supreme Court? A. Unclear, but many experts believe it will. The high court usually takes a case after two circuit courts issue split rulings on the same matter. But the court can also accept cases dealing with urgent national questions if it desires. Ross C. D’Emanuele, a Minneapolis-based health care attorney, said the courts weren’t “entirely comfortable’ with either of the two decisions on tax credits and it was “highly likely that the Supreme Court will take up the issue.”

UN chief believes Gaza fighting will end soon By Edith M. Lederer Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. secretary-general said Tuesday it is his “hope and belief” that his emergency mission to the Middle East will lead to an end to the fighting between Hamas and Israel “in the very near future.” Ban Ki-moon told the Security Council by videoconference from the West Bank city of Ramallah that he could not publicly reveal details “at this highly sensitive moment.” As he started to address the council a siren could be heard in the background. The U.N. chief has also visited Qatar, Kuwait, Cairo and Jerusalem and said he will go on to Jordan and Saudi Arabia on what he called a mission “of solidarity and peace” to quickly end an escalating twoweek war between Israelis and Hamas militants who control the Gaza Strip. Their third conflict in just over five years has already claimed the lives of at least 609 Palestinians, the vast majority civilians, and 29 Israelis — 27 soldiers and two civilians. Ban said “the most promising prospect of a cease-fire” is an Egyptian initiative to return to the cessation of fighting in November 2012 that has been endorsed by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and the Arab League — but not Hamas. Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian U.N. ambassador, said he believes the Palestinians “are very close” to a unified position. That will enable Abbas to speak for all Palestinians, he

said. U.S. Ambassador Samantha Power told the council that “an immediate cease-fire could not be more urgent or more important” and stressed that the United States “will not rest” until the fighting ends and the underlying issues are resolved leading to a two-state solution. Egypt’s U.N. Ambassador Mootaz Khalil urged acceptance of the Egyptian initiative and condemned Israel’s disproportionate use of force, saying: “The Torah mandates an eye for an eye. It never dreamed a hundred eyes for only one.” Mansour demanded to know what the Security Council is doing “to stop this bloodletting, to stop Israel’s atrocities.” “Without decisive action, the council’s resolutions and statements ring hollow as defenseless civilians find no relief from the murderous

Israeli war machine,” he said. The proposed resolution calls for “an immediate, durable and fully respected cease-fire, including the withdrawal of Israeli occupying forces from the Gaza Strip.” It urges support for the Egyptian cease-fire initiative and calls for “the sustained reopening” of crossing points into Gaza based on a 2005 agreement. The resolution faces an uphill struggle winning approval from the United States, Israel’s closest ally and a veto-wielding council member, especially because it makes no mention of Hamas or its rocketing of Israel. Mansour read the names of 44 Palestinian children killed in the fighting, aged 8 months to 15 years old, and showed council members grim photos of victims and grieving survivors.

Russia had role in loss of jet over Ukraine, says U.S. By Greg Miller The Washington Post

The Obama administration, detailing what it called evidence of Russian complicity in the downing of a Malaysian airliner, on Tuesday released satellite images and other sensitive intelligence that officials say prove Moscow had trained and equipped rebels in Ukraine responsible for the attack. Senior U.S. intelligence officials cited sensors that traced the path of the missile, shrapnel markings on the downed aircraft, voiceprint analysis of separatists claiming credit for the strike, and a flood of photos and other data from social-media sites. The officials also for the first time identified a sprawling Russian military installation near the city of Rostov as the main conduit of Russian support to separatists in Ukraine, describing it as a hub of training and weapons that has expanded dramatically over the past month. The officials said that tanks, rocket launchers and other arms have continued to flow into Ukraine

even after the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, which killed 298 civilians. Analysts at the CIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies are continuing to examine information about the crash, but U.S. officials said the intelligence assembled in the five days since the attack points overwhelmingly to Russianbacked separatists in territory they control in eastern Ukraine. Senior U.S. intelligence officials said they have ruled out the possibility that Ukrainian forces were responsible for the attack. “That is not a plausible scenario,” said one senior U.S. official, who noted that American intelligence agencies have confirmed that Ukraine had no antiaircraft missile system within range of the Malaysian flight at the time it was struck. The U.S. intelligence officials, who included experts on Russia’s military and its relationship with separatists in Ukraine, said they do not know the identities or even the nationalities ­­whether Russian or possibly defectors from Ukraine’s military — of those

ATLANTA — Businessman David Perdue has defeated longtime Rep. Jack Kingston in the Republican runoff for Georgia’s U.S. Senate nomination, setting up a nationally significant general election matchup against Democrat Michelle Nunn. With the win, Perdue overcame a Kingston coalition that spanned the internal GOP struggle between tea party conservatives and traditional GOP powers. Kingston ran as an 11-term congressman, arguing that his record proves his conservative credentials. National Democrats view Nunn, the 47-year-old daughter of former Sen. Sam Nunn, as one of their best opportunities to pick up a GOPheld seat. Nunn, an Atlanta nonprofit executive, uses her father, an old-guard Southern Democrat who served four terms, as an example of what kind of senator she’d be.

Survey finds sharp increase in teen use of HGH Experimentation with human growth hormones by America’s teens more than doubled in the past year, as more young people looked to drugs to boost their athletic performance and improve their looks, according to a new, large-scale national survey being released Wednesday by the Partnership for Drug-Free Kids. Eleven percent reported using synthetic HGH at least once — up from about 5 percent in the four preceding annual surveys. Teen use of steroids increased from 5 percent to 7 percent over the same period, the survey found. Nine percent of teen girls reported trying synthetic HGH and 12 percent of boys.

MT.: Judge censured for comments in rape case The Montana Supreme Court on Tuesday publicly reprimanded a judge who gave a lenient sentence to a rapist after suggesting the 14-year-old victim shared some of the responsibility for the crime. District Judge G. Todd Baugh, of Billings, sent Stacey Dean Rambold to prison for 30 days last year after he pleaded guilty to sexual intercourse without consent. Rambold was a 47-year-old business teacher at Billings Senior High School at the time of the 2007 rape. The victim was one of his students. She committed suicide while the case was pending trial. Baugh said during Rambold’s sentencing in August that the teenager was “probably as much in control of the situation as the defendant” and that she “appeared older than her chronological age.”

Texas: Guard to take observation role at border Most of the 1,000 National Guard troops headed to the Texas-Mexico border will take up observational positions and detain people only if they interfere with their mission, a top general over the deployment said Tuesday. Texas Adjutant General John Nichols said the troops will help deter illicit traffic while U.S. Border Patrol agents deal with a record spike of unaccompanied minors entering the country. The Texas National Guard troops are headed to border on the orders of Republican Gov. Rick Perry. Nichols said troops will be armed for their safety, but when asked if their weapons would be loaded would say only that ammunition would be in magazines.

who launched the missile from an SA-11 surface-to-air battery. Nor have U.S. spy agencies reached any conclusions on the motive for the attack, except to say that the reaction among separatists recorded on social media indicates they believed they were targeting a Ukrainian military transport plane. In part, officials said, that may have been because the rebels operating the missile battery were poorly trained and did not have access to other radar systems and equipment that ordinarily accompany an SA-11 system and are designed to help distinguish military

targets from civilian planes. U.S. officials said earlier that they had seen “indications” of advanced antiaircraft systems being moved into eastern Ukraine from Russia and being removed after the jet was shot down. Intelligence officials said spy agencies were not aware that an SA-11 system was in eastern Ukraine until the attack had happened. They declined to answer questions about whether warnings about the Russian military buildup over the past month had been shared with international aviation authorities.

The House has passed a bill to add $10.8 billion to the federal trust funds providing highway and transit funds to prevent them from running dry next month and to buy more time for Congress to draft a new highway bill next year. The measure’s financing provisions are: ■■Pension “smoothing.” Raises $6.4 billion by allowing companies to reduce the amount that they contribute to their pension funds now and make up for it later. ■■Customs user fees. Raises $3.5 billion by extending for one year (2024) various user fees paid to the Customs Service for goods, vehicles and people entering the U.S. ■■Leaking underground storage tanks. Transfers $1 billion from an overfunded trust fund established to pay for cleaning up sites fouled by pollution from leaking underground storage tanks, including those at gas stations.

Prescient expert warns of slump

Chinese meat scandal widens

The world is dragging the U.S. down, says an economic forecaster who rarely misses. By Bernard Condon Associated Press

NEW YORK — Just as the U.S. economy is strengthening, other countries are threatening to drag it down. Employers in the U.S. are creating jobs at the fastest pace since the late 1990s and the economy finally looks ready to expand at a healthy rate. But sluggish growth in France, Italy, Russia, Brazil and China suggests that the old truism, “When the U.S. sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold,” may need to be flipped. Maybe the rest of the world will sneeze this time, and the U.S. will get sick. That’s the view of David Levy, who oversees the Levy Forecast, a newsletter analyzing the economy that his family started in 1949 and one with an enviable record. Nearly a decade ago, the now 59-year-old economist warned that U.S. housing was a bubble David Levy set to burst, and that the damage would push the country into a recession so severe the Federal Reserve would have no choice but to slash short-term borrowing rates to their lowest levels ever to stimulate the economy. That’s exactly what happened. Now, Levy says the United States is likely to fall into a recession next year triggered by downturns in other countries, the first time in modern history. “The recession for the rest of the world ... will be worse than the last one,” says Levy, whose grandfather called the 1929 stock crash and whose father won praise over decades for anticipating turns in the business cycle, often against conventional wisdom. Levy’s forecast for a global recession is an extreme one, but worth considering given so much is riding on the dominant view that economies are healing. Investors have pushed U.S. stocks to record highs, and Fed estimates have the U.S. growing at an annual pace of at least 3 percent for the rest of the year and all of 2015. Investors have also poured hundreds of millions of dollars into emerging market stock funds recently on hopes economic growth in those countries will pick up, not stall.

A global problem Worrisome signs are already out there. Unlike their U.S. counterparts, European banks are still stuck with too many bad loans from the financial crisis. Business debt there is too high. And confidence is fleeting, as investors saw earlier this month when stocks sold off on worries over the stability of Portugal’s largest bank.

A bicyclist pedals pass a Chipotle Mexican Grill in Beverly Hills, Calif. The Mexican fast food chain’s secondquarter sales jumped by 29 percent compared to the same period in 2013.

America’s Chipotle addiction Many will pay more for a high-quality burrito By Roberto A. Ferdman

Chipotle sales (projected through 2018)

The Washington Post

There are few things as smooth as Chipotle’s ability to sell more and more burritos seemingly each day, week and month, but certainly each quarter and every year. The Mexican fast food chain, which now slings billions of dollars in burritos (and burrito bowls) each year, saw its second quarter sales jump by 29 percent compared to the same period last year. Chipotle’s performance didn’t merely beat analyst estimates — it crushed them. The chain was forced to raise its prices earlier this year, after rising food costs swallowed a hefty chunk of the company’s profits. The expectation was that it would slow down store traffic, but instead same-store sales — sales at Chipotle restaurants open for at least 13 months — jumped by 18 percent. Chipotle’s annual sales are now expected to nearly eclipse $4 billion in 2014, according to Bloomberg estimates. That would mean 1,143 percent growth since 2003, and 377 percent growth since 2006, when the company went public. By 2018, Chipotle’s sales are slated to jump another 43 percent to more than $6.5 billion.

Sales growth has also significantly outpaced sheer restaurant growth (by a factor of almost two to one), meaning that there aren’t merely more Chipotles today, but each Chipotle is also selling more burritos on average than it used to. Chipotle’s unstoppable growth is actually fairly inconsistent with that of the rest of the American fast-food industry. McDonald’s has struggled to lure Americans as of late — its U.S. sales are expected to decline for a third consecutive quarter. Taco Bell, too — sales jumped after the launch of the Doritos Locos Tacos, but they have since fallen. In fact, the fast-food sector just isn’t doing all that well in the U.S. right now. Why has Chipotle managed

to grow so quickly? Mainly, the chain has capitalized on a bet that Americans were willing to pay a little more money for a lot more assurance about the origins of their fast food. The company’s message has carried with it a firm commitment to ingredients, animal treatment and the environment. While some have questioned the extent to which the chain follows through with that mission, it’s hard to deny that it has resonated with American fast-food goers. Chipotle is also phenomenally fast at slinging burritos — it’s most efficient branches can serve 350 customers per peak lunchtime hour. And it has fared well in an increasingly carb-conscious America by offering its popular tortilla-less burrito bowls.

Facebook, Amazon, Whole Foods offer subpar 401(k)s, study finds Bloomberg News NEW YORK— A first-of-itskind ranking of 401(k) plans at the 250 biggest companies in the United States found that ConocoPhillips and Abbott Laboratories are among those that provide the most lucrative retirement benefits. Among the least generous are Facebook, Amazon.com and Whole Foods Market. The natural-foods grocer offers a maximum contribution of $152 annually. ConocoPhillips topped the Bloomberg News rankings of the largest public companies’ 401(k) plans, largely due to a matching formula that contributes 9 percent of annual salaries for employees who save as little as 1 percent of their pay. Facebook finished last in the Bloomberg rankings, which were based on 2012 data. The

social media company didn’t offer any match at the time. It started making contributions in April to its 401(k) plan. One finding rings out clearly: when generously conceived, a 401(k) plan can put workers on the track for a comfortable and secure retirement. Created by federal legislation in 1978 as a supplement to traditional pensions, 401(k)s have supplanted them as corporate America’s primary retirement vehicle. In 2010, the Department of Labor began posting information online that the government had required companies to provide about their 401(k) plans. Yet the details were so difficult to access and understand that few employees could ever hope to decipher them. To bring clarity to the 401(k) universe, Bloomberg News reporters spent six months

tracking down and studying company filings. Bloomberg’s analysis focuses on what companies offer new hires. ConocoPhillips estimates that an employee could retire at 60 after 35 years of service with savings of $3.8 million, adjusted for inflation, assuming a starting salary of $75,000 and increases of 4 percent a year. While Google and Apple ranked in the top half, other tech giants such as Facebook, Amazon.com, Yahoo and Oracle lagged. One reason such companies scrimp on 401(k) plans is that some highly skilled employees share in stock ownership. Until this year, Facebook didn’t offer any match. This April, the company started making contributions of 50 cents on the dollar. Amazon matches up to 2 percent of employees’ salaries if they contribute 4 percent.

Burger King and Starbucks said their Chinese stores have stopped using meat from a supplier that local media accused of selling expired chicken and beef. The companies said that they launched investigations after hearing of the allegations against Shanghai Husi Food Co., owned by OSI Group of Aurora, Ill. The Shanghai Food and Drug Administration closed the food supplier’s plant there, after Dragon TV on Sunday reported workers took old beef and chicken and repackaged it with fresh expiration dates. The China Food and Drug Administration has ordered an investigation into all the company’s food factories in five Chinese provinces, the Official New China News Agency reported Tuesday.

Gas fuels increase in consumer prices U.S. consumer prices rose in June at a slightly slower pace than in May with twothirds of the June advance driven by the largest jump in gasoline prices in a year. Prices rose 0.3 percent in June following a 0.4 percent rise in May, the Labor Department reported Tuesday. Food costs edged up 0.1 percent, the smallest gain since January. Overall prices have risen 2.1 percent in the past 12 months. The AAA says the nationwide average for a gallon of gas stood at $3.57 on Monday, down from $3.68 a month ago and an indication that energy prices may be easing slightly.

Home sales rise for third straight month Sales of previously owned homes rose for a third straight month in June, providing evidence that housing is regaining lost momentum. The National Association of Realtors said Tuesday that sales of existing homes increased 2.6 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.04 million homes. Potential buyers have grappled with a limited supply of homes that is driving prices higher. Five years into the recovery from the deep recession that was triggered in part by the collapse in housing, home sales have yet to return to historic averages.

Microsoft earnings down in 4th quarter Microsoft Corp. reported fourth-quarter earnings that took a hit from the Nokia devices business that it bought in April, but the company said growth in Internet-based computing services to businesses boosted results. Net income in the three months through June 30 fell 7 percent to $4.61 billion, or 55 cents per share, from $4.97 billion, or 59 cents per share, a year ago. Microsoft announced last week that it is cutting up to 18,000 jobs over the next year, mostly related to Nokia. From Herald news services

One in every 25 New Yorkers is a millionaire, study says By Walter Hamilton Los Angeles Times (MCT)

Walk down the street in New York and you’re virtually guaranteed to see several millionaires. That’s because more than 1 in every 25 New Yorkers is a millionaire, according to a study

released Tuesday. The Big Apple ranks fourth in a listing of the top 20 global cities based on the portion of their populations whose net worth, excluding primary residence, tops $1 million. Altogether, 4.63 percent of New Yorkers, or 389,100 people,

are millionaires, according to the analysis by Spear’s magazine and consulting firm WealthInsight. “New York has long been the bastion of wealth not only in America, but the world,” said Oliver Williams, an analyst at WealthInsight. “It has the

second largest millionaire and largest billionaire population of any global city.” Monaco, Zurich and Geneva claimed the first three spots. Nearly 3 in 10 people in Monaco are millionaires. Houston at No. 18 and San Francisco at No. 19 were the

only other U.S. cities to make the list. In each city, a bit more than 2 percent of residents are millionaires. Not surprisingly, most of the highest-ranked cities are banking and financial centers, including Frankfurt (No. 5) and London (No. 6).

Forecaster: Next recession could be worst than the last From Page A10

markets, the old problem of relying on indebted Americans to buy more of their goods each year and not selling enough to their own people means a glut of underused factories. “The world hopes to ride on the coattails of the U.S. consumer,” says Eswar Prasad, an economist at Cornell University, “but the U.S. consumer isn’t in a position to take on the burden.” Emerging markets bounced back faster from the financial crisis than did rich countries, but Levy thinks a big reason for that has made things worse. Overseas companies plowed money into factories, machines and buildings used to make things on the assumption that exports, after snapping back from recession lows, would continue to grow at their prior pace. They have not, a big problem since companies had been investing too much to expand production before the crisis, too. “You build factories and stores, and they can’t pay for themselves,” says Levy, chairman of the Jerome Levy Forecasting Center, a consulting firm. “Businesses can’t generate profits, and they start to contract.”

U.S. is vulnerable Compared to such fragile economies, Levy says the U.S. is in decent shape. Like most

economists, he’s not worried about the nation’s 2.9 percent drop in economic output in the first quarter, attributing it to harsh winter weather. He expects growth to return, but not for long, as a recession in either Europe or emerging markets spreads to the U.S. Levy says the U.S. is more vulnerable to troubles abroad than people realize. Exports contributed 14 percent of U.S. economic output last year, up from 9 percent in 2002. That sounds like a good development, but it also makes the country more dependent on global growth, which, in turn, relies more on emerging markets. Those markets accounted for 50 percent of global output last year, up from 38 percent in 2002.

Investors may panic Levy predicts a U.S. recession will throw its housing recovery in reverse, and push home prices below the low in the last recession. He says panicked investors are likely to dump stocks and flood into U.S. Treasurys, a haven in troubled times, like never before. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite to its price, is likely to fall from 2.5 percent to less than 1 percent — an unprecedented low. In 2012, when investors feared a breakup of the euro-currency bloc, the 10-year yield fell to 1.4 percent.

It runs in the family His forecasts may seem a bit much, but Levy comes from a family with a good record of running against the crowd. His grandfather, Jerome, didn’t just call the Great Crash of 1929, he sold all his stock and liquidated his wholesale goods business in anticipation of it. Immediately after World War II, when many experts thought the U.S. was sure to fall into another depression, his father, Jay, accurately predicted a rapid expansion instead. In late 1999, his uncle, Leon Levy, a hedge fund manager and collector of antiquities, invited this reporter into his office, pointed to a bust of a rich Roman near his door and mused on the fleeting nature of fortune. He then predicted a new generation of wealthy would be laid low soon in a coming dot-com crash. Those stocks began their long dive a few months later.

It’s the debt, stupid For all the prescience from this latest Levy, he thinks the origin of the world’s economic malaise is far more complex and deep than investors focused on the housing collapse think. The problem is not just that people in the U.S. took on mortgages they couldn’t afford, but too much borrowing of many kinds in many countries, and by businesses as well as individuals. This buildup of excessive debt

started so long ago — Levy dates it to the 1980s in the U.S. — that people no longer know what’s prudent. Many economists, for instance, are impressed that debt held by U.S. households has fallen from 130 percent of annual take-home income before the crisis to 104 percent, suggesting that people aren’t borrowing too much. But what is a healthy level? Levy is not sure, but he suspects it’s a lot lower, noting that, in 1985, debt was 74 percent of people’s income. Whether all this means a U.S. recession is a different matter.

Opinions differ Steven Ricchiuto, chief economist at Mizuho Securities, also thinks people are missing signs of a coming global slowdown, but that the U.S. economy will continue to grow anyway. Daniel Alpert, author of a grim book called “Age of Oversupply” about the glut in exports from foreign countries that so worries Levy, doesn’t think the U.S. will fall into recession, either. And Cornell’s Prasad, who sees many of the same problems as Levy, suspects emerging economies may be “bottoming out,” suggesting investors buying their stocks now might not be so stupid after all. Still, Levy has proved more right than wrong lately. For a year now, some experts have been expecting a surge in

corporate spending on factories, machines and equipment in rich countries where it had lagged, and a continuation of strong spending in emerging markets. That would speed economic growth because such capital expenditures, even if wasteful, add to gross domestic product. But Levy has said the world already has spent too much expanding capacity to produce things, and the optimists are wrong. Last month came proof. A Standard and Poor’s report showed capital expenditures, adjusted for inflation, dropped by 1 percent globally last year, and by 4 percent in emerging markets — a reversal from decades of ever bigger outlays.

Worries loom That may be healthy in the long run. But as China tries to contain the fallout from a deflating real estate bubble, India grows at its slowest pace in a quarter century, Brazil teeters on recession and Russia may have already sunk into one, the timing is awful. Last week there was bad news from the eurozone. Industrial production in the 18 countries that share the euro currency fell 0.5 percent in the year through May, suggesting that even the modest recovery there might be stalling. You don’t have to buy Levy’s gloomy predictions to see the world may be at a worrisome crossroads.

IN OUR VIEW | 1st CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT

Re-elect Rep. Suzan DelBene Rep. Suzan DelBene has been a gridlock-defying lawmaker, ably shepherding NSA reforms and bird-dogging relief efforts after the Oso mudslide. She is the most prolific, effective member of her freshman class and deserves reelection. A member of the minority party in the least productive Congress in U.S. history, DelBene nevertheless has managed to craft policy and represent the diverse interests of the gerrymandered 1st District. In 2014, incremental success is something of a miracle. The colossal farm bill is a case study. DelBene weaved in an employment and training pilot modeled after Washington state’s Basic, Food,

Employment and Training program. She also helped secure funding for specialty crops and organic farming, a boon to Washington’s fruit and vegetable farmers. On the NSA, DelBene co-cosponsored the successful Massie-Lofgren amendment, which nixes the use of appropriated funds to enable government agencies to collect and search the communications of U.S. citizens without a warrant. On Sunday, DelBene presented Darrington Mayor Dan Rankin with a presidentialsigning pen and a copy of the Green Mountain Lookout Heritage Protection Act, a small but meaningful win that will benefit the Stillaguamish Valley. “It’s one of the few bills that

passed this year,” DelBene said without irony. The challenge for DelBene’s opponents is delivering a credible “I’d-do-better” message. The easiest strategy is to hitch DelBene to an unpopular president and conflate her record with all-things-Obama. But her opponents still need to embroider criticism with substance. Pedro Celis is DelBene’s most formidable challenger. An immigrant from Mexico with a computer science doctorate, Celis retired from Microsoft in 2012 after attaining the rank of “distinguished engineer.” He doesn’t support comprehensive immigration reform in its current form, although he underscored that deporting 11-20 million people is

impractical. Celis also embraces re-authorization of the ExportImport Bank, the 80-year-old institution that promotes U.S. exports and costs taxpayers zero. For Republican candidate Ed Moats the ex-im bank reflects “crony capitalism,” a position shared by Republican Robert Sutherland, a traditional conservative with a grass-roots message. Moats and Sutherland are wrong, but if elected they’ll find an amen corner among House Republicans. On the Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby decision, all three Republicans believe it’s about religious liberty, not reproductive health. Celis is a smart moderate who is encouraged to remain active in public life. Re-elect Suzan DelBene.

Last election cycle 32,000 Washingtonians found the information they needed through VOTE411.org, many of them young people and first-time voters. VOTE411.org is convenient, easy and empowering. I’m sharing it with my friends and family to help them prepare for Election Day on Aug. 5, and I know many others will too. I hope this information will encourage Snohomish County residents to return more ballots — to do better — in this primary election. Lynn Carpenter President, League of Women Voters of Snohomish County

■■PRIMARY

Please vote for new personnel Well, here it is, primary season. Once again we get to exercise our most precious right as citizens. Yes, it’s only a primary, but that is where your candidate comes from. It is time to look at how this state is being run. Are you happy with it? If you are, then by all means, send the current power structure back to Olympia to accomplish more of the same. After all, it’s only money. Ours! The ruling party has gotten us to where we are today. They are not going to change, ever! If we were to send all of them home and elect brand new legislators, we could not possibly be worse off than we are right now. I am tired of these folks “fighting for us.” It seems to me they have lost. Just a thought. Phil Bate Lynnwood

GUEST COMMENTARY | FOREST PRACTICES MUST CHANGE

Healthy logging prevents raging infernos By Jessica Karraker

W

hen our overpopulated forests are rife with standing dead and diseased trees, a single heat source finds this to be the opportune fuel source for a catastrophic chain reaction, the type we are currently witnessing. The Chiwaukum fire in Leavenworth, after being put out, will look similar to the Tumwater Canyon along U.S. 2 and the Entiat Ridge in 20 years. In 1994, three areas burned, referred to as The Hatchery Creek Complex, Rat Creek, and The Tyee Fire. Twenty years later, you can still see the damage that was done to our forests from raging flames that burned intensely through overpopulated forests, depleting the soil of nutritional value that allows for regeneration. These fires started on July 24, 1994 and were not out until Dec. 24. Had the U.S. Forest Service gone into these timberlands, or had the work bid on by loggers to thin out overpopulated areas, we would not be seeing as aggressive of fires; and the men and women

who are currently attempting to cease this beast would have a better chance of stopping it. Our forests are not being properly managed because the fear is that loggers will displace an owl by felling a tree, harming the homes of native species, or running out wildlife. But by mismanaging our forests on false practices and data, we have now created the perfect situation for a catastrophic chain reaction that is threatening communities, destroying wildlife habitat, and putting lives of men and women on the line. Fires that have the opportunity to ignite in these densely over populated tree stands burn faster, more intense, unpredictably, and create their own weather systems within the smoke columns, creating spot fires. Had our forests been managed, right now we would be seeing a lower intensity fire that would crawl along the ground instead of burning up the trees, crowning, and jumping farther and faster. Healthy logging is not clear-cutting. Healthy logging is thinning

trees, eliminating the standing dead and diseased, allowing for the conservation of our timberland, creating and maintaining healthy forests for humans to enjoy and for animals to live in, and avoid risking lives of those who are fighting to protect our homes and community. We need to become informed and act on the knowledge that these forest management policies are just policies. We need to bang down the doors of our elected representatives so that we the people can make a change and create a plan of action so that in the future we may be able to avoid high intensity fires that have been proven to destroy the mineral integrity of the land that it burns, causing it to be uninhabitable. We have the right to be heard and to make a change for the betterment of our community, natural resources, and the wildlife we have the privilege of sharing our forests with. Our forests have the right to be conserved, not preserved. Jessica Karraker lives in Ellensburg.

Stop cities from setting state law

F

rustrated with gridlock in capital cities, including the big one on the Potomac, progressive activists have turned their attention to blue metros. Cities like Seattle, San Francisco and Portland are their new darlings. Michelle Goldberg writes in The Nation, an unabashedly left-wing political magazine, “[C]ities are … becoming laboratories for progressive policy innovation.” The wave has been building for more than a decade. But elections of liberal mayors like Ed Murray in Seattle and Bill De Blasio in New York City give it new momentum. Coalitions committed to raising the minimum wage and boosting union membership handed the freshly elected a first-year agenda. In Seattle, things moved swiftly and the $15 minimum wage is being phased in. New York City and Portland, however, face the salutary hurdle of state laws prohibiting cities from setting their own minimum wage. Such preemption makes sense. Consider the political context that has placed cities at the center of resurgent progressive populism. After Obama took office, hope soared but change stumbled. His health care reform passed with no Republican support and remains unpopular nationally. When Republicans gained the House, progressives’ progress stalled. While the president RICHARD S. DAVIS has vowed to bypass Congress, there are limits to his executive authority. The liberal domestic agenda will be on hold for the balance of his presidency. Historically, when movement stalls in the nation’s capital, states fill the vacuum. Justice Louis Brandeis described states as laboratories of democracy in 1932, seeing them as vehicles for progressive experimentation. States can still serve that role, as Washington has shown in environmental regulation, the minimum wage, and pre-Obamacare health care reform. Gov. Inslee wants to build on the tradition. But divided legislatures have successfully stymied the more ambitious agendas of liberal governors, including Inslee’s. It’s natural. State government will tend toward moderation as a function of demographic and economic diversity. Most states have something resembling Washington’s Cascade Curtain. Anyone who has seen those red-blue presidential election maps charting votes by county understands the dynamic. Low-density red seas surround urban islands of blue. In addition, legislative processes are designed to make sweeping change difficult. Cities are different. Many large metro areas lack political diversity. New York Times reporter Annie Lowrey accurately described Seattle politicians as ranging “from left to far-left.” The checks-and-balances that inhibit change in state capitals don’t operate the same way at City Hall. But an urban go-it-alone strategy has consequences for state and regional economies. Urbanist scholar Joel Kotkin recently took note of the celebration of progressive big city mayors. Commenting on mayoral assertions that cities are where the action is, Kotkin writes, “It’s hard to underestimate the hubris of this assessment … the vast majority of American demographic growth and job growth continues to go either into the suburban rings or to low-density sprawling regions.” For a time, cities like Seattle can withstand the costs of high taxes, mandated employee compensation and extraordinary regulatory burdens. The benefits of being in a dynamic city with extraordinary resources — professional sports, the arts, universities and research institutions, transportation networks and skilled labor — can temporarily offset high costs. Eventually, though, business will migrate to communities offering similar amenities with lower costs, affordable housing and better schools. Some will look at the region and forego the risk of locating or expanding here. Those that stick face an increasing costly, unpredictable labor environment. To prevent a patchwork of inconsistent employment policies, a dozen states have preempted local governments from setting their own minimum wages. Absent those policies, Portland and New York City might have a $15 minimum wage now, making their inclement business climates even less hospitable. Preemption is nothing new. Here, state law overrides local efforts to regulate gun rights and smoking policies. But there’s no such constraint on employment policies like paid sick leave and minimum wage. There should be. The Elway Poll reports that Washington voters support a uniform statewide minimum wage by a 49-43 margin. Big cities are not islands. What they do affects the rest of the state. State law should limit the ability of urban activists to threaten the health of the larger economy. Efforts to pass preemption legislation in Olympia failed this year. Backers should keep trying.

Come to Scarsella Ranch For Great Prices & Service!

Happy Birthday: This is the year to call in favors and to make the changes you’ve been considering and leave the past behind you. Start with your current status at work and at home and search for the perfect way to step up your game and improve your skill set. Your numbers are 5, 17, 22, 26, 33, 37, 49. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Follow your heart and head in a direction that feels natural, enticing and opportunistic. Doors are opening, but you may have to close some in order to take on something new. �� TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Keep everything simple. Discuss your plans and form appropriate partnerships with people who have something to contribute. Be creative and you’ll be able to get ahead. Put a little passion into everything you do. ��� GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you cannot keep a secret, you may jeopardize an opportunity. Improve your work habits and your efforts will be recognized and rewarded. Don’t overreact; doing so will stand between you and what you want. ��� CANCER (June 21-July 22): Don’t make changes based on anger or assumptions. Use your insight and you’ll come up with a plan that will help you overcome any setback that comes into play. ��� LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Make changes, but stay within your financial boundaries. Being the best that you can be and offering your time and services will help boost your reputation and your popularity in public and at home. ���� VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If you don’t

do the legwork, no one else will. Show your strengths and encourage others to pitch in and help. You can be a hero if you show dedication and a desire to help others. �� LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’ll face both good and bad things today. Refuse to let personal matters interfere with business and vice-versa. It’s important that you don’t make impulsive moves based on unrealistic demands. ����� SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Deal with tedious paperwork quickly and get on with your day. Romance should be high on your to-do list along with pampering, self-improvement projects and making your surroundings more enjoyable. ��� SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Jump in and make the changes that will make you happy. You may not please everyone, but you will discover who you want to share your future with. ��� CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t feel obligated to please everyone else. You should be excited about any changes taking place as well. Bide your time and look for the secure route that promises to please everyone. ��� AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A proposal or influx of cash will put a smile on your face. Cash will come from an unexpected source. An opportunity to start something new will show potential if you are consistent, methodical and disciplined. ����� PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Put more time and effort into home and family. Fixing up your surroundings will lift spirits and bring you closer to the people who count most in your life. �� Universal Uclick

M’s waste Ramirez’s fine outing By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

TODAY’S GAME

N.Y. Mets at Seattle, 12:40 p.m.

TV: Root (cable) Radio: ESPN (710 AM)

SEATTLE — The first impulse for any Seattle Mariners fan, after a game like Tuesday’s 3-1 loss to the New York Mets, is likely to be a renewed call for general manager Jack Zdruriencik to find a bat to aid a suspect lineup.

So go ahead and grumble. Yell, even, if it makes you feel better. This loss underscored the need for that bat, although all indications suggest Zduriencik is working to get one (or more). The Mariners appear to be linked though the rumor mill to every hitter who might be available. Whatever happens, though, will

come too late to reward a fine performance by right-hander Erasmo Ramirez, who worked seven strong innings after being recalled earlier in the day from Class AAA Tacoma. Ramirez (1-5) matched a career high with 10 strikeouts while yielding just five hits, but still exited trailing 2-1 because the Mariners mustered little against

Mets right-hander Jacob deGrom. New York extended its lead to 3-1 when Lucas Duda crushed a one-out homer against Tom Wilhelmsen in the eighth inning. Duda’s drive struck the advertising board at the front of the second deck in right field. See M’S, Page C4

Former Snohomish High School and Seattle Pacific University basketball player Sydney Benson is transitioning from her athletic career to working with educational nonprofits in both the U.S. and Russia.

New team, new role A basketball standout in high school and college, Snohomish native Sydney Benson has turned her focus from hoops to helping others Story by Rich Myhre

s a basketball player, Sydney Benson was good enough to make a difference. She led her Snohomish High School team to the Class 4A state championship game in 2004-05, and then played three seasons at Eastern Washington University and a fourth season at Seattle Pacific University. Though now retired from basketball, Benson is still looking to make a difference. The 26-year-old Benson, who has traveled extensively in recent years — including living most of the past two years in Russia — has taken a job with a non-profit organization known as FEED-DS, an acronym for the Federation of Education and Entrepreneurial Development with Dignity and Sustainability. The FEED-DS team, led by president John Stewart of Snohomish, is tasked with improving health issues and medical awareness in developing countries.

“We kind of say (the organization’s mission statement) through a proverb,” said Benson, who is spending a few weeks this summer back in Snohomish. “Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime. … If we can inspire individuals who can then teach others, those communities will become even more modern.” The chance to serve other people is, as Benson puts it, “one of my love languages.” And the chance to do it internationally allows her to enjoy another of her passions — foreign languages. She was a French major at SPU with a minor in Russian, and after college she decided to seek work in one of those countries. She was hoping for France, but it turned out there were more opportunities in Russia. She has lived in Moscow the past two years, first

EVERETT — The Northwest League hit the reset button Tuesday, and Everett AquaSox manager Dave Valle had a oneword reaction: “Hallelujah!” The season’s first half ended Monday, meaning every team’s record reverted back to 0-0 Tuesday for the start of the second half. For the Sox, that meant slamming the book on what was a historically bad half of baseball. “I think back to my grade school days when the teacher would take that wet rag and just wipe the slate clean,” Valle said. “That’s what we’re doing today.” Monday’s 3-0 loss at Spokane Kyle Petty gave Everett a “Obviously, final first-half we struggled record of 11-27. a little bit in That’s the worst the first half.” record in a half since the Northwest League adopted the split season in 2010. The previous worst mark was the 12-26 record Spokane suffered through in the first half of 2012. Everett’s struggles were consistent throughout the first half. The Sox lost all 10 of their first-half series, and they have yet to win back-to-back games this season. Therefore, the Sox are ready for the fresh start. “Yeah, it’s very good (to get a fresh start),” Sox first baseman/ catcher Kyle Petty said. “Obviously, we struggled a little bit in the first half. “We had a lot of moves early, guys going up and down, and we had a hard time trying to solidify that lineup and make things jell,” Petty added. “Having new guys come in and out makes it a little tough.” The biggest issue for Everett in the season’s first half was offense.

Lake Stevens QB Eason ‘didn’t want to lose the spot’ at Georgia By David Krueger Herald Writer

Jacob Eason didn’t plan to make a college commitment when he arrived at the University of Georgia last weekend. But after touring the campus and talking with the school’s football coaches, the Lake Stevens quarterback couldn’t envision playing anywhere else. Over the weekend, Eason,

considered one of the top QBs in the nation in the Class of 2016, made a verbal commitment to play for the Bulldogs. The commitment is non-binding. Eason can’t officially sign an NCAA letter of intent until February of 2016. “I really didn’t have any intention of committing on my way down there,” he said. “I was going to go check out a few schools and make my decision a little later. But I went

to Georgia and everything fit perfectly. I love the school, the area, the coaches and the academics. I figured, ‘Why wait?’ I didn’t want to lose the spot.” Eason’s visit to Geogia was part of a trip through The Deep South with his mother, father and sister that included unofficial visits to Alabama, Florida State and, finally, Athens, Georgia. “I had high expectations going into Athens,” Eason said.

“Everything was awesome. I love it down there.” The Georgia coaches, including offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Mike Bobo, were some of the first to recruit Eason. Their dedication and commitment played a large part in his decision to commit early. “They’ve always been the school,” Eason said. “The coaches have been the most involved. Coach Bobo came all the way up to Washington

to watch me throw twice. That’s more than any other school and that’s a four-and-a-half-hour flight.

the league, yet the Sox finished dead last in the league in batting at .229, and they were second-tolast in runs scored with 145. The Sox also struck out 354 times, an average of 9.3 per game. That’s a pace short of the league record for strikeouts in a season — 791 by Everett in 2007 — but it’s in the ballpark. “We need to play better baseball in every facet of the game,” Valle said. “We need to catch the ball better, which I think we’re capable of doing. We clearly need to hit the ball better and strike out less, put the ball in play a little bit more. Good things happen when you make good solid contact. That’s our goal for the second half.” The Sox also were victimized by one-run losses. Everett finished 4-12 in games decided by a single run. “We lost a lot of one-run games, and that makes it tough,” Petty said. “But the last couple days we’ve been in some tight games and pulled out some wins. Hopefully the tide is turning and we can start winning those onerun games. That’s what makes or breaks your record, those close games. If you can find a way to win those it can take you a long way. “It’s about staying confident, trusting each other as a whole unit, and realizing we can win those one-run games,” Petty added. “We’ve battled back late in games and that just goes to show it’s not over until it’s over, we have to realize that if we’re down two runs in the eighth it’s not over.” And the Sox are hoping the start of the second half flips the switch.

SEATTLE — The Seattle Storm did everything they could to compete with the Phoenix Mercury on Tuesday, but the WNBA’s best team proved too much to overcome. The Mercury’s 89-71 win over Seattle extended their winning streak to a franchise-record 13 games, the longest winning streak in the WNBA this season. “Phoenix is tough,” Storm center Crystal Langhorne said. “You have to play them really well. You have to execute. You can’t have any slipups against them because they take advantage of your turnovers and they score at such a good efficiency.” The victory also clinched a playoff spot for Phoenix. They are the first team to secure a postseason berth so far this season. The Storm turned the ball over 22 times and the Mercury turned those turnovers into 31 points, significantly more than the 18-point margin of victory. “Phoenix is a heck of a team,” Agler said. “But if I had to evaluate our issues tonight, I thought we gave them a lot

of easy opportunities with our turnovers.” The Storm had just three turnovers in the first quarter. As a result, the game remained close for much of the period. Phoenix led 7-0 just over a minute into the game, but the Storm answered with a 14-5 run to take its first lead with 3:24 remaining in the opening quarter. Seattle led twice in the quarter, but never led again the rest of the game. After Alysha Clark’s left-handed runner in the key tied the score at 21 with 6.2 seconds remaining in the first, Penny Taylor’s 3-pointer at the buzzer gave Phoenix the lead for good. Diana Taurasi helped extend the Mercury’s lead by scoring eight points in the first 2½ minutes of the second quarter. “We missed some baskets and they scored and then Diana hit two 3s in the second quarter and the next thing you know it’s a 10-point game at halftime,” Langhorne said. Taurasi finished with 22 points, 17 of which came in the first 14 minutes of the game. Not only did Taurasi lead Phoenix in scoring, but she also dished six assists and grabbed five rebounds. Candice

Dupree (19 points), Brittney Griner (17 points) and DeWanna Bonner (10 points) joined Taurasi in double figures. “I’ve been in this league a long time and they are one of the better offensive teams I’ve seen come through here,” Agler said. “I’m not talking about their numbers and how many points they score. I’m talking more or less about the pressure they put on you at a lot of different positions and how they space the floor. To beat a team like this you’ve really got to eliminate your mistakes.” The Storm, who were led offensively by Langhorne’s 22 points, trailed by as many as 22, fighting back to get within 10 in the second half. Still, Phoenix always had an answer. “Today was a tough game,” Taurasi said. “I think for the most part both teams were playing pretty well. In the third (quarter), we just made a little run and created more separation. That’s what got us over the hump.” With nine games remaining, the Storm are 21⁄2 games behind Los Angeles for the fourth and final playoff spot. The Sparks own the tiebreaker should the two teams finish the season tied.

Cavaliers plan to sign No. 1 pick Wiggins But will the rookie ever play for them? Associated Press BCLEVELAND — Andrew Wiggins will sign his rookie contract with the Cavaliers. It’s still not clear if he’ll play for them. A person familiar with the negotiations says the Cavs will sign the No. 1 overall pick to his deal, an agreement that would prevent any potential trade involving the small forward from being completed for 30 days. The Minnesota Timberwolves and Cavaliers have been discussing a potential deal that would send All-Star forward Kevin Love to the Cavaliers for Wiggins, Anthony Bennett and other pieces. The person familiar with the talks says Wiggins will sign with Cleveland as early as Wednesday. The person spoke to The Associated Press on Tuesday on condition of anonymity because the team is not commenting on its plans. The Cavs and Timberwolves have had ongoing discussions about a trade for Love since before Cleveland selected Wiggins first in May. The Timberwolves have always insisted that Wiggins be involved in any package, a stipulation the Cavaliers initially resisted. To help in their pursuit of Love, the Cavs traded guard Carrick Felix to Utah on Tuesday for three players with non-guaranteed contracts. Cleveland acquired guard John Lucas III and forwards Malcolm Thomas and Erik Murphy from the Jazz in exchange for Felix, a second-round draft pick and cash considerations. The trade will allow the Cavs to clear $3.3 million in salary cap space, room to potentially sign Love or other players. Wiggins’ inclusion in any deal has been a sticking point for the Cavs. Last week, two people familiar with the discussions said the

follow college recruiting. The website 247Sports lists him as the No. 1 recruit for the state of Washington in the Class of 2016 and No. 14 in the country. ESPN.com rates the 6-foot5, 205-pound Eason as the nation’s top pocket passer in the Class of 2016. Lake Stevens head coach Tom Tri said he wasn’t surprised Eason committed to Georgia. “I just want him to go to the right fit and have a chance to be successful and get a good education and have a chance to play on Saturdays,” Tri said. “I know they’ve been recruiting him very hard and have been very, very interested.”

team was not willing to include Wiggins in a deal. But as talks continued this week, the Cavaliers have softened their stance on including Wiggins, who played well during the team’s summer league in Las Vegas, to try and get superstar LeBron James another veteran All-Star teammate. The Cavs have considered acquiring Love and teaming him with James, who recently announced he was returning to Cleveland and signed a twoyear, $42.1 million deal with the team. With Love, James and All-Star point guard, Cleveland would have a “Big 3” comparable to what Miami had in James and All-Stars Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. The Timberwolves have also had discussions with the Chicago Bulls, Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors, among other teams, in recent weeks as they entertain offers for Love, who can opt out of his contract next summer and has told Minnesota he wants to play for a contender. Signing Wiggins to a contract wouldn’t necessarily prevent a trade from eventually happening. Under league rules, Wiggins cannot be officially traded for 30 days after he signs. But the Timberwolves and Cavaliers could come to some sort of agreement before that end date and then execute the trade after the window closes. Signing Wiggins could make a trade easier to complete. League rules require teams that are at or over the salary cap to exchange packages of similar dollar values when they make trades. Before Wiggins signs a deal, he has a contract of $0, so his inclusion does not help the Cavaliers get closer to the $15.7 million value they would receive with Love’s contract. But when he does sign, Wiggins will have a value of around $5.5 million, which would get the Cavaliers a big step closer to the 80 percent of Love’s contract that they need to reach to make any deal conform to league rules. Having to wait that long to finalize a deal does complicate the negotiating process, with

Eason’s commitment over the weekend set social media ablaze, with several blogs and Georgia fans tweeting that Eason is the Bulldogs’ biggest recruiting catch since quarterback Matthew Stafford. Stafford played three seasons at Georgia before entering the NFL draft. The Detroit Lions made him the No.1 pick in the 2009 draft. Eason enjoyed the comparison. “That is cool,” he said. “We were down there in the film room and coach Bobo and the coaching staff were showing us some video (of Stafford). We’re a similar playing style, both strong pocket guys with big arms. It’s awesome being compared to Matthew Stafford. He was a firstround draft pick and that’s what I would love to do.” Along with Eason, Georgia got another top commit last weekend in Ben Cleveland,

both teams leery of the other backing out during that monthlong moratorium. If the Timberwolves and Cavaliers do come to an agreement, the trade could evolve into a three-team deal. The Wolves have been searching for another team to bring another established, veteran player to the package while potentially moving guard J.J. Barea or other contracts to create room for the incoming players.

Sterling files new lawsuit LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has filed a new lawsuit in his attempt to retain the team and derail a potential $2 billion sale. The lawsuit filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court names estranged wife Shelly Sterling, the NBA and Commissioner Adam Silver, saying they committed fraud and violated corporate law in their attempt to sell the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. The suit lists many arguments already being heard in a probate court trial on the legality of the Ballmer deal. They include Sterling’s assertion that he’s the team’s sole owner, that his wife deceived him in persuading him to get mental examinations and that the NBA and Ballmer colluded to deprive him of his rights as owner.

Rivers to quit if Sterling stays? LOS ANGELES — The interim CEO of the Los Angeles Clippers testified Tuesday that coach Doc Rivers told him he will quit if Donald Sterling remains the owner of the team. CEO Richard Parsons made the statement at a trial to determine whether Sterling’s wife Shelly Sterling can sell the team for $2 billion to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. The NBA has tried to force out Donald Sterling since soon after racist statements emerged on recordings in April. “Doc is troubled by this maybe moreso than anybody else,” Parsons said on the witness stand about Rivers, who is black. “If Mr. Sterling continues as owner, he does not want to continue as coach.” Parsons said he fears there would also be an exodus of key players, including team captain Chris Paul, who also is black and heads the NBA players union.

the No. 3 offensive tackle in the Class of 2016, according to 247Sports. Eason and Cleveland met at a camp in Baltimore and became fast friends. Eason plans on rooming with Cleveland, who lives in north Georgia, when the two join the Bulldogs in 2016. “I feel comfortable now getting a big guy like that protecting my blindslide,” Eason said. “... We lived thousands of miles apart but we’re great friends. Now we’re going to be going to school together. It should be fun.” With his commitment out of the way, Eason is eager to get started on his junior season. “Now I can just go back to Lake Stevens and focus on the high school season,” he said. “The future is taken care of. I can focus on high school and winning a state championship with my team.”

AQUASOX | Update TONIGHT’S GAME Boise at Everett 7:05 p.m., Everett Memorial Stadium Radio: KRKO (1380 AM) Probable starting pitchers: Everett right-hander Lucas Schiraldi (0-1, 4.91 earned run average) vs. Boise right-hander Joshua Conway (0-0, 3.12)

Tenbrink’s slam powers the AquaSox By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Everett AquaSox hope Tuesday was a preview the second half of the Northwest League season. Nate Tenbrink, on a rehab assignment from Class AAA Tacoma, crushed a grand slam home run, and three pitchers combined on a three-hit shutout as the Sox topped the Boise Hawks 6-0 at Everett Memorial Stadium in the first game of a five-game series. The first half of the season ended Monday, with Everett finishing a league-worst 11-27. However, the Sox got the second half started in impressive fashion Tuesday. Everett got all its offense in the bottom of the fourth inning. The first two runs scored on a wild pitch, followed by an infield single by Austin Cousino. Boise reliever Brad Markey was brought into the game with the bases loaded and Tenbrink greeted him by smashing his first pitch over the homer porch in right and out of the stadium, increasing the lead to six. That was more than enough offensive support for Jeffeson Medina and company. Medina threw six strong innings, allowing three hits and three walks while striking out five to earn the win. Then Logan Bowcom and Cruz Pereira combined for three hitless innings of relief. Cousino and James Alfonso each finished 2-for-4 for Everett (1-0 second half, 12-27 overall). Mark Zagunis went 1-for-2 and walked twice to lead Boise (0-1, 22-17).

More rehabbers Two players from Class AAA Tacoma joined the Sox on Tuesday to begin rehabilitation stints. Utilityman Nate Tenbrink, who made his professional debut with Everett in 2008, was in the lineup Tuesday in left field. Tenbrink, who also plays in the infield, is recovering from back problems that limited him to one game with Tacoma this season and have kept him on the disabled list since April 8. Last season, the 27-year-old from Olathe, Kansas, batted .267 with 15 home runs and 60 RBI in 124 games with the Rainiers. He’s expected to spend a handful of games with the Sox. Relief pitcher Logan Bawcom pitched an inning Tuesday. He’s been on the disabled list since June 13 because of a strained oblique muscle. At the time, the 25-year-old from Dallas, Texas, was 2-4 with a 5.55 earned run average in 25 relief appearances with the Rainiers.

Merchants fall to Studs Herald staff TACOMA — Two errors and a disputed fair ball call cost the Everett Merchants not only the game, but also the league championship as Everett fell to the Seattle Studs 3-2 in a Pacific International League contest on Tuesday night. The Studs rallied in the eighth inning after two costly defensive mistakes by the Merchants. Former Everett player Nate Mullins then drove in the go-ahead run on what looked at first to be a foul ball down the right-field line. However, the umpire called the ball fair, giving Seattle the win and the league title. Everett (18-6 in league) finishes in second place in the PIL behind the Studs. The Merchants next play Aug. 2 in the National Baseball Congress World Series in Wichita, Kansas.

Locals in the pros

Red Sox pick up former Lake Stevens standout from Royals Herald staff The Boston Red Sox acquired left-handed pitcher Ryan Verdugo from the Kansas City Royals organization last week. Verdugo, 27, is a graduate of Lake Stevens High School. In exchange for Verdugo, who was pitching at Triple-A Omaha, the Royals received cash, the BostonHerald.com reported. In nine games at Omaha, Verdugo was 5-2 with a 4.24 earned-run average and 44 strikeouts in 44⅔ innings. He spent much of the first two months of the season rehabbing an injury. Boston assigned Verdugo to Triple-A Pawtucket. He made his debut Saturday, throwing 1⅔ scoreless innings against Buffalo. He allowed just one hit and struck out four.

Rookie right-hander to start against Mets Wednesday

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Right-hander Taijuan Walker will return Wednesday from a two-start remedial tour at Triple-A Tacoma to start for the Seattle Mariners in their series finale against the New York Mets at Safeco Field. The Mariners will make a corresponding move prior to the game to clear space for Walker. In all likelihood, right-hander Erasmo Ramirez, who started Tuesday, will be optioned back to Tacoma. Walker, 21, has been generally regarded as the organization’s top prospect over the last two years but has spent much of this season battling a sore shoulder that surfaced in spring training. “I definitely just want to get on a routine and roll with it,” he said. “It kind of sucks being out for a couple weeks. Getting back, then shut down again. Back up and down. It would be nice to pitch well then get back on a roll.” The Mariners opted to recall Walker over using long reliever Tom Wilhelmsen for another spot start.

Wilhelmsen worked 22⁄3 innings in a July 10 spot start against Minnesota and pitched four innings of relief in last Friday’s 16-inning loss to the Angels in Anaheim, Calif. “My bullpen has been taxed,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “It still intrigues me about Wilhelmsen (possibly shifting to the rotation at some point in the future). We just can’t do it right now.” McClendon pointed to using his bullpen for 201⁄3 innings over the four games since the All-Star break. The Mariners returned from the break by playing 16 innings and 12 innings in their first two games in Anaheim. “The Anaheim series was just too grueling for us,” McClendon said. “We’ve got to back off a little bit.” The Mariners recalled Ramirez from Tacoma prior to Tuesday’s game after clearing roster space by optioning first baseman Justin Smoak to the Rainiers. Walker was 1-1 while allowing four runs and seven hits in 10 innings over two starts just prior to the All-Star Game. He was then optioned to Tacoma to enable him to keep pitching over

the break. He made two starts for the Rainiers and won both games but lasted just five innings each time because of high pitch counts. He gave up three runs and 11 hits in 10 innings while striking out just two and walking four. “Could be better, could be worse,” Walker said. “After this last start, I finally found what I needed to fix. I’ve been hammering that the past couple days in the bullpen. “I felt like I was flying open. Watching video from last year and this year — my lower half, there’s no drive, no legs in it. When I did use my legs it was still flying open. “I noticed (on tape) last year I was closed off more when I finished. This year, I just feel like everything was open.” The Mariners opted to recall Ramirez and Walker after choosing to provide Hisashi Iwakuma and Felix Hernandez with an extra day of rest following their first post-break starts. Iwakuma and Hernandez will pitch Thursday and Friday in the first two games of a fourgame weekend series against the Baltimore Orioles at Safeco Field.

Trade rumors continue to swirl around Mariners

From Page C1

That’s how it ended. DeGrom (4-5) allowed only one run and five hits in seven innings before Jeurys Familia and Jenrry Mejia closed out the victory. Mejia pitched the ninth for his 12th save in 14 chances Ramirez deserved better. The two runs he surrendered resulted largely from a decision by center fielder James Jones to gamble on a sliding shoestring catch with a runner at first and no outs in the second inning. Jones failed to make the catch on Travis d’Arnaud’s sinking liner, and the result was an RBI triple. D’Arnaud scored later in the inning on a bloop single. Tough. The last time that Ramirez worked seven innings in a big-league game was April 1 — yes, April Fool’s Day — in an 8-3 victory over the Angels in Anaheim, Calif. That was the second game of the season. That was 12 starts ago. That was also Ramirez’s last victory in the big leagues. (He is 2-5 this season in 10 minor-league starts.) The wild-card news wasn’t good, either. The Mariners’ four closest pursuers all won, so their lead in the chase for the American League’s final postseason spot is down to 11⁄2 games over the Yankees and Blue Jays. The Indians are two back, and the Royals 31⁄2. DeGrom appeared vulnerable in the first inning when the Mariners put a runner at second base with one out, but he struck out Robinson Cano and Kyle Seager. Bobby Abreu then opened the second inning by poking a single past Seager at third, and d’Arnaud followed with a sinking liner into center field … and it was 1-0.

Mariners starting pitcher Erasmo Ramirez struck out 10 Mets in seven innings.

Ramirez struck out Kirk Nieuwenhuis but walked Juan Lagares after jumping ahead 0-2 in the count. Ruben Tejada then chipped a soft liner into short center for an RBI single and a 2-0 lead. That was enough. DeGrom yielded a single to Endy Chavez to start the first inning, but the Mariners didn’t get another hit until Willie Bloomquist squirted a one-out single through the right side in the fifth. That quickly turned into the Mariners’ only run when Dustin Ackley drove an RBI double into the right-center field. A wild relay throw by second baseman Daniel Murphy to the plate permitted Ackley to take third. Again, the Mariners couldn’t produce the hit they needed. The Mets shortened their infield for Mike Zunino, whose fly to short left was too shallow to score the run. DeGrom held the lead when Chavez grounded out to second.

SEATTLE — The Seattle Mariners are showing interest in Pittsburgh outfielder Starling Marte, according to a report in the Beaver County (Pa.) Times. The report also said it’s “unclear if the Pirates are willing to part with their left fielder after signing him to a five-year, $31-million contract in spring training.” The Pirates have a surplus of outfielders — they recently optioned Jose Tabata to Triple-A Indianapolis. The report also says they are interested in Walker and two Tacoma infielders, Nick Franklin and Chris Taylor. Marte, 25, would, potentially, fill the Mariners’ need for an impact righthanded bat, although he is having a disappointing season: a .255/.328/.385 slash (batting average, on-base percentage, slugging percentage.) He has five homers and 34 RBI in 86 games. Some attribute his disappointing season to dealing with the deaths of a close friend and his mother-in-law. Add Miami third baseman Casey McGehee to the Mariners’ list of rumors trade targets, according to CBSSports.com. McGehee, 31, is batting .322 in 97 games for the Marlins. He has 56 RBI despite hitting just two homers and has provided reliable protection in the Miami lineup for All-Star outfielder Giancarlo Stanton. The Mariners, presumably, would shift McGehee to first base, although he has spent time in the outfield. He is signed through the end of the season for $1.1 million, which means roughly $400,000 remains on his deal.

Seahawks ranked No. 1 in AP NFL power rankings Associated Press NEW YORK — The Seattle Seahawks start the preseason right where they ended last season, as the No. 1 team in the AP Pro32 NFL power rankings. In balloting by 12 media members who regularly cover the NFL, the top three teams in the AP Pro32 were the Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos. The Super Bowl champion Seahawks grabbed 11 first-place votes on Tuesday and had 383 points. “The world champions are still intact and have the ability to repeat, but that’s a long way off,” said Pat Kirwan of SiriusXM NFL Radio/CBSSports.com. Their NFC West rival from the Bay Area earned the other first-place vote and had 360 points. Rick Gosselin of the Dallas Morning News put the 49ers in the top spot. “The 49ers can run the ball and play defense,” Gosselin said. “With Vernon Davis, a healthy Michael Crabtree and the addition of Stevie Johnson, the 49ers should be able to pass it now as well.” The Broncos and New England Patriots, who faced each other in the AFC championship game,

followed at No. 3 and No. 4, respectively. Both AFC powers were active in the offseason trying to get an edge on the other. After getting blown out in the Super Bowl, Denver added wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders to help out Peyton Manning, and DeMarcus Ware, Aqib Talib and T.J. Ward to bolster the defense. “Peyton Manning isn’t going away just yet and the Broncos have enough firepower on offense and some key additions on defense to get back to the big game,” Kirwan said. The Patriots added Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner to help a defense that lost key starters last season to injury. “Tom Brady still is plenty good enough to win a championship,” Newsday’s Bob Glauber said. “Question is whether there’s enough around him to give him a chance.” The Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints were tied for fifth. ESPN’s Herm Edwards thinks the Packers are a strong favorite to repeat as division champions. “A healthy Aaron Rodgers along with the running game of Eddie Lacy and the additions on defense, Julius Peppers and Ha Ha

Clinton-Dix, is not good for the NFC North,” Edwards said. Alex Marvez of Foxsports.com agreed. “This looks like Green Bay’s best roster since their Super Bowl-winning team of 2010,” he said. The Indianapolis Colts, Philadelphia Eagles, Cincinnati Bengals and San Diego Chargers rounded out the top 10. The Bengals have made the playoffs for three consecutive seasons and lost in the first round each time. They haven’t won a playoff game since 1990, which ties for the sixth-longest streak of postseason futility in NFL history. “The time is now for this roster, especially QB Andy Dalton.” ESPN.com’s Jeff Legwold said. Rounding out the bottom of the poll were the Cleveland Browns, Jacksonville Jaguars and, at No. 32, the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders, who added Maurice Jones-Drew, Justin Tuck and LaMarr Woodley in the offseason, finished 4-12 last season. “The Raiders have been through seven head coaches since posting their last winning record in 2002,” noted Ira Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune.

Marshall pleased to be 1 of 5 Sounders in MLS All-Star game By Don Ruiz The News Tribune

TUKWILA — Seattle Sounders central defender Chad Marshall is a Major League Soccer All-Star again after a three-season absence. Marshall doesn’t think he’s playing dramatically better than he did from 2011 to 2013 in Columbus, but instead sees the recognition as one of the perks that comes from playing with the league-leading Sounders. “It’s been a while since I got to play in one,” Marshall said Tuesday after training. “It’s a credit to how we’re doing as a team. When you’re top of the table, you’re going to get guys in the All-Star game. So I feel very privileged and happy to represent the Sounders there.” Seattle’s league-best 12-4-2 record is matched by its club-record and league-high five All-Stars: forward Obafemi Martins, midfielders Clint Dempsey and Osvaldo Alonso, and defenders DeAndre Yedlin and Marshall. “Whenever you achieve team success, individual recognition comes along with it,” Sounders coach Sigi Schmid said. “... I think it’s a reflection of what we’ve done as a team. It’s great for the individuals. I think it’s deserving for all of them.” Marshall played his first 10 professional seasons with the Columbus Crew. He was an All-Star in 2009 and 2010, and in 2008 and 2009 was named to the MLS Best XI and defender of the year. That run of honors accompanied a successful streak by the Crew: MLS Cup and Supporters Shield in 2008 and another Supporters Shield in 2009. But when Columbus’ trophy

collection stopped, so did the honors for Marshall. In December, he was acquired by Seattle for allocation money and a draft pick. “Coming here has revitalized his game to a certain extent,” Schmid said. “But on the other hand, maybe it’s just because Columbus didn’t do as well the last couple of years that people sort of overlooked him a little. And now coming into our team and doing well, people are looking at him a little more and they see what an impact he makes onto the field. But I’ve always believed Chad’s a good player, an All-Star quality player, a player who’s maybe national-team caliber.” Marshall seemed less certain that the move has revitalized his play. But he agrees with the rest of Schmid’s analysis. “I don’t feel like I’m playing much different than I was there,” Marshall said. “But obviously I’m on a great team now. When you get to play with Obafemi Martins and Clint Dempsey and guys like that, you’re

going to be at the top of the table and you’re going to get guys on the All-Star team.” The five Sounders will be part of the MLS All-Star team that plays German power Bayern Munich at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 6 in Portland. Additional spoils of victory were bestowed on U.S. national team players Dempsey and Yedlin, who have been named grand marshals of the Seafair Torchlight Parade, which will begin its march through downtown Seattle at 7:30 p.m. Saturday. Seafair says its parade typically draws more than 150,000 spectators. “I’m excited for that, too,” said Yedlin, a Seattle native. “I’ve been to (the Torchlight Parade), but I’ve never— obviously— been the grand marshal before. I’m excited to see what that experience is like and see all the people out there. … I went a lot when I was young with my grandma, my family. I don’t have too clear a favorite memory of it: just all the people out there, and it’s a cool event.”

WA zip codes turn up free silver coins for residents

Bags loaded with U.S. Gov’t issued coins are up for grabs as thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the money; now any resident of Washington who finds their zip code listed below gets to claim the bags full of money and keep any valuable coins found inside by covering the Vault Bag fee within the next 2 days The phone lines are ringing off the hook. That’s because Vault Bags containing valuable U.S. Gov’t issued coins are actually being handed over to Everett area residents who find their zip code listed in today’s publication. “Now that the bags of money are up for grabs Washington residents are claiming as many as they can get before they’re all gone.

How to claim the bags of U.S. Gov’t issued coins: Read the important information listed below about claiming the Vault Bags. Then call the National Claim Hotline before the 2-day deadline ends at: 1-888-867-3101

How much are the Vault Bags worth: Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but here’s why Washington residents are claiming as many Vault Bags as they can get before they’re all gone. After the Vault Bags were loaded with over 100 U.S. Gov’t issued coins including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and a big scoop of unsearched currently circulating U.S. Gov’t issued coins the bags were sealed for good. But we do know that some of the coins date back to the 1900s. That means there’s no telling what you’ll find until you sort through all the coins. So you better believe at just $ 99 and shipping and handling the Vault Bag fee is a real steal since the free Silver Walking Liberty coin alone could be worth from $15 to $325 in collector value. Why is the Vault Bag fee so low: Because thousands of U.S. residents have missed the deadline to claim the money the World Reserve has re-allocated Vault Bags that will be scheduled to be sent out in the next 2 days. That means the money is up for grabs and now any resident who finds the first two digits of their zip code on the Distribution List below gets to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S. Gov’t issued coins found inside. Each Vault Bag fee is set at $149 for residents who miss the 2-day deadline, but for those who beat the 2-day deadline the Vault Bag fee is just $ 99 as long as they call the National Claim Hotline before the deadline ends at: CALL THIS NUMBER: 1-888-867-3101 USE THIS CLAIM CODE: MSB373 AL 35, 36

Nibali was still descending from the day’s biggest climb, the Porte de Bales, as Rogers crossed and finished 81⁄2 minutes later. But the Italian looks even more likely to win the three-week race on Sunday after keeping pace with possible contenders for the yellow jersey, and gaining time on two others. One of the laggards was Tejay van Garderen. Unable to keep pace on the Port de Bales, the 25-year-old American was more than 31⁄2 minutes after Nibali. Van Garderen only slipped a spot in the standings, to sixth, but the gap to the rider ahead of him grew. The other laggard was France’s Romain Bardet, who finished nearly two minutes back of Nibali.

She was approached in recent months about working with FEED-DS, and was drawn to the organization’s stated goal of helping people. “I definitely feel that the Lord wants me to do something like this,” said Benson, a committed Christian. “And I think He needs me doing something like this.” She will return to Russia later this summer where she will represent FEED-DS and also work as a governess for a family she came to know in the last year. Benson occasionally thinks about basketball, which was once “a big part of my identity.” As a high school senior, she led a powerful

Snohomish team to the state championship game against Garfield. In a thrilling yet ultimately heart-breaking outcome for Snohomish, Garfield ended up with a 63-58 overtime victory, despite 20 points and 14 rebounds from Benson. By then she had accepted a full scholarship to attend Eastern Washington, an NCAA Division I school in Cheney. She played three seasons for the Eagles, but left after her junior year in part because of a painful back injury thought to be a strain. It was later diagnosed as a stress fracture and bulging disk, and Benson ended up sitting out the 2008-09 season. While at SPU in 2009-10, she expected to play with her younger sister Katie, a 2009 Snohomish graduate. Unfortunately, Katie Benson tore her anterior cruciate ligament in the preseason and missed that year. Sydney Benson’s disappointment at not being able to play with her sister was compounded by a similar injury she suffered later in the season. Like sisters who share everything, “we now have matching scars,” Sydney Benson said with a laugh. After finishing her career at SPU, Benson decided she was finished with organized basketball, though she still occasionally plays for fun. “My homesickness for basketball, if you want to call it that, comes and goes occasionally,” she admitted. “The

No. 1 thing I miss is shooting in the morning. In college I always had to find someone who had a key to the gym because I loved shooting in an empty gym with the smell of the wood and the feel of the ball. I miss that a lot.” Otherwise, she is content to go forward with a life that is unfolding in ways she barely could have imagined back in high school. “(Mission work) gives me opportunities to connect with amazing people all over the world,” she said, “and those are experiences I could never have if I just stayed (in the Puget Sound area) or even if I got an office job. I decided over the course of my two years in Russia that I want to use the talents and the passions I have to connect with people. And this gives me an opportunity to do that.” Though she still considers herself “a Snohomish girl, a small-town girl,” Benson has plans to visit Finland, Togo and perhaps Ghana in the coming year, all for her work with FEED-DS. “I have a passion for languages, I love to travel and go to obscure places, and I think God can use my craziness (in the mission field),” she said, laughing again. Recalling a conversation with her father, who asked a few years ago what she wanted out of life, “I told him, ‘I want an adventure.’ And it’s been that,” Benson said. “It’s been quite an adventure.”

CHRIS LEE / ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH

Cantaloupe panna cotta with mixed berries is a refreshingly cool dessert.

Summer on a plate So many ways to enjoy a melon — the season’s happiest fruit

By Daniel Neman St. Louis Post-Dispatch

You know you’re in the heart of the summer when the melons come out to play. Watermelons, with their bright red smiles, a drop of juice glistening on each slice. Honeydews, green and festive, temptingly arrayed on a plate. Merry, golden cantaloupes, sweet and softly yielding. Melons are summertime’s gift to us, an apology for the heat and humidity, an effort to make things right. And they are so cool and refreshing, they do actually improve your life. When you’re eating a melon, it’s hard to feel anything but happy. Watermelons belong in a cooler on a bed of ice, ready to be eaten at a picnic. Cantaloupe

and honeydew turn breakfast into something special. All they require is a wedge of lemon or lime. You already know about cantaloupe wrapped with prosciutto (if you don’t, take a chunk of cantaloupe, wrap it in a thin slice of prosciutto and eat. Repeat until blissful). Perhaps you’ve had a honeydew smoothie (blend honeydew melon with crushed ice and milk. It’s a remarkably refreshing treat). And if you haven’t had chicken or tuna salad mounded in half of a small cantaloupe, now is the time to start. To celebrate the joy of all things melon, I went a slightly different route. I stuck close to the light-and-healthy basics, with melon-rich salads and a silken panna cotta for dessert. To begin with, I chose a salad

that is almost as popular as cantaloupe wrapped with prosciutto. It is a terrific example of a simple dish packing a huge dividend of flavor; it has a high taste-to-effort ratio. The dish is a Watermelon, Feta and Basil salad, and it is nothing more than watermelon, feta cheese, basil, a bit of red onion and a simple vinaigrette. What makes it so extraordinary is the way the flavors play off one another. The cheese, with its salty tang, adds a richness that is balanced by the edge of the vinaigrette and onion, all of which plays under the smooth, cool blend of basil and watermelon. It is one of those dishes that achieves culinary perfection. If you’re at my house in the summer, you’re as likely as not to be served it.

Throw a ‘pink party lunch’ for your finicky princess

By Quinn Western The Sacramento Bee

He was a soldier, a boxer, a hunter, a fisherman, a drinker, a father and the writer of words and stories that aimed to be, above all else, true and honest and pure. He also knew how to make one hell of a hamburger. Ernest Hemingway would have turned 115 this July, and the man behind acclaimed novels such as “The Sun Also Rises,” “A Farewell to Arms” and “The Old Man and the Sea” continues to generate reader interest — and not just in literary circles. The culinary world buzzed about his work earlier this year when the recipe for “Papa’s Favorite Wild West Hamburger” — typed but with hand-written annotations — was released by John F. Kennedy Memorial Library and Museum in Boston. The baroque burger, featuring more than a dozen ingredients including India relish, mei yen powder, carrots, ham, apples, eggs, cheese and wine, stands in stark contrast to the author’s famously economical prose. But make no mistake: This burger is pure Hemingway, larger

A more ambitious and complicated use of melons is a Picante Three-Melon Salad. Wonderfully low in calories (don’t tell anyone; they don’t have to know), this salad hits the taste superfecta: it is sweet, sour, salty and spicy. It is also gorgeous. Bite-sized cubes of red watermelon, yellow watermelon (or cantaloupe, if you can’t find it) and honeydew bring vibrancy to the plate, while the flavor is enhanced with lime juice and rind, salt, chili powder and just a small amount of minced chipotle chiles. Spicy heat is mostly provided by a minced serrano chile (a jalapeno will make it less hot), with additional flavor coming from onions and cilantro. The clever folks at Food

By Casey Seidenberg Special To The Washington Post

Three years ago I had a daughter after almost a decade of all boys in the house. At first, raising a girl wasn’t so different from raising boys; she didn’t have long hair in which to don bows, she wore her brothers’ handme-down blue onesies and she was dragged to hours of sporting events where she happily played in the dirt. But recently something shifted. At the age of 3, she has decided that she is officially a girl — a dress-wearing, doll-toting, teaparty-hosting girl. Although we didn’t push any of the stereotypical girl gear on her — she has spent the past few years playing with trucks and trains as happily as with dolls — it is official: Her favorite activity is to dress up and play princess. And if you ask her (or often even if you don’t), she will tell you her favorite colors are pink and purple. Coinciding with this shift, she has begun to assert herself at the table. She is becoming a pickier eater. The clams she once loved sit on her plate untouched, she

Esquire magazine deemed it the manliest of quarter pounders, and The Times-Picayune called it “beautiful yet refined.” If you’re thinking about making “Papa’s Favorite Wild West Hamburger,” gathering the variety of ingredients is the first challenge. Here’s a shortcut: n Spice Islands mei yen powder (discontinued years ago) can be homemade with nine parts salt, nine parts sugar and two

parts MSG, according to an adaptation by The Paris Review. Then mix ⅔ teaspoon of the dry recipe with ⅛ teaspoon of soy sauce. n Add the rest of the ingredients, including dousing the meat in ⅓ cup of wine. Then “let the meat sit, quietly marinating, for another 10 minutes, if possible.” n Heat the oil and place four thick patties in the frying pan. The recipe’s cook time is spot on

In an effort to meet her in the middle, I made a delicious dip for a recent weekend lunch and served it on china with cups of tea. The dip was pink, of course, yet also free of artificial food dyes.

Anything goes with this summer go-to salad Greek Pasta Salad

An outdoor cookout or potluck is not complete without some sort of a pasta salad. It’s the go-to salad that goes a long way. And it’s the type of salad where just about anything goes. Use leftover chopped vegetables, lean cooked and cubed meats and combine with a creamy dressing or vinaigrette. When you make a pasta salad to be served cold, it’s best to cook the pasta al dente, rinse and drain it. Spread the cooked pasta on a jelly-roll pan to cool completely to room temperature and dry. This helps the pasta retain some of the starchiness so the vinaigrette will coat the pasta, but not completely soak in. This Greek Pasta Salad uses cavatappi pasta. It’s a short S-shaped pasta tube that resembles a corkscrew. Most all of the timing in this recipe is in prepping the vegetables. And the dressing benefits from some feta cheese whipped in. You can use the dressing on a mixed greens salad, too.

Melons From Page D1

Network magazine came up with a wonderful foil for melon — arugula. Their concoction, Honeydew and Arugula Salad, is one of those cases of opposites that play very well together. The primary feature of arugula is that it is peppery. The primary feature of melon is that it is sweet. Put the two together and you have an irresistible combination, especially when topped with a cool dressing made from pureed honeydew, mayonnaise, lime juice and plenty of fresh herbs.

2 packages (16 ounces each) cavatappi pasta or elbow macaroni 2 pints grape tomatoes, washed, halved 1 jar (7 ounces) kalamata olive pieces in brine, drained 10 ounces feta cheese (use half regular and half reduced-fat or fat-free), crumbled 1 large red onion, peeled, diced 1 hot house cucumber, seeded, diced 1 large bunch radishes, washed, ends removed, thinly sliced 1 cup chopped flat leaf parsley ¼ cup red wine vinegar 2 cloves garlic, peeled 4 ounces fat-free, reduced fat or regular feta cheese, crumbled 1 tablespoon dried oregano 1 tablespoon sugar ¼ teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper 1 teaspoon all-purpose seasoning 1¼ cup olive oil Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Spread the pasta out on a baking sheet to dry for 30 to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare all the remaining salad ingredients and place them in a large serving bowl. Add the pasta and toss together. In a blender or food processor place

Changing the mixture of herbs will give you a different dressing every time. For dessert it is more melon, of course, a cantaloupe panna cotta. A popular dessert in Italy, panna cotta combines the best aspects of ice cream and Jell-O, but it tastes much better than that sounds. It is a semi-solid but somewhat quivering chilled dessert made with cream — or milk, if you must, and in this case some Greek yogurt is added to make it a bit tangy. If you don’t like it tangy, stick with the cream. Most of the flavor, in this case, comes from pureed cantaloupe (or other melon), sweetened with honey. Powdered

Recipe from Food Network Magazine

Note: If you want it sweeter, use ½ cup heavy cream, half-andhalf or whole milk instead of the yogurt. Use the ripest berries you can find; raspberries or strawberries would also work. In a blender, puree cantaloupe until smooth. Pour through a finemesh sieve into a bowl, pressing lightly on solids (you should have about 2 cups of puree); discard solids. Pour 1/3 cup juice into a small bowl and sprinkle gelatin over the top; let sit 5 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk yogurt into remaining juice. In a small saucepan, bring cream, 2 tablespoons of the honey, and a pinch of salt to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in gelatin mixture and cook until gelatin dissolves, about 1 minute. Whisk cream mixture into yogurt mixture and divide among 6 (6-ounce) bowls or ramekins. Refrigerate until set, 2½ hours or overnight. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine remaining 1 tablespoon honey, blackberries, blueberries and orange juice. With the back of a fork, lightly mash berries to release their juices. Cover and refrigerate until needed. To unmold panna cottas, run a small knife around the outside edge of each bowl and invert onto a serving plate, gently shaking from side to side to release. Serve with berries and juices.

words such as “unoaked” or “naked” on the label. Want something that is that bigger style? Look for “sur lie aged” or “barrel fermented.” If none of those words is on the label, see if the back label will give you a clue by looking for words such as “crisp” or “buttery.” Here are a few Washington Chardonnays we’ve tasted in recent weeks that should provide delicious contrasts in style.

(Eds. note: Taken verbatim from Hemingway’s original recipe) “Break up the meat with a fork and scatter the garlic, onion and dry seasonings over it, then mix them into the meat with a fork or your fingers. Let the bowl of meat sit out of the icebox for ten or fifteen minutes while you set the table and make the salad. Add the relish, capers, everything else including wine and let the meat sit, quietly marinating, for another ten minutes if possible. Now make your fat, juicy patties with your hands. The patties should be an inch thick, and soft in texture but not runny. Have the oil in your frying pan hot but not smoking when you drop in the patties and then turn the heat down and fry the burgers about four minutes. Take the pan off the burner and turn the heat high again. Flip the burgers over, put the pan back on the hot fire, then after one minute, turn the heat down again and cook another three minutes. Both sides of the burgers should be crispy brown and the middle pink and juicy.”

Beer of the Month: Uinta Baba Black Lager By Josh Noel Chicago Tribune

What it is: A black lager from Salt Lake City’s Uinta Brewing. The black lager enjoys a deep beer history — in Germany it’s called Schwarzbier — that amounts to the light body and easy drinkability of a lager (most of the nation’s major beers are lagers) but with the pleasant curveball of dark, roasted character. However, black lagers are relatively rare in American craft brewing. That’s

too bad, because they’re perfect summer beers for someone who wants to drink lighter, lower-alcohol brews without sacrificing flavor (and who isn’t in the mood for a hop-forward beer). Bonus points for being certified organic. Alcohol (by volume): 4 percent In the can: The deep black color — and robust

roasty nose — would probably put many people off of this as a summer beer, but as soon as it hits the taste buds that’s exactly what it is: bright, smooth and refreshing. Then comes the complexity from the roasted malt, with a minor creaminess that ups the body from a lighter lager, along with elements of light char and

ost of the time, it seems every grape variety except Chardonnay gets headlines — even though it remains America’s favorite wine. In Washington, Chardonnay was surpassed last fall by Cabernet Sauvignon as the top grape in the state, though not by much. In fact, at 40,200 tons harvested, that’s enough for 2.5 million cases of Chardonnay just in Washington. This year marks the 50th anniversary of Chardonnay being planted in Washington, with some of the earliest grapes going into the ground on Snipes Mountain near the Yakima Valley town of Sunnyside. While those vines are no longer around, interest in Chardonnay spurred large plantings in the 1980s, and since 1993, Chardonnay has been Washington’s No. 1 or No. 2 wine grape. As recently as a decade ago, most Chardonnays were oaky, buttery wines, made in the “California style.” But today, Chardonnay is made in a multitude of styles.

GRANDPARENTING

DAILY CROSSWORD

Lay down ‘your’ rules to daughter-in-law By Tom and Dee Hardie and Key Kidder Dear Grandparenting: Help me to figure out how to deal with my bossy daughter-in-law and all her rules for when I have the grandkids. They are six and nine years old. She dumps the grandkids on me at the last minute when her plans fall through. She says you want to see the grandkids, right? Well here they are. She dumps her instructions on me. She wants everything done her way, like I know nothing. The kids cannot do this and must do that. OK, I get it. She’s the boss. If I have an idea, she says we’ll talk about it later except later never comes. She second-guesses me on things. When I have had enough of their arguing I send the grandkids to separate rooms while I cool down. She says they’re just bored! Give them something else to do! Like what? Who said being a grandparent is a great job? — Patsy Moore, Reading, PA Dear Patsy: Why not come right out and say it? You are steamed,

and rightfully so. Grandparenting has morphed from a joy into a “job” because your daughterin-law runs roughshod darn near every aspect of the acknowledged parent-grandparent contract regarding the care and feeding of grandchildren. In our experience, successful parent-grandparent babysitting arrangements have several things in common. For starters, never assume that grandparents can babysit. To do otherwise invites resentments. Secondly, each generation reserves the right to make the rules in their own residence — the home-field advantage, if you will. Thirdly, ignore the small stuff. Parents and grandparents should sit down and hammer out the basics and agree not to disagree about petty issues that inevitably arise. Babysitting is an inherently imperfect process. Disciplining the little ones is frequently a flash point between parents and grandparents. When grandchildren misbehave, grandparents must have authority to punish, lest grandchildren think

there are no rules in grandma’s place. By the same token, grandparents who respect and honor parental authority are given more latitude. It’s our guess that your relationship with your daughter-in-law is headed for the rocks unless you clear the air about who’s in charge. Without assigning blame, tell her what bothers you. If you don’t get some relief, the tension will continue to build. Grandchildren are quick to pick up on family friction. The very last thing anyone needs is for them to start playing you off against their mother. ** ** ** GRAND REMARK OF THE WEEK “When grandparents enter the door, discipline files out the window” Ogden Nash, late American poet Dee and Tom, married more than 50 years, have eight grandchildren.

Counseling is called for after assault Dear Abby: My granddaughter “Cindy,” age 2, was being watched by her mommy’s ex-sister-in-law and her sons. Cindy went to her mommy and said, “Bubby hurt me.” Bubby is what she calls her 10-yearold cousin. Her mother called the police. A policeman spoke to her and said there wasn’t enough evidence. Now my granddaughter is scared of men. The police went and talked to the cousin who said he “accidentally touched her down there with her pull-up on.” DCFS was called in, and again it was a man. We took Cindy to a female doctor and Cindy told the doctor everything that happened to her. Now she wakes up having nightmares and yells, “No, Bubby. Stop!” What’s a grandmother to do to help her? We need justice for Cindy. — Distraught Grandmother Dear Distraught: You may need justice for Cindy, but what Cindy needs right now is professional help to get past the trauma of what was done to her. Contact the nearest rape treatment center, tell them everything you have told me and ask for their assistance in finding therapy for your grandchild. They hear stories like this all too often. The boy who assaulted Cindy also needs counseling so that he won’t/can’t repeat what he did to her with another little girl. From my perspective, both of these children need professional help. Dear Abby: For years I dated guys who I knew wanted a committed relationship, while I just wanted to have fun. I enjoyed being single and never saw myself getting married. My mom was RIP HAYWIRE

married three times to men who abused her. It made the idea of marriage terrifying to me. Through counseling, I have found healing from my past. I regret the damage I caused by leading guys on. Now that I want to be married, my life feels empty. While I used to enjoy my independence, I now want to share my experiences with someone. Because of the counseling I have had, I know what I shouldn’t settle for, but the only guys asking me out are sleazy. I feel like in some ways life was easier when I wanted to stay single. How do I find a healthy balance so I won’t go back to my old ways or end up settling out of desperation? — Healed But Confused Dear Healed But Confused: One way would be to continue the counseling. While you may want to be married now, desperation and neediness are not traits that attract worthwhile men. You need to be prepared to take some time and find a balance in your life while you’re looking for Mr. Right. Explore your own interests, make friends with members of both sexes, do some volunteering if you have the time. If you do, the chances of your meeting the right kind of man will improve because you will have more to offer. Universal Uclick

BRIDGE Cy the Cynic says that if you help a man in trouble, he will surely remember you ... the next time he’s in trouble. That may explain why Cy is reluctant to help his partners with careful signaling on defense. When I watched today’s deal in a penny game, Cy was West and led a diamond against 3NT. South won with the jack, let the jack of hearts ride to East’s queen, and won the diamond return with the ace, as Cy played the deuce. South next led a club to his

ace and led the nine of hearts, losing another finesse to East. But then East led a third diamond, and South produced the king and made an overtrick instead of going down: He took four clubs, three hearts and three diamonds. I couldn’t blame East for the result: South could have held A 10 3, J 9 7, Q J 6, A Q 8 4. To help his partner, and make him eternally grateful, Cy should follow with the queen on the second diamond, denying possession of the king. When East takes the king of hearts, he will know what to do.

TODAY IN HISTORY Today’s highlight: On July 23, 1914, Austria-Hungary presented a list of demands to Serbia following the killing of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serb assassin; Serbia’s refusal to agree to the entire ultimatum led to World War I. On this date: In 1886, a legend was born as Steve Brodie claimed to have made a daredevil plunge from the Brooklyn Bridge into New York’s East River. (However, there are doubts about whether the dive actually took place.) In 1945, French Marshal Henri Petain, who had headed the Vichy government during World War II, went on trial, charged with treason. (He was convicted and condemned to death, but the sentence was commuted.) In 1967, a week of deadly racerelated rioting that claimed 43 lives erupted in Detroit. In 1977, a jury in Washington, D.C., convicted 12 Hanafi Muslims of charges stemming from the hostage siege at three buildings the previous March. Associated Press

ABC focusing on diversity this fall By Meg James Los Angeles Times

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — ABC is taking a bold step this fall to diversify prime-time television by prominently showcasing African-Americans, Latinos and other minorities on a scale never before seen on a major American network. The broadcast networks have traditionally cast white actors in lead roles, calculating that they would help boost a show’s chances of success in the ratings and international sales. Not only that, but the creative team behind the camera has also been typically white as well. But those traditional biases are fading, Paul Lee, ABC’s entertainment president, said Tuesday during ABC’s presentation at the Television Critics Association summer press tour in Beverly Hills. “America doesn’t look like that anymore,” said Lee, a native of Britain. “When I came here, I wanted to find shows that reflected America. That’s our job.” Shows with all-white casts “feel dated,” added Lee. It was the blockbuster success of writer-producer Shonda

Rhimes’ hit, “Scandal,” starring Kerry Washington, that paved the way for this season’s changes. The drama, which launched in midseason two years ago with seemingly low expectations, demonstrated that America would embrace a show starring an African-American woman. Add to that ABC’s hit comedy “Modern Family,” which features a gay couple who just got married and the marriage of a crusty white guy and his much-younger Latina wife. The

popular sitcom soared in the ratings, proving that TV viewers would find humor in subject matter that was usually off-limits on mainstream TV. The Walt Disney Co.-owned network’s big bet for this fall is another drama executive-produced by Rhimes called “How to Get Away With Murder.” Critically acclaimed film star Viola Davis headlines the drama as a tough and morally complex university law professor teaching students how to defend

criminals. “How to Get Away With Murder” is scheduled to run on Thursday nights, paired with Rhimes’ other two hits, “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Scandal.” Lee, for his part, said many factors contributed to ABC’s more diverse prime-time lineup. Key among them has been ABC’s decision to welcome a more diverse group of writers and producers, telling them to bring their passion projects. “You need storytellers and you need executives ... who truly reflect America as it is and we have a very diverse group of people,” Lee said. ABC also is launching “Fresh Off the Boat,” a story of a young Asian-American boy who moves with his immigrant family from Chinatown in Washington, D.C., to Orlando. The network has high hopes for “Black-ish,” a family sitcom created by Anthony Anderson and also starring Laurence Fishburne. “Cristela” is about a highachiever law school student from a large Mexican American family. “Specificity is so key to great television, and you can smell it if it is not authentic,” Lee said. “These are American stories, all of them.”

SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY 50 years ago (1964) David Bomar, son of Mr. and Mrs. T.W. Bomar, 2510 Lombard Ave., was awarded a bachelor of arts degree with a major in English from Northwest Nazarene College, Nampa, Idaho. He was student center director, sophomore class chaplain and a member of the dormitory council and Circle K. Three young men in the area

had joined the U.S. Navy. They were Steven D. Hendrix, a June graduate of Marysville High School; Claude T. Townsend, also of Marysville; and Gary J. Griffin of Everett, who was a graduate of Snohomish High School. 25 years ago (1989) Everett had taken to the streets. Kelly Kempma of

Marysville won the Hula-Hoop contest on Colby Avenue, part of Everett’s Salty Sea Days celebration. Leonard Opperud of Everett winced as he got the brush off from barber Paul Chachulski during the weekend sidewalk sale along north Broadway. The Darrington Bluegrass Festival was attracting record crowds. Bill Monroe, considered

the father of bluegrass music, was the headliner who helped pull in the fans. Wayne Hay of Fall City and his group Crabgrass were among the other performers. The festival concluded today. By Jack O’Donnell from Herald archives at the Everett Public Library
