their grief. Walker, 28, is charged with first-degree murder in Molly’s death along with multiple counts of assault and drive-by shooting for a spree of gunfire into area homes in the hours
EDMONDS — The city and the Port of Edmonds are poised to spend $125,000 to show state lawmakers the importance of a request for money for a major transportation plan. Earlier this year, the city asked the Legislature for $1.25 million to study how to reduce traffic jams caused by frequent trains on the city’s waterfront. The city set aside $100,000 from the general fund, and the Port of Edmonds approved $25,000 for the project. “There are a lot of projects and issues around the state. They all warrant money and attention,” said Patrick Doherty, who oversees the city’s Economic Development and Community Services programs. “The more you can portray your issue as being well grounded in your own community, the better you will be received.” The money from the city and the port is intended to underscore the seriousness of the traffic problem, and to demonstrate the city and port working together on a cost-effective solution, said Bob McChesney, the port’s executive director. The state has a stake in the

A crowded courtroom reacts Monday as prosecutors play 911 tapes from the night Molly Conley was killed, June 1, 2013, during the first day of Erick Walker’s trial in Everett.
By Scott North Herald Writer
Erick Walker stands in Snohomish County Superior Court after opening statements in his trial.
EVERETT — A Snohomish County courtroom was filled with the sound of anguished screaming Monday as the trial began for the man accused of randomly gunning down a 15-year-old girl as she walked with friends along a darkened Lake Stevens road in 2013. Tape recordings of the 911 calls Molly Conley’s friends made the night she was fatally shot were played by prosecutors as they began trying to prove that Erick Walker, of Marysville, is the person responsible.
Molly and five other teenage girls were walking along South Lake Stevens Road on June 1, 2013 when a shot rang out. Two of the girls immediately called 911, seeking help. Like Molly, most were visiting from Seattle and had difficulty describing where they were. “Our friend just got shot! Our friend just got shot!” one of the girls yelled, pleading with the emergency dispatcher to send help. The 911 recordings captured the teens’ screams, sobs and wailing as the girls tried to answer a dispatcher’s questions, tried to flag down passersby and

after her killing. He’s denied any involvement. In opening statements, longtime defense attorney Mark Mestel told jurors that his client is an innocent man who became a convenient suspect for police who were under pressure to solve a highprofile murder. Walker had no idea what police wanted when he started driving to work one morning in late June 2013, was suddenly rammed by a police patrol car, and then handcuffed by a SWAT team. His client thought the trouble may have had something to do with his being black, Mestel said. Despite concern that he was being profiled, Walker tried to cooperate with detectives and answer questions truthfully. Listen carefully to the evidence prosecutors say connects him to the gunfire, Mestel urged jurors. The prosecution’s timeline of where Walker was doesn’t hold up, he said, adding there also is a lack of scientifically reliable evidence to link Walker to the violence. Deputy prosecutor Ed Stemler said that after hearing the evidence, jurors will be convinced Walker was “a force of destruction” that swept through Lake Stevens and Marysville in early June 2013. The bullet that took Molly’s life was never found, Stemler acknowledged. Likewise, the girls who were with her when she was shot didn’t get a good look at her assailant

Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Ed Stemler (right) talks with Molly Conley’s father, grandparents and family members Monday during a recess in Snohomish County Superior Court in Everett. Erick Walker is charged with a series of drive-by shootings June 1 and 2, 2013, including a shot that killed 15-year-old Molly Conley.
or the passing car that was the apparent source of the gunfire. Instead, the case was built by police as they investigated shots fired at five houses in Lake Stevens and Marysville during the hours immediately after Molly’s death, he said. In each case, the shooter used .30-caliber ammunition designed for the M1 Carbine and used in some handguns. Walker’s name came up on a list of people who had recently purchased firearms using that ammunition. At the shooting in Marysville, the gunman sideswiped a car as he sped away, busting a headlight and leaving behind black paint chips. Detectives arrested
Walker not long after they checked his car. The dark-colored Pontiac G6 appeared to have a new headlight and damage consistent with the hitand-run at the Marysville drive-by, jurors were told. When questioned by detectives, Walker admitted to driving around Lake Stevens during the time Molly was killed. Walker’s firearms were seized for testing. State forensic scientists matched bullets recovered in the Lake Stevens and Marysville shootings to two .30-caliber Ruger Blackhawk handguns seized from Walker’s home, jurors were told. Detectives also recovered the broken headlight from Walker’s car. He’d

asked his father to help him replace it, and when police came calling it was still neatly packed away in a box, awaiting disposal. Jurors will be able to see for themselves how well the pieces of broken headlight recovered at the Marysville shooting match the one detectives tied to Walker, Stemler said. Walker faces decades in prison if convicted as charged. His trial is expected to last up to three weeks. While much of the testimony is expected to focus on forensics, jurors on Monday learned some details about the girl who was killed. One friend, 17, was walking along the road a bit behind Molly when
the shot rang out. She described Molly as athletic, well liked and funny. She initially thought the gunshot was a firecracker going off. Another girl in the group began making a commotion about how the noise had hurt her ears. When she saw Molly fall to her knees she first thought it was from laughing at their friend, she testified. Then she saw the blood on Molly’s face and chest. She began frantically flagging down motorists. It was hours before she knew for sure her friend was dead. Molly’s mother, Susan Arksey, spoke about how excited her daughter had been that week. Molly turned 15 the day before her trip to Lake Stevens. The freshman at Seattle’s Bishop Blanchet High School played soccer and lacrosse, was in the drama club and had dreams of one day attending the University of Washington to study medicine. “She was delightful and funny, so sweet and loving, kind,” Arksey said. “Super hard worker. Such a hard worker.” She last saw Molly as the teen was getting ready to leave for the sleepover with her friends in Lake Stevens. Mother and daughter exchanged hugs. A few hours later, Arksey sent her a text message: “Love you, 15.” Molly replied with a smiley face. Later came the call from police, urging Arksey to head to Lake Stevens. Molly had been shot.

Everett mill site no longer hazardous By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer
EVERETT — It’s taken 20 years, but the state says a former Weyerhaeuser mill site on Everett’s north side is clean. Contaminated soil at the site has either been trucked away or covered up and doesn’t pose a health threat, according to the state Department of Ecology. From 1914 to 1992, Weyerhaeuser operated several mills at the 35-acre site along the Snohomish River, turning out pulp, boards and other wood products. The site is at 101 E. Marine View
Drive, just west of the Highway 529 bridge. The Department of Ecology will accept public comment until April 6 on the proposal to scratch the property from the state’s list of cleanup sites. Ecology will then review comments, and if no significant changes are deemed necessary, the land will be taken off the state’s hazardous sites list. Even if it is taken off the list, the Ecology Department “will continue to review it every five years to make sure containment is working,” said David South, the agency’s site manager. While heavily polluted soil was

But they
do not pose any health threat. Weyerhaeuser started cleaning the site up in 1995, with Ecology approving plans and reviewing results. For several years, the Department of Ecology has been monitoring arsenic levels in groundwater. The levels are at a safe level, South said. “It’s not unusual for things to take this long,” he said. Over the years, mill work also produced polychlorinated biphenyls, chromium, mercury, ethylbenzene, xylenes, petroleum and water with arsenic. While the land is cleaned up, it

should only be used for industrial purposes, South said. Weyerhaeuser sold the land, most of which is split between three parcels. Two of the properties, about 22.7 acres in all, are owned by Shadow Development, a company registered in Seattle. The other 7.7-acre parcel is held by Blunt Family LLC, a Everett holding company for the estate of Kim and Sharon Bargreen Blunt. The local business executives and civic boosters died in 2010 and 2008, respectively. Dan Catchpole: 425-339-3454; dcatchpole@heraldnet.com.

Cultural Manager and Stillaguamish tribe member Tara Boser walks in front of the entrance to the new Stillaguamish Community Center on Wednesday in Arlington. “We’re happy to have a place to call home again,” Boser said of the the 26,000-square-foot center that will serve as a cultural hub for the tribe of nearly 300 members.
Stillaguamish Tribe’s new community center connects youth and elders By Kari Bray Herald Writer
ARLINGTON — The sprawling brown-and-red building off 55th Avenue NE is a nod to the Stillaguamish Tribe’s heritage and part of tribal leaders’ plans for the future. It’s also the latest of four newly built or planned buildings for the 300-person tribe. Leaders are working to update department work spaces. They
also aim to set up administration and services closer to the 64-acre Stillaguamish Reservation, which was federally designated in 2014. The new community center — a 26,000-square-foot, $5.5 million project — was completed and dedicated last month. Four departments are relocating there. They were previously crammed with the rest of the tribe’s administration in a smaller building in Smokey Point. See TRIBE, Page A4

CLINTON — An ongoing landslide at Brighton Beach destroyed another Whidbey Island shoreline cabin late Friday, and officials are warning
people to stay away from the area. The slide zone, below a 200-foot bluff, is extremely dangerous and should be avoided, said Jon Beck, deputy chief of the South Whidbey fire district. In December and last month, other buildings were seriously damaged by sliding mud and debris. The latest event took place at about 10 p.m. Friday. The building was not occupied and no one was hurt. “This whole area is subject to

It’s all mapped as geohazard.” The county has red-tagged damaged buildings, meaning they are too dangerous to enter. The cabin hit Friday had a yellow tag, meaning residents were allowed to remove belongings. Mud took out the first floor, and a large tree is now poking through the roof.

MARYSVILLE — He hadn’t been in town long. Long enough, it turned out, to blow his $8,000 life savings gambling at the Tulalip Casino and then allegedly rob a bank. Now, a Texas man is sitting in the Snohomish County Jail under investigation of holding up a Marysville HomeStreet Bank on Friday afternoon. He’s being held on $500,000 bail and is accused of robbery, assault, theft and being a fugitive from another state. A police dog named Nuke tracked down the suspect in some bushes about 200 feet from the bank. He’d earlier made off with about $7,000 after pulling out a handgun and threatening to shoot anyone who hit a bank panic button or reached for a cellphone, according to court papers. As it turned out, a teller already had called 911. The bandit, 22, ran from the bank with the cash. He later told police that he knew what he was doing. He explained that it was “just the mentality of ‘Dude, you just lost everything.’ ” He also told police that he didn’t want to spend another night freezing and hungry and his main reason was he had no cash in his wallet. The Houston man told Marysville police that he also had committed a bank robbery in Humble, Texas, near the end of January, according to court records. The suspect said that he flew from Texas to Seattle last week because he heard the area had good casinos. He said he lost all of his money playing poker and then slept on a park bench. The suspect told police: “I saw my life wasn’t going anywhere and I thought I would take a shot.” He said that he brought two guns with him in checked baggage in the plane from Texas. He insisted there was no ammunition in the gun he used during the robbery because he didn’t want to shoot anyone.

The center provides childcare, tutoring, meals and a space for gathering during classes, ceremonies or celebrations. Design work started more than two years ago, and crews broke ground on the building last spring. It opened four months after the tribe celebrated the completion of a new Natural Resources Building on Sixth Avenue and two months after the grand opening of a five-story hotel attached to the Angel of the Winds Casino at 3438 Stoluckquamish Lane. A new administration building, about twice the size of the community center, is under construction near the casino, at
the corner of 236th NE Street and 35th Avenue NE. That project should be completed in early 2016, facilities director Jeremy Smith said. Eventually, leaders plan to build tribal housing on acreage near the community center. The water tower and utilities that serve the center are designed to handle more development, although there’s no firm timeline for the housing, Smith said. The community center was a priority because it creates a place for the tribe to congregate, cultural director Tara Boser said. “During the summer, it will be used all the time, with summer camps and tribal functions,” she said. “Really, the hub of it all is gathering together.” A replica of a traditional Stillaguamish canoe is perched on artificial rocks
over a floor swirled with shades of blue to resemble a river. Past the canoe, a towering entryway, crafted to look like the aged boards of a longhouse, leads to a full-sized basketball court and stage for presentations and performances. Offices for the tribe’s elders and the education and cultural departments are being furnished and supplied. A day care and play area already is busy with children. “The day care was the biggest driver for the building,” Smith said. “We basically had a concrete playground at the administration building. We wanted the kids to get back out on the grass and in the woods.” The day care is licensed for up to 12 kids at a time, ages one month to 12 years, director Stacy White said. Special programs like
summer camps can have larger groups. “All the kids in the tribe come to the day care,” she said. “They can come whenever, as long as we have room.” The playground includes a mud pit, a slide built into a grassy hill, an outdoor music station, a paved track winding through the yard and a centerpiece with three fake evergreen trees, their concrete trunks carefully carved to look like bark.

Seattle: Will review Shell drilling fleet City officials said Monday they want to review whether current permits allow Royal Dutch Shell PLC to lease port property along the Seattle waterfront for its Arctic oil drilling fleet. Mayor Ed Murray and the City Council directed planners to investigate whether Shell’s activities would be allowed under a shoreline development permit that the city granted to the Port of Seattle in 1995. “Any project of this apparent significance to our industrial lands must go through the appropriate review,” Murray said.

playground, Smith said. “Literally, it was a parking lot with rubber mats on it” topped by a swingset and jungle gym, he said. It didn’t let the children experience grass, dirt and nature, something the tribe wants for the next generation. Another goal is to teach children about their heritage, Boser said. The tribe elders’ offices are just down the hall from the day care. “The reason behind that was to tie the youth and the elders together,” she said. A community center is something the tribe has needed for a long time, Boser said. “We haven’t had a place where we can all gather,” she said “We’re happy to have someplace to call home again.” Kari Bray: 425-339-3439; kbray@heraldnet.com.

OBITUARIES AND MEMORIALS
Jerr y D. Ellis, from Lake
Roesiger, passed away on March 5, 2015 after a courageous but tough battle with cancer. He was born to Donald and Annette Ellis on April 7, 1935 in Seattle. Jerry is survived by his loving wife of 58 years, Irene (Olseene) Ellis; and five children, Donald Ellis and wife Cathy of Bothell, Michael Ellis and wife Rhonda of East Wenatchee, Colleen Towns and husband Joe of Snoh o m i s h , Ro b e r t E l l i s a n d wife Roberta of Snohomish, and David Ellis and wife Michelle of Everett. His five children blessed them with thirteen grandchildren: Jeffrey, Jamie, Danae, Amanda, Jennifer, Michael, Christine, Brandon, Katie, Brianna, Bailey, Ashley and Kayla. The grandchildren have blessed them with six great-grandchildren and two more on the way. Jerry had one brother, Richard Ellis, husband of Carol, deceased, of Mountlake Terrace and one sister-in-law, M a r g a r et L i n d e l l , w i fe o f Gary, deceased, of Woodinville, and dear mother-in-law Agnes Olseene, wife of John, deceased, of Mill Creek. In addition are many more extended family members and countless dear friends. Jerr y grew up in Seattle and graduated from Lincoln High School in 1953. One of his passions during his high school years was automobiles, and af ter school he could often be found at the racetrack or garage. Shortly after graduating, he married his high school sweetheart, Irene, and started raising the family. He followed his passion of coaching his children’s CYO sports teams at St. Luke’s School in Shoreline, where Jerry and Irene educated all five children. When school was out for the summer, RV camping took over, and the family explored most of the western U n i te d S t a te s b y t r a i l e r, creating many precious experiences that will exist forever in the family’s memories. This passion continued until the end of his life, and the truck and trailer were on the road many weeks every year, with the last twenty years being filled with countless enjoyable trips with the Lake Roesiger Trailer Club. Jerry and Irene also greatly enjoyed their winter Yuma, Ariz. home for many years. True to the strong work ethic he followed his whole l i fe , J e r r y wo r ke d a t t h e Seattle Times for over forty years. Many life-long friendships were created there that Jerry valued so much. In his rare free time, Jerry could be found pursuing another passion, the game of golf. In addition to an intense focus on family, Jerry firmly believed in giving back to the communities in which he lived. At Lake Roesiger, that meant the volunteer fire depar tment. He ser ved as a volunteer for countless years, and was one of the three elected fire commiss i o n e r s fo r t h a t d i s t r i c t , where he served selflessly for eighteen years right to the end of his life. When the 911 call went out for response to any emergency, Jerry could always be counted on to get the necessary aid units to the scene as fast as possible, no matter w h a t t i m e o f t h e d ay o r night. Never a complainer, Jerry would endure personal pain and hardship with his endless smile and concern for another’s well-being, even at the expense of his own. During his battle with cancer the last two months, his genuine concern of others, including the hospital staff, took precedence over his own needs. Jerry will always be remembered for the man of princip l e a n d i n te g r i t y t h a t h e was. A celebration of life mass will be held at St. Michael’s Catholic Church in Snohom-

Bill Stringer passed away at Swedish Medical Center in Edmonds, Wash.. after a long battle with complications from Diabetes. He was born in Shreveport, La. to the late Doris E. and Wm. A. Stringer. Soon after his father returned home from World War II, his family moved to Lake Charles, La., where he grew up, graduated from Sulphur High School, an attended McNeese State College. In 1962 the Seattle Worlds Fair lured him away from his southern home. He and a friend drove all the way to Seattle, Wash., arriving one day before the fair closed-without enough money for admission and too proud to call home for help. Instead, he found a job at the Olympic Hotel and settled down to life in the N o r t h we s t . M a r r i a g e a n d children followed. Already an avid outdoors-man, he soon discovered salmon fishing a n d fe l l i n l ove w i t h t h e natural beauty and adventure that the Pacific Northwest provided. Fishing, hiking, backwoods camping, and scuba diving were his favorite past times. Seldom without a boat, he considered the Puget Sound his second home. That first job at the Olympic Hotel provided an opportunity for him to enter the field of refrigeration engineering. One that he enjoyed for over 20 years. Beginning as Asst. Chief Engineer, then promoted to Chief Engineer at the Olympic Hotel, followed by 12 years as Chief Engineer at Carnation Dair y. Eventually retiring from Seattle Housing Authority as M a n a g e r. o f t w o S e n i o r Buildings.

GOP tries to undercut nuclear deal Lawmakers warn Iran that any agreement reached with President Barack Obama is unenforceable. By Bradley Klapper and Deb Riechmann Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Republican lawmakers warned the leaders of Iran on Monday that any nuclear deal they cut with President Barack Obama could expire the day he leaves office. The White House denounced the GOP’s latest effort to undercut the international negotiations as a “rush to war.” Monday’s open letter from 47 GOP senators marked an unusually public and aggressive attempt to undermine Obama and five world powers as negotiators try to strike an initial deal by the end of March to limit Iran’s nuclear programs. Republicans say a deal would be insufficient and unenforceable, and they have made a series of proposals to undercut or block it — from requiring Senate say-so on any agreement to ordering new penalty sanctions against Iran or even making a pre-emptive declaration of war. Obama, noting that some in Iran also want no part of any deal, said: “I think it’s somewhat ironic that some members of Congress want to make common cause with the hardliners in Iran. It’s an unusual coalition.” The letter was written by freshman Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas, who opposes negotiations with Iran. It’s addressed to the “Leaders of the Islamic

Sen.-elect Tom Cotton, R-Ark., waves at his election watch party in North Little Rock, Arkansas, on Nov. 4. Cotton and 46 other Republicans warned Monday that any agreement the Obama administration strikes with Iran to limit Tehran’s nuclear program may be short-lived unless Congress approves the deal.
Republic of Iran” and presents itself as a constitutional primer to the government of an American adversary. Explaining the difference between a Senate-ratified treaty and a mere agreement between Obama and Iran’s Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the senators warned, “The next president could revoke such an executive agreement with the stroke of a pen, and future Congresses could modify the terms of the agreement at any time.” Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammed Javad Zarif dismissed the letter as a “propaganda ploy” and noting that many international deals are “mere executive agreements.” He suggested the senators were undermining not only the prospective deal with Iran but other international agreements as well. With Cotton presiding over
the Senate on Monday, Democratic leader Harry Reid spoke out, saying Republicans were driven by animosity toward Obama and unwilling to recognize that American voters had twice elected him president. “Let’s be very clear: Republicans are undermining our commander-in-chief while empowering the ayatollahs,” Reid said. The Republicans’ move comes just days after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke to Congress at Republican House Speaker John Boehner’s invitation. In his address, Netanyahu bluntly warned the United States that a deal would pave Iran’s path to a nuclear bomb. The White House denounced Cotton’s letter, saying it was part of an ongoing partisan strategy to undermine the president’s ability to conduct
foreign policy. Press secretary Josh Earnest said “the rush to war, or at least the rush to the military option, that many Republicans are advocating is not at all in the best interest of the United States.” Not all Republican senators are united. One significant signature missing from Monday’s letter was Bob Corker of Tennessee, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman. Action on any new legislation challenging the administration’s strategy would be likely to begin with him. Still, even if all parties to the international talks reject the letter as a stunt, the mounting opposition to an accord could have repercussions. Negotiating alongside the U.S. are Britain, China, France, Germany and Russia. The Obama administration believes it has authority to lift most trade, oil and financial sanctions that would be pertinent to the nuclear deal in exchange for an Iranian promise to limit its nuclear programs. For the rest, it needs Congress’ approval. And lawmakers could approve new Iran sanctions to complicate matters. Nuclear negotiations resume next week in Switzerland. Officials say the parties have been speaking about a multi-step agreement that would freeze Iran’s uranium enrichment program for at least a decade before gradually lifting restrictions. Sanctions relief would similarly be phased in. Iran says its program is solely for peaceful energy and medical research purposes. The deadline for the whole agreement is July.
Survey shows gun ownership declining By Emily Swanson Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The number of Americans who live in a household with at least one gun is lower than it’s ever been, according to a major trend survey that finds the decline in gun ownership is paralleled by a reduction in the number of Americans who hunt. According to the latest General Social Survey, 32 percent of Americans either own a firearm themselves or live with someone who does, which ties a record low set in 2010. That’s a significant decline since the late 1970s and early 1980s, when about half of Americans told researchers there was a gun in their household. The General Social Survey is conducted by NORC, an independent research organization based at the University of Chicago, with money from the National Science Foundation. Because of its long-running and comprehensive set of questions about the demographics, behaviors and attitudes of the American public, it is a highly regarded source of data about

social trends. Data from the 2014 survey was released last week, and an analysis of its findings on gun ownership and attitudes toward gun permits was conducted by General Social Survey staff. The drop in the number of Americans who own a gun or live in a household with one is probably linked to a decline in the popularity of hunting, from 32 percent who said they lived in a household with at least one
hunter in 1977 to less than half that number saying so now. That the number of households with at least one gun is declining doesn’t necessarily mean that the number being purchased is on the decline. Data from the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check system shows that in recent years there’s actually been an increase in the number of background checks being run, suggesting the total number of firearms being
purchased is going up. But those are concentrated in fewer hands than they were in the 1980s, the General Social Survey finds. The 2014 poll finds that 22 percent of Americans own a firearm, down from a high of 31 percent who said so in 1985. The survey also finds a shrinking gender gap in personal firearm ownership as a result of a decline in the percentage of men who own one, from 50 percent in 1980 to 35 percent in 2014. The percentage among women has held fairly steady since 1980, with 12 percent now saying they personally own a gun. The poll finds half of Republicans live in households with at least one gun, which is twice as high as ownership among Democrats or independents. People in higher-income households are significantly more likely than those in lowerincome households to own a gun, the survey finds. Gun ownership rates also vary by race, with 4 in 10 white Americans living in households with a gun compared with less than 2 in 10 blacks and Hispanics.
Texas seeks to replenish execution drug By Michael Graczyk Associated Press
HUNTSVILLE, Texas — Texas’ prison agency is scrambling to find a supplier to replenish its inventory of execution drugs, which will be used up if the state goes forward with two lethal injections scheduled for this week and next. Prison officials have enough pentobarbital for the scheduled executions of Manuel Vasquez on Wednesday and Randall Mays on March 18, but they don’t know how they will conduct lethal injections on four others scheduled for April. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice declined to
say why it has not been able to obtain more pentobarbital from the same compounding pharmacy that provided the current batch of the powerful sedative last March. The state switched to that source several months after its previous supplier cut ties, citing hate mail and potential litigation after its name became public through an open records request from The Associated Press. Prison officials have since waged a legal battle to keep the name of its latest supplier secret, but it’s unclear how much longer they can do so after a state judge last year ordered the agency to divulge the source. That ruling is on
hold pending the outcome of the state’s appeal. Prisons spokesman Jason Clark said the state’s lawyers have advised the agency not to comment on whether the current supplier has backed out or whether the judge’s order has affected its ability to find a supplier. Although Texas, traditionally the nation’s busiest death penalty state, faces the most imminent deadline for replenishing its pentobarbital supply, other states are experiencing similar problems. For example, South Carolina ran out of pentobarbital — part of its three-drug execution formula — when the drug expired in 2013, and the state has been
unable to replenish its supplies because it can’t find a company willing to sell them anymore, Corrections Director Bryan Stirling recently told the AP. The state’s last execution was in 2011, and no new executions have been scheduled because cases are tied up in the appeals process. If Texas executes Vasquez and Mays as scheduled, a new supply of pentobarbital will be needed by April 9 when Kent Sprouse is scheduled to die for the shooting deaths of a North Texas police officer and another man in 2002. Three other prisoners are set to follow Sprouse to the death chamber in April, and at least one more is set for May.
ACROSS THE U.S.
Obama traded emails with private Clinton account WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama knew that Hillary Rodham Clinton conducted business on a nongovernment email account while secretary of state, but only recently learned the details of the privately run system she was operating, the White House said Monday. The White House has drawn scrutiny over whether Obama or his aides should have done more to ensure Clinton’s correspondence was secure and properly preserved. In a weekend interview, Obama told CBS News that it was only recently “through news reports” that he’d learned that Clinton was using a nongovernment email system. But White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Monday that Obama had personally exchanged emails with Clinton on her private account and was therefore familiar with the address.
N.C.: Truck-train collision Authorities say at least 55 people were injured after an Amtrak train collided Monday with a tractor-trailer that was stuck on the tracks. One of the injuries was serious. The North Carolina State Highway Patrol said the male truck driver was not injured. Officials said the driver was trying to make a difficult left-hand turn when he got stuck on the tracks in Halifax.
Texas: Ships collide A portion of the Houston Ship Channel was shut after two 600-foot ships collided in the fog. The Coast Guard said a gasoline additive aboard a chemical tanker is no longer leaking and crews are assessing how much spilled Monday. The Coast Guard said no injuries are reported but the immediate area has been closed.
N.Y.: Plane’s brakes were on The pilots of a Delta Flight 1086 that skidded off a runway at LaGuardia Airport last week in a snowstorm have told investigators that automatic systems designed to slow down the plane weren’t working properly. The pilots said the plane’s automatic brakes were set to “max,” but they did not sense any deceleration as the aircraft veered toward Flushing Bay. The plane’s automatic spoilers didn’t deploy, but the first officer deployed them manually.
Mass.: Bomb victim testifies A woman testifying from a wheelchair Monday in the Boston Marathon bombing trial recalled shielding her husband from the sight of his mangled leg, a bystander frantically trying to extinguish the flames on her body, and coming to grips with becoming a double amputee. Jessica Kensky said she and her husband, Patrick Downes, each lost a left leg in the 2013 attack. Downes is the nephew of Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Michael Downes. Kensky’s account came during the third day of testimony in the federal death penalty trial of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, whose lawyers have acknowledged his involvement but insist he was influenced by his older brother, Tamerlan, who was killed during a getaway attempt.
AROUND THE WORLD Chad: Boko Haram attacked Soldiers from Chad and Niger launched the largest international push yet to defeat Nigeria’s Islamic extremists whose war has spilled over into neighboring countries, officials and witnesses said Monday. The push marks a sharp escalation by African nations against Boko Haram nearly six years after the group began its insurrection. The new offensive includes troops from Niger for the first time, in addition to Chadian forces that were already carrying out missions in Nigeria.
Britain: Show dog poisoned Jagger, a 3-year-old Irish Setter, collapsed and died after leaving Crufts, Britain’s premier dog show, with a bellyful of poisoned beef. The dog died Friday shortly after returning to his home in Belgium from the show in Birmingham. A post-mortem examination found poisoned slug- killer cubes in his stomach, according to Jeremy Bott, one of Jagger’s co-owners. Police in Belgium and Britain said they have not been asked to investigate. From Herald news services

Bull market turns 6 after rising from ashes By Steve Rothwell Associated Press
NEW YORK — In 2009 the stock market was filled with panic. The housing market had collapsed. Lehman Brothers had gone under and General Motors was on the verge of bankruptcy reorganization. The U.S. was in a deep recession, and stocks had plunged 57 percent from their high in October 2007. Fast forward six years, and investors are enjoying one of the longest bull markets since the 1940s. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index has more than tripled since bottoming out at 676.53 on March 9, 2009. The bull has
pushed through a U.S. debt crisis, an escalating conflict in the Middle East, renewed tensions with Russia over Ukraine and Europe’s stagnating economy. So has this bull run its course? Most market strategists haven’t yet seen the signs that typically accompany a market peak. Investors are yet to become rash, or overconfident. “Bull markets end not because they grow old. They end because some excesses build,” says Stephen Freedman, head of cross-asset strategy at UBS Wealth Management. Here are questions and answers about the run-up in stocks: Q: Why do stocks keep rising?
A: It’s a powerful combination of higher corporate profits and a growing economy. The main driver is company earnings. Companies slashed costs in response to the Great Recession that began in December 2007. That helped boost profit margins when demand began to recover. As a result, earnings per share have risen consistently since the end of the recession in 2009. Companies in the S&P 500 are forecast to generate record earnings of $119.35 per share this year, nearly double what they earned in 2009. Hiring is picking up and costs are down, and that means Americans are more confident about the economy than at any time
since the recession. Unemployment has fallen to 5.5 percent from a peak of 10 percent in 2009. A plunge in the price of oil has pushed down gas prices and put more money in Americans’ pockets. Most economists forecast growth of more than 3 percent this year. As investors become more confident about growth, they’re willing to pay more for stocks. The average price-to-earnings ratio for an S&P 500 company, which measures how much investors are willing to pay for every dollar in earnings, stands at 17.2. Six years ago, it was 11.

Alcoa is taking another step to bolster its stake in the aerospace industry with a $1.5 billion deal to buy titanium supplier RTI International Metals. The New York-based company said Monday that it will buy the specialty metal products company in an all-stock deal. Alcoa said the aerospace and defense industries accounted for 80 percent of Pittsburgh-based RTI’s
revenues last year. Alcoa has been shifting from its traditional role of mining and smelting aluminum to becoming a more diversified maker of lightweight metal and alloy products for aerospace, autos and other industries. It has benefited from demand for aluminum and other lightweight materials used to make planes more fuel-efficient. Last week, Alcoa said it completed its acquisition of the German titanium and aluminum

Chantix warnings The Food and Drug Administration said it will keep a bold-letter warning on Pfizer’s anti-smoking drug Chantix about suicidal behavior and other psychiatric problems. Pfizer Inc. asked the agency last year to drop the warning, pointing to its own analyses that found no difference in psychiatric problems between people taking Chantix and other stop-smoking treatments. But the FDA said Pfizer’s data did not examine all types of psychiatric problems and had limitations preventing regulators “from drawing reliable conclusions.”

The new technology does not come cheap: The new MacBooks will start at $1,299, and a faster version with more memory will sell for $1,599; they begin shipping April 10. The MacBook Air and MacBook Pro lines will receive some slight upgrades, with new versions beginning to ship immediately. The launch event began with the announcement that HBO’s streaming service will debut on Apple TV and devices exclusively next month. HBO chief executive Richard Plepler said the HBO Now service will debut in April for $14.99 a month, with the first month free for
customers who sign up early. Plepler said the streaming service will be available exclusively for a time on apps for Apple devices as well as Apple TV. Cook then said Apple TV’s price will be lowered from $99 to $69. As for the watch, analysts say Apple had yet to make a persuasive case for why consumers should pay hundreds of dollars for them. “Smartphones already offer a convenient way to check the time, access the web and apps, and increasingly pay for products,” Cathy Boyle, senior mobile analyst at eMarketer, said in an email Monday morning. “So, to succeed with a smartwatch, Apple needs to create a compelling use case for the device, a feature set that offers far more than simply saving consumers the few seconds it takes to pull a smartphone out of a pocket or purse.”

Four of the five bull markets since 1970 ended as investors got spooked by a recession, or the anticipation of one. Bank of America analysts say that the most likely threat would be rising inflation. That could cause a sell-off in bonds, sending shock waves throughout financial markets. Another threat is a slump in earnings. That could happen if the surging dollar, already at a 12-year high against the euro, grows even stronger, making U.S. goods more expensive to customers overseas and translating into fewer dollars to corporate bottom lines.

IN OUR VIEW | Navy electronic warfare training
Forests no place for training A proposal by the U.S. Navy to use forest lands on the Olympic Peninsula and elsewhere in the state for electronic warfare training by jets based at Naval Station Whidbey Island has received a “not interested” from the state. The response from the U.S. Forest Service should be the same. The Navy has sought to increase its use of National Forest and state Department of Natural Resources land west of Olympic National Park, using forest roads open to the public to send out three trucks about the size of a pickup and camper equipped with devices that emit electromagnetic signals. The intent is for Whidbey’s EA-18G Growler jets, flying around 10,000 feet in altitude, to search for and locate the signals and simulate elimination of the targets. Currently, the training is performed in Idaho. The Navy is
seeking training closer to the Whidbey base. The response from state Public Lands Commissioner Peter Goldmark earlier this month was that the state would not be participating in the training exercise. Natural Resources later told the Associated Press that use of the state’s lands for training “would adversely impact the diverse and complex uses that we’re mandated to manage on behalf of the public.” In addition to the annoyance and noise from increased jet flights over the Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest and the Colville and Okanogan-Wenatchee national forests, there is also a lack of clarity from the Navy about the potential for harm from the electromagnetic signals used in the training. In its own information about the proposal, the Navy
attempts to minimize the risk from the signals, comparing them to the type of emissions from cellphones and Bluetooth devices. The emitters, when in use, would be 14 feet off the ground, directing the signals into the sky. The trucks themselves would be cordoned off in a 100-foot radius with signs reading, “Warning/ Radio Frequency Hazard; Personnel Hazard Exists In This Area; Keep Moving.” But accidental direction of the electronic signals could be a problem for any person, animal or bird in their path. A Navy spokesman told the Peninsula Daily News in October that “if someone is in the exclusion area for more than 15 minutes, that’s a ballpark estimate for when there would be some concern for potential to injure, to receive burns.” Clearly, this involves signals much stronger than your
cellphone or Bluetooth device. Each truck’s two-person crew would be on hand to tell people not to loiter, but that puts a lot of expectation on how attentive the crews would be. The Navy completed its own environmental assessment and found no significant impact from its proposal. With a no from the state, the Navy now awaits permission from the U.S. Forest Service. The need for the Navy to train its fliers for their missions isn’t being challenged, but the potential for harm to people and wildlife calls for conditions and an environment that offer better control and safety than are available in forest lands open to the public. One suggestion for a more suitable site: How about the 327,000 secured acres of Joint Base Lewis McChord’s Yakima Training Center?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■MARYSVILLE TRAINS
Fire trucks made to wait is wrong Last Thursday at 8:15 a.m. I was going down Fourth Street on my way to an appointment when the railroad guardrail went down in front of me and I had to stop for a mile-long coal train. I was upset at having to wait for this train to pass right at a time people were headed to work, but not as upset as the fire truck with lights a blazing that had to stop next to me; I assume they were on their way to an emergency as all their lights and siren were on, but they had to wait the 15 to 20 minutes for the train to pass. I certainly hope the people having the emergency did not die or have their house burn down while we all waited for the train to pass. Can’t the length of these trains be limited or not allowed to pass through town during rush-hour? Making the fire department wait while the train passes seems like a dangerous situation to me.

■■COURTHOUSE
New historic district targeted Barely five years ago, Everett citizens were proud to learn that our leaders had submitted an application to the federal government and received confirmation for the Hewitt Avenue National Historic District. A great deal of effort and pride were invested by this city’s volunteer historical commission and supporting staff to get it done. It took taxpayer dollars for a highly qualified outside historic architecture firm to accomplish the inventory and application, as well as for the sign replacements, but many felt it was worth the cost for the ongoing effort to add new and attractive amenities to our central downtown. How things have changed! On Feb. 3, Herald reporter Noah Haglund first broke the news of an alarming plan to resolve the city-county parking spat, which Snohomish Tribune writer Melanie Russell then confirmed and elaborated on last week. This plan involves a new parking garage which will destroy several heritage buildings on Hewitt’s south side, inside Everett’s new Historic District. What a city! Our leaders no sooner apply for, receive, and post the signs for Everett’s Hewitt National Historic District, 2010-12, but now they’ve

dreamed up this clever plan to destroy and throw into the landfill historically contributing buildings on the south side of Hewitt between Oakes and Rockefeller. Why? To make peace with the county gang trying ever so hard to build a new courthouse? Not only does this totally inappropriate plan violate the city’s own comprehensive plan, which states that high respect be paid to Everett’s historic resources, gleaned from surveys of Everett citizens, but it also swiftly and permanently kills the hard-earned historical district for which these same citizens saw their tax dollars spent for outside consultants and major resigning of Hewitt. No wonder our leaders never got the I-5 exit signs erected for “Historic District!” They were just kidding us all along. I see no humor here; how about you? Dave Ramstad Everett
Responsibility to contribute? So Wisconsin has passed a so-called “right to work” law, whereby private-sector workers can’t be forced to pay union dues, even while they may derive benefits from being represented by the union. Perhaps we need “right to live” laws, whereby citizens can’t be forced to pay taxes, even while they may derive government benefits (schools, fire/police protection, roads, etc.) Gomer Thomas Arlington
■■CHILD PORN
Evich should have been in prison In Saturday’s Herald, the article, “Man who raped and killed boy arrested for child porn,” stated that Andrew Nicholas Evich was convicted in Whatcom County in 1974 of the sexual assault and murder of a six-year-old boy. The next sentence tells us this man was sent back to prison in 1985 after being convicted of contributing to the delinquency of a minor for sexual contact with a 15-year-old. Then in 1998 again convicted for receiving child pornography and sentenced to five years in federal prison. Now here we are in 2015 and Mr. Evich has again been arrested for possessing and distributing child pornography, specifically images of a child rape. In less than 11 years this individual who raped and murdered a 6-year-old boy is released into society! How does one who commits such a monstrous crime get out of prison in less than 11 years? I for one am not a supporter of the death penalty. Rather, life in prison with no chance of parole fits that crime for sure, in my mind. There was no justice for that poor little boy or his family. I am told there was a time when this man’s fellow prisoners would have administered

■■SHELL OIL PROJECT
More hurdles hurt business
Regarding the article, “Hearing examiner says Shell oil project needs full review”: I couldn’t help but feel discouraged on behalf of our workers and state economy when I read of the decision in Skagit County to require the Shell Oil East Gate Rail project to navigate yet another regulatory hurdle. Departure from the standard review process once conducted by the governing body of the affected area/county constitutes regulatory overreach that is harmful to Washington’s business climate. And rather than an isolated case, this marks a disturbing, accelerating trend that should concern anyone who cares about our state’s economic future. Through actions like this, we harm our workers and supporting businesses who rely on timely, fair approval processes for their livelihood. Thankfully, Shell leadership appears to have the stamina to see the project through, despite learning that there will now be a new, ill-defined process for which there is no standard scope of review, but that the state instead has said will be conducted on a “case-by-case basis.” Leadership in Olympia should carefully consider the consequences of this repetitive regulatory power-grab, as it sends a chilling message to companies looking to pursue projects — and the accompanying valuable investments — in our infrastructure. Other businesses looking to invest here may not have the fortitude or the resources to take such risk, and it is our workers and our economy that will suffer as a result. Jack McRae Edmonds
Clinton secrecy only raises more suspicion
T
he Hillary Clinton email controversy is a reminder of one inescapable fact: She comes with baggage. Not the kind that fits in the overhead bin, either. I’m talking steamer trunks. How could anyone serve four years as secretary of state with no official email account, instead conducting business from a private address with its own domain and server? The answer is: Deliberately. EUGENE ROBINSON The only reason for Clinton to go through the trouble of setting up this system would be to ensure that nobody got to rummage freely through her communications, personal or official. She must have wanted to be able to decide which emails would become part of the historical record and which wouldn’t. With Clinton widely expected to run for president, the email flap projects the sense that she considers herself both embattled and entitled. In the end, I’m not convinced that voters will necessarily care how Clinton’s electronic communications were routed. But they may well ask themselves whether they’re ready for the dynasty and the drama. Clinton has known at least since August that her exclusive use of a private email account had the makings of a potential scandal. She says she has turned over 55,000 pages of emails to the State Department to be archived. But she is asking everyone to take her word that all the rest of her email correspondence is personal and therefore off-limits. House Republicans on the Benghazi select committee appear set to spend months chasing their tails. The State Department has given about 300 of Clinton’s emails to the committee, and the panel’s chairman, Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-South Carolina, said Sunday that “there are gaps of months and months and months.” He mentioned a day in 2011 when Clinton, on a trip to Libya, was photographed using her BlackBerry. Yet, Gowdy said, “We have no emails from that day. In fact, we have no emails from that trip.” If this whole thing becomes just another flare-up in the GOP’s Benghazi obsession, Clinton should be relieved. The name Benghazi may be great for fundraising and rallying the Republican faithful, but the tragedy itself has been investigated with a magnifying glass and a fine-toothed comb. There is no there there. Clinton should be happy having Gowdy and his committee go back over this well-plowed ground — rather than, say, conduct a broader examination of U.S. policy in Libya, where an intervention described as “leading from behind,” with inconsistent follow-up, has left chaos and a new branch of the Islamic State. From Clinton’s point of view, Benghazi fever would certainly be preferable to a careful examination of those emails for any light they might shed on the fundraising practices of the Clinton Foundation. The huge nonprofit announced it would not accept new donations from foreign governments while Clinton was secretary of state but began taking them again when she stepped down. Did any such donors receive special access or treatment while Clinton was in office? I’m betting that no evidence of any such thing will be found — at least not in the 55,000 pages that have been turned over. As for the rest of her email correspondence, we may never know what’s in there. Much of it, I’m sure, is legitimately private and none of our business. Some may fit into a public-private gray area. Some may be about the foundation. All of it, however, is firmly in Clinton’s possession — the email server reportedly sits in one of her homes — and therefore she has the advantage in any fight over disclosure. When Clinton became secretary of state in 2009, she was still recovering from a bruising and unexpected defeat in the Democratic primaries the year before. The prospect of another presidential run must have seemed distant and uninviting, perhaps like spending two years pounding oneself on the head with a hammer. Yet some impulse compelled her to lock down her email communications so they would always remain in her control. Long after Republicans punch themselves out over Benghazi, after questions about Clinton Foundation funding are either answered or deemed unanswerable, after Clinton either cruises to the nomination or fools everyone by not running, the mystery will remain: Why does she act as if she has something to hide, even when she doesn’t?

Crash ‘Simpsons’ co-creator Sam Simon dies at 59 From Page A1

consulted after Saturday’s title game and chose to postpone the assembly. It’s now scheduled for Friday. Doyle was taking just one class, photography, at the high school during his final semester. In a letter for families Sunday, Lynnwood High Principal David Golden said Doyle was well-liked by staff and students: “Those who knew Brandon knew him as a friendly, respectful young man who was devoted to his academics.” Doyle loved cars and worked part time at Discount Tires, Golden said Monday. He participated in football and track his first two years of high school. Doyle enrolled at Edmonds Community College his junior year. Since then, he split time between Lynnwood High and the college. In his letter, Golden told parents that grief is a process with no timetable. “We encourage you to be especially vigilant in providing a safe and nurturing support system so that your student knows that he or she can come to you at any time,” he wrote. English and yearbook teacher Sara Hall had Doyle in a class when he was a sophomore. He’d occasionally pop into her classroom afterward to ask questions and she always enjoyed the visits. “He was a wonderful young man,” she said. Eric Stevick: 425-3393446; stevick@heraldnet. com.

Sam Simon, a co-creator of “The Simpsons” and animal-rights advocate who made a midlife career shift into philanthropy and channeled much of his personal fortune into social causes, has died. Simon died Sunday at his home in Pacific Palisades, California, his agent, Andy Patman said. He was 59. He was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer in 2011. After stints writing for “Taxi,” “Cheers” and “The Tracey Ullman Show,” Simon helped launch “The Simpsons.” During his writing and producing career, he collected nine prime-time Emmy awards. He left “The Simpsons” after its fourth season under a deal that rewarded him with ongoing royalties from the show, which is now in its 26th season. He then established the Sam Simon Foundation, which rescues dogs from animal shelters and trains

problem, too. Highway 104 to the Edmonds-Kingston ferry dock also is affected by the trains. With normal traffic patterns, about 40 trains go through the city each day. That shuts down access to the city’s waterfront for about two hours a day, according to city officials. “This has been going on for many, many years,” McChesney said. “We own and operate properties on
them to assist the disabled. He also donated to Mercy for Animals and Sam Simon the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society, among other groups. In 2013, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals’ Norfolk, Virginia, headquarters were christened the Sam Simon Center in recognition of his support for that organization. Simon also funded a Los Angeles food bank. In an interview with The Associated Press in 2013, Simon voiced a desire to spend all of his money on charitable causes. “I’m supporting the charities that I supported during my lifetime,” he said, “and I want to continue to do that.” Simon had grown up in Beverly Hills across the street from Groucho Marx, though his father was in the garment industry, not show business.
After turning his drawing talent into a job at an animation studio that made cartoons for kids, Simon submitted a script, on spec, to the ABC comedy “Taxi.” His script was bought and produced, and Simon, in his 20s, was hired as a staff writer and soon rose to be the showrunner. From there he joined a new NBC sitcom called “Cheers,” where he was staff writer for its defining first three seasons. In 1987 he became a writer and executive producer on the Fox sketch-comedy series “The Tracey Ullman Show,” where he was teamed alongside James L. Brooks, with whom he had worked on “Cheers” and “Taxi,” and cartoonist Matt Groening. This trio became the founding fathers of “The Simpsons.” On Monday, Groening saluted Simon’s “phenomenal talents, sharp intelligence and sly sense of humor,” while Brooks called him “truly one of the great ones. He found so much outside the work
to give him pleasure and left so much behind for others.” “The Simpsons” began as interstitial cartoon clips aired during the otherwise live-action “Ullman” show until, in 1989, it was spun off as a Fox half-hour of its own. Simon was named creative supervisor, and he hired the first writing staff as well as creating several Springfield citizens, including Mr. Burns, the cadaverous industrialist, and Dr. Hibbert, the buffoonish physician. The show — TV’s first successful prime-time animated series since “The Flintstones” nearly three decades before — caught the public off-guard with its sassy but perceptive look at the culture and opened the door for a new television genre of animation geared toward adults. “With ‘The Simpsons,’ people didn’t know what they were gonna see,” said Simon. “They didn’t have a clue.” The show was given time and free reign to flourish by the fledgling Fox network, which desperately needed a hit. “I don’t
think you get that sort of creative freedom with any broadcast shows today.” Simon left “The Simpsons” in 1994 owing to a strained relationship with Groening. Not only did he not play any subsequent role in the series, he claimed to never have watched it after stepping away, even as his name remained in the weekly credits along with Groening’s and Brooks’. It was a lucrative departure. Simon’s exit deal entitled him to royalties from “The Simpsons” that, more than a quarter-century later, annually paid Simon tens of millions of dollars. That annuity bankrolled the causes and alternative lifestyle (including amateur boxing and high-stakes poker) that increasingly he came to embrace. “I’m not sad,” Simon declared in 2013, as he battled an illness that his doctors were saying might claim him within months. “I’m happy. I don’t feel angry and bitter. I want to do whatever I can to survive.”
the west side of the tracks that are encumbered every day by train traffic.” The stretch of tracks between Point Wells and north of downtown Edmonds is the only part of the main rail line that is single-tracked, he said. BNSF Railway plans to add double tracks there, McChesney said. “You can see how these grade crossings will become a very serious problem over time.” The two street crossings are Main and Dayton streets. Passing trains block the two streets, which provide access to the nearby beach, pier and other waterfront
areas. If a train breaks down in the area, which happens occasionally, it can leave people stranded on either side of the tracks for an hour or more and keep emergency vehicles from getting into the area, city officials say. The senior center is west of the tracks. Adding to the traffic woes are the 3.8 million walkon passengers and drivers each year who board ferries, and have to cross the tracks to do so. Edmonds Mayor Dave Earling said he met individually with the port’s commissioners about the area’s traffic issues. “They
quickly tuned in to the fact that the resulting study will be as important to them as to the people in the city of Edmonds itself,” he said. Still unknown is whether the Legislature will approve $1.2 million in state money for the study. “Obviously, a key step in any major capital project is vetting the alternatives, getting the public involved and doing some design work on the preferred alternatives,” Doherty said. “Whatever alternative we come up with through this process will require even more money.” Basically, roadways
could be constructed over or under the tracks. Or, as suggested by a local couple, a trench could be constructed to allow trains to pass through the city below grade, with traffic unimpeded at ground level at Dayton and Main streets. Last year, the city paid Tetra Tech, a Seattle consulting firm, $10,000 to take a preliminary look at both the cost and the engineering challenges of a trench. The 7,800-foot trench would cost an estimated $250 million to $290 million, and there would be significant engineering challenges, the report said.

Students dance during a class at Arlington’s Northwest Dance and Acro studio.
Instructor’s ‘positivity’ allows kids to mature at Northwest Dance and Acro in Arlington By Amy Watkins For The Herald Business Journal
ARLINGTON — Augga Hawkins was trained as a dancer and choreographer in her native China, but she thought that part of her life was past her. She was raising five children with her husband Bruce Hawkins and that kept her pretty busy. As they grew older, she began to teach them how to dance and wanted to do more instructing. Hawkins eventually taught gymnastics classes on and off for about two years. Then in 2007, she opened Northwest Dance and Acro in a small building on 172nd Street NE. “Acro for acrobatics means gymnastic, tumbling, balance, flexibility, and contortion, all put together,” said Hawkins, 46. Hawkins had about 60 students then but attendance has steadily grown. In 2013,
she moved to a new space at 17306 Smokey Point Drive. The 6,000-square-foot location is twice the size of the first and includes four studio spaces, parent viewing areas, and a student lounge. Hawkins and nine other dance instructors at Northwest Dance and Acro now teach about 300 students. Hawkins got her start in dance at age 12 while growing up in Sichuan, a province in southwest China. She was selected at a tryout to train in dance at the Central University of Nationalities, in Beijing. She remembers taking a three-hour train ride to arrive at her new home. For seven years she trained in ballet, acrobatics, Chinese ethnic minority dancing, jazz, lyrical and international dancing. “It wasn’t like here where everybody takes a class,” Hawkins said. “It’s different because the government trains
you. It’s kind of your future job.” After the first five years, Hawkins could either begin a master’s degree in dance or choreography or audition for a dance company.

They eventually married. Augga Hawkins traveled to Utah and taught for a year in the university’s dance department before she and her husband moved to Washington in 1988.

overall winner awards in solos, duos, trios and teams. Dancers also from the studio received national attention the summer of 2010 when they performed as one of the top 48 acts on the television show, “America’s Got Talent.” “I think maybe in another two years we might audition again (for ‘America’s Got Talent’),” Hawkins said. “It’s a lot of work but is worth it when you have talent.”
Above all, Hawkins wants her studio to be a positive place for dancers to grow. Kari Darby of Marysville has seen it firsthand with her daughters, Klara, 8, and Sophia, 5, who participated in master classes in August. “The way Augga is with the children is phenomenal,” she said. “I love her positivity. She can take a group of kids and make them all feel good about themselves.”
Tips to dealing with conflict with adult children M ary was in tears: “My 30-year-old daughter, Jane, is so angry with me. She won’t even return my phone calls,” she said. Jane wrote her mother an angry email. In it, she detailed a wide range of offenses her mother committed over many years. I read the email and could see that Jane was deeply angry and disappointed with her mom. Her story reminded me of my relationship with my father. When I was a young adult, even into my early 30s, I was very disappointed with my dad. My parents divorced when I was 13. I felt that my father had abandoned me when he re-married and adopted my stepmother’s kids. During my teen years, I had numerous conflicts with his wife, which I blamed on him. He wasn’t the father I would have picked out of the Sears catalog. It took me a long time to let go of those hurts and come to

As I had children of my own, and experienced the challenges of parenthood, I grew more forgiving of my own father. I had the opportunity to take care of him at the end of his life. He told me what a good son I was. “You’re a good boy,” he said. Even though I was a middle-aged adult, there is no greater compliment a son can hear from his father. Fathers and sons and mothers and daughters have high expectations of each other. The

bar is set high. It is easy for moms and dads to have clay feet in their children’s eyes. Some young adults struggle with resentments and disappointments that they have accumulated over the years of their growing up. These feelings can contaminate their relationship with their parents. If you are having challenges with your adult children, here are a few points to remember: History is viewed through your own lens. My father’s experience during the challenging years of his divorce, remarriage, and his mid 40s was completely different than my own. I was a teenager and then young adult, struggling to find my place on the adult stage. I wanted a dad who would show me the way but also let me find my own way — two conflicting desires that resulted in unrealistic expectations. My father was going through his own life crisis. He didn’t have much to offer me at that time.

The generation gap is real. “Baby boomers,” “Generation Xers” and “Millennials” see the world very differently. My parents were children of the Great Depression and World War II. I grew up in the 1960s. It’s unrealistic for us to compare our parent’s lives with our own experience. We were brought up in very different times. These differences visit each new generation. Don’t argue with your children about what happened. Our adult children want us to hear them, listen to them, and to acknowledge their experience even when our intentions were entirely different than they imagine. Explaining or justifying your choices will only intensify the conflict. Let them vent. Be patient. That is easier said than done. It takes young adults time to work these issues out. They won’t be rushed just because we want to have a better relationship with them. Give them

their space. Let them know how much you love them, want them to be happy and how sorry you are if you hurt them. Let them know that you want to be in their lives. Acknowledging their pain, their disappointments, and their experience doesn’t mean that you have the same view of history. It just means that you are sorry if you caused them pain. No parent wants to bring his or her children sorrow. You may have to deliver this message many times over — in cards, in emails, or letters over many months, and sometimes years. It’s a simple message of hope and reconciliation, but it says everything.

New mom sensitive about ‘her baby’
DAILY CROSSWORD
Adapted from a recent online discussion. Dear Carolyn: I recently gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. I feel that my husband and I have the right to call him our baby. We made him; he’s ours. Before he was born, my motherin-law would go on and on about “my baby,” meaning, her grandchild, and it irritated the crap out of me. I’m currently avoiding her phone calls because she hasn’t gone one day without calling him her baby. When she visited after the birth she said it two or three times a day and I had to fight the urge to punch her. Now I hear her FaceTiming my husband calling my son her baby every day. It’s been two months and I still feel stabby, hence the phone-call avoidance. How do I get her to stop, or get over this? My husband thinks I’m being petty. — He’s Not Your Baby! Well, that certainly doesn’t help. You might be overreacting, but your feelings are real and trace to something real. Sorting these out would go a lot better if your husband had your back. You and he need to talk about this, starting with your saying (calmly, I hope) that you’re willing to concede that you’ve
CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT overreacted, but you’d like some acknowledgment from him that there’s something to this — that brushing it off won’t make it go away. Whether yours are too high or hers are too low, somebody has an issue with boundaries here, and as the ones in charge, you and your husband need to work together to figure out the who, the why and the how. This conversation can’t be about getting his mom to stop using “my baby.” You can’t win that. It can and should be about cementing the primacy of your family, and your allegiances to each other. You’re obviously vulnerable on this point, and having your husband align with his mom was exactly what you (and therefore your little family) didn’t need. So address that vulnerability: “It seems petty to you, but I’m

asking you to consider that I’m a new mom, that my defenses have been triggered and that reassurance from you would go a long way right now.” Spelling it out is often a gift to a partner. When your marriage feels solid, I expect your mother-in-law’s gushing will no longer move the earth. To: My Baby: I get it. I’d be annoyed too. But you might put yourself in your mother-in-law’s shoes for a second, not to empathize with her, but to understand why she does it. Is there a cultural/family thing where everybody calls the youngest child in the family “my baby”? Or their favorite child (which I find even more icky)? She might just be acting out of habit, she might be clueless, she might be lonely, or she might be a wacko. Knowing why she does it will help you deal with it. — Anonymous And why it rankles so. If she were at peace with her motherin-law, then she’d be able to celebrate the gushing, or merely accept it: “Yay, more people in the world who love my baby.” Your good suggestion to understand the mother-in-law can also reveal to the new mama why she’s so threatened by her.

He’s happily single, so leave him alone
THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE
Dear Abby: I have never had a long-term relationship. My friends and family kept calling me out for it. I tried online dating and setups by friends and family, but nothing worked out. In fact, the constant questions only annoyed me more. With all my friends happily married and settled, I started resenting their intrusion into my life. A couple of years ago, I decided to take a break from dating because I couldn’t handle the stress anymore. Surprisingly, I enjoyed it. I never revealed this to my friends. After a few years of silence, my “well-wishers” began commenting again on my single status, and it annoys me to no end. I have started staying away from them. Is there any way I can convince everyone that I am a normal straight male who just likes to be left alone? I enjoy gettogethers, as long as the topic of my singlehood doesn’t become the joke of the day. Please advise. — Pretty Cool Dude In Pennsylvania Dear Pretty Cool Dude: Talk to some of your close friends and tell them you are happy being single. Tell them their comments about your single status and being made to feel like the “joke of the day” isn’t funny to you — it’s embarrassing. Tell them that if it doesn’t stop, they will be seeing less of you. Friends will be sensitive to your feelings, although occasionally they still may try to fix you up because some people can’t resist the urge to matchmake. Dear Abby: I attend a small church with two of my grandchildren, ages 5 and 10. About 90 percent of the time they are the ONLY children there. They are

very active in the church and are the bell ringers, candle lighters and offering collectors. They partake in the welcoming and special prayers, lead the Pledge of Allegiance and sing songs. I allow them to bring their iPads to occupy them during the sermon — on silent, of course. I feel that because they participate so much in all other areas and the “adult” sermon is usually over their heads, there is no harm done. My sister, however, insists it is rude and disrespectful. She is constantly getting after them, telling them to put their iPads away and pay attention. None of the other church members have a problem with it, not even the pastor. What do you think? Should they be able to continue to keep occupied and not be disruptive to others, or should they power them down? — Keeping The Peace In Missouri Dear Keeping The Peace: Right now those children are active, engaged and enthusiastic about participating in the services. I see nothing to be gained by forcing them to listen to a sermon they can neither relate to nor understand. Because the pastor and other church members have no objection to what your grandchildren are doing on their iPads, the person who should “power down” is your sister. Universal Uclick

(West’s double was “negative.”) When West led a club, his partner’s suit, South ruffed, cashed the ace of hearts and crossruffed. He sandwiched four heart ruffs in dummy around three

Harve Bennett, TV producer who saved ‘Star Trek’ film franchise, dies at 84 In the wake of the first “Star Trek� movie in 1979, producer Harve Bennett, who had a solid track record in TV with hits such as “The Mod Squad� and “The Six Million Dollar Man,� was called into a meeting with top Paramount Studio executives to talk about developing the second film in the series. Asked what he thought of the first one, Bennett — never short of chutzpah — told the execs, “I thought it was boring.� Challenged to make a better movie, he watched every episode of the original TV series and spotted one guest-star creature that intrigued him. The name: Khan. Bennett, 84, who is credited with saving that blockbuster movie franchise with his “Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan� and then producing three more films in the series, died Feb. 25 at Providence Medford Medical Center
in Medford, Oregon. He had been in declining health, said his stepdaughter, Tara Ettley. Bennett and his wife, Jani, retired to the Medford area several years ago. His death came two days before that of Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr. Spock in the “Star Trek� TV shows and movies. Bennett got his first taste of show business at 10 when he was selected to be a contestant on the nationally broadcast radio show “Quiz Kids.� He was so good at answering questions, especially on history, that he was on the competitive show 212 times before reaching the maximum age of 16. Nicholas Meyer, who directed “The Wrath of Khan,� said one of Bennett’s gifts was the ability to analyze shows and figure out what made them compelling. In the case of “Star Trek,� Bennett told
Meyer it came down to dynamics among three main characters. “Kirk was the leader and everyman,� Meyer said in an interview Friday. “Spock represented logic and McCoy was the bleeding heart liberal. You put that troika together and it all works.� For the villain, Bennett chose Khan Noonien Singh, extravagantly played in the 1967 “Star Trek� episode and the 1982 movie by Ricardo Montalban. Khan was head of a race of genetically altered superbeings. He was “a clear-cut antagonist,� Bennett told the Seattle Times in 2003. “A man of an intellect which equaled the combined trio’s intellect in a way, so it was a worthy adversary.� With the outer space story dynamics in place, Bennett still had to overcome numerous Earth-bound problems
to get the film made the way he wanted. Nimoy, for example, had tired of playing Spock. Bennett said he took the actor to dinner and asked him, “What if I offered you the greatest death scene since ‘Psycho’?� Nimoy’s climactic scene was seen as one of the reasons “Wrath of Khan� was a hit, far outdistancing the first “Star Trek� movie. In a 1996 Los Angeles Times interview, Bennett pointed out that The New York Times review of “Wrath of Khan� began, “Now, that’s more like it.� “I’ll never forget that,� Bennett said. “I’d like that on my tombstone.� Harve Bennett Fischman was born on Aug. 17, 1930, in Chicago. In addition to his wife, Bennett’s survivors include daughters Samantha, Callie and Susan; and a son, Christopher. By David Colker, Los Angeles Times

Can Tips slow down Great Dane?
COMMUNITY SPORTS
The Winterhawks’ Oliver Bjorkstrand scored 21 goals, had 15 assists and 36 points in a 12-game goalscoring streak which was snapped Saturday. By Nick Patterson Herald Writer
LYNNWOOD — Oliver Bjorkstrand is on the kind of roll rarely seen in WHL history. The Portland Winterhawks winger is lighting up scoreboards like a pinball machine, putting up numbers that place him among the elite in WHL history. And if the Everett Silvertips are to maintain pole position in the race for the U.S. Division championship, they’re going to have to find a way to slow the Great Dane down in Wednesday’s showdown. Bjorkstrand, a 19-year-old right wing from Denmark, may just be the frontrunner for the league’s MVP award. The 6-fooot, 168-pounder, who was a third-round pick by the NHL’s Columbus Blue Jackets in the 2013 NHL draft, leads the league in goals with 52 and ranks second in the league in scoring with 97 points. Bjorkstrand’s unique combination of elite skill, shot and skating ability make him a headache for any opponent he faces. “He’s right up there (with the best players Everett has faced this season),” said Everett assistant coach Brennan Sonne, who conducted Monday’s optional practice at Lynnwood Ice Center. “He’s extremely quick, he’s got an NHL shot, he just finds the nice quiet areas to get those passes from his linemates. He’s up there, See TIPS, Page C4

Dawgs ready for next step Washington’s baseball team, which advanced to an NCAA regional championship game last season, has its sights set on the College World Series. By Rich Myhre Herald Writer
A
year ago, the University of Washington baseball team was the surprise of the Pacific-12 Conference season. Picked for a next-to-last place finish in a preseason coaches poll, the Huskies went 41-17-1, placed second in the 11-team league and reached the championship game of the NCAA Tournament regional round.
Playing in a posh new ballpark, the Huskies were indeed a success story in 2013-14. And now, one year later, they hope to compose an equally triumphant sequel. Under sixth-year head coach Lindsay Meggs, the 2014 Pac-12 Coach of the Year, the Huskies will try to build on a season that was “a big step forward for us, both on and off the field,” Meggs said. “With our new ballpark and then finishing the season in the regional championship game at
(Mississippi), it kind of validated the plan we have for our program.” Though this year’s squad will be without eight players selected in last spring’s major league draft, there are plenty of top returnees, plus newcomers from an outstanding recruiting class. Already the potential is evident as Washington is 11-5 heading into this weekend’s opening conference series at UCLA. “We lost so many key people (to the draft), just like anybody
who has a big year typically does,” Meggs said. “So we have a lot of holes with a lot of new guys and a lot of young guys. It’s an inexperienced group that’s trying to find a way to win by merely hanging in there. “As I told our guys, if we’re going to be in this thing it’ll be because we’re playing our best baseball and finding a way to finish in the upper third of the league at the end (of the See UW, Page C5

They will, barring something unexpected, soon be squeezed out. “When you get better (as a team),” manager Lloyd McClendon said, “teams are harder to make.

The News Tribune
PEORIA, Ariz. — The exodus will start in the coming days. A shuffle from big-league camp to the minor-league clubhouse for some of the Mariners’ mostpromising prospects. This is inevitable. The Mariners transformed themselves in the off-season into a veteran club that has scant room, barring injuries, for even top prospects such as infielders D.J. Peterson and Ketel Marte. The same is true for most of those who

Gonzaga wins, advances to WCC title game By Michael Martinez Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Gonzaga struggled to get going in the first half and led Pepperdine by just two points at the break. However, once the seventh-ranked Bulldogs got going, they just ran away from the Waves. For the second consecutive game, Gonzaga used a big second-half run to put away an opponent, beat Pepperdine 79-61 Monday night to advance to its 18th straight West Coast Conference tournament final. Gonzaga plays BYU in the championship game on Tuesday night. Byron Wesley and Kyle Wiltjer combined to score 25 of the Bulldogs’ first 30 points in the second half as Gonzaga (31-2) took a 55-35 lead midway through the period. “It was great to watch our guys in that second half play defense, generate turnovers, generate deflections, get the ball off the glass and run,” Gonzaga coach Mark Few said. “That’s when we’re obviously at our best, when we can spread you out and post you with our bigs.” Wesley scored 25 points on 10 of 13 shooting, and Wiltjer, who had just three points in the first half, finished with 17. The Zags shot 58 percent in the final period (19 of 33), but their defense also caused a series of turnovers that turned the momentum in their favor.
The M’s could move D.J. Peterson from third to first base.

By Bob Dutton The News Tribune
PEORIA, Ariz. — The Seattle Mariners signed veteran right-hander Kevin Correia on Monday. Correia, 34, agreed to a minor-league deal that includes an invitation to bigleague camp. He is a 12-year veteran who has a 75-95 record with a 4.59 ERA while logging time with five clubs. “It was getting to the point where it was time to go, either way,” he said. “The offseason didn’t work out the way I was hoping it would have, but I’m happy where I landed.” Barring injuries to other pitchers, Correia appears likely to open the season at Triple-A Tacoma. He was working out near his home in San Diego prior to signing with the Mariners. “I’m not here to try to make the bullpen,” Correia said. “I’m here to try to make the rotation and that’s my main focus.” Correia was a combined 7-17 with a 5.44 ERA while

the roster’s final cut to 25 players. So, too, the competition between Taijuan Walker and Roenis Elias for the rotation’s lone opening. The odd-man out in both cases figure to head to Triple-A Tacoma. Competition is also fierce for bullpen jobs. Two or more relievers with big-league credentials are likely ticketed for the Tacoma. For many, though, the dream is already on borrowed time. The Mariners opened their minor-league camp Monday when pitchers and catchers reported — many of those players were already here after taking part in a mini-camp that ended Sunday. Full minor-league workouts begin March 16. The clock is ticking. “It’s hard (not to get caught up in the opportunity),” Peterson said. “You want to make a good impression. ... You’ve just got to stick with the basics and not try to impress. Eventually, it will all come. “It’s not where you start. It’s where you finish.” The start, for many, will be Tacoma. For others, Double-A Jackson. The finish? That’s one big TBD. “I don’t know what’s going to happen,” said left-hander Danny Hultzen, who is back after two years of shoulder miseries. “I just want to stay healthy. Whatever happens, happens. I’m just excited to be able to play again.” Often, the impression a player makes in big-league camp proves pivotal when the big club goes looking for replacements. Jones and reliever Dominic Leone gained early-season summonses a year ago because of their spring performance. While last year’s club had more holes, in part due to injuries, opportunity is again still likely
splitting time last season with Minnesota and the Los Angeles Dodgers. He also previously pitched for San Francisco, San Diego and Pittsburgh.
Latin operations consolidated The Mariners announced plans to consolidate their Latin American operations at their new academy near Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. General manager Jack Zduriencik said the club would “continue to be heavily invested in our scouting efforts throughout Latin America, and particularly in Venezuela, where we have ... experienced much success.” While the move takes advantage of the organization’s new Dominican facility, which can house up to 80 players, it also represents a response to Venezuela’s deteriorating social conditions. The decision also means the Mariners will no longer field a club in the Venezuelan Summer League. The organization will instead field two clubs in the Dominican Summer League. “Our plan all along has been to centralize our efforts,” Zduriencik said. “By bringing our operation under one umbrella, we will be much more efficient and effective in the development of young players.”
to beckon. For someone. Here are 11 possibilities (in alphabetical order). None are likely to break camp with the big-league club, but an informal canvassing of club officials, along with a handful of rival scouts, provides some early impressions:
■ Catcher John Hicks: Long a good catch-and-throw receiver, he shows increasing potential at the plate since adopting a line-drive approach to center-right field. His defensive skills are already big-league ready, which positions him as a recall candidate if injuries thin the big-league roster. Could make a real push in 2016. ■ Left-handed pitcher Danny Hultzen: Major shoulder injuries are the biggest bugaboo these days for pitchers, but he shows signs of regaining the form that made him the No. 2 overall pick in the 2011 draft. His innings will be limited this season. McClendon openly acknowledges Hultzen is being pointed toward 2016 but, if he responds as hoped, he could be a strong contender for future rotations. ■ Outfielder James Jones: The speed plays as a plus skill, and the Mariners believe he can play all three outfield spots. That likely positions him as the first recall candidate if needs for an outfielder arise at the big-league level. Austin Jackson will be a free agent in the coming off-season. If Jones shows some much-needed improvement in his plate discipline, he figures to gain strong consideration as the starting center fielder in 2016. ■ Infielder/outfielder Pat Kivlehan: The word that keeps coming from club personnel is “ballplayer.” He seemingly lacks any single dazzling skill, but Kivlehan makes regular contact and shows an instinctive feel on the field. It will be interesting to see whether the Mariners try to anchor Kivlehan at one position or continue to shift him between the infield and outfield corners. He figures to open at Tacoma. ■ Outfielder Jordy Lara: It remains a legitimate question to wonder whether his breakout 2014 stemmed from spending much of the summer in the hitters’ paradise of Hi-A High Desert. But those questions are quieter now. Lara passes the eye test for many observers, although his lack of speed and range means he likely profiles as a first baseman/DH.
Cano’s return Second baseman Robinson Cano is expected to return Friday from the Dominican Republic, where he is attending funeral services for his grandfather. Cano left camp following last Saturday’s game. McClendon said Cano will likely return to the lineup for Saturday’s game against Arizona at Salt River Fields in Scottsdale.
Pitching plans Reliever Tom Wilhelmsen is scheduled to make his spring debut by pitching one inning Wednesday against Colorado at Peoria Stadium. Wilhelmsen has been slowed this spring due to back soreness. ■ Felix Hernandez is scheduled for two innings Tuesday when he makes his spring debut against the Rockies at Salt River Fields. Plans call for Roenis Elias to follow Hernandez and work three innings. ■ Erasmo Ramirez will start Wednesday’s game. Danny Hultzen is also slotted to pitch that day against the Rockies along with Wilhelmsen. It will be Hultzen’s first game action since Sept. 1, 2013. ■ Tentative starters for the rest of the week: Jordan Pries on Thursday against Oakland in Mesa; J.A. Happ on Friday against Milwaukee in Peoria; and Taijuan Walker on Saturday against Arizona at Salt River Fields.
That means he must continue to hit. Look for him to start at Jackson. ■ Catcher Tyler Marlette: Club officials love his bat, particularly his quick hands, but acknowledge his defense is playing catch-up. Look for that to be an emphasis this year in his development. Marlette seems likely to open the season at Jackson, but he could make the jump later to Tacoma if the opportunity presents itself. ■ Infielder Ketel Marte: Has had some rough moments — five errors in a three-game span — but club officials see this as a learning experience for a talented 21-year-old middle infielder. Marte could be ready to make a strong push next season for a roster spot. Almost certain to spend this summer with the Rainiers. ■ First baseman Jesus Montero: The early returns on his career-reconstruction project are encouraging — the guy lost 45 pounds over the winter — but still incomplete. “Look,” one rival scout said, “the potential is still there. He’s always going to be a below-average runner and his defensive ceiling is borderline average. But he’s got big-time, right-handed thump. Those guys are hard to find.” ■ Outfielder Julio Morban: Want to dream a little? Squint your eyes a bit and Morban can make you recall a young Tony Gwynn at the plate. Now, he’s not Gwynn. Who is? But when healthy, Morban has always hit. And that’s the issue: Can he stay healthy? Morban has played just 363 games in six years. He closed last season at Tacoma; so he figures to be there again when this season begins. ■ Infielder D.J. Peterson: His spring got off to a bang with he homered in his first at-bat. He led the organization a year ago by hitting 31 homers in 123 games at High Desert and Jackson. Peterson figures to shift increasingly from third base to first base — hey, Kyle Seager isn’t going anywhere. Could start at Jackson, but it will be disappointing if he’s not in Tacoma at some point. ■ Outfielder Stefen Romero: Played 72 games last season in the big leagues but failed to seize the opportunity. Now, he’s almost certain to head to Tacoma, where he spent parts of the last two seasons. Club officials still like his potential: He batted .358 with 12 homers and 36 RBI last season in 36 games for the Rainiers. A one-time second baseman, he shifted two years ago the outfield. Don’t be surprised to see him at first.

T—2:21. A—6,589 (12,339).
The facts
Ketel Marte opened the ninth inning with a triple to right against Cleveland reliever Nick Maronde. Marte scored easily when D.J. Peterson followed with drive to deep right for a sacrifice fly. The Mariners (4-3) blew a 3-0 lead before Marte and Peterson combined for a walk-off victory. Taijuan Walker opened the day dialing up a second straight dominant start when he limited the Indians to one single in three innings while striking out four. “I feel confident,” said Walker, who opened the spring with two scoreless innings against San Diego. “I’m healthy and strong.”
Play of the game
Walker made a barehanded catch on a soft looper by Lonnie Chisenhall in the second inning. Walker retreated to his right, reached up and speared the ball. “He made that, like, way too easy,” shortstop Brad Miller said. “He’s so athletic. Going back, down the mound, away ... and he was nasty today, too. That kid, is he 21 yet? Geez ...” Walker followed his acrobatic grab by pouncing off the mound to field David Murphy’s dying chop to the third-base side. Walker set himself and threw to first for the inning’s final out.
Plus
Miller and Chris Taylor each had two hits. Miller had a pair of homers, while Taylor had a single and a double. ... Mike Zunino also homered and is 3-for-6. ... Lefty Tyler Olson struck out the side in the fourth (Jason Kipnis, Yan Gomes and Michael Brantley). Olson has retired all nine batters he’s faced this season.
Minus Right fielder Seth Smith is 0-for-8 after going hitless in three at-bats with two strikeouts ... Carson Smith gave up his first runs as a Mariner when he yielded Yan Gomes’ two-run double in the sixth. Smith had 81⁄3 scoreless innings last spring, another 81⁄3 scoreless innings last September after arriving from Tacoma and two scoreless innings earlier this spring. ... Justin Ruggiano, Kyle Seager, Logan Morrison and Dustin Ackley were also 0-for-3.
Job battles Miller is 4-for-6 in three games after his two homers. ... Taylor, the other shortstop candidate, had a single and a double in his two at-bats and is 5-for-11. ... Lefty reliever Lucas Luetge gave up a game-tying leadoff homer in the seventh to Brandon Moss in a left-on-left matchup. ... David Rollins, another lefty relief candidate, pitched a one-two-three fifth inning.
Extra innings
Robinson Cano’s absence provided the opportunity for the two shortstop contestants, Miller and Taylor, to play at the same time. Taylor played second and started a slick second-short-first double play in the first inning. ... The Mariners had just six hits, but five were for extra bases: three homers, one triple and one double.
Up next
Felix Hernandez makes his spring debut Tuesday when the Mariners swing around the top of the 101 to reach Salt River Fields for a 1:10 p.m. game against Colorado in Scottsdale. Hernandez is scheduled for two innings. Lefty Roenis Elias is slotted to follow Hernandez in a piggyback start and work three innings. Bob Dutton, The News Tribune

Report: Seahawks to sign ex-Eagles’ corner Williams By John Boyle Herald Writer
With Byron Maxwell headed to Philadelphia and Jeremy Lane recovering from two serious injuries, it's no secret that the Seahawks are in the market for cornerbacks. And after signing Will Blackmon earlier Monday, they appear to be adding veteran corner Cary Williams as well. Williams, who visited the Seahawks last week, chose Seattle over the New York Jets, Tennessee and one of his former teams, the Baltimore Ravens, according to Aaron Wilson of the National Football Post. Williams, 30, started every game for Philadelphia over the past two season after joining the Eagles as a free agent in 2013. He was released earlier this offseason in a salary cap saving move, a decision that, as it turned out, helped the Eagles replace him with Maxwell. Blackmon was a victim of the Seahawks’ incredible cornerback depth in 2013, and as a result was cut at the end of training camp. Now the 30-year-old Blackmon has re-signed

Gonzaga kept its defensive pressure on and scored 10 points off fast breaks while taking the 20-point lead. “That was easily the most fun we’ve had in a game this year,” said Wesley, who added four steals and three assists. “Just the energy we had, and the crowd was great. From the players in the game to the players on the bench,

and he has the supporting cast to really make it difficult to play against.” Everett and Portland square off for the final time this season Wednesday at Xfinity Arena in a game that has huge implications for the U.S. Division title. The Tips are currently in first place, a position Everett has held almost the entire season. However, Portland is in hot pursuit, having closed within four points by going 16-1-2-0 in its past 19 games, and the Winterhawks have two games in hand. Bjorkstrand has been the primary dynamo in Portland’s power surge. The third-year player has been excellent for the Winterhawks since the moment he stepped in the league. This is his second straight 50-goal season, making him the first player with backto-back 50-goal seasons since Brandon’s Eric Fehr in 2003-04 and 2004-05. His 50th, 51st and 52nd goals came in his 50th game, making him part of the exclusive 50-50 club of players who reached 50 goals in 50 games — Medicine Hat’s Emerson Etem was the last player to accomplish the feat in 2011-12, and prior to that it hadn’t been done since Swift Current’s Layne Ulmer achieved the mark in 2000-01. As well as Bjorkstrand has played all season long, he’s been even better of late. Bjorkstrand had a streak of scoring goals in 12 straight games ended during Saturday’s 6-2 victory over Tri-City. The 12-game streak snapped Portland’s franchise
with Seattle to bolster depth at the position. Blackmon, who spent the past two seasons in Jacksonville, appearing in 23 games, starting 12, was released by the Jaguars last month. Bringing him back makes a lot of sense for Seattle, which is expected to lose Maxwell to Philadelphia as soon as free agents can officially sign with new teams on Tuesday, and which could be without Lane for some or all of the 2015 season, the result of a broken arm and torn ACL he sustained in the Super Bowl. The 6-foot, 204-pound Blackmon was drafted by Green Bay in the fourthround of the 2006 draft, so Seahawks general manager John Schneider has a background him going back to their time together with the Packers. Blackmon also has experience as a returner, which could prove useful for a team that never settled on permanent return solutions last year. The Seahawks also re-signed linebacker Mike Morgan, who was a restricted free agent. Morgan, who played for Pete Carroll at USC,
signed with Seattle as an undrafted free agent in 2011, and has appeared in 53 games, starting one, and has been a key contributor on special teams during his time in Seattle. The Seahawks also confirmed the signing of tight end Anthony McCoy, which was first reported over the weekend. McCoy, a sixth-round pick in 2010, appeared in 34 games with Seattle, starting 14, but then missed each of the past two seasons with Achilles injuries. He has 31 career receptions for 437 yards and three touchdowns. The Seahawks also announced they tendered qualifying contracts to exclusive-rights free-agent wide receiver Ricardo Lockette and exclusiverights free-agent defensive back DeShawn Shead. The Seahawks did not tender a contract to wide receiver and punt returner Bryan Walters, making him unrestricted free agent Tuesday. Also on Tuesday night, there were reports free-agent guard James Carpenter, a former firstround draft pick of the Seahawks, will sign with the New York Jets.
everyone was engaged. That’s what we want.” Fourth-seeded Pepperdine (18-13) stayed even with the Zags for most of the first half before finally slowing down. The Waves’ best player, Stacy Davis, scored 15 points but shot just 5 for 15. Jeremy Major had 12 points. “It starts with the defensive end,” Wesley said. “We weren’t really ourselves in the first half, but we came out in the second half and locked in defensively. We were able to get steals and push the ball in
transition and get baskets. When we do that, that’s when we’re playing our best basketball.” Afterward, Few noted the importance of a 30-win season, which the Bulldogs accomplished Saturday night in an 81-72 quarterfinal win over San Francisco. “If you hit 30 in college basketball, that’s one hell of an accomplishment,” he said. “I don’t care if it’s Kentucky or Duke or Carolina or anywhere. Thirty is 30, and these guys have hit it two of the last three years.”
record of 11 (by Tony Currie in 1976-77) that stood for nearly 40 years, and it was the longest in the league since Swift Current’s Jeremy Williams scored goals in 13 straight games in November-December of 2003. Bjorkstrand scored 21 goals during his 12-game streak, scoring multiple goals in half of those games. Even when he had his streak snapped Saturday he still managed to dish out two assists. Portland coach Jamie Kompon said Bjorkstrand has elevated his play since helping Denmark win its first ever game at the World Junior Hockey Championships over the holidays. “I don’t think there’s an adjective or superlative I could use to describe Oliver’s game,” Kompon said. “One thing I will say is that he’s a better person than he is a player. He cares so much about the team. You can look at his numbers, but he puts the team before himself. “He finds a way every time,” Kompon continued. “I don’t think I can recall a player ever having the kind of impact on a string of games that he’s had. When he has the puck you know something’s going to happen. He’s on an amazing roll and he’s gaining more and more confidence each and every day.” If Everett wants to win Wednesday’s game, the Tips have the difficult task of trying to figure out how to slow Bjorkstrand down. “I think you have to take away as much time and space as you can,” Sonne said. “I think you have to work really hard, and I think you have to limit turnovers at both blue lines, both our offensive blue line and defensive
blue line. “He’s going to be a huge factor (Wednesday),” Sonne added. “He’s one of their best players, if not their best player. He’s one of the best players in the league, so he’s going to be a pretty big factor, I’m sure.” And if the Tips want to maintain the advantage in the race for the division banner, they’re going to have to figure out how to keep Bjorkstrand a small factor instead of a big one.

Ohlsen, Edwards earn New Fat-Melting Pill postseason accolades Could “Wall Street Analysts Praise New Breakthrough”
Herald news services
SEATTLE — Seattle Pacific University point guard Suzanna Ohlsen has been named the NCAA Division II Academic AllAmerica Player of the Year by the College Sports Information Directors of America. Ohlsen, a senior from Monroe, has a 4.0 grade-point average as a biochemistry major and already has been accepted into the University of Washington’s pharmacy program. This is her second Academic All-America award. She made the CoSIDA third team last season. In addition to her work in the classroom, Ohlsen leads the No. 19-ranked Falcons in scoring at 18.0 points per game, assists at 3.9, and field-goal shooting at 51 percent. She is the program’s all-time leader in accuracy at the free-throw line at better than 88 percent. “She’s exceptionally gifted — but she’s also exceptionally organized,” SPU head coach Julie Heisey said of Ohlsen. “For her to have the schedule she has had and have a 4.0 GPA and be one of the best basketball players in the country is pretty amazing.” On Dec. 4, Ohlsen scored her 1,000th career point in a 75-47 victory over Alaska Fairbanks. Later in the season, she cracked SPU’s top 10 list for career scoring.
“It’s an absolute honor to have received this award. I feel totally humbled, and it’s such a cool experience,” Ohlsen said. “It has been a long four years, but it has been an absolutely amazing ride.” The Falcons (21-6) play Humboldt State in Anchorage, Alaska, on Friday in the first round of the NCAA Division II West Regional.
Lynnwood’s Edwards honored Freshman Jasmin Edwards of Central Washington University, a 2014 graduate of Lynnwood High School, has been named Freshman of the Year in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference. She also was a second-team All-GNAC selection. Edwards, the Wildcats’ starting point guard, was the team’s second-leading scorer at 12.2 points a game and led the Wildcats in assists with a 4.6 average, ranking fourth in the conference. She also led CWU in minutes per game at 36.3. Wildcats coach Jeff Harada called the freshman-of-the-year award “a great honor for Jasmin. Her consistency to impact the game on both ends of the floor the way she does in her first year in a league with so many talented point guards and other freshmen, shows the respect she has earned from the coaches in the conference.” Central Washington closed its season Thursday with a 51-40 loss to Western Washington in the first round of the GNAC tournament in Billings, Montana.

conference season). We’re a lot less experienced in the field (than a year ago), so we may take it on the chin early in conference play. But if we can survive those first few weeks of conference play ... then hopefully at the end we’ll be where we were last spring.” Among Washington’s returning players are a few from Snohomish County, including starting third baseman Alex Schmidt from Mukilteo’s Kamiak High School and top reliever Brandon Choate from Mountlake Terrace High School. Both are seniors, and both will be counted on both to provide leadership and production. “(Schmidt) has been in the middle of our batting order since Day 1 while playing third base,” Meggs said. Though Schmidt has started slowly this season, batting .189 (albeit with a .434 slugging percentage) in the team’s first 16 games, “he has all the tools you’d look for at that position as far as being able to drive in runs and throw the ball across the diamond.” Choate is one of Washington’s top relievers, and

He likes to compete, and he’s absolutely a team guy who will do anything in any role to help us,” Meggs said of Choate, who is 1-1 with a 1.12 ERA and two saves this season. Last season’s trip to the postseason was the first in a decade for Washington, and that experience “was really special,” Choate said. “We did a lot more than anybody expected. We almost made it to our ultimate goal, which is (the College World Series in) Omaha ... and getting that close is really driving us this year.” Repeating last season’s success is no sure thing, “but I definitely think we’re capable of doing it,” Schmidt said. “But we’re always talking about how we’re not trying to be the same team we were last year. We play the game differently. I still think we can get to that type of level of competitiveness and get that far again, if not further, but it’s going to be a different path for us than last year.” Both Choate and Schmidt feel blessed to be part of a resurgent

Washington program, and to play their final two seasons in the school’s beautiful new stadium. With views of nearby Lake Washington and Mount Rainier in the distance, “it’s eye-opening every time you run out there,” Choate said. “The Washington experience for me is pretty much like a dream come true,” Schmidt added. “I get to play close to home, so my family shows up for most of my games. And the whole atmosphere with the school, the baseball program and the stadium is just electric.” Meggs, meanwhile, says what happened last year has carried over in terms of recruiting, regional recognition and momentum for the current season. “Winning attracts winners,” he pointed out. “The fact that we were only four wins away from the College World Series means a lot to people who follow college baseball in the Northwest. And getting our stadium done makes a statement that we not only care about baseball, but that we want to get to the College World Series as badly as they do.” Put it all together, he said, “and it puts us in position to take that next step.”
Oregon’s Young, Altman win Pac-12 honors Herald news services SAN FRANCISCO — Oregon’s Joseph Young has been named the Pac12 player of the year and Ducks coach Dana Altman has been named coach of the year. Arizona’s Stanley Johnson was the freshman of the year, Oregon State’s Gary Payton II the defensive player and Washington State’s Josh Hawkinson, who played at Shorewood High School, was the most
improved player. Young averaged 19.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.7 assists, leading Oregon to 13 conference wins and the Pac-12 Tournament’s second seed. Payton’s 3.1 steals rank third nationally. After barely playing as a freshman, Hawkinson, a 6-10, 245-pound sophomore forward, averaged 14.7 points and 10.8 rebounds. His 19 double-doubles rank fifth nationally.
Arizona, which won the Pac-12 regular-season title, was the only team with more than one player on the Pac-12 first team, with Johnson, point guard T.J. McConnell and forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson earning honors.

That is, until recently when a small Colorado nutraceutical company developed the unbelievable… a new pill, that lets you drop dramatic amounts of weight — apparently without much effort at all!
• Fool your body into burning carbs as energy – NOT storing them as fat • Fool your body into BURNING Stored FAT through Thermogenesis and lipolysis • Fool your body into feeling full – the ultimate appetite suppressant • Enable your body to PRESERVE Lean, Healthy MUSCLE
Meet the Pill that Disintegrates Fat Cells …While You Sit Still.
• Increase energy and mental clarity almost immediately – guaranteed
Shred360™ originally shook up the fitness industry because of the way it DOUBLES your fat-burning potential and made fitness models “camera ready” in dramatically less time.
And unlike highly ineffective, slickly marketed “diet supplements” (that are usually glorified caffeine pills) – Shred360™ (originally formulated for top athletes) will:
Shred360™ allows ANYONE, not just fitness professionals, to LOSE INTENSE AMOUNTS OF FAT — without grueling workouts or tasteless diet foods. It works by first breaking apart, then disintegrating your stubborn fat cells – so you drop pounds and inches even while you SLEEP! And best of all, Shred360™ was just released to the general public. That means you can experience unprecedented weight loss too.
• NEVER make you jittery
Two Servings Replace Hours of Grueling Workouts. ACCELERATE the Speed of Your Metabolism by up to an Astounding 43%! By creating a “Sedentary Cellular Workout” (nearly doubling the speed of your metabolism) Shred360™’s formula actually fools your body into thinking that you are lifting weights and running hard… increasing your metabolic rate by 43% and BURNING FAT FAST...
• NEVER make your heart race • NEVER leave you feeling hungry Shred360™’s formula includes well documented Green Tea, Vitamins B6 & B12, Green Coffee and Raspberry Ketones, among others. Together, they are unconditionally guaranteed to make every surplus bit of your unwanted fat disappear - effortlessly - without starvation diets and painful exercise… while at the same time preserving the lean healthy muscle that your body needs.
Fitness Professionals Praise The Fat Burning Power of Shred360™ “Shred360™ Is the Best of the Best. In all my years of being a Fitness Professional, I’ve never recommended a fat-burner because almost all fat burners fall short… but I was so impressed with the
eliminate fat from the body) predict traditional weight loss companies will be obsolete in the next 4-years. Let’s be honest. For most of us, the absolute ease of losing fat with Shred360™ is much more important than the science of “how it works”. As one Wall Street Investor put it, “By using Shred360™ - you can eat like a normal person, skip the gym, and lose the fat you want while you sleep – so who in their right mind would ever use a company like Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers? The answer, clearly, is no one.” No more tasteless “diet frozen meals”, no more prepackaged “food”, no more time consuming trips to the gym, and no more clubs to join - PLUS Shred360™ nearly doubles your metabolism and burns fat while you SLEEP – making it the most important breakthrough in weight loss history… and that has mainstream companies worried…
Produced Under Highly Controlled Environmental Conditions In Small Batches, So Supplies Are Very Limited Shred360™ was originally developed for Top Fitness Professionals (a very small market) and was never meant to be the all-around fat burner that it, thankfully, turned out to be. Because of this, Shred360™ is produced under highly controlled conditions, in one of America’s Top Certified Supplement manufacturing facilities, in very small batches… making supplies quite limited. This production method guarantees that Shred360™ is always pure, always safe, and always effective. Shred360™ truly is a “Professional Grade” supplement.
Special Opportunity for Our Readers – Small Sample of Shred360™ Made Available with No-Questions-Asked 365-Day Guarantee!
SIXTEEN Highly Refined Ingredients Vaporize Fat Without Effort Unlike Anything Ever Released! Shred360™ is VERY Different from anything you’ve seen. Its proprietary blend of SIXTEEN potent ingredients, are Scientifically PROVEN to: • Evaporate Fat by Speeding Your Metabolism by an Astonishing 43%
science, the ingredients, AND the personal results of this product - I contacted the company directly to share my excitement.” Shaun Hadsall – Fitness Trainer, creator of the “4-Cycle Fat Loss” system
Analysts Think Shred360™ Could put Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers Out of Business by 2018 Analysts (who have studied Shred360™’s ability to isolate, breakup and
As the Health and Fitness Editor, I am happy to say that I have been able to reserve a limited supply of GUARANTEED TO WORK Shred360™ - for 100 of our readers (I wish it could have been more – but their supplies are very limited).
