ACLU takes aim at Everett If the city adopts an anti-panhandling ordinance, it could face a lawsuit, the organization warns in a letter. By Chris Winters Herald Writer

EVERETT — The American Civil Liberties Union of Washington on Wednesday sent a letter to Mayor Ray Stephanson and the Everett City Council,

urging them to not adopt an anti-panhandling ordinance, implying the city could face a lawsuit if it did. “Locally and nationally, the ACLU has successfully challenged ordinances containing provisions similar to, or

even less restrictive than, the anti-solicitation provisions” contained in the proposed ordinance, wrote Jennifer Shaw, the deputy director of the ACLU of Washington. The ordinance is one of three measures the city is considering to combat chronic problems with street nuisances associated with the homeless population. The issue was on the City

Council’s agenda Wednesday night. The council chambers were filled and many people came prepared to address the ordinance. The council did not make a decision by press time, however. The ordinance would prohibit panhandling or otherwise See ACLU, Page A8

MALTBY — It’s late in the evening and four musicians are ripping it up on the stage of the old Grange hall. Call it progressive bluegrass, newgrass or jamgrass, their music makes people in the crowd want to dance, clap and holler. Ruben Taylor, of Granite Falls, on mandolin, guitarist Nick Dumas, of Brier, bassist Pete Goodall, of Clearview, and Clayton Hess, of Woodinville, on banjo take turns with intricate, fast solo improvisations.

With its roots in Appalachia among people of Irish, Scottish and British ancestry, bluegrass was often gospel-based and tinged with more than a little country twang. In the past century, as

All were safely recovered, however, after the owner — who knows the suspects — checked on them and found an open gate and fresh tire tracks.

ARLINGTON — Eight stolen horses were saved from slaughter Tuesday after they had been hauled to a collection site for a Canadian meat-packing plant. Their owner went to check on them on property where they were being boarded in the 16000 block of Grant Road east of Arlington. When the owner arrived, the gate was open and she found ruts from fresh tire tracks. There were no signs of the horses. The owner knows the suspects — 64, 59 and 56, officials said. No arrests have been made. It will be up to her to decide whether to press charges, Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. The woman and one of the suspects reportedly had a squabble that somehow involves the horses. The woman reported her horses were missing to the sheriff ’s office Tuesday afternoon. She tracked them to the Florence Packing Co. grounds near Stanwood. It operated as a slaughterhouse until 1992 and now exports horses to Canada. One of the people accused of stealing the horses went through an intermediary to supply the horses to the company, Ireton said. Florence Packing owner Wayne Lindahl said the horses arrived around 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Later in the day, the horses’ owner called Lindahl to ask if anyone brought him eight head of horses. She went on to describe them in accurate detail. Lindahl told her he had them and would keep them for her. They made arrangements for their return. “I don’t know what happened,” he said. “I don’t know the whole story.” Deputies are convinced that neither the middleman nor Lindahl were aware the horses had been taken against the woman’s will, Ireton said. The horses reportedly were sold as a group for $2,200, Ireton said. There are no horse slaughter facilities legally operating in the United States. The last were closed in 2007. For now, the federal government is not funding inspectors for such operations. Still, thousands of horses are exported for slaughter each year at plants in Canada and Mexico. The Snohomish County Council two years ago banned killing horses locally as a human food source. The law prohibits slaughtering

HOUSTON — A Houston hospital says a woman has delivered five girls in what it believes is the first set of all-female quintuplets born in the U.S. The Woman’s Hospital of Texas say Danielle Busby had

her babies by cesarean section April 8. Doctors say the children, born premature at 28 weeks, were doing well Wednesday. Dr. Jayne Finkowski-Rivera says the babies are only requiring modest help breathing. Busby, her husband, Adam, and her eldest daughter, Blayke,

welcomed Olivia Marie, Ava Lane, Hazel Grace, Parker Kate and Riley Paige. Their birth weights ranged from 2 pounds to 2 pounds 6 ounces. Danielle Busby says she never thought she would have six kids — much less six girls. She had intrauterine insemination for both pregnancies.

Darrington, a proud Tarheel town, will celebrate its 39th Bluegrass Festival in July with national headliners on the program. More centrally located in the region, Maltby’s monthly bluegrass jam is arguably the best attended in the state. People show up at 2 p.m. on those first Saturdays and double park in the lot surrounding the community club. They haul in musical instruments, sound equipment and food for the potluck supper. Some won’t leave until nearly midnight. On the afternoon of April 4, a group including Taylor, Dumas and Goodall sat outside near the front door for a prolonged warmup jam session. Inside, a big circle of fiddle, guitar and banjo players went through standards such as “Will the Circle Be Unbroken” and “I’ll Fly Away.” Out back, a group of banjo players dueled. Other people played music in the kitchen, the main closet and the hall by the restrooms. Dumas, 24, has been

part of the Maltby bluegrass scene for more than half his life. He plays guitar, mandolin, fiddle and sings lead and harmony. Dumas performed first with his songwriter mother and dobro-playing grandfather in the Three Generations, then was part of Northern Departure, which garnered regional attention for its energetic style. Now he plays with North Country Bluegrass, a mostly younger group that will perform this summer at the Darrington festival. “I know there was a bluegrass revival in the 1970s, when the festival

in Darrington got started,” Dumas said. “But we’re in the midst of another revival. I’d never seen so many young people (as) at last year’s bluegrass festival.” Dumas makes it to most of the Maltby jam sessions. He loves the older people — “my school of bluegrass teachers” — and their hospitality. “For me it’s like church,” said the bass player Goodall, who hosts the Bluegrass Ramble at noon Sundays on radio station KBCS (91.3 FM).

Former CO at Everett navy base acquitted Capt. James Duke Jr. had been charged with sexual assault and reassigned to Naval Base Kitsap. By Rikki King Herald Writer

EVERETT — The former commanding officer of Naval Station Everett has been acquitted in military court of accusations that he sexually assaulted his ex-girlfriend, officials said this week. Capt. James Duke Jr. was “cleared of all wrongdoing and proven innocent in open court,”

his Everett attorney, Anna Goykhman, said Wednesday. “I was confident we would prevail in trial and prove that he was wrongfully accused and that is exactly what happened.” Duke won’t be returning to the Everett base, a Navy spokesman said. Duke, now 50, was reassigned last fall to Navy Region Northwest at Naval Base Kitsap

near Silverdale when the military began investigating the allegations. Cmdr. Jeff Caulk temporarily assumed Duke’s duties in Everett. Caulk remains the acting commanding officer, Everett base spokeswoman Kristin Ching said Wednesday. Duke still is assigned to the base in Kitsap County, Navy spokesman Chris Haley said. His court case ended in late February. Seven naval officers who heard the case delivered the acquittal, Haley said. It was a

military criminal court-martial, somewhat similar to a civilian grand jury proceeding. Duke was living in Lake Stevens in early 2014 when his then-girlfriend told local police that he sexually assaulted her after she turned down his request for sex. Duke said he was trying to end the relationship when the accusation came forward. Goykhman on Wednesday said the woman’s claim was “a vicious attempt by a rejected girlfriend to harm the career and life of a most decent, honorable and

impeccably honest man.” Before the case went to military court, Lake Stevens detectives conducted an investigation, and Snohomish County prosecutors declined to file charges. Duke had assumed command at Naval Station Everett in July 2013. In July 2014, he was involved in an unrelated domestic disturbance with an Arlington woman near Lake Stevens. The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office investigated that case but did not find evidence that a crime occurred.

Les Buntting strolls on Edgewater Beach just north of downtown Mukilteo with his Jack Russell terrier, Gordy, on Wednesday. “I’ve been coming down here to this beach for 25 years,” Buntting said. “On a day like today, it really makes you love being in the Northwest.”

New road leads back to the beach By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

MUKILTEO — Access to Edgewater Beach, which has been closed since December, resumed this week with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Wednesday. The beach is on the former U.S. Air Force tank property. “We’ve been working since 1999 to get the tank farm property turned over to the local community,” Lisa Lefeber, a spokeswoman for the Port of Everett, said before the event. The Mukilteo City Council approved the transfer of seven acres in and around the former tank farm from the port to the city earlier this year.

It’s a good milestone to be able to get people back to that waterfront. — Lisa Lefeber, Port of Everett spokeswoman

Access to Edgewater Beach was closed while the port built a road to provide access both to the beach and to the Mount Baker terminal by port employees, Lefeber said. The $2 million road project included landscaping, installation of utilities and an interpretive sign about the

aerospace industry next to the Mount Baker Terminal, the port’s aerospace facility. “That road is a critical piece in providing public access to the site” for vehicles and pedestrians, she said. The port has been working since 2005 to get legal public access to the beach. “It’s really

exciting to see the property being accessible to be used by the Mukilteo community,” Lefeber said. “It’s a good milestone to be able to get people back to that waterfront.” The port built a small parking lot and added 1,100 linear feet of beach to the property in 2005 as part of the construction of the Mount Baker Terminal, which opened in 2008. Due to the Air Force’s long use of the land, the newly built road provides the first public access through the tank farm property in 75 years, Lefeber said.

House bill puts pot’s future in voters’ hands

here’s a good chance marijuana will be in front of voters again this fall. This time, though, the decision will be whether to keep the industry out, not whether to let it in.

Snohomish County has launched a new initiative to replace and repair aging septic systems by providing homeowners with convenient financing options. The county launched its Savvy Septic program earlier this month. The three-year pilot program offers loans, grants and rebates for work to make septic systems cleaner, safer and better-functioning. “Every homeowner that participates is helping invest in clean water,” said Lisa Dulude, who manages energy and environmental sustainability projects for the county. Dulude called the program “a one-stop-shop for financing options, incentives and education.” The county teamed up with Puget Sound Cooperative Credit Union to offer low-interest loans and anticipates issuing more than 200. The program also offers up to $200 in maintenance rebates for homeowners plus a limited number of grants to assist low-income homeowners with septic systems. Later this year, people will be able to attend free maintenance workshops to learn about best practices for keeping up their systems. County staff estimate that about 75 percent of the 80,000 septic systems here are more than 25 years old. Many are near lakes, rivers, streams and marine waters. A $292,659 grant from the state Department of Ecology helped make the new septic program possible. The county’s Surface Water Management Division also contributed nearly $300,000 in matching funds.

Cornfield: One big marijuana issue, many small battles From Page A3

limiting the industry in some fashion. State lawmakers began the 2015 legislative session determined to address the rejection of marijuana businesses. Many lawmakers did not support Initiative 502 but now want to ensure that those getting into the business are not prevented from doing so. Plus, this is a potential money-maker for the state. Because of that, there’s general agreement in the House and Senate that

the state should share a small piece of marijuana tax revenue with cities and counties — but only if they allow approved marijuana businesses in their jurisdictions. They hope such a financial incentive will encourage communities to drop their bans. But House members didn’t feel that’s enough to change behavior, so in HB 2136, they wipe out the bans and moratoriums and offer two paths to reimpose them via the ballot. Under one scenario, a voter can submit a petition

signed by at least 30 percent of the registered voters of a community to the elected leaders of that city or county. The other is for members of a city council or county council to put it on the ballot. A simple majority is required to pass it. And a voter-approved ban cannot be altered or repealed for two years under the House bill. These elements of preemption and voting face an uncertain future in the Senate. Senators left them out of a similar bill they considered earlier in the

session. Should they emerge, it could create some interesting ballot dynamics. One might expect leaders of cities with bans, such as Marysville, Snohomish and Mill Creek, to try to preserve them. That could force this year’s candidates for city and county offices, including county executive, to choose sides, knowing their decision could enrage enough voters to hurt them in an election. On Monday, the Legislature added another twist. A bill passed by the Senate and heading to the

The landfill, on the 4300 block of 108th Street SE outside of Everett city limits, has been a source of anxiety since the 1980s, when underground fires smoldered for years. Magnesium and old car parts are thought to have contributed to the fires, but no one knows for sure what’s underground.

FERNDALE — A cougar killed a dairy cow in Whatcom County over the weekend. The Bellingham Herald reported the cow was found dead Saturday with bite marks on her hide at a small dairy farm west of Ferndale. State Fish & Wildlife Sgt. Brian Fairbanks said the isolated attack is puzzling. Cougar attacks are rare in the region, but it’s very unusual to have an attack west of I-5. This is the second time in his 15 years in wildlife law enforcement that Fairbanks has seen a full-grown cow killed by a cougar. Fish & Wildlife officers will capture and relocate the animal if it sticks around.

Associated Press EUGENE, Ore. — The National Weather Service in Portland has assessed a small tornado that damaged four vehicles in Eugene as one that probably packed winds of 65 to 85 miles per hour. The tornado touched down late Tuesday afternoon in a parking lot at the Lane Community College main campus. College spokeswoman Joan Aschim said it damaged four cars but no one was hurt.

equines if a person knows “that any of the horse meat will be used for human consumption.” It applies to any horse, pony, donkey or mule. The ordinance makes it clear that nobody can be held legally responsible for selling a horse to another person who later slaughters it. That allows feed lots to continue exporting horses for slaughter elsewhere. The market for horse meat is almost entirely overseas. For many Americans, eating horse is equivalent to eating a pet. However, it’s widely consumed in parts of Europe and Asia. Even with a de facto ban on horse slaughterhouses, more than 100,000 U.S. horses are still exported each year for slaughter in Canada and Mexico. The suspects could be arrested for first-degree theft of livestock, which is a felony. It was the second time deputies have investigated a case of livestock theft this year. In November, an Arlington area woman reported that two Hampshire pigs were stolen from her property. A detective was able to track down a suspect, 40, and the pigs, which were reunited with their owner. Eric Stevick: 425-3393446; stevick@heraldnet. com.

Brain size linked to affluence The Washington Post New research that shows poor children have smaller brains than affluent children has deepened the national debate about ways to narrow the achievement gap. Neuroscientists who studied the brain scans of nearly 1,100 children and young adults nationwide from ages 3 to 20 found that the surface area of the cerebral cortex was linked to family income. They discovered that the brains of children in families that earned less than $25,000 a year had surface areas 6 percent smaller than those whose families earned $150,000 or more. The poor children also scored lower on average on a battery of cognitive tests. The region of the brain in

question handles language, memory, spatial skills and reasoning, all important to success in school and beyond. The study, published last month in Nature Neuroscience, is the largest of its kind to date. It was led by Kimberly Noble, who teaches at both Columbia University’s Teachers College and the university’s medical school. Elizabeth Sowell, of Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, was the senior author. “We’ve known for so long that poverty and lack of access to resources to enrich the developmental environment are related to poor school performance, poor test scores and fewer educational opportunities,” Sowell said. “But now we can really tie it to a physical thing in the brain. We realized that this is a big deal.”

The study is part of a new and growing body of research on children’s brain structures that has been made possible by recent advances in magnetic resonance imaging. “It’s only been in the past 20 years that we could have done this with living, developing children,” said Sowell, who published a pioneering 1999 study that found the brain is still developing past adolescence, contrary to earlier beliefs that brain growth was complete by the teen years. The research comes at a time when a majority of U.S. public school students come from low-income families and the academic achievement gap between poor and moreaffluent children is growing. Policymakers are increasingly concerned about ways to

reduce the gap, which is apparent as early as kindergarten. In another study that has been accepted for publication in Psychological Science, a team led by neuroscientist John Gabrieli of MIT found differences in the brain’s cortical thickness between low-income and higher-income teenagers. The study linked that difference for the first time to standardized test scores: 57 percent of the poor children scored proficient in math and reading tests given annually in Massachusetts, compared with 91 percent of the higherincome students. “The thing that really stands out is how powerful the economic influences are on something as fundamental as brain structure,” Gabrieli said. “It’s just very striking.”

WASHINGTON — The destruction of the USS Oklahoma came quickly. On Dec. 7, 1941, it was hit with numerous torpedoes and bombs during Japan’s fierce and shocking bombardment of Pearl Harbor, capsizing within minutes with hundreds of Marines and sailors inside. Some 429 service members were killed, and others survived to fight back from the nearby USS Maryland, which also was under attack. More than 70 years later, the USS Oklahoma remained at the center of a battle. On one side was the Navy, which last year told the families of some of those killed that it was flatly against DNA testing on the

NORWALK, Iowa — Hillary Clinton was asked by congressional investigators more than two years ago whether she had used a private email account while serving as secretary of state but the State Department declined to address the question. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., then the chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, asked the State Department about it in a December 2012 letter about officials’ use of personal email. The letter asked if Clinton “or any senior agency official ever used a personal email account to conduct official business.” The State Department responded in March 2013 but didn’t address the substance of the request.

Rubio raises $1.25 million Sen. Marco Rubio raised $1.25 million online during his first full day as a presidential candidate, a person close to the Florida Republican’s campaign said Wednesday. The first-term senator entered the race for the GOP nomination Monday evening during a rally in Miami. A day later, his campaign made an aggressive digital push for donations. It quickly paid off. The haul is as much as Rubio’s team had hoped to raise online during April, May and June, according to a person close to the campaign.

Boehner’s office confirmed Wednesday that the speaker attended the funeral services in Liberty Township, outside Cincinnati. A spokeswoman for John Boehner said: “The speaker is saddened by the death of his brother, who was cherished and loved by so many. He appreciates the prayers for the Boehner family at this time.”

A Capitol Hill police officer looks toward a gyrocopter that landed on the West Lawn of the Capitol in Washington on Wednesday.

a single-manned aircraft on the grounds of the United States Capitol or the White House.” Leary said the information was shared with Capitol Police and “a complete and thorough investigation was conducted.” Capitol Police identified the open-air aircraft, which sported the U.S. Postal Service logo and landed about half a city block from the Capitol building, as a “gyrocopter with a single occupant.” About two hours after the device had landed, police announced that a bomb squad had cleared it and nothing hazardous had been found. The authorities then moved it off the Capitol lawn. Hughes flew to Washington from the vicinity of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, which took about an hour, said Ben Montgomery, a reporter with the Tampa Bay Times. Montgomery said Hughes discussed his plan in advance with the newspaper, had meticulously plotted his flight and considered himself on a mission that was “sort of a mix of P.T.

Barnum and Paul Revere.” Hughes is 61, according to public records. House Homeland Security panel Chairman Michael McCaul, R-Texas, said the pilot landed on his own, but authorities were prepared to shoot him down if he had made it much closer to the Capitol. “Had it gotten any closer to the speaker’s balcony they have long guns to take it down, but it didn’t. It landed right in front,” McCaul said. The Federal Aviation Administration said the pilot had not been in contact with air traffic controllers and the FAA didn’t authorize him to enter restricted airspace. Witnesses said the craft approached the Capitol from the west, flying low over the National Mall and the Capitol reflecting pool across the street from the building. It barely cleared a row of trees and a statue of Gen. Ulysses Grant. John Jewell, 72, a tourist from Statesville, North Carolina, said the craft landed hard and bounced. An officer was

already there with a gun drawn. “He didn’t get out until police officers told him to get out. He had his hands up” and was quickly led away by the police, Jewell said. “They snatched him pretty fast.” Elizabeth Bevins, a tourist from Atlanta, said she was standing across the street from the Capitol when the little gyrocopter flew in around 20 or 30 feet high, and it “just sort of plopped down on the lawn.” Police with rifles yelled at the pilot not to move and told bystanders to run with their heads down, said Nora Neus, 21, a junior at the University of Virginia. “I thought it was a joke at first. My next thought was this is something really bad,” she said. The gyrocopter might qualify as what the Federal Aviation Administration calls an “ultralight” aircraft. These aircraft weigh less than 254 pounds empty and have a fuel capacity of 5 gallons or less. The FAA doesn’t certify the safety of these aircraft and their pilots are not required to have a license.

Associated Press WASHINGTON — Police arrested a Florida Postal Service worker who steered his tiny aircraft onto the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol after flying through restricted airspace around the National Mall on Wednesday. The pilot was Douglas Mark Hughes of Ruskin, Florida, who remained in custody Wednesday evening, Capitol Police said. On his website, Hughes took responsibility for the stunt and said he was delivering letters to all 535 members of Congress to draw attention to campaign finance corruption. “As I have informed the authorities, I have no violent inclinations or intent,” Hughes wrote on his website, thedemocracyclub.org. “An ultralight aircraft poses no major physical threat — it may present a political threat to graft. I hope so. There’s no need to worry — I’m just delivering the mail.” Capitol Police said Hughes could face charges of violating federal aviation laws. Airspace security rules that cover the Capitol and the District of Columbia prohibit private aircraft flights without prior coordination and permission, and violators can face civil and criminal penalties. A Senate aide said Capitol Police knew of the plan shortly before Hughes took off, and said he had previously been interviewed by the U.S. Secret Service. Secret Service spokesman Brian Leary said the agency interviewed Hughes in Florida in October 2013 after obtaining “information from a concerned citizen about an individual purporting their desire to land

commingled remains of 330 unidentified service members. On the other side were families that wanted to know when the military would return the remains of their loved ones. The Pentagon has now decided to exhume unidentified remains held at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific in Honolulu, Hawaii, do DNA testing, and return any identified remains to families that want them. Some families could decide to keep their loved ones at the national cemetery in Hawaii, but in individual plots with their own marker. Deputy Defense Secretary Robert Work said this week that the Pentagon has been “considering the complexities of a

decision to disinter unknowns buried as groups where the remains are commingled.” The decision is sensitive, but Work made the case that recent advances in forensic science and technology and the help of families providing genealogical information has tipped the scales in favor of exhuming the commingled remains of those who died on the Oklahoma. “Analysis of all available evidence indicates that most Oklahoma crew members could be identified individually if the caskets associated with the ship were disinterred,” Work wrote. “I thereby direct the Defense Department to coordinate with the Department of Veterans Affairs for the disinterment

and individual identification, to the extent practical, of all unknown associated with the Oklahoma in the next five years.” Work’s decision extends beyond the Oklahoma. He is establishing a broader directive that applies to all unknown military remains buried in national cemeteries from which exhumations are done to identify fallen service members. The new policy does not apply to those whose remains are entombed in Navy vessels like the USS Arizona, which exploded and sank during the attack on Pearl Harbor, killing 1,177 officers and crewmen. The ship is the final resting place for 1,102 of them.

A Navy lieutenant commander is the eighth person to plead guilty in a bribery scandal involving the exchange of classified information with a contractor that provided hotel stays, cash and prostitutes. Todd Dale Malaki admitted Wednesday in federal court in San Diego that he accepted gifts from Singapore-based contractor Glenn Defense Marine Asia Ltd. starting in 2006 with a room at the Grand Hyatt Singapore. The officer, 44, twice accepted envelopes with Singapore dollars equivalent to $1,500 and the services of a prostitute after visiting a karaoke club in Malaysia.

Vaccination proposal falters A California vaccination bill that has generated intense debates pitting personal rights against public health stalled in the state Senate on Wednesday, with lawmakers saying it could deprive unvaccinated children of an adequate education by barring them from schools. The measure would prevent parents from seeking vaccine exemptions that allow students to attend classes because of religious or personal beliefs, joining California with only Mississippi and West Virginia in such strict requirements. Unvaccinated children would have to be homeschooled.

Outbreak of measles slows A measles outbreak that began at Disneyland and reignited debate about vaccinations is nearing an end. The outbreak will be declared over in California on Friday if no new cases pop up, according to the state Department of Public Health. Disease investigators worked for months to contain the highly contagious disease that originated at Disney theme parks in December and spread to several other states and countries. In all, 131 people in California were infected.

Wisconsin: Dog flu fears A canine flu outbreak has sickened many dogs in the Midwest, and veterinarians are cautioning pet owners to keep their dogs from going nose-to-nose with other four-legged friends. The University of Wisconsin-Madison’s School of Veterinary Medicine said the virus has sickened at least 1,000 dogs in Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio and Indiana. Recent tests from the Wisconsin Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory have identified the strain as H3N2. A professor said it’s not yet known how effective current vaccines are against this strain, which is believed to have come from Asia. From Herald news services

IAM may delay S.C. vote By Dan Catchpole Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Machinists union is considering postponing next week’s union vote among Boeing production workers in South Carolina. While the vote is on the other side of the country, the outcome matters for Machinists in metro Puget Sound, a union leader here says. Organizing Boeing’s North Charleston plant will make it harder for the company to pit the two workforces against each other, said Jon Holden, head of the union’s District Lodge 751, which represents about 32,000 Boeing workers in metro Puget Sound and Portland. District 751 sent 16 members to South Carolina to help the organizing campaign. The International Association of Machinists and Aerospace

Workers and its opponents have stepped up their efforts as the vote approaches. Union spokesman Frank Larkin said Wednesday any decision on postponing the April 22 vote would be “based on the results of the house polling effort that is currently under way to determine levels of support.” He said no decision has been made but “it is something being considered.” He said there is no timetable for a decision. The union had enough support among eligible workers to petition the National Labor Relations Board last month to hold the vote. Almost 3,200 of the approximately 7,500 Boeing workers in South Carolina are eligible to vote. Many of those employees work on Boeing’s 787 Dreamliner, which is assembled there and in Everett. One-third of eligible workers must sign cards saying they want

a union vote, which is decided by a simple majority of votes cast. If the union postpones the vote, it can reschedule it in six months. If it loses the vote, it must wait a year before holding another vote. Elected leaders in South Carolina, including Gov. Nikki Haley and North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey, have strongly opposed the union effort and urged workers to vote no. The IAM has accused Boeing of spreading false information to pressure workers to vote no. Boeing says Machinists’ organizing efforts, including home visits, are intrusive and unwanted by workers. The company has told workers that they don’t need a union to have their voices heard. But the anti-union efforts belie that, Holden said. “If organizing didn’t balance the power, why would they be fighting it?”

A Boeing website about the vote says the company only wants employees to be fully informed for the election. The vote would involve production workers at the company’s 787 assembly plant and the nearby Interiors Responsibility Center, which provides interior parts for Dreamliner. The vote also includes production workers at Boeing’s new propulsion plant. Winning or losing won’t affect job security for Washington workers, Holden said. “We understand the pressures to deliver airplanes,” he said. South Carolina workers “deserve the same rights and protections we have.” Material from the Associated Press was used in this report.

Fight-for-$15 protests expand Associated Press The Fight for $15 campaign that began with fast-food workers expanded in size and scope Wednesday to include a range of workers who say their meager pay is a form of economic injustice. Organizers said demonstrations were planned for more than 230 U.S. cities and college campuses, as well as dozens of cities overseas. In New York City, more than 100 chanting protesters holding signs with messages like “We See Greed” gathered outside a McDonald’s around noon, prompting the store to lock its doors to prevent the crowd from taking over the store. Demonstrators laid on the sidewalk to stage a “die-in,” which became popular during the “Black Lives Matter” protests after recent police shootings of black men. Several wore hooded sweatshirts that said “I Can’t Breathe,” a nod to the recent death of a black man in New York City who was put in a police chokehold. Timothy Roach, a 21-year-old Wendy’s worker from Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who traveled to New York for the protests, said the police brutality black men face is linked to how they’re viewed by employers and the lack of economic opportunity they’re given. He said the protests were important to send a message to the people in charge at companies like McDonald’s. “If they don’t see that it matters to us, then it won’t matter to them,” Roach said.

EVERETT — The Boeing Co. is constructing two new buildings at Paine Field. An approximately 115,000-square-foot building is going up near the Everett Delivery Center and the flight line for Boeing’s Everett plant. That building, which will be known as 45-12, will support general manufacturing and predelivery work for commercial airplanes, according to Paul Bergman, a company spokesman.

State jobless rate declines to 5.9 percent Washington’s unemployment rate dipped to 5.9 percent in March — the first drop in several months. The state Employment Security Department estimates that employment increased by 100,900 jobs from March 2014 to March 2015, with 88,900 new jobs in the private sector and 12,000 in government. The drop followed several months of increasing or steady unemployment rates in Washington. The state’s unemployment rate in January and February was 6.3 percent. The construction industry led the way with 18,500 new jobs, followed by professional and business services with 17,700 new jobs, and education and health services with 13,200 new jobs.

New rules for retirement advisers Regulators Tuesday proposed new rules that would raise the standards for investment advice given to those saving for retirement. The proposal, which was backed by President Barack Obama in February, would require brokers who recommend investments for retirement accounts to put their client’s interests ahead of their own, holding them to what are known as “fiduciary standards.” The move is intended to cut back on hidden fees and conflicted advice that could be eating into retirement savings. The White House estimated this year that conflicts of interest and weak consumer protections cost those investing in individual retirement accounts up to $17 billion a year in excessive fees.

Workers and supporters rally outside a McDonald’s restaurant Wednesday in Chicago.

In Jackson, Mississippi, around 30 people demonstrated in a McDonald’s before being kicked out. Organizers said about half of them were McDonald’s workers, although a representative for McDonald’s Corp. said its local team found only one participant was a McDonald’s worker from the region. One demonstrator was arrested for trespassing. Protesters also gathered outside McDonald’s restaurants in cities including Denver and Los

Angeles, after demonstrations got off to an early start in Boston and Detroit on Tuesday. In Albany, New York, about 150 people marched and demonstrated outside a McDonald’s. The Fight for $15 campaign is being spearheaded by the Service Employees International Union and began in late 2012. Since then, organizers have used the spotlight to rally workers in a variety of fields, with adjunct professors being the most recent to

join in Wednesday. Kendall Fells, organizing director for Fight for $15 and an SEIU employee, said McDonald’s remains a focus of the protests and that the company’s recently announced pay bump shows fastfood workers already have a de facto union. McDonald’s earlier this month said it would raise its starting salary to $1 above the local minimum wage, and give workers the ability to accrue paid time off.

“Construction is on track” to finish by the first quarter of 2016, Bergman said. The building will accommodate about 100 employees. A new hangar, meanwhile, is going up on Paine Field’s south end at Boeing’s Everett Modification Center, which has been largely used for doing pre-delivery work on 787 Dreamliners.

Toyota to build new plant in Mexico Toyota said Wednesday it plans to spend $1 billion to build a new plant in Guanajuato, Mexico, where it will make its next-generation Corolla — a move that underscores the automotive industry’s move to invest heavily in Mexico to build new auto plants in recent years.

the proposed law creates unnecessary distinctions between types of permitted speech. For example, someone couldn’t hold a sign asking for an immediate exchange of money but could hold a sign that encourages passersby to visit a website or address to make the exchange. Protesters, companies, politicians, religious organizations and students soliciting donations for a fundraiser will continue to be able to operate in a right-of-way, so long as the actual exchange of money or services takes place elsewhere. Only panhandling is singled out, Shaw wrote. Shaw’s letter also addressed the city’s argument that public safety is the reason for the ordinance by noting that it is already illegal in Everett to “beg in a manner that hinders or obstructs the free passage of any person in a public place.” In urging the council to reject the ordinance, Shaw wrote that they “should not invite litigation by adopting this unconstitutional measure.” The ordinance focuses on conduct, not speech, said David Hall, Everett’s deputy city attorney. “We drafted the ordinance very carefully to

avoid infringing on anybody’s constitutionally protected free speech,” Hall said. And addressing safety concerns is a legitimate role for local government, he said. “We’ve talked to the ACLU about their concerns and read the same case law that they did, and it is our view that the ordinance is constitutional and entirely defensible,” Hall said. The ordinance is one of three the city has considered that has come under fire. A second proposed rule would have prohibited anyone from sitting or lying on sidewalks along Smith Avenue between the Everett Gospel Mission and Everett Station. The I-5 underpass near the mission was the site of a homeless encampment. Much of it was thinned out in March and new fences were installed, but some people have been returning to the area. That ordinance was removed from the council’s agenda Tuesday after the city received pressure from members of the Community Streets Initiative task force. The task force met last year and drew up a long list of recommendations to address problems of

to cut overseas seats Bloomberg News

ATLANTA — Delta Air Lines said it plans to cut seating capacity later this year on international routes as the strong dollar and declining oil prices dampen overseas demand. The pullback includes reductions of as much as 20 percent to Japan, Africa, India and the Middle East, 15 percent to Brazil and a halt in Moscow flights, Delta said Wednesday as it posted a first-quarter profit that beat analysts’ estimates. Delta jumped the most trading in almost three months. “This is music to the ears of many investors who believe Delta should not over-grow capacity,” Helane Becker, a Cowen & Co. analyst, said in a note. “The international markets have been a drag on results recently.” Delta, the world’s third-biggest carrier, gets about 30 percent of its revenue from international sales.

homelessness, addiction, mental health and petty crime in the city. The so-called “nosit/no-lie” ordinance was not one of those recommendations, and Sylvia Anderson, co-chair of the task force and CEO of the mission, said she told city officials that the task force would never have supported such a measure. The third proposed ordinance would establish an alcohol impact area covering much of downtown and commercial areas of the city, restricting the kinds and amounts of certain cheap alcoholic beverages that retailers could sell. That ordinance passed 4-2, despite an attempt by councilwoman Brenda Stonecipher to table it until there was a clearer schedule to implement the rest of the Streets Initiative’s recommendations. She also expressed concern that it would push the problem into other neighborhoods and not address the underlying causes of alcoholism. “I do know you can’t cut off the supply of it and expect people to stop drinking it,” she said.

IN OUR VIEW | Community Streets Initiative

Stay focused on helpful ideas When faced with a long list of tasks, the temptation is to start with the easiest to complete. Sometimes that can help build momentum toward taking on tougher tasks, but it can also divert attention and energy from the overall goal. That appears to be what happened earlier this week when the Everett City Council planned to discuss three proposals linked to the city’s struggles with homelessness and addiction issues. The council was to discuss three ordinances at its Wednesday meeting, two of which were recommendations that came out of Everett’s Community Streets Initiative. The initiative, launched last year by Mayor Ray Stephanson, brought together representatives from businesses, social service groups, churches and law enforcement to develop strategies that would do more than treat the symptoms of homelessness and addiction in the Everett area and instead

address the underlying causes. The task force used consensus to develop a list of 63 recommendations, and work has begun to implement them. Some, like investigation of a housing levy, are longerterm goals. Others were seen as easier to implement. But among those recommendations are those that some, including members of the Community Streets process, see as more punitive toward the homeless, reported Herald Writer Chris Winters earlier this week. One proposed ordinance would establish an alcoholimpact area, barring the sale of certain cheap but highalcohol beverages. Another would ban panhandling at intersections with a traffic signal and on median strips. A third proposed ordinance, one that wasn’t discussed or endorsed during the Community Streets process, would prohibit people from sitting or lying on sidewalks or camping

or erecting tents on public rights of way. The last ordinance, drafted in response to a homeless encampment between the Everett Gospel Mission and Everett Station, was removed from the council’s agenda for Wednesday. City leaders were correct to drop the third from consideration, at least for the time being; one reason being Community Streets members wanted more information about it. The City Council, of course, is free to consider any ordinance it chooses, but linking the one barring encampments to the other two threatened to muddle their fair consideration. It’s also doubtful a ban on sitting on sidewalks would endure a court challenge. The pros and cons of the two remaining ordinances can be debated but, particularly for reasons of safety, the ordinance barring panhandling at street corners and on medians should receive the council’s

consideration and without distractions. There are scores of worthy strategies that need the larger community’s consideration and support in the coming weeks and months. Anything that would draw attention and energy away from them should be discouraged. On a related note, it’s encouraging that a bill proposed by Rep. June Robinson, D-Everett, which allows ambulances to take those with mental health and substance abuse problems to crisis clinics or treatment centers rather than emergency rooms, has passed both House and Senate and is on its way to the governor’s desk. Previously only law enforcement officers were allowed to make that call. As we’ve said earlier, efforts like these will allow Everett to address the causes of these problems rather than simply displace the people who are suffering with them.

mental health problems — depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, short-term psychosis and schizophrenia. Washington’s and Colorado’s legalization of marijuana has been called “The Great Experiment” because at the time of the election there wasn’t enough data to prove either side’s case. The Great Experiment continues but it’s time to realize what we’ve done — we’ve offered up our youth and their future as the subjects!

Little, and cry, “The sky is falling” and claim there is no money, threatening to shut down the pool and sell part of a golf course but now they suddenly have saved enough money to pay for a scoreboard? Are you serious? Wouldn’t you think that if a facility needed an updated piece of equipment they should finance it though the ticket sales? And for that matter why are they buying one? Can’t these be leased or sponsored? When the time comes, I ask the Everett City Council to vote “no” on this irresponsible use of taxpayer money and urge citizens to join me in voicing your opposition!

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■MEDICAL CANNABIS

Registry stands to hurt our vets I was at the VA the other day and saw some vets talking about a database for medical marijuana patients. They were concerned, as one of them uses medical marijuana to treat his hepatitis B and PTSD. I disagreed. Not only would the thought of the pending lawsuits deter me. Invasion of privacy? Discrimination? A test case for the U.S. Supreme Court? Is it discriminatory? A lot of money to defend? Aside from the money from a cashstrapped state. But it would put veterans at risk of losing their benefits or health care. I still believe that it was not, or is it our governor’s desire to be known as the governor who betrayed his veterans’ trust. As are those who failed to consider the veterans. Much like they don’t exist. The 670,000 veterans living and working and voting in Washington may feel differently. This may end up hurting their brothers and sisters in arms. Marijuana is still illegal under federal law. Much like heroin or cocaine. This has the potential of putting vets in harm’s way again. Many vets use medical marijuana to help alleviate or suppress their harmful thoughts. Relieve the pain without becoming zombies. This section can have an ill effect on our state’s vets. The signing of this bill without eliminating the registry? Nothing good can come from it. People are being shortsighted. Should this have an ill affect on the state vets, 670,000 of our brothers and sisters. As a vet I’m obligated to stand with those who would have stood with me. If you read this, governor, show Washington why you were elected. Govern. Be proud to stand with them. John Rosselli Disabled American vet Darrington

Just say no to new scoreboard At the Everett City Council meeting on April 8, the mayor’s office announced that the City Council will be asked to approve a $675,000 budget amendment, to pay for a new scoreboard at the Xfinity Center. Ms. Bryant, the mayor’s chief of staff, explained that this would be paid for out of the city’s general budget, using money that was not spent out of the expense budget. Just last year, we were told that the city was so poor that the citizens would need to pay higher taxes and fees. Then, a majority of councilmembers (Not Stonecipher, Roberts and Gipson) approved the highest tax increase in the city’s history, enacting new taxes on our utility bills that went into effect Jan. 1 and will increase again in 2016 and 2017. They also passed sweeping fee increases on everything from permits to business licenses and a $20 tab fee equaling roughly the same amount of money that will be collected this year as that scoreboard will cost!

GOP rushes to aid wealthiest 5,550 families

ive credit to Republicans in Congress. They’ve discovered, belatedly, that income inequality is a problem, and they’re no longer proposing to give tax breaks to the wealthiest 2 percent of Americans. Now they are proposing to give tax breaks to the wealthiest two-tenths of 1 percent of Americans. On Tuesday afternoon, the House Rules Committee took up H.R. 1105, the “Death Tax Repeal Act of 2015.” It is an extraordinarily candid expression of the DANA MILBANK majority’s priorities: A tax cut costing the treasury $269 billion over a decade that would exclusively benefit individuals with wealth of more than $5.4 million and couples with wealth of more than $10.9 million. That’s a tax break for only the 5,500 wealthiest households in the country each year, according to the Joint Committee on Taxation. Of those, the 318 wealthiest estates each year — those worth $50 million or more — would see an average windfall of $20 million each, according to the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. And this at a time when the gap between rich and poor is already worse than it has been since the Great Depression? Never in the history of plutocracy has so much been given away to so few who need it so little. This is the ultimate perversion of the tea party movement, hijacked by wealthy and corporate interests. The estate tax has been part of American law in some form since 1797, according to the advocacy group Americans for Tax Fairness, as a shield against the sort of permanent aristocracy our founders fought to rid themselves of. It had long been a conservative ideal, and the essence of the American Dream, to believe that everybody should have an equal shot at success. But in their current bid to end the estate tax, Republicans could create a permanent elite of trustfund babies. The estate tax was a meaningful check on a permanent aristocracy as recently as 2001, when there were taxes on the portion of estates above $675,000; even then there were plenty of ways for the rich to shelter money for their heirs. As the son of a schoolteacher and a cabinetmaker, I’d like to see the estate tax exemptions lowered — so that taxes encourage enterprise and entrepreneurship while keeping to a minimum the number of Americans born who will never have to work a day in their lives. The current exemption of $5.4 million (the current estate tax has an effective rate averaging under 17 percent, according to the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center) does little to prevent a permanent aristocracy from growing — and abolishing it entirely turns democracy into kleptocracy. The kleptocrats offer all sorts of bogus justifications for giving away $269 billion to a few thousand of the wealthiest Americans. House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wisconsin, appearing late Tuesday before the Rules Committee, claimed that the estate tax is “absolutely devastating” to family farms, and further he claimed the repeal would remove “an additional layer of taxation” from assets that had already been taxed. Double taxation? Americans for Tax Fairness, citing Federal Reserve data, notes that 55 percent of the value of estates worth more than $100 million comprises unrealized capital gains that have never been taxed. Hurting family farmers and small businesses? In the entire country, only 120 small businesses and farms were hit by the estate tax in 2013. And for that tiny number affected, there are all sorts of provisions already in place to soften the blow: low valuation rules, delayed tax payments and other breaks and discounts. GOP leaders such as Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky and House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio have begun to recognize that the vast gap between rich and poor is detrimental — and to blame the problem on President Obama. Their solution, so far, has been to propose cuts of hundreds of billions of dollars from food stamps, Pell grants, Medicaid and other programs for those without means — and give $269 billion to the few who already have the most. “It sounds to me like there’s a lot of wealth envy in this country,” Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-North Carolina, complained Tuesday. The bill abolishing the estate tax, she said, “will draw a line in the sand.” Yes, it will: between the wealthiest twotenths of 1 percent — and everybody else.

Auditor employee’s hard drive damaged But authorities say nothing was found that indicated any intent to destroy data related to a federal investigation of auditor Troy Kelley. By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — The hard drive of a state worker’s laptop computer was damaged when he turned it over as part of a federal investigation involving Washington State Auditor Troy Kelley, but officials say there is no evidence of an intentional effort to destroy data. According to documents provided to The Associated Press under a public records request, officials with the Auditor’s Office wrote that in late March they attempted to image a laptop assigned to Jason JeRue, a longtime business associate of Kelley who has emerged as a key figure in the investigation,

but the back of the computer had been removed and replaced improperly. Pete Donnell, the statewide technology audit manager for the office, wrote that he sent the laptop back to technology staff, but kept the damaged hard drive, from which he was able to recover data. JeRue is a part-time technical writer who works from home in California. A federal grand jury subpoenaed the auditor’s office last month for his records, shortly before federal agents searched Kelley’s house in Tacoma. Federal authorities haven’t commented on the investigation. Jan Jutte, the auditor’s director of operations, said Wednesday

that JeRue had already intended to return his laptop because he said it wasn’t working, but noted that she had also asked him to return it along with a desktop computer he had been assigned because of the subpoena that was issued in early March. “I wanted to be able to verify that we got all of the work product that the feds wanted,” she said. “I wanted to see what was on those machines.” Jutte said that both computers were successfully imaged and that no additional information was found other than what the agency had already turned over. Jutte said that Donnell was looking for indications that things were altered or deleted after the date the agency received the subpoena, but didn’t find any evidence that occurred. “If he had, we would have restored and retrieved it,” she

said. Jutte didn’t have additional information on how the hard drive was damaged, but said that it sounded like it occurred because it wasn’t reinstalled properly. She said that while it was an older laptop, it would have been deployed to JeRue with the hard drive inserted correctly. Jutte said she didn’t believe the damage was intentional, but when asked if non-IT staff were allowed to remove their own hard drives from their agency computers, she responded: “That would not normally happen, no.” Among the records the grand jury sought were any of JeRue’s emails that might relate to Post Closing Department, an escrow-services company that Kelley owned and for which JeRue worked. The company was accused in a federal lawsuit of keeping $1.2 million that

should have been refunded to a customer. Kelley denied those allegations but paid an undisclosed settlement. Tax-fraud investigators have also sought records related to Kelley’s old business, and the FBI requested records of his expenses from the time he served as a state representative. JeRue, who is on leave from the agency, has not responded to requests for comment. Kelley has insisted that all of his own actions have been lawful and appropriate, but he has not responded to numerous interview requests from The AP and other news organizations. Earlier this month, Gov. Jay Inslee invoked his constitutional authority to demand that Kelley answer several questions about the ongoing federal investigation, and Kelley responded in writing, telling the governor that the

Delegations demand White House meet with Canada over dams By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

SPOKANE — The entire congressional delegation from Washington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana is demanding that the Obama administration begin negotiations with Canada to update a landmark treaty that governs the operation of dams on North America’s fourth-largest river. The treaty, signed in 1964, is important because the Columbia River basin’s dams affect the economy, environment and flood-control needs of millions of residents in the four states, along more than 1,200 miles of the river and its tributaries. “Given the 2024 deadline for certain aspects of the treaty, we ... urge you to initiate negotiations with Canada in 2015,” the 26 members of the Senate and House wrote to the president this week. The letter expressed concerns about the Obama administration’s slow pace on the complicated matter. The treaty governs operations of hydroelectric dams and reservoirs on the Columbia River. It has no expiration date, but either

country can cancel it or suggest changes beginning in 2024 with 10 years’ notice. Numerous issues already have emerged. For instance, the United States contends it should pay dramatically less to Canada for the various benefits it gets through the treaty. Also, Native American tribes in the U.S. and Canada are pushing for the return of salmon runs that some of the dams destroyed. Tribes are pushing for the treaty to include salmon restoration to the upper Columbia, above Grand Coulee Dam in northern Washington state. The U.S. has said the two countries should study the possibility of restoring fish passage over that dam. But Canada contends restoring fish migration and habitat is not a treaty issue. The new letter follows one sent to the president last year requesting action by mid-2014. It is intended to “express consternation with how the process has unfolded thus far.” “We remain concerned about ... the prioritization this matter is receiving within your Administration and the Department of State,” the letter states.

MEDFORD, Ore. — A government attorney has asked a federal judge to sentence the vice president of a defunct Oregon helicopter company to more than 15 years in prison for his role in a crash that killed nine people in 2008, saying his actions stemmed from “pure greed.” Prosecutors said that when the U.S. Forest Service solicited bids for helicopters to be used in firefighting operations, Steven Metheny submitted proposals with altered performance charts and falsified weight and balance records. Then, after winning the contract, the incorrect information was given to pilots who had to calculate the maximum payload capacity during firefighting operations. Metheny’s attorneys have yet to file their response to the memorandum. His attorney said in court last fall that Metheny’s plea to one count each of filing a false statement and of conspiracy to defraud the Forest Service does not constitute an admission that Metheny’s crimes contributed to the crash. The crash near Weaverville, California, killed the pilot, a Forest Service safety inspector and seven firefighters. Witnesses said the helicopter took off more slowly than normal before clipping trees and then crashing into a hillside. A National Transportation Safety Board investigation showed the Sikorsky S-61N helicopter weighed more than 19,000 pounds when pilots tried to take off from a mountaintop clearing during the Iron 44 wildfire in Shasta-Trinity National Forest. If Forest Service guidelines had been followed, investigators said, the weight shouldn’t have exceeded 15,840 pounds. Sentencing is set for June 15.

Land trust creates wildlife preserve along Oregon creek By Jasmine Rockow The Bulletin

BEND, Ore. — Deschutes Land Trust took another step forward in its goal to protect wildlife habitat along Whychus Creek northeast of Sisters. The trust recently bought 58 acres of land, creating the new Aspen Hollow Preserve. It’s on a half-mile stretch of Whychus Creek, between the Whychus Canyon Preserve and the Camp Polk Meadow Preserve.

In addition to the creek’s salmon and steelhead habitat, the land contains exposed cliffs and pine and aspen woodlands that provide habitat for mule deer, rocky mountain elk, golden eagles, spotted bats and songbirds. Acquisition of the Aspen Hollow Preserve brings the Whychus Canyon Preserve to 988 acres total. Brad Nye, conservation director for the land trust, said the property is generally healthy but “the immediate need is to get old

structures out of there and get it planted back to native vegetation.” Nye said the trust expects to spend roughly $75,000 on restoration in the preserve. In June, the trust will start removing dilapidated structures on the property, including a mobile home from the late 1960s. A building that houses a well will stay, Nye said. In the fall, the trust plans to begin planting native seeds and opening the property for guided tours. Forestry work to relieve

pressure on aspen groves from encroaching juniper and ponderosa pine probably will wait until next year. The Upper Deschutes Watershed Council has helped the trust in the past, and Nye said the trust may take the group back out to look at the newly acquired creek habitat. Whychus Creek flows into the Deschutes River near Lake Billy Chinook. The trust launched its Campaign for Whychus Creek last fall.

It has raised about one-third of its $11 million goal. the money to purchase the Aspen Hollow Preserve came from land trust members, the Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board, the Laird Norton Family Foundation and the Roundhouse Foundation, according to a Deschutes Land Trust news release issued Monday. Nye said the sellers in the Aspen Hollow deal asked the trust not to disclose their identity or the cost of the property.

Senate Republicans: Teacher pay reform needed By Donna Gordon Blankinship Associated Press

SEATTLE — Republicans in the state Senate said Wednesday they want most teacher salary negotiations to be statewide, with fewer local dollars going to pay educators. Such a change in state policy, along with transforming most local levies into a statewide school tax, is essential to meeting the 2012 McCleary decision by the Washington Supreme Court, GOP leaders said at a news conference.

The high court said the way Washington paid for public education was unconstitutional and more money must be spent on schools. The Republican proposal was one of several ideas in Olympia this week about how to fix the way the state pays for public schools. Most lawmakers involved in negotiations seem to agree on the following: ■ The state needs to pay for all-day kindergarten across Washington. ■ Student-teacher ratios of 17-to-1 are needed in kindergarten through

third grade. ■ It is a state responsibility to pay for the full cost of basic education. ■ Something has to be done about the state’s overreliance on local levies to pay for basic education, including teacher salaries. They have yet to agree on how fast the changes should be done, how much the moves will cost, where the money will come from and what state policies must be changed. On Tuesday, Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn said lawmakers should add

$2.2 billion to the state education budget during the next two-year budget cycle. On Wednesday, Senate Democrats unveiled three bills that would create a six-year spending plan to address the McCleary mandates, endorsed a new capital-gains tax on high earners, and proposed overhauling the way local property taxes are used to cover education costs. “What we’re trying to do is thread the needle between what actually needs to be done and what is politically feasible,” said Sen. Kevin Ranker,

D-Orcas Island. The Senate Republicans chimed in with their plan, which would prohibit local districts from bargaining over basic education salaries in the future and would move some local levy dollars into a state tax to pay those salaries. “We want it to be fair, we want it to be equitable and we want it to work over time,” said Sen. Bruce Dammeier, R-Puyallup. The state teachers union called the Republicans’ proposal an attack on local decision-making and on school employees.

“It appears to be more about the state grabbing more control over how local school districts run,” said Rich Wood, spokesman for the Washington Education Association. House Democrats also proposed a bill Wednesday that details some of their plans for answering the 2012 McCleary decision. Their proposal outlines the decisions that need to be made concerning statewide teacher pay and local levies and sets a timeline for making those decisions but doesn’t mandate any approaches.

Seattle CEO to pay every worker $70K West Coast sardine Associated Press SEATTLE — The CEO of Gravity Payments, a Seattle-based company that processes creditcard payments, told his employees this week that he was taking a pay cut so they would earn a base salary of $70,000, to be phased in over three years. Dan Price’s announcement surprised everyone at a company meeting, Seattle television station

KING reported. He said his pay cut is worth it to make the company’s more than 100 employees happy and to build loyalty. “I think this is just what everyone deserves,” Price told workers. Earlier this month, Seattle’s minimum wage law went into effect, which will eventually raise base hourly pay to $15. It’s phased in more quickly for big companies than

small ones. Washington already has the nation’s highest minimum wage at $9.47 an hour. People in the Seattle area rallied Wednesday for wage increases as part of national protests. Drivers for Uber and Lyft — the app-based car-hailing services — planned to gather in the Pioneer Square neighborhood, while airport workers rallied at Seattle-Tacoma

International Airport. For Gravity Payments employee Alyssa O’Neal, who will more than double her salary once the company’s policy is implemented, said she will use the extra money to buy a house for her young family. “House, absolutely. I have this goal of being a 21-year-old homeowner, and I’m going to reach that now, and I’m stoked,” O’Neal said.

Federal court won’t block elephants’ move Associated Press SEATTLE — A Seattle zoo was preparing to move its two elephants, Bamboo and Chai, to a new home in Oklahoma City after a federal appeals court declined Wednesday to block the transfer. A panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied a motion by activists to stop the move of the aging female elephants

from Woodland Park Zoo to the Oklahoma City Zoo. “We have the logistics in place to move them. For the animals’ safety and security we can’t provide the particulars,” zoo spokeswoman Gigi Allianic wrote in an email. “We are following the cues of our animals.” Activists have said the long trip to Oklahoma would endanger the elephants’ health and that

their quality of life there would be worse than in Seattle. The legal action was part of the broader debate about whether housing elephants in zoos is humane, with critics arguing the large animals need more space to roam than zoos can provide. Woodland Park Zoo President Deborah Jensen said in a statement that officials were grateful for the court’s decision and

were focused on the elephants’ welfare. Alyne Fortgang, a cofounder of the Elephant Justice Project, was at the zoo and said activists would not try to block the move. The activists wanted the elephants sent to a sanctuary. Woodland Park Zoo estimates it will cost $111,000 to ship the two elephants. The elephants would be on a long-term loan.

season closed by feds Associated Press GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Federal regulators Wednesday approved an emergency closure of commercial sardine fishing off Oregon, Washington and California to prevent overfishing. The decision was aimed at saving the West Coast sardine fishery from the kind of collapse that led to the demise of Cannery Row, made famous by John Steinbeck’s novel of the same name set in Monterey, California. Meeting outside Santa Rosa, California, the Pacific Fishery Management Council voted to halt the current season as early as possible, affecting about 100 fishing boats. The season normally would end June 30. Earlier this week, the council shut down the next sardine season, which was set to begin July 1. The action was taken based on revised estimates of sardine populations, which found the fish were declining in numbers faster

than earlier believed. The council did not take Wednesday’s decision lightly and understood the pain the closure would impose on the fishing industry, said council member Michele Culver, representing the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. However, it was necessary because of a new assessment of sardine stocks showing they were much lower than estimated last year, when harvest quotas were set. The once-thriving sardine industry crashed in the 1940s. Since it revived in the 1990s, most of the West Coast catch is exported to Asia and Europe, where some is canned, and the rest goes for bait. Sardine population estimates have been declining since 2006, and catch values since 2012. The reasons are not well-understood, though it is widely accepted that huge populations swings are natural and generally are related to water temperatures.

series against Spokane. Noah Juulsen left during the first period of that game, while Tristen Pfeifer departed in the third. The Tips wound up needing three overtimes before winning 2-1 to end the series. Pfeifer has been ruled out for the remainder of the season, while Juulsen hasn’t suited up since. Everett has enough defensemen to still

LOS ANGELES — Nelson Cruz went deep again Wednesday night. That makes six homers in five games and at least one in five straight games. And the good news pretty much ends there for the Seattle Mariners. The Los Angeles Dodgers roughed up Taijuan Walker for three runs in the first inning and completed a three-game sweep over the Mariners with a 5-2 victory at Dodger Stadium. Sure, the script changed for the finale. The Mariners built early multi-run leads Monday and Tuesday before allowing the Dodgers to scramble back for a pair of 6-5 walk-off victories. This time, it was the Dodgers. And no real counter-punch — in part because of a stunning mental lapse by Robinson Cano while the Mariners were mounting a rally in the sixth inning. So, yes, Cruz’s homer and little else on the plus Taijuan Walker: side. Walker (0-2) M’s starter gave up five runs allowed five and six hits in four runs on six hits innings before and walked exiting for a pinch- four batters in hitter. That makes four innings. two rocky starts for Walker after winning a rotation spot with a dominant spring. It also meant a beleaguered bullpen had to chew up four more innings. The rotation averaged just five innings per game on a 2-4 trip through Oakland and LA that included three extrainning games. Cruz got his homer by driving a 1-1 slider from Brett Anderson over the center-field wall with two outs in the fourth inning. In doing so, Cruz became the fifth player in franchise history to hit homers in five straight games. Jay Buhner did it twice (1995 and 1996). Richie Zisk did it in 1981, and Alex Rodriguez did it in 1999. Ken Griffey Jr. had an eightgame run in 1993. Cruz’s homer cut the Dodgers’ lead to 5-1. The Mariners drew closer in the sixth after loading the bases with no outs, which knocked Anderson out of the game. In came Paco Rodriguez, who retired Kyle Seager on a run-scoring grounder to first.

EVERETT — According to a 1970sera television series, eight is enough. The Everett Silvertips defense has needed just half of that. Everett’s injury-riddled blue line has forced the Tips to play most of their past three games with just four defensemen, but so far Everett’s decimated defensive corps has held up to the task. “I feel like we’re doing pretty well,” defenseman Cole MacDonald said Wednesday before the team departed for Portland for Thursday’s Game 3 against the Winterhawks. “We only had four or five D for the last couple games, so we played all right. That loss was tough in the second game (a 4-3 double-overtime defeat last Saturday that knotted the best-of-seven playoff series at 1-1), so we have to get that back in Game 3.” The Tips have watched as their defensive resources have dwindled. Everett lost two defensemen to injury in Game 6 of its first-round playoff

Snohomish starting pitcher Bailey Greenlee throws a pitch against Monroe during a game on Wednesday.

By David Krueger Herald Writer

MONROE — Mike Birch knew it was inevitable. The Monroe softball coach preached to his team that it would be difficult for a Wesco 4A team to go undefeated this season. Wednesday afternoon, he was proven correct. Snohomish, the defending Wesco 4A North champion, handed the Bearcats their first loss of the season with a 6-1 league victory at Sky River Park. “I told them, there’s not

going to be any undefeated teams in this conference this year,” Birch said. “You’ve got four really good teams: Jackson, Snohomish, us and Lake (Stevens). ... These teams are too good. The competition is too good.” Snohomish led almost the entire way, with Alyssa Simons (2-for-4) hitting a two-run double in the top of the first inning. Simmons added another RBI double in the third to build the Panthers’ lead. Catcher Morgan Greenlee’s two-run single in the fifth

added a pair of insurance runs for Snohomish (2-1 league, 6-2 overall). “They’ve got power pitching and are a well-coached team. This is a huge game for us,” said Snohomish head coach Lou Kennedy. “We haven’t had a signature win. I think this is a good one for us. We’re super young and you’ve got to build from that. The kids are like, ‘Yeah, we can do this.’” Sami Reynolds, Snohomish’s leadoff hitter, went 2-for-3 with two runs scored and an RBI for the Panthers, who tallied nine hits in the contest.

he Lake Stevens kokanee are starting to bite, and right on schedule, according to Marcy Rockenbach at Greg’s Custom Rods in Lake Stevens. And that’s a good thing, with the popular kokanee derby coming up May 16. The surface temperature of the lake hit 52.7 degrees early this week, pretty close to the 53-degree rule of thumb for an active bite. “The lake warmed up and guys started hitting fish,” Rockenbach said. “We’re seeing catches of five to eight for the regulars, going 10 inches or so, but nothing of any size yet.” The fish are scattered, Rockenbach said, so the best technique right now is to cover a lot of water, stay shallow — no deeper than about 15 feet — and watch for jumpers. The old reliable lure combo of a Wedding Ring tipped with a kernel of corn is starting to share the lake with some newer gear, Rockenbach said. One productive newcomer is the Kokanator, a little half-ounce jig that looks like a mini version of the Buzz Bomb or Point Wilson Dart. Let your boat drift, cast the jig out, let it sink to fish depth and jig it back. Popular colors include pink, pink with a white stripe, and orange/pink/white. Another lure relatively new on the scene is called Kokanee Bites. It looks “sort of like a spider, with legs and a yellow body,” according to Rockenbach, and is trolled behind a small dodger, with no downrigger required while the fish are shallow. A third new rig is put out by Rocky Mountain Tackle and is called “Plankton.” Rockenbach said it’s similar to Kokanee Bites, and that early indications point to it as possibly the season’s hot lure. It’s also trolled behind a dodger or Swing Blade, she said.

in some areas will be a little lower, O’Toole said in a release. Local waters, Marine Areas 8-1, 8-2 and 9, will be open 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on May 2 and May 13. Hood Canal, Marine Area 12, will be open 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on May 2, 9, 11 and 13. Discovery Bay, Marine Area 6, will be open 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. on May 2, 9, 11 and 13. Marine Areas 7 East, South and West (the San Juan Islands) will be open May 2, May 13-16, May 20-23, and May 27-30. In Marine Area 7 West only, the season will be open daily beginning June 1 until Sept. 15 or until the quota is reached, whichever comes first. In some central Puget Sound marine areas, the typical schedule of Saturday and Wednesday openings will be disrupted on Wednesday, May 6, because of an extremely low midday tide. Those areas, O’Toole said, will open the following Wednesday, May 13, instead.

Big game changes The state Fish and Wildlife Commission, meeting in Tumwater last week, adopted relatively generous big game hunting rules for the upcoming season. The new rules expanded hunting opportunities for virtually every big game species and gear type, by: ■ Adding two more days to the modern firearm season for mule deer. ■ Shifting archery elk season to start the Saturday after Labor Day, providing better opportunity for hunters in cooler weather. ■ Doubling the number of spring bear permits available in northeast Washington. ■ Allowing elk hunters using muzzleloaders to hunt in more game management units. ■ Increasing moose permits from 136 to 170 in the northeast part of the state, where moose populations are near an all-time high. The commission did not adopt a proposal to restrict the use of bait when hunting for deer and elk. Instead, commissioners directed the Department of Fish and Wildlife to work with stakeholders to bring forward new options for consideration next year.

Razor clams The next razor clam dig on the

and Elger Bay Store. Tickets will be available until 2 p.m. Friday at all sites, and until 9 p.m. at Stanwood Eagles. This is an all-weather derby, with fishing in Marine Areas 8-1 and 8-2 only. The derby drew a record 103 entrants last year. They weighed in 27 fish. The winner was a 20.13-pound chinook. A nice little derby, and the word is that there are a few adult spring chinook in local waters. — Wayne Kruse

coastal beaches has been approved after marine toxin tests showed the clams are safe to eat. Dan Ayres, the state’s coastal shellfish manager, said the upcoming dig coincides with the Long Beach Razor Clam Festival, scheduled for April 18-19 in Long Beach. Festival events range from free clamdigging lessons to a fritter cook-off. More information is available at http://longbeachrazorclamfestival. com. Following is the upcoming dig schedule: April 17, 6:03 a.m., minus 0.2 feet, at Long Beach, Twin Harbors, and Mocrocks; April 18, 6:52 a.m., minus 0.9 feet, at all beaches except Kalaloch; April 19, 7:39 a.m., minus 1.3 feet at all beaches except Kalaloch; April 20, 8:25 a.m., minus 1.5 feet at Long Beach and Twin Harbors; April 21, 9:11 a.m., minus 1.3 feet at Long Beach and Twin Harbors; April 22, 9:57 a.m., minus 0.9 feet at Long Beach and Twin Harbors; April 23, 10:46 a.m., minus 0.4 feet at Long Beach and Twin Harbors; and April 24, 11:38 a.m., plus 0.2 feet at Long Beach and Twin Harbors.

Skagit protest Occupy Skagit III was held April 4 in Rockport, drawing some 70 sport anglers to protest the continued closure of the spring catch-andrelease wild steelhead season on the Skagit River. When that iconic fishery closed in 2010, according to Gary Bee of the Sky Valley Chapter of Trout Unlimited, it was done for a good reason. The declining wild steelhead population was listed as threatened under the Endangered Species Act, and even though it was a bitter pill to swallow, Bee said, it was a reality check most anglers supported. But because of many factors, Bee said, the number of wild steelhead adult returns on the Skagit is on the increase. Last year, 9,500 fish returned to the Skagit to spawn as part of a continued upward trend. The protesters say it’s time for the state to start the process of reopening a catch-and-release spring wild steelhead fishery, based on solid science, stringent regulations and monitoring.

Wood duck cams The Richland Rod & Reel Club operates three live cams in wood

duck nest boxes, and on Monday the video feeds showed wood duck hens in all three boxes. Club spokesman Dale Schielke said hens will lay one egg per day, in the mornings, for 8-12 days, then start incubation. During incubation, the hen will be on the nest constantly except for short food-and-drink breaks at dawn and dusk. The club provided the following viewing sites: http://www.ustream. tv/channel/rrgc-nestcam; http:// www.ustream.tv/channel/rrgcduckcam; and http://www.ustream. tv/channel/rrgc.

Silvertips: Defense logging heavy minutes From Page C1

ice the standard six. However, for long stretches of the past three contests the Tips have deployed just four: MacDonald, Ben Betker, Lucas Skrumeda and Kevin Davis. With two of those three games requiring multiple overtimes, those four have gone far beyond the normal call of duty when it comes to ice time. “Those guys have logged a lot of minutes and handled it pretty darn well,” Everett coach Kevin Constantine said. “We kind of played with five-and-a-half D the last part of the season, and certainly in the Spokane series there were moments where we were down to only four D playing. Those guys have played a lot of hockey and done a very admirable job, especially Game 6 against Spokane and Game 1 against Portland.” The additional minutes is a serious physical drain. If a team is playing six on defense, then in a 60-minute game the defensemen would average 20 minutes, with the top performers getting a little more. In Game 6 against Spokane, which lasted more than 103 minutes, the four defensemen who absorbed the majority of the minutes would have approached 50 minutes of ice time. “It’s tiring of course, but you just have to battle through it,” MacDonald said. “We’ve been training all year for it, so we just have to step up on the right occasion.” Said Skrumeda: “You just have to stay mentally engaged into the game, just take it one shift at a time because when the games go into those long overtimes the next shift could be your last one.

House passes bill exempting WHL from state laws restricting child labor OLYMPIA — The Washington state House of Representatives has passed a bill to exempt the state’s Western Hockey League teams from state laws restricting child labor. There are four WHL teams in the state: the Everett Silvertips, the Seattle Thunderbirds, the Spokane Chiefs and the Tri-City Americans. Under Senate Bill 5893, which passed Wednesday in a 92-6 vote, the mostly 16-to-20-year olds who play for Washington’s four teams won’t be considered “employees” for legal purposes. The players, many of whom are attempting to play their way onto professional hockey teams, earn small stipends and a year of college for every year they’re on a WHL team. The state’s Department of Labor and Industries has an open investigation into possible child labor law violations by the state’s four WHL teams. The bill to exempt those teams from that law now moves back to the Senate, which approved a version with slightly different language in a 47-0 vote on March 3. Associated Press

You just have to drink lots of water on the bench and you just have to give everything you’ve got every shift because you never know what’s going to happen out there.” However, both MacDonald and Constantine said there are actually benefits to tightening the defensive rotation, ones that could outweigh the fatigue factor. “Sometimes you can get in a little better rhythm of playing when you just go on and go off,” Constantine said. “Sometimes when you know you’re going to go on and go off you keep your game a little simpler and you try a little less, and sometimes trying less is better in the game. It’s not that long ago teams played more four D than they did six D. It’s unusual in the past five or 10 years, but not that unusual in the

history of the game. “But that being done, it’s still not something we’d like to see because it didn’t work in the last game,” Constantine continued. “We’d like to think we took the game to overtime, and in the first overtime we probably had a couple more chances than them. But overall in the game it was asking too much of those guys. So as good a story as it is, it’s not the way we want to play. We don’t want to play with four guys, we want to play with six.” Juulsen didn’t practice Thursday, meaning Betker, MacDonald, Skrumeda and Davis may be called upon to carry a heavy burden yet again in Thursday’s Game 3. With the series switching to Portland, the Winterhawks will have the last line change and decide who star

forwards Oliver Bjorkstrand and Nicolas Petan line up against. Everett’s managed to keep those two relatively contained through two games as they combined for just four points in the first two games. But they teamed up to score the game winner in the second overtime of Game 2, and the Tips defensemen know they still have their hands full. “Those guys have a lot of talent, they’ve been doing it in the league for a couple years now,” Skrumeda said. “You can’t give them any time or space, you have to play them honest or they’ll make you look bad. I thought in Game 1 we did a good job on them, Petan had just the one point. In Game 2 they did a little bit more damage. It’s going to be more of a group effort in Portland without the last change, but I think we’ll be able to get the job done.”

Slap shots Tips winger Dawson Leedahl, who missed the previous five games because of injury, took part in practice Wednesday and may be able to return for Thursday’s Game 3. ... Everett announced Wednesday it has signed prospect forward Brian King to a WHL education contract. King, a 1999-born resident of Golden, Colorado, was a fourth-round pick in the 2014 bantam draft. This season he played for the Rocky Mountain Roughriders National 16U team, with whom he had nine goals and nine assists in 28 games. He did not attend Everett’s training camp last August because of injury, but did spend a week practicing with the Tips in February.

“The thing about power pitching is you have to match aggressive pitchers with aggressive hitting and we were excellent with that today,” Kennedy said. “We were staying aggressive and attacking the ball. If you get too picky with a pitcher that talented then you end up chasing her pitches instead of your pitches. We managed to get on the pitches we wanted to see and it worked out.” Monroe freshman pitcher McKenzie Schulz (6-1) suffered the first loss of her Bearcats career. However, Birch isn’t worried about how his star will respond. “She’s disappointed. But she won’t have any trouble bouncing back from this at all,” Birch said. “She’s a real tough competitor.” “McKenzie’s a stud. She’s going to be fine,” agreed Kennedy. “She’ll be focused, she’ll come out more determined. The next time we face her who knows what happens? That’s a really good team. I was really impressed.” The six runs were more than enough for the Panthers’ pitchers, who combined to allow only one run on two hits. Starter Bailey Greenlee struck out six

They came out revived and ready to go.” Snohomish had already suffered a couple of losses this season, with the Panthers dropping a 4-1 non-conference contest to Woodinville and losing 4-3 to league rival Lake Stevens — a Vikings squad that Monroe beat 7-1. “I’m very happy with where we are right now,” Kennedy said. “How can you not be happy with where we are right now?

Megan Rybar and Kiley Ochoa each hit a double for Monroe (6-1, 8-1), accounting for both of the Bearcats’ hits. Ochoa’s came in the bottom of the fifth and scored Monroe’s lone run. “They produce at the plate and they did it tonight

against some really, really strong pitching,” Birch said of the duo. Despite suffering the loss, Birch gave the same speech in the Bearcats’ postgame meeting as he always does. “It’s the same message

when we win a game: ‘We won the game, now flush it. We’re moving on. Forget it,” Birch said. “Now, they’ve got to forget this one. The biggest takeaway is every game is going to be a battle. “Now they know it for a fact.”

Aaron Hernandez, a former tight end with the New England Patriots, completed a stunning fall Wednesday when a Massachusetts jury found him guilty of first-degree murder. It was a staggering judgement for Hernandez, 25, who in August 2012 signed a five-year contract extension worth roughly $40 million and who would have been in the prime of his career playing for one of the country’s marquee sports franchises. The jury in Bristol County Superior Court in Fall River, Massachusetts, ruled that Hernandez acted with “extreme atrocity or cruelty” in the June 2013 shooting death of 27-year-old semiprofessional football player Odin Lloyd. Lloyd, who was dating the sister of Hernandez’s fiancee, was found shot six times in an industrial park not far from Hernandez’s home. Upon hearing the verdict, which followed a 76-day trial and 35 hours of deliberation, Hernandez’s face remained expressionless. He sat down and appeared to mouth, “unreal.” He shook his head and licked his lips, holding his chin up. An officer handcuffed Hernandez’s tattooed hands together. The verdict brought an automatic sentence of life in prison without possibility of parole. “Aaron Hernandez may have been a wellknown New England Patriots football player,” Bristol County District Attorney Thomas Quinn said in a news conference outside the courthouse. “However, in the end, the jury found that he was just a man who committed a brutal murder. The fact that he was a professional athlete meant nothing in the end.” Hernandez will next stand trial in a separate case, a 2012 double murder in Boston that occurred months before he signed his contract extension. Prosecutors say Hernandez fired five shots into a car and killed Daniel de Abreu and Safiro Furtado following an altercation at a nightclub. Pending a potential appeal, Hernandez will spend his life sentence at Massachusetts Correctional Institute Cedar Junction in Walpole. The facility is a 3.7-mile drive away from Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, where the Patriots play home games.

Hernandez will start Saturday against Texas Felix Hernandez, as it turns out, didn’t need to throw a bullpen workout to convince Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon that he’s sufficiently recovered from a sore right quadriceps muscle to make his scheduled start Saturday against Texas. “Felix is fine,” McClendon said. “Felix will go Saturday. He didn’t throw (Wednesday), but I had a conversation with Felix, and he’s fine. He’s ready to go.” McClendon said Tuesday that he wanted to see Hernandez throw a bullpen workout before clearing him for Saturday’s start. Hernandez’s sore quad surfaced last Sunday at Oakland on a play in the first inning and aggravated on another play in the third inning. Hernandez left the game after the fifth inning.

Tuesday’s game Dodgers 6, Mariners 5

Zunino plays on

Slumping catcher Mike Zunino shook off a sore left wrist and started for the eighth time in nine games on Wednesday. He jammed his wrist while applying a late tag to Carl Crawford on the play that ended Tuesday’s game. “It’s fine,” Zunino said. “It was one of those freak things. I went to go tag him and not knowing where he was at. I had to get there quickly. I threw it into him, and jammed it a little bit. But it feels good.” Zunino also appeared in line for a day off because he was 0-for-9 with seven strikeouts in the two previous games against the Dodgers. He is also 3-for-26 overall in eight games. “He’s pressing a little bit right now,” McClendon said. “We’ve got to get him to relax a little bit. Get back into the strike zone.” But sitting Zunino, McClendon said, isn’t the answer. “It’s like when I was in Detroit,” McClendon said. “(Miguel) Cabrera is struggling against left-handers, hitting .179 in the seventh, eighth and ninth innings. What do you want me to do? Pinch-hit? “Zunino will be fine.”

Minor details

Shortstop Chris Taylor was 3-for-11 through Tuesday with one double and two RBI through three games of his rehab assignment at Triple-A Tacoma. Taylor suffered a broken bone in his right wrist March 13 when struck by a foul ball against Milwaukee. The Mariners placed Taylor on the 15-day disabled list on April 5 retroactive to March 27 — the maximum allowable backdating. That means he is already eligible for reinstatement. ■ Right-hander Edwin Diaz delivered another strong start Tuesday by pitching six innings in Hi-A Bakersfield’s 1-0 victory over Modesto. He pitched five shutout innings in his first start.

Looking back

It was 23 years ago Thursday — April 16, 1992 — that a lineup mistake by manager Bill Plummer forced the Mariners to play without a designated hitter after the top of the first inning against the White Sox in Chicago. Plummer submitted a lineup card that had Tino Martinez and Pete O’Brien each listed as first basemen. That forced the Mariners to enter starting pitcher Rich DeLucia as a substitute. DeLucia replaced O’Brien but exited for pinch-hitter Dave Cochrane when scheduled to hit. Cochrane remained in the game at shortstop, and the Mariners replaced starting shortstop Rich Amaral with a series of relievers. And the Mariners lost 5-4.

Short hops

The Dodgers designated lefty David Huff for assignment after claiming another lefty, Ryan Dennick, on waivers from Cincinnati. Huff started and pitched four innings in Tuesday’s game. ... Nelson Cruz hit three homers in the first two games against the Dodgers and leads the majors with 14 homers in interleague play since the start of the 2014 season. ... Cruz entered Wednesday as one of 14 players in franchise history to hit homers in four straight games. Three players have fivegame streaks. (Jay Buhner has two.) The franchise record is eight straight games by Ken Griffey Jr. in 1993. ... Rickie Weeks needs one more homer to reach 150 for his 12-year career.

On tap

The Mariners have an open date Thursday before opening a nine-game homestand Friday with the first of three weekend games against Texas at Safeco Field. Lefty J.A. Happ (0-0, 2.84) is scheduled to start at 7:10 p.m. Friday against Rangers right-hander Yvonne Gallardo (1-1, 5.59). The game can be seen on Root Sports and heard on 710 ESPN.

Mariners closer Fernando Rodney has had two straight bad outings, including blowing a save in the ninth inning of Tuesday night’s loss to the Dodgers.

M’s McClendon sticks with Rodney as closer By Bob Dutton The New Tribune

LOS ANGELES — First things first: Fernando Rodney remains the Seattle Mariners’ closer. Two straight rocky outings haven’t changed that. “You got somebody else you want me to put out there?” manager Lloyd McClendon challenged prior to Wednesday’s series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers. “Here’s the deal. People fly off the handle and say, ‘Rodney stinks. We need to change. Get another closer.’ OK, when that doesn’t work out, then what? You want me to go back? Or do you want me to try somebody else? “That’s how all hell breaks loose.” So McClendon will stick with

the devil he knows. Rodney points to location issues as the cause for his problems in squandering leads while yielding six runs and seven hits over 11⁄3 innings in his last two outings. “My mechanics are not the problem,” he insisted. “I feel like I’m delivering the ball there. But a couple pitches I missed in the strike zone and, here, you can’t miss.” Rodney blew a save Tuesday for the first time in 24 chances dating to July 20 when the Dodgers sent the Mariners to a 6-5 loss by scoring two runs in the ninth inning. That followed a big meltdown by Rodney on Sunday in Oakland when he failed to hold a four-run lead in the ninth inning in a non-save situation.

The Mariners rallied to win that game in 10 innings. “I just think he’s falling behind a few guys,” catcher Mike Zunino said. “When you fall behind big-league hitters, and have to throw fastballs for strikes, you get hit or, sometimes, you walk guys. “His stuff is there. Everything looks sharp. I just think he needs to get into the zone earlier in the count. That’d be the key.” Rodney’s two rocky outings came after he delivered two scoreless one-inning appearances while closing out victories. “It’s only eight games,” he said. “I’m going to prepare myself for (Wednesday) and try to be ready — because I know I’ve got my stuff.”

Mariners From Page C1

Then it got strange. When Logan Morrison drew a walk, Cano began trotting home — as if the bases had been loaded. He realized his mistake too late and was thrown out before he could scramble back to third. Mike Zunino’s grounder to third resulted in a force at second that ended the inning. Sheesh. Anderson (1-0) worked the necessary five innings for the victory before Paco Rodriguez, Chris Hatcher, Pedro Baez and J.P. Howell closed out the LA sweep. The Mariners, at 3-6, now have an open date Thursday to regroup before opening a nine-game homestand Friday with the first of three weekend games against Texas. Walker appeared in no real difficulty in the first inning with a runner at first and two outs before a walk to Tuesday hero Howie Kendrick set up a big inning. It was Kendrick’s two-run single Tuesday that provided the Dodgers with a 6-5 walk-off victory. This time, he extended the inning for Andre Ethier, who drove an RBI single to left. Anything close to a good throw by left fielder Rickie Weeks makes for an interesting play at the plate. As it was, Yasmani Grandal scored easily. Scott Van Slyke followed with a two-run double over Weeks’ head and, that quickly, the Mariners were in a 3-0 hole. The Mariners had a chance to answer in the second when Zunino sent a two-out drive into the right-center gap with

The Mariners’ Nelson Cruz celebrates after hitting a home run in his fifth straight game during Wednesday’s contest against the Dodgers.

Morrison at first base — but Joc Pederson made a diving catch for the final out. Walker worked himself into more trouble by issuing three walks in the second inning before Adrian Gonzalez drilled a two-out RBI single that ate up Morrison at first base and pushed the lead to 4-0. The Dodgers added another run in the third after Walker began the inning by nicking Ethier with a pitch. One-out

singles by Juan Uribe and Pederson made it 5-0 before Walker stranded runners at first and third. Cruz’s homer made it 5-1 in the fourth, and the Mariners ran their way out of a chance to draw closer in the fifth when Zunino, after some initial hesitation, tried to score from second on Justin Ruggiano’s single to center. Pederson made a strong throw to the plate for the out.

D-backs promote Cuban OF Tomas Associated Press SAN DIEGO — The Arizona Diamondbacks recalled heralded outfielder Yasmany Tomas from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday to give them a spark off the bench. “We definitely needed a player that we felt comfortable with coming here and not having any fear of swinging the bat, because we need a player off the bench,” general manager Dave Stewart said. Arizona signed the 24-year-old Cuban defector to a $68.5 million, six-year deal in December.

NEW ORLEANS — Anthony Davis had 31 points and 13 rebounds and the New Orleans Pelicans earned their first playoff berth since 2011 with a 108-103 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night. Davis, who’ll make his playoff debut against Golden State, came through in the waning minutes with two jumpers, two blocks and two rebounds to prevent the

Spurs from pulling off a 23-point comeback. New Orleans had to win to make the postseason because Oklahoma City also won in Minnesota. The teams finished with identical records, but the Pelicans held the tiebreaker on head-to-head results. Russell Westbrook scored 37 points in Oklahoma City’s 138-113 victory over Minnesota. Westbrook locked up his first scoring title. The Thunder will miss the playoffs for the first time

Storm have top pick in today’s WNBA draft Associated Press Owners of the first and third picks in the WNBA draft, the Seattle Storm have been preparing their draft board for the past few months. Much of that preparation got scrapped last week when Notre Dame junior Jewell Loyd and Minnesota redshirt sophomore Amanda Zahui B. decided to turn pro. The two AP All-Americans made the rare choice to leave school early to enter the draft. Both turn 22 this calendar year, thereby making them eligible. “The draft certainly got more interesting over the last couple of days,” Seattle Storm President Alisha Valavanis said. “We’ll continue to analyze the best possible way to maximize our picks.” Seattle coach Jenny Boucek said there is a “100 percent chance” Seattle will select Loyd, Zahui B. or UConn forward Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis with the top pick. The Tulsa Shock have the second pick in the draft and coach Fred Williams said the team is leaving its options open. A trade is possible, Williams said, if an offer comes along that is “likable to our needs ... but I like what I see in the draft. There are so many highquality athletes, especially in the top tier.” While it’s commonplace for underclassmen to enter the NBA early, it’s still rare on the women’s side and Loyd and Zahui B.’s decisions have provided a buzz for Thursday’s draft. “It’s a nice shake-up for all of us,” Connecticut Sun coach Anne Donovan said. “I’m thankful for the two additions because it drops players down that

She’s a little bit older already. She’s kind of got a pro body, if you will. “But Jewell Loyd, I’ll be honest, I was very surprised. I just didn’t think coming from Notre Dame that we were going to see that jump anytime soon.” Donovan said there’s been a greater interest in the draft the past week after the two turned pro. “There’s a lot of people talking about this outside of WNBA, outside of women’s basketball,” Donovan said. “So it’s bringing a different look into the league and it’s getting some outsiders that really haven’t paid too much attention to us to now talk about it and start to understand that the WNBA is here.” WNBA President Laurel J. Richie said she’s excited about the interest the underclassmen have created, but suggested this isn’t going to be a new trend. “I think this is a very unique set of circumstances that have Jewell and Zahui B coming out and making that decision,” she said. “These are decisions that individual athletes make given their personal situations. As long as that is within the guidelines, it truly is their decision to make.” Other potential firstround picks include Duke’s Elizabeth Williams, Wake Forest’s Dearica Hamby, and Cal’s Reshanda Gray and Brittany Boyd.

In 1862, a cheaper type of power for moving toys was developed that used a spring, which was wound with a key or crank. Some still were being made as late as 1920. By the end of World War II, plastic parts were used for toys and the earlier metal wind-up was out of production. Battery-operated toys

GREAT PLANT PICK What: A resilient and tough garden plant, Epimedium x warleyense is unusual among epimediums for its coppery, orange-red flowers, which appear in early spring. Soon after the flowers emerge, beneath them unfurl the delicately divided leaves. Each leaflet is heart-shaped and blushed with red — setting off the tone of the flowers. This foliage matures to green, remaining weather resistant and fully evergreen through winter. Although it is slower-growing

than some of the other cultivars of epimedium, it eventually covers a large area, thus making a good groundcover. Old-fashioned common names for this genus include barrenwort (for purported medicinal qualities) and bishop’s hat (for flower shape). Some gardeners like the name fairy wings, but most just call these epimediums. Cut the leaves to the ground in January or early February to allow the new flowers to take center stage. Where: This tough groundcover tolerates a wide range of

soil conditions from sand to clay and moist to well-drained. It thrives in open to dappled shade but will tolerate deep shade, although the flowering is greatly reduced. It will tolerate drought well, but if the soil conditions are poor it is best to provide some occasional water during the driest periods of summer. Size: Reaches a height of 1 foot, 4 inches with a spread of 5 feet. GreatPlantPicks.org

For a job well done, call in some real professionals — a plumber, interior decorator, house painter, etc.

Have you just purchased a house? Sure, you may still have lots of work ahead of you before you can call it the perfect home, but settling in fast and getting cozy will set you on your way. Here are five tips to help you get comfortable.

1. For safety’s sake, change the locks on all exterior doors to ensure that the only people who have keys are those you have given to them personally. You should also draw up an evacuation plan and ensure there are enough smoke detectors and fire extinguishers in the house. 2. Entrust any renovations and repairs to true professionals to ensure the job is done well. If you have several similar jobs to be done (plumbing or electricity, for example), have them all done at the same time. Shop around for several quotes to keep costs to a minimum.

4. If the house is big but your many belongings are already making it feel cramped, there is a solution. Call in a home storage systems expert to show you how to maximize the space you have. 5. Lastly, if it isn’t already done, you should invest in some basic tools for maintaining the house and yard. A lawnmower and a kitted-out toolbox are always useful!

These 5 chores are essential to spring cleaning A

h, spring cleaning. All the tasks you pushed aside earlier in the year now await you — a seemingly never-ending list of chores. However, not everyone has the time or energy to scrub their house from top to bottom. For those who need to abbreviate this seasonal ritual, housecleaners say the following areas are the most essential:

Baseboards “I think the thing people have the hardest time keeping up with is the baseboards,” says John Crum,

Can you tell me who made it? A: OB stands for Ostby & Barton Co. a jewelry firm that worked from 1880 to the 1950s. Englehart C. Ostby was born in Norway, moved to the United States, and by 1879, had joined with Nathan B. Barton to form a jewelry company. The firm was so successful it became the country’s largest jewelry manufacturer and the largest ring makers in the world. In 1912, Ostbys, Barton and his 22-year-old daughter Helen went on a trip to Europe to vacation and to buy precious stones for the company. They changed

owner of Crum Cleaning in Kansas City, Missouri. To clean your baseboards, first vacuum or sweep the area. Then, take a cloth or sponge and a cleaning solution — a combination of soap and water, vinegar or a wood cleaner — and wipe down the baseboards.

According to Crum, homeowners often forget to dust ceiling lights and fans because they’re out of reach. Others may choose not to clean them because the job sometimes requires a ladder.

Maria Keashon, owner of Arbor Cleaning Services in Feasterville, Pennsylvania, adds that homeowners forget to clean off the top of their kitchen cabinets. “With kitchen cabinets, you normally see people put plants and decorations up there,” she says. “They never even think of going up there (to clean).” Keashon says her company always cleans cabinet tops when completing a spring cleaning, as dust accumulates quickly. Those who don’t want to climb atop a ladder can purchase a longer dusting wand made specifically for

High dusting

Walls Crum says walls are another neglected space when it comes to cleaning house. However, homeowners face more challenges when washing walls because the proper method can vary based on whether walls are painted and the paint type used. If you don’t know what type of paint adorns your walls, you’re best off using dish soap and water to softly wipe them down. This also works for walls that aren’t painted, such as

Inside the cabinets

According to Crum, many people neglect the harder-to-reach areas, such as behind the refrigerator, oven, washer and dryer, because they take more time to clean. But once a year, you should take the extra time to move your appliances and clean behind and underneath them, as dirt, crumbs and dust accumulate in these places. If you have a cat, it’s possible you may find bread

Keashon says that most people assume the inside of their cabinets remain perfectly clean because they’re only opened to remove or put away dishes. However, these areas collect grime over time. She recommends removing all dishes and wiping down the cabinets once a year. Kaley Belakovich is a writer for Angie’s List, www. angieslist.com, a resource for consumer reviews.

Collectors search for pieces of O & B jewelry partly because of Nathan’s newsworthy death and partly because of the quality of the jewelry.

Should I keep looking for them in antiques shops or just give up? A: The best place to find four-eyed bottle openers is at a flea market or online. They are not as old as you think. Four-eyed bottle openers like this were made by Wilton Products, a company in business in Wrightsville, Pennsylvania, from about 1935 to 1989. The company decorated cast iron bottle openers, banks, trivets and other novelty items made by Susquehanna Castings, a company operated by the Wilton family, beginning in 1892. Several different

Abusive grandma needs a good talking to

DAILY CROSSWORD

Adapted from a recent online discussion. Dear Carolyn: About a month ago I caught my mother being physically and verbally abusive to my kids, whom she had been watching daily while I work from home. After we fought about it, she left my home, and I haven’t seen or talked to her since. I’m horrified, both by her actions and that it took me a while to catch on (well, when you grow up with it, I guess it’s hard to recognize). My kids don’t want to see her again. My mother is apparently waiting for an apology from me for getting mad at her. And I just don’t know what to say. She does not accept blame, or criticism, or questioning anything she says. But my beloved brother is coming to visit next week, so I owe it to him at least to try and talk to her, but what do I say? How do I try and get my mom to understand why I’m upset and to listen to me for probably the first time ever? — Horrified Why do you owe this to your brother? Seems to me there’s a break in the logic there. What just happened to you and your kids, the latter especially, is traumatic, and while your concern for your brother is generous and kind, he’s not your top priority

of the problem, and because you aren’t sure of yourself (yet) in handling it, please do all of this under the long-overdue guidance of a competent family therapist.

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT here. The kids are. Figuring out why it took you so long to see your mom’s abuse, to the point of exposing your kids to it, is also more important than your brother and his visit. You’re responding, classically, by trying to keep the peace, which can be a generous impulse in a healthy family but a self-sabotaging one in a family with an abuser at the helm. Do not negate yourself — not for your brother, not for your mother. Instead, find the strength to spell out for your mother what behavior you find unacceptable, using specific examples. Explain that if and when you decide to allow her around the children again, visits will be supervised — maybe forever, but for at least as long as it takes her to both admit and demonstrate there are lines she cannot cross. Because of the serious nature

Re: Abusive grandmother: No, you owe it to your kids to save them from her. My mother knew my grandmother was very verbally and emotionally abusive. But she decided she owed it to a lot of other people to keep the relationship with my grandmother, and said we did too. Never mind what she owed us. Forgive yourself for not knowing up until now, but from here on out it is up to you to protect your kids. — Anonymous Yes, yes. And to protect him- or herself. A grandma who can raise her hand to children and still see herself as the victim is not going to accept this new edict quietly. And since Horrified’s mother is going to push back against these new limits, hard and angry, Horrified can only protect the children by learning to stand up to that pressure.

Daughter needs to learn how to shave legs Dear Abby: My husband and I are having a disagreement about one of our daughters (we have three). Our 8-year-old is very hairy. It is noticeable, and she doesn’t like wearing shorts, skirts or dresses because of it. Her classmates tease her about it. I want to teach her how to shave her legs or show her how to use hair remover. Her father is angry that I want to “do this” to his little girl. I was a hairy child as well, and I was teased about my hairy legs and my unibrow, which my parents wouldn’t let me shave or pluck. I remember how painful it was, how upset it made me and how different I felt from my classmates because of it. I told myself as a child that when I grew up, I’d never let my daughter go through the same torment. Should we wait a few more years, or should I buy the products I need and teach her what she’ll be doing for the rest of her life? — Hairy Situation In Arizona Dear H.S.: Your husband may mean well, but he may not realize what being the object of ridicule can do to a little girl’s self-esteem. You’re that child’s mother, and you know what to do — so do it. Dear Abby: After 26 years of marriage, I recently left my husband. We live only a few blocks away from each other, so we run into each other often. My problem is more about running into some of the women he cheated on me with. One of them always ends up at the same shopping center or restaurant I happen to be at. She thinks I don’t know who she is. RIP HAYWIRE

It is not impolite to ASK people who cough and sneeze to please cover their mouth so you won’t catch what they have, and that’s what you should have done right away, or ask to change your seat if an unoccupied one was available.

From left, director alex Gibney, sara Bernstein, senior vice president of programming for hBO Documentaries, and author/producer lawrence Wright attend the premiere of “Going Clear: scientology and the Prison of Belief” in Park City, utah, in January.

Scientology film seen by millions on HBO If the Church of Scientology was hoping that HBO’s withering documentary on the religion’s practices would pass by with little notice, that turned out to be a miscalculation. “Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief” has been seen by more than 5.5 million people since its debut two weeks ago. It is likely to wind up being second only to a 2013 movie on Beyonce as the premium cable network’s mostwatched documentary of the past decade, HBO said Monday. The Church of Scientology ran a full-page advertisement in The New York Times denouncing the film before it ran, questioning whether “Going Clear” would turn out to be like Rolling Stone magazine’s

since-retracted story about an alleged sexual assault at the University of Virginia. “I didn’t think we expected this kind of noise and this kind of energy, but we’ll take it,” said Sheila Nevins, the veteran chief of HBO’s documentary unit. “I didn’t think it would be this controversial.” Director Alex Gibney made “Going Clear,” based on the book by Lawrence Wright. Gibney also did “Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God,” an investigation into sex abuse in the Catholic Church, for HBO. Although “Going Clear” details church attempts to respond aggressively to people questioning their practices, Nevins said she was surprised at how church lawyers and officials questioned the film and HBO before it aired. “I really thought they would be smart to keep their mouths shut and let it go by,” she said.

Comeback tour planned for ‘Guitar Hero’ By Derrik J. Lang Associated Press

Activision Blizzard Inc. announced plans Tuesday to resurrect “Guitar Hero,” the once-popular video game franchise that involved players rhythmically tapping guitar-shaped controllers along to music. The new entry scheduled for release this fall is titled “Guitar Hero Live” and introduces a redesigned guitar, live-action actors and an online music video network to the series. “We said we would bring it back when we’ve got true innovation,” said Jamie Jackson, creative director at “Guitar Hero Live” developer FreeStyleGames, who previously worked on “Sing Party” and the “DJ Hero” series. “We wouldn’t have come back if we didn’t think we were giving you a new experience. We genuinely feel like we’ve nailed it with innovation.” “Guitar Hero Live” will cast players as an up-and-coming guitarist in a fictitious band. Instead of playing along with computer-generated characters on screen, wannabe rockers will see a first-person view of their band mates and audiences portrayed by human actors. The virtual crowd will boo or cheer

players on, depending if they’re hitting the right notes. “We want you to feel like a rock star again,” said Jackson. “We want to put you on stage, whether it’s in front of 100 people, 1,000 people or 100,000 people. We want you to experience what it feels like to perform on stage. That’s why we’ve turned the camera around and made it first person. As we were working on this, we actually code-named it ‘Stage Fright.”’ Despite featuring music from such artists as the Rolling Stones, Ed

Sheeran and Green Day, “Guitar Hero Live” will forgo digital likenesses of real musicians in favor of actors portraying phony band members. Jackson declined to specify why the game’s made-up acts would sound just like such real-world bands as the Black Keys, Fall Out Boy and the Killers. FreeStyleGames’ other major switch-up is adding another row of buttons to the top of the guitar’s neck. They eliminated the series’ color-coded, five-button system in favor of mirroring icons displayed on screen, with

guitar picks pointing up and down. Jackson said the new six-button configuration would provide veteran players with a bigger challenge. “When you come back to something as muchloved as ‘Guitar Hero’ and start (expletive) with it, people get a bit nervous,” noted Jackson. “The first time even I saw it, I wondered if we were trying to reinvent the wheel, but I remember when we were playing with the prototype, I was thinking, ‘Holy (expletive). There’s something here.’ It proved itself.”

Chaplin was born in London. In 1912, American aviator Harriet Quimby became the first woman to fly across the English Channel, leaving Dover, England, and arriving near Calais, France, in 59 minutes. In 1940, Major League Baseball’s first (and, to date, only) opening day no-hitter took place as Bob Feller of the Cleveland Indians pitched a no-no against the Chicago White Sox, 1-0, at Comiskey Park. In 1963, Martin Luther King Jr. wrote his “Letter

from Birmingham Jail” in which he said, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” In 1972, Apollo 16 blasted off on a voyage to the moon with astronauts John W. Young, Charles M. Duke Jr. and Ken Mattingly on board. In 2007, in the deadliest shooting rampage in modern U.S. history, student Seung-Hui Cho (sung-wee joh) killed 32 people on the campus of Virginia Tech before taking his own life.
