3 die in Twisp wildfire South Snohomish coach Fred Miller

Coach: Series rules ‘crazy’ By David Krueger Herald Writer

PORTLAND, Ore. — Fred Miller was just trying to get his team to the semifinals of the Little League Softball World Series. When he rested four starters and saw his team lose 8-0 to a team from Salisbury, North Carolina, on Monday, he didn’t envision his actions making national headlines. Now, the embattled coach is calling on Little League International to change its tie-breaking criteria so that coaches don’t have to worry about run-ratio formulas and can focus on coaching. “It’s just unfortunate Little League has a tie-breaking system like they do,” Miller said. “When coaches have to study run-rule ratios and understand them, it takes away from coaching a game. The way the rule is set, it’s crazy. We literally could’ve lost 30-0 in that game against (North Carolina) and got in (the semifinals), but if we lose 3-2, we’re out. How does that work?” South Snohomish’s 8-0 loss gave North Carolina the No. 1 seed from Pool B because North Carolina had the best runsallowed ratio of the three teams that finished tied for the top spot in the pool — North Carolina (3-1), Washington (3-1) and Iowa (3-1). A head-to-head tiebreaker then gave South Snohomish the edge over Iowa. However, Iowa head coach Charlie Husak accused Miller and South Snohomish of intentionally losing to keep his team out of the semifinals.

Wind-whipped blaze claims three firefighters, advances on towns By Nicholas K. Geranios and Gene Johnson Associated Press

TWISP — Three firefighters were killed and three to four others were injured, at least one critically, as raging wildfires advanced on towns in north-central Washington on Wednesday, authorities said. Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers said the deaths, in a wildfire near Twisp, had been confirmed, but he said he was not immediately releasing specific details about the circumstances or the victims, pending notification of their families. “It was a hellstorm up here,”

he told KXLY-TV of Spokane. “The fire was racing and the winds were blowing in every direction and then it would shift. ... It was tough on ’em up here.” One firefighter had been taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle in critical condition, a nursing supervisor there said. In an emailed statement, the White House said President Barack Obama had been apprised of the deaths. He

They gave their lives to protect others. It was their calling, but the loss for their families is immense.” The news came after officials urged people in the popular outdoor-recreation centers of Twisp and Wintrop to evacuate as a fire near Twisp grew to about 2 square miles.

To the south, more than 1,100 firefighters were battling a fire that topped 108 square miles and was still threatening the resort town of Chelan. Angela Seydel, a spokeswoman for Okanogan Emergency Management, said Wednesday evening that 4,000 homes in the region had been evacuated. “It is really bad out there. The fires have just exploded,” she said. “We’re just directing everybody to head south.” A stream of cars poured south out of Twisp as dark smoke clouds loomed; the highway to the north was closed. Some people put sprinklers on their roofs in an effort to protect their homes, and others joined lines for gasoline that were several cars deep.

Bob Hudlow, who has been the tournament director at the Softball World Series for the past five years, talked with Little League International officials in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and they decided Washington and Iowa would play an extra game for the final semifinal berth. South Snohomish protested the decision, but lost. Iowa won the playin game 3-2 Tuesday morning. “I, as part of the process, worked with the national committee back in Williamsport and we made the right decision,” Hudlow said. “We made the decision to have them play a play-in game so everyone participated, it was won on the field and we moved on from that. I still wholeheartedly believe that’s the right choice.” Miller said he would prefer a double-elimination tournament. “Little League needs

to change their rules for softball and make it a double-elimination tournament because then there’s no run-rule ratios,” Miller said. “They’ve done it for the boys, so why do the girls have pool play? It doesn’t make any sense.” Little League International Director of Media Relations Brian McClintock said there are no plans to adjust the format of the Little League Softball World Series as a result of what happened with the South Snohomish team. “We always look at all of our tournaments across the boards and see if there are ways to make them run smoother,” McClintock said. “We take into account every tournament that we have. We learn a lot at all of them every year.” The stress of the national media attention following Monday’s game took its toll on Miller, whose team decided to return to Snohomish after its final game Wednesday afternoon, a 4-1 victory over Uganda, and skip the tournament’s closing ceremonies. Among other things, the South Snohomish players had to deal with hostility

from opposing fans, Miller said. “It’s been a grind,” Miller said. “Parents and fans leaving notes on our doors, on the girls’ doors, banging on our girls’ doors in the middle of the night trying to wake us up. Speaking under their breath when the kids walk by — it’s been tough. “I’m tired. I’m

exhausted. All those events, I didn’t sleep for two days,” he continued. “It’s been a learning experience and, you know, you just move on.” The coach of the Washington state and West Region champions expressed pride in the way his team finished its tournament run, beating

Uganda to claim fifth place. “It’s always good to get a win in the final game,” Miller said. “Obviously, it wasn’t the game we were wanting to play today, but that’s just the way it goes. … I’m just super proud of my team. My girls played through adversity down here and they fought to the end.”

neighbors and Mukilteo city officials Tuesday evening to try to reduce the odors. Neighbors say the smell varies in intensity from day to day, but seems to worsen with hot temperatures and onshore breezes. “It’s hard to get people to understand how bad it is unless they’ve experienced it first hand,” said Kevin Stoltz, who lives upwind from the demolition site. Misting is expected to start next week, Brian Mannion, a ferry service spokesman, said Wednesday. Plans also call for covering a nearby barge the pilings are being loaded onto. “This is the only project that anyone’s aware of that’s generated these odor complaints,” he said. “We’re taking innovative steps to deal with it.” Terry Preshaw, who lives

uphill from the demolition project, said the odors have caused burning in her throat and eyes. She said she’s pleased that the ferry system is listening to neighborhood concerns and taking steps to mitigate the fumes. “That said, if this doesn’t get better, we’re going to have to ask them to cease operations if these measures do not improve our situation,” she said. The pilings are being removed with a device called a vibration hammer. While the machine minimizes disturbance to sediment, the friction caused by the device can heat the pilings and the creosote they contain, Altose said. “If it’s warm enough, it can release vapors,” he said. The ferry system asked for approval to use a mister on

the pilings as they’re being extracted “so the nuisance odors are stopped,” Altose said. Air sampling was conducted Monday at the construction site and in the surrounding neighborhood at the request of the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency, after an employee was sent to investigate odor complaints last week. A Seattle firm, NVL Laboratories, is conducting the air sampling with initial results expected next week. The air sampling was conducted for four hours and is expected to cost about $5,000, Mannion said. “We’re looking to see what the results are,” he said. “If we need to come back, we will come back.” Preshaw said she’s concerned that samples weren’t taken when the

fumes were most intense. Stoltz said that even if testing shows the fumes don’t pose a health risk, the odors are having an effect on neighbors. “If you have a home in that situation, it’s a huge concern,” he said. The piling and pier removal project is scheduled to continue until February 2016. There will be a six-month pause so as to not interfere with fish migrations, then work is scheduled to resume again in August. The demolition project is expected to be completed in February 2017. Construction on the new terminal is expected to begin in 2017 and its scheduled to open in 2019. Sharon Salyer: 425-3393486; salyer@heraldnet. com.

Tribes gain access to criminal databases By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — Federal officials on Wednesday launched a program that will allow tribes access to national criminal databases and fix a system that allowed a man to buy a gun that was later used by his son to kill four classmates and himself at Marysville Pilchuck High School. Raymond Fryberg was the subject of a 2001 domestic violence restraining order issued by a Tulalip Tribal Court, which should have kept him from buying a firearm, but the restraining order was never sent to the federal criminal database used to check criminal histories during firearm purchases because of a breakdown in information sharing between tribes and outside authorities. Fryberg’s 15-year-old son, Jaylen, shot the students and himself

on Oct. 24, 2014. The Tribal Access Program for National Crime Information, or TAP, will allow federally recognized tribes to enter criminal records into and pull information out of national databases overseen by the Criminal Justice Information Services Division of the FBI. The program was announced during a conference hosted by the Department of Justice and the FBI held in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Justice officials said the mass shooting by Jaylen Fryberg at Marysville Pilchuck High School last October drove home the importance of getting an effective system in place for all tribes. “Empowering tribal law enforcement with information strengthens public safety and is a key element in our ongoing strategy to build safe and healthy communities in Indian country,” Deputy Attorney General Sally

Quillian Yates said. “The Tribal Access Program is a step forward to providing tribes the access they need to protect their communities, keep guns from falling into the wrong hands, assist victims, and prevent domestic and sexual violence.” Michelle Demmert, a Tulalip Tribes attorney who was at the conference in Oklahoma, said they’ve spent years working with federal officials to identify gaps in the criminal database system and this announcement seems to say “the Department of Justice and the Office of Tribal Justice has heard the tribe’s voice.” “The TAP program will reinforce the Tulalip Tribes’ commitment to using available tools to protect its community,” Demmert told The Associated Press in an email.

Lovick’s outlook brighter for county By Noah Haglund Herald Writer

EVERETT — Snohomish County Executive John Lovick gives a sunnier outlook for county finances than the gloom that other officials forecast last month. A memo Lovick sent to the County Council and news outlets Wednesday touts the county’s low unemployment rate, strong bond rating and a “high quality of life to those who choose to live, work and play here.” “We’re having the same challenges that every other county is having and we’re addressing them,” Lovick said. Lovick’s letter does acknowledge the county faces real financial challenges. And some, such as the cost of responding to the Oso mudslide, are unique. Others issues include the potential loss of $5 million in yearly tax revenue from businesses at Quil Ceda Village because of a pending lawsuit by the Tulalip Tribes, the imperiled courthouse project in downtown Everett, and rising costs for employee health care and wages. Lovick’s memo came a week after he clashed with council members over a new union contract. In his memo, Lovick said the council’s action threatens progress toward keeping employee health care costs in check. County Councilman Ken Klein criticized Lovick’s See COUNTY, Page A4

More than 100 people attend a candlelight vigil Wednesday night for the four victims of a Tuesday morning car crash in Tulalip. Family and friends, including members of the Tulalip and Swinomish tribes, sang, prayed and offered words of grief and hope.

4 young crash victims drowned By Eric Stevick Herald Writer

TULALIP — Drowning claimed the lives of four young people who died after a pickup truck left the road and went into a hatchery pond on the Tulalip Indian Reservation early Tuesday morning. The Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office on Wednesday identified the four as Ariela Vendiola, 15, of Marysville; Lynnishia Larson, 16, of Marysville; Tyson D. Walker, 21, of Tulalip; and Dylan Monger, 22, of Tulalip. All had attended local schools, according to Marysville School District records.

Vendiola and Larson were enrolled to attend Marysville Pilchuck High School for their junior year this fall. Monger last attended Marysville Arts and Technology High School and Walker had attended the Academy of Construction and Engineering at Marysville Getchell High School. “We are grieving today over the devastating loss of four young people, all current or former students in our district,” school district Superintendent Becky Berg said. “We extend our support and sympathy to all of their families. This is yet another reminder of how fragile life is and how we

must again bond together as a community,” Berg said. As dusk fell Wednesday, more than 100 people gathered near the accident scene to light candles, sing and remember those lost. Family members came from throughout the Tulalip and Swinomish communities. The fence along the bridge over the pond was decked out with balloons and flowers. The accident was reported around 3:30 a.m. Tuesday. A caller reported that a pickup truck had crashed near the 7500 block of Totem Beach Road. The truck went over a concrete barrier and landed in a tribal fish-rearing pond.

The sheriff’s Collision Investigation Unit will reconstruct what happened. Such investigations often take six months to a year before findings are shared. The crash and the subsequent recovery of the truck wiped out several sections of 4-foot-high cyclone fence, leaving a 33-foot gap. The pickup landed atop netting designed to protect the hatchery fish from birds. It could not bear the weight of the truck, which became submerged.

Tribes: Children in need of foster care also will be helped From Page A3

the National Conference of American Indians, the oldest and largest organization of American Indian and Alaska Native tribes, said the plan “responds to a long-standing public safety concern in Indian Country.” “Today’s announcement is an encouraging step, and we hope that the new DOJ Tribal Access Program will lead to real change and meaningful solutions,” he

wrote in an email. “The safety of our communities depends on it.” In addition to letting tribes submit data, it will also allow them to conduct background checks when a tribe needs to place a child with a foster parent in an emergency situation — another area tribes have longsought to have fixed. Taking that a step further, the Bureau of Indian Affairs announced at the conference that it and the Office

of Justice Services have created another program that will give tribal social service agencies 24-hour access to criminal history records to ensure the safe placement of children in foster care. Demmert praised that move, saying the Tulalip Tribes are “encouraged that our ability to protect our most vulnerable population — children — in times of crisis will be assisted with this work-around issue to access name-based

criminal history records when children need to be placed out of the home.” Francesca Hillary, spokeswoman for the Tulalip Tribes, has said tribes have been asking for a system to access the national databases for years. Justice officials said they’ve been working with tribes to resolve the roadblocks that kept a system from working effectively. The FBI oversees a justice information services system in all 50 states.

The system includes the National Crime Information Center, used by law enforcement to get data on stolen property, wanted people, sex offenders; and the National Instant Criminal Background Check System, used by Federal Firearms Licensees during gun purchases. To date, the systems have been available to federal, state and local law enforcement but not to all tribes. The new TAP program will support and train

tribes as they connect with the system. Once established, they’ll be able to use the databases in the same way as outside law enforcement. Raymond Fryberg has been charged in federal court with six counts of illegally buying 10 guns during a period when he was prohibited from having firearms. On Wednesday, his trial was moved from Aug. 31 to Sept. 21, according to the U.S. Attorney’s office.

Cornfield: Supreme Court’s $100K-a-day fine steals spotlight From Page A3

Duncan had warned he would revoke the waiver unless state law was changed to require the use of student test scores in evaluating teachers. That set off a fierce fight involving lawmakers, Gov. Jay Inslee and Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn. Most Democrats and a few Republican lawmakers opposed the change. So, too, did the Washington

Education Association, the powerful statewide teacher’s union. Inslee and Dorn met with Duncan in Washington, D.C. to gauge his resolve. They returned with determination to preserve the waiver, crafting what they hoped to be a compromise bill. It never earned a vote. After Duncan kept his word and yanked the waiver, 1,916 schools sent out the so-called failing school letters. Only 260

schools didn’t because their students met the standards. Among them were Cedar Wood Elementary in Everett, Index Elementary School, Heritage High School in Tulalip and Lincoln Academy in Stanwood. The letters are attracting less attention this year. That’s partly due to the commotion caused by the Supreme Court’s $100,000a-day fine against the state for lawmakers not turning in a plan to ensure ample

funding for schools by a 2018 deadline. Another reason is that lawmakers, the governor and the state schools chief did not battle as long or as loudly on getting the waiver back in the long legislative session. Sen. Steve Litzow, R-Mercer Island, did push a bill to revise the teacher evaluation system. It never gained traction as complying with McCleary grabbed his colleagues’ focus. Then interest waned as a

rewrite of the No Child Left Behind law drafted by Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., made its way through the U.S. Senate. As written, it would do away with waivers — and the letters would stop — if it reaches the president’s desk. Still, sending out the letters really torques Dorn. On Monday, when he released results of Smarter Balanced Assessments, he declared that while there continues to be gaps in achievement among ethnic

groups at each grade level, overall “learning actually went up. The rigor actually went up.” Those letters express a different message and one that can cause unnecessary confusion and worry for parents, he said. But like underfunding, they’re a burden borne by public schools until those making the laws figure things out. Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.

More pot-impaired drivers in deadly crashes in state SEATTLE — More marijuana-using drivers are getting into fatal crashes in Washington, according to new data from the state Traffic Safety Commission. Data released Tuesday show that the number of Washington drivers involved in deadly crashes who tested positive for

active marijuana doubled from 2013 to 2014 — the first year of legal marijuana sales in the state. Commission member Shelly Baldwin said that’s alarming — especially considering that the number of alcohol-related fatal crashes has been dropping. “When we see this rising trend, it’s concerning, especially when other

factors are decreasing,” Baldwin said. The number of drivers involved in fatal crashes who tested positive for active THC, the main psychoactive compound in marijuana, had held fairly steady from 2010 to 2013 — between 32 and 38 per year. That number jumped to 75 in 2014, and about

Witnesses provided a description of the suspect vehicle. A deputy with a police dog in his patrol car spotted the vehicle and gave chase southbound on I-5. Mountlake Terrace police deployed a “spike strip” that punctured one of the suspect’s vehicle’s tires, slowing the car. The pursuit ended when the car exited I-5 at 145th

NE Street, which is the border between Shoreline and Seattle, and crashed into the Jackson Park Golf Course on the Seattle side. The two suspects ran. The deputy and police dog tracked and captured one of them. The suspect, 31, was booked in the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of burglary and robbery. The search for the second suspect was suspended around 5:30 a.m. Everett police confirmed with the burglary victims that the suspects stole an AR-15 rifle.

The two Democrats are set to face off Nov. 3. In his role as council chairman, Somers last month demanded that Lovick’s administration answer a series of budget questions. Lovick’s memo is a response. Somers said he felt a sense of urgency because of looming votes that would have gotten construction under way on a new $162 million county courthouse. The council postponed taking action on the courthouse. Construction was supposed to begin this month, but that now appears doubtful. Courthouse plans may be

shelved for now or resurrected as a less expensive plan. Council members could choose to move the building to a site other than the one where they’d condemned a half-dozen businesses to make space. The Everett City Council also has balked at approving a parking agreement the county needs before starting construction. “Frankly, it’s in the hands of the city of Everett right now,” Lovick said of the courthouse project. About three-quarters of the county budget goes to fund the criminal justice system. The county’s current operating budget is $226 million. Number crunchers Wednesday projected it could be overspent $2.7 million by year’s end if adjustments aren’t made. Noah Haglund: 425339-3465, nhaglund@ heraldnet.com.

No church? Woman fired The Kansas City Star KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A lawsuit filed against the Kansas secretary of state’s office in federal court alleges that Assistant Secretary of State Eric Rucker fired a woman because she would not attend a Christian religious service. Courtney Canfield, who previously worked as a business-filing specialist at the secretary of state’s office, alleges that she was fired from her job in 2013 because she did not attend a prayer service. The complaint, filed in

federal court earlier this month, says Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach’s assistant invited Canfield to attend a service that would held at the secretary of state’s office by Dave DePue, a minister who serves as unofficial pastor of the Kansas Capitol. “These invitations were distributed during normal business hours and included a ‘prayer guide’ to be utilized at that week’s service. Despite the repeated invitations, Plaintiff never attended such a service,” the lawsuit states. “While Plaintiff was a Methodist, she did

not regularly attend church services or otherwise practice any particular religious beliefs in any way.” The complaint says Rucker was aware of her lack of religious participation. The lawsuit alleges that the assistant secretary of state visited the home of Canfield’s grandmother, who worked for the Kansas Republican Party, in November 2013 and informed her of the plans to terminate Canfield’s employment. “Mr. Rucker repeatedly and emphatically indicated a basis

for her termination as the fact that, ‘She just doesn’t go to church,’” the lawsuit alleges. Canfield was then officially told her employment had been terminated three days later, on Nov. 18, 2013. She is suing for $75,000 in damages, alleging that she was fired on the basis of her lack of religious participation, in violation of the U.S. Civil Rights Act. Rucker and the office are defendants in the lawsuit. The secretary of state’s office did not immediately comment on the lawsuit when asked Wednesday afternoon.

As pumps run, California sinks NASA data shows land near the city of Corcoran sank 13 inches in eight months. Associated Press FRESNO, Calif. — Vast areas of California’s Central Valley are sinking faster than in the past as massive amounts of groundwater are pumped during the historic drought, state officials said Wednesday, citing new research by NASA scientists. The data shows the ground is sinking nearly two inches each month in some places, putting roads, bridges and vital canals that deliver water throughout the state at growing risk of damage. Sinking land has occurred for decades in California because of excessive groundwater pumping during dry years, but the new data shows it is happening faster as the state endures its fourth year of drought. “We are pumping at historic levels,” said Mark Cowin, head of the California Department of Water Resources. He added that groundwater levels are dropping to record levels — up to 100 feet lower than previously recorded. Scientists at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory did the research using images taken over time from satellites and airplanes. California is the nation’s leading agriculture state, but drought has put one-fifth more land out of production this year than last year. Gov. Jerry Brown signed historic legislation last year that

2nd Yosemite visitor contracts the plague LOS ANGELES — The state Department of Public Health is investigating a second case of plague likely contracted by a Georgia native on a recent visit to Yosemite National Park. Tests are under way to confirm the person contracted the disease while vacationing in early August at the park, the Sierra National Forest and surrounding area. The health department has contacted the park, the National Forest Service and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to examine areas where the person visited. The latest case of plague comes nearly two weeks after health officials announced a child had contracted it while visiting the park with family in mid-July.

Theater chain checking bags Movie theater chain Regal Entertainment Group has begun to check bags in response to shootings at theaters around the country, a procedure it acknowledged on its website was “not without flaws” and would inconvenience guests but provide better security. It’s unclear when the policy began, but several local TV stations reported online that customers noticed the change in Texas, Virginia, Florida and Ohio beginning earlier this month. A Regal spokesman did not respond to requests for comment Wednesday.

CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF WATER RESOURCES

This bridge over a canal in Firebaugh, California, seen on July 23, has sunk until there’s almost no space between bottom of bridge deck and the water’s surface.

As long as this continues, we risk further damage to roads, levees and buildings. — Lester Snow, California Water Foundation

requires monitoring of groundwater pumping. However, local officials have until 2020 and in some cases until 2022 to write and enforce their plans, so it could take another decade or two before California has a handle on groundwater use, Cowin said. “I don’t think we can end overdraft or subsidence overnight,” he said. “We do need to take action.” Meanwhile, the Department of Water Resources is launching

a $10 million program to help counties with stressed groundwater basins to develop or strengthen local ordinances and conservation plans. The NASA data showed land near the city of Corcoran sank 13 inches in eight months, and part of the California Aqueduct dropped eight inches in four months last year. The aqueduct spans hundreds of miles and provides water to million people and about vast areas of farmland.

Long-term subsidence has already destroyed thousands of public and private groundwater well casings in the San Joaquin Valley. Over time, subsidence can permanently reduce the underground aquifer’s water storage capacity. Lester Snow, executive director of the California Water Foundation, which promotes water policy, urged more immediate action. He said state and federal officials should also offer local agencies financial incentives to reduce reliance on groundwater. Investments are also needed in storm water capture during wet winters to offset heavy reliance on groundwater, Snow said. “As long as this continues, we risk further damage to roads, levees and buildings,” he said. “There is no time to waste.”

Few know of pope’s climate views Associated Press A new survey has found fewer than half of U.S. Roman Catholics said they knew of Pope Francis’ bombshell encyclical on curbing climate change — and only a fraction of those heard about it from the pulpit — in the month after he released the document with an unprecedented call for the church to take up his message. Forty percent of American Catholics and 31 percent of all adults said they were aware of the encyclical, according to the poll by The Associated PressNORC Center for Public Affairs Research and Yale University. Among Catholics who knew about the document, just 23 percent said they heard about it at Mass. The survey, conducted July 17-19, provides an early measure of the impact of the encyclical in the U.S., where Francis is expected to press his teaching on the environment in his first visit to the country next month. The U.S. is home to some of the staunchest objectors to mainstream science on climate change and to government

ACROSS THE U.S.

L’OSSERVATORE ROMANO

Pope Francis speaks during his general audience at the Vatican on Wednesday.

intervention aimed at easing global warming, along with a segment of Catholics who think the pope should be talking far more about marriage and abortion than the environment. In the encyclical, released June 18, Francis called global warming a largely manmade problem driven by overconsumption, a “structurally perverse” economic system and an unfettered pursuit of profit that exploited the poor and risked turning the Earth into an “immense pile

of filth.” He urged people of all faiths and no faith to save God’s creation for future generations. But questions arose about whether American bishops and parishioners would embrace the message with any enthusiasm. While the bishops for decades have issued statements calling environmental protection a religious duty for Catholics, the issue has not been atop their public agenda. For years, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops has focused its resources on upholding marriage as the union of a man and a woman, seeking religious exemptions from laws the bishops consider immoral, fighting abortion and clergy sex abuse, and bringing back fallen-away Catholics. Climate change activists had hoped Francis’ rock-star popularity would amplify his views. But a recent Gallup poll found double-digit drops in his favorability, fueled mainly by conservatives who think he has gone too far with his reforms and liberals who believe he hasn’t gone far enough. Terry Majewski, 67, a Pensacola, Florida, resident who said he attends Mass weekly,

said he has heard no preaching about the encyclical at his church. He’s glad he hasn’t. Majewski thinks highly of the pope, but disagrees with his position on global warming and wishes the pontiff hadn’t taken up the issue. In the survey, about two-thirds of Catholics said it was appropriate for Francis to take a position on global warming, and 55 percent of all adults agreed. The AP-NORC poll found 62 percent of Catholics and 39 percent of Americans overall had a somewhat or very favorable view of Francis. One-third of Catholics and nearly half of all adults said they didn’t know enough about the pope to form an opinion. In the survey, Catholics held views of global warming in line with the general public. About three-quarters of Catholics and 69 percent of all adults said global warming is happening. About half of both groups say climate change is mostly or entirely man-made, while 46 percent of Catholics and 38 percent of all adults blame a mix of human activity and natural changes in the environment.

Yvonne Craig, who played the sexy, crime-fighting Batgirl in the 1960s TV hit “Batman,” has died. She was 78. Craig died Monday at her Los Angeles home from complications from breast cancer, her family said. She was best known as Batgirl (and her alter ego, librarian Barbara Gordon, Commissioner Gordon’s daughter) in the 1967-68 season of ABC’s “Batman.” Another memorable TV role, from an episode of the original “Star Trek”: the green Orion Slave Girl who wanted to kill Captain Kirk.

D.C.: Pink pill payments Health insurers are grappling with the question of whether to cover the new pink pill to treat low libido in women, which will hit pharmacy shelves this year with a prominent warning label for serious side effects such as fainting. Anthem Inc., the third-largest health insurer in the country, said Wednesday it will cover Sprout Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s Addyi in many cases. Insurer Cigna Corp. and drug benefits managers including Express Scripts Holding Co. and CVS Health Corp. said they’ll evaluate what to do over the next few weeks.

Utah: Women appointed The Mormon church for the first time has appointed women to three high-level church councils previously reserved only for men — a move scholars and Latter-day Saint feminists said marks a small, but noteworthy step in an ongoing push to increase visibility and prominence of women in the faith. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints announced the appointments Tuesday evening of three high-ranking women to committees that make key policy decisions for a faith of 15 million worldwide members.

Michigan: Flamethrowers A city official is trying to extinguish the use of personal flamethrowers, which are being sold online by two companies, in his city.

AROUND THE WORLD Egypt: New terrorism law A sweeping new counterterrorism law erodes basic rights and defines terrorism so broadly that it could encompass civil disobedience and be used to stifle dissent, Human Rights Watch said Wednesday in a scathing report. The New York-based group said the law, passed by President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi last weekend, gives prosecutors greater power to detain suspects without judicial review and order wide-ranging and potentially indefinite surveillance of terror suspects without a court order.

Wiring blamed for 787 fire The Air Accidents Investigations Branch blames a short circuit for a London blaze on the Boeingbuilt Dreamliner. Associated Press LONDON — British aviation investigators reported Wednesday that a 2013 fire on a Boeing 787 Dreamliner started in a battery for the plane’s emergency locator transmitter — a finding that triggered recommendations to improve safety on similar battery-powered equipment on planes. The Air Accidents Investigations Branch said in a report that crossed and trapped wires under

the battery compartment created a short circuit on the Ethiopian Airlines-operated plane parked

at London’s Heathrow Airport on July 12, 2013. The fire then spread to the

fuselage, which is made of composite material. Among the recommendations, the branch said the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration, together with similar bodies in Europe and Canada, should conduct a review of equipment powered by lithium metal batteries to ensure they have “an acceptable level of circuit protection.” Boeing said it stood by the 787’s overall integrity. “We are committed to a process of continual improvement of our airplanes and we will carefully review the AAIB’s recommendations, Boeing said. “It is important that any potential changes to the airplane’s design be reviewed with great care, and with due consideration for any potential unintended consequences of any change.”

New financial center for Everett Bellingham-based Peoples Bank has primarily operated out of Whatcom and Skagit counties. By Jim Davis

ARTIST’S CONCEPTION

Peoples Bank plans a new financial center at the corner of Colby and Everett avenues. The $3.4 million remodel of an existing building is expected to be complete by next summer.

Our plans in Everett represent our positive outlook on the market. — Tony Repanich, Peoples Bank executive vice president

Bank. Our investment downtown and on Evergreen Way demonstrates our commitment to that belief.”

Bellingham-based Peoples Bank has primarily operated out of Whatcom and Skagit counties, but started expanding about 14 years ago. They decided to bypass Snohomish County, opening their first branch in King County in 2001 and then a branch in Island County in 2004. “When we started moving further south at that time, Snohomish County was very well banked with a lot of strong community banks and credit unions,” Repanich said. “With the downturn, unfortunately, a lot of those community banks went away.” Their first branch in Snohomish County opened in Mill Creek in 2006. Since then, Peoples Bank

has opened a branch inside a Fred Meyer in Snohomish and a branch at 2733 Colby Ave. in Everett, just a block away from their planned financial center. Peoples Bank will move that existing branch on Colby into the new financial center. Afterward, the bank expects to employ 15 to 20 bankers at the site. It will house teams for commercial lending, investment services and home mortgages and also will feature a regional training center for bank employees. Peoples Bank has more than $1.3 billion in assets. The bank was founded in 1921 and operates 24 branches and three loan production offices located throughout Washington.

Everett area’s jobless rate dips to 3.7% Washington state’s unemployment rate was 5.3 percent in July, holding even with the national jobless rate, state officials said Wednesday. The latest report from the state’s Employment Security Department shows that the jobless rate was unchanged from June, and that the private sector gained 5,900 jobs from June to July. The jobless rate in the Everett-Seattle-Bellevue region of Western Washington was 3.7 percent, down from 3.8 percent in June. “Washington’s economy continues on a positive track,” said state labor economist Paul Turek. The financial activities sector saw the largest gains from June to July, with an increase of 2,600 jobs, followed by retail trade, which gained 1,700 jobs, and then leisure and hospitality, with 1,500 jobs.

Costco sued over shrimp farming Costco Wholesale was sued for selling farmed shrimp from Thailand, where slave labor and human trafficking in the fishing industry are widespread, and allegedly misleading U.S. consumers about it. A California woman filed what may be the first lawsuit for such liability tied to the Thai fishing industry Wednesday in San Francisco federal court. She cited state laws that bar companies from making false claims about illegal conduct in their supply chain, including human rights violations.

EVERETT — Peoples Bank plans to open a flagship financial center in downtown Everett by next summer, saying there’s a need in Snohomish County for their brand of communityminded banking. Construction is expected to begin this month on a $3.4 million renovation of an existing building at the corner of 2702 Colby Ave. The bank plans a complete renovation of two floors, adding exterior improvements including cladding, canopies and signage as well as landscaping and other changes. The project is expected to be complete by June 2016. In addition, Peoples Bank also opened last week a new branch at 6920 Evergreen Way, their fourth in the county. The planned flagship financial center and the new branch are important pieces of the bank’s long-term commitment to Everett and the county, said Tony Repanich, a Peoples Bank executive vice president, chief retail banking and marketing officer. “Our plans in Everett represent our positive outlook on the market,” he said. “We believe there is room for a sound, locally minded and service focused, community bank like Peoples

women that found 9 out of 10 make that decision on the fly. “Not only are working women spending money frequently on lunch, but they are making lastminute decision on where to go,” said Tara Peters, director of marketing at WorkPlace Impact. A 2012 survey by finance recruiting firm Accounting Principals found 50 percent of the American workforce spends an average $1,000 a year on coffee, with many shelling out twice as much for lunch. Two-thirds of those surveyed said they buy lunch instead of bring their own, spending an average of nearly $2,000 a year on the midday meal.

WorkPlace Impact focused its survey on women workers because the company’s clients — many of the nation’s leading restaurant brands — are interested in data related to women, who typically control many of the spending choices in the average American household. The online survey of 3,435 people conducted in late June and early July did not examine the lunching behavior of working men, but Peters said she could only assume that much of the data would also apply, although that is only an educated guess.

Audi plans jump into Telsa market Audi plans to challenge Telsa’s dominance of the luxury electric vehicle market when it introduces a sport-utility vehicle at the Frankfurt, Germany, auto show next month. Called the Audi e-tron quattro, the sporty SUV concept auto will provide the first look at the luxury brand’s plans for fully electric cars. Audi, a division of Volkswagen, is expected to produce an electric SUV based on the concept starting in 2018. Audi already makes plug-in hybrids, which run on electric power alone for a certain range until a gasoline engine kicks in. Like Tesla’s Model S sport sedan and its upcoming Model X crossover, the Audi SUV is designed from the ground up as an electric car.

Newark airport bans store sales of drones At least two stores at Newark Liberty International Airport are selling drones despite federal rules prohibiting flying them near airports. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey said it will demand the stores stop selling drones “immediately.” “The Port Authority shares the aviation community’s safety concerns about the growing presence of drones around the region’s airports and is strongly opposed to the sale of drones at terminal shops,” a Port Authority spokesman said. It was unclear whether there are any general limits on the sale of drones at an airport. From Herald news services

Management moves recently announced by Esterline Technologies do not directly affect its Everett-based division, Korry. The changes are limited to the diverse aerospace company’s corporate office in Bellevue, and are another example of Esterline’s newish CEO Curtis Reusser putting his stamp on the company. Last week, Esterline announced it was going from three so-called segment leaders down to two. Roger Ross was named president of its new Sensors and Systems segment, and Albert Yost

was named president of its Avionics and Controls and its Advanced Materials segments. Since joining the company in 2013, Reusser has aggressively pushed Esterline to adopt lean manufacturing and toward more centralized control, creating a more uniform company. Investment analysts saw the latest moves as another step in that effort. “We believe this change will facilitate our ongoing integration process, create greater responsiveness, allow us to uncover further opportunities for efficiency and accelerate the implementation of a range of best practices and

cost-savings initiatives,” Reusser said in a news release announcing the moves. That does not directly mean anything yet for Korry, a company official said. Korry is a division of Esterline and makes cockpit control and display panels at Paine Field. Earlier this summer, Bellevue-based Esterline announced that Korry will produce control panels for Boeing’s 777X. The company reports its third quarter earnings Sept. 3.

we know working women eat out three times a week and make those decisions on the fly. What that tells me is if they are making that decision on the fly, I have the opportunity to influence that decision if I can get my message in front of them at the moment they are making that decision.” Peters said WorkPlace Impact helps restaurants reach consumers during the workday through a nationwide network of 1 million businesses that represent 71 million employees. Many restaurants

reach workers by sending coupons directly into workplaces within close proximity to their restaurants. The large chain restaurants who use WorkPlace Impact send coupons to nearby employers who distribute the coupons to their employees either by hand or inside their paycheck envelope. “The great thing about this is that the brands’ materials are delivered by the employers to the employees, and it’s effective with influencing dining decisions,” Peters said.

Hackers claiming to have stolen data from AshleyMadison.com, a website that facilitates hook-ups between would-be adulterers, have released information they say includes details of more than 36 million user accounts. The data dump appears to be “legit” and includes full names, email addresses, partial credit-card data and dating preferences, according to Robert Graham, chief executive officer of Errata Security, a researcher in Atlanta. “This is data that can ‘out’ serious users,” Graham said. “I have verified multiple users of the site.” The hackers, calling themselves the “Impact Team,” released a “readme” file with the data that said they posted the information because AshleyMadison hadn’t been taken down, as they demanded when they said they had obtained the data last month. “Find someone you know in here? Keep in mind the site is a scam with thousands of fake female profiles,” the note said. “Chances are your man signed up on the world’s biggest affair site, but never had one. He just tried to. If that distinction matters.” Avid Life Media Inc., the Toronto company that operates the site, said it is “monitoring and investigating this situation to determine the validity” of the information and cooperating with investigations by Canadian police and the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation. The company didn’t address the effect the data dump might have on a

plan to sell shares this year in London. That listing was proposed after an offering in Canada was shelved due to concerns among potential investors about Avid Life’s business. The company pledged to do what it can to scrub the data from the Internet, though that may be difficult as download links have proliferated. The information is now available via the BitTorrent file-sharing technology, which means “it’s easily accessible and won’t disappear,” said Wulf Bolte, chief technology officer at German mobile security company mediaTest digital. A site called AshleyMadisonLeaked.com appears to have the full set of data, including keys to users’ preferences in dozens of fields such as “Bondage,” “Erotic Tickling” or “Experimenting with Sex Toys.” The site includes email and user-name search boxes that the curious can use to determine whether their information — or that of someone they suspect of adultery — was included in the data breach. Apparently many people did exactly that. On Wednesday, the “leaked” site was overwhelmed by visitors and difficult to access.

There’s more on the line than people’s relationships. The leak could result in tailor-made phishing, spam attacks or even blackmail, said Mikko Hypponen, an IT security expert with Finland’s F-Secure Oyj. “The most concrete fear for users listed in the database is that they’re now framed as cheaters, whether they actually did it or not,” Hypponen said. “We have to remember that they are victims of a crime.” The revelation of the data theft last month cut traffic to the site by half, though it has since partly recovered, according to researcher SimilarWeb. AshleyMadison has seen an average of 2 million visitors daily since July 21, the day after the hack was revealed, down from 2.7 million in the previous three months, SimilarWeb said. “This hack permanently destroys the perception that AshleyMadison can maintain users’ confidentiality,” said Robert Arandjelovic, a director of Blue Coat Systems, a technology consultancy in Munich. “It’s like doing business with a bank that’s been robbed 25 times in the past year; this has a huge impact on the customer base.”

IN OUR VIEW | Smarter Balanced test results

Don’t lower bar of new tests Not taking a test tends to bring down your score. That’s one of the takeaways from this week’s release of results of the state’s Smarter Balanced tests for students in third through eighth grades and the 11th grade. This was the test’s first year in all districts. Statewide and for most school districts in the county, the results met or exceeded the expectations of school officials including state Superintendent of Instruction Randy Dorn. “That says to me that students are capable of learning our new standards, which are designed to make sure students are ready for career and college,” Dorn said in a statement. Statewide, for third- through eighth-graders, the percentage of students who scored as “proficient” ranged from 52 percent to 58 for the English language test and between 46 percent and 57 percent in the math assessment. Everyone

will want to see higher percentages and soon, but Dorn and others said, those results compare well against scores from the first year of the WASL in 1997, the state’s earlier attempt at a testing standard, when just over 20 percent passed. The percentages this year also are higher than the 2014 field test of Smarter Balance, where less than 40 percent reached proficiency. Locally, the numbers were mixed with Everett, Lake Stevens and Stanwood school districts scoring several points higher than state averages for most grades, most districts matching state numbers and a few, including Monroe and Marysville, a few points below. The disappointment came with scores among last school year’s juniors, this fall’s senior class. Often with the approval and even the encouragement of parents, many juniors last spring elected not to take the test, some protesting the Smarter Balance tests’ link

to federal Common Core standards. Others opted out because juniors had already taken and passed another test that satisfied the graduation requirement. Those opting out drastically drove down the percentage of 11th grade students passing. Statewide, only 26 percent passed the English test; 14 percent, the math test. Scores were even grimmer for some county districts. In Marysville, only 18 percent passed the English test and 5 percent the math test. In Monroe those numbers were 12 percent and 6 percent, respectively. The Smarter Balance test’s strengths include its ability to adapt to the child taking it, adjusting the next question based on how well previous questions were answered. It should provide teachers a better tool for assessing each student’s understanding of a subject and how to direct studies from there, regardless of how students score.

But Dorn, while pleased with the first year’s results, is now pulling back support for using the 11th grade test in determining whether those students are ready to graduate. The test should be an evaluation tool, he said, not “a graduation hurdle.” The 11th grade test should remain as a part of the graduation requirement. There should be options — and there are — that allow seniors to meet similar standards when they don’t pass the test, but don’t lower the bar. The number of students who opted out because the test wasn’t a graduation requirement this year shows what could happen if passing the test is removed as a prerequisite for a diploma. Hurdles have their place, especially when you want to be certain students can clear the taller hurdles of college or job training that then lead to careers that support and fulfill them.

vocabulary attractive to our self-identified smarter than, more sensitive than citizens — “diverse,” “extinct,” “wild steelhead genebank,” “wild fish recovery.” They disingenuously conflate the terms “wild” and “native.” Neglect to inform us all release of hatchery steelhead in Puget Sound rivers is suspended through 2015 by the WDFW. What they do not cite is any direct, dispositive and credible scientific foundation to support their claim that the elimination of hatchery fish will rebound the “wild” strains of steelhead in our rivers. After the Wild Fish Conservancy’s “sue and settle” lawsuit in 2014, the entire Skagit River system is now a gene bank. Comparing the hatchery-fish-free Skagit with the 180,000 hatchery smolts permitted in the Skykomish River would have provided science for gene bank theories. But science is not the goal of these organizations. The goal is for us smarter than, more sensitive than useful idiots to demand more catch-andrelease gene banks. For almost 100 years some Chambers Creek or other hatchery broodstock steelhead have been spawning with native steelhead rather than returning to the hatchery. Hybrid surviving smolts along with the pure “native” smolts, if any now, swim to the ocean and return to spawn identified by their adipose fin as “wild” fish. But “wild” does not mean “native.” “Wild” could be anything from 100 percent native steelhead genes, to 100 percent hatchery genes, or both to an unknown degree. Are unknown gene banks useful? Sure, to take away recreation and livelihood by the expansion of catch and release. Rather than pay attention to those who threaten WDFW and NOAA with further “sue and settle” lawsuits, allow the professional adults in those

agencies to manage steelhead. That makes the only sense to this useful idiot.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■VACCINATIONS

Closure of clinics was wrong move In his guest column on Saturday, Dr. Gary Goldbaum, director of the Snohomish Health District, stresses the importance of vaccinations in preventing many communicable diseases. Why, then, did the Snohomish Health District close both vaccination clinics in Everett and Lynnwood in June? These clinics served the most needy and vulnerable residents of Snohomish County and their closure increases the possibility of future outbreaks of diseases like whooping cough.

City needs plan for big quake I’m writing because articles in the press and a recent Herald editorial have illuminated a public safety issue most of us don’t think about. The timing of the next Cascadia Subduction earthquake is uncertain, but there is no doubt that it will cause great damage to our community. For a developer like me, it raises questions about where, what and how to build, invest or perhaps divest. As Sen. Patty Murray, The Herald and others point out, we can’t prevent it — but let’s not panic, let’s plan. Science and the historical record tell us that severe damage will occur in coastal areas and inland waterways. The damage and destruction will vary in different parts of town. Everett’s waterfront will be impacted by subsidence, liquefaction, and collapsing bluffs. What will this mean for people living “between 100 and 200 feet of the shoreline edge”? The State Environmental Policy Act Mitigated Determination of Nonsignificance does not indicate that the city of Everett has considered earthquake preparedness in the proposed amendment to its Central Shoreline Master Program. Admittedly, this latest information about The Big One is new to most policy makers and the general public. I can’t fault the city if they have yet to develop policies to minimize the dangers to our community. Because doing nothing makes no sense, I hope that city planners and engineers are working on the problem. I don’t know what public safety measures are under consideration, but this shoreline amendment is the perfect venue to bring the

Drone concerns easily addressed Hand wringing about the drone problem could be greatly reduced by regulating them just as we do automobiles.

Conservatives ignore value of contraception

t is becoming difficult to escape the conclusion that conservatives would rather fight about abortion than reduce it. Candidates in this month’s Republican presidential debate tripped over themselves to display their pro-life extremism, disavowing exceptions that would permit abortion in cases of rape, DANA MILBANK incest or even to save the life of the mother — non-starters all in American public opinion. Next month, when Congress returns from recess, some Republicans are threatening to shut down the federal government in order to defund Planned Parenthood to punish the group for the abortions it provides without federal funds. I wrote a couple of weeks ago that if Republicans succeed in their effort, and thereby reduce women’s access to birth control, the likely outcome will be more abortions. This expanded on an earlier column noting the hopeful signs that the use of long-acting, reversible contraceptives such as new-generation IUDs can reduce abortions. Anti-abortion conservatives reacted by telling me I have blood on my hands. “Spare me,” wrote Ross Douthat, a conservative columnist for the New York Times. “Tell the allegedly ‘pro-life’ institution you support to set down the forceps, put away the vacuum, and then we’ll talk about what kind of family planning programs deserve funding. But don’t bring your worldview’s bloody hands to me and demand my dollars to pay for soap enough to maybe wash a few flecks off.” But halfway through, Douthat acknowledged the truth of the argument that wider use of long-acting, reversible contraception — LARC is the unfortunate acronym — could reduce abortions: “Does all of the foregoing mean that no contraceptive-oriented public policy can possibly reduce the abortion rate? No, probably some can, and do: You can find evidence, when other variables are screened out, that certain discrete measures — including the oversold but still noteworthy recent Colorado experiment with long-acting contraception, which I promise to give longer treatment at some point — can in some cases have an impact on abortion rates on the margins. ...” Let’s give “longer treatment” right now to the supposedly marginal Colorado experiment with LARCs. The state in 2009 launched a privately funded Family Planning Initiative that provided 30,000 IUDs and other implants at zero or little cost to low-income women at 68 family-planning clinics. The teen birth rate fell 40 percent between 2009 and 2013 — and the teen abortion rate fell by 35 percent between 2009 and 2012 in the counties where the program was in place. Colorado attributed 75 percent of the decline in the teen birth rate to the initiative. The office of Gov. John Hickenlooper said the state saved $42.5 million in healthcare costs associated with teen births — almost double the $23 million anonymous donation that funded the program. So how did Republicans in the state Legislature respond to this success? A Senate committee this year voted along party lines to postpone indefinitely consideration of funding the initiative. Even anti-abortion forces didn’t dispute the eye-popping statistics — they merely tried to cast doubt on the cause. National Review acknowledged that “indicators are improving dramatically in Colorado” but argued that “to say the program directly caused the huge decreases” in teen births and abortions “is a simplification.” But even if the huge success is a “simplification,” isn’t the idea at the very least worth further study? Douthat says he wants to talk about funding family planning programs only after abortion providers cease and desist. But such refusal to compromise only perpetuates the abortion wars. If, alternatively, anti-abortion conservatives were to make a serious step toward reducing abortions with long-acting contraception, they would find less resistance on the left to reasonable abortion restrictions, and abortion overall would be less common. Douthat says I and others on the centerleft would have more “moral logic” if we were to argue that “abortion is morally necessary and praiseworthy” and that “a fetus is just a clump of cells and that prolifers are all unhinged zealots.” Sorry, but I don’t think that way. If I did, I would be just as uncompromising as the anti-abortion right. I’d prefer to find common ground. Dana Milbank is a Washington Post columnist.

No bodies found after Bremerton blast

Power line may cross bombing range

Associated Press

OLYMPIA — Washington state Attorney General Bob Ferguson said Wednesday that he has taken action against four companies accused of offering fraudulent legal services to immigrants. Ferguson, speaking at a press conference in Seattle, said his office has stepped up enforcement against the companies and owners of companies in Lakewood, Tacoma and Everett. He said that unlicensed

immigration consultants who refer to themselves as “notarios” or “notarios publicos” are misrepresenting themselves to consumers as having advanced legal training. Victims face losing their immigration status if a deadline is missed or paperwork is filled out incorrectly, he noted. “The consequences for fraud can hardly be more significant than that,” Ferguson said. A measure signed into law in 2011 in Washington made it illegal for unauthorized consultants to work on immigration

processes that can only be provided by attorneys or other qualified representatives. Ferguson’s office has: ■■Filed a $235,000 lawsuit against EC New Horizons and EC Horizons and their owners Edwin Cruz and Maurice Terry of Lakewood.

SEATTLE — A fast-acting manager who evacuated a Bremerton motel minutes before a massive explosion is being credited with saving dozens of lives, including some who were staying in rooms that were reduced to rubble. The blast Tuesday night critically injured a gas company worker and knocked back firefighters, but the guests were safely away before it tore apart the Motel 6. Two people initially were unaccounted for. However, Bremerton Fire Chief Al Duke said Wednesday no bodies were found in the debris and he was almost certain the missing guests were not caught in the explosion. Cadaver dogs went through the building two or three times and found no evidence of bodies. Plus, investigators pinged the cellphones of the missing people, and they showed up “way south of the area,” Duke said. Also Wednesday, investigators were looking into what caused the blast, including a report that someone might have accidentally damaged a gas line behind the building. Cascade Natural Gas identified the worker injured in the explosion as Larry Jennings, 59. The Bremerton man remained in critical condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The explosion ripped off a 16-room section of the hotel that collapsed in a pile of rubble and burned for hours. Some firefighters at the scene were blown back 20 feet by the force, and others pulled smoldering debris from the building to help contain the fire, Fire Capt.

Officials work at the scene of an explosion at a Motel 6 on Kitsap Way in Bremerton on Tuesday night.

John Hawkins said at a news conference. Duke credited acting hotel manager Tonya Hinds, a former volunteer firefighter, with quickly evacuating the building because she smelled and heard a gas leak. He also lauded the hotel’s guests for heeding the fire alarm. More than 60 people were staying at the hotel, though it’s unclear how many were in the building when it was evacuated. About 10 people were staying in the 16 rooms that were destroyed, Duke said. “People have been there when you hear an alarm go off and you don’t do anything. We see that a lot,” Duke said. “The one time that you should have gotten

out, and you didn’t, it might turn out bad.” Hinds said in a telephone interview that a passer-by came to her office to say a gas line was leaking at the back of the threestory motel, which reopened last fall after an extensive remodel. Hinds said she went outside and saw that the leaking line was a big one “with a lot of gas.” “I pulled the alarm and started corralling people away from the building,” Hinds said. “I wanted to make sure all my guests were out.” The fire department responded to the alarm just before 8 p.m., along with Jennings and another Cascade Gas employee. The explosion came half an hour later,

critically injuring Jennings. “Our prayers go out to his family,” an emotional Duke said at the news conference. “It could have been worse.” Two firefighters also were injured, but both were home Wednesday and in good condition, Hawkins said. One suffered bruised ribs, and the other had a concussion, Duke said. Hinds said a guest reported seeing someone jump out a window and land on or near the gas line just before the leak. “We’re still checking on that,” Chief Strachan said. “Whether they did or didn’t go out that way, we have detectives working on that as we speak.”

PENDLETON, Ore. — Idaho Power is asking to build a portion of its proposed Boardman to Hemingway Transmission Line on the U.S. Navy’s bombing range south of Boardman to avoid interfering with nearby farms. The company, based in Boise, has requested an easement from the Navy to place approximately 10 miles of transmission lines on the west side of Bombing Range Road, which splits the Naval Weapons Systems Training Facility to the west and a half-dozen irrigated farms to the east. The preferred route spans five Eastern Oregon counties and more than 300 miles, beginning at a proposed Bonneville Power Administration substation east of Boardman and ending at the Hemingway Transmission Station in southwest Idaho. Part of the project’s MorrowUmatilla segment includes an alternative that shows lines running down the east side of Bombing Range Road, drawing loud criticism from landowners and county officials who say the towers would take acres of high-value agriculture out of production. The Boardman-to-Hemingway project is expected to come online by 2020.

Wildfires unchecked as resources stretched thin By Keith Ridler Associated Press

BOISE, Idaho — This summer’s massive fires have strained resources across the West to the point that wildfire managers are being forced to let some fires burn unchecked, and that has renewed a longstanding debate about whether it is better to fight a fire — or to sometimes just let it burn out. Drought and heat have combined to make this one of the most active fire seasons in the Lower 48 in recent years. Nearly 29,000 firefighters are battling some 100 large blazes across the West, but it hasn’t been enough. In northern Idaho, private citizens have even jumped on fire lines to help overwhelmed firefighters. “What we’re getting now are much more intense fires because of all those years of suppression,” said John Freemuth, a Boise State University professor and a public lands expert. “Those kinds of intense fires are usually not allowed to burn.” But fire managers have little choice this year. Some 11,000 square miles have burned so far. Most of that has been in Alaska, but an increase in fires in the Idaho, Oregon, Montana, Washington and California has caused competition for firefighting resources with some

requests going unmet. Some fires have simply been unstoppable. Steve Ellis, deputy director of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management, earlier this week flew over a 443-square-mile rangeland fire in southwest Idaho and said he could see where retardant bombers put in lines that the fire easily crossed. “It’s always tough when we get to this point where we have much more fire than we have resources,” said John Segar, one of

eight members on an interagency group based in Boise that decides how to deploy the nation’s wildland firefighters. “The decisions are essentially triage decisions.” Segar, chief of Fire Management for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, sits on the National Multi-Agency Coordination Group at the National Interagency Fire Center. While there’s been a longstanding debate about whether it’s better to fight a fire or just let

it burn out, Sager said conditions are so volatile right now that every current fire or new fire start is being attacked with the intent of putting it out if resources are available. “It’s just been too dry and too hot,” he said. Letting fires burn “really hasn’t been a consideration this year.” Freemuth said land managers have moved toward recognizing using fire as a tool to reduce fuels that lead to intense fires,

particularly after the giant fires in Yellowstone National Park in the late 1980s. “Having fire on the landscape in the right conditions has been accepted management now,” Freemuth said. But efforts to reduce the threat of fires have been hampered by a lack of money for prescribed burns or work to clear brush. Some Western lawmakers, including Republican Sens. Mike Crapo and Jim Risch, of Idaho, and Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden ,of Oregon, have been pushing for letting firefighting agencies use dollars meant for natural disasters. Currently, agencies have been dipping into money set aside for fire prevention, such as prescribed burns. “It’s sort of an East-West issue where other members of Congress and other parts of the country don’t get it because they don’t see these kinds of fires,” Freemuth said. Even some Western residents don’t want to allow beneficial fires to burn because of the smoke, he noted. “It’s like two environmental values having to be reconciled — the need for the right kind of fire and the need for good air quality.” Arguments have also been made for decades that more logging to remove trees and grazing by livestock to mow down grasses could remove fuels that would otherwise burn.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Donâ€™t let yourself be aggravated by the little things people around you do. Take your time to figure out whatâ€™s actually going on. Itâ€™s important to let everyone do his or her own thing if you donâ€™t want others to meddle in your own affairs. Keep your personal life a secret and focus on self-improvements rather than trying to change others. Your numbers are 7, 11, 19, 23, 31, 37, 41. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Have some fun. Now is not the time to sulk over what you donâ€™t have when you should be thankful and enjoying what you do. Being positive will invite a lot more opportunities your way. Share your ideas in an entertaining fashion. â˜…â˜…â˜… TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Spend time with the people who can help you advance. You have some good ideas that need to be shared if you want to be successful. You will ease financial pressure if you find a new way to use your talents. â˜…â˜…â˜… GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Take on the physical chores that need to be completed and you will impress others and live up to the promises youâ€™ve made to your loved ones. Put aside time to spend with someone special. A positive personal change is in the stars. â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜… CANCER (June 21-July 22): The best way to deal with the pressure that someone puts on you is by taking care of your end of the deal. Donâ€™t let emotions slow your progress or make you look bad. â˜…â˜… LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The more you collaborate, the more you will learn, grow and advance. Your ability to make others feel important will help you move into a leadership position. Your suggestions and solutions will set you apart from the competition. â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜… VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A business trip or discussions with potential collaborators

can help you get things accomplished faster and more efficiently. Take care of institutional matters and stick to proper protocol to avoid setbacks. â˜…â˜…â˜… LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Try to learn from past experiences in order to help you navigate the challenges you are currently facing. Stay focused on the important projects you have started, but put time aside to enjoy the company of someone you love. â˜…â˜…â˜… SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Keep an eye on the people you are dealing with. Someone will try to make you look bad. Donâ€™t get angry when doing your job superbly is your ticket to overcoming the jealousy of others. Choose intelligence and diplomacy over revenge. â˜…â˜…â˜… SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Learn from the mistakes made by others. Put more effort into raising your standards or improving your domestic situation. Planning a getaway for two will add spice to your life and encourage a happier future. Make love a priority. â˜…â˜…â˜… CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Be ready to take advantage of an opportunity. There is money to be made and gains that will lead to a more affluent lifestyle. Donâ€™t let impulsive behavior take over. Itâ€™s your perfect sense of timing that will bring you success. â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜… AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Share your thoughts, concerns and ideas with someone who can help you improve your earning potential. Look at the big picture and take into consideration all the different ways you can put your skills to better use. Donâ€™t sell yourself short. â˜…â˜… PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A couple of subtle changes will do you good. Discuss your plans with someone you look up to or who your decisions will affect. Set your plans in motion in order to put the past behind you. â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜… Universal Uclick

2015 SEAHAWKS TRAINING CAMP

With contract done, Wagner focused on football INSIDE

Middle linebacker insists he’s as motivated as ever after signing a four-year, $43 million extension on Aug. 1. By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

Bobby Wagner interrupted another mundane drill for linebackers running through padded bags with ... handstands? His blue Seattle Seahawks helmet on, chin straps unsnapped, he turned his All-Pro, $43 million body upside down and began covering the practice field’s grass

with his hands instead of his feet. When he got back upright, the centerpiece to the NFL’s best defense the last three seasons began dancing those hands from side to side, hula style. “Just having fun, man,” he said after Wednesday’s practice and his sideshow ended the 20th and final day of Seattle’s training camp at team headquarters. “Camp is a grind, so gotta do

✓ Seahawks QB Wilson has fond memories of Kansas City, C5 something to have fun. “You definitely want to get the learning down, but you’ve got to have the right balance to grindin’ and having fun. It makes practices not seem as long. Whether it’s shooting basketballs or playing ping-pong or doing handstands, just have fun.” He’s having fun. But he’s definitely not content.

On Aug. 1 he signed a $43 million, four-year extension with nearly $22 million in guarantees. It made him the NFL’s highestpaid middle linebacker, to go with his reputation as the best one. He got a guaranteed raise of an astounding 2,800 percent. He earned $782,000 in base salary last season — not guaranteed — as Seattle’s second-round draft choice out of Utah State in 2012. Now he’s getting $21,978,000 million in guarantees through the 2019 season. Try to imagine getting a 2,800-percent raise.

Yet Wagner, who turned 25 in June, said his “simple” life hasn’t changed in these first days since an $8 million signing bonus entered his bank account this month. Really, he insists nothing is different. No big purchases? “Nothing. Just chillin’,” Wagner said with a grin. “Nothing, other than ... I can’t really say much has changed. I live a pretty simple life. It’s just been chill — and focused on football.” See WAGNER, Page C6

AquaSox host 4MOM night to support Bishop’s cause By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

I’m familiar with him (from) when I competed against him over at Meadowdale. To be able to come in take over after him has been great. It’s just been a great and smooth transition.” Stewart compiled an 87-49 record at Meadowdale from 2000-2012 and led the Mavericks to the state playoffs seven times, someplace he hopes to lead the Marauders this season. One thing Stewart has always been able to do is to get his players to buy in. At the Marauders’ first practice of the season on Wednesday, it was obvious that he has already earned the support of his team.

EVERETT — The Everett AquaSox put their full support behind one of their own Wednesday night. Everett joined Sox outfielder Braden Bishop’s crusade against early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, holding its 4MOM night during Wednesday’s game against the Spokane Indians at Everett Memorial Stadium. “When I first got here I wasn’t expecting to do this,” Bishop said prior to Wednesday’s game. “I’d done it in college, but I thought with the short season it wasn’t enough time or enough notice. But they were really great about doing this. They were gung-ho about it, and I’m really thankful to the AquaSox for making it happen.” Bishop’s mother Suzy was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s last September, and he’s been heavily active in raising awareness and funds for the cause ever since. He started a charity called 4MOM that raised more than $10,000 during his junior year at the University of Washington. Bishop continued to be active once he joined the professional ranks, and the Sox joined the fray Wednesday. Everett partnered with the Alzheimer’s Association,

NEW BEGINNINGS

The start of fall practice brings renewed optimism for Mariner and new head coach Mark Stewart By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

EXTRA >> WEB heraldnet.com/prepzone ✔ Visit us online for prep football postcards from Cascade, Everett and Edmonds-Woodway

EVERETT — John Ondriezek left some big shoes to fill at Mariner High School, but Mark Stewart is just the man to fill them. After more than two decades as the Marauders head football coach, Ondriezek retired in December. A little over a month later, Mariner hired Stewart, who served as the Marauders defensive coordinator in 2014.

But Stewart’s resume is much more decorated than his one season as an assistant for Ondriezek. He achieved sustained success in 13 seasons as a head coach at Meadowdale prior to taking over at Garfield High School in 2013. Stewart returned to Wesco after one season with the Bulldogs to coach alongside Ondriezek. “It’s been a really nice experience with coach Ondriezek,” Stewart said. “It’s just been a good atmosphere to be around.

South Snohomish wins, places fifth Softball team representing the West beats Uganda to end its controversial run at the Little League World Series. By David Krueger Herald Writer

PORTLAND, Ore. — The South Snohomish team couldn’t have imagined the ups and downs it would face at the Little League Softball World Series. Being accused of intentionally losing a game and becoming a national news story wasn’t what the girls representing the West Region had in mind when they arrived in Portland last week.

Despite all that, the players continued to play softball and, in their final game of the tournament, got something they really wanted. A victory. The West team scored four runs — all with two outs — in the top of the third inning to defeat the AVRS School Little League from Uganda 4-1 Wednesday in the fifth-place game. South Snohomish finished the tournament with a 4-2 record. “I’m just super proud of my

team,” South Snohomish head coach Fred Miller said. “My girls played through adversity down here and they fought to the end.” Brooke Jordan went 3-for-4 with an RBI single to lead South Snohomish. Winning pitcher Makayla Miller continued to be a force on the mound, striking out seven. The victory brought a positive end to a difficult three days for the South Snohomish players and coaches. The team was accused of intentionally losing after being no-hit in an 8-0 loss to North Carolina See SOFTBALL, Page C4

hinook salmon, generally speaking, are for the very serious fisherman. Coho are for the semi-serious fisherman. Pink salmon, on the other hand, are happy-go-lucky little guys, willing to dance with almost anyone. I’m a big fan of pinks, because every other year they encourage hundreds and hundreds of casual anglers to spend some quality time on the salt, or on a river bank, with friends and family. And in my opinion, that’s what it’s all about. If you own a Grady White and fiercely fish the derbies, bless your heart and more power to you. If you live to see a 15-pound silver explode out of your prop wash and hang five feet in the air for what seems like an eternity, I applaud your tenacity. But I, personally, will take a sunny day in August, flat water, family in the boat and 6.8 million humpies just under the surface and on the bite. I found one of those memorable days Monday, right out in front of Seattle’s Shilshole Marina, with son Murray and youngest grandson Tanner, 8 years old. We trolled white dodger and pink mini-squid and limited four people in an hour and a half. The kid, of course, was allowed to whack all the fish. We bled ‘em, got ‘em on ice right away, and decided that some would hit the table fresh, while some would be routed to the smoker. The fresh dinner that evening followed a long-time Kruse family favorite recipe, concocted by Judyrae a number of years ago, as follows: Start with a half-cup of brown sugar and add enough zesty Italian dressing to produce a marinade about the consistency of syrup when mixed thoroughly. If it’s too thin, add more sugar; if too thick, more dressing. Fashion a “boat” out of

Warmer water conditions off the coast apparently have brought albacore in force, and also brought the fish closer to the beach. Larry Giese at Deep Sea Charters in Westport (800-562-0151) said his tuna boats are going out about 35 miles, which is a short run most years. “Tuna fishing has been phenomenal,” Giese said. “Last trip out for the Fury, 10 guys boated 147 fish, and at an average of 20 to 25 pounds, those are nice tuna.” The largest albacore on the

Put the boat/fish on the grill at a medium-high heat and poach for 30 or 40 minutes under heavy smoke and basting occasionally. Serves three or four.

Lake Wenatchee closed The Lake Wenatchee sockeye fishery was closed Sunday by state salmon managers, not because there weren’t fish left to be harvested, but because of an incidental catch of a protected species. Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife biologist Travis Maitland, in Leavenworth, said ESA-listed spring chinook are holding in the cooler waters of the lake, rather than going on up low, warm tributaries to spawn, and are being hooked incidentally (and released) by sockeye anglers. Even though released, a certain percentage of the springers involved die, and the number of chinook being “taken” in the fishery was nearing the ESA limit, Maitland said.

More closures The Yakima basin is a favorite area for those trout anglers who prefer to fish moving water, because of several productive streams tributary to the river. Most of those streams were closed, or partially closed, to all fishing by the WDFW late last week (or previously) to minimize stress and mortality of gamefish suffering under drought conditions. Closed from 2 p.m. until midnight are the Yakima proper, from Union Gap to the south Cle Elum bridge; Swauk Creek and all tributaries below Williams Creek; the Naches River from Tieton River to Bumping River/Little Naches; and Rattlesnake Creek. Closed completely are Williams Creek and all tribs; Swauk Creek and all tribs above Williams Creek; the American River; Ahtanum Creek; Little Naches River; and the Teanaway River and all forks.

ladder so far is a fish just under 40 pounds, he said. Two-day trips cost $600, while day-and-a-half trips are priced at $555. A lot of trips don’t need the second fishing day, Giese said, because “they’re filling the boat on the first day, many times out.” If you’ve never sprung for a tuna trip, you’ve missed one of the Northwest’s singular fishing experiences, and this is a particularly good year to go. — Wayne Kruse

Steelhead management Hey steelhead fishermen — want to help choose which Puget Sound rivers will no longer be stocked with hatchery fish? The WDFW has extended until Aug. 31 the public comment period for selecting Puget Sound rivers where hatchery steelhead will not be released by the department. To comment, go to http://wdfw.wa.gov/conservation/ fisheries/steelhead/gene_bank/, or call the Mill Creek office at 425-7751311 to request paper forms. Rivers under consideration are also listed on that webpage. Wild steelhead management zones, or “gene banks,” are one of a number of management strategies identified in the Statewide Steelhead Management Plan to conserve and rebuild Washington’s wild steelhead. The department will designate at least one wild steelhead management zone in each of three Puget Sound regions, the candidates for hatchery closure in north Sound being the Skagit, Sauk, Samish, South Fork Nooksack, Pilchuck, North Fork Skykomish, and Tolt. The WDFW’s district manager, Annette Hoffman, said at least one will be named, but there could be more than one. And what would be the status of sportfishing on a designated “gene bank” river? Hoffmann said there would be one of two scenarios in effect: There would be catch and keep steelhead fishing on the designated river if there was deemed to be a harvestable surplus of wild fish; or catch and release fishing if the state was able to receive a permit from the feds (who are driving the whole thing under the ESA listing of Puget Sound steelhead as threatened). Neither of these seems likely to happen any time soon. The Skagit is perhaps the highestprofile sport steelhead fishery on the list, and Hoffmann said the comments of most Skagit fishermen are hostile to a gene bank designation, while “conservation groups” are generally in favor. “Puget Sound steelhead were

Carli Lloyd and Heather O’Reilly each scored twice and the United States beat Costa Rica 7-2 on Wednesday night in the exhibition game that included an 83-minute weather delay.

The Americans beat Costa Rica 8-0 on Sunday in Pittsburgh. “This team is resilient,” O’Reilly said. “We bounce back through games, through tough moments of games and in this situation, it was sort of peculiar circumstances that we were able to show our resilience through.” The majority of the sellout crowd of 20,535 stayed through the rain delay, and those fans were rewarded when the U.S. scored three times in the first 8 minutes after play resumed.

Mariner players finish their warm up with a team huddle during the first day of practice on Wednesday.

Mariner From Page C1

“I think it’s going to be a great season,” senior offensive and defensive lineman DeRhaun Mallett said. “We definitely have the capability to take (the) league (championship), it’s just going to come down to gelling together and playing together.” Players credited Stewart for how organized he is when it comes to running a practice. And when it comes to running plays, Stewart can be a bit of a perfectionist. “He really critiques plays,” junior running back and defensive back Anthany Smith said. “He makes sure all the blocks are specific and everybody hits their blocks and does the precise stuff. It’s not just running through the plays. Everybody has to get their blocks (right).”

Stewart and Ondriezek’s offensive philosophies are both based in Wing-T principles, but the Marauders will look different under Stewart. “What I’m doing is not real far away from what they’ve done,” Stewart said. “I do things a little bit different, but there is enough similarities that it will be a pretty similar transition.” Stewart said not to expect an exact replica of what he did at Meadowdale, although he admits it will be similar. “It’s a little bit different because it’s a different school, but when you’re a head coach for over 20 years there are some things that are just what you do and what you know how to coach,” Stewart said. “We’re going to get out there and do those things and the things that I believe in.” There seems to be an excitement among the Mariner players for what they might be

able to accomplish this season with Stewart at the helm, but Ondriezek’s influence on the program is far from gone. “When I think of Mariner, I think of Ondriezek,” Mallett said. Senior running back and defensive back Brinder Kaile said two words came to mind when he thinks of Ondriezek. “Mariner pride,” Kaile said. “He was all about that,” Smith added of Ondriezek. “He always came and checked up on us in class and how we were doing in school. If we ever had family problems we could always sit down and talk to him. ... He’s just a good guy in general. He can be there for you whenever. He’s that guy you can count on.” Aaron Lommers covers prep sports for The Herald. Follow him on Twitter at @aaronlommers and contact him at alommers@heraldnet.com.

SEATTLE — Brad Evans converted a penalty kick 61⁄2 minutes into second-half stoppage time to give the Seattle Sounders a 2-1 comeback victory over Olimpia of Honduras in a CONCACAF Champions League game Wednesday night. The penalty kick was awarded when Sounders defender Dylan Remick was taken down just inside the penalty area by Arnold Peralta. Evans drove his shot into the right side, with goalkeeper Noel Vallarda going the opposite way. The final whistle came immediately after Olimpia kicked off following the goal. Erik Friberg tied it for Seattle on a header in the 90th minute. Before scoring, the Sounders had had six near-misses, including two shots off the post. Alberth Ellis scored for Olimpia in the fifth minute. Seattle (1-0-1) took the lead in the three-team group. Vancouver (0-0-1) is second, and Olimpia (0-1-0) third.

Pappa cleared to rejoin Seattle Midfielder Marco Pappa has been cleared to rejoin the Sounders after complying with Major League Soccer’s Substance Abuse and Behavioral Health Program following his arrest for investigation of driving under the influence. General manager Garth Lagerway said in a statement that Pappa completed the steps necessary to reach this point and the organization will continue to support him. Pappa was arrested on DUI charges on July 19. He was banned from playing games with the club until he completed the league-mandated program.

AquaSox blow 5-0 lead, rally to beat Indians 8-6 By Nick Patterson Everett Writer

EVERETT — The Everett AquaSox escaped a second straight collapse. Corey Simpson’s wind-aided home run in the bottom of the seventh inning snapped a tie as the Sox went on to defeat the Spokane Indians 8-6 Wednesday night at Everett Memorial Stadium. Everett jumped out to a 5-0 lead, but frittered it away as Spokane eventually tied it 6-6 in the top of the seventh. The Sox couldn’t hold a 5-2 lead against Spokane on Tuesday, giving up eight runs in the eighth inning en route to an 11-8 loss. But this time Simpson was able to stop the bleeding as his opposite-field fly ball just carried over the short fence in right-center to give Everett a 7-6 lead. Ryan Uhl hit an RBI double to increase the AquaSox’s lead to 8-6. Simpson finished a double short of the cycle and Braden Bishop homered for the second straight game for Everett (12-9 second half, 34-25 overall). Sherman Lacrus doubled three times and Dylan Moore drove in three runs to pace Spokane (1011, 29-30).

Jackson topping the charts Everett shortstop Drew Jackson is making a strong case for the Northwest League’s Most Valuable Player award. Jackson went into Wednesday’s action leading the league in four key offensive categories: batting average (.383), on-base percentage (.447), runs scored (53) and stolen bases (36). His lead in batting average was 39 points, and he had 13 more runs scored than the nearest competition. Jackson’s lead in runs and stolen bases came despite sitting out 13 games. Jackson also ranked second in OPS (.932) and fourth in slugging percentage (.486).

Two-headed monster Everett has no players among the league’s pitching leaders. However, if one added together the numbers of Andrew Moore and Anthony Misiewicz, who have been sharing a spot in the rotation and piggybacking on top of one another’s starts, one would have one of the best pitchers in the league. Between them, Moore and Misiewicz are 3-3 with a 2.26 ERA, walking just eight and striking out 66 in 672⁄3 innings. The 2.26 ERA would rank third in the league. Moore and Misiewicz are splitting starts in an effort to limit their innings following busy springs with their college teams.

Going, going gone Mariners reliever Beimel serves up three straight home runs in 7-2 loss to Rangers By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ARLINGTON, Texas — There’s nothing official yet from the Seattle Mariners, but veteran reliever Joe Beimel sounds like a man headed for the disabled list after giving up three home runs Wednesday in a 7-2 loss to Texas. “I’ve been kind of fatigued the last week or so,” he admitted. “It was like I was throwing through mud. Everything was real slow and (I’m) not bouncing back. “I thought I’d be able to fight through it, just keep going out and battling. Today was just one of those things where I don’t think I’m going to be able to do that anymore.” The Rangers forced the reassessment by hitting three homers in a span of four Beimel pitches in the seventh inning. Doing so turned a one-run game into a five-run blowout. “The workload has been such that none of those guys (in the bullpen) are 100 percent,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “I tried to give him a few days off, but he’s been elevating a lot of pitches. I’m a little concerned.” Let’s reset: Texas lefty Derek Holland, activated earlier in the day, held the Mariners to two runs in 61⁄3 innings after spending the last four-plus months on the disabled list because of a shoulder injury. “It was pretty much there,” third baseman Kyle Seager said. “He had good velocity. He was getting that good arm-side running sink on the balls in. And his slider and curveball were the same. He looked pretty good to me.” Holland (1-1) exited after Jesus Montero’s one-out single in the seventh. Montero went

which worked the gates, handed out t-shirts and wristbands, and set up a memory wall in the concourse. There was also a purple theme in the ballpark, the color Bishop adopted for his efforts because of his connection to the University of Washington. “I think it’s great,” Sox manager Rob Mummau said. “It’s a great event to have and he’s a super guy. With the Alzheimer’s cause and the fundraising and everything about it, its a great thing to have here in Everett.” Originally the Sox had no plans to hold a 4MOM night. However, the event came together quickly as the Sox

to second on Keone Kela’s two-out wild pitch and tried to score on Ketel Marte’s single to center. Delino DeShields threw out Montero at the plate, which kept Texas in front by one run. “It was the right play,” McClendon insisted. “The center fielder, traditionally, doesn’t throw well. (Lefty Jake) Diekman is hot in the bullpen, waiting to face Seager. It was definitely the right play. “The guy made a throw.” Beimel replaced starter Mike Montgomery (4-6) to start the Texas seventh and began the inning by hitting Shin-Soo Choo. After Adrian Beltre lined out to right, the game got away. Mitch Moreland golfed an 0-2 slider-on-a-tee for a tworun homer on a drive that just cleared a leaping attempt by Nelson Cruz at the right-field wall. It wasn’t clear initially that Cruz didn’t catch the ball. There were no doubt two pitches later when Mike Napoli hit a 447-foot homer to center or one pitch after that when Elvis Andrus hit a 413-foot homer to center. “It’s definitely tired,” Beimel said of his arm. “Today was a little different kind of tired. I felt it grabbing a little in the back. I don’t know if that’s just a knot back there or what it is.” Beimel, 38, had a 2.50 ERA as recently as Aug. 7. It now stands at 4.78 after giving up 12 runs (10 earned) in 12⁄3 innings over his last five appearances. The tentative plan is the Mariners, who have an open date Thursday, will reevaluate Beimel prior to Friday’s game against the Chicago White Sox at Safeco Field. It will be a surprise if he isn’t placed on the disabled list. If so, that would enable the Mariners, if they choose, to

recall lefty Rob Rasmussen, who was optioned Sunday to Triple-A Tacoma. The 10-day waiting period doesn’t apply when replacing a player put on the DL. The three-homer barrage against Beimel capped a 2-4 trip through Boston and Texas that saw the Mariners outscored 59-29. The bullpen gave up 27 of those runs in 251⁄3 innings. The Rangers jumped Montgomery for three runs in the first inning before he settled into a groove. Choo lined a one-out single to left in the first inning and went to second on a four-pitch walk to Beltre. Moreland then lined an RBI single to left for a 1-0 lead. When Montgomery hit Napoli, the bases were loaded with one out for Andrus, who punched a two-run single into center. The Rangers led 3-0. After that, Montgomery held Texas to three hits, all singles, in five scoreless innings. Even so, that bad first inning was enough to beat the Mariners even if Beimel had worked a clean outing. “As the game went on,” Montgomery said, “I just got a lot more settled in. Mechanically, I felt a lot better. I commanded my fastball a lot better. The goal is to come in and do that right off the bat.” The Mariners got one run back against Holland when Mark Trumbo turned on a 2-1 slider for a one-out homer to left in the fifth inning, but they missed a big chance after loading the bases with no outs in the sixth. Franklin Gutierrez grounded into a run-scoring double play, and Austin Jackson grounded out to third. That allowed the Rangers to hold onto to a 3-2 lead when Montero was thrown out at home in the seventh.

managed to put the promotion together in a matter of weeks. “A couple people reached out to the AquaSox through social media and said it would be great if we did something like this,” Bishop explained about how the event came into being. There wasn’t enough time for the team to have hats or jerseys made, so the night was more about raising awareness than about raising funds. It also gave Bishop the chance to promote his Walk to End Alzheimer’s, which is scheduled for Oct. 3 in Everett. Bishop’s teammates have enthusiastically taken to the cause, too. On Wednesday they sported purple athletic tape and inked “4MOM” on their forearms. The support included players who don’t even play for the Sox anymore, as several

former Everett players tweeted their support throughout Wednesday. “They love it,” Bishop said. “Both teams that I’ve been on, Washington and the AquaSox, everyone’s been so supportive. It’s overwhelming for me because it is a tough situation to be in, it’s a tough situation of play under. So to have guys around me who are so supportive, want to be a part of it, want to help get the word out and want to be there for me, it’s an overwhelming sense of support.” And Bishop’s mother continues to put up a good fight against the disease. “She’s doing better,” Bishop said. “She just saw a new team of doctors and they’re putting her through some tests to see where she’s at. She’s in good spirits.”

MARINERS | Notebook

Farquhar is looking like his old self ARLINGTON, Texas — A new emphasis on his cut fastball has Mariners reliever Danny Farquhar looking like his old self. “I’m going to give some credit to TC (pitching coordinator Terry Clark) down in the minor leagues,” Farquhar said. “He told me I needed to start throwing it — just throw it. Trust it. That’s kind of what I did a little bit. “I think it’s up a tick or two maybe.” That’s no small thing. “It gives the hitter less time to react,” he said. “I think (the increased velocity) has it breaking a little bit later, maybe. They don’t see it early. I think it makes a difference.” Farquhar pitched a one-two-three eighth inning Tuesday night in protecting a one-run lead against Texas. That came two days after he worked a one-two-three inning in closing out a marathon victory in Boston. “That was the Farquhar of old,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “Where has he been? It was nice to see it again. I saw command. The first three months, all I saw was ball one, ball two and 3-1.” Farquhar amounts to a microcosm of the Mariners’ bullpen over the last two seasons. A year ago, he contributed a 2.66 ERA over 66 appearances to a lockdown unit. This year, in three previous bigleague tours, he had a 6.23 ERA in 25 games. The overall bullpen ERA has slipped from last year’s club-record 2.59 to its current 4.30. Farquhar said he found his form in his most recent tour at Triple-A Tacoma; he had eight scoreless outings in 10 appearances while compiling a 2.13 ERA overall. That prompted his recall last Saturday from the Rainiers. “I went down to Triple-A and got some confidence back,” he said. “I’m just rolling with it.” Cruz at 30 and counting Nelson Cruz extended his careerbest streak of reaching base safely to 30 games when he singled through the left side in the sixth inning. Cruz’s streak is the longest of the season by an American League player and the longest current streak in the majors. Three National League players had longer streaks earlier in the season: • St. Louis outfielder Matt Holliday had a 45-game run from April 5 to June 1. • Toronto shortstop Troy Tulowitzki went 41 games while playing for Colorado from May 26 to July 20. • Cincinnati first baseman Joey Votto had a 32-game streak from May 20 to June 25. Cruz’s streak includes only two games when he failed to get hits. He is batting .363 in his surge with 23 runs, 15 doubles, 15 homers and 22 RBI. Bob Dutton, The News Tribune

on Monday. That defeat appeared to eliminate Iowa (3-1) from the semifinals, while fellow Pool B members North Carolina (3-1) and Washington (3-1) advanced based on the tiebreaker — the number of runs allowed during the tournament. But the Iowa team cried foul, and after an investigation, Little League International ruled Washington did not try to win the game, denied South Snohomish its semifinal berth and ordered a one-game play-in against Iowa on Tuesday. Washington lost that contest, 3-2. “It’s been a grind,” Fred Miller said. “Parents and fans leaving notes on our doors, on the girls’ doors, banging on our girls’ doors in the middle of the night trying to wake us up. Speaking under their breath when the kids walk by — it’s been tough.”

Miller said the situation snowballed after the West team became a national news story. South Snohomish players and coaches left for home right after Wednesday’s game instead of staying for the closing ceremonies. In fact, there was discussion of the West team skipping its final game against Uganda, but the players voted unanimously to play. “It’s always good to get a win in the final game,” Miller said. “Obviously, it wasn’t the game we were wanting to play today, but that’s just the way it goes. I think, with all the events that have happened, we were really flat. We’re exhausted. We’re all tired. But we’re really proud of the girls. They did a great job.” Makayla Miller was happy to get the win, but couldn’t help but wonder what might have been. “I wish it would have ended a little bit better. Fifth is great, but ...,” she said, her voice trailing off. Several South Snohomish

Controversy aside, the players enjoyed facing the top teams in the world, including the first squad from Uganda to reach the Little League Softball World Series. “Being at the World Series, that’s cool,” Makayla Miller said. “Playing all the other teams, like Africa, they’ve never been here before, that’s super cool.” For Fred Miller, the most memorable moment of the tournament came in South Snohomish’s 4-3 victory over Iowa on Sunday night. The last game of the day saw the West team rally in the final inning to finish on top. “I don’t think we’ll ever forget the (Iowa) win ...,” Miller said. “The stands were the most electric I’ve ever seen. It was amazing. (Iowa) scored a run in the top of the sixth and for us to come back, and get the winning run in the bottom of the sixth, was pretty impressive. “That was definitely the biggest game we had and the highest moment for us.”

Last November he and the Seahawks lost at Kansas City to fall to 6-4 — the last loss until their second consecutive Super Bowl in February. That was the $700,000-per-year Wilson.

of $21.9 million per year on the four-year contract extension he signed July 31. “I think it shows that hard work pays off,” Wilson said of that journey from then to now. “It’s a collective effort. I’ve been fortunate enough to play with a lot of great players and a great team for three years so far, and we’re looking forward to what’s coming up next. So it’s going to be a lot of fun.” Hopefully for him and backup quarterback R.J. Archer it will more fun than last week’s preseason opener. Denver had seven

sacks, including two of Wilson in two drives; Wilson lost a fumble on the first one at the Seattle 11. The Broncos sprained No. 2 QB Tarvaris Jackson’s ankle. So this week line coach Tom Cable this week changed the starting offensive line. Justin Britt, who started all last season as a rookie at right tackle, will start at left guard Friday. Garry Gilliam, an undrafted rookie in 2014 and college tight end, is now the right tackle. Drew Nowak, a guard on the 2014 practice squad, will apparently start at center against the Chiefs. Is Wilson worried about the

mixing and matching in front of him three weeks before the regular season? “No, I’m not concerned. I have full confidence in those guys up front and they’re going to do a phenomenal job,” he said. “It’s a long season, you know, 16 games. As you guys know in the past three years we’ve had to have guys step up and step in, and that’s great to have versatility up front and guys playing different positions. Coach Cable is going to do a great job of that and See SEAHAWKS, Page C6

Camp ends Wednesday was the 20th and final day of training camp. Veterans get to sleep the rest of the season at home. Rookies, recently signed free agents and the others battling for roster spots without roots around Seattle just yet will remain in the team hotel. So “the end of camp” is not really any different for them. It’s meetings, weight lifting, practice, meetings, hotel, sleep ... and repeat, day after day. And it won’t be any different for Seattle’s secondary. It will remain without Kam Chancellor for the foreseeable future. The team leader and strong safety remains in a holdout with no end in sight. The Seahawks have the right per the league’s collective bargaining agreement to fine him up to maximum of

$850,000 — and counting — not that the team will impose those fines. Waiving the sanctions is about the only “carrot” the Seahawks have offer in this impasse, since Seattle’s $4,898,519 remaining under the NFL salary cap is 27th in the 32-team league (according to overthecap.com). Chancellor remains in his stance against the $4.55 million he is scheduled to earn this year — $4.45 million of it guaranteed. He’s got nothing guaranteed beyond that on a deal he signed before the 2013 season and runs through 2017.

What exactly is keeping him grounded? Why does he say the money hasn’t and won’t change him? It is not just the memory of his Seahawks blowing their chance to win a second consecutive Super Bowl on the 1-yard line in the final seconds Feb. 1 against New England. It’s Wagner’s burden of knowing he could have helped prevent Malcolm Butler and Ricardo Lockette from becoming internationally known stars of the most inexcusable ending ever to a Super Bowl. Seattle led 24-14 with 8 minutes remaining in Super Bowl XLIV. Then its historic defense allowed Tom Brady to throw two touchdown passes in the 28-24 loss most will remember for Butler intercepting Russell Wilson at the goal line. “You know, as much as everyone puts it on the offense for not running the ball at the 1-yard line, we could have stopped them and not even put the offense in that position,”

Wagner said Wednesday. “So we’ve got a lot of talented guys who are going to continue to work hard and grind. I think we have a lot of room for improvement. That’s great. And we feel like we’ve improved so far.” He’s in the middle of perhaps the least-dramatic position group in Seattle’s preseason. Though Kevin Pierre-Louis was sharing first-team time in practice until injuring his shoulder last week, all three starting linebackers are back: Wagner, flanked by recently re-signed K.J. Wright and Bruce Irvin, who is ultramotivated entering the final year of his contract. The linebackers’ mantra has stayed constant even as new position coaches Michael Barrow and Lofa Tatupu have replaced Ken Norton; Oakland hired Norton, the man whom Wagner credits for developing him, to be its defensive coordinator this spring. “Outhit everyone. Make sure you outhit everyone,” Wagner said. “And get the ball.” Relatively soft-spoken with a life that’s as simple as his linebacker credo, Wagner remains the central key to Seattle’s defense and thus the team’s core. The Seahawks were scuffling at

6-4 last season as Wagner was finishing missing five games with a turf-toe ligament injury. Immediately upon his return Seattle won eight straight to make another Super Bowl. His status as indispensable has only increased this month while team leader and strong safety Kam Chancellor has continued his holdout, with no end in sight. That’s the source of what Wagner sees as perhaps the only change in his life this month. “I feel like I’ve always had the respect from the league, from other players. So for me, nothing has changed. I have this mindset,” he said. “Maybe I just speak a little more (with the contract and Chancellor gone). But nothing’s changed on my end.” Friday at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City in the second preseason game, Wagner’s fun will continue. It’s one of four chances before the games get real on Sept. 13 that he’s going to be able to actually tackle somebody, some Chiefs. “We take every game pretty seriously,” he said. “You can just tell looking at our film and everyone else’s. Even the starters, we don’t just go out there

like it doesn’t matter that much, or whatever. We still prepare like it is a regular game. We prepare like we are going to be in there all the game. “We get a chance to go out there and actually tackle guys, so I think of it more as just fun.” Wagner echoed what head coach Pete Carroll said last week, that Seahawks’ starters honestly don’t know how long they are going to play entering each preseason game. Carroll wants his key guys training their minds as if these games are real, for when they start becoming that on Sept. 13. “You just go out there and play,” Wagner said, “until they take your helmet from you.” And you keep staying in that team training-camp hotel until they finally let veterans check out. That was on Wednesday. That alone was worth a couple handstands. Oh, and the one item on which Wagner has apparently splurged. “Ain’t got to stay in that hotel no more!” he bellowed. “That’s the most exciting part of camp. We get to go home and actually sleep in our beds that we paid a lot of money for, and chill.”

Associated Press SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Major injuries marred the first day of a joint practice between Miami Dolphins and Carolina Panthers on Wednesday. Panthers wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin and Dolphins safety Louis Delmas both suffered torn ACLs, ending their seasons. The Dolphins have not announced Delmas’ injury,

which occurred about 20 minutes after Benjamin went down. A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press that for the second time in less than 10 months he has torn the ACL in his right knee. Initially, the Panthers said Benjamin had a sprained knee. However, Benjamin was taken back to Charlotte, North Carolina where an MRI revealed the tear.

delightful dahlias

Marysville gardener and other local dahlia growers will be showing off their finest at annual show

By Andrea Brown Herald Writer

Pretty and prettier. That’s what Dan Phipps calls the varieties of dahlias that Karen Richards, his partner of 27 years, grows in their Marysville yard. Richards, of course, knows the proper names in her garden spread of 200 dahlias, but Phipps is spot-on: These supersized flowers make some of the prettiest blooms ever. She’ll be showing off some of her giants bursts of color at this weekend’s Snohomish County Dahlia Show in Everett. Snohomish County Dahlia Society’s two-day show at Floral Hall in Forest Park is for dahlia devotees as well as dahlia wannabees. Admission is free. So is advice from the experts. “It’s our 106th consecutive year for the show,” club spokesman Hills Collins said. “I expect we’ll have a lot of good blooms this week. We expect to have 2,000 blooms.” Yep, even with the dry summer. “They started blooming awful early,” he said. The bushy, tuberous perennials are native to Mexico and its national flower. With their lanky stems and big blossoms, dahlias are like the giraffes of the garden. “It’s a lot of fun. It’s a lot of work, too,” Richards said.

This veilleuse brought $1,476 at New Orleans Auction in May 2015. It was used in the bedroom late at night to heat tea or soup. There is a modern version of the veilleuse that heats with electricity.

he antiques auction catalog stated there was a rare and valuable “veilleuse” in the next sale. That is a descriptive word a seasoned auction-goer would understand, but the antiques meaning is not in most dictionaries. It is a French word that, when translated to English, means “sofa.” The second meaning in large dictionaries is “small nightlight.” But the current meaning for antiques buyers is an object that is used to warm drinks near a bedside as well as serve as a nightlight.

A small teapot was added to the veilleuse in the early 1800s. The teapot was heated by an oil lamp. A three-part Gothic Revival veilleuse, made in about 1840, was auctioned in May 2015 for $1,476. It was decorated with hand-painted views of people inside a cathedral. The teapot and borders were covered with gold glaze. White beading was on most horizontal edges.

Three tips on color from legendary British designer By Laura Pearson Chicago Tribune

“Conran on Colour,” the latest tome from English designer Terence Conran (who has authored more than 50 books) starts by stating the obvious: “Colour is one of the most dynamic elements in design and decoration.” But get past the superfluous intro, and you’ll find a full palette of inspiring ideas — in both text and especially image. A few takeaways: 1. “Decorative accents are to interiors what accessories are to outfits.” In other words, they complete the look.

PUBLICITY PHOTO

“Conran On Colour” by Terence Conran.

Especially when set against a neutral background, accents of any color —whether a pillow, lampshade, carefully

selected piece of artwork or simple vase of flowers — make a strong, memorable statement. Just be sure you don’t use every accent color in the crayon box, or it will muddle the effect. 2. “The right background color in the right context can be very expressive.” It sounds obvious, but some of us need a reminder. As Conran points out, offwhite walls have become a kind of “default setting” in contemporary homes. Sometimes it’s about minimalism — a deliberate nod to midcentury-modern interiors “with their defiant rejection of superficial decoration”

(the easygoing rooms in Conran’s 1974 “House Book” come to mind) — but often it’s due to a fear of getting it wrong. Don’t be afraid to experiment with color on a large scale, Conran says. 3. “Black can provide graphic contrast.” Feeling dramatic? Introduce the ultimate noncolor into your interiors. “Black can sharpen up detail and introduces a note of formality,” Conran says. If you’re not ready to commit to it as a background color, you can work it into specific details: ebonized floorboards, slate tiles, black leather upholstery or patterned fabric.

Enjoy your yard in privacy A bit of privacy is essential to enjoying the pleasures of summer in your backyard. Even when you’re only a few feet from your neighbors, it’s still possible to tan, share a meal with friends, relax in the spa or stay out on the deck all evening without being subjected to prying eyes.

BACKYARD PRIVACY 1391345

A bit of privacy is important for enjoying the pleasures of summer in your backyard. Hardware

Coniferous trees and shrubs are simple solutions to the privacy question, but you have to have enough space to plant them. If your yard is small or your outdoor seating area is limited to a balcony, you can design an oasis of peace just by installing a trellis. Practical and stylish, trellises provide privacy without looking like a barricade. Hang planters on them, add some fairy lights and decorate them by setting a few colorful pots filled with herbs along the base. You’ll be able to enjoy Landscaping

Flooring

your outdoor space without feeling that everyone is watching you. Do you feel as though a high fence would tower over you and darken the backyard? You’re afraid of offending the neighbors if you build a structure to demarcate your property line? Instead of completely surrounding your yard with a fence or hedge, you could just position some wood screens or trellises in strategic places for a lighter touch. You can also play around with the height and spacing of these screens for a more aesthetic look. This trompe-l’oeil effect is perfect for creating a stylish landscape. Go ahead and talk to landscaping specialists to get more ideas. They’re sure to give you some great advice about how to set up your private little summer haven.

A: Jacob Koenig, was born in Germany in 1862, immigrated to the United States in 1883, and settled in Jersey City, New Jersey. He sold religious items door to door before starting Koenig Brothers.

10 tips to save on your electric bill You might think your appliances aren’t using energy when they’re turned off, but this isn’t always the case.

By Stephanie Figy Angie’s List

o you suffer from sticker shock when you see your monthly electric bill? No matter what your financial situation, paying bills is about as much fun as a root canal. Read on for simple ways to lower your electric bill. Close the curtains. During the summer, close curtains on the sunny side of your house during the day. Alternately, leave them open during a sunny day in the winter. Consider unplugging. You might think your appliances aren’t using energy when they’re turned off, but this isn’t always the case. To avoid using what’s called vampire power, unplug devices when not in use. If the outlets aren’t easily accessible, plug devices into a power strip that you can switch off and on when needed.

systems are old, consider updating to more energy efficient products. The energy savings and tax rebates available prove the investment’s worth. Change your light bulbs.

By 1916, the company was making two lines of fireless cookers, “Ideal” and “Domestic Science.” The cookers worked something like today’s slow cookers, but were heated by hot stones, not a flame. Metal cook pots were set into a wooden box or chest

insulated with asbestos. Cooking could be started early in the day and kept warm to continue cooking for several hours, which saved fuel and kept the kitchen cool. A recipe booklet issued by the company in 1917 claimed The Toledo Cooker Co. was the

largest producer of fireless cookstoves in the world. Value of your cooker, about

at a comfortable temperature in the winter and summer, but program it to raise and lower the temperature when you’re away from your home or sleeping to save on heating and cooling costs. Keep your HVAC unit clear of debris. Shrubbery, branches or debris on or near the system can hinder its overall performance. However, an awning or tree over the unit provides shade, which cuts energy consumption. Plant a tree. Not only are you helping save the planet, but the shade can provide relief on cooling costs. Check for air leaks. Make sure no air is getting through the weather stripping around the windows, doors or attic. Seal any areas where you find leaks. Turn down the heat. Lower your water heater base temperature to 120 degrees. Wash your clothes in cold or warm water when possible, and

only wash when you have a full load. Turn off the heat dry option on your dishwasher. Consult a highly rated, licensed electrician if you have questions about reducing your electric bill. You may also want to consider an energy efficiency home audit to see if additional home maintenance might be needed to save on future energy bills. Don’t forget annual heating and A/C maintenance. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, heating and cooling your home uses more energy than any other system, typically making up 54 percent of your electric bill. Ensure your systems are running at their highest efficiency by hiring highly rated heating and A/C technicians to perform annual cleanings and checkups. Also, be sure to change out your air filters.

$100. Q: I was given a set of dinnerware that belonged to my great-grandmother. She emigrated from Italy in the early 1900s, lived briefly in New York, and then moved to Providence. Pieces are white with green flowers and gold trim. Printed on the bottom of each piece: “Underglaze, J & E Mayer, JUNO.” I have 12 place settings and many serving pieces. I am anxious to learn about this dinnerware for my family history. A: Joseph (?-1930) and Ernest (1857-1920) Mayer bought a waterpowered pottery in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, and founded J & E Mayer in 1881. Their father had operated the Dale Hall Works in Burslem, England. The firm changed its name to Mayer Pottery Co. in 1888. The factory burned down in 1896, but was rebuilt on an even larger scale. After 1912, the company’s primary

product became china for many different restaurants, railroads, ships, airlines and the military. Joseph’s sons continued the business, which was renamed Mayer China Co. in 1923. It became a subsidiary of Shenango China in 1964, was bought by Interpace in 1968, by Richard Rifenburgh in 1979, then by Syracuse China in 1984. The Beaver Falls factory closed in 1990, but Mayer China is still considered a Syracuse China Co. brand name. Given the mark, your great-grandmother’s Juno pattern dinnerware was made in the J & E Mayer era, between 1881 and 1888. Tip: When moving furniture, the simplest way to keep doors closed and drop-leaf table leaves secure is to tie pantyhose around the pieces. Pantyhose are soft and will stretch. And always pick up a table by the apron, never pick it up by just the top.

She enters her dahlias in competitions such as this weekend’s and hopes for the best. “One year you might do good and next year you won’t,” she said. “I call it a crap shoot.” It’s a friendly contest. It’s more about kinship than winning. Her daughter, Allison, of Silver Lake, is also a member of the dahlia society. In fact, Allison got hooked on dahlias first and got her mom started. Mom has more. “I’m retired and she works,” Richards said. “You can spend a lot of time out there.” The payoff is priceless. “Once they start blooming they’ll bloom until the first frost,” Richards said. “They are fairly easy to grow once you get the idea what they need and what they like.

Hubby lacks interest in pregnancy

DAILY CROSSWORD

Carolyn Hax is away. Here is a column from her archive. Dear Carolyn: What’s the best way to involve my husband in my pregnancy so he doesn’t feel left out? He’s a very hands-on type who loses interest in anything he can’t sink his teeth into, and I’m afraid he won’t believe we’re really having a baby till he or she is actually born. — Des Moines Is there anything wrong with that? You say “left out,” but I’m not sure how one can both lose interest and feel left out. It sounds more as if he’s just not that interested right now — meaning, you feel a little lonely. Is that more the dynamic you’re worried about? If you have practical reasons for wanting him to be involved, then those are the things you can ask him to “sink his teeth into.” That can include anything from finishing home projects to researching free or discounted car seats. If you’d like his emotional support, then you probably just have to say so when the time comes. As in, when he has a non-reaction to something you hoped he’d react to, you can point out that you’re feeling hurt by his lack if interest, or feeling a little lonely in this presumably joint life-change. Stay away from the “You always ...” and “You

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT never ...” guilt-traps by using the “I feel ...” construction. Still, your description of him suggests he’ll come around when it counts (after the baby is born), and that his current lack of interest is something you understand as part of his character — and that’s why I asked whether it’s really something to worry about. If I’ve read your question wrong, please write back. Carolyn: I’m just afraid he will detach, when I am hoping he will be here for me and join me in celebrating the milestones, etc. To give an example, about a year ago I wrote a short story that was published in a reputable anthology, and I tried to involve him in the ceremonial stuff. It was my victory and not his, but I expected him to at

least buy me flowers or something. He didn’t even read the story because fiction isn’t his thing. I don’t want my pregnancy to be that way, but already he is backing out of important stuff (early doctor’s visits, telling the family, and so on). — Des Moines Humor me, please, and consider marriage counseling. The fact that he won’t even read your story or share the pregnancy excitement suggests you’re in this marriage alone. If you have to do the counseling alone as well, that’s better than nothing — and speaks volumes in itself. I’m hoping there’s more to it, that he has been involved in your life at other times when it didn’t involve him, that he has shown an ability to be fully engaged in you. But even then, at best, you have a gap between your expectations and the reality of your husband that could lead to serious problems when the work of child-rearing begins. You also have to think not just about your own emotional needs, but also your baby’s. While an emotionally absent father might sow the seeds for literary success in the next generation, I have to think most children would prefer to have Daddy involved.

Teen boys need reliable advice about birth control Dear Abby: In my family alone, three young women have — by their own admission — gotten pregnant on purpose to get their boyfriends to marry and support them. None of these marriages worked out. The horrible relationships were and still are hurtful and damaging, not only to the children, but also to the rest of the family. I’m aware of several other women who have admitted to entrapping their baby daddy by “forgetting to take their pills,” so I know this isn’t just happening in my family. Contraceptive measures for boys are limited and fallible, and I am concerned. My nephews’ mother entrapped their now-absent father, so I doubt she’ll mention this to them. How and when does a relative talk to soon-to-be teen boys about entrapment? — Anonymous Relative Dear Relative: The subject of contraception should be part of an ongoing, ageappropriate conversation about sex and reproduction. Boys and girls mature physically earlier than they did decades ago, and because of the Internet they are often exposed to a wide variety of information. I do think a warning is in order because of your regrettable family situation. However, you should be aware that no law dictates that a man “has” to marry a woman (or girl) he has gotten pregnant. If a paternity test proves he is the father of the baby, he IS required to support his child until the child is no longer a minor. Dear Abby: My widowed mother-in-law began dating a man a few months ago. My husband and I are happy for her because he seems to be a good person. She really seems to enjoy spending time with him.

By Hector Becerra Los Angeles Times

With “Fear the Walking Dead,” the prequel to the hugely popular “The Walking Dead,” AMC will fulfill the desire of Robert Kirkman, creator of the series and the comic book that inspired it, to see a huge city get destroyed by flesheating corpses. The series premieres Sunday and will have Los Angeles eventually overrun by legions of peripatetic zombies known as “walkers.” “We wanted to see a city fall, which is something we didn’t get to see in the comics or the original show,” said Dave Erickson, the new series’ show runner. “I feel what we were able to do was to take the disaster film trope, the zombie film trope and present it in a way where it feels grounded. Where it feels like if this were to happen, this is how it would go down.” AMC executives are hoping the disintegration of Los Angeles will invigorate a lackluster summer lineup and help heal programming wounds left by notable departures. The network has now bid farewell to marquee Emmy-winning shows — “Mad Men” and “Breaking Bad” — and there are high hopes that the spinoff could become a ratings force not unlike the mothership “Dead” series, one of the most-watched shows in television. The series, which will certainly feel familiar to “Dead” fans, is determined

bomb. In 1964, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the Economic Opportunity Act, a nearly $1 billion antipoverty measure. In 1968, the Soviet Union and other Warsaw Pact nations began invading Czechoslovakia to crush the “Prague Spring” liberalization drive. In 1972, the Wattstax concert took place at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. In 1977, the U.S. launched Voyager 2, an unmanned spacecraft carrying a 12-inch copper phonograph record containing greetings in dozens of languages, samples of music and sounds of nature.

Viewers should almost immediately understand they’ll be seeing a different side to the city than is usually presented in other L.A.-centric apocalyptic tales. This will be no glimmering, shimmering cliche portrait of L.A., where most of the show’s exterior shots were filmed. (Most interior sequences were done in Vancouver.) Instead, much of the early action will be centered in neighborhoods in L.A.’s Eastside, including Wilson High School in El Sereno, a view of Silver Lake just off of Sunset, the L.A. River and a humble Denny’s a few blocks from the county jail in downtown.

coma — how did the zombie armies spread in that time? The spinoff picks up before the zombie infestation has exploded, and part of its narrative spine is to demonstrate the unraveling of civilization as the soulless menace slowly unfolds. Unlike the original, set largely in rural pockets around Atlanta, the spinoff is based in a highly urbanized area. With millions of people — and potential undead — spread over hours of driving before reaching true isolation, Southern California and its endless patchwork of urban and dense suburban neighborhoods presents a different kind of zombie fighting and escape from the original series. When things go full apocalypse in L.A., just imagine the Battle of Stalingrad on every block but waged between millions of the living and rotting cannibals instead of Germans

and Russians. And think you can just hop on your car — preferably a hybrid with good mileage — and head for the desert? “Everyone gets the same idea eventually and everyone gets trapped,” Erickson said. “It’s the cities that fall the fastest.” It probably wasn’t a surprise that after a fire jumped over Interstate 15 in the Cajon Pass last month, sending panicked people fleeing from cars that would be transformed into burned-out shells on the freeway, one of the most common comparisons on social media was to scenes of abandoned cars from “The Walking Dead.” In the spinoff’s premiere episode, there’s a scene in which two of the lead characters, played by Kim Dickens (“Deadwood,” “Treme”) and Cliff Curtis (“Training Day,” “Collateral Damage”), are driving on an L.A. freeway at night. Traffic suddenly stops and you can hear the sound of police giving orders through a bullhorn from one of the thrumming helicopters hovering ominously with blinking lights overhead. There’s the sound of gunfire. The protagonists eventually manage to speed off around the stop without knowing that something horrifying transpired. It’s an eerie scene because even at that moment, without seeing anything more than the characters did, viewers will know what they don’t: It’s beginning.
