EVERETT — Work has started to shore up the worst of the slipping, sliding coastal bluffs above the railroad tracks between Everett and Mukilteo. Mudslides pose a seasonal nuisance — and danger — for Sounder commuters, Amtrak passengers and freight trains. The state Department of Transportation, BNSF Railway and other partners completed work last year at two trouble spots. Crews on Aug. 15 resumed their efforts and are scheduled to finish four related projects by the end of the year. “The two that were completed last year, there were no (new) landslides at all in those areas,” said Janet Matkin, WSDOT’s rail communications manager. “We’re hopeful that that’s true for the for remaining ones that we’re doing this year.” Measures include building walls to hold back debris, installing fences with landslide-detection sensors and improving drainage. The work is part of a $16.1 million effort focused on the Everett-to-Seattle rail corridor, where hundreds of landslides have occurred over the past decade. It follows a plan that state agencies and BNSF drew up with help from local governments.

EVERETT — A team of Snohomish County firefighters was redeployed from Chelan to Twisp on Wednesday afternoon. They arrived, got their assignments and, again, headed toward flames. Hours later, three federal firefighters working alongside them were dead. On Thursday, more than 60 local firefighters continued to work at the now-fatal fires blazing across Eastern Washington. “It impacts them heavily,” said Gold Bar Fire Chief Eric Andrews, who coordinates wildfire response from this part of the state. “They all know that those guys started the same day as they

off a flurry of anxious phone calls. Firefighters near Twisp were climbing ridges, trying to get cellphone service so they could communicate, Andrews said. Snohomish County’s fire danger is almost as bad as conditions east of the Cascade Range. Only six brush trucks — skeleton crews — remain here in case of a wildfire. Some but not all of those folks have advanced wildfire training, Andrews said. “The only ingredient we’re missing here is wind,” he said. “If we have the wind over here they have over there, we’re just a tinderbox waiting.” Local crews sent to the Eastern Washington fires come from Arlington, Arlington Rural, Bothell, Clearview, Everett,

Getchell, Gold Bar, Lake Roesiger, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood and Monroe. Their deployments range from three days to two weeks. Their assignments can shift daily. As of Thursday afternoon, requests continued for additional help. “Everything that can be coordinated to go over has gone over,” Andrews said. “We have nothing left to send. ... We’ve got to keep skeleton crews here.” The fire danger remains high on this side of the mountains, despite the recent rain and more predicted early Friday. Fires have been sparked here in recent weeks by lawn mowers, car exhaust systems and oily rags. Highway 20 was closed Thursday because of fires on both sides of the Cascade Range, including flames near Newhalem.

If a wind-driven wildfire strikes in Snohomish County, there will be little firefighters can do to protect homes. About half of the homes destroyed in wildfires start ablaze due to embers dropping on roofs. At least three houses burned in Snohomish County this month, including one fire that jumped roofs. Burn bans remain in place for the foreseeable future. Wednesday’s deaths are a stark reminder of the dangers this season. Local crews have their guards up about safety while they’re out working, Andrews said. The deaths reinforce the importance of vigilance for crews fighting wildfires. “Those guys started the day just like they did and they didn’t come home,” he said.

Mandatory evacuation order for Tonasket TONASKET — Authorities issued a mandatory evacuation order for Tonasket as wildfires fanned by high winds raged out of control. The Okanogan County Emergency Management department issued the order for the town of 1,000 people Thursday evening. Residents were told a shelter was open at Brewster High School. Officials had warned that winds topping 40 miles per hour would complicate efforts firefighting efforts Thursday and that the blazes would almost certainly spread. Gov. Jay Inslee said more than 450 square miles were burning in the state this year, an increase from about 390 square miles last year.

State officials seek help from equipment operators With wildfires straining resources, Washington officials say that for the first time in state history they’re coordinating help from residents who have and can operate equipment such as backhoes and bulldozers to dig fire lines. The Department of Natural Resources said its command posts have

been inundated with offers. Public Lands Commissioner Peter Goldmark said his agency appreciates the support, but he wants the fire officers on scene to be able to stay focused on actually fighting fires. Instead, the agency has set up coordination centers in Omak and Colville, where equipment operators can get training in how to deploy emergency shelters and other basics. Some 80 equipment operators earned their certification at a training session in Colville earlier this month. DNR said the centers will direct the citizens to where they can be useful without jeopardizing safety. Deployment to a wildfire will depend on the availability of professional firefighting staff to escort and direct the volunteers.

Aid from Down Under Australia and New Zealand are sending firefighters to help battle wildfires burning in the western U.S. The National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, said Thursday that top fire managers representing various U.S. agencies requested about 70 fire managers and specialists from the two countries. After a one-day orientation to learn about current fire behavior they will be assigned to large fires. From Herald news services

Firefighters mourned: ‘A hole in our state’s heart’ By Brian Skoloff and Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

TWISP — The firefighters — members of a specially trained unit that is sent into danger ahead of everyone else to size up a wildfire — rushed up a narrow, winding gravel road with steep hills on either side. It proved to be a deathtrap. Their vehicle crashed, and before they could escape, flames rolled over them, killing three firefighters inside and injuring four others nearby, one critically, authorities said. The tragedy Wednesday night cast a pall in Washington and brought to 13 the number of firefighters killed across the West this year during one of the driest and most explosive wildfire seasons on record. The blazes have “burned a big hole in our state’s heart,” Gov. Jay Inslee lamented Thursday, describing the outbreak as an “unprecedented cataclysm.” “These are three big heroes protecting small

towns,” the governor said, urging residents to “thank a firefighter.” Fire officials with notebooks and cameras walked the hills and banks near Woods Canyon Road outside Twisp, investigating how the disaster happened. Authorities gave few details, shedding no light, for example, on the crash, other than to say that it was not the accident itself that killed the victims, but the fire. The deaths happened in the scenic Methow River

valley about 115 miles northeast of Seattle, where a series of blazes covering close to 140 square miles had merged. The flames burned an undetermined number of homes and triggered orders .... to about 1,300 people in the outdoor-recreation communities of Twisp and Winthrop to evacuate. “It was a nightmare,” Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers said. “Everything was burning.” He added, “We know it was a firestorm in there.” All the dead were U.S. Forest Service firefighters. The agency identified them as Tom Zbyszewski, 20; Andrew Zajac, 26; and Richard Wheeler, 31. Their hometowns weren’t immediately released. Zbyszewski was a junior at Whitman College in Walla Walla, majoring in physics and active in the school’s theater department, the college’s president said in a statement. He was fighting a fire near his hometown of Carlton when he died. Zbyszewski’s parents had both fought wildfires for the Forest Service, and his

mother, Jennifer, still works for the agency, overseeing trails and campgrounds in Okanogan National Forest. They said he enjoyed the work and he felt it was important to be able to protect the homes of people he knew. “He only had a week to go and he’d be back in college,” his sobbing father, Richard, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. “I fought fires for years and years and years — I never even got burned. I wish it was me. I’m an old man.” All three men were from highly specialized crews that go into dangerous areas as fast as they can to examine a scene and report back to commanders on what needs to be done, said Bill Queen, a firefighting spokesman. “It just kind of exploded and they got caught in a burn over,” said Queen, referring to what happens when conditions change so rapidly that flames overtake firefighters. Nearly 29,000 firefighters — 3,000 of them in Washington — are battling some 100 large blazes across the drought- and heat-stricken West, including Idaho, Oregon, Montana and California. Conditions deteriorated in Washington on Thursday, with high winds and high temperatures. Jessica Gardetto of the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, said the 13 dead firefighters so far is a relatively high number. There were 10 fatalities

last year and 15 in 2012. But there were 34 in 2013, including 19 members of an elite firefighting crew killed by an out-of-control wildfire near the small town of Yarnell, Arizona. Of the injured in Washington, the most seriously hurt is Daniel Lyon, 25, of Puyallup. The Forest Service employee had burns over 60 percent of his body and was listed in critical condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, the Forest Service said. Two of the injured work for the state Department of Natural Resources and one is a contractor with that agency. They have been released from the hospital, DNR spokeswoman Carrie McCausland said. She declined to release their names. Rick McCauley, a manager at Sun Mountain Lodge, which sits at the end of an 18-mile road winding through forests from the town of Winthrop, said he had about 70 rooms filled when he decided to evacuate the hotel. “We looked at the fire coming over the hill and made the decision to clear everyone out,” he said. “There’s only one road in and out, so we don’t want to take any chances.” Steve Morse, who lives near the Twisp fire, said he watched flames “kind of hop-scotching these ridges, working toward our house.” “I can’t even imagine. To lose your life fighting fire, it’s horrible for a family, and it’s just a bad deal,” he said.

Highway 9’s zigzag no mistake

The safest distance between two points may not be a straight line By Melissa Slager Herald writer

BRYANT — No, it was not some precise paint-spilling mistake. There really is supposed to be a zigzagging white line down the middle of the lane. Washington State Department of Transportation crews painted the zigzagging pavement markings in both directions of Highway 9 approaching the Centennial Trail crossing, near Stanwood-Bryant Road, over the weekend of Aug. 14-15. The 200-foot markings aim to remind drivers to slow down as they approach the trail crosswalk and watch for pedestrians and bicyclists. “A lot of times when we’re driving on rural highways like that it can be easy to zone out and not notice signs,” spokesman Mike Allende said. “So having a unique marking in the middle of the road

will hopefully increase driver compliance with slowing down near crosswalks.” Allende said the markings are used extensively in Europe (including the iconic Abbey Road crossing from the Beatles album). They’ve also been used in Virginia and Hawaii. But this is a first for Washington. Two spots on Highway 20 in Concrete also will be getting the markings. The total project cost for the three spots is expected to fall under $6,000. “We’re going to be evaluating them and, if they’re successful, we might consider them in the future as possible low-cost alternatives to installing electrical crosswalk indicators in particular spots,” Allende said. In the United Kingdom, these are called “zebra crossings.” That country also has crossings named for pelicans, puffins, toucans and pegasus.

Robbery details emerge EVERETT — More details have emerged in an Everettarea home-invasion robbery that ended in north Seattle after a police chase on I-5. A man was able to escape the home in the 8700 block of Gothic Way. He called 911 shortly after 2 p.m. and was able to give police a description of the suspects’ car. Three men armed with handguns forced their way into the home and kept their faces covered, according to a Snohomish County sheriff’s office probable cause statement. Initial reports indicated that there were two suspects. One of the suspects — a Shoreline man, 31 — was arrested and booked into the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of robbery and burglary. The other two got away. The man who was captured was bitten on the shoulder by a police dog. While getting medical treatment for his bite, the man allegedly said he wished police would have shot him. “The suspects were not known nor were (they) recognizable to the victims,” sheriff’s office spokeswoman Shari Ireton said. The suspects allegedly demanded money and marijuana during the break-in and stole two military-style rifles. They allegedly reached speeds of 100 mph on I-5 while trying to get away in a 1997 Acura with its trunk open. The car blew a tire after running over a spike strip. It left I-5 at 145th Street NE, drove off the roadway about 30 yards and crashed through a fence at the northwest corner of the Jackson Golf Course. The suspect vehicle was impounded for evidence.

Anne Tyson, a community field representative with Guide Dogs for the Blind in Washington, said WSU is very supportive of the program. “We like the puppies to experience a lot of things as they mature. We like raisers to take them to a few new places each week, to experience sights, smells and other dogs,” Tyson said. She listed three Cs that are good traits in a guide dog: “calm, cooperative and confident.” The organization has about 850 dogs in training, Tyson said.

She’s sitting in the break room at work right now, lying here sleeping,” she said Thursday. Apricot helps her get around, inside and outside. “More than that, it seems like she’s almost reading your mind sometimes,” Rathwell said. “It’s definitely a strong bond.” Apricot has her own Facebook page. The lab puppies — Jane and Jalina — do, too. The Everett women miss the first dog they helped raised but are glad their efforts are appreciated by someone needing a guide dog.

Unstable ground slows body recovery after Alaska slides By Mark Thiessen Associated Press

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Crews searching for the body of the last man believed buried by a landslide in a coastal Alaska town sifted log-by-log Thursday through a debris field, careful not to trigger any more movement of the mass of unstable, tree-tangled muck. “They are picking up, basically, one log at a time, and looking all under and all over that one piece of material,” Sitka Deputy Fire Chief Al Stevens said. “It’s a slow, methodical process, and we have to be very careful.” Two bodies have been recovered in or near a home that was under construction. Their identities were withheld. Logs, mud and other debris have collected at the end of the slide area, and officials were considering whether to use large boulders to form a barrier to stop further movement. The sun was out Thursday, but more heavy rain was forecast Friday and into the weekend, with Sitka expected to get 2 to 3

The theme of “Audacity” is that Christians who speak up about their belief that homosexuality is a choice aren’t trying

to spread hate or hurt someone, but are doing it to warn people and save them from God’s wrath. The cakes, which have a red heart on top with “We really do love you!” written across it in frosting, were sent to organizations in California and Nevada. One of the groups that received a cake Thursday, Equality California, said it considered the package a publicity stunt.

Workers have been able to improve drainage in the debris field and cut troughs in the slide area.

TV Talk Show Doctor's Shocking Revelation If you suffer bouts of acid reflux, heartburn, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, gas or IBS; beware of digestion remedies like Prilosec®, Prevacid® and Nexium®... They Can Cripple You! By Damian Wexler, Freelance Health Reporter ecently, medical professionals and alternative medicine experts have taken to the airways to reveal a simple secret that amazed millions who suffer with digestion nightmares. And people haven’t stopped talking about it since.

“I’d give anything to make it stop!”

FDA Warns About Popular Antacids A recent FDA warning explained that excessive use of antacids could lead to an increased risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures. Especially in people over the age of 50. So when AloeCure® was presented on National TV, you can imagine how thrilled people were to find out they could finally get relief without having to rely on pharmaceutical proton pump inhibitors. But now, your stomach problems could be over by simply drinking a small amount of a tasty Aloe Vera extract everyday. It’s as simple as that!

Drug Companies Threatened by Natural Digestion Miracle Nationwide Relief... Over 4-million bottles sold! Seattle, WA: All across the country, those suffering with digestion issues are thrilled with the relief they get from a new, natural remedy called AloeCure®. “More than ever, digestion sufferers are flocking to our remarkable product; especially since the FDA has come down so hard on popular antacids like Nexium®, Prilosec®, Prevacid® and other proton pump inhibitors.

Unlike drug company remedies, AloeCure® isn’t a drug. It’s something completely different. AloeCure® not only squelches your digestion problems… It helps improve your digestion for longlasting relief. You really have to try for yourself. That’s why I’ve given the readers of this newspaper an opportunity to try AloeCure® absolutely risk-free. (See bottom of article) -Doug Jewett, CEO American Global Health Group

Finally There’s Hope... At first, the thought of drinking aloe vera might make some people back away. But in fact, this delicious “digestion cocktail” is doing amazing things for people who suffer with digestive problems --- even if they’ve had them for years. Here’s how it works…

Stop Stomach Indigestion

1395784

Your stomach naturally produces acid so strong, it can dissolve an aluminum spoon in just 30 minutes! And when excess acid escapes into your esophagus, throat and stomach lining, it unleashes the discomfort of Acid-Reflux, heartburn, ulcers and more misery. Add the problems of stress, and “all heck breaks loose.” Dr. Liza Leal, a well known expert on chronic pain management explains... “The AloeCure® can work genuine miracles. It buffers high acid levels with amazing

Doctor recommended AloeCure® may be the most important application ever discovered for digestive health!

speed. So your stomach feels completely at ease just moments after drinking it.” In fact, it could wipe out stomach discomfort and frantic runs to the bathroom.

Until Now, Little Could Be Done... But “AloeCure® can help virtually anyone. Even people with chronic stomach indigestion can start to feel better right away,” says Dr. Leal. And what’s really exciting is AloeCure® aids in keeping your digestive tract healthy, so with regular use intestinal distress stops coming back. As Ralph Burns goes on to say, “I know AloeCure® never claimed to be a substitute for drug store products and is only meant to be a helpful supplement. Now though, AloeCure® is the only product I need for all my digestion issues”

Digestion Defender #1: Balances Stomach Acid Your first line of defense is calcium malate. This natural acid buffer instantly sends stomach acid levels plunging. And holds acid levels down so they are not likely to return!

Digestion Defender #2: Instant, Soothing Relief AloeCure® is brimming with polysaccharides, a “wonder” compound that gently coats the throat, esophagus and stomach, carrying instant relief to cells scorched by excess acid.

Here’s What Doctors Are Saying! AloeCure® is backed by important scientific studies that confirm... aloe calms stomach acid and allows your body to heal itself. Dr. Liza Leal, M.D & Chief Medical Officer at Meridian Medical. says, “That’s why I recommend it to patients who suffer from bouts of heartburn, Acid-Reflux, ulcers, and irritable bowel syndrome...”

from experience that some drivers wait until the last minute to prepare, inundating the customer center, so take action now to avoid the lines.” The $155 million project is creating two express toll lanes in each direction of I-405 between NE Sixth Street in Bellevue and just south of Highway 522 in Bothell and one between Highway 522 in Bothell and I-5 in Lynnwood. And it’s not quite done. Lane closures and detours loom in the coming weeks as crews stripe the two express lanes and paint double white lines that are intended to prevent access to the lanes except at designated areas. When the lanes open next month, riders on Community Transit buses should notice a change, too. On the I-405 corridor,

Community Transit serves riders on two of its own routes plus two Sound Transit routes. It also has 130 vanpools traveling up and down that stretch of interstate. “With the new express toll lanes, we expect transit to have a quicker ride on I-405. That’s a great benefit for bus riders, and we anticipate we’ll see even more riders once the tolls go into effect,” said Community Transit spokesman Martin Munguia. Meanwhile, the Washington State Patrol will be stepping up its presence once the lanes are operating. Troopers will be keeping an eye out for drivers illegally crossing the double white lines. That violation could result in a $136 ticket. They’ll also be looking for drivers trying to travel toll-free as a carpool when there are not enough

people in the vehicle to qualify. That ticket costs $136 as well. Turns out the system is designed to help nab such scofflaws. When a car with its transponder set to the HOV mode passes under one of the overhead beacons, it triggers a flash of white light. That’s the signal it is getting treated as a carpool and not charged. If troopers see that vehicle has too few occupants to be a carpool, they could pull them over. Troopers probably won’t be writing tickets those first few days, however. There will be a period of educating drivers before enforcement begins though how long has not been decided, said Sgt. Paul Cagle of the Washington State Patrol.

Tracks: $2M earmarked From Page A1

One of last year’s projects was along Everett’s shoreline and the other near the south end of Mukilteo’s Harbour Pointe neighborhood. Together, they cost about $4.4 million, Matkin said. Three of the upcoming projects are in the Mukilteo area, the other in Everett. BNSF and its predecessors have been coping with landslides on this corridor ever since tracks were laid in 1893. In times past, BNSF focused more on stabilizing slopes in north Seattle and Shoreline, railroad spokesman Gus Melonas said. “The last decade, we’ve seen the most activity from Edmonds to Mukilteo to Everett,” he said. “That’s the area we’re focusing on now. But we’ll continue to focus on the entire corridor from Vancouver, Washington, to Vancouver, B.C.” During the past three years, two trains have been hit by debris while passing through Everett. An additional worry has cropped up over with the recent surge in tanker cars carrying highly volatile crude oil. Up to 15 trains travel through Snohomish County every week with 1 million gallons or more of crude from the Bakken oil fields, according to BNSF’s most recent estimate. Firefighters said they lack the equipment to extinguish

the kind of fire that could result, and would focus instead on keeping the blaze contained and evacuating the area. One of the new construction projects aims to stabilize the hillside near the south end of the Port of Everett property below Rucker Hill. It’s the same spot where a mudslide knocked several freight cars off their tracks in December 2012, Melonas said. No injuries resulted from that slide or another one that hit an Amtrak train carrying passengers near Howarth Park in April 2013. For decades, the railroad has followed a strict protocol regarding mudslides, Melonas said. The railroad halts all passenger trains for 48 hours to clean debris from the tracks and ensure the area is stable. Freight trains, which travel at slower speeds, resume sooner. “Since the early days of operations, if we feel that it’s necessary we will shut the line down,” he said. Commuting on Sounder trains between Everett and Seattle can be hit or miss when rain makes the ground unstable. Mudslides forced Sound Transit to cancel 135 trips there from November and this past March, agency spokeswoman Kimberly Reason said. The Sounder makes eight trips on weekdays: four from Everett to Seattle in the morning, and four back in

the evening. Slides also forced the cancellation of eight Amtrak trains this past winter. They disrupted another 43 Amtrak trains, meaning passengers had to get on a bus to travel around the blockage. That’s far lower than the winter of 2011, when slides forced the cancellation of 84 Amtrak trains. As part the ongoing slope-stabilization work, Sound Transit is installing four rain gauges and two monitoring stations along the route, Reason said. Installation began in July and is scheduled to finish up this month. Monitoring stations can measure precipitation and soil saturation to help track the wet conditions most often associated with trigger slides. The new gauges add to one already in place near Everett Station. Don’t expect work to stop once the four slopestabilization projects are complete this year. State lawmakers have earmarked roughly $2 million per year over the next 16 years to address landslide problems along train tracks in Western Washington, said the WSDOT’s Matkin. BNSF’s Melonas said the work that’s under way “is the not the first and will not be the last.” Noah Haglund: 425339-3465; nhaglund@ heraldnet.com. Twitter: @ NWhaglund.

Dr. Santiago Rodriguez agrees. “Just two ounces of AloeCure® reduces the acids in your stomach by ten times.” Francisco DeWeever, a Certified Nutritional Microscopist, “My patients report their IBS, Crohn’s, Colitis, Constipation, AcidReflux and a host of other digestive problems have all but disappeared.” After conducting an unpaid investigation about AloeCure® claims and success stories, pure Aloe Vera extract like AloeCure® may be the most important application ever discovered for digestive health.

OLYMPIA — A divided Washington Supreme Court ruled Thursday that a first-in-the-nation initiative to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour in the city of SeaTac should apply to thousands of workers at the airport. In its 5-4 ruling, the majority upheld the entirety of Proposition 1, writing that there was no indication that the law would interfere with airport operations. SeaTac’s minimum wage was raised to $15 an hour in 2014, and increased again to $15.24 this January because it is tied to the consumer price index. SeaTac was the first city in the nation to adopt a $15 minimum wage, but was followed soon after by Seattle. Seattle’s law, adopted last year, bumped the city’s minimum wage to $11 an hour beginning April 1, above Washington state’s highest-in-the-nation minimum of $9.47. Scheduled increases will bring the minimum to $15 within four years for large businesses and seven years for smaller ones. Los Angeles and San Francisco have also enacted $15 minimum wages, and other cities are considering following suit. Residents of SeaTac, the city of about 28,000 people that surrounds Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, voted in November 2013 to raise its minimum wage and give workers other protections, like paid sick leave. A month later, a King County Superior Court judge ruled that the law does not apply to the airport because it is controlled by the Port of Seattle. In that ruling, Judge Andrea Darvas said that while the new law did apply to hotel and parking lot workers in SeaTac, it didn’t extend to employees and contractors at the airport. Proponents of the new law say that 1,300 people in the transportation and hospitality sectors off airport grounds receive the higher pay now, and that another 4,700 on airport grounds

will benefit from Thursday’s ruling — including back pay. In a written statement, Heather Weiner, a spokeswoman for SeaTac Committee for Good Jobs, said that airport employees were celebrating “that they will finally get the fair pay and paid sick leave approved by the voters 20 months ago.” The high court heard the case in June 2014. Businesses, including Alaska Airlines and the Washington Restaurant Association, and the Port of Seattle argued that the airport is run according to state and federal law, not local ordinances. Labor groups that sponsored the initiative have said one of their aims was to improve working conditions at the airport. Officials with the Port of Seattle put out a written statement saying that the decision was being reviewed, and it noted that Port of Seattle employees’ wages are higher than the initiative’s minimum rate. Alaska Airlines spokeswoman Bobbie Egan wrote in an email that the company was also reviewing the decision “as we determine the appropriate next steps.” Cecelia Cordova, an attorney representing concessionaire Filo Foods, said that there’s a concern about how the ruling could ultimately affect the employees the proposition sought to help. She said that for businesses that have a tight margin, the ruling could lead to cutting back employees’ hours. The majority opinion, written by Justice Susan Owens, said that the state statutes surrounding jurisdiction over the airport were ambiguous. The majority also cited an argument that state laws on minimum wage require that employees receive the most favorable rate, whether set by state, federal or local ordinances.

July was hottest on record Associated Press WASHINGTON — Earth just keeps getting hotter. July was the planet’s warmest month on record, smashing old marks, U.S. weather officials said. And it’s almost a dead certain lock that this year will beat last year as the warmest year on record, they said. July’s average temperature was 61.86 degrees Fahrenheit, beating the previous global mark set in 1998 and 2010 by about one-seventh of a degree, according to figures released Thursday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. That’s a large margin for weather records, with previous monthly heat records broken by a 20th of a degree or less. “It just reaffirms what we already know: that the Earth is

warming,” said NOAA climate scientist Jake Crouch. “The warming is accelerating and we’re really seeing it this year.” NOAA records go back to 1880. Separate calculations by NASA and the Japanese weather agency also found July 2015 to be a record. The first seven months of 2015 were the hottest January-to-July span on record, according to NOAA. The sevenmonth average temperature of 58.43 degrees is 1.53 degrees warmer than the 20th-century average and a sixth of a degree warmer than the old record set in 2010. Given that the temperatures have already been so high already — especially the oceans, which are slow to cool — NOAA climate scientist Jessica Blunden said she is “99 percent certain” that 2015 will

be the hottest on record for the globe. The oceans would have to cool dramatically to prevent it, and they are trending warmer, not cooler, she said. Crouch, Blunden and other scientists outside of the government said these temperatures are caused by a combination of man-made climate change and a strong, near-record El Nino. An El Nino is a warming of the equatorial Pacific Ocean that alters weather worldwide for about a year. The oceans drove the globe to record levels. Not only were the world’s oceans the warmest they’ve been in July, but they were 1.35 degrees warmer than the 20th-century average. The heat hit hard in much of Europe and the Middle East. It was the hottest July on record in Austria, where records go back to 1767. Parts of France

had temperatures that were on average 7 degrees above normal and temperatures broke 100 in the Netherlands, which is a rarity. And an Iranian city had a heat index (the “feels like” temperature) of 165 degrees, which was still not quite a record. Nine of the 10 hottest months on record have happened since 2005, according to NOAA. Twenty-two of the 25 hottest months on record have occurred after the year 2000. The other three were in 1998 and 1997. It doesn’t matter if a month or a year is No. 1 or No. 2 or No. 5 hottest on record, said University of Georgia climate scientist Marshall Shepherd. “I am more concerned about how the Earth is starting to respond to the changes and the implications for my children.”

Baltimore outdoes New York’s killings BALTIMORE — Baltimore has surpassed New York City for homicides this year. A New York police spokeswoman said the city had seen 208 homicides as of Wednesday. Baltimore recorded its 212th homicide Wednesday night. New York has more than 8.4 million people, Baltimore just 620,000. New York peaked with 2,245 homicides in 1990, but that number has been tumbling and hit a historic low in 2014, with 328. Baltimore saw a peak of 353 killings in 1993, and recorded 211 homicides in 2014. Adjusted for population, Baltimore’s murder rate through Aug. 19 is 34 per 100,000 people, while New York’s so far this year is 2.5 per 100,000.

Nevada: 767 emergency An airport official said a commercial airliner bound from New York to Los Angeles made an unscheduled stop in Las Vegas after pilots reported a concern about an engine. No one was injured and firefighters found no immediate danger after Delta Air Lines flight 459 landed about 9:30 p.m. Wednesday at McCarran International Airport, with 156 passengers and crew aboard. An airport spokeswoman said Thursday the twin-engine Boeing 767-300 taxied to a gate under its own power.

First women earn Ranger tab Associated Press

FORT BENNING, Ga. — The first two women to pass the Army’s notoriously difficult Ranger School impressed male classmates left in their dust during road marches and proved their mettle as teammates by helping carry heavy weapons when others were too fatigued to lift another ounce. As the Pentagon weighs a decision on allowing women to serve in combat jobs long held by men only, a Ranger School comrade offered a blunt assessment of Capt. Kristen Griest and 1st Lt. Shaye Haver as they spoke Thursday. “They can serve by my side anytime because I know I can trust them,” 2nd Lt. Erickson Krogh said. “Especially these two. I’d have no qualms about serving with them in combat.” Griest, 26, of Orange, Connecticut, and Haver, 25, of Copperas Cove, Texas, will become the first women to wear the Army’s coveted Ranger tab when they graduate alongside 94 male soldiers Friday at Fort Benning. Despite proving their grit in the two-month Ranger course, the two women are still unable to join infantry, armor and special forces units — including the 75th Ranger Regiment. That could change next year after the Pentagon makes its recommendations.

At a news conference Friday, the women stopped short of saying they earned a place in combat units by finishing the notoriously grueling two-month Ranger course — something only about 3 percent of Army soldiers accomplish. But Griest said she hopes the achievement at least carries some weight in the final decisions. “I’m definitely interested to see what new doors do open up for women,” said Griest, a military police officer and Afghanistan veteran stationed at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. She said she might be interested in a special forces career if that path was open to her. Haver, an Apache helicopter pilot stationed at Fort Carson, Colorado, said she plans to stick with aviation. She acknowledged going into Ranger School with some doubts as to how male soldiers would react. “It’s pretty cool that they have accepted us,” she said. “We ourselves came into this with our guard up just in case there were haters or naysayers. But we didn’t come with chips on our shoulders like we had anything to prove.” Several male classmates chosen by the Army to attend a news conference with Griest and Haver acknowledged they, too, weren’t sure at first that female soldiers could handle long marches and patrols

carrying rucksacks, rifles and other gear weighing 100 pounds or more. Spc. Christopher Carvalho, a medic in the same Ranger school class, said his skepticism ended on the first road march when the women left many of their male counterparts far behind. “Right then and there that’s what validated me to say these women are here to stay,” Carvalho said. Classmates 2nd Lt. Michael Janowski and 2nd Lt. Zachary Hanger both told of how Haver and Griest jumped in to help carry heavy loads when other male trainees were too fatigued to assist. Hanger called the women “absolutely physical studs.” Haver and Griest — both graduates of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point — not only finished the course they started in April. They both had to start from scratch, having failed two previous attempts. “These two soldiers have absolutely earned the respect of every Ranger instructor,” Command Sgt. Major Curtis Arnold said. “They do not quit and they do not complain.” Arnold said he suspects Haver and Griest had extra motivation to graduate “because you know everyone is watching. And truthfully there are probably a few folks who want you to fail. So you’ve got

to put out 110 percent.” Both women were among 19 female soldiers who enrolled in Ranger school in April. During the last of their three attempts, 364 soldiers started and only 96 finished. Before this spring, only men had been allowed to enroll since the Ranger School opened in 1972. Ranger School teaches soldiers combat skills, from standard patrols to raids and air assaults, while pushing the limits of the trainees’ physical and mental endurance. It’s considered one of the most difficult courses in the Army. Soldiers spend days scaling mountains in north Georgia and slogging through swampy terrain in Florida. They travel long distances by foot carrying rucksacks, weapons and other gear weighing 100 pounds or more. And they don’t get much chance to rest or refuel. For much of the course, Ranger trainees are fed just twice a day, eating nothing but military rations sealed in plastic bags. Many nights they get only a single hour of sleep. “You’re way too tired and way too hungry to care” about the gender of fellow Ranger School classmates, said Staff Sgt. Michael Calderon, one of the women’s classmates. “In your mind you knew what was going on, but at the end of the day everyone was a Ranger.”

Trump keeps boosting TV ratings Los Angeles Times Donald Trump’s surprisingly durable campaign for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination continues to be ratings rocket fuel for TV news. An hourlong interview with Trump taped earlier in the day with CNN’s “New Day” coanchor Chris Cuomo drew 1.1 million in the 6 p.m. PT time slot Wednesday, according to Nielsen. The audience is the largest for the cable news channel in that hour since April 28, when it covered the anti-police riots in Baltimore. Among viewers in

the 25-to-54 age group, the hour scored 369,000 viewers. CNN was still second in the hour to “The Kelly File” on Fox News Channel, which had 2.6 million viewers (Martha MacCallum filled in for the vacationing Megyn Kelly). But Fox News has already seen what Trump can do to its ratings, as the channel’s Republican primary debate drew a record-setting 24 million viewers on Aug. 6. CNN will air the next GOP debate, scheduled for Sept. 16 at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley,

California, and there already is anticipation among some in the TV news industry that the audience could be even larger. Before the CNN interview aired, all three major cable news networks went live around 4 p.m. PT with Trump’s news conference and “town hall” appearance in Derry, New Hampshire. MSNBC and CNN saw a lift in their audience levels compared to earlier in the week, while Fox News, which typically leads in the hour, was about the same. Trump also boosted the Sunday morning audience for

NBC’s “Meet The Press” to its highest level since Feb. 9, 2014. NBC political director Chuck Todd interviewed Trump while he stumped in Iowa, the real estate mogul’s first appearance on the program as a candidate. The extended coverage on cable news indicates that Trump’s candidacy has transitioned from what looked like a novelty to a full-blown movement as he remains the front-runner in every poll of Republican contenders. But the ratings are likely making it an easy decision to spend more time on him.

The lawyer representing Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who left his infantry post and was held by the Taliban for five years, said Thursday that callous statements Donald Trump is making about his client are threatening the soldier’s right to a fair trial. In a town hall earlier this week in New Hampshire, the GOP presidential candidate called Bergdahl a “dirty, rotten traitor” and denounced the Obama administration’s decision to exchange Bergdahl in May 2014 for five Taliban leaders from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Arkansas: Duggar apology Josh Duggar of “19 Kids and Counting” fame has pronounced himself “the biggest hypocrite ever” and admitted to cheating on his wife after it was revealed Wednesday that he had paid accounts with Ashley Madison, the affair-facilitating website that was hacked a month ago. “I have been the biggest hypocrite ever. While espousing faith and family values, I have been unfaithful to my wife,” the father of four said on the Duggar family’s website Thursday. It was reported in May that as a minor Josh Duggar had inappropriate contact with five underage girls, four of whom were his sisters.

California: Jenner charge Caitlyn Jenner could face a vehicular manslaughter charge after investigators found she was driving unsafely when she caused a chain-reaction crash that killed a woman in February, officials said Thursday. Investigators found that Jenner was driving “unsafe for the prevailing road conditions” when her SUV rearended a Lexus, a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department spokeswoman said. Jenner was unable to stop and her SUV rear-ended two cars, pushing the Lexus into oncoming traffic. The Lexus driver, Kim Howe, 69, was killed when her car was struck head-on by a Hummer.

AROUND THE WORLD Slovakia: Planes collide Two planes carrying dozens of parachutists collided in midair, killing seven people, officials said. Thirty-one others on board survived by jumping out with their parachutes. The crash took place Thursday morning near Cerveny Kamen, firefighters said. Rescue workers used helicopters to reach the forested crash site in the White Carpathians mountain range that forms the border with the Czech Republic. The two Czech-made L-410 transport planes reportedly collided at 4,900 feet.

Israel: Rockets from Syria Militants in Syria fired several rockets into northern Israel on Thursday, prompting Israeli retaliatory fire, the military said — the first time since the 1973 Mideast war that rockets from Syrian territory have slammed into Israel. A total of four rockets exploded in an open field in the northern Galilee, where sirens warned residents of the incoming projectiles. The rockets sparked small fires but caused no injuries. The military said the rockets were fired by the Iranbacked Islamic Jihad group. From Herald news services

Foods take on new hues As consumers demand natural ingredients, manufacturers struggle for alternatives. By Candice Choi Associated Press

TARRYTOWN, N.Y. — Mozzarella cheese at Panera restaurants won’t be as glaringly white. Banana peppers in Subway sandwiches won’t be the same exact shade of yellow. Trix cereal will have two fewer colors. Food makers are purging their products of artificial dyes as people increasingly eschew anything in their food they don’t feel is natural. But replicating the vivid colors Americans expect with ingredients like beets and carrots isn’t always easy. In fact, General Mills couldn’t find good alternatives for the blue and green pieces in Trix, so the company is getting rid of those colors when the cereal is reformulated later this year. The red pieces — which will be colored with radishes and strawberries — will also look different. “We haven’t been able to get that same vibrant color,” said Kate Gallager, General Mills’ cereal developer. The shift away from artificial dyes represents the latest chapter for food coloring in the U.S., which has had a rocky history. As recently as 1950, the Food and Drug Administration said children became sick after eating an orange Halloween candy that contained a dye. The agency eventually whittled down its list of approved color additives after finding several had caused “serious adverse effects.” Now, more companies say they are replacing artificial dyes with colors made from fruits, vegetables and spices, which are widely considered “natural,” although the FDA doesn’t classify them that way. But these present more challenges than artificial dyes. In addition to costing more, colors from fruits and vegetables can be sensitive to heat and acidity. And since they’re used in higher doses to achieve boldness, tweaks to other parts of recipes may be needed. Such adjustments can be tricky for companies that manufacture on massive scales. Still, companies want to court people like Heather Thalwitzer, a 31-year-old homemaker in Melbourne, Florida. Thalwitzer avoids artificial colors because she wants her 6-year-old son to

eat quality food and she said red dye has been linked to “mania.” She has tried alternatives like naturally colored sprinkles from Whole Foods, which her husband thinks taste like fish. But she can get along without such products. One year, she made cupcakes topped with a single blueberry for her son’s birthday. There are times when Thalwitzer makes exceptions, such as when her son is at a friend’s party. “I’ll let him have the birthday cake,” she said. “But I’ll cringe.”

The evolution of natural Part of the challenge with colors from natural sources is that the range of hues has been limited. Blues, for instance, weren’t widely available the U.S. until 2013. That’s when the FDA approved a petition by candy

maker Mars Inc. to use spirulina extract as coloring in gum and candy. The alga can now also be used in ice creams, drink mixes and other products. “That was a big thing for us,” said Stefan Hake, CEO of the U.S. division of natural color maker GNT. At the company’s office in Tarrytown, New York, Hake demonstrated how to get blue from spirulina by pouring a liquefied version of it through a coffee filter to isolate the right color components. The approval of spirulina extract also opened up the world of greens, which can be made by mixing blue and yellow. It turns out plants like spinach brown in heat and aren’t ideal for coloring. Getting approval for a new color source can take years, but

GENERAL MILLS

it’s one way companies can fill out their palette of natural hues. In coming weeks, an industry group plans to submit a petition to use the carthamus in safflower for yellow, according to color maker Sensient Technologies. “It’s just one more that might be another crayon in the crayon box,” said Steve Morris, Sensient’s general manager of food colors for North America. Sensient also developed a “deodorizing process” to remove flavors from ingredients. That allowed it to introduce an orange for beverages made from paprika. Morris declined to detail the company’s process. But since the ingredient is not “fundamentally changing the form,” he said the ingredients are still within FDA guidelines of permissible color sources. Sensient said three-quarters of its new projects for clients in North America involve natural colors. Globally, its sales of colors — natural and synthetic — comes to about $300 million.

Coloring inside the lines There are seven synthetic colors approved for broad use in foods. But these dyes can be mixed to create a wide range of colors. The colors are made by synthesizing raw materials from petroleum, according to the FDA. Synthetic colors still dominate in the U.S., but some cite a study linking them to hyperactivity in children in calling for them to be phased out. Lisa Lefferts at the See COLORS, Page A10

Trump popularity signals desire for change

biz bits

t sounds like one of those confounding questions on a standardized test: What do charter schools and Donald Trump have in common? The answer is that their current popularity comes primarily from what they are not, not from what they are. Charter schools in our state have endured years of voter rejection, union opposition, selfcreated problems, bureaucratic harassment, and mediocre performance assessments … all with undiminished enthusiasm. Why? Because they are not the public schools. Donald Trump, 69, has enjoyed successes and endured failures in his real estate development career, and he was able to leverage the successes into considerable personal wealth as

Providence and Walgreens plan new clinics Walgreens is teaming up with Providence Health & Services for the first time to open a handful of new instore clinics, as the drugstore chain looks for a more costeffective and collaborative approach to expand its health care services. Providence is a nonprofit Catholic health system based in suburban Seattle that operates 34 hospitals and 475 doctor’s offices in the Northwest and California. Providence plans to open up to 25 clinics inside Walgreens stores in Seattle and Portland over the next few years, the two companies said Thursday. Providence will staff the new clinics with nurse practitioners. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Realtors report increase in sales Americans stepped up their home-buying for a third straight month in July, as sales accelerated to the strongest pace in eight years. The National Association of Realtors said Thursday that sales of existing homes rose 2 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.59 million, the fastest rate since February 2007. Sales have jumped 9.6 percent over the past 12 months, while the number of listings has declined 4.7 percent. Steady job growth and relatively low mortgage rates have convinced current homeowners to purchase homes, while first-time buyers remain scarce.

Smartphones sales growth slows down Worldwide sales of smartphones in the second quarter grew at the slowest pace since 2013 as sales in China declined for the first time, according to research firm Gartner Inc. Gartner said Thursday that smartphone sales grew 13.5 percent to 330 million units in the second quarter compared with a year earlier. While demand continues to increase in emerging markets, Gartner said overall smartphone sales were mixed. Smartphone sales in China fell 4 percent year-over-year — the first such decline for the world’s most populous country and biggest market for smartphones. China accounted for 30 percent of total smartphone sales in the second quarter.

Sales at Sears soften in 2nd quarter Sears’ sales declined in the second quarter as it shifted away from low-margin goods like electronics and it focused on increasing the number of loyal customers through reward programs. The retailer did post its first quarterly profit in three years, bolstered by selling and leasing back some of its buildings to a new real estate investment trust. Revenue fell to $6.21 billion from $8.01 billion. That was still better than the $5.88 billion booked in the first quarter. Yet sales at stores open at least a year, a key indicator of a retailer’s health, declined 10.8 percent. From Herald news services

Center for Science in the Public Interest also says artificial colors can be used in deceptive ways. “They mask the absence of ingredients,” she said. Tropicana’s Twister in Cherry Berry Blast flavor, for instance, list apple and grape juice concentrates, but no cherries or berries. A synthetic color gives it the appearance of having the latter fruits. Of course, natural colors also are used to make foods more appealing and send visual signals about the ingredients they contain. Subway says it will stop using a synthetic dye on its banana peppers, but will maintain their bright yellow look with turmeric. Some say a switch to natural color sources isn’t yet possible because it might turn off customers, although they’re looking into how to change. “We have to deliver bold

performance records mated to forecasts and estimates of market size and competition. The competence of CEOs is assessed not through first-hand impressions but through resumes of their education and experience. CEOs of companies seeking initial public offerings (IPOs) of stock usually make presentations to investors around the country. These “roadshow” presentations are routinely recorded on video and, although longer, they are not unlike those given by entrepreneurs on the television program “Shark Tank.” The big difference is that the financial data — the basis of the traditional pricing model — is more extensive and formatted in a standardized way due to the federally regulated, public nature of the offering. In the study itself, 224 CEO presentations were boiled down to three 10-second clips, minus their sound tracks —“Vid-bytes,” really. These were shown to a randomly selected audience whose impressions of CEO attractiveness, competence, and trustworthiness were recorded, compiled into a composite index, and compared with the actual price of the IPO. What the authors found was a gamechanger. The data-based IPO pricing model traditionally used by analysts and economists was incomplete. Firms with CEOs that made favorable impressions were, as the report summarizes, “…more likely to be matched to high-quality underwriters,” an important factor in market price. The report also

colors and flavors, or people will stop buying,” said Will Papa, chief research and development officer at Hershey, which makes Jolly Ranchers, Twizzlers and Reese’s. Mars, which makes M&M’s and Skittles, said it isn’t yet using the spirulina extract it petitioned to have approved.

Not everyone thinks getting rid of artificial colors hinges on finding exact matches with natural alternatives. Panera is betting people won’t mind that its mozzarella cheese might have a yellowish hue after the removal of titanium dioxide. For cookies with candy-coated chocolates,

the natural colors it is testing are also duller. Over time, people will get used to the more muted hues of foods with natural ingredients, said Tom Gumpel, Panera’s head baker. “You have to remove some of your expectations,” he said.

Jobless-aid applications up slightly Associated Press WASHINGTON — The number of Americans seeking unemployment aid rose slightly last week, yet remained at a low level

The four-week average, a less volatile measure, increased 5,500 to 271,500. Applications, which are a proxy for layoffs, are near the lowest levels in 15 years. Two weeks ago, the fourweek average dropped to its lowest point since April 2000. That is a sign that employers are confident enough in the economy’s future growth to hold onto their staffs. The number of people receiving aid fell 24,000 to 2.25 million. That is almost 11 percent below the level one year ago. Many former recipients have found jobs, while others have exhausted their benefits.

The sharp fall in layoffs in the past two years means Americans are enjoying solid job security. Hiring has also picked up and has continued at a steady pace. In July, employers added a net 215,000 jobs, and the unemployment rate remained at a seven-year low of 5.3 percent. The economy has generated 5.6 million jobs in the past two years, putting more paychecks into Americans’ hands. That is boosting spending and helping the economy to grow. But the steady job gains and falling unemployment rate have yet to boost wages.

states that, “… instinctive impressions of management are incorporated into investors’ assessments of firm value.” “Roadshows” by CEOs and management teams are frequently criticized as being expensive, time-consuming, and inconsequential when it comes to IPO success — criticism remarkably similar to what analysts say about televised debates for candidates. As the most recent campaign demonstrates, though, the debates can be very consequential, just as roadshows are an important factor in investors’ assessment of CEOs. There are obvious differences between individuals and institutions, and we make our judgments about them in different ways. There is a big distinction, for example, between selecting a political leader and selecting the type of school to educate our children; and an equally big difference between IPO valuations and assessments of workplace management. What these four areas have in common today are the need and the preference for change over constancy, and for genuine leadership. Data, is important but in the end so are our judgments and decisions about a leader’s ability to change things for the better and meet the challenges of the future. And the more we know about how our decisions are made — in education, politics, workplaces, and financial markets — the better off we will be.

IN OUR VIEW | Fighting wildfires

The new realities of wildfires A hastily scrawled sign on a fence outside a Twisp home implores: “Firefighters, this is just a house — please stay safe.” It’s a message made more heartbreaking by Wednesday evening’s news that three firefighters had died and four others were injured, one critically, while responding to fires near the Methow Valley town, one of scores of fires burning in Washington state and throughout the West. It’s a fire season for this state that is likely to challenge what was a record blaze in last year’s Carlton Complex fire, which burned more than 256,000 acres, destroyed more than 300 homes and cost more than $128 million to fight. Emergency planners are having to make decisions about how best to deploy resources that already are stretched thin. At the request of the National Interagency

In June, U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell prepared a white paper on wildfires that not only urges a change in how funds are allocated for fighting fires but a reassessment of how we fight fires and prepare for them. The white paper’s points, now part of proposed legislation in the “Wildfire Disaster Funding Act of 2015,” recognize that the nature of wildfires has changed over the last several decades. “We cannot keep using the same, tired approaches that we have used for the last 100 years,” Cantwell, D-Washington, said in a release. The senator in the white paper and in the legislation recommends: ■■Funding firefighting for the largest fires out of the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Disaster Relief Fund rather than cash-strapped state and federal agencies. ■■Focusing firefighting efforts

on where the need is greatest with the recognition that some “good” fires, which can reduce a buildup of fuels, are better contained than extinguished. ■■Preparing ahead of fire seasons to make communities and homes less susceptible to fires through programs such as Firewise but also by changing building codes to discourage materials like cedar shake roofs for homes in forested areas. ■■Changing how emergency services are delivered during wildfires to more closely resemble responses to floods, hurricanes and other disasters. If the trend for wildfires to become more frequent and more destructive continues, we will have to make better decisions on how best to use the resources available to protect lives first and then how to protect property and public lands. After all, firefighters, these are just houses. Please stay safe.

Dave Somers is my favorite politician. He spends taxpayer money carefully, like it is his own. His opponent does not. He has 14 years of experience in county government. His opponent does not. Dave saved Lake Roesiger by thwarting an effort to build a “mini-city” next to this rural lake. Dave has the support of environmentalists and of the Master Builders Association. Dave Somers is the clear choice for Snohomish County Executive.

I read many letters to the editor that refer to our democracy. We do not live in a democracy, it is a constitutional republic and that is one of the reasons we have the electoral collage. Without it. the few large states would control the government. Also I believe that both parties are the parties of the rich.

In the Wednesday letter written by Morgan Davis, “Name caller needs a mirror,” he wrote “correct me if I’m wrong.” In fact, he is very wrong about Mr. Tagart. Jim Tagart was with the Seattle Police Department for 18 years prior to accepting the job as police chief in Mount Vernon, which I’m sure wouldn’t like to be classified as “Mayberry” with its two person police department. It was just the opposite. Jim took his 18 years of “big city” experience to Mount Vernon. Jim also served in the United States Navy on a submarine along with many years in the Coast Guard Reserves teaching firearm safety. Jim has also served on the board that reviews police officer candidates and as a guard at the federal courthouse. Perhaps if Mr. Morgan would have checked Jim’s background he wouldn’t classify him with Barney & Goober.

I’m just having a wonderful experience paying the use tax on a used car, come to find out nothing matters to the licensing office besides retail value. Even if you register a vehicle that needs repairs, you still must pay full retail value tax on a used vehicle. How many times is the state going to tax this property? Indefinitely? Maybe it’s time to move of out this reverse Robin Hood state; Democrats can’t even lower college tuition without Republicans doing it for them! The DOL said they do not use private party prices even though it was a private sale, that they would not honor my registered mechanic’s estimate for repairs, and insisted that I can take it or leave it, even though it states on the DOL website you can bring repair estimates when you register a vehicle! Besides the “use tax” and all the state’s other fees, the total came out to be near 12 percent total taxes, almost $900 in “use taxes and fees” that are not explained anywhere. Do I get full reimbursement from my insurance company if the vehicle is a total loss? They had no answer to that, not a surprise! Aside from the use tax, the e911 tax is still being abused by misapplication of the law.. How about doing away with the sales tax? I cannot wait to see what fees are going up in January and how much more Community Transit wants to dig into my pocket too! Even if “Democrats” “win” nothing ever changes; stop supporting spineless Democrats!

Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, Joint Base Lewis-McChord is training 200 soldiers to join firefighters on the fire lines. None of this was a surprise; officials and lawmakers knew this was likely to be a bad fire season as droughts lengthened in California and took hold in typically green Washington state. The threat was present in mind enough to convince the Washington Legislature to commit $10 million in its budget, money requested by the state Department of Natural Resources to thin forests and remove brush on public lands and help homeowners prepare defensible spaces around their homes, a program called Firewise, during the next two years. The DNR had sought $20 million for the work, a request — now illuminated by the fires — that looks more than justifiable and should be addressed when the Legislature next convenes.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■REI

Don’t abuse return policy Regarding the article, “Man shakes depression, anxiety in 3,000-mile walk to daughter in Lynnwood”: Walking 3,000 miles from Arizona to Lynnwood as Mr. Hammond related in Tuesday’s Herald front page article is commendable, but I was appalled when at the beginning of The Herald article he related that he had taken the pants, which he had been hiking in every day for the past six months, back to REI with the complaint that the pants showed the dirt a lot and that he really wanted green instead of the khaki color. REI has a great return policy, but people should not take advantage of it. If Mr. Hammond wasn’t happy with the pants he could have stopped much earlier in many of the REI stores throughout Arizona, California and Oregon instead of after he was finished with his six month walk.

■■COUNTY EXECUTIVE

Somers does not qualify for office In my opinion, the county executive should be impartial and treat all constituents with respect. My experience with Snohomish County Councilman Somers has been the opposite. In one of his previous voter pamphlets he presented himself as “easily approachable.” I found him to be the opposite. I have known of Somers for most of the years he served on the Snohomish County Council. As I worked on projects in his district I needed his input on many occasions. Of the many phone calls and emails sent to his office I have never received a personal reply. In conversation with Neil Watkins, former president of the Monroe Chamber of Commerce, Neil offered to arrange a private meeting for me with Somers to discuss one of my projects. Two weeks later Neil informed me that he had had no reply and could not understand why. President Watkins and his 400 member association, together with the Snohomish County Tourism Bureau, were in support of my project. The project had the potential to inject millions of tourism dollars and jobs into the Sky Valley and Monroe economy. What a different reception I received years earlier from the late Willis Tucker, a former County Executive, when

Gardner and other officials in Olympia enthusiastically arranged for a meeting with the Swiss representative of Bucher Aerospace and were able to persuade Bucher to build a 78,000 square foot facility in Everett, instead of Beaverton, Oregon. Self-serving Councilman Somers does not qualify for the office of Snohomish County Executive. Marc Bhend Lynnwood

Abused by use tax on used car

Trump again pulls GOP into bruising debate “This was not a subject that was on anybody’s mind until I brought it up at my announcement.” — Donald Trump, on immigration, Republican debate, Aug. 6 ot on anyone’s mind? For years, immigration has been the subject of near-constant, often bitter argument within the GOP. But it is true that Trump has brought the debate to a new place — first, with his announcement speech, about whether Mexican CHARLES migrants are really KRAUTHAMMER rapists, and now with the somewhat more nuanced Trump plan. Much of it — visa tracking, E-Verify, withholding funds from sanctuary cities — predates Trump. Even building the Great Wall is not particularly new. Dominating the discussion, however, are his two policy innovations: (a) abolition of birthright citizenship and (b) mass deportation. Birthright citizenship: If you are born in the United States, you are an American citizen. So says the 14th Amendment. Barring some esoteric and radically new jurisprudence, abolition would require amending the Constitution. Which would take years and great political effort. And make the GOP anathema to HispanicAmericans for a generation. And for what? Birthright citizenship is a symptom, not a cause. If you regain control of the border, the number of birthright babies fades to insignificance. . Moreover, the real issue is not the birthright babies themselves, but the chain migration that follows. It turns one baby into an imported village. Chain migration is not a constitutional right. It’s a result of statutes and regulations. These can be readily changed. That should be the focus, not a quixotic constitutional battle. Mass deportation: Last Sunday, Trump told NBC’s Chuck Todd that all illegal immigrants must leave the country. Although once they’ve been kicked out, we will let “the good ones” back in. On its own terms, this is crackpot. Wouldn’t you save a lot just on Mayflower moving costs if you chose the “good ones” first — before sending SWAT teams to turn families out of their homes, loading them on buses and dumping them on the other side of the Rio Grande? Less frivolously, it is estimated by the conservative American Action Forum that mass deportation would take about 20 years and cost about $500 billion for all the police, judges, lawyers and enforcement agents — and bus drivers! — needed to expel 11 million people. Forcibly evict 11 million people from their homes? It can’t happen. It shouldn’t happen. And, of course, it won’t ever happen. But because it’s the view of the Republican front-runner, every other candidate is now required to react. So instead of debating border security, guest-worker programs and sanctuary cities — where Republicans are on firm moral and political ground — they are forced into a debate about a repulsive fantasy. Which, for the Republican Party, is also political poison. Mitt Romney lost the Hispanic vote by 44 points and he was advocating only self-deportation. It is not just Hispanics who will be alienated. Romney lost the Asian vote, too. By 47 points. And many non-minorities will be offended by the idea of rounding up 11 million people, the vast majority of whom are law-abiding members of their communities. Donald Trump has every right to advance his ideas. I strongly oppose the idea of ostracizing anyone from the GOP or the conservative movement. On whose authority? Let the people decide. But that is not to say that he should be exempt from normal scrutiny or from consideration of the effect of his candidacy on conservatism’s future. If you are a conservative alarmed at the country’s direction and committed to retaking the White House, you should be concerned about what Trump’s ascendancy is doing to the chances of that happening. The Democrats’ presumptive candidate is flailing badly. Republicans have an unusually talented field with a good chance of winning the presidency. Do they really want to be dragged into the swamps — right now, on immigration — that will make that prospect electorally impossible? Yes, I understand. The anger, the frustration, etc., etc., that Trump is channeling. But how are these alleviated by yelling “I’m mad as hell” — and proceeding to elect Hillary Clinton?

2016 Honda HR-V: styling of a coupe, toughness of SUV ROAD TEST by Larry Lark Herald Special Sections Writer

onda is debuting a new vehicle this year: The 2016 HR-V. What type of alphabet soup is it, you ask? It’s a five-door, compact, entry-level crossover with all-wheel drive. And it’s the little brother to Honda’s ever-popular CR-V. The vehicle blends the styling of a coupe — thanks to concealed, integrated door handles — the toughness, space and utility of an SUV and improved gas mileage. Of course, the vice president of American Honda thinks it’s much more: “The new HR-V crossover is a true segment-busting vehicle, unlike anything else on the market today,” said Jeff Conrad, who’s also general manager of the Honda Division. “It’s got all the essential elements of our Honda DNA, our packaging innovation, fuel-efficient powertrain technology, leading safety technology and, above all, Honda quality, to make this an incredibly compelling, sporty and value-packed new member of the Honda family.” The HR-V seats five adults, with a surprising amount of cargo space easily accessible via the fifthdoor hatchback. A second-row “magic seat” provides

multiple seating/cargo modes that will serve multiple masters. And the rig manages to provide 32 miles per gallon fuel economy down the highway. The only negatives I could muster (sorry, Mr. Conrad) were cabin noise, somewhat claustrophobic front seats, and pokey acceleration. On the flip side, the HR-V parks easily, rides and handles like a car, yet provides a slightly higher view of the road. Power comes from a 1.8-liter SOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine with i-VTEC valve-train, producing a peak 138 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 127 lb.-ft. of torque at 4,300 rpm. The engine is mated to a sporty and fuel-efficient continuously variable transmission (CVT) with Honda “Gdesign” shift logic

HR-V is pleasing to the eye from either outside or inside. A curved sheetmetal wrinkle that descends from the rear-door handle to front fender catches your eye, along with 17-inch alloy wheels and a tailgate spoiler. Inside, leather-trimmed seats, brushed chrome and piano-black highlights, and an instrument cluster with floating illumination rings and a speedometer that changes color from white to green – depending upon your driving habits – garner attention. My upscale EX-L trim level (top-of-the-line) adds a navigation system, Sirius XM radio, auto day/ night rearview mirror and roof rails to the previously mentioned leather-trimmed seats. Other goodies included are Honda’s 7-inch touchscreen display audio telematics interface, Honda LaneWatch, Smart Entry/ Push-Button Start, paddle shifters, heated front seats, power sunroof

and Honda Digital Traffic. Standard features on the LX, EX and EX-L are power windows, mirrors, door and tailgate locks, electronic parking brake, rearview camera, tilt and telescoping steering wheel with audio and cruise controls, Bluetooth phone interface and Pandora radio. In keeping with Honda’s commitment to safety, the HR-V is expected to deliver top-in-class collision safety performance and incorporates next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) front body structure, designed to more efficiently absorb and disperse the energy from a frontal collision. Standard safety and driver-assist features include four-channel, anti-lock brakes with brake assist and hill-start assist, vehicle stability assist with traction control, multi-angle rearview camera, and dual-stage front airbags.

2017 Ford Raptor:

Unleash the Potent Macho Truck By TIM SPELL AutoWriters Associates

fter a two-model-year hiatus, Ford’s F-150 SVT Raptor will return to the lineup, created from new ingredients that combine for a more potent formula. The new-generation 2017 Raptor, scheduled to go on sale in autumn 2016, is a case of less is more. It’s lighter and propelled by a smaller displacement V-6 engine, but is tougher and more powerful than its predecessor. The Raptor is re-engineered bumper to bumper and benefits from a more-advanced body and frame. The body is constructed of high-strength military-grade aluminum alloy that helps it shed 500-plus pounds. Raptor’s frame is the sturdiest of the F-150 lineup, consisting of more highstrength steel than in the current frame. Taking weight out of the pickup’s upper body lowers the center of gravity, enhancing handling, acceleration and braking, and lessening body lean. Widening the body 6 inches more than a standard F-150 gives the Raptor greater stability. Complementing body and frame improvements is a beefier suspension. The front coil and rear leaf springs have been retuned, massive aluminum control arms are positioned up front, and enlarged

Fox Racing Shoxs provide greater suspension travel. An optional Torsen differential system increases front-end traction, allowing the Raptor to pull itself up steep trails and over obstacles. The truck rolls on new 17-inch Y-spoke wheels, wrapped by 35-inch-tall BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO2 tires. The Raptor’s versatility is a key to its popularity. It’s engineered to do low-speed crawling over rugged terrain, run at high speeds in the desert and provide a civilized ride quality for driving on public streets. Ford says the new-generation model has a more-compliant street ride than the firstgen Raptor. Off-road performance gets a boost with a new torque-on-demand fourwheel-drive transfer case, which provides improved traction on a greater variety of terrains at low and high speeds. Enabling the driver to tailor driving dynamics is a Terrain Management System. Six modes can be selected to address various conditions: normal street driving; higher-performance on-road driving; rain, snow or ice conditions; mud and sand; high-speed desert running; and low-speed rock crawling. Sophisticated technology also is found under the hood with a lighter-weight second-generation 3.5-liter EcoBoost V-6

This adds to its looks and improves visibility. Moving outside mirrors and corner “ear sail” pieces about 4 inches forward also enhances visibility. Macho is raised a notch with protruding front and rear fenders, and deep chiseling at the sides of headlamps and taillamps. Interior styling is in sync with exterior design and features a racing-inspired look. Driver and front passenger are cradled in two-tone, thick-stitched sport seats with fabric inserts and aggressive leather-covered bolsters. The hefty contoured steering wheel is wrapped in leather and simulated suede, and carbon-fiber-look trim is used to accent the interior. The Raptor is fitted with a Sync 3 touchscreen infotainment system, premium sound system, dual-zone automatic climate control, overhead-console auxiliary switch bank and a 110-volt power outlet. Ford is taking a bit of a gamble by totally revamping a popular vehicle — especially subbing a V-8 with a V-6 engine — but the 2017 model strongly answers the basic demands of Raptor fans. It provides more power, a bolder exterior, improved off-road performance and better on-road ride quality. Pricing will be announced at a later date, but the estimated base price range is from the high-$40,000s to low-$50,000s.

engine, which is an about-face from the current 6.2-liter V-8. Ford hasn’t released specs, but reports its output will be greater than the 6.2-liter’s 411 horses and 434 lb.ft. of torque. Helping to milk extra muscle from the racing-inspired engine are twin turbochargers, an intercooler, direct fuel injection and true dual exhausts. Fuel-economy figures haven’t been announced, but Ford promises improved fuel efficiency compared to the current 11 miles per gallon city and 16 mpg highway. Contributing to fuel economy is a new 10-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode, which replaces a sixspeed automatic. Along with its performance pluses, consumers are lured to the Raptor by its bad-boy looks, and the 2017 model doesn’t disappoint. Available in four-door SuperCab and SuperCrew configurations, the alloy body is sculpted with more-seductive curves and angles than its straight-sided predecessor. Its muscular looks reflect the spirit of desert-racing Trophy Trucks. The Raptor’s profile view is slap-youin-the-face cool, with design features that grab the eye and increase practicality. The beltline has been dropped about an inch and Ford’s signature drop-down window section has been lowered about 2 inches.

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Expect to clash with people who don’t think the same way you do. Do your best to find solutions and to see both sides of a situation to avoid ruining your reputation or ending a friendship. Weigh the pros and cons of all situations you face this year before making a move that isn’t necessary and will lead to regret. Your numbers are 2, 8, 12, 25, 31, 38, 42. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Look for ways to make physical improvements. Getting involved in an activity that is challenging will help you gain perspective regarding what’s important and what isn’t. Approach whatever you face with humility, and you will excel. ★★★ TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Frustration will surface if you try to do the impossible. Use your head and carefully think each step through to avoid disruptions. A change of scenery will do you a world of good. Clear vision comes from getting rid of clutter. ★★★ GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Do the work yourself. You are capable of improving your surroundings and will simplify matters if you don’t get involved in a group effort. Someone will overreact or lead you in the wrong direction if you are too accommodating. ★★★ CANCER (June 21-July 22): Make changes because you want to, not because someone is pushing you to do so. A smart move on your part will show others that you are capable of taking charge and getting things done your way. ★★★★★ LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Emotional problems will develop if you get into a discussion regarding your domestic situation. Don’t overreact or get angry. If you want to solve a problem, listen carefully and look for a suitable solution. ★★ VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You will learn a lot from people who have more experience, as well as by watching the mistakes they make.

You can improve your reputation, outlook and appearance if you are willing to take on a challenge that helps you face your fears.

Use your intellect and focus on something you enjoy doing. ★★★ SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Situations will get blown out of proportion if you aren’t careful about what you say. Exaggerating your abilities will make you look bad. Put more energy into personal and home improvements. Choose romance over an argument. ★★★ CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): An opportunity to get involved in a project that you see as a potential moneymaker looks promising. Take control to avoid any unnecessary mishaps. Your experience will help you turn an interesting concept into a thriving venture. ★★★★ AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Keep your emotions under control. If you want to discuss how you feel, make sure you listen to someone else’s point of view first. You can bring about positive change, but do so with love, not animosity. Stay calm as well as compromising. ★★ PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your vision will take you a long way if you are prepared to discuss your plans with someone who may be interested in a partnership. Be willing to offer a fair deal in order to get things up and running. ★★★★★ Universal Uclick

Ford Focus:

AutoWriters Associates

true world car in every sense of the phrase, Ford offers the Focus (or some version of the Focus) in pretty much every market in which the company does business. In fact, back in 2012, the Ford Focus surpassed the Toyota Corolla to become the world’s best-selling nameplate, and has remained so for each of the ensuing years. Thoroughly redesigned for the 2015 model year, the Ford Focus benefited from new exterior styling, a revised interior treatment, new infotainment and safety systems, along with a new ultra-efficient engine option. Ford offers the 2015 Focus in both sedan and hatchback body styles, and — in addition to the high-performance Ford Focus ST and the Ford Focus Electric — in three primary trim levels. These are Focus S, Focus SE and Focus Titanium. Ford updated the appearance of its popular compact with LED signature lighting, as well as a redesigned hood, grille and trunk lid (for sedans). The new grille brings Focus more into line with the current front-end treatment being applied to Ford’s passenger cars, “borrowing” the look previously exclusive to models from Aston Martin. At the rear of the Focus, the license plate mounting area is reshaped, and adds new rear lamp clusters to inform the goingaway view of the hatchback. The interior is streamlined for a muchless-busy appearance. The steering wheel’s three-spoke design is new and the center stack is considerably slimmer than before.

Uncommon Compact Car Gratefully, the design of the lower-level Focus models relies upon dials and buttons in the center stack rather than the MyFordTouch system fitted to upper-level models in the Focus lineup. No, I’m not terribly fond of MyFordTouch: Sure it looks cool, but in operation it can just be too tedious. Something I do appreciate about the interior of the Focus is its quiet and handsome natures. Further, materials, fit and finish are first rate. Don’t get it twisted now: while there’s no mistaking the Focus for anything other than the economical compact it is, the overall vibe of the interior comes across as considerably more expensive than my tester’s base price of $17,170 would suggest. Standard safety features of the 2015 model include driver and passenger airbags, a driver’s knee airbag, and side curtain airbags. Anti-lock brakes are also standard equipment, but if you want fourwheel discs you have to get into a Titanium model. Traction control, stability control, brake assist, child safety locks and tire pres-

sure monitoring are standard features as well. In addition to voice activation of certain secondary functions, Ford’s SYNC system provides automatic crash notification. Meanwhile, the Ford MyKey system will mute the radio if the car is driven without the seat belts fastened. It will also allow the car’s owner to limit top speed to a choice of 65, 70, 75 or 80 miles per hour — with chimes sounding at 45, 55 and 65 mph. MyKey also enables the blocking of any satellite radio stations classified as explicit. The primary engine offering is a 2.0-liter four-cylinder delivering 160 horsepower and 146 lb.-ft. of torque. Focus S and Focus SE get five-speed manual transmissions as standard equipment, while a six-speed automatic is optional. The six-speed is standard equipment with Titanium trim. All Focus models employ front-wheel drive. The other engine offering is a 1.0-liter three-cylinder turbocharged powerplant fitted to the Focus SE EcoBoost model. This engine delivers 123 horsepower and 148

lb.-ft. of torque. For optimal performance and fuel economy, Ford’s engineering team specified a six-speed manual transmission for this engine. This actually marks the second application of the 1.0-liter EcoBoost powerplant for the U.S. market. It is also fitted to the Fiesta. Lest the new, more conservative styling fool you, Focus is still a lot of fun to drive. Yes, Focus ST is even more powerful and considerably more engaging, but let’s not forget that the basic platform of the Focus ST is still the Focus. With that said, you’ll find commendable agility coupled with a quiet and smooth ride. This comes along with nicely accurate steering and more than sufficient braking power — even in Focus models equipped with rear drum brakes. Ford’s Focus is one of the more engaging models in its competitive set, which includes such standouts as Volkswagen’s Golf and Mazda’s Mazda3, and offers a variety of options to please a wide selection of tastes.

PREP FOOTBALL | Fall Practice

‘They’re like my brothers’ Site: Snoqualmie Schedule: Friday-Sunday. Course: TPC Snoqualmie Ridge (7,172 yards, par 72). Purse: $2 million. Winner’s share: $300,000. Television: Golf Channel (Friday, 6-8 p.m.; Saturday, 11:30 a.m.-1:30 a.m., 2-4 p.m.; Sunday, 2-4 p.m.).

Couples the headliner, but Maggert the golfer to beat By Tim Booth Associated Press

wanted to try it,” Gormley said. “I usually play soccer during the fall and this is the first year I haven’t. It’s just an interesting sport. You have to be smart, you have to be agile, you’ve got to be athletic, you have to know a lot of stuff to play football. It’s an accomplishment that I want to have.” The kicker still remembers her first practice with Lakewood last spring. There was one aspect of football that shocked the soccer player. “It was hot,” Gormley said. “I had a lot of fun. It was a little weird. And I really didn’t know they ran this much.”

SNOQUALMIE — Fred Couples certainly looks ready for another chance at a hometown victory. Preparing for the Boeing Classic, Couples played with a friend Wednesday at Broadmoor Golf Club in Seattle — and eagled the final hole for a course-record 59. “When I played the 18th hole, I had no idea I was 9 under, but it was a really good day,” Couples said Thursday. “I hit the ball really well and, you know, you don’t shoot 59 very often from any tees. I was excited because I’ve had a lot of time off.” While Couples will remain the hometown favorite any time he plays in the Seattle area, Jeff Maggert has been the hottest player on the Champions Tour. Maggert has three victories this year and is coming off a Jeff Maggert win two weeks ago in Calgary, Alberta. His other two victories were both majors, taking the Regions Tradition in May in Alabama, and the U.S. Senior Open in Sacramento, California, in June. Of the 12 tournaments Maggert has played since the middle of February, he has finished outside the top 15 only once. Maggert, in his first full season on the Champions Tour, trails only Colin Montgomerie in the Charles Schwab Cup points race.

Lakewood’s Syndey Gormley kicks off in return drills during the first of two practices at Lakewood High School in Arlington on Thursday.

Sydney Gormley competing for kicking spot on young Lakewood football team EXTRA >> WEB heraldnet.com/prepzone

By David Krueger Herald Writer

ARLINGTON — The Lakewood football team had a few girls come work out with the Cougars recently and look into joining the football team. At the start of fall practice only one remains. Sophomore Sydney Gormley has emerged as a possible extra point kicker for Lakewood early in its season. The club soccer player joined the football team to see what it was like and impressed Cougars head coach Dan Teeter in the spring when she made 34 extra points in a row. “She came to me in spring and, a few weeks before spring ball, started showing up to the weight room and said, ‘Yeah, I want to play football this year,’” Teeter said. “We actually had several girls from the eighthgrade class that were going to be incoming freshmen who

came out and worked out just for awhile and none of them ended up staying with it. But Sydney stayed with it. She’s been coming to workout, she’s gone to camps, gone to team barbeques and she’s been all in all the way.”

Gormley, who has played soccer for 11 years, has the fall off from her club team. Instead of playing soccer at Lakewood she opted for a different sport. “I’ve always watched (football) since I was a kid and always

Seahawks’ Lockett doing what he was raised to do The 22-year-old, whose father played in the NFL, ‘grew up learning football from inside’ a locker room. By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

ELAINE THOMPSON / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett stretches during warmups before a preseason game against the Broncos this past Friday.

INSIDE: Storm, C2

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Tyler Lockett gets it. Not just being a kickoff and punt returner. Last week in Seattle’s exhibition opener he took the second ball he touched as a Seahawk 46 yards to midfield. He took the fourth one 103 yards to the opposite end zone. He returned the first punt he grabbed 18 yards on an improvisational zigzag past befuddled Broncos. And it’s not just that he gets being a wide receiver. That’s where the rookie third-round draft choice and Kansas State’s career receiving leader has wowed coaches, quarterback Russell Wilson and veteran Doug Baldwin with smooth, precise route running and an

looks the part of an NFL standout after just one preseason game. He acts as polished as he plays. “He’s doing what we raised him to do,” his father Kevin Lockett said Thursday from Leawood, Kansas, the Kansas City suburb where he works as a venture capitalist. When Tyler was five through 12 years old his father was an NFL wide receiver. He played for Kansas City (1997-2000), then Washington (2001-02), Jacksonville (’02) and the New York Jets (’03). Tyler’s uncle Aaron also spent time in the NFL with Tampa Bay and San Francisco and played in the Canadian Football League. “He really grew up learning football from inside an NFL locker room,” Kevin Lockett said of Tyler.

STORM | Update

Tonight’s Game Opponent: Indiana Fever When: 7 p.m. Where: KeyArena, Seattle TV: Justice (cable)

Scouting report With just eight games to play in the WNBA season, the Storm are tied with San Antonio for the worst record in the league at 7-19, but at the same time they are just 1½ games behind Los Angeles for the fourth and final spot in the Western Conference. The Storm also hold the season tiebreaker against the Sparks. The Storm host the Indiana Fever in the final meeting between the two teams this season. At 15-9, Indiana has the second best record in the Eastern Conference behind first place New York. The Storm’s schedule down the stretch is difficult, which might actually serve the team well in the long run. Finishing the season with the league’s worst record would ensure that the Storm would have the best chance at obtaining the No. 1 overall pick in next year’s WNBA draft. Don’t expect the Storm to give up on this season though, they are coming off a victory over San Antonio on Sunday and they are 2-2 in their last four games, which shows some progress. After tonight’s game rookie forward Ramu Tokashiki will miss four games competing with the Japanese national team. —Aaron Lommers, Herald Writer

Seahawks safety Earl Thomas reaches for a ball during a training-camp practice on Wednesday in Renton.

Carroll: Goal is to get Thomas ready for opener By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Earl Thomas’ surgically repaired shoulder is fully healed. Between now and the Seattle Seahawks’ opener Sept. 13 at St. Louis, it’s a matter of him strengthening the shoulder enough so he can extend his consecutive games-played streak to begin his career to 91. That was coach Pete Carroll’s description of where the All-Pro free safety stands after a couple non-contact practices three weeks before the games get real. “He’s getting a lot more work than he had. It’s all in the process of getting him ready for the opener, in hopes that he will be ready to go that week. We’ll see,” Carroll said Thursday following a light, walk-through practice indoors and just before the team flew to Kansas City, Missouri, for Friday’s second exhibition game. “It’s worked out fine. He’s taken to it. Earl’s the kind of guy that you have to put the governor on, because he’s going to go full speed. And we are concerned about that. But he’s done a great job of handling that. We’ll increase his reps next week quite a bit.” Tuesday was Thomas’ first day of practicing — albeit in a red, no-contact jersey — since surgery Feb. 24. “He’s healed. We are just making sure he has all of the time to regain all of his strength,” Carroll said. “So he’s healed and he can do

His son has turned what he learned there into what he’s become here with the Seahawks. Father and son — and uncle — all learned the finer points of football and of how to be a man while playing for legendary coach Bill Snyder at Kansas State. It was for Snyder that Kevin Lockett became K-State’s career receiving leader through the 1996 season. It was for Snyder that Tyler broke all his dad’s records. “He is more talented than I was or my brother was,” Kevin Lockett said. “The biggest thing about coach Snyder was that he takes young boys and turns them into mature young men. So much of what he teaches is related to life off the field: having integrity, living with character. That’s why you succeed. So we did everything to raise him with a lot of coach Snyder qualities embedded in him. “He got to put into practice what he learned growing up.” Seahawks general manager John Schneider has built his championship team by hoarding, not trading away, draft choices. So when he sent not one or two but four picks to Washington in May to move from the bottom of the third round to its top — and not to select a hulking, tall receiver or stud offensive linemen most thought Seattle urgently needed but for a visually

everything right now.” Thomas talked this week about being happy about the pace of his rehabilitation. But he added a remark that Carroll seemed to be addressing Thursday. “I don’t think coach Carroll-wise (it’s gone well); he’s constantly on me. But I think I’m doing a great job as far as rehabbing,” Thomas said. “I’m just happy that they’ve taken the handcuffs off me and let me kind of do my job. That’s all I can control right now.” Don’t expect Thomas to play in any of the three remaining exhibition games. There’s just no need.

Daniels may play QB Carroll coyly said “we might” play wide receiver and former 2014 third quarterback B.J. Daniels as the No. 3 QB against the Chiefs. Chances are strong he will. Tarvaris Jackson, Russell Wilson’s primary backup, is going to be out a while with a high-ankle sprain. That means R.J. Archer is likely to play at least two quarters as the quarterback, after Wilson plays about one quarter. Seattle signed a new, third QB this week. But Jake Waters, a rookie free agent out of Kansas State, only got to see the full playbook for the first time on Wednesday, so he is unlikely to play much if at all against the Chiefs. That will disappoint the many around K.C. that wanted to see Waters throwing to Seahawks rookie Tyler Lockett again. Those two connected numerous times the last two seasons for K-State. Carroll mentioned how the offense’s starters got 10 plays and the starting defense got 13 plays in last week’s preseason opener against Denver — and how they will be

unimposing receiver — critics thought Schneider finally screwed up a draft. No one thinks that now. Lockett has spent the majority of this month as the third receiver with the starting offense. He’s often moved Baldwin outside from his inside, slot position in which he’s excelled for years. It’s become obvious Lockett is going to be more than just Seattle’s new kickoff and punt returner this season. “This is what we hoped he would be like,” coach Pete Carroll said. “We just needed to see it, but that’s really the evaluation; he was a complete player. Very quickly he’s shown us that he’s very comfortable with what we’re asking him to do. He’s a gifted route runner — he’s just so darn quick at getting in and out. “There’s really no ceiling on him.” That’s exactly what his iconic coach at K-State instilled in Lockett. “The biggest thing with what I learned from Bill Snyder was just the little things,” Tyler Lockett said. “You can’t really control the big things, but it’s the little things you can control. He always talked about being 1-0, which is winning every day — whether it’s in the meeting room, in practice — he just talked about trying to win every, single thing that you do every day.” Sounds like Carroll. “That way you don’t get caught up in all the glitz and glamour, when every day you are trying to win at something,” Tyler Lockett said.

playing more Friday. That includes the debut of Seattle’s new offensive line, with Drew Nowak at center, Garry Gilliam at right tackle and Justin Britt at left guard. It’s becoming more likely that will be the starting unit for next week’s third preseason game at San Diego, the usual final “dress rehearsal” for the regular season. Thus, it’s looking more likely that will be starting line for the opener in St. Louis, along with left tackle Russell Okung and right guard J.R. Sweezy. Carroll said he wants to see the starters play more “cleanly” against the Chiefs. Wilson lost a fumble while getting sacked by Denver’s Von Miller on the game’s second play last week, after Miller rushed past Britt off the right edge. That play, plus six other sacks by the Broncos, are why the Seahawks have 60 percent of its offensive line new this week. “We’ve got to take care of the football better,” Carroll said. A large reason why Seattle has played in two consecutive Super Bowls is how low its turnoverscommitted number has been. The offense had 14 turnovers (seven lost fumbles, seven interceptions by Wilson) in 16 regular-season games last year.

Extra points Carroll said we will all have to “wait and see” if rookie DE Frank Clark plays at Kansas City. He hasn’t practiced all week because of a sore ankle. ... Richard Sherman may not play. He returned to practice Tuesday after missing three days plus last week’s exhibition game with a strained hip flexor. Why risk re-injuring an All-Pro on Aug. 21? ... Kam Chancellor holdout, day 21 update: “We just keep working at it ... working to keep the lines of communication open,” Carroll said. The maximum fines the Seahawks could put on their team leader is up $880,000 — not that they will.

Snyder’s teachings for life off the field are showing up for Lockett in Seattle. “How to behave yourself. What’s your character? How to just carry yourself along the way, especially when good and bad things happen. He taught us a lot of things as far as the old-school way,” Tyler Lockett said. “I was around the program when I was a little kid, but I was raised in a great family home. I was blessed to have the family members that I have, to raise me up right, understand right from wrong. “I mean, I was one of the lucky ones to be in the position that I’m in, and to be able to carry myself the way I do.” Lockett said the way he was raised — growing up in Tulsa, Oklahoma, when he wasn’t following his father around the NFL — was the way Snyder developed his players at Kansas State. “One of the things that it did help me do was prepare to be a man,” he said. “Just to be able to prepare myself for the good and the bad. A lot of times things aren’t going to go your way. “A lot of that made me prepared for this moment.” Lockett’s father calls Seattle a perfect fit for his son. “It’s absolutely a great fit,” Kevin Lockett said. “The number-one thing we prayed for as a family before the draft was that he land at the right place. “In the NFL, everyone there is talented. Everybody has ability. The things that allow guys to stick is hard work, and opportunity. You have to be in the right place for the right opportunity.”

SEATTLE — There is not a player on the Washington Huskies’ depth chart with a more secure starting spot than Budda Baker, the sophomore free safety from Bellevue who led the team in total snaps played as a true freshman last season. He’s one of the Huskies’ most talented players, and perhaps their most important, too. He’s as sure of a thing as UW has. He just has no idea who’s going to start alongside him. It could be Brian Clay, a fifthyear senior who starred last season on special teams. Or Brandon Beaver, a fourth-year junior who has taken plenty of reps PRESEASON with the first-team CAMP defense during training camp. Or Jojo McIntosh, a hard-hitting redshirt freshman. Or Ezekiel Turner, a big-bodied junior-college transfer. Or Trevor Walker, who started two games last season before tearing his ACL. Yes, there are as many as five candidates to fill the Huskies’ strong safety spot, which is open this season because junior Kevin King, who started 12 games there in 2014, moved over to cornerback. “We have some guys to choose from,” defensive backs coach Jimmy Lake said. “And what’s nice is they’re all competing together, and they’re making each other better, so we’ll see how it all pans out. They’re all playing so well right now in practice that I think eventually when we get to game time, there could be a rotation of a couple of guys, so we can see them get some game reps.” Lake said he’s looking for a physical player who is a sure tackler, “but also very, very smart. They make a lot of calls in our defense.” That seems to bode well for Clay, the oldest member of the secondary who is reputed for his intelligence — just last week, in fact, he missed a few practices while completing his summer course work toward a Master’s degree with a focus on intercollegiate athletic leadership. After transferring from Hawaii, then sitting out the 2013 season as a walk-on, Clay earned a scholarship last season and played a key role on the Huskies’ specialteams units. He wasn’t a factor at safety, though. That seems likely to change this season. Clay spent Thursday’s practice practicing with the first-team defense, with Turner and McIntosh both sidelined by apparently minor injuries (Lake and coach Chris Petersen each said both players should be “fine.”) “It’s awesome, because we have a lot of guys on the back end that can play this year, and no one is really solid back there,” Clay said. “Everybody’s going to have a shot to play, and we’re definitely all going to play. So I love it. It just brings out the best in us.”

Redskins’ Griffin leaves game with concussion Associated Press LANDOVER, Md. — Washington Redskins coach Jay Gruden says quarterback Robert Griffin III sustained a concussion in the team’s 21-17 exhibition victory over the Detroit Lions. Gruden says after Thursday night’s game that he has “no idea” how long Griffin will be sidelined. The coach adds that he “would imagine, depending how long” Griffin is out, “he’s still going to be our starter.” Griffin left in the second quarter after getting sacked on consecutive plays. He also got a stinger in his right shoulder, but Gruden says that should be OK.

Gormley, who says her strategy is to “just get the ball through the uprights no matter what,” was initially worried how the team would respond to her. It turns out her fears were unnecessary. “The team is so awesome. I love being out here with them,” she said. “They’ve supported me the entire way. They’re like my brothers now.” Her new teammates have embraced Gormley and been impressed by her work ethic. “During some of the workouts she’s out here just tearing up some of the guys. We’re running stairs and she’s way ahead of the pack,” said senior lineman Sean Renfro. “You’re like, ‘What is this?’ She’s staying after for an hour or two after practice kicking field goals just putting in the extra work. ... I think it takes a lot of courage for her to get out here.” “She’s dedicated,” Teeter said. “If I had all the guys as dedicated to what they do as she has been it’d be awesome. She’ll come out and just kick on her own for an hour plus and just has a lot of consistency.” Gormley is one of several new faces for the Lakewood football team, which graduated 22 seniors from last season. “We’re excited for new opportunities and to see who rises up,” Teeter said. “But our expectations are still really high.” There are a few key players back for Lynnwood, including Renfro and fellow linemen Jordan Jira and Billy Main. The trio bring valuable experience — and a lot of talent — to the Cougars’ line. “We’ve got three experienced, really capable varsity linemen that are back,” Teeter said. “The line should be a strength for us. We’ve got three guys that I think could be playing football on Saturdays in the future.” Jira, who has been talking with recruiters from Montana, Central Washington, Eastern Washington and Wyoming, is excited to see what the new batch of Cougars can do. “We’re a young team but we’re working together and I think it’s going to be a good year,” Jira said. “It’s definitely a little bit different because we have less seniors. But we’re still a team. We’ll keep working as a team.” The senior isn’t sure about his future after Lakewood, but he’s not going to worry about that until after the season. “Now it’s the time to focus on the team,” Jira said. “I’ll worry about recruiting after.” Jira, like his teammates, is excited to see what new quarterback Austin Lane can do. Lane spent last year on junior varsity but injured his collarbone early in the season. “We’ve got Austin Lane, a sophomore, and he’s a stud,” Jira said. “And he’s got a good line in front of him.” Jira and Renfro will be looked to lead a young Lakewood team that, despite losing several key players from last year, plans on continuing the Cougars’ recent success. “It’s definitely new for us leading people, especially a younger group of kids,” Renfro said. “But they’re a great group of people. Everyone here works hard. I have no doubt that we’ll do good. As long as everybody does their assignments right and is hustling, I think we can make something happen.”

Howard, Beasley back with national team Associated Press CHICAGO — Goalkeeper Tim Howard is back with the U.S. national soccer team. The U.S. Soccer Federation announced Thursday that coach Jurgen Klinsmann had called up Howard and veteran defender DaMarcus Beasley for exhibitions next month against Peru and Brazil. Klinsmann said that for now Howard is the No. 2 goalie behind Brad Guzan, who started while Howard took a year off for family reasons after his stellar performance at the 2014 World Cup. Beasley is a four-time World Cup veteran who retired from international play in December. But the defender returned for the Gold Cup this summer, after which he and Klinsmann acknowledged he might continue to play for the U.S.

Seattle general manager Jack Zduriencik (right) talks with manager Lloyd McClendon (second from right) in the dugout before the start of the Mariners’ 2014 home opener. Both men have come under fire this season after the Mariners, a trendy pick to make the World Series, have struggled mightily.

Zduriencik not worried about hot seat rumors On-field issues still vital to GM as rumblings swirl By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

ARLINGTON, Texas — If the wolves are circling Jack Zduriencik, as some suggest, it’s hard to see that it’s having any effect as he works through the closing weeks of his seventh season as the Mariners’ general manager. It’s not that he’s oblivious; he’s heard the growing drumbeat of rumors and speculation that his job is on the line despite getting a multi-year extension less than a year ago. Professional sports are a results-based business and the Mariners, a trendy spring pick to reach the World Series for the first time in their 39-year history, are an enormous disappointment at 56-65. Zduriencik simply chooses to address the on-field issues rather than off-field talk, particularly when that talk isn’t tied to the club’s ownership group, which has not publicly addressed his job status. “I don’t pay a lot of attention to (the rumors),” Zduriencik said in a group interview with the club’s beat reporters earlier this week in Texas. “Because I can tell you, if you were engrossed in what people are saying or what somebody thinks is going on, when they really don’t have all the information, then that can certainly sidetrack you. “It can affect your way of thinking. I’ve got eyes. I can see what’s going on here. I know what has not worked and what should be working and isn’t. For me to focus on any outside distractions (is non-productive).” The speculation is rampant. Former Detroit general manager Dave Dombrowski was a rumor-mill favorite before he took the job in Boston. USA Today now identifies former Chicago White Sox GM Kenny Williams as a leading candidate. Zduriencik said he sees no indication the ongoing chatter regarding his job security is affecting his staff, which would likely find their jobs at risk if the club’s ownership group opts for a replacement. “We don’t talk about it,” he said. “I mean, there’s not a day that I walk in there and somebody says to me, ‘Hey, did you read this?’ or ‘Hey, I heard this.’ That doesn’t happen. “I walk in and say, “What are we doing today? What went on on the field today? What do you see and hear? What’s going on in the minor leagues? “That’s the conversation that goes on. No one comes and sits down and says, ‘Hey, I heard this,’ or ‘I heard that,’ because I would tell them the same thing. ‘Do your job. You have a job to do. “‘You’ve got another monthand-a-half to finish what you’re paid to do. Do it. Do it to the best of your ability.’ I know they do it. I expect them to do it.” Zduriencik insists he has not changed his approach.

MARINERS | Update

TONIGHT’S GAME

Chicago White Sox at Seattle, 7:10 p.m. TV: ROOT (cable) Radio: KTTH (770 AM)

Probable starting pitchers: M’s righthander Felix Hernandez (14-7, 3.65) vs. left-hander Chris Sale (11-7, 3.32). “My job is to do my job every day,” he said. “I said it five years ago. I said it three years ago. I said it last year. I’m not going to do anything that is not in the best interest of this organization. “Now, some things may not work out. Some things get disappointing. Some things work out real well, but the job that you have to do as a general manager is just to continue to do what you know is right.” Zduriencik contends the disappointing season stems primarily from players not performing to expectations. He appears to place little, if any, blame on manager Lloyd McClendon, who is under contract through next season. “I think Lloyd is a good manager,” Zduriencik said. “I think what’s happened with Lloyd is we’ve had underperforming players, in a nutshell, and that ties your hands. “You’re a genius when you’ve got five starters throwing real well and your bullpen’s a lockdown bullpen. When that doesn’t happen, it’s easy to point a finger and say, ‘Well, he didn’t do this or he didn’t do that.’” A year ago, only three American League clubs scored fewer runs than than Mariners, who remained in contention for a postseason berth until the middle of the season’s final game. Zduriencik believed he addressed that weakness in the off-season by signing freeagent outfielder Nelson Cruz, who led the majors in home runs, and acquiring veteran outfielder Seth Smith from San Diego in a trade. Cruz is on pace for the best season of his career, and Smith is performing close to his career norms. Even so, the Mariners struggled to score runs in the season’s early weeks. That led to the June 20 decision to replace hitting coach Howard Johnson with franchise icon Edgar Martinez. That move is paying off. The Mariners are averaging more than a run a game more under Martinez. “There’s responsibility for everything for everybody,” Zduriencik said, “but at the end of the day when players don’t perform to the level you think they can or should…it stresses everybody. “Everybody looks bad. The players look bad. The front office looks bad. The manager doesn’t look as good as he should, but if your lineup is

performing, it’s easier to be a good manager.” The other big failing this year is the bullpen. A year ago, the club’s relief corps led the majors with a 2.59 ERA; the current group heads into Friday’s game against the Chicago White Sox with a 4.30 mark. What happened? “That question is asked internally a lot,” Zduriencik said. “When you look at the bullpen of a year ago and you look at the success that they had, if you were sitting there in the wintertime, and if you were sitting in my chair, (would you) you get rid of this guy? Get rid of that guy? Move this guy? They’re all fairly young, all talented, all had really good years.” The decline, Zduriencik contends, stems from the bullpen being the most volatile and unpredictable aspect of any club from one year to the next. Even so, he acknowledges the group’s regression has been startling. “It looked like a year ago they were going to be big pieces going forward,” he said. “The fact that the entire bullpen for the most part hasn’t performed to the level we would have like it to is very disappointing. “Now, hopefully they’ve grown. Hopefully they get through it, and the ones that are going to be here hopefully will be better a year from now.” Zduriencik holds to a similar hope when he assesses the club as a whole. He still believes the Mariners possess the core group of a postseason contender. “I think there’s a pretty good nucleus here,” he said. “I think when we started the year, we were really excited about (Robinson Cano, Cruz and Kyle Seager). I still think they’re going to be productive players. “I think you look at the strides Taijuan (Walker) made. (Mike) Montgomery’s had some good spurts for us. I think the fact that you’re going to have (James) Paxton back here..,it’s still positive. “I think there’s a good, young nucleus of pitching. Carson Smith’s done a real nice job for us. Still learning. He’s had his ups-and-downs and bumps here and there, but still very talented. “I think when you start to piece it together, there are things we need to do going forward, but I do think that there are some really solid pieces there.” Is that enough to keep the wolves at bay? “I don’t have any control over that,” Zduriencik said. “I don’t necessarily have a great deal of control on the guys’ performance on the field, but it is what it is. You have players signed, you have players who need to perform. “But if there are rumors out there, there’s nothing I can do about that. I can’t control a rumor one way or the other. All I can do is do my job every day and hope that players from this day forward perform.”

PASCO — The Tri-City Dust Devils defeated the Everett AquaSox 4-3 Thursday in the first of a threegame series at Gesa Stadium. The AquaSox took a 3-1 lead in the third when Taylor Zeutenhorst slid around the tag and scored on a fielder’s choice by Luis Liberato. Conner Hale later singled to center to score Erick Mejia and then Arturo Nieto drove in Liberato. Tri-City’s Rod Boykin hit a tworun homer in the third to tie it at three, and the Dust Devils took the lead for good in the fourth.

“I expected to play well and compete on a weekly basis. This year, obviously just has been kind of meeting a lot of those expectations,” Maggert said. “I think everyone when they turn 50, they get a little bit rejuvenated and remotivated. The regular tour is so difficult to compete in your late 40s.” Maggert and Couples will play with Bernhard Langer in the first round Friday at TPC Snoqualmie Ridge. In his last four Champions Tour starts, Langer won the Senior Players Championship, tied for third at the U.S. Senior Open, second at the Senior British Open and tied for second at the 3M Championship in Minnesota. “I get along with Freddie very well. I get along with most guys, but Freddie is pretty easy going,” Langer said. “We have spells during the year where you’re paired with the same guys four, five times in a row.” One of the few absences from Couples’ resume is a victory in the Seattle area where he grew up. This will be his fifth Boeing Classic start, his highest finish being third in 2010 and 2013. He had hoped to qualify for the U.S. Open at nearby Chambers Bay, but back problems forced him to withdraw from qualifying. He has played in only six Champions Tour events this season, and only three since the Masters in April. But Couples is playing well, as evidenced by his 59. He tied for fifth in his last two starts, including the Senior British Open. Couples’ round of 59 was his first in about 12 years, he estimated. “I want to win every tournament I play in and that doesn’t happen and you win once in a blue moon,” Couples said. “But I would trade a lot of things to win here.” Last year, Scott Dunlap won his first Champions Tour title, beating Mark Brooks with a birdie on the first hole of a playoff.

DAN BATES / THE HERALD

Holding the old bridge in place, Larry Whatley checks the height of strings he is replacing on a half-size cello after making a repair to the neck, which had broken twice. The instrument, which is the right size for an elementary school student, perhaps a fourth-grader, he said, was not of exceptionally high value and could have been thrown away. However, he found a way to repair it so that it should work well and not look bad. “The idea,” he said, “is to not be embarrassing for the kids. It should look like what the other kids are playing.” Other instruments, some of them for Music4Life, hang behind Whatley as he works.

By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

LAKE STEVENS — In his downstairs woodworking shop, Larry Whatley repairs what might be called the nicks and bruises for orchestra instruments used by elementary and middle school students. There are strings that need to be replaced and bridges, which support the strings, that are too high or too low. It’s follow up work that he, as one of the volunteers for the Mukilteo chapter of Music4Life, has done this summer. The group provides band and orchestra instruments for students whose families can’t afford them. Their work includes collecting donated instruments, getting them repaired, and, in some cases raising money to buy additional instruments. Earlier this summer, Whatley met with Robin Enders, director of orchestras at Mukilteo’s Explorer Middle School and four elementary schools. Enders and Whatley examined about 40 of the district’s stringed instruments, looking to see what repairs might be needed before the new school year begins. “On several afternoons, Robin and I would go through entire inventory,” he said. “She would make a couple notes on it and I would know to replace a string that didn’t sound well and would have given the kids trouble,” he said. Many of the repairs could be made on the spot. But he brought three instruments to his home in Lake Stevens to work on, projects such as reapplying varnish or replacing bridges. The structures support the

Instrumental in music intro Music4Life volunteers work to provide kids with instruments strings and in the most simple terms, help the strings produce music. “The only serious one was the broken-necked cello,” he said. “It will go back to Explorer this fall.” Whatley’s repair work is just some of tasks that six volunteers of Mukilteo’s Music4Life now undertake. Cyndi Thomsen, the chapter president, said the organization is working to build a 12-member team of volunteers. That’s because of how quickly demand for musical instruments is growing. Last fall, the group had 17 instruments that were donated, repaired and in working order by October, she said. In November, the group got a phone call from the school district telling of the need for five more instruments — two violas, two violins and one flute. “Those happen to be the most popular instruments,” Thomsen said. “Fortunately, we had some money in the bank. Then the group received a $500 donation, “so we could have that money to help make sure the kids were taken care of,” she said. The group pays for some

donated band and orchestra instruments to be repaired by local music stores. Thomsen said she hopes to provide instruments for at least 30 students during the upcoming school year and raise $10,000. “If you don’t have enough money for food at home, having a musical instrument is something you would never dream of,” she said. Not content just with increasing the group’s corps of volunteers and setting a $10,000 fund raising goal, Thomsen said it’s time to start thinking about adding one more needed service,:providing summer music lessons to students who otherwise couldn’t get them. The Mukilteo Music4Life group is an outgrowth of an organization founded by David Endicott in Seattle . The group’s first expansion into Snohomish County occurred in the Edmonds School District . In Mukilteo, the idea for donating musical instruments started with the city’s Youth Advisory Committee to help

How to help Music4Life seeks musical instruments from adults who no longer need them. The nonprofit has them fully repaired and ready to play, then gives them to participating public school districts for use by children from low-income families. More info: 425-3304614. More information on the Mukilteo Music4Life chapter is available online at www.music4life.org/mukilteo .

In the spring of 2014, the Music4Life chapter was launched in Mukilteo. Last year, the group was able to provide a performance-level Bach Stradivarius trumpet to Stephanie Adee, then a Mariner High School freshman. “I got to present it to her at a concert at Harbour Pointe Golf Course,” Thomsen said. “She was near tears.” Although Thomsen said some people may question the need for this program in the Mukilteo School District, about half the students qualify for the free- or reduced-price lunch program. “My gut tells me that there’s a lot more kids out there we need to help,” she said. The program also allows teachers to invite more students to join band and orchestra classes. “The teachers are allowed to do what the do best when they have a program like this to support them,” she said.

‘Force of future’ to reward talent, diversity, motherhood

efense Secretary Ashton Carter next month will be presented with a package of detailed proposals for reshaping military and defense civilian pays, promotions and quality of life, all of which strive to capture a “Force of the Future” vision that Carter laid out in a speech last March. The draft proposals, reviewed over the past week by the services’ assistant secretaries for manpower, and by personnel chiefs of Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine Corps, are wide ranging, innovative and many will be controversial. For example, to shape a more talented military, the Force of the Future package would ask Congress to end the “up or out” promotion and retention systems adopted after World War II. Designed then to ensure youth and vigor, up-or-out today fails to allow forces reliant on technology enough career flexibility and opportunities for personal growth. “Now, as then, major personnel decisions — including promotion, resident professional military education, involuntary separation and career field designation — occur in batches determined by the year in which an officer enters service,” says the package advising sweeping change. “Failure to complete all the tasks and assignments deemed desirable by the promotion board in the allotted time often results in failure of selection.” The result is “unnecessary loss of talent due to the arbitrary nature of career timing” and “tremendous opportunity costs for

TOM PHILPOTT MILITARY UPDATE the department and the nation.” A more flexible personnel system would encourage more officers to get advanced civilian schooling and accept non-traditional assignments that broaden their experience beyond “standardized career paths.” The services also could better match talent with positions, and not be so handcuffed by the calendar of selection boards for promotion. Rather than find current basic pay acceptable, as did the Military Compensation and Retirement Modernization Commission last January, the draft DoD package seeks pay chart reforms to better retain officer talent. “To this day, rank and years of service are the sole determinants of basic pay, virtually assuring that most service members are either over- or under-compensated for the productivity associated with a person’s talents,” the package argues. It calls this “equity-based approach” to management and compensation “obsolete” and says that setting pay “for minimum skill levels across large populations…elevates quantity over quality.” The package suggests two pay table changes. One would raise

pay for officers with six to eight years’ service, reasoning that at that point they are more marketable to outside employers. Dampened would be basic pay for officers with three and four years service because most are still fulfilling initial service obligations and therefore aren’t as marketable. New authority would be sought from Congress for services to amend their basic pay table for up to five critical specialties “to achieve near-market clearing wages” and compete better with outside employers. Also, it proposes offering special and incentive pays to individuals “as opposed to the current requirement to offer such pay only to different classes or groupings of service members.” Another initiative would allow services to establish “technical career tracks” for up to five officer and enlisted job specialties, recognizing that some members with critical skills don’t want command or to supervise others, and yet should be allow full careers as technical experts. Carter also wants a more diverse force and that goal is reflected in the package. One initiative would require that 25 percent of members on selection and promotion boards be women or minorities. And for at least two years, the services would test a race-and-genderblind officer promotion process by removing names, photos and pronouns from promotion packets and service records that selection boards review. Following Navy’s lead, parental leave for all services, and also for Defense civilian employees,

Veterans news Local veterans of foreign wars are invited to the Carl Gipson Senior Center of Everett to take part in a photo shoot, 3:30 p.m. Sept. 8. Participants must be 50 years or older. The senior center has added new veterans since the last photo shoot, which took place in 2011. The finished product will be displayed at the 10th annual USO dance on Veterans’ Day, Nov. 11. For more information, call 425-257-8780. The 3rd Brigade of the Army’s famous 2nd Infantry Division will inactivate and be re-designated as the 1st Brigade in a 2 p.m. Sept. 15 ceremony at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. The brigade invites veterans of both brigades to attend the ceremony and associated events, which include an alumni golf scramble and reception on Sept. 14, a memorial service and reception on Sept. 15, and a unit organization day on Sept. 16. Veterans who are interested in attending can contact Mike Davino for more

would expand to 18 weeks. Any new parent on active duty or employed by DoD would qualify after a birth or adoption. Mothers could accrue 18 weeks’ leave per child; fathers a total of 18 weeks over careers. Though 144,000 children are born to or adopted by military members annually, officials see parental leave expansion as largely cost neutral. But they concede the possibility that enlisted members and civilian employees, on leaving service, would sell back more normal leave not taken, adding roughly $475 million to personnel costs over the first five years. To improve quality of life for mothers in service, another proposal would prohibit their deployment within a year of childbirth or adoption, and also require that “mothers’ rooms” be established at every command so nursing moms can pump breast milk during workdays in comfort and privacy. Another proposal would expand Tricare coverage of fertility treatments including oocyte and sperm preservation, intrauterine insemination, in vitro fertilization and advanced reproductive technology. Some treatments cost a few thousand dollars and others as much as $15,000. Tricare doesn’t cover now. “Yet for frequently deployed service members and their spouses, elective oocyte and sperm cryopreservation promises the ability to have a family at a later time,” the package notes. A total of 29 proposals are under review with 11 aimed at reforming how DoD civilians, particularly those with critical

or highly technical skills, are recruited, promoted, paid and retained. Carter tapped Brad R. Carson, acting under secretary of defense for personnel and readiness, to direct his Force of the Future initiative. In an August 3 memo to the services, Carson said the proposals “are the first fruits” of the initiative, shaped by interdepartmental working groups. He asked service leaders to comment and suggest edits by August 13. Any comments shared would be in the final report to Carter “without gloss or editing,” Carson promised. But he also maintained that personnel systems used to manage their workforces today “must change if we are to adequately keep pace with our increasing demands and with the private sector.” Carter will review and make final decisions on the package in time for at least some reforms and new authorities to be included the defense budget request for fiscal 2017 to be delivered to Capitol Hill early next year. The draft package acknowledges the difficulty of getting major personnel reforms enacted before President Obama leaves office Jan. 20, 2017. So to help ensure survival of any initiatives enacted, implemented or still moving through Congress, the package seeks to create a new position of Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Future Force Implementation to provide continual oversight. That position would sunset by October 2020. To comment, email milupdate@aol.com or twitter: @ Military_Update

Airline won’t refund deceased son’s ticket

DAILY CROSSWORD

Q: Our son, William, died in an automobile accident in May. The time following this tragedy was taken up with grief, with us attempting to reconcile and resolve his personal affairs. In June, I found evidence that our son and his girlfriend had airline reservations with Allegiant for round-trip travel from Orlando to Cincinnati/ Northern Kentucky International Airport the following month. Given the circumstances, I thought I could contact Allegiant, explain the facts and request a refund. I called the number for customer service and waited for more than an hour, then spoke with a representative, who was quick to tell me she could not help. She said I should fill out the customer comment form on Allegiant’s website, and someone would get back to me in 24 to 48 hours. I waited the 24 to 48 hours, and when I got no response, I called back. This time, my wait was 66 minutes. A representative was quick to “parrot back” to me the Allegiant refund policy, which I had already grown very familiar with. He told me that passengers were allowed to cancel only within 24 hours of booking a flight. I reiterated to him that our son was dead. He then told me that even if Allegiant allowed our son’s

CHRISTOPHER ELLIOTT TRAVEL TROUBLESHOOTER

estate the refund, a $75 penalty would be assessed on each traveler for each portion of the trip, for a total of $300. My son’s ticket cost $349. When I told him I could not believe Allegiant could be so uncaring and insensitive, he told me he would submit my request for assistance for management review. Again, he told me I would hear back in 24 to 48 hours. It has now been 18 days since I opened a dialogue with Allegiant. I have followed all the required steps to get this matter resolved. There still is no resolution or answer to my original request. Our son left this world with debts that need to be settled. While $349 may seem like a small amount of money, it puts us farther down the road to paying off real obligations. All other businesses I have contacted have responded

with cooperation and kindness. Only Allegiant has met my request for assistance with barriers to receiving a reasonable and just resolution. Can you help me? — William Osborne, Davenport, Florida A: I’m so sorry about your loss. When a passenger dies, the industry-standard policy is to refund a ticket to the next of kin or to that person’s estate. But a closer look at Allegiant’s terms and conditions suggests that it might not follow that standard. The airline doesn’t address the death of a passenger, but it takes a hard line on passengers who have a death in the family, saying that you can get a refund only if it’s within 24 hours of purchase (that’s a federal law) but otherwise are stuck with your ticket. That’s an exceptionally coldhearted policy. And while it may be true that this policy can “keep our fares low for all passengers” and allows Allegiant to “stay competitive,” it also sticks passengers with a bill for a ticket they’ll never use and unjustly enriches Allegiant’s investors. That makes this advocate’s blood boil. You received every penny of the $349 back. (c) 2015 Christopher Elliott. Distributed by King Features Syndicate, Inc.

Man has sense of loss after returning dog he found Dear Abby: A man I work with found a dog on his way to the office. He picked it up, took it home and was immediately talking about what a good playmate the dog would make. He said he tried to call the local animal shelter, but was put on hold twice, so he gave up. I felt he should have made more of an attempt to find the owner before claiming it as his own. I immediately posted a free “found dog” ad online and, three weeks later, received a message. It turned out the dog belonged to a 72-year-old woman who lives alone. She discovered her back door open one day and her dog missing. I put my co-worker in touch with the lady and said I’d leave it to him to do what he felt was best. After confirming the dog was indeed hers, he reluctantly returned it to her. He is now telling everyone he’s very sad at his loss and that it was “almost as hard as having a dog put to sleep.” He’s receiving major sympathy from some of our co-workers who seem to be upset with me for posting the found dog ad. — Did The Right Thing In Texas Dear Did: I don’t think you did anything wrong, and I’m 100 percent positive that the dog’s owner would agree with me. She was probably worried sick, wondering if her beloved companion was lying injured or dead in a ditch somewhere. While I appreciate your co-worker feeling a sense of loss at having to return the dog, he should be comforted in the knowledge that it’s in a home where it is loved and cared for. And that is NOT comparable to having to have one euthanized. However, because he is grieving, suggest he ask the owner for visitation. Out of gratitude, she may agree. RIP HAYWIRE

South next led a diamond to his queen. “I took the king,” Cy said, “and led the jack of clubs. My partner ‘unblocked’ his king and returned a club, and South had four club tricks, two diamonds, two spades and a heart. We got a zero.” East’s play was wrong. If Cy had the ten of clubs, he would have led it at Trick Three. East should have realized that when Cy led the jack, he was unblocking for East. (Bad things can happen when both defenders unblock.) If East plays low on the second club, careful defense beats 3NT.

Dear Abby: I have been with my partner, “Pat,” for 10 years. For personal reasons, we have chosen not to get married. I call him my partner because, for the majority of our 10 years together, we have lived together. We share multiple financial commitments, and he is truly my partner in life. My problem is, when I refer to Pat as my partner, people immediately ask me if I’m gay. I’m less worried about people thinking I might be a lesbian, but more that people might think Pat is a woman. Even his family members have remarked when I refer to him as my partner. I know our friends and family respect our choice to not be married, but I’m not sure what to call him other than my partner. I feel that “boyfriend” is too casual for our level of commitment. I don’t have a problem calling Pat my partner. I do have a problem with all the unnecessary confusion that follows. What should I call the man I am committed to and who is equally committed to me, when we have chosen to take the “no ring” route together? — Not Single In St. Louis Dear Not Single: You could use “better half,” but I think the word “partner” describes your relationship very well. If someone asks if you are gay or if Pat is a woman, don’t be defensive — just say no. Universal Uclick

Thousands of Plastic Surgeons Could Go Out of Business by 2017! “When Dr. Oz featured phytoceramides on his TV show, he didn’t realize he might be responsible for putting thousands of doctors out of business.” What Would You Choose…

THE DAILY HERALD

Seven shows fit for a back-to-school binge Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

What to do with those last golden weeks of summer? Why not binge some quality TV that you may have missed along the way? Here’s a list of favorites.

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ Or This? By Steph Weller NEW YORK: Plastic surgeons are angry. And for good reason. The U.S. launch of the new “face-lift pill”, Dermex-P, might have them scrambling for new careers. Their “bread and butter” business; making older faces look young again, could go away tomorrow. In a time when 50 is the new 30, the pressure to look younger is greater than ever. Perhaps this is why Americans spent over $12-billion on anti-aging products and procedures — just last year. A number that had doctors and cosmetic manufacturers doing a jig in 2014 — but “not for long!”

Doctor Oz Exposes Hollywood’s “Age-Curing” Miracle to the World! When TV’s Doctor Oz featured phytoceramides (the key ingredient in Dermex-P) on his show, he didn’t realize the damage he was doing. Everything that Doctor Oz said about the ingredient was true. “This is no ‘old wives tale’. It’s a scientiﬁc fact! The clinical tests are indisputable,” said one industry insider. And that’s the problem. It works too well! And that’s exactly what has estheticians and the cosmetic industry so worried. That would mean products and services like facials, Botox® injections and other means of making yourself look younger could soon be obsolete. According to Doctor Oz, a recent clinical study conducted at Osaka City University in Japan proved the effects of phytoceramides on 6 men and 27 women. Each had wrinkles, age lines and sagging skin conditions that made them look years older than they actually were. Typically, their skin was dry, inelastic, wrinkled and old-looking. The study concluded when administered daily, the phytoceramides used in Dermex-P would moisturize and hydrate old skin to identically mimic the skin of people in their early 20’s. Phytoceramides reverse wrinkles through a process called elastase suppression and collagen production. Simply put, Dermex-P plumps away wrinkles using your body’s own collagen. And keeps your skin moist and smooth much like a humidor keeps cigars fresh.

Not a Cream, Cover-up or Surgical Procedure Dermex-P isn’t a drug, a cosmetic, or a messy cream. Dermex-P is something completely different. There are no needles involved – you don’t even need a prescription for it. “9-out-of-10 users report; people accuse them of having surgery” says researcher, Joel Carson. Dermex-P actually youthens every cell in your body! Wrinkles fade, ﬁne lines vanish and your skin is ﬂooded with new moisture – from the inside out. Doctors say Dermex-P is so effective, that in most cases, there’s no reason for anyone to go “under the knife”. It just works better! And because you take phytoceramides orally

Real Stories, Real Results “My husband left me for a younger woman last year and he took my selfesteem with him,” says 50 year old Lydia S. of Tampa, Fl. “When I read an article about Dermex-P and how its main ingredient was clinically proven to restore a youthful appearance, I thought, “Why not?”. Lydia goes on to say with a smile, “What they say is true, living well is the best revenge. I have my conﬁdence back and am dating men half my age. My friends and family cannot believe the difference!” 54 year old Joan from Phoenix, Arizona says “After using Dermex-P for four weeks, I looked in the mirror and felt like a 30 year old with 24 years of experience!”

“When Kanye’s mother died of ‘complications due to plastic surgery’, I think a lot of us decided beauty was not worth our life and accepted the fact that wrinkles and dry patchy skin were a way of life.” Anita from Little Rock, Arkansas explained. “But when I ran into an old high school friend from 25 years ago and she looked like she hadn’t aged at all, I assumed she had had a face lift. Boy was I wrong! I can’t thank her enough! Thank you, Sheila!” laughed Anita.

(through the mouth) instead of topically (on the skin), not only will the skin on your face look young – virtually every organ in your body gets younger too.

“I’ve seen some people start taking them and look like a different person just a month later!” Says supplement manufacturer, Daniel Dembinski; “Doctor Oz was right! Phytoceramides are remarkable! I’ve seen some people start taking them and look like a different person just a month later. I know it sounds crazy but you can’t argue with facts. The pill is a better, more effective method than anything I’ve seen.”

Phytoceramides Offer Relief from Eczema and Psoriasis Too! Recently, research has shown that eczema is associated with a faulty skin barrier. This defect in the skin’s barrier function allows irritants and bacteria to enter the skin easily causing inﬂammation and at the same time allows the dehydration of skin. Phytoceramides have proven to be effective in combating the itching and inﬂammation caused by eczema and psoriasis and to normalize skin surface lipids reducing chronic dry skin in patients with these conditions. Plastic surgeons aren’t the only ones furious about the U.S. release of Dermex-P. Hollywood execs are nervous about the launch too. Celebrities make their fortunes on their looks. It’s what separates them from us. And today, the younger you look, the more acting jobs you get. Surgery and estheticians give celebs the edge over us mortal folk. But if everyone looked younger, Hollywood execs fear their stars may lose their appeal.

“It hydrates old skin to identically mimic the skin of people in their early 20’s” Until recently, unless your name was Angelina Jolie; or you were married to Donald Trump, you had no idea what phytoceramides were. But now with the public release of Dermex-P; phytoceramides are available to all-and shockingly affordable too.

Aging is Inevitable, Wrinkles are Not! According to top plastic surgeons, Dr. Shirley Madhere and Dr. Leif Rogers, phytoceramides work underneath your skin to reverse aging. It’s instantly absorbed into the bloodstream, and is carried directly to the inner and outermost layers of your skin restoring it on a cellular level. It just makes a lot more sense than other methods. “This will undoubtedly have a tremendous impact on the future of cosmetic surgery. It has to. Dermex-P is drastically cheaper in comparison. And it gives you shockingly similar results,” says one successful Beverly Hill’s surgeon. “The medical community is up in arms because the average cost of a facelift is about ten thousand dollars; and the recovery time is painful and can take as much as 2-3 weeks! We will soon start to see the trend steering away from medical procedures to a safer, more inexpensive solution like Dermex-P.” The distributor of Dermex-P is offering a 100% Risk-FREE 30-day trial supply to anyone who asks. They say, it’s the best way for people to see for themselves how well it works. Try it for 30 days – if your wrinkles don’t disappear from your entire face and neck, return the bottle, even if totally empty. You’ll be completely refunded – no questions asked. But no one’s promising this offer will stay open forever. Considering the demand for Dermex-P, the FREE trial supply could prove too costly for the company to keep up with. That’s why it’s important to call now before the FREE trial is no longer available. We will also send you a FREE GIFT just for trying Dermex-P and of course you are backed by our unconditional 30 Day Money Back Guarantee on all of our products. It’s that easy! Call 1-800-722-7304 now before this offer is closed forever.

TELEVISION

By Jewell Porter, Amy Brooks and Katie Sarandou

This?

The first of the epic “Shondaland” series, “Grey’s Anatomy” is an absolute classic. The soap opera follows the life of Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo), the daughter of a talented surgeon who started at Seattle Grace Hospital as an intern. Grey creates a life for herself with people inside the walls of the hospital giving her a semblance of the family that she never really had. Now heading into its 12th season, fans of “Grey’s” have even more to look forward to as they see how Dr. Grey showcases her grit without her “person” and husband by her side. (Watch on ABC app, Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, iTunes, Google Play)

‘Orange is the New Black’ Jenji Kohan’s original series for Netflix is based on Piper Kerman’s memoir of the same name. Set in a women’s correctional institution, the series tackles issues of privilege, the cycle of poverty, race relations, LGBT rights and abuse of power while also frequently reaching into characters’ pasts to examine what circumstances led them to prison. Despite these weighty issues, “OITNB” manages an excellent mix of poignancy and humor, and the characters (both prisoners and guards) can be sympathetic and relatable. (Netflix, Amazon, iTunes, Google Play)

‘Doctor Who’ BBC’s reboot of its original sci-fi adventure series comes with the same quirky Doctor we’ve come to know and love over the past 50 years, but with much better special effects. The show’s main character, The Doctor, travels through both space and time (which he explains is

Thanks to his ability to regenerate, The Doctor is portrayed by an everchanging list of talented actors including David Tennant, Peter Capaldi and Matt Smith. (Netflix, BBC online, Amazon, Doctor Who, iTunes, Google Play)

‘Empire’ Let’s be honest here: Anything that Lee Daniels creates is bound to be worth watching. But if you mix in the fabulous Taraji P. Henson and the iconic Terrence Howard as the show’s two main leads, you have the ingredients for dramatic genius. The story starts with Lucious Lyon (Howard) running his music business with his two youngest children, Jamaal and Hakeem, working as the leads in his music company, Empire, and his eldest son, Andre, helping his father with the everyday operations of the company. The story is only further complicated when Lucious’ ex-wife, Cookie (Henson), is released from prison after serving 17 years for selling drugs to fund her husband’s music industry dreams and then demands half of the company’s profits. “Empire” has been lauded for its willingness to go for the crazy.

show stars Katherine Parkinson as Jen, a social butterfly who is condemned to the basement IT office after claiming in an interview that she is “great with computers.” There she meets Roy (Chris O’Dowd), a laidback and lazy IT worker from Ireland, and Maurice (Richard Ayoade), Roy’s socially inept counterpart. The three must learn to work together as Jen agrees to help Roy and Moss out socially in exchange for their silence about her lack of computer skills. This witty goofy show is the perfect length for a week of binge-watching, but the plot allows for watching a show here and there without pesky cliffhanger endings. (Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, iTunes)

‘The Walking Dead’ After being shot on the job, Sheriff Rick Grimes (Andrew Lincoln) wakes from a coma to find the hospital — and his town — abandoned and his wife and child missing. It doesn’t take long for him to realize that he has awakened in the middle of a zombie apocalypse (although they are never actually referred to as zombies in the show), and over the next several seasons the once-benevolent sheriff’s mission becomes to protect his family and friends, at all costs. Even if you’re not typically into zombie shows, don’t be too quick to judge this book by its cover — or this show by its genre, as the case may be. (Netflix, Amazon, iTunes, Google Play)

Busy Eisenberg could have skipped ‘Ultra’ By Brian Miller Seattle Weekly

With the arrival of the stoner/amnesiac/secret agent action flick “American Ultra,” we have officially reached peak Eisenberg. Here playing a hapless West Virginia mini-mart clerk named Mike, Jesse Eisenberg is also currently starring in “The End of the Tour” as the journalist trying to crack David Foster Wallace’s big noggin. His shortstory collection, “Bream Gives Me Hiccups,” comes out next month (he’s scheduled to read at Seattle Central Library on Nov. 9). And this summer he wrote and starred in the off-Broadway drama “The Spoils,” which got excellent reviews. What next, politics? Brain surgery? Eisenberg is best known for playing smart, flawed individuals, as in “The Social Network,” but I prefer him in offbeat genre stuff like the underrated 2009 “Zombieland” (which also has the advantage of a neat Bill Murray cameo — go rent it). Though not on the same level, “American Ultra” is clearly playing with that expectation: Mike starts out dumb, stoned, scattered and sweet. He’s in love with girlfriend Phoebe (Kristen Stewart, gradually putting the “Twilight” movies in her rear-view mirror). He’s seemingly a gentle slacker who wouldn’t hurt a fly. Until, unexpectedly to Mike as well as us, he’s not. False identities and secret CIA programs

Jesse Eisenberg plays stoner/killing machine Mike Howell, and Kristen Stewart is love interest Phoebe, in “American Ultra.”

“American Ultra” ★★ The prolific Jesse Eisenberg plays a sweet-natured slaker who discovers he possesses serious killing-machine skills. Kristen Stewart helps him gather clues to his past, while sinister CIA types want him dead. The Bourne-like premise could have used more spoof and fewer slo-mo shootouts. Rated: R, for strong bloody violence, bad language, and (gasp) marijuana use. Showing: Alderwood Mall, Cinebarre, Everett Stadium, Galaxy Monroe, Marysville, Stanwood Cinemas, Pacific Place, Sundance, Thornton Place, Woodinville, Cascade Mall enter with a spasm of violence, 25 minutes into the picture. Suddenly

poor, bewildered Mike is spattered in blood—some his, mostly others’—and

wondering, “What if I’m like a robot?” Where did his pre-programmed killing skills come from? Although I’ll write around the obvious, anyone watching will immediately think of the Bourne movies (and their parents: “The Manchurian Candidate”). I.e., nothing is what it seems, dude! As Mike and Phoebe begin to gather clues about his past life, “Ultra” is funnier in its comic situation than its execution. (Nima Nourizadeh directs and Max Landis writes, neither with much future promise.) The

humor drops away with the slo-mo gunfire and fiery explosions — unlike “Pineapple Express,” to which “Ultra” will be unfavorably compared. Familiar TV faces including Connie Britton, Walton Goggins and Tony Hale are cast strictly according to type. The truth is that you believe more in Britton, playing a disgraced CIA officer, than Eisenberg as stone-cold killer. She has an angry walk down the halls of Langley that signals lethal intent. (Topher Grace plays her smug agency rival;

LIONSGATE

anyone wearing a threepiece suit these days is clearly a villain.) No one here is of Bourne caliber, making you wish they’d brought in the gag writers from “The Interview” to add more spoof. Not that Eisenberg’s stock is greatly diminished (though now slightly past peak as you reach this paragraph). His next big role comes in March, with the “Batman v Superman” sequel. Who’s he playing? Do you even need to ask? Lex Luthor, of course. Smart, flawed, Eisenberg.

Overly serious ‘Hitman: Agent 47’ is dead on By Katie Walsh

‘Hitman: Agent 47’ ★½

Tribune News Service

If you see one movie about governmentally modified assassins this weekend, don’t make it “Hitman: Agent 47.” “American Ultra” is the far superior take on the unknowing super spy, because it takes itself far less seriously, and can actually poke fun at the genre. “Hitman: Agent 47” was just never going to be able to keep up, especially with its overly serious take on the genre. It’s so coldblooded, it’s practically reptilian. Directed by newcomer Aleksander Bach, with a screenplay by Skip Woods and Michael Finch, the story seems overly complicated but is actually quite simple: Someone’s trying to make more of the genetically enhanced “agents,” and in order to succeed, they need to find the originator of the project, Litvenko (Ciarán Hinds), who has dropped off the face of the earth. In pursuit are Agent 47 (Rupert Friend), a contract killer so focused on his job he’s practically a robot, and John Smith (a woefully miscast Zachary Quinto) who works for the private organization Syndicate International. 47 is trying to stop

This time-killer about genetically enhanced super-agents looks like a first-person shooter video game — probably because it’s based on one. The filmmakers occasionally try (and fail) to make existential points about the nature of humanity, but are mostly concerned with violent action — and they don’t do that well, either. Rated: R for sequences of strong violence, and some language. Showing: Alderwood Mall, Cinebarre, Everett Stadium, Woodinville, Cascade Mall

Syndicate from making more agents. He works for a woman, Diana (Angelababy; that is actually her name), who gives him cryptic instructions on the phone. Caught in the middle is Litvenko’s daughter, Katia (Hannah Ware), who is also searching for her father, having been abandoned as a child,

equipped with near psychic survival skills, including an extra-sensory perception for lurking dangers. She falls in with Smith and 47, and after a series of rapidly switching alliances, they’re off to the races, with a quick training for her while in pursuit of her father. There’s a half-baked attempt to answer some

existential questions about the nature of humanity when you’re a murderous robot person, but the sentimentality doesn’t mesh with the film’s desire for cathartic, cinematic violence. Unfortunately, the action that we do get is chaotic and incomprehensible, largely bloodless, and without any sense of

tension. There are times when it feels profoundly like a first-person shooter video game, which makes sense because it’s based on one. Something like “John Wick” worked beautifully to showcase a waterfall of cascading murder. Wick’s motivations were clear: vengeance. Agent 47’s motivations aren’t

Brando’s commitment to his art shines in documentary By Robert Horton

“Listen To Me Marlon” ★★★½

Herald Movie Critic

His parents were Midwestern Gothic: The father a bitter drunk who settled things with violence, the mother a poetic type who couldn’t lay off the booze. Yet in the way of strange, sad American stories, these two souls created a combination of DNA and childhood trauma that birthed one of the definitive actors — why not say artists? — of the mid-20thcentury. The son got his father’s name, Marlon Brando, an ideal moniker for an icon of bigger-thanlife coolness and rebellious disdain. If you’re already up on Brando lore, and especially if you’ve read his oddball autobiography, the new documentary “Listen to

The incomparable (in every sense) Marlon Brando speaks in his own words, a monologue drawn from interviews and his own habit of taping his thoughts. This might not be new to Brando fans, but it’s an absorbing look at a very thoughtful, if childlike, actor, an interesting guy who meant to change movie acting and successfully did so. Rating: Not rated; probably PG for subject matter Showing: SIFF Uptown SHOWTIME

Marlon Brando and his daughter, Cheyenne, in an archival still from the documentary “Listen To Me Marlon.”

Me Marlon” won’t uncover much that’s new. But it’s a pleasure to watch, serving up Brando as a model for other artists who aspire to sincerity and honesty in their work. Director Stevan Riley keeps the film in Brando’s speaking voice, sometimes drawn from interviews, but

mostly taken from his own self-recorded thoughts. It’s illustrated with photographs and film clips (not many of the latter—some great Brando performances are entirely left out). The movie’s not about the career, and it offers no outside analysis of why Brando changed movie

acting; it’s about the interior life of an actor. And Brando had plenty of interior life. He was nothing if not thoughtful, even if it quickly becomes clear that Brando’s ideas rarely went past the level of a bright young man fumbling through the meaning of it all. What impresses you, though, is how Brando never lost his curiosity. All those dud performances in blah movies

toward the end of his life — they were paychecks so he could continue thinking about things and lending his support to causes he believed in. You hear about his sex life, and his island in Tahiti, and his children’s troubles. You also see him replicated as a computer program; before he died, he was digitized, and we watch his ghostly head reciting

Shakespeare. One of the most intriguing threads here is how much Brando intended to change acting. He had very specific complaints about the kind of movie acting that dominated Hollywood before he came along, the canned delivery that made everything easy to predict. Brando couldn’t do it — he already knew the price of “acting,” of participating in the charade of a happy family that was anything but. So he blew it up, and not just in the movies. (Clips from TV appearances show how he could disconcert his interviewers, with honesty or unbridled lust.) He was an open wound, a child, a hungry observer of people. He was one of the movies’ great holy fools, and we could use more like him.

Japanese visual artist’s turgid stab at filmmaking looks lousy, too Herald Movie Critic

In the post-Pokemon era in which we all reside, one is accustomed to battles between bizarre mutant cartoon characters. So there isn’t much surprising about the creatures that pop out of the backpacks of the grade-school students in “Jellyfish Eyes”; the children themselves take it mostly as a matter of course that, by virtue of being Japanese in the 21st century, they will at some point be visited by tiny creatures with superpowers. The movie is not a cartoon but live action with digital beasties, and it looks so bad you wish it were all animated. The story is about a boy, Masashi (Takuto Sueoka),

“Jellyfish Eyes”★★ One of the world’s most profitable visual artists, Takashi Murakami, fashions this odd blend of live action and computer-generated creatures, as a schoolboy discovers that all the kids have weird beasties as friends. The movie looks bad and drags on, even as Murakami tries to make some high-minded points. In Japanese, with English subtitles. Rating: Not rated; probably PG for subject matter Showing: Grand Illusion

who is befriended by a pale jellyfish-like thing just large enough to fit into a bookbag. At first Masashi assumes this is a singular phenomenon, but then his classmates reveal that not only do they have their own pets, they control them with their smartphones. There’s more: All of this

is being watched over by a cadre of teen scientistwizards working for a large agency. They seek to harness the negative energy of adolescents, which is apparently the most powerful energy source in the world. It is important that the creatures fight each other for this energy to be released.

“Jellyfish Eyes” is the brainchild of one of the world’s most profitable visual artists, Takashi Murakami, the guru of the “Superflat” theory of Japanese pop art (along with his exhibition work, he has designed for Louis Vuitton and Kanye West). So it rates more than a passing glance, and you can certainly see ideas straining to make themselves known beneath the bubblegum surface. As a director, Murakami plays around with the disaster imagery that has run through Japanese film since “Godzilla” first soaked up nuclear energy (Masashi’s father died in the Fukushima tsunami, a flashback sequence that delivers some isolated chills), and there’s

a constant critique of the kind of commercial movie that “Jellyfish Eyes” seems to embody. That might have something to do with why this film flopped in Japan in 2013, as audiences have a tendency to get turned off by movies critical of their own existence. Whatever theories

Murakami has perfected in his visual art, he’s miscalculated in his feature-filmmaking dabble. The drabness of the video image wouldn’t pass muster in public-access TV, and there’s no way a pro would let something like this run on for 103 minutes. Pikachu was never so long-winded.

Food Truck Fest rolls into Everett on Saturday By Andrea Brown

Food truck dining tips

Herald Writer

Usually you have to travel to Seattle for food truck nirvana, plus find a parking place. This weekend, the food truck feast is coming to you. About 20 food trucks will serve it up at the Everett Food Truck Festival from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday on Colby Avenue between Everett Avenue and 25th Street. It’s like a food court on wheels. But it’s more than meal. Make a day of it. There will be kids activities, music and a beer and wine garden. Food trucks have come a long way from the “roach coach” image. The trucks are gourmet mobile kitchens. Fare ranges from comfort food to fusion. The chefs are social media savvy. Most have websites, Facebook and Twitter feeds with their menu and schedule. “I’m on the road all

■ Be patient. Many items are cooked fresh. ■ Know what you want in advance. Menus are posted. This saves time at the window. ■ If you’re in a group, have everyone pick a truck, order a bunch of food and eat family style. ■ Bring cash. Most take plastic but some only take cash. ■ Leave some green in the tip jar. IAN TERRY / THE HERALD

Tracy Peterson puts mustard on her hot dog from Big Dog's food truck at the Everett Craft Beer Festival on Aug. 15. This Saturday, the Food Truck Festival takes over downtown.

the time,” said Snohomish County resident Jerry Dixon, 46, owner of the Seahawks themed Big Dog’s food truck. Dixon said he was inspired by the movie “Chef,” about a chef who loses his restaurant job and starts up a food truck. Dixon worked for

the county, but he was inspired anyway. He bought the truck used and wasn’t sure what his specialty would be until he pulled off the vinyl wrap. “It was Seahawks blue,” he said. Bam! As for the speciality hot dog menu? “We sat around

drinking beer and tried different hot dogs. That was the R & D.” For more about the festival, visit www.everettfoodtruckfestival.com.

Three food trucks show good chow comes on wheels, too The Everett Food Truck Festival is a culinary wonderland of fare. About 20 trucks will converge for the event Saturday in downtown Everett. Here are a few trucks we tried. Bread and Circuses: Gastropub eats and circus treats; 314-374-3081, www.eatbreadandcircuses.com. This isn’t a normal food truck with a static menu of burgers or barbecue. Bread and Circuses menu

changes “aggressively” depending on what’s in season. At last Saturday’s Everett Craft Beer Fest, I had the War of the Pig sandwich, with Italian roast pork, arugula, herb aioli, havarti, garlic and chili oil on a hoagie roll. It was amazing. The roast pork was moist and the havarti and aioli matched perfectly. Friends tried the spinach quesadilla and the circus burger. The burger had provel cheese,

arugula, pickled red onion and three pepper cider aioli on a bone marrow bun. Sandwiches were $10 each. They also had sides of freedom fries, mac & beer cheese and a beet salad for $5 each. Check it out, and be surprised at what’s on the menu. Big Dog’s: “beef mode” food truck with specialty hot dogs; 425-343-5921, www.uhungrybro.com. The claim is pretty straight forward: “Biggest

Weiner Around.” The Seahawks themed food truck is based in Snohomish County and serves about 10 different hot dogs with names like L.O.B., Sherman and, of course, Wilson. Herald writer David Krueger got the L.O.B., made with “lots of bacon” and Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce. He was gracious enough to share some with me and it was juicy and well cooked. The bacon added a nice saltiness that was

balanced by the BBQ sauce. Big Dog’s uses a number of combinations of sauerkraut, jalapeños, onions, cream cheese, sriracha and more to make up its hot dogs, including the Ref, topped with blue cheese, A-1 Steak Sauce and onions. You can also call an audible and pick any three toppings. In true Seahawks fashion, Big Dog’s offers Skittles as well. Aaron Swaney, Herald writer

Atsuki’s Food Truck: sushi, teriyaki, Japanese dishes with bacon; 425-366-1660, www. atsukisfoodtruck.com. I ordered almost everything on the menu board last week when Atsuki’s was at Snohomish Farmers Market, then brought it all to The Herald newsroom for sampling. Items weren’t consumed hot off the grill, as is the proper way to eat it according to the chef, who didn’t See FOOD TRUCKS, Page 8

It was all very good, but the beef had a nice zing in its flavor that said ‘Order me. I’m the best.’” Karen Van Horn, legals data clerk: “I thought the beef was tender and tasty.

Here’s what others in The Herald offices said: Lynn Jefferson, creative services manager: “Four stars for the munchie mobile—especially the bacon fried rice ($6.75). Who doesn’t love anything with bacon in it?” Ian McLean, advertising assistant: “The bacon cooked in this rice lends its flavor to the rest of the ensemble of the fried rice. It gives a slight bacon flavor to the rice and eggs that is absolutely to die for. Beef teriyaki ($7.50) was not too sweet as teriyaki can get. The beef itself is moist and tender with a little bit of spiciness to keep you on your toes, with the rice to cool off your tongue for your next bite. The bacon yakisoba ($6.75) is delicious. The noodles are nice and soft and plenty flavorful. Tuna roll ($4): The rice is soft and feels fresh. The tuna

EVERETT — The Everett Chorale has reached its golden year. Under the direction of Lee Mathews, the 70-voice chorale is celebrating its 50th anniversary season. Mathews has been with the chorale for nearly half its tenure as Everett’s premiere choir, a cornerstone of the local performing arts scene. The chorale had its start in the 1960s at Everett Community College. Longtime soprano Diane Giese likes to sing the praises of the chorale and her experiences with the musical group. “The chorale is a wonderful outlet for people who want to work with an experienced director. Lee knows how to pick a variety of wonderful music each season,” Giese said. “This 50th anniversary year is a great time for people to join the chorale.” Concerts, to be performed at 7 p.m. Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays this year at the Everett Performing Arts Center, include: ■ “Celebrate and Dance” on Dec. 5 and 6. ■ “Celebrate and Shout” on April 16 and 17. ■ “Celebrate and Sing” on

new material during Isaaks’s stop here. Expect plenty of retro-rockabilly swagger, though. Tickets are $45 to $69.50 at ticketmaster. com or 800-745-3000.

Herald Writer

Modest Mouse is coming home. The alt-rock act, which first formed in Issaquah and cut its teeth in Seattle clubs, has been a mainstay on the national stage for nearly a decade now. Chalk that success up to the song “Float On.” Released in 2004, the track helped bring the group’s bristly take on rock to the mainstream. Since its release, the band has hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and become the type of act that headlines major festivals for tens of thousands of fans. At 7:30 p.m. Aug. 24 and 25, however, the band will scale things back a bit, playing a pair of relatively intimate shows at Seattle’s Paramount Theatre. The group is touring now behind its latest album, “Strangers to Ourselves,” which hit No. 1 on the rock charts in March. Tickets are $41.25 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849. Meanwhile, this weekend will find Slipknot headlining the 99.9 KISW’s annual Pain in the Grass at the White River Amphitheatre. The hard-rock show starts at 2 p.m. Aug. 23. Slipknot got its start in Iowa in 1995, making a name for itself thanks to its harsh take on nu-metal and its outroshowmanship — each member dresses in a horrific costume suitable for Halloween. The band has become icons in the hard rock scene, with its latest album, “.5: The Gray Chapter,” hitting No. 1 in

2014. The festival line-up will welcome many other likeminded acts. Other bands scheduled to play include Lamb of God, Three Days

Grace, Bullet for My Valentine and Theory of a Deadman, among many other groups. Tickets are $32 to $72 at ticketmaster.com or

Also this weekend, a pair of shows will roll into the Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery in Woodinville. First up is a visit from Michael Franti, who plays the venue at 7 p.m. Aug. 22. Franti may be best known for the song “Say Hey (I Love You),” released in 2009. That track found Franti taking a break from the political activism of his earlier career for the simple pleasures of pop. It also brought him a wider audience, with his past two albums, “The Sound of Sunshine” and “All People,” both becoming top 40 records. The charismatic singer

is touring now just months after releasing a new single, “Once a Day.” That track again showcased Franti’s summery blend of reggae, rock and hip-hop. Tickets are $39.50 to $65 at ticketmaster.com or 800-745-3000. Then, at 7 p.m.Aug. 23, Chris Isaak will roll into the Woodinville venue. Isaak’s suave style seems well-suited to the winery. The singer, known for the 1990s hits “Wicked Game” and “Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing,” hasn’t released a new album since 2010, when “Beyond the Sun” hit the charts. So it’s a toss-up if fans will get to hear too much

That same night, Miguel will play Seattle at 8 p.m. Aug. 23, for a concert at the Showbox SoDo. The Grammy-nominated producer and singer is the latest R&B artist to wow the critics with his hyper-sexualized take on pop. After making a splash as a producer, he decided to release his own material, hitting it big with his second album, “Kaleidoscope Dream.” His follow-up to that record, “Wildheart,” hit No. 2 on the charts earlier this year. It was preceded by the song “Coffee,” about two people and their morning-after romp. Tickets are $35 at showboxonline.com or 888-929-7849. And finally, American Idol Live! will bring the reality show’s final five contestants to Seattle’s McCaw Hall for a show at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 25. The show, a one-time juggernaut, used to bring most of its cast on the road for stadium-sized shows, but this year the producers have scaled things back — perhaps due to the show’s waning popularity — for what is billed as an “up close and personal” show with the season’s most popular singers. Tickets are $49 to $63.50 at stgpresents.org or 877-784-4849.

Future looks brighter for Everett dance school Strong faculty is major benefit Herald staff EVERETT — The Dance School of Everett is celebrating its 10th season. The nonprofit school, located in the former Betty Spooner ballet studio in downtown Everett since 2006, initially didn’t have much hope of becoming a fixture in Everett, said executive director Heidi Heimarck. However, because of hard work by its board of directors, faculty and staff, the school’s future looks stable, she said. Good faculty hires are part of the success,

Heimarck said. That includes dance teacher Christine Weh, who has been promoted to director of education at the school. Weh has added movement class for all ages — from infant to octogenarian, choreography classes, beginning teen ballet, dance for musical theater and a class for children with sensory issues called “Dance: the Senses & Emotions.” The school already taught ballet, modern dance, jazz, tap and hip hop. Weh also has increased performances presented by the school, Heimarck said. The Dance School offers an annual production of “Nutcracker,” which will be performed this year with

John Denver tribute singer uncannily looks the part Herald staff EVERETT — Ted Vigil is John Denver. If you saw him on the street, you might do a double-take. Vigil, a longtime musician, did not intend to make a career as a tribute singer. But his resemblance prompted others to tell Vigil, already performing as a singer, that he should to perform as an homage to John Denver. Now he is considered by many to be the best of the tributes to Denver. As Vigil delved deeper into his doppelgänger, he began to feel a kinship for Denver, who was a prolific recording artist in the 1970s. Known for hits such as “Thank God, I’m a Country Boy,” “Annie’s Song,” “Sunshine on My Shoulders” and “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” Denver died in 1997 in a crash of a small plane he

was piloting. “His songs are about real life and real people and real life experiences,” Vigil has said. As John Denver, Vigil performs Saturday night at the Historic Everett Theatre. In his concerts, Vigil likes to perform a variety of tunes from Denver’s songbook, typically upbeat songs, but also songs that people may not be as familiar with. “And I do three or four

of my own songs. One song is about John and about taking care of the environment,” a cause for which Denver was known. Born in Seattle and raised in the Olympia area, Vigil has been a performer since age 10, and was a drummer in concert, jazz and rock bands. Last year Vigil was awarded the Rising Legend Award by the National Traditional Country Music Association.

The KidStage version of the 1960s musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” continues through Aug. 23 at the Everett Performing Arts Center. The cast of 47 includes young people ages 10 through 18.

EVERETT — Ayana Uriu fell in love with theater when she was in middle school. Now, as a staff member at Village Theatre’s KidStage in Everett, she is watching middle school students cultivate their passion for theater arts. Uriu, 24, is the stage manager for the current KidStage summer stock production of the musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.” “In middle school, I never thought of theater in terms of a career,” Uriu said. “But after four years in the Everett High School drama club, I applied to

2802 Broadway, Everett • 425-259-3191 • www.voaww.org

“And I’ve been there since,” said Uriu, who is the site coordinator in Everett. “It’s been amazing. I brag about my job. It’s a hobby and a passion that I get paid for.” The role of the stage manager on a professional stage is as important as the actor, director, choreographer and set designer, Uriu said. “The director is the creative mind. The stage manager is the organizational mind and the lead communicator,” she said. “Theater is a team sport.” The “team” aspect leads Uriu to talk about the cast. This production has 47 cast members, ages 10 through 18. “It’s a feat that we fit them all on stage,” Uriu said with a laugh. “Along with our professional theater staff — directors, designers and all technical folks, I have to say that these kids are professionals, too. I am proud of all of them. And each one gets a special moment. “They are entertaining, energetic and hilarious.” These teens and tweens are performing a classic, she said. “It’s been fun to revive this Tony award-winning and Pulitzer prize-winning Frank Loesser musical from the 1960s,” Uriu said. “The cast really gets the pace of the comedy. For the price ($16 general,

$14 for youth and seniors) of admission, the show couldn’t be better.” Window washer J. Pierrepont Finch dreams of hitting the big time when he finds a book called “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.” With this guide to success, Finch lands a job at World Wide Wickets and will step on as many hands as he can trying to climb up the corporate ladder. From high-powered executives, to backstabbing co-workers and, of course, big dance numbers, the show is an irreverent lampoon of the world of business and all it holds sacred. “Even if you have seen the show before, we have revamped some of the numbers in order to show off the casts’ skills,” Uriu said. “So come see our version. It’s very exciting.” Gale Fiege: 425-3393427; gfiege@heraldnet. com. Twitter: @galefiege.

If you go Village Theatre’s KidStage summer stock production of the musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” continues at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 21 and 22 and 2 p.m. Aug 23 at Everett Performing Arts Center, 2710 Wetmore Ave.
