Drunken man left under bridge Three firefighters from Everett drove Kirk Spencer nearly to Marysville, dropped him off and told him not to come back. By Rikki King Herald Writer

EVERETT — Three Everett firefighters were called out July 1 to help a homeless man who was

drunk and lying on a downtown sidewalk. They and others in the department had dealt with the man more than 100 times in the past. One of them, a fire captain,

decided to drive the man nearly to Marysville and leave him underneath a bridge with two bottles of water on an 83-degree day. The firefighters told Kirk Spencer, 51, not to come back to town and to “get off the sauce,” according to documents obtained by The Herald under state public

records laws. Then the crews omitted what happened from their logs. They didn’t consider Spencer a patient, so they reported that no patient had been treated or transported. Others at the fire department were appalled and alerted their bosses. After an investigation, the three

firefighters received this discipline: The captain got a letter of reprimand. Two others were admonished in person. “It is clear the actions that were taken in that incident were beyond what we consider to be reasonable,” Fire Chief Murray See BRIDGE, Page A10

by large boulders and debris falling from the surrounding mountains. In total, the fires making up the Upper Skagit Complex Fire have grown to 6,655 acres. Of those who have been evacuated, many have been Seattle City Light employees who live in Diablo. Tim Lorkowski, 56, is an engineer with Seattle City Light. He said he had to leave his home in Diablo at about 4:30 p.m. Aug. 19 when the town was evacuated. There was heavy smoke around his house, and he was only able to take a couple of items with him.

Organizers are adding extra days after a study showed other major fairs had successfully extended their runs, according to information about the change posted on the Puyallup event’s website. That’s going to leave the Evergreen State Fair competing for attendance, exhibitors, entertainment and vendors, fair manager Hal Gausman said. Snohomish County, which owns and operates the fairgrounds, has staff looking into ways to draw people to Monroe instead of losing them to Puyallup. “We’ll continue to put on the best fair possible,” Gausman said. “My goal is every time you turn around, you see something that makes you smile.” He plans to do that by increasing the amount of money spent on free entertainment during the 2016 fair and making improvements around the grounds.

NEWHALEM — At night, Alan Ferrara can hear trees falling in the forest. If he looks across the Skagit River from his home, he can see flames. Ferrara, like many other Seattle City Light employees, lives in Newhalem, which has been surrounded the past week by the wildfires known collectively as the Upper Skagit Complex Fire. Newhalem also is home to the Skagit River Hydroelectric Project, which supplies about a quarter of Seattle’s power. However, “that’s not happening right now,” Ferrara said. The Goodell Fire, by far the

Crews in the area have not been able to access the power lines to repair them. Even though the fire is growing, firefighters have been successful preventing the flames from reaching any structures. The fire, triggered by lightning Aug. 10, started to spread

quickly Aug. 19. Ferrara, a Seattle City Light maintenance manager, said he watched it move from one side of town to the other within 20 minutes. It crossed the Skagit River near the Gorge Powerhouse, and firefighters along with Seattle City Light employees fought the flames and prevented it from reaching the building. It has forced evacuations in Newhalem and Diablo, including the North Cascades Environmental Learning Center and the North Cascades Visitor Center. Ross Lake Resort also has been evacuated.

Firefighter Jay Flora mops up a hot spot on a downed tree along the Trail of Cedars across the Skagit River from Newhalem on Wednesday afternoon. Crews are working on a second day of mop-up since the initial flames came through the area. The Goodell Fire around Newhalem and Diablo is 0 percent contained. Because of the difficult terrain, the fire cannot be fought on its leading edges. Instead, crews are trying to protect key assets around Newhalem including Seattle City Light structures and North Cascades National Park buildings and campsites.

Cascades Environmental Learning Center, which has mostly been evacuated, have been cooking meals for firefighters, Ferrara said. Call, a firefighter from Utah who travels with fire management teams across the nation, said it might be a while before things change.

With a lack of resources and the terrain in the North Cascades that firefighters are dealing with, he said, there are simply not a lot of options at their disposal to stop the fire from spreading. “This is probably one of the least forgiving places I’ve been,” Call said.

on a youth livestock auction at the Evergreen .... State Fair in 2016. Organizers are promoting it this year in hopes of getting young people to bring their animals back to Monroe. Fair attendance has been growing in recent years. In 2014, 348,628 people attended. That’s up 2 percent from 2013. “We’re one of the few fairs around the country that’s growing,” said Troy Kleine, the fair’s marketing specialist. Snohomish County spends about $2.5 million annually to put on the fair. In 2014, it ended up with about $1.1 million in revenue after covering costs of running the fairgrounds year-round. The county is now putting that money back into repairs and upgrades around the grounds in hopes the improvements will give the almost 200acre facility along U.S. 2 an

edge over the competition. After the fair, the Beef Pavilion is slated for a $250,000 revamp that includes a new roof. Plans are also in place to put in a covered walkway that connects it to the Event Center and other upgrades. It will allow for 51,000 square feet of space that can house larger trade shows. Other smaller improvements are also planned for 2015, including safety upgrades and pavement repairs. Gausman’s staff and the Snohomish County Arts Commission are working on ideas to beautify the tunnels at the fairground entrance. “I just want people to start smiling when they get out of the car,” Gausman said. The county has also been making improvements to the equestrian area, including putting better sand in the arena and patching

leaky roofs. The hope is to attract more horse shows to Monroe, giving the fairgrounds a steadier yearround draw. In the future, the county hopes to bring in a restaurant near the equestrian area, Gausman said. There’s also talk of putting in sound walls between the fairgrounds and U.S. 2 and around Evergreen Speedway. People also have suggested that the county or the city of Monroe buy the general aviation airport next to the fairgrounds. Gausman said the county would like to use the 32-acre property to expand the equestrian area or the parking lot but it can’t afford it now. The owner of First Air Field has asked for $6 million for the land. City leaders in Monroe also have discussed putting a hotel there. A hotel would benefit events at the

fairgrounds all year, Gausman said. Other major projects being considered are a new commercial building that could compete with larger venues across the region. The fairground’s old 24,000-square-foot commercial building needs to be torn down and replaced. Gausman said that could happen sometime after the 2016 fair, depending on whether the county has about $2 million to put into it. Eventually, he said, the commercial building could be expanded to 100,000 square feet. The $12 million project could be completed in phases to make it more affordable. “We have to remain competitive,” Gausman said. “To me the fairgrounds should be the best the county has to offer.” Amy Nile: 425-339-3192; anile@heraldnet.com.

“I didn’t anticipate it being this severe for this long,” Lorkowski said. The fire is growing from all sides but is most actively moving to the south. Because of the steep terrain, firefighters can’t put a fire line around it to stop it from spreading. Planes can’t help because the area is too smoky, said Dennis Godfrey, a spokesman for the fire management team. “This fire has been 0 percent contained,” Godfrey said, “and it probably will be for a while.” Since the terrain prevents firefighters from containing the fire, they are doing all they can to protect assets. So far, they’ve been successful with that, said Matt Call, a division supervisor for the Upper Skagit Complex incident management team. For example, firefighters were still monitoring flames along the Trail of the Cedars, which runs

MONROE — Picture the fun, just not yourself. That’s the message from officials at the Evergreen State Fair, which opens at 10 a.m. Thursday and continues through Labor Day. This year’s fair theme is “picture the fun.” However, organizers have banned selfie sticks, extendable poles that connect to a smartphone, allowing users a longer reach to snap photos of themselves. Fairs and amusement parks across the country have asked people to leave their selfie sticks at home because they can get caught in rides or poke people, Evergreen State Fair Manager Hal Gausman said. “I’m encouraging people to make new friends and ask someone to take their picture,” he said. Selfies aside, this year’s fair boasts amusements, agriculture, arts and animals from around Snohomish County. “Our fair feels like a fair,” said Troy Kleine, marketing specialist, noting some fairs have shifted from an agricultural focus to become more like trade shows. New to the fair this year are animal races with goats, sheep, chickens and pigs. Last year, it didn’t have the popular pig races, which disappointed a number of fairgoers. So organizers decided to bring back the petting zoo and add animal races for 2015. “It’s hilarious,” Kleine said. “They’re awesome.” Fair food favorites, such as elephant ears, cheese curds, kettle corn, scones, turkey legs and cotton candy will be among the many sweet and savory options. Butler Amusements is returning with carnival rides this year.

OSO MUDSLIDE

Judge limits extent of claims in Oso slide litigation Herald staff OSO — A King County judge continues to weigh what claims can be brought in a 2016 civil trial that will explore whether anyone should be held responsible for the deadly Oso mudslide. King County Superior

Court Judge Roger Rogoff on Aug. 20 ruled that attorneys for the people harmed by the slide won’t be able to claim the state and Snohomish County had special duties to protect people living in the Steelhead Haven neighborhood. The judge’s ruling specifically bars claims

about the state’s alleged mishandling of forest practices regulations and the county’s implementation of the state Growth Management Act. Claims about the county’s adoption of a flood hazard management plan will be allowed, the judge ruled, but he added that his

earlier ruling establishing boundaries on the county liability related to flood control “significantly limits” what can be argued. Rosoff also made clear that his decision so far in no way bars the people harmed by the slide from arguing under different

legal theories that the state or county remain liable for their actions and decisions. Trial in the case is now set for June 2016, with the parties already listing hundreds of potential witnesses and dozens of experts. The case was to have been heard in October, but the state

asked for time to conduct drilling and monitoring on the hill to gather and analyze data about how the site’s geology interacts with groundwater. Forty-three people died and dozens of homes were destroyed on March 22, 2014, when the hill collapsed.

$402M in ‘kicker’ rebates will be given to Oregonians By Jonathan J. Cooper Associated Press

SALEM, Ore. — Oregon will send $402 million back to taxpayers next year after the state collected more than expected in personal-income taxes over the past two years, state economists said Wednesday. The estimated median rebate under Oregon’s “kicker” law will be $124, though the value varies significantly based on income. Oregon’s kicker law was created in 1979 as a check on government growth. It’s triggered when the state collects at least 2 percent more than anticipated during a two-year budget cycle. When that happens, the additional money is kicked back to taxpayers. Tax increases from 2013 and the economic recovery helped Oregon generate about 3 percent more than anticipated in personal income taxes during the 2013-2015 budget period. In the past, kicker rebates have arrived as a check shortly before the holidays, making them a beloved feature of state tax laws. Because of a change made in 2011, however, the money will now come as a credit

when Oregonians file their taxes next year. The kicker money will increase the size of a refund or decrease the final tax bill. Taxpayers will get a kicker credit worth 6.3 percent of their 2014 state tax bill, said Josh Lehner, a senior economist with the Office of Economic Analysis. People with no tax liability that year are not eligible for a kicker. To claim the credit, individuals will need to file a 2015 tax return by April 15 next year, even if they have no income in Oregon that year. The value of an individual’s kicker is based on his or her 2014 state tax bill. The top 1 percent of taxpayers — who earn at least $336,000 a year — will get an estimated $4,614 and the bottom 20 percent will get $10, according to economists. Oregonians last received kicker rebates in 2007, when $1.1 billion was returned to taxpayers. This will be the ninth time the kicker has been triggered since the law was enacted in 1979. As a percentage of individuals’ tax liability, this year’s kicker will be among the smallest. The 2007 rebate was worth three times as much, 18.6 percent.

“This one won’t feel as bad in terms of the budgetary impact, nor will it feel as good for the folks getting the money back,” said Mark McMullen, the state’s chief economist. Supporters of the kicker law say unexpected money belongs with taxpayers. “When the economy does well, Oregonians should reap the benefits, not state government,” said Rep. Mike McLane, the top Republican in the House. Critics say it prevents the state from saving during good times to avoid budget cuts during lean times, contributing to a volatile state budget. Kicker critics have talked for years about eliminating it and using the money to feed a rainyday fund, but they’ve struggled to find support. Because the kicker is part of the state constitution, any changes must be approved by voters. If lawmakers were to design a tax policy from a blank slate, “we would not end up with the tax code that we have now,” said Sen. Mark Hass, a Beaverton Democrat who’s long advocated an overhaul. “So why don’t we do that?” Has said. “Why don’t we start from scratch?”

Man held in Sultan drive-by shooting SULTAN — A man was booked into the Snohomish County Jail for investigation of a drive-by shooting in Sultan on Wednesday, according to a sheriff’s office report. A caller reported that shots were fired into some vehicles and at a home around 12:15 a.m. in the 100 block of Main Street. About half an hour later, a suspect, 32, was arrested. No one was injured.

Mill Creek: Driver flees after car collides with bicyclist Police in Mill Creek are investigating a hit-and-run collision that sent a bicyclist to the hospital early Wednesday morning. The man, 53, was listed in critical condition at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett. The crash occurred around 1:30 a.m. at 35th Avenue SE and Silver Crest Drive. A witness described seeing a silver SUV with damage on the side driving

westbound on Silver Crest Drive after the sound of the collision was heard, Mill Creek police officer Ian Durkee said. The Snohomish County Sheriff’s Office Collision Investigation Unit and Mill Creek police were at the crash scene.

Everett: County Council considers hiring freeze The Snohomish County Council is considering an emergency hiring freeze as more signs emerge of troubled county finances. County Councilman Brian Sullivan introduced a proposal Wednesday that could go to a vote as early as next week. It would apply to most of the county’s approximately 2,800 budgeted positions. There are exceptions for the sheriff’s office and some top administrative positions. The county last imposed a hiring freeze in 2008, when the effects of the Great Recession began to set in. County Executive John Lovick is scheduled to recommend a budget for 2016 by the end of September. Final say rests with the County Council. From Herald staff reports

‘Cougar nation’ remembers WSU President Elson Floyd Associated Press PULLMAN — Everyone in Washington state seemed to be part of the “Cougar Nation” on Wednesday as students, politicians, alumni, faculty and staff gathered at Washington State University to remember President Elson S. Floyd, who died in June. Gov. Jay Inslee praised Floyd, 59, for his leadership in higher education across the state and the nation, and for making WSU a statewide university. “If they ever have the Mount Rushmore of college presidents, he will be on it,” Inslee said of Floyd, who died of complications from colon cancer. At the memorial in Beasley Coliseum, the WSU president since 2007 was praised repeatedly for his leadership in raising money for the university, for putting students and education first and convincing the Legislature to support his vision of a new WSU medical school. Inslee said Floyd will always be remembered for his leadership and his passion, “not just as one of the greatest Cougars, but one of the greatest Washington leaders.”

You made a difference in his life. Our family truly cannot tell you how grateful we are. — Carmento Floyd, Elson Floyd’s wife

Ryan Durkan, chairwoman of the university Board of Regents, called Floyd a tireless advocate of higher education in the state and the nation. Others spoke of his drive and energy even after being diagnosed with cancer. The university Board of Regents has said it intends to name the new medical school in Floyd’s honor. Others spoke of his humanity. Paula Groves Price, associate professor in the Department of Teaching and learning, shared a story about the time the university president carried her baby daughter

around at an important university event, and even held her while he gave his speech. “Dr. Floyd loved children, he loved our WSU students,” Price said. “We loved him back.” Carmento Floyd, the president’s wife, thanked the “Cougar Nation” for making her family part of the WSU family and for being there for her when her husband died. “You made a difference in his life. Our family truly cannot tell you how grateful we are,” she said, adding that the WSU president often said he had 28,000 children. Floyd enjoyed walking around the Pullman campus greeting students, and would pass out his personal cellphone number to them. Many students called him by his nickname, “E Flo.” Research grants tripled under his leadership and WSU completed 30 major construction projects, including a Wine Science Center at WSU Tri-Cities, which opened this year. The memorial ended with the WSU marching band playing the school fight song and the school mascot jumping across the stage.

Lynden man charged again in Border Patrol incident By Martha Bellisle Associated Press

SEATTLE — A Whatcom County man who spent time in federal prison for shining a spotlight at a U.S. Border Patrol Blackhawk helicopter that was flying over his house has been indicted on new charges involving Border Patrol agents, but his wife says he was just trying to get away from them. The two-count federal indictment unsealed Tuesday said Wayne Groen intentionally assaulted, impeded and interfered

with three U.S. Border Patrol agents July 17 while they were engaged in their official duties. The first count refers to an incident with two agents identified only as C.M. and W.B. and says Groen used “a dangerous and deadly weapons, that is, a vehicle.” The second count refers to one agent called J.M. but doesn’t mention a weapon. Groen’s wife, Nicki Groen, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that the Border Patrol agents were putting up a camera across the road from their house and he sped past

them in his car. “He was just trying to get out of there,” she said. The agents then claimed Groen was trying to hit them, she said. Their Lynden home is within a mile of the Canadian border and many people in town feel constantly harassed by agents, she said. “They’re just picking on us,” she said. A spokeswoman for the U.S. Border Protection referred questions about the case to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Emily Langlie, a spokeswoman for the U.S.

Attorney’s Office in Seattle, said “we take the safety of our Border Patrol agents seriously.” Groen was convicted in 2011 after he stood in his underwear and shined a high-powered spotlight into the cabin of a Customs and Border Protection helicopter. He claimed the Blackhawk was about 600 feet over his home. His lawyers said he was simply curious about what the helicopter was doing so close to his home, and wanted to warn them against causing damage to his property. Federal officials said the

helicopter pilot was wearing night vision goggles and the spotlight blinded him, making it impossible to fly the aircraft. The co-pilot had to direct them away from the area, according to a U.S. Attorney’s Office statement. A federal jury found him guilty on one count of incapacitation of an individual operating an aircraft. He was acquitted on a second charge of interfering with an aircraft. He was sentenced to 60 days in prison. After the helicopter incident, the agency held town meetings to ease tensions

between agents and the community, Nicki Groen said. “They seemed to mellow out for a while but now they’re back at it,” she said.

Federal review finds vulnerabilities with Hanford plant Associated Press RICHLAND â€” A partial review of an unfinished nuclear waste treatment plant on the Hanford Nuclear Reservation found 362 vulnerabilities in

its design, according to the watchdog group Hanford Challenge, which obtained a leaked copy of the review. The Tri-City Herald reported Wednesday that the information in the review was a surprise

because the U.S. Department of Energy told the state of Washington that there were no major known technical issues remaining for the plantâ€™s Low Activity Waste Facility. Contractor Bechtel

National, which is designing and building the plant for the Energy Department, said the review is an example of the oversight that is a standard part of the vitrification plant project. Hanford, located near

Richland, for decades made plutonium for nuclear weapons. The site is now engaged in cleaning up the nationâ€™s largest collection of nuclear waste. The $12.3 billion Hanford vitrification plant is

designed to turn nuclear waste into a glasslike substance for eventual burial. Work on the plant has stopped while design and safety issues are addressed. The Low Activity Waste Facility is one of four major buildings being built on the vitrification plant campus. It is expected to start operating in 2022. Bechtel said it provided the review team with comments on an early version of the report. The draft contained factual inaccuracies and fewer than 5 percent of the comments were new and none were major, Bechtel said. The issues are being addressed, Bechtel said. â€œUnfortunately, todayâ€™s new details about problems with constructing the Hanford Waste Treatment Plant are not surprising,â€? said Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore.

War intelligence investigated Central Command may have exaggerated successes against Islamic State By Robert Burns Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Pentagon’s inspector general is investigating an allegation that the military command overseeing the anti-Islamic State campaign distorted or altered intelligence assessments to exaggerate progress against the militant group, a defense official said Wednesday. The official was not authorized to discuss the probe publicly and so spoke on condition of anonymity. The investigation was first disclosed by The New York Times. The paper reported that the investigation began after at least one civilian Defense Intelligence Agency analyst told authorities that he had evidence that officials at

U.S. Central Command were improperly reworking conclusions of assessments prepared for policy makers, including President Barack Obama. Details of the allegations were not available. A spokeswoman for the inspector general’s office, Bridget Serchak, declined to comment. Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook said he could not confirm the probe. The Pentagon typically does not publicly comment on the work of the inspector general’s office, which is an independent arm of the Defense Department. Cook said Defense Secretary Ash Carter “counts on independent intelligence and analysis from a variety of sources to help him make critical decisions about the nation’s security.”

White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Obama “places a premium” on getting unvarnished intelligence assessments and a range of views for policymakers. “That yields, in the minds of our experts, the best, richest account of the facts on the ground,” Earnest said, adding that the president is confident he is receiving honest intelligence assessments. A Pentagon spokesman, Navy Capt. Jeff Davis, said Pentagon and Central Command officials have been publicly candid about the difficulty of the war against the Islamic State. At times, however, they have painted a rosier picture than was reflected by developments on the ground. On May 15, for example, Brig.

Gen. Thomas Weidley, who at the time was chief of staff to the military headquarters running the war, told reporters that the Islamic State was “losing and remains on the defensive.” Even as he spoke, Iraqi officials were saying that IS fighters had captured the main government compound in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province. Two days later the city fell, marking a significant victory for IS and a setback for the U.S. and Iraq. Air Force Col. Patrick Ryder, a spokesman for Central Command, said he could not discuss ongoing investigations. “The (inspector general) has a responsibility to investigate all allegations made and we welcome and support their independent oversight,” Ryder said.

DoD: Journalists can be held as ‘belligerents’ By Wendy Benjaminson Associated Press

WASHINGTON — New Defense Department guidelines allow commanders to punish journalists and treat them as “unprivileged belligerents” if they believe journalists are sympathizing or cooperating with the enemy. The Law of War manual, updated to apply for the first time to all branches of the military, contains a vaguely worded provision that military commanders could interpret broadly, experts in military law and journalism say. Commanders could ask journalists to leave military bases or detain journalists for any number of perceived offenses. “In general, journalists are civilians,” the 1,180 page manual says, but it adds that “journalists may be members of the armed forces, persons authorized to accompany the

armed forces, or unprivileged belligerents.” A person deemed “unprivileged belligerent” is not entitled to the rights afforded by the Geneva Conventions so a commander could restrict from certain coverage areas or even hold indefinitely without charges any reporter considered an “unprivileged belligerent.” The manual adds, “Reporting on military operations can be very similar to collecting intelligence or even spying. A journalist who acts as a spy may be subject to security measures and punished if captured.” It is not specific as to the punishment or under what circumstances a commander can decide to “punish” a journalist. Defense Department officials said the reference to “unprivileged belligerents” was intended to point out that terrorists or spies could be masquerading as reporters, or warn against someone who

works for jihadist websites or other publications, such as alQaida’s “Inspire” magazine, that can be used to encourage or recruit militants. Another provision says that “relaying of information” could be construed as “taking a direct part in hostilities.” Officials said that is intended to refer to passing information about ongoing operations, locations of troops or other classified data to an enemy. Army Lt. Col. Joe Sowers, a Pentagon spokesman, said it was not the Defense Department’s intent to allow an overzealous commander to block journalists or take action against those who write critical stories. “The Department of Defense supports and respects the vital work that journalists perform,” Sowers said. “Their work in gathering and reporting news is essential to a free society and the rule of law.”

His statement added that the manual is not policy and not “directive in nature.” “I’m troubled by the label ‘unprivileged belligerents,’ which seems particularly hostile,” said Kathleen Carroll, AP’s executive editor. “It sounds much too easy to slap that label on a journalist if you don’t like their work, a convenient tool for those who want to fight wars without any outside scrutiny.” Journalists working for The Associated Press and other news organizations have been detained or thrown out of embed arrangements for stories, video or photographs that the military found unflattering, even before the new manual was published June 21. But the manual has raised concerns that commanders would feel even more free to find fault with reporting — or that other governments might use the U.S. rules to mistreat reporters working on their soil.

Reporter, cameraman killed on live TV By Steve Helber, Pam Ramsey and Jonathan Drew Associated Press

MONETA, Va. — He planned it all so carefully — a choreographed execution of two former colleagues, broadcast live to a horrified television audience. Hours later, he shared his own recording of the killing worldwide on social media. Vester Lee Flanagan’s video shows him approaching WDBJ reporter Alison Parker and cameraman Adam Ward, gun in hand, as they conduct an interview. He points the gun at Parker and then at Ward, but he waits patiently to shoot until he knows that Parker is on camera, so she will be gunned down on air. TV viewers heard about the first eight of 15 shots. They saw Parker scream and run, and heard her crying, “Oh my God!” as she fell. Ward fell, too, and the camera he had been holding on his shoulder captured a fleeting image of the suspect holding a handgun. That man, authorities said, was Flanagan — a former staffer who used the on-air name of Bryce Williams and was fired by WDBJ, a man who always was looking for reasons to take offense, colleagues recalled. He fled the scene but then posted his own 56-second video of the murders on Twitter and Facebook. He later ran off a highway while being pursued hundreds of miles away and was captured; he died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Wednesday’s on-air murders reverberated far from central Virginia because that’s just what the killer wanted — not just to avenge perceived wrongs, but to gain maximum, viral exposure. He used

his insider’s knowledge of TV journalism against his victims — a 24-year-old reporter and WDBJ-TV a 27-year-old Vester Lee cameraman Flanagan engaged to a producer who watched the slaughter live from the control room. Parker was dating Chris Hurst, an anchor at the station and had just moved in with him. Flanagan’s planning may have started weeks ago when, ABC News said, a man claiming to be Bryce Williams called repeatedly, saying he wanted to pitch a story and needed fax information. He sent ABC’s newsroom a 23-page fax two hours after the 6:45 a.m. shooting that was part-manifesto, part-suicide note — calling himself a gay black man who had been mistreated by people of all races, and saying he bought the gun two days after nine black people were

killed in a June 17 shooting at a Charleston church. He described himself as a “human powder keg,” that was “just waiting to go BOOM!!!!” Parker and Ward provided stories for the station’s “Mornin”’ show. On Wednesday, they were interviewing a local official at an outdoor shopping mall for a tourism story before the shots rang out. As Parker screamed and Ward collapsed, Ward’s camera kept rolling, capturing the image of the suspect pointing the gun. WDBJ quickly switched to the anchor back at the station, clearly shocked, who told viewers, “OK, not sure what happened there.” Parker and Ward died at the scene. Their interview subject, Vicki Gardner, also was shot, but emerged from surgery later Wednesday in stable condition. Flanagan, 41, who was fired from WDBJ in 2013, was described by the station’s president and general manager, Jeffrey Marks, as an “an unhappy man” and “difficult to work with,” always “looking

out for people to say things he could take offense to.” “Eventually after many incidents of his anger coming to the fore, we dismissed him. He did not take that well,” Marks said. He recalled that police had to escort Flanagan out of the building because he refused to leave when he was fired. Tweets posted Wednesday on the gunman’s Twitter account — since suspended — described workplace conflicts with both victims. He said he filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission against Parker, and that Ward had reported him to human resources. Marks said Flanagan alleged that other employees made racially tinged comments to him, but that his EEOC claim was dismissed and none of his allegations could be corroborated. Dan Dennison, now a state government spokesman in Hawaii, was the WDBJ news director who hired Flanagan in 2012 and fired him in 2013, largely for performance issues, he said. “We did a thorough investigation and could find no evidence that anyone had racially discriminated against this man,” Dennison said. “You just never know when you’re going to work how a potentially unhinged or unsettled person might impact your life in such a tragic way.” Court records and recollections from former colleagues at a half-dozen other small-market stations where he bounced around indicate that Flanagan was quick to file complaints. He was fired at least twice after managers said he was causing problems with other employees.

ACROSS THE U.S.

Colorado theater shooter sentenced CENTENNIAL, Colo. — The man who unleashed a murderous attack on a packed Colorado movie theater was ordered Wednesday to serve life in prison without parole plus 3,318 years — the maximum allowed by law — before the judge told deputies, “Get the defendant out of my courtroom, please.” Judge Carlos A. Samour Jr. ordered James Holmes, 28, to serve 12 consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole, one for each of the people he killed in the July 20, 2012, attack on a crowded movie theater. He then added another 3,312 years for 70 convictions of attempted murder, and six years for an explosives charge.

D.C.: Newborn panda dies The Smithsonian’s National Zoo said Wednesday that the smaller of the two panda cubs born over the weekend had died. The cub’s health had been in jeopardy for several days after its mother, Mei Xiang, refused to give up the larger of the two cubs to care for it. “The larger cub appears to be strong, robust, behaving normally and is with mother Mei Xiang,” the zoo said. Zoo officials have said that pandas have difficulty caring for two infants at once. To compensate, zookeepers had attempted to swap the cubs out every few hours. But Mei Xiang rejected the smaller cub.

Utah: Boy Scout affiliation The Mormon church announced Wednesday that it will maintain its longtime affiliation with Boy Scouts despite the decision to allow gay troop leaders — preventing what would have been a thundering blow to the national organization. The decision from senior leaders of the Mormon church — the nation’s largest sponsor of Boy Scout units — came as somewhat of a surprise. The church said it was deeply troubled and considering other options when the Boy Scouts announced July 28 that it would lift its ban on gay adult leaders, while allowing church-sponsored Scout units to continue excluding gay adults. Church leaders received assurances they can appoint troop leaders according to their own religious and moral values, the church said Wednesday.

N.Y.: Wal-Mart gun sales Wal-Mart said it will stop stocking the AR-15 and other semi-automatic weapons at its store because fewer people are buying them. The retailer said it will replace them with more hunting rifles and shot guns. A Wal-Mart spokesman said the semi-automatic weapons were sold at fewer than a third of its 4,600 U.S. stores.

AROUND THE WORLD Saudi Arabia: Arrest in Khobar Towers bombing A man described as the mastermind of the 1996 Khobar Towers bombing that killed 19 American servicemen in Saudi Arabia has been captured, a U.S. and a Saudi official said Wednesday, ending a nearly two-decade manhunt for one of the FBI’s most-wanted terrorists. Ahmed al-Mughassil was arrested in Beirut and transferred to Riyadh, the Saudi capital, according to the Saudi newspaper Asharq Alawsat. The June 25, 1996, truck bombing at the Khobar Towers, an eight-story dormitory for U.S. Air Force personnel assigned to the Gulf, wounded 372 Americans. It was the deadliest such attack targeting U.S. forces since the 1983 bombing of the U.S. Marines’ barracks in Beirut that killed 241 American servicemen.

Libya: 51 bodies in hull of migrant ship off Libya A Swedish rescue crew cut up the deck of a migrant boat north of Libya on Wednesday and found the corpses of 51 migrants who died making the dangerous Mediterranean crossing in hopes of reaching Europe. The Swedish ship Poseidon was rescuing 130 migrants from a raft when it got a call to assist a nearby wooden ship, authorities said. The Swedes rescued 439 survivors from the wooden boat then looked for the bodies. The Italian coast guard said that in addition to the 51 dead discovered by the Poseidon crew, three women were found dead in another migrant boat and another corpse was found during the 10 rescue operations that were launched Wednesday. The coast guard said around 3,000 people were rescued. From Herald news services

Dow has its best day in 7 years The market rebounds from a six-day slump prompted by concerns about the health of the Chinese economy. Associated Press

New small Ford truck RICHARD DREW / ASSOCIATED PRESS

Trader Gregory Rowe works on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange on Wednesday. U.S. stocks closed sharply higher, giving the stock market its best day in seven years.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index, a much broader measure of the stock market, gained 72.90 points, or 3.9 percent, to 1,940.51. In percentage terms, it was the best day for the S&P 500 in nearly four years. The Nasdaq composite rose 191.05 points, or 4.2 percent, to 4,697.54. Wall Street professionals said investors apparently saw the big sell-off as an opportunity to go bargain-hunting and buy low. “That always leads to a bounce or spike in the market,” said Quincy Krosby, market strategist for Prudential Financial. Another factor was believed to be a comment Wednesday from the head of the New York Federal Reserve Bank, William Dudley, who said that because of the slowdown in China and other factors, the case for the Fed

to raise rock-bottom interest rates next month for the first time in nearly a decade is “less compelling” than it was a few weeks ago. “That certainly helped the market,” Krosby said. The U.S. stock market has been on a run-up that has lasted more than six years and pushed the major indexes to all-time highs. Investors worry that the economy could falter if the Fed raises rates too soon. Over the past few days, ordinary Americans with 401(k)s and other investments have been calling their financial advisers in search of some reassurance. “I wouldn’t say it is full-blown panic,” said Brennan Miller, a branch manager for Charles Schwab in Chicago. “Markets have been steadily advancing for several years, and that breathed

some complacency. This caught people off guard.” Still, the market has a ways to go before it recovers its run of recent losses. The Dow remains down 8.6 percent this year, while the S&P 500 is off 5.8 percent. The Nasdaq is down just 0.8 percent. In international markets, major indexes in Germany, France and Britain fell anywhere from 1.3 to 1.7 percent. Markets in Asia were mixed. Japan’s Nikkei 225 stock index rose 3.2 percent. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index fell 0.5 percent. The price of oil fell back below $39 a barrel after a U.S. government report showed an unexpected decline in demand for gasoline. U.S. government bond prices fell, and the yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 2.18 percent.

Airlines waging limited fare wars By Scott Mayerowitz Associated Press

biz bits

ABOARD AMERICAN AIRLINES FLIGHT 1223 — Airline fare wars are making a comeback. Don’t expect widespread sales or cheap flights home for Thanksgiving. But a number of cities are seeing ridiculously low prices at off-peak hours — prices the industry has spent the years trying to eliminate. Fliers have been able to fly from Chicago to Boston for $80 roundtrip, San Francisco to Las Vegas for $67 roundtrip and New York to Los Angeles, with a connection, for $150 roundtrip. “This is the big break consumers have been waiting for in response to lower fuel prices,” says Seth Kaplan, managing partner of industry newsletter Airline Weekly. The price of oil is at the lowest level in six and a half years and the industry is saving billions of dollars on fuel, giving airlines leeway to cut fares but still post healthy profits. Airlines also have added larger, more efficient planes to their fleets while packing more seats into existing jets. So, while the number of domestic flights is down slightly over the past 12 months, there are now 3.4 percent more seats for sale — too many to meet the demand in all cities. To fill those extra seats, airlines have had to offer discounts. Still, airlines are being very selective. Forget finding a deal for busy holidays or on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays when business travelers fly. The best prices are for flights on traditionally slow

Monsanto drops takeover of Syngenta WASHINGTON — Agricultural business giant Monsanto is abandoning its takeover bid for competitor Syngenta AG after the Swiss chemical producer rejected its latest offer of nearly $47 billion. A combination with Baselbased Syngenta would have made Monsanto the world’s largest producer of farming chemicals, on top of its market-leading seed business.

By Alex Veiga The Dow Jones industrial average rocketed more than 600 points Wednesday, its biggest gain in seven years, snapping a six-day losing streak that had Americans nervously checking their investment balances. While the surge came as a relief to many, Wall Street professionals warned that more rough days lie ahead, in part because of unsettled conditions in China, where signs of an economic slowdown triggered the sell-off that has shaken global markets over the past week. Heading into Wednesday, the three major U.S. stock indexes had dropped six days in a row, the longest slide in more than three years. The Dow had fallen about 1,900 points over that period, while the slump wiped out more than $2 trillion in corporate value. On Tuesday, a rally on Wall Street collapsed in the final minutes of trading, with the Dow closing more than 200 points lower. On Wednesday, the market opened strong again, and the question all day was whether the rally would hold. It did, and picked up speed just before the closing bell. The Dow vaulted 619.07 points, or 4 percent, to 16,285.51. It was the Dow’s third-biggest point gain of all time and its largest since Oct. 28, 2008, when it soared 889 points.

days like Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday. And it helps if Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines or Frontier Airlines flies the route. For instance, Frontier recently had a sale for members of its club who pay an annual $50 fee. Tickets were being offered for $15 one-way including taxes. American Airlines and — to a lesser extent — Delta Air Lines and United Airlines are matching some of the discount fares. By doing so, they actually undercut the ultra-low-cost carriers because Spirit and Frontier charge customers extra to use overhead baggage bins or to have a drink of water. Spirit and Frontier each carries less than 2 percent of all domestic passengers. American, United and Delta made $6.6 billion in combined profits during the first half of this year, so they afford to fight back on routes such as Chicago to Atlanta.

American spokesman Casey Norton says the airline “constantly looks at how we compete against a wide variety of airlines — from low cost carriers to premium global brands.” Delta and United declined to comment. However, Delta has expanded its “Basic Economy” fare to more than 450 markets. Fliers booking these tickets typically save $15 each way, but are not given advanced seat assignments, can’t cancel or change the flight and are last to board. Fare wars were destructive to the industry in the 1980s. Airlines were focused on being the largest carrier on a route, even though it often meant losing money. Today’s airline industry is more disciplined, so the fare wars cause much less damage. The airlines still collect substantial fares on highly profitable business routes and for holiday travel. Additionally, they take in billions in checked baggage fees

Announcements Mud Bay pet retail company co-CEOs Lars and Marisa Wulff announced a new em-

and other fees that were included in the ticket price back in the 1980s. Even passengers unable to take advantage of today’s bargainbasement deals are getting a tiny bit of relief. The average cost of a roundtrip domestic ticket, including taxes, purchased during the first seven months of this year was $494.12. That’s down $5.41, or 1.1 percent, from the same period last year, according to the Airlines Reporting Corp., which processes ticket transactions for airlines and travel agencies. Prices are still higher than they were in 2011, 2012 and 2013, even when adjusted for inflation. And the small drop in ticket prices is nothing compared to the 31 percent savings airlines have seen on their fuel bills since the start of this year. One city having an outsized impact on fares is Dallas, where a federal law that banned most long flights from Dallas Love Field was lifted in October. Led by Southwest Airlines, the Dallas market has seen an 8.6 percent increase in seats for the 12 months ending in August, more than double the growth for the entire country. Wolfe Research analyst Hunter Keay says that two out of every five domestic flights — local market ones or connecting trips — can be affected by what happens in Dallas. For instance, if Southwest offers a cheap fare from New York to Los Angeles, connecting in Dallas, American tries to match that. That forces United to match the fare for its flights, even if they connect in Chicago.

Ford is making plans for a return to the small pickup truck market in the U.S. with a new version of the Ranger. The company is negotiating with the United Auto Workers about making the truck in Michigan, a person briefed on the matter said Wednesday. A new small SUV that may be called the Bronco also is under discussion, said the person, who asked not to be identified.

Dish goes dark Dish said Wednesday that some channels have gone dark for more than 5 million of its customers because of a fight with the channels’ owner, Sinclair Broadcasting. Dish said that 129 local stations in 79 markets are affected. Sinclair is one of the largest TV broadcasting companies in the U.S., with channels in markets that include Seattle and Tacoma.

Turkey bacon recalled Kraft Heinz Foods Co. is recalling more than 2 million pounds of turkey bacon products that may be unsafe because they could possibly spoil before the “Best When Used By” date. The US. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service said that it has received reports of illness tied to people eating the items.

Burger detente Burger King is asking McDonald’s to join forces to create a “McWhopper.” In newspaper ads Wednesday, Burger King said it wants to serve the mashup of their most famous burgers for a single day in Atlanta. Burger King is tying the publicity stunt to the promotion of Peace Day. McDonald’s CEO Steve Easterbrook said the proposal was inspiration for a good cause, then took a dig at Burger King. “Let’s acknowledge that between us there is simply a friendly business competition and certainly not the unequaled circumstances of the real pain and suffering of war,” he said.

Solyndra report An investigation by the Energy Department’s inspector general has concluded that officials of the solar company Solyndra misrepresented facts and omitted key information in their efforts to get a $535 million loan guarantee from the federal government. The company’s collapse soon after getting federal backing provided ammunition to lawmakers and critics who called ait wasteful government spending. The company’s failure likely will cost taxpayers more than $500 million. From Herald news services

Bridge: Everett police were never asked to investigate From Page A1

Gordon said. “Certainly outside of the department’s acceptable level of conduct.” The three people involved are valued employees who help others every day, Gordon said. “I seriously believe that. They made a mistake that day,” he said. “I believe we’ve handled (the investigation) appropriately from the very beginning. The message is clear that’s not a level of conduct that we will in any way condone and we’re going to move forward.”

Out of the public eye Everett firefighters already had been called once that day to help Spencer, but determined he didn’t need medical care. About an hour later, at 11:40 a.m., the second 911 call came in about him. Engine One was dispatched, with three firefighters on board: Capt. Curt Low, Andrew Denzel and Ken McMillen. They found Spencer lying on the sidewalk of the 3700 block of Broadway, not far from the local homeless shelter. They recognized him from previous contacts. Low later wrote that he had handled 911 calls about Spencer dozens of times and knew he had been hit by a car on Broadway last year. Spencer has used a wheelchair, and the sight of him passed out in his chair prompted many of those calls. He wasn’t using the wheelchair that day, however. Spencer’s address in court papers is listed as the Everett Gospel Mission. He has a lengthy history of contacts with local police, mainly for trespassing and drinking in public downtown. There’s a warrant out

for his arrest. During the July 1 incident, Spencer was described by the firefighters as drunk but alert and talking. He boarded the fire engine and firefighters fastened his seat belt. They drove northbound onto Highway 529, turning off on Spencer Island about a mile from the Marysville city limits. During the five-mile drive, Low reportedly told his crew: “If you have a problem with this, let me know.” Spencer was left in a grassy area in the shade underneath the highway, about 15 feet from the road. They helped him take off his coat. Low, an Everett firefighter for 24 years, said it was safer there and “less conspicuous,” according to the documents. Spencer reportedly told the crew the location they dropped him was fine and he was OK. By the next evening, rumors about how the call was handled reached fire department bosses, including the chief. They started an internal investigation, trying to determine whether a patient had been abandoned. “When we first learned of the incident, it was concerning to all of us,” Gordon said. “That was the reason for acting quickly.” Low was put on paid leave for about a week while department supervisors conducted interviews and collected statements. Normally, crews called for an intoxicated homeless person would conduct a basic medical evaluation and transport the person to the hospital if needed, assuming their medical assistance wasn’t turned down. The firefighters told their bosses they had wanted to

move Spencer out of the sun, away from alcohol, traffic and the public eye.

Criminal questions On July 4, Fire Marshal Rick Robinson conferred with Gordon about the incident, writing “this could constitute a serious violation of fire department policy, and therefore requires investigation.” On July 6, another battalion chief wrote his bosses and questioned whether what happened had been legal. He wanted to make sure police were notified. Everett police never were asked to investigate. Fire department leaders talked about it, and based on the information they’d gathered, didn’t think the actions could be criminal, because the firefighters “believed that the person was not a patient,” the chief told The Herald. Yet on July 7, Tim Key, the department’s division chief of emergency medical services, wrote that Low likely violated state codes governing how fire departments treat patients. In addition, Key was concerned that the crews did not properly document the encounter, calling the records “exceptionally sparse.” “Without such documentation and with no explanation as to (Low’s) intent, it is difficult to see this episode as anything other than abandonment,” Key wrote. He talked it over with Dr. Ron Brown, a longtime physician who oversees paramedic programs throughout Snohomish County. Moving patients in a fire engine, rather than an aid car or ambulance, is a discouraged practice, meant to be a last resort. Brown told Key that

It is clear the actions that were taken in that incident were beyond what we consider to be reasonable. — Fire Chief Murray Gordon

what happened was “not acceptable from a medical ethics point of view.” However, Key wrote, the incident didn’t rise to the level of reporting it to the state Department of Health for a potential investigation into the firefighters’ status as medical care providers. Instead the Everett Fire Department decided to handle it “in house.”

“A good measuring stick” Two lower-level supervisors decided on the discipline for the firefighters and Gordon concurred. The discipline, described by the chief as being the lowest reasonable level, “was appropriate,” because the desired outcome is to change behaviors, he said. The Everett Fire Department’s disciplinary practices have come under repeated scrutiny in recent years, in particular involving firefighters accused of misconduct. Last year, former division Chief Pete Vier was demoted after being accused of stalking two women, among numerous other troubles on and off the job. In those cases,

he was told to stay away from the women by avoiding Providence Regional Medical Center Everett and the city of Edmonds. He remains in jail serving time for unrelated convictions for communication with a minor for immoral purposes and promoting prostitution. In the July case involving the homeless man, Low received a written reprimand, also known as a letter in his file. “Ultimately, the officer, the captain, was responsible and that’s why his discipline was at a higher level,” Gordon said. The other two firefighters, Denzel and McMillen, received “an oral reprimand.” The talks with the firefighters were documented in their files. Denzel has 10 years with the department; McMillen nearly eight. None of the three have received any previous discipline, officials said Wednesday. “What we believe is an important element of this incident was their responsibility to speak up,” Gordon said. A letter drafted last week was sent to fire department staff Wednesday to make clear that what happened with the homeless man was unacceptable. The letter, signed by Interim Assistant Chief Bob Edgley, shows that the command staff knew the incident had the potential to attract attention. Firefighters are allowed to break with protocols when doing so protects the “safety, dignity and wellbeing of those we serve,” Edgley wrote. “Your decisions and actions should be guided by the principle of doing what is in the best interest of the patient, the public, the department and the city,” the letter said. “A

good measuring stick for these types of decisions is how they might look on the front page of the paper.” At one point, Low was asked to write a memo and include his thoughts looking back at the incident. “If given a redo, I would have relocated (Spencer) to a less remote location, yet out of harm’s way,” he wrote. In other documents, Edgley described his concerns after Low’s interview. Low had talked openly to colleagues about what happened, yet did not follow policies in documenting his interactions with a patient, Edgley wrote. The two other firefighters on the engine should have spoken up. “Again, from an outside perspective, the appearance of secrecy lends itself to additional suspicion,” Edgley wrote. “Transparency is essential to the public trust.” On Monday, the firefighters union filed a grievance. According to the union, the fire department violated policies in leveling the discipline. Lowe’s letter of reprimand should be removed from his file and he “should be made whole,” the grievance states. Union President Paul Gagnon issued a statement Wednesday. Many of the homeless people they care for struggle with addiction, he said. “We have developed personal relationships with many of these citizens to ensure their safety and the community’s safety,” he said. “We will continue to work with local law enforcement and city officials to ensure every consideration to improve public safety for every citizen is our top priority.” Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

Enough with shutdown game the economy by encouraging spending among recreational businesses in the state and throughout the nation. Proposed legislation, supported by both of the state’s senators and several representatives, would make its funding permanent. The fund’s authorization expires Sept. 30. ■■Congress extended authorization for the federal Highway Trust Fund at the end of July, but only for three months. The move kept current road and other transportation infrastructure projects going, but now must be approved before the end of October. Prior to its recess, the Senate passed a sixyear transportation plan, but only included funding enough for three years. We encourage Congress to reconsider the Grow America Act, which would outline $478 billion, six year’s worth of transportation projects, spending that would repair our neglected roads, bridges and other transportation links and is vital to the nation’s economy. ■■Its authorization having already expired earlier this summer, the federal

Export-Import Bank is basically mothballed, prevented from continuing its work of more than 80 years to promote exports by providing low-interest loans for foreign purchases of U.S.-made goods. The bank is self-supporting and actually makes a profit for the Treasury. And the need for it is even greater now, following recent events in China. With the markets and currency of the world’s second-largest economy in decline, U.S. manufacturers, particularly Boeing, are in danger of losing more business. And lost business eventually translates into lost jobs. This is not just about Boeing; we have made the point repeatedly that many small- and medium-sized businesses in Snohomish County have relied on the Export-Import Bank in the past. Looming over those issues, as important as they are, is yet another threat of government shutdown as Congress approaches a Sept. 30 deadline to pass the federal budget. The normally contentious budget debate is now further

complicated by the demand by some conservative Republicans to hold up passage of the budget unless all federal funding for Planned Parenthood is pulled. The threat is a dead-end that even Republican leadership in the House and Senate recognizes. Even if opponents in House and Senate ended all funding for the women’s health provider, President Obama has promised to veto any bill with those cuts. Recall that none of the federal funding that currently goes to Planned Parenthood provides abortion services; that funding is reserved for the organization’s other work in providing contraception, family planning and other health care services for women. Opponents can call hearings if they wish to investigate allegations against Planned Parenthood. Ending its funding would deprive low-income women of needed health care, would likely result in an increase in abortions, pushes us toward a government shutdown and diverts attention from the issues noted above.

government unions which cost taxpayers big dollars and ushering in right-to-work laws. (A civil service structure would be a nice change for the better.) Increased taxes should be the last resort, not the first and/or easiest way to address state needs. Rather than raise taxes, how about prioritizing spending? How many fires could the $9 billion given to Boeing extinguish?

steelhead critical habitat issues. Sunset is a Washington state protected scenic river. It is also a Northwest Power and Conservation Council protected river — where hydropower is prohibited. To move forward, SnoCo PUD would have to “take” two scenic waterfalls from the public by draining the water flow in direct conflict with state law. SnoCo PUD has not yet filed its license application so there is time to reconsider, but if they persist, they face at least another decade of expensive licensing proceedings, mass public, departmental and tribal opposition — and complete uncertainty of the outcome — while better solar options go wanting for funding and attention. Collar appears to be very highly qualified to unravel this mess. We need his best work to stop the Sunset Falls debacle.

tobacco industry have nothing to do with global warming. Let me present some verifiable facts. 1) The UN IPCC charter limited the committee to identifying only human causes of warming. 2) CO2 makes up an insignificant 0.04 percent of the earth’s greenhouse gases. 3) Water vapor is a much greater part of the earth’s atmosphere. 4) CO2 is required for life; it is not a pollutant. 5) Solar activity has been shown to be the most significant determinant of climate change. 6) Average earth temperature was much warmer during the medieval age, without any fossil fuels being burned. 7) We have been coming out of a little “ice age” over the last few hundred years, and should expect some warming. 8) More than 31,000 people (9,000 with doctorates, including myself) have signed a petition that “there is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of . . . carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gases is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the earth’s atmosphere and disruption of the earth’s climate.” Yes the climate has been, still is, and will always be, changing. Let’s not confuse the climate with the weather.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ■■MUKILTEO PARK

Wrong to put price on visit Too bad that after 58 years going to that beach for the same reasons as David Alcorta, plus many more memories, now they want me to pay. (Letter, “Parking meters ruin beloved spot.”) That waterfront from Mukilteo to Snohomish River has been my stomping grounds since childhood. That beach was the very first saltwater beach I ever saw after moving from Kansas in 1957. I remember all that was mentioned about the beloved spot. But now there’s nowhere to do those things without paying somebody something. Come on, Mukilteo, won’t you be our neighbor, let me park there too. I won’t litter. Gene Martin Everett

■■STATE REVENUE

Tax hikes must be last resort Regarding the Sunday letter, “An example of needed taxes”: I am sorry about the wildfire losses that our state is currently suffering, but life is not risk free, and no amount of increased taxes can thwart acts of nature, such as lightning strikes, windstorms, landslides, etc. Tim Eyman’s initiative is constructed to give people an opportunity to vote on tax and fee increases by allowing them to vote on a constitutional amendment that requires a twothirds super majority of both houses of the Legislature to raise taxes. (Recall that this voter or super majority option has been voted in by large majorities at least three times and then nullified by legal chicanery.) Putting proposed tax increases on the ballot will enable voter determination of the kind and amount of taxes needed for ongoing government operations. This would be democracy at work. This initiative should slow down the tax, borrow and spend mentality that appears to grip our state. Not everyone can have everything at someone else’s expense. Perhaps property owners that live in wildfire areas should anticipate possible fire loss and purchase homeowner’s insurance. State costs could easily be decreased by limiting or doing away with public employee

■■SUNSET FALLS

Collar qualified to undo debacle Thank you for the interesting letter to the editor regarding the Sunset Falls hydro project being contemplated by Snohomish County PUD. (“New manager must stop project.”) The author covered a lot of ground, requesting that new CEO Craig Collar reconsider the wisdom of the proposed project against global warming effects on stream flows, endangered species impacts, and the rapidly increasing cost of new hydro compared to cheaper solar energy based alternatives. The dual fatal flaws of the Sunset Falls project for Snohomish County PUD are “economic” and “environmental.” The federal licensing process is immensely expensive, up to 25 percent or 30 percent of total project cost, even for “easy” projects with few opponents and no major environmental concerns, which is the opposite of Sunset Falls. Sunset Falls has Endangered Species Act-threatened salmon, bull trout and

There has been no significant warming for the last 18 years and the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change models have been shown to be way off the mark.

IN OUR VIEW | Congress

About the time kids start returning to school following the Labor Day holiday Sept. 7, the nation’s senators and representatives will return to Washington, D.C., as Congress reconvenes after a recess of more than a month. It has a significant list of items to accomplish, many directly affecting Washington state residents. And most have to be addressed before the end of October or even more immediately. Barring again extending deadlines with a continuing resolution — which comes from the Latin for “kicking the can down the road” — Congress must pass legislation on the following: ■■The Water and Land Conservation Fund provides grants and other funding to acquire land for parks and preserves. The fund is supported exclusively by royalties from offshore oil-drilling leases, and in its 50-year history has brought about $673 million into Washington to various local, state and national parks and other public lands. That investment promotes

Clinton should beg Biden to run against her

oe Biden, in the (still unlikely) event he runs for president, probably won’t beat Hillary Clinton. He’s been a lackluster presidential candidate in the past, and there’s no clear path for him to win the Democratic nomination this time. He should do it anyway. The rationale — floated to me by a Biden lieutenant — is that the vice president could serve as a stalking horse. His entry would shake up the race DANA MILBANK and thereby lower the barriers for other, potentially better-positioned, candidates to join the fray. This could turn the Democratic contest into a free-wheeling affair, and for the party there would be only upside: Either the more fragmented Democratic field would produce a better candidate than Clinton, or, more likely, it would sharpen Clinton on her way to the nomination. The term stalking horse dates back some 500 years, to a time when hunters hid behind equines to sneak up on their prey. In politics, the term refers to a candidate who diverts attention from another and thus benefits a third. To switch metaphors, Biden jumping into the race could convince other aspirants that the water’s fine. A Biden-scrambled race for the nomination could make a run more attractive to a dozen or more Democrats, most of whom have said they’re not running and some of whom have already endorsed Clinton. All are unlikely. But a Biden run should, at minimum, alter their calculations. Previous nominees Al Gore or John Kerry could jump in, validating Mo Udall’s theory that presidential ambition can only be cured by embalming fluid. Mike Bloomberg could rejoin the party and put his billions to work in a shortened primary season. Populists such as Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts or, failing that, Sen. Sherrod Brown of Ohio or Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York could reconsider. Young candidates such as Housing and Urban Development Secretary Julian Castro or Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey could bring racial and ethnic diversity to the race, as could former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick. Those excited about Clinton’s history-making potential could get behind Sens. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota or Kirsten Gillibrand of New York. Among governors, there’s John Hickenlooper of Colorado and New York’s Andrew Cuomo, a pair of former Virginia governors, Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner, and outspoken former Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer. It’s late in the cycle for new entrants, but not too late: A CBS News analysis finds that of the nearly 770 top Obama fundraisers from 2012, as few as 51 have committed to bundling big money for Clinton. And new candidates would be arriving just in time for the debate season, beginning Oct. 13 in Nevada and followed by others in the fall and winter. There’s also eagerness for alternatives among the Democratic faithful, demonstrated by the large crowds and enthusiasm for Bernie Sanders, even though he’s a professorial socialist who is about to turn 74. Democrats are reasonably content with Clinton: In the latest Washington Post/ ABC News poll, 72 percent of Democraticleaning voters said they were satisfied with their choice of candidates, and 24 percent very satisfied. But they could be more so: At this time in 2007, 83 percent of Democratic-leaning voters were satisfied, and 33 percent very satisfied. Satisfaction could diminish as Clinton’s email-server troubles continue. She’s scheduled to testify Oct. 22 before the House’s Benghazi committee, which has generated much of the email-server controversy. The State Department is expected to continue dribbling out Clinton’s old emails the rest of this year as they are cleared for public consumption. And many of her emails are facing reviews to see whether they contained classified information. Clinton originally said that she did not use her private email account to exchange classified information, but she has since retreated to saying that none of her emails had been marked as classified. Even if she did nothing illegal, the potential for more damage to Clinton remains high. But there is one thing that can shift attention from the email saga, inject energy into the Democratic side of the presidential race and strengthen Clinton or the eventual nominee: A stalking horse, of course. Dana Milbank is a Washington Post columnist.

Fire crews battle ‘brutal’ smoke, wind By Nicholas K. Geranios Associated Press

SPOKANE — Smoke from big wildfires burning east of the Cascade Range hurt air quality Wednesday and hampered efforts by crews battling the flames in Washington state. Smoky conditions grounded helicopters and airplanes that had been fighting the fires, and air quality was rated as unhealthy for some people in Spokane County, which has nearly 500,000 residents. Crews battling a 262-square mile blaze near the town of Republic were also battling smoke as well as flames, fire spokesman Donnie Davis said. “Everybody up here is rubbing their eyes,” Davis said. “It’s brutal.” Davis said the cause of the fire remained under investigation. A wildfire in Okanogan — the largest blaze ever recorded in the state — grew to nearly 438 square miles and heavy smoke also grounded air resources, fire spokesman Rick Isaacson said. “We’re still socked in,” Isaacson said. “There’s maybe one mile of visibility.” So far, officials have counted 40 homes and 40 outbuildings destroyed by the blaze, Okanogan County Sheriff Frank Rogers said. The fire is about 17 percent contained by more than 1,300 firefighters. Rogers said a forecast calling for highs in the 70s and rain in the next few days was good news. “It is looking better for us,” he said. The U.S. is in the middle of a severe fire season with some 11,600 square miles scorched so far. “You can imagine how stretched thin everybody is,” said Dan Dallas, deputy incident commander of the Okanogan fire. “We’re all working without the resources that in a normal year — which I don’t think there is such a thing anymore — that we might have.” So many fires are burning in Washington state that officials summoned help from fire managers in Australia and New Zealand. They also got 200 U.S. troops from a base in Tacoma in the first such use of active-duty soldiers in nine years. The Oregon Military Department said soldiers also were ready to help battle a wildfire that has destroyed more than three dozen homes near John Day, about 150 miles east of Portland.

TED S. WARREN / ASSOCIATED PRESS

A sign warns of heavy smoke on Highway 155 near Omak on Wednesday. A red flag warning was in effect Thursday for high temperatures, low humidity and winds gusting to 25 mph, but rain is in the forecast for Saturday.

Fires also were burning in California, Montana and Idaho. Schools reopened in a Southern California mountain community where crews were battling a small fire burning through timber

near a popular ski resort. Firefighters have held the blaze in the San Bernardino Mountains to 100 acres. Residents in Riggins and along Highway 95 in west-central Idaho

have been told to be ready to evacuate. Fire managers said the fire grew to 29 square miles with extreme fire behavior that included sustained runs through tree crowns.

A wildfire that started in the Benchmark area about 30 miles west of Augusta, Montana, led to the evacuation of recreational cabins in the Lewis and Clark National Forest.

WILDFIRES BRIEFLY

Evacuations in Ferry County REPUBLIC — Firefighters battling a 262-square mile wildfire near the town of Republic plan to ignite a back burn a couple of miles west of the Ferry County town to slow the advance of the flames. As a result, they have ordered mandatory evacuations Wednesday of some rural areas west of the town in the vicinity of the back burn. The Ferry County Sheriff’s Office said only a few rural homes and some campsites are covered by the evacuation notice. Fire spokesman Donnie Davis

said the cause of the fire remains under investigation, and that it is burning in timber and grassland between Republic and Nespelem. Davis said air quality is poor because of an inversion in the area.

CWU to offer tuition waivers for students affected by fires Central Washington University is lowering the cost of attendance for students affected by wildfires in north central Washington by offering tuition waivers. The Seattle Times reported that about 300 students have been given $1,000 waivers to

lower their tuition burden. President James Guadino said in a news release that the waivers are to help students cope with the effects of the wildfires. The school in Ellensburg is also allowing liberal use of personal leave for university employees who want to help fight the massive fires. The fall quarter starts Sept. 23.

Colleges get grant to map wildfire threats Researchers at the University of Idaho and Washington State University will be working to map where severe wildfires are likely to occur in the Northwest thanks to a $2.8 million

grant from the National Science Foundation. The Spokesman-Review reported that the four-year grant will help researchers model where fires will burn the hottest and cause the most destruction in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. While home destruction is a major concern, a UI professor said the extreme heat of some fires can also reduce soil’s ability to absorb water, which can lead to flooding and mudslides. Wildfires have scorched more than 1 million acres in the Northwest this year and researchers say climate change is expected to increase the intensity and frequency of wildfires.

College students dive in to marine life at Rosario Beach By Kimberly Cauvel Skagit Valley Herald

ANACORTES — An exciting summer recently came to a close for 59 college students studying marine biology at a beach-side campus south of here. The Rosario Beach Marine Laboratory, run by Walla Walla University since 1954, is open to undergraduate, graduate and research students for summer quarter courses focused on biology. “Students aren’t going to have the opportunity necessarily to take courses like this back on the main campus, and the teachers don’t have the opportunity to teach it, so they’re always really excited,” lab director Jim Nestler said. Students and faculty come from all over the country to study at the lab, which offers hands-on research experience, time on the water in boats or under the water equipped with diving gear. This year, students were exposed to general biology, insects and fossils. They delved into research questions such “How will ocean acidification affect octopuses?” and “How do sea cucumbers hibernate each fall?” Taylor Grace, an undergraduate from Maine Maritime Academy, is doing his senior research project on octopuses.

His ultimate goal is to work at an aquarium doing demonstrations from inside the tanks. His backup plans are commercial diving, underwater welding and teaching. Grace’s interest in sea creatures was sparked when he was about 6 years old. Growing up in a military family that moved around a lot, he vividly remembers a trip to the Baltimore Aquarium that set him on the path to studying marine life. “It just fascinates me that something so small has so much intelligence in it, and it doesn’t even have any bones,” Grace said while examining an octopus called Sticky, one of dozens at the lab this summer. Grace says octopuses are his favorite animal and he recently got his first tattoo — a colorful octopus on his left arm. He is not alone in his enthusiasm for marine life. “Marine organisms are so interesting,” Nestler said. “Octopus change colors (when startled), sea cucumbers lose their organs to hibernate and then grow them back, and sea stars can die off from a mystery disease and make a comeback.” During a recent dive with students, Nestler discovered an intact, adult purple sea star. Such sightings were rare for a while following an outbreak of the sea star wasting disease. “We’re just excited to see them

Walla Walla University student Monica Culler peers into a giant tank at the Rosario Beach Marine Laboratory near Anacortes on Aug. 5 to see if the octopuses are eating the meal she just fed them.

coming back,” he said. For Erica Franklin, who is from Colorado, her studies on the beach this summer centered on an eelgrass research project, which meant she got to dive in cold water for the first time. She was also on a four-student team that tested crabs in a class on the

behavior of marine organisms. Washington State University zoology student Kaitlyn Jacobs was part of a research team looking at how acidity in the water, known as pH, affects the metabolism of octopuses. Nestler said the research is important in understanding the

effects of ocean acidification. “We know there is an increase in (carbon dioxide) in the atmosphere, and we know that’s changing the pH of the ocean,” he said. “Even a small change in pH could have significant effects, but we don’t know what exactly all those effects will be.”

HOROSCOPE Happy Birthday: Keep an open mind, but donâ€™t believe everything you hear. You will come across all sorts of new possibilities, but many of them will be lacking substance. It will be vital for you to remain cautious and only pursue the deals that you know are legitimate and can bring you the results you need to advance. Your numbers are 1, 6, 13, 21, 29, 33, 48. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Keep your emotions in check and offer a little charm and flirtation. Itâ€™s how you approach the people you deal with that will make the difference. Be sure you do your homework and donâ€™t overlook minor details. Romance conquers all. â˜…â˜…â˜…â˜… TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Pick up information, documentation, skills or whatever else it takes to advance your career.

CITY OF EDMONDS Notice of AMENDED Application File No. PLN20150001 NAME OF APPLICANT: Select Homes, Inc. DATE OF PUBLIC NOTICE: August 27, 2015 PROJECT LOCATION: 23920 - 104th Avenue West, Edmonds WA Tax Parcel Number 27033600303000 AMENDED PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A Notice of Application was previously issued for this project on February 19, 2015. Since the previous Notice of Application was published, the overall extent and layout of the project has changed. The initial application was for a four-lot subdivision with access being taken from the City property on the south side of the development. According to City of Edmond’s Resolution No. 1005, use of this property is limited and the proposed development could not use this property for access. The revised application is for a four-lot short subdivision with access being provided via a 30-foot access easement along the north side of the development. In order to maintain a four-lot shor t subdivision, a lot line adjustment with NW Preferred Funeral is being processed concurrently (PLN20150040). The lot line adjustment will transfer 41 feet of the parcel directly to the west of the subject proper ty (approximately 5,431 square feet) thus providing enough area in the subject proper ty for a four-lot shor t subdivision. The site is zoned RS-8 (Single-Family Residential; minimum lot size of 8,000 square feet). REQUESTED PERMITS: Short Subdivision OTHER REQUIRED PERMITS: Lot Line Adjustment . PUBLIC COMMENTS DUE: September 10, 2015 Any person has the right to comment on this application during the public comment period, receive notice and participate in any hearings, and request a copy of the decision on the application. The City may accept public comments at any time prior to the closing of the record of an open record predecision hearing, if any, or, if no open record predecision hearing is provided, prior to the decision on the project permit. Only parties of record as defined in ECDC 20.07.003 have standing to initiate an administrative appeal. Information on this development application can be viewed or obtained at the City of Edmonds Planning Division between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday or online through the city’s website at www.edmondswa.gov through Online Permits link.

TONIGHT’S GAME

Bailey calls chance to be Seahawks’ starting strong safety a ‘dream come true’

Salem-Keizer at Everett, 7:05 p.m. Radio: KRKO (1380 AM)

By Gregg Bell

Sox rally to force extras, but lose 3-2

The News Tribune

ENTON — It’s time to consider the previously uncomfortable, if not unfathomable: the Seattle Seahawks moving on past Kam Chancellor. Wednesday was the 27th day of the team leader’s preseason holdout. It’s now 21⁄2 weeks before the real season begins. On the field the team has been moving on without him for weeks, out of necessity. First, DeShawn Shead had Chancellor’s strong-safety job. Shead, who also plays cornerback and special teams, even got daily advice from Chancellor, who’s been watching INSIDE daily practice ✓ Seahawks QB film while entrenched in Wilson claims his stance he ‘Recovery Water’ wants more helped prevent than the $4.55 a concussion, C5 million due to him this year. For last week’s exhibition game at Kansas City, this week’s practices and Saturday’s third and relatively most “important” preseason game at San Diego, Dion Bailey is The Man in Place of Kam. Bailey’s speed to stay with downfield receivers and his physicality against the run have rocketed him to the most unlikely co-starring role in this unexpected version of Seattle’s “Legion of Boom” secondary. And he realizes how golden an opportunity this is, how just plain real this is getting to be. The guys who start the third preseason game almost always begin the regular season as starters; firstteamers barely play in the final exhibition that comes five days later. “I’m in a position I never expected to be in at this point in my career,” Bailey said. No wonder. This time last year, he was an undrafted free agent out of USC nursing an ankle injury on his way onto Seattle’s practice squad for the 2014 season. Yes, the 23-year-old has gone from running other team’s plays to prepare Seahawks starters seven months ago to being one for the final rehearsal before the See SEAHAWKS, Page C5

By Jesse Geleynse Herald Writer

EVERETT — The Everett AquaSox waited all night for a clutch hit. When it finally came in the bottom of the ninth, it only served to prolong the disappointment. Salem-Keizer’s Steven Duggar delivered an RBI single through a drawn-in infield to score Ronnie Jebavy in the top of the 10th inning with what proved to be the winning run as the Volcanoes defeated the AquaSox 3-2 before 1,753 fans Wednesday at Everett Memorial Stadium. Duggar’s heroics overshadowed an exciting bottom of the ninth for AquaSox fans in what was largely a lackluster performance at the plate by Everett. Trailing 2-0, Everett’s Alex Jackson walked to lead off the ninth. Luis Liberato singled and the two were sacrificed to second and third, respectively by pinchhitter Arturo Nieto. After Yojhan Quevedo grounded out, pinchhitter Corey Simpson delivered a two-run single to left to tie the game. See AQUASOX, Page C4

No QB decision for Huskies yet, but Tips check in, set to coach says more than one could play begin camp Thursday By Jesse Geleynse

Anticipation builds as opener nears with Lindquist, Carta-Samuels and Browning all still in the mix to start. By Christian Caple The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Anticipation continues to build as Washington Huskies coach Chris Petersen and staff try to decide which player to start at quarterback in their Sept. 4 opener at Boise State. But that decision won’t necessarily end the competition. Fourth-year junior Jeff Lindquist, redshirt junior K.J. Carta-Samuels and true freshman Jake Browning have shared repetitions throughout spring and preseason practices, and they’ve apparently competed evenly enough that a resolution has not yet been reached. And Petersen warns that even naming a starter might not settle things at that position. “I would love to have that question not asked, but we’re not there yet. We’re getting closer,”

Petersen said. “I don’t know if it’s going to be one of those things — ‘hey, this is the guy, away we go, it’s all settled forever.’ We obviously are going to have a starting quarterback Game 1, but we’re not there. We’re getting closer.

EVERETT — Teenage hockey players milled about the Xfinity Arena foyer Wednesday, queuing up to register for Everett Silvertips camp, have their measurements taken, and don a jersey for official individual headshots. Wednesday was check-in and orientation for the returning veterans and other listed players for head coach Kevin Constantine’s team. Free-agent players will arrive Thursday as the defending WHL U.S. Division champion Silvertips open camp with four practice sessions at Xfinity Arena. The sessions, which are scheduled to run for 75 minutes, begin at 11 a.m. and are open to the public. “Initially they look like they’re in good shape and ready to get going,” said Everett general manager Garry Davidson. “We’re looking forward to seeing them on the ice.” Approximately 80 players will be in camp this weekend before

Olimpia beats Sounders 1-0 in CONCACAF play Associated Press TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — Alberth Elis scored in the 60th minute to help Olimpia beat the Seattle Sounders 1-0 on Wednesday night in CONCACAF Champions League play. Olimpia improved to 1-1-0 and Seattle dropped to 1-1-1 in Group F. Donis Escober made one save for the shutout. Last week in Seattle, the Sounders rallied to beat Olimpia 2-1 on Erik Friberg’s goal in the 90th minute and Brad Evans’ penalty kick in the final seconds of stoppage time. Seattle will complete play in the three-team group at Major League Soccer rival Vancouver (0-1-0) on Sept. 23. Olimpia will finish with two games against Vancouver — in Canada on Sept. 16 and in Honduras on Oct. 22.

CONMEBOL, FIFA to audit Bolivia ASUNCION, Paraguay — CONMEBOL and FIFA will audit the finances of the Bolivian Football Federation, whose leader was jailed for alleged corruption, the president of South America’s soccer confederation Juan Angel Napout said. In July, Bolivia’s Football Federation head Carlos Chavez was jailed at Bolivia’s notorious Palmasola Prison in the eastern city of Santa Cruz on charges he diverted funds from a charity match.

ink salmon numbers seen in recent saltwater creel samples at the Port of Everett ramp could well be “the highest fish counts per person there, ever,” said John Martinis of John’s Sporting Goods in Everett. Martinis was quoting retired state Fish and Wildlife Department biologist Curt Kraemer on Tuesday. Kraemer’s wife Sue is involved in local catch sampling for WDFW. And the pinks just keep coming. “The average catch Monday at the Everett ramp was about eight salmon per boat, a mix of pinks and a few coho,” said Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood. “That’s still a strong fishery, and I look for it to hold up through about September 10.” The humpies can be found in all the usual spots — in front of the Mukilteo lighthouse, down through humpy hollow to the shipwreck, north of Edmonds, over on Possession Bar, and most places in between. The beaches on the west side of Whidbey Island are also a good bet now, Chamberlain said, for pinks and some coho. Fish both sides of a high slack, tossing Buzz Bombs or Rotators in pink for humpies, or chartreuse/ green if you’re chasing coho. Some fishermen dress up the jigs with a small hoochie, Chamberlain said. The Snohomish River could also be a prime target soon, according to Martinis. He said there have been some big days on the river recently, but he looks for more consistent action on the way. “I think by this weekend it could break loose,” he said. The entire Snohomish is open (an incoming tide is best), and many bank anglers like the pumphouse area, a half-mile or so above the park at Lowell. There are other fishing spots on up the river road at several turnouts, but the Snohomish tends to be grabby, so be sure to take plenty of gear.

PICK OF THE WEEK | Lake Washington Perch

Outdoor calendar

The big metro lake south of us offers one of the best yellow perch fisheries in the state, and our very warm summer should keep the fish shallow and accessible throughout the fall. This is prime time for a “perch pull” in areas such as Juanita Bay, the east side of Mercer Island, Yarrow Point, Hunt’s Point, the east end of the Evergreen Point bridge, and the shoreline from Sand Point south to Union Bay. Access for all of those is the launch at Magnuson Park on Sand Point Way. Use a light spinning rod with 6-pound line and a simple dropper rig — swivel, one foot of leader

■ The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is offering a 12-week Boating Skills and Seamanship Class on Sept. 15 in the auxiliary classroom at Chuck Olson Chevrolet in Shoreline. The class meets from 7-9 p.m. on Tuesdays. The class is for both novice and experienced boaters and meets the requirements for a Washington State Boaters Card. The class fee is $55 or $75 for two people sharing a book. For more information, send an e-mail to boatclasses@hotmail.com or call Mike Lowe at 425-7439295. An eight-hour seminar version of the class is available the first Saturday of each month at Rose Hill Community Center in Mukilteo. The class fee is $25. For more information, contact Angela Riffner at 360-435-4833.

The popular lure choice is a 21⁄2-inch pink Buzz Bomb or one of the several imitators. “There’s a Canadian lure they call a ‘Blizzard,’ which fishes like a Buzz Bomb but costs about half as much,” Martinis said. “Another good choice would be a quarterounce Danielson jig with a pink skirt. They catch a lot of fish and they’re cheap.” Boaters on the river drift and cast, or anchor above a hole, and fish the same gear as bank anglers. Trolling is a way to cover a lot of water, Martinis said, using a half-ounce sinker, 6 feet of leader and a number 1 pink/ white Dick Nite spoon. Sue Kraemer reminds anglers to take care of their catch. Humpies are fragile and should be bled and/or gutted right away and put on ice. If you’ve had your fish in a plastic sack, lying in the sun all morning, what you end up with is garbage, and not even smoking will turn garbage into a palatable product. Rivers which have been entirely or partially closed to fishing because of drought conditions, or changed to “hoot owl” fishing hours, include: The Skykomish and both forks; the Raging River; the Wallace; the Stillaguamish and both forks; the South Fork Nooksack; the Sauk and both forks; the Suiattle; and the Samish. For details check the fishing hotline at 360-902-2500, or the webpage https://fortress. wa.gov/dfw/erules/efishrules/ freshwater_select.h.

Hunting access Hunters will have to do some homework before heading out this fall, and consider alternate spots for their traditional hunts because of drought and fire-related access

down to a small pyramid sinker, and a small, snelled bait hook with a worm, also off the swivel. Cut banner-shaped strips from your first fish for even more productive baits. Cast out, let it sink, and retrieve slowly just off bottom. That setup also can be tied with two hooks, a foot apart. Jigs in white or yellow also work well for perch, tipped with a piece of worm, or troll a wedding ring spinner and worm to find a school, then switch to a jig or the dropper rig. Start in 15 or 20 feet of water this time of year, going deeper as water temperatures cool. — Wayne Kruse

restrictions. “For most hunters, these conditions may simply mean they can’t have a traditional campfire,” said WDFW game division manager Mick Cope. “But with several wildfires currently burning and extremely dry conditions across the state, some hunters may need to find different routes into traditional hunting areas or choose different places altogether.” As of early August, Cope said WDFW was not considering hunting regulation changes, and that units for which hunters had drawn special permits were accessible, but with fire restrictions in place. The WDFW and other public land management agencies have posted fire and access restrictions on their websites. For updated information on wildfires, including local travel and access restrictions, go to http:// inciweb.nwcg.gov/state/49/#. For information on national forest land, go to http://www.fs.usda.gov. For info on any of WDFW’s 33 wildlife areas, go to http://wdfw.wa.gov/ lands/wildlife_areas/. Private landowners who allow hunter access, such as timber companies, have also posted access and fire-related restrictions on their websites.

Baker Lake sockeye As of last week, the Baker Lake sockeye fishery was still putting out salmon, with a four-fish bag limit, but with a Sept. 7 closure scheduled. Kevin John at Holiday Sports in Burlington said most fish are being taken at depths of 50 to 70 feet, and because the lake is so cold at that level, even a sockeye with a little color is still in great shape for the grill. Participation has dropped off and crowding is no longer a problem at launch ramps, John said, and with little pressure on the fish, catches have been averaging three or four sockeye per angler. Try a purple haze dodger and UV pink/white hoochie.

Cougars return starters at every position on O-line By Jacob Thorpe The Spokesman-Review

PULLMAN — Cole Madison spent the 2014 season for Washington State figuring out how to use his talent. It’s rare for a redshirt freshman to start on the offensive line, where the quarterback’s five bodyguards must constantly take on the biggest, meanest players on their opponent’s roster, who are also fresher thanks to more liberal substitution patterns. It was trial by fire, with the promise that the experience of fighting against older, savvier players would pay off over the next three years. Madison is still the youngster on an offensive line that has the potential to be the best at WSU in years, so the Cougars would like the right tackle to blossom now, please. “He’s always been able from an athletic standpoint to get himself out of bad situations,” said offensive line coach Clay McGuire. “That’s great, but he’s got to take the next step as far as being a fundamentally sound player, and he works hard at it.” The Cougars have the potential to protect their quarterback, and improve the run game, thanks to returning starters at every position. Those five players have combined to start 87 games in their careers and

Washington State right tackle Cole Madison is one of five returning starters on the Cougars’ offensive line.

left tackle Joe Dahl and left guard Gunnar Eklund are both three-year starters. Madison’s athleticism portends success and Dahl is considered a probable NFL and AllConference player, so the Cougars should hold up well on the edges. Between them, from left to right, are Eklund, Riley Sorenson; who at 6-foot-4, 319 pounds is larger than any center in the NFC West, and right guard Eduardo Middleton, who some coaches and teammates consider the group’s most improved player. It’s a close-knit group — the players know each other, and each other’s positions. Dahl and Eklund swapped positions at the

end of the 2013 season and Middleton not only starts at right guard, he’s also Sorenson’s backup at center. “They’ve really come together, that’s the thing we’ve been trying to do since we got here is create continuity amongst the group,” McGuire said. “It’s kind of taken until now to get that done.” The offensive linemen speak glowingly of WSU’s new dispensation for running the football, saying that it gets them engaged by allowing them to take the fight to the defenders. “That’s what we stressed the most in the offseason,” Madison said. “Just get nasty and run blocking.” And because the Cougars have kept the same core group together, two generations of backups have grown up behind the starters. Promising underclassmen like center Carlos Freeman and Andre Dillard have been able to incubate and put on muscle without preparing for games and give WSU a deep bench from which to draw. Next year, those players will perform the same task for WSU’s strong class of true freshmen on the line, led by mammoth Cedric Bigge-Duren, a 6-foot-6, 308-pound tackle. “(The starters have) done a good job embracing the new guys,” Mike Leach said. “And I think that’s always a thing in development.”

Kevin John recommends Indian village, Secret Harbor, Eagle Bluff, Strawberry and Reef Point, and that Eagle Bluff put out a 27-pounder a week ago.

Buoy 10 Chinook and coho catches have been excellent lately on the bottom end of the Columbia, according to WDFW biologist Joe Hymer in Vancouver. The chinook harvest is already the 6th highest since at least 1982 and still going strong, but now under fin-clipped chinook only regs through Sept. 7. Anglers at Buoy 10 over the weekend averaged 1.9 fall chinook and 0.36 coho per boat.

Hanford Reach State biologist Paul Hoffarth said fall chinook action on the Hanford Reach above the Tri-Cities is off to a slow start, which is typical for the fishery. From Aug. 17-23, staff checked 103 anglers on the Reach with seven chinook. If the king fishing is slow, there’s some pretty good action available for other species on Hanford Reach. While interviewing salmon anglers, state personnel also tallied 35 anglers with 125 bass, and six anglers with 16 walleye.

eligible for WHL play this season, will get a chance to see how they match up with older players. “They’re coming in here to see what we’re all about, and we’re trying to see where they are at too,” Davidson said. “The following season they’re actually eligible to play here, so that kind of changes the approach.” Among the key returnees Wednesday were 18-year-old defenseman Noah Juulsen, 20-year-old winger Carson Stadnyk and 17-year-old goaltender Carter Hart. Juulsen, a native of Abbotsford, B.C., was the No. 26 selection in last June’s NHL draft by the Montreal Canadiens, and participated in Montreal’s development camp in July. Stadnyk, a Saskatoon native who is Everett’s leading returning scorer, attended development camp with the St. Louis Blues. Hart, of Sherwood Park, Alberta, emerged as the starting goaltender last season as a 16-year-old. Other returning players who attended development camps this summer include 18-year-old defenseman Kevin Davis (Edmonton), 19-year-old defenseman Tristen Pfeifer (Arizona) and 20-year-old goalkeeper Austin Lotz (Buffalo). The players are divided into four teams which participate in a round-robin tournament against one another Friday and Saturday. Play begins at 8 a.m. both days and culminates with the third-place game at 3 p.m. Saturday followed by the gold medal game at 4:45. The first week concludes with the annual Green and Grey Game at 3 p.m. Sunday at Xfinity Arena. An addition to this year’s camp includes a Rookie Game scheduled for 8 a.m. Sunday. The contest will feature a number of 15- and 16-year-old players to give the Silvertips brass an additional opportunity to observe potential future players. “(We want to) see how they stack up against their peers because in their first few days they’re playing against much older players,” Davidson said. “We’re going to try it this year and see if it gives us any extra insight into where they’re at.” Follow Silvertips writer Jesse Geleynse on Twitter @jessegeleynse

or three guys could play,” while also acknowledging that the starter needs to know that he can make a mistake or two without looking over his shoulder. He did make it clear that nobody prefers a multiplequarterback system. But it sounds as if that’s still an option. “I think everybody wants to have one guy that’s the guy,” Petersen said. “Are we there? We’re not there. We might be in a few days, and we might be in a couple of

months. And again, it’s not something I want because I know it’s going to be such a hot topic with you guys, like ‘what about the quarterback? What about the quarterback?’ But it is what it is. We’ve got to take it dayby-day and week-by-week.” Another important consideration is that Browning is a true freshman, meaning that if he doesn’t win the starting job, it might be best to not play him at all and preserve his redshirt. In that scenario, it seems

more likely than not that Lindquist and Carta-Samuels would each see the field early in the season. There’s some thought, too, that Petersen might not want to play Browning behind such an inexperienced offensive line. “All of that is factored in,” Petersen said. “All of it is. But we’re just trying to say, at that position, what gives the best chance at this time?” At this time, nobody seems to know.

That snapped an 0-for-6 showing with runners in scoring position and sent the game into extra innings. But it was all for naught as Jebavy doubled with one out in the 10th, stole third and scored on Duggar’s single. The division-leading AquaSox fell to 16-12 in second-half play and 38-28 overall. Salem-Keizer improved to 14-14 and 34-32. The Volcanoes never trailed in the game. Back-to-back doubles gave Salem-Keizer the 1-0 lead in the top of the third inning. Richard Amion doubled off the wall in center field, and Shilo McCall’s double off the fence in right chased home Amion for the lead. Chris Shaw’s long ninth-inning home run into the screen in rightcenter pushed the Volcanoes’ lead to 2-0 before the AquaSox struck in the bottom of the frame. Everett stranded eight baserunners and its offensive prospects were hindered significantly by Salem-Keizer’s defense, which turned two double plays. The AquaSox squandered another key chance in the bottom of the eighth. Drew Jackson walked and Braden Bishop was hit by a pitch for the leagueleading 12th time. But Volcanoes reliever Cory Taylor fanned Erick Mejia and induced a flyout from Logan Taylor to end the threat.

Texas pitchers go wild in 12-4 loss to Blue Jays Associated Press ARLINGTON, Texas — Colby Lewis walked four batters and threw two wild pitches in five innings of a failed attempt to set a career high in wins. Turns out the Texas pitching staff was just getting started. The Rangers walked a seasonhigh 11, and Edwin Encarnacion hit a grand slam that helped lift David Price to a win on his 30th birthday in Toronto’s 12-4 victory against Texas on Wednesday night. Encarnacion extended his hitting streak to 21 games when the right-handed slugger pulled a pitch into the Toronto bullpen in left-center for his 26th homer.

Marte sets the tone

Rookie leadoff hitter helps M’s beat A’s 8-2 By John McGrath The News Tribune

SEATTLE — As the Seattle Mariners approach the home stretch of an unsatisfying season, it appears they may have an answer to a longtime quandary that contributed to their 2015 struggles. They’ve identified a leadoff man capable of generating topof-the-order electricity. Until three weeks ago, the role had been divvied between Austin Jackson, Dustin Ackley, James Jones, Brad Miller, Logan Morrison, Justin Ruggiano, Seth Smith, Chris Taylor and Rickie Weeks. None had the combination of speed and bat-contact dexterity the job requires. Enter rookie Ketel Marte, whose leadoff single in the bottom of the first inning Wednesday enabled the Mariners to bat around for the first time in 2015, scoring four runs in an 8-2 victory over the Oakland A’s. Ace starter Felix Hernandez pitched brilliantly over eight innings, improving his record to 15-8 after throwing consecutive clunkers. But it was Marte who set the tone for Hernandez’ bounce-back effort. Trailing 1-0 after a first-pitch home run to Billy Burns, Marte lined a single down the left-field line. One out later, he scored on Nelson Cruz’ single to center.

The Mariners were off and running. “Look for a good pitch, make a good swing, get on base, and see what happens,” Marte said of an approach that has made the daily chore of filling out a lineup card easier for manager Lloyd McClendon. “That’s what your leadoff hitter does,” said McClendon. “He creates havoc. He gets on and he steals bases.” Marte, McClendon continued, “has shown an ability — in a short period of time — that he’s capable of being a solid leadoff guy. I’m not ready to anoint him; we need to take our time. He’ll have his struggles and he’s make mistakes, like all young players do. But I think he’ll be a player we’re all gonna be proud of.” Since his July 31 promotion from the Tacoma Rainiers, Marte has settled into a comfort zone after a brief, inevitable struggle to adjust from the Pacific Coast League, which the 21-year old pretty much dominated as an All-Star shortstop. “My first week, I was a little scared,” he said. “Now I feel normal.” With the game all but out of reach for the A’s, Marte lashed a sixth-inning double to leftcenter, scoring his second run on another Cruz RBI single. The extra-base hit was Marte’s ninth in his past 12 games — he went

without an extra-base hit in his first 12 games — and extended his on-base streak to 13 games. “It’s always important to get off to a good start,” McClendon said of Marte, who is hitting .333. “You never want a young player to go off to the big leagues, get buried, and lose confidence. “His confidence is at an all-time tight right now. This young player is used to playing against better competition in winter ball. I don’t think he’s overwhelmed.” Thanks to Marte’s contribution as first-inning catalyst, a Safeco Field crowd of 23,338 watched the Mariners play what might have been their best game of the year. The offense collected 12 hits, including back-to-back homers off the bats of Kyle Seager and Cruz in the eighth inning. Hernandez gave up three hits, striking out seven while walking one. He attributed the comeback performance to resolving delivery issues that had caused his pitches to approach the plate on a flat line. McClendon was not concerned. “This game is hard to play,” he said, “even for the great ones.” The game will be hard to play for Ketel Marte, too. But it sure looked easy for him Wednesday.

Does M’s Cruz deserve MVP recognition? By John McGrath The News Tribune

SEATTLE — Nelson Cruz’s first-inning RBI single Wednesday extended the Seattle Mariners’ streak of reaching base to 36 consecutive games — longest in the American League. Cruz also leads the league with 39 home runs, and is second in hits with 154. While such numbers make a strong case for a Most Valuable Player candidacy, the Mariners’ absence from the playoff race will work against the 35-year old veteran. Only five MVP winners played for teams with a losing record — Ernie Banks (1958-59 Cubs), Andre Dawson (1987 Cubs), Cal Ripken Jr. (1991 Orioles) and Alex Rodriguez (2003 Rangers). “I think he should get some MVP consideration,” Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon said before his team’s homestand finale Wednesday. “Obviously, where we are in the standings will probably hurt him somewhat. But this

The Mariners’ Nelson Cruz had two RBI singles and a solo home run, his 39th of the season, in Wednesday’s game against the A’s.

guy shows up every day and competes. What he’s done is remarkable. “He’s been a complete hitter — he’ll hit doubles, take a single, and he’s done well in RBI situations, well over .300. And he’s played a pretty decent right field for us.” Cruz’s numbers — he finished Wednesday with a slash line of .321/.390/.615 — stand

up to those of the front-runners in the MVP race, the Blue Jays’ Josh Donaldson (.300/.369/.581) and the Angels’ Mike Trout (.297/.394/.583). But “valuable” is a subjective term to voters, and in the event of a photo finish, a player on a winning team almost always gets the benefit of the doubt over a player on a non-contender.

MARINERS | Notebook

ELAINE THOMPSON / ASSOCIATED PRESS

The Mariners’ Logan Morrison hits an RBI single in the first inning of Wednesday’s game.

Elias to start against Chisox on Thursday Seattle Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon changed his plan for left-hander Vidal Nuno to start the road-trip opener against the White Sox in Chicago. Roenis Elias will pitch Thursday night, with Nuno pushed back to the swing role of spot starter/long reliever. Elias is 4-6 with a 4.22 ERA during what has been a mostly disappointing season for the second-year lefty.A 10-game winner for the Mariners in 2014, Elias has split time between Seattle and Tacoma. He’ll be followed in the rotation by Taijuan Walker on Friday and Hisashi Iwakuma on Saturday. Mike Montgomery is scheduled to start Sunday, but the rookie has struggled since the All-Star break. Asked about Montgomery’s status in the rotation, McClendon admitted he’s not sure. “I just woke up,” he said. Musical chairs lineup Brad Miller, who has started 81 games at shortstop, made his second start in center field Wednesday. Rookie Ketel Marte replaced Miller at short. It’s not a long-term blueprint, merely a chance to evaluate if Miller and Marte might be better off trading places. “Miller’s very athletic,” said McClendon, noting that the infielder’s potential to play center is “intriguing.” As for Marte, the manager said, “he’s coming along just fine. He’s got a ways to go, he makes mistakes here and there, but he’s got a chance to be a pretty good player.” Looking back It was 16 years ago — Aug. 27, 1999 — that starter Jeff Fassero was traded to Texas for minor-league outfielder Adrian Myers. Fassero was mired in the worst stretch of his career — he was 4-14, with a 7.38 ERA, at the time of the trade — but the playoff-bound Rangers were desperate for left-handed pitching.

Seahawks From Page C1

Sept. 13 opener at St. Louis. He’s living a self-described “dream come true,” starting for the NFL’s top-ranked defense on Saturday against the Chargers in front of dozens of family and friends who will be there from Lakewood, California, 90 minutes or so up the I-5 and 405 freeways from San Diego. In practices he’s lining up next to All-Pro Earl Thomas, who’s back from shoulder surgery but still in a red, no-contact jersey. “It was surreal the first time he came back to practice and I lined up with him,” Bailey said, “because it’s a for-real possibility. “I mean, I’ve done it in OTAs but that’s so far out it doesn’t truly mean anything. Doing it now I’m like, ‘Wow! I am really out there playing with Earl!’ “It’s just great, man. Dream come true. And I really, personally don’t want to let those guys down. They’ve set a standard here, and if my number’s called

I’m going to give 120 percent to uphold that standard.” As unlikely as it seemed when Chancellor first took this stance, as unlikely as it might still be with time remaining for an unforeseen break to the impasse before the opener, Bailey’s number — No. 37 — really, actually could get called. Following Wednesday’s nopads practice, All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman said he’s talked to Chancellor regularly, the last time on Tuesday. But Sherman acknowledged both sides have “dug in their heels.” The Seahawks have been in regular contact with Chancellor and his agent. But they aren’t budging off not wanting to set the precedent of re-doing a deal that has three years remaining. Sherman said the players aren’t spending time wondering when Chancellor is going to show up. “I don’t think we are wondering about anything. I think we are focused on what we’re doing here,” Sherman said. “If they work something out with him that would be phenomenal; we’ll welcome him back with open arms. But if not we’ll focus on what we

have here and continue to play.” How has Bailey gone from undrafted last year as a fourthyear junior seemingly making a mistake by coming out a year early at USC to this, poised to start in the middle of the defense that’s led Seattle to the last two Super Bowls? Turns out Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and defensive coordinator Kris Richard have known Bailey since 2008. That’s when Bailey said they were his main USC recruiters visiting him at Lakewood High School just south of Los Angeles. Carroll and Richard, then Seattle’s secondary coach, tapped that knowledge and experience when the Seahawks signed Bailey as a rookie free agent in May 2014. “He’s always been a playmaker. We watched him in high school, a million years ago it seems,” Carroll said. “He always did stuff. He just continues to show that he’s got great instincts. “You can’t deny the production he’s turning out. It’s real exciting.” Bailey says his best preparation to become Seattle’s strong safety with run-stopping responsibilities

near the line of scrimmage is the move the staff of Lane Kiffin, who succeeded Carroll at USC, made with him from the secondary. “The greatest thing that’s helped me is when I was at SC playing linebacker,” Bailey said. “That gave me experience to see ‘in the box’ (near the line) and to understand fronts. I learned how to move a lot faster near the line and how to get away from blocks. I know where guys need to go up front. “That really helps me when I roll down as a strong safety.” That linebacking experience is coming in far handier than the Seahawks could have imagined as Chancellor’s holdout has gone on way further than the defense could have planned. “Yeah, no doubt about it. He’s always been an aggressive, tenacious hitter and defender,” Richard said. “I remember him all the way back in high school. We were there at USC recruiting him at that time, so that was one thing that stood out about him aside from the fact that he went out and got the football. “So those are things that he’s

continued to carry over throughout his tenure here. So, yeah, we’re really excited for his future.” Not as excited as Bailey is. He knows Chancellor will come back some day, either before the regular season or during it. Yet he noted how the entire league will have on tape the plays he is getting with the starters on the league’s top defense. “It’s a blessing,” he said. “I’ve been working my whole life to get put in this position. I worry about the things that I can control. Right now I can control the plays I put on tape. I mean, it’s going to pay dividends for me in the future. “Can you truly be angry if an All-Pro, someone who might go down as one of the best strong safeties ever, comes back and (gets) the job? No, I’m not going to be upset about that. I mean, that’s what I expect. He’s Kam. His presence is huge in this organization. “I’m just thankful that it’s a Pro Bowler taking my place. Not like it’s a rookie or someone I actually feel like, ‘Oh, I should be out there.’ “I’m just blessed.”

Rolling Stone cover boy Wilson and ‘Recovery Water’ By Gregg Bell The News Tribune

RENTON — Russell Wilson wants you to know the secret to his latest on-field success. “Recovery Water.” The Seahawks quarterback/pop-culture man is on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine’s latest issue. Beyond more details on his relationship with singer Ciara, beyond a beefcake-y photo of him sprawled on a couch, the long article — clearly written before he signed his $87.6 million contract extension in early August to become the NFL’s second-high paid quarterback — includes Wilson describing how he bounced back so quickly from a vicious, open-field hit by Green Bay’s Clay Matthews on the return of an interception he threw in January’s NFC championship game. Wilson didn’t miss a play. He led Seattle’s rally from 16-0 down midway through the third quarter to a 28-22 victory in overtime. Wilson stayed clear-headed after Matthews’ hit enough to call the audible that resulted in his touchdown pass to Jermaine Kearse that sent the Seahawks to their second consecutive Super Bowl. “I banged my head during the Packers game in the playoffs, and the next day I was fine,” Wilson tells RS. “It was the water.” “The water” is the $3-per-bottle Reliant “Recovery Water,” a Tacoma-based venture in which Wilson is an investor. It has, according to Wilson and the Rolling Stone article, “nanobubbles and electrolytes that purportedly helps people recover quickly from workouts and, according to Wilson, injury. He mentions a teammate whose knee healed miraculously ...” Within a few hours Wednesday #nanobubbles was a trending hashtag on social media. In the RS story, Wilson’s agent Mark Rodgers is quoted as interjecting: “Well, we’re not saying we have real medical proof.” “But,” the article reads, “Wilson shakes his head, energized by the subject. He speaks with an evangelist’s zeal. “’I know it works.’ His eyes brighten. ‘Soon you’re going to be able to order it straight from Amazon.’” After practice Wednesday before Saturday’s third exhibition game at San Diego, Wilson tweeted: “I believe @ Recovery_Water helped prevent me from getting a concussion based on a bad hit! #NanoBubbles” Wilson is scheduled to talk to the local (football) media Thursday following practice. The conversation may not be all about football. Extra point The team released QB Jake Waters one week after signing him, a further indication Tarvaris Jackson will return next week from a high-ankle sprain. ... Seattle signed undrafted rookie WR Deontay Greenberry. Greenberry, from the University of Houston, was signed by Dallas in May and released last week.

49ers’ Brooks charged with sexual battery, ex-teammate McDonald indicted for rape By Tracey Kaplan and Cam Inman San Jose Mercury News

SAN JOSE, Calif. — In the latest blow to a football team rocked by off-field player misconduct allegations in recent years, Santa Clara County prosecutors Wednesday filed a misdemeanor sexual battery charge against San Francisco 49ers linebacker Ahmad Brooks over an incident with an intoxicated woman at a December house party. Prosecutors also announced that a grand jury has indicted Brooks’ former teammate Ray McDonald on a felony rape charge involving the same woman after the party at McDonald’s San Jose home. If convicted, Brooks, 31, could face up to six months in jail. Shortly after prosecutors announced the charges, the 49ers said they barred Brooks from participating in Saturday’s preseason game in Denver. “We take any charge against a member of this organization seriously and are in communication with the NFL,” San Francisco 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said in a statement. “Ahmad is returning home to California and will not participate in Saturday’s game.”

Lawyers for Brooks and McDonald were not immediately available for comment. Brooks was expected to surrender to the sheriff’s department late Wednesday and post bail. McDonald, 30, surrendered earlier in the day to the Sheriff’s Office and was released after posting $100,000 bail. He faces a maximum of eight years in prison if he is convicted of rape. The alleged incident occurred Dec. 15 after a pool party at McDonald’s home in the exclusive Silver Creek neighborhood in San Jose. He was set to be arraigned on the charges Sept. 25. In December, the 49ers released McDonald, citing a “pattern of poor decision-making.” He was signed by the Chicago Bears, but in May that team also let him go when he was arrested on domestic violence charges after a clash with his exfiancee in Santa Clara while she was holding their infant child. The indictments of McDonald and Brooks are the latest off-field legal developments involving 49ers players. Star linebacker Aldon Smith was released by the 49ers on Aug. 7 after his fifth arrest since 2012, this one for a purported hit-and-run drunkendriving accident. Fullback Bruce Miller pleaded no contest in June to

a misdemeanor domestic-violence charge stemming from a March clash with his then-fiancee at a Santa Clara shopping plaza. Former cornerback Chris Culliver still faces prosecution on suspicion of hit-andrun. Wide receiver Jerome Simpson, an offseason signee, was suspended by the NFL for the first six games of the coming season — his third suspension in four years — for violating the league’s substance abuse policy while a member of the Minnesota Vikings. Brooks has evolved into a twotime Pro Bowler in his 49ers tenure, making 28 sacks over the past four seasons as the starter at left outside linebacker. But the 49ers were aware as late of May that Brooks was under investigation, as he was named in a civil suit regarding the incident. If the 49ers do not release Brooks, he could be asked to stay away from the team during the legal process, as they did with Miller. The 49ers cannot suspend Brooks, per the collective bargaining agreement; that action only can be taken by the league. The league did not immediately return a message seeking comment. Brooks had poised himself to take over at right outside linebacker in place of Smith.

Jadeveon Clowney is expected to play in Houston’s season opener against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sept. 13. The top overall pick in the 2014 draft had microfracture surgery on his right knee in December and didn’t return to practice until Aug. 17.

Manziel probably won’t play BEREA, Ohio — Quarterback Johnny Manziel’s right elbow soreness — a problem the Cleveland Browns said has troubled the former Texas A&M star since he was in high school — isn’t going away, so the team is shutting him down. Head coach Mike Pettine said the second-year quarterback will likely sit out an exhibition Saturday at Tampa Bay. “It hasn’t bounced all the way back,” Pettine said. “We’re going to err on the side of caution.” An MRI did not reveal any structural damage in the 2012 Heisman Trophy winner’s elbow.

Match your organizing scheme to your kids, from kindergarten to college

Your home’s back-to-school plan By Danielle Braff Chicago Tribune

School is here or coming, so before the mad rush of lunches, artwork and papers begin flooding your home again, it’s best to have an organizational plan. Our advice? Match your organizing scheme to your kids — a first-grader with an artistic side is going to require a different approach from a high-schooler with college applications and advanced math to contend with. Keeping in mind the stages each family passes through as children advance through school, we got a little expert advice and devised a plan for each age group. “When I think about organizing different age groups, the general way I think about it is: Little kids need help managing their things, older elementary school kids need help managing their time, high school kids need help learning how to manage responsibilities,” said Heidi

Solomon, a certified professional organizer and founder of Bostonbased P.O.S.H/ Professional Organizing Services by Heidi. Consider the plans below a starter guide to organizational sanity for each age group — pick and choose what works to suit your house and family.

Preschool The goal: Teach small chores such as putting away toys and manage the art projects. Tame the artwork. “It’s important to identify where it will be stored and displayed before it

takes over the house,” Solomon said. “I recommend selecting an area of the house where it will be displayed, and then rotating out the pieces as more come in. Some can be framed, some can be loose — but the idea is that the amount of space consumed is limited to one or two areas of the house.” The Personalized Art Portfolio ($19.95 at onestepahead.com) can store oversized masterpieces in nine compartments so you can divide their work by age, year or subject. Tidy the art supplies. These tend to multiply. But the Closetware Over-the-Door 24-Pocket Shoe Organizer ($14.99 at bedbathandbeyond.com) is an easy way to keep everything in place, suggested Jill Annis, of Simply Organized in Madison, Wisconsin.

The goal: Learn time management by using a calendar and clock, foster independence with basic responsibilities like making their own lunches and make places for sports equipment and homework. Tie them down. Being able to track everyone’s schedules at a glance will keep you on top of all of your family’s activities. Whether you use an old-school wall-mounted calendar with spaces for each family member or an electronic version linked to your smartphone, assign a different color for each person to make it easier to see who’s where when, Zaslow said. Transfer the information from schedules, invitations and fliers to the calendar and toss the papers. See PLAN, Page D3

There’s more purpose to these toys than just play C hildren’s toys reflect the world of adults, so it is not surprising that sometimes a toy represents the political ideas of the parents and the children just think of it as a toy. George Brown, the famous toymaker from Connecticut, patented a suffragette toy in 1874, a few years after the first national organization seeking the vote for women was established in 1869. Women organized, protested and attempted to vote in the 1870s. They were arrested, but they gained publicity for their movement. When the Supreme Court ruled

against them, they started a campaign at the state level for an amendment to the Constitution to give them the right to vote. It was not until Aug. 26, 1920, that women in the United States were given the right to vote. The George Brown toy has a bell, a large wheel and a woman dressed in clothes worn by suffragettes. It is a clever toy. As the wheel turns the bell rings and the woman’s legs move, so it looks as if she is pushing the wheel.

It might be time to update your landscaping H

omeowners often update or refresh the interior of their homes by changing paint color or furniture, but the design of your lawn probably doesn’t receive your attention that frequently. Why not? Adding new plants, reshaping existing ones or changing the color of your planters can be just as simple as buying a new throw pillow. Your landscaping is always evolving, whether it’s seasonal or just maturation. That perfect look you once had may be slightly off balance thanks to the tree that grew too tall or the bush that didn’t survive the last windstorm. Plus, your attitude about your landscape can change, too. Is your lawn overdue for

a change? Angie’s List member Linda C. and her husband felt the front yard of their ranch home in Newark, Delaware, was completely unremarkable. “I found I could spend an afternoon doing yard work, and the yard still looked pretty much the same ... just ‘blah,’ ” Linda says. The couple embarked on a landscaping project with the goal of creating a private outdoor summer “room,” complete with a curved stone landscaping wall, a tree canopy as the “roof” and a bird garden. Those big changes continue to lead to small ones. “The success of the wall project has encouraged and inspired me to continue working on

improving our bird garden and patio,” Linda says. So when’s a good time to assess the look of your lawn? Try to take a hard look at your landscape plan at least every five to 10 years. James Woodhead, president of Woody’s Custom Landscaping in Battle Ground, says most landscapes need changing over the years. A landscape that was installed 10 years ago, for instance, might not suit your landscaping needs today. Woodhead points out that perhaps your children have outgrown that backyard play area, or maybe you desire a more inviting space that allows you to enjoy the outdoors with friends and family.

Because the components of your landscape are living (and hopefully growing) things, it’s important to keep an eye on the overall balance. Patrick Anderson, administrator of plant health care at Heartwood Tree Service in Charlotte, North Carolina, likes to contrast the components of your lawn to your living room furniture. As your couch becomes older it probably won’t be getting larger and encroaching upon other parts of your home, but your trees and shrubs definitely can, he says. Anderson adds that mature plant size, placement and the intent of design are paramount when choosing trees and shrubs.

What: What makes Tricyrtis formosana, or “Samurai,” worthy of a GPP is that it has very showy flowers in the fall. Long past when other plants have come and gone, Tricyrtis takes its place center stage. This is an excellent plant to be used in a shady border or by itself in a more natural setting where it can be seen up close. Tricyrtis formosana “Samurai” makes a great specimen plant or works well in combination with Asarum, Carex oshimensis “Evergold,” Helleborus or a number of ferns. Where: Tricyrtis formosana grows best in moist but well drained, humus-rich soil in light or open shade. In colder areas planting in a brighter spot will encourage slightly earlier blooming, thus avoiding frost. Do not plant in full sun because the leaves will burn. This plant will form a rhizomatous clump over time. It should not be allowed to dry out completely and would benefit from a layer of mulch when dormant. Size: Reaches a height of 1 foot, 6 inches with a spread of 1 foot, 6 inches. GreatPlantPicks.org

the front yard was left in disarray. “A large part of our yard was disturbed, and we had to wait for the ground to settle through the winter before we could begin this next phase of restoring our yard,” he says. Jerrod and his family settled on having pea gravel installed in the patio area because the ground had still not completely settled. It might be not have been his initial intent, but a homeowner should expect a yard to throw a few punches. So it’s smart to be ready to roll — and change — with them.

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

BACKYARD PRIVACY 1391353

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

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

Flooring

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

What if I have to redo my landscaping from scratch? Anderson says completely changing your landscape design is a good thing and something you shouldn’t be afraid to do. Why, he asks, should a homeowner nurse along an old decrepit azalea, when it can be replaced by one of the newer varieties? Other times, however, you might not have a choice when it comes to changing your landscaping. Angie’s List member Jerrod N., of Indianapolis, recently endured the unfortunate event of having a sewer line collapse, which meant a large part of his front yard had to be dug up in order to install a new line. While it was great to have the plumbing fixed,

the end of November. I like to plant bulbs underneath my winter pansies and let them come up through them in the spring. Since the pansies need planting early in the fall and the bulbs go underneath them, it’s not practical to wait until November. Fill your pots half full of soil, lay in the bulbs, with some bone meal, of course, finish filling with soil, plant the pansies and create a combination planter for fall, winter and spring interest. You can also layer bulbs in a planter by putting daffodils near the bottom covered with an inch of soil. Then put tulips above them covered with an inch of soil and finally smaller bulbs such as crocus near the

surface. A planter like this with nothing but bulbs in it will bloom from February until April with very little care. We all need to work on the concept of throwing out the old and making room for the new. Change is good. A planted container is really just a flower arrangement with roots attached. Try to move beyond the habit of making plants last forever. Dump the geraniums, stir up the soil and let it breathe for a week while you decide what you are going to create for the winter.

There is a paper sign on the front of the basket that reads, “My First Sweetheart.” Can you tell me anything about the doll? I paid just under $300 — did I pay too much? A: Your doll was used as an advertising display for Sweetheart soap. The brand was made by the Manhattan Soap Co. and advertised as “the soap that agrees with your skin.” The doll has a head, arms and legs that are made of composition, and an electric motor that keeps them moving. It was made

by Mechanical Man Inc. of New York. It was sold to retailers who sold the soap, probably during the 1930s, when Sweetheart soap sponsored several popular radio shows. Sweetheart Soap dolls have sold for prices ranging from $450 to $1,400 at auctions during the past few years. Tip: To remove a sticky price tag or instruction label from a glass or metal object use a hair dryer. The heat should soften the glue and the paper will be easy to peel off.

t’s always a dilemma this time of year. It’s time to do our fall planting and get ready for fall and winter, but the flowerpots and beds are still looking great. In an effort to get our money’s worth out of our summer plantings, we nurse our geraniums and petunias along well into October. By waiting so long to replant, though, we miss the opportunity to compose new plantings that will look interesting this fall and winter and into the spring. Planting fall and winter containers requires a paradigm shift. Instead of thinking of flowers as our source of color, we need to shift our focus to colors and textures of foliage. We

Parenting is a challenge; are you up to it?

DAILY CROSSWORD

Dear Carolyn: I’m 35 and my husband is 51. Would it be stupid for us to have a baby? — Ontario Depends. So I’ll just repeat my standard advice to anyone wrestling with the decision to have children: Would you want you as parents? Include potential best and worst cases in your reasoning. If the answer is anything but a nondelusional yes, then it would be selfish/immoral/irresponsible to have kids. Carolyn: As people, we’re fine (maybe even great). As potential parents, we have a lot to offer. I’m just worried about our (his) age(s). — Ontario Again Like I said, it’s about what you would be comfortable choosing for yourself if you were that child. Let’s say neither of you dies prematurely. Then your child would be a young adult by the time Dad dies. Does that sound like something you could live with, as a child? Let’s say your husband has a long illness preceding that non-premature death — something for which older people are at higher risk. Then it could affect your child’s adolescence. How does your imagined child handle that?

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT Of course, serious illnesses, accidents and other causes of premature death aren’t famous for their ability to discriminate, and do sometimes strike the young parents of young children. Likewise, the risk of premature death is higher, say, among members of the military than it is for civilians. Does that mean people in the service shouldn’t have children? People who smoke shouldn’t have kids? I could also go down the path of the nature of older parenthood. I just came across a reader’s comment that his/her parents, who were 35 and 47 when s/he was born, “were too old to get on the ground and roughhouse with me.” But I can tell you, as a mom who started having kids at 35 and spends plenty of time getting piled upon by said kids, that’s not just a factor of age. That’s also about physical condition, temperament,

carry-over from one’s own childhood, etc. Older parents are often more mature and more available to their kids. Except the ones who, ah, aren’t. So, that’s why my answer to you won’t get any more decisive. Whether you’d want you as parents covers everything: how you’ll play with your kids; how you’ll pay for kids; how you’ll wear your age; how each of you would handle it if one of you got sick or died, or if your marriage dissolved; how you’ll divide the workload; how you’ll handle discipline, extended family, education — everything. This isn’t a set of concerns for older parents-to-be, it’s for all parents-to-be. If the answer is, for example, “A or B couldn’t handle being a single parent,” then maybe A and B shouldn’t have kids, even if they’re both 28 — because who’s to say they’ll be competent, energetic, effective co-parents just because they’re 28? You do your best to foresee the life you two can offer a child, and the measures you’d take in the face of the unforeseen. Then, you decide — not rationalize — whether it’s a life you’d want yourself. To my mind, at least, that’s the beginning and the end of the test. Washington Post Writers Group

Wife totally attached to her phone, tablet

THE NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE

Dear Abby: My wife and I have been married 22 years, and we had a good marriage until recently. Over the last three years she has become consumed with her phone and tablet. She goes nowhere and does nothing without them. Every night and weekend she sits engrossed in both devices until well after I have gone to bed. If I ask what she’s doing or who she’s texting, she accuses me of being controlling and not trusting her. We can’t watch a movie, eat a meal (out or at home) or anything else without her constantly tending to at least one of her devices. She says she can multitask and I shouldn’t be concerned, but it has greatly diminished our relationship. If that isn’t enough, I have seen her communications with other men, sometimes intimate, late at night. When I ask about them, she throws the same labels at me. What should I do? — Only Human In South Carolina Dear Only Human: What you should do is tell your wife you have seen the intimate late-night conversations she has been having with other men, and that you feel she has abandoned you. Do not let her accuse you of being controlling or untrusting. You have done nothing wrong. If she is willing to come clean and deal with the problems in your marriage, which go beyond her addiction to electronic devices, you should agree to marriage counseling. If she’s not, you will then have to weigh whether this kind of marriage is enough for you.

Others think I’d be crazy if I did that and even insisted on paying for mine. If I pay for everyone to eat at a restaurant, it’s going to be pricy and my parents will be upset.

BRIDGE Cy the Cynic says that before you find fault, count to ten — of your own. In today’s deal from a Chicago game, North-South lost 100 points. Against four spades, West led the queen of clubs. South ruffed the third club and took his three high trumps. When East discarded, South couldn’t afford to concede a trump to West, who would cash two more clubs. So South led a heart to dummy, returned a diamond to his queen and continued

hearts. West ruffed the third heart and led another club, and South ruffed but lost a diamond at the end. As you’d imagine, South found fault with North’s bidding. “Bid 3NT at your second or third turn,” South griped. North’s bidding was questionable, but South’s play wasn’t faultless. After South ruffs the third club, he can lead a low trump. West can take the jack, but if he leads another club, South can ruff in dummy. He comes to his ace of diamonds, draws trumps and runs the hearts for 10 tricks. No other defense

ANSWER: A minimum hand for partner such as J 3, A 3 2, K J 8 5 3, A 9 3 will make six diamonds all but a laydown. Jump to two spades, intending to support the diamonds next, telling him right away that slam is likely so he can cooperate.

Colbert Week 1 to feature celebs, brains

Thursday’s highlights on TV include: Think you had a tough day at work? Behold “Power & Ice.” It’s a new series that follows three Alaskan power companies as they compete in the brutal world of line building and maintenance amid the “most

booking author Stephen King, tech executives Elon Musk (SpaceX and Tesla Motors) and Travis Kalanick (Uber) and, in a major head-scratcher, a Paul Simon tribute band called Troubled Waters. And that’s just the guests. “We should always remember that Colbert himself is not always that predictable,” said Penn State professor Sophia A. McClennen, author of “Colbert’s America: Satire and Democracy.” One of the defining features of his Comedy Central program, which ended its nine-year run in December, was its focus on politicians, authors, academics, scientists and public intellectuals — personalities more likely to give a TED talk than appear in “Ted.” To be sure, Colbert welcomed the occasional megawatt celebrity, like Jennifer Lawrence, but more typical were guests

such as French economist Thomas Piketty or Rob Rhinehart, inventor of the meal-replacement drink Soylent. Colbert has said that one of his favorite guests was Naquasia LeGrand, a KFC employee and union organizer from Brooklyn. Though she is a dynamic young woman who made for a memorable interview, she’s hardly the type of name to draw in millions of viewers in an intensely competitive late-night environment. But the comedian has indicated that he will continue to look beyond the roster of self-promotional celebrities when he moves to CBS. “Anybody who is interesting and has something to say, that’s what I’m interested in,” he said this month at the Television Critics Association summer press tour. “I love artists, whether they’re actors or musicians. I want to have politicians of all stripes on the show. But if somebody is not famous and they’ve

got something to say and they can present themselves on camera, I think that would be a perfect guest to have.” Along with most of his senior staff from “The Colbert Report,” Colbert has retained booker Emily Lazar as head of the talent department at “Late Show,” but he’s also hired a new entertainment producer, Emily Gertler, from the celebrity-focused “Good Morning America,” suggesting he will opt for a mix of Hollywood star power and more substantive guests. Another open question is how much Colbert’s “Late Show” will have to compete with “The Tonight Show” when it comes to booking top-tier Hollywood stars. “Tonight” is based in New York, just a few blocks away from “Late Show,” so celebrities face a tough choice at 11:35 p.m.: Fallon or Colbert? Then again, the very concept of a late-night booking war may eventually turn out, like linear television, to be a thing of the past.

Thurber Prize judges have made it official: Women are funny, too. Nearly 20 years after its founding, the all-male winners’ circle for the Thurber Prize for American Humor is finally changing. New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast, actress-writer Annabelle Gurwitch and novelist Julie Schumacher were the finalists announced Monday by organizers of the $5,000 prize. Chast was cited for her graphic memoir about her parents, “Can’t We

Talk About Something More Pleasant?” Gurwitch was included for her essay collection “I See You Made An Effort.” Schumacher was nominated for the academic satire, told in letters, called “Dear Committee Members.” “The finalists share more than their gender in common — they are also all above the age of 50,” said awards judge Sloane Crosley, whose book of essays “I Was Told There’d Be Cake” was a finalist in 2009.

Ever since he announced plans to abandon his satiric persona for his new late-night gig on CBS, the big question has been what “the real Stephen Colbert” will be like. Far less attention has been paid to how the comedian’s idiosyncratic, bookish taste in guests might translate to the mainstream landscape of broadcast television. But on that front, at least, some clues are beginning to emerge. The guest list for the “Late Show’s” first week was released Monday, and it goes beyond the usual assortment of A-list movie stars and musicians. Naturally, there are big names: Colbert’s debut episode Sept. 8 will feature actor-director George Clooney and GOP presidential hopeful Jeb Bush. Other premiere-week guests include actress Scarlett Johansson, hiphop artist Kendrick Lamar, comedian Amy Schumer and country star Toby Keith. But true to his trailblazing reputation, Colbert has also made some more unconventional choices,
