MARYSVILLE PILCHUCK

No evidence of warning A substitute teacher who swore she was told about plans for the shooting was untruthful, an investigation finds. By Rikki King, Eric Stevick and Diana Hefley Herald Writers

MARYSVILLE — Claims by a substitute teacher that a student warned her two days before the

shootings at Marysville Pilchuck High School are unfounded, a detective who worked the case said Wednesday. Marysville police detective Craig Bartl is part of the Snohomish County Multiple Agency

Response Team that did the investigation. The team thoroughly investigated the teacher’s claim months ago and determined it was untrue. “Our SMART team members, we pride ourselves on being thorough, unbiased, doing our investigations and having a high level of integrity and

professionalism,” he said. “Any suggestion that we don’t do it that way is just irresponsible.” Tuesday’s release of 1,400 pages from the investigation prompted intense news coverage. Some Seattle media outlets have focused on a substitute teacher’s two sworn statements See MPHS, Page A2

LAKE STEVENS — Like a wave, it started as a ripple and ended in a roar. Hundreds of students flooded the hallways of Lake Stevens High School on Wednesday morning on their first day of the new school year. The 609-person strong sophomore class was welcomed by about 75 Link Crew leaders, upperclassmen chosen to guide new students through

their first day of high school. The sophomores entered the halls with hesitant steps and hushed conversations that gradually gave way to cheers and clapping as teachers, administrators and Link Crew leaders challenged them to loosen up and make themselves at home. Link Day was a chance for sophomores, the youngest class at Lake Stevens High School, to learn the layout of the campus and to discover their Viking spirit before 1,200 juniors and seniors join them Thursday.

Snohomish County’s executive now says the construction project should be put on hold and there might be a better location.

EVERETT — Snohomish County’s top elected official was once among the strongest advocates for building a new courthouse in downtown Everett, but he’s changed his mind. County Executive John Lovick joined a chorus of doubters this week when he recommended the courthouse project be put on hold, possibly for years. Moreover, Lovick said he’s no longer sure that Everett’s the best location for it. He blamed the city’s political leaders for scuttling a project he insists his administration was prepared to deliver. “So many times, we thought we had a deal and we didn’t,” he said. “This has been tremendously difficult for all of us.” The executive’s change of heart follows clear signals that County Council members are ready to kill or substantially pare back the project over budget worries. For more than a year, the courthouse plans have been a source of nearconstant political friction. Everett Mayor Ray Stephanson said it’s not the city’s fault the courthouse project has been troubled since its inception. “If county leadership decides that this particular project should not go forward, that is a county decision,” the mayor said. “It is unfair and inaccurate for the county to use the city as an excuse.” Lovick said trouble started on Christmas Eve, when the City Council imposed an emergency ordinance requiring 300 additional parking spaces not in the original courthouse plans. The new rule threatened an already strained $162 million project budget. The mayor said Lovick’s administration for months led him to believe the courthouse plans included some sort of parking garage. Stephanson and Lovick reached a tentative parking agreement this spring for the

in which she first said she had tried to warn about the shootings and then later recanted that story. Days after the shootings, Sheriff Ty Trenary promised that any answers detectives uncovered would be made public but cautioned that the investigation might never resolve why 15-year-old Jaylen Fryberg shot five of his friends in the cafeteria that day, killing four, before taking his own life. After Tuesday’s records release, some media outlets focused their stories on the documents involving substitute teacher Rosemarie Cooper, 67, who had recanted her initial statements. Tuesday night she told a TV reporter that she stands by what she originally said, and she claimed to have been silenced by authorities. On Wednesday, she did not respond to a Daily Herald request for comment. Cooper’s claims were a minor part of a sprawling investigation involving dozens of detectives from different agencies. Hers were among scores of interviews released Tuesday. The sudden focus on Cooper by some in the media has been baffling to those who witnessed the aftermath of the shooting in Marysville and surrounding communities. “It’s too bad that we have to address this issue when, at this time, we’re trying to move forward as a community, as a city, as a department,” Bartl said. “To have to go back to address issues like this, it’s not fair for all of us involved.”

Authorities respond Transcripts of the detectives’ interviews with the

teacher were more than 900 pages into the report released Tuesday. The city of Everett on Wednesday released the audio recordings of the police interviews with Cooper “to clarify questions raised by several media outlets” about the teacher’s claims. Trenary also issued a statement, saying he stood by the detectives and their conclusions. “A team of the best investigators in this county followed up on all credible evidence and witness statements, which is corroborated by investigative records and files,” the sheriff said. Marysville School District officials said they learned of Cooper’s claim shortly after the shootings and brought it to the attention of police. “We were made aware of this allegation early on after the tragedy and immediately reported it to law enforcement, which investigated and reported back to the School District that it was unfounded,” Superintendent Becky Berg said Wednesday. “We have full confidence in the integrity of the investigation by the SMART team.”

Who said what? Cooper received her first teaching certificate in September 1973 and currently holds a valid substitute teacher certificate, according to the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. She told a TV station that she no longer is working as a sub. Documents indicate that Cooper’s claim that she’d been tipped off about the shootings reached police indirectly. She told an acquaintance from church at a group dinner. That

What Cooper said to the acquaintance and police varied wildly. Detectives interviewed school staff, including people from the front office, and the student who Cooper said had approached her two days before the violence. In her interviews with police, Cooper claimed Marysville Pilchuck students were “whooping and hollering” in class over what she thought were messages on their smartphones. She said one boy approached her and said there was going to be a shooting at the school. Detectives spoke with that boy. He denied the substitute teacher’s claims. Detectives believed him to be credible, records show. “We took that claim seriously,” Bartl said. “We investigated that claim thoroughly, we interviewed multiple people, we talked to multiple people and, in the end, it was unfounded.” Cooper didn’t return calls from investigators, so they went to her house on the Tulalip Indian Reservation on Oct. 29.

detective Jeff Rhue, the lead detective in the case, interviewed Cooper. She said she was a substitute teacher at the high school for a literature class Oct. 22. That was two days before the shootings. Her freshman class was so rowdy she couldn’t take attendance. Students refused to sit in their assigned seats or do their work. She told Rhue a shy boy approached her desk and said the kids were misbehaving because of something on a cellphone. At first, she claimed the boy told her there would be a shooting in the cafeteria at 10 a.m. that Friday and that kids were talking about seeing a post to that effect on Twitter. She asked the boy for his name and he “shook his head and walked off,” she said.

Evolving account On Tuesday night this week, Cooper gave a different story to a television reporter. She told KCPQ-TV that the warning happened a day before the shooting, not two, and that she’d been told the shooter’s last name. There is no evidence in investigation documents made public that any student ever reported seeing a warning on Twitter before the shooting. Fryberg’s social media posts, including those from Twitter, from the days before were included in the documents. Cooper said that after the class Oct. 22, she reported the rumor to an attendance secretary. Her description of the secretary didn’t match any school staff, other employees told police. She claimed school staff seemed unconcerned by her report. She said she took notes and put them in a substitute teacher’s folder, which she turned in at the front desk. She also said they were in a notebook, or maybe in the regular teacher’s textbook. The regular teacher in that classroom said Cooper left him notes, but they contained no warning. He threw the notes away. Detectives asked a custodian to go through trash cans and recycle bins to look for the notes, which

weren’t recovered. In detective interviews, Cooper gave multiple, conflicting descriptions of her conversations with the shy boy. She said she couldn’t see much of his face because he wore “a winter hat with a brim, a little brim, and a tassel, and then this long scarf connected to it.” She said that if that ever happened to her again, she would call 911 because she was told “from another school that that’s what you have to do.” She also didn’t mention the conversation with the boy to her husband until after the shootings, she said. Her husband interrupted her first interview with detectives to say that substitute teachers are treated poorly in general. Cooper was interviewed again by Rhue on Oct. 31. She was about two hours late to the appointment. A friend of hers said she got lost on the way to the State Patrol office in Marysville. Her home is about four miles away from the station on 116th Street NE. She reportedly told the detective that she has a bad memory and gets confused about things, and “her husband always yells at her about that,” Rhue wrote. Cooper told KCPQ that the police called her a liar and she told them what they wanted to hear because they didn’t believe her. “They were screaming at me. I just wanted it to stop,” she said on TV, declining to show her face. There is no screaming and yelling on the audio recordings released Wednesday. Instead, on Oct. 31, she calmly told Rhue that maybe she’d been confused, that what she thought was a warning maybe was a song lyric that someone sang in class, or something she’d seen on TV. “Maybe I saw the shooting on TV so much I thought I may have heard it,” she said. Rhue asked Cooper whether she’d actually been warned about a shooting. “I can’t be sure,” she said. Rikki King: 425-339-3449; rking@heraldnet.com.

First in-patient hospice to open in county By Sharon Salyer Herald Writer

EVERETT — Snohomish County’s first in-patient hospice service is scheduled to open early next year at Providence Regional Medical Center Everett, fulfilling a more than decade-long goal to provide specialized end-of-life care. The $5.3 million in-patient hospice service could open as early as January. It will be able to serve up to 16 patients, said Peg Rutchik, Providence’s vice president of hospice services. Two rooms can be converted to serve

children. The unit will be housed at the hospital’s Colby Campus. It’s the first in-patient hospice unit to be opened by Providence Health & Services, which operates hospitals and medical clinics in Alaska, California, Oregon Montana and Washington. “I think this is a great thing to have happen for the people in Snohomish County and has the potential to impact all of Providence wherever we have hospice programs,” she said. The new unit will have a staff of about 20 people, some of whom will work only at the unit and some, such as social workers and

An in-patient unit is needed because sometimes hospice patients have symptoms that can’t be managed at home and need the help of skilled hospice caregivers, she said. This

could be for conditions such as a patient whose pain is increasingly significantly and needs more aggressive treatment or if a patient is experiencing seizures. Patients generally stay in the unit three to five days. There are six in-patient hospice programs in Washington.

The in-patient service is the newest addition to a hospice program that began in 1978 in Snohomish County, championed by Sister Georgette Bayless. Providence Hospice & Homecare of Snohomish County provides services to patients in their homes, as well as bereavement services and respite care, serving 1,942 adults and 34 children last year. Bayless said the local hospice service began informally. An area doctor asked her to go to the home of a woman who was dying from cancer and lived See HOSPICE, Page A4

New school year has Clothes for Kids open for business By Julie Muhlstein Herald Writer

LYNNWOOD — Jeans, new underwear, shoes, coats and more are needed by a group that has been outfitting children for school since the 1980s. Clothes For Kids began with an Edmonds School District

classroom-turned-clothing closet set up by a Parent Teacher Student Association group. By 1984, it was an established nonprofit organization. On Aug. 24, Clothes For Kids opened for its 32nd year of providing free school wardrobes to students from low-income families. As of Wednesday, 657 kids

had come through the doors since opening day. “Kids want to come and try on clothes, and we want them to,” said Nancy Laird Burris, the agency’s program manager. “We want it to be a family shopping experience. For many of our families, other than Goodwill or Value Village, this is the only store

they can go to.” A family needing help from Clothes For Kids must get a requisition for clothing from their school office. Students from schools all over Snohomish County are eligible for clothing if they qualify for free or reducedprice lunches. Clothes For Kids is open from mid-August through

mid-February each year. Most students are helped between mid-August and the end of September. “In October, we pick up Head Start children, 3- and 4-yearolds. In the winter, it’s more families moving to the area, or See CLOTHES, Page A5

No charges against officer in Olympia police shooting By Rachel La Corte Associated Press

OLYMPIA — A police officer who shot and injured two men he says repeatedly threatened him during a late night encounter on a dark street was justified in the shooting, and the men have been charged with assault, a prosecutor said Wednesday. At a news conference, Thurston County Prosecutor Jon Tunheim said Officer Ryan Donald “had an actual, good faith fear that he was being assaulted and that he could suffer serious injury as a result of that assault” during the May 21 encounter in Olympia. “I don’t find any evidence at all that he had a malicious intent or an unlawful intent at the time that he used this force,”

Thurston County Prosecutor Jon Tunheim talks to reporters Wednesday in Olympia.

he said. Tunheim’s decision to not seek criminal charges against the officer comes after the completion of an investigation of the shooting conducted by a team of detectives from several agencies. Donald has been on administrative leave since the shooting that

injured Bryson Chaplin, 21, and Andre Thompson, 24. “But for the hostile acts of Mr. Chaplin and Mr. Thompson, these shootings would not have occurred,” Tunheim said. The men will appear in court Sept. 22. Chaplin has been charged with two counts of felony assault

against Donald, and one count of misdemeanor assault against a Safeway clerk he is accused of throwing beer at. Thompson has been charged with two counts of felony assault against Donald. The men’s attorney, David Beninger, has previously said Chaplin is paralyzed from the waist down. Beninger did not respond to an email seeking comment about the charges against his client. Donald, who is white, encountered the two men, brothers who are both black, after being called in on a report of an attempt to steal beer from a grocery store by two men carrying skateboards. Police officials have said race was not a factor, but the shooting set off protests in Olympia. Saxon Rodgers, an attorney for Donald, said his client was elated by the

news, but he’s upset that he’s been portrayed as a racist. “He shot these people because they attacked him,” Rodgers said. In a written statement offered to investigators, Donald said that one of the men, who was later identified as Chaplin, repeatedly used his skateboard in a threatening manner when Donald encountered the two men. After an initial round of shots near his patrol car in which he said one of the men tried to pull him down, he later approached the men again, at which point he said they repeatedly ignored his commands to stop as they approached him, with one again holding a skateboard above his head. “Due to the suspect’s quick actions, I was unable to back away, and felt my drawn firearm to be the

only reasonably effective use of force to stop the threat, knowing the skateboard has the potential to cause serious injury at the least,” he wrote. After Chaplin was on the ground, Donald wrote that Thompson aggressively approached him and wouldn’t stop, causing him to again fire. Donald will remain on administrative leave while Olympia Police Department conducts an internal review, officials said. Nat Jackson, a citizen who spoke to media after the news conference, said that while he supports law enforcement, he has questions about how this shooting happened. “I have a very difficult time understanding how this could become this kind of case,” he said. “My sense of justice in this case hasn’t been met.”

about 35 miles from Everett. When Bayless asked the woman what she wanted, the patient said she simply wanted to die at home. “I felt in my heart this is it,” Bayless said of the mission of a hospice program. “We just started on a shoestring.” The idea for an inpatient hospice center was first suggested by Bayless in 2003, during a celebration of the hospice organization’s 25th anniversary. “My favorite recollection of Sister Georgette is wearing a hard hat and challenging people to get working” on the project, said Dr. Art Gerdes, a radiation oncologist who served as one of the local hospice program’s founding members. In 2009, the hospice program was on the verge of buying a 2-acre site in south Everett where an in-patient hospice center would be built. But those plans were dashed by the recession. Nevertheless, Bayless and other supporters never gave up. “We had

the vision,” Bayless aid. “We didn’t let it go.” The opening of Providence’s $460 million medical tower in 2011 freed up space on its Colby Campus that eventually was designated for the inpatient hospice program. By last year, donations to the hospice project totaled $2.4 million. That number has now grown to $4.2 million. Fundraising continues to cover the $5.3 million cost of beginning the in-patient hospice program. Bayless, 93, said she looks forward to being able to provide hospice patients the care they need in the new in-patient hospice unit. She said she’s happy the opening is just months away, but after years of it being needed but remaining an elusive dream, she’s anxious for the program to begin. “Let’s get the show on the road,” she said. “We want to open the doors for those people.” Sharon Salyer: 425-3393486; salyer@heraldnet. com

If he joined the field and made environmental issues the rallying cry of his candidacy it would energize throngs of young voters in the party’s base who are not all that

On Saturday, people can see flying vintage planes, warbirds and helicopters. Those who sign up for an annual museum membership can go for a ride. Several former U.S. Navy pilots will be talking Saturday about their experiences with the airplanes during WWII, including Lt. James Whitman, 98; Capt. Greg Lambert, 90; Lt. Cmdr. Bill Anderson, 90; and Johnny Oberto, 93. Oberto joined the Navy at 19 as a seaman secondclass and was placed into advanced flight training. He was assigned to Floyd Bennett Field in Brooklyn, New York, to test airplanes for several manufacturers as they rolled off assembly lines and to deliver them to combat squadrons. Oberto said he always

There is money to support a candidate in order to elevate those issues.” There’s time to forge an impression in Iowa and snag enough delegates to become part of the campaign conversation, Wilson contended. Here’s how Wilson said

did a careful inspection and prepared for the unexpected before a flight. “You never know what you’ll find on a new aircraft,” he said. “We had problems. We had crashes.” On one of his close calls, Oberto had agreed to give a young man a ride home to visit his mother in San Diego aboard a torpedo bomber, the “Avenger.” But somewhere over the desert, there was an explosion and gas started splattering on the windshield. Oberto couldn’t land

it could work: In each Iowa precinct, candidates are awarded delegates in rough proportion to their election results as long as they get at least 15 percent of the votes in that precinct. Perform well in the three dozen counties where the majority of Iowa’s Democratic voters live and voila, a presidential contender is born. The ingredients for such success would be an organized campaign plus a disciplined candidate and

When he didn’t see a parachute or hear a response from his passenger on the headset, Oberto decided to try to make it to El Paso to land. “I thought, ‘I’m not going to bail and leave him back there. I’d never be able to live with myself,’” he said. Once they landed, Oberto said, he opened the back of the airplane. The young man’s face was as “white as a ghost.” He told the pilot he didn’t bail

Saturday’s lineup will include stories about the history of United Airlines by Boeing archivist Mike Lombardi and live music, street food, a military vehicle encampment, vintage automobiles and other attractions.

More teacher strikes looming in Seattle, Spokane Associated Press

SEATTLE — As Pasco teachers walked the picket lines for a second day Wednesday, a series of marathon contract negotiations in Spokane may be moving school employees closer to an agreement, while Seattle teachers are heading toward a strike vote Thursday.

No more negotiation sessions have been scheduled in advance of Thursday’s Seattle Education Association meeting in Seattle. Teachers already have gone back to school in the state’s largest school district, but Seattle’s nearly 53,000 students aren’t due to arrive until Wednesday. A spokesman for the statewide Washington Education Association said union and district

bargainers have scheduled a meeting Friday with a state mediator. So even if Seattle teachers vote to strike Thursday, they still could reach an agreement before a walkout affects the start of school. Talks between the district and teachers ended Tuesday evening. District spokeswoman Stacy Howard said the district wanted to continue bargaining

families whose situations have changed and they need assistance,” Laird Burris said. During the past academic year, 3,170 students were helped, she said. The goal is to give every boy three pairs of jeans or long pants, and every girl two pairs of long pants or jeans, one skirt and one dress. “In addition, every student should have access to a warm winter coat, four pairs of new underwear, four pairs of new socks and one pair of shoes,” she said. With all of that going out, Clothes For Kids needs donations coming in. Students being helped range in age from preschool through high school seniors. Especially needed are new or gently used jeans in all sizes, new boys’ underwear, and boys’ shoes, Laird Burris said. She hopes church groups and other organizations will consider holding clothing drives to benefit Clothes for Kids. “The majority of our families are working families.

EVERETT — Police are investigating a stabbing that occurred shortly before noon Wednesday in or near Forest Park in Everett. The victim, whose age was not available, was taken to the hospital with injuries that were not believed to be life-threatening. A police dog was used to search for the suspect, who could not be found, Everett police officer Aaron Snell said.

Arlington: No new information in wife’s shooting An Arlington-area woman, 61, is recovering after being shot by her husband at their home Saturday. The man, 63, shot himself in the head hours later and died, the Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed Wednesday. There is no new information from the investigation, the sheriff’s office said. Police were called to the home on Highway 9 north of Arlington just after 5 p.m. The woman was rushed to a hospital. A SWAT team spent most of the evening trying to get the man to surrender. At about 11:30 p.m., they heard a single gunshot from inside the house.

Lynnwood: Townhouse fire A fire caused more than $85,000 damage and displaced a couple from their townhouse north of Lynnwood on Tuesday evening. Neighbors called 911 around 6:15 p.m. to report

representatives for all the employees in the state’s second largest school district say negotiations for seven bargaining units are down to one issue: pay. The Spokane Education Association, which represents all school employees, not just teachers, decided last week that it would go on strike Friday if they have not reached a tentative agreement with the school district by 7 a.m. that day.

Give, receive The nonprofit Clothes For Kids provides school clothes to Snohomish County students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. Donations may be brought year-round to a bin at the facility’s back door, 16725 52nd Ave. W., Suite B, Lynnwood. For a donation receipt, bring items to the back door between 9 a.m. and noon Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, or from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Suspect sought in stabbing

Educators, Greg Olson, said the main concern is over who will write district curriculum. Other issues to reaching a contract include class sizes and teacher pay.

smoke coming from a townhouse in a four-unit building in the 13700 block of 26th Place W in unincorporated Snohomish County. “Black smoke was coming from the building and flames were visible inside when firefighters arrived,” said Leslie Hynes, a Snohomish County Fire District 1 spokeswoman. The couple was away at the time of the fire. Their three cats died. People were able to get out safely from the other units. Firefighters from District 1, Lynnwood and Mukilteo stopped the fire before it spread to other units. There were no injuries. “The fire damage was contained to the kitchen and dining area, but there was heavy smoke damage throughout the unit,” Hynes said. The residents were renters and did not have insurance. The Snohomish County Chapter of the American Red Cross was providing assistance. An investigator from the Snohomish County Fire Marshal’s Office determined the fire started in the clothes dryer, which had been running while the residents were away.

Crash victim I.D.’d The Snohomish County Medical Examiner’s Office has identified a woman who was killed in a twocar crash in Lynnwood last month. Zhi P. Guan, 47, died in the Aug. 22 crash in the 18200 block of 36th Avenue W. Two other people were injured. Guan was a passenger in a car that was turning left into an apartment complex, police said. The car was struck by a southbound vehicle. Guan was ejected and died at the scene. From Herald staff reports

Senators back Iran deal The Washington Post WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama scored a major foreign policy victory Wednesday after securing enough votes in the Senate to preserve the nuclear deal with Iran, which has come under intense criticism from Republicans and some Democrats. The agreement to curb Iran’s nuclear ambitions, struck by international negotiators in Vienna in July, was the subject of an intense lobbying campaign in recent weeks by both the administration and the deal’s opponents in advance of an expected vote as early as next week on a resolution to block the deal’s implementation. Sen. Barbara Mikulski, D-Maryland, on Wednesday said she will back the agreement, making her the 34th

senator to pledge support for the Iran deal in the Senate. This means that opponents will not be able to collect the two-thirds supermajority vote needed to override Obama’s promised veto of any legislative attempt to dismantle the nuclear pact. “No deal is perfect, especially one negotiated with the Iranian regime. I have concluded that this Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action is the best option available to block Iran from having a nuclear bomb,” Mikulski said. In recent weeks, all eyes have been focused on about a dozen undecided senators — including Mikulski — whose votes were seen as potentially making or breaking the deal. The pressure on those lawmakers has been intense, as the deal’s champions and detractors have wielded everything from entreaties to campaign threats

in trying to win their votes. The announcement by Mikulski, who is retiring at the end of next year and does not need to worry about political blowback, gives her still-undeclared colleagues cover to state their positions without worrying about the responsibility — or political fallout — of becoming the senator to clinch the deal. Congress secured an unorthodox role for itself in the negotiations earlier this year by passing legislation demanding a chance for lawmakers to review the accord that the United States, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany were negotiating with Iran to rein in Tehran’s nuclear development program. The deal they struck trades promises from Iran to mothball centrifuges, cut enriched-uranium stockpiles and accept tight

oversight in exchange for a stage-by-stage lifting of sanctions that have hamstrung the Iranian economy. The president’s win is stinging defeat for the lobbying groups and lawmakers opposing the deal, who spent countless hours and millions of dollars to block its implementation. Since the agreement was reached in July, they have complained that it doesn’t do enough to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon and, at best, only delays its pathway to becoming an armed nuclear state. Even those on the fence have openly worried that Iran might funnel some of the money that gets pumped back into its economy after sanctions are lifted into nefarious activities, including funding groups that pose a direct threat to Israel.

WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden on Wednesday embarked on a series of public and private stops from the Southeast to the Rust Belt that may provide him key feedback on how much appetite exists in the Democratic Party for him to challenge Hillary Clinton for the nomination. In his first political road trips since speculation heated up that he will run for president, Biden will be promoting

WASHINGTON — A former State Department staffer who worked on Hillary Clinton’s private e-mail server tried this week to fend off a subpoena to testify before Congress, saying he would assert his constitutional right not to answer questions to avoid incriminating himself. The move by Bryan Pagliano, who had worked on Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign before setting up the server in her New York home in 2009, came in a Monday letter from his lawyer to the House panel investigating the 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. The FBI is investigating whether Clinton’s system may have jeopardized sensitive national security information.

Arizona: Air conditioning A savage storm with wind, rain and lightning that damaged buildings, knocked down trees, utility poles and power lines added up to sweaty predicaments for many Phoenix residents. For those without power for extended periods, the late-summer outages meant no air conditioning at home, forcing them to head to coffee shops or the homes of friends or relatives. The high temperature was 99 on Tuesday, the day after the storm struck Monday night. Arizona Public Service Co. and Salt Project between them had 70,000 customers without power immediately after the storm.

The Army announced Wednesday it is opening its legendary Ranger School to women on a full-time basis, after the historic graduation last month of two female soldiers. The school, with headquarters at Fort Benning, Georgia, has been a centerpiece of the military’s ongoing research on integrating women into more jobs in combat units. Capt. Kristen Griest, 26, a military policy officer, and 1st Lt. Shaye Haver, 25, an Apache helicopter pilot, became the first women to graduate from school Aug. 21, after spending months alongside men enduring the grueling training.

pose a threat or resist officers. Spence said Patel was knocked down, then handcuffed and the cuffs were taken off when it became clear that he was hurt. Video, which was slowed down and enlarged for jurors, was shown in court while Spence was on the witness stand. In the video, Patel can be seen turning his head toward Parker just before he was knocked down. Before and after the takedown, officers are heard several times trying unsuccessfully to communicate with Patel, who had repeatedly said “No English.” Parker and his attorney, Robert Tuten, have said Patel repeatedly tried jerking away from officers and reached for his pockets. Patel denied those claims through his interpreter and said he stopped when officers ordered him to because he heard them shout — not because he understood what they were saying. Patel also said officers “checked his pants” before he was slammed down. Police were called after a neighbor reported a thin black man walking around looking at houses. Spence said he initially

passed Patel and kept looking for a black man who fit the description. Prosecutors dismissed the defense’s argument that the use of force was justified. They noted that officers were seeking a person based on a vague description and that Patel wasn’t engaged in any criminal activity. “We could imagine some ghastly scenarios, right?” prosecutor Robert Posey asked after Tuten mentioned hypothetical situations a suspicious person could have been involved in. “But that doesn’t mean you get to treat everybody like a home invasion killer,” Posey said. Police are trained to be suspicious and must always expect the worst, Tuten said. He called Patel’s injuries unfortunate and characterized the encounter as an escalation of police tactics, not a criminal offense. “They say excessive force, Officer Parker says reasonable under the circumstances,” Tuten said, later adding. “It’s unfortunate that Mr. Patel doesn’t speak English. It’s also unfortunate that Mr. Parker doesn’t speak Hindi.” Patel, a farmer from Gujarat,

India, speaks Gujarati. His son, Chirag Patel, said he spent the past nine years working to bring his parents to the U.S. Chirag Patel said he hadn’t thought of telling his father to carry identification during his usual morning walks strolling down the block and back. The elder man, who is now undergoing physical rehabilitation, has since been joined by his wife and now lives in Alabama with his son. Parker is being fired by the city of Madison but has appealed and the termination process is on hold until criminal charges are resolved. Court documents show Madison Police Chief Larry Muncey is expected to testify for prosecutors that Parker’s actions violated department procedures. He publicly apologized to Patel. Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley called Patel’s treatment a case of “excessive force” in an apologetic letter to the Indian government. Parker also faces a state assault charge. Patel filed a federal lawsuit seeking an unspecified amount of money for his injuries.

Clinton staffer gets subpoena on server

D.C.: Ranger policy change

Associated Press HUNTSVILLE, Ala. — An Indian man left partially paralyzed when he was slammed to the ground during a police stop in Alabama testified Wednesday that he’d been in the state only about a week when he was confronted by officers investigating a call about a suspicious person. Sureshbhai Patel, 58, was pushed in a wheelchair to the witness stand in U.S. District Court in Huntsville, where he testified through an interpreter against Officer Eric Parker during the opening day of testimony. Parker is accused of violating Patel’s civil rights during the police stop Feb. 6 in Madison, a suburban city of about 46,500 just west of Huntsville. Patel recounted how he was staying with his son on a visit from India and had been out for a morning walk in the neighborhood when police approached. He said he doesn’t speak English and couldn’t understand the orders police gave him. Cameras in patrol cars recorded the scene as Parker swept one of his legs in front of Patel, slamming him to the ground. “My two hands, my two legs they all became cold and numb,” Patel said, through an interpreter. Patel later recalled that he couldn’t stand after officers tried lifting him up. Patel’s family has said he still has trouble walking and that the family faces hundreds of thousands of dollars in medical bills. Madison police officer Charles Spence testified Wednesday morning that Parker had Patel’s hands behind his back when he arrived and that he didn’t think Patel needed to be detained because he didn’t appear to

President Barack Obama’s policies and raising money for other Democrats. People familiar with his schedule said he isn’t setting up donor meetings related to his possible run. Still, the vice president’s itinerary will connect him with hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of players whose reactions to him may shape whether he decides to get into the race. In coming days, Biden will be in front of Jewish activists, Florida donors, young voters and organized

labor — all key Democratic constituencies. “There are a lot of people who want to hear what the vice president says,” said Andrew Weinstein, a Jewish community leader and major Democratic fundraiser from Florida who plans to attend a Thursday gathering in Davie, where Biden will discuss the Iran nuclear deal. “Certainly there’s national interest in the fact the vice president is traveling to arguably the most significant swing state in the

country during the period where he’s deciding what he wants to do but I think that’s primarily coincidence and not by design.” Thursday, Biden will travel to Atlanta to speak on the topic of “Challenges Facing the U.S. and the World in the 21st Century.” Monday, Biden is scheduled to travel to Pittsburgh to participate in one of the nation’s largest Labor Day gatherings, which AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka also will attend.

Five Chinese warships moved into the Bering Sea near Alaska after participating in a naval exercise with Russia, but officials said they don’t view the ships as a threat as President Barack Obama travels in Alaska near the Arctic Circle. A White House spokesman said the Defense Department “positively identified a number of Chinese naval vessels in that region, but based on their analysis they have not detected any sort of threat or threatening activities.”

R. Island: Fox News suit An anchor for Fox News is suing Hasbro for more than $5 million over a toy hamster that shares her name — and possibly even her resemblance. Harris Faulkner sued Hasbro this week over its plastic Harris Faulkner hamster, sold as part of the Pawtucket company’s popular “Littlest Pet Shop” line. She said the toy wrongfully appropriates her name and persona, harms her professional credibility as a journalist and is an insult. Faulkner has been at Fox News for a decade. She is seeking $5 million in damages.

Japan: Whale hunt planned Japan will hunt whales off the island of Hokkaido this week with plans to catch up to 51 minke despite international criticism, the government said Wednesday. The Fisheries Agency said the coastal whaling is aimed at contributing to resource management by looking into whale’s ecology through analysis of such things as stomach contents and organs.

1st Security buys four branches The Mountlake Terrace bank acquires locations in Port Angeles, Sequim, Port Townsend and Port Hadlock. By Jim Davis The Herald Business Journal

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE — First Security Bank of Washington announced Tuesday that it has entered into an agreement with Bank of America to purchase four bank branches on the Olympic Peninsula. The branches are in Port Angeles, Sequim, Port Townsend and

Port Hadlock. The locations have $268 million in deposits and less than $1 million in loans, according to a news release from 1st Security Bank. First Security Bank is headquartered in Mountlake Terrace and has been in operation since 1936. It currently has seven branches, including a new branch that it just opened in Mill Creek.

“We believe this will be a great fit and is a natural extension of our Puget Sound-focused retail footprint,” said Joe Adams, 1st Security Bank’s CEO, in a statement. The purchase is subject to receiving regulatory approvals, and customary closing conditions. Under the agreement, 1st Security Bank will assume certain liabilities, including checking, savings, IRAs and CDs belonging to households and small business customers who live in the local area.

First Security Bank will be acquiring all four retail locations, including their ATMs. Two branch properties are owned and two branch properties are leased with 1st Security Bank assuming the leases. Both banks are working closely together to ensure a seamless transition for the customers and employees. 1st Security Bank plans to retain the employees and keep each of the locations open after the transaction is complete. The transaction is scheduled to close in January 2016.

economic disruption in China. The volume of loans that were written off in the second quarter fell $1.1 billion, or 11.2 percent, from the same period last year. The rate of those loans declined from 0.5 percent to 0.42 percent, the lowest level since the third quarter of 2006. Charged-off loans were down for all major categories except commercial and industrial loans, and auto loans, the FDIC reported. Also, the amount of noncurrent loans, those 90 days or more past due, continued to improve. Lending overall grew by 5.4 percent, a sign of a healthy banking industry. The number of banks on the FDIC’s confidential “problem

list” fell to 228 from 253 in the first quarter. Community banks scored strong earnings growth in the second quarter, surging 12 percent from the same period last year to $5.3 billion. They continued to show stronger growth in lending than the rest of the industry, the FDIC said. The number of bank failures continues to slow, marking 18 last year. That is still more than normal. In a strong economy, an average of four or five banks closes annually. But failures declined from 24 in 2013 and were down sharply from 157 in 2010 — the most in one year since the height of the savings and loan

crisis in 1992. So far this year, six banks have failed. Fourteen had been shuttered by this time last year. The decline in bank failures has allowed the deposit insurance fund to strengthen. The fund, which turned from deficit to positive in the second quarter of 2011, had a $67.6 billion balance at the end of June, according to the FDIC. That was up from $65.3 billion at the end of the first quarter. The FDIC was created during the Great Depression to insure bank deposits. It monitors and examines the financial condition of U.S. banks. The agency guarantees bank deposits up to $250,000 per account.

Private sector adds 190,000 new positions Hiring by U.S. firms picked up last month as the private sector added 190,000 net new jobs, payroll firm Automatic Data Processing said Wednesday. The job growth was an improvement over July’s 177,000 figure, which was revised down from the initial report of 185,000. But the August figure was below analyst expectations of about 210,000 net new private-sector jobs. Still, the job creation was solid, said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, which assists ADP in preparing the report. “Recent global financial market turmoil has not slowed the U.S. job market, at least not yet,” Zandi said. “Job growth remains strong and broadbased, except in the energy industry, which continues to shed jobs.”

$10 million in grants for railroad crossings

Associated Press WASHINGTON — U.S. banks’ earnings jumped 7.3 percent in the April-June period from a year earlier as revenues increased and the volume of soured loans banks had to write off fell to the lowest level since before the financial crisis. The data issued Wednesday by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. showed continued improvement for the banking industry seven years after the crisis struck. The number of “problem” banks continued to fall and some big banks had reduced expenses for legal settlements after large amounts paid out previously to resolve crisis-related cases. The FDIC reported that U.S. banks earned $43 billion in the second quarter, up from $40.1 billion a year earlier. Nearly 60 percent of banks reported an increase in profit from a year earlier. Only 5.6 percent of banks were unprofitable. “The banking industry had another positive quarter as recent trends have continued,” said FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg. Still, he noted, low interest rates continued to crimp banks’ profit margins on loans during the April-June period. Higher interest rates could be on the horizon if the Federal Reserve raises a key rate later this month. An increase by the Fed has been widely anticipated, but it has been thrown in doubt in recent weeks by global turmoil in stock markets fueled by

U.S. transportation officials on Wednesday offered $10 million in grants for states to upgrade highway-rail crossings and tracks in response to a recent surge in flammable fuel shipments. The announcement from the U.S. Department of Transportation comes as rail crossing collisions have increased over the past several years, following more than three decades of steady declines. The grants would pay for improvements along rail routes that transport flammable fuels. Shipments of crude oil and ethanol increased dramatically over the past decade before energy prices plummeted.

Water bottler faces drought fines Regulators have ordered a water bottling company to stop tapping Sierra Nevada spring water during the California drought. The state water board said Wednesday that the owner of Sugar Pine Spring Water has refused to show them his operations behind locked gates in Tuolumne County. The company could face a fine of $225,000 after being accused of tapping springs in the Tuolumne River watershed after its water rights were curtailed during the drought. State investigators said in a complaint that surveillance cameras outside the business have recorded tanker truck traffic.

Lululemon: Should yoga pants hug you? The Washington Post Lululemon customers will soon face a potentially awkward question when choosing workout pants: Do you want to feel “hugged” or merely “held-in”? The retailer, which helped make workout clothes an acceptable everyday outfit, rolled out a revamp of its women’s workout bottoms this week. All bottoms will now be categorized by “engineered sensations,” or how much they squeeze your body (known as “compression” in Lululemon’s lingo). The loosest pants are designed with lounging and yoga in mind; the tightest are meant for runners. The update to its signature item, yoga pants, is yet another effort by the retailer based in Vancouver, B.C., to beat back rising competition and reconnect

Lululemon’s “All The Right Places” workout pants.

with customers still weary after the company’s 2013 recall of see-through pants.

The new pants categories have whimsical names — relaxed, naked, held-in,

hugged and tight — and are accompanied by some lofty promises. In press materials, the held-in pants are said to have “strategically-placed zoning that keeps you feeling secure through your abs, hips, bum and thighs.” The traditional Lululemon fit is now called hugged and “engineered to feel like a comfortable embrace” — perhaps a dramatic description for garments that are destined to end up drenched in sweat. Antonia Iamartino, Lululemon’s design director of future concepts, said that the refresh was designed to solve a problem that she noticed when spending time with customers in stores. “They would take leggings into the changing room and they would come out, and I’d look at it and say, ‘Actually, this is a little big for you. It’s kind of baggy in the knees, the

waistband isn’t fitting the way it should. You actually probably want to go down a size.’ And the guest would say, ‘I just don’t want something that feels this tight.’ ” In the new lineup, getting looser pants shouldn’t require going up to a larger size, it should mean finding a pant in the same size that simply is constructed differently. In order to achieve this new range of compression, the retailer said it is introducing a new type of fabric it calls Nulu, which allows for a looser fit. This comes as the retailer is still trying to shake the bad publicity from the 2013 recall. It has also struggled to update its supply chain and quickly get new items into stores to better compete with a fresh crop of athleisure retailers that are churning out trendy pieces on a tight schedule. And Lululemon’s new strategy, of course, could

backfire. The retailer risks confusing shoppers with all of its new pants offerings, said Liz Dunn, chief executive of retail consultancy Talmage Advisors . “I understand what they’re trying to do, I get what the goal is. But it does seem to add a layer of confusion,” Talmage said. “And to me, it suggests they’re still experiencing a bit of pushback about people’s perception of the quality of their pants.” But Lululemon says it is ready to explain “sensations” and the difference between being tight and simply hugged. “We’ve done a great amount of training with our educators, and they’re all ready and up to speed to be able to have these conversations around feeling — which, it is a new conversation, and we are shifting that,” Iamartino said.

Professionals on tap for best salary boost in 8 years Bloomberg News Even as the landscape for wages looks bleak, at least one rung of the compensation ladder is doing just fine. And 2016 may be even better. White-collar workers will get the biggest pay boost in eight years as employers compete for the best and brightest in America, according to staffing firm Robert Half. The 4.1 percent average advance for U.S. starting salaries across the five professional fields tracked by the company would follow a 3.8 percent projected gain in 2015. That’s a big contrast

If they’re really in demand, they’re getting 15 to 20 percent more. — Paul McDonald, Robert Half director

with average hourly earnings, which have been mired in a measly 2 percent range since the recession ended in mid2009. The pay data from the Labor Department span the nation’s workers across a spectrum of occupations and education levels. Meanwhile, the Robert Half survey is based on more than 1,000

professionals and covers more than 750 roles, most of which require at least a bachelor’s degree and possibly certification. It tracks technology, finance and accounting, legal, creative and marketing, and administrative and office support services occupations. Here’s what workers eyeing higher pay should take note of:

A skills premium

to make employees stay.

In fields such as mobile or compliance and security, there’s more demand for talent than there are people to supply it. Wireless networking engineers will see a 9.7 percent jump in their starting salaries, topping all positions in the survey. “If they’re really in demand, they’re getting 15 to 20 percent more” than what’s predicted, said Paul McDonald, senior executive director at Robert Half. Employers are also responding to a shortage of good talent by offering sweeter perks-flexible hours, more vacation time, even counter-offers

Don’t ignore big data if you want a big raise A big data engineer could snag a starting pay of $129,500 to $183,500, an 8.9 percent jump from 2015. Mobile applications developer, data security analyst, user experience specialist and business systems analyst-manager are also in the top 10 roles to watch. A certified medical coding manager, another hot job, may bring in as much as $96,250 in 2016, a 4.8 percent increase from this year. This burgeoning field in part reflects changes in

the health-care industry, such as the upcoming U.S. move toward using the latest international classification of diseases. “It’s snuck up,” McDonald said. “A lot of people are surprised at how many jobs it’ll create.”

Look for a new job Those not in accounting or tech can also take heart from some brandnew job descriptions that have cropped up for the 2016 salary guide, such as data scientists and visual designers-workers who can deliver designs across the Internet, mobile, tablet and other platforms.

No option to reject one’s duty A member of an apostolic church, Davis said she would be in violation of her beliefs as a Christian if she issued a marriage license to a gay or lesbian couple. “I never imagined a day like this would come, where I would be asked to violate a central teaching of Scripture and of Jesus Himself regarding marriage,” she said in a statement. Even before the landmark Supreme Court ruling that opened marriage to samesex couples in all 50 states, the religious liberties of some were clashing with the civil rights of others. A Richland florist, who had refused to provide floral arrangements for a gay couple’s wedding, was fined $1,000 for violating the state’s anti-discrimination law and ordered to provide services for same-sex weddings in the

future. Barronelle Stutzman, 70, has appealed to the state Supreme Court and maintains, like Davis, she’s being asked to do something in defiance of her faith. In April, Indiana adopted the Religious Freedom Restoration Act. Although its governor denied it was not meant to give businesses the right to discriminate against the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community, many in Indiana, including a pizza parlor, said they considered the law the legal authority to refuse service based on a customer’s sexual identity. At the time, asking for some respect of religious beliefs, we wrote: “Unless health or safety are involved or a service isn’t readily available from another more appreciative source, then the florists, bakers and pizzeria owners who object

should be left to do without that customer’s patronage.” The same standard does not apply to Davis and to other government officials like her who refuse to do their duty as public servants. They have taken oaths to uphold state and federal laws. They cannot pick and choose which laws they will recognize and which they will ignore. In this case, it means the law that opened the right to marry to all, straight and gay couples alike. Where Davis’ religious beliefs conflict with the law — and we’re not convinced that issuing a marriage license implies personal approval and sanction of the marriage — then she has a choice to either comply with the law or quit. Like Bartleby, Davis may prefer not to. Unlike Bartleby, under her sworn duty as a clerk, she doesn’t have the option.

Lower parking fee for seniors

Bernie Sanders vs. Donald Trump for president in November 2016? I think that has a very distinct chance of occurring. So many Americans are so sick of life-long politicians running for president with the same old ideals that these two squaring off would be a real breath of fresh air for everyone in America.

This is in regard to the recent article in the paper as to how to increase the attendance at the Monroe Evergreen State Fair. Cut the cost of the $10 parking fee. To do this, the fee should be charged according to age and number of people in the car. If 65 or older, $2.50 off for each person. Anyone else, $1 off. After you are inside, if they would cut the cost of the food by 50 cents, it would help. Next to the parking, the amusement rides are the worst. They could deduct $1 a ride. Just these three things would increase attendance.

Media covering for Clinton The controversy over Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server continues and rightfully so. The David Ignatius column “Clinton not only one with email problem” in Monday’s Herald attempts to make all of her shortcomings in this regard OK because others have done the same thing. No, they have not. None of the people he mentioned set up and used their own private server to conduct their business. Nor did they destroy thousands of emails that had been on their private server for two years after a House committee had subpoenaed them. The latter is clearly obstruction of justice and should be prosecuted. Despite her denials she also sent and received classified or top secret emails on her private system which is against government policy and could have been easily hacked by our enemies. Former CIA director Gen. David Petraeus lost his job and was punished for having taken classified material home with him.

IN OUR VIEW | Kentucky’s reluctant county clerk

“I would prefer not to.” Kim Davis, echoing Herman Melville’s, “Bartleby, the Scrivener,” is the county clerk who has refused to perform a significant part of her job in Rowan County, Kentucky, because she has decided to defy a court order requiring her to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in June. Bartleby, a 19th century copyist in New York, responsible for copying legal documents, frustrates his employer with his preference not to comply when asked to complete tasks. Yet rather than quit, Bartleby continues to show up for work each day. Melville leaves Bartleby’s motivations open to reader interpretation. Davis, at least, is clearer about her reasons for refusing to do her job.

Sanders will act on racial issues Yes, black lives do matter. The question is: What does it take to keep young, black men alive? There are times when noisy demonstrations and protests are needed — when an important issue is submerged in ignorance or deliberate obfuscation. But in this case, a few trigger-happy police officers have already caught and focused our attention. In the matter at hand, the present need is for organization and strategy. Medgar Evers understood that; so, on a different plane, did Thurgood Marshall. And so, of course, did Martin Luther King Jr.. Discomfiting one’s allies is counterproductive. Of all the declared candidates, Sen. Bernie Sanders is, based on his record, the likeliest to act decisively in behalf of this cause, especially if its defenders are serious, not just noisy. Lyman H.

It’s in our best interests to save past and future

hy should people care about the past or the future? That may sound like a perverse question, but it’s at the center of two recent stories — one involving the Islamic State’s destruction of antiquities at Palmyra in Syria, and the other a presidenDAVID IGNATIUS tial warning about damage to the planet decades hence. The unpleasant, amoral question usually doesn’t get asked: Why should people give a hoot about their ancestors or descendants? What constrains us from simply acting selfishly? Certainly, we don’t have any formal obligation to preserve old relics, unless they’re protected by law. And in the march of progress, we frequently bulldoze old structures and barely notice. As for the environment, why shouldn’t people maximize their self-interest today, even if it harms the welfare of descendants most of us will never meet? The cult of self-interest occasionally seems like an article of the Bill of Rights. But it’s likely that we’re programmed, as a species and a republic, to be more generous. Parents care about their children (and vice versa) because it helps us survive. Let’s look at the recent examples that test the proposition. On Aug. 25, Islamic State activists posted on social media photographs of what they claimed was the destruction of the “Temple of Baal Shamin” in the nearly 2,000-year-old Roman city of Palmyra. The photos showed two fighters carrying a barrel of explosives into the temple, charges placed astride three ancient columns, and then a mushroom cloud of debris. A ghastly satellite image was released Tuesday by a United Nations agency, confirming this assault on history. Maamoun Abdulkarim, the head of Syria’s department of antiquities and museums, told BBC Radio that the action was a “catastrophe” and that he was “very sad and very pessimistic” for the future of the site. The Islamic State militants didn’t explain their actions. But past statements have indicated that they view such ruins as creations of a polytheistic religion and culture they reject. This disregard for the heritage of “others” is sadly not a unique view: During the centuries of European exploration and colonization, many native shrines and artifacts around the globe were destroyed. The United Nations today designates World Heritage sites (such as Palmyra) in part to assert universal standards for preservation. President Obama this week invoked our responsibility to be unselfish about the future. In a speech Monday in Alaska he painted what The Associated Press called a “doomsday scenario” if climate-change trends aren’t reversed: “More drought; more floods; rising sea levels; greater migration; more refugees; more scarcity; more conflict. ... We will condemn our children to a planet beyond their capacity to repair.” A confirmed advocate of self-interest might respond: Well, my children will just have to cope. This sensibility is implicit in arguments that the welfare of the living should take precedence over the state of the planet in an unknowable future. But do Americans really believe in this radical version of selfishness? There’s considerable scholarship arguing the opposite. As my colleague Steven Pearlstein argues in a chapter titled “Is Greed Good?” in a forthcoming book, we’re programmed for intergenerational fairness and generosity. Indeed, our republic was founded as a commonwealth, to protect values that were taken to be “self-evident.” Every officeholder takes a vow to “preserve, protect and defend” the nation. “The only pure individualists are hermits,” argues Joshua Greene in his recent book, “Moral Tribes.” He asks: “Why should any creature be social? Why not just go it alone? The reason is that individuals can sometimes accomplish things together that they can’t accomplish by themselves. This principle has guided the evolution of life on earth from the start.” Part of why the United States has been so successful is that Americans are not just greedy. They cooperate. They build roads and airports and cyberspace that can be shared. They provide for the common defense. As Pearlstein observes, history teaches us that societies like ours, which temper raw greed with collective values, do better than those that don’t. When we feel a revulsion at the destruction of the past or a threat to the future, what we are really affirming is human survival. David Ignatius’ email address is davidignatius@washpost.com.

Salmon spawns on President Obama’s shoes Associated Press DILLINGHAM, Alaska — This oh-my moment was nowhere on the official schedule for President Barack Obama’s visit to Alaska: salmon spawning on his shoes. “You see that?” Obama declared Wednesday as he gripped a fish with two hands. “Something’s got on my shoes. ... Generally you don’t want fish spawning on your feet. He said he was happy to see me.” Visiting an isolated fishing village on a grey, overcast day, the president was full of admiration for the whole operation:

He pronounced salmon jerky “really good,” tried unsuccessfully to scare up a knife so he could attempt to filet a fish, and carefully inspected smokehouse drying racks. The president, wearing orange rubber gloves, held up a large silver salmon for reporters to admire but hastened to add: “I didn’t catch it. I don’t want anybody thinking I’m telling, you know, fish tales.” He listened intently as a woman holding her own wiggly fish nonchalantly explained the fishing process. As for the souvenir can of fish he received, Obama

instructed aides not to go eating it. Before leaving Dillingham, the president attended a cultural performance at a local school, where youngsters in traditional headdresses with jewels and fur waved their hands in the air and slapped their thighs as they danced and chanted. Obama joined in on the last dance, declaring, “I’ve been practicing.” The president’s visit to the fishing operation came with a serious goal of promoting the importance of environmental protection.

Many Snohomish County high schools have Link Crew programs. Lake Stevens started its program three years ago. Shaelyn Huot and Ryann Funk, now seniors, were part of the first sophomore class to be welcomed by the program. Now they are Link Crew leaders. “I was really scared when I came into high school as a sophomore and this whole Link Day gave me a sigh of relief,” Funk said. “It’s fun to come back to something like this. This school is one of the best, and Viking pride is the greatest.” Huot remembers feeling comfortable after her Link Day a couple of years ago. She wants to pay it forward and let new students know that Lake Stevens High School is a family and they always have someone to turn to. “I feel like communication is key with this because if sophomores feel comfortable this year they’re more likely to do well all of their years,” she said.

and Stanwood-Camano students also are back in class. Everett, Edmonds, Marysville, Monroe, Arlington, Snohomish, Lakewood, Sultan, Darrington and Index schools start next week. The first day of school is an important time, Lake Stevens High School Principal Eric Cahan told his students Wednesday morning. He urged sophomores to close their eyes and picture who they want to be after high school. “This is a special day because this is the day all those dreams start,” he said.

Heading into the new school year, Link leader Huot was excited. She’ll miss sleeping in on summer mornings but can’t wait for her AP Physics class or the upcoming tennis season. She had one key piece of advice to share with every student heading back to school this week or next. “Try new things,” Huot said. “Don’t leave anything you might want to do undone. Just do it.

county to pay more than $250,000 annually to rent space in a future garage, built by the city or another entity. A week ago, the city forwarded the county an agreement on much more favorable terms. Instead of renting garage space, the mayor said the county could comply with parking requirements by removing 105 fleet vehicles from its garage on Oakes Avenue, south of the proposed courthouse. The county also would have been required to discourage employees from parking on nearby streets. City leaders were scheduled to discuss the proposal this week. Lovick said he was mystified about the city’s about-face and leery of Stephanson’s offer, given that “previous assurances from the mayor that we had a deal have not been honored.” “We said we were building a replacement courthouse,” he said. “Our contention from day one was that no additional parking was needed. That was our position then and that’s our position now.” As part of his new recommendation, Lovick suggested the county stop collecting approximately $4 million in annual property taxes that were raised to pay for courthouse construction. The executive wants to use $75 million in bonds already sold to remodel the existing courthouse through moves such as abating asbestos, installing better elevators and making facilities more accessible to people with disabilities. In his press release from Tuesday, Lovick claimed he previously supported a new courthouse on the plaza next to the 1967 building they want to replace. In truth, he declined to make a recommendation in late 2013. That’s when council members settled on a county-owned parking lot across the street. Council members have said Lovick’s administration tried to steer them toward that location. Other unspent courthouse bonds could be used to pay down other debts, saving millions, Lovick said. County Council Chairman Dave Somers said the latest proposals from the executive “don’t make any sense to me.” That’s especially true for the part

about leaving Everett. “They’re really all over the map,” Somers said. “We’ve been told numerous times that going outside of Everett was going to be much more expensive that building across the street, for a number of reasons.” He said he planned to ask Lovick’s staff for an explanation at the next council meeting, scheduled for 10:30 a.m. Tuesday. Somers noted that the talk about giving back taxes comes during election season. He and Lovick are competing for the executive’s job on Nov. 3. Somers said he, too, might support cutting taxes, but he first wants to have “a rational, reasoned decision about the courthouse and then the other things will follow.” The county had been prepared to break ground earlier this summer on the eight-story court building on the north side of Wall Street, between Rockefeller and Oakes avenues. To make way for it, the county used eminent domain to condemn six neighboring businesses, including law offices. One of them belonged to David Jolly, an attorney who specializes in DUI defense. The county told Jolly it was necessary to buy out his recently remodeled building. Though Jolly was paid for real estate and moving costs, last year’s settlement didn’t cover the “six figures” worth of business he’s lost since moving. “If there is no building on that property, they didn’t take it based on public necessity,” he said. “Was it fraud? Or just negligence? Either way, we’ve been impacted for potentially no purpose.” The attorney said it would be illogical to move the courthouse outside of Everett. Not only would it be farther from the county jail, it would force legal services businesses to uproot, leaving downtown “somewhat of a ghost town,” he said. County Councilman Terry Ryan said he can no longer support the project that led the county to buy out Jolly and neighboring business owners. “It’s too expensive and given the current economic climate, we cannot afford it,” Ryan said. “Ultimately, we will probably do something close to the original plan, which is to build an annex building next to the original courthouse. If I had to guess, that’s where I think we’d end up.” Noah Haglund: 425-339-3465; nhaglund@heraldnet.com. Twitter: @NWhaglund.

Feds propose water quality rule for state By Phuong Le Associated Press

SEATTLE — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is following through on its promise to propose a new clean-water rule for Washington, in case the state doesn’t come up with its own plan in time. The EPA plans to officially publish its proposed rule in midSeptember for public review. It posted details on its website Wednesday. “Our preference is to work with states and have them develop standards that are protective,” said Daniel Opalski, who heads the EPA’s regional office of water, based in Seattle. The agency would halt its process “if the state

comes forward and proposes something,” he added. It would take between 8 and 11 months for the EPA to finalize standards for Washington, putting pressure on the state to act during that time, Opalski said. The issue has been a contentious one. Tribes and environmental groups have argued for much stricter rules, while cities, counties and businesses say the technology isn’t available to meet stricter rules and that it could cost billions with little or no benefit to the environment. In early August, the state Department of Ecology was on track to adopt a major rewrite of the state’s clean water rules, often referred to as the “fish consumption rule,” after years of

debate and input from numerous groups. But Gov. Jay Inslee put the rule on hold and directed the state Department of Ecology to reassess its approach. He said lawmakers didn’t pass legislation that he said was essential to tackling water pollution from everyday sources. Under federal law, rivers and other water bodies must be clean enough so people can safely eat fish from those waters. Since 1992, the state has assumed that people consume about 6.5 grams of fish a day, roughly one small fillet a month. The EPA is proposing to dramatically raising the fish consumption rate to 175 grams a day — similar to what Inslee had

The national standard for fish consumption rate is 22 grams a day. Native Americans and Pacific Islanders in the Pacific Northwest consume much higher amounts of fish than elsewhere, and there are unique circumstances here that support a 175 grams a day rate, the EPA’s Opalski said. “By protecting the highest fish consumer, you’re protecting everybody,” Opalski said. Angela Chung, a manager with the EPA’s water quality standards, said it’s rare for the EPA to step in to impose a water quality standard for a state, but it has happened once before in Florida. In that case, the state ultimately submitted its own standards, she said.

proposed a year ago. A higher rate theoretically would mean fewer toxic chemicals would be allowed and tougher permitting rules for facilities that discharge pollutants into state waters. Federal regulators, however, left alone what’s known as the cancer-risk rate — one of many factors in a complicated formula to determine how clean state waters should be. It has been a point of contention. Tribes and environmental groups had pushed to leave it as is. Inslee’s plan had lowered the acceptable cancer risk rate from eating fish from Washington waters from one case in a million to one case per 100,000 — a position supported by some businesses.

Patrols keep boaters in check to protect orcas By Manuel Valdes Associated Press

SAN JUAN ISLANDS, Wash. — Against the backdrop of rocky bluffs, a pod of orcas repeatedly jumped out of the emerald waters of the Puget Sound one recent sunny afternoon before splashing their massive blackand-white bodies back into the water. Shadowing the whales were several recreational and commercial whale watching vessels that ferry people out to watch the orcas breach, which is one of nature’s most impressive spectacles. But the combination of boats and whales has state and federal authorities worried, especially this summer, now that the Southern Resident pod of killer whales has four new calves. So authorities are sending out orca patrols, asking the boats to give the sea mammals enough space. By federal and state law, boaters are required to stay 200 yards parallel from the orcas and give them 400 yards in front. It’s all part of an effort to create conditions that will help the whales restore their numbers. “We approximately do 60 shifts per summer solely dedicated to whale protection,” said Sgt. Russ Mullins of the Washington state department of Fish and Wildlife. The Southern Resident killer whales have lost about 20 percent of their population since the 1990s. Dwindling food sources and contamination are two reasons scientists blame for their decreasing numbers. This particular group of whales, now numbering at 81, is endangered. That’s why the births of four new calves were welcome news. “It’s a little bit of a baby boom,” said Lynne Barre, an orca expert for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. “We still have a lot work to do to get to a fully recovered population.” The patrolling officers mostly warn boaters, opting to educate

skippers about the laws protecting the marine mammals. Over the past two years, officers have given about 10 tickets and 40-50 written warnings, Mullins said. The law enforcement presence in the Puget Sound is being funded by a $1 million grant NOAA gave to the state in 2013. Boats present a host of problems for the whales. “When boats are near the whales, they can change their

said Elizabeth Seely, coordinator of Soundwatch, an educational outreach program from the Whale Museum in Friday Harbor that sends small boats to remind boaters to give whale their space. The museum estimates that about half a million people come to these waters to watch whales every year, generating up to $50 million for the commercial whale watching industry. Authorities say the industry has been doing a good job of

behavior. They feed less often. They swim in less direct patterns. They also increase these highly energetic surface-active behaviors, like breaching and tail slapping,” Barre said. Breaching, one of the main attractions for whale watchers, could be costing them too much energy, Barre said. Other research shows the orcas talk louder when boats are around. “I wouldn’t want to be in a concert all the day long going deaf,”

State sues feds over waste tanks By Gene Johnson The Associated Press

SEATTLE — Washington state is suing the federal government again over cleanup at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation — this time over the danger posed to workers by vapor releases from underground waste-storage tanks. In a federal lawsuit filed Wednesday, state Attorney General Bob Ferguson says the U.S. Department of Energy has known about the problem of vapors sickening workers at the site since the late 1980s, but it hasn’t fixed it. There were more than 50 reports of workers being exposed to vapors between January 2014 and April 2015. “Enough is enough. The health risks are real, and the state is taking action today to ensure the federal government

protects these workers now and in the future,” Ferguson said in a statement. In June, the attorney general said he would oppose a U.S. Department of Energy request to have more time to empty the next group of tanks storing waste at Hanford. Federal officials wanted a oneyear extension on its deadline to retrieve radioactive waste from nine leak-prone tanks, which would give them until to fall 2023 to complete the work. The agency said it needed more time because a recent requirement for air respirators for most workers at the tank farm to protect them against chemical vapors had reduced efficiency by 30 to 70 percent. The 586-square-mile Hanford nuclear site on the Columbia River in eastern Washington was used to produce plutonium for the U.S.

nuclear weapons program from 1943 to 1987. Weapons production left behind large amounts of solid and liquid waste, much of which is radioactive. Washington Assistant Attorney General Andrew Fitz said the state’s job as a Hanford regulator is to hold the Department of Energy accountable, but the history of trying to get tank waste treated for disposal is one of moving deadlines and delays. A 2010 consent decree resolved a lawsuit filed by the state in 2008 when it became apparent that the Department of Energy could not meet deadlines. The consent decree set new deadlines to be enforced by the court. But now most of the remaining deadlines in the consent decree are at serious risk of being missed by the Department of Energy.

self-policing. “We knew you can’t have whale watching if you have no whales,” said Michael Harris, executive director of the Pacific Whale Watch Association, which has 34 members.. So the main focus for officers has been recreational boaters “who either don’t know what the rules are, they don’t know the impact they could potentially have, or they don’t care,” Mullins said.

Firefighters bring Okanogan wildfires slowly under control Associated Press OMAK — Firefighters are starting to get a handle on two giant wildfires burning in northcentral Washington. The largest wildfire in state history, the Okanogan Complex, has now grown to 231 square miles but as Wednesday morning it was 45 percent contained. The Okanogan Complex is being managed as part of one big fire including the 146-square-mile Chelan Complex. The Chelan Complex was 55 percent contained as of Wednesday morning. Nearly 2,000 firefighters are working on the two big fire complexes that have burned more than 140 residences. Many other residents are still under evacuation notices. In Oregon, firefighters

battling a destructive wildfire near John Day are allowing people who have been evacuated for weeks to return to their homes. The fire has destroyed 43 homes and burned more than 165 square miles. It is 52 percent contained. Fire crews in westcentral Idaho were working aggressively to prevent flames from expanding on a 3-week-old blaze that has burned 143 square miles of dry timber. More than 900 firefighters are battling the fire, but it was only 30 percent contained. Crews focused Wednesday on protecting structures along the Salmon River corridor, and rafters were stopped and evacuated before entering the fire perimeter. Idaho has 17 large fires, the most in the nation, the National Interagency Fire Center says.

PREP FOOTBALL PREVIEW | Wesco 3A North & South

‘Get him the ball’

GP’s Justin Guffey was the Wesco 3A’s leading wide receiver in 2014...and now the Grizzlies will focus on getting him the ball.

The youthful forward’s dad along with a number of uncles and cousins all spent time in the NHL.

By Aaron Lommers Herald Writer

SNOHOMISH — Since Glacier Peak High School opened in 2008, head football coach Rory Rosenbach, who is the only head coach in school history, has led the Grizzlies to the playoffs every season. There isn’t much to debate when it comes to the success of his tenure as head coach — Rosenbach is a proven winner. Many would see Glacier Peak wide receiver Justin Guffey’s junior season in 2014 as another example of Rosenbach’s coaching excellence. Guffey caught 43 passes for 732 yards and nine touchdowns, leading Wesco 3A receivers in all three categories. Rather than pat himself on the back, Rosenbach wasn’t satisfied and he pointed the finger directly at himself. “We didn’t get him the damn ball,” Rosenbach said. “We didn’t get him the ball for the first half of the year.” In the second half of the 2014 season, it wasn’t uncommon for Guffey to catch eight to 10 passes a game and rack up 100 yards receiving, but in the first half of the season the Grizzlies had trouble getting the ball into the hands of their playmaker. Rosenbach didn’t place blame and accepted full responsibility. “I’m doing a bad job of calling plays if he’s not getting the ball, so I’ve got to make sure he’s getting the ball,” Rosenbach said. “It’s 100 percent on me,” Rosenbach added. “Get him the ball. It’s stupid. It’s just bad coaching. Get the good kids the ball.” See GRIZZLIES, Page C4

Glacier Peak senior wide receiver Justin Guffey practices punt returns during practice this past Thursday.

Harris is Oak Harbor’s ‘do-it-all’ weapon INSIDE

By Rich Myhre Herald Writer

Oak Harbor wide receiver Dyllan Harris (left) runs with the football during practice. Harris caught 34 passes for 600 yards and seven touchdowns last season.

With the ball in his hands, Dyllan Harris is the kind of football player who makes an impact. And even without the ball, Harris often makes an impact of a different kind. The 6-foot-11⁄2, 185-pound Harris, a senior from Oak Harbor, is one of the top returning wide receivers in the Wesco 3A North. A year ago he helped the Wildcats to the Class 3A state playoffs with 34 receptions for 600 yards and seven touchdowns, with another touchdown on a punt return. But as good as he is with the ball, Harris is just as good helping teammates when they have the ball. He is, said Oak Harbor coach Jay Turner, “flat-out the best blocker on our team. He’s just a tenacious blocker. ...

EVERETT — Riley Sutter was a week old when his father, Ron, played in his 1,000th NHL game in 1999. The elder Sutter retired following the next season, so Riley doesn’t have any memories of his father’s 19-season career in the league. But Riley, a soon-to-be 16-year-old forward for the Everett Silvertips, has arguably the deepest NHL connections of any player on Everett’s roster. Ron was the last of six Sutter brothers to retire from the league after a career that included stops with Philadelphia, St. Louis, Quebec, Boston, San Jose, Calgary and the New York Islanders. Ron’s brothers Brian, Brent, Darryl, Duane and Rich all played in the league, and Darryl is currently the head coach of Los Angeles Kings. “There are definitely lots of stories (when we get together),” Riley Sutter said. “We all click together pretty quick. It’s good to see them and we always have lots of stories to tell.” Riley was the Silvertips’ sixthround pick in the 2014 Bantam Draft and signed his WHL standard player agreement Tuesday. He is the 11th Sutter family member to reach the league across two generations. Cousins Brett, Brandon and Brody all played in the WHL and are current NHL players. “I was hoping to follow the footsteps of my dad and my cousins,” Riley said. Despite not being alive for the majority of his father’s career, Riley has nonetheless spent his life immersed in the sport. According to the Silvertips, he’s believed to be one of just three players still at Everett training camp to have immediate family members who played in the NHL. See SILVERTIPS, Page C2

Former Husky WRs ready to state their case for Seahawks By Nick Patterson Herald Writer

RENTON — Tuesday’s practice was over for the Seattle Seahawks, as most of the players filed toward the locker room from the indoor field at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center. But at least two players weren’t done yet. Kevin Smith, after being pulled aside to record a brief

television interview, trotted back onto the field to field some punts. Meanwhile, Kasen Williams stood a solitary figure in the corner, catching passes from a Jugs machine while using a tackling dummy as a screen. Smith and Williams, the former University of Washington wide receivers, are among those who are fighting for roster spots as the Seahawks

The starters may make a token appearance, but most of the playing time is usually given to the back end of the roster as the staff tries to gather as much information as possible before making decisions on the final few roster spots as they cut down from 75 to 53, as well as who merits a place on the practice squad.

ocal pink salmon action would probably have started switching from saltwater to the Snohomish River over the weekend, if it hadn’t been for lousy weather. Too much rain, too much wind and so much junk coming down the river that it was difficult to keep a lure working. Then there was the commercial opening the middle of last week, with dozens of seiners working on pinks milling off the river mouth. The result, according to Mike Chamberlain at Ted’s Sports Center in Lynnwood, was a few fish caught but no pressure to speak of. “The weekend was pretty much a non-event on the Snohomish,” Chamberlain said. “It was pretty good before the storm hit, with most people who knew what they were doing getting their fish, and the rain could be pulling enough fish in to make for a good bite this weekend.” A couple of basic rigs are currently popular with both boat and bank anglers on the river, Chamberlain said. Pink or white jigs in quarter-ounce or half-ounce weights are catching pinks, as are Dick Nite spoons in 50-50, silver/pink, or pearl/pink. Tie a three-way swivel to the end of your line, then a 4-inch to 6-inch dropper to a half-ounce or one-ounce sinker, and, off the third leg of the swivel, four to six feet of 8-pound leader to the spoon. Toss it out and let it swing around in the current, keeping it just above bottom. Humpies in good numbers should be available in the river through September, Chamberlain said, but a little culling might be necessary late in the month as fish start to take on color. Don’t give up yet on saltwater pinks, either. The numbers have declined a little the past few days, but recent checks

Most areas of Puget Sound close to recreational crabbing at sunset on Labor Day, meaning the upcoming holiday weekend is the last chance to soak your traps until the winter season is announced in October. The only crabbing open after Labor Day will be Marine Areas 7-North and 7-South in the San Juan Islands, Thursdays through Mondays through Sept. 28. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are closed and all crab gear must be out of the water. Summer catch reports are due by midnight Oct. 1, whether or not you caught crab this year.

■ 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.

at the Port of Everett launch were running about 3 fish per boat, and Chamberlain said decent fishing should last on local saltwater through Sept. 10th or 15th. Beach fishermen on the west side of Whidbey, Point Wilson, Point No Point and other spots are still scoring, indicating fresh pinks coming in. The percentage of coho in the catch is rising, also, averaging five to six pounds but with a few 10- to 11-pounders in the bag.

A bunch of derbies You’re going to need a program to keep track of the ever-increasing list of salmon derbies in the San Juan Islands. First, the Roche Harbor Salmon Classic will be the same event, but with different dates. In order to avoid conflict with the Seattle Boat Show (Jan. 29-Feb. 6) and the Super Bowl (Feb. 7), the derby will run Jan. 21-23. “Same great derby,” organizer Debbie Sandwith says, “Nothing changes but the date.” The 2016 Roche Harbor derby entry form is available online; contact Sandwith at market@rocheharbor.com, or call 360-378-5562. Second, the Fidalgo-San Juan Island chapter of Puget Sound Anglers voted to move the Resurrection Derby and its usual dates from Friday Harbor to Anacortes, Dec. 4-5. As you might expect, this did not sit well with a number of Friday Harbor folks, so they’re trying to put together a new tournament, Dec. 3-5, on the old Resurrection Derby dates. And yes, if all of this flies, there will be two major derbies in the islands on the first weekend in December. I don’t know whether or not the new Friday Harbor event has a name, but for more information contact Jimmie Lawson, chairman, at hawgheavencharters@gmail.com.

March — are currently in limbo. Winter chinook seasons in the Islands have become so iffy (the derby was cancelled last year when the chinook season closed early) that club members are thinking of changing it to a smaller, summer derby, possibly in late August. According to club president Dan Carney (360-840-8762), the fishing area would be broadened from the usual Marine Area 7 to include Marine Area 6. That should serve to lessen the impact of competitive chinook fishing in the islands, Carney said.

If Seattle loses to Tulsa, which has already clinched a playoff berth, the Storm would trail the Los Angeles Sparks by three games with each team having four games to play in the regular season. Seattle does hold the tie-breaker over the Sparks on the strength of sweeping them in the regular season, but would have little

Chinook brood stock collection efforts at the Tulalip and Wallace River Hatchery improved with the recent rains, so WDFW has reopened chinook retention in the Tulalip Bubble fishery. The bubble is open Sept. 4 through noon Sept. 7 and Saturdays and Sundays only starting Sept. 12, through Sept. 27. Daily limit is two salmon plus two additional pinks, and the 2-rod endorsement is valid.

Fires and mule deer

Buoy 10 done

The news from the fire lines in north-central Washington is not as grim for mule deer hunters as one might expect. State Fish and Wildlife Department area biologist for Okanogan County Scott Fitkin, said there were relatively few problems on the Methow side of the major fire complex, except possibly for Black Canyon Creek road. On the Okanogan side, Fitkin said, most of the fire damage has been on private land and at elevations lower than those being utilized by summering deer. Of public, WDFW land, only Scotch Creek Wildlife Area was burned, and Game Management Unit 204, East Okanogan, was probably the most affected GMU so far, Fitkin said. Game managers were scheduled to meet today, and there should be an updated situation report available by early next week.

The buoy 10 fishery at the bottom end of the Columbia River closed to chinook retention Friday, as a week of record catch rates and angler turnout forced closure several days earlier than anticipated. State biologist Joe Hymer in Vancouver said buoy 10 got off to a strong start, and effort and catch rates have remained high. The chinook harvest through Aug. 26 was 35,200 chinook, second highest catch total on kings since the record 42,100 fish in 1982.

Even if Seattle beats Tulsa tonight, it would still need to eliminate its two-game deficit with just four games to play. After a fast start, Tulsa has returned to form after a 2-13 stretch, as a five-game winning streak which helped them clinch a playoff berth. Seattle is trying to catch the Sparks for the fourth and final playoff spot.

Bubble opens

Hoot owl on Snoqualmie The Snoqualmie River, from its mouth to the falls, is now closed to fishing from 2 p.m. until one hour before sunrise, daily. Warm water temps and low flows have raised concern about increased fish mortality, prompting the “hoot owl” fishing schedule.

Third-year forward Matt Fonteyne’s grandfather, Val, played 820 games in the NHL with Detroit, Pittsburgh and the New York Rangers. Cam Dykstra, a 17-yearold defenseman is the son of Steve, who played 217 games with Buffalo, Edmonton, Pittsburgh and Hartford. “If I see one common thing in all those kids it’s that they like being around the rink,” said Silvertips head coach Kevin

Constantine. “That’s probably a commonality and part of their genetics. Plus you see the style of their parents a little bit. You can see the bloodlines, you can see the genetics and you can see the apple not falling that far from the tree.” Sutter plays with confidence that belies his age. His poise impressed the coaching staff during the first week of camp and Sunday’s Green and Grey Game. “He’s very comfortable with the puck on his stick,” Constantine said. “He shoots it really well and he distributes it really well. That leads me to believe he’s got a really nice hockey sense thought process on the offensive side of the game.” Sutter played 36 games last season for the minor midget AAA Rangers of the Calgary Buffalo Hockey Association. He tallied 22 goals and 28 assists, and also had an assist in five games with the AAA midget Calgary Buffaloes. The Silvertips organization likes the size the 6-foot-2, 185-pounder brings to the team. Sutter does not turn 16 until late October and could add more to his already sizeable frame. “He’s definitely a power forward at our level because of his size, strength and ability to get around the ice,” Davidson said. “I think he’s got the potential to play at higher levels above us.” Sutter has a long way to go to reach those levels. But he certainly has some impressive footsteps in which to follow.

WESCO 3A NORTH PREVIEW Outlook

The favorite

6 games to watch

Marysville Pilchuck — the co-champion with Oak Harbor last season — might see its three-year reign atop the Wesco 3A North come to end. The Tomahawks graduated several key players from that run, including running backs Austin Joyner and Killian Page, and defensive leaders Nic Alonso, Drew Hatch and Bryce Vitcovich, which could open the door for a new team to claim the crown. Oak Harbor returns two stars in running back Princeton Lollar and receiver Dyllan Harris. Arlington found itself in the middle of the pack in 2014 after dropping down to the 3A classification. Marysville Getchell, with a large junior class, comes back in 2015 with another year of experience under its belt. Stanwood and Everett, which has a new head coach in former Spartans’ coach Doug Trainor, look to rebound from tough 2014 campaigns in what looks like a wide-open conference.

Oak Harbor. After finishing as the runner-up to Marysville Pilchuck the past three years — the two teams didn’t play last season and each finished conference play at 4-0 — this may be the season the Wildcats break through to the top. With Lollar and Harris returning, Oak Harbor has two of the top offensive weapons in the conference. The Oct. 23 game against Marysville Pilchuck could be for the title and, for the first time in three seasons, the Wildcats might be the favorite in the contest.

The dark horse Marysville Pilchuck. The Tomahawks’ always seem to turn unknown offensive linemen into all-conference performers and while Marysville Pilchuck needs to work its magic at a few other positions this season, the Tomahawks have a chance to claim their fourth consecutive title.

Arlington vs. Marysville Getchell (Sept. 25): Marysville Getchell, now in the fifth year of its program, looks to make a splash early against a tough Arlington team that could challenge for the conference title in its second season in the league. Marysville Pilchuck vs. Marysville Getchell (Oct. 2): The annual Berry Bowl pits the Marysville crosstown rivals against each other. The Chargers are looking for their first-ever win against the Tomahawks. Oak Harbor at Arlington (Oct. 2): While the Berry Bowl is going on just down Highway 9, the Eagles play host to Oak Harbor in a matchup of two teams with championship aspirations. Stanwood vs. Everett (Oct. 2): Everett is led by first-year coach Doug Trainor, who was the Spartans’ head coach in 2012 before current

We have had better commitment in the offseason and although it may not show in the win-loss column, we can already feel the difference internally. Our focus is on the process of being great teammates of character and working to be the best person we can be. The rest will take care of itself.”

Both teams hope to be in the running for a playoff spot — and a league title — and this game could prove crucial to both teams’ chances of accomplishing those goals. Oak Harbor at Marysville Pilchuck (Oct. 23): The past three seasons the winner of the Wesco 3A North has come down to this game between the Wildcats and Tomahawks. Last season the two teams didn’t play because of the shooting at Marysville Pilchuck the day of the game.

Wildcats: Harris contributed 73 tackles on defense last season From Page C1

not blessed with blazing speed, Harris has exceptional leaping ability and hand-eye coordination, and with his quickness and power he can turn short receptions into long gains. “He’s our go-to guy,” Turner said. “When we need a big play, we’re going to throw it up to him. The guy’s got pretty spectacular hands, he’s very athletic, and with his size he’s a nice, big target. “He’s a weapon and we want him to have the ball.” Since last season, Harris has grown about an inch and added about 15 pounds, with the latter

due in part to diligent weight training. But he plays even bigger than he is because, as he explained, “I like contact. I like making big hits on people. I always want to be more aggressive and more physical than my defender.” Harris is also a standout basketball player, and he can display his jumping ability on the court by dunking with two hands, which is generally more difficult than dunking with one hand. But for Harris two hands is easier “because it’s hard for me to palm the ball. When I hold it with one hand it kind of slips out,” he said. On the football field, he went on, “I feel like if I go up with someone,

I’m going to snag the ball. (Outjumping a defender) is how I scored a lot of my touchdowns and how I got a lot of yards last year.” On defense Harris patrols the secondary from his free safety position. He had four interceptions a year ago, but against the run “he comes up (in pursuit) like a linebacker,” said Turner, citing Harris’ 73 tackles last season. In addition, Harris returns punts and kickoffs for the Wildcats. He is, Turner said, “kind of a do-it-all guy, and we get him out on the field as much as we can. And when you see him on the field, he’s definitely somebody that stands out.”

Others agree. “(With) the quickness and speed Harris has, he’s a dynamic talent,” said Marysville Pilchuck coach Brandon Carson. “He’s a pretty gifted kid.” Harris hopes to play collegiately next year, and the only question is whether he ends up playing football or basketball. “I want both so much,” he said. “I feel like I like basketball more, but I feel like I’m more (of a football player). ... If I have the opportunity to go (NCAA Division 1) in either one, that’s would I would take.” In football, and in terms of blue-chip recruiting, perhaps the only question about Harris is his

speed. He recently ran a 4.8-second 40-yard dash, which is good for a high school player, but less than what most elite college programs would want from wide receiver and defensive back prospects. “He’s got good speed ... but he’s not going to blow past you with his world-class speed,” Turner acknowledged. “If he was a 4.5 guy, he’d have every Pac-12 school knocking down the doors for him. “But he’s starting to get some looks. And we’ll probably start seeing more of it as the season goes on because his athletic ability kind of stands out.”

WESCO 3A SOUTH PREVIEW

Grizzlies From Page C1

Guffey said all the right things when asked about his 2014 statistics. He was humble about his accomplishments and satisfied with how often the ball was put in his hands. “I’m just trying to make every play I can,” Guffey said. “I don’t really care about the numbers. At the end of the day, the only thing that really matters is the win or the loss.” It was the type of answer every coach wants to hear their players give when asked about statistics. In turn, Rosenbach’s take on getting Guffey the ball is exactly the kind of response any explosive player would want to hear from their coach. “I care about his stats,” Rosenbach said. “All I care about is at halftime, he better have seven to 10 touches in a half. If he doesn’t have seven to 10 touches in a half, I need to manufacture some touches for him.” It stands to reason Guffey’s numbers will increase this season with Rosenbach more focused on getting him the ball from Week 1. Guffey doesn’t necessarily think that will be the case. “We’ve got so many weapons out there,” Guffey said. “Whatever (Rosenbach) feels is right is whatever play that he calls. I think he just calls what play he likes not really who he wants to go to because we’ve got so many weapons we can just spread the ball around.” Rosenbach and Guffey are on the same page when it comes to the depth of the Grizzlies. While Rosenbach is excited about the notion of getting the ball into the hands of his standout senior, he said he will welcome a doubleteam of Guffey. “I think we are more balanced as a team, meaning that we have some more viable weapons, which is good,” Rosenbach said. “If somebody wants to put a safety and a corner and bracket him — great. All day long, please do it because I feel like we are good enough to go beat that this year whereas maybe we weren’t last year.” As former Mountlake Terrace head coach Tony Umayam noted, no matter what defenses are thrown at Glacier Peak, Rosenbach knows how to get the ball to the guys who can make plays — especially Guffey. “They’re creative in the different ways that they try to get him the ball with bubble screens and receiver slip screens,” Umayam said. “Every time he touches the ball you kind of hold your breath because he’s pretty dynamic. It’s extremely hard for one guy to bring him down, so you need to corral him in order to keep him from breaking a big play.” Guffey had his share of big plays against the Hawks last season. He helped the Grizzlies build a 22-0 lead at halftime of their Week 6 matchup, but an injury slowed him in the second half and the Hawks came from behind to win 33-32. The win propelled the Hawks to a second-place finish in the Wesco 3A South, while the Grizzlies needed a last-second win over Edmonds-Woodway in Week 8 to continue their streak of consecutive playoff appearances. With several key players returning led by Guffey, the league’s coaches don’t expect the Grizzlies’ season to come down to the wire this year. They are the heavy favorite to win the league championship. In college and the National Football League, having a bigplay guy won’t necessarily separate a team from the rest of the pack because the talent pool is more similar. Umayam said it’s a much different story in high school. “At the high-school level, it’s probably the most critical thing to have that will decide the outcome of your season,” Umayam said.

Outlook The two teams that finished atop the Wesco 3A South last season — conference champion Meadowdale and runner-up Mountlake Terrace — have new head coaches, and both squads were hit hard by graduation. That turnover has many wondering what the Mavericks and Hawks will accomplish in 2015. And with expectations up in the air for the Mavericks and Hawks, the door appears open for the two teams that battled it out in the final game of conference play last season to decide the third and final playoff spot. Glacier Peak defeated Edmonds-Woodway to secure that spot, and many believe those two teams will be fighting it out for the league championship this season. Meanwhile, Lynnwood and Shorewood both proved to be competitive a year ago and expect the same this season. The Thunderbirds, in particular, could be a team to watch, with a slew of returning talent. Like the Mavericks and Hawks, graduation hit Lynnwood hard. The Royals lost 22 seniors from last year’s team. Finally, as the league’s only Class 2A team, Shorecrest looks to be more competitive after a winless season in 2014.

The dark horse Meadowdale. After graduating nearly 20 seniors from last year’s team — and losing head coach Mike Don, who took over as the head coach at Eastmont High School in East Wenatchee — the deck appears stacked against the Mavericks, but they don’t see it that way. Matt Leonard is Meadowdale’s third coach in the past four seasons, but even with that turnover, the Mavs haven’t missed a beat. In Don’s two seasons as head coach, he took the Mavericks to the state playoffs twice, including a trip to the 3A state quarterfinals in 2013. While outsiders might expect the Mavericks to have a down year, Leonard and his team fully expect to be back in the state playoffs in 2015.

Glacier Peak Grizzlies Last season: 4-2 league, 6-4 overall; lost 45-15 to Auburn Mountainview in the Class 3A

playoffs every year since the school opened in 2008. The Grizzlies needed a 45-yard field goal by Spencer Pettit to defeat Edmonds-Woodway in the final conference game of the season last October to keep that streak alive. The Grizzlies should have less trouble keeping that run going in 2015.

together for their yearly matchup. Meadowdale at Edmonds-Woodway (Sept. 18): It may take place early in conference play, but this game could have a big say in how the Wesco 3A South plays out. Glacier Peak at Meadowdale (Sept. 25): It seems like one of these teams is the conference champion every year. Glacier Peak is the favorite this season, but the Mavericks are eager to prove that they still belong near the top despite losing several starters from last year’s team and welcoming a new head coach in the offseason. Mountlake Terrace at Glacier Peak (Oct. 9): Last year, Glacier Peak led 22-0 at halftime on the road, only to be stunned by the Hawks, 33-32. Terrace went on to the best season in school history, while the Grizzlies had to win their final game of the regular season just to make the playoffs. Edmonds-Woodway at Glacier Peak (Oct. 23): Glacier Peak got long field goals from Spencer Pettit to close the first half and the game in a 20-17 win over the Warriors. The victory gave the Grizzlies a playoff spot and eliminated the Warriors from postseason contention. This year, the game could determine the league champion.

Word from the coach: “Meadowdale has had a long string of success that dates back through two different coaches. We have kind of developed a winning attitude. Our kids feel like even though we graduated a lot of starters and a lot of talent over the last couple of years that we’re still Meadowdale and we’re still going to be tough. We still feel like we’re the team that people have to go through in the (Wesco) South. That’s our attitude and that’s how we’ve approached it — that we kind of have something to prove to people that think that we’re down this year.”

Having graduated 22 seniors from 2014, you will see many new names and faces suited up on Friday nights, but we feel real good about our potential with this group. Overall, the program is strong. We have solid numbers in each class and are fortunate to have a large and talented freshman class, so we feel the future is bright for Terrace.”

Word from the coach: “After a rough 2014, we will look to continue to improve and battle as the only 2A school in Wesco 3A. We will be a senior-heavy team with a majority of our returners having played full time last year as juniors and sophomores. The strength of the team will be the defense that returns 10 of 11 starters from last year’s squad. After a shaky carousel of quarterbacks last season, junior Jack Koss will bring stability to that position. Also returning to the offense will be senior running back Will Brennan, whose season was cut short last year with a shoulder separation.”

Kershaw strikes out 15, Dodgers beat Giants 2-1

MARINERS | Update

FRIDAY’S GAME

Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw struck out 15 to set a season career high with 251, Chase Utley hit a go-ahead homer in the sixth inning and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 2-1 on Wednesday night for a series sweep that increased their NL West lead to 61⁄2 games. The second-place Giants’ fifth straight loss left them facing their largest division deficit of the season. All three defeats to the Dodgers were by one run and they have scored just 11 runs during their skid. Giants manager Bruce Bochy was ejected for the second straight game. Kershaw (12-6) beat the Giants for the first time in four starts this season. He allowed one run and six hits and walked one on a career high-tying 132 pitches for his third complete game of the season. The left-hander leads the National League in strikeouts, surpassing his career-best of 248 set in 2011. His 15 strikeouts tied a career high after having 14 against the Cubs in his previous start. Kershaw became the first NL pitcher to strike out 250 batters in a season since Tim Lincecum of the Giants fanned 261 in 2009. Mike Leake (9-7) gave up two runs and five hits in seven innings, struck out three and walked none. He is winless in five starts since the Giants acquired him from Cincinnati on July 30. Kershaw’s performance gave the Dodgers’ oft-shaky bullpen a rest after it came up big in the series’ first two games, a 5-4, 14-inning win Monday and a 2-1 victory Tuesday. Kershaw created suspense for a crowd of 41,648 that was on its feet in the ninth. With two outs, the Giants put the tying and goahead runs on base after Matt Duffy and Buster Posey had consecutive singles. Kershaw struck out Marlon Byrd to end the game, pumping his arms. Utley’s homer put the Dodgers ahead for good, 2-1. The Giants tied the game 1-all in the sixth on a single by Angel Pagan that glanced off the glove of third baseman Justin Turner and into left field with two outs, scoring Kelby Tomlinson, who walked and stole second. Los Angeles led 1-0 on Carl Crawford’s RBI double in the second. Bochy was ejected in the dugout after Brandon Belt struck out leading off the eighth. He claimed it was a checked swing and appealed to third base umpire Mike Winters, who tossed Bochy before the manager came onto the field to argue in person.

Royals rout Tigers 12-1 Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Of all the hits that Tigers manager Brad Ausmus watched Wednesday night, the one that left a lasting impression had nothing to do with the four homers the Royals pounded out. It was the pitch thrown by Yordano Ventura that hit Detroit’s Ian Kinsler. Kansas City’s hard-throwing youngster has thrown at hitters before, and has been involved in a few scuffles with the Tigers. So when a fastball drilled his second baseman in the first inning of what turned into a 12-1 rout Wednesday night, Ausmus wondered about its intent. “I had my doubts about it,” he said. Ventura said he was merely trying to pitch inside and it got away from him. Royals manager Ned Yost also said it was unintentional, though he demurred when asked whether the Tigers’ Randy Wolf hitting Salvador Perez an inning later was retaliation. Asked the same question, Ausmus replied: “Well, I mean in this game things usually take care of themselves, so I’m not really worried about it.” The Tigers had plenty of other things to worry about.

Mariners top Astros 8-3 By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

HOUSTON — Hello, Shawn O’Malley. Promoted Tuesday from Triple-A Tacoma, O’Malley had three hits Wednesday night, including a tie-breaking RBI single in the eighth inning, that helped propel the Mariners to an 8-3 victory over the Houston Astros. “It was special,” he admitted. “I was looking for a pitch up that I could handle. Sometimes, it’s good not to use your barrel. You get jammed, and it just dropped right in there.” This was one of those rare games this season when most things went the Mariners’ way. But don’t be deceived by the final score. This was a tight seesaw contest until Logan Morrison continued his season-long assault at Minute Maid Park by hitting a threerun homer in the ninth inning. Of Morrison’s 15 homers, six have come at Minute Maid. His two-run pinch blast Tuesday provided the winning margin in a 7-5 victory. “I love this park,” he admitted. “It’s good to know you can be a little late and still get a ball out. If you’re at Safeco, it’s probably an out.” But it was a Morrison walk that helped turn the game. It was 3-3 in the eighth inning when he got a rematch against Astros reliever Pat Neshek, who served up Morrison’s two-run homer on Tuesday. “I figured he wasn’t going to lay a fastball in there for me after (Tuesday) night,” Morrison said. “So he mixed it up. I was just trying to get something over the middle of the plate

again and do damage with it. “I fouled some pitches off and won the battle. Just grinded it.” When Jesus Sucre put down a sacrifice bunt, the Mariners caught a huge break when Neshek (1-5) overthrew second baseman Jose Altuve at first. That put runners at second and third with no outs. O’Malley followed with a single to right for a 4-3 lead. Sucre broke for home on Ketel Marte’s tapper to Altuve and was trapped for the first out but remained in the rundown long enough for the other runners to reach second and third. That prompted an intentional walk to Kyle Seager, which loaded the bases for pinch-hitter Seth Smith, who had just replaced an injured Nelson Cruz. The Astros countered by bringing in lefty Oliver Perez. Smith’s slow roller to second produced a run when the Astros settled for a force at second. The Mariners led 5-3. Logan Kensing began the Houston eighth by surrendering a double to Jed Lowrie, who went to third on a wild pitch. After Carlos Correa popped out, the Mariners called on closer Tom Wilhelmsen. “Right there,” Wilhelmsen said, “I was trying to harness my inner Carson Smith with what he did (Tuesday). Seriously. That’s exactly what went through my mind. Just be a Carson right now.” Smith worked around a leadoff triple in Tuesday’s victory. Wilhelmsen did him one better. He stranded Lowrie at third in the eighth and held Carlos Gomez at third in the ninth after a leadoff double and an

error. The ninth inning was far easier; Wilhelmsen was pitching with a five-run lead at that point. He closed out the victory for his eighth saves. And Smith got the victory after stranding runners at second and third in the seventh. For O’Malley, who grew up as a Mariners fan in Kennewick, it was surreal that he found himself getting congratulations from hitting coach Edgar Martinez. “It’s awesome how things have changed,” said O’Malley, who signed with the Mariners in January as a minor-league free agent. “I was like, ‘Man, I used to look up to you when I was a little kid and now you are highfiving me and telling me how to hit.’ It was awesome.” The Mariners’ closing kick followed a wild seventh inning. Taijuan Walker settled into a groove through the middle innings and got two quick outs before hitting a bump by walking Luis Valbuena after being ahead 1-2 in the count. When Hank Conger followed with a double into the rightfield corner, Valbuena stopped at third — and the Mariners went to the bullpen for Carson Smith to face Altuve. Smith (2-5) struck out Altuve on a full-count slider and got the victory after the Mariners took the lead in the eighth. Smith also struck out Altuve on Tuesday when he worked around that leadoff triple. “I just try to stay away with all of my pitches,” Smith said, “and try to force weak contact. He doesn’t have a big strike zone. He’s a small guy, but he doesn’t play like it. You’ve got pretend he’s David Ortiz up there.”

M’s O’Malley finally gets his chance By Bob Dutton The News Tribune

HOUSTON — A year ago, while playing in the Angels’ system, infielder Shawn O’Malley had the best season in his nineyear professional career. He batted .330 at Triple-A Salt Lake with a .411 on-base percentage. He even made his majorleague debut by appearing in 11 games for the Angels as a September call-up. So when he became a free agent after the season, he expected to generate interest from several clubs. For whatever reason, that didn’t happen. Only the Mariners made early contact. They were looking for a backup utility option in case veteran Willie Bloomquist didn’t recover from major knee surgery. Interest was mutual. A Richland native, O’Malley grew up as a Mariners fan and still characterizes Edgar Martinez, Dan Wilson, Ken Griffey Jr. and Jay Buhner as “my idols.” So it wasn’t a tough decision.

“After a week or so,” O’Malley recalled, “I said, ‘They called me first, right away. So, obviously, there’s some interest.’ It just felt like the right fit. And I was close to home, so my mom was happy.” On Tuesday, O’Malley, 27, was one of four players the Mariners summoned from Triple-A Tacoma for the closing weeks. He arrives after batting .297 in 89 games for the Rainiers. O’Malley was almost here two months ago. Although he was quickly dispatched to minor-league camp in spring training, O’Malley was positioned for a July promotion. For while Bloomquist quickly proved his knee was fine in spring drills, his performance sagged as the season wound through the first three months. He was designated for assignment on July 2. O’Malley had loomed as the likely replacement but, just two days earlier, he injured his hand on a slide at second base. That put him on the shelf for a

month. The promotion went to Chris Taylor. “It was something you never want to have happen,” O’Malley said, “but I look at it as a blessing in disguise. I got to work with (Justin) Ruggiano when he came down (to Tacoma) in center field. “So I got more comfortable playing in the outfield.” Good thing. O’Malley started Wednesday in center field when the Mariners closed out a three-game series against Houston at Minute Maid Park. O’Malley projects as the backup center fielder for the closing weeks. Former shortstop Brad Miller shifted to the position on a full-time basis Monday when the Mariners traded Austin Jackson to the Cubs. “If that’s where I end up playing (at times) here, that’s perfect.” O’Malley said. “Now, I feel more comfortable there. If I don’t have that injury, who knows if I’d feel as good (in the outfield) as I feel now.”

Montero sent back to AAA Tacoma Slumping first baseman Jesus Montero is heading back to Triple-A Tacoma for the remainder of the Rainiers’ season to allow him to get some regular playing time. “It was an opportunity to get him some at-bats over the next six days to try to sharpen him back up,” manager Lloyd McClendon said. “When he comes back, he’ll have a better chance of helping us to win ballgames.” McClendon said Montero will return Sept.8, one day after the Rainiers conclude their season. Montero, 25, was recently picked as the All-Pacific Coast League first baseman, but he batted .200 with two homers and nine RBIs in 25 big-league games. He had just two hits in his last 36 at-bats. “It’s a smart decision to make,” McClendon said. “You can have him sit here for six days or have him get possibly 30 at-bats.” Montero batted .346 at Tacoma with 16 homers and 75 RBI in 93 games prior to his July 31 recall. Pitching plans Right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma will get two extra days of rest prior to his next start, which will be Sunday in Oakland. Iwakuma had been in line to start Friday’s series opener against the Athletics. “Just to give him a couple of extra days,” McClendon said. “That’s all.” Lefty Edgar Olmos will start Friday in place Iwakuma. Felix Hernandez will start Saturday at Oakland after getting skipped on the last cycle through rotation. The situation surrounding lefty James Paxton became murky when he left his rehab start Wednesday for Tacoma at Salt Lake in the fourth inning because of a blister on his middle finger. That’s the same finger that forced Paxton to the disabled list for the last three-plus months because of a strained tendon. He will be reevaluated on Thursday. Paxton had been scheduled to rejoin the big-league rotation early next week against Texas at Safeco Field. Lefty reliever Joe Beimel is eligible to return Friday from the disabled list but could remain on a rehab assignment after giving up two runs and five hits in two-thirds of an inning Tuesday for Tacoma at Salt Lake. “Hopefully, he’ll get to pitch one more time,” McClendon said.“From a physical standpoint, he’s good. But five hits and two runs in twothirds of an inning, that’s not very good.” Beimel is recovering from shoulder inflammation. Short hops When reliever Logan Kensing got the victory Tuesday, it ended a drought of 2,158 days since his last one: Oct. 4, 2009 for Washington at Atlanta. It was a 15-inning game on the season’s final day. “I was the last guy left,” Kensing recalled. Bob Dutton, The News Tribune

Seahawks From Page C1

Smith and Williams fall distinctly into that bubble category. Seattle currently has eight receivers on the roster and will likely keep six. That means the former Huskies have to beat out the likes of Chris Matthews and B.J. Daniels to earn a spot on the team. Therefore, they understand the importance of Thursday’s game. “Games 1, 2 and 3 were important for me, so this one is exactly the same way,” said Smith, a free-agent signing who was a Husky from 2010-13 before failing to crack an NFL roster last season. “I can control what

I can control, just going out there and playing hard and having fun.” Smith and Williams find themselves in new circumstances. Both were standouts at Washington. Smith led the Huskies in receiving yards as a senior in 2013, while Williams was on his way to stardom before a debilitating leg injury wiped out much of his junior and senior campaigns in 2013 and 2014. Now, instead of being the focus of the offense, they’re trying to show they can contribute in the little ways, whether that’s on special teams, the scout team, or even showing the right attitude during routine practice drills. “I had never done special teams before,” Williams, a rookie free-agent signing,

said. “I’m going at it with 100-percent effort. “I know how to take practice way more seriously,” Williams added. “I know that practice is everything. After I got hurt, my senior year I was taking practice more seriously. But the NFL is a whole other level as far as practice goes. I’m watching guys like Earl (Thomas), I’m watching Richard (Sherman), I’m watching Russell (Wilson) and seeing how important every rep is to them. Earl isn’t even playing and even in walkthrough he’s taking every rep just as seriously as if it’s a game. For me it’s like, ‘He’s a Pro Bowler and he’s a Pro Bowler, and they’re doing all this?’ I probably should be doing it, too.” Both Smith and Williams

had their moment late in Saturday’s 16-15 victory at San Diego. Smith had a 54-yard kick return midway through the fourth quarter. Then Williams caught a big fourth-down pass, spinning past a defender for 22 yards to help set up Steven Hauschka’s game-winning 60-yard field goal. They’ll be looking for more of those type of opportunities Thursday — or more accurately, trying to create those opportunities for themselves. “You have to have that mindset to come out here and do what it takes,” Smith said. “It doesn’t matter if you’re blocking on special teams or in the run game, or returning kicks and having the ball in your hands. You have to make plays.”

For Smith and Williams making the Seahawks would mean that much more, given it’s the same city where they played college ball. Williams has the added incentive of having grown up in nearby Sammamish. “It would mean a lot to me,” Williams said about making his hometown NFL team. “I’ve been working on this thing for 13 years now. I had it all at one point, and then it all kind of went away. To rebuild that foundation and show I’m better than I was before, even before I got hurt, is big for me. So if I make this 53-man roster, that’s what it’s going to show, that I was successful.” For Williams, Smith and the rest of the Seahawk hopefuls, Thursday is the last chance to earn that

No movement on Jackson The Seahawks did not act Wednesday on the potential signing of running back Fred Jackson. The 34-year-old Jackson, who gained more than 5,000 yards over the previous eight seasons with Buffalo before being released by the Bills on Monday, visited the Seahawks on Tuesday and underwent a physical. However, the parties did not reach an agreement Wednesday. Seattle is working with a limited amount of space under the salary cap (just over $5 million, according to OverTheCap.com), and the status of injured back-up tailback Robert Turbin (sprained ankle) could also be a factor.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL | What to watch

Mickens honors teammate Ross Huskies’ wide receiver Mickens switches jersey number from No. 4 to No. 1 By Christian Caple

kind of the wily veterans right now in how far along they are, even when some of those guys weren’t starters.”

The News Tribune

ALBERT CESARE / THE MONTGOMERY ADVERTISER

Jim Harbaugh coaches his first game for Michigan on Thursday night when the Wolverines play at Utah.

The college football season kicks off with a slew of games this week, starting Thursday. Here are three of Thursday’s best matchups.

North Carolina vs. South Carolina Thursday, 3 p.m., ESPN The Buzz: The battle of the Carolinas kicks off at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, with South Carolina holding a two-game win streak in the series against the Tar Heels. Both of these teams were terrible on the defensive side of the ball last season and both made changes in the offseason. UNC added Gene Chizik and South Carolina added Jon Hoke to their respective defensive staffs.

Michigan at Utah Thursday, 5:30 p.m., Fox Sports 1 The Buzz: The muchanticipated debut of the Jim Harbaugh era at Michigan kicks off in Salt Lake City against Utah. The Wolverines haven’t fared well in their recent previous nonconference road games (3-8) during the past 15 years, while Utah is 20-4 in home openers and 13-1 against nonconference opponents since 2010. During his four seasons at Stanford, Harbaugh never faced the Utes.

No. 2 TCU at Minnesota

SEATTLE – Jaydon Mickens had a simple explanation on Tuesday for why he switched jersey numbers from No. 4 to No. 1 for the 2015 season. “We finally announced the starting quarterback,” Mickens said, “and it’s going to be me, Cam Newton.” He was joking, probably. The real reason Mickens switched numbers is to honor teammate John Ross III, the Huskies’ speedy receiver and kick returner who will miss the 2015 season due to a knee injury. The two grew up together in the Los Angeles area and are close friends. Ross wore No. 1 last season, and Mickens has always worn No. 4. But because true freshman cornerback Austin Joyner from Marysville-Pilchuck High School also wears No. 4 and is likely to play on some of the same special-teams units as Mickens this season, somebody had to change. So Ross, who along with Mickens and Marvin Hall is a founding member of the self-described “Legion of Zoom,” suggested that Mickens simply take his number. “Ross said, ‘hey man, I want you to wear my number,’” Mickens said. “So I was like, ‘man, if you really want me to wear your number, I’ll wear your number this year to honor you.’ He’s not dead, but it’s just all out of respect, love, the whole L.O.Z thing. “... We’ve known each other for a long time. And for this to be my last year, and probably never playing any organized sport with him ever again, I had to do something to let him know that I respect him,

Petersen still mum on QB

JENNIFER BUCHANAN / THE HERALD

Washington wide receiver Jaydon Mickens grew up in the Los Angeles area and is close friends with teammate John Ross, who is out for the season with a knee injury.

I love him, and I’m always here for him.” Huskies coach Chris Petersen said Sunday that Ross has been “spectacular” during his rehab from ACL surgery. “I can’t tell you how positive that guy has been in this whole thing,” Petersen said. “And he’s making an unbelievable recovery. It’s one of those things where it’s like, ‘are we sure this guy’s not going to play?’ I think a lot of it has to do with his mentality and how positive he has been.” Without Ross, the Huskies have just four scholarship receivers returning from last season — Mickens, Hall, and sophomores

Texas-San Antonio at Arizona Thursday, 7 p.m, Pac-12 Network Orlando Sentinel

Brayden Lenius and Dante Pettis. Three true freshmen — Chico McClatcher, Isaiah Renfro and Quinten Pounds — will likely factor into the receiver rotation, too. Pettis and Lenius are listed as starters after playing last season as true freshmen. Speaking in general terms about the 11 true freshmen that occupy the Huskies’ depth chart, Petersen said: “I think some of these guys are pretty talented and just by the nature of the youth of our team, anyway, we feel good about getting these guys into the mix. I think one thing that’s real apparent is the kids that we played last year as true freshmen, those are

UW notes Petersen said it was “a big deal” in Boise when the two schools announced a home-and-home series in 2011 (for the 2013 and 2015 seasons). “I think there’s been two Pac-12 teams that have gone into Boise in the entire history of Boise State,” he said, referring to Oregon State and Oregon. “So for us at that time to get another one to come back was a big deal, and it still is.” ... Petersen said that aside from Ross, the Huskies don’t have any “long-term” injuries heading into the season.

Serena advances to third round By Howard Fendrich Associated Press

Thursday, 6 p.m., ESPN The Buzz: For the first time in school history, TCU will open a season ranked in the top five (No. 2 in coaches and Associated Press top 25 polls). The last time the Horned Frogs opened up a season ranked and on the road was 2011, a 50-48 loss to Baylor. Now, they travel to Minnesota to take on a Gophers team they beat 30-7 last season. Also on TV

Asked during his Wednesday media availability about how the Huskies’ anonymous starting quarterback handled his duties this week, Petersen showed a sense of humor. “Well, we actually went with 10 guys on offense this week. We’re still making sure we decide the right thing. We’ll get him some reps in the next 48 hours,” Petersen said. He then added: “They’ve done well,” then swiftly changed the subject. Petersen said Sunday that he’s announced the identity of the starting quarterback to the team, but won’t make a public announcement before Friday’s game. He did say that this week’s practices affirmed his decision. “We feel good about it,” Petersen said. “We took about as much time as we could deciding what we were going to do and I think we feel very good about it.”

NEW YORK — The enormity of what is at stake for Serena Williams at the U.S. Open — the first true Grand Slam in tennis in more than a quarter of a century — hit her Wednesday. That, she said, is why her play was so uneven in the second round at Flushing Meadows, despite facing a qualifier ranked only 110th. And it’s why, after the 10 doublefaults, two dozen other unforced errors and an all-around sloppy first set, Williams got pointers from coach Patrick Mouratoglou and headed straight to a practice court to put in work, hoping to repair what plagued her during a 7-6 (5), 6-3 victory over Kiki Bertens of the Netherlands. “Today, I was a little tight,” Williams said. “I think it showed.” Sure did. She got broken early. She double-faulted four times

— yes, four — in one game. She didn’t manage to earn a break point against the strong-serving Bertens until the 10th game. Williams trailed 5-3 in the first set, finally broke for 5-all, but then needed to erase a 4-0 deficit in the tiebreaker. All attributable, at least in part, to thinking about what she is trying to accomplish these two weeks. “Until today, I was OK with it. I just got a little nervous today,” the 33-year-old American said. “But I’ve been doing totally fine. I’ve been completely relaxed, chill. I’ve been really, really fine. So I’m going to get back into the place that I was, and I’ll be fine again.” She has won the past four major titles, a streak that began at last year’s U.S. Open, and 21 overall. If she can win five more matches at Flushing Meadows — starting in the third round against Bethanie Mattek-Sands in an all-U.S.

U.S. Open glance

matchup Friday — Williams would complete the first calendar-year Grand Slam in tennis since Steffi Graf in 1988. Also on the line for Williams: A 22nd major singles championship would equal Graf for the most in the Open era, which began in 1968, and second-most in history behind Margaret Court’s 24. Plus, Williams is trying to become the first woman since Chris Evert in 1975-78 to win four consecutive U.S. Opens. “Right now, she’s on a mission to get a record,” said Mattek-Sands, a 30-year-old wild-card entry, “and I’m here, playing my game.” “I have to start out strong if I want to stay in the tournament,” Williams said. “If not, I can go on vacation.” Mattek-Sands made it to the third round at Flushing Meadows for the first time in 13 appearances by beating another American, CoCo Vandeweghe, 6-2, 6-1.

A look at Wednesday’s play at the $42.3 million U.S. Open tennis championships: Men’s seeded winners: Second Round: No. 1 Novak Djokovic , No. 7 David Ferrer, No. 8 Rafael Nadal, No. 9 Marin Cilic, No. 10 Milos Raonic, No. 14 David Goffin, No. 18 Feliciano Lopez, No. 23 Roberto Bautista Agut, No. 27 Jeremy Chardy and No. 32 Fabio Fognini. Men’s seeded losers: No. 17 Grigor Dimitrov. Women’s seeded winners: FSecond Round: No. 1 Serena Williams, No. 15 Agnieszka Radwanska, No. 17 Elina Svitolina, No. 19 Madison Keys, No. 23 Venus Williams and No. 25 Eugenie Bouchard.

Perfect perennials Ten great plants for adding structure and beauty to the garden By Adrian Higgins

Perennials tips

The Washington Post

Most home gardens would be far more interesting and enriching if we simply upped the number of plants in them. We have too much lawn, too many areas of mulched beds and too limited a range of plants to carry the landscape through the growing season and beyond. In any landscape development, perennials play a vital role in providing the layer that is both colorful and structural, especially when used boldly as a massing or ground cover. Perennials die back each winter and then regrow from the roots. From their spring emergence, seasonal flowering and gentle decline, perennials provide the most dynamic layer in the garden. Some perennials, especially ornamental grasses, carry a measure of beauty through the winter even if their top growth is lifeless at that point. Perennials arguably represent the single most exciting aspect of horticulture in our time, because they fit so well with the idea of creating gardens that are not only beautiful but provide shelter and food for wildlife and help to address environmental issues such as protecting soil, checking storm water pollution and reducing the need for pesticides. With help from Roy Diblik of Northwind Perennial Farm in Burlington, Wisconsin; the New York Botanical Garden’s Kristin Schleiter; George Coombs, research horticulturist at Mount Cuba Center in Hockessin, Delaware; and Elise Zylstra of Sandy’s Plants nursery in Mechanicsville, Virginia, I came up with a list I call the 10 best perennials you’ve never heard of. Consider them when reworking garden areas in late summer and early fall. Some are for areas of full sun, some for shade, and most will work in areas of light shade.

There is no single source for all 10 of these, and some plants on this list will be easier to find than others. Some may not be available until early spring, but be patient, because these cultivated varieties are worth seeking out. The cost of multiple perennial plants can add up. There are ways to handle this: ■■ Tackle single, manageable areas of the garden once or twice a year. Don’t seek to transform the whole garden overnight. ■■ Do the work yourself, including lawn reduction, bed clearing and soil preparation in advance of planting. ■■ Buy the smallest sizes you can find, but make sure you space plants for their eventual girth, even if the planting looks thin for a year. Most perennials reach a mature size in three years. ■■ Weed regularly between growing plants. ■■ Look for end-of-season plant sales. ■■ Driving to a distant nursery can save on shipping costs and can make for a pleasant day trip. ■■ Native plant societies hold periodic sales with good prices on perennials, sedges and grasses.

Blue grama

ADRIAN HIGGINS / THE WASHINGTON POST

Perennials are an exciting aspect of horticulture because they are not only beautiful but provide shelter and food for wildlife.

Tricyrtis The tricyrtis or toad-lily is interesting on two counts. First, it blooms late, in September and October. Second, the flowers are strangely invisible until you study them, when they reveal themselves as extraordinarily exotic and orchidlike. Some varieties bloom in the leaf joints, others at the end of their arching stems. The variety Sinonome is one of the latter and is valued for its maroon markings on creamy white blossoms. Place a clump of tricyrtis at the edge of shade garden paths, where they can be admired. They grow to three feet and should be spaced 18 inches apart. Because they grow and appear late, they can be interplanted with other woodland perennials and small shrubs.

Oak sedge

ADRIAN HIGGINS / THE WASHINGTON POST

Sedges are low-growing, grasslike perennials that flourish in difficult situations such as dry shade or wet soil, depending on type. Most prefer partial to full shade. Grown in masses, they make excellent alternatives to such boring groundcovers as English ivy, liriope or pachysandra. They can also be squeezed in between other herbaceous plants as textural highlights. I am partial to fine-leafed sedges that will adapt to dry conditions once established, such as the oak sedge, botanically Carex pensylvanica. The wispy plant is a fresh green and grows to about 10 inches.

A mild, moist climate is great for perennials, which provide a dynamic layer in the garden.

This is another fine-textured, native ornamental grass for full sun. Blue grama (Bouteloua gracilis) forms clumps of upright blades topped with strawcolored seed heads that age to brown-purple. They are held horizontally to the stem and quiver in the slightest breeze. The grass grows to about 15 inches and needs an open and well-drained location. Use it to edge paths, as filler or as an accent. Blonde Ambition is a showier variety.

Cranesbill Cranesbills, or hardy geraniums, have been gaining popularity over the past decade, but they deserve greater use in their attractive and unfussy role as fillers and ground covers, and work in areas of full afternoon sun or partial shade. I have had consistent success with a species named Geranium macrorrhizum and grow one named Ingwersen’s Variety. It has a muddy pink flower in late See PERENNIALS, Page D3

Program looking for historic barns to save Herald staff Got an old barn you think should be preserved? The state Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation is accepting applications for funding through the Heritage Barn Rehabilitation Grant Program. Established in 2007, the grant program assists with rehab projects designed to stabilize and preserve designated Heritage Barns across the state. Since the program’s inception, Heritage Barn Grant funding has provided assistance to the owners of 65 barns throughout the state. Grants are awarded through a competitive application process based on the historical significance of the barn, urgency of needed repairs and provision for long-term preservation. Priority is given to barns that remain in agricultural use. To be eligible

for listing in the Heritage Barn Register, barns must be over 50 years old and retain a significant degree of historic integrity. Historic agricultural structures listed in the Heritage Barn Register, the Washington Heritage Register or the National Register of Historic Places are eligible to receive grant funds. More than 600 barns are included in the state Heritage Barn Register. All nomination/application materials related to the Heritage Barn Register and the Heritage Barn Rehabilitation Grant Program can be downloaded at www.dahp.wa.gov/heritage-barn-register. Barn owners with questions about the program are encouraged to contact Chris Moore at 206624-9449 or at cmoore@preservewa.org. Grant applications are due Oct. 21, with grant awards slated to be announced in early 2016.

ANTIQUES & COLLECTIBLES | Kim and Terry Kovel

Wood artwork can no longer be neglected

lass, pottery, bronze, silver and of course, paper and canvas, are all used to make important, and often expensive, works of art. But wood has been somewhat neglected as art, although highly regarded for useful furniture. Eighteenth-century furniture was made with hand tools and decorated with carvings, inlay and the selection of attractive grain in the woods. The nineteenth century increased the amount of carved decoration. By the 1890s, there were Black Forest benches, tables, hall trees, and other furniture held by life-sized carved wooden bears. Twentieth-century craftsman and artist George Nakashima (19051990) made his unique wooden art furniture from slabs of wood. Wendell Castle (born 1932) made modern furniture, including a carved wooden coat and hat rack holding a wooden coat, and a park bench that appears to be growing from a tall tangle of vines. Artists today are using wood to make sculptures, statues, puzzle boxes and huge burl bowls that are sold at art galleries, not furniture stores. Now is the time to start collecting wooden art. There are artists making everything from realistic to abstract and science fiction inspired carvings. Go to art shows, or just browse the internet and find the carvings that you admire. Trust your taste. There are caricatures, humorous figures, life-size statues and tiny imaginary animals. A talented Italian artist, Livio De Marchi, makes life-like carvings of everyday items. He leaves

them unpainted so the wood grain and defects will show. A golf bag with six clubs, a single piece of carved wood, sold for $3,240 at a recent Skinner auction in Boston. Q: I have two gunpowder dispensers that I believe are from the Civil War era and belonged to a relative who fought in that war. One is made of copper and the other of leather. Both are in great condition and work well. One still has grains of gunpowder in it. Is there any monetary or historical value to these items? I’m considering donating them to a museum. A: First, get rid of the gunpowder! Old explosives can be dangerous. You can take the powder flask to a gun range and ask them to dispose of the residual powder. Reenactors and people who collect Civil War memorabilia might be interested in your powder flasks, especially if you can give them information about your ancestor and his service in the Civil War. Powder flasks that are signed or have decoration sell for more than plain powder flasks. A signed copper Civil War powder flask sold for $47, and another for $135 recently. Leather powder flasks with historically significant decoration sell for $100 or more. Q: I recently bought a bankers chair by W.B. Moses & Sons dated 1914. There doesn’t seem to be much information about their furniture. What can you tell me about the company and its furniture? A: W.B. Moses opened a furniture store in Washington, D.C., in the 1860s. Business expanded and by 1898 W.B. Moses & Sons

occupied several buildings, including shops and manufacturing facilities. The company redecorated some of the rooms in the White House in 1881, supplying new carpeting, drapes, and furniture. Value of your chair, $50-$100. Q: I received this lamp from my mother-in-law. It’s brass, has a pierced corrugated frame over a burner, and a small plaque on the front that has a wolf and reads “Permissible Miners Flame Safety Lamp, Safety Lamp Co. of America.” It also has a tag with the number 28 and a hook for hanging. Can you tell me a little about its history and value? A: You have a coal miner’s lamp, made by the Wolf Safety Lamp Co. of America of Brooklyn, N.Y. Until the development of safe electric lamps in the early 1900s, coal miners used flame lamps to provide light. Lamps with open flames could ignite flammable gas or dust and cause explosions, so safety lamps were invented to enclose the flame. Before World War I, Wolf was a distributor for safety lamps made in Germany. After the war, the company made lamp tools and accessories and their own safety lamps that burned naphtha, vegetable oil and carbide. Wolf operated until the 1960s. Your lamp burned a mixture of carbide and water. The “permissible” engraved on the lamp means it passed safety tests and was approved by the U.S. Bureau of Mines (in 1921), and the hang tag represents the miner’s number. Your lamp is from the early 1920s and is worth about $100.

Is your home ready for the winter? Fall doesn’t just involve colorful leaves, rainy days and halloween candy; it’s also the time to close the pool, caulk windows, clean gutters and the list goes on. In fact, preparing for fall involves a great many jobs. Here are a few of them. Put away deck furniture and barbecue, unless it’s set up to be used year round. Drain and store garden hoses and turn off any outside taps. Clean gutters and make sure they drain properly. Inspect the roof. Make sure skylights, roof shingles and seals on chimneys or vents are in good condition. Do any necessary repairs. Have your chimney cleaned and your fireplace inspected to prevent fires. Make sure smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are working well, and then change the batteries (they should be replaced every year). Examine the foundations and the exterior siding, and fix any cracks to prevent water or air infiltration. Check the slope of the ground and make any modifications to ensure rainwater drains away from your home. Check the sump pump to avoid any unpleasant surprises during heavy rainfall or the spring melt. Check your deck or balcony. Make sure railings and

GET READY FOR WINTER

Spring isn’t the only time of year to do a thorough cleanup; preparing your home for the winter also requires some cleaning chores. Hardware

steps are safe, and replace rotten or damaged planks. Check if the deck is adequately lit and take advantage of the mild weather to replace bulbs in outdoor fixtures. Inspect doors and windows. To keep cold and damp from entering the house, replace damaged seals and weather stripping. Remove window air conditioners. Remove bug screens to prevent condensation and maximize the amount of winter sunlight entering your home. Check all outlets (central vacuum, drier, range hood, etc.) and make sure the vent covers close properly. Clean the filters of your air exchanger and heating system. Vacuum inside any furnace registers. Verify that the heating system is working properly. In fact, fall is the perfect time to have it checked out by a professional. Improve the air quality in your home by vacuuming the baseboard heaters, carpets, curtains and fabriccovered chairs. Test your water if you have a well. Clean the garbage floor catch basin. If it connects with the house plumbing, make sure the automatic valve closes properly.

Bulbs and more on September garden agenda

all is for planting. It is true, fall is an excellent time to plant just about anything. Go ahead and plant new shrubs and trees, perennials, vegetables, lawns and containers this time of year. They will get established in the fall and take off like a rocket come spring. Here is a list of other chores to consider this month. Lawns. There is no better month to plant a new lawn or resurrect an existing one. Aerate, de-thatch, re-seed or start all over but get it done this month. If you’re unsure how to proceed, consider attending a lawn care class at your local gardening center. Roses. We can usually squeeze one more round

This is mildew season and I have found it is helpful to hose off roses first thing in the morning. Keep the ground around roses clean as well. For extra protection, apply a fungicide like Bonide Rose Drench to the soil

around the base of the rose — no spraying required. Perennials. Garden centers have a lot of late blooming perennials in stock and it’s a great time to plug up a few holes in the garden. This is the ideal time to dig and divide large clumps of perennials like day lilies and irises. Share the extras with a neighbor. Always add some fertilizer and compost when you are planting. Liquinox Start is also helpful during transplant time and it’s cheap insurance. Bulbs. Believe it or not, now is the perfect time to plant spring bloomers like tulips, daffodils, crocus and hyacinths. There are also many other fine specialty and minor perennial

bulbs available, most of which will naturalize and never have to be dug again. Buy them early while the selection is at its best and don’t forget to plant them. I hate finding bags of shriveled bulbs in my basement in April. Veggies. I just tore out my beans and zucchini and beets and now I have room for some cool-season crops like peas, broccoli, cabbage, lettuce, carrots, beets and garlic. Be sure and replenish the soil with EB Stone compost and organic fertilizer. Consider constructing a cloche (this is just a fancy word for a temporary greenhouse) to protect your veggies from a hard freeze. A frost fabric which will work too.

Containers. I seem to repeat myself every year but we’ve come a long way from just thinking of annuals when designing our pots and baskets. In addition to winter pansies, dusty miller and flowering cabbage and kale, there is a huge pallet of plant material that is appropriate for late-summer planting into containers. Herbs, grasses, evergreen perennials and small conifers are all finding their way into beautiful winter containers. Think of using foliage and texture rather than just flowers and don’t forget to stuff a few bulbs underneath the plants while you are at it. Containers planted in September will

Perennials: Put these on your nursery shopping list Calamint Montrose White

From Page D1

April and May. It works as a ground cover in partial shade and will take dry conditions once established. In shadier beds, a coarser native species named the spotted cranesbill (Geranium maculatum) is a sturdy choice, with lavender blooms throughout May.

The calamint (Calamintha nepeta) is an aromatic, ornamental mint that calls to mind the gray-leafed, blue-flowered mounds of the related catmints of early summer, except the calamint produces masses of small white blossoms all summer long. It draws a host of pollinating insects and hummingbirds. The variety Montrose White corrects a couple of disadvantages of other calamints: It is somewhat compact, though can still spread to three feet, and the flowers are sterile, so it doesn’t seed about. It grows in full sun or partial shade but does require free-draining soil, which is especially important during winter dormancy. Use calamint as a filler in a sunny border, as an edging plant along paths (for its aroma) or in a container.

Barrenwort Barrenwort — often called by its botanical name, Epimedium — is another perennial that is gaining steam and should be in every garden with light to heavy shade. Its earlyspring blooms are delicate and interesting. (For good display they rely on the gardener removing the previous year’s foliage by March.) But the real value of this plant is its clean and lovely mounded clumps of heart-shaped leaves. Its other virtue is that it is one of the few perennials that will adapt to dry shade, though it will take longer to reach a good size (four years or so) in such a location than in the optimum conditions of richer but well-drained soil.

Prairie dropseed Prairie dropseed (Sporobolus heterolepis) is a soft, mounding grass that remains fresh and green until the fall, when it turns a beautiful shade of burnished orange. In high summer, its clumps are topped with a haze of flowering stems that perfume the air with a scent reminiscent of bruised cilantro. It can be planted as

The perennial called toad-lily adds interest at the tail end of summer, blooming late in September and October.

a filler or accent in a sunny bed. It takes three to four years to reach its mature size of three feet high and two feet across.

Yellow false indigo False indigo (Baptisia australis) is a shrubby perennial that makes a fine addition to the garden, with gray-green leaves and spikes of lupinelike blooms, a deep indigo blue, that appear in May on plants that are already

three to four feet high. The yellow false indigo is another species (Baptisia sphaericarpa), but it is smaller and tidier and is covered in shorter spikes of bright yellow blooms in late spring. A number of varieties have been introduced, including the particularly floriferous Screaming Yellow. Use it singly or in small groups as a filler plant or accent, in full sun to light shade. It won’t work well in moist soil.

Slimleaf ironweed Iron Butterfly Common New York ironweed is a tall and somewhat rangy wildflower of damp meadows that is valued for its sprays of purple flowers in August and September. Slimleaf ironweed is another species (Vernonia lettermannii) and grows to about three feet in height and spread. In late summer, it is smothered in small purple flowers that

are magnets for butterflies. Until then, it looks tidy and compact, with dark, finetextured foliage that makes it a great foil for other perennials. Diblik pairs it with prairie dropseed in a hot dry setting. Iron Butterfly is a selection that is more compact and densely flowered, growing about three feet high and two feet across. As with blue grama, vernonia needs a sunny location.

This is a handsome midsize native grass valued for showy seed heads that provide ornament from summer into fall, when the foliage turns a bronze color. Its botanic name is Deschampsia cespitosa. The stalks move in the breeze, giving a kinetic quality to the grass. Goldtau (German for “golden dew”) is a variety that was selected for its more compact habit and the yellow cast to its inflorescences. It grows to 24 inches with a spread of about 30 inches and should be used as an accent grass or in drifts in a larger border.

Father-to-be upset his child is wrong sex

DAILY CROSSWORD

Carolyn Hax is away. In her absence, we are offering readers’ favorites from her archive. Hi, Carolyn: I recently learned we are pregnant with our third baby, the same gender as the other two. Husband is very disappointed that we aren’t having his gender preference, and I am, too, a bit, but mostly trying to stay positive. Husband went from being super-excited about the pregnancy, and suggesting I “take it easy” and get pedicures, offering to cook, etc., to standard basic help around the house. He never asks how I am feeling or offers to step up his help. We have good communication and he’s shared that he feels like less of a man. I am glad he felt comfortable to share but it is very hurtful, and it makes me wish I weren’t pregnant at all. We’ve talked to a counselor who suggested we discuss the possibility of a FOURTH child, which I am unwilling to do. So now we both just feel stuck and miserable. Please help? — Gender Disappointment Has no one uttered the words “grow the [erf] up”? Please know (and page through my archives to confirm) that I believe in validating feelings. They are what they are and pretending they aren’t never works.

CAROLYN HAX TELL ME ABOUT IT But sometimes they’re so wrongheaded, selfish and destructive that they have to be called out as such. As in, “I feel for you — I was nursing a little gender preference, too. “But look at how you’re acting on these feelings: You’re generally and plainly not treating this baby as a good thing anymore. And that’s BS. This is a person. OUR person. No less deserving of our love and excitement than a person of the other sex would have been. “It’s time to get fully onboard with this child. I will not stand by as you treat her (right?) — and now me — as less-than. “If you need help, I’ll support that. Being ‘more of a man,’ in my eyes, is finding joy in fatherhood without regard for the sex of the child.” The counselor has me banging my head. What if the fourth child

is the “wrong” sex again? Or the “right” sex — and the prior three get to witness the kind of love their father is capable of, just not for them? That’s trading a can of worms for a crate of them. Re: Gender: My sister-in-law was the second of four daughters born to a career military officer. When someone asked her father if he hoped to “finally get that boy” when her mom was pregnant with the fourth, he said, “Oh I’d be thrilled with another little girl; we love our girls.” I am sure he wanted a son. But his daughter heard him say this, and now as she nears age 70 it still matters to her. — Anonymous Beautiful, thank you.

Mom wants to break the cycle of cold parenting Dear Abby: I’m a 41-year-old mother of three. I was raised in a good household, but we didn’t have a lot of love. My folks were strict, straight to the point and good providers, but I don’t remember many hugs and kisses, or moments of real expressions of emotion or intimacy between them. Now I realize I am the same way with my kids. I’m very matter of fact, strict and too serious. I love my children more than life itself. But how do I become more loving? I don’t know how to play or be silly. My hubby tells me it bothers him sometimes when he’s trying to tell me how much he loves me and I make a joke or say something acerbic. The problem is, my daughter is 9 and she is turning into me and my mother. She’s not frivolous, like a little girl should be. She’s serious, studious and almost cold in her assessment of everyone around her. It worries me. How do I combat this? How do I change myself so I can help change her, before it’s too late? — Bad Role Model In Missouri Dear Bad Role Model: You have already taken the first step by recognizing the pattern that is being repeated. Another step in the right direction would be to discuss your discomfort with expressing emotion with a licensed therapist, because it has affected not only your daughter but also your relationship with your husband. While a therapist may not be able to help you “be silly,” a good one can offer suggestions on how to become more playful and communicate your feelings more openly. However, I would RIP HAYWIRE

caution you about one thing you said in your letter. Not all 9-year-olds are “frivolous.” Many of them are serious and studious and that’s a plus. If she “judges” contemporaries to the point of being sarcastic or cruel, she should be corrected before she’s perceived as a bully or turns herself into an outcast. I have always abided by the philosophy that if you think something nice about someone else, you should share it. You might suggest that to her. Dear Abby: My wife and I are in our 60s and have been married more than 40 years. It hasn’t always been great, but we’ve made it. Recently, while going through some old boxes in the basement, I ran across her diary and discovered that she had an affair while we were engaged. This has left me depressed, hurt and feeling very down. Should I confront her with my findings? — Hurting In Ohio Dear Hurting: If you feel the need to bring this up after 40 years, then rather than let it fester and ruin the next 40, tell your wife what you have found. However, before you do that, remember diaries are supposed to be private, and you will have to explain why you took it upon yourself to read something that was never meant for you to see.

TELEVISION Q&A

At least 1 person watched ‘Weird Loners’ Q: I was wondering about the TV series “Weird Loners” on Fox. Will it be renewed? It was great to see a TV series where the main characters’ last name was Polish and the same as mine — Lewandowski. And they even pronounced it correctly. A: Fox ended the series after its little-watched, sixepisode first season. Q: We really enjoyed “Aloha Vet” on Nat Geo WILD and saw recently that Dr. Scott Sims from the show had died.

However, we have seen nothing about what happened. We would really like to know. A: The veterinarian on the Hawaiian island of Kauai died in late July after a two-month battle with bladder cancer, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported. “Sims was popular on Kauai, but he treated animals across the state, flying to other islands in a small plane he built himself,” said the newspaper. Q: Around 45 years ago, I had the pleasure of

seeing a movie from Israel called “Casablan,” a takeoff of “West Side Story” only with Hebrew actors and dialogue. I was told it was also made in English. Could you find out if MGM still has this film so it would be available to show on MGM HD? A: MGM originally distributed the movie in the U.S. in the early ‘70s but I am not sure which rights it still owns. It was produced by Menachem Golan, who also directed, and his business partner Yoram Globus, and reportedly

made in both a Hebrew and English version. You may want to look for it as “Kazablan,” as the title is spelled on a DVD available from SISU Home Entertainment, self-described “marketer and distributor of Israeli and Jewish video, audio, book and multimedia properties.” The DVD is in Hebrew with English subtitles. If your local retailer cannot get it, sites selling the DVD include sisuent. com and amazon.com. — Rich Heldenfels, Akron Beacon Journal

Pandora to mark 10 years with ad-free day

CBS shuts down ‘Under the Dome’

Pandora will celebrate its 10-year anniversary with a day free of advertisements. The streaming service said Tuesday it will launch Listener Love Day on Sept. 9 for 24 hours without ads. Pandora currently offers a free subscription with ads and an ad-free subscription for $5 a month. Pandora founder Tim Westergren said Listener Love Day is “a celebration of a decade of connecting music fans to the artists that matter to them.” Associated Press

Good news for the people of fictional Chester’s Mill is bad news for fans of “Under the Dome.” CBS announced Tuesday it is bringing an end to the summer series after three seasons. The science-fiction drama, based on Stephen King’s 2009 novel, will conclude in a Sept. 10 finale, in which the impenetrable bubble that suddenly fell on the small town will finally be lifted and the mysteries of its origins revealed — but not before one final, fatal showdown for the residents of Chester’s Mill. “Under the Dome” was a ratings smash when it premiered in 2013, attracting an average same-day audience of 11 million viewers and millions more

via DVR. CBS also struck a groundbreaking deal with Amazon that made episodes of the series available to stream four days after their broadcast debut, allowing the network to offset some of the considerable production cost. The series is executive produced by King, who also wrote the secondseason premiere, and Steven Spielberg. “ER” writer Neal Baer serves as showrunner and executive producer. The initial success of “Under the Dome,” which aired 13 episodes each season, encouraged CBS to try its hand at other shorter-run genre series during the summer, such as the Halle Berry vehicle “Extant” and the James

Patterson adaptation “Zoo.” “‘Dome’s’ event storytelling and multi-platform business model paved the way for more original summer programming,” CBS Entertainment Chair Nina Tassler said in a statement. “We’re excited to present the final chapter in Chester’s Mill as the story comes full circle, with the dome coming down as dramatically as it went up.” But ratings for “Under the Dome” have ebbed considerably since its early days: The third-season premiere in June brought in just 6.25 million sameday viewers, and later episodes have dipped below the 5 million mark. — Meredith Blake, Los Angeles Times

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Thursday, September 3, the 246th day of 2015. There are 119 days left in the year. Today’s highlight: On September 3, 1783, representatives of the United States and Britain signed the Treaty of Paris, which officially ended the Revolutionary War. On this date: In 1189, England’s King Richard I (the LionHearted) was crowned in Westminster Abbey. In 1658, Oliver Cromwell, the Lord Protector of England, died in London; he was succeeded by his son, Richard. In 1868, the Japanese city of Edo was renamed Tokyo. In 1914, Cardinal Giacomo Della Chiesa became pope; he took the name Benedict XV. In 1923, the United States and Mexico resumed diplomatic relations. In 1939, Britain, France, Australia and New Zealand declared war on Germany, two days after the Nazi invasion of Poland, In 1940, Artie Shaw and his Gramercy Five recorded “Summit Ridge Drive” and “Special Delivery Stomp” for RCA Victor. In 1951, the television soap opera “Search for

Tomorrow” made its debut on CBS. In 1967, the original version of the television game show “What’s My Line?,” hosted by John Charles Daly, broadcast its final episode after more than 17 years on CBS. In 1976, America’s Viking 2 lander touched down on Mars to take the first close-up, color photographs of the planet’s surface. In 1989, a Cubana de Aviacion jetliner crashed after takeoff in Havana, killing all 126 aboard and 45 people on the ground. In 1995, the online auction site eBay was founded in San Jose, California, by Pierre Omidyar under the name “AuctionWeb.” In 2005,President George W. Bush ordered more than 7,000 active duty forces to the Gulf Coast as his administration intensified efforts to rescue Katrina survivors and send aid to the hurricane-ravaged region in the face of criticism it did not act quickly enough. U.S. Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist died in Arlington, Virginia, at age 80, after more than three decades on the Supreme Court. Associated Press
